Perfect World

Unrivaled Power

There were black specks within the golden symbols. This was the Kun Peng Technique. Soon after, vortices appeared on the surface of Shi Hao’s body one after another, devouring essence energy from all directions.

Everyone discovered with shock that this wasn’t only the essence of the sun and moon. Even the four types of rainbow light that descended from the Five Elements Ring were absorbed before entering Shi Hao’s body.

Within those vortexes, it was as if deities were sitting there and cultivating with their legs crossed. One could vaguely see that they were absorbing the essence of heaven and earth.

The Golden Vortex Ripple Technique was an embodiment of the Kun Peng Technique. Now that it was perfect, together with Shi Hao’s spiritual body, it could neutralize all true essence for his own use. Its effects were actually similar to the Five Elements Ring.

“Hey, I’ve underestimated you,” Qin Shoucheng said. The lightning formed from his lightning symbol was completely absorbed. It entered Shi Hao’s body, making his aura quickly rise.

Right now, Shi Hao’s entire body flickered with lightning, and every single golden vortex on the surface of his body released scripture sounds. Those seated figures were like Daoist sovereigns, their demeanor simple and natural.

Qin Shoucheng activated the Five Elements Ring, which turned into a sphere of light and suppressed downward, seriously affecting the stability of this place. It fluctuated intensely as if it was going to collapse.

Shi Hao felt great pressure. If he hadn’t broken through to the Formation Arrangement Realm, he would have most likely died today. Even so, he still felt great pressure.

“My brothers, kill him!” Qin Shoucheng said.

He controlled the Five Elements Ring, turning this place into a world of its own. Hazy mists swirled about, and mysterious natural law pressed down. This was the circulation of the five elements, which was able to refine all things.

With a boom, Shi Hao trembled, and a mouthful of blood flowed out from his mouth. His mind was shaken. The elder’s precious artifact was formidable after all and had inflicted damage on him.

The five-element essence that descended was too concentrated and immediately crushed down like ten thousand waves. Even though the golden vortex on the surface of his body spun frantically, it still couldn’t devour everything.

In fact, the others were even more shocked than him. That was the Five Elements Ring. During the ancient era, it was bathed in the blood of deities, creating an immeasurable killing tribulation that no one could face head-on.

Even though this was an imitation and not the Immortal Mountain’s sect-protecting treasure, Shi Hao’s cultivation realm still couldn’t compare to that of an ancient great power. For him to be able to block it now was enough to prove how astonishing he was.

“There’s actually someone who can contend against the Five Elements Ring! That’s shocking news!”

Everyone knew that after today’s battle, Shi Hao’s name would once again be heard in all regions. The Five Elements Ring was known to be difficult to break, but he could actually stop it.

The Black Cloud Race’s expert took action, activating a black gourd. It surged with dark light, starting to melt Shi Hao.

At the same time, the Flaming Bull Race’s king produced two scarlet swords. They were formed from his horns, and as they charged forward, they carried endless symbol power.

Shi Hao resisted the Five Elements Ring while erupting with sword energy, hacking toward the two kings.

“Kill!”

Qin Shoucheng activated the Five Elements Ring, turning it into a sphere of light, which quickly crushed downward. The mist became even thicker, wishing to completely imprison Shi Hao, preventing him from using precious techniques.

Shi Hao snorted. A Kun fish appeared beneath his feet, surging with black waves and extreme yin energy. Meanwhile, golden light flourished above his head, producing a Peng bird. It spread its wings and struck the great stars, creating great yang essence energy.

Moreover, the Kun fish and the Peng bird formed a close connection. Yin and Yang circulated and erupted with endless terrifying fluctuations, blocking the five elements essence.

“Oh no!” Qin Shoucheng was shocked. He had never imagined that someone could crack the divine might of the Five Elements Ring. That was unimaginable.

Yin and Yang energy circulated, neutralizing the suppression of the five elements essence. Great fluctuations erupted between the two sides. Shi Hao immediately regained his freedom and was able to move again.

Whoosh.

He raised his hand and released a streak of sword energy. That was the unmatched sword intent of the ancient heavenly genius “grass”. It turned into the most powerful attack and slashed out.

With a thump, the Black Cloud Race’s expert’s gourd was immediately cut open. The black light inside exploded, sweeping its owner inside while the man let out a miserable cry.

Shi Hao raised his hand again, and another streak of sword energy flew out. This time, the elder of the Black Cloud Race was split in half, and blood gushed out.

Even Shi Hao himself was shocked. This sword energy was just too powerful. In a battle of the same cultivation realm, it could kill his opponent as easily as crushing dry weeds.

Everyone was shocked and all felt a chill run down their spines.

“How bold!” Qin Shoucheng’s expression was gloomy. He activated the Five Elements Ring, displaying its greatest power as it smashed toward Shi Hao.

Woo…

Rumbling sounds rang out. The Five Elements Ring descended, and Shi Hao was actually unable to dodge. It was because this precious artifact condensed into one with the void, forming a small realm that enveloped him.

Everyone knew that the Five Elements Ring was truly indestructible. In the ancient era, it could destroy gods and devils with a single collision and killed many powerful figures.

Otherwise, how could it be called an unrivaled magical artifact?

No one expected Shi Hao to erupt with power. He struck out, symbols covering his palm and fingers densely. He actually faced the attack head-on.

Bang!

In the end, a trembling sound rang out. He collided with the Five Elements Ring, blasting the precious artifact away.

Everyone was petrified. This was like a legend. They had never heard of anyone daring to resist the Five Elements Ring with their flesh. Shi Hao had succeeded and forcefully withstood the attack.

What kind of astonishing power was that?

At the same time, his sword energy was released again, hacking toward Qin Shoucheng. His aura was terrifying, a vast expanse of whiteness.

Qin Shoucheng was shocked. He knew that Shi Hao was powerful, but he never expected him to be able to resist the Five Elements Ring. Once this great killing weapon was used, it could kill all kings. It wasn’t something that could be defeated by human strength.

He quickly retreated and activated the Five Elements Ring to block the sword energy, erupting with a ray of light.

Whoosh.

Shi Hao raised his hand, and sword energy swept out, hacking toward the Flaming Bull Race’s expert. With a clang, one of his horns was cut off, which shocked the Flaming Bull to the core.

Shi Hao’s strength was vividly displayed. Even the legendary killing weapon, the Five Elements Ring, wouldn’t be able to block his attack.

Moo…

The bull roared. Fiery light overflowed into the heavens, and there were intense symbols interweaving. It was scarlet red and surrounded this entire space.

The Flaming Bull Race’s expert wanted to escape because he knew that even the Five Elements Ring couldn’t kill Shi Hao. With the bull’s cultivation, he definitely wasn’t Shi Hao’s match. If he continued fighting, he would die.

Unfortunately, he was still a step too late. Shi Hao turned into a divine sword, and the sword intent was displayed to the extreme as it hacked down.

Whoosh!

When this divine sword descended, it cut open the fiery red curtain of light, shattering all of the symbols. A head was cut off, and blood gushed out.

Shi Hao rushed over. The divine sword became faint, once again turning into its original form, but its fierce aura didn’t decrease as it charged toward Qin Shoucheng.

With a rumble, the Five Elements Ring shone, erupting with the most powerful force as it smashed toward Shi Hao. It was aiming for mutual destruction.

A screen of light surged. Heavenly passages appeared around Shi Hao, connecting to form a dazzling divine disk. In fact, his flesh heavenly passage also appeared, just that others couldn’t see it.

To be able to force him to this extent showed how extraordinary the Five Elements Ring was. Only when he fought Shi Yi would he use such extreme methods.

“What? The Five Elements Ring has been sealed?” Everyone was shocked and couldn’t believe what they had seen.

The Five Elements Ring was fixed in the void and continuously swayed as it released hazy mist. This was the essence energy of the five elements, but it couldn’t break free from Shi Hao’s flesh heavenly passage power.

Whoosh.

A streak of sword energy swept past, and Qin Shoucheng felt his stomach turn cold. He turned around and fell. After losing the Five Elements Ring, how could he dare to take Shi Hao head-on?

However, this streak of sword energy attacked like lightning and quickly approached Qin Shoucheng. He was forced to bring out his precious artifact, and then he continued to flee.

With a crack, the bone shield was cut open. The sword energy swept forward like a streak of lightning. Qin Shoucheng’s blood turned cold. He did his best to resist, but he still lost an arm with a poof.

All of this happened in the blink of an eye. Shi Hao killed two kings in succession and then cut off one of Immortal Mountain’s elders’ arms. His fighting strength was unmatched.

Boom!

Suddenly, the Five Elements Ring trembled, and a shocking divine will transmitted from within. It was as vast as the sea, and the instant Shi Hao turned to kill Qin Shoucheng, the ring broke free from the restrictions.

“A great figure’s divine will is entrusted to the Five Elements Ring!” An older king was horrified.

Shi Hao’s expression also changed. He operated the Kun Peng technique and activated the connected heavenly passages, preparing to envelop the ring again. He was trying to suppress it with all of his strength.

Unexpectedly, the divine force in the Five Elements Ring didn’t clash with Shi Hao head-on and dodged quickly.

“That’s right. Even though it’s a divine sense of a great figure, it’s still too far from the person himself. It’s not enough to kill Shi Hao. They’re afraid that the Five Elements Ring will fall into Shi Hao’s hands, so the ring is trying to flee,” an expert muttered.

When Qin Shoucheng saw this, he was instead overjoyed because he was surrounded by the light released by the Five Elements Ring. He moved quickly and was about to take away the Immortal Mountain’s people.

However, no matter how fast he was, it was impossible for him to be faster than the Kun Peng technique. Shi Hao turned into a streak of golden light and rushed over, wishing to kill Qin Shoucheng and capture the Five Elements Ring.

There was an indescribable divine will within the Five Elements Ring that caused the ring to rapidly change direction. It wrapped around Qin Chao, and he actually rushed into the ground, sinking into the soil.

“No!” Shi Hao was shocked. The so-called Five Elements Ring naturally included the earth element. This thing could escape through the earth, and it was indeed a rare precious artifact.

He continuously released powerful sword energy and slashed at the ground. A few streams of blood appeared, and the ground was cut open, but the aura of the Five Elements Ring disappeared.

Shi Hao walked over, blasting open the top layer of the ground. He discovered that Qin Chao was cut in half by the sword energy and died. Apart from this, Qin Shoucheng’s leg was also cut off.

He was a bit speechless. He cut off Qin Shoucheng’s arm and leg, yet he didn’t hit Qin Shoucheng’s vitals. What a lucky man.

“You… what do you want?!” Immortal Mountain’s one-armed middle-aged man was greatly shocked because Shi Hao had blocked his path.

Only two people were taken away by the Five Elements Ring. The remaining people from the Immortal Mountain were unable to escape.

Shi Hao locked down the sky, confining them inside. Then, he explored their seas of consciousness, wishing to see what was going on. He wanted to know about his parents.

A moment later, he frowned. He didn’t find any useful clues. The middle-aged man didn’t know as much as Qin Chao, and the others didn’t know anything either.

He stared at a few people with slightly weaker cultivation levels, wishing to start with them and obtain Immortal Mountain’s precious techniques. However, as soon as he touched their seas of consciousness, their original spirit exploded and they died instantly. It was clear that there were terrifying restrictions.

The middle-aged man who lost an arm turned pale. He was a Formation Arrangement Realm king. He never thought that Immortal Mountain’s disciples would have such a fate one day.

Shi Hao gave him a look. He didn’t try to obtain precious techniques because he knew that the man’s sea of consciousness was stronger, and the restrictions would also be more powerful.

Whoosh!

A streak of sword energy swept over, and he cut off the middle-aged man’s head. Blood rushed out from the headless corpse, and then the body fell to the ground.

The entire manor was silent. No one spoke because all of them were stunned. Everything they saw today was too shocking!

The Five Elements Ring was a precious artifact that shocked the people of ancient times and was known to be invincible, but someone dared to resist it with their body today!

The Immortal Mountain looked down on the world and the various regions, but their people were all killed like vegetables. The spellcasters didn’t even frown.

This was astonishing news. Shi Hao was too domineering. After a year and a half, he appeared once again, possessing such invincible spirit!

They were both kings in the same realm. Even with the Five Elements Ring in hand, they couldn’t do anything to Shi Hao. Once Shi Hao appeared, who could compete with him?

“Is there anyone else who wants to challenge me?” Shi Hao glanced at all the experts. His gaze was indifferent, making one’s heart tremble with fear.

Everyone knew that this was a type of unmatched force. Shi Hao had already grown up and was no longer the devilish brat from back then. Every move he made carried dignity. He had truly become a king.

In today’s world, it was difficult for him to find opponents among his peers. He had long been targeting the older generation and even the creatures of ancient legends.

This made many young experts feel powerless. They were of the same generation, yet the difference was so great. It was impossible to catch up to Shi Hao.

Shi Hao looked toward those creatures outside this region. His gaze was as if it was tangible, which was sharp and intimidating. The cultivators of all clans felt a chill run down their spines. Before this, they still wanted to challenge him, but at this moment, their souls were all trembling in fear.

No one dared to say that the wasteland region was incompetent and had no experts. As long as Shi Hao was still alive, he would definitely be able to overlook the world in the future.
