Chapter 955 -196: Opening of the Ancient Hall_2

“If there truly exists an Immortal Divine Road, I will come to take you.”

Li Hao said.

Feng Boping heard these words and couldn’t help but laugh heartily, replying, “Then, I’ll be waiting.”

Li Hao also chuckled. The two refrained from being overly sentimental and clinked their wine gourds together, pairing it with some fine food, feeling carefree and joyous.

As the time for the Ancient Hall drew nearer, many acquaintances sent messages of concern to Li Hao.

There was Zhan Tan from the Flower Travel Association, the Turquoise Pool from the Sword Ancestor Holy Land, and Ye Ancestor, Green Ancestor, Qing Ying—all of whom had no opportunity to venture to the Ancient Hall but understood the perilous nature of this journey.

“I will wait for your return.”

Lin Qingyue transmitted a message to Li Hao through the Saint Token.

Li Hao glanced at it; this journey was fraught with both fortune and misfortune, and he dared not take it lightly.

Without replying, Li Hao stored the token away, waiting for the Source Ancestor to send word for the assembly before departing for the Ancient Hall.

“Outside the Little Thousand World, it seems the incarnation of the Source Ancestor has come personally to receive you.”

“Besides the Source Ancestor, there are other Supreme Saints—they’ve come in person.”

Feng Boping entered Li Hao’s courtyard, sighed with admiration, and said with a smile, “It seems they treasure you greatly before you open the Ancient Hall, ensuring nothing happens. But afterward, you better be cautious.”

“Hmm.”

Li Hao nodded and bid farewell to Elder Feng.

Lie Sky Saint had also arrived outside the Theft Heavenly Sacred Land. Li Hao invited him to travel together, but Lie Sky Saint shook his head, “Too many eyes are on you. Go on your own; I will travel alone.”

Feng Boping, who came to see Li Hao off, rolled his eyes at her—he knew she had no intention of going; her words were just to deceive Li Hao.

Li Hao felt a bit puzzled, his expression slightly strange as he looked at them but chose not to ask further, merely saying, “Alright, I’ll scout the path first.”

After bidding farewell to the two, Li Hao flew out of the Little Thousand World.

Beyond the Little Thousand World’s silent void, the aura of numerous Saints suddenly revealed itself—among them, the most dazzling were the Mixed Heaven Saint, Medical Saint, and Holy Master of Law, all Supreme Saints.

The Saints of All Heavens seemed to have gathered outside the Little Thousand World, waiting there.

“Even Supreme Saints have come?”

“It seems they are taking this Ancient Hall event very seriously, fearing any unexpected changes.”

“After all, he’s the only one who holds the Sixth Extreme Realm. Without him, who knows how many years we’d still need to wait.”

Many Saints had grave expressions. This matter concerned All Heavens—if the Immortal Divine Road were truly to be opened, it would touch broader realms beyond imagination.

“Are you ready?”

The incarnation of the Source Ancestor approached Li Hao, his expression still carrying a warm smile.

Li Hao nodded.

His gaze swept across the crowd, seeing the Sword Saint, Sword Master, and Literary Saint among them.

“Let’s go.”

The Holy Master of Law glanced at the time, speaking coldly.

Then he proceeded ahead without hesitation.

The Mixed Heaven Saint gave Li Hao a brief look, the corner of his mouth curling slightly. He could sense the fragrance from the Meat Pill growing richer.

Though he could also tell that Li Hao had not yet passed the Earth Tribulation and was still a One Disaster Saint, it was already potent enough.

“Beware of Mixed Heaven.”

A voice transmitted into Li Hao’s mind from the Medical Saint, who then glanced at Li Hao and turned away as though the two were hardly acquainted.

Li Hao remained composed. Despite knowing the Mixed Heaven Saint might target him heavily this time, he felt confident enough now to preserve his life under a Supreme Saint’s assault.

Led by the Supreme Saints, the group of Saints followed mightily. Li Hao was encircled at the center, like a star surrounded by moons, crossing through spatial fissures. Before long, they arrived at the Heavenly Origin Realm in the Upper Three Realms.

Here, some Saints awaited, having not gone to the Little Thousand World to keep watch on Li Hao.

Seeing so many Supreme Saints escorting Li Hao, they couldn’t help but furrow their brows slightly—such prominence, unparalleled in All Heavens.

But they understood that these Supreme Saints were worried about this key being jeopardized.

Li Hao’s gaze fell on a figure sitting not far from the Source Ancestor’s original self—a Divine King, clad in resplendent crimson-gold armor, exuding a terrifying aura like molten lava.

Beside the Divine King sat Ying Xiaoxiao and several Saints of the Divine Clan.

Previously, Li Hao had taken Ying Xiaoxiao away, and the two parted ways upon returning to the Little Thousand World. Now, as a Saint of the Divine Clan, Ying Xiaoxiao was naturally present for the Ancient Hall.

As Li Hao arrived, Ying Xiaoxiao’s gaze immediately turned to him, filled with worry.

“Watch out for the Ancestor.”

A voice from Ying Xiaoxiao echoed in Li Hao’s mind.

He paused slightly, looking toward the woman, seeing faint sorrow and anxiety in her bright eyes.

Li Hao’s expression remained unchanged. Without asking further, he walked straight to the Source Ancestor’s original self.

At this moment, Li Hao sensed a familiar yet subtle aura, turning his gaze to the crowd’s edge where the Star Saint sat, staring coldly at him.

Li Hao raised an eyebrow slightly, surprised the Star Saint hadn’t perished—an existence second only to Supreme Saints, evidently possessing unknown life-saving measures.

“Since everyone’s here, let’s proceed.”

The Divine King spoke outright, seeming too impatient to wait a moment longer.

The Source Ancestor gave a slight nod, rose, and said, “Let’s move.”

He raised his hand and tore open a fissure—a gateway aligned with one of the spatial cracks, spanning an incredible distance.

He glanced at Li Hao and was the first to step in.

Following him were several Saints from the Source Ancestor Sacred Land, all entering after him.

As Xiao Tianyu passed by Li Hao, he glanced at him briefly before lowering his head and stepping into the fissure.

The Holy Master of Law followed closely behind. Beside him stood Qiu Tianlu, now a Saint himself. He looked at Li Hao, his expression somewhat solemn.

Just like Xiao Tianyu, while his past life as a Saint merged into this lifetime’s memories, the fierce competition with Li Hao in the same era left indelible impressions.

As the group sequentially crossed through the fissure, Li Hao disregarded the Star Saint and stepped into the rift. Emerging on the other side, he found himself in the midst of a starlit expanse.

Suspended in the starry void was the Ancient Hall, veiled in rolling Thunder Fire.

The space outside the Ancient Hall seemed forbidden ground—Li Hao’s Divine Sense dissolved instantly upon nearing it, as though touching a silent abyss that crushed all trace.

Li Hao fixed his gaze. Long had he heard of this Ancient Hall, yet finally stood witness.

“It is said this was once the dwelling of Immortal Divine beings. Be cautious not to touch anything recklessly, lest you trigger mechanisms beyond control.”

The Mo Family’s Supreme Saint advised.

The Source Ancestor said nothing as he approached the Ancient Hall’s entrance, where a starry pathway of laws shaped by the Dao was present.

Upon stepping forth, lightning enveloped him momentarily before quickly dissipating.

Proceeding swiftly, it wasn’t long before he reached the Ancient Hall’s doors.

“This minor challenge shouldn’t trouble you.”

The Holy Master of Law cast a glance at Li Hao before darting toward the Ancient Hall.

Li Hao noticed the starry stairway was not easy to traverse but posed little threat to someone like him.

When the Supreme Saints had entered, Li Hao followed and ascended the stairs. As he progressed, waves of Law Power surged forward—a formidable Dao Power, seemingly the manifestation of Saint-level Dao techniques in attack form.

But when the force touched Li Hao’s body, it dissolved softly like a breeze, veering away.

His physique stood resolute, like an unyielding pillar confronting the oncoming laws.

Li Hao understood this to be an innate ability of Wen Dao Extreme Realm—immune to all Dao.

The sight of Li Hao passing through the starry stairway with ease, akin to the Supreme Saints, deepened the seriousness in many Saints’ eyes.

Soon, other Saints followed suit, stepping onto the stairway, where violent storms of law erupted—manifesting strange phenomena across the path.

The Sword Saint wielded his blade to cleave through seas of flame to the Ancient Hall, while the Sword Master’s Sword Domain enveloped him, guarding his advance securely.

Other Saints deployed their techniques to ascend the stairway, but many ordinary One Disaster Saints struggled considerably, unleashing tremendous Incense Fire Power merely to scrape through.

At this moment, some Saints finally realized—the youth, though also a One Disaster Saint, was an extraordinary anomaly.

While others wrestled with the stairway, the Source Ancestor and other Supreme Saints wasted no time. When Li Hao arrived, they pushed open the Ancient Hall’s door, revealing what seemed to be a new, untouched world.

Above the Ancient Hall’s sky loomed a separate expanse of stars, glimmering like the Milky Way.

The Source Ancestor and the others, having explored previously, navigated skillfully to lead the way.

Within the Ancient Hall stretched an extensive corridor, its end marked by a ruined high platform, riddled with cracks.
