Chapter 973 Creation of the Floating Mountain Range
The purple Sword Light broke the huge palm and did not diminish. It attacked the G.o.d Realm Master head-on.
In a panic, the G.o.d Realm Master from the G.o.d’s Palace quickly changed his position and dodged immediately. However, the Sword Light cut through the void and cut off a section of his long hair. The Sword Light brushed past his head and disappeared into the distant void.
There was a G.o.d Realm Master among the people who practiced physical cultivation!
The G.o.d Realm Master was greatly shocked.
That sword strike just now was too aggressive and terrifying. If he hadn’t reacted in time, his body would have probably been slashed into pieces.
Down below…
Nalan Xin was hiding in the crowd. He did not make a move.
The sinister smile that had been hanging on the corners of his mouth suddenly froze at this moment.
“How could this be? There is such a master among the people who practiced physical cultivation in the Vast Ocean? No, that guy has entered the Saint-alighting Mountain Range and can’t come out. Who else can be a match for Mr. Han?” He was extremely shocked.
“Something awful will happen. If these d.a.m.n people who practiced physical cultivation can’t be annihilated, the plan of the head of the family will go awry.”
Ding Hao glanced around.
Each of the s.h.i.+ning golden light spots represented an Absolute Superior who had survived countless life-and-death battles. Creatures who could reach this phase were all extremely terrifying.
He saw some acquaintances in the crowd.
They were the Mermaid Princess from the Sea Clan, who had long light yellow hair and was holding a trident, the beautiful female warrior from the Ceroman Clan, the silver-winged genius from the Feather Clan, Huo Jun, who was the G.o.d Realm Master from the G.o.d’s Palace, Ding Busan and Ding Busi, and masters from other forces.
Although the G.o.d’s Palace no longer had the absolute advantage as it did in the past, there were still a lot of people from the G.o.d’s Palace among the 880 people, taking up about 50%. After all, the G.o.d’s Palace was still ruling over the Stone Mouth City nominally at present. In terms of the number of Absolute Superiors, the G.o.d’s Palace might not be able to compete with other forces, but the average number of Absolute Superiors they had was still shocking.
Ding Hao looked around, but he did not find Ding Tong.
This peerless genius, who had shocked the world in the battle in the Hundred Thousand Mountains, disappeared after that battle and never appeared again. Many people speculated that his Eyes of Fate with Seven Stars, which was his foundation, had been injured by Ding Shengtan in that battle and could not be recovered for a while. He was recovering in the divine hall in the Divine Capital of the G.o.d’s Palace. It was impossible for him to reappear before the public in three or five years. Once a warrior’s foundation was hurt and he could not quickly repair it, it was very likely that he would suffer from an eternal health problem.
Neither the Fake G.o.d Emperor nor the G.o.d’s Palace dared to let Ding Tong, the future hope for them, take the risk before recovering from his injury.
“It seems that he really didn’t show up…” Ding Hao felt it was a little strange. “Has Ding Tong really been injured so badly?”
Ding Hao kept glancing at the gold thrones in the surroundings, trying to find his father Ding Shengtan. Unfortunately, he failed to find his father. Maybe Ding Shengtan would use his mysterious ent.i.ty body again to compete for the Immortal Artifact. In that case, Ding Hao was even more uncertain.
Ding Hao felt strange that not only his father did not show up, but also the Third Divine Prince Ding Xinghua was not among the 880 people. The G.o.d of War of Mysterious Frost in the Northern Region, the lord of the Great Leiyin Monastery, the Central Region Supreme G.o.d of War, and others, whom he was expecting, did not appear on the surrounding gold thrones.
“That’s not right. According to Jin Keyan’s report, the G.o.d of War of Mysterious Frost in the Northern Region has once made aggressive moves in the void of the cave and has killed some masters from the G.o.d’s Palace. He has s.n.a.t.c.hed an immortal medicine catalyst. This means that he showed up. Why hasn’t he appeared on any gold throne?” Ding Hao felt confused. With the strength of the G.o.d of War of Mysterious Frost in the Northern Region, it was impossible for him to die in the Battle of the Chosen.
“Could it be that he can break away from the control of the Gold Divine Hall?”
Just as all kinds of thoughts pa.s.sed through Ding Hao’s mind, the 88 Gold Divine Halls below suddenly began to shake violently, and even the broken boulders around them began to collide with each other. Fragments of gravel and dust slowly floated up, leaving the ground and rising into the sky, as if there were a kind of invisible force that was attracting them all into the sky.
Soon afterwards, small rocks also floated up one after another.
This scene was extremely weird. The gravity receded like a tide at this moment, and the boulders on the ground were like giant trees floating in the sea. They all rose up and gathered in the sky as if there were pairs of invisible large hands trying to pick them up and squeeze them together…
Ding Hao was sitting on the gold throne and was protected by the golden light s.h.i.+eld, so he could not feel the energy fluctuations outside.
But visible to the naked eye, ripples appeared in the air. The originally fresh air suddenly became sticky like a swamp, twisting like whirlpools in the sea. It was a kind of force that was so powerful that it could almost liquefy everything. After reaching this height, the rocks floating up from below were almost instantly decomposed into the most primitive particles, turning into a layer of ashes which continued to rise into the sky.
Ding Hao had no doubt that without the protection of the light s.h.i.+eld on the gold throne, he would have been instantly crumbled by the vicious power turbulence. This power, which was similar to the rules of creation, was not something that could be resisted by living creatures.
“What the h.e.l.l is going on? This has already exceeded the power limit of the supreme masters. Even masters at the peak of the G.o.d Realm might not be able to do this unless it is… an immortal!” Ding Hao felt it was incredible. “Do immortals really exist in this world?”
At this moment, the 88 Gold Divine Halls below were finally pulled up by the strange suction force. They rose from the ground and slowly floated to the sky. Under the sun, the divine halls were s.h.i.+ning with golden light. From the outside, they looked almost the same, as if they were copies. No matter the size or style, there was no difference at all.
Under the gazes of countless people, the Gold Divine Halls floated to the layer where there was energy turbulence.
Almost in an instant, the 88 Gold Divine Halls were decomposed by the strange force and were turned into clouds of golden dust, mixing with the shattered rocks. They pa.s.sed through the layer where there was energy turbulence and continued to float up. In the process, the dust rolled like boiling water and merged, covering the sun in the blue sky and leaving a large shadow on the ground.
It was difficult to describe this scene with words.
It was as if a G.o.d of Creation were creating a species again.
The golden lightning and the golden Immortal Qi in the Gold Divine Halls were also released in the process that the divine halls were decomposed, mixing with the purple Immortal Qi overflowing from the caves below. A very strange change occurred, and the mixed Immortal Qi was as hot as fire. It poured into the layer of dust above.
A rumbling sound of thunders could be heard, which was deafening. It broke out from the dust layer as if it were brewing the immortal thunders of destruction or creation.
Gradually, this kind of dust turned into a terrible chaotic layer of ashes.
It was a dust layer filled with the power of chaos. The rules there were in chaos, and the power of various attributes was chaotic. It was completely a place of destruction and death. No creature could survive in it.
The chaotic layer of ashes rolled like boiling water. At the center of it, there was a huge vortex swirling, as if it were about to swallow and destroy the whole world.
Ding Hao was greatly shocked. He activated the golden light ball in his sea of consciousness and opened the Martial Arts Third Eye to look at the chaotic layer of ashes. He was trying to see the changes taking place inside it.
Unfortunately, the originally omnipotent Martial Arts Third Eye failed before the chaotic layer of ashes.
Ding Hao could only see more than 20 meters deep into the chaos. The place was dark and lifeless.
With the pa.s.sage of time, the chaotic layer of ashes in the sky, which was originally only a few kilometers in diameter, continued to expand. In the end, it had covered an area within a radius of thousands of kilometers. Like a thick black cloud, it covered the sun. Not even a ray of sunlight could s.h.i.+ne through it. The world was full of horrible and gloomy darkness. Ordinary people could not see anything with their eyes at all. Even if a warrior used all his strength, he could only see things within ten meters around him.
Darkness had descended.
In the endless horrible darkness, 880 golden thrones were the only things s.h.i.+ning brightly between heaven and earth. They were bringing the only light to the dark world like the eternally s.h.i.+ning stars in the dark universe.
Boom!
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
The chaotic layer of ashes continued to expand and explode. There was terrifying force gus.h.i.+ng out.
Fortunately, the creatures and masters on the gold thrones weren’t affected since they were protected by the light s.h.i.+elds on the thrones.
At the same time, the golden light s.h.i.+eld that enveloped the entire ruins of the Saint-alighting Mountain Range also blocked the terrible fluctuation storm from radiating outside the mountain range, lest the entire Stone Mouth City should be reduced to ruins. There was a kind of mysterious power of the rules that confined the chaotic swelling power to a certain range.
The thunders from the swelling chaos, like the heartbeats of an immortal, reverberated between heaven and earth.
The thunders from the swelling chaos sounded continuously 88 times in total.
Then, an extremely strong fluctuation surged out and rolled up the dust inside the Saint-alighting Mountain Range. The entire gravel ground was instantly turned into powder. Ding Hao only felt that the s.p.a.ce within his sight suddenly darkened and a storm of dust filled the s.p.a.ce outside the golden light s.h.i.+eld, blocking everything he could see. Even the nearest gold thrones could not be seen clearly.
This process lasted for at least 30 minutes.
Then, black dust gradually dispersed.
When all the people including Ding Hao could see everything around them, they were completely stunned— the area of the Saint-alighting Mountain Range below had turned into a black desert from the ruins of the collapsed stone peaks. All the soil, rocks, trees, and surviving creatures had been decomposed into the most primitive black particles. When the wind blew, the black desert rolled like waves.
There was a shadow above their head.
The chaotic layer of ashes had completely disappeared.
The energy turbulence had dissipated as well.
A mountain range floating in the void slowly emerged.
This mountain range seemed to have been formed for millions of years. It was lush with ancient trees and there were many strange peaks. Faintly, there were birds singing and beasts roaring. There was also the rumbling sound of waterfalls. The mountain range covered a radius of hundreds of kilometers, which happened to be the size of the Saint-alighting Mountain Range. The whole mountain range was covered with primitive green forests. When the wind blew, the crown of the trees swayed and made roaring sounds. Under the distant setting sun, the scenery was breathtakingly beautiful.
