“Is this a case of a hero recognizing another hero? Wu Tian is very strong too, the oppressive presence of his Dharma Aspect nearly left me breathless just now.”
“It’s a pity that the Eternal Dao Domain is truly terrifying. The ultimate suppression of the Dao Domain is nearly unsolvable!”
“In just a hundred years, who could cultivate to the Eighth Extreme Realm? Using it here is simply akin to bullying the weak with sheer strength.”
“Speaking of bullying the weak, isn’t Haotian the actual ‘young’ one at 28 years old?”
“Actually, I knew Wu Tian would be defeated from the beginning, his name itself shows it – Haotian has one more stroke than his!”
The crowd was all talking and laughing.
In the Law Sect Sacred Land, many disciples wore cold expressions. They knew that while Wu Tian Saint was strong, he was not the strongest leader of their sacred land. The most formidable was Qiu Tianlu’s Saint Child. When he enters the fray, it will undoubtedly be a clash of titans.
“Unless these reincarnations of Saints break the Saint Dao Chains and release their past life’s power, it’s impossible for them to defeat him.”
In the waiting area, the Green Deer King’s gaze flickered. He was previously humiliated by Li Hao, but now, as Li Hao demonstrated his terrifying power, his feeling of humiliation somewhat faded away.
Although his heart bore hatred, the idea of revenge seemed unnecessary, only blaming his own inferior skill.
Seeing Li Hao winning smoothly, Ji and others looked at him with congratulatory gazes while Hong smiled, continuing to wait quietly for the following bouts.
Before long, the third round ended and the fourth round of matchups began.
This time, Li Hao peered intently at the tokens twirling and fluttering, chaotic within the laws. When it ended, the laws dissipated, leaving nothing out of the ordinary.
A trace of confusion flickered across Li Hao’s eyes, and at the same time, he also saw his next opponent.
Whoosh!
A burst of uproar like that of a pot boiling over erupted from the crowd.
In the waiting area, Wu Tian’s expression subtly changed, not expecting such a pinnacle contest to occur at this moment.
Haotian versus Qiu Tianlu!
Below the stage, many disciples from the Law Sect Sacred Land suddenly lit up with excitement.
While Wu Tian’s defeat had cast a shadow over their Holy Land’s honor, they did not expect their opponent to immediately face Qiu Tianlu’s Saint Child.
He is the strongest Heavenly Pride of their Law Sect Sacred Land, a reincarnation of a Saint, having been reborn to rectify the Laws, and was extremely terrifying.
Hearing the many discussions in the crowd, Li Hao slightly raised an eyebrow. Another tough bone to chew on, and seemingly an especially tough one at that.
His gaze swept across the area to the opponent of the Twin Buddha Child, and it was Lin Qingyue.
While Lin Qingyue’s Nihility Sword Dao was strong, the Twin Buddha Child had the embryonic form of the Saint Dao and was already equivalent to a Semi-Saint. Most likely, he would win this battle.
As Li Hao frowned, Qiu Tianlu, clad in pristine white robes, looked over at Li Hao. Seeing the frown on that young face, he couldn’t help but let out a faint smile.
He hadn’t expected to encounter him here so soon.
But since they had met, he would show no mercy.
This was a good opportunity to rectify the laws, to make the opponent understand what one’s rank dictates one should do, and that all things in the world ought to abide by their own Laws.
“Something’s not right.”
Outside the crowd, Feng Boping and Lie Sky Saint stood together, frowning.
If it were just one or two battles, that could still be written off, but encountering direct disciples of Supreme Saints, all prominent Heavenly Prides, in all four matches—such luck is just too terrible.
If Li Hao really had such bad luck, he wouldn’t have been able to cultivate to this extent.
“It might be that baldy playing tricks…”
Lie Sky Saint narrowed his eyes, glancing at the Buddha Venerate with a compassionate smile.
“You mean, his Great Cause and Effect Skill?”
Feng Boping’s eyes sharpened as a flicker of lethal intent crossed them.
It was supposed to be a fair competition, but using such means to cheat covertly would make Li Hao’s journey in the top hundred grueling.
“No, the Great Cause and Effect Skill leaves traces that could be discovered. If it were used, the other Supreme Saints would certainly notice and intervene. After all, for such a grand event, if cheating could be so blatantly carried out, there’d be no point in holding it.”
Lie Sky Saint shook his head, his eyes flickering, “I’ve heard of an ancient legacy of Buddha magic in the Buddhist sects, called Fate…”
“Fate?”
Feng Boping was slightly taken aback.
“Exactly, the Great Destiny Skill, akin to the power of the Defying Fate Realm, and its effects are even stronger. It can change one’s destiny at any time. If they were to use this method, even Supreme Saints couldn’t detect it, for fate is fickle and tied to the Heavenly Dao. Unless one could comprehend the Heavenly Dao, it is impossible to see the traces of Fate…”
Lie Sky Saint spoke softly.
Feng Boping was stunned, not expecting such a terrifying divine skill within Buddhism.
He could not help but look at the other, asking, “How did you come to know of this?”
“Don’t ask about that,” Lie Sky Saint shook his head, his brows furrowing, “It’s just a rumor, whether it’s true or not is uncertain. But if it is true, they likely used it against Haotian, suppressing his fate. In this Pride of Heaven Battle, his luck will be extremely poor, and he may even encounter even worse outcomes.”
Upon hearing this, Feng Boping’s expression turned grim, “I’ll go find the Source Saint.”
“No use. Even the Source Saint can’t change matters of Fate, and without any basis, this is just my opinion—which, as you know, doesn’t carry much credibility among All Saints. Only a fool like you would believe it.”
Lie Sky Saint shook his head.
Feng Boping was taken aback, his face darkening, “So we can only stand by and do nothing?”
“It appears so.”
Lie Sky Saint spoke softly, “Now we can only rely on him to withstand it. Fortunately, he’s been performing well. In my opinion, he truly deserves to be the first among All Heavens.”
“Even if he becomes the first among All Heavens, facing rounds of challenging matches before the top ten battles, who can withstand it?”
Feng Boping clenched his fists slightly, eyes revealing anger and a trace of helplessness, “If it were any other Heavenly Pride who could claim the title of first among All Heavens, their master would certainly protect and cherish them. How could they let him suffer such grievances? I’m just too incompetent!”
