Perfect World - Chapter 769 - Chapter 769: Chapter 769: Turmoil and Attention

Chapter 769: Chapter 769: Turmoil and Attention

Heavy rain pounded the ground, splashing up a layer of white mist, as thick electric arcs like metal pillars took root on the ground, propping up the firmament.

In the end, the electric arcs vanished, darkness restored, so pitch-black one could not see his own fingers.

Shi Hao turned around and melted into the dark world, vanishing from this grassland.

Because he knew that if he didn’t leave, it might become dangerous. Two Celestial Gods had entered the deepest parts of the grassland, and although they were far away, they would eventually hear the news.

Chaos was destined to engulf the grasslands, with the first Divine Mine of the Celestials Clan destroyed; the event was far from trivial and would severely damage the reputation of the imperial family.

Indeed, not long after, this place boiled with excitement. But all this had nothing to do with Shi Hao anymore, as he had extricated himself and left the vast grasslands.

The dark clouds dispersed, with dewdrops hanging on the blades of grass, shimmering with rainbow colors under the sun, as the rain stopped.

Fufeng City, located at the junction of three states, has a special position, with a constant stream of people, encompassing all three sects and nine schools, bustling and vibrant with various races.

Clearly, the news was quickly received here.

Whether it was the grasslands of Fire Province, Celestial Immortal State, or Kun Province, as soon as there was any slight disturbance, it would spread to this place at the first opportunity.

“Shocking news, just during the torrential downpour, Desolate made a move again, incarnating as the Grim Reaper, reaping the heads of a group of Celestials Clan’s strongmen, slaughtering in a bloodbath, and destroyed half of the Celestials Clan’s Divine Mines!”

As the dark clouds dispersed and clarity returned to the world, the situation on the grasslands was quickly known to all, stunning everyone. Desolate was too domineering, taking action decisively and fiercely.

“The Celestials Clan’s first Divine Mine was also destroyed, and together with it, three True Gods lay in a bloody demise, utterly annihilated!”

When this news came out, the entire Fufeng City was shocked; this was more sensational than any news before, causing everyone to be taken aback and speechless.

“Desolate, he killed True Gods? Am I hearing this right? And he killed three at once?!”

This kind of news felt surreal, almost absurd, because such achievements were beyond common sense. How did Desolate do it?

“Absolutely true. The Celestials Clan is now in turmoil. All the True Gods in that mining area are gathered, their murderous aura piercing the heavens, swearing to grind Desolate’s bones to dust!”

How could such achievements not shock the world? Some transport formations in Fufeng City lit up immediately; these feats were too extraordinary, and the descendants of some major clans reported back swiftly.

In a moment, this battle report spread in all directions, and soon it appeared on the desks of many schools, read seriously by some important people.

“Desolate, he became famous in one battle, not only stirring up the region near Five Elements State, but also alarming dozens of other states. It was impossible for him not to catch everyone’s attention.”

“The Celestials Clan is embarrassed this time, becoming the butt of the joke among many schools!”

“They’ve provoked a terrifying young demon king with immense potential, who could very likely become a serious problem for their clan in the future.”

On this day, a storm was brewing, causing a great stir in all directions. Many people were analyzing and discussing, believing Desolate to be formidable and that the Celestials Clan was really too passive this time.

Many schools were paying attention, as this region descended into chaos.

The Celestials Clan has stood for countless millennia, possessing its own glorious heritage, yet also many enemies. Naturally, they wouldn’t miss this opportunity to kick them while they’re down and mock them.

“Hmm, has the Celestials Clan truly declined? To be beaten helplessly by a young man, with three True Gods dead, while the opponent is merely a Venerable One. The clan has decayed.”

“Right, where is Desolate? He can come to join our school, we will protect you thoroughly, and once you grow up, we will support you in rooting out the line of Celestials!”

Without a doubt, as soon as Shi Hao appeared, he would be the center of attention; he had become the focus of this region, with everyone talking about him.

And even the major schools from afar were analyzing and closely watching.

Certainly, some wanted to recruit him, and this was no empty talk. They hoped to cultivate him so that one day, he could enter the arena for a great decisive battle against the Celestials Clan.

Shi Hao’s achievements were splendid, and his status as a Loose Cultivator piqued the interest of many schools!

Deep in the vast grasslands, nine million li away from Fufeng City, in a mining area, two Celestial Gods of the Celestials Clan roared in anger, shaking the earth and causing even the clouds in the sky to burst open.

Not long ago, they had mustered up an army, bringing some True Gods to pressure the Fire Nation and suppress several major clans from the Lower Realm, demanding that they hand over Desolate.

The imposing stance of the two Celestial Gods was clear; they were picking a fight, deliberately intimidating, suppressing, trying to coerce Shi Hao to come forward voluntarily.

However, how long had it been? Such a disaster had suddenly been reported from behind!

This was like a resounding slap to their faces, too crisp and clear.

Their clan’s Divine Mine was mostly destroyed, their masters suffered heavy losses, and it was all Desolate’s doing, who also admitted to abducting the “Immortal Seed.”

How could the two Celestial Gods bear such humiliation? Their actions now appeared to be a strategic mistake, not only failing to make Shi Hao submit, but also causing such disgrace.

“Do the two adults still wish to investigate?” In this mining area, several major clans also had their own experts, and someone asked in a tone that was neither salty nor bland.

Although clans like the Fire Nation didn’t have taboo figures like the old Celestials, they too had Celestial Gods and were not so weak that they couldn’t fight back. Having been bullied to this point, they naturally wouldn’t hold back any longer.

One of the Celestials Clan’s Celestial Gods felt humiliated, flung his sleeves, and turned to leave.

“Alright, fellow Daoists, you may also disperse now. There’s no need to crowd around for the spectacle. The Celestials Clan’s two adults have made a mistake,” someone spoke up.

This region held numerous divine mines controlled by various major doctrines, and many people came to watch. Hearing this remark, they all laughed.

“What is the Celestials Clan trying to do, accusing others baselessly, losing the poise that the imperial family should possess.”

“Shh, keep your voice down, otherwise the two Celestial Gods might block the entrance to your mining area to oppress your clan, and by then there won’t even be tears to cry.”

The crowd mocked, some Dao lineages were not afraid of the Celestials Clan and deliberately ridiculed them.

The two great Celestial Gods of the Celestials Clan did not wish to stay for a moment longer. Although they were powerful, they could not act recklessly. Should they truly dare to cause trouble, they would be denounced by various schools.

Their behavior had already been criticized, and the hostile schools were even adding insult to injury, engaging in mockery.

“We miscalculated, this kid is actually so audacious, daring to make a long-distance raid behind our lines, initiating a killing spree, and he has become even more powerful.”

One of the Celestial Gods had an ashen face, his eyes somber on the return journey. If Shi Hao continued to grow at this rate, he would inevitably become a calamity in the future.

“He must be eliminated!” another person spoke coldly.

The Celestials Clan left shamefaced, withdrawing from the mines areas belonging to the imperial family and other major clans, returning to the outer regions of the great plains.

In the end, these events reached Fufeng City, eliciting sighs from the people. This time the Celestials Clan had truly suffered a setback, being disgracefully defeated by a mere Venerable One.

The Celestial Immortal Academy, too, was far from peaceful.

Because of such a major event, all the students in the academy heard about it, causing a sensation. There was a lot of noise, and everyone was heatedly discussing it.

“I heard that the number one genius of the Celestials Clan, You Yu, has come. He’s right here in our academy. I wonder if he will go out to seek a decisive battle with Desolate.”

Desolate had proven his mettle and valiance, drawing attention from all sides, making many female students’ eyes shine with little stars and eliciting even more admiration from the male students.

A person daring to barge into the Celestials Clan’s stronghold alone and defeating a group of gods, what kind of valor must he possess, and how terrifying his combat power?

For the young people, this was the king among their peers, a War God worthy of admiration, instilling awe, and for some, worship.

Shi Hao arrived, causing an uproar. That guy from the shabby mountain gate had come down again?!

Many people were dumbfounded that he actually came here.

Little did they know, this infamous character in their eyes, who claimed he could easily beat up his seniors and bully his juniors, was the focus of their heated discussions, the real Desolate.

“He entered the academy, is this… a provocation?” A group of people was surprised, finding him truly bold.

Shi Hao was composed. He wanted to find Yue Chan. Upon entering that zone, from a distance, he saw several acquaintances: Yun Xi, You Yu, phoenix, and others were all present.

On the green grass by the lakeside, the elites of the great schools sat on the ground, discussing the Dao, while Yue Chan strummed a jade zither. The sound was pleasing, causing the surrounding plants to glow, the buds to grow rapidly, and then bloom, radiating light in all directions and attracting some birds to dance along.

When the melody ended, everyone praised it.

Then, the group freely exchanged thoughts.

“Sister Yun Xi is truly beautiful and serene, she evokes pity,” Yue Chan smiled, then, changing the subject, said, “The Desolate that’s causing so much talk outside seems to be related to sister Yun Xi. I’ve heard that he escorted you on a journey tens of thousands of miles long, clashing with the Zhan Tribe. Is that true?”

This matter was rumored outside, but the Celestials Clan sternly denied it, rebuking the rumors as troublemaking.

Everyone was taken aback, whether it was Mu Zixiao and Zuo Xiaodi from the Divine Cliff Academy, Feng Wu from the Celestial Immortal Academy, or the prominent individuals from other schools, they all showed surprise, as few dared to ask so directly in front of the Celestials Clan.

Yun Xi sighed softly, looking at Yue Chan.

…

Shi Hao saw this scene from a distance, did not go over, turned, and left, not wanting to join the commotion.

As if sensing something, both Yue Chan and Yun Xi looked in his direction, catching a glimpse of his retreating figure.

“Eh, why are you leaving, are you scared?”

At the academy’s gate, many people saw him leave and showed surprise.

In fact, just now, many had gone to send messages, informing various powerhouses that a disciple from the Supreme Dao Ground had taken the initiative to visit.

Shi Hao chuckled, unconcerned, knowing that his true identity was probably about to be exposed. What expressions would everyone have then?

“The six prodigies of the Celestials Clan have come, originally wanting to see them clash with him, but his departure would mean missing out on an exciting battle, even though it wouldn’t be as thrilling as Desolate’s battles.”

“The prodigies have arrived in succession, with some saying they wanted to scale the mountain to get an explanation.”

Shi Hao was surprised to hear this and smiled faintly, saying: “Really? I’ll wait for them at the Supreme Dao Ground. Whoever dares to challenge me at my mountain gate, I will crush them!”

With that said, he spread his sleeves wide and quickly departed, disappearing into the distance.

There was silence on the scene until he was out of sight, and then many cried out. The person from the small hill’s gate was really arrogant, daring to make such bold statements, too sharp indeed.

“Let’s go, quickly inform those people, weren’t they seeking an explanation? The ‘senior brother’ of the Supreme Dao Ground has spoken. He’s waiting there to face their challenge!”

Clearly, it was not going to be peaceful here anymore, causing a significant disturbance.

On his way, Shi Hao was calm, murmuring to himself: “If the six prodigies don’t come, so be it. If they dare to come, the Celestials Clan would probably be in pain!”
