Chapter 1976 - Crown

The chest began to crack like fine jade and then it blossomed like a flower’s petals, separating piece by piece. They carried a dazzling rain of light, carrying sky burning fiery light.

The Origin Ancient Artifact was opened!

Ah…

” Shi Hao released a great roar, holding his head, backing up. His entire body was covered in blood, the top of his head about to be cleaved open, his body full of cracks.

His body was world shocking, at the top of immortal kings, yet right now, he still couldn’t endure the tremendous suffering. He was swept by nine types of brilliance, body about to become rotten.

This was something unimaginable. He already cultivated an immortal king body, moreover refined it through the Imperishable Scripture, able to dominate Immortal Domain and Realm Sea. Strictly in terms of the physical body, who could compare with him?

Even if there was someone, they could still only be similar to him.

However, when Origin Ancient Artifact had just been opened, his body was already breaking to pieces, even his bones exposed, his skull as if hacked into by a giant axe, about to split apart.

Inside the chest was a sphere of dazzling radiance, this light wrapped around something.

Even someone as powerful as Shi Hao, when his eyes looked over, they were dripping with blood. Not even an immortal king could stare directly at it, just how horrifying of a thing was this?

Dong!

Shi Hao backed up, but in the end, he stood stably. Even though blood was trickling out from his eyes, he still kept them open. He finally saw something.

It was a sphere of light, flowing within it was nine-colored brilliance!

It was just too strong. That sphere of light was in liquid form, like an immortal jade elixir, melting… a head.

A head? It was actually a head?!

Shi Hao was shocked, no matter what, he never expected to see this type of scene. It was actually a divine corpse?

“Something’s not right?”

He forcefully endured the intense pain, wiping away the blood from in front of his eyes. He stared at it again, using his unmatched magical eyes and the most powerful divine awareness to perceive it, wishing to see through just what it was exactly.

That skull seemed to be indistinct, turning into snow-white bones. It was still wrapped in nine-colored brilliance, but at the same time, there was strong darkness matter at the center.

The snow-white bones and black matter, when the two were compared, it formed a striking scene.

“Is it an emperor crown?!”

This was Shi Hao’s voice, his body shaking, starting to break apart. He was suppressed by a wave of mysterious power, and then he was about to completely be erased here.

He was sure that if it was any other immortal king that was here, they would have already collapsed, nothing remaining. Even someone as powerful as him who had cultivated the Imperishable Scripture was breaking apart to pieces, about to explode here.

Hu!

That snow-white bone flew over. It was shaped like a crown, carrying a simple and ancient aura and a wave of unrivaled dignity, as if an emperor descended upon the world!

This was an imperial crown polished from skulls, spotlessly white and sparkling, flowing with strange and sinister radiance. It scattered out radiance just like that, its nine-colored energy thick, crushing all things.

Shi Hao couldn’t endure it anymore. His body was rocking back and forth, even his soul about to be erased.

Hong!

It carried unmatched power. It landed on Shi Hao’s head, touching his black hair, about to place itself there.

The bone crown was heavy, just like endless stars being crushed together, even more so like condensed cosmos. It directly descended, landing on Shi Hao’s head.

Shi Hao released a loud cry. His skull cracked apart, crushed to the point where it was going to shatter. Even his primordial spirit almost shattered, about to be suppressed here.

This was too dangerous of a situation!

What natural luck, this was clearly a situation of inevitable death.

Honglonglong!

Chaotic lightning appeared. This bone crown was mysterious and powerful. After landing on Shi Hao’s head, bone spurs were produced one after another, stabbing into his skull as if they wanted to take root.

At the same time, nine-colored brilliance swirled, spreading through Shi Hao’s entire body.

Of course, the most terrifying thing was that the spotlessly white crown still had a thick ring of black matter surrounding it, wishing to take root in Shi Hao’s body.

Shi Hao believed that this was the darkness source, even stronger than all of the darkness matter he had seen before, several times so.

This strand alone was enough to contaminate the entire three thousand provinces!

All of this took place in an instant, fast to the point where one couldn’t react.

“Get lost!”

Shi Hao was angry. This bone crown crushed him until his entire body was splitting apart, producing bone spurs that wanted to stab into his body. Was this trying to suck away his essence or to merge together?

Dang!

He held the rotten wooden chest in hand, smashing it towards his own head. It immediately caused those bone spurs to fly backwards.

He didn’t know what kind of background this rotten wooden chest had. It was actually this miraculous!

Chi!

At the same time, his other hand brandished the Everlasting Sword Core, hacking towards his head. Sword radiance surged, immortal ascension light resplendent. With a 

dang

 noise, it landed on the white crown.

Hou!

It was as if there was a light shout that sounded from the sword core. Void images were produced. A creature sat on the ancient coffin, seeming extremely lonely under the setting sun. He stared at the blood-soaked great earth and the endless graves. At this time, he suddenly raised his head.

With a 

dong

 sound, after this bone crown was struck by the sword core, it separated!

Bo!

Then, wave after wave of petals closed, returning to one with that chest’s fragments, combining together, collecting the white crown within, covering everything.

This place became peaceful, as if nothing happened. That chest flowed with dazzling brilliance, rising and falling in the void.

However, how could nothing have happened?!

Shi Hao’s body was in tatters, his primordial spirit dim. He suffered serious injuries, almost dying here.

If it was Aocheng, Taishi or others here, their bodies and spirits would have definitely been erased. This power was incomparable, completely unimaginable.

For Shi Hao to survive this, it could only be said that he was close to heaven-defying on the path of cultivation!

“Burial kings, goodbye!”

Shi Hao left in a hurry, dragging his ruined body out of Burial Earth, thus disappearing.

The burial kings were all shocked. They didn’t know what happened, only sensing the intense fluctuations there. They all shivered inwardly.

Origin Ancient Artifact was still there, so they weren’t too worried. It was fine as long as this item wasn’t lost.

Only, every single burial king had misgivings, wondering what exactly happened to Huang. He seemed to be running, his entire body covered in traces of blood.

“I hope he is fine!” Burial King Huo Heng said.

Shi Hao left, entering Realm Sea. He chose a place without anyone else and then sat down to treat his wounded body.

However, things were far worse than he imagined. A strand of darkness matter entered his soul, crazily wreaking chaos. His primordial spirit became murky, about to fall into darkness.

This strand of darkness matter was the source!

This was far more serious than when he was corroded in the three thousand provinces.

At the same time, there was a mysterious power that seemed to be crushing down on him, making him continuously cough out blood. His skull and four limbs’ bones were all cracking apart, this scene incredibly terrifying.

Even his soul was like this, splitting apart, possibly being destroyed.

Shi Hao was also decisive, his primordial spirit leaving his body. He avoided that strand of darkness matter, not letting it corrode his soul. At the same time, a wave of his core essence energy also rushed out.

He gave up his flesh shell!

Honglong!

Not far out, that lump of essence blood was reforging an imperishable body, quickly constructing it. His primordial spirit returned inside. At the same time, he ate a nine-colored immortal pill to nurture himself.

This was an unmatched great medicine created from immortal medicines and Three Life Medicine!

This furnace of medicine would make any immortal king’s eyes go red. It was because there was only someone from the Age of Emperor Collapse who refined a batch apart from this batch, the effects of this medicine domineering to the extreme.

Despite this being the case, Shi Hao’s newly formed body was still dripping with blood, enduring a mysterious wave of power. This was especially the case with that darkness source which he just couldn’t completely destroy.

In the distance, Shi Hao’s separated body split up into pieces, a strand of darkness source swirling around there.

“Disappear!”

Shi Hao released a great roar. He attacked the old body that he abandoned, fearing that he would fall into darkness and then produce a new primordial spirit.

Pu!

His fist smashed apart his abandoned body, producing a blast of blood there.

That strand of darkness fluttered about. Shi Hao watched it closely. He displayed great magical force, suppressing it, sealing it up.

This was playing with fire. A single mistake and he would forever fall into darkness, difficult for him to struggle free from that fate.

Then, Shi Hao left, directly returning to Immortal Domain, going into seclusion. He continuously coughed out blood for several decades, trying to recover.

For hundreds of years, he didn’t come out of seclusion, still nurturing his primordial spirit.

In a flash, over ten thousand years passed. Shi Hao still remained in seclusion. The damage he suffered this time was too serious, he needed time to recover.

He tempered his blood again and again, refining away the darkness. At the same time, he was refining the soul out of fear of leaving behind any future grievances. He didn’t want anything unexpected to happen.

During this process, the cave where he was secluded had immortal light that continuously rushed into the heavens, accompanied by blood radiance, triggering terrifying fluctuations.

Whenever an immortal king saw this scene, everyone became shocked. Was Huang injured?

Just what kind of wound was it for him to need ten thousand years to recover, not fully recovered even now?

Shi Hao didn’t have the strength to fight. During this period, Realm Sea experienced great chaos, a large group of powerful creatures returning, moreover slaughtering their way into Immortal Domain.

Darkness Willow Deity and Number Two Under Heaven helped Shi Hao resist them. Even though the cosmos he remained in suffered greatly, it didn’t affect him.

Many areas of Immortal Domain were damaged!

At the same time, the foreign realm was also attacked, its damage serious. However, they had confidence, not all that scared.

It was because there were giants that returned from Realm Sea on their side!

“Huang has been seriously injured! Interesting, let’s see if we can just send him into the afterlife.” There was an undying king in the foreign realm who said this with a cold laugh.

Even though they also had to face the pressure of Realm Sea, they still wanted to slaughter their way into Immortal Domain and eliminate Huang.

They arrived. Now, there were no more obstructions between these two realms. The so-called Imperial Pass had been broken for tens of thousands of years, no one able to reconstruct or rebuild it anymore.

Hong!

The Immortal Smelting Pot appeared. Kun Di personally took action, descending here, provoking heaven reaching fluctuations, startling the kings of Immortal Domain.

“You dare?!” Bird Grandpa and Coin Elder were furious, quickly stopping them. It was because this was Shi Hao’s place of seclusion, they couldn’t let them disturb him.

Hmph!

There was another undying king who rushed over, wishing to unleash a great slaughter here.

If Shi Hao was overseeing this place, how many people dared randomly charge in? Now that they learned something unexpected happened to him, the foreign realm’s undying kings had no choice but to immediately get rid of him.

Hou!

The Heavenly Horned Ant went crazy, entering his clan’s most terrifying berserk transformation state. His eyes became blood red, carrying a sinister blood color. His strength erupted, power endless.

The most important thing was that his primordial spirit’s power also increased greatly, becoming not inferior to an immortal king in any regards!

This was precisely the Vicious Ten, every one of them having a ‘vicious’ side. Once they went crazy, using all of their clan’s power, they could dominate all sides.

He stood in these undying kings’ way, truly wishing to completely tear them all apart.

Darkness Willow Deity took action. With a 

pu

 sound, it pierced through a king’s head. Darkness Willow Deity was a giant, his strength horrifyingly great.

The situation was dire. Shi Hao’s land of seclusion was beaten into ruins. His true body was revealed, currently seated there, black blood flowing out from the corners of his lips. He was refining his own true blood.

“Kill! Huang already cannot take it any longer. He will definitely suffer a disaster today!” Someone shouted.

Shi Hao remained quiet, not moving. During these years, he adjusted his body while deriving the method of emperor ascension, wishing to borrow this tribulation to step on that path.

There were indeed tremendous benefits. He was now trapped on the path of emperor ascension. His primordial spirit continuously deduced various things, releasing brilliant radiance. He couldn’t wake up.

“I found a path! This time, it will definitely succeed!”

The bone crown in Origin Ancient Artifact granted Shi Hao endless sharpening while almost making him die in the process. However, he was also able to see his own path.

After all these years, he was always thinking.

“Emperor ascension, there is a path that can be taken!”

However, the current situation was extremely terrible. It was because a group of enemies were right outside!

Under this type of situation, a single mistake and Shi Hao would suffer a disaster!
