Chapter 1015: Chapter 210 Leaving and Defending (7K)_4
As they departed, the place suddenly seemed a bit desolate.
Li Hao looked at the silent land and the gray sky; this was the scenery Nangong Jian had felt for countless ages.
With a soft sigh, he approached the remnants of the Ancient Demon Commander and collected all the pieces of flesh into the Heaven and Earth Space.
The fragments of the Ancient Demon contained waves of Soul Power; though it was dead, Li Hao could still feel the extremely vigorous power inside.
Given his current cooking ability, he might not be able to cook and prepare them.
Li Hao tried, using the incomplete Immortal Soldier in his hand to pierce the flesh, but found it was like a wooden sword stabbing a rock, unable to leave even a wound.
At this moment, Li Hao also felt the terrifying power of the Red Tassel Spear Woman, able to kill the Ancient Demon Commander within minutes.
Collecting these pieces of flesh, he temporarily threw them into the Heaven and Earth Space. Li Hao did not follow the advice of the Red Tassel Spear Woman to return immediately to the Mystical Gate; instead, he drove the bronze chariot into the canyon and waited in front of the Mystical Gate.
He planned to leave once the other side sent someone to guard, in case any remnants of Ancient Demons came to destroy the Mystical Gate, he could kill them.
This Dao Gate has stood for countless ages, partly due to Nangong Jian’s efforts to fend off some Ancient Demon invasions outside the canyon.
Otherwise, the relentless attacks and losses of the Ancient Demons would quickly render the Mystical Gate ineffective.
He stayed not far from the Mystical Gate, able to swiftly return to the Land of All Saints if an Ancient Demon Commander arrived.
Thus, Li Hao buried hidden lines around the area.
His skill in laying lines became increasingly adept. Li Hao spent a great deal of effort studying them; while these hidden lines couldn’t harm the Ancient Demon Commander, they might serve as a warning for himself.
Time flew by.
Since the Red Tassel Spear Woman took Nangong Jian away, the outside of the canyon remained calm, with no other Ancient Demons appearing.
The fall of the Ancient Demon Commander might have temporarily cleared this Ancient Road.
Li Hao mirrored his figure, quietly sneaking outside the canyon, exploring the Ancient Demon Territory, discovering that the Demon Territories he and Nangong Jian hadn’t wiped out were all lifeless, scattered with Ancient Demons’ corpses.
It seemed the Red Tassel Spear Woman had slain them before she left.
With so many Ancient Demon corpses, Li Hao was somewhat delighted, using his figure to transport them back.
Thus, he cooked outside the Mystical Gate, ate and drank every day, buried hidden lines for leisure, and engaged in Carving.
Half a year passed in a blink.
Li Hao had not yet seen the person the Red Tassel Spear Woman sent to take over the guard duties, making him somewhat worried. Given that the Ancient Road was cleared, someone should be sent to guard soon, but months had passed without any sign. Could something unexpected have happened during their departure?
Li Hao couldn’t help but worry about Nangong Jian’s situation, but being here, aside from needless worry, he couldn’t do anything, so he had to shift his focus elsewhere.
In the past six months, Li Hao ate nearly two hundred Ancient Demons alone, strengthening his Primordial Spirit Power, accumulating thicker immortal power in his body.
Under Ultimate Immortal Transformation, when this immortal power was released and transformed into Heaven and Earth Energy, Li Hao felt he could easily overwhelm Third Rank Ancient Demons, even without relying on Primordial Spirit and the incomplete soldier. Just channeling this power into the Eternal Dao Domain would suffice to suppress them to death.
Time stretched on; Li Hao waited another half year, condensing over a hundred golden-colored veins within himself.
Li Hao estimated that in two more years, he would be able to condense the Divine Bone of a third Primordial Spirit.
Still holding many Ancient Demon corpses, if he ate them all, Li Hao felt he could at least condense the fourth Divine Bone, maybe even the fifth.
Each Divine Bone significantly enhanced Li Hao’s Primordial Spirit Power, nearly doubling its boost.
Complemented by the Controlling Objects Immortal Technique taught by Nangong Jian, his object control speed was unimaginably fast, surpassing even the Returning Ruins Extreme Realm!
In the same realm, a mere thought could suppress with objects.
After living alone here for a year, Li Hao began to miss the Land of All Saints, wanting to return, yet the guard mentioned by the Red Tassel Spear Woman remained unseen.
Li Hao felt some frustration, intuitively sensing something wrong had occurred with them.
Suddenly!
One day, while Li Hao was dining, he felt a hidden line disappear, a certain power wave snapping the hidden line.
He narrowed his eyes, packed away the freshly made delicacy, and approached the Mystical Gate, concealing his aura and silently releasing his Divine Sense to observe.
With a rushing sound, a trace of an Ancient Demon abruptly appeared above the canyon.
This Ancient Demon was several hundred zhang in size, a Third Rank Ancient Demon.
Li Hao’s expression changed slightly, hiding behind a rock, not revealing himself.
But the Ancient Demon seemed to see the Mystical Gate, immediately growling excitedly, diving down.
Soon, it landed before the Mystical Gate.
Its gaze immediately noticed the gap in the pattern, making it excited.
At once, it moved forward, attempting to enter and explore the gap.
At that moment, a sharp flash suddenly struck.
The Ancient Demon reacted instantly, emitting a startled scream, but the sound stopped abruptly.
The speed of the incomplete soldier was too fast, instantly killing its body, followed by Primordial Spirit suppression, directly dispersing its Primordial Spirit.
A Third Rank Ancient Demon, in front of Li Hao, could now be slain with a casual effort.
“Damn, did it wander in from somewhere else? Could it be that the war outside has already quieted down?”
Li Hao stepped out from behind the rock, his face somewhat grim. The Ancient Demon Territories before were all silent; this Ancient Demon must have come from outside.
And for it to wander here rather than head to the front lines might indicate the war might not need it anymore, that it has quieted down.
“This gap, Second-order Ancient Demons cannot enter, but Third Rank Ancient Demons can sneak in. Previously, Nangong Jian guarded the canyon outside, but now without him here, and no one sent by the Female General yet, Ancient Demons could come here at any time and sneak in through this gap.”
Li Hao furrowed his brow tightly, contemplating returning. Waiting without seeing the sent guards, he felt somewhat bored here.
He wanted to go back, maybe fish or play chess with someone, but if he returned now, this gap would remain exposed. Should a Third Rank Ancient Demon arrive and enter the Fake Realm, it would undoubtedly bring disaster.
Especially if this information was revealed, an invasion by hundreds of Third Rank Ancient Demons would be an unimaginable calamity for the Land of All Saints!
Li Hao sat back down at his previous spot, frowning, worried by these thoughts, but still quickly took out the freshly made delicacy; good food cannot be wasted.
After eating, Li Hao’s mood slightly improved; he stared at the gap, his mind turning, starting to study the pattern on it.
The best solution would be to repair this gap.
But repairing it might be as difficult as becoming a True Immortal.
After all, the Mystical Gate was the handiwork of the Immortal Emperor, constructed by them, though severely worn over countless ages, its standing till now showed its incredible nature.
Time flies.
In the following days, besides eating and drinking, Li Hao focused on studying the pattern on the Mystical Gate. When tired of research, he carved to relax.
Now, his Carving skill faintly touched the Ninth Rank Heart Realm; what he carved held extraordinary Conception.
