Star Gate

It was only now that the Silver Moon king and Human King were fully on the same level. Li Hao even slightly occupied an upper hand. Of course, he didn’t have the advantage when it came to battle strength.

But no matter what method he’d used to kill Reincarnation, it was a testament to his abilities that he’d been able to do so.

The young man had dismantled the star of time. Some of its daos had broken, but thankfully Number Two had copied them. It would just take a bit of work to return them to their original condition.

Li Hao didn’t mind. He wanted to try rebuilding the star of time nonetheless. His understanding of dao and dao rules was much deeper after the fight. With that, he also understood certain other concepts, such as why there was a shifting of daos in the star of time. That might be due to the presence of... dao spirits.

Even if his reconstruction didn’t measure up to the one before, it would still retain some of the properties of time.

That was enough!

Those in the vicinity swiftly began to collect resources and clean up the battlefield. Having killed so many powerful exalted emperors and seizing the complete world of Reincarnation, there was a massive harvest to sift through.

Of course, Myriad Changes and the rest from the alliance didn’t have their hopes up. They stood quietly to the side, each more docile than the last.

Li Hao was the star of the chaos today!

Even the Human King’s light had been dimmed somewhat. Despite killing Arctic Frost, five eighth ranks, and breaking out of an encirclement of fifteen eighth ranks, he still didn’t eclipse Li Hao’s deeds.

Everyone looked nervously at Li Hao repairing time. They... didn’t want to look too closely, in case Li Hao noticed their attention. But they really couldn’t help themselves.

It wasn’t just those physically present on the battlefield, even some of the mental entities were watching raptly. They held their breaths as Li Hao continuously reordered and reassembled the great daos.

This was the most direct, profound, and abstract dao of combination they had ever seen in their lives.

Time!

And Li Hao had either... forgotten or decided not to shoo them away. They could watch as they wished. This was incredible!

They would soon learn that Li Hao hadn’t forgotten about them. The young man didn’t grow irritated after a few combinations failed. Instead, he thought it over and said, “Reconstructing time is proving to be a bit troublesome. I think I need to look to everyone for help!

“Please return to the worlds you were originally part of and help me wield the dao within. A great dao that lacks spirit proves hard to combine. What was manageable before now slightly repels each other. Clearly, it’s the lack of spirit that’s creating the new difficulties!

“I need everyone to return to how things were before and exercise control over their respective dao until I finish the reconstruction. It’s not that I need everyone’s help during the process...”

General surprise filtered through the crowd before delight set in. This was wonderful! This wasn’t asking them for a favor at all! This was a perfect opportunity to comprehend dao! It was one that they would be hard pressed to seek out, but had just fallen straight into their lap!

Even Myriad Changes and the rest from the alliance were envious. This was a great boon, not asking for a favor!

They’d never seen such a complicated and profound dao in their lives, much less be a personal part of it. Even just observing from the sidelines would be a rich experience they’d never forget for the rest of their lives.

Li Hao quickly looked at the alliance exalted emperors as well. “You guys should come help me too. Seventh ranks wield more daos and we’re dealing with about ten thousand of them here. There aren’t enough exalted emperors in the field right now. Everyone should get involved to help me complete the daos!”

“Our thanks to the venerated one!” The seventh ranks were overjoyed. They’d just been thinking about that, so they were delighted that Li Hao had brought it up himself.

Silver Moon martial masters all joined the effort as well. Hong Yitang was the only one who abstained. When everyone entered the river of great dao, he looked at Li Hao with a sigh.

“Li Hao...” he suddenly said.

The young man turned his head back for a look. Hong Yitang appeared incomparably sacred and holy. It was just...

Li Hao frowned slightly.

“I’d like to make a trip out,” the man said with a complicated expression. “A large number of exalted emperors died this time and a great portion of the worlds are unstable. Many exalted emperors are fleeing the east, so I’m concerned that they might devour their worlds and wipe out the population on it!

“I’d like... to bring back a portion of the humans.”

Li Hao gave it some thought, nodded, and raised his hand to yank someone else out of the dao river. The queen blinked with incomprehension.

“Accompany Martial Uncle Hong to retrieve the human population!” said Li Hao. “You will be collecting only the energy of faith. Leave the mental strength of faith and faith itself to the martial uncle!”

The queen wanted nothing more!

She’d been quite concerned that she would be assimilated by faith. In fact, she worried about it day and night, being truly unwilling to go down that path. Since Hong Yitang was willing to take it, she would hand it over on bended knee!

“Alright!” she readily agreed. Hong Yitang didn’t care. He wouldn’t say anything since Li Hao had no opinions otherwise.

The two quickly departed.

......

Li Hao began to reconstruct time with the aid of numerous exalted emperors. With the addition of all of these mental entities, it was like the great dao had its own spirit. The daos that were unable to be melded before came together without issue now.

There was a great difference between dao with spirit and dao without spirit.

The star of time was a complicated construct, but it took Li Hao only a day to utilize the group’s collective efforts in rebuilding the star. Although it seemed weaker than before, it had been rebuilt nonetheless.

Li Hao was overcome with joy!

After this attempt, he finally fully grasped the path of integrating a myriad of daos. He’d smashed through all obstacles. While he might still need a long time to test, experiment, and improve...

Everything would be much easier once the first step was complete.

The river of time appeared once more after the star of time returned to its original form. Allheaven Hall could once more operate.

Rivers of time once again spread throughout the chaos. The mental entities appeared within the previous gathering place of the hall once more.

“Everyone can return to your bodies now!” Li Hao addressed them. “I have nothing to thank you for your help. The next time you visit Allheaven Hall, you can enter the dao chess once to study dao, free of charge or anything else!”

“Our thanks for the venerated one’s largesse!” chorused a group of exalted emperors. This was the best news ever! What a wonderful trip this had been!

The mental entities promptly departed after the passageways opened again. Exalted emperors on thousands of worlds in the eastern region soon received word of recent events. Many world masters and dao masters walked out of their world in high spirits. They bowed in Li Hao’s direction!

It didn’t matter how old a cultivator was, they could be a teacher so long as they grasped the great dao first!

They’d experienced the saying in the true meaning of the words. The saying went on to say that having attained such advances in dao, they could die on the morrow if need be. While the exalted emperors didn’t feel the same way, this had been an invaluable experience all the same.

The doors to Hallheaven Hall on various worlds opened and exalted emperors walked through the void, calling out, “Allheaven Hall has been established and is open to all fellow daoists! It is a sacred land for discussing dao and the blessing of the chaos! Dao Master Hao Moon is the saint of the eastern region!”

This was exceedingly high praise that bore a few hints of heartfelt emotion to it. The exalted emperors really did want to advertise the Allheaven Hall in this moment and have everyone visit it!

......

Li Hao was extremely weak at the moment and didn’t have effort to spare for what those exalted emperors might be doing back in their bodies. He didn’t care about the battle spoils and dragged his weary body into the distance.

The Human King ignored him when he arrived. Fang Ping was busy dismantling worlds—Arctic Frost and another one. The cosmos was filled with energy, dao crystals, dao strength...

The Human King was reversing yin and yang to resurrect those who’d self-destructed.

He turned back to nod at the young man when Li Hao arrived, but said nothing else. Although New Martial had killed Arctic Frost and the others, they’d suffered an immense loss all the same. So many exalted emperors had self detonated. Even if they came back to life, they might not be the same as they were before.

“Congratulations to the little friend!” The supreme approached Li Hao when he saw that the young man had visited them. “Fang Ping is quite preoccupied with building a resurrection formation...”

“I know!” Li Hao nodded. “I think that the strength of two worlds might not be enough life force. Reincarnation focused on life and death. I can extract all of that world’s vitality and add it to the formation. That will provide enough life force for reviving them...”

“Well...” the supreme started to say with some embarrassment. “You’re the one who killed Reincarnation...”

“The senior is being far too polite,” laughed Li Hao. “I didn’t pull this victory off by myself. I wouldn’t have these results if it wasn’t for the seniors. In actuality, it is hard to draw a line between New Martial and Silver Moon. We are one in the eyes of others as well, so there is no need to say what is yours and mine...”

“Kid, that’s your tune now that you’re strong enough, huh?” the Human King couldn’t help but grumble. “But you drew the line very clearly when you were weak? You’re seriously...

“Hand it over! We’re short on life force! And you! You just had to borrow strength from outsiders this time. You couldn’t kill Reincarnation by yourself. You should get your ass into eighth rank as soon as possible!

“Otherwise, with what you’ve done today, you’ll be in grave trouble next time!”

“My thanks for the Human King’s reminder!” Li Hao laughed. “Does the senior need my help in reviving everyone?”

“Nope!” Fang Ping turned him down. “This is just a minor matter!”

Li Hao promptly left upon receiving that response, leaving a vast sum of vitality behind.

“What a heartless kid,” the Human King suddenly cursed after Li Hao was gone. “Does he not have any manners? Doesn’t he know that reviving people might result in endless tribulations? I was too embarrassed to ask for help, but he’s really not helping me!”

“......” The supreme stared, deadpan, at him. You’re the one who wanted to protect your dignity.

It was true, bringing so many people back to life would certainly result in tribulations. Li Hao was well versed in them, so the process would be much easier with the young man’s help.

What a pity.

They couldn’t say anything now.
