Chapter 1210: Chapter 15 Traveling All Over the World
Chapter 15 Traveling All Over the World
In the vast primeval forest, under the endless stretch of green hills and blue sky and white clouds, birds flew and chirped from time to time.
The forest was the Beast Clan's paradise.
The north was the Beast Clan's homeland.
The Beast Clan in the north no longer consisted of only the beasts in the Land of Divine Grace. Since the merger of the two continents, the Beast Clan in the Land of Divine Grace and the Demon Clan in the Land of Infinity gradually merged and produced a new clan with the advantage of the two major clans.
Because of the geographical location and population distribution, the beasts mainly stayed in the north, ruled over by the Great Ape King. As for the south, most of the demons lived there and were led by Wen Duoqing.
In this way, the situation of the Southern Demon Clan and the Northern Demon Clan was formed. Comparatively speaking, the bloodline of the Beast Clan seemed to be purer, and the Demon Clan had more insights about postnatal cultivation. Both sides would communicate frequently and promote each other.
Ding Hao appeared in the Beast Clan in the north and came to find his two friends.
"I was wondering who it was. It turns out that you're here!"
Before seeing the man, Ding Hao heard his voice first.
Powerful sound waves suddenly spread from deep within the dense forest. All the bird and beast experts within a five-hundred-kilometer radius were startled as they immediately hid far away.
The moment the sound stopped, a burly red figure with a golden long stick in his hand slowly walked out of the mountains.
The man's red hair fluttered, like a burning flame. With each step, he shook heaven and earth, and the mountains and rivers were almost shattered.
This man was the Undefeated War God of the Beast Clan, the Great Ape King.
"Haha, Brother Ape, your strength has improved again. You have reached the Upper Realm of the True Immortal. Congratulations!" Ding Hao congratulated.
The Great Ape King had been in secluded cultivation to comprehend the Immortal Tao, and today just happened to be the day he ended his cultivation.
"Hahahaha! Even if I were to enter secluded cultivation for another thousand years, I still wouldn't be able to compare to you!" The Great Ape King laughed heartily.
Ding Hao smiled and said nothing.
Before they could say a few words, another sound wave came.
"Hahaha, Monkey, you finally come out of seclusion. Let's fight again. You are destined to be my stepping stone to surpass Ding Hao!"
This voice was extremely familiar to the nearby beasts. That was because every time these two voices sounded at the same time, it meant that the nearby beasts would all suffer.
Behind the green mountains, a figure flashed. It was Zhu Ganglie, the pig-headed man with a human body and the Nine-Toothed Rake on his shoulder.
As soon as Pig Immortal sensed that the Great Ape King had come out of seclusion, he hurried over.
They sparred with each other every ten years. Although Zhu Ganglie had always thought that the Great Ape King's stick skills were too simple, in the entire continent, the Great Ape King was the only one who was willing to fight with him and had the same strength as him.
Once they fought, it would be a disaster for the nearby beasts.
Although the battlefield was above the Ninth Heaven, the aftermath of the battle between the masters in the Celestial Realm was still too great.
As soon as Pig Immortal arrived, he realized that something was wrong. There was another person here. He took a closer look.
"Ah, Ding Hao! Saber and Sword Addict! You are here too..." Pig Immortal looked surprised.
Immediately, his expression changed. He looked at the Great Ape King seriously and said earnestly, "Ahem, ahem, Great Monkey, I'll let you go today. Since the Saber and Sword Addict is here, you can accompany him first. I'll go now. You guys talk."
The pig was afraid that he would be caught and beaten by Ding Hao. Over the years, he had competed with Ding Hao, but every time he would be crushed miserably. He was really scared. Ding Hao's strength was too strong. It was simply torture to compete with him without any pleasure.
The Great Ape King was speechless.
After Pig Immortal got beaten by the Great Ape King, the two of them finally quieted down.
These two peerless geniuses of the Beast Clan were currently ruling over the north, guarding the Karmic Luck of the entire Beast Clan so that the clan could live on.
Ding Hao could finally sit down and chat with his two old friends.
This time, their gathering was still mainly about Ding Hao's lecture on the Tao. The Great Ape King and the Pig Immortal had gained a lot.
In addition to talking about martial arts, Ding Hao talked to the two of them about a lot about the past. He also turned into an ordinary beastman and wandered freely in the territory of the Beast Clan. Ding Hao did not come and go in a hurry as before. He spent a lot of time understanding the local customs of the Beast Clan. It was as if he had really turned into an ordinary beastman.
When Ding Hao was about to leave, the two proud peerless geniuses of the Beast Clan respectfully bowed to him.
The Great Ape King and Pig Immortal could gain a lot by listening to Ding Hao's lecture on the Tao than cultivating for hundreds of years.
"Ding Hao is acting a little abnormal. He seems to be hesitating about something." The Great Ape King seemed to be deep in thought.
"There aren't many people and things in the world that can make him hesitate," said Pig Immortal with a grave expression.
"The world is about to change again." The Great Ape King took step after step into the void, disappearing into the distance.
...
Later, Ding Hao went to find Feng Ning, Evil Sword Immortal, who had already reached the acme of perfection in swordsmanship.
Feng Ning's whereabouts had been erratic all these years. There had been many rumors about him. It was said that one day, a man with purple hair and silver eyes appeared in different places on the continent, holding a long sword.
Over the years, Feng Ning had been looking for new rising sword masters to compete with. He had issued many challenge letters and received many at the same time, so it was not surprising for him to go to many sword battles in a day.
So far, Feng Ning had not been defeated.
And those swordsmanship masters who had fought Feng Ning were all grateful to him because, after every fight, Feng Ning would remind the other party of their shortcomings so that they could make improvements.
Many people had been able to break through the bottlenecks that had troubled them for many years after their fight with Feng Ning.
When someone asked him when he would challenge Ding Hao, he just said lightly, "It is not the right time yet."
After Feng Ning's swordsmanship was recognized by the continent, he and Fang Tianyi became the two top swordsmen on par, second to only Ding Hao.
On this continent, Ding Hao was the only one who could easily find Feng Ning.
When they met, they only talked about the Tao of the Sword, not anything else.
Feng Ning's unique understanding of swordsmanship surprised Ding Hao. The successor of the Evil Sword had reached the realm of the unity of heaven, earth, and human.
Even though the two didn't start an unprecedented battle in swordsmanship, merely the comprehension of each other's Sword Tao had allowed both of them to obtain some gains.
If someone was lucky enough to hear their conversation and sort it out into a book, that book would definitely become the Heaven Path continent's greatest swordsmanship tome.
...
Ding Hao and Feng Ning did leave something behind. In a cave on a snow-capped peak where they talked, they left two sword marks on the stone walls of the cave as a gift for future generations when they parted.
Subsequently, Ding Hao disappeared from this unknown snow peak at the same time.
Looking at Ding Hao's disappearing shadow, Feng Ning thought to himself. "Although you're here to talk about swordsmanship, your mind is obviously not on the sword. What exactly makes you feel troubled?"
...
Ding Hao also went to find Monk Wuwo, who used to be Liang Feixue, the second brother of the Honorable Alliance of Seven.
At the moment, Liang Feixue was a complete Buddhist. Whether in terms of behavior or manner, he had the bearing of a supreme Buddha. In this respect, he was somewhat similar to Golden Cicada, the Lord Buddha of the Western Desert.
After the two discussed about meditation and cultivation methods, Ding Hao soon left.
Liang Feixue seemed to have sensed some clues, but he didn't say it.
When they parted, he only said to Ding Hao, "Almsgiver Ding, the living of the common people in the world depends on your decision. I hope you can consider it thoroughly!"
Ding Hao didn't answer and left quietly.
...
...
Right now, on Heaven Island, half of the residents were from the Human Clan, and the other half was from the Demon Clan, but almost all of them seemed to be human beings.
Since the integration of the Heaven Path continent, the tides between heaven and earth had returned to normal, and the cultivation of the Demon Clan had reached a rapid level. Many demons could reach the Demon Prince and Demon King levels in a very short time and then transform into human beings.
It was a common desire for the demon of the Southern Wilderness to evolve into human beings.
This was because their leader, Wen Duoqing, was a demon who had transformed into a human being and married a human expert.
Over the years, with the efforts of Ding Ke'er and Wen Duoqing, the Human Clan and the Demon Clan in the Southern Wilderness had reached an unprecedented state of harmony, and the estrangement between the two clans had completely disappeared from Heaven Island.
"Aha, Brother Ding, you're here!"
A handsome young man, with a folding fan in his hand and a graceful bearing, met Ding Hao as soon as he arrived at Heaven Island.
The man was Wen Duoqing, the top genius of the Demon Clan.
"Childe Wen!" Ding Hao cupped his hands and smiled.
"Brother Ding, don't be a stranger. Ke'er and I have been married for so many years, but you have never called me brother-in-law. Do you dislike me?" Wen Duoqing deliberately made things difficult for Ding Hao.
"Haha, I haven't changed the way I address you for so many years. I don't think you would mind about how I call you. In my impression, you don't look like a stingy person," Ding Hao replied.
"You deserve to be the man who is more important than me to Ke'er! Let's go. You haven't been here for so long, and Ke'er misses you so much. Hey, where are my exceedingly beautiful sisters-in-law?" Wen Duoqing turned to look at Ding Hao with a sly look. "Could it be... that you've come out to have some fun?"
Ding Hao was speechless.
Wen Duoqing often went to Earth with Ding Ke'er. Under the dual effects of his nature and the Earth's civilization, he had become even more eccentric. Every time he saw Ding Hao, he had to try his best to tease him.
On Earth, not only did Wen Duoqing's personality have changed a little, but also his hobbies had changed.
Ever since he came to Earth, he had been completely obsessed with the buildings there.
Back on the Heaven Path continent, he was obsessed with architectural design. He thoroughly mastered the information he collected from Earth in a very short time, integrated part of the concept of the Demon Clan and the Human Clan, and began to carry out large-scale construction on Heaven Island.
He was the top genius of the Demon Clan, and surprisingly, he had a very high level of professional attainments in architectural design. What he did to improve Heaven Island had even intrigued the Immortal Phoenix Palace in Snow Province of the Northern Region. The Great Phoenix Saint Fire had sent people over many times to exchange pointers.
In the past hundred years, Heaven Island had been transformed into a beautiful sea garden by Wen Duoqing.
According to Ding Hao's experience, since Heaven Island was taken over by Wen Duoqing and his wife, the island's appearance would always change a lot every time he came here.
This time it was strange that Ding Hao did not notice any big changes when he just arrived at the periphery of the island. When Ding Hao came to the interior of the island, a burst of fragrance instantly came to his nose, and what he saw was a large sea of flowers.
There were flowers everywhere on the ground, all the houses, and even the branches of every tree.
Ding Hao instantly realized why Wen Duoqing insisted on pulling him into the island slowly from outside the island. It turned out that he wanted Ding Hao to appreciate his unparalleled masterpiece.
