Chapter 753 Each Divine Artifact Has Chosen Its Owner
“The Divine Artifact has chosen its owner. Why do you have to force it? Whatever will be, will be. Don’t be blinded by greed in your heart. There’s karma. When the time comes, even if you are a sage, you will fall.” Ding Hao straightforwardly took a stand.
“Humph!” Luo Guantian snorted.
“You don’t know how to appreciate others’ favors.” Wei Wubing, the Highest Elder of the Wuji Sect, raised his eyebrows.
Dugu Wuji of the Purple Cloud City remained silent and expressionless.
“It seems that these gentlemen don’t agree with you,” Star Gazer said with a faint smile.
“These are the so-called senior masters. You claimed to be the superiors who can lead the Human Clan. Seeing is believing. You don’t live up to your reputation at all. You guys are only a group of selfish people.” Ding Hao didn’t bother to argue with them. He raised the long sword in his hand and said, “In that case, whoever wants it, you can get it with your own strength. You’ll have to defeat me first!”
He stood in front of Yu Miejue and the other two. His ragged green robe fluttered in the wind. With his rusted sword rising in the air, Ding Hao sneered.
He was extraordinarily determined and unshakable like a mountain.
His invisible momentum filled the air, and everyone was amazed.
As the saying goes, you couldn’t sense any evil spirit around a person with a heart of gold. Ding Hao was righteous. Thus, there was an aura of justice and righteousness around him.
In contrast, the other experts in the Sage Realm all had their own evil thoughts. At this moment, they could not help but feel ashamed of themselves. They suddenly dare not look Ding Hao in the eye. However, they had never felt this way.
After a short moment of lowering their heads, they became irritable from embarra.s.sment.
They were actually… intimidated by a young man inferior to them?
“You don’t know how to be grateful. Since you are so stubborn, you will still be a scourge to the Human Clan when you rise in the future. Today, I will destroy you!” Luo Guantian, the Martial Sage of the G.o.d-slaying Sect, was the first to lose his patience. He had a fierce murderous intent toward Ding Hao, so he made up his mind and wanted to kill him.
He thought to himself, “Hmph, so what if you’re a big shot? Even if you really came from the Holy Palace of Mysterious Frost, so what? As long as we took a joint effort to kill you today, the Holy Palace of Mysterious Frost would not be able to trace. Even if you died, you would die in vain.”
“Haha, let’s kill this idiot who is blinded by the demoness. Whoever dares to hesitate will be considered this woman’s accomplice. We’ll kill him together!” The Aloof Man, Yue Tianxing, shouted fiercely.
Only if everyone took action would there be no room for retreat.
If the Holy Palace of Mysterious Frost looked into Ding Hao’s death, everyone would be accountable so that no one dared to reveal the truth.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Killing intent filled the air, and enormous powerful Qi was surging.
Ding Hao stretched out his left hand in the void and summoned the devil saber.
With the sword and saber in hand, his momentum was constantly mounting.
The devil saber and rusted sword intimidated everyone.
After all, they were something that even the experts in the Sage Realm were afraid of. Among all the people present, no one was absolutely certain that they could take the blow. Their only chance to win was whether Ding Hao could activate the power of his weapons many times and whether he would be exhausted by the counteroffensive of the power like Yu Miejue who had activated the G.o.d-suppressing Seal several times.
The atmosphere was suffocating.
Especially those emperor-level experts who were forced to deal with Ding Hao, they all looked bitter as if they were forced to get involved in the fight among the powerful figures.
The situation had reached a critical moment.
Right at this moment, Yu Miejue, who had been silent, suddenly walked over, stood side by side with Ding Hao, glanced at him, and said in a flat voice, “Ding Hao, this is my business. It has nothing to do with you. You should go.”
She looked like she disliked Ding Hao’s meddling.
The G.o.d-suppressing Seal emerged from her sea of consciousness and floated slowly in front of her, releasing a flame-like light. Wisps of divine power circulated and immediately drew the attention of countless people. The eyes of Star Gazer, Luo Guantian, and the others all revealed their amazement and greed.
“The Divine Artifact is here. If you want to get it, exchange your life for it!”
Yu Miejue smiled coldly and stood in front of Ding Hao.
“Humph, wicked woman, you’re courting death! There is no need to care about morality when we deal with the evil. Let’s kill this shameless couple together!” The Aloof Man, Yue Tianxing, shouted coldly. His whole body was surging with strong power, and he was taking the lead in the attack.
Boom!
The beam of Qi shot out fiercely like a mountain collapsing.
“Kill them!”
“The Divine Artifact cannot fall into the hands of such people…”
Yue Tianxing’s attack was like a flame falling into a pan with burning oil. It completely ignited the greed and madness in everyone’s heart. In an instant, almost everyone took action.
Various kinds of power of Qi in the vast s.p.a.ce burst out, which completely broke the silence. The storm-like force of the impact spread, targeting Ding Hao and Yu Miejue.
With his black hair flying in the air, Ding Hao’s green robe fluttered.
Yu Miejue’s red armor was getting brighter, and her cloak swept like a flaming phoenix.
s.h.i.+ Wa and Xin Ge roared as they activated the power of the tattoos on their bodies and charged forward.
The battle finally broke out.
“Why don’t you go away?!” Yu Miejue suddenly turned around and struck with her palm. Her slender hand instantly pressed on Ding Hao’s chest with great strength. Like a kite with a broken string, Ding Hao was sent flying to a tunnel behind him.
After a moment of shock, Ding Hao suddenly understood the intention of this stunning girl.
“Ding Hao, you are a good person. You don’t have to die with me.”
At last, he could no longer hear her cold voice.
Ding Hao looked up and saw that the moment Yu Miejue looked back at him, a smile suddenly appeared on her face. In an instant, it was as if the iceberg had melted. The beauty of the whole world combined seemed to be no match for her faint smile. When the expression of this unapproachable girl suddenly became soft, it made people feel as if the whole world was overshadowed.
Ding Hao was not the kind of person who would be bewitched by a woman’s beauty.
In fact, Li Yiruo, Xie Jieyu, Ximen Qianxue, Li Lan, and other girls were all peerless beauties. Ding Hao had become extremely tough under the test of these beautiful women. Even a woman who was as stunning as Moonlight Fairy could not make Ding Hao waver.
Today, the reason why Ding Hao wanted to help Yu Miejue was that he got sick of the hypocrites like Yue Tianxing. Most importantly, Ding Hao’s intuition of the Mind Essential made him feel that this was something he must do.
Yu Miejue did not have the slightest intention to kill Ding Hao when giving him this blow.
She merely intended to send Ding Hao away.
The girl’s mouth twisted in a contemptuous sneer as she was confronted with the terrifying storm of energy that was rus.h.i.+ng over. Her hands swiftly formed a seal in front of her chest. Her delicate fingers left numerous phantoms in the air, appearing as though numerous white lotuses had bloomed.
The G.o.d-suppressing Seal buzzed and trembled slightly.
The divine power that surged in the air suddenly became turbulent. A kind of indescribable formidable power emerged with the G.o.d-suppressing Seal as the center.
“Oh no, this demoness wants to destroy the Divine Artifact with herself!”
Yue Tianxing cried out in surprise, and his face turned pale. He immediately withdrew.
In an instant, the excited expressions of those experts who were originally flushed because of greed instantly turned into horror. They did not hesitate to bear the counteroffensive of their own cultivation methods caused by the sudden stop of the attack and retreated one after another.
Even experts in the Sage Realm were no exception.
The power of a Divine Artifact’s self-detonation was equivalent to a blow of a G.o.d-level expert.
It was enough to destroy the whole world.
Even if there were a G.o.d-level supreme master present, he would probably be injured by such power, not to mention these people. If they were drawn in it, they would instantly turn into ashes like thin paper in the raging fire, without any luck to survive.
Yu Miejue was simply too aggressive.
She would rather die than give up the Divine Artifact.
Whoever wanted the Divine Artifact should trade their life for it!
This was definitely not a joke.
She was going to be destroyed with it!
“She’s crazy. She’s crazy…” Yue Tianxing was scared out of his wits. He quickly fled to the back as far as he could.
The violent divine power in the void was even more obvious.
Yu Miejue sneered, her eyes filled with disdain. His hands continued to seize the seal without the slightest hesitation.
“Don’t do this…” Ding Hao was startled and wanted to return to the field at once.
But at this moment—
“Three Great Divine Artifacts have chosen their owners. The selection is over. All of you can leave now!”
The familiar cold and n.o.ble voice rang out in the void without warning. Then, silver beams of teleportation descended from the top of the vast s.p.a.ce, and each of them enveloped a figure present. With a flash of light, the experts were teleported one by one.
As Ding Hao’s vision blurred, he disappeared on the spot involuntarily.
“Haha, is it the black-hole-level Starry River Boundary Formation? I’m afraid it still can’t stop me…”
Inside the Towering Buddha PaG.o.da, the destruction shadow was standing at the crack between the galaxy and the earth on the edge of the square, located at the end of the small world with infinite ice. He looked at the huge black hole and muttered to himself with a chuckle.
Countless Spirits of the Dead were gathering around him.
The gathered green souls were like a boundless forest, and it was also like surging green seawater. The world was filled with sharp and harsh roars, which was incredibly intimidating.
The army of Spirits of the Dead had broken through several Starry River Boundary Formations and came all the way here.
The destruction shadow gently waved his hand.
The whole world fell silent. All the Spirits of the Dead stopped making a sound and knelt on the ground as if they were wors.h.i.+pping their king.
Next to the destruction shadow were tens of thousands of strange figures.
They weren’t the nearly transparent bodies like ordinary Spirits of the Dead. Instead, they had actual bodies with flesh. Some of them were the corpses of the Archean Period experts in the first ancient cemetery, some were the corpses of the dead who were frozen in this small world, and the others were the bodies of the Human Clan and the Demon Clan who were slaughtered by the army of Spirits of the Dead before!
