Chapter 275

"Some matters were settled long ago; moreover, many people here now know that certain clans once committed unforgivable grave sins," someone sneered mockingly.

"What is there to say about the Sin-Blood lineage? Many people already know," Wang Changhe added, fanning the flames.

The Wang clan, because they had previously coveted Shi Hao's Indestructible Sutra, ultimately faced Meng Tianzheng's appearance, followed by various great experts who sought to annihilate the Wang clan; as a result, with war about to erupt and considering they still held some utility, they were exiled to the frontier!

Since this matter originated because of Shi Hao, they naturally showed him no good face, mocking him whenever they could.

Seeing Qin Hao about to argue back, Shi Hao stopped him.

"What is there to say to these people? As criminals exiled to the frontier, do they still have the audacity to talk about others?" Shi Hao cast a cold glance, naturally retorting in kind.

Shi Yi also spoke up: "Indeed, former prisoners exiled here are truly criminals; serving their sentence here, do they still have the face to criticize others?"

The three of them traded barbs back and forth, turning Wang Changhe's face green and purple!

Both sides exchanged various mockeries over the matter of Sin-Blood.

That Ningchuan also looked down on Shi Hao and the others with contempt, despising them as descendants of Sin-Blood...

However, just at this moment, Ye Qingxian appeared.

She came to receive Shi Hao and the others.

Ye Qingxian was already familiar with Shi Hao and the others, so she naturally feared nothing.

Moreover, Ye Qingxian possessed great strength; within this Emperor Pass, many people knew her.

Those people, upon seeing Ye Qingxian, continued to verbally mock Shi Hao and the others.

Then, Ye Qingxian became enraged...

That terrifying aura surged outward, instantly suppressing those people; her power was so horrifying it was almost unimaginable.

This Ye Qingxian was also very mysterious, seemingly aware of many secrets.

As for Ye Qingxian's specific origins, that was not very clear.

Soon, Ye Qingxian led Shi Hao and the others to the location of the Shi clan within the Emperor City.

Burdened by the name of Sin-Blood, the Shi clan suffered humiliation and bullying; nowadays, they numbered fewer than a thousand, all of them elderly, children, women, and infants!

He flew into a rage, vowing that one day he would completely wash away this sin of the Shi clan.

He stayed behind to teach the clan's youth while also learning about the situation in the Borderlands.

Outside the Emperor City, a Heavenly Abyss connected to the firmament, blocking the Otherworldly Immortals from crossing over.

In this era without True Immortals, it played an enormous role, halting the iron hooves of the Otherworld.

Afterwards, Shi Hao was invited again to attend some discussion conference for geniuses.

In the end, it only ceased after one member of the Jin clan was slain.

Immediately after, everyone saw Shi Hao sucked into the Immortal Ancient Battlefield, where he wielded a long spear, fighting bloodily in all directions.

He broke through ten regions in succession, ascending to the Nine Heavens!

However, just at this moment, more enemies appeared.

These were all descendants of what were called Emperor Clans.

No matter how strong Shi Hao's power was, ultimately two fists could not fight four hands.

He rampaged and slaughtered, his long robe stained with blood.

With no other choice, in the end, he could only detonate the sole Divine Cave within his body!

Yin and Yang embraced each other to form a divine disk, life and death interdependent to evolve a Primordial Dao Chart, forming a sea of qi like a Taiji.

Shi Hao finally succeeded in Tribulation Crossing, and a pool of lightning descended from the firmament.

After drinking the Lei Jie liquid, the immortal scriptures within Shi Hao's body operated automatically, his whole body radiating a golden luster!

Shi Hao grew increasingly formidable, stirring jealousy in the hearts of the Wang family members, who wished they could kill Shi Hao right then and there...

Then, they released three lightning spirits, intending to eliminate Shi Hao.

In response, Shi Hao naturally circulated the Indestructible Immortal Sutra; runes flickered, and in an instant, he annihilated those Wang family members.

Nowadays, Shi Hao's strength had finally reached a higher level; coupled with various good items given by the Wang family as apology, his power was no weaker than existences of a higher realm.

After closing his retreat, he went straight to fight on the front lines, surrounded by Indestructible Immortal Light, his fists brilliant as divine rainbows!

Even the ten great experts of the Otherworld rushed over, wishing to battle Shi Hao.

To this, Shi Hao naturally felt no fear, easily killing several young experts.

Shi Hao went on a killing spree, slaying hundreds of powerful experts, before fleeing far away!

At this moment, the scene shifted again...

Because certain individuals in the Emperor Pass colluded with the enemy, revealing Shi Hao's location, he was pursued and killed by Otherworldly experts.

Shi Hao fought desperately to counter-kill; relying on the Lei Jie liquid, he barely survived.

Yet he was still heavily injured.

Thus, taking advantage of the Golden Ox being away fighting at the front, he secretly slipped into their old nest and found the Immortal Juice and Golden Liquid!

Immortal Dao aura gushed forth in streams; Shi Hao recovered quickly, the three crowns of Great Dao golden flowers on his head brimming with vitality, with the middle one even bearing life.

The Flower of the Great Dao bore life!

This was already the second one!

The first life-form and the second were completely different.

The first seemed separated from Shi Hao by eternal ages, born before the opening of heaven and earth.

This second one was closely linked to Shi Hao, governing slaughter and conquest.

After closing his retreat, Shi Hao chased after a divine medicine again and accidentally entered an Ancient Burial Zone!

Suddenly, black mist surged violently, and a certain Burial Scholar suddenly opened his eyes.

This Burial Scholar was mysterious and unfathomable, possessing earth-shaking, sky-trembling power!

However, somewhat unexpectedly, upon seeing the Daluo Sword Embryo, he trembled all over, kneeling down and kowtowing!

Shi Hao's eyes lit up; without another word, he immediately tricked this Burial Warrior into becoming his enforcer.

After leaving the Burial Zone, Shi Hao searched everywhere, slaying numerous foreign experts who had intruded into this realm.

Upon learning that the Ancient Burial Zone contained an Immortal Medicine, Shi Hao's eyes gleamed with intent to enter the sacred land of the Burial Region together.

However, just as Shi Hao stepped onto a certain patch of burial earth, a stone stele suddenly emerged, swirling with the aura of the Dao...

And then, he heard...

"Huang, may your soul return, appear once more in this world, wuwu..."

Someone was weeping bitterly, utterly heartbroken.

Shi Hao froze, then flew into a rage; what did this mean? Soul return? Appear once more in this world?

Damn it, he wasn't dead yet!

Wasn't this cursing him?

Just at that moment, at the far end of the burial zone, the gray, hazy sky suddenly split open; the River of Time flowed through, while chaotic mists churned.

The sacred land had revived, causing changes in the heaven and earth here; it might have torn through the River of Time, allowing one to see people and events that should not have appeared!

Shi Hao felt suspicious.

At this moment, he heard again as that voice sounded once more...

"Huang, my brother, where are you? An era has passed; Heavenly Emperor, have you truly died?"

"Wuwu... how could you possibly be dead? What befell you?"

"On the path to immortality, I saw your name; within samsara, I saw your inscribed characters! One fist pierced through all obstacles!"

"Yet, why have you vanished once more? An entire era! Have you truly perished, leaving no trace whatsoever?"

"My body has undergone nine burials across lifetimes, watching the years change, generation after generation of geniuses rising and falling, replaced, yet why have you disappeared?!!"

"Huang, my brother, where are you?"

That voice wept in sorrow, utterly heartbroken!

Shi Hao felt his scalp go numb.

At this moment, he felt only a chill shooting straight from the soles of his feet to the crown of his head.

With a grave expression, Shi Hao approached that blurry figure, intending to see clearly and understand fully.

He could vaguely discern a segment of the River of Time severing past and present, with a Daoist Priest weeping within it.

Shi Hao furrowed his brows.

Although he could not see too clearly, he felt that this must be a very familiar old acquaintance...

"Huang, my brother, may your soul return; with your talents, capable of devouring the ancient and the modern, how could you be gone..."

"Who could block you? Who could harm you? On the path to immortality, I saw your left-behind characters; everywhere to this day, they still chant your name. One sword slash severed ten thousand ages—where exactly are you?"

"Wuwu..."
