Fantasy: The Clan Chief Lies Down, His House Is Full of Emperors

Chapter 370 Breakthrough 4 times!

Xu Hao had set up an unusually large number of formations around him, mainly to prevent Wu Yuqi, this spoiled brat, from having any wicked ideas that might affect him.

After confirming that the formation was correct, Xu Hao began to practice his cultivation technique.

"Wow!!"

It was as if Xu Hao had opened a valve; the energy contained in the essence blood of the immortal beast in the pool surged into his body at a speed faster than Wu Yuqi and the other three combined.

At this moment, Xu Hao was like a person who was extremely thirsty and came to a spring. Without saying a word, he drank the water in a big gulp.

Only the two guards on duty could see that the water in the pool was clearly flowing towards Xu Hao, and the other four couldn't get it over to him.

Fortunately, the essence of the immortal beast contained enough energy, and there was still enough water in the pool. Otherwise, the four of them would have only been able to drink a little soup, and Xu Hao would have eaten all the meat by himself.

A month later, Xu Hao successfully broke through to the seventh level of the Heavenly Palace Realm.

"Not enough, not enough, it's still too slow!"

Xu Hao was not satisfied, so he sped up again and continued to absorb the energy in large gulps after stabilizing his realm.

Such an opportunity is rare, so we must try to absorb as much as possible.

Three months later, Xu Hao successfully broke through to the eighth level of the Heavenly Palace Realm.

Xu Hao was still not satisfied. He formed hand seals, fully activated his Sacred Body, and increased the absorption speed once again.

It wasn't until a year later that Xu Hao, who had broken through to the first level of the Dharma Aspect Realm, opened his eyes. He had a faint joy on his face and felt extremely satisfied.

Under normal circumstances, it would take him several years and a lot of resources to break through from the sixth level of the Heavenly Palace to the first level of the Dharma Aspect.

But now it's only taken a year, without spending any resources. Who wouldn't be happy if they encountered something like that?

Xu Hao activated the array he had set up, turned his head and looked around, only to find that apart from the two guards, he was the only one left.

“Mr. Xu, please,” the guard said respectfully.

Xu Hao nodded and followed them away from the place.

Fortunately, Wu Yuqi and the other three weren't here, otherwise they would definitely be envious and jealous of Xu Hao's rapid progress.

Given the same opportunity and the same amount of time, they could only break through one realm, while Xu Hao managed to break through four times.

Xu Hao is now capable of fighting Wu Yuqi, who is at the fourth level of the Dharma Aspect Realm and possesses a special physique.

This is all thanks to Xu Hao's Ancient Sacred Body.

Although his physique requires more resources for cultivation and breakthroughs, his cultivation speed is actually quite fast when resources are plentiful.

The energy Xu Hao absorbed in one year was enough to allow dozens of cultivators in the Dharma Aspect Realm to break through twice.

This shows how much more resources he needed to break through compared to ordinary cultivators.

After leaving the small secret realm, the butler led Xu Hao to collect some rewards, which were the rewards that the top five should receive, namely various resources.

Xu Hao chose the ones he could take back so that the Xu family and he could earn more spirit stones.

"Brother Xu, these are specially given to you by the city lord, who hopes you can perform well in the Hundred Cities War," the steward said, taking out an additional storage ring.

Clearly, this shows that the city lord admires him and wants to win him over in advance by offering him some benefits.

Even if Xu Hao doesn't want to stay in Qilan City in the future, this is still a good thing, after all, having more friends means having more options.

Xu Hao understood the reasoning behind it, so he did not refuse.

"Thank you, City Lord. I will always remember your kindness."

The butler was pleased to see how cooperative he was.

After that, Xu Hao left the city lord's mansion and returned four years later. At that time, the city lord would personally lead them to participate in the Hundred Cities War.

Xu Hao went straight back to his residence, where Jin Tianlu was already waiting for him.

After entering the house.

Jin Tianlu exclaimed, "You must have had quite a haul this time!"

"It's alright," Xu Hao said casually.

If you don't know Xu Hao, you might think he's just "okay," but Jin Tianlu, who knows him well, understands that his "okay" is a huge achievement for someone else!

"Have you broken through to the Dharma Aspect Realm?" Jin Tianlu asked tentatively.

Xu Hao nodded.

Jin Tianlu gasped, his expression saying, "I knew it."

In just one year, he went from the sixth level of the Heavenly Palace to the first level of the Dharma Aspect. Such a great achievement is actually considered "not bad".

Jin Tianlu, despite having met countless people, really couldn't understand Xu Hao.

He is talented and capable, yet possesses a composure and shrewdness beyond his years, and remains remarkably humble.

Jin Tianlu couldn't even imagine how arrogant and high-profile he would be if he had his talent and strength at that age.

At this moment, Xu Hao suddenly asked, "Have you seen any suspicious people around here recently?"

The incident involving Guan Long and Guan Min made Xu Hao realize that the Guan family must have some influence in Qilan City. Since he had dealt with the two of them one after another, he would most likely be targeted by the Guan family, so he had to be careful.

“Many people have come to visit you, almost all of them wanting to win you over, but the Guan family is clearly not one of them,” Jin Tianlu replied.

Of the top five in this selection competition, only Xu Hao was a rogue cultivator without any power. He displayed such great talent that he naturally became the target of everyone's efforts to win him over.

If Xu Hao can perform well in the Hundred Cities War, the City Lord's Mansion or even the City Lord himself will try to win him over.

If someone is exceptionally dazzling, the city lord's mansion won't even have a chance to win them over; a more powerful force will emerge.

Xu Hao pondered for a moment and said, "Don't come looking for me for the time being. I'm not planning to go out."

Although private duels are prohibited in the city, powerful forces within the city have many ways to eliminate someone like Xu Hao, who has no strength or background, without anyone noticing.

The best way is to find a safe place to hide.

“Okay, you really need to lay low for a while and wait until you participate in the Hundred Cities War,” Jin Tianlu agreed.

Xu Hao replied, "That's exactly what I was thinking."

"It would be best to go directly to the inn to stay; it's not very safe here," Jin Tianlu suggested.

Xu Hao replied, "Okay, I'll go right away."

The largest inn in the city is located in the city center, in a bustling area with many powerful figures nearby. Each room has numerous array formations, so there's no need to worry about being detected. It's much safer than this place.

They arrived together at the Yuelai Inn in the city center. Like Ruyilou, this inn was a chain store and held a prominent position in Mingyue Xianchao.

The wealthy Xu Hao discussed the matter with the innkeeper and booked a room for four years.

During this time, the people at the inn will not disturb Xu Hao and will also help him block those who come to visit. Xu Hao can do whatever he wants inside.

Finally, Xu Hao went to Ruyi Tower and bought a lot of cultivation resources he needed, spending all the spirit stones he had on him.

You should know that he previously made tens of thousands of high-grade spirit stones by betting on himself to win.

So when he spent so many spirit stones at once, Manager Wang thought he had offended someone and was about to run away.

Xu Hao explained that he needed to go into seclusion for a while, which put Manager Wang at ease. He didn't want to lose such a valuable customer as Xu Hao.

After preparing everything, Xu Hao entered his room at the Yuelai Inn and set up the formation.

To outsiders, Xu Hao was hiding in the inn, using seclusion and cultivation as a way to avoid the Guan family.

In fact, he had already returned to the Xu family in the Tianyuan Realm through the double portal.

Xu Hao gave some useful items he had received from the City Lord's Mansion to Xu Qingzhou, collected his share of the profits he was entitled to during this period, and then stayed at home with his parents and sister.

After all, his cultivation level had just increased so much, and he needed to consolidate it before he could continue to improve.

……

After Xu Qingzhou and Yin Xianhong got together, they often spent the whole night exchanging secret techniques, which improved their cultivation levels.

They lingered together for several years before Yin Xianhong reluctantly left Cangzhou to continue her travels to other continents.

In the past, she would only return once every six or seven years when she went out, but this time she returned after only three years, and once she entered Xu Qingzhou's room, she didn't come out.

However, Yin Xianhong's cultivation level was too high, and even after more than ten years of intense effort, she still couldn't conceive.

However, Xu Qingzhou was not in a hurry. There was plenty of time ahead. With their current cultivation levels, they were still very young and had plenty of time in the future.

As long as you are willing to work hard, you will always reap the rewards.

Xu Qingzhou had verified this statement three times before Xu Ying, Xu Yundao, and Xu Kong came into being.
