Supreme Emperor of Swords Chapter 942

Chapter 942 Heroes Rising

“Heaven Sound Pavilion?”
Ding Hao’s eyes lit up. Could it be that they could provide any information about Fang Tianyi and the others?
“What did he leave here?” asked Ding Hao.
“It’s this jade plate.” Shan Xiong handed over a palm-sized white jade plate and said, “Before the young man left, he had asked for a thousand mysterious crystals, saying that you and he had settled the price before. I didn’t think he was bluffing, so I paid him.”
Ding Hao observed the jade plate for a while and knew that it was indeed from the Heaven Sound Pavilion. He nodded and said, “You did a good job.”
Shan Xiong heaved a sigh of relief.
Ding Hao thought for a moment and then took out 100,000 top-grade mysterious crystals from the white Space Bag. He said, “This is the military pay for the people in the guard camp during this period. You are responsible for distributing it. At the same time, transmit my order. The ban of the guard camp is lifted. You can walk around the city. Remember not to make trouble. Choose a few masters and carefully observe the vicinity of the Nalan family’s residence. Once there is any sign of disturbance, inform me immediately.”
Shan Xiong patted his chest and promised him. “My Lord, you can rest assured.”
Ding Hao nodded and walked toward the secret training room.
On the way, he read the information in the jade plate from the Heaven Sound Pavilion, and his expression changed again and again. After entering the secret training room, he put away the jade plate and exhaled a long breath. No one knew whether his expression was relaxed or solemn. After a long while, he slowly shook his head…
“I didn’t expect it to be like this. Although it’s just some vague information, with the judgment of the Heaven Sound Pavilion, it should be almost accurate. It seems that everyone has had a good opportunity… But Tianyi, where are you? Why is there no news of you? Have you really passed away?” Ding Hao sighed.
Ding Hao postponed absorbing the Jade in Stone for two hours. Sitting quietly in the secret room, he closed his eyes and thought hard with a frown.
Two hours later, he set up the strictest inscription tactical deployment around the secret room. Then he took out the Blue Pith Jade in Stone, looked at it carefully for a while, and put it into his mouth.
The process of absorbing the Jade in Stone was very painful.
It was more painful than being given a thousand cuts as if his soul were burning in hellfire. Ding Hao had experienced it many times. This time, it was no exception. The Blue Pith Jade in Stone was one of the seven extraordinary treasures. The power it contained was more terrifying, so the process of absorbing it was more painful.
The moment he swallowed the blue jade, Ding Hao felt as if a corrosive sharp blade had cut his throat. Then, it turned into countless steel needles, which shuttled back and forth in his muscles.
This sort of pain could drive an ordinary person mad.
Even many masters in the Martial Emperor Realm would faint from the pain.
Ding Hao could only clench his teeth and keep to the elemental. He was keeping a glimmer of clarity in his heart. His sea of consciousness was boiling and his Divine Senses enveloped his entire body. Being in the state of One in True Self, he stayed motionless to resist the extreme pain.
At the same time, he needed to run his Qi to guide the wisps of blue liquid to move in his body.
According to what the Saber Master and the Sword Master had said, the Blue Pith Jade in Stone was the most suitable to merge with the marrow, the blood vessels, and even the blood of the human body. In addition to strengthening the bones, it could also strengthen the blood vessels and purify the marrow. It could strengthen the Qi channels so that they could withstand the impact of more powerful Qi.
This was the effect that the top technique for cultivating the Golden Body was seeking.
Ding Hao had cultivated the Golden Body technique of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect and had integrated the Jade in Stone. His physical strength was extremely powerful, but he had not reached the realm in which his blood and marrow would be changed. The Blue Pith Jade in Stone was undoubtedly the treasure he was in urgent need of at present.
30 minutes had passed.
Ding Hao was sweating profusely, and his clothes were all soaked. His face looked a little ferocious because he was enduring the sharp pain. His teeth were almost crushed because of the clenching, and his body was trembling slightly. He had activated his Qi power with all his might, causing his body to emit crystal brilliance and slowly become transparent. He looked like a dignified jade statue.
The faint blue substance transformed from the Blue Pith Jade in Stone became faintly visible at this time. There seemed to be many living strange worms crawling in Ding Hao’s body. The substance gradually spread along his blood vessels, Qi channels, and bone marrow to all parts of his body.
This process was extremely slow.
For Ding Hao, it was like passing one epoch after another. He wanted to open his mouth and scream due to the intense pain.
Fortunately, he had endured it.
Time ticked by.
Ding Hao’s entire body was sweating profusely.
The strange blue substance was finally evenly distributed in Ding Hao’s blood vessels and bone marrow. Although it was only the size of a fist, there seemed to be more substance after spreading.
Looking from the outside, the dark blue substance perfectly outlined the image of Ding Hao’s bones and blood vessels, which looked extremely weird.
“Phew…” Ding Hao exhaled a long breath, feeling as if his lungs were burning.
He had preliminarily absorbed the Blue Pith Jade in Stone. The substance was very strange. After passing through the muscle tissues, it seemed to have automatically attached to the blood vessel walls and the bones. It would carry out a slow transformation process.
Fortunately, the intense pain had dissipated like the tide.
Ding Hao stood up and stretched.
His body felt sore and it was a little numb, but he could clearly feel that the Qi channels in his body had become tough. The blood in the blood vessels flowed like a big river that was whistling and surging. A kind of strange power was slowly growing.
“I have only absorbed about half of the Blue Pith Jade in Stone. As to the other half, I need time and to experience fierce battles to fully absorb it…” Ding Hao was feeling the state of his body. He punched out and the air in front of him exploded. A clear fist print appeared on the wall full of inscriptions. All the inscription tactical deployment was broken.
This was the physical strength of the four-apertured Martial Sage Realm.
With his physical strength alone, Ding Hao could now withstand the full blow of a master in the four-apertured Martial Sage Realm.
He was very satisfied with this result.
With a stir of his mind, he dried the sweat on his body. Water vapor above his head was condensed like clouds and it rained down. Ding Hao took a shower happily and then stopped using his magical power. He changed into clean clothes and ended his cultivation.
Judging by the timer in the secret room, it took him at least three days to absorb the Jade in Stone this time.
When Ding Hao walked out of the secret room, the sun was shining brightly.
Jin Keyan was standing outside the secret room like a statue. When he saw Ding Hao, he immediately came up to report what happened in the past three days.
The most important news was certainly about Nalan Chu. According to Shan Xiong’s message, the Nalan family’s residence was extremely quiet. During this period, Nalan Chu once appeared. It seemed that she and her brother were living a good life in the Nalan family.
Ding Hao was slightly relieved.
Before cultivating in seclusion, Ding Hao lifted the ban imposed on the people who practiced physical cultivation and allowed them to move around the city. According to Jin Keyan’s report, these energetic people did make a lot of trouble in the city and had several fights.
Fortunately, there were many people who practiced physical cultivation, so they didn’t suffer any losses or kill anyone. Moreover, they made a certain name for themselves in the Stone Mouth City. Now almost everyone in the Stone Mouth City knew that there was a group of crazy barbarians from the Ocean Forest who didn’t care about their own lives when they fought. The physical cultivation of each of them was in the Sage Realm. Provoking one of them was like poking a hornets’ nest. It was better not to provoke them.
After hearing this, Ding Hao just smiled.
In the eyes of the people outside the Ocean Forest, the people who practiced physical cultivation in the forest represented atrocity. They ate raw meat, drank blood, and fought without fear of death. They were also extremely poor. These people were like a pile of stinking and hard stones. No one could get anything from them. It was absolutely not necessary to provoke them.
As the saying goes, the one with nothing feared nothing.
That was a good thing. Now the people who practiced physical cultivation had status and deterrent power since they made a name in the Stone Mouth City through fighting. They became more useful in the protection of Ding Hao.
Right at this moment, someone reported from the outside that the old guide with messy hair had returned.
“In the past three days, many battles broke out in the city. The Eighth Divine Prince of the God’s Palace has been searching everywhere for the culprit who has rendered his son Ding Sha useless. With no results, he vented his anger on others and killed many masters of various clans. He is now like a lunatic…”
The old guide with messy hair knew that Ding Hao had come out of seclusion, so he came to report to him from afar.
Ding Hao nodded in satisfaction.
It seemed that Ding Sha’s incident had provoked the Eighth Divine Prince a lot.
That was good. The angrier the Eighth Divine Prince was, the more likely he would expose his weakness. Ding Hao believed that he could find an opportunity sooner or later to give this old enemy a fatal blow. In this way, he could get rid of the right-hand man of the Fake God Emperor.
“The Sword Daimon’s successor has appeared in the city and has killed Fei Lun, the Yin-Yang Six-Winged genius of the Feather Clan in the west…
“The successor of the Hades Ghost Sect and “Thunder Roar” Ding Ling, the young Heavenly King of the God’s Palace, fought with each other in secret. In the end, both sides were injured…
“The Mermaid Princess of the Sea Clan was irritated for some reason. She fought against an emerging genius from the Ceroman Clan and decapitated him with the Divine Trident of the Sea God…
“A genius from the Beast Clan in the north named Little Ape King has defeated 16 senior masters from various clans. Presently, he is very famous in the Stone Mouth City. He is almost invincible. Many people think that his combat capability is the highest among the masters of the younger generation in the city!”
The old guide with messy hair reported to Ding Hao one piece of news after another.
What happened these days was a prelude. Young geniuses from all sides finally began to engage in battles. Some of the young heroes who had been famous before had failed, but more unknown geniuses had risen to fame.
As for the masters from the older generation from all sides, they were still hiding in the dark for the time being and did not engage in any battles.
On the side of the God’s Palace, except for the Eighth Divine Prince Ding Chulin, who was like a lunatic, there was no obvious sign of it rising again. The mysterious Fake God Emperor had never issued any orders again. His silence was almost weird.
