Chapter 1758
This was completely different from what everyone imagined!
Ah...
That creature screamed out, breaking the peace. A rain of blood scattered down. It struggled intensely.
This was beyond everyone’s expectations. The deity was extremely miserable, a small half of its body gone, ending up in that lion’s bloody mouth, crushed with ga beng ga beng noises, directly swallowed.
The deity was in intense pain, ruined body contorting. The upper half was preserved. Its face was deathly pale, as if it saw a ghost, staring at the golden lion and Shi Hao.
With his strength, he had the power to fight even a true deity. However now, why did he suffer so miserably?
Before this, he had already thoroughly investigated the Little Stone. This was only a youngster in his twenties, so no matter how formidable he was, how heaven-defying could he be?
This deity felt like Shi hao shouldn’t be able to become a true deity. His age was too low, he didn’t have that foundation!
Becoming a deity was too hard, it wasn’t just all talk. Even if the Little Stone became a supreme expert early, it was definitely difficult to achieve the true deity level in ten years.
However, reality was cruel, appearing bloodily before his eyes, leaving this deity shocked!
He knew that the Little Stone’s cultivation far surpassed his imagination. Just his mount alone was already this terrifying, let alone the master. He shivered in fear.
“Did I see incorrectly? Just the Little Stone’s mount was enough to get rid of that deity?”
“Heavens! What am I seeing? It is just a lion, yet it ate half of that deity!”
...
When everyone snapped out of their daze, they all erupted into a commotion. Stone Country Capital immediately became chaotic.
“You...” There wasn’t a hint of color left on the deity’s face, incredibly pale. The upper half of his body struggled out. He really did escape from the mouth of a lion, now scared badly.
Where did this lion come from? It was too vicious, chewing on his body like it was sugar cane.
This was completely different from what he imagined. In his opinion, once he came here himself, even if the Little Stone was a monster, it would still be difficult for him to withstand him, the Little Stone would still be suppressed.
After all, the years were there. Just how many years had Shi Hao cultivated for?
“Where did this shrimp come from? Do you not know the rules? Where do you think you are? Did you forget your own status?” The golden lion shot it a look, its expression full of disdain.
Together with its snow-white teeth that still carried blood, it really did look vicious. That deity was shocked to the point where his entire body was shaking, scalp even becoming numb.
This was a deity! In the lower realms, it could be said to be at the top of the food chain, definitely a top level expert. However, in this place, he was called a shrimp, this was too humiliating!
This deity dared feel anger but didn’t dare speak out, the situation greater than the person. Right now, if it spoke viciously, this savage golden great lion might devour the other half of his body.
“Right, where did you come from?”
The golden lion shot it a look. It reached out a great claw, picking its teeth, getting rid of the bloody scraps, the scene extremely intimidating.
Forget about the owner of the ruined body, even the surrounding cultivators shivered, chills running down their entire bodies. This was definitely an extremely vicious beast.
The current golden lion, compared to before, was definitely more compromising.
Before, it was cold, and also of few words. The main reason was because it didn’t really accept Shi Hao.
Now, these words and this savage style proved that it was already at its wit’s end, already starting to get close to Shi Hao.
“I... came from the sea.” This deity said.
He was really scared, not daring to act wildly. He quickly told them where he was from the moment he was questioned.
Back then, even though the eight regions were chaotic, not all experts suffered.
There were some who hid in secret lands, escaping the calamity.
This ocean beast was precisely one of the survivors. At that time, he was secluded within certain ancient remains in the sea.
When he emerged later, he really felt blessed, incomparably happy. After the eight regions experienced great changes, he definitely obtained the qualifications to become an overlord of a region, difficult for others to withstand his power.
Shi Hao didn’t speak, just sitting on the golden lion, not moving at all, just watching it deal with this.
“Acting willfully in the seas is one thing, why did you run all the way over to Stone Country?” An old king from Stone Country asked.
Normally, even the lord of a country would be scared when facing a deity, not daring to provoke the other party, but today, it was different. The Young Human Emperor returned, even his mount able to act like this, open its mouth and devour deities, what else was there to be scared of?
“Someone invited me here.” This deity lowered his head, extremely cooperative.
When these words were spoken, some of Stone Country’s great clans’ faces paled from fear, because they were the ones involved.
Apart from the two powerful clans who had their kings crippled, there were some other clans that participated. There weren’t many, but they definitely had a set amount of influence.
Now, there was no way they could still act tough. Those families’ important figures all stepped out, shivering in fear, kneeling down.
“They were able to invite someone like you?” Shi Hao finally spoke up. He didn’t believe that normal people could invite out a deity.
It was the same as what the investigations revealed, it was Rain Clan who pulled the strings, invited this deity from the seas.
Back then, Rain Clan was dealt with quite severely by Shi Hao. They wanted to kill the Little Stone, but were instead beaten down. In the end, a group of people left for the sea, managing to contact the deity who left in the ancient times through some secret methods. Then, they got to know this deity out of coincidence. When an ancient deity cast down its projection, this deity gave it quite a bit of face.
Then, Rain Clan began to actively make moves, contacting some great clans in Stone Country, and thus, trouble began to stir.
Of course, the past Stone Country Emperor Clan’s direct descendants also had some ambition. When they were found, they happily agreed, wishing to get Qingfeng off the throne.
Their only source of apprehension was from the Zhuyan, because they heard that it had also become a deity.
However, when this ocean deity produced some true deity level magical artifacts from the ruins, they all became filled with confidence.
“Interesting, you are nothing more than a Divine Flame Realm creature, but after some toys, you became like a true deity.” The golden lion said.
He fished out some decorations from that individual’s body, for example, a bone hairpin, violet-gold crown, and other things, these things actually able to strengthen one’s magical force and dao comprehension, good stuff.
That deity felt endless pain inwardly as he watched the golden lion just take them like this. However, he didn’t dare budge an inch.
Shi Hao gave them a look. These things, when compared to the Azure Armor and Long Life Battle Clothes, were too far off.
“I’ll give you a chance. Capture everyone from Rain Clan, and I’ll leave you with your life.” Shi Hao said.
Of course, he couldn’t just let him go like this. With a raise of Shi Hao’s hand, this deity was given a few slaps, and then jabbed a few times as well, told that if he tried to run, the lion would act out sooner or later.
“Even if you die, your soul will forever be locked within a rotting body.” Shi Hao warned, having him quickly complete his task.
This deity quickly nodded, not daring to say too much, immediately dragging its ruined body out of here, treating his injuries while catching people.
He really was scared. That was definitely a murderous fiend, his cultivation immeasurable. He felt like it was likely a high level true deity, perhaps even a heavenly deity!
Stone Country Capital City, everyone saw what took place clearly. They all had expressions of adoration on their faces.
As for those families that were kneeling on the ground, they had long begun to shiver in fear, terrified to the extreme.
Shi Hao didn’t say anything, only raising his hand, continuously pointing out. Divine streaks of light flew out one after another, entering those people’s bodies.
Under pu pu sounds, many people’s cultivations were crippled, becoming mortals. They were originally the pillars of their clans, but now, they were directly ruined.
“When one does wrong, they will always have to pay the price in the end.” After saying this, he handed the following cleanup to Qingfeng, War King, and the others.
Earlier, many people thought that Stone Country might face a disaster soon, that they were about to decline, even the country perhaps erased.
It was because they felt that when it reached a deity level battle, even if it was a powerful country, they still weren’t enough, possibly being forcefully overthrown by a deity.
Yet everything ended completely differently.
The Little Stone returned. He was ridiculously powerful, suppressing the deity, overlooking Stone Country’s clans. When faced with this disaster, he just swept through it all in one go!
“Qingfeng, some of these clans are thankless wretches. Deal with them how they should be dealt with.” Shi Hao said.
He naturally felt anger. When he left back then, he attached great importance to some of these clans, bestowing enough benefits upon them. However, in the end, they were the first to jump out, rebelling.
Not a single one who was directly involved escaped, all of them crippled on the spot, forever unable to recover.
As for the remaining people, some of them had their cultivation crippled, some were sent to prison. That day, Stone Country shocked all sides.
A great disaster was suppressed just like that with the Little Stone’s return.
The so-called great chaos, before Shi Hao, wasn’t much at all.
When he decided to take action, it already signified that these clans were going to be pulled up by the roots, that they were finished.
News went out, leaving all sides shaken!
This was especially the case for Stone Country, all clans lowering their heads. Those from the borders clearly expressed that they wished to follow the young Stone Emperor.
That day, that deity returned, bringing some people back. They were all from Rain Clan, but unfortunately, there were some who weren’t brought back.
This deity’s expression was serious, bringing some news, he saw the projection of Rain Clan’s ancient figure, which was why he was anxious and frightened.
“Not a big deal. If he really dares step out, just call me over.” Shi Hao patted his shoulder.
After this event, Stone Country Capital City was bustling with activity. After the Little Stone’s return was verified, some great clans became extremely excited.
As for many of the ordinary civilians, they had also witnessed Shi Hao’s might back then. He had previously fought against some great clans, protecting this city, left with an extremely deep impression.
“Reporting, Princess Qianqian has come for a visit!”
That day, there were people who continuously came to make reports. They were all some old friends, when they learnt of Shi Hao’s return to the lower realms, they hurried over to Stone Country Capital.
That same day, there were bad news that came out. From the eastern region, there was a great downpour, the rain getting more and more heavy, as if it was a river pouring down from the heavens!
“En, Rain Clan? Their true deity has appeared, about to come out?” Shi Hao looked east, a cold smile appearing on the corner of his lips.
He really wanted to see where the creature who left in the ancient times was casting its projection from. Now that he was angered, he didn’t mind slaughtering his way into that realm to take a look.
