Asura Emperor Venerable-Chapter 882 Forbidden Land

Slap! Slap! Slap!

With each whip strike, Shi Long continuously let out miserable cries. Although his body was unscathed, his screams were incredibly heart-wrenching.

This left people both perplexed and shocked.

To say Shi Long was faking it—had it come to this, what would he fake?

But clearly, Shi Hao was just making a gesture of swinging the whip without emitting even a ripple, so how could he reduce a strong expert who had ascended to the Saintly Position to such a sorry state?

Shi Long, too, understood that if this continued, his soul would be smashed into oblivion. At that point, even if his body remained unharmed, he would be nothing more than a living dead.

Therefore, he must reverse this situation; otherwise, he would truly be finished.

Kill!

"Myriad Star Hammer!" He unleashed a powerful strike, surging forward with grand momentum.

Shi Hao laughed heartily and similarly launched a powerful attack.

"The Void!" He shouted lightly, a "Void" character appearing on his forehead that absorbed endless light, casting the entire world into darkness, with only this "Void" character shining brightly.

Bang!

The Void character was unleashed, smashing the power hammer that Shi Long had gathered into pieces. The Void did not stop, continuing forward, pressing directly toward Shi Long.

Shi Long was utterly in despair.

This strike was too terrifying, crushing his powerful move like decaying timber.

A powerful move, yet it vanished without even causing a splash?

But the Wordless Spell was already upon him, and he had no choice but to muster all remaining strength to confront it.

Bang!

He was blasted away, spitting blood profusely.

Old Ding’s supreme technique, traversing nine lifetimes, was indeed formidable, allowing Shi Hao to injure a stronger opponent even when slightly weaker. In this respect, Old Ding was truly an unparalleled genius.

Shi Hao pursued closely, right fist and left whip, launching a frenzied assault on Shi Long.

For Shi Long, this was unsolvable.

The Striking God Whip was too terrifying, each lash coming mercilessly, completely unstoppable and unavoidable, forcing him to endure the agony struck on him.

In this way, how much of his combat power could possibly remain?

Under the fierce barrage of right fists, Shi Long was overwhelmed, unable to defend adequately, taking hit after hit, the explosive sound of breaking bones echoing.

By now, everyone could see clearly that Shi Long was headed for defeat.

Pssh, even those who ascended in the second step of the Saintly Position cannot match Shi Hao now?

Though Shi Hao’s victory had an element of clever tactics, utilizing a great instrument like the Striking God Whip, if he were not strong himself, could he have achieved this?

Bang! Bang! Bang!

After several consecutive fierce blows, Shi Long was covered in blood, looking even more miserable.

Shi Long’s eyes turned sharp, realizing that continuing like this would surely be his death.

In that case, fight to the death!

"You forced me to this!" He roared, and boom, his Life Origin began to burn instantly. As the Saintly Position crumbled, the altar collapsed, the Divine Temple fell; he self-destructed his realm, pushing his combat power further, seeking to perish together with Shi Hao.

The best course of action for Shi Hao would be to enter the Immortal Abode and evade Shi Long’s outburst. After all, it would not last beyond ten breaths, but Shi Hao was reluctant.

He wanted to finish the enemy by his hand!

Sky-Flipping Seal!

Suddenly, an indescribable immense power was unleashed.

Shi Long saw this, revealing a sneer.

He feared that Shi Hao would not confront directly, but instead evade all around to avoid his outburst period. Now Shi Hao faced head-on, fitting precisely what he desired.

"Die!" He shouted, unleashing all his power.

Child, what great-grandfather can do for you is only this.

Without Shi Hao, you will have no rival in the Mortal Realm; our clan will once again rise, and may even dominate in the Immortal Realm.

Enough!

Shi Long laughed maniacally, with unyielding resolve, pressing forward without a thought of return.

Under the crush of the Sky-Flipping Seal, even if it was a second step Saintly Position, so what?

Crack crack crack, Shi Long’s arms were forcefully broken, yet the power of the Sky-Flipping Seal remained unresolved, continuing to blast towards Shi Long. Bang, Shi Long’s chest was even pushed inward, his face instantly turned golden.

"Cough! Cough!" Shi Long continuously spat out shattered internal organs, the body plummeting from the sky like a kite with a broken string, showing no signs of rising again.

Bang, he fell to the ground. Despite the strong body of the Saintly Position preventing him from being torn apart, his eyes were wide open, yet he had lost all semblance of life.

Shi Long, deceased.

Shi Hao watched quietly, without the slightest sense of pleasure.

Killing was never something that brought joy; it was for peace of mind.

He did not slaughter indiscriminately, only executed several leaders of Shi Long’s faction, while all other members were expelled from the Imperial Capital, scattered among different branches, and over time, these people naturally assimilated.

Moreover, as long as life was good, who would think of rebellion every day?

Now, with internal troubles resolved, it was time to focus on external enemies and improving his own strength.

Shi Hao returned to the Imperial Palace and commenced closed-door cultivation.

Currently, he still had plenty of cultivation resources, allowing him to continue rapid improvement in a short period.

Due to the threat of Shi Huayun, Gu Tong suggested Shi Hao move to Old Gu. After all, the Stone Country was always governed by the three Regent Kings, and even without his presence as Emperor, it would not have much of an impact.

Foreign expeditions did not require Shi Hao’s involvement either, so Shi Hao needed to do something very simple—stay alive and enhance his cultivation.

Shi Hao was not averse to spending some time on a trip to Old Gu, also eager to consult Old Gu about matters of the Immortal Realm.

Thus, he set off with joy.

For safety, Gu Tong even invited Han Xiuyue to escort Shi Hao, ensuring safety along the way. Shi Huayun did not attempt an ambush, perhaps knowing that she could not kill Shi Hao with Gu Tong and Han Xiuyue together, so she did not waste the effort.

Time was on her side, so she was in no hurry.

Arriving at the Cursed Land, Gu Tong and Han Xiuyue departed, while Shi Hao, Weng Nanqing, and the Purple Gold Rat joined Gu Shiyun.

With Old Gu present, there should be no fear of Shi Huayun.

Shi Hao chatted with Old Gu for a while, mainly probing about the Immortal Realm.

Old Gu was a person full of adventurous spirit. When he was a Copper Armored Immortal of the seven stars, he went to a place recognized as a death zone in the Immortal Realm, known as the "Forbidden Zone", and surprisingly emerged alive, gaining considerable fortune.

For instance, the Sky-Flipping Seal and the Treasure Instrument where Yue Ying resided; both were obtained from the Forbidden Zone.

However, although he acquired treasures, the memory of how he obtained them was severed.

"Old Gu, your luck is truly extraordinary!" remarked the Purple Gold Rat with a sigh. "Look at myself, I also entered the Forbidden Zone, and what happened? I gained no benefits, lost my physical body, and was forced into the body of a rat!"

Bang!

The Purple Gold Rat was immediately kicked flying by Old Gu.

Who was being disrespectful; calling Old Gu like that?

The Purple Gold Rat grinned, while Shi Hao was surprised. Had this rat also been to the Forbidden Zone?

He did not believe that the Purple Gold Rat gained nothing, but with its cautious and suspicious nature, it would certainly hide its acquisitions.
