Chapter 145

Shi Hao's hands were shaking as he touched the blood-stained boulder. The desolate voice still echoed in his ears.

"We... are not people of sinful blood. Our ancestors... are still fighting there, sealing off the heaven and earth, cutting off their own retreat routes. They are still fighting bloody battles to guard the border."

The sad words seemed to come from a broken world, shouting and howling, with glory and even more tragedy.

For some reason, Shi Hao found himself shaking, his heart was resonating with the voice, and before he knew it, his face was covered with tears.

Finally, his hand left the boulder, the symbol on his forehead disappeared, and the light of imperial blood dissipated from the sky and disappeared.

He touched his cheek, where the tears were still there. Everything that had just happened was so real that he was infected by a wave of emotion.

Suddenly, Shi Hao's eyes focused, and he noticed that the Diguan star in the sky disappeared, and a huge beam of light fell from the sky, enveloping Shi Hao.

"What is this!" Shi Ling covered her mouth and looked at this scene in disbelief. She had heard from the guardian Zapdos that it could trigger the Imperial City to react autonomously.

What kind of powerful talent could make the Imperial City react like this!
"You, which tribe are you from? Why have I never heard of you before?" the old man asked tremblingly. He was so excited that his body was a little out of control.

"I am..." Just when Shi Hao wanted to say something, another beam of light descended, like a sharp sword, at an incredibly fast speed.

"This is a teleportation array." Shi Hao was a little surprised and didn't know who was coming.

"It's the guardian Zapdos who has arrived. He is your lord's mount and has an overview of everything in the imperial city. He is the person your lord trusts the most." At this time, Shi Ling walked to Shi Hao and explained to him.

After a pause, she continued, "I didn't expect you could actually make the Emperor's blood collapse into clouds."

There was some emotion and envy in her tone. She was naturally longing for this legend that had been passed down for a long time. In the past, she thought it was impossible and it was just a myth passed down by the older generation. She never thought it would really happen today.

“I’ve already said it, I can easily make the emperor’s blood collapse.” Shi Hao said arrogantly.

He was just that kind of person. Shi Ling had long been accustomed to him and ignored him. Instead, he looked at the light column and said, "Okay, stop being naughty. The Zapdos guardian is here."

At this moment, the beam of light had already descended on the ground, and the bright light illuminated the place. Shi Hao squinted slightly and saw a powerful figure appear in the beam of light.

"He is surrounded by the Dao, as if he has completely merged with the Dao. Such a person is actually just Uncle Feng Xi's mount!" Shi Hao was a little shocked. If such a person came with murderous intent at this moment, he would probably not be able to offer any resistance at all.

"Greetings, senior!"

Everyone in the square bowed slightly to show respect. They respected this senior who had been managing Zuizhou in recent years from the bottom of their hearts.

In fact, Zapdos has told them several times that they don't need to follow such etiquette, after all, it's just a mount, but the people of Sin State naturally won't do so.

Over the years, Zapdos has not only been in charge of the Imperial Pass, but has also been running around Sin State a lot, combing through the spiritual veins and dragon veins in various places, making the vitality of Sin State rise to a higher level.

In this situation, how can the people of Sin State not express their gratitude from the bottom of their hearts?

Zapdos was somewhat helpless about the crowd, but he did try to stop them several times, but to no avail, so he just let it go.

Coming to the Awakening Stone, Zapdos glanced at Shi Hao, nodded slightly, and said, "Which tribe are you from, my friend? The Emperor Blood is so powerful, it is somewhat similar to what the master said about the return of bloodline to the ancestral line."

Shi Hao felt that Zapdos's kind attitude was a bit of an illusion. His soul was powerful, and he could see at a glance the strong blood energy around this person. He originally thought that he was a person with a strong murderous intent.

As if seeing Shi Hao's surprise, the Zapdos smiled and said, "Don't be surprised, my friend. When I followed my master to conquer the world, I did kill many people and was tainted with murderous aura. I have been trying my best to calm it down over the years."

Seeing that his thoughts were seen through, Shi Hao smiled apologetically, clasped his fists and saluted, then said: "In reply to what you said, senior, I am from the Stone Clan."

"I've never seen the Stone Clan before. That's fine. In the Seven Kings Imperial City, anyone with the blood of the Seven Kings can join. Identity and background are not important." Zapdos said.

As a strong man in the realm of Void Dao, he could see Shi Hao's cultivation clearly. That strong cultivation foundation and solid realm accumulation made it obvious that he was not inferior to that of the first generation.

If such a person was in Zuizhou, people from other forces would not have allowed him to survive until now.

At this moment, the Zapdos has already discovered countless origins of Shi Hao. Either he left Zui State early and went to the outside world to practice, or he had already joined other large forces.

Zapdos didn't say anything. Even if Shi Hao really came from one of the major forces, he had to report the matter first. Feng Xi only asked him to be in charge, but did not tell him that he could make a judgment.

"You are also from the Stone Clan, so you can call yourself Huang!" Shi Ling on the side whispered.

Because of the extermination of the Stone Clan, the entire clan has become very scarce. Nowadays, the number of Stone Clan members in Sin State is far less than that of the other clans.

"When a person is traveling outside, he has many names and many paths. My real name is Shi Hao." Seeing the angry girl, Shi Hao couldn't help but smile.

He could sense that Shi Ling had been treating him as a friend these past few days, and it was not a good idea for him to hide this from her.

Shi Ling wrinkled her nose, blinked her cute big eyes, and said angrily: "Humph, I don't care, I will be called Huang from now on. Who told someone to leave me this name?"

Shi Hao laughed, not caring at all, spread his hands and said, "It's up to you, just say whatever comes to your mind."

"You..." Seeing that Shi Hao was so thick-skinned, Shi Ling stomped her feet and ran to the Zapdos to cry.

Seeing Shi Ling like this, even the Zapdos beside him chuckled. This girl was only twelve years old when she went to the Seven Kings Imperial City. Now, in the blink of an eye, she has grown up.

Looking at Shi Hao who was confused, Zapdos shook his head, what a naughty kid.

"Okay, I'll take you to God's City first!" After stopping the two people, Zapdos waved his hand, cast a large number of runes, and a blazing light descended, covering the three people.

Compared to the simple Imperial Pass in the past, it is much more prosperous now. This is mainly due to the Human King Spear and the Wheel of Samsara. They are used from time to time, making this place change drastically, and it has almost become a real Imperial City.

Soon, they came to the depths of the sky and saw a city!

“What I see... is it a city?” Shi Hao felt dizzy and a little dazed.

What on earth was he seeing? There was a gray haze at the end of the sky. Was that a building? It was so huge that it was hard to tell the difference between reality and illusion.

That gray area is connected to the sky and the earth, occupying all the space, rising beyond the domain, and lasting forever.

This city is too big. Only by using the Heavenly Eye and seeing through the origin can one see through and see clearly. It is a huge city, extremely vast, as high as the sky, and towering into the sky.

With ordinary eyes, one can only see a gray wall, connecting the sky and the earth, with no edge or limit. Coming here really makes people feel insignificant, because it is so vast.

Around the city, there are huge stars rotating one after another. Revolving around it, no one knows how many tens of thousands of miles this city is. It just sits on the sky, standing forever.

At a glance, it feels like you are in front of the beginning of the sky, feeling the grandeur and magnificence.

In fact, it's not just him. Even Shi Ling, who has already gotten used to it, would still be moved every time he sees the Imperial City, because it is so magnificent.

“The bricks and stones of that city look like…” Shi Hao was stunned.

"They are stars, stars from outside the domain that the Lord intercepted personally." Shi Ling explained softly.

In fact, let alone the two of them, even Zapdos only stopped being surprised every time it saw the Imperial City after it got completely accustomed to it.

Moreover, compared with the area of ​​the Imperial City, what is truly terrifying are the symbols on the city wall, which were created by two immortal weapons.

The three of them were getting closer and finally almost reached the land, but the closer they got to the city, the more insignificant they felt.

It's like an ant looking up at the sky, they are not even on the same order of magnitude!
Moreover, as he got closer, Shi Hao felt an overwhelming pressure that was hard to resist. It was as if there were a group of emperors standing on the city wall, overlooking the world.

"Don't look at it. That is the real symbol of immortality. Even I can't stand it if I look at it." Seeing that Shi Hao has been staring at Cheng Qiang, Zapdos reminded him.

Ever since my master broke through the level of "Zhanwo" a year ago, he went to Fengyun Sect alone, had a friendly exchange with the current sect master, retrieved the spear soul of the Human King Spear, and after allowing the soul and body to combine, the Human King Spear also returned to the realm of immortals.

Naturally, a large part of this city was built by the two weapons, so this city can almost be called the number one city in the world except for the original Imperial Pass.

"Uncle Feng Xi, how advanced have you become in your cultivation now? Have you become an immortal?" Shi Hao said to himself.

Unconsciously, he himself didn't even know that he actually had such a powerful backer in the upper realm.

After they arrived at the Imperial City, Shi Hao asked in a daze: "How do we get into the city?"

The city is too high, the gate is too heavy, who can push it open? Endless stars are inlaid on it, shining brightly on the huge gate!

Zapdos smiled gently, took out a piece of jade, and then urged his divine power to enter. The jade actually turned into a miniature altar, which was very small and simple, and emitted a faint luster.

hum!
This small altar was shaking, emitting a mysterious aura, and suspended in the air. It was only the size of a fist, but at this moment it held all three people on it.

Shi Hao was surprised that they had become smaller and were standing on the altar.

Chi!
A bright light shot up into the sky, and the three people were carried by the small altar, disappearing from here and sinking into the city.

When I appeared again, the sky and the earth were dark, and I could only see the surrounding scenery vaguely and dimly.

"here it is?"

This was a vast plain, with darkness and silence being the eternal themes. Apart from the three of them, there was no sign of life at all.

Hearing Shi Hao's question, Shi Ling shook his head and said, "I don't know either. I just heard from the guardian Zapdos that this city was built based on another city, almost one-to-one. Even the way to enter the city is similar, just to make the people of the Emperor Bloodline remember everything here."

Shi Hao's eyes glanced around and then became dim. Did the descendants of the Emperor's blood remember it?
There were many bones on the ground, which had long since become dull and withered.

At first glance, it was dark and boundless, and the land was scorched, as if it had been struck by lightning or had been set on fire.

An ancient battlefield?

Shi Hao thought of everything he saw when his bloodline awakened. Although he did not see the whole picture, he knew that Uncle Feng Xi must have had a deep meaning behind what he did.

“Let’s go. I’m just showing you this. This is the road that everyone who wants to enter the Imperial City must pass. Just remember it in your heart, because this place is just evolved by the master’s Taoist soldiers, in another world.” After Shi Hao finished looking around, the Zapdos took out another crystal stone and turned it into a small altar.

Another flash of light appeared, and the altar carried them quickly through many areas.

This area is so vast that it is impossible to tell how many miles it is. If an ordinary expert comes here, it would be like crossing the sky and it would be difficult to reach the end.

In fact, this is really not much different from crossing the universe. On the way, you can see star debris one after another, broken into pieces and appearing on the ground.

Here we are, near the giant city!
This is the inner city, and also the real core of the imperial city.

This city is very large, and like the outer city, it is built of stars. There are the sun and the moon across the sky, and many big stars are rumbling and floating outside the city.

Vast and boundless, the greatest city on earth!
At the very least, this is the largest city Shi Hao has seen so far, towering into the sky.

After coming here, everything changed. The city was really too big. Even after entering, Shi Hao felt like an ant entering the palace of the Emperor of Heaven. He could not see the real magnificent sights of the city.

Only when you open your third eye can you get a glimpse of a corner of the world.

In the void, there were chains of galaxies across the sky, all flowing in the city. There was also an imperial star that was rotating, casting down terrifying rays of light.

Even so, it was difficult to illuminate the entire city, and many places were in darkness with large shadows.

Shi Hao followed him and walked forward. He was shocked. There were big stars on the ground. These were not refined stars, but real stars with diameters of thousands or tens of thousands of miles.

Shi Hao was in a daze. Walking through the land where huge stars were spread out one after another, he felt a sense of desolation, a sense of primitiveness, and an invisible and majestic atmosphere.

Soon, Shi Hao saw some buildings floating in the air, accompanied by broken stars and destroyed galaxies.

Those buildings are huge, and it is obvious that they were built countless years ago. No one lives in them anymore.

"How about it? Are you shocked? Your Excellency's power is simply unimaginable. It only took a few years to build such a huge city from scratch."

Shi Ling found it very interesting to see that Shi Hao was completely stunned and no longer had his usual playful look.

Zapdos shook his head. This girl had completely forgotten what the Imperial City was like when she first arrived. At that time, the Imperial City was far inferior to what it is now.
