Chapter 1902 - Heaven Connecting Land
Lightning Spirits, there were several hundred of them here!
Shi Hao was extremely shocked, but at the same time filled with curiosity, full of a desire for exploration. Back then, he personally saw that affair, always trying to figure out what happened. He didn’t expect to see them again today.
Who was the one they were carrying? After returning to Immortal Domain, they actually came here.
It looked close, there was an ancient cave there, but when he truly approached, Shi Hao was shaken. The path beneath his feat was disappearing, behind him was an endlessly starry sky.
As for that celestial body, that void crack, everything long disappeared.
As Shi Hao walked forward, the path behind him disappeared, nothing left behind.
He could see star domains disappear one after another as he continued forward, vanishing just like that.
This really was a mysterious land. This road looked so close, the weeping sounds from that ancient cave audible, yet when he truly walked up, he then discovered how sinister everything was.
In that short moment, it was unknown just how far Shi Hao went. He crossed large amounts of cosmos.
He finally arrived!
When he approached the ancient cave, it surged with primal chaos and immortal mist, hazy and indistinct, impossible to see through. This place contained heaven shocking secrets.
Suddenly, the hundreds of Lightning Spirits raised their heads, looking in his direction.
The ancient cave was full of spiritual essence, having primal chaos essence, all life source energy and immortal energy. This place was too extraordinary, essence energy rising in spirals, surrounding this place.
The whimpering sounds stopped, the several hundred eyes stared at Shi Hao!
“I have met you all before, I bear no malice.” Shi Hao said.
Regardless, the other part was this sad, so it still made those who saw them feel a bit of sympathy. This was especially when these were Lightning Spirits, an extremely powerful clan! This clan were the rarest species, the clansmen not many, yet several hundred of them gathered here.
Even if these weren’t all of the Lightning Spirits in existence, it wasn’t far from it.
It was because according to the ancient texts’ recordings, Lightning Spirits were extremely rare, only a few hundred discovered from the past until now!
It was still that woven straw mat that was engraved with traces of time, covered in blood. Even after a thousand years passed, it still remained unchanged, its appearance the same. It really was unknown just whose corpse this was.
Shi Hao wanted to chat with them, but the Lightning Spirits were all on guard, extremely cold, carrying great expressions of sorrow.
This was their final destination. They carried this straw mat, defending it for a thousand years, this in itself could be considered a special kind of loyalty.
“They failed.” The restricted region lord said.
Hou…
A Lightning Spirit that was several meters long, entirely golden yellow, considered one of the most powerful leaders, raised its head and roared into the sky, displaying its anger.
The other Lightning Spirits whimpered, tears tumbling down from their eyes.
They weren’t humanoid creatures, but they carried this type of emotions, expressions full of grief, immersed in incomparable sorrow.
“Bark… Ao!”
Suddenly, a noise sounded from inside the cave. Shi Hao immediately became stunned, starting to suspect if he heard incorrectly.
Bark…
This was also a weeping sound, but there were dog barks mixed in. It was too sudden, coming from inside the cave.
Shi Hao’s expression became rigid, becoming a bit stunned, a bit lost. After hesitating for a moment, he began to walk inside.
The hundreds of Lightning Spirits didn’t stop him, they only guarded that straw woven mat, not paying Shi Hao any attention.
“Aowu… bark!”
Great sobbing sounded, dog barking sounding continuously, the voice extremely loud, and also extremely hurt.
Shi Hao stared into the depths of this ancient cave that released chaotic energy, confirming that he wasn’t mistaken. There really was a dog, its size not big, no bigger than the size of a palm.
It was currently lying there, hugging its head and crying in pain, extremely hurt.
“Without End Great One, how can you cast me away like this, leave just like that? Wuwu… we can’t meet again… you are supposed to be the unrivaled immortal king, how can you wither away like this! After endless ages, will you be able to return to this world? Aowuwu…”
That dog wept, tears continuously falling from its eyes.
Shi Hao was stunned. He saw the little dog. A thousand years ago, he saw it personally enter Immortal Domain, and now, it was actually here, appearing in this mysterious ancient cave.
Back then, when the little dog left, it had said that it had to head to a certain place, to verify a few old matters, try to look for Without End Immortal King.
That place connected the heavens, connected the spirit, connected past and present, this was what the little dog said.
In the past, Without End Immortal King and Reincarnation Immortal King were proficient in the great dao of time, pondered over reincarnation, previously seeing through many mysteries of past and present. Were there really reincarnated people, reincarnated things?
The little dog had mentioned it before, that that was the path the two great immortal kings were trying to examine and confirm.
Who would have thought that a thousand years later, Shi Hao would find it here!
It was first the Lightning Spirits who carried that corpse on the woven straw mat, and then he saw the little dog. They actually came to the same destination, this place was extraordinary after all.
“You…” The little dog sensed that someone was approaching, suddenly turning around. It was immediately stunned, feeling that it was inconceivable. “How did you end up here?”
It was still crying, not hiding anything. Compared to how rampant it was a thousand years ago, it was as if it was a completely different creature.
“This is the place you were talking about?” Shi Hao looked at it.
“Wu…” When the little dog heard this, it began to sob in pain again.
“Without End Immortal King is dead, unable to come back anymore, not even this place is enough to save him, there is completely no hope left, aowuwu…” This little dog cried out, as if its lungs were splitting and its heart was tearing.
It was that place after all!
“In this world, there are no reincarnated people… perhaps only similar flowers, similar people. Without End Immortal King’s true soul, I cannot see it anymore.”
The little dog lied there, body already twitching from crying, already about to faint.
Shi Hao sighed. For this dog to be this emotional, one could see just how great the kindness Without End Immortal King showed it was. This little dog was always trying to revive him.
“Tell me about it, what exactly happened?” Shi Hao said.
“I brought Without End Immortal King’s immortal bell fragments, as well as his last drop of immortal king essence blood which carries his soul fragments within it. When I came here, I released it into the heaven connecting, spirit connecting, past and present connecting land, hoping for his revival, but failed. Ah… wu…”
The little dog felt more emotional the more it spoke, sobbing.
Shi Hao was shocked. Immortal king essence blood, how precious was this? It contained tremendous karma.
Pan King is currently at his peak, unrivaled under the sky, yet he only gave the restricted region lord three drops, and this could already be considered returning the past’s great favor.
“What happened in the end?” The restricted region lord asked, asking the little dog.
“I guarded it for many years, but in the end, the immortal king essence blood dried up, its spirituality disappeared. In the end, it even more so burned, while the immortal king fragments turned to powder, becoming completely destroyed.” The little dog’s voice sunk, carrying an emotion of despair.
The immortal king essence blood was completely used up, the weapon fragments turning to ashes, this was the same as everything turning to nothing!
“And? Was there anything else different that happened?” The restricted region lord asked.
“In the final moment, I seemed to have seen Without End Immortal King. He smiled towards me, and then exploded, turned into a rain of light. Then, the immortal king essence blood completely burned up, the immortal bell fragments went up into ashes, everything gone!” The little dog wept.
It was full of self blame. Even Without End Immortal King’s final drop of immortal king essence blood was buried there, meaning that there was no hope of ever reviving him, perishing eternally.
“Perhaps he succeeded.” The restricted region lord looked pensive. “Only, endless ages, millions and millions of years are needed to verify it.”
“Even if there is reincarnation, it is a great era reincarnation, it won’t happen in this age. Perhaps Without End will appear again in the next great era!” The restricted region lord said it like this.
He was only making conjectures, feeling like before the immortal king essence blood dried up, the rain of light might have brought away hope.
The little dog immediately stopped crying, widening its eyes, looking at him in a stupor, its voice trembling as it said, “After endless years, in a different great era, Without End Immortal King might reappear in this world?”
“Whether anything is impossible, if anything is possible, who could say for sure?” The restricted region lord said with a sigh.
“Who is the one they brought back?” Shi Hao asked the little dog, gesturing towards the Lightning Spirits.
“Lightning Emperor!” The little dog only said these two words, revealing the identity of the corpse on the straw woven mat.
“Right.” Shi Hao suddenly realized, inwardly nodding. It could only be the Lightning Emperor. Apart from him, who else could leave the Lightning Spirits in such grief?
Even though he didn’t know that the Lightning Spirits Clan followed the Lightning Emperor, through how the Lightning Spirits devoured lightning, using it as food, he could guess that they definitely shared great karma with the Lightning Emperor.
“It’s that person… what a pity, his potential truly was incomparable, considered dying an untimely death.” The restricted region lord said with a sigh.
The crystal skull, golden arm bone and bleeding eyeball, these three freaks had never heard of the Lightning Emperor’s name, because the age they resided in was too ancient.
Lightning Emperor, he controlled lightning pools, excelled at fighting. In the past, he was known as one of the later experts who rose up with the greatest potential, the youngest member of the Vicious Ten.
The reason why he was one of the Vicious Ten was because his potential was tremendous, and that was why he was called a Lightning Emperor. Otherwise, who dared hold this title?
Unfortunately, it was precisely because he was extraordinary, his potential extraordinary, that the other side’s undying kings went all out against him, causing his early downfall.
It was because what he grasped was lightning, known to be enforcing the law in the heavens’ place, the incarnate of heaven’s will. If he was truly allowed to grow to his peak, becoming a king, even the other side would feel great apprehension towards him.
That was why the undying kings sent more than one person to ambush him, causing him to die miserably on the battlefield.
Who would have thought that those Lightning Spirits would be this loyal and devoted, searching for the Lightning Emperor’s remains generation after generation. In the end, they really did find it.
These Lightning Spirits knew about this place. However, in the end, unknown if it was because of their sincerity which moved the world, they opened the void crack, allowing them to enter the ancient cave.
“The Lightning Emperor’s essence blood has been completely lost, his life gone, not a single soul fragment left. It will definitely fail.” The little dog said.
During these thousand years, it saw everything clearly.
When Shi Hao heard this, he released a sigh. He possessed the Lightning Emperor’s inheritance, he had previously obtained a piece of broken armor. This could be considered quite the karma as well.
Shi Hao walked over, seriously paying his respects. This was the corpse of one of the Vicious Ten, known as the Lightning Emperor, originally the pride of heaven with astonishing talent!
The gaze of the hundreds of Lightning Spirits became a bit gentle. These creatures really were extremely loyal and devoted, always guarding this corpse.
The restricted region lord shook his head. Without essence blood, without a bit of soul fragment, it wouldn’t do much here.
“That is, unless this corpse is buried here, eventually gaining sentience. After being nurtured by this place, after endless years, perhaps an unmatched expert can appear again.” The restricted region lord said.
