Imperial City Ruins, opportunities refreshed daily

Chapter 155 Enlightenment Bone

"Xu Hao, the stronger you appear, the stronger your enemies will become. Just wait, I won't let this go!"

Prime Minister Liu Tianheng, dressed in white, stood up. He glanced in the direction of the capital of the Great Xuan Dynasty, then immediately got up and left, heading towards the Eastern Extreme Region.

He admitted defeat this time, but he was not completely defeated.

As long as you're alive, anything is possible!
If the top experts on the two-day rankings couldn't kill Xu Hao, then he would go find an even stronger one.

If three aren't enough, then find more.

He refused to believe that Xu Hao was truly a miracle worker, capable of winning indefinitely.

He can lose a hundred times, but if Xu Hao loses even once, then he wins!
As Liu Tianheng left the Great Xuan Dynasty and headed to the Eastern Extreme Region, news of Xu Hao's victory over three of the top ten strongest individuals on the Eastern Extreme Region's Heavenly Ranking quickly flew by.

"What? That barren land of the Great Xuan Dynasty actually produced such a true dragon?"

"The top experts from the Eastern Region have all been mobilized. No wonder so many people went to the Great Xuan Dynasty first. That ancient ruin is unimaginable; it can actually help people grow to such a level!" Some people exclaimed for a moment, then sighed in amazement.

There were previous reports that there were ancient ruins in the Eastern Pole region.

But many people remain skeptical.

The Great Xuan Dynasty has stood for so many years without any intelligence or information, but suddenly it appeared, leading many to speculate that there is a huge conspiracy.

Everyone wants to wait and see.

Little did they expect that their observation would result in such earth-shattering intelligence being leaked.

"It seems that playing it safe was the right thing to do. If we had gone straight there like the first group, and were unaware of the situation, we might have gotten caught in the crossfire!"

"Xu Hao, being able to fight against three Heavenly Ranking experts by himself, he must be at least in the top five of the Heavenly Ranking! Perhaps he has even become an expert above the Heavenly Rank."

"Let's find out the situation first; the future is uncertain."

While others were merely amazed, the Tang family from the nearby dynasty trembled with fear, even feeling a sense of relief at having survived a calamity.

Their family had a top-ranked expert who was killed by Xu Hao in the capital of the Great Xuan Dynasty because of an ancient ruin. When the news came, their family was outraged and began to mobilize experts from all sides.

They even planned to report it to the Tang family patriarch.

They are now glad they were not fully prepared, otherwise they would have fallen headlong into it and become cannon fodder for others.

"Now remember this: do not provoke Xu Hao lightly. Also, send members of the Tang family to the capital of the Great Xuan Dynasty to see if they can mend the relationship with the Xu family. Even if they cannot mend it, do not add to the enmity!"

"Yes!"

Actions were taken by all parties, and the news spread.

Meanwhile, Xu Hao, in the capital, woke up naturally.

Xu Hao opened his eyes, stretched lazily, and felt refreshed.

Today is another beautiful day.

Xu Hao stood up, washed up, and then pushed open the door.

"Young master, you're awake?"

"Young Master, I'll prepare lunch for you right away!" Qin Feixue and Tang Wan'er immediately went forward to greet Xu Hao as he walked out of the room.

"Alright!" Xu Hao smiled slightly, enjoying the blessing of having two women.

At the service of Qin Feixue and Tang Wan'er, Xu Hao chatted with Xu Qianzhi for a while before getting up and heading towards the palace.

Today, it's time to start looking for opportunities again.

Xu Hao was very satisfied with the space shuttle he obtained last time.

They kill without leaving a trace, and because of their extremely high level, even powerful evil cultivators at the Heavenly Rank have no way to avoid them.

If he had a few more Dao-level magical artifacts, Xu Hao believed that he would no longer need to personally engage in battle; he could simply use the artifacts to clash with each other.

As Xu Hao walked down the street, the people around him and people from all sides bowed respectfully to him.

If Xu Hao hadn't intervened last night, the entire capital city would likely have perished at the hands of the evil cultivators.

In addition, Xu Hao's combat strength was too formidable, so no one dared to be negligent and they all wanted to get acquainted with him and have him mentor them.

Xu Hao remained calm and quickly walked through the streets to the palace.

"Your Excellency, Duke!" The Imperial Guards bowed in greeting.

Xu Hao entered the outer city of the palace, chose a secluded spot, and then opened the Fortune Telling panel.

[You spend one opportunity to refresh your point. We are searching for you...]

Xu Hao waited for a moment, and a message appeared:
【Daily fortune telling.】

Your fame is spreading far and wide, but great strength also means powerful enemies. The White-Robed Prime Minister is heading to the Eastern Extremity to find an opponent who can rival you...

After reading the information displayed in the divination, Xu Hao's expression darkened.

That old fellow is as cunning as a mouse.

They would flee far away at the slightest disturbance.

This meant that Xu Hao was never able to find any fault with Liu Tianheng.

Now, this kid is up to no good again.

"Looks like I'll have to find a specific time to kill him, otherwise he'll keep causing me trouble, which is really annoying!" Xu Hao snorted and looked at the divination tool again.

At this moment, after the introductions are complete, the information for each sign-in slot is displayed:

[The worst possible outcome is to go to the Imperial Palace No. 111 at 1:15 PM and use the Domain Breaking Seal to open it, where you may obtain a Dao-level opportunity.]

However, the weasel has already colluded with the blood dragon. Your rash breach of the seal will allow the weasel to complete some of the sealing information, and it will join forces with the blood dragon to break free, bringing great disaster! Extremely ominous.

[If you win the lottery, do nothing, and after a night, everything will be calm. Everything will be stable, no worries, and peace.]

[A very auspicious sign. At 1:15 PM, go to the No. 79 annex of the Imperial Palace and use the Domain-Breaking Seal to open it. You will receive an opportunity at the Dao-Entering level. Great fortune.]

[Due to your current status and cultivation level, you can only search for shallow-level sealed opportunities at the entry-level. Please improve your status and cultivation level.]

Xu Hao glanced at it.

Peace of mind.

A very bad fortune, very bad luck.

Winning the lottery is nothing special.

And another extremely auspicious sign!

An opportunity has presented itself!

Xu Hao's gaze first fell on the worst possible draw, and a moment later, he frowned.

The weasel seems to have some skill; it has actually colluded with the blood dragon again.

However, no matter how much they conspired, the weasel could never have imagined that he would have the opportunity to divine the future and know what was going on.

"Let you be arrogant for a while. Once my cultivation improves, you'll be the first one I deal with!" Xu Hao sneered, glancing at the auspicious fortune slip before heading towards the No. 79 villa outside the palace without hesitation.

Xu Hao knew the way well and entered the courtyard at a very fast speed. He went straight to the main house.

Xu Hao first glanced around, then stirred his innate qi and mixed it with the blood from his fingers to begin carving the Domain-Breaking Seal on the open ground of the main house.

They are very skilled at it.

Because he has depicted so much, Xu Hao can now depict things very quickly even with his eyes closed.

Still the same.

Xu Hao finished his work with a final stroke, quietly awaiting the passage of time.

Meanwhile, inside the sealed space, the weasel was revealing its hidden talent to the blood dragon.

"You actually have such talent?" Blood Dragon looked at the weasel with surprise, then revealed a look of delight.

Under normal circumstances, the weasel could go to other sects to steal chickens and dogs, and perhaps it could steal something.

However, in the sealed world, they were directly sealed away, rendering this mutated talent useless.

But now there's an opportunity: a thief from the outside world has found something and frequently breaks through the sealed space to steal their treasures.

Now, according to the weasel, if they wait for the thief to appear, they might be able to break through the seal and escape after two or three more times. "You should have said so earlier! You should have said so earlier! Why was so much time wasted!" the blood dragon complained.

If the weasel had said so earlier, it wouldn't have had to go to such lengths.

Now, we have to wait for the thief's next visit.

The weasel gave a wry smile.

Its strength is inherently weak, and it wouldn't dare to reveal itself unless it reaches a certain level.

Because some powerful demons can devour it whole and strip it of its talents.

If it hadn't failed to catch the thief this time, and if it hadn't been so close to breaking the seal on the space, it wouldn't have revealed its mutated talent.

Although it seems to be having a pleasant conversation with the Blood Dragon, once the sealed space is broken, the Blood Dragon might attack it.

"I had no choice, and it's just that I haven't encountered any thieves lately!" the weasel chuckled sheepishly.

"It's alright. That thief has always liked to steal my things. You just need to stay nearby. Once we get out, I'll definitely protect you!" Blood Dragon said with a righteous expression.

But a different idea had taken root in my mind.

This mutated talent is too good. If one could obtain it, or even go a step further, one might be able to advance it to the level of a supernatural power.

At that time, even if it wreaks havoc outside, no one will be able to do anything to it.

The two great demons each plotted in their hearts, quietly waiting for the thief Xu Hao to arrive.

And the hour of Wei arrives at a quarter past the hour.

In the real world, Xu Hao had already completed the final stroke of the Broken Domain Seal.

hum.

The energy that broke through the domain seal and then gathered together instantly acted on the space.

The space of the courtyard was instantly pierced, and a ripple spread outwards.

After the ripples, a black hole appeared.

Xu Hao did not hesitate at all; he had already probed into it with his palm covered in true energy.

Xu Hao's hand moved with lightning speed, touching an object.

Without the slightest hesitation, Xu Hao grabbed him.

"Who?" A striped tiger stared in astonishment at the hand that appeared before it, then flew into a rage.

It was very clear that this hand belonged to the thief who frequently stole the Blood Dragon.

Last time, it was also invited by the Blood Dragon to capture the thief alive, but in the eyes of all the demons, the thief still stole the treasure.

It was originally wary of it as well.

Therefore, it remained vigilant.

In the past day or two, it couldn't bear the loneliness any longer and wanted to take out its treasure to comprehend the Dao. It thought the other party would only steal the sealing stone, but unexpectedly, its treasure was also on the other party's covetous list.

A moment of carelessness led to disaster.

Whoosh.

The giant, striped tiger had just released its dark, malevolent energy when the space was immediately healed.

The things placed in front of me vanished without a trace.

"Awoo!" the giant, striped tiger roared.

Its treasure is gone!

This thing can help it develop martial arts, elevate its soul, and reduce its energy consumption!

But everything is gone!
The enormous roar of the striped tiger immediately attracted the attention of countless powerful demons in the surrounding area, especially the blood dragon, which was not too far away.

Blood Dragon was startled, "Oh no, that thief has made his move!"

"Why are they over there? Why aren't they here?" the weasel asked, looking puzzled.

Their caves were filled with countless sealing stones, but the thief didn't come.

In the real world, Xu Hao ignored the thoughts of the great demons and directly pulled the object out of the black hole.

Take a closer look.

Xu Hao was stunned.

What he pulled out was a broken bone.

An unidentified bone from some kind of monster.

"What is this thing? Is it also at the Dao Entry level?" Xu Hao frowned as he opened the Fortune Telling Approach to check the specific information.

【Enlightenment Bone】 is made from the brow bone of an extremely rare Enlightenment Beast from another dimension. It has the ability to guide people into the Dao and develop their own potential.

It has a particularly strong effect on strengthening the soul and can also assist in cultivation. It is a rare treasure and can be considered the foundation of a sect! [Entry-level]

The information presented on the divination panel made Xu Hao's expression freeze.

This stuff is amazing!
Although it doesn't have the powerful attack capabilities of a space shuttle, nor can it enhance cultivation like spiritual marrow.

But the key is that it has an extremely powerful auxiliary effect.

Enlightenment—the very two words themselves illustrate its preciousness.

Furthermore, as the panel already states, this item can become the foundation of a major sect, which speaks volumes.

With it, Xu Hao could cultivate better and learn more techniques.

In particular, he also possessed a sword manual from Mount Shu.

With his martial spirit, any technique is something he can cultivate.

With the help of the Enlightenment Bone, he will be even more powerful.

He can even accelerate his cultivation speed when cultivating certain Dao-level rare and precious materials.

More importantly, the Enlightenment Bone also has a powerful blessing effect on the soul, which is invaluable.

Xu Hao has always been able to cultivate to the Dao Entry level, or even higher, by relying on his Dao Bone.

"A good thing!" Xu Hao took it in his hand and immersed himself in it for a while. He felt that his soul had been enlightened.

Xu Hao didn't immerse himself in it; instead, he put it in his backpack and began cleaning up the surrounding area to erase any traces.

After he cleared away all traces around him, Xu Hao quickly climbed out of the villa and left the outer city of the palace.

This time, many people saw Xu Hao walk out of the palace, but their earlier jealousy had completely disappeared.

When the gap in strength between two sides becomes so large that it cannot be bridged by practical means, people will respect the strong.

This world is one where the strong are respected.

Ignoring the gazes of the people around him, Xu Hao strode back to the Xu family home.

"Son!"

"Son!"

"Young Master Xu!" Three voices rang out simultaneously.

Xu Hao looked around and saw that Ninth Princess Xuan Qingxiao was sitting around a stone table with Qin Feixue and Tang Wan'er, chatting happily.

"Aren't you going to work?" Xu Hao asked, a look of surprise on his face.

As a princess of a nation, appointed as the head of the Great Xuan Dynasty, Xuan Qingxiao has been staying at his house for far too long.

“I’ve left the other matters to the Garrison Command. I just came to visit since I had nothing else to do.” Ninth Princess Xuan Qingxiao said with a hint of playfulness and slyness, “I hope Duke Xu won’t kick me out!”
