Chapter 801 Shi Hao VS Crown King!

Shi Hao did not dwell on this issue with Cao Yusheng and the others.

He rearranged the three Enlightenment Stones into a triangular shape and invited Lin Dong, Luo Feng, Qian Renxue, Qin Hao, and others to meditate on them together.

The three Enlightenment Stones emitted a soft light, and patterns containing the ultimate truths of heaven and earth flowed across their surfaces. Just getting close to them could calm the mind and allow one to enter a deep state of enlightenment.

Han Li was the first to sit cross-legged, close his eyes, and probe his spiritual sense into the Enlightenment Stone, a thoughtful expression on his face.

Lin Dong and Luo Feng each chose an enlightenment stone and sat down cross-legged.

Cao Yusheng was a little worried. He looked around and lowered his voice, saying, "Brother Shi Hao, isn't it too ostentatious for you to use the Enlightenment Stones here? If someone passing by sees us, we might get ganged up on if the news gets out that three Enlightenment Stones are treasures that would tempt anyone."

Upon hearing this, Shi Hao's lips curled into a meaningful smile: "Zhang Yang? I'm going to be Zhang Yang. If they have the ability, then let them come and rob us. Otherwise, they'll just become transport personnel delivering cultivation resources to us."

Upon hearing this, Lin Dong's eyes lit up immediately: "Holy crap, Brother Shi Hao, are you going to use these three Enlightenment Stones as bait to catch fish?"

Luo Feng understood after hearing Lin Dong's words. He nodded slightly and said, "It is indeed a good idea. Instead of searching for opportunities everywhere, we should let them come to us. With our current strength, as long as we don't encounter any real old monsters, we can handle as many as come."

Shi Hao nodded and smiled, "That's exactly what I meant. These three Enlightenment Stones are my bait. I want to see how many people in this Immortal Ancient Secret Realm can resist this temptation."

Everyone understood immediately and said no more. They all sat cross-legged on the Enlightenment Stone and began to meditate.

Amidst the three thousand ancient bluestone paths, a chaotic mist surges, and the light of the three Enlightenment Stones appears and disappears in the mist, like dazzling pearls, radiating an alluring glow.

Time slips away quietly as one contemplates enlightenment.

Soon, some cultivators passing by on the bluestone road noticed them.

Those people stared wide-eyed at the light emanating from the three Enlightenment Stones from afar.

"Those are... Enlightenment Stones? Three Enlightenment Stones!"

"How is this possible? Who is so generous as to display three Enlightenment Stones outside?"

"That guy sitting in the middle... looks like Huang, the one from the lower realm who killed the successor of the Immortal Palace!"

"So it was him... No wonder he dared to be so arrogant. But... three Enlightenment Stones, that's too tempting."

"Don't be impulsive. Even Di Chong died at his hands. Wouldn't we be throwing our lives away if we went up there?"

The news of the Enlightenment Stone spread like wildfire along the ancient bluestone path.

More and more monks began to gather here.

However, after arriving here, they only watched the three Enlightenment Stones from a distance. Although their eyes were full of greed and desire, none of them dared to step forward.

Shi Hao sat on the Enlightenment Stone, his eyes closed, but his divine sense covered the entire area.

He could sense the presence of those people, and he could also sense their greed and fear.

To his disappointment, none of the cultivators gathered here dared to come and snatch the three Enlightenment Stones.

"These people are such cowards!"

Lin Dong also noticed the presence of those people and couldn't help but mutter, "Three Enlightenment Stones are right in front of them, and they don't even dare to come up and snatch them?"

Luo Feng laughed, "It's not that they don't want to take it, it's that they dare not. Di Chong's body isn't even cold yet, who would dare to be the first to stick their neck out?"

Han Li opened his eyes, glanced at the cultivators in the distance, and said in a low voice, "Although the news has been spread, it will take time to attract the real fish. Those small fry don't dare to make a move, but there will always be those who are not afraid of death."

Shi Hao didn't open his eyes, but simply said, "Then just wait, someone will come eventually."

Time passed day by day, and three days flew by in the blink of an eye.

More and more cultivators watched from afar, but no one dared to step forward.

Shi Hao gradually felt disappointed; it seemed that his bait plan was likely to fail.

Although these cultivators were greedy, they were all terrified by Di Chong's death and dared not provoke him at all.

However, just as Shi Hao was about to give up on the plan, his divine sense suddenly detected an aura that was different from others.

That aura was as heavy as a mountain, yet it also carried a sense of inclusiveness, like the ocean embracing all rivers.

The owner of that aura walked towards them unhurriedly, each step following a wondrous rhythm, as if they were one with the heavens and earth.

Shi Hao opened his eyes and looked up.

On the ancient bluestone road in the distance, a figure slowly materialized and came into his view.

The man was tall and slender, dressed in a simple blue robe, with a handsome face and a calm and composed demeanor beyond his years.

The other person's pace was neither fast nor slow, yet it seemed as if they could shrink the distance to an inch, covering a distance of tens of feet in a single step.

What is most astonishing is that this person is surrounded by a faint dragon aura, making him resemble a dormant dragon, silent yet containing earth-shattering power.

The appearance of this person instantly silenced the cultivators who had been watching from a distance.

Those people looked at him, their expressions changed drastically, and they all retreated, as if they had seen some terrifying being.

"They're ten-time champions!"

"He came too?"

"The Ten-Crown King, a legendary figure who participated in ten genius battles and won all ten, has never encountered an opponent. He is even more terrifying than Ning Chuan, the Six-Crown King!"

"Wasn't he supposed to be in seclusion deep within the Immortal Ancient Secret Realm? Why is he suddenly here?"

"Those three Enlightenment Stones, even he was alarmed!"

The crowd was buzzing with discussion.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on the man in the blue robe.

The Ten-Crown King, a more mysterious and terrifying existence in the Immortal Ancient Secret Realm than the Six-Crown King Ning Chuan.

He has appeared ten times, each time sweeping aside his contemporaries with unparalleled prowess; no one has ever been able to force him to use his full strength.

The emperor stopped in front of Shi Hao.

He glanced down at the three Enlightenment Stones, then looked up at Shi Hao with a calm gaze, devoid of any greed, only a faint interest.

"Three Enlightenment Stones are indeed rare."

The Emperor looked at him and said, his voice as gentle and calm as a spring breeze: "You are Huang? The lower realm cultivator who killed Ning Chuan's spirit body and Di Chong?"

Shi Hao stood up, looking at the legendary ten-time champion with no fear in his eyes, only the excitement of meeting a worthy opponent: "It's me. You're here to steal the Enlightenment Stone?"

The emperor shook his head and said calmly, "I just heard that an interesting person has appeared in the Immortal Ancient Secret Realm, so I came to take a look."

He paused, his gaze lingering on Shi Hao for a moment: "You're younger than I imagined."

Shi Hao smiled and said, "But you look older than I imagined..."

The two stood there and began to stare at each other, as if sparks were flying in the air.

The cultivators in the distance held their breath, watching this scene with bated breath.

The clash between the Ten-Crown King and Shanghuang is destined to be recorded in the annals of the Immortal Ancient Secret Realm.
