Chapter 1014
“Ding Hao, as a member of the Human Clan, you colluded with the Demon Clan to kill your compatriots. Aren’t you ashamed?” The elder of the River Palace shouted, “Yes, there is a grudge between us and the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, but it’s a matter between us humans. No matter what, we should solve it by ourselves. You used the power of the Demon Clan to attack us, which is an act of deceiving your master and shaming your ancestors. I believe that the ancestors of your Swordsmanship-seeking Sect will despise you if they know about it.”
Ding Hao sneered and said, “Is that so? So, I’m in the wrong now?”
“That’s right.” The elder of the River Palace shouted.
In fact, he was shocked to the extreme. He did not expect to meet Ding Hao on such an occasion. Did this mean that the people of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect had returned to Snow Province? This was definitely shocking news for the River Palace. The elder had to find a way to spread the news, otherwise, the world situation would be different.
He wasn’t prepared for seeing Ding Hao here, so he could only smear him with words.
“It’s said that Ding Hao cherishes his disciples very much. Maybe I can make a fuss about it.”
Ding Hao said with a faint smile, “If what you said is true, what am I supposed to do then?”
“If you are still aware that you belong to the Human Clan, you should fight your way out of the encirclement with me. After defeating the Demon Clan, we can solve the problem between us. Only with such courage will you deserve to be the true Holy Father of the Human Clan in the Snow Province,” The elder of the River Palace said righteously.
After hearing this, Ding Hao laughed out loud.
“You...” The elder’s expression changed greatly. He had a bad feeling.
Sure enough, after Ding Hao finished laughing, he showed a disdainful smile and said, “What a dumbass! You are acting foolishly, and you want me to go down with you? Do you think I am some little kid and will be smeared by you with just a few words?”
Upon hearing this, the elder’s face changed greatly. He looked utterly shocked when he said, “You... you’re shameless. Are you going to be completely in cahoots with the Demon Clan?”
The disdainful expression on Ding Hao’s face grew stronger. He sneered and said, “You said that I’m in cahoots with the Demon Clan, but as a matter of fact, you’re in cahoots with the Divine Grace and the God’s Palace! I didn’t expect that the River Palace would be involved with those scums. You’ve already become traitors of all creatures in the Land of Infinity. Humph, to deal with turncoats like you, we all have the right to kill you.”
The elder of the River Palace was rendered speechless. After a long while, he said, “You are talking nonsense. God’s Palace is a righteous force. How can it be compared with those damned mercenaries...”
“Shut up!” Ding Hao’s expression was fierce. He suddenly shouted, “You simply have no shame, do you? If those devilish mercenaries hadn’t been instigated by God’s Palace, how could they have come here? The space gate of the Land of Divine Grace is under the control of God’s Palace. Without their permission, how could those mercenaries come here? You old dog, you brought shame to the Infinite Human Clan.”
The elder’s expression changed drastically.
“Ding Hao knows everything. Why does he know so much about Land of Divine Grace?”
Ding Hao continued, “Originally, I just wanted to get back to you for the bullying you did and spare you a living. After all, your people also made great achievements in the holy war back then. I didn’t expect that you would collude with foreign devils. It seems that I can’t spare you any longer.”
Speaking of this, his figure flashed as he instantly came to the River Warship.
“I shall personally send you to hell, so this would not be considered colluding with the Demon Clan. Rest in peace now.” Ding Hao made a move. With a thought, the Sword Intent of the Beginning of Spring and the Rain Water broke out. His move created illusions all over the place. When it began to rain, raindrops fell on the warship, which had originally been strong enough to resist the full attacks of Sage Realm Master. Like rotten wood, it was broken down piece by piece.
Almost instantly, the entire warship broke apart.
Ding Hao’s Sword Intent had improved stronger and stronger. Now, there was no need for him to deliberately detonate the raindrops. Only by gently falling could they pierce through everything.
Every raindrop would be a wisp of killing intent.
There were hundreds of experts of the River Palace on the warship, but none of them could escape, including the elder of the River Palace. Before he died, his whole body was almost shot into a sieve by the raindrops as endless fear drowned him. “Ding Hao’s strength is many times stronger than before. This kind of Sword Intent can definitely kill a God Realm Master...
“I shouldn’t have coveted the mysterious crystals of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect back then.” When he was losing consciousness, he sighed in his heart. “The higher-ups of the divine hall have made a mistake by messing with such a disaster. I’m afraid that in the future, the River Palace will be destroyed in his hands... It shouldn’t be!”
His body turned into a rain of light and shattered in the void.
After this was done, Ding Hao worked his mind, and the illusion disappeared. He came to the side of the five disciples of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect and retreated far away. He did not deal with the people of God’s Palace.
Ding Hao knew Huo Jun, the God Realm Master. He was one of the four superiors of Wind, Fire, Lightning, and Thunder under the command of the Western Expedition Army back in those days. He used to be under Ding Shengtan’s command. Unfortunately, he later turned to the 13th Divine Prince. In the battle of the Hundred Thousand Mountains, he fought with Feng Xingli and survived.
Although there was killing intent in Ding Hao’s heart, he knew that since the Great Phoenix Saint didn’t make a move and kept this man alive, she might have a special plan about it. He had already killed the people of the River Palace, so he shouldn’t make any more trouble.
On the other side.
Standing on the bow of the black ship of God’s Palace, Huo Jun looked at the Great Phoenix Saint and said calmly, “I didn’t expect that there would be such an expert like you in this desolate world...”
In the void.
The figure of the Great Phoenix Saint was full of Awareness of the Tao. She was like a fairy that had descended from heaven. She was extremely beautiful, almost flawless, like a belle in a painting. Her temperament was noble, and her whole body was full of the aura of a True Phoenix. She glanced at Huo Jun but did not say anything. She just raised her hand gently as an invisible force gushed out.
It was just like a breeze.
However, it made Huo Jun’s expression change drastically.
He took a step back, and there were hundreds of tiny flames in his palm. If one looked closely, they would find that those flames were flaming divine dragons condensed to the extreme. Although they were small in size, they contained terrible power. Waves of dragon roars resounded through the sky.
The tiny divine dragons flew out of his palm and circled around him, protecting Huo Jun.
Beside him, the experts of the God’s Palace hadn’t figured out what was going on. Like sand sculptures in a hurricane, their clothes broke apart and were sent flying while their bodies were also sent flying. Their flesh and souls were scattered like sand, turning into ashes as they disappeared on the spot.
But the huge black ship of the God’s Palace was intact.
“Poof...” The flaming divine dragons around Huo Jun were broken one by one while cracks appeared on the surface of his body, like broken porcelain. He was powerful, but he also couldn’t withstand such a single blow.
“AHH!” He shouted crazily. His body suddenly burst open and turned into countless drops of blood. Each looked crystal clear as if it was a condensed flame. The blood-drops overflowed in all directions and were about to integrate into the void.
Huo Jun had displayed the forbidden magical power to break himself apart, wishing to escape this place.
He was a God Realm Master. Even if his body was shattered into powder, as long as he could escape with a drop of fiery divine blood that contained the essence of his soul, he could be reborn and revive his soul with a different body. In half a year, he would still be able to recover his magical power.
“Humph!”
The Great Phoenix Saint gently waved her hand again.
Almost all the blood-drops in the sky evaporated in an instant and turned into green smoke.
However, there were still three or four drops. In the end, they plunged into the void like loaches and disappeared completely before they were destroyed.
Huo Jun had managed to escape.
Ding Hao was slightly stunned. According to the strength of the Great Phoenix Saint, she shouldn’t have Huo Jun escaped. Was she careless?
Countless demon experts around shouted the title of Great Phoenix Saint crazily.
“Come to me by the Immortal Phoenix Palace,” The Great Phoenix Saint said lightly as her words reached Ding Hao’s ears. Except for him, no one else heard it. As soon as her voice fell, her noble and majestic figure slowly dimmed, and finally disappeared like a bubble.
Only a crystal-clear phoenix feather was left.
“Greetings, Your Highness,” The One-legged Ox King knelt on the ground with one leg and said in a loud voice respectfully. The feather trembled slightly and slowly drifted down. Finally, it landed in the center of his palm.
Ding Hao was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that the figure of the Great Phoenix Saint, who had appeared before, turned out to be the transformation of this phoenix feather.
This discovery was not a trivial matter, which shocked Ding Hao greatly.
A single feathered phantom avatar could even unleash such a terrifying power and devour an energy storm. Even a one-aperture God Realm Master as powerful as Huo Jun would find it difficult to block her casual strike. Just how powerful was the Great Phoenix Saint’s true body?
“Can it be that... she’s a real immortal?
“Why do I feel that Ding Tong’s fully displayed power in the battle of the Hundred Thousand Mountains cannot be compared with that of the Great Phoenix Saint?
“What kind of horrible power have I unsealed in the underground ice layer of the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain?
“Things are getting quite serious.”
“Your Highness, please come with me.” The One-legged Ox King carefully and respectfully held the phoenix feather and made an inviting gesture to Ding Hao.
Ding Hao hesitated a little but still followed him.
The strength of the Great Phoenix Saint was far beyond his imagination, which made Ding Hao feel a sense of crisis. He was not particularly afraid of the Immortal Phoenix Palace before, but now it seemed that the situation was much more complicated than he had imagined. However, the Great Phoenix Saint seemed to have no malice toward him, and Xie Jieyu was there. No matter what, he had to take a look and figure out which side the Great Phoenix Saint was on. Otherwise, such a strong expert would be powerful enough to change many things.
...
More than six thousand kilometers away.
An obvious blood drop suddenly fell from the void.
With a plop, the drop of blood fell on a rock, which was instantly burned into liquid. A strange power spread out from the magma, which was terrifying to look at.
“What... is this?” Gu Xing’er and Hua Mojian were startled.
They followed Ding Hao and approached the territory of the Demon Clan. They began to slow down. Although they did not know what Ding Hao was going to do after entering there, they still followed him after a brief discussion.
But they didn’t expect to see such a strange scene all of a sudden.
“A blood drop from the sky?”
Just as the two of them were in a state of shock and bewilderment, the drop of blood in the magma emitted a bright light after the rock melted. Finally, it turned into the figure of a middle-aged man. His face was pale and his figure was like a dim shadow as he slowly walked out of the magma.
