Chapter 71 Disliked by both people and dogs
While Shi Zhao was in seclusion breaking through to the Inscription Realm, Shi Hao also obtained the exact locations of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion and the Deer Chasing Academy, and began heading towards their destination.
The journey is truly long, and the land is teeming with ferocious beasts and strange, savage birds. It is simply impossible for an ordinary person to travel hundreds of thousands of miles to get there.
People will never know that a child set out alone, traversing boundless primeval forests, crossing countless dangerous places, fighting countless battles, and moving forward in life-or-death struggles.
Shi Hao traveled for several months, covering 600,000 to 700,000 miles, enduring wind and rain along the way, and finally approached his destination, about to arrive at that legendary ancient pure land.
Butian Pavilion and Zhulu Academy are located in the same area and are not very far apart.
Of course, the so-called "not far" is only relative to the vast wilderness. In reality, the two are still 90,000 miles apart, which is enough to frighten many mortals. It is a terrifying number.
Shi Hao emerged from the desolate forest, his animal skin clothes tattered and worn, making him look almost like a little wild man, with a dark, furry ball-shaped creature perched on his head.
"It's closer to the Heaven-Mending Pavilion. Speaking of which, I have a talisman that seems to allow me to join the Heaven-Mending Pavilion directly and enjoy some benefits." He scratched his head and muttered to himself.
Soon after, he discovered that many people had come specifically for him.
It turns out that after asking Bird Master and Spirit Jade Master for directions in the Realm of the Void Gods, he was betrayed by those two old guys, so many people were waiting for him here.
Shi Hao was so angry that he ground his teeth.
Then he discovered that something seemed amiss: many important figures on this land were sending their descendants to the Heaven-Mending Pavilion.
For example, the youngest daughter of the emperor of an ancient kingdom, or the descendants of various ancient clans.
Furthermore, he learned that Shi Yi had also come.
"The Heaven-Mending Pavilion is opening its Holy Academy, and it is said that only the most outstanding talents can enter."
"The one with double pupils has arrived. That Shi Yi has great ambition; he bluntly stated that he wants to enter the Holy Academy for a visit."
"I heard that the baby from the Void God Realm is coming too. I wonder if the siblings will show up together. Who knows what exactly happened at the Heaven Mending Pavilion?"
Shi Hao's big eyes rolled around, and he used the only minor supernatural power he had learned from Maoqiu, a transformation technique that could change his own bones, appearance, and so on.
After learning that many people were waiting for him, he decided not to use the talisman. Instead, he planned to blend into the crowd, pass the test, and sneak into the Heaven-Mending Pavilion.
After Shi Zhao stabilized his cultivation, it wasn't long before he learned about what had happened at the Heaven-Mending Pavilion in the Void God Realm. The news spread very quickly, and many blessed lands and grotto-heavens knew about it.
"Hmm, Yi'er has gone to the Ancient Holy Academy. I wonder what impact my big commotion back then had on him. Demon Spirit Lake should be able to withstand the storm."
Before leaving, she taught Shi Yi a cutting technique: if he really pressed for answers, he should say he was coerced, and that she had something on him.
After all, upon closer examination, it's hard for anyone to believe that their relationship is still good.
Within the ancient sacred academy, there are not only numerous insights and imprints of past sages, but also incredible sky-mending techniques, and an ancient woman with double pupils.
Without a doubt, this was a great stroke of luck for Shi Yi.
However, with gains come losses. Cultivation emphasizes physical and mental refinement. Avoiding some detours is like missing a part of the process, which is not necessarily all good.
But ultimately, the most important thing is the person himself.
At the same time, Shi Zhao also learned about the good deeds of her other younger brother, and couldn't help but put her hand to her forehead, her fair face full of helplessness.
"Sure enough, without me watching over him, Xiao Hao completely revealed his true nature."
Look at the mess he's made! First, he dug up the precious bone, destroyed the recruitment and trial grounds of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion, then beat someone into a "prominent figure," and even stole a rare treasure that could potentially transform into a sacred medicine. Not to mention his countless crimes, he is certainly deserving of great hatred.
Before even entering the Heaven-Mending Pavilion, he had already become a wanted criminal in the Pure Land.
With his quick wit, he was sure he could infiltrate the Heaven-Mending Pavilion, but what happened there afterward was difficult for outsiders to know.
However, one thing is certain: this kid will definitely not "turn over a new leaf".
At his age, he's at the most disliked and unwanted stage. He finally gets to go out and have fun, but with no one around to keep him in check, it's impossible for him to behave himself.
As Shi Zhao had predicted, things turned out exactly as he had.
Shi Hao mingled among the ordinary disciples and taught the arrogant and domineering geniuses a lesson. He was self-taught and deeply understood the art of playing dumb to fool others.
Furthermore, he either instigated Maoqiu to steal the elder's elixir or secretly sneaked into the place where the Heaven-Mending Pavilion was located to worship the spirits, which resulted in him provoking an ancient supernatural being, being haunted by the Ghost Lord, and being forced to retrieve the sword that the Ghost Lord had left behind in the Hundred Broken Mountains in ancient times.
In a sense, this can be considered "karma in this life".
The Hundred Broken Mountains, a place where ancient saints shed tears and shed blood, have now evolved into a treasure land full of opportunities.
Entering it might grant you the inheritance of saints, or you might discover sacred medicines. At the very least, it's filled with spiritual herbs, but it only opens once every few hundred years.
Each time it is opened, even the cubs of pure-blooded ferocious beasts will enter it.
Those who entered hundreds of years ago have now become powerful figures in their respective regions. For example, the Emperor of Shi Kingdom rose to prominence from there and eventually ruled over a vast empire.
"Willow God, please unleash your divine power and grant me a ride! I beg you!"
Shi Zhao calculated the time and realized that Hundred Broken Mountains would be opening soon, so he asked Liu Shen to open a teleportation channel and send her directly to the capital of the Shi Kingdom.
It's impossible to rush; there's no need to waste time rushing.
The Willow God readily agreed; for Him, it was merely a small favor, not worth mentioning.
It's just that some little believer isn't devout at all, which makes Him feel helpless and amused.
Five branches swayed, and a burst of blazing runes appeared, piercing through the void and opening a glowing green passage.
Shi Zhao clasped his hands together, preparing to thank the Willow God, when he was startled to find that his waist was entangled by willow branches, and his face immediately showed surprise.
"..."
She then gave up struggling and was thrown into the passage by the willow branch. She could still see the branch dancing and swaying with brilliant light, as if it were waving goodbye.
When Shi Zhao opened his eyes again, he had already arrived near the capital of the Shi Kingdom.
The green passage had become blurred, and the rain of light had quietly disappeared.
"Hoo~" She exhaled a breath of air from the Great Wilderness.
Since advancing to the Inscription Realm, he has been diligently cultivating for several months, either refining his realm and cultivation or studying runes and magical techniques. He has been working tirelessly without ever slacking off.
There was so much to learn and cultivate, even she felt immense pressure.
Now that I've left the Great Wilderness, my cultivation level has subtly loosened, and I've even reached perfection.
At fifteen years old, he was nearing the peak of the Inscription Realm, comparable to a so-called king or noble.
The girl raised her head slightly, a smile playing on her lips, her spirits high.
