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

Chapter 410 Alone? Severing Eternity

At that moment, he could clearly see the loneliness in his own eyes.

One person, in that lifetime!
He exists alone in the world, standing above all paths, tasting loneliness, enduring the sorrow of eternity, and when he looks back, there is nothing left!

This is the scene that Shi Hao saw!

However, just as he was deeply shaken by it...

Suddenly, he saw the expression in his eyes change abruptly, no longer showing desolation, and at the same time, some figures appeared around him.

Though few in number, it was no longer just one person.

"How is this going?"

Shi Hao was filled with surprise and doubt, his eyes fixed on the future scene at the end of the river of time, trying to find the answer from the blurry yet shocking scene.

The future self was shrouded in an aura of extreme loneliness, as if isolated from the entire world, bearing alone the vicissitudes of time and the desolation of eternity.

But in that instant, his expression softened considerably, and the melancholy in his eyes vanished without a trace.

Although the figures surrounding him were blurry, Shi Hao vaguely felt that their auras were somewhat familiar, as if he had seen them somewhere before.

"Who...could they be?"

Shi Hao muttered to himself, his heart filled with doubt and anticipation.

He tried hard to see the faces of those figures clearly, but the power of the river of time was too mysterious and powerful. No matter how hard he concentrated, those figures were always shrouded in a thin mist, making it difficult to see their true faces.

Just as Shi Hao was lost in thought, the River of Time suddenly churned violently, and a powerful and mysterious force surged toward him.

In an instant, Shi Hao felt his body being violently pulled by an invisible giant hand, and the future scene before him began to blur and dissipate rapidly.

"No!"

Shi Hao roared inwardly, reaching out his hand unwillingly, trying to grasp the fading scene, but to no avail.

"puff!"

Finally, Shi Hao's body trembled violently, and he suddenly opened his eyes, waking up. He was surrounded by azure clouds, protected by the power of the Willow God.

Everything that just happened seemed like an eternity, but in reality, it hadn't been that long.

Even so, his forehead was covered in cold sweat and his heart was pounding.

"What did you see?"

Shi An, who was standing beside him, keenly sensed the fluctuation in his younger brother's aura and asked in a low voice.

Qi Daolin, the Immortal Being, the old dean, and others also cast concerned glances their way.

Facing the concerned gazes of the group, Shi Hao took a deep breath and, after forcibly suppressing the turmoil in his heart, spoke, his voice somewhat hoarse: "Some... fragments of the future, not clearly visible."

Although he spoke, he couldn't describe the eerie feeling of going from extreme loneliness to sudden change, nor could he be sure whether the sudden appearance of the figure was a turning point or an even greater variable.

Liu Shen turned around, equally puzzled, but did not ask too many questions. Instead, she said softly, "The future is uncertain, and what we see may not be the end. Where the heart leads, the body follows. The path under our feet is more important than the scenery in our eyes."

Her words carried a strange Taoist charm, calming the turmoil in Shi Hao's mind.

Yes, whether the future holds the challenge of facing eternity alone or other uncertainties, what he needs to do is to take each step well in the present and become strong enough to face any possibility.

At the same time, Shi An also spoke up: "Brother, I don't know about the future you see, but I want to tell you that you... will not be alone!"

Upon hearing this, Shi Hao's heart skipped a beat. He turned to look at Shi An beside him, only to find his gaze calm and resolute, devoid of any hint of jest, as if stating an immutable truth. Deep within those eyes, so similar to his own, seemed to lie something far more profound than the future Shi Hao had glimpsed.

"Brother Xiao An, you..."

Shi Hao opened his mouth, wanting to ask something, but found himself at a loss for words.

Shi An's words were like a boulder thrown into the lake of his heart, stirring up towering waves. They seemed to give a vague but unsettling direction to the transformation he had just witnessed from loneliness to uncertainty.

Liu Shen also glanced sideways, her cool gaze lingering on Shi An for a moment. Her gaze seemed to penetrate the surface and see something deeper, but she did not speak. Only the azure glow flowing around her seemed to soften a little.

Qi Daolin, the Undying Spirit, and the others exchanged bewildered glances. They couldn't understand the cryptic exchange between the two brothers, but they sensed that Shi An's words seemed to have a hidden meaning and contained an indescribable confidence.

But they all knew very well that these two brothers were no ordinary people. In particular, the heaven-defying methods that Liu Shen had just displayed and the conversation that seemed to glimpse the future made them feel that he was unfathomable and dared not interrupt.

"Mastering multiple precious techniques does not necessarily make one the strongest. On the other side of the borderlands, they have already thoroughly understood the laws and principles of this world."

"Shi Hao, I hope you can be like your brother and truly forge your own path!"

After a long while, the Willow God left behind a single word, and then could no longer hold on. His body began to disintegrate, turning into strands of light that disappeared into the mountains and rivers, nourishing the heavens and earth.

"Young man, the road ahead is long, don't panic."

Seeing the Willow God dissipate, Kunpengzi stepped forward, patted Shi Hao on the shoulder, and then turned and left without even glancing at the Undying Being.

Seeing this, the immortal being also stepped forward and patted Shi Hao on the other shoulder before leaving as well.

Finally, Qi Daolin came over and looked at Shi Hao, saying, "Now that things are over, I should go to the no-man's land to continue searching for the Supreme Hall."

After saying that, Qi Daolin turned to leave.

"Master, actually..."

But before he could take a step, Shi Hao suddenly spoke up and stopped him: "You don't need to go looking for the Supreme Hall, because I have already obtained its inheritance."

"What did you say?"

Upon hearing Shi Hao say that he had already obtained the inheritance of the Supreme Hall, Qi Daolin immediately stopped in his tracks, as if struck by lightning. He turned around stiffly, his eyes filled with shock and disbelief.

"You... say it again, what did you get?"

Qi Daolin's voice trembled slightly; the news was too shocking for him.

Shi Hao did not avoid the other party's gaze. Instead, he nodded solemnly, his expression more serious than ever before: "I said, I have obtained the inheritance of the Supreme Hall."

"boom!"

These words were like an ancient star falling and crashing into the hearts of Qi Daolin and the old dean, stirring up a tidal wave in their hearts.

"Stinky boy!"

Qi Daolin suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Shi Hao's shoulders with both hands. The force was so great that Shi Hao frowned slightly, but he could feel the slight trembling in his master's hands.

Qi Daolin's lips trembled, his voice hoarse: "When...when did you obtain it? Why have you never mentioned it before?"

His voice was urgent, yet he was forcibly suppressing immense excitement.

Seeing this, Shi Hao first glanced at Shi An beside him, and then looked at Qi Daolin and slowly said, "When I was in the lower realm, I had already obtained the inheritance of the Supreme Hall."

Shi Hao told him the truth, saying that since he had decided not to hide it anymore, there was no need to cover it up.
