Perfect World Chapter 1848

Chapter 1848 - One Sword to Seal the Throat
Shi Hao went straight for the source, not to truly unleash slaughter, but rather to shake some things out.
Thirty years ago, he returned to the lower realms from the three thousand provinces. The first time he arrived at the edge of the darkness region, he had previously personally seen long life families collude with the creatures of darkness, conducting transactions.
It was also at that time that he obtained the rotten wooden chest again.
Back then, just how daring were those people? They were willing to hand over such an important item to conduct business with the creatures of darkness, they were truly shockingly daring.
In the past, Shi Hao recorded some figures with a crystal ball, including the conversations, all of it engraved within. This was basically the same as recording the scenes of that time.
He had always kept it on him, not releasing it.
At that time, Immortal Domain still hadn’t sent out troops, no one approaching this realm. If things were revealed ahead of time, then it would be completely meaningless.
At that time, the Nine Heavens’ families’ covered the heavens with their hands, even daring to touch this rotten wooden chest. If anyone exposed the matter, the information might have been immediately put down.
Even though later on, things were different, Immortal Domain sending out troops, Shi Hao was still not strong enough. Regardless of whether it was being targeted by the long life families or being careful of Immortal Domain’s people, there was definitely great danger.
Now, he was already a supreme being, not needing to fear the families of the Nine Heavens. Meanwhile, Immortal Domain’s cultivators were about to completely withdraw as well, meaning that it was precisely the time to make use of their last bit of energy.
That day, in the Nine Heavens Ten Earths, there was a piece of world shocking news.
Jin Family, Wang Family, Wind Clan, and others, a group of long life families had previously came into contact with the creatures of darkness, having close dealings. This was exposed.
A crystal ball created a huge storm.
This was definitely a huge matter. Even though there were always rumors in this world that certain clans might have colluded with the creatures of darkness, they didn’t expect such direct proof.
Even at broken Xumi Mountain, the darkness supreme being who followed Wang Family’s Old Eight left some doubtful, believing this to not be the best evidence.
There were some who supported Huang, believing that Wang Family and Jin Family should be punished, but they still didn’t really believe that they had close dealings with the creatures of darkness.
Now, a crystal appeared, on it recorded scenes from thirty years ago. There were clear figures, real conversations. This immediately triggered a huge commotion.
This caused a huge controversy, like world shocking ocean waves!
In the eyes of the people of this world, long life families were divine and powerful, high up above. They previously produced true immortals, so how could they betray the Nine Heavens?
There were some people that knew that the so-called immortal dao families were even more complicated inside. It was similarly a world of mutual deception, similarly dark, similarly had blood and swords, even more ruthless.
However, most people in this world didn’t understand this, because the difference between them was too far. They always thought that they were holy and high up above, the cornerstone that protected the Nine Heavens.
When this crystal ball was produced, displaying a hundred forms, revealing the truth, many people were shocked, their beliefs crumbling.
“This is definitely fake. There was someone who forged it! How can such a small crystal stone be used as proof? It really is a joke!” Someone jumped out.
It was clear that these families were scared. Now, this world was a bit too sensitive, too many things going on. It was already time to enter Immortal Domain, yet this type of thing happened, it was basically a sword to the throat!
The most crucial thing was that now that this information was revealed, it might just directly cut off their path of life.
If it was proven true, then Immortal Domain definitely wouldn’t overlook it, definitely interrogate them closely.
That was why almost immediately, a great storm began. While the people of this world were shaken, there were some families that did everything they could to settle the situation.
“This is just a crystal stone, nothing more. It cannot prove anything, someone forged it!”
Someone berated. This was a virtuous older generation expert who had cultivated for an extremely long time, his reputation great. In the end, he was invited out by long life families to criticize this type of ‘slander’.
“Long life families have always served as the defenders of this realm, protected the Nine Heavens Ten Earths for a great era, they’ve paid too much in blood and tears, how could they betray this world, willing to have dealings with those damn darkness creatures? This is impossible, there is clearly someone who is trying to dirty the water, slandering those immortal dao families!”
A well-known figure who was known to be strictly impartial and incorruptible stood out, the lord of a divine city. He loudly berated out, severely criticizing the one who handed this crystal over as a schemer who didn’t know what was right and wrong.
The world immediately became chaotic, directly erupting. It became incredibly noisy, clamoring and shaking the heavens.
Many people felt like this matter was too shocking. There were some who were doubtful, some who were horrified, some understanding clearly, some in disbelief.
Several days later, a second divine crystal appeared, placed in the hands of a giant city, revealing an even more shocking reality. It continued from the last one, this crystal stone’s engravings too clear.
Many people felt as if they were right there, feeling like this wasn’t forged.
Moreover, inside that crystal stone, they saw some rather familiar, well-known people’s faces, people from immortal dao families.
Hong!
This triggered huge waves.
This time, the world became chaotic, many regions entering disorder. Was this real? Even the long life families were like this, just how corrupt were the Nine Heavens?
The mental blow it dealt made many people tremble, feeling great fear. If not for Immortal Domain sending troops, back then, would those long life families really defect?
“Despicable, this is a shameless type of slandering, throwing dirt in pure water. I believe there will be public justice in this world. The long life families defend the Nine Heavens, they took an oath to never change. Just like their dead ancestors, their heads could be removed, blood could flow, but they definitely cannot betray the land!”
Immediately, there was someone who stood out, harshly criticizing the fraud who didn’t know right and wrong.
The long life families’ responses were swift. When the second crystal stone appeared, before someone could copy it, they quickly took action, seizing it.
Moreover, that day, a fake supreme being appeared, following up this matter.
This person had lived from the archaic times until now, someone with a terrifyingly high background, moreover just a hair away from reaching the Supreme Being Realm, having a venerable position.
The most crucial thing was that in all these years, he had friendly relations with many clans, his network extremely vast.
That day, he asked out some old friends, all of them living fossil level existences, their reputations extremely great. These people joined together, solemnly vowing that they investigated this strictly.
“Did you all hear? Senior Zheng De has left his seclusion, even an elder like him was startled, inviting out many big names, wishing to appraise the authenticity of those two divine crystals together, give everyone an explanation!”
“Senior Zheng De, that is but a half supreme being who had lived from the archaic times until now! It is rumored that he has already stepped into the supreme being domain, but unfortunately suffered from great dao injuries, falling back down. However, this is a public-spirited, selfless and fair senior, known as a man of great virtue.”
This news produced great cries of alarm. Many people were looking forward to this, believing that with this type of senior with a great reputation appearing, it would definitely bring the truth to everyone.
“The truth will be revealed in two days!” A big name who came out together with Zheng De half supreme being said, giving everyone the guarantee that they will selflessly speak the truth.
During these two days, things were truly chaotic. Everyone was discussing this in the heavens above and earth below. This was a sky shattering major affair.
Meanwhile, there were some long life families that felt as if there was a tempest within them. Everyone’s faces were incomparably gloomy, all of them feeling that things were now extremely bad.
The only fortunate thing was that their reactions were fast enough, bringing out a prestigious individual like Zheng De, asking him to inspect the divine crystal’s ‘authenticity’, to restore the ‘truth’.
This was definitely not their final trump card, they still had other methods. They had well-known individuals of a similar level, continuously inviting them out, making follow up arrangements.
The only thing they were worried about was that time was too pressing. The one who exposed the crystal stone was keeping track of time, making it hard for them to even breathe.
Time was just too close. If Immortal Domain’s people were alarmed, would they still be able to enter that realm? They were extremely worried that everything might amount to nothing.
“We have to hurry and uncover that person, stop him from exposing more crystals!”
The great families clenched their teeth. They hated that person bitterly, inwardly transferring great troops, strictly examining the disturbance.
Two days later, the moment everyone was waiting for arrived. They were all waiting for the truth to be publicly announced.
The various lands could not calm down, because this affected too much. This was an unprecedented great storm.
Time was even more pressing, the two day period had ended.
Zheng De and a big name had serious expressions on their faces. They stood on a grand altar, supporting two crystals with a jade plate, declaring the result before everyone.
“Based on our appraisal, the engravings in the divine crystal are fake, forged by someone to slander the long life families!” Zheng De said seriously.
Hong!
This immediately triggered a huge uproar.
“What did I say? How could the long life families possibly do this type of thing? Who isn’t aware that they are the shields of our Nine Heavens, defending our world’s dignity with their flesh and blood?!”
“The immortal dao families are eternally glorious, defending the peace of our realm!”
…
The troops the various great families arranged before all moved, immediately proclaiming their great merit, their past glory.
Apart from this, there were some cultivators with great reputations who stepped out, supporting the long life families.
However, the hidden individual didn’t seem to mind these voices, nor did he care if the people of the world were deceived. Several days later, a third crystal appeared.
“It’s fake, this person is extremely shameless, slandering the immortal dao families, saying they betrayed the Nine Heavens. He definitely harbors hidden motives!” Zheng De half supreme being said with a strict voice, standing out and retorting.
The other well-known individuals expressed their opinions, speaking out in righteousness, supporting the long life families.
The same day a fourth as well as the final crystal appeared. Zheng De and the others’ fine hairs immediately stood on end.
The long life families that were involved were immediately horrified, panicking greatly. They couldn’t sit still anymore, now completely losing their cool.
It was because the crystal stones were connected imprints. The final one clearly recorded a certain family coming with the rotten wooden chest, about to hand it over to the creatures of darkness.
This immediately caused the world to erupt!
The rotten wooden chest was something that Immortal Domain was looking into. During these thirty years, there were too many matters surrounding it!
Now, the crucial point was that with the appearance of the fourth crystal, it was as if a comet smashed into the great earth. Several families became horrified.
Even if the past crystals were proven to be fake, now that this fourth crystal stone appeared, Immortal Domain would definitely get involved.
This was too vicious!
The other party had this crystal stone, yet he didn’t bring it out earlier, only waiting until now to reveal it. He clearly wanted to end them.
The long life families knew that the other party grasped the timing just too well, basically using them. He let them clean up the filth a bit, prove their innocence, and only after this matter fermented to a certain degree, did he bring the true sword to seal their throats.
If there was no public clamoring, how would he get the entire world’s attention? Only by continuing the dispute, after the entire world became aware, did he reveal the fourth crystal stone. The effects were extremely great.
Now that it involved the rotten wooden chest, Immortal Domain would inevitably intervene!
As soon as a true immortal was involved, as for what was true and false, a bit of investigating and it would all be revealed.
“So vicious!”
Within some long life families, quite a few people were frightened until their faces turned white.
