Supreme Emperor of Swords

Chapter 754 Dark Palace

It seemed that obtaining a corpse that could be possessed was an extremely essential thing for the Spirit of the Dead.

It was obvious that these Spirits of the Dead had undergone some kind of change after they obtained the corpses. Their strength was slowly enhancing.

Especially those Spirits of the Dead that had obtained the fresh corpses, there were already some lights in their eyes, as if they were reborn.

These Spirits of the Dead were surrounding the destruction shadow loyally.

“The black-hole-level Starry River Boundary Formation should be the best you got, right? Although I know very well where the core of this formation is... ” The destruction shadow sneered. “If I break the formation with the core, won’t I be admitting defeat to you?”

Before he had finished his words, he flashed and flew straight toward the black hole that emitted a kind of terrifying devouring power. His speed was neither fast nor slow, but he could totally block the black hole’s terrifying suction force that could even distort the light.

When he was about to reach the black hole, he abruptly stopped.

Two beams of red and black light shot out of his abyss-like eyes. Compared with the huge black hole opposite him, these two beams of light were like toothpicks facing a huge shield. But something incredible happened.

When the black beams shot into the black hole, there was a brief period of silence. Then the huge black hole shook violently like a hornet’s nest that had been poked by a stick.

At first, only the inside of the black hole was trembling.

Soon, the void began to compress dramatically and then started to expand.

While it was expanding and shrinking, the boundless dark galaxy suddenly started to crack like a torn landscape. Finally, with a bang, it burst wild open.

The black hole and the starry river were divided into thousands of tiny pieces by the void debris and eventually disappeared in that man’s sight.

The black-hole-level Starry River Boundary Formation was completely shattered violently.

This was an extraordinarily strange scene.

The small world, which was originally real, began to collapse. It seemed like a huge and perfect curtain in the surrounding void being withdrawn little by little, and the frozen small world disappeared. What appeared in front of the man was a beautiful new world with a blue sky and white clouds.

Huge white stone pillars appeared.

This was the Holy Battlefield.

“What a memorable place...” The destruction shadow sighed. “If I go a bit further, I’ll reach that place, right? Hahaha, I’ll catch all those clowns in one fell swoop. At that time, the Three Great Divine Artifacts will be mine. Then I no longer have to fear anyone in the world. Even the five supreme forces can do nothing to me.”

“Kill!” The destruction shadow waved his hand.

The silent army of Spirits of the Dead suddenly became agitated and rushed toward the end of the space. They completely ignored the Holy Battlefield and flew in the void like giant birds!

Countless immortal birds and giant cranes that had originally existed here were almost all killed in an instant.

However, these immortal birds were merely illusions of spiritual bodies. After they were destroyed, there were no corpses, so the Spirits of the Dead could not possess them...

“This is the Dark Palace.”

Lu Tianhua explained to Ding Hao thoroughly.

He had never expected to see Ding Hao again after he narrowly escaped death. When the silver light appeared in front of him and Ding Hao came out of it, Lu Tianhua was a little stunned.

“We were told by a cold and noble voice like that of an immortal...” Lu Tianhua said in detail, “Before those evil Spirits of the Dead could slaughter us, we were sent here. Later, we learned that not only experts of the Human Clan and the Demon Clan entering the Towering Buddha Pagoda were teleported here but also the others were sent here, except for those who were qualified to enter the Final Divine Temple!”

Dark Palace?

Ding Hao nodded and studied the surroundings carefully.

The surrounding light was indeed a little dim, but it was no different from daytime for martial artists of their realm. There was no dome above their heads but a gray sky. There were rough stone pillars around them, some standing and others falling, looking extremely ancient.

It seemed that the so-called Dark Palace was also a small world.

The area was extremely wide.

There were at least tens of thousands of creatures here. What Lu Tianhua said was right. Experts of the Human Clan and the Demon Clan who had entered the Towering Buddha Pagoda were all teleported here.

There were numerous people here.

The Human Clan and the Demon Clan automatically formed two camps and confronted each other.

After releasing his Divine Senses to observe the surroundings, Ding Hao soon caught sight of the beautiful girl, Yu Miejue. This girl in fiery red armor could be recognized so easily. In addition to her stunning appearance, she revealed a cold aura that no strangers could approach. Thus, few people got close to her so that he could see her at a glance.

Besides, the two servants, Shi Wa and Xin Ge, were following her. They were more than three meters tall and shiny bald, which were extremely conspicuous.

Ding Hao also saw that the little giant, Arnold, whom he had met in the Holy Battlefield, had found the three of them.

The three bald giants, who looked almost the same, gathered together, talking and laughing, which was a delightful scene.

Ding Hao thought to himself, “In other words, Yue Tianxing and the rest should also be here...”

Sure enough, after observing for a while, Ding Hao found Yue Tianxing, Luo Guantian, Wei Wubing, and the others in the crowd.

These people were all sages. They were extremely powerful, and their forces were also quite influential. They were renowned and all prominent figures of a region. They could not bring their servants into the Final Divine Temple, so there were only a few of them. But at this moment, they had already gathered with their own people.

Aloof Man Yue Tianxing, in particular, had four or five hundred people around him, all of whom were powerful. He was protected by people all around, looking quite imposing.

As if sensing Ding Hao’s gaze, Yue Tianxing also turned his head to look at him.

There was undisguised viciousness and killing intent in his eyes.

Yue Tianxing was referred to as the Aloof Man. He had a great reputation on the Divine Central Continent. In people’s impression, he was a graceful, kind gentleman. He deceived the world and hid his true colors from countless people. But in the process of fighting for the God-suppressing Seal, his evil side was clearly seen by Ding Hao.

Therefore, for Yue Tianxing, Ding Hao’s existence was like a thorn in his back. He had to find a way to get rid of Ding Hao before he could be at ease.

What was more, he was fully aware that he had already had a feud with Ding Hao. He couldn’t allow this kind of genius with incredible potential to grow. Otherwise, his reputation as the Aloof Man would be destroyed. He would eventually lose his reputation.

Just casting a glance at Ding Hao casually, Yue Tianxing turned his head and greeted the people around him. With a smile on his face, he looked extremely amiable as if he were a different person.

Ding Hao was scornful of him.

Other people, such as the Martial Sage of the God-slaying Sect, Luo Guantian, Wei Wubing of the Wuji Sect, looked at Ding Hao with unfriendly expressions, but they did not attack him at once.

They also had worries.

They didn’t want more people to know the whereabouts of the God-suppressing Seal. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be good for them to seize it. They didn’t even need to communicate with each other. These absolute superiors in the Sage Realm remained silent at the same time.

The only thing that surprised Ding Hao was that the gray-haired old man, Star Gazer, had gone nowhere. He searched carefully several times but failed to see any sign of this expert. It seemed that he had vanished in the crowd.

Ding Hao pondered for a while and decided to stay calm and see what might happen.

“Since everyone has been teleported here, Uncle Tianshu, that greedy old man, should be here!” Ding Hao searched in the crowd, but he couldn’t find Tianshu.

Did he die in the Holy Battlefield?

Through the black-hole-level Starry River Boundary Formation, one would enter the Holy Battlefield. He would have to encounter powerful opponents in succession. Only after winning could he enter the Final Divine Temple. In this process, Ding Hao also narrowly escaped death. Would Uncle Tianshu be killed in the battle?

Ding Hao was a little worried.

He carefully searched the crowd again, but there was still no trace of him.

Ding Hao could not help but feel anxious.

Although Tianshu, that wretched old fellow, was a scourge, he was definitely a friend of Ding Hao. If he did die, Ding Hao would be sad.

Right at this moment...

“Everyone, please be quiet. I have something to say.”

A vigorous voice sounded in the crowd and was clearly heard by everyone.

Ding Hao turned his head.

It was a middle-aged man in his thirties, with a brown face and three long strands of black beards under his chin. He wore a green robe and rode on a giant black cat-like beast. As he spoke, the giant black beast jumped onto a half-collapsed stone pillar, which was quite conspicuous.

“Who do you think you are...” Someone immediately shouted.

Those who were able to come here were all extremely powerful figures, who were arrogant and reckless. If anyone came out and wanted these people to listen to him, he would be asking for humiliation.

But the person who shouted stopped abruptly when he was halfway through his sentence.

He was scared out of his wits.

The other people who were going to swear also chose to shut up instantly. Some people even cast gloating glances at that person who had shouted at the middle-aged man.

All these changes were caused by the middle-aged man with bronze skin riding the giant black beast. His body was surrounded by the light of Qi and a unique aura that only a Sage had in the air.

He was a Martial Sage.

In the world of martial arts, the strong were respected. Since a figure in the Martial Sage Realm had something to say, everyone present had to listen carefully. Even the absolute superiors who were at the same level as him, such as Luo Guantian, Wei Wubing, and the others, had to wait quietly.

The unlucky guy who had shouted at him rashly was so scared that he hid in the crowd with a pale face.
