Perfect: I am Shi An from Shicun, and I am Huang’s brother!

Chapter 371 The Gods Attack
Shi Hao wandered between the jade coffins with a frustrated expression. Each attempt was filled with anticipation, but the outcome was always the same. The jade coffins seemed determined to oppose him, and no matter how hard he tried, they would not open even a little bit.

Seeing Shi Hao like this, Shi An couldn't help but slowly walk to his side, pat his shoulder, and shake his head: "Little brother, let it go!"

"Brother An..."

However, Shi Hao did not give up despite Shi An's attempts to appease him. Instead, his eyes flashed with stubbornness and resentment as he gritted his teeth and said, "I am just not reconciled. Why can they all be recognized, but I can't? I was clearly number one."

"boom!"

Suddenly, a loud bang came from not far away, drawing everyone's attention.

Before a jade coffin, an ancient book and a seed of immortality lingered briefly before suddenly transforming into a rainbow of light, soaring into the sky, leaving the underground palace, and disappearing from sight.

Moreover, this scene acted as a fuse, triggering a chain reaction, with one loud bang after another and ancient books flying away.

At the same time, everyone finally discovered the reason: even if their cultivation path was in harmony with the ancient book, they would suffer a backlash and die if they did not have the blessing of immortal energy.

This discovery instantly changed the expressions of many people, who quietly retreated and no longer approached the jade coffin.

Seeing this, Shi Hao's eyes lit up, and he shouted directly to the crowd, "Hey, do you want to cooperate with me? You guys are in charge of opening the jade coffin, and I'll be in charge of suppressing the ancient book!"

His voice carried a hint of urgency, as if he couldn't wait any longer.

However, Shi An, who knew exactly what kind of opportunity Shi Hao had obtained this time, couldn't help but shake his head and smile. He then looked at the Emperor, Chang Gongyan and the others who had gathered there at some unknown time and said, "Brothers, now that you have obtained an opportunity, it would be better to leave this place as soon as possible."

"After all, the Immortal Ancient Realm has been broken, and outside sect leaders could break in at any time. It would be better for us to play it safe."

"Fourth brother is right. We should indeed be careful now that the Immortal Ancient City has been destroyed."

After listening to Shi An's suggestion, the emperor nodded slightly, his gaze lingering on the dome of the underground palace, as if he could see through the void and witness the changing world outside: "After all, good fortune is good, but one must be alive to enjoy it."

Then Chang Gongyan, Zhexian, and the others nodded in agreement, a hint of seriousness flashing in their eyes.

Thus, at Shi An's suggestion, the Emperor, the Immortal, Chang Gongyan, Shi Yi, Cao Yusheng, and others all moved and began to return along the original route.

As for Shi Hao...
"Gone! Gone!"

Shi Hao yelled and, carrying a jade coffin on his shoulder, followed the others and began to run wildly outside.

"This kid..."

Seeing this, Shi An couldn't help but chuckle, and then followed the others, completely ignoring the others who were still in a state of astonishment.

Along the way, many people noticed Shi Hao carrying the coffin and immediately turned to look at him with surprise.

"This guy... he actually carried the whole coffin away?"

"I heard it was because he was not recognized that he carried a jade coffin that had been opened by someone else."

"What? Huang can't get approval?! This..."

"This is really... wonderful."

"Hahaha, let him be so arrogant, now the tables have turned! Hahaha!"

Hearing the whispers of surprise and mockery around him, Shi Hao, who was running with the jade coffin on his shoulder, suddenly stopped and turned around abruptly, the jade coffin drawing a half-arc on his shoulder.

Who's laughing?!

Shi Hao, carrying the jade coffin on his shoulder, turned around with a dark face. His voice was not loud, but it carried a chilling aura, as if he would overturn the entire underground palace at any moment.

In an instant, all the snickers stopped abruptly, and the air seemed to freeze.

Those ancient freaks and prodigies who had been gloating were now trembling with fear, barely daring to breathe, lest they be targeted by this "demon king." Seeing that no one dared to speak again, Shi Hao didn't press the matter. After a cold snort, he turned around again and continued carrying the jade coffin, striding forward with a somewhat carefree and unrestrained air.

In fact, if it weren't for the urgency of the situation and the impending arrival of the celestial beings, he would never have let them go so easily.

Just as Shi An, Shi Hao, and the others were rushing back, several figures from the Xuanming Realm crossed over and successfully appeared in the Immortal Ancient Ruins, standing on the virtual arena.

There were six pioneers, each surrounded by auspicious energy and radiating divine light.

God!

Indeed, these six are all celestial beings, and not just ordinary celestial beings.

One of them had eyes like the blazing sun; a single glance could scorch the void, causing the distant indigenous people to feel fear and almost to prostrate themselves in worship.

The other person's eyes were like icy pools, their gaze cold and piercing. Even a casual glance from them could make one feel as if frozen in ice, unbearable to behold.

"Are these the gods from the outside world? So powerful!"

Many indigenous people trembled with fear, not even having the courage to look up and look directly at each other.

These six celestial beings were like supreme beings enshrined in a temple, with solemn appearances and outstanding bearing, coldly looking down at everyone.

However, they do indeed have the resources to do so.

Because they are the best of the best, carefully selected by each religion, they have all reached the limit on the path of the gods. If they go any further, they will reach the next realm.

"We have arrived, and it is time for this farce to end."

One of them spoke casually, his tone full of indifference, as if the conflict in the ancient immortal ruins was nothing more than a childish farce, not worth mentioning in his eyes.

"Hmph, those juniors think they can find great fortune in this ancient immortal land, but little do they know that they are just doing the work for others."

Another celestial being sneered, his gaze sweeping across the area below as if he could see through all the secrets. In his eyes, those young prodigies vying for opportunities in the underground palace were nothing more than ants fighting for food.

"First, find Huang. The leader has ordered that killing Huang is the top priority on this mission."

Another deity's eyes flashed like lightning as he surveyed the surroundings, his voice chilling to the bone.

Just then, Shi An and the others rushed out of the light gate and saw the six figures on the arena from afar, and their hearts tightened immediately.

"God?!"

The immortal frowned slightly, his bone flute twirling gently in his hand: "They've arrived faster than expected."

Meanwhile, outside the arena, people spotted them, and a series of exclamations rose with the wind.

"Huang is back!"

"Hey, why is he carrying a jade coffin?"

"Could that so-called great fortune be a jade coffin?"

"No, there's something in the coffin! It looks like an ancient scripture, and also a seed of immortality!"

At this moment, Shi Hao became the focus of attention. Everyone looked at him with burning eyes, even the natives.

Because he was the first to go in, and unlike the others, he carried the jade coffin back.
