Seeing Li Hao surpass her, Chu Yueli's eyes revealed a hint of shock and anger. She was already in the Immortal Monarch Realm, yet in the Ti Origin Realm, she was actually losing to this young man.
However, earlier on the Heavenly Bridge, she had already witnessed Li Hao's proficiency in the Ti Origin Realm; otherwise, he could not have evaded the Tao locking on the Heavenly Bridge.
Besides, she herself did not mainly cultivate the Ti Origin. To quickly establish herself among the Imperial Family and with the inheritance from her mother, she had mastered the Fire Dao within the Nine Orders from a young age.
But on this journey, she did not head to Five Paths Origin City. Although the Fire Dao Divine Tree there could significantly enhance her, she knew that with her current Fire Dao Realm, obtaining the Divine Tree's recognition and securing the Divine Tree Dao Fruit would be quite challenging.
In other Immortal Dynasties, there would inevitably be figures of Chu Tianhuang's caliber competing with her, so she chose to broaden her foundation for future growth, coming here to comprehend the Ti Origin.
And within these five years, she hadn't disappointed her own expectations. Previously, she hadn't even reached the threshold of the Ti Origin, but now she had achieved the First Realm of the Ti Origin and was charging towards its peak!
All this was thanks to cultivating in front of the Ti Origin Divine Tree, with the Ti Dao Rhy's blessing, gaining insights swiftly.
"I've only been practicing the Ti Origin for five years. Surpassing is no great feat."
Chu Yueli gritted her teeth, coldly snorted in her heart, and watched Li Hao's figure rise higher and higher, feeling increasingly irked.
Whoosh!
At this mont, Li Hao followed the Ti Origin, continuously accelerating, and in a flash, he surpassed nurous figures.
Soon, several robust figures appeared ahead, ascending against the flow of the Ti River.
"Hmm?"
Among them, one figure in imperial robes turned his head, showing surprise upon seeing Li Hao, but quickly beca understanding, as he had earlier noticed Li Hao's significant Ti Origin Realm on the Heavenly Bridge.
"You're here too, why only now?"
Chu Tianhuang chuckled lightly.
"I went to look around elsewhere, so I ca late."
Li Hao replied.
Chu Tianhuang was slightly taken aback but then smiled, as he indeed hadn't seen Li Hao in Ti Origin City earlier, which was quite possible.
"Did you visit Five Paths Origin City or perhaps Shape Origin City?"
Chu Tianhuang asked.
"Five Paths."
"That person is there too, right? Did he obtain the Divine Tree Dao Fruit?"
Chu Tianhuang politely inquired.
Li Hao knew "that person" referred to Boya Xuejian. In the Yan Chu Immortal Dynasty, Chu Tianhuang likely saw Boya Xuejian as the only rival, with the others far less comparable.
Even the third-ranked royal mber probably wasn't considered a threat.
"I'm not sure, you can ask him later." Li Hao said, as he wasn't in the habit of privately disclosing others' information, especially not with Chu Tianhuang, with whom he was rely acquaintances.
Chu Tianhuang nodded slightly, then returned to the earlier topic with a smile, "Good luck, this is the last spiritual eruption, let's see who can obtain the recognition of the Ti Origin Divine Tree."
"Alright!"
Li Hao responded, then stepped upon the fragnts of ti, ascending against the turbulence.
"Hmph."
Four others were beside him, all in the Immortal Monarch Realm, exuding imnse power.
Upon hearing the conversation between Chu Tianhuang and Li Hao, they glanced at Li Hao, and upon seeing he was only in the True Immortal Realm, their expressions took on an indiscernible look, not disdainful but rather dissatisfied.
Being in the True Immortal Realm and capable of catching up to them, his talent was evidently remarkable and warranted attention. Among geniuses, there often was mutual respect.
Yet, Li Hao actually aspired to compete with them for the Dao Fruit, which was sowhat overambitious.
Catching up didn't equate to becoming a competitor; they were two different matters.
Whoosh!
One youth, who had snorted earlier, suddenly surged forth in the chaotic Ti River, breaking through layers of ti fragnts, heading towards the tree crown.
The other three simultaneously exerted their strength, quickly widening the gap with Li Hao.
Seeing this, Chu Tianhuang inford Li Hao he was going ahead, then unleashed an even deeper ti control, moving swiftly like a ghostly light within the Ti River.
Li Hao's eyes narrowed, realizing these individuals had considerable Ti Origin Realms, at least at the Third Level peak.
He redirected his focus and, instead of letting the widening distance affect his mindset, reflected on earlier insights from leaving the Ti Origin Secret Realm. The Ti Divine Tree had already made clear to him that he hadn't truly sought the Dao Fruit.
He ca here to find a good spot for Fishing; even without the Ti Divine Tree Dao Fruit, a substantial haul could still offer a significant enhancent.
Only by not contending can one not be competed against!
Li Hao upheld his own Dao Thoughts, his gaze sweeping over the myriad chaotic and mottled fragnts of ti around him, devoid of distractions from pursuing the Dao Fruit, he instead focused on these ti fragnts.
Each fragnt's turn revealed a segnt of bygone days.
There were buried eras, and even his own past, erging scene by scene.
A child sitting alone amidst the prosperity of the Divine General Mansion, gazing at the starry sky deep into the night.
A boy born in wealth and splendor, spending days indulging in the arts, Fishing and playing in the countryside.
Li Hao looked at the fragnts, the corners of his mouth slightly tilting upward, seeing warmth he had almost overlooked.
Sharing pastries with his aunt, nearly choking from eating too quickly, causing the always steady and composed lady of the Divine General Mansion to be startled.
In the dark night by the distant frontier, under the clear moon, the boy slept in the tent, while outside was an elderly figure, sitting in the shadow of the void, silently watching over.
"Aunt... Feng..."
Li Hao's eyes flickered with emotion, his heart filled with longing.
Feng followed him to the True Realm, apprenticing to a different sect, while his aunt remained in the Heavenly Calamity Illusion Realm.
