However, Shi Hongfeng immediately regained his confidence.

Just now, it was only the Sword Qi that struck Shi Hao, not the Immortal Artifact itself, which were entirely different concepts.

However, to directly strike an opponent with an Immortal Sword requires close combat. At their level, how could they allow anyone to approach so easily?

Getting close meant that if one side were to lose, it would be difficult to widen the distance, possibly resulting in a fight to the death!

Therefore, Immortals always maintain distance in battles, so if something goes wrong, they can flee, otherwise killing an Immortal would not be difficult at all.

Would Shi Hao be that foolish?

Let’s try it first.

He shouted and lunged at Shi Hao with his sword.

Huh, why isn’t this guy dodging?

Shi Hongfeng was stunned, which he never expected, but since the rare opportunity of close combat had arrived, why hold back?

He wielded his sword and thrust toward Shi Hao.

Of course, he didn’t want to bear the crime of killing the son of an Immortal King, so he aimed at Shi Hao’s right shoulder.

In the end, Shi Hao raised his hand and gently pinched, with the sword caught in his grasp.

Shi Hongfeng was appalled, trying with all his strength to pull away, yet the sword would not budge, as if it had taken root in Shi Hao’s hand.

How is this possible?

What kind of monster are you, how can your strength be so formidable? Also, is your physique really at the Immortal Gold level, to withstand an Immortal Artifact?

This time it was truly a direct confrontation. Although he was twisting the Immortal Artifact, it was in vain against Shi Hao’s body.

Shi Hao smiled slightly: "Apologize or not?" 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

Throughout the process, he remained calm, even smiling serenely.

Shi Hongfeng pondered for a long time, having no choice but to bow his head, saying to Niu Xiuping and others, "I was reckless earlier, I apologize to all of you. Moreover, I have some Immortal Elixirs here, as compensation."

Although his attitude was not humble, the heir of an Immortal King doing this much was already commendable.

Niu Xiuping and the others were not pretentious; they knew that this was due to Shi Hao’s efforts, not their own strength. To have Shi Hongfeng sincerely apologize, they needed to work harder to become stronger themselves.

Shi Hao did not press further, nodded, and turned away.

In terms of the Rejuvenation Technique, he already had a deep understanding, but further advancement required long contemplation.

Shi Hongfeng thought over it, immediately ran up to him, and said, "Brother Shi, have you obtained the Immortal King’s Precious Technique?"

He was indeed thick-skinned, quickly acting as if nothing had happened.

Shi Hao smiled: "Yes, I obtained the Rejuvenation Technique, but as for the Grass Character Sword Spell, I still have no clue."

Shi Hongfeng’s eyes lit up, he still had a chance.

He knew that the Precious Technique of Immortal King Qingye was rare, and previous failures had shown this, but Shi Hao obtained the Rejuvenation Technique. What did this mean?

Immortal King Qingye wasn’t joking with the world; he truly hid the Precious Technique here, only the acquisition process should be extremely challenging, hence no one succeeded for so long.

Shi Hao obtaining the Rejuvenation Technique meant... he also had a chance at the Grass Character Sword Spell.

In fact, he preferred the Grass Character Sword Spell, focused more on attack, unlike the Rejuvenation Technique, which leaned towards defense.

So, if he could only choose one, he would definitely choose the Grass Character Sword Spell, let alone not having a choice now.

Shi Hongfeng was instantly invigorated. If Shi Hao, the son of an Immortal King, could obtain the Rejuvenation Technique, why couldn’t he, an heir of an Immortal King?

The gap in bloodline shouldn’t be that exaggerated.

He immediately set out to search, and how to devise a plan was his own business.

Shi Hao returned to his quarters, commencing a not-so-short period of secluded cultivation.

One, to digest the resources obtained from Qu Ping; two, to further master the Rejuvenation Technique.

Time quietly passed, Shi Hao diligently consumed Immortal Elixirs, refining them like a Stone Mill, and contemplated the Rejuvenation Technique, living a peaceful yet fulfilling life.

In a flash, two months passed, and Shi Hao reached the Peak of Ten Stars while achieving profound mastery in the Rejuvenation Technique.

This was entirely different from the Nine Deaths Heavenly Art.

The Nine Deaths Heavenly Art was about enhancing the body’s strength, whereas the Rejuvenation Technique was restorative, enabling rapid recovery from significant injuries, or at least controlling the harm.

Such impressive prowess was naturally due to Immortal King Qingye’s true form as a blade of grass. Plants have tenacious life forces, and Immortal King Qingye further endured through a tribulation, with amazing resilience of life force.

Therefore, if Shi Hao had to choose one, he would certainly choose the Rejuvenation Technique rather than the Grass Character Sword Spell.

Indeed, though the Grass Character Sword Spell possessed ultimate power, turning a blade of grass into one of the strongest Immortal Kings, Shi Hao walked his own path. In terms of attack, any Ultimate Move was merely reference material for him.

You see, even the Nine Character Battle Method created by Immortal Venerable was cast aside by him.

After accumulating for a while, Shi Hao began to break through to Eleven Stars.

Compared to breaking through Ten Stars, this actually proved easier.

Though exhausting the limits posed increasing difficulty each step, Shi Hao defied that; opening the gates to the realm of limits granted him a smooth road. Due to his solid foundation, he possessed such momentum.

After just a few days, Shi Hao gained sufficient insight, initiating the breakthrough to Eleven Stars.

In about half a day, he succeeded immensely.

Eleven Stars achieved.

Shi Hao felt a faint sense of sentiment; now, among the Silver Spirit Immortals, who could stand as his rival?

Lin Hongdao no, Hong Tian no, Gu Cheng likewise not.

Alas, having pursued realms endlessly before, now that his strength surged, a lonely sense of invincibility emerged.

"Alas, why can’t there be a worthy opponent?" he shook his head, fully indulging in arrogance.

Now, only the disciples of Immortal Venerable sparked his interest, while battles with others... were sheer bullying, needing perhaps a concession of two or three minor realms?

Shi Hao emerged from seclusion, though he wasn’t particularly eager for the Grass Character Sword Spell, acquiring it for reference was welcome nonetheless.

Then he learned that Shi Hongfeng was still searching.

Throughout these two months, Shi Hongfeng had scoured the entire valley, employing the same method as Shi Hao, using thunder to bombard the grass in the valley yet repeated endlessly without success.

If Shi Hao hadn’t already succeeded once, Shi Hongfeng might have given up, as he came to Chaotic Immortal Domain not solely for Qianfang Valley but with other goals in mind.

"Senior Brother, Zhuiri Sect has come again!"
