as i understand
As long as you have a valid visa you can enter. You will get at the port of entry an I-94 with the expiration date of whatever is in your visa. Now if by some means your current h1 gets extended your I-94 in the H1 acceptance will have a future end date. You need to make sure that the I-94 received at the border is cancelled and the I-94 received in h1 approval is valid.
Consult attorney in this matter, it is kind of important...idea is make sure you are always legal with your stay.

I have a question:
Is it possible to travel outside the country while your 7th year H1-B extension is in progress? The 6 years visa is still valid at this point and the travel is not back to the home country.
I would appreciate your response
Thanks
however you need stamp if you leave US
Are you sure you can get that outside US? It is very risky.
