“She had a bet with him and so they withdrew from the world?

  “She was not weaker than him?”


  After reading this passage, Ding Hao thought for a moment and suddenly felt his previous understanding might have been wrong. It turned out that the Sword Tower and the Saber Tower were not built by the same person. It seemed that two former peerless masters had a bet here. Therefore, they left those pictures and notes, and from the tone of this message, the owner of the Sword Tower should be a man, and the owner of the Saber Tower was a woman.

  “But why did she say that she could not be with him?

  “According to their strength, was there something that could stop them?”


  The last sentence read: “The blood in my body is incomplete after all. If two kinds of blood can be merged into one…” There was a meaning behind the words. Ding Hao thought a lot and had a glimpse of inspiration, but he could not grasp it.

  “Maybe it’s another ancient story.”


  Ding Hao gave up.

  Like the 24 Moves of Swordsmanship, the text and pictures of the 24 Moves of the Saber Technique might seem extremely clear at first glance, but when he wanted to study them carefully, those patterns would be blurry, just like looking at flowers in the fog. When he stared a little bit longer, he would feel dizzy.

  “The saber techniques I’ve mastered are lacking, so it looks like I have to go to the first floor!”


  This time, without the Saber Master’s explanation, Ding Hao knew what happened, and walked down the white jade stairs to the first floor.

  At the very center of the lobby on the first floor, the hunter boy Zhang Fan sat cross-legged.

  He has his eyes closed tightly and was frowning tightly, apparently thinking about something. A huge black saber was lying beside him. All his strong muscles had sharp edges and corners and were slowly vibrating, like a beating drum. Every inch of his skin was shaking slightly at an incredibly high frequency, as if the impurities in his body were being squeezed out in that way!

  The meaning of Supreme Kung Fu Devoted by Ten Emperors was indeed breathtaking.

  Ding Hao’s gaze swept across the walls.

  As expected, there were saber techniques engraved on all four walls. They belonged to the works of ancient times and were all at the sky level. Each one was engraved extremely neatly. There were also some pattern demonstrations. They were much more tidy and clear than those sword skills. The four walls were the four types of saber techniques: attack, defend, charge, and retreat.

  “The founder of this tower was a woman, so she was more careful and acted rigorously, and the creator of the Sword Tower should be a man, not sticking to trifles. He engraved those pictures and notes at will, so they look to be in disorder…”


  Ding Hao analyzed in his heart.

  By this time, almost all the mysteries in the Heaven Sabre – Peerless Sword Tower had been explored—


  Except for those two seemingly ordinary linen rush cushions.

  The gain in the white jade buildings was far greater than Ding Hao’s expectations. It was really a treasured place that had not been reclaimed successfully for tens of thousands of years. The saber techniques and the swordsmanship here were equivalent to the library collection of any super sect in the Northern Region.

  The Saber Master and the Sword Master said that those two white jade buildings were completely prepared for a Saintly Being of Saber and Sword. Those words were not exaggerated at all. No one could master all those 400 techniques and skills in less than four months and integrate them into his own mind, except for a Saintly Being of Saber and Sword who had no bottlenecks when cultivating the saber techniques and the swordsmanship.

  Ding Hao had already known how to spend the next period of time.

  At this time, the light in the Seventh Heaven became dimmer and dimmer, and it should be night.

  Although the high altitude of the giant city was blocked by a shield similar to an ice crystal, it would become dim at night. The spiritual Qi inside the giant city was much thicker than the other places in the Sage Battlefield. Perhaps it was because the inscription was set outside.

  As Ding Hao went back to the first floor of the Sword Tower, he found that Shen Buhui and others were cultivating as much as possible.

  Ding Hao talked with Shen Buhui again for a while and asked him to inquire about some news. Then they copied 10 swordsmanship and 10 saber techniques and returned to the second floor to start training.

  …


  Over the next 10 days, it was calm.

  In addition to practicing daily, Ding Hao would spend some time to go out. Sometimes, he was trying to get familiar with the giant city in the Highest Heaven. Sometimes, he would visit the geniuses of the big sects who appeared below the Heaven Sabre – Peerless Sword Tower that day. After all, many people had sent invitations that day, and Ding Hao had promised to visit them.

  Ding Hao was gradually expanding his social contacts.

  Over the next few days, the practice of swordsmanship and saber techniques was naturally extremely smooth. Ding Hao’s understanding of sword and saber had grown rapidly. Meanwhile, he had made many new friends, especially Song Que, the chubby leader of the Top 12 in Green Province in the Blue Cloud Sect. They became almost sworn brothers.

  Ding Hao’s influence throughout the Highest Heaven was increasing day by day.

  The Three Emperors of Ning Province later heard about what had happened in the Seventh Heaven. They went to the Heaven Sabre – Peerless Sword Tower several times, warmly congratulated Ding Hao, and repeatedly expressed their willingness to fully implement the previous agreement. Their posture was very low. They had apparently put themselves in the supporting position.

  They were now very glad that they had signed the Mysterious Frost Contract with Ding Hao. With the current influence of Ding Hao in the Highest Heaven, lots of geniuses wanted to ally with Ding Hao. If the Three Emperors of Ning Province did not have the agreement and wanted to meet Ding Hao, they would have had to queue for three days.

  Fortunately, Ding Hao did not snub them.

  The old agreement was still valid.

  “It is said that many disciples of super sects recently have entered the Highest Heaven. The total number of the Human Clan and the Demon Clan has exceeded 6,000, and four of them have clearly stated that they have a piece of a map of the mysterious site. If we count them all, there should be a total of 11 pieces. Plus the one in Brother Ding’s hands, only the last piece has not appeared, but many people are convinced that with 10 pieces, they can basically know the road. The last one doesn’t matter!”


  The eldest of the Three Emperors of Ning Province had inquired a lot of news recently.

  “Yes, Brother Ding, now it is clear that Song Que in the Blue Cloud Sect has a piece of the map, and Senior Brother Ling Shixiong in the Black Evil Sect has one. Mo Zhaonv from the Extermination Swordsmanship Sect has one. Sky Demon Saint Son of the Sky Demon Peak has one. We should not underestimate these people’s strengths and sects. The other five pieces of the map are in the hands of some outstanding masters. With this map, these people are gathering other experts of martial arts and secretly accumulating strength. It seems that we have to take action to search for the mysterious site…”


  The youngest of the Three Emperors of Ning Province honestly told Ding Hao what he knew.

  This arrogant prince behaved like an obedient lamb before Ding Hao.

  Ding Hao knew their real thoughts. He laughed and said, “You want me to release the news that one piece of the map is in my hands to attract those free masters to participate in the mysterious site-searching?”


  The eldest of the Three Emperors of Ning Province nodded and said, “As you have said, that is our thought.”


  Ding Hao was not in a hurry to express his stance, but said quietly, “Well, tell me why.”


  Seeing that Ding Hao did not oppose him at once, the eldest brother was relieved and continued, “In today’s situation, the historic moment of gathering maps is around the corner, and Brother Ding, you have successfully opened the Heaven Sabre – Peerless Sword Tower, famous in the giant city of the Highest Heaven. You’re now qualified for the competition. If people find out the news of your holding one piece of the map, a lot of free masters will come to form an alliance. Also, our Tianning Dynasty will expand our influence in secret. I believe that the strength we could gather will definitely not be worse than Song Que’s, Ling Shixiong’s, and Sky Demon Saint Son’s…”


  Having said so much in one breath, the leader of the Three Emperors of Ning Province paused, sorted out his thoughts, and then continued, “It is said that the top powerhouses, such as Song Que, have been secretly meeting many times, and they are working together to discuss the reclamation of the mysterious site. Time and tide wait for no man. If our momentum is not enough or we don’t catch up with them in the early stage, I am afraid that once the forces of other parties reach a balance, even if we have one piece of the map, we will be at a disadvantage and lose the right to speak…”


  After he finished his words, Ding Hao nodded calmly and said, “Okay, just do what you say, but when you release the news, you should tell them that the map is in your hands, not mine!”


  The eldest of the Three Emperors of Ning Province was happy, but immediately thought about something and said worriedly, “But… our Tianning Dynasty is famous in the Northern Region, but in the giant city of the Highest Heaven, our influence is not as good as what you have accumulated over the past few days, so I’m afraid…”


  “It doesn’t matter.” Ding Hao smiled and said, “You can declare to the outside world that I have made an agreement with you, that we’re a team. This will have the same effect as you thought.”


  The eldest prince was very happy. He got up excitedly and said, “Okay, that’s a good idea. I will arrange it immediately, and if there is any news, I will report to you as soon as possible.”


  Ding Hao nodded and stopped talking.

  The three men said goodbye and left the tent 20 meters away from the Heaven Sabre – Peerless Sword Tower.

  Ding Hao asked Ai Qing to pitch the tent temporarily to entertain some visitors. After all, the special nature of the Heaven Sabre – Peerless Sword Tower made it impossible for outsiders to enter. Such rules were well known to everyone. Many people who had a forbidden land did so and no one would object to that.

  Back in the training room on the second floor of the Sword Tower, Ding Hao continued to practice.

  In the past half month, he practiced almost day and night. He finally mastered the 10 saber techniques and 10 sword techniques that he had copied. For Tian Neng, Ai Qing, Shen Buhui, and others, that speed was unprecedented. If they knew that, they would definitely treat Ding Hao as a perverted monster, but Ding Hao was not satisfied with himself.

  Because there were only about 100 days left that they could stay in the Sage Battlefield.

  During the 100 days, he would have to master the remaining 90 saber techniques and 90 sword techniques, and then practice the 24 Moves of Swordsmanship and 24 Moves of the Saber Technique. After that, he needed to explore the mysterious site and control the inscriptions of the Sage Battlefield and the god fire… Today’s practice speed was far from enough!
