Chapter 554 The Fake God City

After coming out of the Divine Herb Garden, the superpowers finally went their different ways.

The ruined city was so large that it was impossible to search all the places within a short period of time. What they could do was to try their luck.

No one knew where the so-called Sacred Fire Altar was.

Perhaps the superpowers had some incomplete clues in their hands, but none of them were willing to share those clues with others, just like it happened with the stone tablet map pieces.

The Human Clan forces such as Song Que and Bai Quanshui also parted ways with Ding Hao for the time being.

Ren Xiaoyao was enjoying his food. Chewing and devouring a roast beast leg in big bites, he was speaking vaguely, “Haha, Senior Brother Ding, it turns out that you have already achieved such a big name…”

The first thing the little fatty did after leaving the Divine Herb Garden was to get a beast leg from Ding Hao and roast it.

After finally tasting the meat, the little fatty couldn’t help but burst into tears.

If he weren’t afraid of pain, he would have cut off his own flesh and roasted it.

During the nearly half a year in the Divine Herb Garden, it was an opportunity that others envied and hated the little fatty for it, but it almost drove the man crazy. What he said before was not exaggerated at all. He ate magic herbs for every meal. Because of this, his farts smelled like medicine, and his feces were like long, green colored excretions.

Even Ding Hao had to admit that some super sects would fight for such long green feces if they were seen outside.The little fatty was a complete medicine man at the moment.

If he was put into the furnace and refined casually, even an extremely poor alchemist would be able to refine him into magical elixirs.

As a result, there was something weird with the way Evil Moon looked at the little fatty.

Ding Hao had to be on guard all the time for fear that the unreliable and gluttonous fat cat would suddenly become greedy and seize an opportunity to eat the little fatty.

At the moment, there was a massive amount of indescribable medicinal energy inside Ren Xiaoyao’s body.

The concentrated energy of the magic herbs turned into fat that piled up in his body.

Compared with half a year prior, his strength had improved by hundreds of times, and he had reached the Six-aperture Great Grandmaster realm. He had cultivated more effectively than Ding Hao in other places of the Sage Battlefield. If he could refine all that energy, he could even reach the peak of the Martial Emperor Realm in the future.

However, the little fatty’s strength depended entirely on taking medicine, so he couldn’t use it as he wished.

In terms of combat strength, the little fatty couldn’t even stand one of Ding Hao’s moves.

Hearing Ding Hao’s brief explanation of what had happened outside, Ren Xiaoyao got very excited.

He was happy for Ding Hao. He didn’t expect that he had achieved such a strong combat strength in such a short time and garnering a prominent reputation. No one dared to provoke him in the entire Sage Battlefield. No wonder he didn’t take the two Demon Emperors seriously at that time.

The little fatty was neither scheming nor was he competitive. He was innocent and had a good relationship with Ding Hao.

“Haha, that is to say, when we return to Snow Province in the future, we can do whatever we want?” Ren Xiaoyao said excitedly, “To be honest, it is really boring and not lively at all in the Sage Battlefield. Close it quickly… Oh, by the way, Senior Brother Ding, do you have any news about Lin Xin? What about the disciples of the other sects?”

“I also inquired about them, but unfortunately, I’ve got nothing. I met Li Muyun and Liang Feixue…” Ding Hao told him what he roughly knew.

“I’ve always felt that Li Muyun was a strange person. Liang Feixue was dragged down by him…” Ren Xiaoyao took huge bites of the beast meat and vaguely said, “Unfortunately, I always feel that without Li Muyun, Liang Feixue would have been able to make friends with you, Senior Brother Ding.”

What Ren Xiaoyao said hit Ding Hao.

The little fatty Ren Xiaoyao was indeed very lucky. Although he was not very reliable, his intuition was not negligible. The person was extremely lucky.

Even Ren Xiaoyao had such a feeling. Did Li Muyun have some hidden secrets?

Ji Yingqi was on Ding Hao’s back, completely depending on Ding Hao’s Qi shield to survive, otherwise, she would have been squeezed into a meat paste in an instant if her weak body was exposed in such a space.

The little girl curiously looked at Ren Xiaoyao.

She sensed a very familiar aura from the little fatty, but she couldn’t tell what it was.

As they talked, they arrived in front of a city wall.

It should be an exterior wall, made of yellow rocks. Some parts had collapsed, while others were still standing straight after thousands of years of wind and frost. Like an insurmountable barrier, it surrounded and protected the ruined city.

Cracks, like turtle patterns, covered the wall surface. Unlike the buildings that everyone had seen before, these walls finally showed some sort of symbols.

“It’s almost like the inscriptions of the Remote Gu Ages, but not quite…”

Observing them carefully, Ding Hao felt a little confused. He had never seen such symbols before.

Unfortunately, because of the cracks in the wall, those symbols were completely broken, and almost none of them were complete. Their original function had disappeared, and Ding Hao didn’t know what they were used for. However, he guessed that they should be some means to enhance the stone wall’s firmness and protection.

“Those are the Fake God’s characters.” The Sword Master’s voice echoed in his mind.

Ding Hao asked, “The characters of the Fake God?”

“Yes, it’s a kind of character. It should be some Powerful Divines in the Primal Ancient Gu Ages who stole the God’s characters and peeked into the mysteries of the God’s characters to create these characters. The characters had the power to communicate with the laws of heaven and earth. The primitive inscriptions in the Ancient Gu Ages and the various inscriptions spreading in the Land of Infinity have been all derived from that kind of Fake God’s characters.” The Sword Master said with confidence and composure. He obviously knew a little about the things that had happened in the Primal Ancient Gu and the Ancient Gu Ages.

In Ding Hao’s mind, a flash of lightning flashed and he said, “So, the inscriptions are also a kind of words in essence?”

“You are right. However, since the Late Ancient Gu Ages, fewer Powerful Divines mastered such inscriptions. The power tides of heaven and earth and the changes of the law set higher requirements for the inscriptions, not everyone could master those characters because of this. Only a few talented people were good at it, evolving as inscription masters with this heritage,” the Sword Master explained.

“So that’s how it is.”

A mystery in Ding Hao’s mind had been solved.

Inscriptions were actually a type of characters by themselves, but the Chinese characters he brought from his previous life on earth were also a kind of character that had evolved for more than 5,000 years. In essence, the two were the same.

That also explained why he was able to give free play to the Chinese inscriptions.

Then Ding Hao thought of something else and then he asked, “Since the Fake God’s characters in the Primal Ancient Gu Ages appeared on the city wall, are the ruins a vestige from those times?”

According to the record of the ages in the Land of Infinity, one hundred thousand years was one Gu. One hundred thousand years from that time was the Late Ancient Gu Ages; another one hundred thousand years were the Middle Ancient Gu Ages; a hundred thousand years after the Middle Ancient Gu Ages was the Ancient Gu Ages; one hundred thousand years from the Ancient Gu Ages was the Remote Ancient Gu Ages, and another hundred thousand years from the Remote Ancient Gu Ages the Primal Ancient Gu Ages. That was to say, the battlefield was probably the ruins from five hundred thousand years prior. That era was a bit scary.

“That’s not necessarily true. Even in the Ancient Gu Ages and the Middle Ancient Gu Ages, some Powerful Divines had mastered the Fake God’s characters,” The Saber Master suddenly cut in.

Ding Hao nodded and suddenly concentrated power on his toes.

With a boom, he jumped up to a height of a hundred meters and landed on the city wall.

“Hey, Senior Brother Ding, wait for me…” The little fatty Ren Xiaoyao did not have such strong physical strength as Ding Hao. He could only climb up little by little like a fat monkey along the cracks in the wall.

Standing on the city wall, Ding Hao looked inside and he was shocked.

Ren Xiaoyao was also staring blankly at the scene inside the city wall, wiping his eyes.

Inside the city wall, it was full of densely packed buildings. That was definitely the most terrifying scene in the world for those who had an intense phobia. The distance between the buildings was only three or four meters, like narrow paths leading to countless unknown places. The tall buildings were all square and arranged into many strange patterns. At first glance, it was simply a terrible maze.

Although most parts of the city had already been abandoned and collapsed, people could vaguely think of the prosperity of the city in the past.

On the earth in Ding Hao’s previous life, he had seen bird’s eye maps of many grand modern cities. The traffic was shocking. However, compared with the ruined city before him, the previous cities were like remote mountain villages in the northwest and there the first international metropolis in the world was founded. They were inferior to the ruined city.

“It… it is the place where the god lives, isn’t it?”

Ren Xiaoyao didn’t know how to describe the shock in his heart.

With the city wall of more than a hundred meters high under his feet as a boundary, the scattered buildings outside looked grand and majestic. Ding Hao and the others once sighed with emotion, but compared with the square high-rise buildings inside, which were as dense as clouds, they weren’t even worth seeing.

“This… how can we find the Sacred Fire Altar?”

As the main person without a sense of direction in the world, Ding Hao’s scalp suddenly tingled.

“So many buildings and rooms. When can I finish searching them one by one?” Evil Moon was worried. He was still reveling in dreams of treasure hunting.

“Why not find a place to have a good rest and a big meal? Anyway, the Sage Battlefield will be closed in ten days or so, so why do we need to come here to look for trouble? If we get lost and end up trapped inside, it will be terrible…” Ren Xiaoyao suggested weakly. He had been trapped in the Divine Herb Garden for half a year; he was indeed a little scared.

Ding Hao shook his head slowly.

“Let’s go!”

With Ji Yingqi on his back, he jumped into the maze-like giant city.

Ren Xiaoyao had to keep up with him with a sad face.

Right at that moment, whether in the Demon Clan or in the Human Clan, countless people were staring at him.

Nobody believed that he didn’t get anything good while had stayed in the Divine Herb Garden for half a year. He must have countless rare magic treasures and medicines with him. Catching the little fatty would make them a fortune that could even provoke the envy of the super sects in the Northern Region. If he didn’t follow Ding Hao, he would be caught and sent into the furnace for refining within a short period of time.
