"They may be waiting for the right opportunity, or they may be plotting some earth-shattering conspiracy..."
"Little one, if you go to the Upper Realm, remember to proceed with caution and prudence. It is far more complex and cruel than you can imagine."
With their conversation, Liu Shen and Xiao Ta slowly unveiled the mysterious and dangerous veil of the Upper Realm for Shi Hao and the Ruthless Empress.
As she listened to their stories, the ruthless empress's cold eyes flickered with uncertainty, as if she were pondering something.
Shi Hao, on the other hand, became even more determined to go to the Upper Realm!
Although it is fraught with danger, it is also full of endless opportunities and challenges!
That was the real stage for him to show his skills!
Just as the discussion about the upper realm came to an end, and the atmosphere became somewhat somber.
suddenly!
A deafening roar came from the direction of the back mountain!
Next!
Two equally powerful and terrifying auras, filled with primal and wild energy, suddenly erupted like two colliding comets!
“Ouch——!!!”
“Chi——!!!”
It was a powerful and domineering ape cry!
It was a phoenix cry filled with high-pitched and fiery passion!
"Huh? Is it Maoqiu and Little Red Bird fighting?" Shi Hao looked in the direction of the voice, a look of bewilderment on his face.
……
Behind Shicun, in that specially designated "Battle Zone of Gods and Demons".
Two figures transformed into two streaks of light, colliding and fighting fiercely!
On one side stood a golden divine ape, hundreds of feet tall, covered in brilliant golden fur, with dragon horns on its head, standing on crimson flames, and wielding a jet-black iron rod that seemed capable of piercing the heavens! It was none other than Zhu Yan—Mao Qiu, who had recovered most of its strength!
On the other side was a bird with a wingspan of hundreds of feet, its entire body ablaze with crimson-gold flames, its plumage magnificent, its divine might awe-inspiring, as if it were an immortal divine bird born from flames—the Vermilion Bird! It was none other than the Little Red Bird, whose strength had also greatly increased!
These two equally proud and powerful ancient ferocious beasts/divine bird descendants seem to have started fighting again over some trivial matter!
Maoqiu possesses unparalleled physical strength and boundless power! The black iron rod in its hand is even more powerful and heavy, each strike seemingly capable of piercing through the void!
The Vermilion Bird, engulfed in divine flames, moved with lightning speed! With each flap of its wings, a sea of crimson-gold fire scorched the heavens and boiled the seas! Its claws were incredibly sharp, capable of tearing apart divine metal!
The two fought back and forth, their battle so fierce that the heavens and earth trembled and the sun and moon lost their light!
Various powerful innate magical techniques have emerged one after another!
The people from Stone Village and Huo Ling'er, who were watching from afar, were all shocked and amazed!
"This guy, Maoqiu... has recovered his strength so quickly?" Shi Hao was secretly surprised as he looked at the golden divine ape in the arena, which was as brave and invincible as a war god.
It seems that the various rare and precious materials found in Kunpeng's Nest and Stone Village played a huge role in its recovery! Now, Maoqiu probably truly possesses the terrifying combat power of the peak of the Venerable Realm, or even the half-step Divine Fire Realm!
However, what interested Shi Hao even more was the unpredictable and ever-changing movement techniques and supernatural abilities that Maoqiu displayed in the battle!
Sometimes it transforms into a fierce tiger, descending the mountain to pounce and tear apart!
Sometimes it transforms into a giant python, twisting and strangling to kill!
Sometimes it transforms into an inconspicuous mosquito, silently approaching and launching a sneak attack!
This ability to do whatever one pleases, to be ever-changing...
Chapter 115: Shi Hao Transforms into Yuechan! A Giant Descends to the Mortal Realm Again! Invincible Willow Goddess! Peerless Empress!
"Seventy-two transformations!" Shi Hao's eyes flashed with a sharp light!
This is absolutely the legendary, closely guarded secret of the Zhu Yan clan—the Seventy-Two Transformations!
If I could learn this supernatural power...
His fighting style will become much more flexible and versatile! His survivability will also be increased many times over!
"No! I must learn these 72 Transformations!" Shi Hao made up his mind!
.......
The battle lasted for a full half hour, and in the end, the furry ball had a slight advantage.
Of course, the little red bird wasn't really defeated, but it seemed to be fighting rather sullenly, chirping incessantly as if it were cursing the furry ball as "shameless" and "despicable."
Maoqiu stood there with its hands on its hips, smugly pounding its chest and letting out a triumphant roar.
Shi Hao looked at these two clowns and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
He walked over to the man who was still beaming with an extremely "kind" smile.
"Ahem, um... Maoqiu..."
"Squeak?" The furry ball tilted its head when it saw Shi Hao coming over, seemingly a little confused.
Shi Hao rubbed his hands together, his face beaming with a smile, and said in an extremely "sincere" tone, "Look at us, aren't we like brothers? We're friends who've been through thick and thin together! Right?"
"Squeak?" The furry ball nodded, seemingly in agreement.
"Look at those moves you just made..." Shi Hao continued to coax, "They were so cool! So amazing! Absolutely breathtaking! I was completely in awe!"
He spared no praise whatsoever!
Sure enough, Maoqiu became even more smug after hearing Shi Hao's praise.
It even made a face at the little red bird next to it, as if showing off.
Seeing that the time was right, Shi Hao finally revealed his true intentions, chuckling, "So... Maoqiu, you know that 'Seventy-Two Transformations' move... could you teach me?"
Maoqiu: "......"
Not long after, at the back mountain of Shicun.
Within that "Gods and Demons Battlefield" reinforced by the power of the Willow God.
The "exchange of skills" and "sparring" between Shi Hao and Mao Qiu are in full swing.
With the generous instruction of the "master" Maoqiu, coupled with Shi Hao's own extraordinary comprehension, he gained a profound understanding and initial mastery of the legendary "Seventy-two Transformations" supernatural power in just a few days!
While it's far from being able to do whatever it wants, it's already incredibly lifelike in imitating the forms and auras of some familiar creatures, even to the point of being indistinguishable from the real thing!
"Hehe! Watch me transform!"
Shi Hao chuckled mischievously and activated the Seventy-Two Transformations technique he had just learned. His bones cracked and popped, and his figure rapidly changed in a hazy light!
The next moment, the spirited young man disappeared from the spot, and in his place appeared a fairy dressed in white, with a cold and holy temperament and an unparalleled beauty.
Her figure! Her appearance! Her temperament! Even the hint of stubbornness and barely perceptible shame and indignation hidden beneath her calm exterior were exactly the same as those of the Moon Fairy who was forced to "observe" from a distance!
"puff……"
Huo Ling'er, who was "keeping watch" for Shi Hao and keeping an eye on whether Mao Qiu was "slacking off," almost spat out the juice she had just drunk when she saw this scene!
Her large, fiery eyes widened in disbelief as she pointed at the "fake Yuechan," then glanced at the real Yuechan beside her, whose pretty face had instantly turned ashen. She stammered, "You...you rascal! You...you...how did you become like this?! And...you even look quite like her..."
Even the witch, who had been lazily leaning against the jade stone beside her, sipping a jar of monkey wine, now had her beautiful eyes wide open, her alluring peach blossom eyes filled with surprise!
"Hehehe... Little brother, your skills are quite impressive!" The witch laughed heartily. With a flicker of her body, she appeared before the two "Yuechan" figures like a ghost, looking them over with great interest, clicking her tongue in amazement. "So alike! So incredibly alike! You've even perfectly mimicked that pretentious air! If it weren't for my discerning eyes, I really wouldn't be able to tell which one is the real one and which one is you, you little rascal!"
She even stretched out her slender fingers and gently pinched the face of the "Shi Hao version" Yuechan, feeling the equally smooth and delicate "skin." Her smile became even more playful: "Tsk tsk, even the feel is so realistic... Little brother, where did you learn this transformation technique? It's really interesting!"
The real Moon Goddess, who was being imitated in public and even taken advantage of by the witch, was now blushing and trembling with anger!
"Shi Hao! You...you shameless!" She pointed at the guy who was wearing her likeness and screamed with endless shame and indignation!
That little scoundrel! How dare he? How dare he become like me?
This is an even greater humiliation than forcing her to be a maid before!
Looking at her adorable, exasperated expression, Shi Hao (Yuechan version) not only didn't restrain himself at all, but also deliberately imitated Yuechan's usual aloof and arrogant tone, nodding slightly to the witch and saying in a clear voice, "Witch, don't be rude."
"Pfft...hahahaha!"
Seeing this, the witch could no longer hold back and burst into laughter, collapsing onto the grass beside her, laughing so hard that tears were almost streaming down her face!
Even Huo Ling'er couldn't help but chuckle, her lips curving upwards in a wild smile. But seeing Yue Chan's murderous glare beside her, she forced herself to suppress her laughter, though her slightly trembling shoulders betrayed her true feelings.
"Alright, alright, I'll stop teasing you guys." Seeing that the jokes had gone far enough, Shi Hao dispelled his transformation magic, reverting to his original boyish appearance, his face full of smugness. "How was it? I've learned my Seventy-Two Transformations pretty well, haven't I?"
He looked at the fur ball next to him, seeking affirmation from the "professional".
The furry ball scratched its ears and cheeks, and squeaked twice, as if to say, "So-so, it's passable."
Shi Hao pursed his lips, expressing his dissatisfaction with Maoqiu's "stingy" assessment.
And it was in this relaxed atmosphere filled with playful banter and laughter that things really got interesting.
Nobody noticed.
The distant horizon, the once clear and cloudless sky, has been quietly tinged with a chilling dark red!
Next!
Rumble!
A deep, thunderous roar, as if it came from the deepest hell, suddenly resounded throughout the entire world!
The sky, like fragile glass, was covered with shocking, pitch-black cracks!
An indescribable, terrifying pressure, like an invisible tide, poured down wildly from the depths of the cracked sky! Instantly engulfing the entire desolate region!
"not good!"
Almost simultaneously!
The willow tree that had always stood quietly at the entrance of the village, and the ruthless empress who had always sat with her eyes closed next to it, suddenly opened their eyes!
Their gazes instantly became incredibly solemn and icy cold!
"Those old guys in the upper realm... are they really still not giving up?"
Xiao Ta's voice, filled with shock and anger, burst forth from Shi Hao's hair. The six-story tower shone brightly, and chaotic energy surged!
"So fast?" Shi Hao's expression changed drastically!
He clearly felt that the pressure that descended this time was many times more terrifying than the projection of the three magical artifacts last time!
