Follow the path of Dao from infancy-Chapter 950 - 194: Painting the Star to Kill the Saint
"Why is Haotian Venerate assisting the Demon Race?"
"Has he gone mad? This is betrayal of the Source Ancestor."
"If the Star Saint wishes to kill him, no one will lend him aid now."
At the Demon Slaughter Conference, many Saints saw Li Hao’s actions and felt his behavior verged on madness. To stand in the way of the Star Saint and prevent him from slaying demons right in front of the Source Ancestor—regardless of whether Li Hao held the key to entering the Ancient Hall—such a move would surely lead to a grim outcome.
"Haotian..."
Among the Saints, Xiao Tianyu’s expression darkened slightly as his gaze shifted to the white-haired, white-browed Saint seated beside their master, the Source Ancestor. That was his senior brother.
He was also the Second Disciple of the Source Ancestor, endowed with unparalleled talent, as monstrous as he was extraordinary.
Nobody knew that he, too, was a Supreme Saint.
Only Xiao Tianyu understood the true terror of their master’s strength—far beyond the imaginations of the outside world. Li Hao’s move, he thought, would lead to disaster!
Many eyes turned to gaze at the Source Ancestor, eager to see his reaction, but the Source Ancestor remained calm, his expression unchanged.
Next to him, however, the white-haired, white-browed Saint’s eyes flickered faintly, a subtle glint of frost appearing within.
On the Void Battlefield, the Star Saint saw Li Hao truly intervening for the Divine Clan and couldn’t help but laugh aloud.
"Do you think that just because the Ancient Hall requires you to unlock it, no one will dare lay hands on you? Even if the Source Ancestor shields you for now, when the Ancient Hall opens, it will be your death sentence!"
He transmitted his voice.
Li Hao couldn’t be bothered to respond. The Star Saint was overthinking; he simply didn’t wish to see Ying Xiaoxiao die before his own eyes—nothing more, nothing less.
As for whether this amounted to betrayal of the Source Ancestor, that was nonsensical. He had never sworn loyalty to the Source Ancestor, so how could betrayal even be discussed?
Living as a Saint, yet without the means to protect someone—now that would be truly pitiful.
Seeing Li Hao remain silent, the Star Saint snorted coldly, radiating beams of starlight from his entire body. In an instant, the surrounding void transformed into a Star Domain.
Within the Star Domain, clusters of radiant globes, each the size of a fist, began to materialize—more and more of them, dozens, hundreds, thousands—transforming into a vast, magnificent starry sky.
"Let me witness the power you used to slay the Void Ancestor!"
The Star Saint’s cold eyes sharpened as he suddenly attacked. The bursts of starlight shot forth in beams, illuminating the void with brilliance, their condensed forms piercing through the air to arrive in front of Li Hao in an instant.
The light was unavoidable, far too swift, yet just as the starlight closed in on Li Hao, the Dao Domain around him revealed itself. The starlight appeared to freeze within the Eternal Dao Domain—countless beams like meteor trails, forming a breathtakingly beautiful scene.
Bang!
In the next moment, the frozen starlight abruptly shattered like smoke dissipating.
The Star Saint raised an eyebrow. The Eternal Dao Domain—it was as formidable as legend foretold.
"Earth Yellow Star—suppress!"
He raised his hand, and within the Star Domain, a particular star began to shine brilliantly. At the same time, beyond the vault of the sky, a mysterious yellow radiance emerged, spanning millions of miles and descending to envelop all.
"The Earth Yellow Star has been illuminated!"
"It’s said that the Star Saint can harness the power of All Heavens Stars!"
"Each star signifies an entire grand world!"
Many Saints stared intently, sensing the boundless power within that mysterious yellow glow—it was as if the majesty of a Supreme Saint were moving Heaven and Earth.
Bathed in the radiance of the Earth Yellow Star, the Star Saint resembled an Emperor, raising a finger to press down on Li Hao.
As his finger descended, an overwhelming force came crashing down. The faint outline of the Earth Yellow Star unexpectedly manifested hundreds of meters above Li Hao’s head, blotting out the sky and covering the earth, extinguishing all light.
The emergence of such a massive form, coupled with its surging might, sent hearts racing in fear.
Li Hao glanced up, his expression unchanged. The Star Saint’s method of harnessing the power of the All Heavens Stars felt oddly familiar to him.
He, too, raised a finger, using the void as his canvas and Heaven and Earth Power as his ink, effortlessly stroking a single brush—a star appeared instantly.
Beneath him, an Earth Yellow Star likewise ascended, roaring as it hurtled forward in collision.
The deafening sound of impact echoed throughout the Void Sky Abyss. Both stars, carrying fragments of the original Earth Yellow Star’s might, shattered spectacularly upon collision, unleashing shockwaves that spread across millions of miles.
Apart from the Saints witnessing this display, the countless Divine Clan armies—numbering in the tens of millions—were also shaken by the reverberating sound.
Such grandeur left the Divine Clan armies pale in comparison.
After the explosive impact subsided, Li Hao’s figure remained firmly unmoving, while the Star Saint stood similarly resolute. Yet, his expression had shifted slightly.
What kind of technique was this? Li Hao could replicate his attack, and it seemed even more powerful.
"It’s a pity—the Earth Yellow Star I painted is merely a painted Earth Yellow Star…"
Li Hao frowned slightly upon seeing his conjured Earth Yellow Star shatter, feeling a pang of regret. The myriad stars he wielded were, after all, painted into existence.
If they were genuine stars, drawn upon by their starlight essence, their power would be far deadlier.
"I did not expect you to comprehend the Star Path at such a young age—truly extraordinary." The Star Saint now spoke in a low voice.
Li Hao’s display had indeed earned his respect, but that also meant he would exert his full strength to suppress him.
Bang!
He raised his hand again, and another star shone in the heavens above, the surrounding temperature climbing rapidly as space seemed to warp. This was the Law of Burning.
"Sky Sun Star!"
The Star Saint borrowed the power of the Sky Sun Star, nicknamed the "Little Sun." Above the Void Sky Abyss, the sky suddenly blazed blindingly bright, its scorching heat spreading across the battlefield.
A towering star, ablaze like a flaming sun, descended—it was massive enough to overshadow the entire Divine Clan army, its sheer scale reducing the countless soldiers to insignificance. Such was the power of a top-tier Three Calamities Saint.
Li Hao glanced up at it and raised his hand again, this time with utmost focus.
He painted carefully, his fingers stirring the void as though splashing ink upon a canvas.
In an instant, the entire Void Sky Abyss seemed to boil over.
The ferocious heat skyrocketed tenfold and beyond, merging with the power of the Law Origin itself. Even the Saints began to sweat, their foreheads dripping under the intense pressure.
