Chapter 519 - 519: The Fortunes Never Obtained by the Heavenly Emperor
Chapter 519: Chapter 519: The Fortunes Never Obtained by the Heavenly Emperor
“It shouldn’t be,” he sighed lightly and made such a judgment, because he had heard that the Detachment Chapter might be in the Supreme Hall, not the Chaos Ancient Hall.
“Leave the scriptures behind!”
The Purple-gold Ant bellowed, and after transforming into human form with flowing purple hair, it wielded incredible strength. The small hammer it spit out radiated a hazy purple mist and crashed down with astonishing attack power.
At the same time, Bi Gu and Xuan Ming also made their moves, creating chaos. They hoped to snatch the bone texts in the turmoil and then flee.
Shi Hao turned around, but instead of attacking the crowd, he faced a burst of blue light, as the dragon that was burning its essence qi had sneakily launched an attack on him.
The Blue Dragon’s vitality was so powerful that it had already recovered in an instant to its peak condition, although its jaw was shattered and destroyed, something not even a Venerable One could quickly recover from.
“Roar…”
It roared, with a ball of firelight emerging from its throat, blue and ethereal, not scorching but terrifyingly cold.
“Hellish Blue Fire!” Bi Gu and Xuan Ming screamed, quickly retreating.
This flame was quite special, cold but with a ghastly chill as if it came from hell, rumored to be able to ignite a person’s soul, which was extremely terrifying and hardly inferior to the Sun Essence Fire.
“You don’t treasure the life you’ve been left with,” said Shi Hao. Although he couldn’t consecutively invoke the power of karma, after merging his body with the Undying Golden Body, his combat strength remained formidable.
Here, he evolved the true technique of the giant Peng bird, unleashing a punch radiant with golden light and another glimmering with black light—one side dominated by a golden sun spanning the sky, the other by a vast black ocean.
With both fists in motion, the Power of Taiyin and Sun rotated against each other, unleashing peerless might. When the two fists united and struck forward.
With a bang, the ghostly fire was shattered!
The Blue Dragon stumbled back, coughing up blood. However, Shi Hao wasn’t willing to let it go—a golden Golden Winged Peng erupted from his right palm, its head raised in a long cry, diving down with endless golden light.
Meanwhile, from his left palm, a black Kun fish flew out, supremely gentle and yin, stirring waves that sealed the interspace.
In the brief instant, they clashed dozens of times, distorting the interspace, with even the mighty body of the Blue Dragon trembling and dimming in luster.
The Blue Dragon flicked its tail, attempting to break through, only to encounter an expanse of black mist from the black fish that caused violent tremors—the Power of Taiyin entered its body, making it unable to endure physically.
“Boom!”
Then, a great sun descended, and the golden Golden Winged Peng dove, instantly tearing through the body of the Blue Dragon, causing its death.
“It isn’t human, and it has ‘dragon’ in its name. What luck,” said Shi Hao, a youthful boy, now revealing a sunlit and brilliant smile.
However, to everyone else, it was hair-raising to see such a powerful Blue Dragon killed alive by him?!
“Swoosh!”
The Heaven and Earth Pouch burst forth with auspicious light, and Shi Hao collected the Blue Dragon’s vast corpse inside. In there, Fairy Yue Chan was startled, seeing such a noble-blooded auspicious animal become Shi Hao’s spoils of war, she sensed he had grown even stronger.
“How come I seem to have seen a woman?” Bi Gu was uncertain and surprised.
“It couldn’t be the Fairy Yue Chan you’re thinking of, could it?” Xuan Ming also caught a glimpse, and having seen her portrait after descending to the Lower Realm, they could recognize her even after many years.
“Shi Hao, is there someone imprisoned in your Heaven and Earth Pouch?” asked Bi Gu.
Shi Hao shook his head but didn’t say anything, not wishing to create unnecessary complications at this time.
Bi Gu was suspicious; he had descended with the intent to find Fairy Yue Chan. Now, with doubts in his mind, he was truly uncomfortable—how could his divine woman appear in someone else’s Heaven and Earth Pouch? It drove him mad.
The battle continued with other Venerable Ones arriving. Both pieces of bone texts were seized, instantaneously leading to two battlefields of unparalleled chaos.
Even noble ladies like Shui Yue and Hong Huang were unsettled now, telepathically conveying their willingness to cooperate with Shi Hao to break out together.
“No one can leave!” A frenzied tantrum came from a Golden Crow Taoist, disheveled as he continuously slapped around the ancient hall, activating various potential prohibitions.
“Boom!”
Indeed, the Sun Essence Fire became even more rampant, as golden flames burned everywhere. Signs that only the Golden Crow Clan could decipher were also imprinted into the void.
“O Golden Crow comrade, if you keep up this mess, don’t blame me for being impolite!” roared the Ironblood Ancient Tree, a plant-based Venerable One and one of the strongest here, who naturally feared fire and would have fled if not protected by the ancestral Magic Wand.
“This treasure belongs to my clan; none of you shall touch it!” exclaimed a Venerable One from the Golden Crow Clan.
“Nonsense. Eons ago, this Chaos Ancient Hall had no master. It was merely that your ancestors temporarily occupied it for a period,” countered another Venerable One, and they ceased to cooperate with each other.
As the great battle intensified, everyone was on high alert, locked in relentless bloody combat.
Shi Hao, possessing one of the bone texts, was naturally at the center of the battlefield. He, ultimately, couldn’t escape immediately and was pinned down inside the hall.
“Wait, something’s wrong!” Suddenly, Shi Hao noticed the bone text on his body vibrating, attempting to leave his body. He grasped it firmly, his fingers exerting force, his whole body glowing, and he restrained the rough piece of bone.
From a distance, a cry of shock came as evidently, the holder of the other scriptures encountered a similar issue and failed to suppress it right away.
A ray of light zipped through the ancient hall, and that piece of bone text flew up, entering the magnificent dao platform above.
There, a golden flower bloomed, steaming clouds and mist, shining with dazzling brilliance, and within it was an egg harboring a peerless beauty with golden strands of hair.
The bone text flew up and then descended into the golden flower!
“No!” everyone yelled, many tried to capture it back, only to find that their Divine Power vanished like casting mud into the sea, to no avail.
“Slash!”
Unable to hold back, since the golden flower contained Divine Liquid and Immortal Scripture yet unable to obtain them, how could anyone bear it? Some attacked fiercely and swiftly dodged away.
“To everyone’s astonishment, a few Magic Artifacts entered the golden rose and silently melted away, turning into a stream of Origin Qi that was absorbed!”
“What kind of power is this?” Other people were shocked and couldn’t help but step back, feeling their hair stand on end.
The golden flower was too terrifying; could it really be that a will had been born from the Sun Ancient Tree, and its essence wanted to break free?
“Ha ha…” The venerable one from the Golden Crow Clan laughed out loud, as if he had gone mad.
Another Taoist from the Golden Crow Clan was also excited, muttering to himself, “Heaven has not forsaken our Golden Crows, this era is destined for our great rise; it must be the return of the Crow Emperor, with the Primordial sacred bloodline coming into being!”
Everyone’s expression changed as they looked at the golden egg, feeling that it was not an impossibility.
You know, countless months ago, the Golden Crow Clan produced a Heavenly Emperor. Legend has it that he was born from the Sun Ancient Tree!
Somebody disbelievingly brought out a forbidden painting scroll, which burned as it was cast, intending to blow the golden flower apart. This power surely surpassed that of the Venerable Ones.
However, the scroll was still decomposed, turned into Origin Qi, and absorbed by the golden flower to incubate the Divine Egg.
At the same time, from within the heart of the flower, an Order Divine Chain flew out, and with a ‘pu’ sound, it pierced through the Venerable One who had made the move and insantly killed him on the spot, like a silent warning.
Everyone was silent as cicadas in winter!
At this moment, Shi Hao encountered great trouble. The bone texts in his hands vibrated, almost flying away. Even though he opened his ten great caves and sealed this void, it was still very difficult to keep it.
Everyone looked over, with many people showing killing intent. Now, only this set of ancient scriptures remained.
“Do you want this scripture to also fly away? Help me now!” Shi Hao said, and he turned to leave.
The others looked at each other, scolded by a youngster yet having battled fiercely earlier, unwilling to comply; however, after quick consideration, they really feared the scripture might also fly away.
Maybe it was a wiser choice to leave this place first, and then fight over it!
“Brother Shi, this way, we’ll cover you as you leave!” Shui Yue spoke up, with Lan Yu, Bi Gu, and others rushing over regardless of the past. They hadn’t had a direct conflict and still had a good acquaintance. Now, cooperating seemed to be a wise choice.
“Let’s go, leave this place first!” The other Venerable Ones also whispered. Now they were really afraid; that golden flower was too mysterious and terrifying.
“No one is leaving!” a strong member from the Golden Crow Clan shouted, activating the Sun Essence Fire, opening an array with the intent to trap everyone.
“Seeking death!” The Ironblood Ancient Tree was enraged, its whole body crimson, and a main root transformed into a terrifying blood spear, exploding with a veil of bloody symbols, piercing through.
“Pu!”
Blood splattered; the Venerable One from the Golden Crow Clan cried out. In direct confrontation, he was no match. Though he dodged the critical points, half his body was still impaled and consequently exploded, followed by the other half.
Everyone gasped. The Ironblood Ancient Tree was truly powerful!
“Hold it!” Shi Hao shouted. At this time, he felt the bone texts in his hand were even more unstable, shaking violently.
He had not only opened his ten great caves, but also used the power of Kun Peng, clutching with both hands, trying to keep these scriptures. However, there was a mysterious power on the dao platform trying to take the book.
“Attack!”
Lan Yu, Hong Huang, Xuan Ming, Bi Gu, and others all struck, counteracting that mysterious power, helping Shi Hao because aiding him at this moment was to aid themselves.
“Hold on, resist this power!” All the other Venerable Ones attacked as well. If this bone flew away, they would all lose their chance at the scripture.
Everyone’s combined efforts seemed to temporarily stabilize the situation.
Shi Hao dashed outward at high speed, his eyes blazing with divine light, struggling to break through a layer of light screen above, trying to see what was actually recorded. Because he had a premonition that he wouldn’t be able to take this bone with him.
“You won’t be able to take it away, this was left by the Heavenly Emperor, it is a great fortune for our clan. You don’t have the Golden Crow bloodline; you won’t get the chance!” A Golden Crow Taoist exclaimed.
“Catch that Golden Crow and make him take the bone texts away from here.” The Ironblood Ancient Tree and Purple-gold Ant exchanged glances and communicated with the other Venerables, making this decision.
At the same time, a piece of text appeared on the bone, entering Shi Hao’s sight, and he finally saw it.
“Less than a hundred words?!” He frowned immediately, this was too little. Immediately after, he was shocked and hurriedly read it carefully.
Because the opening sentence was: I didn’t get that great fortune.
Signed by the Heavenly Emperor!
Behind it, there were several dozen peculiar symbols, highly mysterious, as if they recorded some kind of heaven-defying fortune, flowing with faint primal chaos mist.
What did it mean? Shi Hao studied carefully, but couldn’t understand the meanings of these symbols at all.
He pondered earnestly, feeling that these dozens of character imprints pointed to the great fortune spoken of by the Heavenly Emperor, making his heart pound nonstop.
All in all, there were less than a hundred symbols on this bone text, and they weren’t particularly abstruse or complicated, so Shi Hao committed them to memory in an instant.
Meanwhile, the Ironblood Ancient Tree, Purple-gold Ant, and the others worked together, suppressed the Golden Crow Clan’s Taoist, and rushed him towards Shi Hao, saying, “Hand over the bone texts, let him hold it.”
“Boom!”
Suddenly, at that moment, heaven and earth shook, the ancient hall roared, a supremely strong aura spread.
Shi Hao was startled, feeling the bone texts in his hand shaking even more violently now, a great sense of crisis descending upon him, he let go just in time.
With a ‘snap,’ the Nine-Headed Snake wrapped its tail around the bone texts, but deep within the hall, there was a glow from a prayer mat on the dao platform, and a faint shadow materialized, exuding a supreme aura!
“Pu!”
Silently, the Nine-Headed Snake’s tail broke, it screamed in pain, and the bone texts rushed toward the depths of the hall, landing on that prayer mat.
Shi Hao rushed out at high speed, leaping out from the Chaos Ancient Hall, while others also sensed danger and all fled.
At this moment, the entire Sun Ancient Tree radiated immeasurable divine light, lifted up World Mountain, as well as the Chaos Ancient Hall, soared up from the ground, shattered the sky, and actually rose into the air.
“How can I… feel the aura of the higher realms!” Hong Huang exclaimed. (To be continued. If you like this work, welcome to come to Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendation tickets, monthly tickets; your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please read at m.qidian.com.)
