Chapter 1623 - Supreme Treasure

Dang!

Sparks flew in all directions. This stone was many times tougher than even Divine Steel. If it was polished into a weapon, it would definitely be a secret treasure.

This left everyone quite shocked. How could it be this tough? From the looks of it, the human youngster was already using great divine abilities, but he still didn’t break through it.

“Could it be that after that battle, your foundation was injured, magical force dried up, body seriously injured? If you can’t do it, don’t force it.” Nuo Lan smiled, carrying a type of probing feeling. When she looked at Shi Hao, there was a hint of provocation as well.

Jin Yang also looked at Shi Hao, revealing a strange expression. He was hoping that Shi Hao really was injured, and that was why this type of situation happened, this way, he would feel a bit more at ease.

After all, after the battle, he himself was seriously injured, if this lower realm human youngster was unharmed, then it really would leave him too vexed and angry.

“

Sigh

, you guessed right, my cultivation was damaged. Forget it, I’ll just carry this rock back and find a chance to slowly open it. Regardless, this is still something I brought back from Immortal Domain, I’ll treat it as a souvenir.” Shi Hao said.

He wanted to bring the stone away, not wishing for it to be broken here, worried that the people of Immortal Domain would take it from him after. Just now, when the Void Immortal Gold appeared, there were already a few extremely powerful experts who came.

“Let me help you open it.” White Peacock Fairy smiled brilliantly.

Shi Hao never expected this young lady who was always considered amiable would stop him from bringing it away.

“There is no need!” Shi Hao said with a smile, expressing his thanks, moreover stating that only by opening it himself is there the greatest significance.

“There is no need to be polite, let me!” Nuo Lan spoke up. She directly took action, with a 

peng

 noise, a palm descended, shaking heaven and earth, the power shockingly great.

With a 

kacha

 noise, the rock cracked apart, moreover breaking into two parts.

The young lady with the red marking between her brows had domineering magical force, splitting this stone with just a raise of her hand. Everyone’s eyes looked over.

Even Shi Hao’s own heart was pounding. He knew that this stone should have something, that was precisely why he held back, not willing to break this stone in front of everyone.

However, what was unexpected was that it was empty. The rock didn’t have anything, completely lacking the so-called blood energy, damaged magical body, and other things.

“

Sigh

, my Immortal Gold Stele Scriptures were ruined by you just like that.” Shi Hao released a light sigh. This was obviously done on purpose, everyone else also knowing this.

“Forget it, as a souvenir, I’ll bring the damaged pieces back as well.” When he spoke up to here, he began to gather it.

“Wait!” Only, the other youngsters from Immortal Domain were all cautious, not showing the slightest bit of carelessness, still not willing to let this go. Even the purple-clothed Huo Fudou was about to take action.

Shi Hao’s mind sunk. It seemed like he couldn’t hide things. With things like this, he waved his hands, indicating that he was going to examine it himself.

The two broken stones were covered in cracks, long splitting apart. There was one piece that was comparatively larger, still three feet long.

Shi Hao chose it, carefully examining it, carefully exerting force. With a 

ka cha

 noise, it slowly split apart, releasing strand after strand of black mist.

At the same time, there was a rotting smell that made people frown.

When the strand of thick mist spread, the people here all backed up, decisively avoiding it.

It was because this type of black mist and blood energy were all dangerous things, readily causing demonic calamities. It might very well be an extremely dangerous object.

Even Shi Hao’s own mind sunk. This thing was different from what he had expected. It wasn’t some supreme treasure at all, actually having a rotting smell.

A pile of stones fell, the artifact inside revealing its true self.

Moreover, the black mist scattered, the rotting smell becoming faint.

The people in the surroundings walked up, carefully examining it. As for Sanzang and Shenming, their eyes were even more so staring without blinking, extremely entranced.

Chi. 

Nuo Lan was the first to laugh, her beauty fully revealed. The red speck between her brows even more so shone, body swaying like a divine lotus in the wind.

“This really is a supreme treasure, formidable, worth having! It matches you!” Nuo Lan ridiculed.

Jin Yang and the others also released strange expressions, carrying cold smiles. They now calmed down, this wasn’t some supreme treasure.

Sanzang and Shenming gave each other a look, and then looked at Shi Hao, their expressions complex. Sanzang patted Shi Hao’s shoulder, and then said, “I’ll help you pick a rock.”

“Didn’t you say you can’t see through it either, that we have to depend on our own feelings?” Shi Hao said with a darkened face.

He found it hard to believe. What was inside the rock was too strange. It was a part of a wooden sword… and it had rotted!

This was especially when no matter how one looked at it, it was used to teach children. The sword was not only small, its model was childish, definitely prepared for kids.

The most ridiculous thing was that it had rotted. Just a slight touch would cause wooden dregs to fall.

This… who was the one that sealed this?! Shi Hao wanted to curse outwards. This was too infuriating, like a prank, mocking later generations.

Of course, this was on the premise that the items in these stones really were sealed. Otherwise, it was useless even if he cursed inwardly.

What was ridiculous was that it was dark and swarthy, extremely filthy. Upon closer inspection, there seemed to even be a small fist imprint mark, traces of a child training with it for a long time.

“Regardless, this is something left behind from when emperors fell, an ancient artifact. If some older generation collectors saw it, they might even offer up a few divine coins to buy it.” Nuo Lan ridiculed.

“Those great figures who truly are fond of ancient artifacts, it isn’t entirely impossible for them to want to buy it for a few immortal coins.” Huo Fudou said with a serious expression.

However, no matter how one looked at this, they felt like this was mockery.

Shi Hao was speechless. He clearly sensed a wave of aura similar to the Everlasting Sword Core, so why did this rotten wooden sword appear?

Could it be that the so-called similarity was just that it came from the same era?

Shi Hao didn’t believe in the supernatural. He carefully sensed it, and then he moved, holding the wooden sword. With a 

kacha

 noise, a single mistake, a small piece was pinched off, landing on the ground.

Sanzang had an inwardly sore look, saying, “Be careful, regardless, it’s an ancient artifact, don’t ruin it.”

“Even you want to mock me?” Shi Hao wanted to beat someone up.

“Just put it away for now, who knows, it might be a supreme treasure. Perhaps later, when it absorbs enough heaven and earth essence energy, it will immediately become a sword core that can make even immortal kings’ eyes go red! If not, then pass it onto your future child!” Shenming said.

Shi Hao’s face darkened. Was there this type of consolation? This was a stupid shoddy sword, he should just throw it away!

Suddenly, immortal light flickered. A fifty to sixty year old elder appeared, rich immortal energy around him. He suddenly descended.

This was definitely a powerful individual, someone who carried an otherworldly temperament. However, when his depth was carefully sensed, it felt as if one was facing a sea, an abyss, impossible to measure, making even their minds collapse.

“Youngster, could you let me take a look?” He had a certain look on his face, his hair and beard grizzled, appearance transcendent and majestic.

Shi Hao handed it over, inwardly alarmed. The people of Immortal Domain really did care a lot about this place, all things that came out would be personally examined by great figures, not letting even a single thing go.

If not for this place being impossible to move, the pit’s depths having a great mystery, easily producing mysterious and dangerous creatures, it would have long been completely dug up.

As the elder observed, lightly rubbing it, another small piece directly fell from the wooden sword, wooden dregs also falling.

“Senior, please be more gentle, this is my brother’s supreme treasure, after searching all day, he only found this single ancient artifact. It has a bit of commemoration meaning.” Sanzang reminded.

“Senior, take it easy, this is but a divine ancient artifact, if it is broken, there isn’t a second one, your distinguished self won’t be able to make up for its loss.” Shenming also said.

“

Heheh… haha…

” In the surroundings, Jin Yang, Nuo Lan and the others all roared with laughter.

Shi Hao had an expression of hidden bitterness on his face. He looked at the two Golden Undead Knights. Others mocking and ridiculing was one thing, what were these two doing joining in on this?!

“There is a bit of a rotting smell, be careful of some inauspicious substances.” After the aloof and transcendent looking elder said this, he tossed the wooden sword back to him, directly leaving, not even turning his head, as if he couldn’t bear to stay here a second longer.

This was definitely a supreme being, perhaps even a half true immortal or even stronger. Since even he spoke like this, the wooden sword naturally didn’t have anything special about it. The White Peacock Fairy and others weren’t willing to touch it, no one continuing to examine it.

In the end, even though Sanzang was quite loyal, helping Shi Hao, they didn’t end up with anything.

Shenming also took action, in the end provoking a giant stone beast, this beast almost biting off Shi Hao’s head, creating a huge disorder. Only when supreme being level creatures hurried over was this stone beast scared off.

“It’s about time, you all should leave.” White Peacock Fairy calmly said.

Huo Fudou nodded, clearly stating that this was Immortal Domain, there was no way outsiders could be allowed to permanently reside here. They had to leave, this wasn’t the place they should remain in!

According to what they said, being able to enter Immortal Domain was already a tremendous opportunity. After all these years, Immortal Domain’s gates had never been opened before, this was a grand event.

“No one has been able to enter for an entire great era!”

“Today, no one can stay behind either!”

If not for Shi Hao having some misgivings, he really wanted to break out, rush into Immortal Domain’s depths. Either way, there were areas of this vast land that had not been explored by the immortal dao creatures yet.

The outside world was his foundation. That was where his friends and loved ones were, some people and events he could not let go of. He had to return.

When they left the stone gates, the Golden Crow Clan middle-aged man overseeing the gateway gave Shi Hao a deep look. In that instant, immortal light was like lightning, pressing over.

Shi Hao felt as if a great sun was crushing down, about to blasting him to pieces. However, he stood firm, not falling.

“It’s been a long time since I’ve seen such a strong human race youngster. Live properly, I hope the day comes when we can meet again.” The Golden Crow Clan middle-aged man said.

He released a bit of information that left Shi Hao shaken!

This meant that Immortal Domain was going to make their move in the end? However, it seemed like it would still be many years. At that time, how many creatures would be left in the Nine Heavens?

Before the stone gates closed, a few experts in Immortal Domain long produced secret treasures, releasing immortal light, purifying the places Shi Hao, Sanzang, and Shenming passed.

In that instant, the three of them felt a wave of anger, feeling humiliated. Immortal Domain was ridiculously arrogant, always like this, just this direct, looking down on the lower realms.

“We’ll meet again in five hundred years! Even if the lower realms are dried up, I will still definitely achieve immortality, just wait!” Shi Hao said.

Chi!

Nuo Lan, Huo Fudou and the others all sneered, carrying disdain, as well as arrogance.

Hong!

The stone gates closed, Immortal Domain thus closed off again.

It was like a dream. Immortal Domain that hadn’t been revealed to the world for so many years was actually opened up today, the three of them even entering. Shi Hao was speechless, standing there for a long time.

“It’s time to go.” Shenming tugged at his arm.

“I liked ancient artifacts, how about you gift that wooden sword to me.” Shenming’s smile was extremely sweet.

“I’ll treat it as a souvenir, just keep it on me.” Shi Hao subconsciously shook his head.

“It is just a wooden sword, what is the point of holding onto it?” Shenming muttered, extremely dissatisfied.

“Brother Huang, you know I am a Golden Undead Knight, so we are comparatively more interested in ancient underground artifacts. I can use divine weapons to exchange for it.” Sanzang said.

Shi Hao revealed a strange expression. “This is a supreme treasure, I long realized that it is extraordinary. Before, it was just to purposely numb Immortal Domain’s creatures. What will you bring out in exchange for it?”

“What do you want?” Sanzang asked.

Shi Hao was shaken up. This rotten wooden sword really was something great? He really didn’t see it. He immediately opened his mouth and said, “Void Immortal Gold Stele.”

“That’s fine.” Sanzang didn’t even take a moment to think about it, directly nodding without hesitation.

Shi Hao was shaken up. “A stele isn’t enough.”
