Chapter 1506 - Ancient Monk Remains
This lion's smile was just too dishonest. The giant lion head looked extremely bold and powerful, and also extremely malevolent, the golden mane several feet long, the snow-white fierce teeth in its wide mouth sharp like daggers.
When Shi Hao landed inside the water, his entire body went rigid, as if he was frozen. Of course, the temperature here was far lower than that of an icehouse. His flesh was being squeezed, simply feeling as if he was going to crack apart.
He inwardly cried out 'not good', quickly resisting.
However, immediately afterwards, the extreme cold disappeared, the pool water suddenly boiling, becoming who knew how many times hotter than magma, divine force overflowing in the pool.
As a result, Shi Hao was inwardly shaken, at the same time, he was frightened. His flesh actually felt as if it was being cooked through, at the same time about to be torn apart. This pool was extremely strange.
He didn't sense any natural luck, instead feeling as if he was going to be ripped apart.
From extreme cold to extreme heat, this transformation happened just too quickly.
"All of you, do not come!" The golden lion shouted.
It was because at this time, six or seven figures rushed up the mountain, now overlooking the pool, their eyes erupting with divine radiance.
While standing on the cliff, they could clearly sense the lake's surging divine force. It was just too strong, moreover, there was a wave of clear fragrance, as if it was a pool of immortal dao elixir.
These people didn't pay the golden lion any attention, directly jumping in, producing a great splash.
Ah…
There were immediately loud cries. Great pain covered their bodies, the pain seeping down to their souls. They couldn't hold on anymore.
There were immediately people who wanted to jump out, starting to struggle, wishing to leave. However, in the end, they were dragged down, confined in the water.
Pu!
Blood splashed outwards. One of them directly melted, turning into a clump of blood, body and spirit erased.
"No! What kind of blasted place is this?!" Another person shouted out. His flesh was being corroded, then, it melted into tens of thousands of strands of multicolored light. He also began to melt.
"Let me go!" The others roared, struggling intensely.
However, all of their bodies broke apart without exception, one after another, some of them directly having their primordial spirits evaporating into a rain of light. Their results were all the same, disintegrating in the pool.
The seven young experts died instantly, body and spirits completely wiped out!
This was a great tragedy, the individuals who came later all died.
What place of natural luck? This was completely a demonic pool!
This conclusion made those cultivators' expressions immediately change. Some of these young experts came from King Clans, yet in the end, they all died for no good reason.
"Little lion, you best give me an explanation!" Below, an elder's face immediately fell.
"Senior, they were too rash, this opportunity isn't that easily obtained." The golden lion shook its head. Just now, it already tried to stop them, but in the end, those individuals didn't listen.
At this moment, in the pool, Shi Hao endured tremendous pain. The instant those people melted, he already knew that this was a devil's nest, that he had fallen into a trap.
The water was too domineering, simply about to crush his flesh apart.
Moreover, his primordial spirit also suffered attacks, about to break apart.
This left Shi Hao extremely puzzled. Why was the golden lion unaffected, not destroyed after it entered?
Shi Hao clearly saw those King Clan youngsters' miserable ends. If not for his innate talents being freakishly powerful, his cultivation profound, flesh strong, he would have followed in their footsteps.
Shi Hao wanted to struggle free, but he discovered that it was as if he had fallen into a swamp, actually unable to budge at all. He was trapped here.
"Heh, you even dare steal my opportunity?" The Fearless Lion laughed, a bit cold, carrying killing intent.
In the distance, when the group of people saw this scene, they all couldn't help but reveal strange expressions. This lion was a bit too vicious.
"No wonder you were acting so high-profile, this was purposely to make me fight over this natural luck with you." Shi Hao looked at it coldly.
During this process, cracks appeared on his body one after another, clearly unable to hold on much longer. The rotten wooden chest floated on the water surface, not sinking.
"Heh heh, I already said that today, you are going to die here. This type of natural luck isn't something anyone can obtain." The golden lion smiled coldly.
Moreover, at this moment, it chanted a type of incantation, the voice extremely indistinct, outsiders couldn't understand it, using this to support its body. It was precisely this type of scripture that ensured its good condition.
Previously, he silently chanted this scripture, now, he directly chanted it. This could also be counted as a type of ridicule directed towards Shi Hao.
Right at this time, the people at the foot of the mountain moved, rushing up the mountain. Of course, there were still half of them who were more cautious, not acting rashly, not ascending the mountain.
"The mission is almost complete, we can bring this chest back!" An elder said with a smile, arriving at the mountaintop.
After being sure that the ancient beast wasn't going to wake, they released a slight breath of relief. Quite a few people stood by the lakeside, looking towards the center of the lake.
"Heh heh, this really is interesting. This is basically catching a turtle in a jar, right?" A middle-aged man mocked, feeling like trapping Huang like this really was quite amusing.
"Haha, Huang, why aren't you running now? Weren't you going to take heads? Don't you feel extremely stupid and cowardly now?!" A few youngsters laughed in an unbridled manner.
Many people came up, standing at the peak, looking at Shi Hao, wishing to witness this special moment.
"If you have the guts, then why don't you come down to capture me?" Shi Hao replied.
His head was drenched in sweat, enduring tremendous pain, body about to break apart. The pain was extremely difficult to endure, even his spirit about to turn into a rain of light, being corroded.
This pool was extremely strange, sometimes cold, sometimes blazing hot. Sometimes, natural laws would extend, and then not long afterwards, scripture sounds could be heard again.
This place was too extraordinary, always changing, and also extremely dangerous. It wanted to turn all living things that entered it into a part of itself.
On the shore, a few youngsters were curious. Sneers appeared on the corners of their lips, not holding back at all as they took action.
Under normal circumstances, they were far from being Shi Hao's opponent. However, now that he was in a critical situation, yet still wasn't willing to lower his head, they naturally wanted to teach him a lesson. They wouldn't mind just killing him here.
Chi!
Large amounts of light scattered down, all of them terrifying ancestral methods. However, what left them shocked was that these methods were all ineffective, absorbed by the divine light, completely neutralized.
"This…" The youngsters' faces were green and red. The enemy was right before their eyes, yet they couldn't do anything to him. This really was absurd.
"Fearless Lion, what is going on?" One of them asked.
At this time, an elder appeared as well, his face overcast, not all that pleasant to look at. It was because one of his descendants dissolved here not long ago.
"Senior, don't do it!" The golden lion warned.
"What, don't tell me not even I can touch this pool?" The elder asked coldly. He didn't give the Fearless Lion much face, feeling like that later generation of his died too unjustly.
The Fearless Lion bloodline really was too powerful, their ancestor suspected to still be alive, intimidating the world. If not for this, this elder really wanted to punish the golden lion.
"This is a Reincarnation Pool. It is extremely bizarre, also called Pool of Tempering. Anyone who enters will endure extreme pain exceeding what one can endure, be crushed." The golden lion explained.
Even if it was a great cultivator, it was all the same. They will endure power exceeding the limits of the Self Release Realm, impossible to resist.
"Then why are you perfectly fine?" That elder asked with a sunken expression. Moreover, he reached out a hand, wishing to give it a try, slightly touching the water.
Chi!
As a result, after a finger touched the lake water, it was slowly corroded. Then, it became badly mangled, almost falling off.
The elder quickly backed up, sucking in a cold breath of air. What kind of blasted pool was this?
When the others saw this, they revealed expressions of shock one after another. Previously, they thought that it only targeted the younger generation, that they could calmly enter.
Now, it seemed like this pool was far more terrifying than they imagined!
"It is because this pool was originally prepared for our bloodline." The golden lion explained.
"What?" Many people were shocked.
Shi Hao endured tremendous pain, holding on this entire time. Even though he was in imminent danger, he still hadn't been destroyed.
This made the golden lion's eyes release divine multicolored light, feeling shock towards Shi Hao's persistence.
"This Reincarnation Pool should be left behind for the ancient monk bloodline…" The golden lion said.
When it came to this place, it sensed the Reincarnation Pool's aura even when it was still far away. It was just like what was recorded in its clan, this was the result of the ancient monk's derivations.
Back the, the Fearless Lion's ancient ancestor had followed the Immortal Monk King.
Perhaps it could be said that the Fearless Lion's ancestor had previously been subdued by the ancient monk, forced to enter this sect.
That was why they were proficient in buddhist methods, grasping all types of ancient monk great divine abilities, knowing many secrets.
"The ancient monk bloodline wished to display reincarnation, this is their magnificent feat…" The golden lion didn't withhold this information.
It couldn't say for sure just what kind of wonderful use this pool ultimately had exactly, but it knew that this pool could be used for cultivation, that it was extremely beneficial for itself.
This was on the premise that it had a type of special ancient scripture, using it to support itself.
At the same time, one needed the ancient monk's constitution!
The so-called ancient monk constitution referred to cultivating this inheritance's methods, grasping the buddhist ways. After reaching great mastery over it, they would inherit a body with wondrous magical force.
In short, it was precisely the body obtained from cultivating the ancient monk bloodline's scripture long term.
The Fearless Lion naturally satisfied the conditions, which was why when it saw this pool, it was immediately moved. This was definitely natural luck for it.
"This pool is so extraordinary, is there really no chance for the rest of us?" An elder asked.
It was because they deeply understood how frightening the ancient monk bloodline was. Back then, the Immortal Monk King had made the foreign side pay an incomparably bitter price.
"Even if I teach you all the scriptures, it has to be cultivated for at least a decade, making the body obtain the buddhist attribute, only then can this pool be entered." The golden lion replied, producing a faint smile.
"Is there really no other way?" A few youngsters were still unwilling to accept this. It was because they already knew that this was an extremely astonishing form of natural luck.
"There is if you are heaven-defying enough, able to endure this tempering, able to survive. However, do you dare try? Since the ancient times, only Immortal Monk King was able to accomplish this when he was young, previously scattering the buddhist nature, yet still wasn't destroyed after entering this pool." The golden lion said.
When it spoke up to here, it frowned. It stared at Shi Hao, because after such a long time, he actually didn't completely dissolve, still remaining alive!
"Why isn't he dead yet? Don't tell me that another Immortal Monk King is going to be produced?!" The eyes of an elder standing on the shore swirled with frightening radiance, staring at Shi Hao.
This drew everyone's attention. Huang had already been down there for quite some time. Based on what the golden lion said, he should have already dissolved, so why was he still alive?

Chapter 1507 - Impossible
Everyone was staring at Shi Hao, even the Fearless Lion like this. It felt like something wasn't right. Even after so much time had passed, Huang still didn't dissolve!
"Don't tell me that this human can make it through!" An elder said with a sunken voice.
At the foot of the mountain, a few more creatures came up. There were sixty to seventy people by the lake, all of them revealing strange expressions. Regardless of how much enmity they had for the youngster in the lake, they had to admit that this was an exceptionally terrifying opponent, his talents freakishly great.
"Impossible! There is only one Immortal Monk King, the only one, no one can take his path!" The golden lion said with a shocked expression.
Everyone stared at the lake. Blood was trickling out from that young man's lips, his entire body cracking apart, but he just didn't die, still holding on.
"Even his body is cracking apart, he can't hold on much longer!" Someone said, revealing a smile. It was because they saw that Huang's injuries were worsening. If this continued, he was definitely heading down a road of death.
Shi Hao's body's injuries were becoming greater and greater, the cracks becoming thicker, bones even becoming visible!
When the golden lion saw this scene, it released a breath of relief, completely relaxing.
"Bring that chest up!" Someone suggested.
Victory was now within grasp, they were about to complete their mission. Huang was trapped here, doomed to inevitable death. The rotten wooden chest was almost in their hands as well.
However, what everyone felt rather awkward over was that this Reincarnation Pool was too special, the water corroding everything. Just now, even a great cultivator already suffered because he was too rash. How were they going to bring the rotten wooden chest up?
It seemed like only the golden lion could do this.
"Seniors, please wait a bit. I am remodeling the golden body through the Reincarnation Pool, already reaching a critical point, needing a bit more time." The golden lion said with a smile.
These words made everyone here tremble. The golden body of the ancient monk bloodline, just how terrifying of an accomplishment was this? It had the title of Vajra Unbreaking Body!
Once it was refined, it would be extremely difficult for external power to injure its body. They would be extremely powerful. At the very least, in the same level, it would be hard for other creatures to harm its body.
Now, this lion was about to accomplish this, achieve a perfect golden body!
They believed that the golden lion was definitely moulding a perfect golden body without any flaws. This was an astonishing feat!
Among the ancient monks, many people cultivated the golden body, but how many of them reached the flawless level? It was always a bit flawed. The Fearless Lion was this calm, carrying a confident smile, he was clearly heading towards an unmatched realm.
This pool was made for it after all, about to create an undefeatable expert!
Unbreakable Golden Body, this signified that one would be innately undefeatable among others at the same level!
The Immortal Monk King back then was precisely like this. He stood there, Zhang Six Golden Body not moving, letting others attack him, yet no one could move him. He really was ridiculously powerful.
Cough! Shi Hao was coughing blood. This time, it was even more serious, blood flowing out from his mouth and nose. Moreover, in the end, blood even poured out from his eyes and ears.
This was extremely terrible, his body enduring tremendous damage. This pool's water was extremely terrifying, crushing him.
The change of the liquid in the pool from extreme cold to extreme heat was a small issue, not much. Right now, the biggest thing was that the sparkling liquid had a demonic type of power, crushing down on his body like a millstone.
Ka!
One could clearly hear the bones in his body cracking, his flesh even more so deforming, cracks everywhere. He was about to break apart soon.
Blood flowed out from his injuries, dyeing the lake water red.
"I refuse to believe that there is no way to fish up that chest." A few youngsters ashore were unconvinced, to the extent where a few older generation figures also felt like that wasn't impossible.
There were some who took action, a few youngsters competing with each other, displaying ancestral techniques, deriving natural laws, forming large hands or great nets, fishing towards the lake.
In the end, when they just approached the lake surface, they completely collapsed.
It was because the lake water boiled, endless multicolored light rushing out, breaking the energy apart, and then completely absorbing it into the lake, in the end completely vanishing.
These youngsters' faces turned green and white, finding this really hard to accept. The golden lion in the lake was forging a golden body while they couldn't even enter the lake, the difference extremely clear.
"Interesting, is it really that magical? Let me give it a try." Another great cultivator took action. His strength was exceptional, at the peak of the Self Release Realm.
He was one of the best of this group of creatures. He activated divine abilities, operating all of his cultivation. His five fingers unfolded, producing great ripples, grabbing towards this lake.
Hong!
However, waves reached into the skies, completely blasting the ripples apart, plundering the divine force he released.
The elder was stupefied, expression dumbstruck. The situation was clear, what the golden lion said was real. The lake was extremely strange, there was no way to make contact with it.
These creatures believed that once they fell inside, there would definitely be danger to their lives.
Even the most powerful elders felt incomparable restraining fear, not daring to take the risk.
"Yi, he still didn't die?" A few people revealed strange expressions.
They saw Shi Hao vomiting large mouthfuls of blood just now, mouth, ears, and eyes all covered in bloodstains, yet now, he was actually still alive and not dead.
"His vitality really is tenacious, I thought that he was going to become a lump of bloody mist soon, yet in the end, he is still bitterly holding on."
A few people commented, all of them feeling that it was strange.
"I feel like we have to send Huang on his way. Letting things run their course like this really is letting him off too easy!" A young foreign expert said.
"Indeed, letting him die alone here is too benevolent. Just how many of my side's elites did he kill during this period of time? He needs to be suppressed and killed!" There were people who nodded, eyes cold.
Hong!
Someone sent a fist smashing over, striking at the space between Shi Hao's brows, ferocious and domineering.
Unfortunately, divine light surged, neutralizing that fist. All of the divine force was absorbed by the lake, completely unable to approach.
That person's face fell. This was just a fist formed from divine force, if it was a real fist, it would have most likely melted.
Qiang!
Someone produced a weapon, a precious engraving. It was a square block, grinded from some type of divine bone. It carried faint essence energy, divine light swirling around it. It smashed outwards.
The block was like a small mountain, surrounding the lake.
As a result, great waves overflowed, surging towards the sky, engulfing this precious imprint, collecting it into the lake. Then, no traces of it could be seen anymore.
"It was dissolved!" That youngster's face fell.
This was extremely embarrassing. They couldn't kill Huang even if they want to, all power would be dissolved when it approached the lake, be broken down into essence energy.
"I am almost done, wait for me to kill him!" The golden lion said.
The benefits it obtained were tremendous, making one feel jealousy and envy. Golden light overflowed like a great flame furnace, refining it thousands of times over. Essence energy poured into its body.
It was exchanging its blood, also shedding its fur. Its flesh was becoming more powerful, walking down the path of a perfect golden body.
On the contrary, Shi Hao's hands and feet were almost broken, about to melt in this pool of water, become a part of this lake.
The Fearless Lion looked towards Shi Hao, its golden pupils surging with divine radiance, saying, "Don't vainly try to compete with me over natural luck. Why don't you look around you, see what kind of place this is? The Reincarnation Pool can dissolve all things, end all living things. Unless you are of the ancient monk bloodline, once you enter, there is only death!"
Shi Hao didn't pay it any attention. Even though his flesh and spirit were about to be torn apart, he still didn't give up. He was persevering on, struggling.
He didn't believe the golden lion's words, because he had previously seen the Heavenly Mouse enter here. It shouldn't have melted.
At this moment, Shi Hao's hands were still gripping the rotten wooden chest, never letting go. He opened his eyes, two bloody lines flowing out. He suffered extremely serious injuries.
Even his pupils were contaminated with blood, let alone the other parts of his body. He looked towards the golden lion, seeing that the other party was forging a golden body as expected, at the crucial moment.
"You talk too much!"
Shi Hao spoke up, his voice resolute. He moved with everything he had, doing his best to break free of this lake's restrictions, wishing to take action against the Fearless Lion.
Hong!
Great waves surged into the heavens. This lake surged violently, essence energy roiling, rushing into the heavens like smoke signals. There were tens of thousands of streaks, this place extremely terrifying.
Shi Hao actually moved, raising his hand with great difficulty, slapping in the golden lion's direction.
"After being restricted for such a long time, your vitality should have been completely dissolved, yet you can actually still move, this really is something quite formidable!" The Fearless Lion said, extremely shocked.
Hou!
It released a great roar, taking the initiative to attack Shi Hao. Even though it was forging a golden body, unable to make movements that were too great, it still couldn't hold itself back.
Putong!
Suddenly, the part of the body Shi Hao exposed on the surface also sunk. His entire body entered the water, avoiding the lion's sound wave attack.
The attacks of others could be disregarded, as the lake would neutralize it, but this lion was special. It had an innate advantage here, not suffering the resistance of the lake. Shi Hao had to remain on guard.
"Why hasn't Huang died yet? He can actually take the initiative to attack. Look, he actually moved in the lake!"
Everyone saw Huang move like a fish, rushing at the golden lion from underwater. However, behind him, there were large amounts of blood, the bloodstains clear.
"Heh heh, this scene really is amusing. Struggle as you will, no matter how you try, what you do, in the end, you will still be killed." The golden lion laughed, not worried. It narrowed its golden pupils, saying, "Killing you like this, I wonder if it is similar to killing a drowning dog?"
This was a type of humiliation. It spoke these words extremely calmly while slowly raising a large golden claw, directly pressing towards the lake!
"Don't be careless, hurry and get rid of him! If he really becomes the second Immortal Monk King, then things will become extremely troublesome!" An elder on the shore said seriously.

Chapter 1508 - Ancient Pool's Origins
This was what the others were worried about as well. They all felt like getting rid of Shi Hao a bit earlier was better, either kill or capture him.
"Throw him up here!" Someone shouted, a young individual. He licked his lips, revealing a mouthful of snow-white teeth, his killing intent extremely strong.
"Correct, how can we just let him die like this? Our side's elites can't have died for nothing, he has to be brought before their graves and sacrificed, kneel before my side and apologize for his sins!" Someone suggested.
The group of youngsters were all noisy, excited and stirred up. At the same time, their expressions carried coldness and killing intent.
"Just throw him up here!" An elder nodded as well, feeling like capturing Shi Hao was better than killing him. They could obtain more secrets from his body.
In the lake, the Fearless Lion's large claw already slapped down, golden light shining brilliantly, extremely dazzling, shaking up the entire lake.
It was currently transforming, so its actions were severely restricted, but it was still much stronger than others, able to take action as usual.
Meanwhile, underneath the water, Shi Hao's entire body felt like it was splitting apart. This lake was like a terrifying millstone that could wipe out all gods and devils, crush him below into a bloody paste.
Blood flowed from his seven apertures, but his body still shone. It was as if a comet smashed into the great earth, about to deliver the lion a fatal strike.
Hong!
Unfortunately, his injuries from this place were too severe, his loss of life force severe. Together with the lake water's suppression, he couldn't display his greatest power.
The result was easy to see. When that large claw descended, he received serious injuries.
The Fearless Lion was extremely large, its great claws like golden hooks. One of them brushed Shi Hao's body, cutting open a gash of flesh and blood, the injury so deep bone could be seen, almost making Shi Hao's inner organs fly out.
"Interesting, you can actually still move in the lake, your strength not completely sucked away by the lake water." The Fearless Lion said.
The creatures on the shore were all moved, because they had previously given it a try, but no matter what kind of power they used, it would always be completely dissolved.
According to what the golden lion said, the pain one endured here far exceeded the limits of their own cultivation realm.
Pu!
Right at this time, a string of blood spurted from Shi Hao's shoulder. His shoulder ruptured, entire right arm about to leave his body.
Then, he released a muffled grown, his right leg trembling, becoming badly mangled. His leg bone broke into several pieces, almost crushed apart.
The situation was becoming worse and worse. There was no need for the Fearless Lion to take action at all, Shi Hao was breaking apart on his own. His current situation was extremely dire.
Pu!
Then, a bloody hole appeared in Shi Hao's chest. His breastbone broke, the lake water wishing to rush inside. One could see his inner organs splitting apart.
"Heh heh… it has finally reached this step. It seems like I'll be able to remove your head if I just give it a light twist. So you were nothing more than this." The golden lion said with a smile.
On the shore, many youngsters were jealous. Huang was going to die under the Fearless Lion's hands in the end, just how enviable of a battle accomplishment was this? The glorious Huang was going to die.
Even those of the older generation revealed strange expressions, because this time, the golden lion's contributions were too great. In the end, the rotten wooden chest could be considered to be seized back by it.
Once Huang died, all the Fearless Lion had to do was fish up the rotten wooden chest and he would have successfully accomplished the mission.
"En?"
Even though Shi Hao was in an impasse, on the verge of destruction, he suddenly developed a strange feeling. It was because even though he suffered injuries, it wasn't to the point where he couldn't resist it. There was an extremely small sphere of light that released strange life force.
Moreover, it was precisely because of this type of resistance that he could transfer some of his body's magical force, his movements also becoming a bit more swift.
He used the Willow Deity Technique, treating his injuries, hoping for his arms, legs, chest, and other parts to recover.
Unfortunately, this wave of life force was extremely weak, healing extremely difficult, unable to immediately be treated. Moreover, in the end, the injuries he was taking on from the lake were greater, so his overall condition was still worsening.
"Yi?" The golden lion seemed to have noticed something. His heart jumped, quickly taking action. It became a bit worried as well.
In its opinion, Huang couldn't be judged with normal reasoning. If he really managed to stick it through, becoming the second Immortal Monk King, then this would undoubtedly become a disaster for him.
Even if he successfully forged the golden body, before a second Immortal Monk King, he would still seem lackluster.
Hong!
The Fearless Lion's large claw slammed over, moreover starting to grab towards that rotten wooden chest.
Shi Hao didn't face it head-on. He felt that type of transformation. His perseverance, powerful constitution, and other factors came into effect, perhaps it will gradually develop in a good direction. Maybe he really can produce an even stronger fighting body through this.
That was why right now, the most important thing to do was to protect himself, to live. He couldn't fall here.
He shifted outwards. Sure enough, this swamp-like lake wasn't able to completely restrict him, his movements extremely quick.
However, the golden lion had the advantage here. This lake's restrictions on it were limited. One of the golden hook-like claws slashed over, almost piercing through the space between Shi Hao's brows. Strange symbols flickered about, terrifying beyond compare.
"Kill him!" A few elders' expressions also changed, having the golden lion take action decisively, deciding to not take captives.
"Good, killing him like this can also be considered rather tasteful." The golden lion said coldly.
It moved slightly, pressing forward, because its golden body was about to complete its forging, so it didn't have to worry much anymore. The new skin was as bright as silk fabric, extremely dazzling.
Divine force immediately surged here, essence energy surging on, divine chains of order covering everything densely.
Shi Hao sighed. He really entered a place of death today. There was a group of people ashore who glared at him like tigers watching their prey, many of them great cultivators. There was no way he could go up.
However, the water was so strange, his body about to be crushed. There was even a ferocious Fearless Lion attacking him.
In the end, Shi Hao clenched his teeth, and then while carrying the rotten wooden chest, he took a deep breath, swimming towards the bottom of the lake. Regardless of whether he would end up dead or alive, he didn't want to fall into those people's hands.
"Where do you think you are going?!" The golden lion's expression changed, following him down the lake.
However, Shi Hao was decisive, also moving quickly, not caring about the dangers of his own body breaking apart. Even if he died, he wanted it to be of his own choices, he couldn't let others kill him.
During this process, his arms, inner organs, and other things were all crushed, and then they shattered. In the end, his entire body warped, deforming, even his skull splitting apart.
One had to understand how powerful his flesh was. However, right now, it was still cracking apart like porcelain.
This lake was too terrifying!
The golden lion chased a set distance, and then its expression completely changed. It couldn't continue down any further, because it was forging a golden body. If it continued down, it would damage its own dao fruit.
Before the transformation was complete, this so-called golden body would be destroyed!
Its eyes flickered with cold light, only when it saw that figure gradually sink further and further, moreover Shi Hao's body breaking to pieces, only then did it release a breath of relief and relax.
No one understood better than it what kind of place the lake bottom was. It was even more terrifying than the upper parts!
The lake water surged. The golden lion appeared on the surface again, its expression incredibly overcast.
On the shore, many foreign cultivators were shocked. That rotten wooden chest wasn't brought up?
"Where is Huang? Is he dead? Where is the chest?!" An elder hurriedly asked.
The wooden chest was a major issue, it definitely couldn't be lost!
"Don't worry, he is dead, he won't be able to live. When I finish forging my body, I will try to head to the lake bottom and bring up the chest." The Fearless Lion replied.
This reply left everyone shocked. It said it was going to try to head to the lake bottom, this alone enough to prove how difficult it was. Was the lake bottom extremely terrifying?
"The lake bottom is extremely shocking, far more extraordinary than what everyone imagines!" The golden lion said, as if it saw through their curiosity.
"Just how did it form? What is there at the bottom of the lake?" A great cultivator asked.
"It was constructed by the buddhas, within it stored unique heaven and earth order, as if it is displaying reincarnation. You all think this water is extremely terrifying, but in reality, it is an unmatched medicine, it is divine liquid." The golden lion's great claws moved through the water as it spoke.
"Divine liquid?" The creatures ashore didn't understand. This water corroded their bodies, they couldn't get close, there wasn't much holiness to talk about.
"There is a type of saying that after generation after generation of great monks died in meditation, their possessions were all dissolved in this lake, ancient buddhas dying generation after generation, bones buried in the Reincarnation Pool, becoming divine liquid." The golden lion said.
This gave everyone a horrifying feeling. The liquid in the pool was formed from the past venerable individuals of the ancient monk bloodline after they died?
To soak in this type of lake, just the thought alone made the skin of everyone on shore produce a layer of goosebumps!
"Everyone is overthinking. As immortal monks, how can their bodies have any impurities? Their bodies are full of divine auras, flesh and blood long purified. Even though they are monks who haven't achieved long life, after entering this pool, they long purified their bodies. Instead of saying their bones are buried here, it is better to say that their divine force ultimately gathered here." The Fearless Lion said.
"If Huang goes down there, what if he survives, ends up obtaining benefits?" Someone hurriedly asked.
"How can that be? The lake bottom is even more dangerous, as long as one enters, the flesh will definitely explode, primordial spirit become a rain of light, completely scatter!" The Fearless Lion said.
"Why?"
"The lake bottom is different. It is rumored that there were some ancient monks who were too powerful, in the end, they didn't completely dissolve, their body's remains still existing, gathered at the lake bottom. If Huang goes down, how can he endure that type of pressure? His body and spirit will definitely be erased!" The golden lion said.

Chapter 1509 - Shattering the Old To Forge the New
When the creatures ashore heard these words, they felt shocked, eyebrows furrowing. This place actually had such a great history!
The burial ground of buddhas, the pool where the bones of immortal monks remained, this made everyone shiver, feel a chill run through their bodies.
This was especially the case when, in the eyes of the ancient monk bloodlines' inheritors, this place was actually holy, exceptional, auspicious, making others feel their bodies become cold.
"This is divine precious liquid?" A youngster almost stammered. This pool was too terrifying.
Of course, there were also people who believed that this place definitely had great secrets, actually about to create reincarnation, become a place of rebirth. It was clear just how extraordinary this lake was.
Only, who dared to go in to investigate?
No one could head to the lake bottom, difficult for even the Fearless Lion, this was something they could tell from its words just now.
However, like this, how was one supposed to bring that chest up? This gave quite a few great cultivators headaches, deeply feeling that things were troublesome.
The Fearless Lion no longer said anything, already closing its eyes. It was doing everything it could to forge its unmatched golden body, about to become a legendary monk expert.
Its family had previously followed the ancient monk bloodline, so it understood a lot about this inheritance, deeply aware of how terrifying they were.
On the shore, a few great cultivators mentioned some of the ancient monk bloodline's battle accomplishments.
"Those monks really are formidable. Rumor has it that back then, after my side's experts pacified the Nine Heavens, they thought they already stabilized the situation. Who would have expected that after inadvertently running into a small temple, inside only a few old monks, in the end, our side's great army received serious injuries."
"Wu, indeed, I also heard that there was previously a small novice buddhist monk who didn't look to be that old, but he similarly wiped out a great army from my side."
When this bloodline was mentioned, there were naturally many legends.
"Little lion, are you sure you can enter the lake bottom, bring up that chest?" A great cultivator asked.
"I will do my best, there should be no issues!" The golden lion replied.
It wasn't a hundred percent confident either, because if the legends were true, then this place was extremely special, quite possibly the ultimate remains left behind by the ancient monk bloodline.
According to legends, there were definitely generations of worthy individuals buried here, to the extent where they were even more ancient than Immortal Monk King.
It was because when Immortal Monk King appeared, the ancient monk bloodline had long existed in this world.
On shore, everyone was worried, scared that they might not be able to obtain the rotten wooden chest.
They tried to open their Heavenly Eyes, but couldn't see through the lake water at all. This was the burial ground of successive generations of monks, where their bones were buried, it wasn't a place they could see through.
As for divine will and other forms of perception, they even more so couldn't peer through, completely devoured once they approached the lake.
Below the waves, Shi Hao's body broke into pieces, truly falling apart, even his primordial spirit about to separate, turn into a sphere of light, about to leave his skull.
This was an extremely terrifying serious injury, there was a chance that he might die here.
Even though he resisted with everything he had, this lake water's power was too great, about to completely break him down, turn him into essence energy, into a part of the lake water.
At this moment, Shi Hao developed a type of horrifying feeling. Could it be that this lake water was created precisely from the decomposition of countless experts?
If this was the case, then it really was a bit terrifying!
He released a low roar. His frontal bone completely split open, lake water pouring in, continuously inflicting serious injuries upon his primordial spirit. Many cracks appeared, multicolored light moreover rising.
If this continued, he would follow in those young cultivators' footsteps. His primordial spirit would evaporate, become a rain of light.
There was a strange lump of life force within his body that resisted this wave of power, but it wasn't powerful enough, unable to free him from this type of great crisis.
"Gather for me!" Shi Hao roared angrily.
His broken body was forcefully gathered together, reassembled with the Willow Deity's method. He struggled about underwater, wishing to restore himself.
"Break through, this is the moment!" Shi Hao said quietly.
After briefly piecing his body together, he began to attack at the breakthrough point. This place was extremely peaceful, so he wanted to rise into the Self Severing Realm. He had already accumulated enough, and now, he wanted to break through in disaster.
Hong!
A wave of terrifying divine light erupted within his body. Even though his body was split up and in pieces, in tatters, mysterious power still appeared in his body.
These were the gates within him being opened, one after another, releasing powerful vitality, healing his flesh, restoring his primordial spirit, making him flourish with strength again.
However, it was precisely because of the appearance of these gates that led to the even more terrifying crashing of the lake water.
At the lake bottom, there was a golden power surging over, directly crushing Shi Hao, even more serious than tearing him to pieces!
This was a serious injury. One had to understand that Shi Hao had great dao injuries left behind from Divine Medicine Mountain Range, and now, in this place, he was suppressed repeatedly, so of course things worsened greatly.
"What kind of power is this?" Shi Hao was shocked. When he was breaking through, he actually encountered this type of attack.
He broke through, attacking at the breakpoint, but was forcefully interrupted.
Right now, his physical body broke apart, primordial spirit separating from his skull, also flickering continuously, corroded by that wave of golden power, about to be disintegrated.
At this time, he turned into a lump of bloody paste and crushed bone, dragged to the bottom of the lake.
The lake water here became even more dense, containing unimaginable power.
However, Shi Hao instead calmed down. His primordial spirit still didn't break apart, clearly capturing the scene below. He immediately felt horrified.
Bones, piles after piles, all of them connected. This was the scene at the bottom of the lake!
The lake water above looked holy, releasing brilliance, sparkling and translucent, yet the scene below was this terrifying, broken bones everywhere.
Just what kind of scene was this?
This was the ancient monk pure land that the golden lion spoke of, the final land of eternal rest? Bones were piled up everywhere, it really was a bit strange and terrifying.
Shi Hao was greatly shaken up, at the same time, he was at the most dangerous moment of his life. The golden multicolored light was released precisely by these bones, wishing to completely refine him.
Hong!
This was especially the case when on the bone piles, there were a few bones that were golden to begin with. They were incredibly divine, releasing gentle light, surrounding him, wishing to completely refine him away.
Right now, his condition was extremely terrible. He already lacked a complete human form, becoming a mass of flesh and broken bones. If he continued to be restricted like this, it would be extremely dangerous.
This sphere of light burned like a golden furnace, burning and roasting him. One could clearly see that Shi Hao's primordial spirit was also breaking apart, just like his body, unable to remain whole.
"Am I really going to just die here?" Shi Hao really was unwilling!
He wasn't willing to give up, still resisting, struggling. The breakthrough process just now was interrupted, now, he already didn't have any greater strength.
Hong!
Shi Hao's lump of flesh exploded, crushed once, becoming a bloody mist, even his bones becoming sand-like particles. He was now completely crushed apart.
At this moment, his primordial spirit turned into many fragments, shining here, about to scatter in all directions.
However, Shi Hao was still struggling without end. He used all of the methods he knew to prevent himself from dying, wishing to hold on.
At this moment, all types of precious techniques appeared, all types of symbols blossomed together. He used all methods he could think of.
A type of strange scripture sound rang out. This time, it was even greater than before, and it allowed him to become fully aware that this was the Imperishable Scripture. It turned into symbols one after another, merging with his fragmented flesh, continuously tangling about them.
It was as if clay was being made, crushed and forged repeatedly.
The Imperishable Scripture was a powerful technique for cultivating the flesh to begin with. In this domain, it could display unimaginable miraculous effects.
After tempering hundreds to thousands of times over, that lump of flesh actually began to squirm, starting to grow again. In the end, it took on the appearance of a body again.
His bones were also growing, connecting again. A body began to condense once more.
Shi Hao wanted to scream, wanted to roar out. Even though his flesh had been recreated, slowly recovering, his primordial spirit wasn't that lucky, still in pieces, possibly breaking to pieces.
Imperishable Scripture was known as an unmatched great method, in the past known as one of the top three most powerful ancient scriptures. The only unfortunate thing was that the primordial spirit couldn't be fixed, or else it would be number one under heaven.
Without a doubt, in terms of cultivating the flesh, this was the number one scripture. It allowed Shi Hao's flesh to be reforged, reappearing. However, the primordial spirit would continue to remain fragmented, still on the path of disappearing.
Hou!
Shi Hao released a great roar, his primordial spirit light doing everything it could to rush into his body. Those fragments headed towards his skull, but in the end, a golden skull pulled at them, preventing him from doing as he pleased.
At the bottom of the lake were many divine bone pieces, one of the golden bones even more mysterious, actually about to suck Shi Hao's primordial spirit away.
Pu!
In the end, these primordial spirit fragments shone, left without a choice, they rushed into Shi Hao's chest, merging into his inner organs, not willing to come back out.
"Reconstruct the flesh, reconstruct the primordial spirit!" Shi Hao said with a low roar.
He was hoping to break through, transform here. The Imperishable Scripture operated, healing his injured body, condensing a powerful, imperishable body.
During this process, his body also underwent a strange process. Within his inner organs, it was as if a mysterious palace formed, consecrating the primordial spirit fragments.

Chapter 1510 - Imperishable Body
The flesh took form, being reconstructed. This was a difficult process. When faced with the water's terrifying power, Shi Hao's Imperishable Scripture displayed tremendous use.
Only, during this process, the primordial spirit that rushed over merged with his inner organs.
Inside his body, his five viscera shone, becoming indistinct, forming five palaces, protecting his primordial spirit.
It was because the external corrosion power was still present, damaging his flesh, disintegrating his primordial spirit.
Meanwhile, his flesh was protected by the Imperishable Scripture, strange symbols condensed into his flesh, making it not that easy to explode again. However, his primordial spirit wasn't supported by the scripture, thus making it extremely weak.
In the end, his flesh's inner organs actually turned into palaces, protecting his primordial spirit!
This was a type of miracle, it actually appeared just like this!
In this type of state, Shi Hao felt a rare peacefulness. He calmed down, not feeling any fear, not feeling any worry, instead watching everything emotionlessly, observing the changes that were happening to himself.
There had always been a type of saying in the world of cultivation,stating that living beings, apart from their original lives, had five more lives, corresponding to the world's five elements. However, they were extremely difficult to truly activate.
Normally speaking, when a creature was killed, then they would die, nothing unexpected would happen.
Only in special cases would one, even after completely dying, still be alive in the end, this even the case when the soul was destroyed!
This was precisely the issue of the five lives everyone discussed.
For example, there were some who could live a second life, this was also because one of the five lives took over, from this able to recover one's youthful vigor, establish a completely new life.
The five lives, together with the main life, in total, meant that one actually had six lives, allowing one to live for six generations.
That was why in the ancient times, there were also people who wanted to establish six dao reincarnation, research this type of secret!
This type of secret was undoubtedly extremely complicated, unimaginable. The path of six reincarnations, the one who walked at the very forefront was precisely the ancient monk bloodline's Six Dao Reincarnations Immortal King.
Right now, Shi Hao saw the things that were happening in his body, gaining some insights, understanding the five lives from a different perspective.
"The five viscera opens five gates, each one connected to a life." He said quietly to himself.
He witnessed some profound mysteries, but this didn't mean that he seized the five lives, but rather just that he witnessed some of the most simple and basic things.
Of course, these were different from the past cultivation paths, which was why the degree of comprehension was also different.
The reason why he could have today's accomplishments was greatly related to using the body as a seed, continuously opening the gates within his body. This was why he could witness some bizarre things!
His primordial spirit was being nurtured in the five palaces within his five viscera, slowly recovering, protected within.
In summary, his primordial spirit was currently divided into five parts, separately hidden in five indistinct palaces like five gods, consecrated there, cultivated there.
After an unknown amount of time passed, Shi Hao's flesh finished its reconstruction, his primordial spirit slowly being restored.
He released a light shout. The five primordial spirit parts rushed out from the palaces, gathering together again, forming a complete primordial spirit, and then entered his skull.
At this time, he sensed that the reconstructed body was especially powerful, actually temporarily stopping the corrosion of the lake water.
"Yi?"
Shi Hao was shocked. His primordial spirit clearly returned to his skull, yet the five viscera's palaces still remained, moreover releasing waves of indistinct scripture sounds.
What was this? He was extremely shocked.
His primordial spirit was already no longer there, who was it that was chanting the scriptures?
The scripture sound was extremely indistinct, and also extremely distant, as if it came from the limits of the horizon, also as if rippling over from the great wasteland, extremely mysterious.
Shi Hao carefully listened, but just couldn't understand it, not knowing what kind of scripture it was.
Shua!
Then, something even more strange happened. An indistinct figure appeared, carrying immortal energy, appearing in the five viscera.
The five palaces were precisely on the five viscera, mysterious and astonishing.
That indistinct figure didn't enter the five palaces, but rather sat down in the space between them. It didn't move at all, as if it was listening respectfully, as if gaining enlightenment there.
Shi Hao immediately recognized that the blurry figure was precisely one of the creatures produced by his three great dao flowers.
"It's him, the one who seems to be living in the past!" Shi Hao was shocked.
That creature had previously took a hit from the Immortal Killing Guillotine for him, almost dying in the process, in the end wrapped around by a reincarnation imprint, binding its body, only then did it not scatter.
After who knew how much time had passed, that figure disappeared with a flash, vanishing.
Then, another figure walked over, sitting here, precisely the one bound by the strand of origin energy, the other creature produced by the great dao flowers that bloomed above his head.
This made Shi Hao suspicious, these two figures appeared one after another here, were they here to listen to scriptures, or to do something else?
He concentrated on studying this, feeling like everything he saw today was not only strange, they would also affect many, many things in the future. The five viscera palaces had great secrets, containing unimaginable power that was worth unearthing in the future!
Now, he didn't have time to think too much anymore. He already sunk to the lake floor, sitting on a pile of bones, currently in a state of equilibrium.
"What a pity, even though my primordial spirit is powerful, there is no way to cultivate it. If there was something comparable to the Imperishable Scripture for the flesh, then it would become incomparable!" Shi Hao was regretful.
However, he also knew that this wasn't realistic. How could all the greatest scriptures fall into his hands.
Without a doubt, his flesh gradually withstood this trial. Apart from needing to carefully protect his primordial spirit, he could already move without much restraining fear.
This time, his flesh exploded to pieces, and then the Imperishable Scripture displayed its power, reconstructing his flesh. This was the same as a rebirth!
"When can I establish a scripture of my own?" He said to himself. He knew that this was still far off, unless he truly mastered many methods of the world, anything he established himself wouldn't be that miraculous either.
Shi Hao wasn't in a rush to get up, instead comprehending everything about himself here. He consolidated his flesh, reforged the body. He didn't seize the power here, instead purely relying on the power released by the gates within his body.
Even though he was currently in a state of equilibrium with the Reincarnation Pool, he still felt misgivings. He wasn't like the golden lion who crazily absorbed the divine elixir within this lake.
In Shi Hao's opinion, with so many bones in this lake, there were definitely many great worthy individuals who died here. This was a lake produced from their dissolved flesh, so he didn't dare rashly try to absorb it into his body.
He didn't want to refine this type of power, he just felt like it was inappropriate.
In his opinion, this was a burial pool. Refining this type of power was not only a type of disrespect for the ancient monks, it was also disrespect towards himself!
"Since I can open up my own gates of potential, release endless energy, reconstruct the imperishable body, then there is no need to absorb this type of corpse burying divine liquid!"
Shi Hao only treated this place as a place of self tempering, not treating it as a medicinal furnace!
In reality, this also perfectly matched the teachings of the ancient monks of the past.
It was because not long ago, the golden lion had said before that this place was called the Reincarnation Pool, also called Pool of Tempering.
It had never been called a medicinal pool before!
"Pool of Tempering, is there only this type of self-sharpening? Now that I stuck it through, does this mean that I passed?" Shi Hao released a breath of relief, because he felt as if his vitality was flourishing, his body more powerful than ever before!
Kacha!
Suddenly, he felt a wave of shock. A noise sounded from the bottom of the lake, as if there was some type of creature trying to make its way out. This made his scalp turn numb.
Then, all types of bones rose. There was a golden skeleton that appeared, only lacking a head, other than that complete, different from the other withered skeletons.
Golden light flashed. The golden skull that wanted to seize Shi Hao's primordial spirit before it appeared, landing on the skeleton's neck on its own, recombining.
Under Shi Hao's shocked gaze, this golden skeleton actually moved, reaching out a bone arm, spreading its hand bones, striking towards Shi Hao.
"En?" Shi Hao was shocked. He actually suffered an attack! The other side's power was too great, moreover completely impossible to evade.
That palm surrounded his entire body, possessing unmatched great dao profound meaning. He actually couldn't avoid it.
Pu!
Shi Hao coughed out a large mouthful of blood, struck until his entire body cracked apart. That palm was completely merciless, making his body release explosion sounds, shaking endlessly.
On the lakeshore, the group of creatures long couldn't sit still anymore, feeling like time had been dragged on for too long.
"Little lion, has your golden body still not finished its forging?" A great cultivator asked impatiently.
"Soon, my unmatched golden body will be forged soon!" The Fearless Lion said, filled with confidence, showing disdain towards the world under the sky.
Then, he spoke up and said, "Seniors, however, please do not worry, soon, I will head down and bring up the rotten wooden chest."
"Are you sure you can do it?" Someone asked.
"I am! I feel like the golden body's remodeling is extraordinary, soon, I will head down to the lake bottom to endure the ancient buddha's eighteen slaps' trial and baptism, further perfect my golden body! I'll then bring that rotten wooden chest back to the surface along the way." The golden lion replied.

Chapter 1511 - Ancient Buddha's Eighteen Slaps
After the golden lion said these things, it no longer said anything, completely focusing on forging the golden body. Even though it was in beast form, right now, it sat down on the lake, its appearance dignified.
It was like a great sun, releasing golden light. The back of its head actually released buddha energy, forming a mysterious halo. There was even more so an indistinct chanting voice that sounded!
"This little lion is not simple. I previously heard that only the senior monks who could attain enlightenment, having powerful potential, could condense the buddha aura brilliant image, having buddha sounds surround them. It actually accomplished this!" An elder said with a sigh.
The Fearless Lion was forging an unmatched magical body, after he reached the highest level, he could enter the lake bottom, receive the Ancient Buddha Eighteen Slaps, make his war body perfect!
At the bottom of the lake.
Waves surged, golden multicolored light endless. Auspicious light surged like a volcano, continuously erupting.
Everything was produced by that golden skeleton!
It sat down in the endless skeleton remains, releasing a sphere of blazing light. Buddhist chants rumbled, divine light incomparable, as if an immortal monk was reborn, illuminating the world.
It was divine, also auspicious and peaceful, but for Shi Hao, it was terrifying. Because of it, he coughed out blood, his body breaking apart.
It was because this golden skeleton, even though it sat there, it restricted Shi Hao. A hand struck out at him, the weight behind it unendurably heavy.
That golden hand was who knew how many times more powerful than magical artifacts. It struck his body, covering the imperishable body he had just forged with cracks.
Blood flowed out strand after strand. Shi Hao's entire body was scarlet red, blood flowing out from the great cracks of his body.
This was only the third strike, yet he already felt like he was falling apart!
It wasn't that he wasn't strong enough, nor was it because the Imperishable Scripture only produced an outer form, but because this golden skeleton was too terrifying, its cultivation realm when it was still alive immeasurable.
Even though it died, the power left in those golden bones was still enough to easily kill Void Dao Realm cultivators!
It was easy to see that this golden skeleton didn't deliver a killing strike. Otherwise, things would be even more terrible.
After three strikes, the arm bones stopped, not continuing the strikes.
En?
Shi Hao was shocked, but he didn't think too much, quickly treating his injuries. During this process, he examined himself, discovering some issues.
The areas the palm struck were all his weakest areas, as if it was 'picking faults'!
He was inwardly shocked, realizing something. Did this golden skeleton have a deeper significance? Was it giving pointers in cultivation, able to help him go a step further?
A moment later, Shi Hao used his most powerful methods to recover, those areas deeply engraved in his memory. Moreover, he immediately began to cultivate.
Shi Hao sucked in a cold breath of air. When he operated the Imperishable Scripture with full force, dealing with those parts, there was hazy light that surged, immediately solidifying those areas.
He believed that this wasn't because of the Imperishable Scripture's effects, but instead had something to do with the golden skeleton's strikes.
When everything calmed down, Shi Hao's expression was strange. Was this skeleton helping him improve his constitution?
Peng!
Right at this time, an expanse of golden light surged. A golden bone arm was raised, moving towards Shi Hao. It wasn't extremely gentle, the force even greater now.
Another round of slapping began!
Sure enough, Shi Hao coughed out large mouthfuls of blood again, suffering serious injuries, his condition becoming even worse than before.
However, he wasn't scared, on the contrary, quite looking forward to the result. He was hoping to find his weak points through these strikes.
After three strikes, Shi Hao's entire body was in intense pain, bones breaking in many areas, cracks covering him densely. The scene was a bit terrifying.
After three strikes, that golden skeleton stopped moving again.
Shi Hao frowned. Could it be that his body had this many flaws? This shouldn't be the case!
When he carefully examined himself this time, he knew that it was the result of the flaws being magnified endlessly. If he tried to find them himself, not even the Heavenly Eyes would be able to do it!
Only after the flaws were magnified so greatly, and then a heavy strike delivered, would his body be covered in blood.
"Exactly, in this world, what is there that is without fault, what is there that is perfect? If one searches carefully, there will always be flaws to be found. With the golden skeleton's cultivation, finding weaknesses in a cultivator of my level is naturally not difficult."
Shi Hao came to this decision. He no longer frowned, instead relaxing, fully concentrated on studying, moreover recovering his injured body, making up for his weaknesses.
During this process, the Imperishable Scripture shone, rumbling with noise. It was as if his body was struck by lightning.
Then, the golden skeleton moved again, releasing another there palms. It was just as Shi Hao suspected, this was completely picking faults. The three palms this time struggled to find weaknesses, so it directly attacked at the gates within Shi Hao's body, making those places become chaotic.
Large amounts of clear light surged, a powerful aura rushing out from within the gates!
Shi Hao was shocked. This really was assisting one with their cultivation!
The golden skeleton didn't have a consciousness, only a type of natural law instinct moving it. There was a type of mysterious order interweaving, making this type of behavior become a type of primitive reaction.
The golden skeleton was actually meddling with the gates in Shi Hao's body, wishing to make them open up even larger, the power they released greater.
However, even someone as powerful as this skeleton, previously an immortal monk, could be called a buddha, wasn't omnipotent, unable to truly get involved with everything.
In the end, the 'gates' stabilized, unaffected, still releasing hazy light. They were like ancient caves, secret force flowing about in an unhurried manner.
When another strike was released, that bone hand directly grabbed Shi Hao, forcefully crushing, as if it was kneading clay, almost making him scream out.
An expanse of golden light flickered about. Shi Hao was crushed until his body was in tatters!
However, soon afterwards, he recovered again. He was then turned about within the hand bones, continuously crushed.
From then on, the golden skeleton no longer released three strikes each time, but rather carried them out one at a time, moreover giving Shi Hao ample time to recover.
Even if there weren't any of the so-called flaws left, this hand would still crush him until he was seriously injured, its instincts forced it to harshly find flaws.
"Not good!"
Shi Hao sensed that things weren't good. The bone hand removed his primordial spirit, lightly tapping it. This was extremely terrible, the problem extremely severe.
However, he thought too much. At his current level, his primordial spirit strength had long become ridiculously powerful, far exceeding his peers, there was no danger to his life at all.
He was originally worried that he didn't have a primordial spirit cultivation method on the level of the Imperishable Scripture, so there might be some huge issues. However, in the end, he found that there were no problems at all, the bone hand was only tempering his primordial spirit.
His primordial spirit seemed to have shrunk a bit, but it became even purer, becoming more durable. In summary, its strength didn't decrease, but rather increased!
Immediately afterwards, when the bone hand left his primordial spirit, after he recovered, it struck his body until it cracked apart, forcing out a great dao flower, moreover making it blossom, reveal the little person within.
That was the one who seemed to live in the past, the one who seemed to be endlessly far away from his own true body!
On this little person's body was a Reincarnation Imprint. Ever since it took Shi Hao's place, blocking the Immortal Killing Guillotine, it was bound, unable to free itself all this time.
Now, this golden hand struck its body, triggering an astonishing change.
Shi Hao could vaguely hear a distant low roar, accompanied by scripture sounds. Moreover, there were large amounts of chaotic light and immortal energy that pervaded outwards.
Pa!
Another strike was released. That golden bone struck the little figure. The Reincarnation Imprint was actually knocked aside, falling off, in the end engraving itself on Shi Hao's hand once more.
He had five Reincarnation Imprints in total. In the beginning, they were all on his hand, and now, the one that left also returned from the little figure to his palm.
At the same time, Shi Hao felt his body tremble, as if some fetters had been undone. His entire being felt much more carefree and comfortable.
It was as if he had been imprisoned in a dark prison for a long time, now finally seeing sunlight again, even his body and mind feeling open and free.
This left him greatly shaken. He could clearly feel his entire body becoming more and more nimble, resonating with the dao even more than in the past, more suitable for cultivation!
"Right, now that a true shackle has been undone, only then can I really break into the Self Severing Realm without any worries!"
Shi Hao finally understood. In the past, when he wanted to break through, there was always a subconscious resistance, feeling like he still had to sharpen himself. It was because there really were some flaws within himself, and now, they were made up for.
Afterwards, this golden skeleton struck out from time to time, tempering Shi Hao's body and spirit repeatedly!
It could be said that eventually, there were no flaws to be found, but the bone hand still didn't let him go, still striking him each time until he continuously coughed out blood.
Shi Hao counted. This golden skeleton struck him eighteen times in total, and only then did it stop.
"Wu, it is about time for me to go, I have already completely forged the golden body, it is time to accept the Ancient Monk's Eighteen Slaps baptism, be tempered to a perfect and flawless state!" On the lake surface, the Fearless Lion opened its eyes.

Chapter 1512 - Unbreaking Golden Body
The golden lion felt incredibly powerful, never feeling this comfortable before. Never had he felt as free as right now, this type of bright and clean dao heart. His constitution feeling as if it transcended the mortal level.
Right now, it was calm and confident, because it really did succeed, successfully forging a golden body. This meant that an unmatched war body was about to be produced.
If nothing unexpected happened, after experiencing the Buddha Eighteen Slaps, he could overlook all of his peers!
"You succeeded?" An elder was moved. This young lion transformed right before their eyes. This really was a tremendous opportunity.
"I was fortunate to be able to." The Fearless Lion nodded, extremely calm and dazzling. Its entire body's golden fur flickered with radiance, brilliant and dazzling.
A few youngsters' expressions were complex. They personally witnessed everything, seeing the Fearless Lion's entire transformation process.
"Perhaps it can now compete even against those from Emperor Clans." Someone commented.
"Unless he can truly evolve to a perfect body, he still has no chance. The Emperor Clan young great one isn't that easily caught up to!" There were some others who didn't believe this, retorting.
"Are you going to head to the lake bottom next? Do you have confidence?" A great cultivator asked. This was something they paid great attention to, because the rotten wooden chest was below.
"I have sixty to seventy percent chance confidence that I can pass the trial of eighteen slaps, experience that baptism!" The golden lion said.
"You don't have a hundred percent certainty?" An elder asked, revealing worry.
It was because once the golden lion went down, it wasn't all smooth sailing. There was a chance that it wouldn't be able to come back up.
This Fearless Lion's powerful talent was something they could all see. If it died like this, it really would be a pity. Even more importantly, who would be able to fetch the rotten wooden chest then?
"The Ancient Buddha Eighteen Slaps is a type of baptism, even more so a type of cruel test. There are some flaws that will be endlessly magnified, just a light slap would be equivalent to a fatal blow. Normal people would have their body and spirit erased from a single slap!" The Fearless Lion said. It only dared to head down precisely because the forging of the golden body succeeded.
"My golden body has already formed, so based on normal reasoning, the flaws are already negligible, but they will still be magnified. That is why I say there is sixty to seventy percent certainty." It explained a step further.
Everyone sucked in a cold breath of air. The golden lion's transformation was something they could all see with their own eyes, even his fur came off, replaced with a new layer, bones all reconstructed, the golden body also complete. This could already be considered transcending above, yet it still didn't have a hundred percent certainty, possibly dying underneath! This was something that left all of them shaken.
Ancient Buddha's Eighteen Slaps, it would greatly magnify all faults. There was a chance of dying under a few strikes even if geniuses went down!
At the bottom of the lake, Shi Hao calmed down, experiencing an unprecedented comfortable state. His entire body was warm, as if he was near a great furnace.
That skeleton already scattered, returning to the pile of withered bones.
Shi Hao no longer suffered attacks. The Ancient Buddha Eighteen Slaps ended. He felt like his body was now perfect without flaws, his imperishable body, in the current cultivation realm, couldn't be improved at all.
"This trip has been perfect, the gains tremendous!" Shi Hao said to himself.
Rather than the rise in strength, Shi Hao was more satisfied in the 'release' of that creature on his great dao flower. It even made his true body feel free, shackles undone, more suitable for cultivation.
"Yi, could it be that lion came down to kill me?" Shi Hao's eyes revealed brilliant light. Waves surged, a blurry figure dove down.
Sure enough, it was the Fearless Lion. Its golden light was brilliant, as if a golden heavenly sun was descending.
The Fearless Lion was extremely confident, feeling overjoyed inside. It was because it wanted to carry out an astonishing self tempering. Once it made it through, it could overlook the world.
At that time, it wouldn't fear anyone.
"I will definitely rise up! No one will be able to stop me!" It was brimming with confidence.
"It's quite the pity that I wasn't able to personally kill Huang. His body will completely dissolve in this type of place, not even a bone remaining. Otherwise, it would have been nice to take his head." The golden lion felt a bit of regret.
Its achievements were great, forging a powerful golden body, yet in the end, the other party died before it was able to behead him.
In its opinion, this really was a bit regretful. If Huang was still alive, if it was the one who defeated and beheaded him, then everything would be perfect.
"You could not grant me another glorious battle accomplishment, this really is a bit regretful." The golden lion shook its head.
Shi Hao revealed a strange expression as he watched that blurry figure approach. He didn't immediately take action, just standing there like that.
"Who?!"
The golden lion was shocked. There was actually a living being on the withered bone piles, having flesh and blood. Its face immediately changed.
The main thing was that this lake was too extraordinary, even Heavenly Eyes losing effectiveness. This was a lake formed from the flesh and blood of ancient buddhas, able to block all forms of prying.
"It's you? You are still alive!" Immediately afterwards, the golden lion was shocked. It was because not far out, it saw how calm Shi Hao was, leaving it in complete disbelief.
Not long ago, it personally saw Shi Hao break apart into pieces, fall to the lake bottom. It thought that Huang had long died, body and soul wiped out, unable to continue living.
However now, a perfectly intact Huang was standing right at the bottom of the lake, leaving it in disbelief.
"Didn't you want to personally remove my head? I wanted to give you a chance, which is why I am waiting for you right here." Shi Hao calmly said.
However, this made the golden lion feel a chill. One had to understand that Shi Hao's body was broken apart, yet now, he was as good as before. Moreover, Huang remained at the bottom of the lake, enduring its pressure.
This alone already explained many things. Huang withstood the lake water produced from the flesh and blood of monks, making it through.
What did this signify? It might very well mean that this was a second Immortal Monk King, that an unmatched body was created!
When Immortal Monk King was young, he had previously scattered his buddhist nature, coming here to temper himself. He successfully made it through, in the end becoming exceptionally powerful!
In all of history, there was only one example of this!
"Now, another one has appeared…" The Fearless Lion backed up. It was alarmed. Even though it was confident, it also clearly understood how dangerous this enemy was.
It looked left and right, hoping to see the bottom of the lake, searching for something.
"Are you looking for that golden skeleton? It has already scattered. Did you want it to slap you, create an unmatched golden body?" Shi Hao laughed.
He didn't have a single good impression of this race. Back then, it betrayed the Nine Heavens, guiding the foreign side's great army over to kill the people of this side, their hands covered in blood, their sins couldn't be forgiven!
Moreover, not long ago, this golden lion even more so targeted him, almost forcing him to death. This was why Shi Hao was fuming with anger, wishing to immediately kill it.
"You seized my natural luck?!" The golden lion was furious. When it heard the other party's words, it knew that Huang received the Ancient Monk's Eighteen Slaps baptism.
Within a set amount of time, there was no way this baptism could appear again. Huang seized it a step before it!
"Don't worry, even if the golden skeleton has scattered, I still remember how the strikes are. Let me help you!" Shi Hao said with a smile. He rushed up, slaughtering towards the Fearless Lion.
Hong!
This place immediately erupted, essence energy surging, divine force overflowing.
"Yi, what happened? The disturbance at the bottom of the lake seems to have gotten a bit big, as if there is a great battle!" On the shore, a few people felt greatly shocked.
It was because this lake was extremely special, even if the disturbance was great, it would still remain calm, because that liquid was created from the essence blood and other parts of generations of ancient monks, able to suppress everything.
However now, the lake was in chaos. There was definitely something going on within the lake.
"Could it be that the little lion encountered trouble, unable to endure the Ancient Buddha's Eighteen Slaps' pressure?" Someone said in suspicion.
Honglong!
Waves surged, immortal mist spreading. A golden lion that was covered in blood rushed up, a great claw warped, its body having a terrifying bloody hole, blasted open by someone's fist.
"Yi, what happened to you?" On shore, a few great cultivators were shocked.
The golden lion was furious, struggling about, wishing to escape to the shore, However, a hand then grabbed its leg, dragging it back to the lake bottom.
Everyone was alarmed. Why did another creature appear in the lake? Whose hand was that? Some of their scalps began to turn numb.
"Don't tell me it is Huang? Didn't he die, his flesh and blood turned to essence energy?!" Someone shouted.
Hong!
The golden lion rushed up again, this time even more miserable, body almost torn apart. It roared, producing great waves.
Then, everyone saw a youngster appear on the surface. A hand grabbed the golden lion again, wishing to pull it back to the lake bottom.
"What? It really is Huang!"
"Heavens, he is actually still alive! Don't tell me he is going to become a second Immortal Monk King?!"

Chapter 1513 - Steam or Roast
"He really is Huang!"
The group of people erupted into commotion, not expecting Huang to be alive no matter what. Even after so much time had passed, he still hadn't been refined by the lake into divine liquid!
This was outside everyone's predictions. From the information the Fearless Lion told them, this was the ancient monk bloodline's burial ground, where their bones were. The sparkling liquid was formed from their flesh, with no lack of immortal monk essence blood and divine force.
It could be said that almost all things dissolved here, only those who cultivated the monk bloodline's scriptures and developed a buddhist nature could survive here. Otherwise, they would all die!
However, the end result wasn't like this. Huang lived, this was a miracle!
"There has only been a single person who has achieved this in history, which is the Immortal Monk King without his buddhist nature!"
"Could it be that Huang's talents are just that frightening?"
A few people's expressions changed. This was an extremely shocking piece of information, if it got passed out, it would definitely trigger huge waves, leave many great clans shocked.
It was because this really was astonishing potential!
Who was Immortal Monk King? This was an immortal king, one of the world's most powerful existences, on the level of Shutuo and Anlan, immeasurable.
Huang actually had this type of aptitude, his accomplishments here actually equivalent to that monk king! From a certain standpoint, this already proved his inner qualifications.
One had to know that this world never lacked geniuses. With each generation, the so-called heroic talents would always appear in large numbers. However, just how many of them could truly become undying kings?
From past until now, this was a question that was difficult to reply to, one that left them feeling helpless.
No one could say for sure what kind of genius could ultimately become an immortal king level individual.
Regardless of whether it was the ranked younger generation individuals or the older generation ranking, it couldn't be used as good reference for determining if one could become an immortal king.
As generations went past, not even the number one of each era can necessarily achieve long life status, let alone be called a king.
Geniuses emerged in large numbers, this wasn't just a saying. The foreign side was too vast, yet a great era might not even have one or two who could succeed the path of immortal kings. That really was too difficult.
How powerful was the backing of an Emperor Clan? Their clans had unmatched existences to begin with, yet even with these types of experts, they still might not be able to produce a successor in their clan.
This was a type of proof right there, immortal kings weren't individuals that could be sought. Shutuo, Anlan, among their descendants, there were some whose talents were world-shaking, but they just couldn't become immortal kings.
Meanwhile, this ancient pool gave out some clues, having great reference value!
It was because the ancient monk bloodline had studied this extensively, saying that this pool could serve as a test of potential of sorts. There was a great senior monk who previously said that if anyone could make it through, in the future, they might become an immortal king!
Later on, someone who cultivated a Zhang Six Golden Body, a young monk who was known to be undefeated had previously scattered all of his dense buddhist nature as well, using this pool to refine his true body, in the end surviving.
This became a living example, because in the end, he became the only Immortal Monk King!
The Reincarnation Pool made an accurate forecast, confirmation obtained, which was why there were some foreign individuals that couldn't sit still. This was related to too much!
"We have to kill him! We cannot allow him to grow up!" An old daoist said. He wore silver robes, imposing and powerful.
This was a great cultivator who had just rushed here, his presence the most powerful. He seemed to be the most powerful individual here now.
If it was before, it was one thing, but now that he rushed here, hearing everyone's discussions himself, learning that this was Reincarnation Pool, he immediately understood what kind of place this was.
At first, many people didn't know, only knowing what they learned from the golden lion, and only then did they know a bit.
However, this elder's identity was different, coming from an Emperor Clan. Even though he was only a relative, the bloodline a bit distant due to some special reasons, after cultivating for many years, his status was still there.
He knew many secrets. After quickly speaking about them, it naturally left the group of people shocked!
"This has a high chance of foretelling that he will head down the path of immortal king in the future? This won't do, he has to be eliminated regardless of the cost!"
When the others heard this, their minds were naturally shaken.
No one knew better than them how terrifying someone of that level was. There was simply no way to face them head-on! They had world-shaking matchless strength.
One had to understand that back then, the other side didn't only have Anlan, Shutuo, and the others. After the accumulation of several great eras, the unmatched existences were extremely terrifying.
However, when facing the Nine Heavens, the other side also had immortal kings, in the end dragging down a few extremely powerful ancestors down with them.
This was the cruel reality. At that level, it really was too terrifying.
If Shi Hao became an immortal king, then that meant that he might be able to go all out and take down an ancient ancestor. This definitely couldn't be allowed, something that was unbearably heavy!
In the past, there were some people who already attached great importance to Huang, especially the younger generation, viewing him to be a great enemy, all of them wishing to get rid of him.
However, the older generation didn't care that much, because they had seen just too many geniuses. The great river of history was so long, if they cared, with outstanding individuals appearing generation after generation, there were just too many to even count.
In the end, many of them were completely submerged by the masses.
However, now, it was completely different. When the silver-robed elder learned of the truth, that this was a place that made accurate predictions, everyone couldn't sit still anymore.
"This generation's sole extraordinary individual might very well become an immortal king? Kill him!" Another elder with a powerful aura shouted.
This was an order for absolute death, failure couldn't be tolerated. They had to kill Huang, couldn't allow him to continue living.
Otherwise, there would be an unimaginable disaster in the future.
Kill an undying king? What kind of joke was this? He couldn't be allowed to grow up at all!
In a few people's eyes, the death of Huang was already comparable to obtaining the rotten wooden chest, perhaps even a bit greater.
However, this place was too strange. They had all their skills for nothing, just unable to go down, no way of entering the Reincarnation Pool to kill Huang.
This place was too extraordinary, refining all things!
Regardless of how powerful your cultivation was, it was all meaningless, the terrifying power here would always be more powerful, completely suppressing you!
"Things don't look too good. Could it be that we can only watch, unable to do anything to him? You have to understand that that wooden chest is still in the water!" Some people started to feel nervous.
Hong!
The lake water surged again. The golden lion roared, rushing out from the bottom of the lake again.
However, everyone saw that this was futile, a powerless struggle, unable to deal with Huang at all.
Right now, the Fearless Lion really was too miserable, its entire body bloody, large amounts of its fur falling off, injuries numerous, even the bones could be seen in some areas. It really was terrifying.
Pu!
A pair of sparkling hands appeared, perfect and flawless, reaching out from the water depths, directly tearing the golden lion's body apart, almost ripping it into two.
Hou...
The Fearless Lion roared out, entire body shining. A vague chanting sound was released, buddhist light shining, mending his terrifying injuries.
The splitting body was repaired, not torn in half.
However, this was a supposed remedy that only made things worse, this already happening several times. If not for it struggling again and again, igniting its essence to repair its body, it would have long been torn to pieces.
This made the expressions of all those ashore change, especially the younger generation, their faces becoming incomparably pale, expressions panicked.
What kind of person was the golden lion? It was a well-known figure among the younger generation to begin with. Apart from Emperor Clans, who else could suppress it?
Yet now, it fell to this type of state. It was just too miserable.
This was especially true when it had just obtained great natural luck, forging the ancient monk bloodline golden body before everyone's eyes. This was a magical body that had glorious battle accomplishments!
In a few people's perspective, if this lion was smoothly baptized at the lake bottom, the golden body perfect and flawless, then it had the qualifications to overlook the younger generation.
Many people believed that at that time, it could challenge the Emperor Clans.
However, in the end, it was still in such a miserable condition, almost about to be torn apart by someone, all of its bones ready to be pulled out.
Just how pitiful of a thing was this? It had just reached the peak, yet it was directly trampled to the ground by another.
Right now, quite a few people sympathized with the Fearless Lion. It really was too unfortunate, after just forging the golden body, it ended up encountering a freak like Huang.
This was originally a time to be celebrating, about to reach the peak, overlook the world below the mountain top, yet it was now beaten silly by a freak!
The current golden lion was naturally in incredible grief and indignation. It was only a step away, about to have its flaws removed, achieve a perfect, unmatched golden body, yet along the way, someone who should have died slaughtered his way over, seized its opportunity, taking on the eighteen slaps before him.
Its ambitions were great, originally already rising to the peak of its life, about to roar into the heavens, fulfill its desires, yet in the end, it was knocked straight down to the foot of the mountain by a kick.
It was just that ruthless, making it feel as if it fell straight from heaven to hell. There was nothing more miserable, more depressing than this.
One had to know that not long ago, when Huang was weak, it had taken action, almost killing the other party, yet now, the situation was completely flipped.
"Ah, I can't accept this!" The golden lion roared, going crazy from hatred, already mad.
"So what if you can't accept it? Back then, when your clan defected, killing countless creatures from the Nine Heavens, the debts of blood crying out for retribution, you should have long thought that there might be today's result." Shi Hao said.
"Let me think… should I steam or roast you…" Shi Hao said to himself, completely ignoring those creatures ashore, leaving them furious, yet completely powerless.

Chapter 1514 - Conditions Astonishing
A chill ran through the Fearless Lion's scalp. This Huang was too savage, actually wishing to eat it?
It was a bit scared. For a creature of its status, it was second only to Emperor Clans, exceeding many King Clans. If it was treated as food, then that really was a joke.
"You…" The Fearless Lion was shocked and angry, at the same time a bit frightened. Being eaten was a result that was even harder to accept than death.
Kacha!
A bone fracturing sound rang out. The golden lion felt an intense pain from its tail, the entire brilliant golden lion tail already broken, smashed by Shi Hao, leaving it ashamed and furious. This really was a great humiliation.
It was too shameful! The other party was simply a monster. Right now, it couldn't contend against him at all, not his opponent at all.
Just now, it attacked frantically underwater, doing everything it could to take action, putting on a life and death struggle, but Huang's flesh was sturdy and unbreaking. It couldn't do anything to him.
For the Fearless Lion who had just forged its powerful golden body, this was a great mental blow.
Its greatest natural luck and gain in the Reincarnation Pool was a refining of the body, a rebirth, carrying out an ultimate evolution. However, after it had just obtained results, becoming the most powerful it had ever been, it lost, moreover extremely miserably, completely defeated.
Putong!
Water splashed out. Shi Hao appeared on the surface, carrying the massive golden lion while facing everyone. This scene was extremely domineering. His eyes were like cold lightning, holding this lion who had terrorized the foreign younger generation like holding a dead dog, completely treating it as an ingredient.
This made the faces of the youngsters turn completely snow-white. Huang's strength became another chunk stronger, long exceeding what they could deal with, only the attacks of older generation figures enough against him.
Shi Hao now completely appeared on the surface. After cultivating an imperishable body here, he became much more carefree. He swept his eyes over everyone.
"Huang, do you know what kind of end you will experience?" An elder shouted, glaring at the young male in the lake.
"Old shameless thing, you better not threaten me!" Shi Hao directly threw strong words back, extremely forceful. Until now, he had been pursued by the foreign great army the entire time, was there anything worse than this?
They had long reached a point where they wouldn't stop until one side died, what path of retreat was there to speak of? He didn't care what the other party's attitude was at all.
Now that he cultivated an undefeatable body here, this was the first time he faced everyone calmly. Even if he was surrounded by everyone, he was still full of confidence.
He was assessing the current situation.
"You are courting death, definitely won't survive!" Someone shouted.
"Wait!" The silver-robed elder raised his hand, not letting the others act too irritably. He revealed a faint smile, looking towards Shi Hao and saying, "Your talents and accomplishments are things everyone can see, it really is something one cannot help but admire!"
Shi Hao looked at him calmly, remaining unmoved.
"Youngster, being buried in Imperial Pass is too much of a pity, you will never have any fate with immortal dao. You have to understand that the environment there is extremely vile, it doesn't allow for the achieving of immortality at all." The silver-robed elder said.
"What do you want to say? You should just directly say what you want to say." A hint of mockery appeared on the corners of Shi Hao's lips.
"With your talents, in the Nine Heavens, it will undoubtedly be like pearls before swine. If you are willing to defect to my side, your life will be filled with endless brilliance, leaving behind an undying name in history." The silver-robed elder actually spoke like this.
"You're overthinking things!" Shi Hao only had this ice-cold response. How could he possibly defect like the Fearless Lion bloodline?
"Only by being able to see the world through the viewpoint of the greater situation can it be considered true wisdom, the intelligent will always seek fortune and avoid calamity. In the future, Imperial Pass is doomed to fall, all those who resist will die. You should understand what kind of situation that is." The silver-robed elder said.
He gave Shi Hao a look, and then continued, "If you join my side, making a great dao blood oath, your future accomplishments will be limitless, one day you will become a king, become an ancestor. Moreover, we can clearly promise you that even if your current strength isn't enough to intimidate all, as long as you are willing to come over, we will immediately allow you to establish a powerful clan, a great clan that belongs to you alone. It will exceed normal king races, one that does not need to bow before Emperor Clans!"
Everyone was shocked, because everyone understood well just how shocking the conditions this elder raised were.
What cultivation realm was Huang at right now? Yet they still offered this level of status!
In history past, only the Gu Clan, Blood Phoenix, and other specific clans could be like this, not bowing before Emperor Clans, having similar statuses.
Now, just a single youth who was twenty something years old was given such a high position. This exceeded their imaginations.
"Who do you all think you are, think you all are Shutuo, Anlan? What qualifications do you have to grant such titles?!" Shi Hao mocked. He didn't treat this as a big deal at all.
The silver-robed elder, in the beginning, was dead set on eliminating Shi Hao, but now, he had this attitude, leaving the others shocked. He was incredibly serious, saying, "You can question us, however, I am saying that this is all true. I have ways of proving this, because I come from an Emperor Clan! Even though the bloodline has become weak, it is still enough to request an ancient ancestor decree!"
When the people here heard this, they were all shocked. He wasn't just all talk, but really meant it?
"I have heard that the Emperor Clans' bloodlines are domineering, numbers extremely few, difficult to produce descendants. However, no matter what race they marry with, if there is a descendant, in the end, their own clan's bloodline would always be inherited. Why is your blood thin?" Shi Hao asked, rather curious.
He completely overlooked the main point, more interested in this issue.
It was because back then, he had also fought against someone from a branch family with thinner blood. This didn't match the 'bloodline theory' that he later learned.
The elder's face went from green to red, extremely ugly.
"Youngster, I can take this as you ridiculing me. I am inviting you to my side with sincerity, yet you didn't feel grateful, unable to tell what's good or bad. Moreover, if you wanted to, I could have immediately went to fetch an Emperor Clan magical decree, grant you a top level great clan, one that doesn't need to bow down before Emperor Clans!"
"There's no need, I have no interest at all. Do you think everyone is like the Fearless Lion bloodline, their knees that weak, having no courage? If you all want me to bow my head, that's impossible. When we meet in the future battlefield, I will definitely cut down your ancient ancestors one by one!" Shi Hao said resolutely, his voice resounding and powerful, extremely ear-splitting.
This left everyone stupefied. This youngster really was too crazy! He was just one person, not even achieving long life, yet he already wants to kill Anlan and the others? He really overestimated his capabilities!
Shi Hao didn't pay everyone any attention, instead lowering his head towards the golden lion, trying to figure out what to do with it. He said to himself, "Simmer-fried lion head[1]? This really isn't just a name, but really the dish. Pan-fried lion ribs, cooked to seventy percent done, the taste shouldn't be too bad."
The Fearless Lion was immediately humiliated. This was just too shameful.
A strand of cold light flickered past the depths of its pupils. The bow was drawn but not released, it was gathering power, preparing to release a fatal blow.
It was because it had long reached the consummate level of the Void Dao Realm, able to break into the Self Severing Realm. However, for the sake of completing the golden body, it had always been suppressing itself, wishing to wait until after experiencing the Ancient Buddha Eighteen Slaps baptism before truly rising to a higher cultivation realm. It wanted to solidify its dao foundation, become even stronger.
Now that it was forced to this step, how could it be bothered with this much?
Hong!
The golden lion suddenly erupted, overflowing with ferocity, power intimidating, golden fur all standing on end, shocking even some great cultivators. This was a rare fighting ability in the Self Severing Realm, exceeding other races.
"You were enduring all stupid and cowardly for so long just to erupt at this moment?" What was completely unexpected was that Shi Hao was still so easygoing, not minding this at all.
At this moment, he only raised his palm. It was sparkling like jade, releasing faint golden radiance. The palm hacked down, and then the powerful aura the Fearless Lion produced was directly scattered by him!
Just a single palm, and the golden lion that temporarily broke through into the Self Severing Realm was beaten back to its original form. It coughed out large mouthfuls of blood, body covered in cracks, almost exploding.
"You…" The Fearless Lion was shocked and fearful. This Huang was too strong, strength terrifyingly high. It really already did everything it could, forced to the point where it didn't even hesitate to rise to a higher cultivation realm and launch a surprise attack, yet it still wasn't enough, the forcefully gathered terrifying power still scattered!
Everyone ashore was alarmed, especially the younger generation, long lacking words. They couldn't even mock or ridicule Shi Hao, because they didn't have the face to.
"I will give you a chance, let you try again." Shi Hao calmly said.
"You…" The Fearless Lion was ashamed and furious. It truly never thought that there would be this much of a freak in the same generation, suppressing him to the point where he couldn't even raise his head.
Hou!
A roar sounded, representing its rage. Golden fur moved, golden radiance surging, shaking the heavens. It was forcefully breaking through, temporarily entering the Self Severing Realm again, wishing to attack Shi Hao.
However, when it felt like it was incomparably powerful, able to easily tear Shi Hao apart, in the end, it suffered another serious strike, its powerful might scattered by a single palm from Shi Hao, falling straight back into the abyss.
The enemy gave it a chance, letting it rise to the peak, but it still wasn't his match. This really left it feeling dispirited, feeling terrified!
Just how terrifying of a monster was this? He was actually powerful to this step, looking at an ancient unmatched clan like an ordinary creature, not attaching much importance to it at all.
"Sigh!"
Shi Hao released a light sigh. When he saw the golden lion, he recalled an old friend, that sworn brother when he was young, precisely the Nine-Headed Golden Lion in the lower realm.
Back then, he was still young, doing many absurd things that made one feel laughter and sadness. He left when he was still young, just how many years has it been since he left the lower realm? Right now, he really wanted to go back, missing Stone Village, missing his old friends!
"I won't roast you, nor will I steam you." Shi Hao said. It wasn't mercy, but rather because he had other plans. He wanted to use it to complete the Nine-Headed Golden Lion.
Then, he looked at everyone ashore and said, "We've already wasted quite a bit of time, let's settle things as well."
"With just you alone, yet you still dare boast shamelessly?!" Someone spoke, so angered he laughed, furious from these words.
"It seems like quite a few people have come, seventy percent of the great cultivators who were chasing after me have gathered here. If I get rid of all of you at once, it can also be considered a joyous occasion." Shi Hao said.
"Unbridled!" The silver-robed elder's face fell. Since persuasion didn't work, then there was no point in keeping up any more face. He no longer tried to do useless things.
"Unbridled? Unbridled my ass!" Shi Hao berated back without any trace of politeness.
"You are just a little bastard who still stinks of breastmilk! Even though your talent isn't bad, you are still a bit too immature, yet you still dare boast shamelessly? If it wasn't for you hiding in the Reincarnation Pool, I would have killed you a long time ago!" Someone said coldly, carrying a look of contempt.
"There are many spirits lingering about the Yellow Springs. Everyone, I hope your trip goes smoothly." Shi Hao said in an unhurried manner, actually sending them off here!
"Not good, hurry and retreat!" The silver-robed elder and the others sensed something, their faces immediately falling ashen, all of them scared. They roared out, fleeing towards the distance.

Chapter 1515 - Ruthless
A few people guessed at what Shi Hao wanted to do. They never expected him to actually be this crazy, every strand of hair standing on end, all of them shivering from deep within their bones!
"Run! Don't turn around, just run as far away as you can!" Someone screamed. It wasn't only to remind the people on the stone mountain, it was even more a type of reminder for the cultivators hiding in the distance.
However, would they have enough time? Some people began to panic!
Shi Hao raised his head, actually looking in that ancient beast's direction. He stared straight at it, revealing a strange divine radiance. He was staring at that ancient 'True Dragon'.
On the stone mountain on the other side, there was also a stele, on it carved the words 'Number Two Under Heaven'. A thick chain coiled around it, leading into the sky.
It locked up an ancient beast. Its outer appearance was like an ancient crocodile, on its back a pair of divine wings, dragon horns on its head. Its entire body was covered in silver scales, a soul trembling aura released from its body.
If one stared at it, one would feel as if their souls were breaking apart!
This was a past matchless ancient beast, no one daring to look directly at it, only able to give it a hurried glance before quickly turning around. Otherwise, they would incur a great disaster onto themselves.
Yet now, Shi Hao opened his mouth, actually about to roar here, preparing to use a sound heavenly art to rouse awake this ancient beast!
This was too crazy, exceeding everyone's expectations.
It was because even if he wanted to die, he shouldn't choose to do this. He would die without a complete corpse! Just the revival of this ancient beast would cause the heavens to collapse and the earth to cave in. There were no creatures who could survive unscathed under this type of fluctuation, most of them likely exploding to pieces.
The Self Release Realm great cultivators were horrified even when it was asleep, not daring to face it, let alone when it woke up!
"Huang is a lunatic, he has already gone mad!"
"Does he not want to live anymore? It's not like he is in a desperate situation, why does he want to take us all down with him?!" Someone berated, feeling fear and unwillingness.
This was especially the case for the silver-robed elder, he was already careful enough, previously not ascending the stone mountain, only coming up after confirming that Shi Hao fell to the bottom of the lake. However, in the end, he still ended up getting duped.
In reality, there was a large group who remained careful. Previously, they all stayed far away from this mountain forest region.
It was all because at the crucial moment, news transmitted from the mountaintop that the golden lion grasped everything, Huang was already dead, corpse sinking to the bottom of the lake that they hurried here.
Hou!
Shi Hao immediately released a roar, activating terrifying sound waves to batter the mountains ahead. He didn't truly directly attack, but this was definitely disturbing the ancient beasts' slumber.
"Huang, don't do this! Otherwise, you will die too!" Some people's faces were pale like snow, shouting out loudly, trying to dissuade him from doing this.
It was because persuading Huang was the same as saving themselves.
However, how could he stop now? Blood energy rushed into the heavens, his thick long black hair dancing about, eyes cold. He released a great roar into the world, shaking heaven and earth.
Everyone felt despair. They couldn't stop him at all.
"Hateful… the Fearless Lion, you mislead us, damn it all!" There were some who were furious, full of resentment towards the golden lion, incredibly upset.
It was because in their eyes, the golden lion was too arrogant, thinking that it grasped everything, already ended Huang's life. This was the same as misleading the latter group into ascending the mountain as well.
For those elders who value their lives greatly, always acting carefully, this was the same as being deceived. They were directly led to a path of no return.
Shi Hao's sound waves even carried lightning, operating the Lightning Emperor's symbols, using world shocking thunder to disrupt heaven and earth order, releasing a great exploding sound.
One could see that in the sky, blazing electricity connected streak after streak, falling down, every strand astonishingly thick, the sounds deafening.
This wave of fluctuation was too intense, the noise also too great. It didn't erupt near Shi Hao, but rather from the 'Number Two Under Heaven' monument.
At the same time, he used great divine abilities, interfering with the vital energy there, making the mountains tremble, as if they were going to collapse.
That stele shook and rumbled with noise, but there was no way it would fall. It released strange mysterious symbols, the metal chains wrapped around its surface releasing hualala noises, the sounds resounding and ear-splitting. The creatures who were fleeing were terrified to the point where their souls trembled, fine hairs all standing on end.
They were now completely in despair. This type of situation was already completely impossible to escape from. The chains swayed, situation of disaster impossible to break through. Everything could only head towards a bitter end!
"Ah… I don't want to die here!" The group of youngsters had long become frightened, couldn't help but scream in fear.
"This is too hateful!" A few great cultivators also powerlessly lamented. It was because they already saw that the ancient beast was disturbed, that it was reviving.
In that place, chaotic energy spread. The ancient beast moved its body, its form massive, covering heaven and earth. The thick eyelid was like a wall, right now gradually moving.
In that instant, an unmatched aura engulfed the heavens above and earth below, freezing everyone's souls, severing their connection with their bodies.
This was just the beginning of the revival, yet quite a few experts couldn't hold on anymore.
Ah…
A few young experts cried out miserably, their bodies breaking to pieces, crushed by a matchless domineering force.
Pu!
One of them coughed out blood, chunks of internal organs flying out. His body immediately exploded under the pressure.
Bo!
There was another person whose frontal bone exploded, the space between his brows dripping with blood. When the primordial spirit struggled out, it directly turned into large amounts of multicolored light, scattering in midair like a rain of light.
This was a situation of absolute despair, there was no way of resisting it!
"Run!" A few great figures roared.
'It was because if the beginning was already like this, how terrifying would it become when the ancient beast opened its eyes?
Only, they also understood that there was likely not a single chance of living left today. With the awakening of this beast, the aura would instantly travel an endless amount of distance away, no distance unreachable!
Meanwhile, in this place, they didn't have any way of ripping apart the heavens, unable to travel through, because the most powerful natural laws were protecting this place. The void gates could not be broken through.
"Golden lion, you've deceived us!" in the end, there were great cultivators who cried out unwillingly. This was a type of extremely complicated resentful will.
The original opponent was Huang, that hateful youngster, but now, in some people's eyes, the one who caused all of this was actually the golden lion.
Many people acted carefully before, not ascending the mountain. It was only because the lion oversaw that place, claiming to be in control over everything, already forcing Huang to death that they came.
"Who can be blamed? We can only blame ourselves!"
"Huang is mad!" Of course, most of them gritted their teeth, hating Shi Hao bitterly, wishing to skin him alive. He actually cared this little about his own life.
"He didn't go crazy, he has a way to continue living!" At this time, someone suddenly said.
These people returned the way they came from, resisting the great pressure. There was a chance of dying at any time.
The silver-robed elder was included among them. This was a group of powerful individuals, the leaders of this expedition, all of their strength astonishing, not a single one of them lower than the mid-stage of Self Release Realm.
Hong!
In the surroundings, the void split apart. Black spatial gates took form one after another, but they were even more so like black heavenly blades, towering between heaven and earth!
It was because that True Dragon was reviving!
The great cultivators couldn't open up spatial gates, but this ancient True Dragon was an absolutely tyrannical existence, able to easily do so. This wasn't a deliberate action but rather the result of strands of aura released after it revived, already enough to crush heaven and earth.
At this moment, it was as if there wasn't much that could stop it. This world, this great universe couldn't hold its true body.
Pu!
This type of black energy fluctuation was too intense. In that instant, ninety percent of the young cultivators were wiped out. They exploded, bodies and souls extinguished, nothing left behind.
Only some young cultivators who were at the limits of the horizon, always staying far away, were able to immediately escape, which was why they were fortunate enough to survive. However, they still received heavy injuries.
As for the older generation figures, some of the ones who were closer also died!
"Ancient domineering matchless dragon race senior, please take action, kill this group of vicious individuals!" This was Shi Hao's final roar. He then dragged the golden lion back to the bottom of the lake with him.
It was because he knew those people's conclusions even without seeing it himself.
Of course, sinking to the bottom of the lake was also for the sake of survival. If he was even a moment too late, he would still die, definitely be crushed into nothing by the pressure, body and soul disappearing.
The golden lion's face carried a regretful expression. Its body was rigid, golden pupils full of shock and fear. It was now completely rigid, dragged like a piece of dead wood.
It never would have expected this type of conclusion. Those who participated were destined to be completely wiped out, not a single one of them surviving!
In its eyes, Huang really was too vicious!
Moreover, it really had to blame itself. If not for it being overly confident, believing Huang to have died and sunk to the lake bottom, why would the later group of individuals have ascended the mountain, get close?
From a certain perspective, it was the one murderer, harming that group of great cultivators to death!
"Huang, I am going to stake it all against you!" The golden lion roared furiously, wishing to taking Shi Hao down with it.
"You want to die? It won't be that easily! Just stay off to the side for now!" Shi Hao didn't care much at all. A palm descended, breaking all of the bones in its body. Even someone as powerful as the golden lion actually couldn't do anything, the difference extremely great.
"What do you want to do?" The golden lion's golden pupils revealed cold radiance.
"Use you as a mount, then in the future, ride you on the battlefield to fight against the foreign side!" Shi Hao said ruthlessly.
This wasn't mercy, nor was it because he really wanted to take it as a mount, but rather that he wanted to enslave it. He was going to leave it alive to use it, intimidate the other side like this.
It was because everyone knew that the golden lion bloodline was originally a creature from the Nine Heavens Ten Earths, later on defecting, inviting a great army inside, attacking their own side's people instead.
Now, Shi Hao's treatment was punishing an individual as an example to others. If other saw him ride it onto the battlefield, take it as a mount, the effects would be tremendous, displaying great intimidation, producing an uproar!
Putong!
Putong!
...
Inside the lake, water dripping sounds rang out again and again. Waves splashed out, several dozen individuals threw themselves in.
It was precisely the most powerful group of great cultivators. At the most crucial moment, they turned around, running back here, jumping into the lake while disregarding everything, wishing to use this to escape disaster.
"Heh heh, they came! A group of dumplings came into the pot. It is time for me to harvest them!" Shi Hao laughed, only, his smile was a bit cold.
Moreover, outside, heaven and earth lost color, already about to collapse, everything about to change!

Chapter 1516 - World Eradicating Roar
Dumplings? The golden lion heard it perfectly clearly. Even though it was seriously injured, suffering severe injuries, it was still extremely sensitive. It began to shiver all over!
It understood clearly that the great cultivators who fell into the lake might be in even more grief, actually treated as a pile of dumplings!
In the outside world, the world was in chaos. The black cracks were concentrated like thousands to over tens of thousands of black heavenly blades, erasing all creatures from this world, none of them able to escape.
Right when this group of great cultivators threw themselves into the Reincarnation Pool, the world collapsed, mountains and rivers losing color. Heaven and earth immediately capsized, everything becoming different.
That terrifying powerful individual whose might left all shaken during the True Dragons' competition for supremacy now revived. The iron chains were releasing noise, shaking up the entire Heavenly Beast Mountain Forest.
In the mountains, creatures were wiped out. As its eyelid moved, all those who didn't throw themselves into the lake, all the cultivators who were currently running for their lives exploded to pieces.
As for further out, the group of people who escaped first, their bodies also split open, their injuries serious to the point of almost dying.
In the mountains, the ancient beast's aura was too terrifying. It was too powerful, nothing it couldn't destroy, there was no way to withstand it at all.
The creatures who were thrown into the lake were quite daring, their strength outstanding. However, their ends were still destined to be extremely miserable.
Meanwhile, the group of people who ran the furthest were also the seniors with the most profound cultivation levels, their natures comparatively more reserved.
These two groups of people were both great cultivators, the most powerful individuals among the pursuers.
Right now, the cultivators sandwiched between the two groups were the most miserable. Their strength weren't high or low, in the most danger. All of their faces were pale, cracks covering their bodies.
Huala!
In the mountains, the metal chain clanking sounds rang out extremely far into the distance, intimidating one down to their soul, making them even more fearful.
It was because right now, the sounds of metal chains moving about were like the cries of hell, inviting them to leave this world. Every one of them trembled endlessly.
This wasn't an intimidation, but rather really wishing to take their lives.
Hong!
A heaven shocking noise was released. Everyone understood that the dragon completely revived. The last trace of hope in their minds was now completely shattered.
On the mountain, the chains were perfectly taut, the ancient beast with a rusted immortal spear penetrating its skull opened its eyes. In that instant, primal chaos submerged heaven and earth, immortal dao radiance engulfing the heavens above and earth below!
This type of power was too great. It was just a normal revival, yet it already made the other creatures of this world unable to hold on, all of them about to explode!
This was completely different from when they encountered it while asleep. The aura that was naturally released from it was too berserk, simply about to erase the world.
The ones who produced the most direct reaction were the numerous cultivators who escaped into Heavenly Beast Forest. Right now, they exploded one after another, blood splashing into the heavens.
"Ah, no!"
These were the cries of the experts, roaring angrily, carrying unwillingness. However, this was all they could do, as they broke apart immediately afterwards.
Those who were fortunate enough to survive earlier, the youngsters who didn't die now couldn't even release a cry, breaking apart inch by inch just like that, turning into a bloody paste, and then vanishing like smoke into thin air.
The younger individuals were completely wiped out!
This wasn't of the same magnitude of power at all! The ancient beasts revived, the aura naturally swirling around them already crushing heaven and earth, destroying large numbers of cultivators.
"No, give me a chance…" Someone shouted, his face distorting, powerlessly reaching out an arm, wishing to grab outwards. However, a wave of aura rushed over, and then he was destroyed inch by inch, disintegrating into blood!
"How could it be this strong? I already rushed out of that region, the heavens itself is wishing for my death!" A great cultivator roared, because it truly was unwilling. Its escape techniques were extremely powerful, after escaping that region, it rushed into the distant ancient forest depths, but it was still penetrated by a streak of light, crushing his bones and blasting apart his flesh, splattering everywhere.
This was a streak of light released after the ancient beast opened its eyes. It was just a normal gaze, yet it actually carried primitive battle intent, which was why he was killed.
Without a doubt, the ancient beast experienced an unimaginably terrifying great battle back then, locked here. Even after sleeping for endless years, it still carried the killing intent from back then. This was why when its eyes opened, the great cultivator who fled the furthest immediately died.
This was a tragic result. As the ancient beast revived, all of the fleeing cultivators were utterly terrified, feeling as if there was no hope!
Hong!
An aura surged, accompanied by chaotic energy. It spread for who knew how many tens of thousands of li, engulfing all directions, swaying the stellar streams. Everything in the mortal world looked just that insignificant.
Pu pu pu...
Between the Reincarnation Pool and the great cultivators who fled into the distance, the lives of other individuals left in a strange situation were destined to fade.
Their eyes froze in that instant, many of them swept through by those waves. In that terrifying scene, they broke apart one after another, their primordial spirits exploding.
One could see that a large amount of bloody rain descended from above the mountain forest, dyeing the heavens red.
It was clear that the cultivators who came to this region were far greater in number than what Shi Hao imagined. At this time, the casualty count was equivalent to a merciless demonic voice taking inventory!
In that instant, as the ancient creature's eyes opened, it was unknown for just how many tens of thousands of li of cultivators exploded to bits and pieces, bodies and spirits erased. There wasn't a bit of suspense.
Blood dyed Heavenly Beast Forest!
The bloody traces of powerful creatures were everywhere in this region. A rain of blood poured down, the mountain region becoming completely scarlet red!
Previously, no one expected such a cruel result. An ancient beast revived, leading to the deaths of numerous outstanding heroes, all of them exploding one after another. Just how terrifying of a result was this?
Now, even the cultivators who escaped the furthest were frightened until they were trembling. They were seriously injured, in critical condition, clearly unable to hold on much longer.
This was an extremely powerful group of cultivators, all of them in the Self Release Realm. The reason why they were able to run far enough away was one, because they didn't climb the mountain, still far enough away, and two, because their own cultivations really were extraordinary.
Despite this being the case, even after traveling who knew how many tens of thousands of li, they still couldn't release a breath of relief. There was still an endless pressure weighing down on them!
Their bodies were cracking, blood pouring out. Their skulls were even more so slowly breaking apart, primordial spirits as if hacked by heavenly blades, cut into several parts, about to fall apart.
"No!"
Eventually, the group of people who escaped the furthest, the most powerful group of individuals released a great roar, their lives about to end.
Pu!
That instant still came. There were people who exploded. The mountains and rivers trembled, flesh and blood flying everywhere, a rain of blood contaminating this region, created a ruined scene below.
Hong!
There were some great rivers that evaporated.
Wenglong!
There were some mountain ranges that turned to ashes!
When the sky-covering essence blood fell, this place became a demonic earth, many regions destroyed.
It was because this group of cultivators were too powerful, their essence blood containing unimaginable power.
However, even a group of people this powerful was still killed, falling one after another, all because that ancient beast woke up. The fluctuations it released were enough to wipe out this group of great cultivators!
Soon afterwards, the so-called essence blood burned, turning into essence energy, disappearing into thin air.
It was extremely terrifying. These great cultivators didn't leave anything behind after their deaths, truly disappearing like scattered ashes, dispersed smoke.
This type of miserable scene left every person deeply shaken. Only a few individuals at the Self Release Realm managed to escape to the outer regions, escaping from disaster.
They felt a wave of powerlessness. When faced with this type of cultivator, forget about resisting, it was completely impossible to even imagine how powerful it was, as if they were merely ants gazing at the heavenly sun!
They were like insects facing an azure drake, the difference between the two sides like a heavenly moat!
That ancient beast didn't take action. Just the fluctuations it released were already like this, so if it fought, then what kind of scene would it be like?
With the cultivation realms of those who entered Heavenly Beast Forest, they couldn't imagine just how magnificent this ancient beast's power was when it fought decisively in the past.
Pu!
Pu!
...
The group that ran the furthest away, the great cultivators who barely escaped with their lives, also began to explode one after another. Even the few top level individuals who survived lost a lot of blood, falling one after the other.
In the end, only one or two were left!
"I am unwilling! How could it be like this?!" The ones who were left were covered in cracks, roaring out there.
At the same time, in Heavenly Beast Forest's surroundings, in even further mountain ranges, long roars sounded. There were extraordinary figures who came as reinforcements.
"What happened? Why are there these types of warnings?" In the mountain range, someone asked.
It was because the experts at the border of Heavenly Beast Forest saw the bloody light that surged in the skies one after another, warnings released through sacrificing one's own life.
Of course, there were only a few who succeeded, the others long exploding, unable to accomplish this type of thing.
"There is an ancient beast that revived, and we have pretty much all been wiped out!" The last few individuals who escaped roared, tears of blood streaming down their faces.
"Do not worry, we have come!"
They actually dared to approach this place.
"We ask for the undying's blood!"
"Undo the seal, write an unmatched law decree!"
There were some people who shouted in the distant mountain range, undoing a seal. They transferred resplendent blood from within a mysterious ancient container into a shining magical decree. Blinding light immediately surged here, tearing apart the sky dome.
Hou!
Then, in the depths of Heavenly Beast Forest, a great roar sounded. Immediately afterwards, nothing existed any longer, heaven and earth collapsing!
The so-called unmatched magical decree immediately collapsed. The so-called undying blood quickly burned, the void even turning a dark red color, heaven and earth all contaminated by blood.
Honglong!
The heavens fell and earth collapsed here, all life withered away, the mountains and rivers all collapsing.
As for the last few people who escaped, as well as the powerful cultivators who were confident they could provide aid, they all broke apart, becoming bloody mist, and then became scattered ashes.
The power of a single roar from the ancient beast cleared the forest, collapsed the heavenly dome. At the same time, great stars could be seen falling one after another, and then exploding apart.
Primal chaos surged, submerging this mountain range, covering this part of Heavenly Beast Forest!
This was unmatched divine might. Under this roar, it was as if the world was being purged, everything fading from existence.

Chapter 1517 - All of You Are Too Weak
Under a single roar, heaven and earth capsized, the world collapsed!
This ancient beast revived, releasing a beast roar. It was different from the past, this time, the sound wave really was too terrifying, completely purging Heavenly Beast Forest!
The area in front of the mountain looked like it had been plowed. Moreover, this wasn't just a normal type of ravine, but rather a complete destruction of the mountain region. The Heavenly Beast Forest in front stretched for who knew how many tens of thousands of li, but it was completely obliterated.
The plant life withered, turned into ashes, tens of thousands of zhang tall mountains became sand. After the wave passed, they were swept away just like smoke.
The originally luxuriant ancient forest was now a desolate land, the rich greenery no longer existing.
The hundred thousand great mountains all collapsed, not a single one remaining, the surface completely bare.
If anyone came here and saw this scene, they wouldn't think that ancient trees previously towered into the heavens, this land lush with greenery, that it was a boundless ancient forest.
On the ground, great cracks extended one after another, pitch-black and incomparably thick, their width of all varying sizes, some reaching several dozen zhang. They were everywhere, terrifying beyond compare.
This was the case for millions of li. This place which used to be known as a boundless ancient forest, in this direction, was completely destroyed.
Over half of the ancient land became ruined earth.
This wasn't the most terrifying part. Wherever the sound waves passed, in that direction, the earth caved in, becoming depressions, rift valleys. One could clearly see a scarlet red expanse.
Magma surged, in the end filling those deep valleys and earth pits, becoming red seas!
A sea of lava appeared, incomparably blazing hot, changing Heavenly Beast Forest greatly. It was now entirely different, impossible to recognize from its past.
Moreover, in the sky, there were stars that fell. They fell into the red magma, stirring up heaven overflowing waves that reached into the skies!
This type of scene was completely like the end of the world. All life ended, vitality in this world cut short.
Moreover, as primal chaos mist spread, surrounding this region, when the stars fell, stirring up heaven reaching red light, it began to appear a bit hazy and indistinct.
This made things seem even more terrifying!
"What happened?" Outside Heavenly Beast Forest, cries of alarm sounded.
There was a great army overlooking this region. They could sense intense energy fluctuations, and then they saw falling stars move through the sky. The mountain forest ahead was filled with a blazing red light!
"This is like the end of the world! Was this done by that legendary ancient beast?" A cultivator at the consummate level of Self Release Realm stood on a large boulder, watching this scene with shock.
There was still more than ten thousand li of forest left that didn't become scorched earth, could be said to be a final 'isolated zone' left behind.
However, they could sense that beast roar. It was just too alarming, making their souls unsteady. Many people's cultivations almost dropped a great realm.
"If not for Heavenly Beast Forest having an ancient immortal formation protecting it, supporting this forest, perhaps even we would be in danger!" Someone said.
The final area of isolation was precisely the area where that ancient great formation was sturdiest. If this area collapsed, then the vast outside world would most likely suffer a great disaster.
On the peak of the stone mountain, Reincarnation Pool.
Not long ago, waves reached into the heavens, divine liquid surging, shining resplendently. Huge waves overflowed, scattering into the mountain region.
Right now, all of the liquid flowed from the mountain region in reverse, returning to the ancient pool.
The lake wasn't calm. Even though the beast roar ended, it still continued to surge.
At the lake bottom, Shi Hao was shocked. He long thought of this possibility, but he was still greatly shaken.
As for the golden lion, it even more so trembled in fear. This wasn't only a repressed feeling from a spiritual level, the main reason was that there really was a wave of divine might pressing down that couldn't be withstood.
The golden lion had previously exploded to pieces at the bottom of the lake. However, it received the ancient monk's inheritance, so after it experienced the divine liquid's baptism here, acquiring its divinity, it made it through alive.
As for Shi Hao, he really was playing with fire and getting burnt!
Even though he hid at the lake bottom, his body still almost exploded. That power was too berserk. When the ancient beast roared, the power was matchless and tyrannical, just too powerful.
In that instant, he thought he was finished.
However, what he anticipated finally happened, protecting the lake bottom.
This was the ancient monk bloodline's burial land, the possessions of senior monks emptied here generation after generation, even more so having immortal monk skeletons and other things. They were all buried here, forming an unimaginable land of reincarnation!
At the most crucial point, many dried-up bones at the lake bottom moved, quickly piecing together, turning into a human skeleton again. It sat there, chanting scriptures.
They protected the lake bottom. When the destructive energy rushed over, under the lead of the golden skeleton, a group of ancient monk bones shone, stopping the world destroying aura, protecting this place.
Otherwise, Shi Hao's body and spirit would definitely be wiped out.
This was something that he expected, but it really was beyond dangerous.
He knew a long time ago that this place was extraordinary, because the meaning of the words Reincarnation Pool was too great, there was no way it would randomly have this type of name.
This was especially the case for the ancient monk bloodline, previously producing an immortal king, how could it be ordinary? Who knows, it might precisely be that monk king's methods that were used here.
At the same time, Shi Hao saw that there were two monuments in the stone mountain region, on one of them engraved the words 'Number Two Under Heaven', the other had the words 'Reincarnation Pool'.
He felt that the two definitely had some type of connection. Perhaps the reason why the ancient beast was locked up here was because of the ancient monks.
Perhaps it was to help it treat its injuries, perhaps it really was to imprison it!
From this perspective, the Reincarnation Pool shouldn't be weaker than Number Two Under Heaven.
That was why Shi Hao went for the gamble!
If he didn't go for this gamble, he would forever be trapped within the Reincarnation Pool, and an unending stream of foreign experts would appear, in the end, there would be no way of dealing with him, so he might as well take the initiative to attack.
This time, he won the bet. It could be said that the other side suffered disastrous losses in one go, unknown just how many experts died.
At the very least, from what he knew, there were at least seventy to eighty great cultivators who died, and there were those he didn't notice along with those who were hiding in the forest, so it was likely even more.
"Gu Clan and Emperor Clan's young great one never ascended the stone mountain, I wonder if they were still in this region. Did they die?" Shi Hao said to himself.
At his side, the golden lion was stupefied. Before, it was shivering in fear, now, it was as quiet as a dead tree. This was a tremendous change of mental state, from a huge drop in expectations, to dejectedness, even a feeling of every hope turning to dust.
The things it experienced today made its expression extremely complicated, creating a huge shadow over it, one that would be impossible to get rid of its entire life.
"I am a sinner!" The golden lion roared, blaming itself, inwardly full of remorse.
When Shi Hao heard this, he immediately glared over. He raised his hand, directly slapping its face, loud and clear, sending lake water flying.
"You dare?!" The golden lion glared, the hair on its mane thick, extremely long, about to reach the lion's claws, making it look extremely ferocious.
Right now, it suddenly suffered a slap to the face, immediately making it absent-minded, forgetting its previous status as a captive. Meanwhile, in the past, who dared touch it? It was a true Lion King.
"Your race betrayed the Nine Heavens, killed so many of our ancient people, yet you didn't feel any guilt. Now that I killed some indiscriminate murderers, you instead feel grieved?!" Shi Hao's expression became colder and colder.
"The one I am hitting is you, and it isn't finished yet!" Shi Hao gave it another slap, the noise even louder, striking the lion until it directly spun in place, planting straight into the ground.
Peng!
Moreover, Shi Hao's foot stepped down, making even its head split open, blood dripping out, mixing together with the lake water that swept over.
"After killing so many of the ancient people, you all didn't feel any remorse, yet now that a few bastards died, you actually feel grief! I'm going to beat the shit out of you!" Shi Hao continuously stepped on it.
The pitiful golden lion almost broke apart again.
Shi Hao looked up. There was some light, as well as some broken limbs and bodies. He didn't immediately go up, instead waiting, scared that the ancient beast would roar again.
He noticed that after the ancient beast was woken up, the sound waves it released exceeded that of a few days ago. It was too ferocious. A single bit of carelessness and he would be bringing a great disaster onto himself.
The main reason was because he felt like that ancient True Dragon's consciousness wasn't clear, possibly still in a muddle-headed state. Otherwise, it wouldn't roar out like this.
While under this type of situation, it was extremely dangerous!
If the ancient beast's mind was still clear, remembering that it is a member of the Nine Heavens Ten Earths, it would come help him. This was what Shi Hao thought, which was why right now, he couldn't hope for the other side to consciously help him.
"Say, you all are really too weak. We just began, yet more than half of you are done for. Come on, all of you better persist on for me!" Shi Hao raised his head, shouting upwards.
These were some ruined bodies, as well as some lumps of light after primordial spirits broke apart. They all shook intensely, truly angered badly. Things were already like this, yet that brat was still mocking them like this. It really was shameful and hateful!
Not long ago, when they first fell into the lake, Shi Hao already rushed up, preparing to capture and slaughter them. However, when that special True Dragon roared out, the power was far greater than he imagined, so he had no choice but to rush back to the lake bottom to avoid it.
Those Self Release Realm cultivators were originally high and mighty, but things completely changed when they entered the lake. There were some who broke apart on the spot, their flesh turning into essence energy, divine force, becoming a part of the lake water, even their bones becoming multicolored light and completely dissolving. This group of people met violent deaths!
Over half of them died just like that!
It was because this was the Reincarnation Pool. It was extremely terrifying, no matter how powerful one was, how profound their cultivation levels, they would all be suppressed here.
The power here would always crush you with absolute advantage. What it tested was the potential within one's body, suppressing with power greater than your cultivation level.
That was why some people immediately had their bodies and spirits wiped out.
However, it had to be said that those who could cultivate to the Self Release Realm were all extraordinary, some of them even extremely outstanding heroes. This was why there were some who withstood the corrosion, not dying.
Only, the ones who survived also paid a great price, many of them having their body parts melted away, now in incredibly terrible states. There were some who only had a head left.
The cultivators who were even more miserable had their flesh completely dissolved, only having a primordial spirit struggling about, but even then, they almost couldn't hold on, about to turn into a rain of light.
Only a few were still in relatively okay conditions, bitterly struggling. As time went on, they would undoubtedly die.
"You all are too lacking, all of you ridiculously weak!" Shi Hao stood there, looking at them with disdain, mocking them, "Not long ago, weren't you all acting extremely viciously, chasing after me? Why are you all like sick chickens now? All of you are weak like rubbish!"
The people above were so angered their chests felt tight, unable to restrain their rage. This little bastard really knew how to take advantage of the situation, mocking and ridiculing them. It really was infuriating.
Did they have any strength to retaliate? They didn't!
It was hard for them to even live in this lake, let alone fight.
"It's not safe for you guys up there, if that existence roars again, all of you will explode. It's better if you all come down." Shi Hao enthusiastically called out.
Moreover, he put his words into action, already taking action, forcefully grabbing at those people.
Pu!
These creatures whose bodies were in terrible condition directly broke to pieces along the way, turning into multicolored light, becoming divine liquid, one with the lake water.
Shi Hao continued to look upwards, saying, "Yi, you were originally a chicken? There's a big snake there, wu, I see a goat there. They are all delicious! When cultivated to this level, they are all definitely high quality ingredients, just too hard to find. I haven't enjoyed Self Release Realm meat in this life yet!" Shi Hao pointed at them one after another, evaluating them. In the end, he directly encouraged them, saying, "All of you have to hold on, only by persisting through is there glory! If you all want to live, then you have to endure, you all must not be dissolved by this place! In the future, I'll set up a pigpen to raise you all!"
"@#$%..." The foreign experts who were still alive were all angered to the point where their livers were in pain, smoke spouting through their seven orifices. However, they just couldn't do anything to Shi Hao.
"En, wait a minute!" Suddenly, Shi Hao put away his smile, his face falling. He stared at a ruined body and said, "The shameful clans also came? There's a debt I have to settle with you all!"
He already recognized that they were the creatures from Imperial Pass, not long ago pretending to rescue him, but they actually bore great malice.

Chapter 1518 - All Dead
"Old thing, you really are quite tenacious, not dying even now!" Shi Hao's eyes released cold light. He rushed over, grabbing that ruined body with a single motion.
It had to be said that this expert was too miserable. He long lacked the appearance of a human, limbs completely broken, skull fractured, everything below his abdomen long disappeared without a trace.
Now, only a small part of his torso remained. This scene was extremely pitiful.
Not long ago, Shi Hao was escorted onto a war chariot by this group of people, and then he seized the opportunity to kill a Self Release Realm cultivator. Later on, their plans were exposed, this group of people becoming hostile, several great cultivators immediately emerging to chase after him.
These people had always been chasing behind, colluding with the foreign cultivators, walking with them. They didn't feel the slightest bit of mental burden, clearly long completely defecting to the other side.
In the end, these people were similarly unlucky. Shi Hao startled that ancient dragon, triggering a disaster. The younger generation who rushed over were completely wiped out, the older generation rushing into the lake, but immediately suffered greatly.
"What a waste of this war chariot!" After Shi Hao observed carefully, he noticed a tattered war chariot at that person's side, releasing hazy light. If not for this, this person would have long died.
Despite this being the case, this person's body was still deformed. That war chariot was heavily corroded by the lake water, also definitely going to break apart, its divinity going to completely flow out.
In Shi Hao's opinion, the people who came from this clan were quite strong, but they couldn't compare to those foreign elders. Even the foreign great cultivators were in complete disorder, ninety percent of them dying, so this person shouldn't have been able to live. It was all because of that war chariot.
"Just speak, what clan are you from?" Shi Hao asked. This was what he paid the most importance to. After being schemed against, he began to pay especially great attention to them.
Even though he had his suspicions, he still had to verify them.
"You…" This elder's strength was extremely great, but right now, he was unbearably weak, about to fall apart at any time.
"Don't worry, if you behave and listen, I will protect you, won't let you die by the lakeside." Shi Hao smiled.
Even though he was seriously injured, body and soul about to be wiped out, this elder still shivered inwardly, a layer of goosebumps emerging. This damned Huang, he actually dared to mock and scare him.
This was but someone from the younger generation. In his eyes, he was still a brat, chased by them like a stray dog not long ago, running everywhere. However, in the end, he climbed all over him, insulting him like this.
"Youngster, do not cross the line!" He released a low roar.
"Still putting on airs, do you want to be tortured?" Shi Hao grabbed him by the neck. Unfortunately, his precious clothes had suffered severe damage, immediately ripped apart.
Peng!
Shi Hao dragged the golden lion over, immediately using it like a club, striking towards the elder.
With a pu sound, half the elder's body disappeared, smashed to pieces, only a head left behind. He was now in an even worse state.
This strike created two muffled groans, one naturally came from the elder, absolutely furious. He was already dying, yet now, even his torso was lost, only a head left, there would definitely be no good end for him.
The other was, of course, the golden lion. It really wanted to crazy, humiliated and angered to the extreme.
It was because just now, Shi Hao was just too voluntary, grabbing the golden lion from the side, what was he treating it as? A wooden club, a tool, an insignificant weed?
He really was doing whatever he wanted, angering the golden lion until his entire body was shaking.
"Just speak, what clan did you come from? You know that I don't have that much patience, especially after being chased by you guys for so long, my mood is definitely not that good. If you don't speak, you should know your end will be extremely terrible." Shi Hao said.
"The clans that you offended, the ones who cannot coexist with you, do you really not know yourself?" This head said hatefully.
When he heard these words, Shi Hao's pupils contracted. He felt like the situation became a bit complicated!
Was it really the Wang Family, or Jin Family? These two long life families were standing against him, they were his enemies.
However, why did the elder speak of it so directly?
Or was it to say that this was to mislead him? If there were other long life families that joined in, then the situation was even more complicated, even more terrifying.
Shi Hao didn't say anything, taking action with lightning speed. He grabbed that head, wishing to search his sea of consciousness, understand the truth!
If it was before, he definitely couldn't do this. This was a Self Release Realm great cultivator, his primordial spirit force blazing like a sun, able to burn down cultivators of lower levels.
However now, Shi Hao's cultivation improved greatly, moreover, the other side's strength sharply declined, already not much left. Now, Shi Hao easily accomplished what he wanted to.
"No!" The elder resisted, doing everything he could to struggle.
Soon afterwards, Shi Hao backed up, his expression overcast, leaving like a shadow, returning to the lake bottom.
Peng!
The elder's head exploded, the damage spreading to the surrounding people. Even though there was lake water in the way, there were still three people who also died with him while carrying unwillingness and resentment.
"There is a terrifying imprint in his head that detonates upon contact. It is definitely the work of a long life family!" Shi Hao's expression was ugly.
Even a Self Release Realm great cultivator had this type of imprint engraved, when needed, he would be directly sacrificed. Apart from a few long life families, who else had this type of resolution?
On the surface, the group of great cultivators became quiet, feeling greatly alarmed inside. It was because even a Self Release Realm expert had this type of mentality, this left them extremely humiliated and angry.
"En, the surface has calmed down?" Shi Hao muttered. What he was talking about was naturally the ancient True Dragon in the outside world.
Chi!
At the same time, someone also moved, rushing out from the lake, wishing to borrow this chance to escape.
Inside the lake, their bodies were breaking down with each passing second, suffering tremendous damage. If not because they wanted to live, why would they throw themselves into this lake?
They believed that the other cultivators outside should have all died. Even though they were in miserable states, they were still alive in the end.
Hua!
Someone jumped out from the water surface, moving his damaged body, wishing to completely escape. His injuries right now were too serious, possibly dying at any time. This wasn't the time to settle things with Huang.
Shi Hao revealed a cold smile. When he mentioned the outside world, muttering like that, it was precisely because he wanted someone to lead the way.
Of course, even though they understood his intentions, those people still had no choice but to play along. It was because right now, Huang was just like a horned fiend. If they didn't move, they would most likely be the next on the chopping board.
Pu!
The one who jumped out from the lake surface wasn't crushed by that ancient beast's aura, but had his head hacked through by Shi Hao's sword energy, his ruined body hacked into two, primordial spirit destroyed!
"Run!"
When this word was shouted, the surviving great cultivators felt great shame. When confronted by a twenty something year old brat, they actually had to flee in sorry states!
"Don't go, my chicken, my sheep, my duck, my cow, all of you, don't run!" Shi Hao shouted behind them. Moreover, he already took action.
Up ahead, those great cultivators were seething with anger, erupting with rage, so angry the roots of their teeth were aching.
Pu!
Shi Hao didn't show any mercy. A wave of brilliant sword energy rushed out, slicing one across the waist. Then, another cut was added, piercing the skull, killing the primordial spirit.
Then, another streak of lightning radiance was released, striking a great cultivator whose four limbs were all crippled, long weakened back down. His body was charred black, primordial spirit drying up and scattering, losing his life.
Xiu!
Shi Hao rushed up like a divine arrow that left a bowstring, quickly arriving at the lake surface. Every pore in his body shone, tens of thousands of strands of divine radiance erupted. He shone like a blazing resplendent sun, blossoming here!
Under pu pu sounds, accompanied by blood radiance, the divine light here was just too penetrating. The remaining individuals were all nailed in place, bodies pierced through. Their blood immediately spilled everywhere!
In that instant, all of them died.
There was no suspense at all!
Of the few dozen cultivators who jumped into the lake, in the end, not a single one survived, all of them dying.
This included the silver-robed elder whose strength was extremely great, the one belonging to an Emperor Clan branch family. When he fell into the lake again, his damaged body completely dissolved.
At the same time, Shi Hao opened his Heavenly Eyes, seeing the scene on the other side of the mountain. That dragon closed its eyes, all of the essence energy currently rushing in that direction.
Shi Hao was shaken, because he saw the distant scene. A larger half of Heavenly Beast Forest was destroyed? The greenery disappeared, red magma surged!
Right now, red bloody mist, green life aura, all of it rose from the ruined mountain region, entering that ancient beast's body, becoming essence energy for it to absorb.
Shi Hao quickly rushed into the lake, because he felt like if he stayed here a bit longer, even he would become a wave of essence energy, be sucked into the ancient beast's body.
"Yi?"
Suddenly, the lake water overflowed, the noise in the outside world great, as if a tide was surging. Shi Hao was extremely shocked. He arrived at the lake surface again to look around.
"This is…"
The ancient beast shone, its entire body releasing essence energy, engulfing everything in front of it. Under Shi Hao's shocked gaze, the mountain region's magma withdrew, giant mountains rumbled, rising from the ground. Then, those areas surged with vitality, plants quickly growing.
This type of scene was too shocking. Life returned to how it was before, quickly growing, reappearing.
This wasn't like destruction, the heavens collapsed and earth split apart, but Shi Hao was even more shaken. His body was nurtured by a wave of life force, obtaining tremendous benefits.
The half of Heavenly Beast Forest that was destroyed quickly recovered. It was rich with greenery once more, life force endless!
"The cycle of destruction and life…" Shi Hao was completely fascinated, watching quietly. His entire body shone, comprehension deepening.

Chapter 1519 - Fighting Heaven's Will
He involuntarily entered the Self Severing realm, moreover was on the verge of fully consolidating it.
Originally, Shi Hao was waiting for a good time to advance into this realm, because he could have advanced at anytime. This was especially since after he received the Ancient Monk's Eighteen Slaps, he had long been thoroughly sharpened.
His foundation had already been tempered, as long as he wanted, he could immediately achieve the result of a higher cultivation realm.
The reason he hesitated before was out of worry that he might gain a moment of enlightenment along the way, and then be disturbed, ruining his opportunity.
Now, Shi Hao forgot himself, lacking all emotions of joy or worry. The scenes of life and destruction played before his eyes, there was reincarnation, everything revolving between life and death. It was as if there was a sea of life and death before his eyes, gleaming reflections clear and brilliant.
Severing the self, was it a removal of one's shackles, or one's own notions and understanding? In that instant, Shi Hao became perplexed, but soon afterwards, he understood. As expected, he entered a dao comprehension state!
That ancient True Dragon surged with essence energy at this time, making the land of destruction surge with radiance once more. All of the plants instantly revived, great mountains emerging from the ground, this really left him too moved.
New life from the ruins of destruction, lofty peaks from the abyss, this type of transformation, to flourish from death, reverse everything between life and death, it was a nurturing of the most basic things of this world, yet it was one of the most powerful profound mysteries.
Shi Hao comprehended the dao. Was this an undoing of the flesh's shackles, or was it the shackles of his mind, perhaps it was the fixed notions within his mind? It was hard to say at this moment, it was extremely complicated.
In the lake, the golden lion stared at Shi Hao, eyes flourishing with vicious radiance, about to take action. However, it held back.
It was because there really was a great shadow over its mind. Ever since it encountered Shi Hao, nothing went well, each time suffering miserably. It really feared that Shi Hao was just testing it right now.
That was why it didn't act recklessly!
"He isn't playing around, really gaining insights! No, I have to take action, end his opportunity with a single strike, have him fall from heaven down to hell!" The golden lion inwardly gritted its teeth. It went mad, making this type of decision.
However, its strength suffered seriously, almost crippled by Shi Hao. It was worried that its strike wouldn't kill Shi Hao, instead bringing harm upon itself.
"I'll wait for his most critical moment and attack him then!" The golden lion thought viciously, preparing to launch a surprise attack on Shi Hao.
Right now, Shi Hao was lingering between life and death, wandering between decline and glory, sensing a deeper level of dao law trajectory, seizing its innermost essence.
Hong!
His body shone, as if buddhist light shone gloriously, as if a divine ring was added to his flesh. To use the body as a seed, in the end, it was opening the gates within one's body, and not relying on the great world.
Shi Hao's appearance was magnificent and dignified. Divine rings appeared around his body one after another, as if an immortal monk was reincarnating, also as if a true immortal was descending into the mortal world.
At this moment, he was divine, he was in a transcendent state, unconcerned with the mortal world, unafraid of the difficulties of the dao. The heaven and earth within his eyes were vast and boundless, his breadth of mind able to hold endless mountains and rivers.
On his body, divine chains of order appeared layer after layer, winding about him. These were some type of shackles, appearing at this level.
Qiang!
As Shi Hao's eyes released resplendent light, sword radiance rushed out from him, shooting out from his body, hacking apart the fetters!
"Why is it this fast?" The golden lion was shocked. His eyes narrowed, preparing to attack, because Shi Hao's primordial spirit will definitely reveal shackles, waiting to be severed.
It decided that it would release the fatal blow then.
"It's coming!" The golden lion felt its heart rate speed up, extremely nervous, fearing that it might miss this optimal chance.
Right now, Shi Hao was in an extremely wonderful state, as if he transcended above, observing his own body, looking down on all things. He was expressionless and indifferent as he calmly watched everything.
His primordial spirit was in his skull, but he could clearly sense everything around him, everything in his surroundings seized by his mind.
It was as if he was the world itself! This was a type of strange feeling, calm, pitiless, indifferent, even leaving himself shocked!
There were no emotional fluctuations, no ripples in his state of mind, ridiculously cold and apathetic, not a trace of individual emotion, calmly watching everything, overlooking all living things.
His primordial spirit was clearly within his body, but it made him feel like he was above the heavenly dome, currently risen above, coldly watching everything.
It was to the extent where he even indifferently saw that the golden lion wanted to harm him. He wasn't angry, not feeling any killing intent, only watching it coldly, not minding it.
Right now, he felt like the golden lion and his own flesh were balance, not wishing to interfere, there were no emotions involved.
This was too strange!
Hong!
Suddenly, from the very depths of his body, a roar of anger was released, as if it had dispelled some type of possessed state, destroying those shackles of indifference.
"Right, so it was actually like this!" Shi Hao gained enlightenment. This so-called overlooking all living things, state of transcending above was precisely a type of shackles that had to be struggled free of.
In that instant, he almost assimilated with the world's great dao, became a part of it. His true self was almost wiped out.
This was extremely terrifying. If things really continued the way they were going, Shi Hao might disintegrate into the dao, abandoning all sense of self, return to heaven and earth, bow before the great dao.
This went completely against his path of using the body as a seed!
Perhaps it was precisely because the path he took was special that this type of thing would happen. Even the great dao of heaven and earth descended, with divine chains of order wrapping over, used on his body.
Shi Hao broke out into cold sweat. In his opinion, before, he could have easily entered the Self Severing Realm, but it was actually this dangerous. Just now, he had almost had his dao cut short!
Now, he struggled free from that type of unfeeling and emotionless state!
However, above his primordial spirit, there were many divine chains of order. It was as if they were roasting him, trying to erase his drive, his powerful heart of ambition.
Only, he now woke up, reviving, no longer watching everything indifferently.
Moreover, right now, his primordial spirit was bound in chains, but only on the outside, not deep within him. After breaking through the 'Will of Heaven' just now, these could be removed.
That was why when he saw the golden lion raise his claw, act unfavorably against him, Shi Hao was completely expressionless, a slap flying over!
Pa!
Ah...
A clear sound rang out. The golden lion screamed miserably, all of the bones in its body breaking, tumbling outwards, the spectacle too horrible to endure. Blood flowed from its entire body, almost having its body and bones directly torn to pieces.
"Did you not know that any acts of harm against me would result in your death?!" Shi Hao said coldly, looking down on it. "This slap was to save you!"
The golden lion struggled, preventing his body from being destroyed, resisting the terrifying power within its body. When it heard these words, its golden pupils contracted, feeling incomparable anger and resentment.
It sensed that this really was the case. Previously, some type of restriction was set by Shi Hao, if not for that palm from Huang, it would most likely have died a step earlier, because it would suffer a backlash!
"Become a slave, play your part as my mount. In the future, I will ride you onto the battlefield to fight. This is your own path of life, or else your body and spirit will be destroyed." Shi Hao said indifferently.
Then, he didn't pay it any more attention, focusing on comprehending the dao, experiencing all types of extraordinary aspects of the Self Severing Realm.
The golden lion's expression was ugly, this thick lion mane shaking and moving like a raging flame. However, it could only endure its anger. It didn't want to die in such a good-for-nothing manner, wishing for revenge. Right now, it couldn't easily act out.
At the same time, it was inwardly shocked. Huang really was a freak, advancing to the Self Severing Realm in this type of place, clearly comprehending the dao, yet he could actually look at it indifferently, remain unaffected.
Chi!
In that instant, it saw a scene that made it tremble inside. A streak of clear light rushed out from the top of Shi Hao's head, hacking towards the heavens, piercing through the unmatched dao aura!
"Severing heaven's will, fighting against heavenly providence?!" The golden lion was shaken, entire body trembling. It heard this type of legend before, but this was the first time it saw this.
It was because from the past until now, it didn't know anyone who experienced this type of thing. There were no past examples, no one reaching this step.
"Using the body as a seed, and then after advancing into the Self Severing Realm, face heaven's will?" The golden lion's scalp turned numb.
When its ancestors were in the Nine Heavens Ten Earths, they naturally had experts who studied the body as a seed. However, all those before failed, no one able to reach that step.
Hong!
Lightning flickered about where Shi Hao stood, brilliance overflowing into the heavens. Blade radiance hacked down from the heavens above, while sword energy surged from where Shi Hao stood, rushing upwards.
The blades of heaven's will wanted to hack down on him!
Meanwhile, his own body's will was also going to pierce through the Will of Heaven!
"Self severing is a type of process. I understand now. This is only the beginning! What else will happen after?!" Shi Hao said to himself.
In that instant, blade energy covered the skies, endless lightning disappearing, everything coming to an abrupt end under the golden lion's stunned gaze.
The golden lion thought that this would continue for a long time, that something even more terrifying would happen. However, in that instant, everything became still.
This was the complete opposite of what it anticipated.
It was precisely as Shi Hao said, using the body as a seed would inevitably be extremely difficult. This was just the beginning, as his cultivation advanced, there were more and more things that had to be severed.
Meanwhile, these were just the first signs!
Hong!
Endless specks of light emerged, primal chaos surging from all directions. Immortal energy spread from within his body, great dao flowers blossomed. Shi Hao became resplendent like a buddha, also like a War Immortal, standing in the middle of a divine ring, extremely dazzling.
He officially entered the Self Severing Realm, moreover consolidated everything. He could even advance another step at any time!
Great power swirled within his body. Shi Hao had confidence in facing everything.
"This is a good place! No matter how great of an army surrounds me, I can still cultivate in seclusion within the Reincarnation Pool, break through here!" Shi Hao said to himself.
He brought a stupefied golden lion to the lake bottom. He now eliminated all of the great cultivators who trapped him here, and no one knew he was here, so it was the perfect time to enter seclusion, borrow this opportunity to become even stronger.
This time, when Shi Hao sank to the lake bottom, he developed a strange feeling. He vaguely heard some type of sound.
"Reincarnation start, dao gates opened wide!" This wasn't a misperception, there really was a grand voice transmitted over, as if someone was reading a supreme decree.

Chapter 1520 - Land of Reincarnation
Where did this sound come from? At first, it was faintly audible, but later on, it became grand and ear-splitting, the change extremely abrupt.
The Reincarnation Pool still had another world inside of it? Shi Hao stood at the lake bottom, extremely shocked, searching carefully.
The golden lion was completely dispirited and listless. With its current strength, it wasn't enough to enter the lake bottom. It was all because it inherited the ancient monk bloodline that it received protection here. However, right now, its injuries were extremely serious, difficult for it even though it originally harmonized with this place.
Shi Hao produced a screen of light, ensuring that it wouldn't die.
"It's underground!"
Shi Hao was sure that the voice came from below the bone piles at the lake bottom.
It was because it was becoming clearer and clearer, already distinguishable, no longer indistinct.
This made him feel a bit of hesitation. There were countless dried-up bones at the lake bottom, all of them left behind by great monks after they passed away. Could it be that he had to move them aside?
There were golden skeletons, suspected to be left behind by immortal monks!
In the end, Shi Hao still took action. After enduring the eighteen slaps, being struck by these monk bones, he didn't feel much mental pressure anymore.
The golden lion was also forced forward, made to move the monk bones, to open up a path.
Just how terrifying of an accumulation was this? Shi Hao discovered with shock that there were even more monk bones even after digging down a hundred zhang, making his mind feel a bit numb.
In the end, when they arrived at a hundred and eight zhang deep, they finally reached the bottom.
Below was a rock cave. There were some ancient caves linked up together, numerous and close together, as if it was a bee's nest.
Ta! Ta! Ta!
Suddenly, there were sounds transmitted from underground, resembling footsteps.
This was extremely sudden, making Shi Hao's mind immediately become tense. This cave had lake water too, so why was there this type of strange sound?
As for the golden lion, it was also extremely nervous. Were there other creatures in this underground cave?
Huala!
This was the sound of fetters, accompanied by the sound of iron chains. It was as if it sounded from the spacious underground depths, absolutely horrifying.
How could it be like this? It was as if it was connected to the underworld! The terrifying creature that was restricted walked over step by step, about to appear.
"Stand in front and lead the way!" Shi Hao pushed the golden lion, having it walk into the depths of the underground cave.
This Reincarnation Pool still had this type of strangeness, it was outside of what Shi Hao expected.
There were many underground caves, all of them linked up together.
Suddenly, the golden lion's fine hairs stood on end. All of its golden fur stood up, it looked like it encountered something extremely horrifying.
Soon afterwards, Shi Hao saw a corner of the underground cave scene. In the dusky underground cave, there was a group of troops that were spiritless, lacking life force. Their bodies carried shackles, faintly discernible as they passed that place.
"Ancient corpses, or are they yin soldiers?" Shi Hao was greatly shaken up inside.
Or was it to say that those were undead knights? Did they end up in a mysterious place, entering burial region?
In the darkness, the sounds of shackles were deafening, metal chains carrying gold light. They were like the dead from the underworld, passing by here.
This was just too weird!
Shi Hao was on guard, watching carefully. Unfortunately, that underground cave couldn't be considered that open, the troop disappearing into the distance.
"Follow them!"
After a moment of silence, Shi Hao spoke. He urged the golden lion on, having it lead the way.
"You… are crazy!" The golden lion wasn't willing. In its opinion, this place was too sinister. If it wasn't connected to burial realm, then it led to the underworld. Following it down like this really was seeking their own destruction.
Shi Hao only gave it a cold look, immediately leaving it with no choice but to brace itself and advance. It was because it still didn't want to die, not willing to fall in such a sullen state.
An hour later, the golden lion's expression changed from horrified to numb. It was because it really felt as if it entered hell. It saw many troops wandering about.
These creatures all had shackles on them, moving about in the underground ancient caves, heading towards the same place.
"This is the yin soldiers' territory?" The golden lion was extremely afraid.
Shi Hao didn't say anything, following behind it. Along the way, they even made their way around a few troops, waiting for them ahead, continuously observing.
"En?" Soon afterwards, he was shocked. This was inconceivable, because he saw an ancient beast that was extremely massive, a bit familiar.
This was a heavenly beast he saw in Heavenly Beast Forest. Why did it end up here?
"Yin Tuo great one?" Right at this time, the golden lion was in disbelief. It stared in a direction, looking at an elder.
It recognized one of them, precisely a great cultivator from the ones who encircled and pursued Shi Hao. Right now, he was standing in a yin soldier troop, lifeless as he walked forward.
Shi Hao felt like it was a bit strange. When he gazed forward, he also recognized that person. The so-called Yin Tuo had previously tried to kill him. Why was he here?
Based on normal reasoning, after the ancient beast roared, all of the creatures here would explode to pieces, no way they could continue existing. Their bodies and souls would be wiped out.
As for the great cultivators who dove into Reincarnation Pool, the few people who were fortunate enough to survive, they were all sent off by Shi Hao, their corpses no longer existing.
"It really is strange!" Shi Hao was confused.
As they went along, they recognized even more people. At the same time, they saw much more heavenly beasts, all of them belonging to the ancient forest on the surface.
In the end, at the limits of an earthen cave, Shi Hao saw a few giant stone doors. There weren't too many or too few, six in total!
Those troops gathered here, not moving at all, as if they were waiting for something.
In that instant, Shi Hao thought back to the grand voice not long ago: Land of Reincarnation, dao gates have opened!
Don't tell me that it was this place? This was the place the voice pointed at?
Regardless of whether it was him or the golden lion, they both revealed expressions of shock. Was this a reincarnation? Those dead creatures were going to be sent into the afterlife?
Suddenly, Shi Hao's expression became rigid. He saw another familiar creature in front of a stone gate, the Heavenly Mouse, a creature that had chased after him when he first entered Heavenly Beast Forest.
He clearly remembered that this Heavenly Beast had been penetrated by a mysterious ancient tree's withered branch. In the end, it cried out, chanting an incantation, saying that it would head towards reincarnation.
Moreover, Shi Hao even saw that it seemed to have fallen into Reincarnation Pool.
"It… came to this place."
How did these creatures come here? One had to understand that Shi Hao was always above the monk bones, yet these creatures seemed to be able to avoid him and the golden lion, directly appear in the underground cave.
"Don't tell me that after the ancient beast roared, when a large half of Heavenly Beast Forest was destroyed, many heavenly beasts and some of the great cultivators were forcefully sent here to reincarnate?"
This was too inconceivable!
Shi Hao thought back to the Heavenly Mouse's words. After it was sent to Reincarnation Pool, it would have to bow down, possibly completely lose its identity.
It was because the Heavenly Mouse had previously said that all of Heavenly Beast Forest's creatures lost their mind, it should be related to this place. They were in a state of confusion and ignorance.
"Is this the reincarnation created by the ancient monk bloodline?" Shi Hao was suspicious, at the same time, there was a chill that ran through his body, but he also felt extreme admiration.
Many creatures died, to the extent where even their bodies disappeared, yet they appeared here again, suspected to be waiting for reincarnation. This really was a huge affair.
"Could it be that all of Heavenly Beast Forest is a place of experimentation?"
Shi Hao began to seriously suspect that all of the creatures who died under the beast roar were brought here, possibly about to carry out a transmigration.
Of course, he felt that the so-called transmigration was definitely not truly coming back to life, but rather only their flesh reappearing. Their consciousness would be hazy, even more so like slave soldiers who only knew how to obey orders.
"The dao gates are opening!" That grand voice sounded again.
Hong!
Six great stone gates were opened, surging with primal chaos, mysterious and terrifying.
These yin soldiers, their corpses were divided into six groups. Their faces were expressionless as they separately set out, walking into the six stone gates.
At the same time, the six stone gates released brilliance, accompanied by mist. They gave off an extremely ancient feeling. Scripture sounds could be heard, sending people to the afterlife, into reincarnation.
"It really is strange!" Shi Hao said to himself. Were these the ancient monk's methods?
"Yi?" Suddenly, his attention was drawn by the patterns between the six gates.
Those were scriptures, as well as some complex stone engraving diagrams. They were extremely mysterious, actually recording some type of unmatched divine ability!
"Ancient monk bloodline's inheritance?!" Shi Hao was extremely shocked.
This was definitely not as simple as just a single scripture, moreover not few at all. The engravings filled the stone walls, releasing astonishing great dao aura.
The golden lion was also completely shocked. Then, it stared at a certain scripture, deeply engrossed by it, unable to free itself.
However, these scriptures were all incomplete, most of them ruined, at most recording a larger half.
Meanwhile, Shi Hao also concentrated on a stone engraving, earnestly remembering it. It consisted of eight diagrams, forming a mysterious magical imprint, the imprint itself giving off a deep and immeasurable dao aura.
There were no further explanations, only these eight diagrams.
The diagrams were complete, but they lacked a corresponding operation method, which were the most important scriptures.
Shi Hao strongly suspected that the eight diagrams seemed to contain the profound meanings of the Ancient Buddha's Eighteen Slaps. It was extremely great, the meaning it contained profound.
He was greatly shaken inwardly. He personally experienced the Ancient Buddha Eighteen Slaps, this type of thing was invaluable.
At the same time, he understood even better that the so-called eighteen slaps were a type of extremely terrifying attack method. To endlessly enlarge one's weakness, just how frightening of a method was this?
Its original diagram was right here. If he could completely comprehend it, then it would be an astonishing offensive secret technique!
Chi!
Suddenly, the six stone gates shone together. Moreover, the wall engraving diagrams, scriptures, and others also all shone, the effects applied to Shi Hao and the golden lion's bodies.
Then, they were sent into a stone gate, falling inside.
Were they being thrown into reincarnation, about to be sent to the afterlife?
The two of them were scared, but they really had no way of struggling free. They could only watch as they were sent into the distance!

Chapter 1521 - Strange Tree
Where were they heading? Were they really going to enter reincarnation?
The golden lion's great claws tore at the void, wishing to rip it apart, but it was completely futile. It wasn't able to stop itself at all, unable to escape.
"Stop for me!" It roared out. It was precisely because it was from the ancient monk bloodline that made it even more frightened, truly scared that it would have to reincarnate.
At that time, would it still be itself? It was because it had previously heard its ancestors mention a few of Zhang Six Golden Body Monk King's ideas. Following the reincarnation, one would become isolated from their past life, forgetting everything.
That was equivalent to destruction. To fully part with the past, forget everything, from a certain meaning, that would no longer be oneself, equivalent to a completely new living body.
"No, stop!" The golden lion roared.
It was because it was one thing if it did end up like that, right now, this type of so-called reincarnation was continuously changing, clearly haven't succeeded at all yet.
If they really entered reincarnation, then they might very well die!
Shi Hao also used all types of methods, but he didn't have any way of reversing this trend. Brilliant radiance surrounded them. They moved quickly, as if they were traveling along the river of time.
"Stop!" Shi Hao released a shout. All types of divine abilities appeared, but in the end, they were all ineffective, they still continued to move quickly.
Xiu!
They were like arrows that left bowstrings, involuntarily speeding along, leaving the underground cave.
"We seem to have left through a stone gate?" Shi Hao said to himself.
It was because the changes just now were too strange. With a flash of divine light, they already disappeared from their original location. If not for his divine senses being sharp, he wouldn't have noticed anything.
Finally, they slowed down, seeing a path. There were many figures on this path, their expressions all rigid, surrounded by death energy, lacking life force.
They were like a group of departed spirits, walking along the Nine Netherworlds' path.
Meanwhile, Shi Hao and the golden lion were fellow travelers. Soon afterwards, they saw a turbid lake, on it a pontoon bridge. These corpses were all crossing the river through this bridge.
"En, where did they go?" Shi Hao was shocked. The corpses who crossed the river all immediately disappeared, vanishing into the other shore, as if they disappeared into thin air.
At the same time, ancient beasts appeared one after another in various parts of Heavenly Beast Forest. There were also some great cultivators who came from the foreign side, their consciousness now no longer clear.
The heavenly beasts reappeared, still the original bunch!
When the ancient beast roared, the original mountain forest was destroyed, magma surging everywhere, these creatures already burned to ashes. However now, they appeared again, the magma disappearing. Great mountains rose steeply from the ground, the green forest shining, even the heavenly beasts who died returned.
This was an instance of reincarnation, but it was extremely strange, different from the true meaning great reincarnation.
This was even more like a reincarnation within a finite prison. Moreover, those creatures' conditions were clearly unusual. There were some with damaged divine awareness, some with their consciousness completely erased, becoming walking corpses.
On the path of reincarnation, Shi Hao and the golden lion stopped right before the lake water. They didn't immediately get on the bridge. They felt great hesitation, because they didn't know what rested at the limits of the bridge.
If they took that step, then it would be related to life and death.
However, when they turned around, they were stunned. There was no road behind them, only walking corpses appearing one after another, wishing to cross this bridge.
"Let's go. There's no way this place can turn the living into the dead." Shi Hao pushed the golden lion, having it lead the way.
The golden lion was furious, but didn't dare voice this. It silently cursed to itself, why don't you go first then?
Hong!
The two of them were different from others, those walking skeletal remains directly disappeared from the limits of the bridge, while when it was the golden lion's turn, it erupted into a blast of resplendent light, disappearing from this place.
When Shi Hao saw this, he quickly followed, crossing the bridge with a single step. Divine light shone brilliantly, incredibly dazzling, illuminating the entire turbid lake and ancient bridge.
Peng!
They appeared in a mountain ridge. After the golden lion fell, it hung from a withered tree, no longer moving.
Only when Shi Hao appeared, smashing into its body, did he fall together with it onto the ground.
Shi Hao's expression immediately changed, feeling a chill run from head to toe. This place was too familiar! He immediately recognized where he was.
It was that withered tree, the one that previously impaled the Heavenly Mouse, killed a group of foreign cultivators. This tree was extremely strange.
Back then, Shi Hao had previously watched from the distance, not approaching.
Meanwhile now, it was actually right before his eyes. He arrived under the tree. This place was extremely special, quiet and lacking sound.
The ancient tree was extremely large, the branches all lacking leaves. This was a withered old tree, its color was different, entirely dark black and bare.
Moreover, there were no plants in the surroundings, the ground dark red. The earth was soft and quite damp like a marsh, a bit muddy.
"Blood, the blood of countless creatures!" The golden lion cried out.
Right now, its golden fur was dyed in blood, the golden mane that was so thick it hung down to its massive claws even more so as if dripping with blood.
This so-called swamp was formed from blood!
After all these years had passed, this place actually didn't dry up. It was hard to imagine just how many creatures were killed here to form this type of blood swamp.
Meanwhile, this ancient tree was rooted in this swamp. No matter how one looked at it, this scene was extremely strange.
The golden lion stood up, extremely on guard. It felt quite uncomfortable here, just always feeling an extremely ominous feeling.
At the same time, it was extremely upset. Shi Hao really treated it like a mount, seated on its body, not getting off this entire time, not contaminated by the blood swamp.
"You! Get down here!" It roared out, its voice furious. If not for the fact that it really couldn't beat Huang, it would have long risked it all.
It was because it didn't want to die like this, still wanting to find a chance for revenge, which was why it continued to endure humiliation.
"Becoming my mount is your good fortune. After thousands, tens of thousands of years, news of this might very well become glory for your clan." Shi Hao said pompously.
When the golden lion heard this, it was infuriated. Its entire body shone, starting to retaliate, wishing to use precious techniques.
"Do you want to die? Acting recklessly here will result in inevitable death!" Shi Hao's palm struck down, smacking its head. A crack immediately appeared on the crown of its head, leaving the golden lion dizzy.
"Let me warn you, my patience is limited! If you don't want to die, then behave yourself!" Shi Hao threatened. The reason he took the Fearless Lion as its mount was precisely because he wanted to use it to intimidate some clans in the future.
Otherwise, he wanted to kill this lion a long time ago. This clan had debts of blood crying out for retribution, so he wouldn't feel any remorse killing this clan.
The golden lion was so angry it was seething with rage, all of its lion fur standing up straight. Golden light shone in all directions, as if it was a golden sun. Meanwhile, this also made Shi Hao on its back seem even more heroic, as if an immortal buddha was arriving on his mount.
Regardless, the golden lion still yielded in the end, enduring this sullenness, hoping for a chance to get revenge in the future.
"What is that?" Shi Hao carefully stared in this direction, looking towards the black ancient trees. He just couldn't shake off an uncomfortable feeling.
Meanwhile, at this time, he made a new discovery. There was actually a withered creature hanging from a tree fork, long dried up, already hard to make out its appearance.
"Bluegold Sable!" The golden lion also saw it. It sucked in a cold breath of air, recognizing this extremely terrifying creature. It was previously a war beast of the ancient monk bloodline.
Now, its fur was dim, long losing the blue-gold luster, more like a dried-up piece of wood. If one didn't look carefully, they wouldn't be able to recognize it at all.
"There's more!" Shi Hao raised his head, seeing a skeleton hanging from a fork even higher up. It was all skin and bones, tattered clothes covering its body.
"Great eminent monk, its cultivation at least exceeding the Self Release Realm!" The golden lion was shocked, crying out in alarm.
Even though the dried-up corpse was skinny and shriveled, the dried old skin still shone with a faint golden color. This was a feeling of buddhist golden body enlightenment, he was a terrifying expert.
Meanwhile, what was worn on his body was a Kasaya, refined from Star Sand. It was originally a rare secret treasure, but it had long been worn under the passage of time, now completely lacking luster.
A great eminent monk was hung from this ancient tree just like that, it really was strange, a bit frightening.
Regardless of whether it was Shi Hao or the golden lion, their expressions all became serious. They stared at this ancient tree, walking around below the tree, seriously examining the forks of this massive tree.
Sure enough, it wasn't as simple as just one or two powerful individuals hanging from this place, there were many more!
The golden lion's body trembled intensely, actually shuddering. It was because it recognized one of the creatures here, its origins extremely great, body massive, but it was now still dried out and hanging from this place.
"White Jade Dragon Elephant!"
This was but one of the sacred beasts that protected the ancient monk bloodline's sect, an extremely well-known race! When the ancient monk bloodline was mentioned, many times, it would be this sacred beast that was thought of.
A White Jade Dragon Elephant was actually hung to death here!

Chapter 1522 - Blood Bodhi
The ancient monk bloodline's sacred beast! This creature's history was extremely great, an expert among experts. Otherwise, how could it be known as a sect protecting sacred beast?
Meanwhile, it was actually hung to death just like this!
Shi Hao's expression changed, staring at this dried-up tree. Meanwhile, the golden lion was even more vigilant, sensing great danger, carefully observing this place.
There were just too many dead people on this tree, all of them hanging like this. After endless years passed, they all dried up, this the case for the entire giant tree. It was extremely terrifying.
The golden lion's scalp tightened, feeling its blood run cold. At the same time, it was extremely angry, also a bit fearful. It was because it saw another giant.
This was a lion, of the same race as itself, a Fearless Lion!
The ancient lion was like a small mountain, its frame thick and solid. It was ridiculously large, only, compared to this withered tree, it was no longer that majestic. It had dried out a long time ago.
The golden fur was dim, all skin and bones. It was strangled on the withered tree, a branch winding about its neck, its death even more miserable than that of others.
"My ancestor?!" The golden lion was furious. It wanted to rush over and let down that ancient lion.
"Don't act recklessly. If you want to die, I can directly slap you to death. Don't drag me down with you." Shi Hao stopped it.
"In the past, one of my ancestors disappeared. It was incomparably powerful in the past! I never expected it to have died here!" It was extremely stirred up and resentful, rage surging within it.
"It died well, serves it right. The creatures who betrayed the Nine Heavens Ten Earths should be punished just like this!" Shi Hao said without any politeness.
When the golden lion heard this, it wanted to go mad, but unfortunately, the one it met was Huang. This was equivalent to seeking out suffering for itself. In the end, it was covered in bruises, could only powerlessly hang its prideful head.
Shi Hao carefully observed this ancient tree, now confident that this tree that towered into the clouds was a massive cemetery, many corpses hanging from it.
Among them, there were some corpses that were extremely miserable, hung to death, completely losing spirit.
He began to seriously suspect if the underground blood swamp was left behind by those creatures.
"Could this tree be… the past Ancient Bodhi Tree?" After the golden lion observed this place carefully, it came to this kind of conclusion with astonishment.
The ancient monk race previously had a precious tree named Bodhi. It possessed bizarre mighty force. When one sat below it and cultivated, it would be extremely easy to comprehend the dao.
Only, in the past, that tree was fresh and verdant, full of life, able to release heaven reaching multicolored light, incomparably divine and holy. It was completely different from this tree.
The ancient monk bloodline's bodhi tree? Shi Hao rubbed his lower chin, starting to think to himself. Why was this tree entirely pitch-black? Just what kind of disaster did it experience? It was definitely not caused by lightning.
"Could it be that it was corroded, undergoing a great change, all of the divinity fading away, replaced by darkness attribute power?" The golden lion said to itself.
It didn't say this to explain to Shi Hao what was happening, but rather because it was curious itself, wishing to figure this matter out.
Back then, their bloodline betrayed the Nine Heavens. After the ancient ancestors fled to the foreign side, something that always bothered them was that they wanted to obtain the Ancient Bodhi Tree.
It was because this tree was too extraordinary, having tremendous benefits towards one's cultivation. The past Immortal Monk King was suspected to have achieved the dao through this!
Eventually, with the world in chaos, that ancestor sent out an heir to seek out the Ancient Bodhi Tree, but that lion never returned.
Now, it was revealed that it was hung to death here.
"The ancient tree is entirely black, could it be that it is because of the blood it absorbed on the ground, corroding its divinity?" The golden lion said.
Shi Hao felt like something definitely happened before. The past monk family precious tree had met with misfortune.
"They all said that cultivating beneath this ancient tree would produce unimaginable results. You don't want to give it a try?" The golden lion urged Shi Hao.
"You have a point." Shi Hao nodded, not showing any fear.
The golden lion wasn't sure if what he said was real or not, so it threw in more bait, saying, "It is rumored that this ancient tree is the ancient monk bloodline's supreme treasure. It is because the tree body might carry imprints inside, carrying generation after generation of this clan's inheritance!"
"Since this is the case, then I'll give you a chance to cultivate under this tree, comprehend the Ancient Buddha's Eighteen Slaps in my place!" Shi Hao said.
The golden lion opened its mouth. It had just wanted to refused when Shi Hao immediately gave it a cold look, saying, "If you don't comprehend the dao, I might consider just killing you. It is because if you want to be my mount, it won't do if you aren't strong enough."
When faced with this type of savage, the golden lion was furious, yet helpless. It was so powerful, when had it ever been threatened by its peers before? This really left it feeling too wronged.
Then, Shi Hao didn't hold back, really intending to kill it.
The golden lion's face fell, calming itself down under this tree. It tried to sense heaven and earth natural law here. Even though it didn't have good intentions when it urged Shi Hao on, this wasn't necessarily something it didn't want to try itself.
Now that it was forced to do it, it clenched its teeth, really going to do it.
It was because this ancient tree really was like this, having a wave of mysterious power, a supreme treasure that allowed one to comprehend the dao.
"Ah…" As soon as it began, the golden lion cried out miserably, its large claws holding its head, rolling all over the ground, its body covered in blood.
Shi Hao jumped off, no longer riding it. He frowned, asking, "What's wrong?"
The golden lion's face turned pale, the space between its brows cracking apart. It only calmed down again after a long time had passed. "Something's not right with this tree."
Shi Hao took action, completely sealing the golden lion, preventing it from moving.
Then, he sat underneath the bodhi tree himself, carefully comprehending the dao.
Hong!
As soon as it began, Shi Hao immediately suffered a terrifying attack. This was still when he already prepared himself beforehand, otherwise, it would be even more terrifying.
A bitter aura spread, as if a tangible weapon hacked over, covering heaven and earth, rushing at his head. Its power was astonishing!
A strand of blood flowed out from the space between Shi Hao's brows. However, he endured it!
He vaguely saw a grand battlefield. Countless experts fought a great battle, shouts of war shook the heavens. Blood continuously scattered down, falling into this place.
This tree bathed in all types of blood, carrying murderous auras, in the end becoming scarlet red!
This scene clearly played in Shi Hao's head, leaving him extremely shocked. Was this the reason why the Ancient Bodhi Tree withered away?
Things were definitely not that simple! Soon afterwards, he saw a creature start to water the bodhi tree, the container filled with blood, shining with dazzling light.
This tree was watered with divine blood!
Who was that?
Doing this would turn this tree into a demonic tree, yet they didn't hesitate to pay the price, continuing to nurture it like this.
Hou!
A great roar sounded, ringing in Shi Hao's mind. He saw a golden lion release a roaring voice. It was simply about to make him split apart, the blood between his brows dripping out more and more.
"Ao…" Then, he saw a giant white elephant that crushed the heavens, also crying out, its voice making his soul unsteady.
This killing intent was all released from the ancient tree. No wonder the golden lion immediately rolled about on the ground, even Shi Hao almost couldn't hold on. The tree's murderous nature was too strong.
He had only begun to come into contact with it, yet the tree's imprints already displayed two sect protecting sacred beasts from the ancient monk bloodline. It was a bit terrifying.
Then, the ancient tree's demonic nature appeared a step further. In a daze, Shi Hao heard the sound of a wooden fish being struck, the noise making his primordial spirit unstable, about to break apart.
Moreover, he saw a hand that was covered in blood, striking a dark red, bloodstained wooden fish.
"It was originally a dao tree, but it instead displays such terrifying scenes. Did it really fall into depravity?" Shi Hao said to himself. He resisted with difficulty, maintaining clearheadedness.
His body swayed, already unstable, about to fall into the blood swamp.
Meanwhile, at this time, a blood-soaked temple appeared in Shi Hao's mind. It was extremely vast, only, it was no longer pure and holy, every tile, every brick, every pillar contaminated by blood.
However, inside this bloody and massive temple, there was someone chanting scriptures, the voice ear-splitting.
When he listened carefully, he discovered that this was a demonic scripture that made one fall from grace, drop into a black abyss.
"What is going on?" Blood trickled out from the corner of Shi Hao's lips. The past divine temple actually had demonic scriptures chanted within, this was completely absurd, extremely terrifying.
"Blood Bodhi, this tree has been nourished by blood, becoming a demonic nature sacred tree. If it germinates once more, grows leaves, it will become completely different!" The golden lion said to itself from the side, inwardly shocked, already shaking.
This was the same as the legends. If the bodhi dao tree was watered with the blood of the most powerful from various clans, it might display a completely unknown side.
Meanwhile, the golden lion actually saw this here, someone really doing this.
Without a doubt, this unmatched precious tree was now a Blood Bodhi!
"However, its past engravings should still be there, recording the ancient monk bloodline's inheritance." The golden lion's pupils flickered about.
Shi Hao persisted on, not cowering back. Even if this tree was corrupted, he still remained fearless. He viewed this as a form of tempering, treating this tree as a whetstone.
A past scene appeared in his mind. In a daze, he passed through the ancient monk bloodline's highest ancient monastery's main hall, currently heading towards the scripture storage pavilion.
He wanted to read the scriptures, comprehend the great dao here.
However, this was extremely dangerous. A single mistake and he would assimilate with the demonic tree, fall into darkness.

Chapter 1523 - Huang is Finished
Blood Bodhi, this was originally an unmatched precious tree. It could be used to comprehend the dao, but now, it had become completely corrupt.
However, Shi Hao was still trying, wishing to comprehend the dao through this ancient tree, gain some insights through it.
It was because the tree had imprints inside of it. He could hear a golden bell, great pitch pipe sound, he saw the highest ancient monastery, tiles and bricks golden, releasing divine radiance.
Only, the palace hall was dripping with blood. Even though there were deafening scripture sounds, it was still extremely strange. The grand ancient palace had golden tiles, but they carried dark red bloody wisps.
The bloodstains were mottled, splattering on the ground.
Brilliant golden splendor scattered down, at the same time, there was black mist that pervaded the air. This was the world Shi Hao saw within his mind, leaving him incomparably shocked.
This was especially the case when he walked up to the scripture storage pavilion, the sound making his entire body tremble, as if these weren't chanting voices, but rather a great devil lecturing!
Should he push open that gate? He hesitated.
He already reached the most important place, but this place was also extremely dangerous. This was the scene reflected in his inner world, they were definitely the engravings inside the Blood Bodhi.
If he went a step further, who knows, he might also become a demon, or maybe he will become a buddhist monk?
Hong!
In the end, Shi Hao pushed open the gate. He wanted to walk inside, see the so-called mysterious inheritance that had produced immortals, produced Immortal Monk King.
Everything became different. Black blood flowed streak after streak from the golden tiles, landing on the ground surface, releasing terrifying noises!
…
Outside Heavenly Beast Forest.
There were many foreign troops everywhere. For the sake of that rotten wooden chest, they mustered great forces, sending out who knew how many experts, all clans sending out men.
"Most of this ancient forest had clearly been destroyed, so why is it overflowing with green multicolored light, becoming lush and verdant again?" Someone cried out in astonishment, feeling extremely shocked.
This was too inconceivable. They all sensed a wave of destructive energy just now, clearly seeing the forest collapse, mountain range cave in, magma surging, stars falling.
However now, it was full of vitality, quickly returning to normal. This was extremely mysterious.
"What happened to our men?" A scarlet-haired elder asked. This was a leading figure.
Of course, he still wasn't a supreme being, only one of the ones in charge of the various clans' great army.
As for true supreme beings, only a few came. They sat in the skies above, their bodies surrounded by primal chaos, all of their figures extremely blurry, not moving at all like sculptures.
They were so low-profile, aura restrained, but the cultivators who looked in that direction still felt a great pressure, feeling the urge to kowtow, kneel down.
"The situation might be extremely unfavorable. All contact with the mountain forest has been cut, we have completely lost connection with those people!"
"Go and investigate, find out what happened!"
It had to be said that the foreign side were extremely efficient. After several dozen troops rushed into the forest, they quickly obtained a result.
"Many of them likely died, there is no signs of them, no traces of them to be found!"
"This is indeed the case. We wanted to light their soul lamps, but most of them failed!" Another group confirmed this.
This was an extremely shocking news. There were many, many experts who entered! Just the great cultivators alone numbered above a hundred. If they all died, the price would be just too great!
"What about Emperor Clan's young great one?" Someone asked anxiously. If something happened to Emperor Clan's descendant, then the consequences might be extremely severe.
It was because it had already been tens of thousands of years since an inheritor left those ancient lands. If he died right after coming out, it really would be hard to explain. It would be them who didn't properly take care of him.
"Gu Clan's inheritor, did he also encounter trouble?" Another person asked. It was because this clan was also extremely terrifying, not needing to bow down when seeing an Emperor Clan, of equal status.
"Fortunately, their soul lamps could be lit, they didn't die!" Someone revealed a happy expression.
After some time had passed, they obtained confirmed news that most of the mountain forest had been destroyed, all creatures in the areas involved suffered disaster, dying as a result.
They completely lost contact with them, the soul lamps dark, everything cold and desolate.
Meanwhile, the ones who obtained a response, confirmed to be alive, were all in another region. However, there were quite a few of them who were still seriously injured, their current conditions extremely terrible.
"It is as we predicted, that ancient beast had previously revived for a short period of time, releasing a world-shaking roar. All creatures in the sound wave's path were obliterated!"
When this information spread, an uproar was raised outside Heavenly Beast Forest. Many great cultivators shivered inwardly, their bodies going cold.
This forest was too frightening. So many creatures entered, yet they all died just like that. Just how tragic and terrifying was this?
"What about Huang? What about him?!" Someone urgently asked.
They came for him this time. Everyone was chasing after him, so Shi Hao's life or death was naturally on the mind of every person.
"There's no way we can have his soul lamp, so there is no way of ascertaining whether he is dead or alive. However, based on normal reasoning, if he was in that region, then he is definitely dead!"
"We previously obtained a report that those cultivators were there precisely because they were chasing after him. Huang should have been moving about that region!"
Everyone became quiet. This meant that Huang was already dead.
"What about the wooden chest? This is the most important thing!" A silver-haired elder asked.
Regardless of whether Shi Hao was dead or not, that chest had to be found. Otherwise, they would have sent out so many people for nothing.
They were extremely worried. After that ancient beast released a world-shaking roar, what else was left?
The great cultivators all died without a burial site, could that chest still remain?
"The chest definitely won't be destroyed, or else it wouldn't have remained intact after being buried in the ancient grave for endless generations. It is definitely still in the forest! Search this entire place, it has to be found!" A leader roared.
He was extremely impatient, because this was a decree passed down by Anlan and Shutuo themselves. This mission was of the utmost importance.
"It has to be found!" At this time, even the supreme beings who had sat in the heavenly dome above, always remaining quiet spoke. Their voices were firm and unquestionable.
This was the same as forcing everyone to go in, giving them the order to sacrifice their lives.
Soon afterwards, many troops moved out, dividing into several dozen groups. Meanwhile, these people continued to scatter as they went in, carrying out a comprehensive search.
"Found it!"
After a long time had passed, when this shout sounded from the distance, everyone near Heavenly Beast Mountain's surroundings was greatly shaken. There was finally a result! This left them happy and moved!
"It's over there! Bring the chest over!" Many elders roared. Their first thought was naturally to obtain the rotten wooden chest, they didn't care about anything else.
"No… the one we found was Huang, he is still alive!" The messenger from the forest quickly explained.
"What?!" The group of elders were immediately stunned.
As for the others, they were all shocked, expressions full of disbelief. These news were just too shocking! A catastrophic disaster happened not long ago, so how could Huang have lived?
"This evil thing!" Suddenly someone shouted, eyes even becoming red.
It was because several dozen to over a hundred of their great cultivators died. These people all left to chase after Huang, yet in the end, they died, yet Huang was still alive?
This left everyone furious, surging with anger.
This was especially the case for the clans who were connected to the dead, feeling even more anger. They felt like those people's deaths were too wronged, not worth it at all.
For the sake of killing Huang, a group of great experts encountered disaster, dying under the ancient beast's roar, while the main character himself was perfectly fine, still free and unfettered.
This made many people's eyes turn bright red, killing intent surging into the heavens.
"Get revenge, kill Huang!"
"I want to slaughter that little bastard! I've never been this angry before! When have we ever suffered this type of humiliation before? Over a hundred cultivators died, this is a blood grudge, even more so a great offense!"
"Kill! Take his head, restrict his soul, make him wish he was dead rather than alive!"
At this moment, some people even temporarily forgot about the rotten wooden chest, only wishing to get rid of Huang, split his corpse to ten thousand pieces, their hair all standing on end.
There were some who were cool-headed, expressions ice-cold, thinking to themselves why Huang was able to live, just how did he do it. It was because this didn't make sense, completely a miracle.
He was just a young cultivator, so how could he be stronger than those Self Release Realm great cultivators? How did he make it through?
"Be careful, don't let another tragedy happen!" Someone shouted, reminding everyone.
It was because what happened not too long ago was too miserable. So many powerful individuals died miserably, making everyone feel a headache, hearts sore. How were they going to explain things to the clans when they went back?
"Don't worry, nothing unexpected will happen this time. We already found his precise location. This brat is actually sitting under a withered and dying ancient tree, cultivating there!" Someone said through clenched teeth, saying with great confidence, "He won't be able to escape!"
"This time, his wings are pinned, he won't get away. We won't give him another chance. Surround that place first, and then we'll take action together, kill him!"
"He is dead for sure, not even an immortal can save him!"
The group of people were absolutely furious, surging with killing intent, vowing to quickly capture Huang and cut him to pieces.
"I hope nothing unexpected happens this time. If this many experts die again, then it is simply a disaster, the tragedy absolutely must not repeat itself!" An extremely serious old cultivator seriously said.
"That won't happen. He is finished! Huang has angered us, he will definitely wish he was dead rather than alive!" Someone roared out.

Chapter 1524 - Foreign Side's Second Tragedy
However, the earnest old cultivator still frowned, just feeling like the deaths of those old cultivators were related to Huang.
But he had no proof. No one believed that Huang could order around that ancient beast, this was completely inconceivable, shouldn't be possible at all!
"You all have to be careful!" The old cultivator warned extremely seriously. He was one of the commanders of the great army, extremely dignified. The people here attached great importance to his opinions.
"Please don't worry, once we surround him, we will immediately move. He won't have the slightest chance at all!"
"Senior great one, please don't worry, we will move together. How can a brat like him defy the heavens?"
The group of people went on their way, carrying anger, carrying resentment as they charged into Heavenly Beast Forest, wishing to quickly kill Huang.
It was because so far, everything was going badly. They didn't obtain results, instead losing so many powerful individuals, the losses heavy.
Many people were impatient, wishing to immediately kill Huang and vent a bit of resentment. There were even some that were extremely moved, wishing to personally end their target.
"Come, Huang, I am looking forward to this! I am finally going to meet you, I will personally wring your neck!" A robust male released a low roar, extremely excited.
"Those people are too unlucky, encountering the ancient beast's great roar and being completely wiped out. Wait for us to kill Huang, we'll offer a sacrifice to those departed spirits!"
Many people were extremely confident, sure that it was time to end this trip to Heavenly Beast Forest. They were going to kill Huang soon, the mission about to be complete.
These individuals were extremely fast, closing in on that place, surrounding this quiet place. Then, they slowly closed in, gathering towards that place.
One could see that this region was rich with plant life, especially the mountain ridge ahead, which was even more verdant and lush with life. Green multicolored light flickered about, the radiance sparkling and translucent, life essence energy exceptionally rich.
Only, the depths of the mountain ridge seemed extremely out of place. There was a black ancient tree that had long dried up, lacking leaves and vitality, dead for who knew how many tens of thousands of years.
Only, it was extremely indistinct, surrounded by some mist.
One could see that a youngster was seated right below the tree, releasing a type of mysterious dao energy, as if he was comprehending something.
"I want to skin him alive!" Someone said with a suppressed voice.
"This bastard, is he looking down on us? Or does he really not know the difference between death and life, daring to cultivate in seclusion even while in this type of place? Utter fool!" There were some who were extremely indignant, cursing furiously.
It was because large groups of experts were chasing after Huang, roaming about Heavenly Beast Forest, but he was instead so carefree, not worried at all, cultivating under an ancient tree.
If this was before, others would definitely be between laughter and tears, taking some time to mock and ridicule him, saying that he didn't know the height and depth of heaven and earth, that he was digging his own grave.
However now, they weren't in the mood. With so many cultivators dead, moreover Huang this calm here, completely focused on comprehending the great dao, it would only make them feel annoyed, as if they were being humiliated.
Shi Hao really was extremely calm, sitting there just like that. So many people came, yet he didn't wake up. Was he really just that daring, or were his reactions too slow?
Now that Shi Hao was this calm, it instead made this group of people nervous!
This couldn't be blamed on Shi Hao, because he entered a strange state. This was extremely terrifying, and also extremely bizarre. He couldn't immediately return to normal, snap back to reality.
However, he wasn't scared either. He had long thought things through. It was safe below this ancient tree, if anyone dared release killing intent, then things would definitely end miserably for them.
"Heh heh… this idiot, he actually decided to stay in one place, immerse himself in a higher level of cultivation state. He's completely done for!"
"He is going to die a fool!"
These people laughed, many of them moving around, surrounding the mountain ridge. They either stood on giant rocks or on tall mountains, their figure everywhere, the number of people difficult to count.
Of course, this time, it was the great army who came, no way they could all be great cultivators.
However, among the eight thousand people, there were still several dozen great cultivators. For the sake of preventing Shi Hao from escaping, there were great experts who oversaw this place, they didn't want to give him the slightest opportunity.
As for the others, they were all people sent out to carry out the complete search.
En?
Suddenly, someone with sharp eyes noticed the golden lion in the swamp. Even though it was sealed, right now not able to move at all, thrown into the swamp, there were still foreign people who noticed it.
"Isn't that the Fearless Lion bloodline's inheritor?" A few people were shocked. This lion was extremely formidable, well-known among the younger generation.
It was actually captured alive and suppressed here, in an extremely humiliating position, almost servile, half kneeling in the swamp, currently facing Shi Hao.
"This lion is extremely strong, yet it was captured by him. It will be difficult to explain things to the Fearless Lion bloodline now…"
"It really is humiliating. The golden lion has always been arrogant, yet now, its head is bent over, buried in the swamp!" Someone said furiously.
The golden lion saw everyone. It was extremely fretful, eyes flickering with worry, but couldn't communicate with them at all because it had been sealed.
Out of fear that he might enter a deeper self transcending state while cultivating in seclusion, Shi Hao sealed up the golden lion's flesh and soul beforehand.
The golden lion was extremely anxious, really wishing to roar towards the heavens, remind everyone not to take action here, or else there would be a great disaster.
It was because it had already heard Huang say that attacking here would inevitably result in death. Not long ago, when it wanted to take action, it was Huang who personally neutralized it, not letting it throw its life away.
"Huang, wake up! The ones who have come to take your head have come!" Someone spoke, directly walking out from the darkness, looking forward, sneering endlessly.
"Back up!" An elder berated him with a low voice, extremely serious.
It was because there were some people who really were extremely careful, remembering the commanding elder's warning, fearing that something unexpected might happen. After all, there were many people who already died previously.
There were some people who felt a bit awkward. They really wanted to wake Shi Hao up, seize him, beat and humiliate him, and then kill him.
However now, the elders warned them not to act rashly.
"That chest is under his feet!" Someone said, pleasantly surprised, emotions surging greatly within him. He stared at a rotten wooden chest below Shi Hao's feet.
"That's the one, we've finally seen it!"
"Seniors, aren't we being too careful? Huang is clearly in a dao comprehension state, we can easily kill him, so what are we waiting for? Please let me go and take his head, bring back that chest!" Someone said.
"No!"
"You must not act carelessly!"
The leaders practically unanimously rejected.
Many people felt oppressed. Huang was already right before them, just sitting right there, yet they still had to hold themselves back. They all felt like those old fellas were too careful.
In the distance, the golden lion released a slight breath of relief, feeling like the older generation figures really were cool-headed. When faced with this situation of inevitable victory, they could still remain calm, it was worthy of admiration.
A commander spoke, saying, "Even though Huang is young, cultivation level not as high as ours, the reason he has been able to live until now definitely isn't without reason. Moreover, I suspect that the group of cultivators who died not long ago might very well have something to do with him. Perhaps he has a way of making that ancient beast take action."
The golden lion sighed with admiration. Those old leaders directly hit the nail on the head, making him deeply experience 'old ginger is more spicy'.
However, soon afterwards, the golden lion was shocked, becoming fretful to the extreme, face becoming pale. He really wanted to roar out.
It was because those elders came to a decision that made it feel fear, deeply horrified. It was completely different from what it expected!
"That is why we must face him seriously. We will all take action together, directly kill Huang, not give him the chance to call upon that ancient beast!"
There was actually a leader who spoke like this, coming to this type of decision.
"Senior, this is just too cautious, right? It is just a single Huang, I can kill him if I just go myself. Moreover, in the time we took to say this much, I could have killed Huang many times over!" Someone expressed dissatisfaction.
Under the withered tree, when the golden lion heard this, he really wanted to nod, frantically praying for them not to attack together.
"We absolutely must act carefully. This Huang really isn't simple, I suspect that he is doing this on purpose, trying to bait us over. Who knows, it might be extremely dangerous up ahead. None of you are allowed to go over, and we aren't going to save that lion right now either. All of you take action when I give the signal, blast him to death! I refuse to believe that he can survive! Even if there are formations buried there, if we remain far enough, it will still be enough to avoid danger." An elder said calmly.
"Alright, guess we are letting him off easy. Originally, I wanted to let him experience the humiliation of becoming a prisoner!" A robust male said, still a bit unwilling.
Immediately afterwards, many people's bodies shone, preparing to take action, all of them operating ancestral methods!
Of course, in the end, the people at the very back didn't take action, because they felt like there was no need, the great cultivators ahead attacking was already enough. Huang would undoubtedly die, his body and soul erased.
"Attack!" A commander's white hair scattered down, releasing a great shout, issuing the order.
Hong!
Many light beams shot out, killing intent overflowing, divine abilities brilliant and varied. This was the most powerful ancestral method attack, all of them gathering towards Huang, wishing to deal him a fatal blow!
It was clear that these people hated Shi Hao bitterly, really wishing to immediately beat him into a bloody paste, as a result, they all attacked with the greatest power.
This resulted in their display of ancestral techniques being extremely magnificent, divine might fluctuations intense, as if waves were rising and falling!
However, the result was outside everyone's expectations, leaving them in disbelief, and then in utter fear. Their pupils contracted, and then quickly enlarged.
It was because that withered tree seemed to have become a matchless devil king, endless branches extending out, pitch-black and terrifying, quickly shooting over, scattering their ancestral methods' radiance, piercing at them.
Pu pu pu…
Blood radiance filled the heavens. This place seemed to have become hell on earth, just too miserable!
Ah…
Miserable cries rang out, traveling through space, transmitted through the forest. It was because there were people who were paying close attention to this place, they would notice if there was any activity.
"Not good, what happened?" Outside the forest, the expressions of a group of important figures suddenly changed, all of them feeling that things were really bad.
Hong!
Immediately afterwards, they saw blood radiance rush into the heavens in that direction, dyeing the skies red.
"Could it be that something really happened? The tragedy… is replaying again?!" A commander trembled, face ashen, extremely malevolent as he stared in that direction with shock.
The others' expressions all changed as well, as ugly as ugly could be. Their chests were rising and falling intensely, breathing rough and heavy, all looking towards Heavenly Beast Forest depths!

Chapter 1525 - Solitary Buddha Eight Forms
Right at this time, cold sweat covered everyone, their bodies going ice-cold. They sensed that things had gone horribly wrong!
It was because that direction was too clear, precisely where Huang was. Something definitely happened!
"Blood radiance overflowing, rushing into the sky, this is a great disaster! Normally speaking, this is only something that is seen when many experts die at the same time!" Someone said with an extremely unnatural voice.
Everyone's minds had already sunk even without him saying anything.
"Go and see what's going on, if something really happened!" An elder instructed anxiously.
If something really did happen, they really didn't dare imagine the consequences. This happened again and again, was this some type of ominous and frightening sign? There were legends a long time ago, saying that Heavenly Beast Forest couldn't be rashly stepped foot in, that something bad might easily happen.
When they first came, they felt like they were lucky, that their army had an overwhelming advantage, that there was nothing to fear.
Now, it seemed like this wasn't the case at all. This place was too terrifying, even more sinister than the legends.
"Reporting! Things are bad, it really is that place! There is bloody mist everywhere, cries of alarm endless. Something major has happened there!" Soon afterwards, someone reported in alarm.
With a weng sound, the experts here all felt blood rush to their heads, feeling great headaches. They felt incredibly overcast, these news were too terrible.
Never had they ever encountered such strange things. For the sake of a youngster, they sent out so many great cultivators, yet in the end, some powerful individuals died for no good reason.
Things were now really big. There were thousands of men who entered! Just what exactly happened? From the looks of it, they didn't all die, but it was pretty close.
"Are you sure that something… unexpected happened there?" An elder asked, lips even trembling, words not smooth. He was panicking inside. The losses this time were just too great.
"Correct, something has happened over there!" The messenger said definitively.
"Heavens! What happened? Why is it like this? Don't tell me it really is cursed land that can't be entered?" Someone shouted out, feeling like his heart was splitting, lungs being torn apart.
It could be said that the ones here were all powerful individuals, normally collected, rarely speaking. However now, they lost their bearing, already somewhat unable to bother with appearances.
The things that happened today really were hard for them to bear. When they returned, they would receive the blame of the clans, their abilities doubted.
It was because those were men transferred from all different clans. Now that they died just like this, losing their lives in such strange ways, how could those clans just leave the matter at that?!
"Seniors, please take action!"
A group of experts kowtowed towards the void, gazing towards the heavens, carrying hopeful expressions, but even more a type of fear.
There were several indistinct figures surrounded by primal chaos, precisely the supreme beings who came from the other side. They were in charge of bringing up the rear, these individuals remaining silent all this time.
Right now, everyone was scared, unable to imagine just what kind of thing happened in Heavenly Beast forest. They wanted to ask these great figures to take action.
Only, a supreme being opened his eyes, saying with a light sigh, "It isn't easy for us to enter this forest. You all should have heard some rumors. When we enter, there might be even more danger."
"But there's now such a great disturbance…" An elder said with a quiet voice. They really felt powerless, even now not knowing why a second tragedy happened.
Within the depths of Heavenly Beast Forest.
Near the withered tree, bloody mist pervaded the air. This time, there really were too many creatures who died. The dried-up branches reached out one after another, even faster than lightning, killing great cultivators one after another.
Of those who took action, not a single one could escape, all of them pierced through.
They didn't understand, and as a result, they struggled bitterly, doing everything they could to resist, retaliating with the most powerful ancestral methods. In the end, a few people exploded to death.
Just a light shake from those branches was enough to rip a powerful being to shreds just like that, like a cloth doll, unable to withstand even a single hit.
Many people died, there were some whose bodies were left behind after being impaled, sent to reincarnation, falling into Reincarnation Pool through a spatial passage!
When the others saw this, they were naturally all horrified.
Even the ones who didn't take action now attacked for the sake of self protection, for the sake of escaping. They all used magical artifacts and secret methods, this place becoming dazzling to the extreme as a result.
However, this was also destined to end in disaster. Many black branches rushed out like spears of death from hell, killing those creatures.
Under a rain of blood, interweaving dark light, group after group of foreign creatures were killed, the spectacle too horrible to endure.
Of this great army of several thousand, in the end, only a few people remained, those who were far enough, moreover scared to the point where they were frozen stiff, not taking action, as a result temporarily holding onto their lives.
In the end, they didn't have any fighting spirit left, no courage, turning around to run. Like this, a few people managed to live.
The golden lion watched everything with its own eyes, inwardly shivering, face pale. It was truly horrified. This massacre wasn't any inferior to the previous one by the Reincarnation Pool.
They died too pitifully, completely nailed to death when they first took action!
It saw everything clearly, the tragedy playing out right before its eyes, making all of its fur stand on end. It was extremely terrified.
A long time passed. Bloody mist pervaded the air, this place already extremely quiet. Only now did the golden lion snap out of its petrified and terrified state.
It sneaked a glance towards Shi Hao, and then it was immediately stupefied, revealing an extremely complicated expression.
It was because during this process, Shi Hao was extremely peaceful, not waking up at all, still cultivating in seclusion, quietly sitting there, completely ignoring the events happening in the outside world.
In that instant, the golden lion felt incredible sorrow for the great cultivators who died. They came so powerfully, vowing to kill Shi Hao, yet in the end, that youngster -- Huang, didn't even open his eyes, to the extent where he wasn't even aware that they surrounded him domineeringly.
Just how pitiful was this? The foreign great army's deaths didn't even disturb Shi Hao, dying in vain here. Meanwhile, the other side was just calmly comprehending the dao.
When the two sides were compared like this, it really was too ridiculous!
The golden lion sighed. If those who died knew what happened, they might all break into sobs. Just what kind of damn result was this?!
Shi Hao wasn't as calm as the golden lion imagined. He looked peaceful, but he was actually in quite the danger. He was fighting within his mind, risking his life.
He looked quiet and calm, but that was because he was engrossed by the Blood Bodhi's imprints, immersed in the world formed from dao laws.
In this place, the golden temple was grand, only, the scripture storage pavilion and other buildings' golden tiles had blood trickling along their surface. There was also black mist surrounding this place, sinister winds roaring angrily.
Shi Hao was fighting intensely, struggling in the black mist.
The demonified bodhi tree, blood-soaked golden ancient temple; this place had long stopped being a pure land. Ever since he pushed open the scripture storage pavilion's gates, there was a group of golden body experts who rushed out, fighting a great battle against him.
Moreover, later on, the golden monks disappeared, instead, another group of monks that were pitch-black like ink appeared. They roared like demon kings, throwing themselves at him.
In addition, space became unstable, continuously cracking apart, a battlefield visible through every crack. It was as if one was witnessing the decisive battles between true immortals from the last great era.
Shi Hao read quite a few scriptures, but he had no way of unlocking them. He struggled frantically, each time he entered the scripture storage pavilion, there would always be all types of irregular scenes.
After experiencing a bloody battle, barely making it out alive, almost dying in his own spiritual world, he finally opened a single ancient scripture!
Solitary Buddha Eight Forms!
Just this name alone possessed a strange wave of secret force. This was the only scripture he could open.
Why was it this scripture that acknowledged him? Shi Hao didn't know.
Only when he read the scriptures did he understand. This was precisely the Ancient Buddha Eighteen Slaps, it was derived from these eight forms.
Previously, he had seen many stone engravings before the Reincarnation Pool's six gates, among them eight stone diagrams that formed an imprint. They drew his attention, but they lacked the core method. Now, he obtained it.
He knew why he could obtain it. He first experienced the eighteen slaps, then he saw the imprint forming signs. Only after grasping these things did it trigger this reward.
Only, when reading this scripture, Shi Hao was in extreme danger, almost dying.
It was because the originally yellow ancient text suddenly began to bleed, produce waves of black mist, inflicting terrifying damage onto him!
This was the power of the Blood Bodhi after it was corrupted!
Hong!
In the real world, there was a great shaking.
The golden lion was shocked, because it saw Shi Hao's body suddenly shake, blood flowing out from the corners of his lips. Then, there were eight large black hands that reached out from behind Shi Hao, striking him.
The Solitary Buddha Eight Forms post demonification, it appeared in the real world!
This was the danger Shi Hao faced. He faced great battles in his mind.
Meanwhile, in reality, he also formed imprints, precisely the Solitary Buddha Eight Forms, facing off against the corrupted eight large black hands, making this place shake greatly.
The golden lion was shocked. Why didn't this withered tree immediately kill Huang?
"It still has some buddhist nature!" The golden lion came to this conclusion.
It believed that after Shi Hao experienced the Reincarnation Pool's trial, he was able to comprehend scriptures here. Even though the bodhi tree had been corrupted, it still had some buddhist attributes, thus stopping the killing intent.
After an unknown amount of time passed, Shi Hao opened his eyes. His appearance was dignified, the eight large black hands behind him disappearing. He formed a divine law imprint, as if he was a war buddha!
Shi Hao found it hard to calm down. The Solitary Buddha Eight Forms was extremely strong, definitely not a normal skill. It was one of the ancient monk bloodline's dao protecting great methods, its offensive strength extremely great!
Now, he grasped it!

Chapter 1526 - Seizing the Initiative
The golden lion's expression was complicated, feeling envy and jealousy. It stared at Shi Hao, inwardly sighing.
It saw how dignified Shi Hao's appearance was. He was like the most powerful war buddha, behind him a light ring that released divine splendor. It immediately understood that he obtained the greatest inheritance.
The golden lion bloodline's relationship with the ancient monk bloodline was just too deep, previously buddhist disciples, so they naturally knew many secrets.
When it saw Shi Hao's state of absent-mindedness, it knew that this was the majestic sign of comprehending the Buddhist Ancient Exorcism Heavenly Art. It was just too shocking and frightening, something unique to the war buddha bloodline.
Pa!
Shi Hao gave it a slap, removing part of its restrictions, allowing it to speak.
"You obtained one of the war buddha clan's divine abilities?" The golden lion asked with a trembling voice.
The ancient monks were also divided into many clans, the war buddha bloodline was one of the extremely powerful clans, known for their prowess in battle, their magical force incomparably profound.
"What war buddha? I now obtained the Solitary Buddha Eight Forms." Shi Hao frowned, but he still said it, wishing to know more about this divine art from the golden lion.
"What?" The golden lion trembled inwardly, expression becoming more and more complicated.
The so-called Solitary Buddha Eight Forms was the war buddha bloodline's most powerful divine art. It had heard rumors that the Ancient Buddha Eighteen Slaps came precisely from it.
The so-called war buddha clan, most of them were originally not part of the ancient monk bloodline, an outside clan. They converted to buddhism, their highest level creatures were known as war buddhas.
That was why the war buddha clan were extremely terrifying, proficient in buddhist doctrine, but also in other ancient methods. All of it was combined together, creating an unmatched art.
"Solitary Buddha Eight Forms, this is the war buddha bloodline's most powerful technique." The golden lion said with a sigh, revealing the truth.
The reason why it had the words solitary buddha, was because the war buddhas were originally an outside clan, not restricted, able to wander the world under heaven, just like independent individuals.
That was why sometimes, they were called solitary buddhas.
Shi Hao learned these things in detail from the golden lion, his eyes widening. His mood improved greatly, this was an exceptional technique after all.
There were only eight pages to these scriptures, page one had a form or heart method, extremely simple, yet this was a powerful great method whose might dominated past generations.
"Yi, what happened? There is a bit of bloody mist in the distance?" Shi Hao asked with shock.
The bloody mist had pretty much scattered, but there was still a bit in the distant mountain region, the thin red color extremely striking.
The golden lion was immediately speechless, feeling even more grief for the great cultivators who died. Even now, the main instigator didn't even know that they died miserably, that tragically.
They mustered such great forces, rushing over powerfully, yet in the end, all of them were overlooked!
"Speak, what exactly happened?" Shi Hao asked.
The golden lion was extremely helpless, feeling a sense of powerlessness. Even though it was resentful, it still told him what happened.
"Ha ha ha…" Shi Hao roared with laughter. This really was beyond his expectations, actually so many foreign experts who died. It made him feel incomparably carefree inside.
Even though he knew that this withered tree was extremely sinister, cultivating in seclusion here without any killing intent would be extremely safe, he never expected it to kill this many enemies.
Shi Hao's laughter was extremely loud, extremely ear piercing to the golden lion. However, it couldn't do anything.
"My heart really is soothed. If they don't want to open their eyes, then all of them can just come." Shi Hao stood up, saying, "What a pity, all of them died. Otherwise, I really want to try some things out, test this Solitary Buddha Eight Forms power a bit."
"A hero without a chance to use his power…" Shi Hao sighed with sorrow, speaking extremely narcissistically.
These words really made the golden lion feel a bit irritated.
However, the current Shi Hao was powerful and confident, he really did wish to challenge the foreign experts. He now advanced into the Self Severing Realm, stabilizing this cultivation level.
Moreover, he didn't break through in a normal meaning, but rather directly rushed into the heavens, close to the mid stage of the Self Severing Realm!
His previous suppression resulted in a ferocious breakthrough. This time, his benefits really were great. Moreover, after experiencing the baptism of the Blood Bodhi's sharpening, he completely stabilized this cultivation realm.
Apart from this, he also obtained the Solitary Buddha Eight Forms technique. He didn't have just a normal type of confidence, but rather really wanted to slaughter his way out.
"I also want to enter seclusion, comprehend the dao here. Can you help me undo all of the seals?" The golden lion said. This time, it actually didn't want to run, because its eyes were red. After seeing Shi Hao's strength and astonishing gains, it also wanted to experience the Blood Bodhi's tempering, undo the inheritance seal within the tree.
"Sure!" Shi Hao agreed joyfully, but there was a strange radiance that flashed past his eyes.
Hong!
As a result, not long afterwards, the golden lion felt intense pain, coughing out large mouthfuls of blood. Moreover, there was a golden large hand that carried some blood that appeared behind him, brandishing, striking him until he almost broke apart, about to explode to pieces.
The golden lion immediately recovered its freedom. It tumbled out, blood continuously vomited from its mouth, extremely dispirited, lacking in vitality, suffering serious injuries.
Its face was both green and pale. It wanted to cultivate in seclusion like Huang, but it discovered that it wasn't enough. Even though it came into contact with the imprints within the tree body, it was stopped, unable to endure the power.
One had to understand that just now, even though that large golden hand was formidable, it definitely couldn't compare to the Solitary Buddha Eight Forms. However, it still couldn't handle it, unable to withstand it.
"Not everyone can cultivate in seclusion here." Shi Hao said calmly.
This time, the golden lion surprisingly became quiet, not retorting, nor did it reveal anger. It was reflecting, feeling that there really was quite a gap between Huang and itself.
"Go, let's walk around." Shi Hao patted the golden lion's head, treating it like a pet. Moreover, he sat on its back, riding it outwards.
The Fearless Lion bloodline, a race that had reigned powerful since ancient times, now ended up becoming the mount of another. Cold radiance filled this lion's pupils.
However, it endured it. It was seriously injured, and it had already temporarily bowed down, so it didn't want to act out now to avoid bringing about destruction onto itself.
"This is more like it." Shi Hao nodded, having it change its body to about the size of a zhang, more suitable for riding. They left the withered tree region.
It was because he couldn't always stay in Heavenly Beast Forest, he had to think of a way to leave. Now, he began to look for a chance.
Outside Heavenly Beast Forest, there were a few survivors, creatures who were able to leave the ancient tree alive. They were currently trembling, shivering all over as they explained what happened.
"That scene… is too terrifying. All those who attacked died, that withered ancient tree killed every single great cultivator!"
When these words sounded, there was immediately a great commotion, even the supreme beings who previously who sat in the sky opened their eyes one after another, greatly shaken up.
"What about Huang?" Someone asked.
"He was cultivating in seclusion… he didn't even wake up." One of the survivors said in shame, feeling like he couldn't meet their gazes at all.
An uproar broke out here. So many people died, so many powerful individuals sacrificed, yet not a hair on Huang was touched, moreover, from start to now, he didn't even wake up! This was too absurd!
Many people really wanted to directly curse out. This was just too infuriating, it was too much!
However, what could they say, were they supposed to complain about this? Thousands of people died, it was useless no matter what was said. It would only make overall morale drop even lower.
"Bastard, we should chop his corpse up, and then light sky lanterns!" Someone said viciously.
"Keep your eyes on him, I refuse to believe he won't leave that ancient forest. Let's see just how long he can hide for. Once he appears, we'll immediately surround and kill him!" An elder said furiously, roaring out like this. This was also a type of order.
Inside Heavenly Beast forest, Shi Hao sat on the golden lion's back, extremely carefree.
"Yi, there are cultivators over there. Let's head there." Shi Hao pointed.
Even though the golden lion was unwilling, after a low roar, it still turned into a streak of golden light, rushing forward.
Hu!
Crazy winds roared through the mountain forest. It was because this lion's speed was just too fast, wherever it passed, it was as if powerful winds swept past.
"En, Huang actually came out!"
"Haha, there really is no path into heaven for you to take, no gate into hell to enter!" A robust male laughed crazily, at the same time releasing killing intent, charging murderously.
There weren't that many in this group, only six or seven. The leader was that robust male, someone who had only recently entered the Self Release Realm. He believed he could use his higher cultivation realm to easily overwhelm and kill Huang.
However, this time, he ended up kicking a metal board. It was because Shi Hao already broke through, becoming a mid stage Self Severing Realm cultivator. Moreover, he had just obtained a divine art, precisely looking for people to practice on.
Hong!
They had just encountered each other, yet Shi Hao already used the first form of the Solitary Buddha Eight Forms. It smashed over viciously, golden light immediately surging.
The Solitary Buddha Eight Forms was extremely strange. Its main purpose was to seek out holes in the other party, and then endlessly magnify the faults to deliver a fatal blow.
This type of ancient method was extremely terrifying, once an opportunity was seized, the opponent would suffer fatal threat.
Sure enough, the robust male was careless, while Shi Hao faced him seriously. With this difference, the very first strike produced a result that exceeded everyone's predictions.
Shi Hao sat on the golden lion, his body greatly shaken, but he didn't fall. Meanwhile, that robust male released a furious roar, coughing out large mouthfuls of blood, entire arm twisted. His body flew outwards.
The group of people were all stupefied. This was but a Self Release Realm cultivator! However, he was blasted back by a twenty something year old kid, receiving serious injuries.
How could Huang be this terrifying? Not long ago, wasn't he being chased down by Self Release Realm cultivators? Now, he could actually fight back!
Honglong!
This mountain region swayed, accompanied by roars of anger and a rain of blood. The foreign expert was killed, dying here.
The effects of this were tremendous. The expressions of everyone else changed greatly, while Shi Hao felt extremely satisfied, a bit stirred up. His strength reached a new level, becoming more and more powerful!
"What? Huang came out, taking the initiative to attack, hunt down our side's cultivators?"
Outside Heavenly Beast Forest, when a group of experts received the report, they were all stupefied.
"Damn it all! This is too hateful! He actually dares attack us first! Surround and kill him now!" Someone roared furiously.

Chapter 1527 - None Before
The foreign creatures didn't know how powerful the target Shi Hao killed was yet, only knowing that there was blood where they fought, as well as hearing miserable screams. What they knew was limited.
Otherwise, they wouldn't be shouting like this, swarming into the forest depths like wasps.
It was because they were just too upset. For the sake of the rotten wooden chest, they mustered such great forces, yet in the end, a single Huang, due to all types of reasons, caused their losses to be extremely disastrous.
Now, even the supreme beings seated above couldn't sit still anymore, some of them already furious.
"Since he came out from that blasted place, then things are much easier. We'll carry out a comprehensive search, when we are sure of his position, we'll then send out true experts to kill him!"
There was an elder who remained extremely calm, ordering like this.
However, as troops after troops entered, just how many of them took this to heart? It was because the ones leading the troops were all great cultivators!
These people only had one thought on their minds, which was to immediately kill Huang, vent out a bit of resentment. Otherwise, they would feel just too terrible.
Thousands of creatures died just like that, just how disastrous was this? Just the thought alone made their hearts sore. These weren't normal people, but the experts of various clans, their elites!
The mountain forest was quiet, heavenly beasts roaming about from time to time, vicious and sinister. Even the foreign cultivators were hiding, not willing to clash with these ancient beasts.
It was because there was no need to. These heavenly beasts were extremely strong, their consciousness unclear, fighting against these types of giant beasts was meaningless, the gains wouldn't make up for the losses.
"He better not let me find him, or else I'm going to dice him up!" Someone said hatefully. This was a silver-haired male, middle-aged appearance, extremely heroic looking.
Many people felt admiration towards him, because they deeply understood how terrifying he was. He wasn't just a simple Self Release Realm cultivator, he was from a powerful king race.
The Mantis Centipede Clan was incredibly well-known among King Clans, their fighting prowess renown!
Their clan often had cultivators who entered the top twenty ranks of their respective generations.
If Shi Hao was here, he would definitely sense a familiar aura, because he had previously killed a young expert from this clan.
Back then, in Great Scarlet Sky Border, when he fought ten great experts alone, he had previously killed a mantis centipede. That youngster had never turned into human form, having mantis arms, centipede body, entire body silvery-white, fighting strength not ordinary.
Now, this silver-haired middle-aged man appeared, precisely his grandfather, a well-known expert from the clan. He had already entered the Self Release Realm.
"Heh heh, interesting, after so many people died, you all couldn't even deal with that brat? Now that this one has gone out, if his head can be obtained, it really would be a wonderful thing."
In another direction, a pale-faced, weak looking middle-aged man also said to himself, his smile a bit sinister.
"That's Earth Spirit Clan's senior!" Someone cried out in surprise.
Earth Spirit Clan, a place without sunshine year round, always remaining in darkness. There were some who said that they were originally a clan of yin spirits who seized living bodies.
This clan had strange skills. After remaining in the shadows year round, they were most suited for assassination. In the great battle of the last great era, this clan's matchless ancient ancestor previously killed many immortal dao experts.
"My objective is that rotten wooden chest, we must obtain it. As for Huang, if we see him, we'll just directly kill him, don't treat him like a big deal!" This was the order a youngster gave out.
Even though he looked like a young expert, this was still compared to the other Self Release Realm cultivators. He was also someone of this level, but was far younger than the others.
At the very least, his outer appearance only looked to be about thirty something.
As for his true age, no one knew. They all presumed he was a 'young and vigorous' heroic individual!
His clan was quite strange, a type of plant known as Nine Netherworlds Grass. They grew within a dark abyss in the foreign side.
"We found Huang!"
Right at this time, a cry sounded from the distance. There was a troop who ran into Huang.
A golden streak of lightning moved through the mountain forest, carrying berserk winds, sending rubble flying in all directions. Wherever it passed, large amounts of ancient trees would shake violently, leaves falling onto the ground.
This was definitely the Fearless Lion.
Its body was brilliant, as if cast from gold. Now, it was Shi Hao's mount, clenching its teeth, left with no choice but to listen to Shi Hao's orders, run through the forest.
"Are my eyes deceiving me? Isn't that the inheritor of the Fearless Lion bloodline? The one who retraced his ancestry is being rode on as Huang's mount?" Someone said in shock.
This really was shocking. One had to understand that this golden lion was extremely well-known in the other side, when had it ever become a mount? This bloodline exceeded many King Clan creatures.
However now, he lowered his prideful head, becoming Huang's mount, moving through the mountain forest.
Hong!
A great battle erupted. In a certain mountain ridge, Shi Hao encountered a troop, clashing intensely. Divine light rushed into the heavens, symbols swirling about, a life and death struggle carried out.
"Where is Huang? Hurry, kill him!" Great chaos erupted in the mountain forest, people moving about in every direction, swarming in that direction.
Unfortunately, when they closed in, the battle already ended. There was a lot of blood leftover here, but Huang was already nowhere to be seen.
"It was Purple Blossom Clan's troops who were here, led by a Self Release Realm senior. They were actually all killed!" Someone said with alarm.
"Impossible! How could Huang kill Self Release Realm great cultivators? When we were in Divine Medicine Mountain Range not too long ago, he was still being chased by great ones of this level!"
They found this hard to believe. How did Huang suddenly become this powerful, even able to kill Self Release Realm cultivators? Who could stop him then?
"Hurry and report this to the others, tell them to be careful. Huang's fighting strength doesn't match what we expected. He is a dangerous madman!" Someone said anxiously.
Hong!
In another mountain region, a great battle erupted. Huang rode on a golden lion's body, holding a bone blade, fighting a great battle against a foreign great cultivator. With a pu sound, the final strike hacked off that person's head, moreover destroying the primordial spirit!
Blood radiance overflowed into the heavens here, divine force surging.
At the most crucial moment, that great cultivator's body exploded, wishing to drag Shi Hao down with him. However, in the end, he was disappointed, not succeeding.
Huang's strength was completely different from what they thought. Many people's expressions became grave.
In Heavenly Beast Forest, the atmosphere immediately became tense. The insignificant brat in the foreign cultivators' eyes now became a dangerous individual.
Actually, Shi Hao didn't have it that easy. Even though he rose to the mid-stage of the Self Severing Realm, it wasn't like he imagined where he could easily cross levels and kill great cultivators.
It was because cultivation, as one went further, it became extremely hard to advance further. Unless one's talents were great enough, it couldn't be done.
Creatures who could bring their cultivation levels to the Self Release Realm, how many of them were mediocre? They were all geniuses among geniuses, all creatures who rose up from the masses.
That was why facing these powerful individuals, moreover wishing to do so through a great cultivation realm difference, was definitely not easy.
"Huang, why is he this strong? He is only at the mid stage of the Self Severing Realm, yet he can kill Self Release Realm great experts!" Someone said with a sigh. When he learned of the situation, he couldn't help but feel great shock.
Finally, Shi Hao was in a bit of trouble. It was because he was surrounded by everyone.
A silver-haired male stood there, two snow-white silver blades in hand. Cold light shone in all directions, killing intent surging, not hiding his hostility at all.
"Mantis Centipede's people!" Shi Hao stared at him. His Heavenly Eyes shone, seeing his true form.
"Just hand over your life!" The silver-haired middle-aged man roared. He brandished the blades in his hands, rushing forward murderously.
This scene was extremely frightening. The two blades cut through the void, severing space. Heaven and earth were directly torn apart, great dao laws rumbling with noise, accompanied by heaven and earth order.
The power of those silver blades was unimaginable!
This was a formidable expert from a king race. When the surrounding creatures saw this, they all shivered with fear, moved by his appearance.
"Mantis Centipede Clan senior is indeed terrifying after all, worthy of being a well-known war clan among King Clans, extremely powerful!" The people in the distance sighed in admiration.
Unfortunately, this type of admiration didn't continue for long. Shi Hao really was angry, using great divine abilities, searching for holes through the Solitary Buddha Eight Forms, continuously striking out.
Hong!
In the end, the silver-haired individual was directly beaten to death. He turned into bloody mist, some bone fragments flying about, falling here.
"How could this be?" Hidden Feather Clan's people just happened to see these things. When they saw this scene, they were all shaken up.
"He is only twenty something years of age, yet he can kill Self Release Realm great cultivators! Once he reaches our age, just how great will his cultivation level be?" The faces of Hidden Feather Clan's experts were ashen.
A twenty-something year old Self Severing Realm cultivator, this really was rarely seen since ancient times. This was especially the case when he was still this strong, able to cross realms and kill great cultivators.
In some foreign individuals' opinions, this was extremely abnormal. If Huang was given a few hundred years, tens of thousands of years of time, just how strong would he become? This was simply unimaginable.
"A twenty something year old Self Severing Realm individual, there should be none before him, right?" Someone suspected.
It was because they didn't know if this type of person existed in the last great era, but at the very least, it was too rarely seen in this great era. Even if there were any, they would be close to thirty years of age.
"His talent is just too heaven-defying! We have to quickly kill him!" Hidden Feather Clan's expert released a strange signal, calling other experts to surround and destroy Shi Hao.
Unfortunately, he thought that he had already hid far enough, hiding well enough, but he had long been noticed by Shi Hao.
Hong!
A golden lion roared, trampling the mountain region until it rumbled with noise. It already rushed over like golden lightning, like a mountain flood, making the earth quake and mountains shake.
"Kill!"
Hidden Feather Clan's expert braced himself, going all out against Shi Hao.
Unfortunately, after a great battle, his body was pierced by a streak of electrical radiance, charred black, losing his life.
…
"Not good, Huang's strength is extremely great, able to kill Self Release Realm great cultivators! Many people had already died miserably under his hands!"
News finally fully spread, moreover transmitting outside Heavenly Beast Forest.
This left the leading figures shaken, their expressions all falling ashen. This was just a youngster, yet they couldn't capture him, moreover paying the price of blood. This really was aggravating.
At the same time, a few people developed a chill within their hearts. He was just a twenty something year old youngster, yet he already had such horrifying strength. This really made one feel it was a bit inconceivable.
"Is he really less than thirty years of age?" Another expert questioned. It was because it really was impossible to accept.
"We are already sure of this. He is twenty-six or seven at most, to the extent where he might even be less than twenty-five years of age!" Someone reported.
"This is too freakish! We have to kill him, or else there will definitely be a great disaster in the future. To have such accomplishments at this age, he has almost reached an unprecedented level!" A leading figure said with a sunken voice.
Right at this time, another person came to report that there were great cultivators who were ambushed again and again, some people dying.
Hong!
At that moment, in the sky dome above, one of the supreme beings who had remained seated this entire time moved. Chaotic energy surged as he landed on the great earth. It was as if a sea of stars was trembling!
"Senior!" Many people were startled.
"Are you certain that he is only twenty something years of age, yet can already kill Self Release Realm great cultivators?" This supreme being's expression was serious, walking out from the primal chaos.
"Yes!"
When he obtained this definite reply, this supreme being's figure disappeared with a flash, directly entering Heavenly Beast Forest, slaughtering his way in.

Chapter 1528 - Supreme Being Sets Out
Everyone was shocked, feeling deeply shaken. A supreme being finally moved!
When a creature of this level took action, Huang didn't have any chance left to live! Even the world itself lost color, sun and moon trembling, who could stop this type of power? Huang was definitely going to be killed.
It was because compared to a supreme being, Self Release Realm was equivalent to an ant!
It was completely impossible to compare them, the difference too great. Supreme beings were at the peak of the mortal world, at the very summit of mortal dao realm.
Only, everyone was worried. This was Heavenly Beast Forest, there were too many things that couldn't be explained. It was rumored that even a supreme being might suffer a disaster upon entering.
This was also the reason why these supreme beings all remained quiet after entering, quietly seated in the heavens above.
Heavenly Beast Forest, this place was known to be a cage. When supreme beings entered, they might come into contact with some restrictions, be trapped inside, unable to struggle free.
Of course, if they were careful enough, not activating those ancient formations, they could move safely through this place.
"I hope nothing bad happens to great one!" Someone said softly, quietly praying.
Heavenly Beast Forest was too strange. If it really ended up trapping a supreme being, then it would definitely be grievous news.
All of them knew that the reason why the supreme being was entering was completely because of Huang's extraordinary performance. Now, he didn't hesitate to pay the cost, wishing to immediately kill him.
"Wu, I understand, senior is worried that he might have seen an immortal king path!" Someone said with a sigh.
Otherwise, how could things have become like this?
Huang's display was too astonishing. He was only twenty something, yet he could already kill Self Release Realm great cultivators. Just how many people from the past until now could do this?
"I hope senior's trip goes smoothly!" Someone prayed.
"Spirit of our ancestors, please protect my clan's heavenly fate!" A few people muttered to themselves.
In the depths of Heavenly Beast Forest, there was a reeking of blood everywhere.
Suddenly, when the golden lion he rode on rushed into a mountain valley, a streak of sword light rushed at the back of his head. It was just too fast; someone was ambushing him!
Earth Spirit Clan's great cultivator took action. This clan usually stayed in places without sunlight, their faces pale white like ghosts.
Meanwhile, because they liked darkness, their temperaments were also cold and gloomy, enjoying surprise attacks. They were one of the foreign side's natural assassination clans, back then, this clan's ancestor had killed many immortal dao experts.
Hair fell from Shi Hao's head, cut by order natural laws, constructed by sword radiance and symbols, extremely powerful.
Shi Hao hid himself to avoid the strike of inevitable death. Only, a bit of blood shot out from his shoulder, brushed by the order sword light.
"Kill!"
Shi Hao roared, locking onto this person, fighting an intense battle against him.
Pu!
In the end, the Earth Spirit Clan's expert died, killed here.
"We're leaving!" In the distance, a comparatively younger great cultivator immediately turned around to leave upon seeing this scene. Not only did he not provide reinforcements, now, he even more so tried to run.
Those who followed him were stunned, couldn't help but curse silently.
It was because not long ago, this young cultivator was still speaking viciously, stating that Huang was nothing, that if they ran into him, then they'll just kill him, that their main objective was the rotten wooden chest.
However now, that great one actually… ran!
This younger great cultivator really was scared. The other side was much younger than himself, yet ended up continuously killing Self Release Realm cultivators. He definitely didn't want to throw his life away.
"Where do you think you're going?" Shi Hao saw him, naturally chasing him down.
Moreover, at this time, he sealed the lion, storing it in a spatial magical artifact.
It was because when chasing down enemies, even though the golden lion had extreme speed, never stopping, its speed was slower than his.
Pu!
In the end, this young great one was being chased. They fought a bloody battle, but his head was still removed, leaving his body. His face carried unwillingness, shock, completely pale. He was killed, primordial spirit scattered.
"Not good!"
Right at this time, Shi Hao suddenly felt his scalp turn numb, entire body going taut, as if there was a terrifying prehistoric beast that locked onto him. Chills immediately ran through his body.
He turned around to run, not even wasting a second, quickly rushing towards the place where the withered tree was.
This was a type of instinct. There was clearly something that was about to happen, unfavorable for him. If he didn't avoid it, he would most likely die.
This was the difference between a heaven warping genius and a normal person. All those who were similar to Shi Hao would develop this type of divine awareness, before danger arrived, they would always sense something.
He knew that a calamity was looming, that he might have to run again.
Originally, his plan was to continuously kill some more enemies, and then hide back into Reincarnation Pool or near the ancient tree. He never expected danger to arrive so quickly.
Fortunately, Shi Hao still had some propriety, not going too far from where the ancient tree was, only wandering relatively close to it.
That was why he immediately ran back, sitting under the tree, carefully observing the surrounding activity.
It really had been too dangerous this time. He felt as if a terrifying ancient beast was nearby, as if it came from the primal chaos of the world's creation, possessing unmatched power.
The surroundings were quiet, lacking all sound. It was as if they immediately arrived at the limits of the world.
This was an extremely suffocating feeling. Shi Hao didn't move at all, waiting just like that, looking if that terrifying existence would descend.
In reality, in the distant mountain range, there really was a creature approaching. When this person first began walking, his steps were accompanied by a starry river, time fragments winding about beneath his feet, as if he was an unmatched monarch.
Only, eventually, his footsteps slowed, no longer a single step traveling hundreds of thousands of li, instead becoming quiet, gradually becoming like those of an ordinary person's.
It was because he was quite apprehensive. This ancient land was comparatively alright for Self Release Realm cultivators, but for a creature on his level, there were great limitations.
Otherwise, he could reach his destination with a single step, why would he need to be this careful? It was to the extent where a single thought was enough to erase all types of vitality in Heavenly Beast Forest!
Not even Huang could escape this will.
However, he couldn't use unmatched power, had to hold himself back. Moreover, he needed to constantly keep an eye on this place, locate the restricted areas, or else he would definitely bring disaster onto himself!
One had to understand that back then, even legendary immortal daoist level individuals had died here.
Finally, he arrived, approaching a quiet mountain ridge in this forest.
There was an ancient tree that was pitch-black like ink, completely lacking leaves. It towered into the clouds, extremely powerful, moreover surrounded by mysterious mist.
Under that tree, within the haziness, there was a youngster seated there. He was extremely careful and prudent, on guard here.
The individual who approached was known as a supreme being, naturally possessing exceptional might. He could seize the moon with a raise of his hand, strength terrifying to the extreme.
Only, right now, he became more and more serious, not moving rashly, only staring at the ancient tree.
"Back then, this mountain region didn't have this kind of tree. It grew later on from the blood swamp." He said quietly to himself.
It was because the foreign people had come here before, understanding this place. In the past, this was only a blood-colored swamp.
The blood-soaked bodhi tree had previously been buried in the swamp. Now, it rushed out, was it going to extend its roots and germinate? If it seized life force, just what will it grow into? This supreme being was staring at it, not moving at all.
Right at this time, the feeling that made Shi Hao's fine hairs all stand on end disappeared, the goosebumps vanishing. He felt extremely strange. Could it be that this unknown existence left, not coming here?
However, when he raised his head and looked into the distance, he was shaken, feeling horrified.
It was because in the distance, by the entrance of the mountain ridge, there was a figure quietly standing there, looking in this direction like a statue.
How long was this person here for? He didn't notice him at all!
Moreover, why did his feeling of unease disappear? He couldn't sense any danger anymore!
Shi Hao was shaken. This was definitely not normal. That creature was clearly close, already within his line of sight, so why did that alarming feeling disappear?
This could only say that this existence was extremely terrifying. When it stood there, it was as if it disappeared from past and present, impossible to perceive.
"Supreme being!" Shi Hao came to this type of conclusion.
It was because that person was too terrifying, impossible to estimate, to see through. He was deep and immeasurable.
In that place, primal chaos energy pervaded the air. It was extremely thick, impossible for him to see that creature's true appearance. Only, when those eyes opened and closed, it was as if a blazing sun was surging.
Immediately afterwards, that figure disappeared, only some primal chaos mist left where it stood that would scatter soon.
It was as if that person never appeared, too mysterious, at the same time extremely terrifying. Shi Hao was worried, feeling like this place might not be enough to stop him.
This place was completely silent.
After that person disappeared, he didn't appear again.
However, Shi Hao knew that if the other side came for him, there was no way he would truly leave. A supreme being personally appeared, so how could it leave without accomplishing anything?!
Suddenly, Shi Hao sensed a familiar voice, sounding right by his ears.
"Let's leave, return to Imperial Pass."
It was extremely quiet, but extremely real.
Shi Hao was shocked, almost crying out. It was because this was Great Elder Meng Tianzheng's voice.
"Senior, is it really you who came? There is a supreme being here, you have to be careful!" Shi Hao hurriedly secretly replied.
"It's fine, if he takes action, I'll just kill him!" Great Elder Meng Tianzheng's words were extremely simple and direct.

Chapter 1529 - Great Elder
Shi Hao was moved. Great Eder personally came, immediately making him relax quite a bit. He was now sure that no matter how powerful the foreign experts were, he could still peacefully return.
"You don't need to immediately get up, wait for a chance, and then pretend to leave. If that person takes action, I will immediately kill him, get rid of that supreme expert!" Great Elder's voice sounded.
His voice was resolute, also confident, even more so possessing an intimidating power. Shi Hao felt more and more at ease, because there was a powerful confidence surging within him now.
Shi Hao suspected that Great Elder wanted to use him as bait to make that person get closer, and then take action ruthlessly, execute him!
The ambush of a supreme being was definitely world-shaking. Ghosts would weep and deities howl, a single strike making the stars move in reverse, all sides collapse!
When one cultivated to that level, if one really wanted to launch a hidden attack, it would simply be impossible to deal with in the mortal realm!
That was why Shi Hao was moved, perhaps he really was going to witness a supreme being fall. However, he looked calm on the surface, nothing could be detected no matter how one examined him.
Shi Hao sat here for a long time, waiting until the outside world became more and more peaceful, and only then did he get up, pretending to want to leave this place.
"Can a supreme being really be killed?" He was excited, hard to calm himself down. Those people were known to be unmatched in the mortal realm, standing at the very peak.
Shi Hao left the tree trunk step by step, walking out.
As for the golden lion, it had long been stored in a spatial magical artifact, not allowed out. He didn't want any accidents to happen because of it.
Shi Hao went further and further, finally about to leave this place. Even so, the ancient tree was massive, branches reaching very far, covering heaven and earth, flickering with dark light.
However, when Shi Hao was about to leave this region, for some reason, his mind went ice-cold, developing a heart shaking feeling, his soul trembling slightly.
Why was this? He was a bit confused. Great Elder came, could it be that he still couldn't stop the enemy, that he would still die?
Shi Hao trusted this type of intuition. This wasn't something he cultivated, it wasn't related to dao skills, but rather a type of instinct. However, this type of spiritual awareness wasn't something every expert could obtain.
It could be said that some people's spiritual awareness were exceptionally sharp, while Shi Hao was one of the best at this.
He sensed something beforehand, feeling like there was some kind of danger approaching!
"Great Elder, you have to be careful, I fear that this supreme being might not be simple. You have to be on guard!" Shi Hao transmitted sound, still in the same direction from before.
"It's fine, I have already completed my preparations. If he comes close, I will have a favorable position, perfect for delivering a fatal blow, perhaps even kill a supreme being!" Great Elder said.
Shi Hao inwardly nodded. Great Elder was a steady person. He had lived for an endless amount of time, if he wasn't confident, he wouldn't speak like this.
He moved forward again, but after he took a few steps, he felt more and more uneasy, just feeling like there was something bad about to happen, as if doomsday was going to descend!
Shi Hao shivered inwardly, finding this extremely hard to shake off. This was a cultivator's most basic instinctual divine awareness!
Why did he feel like this? He wanted to understand.
At the same time, he felt several palaces appear within his five viscera, vaguely releasing scripture sounds. In addition, there was a little figure who appeared, suddenly opening its eyes, looking towards his core.
Within Shi Hao's inner world, he broke into a cold shiver.
It was one of the creatures seated in his three great dao flowers, the one who seemed to live in the past.
This time, that creature didn't sit in the great dao flower above his head, but rather lingered about between his five viscera. The five palaces shone, flowing with great dao aura.
"Why? Is this a sign?" Shi Hao asked himself. Chills were running through his mind.
That little figure should also be considered him, was this some type of warning?
Shi Hao's expression changed. He transmitted sound, saying, "Senior, I've suddenly thought of a more dependable method that can definitely kill that supreme being."
"Oh? Let's hear it."
"I'll back up first, and then I'll tell you in a bit." Shi Hao calmly backed up, returning to that ancient tree, directly sitting down.
"Alright, tell me." Great Elder Meng Tianzheng's voice sounded, asking Shi Hao.
Only, this time, Shi Hao didn't say anything, quietly sitting there, not moving. Meanwhile, Great Elder spoke up several times, but he didn't give any reply.
"Heh heh, not bad." In the distance, a figure appeared, shrouded in mist, indistinct. He stood in primal chaos, looking in this direction.
At this moment, Shi Hao's fine hairs stood on end. It was precisely the figure he saw before, the foreign supreme being!
"Even though it is in part because of the ancient tree, isolating too many divine abilities of the outside world, you could still remain clear-headed under my 'Mind Chaos Art', you can be considered quite special. Under the supreme being level, not many can accomplish this."
That person was praising Shi Hao's divine awareness.
At this moment, Shi Hao felt a chill run from head to toe, deeply shaken. He broke out into cold sweat, feeling great lingering fear.
That figure was the foreign supreme being, there was never a Great Elder here. The so-called voices were all fake!
Just now, if he became clear-headed a bit later, he would have completely left the ancient tree's range. He was that close to leaving the edge.
That type of consequences, just the thought alone made one feel terrified, cold sweat pouring from his body.
"It wasn't Great Elder, but just now, it really was extremely similar." Shi Hao wiped away his sweat, frowning. That type of aura was too similar, this supreme being could actually imitate it.
However, when he recalled the name of the divine ability the other party mentioned -- Mind Chaos Art, he calmed himself down again. This was definitely a great method that interfered with one's mind. Him almost falling into the trap was understandable.
After all, this was a supreme being, an existence who rarely suffered defeat!
"You are a glorious supreme being, known to be unmatched in the human dao, yet you are actually using mind disturbing methods against a younger generation, really aren't that heroic and dignified." Shi Hao said.
Even when he faced a supreme being, he still dared speak out, not feeling fear.
"What heroicness or honor is there to talk about in killing methods?" That blurry figure said with a smile, not minding at all.
"Sigh, it really would be great if Senior Meng was here." Shi Hao said with a sigh, but he felt like it wasn't that likely. Right now, he completely recovered his mind.
"Does Meng Tianzheng dare come? Even if he does, so what? He will most likely fall here!" That supreme being said coldly.
With a single thought, great stars swirled in the skies, rumbling with noise. Meanwhile, sweet spring water surged beneath his feet, golden lotuses growing all around him, accompanied by natural law force.
This was the irregular scene displayed from a single thought from him. When he spoke out, this type of extraordinary scene immediately appeared, truly intimidating!
"Is that so?" With a cold snort, a dazzling divine sword tore through Heavenly Beast Forest's skies, directly hacking at the foreign supreme being.
This was just too sudden, golden radiance brilliant. A young person appeared, his long black hair scattering down, in his right hand a sword art, producing an immortal sword, piercing towards the foreign supreme being.
That wave of power was too powerful, shaking up Heavenly Beast Forest.
In that instant, his aura erupted, golden light dazzling the heavenly dome, about to unleash a slaughter.
This was, without a doubt, a supreme being, powerful and incomparable, shaking the heavens above and earth below.
Pu!
That foreign supreme being was injured. When drops of blood shot out from his ribs, the endless mountain forest was directly destroyed, the great earth breaking apart, magma surging.
This was too horrifying. After he was injured, essence blood flowed in reverse. Only a few drops fell, yet it immediately obliterated eighty or ninety thousand li of mountains and rivers, just too horrifying.
When just a single drop of this type of blood fell, it would be enough to crush a great star!
"Meng Tianzheng, you really dared come!" The foreign supreme being said coldly.
It had to be said that he was steady and imposing, worthy of admiration. He clearly suffered this sword art's strike, yet he still remained calm and cold, not panicking.
"Great Elder?!"
Shi Hao was shocked. Great Elder finally came!
Moreover, he took action at the crucial moment.
Only, Shi Hao was extremely shocked, because the current Great Elder was completely different from before. He was really young, surging with life force.
This was a youngster, one who looked twenty something, in his golden years. His blood energy was incredibly powerful. Golden armor covered his body, releasing brilliance, even leaving the sun shaken!
This wasn't a misperception, but rather real!
The current Great Elder had long black hair scattering down, eyes like cold lightning, heroic face as if sculpted by a blade. His slender body was strong, dressed in golden armor, looking like a descending war immortal!
His blood energy rippled outwards, affecting the world.
Outside, great stars shook. As for the sun and moon, they even more so resonated, trembling slightly.
If not for the ancient tree in the way, Shi Hao believed that he would definitely be in terrible condition right now, unable to endure the incomparable pressure.
"Great Elder at his most powerful state?" How could Shi Hao not be shocked?
This young Meng Tianzheng was something he had never seen before. He had tremendous power, the vitality of youth, and blood energy that surged like an ocean wave, completely immeasurable.
Back then, when he fought a great battle with Immortal Wang, Great Elder didn't even display this type of appearance!
And now, when facing foreign enemies, he finally undid the seal, using the unmatched power of his golden years!
"So this the power of a supreme being? It seems like even after all these years, not many people have truly witnessed it!" Shi Hao sighed with admiration.

Chapter 1530 - Battle Between Supreme Beings
"Meng Tianzheng, you actually dared come here? You are digging your own grave!" The foreign supreme being shouted.
"It's hard to say whether I'll die or not. However, what I know for sure is that your life can't be saved!" The Meng Tianzheng in his golden years spoke. He was surging with heroicness, as if he was a war immortal!
He possessed incomparable power. When his eyes opened and closed, space was torn, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled. Many stars in the heavens above resonated.
"Come!" Meng Tianzheng beckoned towards Shi Hao, about to bring him away from this place.
When Shi Hao saw this, he quickly arrived. He didn't feel any more hesitation, taking the initiative to leave the ancient tree's range.
It was because this time, his instincts sensed a calm and vigorous feeling, as well as blazing ferocious energy instead of the ice-cold and frightening feeling from just now.
He knew that this person really was Great Elder, no longer a fake!
"If you keep him with you, it will be hard for you to protect yourself!" The foreign supreme being took action. With a raise of his hand, brilliant multicolored light shot out, making the world crack apart.
Hong!
In outer space, a few stars exploded. Divine light rushed into the heavens, the scene terrifying.
Qiang!
Meng Tianzheng used a sword art, sweeping through this world. The sword radiance was just too terrifying, brilliant to the point where one couldn't open their eyes. Sword radiance hacked through mountains and rivers, even more so slashing into outer space!
"Who is that?" Outside Heavenly Beast Forest, everyone was shocked. That sword radiance was just too terrifying, rushing into outer space, destroying some stars.
Just how long was this sword radiance?
Chi!
Right at this time, several supreme beings outside Heavenly Beast Forest moved!
"He came!"
"Kill!"
These were the voices of different people. They immediately disappeared from the sky dome, one of them entering Heavenly Beast Forest.
The other three appeared in different positions outside Heavenly Beast Forest, trying to surround this place.
They didn't dare all go in, because it was extremely dangerous inside. Sending two people in was already quite risky.
Chi!
Shi Hao rushed out from the bloody swamp, arriving outside.
A great dao path immediately appeared below Great Elder's feet. Moreover, with a raise of his hand, he was directly brought over, ensuring his safety.
"By protecting him like this, you yourself will die!" The foreign supreme being said, roaring out. Heaven and earth swayed, mountains collapsed. A giant hand reached out, slapping forward.
At this moment, great stars were endless, primal chaos erupting. An aura of destruction engulfed the heavens above and earth below.
He wanted to directly shake Shi Hao to death, destroy him. Meanwhile, if Great Elder wanted to save him, he had to divert some of his attention.
Chi!
With a single thought, Great Elder brought Shi Hao over, collecting him within one of his own heavenly passages, protecting him like this.
"It's useless, you should know that we were waiting for you to come!" The foreign supreme beings said coldly.
With a qiang noise, a blood-colored war halberd appeared in his hands. It directly crushed the void, slicing towards Meng Tianzheng.
Pu!
At this moment, the world became dark.
It was because when this great halberd appeared, the sun in the sky exploded to pieces, immediately being destroyed.
This place was vast, with many suns suspended above, but this place only had one, crushed by the aura released by the great halberd.
The power of a supreme being could not be surmised.
Zheng!
With a flick of Great Elder's finger, sword radiance shot out, extending hundreds of thousands of li, simply about to completely hack through the heavens above and earth below, smashing into that blood-colored war halberd.
Pu!
This foreign supreme being coughed out blood. It was because he was previously already seriously injured by Great Elder's sword. Even though only a few drops of blood fell, the sword had long stabbed into his bones.
This time, the blood he coughed out flowed in reverse, in the end, only a single drop flew out, rushing into outer space, immediately blasting through many stars, making them explode.
Outside Heavenly Beast Forest, everyone was shocked upon seeing this, their bodies going cold. Was this a battle between supreme beings? They felt great fear!
Great Elder took the initiative to back up, rush out from Heavenly Beast Forest.
It was because the foreign side had several supreme beings here, long setting up a death trap for him, just waiting for him to come.
Both sides were clearly aware of what was going on.
Only, Great Elder's steps seemed a bit slow, not fast enough. The foreign supreme being who was rushing over from behind was also like this, choosing his steps carefully.
It was to the extent where in some regions, they wouldn't attack at all, restraining their auras. They wouldn't split open the void.
It was because there were ancient immortal dao formations here, having many restrictions. Once they were activated, it would produce a disaster, imprison them, become supreme being prisons.
"Meng Tianzheng, since you came, then why don't you just come over so we can chat a bit." Someone shouted from the back.
This was another foreign supreme being. Another person was closing in.
Hong!
Suddenly, Meng Tianzheng activated sword energy, hacking in a certain direction in the mountain forest. That place immediately broke apart, moreover, immortal dao radiance rushed into the heavens.
The foreign supreme being's expression changed, quickly backing up, moving out of the way.
"You're mad! Are you trying to take us all down with you, for all of us to be trapped here?" A supreme being shouted.
Meng Tianzheng didn't say anything, continuing forward.
"Be careful. His achievements in formations are exceptionally profound. He has avoided and passed the dangerous area up ahead!" The supreme being who was previously injured, holding a blood-colored war halberd reminded.
Hong!
Suddenly, an ocean-like wave of aura covered heaven and earth as it swept over.
Shi Hao saw someone take action from behind, in his hands a black-colored war spear. It stabbed over, transcending time and space, omnipotent, nothing it couldn't overcome, directly pressing forward.
With a honglong sound, heaven and earth collapsed.
That black war spear was too terrifying, cleaving the sky dome in two. The spearpoint pierced through the sky dome, an expanse of stars in outer space becoming dim.
Chaotic energy surged, wrapping around the black war spear. It was hard to assess just how powerful it was.
Shi Hao discovered that even after Great Elder condensed a magical imprint, striking the black war spear, there was still a wave of power rushing over.
If it was Great Elder himself, there would be no problem at all, these were just normal supreme being fluctuations, it could be endured. However, Shi Hao who was sealed within a heavenly passage wouldn't be able to handle it.
It was because the supreme being level ripples would spread into his heavenly passages!
Chi!
Immediately afterwards, Shi Hao sensed a hazy sphere of light wrap around him. Moreover, he left Meng Tianzheng's heavenly passage, appearing before him. Then, they moved together, wishing to escape from this place.
"Meng Tianzheng, hand over your life!"
Someone shouted from the back. It was a supreme being, he caught up.
The ones coming weren't too fast, because they had to take the forest's restrictions into consideration.
At the same time, within the depths of Heavenly Beast Forest, not far from Reincarnation Pool, there was an ancient beast that was reviving. Its eyelids jumped, about to open.
"Not good, it's waking up!"
As supreme beings, their reactions and divine senses were extremely sharp. They naturally immediately noticed this change.
"Go!"
Great Elder released a soft shout. Golden radiance surged beneath his feet, a great path piercing through the ancient forest, rushing towards the outside world.
"Yi, you are actually advancing like this, moreover having some understanding of the restrictions in this place!" A foreign supreme being said, clearly shocked.
"That ancient beast belongs to the Nine Heavens Ten Earths, they definitely have some type of connection with this place." The supreme being who held the black war spear said coldly.
Meng Tianzheng successfully broke out of the enclosure, rushing out from Heavenly Beast Forest.
The expressions of the other two were ugly. They were a bit slow, unable to move as they wished. It was because a bit of carelessness would result in great trouble.
Qiang!
However, outside Heavenly Beast Forest, what awaited Great Elder was an ice-cold long blade. Hazy blue radiance flickered about, tearing apart the sky dome, terrifying beyond compare, hacking towards Great Elder.
Outside, there were supreme beings who were watching over this place, currently waiting for him to come out.
At the same time, the two supreme beings in the other direction immediately appeared, rushing murderously towards Great Elder Meng Tianzheng.
This time, there were five supreme beings who came in total. Two of them entered Heavenly Beast Forest, the other three remaining outside. The situation was extremely bad.
Dang!
Great Elder struck out, his palms and fingers brilliant, erupting with heaven overflowing might. The long blade was blasted aside, and then he directly slaughtered his way forward.
Even after having to deal with one of the two other supreme beings' ambush, he still chose to run, escape in Imperial Pass' direction.
"Meng Tianzheng, you won't be able to escape!"
A great roar sounded from the back. The two individuals in Heavenly Beast Forest were formidable after all, extremely heaven-defying. They also struggled free from the ancient land, slaughtering their way out, not being trapped inside.
Things were far from reassuring. Five supreme experts surrounded them, chasing after Meng Tianzheng.
Hou!
In Heavenly Beast Forest, a beast shook all directions.
However, what was shocking was that all types of star fragments appeared in the sky. They gathered together once more, forming a heavenly sun.
This scene was extremely shocking. This roar wasn't one of destruction, but rather one that restored the shattered sun, moon, and others.
However, Great Elder didn't have the attention to spare for these things.
He took a step out, making stars move in reverse, mountains and rivers lose color. He immediately traveled hundreds of thousands of li. Then, a second step was taken, long taking him a million li out.
Only, the enemy was similarly powerful beyond compare, also supreme beings, how could their speeds be slow? They all chased after him.
When Great Elder continuously took steps, traveling eight million li out, he finally saw the great desert. It was precisely Desolate Border battlefield.
"This is your place of burial!" A foreign supreme being said.
"Now that we are far from Heavenly Beast Forest, we can finally move as we want!" The one who held the black war spear said coldly.
At the same time, Great Elder also stopped. He wore golden armor that flickered with sky filling blazing radiance. His figure was tall and strong, face incomparably heroic.
This was the past Meng Tianzheng in his golden years. He didn't continue running, instead saying, "I also wanted to ask for some pointers. If a person or two doesn't die, how can this be considered a battle between supreme beings?!"

Chapter 1531 - Supreme Being Killed
"Who will you be able to kill?!" A cold voice sounded. They were all at this level, supreme beings with strength at the absolute peak, all of them also having absolute confidence.
Qiang!
There was another who was even more direct. The black great spear pointed forward, cold aura surging, great dao laws rippling out.
One man, one spear stood there, actually releasing world establishing aura, making the boundless great desert tremble, primal chaos surge. It was truly terrifying.
They were already at this level, there really wasn't any bravery to speak of, because they were all creatures who reached the peak of mortal dao, standing at the same high point, overlooking the human world.
Great Elder remained fearless, still calm.
Immediately afterwards, he erupted, his aura continuously surging, golden battle clothes shining, as if raging flames rushed into the heavens. Golden light engulfed the heavens above and earth below.
How terrifying were battles between supreme beings? It exceeded the imagination of normal people, stars falling from outer space at every turn, endless land destroyed.
Chi!
The foreign supreme being with the black war spear in hand released a great roar. Heaven and earth split, the spearpoint of his weapon erupting with dark light. He took action first, piercing forward.
This spear undoubtedly contained exceptional power. It rushed towards Great Elder's chest, crushing the void until it exploded to pieces, the sun and moon losing light, chaotic energy surging.
Hong!
At this moment, Great Elder moved, brandishing the item in his hands -- the rotten wooden chest. It directly smashed into the spearpoint. A world-shaking noise immediately sounded!
Sand waves reached into the skies, golden sand everywhere in this ancient battlefield, stretching as far as the eye could see. Many powerful individuals had fought here throughout the endless years.
Now, the sand rose like a sea, sweeping towards the heavens. There were even more granules that rushed into outer space, hitting some asteroids and meteorites, immediately making them go dim!
This scene was extremely shocking. The effects of a supreme being battle were too far reaching and frightening!
Surprisingly, after this strike, everything quickly calmed down again. The tens of millions of li of great desert became almost deathly still.
It was still the same few here, confronting each other, watching each other carefully.
Great Elder Meng Tianzheng stood precisely in the middle, while those five supreme beings stared at him, looking at the wooden chest in his hands.
"So that's the thing? It is extraordinary after all!" The one who held the blood-colored great halberd, the supreme being who first exchanged attacks with Great Elder said.
The chest was extremely old looking, but it was surrounded by hazy radiance. Meanwhile, just now, it could actually face a supreme being artifact head-on without suffering the slightest bit of damage, this alone enough to prove its value.
Not even someone as powerful as a supreme being could put it away, only able to carry it in his hand. However, right now, it didn't become Great Elder's burden, instead becoming quite a good weapon.
Using it like a shield wasn't a bad choice!
Shi Hao became nervous, worrying for Great Elder, fearing that something unexpected might happen, that something dangerous would occur.
It was because it was just as the foreign creatures said. They were all supreme beings, so who was weaker than who? They were all at the peak of mortal dao.
"Kill him and seize the chest!"
On the other side, someone said coldly.
The strike just now could be considered another test. By now, both sides knew what was going on, so when they took action again, it would definitely be a struggle of life and death, going all out.
"Kill!"
A great battle finally erupted. In that instant, it was as if a primal chaos vicious beast roared, reviving from when the heavens were first opened, about to appear in this world.
This place exploded, becoming chaotic.
Honglong!
The great desert split open. A great black crack extended limitlessly into the distance, rushing towards the horizon, unknown just how far it reached.
Sand and rubble flew everywhere, stars trembling.
It wasn't uncommon for great stars to fall at all. It was because battles at this level were just this chaotic.
Moreover, the great desert split open, countless withered bones underground appeared, caught in the blast waves. Some of them exploded to pieces, some floating in midair.
These were all cultivators who had been killed in the past, many withered bones buried beneath the great desert.
This time, a great battle completely erupted. With a hong noise, a blood-colored great halberd hacked over, precisely the supreme being who first entered Heavenly Beast Forest, the one who was injured by Great Elder.
Dang!
Great Elder struck the blood-colored war halberd with his bare hands. There was immediately a large expanse of sparks flying out, whenever one of these sparks fell onto the ground, they would always turn tens of thousands of li of the desert into lava!
This scene was a bit frightening, but this was precisely a battle between supreme beings. Their powers were too great, far exceeding creatures of other cultivation realms.
Hong!
An individual clad in black armor attacked, using his fists as weapons, smashing them over.
Great Elder still fought with his bare hands, similarly sending a fist over. As a result, great dao rumbled between the two, immortal energy exploding, all types of law fragments flew about chaotically here.
Moreover, it was as if hundreds of streaks of lightning hacked down in the void, the noise deafening.
"What happened?"
In the distance, within Heavenly Beast Forest, many people saw the crazy scenes. Divine light rushed into the heavens, striking down the stars in outer space.
"What kind of magical artifact is that?"
"No, that is the result of someone's fist radiance tearing through heaven and earth, entering the sky dome, striking down some stars!"
Someone explained the truth. The faces of those who heard this all went deathly pale, just how terrifying was this power?
In the battlefield, divine light surged, figures crisscrossing. The battle was too intense, a thousand blows exchanged in just an instant.
Chi!
When the blood-colored great halberd smashed down, hacking toward Great Elder Meng Tianzheng's head, he brandished the wooden chest again, really using it like a shield.
Dang!
Simple and violent, the rotten wooden chest in his hands smashed into the great halberd. In addition, he jumped up, right hand forming a magical imprint, slapping outwards.
The other individuals took action as well, either display ancestral techniques or using weapons, attacking forward.
This was extremely dangerous. All of them were supreme beings, now that they attacked together like this, Great Elder's situation looked worrisome.
The foreign supreme experts' objective was the rotten wooden chest, they wanted to seize it, but they also wanted to kill Great Elder.
Right at this time, a wave of boundless pressure appeared in the sky, instantly surrounding everything. This type of power was too majestic, just too intimidating.
Great Elder's expression changed, feeling a tremendous wave of pressure.
One could see a mysterious pouch appear. The opening was loosened, releasing endless multicolored light, about to restrict and collect Great Elder inside.
Immortal artifact, Heaven and Earth Pouch, this originally belonged to the Nine Heavens!
Even this thing appeared, it seemed like the other side really invested greatly in this trip. Not only did five great experts move out, they even activated this matchless magical artifact, wishing to instantly capture Great Elder, seize the rotten wooden chest, not wishing for anything unexpected to happen.
Hong!
At this moment, an ancient diagram appeared in front of Great Elder, bold and powerful, unmatched might spreading; this was precisely the Ten Realms Diagram.
Meng Tianzheng was currently controlling this supreme artifact. It opposed the Heaven and Earth Pouch with equal strength, both sides clashing, power continuously rushing out.
Qiang!
A ringing noise sounded. A young supreme being from the other side produced a small purple sparkling hammer. It had long become damaged, but it still carried terrifying power, this was a damaged immortal artifact.
"There's another one!" Another person said coldly, producing a small furnace. It was the size of a fist, even though it wasn't large, it was covered in cracks, to the extent where there were many areas that had been smashed. It had been in this state for many years already, but it still carried immortal power.
It was another damaged immortal artifact!
It was because with Heaven Abyss in the way, the undying couldn't cross over, not even their unmatched magical artifacts could be brought to this side.
Only the Nine Heavens' magical artifacts, past damaged immortal weapons could pass through.
Once the furnace appeared, the void began to burn, what was exhausted was heaven and earth essence energy!
This sky dome was actually set on fire, and it also began to spread outwards, reaching some great stars, the scene extremely terrifying.
The past immortal artifacts, even if they were damaged, they still had matchless power.
"Heavens! What is that? Stars are being ignited one after another, falling towards the desert to wipe out a target!"
"Just how great of a move is this?!"
Near Heavenly Beast Forest, large amounts of experts cried out in alarm.
"Great Elder, use this sword!" Shi Hao roared out. Right now, he was being protected within a sphere of light, isolated from the outside world.
Otherwise, the terrifying fluctuations would have long ripped him to pieces!
Shi Hao saw that Great Elder fell into a critical situation, making him panic, yet he couldn't do anything to help. He then thought of how extraordinary the Everlasting Sword Core was, giving it to Great Elder, hoping that he could display its power.
Zheng!
The ancient sword released a light cry!
Great Elder received it, the others unable to stop this process. He now had a sword core in one hand, rotten wooden chest in the other, looking incredibly heroic and powerful!
"Suppress!"
The people on the other side all shouted, activating immortal artifacts, suppressing Great Elder.
"Go!" Great Elder released a light shout. The Ten Realms Diagram flew out, smashing towards the Heaven and Earth Pouch, the small purple sparkling hammer, and the furnace, fighting a great battle.
With a crash noise, a corpse wrapping cloth appeared from Great Elder's body. It was soaked in the blood of Immortal Kings, right now also rushing into the sky, resisting the immortal artifact.
The immortal artifacts rushed out, clashing in midair, fighting intensely. As a result, a barrier of light took form, surrounding everything below.
"Excellent, the immortal artifacts have displayed power, unintentionally producing a void battlefield, establishing a small world!"
Someone said with a sneer. It was because this undoubtedly temporarily restricted Great Elder, preventing him from running away.
"Kill!"
The others shouted.
This was five people working together after all, activating immortal artifacts, making them clash in the air. The result was extremely terrifying!
Great Elder Men Tianzheng fought intensely against them, the two sides continuously colliding, rotten wooden chest struck until it released peng peng noises.
They were all supreme beings, so how much weaker could they be than each other? That was why Great Elder's situation wasn't good, at the very least, in Shi Hao's opinion, the situation was a bit terrible.
"Kill!"
Suddenly, Great Elder shouted, his entire body shining, accompanied by immortal mist. Shi Hao trembled, that aura was a bit similar to his own.
"Meng Tianzheng, you really are something, worthy of being someone who was this close to succeeding on that path back then!"
"Using the body as a seed! You were able to grasp some of its power!"
This was the foreign side's evaluation. They naturally felt great restraining fear.
"No wonder you saved Huang, you two are of the same sort, both walking this path!" A supreme expert said with a cold voice. However, he didn't feel any worry, because they had the numbers advantage.
Divine light rushed into the heavens, precious techniques world shocking!
This place became chaotic, several great supreme beings going all out in a decisive bloody battle.
Those who used the body as a seed were exceptionally powerful. Shi Hao deeply experienced this, while the foreign youngsters suffered all types of bitter consequences because of this.
On the path of body as the seed, even though something unexpected happened to Great Elder along the way, almost dying in the process, not completely succeeding, there were still some gates opened, their bodies extremely powerful.
Hong!
Someone struck forward. No one expected that when it was difficult for Great Elder to evade, he actually directly received this palm, facing it with his back.
Meanwhile, at this moment, he borrowed this power to suddenly increase speed, face the one who was right before him, rushing over murderously.
Wenglong!
Heaven and earth shook, trembling intensely.
Strange ripples were released from this place, indicating that this was a decisive battle between powerful individuals.
"You…"
The one who faced Great Elder's sudden attack head-on was shocked, because he discovered that Great Elder's arm became golden, ridiculously powerful, impossible to shake off.
"This is… similar to the method He Wushuang cultivated!" A supreme being's expression changed.
He Wushuang previously obtained the Imperishable Scripture, his strength in the other side extraordinary, exceedingly terrifying. His body was known to be imperishable, powerful to the extreme.
Hong!
Right at this moment, Great Elder received two palms from the back, the attacks of two other individuals.
Blood trickled out from the corners of his mouth, but he actually withstood it. Meanwhile, he directly took action, golden light overflowing into the heavens, displaying the greatest power, attacking that person ferociously.
Kacha!
In the end, that person's blood-colored war halberd was actually broken. When he attacked with his two fists, he still faced Great Elder's most vicious attacks.
"Imperishable Scripture! It's extremely similar to what He Wushuang uses!"
This was basically going all out, carrying out a life and death struggle. After Great Elder took a few blows, he entered a bloody struggle without any regard for consequences with the one in front of him.
Not only was his war halberd broken, even the other party's body was pierced through, the scene horrifying.
Pu!
A bloody struggle was happening in the great desert!
After fighting at close quarters, Great Elder received several blows. Meanwhile, as he did his best to avoid everyone else's attacks, he also focused most of his attacks on a single person.
Hong!
Bloody light surged, dyeing the skies red.
"What? That's… a supreme being fell!" In Heavenly Beast Forest, someone cried out in horror.
"This is… my side's Frozen Sea Supreme Being's aura! He was killed! Heavens! How could it be like this?!"

Chapter 1532 - Heaven Fault Dao Loss
The death of a supreme being? This was a huge matter!
Outside Heavenly Beast Forest, everyone was stunned, all of them feeling their bodies go cold. This was but Frozen Sea Supreme Being! He had dominated this world for millions of years, overlooking the mortal dao realm. How did he end up just dying here?
Many people didn't dare believe this, it was just too tragic. Just how many years had passed before something like this happened? A supreme being's death was definitely a heaven falling earth collapsing disaster!
After a momentary silence, everyone howled in grief, cries of sorrow echoing through the skies.
In the distant battlefield, blood radiance overflowed into the heavens, just too blinding. Dyeing the entire skies red. This was the sign of all of the essence blood within a supreme being exploding.
Even if they never saw this type of thing happen before, they still knew what was happening. It was because there were clear recordings in bone books, foretelling the changes of the universe!
"I refuse to believe this! Frozen Sea Supreme Being is invincible, how could he die here?"
"Supreme being blood has already splattered across the sun and moon. It won't help even if we don't believe it." Someone said with a sigh, inwardly shocked to the point where it couldn't go any further.
This type of thing was too terrifying. How terrifying were supreme beings? They were high up above, having great dignity, almost about to coexist with the world.
"Something's not right. Supreme being blood has filled the skies, how can there not be any stars falling? A single drop of that type of blood can shoot through stars." Someone said with suspicion, still carrying hope, wishing to see Frozen Sea Supreme Being be unharmed.
"It is because there's immortal weapons facing off there, forming a domain, opening up a small world, isolating it from heaven and earth." An elder said with a sigh.
Several immortal weapons floated there, the Ten Realms Diagram, Heaven and Earth Pouch, and others surrounded that place, completely restricting it.
Thus, even if supreme being blood rushed into the heavens, they still wouldn't leave this domain. Otherwise, it would be like the end of the world, the results absolutely horrifying.
This conclusion made everyone's moods become downcast, all of them sighing. Even in the other side, it wasn't easy for one to become a supreme being. If one of them really did die, then it would be a huge deal.
It was because for the other side, if one could cultivate to this level, if nothing unexpected happened, they could go a step further, then be able to exist forever with this world!
The foreign side's environment hadn't changed, still allowing for the emergence of undying existences!
"Perhaps he still hasn't died, we might still be able to save Frozen Sea Supreme Being!" Suddenly, someone spoke, rejecting that type of tragic result.
This left the others greatly shaken, they revealed hopeful looks.
Regardless of whether they were of the same clan or not, they all came from the same side, so any supreme being received great respect!
Once a supreme being appeared, all sides would celebrate, because if nothing unexpected happened, they can continue to advance through the endless years!
"I previously heard that if a supreme being died, there will be many irregular scenes, like heaven's tears, earth sobs, and others. However, nothing like this has appeared yet!" That person said.
When everyone heard this, they were all stunned.
Just now, many creatures were extremely dispirited, carrying grief, so they overlooked some legends. It seemed like there really were some sayings.
Only, after endless years passed, after a great era passed, how many supreme beings fell? They never saw it happen before, which was why they forgot this legend.
In the great desert, within the battlefield.
Meng Tianzheng's black hair flew about chaotically, eyes like suns, releasing two golden streaks of light that were just like the golden armor on his body, incomparably dazzling and intimidating.
His divine clothes were dyed in blood, but when he straightened his body, he seemed even taller. His imposing figure was brilliant, blood energy surging like a sea, now truly risking his life!
At this moment, he looked like a powerful revived war deity. Battle intent surged, incredibly heroic looking. With a great roar, even the heavens and earth were shattered and destroyed.
At this moment, he was unmatched, attacking left and right.
This was especially the case when he entered that expanse of striking red light, his fist strength matchless, continuously striking out, smashing the great cracks in the void until they continuously exploded.
If not for the few immortal weapons above, forming a strange domain, a 'War Realm', surrounding this place, the consequences really would be unimaginable.
This battle energy was too terrifying, tearing through everything.
If any streak of light rushed into outer space, they would be able to blast through the sun and moon!
Hou!
Within the brilliant red light, it was as if a prehistoric ancient beast was roaring, incomparably sinister. It released deafening roars, truly terrifying.
It was precisely the supreme being whose body exploded. His blood-colored great halberd had long been broken, he himself also exploding, all of his essence blood shooting in all directions, difficult for him to condense everything again.
It was because Meng Tianzheng sent his fist smashing out, scattering the essence blood, preventing it from merging back together.
It was precisely as that person in Heavenly Beast Forest said, supreme beings were difficult to kill. Heaven's tears and other irregular scenes didn't appear yet, proving that there was still a chance for things to take a turn for the better.
This was indeed the case. What level of existences were supreme beings? The universe could collapse, yet they might still continue living!
Even though Han Ming's[1] body exploded, he still didn't die. He tried to gather his blood energy, revive his primordial spirit, wishing to immediately return.
Only, Meng Tianzheng's fists were too terrifying, each time they were brandished, they would suppress the endless dao between heaven and earth, bringing tremendous pressure onto this place, interfering with his recovery process.
This made everyone's expressions change. No matter how they took action to injure Meng Tianzheng, they still couldn't immediately help Han Ming escape from this critical state.
It was because Meng Tianzheng already threw caution to the wind, only targeting Han Ming, vowing to kill him. It was precisely the so-called 'injuring ten fingers wasn't as good as breaking one'!
He wanted to kill a supreme being!
"He cultivated the Imperishable Scripture, body powerful, able to face everything head-on, endure for a very long time!" Someone said quietly.
This was an extremely terrible and serious matter. The four of them came to the rescue, yet they couldn't free Han Ming from the dangerous situation, very likely unable to help him revive.
If news of this got out, no one would dare believe it. This was too inconceivable.
One had to understand that there were but four great supreme beings taking action, attacking one person, yet they were momentarily unable to reverse the situation.
Han Ming roared angrily, cracks long covering his primordial spirit, injured by Great Elder. He resisted here, frantically trying to reforge his body, but always failed.
Supreme beings could regenerate from just a single drop of blood, and then quickly recover, make their unmatched bodies reappear. However, Han Ming suffered from the greatest dilemma, he actually couldn't do it.
The fists' power overwhelmed everything, suppressing everything, even making his primordial spirit want to break to pieces.
This was something that had never happened before. They were all supreme beings, so why was Meng Tianzheng this powerful?
In reality, they always somewhat looked down on the creatures of Imperial Pass, because it was clear just from the battles of later generations that the youngsters of the Nine Heavens were inferior to those of the other side. Apart from Huang, there weren't many who could pose a threat.
Thus, they naturally looked down on the older generation as well.
In reality, this really was the case. Last time, in the battle of Great Scarlet Sky, the older generation figures shed blood one after another, unable to produce any outstanding battle accomplishments.
"Do you all really think you are superior?" Meng Tianzheng roared out. His body was young, eyebrows sharp, eyes penetrating. His black hair scattered down, skin shining, golden battle clothes glaring, shocking and intimidating.
"The Nine Heavens Ten Earths have faults, cultivation isn't easy for us, so the younger generation is a bit behind. It isn't because our people are lacking compared to your side, but because of the environment itself." Great Elder said, carrying regret.
The supreme beings' eyes all contracted. They naturally knew that this 'remnant illness' remained.
At the same time, they thought of another problem. Cultivating in this type of environment wasn't easy, many times they couldn't even cultivate to perfection unless they broke through the limit!
However, just how many people could break through the limit, exceed the extremes of cultivation realms?
It was clear that those who could reach the supreme being level all had to accomplish this, which was why they wouldn't be any weaker than foreign creatures of the same level, perhaps even a bit stronger!
The great battle of the last great era was miserable. The Nine Heavens Ten Earths was originally one land mass, but in the end, it was broken apart, turned into great ancient continents.
Moreover, the world became one with fault, the universe damaged, heaven and earth great dao lacking.
It was precisely because of this that one would encounter this type of problem when cultivating. There were some cultivation realms where it seemed like one has already reached a consummate level, but still had some flaws.
This was one of the main reasons why the youth in Imperial Pass fell behind the young experts of the other side!
If one wanted to free themselves from this dilemma, then it could only be done so by exceeding the limit in every single cultivation realm, breaking through the restrictions, piercing through the limitations of heaven and earth's faults!
This type of person would definitely become terrifying, unimaginable. Even in the foreign side, they would be elites of Emperor Clans, powerful outstanding talents!
Huang, without a doubt, accomplished this. The foreign cultivators knew that this was definitely the case, or else there was no way he could kill so many foreign cultivators of the same level.
The supreme beings' pupils contracted, staring at Meng Tianzheng. He was clearly also this type of person.
"We're all supreme beings, there's no way we are weaker, we've all reached this level after all." Someone said coldly.
However, Meng Tianzheng spoke with his actions. When his fists brandished about, it was as if hundreds and thousands of heavenly suns were stirred about, this world rumbling with noise, shaking heaven and earth.
"Not good!"
Han Ming shouted out. He was the victim, no one understanding better than him how terrifying this strike was. It was simply as if a monarch appeared, coming from the ancient past, wishing to destroy everything.
Unfortunately, there were several immortal artifacts that locked down heaven and earth, no matter how strong Han Ming was, he still couldn't break out.
He originally wanted to catch a turtle in a jar, kill Meng Tianzheng here, but never expected that the one who was trapped first was himself.
Hong!
When Great Elder brandished his fist, Han Ming roared out, the others also frantically taking action, but just couldn't change this situation.
The great dao true meanings contained within this fist were ever-present, filling this War Realm. It smashed everything apart, including the primordial spirit!
It was because this fist was connected to some of the gates in Great Elder's body, clear light endless, flooding out like a great river, surging out, absolutely devastating.
Using the body as a seed, this is the establishing of a unique form of power, all of it pouring out.
"This path is terrifying as expected!" The eyes of a supreme being went ice-cold, dazzling and penetrating like a heavenly blade.
Meng Tianzheng previously almost died while on this path, not walking it to the end. However, he almost succeeded, which was why he grasped extraordinary power.
In the past, no one knew about this!
Only now did he establish it, leaving some great supreme beings shaken.
Hong!
This time, Han Ming was in despair, it wasn't enough even with the help of the others. Meng Tianzheng seemed to have completely tangled around him, focusing on him the entire time, continuously attacking.
Now, he even more so used a trump card to decide things.
Pu!
This time, Han Ming's primordial spirit broke apart inch by inch, turning into a rain of light. It then quickly grew dim, truly dying.
Of course, during this process, Great Elder received three great blows, but he didn't hesitate, still attacking Han Ming viciously.
Hong!
That primordial spirit light exploded, completely going out. Meanwhile, the rain of light was set aflame, turned to ashes.
"Ah…" There was a final furious roar. Frozen Sea Supreme Being died!

Chapter 1533 - Bloody Battle
Hou!
A supreme being roared, venting his fury and battle intent. The space here rumbled, completely breaking apart, the scene terrifying.
Han Ming was killed before their very faces, even the four great supreme beings unable to save him. This made all of their expressions become cold and grave, killing intent surged endlessly.
It was clear that the four great experts now set the firm resolution to kill Meng Tianzheng.
"He died! Han Ming Supreme Being really died!"
Outside Heavenly Beast forest, a group of people shivered, all of them horrified, because the legendary scene appeared.
At this moment, heaven's tears appeared. The sky was originally completely clear of clouds, dark blue like the sea, but now, blood rain poured down, releasing rustling noises.
Dark red blood landed on the treetops, splashing on rocks, the scene extremely alarming.
Everyone was shaken. This was heaven's tears, a type of regret, a type of emotion expressed following the death of the most powerful individuals.
A rain of blood poured down, raining heavily, vast and boundless. It was unknown where it came from, dyeing the surface red, covering everything in a red color. Everyone was stunned.
Then, the earth split open, many eye-like cracks appearing, blood-colored spring water gushing out; this was the earth sobbing!
These scenes left everyone shaken. All of the foreign creatures couldn't help but suppress a wave of grief, inwardly shedding tears. This couldn't be controlled, feeling sorrow for Han Ming.
A supreme being fell, heaven and earth shedding tears.
Hong!
Then, streaks of black lightning appeared in the sky one after another, hacking about crazily, the noise unimaginably great. It was as if black dragons were roaring one after another, shaking up the Desolate Border ancient land.
Then, something even more shocking happened.
Skeletons fell from the sky dome one after another, the corpses of all types of creatures, extremely horrifying.
Where did they come from? Where did they drop from?
Everyone opened their Heavenly Eyes, able to see that this all appeared mysteriously from the void, and not falling from outer space. It was extremely strange.
Many people sucked in cold breaths of air, feeling that things were sinister. Skeletons fell from the air?
Peng!
Those skeletons fell onto the ground, some of them giant like a mountain, some as small as an infant, in the end, they all broke apart, turning into white powder.
Bright red blood rained down, together with the snow-white skeletons that fell from the sky, it looked extremely sinister, making one's scalp go numb.
These irregular scenes couldn't affect battles between supreme beings at all.
Great Elder didn't even fear the living Han Ming, still killing him without any hesitation, let alone this scene produced from his death. Meng Tianzheng was incomparably heroic, fighting a great battle against supreme beings here.
However, he was also bleeding. For the sake of ending Han Ming as soon as possible, he paid a certain price, taking on the attacks of four supreme beings.
Otherwise, how could Han Ming be that easy to kill? He was also a supreme being, too hard to kill. In this great era, rarely did people of this level fall after endless years.
It was difficult for supreme beings to die, yet Meng Tianzheng still killed one. This was definitely a huge matter, it would trigger a huge commotion even if it was in the other side.
"Kill him quickly, don't let anything else happen!"
A supreme being said, this individual having a black war spear in hand. Moreover, with a shake of his hand, a black decree shot out. It was extremely strange, on it a single character, but it was covered in bloodstains.
"Black Decree?" Great Elder was immediately startled. He had heard of this type of thing from the other side, rumored to hold immeasurable power.
When the other three supreme beings saw this, they all supported it together. That Black Decree shone, black mist filling the skies. The law decree was like a black hole, becoming even more terrifying.
Moreover, the blood on it began to flow about, surge like a sea, rumbling with noise. In the end, it was actually about to completely erupt.
"Suppress and kill!"
A supreme being shouted loudly, activating the law decree, attacking towards Meng Tianzheng.
Chi!
Great Elder Meng Tianzheng no longer fought with his bare hands. A sword core appeared in his palm, directly shooting out, releasing an ascension rain of light, glorious sword radiance oppressing even the heavenly sun.
Pu!
It sounded as if rotting flesh was pierced through, releasing a light noise. The Everlasting Immortal Sword Core was dazzling to the extreme, piercing through the Black Decree, making the blood on it gush out.
As expected, it was as if a blood sea rushed out, pouring out from the Black Decree like a dam burst, about to extend past the sword core, devour Great Elder.
However, the sword core shone, it was as if a burial land song sounded, ancient and deep, even more so carrying a type of lonesomeness and sadness.
This sound was extremely strange, leaving even Great Elder shocked.
The four foreign great experts were even more shocked. This sword core was too strange, it clearly released an ascension rain of light, so why was their burial songs?
Hu!
The Black Decree burned, turning into ashes. All of the bloodstains dried up, thus disappearing without a trace.
The burial songs disappeared, sword core becoming quiet again, as if nothing happened.
"Kill!"
Those individuals roared out, a life and death struggle to be carried out, not ending until they took Meng Tianzheng's life.
It was because Han Ming was killed in battle, this really was a great humiliation. Five great experts moved out, yet one of them died, making all of them lose all face.
"Meng Tianzheng, you are quite strong, but we aren't weak either. Let's see just how long you can persist for!" One of them shouted.
Meng Tianzheng's golden armor already had damage. After suffering serious blows several times, his body was dyed in blood, even the thick black hair having some traces of blood.
His figure was tall and straight, heroic and powerful, eyes incomparably deep, not feeling any fear or apprehension.
Shi Hao was surrounded within a sphere of light, protected within. He was extremely worried. Great Elder was one person, while the other side had many people. They were all supreme beings, so how much weaker could they be? If this continued, it would most likely be dangerous.
"Great Elder, can we break out?" He didn't want Great Elder to fight to the death.
Meng Tianzheng didn't reply. However, in the end, he took action, releasing a great roar, shaking the great desert. With a wave of his hand, the Ten Realms Diagram in the sky trembled, rumbling intensely.
Immortal artifacts trembled, the radiance it released covered the world, incomparably dazzling.
He wanted to collect that immortal artifact back, make this War Realm break apart, and then leave.
"You want to leave? It won't be that easy! When immortal artifacts clash, how can the domains formed be that easily broken down?!" A supreme being said coldly.
What he said was the truth. The current situation was quite special, several immortal artifacts opposing each other with equal harshness, the light they released linking together, momentarily difficult to separate.
Hong!
Many strange symbols appeared in Meng Tianzheng's surroundings. They were extremely dazzling, as if they were patterns on his body. There were some great dao traces, this the case even for the golden battle armor. Patterns continuously appeared, making him look more and more divine.
His blood energy was boiling, as if an ancient war immortal was awakening. Incomparable fluctuations rippled outwards, the scene incredibly shocking.
With a honglong noise, blood energy surged like a dragon-shaped heaven supporting pillar, reaching into outer space.
Then, with one hand holding the sword core, the other holding the rotten wooden chest, Great Elder rushed into the heavens, shooting up, actually breaking free, rushing out from the domain formed from the immortal artifacts.
How could this be possible? The supreme beings in the back were all stupefied.
"The Imperishable Scripture is terrifying after all, making his body rise to the peak, activate power exceeding conventional norms, affecting the Ten Realms Diagram, producing an opening!" Someone said with a cold voice.
"Does he not want the Ten Realms Diagram or the corpse wrapping cloth anymore? This is fine as well, we can just take them!" Another person said.
"That's not possible, it can't be seized. Those immortal artifacts are still confronting each other, difficult to move within a short period of time. Let's leave for now, or else we'll be enmeshed in our own trap!"
Chi!
Four figures rushed into the heavens, also leaving this War Realm through that opening.
"Where do you think you're going?!" The four great supreme beings gave chase.
They temporarily abandoned the immortal artifacts, because this type of thing could be brought away afterwards. Right now, no one could move them.
"Kill!" The one holding the black war spear took action, stabbing forward. At the same time, they went into outer space, standing in the boundless cosmos.
This black war spear was incredibly terrifying. It released glistening brilliance, the spear point frightening, becoming massive, the power astonishing.
Meng Tianzheng turned around indifferently, slashing out with his sword, striking this spear aside with a qiang noise.
The black war spear was like a black heaven and earth spine, enormous beyond compare. With a pu sound, it stabbed through a star, making it explode on the spot.
Then, the war spear rushed into the sky, stabbing towards Meng Tianzheng again, but it suffered resistance again.
They fought a great battle in outer space. It was extremely intense!
Hong!
Another person suddenly produced a great seal. It was incredibly massive, instantly enlarging, shattering some of the stars nearby, smashing towards Great Elder.
With a peng noise, Great Elder brandished the rotten wooden chest in his hands, clashing with it. They struck together, releasing blinding light.
This made the foreign supreme beings' eyes surge with light. They stared at the wooden chest. This thing was extraordinary after all, actually able to send even supreme being magical artifacts flying.
"Collect!"
Another person released a great shout, activating a furnace. It began to burn, blazing flames surging from within, wishing to suck Meng Tianzheng inside.
One could even see some stars move, some of them sucked in. Powerful winds swept through this place like a tsunami, violent waves wreaking havoc.
When Great Elder fell towards the pill furnace, his foot stepped out, giving the pill furnace opening a kick, sending it flying. Sky-covering fiery light poured out, burning asteroids and others into liquid.
This was a great decisive battle. Several people were fighting a battle of life and death, not willing to stop here.
Later on, with a pu noise, a black war spear stabbed through Great Elder's chest. The bloody spearpoint came out of his lower back.
Not even the golden battle armor could help Meng Tianzheng block this spear, leaving him seriously injured.
One had to understand that this was a supreme being magical artifact. If it was another creature being pierced, they would explode on the spot, nothing left behind.
However, Meng Tianzheng instead released a great roar, not struggling free from the war spear, instead charging forward along the spear's long pole, slaughtering his way towards the supreme being who held the black war spear.
It was clear that this was done intentionally, using this spear injury to exchange for a battle opportunity. Meng Tianzheng brandished the sword core, hacking forward murderously.
Pu!
Bloody light splashed outwards. That supreme being was practically cleaved in half.
All of this happened in the time it took for sparks to fly off a flint. It was just too fast! The three great supreme beings on the side originally thought that they finally seized the advantage, that Meng Tianzheng was going to fall, but they instead found that their companion was seriously injured.
Meng Tianzheng's action was because he really had no choice. He was surrounded and attacked by supreme beings, so if he wanted to break out, kill his enemies, he had to pay the corresponding price.
Otherwise, it was impossible to have any battle results within a short amount of time.
He was worried that there would be other foreign supreme beings who would rush over. That was why he had no choice, hoping to kill all enemies within the shortest amount of time, seize the battle results!
After Meng Tianzheng was stabbed by the black war spear, his movements weren't restricted at all. He continued to attack with everything he had, releasing ferocious attacks.
The war spear's owner's body almost split into two. His expression immediately changed, doing everything he could to back up. He had no choice but to let go of the war spear in his hands.
When the others saw this, they all took action. Supreme being methods interweaved, blasting forward.
Pu!
Sword light crashed down like a waterfall, illuminating the sky dome, making large amounts of stars grow dim.
Blood radiance splashed outwards. This time, Great Elder not only removed that person's head, there was also a bloody hole that appeared in the space between his brows.
"Imperishable Scripture!" The owner of the war spear roared with fury.
It was because in the instant he let go of his weapon, he really wanted to activate this war spear, make it explode, destroy Great Elder in this way.
However, in that instant, Great Elder's body was solid like Immortal Gold, unmovable, terrifyingly powerful. Moreover, there was a tremendous power that surged from his body, suppressing him.

Chapter 1534 - Slaughter Back to Imperial Pass
A bloody hole appeared in the forehead of the black war spear's owner. This was naturally extremely dangerous, even if he was a supreme being, if this part was injured, there was still a chance of him dying.
However, supreme beings were supreme beings in the end. The space between his brows erupted with brilliance, his forehead bone trembling greatly. There were great dao divine laws that appeared, stopping the sword tip, preventing it from entering.
However, his primordial spirit still suffered damage, producing cracks. This was extremely serious.
His soul was injured. This definitely couldn't be compared to flesh injuries, needing to be treated seriously, or else unexpected things might happen.
Honglong!
On the side, a great imprint released primal chaos light. It was giant beyond compare, as if it was going to fill up outer space, rumbling as it fell. Great dao divine might was released, blasting towards Meng Tianzheng.
Then, that pill furnace also suppressed downwards, helping the heavily injured supreme being escape this disaster.
Apart from this, there was a wolf tooth club that was giant and heavy. Another person sent it smashing over, rumbling thunderous noise immediately ringing out as it descended.
However, Meng Tianzheng seemed to be completely dead set, not even pulling the black war spear out of his body, still slaughtering his way forward, wishing to end that person's life.
That person's pupils contracted. He abandoned the black war spear, yet still found it difficult to escape disaster. The other party followed him relentlessly, pretty much locking onto him.
However, fortunately, there was still some distance put between the sword core and the space between his brows, unable to stab into his skull in the end. Otherwise, he might follow right in Han Ming's footsteps.
Even though he was still in great danger, this Meng Tianzheng was just too valiant, aiming at his frontal bone. The sword core took in and sent out divine radiance, stabbing out murderously.
The three people behind all carried murderous intent. Han Ming's death was said and done, now, Yi Gu[1] was also in danger. If another accident happened, then it really would be unimaginable.
Five great experts came to take action, if two died, then this was definitely an extraordinary humiliation, even more so a huge matter.
However, they had to admit that Meng Tianzheng was too strong, moreover extremely decisive. Even with the black war spear stabbed through his chest, he still continued to attack viciously.
This was someone who dared to fight to the death!
"Kill!" Yi Gu roared out. He wanted to use his war spear, because that was his magical artifact. He wanted to make Great Elder's body split apart through it.
However, divine light surged around Meng Tianzheng's body like a great furnace, surrounding his body, isolating him from the outside world. That black war spear didn't move in the slightest.
"Kill!"
Great Elder shouted. Sword energy produced a thousand mirages, hacking outwards. Streak after streak of divine radiance tore through the sky dome, the scene terrifying.
Hong!
In the back, the great imprint, pill furnace and wolf tooth club all rushed over, attacking Meng Tianzheng murderously.
He moved outwards, either dodging or facing them with precious techniques. However, during this entire time, he still pressed forward, wishing to end Yi Gu.
"You think you can still have your way this time? It's time for you to pay the price. Just die!" Someone shouted from the back.
Han Ming was killed precisely because Meng Tianzheng went all out, not hesitating to take on serious injuries to go all out. Right now, these people saw how he was acting, feeling like he wanted to go all out against Yi Gu, which was why they did everything they could to stop this.
This was a strange scene. Great Elder chased after Yi Gu, while the three others chased after him, producing quite the bizarre situation.
Precious technique erupted between heaven and earth, weapons releasing resounding noises. Some stars collapsed as they passed by.
This battle was extremely intense, all of them were fighting with their lives on the line.
This was especially the case with Great Elder. A black spear was stabbed into his body, blood dripping out, dyeing the golden armor red, long black hair scattered about, his current appearance a bit solemn and stirring.
However, right when they thought that Meng Tianzheng was injured, about to give up, the war spear in his body suddenly shone, dazzling to the extreme, piercing through his chest and flying out from his back.
This strike was too resplendent, the black war spear shining, tearing apart the sky dome. The surrounding stars all swayed, the universe even seeming like it was going to collapse!
This happened extremely suddenly. The black war spear carried Great Elder's essence blood, moving as fast as lightning, tearing through a screen of light behind him, stabbing into a supreme being's chest with a pu sound.
That person was stunned, because this happened too quickly. That war spear condensed powerful symbols, flickering with the Imperishable Scripture's symbols.
Originally, Meng Tianzheng was precisely going all out against Yi Gu, so the people behind never expected him to turn around and attack them, change targets.
Hou!
The wounded supreme being Kong Tuo roared with fury. He removed the war spear, blood trickling out from his chest. Then, blood energy erupted, quickly recovering his injured body.
"Do you think you can change anything by injuring me? We are supreme beings, too hard for us to be buried in this world. If you want to take my life, then show me some real skills!"
"You're right, a battle between supreme beings really should reveal true skills." Great Elder replied calmly.
Then, he turned into a streak of light, rushing over, fighting an intense battle against that person.
Yi Gu who was chased first already stopped, quickly restoring his injured body. The space between his brows was brilliant, the damaged primordial spirit also healing.
"Ah…" Kong Tuo suddenly cried out, because even though his chest that was stabbed through by the black war spear recovered, there was a sphere of light that was ignited, wreaking havoc within his body.
"What is this? Your primordial spirit entered my body?!" He simply didn't dare believe what he was seeing.
It was because Meng Tianzheng was clearly fighting an intense battle with him, but why was there a ball of light within his body? It was like a primordial spirit, wishing to seize control of his flesh.
"You all only saw the Imperishable Scripture I cultivated, completely unaware of the divine abilities that I am even more adept at." Great Elder said coldly.
"Yin Yang Art!" A supreme being's expression changed
This was a strange ancient heavenly art that possessed immeasurable might. Heaven and earth was produced from yin and yang. The great dao could be elaborated through yin and yang, so since this ancient heavenly art dared to use this as its name, it was naturally powerful.
In reality, it indeed was extraordinary. Not only could it cultivate yin and yang energies, it could even temporarily have the primordial spirit break into two, become two spirits. It was strange and unfathomable, powerful beyond compare.
Moreover, it could divide blood energy into two, temporarily form another true self physique.
Just now, the black war spear carried Great Elder's essence blood, hiding a primordial spirit within. It pierced into Kong Tuo's body, naturally carrying deeper meaning. It now displayed its might.
Hou!
Within Kong Tuo's body, a sphere of resplendent blood shone, wrapping around the primordial spirit. It quickly enlarged, releasing a great roar.
It was as if a war god was going to struggle free from Kong Tuo's body, wishing to blast Kong Tuo's flesh to pieces.
"Just a trifling half primordial spirit, yet you dare enter my body? Today, I am going to completely refine you!" Kong Tuo calmed down. His entire body shone, blood energy becoming chaotic, wishing to refine that primordial spirit of great elder.
The other three also all moved, going all out in attack.
One could see a war god revive within Kong Tuo's body, wishing to struggle free.
Kong Tuo's body was like a matchless demon king, roaring out, quickly suppressing it, making that sphere of blood energy and primordial spirit become smaller, as if it was completely devoured.
"Heaven Cleaving Axe!"
Meng Tianzheng roared, attacking Kong Tuo.
Kong Tuo's body was greatly shaken. That primordial spirit shone, meanwhile, that lump of essence blood turned into a battle-axe, dark red and striking. It was held in the hand of that primordial spirit little figure, brandished about, hacking down there.
"Not good!" The expression of the others changed, the so-called Heaven Cleaving Axe was one of the past top grade immortal dao secret methods. It condensed one's essence blood, turning into an axe, known to be able to open a new heaven and earth.
This was just too terrifying. The primordial spirit that separated from Meng Tianzheng carried essence blood, this was actually to unleash an attack from within the enemy's body.
Pu!
Kong Tuo's body was torn open, even the primordial spirit was cleaved in half.
Hong!
Meng Tianzheng's true body arrived. With the Everlasting Sword Core in hand, he hacked out crazily, sword energy endless. From time to time, great stars were hacked down, the scene absolutely horrifying.
The pitiful Kong Tuo was annihilated just like that!
A rain of blood poured down from heaven and earth, countless skeletons fell. The irregular scenes of a supreme being's death descended once more.
This time, the expressions of the three supreme beings who remained changed. This was just a single Meng Tianzheng, yet two great supreme beings died. This was unendurable.
Now, only three people remained. Could it be that the other person still wanted to cut them down too?
Meng Tianzheng roared out. That primordial spirit and blood energy returned, becoming one primordial spirit again. Meanwhile, now, a giant axe appeared outside his body.
This was condensed from the essence blood released from his body!
"Heaven Cleaving Axe!"
This secret method was exceedingly terrifying. In the last great era, when unmatched existences displayed it, it had previously cut down unmatched figures from the other side.
"Meng Tianzheng, do you really think you can alter the universe, kill us?"
"Kill!"
The great battle became more and more intense. They fought with no regard for personal safety, carrying out another decisive battle.
Pu!
Blood radiance rushed into the heavens, dyeing outer space red.
It was because in this instant, Meng Tianzheng put away the Everlasting Sword Core, holding a Heaven Cleaving Axe in his hand, removing half of Yi Gu's body, truly delivering fatal damage.
"En?" Suddenly, Great Elder was alarmed, becoming wary. He looked towards a direction.
Immediately afterwards, he stopped, quickly retreating.
It was because several figures suddenly appeared from Heavenly Beast Forest' direction, rushing over from the other side. Terrifying reinforcements had arrived.
Meng Tianzheng didn't stay behind any longer, quickly rushing in Imperial Pass' direction.
At the same time, the Ten Realms Diagram, Heaven and earth Pouch, and others, after clashing for some time, finally split up. The immortal artifacts shone, shaking heaven and earth.
Chi chi chi!
The sounds were ear-splitting. The immortal weapons flew in different directions, put away by the ones who activated them respectively.
The majestic Imperial Pass towered between heaven and earth.
Great Elder brought Shi Hao with him, speeding towards Imperial Pass, successfully slaughtering their way back.
Shi Hao was shocked. Great Elder continuously killed supreme beings! If not for the terrifying reinforcements who came, his accomplishments might be even more glorious!

Chapter 1535 - Return
Imperial Pass was right before them, vigorous and imposing!
Its simple and ancient outlook carried signs of great changes. The city was formed through countless stars, despite its old-fashioned appearance, it was majestic and oppressive, as if an entire universe was crushing down.
Meng Tianzheng's figure was tall and straight, standing before Imperial Pass. His golden armor was tattered, carrying dark red traces of blood, thick black hair scattered down to his waist. His eyes were extremely deep, full of depth, heroic aura restrained. Right now, he had the appearance of his golden years!
"Great Elder, nothing is wrong, right?" Shi Hao asked. He was extremely worried. Just now, Great Elder fought while bathed in blood, a single person actually killing two supreme beings, his style unmatched.
If not for that unforeseen incident, even more powerful reinforcements arriving from Heavenly Beast Forest, Meng Tianzheng might have even killed a third supreme being. Before going, he already cleaved the other party's body into two parts.
Just how world-shaking of accomplishment was this? If news of this went out, it would shake the entire world under the sky.
Perhaps this was this great era's most shocking battle, after all, it was a battle at the very peak of mortal dao!
Great Elder didn't say anything, only shaking his head. An altar appeared in his palm, extremely small, only the height of a fist. It released brilliance, and then produced a passage.
Shua!
Immediately afterwards, Shi Hao and Meng Tianzheng disappeared from their original location, entering that passage, proceeding into Emperor City!
At the same time, a few figures in the great desert screamed out, releasing world-shaking roars. The entire golden desert was overturned.
One could see endless skeletal remains below the desert, all of them from creatures who died in the past. They were all divine bones, rising and falling within the desert, the scene astonishing.
Several figures stood before Imperial Pass, their expressions all cold, carrying powerful killing intent. However, they already couldn't do anything, they couldn't break into this city.
Moreover, even further out, there were a few more figures, their auras all surging, extremely terrifying, the blood energy they released covering the sun and moon!
The foreign supreme beings gave chase. After coming here, they could only hold their regret. There was no way for them to enter.
"It won't be long before my side comes knocking on your door, completely opening up this ancient city!" Someone said coldly.
At this moment, light shone from inside the city. This was a public square, the space it occupied extremely vast, great armies normally setting out from here.
"Yi, someone moved through space, entering the city through the passage."
"Sigh, it is definitely another troop that went looking for Huang that returned. It really is regretful, Heavenly Beast Forest has been surrounded, no one able to enter."
"Huang really is too unlucky, dying an untimely death! He is trapped there, no one able to save him."
A few people discussed amongst themselves. It was clear that news of what happened outside Desolate Border got back, drawing the attention of everyone in the city.
The foreign great army stood guard outside Heavenly Beast Forest, mustering great forces, killing intent overflowing into the heavens. Imperial Pass long heard about this, paying close attention to this the entire time.
However, that place was a danger spot. Moreover, after several dozen troops were sent out, most of them were advised to return by Great Elder, not allowing them to take risks.
There were some who insisted on going, but in the end, they returned. When they saw the armored great army surrounding Heavenly Beast Forest, they could only sigh.
"Can Senior Meng Tianzheng succeed?" Some people carried hope, saying like this, hoping that he could successfully bring Huang back.
By now, many people knew that Huang obtained a wooden chest from outside Desolate Border. The other side went crazy precisely because of this, this item definitely affected too much.
"I heard that Huang continuously killed foreign enemies, completely unstoppable as he weaved in and out, extremely astonishing!"
Some secret reports returned, triggering a huge commotion.
When the other side hunted down Huang, quite a few young experts died. This made quite a few hot-blooded youngsters become excited, previously cheering because of this.
"They're coming, appearing here!"
Everyone looked towards the public square. There was a giant altar there.
Regardless of whether it was leaving or returning to the city, they all had to be examined carefully by the formation, inspected, even life imprints examined to ensure Imperial Pass' safety.
That was why regardless of whether it was many people who passed through or just one or two, it would always take a bit of time.
"Heavens, it's Senior Meng!"
"Ah, my eyes aren't deceiving me right? Who am I looking at, Huang… returned!"
Inside the city gates, around the public square, a group of people cried out in alarm, simply refusing to believe everything they saw.
An upright and tall figure dressed in tattered golden clothes emerged, even his hair covered in blood, he brought Huang back to Emperor City. He stood on the altar, looking like a returning war god.
Quite a few people rubbed their eyes, making sure that they didn't see incorrectly. They then erupted into cheers.
"Senior Meng's divine might is matchless, actually slaughtered his way back, bringing Huang with him!"
"Heavens, his heroicness truly is incomparable!"
"The foreign great army surrounded Heavenly Beast Forest, so many supreme beings overseeing it, yet none of them could stop Senior Meng from bringing Huang back!"
Everyone knew that Meng Tianzheng definitely experienced an exceptionally terrifying battle. Otherwise, how could he have broken out of their siege, safely bringing Shi Hao back to Imperial Pass?
They knew even without taking the time to think about it that this was a decisive battle that touched upon the supreme being level, an unimaginable extraordinary clash of titans.
Meng Tianzheng's body was soaked in blood, his armor in tatters, this enough to explain some things. This was but a great battle between supreme beings! Just how bitter and intense was that?
To even fight supreme beings without dying, returning alive, this was the greatest victory!
"I am going to make a report!"
Soon afterwards, news transmitted out. However, it wasn't as fast as Meng Tianzheng's speed. A great golden path appeared below his feet, bringing Shi Hao away from this place, directly heading into Imperial Pass' depths.
"This is a miracle! Huang returned, not falling in Desolate Border's danger spots!"
This news really was shocking, shaking up Imperial Pass, leaving all sides stunned. It was because previously, everyone thought that Shi Hao was going to die outside, that there was no way he could return.
However, Meng Tianzheng toppled everything alone, bathed in blood, winning and returning.
All of Imperial Pass erupted into commotion. Even though the city was incredibly large, the land it occupied massive, when news was released, almost the entire city exploded.
This was a huge affair!
It was because Huang obtained a supreme treasure! This triggered the attention of the other side, wishing to seize it back, but he successfully made it through.
"Was the rotten wooden chest brought back?" Many people paid close attention to this, urgently wishing to know. This was especially the case with some great powers.
Of course, all sides were shocked at Meng Tianzheng's strength as well. Just how great were his divine skills? A single person marched into the other side's endless army, rescuing his disciple and returning.
"Heaven warping divine might, Senior Meng is unmatched after all! If the environment hadn't changed, he would have long achieved immortality!"
"Where is Huang? We have to meet him, even more so meet Senior Meng!"
Many people shouted, crying out, extremely stirred up. After they learned of what happened, they wanted to know what happened outside Desolate Border.
A great golden path passed through Emperor City, extending for who knew how many tens of thousands of li. Along the way, Great Elder suddenly dropped down with Shi Hao.
"Ah, it's Senior Meng!"
When someone saw them, his throat immediately went dry. Then, a group rushed over, greeting them with great courtesy, their eyes burning fiercely.
The current Great Elder, was, without a doubt, like a war immortal, making many people feel incomparable admiration.
"Please don't disturb Great Elder for now, he fought an intense battle with several supreme beings, he has taken on injuries himself as well!" Shi Hao said, extremely worried.
"What?" The others were shocked. He fought a decisive battle alone against several supreme beings? Just how powerful was this? It really was heroic and domineering!
"What was the result?" Even though they knew that Great Elder was unharmed, returning peacefully, many people were still overwhelmed by emotions.
"Great Elder killed two great supreme beings in succession, seriously wounded another! If not for even more creatures appearing from the other side, Great Elder's accomplishments might be even more glorious!" Shi Hao said.
Hong!
This place completely erupted.
Many people felt their blood boil. When they looked at the current young and heroic great elder, all of their eyes burned fiercely, feeling incomparable admiration and respect.
"Raising my Imperial Pass' divine might, Senior Meng is a heaven warping hero!"
A few people roared out.
"Follow me." Meng Tianzheng said to Shi Hao.
There was a mountain region ahead that surged with chaotic energy. Great Elder brought Shi Hao into a mountain forest. There was an extremely ancient giant palace inside.
This was one of the places where Great Elder normally cultivated in seclusion.
The others stopped, unable to enter.
"Senior, how are you really feeling?" Shi Hao felt more and more worried, fearing that something unexpected would happen to Great Elder.
When he spoke up to here, he quickly produced a jade bottle, inside of it a sparkling leaf that carried rich fragrance. It was precisely the immortal medicine leaf he obtained not long ago.
Great Elder shook his head, not accepting it. Many cracks appeared on the surface of his body, like cracked porcelain, truly terrifying, as if his body might break apart at any time.
"What a pity, I was just that close!" Great Elder shook his head, saying with a sigh.
Shi Hao's mind immediately fell.
"You do not need to worry, I'm fine. I only feel a bit of regret, if those attack methods and tempering were a bit greater, perhaps it would be a great opportunity." Great Elder said.
Then, he explained to Shi Hao that the ancient method he cultivated was extremely special.
"I previously used the body as a seed, but something unexpected happened, thus almost dying in the process, later on reborn within ashes. This time, I wanted to use this chance to refine my body, but the amount of force wasn't enough…"
Great Elder's words immediately left Shi Hao shocked and stupefied.
Great Elder's cultivation had reached a critical moment, intentionally fighting head-on in the great battle, giving up many techniques and methods, wishing to borrow those supreme beings to temper his own body, help himself carry out a crucial transformation.
This was naturally extremely dangerous!
It was because every move from the enemy was life threatening!
Shi hao felt like Great Elder might be even stronger than what he displayed in that battle.
"The tempering didn't completely go as expected. I wish to enter seclusion, try to break at the limit." Great Elder said. At the same time, his injuries really weren't light.
When he spoke up to here, with a raise of his hand, his palm shone. The rotten wooden chest appeared.
Previously, he used great magical force to hide the wooden chest's aura. Now, he held it in his hands, carefully examining it.
In the end, Great Elder released a sigh. He didn't find out anything either. He had already carefully inspected it while fighting the great battle earlier.
Great Elder returned the wooden chest to Shi Hao, because he had no way of opening it.
"You killed countless enemies this time, making the other side suffer disastrous losses. Do not underreport, tell everyone what happened. Your contributions this time are just too great, Stone Clan within Imperial Pass should be able to free themselves from sin!" Great Elder warned.
Shi Hao bowed respectfully. He truly felt the greatest admiration for Great Elder. If Great Elder didn't take action, he definitely wouldn't be able to return alive.
"Go then." Great Elder closed his eyes. He had to enter seclusion, the first was because he wanted to carry out a great transformation, the second was because his injuries really were serious.

Chapter 1536 - Meeting
Shi Hao left the giant palace. He carried the rotten wooden chest in his hands, arriving in the outside world.
This triggered an uproar. When some people saw the wooden chest in his hands, they immediately knew what it was!
It was precisely this chest that caused the foreign great army to make such great moves, not hesitating to put themselves in danger, surrounding Heavenly Beast Forest, Divine Medicine Mountain Range and other places. It truly was shocking.
"This is that wooden chest?" A few people's voices were trembling, some even more so long rushing over, wishing to see just what was special about this place.
Shi Hao didn't stop them, instead acting quite generous, allowing them to look as they pleased. It was because regardless of whether it was him or Great Elder, none of them had any way of seeing through its profound mysteries. If someone was able to think of a way to open it, then things couldn't be better.
"Where is Shi Hao?"
"Where is Huang right now?"
Meanwhile, a large group of youngsters rushed over from the distance, shouting and hollering. They were all familiar people.
For example, Cao Yusheng, Chang Gongyan, Wei Family's Four Phoenixes, Heavenly Horned Ant, and others, A large group rushed over. When they received news of Shi Hao's return, they were all shocked.
"Shi brat, you came back, yet you didn't show yourselves before us?" The little rabbit even more so cried out with wa wa sounds. It was as if she never grew up. Ever since Shi Hao first met her, she always looked like she was in her pre-teens, white like jade, silver hair hanging to her waist, large eyes like rubies.
Exiled Immortal, Ten Crown King, Shi Yi, Six Crown King Ning Chuan and the others also came. They were all shocked. When they heard Shi Hao came back alive, all of them were moved.
Apart from this, Great Xu Tuo, Daoist Qi Gu and others also came.
Even Wang Family and Jin Family's people also came, for example, Wang Xi and Jin Zhan came together. They were too shocked, never expecting Shi Hao to make it through.
"Completely a monster! So many days passed, yet he can still return alive, managing to wait until Meng Tianzheng rescued him!" These were the words of Wang Family's people. They all rushed over quickly.
It was because the item Shi Hao brought back was extremely important, making all great powers moved. All of them wanted to understand more.
"Shi brat, you really are alive! Your life really is stubborn!" The little rabbit cried out in an exaggerated manner, running over. It was because right now, she already saw Shi Hao.
As for the Heavenly Horned Ant, he even more so screamed out, turning into a streak of light, rushing over. Meanwhile, there was also an Emperor Butterfly who rushed over with it, also dazzling with brilliance.
"Shi Hao, you… really aren't simple! You actually made it through!" Cao Yusheng cried out.
So many people hurried over, but when Shi Hao saw Cao Yusheng, he was immediately shaken. He wouldn't forget the people and events that happened in Ancient Burial Region.
That person, the Cao Yusheng after endless years, was an old friend who emerged alone after being buried for who knew how many generations.
What was going to happen many years from now? Shi Hao had no idea even now!
The Cao Yusheng before his eyes gradually merged with that fat daoist. Shi Hao was shaken, there were many things that were too hard to say.
At the same time, he looked towards the little rabbit. One had to know that after endless years passed, Cao Yusheng seriously warned him to properly take care of the Lunar Jade Rabbit, because the future her 'disappeared'.
"Have you gone stupid? Why aren't you saying anything? Why do you look so silly after seeing us?" The Lunar Jade Rabbit teased.
In reality, they were all extremely moved, overjoyed that Shi Hao was able to return alive. However, they didn't want to show their past worry, so all of them were acting lively here.
"We all previously left the city, wishing to save you from Heavenly Beast Forest, but we were all sent back with a wave of Great Elder's sleeve!" Cao Yusheng said.
Chang Gongyan nodded from the side. Back then, the youngsters' blood were boiling, all of them wishing to rescue Huang, but they were stopped.
"Brother Huang being able to come back safely alive really is a joyous matter, one worth celebrating!" The owner of the Five Spirits War Chariot Qi Hong said while laughing greatly.
Even Ten Crown King walked over. Normally, he wasn't very close to Shi Hao, but right now, he also spoke, "I also wanted to rescue you, but I was sent back."
"Shi Hao, you are fine right?" Qing Yi appeared. After entering Imperial Pass, she had always been cultivating bitterly, always cultivating in seclusion. There were great figures giving her pointers.
It was because she seemed to have some connection with Immortal Qing Yue from the last great era. There was a flame seed that accompanied her by her side, previously projecting some of Immortal Qing Yue's 'past'.
Only recently did she come out of seclusion. When she learned of Shi Hao's matters, she was extremely worried, only today was there good news.
The witch also appeared, revealing a faint smile, exuding charm. Even now, she still stood against Qing Yi and Yue Chan.
In the three thousand provinces, there was the Heaven Mending Sect and Sky Severing Sect, while in the Nine Heavens Above, there was the Heaven Mending Dao and Sky Severing Dao, known to be long life inheritances. They were both powerful sects, comparable to long life families.
A group of people rushed over, it really was too lively here.
Shi Hao snapped back to reality, responding to them one after another, especially Qing Yi. Ever since he entered Imperial Pass, it had been a long time since they last met. Moreover, there were even some ambiguous things that happened between the two of them before.
"Just what kind of stuff did you do? Did you just find this chest, and this made the other side make such a big fuss, swarming over to surround you?" The little rabbit asked.
Shi Hao laughed loudly and said, "This is that chest. You all can examine it yourselves."
He handed it over. As a result, the group of people pushed and shoved about, all of them wishing to be the first to see it.
Hong!
Great wings swept about, Ten Crown King and Exiled Immortal faced off, both of them wishing to be the first to get their hands on it.
In the end, even Imperial Pass long life families' geniuses Tuogu Yulong and the owner of the Five Spirits War Chariot Qi Hong reached out a hand, competing with each other.
Of course, this wasn't going all out, just a type of positive exchange of pointers, extremely peaceful. They all displayed some methods.
"Wa wa, this is mine! Did you all not see that I am the first to seize it! Let me take a look first!" The Heavenly Horned Ant shouted.
When everyone saw this, they were immediately speechless. He said he seized it, but this fella was only the size of a finger, right now laying right on it!
"Turns out even being small has so many benefits…" Cao Yusheng muttered.
"If you don't want to accept it, then I'll beat you until you see stars!" The Heavenly Horned Ant cried out. With a hong sound, its golden fist enlarged, smashing into Cao Yusheng's face, sending him flying.
"Beansprout, stupid ant!" After receiving this surprise attack, Cao Yusheng cried out furiously.
"Haha…" Everyone laughed.
In the distance, Wang Xi was silent. She watched as everyone laughed and cheered, but had no way of going over. It was because the relationship between Wang Family and Shi Hao really was too terrible.
There were naturally quite a few people from Wang Family here, all of them coming for the wooden chest. They all watched quietly from the side, their expressions cold.
Jin Family's Pride of Heaven in this generation -- Jin Zhan, was also here. He inwardly released a cold snort. He was known as Heaven's Pride of a generation, one of the most powerful individuals of this generation, he never accepted Shi Hao.
However, right now, they were at a critical juncture, there was no way he could provoke the other party. This would draw the disgust of others, bringing misfortune onto himself.
Princess Yao Yue was all smiles. She gave Wang Xi a look, and then walked towards Shi Hao. She was always at odds with Wang Xi, her family supported Great Elder Meng Tianzheng greatly. The Immortal King Corpse Wrapping Cloth was precisely lent out by her family.
"Shi brat, tell us a bit about what happened, what you ended up encountering outside!" The Lunar Jade Rabbit was the one who acted with the least restraint, already asking him about what happened along the way.
The group left this mountain region, heading towards a flourishing place, preparing to hold a greatest feast.
"I've seen everything that could be seen, Gu Clan's inheritor, Emperor Clan's so-called young great one, He Wushuang's descendant, there were even more countless old monsters."
Shi Hao sighed inwardly. He even saw supreme beings, faced them under close quarters.
"How did you live? Did you fight with them? How many did you kill?" one of the Wei Family's Four Phoenixes asked out of curiosity.
"I really killed quite a few of them. If I include the ones that I indirectly killed, there is at least a few thousand I reckon." Shi Hao said.
"What?" Many people cried out in alarm.
It was because they knew that the other side were all experts. This number really was a bit terrifying.
If they knew that Shi Hao killed many Self Release Realm great cultivators, then they would definitely be even more shocked!
Shi Hao didn't plan to hide anything, because he still wanted to absolve Imperial Pass' Stone Clan of their sin. He needed accomplishments, so he wanted people to know about these contributions.
As such, he began to tell his story.
"Ah, you even encountered the so-called undead knights? That's crazy!" A group of people cried out in alarm. They didn't understand those creatures at all, never hearing anything about them.
"You killed them well!" When they heard Shi Hao talk about how he killed a few lions from the Fearless Lion bloodline, the group of creatures clapped joyously, all of them moved.
It was because the past events with the Fearless Lion really were too hateful. They guided the enemy inside, causing the Nine Heavens Ten Earths to suffer greatly.
"Didn't they say that one of them retraced his ancestry, becoming even more powerful than the ones you killed? Did he not die in the end?" Someone asked.
"It's right here." Shi Hao released the golden lion, presenting it before everyone's eyes.
When the golden lion appeared, ti was a bit stupefied. Then, it glared furiously at everyone, because everyone criticized it greatly, not treating it with any respect.
"Behave yourself, you are my mount, and these are all my friends." Shi Hao gave its head a strike.
Everyone was shocked and envious. If one rode this type of unique beast onto the battlefield, just how extraordinary would they look?
"You killed many experts, even fought with someone from an Emperor Clan?" Quite a few people were shocked.
In the distance, Jin Zhan sneered, and then said with a snort to himself, "Who knows if what he says is true or fake? Who knows, he might have even been taken captive!"
The others heard this, but they didn't dare clash with him.
There were older generation figures from Jin Family here. They inwardly stopped him, not letting him act rashly.
Moreover, right at this time, an elder with great status from jin Family walked over, saying, "Was this wooden chest brought back by you from outside?"
"Correct." Shi Hao turned around. He gave this person a look, even though he wasn't happy with Jin Family's people, he still replied.
"Then that's good, this chest is related to too much. Now that we confirmed this, please hand it over for the dignified and virtuous seniors in the city to research!" That person said.

Chapter 1537 - Beat Down
When Jin Family's elder said this, the originally lively scene immediately became much more quiet. They all turned around.
This place seemed to have become a bit stiff, because this really did ruin the atmosphere considerably. Jin Family's people actually dared to make this type of demand at this time.
Of course, there were some people who believed that this was perhaps reasonable, because the rotten wooden chest was related to too much, for the public's sake, Shi Hao needed to hand it over for the various clans' elders to research.
However, most of them sensed the Jin Family's elder did this on purpose, doing this with the intention of oppressing Huang.
It was because the disturbance Shi Hao produced was a bit too great, making the foreign side lead great armies to surround Heavenly Beast Forest, to the extent where it even resulted in a great battle between supreme beings. Meanwhile, the 'perpetrator' came back safely, so all attention was concentrated on him right now.
Previously, almost ninety percent of people believed that Shi Hao was going to die outside the pass, destined to die an untimely death. However now, it was a completely different matter.
Forget about everything else, just Shi Hao's vigor alone, the bravery to overturn Desolate border left Imperial Pass in shock, he really was stunning.
Let alone the fact that he successfully brought the wooden chest back!
Even the other side was dead set on obtaining this thing. Now that he seized it, bringing it back to Imperial Pass, this was a huge matter, as well as a tremendous contribution.
Regardless of what happened, Shi Hao had to be granted a reward. He moved unstoppably through Desolate Border, drawing sighs of admiration from all clans.
Jin Family's people coming out at this time was clearly to suppress his 'brilliance', delivering a targeted blow. To be more precise, they wanted to weaken his limelight, suppress his fame.
This brought about the dissatisfaction of some people, for example, the Heavenly Horned Ant, Cao Yusheng, and Chang Gongyan, all of their expressions changing.
Qing Yi spoke up, saying, "Shi Hao brought back such an important wooden chest, his contributions so great, it could even be said to be an extraordinary achievement, no matter what you think of it, it needs to be respected. Meanwhile, you hold this type of attitude, presenting this type of appearance, are you not scared of drawing cold looks from the masses?"
These words were calm, but their weight wasn't light, making the expression of Jin Family's elder immediately change.
"Well spoken! Huang risked life and limb, slaughtering left and right outside Desolate Border, bringing back a supreme treasure, yet you are so cold, what are you trying to say?" Cao Yusheng also questioned fiercely.
There were some people who were upset, complaining about injustice.
There weren't only youngsters here, some older generation figures from various clans were also startled, rushing over, wishing to learn more about the situation.
When they saw this, many of them revealed strange expressions.
Of course, there were naturally some who were partial to Jin Family, the followers and families that had close relationships with them.
"Senior Jin doesn't have any bad intentions, it is you who is too sensitive, overthinking things." Someone said.
"Cough!" An old woman even more so coughed, saying, "You should just hand over the wooden chest. We will ask the higher ups to research it."
Those affiliated with Jin Family spoke up one after another. Even though they admitted Shi Hao made contributions, they still demanded the wooden chest, moreover pressuring him to do so.
Their attitudes were clearly the same, which was matching the tone of the Jin Family elder who spoke out before, wishing to suppress Shi Hao's brilliance no matter what.
Chang Gongyan spoke up, speaking seriously, "If everyone here was like you all, who would even be willing to risk their lives? Huang clearly returned with achievements, yet you all treat him like a sinner, this cold, putting on such airs. Who gave you all this authority?"
"Youngster, you are overthinking. We do not have selfish intentions, just that things are pressing, needing to invite various experts to study this wooden chest's secrets together."
The Jin Family elder who spoke up first spoke again. His name was Jin Yi, a great cultivator who had already reached the Self Release Realm for some time.
At this level, he could naturally overlook the masses. At the very least, he was definitely a great expert in Imperial Pass.
"You still have the nerve to say you have no selfish motives, can't you just be a bit more modest? Ordering people around like this, aren't you all just jealous of Huang? You want to beat him down, it really is angering me to death. Utterly shameless!" The Lunar Jade Rabbit was even more direct. Even though she was extremely tender and pure looking, silver hair soft, large eyes bright, she wasn't docile at all, crying out with wa wa sounds.
"Heng, I admit that Huang has established quite the merit this time. "Jin Yi released a cold snort, speaking like this. Then, he looked at the group of youngsters coldly and said, "However, the trouble he has provoked isn't small!"
"No sense of shame, you clearly want to suppress Shi Hao, what trouble not small, why don't you point it out, tell us a bit!" The Lunar Jade Rabbit flipped out.
No one expected this little girl's words to be this fierce, actually clashing head-on with a great cultivator, moreover, her words not showing any restraint.
Shi Hao didn't say anything, just watching. It was because he had confidence, wishing to see what Jin Family really wanted to do.
"Senior, speaking like this really is a bit lacking in fairness. Just what kind of trouble has Shi Hao provoked?" Qing Yi still remained calm, asking like this.
"You all know, for the sake of him, what kind of price Senior Meng Tianzheng paid, returning seriously injured. For the sake of a trifling Void Dao Realm cultivator, a supreme being almost died, is this kind of trouble not great?" Jin Yi said with a loud voice.
When they heard these words, a few people became indignant, feeling like he was purposely nitpicking.
The Heavenly Horned Ant was the first to erupt, berating, "Did your Jin Family's supreme being come to Imperial Pass, leave the city? They never thought of providing rescue, right? Now, you all are putting on this type of righteous appearance, even having the nerve to speak nonsense about supreme beings in danger!"
"Senior Meng has a master and disciple relationships with Huang, he went out of the city to rescue Huang, successfully returning, Huang even brought back the wooden chest that made the other side go crazy! This is originally an extremely joyous situation that is worth celebrating, yet you all are looking for bones in an egg, looking for trouble when there isn't any, what are your intentions?" Cao Yusheng also shouted.
"Is there something wrong with your eyes?" The Lunar Jade Rabbit was the one most daring to speak out, directly berating, "The other side sent out a massive army all for this chest, even many supreme beings sent out, this alone enough to prove just how major this affair was. Meanwhile, our Imperial Pass should have went to fight a decisive battle, dispatch out elites to seize back this wooden chest. In the end, Senior Meng, out of fear that our clans might suffer losses that were too severe, left the pass alone, taking the risk, fighting against supreme beings alone. This is originally a glorious story, why does it seem completely sour coming out of your mouth? Your Jin Clan's Jin Taijun not leaving the pass is one thing, yet you still berate others, what is the meaning of this?!"
The little rabbit screamed with wa wa sounds. Forget about the youngsters revealing cold expressions, even the older generation figures of other clans frowned, their expressions not that good when looking at Jin Yi.
"Heh heh, the young will always be hot-blooded. Precisely, this is a good thing." Wang Family's people walked out, an elder speaking. He tried to dissolve the situation for Jin Yi, saying, "Brother Jin was just a bit anxious, his words couldn't help but become a bit heavy. The main thing is that he was worried for Senior Meng's safety. The loss of a supreme being is too great, they are the greatest force protecting my Imperial Pass after all."
When Wang Family spoke like this, just how many people would believe them? It was because many people knew how much they loathed Shi Hao and Meng Tianzheng.
"Right, Brother Jin had good intentions, for the sake of a healthy environment, he was worried for Senior Meng's condition, which is why his words were a bit heavier." One of Jin Family's followers parroted, speaking like this.
Meanwhile, in Jin Family's direct line of descent, there was a middle-aged man whose eyes were like lightning, also speaking. He looked towards Shi Hao, saying, "Youngster, you really are calm. The people here really are starting to develop some misunderstandings. If you explained yourself a bit earlier, it wouldn't have ended like this. Could it be that you feel that your contributions aren't small, becoming overconfident, now feeling our words are beneath you?"
When he heard these words, Shi Hao no longer remained silent. He gave Jin Family a cold look, saying, "Shameless, is there a need for me to explain myself to you all? All of you really think of yourselves as infallible!"
"You really are arrogant. Do you think that just because you established great merit, you dare look down on us like this?!" The middle-aged man Jin Kun shouted.
He was also a great cultivator at the Self Release Realm.
From the side, Jin Yi's face immediately fell, saying, "Youngster, no matter where you are, no matter what kind of great achievements you have, your seniors are still to be respected."
It was clear that these two were both super experts, as well as the two most powerful people from Jin Family, so they somewhat targeted Shi Hao.
Shi Hao seriously suspected that the family who attacked him in Heavenly Beast Forest might be Jin Family. He had reason to suspect this.
It was because Jin Family treated him so terribly as soon as he came back, making him develop many associations.
"The worth of a person is something one understands themselves. If one doesn't want any face themselves, would others leave them any?" Shi Hao said with an ice-cold voice.
Everyone was shocked, even Cao Yusheng and the others never expected Shi Hao to be this powerful. This was but a Self Release Realm great cultivator he was facing, yet he didn't lower his head at all!
At the same time, a few people flew over, all of them youngsters, carrying news.
"Things don't seem too good!" Cao Yusheng walked up. He tugged at Shi Hao's sleeves, secretly transmitting sound, saying, "The soul lamp outside Senior Meng Tianzheng's giant palace where he is secluded has dimmed considerably! I believe the reason why Jin Family dares act out is precisely because of this!"
Shi Hao's mind fell. The so-called soul lamp indicated Great Elder's current condition.
However, soon afterwards, he calmed down again. It was because before leaving, Great Elder had clearly told him that he was fine, on the contrary, trying to carry out a transformation!
Jin Family's great cultivators had been opposed by Shi Hao. not given any face, making many people from this clan reveal cold intent and anger. At this time, Jin Zhan spoke.
"Huang, you've crossed the line. Do you know who you were talking to just now?" Jin Zhan's presence was powerful, pupils shining, incredibly intimidating.
Shi Hao turned around, looking towards this genius from Jin Family who was known to have the best talents, someone no one could match. He coldly responded, looking at him and saying, "Do you know who you are talking to?!"
