The Name of Eternity

Chapter 427: Once you reach the top, you will feel free in the sky

After getting acquainted with the Flower Saint and the Traveling Saint, the Second Saint also learned that Li Hao was a member of the Flower Traveling Club.

"Zhantan... I remember that little girl. She was the one who recruited you. She has such a good eye." The Flower Saint chuckled, and the butterfly accessories above his head seemed to be flying, gently flapping their wings.

"It's a blessing that those little guys are still alive. If you practice diligently and hard, you may not be able to live for such a long time. Practice means fighting, and fighting will lead to defeat..."

There was nostalgia and aftertaste in You Sheng's eyes, and she glanced at the Tongtian Palace in the distance. She sighed softly and said:

"When we first saw the world closed, we became disheartened and stopped practicing. We claimed to have seen the essence of practice clearly. Now here we have a glimpse of the sky beyond the sky, but like them, we strive for the upper reaches and want to win over the Immortal Emperor's orthodoxy. The so-called no fight, It’s just that the temptation isn’t tempting enough…”

As he spoke, he looked a little lonely.

Li Hao smiled and said, "You don't have to pursue it deliberately. Just follow your heart. If you want it, you just want it. You don't have to pretend that you don't want it."

You Sheng looked back at Li Hao, his eyes a little brighter, and a slight smile appeared on his face that was as moving as clear snow, "You are right, that would be too pretentious."

The three of them looked at each other and laughed at the same time.

"Listen to what Mr. Wang said, you are the eternal Taoist heart that makes the world ring nine times. It's hard to imagine what kind of Taoist heart you are. Your talent must be far better than mine. You have great hope in this Immortal Emperor Taoism. When the time comes, If we become the registered disciples of the Immortal Emperor, we can also take advantage of you and go to the real world."

Hua Sheng said to Li Hao, his eyes were sincere and he was very optimistic about Li Hao.

You Sheng is also extremely optimistic about this new evildoer. They felt anxious before not knowing Li Hao's identity, but now they feel relaxed.

Li Hao was about to speak when suddenly a saint beside him solemnly said: "Shepherd Saint is going to challenge again!"

The Flower Saint and the Traveling Saint also looked at it immediately, and saw the Snow-haired Shepherd Saint sitting on the futon in front of him. He stood up slowly. His expression was invisible, but his back was extremely calm and seemed to be particularly dignified.

The opponent stood up, paused for a moment, and then flew towards the front of the dojo.

In front of the dojo, apart from the heavenly and earthly bells, there is a steep black tower further away.

The Shepherd flew to the black tower, the tower door automatically opened, and he stepped inside.

"It seems that the Shepherd has been a little stimulated."

"Nonsense, who hasn't been stimulated? My gun skills are a bit messed up."

"I wonder if Shepherd can break the record this time and hold on longer."

The other saints opened their eyes slightly and stared at the black tower. Many of them glanced towards Li Hao from time to time when they were talking.

Li Hao's arrival was like a falling boulder in a calm lake, causing huge waves in their hearts. The shock brought by the nine sounds of heaven and earth was too unprecedented.

"They all care about you."

You Sheng pursed her lips slightly and chuckled, but her eyes flickered around Li Hao. Speaking of caring, how could she and Hua Sheng not care about this young man? It was so amazing.

Li Hao smiled bitterly and didn't say anything.

At this time, Hua Sheng pinched his fingertips, and a stick of incense appeared, burning on its own, and the cigarette curled up.

"This is?"

"Help Sheng Sheng record the duration of his challenge and see if he can break the previous record and improve." Flower Sheng said.

Li Hao understood in his heart and waited quietly.

When the incense in the flower saint's hand burned to two-thirds, the black tower suddenly opened, and the snow-haired shepherd saint walked out of it, his face a little gloomy, and he silently returned to the dojo.

"Slightly shorter than last time."

The Flower Saint glanced at the incense in his hand, pinched it with his fingers, and the incense disappeared. A smile appeared on his lips, "It seems that your arrival has confused many people."

Li Hao was speechless.

Everyone else also noticed this, shook their heads slightly, glanced at Li Hao, and then continued to practice with their eyes closed.

You Sheng said to Li Hao: "You don't have to worry about it. Come on, we won't delay you anymore."

Li Hao nodded slightly. When Flower Saint and Wandering Saint were preparing to practice, he also took out his drawing board and started his own practice.

"What are you doing?"

When You Sheng caught a glimpse of Li Hao's actions, he couldn't help but be stunned, and then looked at Li Hao in slight astonishment.

Li Hao knew her thoughts and said with a smile: "Relax your mood first."

“…”

You Sheng was a little speechless, but he couldn't say anything. He just said: "Then when you finish the painting, show it to me. I also like this Tao."

Li Hao nodded.

After the Flower Saint and the Traveling Saint practiced respectively in the capital, he also devoted himself seriously to painting.

Painting ten sections, he already has his own holy way. His paintings contain the profound power of heaven and earth and the traces of the great way. At this moment, when he started to paint, Li Hao glanced away. If he painted the saints around him, it would be inevitable that the great way would interfere with them. , It affects their practice and is a bit offensive.

But in addition to figures, he can also paint scenes.

Li Hao looked at the Hongzhong of Heaven and Earth in front of him, his eyes flashed, and he immediately started to draw.

On the drawing board, he splashed ink, and the ink condensed and attracted the majestic energy of heaven and earth. During the outline, the avenue was attracted and condensed in the traces of his pen and ink.

With a few strokes, the avenues converged, and the outline of a Hong Zhong faintly emerged.

Along with the appearance of the Hongzhong of Heaven and Earth, there seems to be an extraordinary charm emanating from it.

Li Hao's eyes became more and more focused, and his mind was immersed in the painting. The red bells in his paintings became clearer and more similar. As a bell suddenly rang in his ears, Li Hao felt a surging power coming out of the painting paper. That power It went straight to his heart, and three bells rang in his heart one after another!

Every time the bell rang and vibrated, Li Hao's soul seemed to be condensed and strengthened.

It's a pity that his physical body is made of ninth-level mixed-source divine blood, which is equivalent to a piece of divine armor. It is permanently fixed and cannot be improved, otherwise the physical body will inevitably bring about changes.

"Um?"

Flower Saint and Traveling Saint, who were not far from Li Hao, both opened their eyes, and other saints also looked over.

Just as they were practicing, they suddenly heard a roar in their hearts. They thought someone was testing the Hong Zhong of Heaven and Earth again, but when they opened their eyes, they found the aura of the Hong Zhong of Heaven and Earth emerging around them. When they turned around and looked over, they saw Li Hao sitting on the futon. , holding the pen, the tip of the pen condenses thousands of elegant avenues.

The great avenues gathered around the young man, and in front of him, the shadow of the bell of heaven and earth was suspended in mid-air, like a reflected projection.

"This is?"

Everyone was surprised. If they read correctly, the other party was painting?

"he…"

You Sheng's beautiful eyes widened and she felt a little surprised. She could see that Li Hao seemed to have entered the Tao through painting. This was by no means a simple interest, and he might even be a sacrifice to the Tao.

In front of the house, Mr. Wang shook the fan in his hand and the rocking chair swayed gently. He looked at the movement on the futon with a hint of surprise in his eyes, and then a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. That little guy was really unexpected. , claiming to master the art of swordsmanship, it turned out that he also had the unique skill of painting.

At this time, the pen and ink in Li Hao's hand did not stop. As it was splashed, the avenue condensed, and the heaven and earth bells also bloomed with rays of light.

The Hong Zhong of Heaven and Earth in front of the dojo suddenly seemed to burst out with dazzling light, complementing the Hong Zhong of Heaven and Earth painted by Li Hao.

Everyone was shocked when they saw this scene.

Except for the test of Taoist heart, the bells of heaven and earth are always still, without any breath showing. At this moment, they are actually being pulled by the shadow drawn by Li Hao. This young man's paintings are too amazing!

"Should he become a saint through painting? Should he be called a painting saint?"

"Not to mention, among the ten thousand immortal arts, there is also the Tao of Painting, which shows that there is indeed this school of practice in the real world."

"He actually became a saint through sacrifice. This understanding is quite powerful. It seems that this newcomer is indeed a monster." Everyone stared at Li Hao, paying more and more attention to Li Hao, and felt more and more urgent in their hearts.

Previously, Mu Sheng and Ming Sheng were far ahead, but they could see their progress and even had a glimmer of hope of catching up.

But Li Hao's stunning performance made them feel a strong crisis.

As the majestic light on the bell of heaven and earth dissipated, Li Hao's painting also stopped. He closed his eyes at some point and was immersed in perception.

The drawing just now gave him a glimpse of fairy spirit.

I also realized my own shortcomings in painting.

Being able to detect deficiencies is a huge improvement. If you can't find the deficiencies, that's when you really hit a bottleneck.

"The paintings... are similar in shape and spirit, but they are not real. What is the authenticity..."

"The true nature of immortality..."

"What is immortality..."

Many thoughts are intertwined in my mind, including confusion, a moment of enlightenment, and an anxiety that I want to capture but cannot.

After a long time, Li Hao slowly opened his eyes and saw a prompt popping up in front of him. The experience of painting the path increased by tens of millions, directly filling up one-fifth of the experience bar.

Li Hao was shocked. This was the most experience he had ever gained in painting.

You know, the painting saint only had 300,000 experiences before.

This is ten million!

Moreover, the gold content of experience in tenth-dan painting is one level higher than that of eight-dan and nine-dan.

The Hong Zhong in front of me is most likely not only an immortal treasure, but also an extremely extraordinary level.

However, the promotion of painting skills from the tenth level to the eleventh level requires a lot of experience. Previously, he cooked corpses on ancient roads for twelve years before accumulating perfection. Now, here, the experience in painting skills has increased rapidly.

"I didn't expect you to become a saint through painting. It's amazing."

At this time, the voice of the wandering saint came from the side.

Li Hao turned to look and smiled. It can indeed be said that in the battle of the Supreme Prodigy, he used the holy blood as ink and the sky as the canvas, breaking through ten levels of painting in one fell swoop, and then added some points to become a saint instantly.

"Looking at you, you should be able to pass the first test soon."

Hua Sheng said with some emotion in his eyes, seeing that Li Hao's talent was too strong.

The two of them briefly exchanged a few words with Li Hao, and then started practicing again. As saints, how could they really lag behind others.

Li Hao also put away the Hong Zhong of Heaven and Earth he had just painted. He discovered that this was no longer a simple painting, but a Taoist soldier with some functions of the Hong Zhong of Heaven and Earth!

If we use Tao Heart to test, we can also test out the four Tao Hearts of Heaven, Earth, Xuanhuang.

But the higher chaotic Taoist heart seems to be unable to bear it.

And this also means that Li Hao's painting skills are not enough.

Li Hao once again painted directly using the heaven and earth in front of him as the canvas, the energy of the heaven and earth gathered casually condensed into ink, and the avenue as the brush.

With his freehand and free description, the second picture of the bells of heaven and earth also appeared again.

The bell rang, not only reverberating in Li Hao's heart, but also reverberating in the hearts of everyone around him.

Some saints opened their eyes and saw Li Hao's engrossed look. They also knew that Li Hao was not intentional and it was just the natural influence brought about by his practice. They immediately placed Dao realms around themselves to isolate his influence.

Soon, the second Hong Zhong of Heaven and Earth was painted, and Li Hao vaguely captured some insights, but it was not as obvious as the first time.

This time, the bell still rang four times, but the lingering sound of the fourth tone was longer.

Li Hao then painted the third and fourth paintings... With the appearance of paintings of Hong Zhong of Heaven and Earth, Li Hao's painting experience improved rapidly.

In just two days, Li Hao completed seven paintings, and his experience in painting has been completed.

But experience is easy to improve, but the state of mind is difficult to understand.

After painting, Li Hao no longer felt the same as before. He knew that he needed an opportunity, and this opportunity could not be brought about by simply continuing to paint repeatedly. It required certain changes and accidents to get it.

Li Hao stopped painting, got up, left the futon, and started walking around.

Seeing Li Hao moving around, Mr. Wang waved him over and told Li Hao some places he could and couldn't go.

The place you can stay here is not big. The giant Tongtian Palace in the distance cannot be climbed before passing the test. The steps outside Tianshang Palace can only be set foot in the true fairyland, otherwise they will be instantly shattered by the immortal power of the Emperor Palace. , the holy way perished.

Li Hao was a little bored and asked: "Senior, aren't you bored staying here all the time?"

"boring?"

Wang Lao smiled and said: "When you see all the prosperity, you will want to find a quiet place, stay alone, do nothing, think about nothing, then you will not feel bored, but I’ll feel very happy.”

Li Hao still couldn't understand the feeling he was talking about, because he still had many places he wanted to go to, many scenery he wanted to see, and many people he wanted to meet.

"Compared with those old guys, I am the happiest."

Wang Lao said softly, a touch of sadness flashed in his eyes, but it passed quickly, and he said with a smile: "Your soul life is too short, less than a hundred years, so it is normal for you to feel bored. Others have been here for a long, long time. ”

Li Hao nodded, looked at the fertile fields not far away, and suddenly thought of it, "Senior, how about you teach me how to farm?"

"Farming?"

Wang Lao was stunned, and when he saw Li Hao's gaze, he suddenly burst into laughter and said: "Don't you seize the opportunity to practice? Earlier you said that your Ten Thousand Immortal Techniques were optional swordsmanship, but you have been practicing painting in the past few days. I haven’t touched the Yama Immortal Technique yet.”

"Don't be in a hurry. Cultivation is not about mountain climbing. Once you reach the top, you will be at ease in the sky."

Li Hao said with a smile.

Wang Lao had obviously never heard of such a statement, but after thinking about it for a while, he felt that it made some sense.

However, it is an ordinary practice. Once a peerless evildoer suddenly realizes it, he may not need to practice hard day and night. However, this is the method of the immortal way. Those who are not truly talented evildoers cannot suddenly realize it. They can only rely on hard practice day and night to improve their proficiency and ability. Learn step by step to break through the final bottleneck.

"There are two kinds of people in the world. One is one who can see the end point with his eyes without moving his feet. This kind is called a genius. The other is one who can only see the tip of his toe. He travels long distances day and night, and finally passes the tip of his toe. With Yu Guang, these are the diligent ones who keep going to the end.”

Wang Lao said meaningfully: "Those who come and go here were once geniuses, but in front of the immortal method, they can only catch a glimpse of the light on their toes. If they don't have the courage and perseverance to travel long distances and give up halfway, that is the third type. No talent, no hard work, just a piece of mud halfway through.”

Li Hao heard the advice in his words and smiled: "But there is a fourth kind of person, and that is standing there, not wanting to go anywhere, not wanting to take a step."

Wang Lao was stunned for a moment when he saw the smile on Li Hao's face. The bright feeling made him feel dazed for a moment.

He suddenly remembered the Taoist heart of the other party, what his heart wanted, his actions followed, and the unity of knowledge and action transcended the holy way.

The other party has such a Taoist heart and has such a mentality.

He felt relieved and laughed: "Will this fourth type of person you mentioned turn the starting point into the ending point?"

"The so-called end point is set by oneself. Some people's end point is to cross a river, some people's end point is to climb a mountain, and my end point is to stand where I am, and then quietly watch them run under the sunset. ”

Li Hao said with a smile.
