Rebirth as a Willow Tree, building the strongest tribe in all of eternity

Chapter 732: Chapter 504: Lottery and Nine Dragons Pulling Coffin_2

A cultivator in his twenties achieving the realm of Escape One, even in the ancient times, was considered a myth within a myth. Just one occurrence was enough to break the norm, marking it as a Glorious Era.

Yet, now there was a large barge of them, which was truly shocking.

If it weren’t for the recent cessation of the warfare on the frontier wilderness, the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands would have hardly found a respite, their peace bought at the cost of countless elders’ lives. They almost believed it was a golden age that only appears once in tens of thousands of years.

Firstly, there was that Huang who won countless battles in the frontier wilderness, and achieved the state of Escape One at a tender age, breaking all norms.

Just when everyone thought this might be the only myth to occur, several Great Demon Kings from Liu Village swam upstream against the tides and succeeded in achieving legendary status.

Even the Ten Crown King and the Banished Immortal were astounded.

However, they possessed invincible hearts, with unyielding faith. They did not consider themselves inferior to Shi Hao or Gu Chen, hence when they learned that several peers had successfully advanced into the realm of Escape One, they all chose to retreat into isolation to try and break through.

It wasn’t just them. At that time, some of the most extraordinary talents also chose to retreat into isolation for breakthroughs.

They were undying in their faith and reluctant to be outdone. All along their journey, they had shown infinite brilliance, dominating their era. Taking it as their goal to become Immortals, what was the point of vying for supremacy and striving for greatness in the world if they could not even access the Escape One realm?!

However, as all the young prodigies were retreating into isolation, many significant events took place in the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands.

It all started when Shi Hao began acting against the major powers that were targeting the Sin Continent, not long after he stepped into the Escape One realm.

Firstly, the Demon Sunflower Garden was turned upside down. The entire underground palace and treasure vault was seized, the old ancestors were all killed by Shi Hao, almost leading to the extermination of the entire force.

Next came Sword Valley, where its current self-claimed Sword King, the Sword Valley Master, was cut in half at the waist by Shi Hao using the Big Luo Sword Fetus. His internal organs were strewn all over the ground, a sight too gruesome to behold. The fate of the entire sect was even more tragic than that of the Demon Sunflower Garden.

And then…

…

…

The final one was Yuan Qing.

This man harbored deep-seated hatred against Shi Hao. A few years ago, he had just stepped into the Escape One state and his power was considered the strongest. However, he was almost slaughtered the instant he began to fight, and in the end, his body and spirit were completely extinguished.

Since Jiang Hui abolished the Immortal Palace ahead of time, the incident in the original work where the Incomplete Fairy emerges and kills Shi Hao with the Immortal Breaking Curse never happened.

Just when Jiang Hui thought he had twisted some of the chains of causality, something unexpected occurred.

In the Immortal Domain, a being of the True Immortal level descended upon the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands, met Shi Hao and admired his talent. This being wanted to take Shi Hao as a disciple, but Shi Hao naturally refused.

The two sides began a fierce battle.

Although Shi Hao was very strong, he was, unfortunately, no match for a being at the level of a True Immortal. What made Jiang Hui even more speechless was that the messenger from the Immortal Domain could also use the Immortal Banishing Curse of the Incomplete Fairy.

Out of curiosity, Jiang Hui threw a Surveillance Technique towards the opponent. But the feedback he received was quite surprising.

The opponent was actually a branch of the same school as the Incomplete Fairy coming from the same Taoist Orthodoxy, and they were even considered as senior and junior brothers.

After a series of turns, Shi Hao was still afflicted with the Immortal Breaking Curse.

Although some of Jiang Hui’s actions changed the course of certain events, he was still unable to change some things.

After all, if Shi Hao hadn’t been affected by the Immortal Breaking Curse, he wouldn’t have been able to understand the use of the third Supreme Bone so thoroughly. Moreover, that particular bone had a critically important role in Shi Hao’s future.

Moreover, with the presence of the Lord of the Forbidden Area, the Immortal Breaking Curse would only become a touchstone for Shi Hao’s trials, and along with Bird Grandpa and the Dark Cage, which is considered second in the world, it will finally break the curse that prohibits entry into the Supreme before reaching the age of five hundred.

Three supreme Rune Magics, Three Lifetimes Body, Three-Generations Bronze Coffin, three bronze houses on Kun Lun Mountain, three flower seeds…

In the grand scheme of things, some things seem to have been predestined.

You can’t reverse what you’re not strong enough to change.

Jiang Hui didn’t insist, he didn’t want to get too deeply involved with the main character in the first place. If he could influence some things, he would do it; if he couldn’t, that was fine too. He needed only to live his small life well, manage his little plot of land, and that would be enough.

Jiang Hui once considered developing Shi Hao as one of his adherents and quietly attempted to do so, but it didn’t work out.

Regardless of how grateful Shi Hao was to him, he wouldn’t generate a shred of Faith Value for him.

Shi Hao, who would become the future Emperor Huang Tian, the Unparalleled Heavenly Emperor who answered only to himself, would not show reverence to anyone else, nor would he regard anyone as his heart’s god.

Compared to Shi Hao, these Great Demon Kings from Liu Village were much more docile.

They had no choice. They had Jiang Hui, the Master of Liu Village, backing them and until now no one dared to provoke them.

But Jiang Hui was still counting on them to earn him experience points. Thus, he naturally wouldn’t let these bunnies live too comfortably. If Shi Hao could break the curse of not being able to enter the Supreme before the age of 500, then these bunnies of his from Liu Village can’t be left far behind.

Shi Hao had the Lord of the Forbidden Area, Bird Grandpa, and the world’s second-best Dark Cage to help him, these bunnies he will be the ceremonial guard for. None will be better than the other.

Of course, all of this is said in retrospect and is just a daily minor interlude.

…

Suddenly.

The news of Shi Hao falling under the Immortal Breaking Curse quickly swept through the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands, causing as much shock as when he first stepped into the realm of Escape One at the age of twenty-odd years.

Many people rejoiced, but just as many felt a sense of pity and sighed. The Immortal Breaking Curse was considered to be a malicious curse from ancient times, one that is said to leave even True Immortals bleeding and dying. When one is afflicted with this curse, their foundations would be compromised and become ordinary within a short span of time.
