Chapter 29 Assessing the Situation
In the primordial world, this great formation can directly absorb the vast spiritual energy between heaven and earth to maintain its operation, and it will hardly put too much burden on the caster.
But in the Perfect World, he alone has to bear all the costs.
This difference reminded him of a common phenomenon in the cultivation world described in the original work.
When cultivators from the upper realm descend to the lower realm, although they are suppressed by the world, they are able to unleash even greater power.
This is because cultivators with higher cultivation levels experience a strange amplification effect when casting spells in lower-level worlds.
His current situation is even more unique than that.
As one of the top worlds among all the heavens and myriad realms, the Primordial World is many levels higher than the Perfect World.
This huge level difference made the spells he cast in the Perfect World even more terrifying.
Amidst the devastation of the battlefield, the Rain King staggered backward.
The fate of the Golden Spider Venerable was still fresh in his mind, and now this young man was walking towards him step by step.
Rain King's body trembled uncontrollably; he had completely lost his previous arrogance.
The methods displayed by the young man before him were completely beyond his comprehension.
To be able to kill a Venerable at the tender age of thirteen is simply unheard of.
Just as the Rain King was about to beg for mercy, the Stone Emperor on the high platform suddenly stood up.
He made a hand seal, and a profound spell instantly disappeared into the void.
The next moment, a spatial fluctuation came from the direction of the Yue Prince's Mansion.
A figure fell out of the ripples and was thrown directly to Qin Yuan's feet by the Stone Emperor.
The man was dressed in fine clothes, but they were slightly disheveled, and he had a hint of impatience on his face.
He pushed aside the dust on the ground and roared at the Stone Emperor.
"Stone Emperor, what do you mean by this?"
Stone Emperor seemed not to hear the man's roar, but instead revealed an almost fawning smile and cupped his hands to Qin Yuan.
"Young friend, this is the former King of Yue of the Kingdom of Shi."
“In fact, everything I did was to prevent him from escaping. I have been secretly monitoring his every move for years.”
This sudden turn of events left everyone present stunned.
The ministers of the Stone Kingdom around them looked at each other, but soon they showed expressions of sudden realization.
No wonder the Stone Emperor was able to sit on the throne for so many years.
This ability to assess the situation and make judgments is truly extraordinary.
Shi Hao stood aside listening to Shi Huang's words, and the more he listened, the more he felt that something was wrong.
"Wait, what do you mean by the former King of Yue? Wasn't he the King of Yue?"
When Shi Hao asked a question, Shi Huang immediately seized the opportunity to begin his performance.
He coughed lightly, adopted a compassionate posture, and pointed at the former King of Yue on the ground to begin his scathing rebuke.
“This traitor committed atrocities while in power and should have been deposed from the throne long ago.”
The stone emperor paused, a kind smile appearing on his face.
"Speaking of which, your grandfather came to see me a few days ago."
"He is an upright man, and I originally intended to give him a suitable position and appoint him as the Demon King."
"Now is the perfect time. Whether the throne of the King of Yue should be inherited by you or by your grandfather, I can consider it."
Shi Huang's words seemed casual, but in reality, they were full of calculation.
First, he labeled the former King of Yue as a traitor, thus exonerating himself for his actions over the years.
Then they brought up Shi Hao's grandfather, trying to win him over.
Clearly, Shi Huang had grasped the situation and knew that Qin Yuan and Shi Hao had a very bad impression of him.
Therefore, he planned to take a roundabout approach and use the reward bestowed upon the Shi Hao family to curry favor with Qin Yuan.
Shi Huang was a master of this roundabout method of achieving his goal.
In order to win over the two brothers, he no longer cared about any other gains or losses.
The throne of Yue was given away without any regard for the reactions of the other ministers.
The moment Shi Hao heard the word "grandfather," his entire demeanor changed.
His body involuntarily leaned forward, and even his breathing became rapid.
In Shi Hao's short memory, his grandfather Shi Zhongtian was one of the few relatives he could remember clearly.
The old man who always loved and doted on him resolutely ventured into the perilous wilderness in search of the precious blood needed for his baptism, and was never heard from again.
What excited Shi Hao even more was that he had heard a few days ago that after his grandfather returned, he had caused a big scene at the Yu Wang Mansion and the Wu Wang Mansion because of his matter.
This news moved him and made him feel guilty, but he never had the chance to meet his grandfather in person.
Shi Huang keenly noticed the change in Shi Hao's reaction and immediately felt that he had found a breakthrough.
He straightened his clothes, took a step forward, and spoke in a gentler tone.
"Young friend, don't worry. Now that your grandfather has returned, I will definitely send people to search for him."
"Once we find him, you grandfather and grandson can be reunited, and I will reward you handsomely then."
These words were spoken with such sincerity that even the ministers standing nearby had to admire the emperor's quick thinking.
In a short time, they grasped what Shi Hao cared about most and took the opportunity to win him over.
Shi Hao was indeed moved by these words.
Although he was young, he deeply understood the principle of gratitude.
Moreover, the Stone Emperor did indeed show goodwill at this moment, so he bowed slightly.
"Thank you, Stone Emperor."
Qin Yuan watched Shi Hao's retreating figure and slowly took a step forward.
His aura of superiority over all living beings remained undiminished, but his tone had become much calmer.
"Since the Stone Emperor is willing to resolve this matter, I will not make things difficult for you."
"If you can really find Grandpa Shi, I can help you out in the future."
Upon hearing these words, the Stone Emperor immediately felt a sense of relief wash over him.
As the ruler of a country, he understood all too well the weight of Qin Yuan's promise.
Qin Yuan reached out and patted Shi Hao on the shoulder, then continued.
"Stone Emperor, if you have any news about Grandpa Stone, just send someone to the Dao Asking Pavilion to deliver the message."
After saying this, Qin Yuan said no more.
He gently took Shi Hao's hand, and the two of them vanished from the spot in an instant.
As Qin Yuan left, the invisible pressure that had been weighing on everyone's hearts suddenly dissipated.
The Stone Emperor was the first to slump onto the dragon throne, his forehead already soaked with cold sweat.
The feeling of standing on the edge of an abyss that he had just experienced made even this emperor, who had long held a high position, feel uneasy.
The other ministers were even more distraught, collapsing to the ground in despair.
Some people even started panting heavily, as if they had just been pulled out of the water.
The oppressive force of Qin Yuan's Primordial Chaos Power was so terrifying that even highly skilled martial artists would find it difficult to withstand.
After recovering, the Stone Emperor first announced that he would bestow the title of King of Yue upon the Great Demon God Shi Zhongtian, and then announced that he would bestow the title of Marquis of Huangtian upon Shi Hao.
Finally, the original titles of the Yue King's lineage and the Rain King were abolished.
The Stone Emperor originally intended to bestow a title upon Qin Yuan as well.
But then I thought, with the other party's strength, a mere title probably wouldn't even be of any interest.
Besides, if the other party doesn't give him face, it will only embarrass him, so he decided to give up for the time being.
Meanwhile, on a desolate plain a thousand miles from the capital, Qin Yuan suddenly stopped.
Shi Hao looked at Qin Yuan in confusion, not understanding why they had suddenly stopped.
"You two fairies have been following us for so long, why don't you show yourselves?"
