Perfect World

Chapter 1502 - Number Two Under Heaven

Heavenly Beast Forest became chaotic, more and more people entering. A group of powerful cultivators were all chasing after Huang!

It was because whenever they discovered Shi Hao, there would always be people who would activate special magical artifacts. It would release dazzling light into the sky, expose his location

Fortunately, Heavenly Beast Forest really was too large, no boundary in sight. A single valley might stretch for hundreds of thousands of li, a mountain ridge extending for millions of li. Only a region as large as this was enough for Shi Hao to move through, give him space to escape.

Apart from this, the most crucial part was that the most dangerous creatures in this forest weren’t the foreign cultivators, but rather the heavenly beasts.

Once, Shi Hao was already almost caught, but in the end, he gritted his teeth, rushing into a cave, immediately drawing out an ancient beast that unleashed chaos in the entire mountain ridge.

There was another time where he was almost beheaded. In the end, he fell into a marsh, startling a rarely seen Light Dragon, six Self Release Realm cultivators swallowed up in one gulp as a result.

Comparatively speaking, Shi Hao was too small and weak, easily overlooked each time he encountered heavenly beasts. He wasn’t the first target of attack.

Despite this being the case, there were three times where Shi Hao was almost swallowed up by the heavenly beast, and countless other times where he was almost chopped up by the foreign enemies.

He really was running for his life. It threw all of Heavenly Beast Forest into chaos!

It was because more and more people were joining!

“Reporting! We were about to surround Huang, almost succeeded! However, six heavenly beasts were startled, continuously killing my side’s experts!”

Outside Heavenly Beast Forest, someone reported to the higher ups.

“Reporting, while running, Huang has killed the Blood Vine Clan’s young king!” Another person reported, triggering cries of alarm.

Blood Vine Clan was a plant system top level king race, extremely famous in their other side. Their strength was exceptionally powerful, the clan having an undying existence overseeing the clan’s fate. It has stood tall through endless generations.

Apart from this, not long ago, they even saw an expert from this clan, there was a Blood Vine precisely in Divine Medicine Mountain Range. This was precisely this clan’s supreme being, just that it was lost here.

“Not good, Heaven Distress Clan’s young master was killed by Huang along the way, body and spirit erased!” There was this piece of news that transmitted out, triggering a great commotion.

It was because Heaven Distress Clan’s origins were too great, almost becoming an Emperor Clan in the past. It had previously produced an unmatched great figure, name precisely Tian E<span id="footnote-ref-67f8">[1], his status the same as the current He Wushuang.</span>

It was rumored that he wanted to break through into becoming an undying king, but unfortunately died in the process.

However, the opportunities he left behind were too many. Regardless of whether they were scriptures, undying weapons, or his own true blood and other things, they had all been inherited by this clan.

It was rumored that this clan produced another powerful individual, someone who might very well take Tian E’s path!

The death of this type of clan’s young master definitely produced a storm. There might very well be extraordinary experts who are sent out as a result.

At the same time, Imperial Pass’ people also received the news.

“What? The foreign powers have surrounded Huang? This won’t do, we have to provide assistance, we can’t waste any more time!”

“We have to stop all of this!”

Even a few long life families’ elders couldn’t sit still anymore. They felt more and more like that rotten wooden chest was too important!

At the same time, many experts in Imperial Pass felt a wave of humiliation. Their later generation was being chased after, yet they couldn't do anything, unable to rescue him.

“There is no rush. Great Elder has left with another senior.” Someone consoled everyone.

It was because it was useless no matter how many people went, the other side’s great army were outside Heavenly Beast Forest. There were even a few great supreme beings, so if they really fought, it would be unimaginable.

Right now, Heavenly Beast Forest became more and more dangerous, extremely chaotic.

Shi Hao ran for his life, stirring up great disorder along the way. He ran across millions of li, drawing over all of the cultivators in this region, all of them chasing after him.

In reality, after learning that the rotten wooden chest was in his hands, the leaders outside Heavenly Beast Forest long set the order, sending more powerful individuals in to kill Huang, bring back the wooden chest.

Now, Shi Hao already didn’t try to draw in more experts, because he was going to be completely surrounded soon, fall into an impossible situation.

“If you all want to die, then let’s just die together!” Shi Hao said coldly. He completely went for broke.

After stirring up all of Heavenly Beast Forest, in the end, he chose a direction, running directly there.

He wanted to drag all of these people down with him, of course, he wanted to live even more, avoid this disaster.

If half of the ones behind him died, then Shi Hao would be satisfied, because most of them were Self Release Realm cultivators. He counted eighty or ninety just from what he saw alone.

Together with these great experts’ younger generation, followers, and others, there were figures everywhere. It was as if a flood was gathering over.

The other side’s people long hated Shi Hao bitterly. Along the way, they suffered heavy losses because of the heavenly beasts. Because there were too many people, making them a huge target, there was no way they could completely avoid danger.

“Huang, this time, I want to see where you will run to!”

Those chasing after him were confident he couldn’t escape, that he was completely trapped, about to be captured and killed.

Shi Hao decisively advanced, his objective precisely the place where the withered tree was. He wanted to enter, have it kill everyone.

It was because he had personally seen just how terrifying that withered tree was when it displayed power. The first foreign group that rushed in here was completely wiped out by it.

He gradually left the mountain region, wind rushing past his ears. Shi Hao ran extremely quickly, approaching that place.

Ancient trees towered into the heavens, giant vines winded about the mountains. This region was extremely secluded, no ape cries or tiger roars. There were no heavenly beasts roaming this area.

From the distance, Shi Hao already saw a withered tree’s rough outline. It was precisely in the depths of the mountain range, its figure gradually appearing.

When he came here, he restrained all of his combat aura, not daring to release any killing intent. It was because this ancient tree was just too terrifying.

“Last time, I was the only one who didn’t take action, everyone else all attacked, and in the end, I was the only one who survived, everyone else all dead.” Shi Hao said to himself.

This was his speculation, as well as what he was relying on by coming here. He didn’t know if it would succeed.

It could be said that Shi Hao was taking an extremely great risk, wishing to use this withered tree to kill all of the Self Release Realm great cultivators. This was an extremely crazy plan, and also dangerous, one that might result in his own death.

“Huang, you won’t be able to escape!” In the back, sounds of cold laughter rang out, making everyone shiver inwardly.

A group of cultivators quickly approached, bringing their younger generation with them.

Meanwhile, Shi Hao’s speed became even faster, because he had to close the distance. He couldn’t allow the fastest individuals to get within range of attack.

He hoped that when the time came, when he stopped on his own, the group that was chasing after him would surround him in front of that withered tree. That way, they would all be wiped out!

This was a crazy plan. The other side didn’t know that there was this terrifying withered tree here. This was what Shi Hao was betting on.

Soon afterwards, Shi Hao saw that tree. It was extremely large, but it didn’t have a single leaf. It was entirely dark black, only dried branches extending out. Who knew just how many tens of thousands of years it had lived for.

This withered tree made Shi Hao immediately become incredibly serious. He was extremely nervous inside.

He was extremely worried that this tree would act out ahead of time, immediately extend its branches and kill everyone.

It clearly lacked vitality, not having a single branch, so why did it possess such terrifying destructive power?

Shi Hao got closer. Another few dozen li and he would be in front of the ancient tree.

However, in that instant, light shone from beneath his feet. He was stunned, because he discovered that the piece of earth he had stepped on was quite unusual.

Not a stalk of grass grew on the piece of earth he stepped on. It was ten zhang in size, interweaving with patterns, quickly shining.

He was just passing through, but as a result, he actually ended up activating an ancient formation.

Weng!

Space was blasted through, producing a passage. Shi Hao was thrown in without choice.

“Not good, that fella has been transported away!” The group of people behind him said hatefully.

In reality, Shi Hao was extremely unwilling. He already completed all of his preparations, wishing to bring them before the withered tree, send them to the afterlife.

If this happened, then it would definitely be a spectacular battle accomplishment against the foreign army!

However, at the crucial moment, he was actually transported out.

Before the void passage closed, the foreigners all saw the scene at the end of the path.

“Ah, it’s that place!”

“The central ancient land, it’s not far from this place!”

“Regardless of whether that place is a restricted land or not, we have to go! We can’t lose the rotten wooden chest! Shutuo and Anlan great ones have already given absolute orders!”

After the group of experts stopped here, they all quickly made their decision, saying that they wouldn’t stop here!

As soon as Shi Hao approached the exit, he knew what this place was. It was because he had previously seen it from far away.

Peng!

He landed on the ground. A shiver that came from the depths of his soul ran through his body!

This was a sacred land, the surroundings lush with plant life, all of the leaves shining, extremely brilliant. Essence energy curled about.

Up ahead, where was the center of this place was, not a blade of grass grew, no plant life to speak of at all.

However, this didn’t give one a type of desolate feeling, instead making one feel that that place was pure and holy, untainted by a speck of dust.

There were some mountains in the central land up ahead. It was incomparably vast, all stone material. They all flowed with chaotic energy, accompanied by some immortal radiance!

This was an unimaginable paradise, a place that produced true immortal energy.

Above the mountains was a giant mass. Immortal energy pervaded the air, lingering about it. It floated in midair; this was the source of Shi Hao’s unease.

This was a living creature. When Shi Hao had just entered Heavenly Beast Forest, it was this creature’s roar that resounded. He had also seen it before from the distance.

Upon closer inspection, that ancient beast had a chain around its body, bound to the mountains below. It was actually locked down here!

One had to understand that there was an immortal dao weapon stabbed through its head! It carried immortal energy, extremely astonishing.

Even after having its skull impaled by an immortal weapon, it still didn’t die, still having life force!

On top of the mountains below, there was a stele. The chain that bound the ancient beast was wrapped precisely around this. There were four words: Number Two Under Heaven.

“Over there!” The foreign cultivators chased over as well, rushing into this place!
