Supreme Emperor of Swords

When Ding Hao looked over, these mercenary experts, who had experienced countless life-and-death battles, were instantly scared out of their wits and did not dare to move. They were motionless while they were locked by the Qi moves. It was as if they would be crushed by the great momentum once they made a single move.

At the same time, there came the earth-shattering sounds of fighting from below.

The five peak-stage Saint level Vast Ocean physical cultivators were like prehistoric behemoths, fighting their way through the Divine Grace mercenaries. It was as if tigers had entered a sheep pack. Wherever they passed, there left only the mercenaries bodies. In the face of the Saint level of physical strength, all kinds of magic weapons, precious weapons, and other divine weapons couldn’t withstand a single blow. Even if the Divine Grace mercenaries rushed up to the sky and tried to avoid the Vast Ocean physical cultivators, they would be directly smashed down by their opponents with powerful physical strength.

This was simply a massacre.

Ding Hao’s sword intent and sword Qi cracks, which had fallen from the sky before, not only protected the entire Guo City but also blocked the escape routes of nearly ten thousand mercenaries from all sides. The fierce plunderers were now completely like turtles in a jar and had nowhere to run.

It was over for Black-blood Dragon Mercenary Troop.

The several tens of higher-up experts in the sky all lamented. With the death of their commander, it meant that their time had already passed. The nearly ten thousand mercenaries below were all elites. Once they were slaughtered, the Black-blood Dragon Mercenary Troop, which had made its name through the entire Eastern Continent, would be completely destroyed. Two of the four great God Realm experts in the troop had already died. As long as word got out, the other Divine Grace forces would mercilessly devour the power of the Black-blood Dragon.

Ding Hao’s eyes fell on these dozens of people and finally withdrew the locked Qi moves. He said, “I won’t kill you today. Go back and tell the other mercenary groups that if they want to come to the Land of Infinity to kill and plunder, they will need to get ready to be killed first.”

Dozens of Divine Grace mercenary experts seemed to have been granted amnesty. They immediately turned around and fled like reservoir dogs.

Looking down at the ground, Ding Hao waved his hand.

The five Vast Ocean physical cultivators immediately stopped their killing.

The five thousand Divine Grace mercenaries, who were lucky enough to survive, huddled together, shivering in fear. The previous battle had completely destroyed their fighting spirit. In less than 30 minutes, more than 4,000 people had been slaughtered. All they could do was leave a few faint wounds on those Vast Ocean physical cultivators.

“Those who surrender will not be killed.” The voice of the disciples of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect resounded between sky and ground.

The remaining Divine Grace mercenaries hesitated for a moment, but under the surrounding Vast Ocean physical cultivators’ killing intent, some of them put down the weapons in their hands first. With a slight clanging sound, it completely shattered the last courage in everyone’s hearts.

Five thousand mercenaries all surrendered.

“It’s Ding Hao!”

“He’s BACK. Haha, it seems that we’ve missed something. It’s great that we don’t have to worry anymore.”

It was hard for Gu Shaochu and Hua Huai’an to suppress the excitement and joy in their hearts.

With Ding Hao there, nothing would ever be a problem.

“Greetings, Saint King Ding Hao!” Countless martial artists inside and outside Guo City shouted in unison. At this time, a great number of people had recognized Ding Hao’s identity. His fame in expanding martial arts all over the world back then was displayed at this moment. The deafening shout echoed between heaven and earth.

On this day, the Black-blood Dragon Mercenary Troop was destroyed.

This was the first force that had suffered a catastrophe among all the invading Divine Grace mercenary forces. It presented a special meaning to the war of the entire Northern Region and also made many people who had fallen into confusion and despair believe that the power of the Land of Divine Grace was not invincible.

The five thousand surrendered mercenaries were divided into cannon fodder camps by Ding Hao.

These demons, whose hands were stained with the blood of the people on the Land of Infinity, should have died without a burial place. Countless people in Guo City wished to eat their flesh and drink their blood. At first, Ding Hao was also ready to kill all of them. Later, he thought that these people had extraordinary strength and were familiar with Divine Grace forces. So he simply planted a restriction formation in their bodies and got it under control. If the Northern Region was attacked by mercenaries from other factions, he could use these people could stop them.

“If you help kill the enemy, you may regain your freedom.”

Ding Hao’s voice, mixed with the strong Divine Senses of Nebula level, shook the souls of every surrendered soldier, which gave them a glimmer of hope in despair.

One day later, Ding Hao left Guo City in Earth Province.

Before leaving, he re-set the city defense and left the five peak-stage Saint level physical cultivators in the city. On the one hand, he could deter the surrendered soldiers, and on the other hand, they could strengthen the defense power of the city. Guo City connected Snow Province with other provinces. All the space gates were built there. Ding Hao hoped that Guo could always be controlled by the Human Clan in the Northern Region. It was of vital importance to securities of all the provinces in the surrounding area, especially the Snow Province.

Not long after Ding Hao and others left, reinforcements from the Extermination Swordsmanship Sect and the Blue Cloud Sect finally arrived.

“Dad! My folks!” The young genius Hua Mojian rushed over after a long trip. When he saw that Hua Huai’an was safe and sound, he was relieved. He almost cried because he was afraid that something unexpected would happen to his father. Along the way, he encountered a lot of obstacles. He had to defeat crowds of enemies to kill his way over.

“Brother.” Gu Xing’er was also in the midst of the reinforcements.

The female God of War in the Northern Region, known as the Deadly Black Rose, had been cultivating in the Extermination Swordsmanship Sect to break through her bottleneck. When she heard that Guo City was besieged, she rushed all the way regardless of the opposition of the elders in the sect, for fear that she would see the city razed to the ground if she arrived late.

Fortunately, that didn’t happen and they didn’t get there late.

Both of them were glad about that.

But when they knew what had just happened, they jumped up in shock.

“What? Uncle Ding was here?” Hua Mojian was overjoyed. It could be said that his fate had changed because of Ding Hao. Without Ding Hao, it would be hard for him to be accepted into Deerhunter Academy, let alone enter a super sect like Extermination Swordsmanship Sect.

For a long time, Hua Mojian had always regarded Ding Hao as his greatest benefactor and idol.

After so many years, he really hoped to see Ding Hao again.

Originally, he thought that it would be almost impossible to see his benefactor again after the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect had entered the immortal land. Unexpectedly, Ding Hao appeared again. Hua Mojian was full of regret. “If I had come a little earlier, perhaps my long-cherished wish could be realized…”

Gu Xing’er’s heart was filled with complicated emotions.

She had fallen in love with Ding Hao as early as she met him for the first time. In recent years, she became more and more famous in the Northern Region. She was known as one of the top ten promising stars in the region. Countless young talents of super sects hoped to win her heart. Dozens of geniuses were willing to do anything for her, but none of them attracted her.

Gu Xing’er, who had been waiting hard, thought that she would have no chance to be with Ding Hao in this life.

But unexpectedly-

“I’m going to find him.”

This thought popped out of the depths of Gu Xing’er’s heart. It was strong and wild, and it could no longer be restrained. She had been waiting for such a long time, and she did not want to wait any longer. No obstacle could make her hesitate.

“Sister Xing’er, I’ll go with you.” Hua Mojian couldn’t wait either.

He was like a young student who finally got a high score and couldn’t wait to show off to his parents. In recent years, Hua Mojian had also made a name for himself in the Northern Region. He felt that he was qualified to present himself in front of Ding Hao.

Gu Shaochu and Hua Huai’an couldn’t talk them out of their plan.

…

“The Immortal Phoenix Palace is in the western part of the Northern Region, the Archaic Province. This is an extremely ancient land, and it is also a province that has the dominant power of the Demon Clan. Since ancient times, there have been very few Human Clan sects that could establish themselves here. Therefore, there is another nickname for the Archaic Province, called the Demons Province.”

Su Qing introduced in detail.

She was one of the five disciples of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect who followed Ding Hao this time. She was also a disciple of the Eastern Academy of green shirts who joined the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect at the same time as Ding Hao back then. She had excellent talent and was now an expert in the Semi Martial Emperor Realm. Because she was familiar with the various provinces in the Northern Region, she was specially selected by the cynical man Wang Juefeng to follow Ding Hao.

Like the other four disciples of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, Su Qing had undisguised worship for Ding Hao, and her attitude was extremely respectful.

Ding Hao nodded.

Along the way, they encountered a lot of battles. The mercenaries from the Land of Divine Grace were spread everywhere, and they couldn’t get rid of all of them.

The closer they got to Archaic Province, the weaker the Human Clan’s forces became, and the stronger the Demon Clan’s forces became.

“In half a day, we will enter the Archaic Province.” Su Qing said respectfully, “This place is already under the jurisdiction of the Immortal Phoenix Palace. Although the Demon Clan here doesn’t reject the Human Clan like the other Demon Clan forces, we still have to be careful. If we are targeted by those crazy Demon Clan members, we will become the targets of attack definitely. Senior Brother Ding, although you are not afraid of them, the possible fight will delay our time.”

Su Qing didn’t say the other thoughts on her mind.

The whole Swordsmanship-seeking Sect knew that Ding Hao and Xie Jieyu were lovers. They also knew that she was a holy goddess of the Immortal Phoenix Palace. Su Qing was worried that once there was a conflict with the palace, the relationship between the sect and the palace would worsen, which would affect the relationship between Ding Hao and Xie Jieyu. All the disciples of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect who knew what had happened between the couple hoped that they could get together in happiness.

How could Ding Hao not know what Su Qing had thought?

He made a move through his mind. His Divine Senses of the Nebula level turned into clouds and mist, surrounding his group of people. In this way, the Demon Clan outside would not be able to find them, which could prevent them from unnecessary trouble.

The group of people moved very fast.

In the blink of an eye, they had crossed thousands of miles. Although they had crossed several territories of the Demon Clan along the way, they were not discovered. The situation was a little smoother than they had expected.

“In less than ten thousand miles ahead, it will be the Immortal Phoenix Palace where the Great Phoenix Saint is at…” Su Qing was about to continue, but suddenly, there was an earth-shattering roar in front of them.

Ding Hao was stunned. He ran his Martial Arts Third Eye as a golden light column shot out from between his eyebrows and cut through the void.

“Hmm? Why are the River Warships here?” Ding Hao did not expect to see the River Warships here. Logically speaking, the Human Clan forces should not appear in the hinterland of the Immortal Phoenix Palace unless there was a war going on.
