Chapter 1986 - A Faint Trail of Footsteps

Tuogu Yulong suffered serious injuries, his primordial spirit’s corrosion too severe. In the end, not even Shi Hao’s half immortal emperor blood could save his life.

The last of Wei Family’s Four Phoenixes, the one who accompanied Tuogu Yulong and long became dao companions with him was also seriously injured. She remained at Tuogu Yulong’s side, following him in passing.

“Sigh, all of you are leaving already. Wait for me...” The owner of the Five Spirits War Chariot Qi Hong released a light sigh. He had a part of his primordial spirit that was also seriously affected. When he saw the two pass on like this, he felt great grief.

With a chi sound, his primordial spirit shattered, crumbling to pieces because of the darkness radiance, passing away just like that.

They all came from Desolate Border’s Imperial Pass and fought at Shi Hao’s side. However, in the end, there was this type of conclusion, leaving the living in sorrow.

Apart from this, there were other old friends who left this world.

Great Xu Tuo passed away, Little Sky King perished, Lan Xian turned into coal. These were all world shocking heaven warping figures and beautiful fairies, but in the end, they still left this world.

This battle was even more miserable than what Shi Hao thought at first, actually this many people dying.

Cough...

The witch opened her eyes, only having a ruined body left. She was originally stunning and enchanting, her style exceptional, yet now, her state was miserable, almost completely dying in this battle.

“You still couldn’t bear to let me go?” After she revived, she spoke with difficulty, blinking her eyes, her beautiful face full of traces of blood.

Even though she almost died, at this moment, her mood was still light. This was her nature, naturally like this, carrying a type of craftiness within her charm.

She was someone Shi Hao dragged out from the piles of the deceased, rescuing her from Imperial Court’s deceased troops.

Shi Hao was between laughter and tears. They were already at this step, yet she was still smiling brilliantly, making him feel a bit bitter. This damned chaotic world!

There were some who weren’t willing to be sealed, for example, Ten Crown King, Exiled Immortal and Shi Yi, these individuals choosing to leave. They were prideful, never willing to lower their heads.

Even though the distance from Shi Hao became greater and greater, no way of catching up, they still weren’t willing to be like dust in this world, wishing to live brilliantly in this cruel and great turmoil.

“Even if I die tomorrow, what is there to fear?!”

In Ten Crown King’s eyes, life was the most important experience. He wanted to continue walking down his path, tread out his own footsteps.

“I actually don’t want to be sealed either. I want to see just what kind of strange monster will appear, if it will come out from the Land of Darkness.” The Lunar Jade Rabbit muttered.

Shi Zhongtian was extremely open-minded, listening to Shi Hao’s arrangements, because this was his own grandson.

A’man smiled gently, looking at Shi Hao. There would always be some who were willing to understand him. A’man was good at understanding others, always good to Shi Hao.

She didn’t want Shi Hao to feel worry inside, willing to sleep. This way, he could peacefully head on his way, focus on his battles.

If there was a choice, no one would be willing to be sealed.

This terrible chaotic world, this cruel turmoil, it truly was about to arrive.

After this day, Imperial Court became cold and dismal, no longer having any signs of life. Shi Hao was the only one left. Those who left left and those who slept slept.

The corpses of the old soldiers and the remains of divine generals were all buried in Imperial Court’s remains, located on a smashed group of palaces. This place seemed extremely desolate, extremely tattered.

The nine sets of dragon bones pulled a bronze ancient coffin, moving through the void, heading into the distance. It was banished by Shi Hao.

That was an unknown path. It wandered outside Immortal Domain, moving through layers of ruined worlds, accompanied by thick time fragments, gradually becoming indistinct.

This was Shi Hao’s great method, his dao, using his most powerful divine abilities to send it into exile, undisturbed by anyone, unable to be derived.

Only if he himself was still alive, could he find them.

The nine dragon bones moved about, flesh slowly appearing, covering their bodies. They were previously Immortal Dao Domain True Dragons!

However, their power had all been erased.

Shi Hao derived natural luck with great magical force, helping them reconstruct their flesh, even releasing life brilliance. They guarded the Three Life Bronze Coffin. Unless one obtained the acknowledgement of the defense runes or broke through the barrier of light, there was no way of entering the bronze coffin.

Darkness Willow Deity, Golden Fur Hou and others naturally refused to sleep. Experts of their level wouldn’t make that type of choice.

The restricted region lord, crystal skull and other old monsters all refused politely, heading to Pan King to remain there as guests, reminisce about old times. Shi Hao knew that they were perhaps truly weary, wishing to meet their conclusion in this world of chaos.

The Heavenly Horned Ant carried his Immortal Gold club, wandering about, stating that he wanted to pay Cao Yusheng a visit. After completing his great revenge, he was no longer as grave and gloomy as before.

Time continued on. Shi Hao sat in Imperial Court alone.

This place was full of weeds, ruined walls everywhere. Graves stood one after another. Tens of thousands of years passed, but he didn’t leave, even his body was covered in a thick layer of dust.

Imperial Court!

A one man Imperial Court!

After all these years, he thought about many old events and also thought about the future, sensing the feeling of loneliness in the silence. He accumulated cultivation, awaiting the ultimate battle.

He sensed that the world-shattering age wasn’t far!

Should he slaughter his way over, or would the ones from the Land of Darkness come to him?

Kacha!

Origin Ancient Artifact was opened by him. The radiance erupted, but it then quickly went out again. It was because Shi Hao suppressed it with unmatched magical force, sealing all of it in his hands.

The bone crown moved about, struggling intensely.

However, it couldn’t struggle free, firmly suppressed by Shi Hao.

“Kill!”

Shi Hao released a light shout. He exerted magical force, his boundless dao skills frantically surging. He activated great dao flames, activating it with all of his might, erasing the will in that bone crown.

There were intense fluctuations and terrifying collisions.

At this time, the other chest was also moving. That bone staff wanted to undo its seal, rescue the bone crown.

“So what if I let you out?!”

In the end, Shi Hao held the two half immortal artifacts, one in each hand. Great dao flames extended to his arms, wrapping around them, crazily trying to refine them.

The dark mist scattered. This was darkness essence, but it was directly shaken off by Shi Hao.

Moreover, the two biting cold wills were erased by him, ruthlessly crushed.

“Origin Ancient Artifacts!”

Shi Hao closed his eyes, quietly saying this to himself. He obtained some information from the two ancient artifacts.

As expected, they came from the Land of Darkness, the divine objects of that place.

The two chests descended onto this border of Realm Sea, carrying orders. Their responsibility was to create creatures of darkness, some of them would be sent back to that ancient land through Guidance Ancient Palace.

Shi Hao thought of Great Elder, he was precisely this type of chosen individual.

There were also large amounts of creatures who fell into darkness, but were left on this side.

“The Land of Darkness lacks life, they need to produce them here!”

Shi Hao now completely understood what kind of place that land on the other side of Realm Sea treated this world as. It was the place where darkness creatures were made, the land of birth.

When he thought about it like this, many things became clear.

The bone crown and magical staff were both refined by Shi Hao, becoming his artifacts. All remnant wills were completely erased.

Tens of thousands of more years passed. Imperial Court became more desolate, dried vines, old crows, weeds, great tombs...

From time to time, between thousands of years, over ten thousand years, the sounds of a man crying could still be heard. This made the outside world feel great fear towards this place, not daring to approach it.

In reality, Imperial Court’s reputation already spread. Everyone knew that Huang established Imperial Court, but he was the only member!

Meanwhile, Imperial Court was located precisely in this ruined land.

“Imperial Court has already been established. Are you still not coming?!”

Shi Hao looked towards the heavens.

In the end, one day, he drew over endless darkness force, tangling it about himself, corroding himself. This was only for the sake of entering the Darkness Prison side.

This was quite similar to what Willow Deity did in the past.

If one wanted to reach the other end of Realm Sea, wanted to head to the ultimate ancient land, this was perhaps the fastest path, but also the most dangerous one. He might be forever suppressed within the Darkness Prisons.

He was abandoning his flesh, only his primordial spirit could head on his way!

Shi Hao made this choice.

The darkness light and the strong source matter invaded Shi Hao’s flesh, moreover opening up a path, guiding his primordial spirit out.

In the past, he had come here before. He saw the great river of time, seeing the endless prisons rising and falling along that river, carrying out a reincarnation.

“Break for me!”

Shi Hao shouted out. His primordial spirit roared in the Darkness Prison, tearing apart this place, shaking up the river of time that had existed from past to present.

Shi Hao shattered the primordial spirit prison, charging his way out. He stood in the darkness, looking around himself.

This prison was quite strange, changing according to the dao skills of the one it locked up.

However, it still had a limit, at most able to restrain immortal kings. If one wanted to restrain a half immortal emperor, that was too difficult.

Hong!

Shi Hao brandished his fist, destroying prisons one after another, opening up the path. One after another, he released the confused primordial spirits.

This was a world shocking matter, enough to shake up past and present!

Its effects were too profound. Someone slaughtered his way here, destroying large amounts of prisons, releasing the primordial spirits that were previously locked up.

In the end, this type of effect was too great, touching upon some type of mysterious law. Shi Hao’s path ahead was stopped.

In addition, with a honglong noise, the darkness burst open. Shi Hao returned to the real world. Other than that, there were some primordial spirits that also struggled free, arriving in Immortal Domain.

That day, there was a huge uproar!

Immortal Domain was in a commotion!

Huang took action, actually opening up the Darkness Prison, releasing thousands of well-known talents in history.

Some of these were in the Mortal Dao Domain and some of them even entered the Immortal Dao Domain. There was even an immortal king among them!

Some of them came from the Nine Heavens Ten Earths, some from Immortal Domain and there were actually also some creatures from the endless river of time. Their original world had long been destroyed.

This was a reincarnation of great eras, great tombs altered and shifted, many of them disappeared.

“Huang is unmatched from past to present!”

“Heavenly Emperor!”

Someone shouted out the two words ‘heavenly emperor’. In Immortal Domain, there would always be some youngsters who admired the strong, or some who felt like half immortal emperor was still not enough to describe Shi Hao’s power.

Moreover, now, Shi Hao established a one man Imperial Court, carrying a type of tragic feeling. That was why some people began to call him Heavenly Emperor.

In reality, even some immortal kings began to call Shi Hao Emperor.

It was because he had indeed surpassed the king realm, now far above. With a raise of his hand, he could destroy the most powerful immortal kings.

Now, some people called him Heavenly Emperor, but there was surprisingly no one who retorted. Ever since the Age of Emperor Collapse, there has never been anyone who reached this step.

That was why Shi Hao being called Emperor was something all clans could accept.

Shi Hao’s primordial spirit returned to his body. There was darkness power all around him, but it couldn’t destroy his flesh and bones, on the contrary, seemingly increasing some type of nourishing.

Only when one reached his level, would they understand the subtle differences in their body.

In his head, there was a bit of radiance, as if it was trying to produce a soul. This was the result of his flesh’s power being released to the limit.

The darkness matter served as some type of stimulant.

“The flesh was actually this important!” Shi Hao said with a sigh. Then, the expression in his eyes became fierce.

In that Darkness Prison, he previously experienced something. Without his flesh’s primordial spirit, no matter how strong he was, even if he became a half immortal emperor, he still felt like rootless duckweed.

“I cannot rush into the prison with only the primordial spirit, trying to reach the Land of Darkness this way. My flesh also has to head over!”

Shi Hao felt like he had to cross the sea while in the most powerful condition. His flesh couldn’t be separated from his primordial spirit!

“There was someone who said that only by giving up the flesh, can the sea be crossed. In my opinion, only rushing over with the primordial spirit is definitely the wrong choice!” The expression in Shi Hao’s eyes was penetrating.

In the end, Shi Hao moved. He had already remained in this realm for a long time. He decided to head on his way.

Many kings sent him off, watching as Shi Hao headed into the Realm Sea.

“That is...”

Everyone was shocked, even their souls trembling.

On the dam, a faint trail of footsteps appeared. In everyone’s eyes, they were clear and dazzling. This was left behind by Huang. He continued forward, directly entering Realm Sea!
