Ding Hao’s current appearance was somewhat similar to Ding Shengtan’s back then. Their auras were especially similar. At this moment, Ding Tong seemed to see the Eldest Divine Prince again who had been gloriously radiant once.

  But Ding Tong shook his head the next moment and didn’t put much concern on it.

  There were many similar people in the world. Even though Ding Hao had repelled his Emperor Style of Saber and Sword in the battle in the Hundred Thousand Mountains, he still did not connect Ding Hao with the little boy 16 years ago. After all, in his heart, the Saintly Being of Saber and Sword had been completely destroyed, and the boy would never live until now.

  On the opposite side, Ding Hao had shown his real appearance.

  Standing on the mountain road of Mount Immortal Tao, Ding Hao was in a jade-like cyan robe with long hair as black as ink. An extraordinary aura spread out in the piercingly cold gales, which was not inferior to Ding Tong’s at all.

  Their auras collided.

  At this moment, the two real peerless geniuses in the third generation of the God’s Palace finally stood face to face.

  “I’m very curious where you came from. Why is there nothing about you in the information gathered by the God’s Palace before? Could it be…… that you are also a reincarnated demon star?” Ding Tong stopped five meters away from Ding Hao and carefully observed the latter with his remaining eye……

  He didn’t use his Seven Star-shaped Eyes of Fate. His single eye was flickering with curiosity.

  Ding Hao said nothing.

  His aura was gradually getting stronger and stronger.

  He had met the Fake God Emperor, and now he met Ding Tong. It indicated that the God’s Palace and the dark force had noticed him. If he wanted to go further, this battle was inevitable.

  Ding Hao would not hold back his strength this time.

  However, Ding Tong seemed to have no intention of making a move immediately.

  With a faint meaningful smile on his face, he said, “Given your aptitude and talent, you’ll have endless possibilities. You’re even inferior to me too much. Why do you choose to help Ding Shengtan? A wise bird chooses the tree it will nest in. Ding Shengtan was utterly defeated sixteen years ago. He is not a good tree. Why don’t you follow me? I can promise you now that I’ll let you be the dominator of the Land of Divine Grace in the future.”


  “Why don’t we have a fight?” said Ding Hao calmly.

  “You’re so stubborn.” Ding Tong shook his head slightly. “It’s a pity. I really don’t want to kill a genius like you.”


  “Don’t you think you’re over-confidence?” Ding Hao sneered.

  Ding Tong was stunned, and then he chuckled. His laughter was full of ridicule.

  “Well, why do I have to be unconfident? You don’t know what the real most powerful force in this world is right now, nor do you know who is dominating this world. Common people can only see the surface of things forever, including you. You are no different from those stupid creatures. But now, I have attained the qualification of transcendence.”


  Ding Tong looked at Ding Hao condescendingly.

  “I may not know who is dominating this world, but I know that it is definitely not you.” Ding Hao ridiculed him and said, “I am not interested in dominating the world, but if I’m sure I’ll be happier I can kill you.”


  Ding Tong laughed disdainfully and said, “Oh, I see. You want to prove that you are the top genius of this epoch?”


  Ding Hao shook his head and said, “You are really too self-righteous…… Cut the crap. Let’s fight.”


  “Let me show you something first.” Ding Tong raised his hand. There was a faint silver light shooting out from his fingertip into the void.

  A clear screen appeared in the void.

  “You’re a rare genius. Although you’re not willing to submit to me, I don’t want a genius, who has repelled my Emperor Style of Saber and Sword, to die in obscurity. So I give you an extra favor. Before killing you, I’ll show you who will get the real Immortal Artifact,” said Ding Tong with a smile.

  The scene of the peak of Mount Immortal Tao appeared on the screen in the void.

  The chaotic Immortal Tao mist pervaded the air, which looked like the scene of the primordial world at the beginning of creation. The peak of Mount Immortal Tao was not an open space but a stone forest consisting of white stone pillars. It was hard to judge whether the pillars were natural or artificial. The Immortal Tao mist floated among the stone forest, and the Chaotic Aura kept changing, which contained the chaotic power that existed before the beginning of creation. One would be crushed and converted back into chaos in an instant if he fell into the mist even if he was a god-level master.

  However, the white stone pillars were able to exist in the chaotic mist, just like the divine objects that had been existing before the creation of the world and were never unchanging.

  In the center of the chaotic mist, a ray of peculiar light was flickering.

  Even without guessing, Ding Hao knew the Immortal Artifact was there.

  Only the light of the Immortal Artifact could penetrate the chaotic mist. Ding Hao didn’t know whether Immortal Artifacts were divided into high and low grades. If so, the Immortal Artifact nurtured by heaven and earth was definitely of the highest grade. Otherwise, its light would never be able to penetrate the primordial chaotic mist.

  “But with the obstruction of the primordial chaotic mist, how can one obtain that Immortal Artifact?”


  As if having guessed Ding Hao’s doubts, Ding Tong explained everything he knew. “The chaotic mist can destroy all treasures inferior to the Immortal Artifact in the world. If I enter the mist with my physical body, I can’t survive. The chaotic mist is not constant. Under the gales of Immortal Tao, it will rise and fall like a tide. Sometimes it is thin and sometimes thick. When it is at the thinnest state, people can avoid it and approach the Immortal Artifact through the white Primordial Sky Pillars.”


  “Primordial Sky Pillars?”


  Ding Hao’s focus fell on the white stone pillars.

  They were indeed the only things that could exist in the chaotic mist. If the mist became a bit thinner, the tops of the stone pillars would reveal. A master could step on the tops of the stone pillars and get close to the Immortal Artifact at the center in the shortest time.

  Once one obtained the Immortal Artifact, he could use its power to protect himself. At that time, walking out of the chaotic mist would be as easy as pie.

  At this moment, the scene on the screen in the void changed, showing the periphery scene outside the chaotic mist where six vague figures floating in the void. They seemed to be waiting for something quietly. All of them were in different locations. Obviously, they were a little vigilant against each other. The atmosphere was intense, but none of them made a move.

  They were six extremely terrifying masters.

  Their bodies were surrounded by misty brilliance. The void around them rippled, and even light had been distorted. There was no way to pry into the inside situations.

  “One of them is Ding Shengtan,” said Ding Tong with a faint smile.

  Ding Hao’s heart skipped a beat, but his expression remained unchanged.

  “Father has already been here?

  “If so, the Fake God Emperor should have already reached the peak of Mount Immortal Tao.

  “Who are the other four people?

  “Ding Tong didn’t go to the peak of Mount Immortal Tao to look for immortal fate but waited for me here instead. Would he be so crazy that he chooses to revenge me in this place rather than take the chance to compete for the Immortal Artifact just because I repelled his Emperor Style of Saber and Sword in the battle in the Hundred Thousand Mountains?”


  In Ding Hao’s memory, Ding Tong was definitely not such a man.

  This peerless genius of the God’s Palace never cared about whether it was right or wrong when he did anything. Most of the time, he was like a cold-blooded animal. He only considered the gains and losses and would never give up the great opportunity to compete for the Immortal Artifact for an unimportant cause.

  “After another tide of the chaotic mist, the Primordial Sky Pillars will reveal some parts that are enough for people to stand on. Soon we will know who can obtain the Immortal Artifact.” Ding Tong’s face lit up with peculiar brilliance. He looked at Ding Hao and said, “Why don’t we make a bet on who will get the Immortal Artifact? If you lose, you’ll have to follow me. What do you think of it?”


  Ding Hao sneered.

  Ding Tong was a little abnormal today.

  “Why does he keep asking me to follow him? Is it really just because he is interested in my aptitude? That’s absolutely impossible.” Ding Hao wouldn’t believe in such a simple reason.

  “Even the Fake God Emperor purposely left a virtual shadow to meet me.

  According to what the Fake God Emperor said, Ding Hao caught his attention because Ding Hao had repelled the Emperor Style of Saber and Sword. Previously, the reason sounded rational. But at this moment, Ding Hao suddenly felt that the reason was a little untenable.

  The Fake God Emperor was the dominator of the continent, but he had purposely left a virtual shadow. How could his reason be so simple?

  Enlightenment flashed through Ding Hao’s mind like thunder.

  He suddenly realized that Ding Tong might stall for time.

  “Ding Tong is stopping me from reaching the peak of Mount Immortal Tao.

  “However, with my current strength, even if I arrive at the peak of the peak, I will not be able to compete with the six people for the Immortal Artifact.” In fact, Ding Hao just wanted to assist his father in the competition. He was not sure whether they could succeed or not. According to this point, Ding Tong and the Fake God Emperor shouldn’t have spent so much effort on him.

  Ding Hao was bewildered.

  However, he didn’t intend to think about it further.

  Since Ding Tong did not want him to go up, he had to rush through by force.

  Ding Hao stretched out his hands in the void. Instantly, the Devil Saber and the Rusted Sword appeared in his hands. When dealing with a genius like Ding Tong, he would never be careless or hold back his strength at all. He had already adjusted himself to the peak state.

  “Well, it seems that you have understood something, but it’s too late.” Ding Tong’s smile was arrogant as usual.

  He had no intention of making a move at all.

  Ding Hao took a step forward and began to inject the Qi in his body into the Devil Saber and the Rusted Sword. However, Ding Hao suddenly heard a familiar voice at this moment.

  “Master!”


  Ding Hao was rooted to the spot.

  It was Nalan Chu’s voice.

  “Master, where are you? Please come and save the Youxia……” A faint and frightened voice rang in Ding Hao’s ear. Nalan Chu was like a frightened deer, calling Ding Hao in an unknown place.

  Nalan Chu was not on the mountain road.

  She did not enter the Saint-alighting Mountain Range at all.

  But why did her voice ring out here?

  Ding Hao looked around. The gales of Immortal Tao were whistling, but there was no sign of Nalan Chu.

  “Could it be an illusion?”


  Ding Hao held his breath and concentrated his mind, but he could no longer hear Nalan Chu’s call.

  He frowned slightly and focused his attention on the archenemy in front of him again. The Devil Saber and the Rusted Sword began to vibrate slightly, and the forbidden power inside them was slowly released, spreading around like flames.
