Chapter 965: Chapter 201 Chaos Divine Fire_2

Li Hao spoke again.

If he went along with the other’s words, seeking cooperation and discussing only benefits while ignoring past grievances, even if he spent an enormous amount of effort persuading, the other party wouldn’t believe him. It would be meaningless.

“Oh?”

The Mixed Heaven Saint’s face turned icy cold: “You’re saying this just to stop me from seeking the Dragon Saint? You want me to give it up? Do you think that, in a one-on-one fight, I can’t do anything to you?!”

“What else?”

Li Hao displayed an utterly confident demeanor, saying, “Though you are a Supreme Saint, it seems that’s all you amount to. If you truly had the power to kill me, why would you need to bow your head to the Dragon Saint? Before facing you in battle, I didn’t realize I was this strong either.”

The Mixed Heaven Saint’s breathing grew heavier; his claws made cracking sounds as he clenched them tightly. Li Hao’s words were infuriating beyond measure.

“I intended to hold back, to prepare for the Source Ancestor and the Divine King, yet you truly think I can’t kill you? You’re too foolish!”

The Mixed Heaven Saint’s gaze was filled with a cruel and frigid savagery. “You shouldn’t have angered me. Do you even understand what capabilities Sacrificial Dao possesses after reaching the Three Calamities? Do you know why Ritual Path to Saint Ascension is the hardest? It’s because it’s the strongest of all!!”

As he spoke, his entire body suddenly erupted with crimson-golden Divine Flame, and the armor covering him burned fiercely with a steaming glow of Divine Blood. Multicolored shadows flowed within, and his aura continued to climb, surpassing the previous peak and growing even stronger.

Li Hao froze, his expression subtly shifting.

He could sense that the Mixed Heaven Saint before him seemed to be doing something utterly insane.

“What is Sacrificial Dao… It is the peak of Dao cultivation, offered as a sacrifice to the Heavenly Dao, feeding back into creation, and earning the Heavenly Dao’s bestowed power!”

“That is true Heavenly Dao Power, not merely a borrowed reflection!”

The Mixed Heaven Saint spoke coldly and deliberately. His physical body began cracking and swelling. A Saint forged through the Physical Body Dao, he was now using his body as a sacrifice to the Heavenly Dao. From within him emerged a vast and supreme Heavenly Dao power!

This power froze time around them, suspended the raging winds, and made it seem as though all creation submitted to his control, swelling with his fury, solidifying with his coldness.

“After consuming you, I’ll recover my strength. But mere consumption would lose its meaning; it’d be a waste—yet, you’ve provoked me!”

The Mixed Heaven Saint’s battle blade surged in power, and Tribulation Power exploded outward like soaring knife beams, oppressing the air until it roared with thunder and lightning.

Li Hao’s expression darkened. The other was now employing self-destructive methods to kill. This was the opponent’s final trump card.

“Die!”

The Mixed Heaven Saint no longer hesitated, swinging his blade violently. The manic blade beams pierced through the heavens and earth, slashing directly toward Li Hao with a force tenfold stronger than before!

What was already terrifying now rampaged even further, enough to annihilate Li Hao’s Eternal Dao in mere moments, tear his physical body apart, and obliterate his Dao Physique completely!

Such overwhelming force caused cold sweat to pour from Li Hao’s body. Yet, he didn’t retreat; he didn’t waver. He understood this was a mortal duel—it was either the Mixed Heaven Saint’s death or his own demise!

“Heavenly Dao… then let’s see whose Heavenly Dao is stronger!”

Li Hao’s eyes suddenly snapped wide open, shooting out piercingly cold light. Two concealed Saint Dao powers—Incense Fire and Extreme Dao—burst forth from within him simultaneously.

These forces merged into his physical body, combining with Sacrificial Dao power. Heavenly Dao energy nurtured within his dantian surged rapidly throughout his body, aligning with him as though possessed, fusing seamlessly with his form.

“Fatian Xiangdi!!”

In this moment, Li Hao no longer held back. All Three Saints Powers were revealed; there was no point in hiding other techniques anymore.

As Fatian Xiangdi erupted, his physical body was unleashed completely. His frame grew immense, towering, with feet vast enough to level mountain peaks.

At the instant he unleashed Fatian Xiangdi, a Heaven and Earth Law Manifestation emerged behind Li Hao. Before it fully extended, it rapidly fused with his body, generating an immeasurable and overwhelming force that seemed to overturn all existence. Even the Ancient Mountains around him trembled!

“Oh?!”

The Mixed Heaven Saint’s crimson, savage eyes instantly contracted at this sight, even revealing hints of clarity.

This damn brat had actually concealed more strength?!

That Saint Dao… Three Saint Daos?!

Shock, disbelief, and incomprehension flooded the Mixed Heaven Saint’s gaze.

Throughout the ages within All Heavens, countless Saints had explored and perished, yet none had successfully achieved the fusion of three Saint Daos.

Even the Source Ancestor had failed.

But now, this miracle appeared before him—within the body of this monstrous youth.

In a sudden realization, he recalled that fleeting sense of unease earlier. His mind thundered with comprehension.

That was the scent of the opponent luring him backward with the Human Tribulation of his second Saint Dao!

In all his countless years, he had never seen anyone use Human Tribulation as bait to lure an enemy.

Most Saints treated Tribulations with utmost caution, seeking to avoid or carefully guard against them. Yet Li Hao wielded it as a weapon for slaying his foes!

“What kind of monster are you? Are you the reincarnation of an Immortal Divine?!”

The Mixed Heaven Saint murmured.

That pinnacle strike of Sacrificial Dao, the extreme blade, lashed out. Endless Tribulation Power rained down like a storm onto Li Hao.

But in the same instant, Li Hao swung the ancient sword technique—Immortal Guide.

This swordsmanship embodied three realms: Intent, Origin, End.

Previously, Li Hao had remained in the realm of Intent. Now, he unveiled traces of ‘Origin’. His Sword Intent pierced into the essence of things, as if a true Immortal Divine had descended.

This was driven purely by his boundless and infinite power. Under the fusion of Three Saints Powers and Heavenly Dao energy, Transform to Immortal seemed to advance even further. The faint trace of Celestial Venerable Will he had sensed earlier now grew strikingly closer. He could feel the Heavenly Dao, wield its power within him, and align his intention silently and fully with the Celestial Venerable Will.
