Chapter 525 Divine Weapons with Fighting Intent and Spiritual Qi
The next day, they set off again.
Along the way, Ding Hao sealed a lot of weapons with fighting intent and spiritual Qi.
He also encountered the corpses of some experts of the Human Clan and the Demon Clan killed by these weapons.
When the sun was about to set again, Ding Hao finally walked out of the plains made up of endless broken sabers and swords and arrived at a rugged mountain range. When he fixed his eyes on it, he was greatly shocked.
These towering red mountains were actually made up of broken weapons.
Thousands of broken sabers and swords were piled up, and some rusted swords were flas.h.i.+ng. They were piled up like haystacks towering into the sky. It was really hard to imagine how many broken swords and sabers were needed to produce such mountains stretching far into the distance.
It was incredible to see these densely packed sabers and swords, which were piled up chaotically.
Even though Ding Hao did not have trypophobia, when he looked around, he still felt dizzy.
A wave of evil Metal Qi and killing intent surged up into the sky, stirring up an endless cyclone, which was whirling and whistling at the mountain ridge!
What was even more frightening was that there were looming shadows of demons and G.o.ds that flickered and roared in the cyclone. Footage of devastating battle scenes was continually playing, as though they were films. In the battles, G.o.ds and demons were fighting, semi-demons were moving freely, and all sorts of incredible magical skills and battle techniques that were beyond human capacity showed up.
These should be illusions made by fighting intent and spiritual Qi contained in the millions of broken sabers and swords.
These were the scenes of the battles that the owners of these weapons had joined in the past.
Despite the fact that millions of years had pa.s.sed, only the intense fighting intents within these weapons remained. No matter how many years had pa.s.sed, there were still traces of fighting intents. Many remnant fighting intents gathered together to form the ever-changing horrible scenes in the mountain range.
The former owners of these weapons were geniuses, talents, and heroes of a generation.
Therefore, a shred of their remaining volition could last for thousands of years after their death.
Ding Hao was shocked and couldn’t help sighing.
“The road of martial arts is long and hard. It’s really cruel. No matter how talented you are, no matter how outstanding you are, no matter how powerful you are, no matter how dominating you are, as long as you don’t reach the top and became an immortal Supreme Master, you are destined to die, be turned to ashes, and then vanish.
“These weapons will be around longer than you will.”
Standing among a hill of sabers and swords for a long time, Ding Hao released his Awareness to explore carefully.
Finally, he found that the seemingly looming fighting scenes of G.o.ds and demons were not harmless. Actually, they were horrible. The cyclone was strong enough to tear up a Martial King Realm expert in an instant, and the evil will in the fighting intents and spiritual Qi, which lasted for thousands of years, could even directly affect people’s Divine Senses and minds. The soul of an ordinary martial artist with weak Divine Senses would be shattered, and he would turn into a living-dead person, which was more terrible than death.
The mountains stretched for at least hundreds of kilometers, which blocked Ding Hao’s way.
If he wanted to reach the end of the eighth section of the West Journey to the Ancient Road, he would have to cross this mountain that was formed from countless broken sabers and swords. There was no other way.
Ding Hao had been preparing for a long time at the edge of the mountain range. After making sure that he did not miss anything, he carried Ji Yingqi on his back. With Evil Moon and Adorable, he carefully stepped into the dangerous mountain range.
As soon as his step landed on the foot of the mountain, a red storm with boundless evil spirit blew in his face.
The scene in front of him changed.
As far as he could see, everything turned scarlet.
In the storm, looming ghost shadows with blurred faces, like phantoms in the dark night, rushed toward him one after another.
Ding Hao subconsciously threw a punch, and then he realized that the ghost shadows caused by the high-speed rotation of the airflow were actually illusory. They were harmless; however, the blowing strong wind stirred up sc.r.a.ps of rusted metal the size of a thumb. They were like strong arrows that could shoot through ordinary warriors.
Ding Hao ran his Qi to set up a silver s.h.i.+eld with a diameter of more than two meters, protecting Ji Yingqi and his two pets. He walked forward step by step.
When the rusted sc.r.a.ps of metal hit the s.h.i.+eld, a sound arose like the sound of metal cras.h.i.+ng together. Sparks flew off and the banging continued.
Ding Hao couldn’t help being shocked.
Not to mention anything else, this obstacle alone would make many human and demon experts who were lucky enough to trek all the way here flinch. This was only the edge of the mountain range, and it was already so terrifying. If they went deep into it, even an expert at the peak of the Martial King Realm would be torn apart.
The environment here was really harsh.
With Ding Hao’s vison, he could only barely see a hundred meters away through the red wind. If he wanted to explore further, he would have to rely on his Divine Senses.
“Go along this col, all the way forward…” Ji Yingqi closed her eyes and sensed for a while, then reached out her finger and pointed.
Ding Hao followed her words.
“Swoos.h.!.+”
In the strong wind, a red light approached his face.
It was yet another weapon that contained fighting intent and spiritual Qi.
It contained a very terrifying power, which was equivalent to a full blow from a seven-apertured Martial King Realm expert.
Ding Hao already had experience. He did not avoid it. He calmly waited until the huge axe came near him. Then he reached out his hand and grabbed the axe handle quickly. With a move of his mind, his left index finger bent, and as if it were a saber, carved a series of inscriptions in the shape of Chinese characters and sealed the huge axe.
The whole process took a short time.
Ding Hao continued to move forward.
In the mountains, everything around him was piled up by various weapons, such as broken sabers and swords.
The ground under his feet and the things like dry trees beside the road were piled up with weapons, giving people a very strange illusion. The endless wind with some metal fragments wrapped inside made the environment of the mountain very terrifying. So, Ding Hao slowed down.
After going less than three or four kilometers on the mountain, Ding Hao saw some corpses and bones of the dead.
These badly mutilated corpses were blown up by the strong wind and hung on the trees made up with sabers and swords. Their bodies were stabbed with these blades, making them looked like hedgehogs. It seemed that they were experts of the Human Clan and the Demon Clan, who had entered the mountains and died.
After walking for about half a day, Ding Hao only climbed over two mountains.
Along the way, he was attacked by dozens of weapons with fighting intent and spiritual Qi, and he sealed them all.
Evil Moon patted the small s.p.a.ce bag on his belly and said triumphantly, “Haha, who dares to provoke me in the future. If they press me so hard, I will release all the weapons sealed inside to attack them. Even a Martial Emperor Realm expert may lose his life…”
Ding Hao shook his head speechlessly.
In the past few days, Evil Moon, the fat cat, had eaten a lot of magic herbs and medicine, swallowed lots of the flesh of the Surviving Species of the Untainted Land, and swallowed the souls of several great Demon Royals. In principle, it should be able to evolve again. But for this guy, except for his fatter body, there was no other obvious change.
However, something strange happened to Adorable.
The originally smooth skin of the small dolphin gradually began to grow layers of pale golden scales, which were like dragon scales and had a clear texture. s.h.i.+ny claws grew out from its front fins, which made Adorable’s appearance more fierce.
“Hey, why do we always get some sealed low-level weapons? It would be better if we got weapons comparable to the Martial Emperor and Martial Grand Emperor levels,” Evil Moon said with discontentment. “I think we should search for some more powerful weapons. In this way, we can do anything we want after we get out of the Sage Battlefield!”
“Haha!” Adorable raised its front fin to despise Evil Moon, showing contempt for it.
“F**k, what do you mean by this?” Evil Moon said indignantly.
“It’s obvious that the little dolphin is mocking you…” Ding Hao raised his hand and knocked Evil Moon on its forehead and said, “You fool. If there really were weapons with spiritual Qi that are comparable to the strength of a Martial Grand Emperor, with our strength, we would be smashed into pieces in an instant. How could we seal them?”
Evil Moon was stunned and said, “Well, that’s true, but…”
Before it had finished its words—
“Boom! Boom!”
The surrounding mountains shook.
An incomparable violent killing intent suddenly appeared before Ding Hao, and it rushed toward him and the others like a light.
“This is… the killing intent near the Four-apertured Martial Emperor Realm!”
Ding Hao was shocked and suddenly became serious. His Divine Senses sent the image to his head. It was a huge sword burning with raging flames. It exploded from a distant mountain peak with incomparable ferocity, as if a Martial Emperor had really appeared and rushed toward him like lightning.
“F**k! Is it really a weapon with fighting intent and spiritual Qi at the Martial Emperor Realm?” Evil Moon asked and s.h.i.+vered.
“You are really a jinx,” Ding Hao said, and his facial expression changed greatly. He channeled the Qi in his body wildly and dodged quickly to the other side.
This kind of weapon was extremely powerful. It was far more terrifying than the masters like Song Que, Demon Royal Bu Tianjue, and Demonic Bear Emperor under the two-apertured realm. It was absolutely impossible for him to counter and seal it. Ding Hao could only carry Ji Yingqi on his back and flee immediately.
“Boom!”
A strong and unparalleled force flashed by Ding Hao’s side.
The grisly force directly made a huge crater in the place where Ding Hao had just been standing. All kinds of broken swords and sabers were smashed into pieces of metal and burst out in the wind.
“Bang! Bang!”
Ding Hao propped up his Qi s.h.i.+eld in front of him, which was constantly hit by the metal fragments and sent out a string of sparks.
As if he was facing the attacks of dozens of experts at the same time.
