Chapter 481: Great Chaos Between Heaven and Earth

Shi Hao's body tensed, unable to relax; he thought he had control over his own destiny, unwilling to compromise with the Outer Domain's Great Sect, believing his fate was in his own hands. But now he realized that in the face of the upper realm's giants, no matter how prodigious your talents or even if you became the emperor, a single finger was enough to reduce you to ashes.

"I must transcend!" Shi Hao muttered to himself, his tone firm, his voice strong.

The disheveled old man from just before was one thing, but the old crone clearly saw this place as a Medicine Basket, interested only in finding the appropriate "precious medicine," which is why she hadn't made a move.

In just that instant, Shi Hao felt a chill throughout his body; his fate was in someone else's hands. The Stone Country's sacred forbidden ground, an entire nation's imperial palace, was actually being looked down upon as if it were just a piece of farmland.
