Chapter 481 - Heaven and Earth in Chaos
Shi Hao’s entire body was tense. He found it difficult to relax. He thought that he had control over the advancement of his own path, that he wouldn’t have to compromise with the foreign great sects and could guide his own fate. However, now, he realized that when faced against the giants of the higher realms, it didn’t matter how astonishing his talents were or if he was the human emperor. A single finger from these giants could crush him into ashes.
“I want to transcend!” Shi Hao said to himself. His tone of speaking was extremely steady, and his voice was powerful as well.
The old man with disheveled hair from before was one thing, but the old woman clearly treated this place like a medicinal field. The only reason she didn’t take action was because she didn’t find suitable ‘medicinal ingredients’.
In just that split second, Shi Hao’s entire body went cold. His fate was in the hands of another. The glorious Stone Country’s restricted land, a country’s imperial palace was looked down upon just like that, treated no different from a medicinal field.
He was completely disregarded, for he had not reached the supreme expert realm yet. As a result, he was safe and sound because the other party didn’t care about him.
This reasoning was a bit ridiculous. He was only able to narrowly escape because he wasn’t powerful enough, and as such was ignored. This was not only a type of mockery, but also a type of sorrowful joke.
“Damn it!” Finally, Shi Hao spat out. He wouldn’t become dejected even until the end, because he was still young. There was still time for him to improve himself.
“Sooner or later, I am going to break into the higher realms!” Shi Hao voiced his thoughts.
Between heaven and earth, lightning radiance would streak across the sky from time to time, oppressing this world. This was the light of the great calamity, the effects of incredibly powerful individuals fighting a great battle. The walls of the realm were broken, and the wasteland region was looked down upon.
“It’s a pity that I can only stay here now. Can’t even watch the play anymore.” Shi Hao said quietly in a self-mocking manner.
The little pagoda left, so there was no one to activate the ancestral altar anymore. The mirror was extremely blurry, and it was simply impossible to locate the distant situation. It was unknown what stage the battle had reached.
At the end of the wasteland region, the old woman carried her medicinal basket. She was dressed in simple and unadorned female clothing, as if she was an old peasant woman. However, her methods and might were both utterly terrifying.
With a light touch, the wall between regions broke apart, and she smoothly proceeded into another region.
That day was like the reopening of heaven and earth for the wasteland region. The giants in the higher realms were fighting a great battle, soaking the mountains and rivers with their blood. Their slaughtering intent shook the past and present. Never before had there been such an intense and bitter battle. For the other seven regions, this was a delayed great calamity.
It wasn’t just the old woman that took action. There were others that came into the realm of mortals to pluck ‘great medicines.’ They were going to catch everything in one fell sweep and bring everything away. For supreme experts and deities, this was an unimaginable disaster.
Shi Hao didn’t personally witness this, but he could very well imagine what was going on, because he had personally seen the changes that took place in the wasteland region.
“Ah… No!” A Qiu dragon cried out. However, it could still not escape its fate.
It roared angrily towards the heavens, cold green light covering its body as it extended to a great length before soaring into the sky to flee this region. However, it was all completely futile.
