Shi Hao

Biodata

Power Progression

• Next objective: Open ten Heavenly Grottos. This remains a goal, not a completed breakthrough, in the supplied chapters 50.

Background / History

Shi Hao was born with a Supreme Bone. His cousin Shi Yi discovered it through his Double Pupils and told his mother, who extracted the bone and transplanted it into her own son. Shi Hao nearly died; the extraction occurred when he was one year old and caused his body to regress to an infant-like state 2 16 21.

His father, Shi Ziling, killed Shi Yi’s mother, and the incident became a major scandal in the Stone City Imperial Capital. Shi Hao subsequently grew up under the protection of Stone Village’s people. He missed his parents deeply and still did not know their whereabouts—or his grandfather’s—when his Supreme Bone regenerated 7 16 46.

The Willow Deity later used a secret technique and Shi Hao’s memories to reconstruct the circumstances of the theft. Learning how coldly Shi Yi had treated him strengthened Shi Hao’s determination to confront his cousin once he became powerful enough 21.

Appearance

• Eyes: Large, bright, dark, and glossy 7.
• Face and voice: A small, chubby face and a distinctly babyish, milky voice during his early childhood 7 35.
• Height: Stands 1.15 meters tall when described as four years old 15.
• Age discrepancy: His apparent age understates his chronological age because his body regressed after the Supreme Bone extraction; Xiao Tian notes that the supposedly four-year-old Shi Hao should actually be five 16.
• Regenerated Supreme Bone: His chest emits light brighter than the sun during its rebirth 46.

Personality

Shi Hao is affectionate, trusting, and protective of the people who raised him. Early on, he accepts Xiao Tian’s playful claim that sitting on his head protects a vital spot with complete seriousness. After witnessing the danger surrounding the Suanni, however, he insists that the villagers return home rather than risk their lives in a battle beyond their strength 8.

His desire to grow stronger is closely tied to protecting loved ones. The near-deaths of Stone Village elders spur him to accept Xiao Tian’s guidance, while memories of the wilderness massacre make him determined to obtain stronger techniques. Even when saddened by his own missing parents, he finds the consideration to comfort Xiao Feng about Xiao Tian’s absence 7 19 30.

His “Bear Child” reputation reflects his mischievousness and opportunism. He dismantles formations for valuable bones, destroys a Void God Realm Record Stele while trying to show off, and bargains with pavilion elders before accepting dangerous work. He is also easily embarrassed when Xiao Tian treats him like a small child 22 26 30 44.

Food is both a pleasure and a cultivation resource for him. He prepares cooking equipment before entering the Hundred Broken Mountains and hopes its primordial remnants will help him reach ten Heavenly Grottos. Despite his appetite, he says he cannot bring himself to eat humanoid creatures and rules out creatures that have eaten humans 35.
