Follow the path of Dao from infancy

Chapter 1154: Chapter 242 Nine Orders

Li Hao was stunned, feeling both surprised and delighted.

Although he had comprehended his Artistic Skill to the eleventh level, which would allow him to reach the True Immortal Realm, whether he would receive the Nine Flower Immortal Seal was unknown.

Challenging the second layer of the True Venerate Tower was only the second test; the difficulty of the third step could be well imagined.

“Thank you, Senior.”

Li Hao quickly expressed his gratitude.

The projection, or rather the tower spirit of the True Venerate Tower, waved dismissively to Li Hao and murmured to himself:

“Wang Shanhe has already imparted the Shuntian Ancestor Scripture to you, hasn’t he? Do you know what ’shun’ means, or ’tian’?”

Li Hao honestly shook his head.

“Remember, shun means time, tian means void!”

A flash of sharpness flickered in the tower spirit’s eyes as it gazed at Li Hao for a moment before returning to indifference, saying, “When you reach a bottleneck in comprehension, you will understand. I’ll send you out first. If you wish to challenge again, you are welcome at any time. If you seek a sparring partner, I can offer projections from the first and second layers to help you refine.”

Li Hao felt a slight tremor in his heart, the words still echoing in his mind.

Shun means time, tian means void?

Space-Time Ancestor Scripture?

He immediately realized that, in terms of comprehending the Shuntian Ancestor Scripture, this was a significant hint from the other party.

At this moment, with a casual wave of the tower spirit’s hand, Li Hao returned to the True Venerate Tower.

Before him, all was pitch black, and behind him, a bright light opened—it was the tower door.

“Go forth.”

The voice of the tower spirit came, but compared to the voice of the projection Li Hao had heard before, it now carried more depth and gravity, as if it traveled from a distant space-time.

Li Hao was in a daze for a moment, then slowly walked out of the True Venerate Tower.

Outside the tower, at a distance on the cushions.

When the crowd saw Li Hao’s figure appear, they immediately began whispering to each other.

Compared to last time, this time Li Hao stayed inside for a slightly shorter duration.

Although Li Hao passed the second layer, he did not endure as he did in the first layer, where the Returning Ruins Extreme Realm constantly pulled; this time, the battle ended more swiftly.

“Faster by fifteen minutes than last time. It seems these two years have been wasted; without progress, there is regression.”

“It might also be that his State of Mind was disturbed, thoughts were impure during the battle.”

“Most likely so.”

Among the crowd, Flower Saint and Travel Saint’s expressions changed slightly as they looked at Li Hao with some concern, considering giving him a reminder when he came over.

Meanwhile, Ming Saint and Mu Saint, seated in the front rows, exchanged glances, seeing the shock in each other’s eyes.

Hearing the whispers around him, Mu Saint felt a flush of embarrassment. Would his challenge disturb Li Hao and affect his mindset?

How could that be possible? Others didn’t know yet, but the young man had already passed the first layer of the True Venerate Tower test; this time, he was challenging the second layer!

Now that the time was shortened, it was understandable. After all, the difficulty of the second layer was doubled. To endure for two incenses’ time was already quite terrifying.

A gentle breeze stirred, and in front of the distant house, Elder Wang appeared before the cushions without anyone knowing when. He gazed intently at the True Venerate Tower, and after a moment, his eyes slightly contracted, revealing a hint of astonishment.

Despite his vast experience, this was a rare occurrence.

In the heyday of the True Realm, those monstrous Direct Disciples had displayed such astonishing talent, but now, the young man who contended with him over the chessboard day in and day out had also reached such a level?

In just five short years, two challenges, passing the second layer of the True Venerate Tower…

He felt he had underestimated the young man’s aptitude.

His body trembled slightly, like an old withered tree shivering in the cold wind, no one knowing the excitement within him.

Ming Saint and Mu Saint noticed Elder Wang’s arrival, both started and then their expressions changed, an incredulous thought surging in their hearts.

At this moment, Li Hao had arrived before the cushions.

Noticing the several pairs of eyes in the crowd fixed intently on him, it was Ming Saint and the others. He gave a slight smile, then glanced at Flower Saint and Travel Saint, seeing their worried expressions, he couldn’t help but feel surprised.

“Haotian…”

Flower Saint was just about to telepathically persuade Li Hao when suddenly, Lin Saint stood up and spoke to Li Hao:

“Challenging the second layer for the first time and enduring this long, it seems the Immortal Emperor’s legacy is destined for you.”

These words plunged the crowd into silence.

The sound-transmitting Flower Saint was stunned, then looked at Li Hao in amazement.

Travel Saint also displayed disbelief on her face as noble as a royal princess’s, overcome with incredulity.

Other Saints were dumbfounded, not immediately reacting to Lin Saint’s words.

After a few short seconds, exclamations erupted like a boiling pot.

“Second layer? What second layer?”

“There’s a second layer in the True Venerate Tower?”

“What’s this second layer about? Never heard of it!”

The crowd became excited, engaging in fervent discussions, and soon noticed Elder Wang above, looking at him in confusion, expecting him to provide an explanation.

In the midst of the crowd’s clamoring exclamations, Elder Wang had already calmed his inner excitement, a kindly smile appearing on his face, his eyes seemingly only seeing Li Hao, and he softly said three ’good’ words, then said:

“Follow me.”

Li Hao nodded, then looked at Flower Saint, transmitting inquiringly: “Did you need me for something just now?”

Flower Saint was stunned for a moment, then couldn’t help but ask: “What Lin Saint said, is it true?”

“Yes.”

Li Hao nodded, then saw the other party in a daze, not responding, so he followed Elder Wang and left.

After Elder Wang and Li Hao headed to the house, the people on the cushions immediately surrounded Lin Saint, inquiring one after another. Quickly, they learned from Lin Saint that Li Hao had already challenged and passed the first layer of the True Venerate Tower last time, making his initial appearance.

And they also learned that the True Venerate Tower had three layers, corresponding to Direct, Formal, and Named Disciple statuses.

In their efforts for tens of thousands of years, they had only undergone the Named Disciple test.
