Chapter 1977 - Endure and Breakthrough

“Huang, you can just head on into the afterlife!”

Kun Di’s voice sounded. Several undying kings surrounded Darkness Willow Deity, preventing him from rushing over. Kun Di rushed over with the Immortal Smelting Pot in hand, suppressing forwards.

He was a giant, right now sweeping through everything. The other immortal kings couldn’t stop him at all!

For example, the Golden Fur Hou was belated by a palm strike from him until it coughed out large mouthfuls of blood. When it wanted to attack, in the end, it was blasted by a strand of immortal radiance from the Immortal Smelting Pot, its body breaking in half. It roared while tumbling backwards.

Kun Di’s magical power was endless, his undying might world shocking.

Bird Grandpa and Coin Elder immediately began to panic. They frantically fought, rushing forward. They endured their heavy injuries, facing the Immortal Smelting Pot head-on. This place erupted with brilliance, immortal light surging.

“Old thing, hand over your life! Do not even think about injuring my brother!” The Heavenly Horned Ant roared out, his eyes becoming scarlet red. He charged forward murderously.

He endured a strike from someone behind him, immediately slaughtering his way forward, trying to stop Kun Di. An undying king behind him pierced his body, the hole running from front to back, blood radiance dazzling.

However, this undying king’s arm was also broken by a wave of boundless force, releasing a kacha noise.

This was the Heavenly Horned Ant, the one with the greatest strength. Even though he suffered serious attacks, there would also be a wave of terrifying recoil power. Dao laws and symbols were endless, released ferociously.

Dang! The Heavenly Horned Ant rushed over, smashing into the Immortal Smelting Pot. His arms became golden, revealing extreme strength. Natural laws tangled about, terrifying beyond compare.

It was precisely this attack that didn't hold anything back that stopped the Immortal Smelting Pot. Otherwise, it would have definitely harmed Shi Hao, the consequences of this too horrible to imagine.

However, the Heavenly Horned Ant couldn’t hold on anymore after this strike either. His eyes became more and more red, blood rushing out from all seven apertures. His arms were convulsing, bones splitting open.

Kun Di was a giant, his magical force boundless. The weapon he activated, any random strike possessed heaven destroying earth shattering power.

“All of you, get lost! I want to kill Huang, no one can stop me!” Kun Di roared. His head of hair was sparkling. His body was skinny and shriveled, but there was a type of unrivaled aura to him.

His pupils were silver crosses. Blood energy surged, with a raise of his hand, he would be able to destroy all life in this world. He struck out forward, wishing to kill Shi Hao.

Dong!

The Darkness Willow Deity faced him. After it erupted with power, over ten thousand willow branches covered everything densely, bombarding the surrounding enemies, accompanied by darkness lightning, sweeping through all sides.

Its main body rushed over, stopping Kun Di. They were both giants, this type of battle was incredibly intense.

Hong!

At the limits of the world, immortal might pervaded the air, grandiose and majestic. There were immortal kings that descended, rushing over here.

“Kun Di, cease your insolence!” An elder appeared. Immortal King Qi Yu arrived, a giant, one of Immortal Domain’s current most powerful creatures.

Following at his side were Pan King and Hunyuan Immortal King, as well as others.

Kun Di glared angrily, his head flickering with silver hair. He held the Immortal Smelting Pot, erupting with unmatched power, truly wishing to slaughter his way over.

However, he knew that he already missed the best timing. Now that his old enemy Qi Yu appeared, it was hard for him to act as he pleased here.

The Heavenly Horned Ant, Golden Fur Hou and the others released a breath of relief.

Fortunately, Pan King, Hunyuan Immortal King and the others’ movements were swift, immediately providing aid after inviting some experts. Otherwise, the consequences would be too horrible to contemplate.

The other immortal kings were also hurrying over one after another.

“We’re leaving!”

Kun Di said. In the end, the foreign realm’s undying kings retreated helplessly.

Even when this battle ended, Shi Hao still didn’t revive. Everyone sensed that there was something wrong with him, or else for a world shocking cultivator like him, how could he remain oblivious to all of this?

The giant Qi Yu stepped forward. After carefully examining Shi Hao’s state, he frowned and said, “I do not know if it is good or bad. There is darkness power in his body, his flesh in a state of self destruction. Apart from this, he seems to be comprehending the dao, in some type of dao comprehension state, unable to struggle free.”

Darkness force? Everyone was shaken. If Huang fell into darkness, then that would be too much of a pity!

At the same time, the dao comprehension of an immortal king, to actually not be able to wake up from it, this also signified danger. Some people passed away in this type of meditation just like that.

This was an immortal king disaster!

If he couldn’t step over that trial, Huang might just die!

Not long afterwards, everyone left.

After that day, the Darkness Willow Deity, Number Two Under Heaven, Ecliptic Immortal Gold Daoist, Heavenly Horned Ant and others guarded this place seriously, protecting Shi Hao.

They knew that Shi Hao arrived at a pivotal moment. If he could make it through, it might be like a brand new world for him. If he failed, his body and dao might perish.

Time passed on slowly, another five thousand years gone. Shi Hao revived, opening his eyes. Divine radiance erupted.

There was a strand of darkness matter wriggling around like a venomous snake between his fingers, but it couldn’t chew through his flesh.

This was an astonishing type of accomplishment. The darkness source actually had no way of effectively corroding him.

At the same time, his eyes became increasingly deep. During these years, he was always pondering over his future path, wishing to break his shackles, see the light of emperor ascension.

Of course, this was what he deduced. As for how things truly were, he still needed to test things out.

Inside Imperial Court, there were great cheers that sounded. Shi Hao’s awakening made everyone release breaths of relief. He didn’t move at all these years, making many people uneasy, shadows looming over their minds.

“Child!” Shi Zhongtian was extremely happy. During these years, he had been extremely worried, fearing that his grandson would die.

Some old friends all came to see him when they heard the news.

In the end, when they heard that Shi Hao was going to step on the path of emperor ascension again, after their initial shock, many people revealed worried expressions. He was still going to continue? Were there going to be any dangers to his life?

“You are going to continue?” Darkness Willow Deity asked. It understood his dao laws, his path.

Number Two Under Heaven, Ecliptic Immortal Gold Daoist and the others were also worried, advising against it, suggesting for him to accumulate for a bit longer before trying again.

“The things that are deduced might not necessarily be true. There are some exceptional immortal kings who thought that they took that step, walking down their own emperor path, but when they truly carried it out, they failed at the last step, dying miserably.”

“Indeed, this type of path is the most dangerous one.”

“The one who sold fake medicine, the reason why his body was split into six parts, placed within immortal medicines, wasn’t this precisely because he forcefully attacked at the emperor path, suffering greatly, thus ended up being forced to create the Body Separation Great Method?”

“Right, the Butcher also previously almost died miserably!”

They advised against this, having Shi Hao proceed carefully.

It was because in their eyes, there was no one who could become an emperor in this world. Throughout time, all those who reached the pinnacle, regardless of how stunning they were, in the end, their lives and blood explained how terrifying this path was. It was clear that this path couldn’t be taken.

Those who insisted on continuing all died in the end!

“I believe that there are still paths leading to greater heights in this world. Even if emperor level is not reached, it will still be a bit further than immortal king.” Shi Hao said.

He personally experienced the opening of Origin Ancient Artifact, that bone crown polished from a skull. It actually suppressed him to the point of almost dying, this was already enough to explain the issue.

He wanted to continue, to make a breakthrough.

In the following three thousand years, Shi Hao sat there, carefully deriving all of his experiences. He believed that there would definitely be some type of breakthrough this time.

“My path is precisely to further perfect my own laws.” Shi Hao said to himself.

He could now dominate all in his path, his dao skills already at the very peak of Immortal King Realm. The reason why he could do this was because he established six great secret realms, truly stepping on his own path.

Now, he wanted to perfect it further, charge into the Emperor Realm.

Previously, Shi Hao wanted to open up a seventh great secret realm, but he ultimately failed, unable to find any way.

When he was suppressed by the bone crown, almost losing his life in the process, he previously saw that sphere of light above his head, the little figure who sat there. It roared with him, continuously being suppressed.

At that time, when pressured to a near death state, he felt that his strength increased somewhat, temporarily allowing him to resist the bone crown.

“Deity Three Feet Above the Head, this isn’t the final point. It should return to its original location, become one with me!”

Shi Hao said. That sphere of light above him could scatter out a rain of light, protect him, make his body impervious to all methods. However, this shouldn’t be the final secret realm.

He felt like this secret realm should ultimately return inside his body.

However, when he tested things out, truly wishing to merge it in, it left him a bit dispirited. He couldn’t do what he wished.

That sphere of light could be moved, it could be moved into his body, but to truly merge it was too difficult. He had no way of carrying it out.

Huang revived, but didn’t slaughter his way into the foreign realm, this made the group of undying kings doubtful. According to what they knew, this up and coming youngster was powerful beyond compare. After being attacked by them, he actually didn’t come knocking on their door, this didn’t make sense.

In reality, Shi Hao was furious. He decided to first attack at the breakthrough, and then unleash a great slaughter upon the foreign realm, sweep through all kings, completely settle things.

If others knew what he was thinking, they would definitely be stupefied. He wanted to directly sweep through the foreign realm’s kings? Just how bold was he?

Shi Hao didn’t have the slightest bit of good impression towards the foreign realm. Those undying kings, for the sake of the so-called key seed, had committed crimes far too grave.

If they only killed cultivators, that was one thing, but they carried out massacres, Anlan even seized Sin Province, causing those creatures to all perish, fall into darkness.

Meanwhile, these were still ‘small scale’ events. In the past, during Immortal Ancient’s battle, almost all clans in the Nine Heavens Ten Earths were wiped out, only a portion of creatures avoiding disaster.

After that battle, that entire world entered a deathly stillness. It was because all normal creatures were completely slaughtered.

Only after experiencing the nurturing of endless years, did this realm recover.

However, this also created a fragmented age. Heaven and earth were ruined, even immortal ascension was impossible, the entire system damaged. Many cultivators couldn’t advance into a higher level.

Shi Hao walked out from his land of seclusion, roaming about the world, experiencing everything around him. He looked towards the sky. This emperor path, could he succeed?

“I can!” He said incredibly decisively.

“Cultivation path, this is something all clans pursue, it is only proper for it to be difficult. What great dao is there where one can immediately succeed? We need to hack apart the thistles and thorns, to tread on a path of blood!”

Shi Hao’s expression became resolute. He made his decision, preparing to break through.

“Deity three feet above my head, that is my spirit. It is outside my body, seated above my head. When it returns into my body, I will be able to make use of its power, mind and body fusing into one.”

Shi Hao was going to forcefully head down this path!

This was a blood-soaked path, not a level road. He had to break new ground, accompanied by a song of bitterness.

That day, after Shi Hao returned, he prepared to forcefully attack at the emperor path, preparing to break through the king level!

“Why are you in such a rush? It is too dangerous! What if Kun Di appears again while you are breaking through?” Number Two Under Heaven was worried.

“You should invite Pan King, Hunyuan Immortal King and the others to help protect you!” The Ecliptic Immortal Gold Daoist said.

“There is no harm. I actually want them to all descend here!” Shi Hao’s eyes were brilliant.

Then, he began to attack at the limit. He sat in the void, his entire body erupting with endless blood energy, starting to tread on his own emperor path.

Honglong!

One could see that Shi Hao’s five secet realms began to all shine, producing endless divine chains of order. They were densely packed, rushing at that sphere of light swirling above his head.

This wasn’t a normal touching, but rather merging. That sphere of light ‘spirit’ was going to be merged into his body, become one with him.

Dong!

It was as if heaven and earth were splitting apart. This world trembled, primal chaos spreading, shaking up Immortal Domain. Experts from all sides were shocked, because this activity was too great.

“What is this little friend doing? This type of power is just too great!” In Immortal Domain, there were some immortal kings who were bewildered, watching that area. They all revealed shocked expressions.

“He wants to become an emperor, break through the king realm!”

“He is too reckless! If he produces this type of great disturbance, wouldn’t everyone know what he is doing?!” An immortal king said with a frown. He felt like Huang was too rash, that this would provoke a disaster upon himself.

If the foreign realm saw this, they would definitely come to stop this!

When Kun Di heard about this in the foreign realm, his eyes erupted with radiance. “He wants to break through? What a joke. Throughout endless time, no one could take that step. He was lucky enough to reach where he is today, yet he still vainly wishes to become an unmatched emperor? We will pay him a visit and send him back into reincarnation!”

However, he quickly frowned. “Don’t tell me Immortal Domain is purposely baiting us?”

“No, Huang really is breaking through. His entire body is covered in blood, about to cripple himself!” An undying king said positively.

“Alright, gather our troops. We are going to kill Huang! Invite Wu Shang, Invite the Demonic Cattail Tree, we are heading out together!” Kun Di said.

When the experts on the side heard this, their expressions all changed. Who was Wu Shang? He was an ancient undying king with Magical Immunity, his power unmatched. This was someone who couldn’t be defeated.

The Demonic Cattail Tree’s reputation even more so shocked all realms, everyone under heaven knowing about it.

“What? The Demonic Cattail Tree was still alive? Didn’t it fall in the battle of Immortal Ancient?” Someone said in shock, clearly confused.

“In the Age of Emperor Collapse, there was someone who refined a batch of unmatched immortal pills. My realm previously dominated the world, obtained many treasures, discovering one of these pills, using it to rescue the Demonic Cattail Tree.” Kun Di said with a cold and deep voice.

“Alright. Now that the giants have all gathered, even if Huang advances a step further, he still has no chance of surviving, let alone that he doesn’t have any chance of succeeding!”

“Let’s go to Realm Sea, contact those two dao friends, have them come with us and aid us in killing Huang!” Kun Di said coldly.

Everyone shivered inwardly. The dao friends Kun Di spoke of were definitely giants, or else how could he be on equal footing with them? This type of power, wouldn’t it be enough to overtake all of Immortal Domain?

“Huang is dead for sure!”

The undying kings were sure that this time, rivers of blood were going to flow through Immortal Domain.

In the depths of Immortal Domain, inside Guidance Ancient Palace, the nine-headed monster opened its eyes, its expression cold. “He wants to break through? Let’s go, we are also going to take a look!”

Immortal Domain was going to experience great chaos. Experts were gathering from all sides, all of them wishing to take action against Huang!
