Chapter 1975 - Activating the Origin Ancient Artifact
This was a ruined seed that carried chaotic energy, but it still didn’t die. It still had life force, still had life fluctuations.
“Dao friend!”
A voice sounded. Then, a seed flew out, appearing from the pool.
“Primal Chaos Lotus Seed?” Shi Hao revealed a strange expression. He really found an ancient seed! It was actually hidden here.
It was clear that back then, the reason why Qing Xian encountered it was because it drew her over.
“My body has already become ruined, suffering disaster again after rebirth. Even after slumbering for an endless amount of time, I am still at my last gasp.” The green lotus seed said.
Shi Hao had already remained in Immortal Domain for so many years, so he long understood many things. There was indeed a stalk of Primal Chaos Green Lotus, this individual a giant. However, in the end, it fell, its whereabouts unknown.
Who would have thought that it was actually here.
“Do you need my help?” Shi Hao asked.
“My injuries are in my origin imprint.” The Primal Chaos Green Lotus said with a sigh.
Shi Hao took action, seizing it. His eyes released great brilliance, staring at its source. Then, with a raise of his hand, immortal light surged, rich life force spread, wrapping around this seed.
In the end, he even more so released a drop of essence blood to nurture this seed.
Hong!
In the end, the Primal Chaos Green Lotus trembled. Its surroundings were sparkling green, filled with primal chaos, showing signs of recovery.
“Many thanks to dao friend, there are no words to describe my gratitude. As long as I am alive, no matter how many great eras it takes, I will definitely return this piece of karma.” The Primal Chaos Green Lotus said.
It was greatly shaken. How could normal immortal kings have this type of method? Not even giants could necessarily do this.
Shi Hao waved his hand and said, “I hope you can recover.”
“Dao friend, the future of this world will experience many tribulations. As a Primal Chaos Green Lotus, an innate existence, I sensed something in primal chaos. You need to be careful.” The Primal Chaos Green Lotus warned.
“I know.” Shi Hao nodded.
“Today, dao friend has granted me his own essence blood. In the future, no matter where dao friend is, even if you underwent rebirth, reincarnating into another life, if I am still in this world, I will definitely return it with primal chaos essence blood, help you step towards the absolute peak once more.”
This was a type of vow, involving ancient incantations. It was taking the initiative to bind karma around them.
Shi Hao chuckled, but didn’t say anything. Once one died, what another life was there to speak of? Was there still reincarnation?
“I would rather believe it exists. This is something that is rather helpless.” The Primal Chaos Green Lotus said.
When Shi Hao heard this, he released a sigh. These were helpless hopes!
“Dao friend, let’s part here. This descendant from my Green Lotus Clan, let’s just let her emerge and perish on her own in the lower realms. I reckon that after suffering from disaster, she won’t easily get involved in the karma of the mortal world again.” The Primal Chaos Green Lotus said.
After bidding Shi Hao goodbye, it turned into a streak of green light, piercing the void and entering the primal chaos, thus disappearing without a trace.
It was someone who had died for an endless amount of time. Back then, much karma scattered, now hidden in primal chaos. It wanted to recover, likely not emerging for another great era or two.
It was because it wanted to undergo another rebirth, so it might forget everything.
Only the imprints in its very foundation would guide its life trajectory. For it to completely awaken again, it was unknown what age that will be.
Burial Earth was still peaceful.
Shi Hao’s arrival startled the burial kings, also rousing awake Shenming and Sanzang. However, when they learned that it was Shi Hao, they all released a breath of relief.
“Another few hundred thousand years have passed in a flash. Dao friend’s name has already shaken all realms, dao friend’s reputation has even reached our secluded Burial Earth.” Burial King Huo Heng said.
Now, regardless of whether it was the foreign realm or Burial Earth, or even Immortal Domain and Realm Sea, the miraculous experiences of a certain young expert were continuously circulating about.
That person was precisely Shi Hao. It was all because of his great strength, his ability to kill giants, this naturally drawing the attention of many experts.
“Why did dao friend come here?” Burial King Han Zhuo also spoke out.
“The first reason is because I wanted to see some old friends, reminisce about past times. The second is that I want to take a look at your Origin Ancient Artifact.” Shi Hao said.
These experts’ faces all changed. Origin Ancient Artifact was something even they would avoid. Even at their level, they weren’t willing to rashly come into contact with it, yet Huang actually wanted to examine it?
“Brother Shi, you are gambling with your life here!”
“Huang, doing this is too dangerous!”
Sanzang and Shenming both advised against it.
“It is fine, I only wish to take a look, I won’t impetuously do anything. You guys should have heard that even the foreign realm’s Origin Ancient Artifact is something I already faced, yet still survived.” Shi Hao smiled.
The burial kings here all opened their mouths, wishing to say something. However, after carefully thinking about it, Huang had also come into contact with their Origin Ancient Artifact, but didn’t die.
Only, they didn’t know if he could still make it through safely after coming into contact with it a second time.
“Dao friend, it isn’t that we are being stingy, but that we are really worried that something bad might happen to you!” Burial King Huo Heng was extremely direct, telling Shi Hao that their Origin Ancient Artifact was extremely sinister.
Even the burial kings felt like it was strange, sinister, and unpredictable. It could even threaten the lives of creatures at their level!
“I am not scared!” Shi Hao said.
If he had a choice, he wouldn’t be willing to come here. However, he already lost one path, so he had to find another one to break through the king level and step on the emperor path.
Since there were rumors in the world that opening Origin Ancient Artifact might be the true emperor path, then he set his resolution to give it a try.
In the end, after the burial kings discussed things in secret, they still agreed.
However, they warned that if anything unexpected happened, he absolutely could not persist with it. At the same time, they also expressed their standpoint, that this had nothing to do with them. If something happened, he couldn’t get them involved.
“Many thanks to dao friends!” Shi Hao showed them a great bow of respect.
This time, there were five burial kings who showed up in total, meeting him face to face. After carefully discussing things, they all withdrew.
In reality, Burial Earth carried out a great migration. The kings brought many later generations with them, all of them hiding in the distant Burial Region out of fear that something huge would happen.
Shi Hao wanted to tell them that he might be able to open up Origin Ancient Artifact, but after opening his mouth, he didn’t say anything in the end.
It was because he didn’t know what would happen once he truly opened it. If there was a terrible tragedy, destroying all those present, then how would he be able to face the kings in Burial Earth?
After thinking about it, he decided to first try things out a bit and then make a decision after looking at the situation.
“I want to visit my brother first.” Shi Hao said.
He wanted to see Cao Yusheng.
Sanzang and Shenming guided him into Burial Region’s depths, paying the peacefully sleeping Cao Yusheng and the little dog a visit.
Shi Hao had previously been trapped inside his ten reincarnation imprints for five hundred thousand years, and then he entered Immortal Domain for another eight hundred thousand years, added together already more than a million years.
“You all need to live well!” Shi Hao said.
Back then, it was precisely because Cao Yusheng carried him on his back, his white hair disheveled, bringing him here together with the little dog, frantically trying to save him, that they ended up in this state.
At that time, Cao Yusheng and the little dog both entered their late years, not having much lifespan left. They were old, their blood energy drying up, but for his sake, still went crazy, roaming everywhere under the sky.
He had to protect these two old friends no matter what.
Endless immortal light surged. Shi Hao lent them a helping hand, two drops of immortal king essence blood coming out, their killing intent refined away, within them only endless essence, landing in Burial Earth.
Then, he turned around and left.
Burial Region’s Origin Ancient Artifact didn’t always remain in this world, instead only appearing once every certain period of time.
This was because there were unmatched divine abilities previously displayed by different kings.
Shi Hao arrived, heading on his way alone. He prepared to tear apart the void to see the undead knights’ Origin Ancient Artifact.
Meanwhile, behind him, many undead knights withdrew out of fear that he would stir up a great disaster.
After all, he was an immortal king now. If he stirred up a disturbance, then it would definitely be a huge matter, possibly affecting all the different realms in the world!
Chi!
Shi Hao ripped apart the void. With his current cultivation, what couldn’t he do? Not even an unmatched seal could stop him. He could even move freely through the heaven reaching lands burial kings arranged.
Hong!
He entered an ancient palace.
There was a chest here that rose and fell, flowing with nine-colored brilliance, releasing a divine rain of light. It was too resplendent, filled with a divine and auspicious aura.
It had a metal feel, as well as jade and stone luster. When it released multicolored light, it was as resplendent as a sun.
In this world, among millions and millions of creatures, not many could endure Origin Ancient Artifact’s radiance, most perishing upon contact.
In reality, Burial Earth normally used corpses to endure Origin Ancient Artifact’s brilliance.
After all these years, the creatures who were still alive, for example, Golden Undead Knights, how many of them succeeded? Shenming and Sanzang were exceptions, fortunate enough to not perish, which was why they were being fostered by burial kings!
Shi Hao resisted this concentrated rain of light, not dying.
“In the past, I used the rotten wooden chest as protection to survive, but I don’t have to use it anymore. It seems like I’ve developed resistance.”
Shi Hao produced artifacts one after another, for example, the Everlasting Sword Core, True Primordial Record, rotten wooden chest, as well as even that flame within him which revived.
In the end, he moved, walking forward step by step, approaching this chest.
Dang!
After a light shaking, Shi Hao placed his palm that could shatter the heavens on this chest, truly making contact with his flesh.
Hong!
This ancient temple shook, rocking intensely. The temple was originally holy, but now that Origin Ancient Artifact released radiance, it seemed to be burning, becoming more and more dazzling.
Origin Ancient Artifact seemed to have revived, developing life. It shook, released rumbling noises and terrifying radiance. The rain of light seemed to descend like true liquid!
Shi Hao’s expression was grave. He was withstanding that type of indescribable unmatched aura!
The pressure was like a mountain, like a vast sea, rising and falling here. It was as if several cosmos and endless seas of stars were crashing down on Shi Hao.
Dang!
He suddenly exerted strength, shaking up this chest.
It wasn’t just his body, the Everlasting Sword Core, True Primordial Record and other things were all moved. He even used the rotten wooden chest to smash at this chest.
Honglong!
Finally, an even more intense transformation happened. Nine-colored brilliance rushed into the heavens, tearing apart the temple, simply about to sever the great river of time.
One could see that the river of time was becoming unstable, shaking greatly here.
Shi Hao didn’t know which strange object was the key to opening the Origin Ancient Artifact. All of these things, including himself, were treated as the seed.
Dong!
Several objects landed on Origin Ancient Artifact.
Finally, this place underwent a sky shocking transformation. Origin Ancient Artifact was cracking apart, that Nine-Colored Immortal Gold like chest was going to be opened.
Honglong!
Heavens collapsed and the earth split apart, ghosts weeping and deities howling.
This chest was divine, but it released a terrifying noise. While it was being opened, it was accompanied by endless irregular scenes, many natural deities falling. There were countless Darkness Prisons and a resplendent immortal ascension light. All types of scenes interweaved as if a segment of ancient history was appearing.
However, all of this happened too fast.
Bo!
A light noise sounded. This chest actually blossomed like a flower, the cracked chest opening piece by piece, revealing the true scene inside.
