Perfection: He is the Heavenly Emperor, I am the Eastern Emperor!

Chapter 281 Qi Daolin

Chapter 281 Qi Daolin

Shi Hao worked quickly and soon prepared the deer antlers, put them in the pot, added some medicinal herbs and seasonings, and soon an enticing aroma filled the air.

"Your cooking skills are getting better and better."

Watching Shi Hao's skillful movements, Shi An couldn't help but tease him, his eyes full of doting affection.

"hey-hey."

Shi Hao simply chuckled twice and then invited everyone to sit down.

Soon, the group sat around the pot, enjoying the food and chatting.

Shi An asked first, "Brother, when did you arrive in the Upper Realm? And why did you come to the Celestial Immortal Academy?"

"I came here six months ago..."

Upon hearing this, Shi Hao immediately recounted his experiences over the past period.

It turns out that Shi Hao had arrived in the Upper Realm half a year ago, which was when Shi An had just left the Heavenly River Secret Realm.

Six months ago, with the help of Liu Shen, Shi Hao successfully crossed the boundary wall and arrived in the Sin State!

Indeed, just as Liu Shen sent Shi Hao to Tianzhou, Liu Shen directly sent Shi Hao to Zuizhou.

In the Sinful State, just like in the original story, Shi Hao encountered the demon dragon Daoist cultivators who guarded the Sinful Blood lineage, and also learned some legends about the Sinful Blood.

After that, he found Huo Ling'er, and then, whether influenced by Shi An or something else, he didn't know.

This time, when Shi Hao met Huo Ling'er again, he didn't hesitate at all and directly established a relationship with her. He even used the experiences of Shi An and Huo Ling'er to successfully persuade her to travel with him.

As for why the two of them appeared at the Celestial Academy, it was because before going to the Upper Realm, Shi Hao had asked Liu Shen how he could see his little brother An again.

That's why the two of them appeared at the Celestial Academy.

"I see."

After listening to Shi Hao's explanation, Shi An nodded slightly, then stared at his chest, puzzled, and asked, "Then why is the Supreme Bone in your body gone again?"

"This... ..."

Upon hearing Shi An inquire about his Supreme Bone, Shi Hao couldn't help but reach out and touch the spot where the Supreme Bone had once been, then smiled wryly: "I asked the Willow Goddess to give it to my younger brother, Qin Hao!"

"Um?"

Upon hearing that Shi Hao had actually given the Supreme Bone to Qin Hao, Yun Xi and even Huo Ling'er were all shocked.

She had never heard him mention before that he had given away the Supreme Bone!

"Why did you do that? Why did you give away the Supreme Bone?"

The next moment, Huo Ling'er's eyes reddened slightly, and even her voice carried a hint of urgency and heartache: "That's your Supreme Bone! Do you know what it means to you?"

Seeing Huo Ling'er's anxious expression, Shi Hao felt a warmth in his heart. He then reached out and gently took her hand, saying softly, "Ling'er, don't worry. Even without that bone, I will still be invincible in this world, forever dominating all ages!"

Shi Hao's gaze was firm, his eyes revealing an unwavering confidence—a powerful belief that originated from the depths of his soul. He was confident that even without the Supreme Bone, he could still stand out from the crowd.

Perhaps it was the strong conviction in Shi Hao's words that caused a different kind of brilliance to appear in Huo Ling'er's beautiful eyes, who had been somewhat worried.

That's right, he's never been one to give up easily, and since he did it this way, he must have his reasons.

Thinking about it, Huo Ling'er still felt quite sorry for Shi Hao and gently rubbed his chest, whispering, "You rascal, that's a Supreme Bone! You just gave it away like that, really..."

"Bang!"

As she spoke, Huo Ling'er unconsciously gave the other person's chest a light tap.

What could Shi Hao say to this? He could only scratch his head and smile in response, then turned to Shi An and said, "Let's not talk about me anymore, brother. How have you been in the Upper Realm these past two years? How did you end up joining the Celestial Academy?"

"Me...

When Shi Hao asked about him, Shi An couldn't help but glance at Yun Xi, and then told her about his experiences since arriving in the Upper Realm, including the matter of the Three-Pointed Double-Edged Sword.

Because he didn't feel the need to hide anything from Shi Hao.

"So, you've acquired another celestial artifact, and a complete one at that?!"

After hearing Shi An's account, Shi Hao's eyes widened in shock and disbelief. He even forgot to drink the deer antler soup in his hand.

After a while, he grinned and said, "No wonder he's my brother! His luck is simply incredible!"

"Not only did he obtain a flawed immortal artifact in the lower realm, but upon arriving in the upper realm, he directly obtained a complete immortal artifact, which was even the weapon of an immortal king."

Don't listen to his boasting.

Seeing this, Yun Xi, who was sitting next to Shi An, couldn't help but chuckle. Then, while raising her hand to brush the dust off Shi An's shoulder, she said softly, "That day, we went through all sorts of hardships and risked dying in that space to finally obtain the Three-Pointed Double-Edged Sword."

After saying that, Yunxi seemed unwilling to dwell on the scenery of that day, and immediately changed the subject, saying, "As for you, judging from what you said before, you've been cultivating diligently these past few days. I wonder what kind of arduous cultivation you've been undergoing that made you complain?"

"Oh yeah, a bad embryo!"

Yunxi's words clearly reminded Huo Ling'er, who quickly looked up at Shi Hao with a puzzled expression: "What exactly have you been cultivating these past few days?"

"Don't even mention it."

Facing their gazes, Shi Hao's face immediately fell, and he sighed, "You have no idea, that old man is simply a madman. He said he wanted me to unify my body, magic, and spirit by cultivating his so-called invincible technique—the Eight-Nine Heavens Technique!"

"They actually made me carry this mountain on my back and run like crazy every day, and they wouldn't even let me use my magic. I'm just... "

In the end, Shi Hao almost couldn't help but swear, but he stopped himself instantly. It wasn't that he had no words, but rather that a figure appeared before him—the figure of an old man with an air of otherworldly grace.

"The Dao... the Dao Master!"

Shi Hao's voice stopped abruptly, as if his tongue had suddenly tied itself in knots. The soup ladle in his hand clattered into the pot, splashing a lot of soup. His face was full of astonishment and embarrassment.

He subconsciously stood up, looking at Qi Daolin who had suddenly appeared with a somewhat helpless expression.

Following his gaze, everyone saw an old man dressed in a dazzling golden Taoist robe, looking like a sage with an air of otherworldly grace, standing not far away. He had a half-smile on his face, and Taoist runes flowed among the fluttering fabric of his robe. It was none other than Qi Daolin.

"You little rascal, talking badly about your teacher behind his back, you've really got some nerve!"

Qi Daolin strolled over slowly with his hands behind his back, his gaze sweeping over Shi Hao before looking at Shi An and the others. He nodded slightly and said, "You've been running around quite a bit these past few days, and you've even made some new friends."
