Chapter 837 The Critical Moment (2)

The young Half-step Demon Sage replied, “Martial Uncle, don’t worry. I’ve already remembered what you said.”

The burly elder Demon Saint nodded and said, “Alright, now you can go together.”

The four young masters of the Demon Clan responded. With a flash, they turned into flowing lights and entered the silver brilliant flames. In an instant, the silver lights which had been calm suddenly trembled. After a few breaths, with a bang, a mass of blood spurted out from it, and then the mass of silver lights disappeared into the void.

The burly elder Demon Saint lowered his head and observed the blood. He nodded slightly and said, “What a pity. It seems that a Sky-fleeing Stone Key can only transmit three living creatures at most. The fourth can’t escape from being killed.”

One of the experts of the Demon Clan who had entered the silver lights was rejected by the transmission formation and was killed right away.

Apparently, the burly elder Demon Saint had realized it long ago.

He did not point out how dangerous it could be. Instead, he deliberately risked their lives to test the limits of the transmission formation because he wanted to send in one more person. After all, sending one more person in would mean another opportunity. Unfortunately, he failed in the end.

“Huh? One grid of the chessboard formation has also been destroyed?”

The burly elder Demon Saint soon noticed that the grid containing the Sky-fleeing Stone Key had disappeared on the surface of the stone table after transmitting once. It left no trace as if it had never existed.

It was far beyond his expectations.

“Could it be that the chessboard formation can only transmit people unidirectionally, and each grid of the chessboard can only transmit people once?” He realized something.

There were over forty grids in the chessboard formation. In other words, it could, at the very most, activate forty transmissions.

After quietly observing the chessboard formation for a while, the burly elder Demon Saint turned around and left.

At the moment when he walked out of the mysterious cave, he also felt that he wanted to go to the Great Abyss and explore it. However, thinking of the terrifying young martial arts genius of the Human Clan on the ground, he finally gave up.

Soon after he left, other figures appeared in the mysterious cave.

This time, it was still experts of the Demon Clan.

“Sect Master, why were you so polite to those weak members of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect from the Human Clan on the ground just now? Hum, if I were you, I would have killed anyone who dared to speak like that,” a young man in the white fox-fur robe said angrily.

“Do I need you to teach me how to do things?” The intimidating stout old man with snow-white hair and beard sneered.

“Ah, Sect Leader, please don’t be angry. That’s not what I meant,” the young man in the white fox-fur robe said immediately.

The intimidating stout old man with snow-white hair said, “Ding Hao, the Saber and Sword Addict, is not an ordinary person. Don’t provoke him if you want to survive. This time, we will enter the immortal land together. You must remember to find a way to meet me as soon as you enter the immortal land.”

“Yes,” the young man in the white fox-fur robe replied.

In fact, he was thinking that once he entered the immortal world, he wouldn’t contact this old man again. As long as he became an immortal, he wouldn’t die or be killed. At that time, he wouldn’t be bullied by this ill-tempered old man.

When they were talking to each other, the intimidating stout old man with snow-white hair also took out a prismatic Sky-fleeing Stone Key and placed it on the chessboard transmission formation.

The silver lights appeared.

After hesitating for a moment, they finally gritted their teeth, turned into flowing lights, and disappeared completely.

In the quiet cave, another chessboard grid on the stone table disappeared as expected, as if an invisible hand was wiping away the traces of the grid little by little.

Peace was restored in the mysterious cave.

However, the peace did not last long.

Experts of the Human Clan and the Demon Clan came to the cave one after another, all with a Sky-fleeing Stone Key in their hands. They activated the chessboard transmission formation and disappeared with the silver lights.

These were all lucky young men selected by the experts and forces that had obtained the Sky-fleeing Stone Keys. They were all below the Immortal Realm and wanted to enter the immortal land to obtain the immortal fate with the help of the chessboard formation.

These people were representatives selected by the experts in the Divine Realm from all over the world. That was why they got here one after another orderly. No one tried to secretly kill them or rob them of the Sky-fleeing Stone Keys.

With time passing by, the grids on the chessboard formation disappeared one by one.

In the afternoon, there were only five or six grids left on the chessboard transmission formation. At least a hundred people had been transmitted by the chessboard transmission formation. It was hard to tell whether they had gone to the immortal land and whether danger or luck was waiting for them at the end of the formation. They had to resign themselves to their fates.

On the ground, Ding Hao was still patiently guarding the Back Mountain.

For Wang Juefeng, the cynical man, his task was to show the route to the experts who just arrived and told them not to cross the border.

With Ding Hao and the other two geniuses of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, the Phoenix and the Mad Saber here, nothing unexpected had happened from the beginning to the present.

With a stream of light flickering in the distance, Song Que and Bai Quanshui appeared in front of him.

Together with them were several experts from the Blue Cloud Sect and the Extermination Swordsmanship Sect who accompanied them here.

“What? Are Brother Song and Brother Bai also taking the risk to enter the chessboard formation?”

Ding Hao looked surprised. Both Song Que and Bai Quanshui were the future heads of super sects. They had a bright future and lack nothing. They were so highly ranked that even god-level experts could not control them. Therefore, there should be no reason for them to enter this uncertain transmission formation to obtain the fate of immortal.

“We are here to try our luck,” Song Que said with a smile.

Bai Quanshui also said seriously, “Brother Song and I are not a genius like you, Brother Ding. Now that the world is in chaos, if we don’t give it a go, I’m afraid that we won’t have a place to stay soon. You’ve also mentioned the proverbial slow-boiling frog. I don’t want to be like the frog in your story that is cooked thoroughly little by little and finally lose the ability to resist.”

Experts like Bai Quanshui and Song Que had entered the Martial Grand Emperor Realm before they were three hundred years old. Throughout the history of martial arts of the Human Clan, Bai Quanshui and Song Que were already considered geniuses. They could enter the Sage Realm or even break into the Immortal Realm three hundred years later. After all, the Human Clan was inherently weak. However, people of the Demon Clan were born with magical powers due to their bloodline and could enter the Saint Realm when they were a hundred years old.

But now, with changes in the world’s tidal forces on the Land of Infinity, a large number of geniuses had emerged from the Demon Clan. Prince Primeval and Princess Primordial were already in the Sage Realm. In the battles of Life-and-Death Arena, Zhang Fan and Xie Jieyu’s strength had also shocked all parties. In comparison, Song Que and Bai Quanshui were already left behind if they had not yet reached the Sage Realm with their ages, statuses, and resources.

The rise of Ding Hao and the others made Song Que, Bai Quanshui, and the others feel very stressed. They also made the super sects such as the Blue Cloud Sect and the Extermination Swordsmanship Sect realize the changes of the world. As super sects, although they had a deep foundation, they would be eliminated from the cruel world where only the fittest survive if they refuse to make progress.

This time, the emergence of the Sky-fleeing Stone Keys was an opportunity for all sects.

Of course, the Blue Cloud Sect and the Extermination Swordsmanship Sect wouldn’t overlook it.

Originally, someone else was selected to enter the chessboard transmission formation. However, Bai Quanshui and Song Que finally decided to enter the formation on their own. Even if they had to pay the price of their lives, they would still have a try.

Once they obtained the immortal fate, they would skyrocket as a Martial Sage and be immortal.

Otherwise, with the changing of the Land of Infinity, they would probably not be able to wait for another three hundred years. They would have changed from the genius leaders of the new generation to a stepping stone for others and would eventually be forgotten.

“If that’s the case, this way please!” Ding Hao cupped his hands.

Song Que wanted to ask if Ding Hao would also enter the chessboard formation to try his luck. However, thinking over it, there were too many people there. If Ding Hao’s whereabouts were leaked out, it would be detrimental to the future development of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect. Therefore, he did not ask any more questions. He said a few words to Ding Hao, turned around, and left.

At this time, the sun had slowly set in the distant ice-capped mountains in the west.

There was a vast expanse of white in this region. Snowflakes danced on the mountains like silver snakes, and the plains were covered with white snow.

The setting sun was as red as blood, dyeing the silver-coated ground red.

There was still a very short time before nightfall, and it was almost time. After waiting for a while, no one else came to the Back Mountain. It seemed that the forces that had obtained the Sky-fleeing Stone Keys had entered the chessboard formation.

Ding Hao turned around to look at Li Lan beside him.

Li Lan also turned around but did not look at him.

From her beautiful profile, it could be seen that the corners of the mouth of this powerful female head from the Northern Region were twitching slightly. She tried her best to control her emotions and did not cry out loud. Thinking of the fact that she would soon be separated from the person she loved the most and that they might be separated forever, even the marble-hearted people could not control themselves.

Ding Hao whispered, “Xiaolan, I’m leaving.”

Before he finished his words, he had turned into a stream of light and headed for the depths of the Great Abyss.

Li Lan raised her hand and finally stood still quietly without saying anything.

After a while, a clear fluctuation of space power elements came from the bottom of the Great Abyss. The chessboard formation had been activated, which meant that Ding Hao had activated the chessboard transmission formation with the Sky-fleeing Stone Key and finally left.

It was also at this moment that something strange happened.

Countless streaks of extremely powerful Demon Aura surged over from a distance and covered the sky as if black clouds were imposing. The horrifyingly powerful Demon Aura surged wildly and engulfed the entire Swordsmanship-seeking Sect.

“Hahaha, Ding Hao is gone, and the blood debt of our Heavenly Demon Temple should be settled.”

“The Demon Buffalo Sect in Black Mountain is here! Give me back the life of my son!”

Manic laughter suddenly came from the horrible black clouds all over the sky. Demon bodies as huge as mountains loomed in the black clouds of Demon Aura and thousands of demons gathered around. The horrible light beam shot out of huge scarlet eyes, which resembled pools of blood, and finally fell on the ground.
