Chapter 1773 - Swan Saint
“Does anyone want to meet up and head down to the three thousand provinces together? Let’s go and look around Void God Realm, see that miserable scene of the so-called Immortal Domain elite beaten until all of his teeth were knocked out.”
In the Nine Heavens above, Cao Yusheng was shouting out, calling for friends to join in the three thousand provinces’ action, a great flame burning within him. When he heard the news from Void God Realm, he became extremely excited.
Comparatively speaking, the golden little Heavenly Horned Ant was a bit more direct, muttering that Shi Hao was definitely fine, his cultivation not ruined, that it was him who beat down Yi Hai.
“Hahaha, this feels so good! That Yi Hai thinks that he is all that, challenging everyone, arrogant and bossy, I already wanted to deal with him for quite some time. In the end, my brother Huang beat him miserably. Heh, I heard that his mouth was smacked until all of his teeth fell out, even the bones of his body flew out, slow-cooked into porridge.”
It had to be said that the little Heavenly Horned Ant was savage, just that direct. The others were still half doubting it, not sure who it was that took action, yet he was already sure that it was Shi Hao who did this.
“That is definitely his style, there is no mistake!” The Heavenly Horned Ant slapped his chest, clinging to his view.
The group of people were all speechless. Why did they feel like this ant was talking as if he was the one who did this, acting ridiculously proud.
“Princess Yao Yue, I’ll help you look for your husband’s family, let’s go. Don’t participate in whatever single-elimination tournament anymore, let’s quickly head to the three thousand provinces.” This was the message Cao Yusheng sent to the princess of the long life imperial court.
“Yue Chan, Qing Yi, did you two really become one? It’s time to come out of seclusion, see an old friend in Void God Realm.” It had to be said that Cao Yusheng really needed a spanking.
“Dual pupils brat, your brother has revived. You’re invited to fight another battle.”
“Ten Crown King, my brother has captured Yi Hai, do you dare beat down an Immortal Domain guest?”
“Jin Zhan, Wang Xi, Wang Shi, if you have the guts, then come down to the Void God Realm for a fight!”
It really was ‘people who come to join in on the action don’t care about things getting out of hand’, some of it because of Cao Yusheng and the little Heavenly Horned Ant’s shouting, some of it others’ hollering, sending out fake information, releasing false news.
The various lands all became lively, inviting well-known figures to Void God Realm to see for themselves who that vicious individual was.
“I can tell you very confidently that Huang has already been crippled. If you want to talk about how he is right now, that is nothing more than a joke. There is no way he can appear again!”
This was the judgment of Immortal Palace’s expert, extremely sure, clearly stating that Huang has already become a thing of the pass, never to appear in the world of cultivation again, now completely a mortal.
It was because when they offered sacrifices, they were told this by the secluded ruined immortal once again, receiving a definitive answer that after Huang suffered from the Immortal Breaking Curse, he was destined to fall without exception, that there would be nothing unexpected.
The various lands were all noisy, all of them discussing this matter. Many people moved, quite a few people gathering near Spirit Realm’s gates, waiting to head down together with the others.
This great vicious being left them with apprehension, normal people didn’t dare head down alone. They were waiting to set out when there were enough people.
Towards these things, Shi Hao didn’t pay any more attention to it, because he also foresaw it happening. He left it all in Bird Grandpa and Coin Elder’s hands.
Right now, he began to search the great wilderness with Hairy Ball, looking around, trying to find that mountain treasure.
Back then when the mountain treasure appeared, auspicious light surged, the scene great. It had previously drawn the Qiongqi, Heaven Swallowing Sparrow, Zhuyan, and little red bird over, fighting intensely over it.
Back then, Willow Deity had just woken up from its dying state, so it didn’t participate.
When he thought of Willow Deity, Shi Hao released another sigh. Willow Deity’s entire tree body was destroyed, turned into a seed, undergoing rebirth… then it suffered from mysterious lightning, struggling between life and death again, unknown what it ended up provoking.
From Immortal Ancient Great Era until this era, it had experienced several ‘reincarnations’, going from the most powerful state back to the weakest, starting over from the beginning.
“What kind of path is the Willow Deity’s? Just where is it going, what will its final conclusion be like?” Shi Hao thought about the secrets in the place Willow Deity ultimately disappeared into, which was also the place where the lord of the restricted region suffered. What was there behind that dam?
Back then, when Willow Deity resided in Stone Village, its own unmatched golden body was completely destroyed, forced to start over from the bottom. The villagers all knew that in the first few years, it was entirely black, not a single leaf on it, completely withered, lacking the slightest bit of life force, as if it had died.
Only several years later did it revive from the weakest state, producing a tender shoot, barely managing to survive.
In the following few years, it slowly cultivated, gathering some power.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t have had to avoid the four mountain treasure seeking giants.
One could see just how terrible its state back then was.
It was clear that this great wilderness was already no longer the region near Stone Village, but rather the edge of Desolate Region. There were craggy strange stones everywhere, rocky mountains towering around.
Shi Hao discovered a bird’s nest. It was extremely large, and also extraordinary. It was built from ancient wood, located at the peak of a stone mountain. Hazy spiritual essence was released from it.
“Heaven Swallowing Sparrow’s nest?” Shi Hao was shocked.
Even though many years had passed, he still didn’t forget that vicious bird, the impression too deep. This was its aura.
However, the Heaven Swallowing Sparrow had already died, so the significance of coming here wasn’t great. Shi Hao turned around to give the Zhuyan a look.
The Zhuyan shook its head, saying, “You should know that back then, the mountain treasure was obtained by me, but because I was seriously injured, my true self was hidden in the mire, and as a result, the mountain treasure was ultimately lost.”
The Zhuyan lost its memories back then, forgetting too much, only in recent years did it recover. It highly suspected that the Heaven Swallowing Sparrow obtained the treasure in the end, because it had visited the mire later on, discovering the Heaven Swallowing Sparrow’s ruined feathers there.
Of course, it wasn’t a hundred percent sure that it was this vicious bird who obtained the mountain treasure, after all, they had fought intensely. For a vicious feather to be stuck in its body, then brought to that hiding place, was completely normal.
“The Heaven Swallowing Sparrow no longer exist, but I noticed that an extremely powerful individual had visited this place before.” Hairy Ball led Shi Hao into the nest.
This place was extremely quiet, spiritual energy hazy, created from golden silk grass. There were praying mats here, as well as some vessels, a quiet land of cultivation.
“My clan’s Seventy-Two Transformations Technique is especially famous, but we have another divine ability that can restore something to its original condition, search a place’s recent scenes.” The Zhuyan said.
It displayed it here. In the end, a faint figure appeared in the Heaven Swallowing Sparrow’s nest, an elder with creased skin, hair snow-white, indistinct, but he really was here.
Someone had visited the Heaven Swallowing Sparrow’s nest, his cultivation rather strong.
“My skills are not enough, unable to confirm who this person was.” The Zhuyan sighed. However, this was the most important clue he found.
When Shi Hao heard this, he was a bit shocked. It seemed like there were still some powerful individuals who survived the past’s eight regions’ great chaos, deities that weren’t weak left in this world.
“You should give it a try.” The Zhuyan passed that ancient method to Shi Hao, having him display it here.
Honglong!
Wind and lightning swept about. When Shi Hao displayed it, ghost figures appeared everywhere, even some irrelevant void figures appearing, making this place appear sinister and overcast.
The Zhuyan was shocked. He discovered that right now, Shi Hao’s cultivation was shooting straight up, going from true deity to heavenly deity, and then quickly shooting up.
“Just how deep is your cultivation?” It asked. This was also what the outside world wanted to know. Many suspected that he was in the True Deity Realm, possibly reaching the boundary of heavenly deity level.
Now, it seemed like everyone was underestimating him. He was far greater than that level.
“Self release.” Shi Hao replied.
The Zhuyan was stupefied, feeling indescribably shaken.
In the end, it revealed a strange expression. That little brat already reached this level? It truly was absolutely terrifying. Forget about the lower realm, even when the heavens were scoured, just how many creatures had this type of growth rate?
“You’ve already broken the legends, forged an unmatched path.” The Zhuyan sighed. He knew that Shi Hao’s future path was not something outsiders could see through, destined to be extraordinary beyond compare. At the same time, it would also be full of difficulties, this type of individual would never experience peace.
“Yi, it became clear. This is also a demonic bird?” The Zhuyan was shocked.
Shi Hao also revealed a look of surprise. That elder became more and more clear, white hair sparse, incredibly aged. In the end, it turned into a swan!
The past was recreated, the former scenes restored, moreover revealing his original body.
“Impossible!” Hairy Ball’s expression changed.
“Who is it? You recognize it?” Shi Hao was shocked.
“This is Swan Saint!” Hairy Ball replied.
Shi Hao was stunned, and then remembered. Wasn’t this the Heaven Swallowing Sparrow’s master?
There were rumors that the Heaven Swallowing Sparrow received the Swan Saint’s guidance, which was why its cultivation gradually became great. However, during the Swan Saint’s later years, it instead devoured that swan.
It could be said that the Heaven Swallowing Sparrow’s reputation in Desolate Region was extremely notorious. Many people hated it, calling it a despicable being lacking moral conduct, but it was extremely strong, no one able to deal with it.
“Interesting, a dead person actually appeared here, bringing away the mountain treasure.” Shi Hao saw that this person had a rectangular shaped bone piece that was spotlessly white like jade.
The Zhuyan insisted that this was what it had obtained back then, only to lose it immediately after.
“This individual’s cultivation isn’t weak.” Shi Hao said.
“This old fella really is sinister and frightening. They all said that it was devoured by the Heaven Swallowing Sparrow in its later years, yet it was still alive.” The Zhuyan sucked in a cold breath of air.
However, now, a Self Release Realm Shi Hao returned, so it wasn’t all that worried either.
“We are going to search for the Swan Saint’s past cultivation spots, his place of death, where he liked to go. After collecting all types of information, I refuse to believe that he can’t be found.” Shi Hao said.
“I agree. I didn’t expect us to make such a great discovery. We are going to see the mountain treasure soon!” Hairy Ball said.
