Perfect World

Chapter 1953 - We Met Before On the Great River of Time

Scarlet King’s figure was well-built, his bronze skin flowing with brilliance, fiery red hair scattered down in front of his chest and behind his back. His massive body gave off a powerful feeling of pressure.

This was previously a giant in the foreign realm. Even though his rebirth was interrupted, suffering serious injuries, he still didn’t die, gradually recovering.

Right now, his current expression was enough to describe the shock he felt, how serious this situation was!

“Right, it was you!” Shi Hao suddenly realized, everything suddenly clear, knowing what kind of karma the two shared.

When he really thought about it in detail, the two really tangled with each other too deeply, the karma extremely great. No wonder that when they met again later, there were so many strange matters.

“You really were allowed to grow up!” Scarlet King’s long red hair burned like fiery light, dancing about there, releasing dazzling symbols. His aura was intimidating.

In that instant, his magical body increased in size, towering between heaven and earth, standing in the cosmos. Stars swirled about at his side. He revealed his most powerful state!

“In the past, you tried to kill me but failed. It is now time to settle this grudge!” Shi Hao said coldly. His magical body also increased in size, towering in the cosmos.

“I really never expected this... truly unexpected!” Scarlet King continuously sighed, at the same time revealing an expression of worry.

In the past, when Shi Hao was in Heavenly Deity Institution, there was a trial by fire where he followed everyone into the Immortal Ancient Battlefield. He experienced a mysterious journey there.

He previously drank a pot of alcohol, within it immortal dao symbols, natural luck and other things, stirring on great karma, alarming a giant from the upper reaches of the great river of time.

That creature was terrifying, actually able to gaze through the endless past, kill him even when separated by time, end him there.

Who could change the matters along the great river of time?

Without belonging to the same great era, there was simply no way of interfering. This contained tremendous karma, easily causing one’s downfall!

However, Scarlet King dared do this.

He previously carried out a deduction with other undying kings, wishing to see if there are any bad variables in the future. In the end, they truly discovered Shi Hao.

Scarlet King grasped the domain of time, the best at it. In the end, he took action, decisively interfering.

He stood at the upper reaches of the long river of time, wishing to kill Shi Hao, completely end him. It was because he saw a corner of a bad future.

“What I never expected was that there was a white-clad woman who came from the lower reaches of the great river of time, stopping my attacks.” Scarlet King’s face became overcast.

That time, he paid a great price, yet still couldn’t eliminate Shi Hao, leaving him frustrated. It was because he almost died from that experience.

There were rumors that Scarlet King suppressed an immortal king giant traveling around the world, wishing to seize his dao fruit, refine him into his own body, thus break through the Immortal King Realm.

That was why he went into seclusion.

In reality, it wasn’t like this at all. It was because that time, he interfered with the future, startling great karma, his own body almost destroyed, so he had no choice but to lay dormant.

Of course, he also used this chance of near death state to carry out a rebirth, wishing to reach a higher level.

That immortal king giant became the nourishment for his rebirth.

If there was a choice, he wouldn’t have slept for a great era with a single slumber. He was forced to do this.

Shi Hao was also thinking to himself. Where was that white-clothed woman now? She came from the future, just like a female goddess, style truly unmatched, strength dominating. At that time, she seriously injured the Scarlet King from the lower reaches of the great river of time.

He saw her more than once. He previously met her in Imperishable Scripture’s sea, in the time vortex, one step a great era. Unfortunately, in the end, they were still far away, the two wished to converse yet couldn’t hear each other.

Moreover, the one who folded paper boats at the Kun Peng Nest was also her!

What did her future self and the people at her side encounter? The situation didn’t seem to be that great. Were there groups of enemies targeting them?

“Heaven’s fate truly is a mysterious thing. Ever since I took action from the last great era, everything related to you disappeared from my mind. Our divinations turned to nothing, only now when we have met again did heavenly fate reappear.”

Scarlet King said to himself.

From a certain perspective, regardless of which part of the great river of time one wished to interfere with, it would be extremely hard. Even if one died themselves, it was still hard to interfere with it.

If one’s strength was great enough, able to freely wander within the river of time, change the past, overturn the future, what kind of state would this world result in?

That was why almost no one succeeded before!

As for those who dared take action, if they didn’t die, they went unconscious, difficult for them to come out into the world again.

Scarlet King was an example. He wasn’t an ordinary undying king, he was previously one of the unrivaled giants. Yet in the end, he still ended up in such a sorry state.

“Wu, everything makes sense now. I can see heaven’s twists of fate, it is precisely you. The corner of the future I saw was you, your existence is detrimental to our world, you ought to be eliminated!”

Scarlet King said. He looked at Shi Hao, only seeing a corner of the future, but already discovered that this youngster’s destructive force towards the foreign realm was massive beyond comparison.

Even though he didn’t see the end, he already knew that if this person didn’t die, this realm wouldn’t be at peace, to the extent where history’s most terrifying disaster might be brought about!

“Crossing the great river of time to kill my true self, how are you going to return this piece of karma?!” Shi Hao sneered.

“What karma do I share with you? If I want to kill, then I will naturally kill. I took on great karma with this heaven and earth, wishing to change the future, but then suffered a backlash, almost dying as a result.” Scarlet King said coldly.

However, he admitted that he really was tangled too deeply with Shi Hao.

Five hundred thousand years ago, his reborn body suddenly had a large half hacked off by an invading Shi Hao, how could this not be repaying an instance of great karma?!

The more he thought about it in detail, the more Scarlet King felt that this was reasonable. His soul was stirred up, mind difficult to calm down.

In the last great era, his attack on Shi Hao from the upper reaches of the great river of time failed, in this great era, Shi Hao appeared before him from time to time, attacking his true self.

This... the deeper he thought about it, the heavier his expression became.

“It truly is a pity. If there wasn’t that white-clad woman, I would have already killed you back then. Why would there be all this trouble?!”

Scarlet King felt regret!

Shi Hao laughed, his voice a bit cold. “Even now, you still don’t understand!”

“What do I not understand?” Scarlet King’s expression was cold.

“Even if no one saved me, I still wouldn’t have been killed by you!” Shi Hao said indifferently.

When Scarlet King heard this, his eyes became sharp like lightning, suddenly looking at him.

“It is precisely because you vainly tried to interfere with the great river of time, taking action from the upper reaches, that was why time, space and the world attacked you, causing someone from the lower reaches of the river of time to come and go after you. In reality, even if that white-clothed woman didn’t appear, there would have been other unexpected things. Perhaps you would have gotten lost, perhaps you would have assimilated into the dao and perished, maybe karma force would have devoured you!” Shi Hao said.

In this world, there were some things that were impossible to stop. Those who vainly wished to change the past all failed, those who frantically interfered with the future almost all died.

All signs indicated that all creatures, no matter how powerful they were, if they wanted to overstep the bounds of what was right, change great matters like time-space, it was the same as seeking the path to their own doom!

Scarlet King remained silent, but in the end, he couldn’t help but nod, saying, “What you say is reasonable. If I didn’t go against time, that white-clothed woman wouldn’t have appeared. Doing all of this, in the end... it was all futile! As expected, there are no creatures who could change the ages, disrupt the future.”

He was a bit disappointed and frustrated. He paid a great price in the past, but in the end, he suffered a rebound from this world, time, karma and other things, forced to enter seclusion, sleep for a great era.

Meanwhile, the mysteries of heaven they derived back then also disappeared from their brains.

When he carefully thought about it, it was all futile after all. Everything they did was useless!

“Scarlet King, come and settle this karma!” Shi Hao said, pressing forward.

“Entering my realm, wishing to act recklessly, trying to kill a dragon as a pig, do you think you’ll be able to leave?!” Scarlet King said.

He mentioned the other undying kings, but it was not because he was scared of Shi Hao. As an undying giant of a hundred battles, he didn’t really feel any fear. He really wanted to leave Shi Hao behind, because no one understood more clearly than him just how much destructive force this youngster would bring in the end!

“Scarlet King, it isn’t you alone who grasped the domain of time, I did as well! In the past, my second supreme being bone touched upon time!” Shi Hao roared with laughter.

He long sensed that Scarlet King’s time force was similar to a summoning.

Meanwhile, Shi Hao’s time force severed the space of this domain, cutting it off with the outside world.

In reality, when these two talked for so long, time didn’t continue flowing, almost stopping there.

It was because they grasped time laws!

“The battle between the two of us will definitely shock the heavens. At that time, you won’t be able to hide your true self!” Scarlet King said coldly.

Honglong!

Immediately afterwards, he took action. A blood red furnace flew over, swirling with dazzling radiance, releasing endless great dao flames, burning the skies.

One could see that the universe was melting. They saw Realm Sea, saw the future, the great river of time raging.

Scarlet King was too powerful. He was a giant, someone who looked down on the secular world!

“Kill!”

At this moment, Shi Hao didn’t dare act carelessly either, using all of his methods. He wanted to use the shortest amount of time to kill Scarlet King. Otherwise, the other undying kings would quickly arrive.

This type of battle couldn’t go to three thousand moves. He instead used his greatest moves, clashing head-on, deciding life and death in an instant.

Sword wings appeared from Shi Hao’s body, this was Aocheng’s weapon. In an instant, sword energy erupted in endless streaks, flying outwards. At the same time, a heavenly spear appeared in his hands, this was originally Taishi Immortal King’s weapon, now attacking Scarlet King.

Dang!

The scarlet red furnace previously absorbed an immortal king’s essence blood and soul, terrifying beyond compare. It erupted with endless great dao symbol light flames.

This place exploded, stars caving in. The great river of time tangled about the two of them.

This was a world shocking great battle!

Shi Hao wanted to decide life and death with this strike, but Scarlet King was cunning, not facing him head-on, avoiding his attacks. He defended with the Scarlet King Furnace, while he himself withdrew.

“Past extending to present everlasting!”

Scarlet King shouted. He used a secret time technique. With a slice, he cut open his own wrist, blood splashing outwards, and then the secret technique was displayed. He wanted to remove Shi Hao’s head.

This was time force, time symbols. They were soaked in the blood of Scarlet King, surrounding Shi Hao.

Hong!

The sword wings on Shi Hao’s body shook, releasing endless sword radiance, piercing through time force. He released a roar, his secret techniques all released, vowing to kill Scarlet King.

With a hong noise, reincarnation force appeared, time symbols fluttered about. These were Shi Hao’s time laws, seizing Scarlet King’s time, surrounding him within.

At the same time, his fist became too dazzling, lightning endless. It smashed through everything in the way, attacking Scarlet King’s true body.

Dang!

Scarlet King released a great roar. The fiery red furnace blocked in front of him again. Moreover, at this time, he sneered, producing a small bell. With a light shake, heaven and earth shook, time shattering, becoming like a sea, drowning Shi Hao within.

“In the past, when I was in the great river of time, I didn’t dare touch the foundational force of time, but today, I don’t feel any misgivings anymore. Who can stop me?” Scarlet King roared out.

The giant of a generation now fully displayed his unmatched skills. He went crazy, wishing to cut down Shi Hao here.

When Shi Hao was surrounded within, one could see his hair turning white, body becoming aged. He was struck by Scarlet King’s second undying king weapon’s symbols. His body shook endlessly.

That bell looked gray and plain, but it released chaotic energy, swirled with time ripples. It was too powerful, much more terrifying than the Scarlet King Furnace.

This was Scarlet King’s life weapon, something he had refined for an endless amount of time. It was his most powerful trump card.

Heh...

Shi Hao was laughing, not feeling fear. His body was covered in symbols, his six great secret realms shining at the same time. Time force was hacked open by him, his body returning to his young state!

In that instant, his body seemed to have turned into a bell, then became a pagoda, then a cauldron, mysterious and unpredictable, containing endless great dao profound mysteries.

Hong!

In the end, he stood here. A pool appeared, secret techniques appearing within and symbols swirling. It was just too mysterious.

All types of irregular scenes appeared!

At this moment, the heavens all appeared, supporting Shi Hao one layer after another!

Great dao golden lotuses appeared all over the cosmos, the river of time irrigating those great dao golden lotuses. They covered the world just like that.

At the same time, fiery light appeared in endless strands around Shi Hao’s body, like divine precious clothes, carrying rebirth force. One could vaguely hear phoenixes that cried out. When he brandished his fist, it was as if a Kun Peng spread its wings, splitting the heavens.

That scene was too terrifying, endless profound mysteries appearing. When Shi Hao took action, the six great secret realms rumbled, displaying all of his secret cultivation methods, forming a fist imprint!

“Kill!”

Shi Hao released a great shout that shook this realm. The other undying kings were alarmed, rushing towards this place.

It was too terrifying!

Shi Hao’s fist was incomparable, contained within it were the Lightning Emperor Technique, Kun Peng profound mysteries, True Phoenix rebirth force, True Primordial Record, Imperishable Scripture meanings, Grass Symbols Sword Extreme...

He had long completely mastered all of these things, taking them as his own. Now, they were merged into unrivaled true meanings, displaying a world shocking strike.

The secret techniques he produced merged together, carrying irregular scenes, now smashing forward murderously.

Right now, Shi Hao was incomparable!

His entire body was hazy, as if he didn’t belong to this age. His fist imprint was without equal!

Scarlet King wanted to evade, didn’t want to face it head-on, but he couldn’t. It was because those irregular scenes swallowed up this expanse of cosmos.

There were great dao golden lotuses everywhere, watered by the great river of time. Those scenes were as terrifying as terrifying could be. In the surroundings, figures sat one after another, seated above the nine heavens!

Immortal Kings approached the nine heavens, more than just one. They displayed endless power, as if there was a true group of exceptional experts who descended!

Scarlet King had no choice but to fight, fight Shi Hao to the end.

Dang!

In the end, Shi Hao’s fist smashed through that fiery red furnace, shaking up Scarlet King until he coughed out large mouthfuls of blood, staggering backwards.

If this strike was ineffective, then Shi Hao really would have lost, because this was everything he had. He wanted to kill Scarlet King before the other undying kings arrived.

He used everything he learned, his life’s power was fully displayed.

AHH...

Scarlet King roared, blocking Shi Hao’s fist imprint that continued forward after smashing through the Scarlet King Furnace, clearly about to reach his body.

It displayed its original form, its entire body scarlet red. It had the head of a flood dragon, body of a lion, covered in blood scales, sinister and ferocious.

At the same time, it opened its mouth, spitting out that bell, also displaying the most powerful divine abilities. It rushed at Shi Hao, staking it all.

The sky and earth here immediately turned upside down.

Shi Hao endured the erosion of time force. His six great secret realms shone, severing time, but he was still injured, blood flowing from the corners of his mouth.

He didn’t even suffer like this when facing three great immortal kings. However, when facing Scarlet King, this giant, the other party’s dying retaliation posed such a great threat to him.

“Kill!”

Shi Hao’s entire body swirled with immortal light, forcefully stirring on the years, tearing apart time symbols. That hand produced a fist imprint, smashing over murderously.

Dang!

The Scarlet King Bell was blasted aside by him. Even though his hand was corroded to the point of declining and aging, it was still smashed apart. Then, with a honglong noise, he attacked Scarlet King.

Scarlet King’s original body opened its bloody mouth, tearing at Shi Hao, wishing to directly devour him.

“Evil thing, you dare?!”

Shi Hao roared out. In the surroundings, golden lotuses were everywhere. These weren’t void images, but rather truly appearing. They immediately submerged Scarlet King, blasting at him.

At the same time, there were many seated figures that appeared in the sky. They opened their eyes, attacking at Scarlet King murderously.

That was a secret technique Shi Hao established. This strike was too terrifying. Those figures attacked at the same time, truly like kings that approached the nine heavens, all of them taking action.

Hong!

Scarlet King was blasted until he coughed out large mouthfuls of blood!

Pu!

Shi Hao’s true body sat on top of it, fist imprint unmatched, attacking its body. Blood immediately erupted.

Honglong!

Primal chaos drowned out this place, blood radiance continuously surging. Beast roars and furious howls sounded continuously, the fighting bitter.

Pu!

In the end, everything came to an end. Scarlet King’s body fell to the edge of the ruined cosmos, head directly torn off by Shi Hao, held in his hand.

However, that primordial spirit didn’t perish, momentarily impossible to kill.

“Collect!”

Shi Hao shouted. A pool appeared, sucking Scarlet King’s headless body inside. At the same time, it also seized Scarlet King’s weapon.

As for that head and primordial spirit, they were personally subdued by Shi Hao. He held the head in hand, turning around and leaving.

“Who?”

“You dare?!”

“Kill!”

Right at this time, undying kings appeared in succession, taking action even while millions and millions of li away. There was a large hand that reached over, striking towards Shi Hao’s back.

There was a golden spear that was incomparably sharp, stabbing at the back of Shi Hao’s head.

They were chasing him murderously!
