Chapter 955 One Abreast King
“Let’s go!”
Ding Hao broke out of layers of encirclement with Xie Jieyu.
He turned around and released a streak of sword radiance. The Sword Intent of the Beginning of Spring was released. Between heaven and earth, the east wind whistled; there was water flowing; fish wagged their tails. The illusions appeared and blocked the void. Dozens of masters of the Ceroman Clan who had rushed in were instantly minced into meat paste.
Ding Ling, the handsome six-winged young man, and the golden-scaled female Ceroman chased after them like maggots in the bones, trying to obtain the immortal medicine catalyst.
Turning into a flowing light, Ding Hao did not fight with them.
“Brother Hao.” Xie Jieyu followed Ding Hao and quietly handed him something.
Ding Hao looked down at it and found that it was the little white rabbit, which was the immortal medicine catalyst.
“Well…” Ding Hao was a little surprised and moved. He said, “I’ve already obtained one. This should belong to you. By the way, how did you recognize me?”
Xie Jieyu smiled sweetly and resolutely stuffed the little white rabbit, which was the immortal medicine catalyst, into Ding Hao’s hand. She said, “Even if I forget everyone in this world, I won’t forget you. No matter how you have changed your look, I will recognize you.”
Ding Hao was deeply moved.
At this moment, he seemed to see again the delicate and beautiful little girl who had taken a bath by the Sword-cleansing Pond of the Swordsmans.h.i.+p-seeking Sect. At that time, she was wearing Ding Hao’s robe. Her wet long hair hung down to her waist. Her face was slightly thin and there was peerless glamour in her eyes…
So many years had pa.s.sed. The weak little girl who had no one to depend on had become the peerless female Martial DemiG.o.d, but her feelings for Ding Hao had never changed.
“You should take this immortal medicine back.” Ding Hao refused. If this immortal medicine catalyst fell into the hands of other people, Ding Hao would definitely try his best to obtain it. But it was in Xie Jieyu’s hands. Ding Hao could not take it.
Over the years, he owed Xie Jieyu too much. Ding Hao really did not want the female Martial DemiG.o.d to lose a great opportunity because of him.
But Xie Jieyu just shook her head and said, “Brother Hao, my body is special and I can’t absorb the power of this immortal medicine catalyst. So it is useless to me. You should keep it.”
There were too many secrets about Xie Jieyu. Ding Hao did not know them, nor did he want to know them. He just needed to know that the female Martial DemiG.o.d was completely loyal to him.
Seeing that Xie Jieyu was extremely determined, Ding Hao did not refuse and put the little white rabbit, which was the immortal medicine catalyst, into the Storage Ring. At this time, the situation was urgent, and he could not say anything more.
Right at this moment—
Boom!
Streaks of black light suddenly appeared. Like wildly spreading vines, they were sweeping toward Ding Hao and Xie Jieyu and were carrying a cold and corrosive aura. Even the void barrier was corroded, making a hissing light sound.
The ghost-like figure was hidden in the black flames in the void, and he was rus.h.i.+ng toward Ding Hao. His bronze grimace mask was particularly eye-catching and he looked like a ghost in the netherworld.
It was the successor of the Hades Ghost Sect.
He was a ruthless man who had been hiding in the dark.
“Be careful.” Ding Hao stood in front of Xie Jieyu. The divine sword Sky Attack kept making a ringing sound. The Sword Light poured out like the sunglow. Dazzling silver light flickered, and suddenly there was a burst of Icing Qi in the void.
The only feature of the divine sword Sky Attack was its sharpness. It could be said to be almost invincible. It could even cut the body of a G.o.d Realm Master into pieces.
Wherever the sword radiance pa.s.sed, the wisps of black light were slashed into pieces.
Ding Hao and Xie Jieyu broke out of the blockade.
“This man has two immortal medicine catalysts. We can’t let him go…” said the successor of the Hades Ghost Sect loudly. His voice was like thunder, reverberating in the entire void in the cave.
Originally, the void of the cave was extremely chaotic. People from various forces who entered this place targeted different immortal medicine catalysts and fought with each other. They could not distinguish what was happening around them. But after hearing what the successor of the Hades Ghost Sect said, in an instant, countless greedy eyes fell on Ding Hao and Xie Jieyu.
“Despicable!” Ding Hao was furious.
The successor of the Hades Ghost Sect was really haunting Ding Hao. He had attacked Ding Hao over and over again in the open and in the dark. He transmitted those words to make Ding Hao the target of attack by many people.
“Hand over the immortal medicine catalysts, or die,” a master from G.o.d’s Palace shouted and stopped Ding Hao.
Countless figures surrounded Ding Hao and Xie Jieyu at the same time.
“Kill our way out,” said Ding Hao to Xie Jieyu in a low voice. Anyway, they could not be trapped by these people in this place. Otherwise, once they were delayed, they would never be able to escape unscathed. After all, the people who appeared here were the top masters from all sides.
Xie Jieyu nodded.
She held the giant strange sword, which was made from four swords, in her right hand. She used her left hand to pull out a huge crimson flame sword, which was as long as ten meters, from the True Phoenix sword box. When she was holding it in her delicate small hand, the visual impact was very strong.
The True Phoenix sword box was only over one meter long and 13 inches wide, but it seemed to contain countless divine swords and sharp weapons of various types. Xie Jieyu pulled out something from it casually, and it would be a long sword most suitable for fighting in the current situation.
“Kill!” The female Martial DemiG.o.d growled and rushed out.
Human figures interlaced.
The master of the G.o.d’s Palace blocking in front of them was killed in an instant.
Ding Hao originally wanted to stay in the void of the cave a little longer to see if he could find an opportunity to obtain a few more immortal medicine catalysts, but now it seemed that they had to leave as soon as possible. If they stayed any longer, he was afraid that he could not keep the two immortal medicine catalysts he had.
Staying here would make it too easy for them to become a target of attack.
“Don’t let them escape!”
“Kill!”
“These two rogue cultivators dare come to fight over the immortal fate? Kill them! Whoever kills them, the immortal medicine catalyst will belong to him!”
At the moment when the battle began, the successor of the Hades Ghost Sect blended into the crowd and fanned the flames. It was like a small spark thrown into a gasoline tank. Flames suddenly burned wildly. Countless people surrounded and attacked them madly.
The people from the G.o.d’s Palace, the Feather Clan, and the Ceroman Clan outnumbered the people from other forces.
“Go quickly! Don’t look back!” Ding Hao asked Xie Jieyu to go quickly. He turned around and placed his sword across his chest. The Sword Intent of the Beginning of Spring and that of Rain Water burst out in an instant. All kinds of illusions of the Sword Intents appeared within a radius of nearly a kilometer, blocking the void.
Poof! Poof! Poof!
Clouds of blood mist burst out, and the masters who had broken into the s.p.a.ce of the Sword Intents were instantly smashed into powder.
However, this kind of domain of Sword Intents was loose but not solidified. Without Ding Hao’s control, it could not cause fatal damage to the real masters. The golden-scaled female Ceroman, the silver-winged young man from the Feather Clan, Ding Ling, and some others broke into this domain.
“Leave through this pa.s.sageway.” Ding Hao pointed to a huge pa.s.sageway with no one inside in front of them. He turned around and slashed out with the Sword Intents of spring, summer, autumn, and winter, blocking the void and trying to delay the pursuing troops as much as possible.
Xie Jieyu held the two giant swords in her hands, and her small body burst out terrible force. She turned into a metal flame whirlwind, knocking away all the enemies in front of her.
The huge swords were very suitable for battling a group of people. As they were waved, no one could get close to her.
The strength of the female Martial DemiG.o.d was countless times more powerful than before. When she brandished her swords, there were long cries of a True Phoenix, which was breathtaking. Any casual attack of hers had the aggressivity of a Semi G.o.d Realm Master. Whoever she was attacking would be defeated. She was simply invincible.
The two of them quickly killed their way out of the tight encirclement and fled into the entrance of the pa.s.sageway.
Just as they were about to break out of the encirclement, majestic force suddenly surged out of the exit of the pa.s.sageway where there was no one inside, like a mountain torrent erupting. It was powerful to the extreme.
Ding Hao and Xie Jieyu were caught off guard. They both groaned and were sent flying backward.
They were unable to break out of the encirclement due to this momentary obstruction.
The next moment, people from all forces surrounded Ding Hao and Xie Jieyu from three sides. They gradually closed in, and the sharp killing intent was bone-chilling. They surrounded Ding Hao and Xie Jieyu in the middle. The two of them had lost the best time to escape.
“Hand over the immortal medicine and I will spare your lives!”
“Young man and young lady, don’t be blinded by greed. Your days are still very long. Leave behind the immortal medicine and you can leave here alive. Or else, don’t blame me for being impolite.”
“Haha, you are too greedy…”
A G.o.d Realm Master emerged from the crowd and exerted powerful force to seal off the three directions of the void. They couldn’t break through it. It was impossible to escape from these directions.
Ding Hao sneered. Without saying a word, he became one with the sword and turned into a flowing light, shooting directly toward the huge pa.s.sageway where there was no one inside.
Xie Jieyu and Ding Hao had a tacit understanding. She chose the same direction almost at the same time.
“Hahaha, young man and young lady, stay here!”
Amidst the loud laughter, dazzling golden light shot out from the exit of the pa.s.sageway. The sound of footsteps that seemed to be stepping on people’s hearts could be heard clearly. A figure in golden sun armor walked out of the pa.s.sageway step by step.
He seemed to be walking very slowly, but people were surprised to find that he was at the exit of the pa.s.sageway after taking one step forward.
“Go back!”
The figure in the golden sun armor waved his hand, releasing majestic force like the ocean.
Ding Hao and Xie Jieyu slightly paused in the void as if they had encountered terrible resistance. Then they were sent flying backward by the huge force at the same time.
“How terrible the force is!” Ding Hao was secretly shocked.
“Who is this man? As he exerted his strength, he was showing the combat strength of a G.o.d Realm Master at the middle level. So he isn’t suppressed by the power of the rules between heaven and the earth? He is very terrifying. Many people present can be defeated by him.”
Everyone was terrified by the figure in the golden sun armor.
The forces which had attacked Ding Hao and Xie Jieyu retreated one after another. They felt how terrifying this man’s strength was. They didn’t want to face such a terrifying opponent.
Right at this moment—
“Greetings, Abreast King.” The masters of the G.o.d’s Palace chasing after Ding Hao and Xie Jieyu all recognized the ident.i.ty of the figure in the golden sun armor. They all got down on one knee in the void and bowed to him respectfully.
At that moment, many people came to a sudden realization. They managed to guess the ident.i.ty of this man.
A murderous light flashed through Ding Hao’s eyes.
Abreast King!
There was only one Abreast King in the G.o.d’s Palace on the Eastern Continent. That was the former Eighth Divine Prince Ding Chulin, who had betrayed the Eldest Divine Prince Ding Shengtan and had won the trust of the Fake G.o.d Emperor. He had been thriving in recent years and was relied heavily on by the Fake G.o.d Emperor. The t.i.tle of One Abreast King had been conferred on him and he had a high status. In G.o.d’s Palace, he was definitely second only to the Fake G.o.d Emperor.
“Has he finally appeared?”
Ding Hao stared at this figure, and there seemed to be a flame burning in his chest.
The Eighth Divine Prince Ding Chulin was Ding Sha’s father. He was one of the culprits of the b.l.o.o.d.y case in the past and was an unforgivable traitor. He had finally appeared before Ding Hao’s eyes.
