Supreme Emperor of Swords

Chapter 1144 Something Unbelievably Bizarre

While they were talking, Ding Hao’s entire body was shrouded in a kind of chaotic mist.

This kind of mist was not the mysterious strength of ice or fire. It was a brand new power that did not belong to any of the five elements, nor was it a common force similar to space elements or other elements. Instead, it was a kind of power that was almost primitive. It seemed that it could be converted between the five elements and various mutated energies at will. It was extremely mysterious and contained the charm of the Great Tao.

Under this power, the cracks on the surface of Ding Hao’s body gradually began to heal.

The chaotic mist seeped into Ding Hao’s body along the blood streaks, nourishing him.

Gradually, the various forces running in Ding Hao’s body were in an extremely strange balance with the power of the killing tribulation between heaven and earth in the outside world. The power of the killing tribulation could still oppress Ding Hao to a great extent, but it could no longer hurt his body. The Divine Senses of the Mind Essential, like tides, were released in the surrounding void, and he could clearly perceive the constantly changing power of the rules in the killing tribulation.

He felt as if being guided by an experienced teacher to solve a complicated problem.

During the process, all kinds of power of the rules were shown in Ding Hao’s Divine Senses.

For martial artists, it was really rare to have such an opportunity to observe the changes in the rules. Since ancient times, almost no one had the luck to hold on in such an environment as Ding Hao because once the killing tribulation broke out, even a God Realm Master would only die. Moreover, there had been only two such killing tribulations since ancient times, including this one that had been incomplete.

Time passed by.

The Invincible Fighting Method was running automatically in Ding Hao’s body to resist the invasion of the killing tribulation between heaven and earth. He was observing and comprehending the changes in the rules around him with all his heart and soul. In the vacuum zone between the magma and the sea, the horrible heat was enough to kill a Semi God Realm Master in an instant. The surrounding chaotic space and time constantly destroyed and gave birth to all kinds of rules of heaven and earth. Countless demons and monsters from the Ancient Era and Immortal Period lived in the magma, and their strength was comparable to that of the middle and low-level God Realm Masters, but they were also strangled into pieces in an instant.

It was a pity that these ancient mutants, who had been sleeping in the magma and had managed to survive, were suddenly killed by such a killing disaster.

Time ticked by.

Ding Hao did not know how long it had been.

Gradually, he felt that the chaotic and broken rules around him began to stabilize, and the pain that made his skin hurt gradually dissipated. The speed of the Invincible Fighting Method in his body gradually slowed down, and the mysterious strength of ice and fire stopped merging. The new power that had appeared slowly ran in the Twelve Meridians and Six Strange Veins. It was distinct from the other two kinds of mysterious strength and was not mixed together.

In this way, Ding Hao had a third kind of power in his body.

He observed carefully and found that the icy mysterious strength was still circulating in the Twelve Meridians, while the fiery mysterious strength was still flowing in the Six Strange Veins. Only the newly produced strange power began to flow between the Twelve Meridians and the Six Strange Veins at the same time. Every time it circulated and recycled, it was a super-large circulation.

Ding Hao tried to mobilize this kind of power and found that he could not control this power at will for the time being.

Moreover, he found that every time the new power circulated a large circle of vital energy, the change would be also extremely weak. It seemed to have been strengthened, but the growth speed was too slow.

“Every time I use it, it will consume my energy a bit, so this kind of power can’t be used at will.” Ding Hao came to this conclusion. The might of the new power was extremely terrifying, but its cultivation growth was too slow. He was worried that if it was used up, it was very likely that it would not be easily produced again just like a seed. Once the seed was consumed, it would be difficult for him to gain anything more.

After thinking about it, Ding Hao put the new power aside for the time being. He ran the mysterious strength of ice and fire, only to feel comfortable all over, and his mysterious strength was as powerful as a surging river. He had reached the Completion of the dual meridian eight-apertured Martial Demigod Realm, which was a level higher than before. The apertures in his body were clear, and he was only one aperture away from the Immortal Realm where the eternal martial arts existed. As long as he reached the Completion of the dual meridian nine-apertured, he would be a Semi Immortal.

That realm was something no one had ever reached since Immortal Period.

Now Ding Hao was only one step away from the legendary realm.

The killing tribulation of heaven and earth came quickly, but it also left quickly.

Soon, Ding Hao clearly felt that the killing power that had condensed between heaven and earth had receded like a tide along with the vacuum between the seawater and the magma. With the decrease of the temperature from the magma, the bottom of the sea began to slowly solidify, and the temperature of the seawater began to drop. The magma quickly cooled down, and the large pieces of crimson color began to fade away. Finally, they turned into strange brown rocks. They were still hot, but they had completely solidified.

The terrifying heat from the ground slowly receded.

The changes in the earth’s shell seemed to be about to end.

After this disaster, the terrain at the bottom of the sea had completely changed, and not a trace of its original appearance could be found.

When Ding Hao released his Divine Senses to observe everything within a radius of thousands of miles, he found that he was already in a death zone. All the sea beasts, fish, and other marine creatures had died. The nearest city of the Sea Clan had also turned into a barren land with scorched black rocks and was completely engulfed by magma.

Fortunately, the killing tribulation was finally over.

Ding Hao was no longer lurking under the water.

After running his power a bit, he rose to the sky in an instant, like a Divine Dragon rising to heaven.

Boom!

Water columns rose into the sky.

Ding Hao went to the surface of the sea.

The sky was blue, and it was clear.

Ding Hao could still feel the faint aura of chaotic elemental forces in the void. Obviously, when the killing tribulation of heaven and earth took place at the bottom of the sea, the space above the sea could not get away from it, and something horrible happened. But Ding Hao could not guess what had happened at that time.

But soon, Ding Hao’s face showed a trace of surprise.

That was because he saw an island on the sea ahead.

“There’s actually an island. Logically, there shouldn’t be an island within the Seven Seas.”

Ding Hao thought about it, but this island might be a new island that appeared after the killing tribulation of heaven and earth due to the movements of the crust’s plates under the sea. Thinking of this, he felt a little relieved. Since he had witnessed the eruption of the killing tribulation of heaven and earth, all the other phenomena seemed too simple to him now.

Looking at the position of the sun, Ding Hao could roughly tell the directions and then continued to move southward.

After he advanced for about ten thousand miles, some floating miscellaneous things appeared on the sea surface in front of him. There were some huge sea beasts’ bodies, huge trees, and some underwater plants. They covered the sea surface in large pieces. Obviously, they had died in the killing tribulation of heaven and earth before. However, these sea beasts’ bodies could be preserved, which meant that this area should be relatively less affected when the killing intent of heaven and earth broke out. Otherwise, these sea beasts would have been shattered as soon as possible, just like those ancient monsters in the magma. It was impossible for them to live.

Looking around, Ding Hao found that it was like a death zone.

The stench of blood and gore filled the air.

After two hours, Ding Hao crossed the sea area of about a million kilometers.

Gradually, his expression grew strange.

Because as the number of corpses, trees, and other strange things floating on the sea gradually decreased, there were more and more islands ahead. At first, Ding Hao still thought that these islands were the new ones caused by the killing tribulation of heaven and earth, but he gradually felt that something was wrong. On some islands, Ding Hao found plants. Although they were destroyed beyond recognition, some traces left were indeed enough to show that these islands had existed for a long time.

“How… how could this be?”

Ding Hao couldn’t believe what he had just seen.

“Could it be that there is another world in the Seven Seas? How could there be such islands? This is different from the description of the Seven Seas by the creatures on the Land of Divine Grace. Or is it that no one has ever gone deep into the Seven Seas, so the creatures on the land had a wrong understanding of the Seven Seas? Is what I’m seeing now the real Seven Seas?”

With doubts in his heart, Ding Hao continued to move forward.

Since an island had appeared, he believed that there would definitely be creatures appearing. When the time came, he would just need to ask around.

After another hour.

The appearance of the islands below finally became a little clearer. The killing tribulation seemed to have weakened here. Several large islands were well preserved and covered with more vegetation, and there were also fierce beasts living on them. However, they were obviously frightened by the previous killing tribulation and hid in their caves, shivering as if they were scared out of their wits. Ding Hao searched the sea of consciousness of these creatures and did not find any valuable memory.

But gradually, Ding Hao felt strange.

Because he found that he seemed to be familiar with some islands as if he had seen them somewhere before.

Finally, when a familiar island appeared in front of him, Ding Hao was completely stunned in the air, as if he had been struck by lightning. His eyes were wide open as if he had seen a ghost. He muttered in disbelief, “How could this be? How could this be? Why? What on earth happened?”

The island below was not very large. It was covered by a pink-colored mist, emitting a faint fragrance.

That pink mist had the color of peach blossoms.

The island was covered with peach blossoms. The flowers were blooming and extremely beautiful.

Layers of transparent shields covered the entire island. Obviously, this island had been hit by huge waves not long ago. The ports and docks on all sides of the island were a little messy. Fortunately, the island was protected by inscription tactical deployments, so it was not affected by the disaster. This was the largest island within a radius of tens of thousands of miles, and it was located at the edge of the area where the killing tribulation of heaven and earth took place, so it survived.
