Chapter 735: Chapter 143: Traces of Haotian, Top Ten Ranking (Combined) _2

Since no one could protect him, he had become invincible under the heavens!

“Let’s drop that topic, after all, it has little to do with us, Qingfeng, you haven’t mentioned what you are best at,” Green Ancestor said.

Li Hao gathered his thoughts and considered that his highest skill levels were currently in cooking and the Artistic Path.

“Cooking and painting.”

Li Hao said, “These two skills are my current specialties.”

Remembering that they had just discussed chess, he added, “I also have some study in chess. If there’s a chance, I’d like to exchange pointers with the two of you.”

…

“Really? Jack of all trades?”

Green Ancestor was surprised, though the Immortal Tao was broken, and they lacked that drive, they had found other amusements; still, they focused on only one each. Li Hao had even dabbled in cooking.

“What, you say you like cooking?”

Suddenly, a rotund shadow loosened up, approached Li Hao, and asked in astonishment, “Are you serious, or just casually dabbling, Zhan Tan, how did he join us? Through what skill?”

“Another one who likes to cook, Bai Zu has found a kindred spirit.”

Ye Ancestor laughed and said to Li Hao, “We take our chess very seriously, it’s not just for fun; we disdain lousy players.”

That shadow of a graceful woman spoke softly, “Qingfeng joined the Flower Travel Association through the Artistic Path. His painting skills are unparalleled; Butterfly has shown me his artwork, and in the field of painting, he even surpasses me. He’s already Entering Dao!”

Hearing Zhan Tan’s words, everyone fell silent, looking at Li Hao in amazement.

His painting skills surpassed Zhan Tan?

One must know that within the Flower Travel Association, Zhan Tan’s painting skills were considered peerless, and she was known as the Painting Saint. Li Hao’s artwork could gain her acknowledgement and even admit inferiority; that was rather alarming.

Li Hao, hearing her words, immediately understood that she must be one of the vice presidents of the Flower Travel Association mentioned by Gui Qingshuang, a Semi-Saint.

Furthermore, judging from her words, she must also be an expert in the Artistic Path. This arouse Li Hao’s interest; he hoped to exchange ideas when free and, moreover, she likely had a collection of famous paintings—each with its own encyclopedia attribute.

“The Artistic Path?”

The rotund Bai Zu expressed disappointment, “I thought it was cooking.”

Li Hao smiled and said, “My culinary skills are no less than my painting skills.”

“Really?”

Bai Zu looked at him in astonishment and asked, “Are you certain?”

“We’ll know once we have the chance to judge each other’s craftsmanship.” Li Hao spoke with considerable confidence when it came to cooking.

Bai Zu’s eyes sparkled with excitement at his words. Nodding, he said, “Right, whether it’s delicious or not, we’ll know once we taste it. Where are you? I’ll come to you.”

Li Hao hadn’t expected Bai Zu to be quite so forthright and was slightly surprised, but he could also tell that Bai Zu truly enjoyed this pursuit, having ample leisure and time.

“In the Canglan Realm.”

Li Hao said.

However, Zhan Tan on the side said, “Bai Zu, you can visit Qingfeng, but don’t be too earnest and disrupt Qingfeng’s cultivation. He’s currently participating in the Supreme Genius Battle and seems to have a good chance of representing our Canglan Realm.”

Hearing Zhan Tan’s words, the others were taken aback. Green Ancestor said, “You are participating in the Supreme Genius Battle? How old are you?”

“Approaching 30.” Li Hao replied.

“…”

Everyone looked at each other in mute disbelief. Under 30? That’s practically a child.

“You are so young, and you already have the leisure to paint, and to cook?” Bai Zu also thought he had misheard, somewhat baffled.

Only 30, and life is just beginning.

At 30, they were all still resolutely pushing forward with their cultivation.

Back then, their minds were filled with cultivation; even women had to step aside, as they would hinder their progress.

“This…” Ye Ancestor was dumbfounded, “Under 30, and you’ve cultivated to the Tao Comprehension Realm?”

Reaching the Tao Comprehension Realm at this age was monstrously talented in itself.

Zhan Tan was also looking at Li Hao in shock; although she had learned of his identity from Gui Qingshuang and knew he was participating in the Supreme Genius Battle, she had not expected Li Hao to be so young.

She thought that for Li Hao to delve into painting to such an extent, he would be at least in his eighties or nineties.

This alone was a great surprise to her and something she cared about. After all, being a hundred or so was still too young for them; it was merely the starting point of the cultivation journey.

They had cultivated for hundreds, thousands, even several thousand years, growing weary of cultivation and hitting bottlenecks before cultivating leisureliness.

“You’re joking, right? The Tao Comprehension Realm at the age of 30; could it be that you’re the reincarnation of a Saint?”

The young man was stunned, setting aside other methods, just the realm itself was shocking to them.

They had reached their level of cultivation by being geniuses and monsters, and though their current strength was formidable, classifying them as venerable figures in the Tao Comprehension Realm, they were far below Li Hao at that age.

Li Hao revealed his age because he knew that the Bone-Reflecting Mirror would eventually measure his actual age in the later stages of the Supreme Genius Battle. It would come to light sooner or later, so there was no need to conceal it.

“Qingfeng’s talent is that of an Ask Sage existence. Don’t you want to concentrate on cultivating to the Saint Realm first?”

Green Ancestor couldn’t help but ask.

“Cultivation does not get delayed; it’s all about balancing work with rest,” Li Hao replied with a smile.

Hearing Li Hao’s words, even those who were resigned to their fate felt a jolt of speechlessness.

“We thought we had come to terms with it, but it turns out Qingfeng’s even tougher. The Immortal Path is cut off, so what if one becomes a Saint? Eventually, you will end up just like us.”

Ye Ancestor smiled bitterly, “I didn’t understand until I was 3,000 years old, but Qingfeng understood at the age of 30, does that mean he gets to enjoy life an extra 3,000 years?”

The group was struck dumb, though now they had shifted their focus elsewhere and were not so keen on cultivation, Li Hao’s enlightenment at such a young age truly left them at a loss for words.
