Chapter 37 Darkness is Coming! A Prophecy from Su Ling
Shi Hao punched Xia Youyu away, his face turning pale instantly.
His body swayed, and he almost couldn't stand up.
Fine beads of sweat seeped from his forehead and slid down his cheeks.
"The consumption is too high..."
He had a bad feeling and his breathing became rapid.
The two activations of the Reincarnation Power within the Supreme Bone just now nearly drained half of my vital energy.
If it weren't for the solid foundation laid under Liu Shen's guidance over the past few months, I would probably be collapsed on the ground by now.
Xia Youyu suppressed her surging emotions and calmed her mind.
She looked at Shi Hao's pale face and felt a little calmer.
"That heaven-defying technique consumes a great deal of energy, and he cannot use it continuously."
Even so, it's still terrifying enough.
Her gaze fell on Shi Hao's chest.
There, the hazy light had not yet dissipated, and a wisp of mysterious energy floated faintly, causing her soul to tremble.
A chilling conjecture exploded in my mind like a thunderclap.
"you..."
She took a step forward, her voice trembling slightly with excitement:
"That bone in your chest... is it the Supreme Bone? You are... a born Supreme Being?!"
"Buzz—"
These words shocked everyone in the Heaven-Mending Pavilion.
Shi Hao's brows furrowed immediately.
A hint of gloom and wariness flashed across her small face.
The pain of having his bones removed during childhood is the deepest scar in his heart.
Flesh and blood were torn apart, loved ones betrayed him, and even though his supreme bones had regenerated, nightmares still struck from time to time.
Are these people in front of me... also coveting his bones?
His body tensed, his eyes sharp as knives, as he coldly stared at Xia Youyu.
The voice carried a chill:
"What... exactly do you want?"
Before she finished speaking, Zhu Zhuqing had already moved silently and stood slightly in front of Shi Hao.
She didn't say anything, but her actions showed her stance.
Xia Youyu sighed softly as she looked at the two men's wary posture.
A complex expression appeared on her stunningly beautiful face.
After a long while, she murmured to herself, her voice ethereal and distant:
"A hundred years ago, there was a young man who emerged from the Great Wilderness..."
Shi Hao and Zhu Zhuqing were both taken aback.
Xia Youyu continued speaking, her voice filled with an almost devout reverence:
"When he was born, there were extraordinary phenomena such as gods and demons bowing and celestial kings lowering their eyes."
"He entered the Blood Transformation Realm before he was even five years old."
"And it's not about following the rules, but about creating your own combat techniques to fight ancient remnants with your bare hands!"
Shi Hao was stunned.
Five years old... Blood Transmission Extreme Realm?
Self-created combat techniques?
Fighting ancient remnants bare-handed?
He instinctively clenched his fist.
Even though he possessed the inheritance of a Celestial King, the Primordial True Understanding, the Six Paths Reincarnation Heavenly Art, the Grass Character Sword Technique, and was even guided by the Willow God...
However, when facing that five-colored peacock, without using the Supreme Bone, he was not entirely confident of killing it.
And that person... could do that at five years old?
Xia Youyu's voice continued, and with each sentence, Shi Hao's heart skipped a beat:
"He entered the Heaven-Mending Pavilion at the age of seven and swept away his peers without being able to defeat them."
"All the geniuses paled in comparison to him."
"To receive the inheritance of the ancient holy academy at the age of eight is a fortune that even leaders of the sect crave."
"At the age of ten, he entered the Array Formation Realm and inscribed an unparalleled killing array within his body..."
"In the battlefield of a hundred races, he tore apart Venerable Demon Spirit Lake with his bare hands!"
"What?!"
Zhu Zhuqing gasped, her beautiful eyes widening.
Ten years old... tearing apart the Venerable One?
The image from the previous sky flashed through her mind.
The Sky-Devouring Sparrow spreads its wings, blotting out the sky, and swallows up a giant city in one gulp; the ferocious Qiongqi is so powerful that it tears the heavens apart.
Such a being was torn apart by a ten-year-old child?
"impossible..."
She murmured, her voice changing.
She looked at Shi Hao.
But then they found that the little guy had also fallen silent.
Shi Hao's face tightened, and his dark, bright eyes surged with turmoil.
He understood the weight of the word "venerable one" better than Zhu Zhuqing.
That was a peak existence in the eight realms of the lower world, ruling over ancient kingdoms and governing hundreds of millions of miles of mountains and rivers.
Ten years old... tearing apart the Venerable One?
The gap is too big.
He himself had not even fully stabilized the Blood Transformation Realm, while the ten-year-old opponent was already carving formations and fighting against Venerables in the Array Formation Realm.
Shi Hao bit his lip hard.
A sense of pressure mixed with resentment welled up in my heart.
...
At this moment, on the Douluo Continent, beneath the sky...
"Ten years old...tore apart a Venerable One?!"
"That Venerable One... is he the giant bird that devoured the city before?!"
"My God! He can tear the Sky-Swallowing Sparrow apart like paper?!"
"What...what kind of monster is this?!"
The mainland was in an uproar; countless people felt their scalps tingle and their hair stand on end.
Inside the Shrek Academy campus.
Tang San stared intently at the sky, veins bulging on his forehead.
He recalled that when he was ten years old, he was still studying the basics at Notting Academy, preparing for his second spirit ring.
And the children of that world... were tearing apart world-destroying beasts at the age of ten?
A sense of frustration and jealousy gnawed at my heart like a venomous snake.
Xia Youyu's voice continued to echo from the sky, each word like a heavy hammer blow to the heart:
"At the age of twelve, he ignited the divine fire and stepped into the realm of divine fire."
"One person suppressed all the ancient sects and sacred mountains in the eight regions of the lower realm."
"Those colossal beings, whose lineage spans countless eras and whose foundations are unfathomable, all bowed their heads in submission before him."
"When he ascended, seven true gods descended from the upper realm and set up an unparalleled killing formation, attempting to annihilate him in the lower realm and eliminate the threat."
As Xia Youyu spoke, a proud blush rose on her face, and her voice trembled:
"As a result... he suppressed them all with a single hand, the seven gods bled, their divine bones shattered, and their blood stained the eight regions!"
The members of Butian Pavilion stood tall, their faces filled with pride and honor.
Shi Hao fell completely silent.
He looked down at his small hands and then touched the warm, supreme bone on his chest.
At the age of twelve... he ignited the divine fire and single-handedly suppressed seven true gods?
What does that mean?
I haven't even touched the threshold of the Cave Heaven Realm yet, but the other person, at the age of twelve, has already reached that level...
The gap is as vast as an insurmountable chasm.
Xia Youyu took a deep breath to calm herself, her eyes still burning with passion:
Ultimately, due to the restrictions of the laws of the lower realm, he had no choice but to ascend to the upper realm.
"But before he left, he left behind a prophecy—"
She looked at Shi Hao, her voice serious and deliberate, each word distinct:
He said that the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, and even the entire myriad realms, are about to face an unprecedented great reckoning.
"Darkness will descend, all realms will crumble, and all spirits will shed blood."
"Only one exceptionally talented youth emerged from the Great Wilderness, born for cultivation, and destined to face calamity..."
Only then can one save the world from collapse and save all living beings.
"Born to cultivate the Tao, arrived to face calamity, possessing unparalleled talent..."
Shi Hao repeated to himself.
His dark, bright eyes blinked.
The more I listen to this, the more it sounds like it's about myself?
He possesses his elder brother's Celestial King inheritance, the Primordial True Understanding, the Six Paths Reincarnation Heavenly Art, the Grass Character Sword Technique, and guidance from the Willow God...
Along the way, the ancient remnants were instantly killed, and none of their peers had ever met an opponent.
Isn't this what "unparalleled talent" means?
A great reckoning is about to take place in the Great Wilderness... I walked out of Stone Village, which is exactly what it means to "walk out of the Great Wilderness".
As he thought about it, a smug smile unconsciously appeared on Shi Hao's face.
The corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and his eyes seemed a little unfocused.
"Cough cough."
Seeing that the boy was getting a little cocky from being flattered, Zhu Zhuqing cleared her throat and coldly reminded him:
"One should know how to be humble. Don't let a few kind words make you forget who you are."
