Asura Emperor Venerable-Chapter 1525: Pure Soil

Without the Two-Worlds Passage needing suppression, Immortal Kings can do as they please.

The world is vast, and I can roam freely.

Of course, pursuing enemies for revenge is also possible.

Immortal King Zi Feng kept pursuing Shi Hao. He wasn’t in a hurry; his son was killed, so he couldn’t let Shi Hao die easily.

One day, two days, three days, five days went by, and Immortal King Zi Feng was a bit surprised.

How do you still have Instant Teleportation Talismans?

No matter how much Hongwu Immortal King spoils his son, the energy of an Immortal King is limited. How could he possibly create almost limitless Instant Teleportation Talismans?

Could it be that Hongwu Immortal King is also involved and gave Shi Hao plenty of Instant Teleportation Talismans?

Immortal King Zi Feng felt that both Hongwu and Xuan Bing, the two Immortal Kings, were crazy, being willing to give Shi Hao so many Instant Teleportation Talismans, which was incomprehensible to him.

Creating so many Instant Teleportation Talismans, not to mention not allowing oneself to cultivate and elevate one’s cultivation, consumes too much energy and might even cause a regression in strength!

So he couldn’t understand why Hongwu and Xuan Bing, the two Immortal Kings, would go to such lengths. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

How afraid are you of this kid dying?

Or perhaps, how well do you know this kid to know that he’d constantly get into trouble, and without Instant Teleportation Talismans, he couldn’t survive for a few days?

For an Immortal King to act for a whole five days and not be able to catch a Jade Immortal is quite embarrassing for Immortal King Zi Feng.

He indeed didn’t want Shi Hao to die too quickly, but after five whole days, not being able to touch even the hem of Shi Hao’s clothing made him feel quite ashamed.

Although this wasn’t because Shi Hao was strong, but because he had so many Instant Teleportation Talismans.

However, what can be done if he couldn’t catch up?

Could he use provocation to make Shi Hao stop and fight him?

Haha, that would be truly shameless.

Despite having different personalities, Immortal Kings share a trait of being imposing; they can look down on the world. How could they not be imposing?

So, naturally, Immortal King Zi Feng wouldn’t degrade himself with conspiracies.

And even if he did challenge Shi Hao to fight, Shi Hao couldn’t possibly agree like a fool.

Immortal King Zi Feng was frustrated, but so was Shi Hao.

They’ve been chasing for five days now!

What a waste!

However, Shi Hao saw a glimmer of hope for escape.

Ahead appeared a Ferocious Beast’s lair, judging by the aura emanating from it, there should be a big beast of Immortal King level.

Shi Hao immediately launched a Soul Shock attack on the nest, then concealed his aura and descended from the sky.

Bang!

The Immortal King beast rushed out immediately, looking up towards the sky, and soon locked onto Immortal King Zi Feng.

Immortal King, an opponent of the same rank!

"Roar!" It let out a furious roar and charged at once.

Immortal King Zi Feng didn’t want to battle with an Immortal King-level Ferocious Beast. The fight would be meaningless, but he had no choice; the beast wanted to fight.

Oh, it’s not so easy to just pick a fight and then leave when you feel like it.

Ferocious Beasts are known for their volatile temperaments. Even at the Immortal King level, this beast, too, couldn’t change its violent nature, crazily biting towards Immortal King Zi Feng.

Immortal King Zi Feng was helpless. The big beast was not weaker than he was, so if he were to let it attack freely, he might get injured or even fall here.

Therefore, he had no choice but to engage in battle with the Ferocious Beast.

Shi Hao smiled but did not flee far. Instead, he entered the Ferocious Beast’s lair.

This lair belonged to an Immortal King-level beast. There might be astonishing treasures inside.

He entered and started searching.

"Boy, this, this!" cried the Purple Gold Rat.

Shi Hao went over for a look and his face turned black.

What is this?

A lump of black poop!

"Pah, what eyesight do you have? This is Pure Soil!" chastised the Purple Gold Rat with bitter disappointment, "This thing is formed from the most primordial Earth Elements. Although it’s not very pure, it can still allow you to trace back to the most original Immortal Principle of Earth. Even if you aspire to become an Immortal Venerable in the future, it would help."

Only then was Shi Hao surprised; was this lump of poop—no, this Pure Soil—so impressive?

"Are you sure you’re not tricking me?" He was a bit skeptical since the Purple Gold Rat had been sneaky not just for a day or two.

"Would I, your lord, trick you?" the Purple Gold Rat retorted disdainfully, "Do I have time for that?"

Shi Hao thought about it; although Ferocious Beasts were not civilized, would an Immortal King-level beast lack wisdom?

If it was really just poop, would the beast leave it alone?

Thinking of this, Shi Hao couldn’t help but grin, collecting the lump of—no, the Pure Soil.

"Why is it called pure when it’s black?" he asked curiously.

"If it were green, you’d probably ask why it’s green?" the Purple Gold Rat responded.

Shi Hao chuckled, "There’s no green on my head, so you don’t have to worry!"

"Tsk tsk, I said one line, and you guessed what I’d say next; it seems we’re quite a match!" the Purple Gold Rat laughed heartily.

Shi Hao only sneered. This rat was so cheeky that once ’green’ came up, he knew what trick it was trying to play.

He exited the Ferocious Beast’s lair. In the distance, the battle between Immortal King Zi Feng and the Immortal King beast continued, still raging fiercely.

Shi Hao smiled, produced the Pure Soil, and called out to Immortal King Zi Feng, "Thanks, Brother Zi Feng."

Even from such a distance, though Immortal King Zi Feng could see clearly what was in Shi Hao’s hand, he couldn’t immediately discern exactly what it was. However, it didn’t matter if he didn’t recognize it; the Immortal King beast did, and seeing its treasure taken by Shi Hao, it naturally flew into a rage.

"Roar!" Its combat power surged, launching a ferocious attack on Immortal King Zi Feng.

In its view, Immortal King Zi Feng must have been the one who lured it away, allowing this little guy to take its treasure.

So, capturing the king first was necessary. Otherwise, if it chased after Shi Hao, Immortal King Zi Feng would certainly block its path.

Ferocious Beast’s minds are simple; they don’t think that far. They only take the simplest course of action.

Kill, kill, kill.

Faced with the sudden power spike of the Immortal King beast, Immortal King Zi Feng could guess that what Shi Hao took wasn’t simple, or else the beast wouldn’t be so desperate.

This realization almost made Immortal King Zi Feng faint with anger.

Oh, you got the treasure, and I’m supposed to be your scapegoat?

I’m not that good of a person!

But the Immortal King beast believed they were in cahoots, relentlessly pursuing him, leaving him no choice but to engage in battle. Otherwise, he could also end up suffering.

"Ugh!" he roared furiously, "Don’t think you can get away. I will come for you again."

Shi Hao just smiled and walked away.

Ditching Immortal King Zi Feng provided Shi Hao with a substantial amount of time.

—Finding him again would naturally take a long time; given the size and danger of the Forbidden Land, even an Immortal King can’t move unrestrained, so the next time Immortal King Zi Feng finds him might as well be several years later.

By then, maybe he would have already attained Immortal King status and wouldn’t fear a battle.
