Perfect World

Chapter 627: Chapter 627: Searching for the Great Divine Demons Grandfather Chapter 627: Chapter 627: Searching for the Great Divine Demons Grandfather In the mountains, magma glowed a blazing red, inundating stretches of forest, and mighty beings were engaged in fierce battle.

For several days in a row, this area was plagued by unceasing conflicts.

Whenever ancient combatants met, none would back down, and battles were inevitably intense!

“Hmm?” Shi Hao frowned as he observed even more powerful creatures.

The news of the Three-life Copper Coffin and the Supreme Hall evidently had a profound impact, drawing numerous formidable figures to the scene.

Blue flames flared as a gigantic earthworm appeared, over fifty meters long—a powerhouse that had ignited divine flames.

As soon as it emerged, it directly pounced towards the young adults of the Divine Palace.

Eliminating geniuses was a common occurrence in the higher realms, as the different major powers would not allow their enemies’ young talents to grow comfortably if they were hostile towards each other.

However, this was a Loose Cultivator, not a divine-level powerhouse from any particular school; it had merely set its sights on the Void Halberd and thus launched a surprise attack in an attempt to seize it.

“Shh!”
An heir of the Immortal Hall pierced through the void, vanishing to avoid the powerhouse’s strike.

The earthworm, as large as a giant serpent, coiled across the sky leaving behind swathes of blue rune-lights, then quickly darted towards the ground.

After its attack failed, it did not wish to linger.

“Hmm, daring to act so recklessly, do you think I do not exist?” An elder appeared, his body wreathed in black flames, reaching out with a giant hand towards the ground.

“Elder!” Yue Chan called out softly, her main body appearing here.

This was a powerhouse from the Heaven Mending Sect who had ignited divine flames, also drawn to this region.

The earthworm escaped, its body glowing as half of it buried into the mountain soil, its movements incredibly swift.

“Imprison!” the elder shouted, bringing out a divine pearl that emitted earthy yellow light and enveloped the forest below, causing the earthworm’s body to stiffen and struggle to escape.

This was the difference between a Loose Cultivator and a cultivator from a sacred place; the former lacked powerful Treasured Artifacts, while the latter had access to weapons that could completely suppress peers of the same rank.

The pearl was an “Earth-Travelling Bead,” specifically designed to counter beings that relied on the power of the earth, rendering the earthworm immobile in an instant.

“Buzz!”
The void split open, and the heir of the Immortal Hall reappeared with long hair flowing, his body tall and robust, radiating brilliant light as he wielded the Void Halberd and forcefully chopped downward.

“Splash!”
Blood sprayed, and the halberd split the earthworm apart, and with a fierce twist, the powerful creature was shredded into pieces, turning into a mist of blood – a being that had ignited divine flames was slain alive!

Blood dripped down, and the Void Halberd appeared horrifically captivating amid the mountainous scene, causing spectators to shiver as a creature with ignited divine flames was killed like this.

Not long after, some other powerful creatures appeared in the area, all significant figures from various sects.

“It’s getting more crowded, time for me to leave,” Shi Hao whispered.

There was no need to muddle through anymore.

As he spoke, he glanced at Silver, ready to take it with him.

The area grew increasingly chaotic after the emergence of the news about the Three-life Copper Coffin and the Supreme Hall, causing key figures from various schools to become restless.

Before departing, Shi Hao made a trip to Python Village about a hundred miles away, witnessing several brutal men mentioned by Grandpa Three, whom he discreetly killed, sparing Zhu Village from future troubles.

“I want to leap like a fish, unbound, able to roam freely in heaven and earth, not having to avoid anyone!” Shi Hao mused to himself.

He wanted to grow stronger without having to be cautious like he currently was.

He intended to pursue strength and hone himself, temporarily escaping the vortex.

With Silver at his side, he knew great fortuity was likely to come upon this Silver Phoenix.

Two days later, Shi Hao, along with Silver, vanished.

As he was about to leave the Huai City region, he suddenly sensed something off ahead—mists rising ominously.

He was cautious, attempting to detour, but found the entire area enveloped similarly—it was a sealing formation!

Silver was extremely nervous, its large, inky eyes darting around, and unusually silent, obediently staying by his side.

“What a grand scheme, completely sealing off this whole region.” Shi Hao exclaimed.

Clearly, a powerhouse from the big schools had arrived to lock down the area, intending to find the silver-haired lady.

He awakened the Divine Striking Stone, and together they explored to find a way out.

Two days later, ripples appeared in the Misty Region, and they left without a sound.

Shi Hao looked back; the area was a “quagmire,” bound to incite many cultivators to battle.

“Silver, do you know where the Three-life Copper Coffin is, or maybe you can tell me where the Supreme Hall is, how about that?” Shi Hao suddenly spoke after covering some distance.

Silver’s feathers bristled, standing on end, as it stared at him with wide eyes.

“Don’t be nervous, I’m just asking casually,” Shi Hao said with a smile.

Not long after, he reached Prefecture City, finding that the battles among geniuses of this tier had not yet begun, and there was still some time.

“Perhaps I should switch to another Prefecture City, just to be safer,” Shi Hao mumbled to himself.

After traversing hundreds of thousands of miles, he finally stopped after distancing himself from the region behind him, choosing a giant city to settle down briefly, mainly to gather information.

Because Zhu Village was too remote, even elders like Grandpa Three who had traveled far in the past had limited knowledge of the outside world.

“This is Lei State, and it’s right next to Five Elements State!”
Upon receiving this news, Shi Hao’s heart felt unsettled.

After arriving in the upper realms, apart from enhancing his cultivation, he had another concern—to find his grandfather.

Five Elements State was where the Immortal Mountain was located!

Every time he thought of his grandfather, Shi Hao’s heart warmed, yet also felt a bit sour; the elderly man had sacrificed a lot for him, yet they had long been unable to meet.

When he was very young, his grandfather had gone to search for ferocious beast True Blood.

Unfortunately, he became severely injured by the pursuit of a Pi Xiu, losing an arm and being trapped in a coma for over a decade.

Upon returning, the first thing Grandpa Fifteen did was look for him, bringing him True Flood Dragon Pills.

However, upon returning to Stone Capital and learning the truth, he was heart-wrenchingly distressed and burst into a great battle in his anger.

Later, Grandpa Fifteen, accompanied by Sister Mang, went to Immortal Mountain and was grievously wounded, coughing up blood, and from that place, he accidentally entered the higher realms.

“Grandfather, take care!” Shi Hao whispered, his heart slightly aching.

He wasn’t too concerned about his parents because, with Qin Hao’s connection, Immortal Mountain wouldn’t dare act rashly.

However, it was purely accidental that Grandpa Fifteen entered the higher realms through Immortal Mountain’s transport formation.

Although the Qin Clan always said that Immortal Mountain in the higher realms hadn’t troubled Grandpa Fifteen and had allowed him to leave long ago, Shi Hao was still worried.

Though the areas were neighboring states, the distance between these states was just too vast; any single state was many times broader than the entire Lower Realm combined, one can imagine such a distance.

Even for Cultivators, if they relied only on flying, they would need many years to navigate this boundless territory.

To travel across states, one had to rely on the transport formations found within some massive cities, or else the astronomically large distances would daze anyone.

Shi Hao had expended a rare treasure brought from the Lower Realm.

It was a significant expense, and after waiting several days, he finally boarded an ancient transport formation, crossing the void with a large group of Cultivators to enter the Five Elements State.

Traveling across states was tough; simply the cost of this transportation was not something ordinary people could afford.

Later, he traversed several times within this state using its transport formations, and finally he approached Immortal Mountain.

“One cultivates while searching for Grandfather!” That was his decision.

During this process, Silver become submerged into a deep slumber, glowing internally and with various characters flickering like it was healing.

Shi Hao placed it into the Heaven and Earth Pouch.

“We are still about 100,000 li from Immortal Mountain,” Shi Hao whispered to himself.

Barely arriving in the Five Elements State and getting closer to Immortal Mountain, he heard numerous rumors as several Cultivators in giant cities discussed amongst themselves.

“The Qin Clan really is extraordinary, producing such an exceptional youth possessing two Immortal Bones, invincible in battles within the same realm, dominating all adversaries!”
Over the past year, Qin Hao had shocked the Five Elements State, looking down on peers and surveying the world, unmatched in battle at his level.

“It’s said he has an Immortal Bone from the Lower Realm, previously belonging to his elder brother, though it’s unconfirmed.”
“Shh, keep your voice down.

Don’t go spreading rumors; some have already been scolded and warned by Immortal Mountain, and others have even lost their lives because of it!”
Shi Hao fell silent; it seemed Immortal Mountain was fervently trying to erase his tracks, unwilling to let the radiant glory of the magnificent talent Qin Hao include him, reluctant to see his name mentioned.

“One day, with the most splendid victories, tell them you have returned, that even without Supreme Bone, you still stand supreme among your peers!” Divine Striking Stone said indignantly, expressing discontent.

People continued discussing, but stopped mentioning one of Qin Hao’s potential origins of the Supreme True Bone.

“This time, the genius showdown of the Three Thousand States is a grand event; let’s wait and see how far Qin Hao of Immortal Mountain will go, and how spectacular he will be!”
“Ah, there are people from sacred places appearing now.

Qin Hao truly defies heaven, gaining favor from several sacred places seeking alliance through marriage with the Qin Clan—those are indeed daughters of heaven!”
Shi Hao remained calm, listening to their discussions, further familiarizing himself with Immortal Mountain.

Immortal Mountain was a colossal entity, filled with strong individuals, dominating this state.

Shi Hao yearned to gather more detailed news, yet he had to proceed cautiously.

Otherwise, once discovered that someone was spying on Immortal Mountain, it would lead to a deadly disaster!

It took him a full half month, using various means, to finally learn some valuable information, which shocked him greatly.

Someone discussing Immortal Mountain mentioned Shi Ziling, who had caused a commotion there after arriving in the higher realms, furiously disturbing Immortal Mountain.

Hearing such news, Shi Hao’s heart tightened instantly, filled with extreme anxiety.

“How dare Shi Ziling cause a disturbance at Immortal Mountain?” He couldn’t help but ask.

“It’s rumored that he came from the Lower Realm, Qin Hao’s father.

If it weren’t him, anyone else stirring trouble would have been killed immediately,” someone said, continuing the story.

Shi Hao listened, not interrupting.

After Shi Ziling’s disturbance at Immortal Mountain, many accompanied him to Demon Island, seemingly in search of someone, only to return despondently.

Hearing this, Shi Hao’s heart skipped a beat, and he clenched his fist tightly.

He had learned that Demon Island was divided into two parts, half being deadly grounds and the other half a prison holding many powerful figures and ferocious demons.

Immediately, Shi Hao made an association, then passion surged, and anger crowned his brow.

Clenching his fists tightly, he trembled, “Is Grandpa there?”
Furthermore, he couldn’t think of any other reason why Shi Ziling would go mad and head there.

“Grandpa, Sister Mang!” Shi Hao’s heart trembled, tears nearly falling, he turned and left the giant city, running alone in the mountains, bellowing loudly.

“Grandpa, Sister Mang, you must be okay!” Shi Hao shouted, his blood boiling, tears rolling uncontrollably, and he gritted his teeth, “Immortal Mountain, Qin Clan, I will not stop until I’m done with you!”
Grandpa Fifteen held a special place in his heart; although they parted ways long ago, he was just as significant to Shi Hao as Patriarch Shi Yunfeng from the Stone Village and irreplaceable!

Because he knew, his grandfather genuinely cared for him, everything he did was for his sake.

“Grandpa, where are you?” Shi Hao’s eyes brimming with hot tears, he was immensely worried and filled with immense hatred for Immortal Mountain.

“For now, I can’t use the name Shi Hao.

From now on, I shall be known as Wasteland; even here in the higher realms, I will dominate far and wide.

I must rise swiftly!” Shi Hao vowed.

He came from the wasteland, once using the alias Haotian.

Now that he had arrived in the higher realms, he decided to call himself Wasteland, sweeping through all enemies.

Although emotionally distressed, Shi Hao felt his grandfather must still be alive.

Although not found, Shi Ziling only returned disappointed, not despondent, which indicated some possibilities.

“Grandpa, Sister Mang, take care; I’ll find you soon!” Shi Hao murmured emotionally.

It has been rather quiet lately, entering the higher realms should be thrilling.

I am adjusting, trying to correct the pace, please wait.
