Volume 3 - Chapter 33: Bestowal of the Divine General - Part 2

A few days later, in the main hall of the Black and White Hall within the Tangong Academy.

The imperial edict from the capital spread across the entire realm, eventually reaching Qingzhou.

When the edict arrived, Song Yufeng was utterly stunned.

He had heard about the Merit Treasury—it had caused quite a stir lately. Many disciples of Tangong Academy were eager to venture into the River of Death ...

"But these exchanges are too costly! A chance to reverse fate requires ten thousand merits. Even with the Wang Family's accumulated efforts, they have barely reached that amount!"

"To destroy a Netherworld-Level River of Death ten times is the only way to accumulate ten thousand achievements."

"If it's a Yinsha-Level River of Death, it would take a hundred instances!"

Yu Huang's eyes gleamed...

Volume 3 - Chapter 32: The Merit Treasury, Who is Chong Er? - Part 2

Subduing a demon king was incredibly challenging. For example, the first Sacred Palace Master of Tangong had, centuries ago, only managed to reach an agreement with Song Qiumo rather than establishing a true master-servant relationship.

In contrast, the Divine General Mansion of the Xia family was said to favor subduing demon kings. The Xia matriarch was especially skilled in taming demons. Most territor...

Li Hao’s expression changed slightly. Hearing the other party’s casual yet confident tone, it was clear that denying it any further was unnecessary.

On Li Hao’s wrist, the blood-colored vine ring stirred, a blood tendril rising like a cowlick. It seemed to be eavesdropping on the conversation between Li Hao and Ji Yunge.

Ji family?

The Scarlet Blood Vine Demon King was startled. Having lingered ...

If this were a conflict between other tribes, the Scarlet Blood Vine Demon King might not have made such a desperate choice. Amid the chaos of battle, it could still cling to a sliver of hope for escape. But now, standing before him, there was no such hope at all.

In such a scenario, it really might resort to extreme measures.

Li Hao pondered for a moment before saying, “Then let me taste your ...

Golden divine blood sprayed fiercely from Qin Tianchen's neck.

At this moment, though still in his Divine Force state, Qin Tianchen’s head was brutally shattered by a single punch from Li Hao!

The scene left the crowd near the cliff utterly silent.

Among them, a few figures of exceptional stature were stricken speechless with shock, unable to believe what they had just witnessed.

Two elders of the Qin Family, though wary and filled with doubt, refused to be intimidated by Li Hao’s presence and shouted angrily to probe him further.

Ji Yunge, who had been concealed on Li Hao's person the entire time without revealing himself, smiled as he witnessed Li Hao swiftly dispatch the Qin family's junior.

A short man let out a miserable scream, staring at Li Hao in horror. Even if the other party was prepared, should his close-range ambush have been so easily blocked?

But it was blocked—by some monstrous strength!

The short man was stunned. He couldn’t discern Li Hao’s cultivation aura, but judging by his age, step...

However, this was the way of the Desolate Era's heavenly talents. Slaying a Demon King under adverse circumstances might shock the barbarians beyond the wilderness, but in the Great Wilderness Heaven, it was merely considered excellent.

Even so, he knew that Li Hao’s true strength was far beyond this. Hence, even within the Ancient Holy Clans, Li Hao was enough to be deemed a heavenly talent. This...

Li Muxiu's body trembled slightly, but he remained standing there, silent.

Li Xiaoran struggled to free his arm, but he couldn’t break free. He glanced at his second brother, only to see extreme sorrow in those eyes. The sight shook him, clearing his mind slightly.

Looking down at Li Tiangang, whose aura was weakening as blood drenched his entire body, Li Xiaoran stared blankly, lost in thought. Finally, he clutched his h...

As for what type of clone Li Hao's was, it was currently impossible to determine.

After Li Hao’s body was torn apart and disappeared, he felt his consciousness being shredded as well. It merged into the heavens and earth and began to melt away, bit by bit, like snow under the sun.
