Perfect World - Chapter 399

Extraterritorial Creatures

The Fire Clan’s Guardian Spirit Divine Tree had taken root here. There was a pair of Vermillion Bird wings at its roots that turned into a gate. Inside was an ancient Holy Emperor’s golden coffin that blocked a cave entrance.

How could this scene not be shocking? Shi Hao broke out in cold sweat, feeling like he had unintentionally discovered a great secret.

“Fire Nation is quite extraordinary. Rumor has it that several unmatched great sects have sent their disciples into Fire Nation’s ancestral land as if they were searching for something.”

“Could it be the secret to becoming a true deity? Even if there is, it most likely isn’t in that ancestral land.”

A few young experts from outside this region were discussing among themselves, not scared of being overheard.

Shi Hao was intrigued. Were these people reliable?

A few others entered the jade pavilion and sat down. They also began to discuss similar topics, but the things they said were completely different.

“In my opinion, those great sects are looking for the source of the great calamity. Perhaps it originated from Fire Nation.”

These words left everyone confused. Even now, not many people could explain the true meaning of the great calamity or why it would happen.

Shi Hao took a deep breath, making his final attempt. He wanted to see through the golden coffin and find out what was inside the cave.

He activated all of his strength. That deity’s eyes shone, and then it turned into Dao patterns, merging with him and immediately piercing through the void.

Not only did the deity’s eyes tremble, but Shi Hao’s own eyes were also in pain and bleeding. He operated his divine force to the limit, really wishing to see the truth inside the cave.

Finally, he vaguely saw that behind the golden coffin, that ancient cave was deep and immeasurable as if it was connected to an ancient world.

The mist was hazy, and he seemed to see corpses all over the ground. There were many damaged weapons as if this was a boundless ancient battlefield. It was incomparably dark.

However, in the blink of an eye, those things disappeared. Pure and holy radiance surged, and Shi Hao felt as if he saw that gate of light beside the Kun Peng nest, which was swirling with mysterious power.

“Hey, Princess Qianqian is here. She’s one of the Mysterious Region’s ten beauties. Her reputation is quite great among the younger generation,” someone said softly, eyes burning with passion.

Shi Hao had already finished exploring the mysteries. He looked outside and saw that woman. It was precisely the beautiful foreign creature he saw when he first entered the Fire Nation Capital.

She was clearly not a human, and there was a rhombus imprint between her brows. Apart from this, there was a pair of jade horns on her head that looked like dragon horns. They were extremely short, and they flowed with radiance between her hair, giving her a strange type of beauty.

Apart from this, she wasn’t much different from a human. She was tall, slender, and gentle-looking. However, from time to time, her eyes would release sharp radiance.

“The Mysterious Region?” A streak of light flashed through Shi Hao’s eyes. He knew that his parents went to the Mysterious Region. In the end, his grandfather also followed them.

He really wanted to know about that region’s situation, but very few creatures came from there.

There were a few people around Princess Qianqian, all of them extremely strong and clearly well-known figures in that region. They chose a table and gathered together.

“Princess Qianqian, I heard that your genius cousin has achieved success in his studies and returned from the Western Sect. Is he not here in the wasteland region? With what he’s like, after hearing about the battle between the two Shi brothers, he should have come.”

Quite a few people shivered inwardly. Even though that madman was a disciple of the Western Sect, he didn’t seem like someone from that sect at all. Every time he left the mountain, he would challenge everyone. He was full of anger, and it wasn’t too far off to say that he would attack whoever he saw. He was an extremely terrifying figure.

It was rumored that he had achieved the Unbreakable Vajra Body and walked the path of sanctifying his body. His might shook the Mysterious Region, and he had always defeated his enemies. He had never suffered a single defeat.

Western Sect, also known as Western Paradise Sect, was as powerful as the Heaven Mending Sect, Sky Severing Sect, and a few others. They were known as undying inheritances that spanned several regions. The Vajra Unbreakable Body was one of their sect’s most powerful divine techniques. Those who could obtain such an inheritance were all formidable.

“I believe he should be here,” Qianqian said. Her beautiful hair hung loose on her shoulders, and her eyebrows were extremely faint. When she beamed, it was as if flowers were blooming.

When many people heard this, their hearts skipped a beat. It was clear that everyone in the Mysterious Region knew how powerful that lunatic was, and he was the last person they wanted to encounter.

The Mysterious Region was an absolutely extraordinary region. Not only was its territory vast, but it was also a place where outstanding talents emerged in large numbers. The Western Paradise Sect’s foundation was in that region.

“He’s just a lunatic. He can only act viciously in the Mysterious Region,” someone said. His voice was extremely cold, immediately making this place much quieter.

That person clearly didn’t care about that lunatic at all. He had to have extraordinary power. Everyone looked toward a jade table, and there was a person sitting there.

His appearance was ordinary without any special temperament. He looked like a human, but he definitely wasn’t. It was because he had a pair of pure white wings on his back, and a ring of light curled around his head.

“A Feather Race expert with emperor blood!” Someone sucked in a cold breath of air. This was an extremely rare figure among the Feather Race and had exceeded the king’s bloodline. If he grew up, he might become the clan lord.

What region did he come from? Many people were speculating because the Feather Clan was a large clan. They were spread throughout the great regions, and if they truly joined hands, their strength would be terrifying.

The people of the Mysterious Region looked over and stared at him. The people beside Princess Qianqian all had unfriendly expressions, and the atmosphere was a bit tense.

Bang!

Right at this time, the palace gates were forcefully kicked open. A few creatures entered, their faces dark as if they weren’t happy.

“Hey, these are Flood Region’s creatures. From the looks of it, they have gone to the Fire Emperor Palace to pay that princess a visit, but they were rejected again,” someone said quietly because such a situation had happened more than once.

Recently, Huo Ling’er was extremely annoyed. People kept trying to find Shi Hao through her, and in the end, she had no choice but to shut herself in.

“What’s so great about her? Isn’t she just a human princess? She really is putting on airs. The wasteland region is going to be finished. Let’s see how much longer she can remain arrogant!”

These creatures’ expressions were gloomy, and they were extremely resentful. They weren’t humans, yet they turned into human forms. When they were angry, waves of black energy would appear on their faces.

“The wasteland region is finished. In the future, the Fire Nation will no longer exist, and the so-called princess will only be a stalk of grass!”

They were extremely angry, and their voices were cold. Waves of killing intent seeped out.

Someone recognized that they were Flood Region’s Black Cloud Race’s experts. It was rumored that they were formed from the demonic earth’s black clouds and had been cultivated into human forms. All of them were extremely strange and powerful!

When the Flood Region was mentioned, everyone would think of that Black Cloud Demonic Earth. An unmatched expert was born there, and he had invaded the Mysterious Region and fought a great battle against Western Paradise Sect’s old sect master.

Throughout history, not many people dared to challenge the Western Sect. Only that monkey, as well as the Black Cloud Race’s supreme being and a few others from endless years ago were bold enough to slaughter their way into the Western Paradise Sect.

“Do you want to challenge Shi Hao?” Someone asked, staring at the experts of the Black Cloud Race.

“Hmph!” An expert from the Black Cloud Race snorted and said, “We don’t want to, but someone from my clan wants to see him.”

Everyone was surprised. They had long heard that the Black Cloud Race was becoming more and more powerful and had produced several formidable geniuses in recent years. Those were probably the ones who wanted to meet Shi Hao.

“These creatures from outside this region are too domineering. They’ve disrespected the wasteland region,” someone said quietly. There were quite a few human experts here.

“In the wasteland region, only a few Archaic Divine Mountains have remained mysterious. However, in this great calamity, the mountain gate will most likely be closed. As for the humans here, they are so weak,” said a creature from the Mysterious Region while shaking his head.

Quite a few people agreed. Among them were quite a few humans from outside this region.

“If the human race here had figures like Fairy Yue Chan or the witch, they wouldn’t be looked down on. Right now, there’s only Shi Hao, yet it is unknown whether he is dead or alive. Is it possible that he really was crippled in the decisive battle? Will he ever appear in this world again?”

“Be it Shi Yi or Shi Hao, if they are alive, either one can crush all of you with a single finger!”

Someone said in a low voice. His voice seemed to be moving around, making it difficult for others to identify the speaker.

Shi Hao was speechless. He didn’t want to brag like that. When he concentrated, wishing to investigate, the voice already stopped.

“How arrogant! How dare you show off in front of us. If you have the skill, then come out and fight!” A young expert from outside this region immediately stood up.

Shi Hao happened to walk out of the private room. He wasn’t responding to the challenge but rather wanted to ask Princess Qianqian about the Mysterious Region’s situation to see if he could find out some information about his parents.

However, in this creature’s eyes, Shi Hao’s action was a provocation because as soon as he finished speaking, Shi Hao stood up and walked over as if he was taking the challenge.

“Fine, you have some guts to stand out to me. Do you want to fight a decisive battle against me?” The creature’s killing intent surged, and his face was sinister.

“Your spiritual senses aren’t that great. I didn’t say those things. You’re after the wrong person,” Shi Hao glanced at him and explained.

Everyone was speechless. This human brat seemed to be careless, but what he said also showed contempt because he was making fun of this foreign expert’s five senses.

“You… How arrogant!” This foreign creature had a pair of fiery red bull horns on his head. Even though he took the human form, he still had this distinct racial characteristic. It was clear that he belonged to the Flaming Bull bloodline. Even his temperament matched that bloodline, making him extremely irritable.

Shi Hao naturally couldn’t be bothered with him. He walked toward Princess Qianqian with large steps.

“Stop right there!” The Flaming Bull Race’s young expert’s face darkened, and he tried to grab toward Shi Hao’s shoulder.

“Are you looking for a beating?!” On Shi Hao’s shoulder, the big red bird that was dozing off opened its eyes. Right now, its entire body was pitch-black like a crow. When it saw that palm, it angrily widened its eyes.

With a boom, a pair of enormous wings stretched out, and with two cracking sounds, the big red bird slapped the expert of the Flaming Bull Clan.

Everyone became stupefied. That was just a crow, but it was so domineering. It slapped the foreign creatures twice in the face!

“Don’t provoke me, or else I’ll beat you to death!” The big red bird spoke arrogantly, and its heart was pounding. It never thought that Second Baldy would teach it such special skills. It was so precise, and every strike was accurate. The other party couldn’t avoid it.

“You’re dead!” The Flaming Bull Race’s expert wanted to step forward. He was trembling with rage.

Smack!

The big red bird was extremely straightforward. With a swing of its wings, it sent the Flaming Bull Clan’s expert flying out of the palace hall. The slap was especially loud and clear.

“I didn’t know that Second Baldy was that powerful! Before leaving, he only taught me a few moves. If I had known earlier, I would have let him teach me everything he knew!” The big red bird was full of regret. This was the “little divine ability” Second Baldy taught it before leaving Stone Village.

The creatures outside this region were extremely shocked. Who was this person? Even the bird he raised was this powerful. Just how powerful was he himself?

“Don’t provoke me, or else I’ll beat you all to death!” The big red bird cast a sidelong glance at all of the cultivators.

The group of creatures were petrified. Just now, they were still looking down on the wasteland region’s humans, yet in the end, this teenager showed up. The bird he raised was already so arrogant and powerful, making many creatures frustrated!
