Perfect World

Chapter 1924 - Transcendence Piece

He finally achieved immortality!

Shi Hao had waited just way too long for this day. The years of cultivation were ruthless, his loved ones, his friends, his lovers… he had missed out on just too much on this path.

For cultivation, he endured the torment of loneliness, each seclusion lasting hundreds to over a thousand years. It was to the extent where in the Age of Emperor Collapse, more than ten thousand years easily passed. For normal people, how could this be endured?

Fortunately, the hundreds of thousands of years were lost during the Age of Emperor Collapse, or else if it was carried out in the present world, it would be even more cruel.

Those who achieved immortality rarely reached perfection in the mortal world. A single instance of seclusion and the blue sea would have turned to mulberry fields. At that time, what loved ones, what wife and children, most of them were already parted eternally by death.

Even if it was Shi Hao, what could he do?

He achieved immortality, but what about his parents, his dao companion, his child? They were all buried in Stone Village. He couldn’t see them again, just the thought alone left him with sadness!

“The emotions and desires of mortals, the hundred faces of the secular world, these are essential things to life. Meanwhile, I’ve lost so much…” Shi Hao said to himself.

The moment he achieved immortality, he didn’t feel any emotional fluctuations, no happiness, instead disappointment and frustration. He continued all this way, only on the day he achieved immortality did he understand what he missed out on, what he lost, what he regretted.

“Immortal ascension… sigh!” Shi Hao felt a bit pained.

Back then, he entered the Nine Heavens precisely to reach the peak of cultivation, leaving Sin Province’s Fire Mulberry fields, parting with Huo Ling’er.

Now, how could he not feel any regret?

Huo Ling’er already became like that, her flesh was still there, but what about her soul? Where exactly was she?

Shi Hao knew that in the following period, perhaps he might lose even more. There would be times when even true immortals were powerless, when he had to watch as the people at his side died one after another, passing away under the passage of time.

Even if he achieved immortality, there was no avoiding the loneliness of the world, the solitude of being alone.

Weng!

The void trembled lightly. In the darkness, crack after crack appeared. A demonic mist that was entirely pitch-black like ink appeared, constructing a passage. This was a move from the side of darkness.

“Kill!”

Shi Hao released a great roar.

A fist smashed out, immortal light surging, accompanied by endless auspicious brilliance, smashing that place apart with a loud noise.

He hated the darkness corrosion bitterly. If it wasn’t for the Cultivationless Age completely descending, making the creatures of darkness feel restraining fear, preventing them from easily invading, he might have experienced great issues during his immortal ascension. Back then, this was how Great Elder died, falling to darkness.

Shi Hao achieved immortality in the secular world. This time, not even darkness matter and inauspiciousness could stop his advance.

“How many years has it been? This is an immortal born in the world of mortals, truly achieving immortal dao status in an age where immortal ascension is impossible. Just how strong is his strength? It is definitely greater than other true immortals!”

Within a restricted region, a creature released a light sigh.

Imperial Court erupted into commotion. He achieved immortality, Shi Hao was now a true immortal, able to look down on all experts in this world! He really rose up, from now on, he didn’t have to worry about the corrosion of time, able to coexist with the world.

For Imperial Court, the significance of this was too great. If Shi Hao possessed long life, existed with the world, then that meant that Imperial Court’s inheritance could continue eternally without perishing!

The ghost immortals, the two true immortal level heroic spirits and the Seven-Colored Immortal Gold Man all immediately rushed into the depths of the cosmos, witnessing Shi Hao’s miracle.

The Heavenly Horned Ant, Mu Qing, Emperor Butterfly and others all moved as well, rushing here.

However, shortly afterwards, they stopped again, because they noticed abnormalities.

The immortal light there was dazzling, auspicious multicolored light shining in endless streaks, completely surrounding this place. It was just too dazzling.

“What is that?”

Many people were startled, even the ghost immortals and Seven Colored Immortal Gold Man’s pupils contracted, really wishing to dive over. That type of radiance was extremely dazzling and also extremely peaceful, as if a treasure was appearing in this world.

In the depths of the cosmos, Shi Hao sat there, saying to himself, “Turns out it was like this!”

After achieving immortality, he sensed something. When he operated the True Primordial Record, it reacted with Supreme Hall’s snow-white case, which was also the mountain treasure that appeared near Stone Village.

Then, this case actually merged together with Stone Village’s white cauldron, becoming sparkling and translucent.

It was just too sudden!

This was the small white cauldron gifted to Shi Hao by the Five-Colored Sparrow, previously used to seal his own child. However now, that little fella was sealed in Divine Origin Liquid, sealed up in Stone Village.

This cauldron was kept by Shi Hao at his side. Now, after he achieved immortality, it underwent such a huge transformation!

“When I operated the True Primordial Record, it also startled the mountain treasure and the little white cauldron, the two merging after they made contact, could it be…” Shi Hao was moved.

He was extremely shocked, and also extremely hopeful.

Time flowed on.

In the end, the precious case merged with the small cauldron, immediately becoming perfect. The bottom and cauldron walls no longer had caved in areas, instead becoming smooth, completely filled.

This was a cauldron, completely the same as the bone material of the True Primordial Record, snow-white like jade.

The mountain treasure disappeared.

The surface of the small cauldron was covered in diagram symbols, symbols were everywhere. There was an ancient method recorded on it, still extremely ancient, extremely simple.

“Transcendence piece!”

Shi Hao’s eyes erupted with divine brilliance, revealing an expression of shock. This really was searching everywhere, but then what he looked for suddenly appeared when he turned his head.

There was a period when Shi Hao searched everywhere, looking for this piece of secret technique, but in the end didn’t find anything.

Who would have thought that it was right by his side!

The True Primordial Record was divided into three pieces, the upper piece Divine Guidance, the middle piece Transcendence and the last piece which was unknown.

Shi Hao stared at this small cauldron, examining it carefully, engraving all of the ancient symbols in his heart. Then, he closed his eyes, starting to study them.

After who knew how much time passed, he opened his eyes. The Transcendence piece was extraordinary after all. It still used the most simple, fundamental symbols of the world to construct great dao profound mysteries.

The so-called Transcendence was to cross over through the bitter sea of the world of mortals, and then ultimately become everlasting and imperishable, forever living in this world.

There was no concrete method, only simple and ancient dao, using the world’s most basic symbols to construct this world’s various secrets, expound on the great dao’s characteristics.

“I’ve achieved immortality already, it doesn’t have much meaning for me. However, the two-sided verification still granted me much enlightenment.”

The Transcendence piece was extremely mysterious, and also extremely powerful. It was a true unmatched great method.

The ghost immortals and Seven-Colored Immortal Gold Man stared from afar, looking at the white cauldron in front of Shi Hao’s body, their eyes brilliant, inwardly swallowing. However, they still endured it.

This was Huang’s belonging, they truly didn’t dare fight over it!

Years passed one after another. In a flash, another millenia passed.

Shi Hao not only strengthened his own cultivation, he was also comprehending great methods.

Honglonglong!

Heaven and earth made great movements, primal chaos surging. In this place, an indistinct figure was seated, accompanied by endless radiance. He slowly opened his eyes.

“I’ve settled a worry, left behind my path, my inheritance. This way, even if something unexpected happens, it doesn’t matter anymore. There will be a successor to take my place.”

Shi Hao said to himself, actually speaking these words.

Immediately afterwards, endless thunder radiance poured down, actually even more terrifying than the one emerging after crossing immortal tribulation.

Shi Hao’s voice resounded through this heaven and earth, shaking up the Nine Heavens Ten Earths, echoing through the world. Sure enough, it was even more terrifying than when he achieved immortality.

“Human body secret realm -- Sea of Reincarnation!”

When he released a great roar, the entire world trembled. Everyone saw a sea rise and fall in the depths of the cosmos, a sea of life accompanied by death energy.

“Human body secret realm -- Dao Palaces!”

When this roar sounded, scripture noises shook the world. In that instant, it suppressed all of the scriptures the cultivators were currently cultivating, as if there was a type of great dao ringing through the mortal world.

That day, the creatures who cultivated in seclusion were all startled, all of them making some breakthroughs.

This really was terrifying. How could it be like this?

“Human body secret realm -- Four Extremes!”

After a great roar sounded, the world’s four extremes shook greatly, as if endless power descended, becoming primal chaos, rushing into the heavens and moving the earth.

Even in the restricted region, there were ancient creatures who were shocked, saying, “This is the creation of a method, completely walking his own path! Now that he created this method, it is interfering with the trajectory of the great dao, affecting the cultivation progress of others when studying scriptures!”

Some of the creatures in the restricted regions were truly startled. This was simply inconceivable!

Someone was creating a method, but it was different from the past. This person stepped on an entirely different path! During the initial part of this method’s creation, it was simply like commanding the world!

This type of irregular scene would appear whenever a type of system first started, making even the world feel fear!

“Dragon Transformation!”

When these words sounded, a draconic cry sounded between heaven and earth, the entire world trembling. Everyone continuously shook, a great dragon rising up into the sky from behind them.

“Immortal Platform!” Following these two words, the world resonated and the great dao rumbled. Not only did the radiance in this world become resplendent, even the dark cosmos became bright.

The various places were all like this because the heads of creatures from all clans were shining, as if there was a type of dao flame that was ignited, a seed buried within.

“Too powerful! This type of method is extremely frightening! Even before it has been inherited, all clans are already resonating with it. It is the same as planting a dao seed in everyone’s hearts!”

“Only when this type of technique first appears will there be this type of terrifying irregular scene!”

The restricted regions couldn’t remain calm anymore. Even the ancient experts who were slumbering were roused awake, unable to help but wake up, returning to this world.

Shi Hao obtained the Transcendence piece, allowing him to finally perfect his own method. Even without the body as a seed, those of later generations could still cultivate. He completed this path.

An unprecedented path was created, one that started from the Sea of Reincarnation!

Once this type of method was completed, the effects would be too great. That was why the heavenly tribulation that descended was even more terrifying than that of immortal ascension.

Back then, when he created the method, there was already devastating lightning tribulation that descended, almost destroying his body and spirit, let alone this time.

However, the current Shi Hao was already on a whole different level than before, he achieved immortality. Compared to before, it was unknown just how many times more powerful he became.

In the following decades, Shi Hao remained under lightning radiance, he was blasted until his entire body was scorched black several times, even his immortal body cracking, blood splashing over the world.

However, he made it through each time.

The amount of times he became injured was fewer and fewer, his body gradually shining, becoming incredibly sturdy.

Of course, later on, this heavenly tribulation also changed, becoming stronger. One time, he was seriously injured, but he recovered once again.

After endless tempering, a whole century of time passed just like that. Shi Hao spent this entire time under heavenly tribulation.

Just how terrifying of a matter was this? Such a thing had never been heard of before. When had there ever been a heavenly tribulation that continued for a hundred years?

It was all because the effects this time were too great, disturbing the balance of the world. A different type of path, a completely different system appeared just like that, shaking up the great world.

This was heaven-defying!

After being bathed in flames of thunder for a hundred years, scorched for a century, lingering between life and death, after finally making it through, Shi Hao’s dao skills surged. This was the same as undergoing a complete transformation and sublimation, stabilizing his secular immortality foundation, moreover strengthening him further.

These hundred years of time were comparable to cultivating for tens of thousands of years. It was because this time was spent under heavenly tribulation.

“This path, for the creator of this type of cultivation system, after successfully making it through, the benefits obtained would be unimaginable.” Even the people in restricted regions were sighing, a bit envious.

They recalled that in the Age of Emperor Collapse, there was someone who established an ancient method. In the end, it was rumored that his achievement almost took him directly into the Immortal King Realm, able to overlook all!

“It is time for me to head out.” Shi Hao opened his eyes, his gaze like two immortal swords, tearing through the void. He erased all of the heavenly tribulation lightning, his body imperishable, sturdy and unbreakable. He decided that it was time to head to the other side!
