Chapter 496

Shi Hao was shocked.

This was not the first time he had seen this cauldron.

But before, he had only seen the illusory shadow of this cauldron; now, he was seeing the actual object.

Shi Hao carefully examined the cauldron, seeing that it was stained with blood, swirling with Profound Yellow Mother Qi, and emitting a terrifyingly dreadful aura.

The cauldron hung motionless in mid-air.

Shi Hao's heart pounded wildly, filled with some tension.

What exactly did this cauldron intend to do? What message was it transmitting to him?

Who had refined this cauldron?

Regarding this, Shi Hao did not know; he only knew that with just a slight tremor from the cauldron, a terrifying aura shook forth, as if destroying the world...

Extremely powerful!

At this moment, Shi Hao took a deep breath and asked in a heavy voice, "You came to find me? For what purpose?"

This cauldron emitted a brilliant light, resonating with Immortal Gold, radiating the Mother Qi of Heaven and Earth, becoming increasingly mysterious and unfathomable.

It seemed as though a figure rose from within the cauldron, but very quickly, that figure vanished again.

Immediately after, a sound seemed to ring out from within the cauldron...

"I... have arrived too early..." The voice was hazy and indistinct, as if carrying the vicissitudes of ten thousand ages, possessing a sense of desolation, along with a trace of helplessness and exhaustion!

Arrived too early?

What did this mean?

Shi Hao was filled with shock and suspicion, then hurriedly asked, "Who are you?"

However, this time, the cauldron remained silent and motionless...

Or perhaps, it wanted to say something but was blocked...

Shi Hao was shaken, for he saw lightning ravaging the firmament, he saw those myriad trails of Lei Ting!

That Lei Ting instantly crashed toward the cauldron, yet unexpectedly, it was directly absorbed by the cauldron!

From within the cauldron, Profound Yellow Mother Qi surged forth again, spreading into the void, erasing all great fissures, as if severing cause and effect!

Shi Hao was alarmed; he remembered that unless an event altering cause and effect or overturning heaven and earth occurred, such an anomalous Lei Jie would be impossible.

In other words, their brief exchange of just a few sentences had already triggered a tremor in the world, as if destroying everything...

He was filled with shock and suspicion...

Then, he asked again, "Where do you come from?"

"I belong neither to the past nor to the present!" The voice came from within the cauldron!

Yet, precisely because of these words, the changes between heaven and earth became even more astonishing; streak after streak of tribulation lightning fell, as if intending to completely destroy this cauldron!

However...

"Boom!" The cauldron glowed; instantly, countless patterns appeared upon it, resembling formation diagrams, rising one after another, sealing heaven and cutting off earth, refining the power of the supreme tribulation lightning!

Shi Hao marveled...

Could this damn thing be an Immortal King?

Only after a long while did he calm down...

Pondering that person's words, he was once again filled with shock and suspicion...

Belonging neither to the past nor to the present...

Does that mean he comes from the future?

"You, are you from the future?" Even though Shi Hao already had a firm belief, he could not help but ask this.

The cauldron gave no further answer, as if defaulting to silence, or as if unable to answer...

Shi Hao's scalp went numb...

If it truly was the future, what calamity had occurred there? Why would it need to seek his aid?

Yes, it was seeking aid!

He still remembered that the first time he saw this cauldron, beneath that Black Abyss, the imprinted information he accidentally obtained stated that this cauldron had come to seek aid!

The future is terrifying!

Even the master of this cauldron needs to seek aid.

The master of this cauldron must absolutely be an Immortal King, right?

With such terrifying strength, if not an Immortal King, he would not believe it.

What kind of event could force even an Immortal King to seek aid?

At this moment, the cauldron spoke no more, as if fearing something...

Everything could only be guessed by Shi Hao himself!

"If I were in the future traveling to the past, what would I want to do?"

He muttered to himself, "If I returned to the past, it would merely be to understand the enemy, to comprehend why the Immortal Ancient Era reached its end, and to find methods to counter those enemies."

Using his own heart to substitute for another's, he guessed what the other party intended to do...

Suddenly, his expression stiffened: "Could it be that our era has been extinguished? That it has reached its end? That all living beings have perished, and the future has opened a new era? And they have come here to investigate the situation?"

Shi Hao felt dazed, somewhat melancholy.

Could it be that they must still follow the old path of the previous era? That this life will ultimately fail as well?

Shi Hao sighed: "In the future, where am I? Have I not appeared? Did I meet my end in this era?"

He subconsciously clenched his fist.

If the future is like this, then what of our current era?

There is a lack of hope!

But...

"I don't believe it!"

Shi Hao's eyes turned cold, and he spoke in a deep voice: "I will not pass away! I must transcend and become immortal, defeating all enemies across past and present!"

At this moment, the cauldron trembled violently, as if rejoicing, as if resonating with him!

Seeing this, Shi Hao asked again: "What exactly do you want to tell me?"

Whether seeking aid or exchanging information, the cauldron seemed intent on telling him something, yet for some reason, it could not speak clearly!

"In that battle, I want to see you!"

Suddenly, such a voice emanated from within the cauldron, as if resisting the rules hidden in the void!

"Hum!"

The next second, Shi Hao's whole body shook violently; it was as if he witnessed a mysterious scene!

At the same time, heaven and earth interwove, endless rules descended, and lightning accompanied by immortal qi began to surge wildly!

Meanwhile, within The Myriad Heavens and Worlds, countless people watched this scene, all feeling somewhat astonished...

"That cauldron again? Tsk, could it be that a future powerhouse has come to find Shi Hao?"

"Indeed, the words of that little fatty earlier were not groundless!"

"It's just unknown who this powerhouse is! What does he want from Shi Hao..."

"Laughable, arriving too early is actually acceptable?"

"However, speaking of which, the owner of this cauldron is truly powerful; isn't Shi Hao already strong enough now?"
