Follow the path of Dao from infancy

Chapter 1297: Chapter 289: The Three-Year Deadline Has Come (6K)_3

The Sword Momentum was like a rainbow, slicing through the long sky, seemingly wanting to split open the secret realm.

Li Hao looked up at it, nodding slightly, his Perception was quite good, learning a lot from just one teaching.

"Not bad."

He praised.

Gu Xingwan also saw the might of this sword, and a joyful look appeared in her eyes; it was indeed much more powerful than before.

"I understand now, I shouldn’t use the sword to accumulate strength, but rather store the momentum within my body, making the sword erupt only at the moment of strike."

Gu Xingwan said, she had just been using the power of the Water Dao Origin, but instead of extending it with the sword, she accumulated immortal power within herself.

"It’s also a clever technique." Li Hao commented.

Gu Xingwan smiled, glanced at the young man, and seeing him smilingly looking at her, her cheeks turned slightly red, and she turned her head away.

Today’s guidance was more fruitful than years of her own hard cultivation and pondering.

"Thank you."

She said softly, her voice like a faint thread.

"It’s nothing." Li Hao responded casually, then stood up and said, "You practice slowly, I’ll go find your grandfather."

Gu Xingwan saw Li Hao about to leave, her eyes instantly filled with disappointment, and said, "I’m still not familiar, can you teach me more?"

"I’ve just taught you, comprehend it on your own, relying solely on teaching won’t make you learn." Li Hao said.

He then left directly, heading towards the Water Moon Palace.

Gu Xingwan stamped her foot lightly, seeing the figure leave without a hint of reluctance, and bit her lips slightly.

In the Water Moon Palace.

Li Hao saw Gu Changming meditating, but there were stars revolving around the void before him, as if forming a Star Domain.

"You’ve come."

Gu Changming seemed to have already sensed Li Hao, smiling as he looked over, and said, "That child made you worry."

Clearly, he was already aware of the matters in the courtyard.

"It’s nothing."

Li Hao said casually.

"About the Spiritual Official matter, because you are a special case, there are more relationships to smooth out, but it’s already recorded. Here is your Demon Suppressing Spirit Officer Order; this is the Immortal Cutting Clothes; this is the Divine Ash Demon Suppressing Sword!"

Gu Changming raised his hand, conjuring various items in front of Li Hao.

The Demon Suppressing Spirit Officer Order was entirely silver, like a military token, containing Li Hao’s Spirit Officer identity information, impossible to forge.

The Immortal Cutting Clothes looked luxurious, with wide sleeves and a long robe, exuding a silver-white glow, it was a set of Immortal Soldiers, containing the Immortal Path Law, capable of withstanding attacks from lower Immortal Monarch Realm.

And the Divine Ash Demon Suppressing Sword was also an Immortal Soldier, standard equipment for a Spirit Officer; Li Hao, being a lower-level Spirit Officer, was equipped with a lower-level Immortal Soldier tier Divine Ash Demon Suppressing Sword.

This Immortal Soldier was uniformly forged by the Yan Chu Immortal Dynasty, with a sword handle fashioned to resemble an imposing Ancient Demon’s head bite.

"With this set of attire, wearing it within the Yan Chu boundaries, enforcing law in any county or city, the local authorities will actively cooperate with you."

Gu Changming said.

Li Hao nodded; he had Immortal Soldier inheritance, so he wasn’t lacking in this aspect.

The Taowu was a top-tier Immortal Soldier, far superior to the Divine Ash Demon Suppressing Sword in his hand, but because it was tied to him, sharing immortal power with him, it required him to channel his immortal power to unleash its power, and currently, at the True Immortal Realm Third Level, even if his immortal power was drained, he couldn’t exhibit half of Taowu’s strength.

Although the All Heavens Star Vein continually replenished his power, his personal capacity was still too low.

"It needs cultivation; luckily, there are also Spirit Stones."

Li Hao mused to himself.

Cooking Ancient Demon Meat primarily enhances the Primordial Spirit, having little effect on cultivation. In this Water Moon Secret Realm, where immortal power is abundant, combining with Spirit Stone for full-fledged cultivation makes advancing the Realm not difficult.

"Currently, you’re stationed in Qinghe Mo City. I’ve told the department that you’re with me handling demon suppression duties, so there’s no need to report back to the Demon Suppression Bureau for now. You can cultivate peacefully until either your Southern Domain battle concludes or when you’re tired of staying here and then consider going."

Gu Changming smiled and said, "Following your request, I’ve arranged a leisure task for you, but ultimately, you need to present yourself at some point."

"Thank you, Elder Gu."

Li Hao smiled and said.

"Go on, let me know if you need anything."

"Alright."

Li Hao got up to leave, then returned to the courtyard to begin his cultivation.

Currently, he resides long-term in this Water Moon Secret Realm, where the immortal power is so rich that even without intentional cultivation, his cultivation will slowly increase. The conditions here are far superior to those at the Wildfire Camp.

Because he appeared on the Immortal Merit Rankings and the news leaked, living in the Wildfire Camp, he was often visited by people, always busy, and quite annoyed, so Li Hao mainly sought a peaceful environment here.

Li Hao arrived at his residence, allowing his Divine Thought to enter the Token. Here was the Immortal Merit exchange treasury, enabling him to exchange Immortal Merit for various treasures within the Yan Chu Immortal Dynasty’s treasury.

Even if all Immortal Merit were spent, the records of Immortal Merit would still exist.

Li Hao didn’t plan to use up his Immortal Merit. There were many valuable herbs and Immortal Pills in there, which he wasn’t particularly interested in, and as for Immortal Soldiers, with Taowu in hand, he wasn’t lacking.

Without looking further, he directly used one hundred thousand Immortal Merit to exchange for one hundred thousand Immortal Stones.

One Immortal Merit equals one Immortal Stone; this exchange was undoubtedly somewhat extravagant. Many people couldn’t bear to use their Immortal Merit for Immortal Stones, instead opting to save it for other precious Immortal Pills and Spiritual Medicine, but for Li Hao, whatever was convenient was preferable.

"When there’s time, go to Emperor Hall to exchange those three IOUs."

Li Hao thought to himself.

Those three IOUs, each worth a million Immortal Stones, who knows if the former merchants have gone bankrupt yet.

Immortal Stones are precious, even with his current Spirit Officer status, the monthly stipend is only a hundred Immortal Stones.

And an ordinary True Immortal Realm working as a guard for the Immortal Race family could earn about four or five Immortal Stones a month, which was considered a very good salary.

One hundred thousand Immortal Stones were enough for Li Hao to cultivate to the eighth or ninth layers of the True Immortal Realm.

He had just finished eating Demon Meat and now casually used the Dao Domain, overlapping space, and altering the flow of time; even if Gu Changming wanted to investigate his movements within the Dao Domain, he would be aware.
