Chapter 1466

- Burial Region Holy Land

“If you are alive, then what am I?” Shi Hao stared at her.

This was just too strange. The undead knight who had rotting wings now became a graceful and elegant young lady, full of beauty and youthfulness, completely changing her appearance.

Meanwhile, there were only bones left on himself. Even though his bones were sparkling white, not looking all that sinister, his flesh and blood did completely disappear, no longer looking like a living person.

“If I am alive, then what do you feel like you are?” The young lady calmly asked, retracting her smile. There was a pair of pure white wings on her back, her graceful and elegant figure accompanied with immortal mist, as holy as holy could be.

“This is an illusion!” Shi Hao cried out.

The young lady walked forward, not saying anything, only lightly tapping his arm. The white bone there released a clear sound, extremely sturdy.

Shi Hao was stunned. He reached out his hand to touch himself. There really was no flesh and blood feeling! If this was an illusion that blurred his eyes, then could it be that even his feeling of touch was also off?

At the same time, he felt the softness of the young lady’s hands. That was a true flesh and blood body!

“Don’t provoke me! Hurry and scatter this illusion!” Shi Hao said.

“Sigh, reality is before you, yet you refuse to believe it, one will always be reluctant to leave behind what has passed, still constantly lingering in the mind.” This pure and beautiful woman said with a soft sigh.

“Wait, could it be that you are…” Suddenly, the young lady backed up, revealing a look of alarm on her face.

It was because she recalled a legend here.

“That skeleton under the holy land?!” The young lady was shocked. She stared at Shi Hao, and then her face was filled with shock.

Shi Hao was a bit frightened by her sudden staring, completely confused.

The young lady’s body trembled slightly, only after a long time did she calm down. She took a deep breath, restoring her composure.

She produced a copper mirror that was sparklling and glistening, handing it over to Shi Hao. This was a powerful precious artifact, but it also served as the basic function of a mirror.

Shi Hao received it and looked at the surface. There was a skeleton reflected within. He opened his jaw, silently staring at the mirror. Meanwhile, inside the skull was a sphere of light that flickered continuously.

That was a soul flame. It never went out, continuing to burn with life fluctuations.

Shi Hao quickly threw out the copper mirror, refusing to believe his current state. This was too absurd, he ended up turning into a skeleton for some reason! He wouldn’t believe this even if the world itself collapsed!

“What is your intention in bringing me here?!” Shi Hao shouted.

“Perhaps I should change my way of speaking. What is seen isn’t necessarily the truth, that is only an imperishable will, but what is seen might perhaps also be the essence.” The young lady said in a profound manner.

“Don’t give me this nonsense, explain it to me a bit more directly!” Shi Hao shouted.

It was because he really was a bit worried. His primordial spirit shone, reflecting himself, allowing him to see everything clearly, examine himself. He was indeed just a skeleton.

His flesh no longer existed, only having bones left. The only fortunate thing was that his primordial spirit was unharmed.

What kind of damned place was this? Why did this type of thing happen?

“Have you heard about the achievements of certain burial kings?” The young lady said.

“Where would I hear about them? I never even entered burial region before!” Shi Hao was discontent.

“That burial king underwent a great tribulation, body and dao disappearing, ultimately buried in a tomb. However, its will never scattered, flesh turning into a butterfly, soaring in the world. That burial king always believed that he was still alive, but the butterfly fluttered about, one day landing on an ancient grave, seeing a skeleton. At that time, it suddenly became lost, asking itself who it was, what was its self.”

Shi Hao’s fine hairs stood on end. He took a few steps back and said, “You witch, I always thought that you were quite emotionless, but now, I feel like you’re quite cunning. Are you trying to make me lose my bearings? This is impossible! My dao heart is tough like steel!”

“What is the use in my fooling you? When you were a ‘butterfly’, my strength was greater than yours, able to kill your with just a raise of my hand. What is the point in deceiving you?” The young lady shook her head.

Her eyes were intelligent. She looked towards this remote and still land. “There is nothing more real than this. This is the past holy land of the burial region, able to reflect one’s true innate essence.”

Shi Hao laughed coldly and said, “It really is absurd, are you trying to say that I am that burial king, and recently, I turned into a butterfly, returning and seeing my own corpse? Meanwhile, right now, I am precisely in that great tomb?”

“Naturally not, you aren’t that burial king, but you are even more terrifying than him!” When she spoke up to here, the young lady’s eyes became brilliant. She looked at him, sighing with astonishment.

“I am more terrifying than him? Why?” Shi Hao asked.

“It is because when he died, his will didn’t scatter, flesh only turned into a butterfly, still able to wander the world. Meanwhile, you , even after death, your divine will didn’t scatter, difficult to extinguish. Billions of years later, your flesh turned into a person, identical to before, still walking this world!” The young lady said, voice extremely high, extremely moved.

These words struck down like thunder, shaking up Shi Hao until he felt like his body was trembling. He couldn’t help but take steps backwards.

“Don’t try to shake my resolution! Do you think I’m some three-years-old child? Like I’ll be fooled that easily!” Shi Hao was now scared, about to become hostile.

It was because what the young lady said was too outrageous. If what she said was real, then it was simply unimaginable, too horrifying. It was difficult for him to accept.

“Sigh, why don’t you believe me? As a past unmatched existence, you have already died, now only a will that hasn’t scattered, having unfinished wishes, hence, you continue to roam this world.” The young lady carried an expression of pity as she looked at Shi Hao.

Shi Hao was speechless, really not knowing what to say.

He wanted to retort, but his body lacked flesh, his bones snow-white like jade, sparkling and smooth. When he examined himself with his primordial spirit, he discovered that his body was a set of bones.

“Why don’t you believe me? This is a holy land, previously an unmatched burial land. It can reflect the essence. You ought to wake up, allow the will to return to the body.” The young lady said. At the same time, she was moved, saying, “The legend was real, I witnessed a miracle!”

“What miracle? This is nonsense, I am going to stake it all against you!” Shi Hao said angrily.

“The will of an unmatched existence is steady after all. Even after passing away, you still aren’t willing to believe that you died.” The young lady released a deep sigh.

She explained further, saying, “Ever since you came here, I watched the entire transformation, personally saw you fall, turn into a rain of light, your flesh scattering, proving the legend.”

“What kind of nonsense are you spouting?!” Shi Hao shouted angrily.

“Your will didn’t scatter, the past flesh turning into a human body, roaming the earth. Now, the great dream has already been woken from. After returning to the past land, seeing your own skeletal remains, only then did the flesh turn into light, all true essence revealed.” The young lady said.

Shi Hao didn’t say a word. He turned around to leave, he didn’t want to stay in this place.

Ony, when he stepped on the ground, ka ka sounds rang out, the sounds of joints touching. This drove him crazy, difficult for him to bear.

What was going on? What kind of blasted place did he enter? Everything was so sinister, he really couldn’t believe the young lady’s words.

However, the various signs all pointed towards the young lady’s words possibly being true.

“Do you know what kind of place this is? This is one of my burial region’s three great sacrificial holy lands. It is all because an unmatched existence was later buried here that this place became so strange, later abandoned, all undead knights withdrawing. Now, I have seen a miracle, verifying that the legend was real!” The young lady said, becoming increasingly excited.

“How about you hurry and wake up!” Shi Hao said, losing his temper.

“It is you who needs to wake up! What is buried here are precisely your remains, many undead knights have all searched for it before, but never seen it, moreover encountering strange things. Now, you have returned as a butterfly, everything proven. Look, this place is reviving, becoming a holy land once more!” The young lady said.

This quiet region was indeed changing, some giant rocks and other things appearing from the ground, piece after piece. They were even more grand than a mountain range, too large and majestic.

There were many ancient characters carved on these giant rocks, ancient and illegible.

“It’s you, it’s definitely you! Look at these recordings! They clearly explain the reasoning, only when your butterfly incarnation returns will this place revive again!” The young lady cried out loudly.

Shi Hao really was a bit stunned, because the surrounding burial earth continuously split apart, giant monuments appearing one after another, towering into the clouds, all of them curling with great dao aura.

This type of dao aura was too terrifying, incomparable, simply able to suppress the heavens’ immortals and devils!

“In the beginning, I felt like there might be a large chance that your butterfly incarnation returns, but I didn’t really believe it, still not minding it too much. However, now, there is proof! Heavens, I am witnessing a legend!”

The young lady cried out, becoming more and more excited.

“This legendary holy land has revived, there will definitely be heaven shocking changes!” She said with a trembling voice.

Shi Hao’s expression became completely blank, truly like an undead knight. He felt a headache, carrying too many questions. Furthermore, as ifin a daze, he seemed to have heard someone calling out to him.

“Huang, the soul has returned, should just allow yourself to be reconstructed, wuwu…”

Someone was crying, clearly extremely broken-hearted.

Shi Hao was sure that this wasn’t an illusion, that he really heard this.

“Who is cursing me?!” He was furious, not believing that he died this whole time.

“Great one!” The young lady first bowed down, and then she was alarmed, staring into the distance.

In the limits of this burial region’s horizon, there was a hazy expanse. It split apart, a river of time flowing over, primal chaos mist surging.

“What is this?” Shi Hao was confused.

“Heaven change!” The young lady was actually shaking.

“What is heaven change?” Shi Hao didn’t understand.

“Due to the holy land’s revival, even the heaven and earth here are undergoing a shocking change. The long river of time might have been torn in this instant, revealing people and events that normally should not appear.”

Based on what the young lady said, this holy land was unimaginable. The instant it revived, it would trigger heaven change. Perhaps it would allow one to see the gate of the future, or eras passed.

Shi Hao was confused, taking a step forward. He wanted to see what rested in the limits of the horizon, who exactly it was that was weeping.

The young lady was incredibly nervous, the pure white wings moving gently, raising her feet from the ground. She followed behind him, also heading in that direction.

“Huang, my brother, where are you? A great era has passed, Heavenly Emperor, did you really die?” Someone was crying, in incomparable grief.

“Wuwu… how could you have died? What did you encounter? The immortal path should have your name on it, reincarnation itself carrying your markings, a single fist smashing through everything in your path! However, you still haven’t appeared, a whole great era has passed! Did you truly die? You were nowhere to be found! I have already buried myself for nine worlds, watching the vicissitudes of time pass by, generation of generation of heaven’s pride elapsing, replacing each other, but why have you still not appeared?!”

That voice was extremely sad, that person in great grief and sorrow, sobbing endlessly.

Shi Hao’s scalp went numb!
