Asura Emperor Venerable
Chapter 464 Soul Entry!

Chapter 464: Chapter 464 Soul Entry!

However, Shi Hao was not opposed to the idea at all.

For the sake of being the strongest, what’s risking a little danger?

Moreover, he was full of confidence, with a will as firm as iron, one that could never possibly collapse.

Bring it on!

Boom, he had already plunged into the Sun, but his soul was wrapped in a force that prevented it from being burnt to ashes.

At that moment, Shi Hao could be certain that the Spiritual Artifact he had acquired was definitely an object from the Immortal Realm.

This was no doubt an Immortal Artifact!

Otherwise, what kind of Spiritual Artifact from the Mortal World could withstand the scorching heat of the Sun’s flames, and even from such a distance, still guard his soul?

No wonder Yue Ying was so prideful, letting a Mortal like him become the master of an Immortal Artifact was indeed an understatement.

With just that thought, Shi Hao put the matter out of his mind.

He devoted his whole heart and mind to comprehending the True Sun Fire, to truly form the Sun Dharma Aspect.

Even with Yue Ying’s protection, Shi Hao still felt his soul being scorched, the discomfort was indescribable.

But he had no thoughts of retreating. Instead, he observed the structure within the Sun, feeling the terrifying flames.

He saw that within the Sun, there were endless Runes pulsating, dense and numerous, and even, the Runes formed strings that flowed in an extremely orderly fashion.

Could that be the rules?

The foundation of the rules is Runes; countless Runes make up the rules, and the variety of Runes, even the different ways they are combined, result in completely different rules.

A realization dawned on Shi Hao.

He greedily observed these Runes and the ways they were combined, simulating and evolving them.

However, there were too many Runes, and even though Shi Hao didn’t need to understand them, just merely imitating them was incredibly taxing on his Soul Power, which depleted drastically.

Fortunately, his Sea of Suffering had evolved into the Soul Sea, providing him with powerful support of Soul Force; otherwise, he would never have been able to persist and would certainly have fainted due to exhaustion of Soul Power.

"Although I’m protecting my master, your soul is too fragile. If you stay here too long, your soul will incur irreversible damage. Therefore, you have at most five days. You must return," Yue Ying’s voice sounded.

Shi Hao didn’t respond. He had to race against time, not even willing to waste a moment’s distraction on a reply.

Yue Ying pursed her lips slightly. Though she was slightly dissatisfied, her appreciation for Shi Hao was greater.

Generally speaking, those who could ascend to the position of an Almighty in the Immortal Realm, known as old monsters, were usually as obsessively focused as Shi Hao.

In a flash, five days had passed.

Yue Ying forcibly activated her power and yanked Shi Hao back.

Boom!

Shi Hao’s body shook, and his soul returned to its place.

Upon leaving, there was at least a seven-day gap, and staying out of body for too long, there arose a sense of estrangement from his body, making it feel somewhat incompatible.

He adjusted for a bit, and then he grew accustomed to it.

He closed his eyes, and within his Soul Sea, he dismantled the previously formed Sun Dharma Aspect and began rebuilding it anew.

Days passed, and Shi Hao had completely lost track of time, sculpting his Dharma appearance like a Stone Person.

This place was not devoid of visitors, but there were many who came to the mountains for cultivation. Unless there was a conflict of interest, apart from the bored and pampered rich heirs, who would go out of their way to bother him?

And really, what business do dandies have at the mountain peak?

Thus, half a year flew by, and Shi Hao had remained undisturbed, but as a result, he had gained a bit of a reputation. Many people in the city knew there was a fool who sat on the mountain top all day long, lost in contemplation.

...

"Young Master Shen, since we have come here, why not take a look at the peak? It’s said that a fool has been sitting there for half a year," halfway up the mountain, four young men walked side by side, but three of them were clearly half a step behind, highlighting the man dressed in green.

This man was none other than Young Master Shen Houping of the Shen Family—a typical dandy from a prominent family in the city. Shen Houping’s sister had married the legitimate young master of the Guan Family from Qingmen City.

What was the Guan Family?

They had an Almighty from Founding King Court seated in power!

Therefore, by comparison, the Shen Family was merely a clan of Self-Observation; the marriage was certainly the Shen Family punching above its weight.

But, as a result, the status of the Shen Family in the city had also risen a notch, with the air of the city’s foremost prosperous family. And thus, Young Master Shen Houping became even more arrogant—bullying both men and women, committing all kinds of wicked deeds, sure that no one would dare to do anything to him.

"What’s so interesting about an idiot?" Shen Houping showed no interest at all.

"Since he’s just an idiot, it wouldn’t matter if we played with him a bit," one of his flatterers suggested.

Shen Houping was still disinterested; he preferred beauties, though he was dissolute, he didn’t just step on anyone—surely they had to be from a notable family, right?

"Young Master Shen, we have nothing better to do, why not go take a look?" Another one of his sycophantic friends encouraged him.

Unable to withstand the persuasion of the three, Shen Houping nodded and said, "Fine, let’s go have a look."

The four of them continued climbing the mountain. Although they were all spoiled sons of riches, relying on their family’s resources and possessing some innate talent themselves, each had cultivated to the Soul Nurturing realm, and in truth, their strength was not weak.

Climbing a mountain was certainly not a challenge for them, and in little time, they reached the peak.

As expected, they saw someone sitting by the edge of the cliff, head tilted up slightly, gazing at the sky as if carved from stone, without the slightest movement.

Shen Houping only glanced once, and an expression of boredom emerged on his face.

"Climbed all this way just to look at such a person?" He seemed extremely displeased. Waving his hand, he ordered, "Throw him down the mountain for me!"

Hiss!

The other three dandies were all stunned. Although they were arrogant and had even killed people before, those were situations where someone had offended them.

This kind of act, where there was not even the slightest connection and immediate intent to kill someone, was something they had never done before.

However, it seemed like it could be fun—they had never tried throwing someone from the top of a mountain.

"I’ll do it." A young man in green immediately volunteered, stepped behind Shi Hao, and kicked him hard.

Bang!

The kick landed on Shi Hao’s back, but not only did Shi Hao not fly off, the kicker himself started to moan and groan, clutching his foot.

It hurt, it hurt, it hurt.

The remaining three were astonished—perhaps this fellow had grown into the mountain, for they couldn’t kick him off, and even their feet hurt from the attempt.

Shen Houping grew interested and said, "Let’s have a contest to see who can throw him down the mountain."

With that said, he began scouting around, quickly returning with a stone pillar in hand.

It must have weighed tens of thousands of pounds, but naturally, it could be easily lifted at the Soul Nurturing realm.

The other three also smiled and went to look for tools, returning shortly afterward, although the young man in green still occasionally grimaced. The kick he had delivered with great force seemed to have almost fractured his toe bones.

Feeling spiteful, he thought it would be best to be the one to throw Shi Hao down the mountain himself; that way, he would get his revenge.
