Simultaneous travel: I am rampant in the domestic area

Chapter 339 Have you ever risked your life for animal milk in your entire life?

Time just passes by so leisurely.

Rather than venturing out into the outside world, the emperors and sovereigns preferred to stay in Stone Village to train the young Desolate Emperor.

After all, the Lower Realm, the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, and the Immortal Realm won't run away; if they want to leave, they can leave whenever they want.

But Xiao Shihao is getting older every year, and if he misses this opportunity, he'll never have another chance.

Having already learned that rashly teaching the Heaven-Covering Dharma would bring about the Creation Tribulation, Lao Tzu, Shakyamuni, Xue Yueqing, and others all made changes to their own Dao and Dharma in response to the Ancient Dharma.

Strangely enough, while everyone else was in high spirits, Ye Fan, Wu Shi, and the Empress were the only ones who refused to move forward. Most of them simply sat cross-legged in front of the willow tree at the village entrance, just like Russell, discussing Dao with the Willow God.

After spending just half a month together, the emperors had a pretty good grasp of Xiao Shihao's temperament and character.

What surprised everyone the most was that this young boy actually loved animal milk so much.

This left them both amused and exasperated, astonished that the Desolate Emperor had such a dark past.

Then, the special training program for the young Heavenly Emperor was officially launched.

The mornings are for academic classes.

The main lecturers include Bertrand Russell, Lao Tzu, and the Great Emperor of Chaos.

Lao Tzu did not directly explain profound scriptures, but started with the most basic breathing and perception, guiding Shi Hao to experience the "qi" flowing between heaven and earth, and to feel the "li" contained in the growth of plants and the cycle of the sun and moon.

He taught the most fundamental and core principles of the Daoist scriptures, emphasizing the importance of understanding the universe, embracing harmony with the world, and solidifying the foundation for supreme Dao. This was not a specific technique for attacking or fighting, but rather the basis of all cultivation, ensuring that Shi Hao's future path would be incredibly solid.

Little Shi Hao listened with a mixture of understanding and confusion. Although he was young, he was naturally close to the Dao and had an extraordinary physique. He could often capture the profound and mysterious meaning in Lao Tzu's words. His little hands unconsciously gestured, causing the essence in his body to resonate slightly.

The Chaotic Ancient Emperor taught a method to stabilize one's Dao heart. Among all the Great Emperors, the Chaotic Ancient Emperor's cultivation method was not the strongest, his combat power was not the strongest, and the path he followed could not even be ranked in the top ten.

But when it comes to the tenacity of one's Dao heart and the stability of one's mindset, even Ye Fan wouldn't dare claim to be able to compare with him.

Russell, needless to say, obtained a smooth stone slab from somewhere and used his sword energy to carve dense, progressively deeper runes, which he then called "Three Years of True Understanding, Five Years of Formation - Shi Hao's Exclusive Perfect Childhood Plan".

He dissected the original true explanation, deleted and modified it, and compiled it into a book as tall as a person, titled "Three Years of True Explanation, Five Years of Formation," guaranteeing Shi Hao a perfect and fulfilling childhood.

Of course, the most important part is the combat skills class in the afternoon.

Many more people participated in this course, including Lingbao Tianzun, Jiuli Dadi, and Douzhan Shenghuang, all of whom were eager to try.

Compared to preaching, they would rather let Xiao Shihao become stronger through being beaten.

Most importantly, if anyone asks them in the future, they can proudly answer that they fought against the Desolate Emperor and even taught him a lesson.

Of course, they weren't without rewards for their teaching.

Russell's Special Edition Beast Milk: There's nothing Russell can't do, only things you can't imagine.

As a result, the children of Shi Village often saw little Shi Hao frowning and scribble on the ground with a twig while gazing longingly at the colorful milk bottles emitting an enticing aroma on the stone platform next to him, his motivation to study soaring to unprecedented heights.

And so, amidst the intertwining of blood and tears, and in the balance of pain and joy, a year passed, and the New Year arrived.

The New Year in the Great Wilderness doesn't involve many complicated rituals. It's simply a gathering of the whole village, a good meal, and singing and dancing around the bonfire.

The bonfire roared, the aroma of roasted meat filled the air, and children chased and played, their laughter echoing throughout.

This was the time Shi Hao and the other children looked forward to the most, a day when they could play freely and not have to think about cultivation.

Russell looked at the lively little one in the crowd and a "malicious" smile curled at the corner of his mouth.

He sidled up to Laozi and Shakyamuni and whispered a few words to them. Ye Fan watched from the side, raising an eyebrow.

Based on his understanding of Russell, he knew Russell was probably up to something bad again.

As expected, Lao Tzu paused slightly while stroking his beard, then chuckled. Shakyamuni also chanted a Buddhist mantra, but his eyes held a hint of eager curiosity.

Before long, the other emperors also gathered over, all showing the same expression.

The next moment, the group silently arrived at an open space under the willow tree outside Stone Village, and after obtaining the Willow God's permission, they began their actions.

As Russell raised his hand, countless mysterious runes emerged from the void, intertwining and flashing, drawing upon the essence of heaven and earth.

Lao Tzu gently waved his sleeves, and the two streams of Yin and Yang circulated, evolving into earth, water, fire, and wind, thus constructing the prototype of the world.

Shakyamuni Buddha clasped his hands together, chanting a low hymn. Golden rays of light entered the void, stabilizing the space and empowering the mind.

With a flick of his finger, the Azure Emperor depicted the details of the blooming blue lotus.

Xue Yueqing, Jiuli, Lingbao, and others also made their moves one after another.

Finally, the Willow God appeared. The willow tree suddenly glowed, and a dazzling light shot up, radiating brilliant rays that pierced the sky. Branches that looked like they were cast from jade danced in the sky, like celestial swords or divine chains.

With the combined efforts of dozens of supreme beings, an ancient yet magnificent nine-story pagoda appeared out of thin air.

The entire piece appears to be cast from bronze and divine stone, with countless intricate and unpredictable runes engraved on its surface, exuding a breathtaking aura and an ancient Taoist charm.

The huge commotion immediately attracted the attention of all the villagers in Stone Village.

The villagers rushed out of the village, staring in disbelief at the sudden appearance of this "miracle".

Wow! What a huge platform!

"Was it done by the High Priest and Mr. Luo?"

"What is this for?"

Xiao Shihao squeezed to the front of the crowd, his big, dark eyes filled with curiosity and excitement.

Russell cleared his throat, his voice carrying throughout the room: "Ahem! It's almost New Year's, time for the little guy's year-end assessment."

assessment?

Another study session?

Without any hesitation, Shi Hao silently took a step back and hid behind his good brothers.

Russell chuckled and looked at Shi Hao: "Little one, do you dare to go up and try it? For every level you clear, you'll be rewarded with a bottle of top-grade beast milk!"

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and nine jade bottles, each exuding a unique fragrance and shimmering with light, appeared in the air. The enticing milky aroma instantly made Xiao Shihao's mouth water.

But that wasn't all. Russell then magically produced an enormous jade bottle, bigger than his head, filled with a shimmering, multicolored liquid: "See this? The Super Invincible Supreme Deluxe All-Purpose Beast Milk! If you can clear all nine levels in one go, this is yours!"

"Gulp!" Little Shi Hao swallowed hard, his eyes widening like saucers as he stared intently at the oversized bottle of beast milk, his little fists clenching instantly!
Why are you hesitating?
In this life, there is always something you have to fight for!

For Shi Hao at this moment, nothing was more worth risking his life for than this bottle of beast milk!
"I'll charge!" Little Shi Hao didn't hesitate at all. His childish voice was filled with unprecedented determination. He rubbed his hands together, pushed aside the brothers blocking his way, and was about to rush up the pagoda.

"Wait a minute," Laozi said gently, reminding us, "Although this arena is just a formality for us, the challenges inside are not easy. We must be careful and act according to our abilities."

"Don't worry, old man, nothing can stop me!" Shi Hao patted his chest loudly, showing no fear whatsoever.

Under the curious, encouraging, and slightly worried gazes of all the villagers, little Shi Hao took a deep breath, his small body bursting with astonishing momentum, and leaped forward, crashing into the doorway of the first level of the pagoda.

With a flash of light, his figure disappeared at the entrance to the first floor.

The first floor of the pagoda.

The space shifted, and a blurry, illusory figure of a Taoist appeared, holding a whisk. His movements seemed slow, yet they stirred the surrounding air currents, evolving into a simplified Tai Chi posture. This person was none other than a projection of Lao Tzu.

His realm was the same as Shi Hao's, both being at the Cave Heaven realm.

Little Stone gave a low shout and charged forward without thinking.

It wrestled with Lao Tzu's projection.

Lao Tzu's projection showed no mercy; every move was aimed at risking his life.

If Little Stone wants to get the beast's milk, he'll have to fight me to the death.

This is the nine-story immortal tower that Russell and others created in imitation of the Void God Realm.

From the first to the ninth level, each level generates a projection of a powerful being from all the myriad realms.

In the first cycle, the projected level is the same as the person who challenged the tower. After reaching the ninth floor, they will be teleported back to the first floor and randomly assigned to another projected level. However, this projected level will be stronger than the person who challenged the tower, and so on.

The highest level of projection is Emperor, which is also known as the Supreme Being.

Therefore, this tower will remain useful until Shi Hao reaches the Supreme Realm.

Even if someone dies inside the tower, it won't cause any harm to their body, but the feeling of death won't be masked.

Ye Fan stared at the virtual screen showing the live stream, his lips twitching uncontrollably.

It's hard to believe that if Shi Hao really went through several cycles of reincarnation and arrived in the Void God Realm, wouldn't he be at the peak of 2,500 points, dominating the Diamond rank?

I wonder how that young, peerless immortal king will compete with this little Shi Hao.

It's not impossible for them to kill each other upon first meeting.

In the scene, Shi Hao was unleashing his full power, his body shimmering with talismanic light, and the six great caverns were filled with surging blood and qi.

Yes, Shi Hao, who is only four years old now, has already successfully opened up six great cave heavens.

And its foundation is so solid it's unimaginable.

Lao Tzu projected a Tai Chi diagram, propelling two yin-yang fish, one black and one white, toward Shi Hao.

Shi Hao remained calm and composed. Silver light, like water, emanated from his body and swiftly transformed into a silver disc that appeared behind him. It was pure white and sacred, about the same height as him, almost enveloping him, and radiating a silvery glow.

He stood on the earth like a god, his whole body radiant. The silver disc was like the divine moon descending from the heavens, making him appear divine and extraordinary.

At the same time, he spread his five fingers on his right hand, and silver light intertwined, like lightning, transforming into an ancient demonic bird that soared into the sky and pounced on Laozi.

Lao Tzu smiled faintly. Amidst the rolling sound waves, just as Xiao Shihao's powerful punch came down, he still slowly and gently raised his arms from his waist, as if gently brushing the surface of water, as if holding a large ball of lead and mercury in his arms, with his two arms raised diagonally upwards, one forward and one downward.

In an instant, he traversed a distance of over a hundred feet and arrived in front of Shi Hao, forcefully pressing Shi Hao down.

Shi Hao roared. Golden blood energy surged up from his body like an abyss and a sea, and then his feet exploded, causing the ground within a hundred feet to crack and sink instantly without any obstruction.

On the ruined ground, rubble the size of fists and even heads shot into the air with a single stomp of his foot.

Lao Tzu effortlessly moved his hand, his figure flickering in and out of existence, instantly conjuring up countless phantoms.

Shi Hao, having been trained by Russell and the others for over a year, was certainly no pushover.

As he retreated rapidly, lightning surged and roared between his five fingers, changing the color of the sky and earth, and bursting forth with boundless heat.

With an invisible shattering sound, a pillar of lightning, a kilometer in diameter, suddenly descended from the sky.

The intense light was overwhelming, enough to tear space apart, and so bright that people couldn't look directly at it.

The lightning pillar enveloped the space where Laozi was located, and countless lightning beasts surged and tore and gnawed within it.

However, Shi Hao did not relax at all. In just a moment, the power of the second rune was ready.

Runes flickered and changed between his fingers, from fire runes to lightning runes and then to wind runes, accompanied by a series of booming sounds.

The others in Shicun were puzzled; they only saw Shi Hao attacking the air around him.

"Mr. Luo, what's wrong with Little Stone?" The old village chief finally couldn't help but ask Russell and the others.

"Don't worry, Village Chief, Little Stone isn't acting recklessly. Just watch and see," Russell explained with a smile.

The next moment, Lao Tzu's figure appeared abruptly amidst the gaps in the countless runes.

In the blink of an eye, he flashed in front of Shi Hao, unleashing boundless blood energy.

boom!
A tremendous, thunderous explosion resounded.

A hand pressed down on Shi Hao's head and slammed him into the floor.

Having pioneered the art of digital manipulation, he had long since grasped the patterns and weaknesses of all magical techniques used in events.

Should the difficulty be reduced?

Lao Tzu frowned and said.

Because he suddenly realized that this so-called battle between people of the same realm did not mean that he, at his original realm, would fight against Shi Hao.

Instead, he used his current knowledge and perspective to suppress his cultivation level before engaging in battle.

These are completely two concepts.

“You have to believe him, he is Shi Hao,” Russell said quietly.

Sure enough, in the next instant, Shi Hao grabbed Laozi's wrist hard, and with a pull and tug, he dragged him back to his side, and they started exchanging punches.

In the end, with a whooshing sound, Lao Tzu's phantom image paused slightly before dissipating.

Level 1 passed!

A bottle of fragrant animal milk appeared out of thin air and landed in Shi Hao's hands.

The next moment, the sound of bones shattering rang out inside Shi Hao's body. Countless horrific wounds suddenly tore open on his naked body, and then rapidly grew back under his abnormal self-healing power.

Then it cracked open again and grew back, repeating this cycle dozens of times. Shi Hao's face turned deathly pale, and he finally couldn't help but sit down on the ground, panting heavily!

The villagers of Shicun were dumbfounded. Defeating even one of them was so difficult, let alone breaking through nine levels.

However, Shi Hao only took a sip of the beast milk in his hand and then stepped into the entrance to the second level without stopping.

Fortunately, Russell had not overlooked this point. A pale white light shone through, and Shi Hao's condition returned to its peak.

As those tiny particles of light coalesced in the field, a figure appeared on the spot.

His facial features were distinct and deep, like a sculpture. He had two dragon horns on his head, and faint scales at the corners of his eyes. He held a Luban lock in his left hand and a long spear with gold and black intertwined in his right hand.

"Rock... Rock King Emperor?"

Ye Fan looked at Russell in surprise.
