Chapter 857: Chapter 174: The Force of Destiny, Sword Dao for All Beings! (Guaranteed +4K additional 3)_4

Lie Sky Saint slightly fell into silence, and then said to him, “Don’t be too hard on yourself; we’ve already done our best.”

Feng Boping didn’t say much more, his gaze turned toward the waiting area, a look of worry in his eyes.

“That Qiu Tianlu, it is said that he has received the mantle of Holy Master of Law, personally transmitted by the Supreme Saint. He was once a Saint, and in both his past and present lives a disciple of the Holy Master of Law. Now that he is reborn to rebuild his cultivation, I fear he may be even more fearsome than the others.”

As they worried, on the battlefield above, the fourth round of confrontation began.

With the successive struggles of other Saint Heirs and saintesses, one intense bout after another passed, and it was soon time for the match between Li Hao and Qiu Tianlu.

As the confrontation of the two Saint Heirs in the previous match ended, and before they stepped down, the crowd below erupted in vigorous cheers.

Hearing these shouts, the two on the platform exchanged a glance, and both recognized the helplessness in each other’s eyes; compared to the two following them, they seemed to be merely supporting greenery.

Li Hao didn’t wait long; upon hearing his name called, he soared onto the battlefield.

On the other side, seeing Li Hao on stage, Qiu Tianlu slowly stood up. He was dressed in pure white, his robe emitting a faint silken glow, looking elegant and unworldly.

As he rose, the cheers at the venue climbed to a new crescendo.

Many disciples from the Law Sect bellowed with all their might:

“Victory is certain for Qiu Tianlu’s Saint Child!”

“The Saint Child is invincible, let them witness the power of the Law Sect!”

In the midst of the shouting, Qiu Tianlu’s expression remained indifferent, gracefully stepping onto the battlefield with an air of composure.

As he took his position, the Array congealed, sealing off the battlefield.

Li Hao and Qiu Tianlu stood at a distance, facing each other. Li Hao’s expression was calm; coming across four personal transmissions by the Supreme Saint indeed took him by surprise. He couldn’t shake off the feeling that there was something fishy, but no matter what, he was here to claim the first place. If someone had indeed arranged this deliberately, then he would simply have to defeat them one by one.

Seeing Li Hao’s composed face, the corners of Qiu Tianlu’s mouth slightly lifted. Remembering how Li Hao frowned when he first saw the match-up with him, the emotion at that moment was something that couldn’t be faked.

“Wu Tian lost to you, but he didn’t fight you with all his might, so his defeat was effortless.”

Qiu Tianlu spoke softly, these words were on behalf of Wu Tian, as well as for the Law Sect Sacred Land.

Li Hao caught the implication but merely looked at him without responding.

“You do have reasons to be proud, but pride is not the reason for you to trespass against the law.”

Qiu Tianlu smiled and said, “After this battle, I hope you can come to our Law Sect to listen to the sacred teachings of the Saint Path.”

“Hmm?”

Li Hao raised an eyebrow and said, “What are you talking about? I don’t understand.”

“A Saint must maintain their dignity and cannot be offended, just as the principles of monarch and subject, parental kindness and filial piety are inviolable!”

Qiu Tianlu stated, “I’ve heard about your debate with the Saints, your disrespect towards them. If you were a Saint yourself, such words would not be crossing the line, but as you are merely at the Dao Law Realm, it’s somewhat rude and lawless!”

Li Hao suddenly realized that they were referring to the issue with the Buddhist sect.

He became somewhat speechless, “That is my score to settle with the Buddhist sect, what does it have to do with you? You seem to be quite ill… ”

Qiu Tianlu shook his head, “Within All Heavens, all must abide by the law. Even though it’s your private feud with the Buddhist sect, it is not a reason to break the rules and laws.”

Li Hao burst into laughter, “Are you receiving benefits from the Buddhist sect, or is your brain really sick? You say I’m offending the Saints, then why not discuss why a Saint has to target someone of the Dao Law Realm? You say I don’t respect the dignity of the Saint, then why not ask why doesn’t he show mercy to the weak?”

“Even if he bullies you, you still have to take it, because you’re just at the Dao Law Realm. Without the support of other Saints, how could you be so arrogant?”

Qiu Tianlu’s face turned cold as he spoke.

Hearing these words, Li Hao was too lazy to continue the pointless talk, finding it absurd to witness such a bias couched in self-righteousness.

Moreover, this was his issue with the Buddhist sect, and yet the other party jumped out to blame him, meddling to the point of being laughable.

“Your so-called law is just the law of the jungle, where the strong are honored, and it’s normal for a Saint to humiliate me, but when I fight back, it’s seen as disrespecting the Saint. If you’re just like everyone else, admiring the strong, why bother talking with such a high-and-mighty facade!”

Behind Li Hao, the Heaven and Earth Vein was revealed, his strength surging ceaselessly into his body.

“Since it’s the law of the jungle, then let’s see how you preach the law from under my feet!”

Qiu Tianlu raised his eyebrows, indifferent, “The law is based on power; without power to back it, the law is nothing but castles in the air. Let’s start by letting you experience the force of the law!”

As he spoke, the Extreme Realm revealed itself behind him, with the Heaven and Earth Vein also appearing, like a vast funnel vortex.

At the same time, an imposing Dharma Aspect emerged from the battlefield, enveloped in Daoist Charm, seemingly a Saint Dharma Aspect!

“That, that’s the Saint Dharma Aspect!”

“No, that’s the embryonic form of the Saint Path, his Dharma Aspect from his past life!”

“How, how can this be fought against?!”

The countless people of the Heavenly Origin Realm gawked at Qiu Tianlu’s Dharma Aspect behind him, shocked. The Dharma Aspect was surrounded by miraculous sights, with laws spiraling around it like celestial scripts and Daoist Charm blooming like rays of light, resembling an imposing Saint!

This scene, not just below the platform, the many people in the waiting area were also stunned, their eyes wide open.

Wu Tian, who had been defeated earlier, also showed a shift in expression, turning extremely grave.

He had lost to Qiu Tianlu before, but the latter had not used such a Dharma Aspect. Was the other party quietly merging with his past life? Without the boost of Incense Fire, he would still surpass the bottleneck, returning to his past life’s cultivation or even exceed his former glory!

“His Saint Path from his past life has already been resurrected, indicating that his cultivation in this life has already peaked.”

“This is too humiliating, I guess even a Semi-Saint stepping up would be defeated instantly.”

“This is already between a Semi-Saint and a Saint; calling him a pseudo-Saint wouldn’t be an exaggeration.”
