Chapter 813: Chapter 813: Passing the Barrier

A loud roar echoed as the Celestial God retreated, holding his severed arm, with his bright red blood gushing out, staining half of his body red.

His gaze was as sharp as a knife, staring at Shi Hao. Suffering such a severe injury was not only a defeat, but also a humiliation.

All around, a deathly silence prevailed.

People felt as if a torrent had surged through their hearts, unable to calm down; such a young man was rarely seen throughout history, his strength outrageously formidable!

“Ancestors!” A group of people surrounded him, protecting the Celestial God in the center.

Cultivators from several schools were shaken, each of their faces turning pale. Today, they faced humiliation, unable to do anything against this young man.

Over the years, they had watched the world’s vicissitudes from a lofty position, looking down upon all sides. Who would dare to provoke them? Let alone be swept aside by someone.

Today, a young man acted domineeringly, leaving them without the slightest spirit to fight back!

Thud!

The sound of footsteps approached; two figures walked side by side. They were also Celestial Gods, their gazes cold and sharp, looking at Shi Hao, standing shoulder to shoulder with the wounded Celestial God.

Shi Hao laughed heartily, his spirit soaring. Then, he revealed a look of contempt, a kind of flamboyance, as well as arrogance and disdain, not taking them seriously at all.

A group of powerful figures was instantly filled with rage, some with crimson faces and churning blood qi, feeling the shame of a young man looking at them in such a way.

Countless Cultivators witnessing the battle were greatly shaken by this scene.

“Sinful, if he does not die, he will surely reach the pinnacle one day.” Someone sighed softly, referring to Shi Hao as “Sinful” because that is the character he inscribed when he left his mark on the Supreme Ancient Altar.

“With each new generation replacing the old, it is destined that a Supreme will rise. It’s a pity that our disciples and followers don’t know, unable to receive the news. I hope they don’t provoke him after entering Immortal Ancient.”

…

Listening to the discussions and whispers of the people, the faces of the ancient school’s members grew even uglier.

Clearly, everyone believed they had suffered a setback today, destined to be at a major disadvantage, and they were from several ancient schools, no less.

“Descendant of Sinful Blood!” A True God exclaimed loudly, “You are so reckless; are you challenging our ancient schools, seeking a decisive battle to the death in the coming days?”

This was a threat, and also an intimidation, trying to get Shi Hao to back down. After all, those were several flourishing great schools– who in the real world would dare to confront them alone?

“You are right, I will surely pay a visit one by one in the days to come!” Shi Hao replied.

“You do not know the vastness of the heavens and the earth!” the True God rebuked, knowing this approach was futile as the other party would not back down.

“Say that one more time and see what happens?” Shi Hao looked at him indifferently.

The True God was furious. It was a blatant threat. When had a young Venerable ever dared to threaten a True God before? And to stand beside Celestial Gods at that.

“I’m telling you, you do not know…” He glared and rebuked, repeating himself.

However, before he could finish speaking, his vision blurred as countless golden lotuses took root in the void, sweeping towards him with fierce flames, bursting with golden radiance.

“You dare!” many shouted.

Even the three Celestial Gods had cold expressions. This was too audacious; in front of them, he was about to slay a True God who had come close, completely disregarding the three great Celestial Gods.

The three swiftly intervened!

“What wouldn’t I dare? Three pieces of trash, out of my way!” Shi Hao roared. His body glowed intensely, like real flames, dazzling and overwhelmingly mighty.

With such domineering words spoken, he cut down the powerful figures in his path, charging directly towards the three great Celestial Gods.

Everyone was shocked. As for the Celestial Gods themselves, they were fuming with rage. What was this young man saying? To call them trash was unimaginable.

For how many years, since they became Celestial Gods, have the long years passed, as they looked down upon all clans, revered by all sides, who dared to speak to them like this?

Pu!

Blood splattered; Shi Hao soared into the sky, and when his feet fell, he trampled forth astonishing laws of thunder, causing some Venerable Ones to cry out loud, some people were charred on the spot, some even exploded, and blood mist surged.

He moved as if he were in a No-Man’s Land!

This scene deeply shocked everyone, what is invincibility, this youth has displayed such elegance.

Many spectators, notables from various schools, all felt their mouths dry, for many years they had not seen such a valiant young man, they too had been young once, their blood once boiling with fervor, at this moment it seemed as if they were taken back to their youthful days!

The youth, who called the Celestial Gods three pieces of trash, slaughtered the strong as if they were but clay chickens and pottery dogs, shocking everyone near the Supreme Ancient Altar!

“Ah…”

The cultivators of several ancient schools joined hands, blocking his attack, the three Celestial Gods were even more furious, even those severely wounded and missing an arm had a cold and stern gaze, erupting with their strongest divine might, activating their Treasured Artifacts to meet the battle.

“Chh!”

Shi Hao, in mid-air, like a True Dragon tumbling, crossed above many heads, between leg swings, divine light surged violently, smashing straight down. That leg carried more force than a dragon’s tail, causing a group of people to spew blood, screaming as they were sent flying, then burst apart.

This domineering scene stunned each and every person!

“Those who block me shall die!”

From his fingertips, strands after strands of white light flew out, pure and dazzling, tranquil yet containing fierce dominance, ready to erupt with destructive divine might at any moment.

This was the Heaven’s Tribulation Light!

The three Celestial Gods were startled, their Treasured Artifacts were hit, becoming dull and lusterless, all flung outwards, and this kind of light caused their chests to feel stifled, on the verge of coughing blood.

“Boom!”

Shi Hao, like a dragon swooping down, caused a group of strong beings to cough blood, with some dying and others severely injured, tumbling away to the sides.

Even the three Celestial Gods were beaten back, unable to block him.

“You…” The True God who spoke earlier, now had a pale face.

“Pu!”

Shi Hao pressed down with a palm, white light rushing forth, covering the area, this person was directly evaporated, turning into a blood mist, into dust, into a rain of light.

In the midst of a thousand troops, slaying the enemy, none could block him!

With a hum, Shi Hao spun upwards, a foot stepping towards the face of a Celestial God, a palm striking towards the head of another Celestial God, striking out forcefully.

His real target, naturally, was the three Celestial Gods.

One of them bellowed, activating a painting scroll, which was a secret artifact; once sacrificed, it would disintegrate and cease to exist, but its power was boundless.

He pinned his hopes, that this object might momentarily break through the suppression of the Spirit Realm and could annihilate Shi Hao.

Shi Hao sensed the abnormality, but was not worried. With a loud shout, his body emitted sacred light, vast and white, and in the palm of his hand emerged a brand emitting blinding light.

In the end, a vague hand broke free from his body, manifesting in the void. Regrettably, it was not very authentic, a bit hazy and dim, not entirely complete.

Even so, it emitted a terrifying might because this was–the Hand of the Heavens.

“Bang!”

The painting scroll was punctured, never having the chance to ignite, it was scattered by the slap, its energy could not spread over.

“Ah…”

The Celestial God bore the brunt of the attack, half of his body pierced through, sustaining heavy injuries, blood splattering on the spot.

“Shick!”

Shi Hao sacrificed a Soul Shattering Needle, shooting it towards his body, intending to deliver a killing blow.

Pfft!

Indeed, it hit its target, causing the Celestial God’s expression to drastically change.

With a clang, his palm turned into a blade, decisively severing his own shoulder, and then he swiftly fled into the distance.

The Celestial God retreated!

This caused a huge commotion, other powerhouses who saw this all turned pale, and then their confidence crumbled, escaping in all directions.

“Kill!”

Shi Hao bellowed, pursuing those individuals, striking one after another.

“Dang…”

Unfortunately, bell sounds came from the direction of the Supreme Ancient Altar, marking the end of the assessment, hundreds of thousands of Venerables were cleared from the scene, and everything here came to an end.

Shi Hao felt regret, as he felt a powerful force tugging at his body, pulling him away from the battlefield.

In his final strike, he attacked a Celestial God, an incomplete Hand of the Heavens burst forth, causing that person’s expression to change dramatically, and even while retreating swiftly, he was smacked to the point of coughing up blood profusely, parts of his body in tatters.

Most terrifyingly, there was still a Soul Shattering Needle hidden within Shi Hao’s palm strike.

“Pfft!”

This time, the needle was aimed at the head, accurately penetrating it, causing the Celestial God to scream miserably, a ghastly light revealed in his eyes, horrified.

“What, a Celestial God has been struck by the Soul Shattering Needle!”

“Heavens, is a Celestial God about to fall?”

…

This caused an uproar, all three Celestial Gods sustained heavy injuries, blood staining the Spirit Realm, one of them might even die!

All the spectators were in shock, their hearts trembling.

“Shick!”

Shi Hao vanished from there, together with a group of Venerables from the Supreme Ancient Altar, leaving the Spirit Realm.

Sin State, within a vast heavenly passage gate.

Radiant light flickered, one figure after another was swept out, reducing the number of over seven hundred thousand Venerables to only ten thousand remaining–these were the final victors!

Those who left the heavenly passage gate, carrying resentment and disappointment, merged into the crowds, utterly dejected.

Of course, amidst these emotions, there was also an indescribable luster as they all stared at the heavenly passage gate, seeking the figure of a young man.

Everyone knew that something big had happened!

Sin, not only breaking records and obtaining the Supreme Elixir from the highest place of the nine-level altar’s Stone Bowl, but he also slew the heirs of several heavenly passage gates, as well as their Divine Spirits.

The next moment, the spectating crowd also returned, innumerable Cultivators revived, and suddenly there was chaos here.

“The Celestial God struck by the Soul Shattering Needle, was he from Fire Cloud Cave or the Demon Dragon Dao Gate?”

“This is shocking, an assessment and a Celestial God is about to die?”

The noise of the crowd was tumultuous, the place was in chaos, all Cultivators regained consciousness, not looking at the winning ten thousand Venerables first but searching for that Celestial God.

It was a tremendous upheaval!

For so many years, this had never happened. An assessment in the Spirit Realm had turned into a fierce battle with a Celestial God, and they might have succeeded in killing one.

Finally, people found those famous ancient schools, a group of people already unable to remain calm, amidst various shouting voices.

Because, a part of them lay on the ground, unable to rise.

Shi Hao didn’t only extinguish the life of a True God with the Soul Shattering Needle!

“Heavens, patriarch, wake up!” someone cried out in grief.

Moreover, a Celestial God from the Demon Dragon Dao Gate lay on the ground, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, his face pale, silent, life and death unknown.

Besides, the other two Celestial Gods were also trembling, for they had sustained heavy injuries in the Spirit Realm, and upon returning, their Primal Qi was greatly damaged.

“Catch him, do not let him leave!” someone shouted fiercely, watching over the heavenly passage gate.

“That youth, he cannot enter Immortal Ancient, we won’t allow him to leave!” the Celestial God from Fire Cloud Cave personally spoke, abruptly standing up, coming to the edge of the heavenly passage gate.

The place was in uproar, already boiling with excitement.

Many knew what had occurred in the Spirit Realm, several ancient schools were now leveraging their influence to prevent the Descendant of Sinful Blood from leaving, seeking to capture and kill him right there.

Everyone turned their gaze towards the heavenly passage gate, finally locating the young man.

“Hahaha…” Shi Hao laughed heartily, standing up tall, startling the nearby Venerables into retreating, not daring to approach.

He was unrestrained, looking towards the outside, glaring at the people from the several ancient schools, and said, “How domineering indeed, to even dare break such rules, but can you enter here at all?”

“Open for me!” A Celestial God made a move, attempting to enter the heavenly passage gate, but unfortunately was blocked by sacred light, unable to come close.

This formation was very old, astonishingly strong, specifically designed to ensure fairness and prevent outsiders from rushing in.

Even though the schools were powerful, they had not anticipated such an event. Now trying to break the formation on short notice was simply impossible, it would take a great deal of time.

“Who exactly are you?” a Celestial God demanded.

“Who am I?” Shi Hao looked around but ultimately did not answer, and with a light, disdainful sneer, he said, “After entering Immortal Ancient, you’ll come to know!”

The two Celestial Gods clenched their fists, they knew that this young man most likely came from an extraordinary origin, possessing not just a single identity.

“Heavens, patriarch, please wake up!” someone cried out in grief, shaking the Celestial God who was struck by the Soul Shattering Needle.

This was not an artifact of the Realm of Virtual Gods, but something Shi Hao obtained when trapped in a deathly array from the higher realms, a tyrannical and malevolent forbidden artifact.

“Our school also has Primordial figures, as well as ancient freaks, destined to slay you within Immortal Ancient!”

A Divine Spirit roared furiously, filled with boundless murderous intent and resentment.

“Is that so?” Shi Hao heard this and coldly laughed, nodding his head, and said, “Thanks for the information, when the time comes, I will certainly go and make a clean sweep, but rest assured!”

“You…” The people from the ancient schools were furious, their foreheads throbbing with bulging veins, yet they were helpless to enter.

“Dang…”

The sound of a bell, the array started to turn, the entire heavenly passage gate blurred, and everyone knew that the transmission had begun, these ten thousand Venerables were about to be sent into the vast No-Man’s Land.
