Perfect World

Shi Hao Resurfaces

He was someone from the Immortal Mountain and a Formation Arrangement Realm expert, yet his right arm was cut off by a streak of sword energy. That immediately frightened all of the experts here!

“Is the Nine-Headed Lion that strong? With a broken sword, could it injure a Formation Arrangement Realm king-level figure?” Someone cried out in admiration, not daring to believe this.

“Something’s not right. That sword energy appeared from the void. Even though its trajectory overlapped with the broken sword, it shouldn’t have been released by the Nine-Headed Lion,” an elder said quietly.

In fact, he wasn’t the only one who noticed the strangeness. Those who had reached the Formation Arrangement Realm all began to doubt themselves. That strike was so fierce. If it were them, would they have been able to stop it?

In the distance, Shi Hao lowered his hand. Just now, it was he who released two streaks of heaven-reaching sword energy, which was the sword intent of an ancient great figure that he comprehended from the beast skin.

A stalk of grass could hack down the sun, moon, and stars. The thought of that profound and terrifying cultivation realm alone made one’s mind tremble!

This was the first time he displayed this type of sword intent. As expected, it was incomparably sharp. He didn’t take action again. Teaching the middle-aged man a lesson was enough because they might have distant blood relations.

Without truly understanding the situation, Shi Yi didn’t want to unleash a great slaughter out of fear of drawing unnecessary trouble when he went to the Mysterious Region in the future. If he killed a few people from his mother’s side, there might be trouble.

The middle-aged man from Immortal Mountain’s face became pale. He stared at the void in disbelief. This sword energy was so strange. It had no roots or origins. How did it come out?

The most important thing was that the power was too great. He couldn’t defend against it at all. The sword hacked at his waist, almost cutting him in half. This was a warning! The other sword cut off one of his arms, and that was a punishment.

Who was that? Who dared to treat him like this? The middle-aged man was furious, and his eyes were intimidating. He came from the Immortal Mountain, which represented the world’s highest level of inheritance!

“How bold! Do you want to make the Immortal Mountain your enemy…” He clenched his teeth, eyes burning with anger.

The Nine-Headed Lion roared, its golden pupils also shining. In addition, it spat out brilliant golden flames from its mouth, wrapping around the broken sword before he hacked down with it again.

“That’s so valiant!” Everyone cried out because many people didn’t see anything strange. They thought that the Nine-Headed Lion hacked off one of the middle-aged man’s arms.

There was a whoosh. The middle-aged man had just ascended the arena. He couldn’t evade in time at such a close distance and was brushed by the sword radiance. A terrifying wound appeared on his body, and blood gushed out.

He hurriedly flew backward. He had suffered grave injuries several times in a row, which was such a great loss. That was truly something that had never happened before.

He felt sullen inside. Normally, when Immortal Mountain’s creatures came out, no one dared to offend them. Yet today, not only were there people who opposed him, but they even wanted to kill him. He was frustrated.

However, he clearly couldn’t continue fighting now. He knew that if he dared to attack again, he might die here. The mysterious sword energy just now was too terrifying.

“This won’t do. I have to go get my holy artifact!” He was inwardly furious. He brought the broken arm with him, landing on the ground and turning around to leave. He would definitely suffer greatly if he stayed here.

The big red bird with the cheap mouth greeted him enthusiastically, “Hey, Immortal Mountain’s expert, are you leaving just like that? Weren’t you so arrogant just now?”

“Evil creature, you’re so insolent!” The middle-aged man glared at it, and with a swing of his sleeve, he disappeared from the courtyard.

If a king wanted to leave, who dared stop him?

A few people from the Immortal Mountain were still here, and all of them felt humiliated. They quickly left as well, and just like that, the disturbance temporarily ended.

In fact, the Nine-Headed Lion wanted to take action. It had even brought out the black broken sword, but it was stopped by Huo Ling’er’s uncle.

This old prince was troubled. Even though he was dissatisfied with Immortal Mountain, he still didn’t dare to offend them too much. After all, that was an unmatched ancient sect that could overlook all regions.

Before Shi Hao even went to meet the Nine-Headed Lion, he heard a wave of noise.

“Who are you trying to fool? It’s just a piece of broken stone, yet you dare call it a sun stone? You even want us to use holy artifacts to exchange for it. Why don’t you just rob us instead?!” Someone shouted angrily.

There was more than one courtyard here, and many people had come. Those who wanted to chat or make friends could choose for themselves. There would be fine wine and delicacies wherever they went.

However, there were no wine dishes on the jade table in this courtyard. On the table were all kinds of precious artifacts and materials. Many cultivators were watching and exchanging goods.

“Hurry up and get that stone!” Within Shi Hao’s hair, the little pagoda swayed and spoke to him. It was clear that it discovered something good.

Shi Hao was surprised. Even though the pagoda was quite expensive to use, at the crucial moment, it could activate its divine might and could even stop chaotic magical artifacts. It was worth investing in this “bottomless pit”.

He quickly walked into that courtyard, fearing that if he went too late, others would obtain the stone.

“That stone!” The little pagoda instructed Shi Hao that he had to seize that pitch-black stone.

“How many times will you take action for that stone?” Shi Hao asked, not buying it right away.

“Once!” The little pagoda was extremely direct.

“Who are you trying to fool? One look and I can tell that that stone is extraordinary. It has to be worth at least three times, right?” He bargained.

“No matter how good it is, can it be better than chaotic earth?” The little pagoda said calmly.

Shi Hao was speechless. He didn’t bargain with the pagoda in the past and felt he had wasted a lot of opportunities. He always felt like the pagoda wasn’t sincere at all.

“I helped you resist that divine disk in the Void God Realm. Do you know what it is? If I told you, even if you used up all of the heavenly treasures, it still wouldn’t be enough for me to resist it once,” said the little pagoda when it saw Shi Hao’s reluctance.

“Alright. Once, then,” Shi Hao said softly. Then, he squeezed his way through the crowd.

There were many tattered things on the white jade table, all of them fragments of ancient magical artifacts. They looked like they had existed for a long time, but some were still releasing astonishing fluctuations. Among them, there was a black stone that was placed in an extremely conspicuous place.

“Good stuff! This is definitely a holy artifact, but unfortunately, it’s broken,” someone sighed. He picked up a bronze piece from the white jade table and rubbed it with his hand.

Meanwhile, Shi Hao was also tempted. The things on this stone table were all extraordinary and were definitely left behind by an ancient great power. However, they were all broken.

“Even though the magical artifacts were shattered, this sun stone is complete.” The owner of these things was an old man with a goatee and a shrewd appearance.

“Don’t speak nonsense. Isn’t this just a piece of earthflame stone? You call it a sun stone? Do you think everyone else is stupid? Are you here to swindle others?” Someone sneered with disdain.

The little old man laughed dryly and said, “My friend, you can’t say that. These are heavenly treasures dug up from the ruins. Do you see these magical artifacts? There are divine artifact fragments inside. That was definitely the cave of an ancient great figure, and this stone was dug up from the same place. How could it be an ordinary refining material like earth fire stone?”

“It’s not like we can’t recognize all types of precious materials. This is definitely a stone you found nearby when you dug up the cave, just to make up the numbers.”

“If it really is a Sun Stone, would you sell it? That is a true ‘heavenly material’. Don’t try to fool us.”

The little old man laughed dryly, but he was also a bit depressed. This was indeed dug out from that cave, and he had already carefully examined it. It was indeed a piece of earthfire stone.

Shi Hao picked up the pitch-black stone. It felt a bit warm in his hands, but after carefully examining it, he didn’t find anything special. It really was just a piece of earthfire stone.

The little old man immediately perked up and said, “You have such good taste. You finally discovered that this is a heavenly material from outside this region, right? It’s good stuff! You don’t need to use a holy artifact to exchange for it. Just a Formation Arrangement Realm magical artifact is enough.”

“When did the price of earthflame stones increase? Why didn’t I know that?” Shi Hao asked. The people around him roared with laughter, making the little old man feel extremely embarrassed.

Shi Hao secretly used that dual-pupil to look into the stone. His expression froze because he saw a scarlet sphere at the center of the earthflame stone, which almost burned his eyes.

He sighed inwardly. He wasn’t a dual-pupiled individual, so he had to cultivate the Heavenly Eye in the future. Otherwise, how many good things would he miss out on?

“This is a type of pearl from the Northern Sea. It should be enough for this earthfire stone, right?” Shi Hao said, handing over a pearl.

“Just barely.” The little old man’s smile was extremely crafty. This pearl had long exceeded the value of earthflame stones. He quickly took it and gave the earthflame stone to Shi Hao.

“Is this really a sun stone?” Shi Hao asked the little pagoda.

“Correct. It’s indeed a sun that was struck down by someone, and it’s a top-level divine sun.” The sparkling bone pagoda transmitted sound through his hair.

Shi Hao was shocked. Just how astonishing of a strength was that? Someone struck down the sun! The ancient great figures were shocking!

He held this black stone in his hand, and as expected, there was a mark on it as if it were left behind by a sharp weapon. He closed his eyes and carefully sensed it, and his brows immediately twitched. It contained a terrifying sword intent!

“Don’t devour it yet. Let me study it for a few days!” Shi Hao said.

“Hey, it’s you!” Suddenly, a few youngsters stopped and looked surprised. Several days ago, they met Shi Hao in that floating palace.

“He might be… Shi Hao?!” A female cultivator cried out.

That drew everyone’s attention. Many cultivators looked over, and then through their whispers, they learned that this youth might be Shi Hao who had been dormant for more than a year.

“What? That Shi Hao from the battle between the two Shi brothers has reappeared?!”

Those words triggered a huge commotion within this manor. Many people hurried over to have a look.

A dark cloud rushed over. The Black Cloud Race’s young experts had already left to call for reinforcements. An elder came back with them.

“Is it him?” The elder asked.

“That’s him. A few days ago, he humiliated our clan’s experts, and today, he even allowed the Nine-Headed Lion to attack people,” said a youngster, his eyes flickering with vicious light.

The elder didn’t say anything else. He reached out, trying to grab Shi Hao.

At the same time, a fiery red bull arrived from the void, bringing endless fiery light with it as it descended. It glared at Shi Hao like a tiger watching its prey. It was a king-level figure.

“Go away!”

When faced with a king-level figure’s attack, Shi Hao only had those words.

The elder from the Black Cloud Race was furious. No matter what, he was still a Formation Arrangement Realm expert. He admitted that if they were at the same level, he wouldn’t be the teenager’s match.

However, this youth didn’t have the symbol fluctuations of the Formation Arrangement Realm, so the elder tried to grab him by force.

Smack!

Shi Hao slapped out, his hand colliding with that elder’s hand. After a crisp sound, there was a thump, and blood splashed. That elder’s palm exploded.

Everyone was shocked. That king-level figure was so aggressive, yet in the end, his palm was destroyed as soon as they exchanged blows. How astonishing was that? Could that youth be Shi Hao?

“It’s definitely Shi Hao! It’s been verified! Apart from him, who else could do that? He suppressed the older generation despite his young age!”

This courtyard immediately erupted with noise. Everyone was shocked.

After a year and a half, Shi Hao reappeared, leaving many people excited and shocked.

With everything that had happened, Shi Hao revealed his true appearance. He stood there with his hands behind his back, not fearing the creatures of outer regions.

“It really is him!” Someone cried out in alarm.

At this moment, not only this courtyard but the entire manor became noisy. Many cultivators quickly rushed over.

“It was you who killed my clan’s genius in Fire Nation’s ancestral land!” A middle-aged man rushed over. He was a snake from his waist down. He was an expert in the Flaming Python Race. He stood shoulder to shoulder with that king-level Flaming Bull and shouted loudly.

“If you don’t want to die, then get lost!” Shi Hao said. He never showed any respect to people who bore hostility toward him.

“Shi Hao, I don’t care if you are the wasteland region’s supreme youth. By humiliating Immortal Mountain, your future is ruined.” The middle-aged man who lost an arm returned with an elder following behind him.

“What did you say?!” Shi Hao had a special feeling toward Immortal Mountain. He had been restraining himself this entire time, but when he saw that attitude, he took a step forward immediately.

The middle-aged man was shocked and quickly backed up. However, he discovered that this youth was looking down on him the entire time while floating in the air. He was less than a meter away from him, his eyes terrifyingly cold.

Whoosh!

The middle-aged man coughed out large amounts of blood. Suppressed by this aura, his chest felt as if it was struck by lightning. He almost fell onto the ground.

Everyone was shocked. This youth’s divine might was truly intimidating. He didn’t take action, and just his aura alone was enough to force Immortal Mountain’s king-level figure to cough out blood. The man was seriously injured.
