Chapter 610 – Little Stone’s Reappearance

Stone Village, a land of bliss .

Shi Hao was selecting his own things . He brought along the interspatial precious case and some other things, leaving everything else behind in the village . He sighed inwardly . The losses of the final battle had been too great .

He chose self-destruction . Both of Stone Village’s ancestral artifacts were damaged . There were two large holes on that beast skin, and that beast bone had cracks in it as well .

One has to understand that these were two divine magical artifacts, yet they were still ruined to this extent during that battle .

Apart from these two, the country protecting divine halberd, magical sword, and the other items were damaged as well . It truly made one sigh with regret . Unexpectedly, the broken sword left behind by Ghost Grandpa was still unharmed .

Meanwhile, what made Shi Hao feel the most regretful was that the imperishable golden body battle clothes was broken as well . It had been worn on his body, so at the final moment, it broke into dozens of pieces .

One has to understand that this was a damaged archaic treasure that could make the eyes of deities go red . There were many secrets regarding these rare battle clothes .

Fortunately, after the battle clothes broke apart, the core piece was left behind completely unharmed . It shone like black jade with symbols flickering about it .

One could imagine just how tough it was . All of the magical artifacts broke apart, but this core piece was still intact .

“I don’t know if it can still be restored . ” Shi Hao carefully collected it .

“Child, you have to be careful . ” The old chief warned again and again .

The villagers all came to see him off, watching as he ascended the village’s altar with Qingfeng . Many people’s eyes carried tears as they silently waved their hands .

“Grandpa Chief, Uncles, all of you have to take care of yourselves!” Shi Hao said . His eyes were already a bit blurry . After separating here, it might be decades or more than a century before they will meet again, maybe even never meeting again .

It was because after leaving now and completing what he had to do, he might not return to Stone Village and head straight for the higher realms .

On the altar, light flashed . He stepped onto the passageway with Qingfeng, thus disappearing from this place .

Stone Country, inside the imperial palace .

“Heh, these people truly are inciting my anger . They used living people as sacrifices, triggering a great massacre that lead to my Stone Country Emperor’s death, yet they still dare to ask for the void furnace!” The War King was surging with killing intent .

That day, they received another letter that included the same message . However, the tone seemed a bit more threatening .

It was written extremely clearly that the objects left behind by the seven deities were all ominous . If they continued to hold onto them like this, there would inevitably be a terrible tragedy that would occur, one that might lead to the death of a country .

“What a pity it is that communications are cut off with Stone Village . Otherwise, if we asked those two to come out, they would all definitely be killed!” The Ming King said . He was naturally talking about Hairy Ball and Little Red .

More than a year ago, those two creatures that lit their divine flames came here before to pay the dying Shi Hao a visit . However, this was treated as a top secret, so news of this did not leak out .

At that time, the two deities suffered severe injuries and lost a portion of their bodies . They reckoned that their injuries should be about recovered by now .

“They are truly going too far . After harming Stone Emperor, they still demand for those murderous weapons . Do they think there is no one inside my Stone Country?!” The Peng King shouted coldly .

These letters came one after another during these past few days, filling them with irritation and anger .

They had made preparations during these past few days, and if needed, they would take action . However, they also acted carefully . Since they already speculated that several great sects were pressuring them, they definitely couldn’t be relaxed .

One has to understand that those great sects’ supreme experts added up . If they brought a few powerful divine magical artifacts with them, it would be an extremely terrifying scene .

“A flame is burning within me . I truly want to directly slaughter towards those great sects, overthrow their gates and wipe them out!” The War King said .

“His Majesty’s death was truly unfortunate… He had such astonishing innate talent . His death was too early . ” When Shi Hao was mentioned, the individuals all went silent, feeling uncomfortable .

Shi Hao was astonishing, making his name known while so young and sweeping through all of his enemies, but he met such a tragic end . His fate was truly full of trouble and misfortune . Every time others recalled him, they would always sigh .

“Qin Hao now has two supreme being bones, so he is definitely shining brilliantly now in the higher realms . News even came a few months ago that he defeated five great heavenly geniuses in a row . ”

“Stone Emperor was going to go up, also going to shake a region with his name…” They couldn’t continue talking about this topic .

Things already reached this state, so what else was there to say? The little Stone had already died, passing away more than a year ago . Everything had already become history .

Meanwhile, the other youth could obtain Shi Hao’s bone and rise up in the higher realms . That was his natural opportunity, and now, no one could stop him .

“How unfortunate… our strength is still a bit lacking, or else we would have vented out some resentment for His Majesty, wiping out those great sects’ foundations and inheritances . ”

“The chance will come . Only, that Immortal Palace doesn’t have any inheritance in the lower realm, so we can’t deal with them . It is a pity . ”

Several old kings discussed this among themselves . When Shi Hao was brought up, they couldn’t help but feel a bit emotional .

Right at that moment, the ancestral altar in the imperial palace shone . It was extremely brilliant, forming a passageway . Someone was going to come out! It immediately startled the imperial guards that were protecting this place .

“Reporting, someone has appeared on the ancestral altar . ” An imperial guard reported .

“What?!” Several old kings stood up . They then quickly rushed over to the altar . They had a feeling that people from Stone Village came .

Sure enough, they saw Qingfeng walk down from the altar .

“Your Majesty, what happened? Why did you leave for more than two months so suddenly and cut off Stone Village from the outside world?” The Ming King asked . He was obviously referring to Qingfeng when he said ‘Your Majesty’, because he had already succeeded the position .

Qingfeng had a smile on his face without the slightest bit of arrogance and instead greeted these old kings respectfully, treating them like ancestral grandfathers . “Some unusual things happened in Stone Village . ”

“What kind of things?” These individuals hearts jumped .

Meanwhile, they noticed that the passageway hadn’t closed . There was another figure inside that slowly walked out and stepped onto the ancestral altar .

“Ah!!” The nearby imperial guards were immediately astonished . They were completely speechless .

When the War King, Ming King, Peng King and others saw this figure, an explosion happened in their minds . They felt a hot stream attack their eyes, and all of the blood in their bodies immediately surged .

“Your… Majesty!”

Their voices were trembling, not daring to believe what they were seeing . They stared at the youngster on the altar with wide opened eyes, feeling as if their entire bodies were burning up . They all trembled .

After being separated for more than a year, that familiar figure appeared again . It was just like a dream . Everyone was shaking greatly, feeling like their mouth and tongue were dried . They didn’t dare believe what they were seeing .

“Your Majesty, is it truly you?!” Forget about those imperial guards, even these old kings felt like they were in a dream . They were all incomparably shocked .

During this past year, apart from Qingfeng, Qin Yining and a few other individuals, only Yue Chan appeared . Now, they unexpectedly met Shi Hao!

“I’m not dreaming, am I? Stone Emperor… you are still alive! You’ve reappeared!” An imperial guard couldn’t help but cry out .

“Your Majesty!” Several old kings rushed forward . They now confirmed that this wasn’t an illusion . That aura was too familiar, there was no way they would mistake it! Shi Hao had returned!

“It’s me, I’ve made you all worry . ” Shi Hao walked down . When he saw these old kings, he felt emotional as well . These were people that he was truly close to . When he was severely injured and about to die, these people did everything they could, using all of Stone Country’s resources, even asking the entire world for a way to save him .

For his sake, these old kings had paid a great price . The bags of pill medicines could be piled up as if they were food . They definitely didn’t obtain them without a price . They were clearly exchanged for .

Apart from this, there was even a holy medicine that was even more so not casually obtained . They definitely exchanged for it with some great treasures from within the country’s treasury .

“Your Majesty… is truly still alive!” Everyone cried out loudly . A few younger imperial guards even jumped up . They were just too excited and moved .

“Haha…” The War King laughed loudly, his tears about to flow out . This was truly unexpected . His thoughts were rising and falling greatly .

He truly loathed the seven deities and felt furious towards the higher realms’ great inheritances . He really wanted to get revenge for Shi Hao, but the true deities were in the higher realms, so he was helpless to do anything .

During this past year, he had always felt a wave of fire burn within him . He felt that Shi Hao’s death was too regretful and sorrowful . He often used alcohol to drown out his resentment .

However, today, he could actually see Shi Hao again, seeing him walk out from the altar in a near perfect state . How could this not make him tremble with excitement?

“This… is a miracle!” The Ming King also began to tremble . He rushed over, examining Shi Hao carefully, fearing that this might be an illusion .

“His Majesty is extraordinary after all, haha… This time, the heavens finally opened their eyes . This world will no longer be lonesome!” Peng Nine roared with laughter . His eyes were brimming with tears of excitement . He was incomparably moved .

Haha . . .

Carefree laughter resounded through the air, shaking the palace halls . The old kings didn’t know how long it had been since they felt so joyous .

They returned to the central heavenly palace and listened to Shi Hao recount his journey back from death . The great supreme experts all sighed with sorrow . They then arranged for people to prepare a feast . They had to drink until they were dead drunk and properly celebrate . They were just too happy .

Inside the imperial palace, sounds of laughter continuously sounded . The old kings had been depressed for too long . This type of unbelievable result almost caused them to roar into the heavens . Right now, only good wine could close their mouths .

“Truly too happy! I never thought that there would be a day like today! It is just too great… His Majesty has risen from the dead, I wonder what kind of expressions those great sects would show after learning this, haha…”

“If news gets out, I think the entire world would be shocked and feel like this is just too unimaginable!”

“I fear that no one will believe us . They will all think that this is fake information, hahaha…”

They pushed cups and exchanged glasses, all of them drinking nonstop .

“What is this?” Shi Hao saw a letter on the table and revealed a look of suspicion . After reading it, a grim smile quickly appeared on his face .

He naturally could guess that it was the great sects that were making these demands, asking for the seven deities’ broken weapons . He never expected the void furnace to be so important .

“Void gold is an extremely rare material, with even a small piece difficult to find even after hundreds of thousands of years . There is a bit inside this furnace, which has drawn their jealousy,” explained the Ming King .

“Good, good, good!” Shi Hao continuously said good three times . He didn’t make trouble for these great sects, but the other party was actually going to knock on their doors first . It immediately lit a flame within his heart .

“They colluded with the higher realms, harmed His Majesty, and even dare to do this . This time, we will definitely make them pay the price!” said the War King .

Shi Hao had returned, raising their spirits greatly . What were they scared of now?

“Give them a reply . Tell those great sects that all of their sect protecting treasures, all of those divine magical artifacts are ominous objects, that they will bring about a bloody disaster if they keep them in their sects for a long time, so they should hurry and bring them all to Stone Country!” Shi Hao said .

The old kings stared blankly for a moment, and then they all roared with laughter . This was fighting back with equal harshness! If they returned this message, all of those words would be returned!

“Add another point, limiting the time limit to two days . Otherwise, I will personally pay them a visit to accept them!” Shi Hao said overbearingly . His gaze was incredibly intimidating .

“Alright!” The old kings weren’t the only ones that were excited; this was true for the young imperial guards as well . They were all extremely moved . Stone Emperor had returned, and as expected, he was powerful and without equal!
