Perfect World Chapter 1806

Chapter 1806 - Thoughts Too Deep

s.h.i.+ Hao released a light sigh. In the end, out of helplessness, he sought out the restricted region lord.

Originally, he was extremely prideful, hoping to break through this bottleneck by himself, to advance boldly, truly rise up amidst the impossible. However now, he went to seek guidance.

He didn’t understand. Why was it that even though he was so powerful, his dao skills mastery profound, practically unmatched under the heavens in the Self Release Realm, that he just couldn’t take that crucial step?

The restricted region lord was astounded, not saying anything for a long time. It was because even he was a bit stunned. This youngster wanted to break into the supreme being level in such a short amount of time?

Did Huang know that forget about this great era, even if it was Immortal Ancient Great Era, there were no supreme beings under five hundred years of age? It was something that needed the tempering of time, the baptism of years.

“You are too impatient.”

The restricted region lord could only release a light sigh. He didn’t dare compare himself to him, because being compared to this youngster who was only in his thirties, yet already wanted to become a supreme being, it really did deal a great mental blow.

“How can I not be impatient? The higher realm’s great war rages incessantly, who knows when it’ll be completely corroded by darkness matter? I have to rise up in the shortest amount of time!” s.h.i.+ Hao’s att.i.tude was firm.

“Then do you know that in this world, there has never been a supreme being under five hundred years of age? At the very least, there hasn’t been any in the past great era or two!” The restricted region lord said.

s.h.i.+ Hao became speechless. Could it be that what he was asking for was too much? He couldn’t help but ask, “There really aren’t any?”

The restricted region lord didn’t say anything. Was this fella mocking his predecessors?

“Why aren’t there any?” s.h.i.+ Hao asked in confusion.

“There were indeed people who achieved Self Release Realm’s peak at a young age, but just like you, they immediately came to a stop here, difficult to advance further. Only after a period of time did they advance further. The main reason, is that if one wishes to become a supreme being, the amount of experience needed is too much. What is needed is not only the acc.u.mulation of power, there is also the acc.u.mulation of magical force, even more so the tempering of the mind.” The restricted region lord explained.

“Can you give me more concrete advice on what to do?” s.h.i.+ Hao was a bit anxious, just feeling like time didn’t wait for him, that he didn’t have much time left. If he didn’t rush into the heavens soon, be on equal footing with those great ones, then he might not have a chance anymore.

“If you want to enter the Supreme Being Realm, you need to experience the hundred faces of life, struggle in the great world of mortals, continuously temper the mind. In the end, when your heart is freed, when the shackles are released, you will stand at the peak of Mortal Dao, become a supreme being.” The restricted region lord said.

“I need to experience the hundred faces of the mortal world?” s.h.i.+ Hao’s brows furrowed tightly. He felt like this was extremely troublesome, that it would take an extremely long amount of time.

Even though he knew that tempering the heart was essential, a process he couldn’t avoid, he still felt like there wasn’t enough time.

The restricted region lord said, “On the path of cultivation, there will always be some checkpoints that are a bit special, needing all types of harsh conditions to unlock, only then could they be truly pa.s.sed. As the final level of the Mortal Dao, it is naturally difficult to cross.”

“Then why why can the creatures of darkness overlook the refining of the mind, directly break through when enough power is acc.u.mulated, blood pure enough?” s.h.i.+ Hao mentioned those creatures.

During these past few years, he carefully and cautiously came into contact with the blood of darkness, but he didn’t truly immerse himself in it.

At the same time, he forged another body, also adapting to darkness blood bit by bit, not directly merging with it.

“Those creatures only have strength, they are slave soldiers, unable to truly develop. Their so-called Supreme Being Realm advancement is still only in terms of power, an unrealistic mirage, cannot be treated as the real deal. Only the seeds of darkness, those special heaven’s chosen, they are a bit different, able to advance. However, if one deeply examines this, there is great terror behind this!” For the restricted region lord to say this, it was clear that there were some things he hadn’t explained fully.

“I will go and temper the heart!”

s.h.i.+ Hao left, sometimes remaining in the lower realms, sometimes heading to the three thousand provinces, his figure appearing in both places.

In the following decade of time, he continuously spent his days in the world of mortals, spending some time as a strict teacher, as a mulberry tree picker, a pasture master, even spending some time as a beggar…

s.h.i.+ Hao let everything go, experiencing all types of things, spending his days in the roiling world of mortals, completely immersing himself in this domain, experiencing the different faces of life.

Ten years later, he returned again.

Unfortunately, he still failed, unable to advance.

“Temper the mind further!”

After several months of reflection, s.h.i.+ Hao set out again, no longer cultivating, instead wandering from place to place, visiting famous mountains and great rivers.

During this process, even though he wanted to cultivate the dao, he let everything go, no longer touching it. He just experienced the rise and fall of the mortal world just like that.

Unfortunately, after another decade, when he returned again, he was still unable to become a supreme being.

s.h.i.+ Hao sighed, unable to calm down. He visited the restricted region lord again.

“You have things preoccupying your mind, moreover, they are too deep, always wanting to become a supreme being, desiring to break through. The more it is like this, the harder it is to break through.” The restricted region lord shook his head.

s.h.i.+ Hao became silent. This was precisely what he wanted, to become a supreme being, quickly soar into the heavens, so how could he just let it go?

“Moreover, you are thinking about quite a few things, wis.h.i.+ng to head to the other side and rescue people, to change the battle situation of the future, these thoughts are too deep. This checkpoint, how can you cross it?”

“I’ll cross it even if I can’t cross it!” s.h.i.+ Hao clenched his teeth.

“In this type of situation, you can already be considered to have gone mad. In my opinion, you might as well cut off your path, leave the world of cultivators, return to the world of mortals.” The restricted region lord actually spoke these words.

Moreover, his voice became extremely grand, dignified and sacred, as if there was a great hammer brought down.

s.h.i.+ Hao became quiet, his face warping. He clenched his fists tightly, expression changing continuously.

Only after a long time did he calm down. He gave the restricted region lord a deep bow, saying, “Many thanks for senior’s warning, to remind me to change my ways.”

s.h.i.+ Hao left, walking extremely slowly, directly disappearing. He returned to Desolate Region, to Stone Village. From that day forth, he gradually forgot about cultivation, no longer thinking about it.

This type of state was extremely strange. He wanted to forget about the methods of cultivation, many secret methods and other things becoming vague, all left far away.

This time, it wasn’t forcefully stopping his cultivation, but rather carrying a type of internal self baptism, wandering between the border of giving up and gaining, freeing the self. In the end, he threw everything aside, temporarily freeing himself from the world of mortals.

“Child, so many years have pa.s.sed, is there anything you can’t let go? Are your thoughts still so deep? Me and your father truly wish for an heir!”

Qin Yining spoke up, bringing up old matters again.

“Is that so? Turns out my thoughts were actually this deep, even in the topic of marriage and children, I still haven’t let it go, full of misgivings.” s.h.i.+ Hao released a light sigh.

In the end, he suddenly raised his head, his eyes extremely bright, and also extremely clear, as if he realized some things. “I, can get married.”

s.h.i.+ Ziling and Qin Yining were stunned, and then they became overjoyed.

After all these years, they already acknowledged Yun Xi. That beautiful and aloof Celestial Clan youngster followed him down into the lower realms, not abandoning s.h.i.+ Hao even when he was being ruined. In the past, she said she would take care of s.h.i.+ Hao, and now, she truly never left all this time.

Stone Village was full of a festive mood. When news traveled out, the old clan chief s.h.i.+ Yunfeng and the others were so happy they couldn’t conceal their joy, as if they were celebrating a festival. All types of cheers of happiness and laughter sounded.

Now, many of the children had already grown up, already taking wives and giving birth. Quite a few people always wanted s.h.i.+ Hao to leave behind some heirs, now, this was finally going to happen.

“Yun Xi, is she willing?” s.h.i.+ Hao asked his mother. He didn’t want to force the other party.

“That child’s heart is something I understand. She is willing, or else she wouldn’t have stayed here all this time. When your body suffered a great problem, she still followed you into the lower realms.” Qin Yining replied.

s.h.i.+ Hao became silent, nodding.

There were some things that left him feeling helpless, but he still had to make a choice.

He stared into the distance. Could he wait a great era of time? As time pa.s.sed by, would that figure under the Fire Mulberry Trees still remain?

After a light sigh, it was as if he could see over hills and dales, the blooming Fire Mulberry Flowers, sparkling flower petals dancing in the air.
