Chapter 339: Face-to-Face from Afar

Chapter 339: Face-to-Face from Afar

"Can one enter the Void God Realm from here?" Shi Hao asked.

"Naturally, you can. Even our national sacrificial spirits come from this place, bathed in the divine radiance. How could it be impossible to enter the Void God Realm?" Hu Ling'er responded. Then, she looked at him with curiosity and said, "Where did you enter the Void God Realm from before? It seems to me it wasn't the usual route."

Shi Hao chuckled dryly. It indeed wasn’t an ordinary route; it was quite different from the usual entrance, which was a desolate ruin.

After more than two years, Shi Hao entered the Void God Realm once again, and the feeling was quite different. Reflecting on the past, even the Void God Realm couldn’t stand him and had expelled him. He couldn’t help but smile.

The initial area was as bustling as ever, filled with unfamiliar faces he didn’t recognize.

Shi Hao strolled around, not in a hurry. As he explored, his eyes lit up when he saw two familiar faces still present there.

Master Bird and Lord Jingbi were definitely of peculiar origin. How else could they have been guarding the initial area for years? Shi Hao looked at them with surprise.

"How have you two old fellows been? It’s been so long. How many people have you tricked this time? Did I get a share of the spoils?" Shi Hao asked with a smile.

With a 'whoosh,' Lord Jingbi jumped up, carefully scrutinizing Shi Hao. "Is it you?"

He quickly glanced around and then whispered like a thief, "Don’t rush to reveal yourself. We’ll go sell some news later. I’ll give you half."

"Not interested, unless it's a treasure technique or the bones of a pure-blooded ferocious beast. Otherwise, it doesn’t attract me," Shi Hao replied.

"You’ve become more arrogant. Don’t forget, who was working with us more than two years ago?" Lord Jingbi said with dissatisfaction.

Master Bird also came over and said, "Kid, you’re really something. What big trouble are you planning to stir up this time?"

Shi Hao glanced at them sideways. "Do I look like the kind of person who seeks trouble?"

"Yes," both of them answered in unison.

Shi Hao rolled his eyes. "I’m a very principled person and never seeks trouble."

"Bah!" Both of them scoffed at him.

Hu Ling'er, standing at a distance, couldn’t stop laughing.

"Alright, kid, stop talking. As soon as you show up, it’s clear that something big is about to happen. With someone like you making an entrance, it’s bound to stir up the world. Don’t hesitate; we’ll handle everything," Lord Jingbi said.

Shi Hao inwardly scolded the two old fellows but went along with it. Let them have their fun; after all, it was the enemies who would be tricked.

Soon, news spread that the ferocious child was coming back and might have a great battle with Shi Yi.

Then, another piece of news spread that Shi Hao was in seclusion and might not appear for at least half a year.

The starkly different news caused a stir. Everyone was discussing it, and the Void God Realm became lively. Everyone was looking forward to Shi Hao’s appearance.

"Alright, the prelude is over. Now it’s time to hunt some fat sheep," said the two old fellows.

These two were habitual offenders, and their operations naturally whetted people’s appetites. Especially since these two had a close connection with Shi Hao in the past, they stirred people’s emotions.

"Damn it, it’s getting big now. Even pure-blooded beings are coming to the door. This job is quite significant."

Shi Hao didn’t get involved. He only knew that those two old rascals were tricking people again and gaining a lot of benefits. All major forces and pure-blooded beings appeared.

"Hey, this is a fair trade. Pay the original symbol bones, and we’ll give you the news. Otherwise, get lost."

Finally, a golden beast appeared. It was a servant from the Sacred Mountain, powerful and astonishing, with golden fur and an intimidating aura.

A group of golden beasts surrounded the two old fellows. The two remained unflinching, calmly negotiating and preparing to squeeze out some blood from the creatures of the Ancient Sacred Mountain.

In the end, Shi Hao appeared.

The initial area erupted in excitement. Shi Hao’s arrival in the Void God Realm caused a huge uproar. Everyone knew that a battle between the young supremes might be imminent.

Strong figures from various sects and the golden beasts from the Sacred Mountain arrived, only to be shocked and forced back by Shi Hao, leaving behind piles of original treasure bones. They were all frightened away.

With Shi Hao’s reappearance, the news spread everywhere, and everyone’s attention was focused on him.

To be honest, no one dared to cause trouble when Shi Hao appeared in the lower-tier regions, including the creatures of the Sacred Mountain. He could sweep through with ease.

Soon, he left that area and entered the cave heaven realm. Looking at the battlefield ruins of the past, he felt a bit nostalgic.

Shi Hao didn’t stay long and quickly moved into the spiritual transformation tier area, a place he had never ventured before. His arrival drew attention from all sides.

It’s worth mentioning that Lord Jingbi and Master Bird followed, joining in the excitement. Both were very powerful and unpredictable.

"Aren’t you supposed to stay in the initial area?" Shi Hao asked.

The two chuckled and said they had business to attend to. The so-called business naturally involved Shi Hao. They wanted to set up a betting pool to attract powerful figures from all directions.

The two young supremes might clash, and they didn’t want to miss it.

In the capital of Shi Nation, the Martial King’s Mansion.

Shi Yi opened his eyes upon receiving the report, his expression calm. "I’ll go take a look."

His divine light was retracted, and his Dao rhythm was naturally formed. Now he had an aura of returning to simplicity, reciting scriptures daily, which led to a kind of cleansing of body and spirit that outsiders found hard to understand.

"Shi Yi is here."

"Oh my God, the one with the heavy pupil has appeared."

The Void God Realm was in an uproar. Everyone was shocked, and the other young supreme among the two main characters also showed up.

The shock was felt in all directions. People’s breathing quickened. Was a confrontation about to happen, or was it like a comet about to strike the earth?

In recent days, Shi Yi had appeared multiple times, but not constantly. Now that he had arrived, it was clear he was coming for his younger cousin.

The waves rolled over the mountains. Not only was the Void God Realm boiling like hot water, but even the real world was abuzz with discussions.

"Did you hear? Both young supremes have entered the Void God Realm. Hurry and go watch. They might battle."

"Don’t miss it. A battle with far-reaching impact might be about to start."

Over the years, the Void God Realm had seen its share of storms, but nothing as lively as now. The number of people was overwhelming, with figures everywhere, a sea of faces.

On this day, it was unclear how many cultivators were watching. The Void God Realm was overcrowded.

Shi Yi arrived first at the initial area, then moved to the cave heaven level, and finally to the spiritual transformation level. He ended up at the area of the inscription realm.

The two were strangely separated in different areas and did not meet immediately.

This made everyone nervous and eager, even more anxious than the parties involved.

Why hadn’t they met right away? In fact, when Shi Yi passed through the spiritual transformation area, Shi Hao already knew, but neither of them had moved toward the other.

Would they fight? People speculated that if they did, it would likely break records for the Void God Realm. They were preparing for an epic battle.

At this moment, the people in the Void God Realm were divided into two groups. One group was in the spiritual transformation level, and the other was waiting for Shi Yi, anticipating their showdown.

"Brother, it’s been many years. How have you been?" Finally, Shi Yi spoke across the distance, his tone calm.



Somebody relayed these words back, causing everyone to look on with surprise.

"Don't worry, it's fine." That was Shi Hao's response.

The scene was quite strange; they hadn’t met in person but were conversing from a distance, leaving people puzzled.

"It's been years. I miss you. When will you come and see me?" Shi Yi asked.

"If you want to see me, you should come over," Shi Hao replied.

This left everyone feeling frustrated and uneasy. What was this? Were these two young supremes really just talking across a domain like this? When would they fight?

At this moment, people also guessed that these two were wary of each other and didn’t want to act recklessly. If they did fight, it would surely be as explosive as thunder.

"How is Uncle Ziling?" Shi Yi inquired.

Upon hearing this, Shi Hao’s gaze became intimidating. Years ago, his father had been besieged by the Rain Clan with divine authority, suffering severe injuries. To find a divine medicine for him, he had gone far away and his whereabouts remained unknown.

Everything stemmed from that mother and son. Shi Yi’s current inquiry was either a provocation or a normal courtesy.

"Uncle should be fine," Shi Hao replied淡淡地.

In the battle at the capital, Shi Hao had defeated Shi Zitong, causing severe injuries. Mentioning it now carried both courtesy and provocation.

"When will we have a fight?" Shi Hao asked, getting straight to the point.

This time, Shi Yi did not appear but took out a piece of original symbol bone, carving a few words on it and sending it over.

"Anytime for a battle." The words were simple, radiating a powerful pressure. When Shi Hao read them, they burst with an incomprehensible light before exploding.

Around them, the heroes trembled. It was like a vast ocean of a personal imprint, overwhelming in its grandeur.

If it weren’t for Shi Hao, others would find it hard to bear.

This was clearly a covert battle. Shi Yi was assessing his younger cousin's strength. If Shi Hao couldn’t even handle a single inscription, there was no need to discuss further.

Shi Hao took a step forward, and no one dared to block him in the spiritual transformation tier area. He arrived at the Rain Clan's residence, a grand and pristine territory.

At this moment, all the Rain Clan members were on edge. Was this place about to become a battlefield again? After all, the foundation of the Rain Clan’s cave heaven tier had been destroyed by this person before.

With a clang, Shi Hao removed the bronze plaque, extracting the Rain Clan's door plaque from afar, which caused the clan to change color, but they dared not voice their anger.

"Is my bone useful?" Shi Hao carved the inscription and then threw it into the Rain residence.

The plaque was quickly brought to Shi Yi. Divine light erupted from it, and the characters resounded like a heavenly sword, illuminating the area. Many people saw it.

"Very good. It matches with me, not inferior to the power of the heavy pupil." Shi Yi responded, carving a line of text that carried both arrogance and disdain.

His words were clear: he felt no guilt and believed that the supreme bone was not as good as the heavy pupil.

"Is the heavy pupil very strong? I’ve never felt that. Otherwise, why would you lack confidence and resort to using someone else’s bone?" Shi Hao retorted.

The two young supremes were at odds, and although they were relatively calm, it was clear that a major storm could erupt at any moment.
