Perfect World Chapter 1718

Chapter 1718 - Sudden Major Life Event
Shi Ziling was extremely moved, he had already left the lower realms for many years. Today, he was finally going to return. He was extremely happy and excited.
However, soon afterwards, his expression went dark, because Grandpa Fifteen was still in Immortal Tomb, no way he could follow them back. This left him full of regrets, even feeling the urge to stay behind.
“Grandfather needs a few years at the very least to awaken. Let’s go back first. Since we found the ancient path, there will be a chance to come back in the future.” Shi Hao said.
Shi Ziling nodded, this was the only way. He also knew that there would be too many dangers for his older son if he remained in the higher realms, because many people had their eyes on him, all of them great figures.
If not for Immortal Academy and Sacred Academy’s two powerful individuals stopping Wind Clan’s ancestor, a supreme being would have personally came down from the Nine Heavens to get rid of Shi Hao.
“What a pity… Underworld Earth, Heavenly Country, I haven’t visited any of these places, didn’t settle accounts with them yet.” Shi Hao was quite regretful.
“Child, do not bother with these things for now, let’s just hurry back to the lower realms first! As long as we are at peace, then everything is fine!” Qin Yining said. She was always extremely worried, scared that something unexpected would happen.
It wasn’t easy for her eldest son to come back alive from Desolate Border, she didn’t wish to see anything bad occur.
Shi Hao nodded, temporarily forgetting all of this. It was because he knew that the three thousand provinces still had ruined immortals, so he couldn’t overlook the world yet.
Shi Ziling and Qin Yining immediately left, starting to put everything in order in preparation for their trip back. Towards this, Immortal Qin didn’t stop them, allowing them to make their decisions themselves.
What was surprising was that Qin Hao was unmoved, still standing there, no intention of leaving.
Shi Hao was moved. He looked towards him, but didn’t ask why he didn’t pack his things.
“Older brother, I wish to stay here. With you looking after father and mother, I am at ease, I will stay in the three thousand provinces, continue my cultivation in the higher realms.” Qin Hao said.
He expressed his intentions to stay in the higher realms, continue cultivating here, because the lower realms were lacking in spiritual essence, great dao incomplete, not suited to cultivation.
When Shi Hao heard this, he released a light sigh. He nodded, understanding his younger brother’s intentions.
Qin Hao’s situation was indeed troublesome. In terms of cultivation environment, the lower realms’ eight regions, no matter how one looked at it, couldn’t compare to the higher realms’ three thousand provinces.
Shi Hao frowned. “When the time comes, you should properly bid your goodbyes to father and mother, talk things out. They will likely be reluctant to part with you.”
“Older brother, if you go to the lower realms like this, your cultivation will…” Qin Hao was worried.
This was a sincere worry. Now, his older brother already grew to an inconceivable degree, his future accomplishments limitless, breaking all records of this great era.
If he headed down to the lower realms just like that, it would be the same as binding his own arms and legs, no benefits to his cultivation at all, perhaps even halting completely!
Shi Hao carefully thought for a bit, and then said, “There will be some effects, but it won’t necessarily stop my path.”
He then raised his head and said, “For me, perhaps it is a type of necessary sharpening.”
Leaving the three thousand provinces and heading to the lower realms’ prison wasn’t only to hide from enemies, it could also be considered a different type of cultivation.
However, he couldn’t deny that the reason he was returning, aside from missing his homeland, the biggest reason was to avoid danger. He had to avoid Wind Clan, Wang Clan, Jin Clan, ruined immortals, and other powers.
Apart from this, his trip to the lower realms was also truly because he wanted to temper his true self in an extreme environment.
He had this type of confidence. His path was different from others, using the body as a seed. In the end, what he had to open was his own inner treasury, depend less on the greater heaven and earth.
In reality, body as a seed was the most difficult path. The reason why there was this great type of great method was because there were some who believed that if the world changed, natural laws altered, at that time, the situation of cultivators might become worrisome.
Shi Hao’s trip to the lower realms this time could be considered a type of tempering. He was going to come down to the lower realms to sharpen himself, try to survive and break through in the worst environment, still become more powerful.
“What, my child, you are going to stay in the higher realms?!” When Qin Yining came back and learned of Qin Hao’s decision, her eyes immediately became red.
She was extremely hurt, and also extremely surprised. She never thought that her second child would remain, not return with the family to their homeland.
“What is so good about cultivation? As long as you all are safe, our family stays together, then all is good! We can stay away from the disputes, there is no need to take risks in the higher realm!” Qin Yining advised, eyes carrying tears.
Qin Hao helped her wipe her tears, saying, “Mother, I want to become stronger, I don’t want to spend my life in an ordinary manner. I know older brother will not either, he is only going to the lower realms to temporarily seclude himself, he will return sooner or later. Meanwhile, I will cultivate in the higher realms, wait for him. In the future, we will bring you all back as well!”
“Child, what are you saying?” Shi Ziling looked at him. He actually really wanted his second son to go back as well.
“We are cultivators, so since we have walked on this path, we need to take it to its end. Only by standing at the peak, becoming the most powerful, can we transcend beyond, overlook the world, become free and unrestrained. This world will become chaotic sooner or later, temporary peace is but a notion. Me and my older brother are grasping precisely this short period of peace to cultivate, as we don’t know when it will end. By quickly rising up, we can then use our strength to face any unpredictable future changes!” Qin Hao’s decision was firm.
Shi ZIling and his wife opened their mouths, but they didn’t know what to say.
Shi Hao was also rather surprised, not expecting his younger brother to actually speak these words. He had matured quite a bit as expected.
“You need to take care of yourself!” Shi Hao removed the Long Life Battle Armor, returning it to his younger brother.
Then, after thinking for a bit, he said, “Come with me for a bit.”
He wanted to pass on some life-saving measures, secret techniques, and other things to Qin Hao. These were secret methods and experiences he obtained after experiencing blood and flames.
Just like that, Shi Hao stopped for two more days, instructing Qin Hao.
Immortal Qin was happy to watch all of this, after all, he had invested quite heavily into Qin Hao, so he hoped to see Qin Hao stay behind. Thus, he naturally didn’t disturb them.
During these past two days, there were sects that paid them visits continuously, sending important gifts that were even more precious than before.
It was clear that Shi Hao had slaughtered out his glory. Not even supreme being imprints were able to kill him, so it was easy to imagine that once he rose up, he would definitely become a supreme being.
Of course, the battle of Spirit Realm was still the main reason, making even Immortal Palace suffer greatly, what happened completely impossible to predict. All sects were shaken, their hearts carrying fear.
“This is too awesome, there are so many spiritual medicines! Even if we eat a stalk a day, we could eat for a really long time!”
“These weapons are all valuable with special origins! I like that halberd!”
The children who Shi Hao brought back from Desolate Border were all incredibly excited. They were all extremely happy during these past few days, in charge of organizing the gifts the clans sent over.
The golden lion was also supervising this, sending piles of treasures separately into different spatial magical artifacts.
During this period, there were people who came one after another, all of them great figures, higher level individuals from different sects.
It was to the extent where even sect lords and supreme elders of some sects, figures whose words carried tremendous weight back in their sects, arrived in Immortal Mountain just to see Shi Hao.
Some of them came to apologize humbly, some to pull their relationship closer. They all knew that Huang was a hidden dragon, one who would rush into the heavens one day.
“Little friend, you really are worthy of being a dragon among men. In the future, your accomplishments will be immeasurable!” Someone praised in the reception room.
During these two days, Shi Hao passed on secret methods to Qin Hao, not spending that much time with visitors. However, he was still rather careful with those from great sects, so he had no choice but to make a trip.
“Worthy young one, do you have a dao companion? My humble self has a daughter at the age of sixteen, definitely a peerless beauty…”
In the reception room, a sect lord actually spoke out like this. He came from an extremely ancient and distant inheritance, actually directly trying to pull close the relationship like this.
“He still doesn’t have one!” Qin Yining was also here, even more direct, eyes even lightning up. It was because she wanted Shi Hao to get married earlier, leave behind children.
Otherwise, these two sons of hers were both always getting in trouble these past few years, truly leaving her terrified.
When Shi Ziling heard this, he was also moved, nodding. The two children’s ambitions were great, both of them wishing to ‘pierce the heavens’, so he also wished to have some grandchildren earlier. In the future, those two sons could go wild in the world after.
“Haha, that is great news. My daughter has clear eyes and wonderful looks, beautiful and charming, indeed a rare beauty.”
Shi Hao was speechless. He looked at Qin Hao first, and then at his parents, saying, “Me and my younger brother’s ages are similar, she can get married to him and take care of him. If we leave him alone in the higher realms, none of us will be able to feel at ease!”
“My heart belongs to the dao, right now I do not have mortal thoughts.” Qin Hao hurriedly shook his head.
“The children are shy.” Qin Yining laughed. Then, she gave those two brothers a few stern looks, and then brought that young lady over, extremely enthusiastic.
Then, she was extremely fierce, and also decisive, secretly transmitting to the two brothers, demanding that each one of them had to take a wife, or else she wouldn’t agree.
“If you want to stay behind in the higher realms, you have to satisfy father and mother’s wishes!” Shi Hao glared out, looking towards Qin Hao. He couldn’t argue with his parents, so he could only pressure Qin Hao.
In reality, Shi Ziling and Qin Yining wished for Shi Hao to get married first the most, have his own children.
However, they knew that too many things happened to Shi Hao in the past. For example, his respected master Meng Tianzheng had just left the world, Fire Clan’s close female friend Huo Ling’er lost to the other side, so it wasn’t easy to force him.
However, when some other people came to pay a visit, Qin Yining changed her mind. Moreover, there was anger in her eyes.
“Celestial Clan’s people actually came, moreover brought a young lady?!”
“Yes, it should be the young lady named Yun Xi!” Someone replied.
“Celestial Clan wishes to ease the tension between us? I understand their intention. Have that child named Yun Xi stay behind, the rest can leave!” Qin Yining said.
She carried a wave of resentment inside, because she deeply understood how her eldest child went to City of Heaven precisely because he escorted that child named Yun Xi, yet in the end had his kindness repaid with malice.
She didn’t feel the slightest good feeling towards this clan. Today, now that the topic of her eldest son choosing a wife came up, this could be considered collecting debt!
