At the sa ti, a large number of restless souls were killed at the remaining Great dicine spots.
The eight Immortal Venerables were stunned. What was happening?
Incarnation!
Then, they all reacted.
They had planned ticulously yet forgot Shi Hao had this ability.
They could also evolve incarnations, but their numbers were limited, unlike Shi Hao, who could release thousands or even tens of thousands.
What to do?
There were thirteen Great dicine spots left. If they split their forces, they couldn’t guarantee that every spot would have an Immortal Venerable.
"Instead of this, why not go to one place and try your luck?" Heavenshatter Immortal Venerable suggested.
"Alright!"
The eight Immortal Venerables set out, all heading to one Great dicine spot.
However, their luck wasn’t good.
Shi Hao was not here.
This made them frown. Another five hundred years had passed, how much had Shi Hao progressed in the mastery of the Superdinsional Space? If he were to obtain a few more Great dicines and refine them, his power would certainly advance trendously, then how could they kill this monster?
"Destroy all the remaining Great dicines, leaving just one!" Immortal Venerable Beimiao suddenly said.
What!
The remaining seven Immortal Venerables were startled, then slowly nodded.
This was extrely ruthless, but it was the only viable plan.
Did they want these Great dicines?
Of course!
But the environnt was dangerous, posing extre danger even to them. Even if they wanted to take it, they had to pay a great price, and the ti required was exceedingly long.
But if they only wanted to destroy these Great dicines, it was incredibly easy.
—They could do so easily from a distance.
It’s like an Immortal Venerable wanting to kill soone; no other Immortal Venerable could stop them.
The Immortal Elixir was now akin to a hostage. The danger of the Forbidden Land was akin to an Immortal Venerable. How easy would it be to destroy the Immortal Elixir?
The Immortal Venerable’s will is resolute. Once they make up their minds, they act imdiately.
Instead of Shi Hao extracting the Great dicines one by one, they’d rather destroy them.
Even if they couldn’t get them themselves, they wouldn’t let Shi Hao have them.
Shi Hao didn’t know about this yet. He had explored this Great dicine spot hundreds of years ago and studied its Principle of Origin, so he spent a little ti and succeeded in obtaining the Immortal Elixir.
He imdiately retreated, found a quiet place, and began to refine the Immortal Elixir.
This Immortal Elixir elevated him to mid-stage of sixteen stars, and it only took nine years, which was astonishingly fast.
"Find another Immortal Elixir." Shi Hao set off for the next Great dicine spot.
However, when he arrived there, he was imdiately stunned.
Where’s the Immortal Elixir?
Gone, only ruins remained.
The environnt was still harsh, and the poisonous sea ford by the Origin Immortal Rule was still terrifying, but the Great dicine in the middle of the sea had disappeared, and there were obvious traces of bombardnt there.
An Immortal Venerable’s handiwork.
Otherwise, even if a quasi Immortal Venerable made a move, the attack entering would be corroded by the poisonous sea, causing no damage whatsoever.
Does this an they won’t let him improve his cultivation?
—Without Immortal Elixirs, Shi Hao could still progress, but the speed would be very slow.
The later Shi Hao advanced to beco a quasi Immortal Venerable or Immortal Venerable, the more ti the eight Immortal Venerables would have to kill him.
He went from one Great dicine spot to another, finding that of the remaining spots, only one hadn’t been destroyed.
This was very obvious; the eight Immortal Venerables were telling him, do you want the Immortal Elixir?
Co here and get it.
This was an open sche. If Shi Hao wanted to quickly improve his cultivation, he’d have to find a way to obtain this Great dicine.
Shi Hao frowned. Even though he couldn’t sense any Immortal Venerables now, as soon as he appeared, the eight Immortal Venerables would be there.
The problem was, with his current strength, he couldn’t acquire the Great dicine quickly.
Otherwise, he might gamble on it.
So what to do?
Without the support of Great dicine, it would take Shi Hao at least several thousand years to reach seventeen stars, and the eighteenth star would take another few thousand years, maybe even tens of thousands to beco a quasi Immortal Venerable.
Ten thousand years!
How many changes could occur in this ti?
Too long.
Shi Hao pondered, how could he break through this situation?
He certainly wouldn’t dare to pick this Great dicine; not only because it was too dangerous, but more importantly, even if he could obtain it, it wouldn’t be enough to beco a quasi Immortal Venerable.
So what next?
He had to think of another way.
It’s not impossible, but exceedingly dangerous.
The Forbidden Land is called a Forbidden Land because even Immortal Venerables could be eliminated, and now these Great dicines, although growing in incredibly perilous places, evolved from Origin Rules, are not the most dangerous.
The truly dangerous places, Shi Hao had not entered yet; he didn’t even know if there were Immortal Elixirs inside because neither his Ocular Power nor Divine Sense could see through them, and incarnations would perish instantly upon entry.
Such perilous places are hardly easier than the combined efforts of the eight Immortal Venerables, but, perilous as they are, there is still a hope to pass through, which tests his strength, wisdom, and even luck.
Go.
Without hesitation, Shi Hao left, heading to such a perilous place.
In the Forbidden Land, there were only nine such deadly places corresponding to nine kinds of Origin Rules.
In which Origin Dao did Shi Hao hold the deepest mastery?
Fire.
Thus, he ca to the extre land representing the Fire Attribute.
It was a cave, and flas gushed from the entrance, equivalent to constant attacks from an Immortal Venerable, a terrifying sight.
Immortal Venerables could only comprehend one ten-thousandth of the Origin Dao, but the power of the flas here was estimated at one ten-thousandth of ten, so even if the nine Immortal Venerables were all here together, they couldn’t enter the cave.
Yet, Shi Hao was about to go in.
Maybe, inside were truly supre Great dicines.
Shi Hao had to take this risk, otherwise, his path to quasi Immortal Venerable would be indefinitely prolonged.
Of course, Shi Hao wouldn’t foolishly step inside directly.
Unlike other Origin Daos where he could study a little, this was impossible here; even a fingertip touch would devour him completely, killing him thoroughly without any chance of survival.
No wishful thinking allowed.
Was this truly unsolvable?
Quietly observing, Shi Hao wouldn’t believe there was an unsolvable peril in the world.
Heaven and earth, unlike Immortal Venerables, would surely leave a thin thread of hope.
So, Shi Hao stayed there.
With nowhere else to go, and his current realm limiting further advancents in the Origin Dao, he focused on ordinary cultivation, caring little about where he was.
A year, two years, three years, a total of seventeen years passed. During this ti, Shi Hao never took his eyes off the entrance, even during cultivation.
Suddenly, his eyes brightened.
(Asura’s finale is expected around the thirteenth, and the new book is being prepared, slated for release in October. Specific timing depends on the preparation.)
