"It's been almost a year, do you plan to keep waiting?"Dao Origin Immortal Emperor asked casually with a smile.
Li Hao picked up the chess piece somewhat dejectedly and returned it to the chess box without a thought, saying:
"I'll wait. She'll definitely come."
Dao Origin Immortal Emperor nodded slightly, not believing that the young lady would break her promise. After all, she's crossed ten thousand years, what's a small distance?
"But if you stay here for a year and then go to comprehend Chaotic Star, I'm afraid you'll lose to your elder sister Lingshu."
Without lifting his head, Li Hao casually replied, "Losing is fine, we're of the same sect, there's no need to compete for superiority."
Dao Origin Immortal Emperor paused for a moment, then smiled slightly. Even though his attempt to motivate failed, he felt oddly satisfied with Li Hao's words.
"Your tea-making skills are quite good, but your tea seeds lack quality. I'll give you two Ancient Demon Tea Seeds later, which should greatly benefit you."
Dao Origin Immortal Emperor commented with a meaningful hint after tasting the tea.
Li Hao paused, instantly realizing his master had noticed something, and curiously asked, "Ancient Demon Tea Seeds?"
"These are two fine Divine Teas planted in the chest cavity of an Immortal King Ancient Demon, absorbing the demon's essence blood and soul thought. The tea is tainted but should have a unique flavor."
Dao Origin Immortal Emperor explained.
Li Hao was taken aback, using the corpse of an Immortal King Ancient Demon as soil to plant tea trees?
Such a method is rather brutal, if the Ancient Demon Clan found out, they'd likely be enraged.
And if they knew they were used as food ingredients, they'd certainly be furious too.
Another month passed in a flash.
Li Hao's Artistic Path and Carving Arts experience bars were nearly half full.
Dao Origin Immortal Emperor agreed to Li Hao's request without hesitation, using Su Jiuzhe's example to quietly serve as material for Li Hao, greatly accelerating his Artistic Path and Carving Arts experience growth.
As Li Hao brought cakes and tea to the grand hall again, just as he set everything down, Dao Origin Immortal Emperor said:
"It seems the person you've been waiting for has arrived."
Li Hao was startled.
Soon after, a familiar and robust aura appeared outside the hall.
It's Shi Miao!
Li Hao immediately reacted, his heart filled with excitement, and dashed out of the hall to see Shi Miao arriving.
Shi Miao too was filled with excitement upon seeing Li Hao. Though separated for just a year, it felt like a millennium, as she threw herself into Li Hao's arms, saying:
"Have you waited long?"
"It's alright, it's only been a year."
Li Hao replied.
Shi Miao wanted to say more but suddenly remembered something, hurriedly tidying up her attire, then bowed deeply towards Dao Origin Immortal Emperor in the hall, saying:
"Younger Shi Miao pays respect to Dao Origin Immortal Emperor, thank you for the great kindness of saving my life!"
Dao Origin Immortal Emperor sat before the chessboard, his elbow casually resting on his knee, saying: "I've taken your beloved as a direct disciple, you don't mind, do you?"
Shi Miao froze, blushing as she replied: "As long as he is willing, I have no objections."
"You little girl, back then your master introduced so many talented individuals hoping to pass on your lineage, yet you refused all, your intentions were here all along."
Dao Origin Immortal Emperor shook his head slightly, reminiscing those past events with a touch of amusement.
Shi Miao's eyes showed a hint of sorrow upon hearing these words, thinking of her fallen master:
"He foresaw the great calamity coming to the world, yet didn't anticipate his own fall, nor expected the Heavenly Emperor to be such a vile person..."
Mentioning Southern Domain Venerable, her eyes revealed a trace of hatred.
Dao Origin Immortal Emperor gazed quietly into the void, saying: "How could you know he hadn't anticipated his fall? Perhaps he willingly accepted it. Without his sacrifice, the Southern Domain would not be as it is now, and indeed, that Heavenly Emperor is disappointing."
He shook his head slightly as he spoke.
Shi Miao was stunned; did her master foresee his own demise?
She fell silent suddenly, yes, perhaps the master knew all along and was merely defying the calamity.
"Now that you're here in the Primordial True Realm, don't waste time. Off you go."
Dao Origin Immortal Emperor waved them off.
Upon hearing this, Shi Miao immediately bowed deeply with a solemn look, then exited the hall with Li Hao in hand.
"Let's go to Chaotic Star, have you decided which one to visit?"
Shi Miao asked.
Li Hao knew that the sixty-nine Chaotic Stars were all different, and people often choose the star that aligns best with their highest Tao comprehension for rapid progress.
"Wherever you go, I'll go." Li Hao replied.
Shi Miao couldn't help smiling, saying: "I'm here to accompany you, so of course, I'll go wherever you go. Then again, we'll need to comprehend them all eventually, it doesn't matter which one we start with."
As she spoke, she drew an arc with her hand, and a space-time array appeared before them:
"When comprehending on Chaotic Star, there's an Immortal King guarding against the Chaos Domain above. Let me protect you there."
Li Hao looked at her in surprise, only to realize her aura had changed; she was no longer in the Immortal Monarch Realm but had become an Immortal King!
"Your realm has risen?"
"Hmm."
Li Hao asked no more, knowing Shi Miao's realm advancement was beyond ordinary.
The two entered the space-time array together.
The space-time origin alternated around them, and soon the array opened again, revealing a steep Sword Peak ahead.
This was a true Sword Peak, with an appearance identical to a sword, sharp on both sides, and the mountain edges were thin as blades.
Despite the thinness, the sand and stone remained gathered, held together by Tao Law.
Li Hao marveled at this sight, turning his gaze, noticing the flowers and plants at the foot of the mountain unbelievably resembled swords, all standing upright and incredibly sharp.
Some flowers and plants not only looked like swords but also resembled spears or strangely twisted, much like reflections bent underwater.
