Everything happened too suddenly. There were always things that exceeded the imagination.
Shi Hao never thought that he would meet that snow-white little Qilin again. Even though he didnât feel like it had been that long since he had last seen it, for this Qilin youth, endless years had already passed.
When he heard the little Qilinâs sobs, the wails of grief, Shi Haoâs heart also moved. He had always been thinking about this matter in the last few months, questioning whether the things he had experienced were real.
He had previously met them, the phoenix girl, young man with Radiant Immortal Gold Sword, the young lady who carried the little Qilin all fell into pools of blood one after another, killed in Southern Sea Purple Bamboo Forest. He had since always felt broken hearted. He watched as those miserable scenes played out one after another, yet was powerless to change anything, his heart full of grief and pain.
Now that he saw this little Qilin, everything was proven true. His experiences back then werenât fake, but real.
Shi Haoâs eyes were sore, his heart in great pain. He truly went on a mental journey back to Immortal Ancientâs last days, becoming friends with those people, yet the ending was so cruel, watching them die one after another.
âI was still waiting, wishing for her to come back, wishing for her...â The little Qilin wept with wuwu sounds, bringing Shi Haoâs thoughts back to Immortal Ancient.
Even though he hadnât interacted with those people for a long time, it was still an unforgettable experience!
âDonât cry anymore, just come with me. The Desolate Border is about to become chaotic, Iâll bring you out to kill the enemy, get revenge for them!â Shi Hao said, staring at the snow-white little Qilin in the void.
He felt a wave of fighting intent that surged like flames. He was going to ascend onto that battlefield! The dream back to Immortal Ancient left him with regrets, a feeling of helplessness. Now, in this era, he was going to fight a glorious battle and slaughter his way into the Desolate Border!
âNo, I want to wait for her, wait for her to appear and come back!â The little Qilin was extremely firm, not willing to display its real body, using that void image to communicate with him.
âI want her to come back too, but she cannot appear again.â Shi Hao said. Even though his voice was calm, that was definitely not the same on the inside.
That great era was full of sadness and grief, all of the young supreme beings withered away. They were all so stunning, no lack of people like phoenix girl and the others who cultivated three strands of immortal energy. If they lived to this world, regardless of whether it was Shi Hao or Ten Crown King, neither of them would be able to hold the highest spots.
That was a glorious era where talents emerged in large numbers, the final days that left one in grief. Those powerful heroes emerged group after group, yet before they could even grow up, they withered away prematurely.
How tragic of an era that was, a period of sadness and tragedy.
âNo, I donât believe it, she will come back, she will appear again to find me in this mountain valley!â The little Qilin cried out, full of emotions, eyes carrying tears, crying painfully.
Even a young beast was like this, let alone a grown-up Shi Hao. He released a long sigh, gazing into the heaven and earth, into the distance.
He was greatly touched by the little Qilinâs loyalty, also feeling powerless for the past. Everything went by just like that, the lamentable and sad Immortal Ancient Great Era gradually faded away just like that.
âYou will grow up, should accept reality a bit earlier.â Shi Hao said. Even though it was cruel, he still wanted to wake up the little Qilin from its dream.
It was because it was a pure-blooded Qilin, and once it grew up, its combat strength would be heaven overflowing, its bravery oppressing the world, a future great force. He couldnât leave it in this type of perplexed state, still muddle-headed.
âEven though Iâm small, I am still clear headed. I believe she will definitely appear.â The little Qilinâs tone was resolute.
Shi Hao was shocked. Even though he didnât believe, he still asked, âWhy?ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âEven you could dream back to Immortal Ancient, why canât she appear in this world?â The little Qilin said softly.
Shi Hao remained silent. The reason he could return was because of Without End great one turning back the flow of time, using that bell of time to guide him on a mental journey.
It was to the extent where Six Dao Reincarnations Immortal King had taken action, and with him using his method, there was definitely immeasurable power in effect.
In that instant, Shi Hao realized something.
Right, he only thought about time, forgetting about Six Dao Reincarnations King. His methods, his dao, if it was developed to the extreme, perhaps it might be able to do something.
âHow did you end up surviving?â Shi Hao asked the little Qilin, wishing to understand how it didnât die first.
âSomeone cut open space and sent me out, buried in a pile of undying matter and then slept for endless years, only waking up again recently. Time cannot take my life!â The snow-white little Qilin said.
This left Shi Hao shocked. Undying matter, this was something many great figures in this world were gathering. If one couldnât become a long life being, then that type of matter could undoubtedly preserve oneâs life, preventing death.
Then, regardless of what Shi Hao said, the little Qilin wasnât willing to get up, only telling him that others couldnât find it because of an Immortal Ancient secret treasure.
It went into hiding, not appearing any longer.
Then, it only left behind one sentence, saying, âI am going to wait for her, wait for her to come back and appear in this world again.â
This left Shi Hao feeling a wave of melancholy, a wave of perplexity. Would that little Qilin really be able to wait until that young lady came back? He felt like it was unrealistic. There was no reincarnation in this world, was it still living in its dreams?
However, Shi Hao still carried hope as well. If that little Qilin really waited until that young lady was alive again, or if there were other creatures from that great era who returned, the significance behind this would definitely be tremendous. Even if the Desolate Border was pierced, it wouldnât be as depressing!
The city was extremely large, Shi Hao came back again.
In reality, the others also returned, going on a wild goose chase again, no one able to find where the little Qilin was, to the extent where even though many people used magical force to move mountains and valleys, digging up the underground rivers, it was all still futile.
That was why everyone believed that the so-called Qilin egg wasnât that close, but rather in an extremely distant place, having a strange treasure that allowed it to protect itself.
In the city, more people appeared. It was because not only did Shi Hao and the witch arrive, there were a few other outside cultivators, every single one of them extremely powerful.
They came from different ancient cities, all of them, after hearing news of a Qilinâs appearance, wishing to capture that young beast.
âIt is rumored to be a little Qilin, returning to an egg due to rebirth. Once it is obtained, that would mean that one would have a great divine beast at oneâs side.â
This was the information these people obtained. They all flocked over as a result.
In the depths of the forbidden region, there werenât many ancient cities, but they were all extremely large, with groups of experts. They set out one after another, this naturally triggering a huge commotion.
Every single city a had glorious past, established by the world shaking experts of the past, all of them unmatched in the higher realms during their era.
However, those people all fell one after another, only the ancient cities and their descendents left.
âYou donât seem to care that much, you arenât interested in that little Qilin anymore?â The witch asked Shi Hao.
âYou should listen to my advice and head out together with me, hurry and reach that emperor city by the Desolate Border. Itâs best if we donât forget the original purpose for coming here.â Shi Hao said, telling her that there is no hope of obtaining that little Qilin.
Of course, he didnât mention the matters of conversing with that little Qilin, because this type of thing was just too shocking. To form friendship with a group of people in Immortal Ancient, regardless of how one looked at it from, it seemed a bit ridiculous. If he told others about it, others would definitely think that he went mad.
âAre you sure that the Qilin youth here cannot be obtained?â The witch asked.
âI am sure.â Shi Hao replied calmly.
The witch looked at him, and surprisingly spoke resolutely, saying, âSince thatâs the case, letâs go then. We should hurry to the Desolate Border and find that city.â
Upon hearing news about a Qilin, not many people could remain calm, especially someone like the witch who had the mysterious bead on her, with such great power to rely on. Yet now, she actually gave up just like that.
Shi Hao have her a look, never expecting her to leave just because he told her to.
âWhat kind of look is that? Could it be that you want me to stay behind?â She shot him a sidelong glance.
âNo, I just never expected you to be so straightforward.â
This time, the two of them went on their way together, leaving the enormous city and proceeding deeper into the forbidden region.
When they traveled several tens of thousands of li out, there were sounds of armored horses galloping, chasing over from behind. The group numbered at least ten, their eyes red like vicious beasts, carrying heaven overflowing killing energy, chasing up to here.
âItâs this type of people again!â Shi Hao had previously killed a group of heavenly deities, all of them in this type of state, eyes crimson red, losing their sense of self.
âIt seems like something is greatly wrong with the forbidden region depths, so many experts infected, all of them daring to attack so openly, itâs clear how domineering they are.â The witch said.
It was clear that these people had shortcuts to take, allowing them to immediately rush at Shi Haoâs group.
Otherwise, with their speeds, there was no way they could compare to Shi Hao, impossible to catch up.
âYou killed squad nineteenâs people?â On the other side, the leader stared coldly at Shi Hao.
âYou all are even sensitive to each other? Can even sense the fact that I killed a team?â Shi Hao asked.
At the same time, this was the same as admitting that he had killed a group of infected experts.
Standing about in this forbidden region depths was extremely dangerous. The mist that spread over from the Desolate Border could confuse oneâs mind, corrupt them.
âMaking us your enemies, there is no place in this forbidden region for you to walk!â That leader shouted. Behind him, more than ten peopleâs weapons shone.
âHow extravagant! A team of heavenly deities, this forbidden region really is unimaginable, the numbers even though not that astonishing, there are too many experts!â The witch sighed in praise.
âI already traveled over ten thousand li, what do you mean no place to walk?â
âFrom my intuition, I can tell that you are strong, but you still arenât a great figure. Without being able to grow up, you will undoubtedly die!â That leader said, the vicious beast he sat on roared, eyes also blood red.
âIs that so? Then you all can feel free to give me a try.â Shi Hao said.
âBeing able to wipe out squad nineteenâs men means that we might not be your opponent, but you still wonât be able to continue living.â That leader said. Then, he chanted an ancient language, as if he was carrying out some type of sacrifice.
âI invite great one to descend!â Someone said.
Right at this moment, a stone mountain not far out cracked apart, revealing a blood-colored altar soaked in blood. It was entirely red, extremely striking.
âIt canât be, right?!â The witchâs expression even changed. Even though she heard that the Desolate Border was unstable, she never thought that it would be terrible to this degree.
âWhat are they trying to do?â Shi Hao asked.
âThese people originally belonged to the three thousand provinces, only being demonized. However now, the blood altar they made really might cause the creatures on the other side of the Desolate Border to descend!â The witchâs expression was serious.
Shi Hao felt a headache. This really was a huge problem.
Those people chanted the incantation, each of them slitting their own wrists, pouring their heavenly deity blood over the altar as an offering.
âWho is calling me? Can my original body cross over?â Right at this moment, a lazy voice sounded from the altar. It was quite young, but also possessed a type of great pressure!
