Chapter 1152 - Chapter 1152 Reading All the Ancient Books
Ding Hao was a little stunned, but he did not retreat.
He was in the world of small golden sabers, his own Saber Domain. Even if Hades True Immortal was here in person, as long as he didn’t break the rules, he would still die here, let alone the power of a dark seed.
Ding Hao merely ran his power a bit. Fire sabers flashed across the void.
The black mist was instantly burned out.
The power of this dark seed had been completely exhausted.
Ding Hao’s face was solemn and he was not very happy.
It was just a small encounter today, but the power of Hades True Immortal was indeed terrifying. It seemed that he could divide his entity at will. With Ding Hao’s current cultivation, he had almost reached the peak of cultivation in the history of the creatures in the Land of Infinity. However, he was controlled by Hades True Immortal with just a few words. “If his real body shows up, how terrifying will that be?”
Ding Hao grew extremely wary.
But at the same time, he was also a bit confused.
The power of Hades True Immortal was so terrifying. Why hadn’t he personally made a move? Ding Hao thought of the Battle of the Hundred Thousand Mountains, the Battle of the Hungry Ghost Path, the death of the Fake God Emperor, and so on. If all of these were Hades True Immortal’s traps, then they would definitely be important to him. But why hadn’t he made a move to save them when they were being destroyed one by one? With his strength, if he had taken action, he would definitely have been able to change the situation of the battles with a single move.
But the fact was that Hades True Immortal had just watched as the pawns he’d set up were removed one by one.
If the failure of his first and second traps was due to his negligence or being too late to notice, how could he not know the following defeats with his strength and magical power?
Those traps were clearly all important pawns to him.
But they all failed.
Even Ding Tong had been defeated and had his Seven Star-shaped Eyes of Fate taken away by Ding Hao. Hades True Immortal’s previous words clearly showed that he was unwilling to give up, but why didn’t he stop Ding Hao or take the stuff back?
Ding Hao vaguely felt that he seemed to have grasped something, but he was not certain about it. The faint light flickered in front of him, and he always found it to see clearly.
“It seems that if I want to have enough power to fight against Hades True Immortal, I need to become an immortal as soon as possible!”
Ding Hao was deep in thought.
At this time, Ding Hao was already at the peak of the dual meridian eight-apertured Martial Demigod Realm. If he advanced further, he could integrate his two meridians into the Martial Demigod nine apertures and make them one. After he opened up the last nine apertures of the Six Strange Veins and the twelfth meridian of the Twelve Meridians, he would be able to reach the Martial Immortal Realm, and he might be able to fight against Hades True Immortal.
…
In the next few days, the clash between the Southern Wilderness and the Seven Seas gradually formed a new pattern.
Because of the mediation of Ding Hao, a supreme master of the generation, all the forces did not dare to start a war. Among the major forces of the Southern Wilderness, Heaven Island only obeyed Ding Hao’s orders. The other forces had long been scared out of their wits by Ding Hao, including the Human Clan and the Demon Clan. The Sea Clan of the Seven Seas had been shocked by Ding Hao in the previous battle. In addition, the new Sea God, Adorable, was on Ding Hao’s side, so all the major forces could only obediently and peacefully establish their own territories.
The collision between the two continents created a new world.
According to everyone’s judgment, from the Northern Region of the Land of Infinity all the way to the south, after they passed the Divine Central Continent and the Southern Wilderness, they would arrive at the Seven Seas. From the Seven Seas to the south, they would reach the Feather Clan’s imperial court in the Land of Divine Grace, and then the Beastman Tribe in the north of the Land of Divine Grace. This was the situation between the north and south.
“As for the east and the west… According to the theory of physics in my previous life, after the two continents collide and merge, they should become a sphere, right? In the sky of this world, there are also flashing spheres… But maybe it’s because the two continents have just merged into one that much evolution has not yet happened. As time goes by, the continental plates will change, and I’m afraid that the areas and terrains of the two continents will also change along. The sea will gradually connect. In the end, the east, west, north, and south of the two continents will be completely connected, and a new planet will be formed.”
Ding Hao made a guess in his heart.
He knew very well that there were still a lot of aftereffects of the collision and merger of the two continents, which would gradually take place in the long future. Maybe not only the terrains, rivers, lakes, and seas would change, but even the climate on the continents would alternate. The climate in the Northern Region might vary from wind and snow to pleasant one, and the richness of the Divine Central Continent might gradually decline along with the transition of the continents.
However, that was no longer what Ding Hao needed to think about at the moment.
After staying in that sea for less than six days, he left with Li Yiruo and the others and rushed back to the Northern Region.
…
The Swordsmanship-seeking Sect was still the rising overlord of the Northern Region.
At the same time, the power of the Immortal Phoenix Palace was gradually increasing. The Great Phoenix Saint had taken action several times and intimidated all parties. There was a faint tendency to unify the Demon Clan in the Northern Region. Except for the Demon God Palace and a few other top sects of the Demon Clan, the other forces no longer dared to fight against the Immortal Phoenix Palace.
The Great Phoenix Saint had announced to the world that she would abdicate in a year, and the Immortal Phoenix Palace would be in the charge of the Phoenix, the holy goddess.
Xie Jieyu, the Phoenix, was Ding Hao’s wife. This identity made countless people have the same opinion about the future of the Northern Region that this ancient region might soon become Ding Hao’s alone because the head of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect was also Ding Hao’s wife.
Some people sighed with emotion that although Ding Hao did not have the sect power, he had married the heads of two of the largest sects in the Northern Region, which was more enviable than directly holding power.
The impact of the collision between the two continents on the Northern Region was relatively small.
The people here just felt the vibration of the earth. However, for those who were used to the earth-shattering scene of wars and battles between experts, this kind of vibration really couldn’t attract too much of their attention. The Land of Infinity was just too large. Only the real supreme masters could notice it when the shock waves spread here.
Ding Hao stayed in the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect for three days and set up countless fatal formations there, making the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect impregnable. He spent less than two hours with his wife and daughter and then went to the Tranquility Academy.
The Tranquility Academy had the most books in Snow Province, recording many ancient events as well as various legends and secrets in the past tens of thousands of years. Ding Hao talked in detail with Ji Yingqi and Kong Yiru for half a day, and then spent the other half of the day in the library of the Tranquility Academy, reading all kinds of books.
“It’s still not enough!”
After all, the Tranquility Academy was not strong enough. Although it had recorded some information, it was still a little far from Ding Hao’s expectations.
The next day, Ding Hao went to the Blue Cloud Sect and the Extermination Swordsmanship Sect.
After a brief negotiation, Ding Hao entered the libraries of the two major sects in succession. He stayed in the library of the Blue Cloud Sect for three days and that of the Extermination Swordsmanship Sect for about two days.
“I seem to have captured some information. The six paths, the Heaven Path, the laws, and the Immortal Period… The destruction of each epoch is indeed somewhat similar. The Land of Infinity and the Land of Divine Grace should have been a whole long time ago, not continents floating in the void… But ever since the six paths collapsed and the Immortal Period was destroyed, these two worlds have never merged until this epoch. Could it be the unusual signs are indicating something?”
Ding Hao was lost in thought.
Before he left the Blue Cloud Sect, he left behind a divine formation that could strengthen the fate and defense of the sect for a thousand years. He did the same thing when he left the Extermination Swordsmanship Sect.
When Ding Hao’s figure disappeared, the high-level officials of the Blue Cloud Sect in front of the Green Cloud Hall looked grave.
“Sect Leader, is it really appropriate to make the library of the sect’s classics accessible to that man?” A meritorious elder of the Blue Cloud Sect sighed and said, “Although we have always had a good relationship with the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, it’s hard to predict his intention. What if… ”
“It’s all right.” Song Shang, the head of the Blue Cloud Sect, shook his head slightly and said, “Ding Hao has completely exceeded us. You should have noticed that his strength is unfathomable and profound now, which is like the abyss in the sea, the starry sky in the universe, and the high mountains. He has completely detached himself from the world and the martial arts on the entire continent. It is very likely that he’s close to making the eternal approach. Even if all the forces of the Blue Cloud Sect are gathered together, we’ll be no match for him. We might as well do good karma so that our Blue Cloud Sect will stay protected in the future!”
The other elders were all shocked when they heard that, but they didn’t know what to say.
Song Que was among the crowd.
He also had a lot of feelings in his heart. When he first saw Ding Hao, his strength was still superior to Ding Hao’s. He didn’t expect that now he could not catch up with Ding Hao at all.
“Fortunately, he is my good brother!”
...
The same thing also happened in the Extermination Swordsmanship Sect.
In the face of the questions from the elders and higher-ups, the head of the Extermination Swordsmanship Sect said worriedly, “Regardless of Ding Hao’s ruling strength, the world has changed. Didn’t you feel that the tides and powers on the continent are growing wildly? Although cultivating in such an environment will yield twice the result with half the effort, we should be wary of anything out of the ordinary. You should still remember that the ancient books in the sect said that such signs had appeared before the destruction of several eras. Maybe a catastrophe is coming. Our strength will hardly play a role in the face of such a disaster. What Ding Hao saw has exceeded our imagination. By giving a hand to him would we help ourselves. Once the disaster comes, only Ding Hao can resist it…”
Everyone sighed and didn’t say anything.
…
In the next month or so, Ding Hao visited the top-level sects and middle-level sects in the Northern Region one after another. Both the Human Clan and the Demon Clan forces opened their respective library books to Ding Hao. He only read ancient books and did not read the ones related to martial arts and magical powers. Before he left, he would always give some gifts to those sects.
A month later, Ding Hao left the Northern Region.
