With a soft sound, a fissure appeared in Xiao Shi's Brow Center.
This glimmer of hope startled him. The divine energy within his body surged like a sea, causing him to halt his running.
"Open… up!"
Xiao Shi clenched his fists, gritting his teeth as he uttered those two words, and channeled all his strength for a second attempt.
"Boom!"
The Brow Center was finally broken through. Suddenly, Xiao Shi felt a lightness in his brow. A sense of indescribable ease washed over him, as if an invisible shackle had been broken. Everything in the world changed in his eyes; he saw things he had never seen before.
The changes in his body compelled Xiao Shi to close his eyes, feeling the changes in his Brow Center. The acupoint had vanished, replaced by a Light Gate.
This Light Gate was unlike the others. Instead of chaotic energy, it surged with three-colored light, and held some memories. Though not many, he realized he knew his own name! "My name is Xiao Shi… it seems I have no family!"
Boom!
At this moment, all 365 Light Gates in Xiao Shi's body lit up. Veins connected like radiant lines, linking all the gates. A brilliant Human Body Celestial Map emerged from his body, mysterious, ancient, and yet it illuminated the world!
Whirr!
Invisible, immense power flowed from the ethereal Celestial Map. The 365 light spheres on it resembled 365 ancient worlds. Their appearance alone shook the heavens and earth!
Xiao Shi, or perhaps Emperor Xiao Shi, although he only remembered his name, knew he was still in danger.
However, the Great Peng Bird remained still, staring in confusion at the child, who seemed to be surrounded by countless worlds, like an ancient Deity. It felt a sense of impending doom, as if it would be instantly annihilated the moment it dared to move!
"Whether you are a Deity reincarnate or just putting on an act, you are still weak. I don't believe you can…"
Pshhh!
A horrifying, world-shocking aura suddenly burst forth from Xiao Shi's Brow Center. Sword Qi, like a rainbow, stretched for tens of thousands of meters, its killing intent surging like a raging ocean, vast and boundless!
At this moment, the Great Peng Bird revealed a look of despair, unable to move. It was utterly stunned. That Sword Qi was endless; merely passing through was enough to tear the world apart, revealing a bottomless black hole.
The sword light was like eternity, slicing through time and space, carrying an immeasurable amount of killing intent. Just its aura caused the Stars in the sky to tremble, and a great pressure enveloped the Great Wilderness for hundreds of thousands of miles.
"Pfft!"
The Great Peng Bird didn't even have a chance to react before it exploded directly, leaving no bones behind. Before the world-destroying energy could even arrive, it turned to dust and vanished from this world, without even a ripple.
Xiao Shi blinked, a bit stunned, unable to understand how his body could still emit sword light, and such an excessively powerful sword light at that.
"Why can't I control it..."
"Boom!"
In the distance, the sky that was sliced open by the sword qi suddenly lit up with streaks of shooting stars, leaving Xiao Shi completely dumbfounded. In that area of the sky, four small Stars fell, landing deep within the Great Wilderness and creating a shockwave that spread for hundreds of thousands of miles!
"It can even cut down Stars... Run!~"
Although he couldn't figure out what level of power it was, he understood that if he took even one hit from that world-destroying shockwave, he would be finished!
"What the hell is this thing? Not only does it make such a huge commotion, but it also makes me run away. It's practically killing me!" Xiao Shi was furious.
Boom!
The sounds in the heavens and earth never ceased. The endless shockwave was like a force of destruction, unstoppable. Wherever it passed, the earth was overturned, and the forests were destroyed, shocking everyone!
"Has a divine object been born?" In that Great Wilderness, a peerless ferocious beast was stirred. Its terrifying body stood in the sky, gazing at the location where the Stars had fallen.
"A ten-thousand-foot sword light suddenly appeared before, splitting the heavens and earth. Could it be that a legendary treasure is about to appear?"
Xiao Shi ran with all his might, feeling a sense of danger constantly looming over him, making him uneasy. Even after running dozens of miles, that sense of danger hadn't dissipated, but instead grew stronger!
"What exactly is it? It seems to have appeared after the Human Body Celestial Map was revealed. Am I being secretly watched by someone?"
Xiao Shi was puzzled, but now he had inexhaustible power.
The appearance of the Human Body Celestial Map made him feel comfortable all over. Every pore on his body was constantly absorbing the essence of the world, strengthening the divine energy within him.
"Boom!"
The sudden thunderclap made Xiao Shi raise his head. The crisis had finally arrived. The only thing he didn't understand was why lightning was about to strike him.
"Boom!"
The sky above Xiao Shi suddenly changed. Vast clouds gathered, and lightning snakes danced wildly, thunder echoing through the heavens.
"I only took about twenty bird eggs! I didn't take yours, so why are you striking me!"
Xiao Shi stood with his hands on his hips, cursing at the sky. He had never heard of being struck by lightning for taking bird eggs. In his memory, only Shi Yunfeng mentioned in his stories that doing bad things would lead to being struck by lightning.
But apart from taking bird eggs, he didn't seem to have done anything else!
Boom
Lightning raged, descending wildly. It seemed as if some will in the darkness was angered by his cursing.
"Oh, my gosh!"
Xiao Shi yelped, sprinting away frantically. But the lightning seemed to have targeted him, relentlessly chasing him. Wherever he ran, the lightning followed.
Rumble
Bolts of lightning, more than a meter thick, continuously pursued and struck him.
"Ouch… that hurts!"
Xiao Shi hopped around, feeling like his butt was about to smoke, and his back burned as if on fire, sending waves of stinging pain.
Boom
Another bolt of lightning crazily struck him. This time it wasn't his behind, but his head. It made his originally jet-black, lustrous hair stand on end, forming a bizarre, unique hairstyle.
"Just you wait! When I can fly one day, I'll beat you until you're begging for mercy!"
Xiao Shi was still helpless and could only run. Fortunately, his physique was incredibly strong, and with the True Phoenix Treasure Technique, the lightning couldn't inflict any effective damage on him for the time being.
More than ten miles away, on the summit of a mountain, an old woman raised her cloudy eyes and looked in Xiao Shi's direction. Although they were far apart, she still felt a strange, oppressive aura between heaven and earth.
"Granny Lin, has an Ancient Desolate Species arrived?" the beautiful little girl, who was three or four years old, asked worriedly beside the old woman.
The old woman retracted her gaze and revealed a loving smile. She said to the little girl, "The peerless sword light before attracted all the powerful ferocious beasts in that area. We are now out of danger."
