"This is... Shanbao!" A glint flashed in Shi Hao's eyes.
He carefully removed the bone box; it felt warm and incredibly heavy to the touch.
"Done! Furry, you did a great job!" Shi Hao excitedly rubbed Furry's little head and rewarded it with a piece of jerky.
"Squeak!" the fluffy ball chirped happily.
Little did he know, this was something he had originally stolen, and now Shi Hao had taken it away without a second thought.
Without lingering, Shi Hao immediately took Maoqiu and Shanbao, mounted the Azure Roc, and returned to Stone Village at top speed.
……
When Shi Hao returned to Shi Village, it was two days later.
The villagers breathed a sigh of relief when they saw him return safely. But when they saw the golden, furry little monkey they had never seen before on his shoulder, they were filled with curiosity.
Shi Hao didn't have time to explain too much to them. He simply carried Shanbao and Maoqiu to the willow tree.
"Willow Goddess, I'm back! Look what I found!" Shi Hao handed the mountain treasure to Willow Goddess.
The will of the Willow Goddess awakened once more and landed on the bone box.
"Huh? It's...this thing?" For the first time, a clear look of surprise appeared in Liu Shen's mind. "I never thought that the legendary Supreme Hall inheritance...actually exists, and you, little guy, even found it. Your luck is truly extraordinary."
The Supreme Hall's legacy, it truly is it!
Shi Hao was even more excited, as it seemed the plot hadn't changed.
"Liu Shen, this thing seems to be impossible to open?" Shi Hao asked, puzzled.
He knew that this mountain treasure seemed to require a special method to unlock.
"It doesn't matter."
The willow branches of the Willow God all emitted a sacred green light!
The soft green light, like flowing water, enveloped the mysterious mountain treasure.
click-
A soft, crisp sound!
Next!
boom--! ! !
A magnificent ray of light shot into the sky, illuminating the entire Stone Village and even the sky for hundreds of miles around with dazzling brilliance!
Endless auspicious energy rose, accompanied by melodious celestial music!
Incredible phenomena such as dragons and phoenixes bringing good fortune and unicorns offering auspicious omens appeared and disappeared in the air!
Amidst the soaring rosy light, the phantom of an ancient and magnificent temple, seemingly constructed from runes of the Great Dao, slowly emerged.
This is the legendary Supreme Palace!
Chapter Sixteen: The Six Paths of Reincarnation Heavenly Technique – Begins the Trial!
Above Shicun, rays of light and auspicious clouds filled the sky!
The Supreme Palace!
This is the legendary creation that carries unparalleled inheritance and is coveted by countless ancient species and even giants from the upper realm!
Shi Hao stood under the willow tree, gazing up at this breathtaking scene.
However, the Willow God intervened again, causing these strange phenomena to dissipate.
Otherwise, it would alert the beings beyond the Great Wilderness and bring unnecessary trouble.
Afterwards, Shi Hao and Liu Shen began to examine the contents of the mountain treasure.
[Ding! Detection indicates the host has acquired the "Supreme Hall" inheritance!]
[Inherited core cultivation technique: The Six Paths of Reincarnation Heavenly Technique!]
[Inherited Treasure Techniques (partial list): True Hou Treasure Technique, Golden-Winged Roc Treasure Technique, Golden Crow Treasure Technique, Bifang Treasure Technique, Taotie Treasure Technique...]
[Special Item: One Spirit-Enriched Suanni Beast Hide (containing a seal)!]
[Analyzing the core cultivation technique... Compatibility with the "Desolate Heaven Emperor" template: Extremely high! Initiating assisted fusion...] ["Desolate Heaven Emperor" template fusion rate increased! Current fusion rate: 1.5%...1.8%...2%...!]
The system notifications kept ringing, but Shi Hao was completely immersed in the information about the inheritance of those precious techniques and cultivation methods.
The Six Paths of Reincarnation Heavenly Technique!
This is the most powerful celestial technique created by the Six Paths Reincarnation Immortal King.
If it were to appear in the upper realm, it would surely unleash a bloodbath.
In addition, there are many other powerful magical techniques!
The True Hou is an ancient ferocious beast whose roar can shatter the outer starry sky!
The Golden-Winged Roc, with unparalleled speed, soars straight up to ninety thousand miles!
The Golden Crow, the essence of the sun, wields the Heaven-Burning True Fire!
Bifang, an auspicious bird that heralds fire, possesses astonishing fire-controlling abilities!
Taotie, devouring all things, is infamous for its ferocity!
These are all the supreme legacies of a powerful race that dominated the ancient times!
Now, all of it has been gathered in this mountain treasure, and obtained by Shi Hao alone.
"I've made a fortune! I've made an incredible fortune!" Shi Hao's face flushed with excitement, and he couldn't wait to start cultivating right there.
However, when his attention fell on the last item—the seemingly ordinary Suanni beast skin that exuded a faint aura of thunder—his heart skipped a beat!
This animal hide...something's not right!
He learned from his memories of his past life that this Suanni beast skin was no ordinary object; it was actually branded with an extremely terrifying sword aura for protection.
That was left by the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass, one of the Ten Ancient Fiends, known as "a single blade of grass that can cut down the sun, moon and stars"!
Once this animal hide is forcibly opened, the supreme sword energy sealed within will instantly erupt!
Its power... is enough to cleave the sun, moon, and stars!
Let alone the fact that he is just a minor cultivator at the Seventh Heaven Cave, even if a Venerable or a Divine Fire Realm expert came, he would probably be instantly reduced to ashes!
Moreover, within the animal hide lies the complete inheritance of that supreme sword herb—the Nine Leaves Sword Technique!
"Hiss..." Shi Hao gasped, a few drops of cold sweat appearing on his forehead.
That was close! I almost fell for it!
This inheritance of the Supreme Hall is indeed not so easy to obtain; opportunities and crises coexist!
This thing is a ticking time bomb right now, incredibly powerful, but you can't touch it!
How to do?
Shi Hao immediately thought of his biggest backer.
He quickly picked up the seemingly dangerous-looking lion-like animal skin and respectfully approached the willow branch again:
"Willow Goddess, there's something else in this inheritance that seems very dangerous. I sense an extremely terrifying sword aura hidden within, and I dare not touch it carelessly! Could you help me take a look, or... seal it away for now?"
The Willow God's will had been watching Shi Hao closely, and naturally it noticed the abnormality of the animal skin.
When Shi Hao presented it, the will of the Willow God descended once more.
"Huh? It's... the scent left by that plant?"
A hint of surprise returned to Liu Shen's mind, as if she hadn't expected that the inheritance of one of the Ten Fiends was hidden in this Supreme Hall. "I didn't expect that even its inheritance would be left here... That's quite interesting."
The main emerald green willow branch gently brushed against the lion-shaped animal hide.
hum!
Something invisible and extremely sharp seemed to have been touched on the animal hide!
A terrifying sword intent, capable of severing countless ages, flashed by and made Shi Hao's soul tremble.
If it weren't for Liu Shen being here, even this slight leak of sword intent would have been enough to raze the entire Stone Village to the ground!
"It really is it." Liu Shen's tone remained calm, but Shi Hao could sense a hint of solemnity. "This sword energy contains an indestructible sword intent. In my current state, I cannot completely destroy it. I can only... temporarily set up a seal for you so that you won't accidentally trigger it."
As it spoke, the newly sprouted branches of the willow tree seemed to come alive, dancing rapidly and weaving together mysterious green runes that were full of life and the laws of the Great Dao!
These runes eventually coalesced into a complex and beautiful mark, which was slowly imprinted onto the Suanni beast hide.
The terrifying sword intent that was originally hidden but unseen was instantly and completely suppressed and isolated, and could no longer be felt at all.
"Alright, this seal is safe, but in the event of a life-or-death crisis, it might be able to draw upon a wisp of sword energy to protect its master. Remember, do not attempt to unseal it unless absolutely necessary; with your current strength, you cannot withstand it," Liu Shen cautioned.
"Thank you God Liu!"
Shi Hao was very grateful and carefully put away the sealed animal hide containing the supreme sword technique and life-saving trump card.
Then, Liu Shen's thoughts turned to the vast information inherited from the Supreme Hall.
"The inheritance of this Supreme Hall is extraordinary and has far-reaching implications," Willow God said slowly. "It seems to have a very deep connection with some ancient lineages in the Upper Realm. If you obtain this inheritance and go to the Upper Realm in the future, it will probably cause you a lot of trouble."
The Daoist lineage of the upper realm? Karmic troubles?
Upon hearing this, Shi Hao's face showed no worry whatsoever; instead, a confident smile appeared on his lips.
"Trouble? Let it come!"
"As long as I am strong enough, what can cause and effect, or tradition, do to me?"
"A strong fist is the only true measure of strength! If they dare to cause trouble, we'll fight them back!"
His words were simple and straightforward, yet full of fearless domineering spirit.
This, perhaps, is the kind of spirit that a being destined to dominate the ages should possess!
The Willow God seemed amused by his words, its branches swaying gently: "Hehe... Your temperament... is good. The path of cultivation should be one of courage and diligence, fearless of everything."
After speaking, Liu Shen fell silent again, continuing to digest the power brought by the Fountain of Immortality.
Shi Hao sat down cross-legged again. This time, his mind was completely immersed in the ocean of the Six Paths Reincarnation Heavenly Art and many supreme treasures!
