Zhang Fan stood on the deck of “Divine Vessel No.1,” looking a little worried.

  He was looking at the void in the distance, a place completely wrapped by the rolling four-colored Demon Aura. The Aura simmered like boiling water, completely blocking out the sight, and even blocking sounds. The strange space seemed to be a mass of dirt smeared in the blue sky, with an inexpressible mystery and gloom, as if there were demons trying to break out of purgatory. A heartbeat loomed in the air.

  “Although I was confident in Ding Hao, his opponents were, after all, three high-ranking Martial Emperor Realm experts. Besides, they were born in a prestigious sect, so their inheritance can’t be underestimated. They might have all kinds of life-saving means. Senior Brother Ding might have underestimated his opponents this time,” Zhang Fan thought.

  Time flew by quickly.

  In the blink of an eye, half a day had passed.

  For several times Zhang Fan tried to rush into the mist to see what was going on. He could at least help Ding Hao. But strangely, he was sure that Ding Hao and the “Three Sovereigns of Ning Province” were in the mist, but every time he rushed over, he only penetrated through the mist and couldn’t enter the space, as if it really were a mass of mist.

  Zhang Fan was anxious, but there was nothing he could do.

  “Meow. Don’t worry. Even if everyone is dead, Ding Hao won’t die.” Evil Moon, the Fat Cat, chewed the highest grade mysterious crystals while lying on the ship’s rail limply. He said lazily, “Haven’t you heard of this saying? A good person doesn’t live long, but a scourge will live for a long time……”


  Zhang Fan didn’t know what to say.

  “Splash!”


  Ding Hao opened his mouth and spat out a stream of blood. He staggered back.

  A see-through hole as big as a bowl appeared in his abdomen, and his whole body was pierced through by the spear of the eldest one from the “Three Sovereigns of Ning Province.”


  However, the eldest’s arm was almost cut off by Ding Hao’s “Seven Black Cut—Cross Cut,” and cracks appeared on his long spear, as if it were going to break little by little. Next to him, half of the axe in the hands of the younger one had been chopped off, and at that time, only a pair of handles of the twin hammers were left on the youngest one’s hands……

  Those three were not better than Ding Hao.

  Their bodies had been soaked in blood, and their armor had been torn apart which could only protect the vital parts of their bodies. Either Ding Hao’s blood or their own blood dyed the three cyan, blue, and purple armors blood red. It was as if they had just come out of a blood pool. Their whole bodies were dripping with blood, and their exposed skin was full of shocking scars. There was a saber mark between the waist and abdomen of the younger one, which almost cut his whole body into two pieces. The youngest one’s face was covered with a deep bloody mark, from the middle of the eyebrows to the chin, which almost split him into two halves……

  At that point of their fight, the four of them were all in a rage.

  Ding Hao’s whole body seemed to have been cut into pieces. Torn flesh and blood were everywhere. Except for his face and crotch, there was no intact skin. The recovery ability of his “World inside the Body,” the sixth level of the “Mind Essential,” had begun to slow down at that time. The healing speed couldn’t keep up with the damaging speed.

  “Boy, you’ll die today. We, the three of us, will exhaust you to death!”


  The eldest one gasped.

  The three of them didn’t expect the battle to be so fierce.

  “The Qi cultivation of the young man is obviously not as good as ours, but he seems to have an immortal body. The long spear penetrated his body many times, but in the blink of an eye, he healed quickly,” He thought.

  The physique of creatures above the Primordial Realm changed completely. They had a life span of hundreds of years and were immune to all diseases. Their healing abilities were amazing, especially when they were in the Martial King Realm. However, their healing abilities were still far off when compared with that young man.

  What was even more frightening was the young man’s comprehension ability, which could even capture their fighting skills.

  Up to that moment, the secret combat technique of the “Imperial Court of Ning Province,” which could leave scars on that young man’s body, was no longer a threat to him. The extremely simple cutting skill wielded by him was getting more and more unpredictable. It was obviously a simple move, but it seemed to contain an endlessly profound meaning, which made them unable to withstand it.

  The young man was like an iron block containing impurities. In that battle, he was constantly changing and progressing. Impurities were being beaten out of his body, and he was gradually advancing toward the refinement of stainless steel.

  “Really? You’re going to kill me? How much blood can you afford to bleed?”


  Ding Hao’s heaving chest gradually stabilized.

  The “Moon Splitting” and “Shangye” in Ding Hao’s hands had experienced countless impacts, but they didn’t have any scars. The primitive inscriptions on the surface of the blades gradually became clear. Under the nourishment of Ding Hao’s Sword Intent and Saber Intent, the two giant blades seemed to have undergone a sharp transformation.

  “Let’s fight to our heart’s content!” Ding Hao thought.

  Ding Hao turned into flowing light and rushed up again.

  Zhang Fan was still waiting anxiously.

  It was already the morning of the next day.

  A whole day and night had passed, and the demon mist in front of him was still the same as when it first appeared.

  For Zhang Fan, an era seemed to have passed.

  Evil Moon, the Fat Cat, was also a little nervous. He said, “For such a long time? F*ck, Ding Hao, you scourge, please don’t die. Where can I find such a generous master, who can feed me mysterious crystals every day……?”


  Zhang Fan couldn’t help glaring at the Fat Cat.

  The Fat Cat paused for a moment, then jumped and said angrily, “Why are you glaring at me? Don’t forget who brought you to the Sage Battlefield, who flew you out of the claws of the fierce beasts, who again and again……”


  Zhang Fan immediately lowered his head.

  “Although the Fat Cat raised by Senior Brother Ding is unreliable, it has no less feelings for Senior Brother Ding than I do. Because no other pet would treat Ding Hao’s words as decrees like that Fat Cat. It tried its best to protect me all the way. The Fat Cat was almost stuffed into the mouths of fierce beasts for several times in order to save me,” He thought.

  Time ticked by.

  Sunset arrived once again.

  Just as Zhang Fan and the Fat Cat were feeling restless, the sound of a slight vibration was heard from the space. The Demon Aura fog in front of them began to surge wildly, and then it quickly expanded. The faint roar of the fierce beasts came out, and then something strange happened.

  The dense demon fog dispersed.

  A man covered in blood walked out of the fog step by step.

  “Senior Brother Ding!”


  Zhang Fan was surprised and happy. He recognized the bleeding man at a glance. It was Ding Hao.

  “F*ck, Why did Ding Hao lose so much blood? Don’t you know how nutritious your blood is? Give it all to me. Don’t waste it. Meow……” Evil Moon said and jumped to Ding Hao’s side startlingly. It stuck out his pink tongue and licked Ding Hao’s face and neck.

  It had been with Ding Hao for such a long time, so it naturally knew about Ding Hao’s experiences. The blood in Ding Hao’s body contained infinite power, which could almost match the blood of Martial Emperors and Martial Grand Emperors.

  “Damn it, you f*cking cat……”


  It was very painful to be licked by that tongue. Ding Hao grabbed its neck and threw that heartless guy away.

  “Senior Brother Ding, are you alright?” Zhang Fan checked the scars on Ding Hao’s body and was shocked.

  Ding Hao’s body was covered with dense scars and his flesh was a mess. There was no intact flesh. One of his legs was almost cut off from the root of his thigh. The two cross scars between his chest and abdomen had ripped his bones so that his internal organs could almost be seen. Fortunately, Ding Hao’s body was still strong and vigorous, without any signs of weakening. That showed that, although his injuries seemed serious, in fact, they weren’t fatal.

  In fact, Ding Hao was in a good state at that time.

  “Haha, it’s okay. This battle was very profitable, too profitable……” Ding Hao laughed.

  He really benefited a lot from the battle against the “Three Sovereigns of Ning Province. Many combat skills that were only in his imagination had been tested. Ding Hao believed that if he did it again, he wouldn’t be so embarrassed.

  He could clearly feel that after the battle, his understanding of martial arts and the application of Qi, especially the Sword Intent and Saber Intent had rapidly improved. He made a breakthrough at the last moment and finally entered the level three Sword Intent and Saber Intent. At the moment he needed to do a closed-door training to gain insights based on what he had gained in that battle.

  Behind him, the Demon Aura was rolling. Ding Hao brought out an inscription and shouted clearly.

  Endless Demon Aura began to rapidly compress, and finally turned into four streams of aura; four beasts’ hearts floated, drifting in four directions. Immediately, the four hearts turned into flowing light and went into Ding Hao’s palm. After the Demon Aura dissipated, the badly mutilated bodies of the fainted “Three Sovereigns of Ning Province” fell down.

  Ding Hao waved his hand and three forces pulled them back.

  With the sealing inscription method, Ding Hao once again sealed the strength of the three people. Ding Hao finally felt tired. He turned to Zhang Fan and said, “Let the ‘Divine Vessel No.1’ march toward the east. If you meet the big river and see the reeds on the shore, you can stop. Don’t let them die. I have something very important to ask them about.”


  Zhang Fan agreed.

  Ding Hao turned into a prepared secret room in the cabin and began his closed-door training.

  Days passed.

  In the blink of an eye, another half a month had passed.

  “The three Sovereigns of Ning Province” had already regained consciousness after their serious injuries. Their injuries were slowly recovering, but their strength had been sealed by Ding Hao. They were imprisoned on the “Divine Vessel No.1,” so they had to stay obediently. The previous battle did completely destroy their arrogance and vigor; they didn’t dare make trouble.

  Ding Hao came out once.

  After examining Ximen Qianxue’s state and strengthening the seal in the bodies of the “Three Sovereigns of Ning Province,” he returned to the secret room for closed-door training. Zhang Fan could feel that Ding Hao’s strength seemed to have not increased, but it became more unfathomable.

  On that day.

  It was windless and sunny.

  The “Divine Vessel No.1” finally flew above a swamp. Below there were boundless green reeds. It was extremely humid and the sand and mud were rolling. There were some strange demons and monsters, and the air was moist.

  Zhang Fan woke Ding Hao up, who was in closed-door training.
