Chapter 484 - Ancient Sword Skill

Senior Brother Ling’s expression was as gloomy as water under his black cloak.

He didn’t violate the rules of the Highest Heaven when he attacked a cat, but he didn’t expect that he would fail. One could imagine the anger in his heart.

At the same time…

“I know what some of you are thinking. Do you really think that my people are weak and can be bullied? Haha, if anyone wants to court death, I might as well help him now.” On the roof of the Heaven Sabre – Peerless Sword Tower, Ding Hao’s voice was cold and ruthless.

As soon as he finished speaking…

The lit stone lantern at the top of the Heaven Sabre – Peerless Sword Tower shook slightly and a ray of red light suddenly burst out. It shot down in a split second, and the first person to be attacked was Senior Brother Ling.

“Boom!”

The thin thread of red light seemed to contain infinite power and suddenly knocked Senior Brother Ling back six or seven steps, trembling as if had been struck by lightning. His black cloak was lifted, revealing a vicious triangular face. His appearance was a little similar to Pan Yixin’s. He was wicked, as if he was always with ghosts.

His chest was heaving violently, indicating that Senior Brother Ling had just been hit hard.

Everyone was secretly shocked.

“Senior Brother Ling’s strength is powerful enough to rank in the top 10. How could he be so vulnerable?”

“Since you’re also a member of the Human Clan, it’s not easy for you to reach the Martial Royal Realm. I’ll spare your life this time, but you won’t be so lucky next time.” Ding Hao’s words became heavy and majestic in everyone’s heart at that moment, making them realize that the young man who had reclaimed the Heaven Sabre – Peerless Sword Tower was far more frightening than they thought.

At least, they couldn’t afford to offend Ding Hao, as he was in the Heaven Sabre – Peerless Sword Tower.

“Good, very good, boy. I’ll let you be proud for a while. I’ll remember you.” Senior Brother Ling’s eyes flashed with fierce intent.

Ding Hao no longer looked at him. He turned to Pan Yixin and said coldly, “Hurry up and fulfill your promise, and then get out of here. I don’t have so much time to waste on you.”

Pan Yixin was so anxious and angry that he almost spat out a mouthful of blood. He gritted his teeth and was about to leave, but suddenly he seemed to hear something. With his eyes becoming bright, he roared, “Haha, you are proud too soon. I said before that as long as you can reclaim one of the Eight Forbidden Lands, I’d kneel down and call you Grandpa. But now, what you have reclaimed is the Heaven Sabre – Peerless Sword Tower, not one of the Eight Forbidden Lands. What right do you have to force me to exchange my promise?”

Everyone was stunned.

Unexpectedly, Pan Yixin had come up with such an excuse.

“It’s more difficult to reclaim the Heaven Sabre – Peerless Sword Tower than to reclaim one of the Eight Forbidden Lands. Ding Hao has completed what you said several times. Now that you’ve come up with such an inferior excuse, you’re really shameless to say it…” Lin Tianhao was also amused by his words.

“Well, so what? What I said was one of the Eight Forbidden Lands, not anything else. Since he has not reclaimed any of the Eight Forbidden Lands, I naturally don’t have to keep my promise…” Pan Yixin cackled because his excuse seemed to be working.

Of course, it was not him who came up with such an idea.

However, at that moment, a voice came from the White Jade Courtyard in the distance. Obviously, the mysterious master of the Demon Clan told him to do so secretly. It seemed that that mysterious person did not break the restriction of the Heaven Sabre – Peerless Sword Tower. He was still unconvinced in his heart, so secretly he gave Pan Yixin some advice. In fact, he targeted Ding Hao.

But for Pan Yixin, if he could solve the immediate problem, he need not care so much.

“Well, it seems that I really underestimated your impudence. Go away.” Ding Hao waved his hand impatiently.

Beyond expectation, Pan Yixin had such an urgent mind. Although his reason was hateful, it made sense in a literal way. He didn’t want to be so entangled in such a matter. He had to quickly get familiar with the Heaven Sabre – Peerless Sword Tower and settle Ximen Qianxue down, which was the most important thing for him. As for the grievances between him and the Black Evil Sect… he would have plenty of opportunities to figure it out in the future.

Pan Yixin laughed and said with hatred, “The green mountains won’t change, and the green water will flow forever. Ding Hao, we are enemies today. We will meet again soon, haha!” After that, he turned into a streamer and left with the extremely powerful people of the Black Evil Sect.

Now that they had a grudge against Ding Hao, there was no point for the rest of the disciples of the Black Evil Sect to stay there.

“Haha, I’m Song Que from the Blue Cloud Sect. Congratulations, Brother Ding. I’ve never seen such a magnificent feat as reclaiming the Heaven Sabre – Peerless Sword Tower. It proves that your potential is limitless, Brother Ding. You’ll definitely be one of the few people at the peak of martial arts who can stabilize the Northern Region in the future!” Song Que, the head of the Top 12 in Green Province, cupped one hand in the other before his chest and said with a smile.

His fat was trembling. He was so chubby like a meatball. His chin was submerged in his fat and his big ears were a little cute. When he smiled, he looked like an old friend, which made people feel familiar. His Qi cultivation was not very frightening, but no one dared to look down upon him.

“Brother Song, you’re flattering me.” No one would like to hit a person who was smiling at him, not to mention that Song Que openly stood on his side. Ding Hao humbly returned a salute and said with a smile, “Thank you for your help just now, Brother Song!”

Song Que laughed and said, “It’s just a few words of justice… I see that Brother Ding has something to do today, so I won’t disturb you. When you Brother Ding settles down, I will come over to visit you. I hope that I won’t be blocked at that time!”

Ding Hao felt that this Song Que was really a wonderful person. He immediately smiled and said, “If Brother Song comes, my humble house will be glorious. I will clean my house to treat you.”

Song Que laughed then left with Lin Tianyu and Wang Linghe.

He had achieved his goal.

Coming from a large sect like the Blue Cloud Sect—even if Ding Hao had reclaimed the Heaven Sabre – Peerless Sword Tower and achieved something that no one had ever done since the ancient times, and he was destined to become famous in the future, and might even be rewarded by the Holy Palace of Mysterious Frost—he did not need to speak to Ding Hao in a humble tone. What he needed to do was to make a good relationship with Ding Hao, and then the things in the future would be dealt with later.

Time flew by.

More and more people came to the Heaven Sabre – Peerless Sword Tower, and some young strong masters who came from the Fifth Heaven and the Sixth Heaven gathered around. The crowd was loud, and latecomers gradually understood what was going on there. They looked at Ding Hao standing on the roof with shock and envy.

Someone stood up and spoke loudly. He introduced himself and intended to recruit Ding Hao directly.

However, some people also congratulated Ding Hao for becoming the owner of the Heaven Sabre – Peerless Sword Tower, as if they were saying: “Rich man, let’s be friends”.

Ding Hao answered them one by one, cupping one hand in the other before his chest and said, “Everyone, I’m lucky to reclaim the Heaven Sabre – Peerless Sword Tower. There are still many trivial things that I haven’t figured out. I won’t entertain you today. When I’m settled down, I’ll definitely visit you one by one. Forgive me, please. Go back for the time being!”

The people below were all geniuses from various sects in the Northern Region. On such an occasion, it was not appropriate for them to say anything else. They said a few polite words to Ding Hao and left.

But the geniuses from the Demon Clan clearly had evil looks on their faces.

During these years, the relationship between the Human Clan and the Demon Clan became more and more tense. For the Demon Clan, Ding Hao’s sudden appearance was a big threat. They naturally did not have good feelings for Ding Hao. It was the hostility based on the hatred of the clan.

…

After the crowd dispersed, Ding Hao reappeared in the Heaven Sabre – Peerless Sword Tower.

“Well, everyone, please come in. Tian Neng, Li Ting, Ai Qing, you guys are on the first floor. I will tell you if I have anything that requires your help. If you want to go out and familiarize yourself with the situation in the Giant City of Highest Heaven, I will not stop you…” Ding Hao said. He reached out his hand and inserted a red light into every person’s body. He continued, “If you have this red light with you, you won’t be rejected by the Heaven Sabre – Peerless Sword Tower.”

After thinking for a while, Ding Hao stretched out a finger again.

A red light was inserted into Shen Buhui’s body.

“Brother Shen, if you are free, welcome to the Heaven Sabre – Peerless Sword Tower as a guest,” Ding Hao said with a smile.

Shen Buhui was overjoyed.

That was an unexpected surprise.

The reason why everyone liked to reclaim more difficult mansions was not only that the cultivation in these mansions was more effective, but also that the vital qi of heaven and earth was extremely rich with the help of the inscription formation, and the cultivation speed was doubled. What’s more, in the difficult mansions, there were treasures set up by Powerful Divines of the Human Clan and the Demon Clan, and even some combat skill secrets of ancient times. All of those things were incredible opportunities and wealth.

Otherwise, if all the mansions were the same, no one would spend so much effort to reclaim such a difficult courtyard.

There had to be a lot of wealth and fighting skills left in the holy land, like the Heaven Sabre – Peerless Sword Tower, that had never been reclaimed since ancient times. If one could take a glance at it, they would benefit. Ding Hao allowed people to enter the tower now, which meant that those people were allowed to practice the fighting skills in it. It was a great fortune and opportunity.

“Thank you, Brother Ding, thank you…” Shen Buhui’s excitement was beyond words.

Ding Hao smiled and said, “I should thank you. If it weren’t for Brother Shen patiently reminding and explaining all the way, I wouldn’t have found the Heaven Sabre – Peerless Sword Tower.”

After the talk, Ding Hao’s friends went into the Heaven Sabre – Peerless Sword Tower.

When Ding Hao came in for the first time, he was eager to light the star lamp, so he walked straight up the stairs to the top floor. He did not carefully observe the interior of the Heaven Sabre – Peerless Sword Tower. At that time, he could carefully observe it from inside.

The walls inside the building were still shining with a soft luster, like white jade. The overall feeling people got was that the building was extremely simple and unsophisticated. To everyone’s surprise, from the outside, both the Sabre Tower and the Sword Tower were not wide, but the interior space was extremely large. That was obviously done through a kind of spatial magical means.

The inner hall on the first floor of the Sword Tower was about 10 acres of land. Apart from the stairs leading to the second floor, there was nothing else.

However, on the jade wall, there were some characters and patterns.

Looking at it carefully, it was some extremely profound and powerful fighting skills, all of which were various kinds of sword techniques.

Ding Hao used his Divine Senses to roughly scan them. The levels of these sword techniques were probably above the Heaven Rank and below the Divine Rank. They had both offensive and defensive moves. They were basically ancient sword techniques from tens of thousands of years ago. Full of ancient meaning, they were completely different from the swordsmanship and sword techniques that were popular in the Land of Infinity currently. They were extremely powerful.

“Oh, my God…”

Ai Qing, who came from the Sky-Splitting Swordsmanship Sect, could not help exclaiming.
