In the passageway, the majestic Emperor Sword Mountain floated before the disciples.
Outside this Emperor Sword Mountain lay endless green plains and undulating hills. At this mont, the disciples stood in groups of two or three on various hills, all exuding extraordinary temperant as they gazed at the towering Emperor Sword Mountain.
Li Hao, along with Yue Xi, Gu Yan, and two other people, entered one after another, landing on a hill.
"I’m going first."
Yue Xi cast just one glance and imdiately said, then looked past Li Hao to glance at Gu Yan standing beside him.
Noticing that the other party didn’t look at her, Yue Xi’s eyes flickered, and she turned away without hesitation, flying off.
Li Hao looked around, admiring the surroundings, and saw that after a slight pause, many disciples rushed eagerly towards the Emperor Sword Mountain.
As he was casually observing, he noticed his younger disciple brother Gu Yan standing quietly, not moving.
"You’re not going?"
Li Hao asked, a bit surprised.
"Sharing the fight makes it easier, winning brings no thrill."
Gu Yan replied indifferently.
Li Hao was taken aback and couldn’t help but chuckle, ah, this is the arrogance of a top genius.
But seriously, doesn’t your mother know that talking like this could get you beaten up outside?
"Then I’ll head off first."
Li Hao said, imdiately joining the crowd of disciples heading towards the towering Emperor Sword Mountain.
Seeing Li Hao’s figure flying away, Gu Yan’s deanor remained calm, quietly gazing at the peak of the Emperor Sword Mountain, feeling a faint sense that a gaze was also fixed on him.
...
Soon, Li Hao arrived at the First Level of Emperor Sword Mountain.
Outside, it was shrouded by an immortal power barrier, from the outside looking in, only vague silhouettes of mountains and waters could be seen.
Upon passing through the barrier, Li Hao instantly felt a sense of enlightennt, as if a voice told him that the way to clear the First Level was to head to the central zone, where there was a passage to the Second Level.
Before him now was a vast world without borders. He found himself in the sky above a forest, sensing only two fierce fighting energies nearby.
Li Hao was amazed; from outside, the Emperor Sword Mountain seed only the size of a city, but inside it held a universe unto itself.
"The power of space origins..."
Li Hao’s gaze swept around, perceiving the extraordinary nature of the Emperor Sword Mountain.
Through subtle intuition, he could roughly determine where the central zone was, guided by so energy.
Li Hao did not rush to find the central zone but headed towards one of the battle spots, as he had never seen the Spirit Clan before.
Very soon, when Li Hao arrived at the battle site, he saw a red-sleeved woman fighting fiercely against four figures.
Is this the Spirit Clan? Li Hao looked with surprise, noticing that the appearance of the True Realm Spirit Clan was no different from the Human Race, except for their silver hair and translucent pupils, like beings from a winter wonderland, with elusive and subtle energies, their use of immortal power exceptionally nimble and delicate.
At this mont, the red-sleeved woman was struggling in battle, repeatedly attempting to deploy the Immortal’s Path, but her swordsmanship had not reached perfection, unable to guide her a way out.
Li Hao’s arrival was not concealed, and the red-sleeved woman quickly noticed him, her eyes lighting up with joy upon recognizing Li Hao’s Heavenly Institute disciple attire, she quickly shouted:
"Senior Brother, help !"
The four Spirit Clan mbers also noticed Li Hao. One young man suddenly broke away from the encirclent, flying towards Li Hao, intending to restrain him first.
Watching their fight for a while, Li Hao gleaned so insights; the fighting style of the Spirit Clan was more agile and flexible compared to the Human Race, yet they seed extrely reluctant to risk their lives, preferring not to rely on brute strength. Otherwise, that red-sleeved woman, only at the True Immortal Realm Third Level, would’ve already been defeated by their combined efforts.
"To rescue her, you must first pass by ... "
The Spirit Clan youth flew over as if teleporting, coldly speaking to Li Hao while shooting a butterfly-like blue blade of light.
However, before he finished saying the word "pass," Li Hao flicked his fingers, and a Sword Qi abruptly shot out, shattering the butterfly blade and piercing through his shoulder in an instant, repelling him.
After that, he took a step forward, arriving next to the red-sleeved woman, with a wave of his hand, causing a spatial tremor that pushed the other three Spirit Clan mbers back.
Seeing the power Li Hao demonstrated with ease, the four Spirit Clan mbers were startled, exchanging glances and recognizing that he was not soone they could contend with.
Moreover, they recognized the Heavenly Institute disciple uniform, knowing that he must be a peerless talent under so elder.
They did not linger, swiftly turning and flying away.
Their task here was to intercept those disciples who did not et the criteria, and with soone like Li Hao who clearly could not be stopped by the First Level, they retreated without hesitation.
With the retreat of the four Spirit Clan mbers, the red-sleeved woman finally had a mont to breathe. She, too, noticed how Li Hao repelled the four Spirit Clan mbers with just a wave of his hand, without even exerting excessive immortal power, using so other ans instead.
"Thank you, Senior Brother, for your help. I’m Hu Hongyao; may I have your na so that I can thank you in the future!"
The red-sleeved woman wiped the sweat from her temple, ca up to Li Hao, and said with the joy of surviving a disaster.
Li Hao looked at her smiling face, exuding an innocent and lively aura, and couldn’t help but smile as well, saying: "Just call Haotian. It was just a small effort. You must be an Earth Institute disciple; this trial seems a bit too much for you, better to withdraw."
Hu Hongyao didn’t feel offended by Li Hao’s words; instead, she nodded, saying: "Yes, I’m actually here to train, taking advantage of the venue here. Observing the fights of other senior brothers might greatly improve ; after all, we share the sa roots and veins..."
