Star Gate

“Your friends won’t be able to help you.” Calamity looked in Skyward’s direction. “Skyward is very strong. He’s the strongest among ninth ranks and still recovering at the moment. Otherwise, just his replica alone would be sufficient to kill anyone! He’s far stronger than you guys think...”

“I know.” Li Hao nodded.

The others were almost beside themselves with depression. What were these two doing at a time like this?? Li Hao wasn’t striking out at his opponent and the Calamity master was of a mind to chitchat with him?

Were these two here to network or kill each other?

A spot near Thunder Region trembled as they talked. The Calamity master tilted his head with a smile. He didn’t care about the newcomer that he could sense.

They were too late!

Dao strength trembled in the four corners, like it was alive. Endless chaos strength surged toward him. Its spirit was present. Thunder brewed in the void.

This was when spirit was most active in the chaos.

“Are you waiting to be rescued?” smiled the Calamity master. “Chaos Sky, perhaps? He might have something to do with Order, but what a pity that he’s a step too late!”

He might have been able to match me if he’d come a bit earlier, before I recovered to my peak.

Now? Not at all!

Chaos Sky frowned as well, sensing the immense activity of spirit in the void. He wanted to break out in courses. If that idiot Li Hao had interfered with Calamity even a little bit, their enemy wouldn’t have recovered so quickly.

You should’ve done something if you judged that I was nearby, you blithering fool! Fucking hell man!

They were in trouble now. Had Li Hao possibly reached an agreement with the ninth ranks? If that was the case, then Chaos Sky would’ve set foot into a trap. If the young man was mixed up with the ninth ranks, then the rest of them would all be doomed!

Surely not!

Color drained from Chaos Sky’s face.

Li Hao smiled. The right timing was at hand. He’d waited so long to make sure that the enemy was at his strongest. This was the key to defeating Calamity.

Spirit?

My dao has it too, you know?

Winds rose and clouds surged. Calamity was still looking at Chaos Sky, debating if he should kill Chaos Sky first and then slowly dispatch the cultivator of time, or flip the order around...

Supernatural characters suddenly appeared around Li Hao. Countless numbers of them!

Millions of them surged out of Gan Wuliang, collecting as a book. There were so many of them that it was incredible. Silver Moon!

Silver Moon cultivators had coalesced innumerable characters over recent days. Although they were very weak, they were of the same origin as the ones around Li Hao, so all of them promptly gathered on the young man.

A ferocious tiger appeared in front of Li Hao. It roared and swallowed the book!

The spirit of the tiger!

“Spirit??” Calamity’s eyes widened. He immediately reached for Li Hao and the tiger. This was astounding! The guy had gathered spirit of his own, and a strong one at that!

This was perfect!

Calamity’s strength might increase if he devoured this spirit. His replica might be able to match Skyward’s replica. Possessing sufficient spirit would ensure that he would be able to extract enough energy and control more dao strength.

This was a fantastic development, as well as surprising. How had this kid created such a powerful spirit? That was weird!

Li Hao suddenly grinned and sent the tiger into the void. Ten thousand thunder pillars trembled within Thunder Region. This area was Calamity’s dao universe.

The tiger pounced the thunder pillars—those were the equivalent of dao stars. It seemed to want to occupy the thunder pillars so it could seize control of calamity dao from the Calamity master.

The man, however, sneered and continued reaching for Li Hao. He didn’t care about that!

You underestimate me!

Your spirit is strong, but these thunder pillars are part of calamity dao. I’ve wielded them for so many years, no one’s taking them that easily from me. If that was the case, then any random ninth rank would be able to steal my dao.

A monstrous beast appeared atop the thunder pillars, forming a spirit out of thin air. Its maw yawned open as it sought to eat the tiger in return!

“Thanks!” the Calamity master roared with laughter. “This is such a glorious harvest!”

Li Hao was such a nice person to hand deliver spirit to him!

The monstrous beast was also a dao spirit, the spirit of calamity. It was a bit illusory only because this wasn’t its primary body. There was only so much spirit in the current chaos, but it was sufficient to handle Li Hao with. Its massive mouth was like a black hole!

This ferocious tiger would make perfect nutrition for calamity dao!

A flash of delight crossed Chaos Sky’s face, but he immediately howled, “Retract it...”

They really were done for now!

Li Hao, you seriously are the dumbest! It was a good plan, but now you’re helping him instead! Once his spirit devours yours, he might take your dao of time as well!

Chaos Sky erupted and sped for Li Hao. He tossed everything out of mind and crossed the void at an extremely fast pace!

His presence was so strong that it drew a frown from the Calamity master. Now this was a very powerful opponent. If Chaos Sky had been born in their time of ample spirit, he might already be a ninth rank.

Li Hao was a praying mantis stopping a chariot by himself. This was nothing but a death wish.

The ferocious tiger raced for its target, entering the beast’s mouth. The beast devoured it, becoming more alive. It seemed to smirk at Li Hao.

The greatest boost of all had just come knocking!

Meanwhile, Li Hao grinned radiantly back at it. So you... actually ate it?

You didn’t hesitate at all?

Do you know what this spirit is composed of? How dare you eat it?

“Calamity, has your mother never taught you to not eat things from strangers?”

The Calamity master blinked, an ugly expression spread over his face. He slammed his palm down at Li Hao!

Clearly, he felt that this was an immense insult.

The young man, however, smiled both brilliantly and... madly!

“Didn’t you see what I was doing before? I want to... resurrect people!”

Desire!

All dao spirits, whether it was the tiger or fury, was a type of desire. Li Hao was going to carry out Long Zhan’s goals even more thoroughly. He’d sent his spirit of desire into the spirit of calamity.

The tiger exploded within the beast’s body!

Overwhelming desire drifted out.

To be human was to have desire. To be alive was to have desire. When the great dao gained spirit, so did the spirit have desire. It was just keeping it in check all this time. But once that desire exploded and accelerated, there was nothing that stopped its eruption.

What was Li Hao’s greatest desire?

To revive his people!

Indeed, that was his greatest wish. And what did he need for that?

To... explore the depths of chaos dao, the source of life, and the source of the chaos.

It took only a second, but the beast stuttered from certain interference. It abruptly materialized, like Number Two had descended unto reality from the endless void.

“Roar!!” All of existence was filled with calamity and desire. It echoed in everyone’s mind. “Resurrect!”

Desire had taken control of the primary body. After all, this dao spirit had just awakened. Li Hao might not have been able to do anything to the primary body, but this was just a newly awakened dao spirit.

Ten thousand thunder pillars erupted in the void and combined with each other, becoming the dao of calamity!

The Calamity master’s expression changed drastically. His dao was raging out of control!

That in itself wasn’t terrifying. What was horrifying was that the beast was snarling, “Revive!”

The roar reverberated through the chaos!

It suddenly shot into the void with the thunder pillars and raced for the chaos dao that ordinary people could not see. It wanted to enter chaos dao, strip out the source of life, and revive...

As for what or who it wanted to revive, the spirit had no idea.

It just knew that it needed to enter chaos dao and extract the source of chaos and life in order to make its desire come true.

“Dao spirits are just children...” murmured Li Hao. Whether it was his dao spirit or Calamity’s, both of their dao spirits were very juvenile and innocent. An entity like Number Two was very mature, which was a rare sight in a dao spirit.

There was no such thing as self restraint once such a pure child was gripped by desire.

Calamity’s eyes widened. This couldn’t be allowed to happen!

His dao spirit was charging chaos dao with his dao strength. It was tearing through all of the obstacles and heading straight for the source!

At the same time, in the distance.

Skyward’s replica frowned. Fool!

Indeed, what a fool.

Calamity had fallen into another’s trap. His dao spirit was taking all of his dao strength into the depths of the chaos. Many people would not tolerate that.

It took only a second...

In the unlimited depths of the chaos.

Statues suddenly opened their eyes and someone made a move. They didn’t attack Calamity, but the land of darkness in the abyss. Dao strength flared as they yelled, “How dare you!”

Calamity opened his eyes as well! Livid, he wanted to say something...

But glares from the ninth ranks around him cut him off.

“You bastard! How dare you send your dao into the depths of the chaos, Calamity?? What do you want to do?!”

“It’s Li Hao, the second gen...” he quickly replied.

No one wanted to listen to him.

“Work together right now to kill Calamity’s dao spirit!” someone growled.

Calamity paled!

Some of these people were truly worried, others were doing this on purpose to retaliate against Calamity for being the first to return. His dao spirit was now ramming the depths of the chaos... which gave them a perfect excuse.

It wouldn’t be right to use any other reason, but this, this was fine!
