Chapter 1128: Reentering the Southern Wilderness
Chapter 1128 Reentering the Southern Wilderness
The situation in the Southern Wilderness, however, was relatively chaotic.
Heaven Sect, the former number one force in the Southern Wilderness, had restrained themselves a lot during this period. Outsiders could not know what had happened, but some other forces were ready to take action. Many of the forces that had been suppressed by Heaven Sect felt that the opportunity had come and began to expand. In troubled times, no one was willing to be a coward. It was just like the saying - nothing ventured, nothing gained.
Fortunately, the forces of the Sea Clan from the Land of Divine Grace suddenly changed their previous style and stopped attacking aggressively. Only the Ceroman Clan was still tyrannical and continued to expand its territory.
The most distant Eastern Border had become the world of the Beast Clan. It was said that an ape and a pig were extremely powerful. They had suppressed the Human Clan and the Demon Clan in the Eastern Border and were almost unifying that ancient area. At the same time, the behemoth forces from the Land of Divine Grace had also descended to the Eastern Border. The place was probably divided into two major forces, and they were constantly attacking each other.
Ding Hao's eyebrows were slightly wrinkled.
Judging from the letter, except for the Northern Region, there were wars to some extent in the other four regions, which had formed chaotic dividing forces. Things had been established, and it was difficult to change the situation. Although the temporary distribution of forces seemed to make the situation less difficult than before, Ding Hao knew that once these forces collided with each other, the massacre would be even more terrifying than that in the chaotic era.
The letter was reduced to ashes between his fingers.
Ding Hao pondered for a moment. He knew that he needed to go to the Southern Wilderness again.
Among the major regions, the situation in the Southern Wilderness was the most unstable. Although the Sea Clan in the Seven Seas had temporarily laid low, which might have something to do with the trip of Li Yiruo, the dolphin Adorable, and the others to the Seven Seas, the Ceroman Clan was a huge hidden danger. When Ding Hao was in the Land of Divine Grace, he had seen this clan. It was a cruel, bloodthirsty, and crazy clan. If they continued to stay in the Southern Wilderness, the Heaven Sect would not have a chance to fight against them with its current weak strength. In the end, the Southern Wilderness would become a sea of blood.
"As for the other major regions...
...
"I'll see what happens after I deal with the Southern Wilderness."
Thinking of this, Ding Hao had made up his mind.
He scratched Evil Moon's neck and belly and said with a smile, "Go and get prepared. Leave the communication matters to Tianyi and come with me on a long journey."
The Demon King snored happily and said with satisfaction, "Human Pet, since you know things better, I'll go with you. But let me make it clear first. If there's any delicious food like divine souls this time, you must leave them to me first. Otherwise, I'll fall out with you."
Ding Hao smiled and agreed. The Fat Cat then flapped its wings, turned into flowing light, and disappeared into the horizon.
Ding Hao left the Sword-hidden Peak. As soon as he arrived at the Sect Leader Main Hall, his daughter Ding Tianshuang rushed over and sat on his neck like a spoiled child.
This martial arts giant, who was invincible in the Northern Region, was no different from an ordinary father in front of his daughter. Since he got married, Ding Hao had been working hard, but Li Yiruo, Xie Jieyu, and Ximen Qianxue still hadn't gotten pregnant. Therefore, Ding Tianshuang really became the apple of his eye and a treasure in everyone's heart.
"Daddy, I've broken through the Primordial Realm and can fly now." Ding Tianshuang excitedly reported the news. She rubbed Ding Hao's cheek with her delicate little face and kissed him twice.
Ding Hao laughed loudly and said, "Tianshuang, you're truly amazing."
Ding Tianshuang did not inherit Li Lan's subtle scheming and wisdom. Although she could be regarded as a little genius in terms of martial arts talent, she was still far from being a match for Ding Hao. However, with Ding Hao's formidable help, the little girl had long gotten all kinds of divine medicines, magical elixirs, and so on to remold herself. Moreover, Ding Hao had also left her with an immortal medicine catalyst. Even if Ding Tianshuang could not become a supreme expert in the future, it would not be a big problem for her to reach the God Realm.
Ding Hao was almost doting on this daughter.
...
"Master, I've also reached the Primordial Realm." Ren Woxing, the little chubby guy, ran over with a showy smile.
Ding Tianshuang and Ren Woxing were less than seven years old. It was absolutely record-breaking for them to enter the Primordial Realm at this age. When Ding Hao was seven years old, he was still a child who picked up garbage in the garbage dump of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect all day long. He couldn't even feel the Qi back then.
Ding Hao checked the foundation of the two children's cultivation.
On the other side, Nalan Youxia was eating a drumstick with a smile and basking in the sun. Beside him was an ugly bald man, who was serving him respectfully.
The bald man was Wang Yong, who was taken as a Human Pet by Evil Moon. He had been a bandit in Snow Dragon Mountain back then. Later, Ding Hao killed the head of the bandits in Snow Dragon Mountain, and almost all of his men were killed. Wang Yong was lucky. Although he was almost eaten by Evil Moon, it was this opportunity that made him a member of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect by accident. He actually lived comfortably until now.
Later, the Demon King had better taste, and it felt that taking in a Human Pet with an ugly appearance and low strength like Wang Yong was really degrading, so it abandoned him without any hesitation. Wang Yong's aptitude was not good, and his cultivation speed was slow, but considering that he used to be the Demon King's man, everyone had never treated him badly. Later, silly Nalan Youxia seemed to get along well with this bald man, so Wang Yong became Nalan Youxia's special servant, in charge of Nalan Youxia's diet and travel.
One was stupid and the other was ugly, and they almost became a fascinating pair in the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect.
Fortunately, except for Ding Hao, no one knew the real power of Nalan Youxia. Otherwise, the whole Swordsmanship-seeking Sect would have treated this silly boy as a treasure, and the bald man would lose his job.
Suddenly, the ground began to shake.
A thunderous roar was heard, and three big heads poked out from behind the Sect Leader Main Hall.
The Three-headed Heavenly Hound, Blackie, was now hundreds of meters tall. No matter where it stood, it looked like a black mountain. Its three black huge heads looked even more majestic and ferocious. Even Ding Hao could not figure out how it would develop. At least, the masters at the peak of the Martial Sage Realm and the Demon Saint Realm were no match for it.
...
In the early years, the Saber Master identified it as a three-headed puppy with dysplasia. But now, it seemed to have grown faster than its mother.
Wang Juefeng, the cynical man, had a deep affection for Blackie. He transferred all his grievances that had been ignored by the Demon King, Evil Moon, to Blackie. He was only one step away from giving Blackie the title of Divine Beast Protector of the sect. Roundie and Squarie, who didn't speak, chose to sit on Blackie's heads individually with their legs crossed and their eyes closed. It was unknown what cultivation methods they were practicing. These two little Taoist children from Divine Design Valley had an outstanding status in the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect.
Ding Hao checked Tianshuang and Ren Woxing's homework and ate a roast chicken with the silly boy Nalan Youxia. During this period, he communicated with Nalan Chu.
For most of the time, Nalan Chu was hidden in Nalan Youxia's sea of consciousness and did not occupy his body. Ding Hao had special pity and feelings for this disciple, so he taught her the Mysterious Fighting Method. In particular, the Mind Essential had a special effect on Nalan Chu, which could strengthen her soul.
Except for Ding Hao, no one else knew the fact that Nalan Youxia was a human-shaped Immortal Artifact.
Even Ding Hao himself did not intend to use the power of the Immortal Artifact. On the one hand, with his current strength, he no longer needed to use the power of Immortal Tao. On the other hand, once the Immortal Artifact was used, it would consume Nalan Youxia's life span, which would be unacceptable to Ding Hao.
Ding Hao chatted with the juniors at the gate of the Sect Leader Main Hall for a while and then got up to leave.
During this period, Li Lan was in charge of the affairs of the sect by the Immortal Gate of Fortune in the Land of Divine Grace. The 200 nominal disciples the sect had accepted before had also been sent to the Land of Divine Grace. The power of the rules in that environment was clearer, and the Spiritual Qi was more abundant, which was conducive to their cultivation. Before that, Ding Hao had personally investigated everyone's talent and attributes one-on-one. He had set up a special cultivation plan for them and selected cultivation methods and resources for each one of them, so as to ensure that they could be strengthened in the shortest time.
Others could only envy greatly that those teenagers would get exclusive plans of cultivation from Ding Hao, a supreme master of martial arts. After all, this was a treatment that many core disciples of top sects could not get. There were countless talented, enthusiastic, and loyal young people in the world begging to be Ding Hao's servants.
Of course, this was Ding Hao's investment in the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect's future and later stages.
These youths wouldn't come in handy in the short-term situation.
...
During the following days, Ding Hao discussed with the higher-ups of the sect, including Wang Juefeng, Ren Xiaoyao, and Zhang Fan, and decided on all the major events of the sect during this period and assigned tasks to each of them. After everything was arranged, Ding Hao embarked on the journey to the South Wilderness.
This time, he still went on a secret trip.
Except for Wang Juefeng and his companions, no one knew that Ding Hao had left the Northern Region.
...
In just a dozen or so days, Heaven Island was already within reach.
"Meow!"
Evil Moon let out a long cry, flapping its wings and shuttling through the void.
With the Demon King flying at full speed, Ding Hao's speed was comparable to some transmission space gates. Flying in a straight line like a stream of light, Ding Hao naturally took much less time than the last time he came to the Southern Wilderness. Originally, it was impossible for him to drive the Demon King like this, but since this guy had a mental problem and imagined that it was a giant eagle, he got to talk it down into giving him a manned flight, which was one of the huge eagles' basic functions.
Ding Hao and Ximen Qianxue sat on the back of the Demon King, leisurely and carefree.
Ximen Qianxue was invited by Ding Hao to go with him right before leaving. On the one hand, after the wedding, among the four beautiful wives, Ding Hao and the female alchemist spent very little time alone. He couldn't help feeling a bit sorry about it. They could take the opportunity to enjoy some time alone. On the other hand, Ximen Qianxue had never been to the Southern Wilderness. As a top alchemist, it was also very important for her to travel around the Southern Wilderness and get familiar with all kinds of herbs.
