Chapter 1805 - Bottleneck

“Master, I’ve returned again.” In the horizon, a crimson dragon turned into a streak of scarlet multicolored light, jumping around, full of joy, as if he was purposely mocking Shi Hao, returning like a streak of lightning. Moreover, when he saw Yun Xi at the front of the village, he laughed in an evil manner, calling her martial mom.

Peng!

As a result, he flew out again, this time, when he was kicked by Shi Hao, the foot quickly enlarged, becoming like a mountain, kicking him to who knew where. Either way, he immediately went unconscious, no sign of him to be found for several days.

Yun Xi’s complexion was fine like jade. However, she was rather calm. Ever since this girl followed him into the lower realms, after saying she would take care of Shi Hao, her mind had been peaceful, having a type of aloof and otherworldly temperament, as if an exiled immortal landed in the realm of mortals.

Shi Hao definitely couldn’t refuse Yun Xi before her face. Even though she had just returned after picking medicines from the great wilderness, not hearing those words, this was a smart girl, able to guess at the truth just from some clues.

In reality, when she saw Qin Yining’s gentle gaze, as well as recalled the recent pampering and care, Yun Xi long noticed what was going on.

“Tell me right now, who exactly are you going to choose?!” Qin Yining secretly asked.

Shi Hao was stunned. This wasn’t a matter of who he was choosing, but rather that there was a pit in his heart that he couldn’t crawl out of.

It hadn’t been long since the Desolate Border Great Battle had ended, less than half a year. Great Elder Meng Tianzheng died in battle, even more so, Huo Ling’er was captured along with all of Sin Province, falling into the other side, unknown if she was still alive.

“I know that you have many thoughts weighing down on your mind, unable to immediately let those things go, but those people have died, forever unable to return. We have to look forward.” Qin Yining advised.

In Qin Yining’s opinion, Huo Ling’er couldn’t return, or it could even be said that she was already dead. Was Anlan someone of the good sort? Would he leave behind living mouths after seizing Sin Province?

Moreover, even if there was really a miracle, even if Huo Ling’er was alive, not dead, what use was that?

Now, the two worlds were isolated from each other, a heavenly moat between the two that was impossible to cross. Desolate Border’s great battles had ended, the two sides completely disconnected.

If the two sides wanted to meet again, then it would be a long, long time, perhaps a great era.

Alive was fine, if she was dead, then she was dead. Either way, they didn’t have any karma to meet again in this life. Qin Yining also felt regret, worried that Shi Hao couldn’t let go of these things, which was why she wanted him to get married as soon as possible, forget about the unhappiness, cut away the bitterness.

“Give me a bit more time.” Shi Hao left, not returning, heading into the primal chaos to cultivate.

“Huo Ling’er is a good girl, but you two already no longer share any karma.” Qin Yining sighed from the back.

She was pulled back by Shi Ziling. Nobody understood one’s son better than the father, Shi Ziling knew that his son wouldn’t forget about what happened, no matter what they said. Perhaps he was even using this type of regret to motivate himself.

In the following few years, Shi Hao always cultivated bitterly, his dao skills advancing steadily, continuously growing, fast to the point of leaving one horrified.

One had to understand that at his age, reaching the peak of Self Release Realm was completely unheard of since ancient times. Another step forward and he would be touching upon supreme being territory.

The creatures of darkness’ evolution speed had to be ignored, because that type of strength upgrade was abnormal, not obtained through one’s own cultivation.

Shi Hao truly cultivated his own skills, his fighting prowess astonishing. After many years of time, he continuously broke through, always advancing, his strength becoming greater and greater.

That day, a great noise sounded in the primal chaos. He fully consolidated his cultivation at the Self Release Realm, already reaching a consummate level, at the absolute peak of this realm!

This type of accomplishment, if news of it got out, it would shake up the higher realm. None of them would expect someone in the lower realms to be on the verge of reaching Supreme Being Realm at such a young age!

It could be said that it was never seen before in the Nine Heavens Ten Earths.

It was extremely astonishing, world-shaking.

In the following year, he tried to break through, to reach the peak domain of Mortal Dao.

“I am only a bit off, why can’t I enter this level?” Shi Hao frowned. He wanted to rush into the Supreme Being Realm, but he failed. He couldn’t continue forward from the consummate level of self release.

He returned, heading back to Stone Village, and then went to temper himself in the Void God Realm, facing those sealed creatures again. Unfortunately, the effects weren’t that noticeable, still unable to break through.

During this time, Qin Yining raised the same topic again, hoping for him to leave behind an heir, to not have any regrets.

Stone Village’s people were all extremely hopeful as well. Shi Hao’s talents were something anyone could see, so they all hoped for him to get married and leave behind an heir, leave behind some bloodlines in Stone Village.

Shi Hao smiled, muddling his way through again. It seemed like his path in the lower realms had reached its limit. Now that several years had passed, he wanted to enter the three thousand provinces again, see what was going on with the darkness calamity.

At the same time, he wanted to search for some opportunities, see if he could break through in the higher realm.

When Shi Hao entered the three thousand provinces again, he was extremely shocked. The battlefield was cruel, Immortal Domain’s troops suffering considerably, while the darkness territory had enlarged many times!

It wasn’t just the three thousand provinces where darkness ran rampant, occupying one to two thousand provinces of land.

Apart from this, the ‘back calamity’ appeared in the other parts of the Nine Heavens Ten Earths one after another!

Now, this was no longer limited purely to the three thousand provinces, the other ancient continents were also like this, already producing dark matter. A terrifying disaster descended.

Immortal Domain had no choice but to send out more troops!

During this period, slaughter happened continuously, the cultivators of all sides suffering disastrous losses. During the past few years, bloodiness accumulated,the corpses were countless, all of it caused by slaughter.

Shi Hao was truly horrified as he took everything in. He heard that there were even true immortals who died in battle!

This type of stalemate confrontation was extremely terrifying and intense, both sides slaughtering each other viciously. Terrifying primordial darkness creatures appeared, iron-blooded and ruthless, killing intent overflowing into the heavens.

Shi Hao didn’t join in on this, only taking action from time to time along the way to size up these darkness creatures. He didn’t want to unleash slaughter now.

Right now, it was still his period of hibernation. With his cultivation, he couldn’t change anything even if he joined. Only when he was strong enough, when a single blade could hack open the dark battlefield, only then would it be meaningful.

Along the way, Shi Hao still tried to break through, searching for opportunities. He wanted to enter the Supreme Being Realm!

Unfortunately, things didn’t go smoothly at all, he couldn’t succeed, still stuck at the peak of Self Release Realm.

Shi Hao was rather disappointed. He just couldn’t figure out why he couldn’t break through this barrier.

If others knew he was thinking this, they would definitely become stupefied and curse him out. He really was too greedy! From the distant past until now, there weren’t any supreme beings under five hundred years of age.

Meanwhile, just how old was he right now?

His cultivation period was too lacking!

Even the most stunning individuals in ancient times, the ones who cultivated the fastest, continuously broke records, had to use several centuries of time, and this was a miraculous feat.

Meanwhile, right now, Shi Hao, in the eyes of predecessors, was too tender, unrealistically young, yet his cultivation was already world shocking.

“No, this won’t do, I want to break through!”

In the end, Shi Hao headed out again, returning to the lower realms, bitterly cultivating again. In the blink of an eye, another few years passed.

Shi Hao now cultivated for ten years in total in the lower realms. He was at the consummate level of Self Release Realm, couldn’t advance any further, reaching the absolute limit. He had previously guided down lightning tribulation many times, trying to assist with his own breakthrough, but it was still useless.

The Supreme Being Realm couldn’t be touched!

It was to the extent where, because he forcefully tried to break through, there were two times where he almost died. Once, he triggered a great collapse in the primal chaos, his flesh rotting, the other time in the starry sky, his body was badly mangled, breaking apart inch by inch, making many stars fade out of existence eternally.

Shi Hao reached a bottleneck phase. He knew that his path really wasn’t easy to continue. If he wanted to become the youngest supreme being, it seemed impossible.

However, he couldn’t accept this. He didn’t want to advance only after a few centuries!

He just wanted to break the record, create a miracle!
