Chapter 1151 Missing One Move in Chess
For a while, Ding Hao did not dare to neglect the other party.
After all, he was facing the most terrifying overlord of all time. According to the legends, the destruction of the Immortal Period and the six paths were closely related to this being. It was unknown just how many supreme masters had died in the Immortal Period, and only Hades True Immortal had survived, which could tell how horrifying his strength was.
Ding Hao originally wanted to find the weakness of Hades True Immortal in the memory or body of the dark seed, but such an unexpected situation made him a little hesitant for a while.
“I didn’t expect that there would be a peerless figure like you in the collapsed environment of the six paths. It’s really surprising.” The dark seed stopped struggling as if it had lost its soul. There was a faint smile on its face. It was a kind of indifference above all living things. It was not intentional. It was obviously the projection of Hades True Immortal’s expression.!!
Ding Hao did not speak.
To be honest, before this happened, he wasn’t prepared to deal with this overlord, and he couldn’t guess what Hades True Immortal wanted to do by projecting his Divine Senses at this time.
“Young man, don’t be nervous. I’m just too lonely and want to talk to someone.” An indifferent and calm voice was heard. Hades True Immortal seemed not to be angry at Ding Hao’s continuous destruction of his plan. He really just wanted to talk to someone.
Ding Hao also believed what he had said.
Since the start of time, the two continents had given birth to countless living creatures, including heroes and brilliant beings. However, in Hades True Immortal’s eyes, he didn’t appreciate any of them, and they were still not qualified to talk to him. He was an extremely arrogant guy, and if he couldn’t find someone who was qualified to talk to him, he would never speak.
It would be an honor to be acknowledged by this ancient giant.
“I thought that Ding Tong could be the only one qualified to talk to me, but I didn’t expect that you could replace him. The Seven Star-shaped Eyes of Fate is a rare constitution throughout the ages, but it was evolved and decomposed by you. You took it away from Ding Tong, which surprised me.”
There was a hint of surprise in Hades True Immortal’s tone.
Ding Hao still didn’t speak.
“Those superior beings couldn’t get out of my traps back then. I didn’t expect that you could make waves and stand out.” Two faint lights appeared in the eyes of the dark seed. This should be the terrifying magical power that Hades True Immortal used to observe Ding Hao through the dark seed’s body.
Ding Hao finally started talking.
He asked, “You just mentioned Ding Tong… That is to say, Ding Tong was indeed the person you chose a long time ago. So, did you plan the rebellion of the Western Expedition Army against God’s Palace and everything my father encountered?”
“You’re very smart,” the voice of Hades True Immortal sounded. “You guessed the truth so quickly. Both the Saintly Being of Saber and Sword and the Seven Star-shaped Eyes of Fate are rare constitutions. Back then, I hesitated about whom to choose between you and Ding Tong as well as your father and Bai Wuji…”
Ding Hao was deep in thought. He sneered and said, “I’m very lucky that you didn’t choose me back then.”
Hades True Immortal did not mind the sarcasm in Ding Hao’s words. He said indifferently, “Your father’s power, potential, aptitude, and status were above Bai Wuji’s at that time. He was an excellent candidate. Unfortunately, we were not from the same sect. We had different goals and could not work together. I could only settle for the second best. To me, it doesn’t matter whether a pawn is good or bad because even if it is a dead piece, it can still turn into magic in my hands.”
His words revealed a strong sense of self-confidence.
“But you still chose the wrong one,” Ding Hao said sarcastically.
“Even if I’ve set a stunning chess game between heaven and earth, it’s impossible to be foolproof. It is said that even the greatest god would leave a few flaws intentionally. If everything is within my expectations, wouldn’t it be very boring? Over the long years, I also wish to see a little surprise.” The voice of Hades True Immortal was still calm. Obviously, what Ding Hao said failed to irritate him. He continued, “Besides, how do you know that you can reach this point today not because of my forgiveness and tolerance?”
Ding Hao did not speak.
It took him a lot of effort to talk to this ancient giant. This was indeed a supreme being far above him in terms of both strength and power. It was too difficult for Ding Hao to provoke him and destroy his mind with words.
Therefore, Ding Hao changed the subject.
He went straight to the point and asked, “I’m very curious. You’ve lived for so long and done so many things that overturned so many dynasties and forces. You’ve survived so many epochs, but you have never dominated the world, enjoyed life, taken revenge, killed, or pursued fame and fortune. Why have you been hiding in the dark all the time?”
Given the power of Hades True Immortal, he could become the supreme being in the world with a single decision. As long as he wanted to, he could become a peerless overlord at any time, and the entire world would yield to him and be at his service. Even if there were countless amazing experts, they would only die in an instant before him.
It could be said that Hades True Immortal had made achievements that countless people dreamed of.
Then why did he have to go through so much trouble to set up these traps?
If even the Immortal Period was buried in his trap, what else could possibly threaten him? Or was there any enemy who could match up to him?
What answered Ding Hao was a long and deep sigh.
“I just… want to live.” The tone of Hades True Immortal finally changed a little. With faint sadness and helplessness as well as faint unwillingness, he said, “Although I have done that, I can’t live forever… To live on and become the dominator of thousands of eras, that is the real peak of martial arts.”
Ding Hao’s heart skipped a beat.
He had made such a guess before, but as time went by, Ding Hao felt that Hades True Immortal became more and more unfathomable. Since the Immortal Period, he had lived for tens of thousands of years, which was almost eternal. He had reached the peak of the martial arts world. Ding Hao had thought that people at this level could be immortal, but it turned out that Hades True Immortal would also die.
Was eternity really that hard to get?
How could Hades True Immortal die with his stunning cultivation and power?
Ding Hao had no idea what to say.
In order to survive, any living being of any clan could do anything.
But in order to survive, Hades True Immortal had caused countless eras of chaos and countless lives to die miserably. He had paid the price of Six Paths of Reincarnation. Was that really worth it? He had practically destroyed this world just to survive.
Seeming to have seen through Ding Hao’s doubts, Hades True Immortal spoke again, as though he was mocking himself. “Young man, I know what you are thinking, but if one day you reach my level, I believe you will make the same choice as me.”
Ding Hao shook his head and said, “I won’t.”
“Hoho…” Hades True Immortal just smiled and did not refute. Instead, he changed the topic and said, “Since ancient times, there has been no one who had the chance to talk to me in such a calm manner. Do you know why I would come to you?”
Ding Hao shook his head again.
“Do you wish for… immortality?” The words of Hades True Immortal suddenly became very tempting, as if the devil were whispering in Ding Hao’s ear, luring him, which instantly magnified his inner desire countless times.
Immortality was the ultimate dream that countless living beings had striven for since ancient times.
It was also very tempting to Ding Hao.
Almost in an instant, Ding Hao was about to nod.
Hades True Immortal continued, “Do you wish for…invincible power?”
His voice grew even more tempting, like a devil’s whisper.
Ding Hao clenched his teeth.
“Do you wish to… control your own fate?” The voice of Hades True Immortal became lower and lower. There was a kind of horrible charm in his tone, which made people feel that it was like the lullaby of a mother they used to listen to when they were young, which made them want to fall asleep instantly.
Immortality, invincible power, and the dominance of one’s fate.
As long as one could achieve these three points, one could transcend.
Who wouldn’t want these three things? As long as one could grant these three wishes, one could get anything, regardless of whether it was friendship, kinship, love, treasure, power, or beauty.
Countless heroes and talents would do anything to get them.
“I…” Ding Hao opened his mouth and his throat was a little dry. He felt dizzy as if he was going to fall asleep. The words spoken by Hades True Immortal seemed to have infinite charm. At this moment, Ding Hao had a desire that he wanted to immediately abandon all his concerns and obsessions, abandon all his relatives and friends, and become the one who controlled power, strength, and life.
But the moment he was about to say “yes”, a faint light flashed in Ding Hao’s mind, and he instantly came to his senses.
With the tip of his tongue close to his upper jaw, Ding Hao bit his lip.
His mind gradually became clear again.
Ding Hao looked up at the dark seed in horror. He had almost fallen into the trap just now. Unknowingly, Hades True Immortal had broken through Ding Hao’s heart of martial arts and controlled his mind with a magical power similar to ecstasy in an instant.
At that moment, as long as Ding Hao said the word “yes”, he would become a walking dead, a puppet controlled by Hades True Immortal, and no different from the dark seed corpse in front of him.
This was a terrifying magical power.
Hades True Immortal’s words almost destroyed Ding Hao.
His cultivation was truly unfathomable.
Fortunately, at that moment, the trace of clarity in the Mind Essential made Ding Hao, who was about to step on the cliff, retract his feet. Otherwise, he would have fallen into the darkness forever and never been reincarnated.
The moment he came to his senses, Ding Hao’s Divine Senses lingered and spread around his body. He activated the Mind Essential to the extreme. Waves surged in his sea of consciousness. Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled. His Spiritual Terrace was empty. His mind and will were united and extremely tough without any cracks.
It was no longer possible for Hades True Immortal to control Ding Hao again.
“Hahahaha… What a pity! You should be a good puppet! You got out of my trap at the last moment… Ding Hao, this is just the beginning. I believe we will meet again soon… I see the light of immortality in you, hahaha!”
The voice of Hades True Immortal suddenly became gloomy.
