Chapter 201 Before the Breakthrough and the Path to Becoming a God with Incense
Xu Yuanxin had never expected that Li Hao, who he had been criticizing not long ago, would suddenly appear in front of him.
The other party was ambushed and scattered in southern Xinjiang. Xuntian pursued them relentlessly, intending to kill them all.
Xuntian suffered a loss at the hands of Daxia and intended to take revenge, and he knew it.
The Ninth Prince and Prince Ming'an were the best targets for revenge, and he gloated over it for a few days.
He knew his father's attitude very well. The Wandering Dragon Stone was his father's desire. Now that it fell into Xuntian's hands, he would definitely try his best to get it back.
Using Li Hao and his group to lure out Xuntian's people, it could also weaken the power of Prince Ming'an, the enemy of the Eighth Prince. This was the best.
He had never thought that he would be involved, and Xuntian had no need to make things more difficult for himself.
This attitude of not intervening for the time being would not make Xuntian dissatisfied. The only ones who were dissatisfied were the victims Li Hao and Prince Ming'an.
The identity of the other party was about to be revealed.
Therefore, when Xu Yuanxin guessed the identity of the other party, a storm was set off in his heart.
It was too sudden, and he was killed halfway.
After realizing the other party's identity, his cheeks moved, and after a moment, he squeezed out an ugly smile: "Brother Li, we are family."
"I am the son of the King of Zhennan, and I am the uncle of Prince Ming'an."
Li Hao looked at him, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face, which made Xu Yuanxin's heart tighten.
Li Hao said: "Didn't you just say that the King of Zhennan would let Xuntian attack us? How come he is now a family member?"
"Just now, I was just talking nonsense at the moment of life and death. You should understand." Xu Yuanxin responded hurriedly and then said:
"I usually admire you very much. My men all know that they often talk about you, the world's genius, and take you as an example to encourage me and the people around me."
Li Hao couldn't help but laugh when he heard this. He still trusted Tianji Pavilion. Tianji Pavilion described Xu Yuanxin as having an unusual hatred for geniuses.
It was hard for him to imagine that the other party would praise him and not scold him, which was considered his amazing personality charm.
"In this case, we should get closer to each other." Li Hao dragged Xu Yuanxin and went to the old turtle's cave. The Taoist of Beiling left a trace of cleaning and wiped out everything.
………
Plop!
Xu Yuanxin's cultivation was sealed, and now he was just an ordinary person. He staggered and fell to the ground, fell like a dog, and a lot of dust entered his mouth.
This made his heart burn with anger and burned his mind.
One after another, the scrutinizing eyes fell on him, making his cheeks red, and the sense of shame in his heart rose to the extreme.
He struggled to get up from the ground, but he didn't dare to show it.
"Hey, why does he look a little familiar?" Prince Ming'an pondered, waved his hand casually, and the breeze blew, and the dust on Xu Yuanxin's face disappeared.
"Ah...it turns out to be Prince Yuanxin..." Prince Ming'an was stunned, surprised and happy, and hugged Xu Yuanxin tightly:
"The last time we met was five or six years ago, and the prince is still so dashing."
"Your Highness Ming'an?" Xu Yuanxin vaguely recognized him and said happily:
"Look, I don't know what misunderstanding has arisen. Li Hao actually ambushed me halfway. I'm afraid my guards have been wiped out at this moment."
"But I believe this is all a misunderstanding. I will explain it to Daxia in person. It won't cause any trouble to you. These are all trivial matters. Please help me solve them quickly."
He has been in Southern Xinjiang for a long time and doesn't know some of the details that happened in the Central Region and the Northern Border. Like most people, he subconsciously regards Li Hao as Prince Ming'an's man.
Now that he saw Li Hao's immediate superior, he suddenly felt a bit like he was reporting on someone.
At the same time, it also hinted to Prince Ming'an that Li Hao had committed a serious crime by ambushing him and killing all his personal guards. If he complained to Daxia, Emperor Xia would definitely give him an explanation.
Let him go quickly, and this matter can still be discussed.
However, he did not notice the strange looks of the people around him.
The young man not far away grinned and whispered something to the girl next to him, looking at him with gloating.
The man with a ghost face on the other side looked scary, with a mouthful of yellow teeth shining, and seemed to be laughing at him.
During the time with Li Hao and Ming'an, the formation master and the alchemist and others understood who was the real leader in this team.
This person actually tried to report to Prince Ming'an, he was really tired of living.
"So that's it..." Ming'an glanced at Li Hao, who was holding a hideous black-skinned monster, and then turned his head with a warm smile on his face.
Pah!
Xu Yuanxin suddenly widened his eyes and looked at Prince Ming'an in astonishment. His cheeks quickly rose, and a clear slap mark appeared.
"You stupid pig-like thing, dare to threaten me, it's not certain whether you can get out alive, even if you can survive, what's wrong with killing your guards?" Ming'an sneered, "Not to mention your guards, even the guards of the King of Zhennan were all killed by him."
He pointed at Li Hao, "I support him too!"
It is unknown how much truth and sincerity there is in these words.
At least, Ming'an and Li Hao are bound together, and he has to bear the responsibility.
Xu Yuanxin's face was dazed, but he heard Ming'an continue to scold: "Six years ago, you went to the Central Region. I was just an adult at that time, and you relied on your seniority to order me around."
"Do you really think of yourself as a role?"
"How can there be such a fool as you in the Great Xia royal family?" Ming An shouted, making Xu Yuanxin's face pale.
On the other side, clouds and mists were rising around Li Hao, and no one could see what he was doing.
In the clouds and mists, the tightly sealed demon baby still looked ferocious, as if he wanted to escape.
But the Taoist of Beiling had already put down layers of restraints.
"This is directly raised by Gu..." Li Hao looked at the demon baby.
This was a situation he had predicted when he learned that the reincarnated immortal gods existed.
These reincarnated immortal gods who have not yet grown up are likely to be raised as weapons.
The demon baby in front of him is a living example, with almost no self-thinking, and no one knows what means he used.
Then, a Yuanzhu appeared in Li Hao's hand. This was one of the two Yuanzhu he cut off from Qi Linjun a long time ago.
Now there is only this one left.
"It just so happens that I still have some fragments of the Three Life Stone on me. I should ask Si Chen to make some of this stuff for me." Li Hao thought to himself.
He was able to adjust the Yuanling fragments in Yuanhe at will before because the other party had transformed into a Yin God and was completely under his control.
Under normal circumstances, he still needs to take the Yuanling Pearl to extract the Yuanling fragments from other people.
Then, the Yuanling Pearl floated to the center of the demon baby's eyebrows, accompanied by a ray of faint light, and the Yuanling Pearl trembled for a while, and then gradually turned into a light golden glow.
During this process, the three-headed and six-armed features of the demon baby gradually faded, and the blank look was restored.
His breath declined, and the black flame attached to his body became vigorous and began to burn his body.
His body gradually became dry. Li Hao was about to raise his hand and frowned slightly, but he saw the empty eyes of the demon baby. Under such pain, the other party did not react at all.
He saw at a glance that the other party's Yuanshen had long been exhausted, without his own thoughts, just a puppet who could not feel pain, let alone other emotions.
Even without this demon flame, he would not live long. He was able to survive before because he relied on the Yuanling fragments on his body to support him.
He withdrew his hand, shook his head, and watched the demon baby dissipate in front of him. What's the point of saving it? The owner of this body has died long ago.
A wisp of ghost floated out, Li Hao raised his hand and wiped it, and a strange power attached to the confused Yuanshen, and then it was swallowed by reincarnation.
Now, the underworld is incomplete, and it is difficult for him to guarantee what the reincarnated people will become in the next life.
But as the master of the underworld, at least he has some privileges and can have a little influence.
Let him be born in a wealthy family in the next life, and his qualifications will be better.
Then, he did not hesitate, picked up the Yuanzhu, put it on his chest, and crushed it, trying to draw the power in it.
Then, wisps of light attached to Li Hao's body like smoke, and then slowly penetrated into it.
This is a strange change, his skin began to swell.
Under the skin, it seemed that there were small snakes wandering, and finally gathered on his shoulder blades and back, bulging meat bags.
"…Third Prince…" A faint call sounded in his ears. Li Hao's eyes were clear, and the Fengdu seal in his soul shone brightly, erasing the memories and influences attached to the soul fragments.
Then, his breath began to rise, and his shoulder blades and the meat bags on his back became more and more swollen.
Finally, with a puff, Li Hao felt a sharp pain all over his body, and his vision became extremely strange.
All directions were under his attention. In the past, he could do it with his perception, but he didn't really see it.
Four arms stretched out from behind, the blood on them quickly evaporated, the wounds healed, and the six arms were natural, with golden patterns and symbols on them. It was the product of the fusion of the Wanfa Holy Body with them.
The three heads seemed to be born there, with blazing flames burning in their eyes, and the fiery eyes scanned everything.
It was not abrupt, nor ugly, but rather had a strange beauty.
Li Hao stretched his body and felt the surging power in his body. It was worthy of being a well-known great supernatural power. The increase in strength was beyond his imagination.
These were not the evolved Dharma arms and heads. They were not supernatural powers themselves, but Li Hao's limbs, so the three pairs of eyes could use the Fiery Eyes and Golden Pupils at the same time.
The six arms enjoyed the power of the All-Fa Holy Body at the same time. If it was an evolved Dharma arm, it would not have this ability.
And the power of such a fusion in the battle was not a simple one plus one. It can even be said that his entire strength was raised to a higher level on the spot.
All around, everyone was stunned and looked at this "monster" in the field.
Due to the burst of breath just now and various reasons in the fusion of the Yuanling fragments, the mist surrounding Li Hao had dissipated.
The most surprised one was Xu Yuanxin, his eyes widened, "This...this...isn't this the magical power of the spirit baby?"
"This is his ability as a reincarnated immortal god!"
"How...how did you master it? Where is the demon baby, did you eat him?"
"Too much nonsense." Taoist Beiling arrived late, he cleaned up the traces and even restored the damage caused by the battle.
Looking at Li Hao's special appearance, he also vaguely felt a sense of shock, which surprised him.
This feeling only came when Li Hao held the immortal weapon before, and it mainly came from that immortal weapon.
But now, this feeling comes from Li Hao himself.
There is no doubt that the opponent's strength has made great progress again.
This made him secretly astonished, wondering how Li Hao did it.
Li Hao restrained his three heads and six arms, and felt that his body was already full and could no longer bear more spiritual energy.
It was time to break through.
The soul was full and the body had reached its limit. It needed to evolve again to become stronger.
The Immortal Fire Realm was to ignite the immortal fire, burn the body, and open up a broader path of cultivation for the body and soul.
Thinking of this, he looked at Xu Yuanxin, who was the son of the King of Zhennan and should have mastered the secret technique that the King of Zhennan practiced.
He could use two means of breaking through the realm.
"Senior, I'm in trouble." Li Hao nodded slightly, "He's left to you."
"It's a small matter. Let me see how many restrictions there are in his soul first." The Taoist of Beiling walked towards Xu Yuanxin with a smile.
Xu Yuanxin didn't know that the other party was preparing to search his soul.
"You can't do this."
"I'm the son of the King of Zhennan."
"My father will fight you to the death."
He was terrified and retreated repeatedly, being forced into a corner.
Ming An sneered and stared at him coldly: "Fight to the death? I have been fighting him to the death for a long time."
"As the King of Zhennan in Daxia, he deliberately watched me being hunted by Xuntian. If he was willing to take some risks, I would have been safe long ago!"
Ming An hated this deeply. The King of Zhennan was still the Eighth Prince's man, and the two were not friends.
Xu Yuanxin's throat rolled, and he already understood that this group of people were not afraid of anything. Not to mention him, even if the King of Zhennan was there, the other party would not hesitate.
"Wait..." Xu Yuanxin saw the Taoist of Beiling smiling obscenely, and the withered big hand had touched his head, rough and cold. He hurriedly stopped:
"What do you want to know, I will tell you everything, you don't need to attack my soul, just ask directly."
He was scared and gave in directly, not wanting to endure that kind of pain.
Li Hao raised his eyebrows. Hey... I've met too many tough guys before, but I rarely meet such soft guys, especially those from the Great Xia royal family.
"Waste, how can the royal family have a soft egg like you." Ming An looked disgusted.
"The restriction in his soul is not simple. I can solve it, but I can't do it in a short time. It takes time." Taoist Beiling secretly transmitted the message.
Li Hao thought for a while, exchanged a subtle look with the people present, and then looked at him: "Are you willing to say it?"
"I am willing, willing..." Xu Yuanxin nodded hurriedly. In his hopeful eyes, Li Hao spoke again, "Well, sorry, I don't quite believe you."
"Senior Beiling, keep going." He looked at Taoist Beiling.
Xu Yuanxin looked desperate and terrified.
"Wait..."
At this moment, Ming An suddenly spoke up, "If we search for the Yuanshen, it will be difficult for us to explain in the end. After all, the dispute is just a dispute, and it won't really tear our faces apart."
"Just scare him, are you really going to do it?"
Sure enough...Sure enough, they are scaring me!
Xu Yuanxin's mood was up and down, and at this moment he hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, I am willing to say it seriously, it's all true. If you find something wrong, it's not too late to do it to me."
"He is right." Ming An joined in, "If you really find something wrong, do it."
"Give me a face." He took the initiative to add drama, secretly happy, under normal circumstances, he dared not say this.
Li Hao glanced at Ming An, all this was just a play for Xu Yuanxin, there was no such line in the script.
Li Hao wanted to break through the fairy fire realm, but if conditions permit, he also wanted to try to ignite the fairy fire with the dragon pattern golden fruit and the golden stone at the same time.
As long as you can resist, the longer the fairy fire burns, the stronger the tempering of the flesh.
Two top-grade fuels will naturally burn longer.
It takes time to crack the soul restriction on Xu Yuanxin, and he doesn't want to waste time, so he just puts on a show.
Give him some hope of survival, so that he can cooperate more.
Not just for that secret method, he can use the Xumi space to identify whether there is any problem with the secret method, but there are some other things that need to be asked.
"In this case, I will give you a face. If there is anything wrong with what you said, this senior will not hesitate to do it." Li Hao's voice was cold.
"First, I heard that the King of Zhennan has a secret technique called twins, do you know it?" asked the Taoist of Beiling.
"I know, I know." Xu Yuanxin tried to show his sincerity.
"Then write it down." The Taoist of Beiling threw a jade slip over and unlocked part of his restrictions.
Xu Zixin did not hesitate and began to engrave. About half an hour later, he respectfully presented the jade slip.
He had used this secret method before, but it was only useful when he was in the middle and low realms.
Even his father only used it when he broke through the Four Symbols Realm and the realms before, and never used it in the Passing Nether Realm.
He stopped at the Dragon Transformation Realm, and did not dare to use it in the Four Symbols Realm, for fear that he would be stuffed to death.
Taoist Beiling took it, took a curious look, and then handed it to Li Hao.
Li Hao put it into the Xumi Space--
[Twins (magic power): a special secret magic power that can use two realm-breaking objects to break through at the same time. 】
"Can you let this old man take a look? I'm also very curious." Old Turtle came over, and Li Hao had no objection and threw it over casually.
"This secret method is really simple..." Old Turtle took a look and was amazed, "It turns out that it uses its own blood to simulate a virtual body, and finally introduces it into the real body."
"The principle of this secret method is simple, but the most important thing is the strength of the practitioner's body and soul."
"I said..." Old Turtle stroked his white beard, "Are you sure you want to use this secret method? The strength of the body is secondary."
"This soul is too fragile. The strength of the fairy fire ignited by two top-level fuels may not be able to withstand the ordinary fairy fire initial stage."
"The strength of the body and soul?" Li Hao thought for a moment and chuckled: "Don't worry, senior."
Xu Yuanxin was surprised when he heard this. From what the other party meant, Li Hao actually wanted to use this secret method to ignite two fairy fire fuels at the same time when breaking through the fairy fire realm, and they were the top ones.
Isn't this courting death?
Even his father stopped at the Four Symbols Realm, and the Tongyou Realm already involved the soul because the soul was too fragile and could not withstand any tossing. If something unexpected happened, he would die on the spot.
He didn't dare to go to the fairy fire realm.
It would be best to burn him to death.
He was speculating maliciously in his heart, but heard Li Hao calling, "Prince?"
He shuddered, fearing that he had just smiled unconsciously.
"There are still some questions I want to ask you." Li Hao asked while pondering [Twins], and Ming An supplemented on the side.
This guy didn't know too much, at least he didn't get to know some core secrets, but he did get an unexpected news from him.
"The road to becoming a god through incense?" Li Hao frowned.
"Yes." Xu Yuanxin nodded hurriedly, "I devour the gods of heaven and earth, which is the prerequisite for this road to becoming a god through incense."
"My father has prepared the prerequisites. Now every city in Southern Xinjiang has built a Zhennan Wang Temple, and ordered people to kowtow every day."
"However, this road to becoming a god through incense seems to conflict with the orthodox path of cultivation, and my father has never made up his mind."
"It is said that after cultivation, like those gods of heaven and earth, you can control the power of an area."
"Who does this road to becoming a god through incense come from?" Li Hao asked in surprise.
"Eighth Prince."
Sure enough... Li Hao guessed that the essence of this incense-to-god path probably came from Xuntian.
The most important thing should be incense, and as the Great Xia King, he ruled countless people under his command, and was the best source of incense.
"He is worthy of death, worthy of death!" Ming An was furious, "Isn't this a division of territory!?"
Like the gods of heaven and earth, he completely controlled an area and worshipped it as a god. How could he be considered as the people of Great Xia? They all became believers of the King of Zhennan.
Li Hao shook his head and ignored him. [Twins] were indeed not difficult.
He is now at the peak of Tongyou. With a high-level view, it is not a problem to figure out this secret method.
"Just wait for the dragon pattern golden fruit to mature, it will be a few days." Li Hao looked at the corner of the cave, where there were arrays of formations.
Among them, the Heaven and Earth Spirit Vine took root in the dragon pattern gold stone, the golden dragon was already extremely weak, and the flower buds on the top of the Heaven and Earth Spirit Vine were abnormally full, as if they would crack at any time.
However, he thought: "Old Turtle, let's move first. After ambushing Xu Yuanxin, there may be unknown changes. I will make plans after I break through to the Immortal Fire Realm."
"Okay, caution is necessary." Old Turtle nodded, quite in agreement with this.
However, when he walked to the teleportation array and controlled it, his face suddenly changed, and several strands of his beard were pulled out. A rare look of surprise appeared on his face: "How could this happen!?"
"What's wrong?" Everyone in the cave looked over instantly.
"The teleportation array cannot be used." Old Turtle frowned, even broke out in a cold sweat, and carefully checked the teleportation array: "No, why can't it be used? There is obviously no problem."
The Taoist of Beiling and Elder Ao looked at each other and walked forward at the same time. The two formation masters checked every inch and finally confirmed: "The formation is fine, but the connection with other formations is broken."
"The connection is broken?" Ming An frowned, feeling uneasy, "What does it mean?"
"This involves the foundation of the formation, which is relatively complicated. Simply put, the teleportation arrays must be connected by special methods."
"The current mainstream connection method is the mother-and-child engraved gold stone. This kind of stone has a characteristic that even if it is thousands of miles apart, it will sense each other and use it to locate." Elder Ao roughly explained, "Someone used secret methods to cut off this connection on a large scale."
Ming An was surprised and doubtful, "What kind of method is this?"
"It doesn't have to be so complicated. The characteristics of the mother-and-child engraved gold stone are special. If the mother-and-child engraved gold stone is used with secret methods, this characteristic can be disrupted." Taoist Beiling explained,
"But this mother-and-child engraved gold stone is extremely rare, not to mention the birth of the mother marrow under large-scale gathering."
"There is a piece in the Imperial Observatory." Elder Ao said. When suppressing some rebel evil cultivators, if there is no means to ban the teleportation formation, it is easy to get nothing.
"Xuntian may have one too." Li Hao added.
"It's troublesome. They must have found out that we didn't pass through the teleportation array of Lord Yun and escaped from Shengtian, so they used this method." Ming An was restless, feeling that the other party would break in at the next moment.
"Evacuate here quickly and move to another place."
"No." Li Hao's eyes were deep, "Right here."
Everyone looked at him.
"The birth of the dragon pattern golden fruit cannot be disturbed. If I store it with a secret method, it will stagnate and delay time."
"Senior Beiling and Elder Ao are here. With their formation skills, it should be enough to cover up. When I break through to the Immortal Fire Mirror..." At this point, he paused, and a rare ruthlessness appeared in his eyes: "Turn the sky of Nanjiang upside down for him."
There was silence all around, and everyone looked at each other.
Ming An's throat rolled. Xuntian was an enemy, and the King of Zhennan was not a friend.
Everyone in Nanjiang was an enemy. Judging from Li Hao's intention, he was going to make a big fuss.
"How sure are you?" He couldn't help asking.
"Your Highness, sometimes taking risks is good for your physical and mental health." Li Hao suddenly laughed, and Ming An's heart was beating wildly.
Nm, can you give me a definite answer.
"He makes sense." Old Turtle said, his expression solemn, "Xuntian has too many means, and the layers of blockades are suffocating."
"Maybe we will be discovered on the way out."
"Okay, I believe you." Taoist Beiling laughed. He had seen many miracles against the sky in Li Hao.
What's wrong with another gamble?
As for the others, sorry, I don't have the ability to express my opinions.
Even Ming An could only ask a few questions, asking if he was sure, but he couldn't change the final decision.
Xu Yuanxin curled up in the corner of the cave, looking at this group of people as if they were idiots.
Are you crazy? Even if Li Hao breaks through to the Immortal Fire, what's the matter?
Xuntian still has a foundation, otherwise it would be impossible to dispatch three Immortal Fire Realms with endless means.
And my father, as long as I am alive, I will never let my father help you.
Never!
………
Two days later, the cave was filled with a fragrant fragrance, which made people unable to help but salivate and take a few more breaths.
The spirit of heaven and earth has withered, and the dragon in the dragon gold stone has also disappeared, leaving only a piece of dazzling stone.
A golden fruit with a red dragon coiled around it fell into Li Hao's hand. It was as big as a baby's head and exuded a dazzling brilliance.
Dragon pattern golden fruit, this is the fruit produced after grafting.
Old Turtle stroked the golden stone and sighed, "Even if the dragon is swallowed, the level of this stone is not inferior to the dragon-patterned golden fruit, and it may even be better."
"I have arranged several major formations to completely cover this area. The movement of breaking through the realm is not small, especially the fairy fire realm, which should be covered up." Taoist Beiling looked solemn.
The others have already moved away from Li Hao and are protected by the formation to avoid being affected by the fairy fire.
"Well," Li Hao nodded, took a long breath, and sat cross-legged in the center, with the dragon-patterned golden fruit hanging in front of him.
Then a stream of blood was drawn out from the bathtub not far away, but it was released by him during this period.
The blood was pulled by the invisible force and condensed into a vague figure beside him, with facial features roughly the same as his.
At the same time, Li Hao's fingertips broke open, and a drop of light golden blood was squeezed out. This was his heart essence.
Of course, it was extracted very early, but it was only nurtured in the body, and some runes were engraved at the same time.
Using his own blood as a guide, he condensed his virtual body and established a deep connection with himself.
When breaking through the realm, he was like a monk, attracting the things that broke through the realm, and finally returned to himself.
After the light golden blood beads merged into the blood body, it was like the finishing touch, and layers of golden ripples spread in his body with complicated symbols.
Then, Li Hao adjusted his body to the best state and tried to resonate with the dragon pattern golden fruit, and an inexplicable breath and fluctuations were emitted.
Taoist Beiling and Old Turtle watched from a distance. They had all experienced this process and were quite experienced.
Li Hao seemed to be in harmony with nature and fell into an inexplicable situation. His soul resonated with his body, and the dragon pattern golden fruit trembled, and the three became one.
Boom!
A wisp of milky white flame burst out from the dragon pattern golden fruit, swaying, looking harmless to humans and animals, but instantly raised the temperature of this area to an incomprehensible level.
All around, the array patterns intertwined, barely resisting the invasion of the flames.
This is the fairy fire, the fire that burns the body, the fire that burns the soul!
The faces of Taoist Beiling and Old Turtle changed slightly, as if they recalled the endless pain of the burning of the immortal fire.
On the other side, in front of the blood body, a ray of flame also burst out from the dazzling golden stone.
Both of them are excellent fuel for the immortal fire. The milky white flame quickly expanded to a height of one person, and it felt even brighter, like magma.
At the same time, the blood body beside him slowly moved sideways and gradually merged with him.
The immortal fire bursting out from the golden stone seemed to be a little dazed, but in an instant it found a new target and attacked Li Hao together with the immortal fire on the dragon-patterned golden fruit.
Boom!
The immortal fire enveloped Li Hao's whole body and swallowed him.
