Chapter 1541 - Dusk of a Great Era

The single-legged elder laughed bitterly, saying, “I am merely a servant, do you all believe I am able to know any more?”

He spoke in self-mockery. Even though in the eyes of others, his status wasn’t low, he was still only a servant, not an inheritance of direct descent in the restricted region.

However, he still spoke a few things, his lips opening and closing, only speaking to the supreme beings. However, Shi Hao also heard these things, because he was also in the tattered palace hall.

“Perhaps this will be a quiet dusk. Darkness is about to descend, no one able to free themselves.” The elder’s expressions were grave, saying this incomparably seriously.

These words gave others a great pressure, even the supreme beings’ eyes swirled with radiance, as if there were great stars swirling about. It was hard for them to calm down.

“The blood-soaked dusk is not far, this is a corner of the future my lord has seen. Everyone, please take care of yourselves, do your best.” The single-legged elder said with a sigh.

It was because according to the scene he saw, from the things that master said with sighs, even the restricted areas might be affected, no one able to remain uninvolved.

“How could it be like this? Can we have a more concrete chat?” Jin Taijun was shaken, her old eyes flickering with radiance, the primal chaos surrounding her body especially thick.

“The heavenly sun will be soaked in blood, after falling in the west, it might never rise again.” The elder said. This was the extent of what he knew, some words his master in the restricted region said after some derivations.

What did this foretell? The few supreme beings in the tattered palace all became silent. Scenes of mountains of corpses and seas of blood appeared. They were making speculations, deriving possible results!

This was their understanding. There was no way the heavenly sun would truly disappear, but rather that darkness would descend eternally.

No one said anything for a long time. They were all thinking, silently pondering.

Several light sighs sounded, the sound disappearing into the wind.

Trying to deduce what would happen in the future was too difficult, there were many barriers that couldn’t be moved, things even more difficult to understand than before, meaning that more and more things were involved. The karma was becoming greater and greater!

Then, the unmatched experts joined hands, studying that wooden chest together, hoping for a way to open it. However, they were disappointed, still unable to do anything to it.

“You all should come and take a look too.”

The wooden chest was sent out, landing in the hands of some well-known individuals. They researched it together, passed from hand to hand.

At the same time, outside Imperial Pass’ walls, several figures stood there coldly, looking like matchless demonic sovereigns!

Apart from this, there were a few more figures at the limits of the horizon, all of them standing there like indomitable great demon kings. Their auras were terrifying, none of them uttering a word.

These were foreign supreme beings. They chased after Meng Tianzheng up to here, but they were defeated, unable to make him stay behind.

“What a pity, only a single Meng Tianzheng left the pass.” Someone said regretfully.

It was because they originally separately hid in a few crucial roads, preparing to ambush the other supreme beings from Imperial Pass. However, their hopes all went up in smoke.

If they knew things were going to be like this, if they gathered their forces, they believed that Meng Tianzheng definitely wouldn’t have been able to return alive.

This time, the foreign side prepared to take down several great supreme beings from Imperial Pass, but unfortunately, only a single Meng Tianzheng left the pass.

Meanwhile, the most surprising was that the five great supreme beings who were in charge of killing Meng Tianzheng actually failed, instead losing two great experts.

This made the supreme beings all feel great rage!

“From a certain perspective, this also proves that they lack courage, doing this out of fear!” One of them said, noticing this point from a different perspective.

“Either way, this city will be broken through soon. There is no rush in waiting a bit.” A supreme being nodded.

“Perhaps it isn’t that they lack bravery, but rather Meng Tianzheng had confidence, foreseeing that we would scatter our forces.” Another said.

“Let’s go, this place has already become a dead city, there is no need to waste words, absolutely meaningless. There’ll definitely be troops headed here soon, we’ll just charge right through!” This was what a supreme being said.

Shua!

Almost at the same time, regardless of whether it was in front of the giant city or on the horizon, those terrifying figures all disappeared together, vanishing without a trace.

Inside Imperial Pass, before Ancestral Altar.

The well-known figures of various clans all shook their heads, all those who examined the wooden chest feeling helpless, at their wits’ end, unable to open it or figure out any profound mysteries.

Gradually, discussions sounded, this place becoming a bit noisy.

They all knew that it was a supreme treasure, but if there was no way to obtain its profound mysteries, then what was the use?

“Can it really create an immortal king?” Jin Taijun asked the single-footed elder in the palace hall. She was the one who acted on the most initiative out of all the supreme beings.

“My master previously said that it contains tremendous secrets, perhaps it can create an immortal king.” The elder replied.

It was clear that the so-called tremendous secrets wasn’t only being able to create immortal kings, this result might only be one of the expected results.

In the end, everyone was in despair, no one able to see through this chest.

The rotten wooden chest was returned into the palace, placed before the supreme beings.

An unmatched expert spoke, inquiring from the single-legged elder if the restricted region knew how to open this chest.

“My lord has never obtained it before, only hearing of it during Immortal Ancient times. He had previously searched for it, but never succeeded.” The elder said.

The restricted region’s lord also only heard of some bits and pieces, discovering clues long ago, never seeing it before. He didn’t actually know how to open it.

In reality, the unmatched existences in the restricted region had long foresaw that it wouldn’t be that easy to open up the wooden chest, because this had been mentioned before in those clues.

“Great karma, this is something even the lord of the restricted region fears. Why is this? Are you unable to explain more clearly just what will be provoked?” Jin Taijun wasn’t satisfied.

“I do not know.” This time, the elder’s reply was extremely simple, not willing, and not daring to speak anymore. Even his master had previously been this serious, what right did he have to speak randomly?

“Alright, the wooden chest will be left here for now. You may leave.” Jin Taijun said to Shi Hao, her tone plain, not ordering or informing him.

Shi Hao definitely didn’t feel happy, not hoping for this chest to help Jin Taijun or Immortal Wang. When he was in trouble, these two never left the pass, yet now, they were quite energetic.

Moreover, he was destined to stand against these two families. These two clans truly left him disgusted.

However, before the greater situation, he couldn’t really say much either, still wishing for those of Imperial Pass to be able to unravel this chest’s secrets. He directly got up to leave.

Shi Hao wasn’t all that worried if these two would have great benefits. He believed that this chest definitely wasn’t that easy to decipher, so if there was nothing in the end, it would be returned to him.

“Which clan betrayed us?” When Shi Hao got up, he still carried doubt. Even now, there was no conclusive evidence.

He didn’t know if Great Elder noticed anything, if the unmatched individuals understood this.

When he returned this time, he actually didn’t hear any news of wishing to find traitors. Shi Hao began to wonder if it was going to blow over just like this, or was this to say, Great Elder and the others were moving in the shadows, waiting for a chance to wipe out that clan?

Perhaps it involved just too much, touching upon too many, that things were extremely terrifying.

It was because if it was a long life family, then it might involve a living supreme being!

In the end, Shi Hao gave Jin Taijun and Immortal Wang a look, and then left.

Those two clans were like fire and water with him, normally always bearing hostility against him. If it really was them, then this guess was just too easy to make. Could it be that there were other clans?

“Wait for us to study it a bit more, come back for this chest in two days.” A supreme being transmitted sound. In reality, they still wished to learn more about Shi Hao’s experiences in detail.

However, because they cared too much about this rotten wooden chest, wanting to open it as soon as possible, they only focused on the things related to it, wishing to enter seclusion as fast as possible, preparing to open it together.

The other matters were all pushed back.

While leaving this place Shi Hao became the focal point of attention. A group of people flocked over, surrounding him within. Those old fellas were all enthusiastic to the point of making Shi Hao’s scalp numb, skin produce goosebumps.

“Little friend, do you have a dao companion? I have a granddaughter, a world toppling beauty, lively and intelligent, I think you two are a good match!”

A bald elder grabbed Shi Hao’s arm.

“Little friend, don’t listen to that nonsense, his granddaughter is almost thirty thousand years old, not even the same generation as you.” An elder unmasked.

Shi Hao was stupefied as he listened. Even an old woman could be considered a world toppling beauty, married off to him? Just the thought alone made him shiver inwardly.

“Stop speaking nonsense, that granddaughter of mine has the countenance of a flower, face like the moon, appearance not old at all, at the peak of elegance, no trace of time left on her! You all are merely jealous!” The bald elder shouted.

“Thank you senior for your good intentions!” Shi Hao rejected while wiping at his sweat.

“My clan has a pearl, twenty-eight years of age, a so-called unmatched beauty in her generation, of similar age to you, perfect for you two to talk to each other!” Another elder tried to rope him in.

...

When Shi Hao slaughtered his way back this time, his name shook Imperial Pass. He brought back a supreme treasure, he himself completely unaffected, triggering a huge commotion, all clans trying to find ways of roping him in.

This was especially the case when they knew he reached the Self Severing Realm mid stage at just the age of twenty-five or six, shattering this great era’s record, making them even more enthusiastic.

It was because if nothing unexpected happened, he would become a future leader.

“Shi brat, you are actually playing around here, still not going back? Your family’s doll is already about to get mad!” In the distance, there was a young lady who hollered out like this.

This not only gave Shi Hao a fright, it even left the elder stupefied.

“His family’s doll? Who is going to be the mother of his child?” An elder subconsciously asked, not immediately snapping out of his daze.

The Lunar Jade Rabbit puffed her cheeks, saying, “Heaven Mending Dao’s Yue Chan.”

Pu!

In the distance, Fairy Yue Chan who was currently minding her own business almost spat out a mouthful of blood when she heard this. This really was an undeserved catastrophe!

Of course, Qing Yi was also embarrassed, because she and Yue Chan were one person, two bodies.

“Ah, I was wrong, it might be Sky Severing Dao’s witch.” The Lunar Jade Rabbit invented crazy nonsense, going impromptu mode. Cao Yusheng and the others also helped Shi Hao get out of this predicament.

Otherwise, this group of elders wouldn’t let him go.

Great Xu Tuo, Ten Crown King, Daoist Qi Gu, Lan Xian, Shi Yi and the others all revealed strange expressions, watching in amusement from the distance.

“Oh, let me tell you all a secret! Actually, it’s Wang Family’s Fairy Wang Xi.” When the Lunar Jade Rabbit saw Shi Hao break away, she said like this.

Pu!

This time, it was Shi Hao’s turn to spit out his drink.

As for Wang Xi, she almost coughed out a mouthful of blood, but she swallowed it back down.

This place immediately became noisy, signs of great trouble arising.

“We’re going!” Shi Hao was the first to get out of here.

A group of youngsters followed behind him, rushing into the distance, nowhere to be seen.

“It really is nice to be young, this old one remembers he used to be surrounded by elegant youth, accompanied by beauties from all sides.”

“You old shameless thing, you really have the nerve to say these things? Oh, right, Heaven Mending Dao’s holy lady, Sky Severing Dao’s witch, and Wang Family’s girl, who is the one pregnant?”

“You are the old shameless thing!” The one before retorted.

Yue Chan, witch, and Wang Xi in particular were driven mad. Did this group of old fellas wish for the whole world to be in chaos?!

They glared out angrily, but they all left afterwards.

“Don’t speak randomly, or else Wang Family or Jin Family might get upset with you all! En, perhaps there might even be some jumping out from Heaven Mending Dao’s side!” An elder said.

“If they are going to jump out, then so be it. I am only discussing what I heard. Could it be that not even this is allowed?”

It was clear that the atmosphere in Imperial Pass was overly oppressed, everyone knowing that a great battle might happen soon, that right now, they were just purposely joking around.

Of course, the ones who had the misfortune of being targeted carried the most resentment, because there really were busybodies stirring things up, creating things in the background.

“Where are you headed?” Along the way, the Lunar Jade Rabbit asked Shi Hao.

There was but a large group of youngsters following them, all of them wishing to invite Shi Hao for a drink, to properly discuss his experiences outside the pass.

“I wish to use my accomplishments to absolve Stone Clan of sin, allow them to live like normal people.” Shi Hao said. He believed that the accomplishments this time should be enough to free them of their sin, because just the number of Self Release Realm cultivators he killed alone was terrifying.

This was a spacious land. There was a giant martial arena here. Normally, there would often be people competing here, tempering themselves.

Meanwhile, not far out, in a special palace within Imperial Pass, this was a place where one could receive rewards for outstanding military service!

“Huang?” In the distance, some people saw him. They stood at the edge of the martial arena, eyes cold.

“Just wandered outside a bit, killed some younger generation, yet you were already impatient to report your accomplishments? You really have no composure, too impetuous.” Someone said coldly.

“He is in such a rush to prove himself, believing that just because he has a bit of accomplishments, he can already show off in Imperial Pass” Another person said coldly.

Those people were all in their most robust years, blood energy flourishing, but they were actually all Self Release Realm great cultivators.

“What are you all being so noisy for?” Shi Hao gave them a look, speaking without a trace of politeness.

“What are you saying? You are already in such a hurry just because you killed a few people, you wish to brag about your achievements this time? The young should be humble, your accomplishments will always be yours, why be so impatient to prove yourself” Someone said coldly.

“Cease your sarcastic talk, my accomplishments are enough to blind your dog eyes. If you are from Jin Family, then crawl back there, if you are from Wang Family, then drag yourselves back, don’t try to stir up trouble here!” Shi Hao berated.

“Youngster, what are you talking about? I really want to see just what kind of accomplishments you made, to dare boast so shamelessly!” Someone shouted, bringing over a group of people from the martial arena.
