Chapter 958: Rest and Recuperation
The next moment—
Poof! Poof! Poof!
Blood burst out from various wounds on Ding Chulin's body. There were suddenly numerous cracks on his body, which collapsed into blood foam like a sand sculpture. Ding Hao had cut him countless times with his sword and Ding Chulin's body had been cut into pieces. No piece was larger than a finger.
"I'll be back. I'll remember you. You're dead meat," Ding Chulin roared angrily.
In the next moment, a black light suddenly flowed out from his flesh and exploded in the void. It turned into a black whirlpool of light. Like a small black hole, it directly sucked his head in.
"What is this?" Ding Hao was shocked. With a stir of his mind, the Sword Intent of the Beginning of Spring and that of Rain Water poured into the whirlpool of light which was like a black hole.
The next moment, the black whirlpool of light disappeared.
"He has escaped…" It was too late for Ding Hao to stop him.
"What kind of power is that black light? It seems to be very similar to the power that Ding Tong had exerted in the battle in the Hundred Thousand Mountains. It could break the suppression of the rules of heaven and earth and send Ding Chulin's head away. It is really strange to the extreme."
The vitality of a God Realm Master was extremely tenacious. Ding Chulin's body had been chopped into pieces. As long as his soul and head existed, he could still recover and his life would not be in danger. However, it was inevitable that his realm would fall sharply. It was estimated that his cultivation would never return to the God Realm in a short time.
Ding Hao felt sorry that he was not able to kill this enemy.
"Go, leave here first." The Sword Master's voice came from the Rusted Sword. He was reminding Ding Hao.
Ding Hao nodded and put all parts of the golden sun armor into his Storage Ring. Then, carrying the unconscious Xie Jieyu in his arms, he left the battlefield as fast as lightning and disappeared into the depths along the passageways which had almost formed a labyrinth.
Not long after he left, numerous figures rushed over.
"He's gone?" A bald God Realm Master of the God's Palace frowned. He sensed carefully and showed a look of surprise on his face. "I feel that the power aura of the Abreast King seems to have weakened in this place…"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Weakened? Could it be that His Majesty…" Another master of God's Palace was greatly shocked. If the strength of a God Realm Master showed signs of weakening, it was almost similar to death.
The bald God Realm Master was shocked and also thought of this possibility. But then, he shook his head and said, "That shouldn't be the case. The Abreast King's strength is quite powerful and he is wearing the Sun God Armor. In such an environment, who can defeat him?"
"Chase them! We can't let the man and the woman escape!" the others shouted loudly.
At the thought of Ding Hao and Xie Jieyu having two immortal medicine catalysts, everyone became fanatical. Some people even secretly prayed that Ding Chulin could not catch Ding Hao and Xie Jieyu. In that way, they would have a chance to compete for the immortal medicine catalysts.
Ding Hao carried Xie Jieyu in his arms and left the underground labyrinth directly.
He returned to the Stone Mouth City as fast as he could.
Just in case, he didn't even return to the Red Stone Manor. Instead, he found an abandoned farmhouse in the slums of the city and set up an aura-concealing tactical deployment around it. Then he entered the half-collapsed thatched cottage with Xie Jieyu in his arms.
The Devil Saber and the Rusted Sword slowly floated around him.
Although Xie Jieyu was a woman, Ding Hao had to examine her injury. He felt a little relieved after a long while.ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ ɴovᴇl_Firᴇ.ɴet
The injury was indeed very serious, but it was just an ordinary injury. Her internal organs were just injured by the horrible impact wave and she had fallen into a coma. But with Xie Jieyu's cultivation, strange bloodline power in her body had begun to slowly repair her injury. According to this trend, it would not take long for her to wake up.
While examining her injury, Ding Hao was surprised to find that Xie Jieyu's strength and even her meridian channels were slightly different from those of ordinary people. It was a very strange constitution.
"This may be the reason why her strength improved by leaps and bounds in a few years, as well as the reason why she has become the Saintess of the Immortal Phoenix Palace in the Northern Region of the Land of Infinity." Ding Hao guessed in his heart.
The Immortal Phoenix Palace was a force of the Demon Clan. Xie Jieyu's constitution was not completely human. Maybe it had something to do with the Demon Clan. That was why she could become the Saintess of the Demon Clan. Ding Hao was sure that the mysterious Great Phoenix Saint should know something.
It was just because of this strange constitution that Ding Hao could not heal her with his own Qi.
After thinking for a while, he picked out a few healing elixirs with mild properties given by Ximen Qianxue, and carefully fed them into Xie Jieyu's mouth to help her recover from her physical injury. Then he laid a few thick fur blankets of the Demon Saint of the Fox Race on the ground and carefully placed the female Martial Demigod on them.
Rays of golden sunlight shone through the gaps in the wall and shone on Xie Jieyu's face.
At this moment, the female Martial Demigod was peerlessly gorgeous and breathtakingly beautiful.
Perhaps her image was usually aggressive and cold. When she lay down quietly like this, she had a strange temperament. Due to her injury, her cheeks were pale and her eyebrows were tightly knitted. She had never looked so fragile, which made Ding Hao worried about her.
Ding Hao remembered the lonely and helpless girl beside the Sword-cleansing Pond once more.
Perhaps in the vast world, destiny was so simple and magical. At that time, Ding Hao was just a servant in the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, and Xie Jieyu had no martial arts skills. At that time, she was not the female Martial Demigod who was famous in the Land of Infinity. At the beginning of everything, the girl and the boy met. There would definitely be an amazing story between them.
Intense guilt rose in Ding Hao's heart.
For a long time, he had been busy with various kinds of business and had never taken the initiative to pay attention to or care about this girl.
Every time she appeared by his side, it was always when he needed help the most.
Every time she finished helping him, she would leave with a faint feeling of attachment and reluctance. The two of them seldom met each other. He didn't even know what had happened to this girl all these years.
No matter what happened to her, no matter what price she had to pay, Xie Jieyu was always loyal to him without complaining anything. She was still like this even when she knew he and Li Lan had a child. She used a forbidden move for him in today's battle and she was injured by the impact wave.
Ding Hao believed that if he was in a desperate situation one day, Xie Jieyu would not hesitate to sacrifice herself to save his life.
Countless heroes admired such an incredible woman, but she had done so much for him silently.
The guilty feeling was like a tide in Ding Hao's heart.
Ding Hao gently held the small white hand of the female Martial Demigod and looked at her quietly. He swore in his heart that no matter what happened in the future, he would never let the girl in front of him down.
Xie Jieyu, who was in a coma, seemed to have felt Ding Hao's heart. She held Ding Hao's hand a little harder and smiled sweetly.
Ding Hao held her hand tightly against his cheek and prayed in his heart that she could recover as soon as possible.
According to his previous plan, after Ding Hao made proper arrangements for Xie Jieyu, he would return to the labyrinth in the cave in the Saint-alighting Mountain Range to compete for other immortal medicine catalysts. But now he changed his mind. He already had two immortal medicine catalysts. His mother's injury should be cured. Ding Hao weighed the pros and cons and decided to stay beside Xie Jieyu until she woke up.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"If she wakes up and sees that I'm not with her, she must be very sad." Ding Hao knew that this time he could not leave no matter what.
"I must let the female Martial Demigod see me at the first moment when she wakes up."
Ding Hao looked at the female Martial Demigod with extremely gentle eyes.
Time passed slowly.
Night befell the earth.
Ding Hao did not cultivate, nor did he think about anything else. He lay quietly beside the unconscious female Martial Demigod. Through the cracks in the collapsed roof, he could see the pale cyan night sky.
The rift caused by the strange light column still existed in the night sky. It was as dark as the demon abyss. Strange force kept emitting from it. It was the power that had suppressed the Qi of masters from all forces in the Stone Mouth City. There seemed to be a chessboard grid on the cyan night sky due to the interlacing wisps of black light. Like a primitive inscription pattern, it covered the sky Ding Hao could see.
He believed that at this time, under the quiet night sky, in the void of the cave in the Saint-alighting Mountain Range, there was still a crazy battle going on. Powerful warriors and people from alien clans were bleeding and dying all the time. With so many forces gathered together, it was impossible to tell the owner of the immortal medicine catalysts in a short time.
Rumor had it that the immortal medicine catalysts were only the beginning. A truly incredible Immortal Artifact would appear after them in this world.
In the void of the cave, the real masters such as the God of War of Mysterious Frost in the Northern Region, Lord Buddha from the Great Leiyin Monastery, Ding Tong, and the Fake God Emperor did not fight in the battle to compete for the immortal medicine catalysts. Their real target was the Immortal Artifact, so they did not want to expose themselves. When the legendary Immortal Artifact appeared, one could imagine that there would be an extremely fierce battle.
Ding Hao even guessed that his father would definitely take action at that time.
However, with Ding Hao's current strength, he might not be able to participate in a battle at that level. Even if he tried to fight in the battle, he could not turn the tide. He was afraid that he would distract Ding Shengtan's force at that time.
Ding Hao's mind was a little chaotic.
A long night had passed. In the distance, the sky in the east was turning bright. A new day was coming.
Ding Hao turned his head and looked at the female Martial Demigod beside him. Her complexion was much better, and her cheeks had become a little ruddy. Her breathing became long and steady, and the aura of her strength gradually became stronger.
Ding Hao got up and stretched himself. Then, he looked in the direction of the Saint-alighting Mountain Range.
At this time, he could already feel the wild vibrations of all kinds of power there. There were large patches of red morning sunlight in the sky, which seemed to have been dyed with blood. It could be seen that last night was a night of killing. No one knew how many creatures lost their lives in such a night. Blood evaporated into the sky and dyed the clouds red.
Ding Hao sat beside the female Martial Demigod and took out the golden sun armor from his storage space.
He wanted to study carefully the mysteries of this armor.
