In the hidden mysterious stone cave, there was a hidden formation arranged by Ding Hao three years ago, and he believed it should not have been discovered by other people.

  When he went down to more than 5,000 meters in the Great Abyss, Ren Xiaoyao’s strength was almost beyond support.

  The good thing was that the purpose of the trip had been achieved.

  A huge complete mysterious crystal floating in the air appeared underfoot. This was the huge stone that Ding Hao had found being held up by the purple Dragon Qi like an iceberg at the beginning. Its whole body was shining with a charming purple light, and the top surface was flat and could accommodate about two thousand people practicing here at the same time.

  Three years ago, Ding Hao had transformed it into a huge hidden practice retreat, which was only open to those loyal disciples with the best aptitudes.

  Now three years had passed. After Li Lan and the others had perfected and repaired it countless times, this huge Floating Crystal as large as a mountain had become a fully enclosed secret base. Apart from some practice retreats on the surface, the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect had also sent skilled craftsmen to sculpt downwards and hollow out the interior of this huge Crystal Mountain to open up a huge space, just like an underground palace.

  It was quite different from three years ago.

  The role of the Floating Crystal Mountain was extremely terrifying. Even if ordinary people practiced here, they would advance rapidly. According to Ding Hao’s original vision, the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect had sent the most elite disciples down here. In the past three years, it had cultivated hundreds of disciples above the Primordial Realm, which was almost the sum of the disciples above the Primordial Realm cultivated by the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect in the past several hundreds years.

  The outside world knew that the strength of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect had grown by leaps and bounds in the past three years, but they didn’t know how far it had advanced.

  The Swordsmanship-seeking Sect was like a giant lurking in the dark now. Once its energy burst out, it would definitely surprise the entire Northern Region.

  In the past, the only flaw of the sect was the lack of top masters, which made the sect unable to compare with real superpowers. But now Ding Hao was back. As the Saber and Sword Addict, he represented the invincible existence under the Sage Realm. Moreover, he had the Devil Saber and the Rusted Sword. Even in the face of ordinary Sages, Ding Hao would have a chance to win. Combining the two, a very terrifying giant was slowly rising.

  Ding Hao and Ren Xiaoyao didn’t disturb the sect elites who were practicing here.

  Isolating his breath and concealing his figure, Ding Hao visited this secret base. At the beginning, he only proposed an idea. Obviously, Li Lan’s design was more detailed and perfect, which maximized the value of the Floating Crystal Mountain. For the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, this was definitely the biggest secret and capital.

  Ding Hao wanted to continue to go down.

  “Senior Brother Ding, I can’t accompany you further down.” Ren Xiaoyao smiled bitterly. There was an abyss more than 5,000 meters below the ground. The continuous eruption of the purple Dragon Qi with great lifting power was more powerful than it was three years ago. With Ren Xiaoyao’s strength, it would be very difficult for him to go any further.

  “Didn’t the sect continue to explore further?” Ding Hao asked.

  Ren Xiaoyao smiled bitterly and said, “Lord Li Lan has gathered the masters of the sect and tried to dive many times, but the best they can do is to reach seven kilometers underground. It would be impossible for them to go down any further. You explored it three years ago, and there are no abnormalities during this time, so it should be safe.”


  Ding Hao nodded.

  When he had dived to 13,000 meters last time, he could no longer resist the lifting power of the purple Dragon Qi. No danger was found at that time, but when he explored it with his Divine Senses, he found that the depth of 18,000 kilometers should be at the bottom of the Great Abyss.

  “Okay, Junior Brother Ren, you can go back first. I’ll check it out again.” Ding Hao decided to go deeper.

  Now with his current strength, though his Qi cultivation was still at the peak of the Martial King Realm, his physical strength had skyrocketed due to the integration of a few pieces of Jade in Stone, which was comparable to the strength of the nine-apertured Martial Emperor, so there should be no problem for him to reach the bottom.

  He really wanted to figure out how it was like at the bottom of the Great Abyss, and why Ding Shengtan’s wristbands had been found here.

  “Then Senior Brother Ding, please be more careful,” Ren Xiaoyao said.

  Ding Hao nodded and continued to dive.

  Ding Hao began to feel the pressure when he went underground about 10,000 meters.

  But compared to the last time, it was obviously much better.

  Soon he dived to 13,000 meters underground, his last limit, and the pressure became even stronger. He exerted all his strength. With his Qi cultivation combined with his physical strength, his body slowly sank like an ancient mountain.

  He released his Divine Senses at the same time and could sense the bottom of the abyss below.

  For the next five kilometers, Ding Hao spent two hours and finally finished the dive.

  He stared at everything in front of him, dumbfounded.

  Midst the purple dust, the ground was so flat as if it was cut by a knife. It looked as smooth as a huge mirror. Standing on it, Ding Hao could see his detailed reflection, and even every strand of his hair was extremely clear. It didn’t seem to be a natural thing at all, but was artificially crafted.

  Of course, this was not the reason why Ding Hao felt so shocked.

  What really shocked him was that on this smooth mirror-like ground, six Huge Bluestone Doors were standing quietly. Each door was more than ten meters high, simple and ancient, with a rough rock texture, as if being washed by running water for countless years. The mottled surface had vaguely painted marks, but Ding Hao couldn’t see what it was. Every door was slightly open, with a strong and manic purple aura rushing from the crack of the door.

  The pillar of the purple Dragon Qi, which almost rose to the ground, overflowed from the six doors with tiny gaps.

  “What is the origin of these doors? Who put them here?” Ding Hao was extremely shocked.

  He had thought that there would be something strange at the bottom of the Great Abyss. He hadn’t expected it to be six ancient stone gates. He carefully approached one of the stone gates to observe it. He stretched out his hand and rubbed it, and the touch was cold and rough. He condensed his Divine Senses and tried to extend through the gap of the stone gate to observe the situation behind it, but his Divine Senses were blocked by an invisible force that he was unable to penetrate.

  “This door…… seems to have some kind of Seal Formation……” Ding Hao observed and saw some clues.

  The stone gate was obviously very ancient. It contained a kind of mysterious power, extremely terrifying and majestic, with a trace of ancient touch. It was neither the power of Qi nor the power of a demon. It was a kind of power that Ding Hao had never seen before. It contained a sacred aura.

  What on earth was this place?

  None of the six stone doors were opened, but each revealed a crack less than a finger wide. The leaked purple Dragon Qi turned almost the entire Back Mountain cliff of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect into a mysterious crystal mine. If they were all opened, what kind of shocking changes would they cause?

  Ding Hao tried to reach through the crack in the stone gate but was directly bounced off by a strong force.

  He suddenly realized something.

  “The Swordsmanship-seeking Sect did not find the mutation of the Great Abyss, nor did the purple Dragon Qi appear, because the six stone gates were tightly closed, and the purple Dragon Qi was sealed on the other side. Later, for some reason, there was a crack in each of the stone gates and the purple Dragon Qi overflowed, so it was discovered by the outside world!”


  It was a mystery!

  Everything was a mystery.

  Ding Hao tried various methods, but couldn’t figure out what was behind the stone gates.

  Where did these six stone gates lead to?

  If it was really a Seal Formation, then what was it sealing?

  Ding Hao racked his brain.

  In the end, he temporarily moved his attention away from the six stone gates, and began to observe the bottom of the Great Abyss carefully. It was like a huge basin, with a radius of at least several thousand meters, and the surroundings were completely transformed into crystal walls of the purple top-grade mysterious crystals with a shimmer of the ultimate charm of purple, like a dream. What disappointed Ding Hao was that apart from these six stone gates, there were no artificial traces here.

  “Well, it’s not right! There are traces of fighting here!”


  Ding Hao’s eyes suddenly darkened, and in the void about a thousand meters away from the sixth stone gates, two extremely strange auras remained.

  The auras didn’t belong to this place, seeming extremely faint. Under the cover of the overflowing purple Dragon Qi, he hadn’t noticed it before, but after he detected it, his face changed drastically.

  The faint auras made him feel a tremor that almost came from the soul.

  It was horrible!

  It was scary!

  Ding Hao fell into deep fear the moment he noticed it slightly.

  He tried to release a strand of his Divine Senses to sense it, but while he was running his Mind Essential, his Divine Senses on the seventh level were instantly crushed before they approached the remaining power of the auras. If he hadn’t immediately cut off the link between his Divine Senses and himself, he was afraid he would have been seriously injured by this remaining mysterious power.

  He was suddenly shocked.

  He had never encountered such a kind of terrifying power since his success in martial arts.

  Even in the Towering Buddha Pagoda where he had fought with the Shadow of Destruction, Chu Kuangtu, Ding Hao had not felt terrible power at this level from Chu Kuangtu.

  He remembered that Uncle Tianshu, who had turned into a bronze-colored middle-aged Martial Sage, said that Chu Kuangtu’s realm was close to the top-grade Martial Sage Realm. If the mysterious power was more terrifying than that of Chu Kuangtu, then…… Ding Hao’s mind went blank. Were they the auras left by supreme god-level masters?

  This guess was a bit weird.

  There were two kinds of auras of the same degree, and it was clear that two powerful beings had fought here.

  Two god-level masters had fought here?

  Ding Hao gasped.

  He remembered that the last time he dived three years ago, he released his Divine Senses and scanned this place carefully. At that time, he sensed the distance to the bottom of the abyss, but he didn’t notice the remaining, horrifying auras. Could it be that two god-level masters had fought here in the past three years?
