Follow the path of Dao from infancy - Chapter 688: 130 Sword Master's Hand Token, Yao Ancestor's Test (Combined)_3

Chapter 688: Chapter 130 Sword Master’s Hand Token, Yao Ancestor’s Test (Combined)_3

“This matter concerns cultivation, I hope the three of you can keep it a secret for me.”

Engaging in battle with an enemy, the foundation of cultivation is a hidden killer move. All three understood this point, and the two Sword Attendants both nodded, indicating they would keep Li Hao’s secret and not speak indiscreetly.

But Jiang Yingyue was staring at Li Hao and said, “To be able to cultivate to such an extent, have you mastered other Extreme Realms as well? Aren’t you an Alchemist? How old are you this year?”

Li Hao looked at her with a strange expression and said, “Senior Sister Jiang, that should be my secret.”

Jiang Yingyue’s complexion slightly changed, looking somewhat complicated. She knew she had been too agitated, but she couldn’t help it—the shock of the ninety-seven-layer Dao Domain was too great.

As a top genius of the Inner Sect, apart from those Saint Heirs, she prided herself on having cultivated and strived to the utmost, but now someone with a ninety-seven-layer Dao Domain had emerged, far surpassing her.

If Li Hao’s prowess in the previous Martial Arts Realms was mediocre and he had only focused on the Eighth Extreme Realm, she could have accepted it. But if there were other Extreme Realms before that, it would be quite terrifying.

Moreover, Li Hao was also an Alchemist. Just now, there was also that astonishing painting. Carrying so many feats, his age must not be small.

“Can’t you even say your age?”

Jiang Yingyue asked persistently.

Li Hao helplessly replied, “Asking a man’s age is quite impertinent.”

“…”

Jiang Yingyue was somewhat annoyed but also knew that indeed, this was private. However, she recalled the earlier invitation from the Sword Master to Li Hao for fishing. When Li Hao had spoken, the Sword Master had also just happened to start fishing up that True Dragon, indicating that Li Hao also had profound accomplishments in fishing.

The most critical point was the liking for fishing, which is generally the mentality of the elderly.

It was just using Cultivation Techniques and controlling the flesh to keep one’s appearance young; such means were very common.

Like herself, already in her nineties, she could be a great-grandmother amongst commoners, but she still felt like a young girl, so she kept her appearance at her youthful look.

After reaching the Three Immortal Realms, aging slows down, and in the Four Stands Realm, one can manipulate their flesh to change their appearance.

For Demons, once reaching the Fifteen Li Realm and able to shapeshift, they can randomly become young children or beautiful women at will.

Therefore, one’s age cannot be judged merely by appearance.

Pity I don’t have a Bone-Reflecting Mirror on hand… Jiang Yingyue thought to herself.

The two Sword Attendants beside her had already calmed down. The male Sword Attendant, seeing Li Hao’s book of Cultivation Technique, asked:

“Have you chosen?”

Li Hao nodded, handing the Sword Technique to him to release the seals of the laws upon it.

The male Sword Attendant took it over, and upon seeing it was a Supreme Dao Sword Technique, his eyebrows raised and said, “You want to choose this one? Do you know this Cultivation Technique was created by a Sword Saint and is one of the top Daoist-level swordsmanships!”

“Uh-huh.”

Li Hao nodded, wasn’t it precisely because it was supreme that he had chosen it?

Seeing Li Hao did not catch his implication, the Sword Attendant straightaway said, “This top swordsmanship requires extremely high Perception. Although its power is unrivaled, the difficulty of cultivation is also great. If you want to focus on refining your Dao Domain, this swordsmanship might consume a lot of your attention.”

Li Hao then heard the undertone of goodwill from the other party, who was worried that the profound and abstruse swordsmanship would lead him to delve into it and neglect his cultivation of the Dao Domain.

“No problem, I have Yao Ancestor to instruct me, I believe I can master it,” said Li Hao.

Seeing Li Hao’s resolve, the Sword Attendant did not say more. After all, for Li Hao to have cultivated his Dao Domain to the ninety-seven-layer, it was clear his talent was not lacking, it was just that the swordsmanship would consume a bit more of his effort.

Quickly, he executed a secret seal to unravel the laws sealing the Cultivation Technique and handed it over to Li Hao:

“Not to be disclosed to outsiders, otherwise, once traced back to you, you will be directly imprisoned in the Endless Sword Prison, to suffer from ten thousand sword punishments every day and not be permitted to die!”

He spoke earnestly, obviously, this was a very serious matter.

Li Hao inwardly clicked his tongue, indeed, to any power, Cultivation Techniques are the foundation and must not be shaken.

After choosing the Cultivation Technique, Li Hao inquired about the whereabouts of the Sword Master, but then he heard the Sword Master’s voice in his mind:

“I am weary today. If you wish to come fishing, you are welcome at any time. This is my Sword Command.”

As the voice faded, a silver Sword Command, like a short dagger, appeared out of thin air in front of Li Hao and fell down.

Li Hao caught it swiftly.

The two Sword Attendants, seeing the Sword Command in Li Hao’s hand, were momentarily stunned, somewhat astonished.

The master had just casually given his own Sword Command to an outsider?

Jiang Yingyue also recognized it, her eyes bulging almost to the point of choking. That was a Saint’s Hand Token, and Li Hao had just obtained it like that?

Li Hao was also a bit surprised. He immediately bowed slightly towards the Sword Tower:

“Many thanks to the venerable Sword Master.”

Then he put away the Sword Command and signaled that Jiang Yingyue could leave.

Jiang Yingyue came back to her senses, looking somewhat bewildered and wordless.

She had waited for so long, and just like that, they were going back?

Judging by the situation, it seemed that the Sword Master had exchanged some words with Li Hao through spiritual communication, and today’s fishing also seemed to be off.

The Sword Master had just taken up his fishing rod and returned; obviously, her hope to accompany Li Hao on fishing in front of this Saint and become more familiar had vanished.

With things having reached this point, Jiang Yingyue did not say much and could only take Li Hao back.

But when they returned to the outside of the ten platforms, the place was already empty of people, only some disciples were cleaning the ground and repairing the platform.

“The preliminary selection has ended, I’ll take you to see Master at Yaochi Peak.”

Jiang Yingyue glanced around and knew the situation, telling Li Hao.

Li Hao thought for a moment. Lin Shanhai and the others knew his whereabouts; if they weren’t waiting for him here, it probably meant they were quite at ease with him.

“Alright.”

Li Hao agreed. Having acquired so many Cultivation Techniques from the Sword Tower, the harvest was huge; he also felt he should personally express his gratitude to that Yao Ancestor.
