Chapter 795: Chapter 795: Sin and Glory
“Although there are many Sin Tribes, they are also ranked in importance.”
Since ancient times, it’s been established that thirty tribes, including the Shi Clan and Fire Nation, are recognized as the main descendants of Sinful Blood!
These secrets were revealed by the old man.
The Shi Clan is one of them, a tribe that cannot be pardoned, as if a pair of eyes lurks in the darkness, watching over them.
“Always talking about Sinful Blood, can it actually be identified?” Shi Hao asked.
From the past to the present, he often heard this term, felt emotionally touched, and expressed his doubts: how is this determined?
Stone Village is very small and desolate, with only about a hundred or two hundred people wearing old Beast Skin clothes, hardly resembling the descendants of ancient countries.
The old man sighed deeply and said, “Indeed, it is possible to detect it using certain sacred objects. During the test, people of this kind usually have a speck of light on their foreheads, and the powerful ones have Sinful Blood condensed on their foreheads, bright as a torch, while those with deep Sinful Blood even have a pattern of light coalescing on their foreheads, shining skyward.”
Upon hearing this, Shi Hao was quite astonished.
“Where could such sacred objects be found?” he asked, wanting to experience it for himself and find out what it’s all about.
“It can’t exactly be considered a sacred object; every race has one. After the Shi Clan was annihilated, there remains a huge stone in the ruins of the capital of Stone Country, located before the capital, which can be used for detection, and it should not have been taken away,” said the old man.
Because, for many people, that is not considered a treasure and is not of much use.
When the old man spoke these words, his eyes were lifeless, filled with sorrow.
Shi Hao stayed in the village for a substantial amount of time, earnestly asking many questions, leaving behind a pile of treasures, and then he left, heading straight for the ruins.
“Is he a young descendant of my Shi Clan? How much I hope for another remarkable prodigy to emerge, a master who shines through the ages and shocks the world, to wash away the shame of our clan!” The old man muttered to himself, his eyes brimming with murky tears, finally bursting into loud weeping and kneeling in the direction of the ancient country’s past.
Before long, Shi Hao came to the ruins again, and indeed, he saw a huge stone outside the capital that clearly stood out, ancient and vicissitudinous, streaked with mottled bloodlines.
This was not something painted on, but rather like natural bloodstains.
Shi Hao was dubious and reached out his hand.
As the old man had advised, he stirred his blood slightly and then waited quietly.
In an instant, his blood boiled tumultuously within him, like thunder striking, like a river surging; a symbol that was ancient and enigmatic swiftly congealed on his forehead, resplendent beyond compare.
This was not the pattern described by the old man, but rather it had transformed into a symbol, as if a Star River was rotating — complex, enigmatic, and mysterious, radiating brilliance.
Moreover, its glow continued to surge violently, as if it wouldn’t fade, until it finally pierced through the sky with a “whoosh,” illuminating the heavens and shattering the clouds!
“Heavens, what is that?”
In the distance, someone exclaimed, watching the sky in disbelief.
A beam of light broke into the firmament and actually lit up the region, eerie and inscrutable, full of a mysterious aura, accompanied by an odd fluctuation.
“That is… Sinful Blood condensed, capable of cloud-bursting, unprecedented!”
This spectacle shook all directions, and many major schools in Sin State detected it immediately.
“How could there be such powerful Sinful Blood Runes, with beams that pierce the vault of heaven, never before seen!”
Shock erupted throughout the lands.
Meanwhile, Shi Hao was stunned as he heard a desolate voice beside his ear; he didn’t know whether it was coming from the giant rock or the characters on his forehead.
“We… are not the Descendants of Sinful Blood. Our ancestors achieved remarkable glory… They have always been at the forefront of battle and continue to do so, writing brilliance with their blood and bones!”
The voice was sorrowful, desolate, and full of vicissitudes, making those who heard it almost shed tears.
Shi Hao stood motionless, his chest filled with such emotions that he felt one with the giant stone, and the characters on his forehead were more intense.
“We are not sinners… The blood that flows within us is not tainted; it is glorious, recording the achievements of the past.”
The grand voice echoed in Shi Hao’s ears, resonating in his heart.
In the distance, many were startled, for the light beam of Sinful Blood was too dazzling and incredulous.
“Who could this be, with Sinful Blood so intense? Has a true ancient fiend returned?!” someone whispered, squinting and shooting sharp looks.
“This is destined to alarm all the schools, to be spread across all the states!”
In the sky, a symbol appeared, sensed by someone using the Ancient Mirror of a school from across the endless Heaven and Earth, and a “Sin” character appeared on the mirror’s surface.
The appearance of a complete “Sin” character caused the one holding the mirror to gasp in shock!
“Sinful Blood forming a character, we must find this person!”
At once, an ancient existence issued a resounding decree, coming to a decision.
In Sin State, adjacent to the Ruins of Stone Country, some lineages could witness with their own eyes a symbol in the sky, emitting a brilliant light, like a sun.
Many were shocked and discussed among themselves, yet none dared to approach, fearing they would attract disaster upon themselves.
In the distant land’s end, a pair of grandparents and grandchildren passed by, sensing something and looking in that direction.
“Grandfather, is that the character for ‘sin’?”
“Yes, there is indeed such a person whose Sinful Blood condensed, reflecting the heavens, manifesting this character in the sky. In the past, some great fiends only showed patterns.”
“But Grandfather, you once told me that this character wasn’t ‘sin’ before; it represented glory.”
“Yes, what a pity. Now it represents sin, and its original meaning is no longer there.”
The two went on their way, disappearing over the horizon.
Shi Hao’s hand trembled as he touched the tear-stained giant rock; the desolate voice still echoed in his ears.
“We… are not people of Sinful Blood. Our ancestors are still there, battling, sealing off Heaven and Earth, cutting off their own retreat, they are still in a bloodied war, guarding the Wilderness Frontier.”
The melodramatic words seemed to come from a severed world, screaming and howling, filled with grandeur and yet a kind of tragic heroism.
For some reason, Shi Hao found himself shaking, his emotions resonating along as tears unknowingly filled his face.
Eventually, he took his hand away from the giant stone, the symbol on his forehead disappeared, and the light of Sinful Blood scattered across the sky, vanished from sight.
He wiped his cheek, where the tears still remained, everything just now felt so real, he was infected by a wave of emotions.
However, without any hesitation, he decisively took out the Void Halberd, and with a swish, tore open the void. Grasping the Battle Halberd in one arm, he fiercely leaped in.
The void closed, and silence was restored to the area.
Soon after, a figure thundered across the heavens, rapidly approaching and crashing down into the ruins with a roar, revealing itself to be a Celestial God.
He is a master who has arrived recently, the first to rush over.
Then, several figures broke through the sky, descending with a vast and overwhelming presence.
Not long after, there was even one person enveloped in chaotic mist, who descended from beyond the skies, looking down upon this place, silent for a long time.
“The Sinful Blood has taken form, the light emanating from the brow, branding the heavens, the unaware might think their ancestors have returned,” an ancient voice finally echoes here after a long time, without any emotional fluctuation, devoid of any feelings.
They left, without staying for long.
Afterward, several other groups of people arrived one after another, pausing here.
“The Sinful Blood has incinerated everything together, the light shining from the brow burns away all, indiscernible to the senses.”
A single “Sin” character, reflected in the vault of heaven, merely an extraordinary phenomenon, yet it alarmed all sides!
Shi Hao would not have thought that his recent actions would cause such a commotion, a massive undercurrent surging, with some people seeking him, trying to find him!
At this moment, he had long since left that place, standing on a low hill, lost in a daze.
God knows how much time had passed before he came back to his senses, muttering to himself: “I am not a Descendant of Sinful Blood!”
At this moment, he could still feel that sentiment, resonating with it, his ancestors were not criminals, but creators of a certain glory, still fighting at the forefront, shedding their blood.
A heart stirred with passion, a blood boiling with readiness for battle, giving Shi Hao a kind of realization, an epiphany of the moral path, ready to take another step forward.
“Am I about to reach the Venerable One’s grand completion?”
Shi Hao’s gaze was deep, he had already touched the threshold, soon to reach it, and now with his emotions fluctuating violently, he was about to make a breakthrough.
He did not continue, because a careless move might directly enter the Divine Fire Realm.
After advancing to the grand completion of the Venerable One, there would only be a paper-thin distance left, ready to break into the Divine Fire Realm at any moment.
He already had a plan, deciding to wait a few days, to seize a kind of Heaven and Earth Fortune, to purify his body, and then to accomplish grand completion, making himself stronger.
It was a long-standing plan, and he did not disrupt his rhythm due to the enlightenment at this moment.
No matter what, before entering Immortal Ancient, he must reach the grand completion of the Venerable One, to lift his combat power yet another notch, only then could he calmly face many enemies!
“Who dares to call us Descendants of Sinful Blood again, how are we guilty?!” Shi Hao felt indignant.
After calming down, he decided to take a trip to the Fire Nation, Huo Ling’er should be there, not knowing how she is now.
Heavenly Province, endlesly far from Sin State, spanning hundreds of states.
But even so, the events of today still made their way back, causing an upheaval among the upper echelons.
In fact, the convergence of the “Sin” character, casting a shadow across the sky, truly shook many schools, not just their clan.
However, only their clan vaguely guessed, knowing who it was!
“The Ruins of Shi Clan, it should be that kid, right?” A Celestial God’s eyes were cold.
Recently, they were utterly disgraced by a mere Venerable One, You Yu was slain, the Protector was defeated, and all the major roads were laughing at them.
Even under these circumstances, they had still not revealed Shi Hao’s true identity, because they were still unwilling, wanting to capture him alive, and obtain techniques like the Kun Peng’s by themselves.
“Let me divine, find out where he is!” The Protector appeared, with the tip of his broken horn just grown a bit, not yet fully restored, his withered face even grayer.
“Venerable One!” Some Celestials called out, extremely concerned, as such an act by the old man might consume his last years of life.
“Venerable One, you must not, Qi Daolin is a maniac, even if we really can find that kid, in the end, it will be a loss for us!” Celestial Mo Luo persuaded thus.
“Qi Daolin has entered the vast No-Man’s Land, the thing I will do will leave no traces, it is destiny for this child to perish young.” The Protector said calmly.
All were shocked, exchanging glances.
“Prepare a quiet room for me, I need to perform divination, to seize the Kun Peng technique and others, sending that calamitous fetus on his way.” The Protector’s gaze was chilling, his broken horn flashing a cold light.
Before long, the place was tranquil, all the Celestials had exited, silently waiting.
As time passed, their hearts were anxious, both hoping to acquire the Supreme Law, cutting off the calamitous fetus and also fearing Qi Daolin would perceive their actions.
“With the Protector making a move, he is doomed not to live, although outstanding, he will wither prematurely!”
“It’s better if he dies, otherwise despite his youth, he always makes me uneasy!”
A few Celestials whispered, waiting patiently.
Suddenly, they felt the void split open, a passage opening, followed by the sound of something heavy landing.
“Has the Venerable One succeeded, has he captured that monstrous beast?” They could hardly believe it.
The upper echelons of the Celestials stood up, overwhelmed with joy.
They felt as if someone had been thrown to the ground. Had it… really happened?
“Cough…”
The sound of coughing came, the runes inside the quiet room retracted, becoming perceptible.
Resulting in everyone’s faces changing color, they charged in.
“Venerable One!” They cried out.
The Protector lay on the ground, coughing up large mouthfuls of blood, his mouth full of bloody foam – not that he had captured someone, but that he had fallen to the ground himself.
“What happened?” Celestial Mo Luo and others were shocked, quickly helping to heal him.
But the blood flowing from the Protector’s mouth could not be stopped, continuing to pour out.
“Unable to divine.” He was confused and shocked, murmuring: “Gazing into the future, all is primal chaos, and when I look back, behind him is a void.”
“Venerable One, what are you saying?!”

“Are you referring to… that monstrous beast?!”
“It’s him.” The Protector, his mouth bleeding unstoppably as he declined, said with a shock: “He… seems to not belong to this whole section of ancient history!”
