Supreme Emperor of Swords

Chapter 544 Appearing One after Another

“It’s you?” Ding Hao was a little surprised.

This was because the person who appeared on the dark corridor was not a supreme expert like Song Que or Demon Royal, Bu Tianjue, of the two clans.

He was a person Ding Hao would never think of.

It turned out to be Mu Tianyang, the Prodigy of the Tranquility Academy.

Ding Hao’s fated opponent was in an extremely awkward position. He was badly wounded and he had a pale face. Obviously, he had experienced a hard battle. His gray eyebrows and gray hair were messy, but his eyes were still very sharp when he appeared in the dark corridor. After checking the surrounding environment, he breathed a sigh of relief.

However, his eyes fixed on something immediately.

Because he had recognized Ding Hao.

At this moment, the two pairs of eyes glared at each other, causing invisible sparks of tension in the air.

In the end, these two looked away from each other and didn’t exchange a word.

Mu Tianyang sat on the ground and began to regulate his Qi. He took every minute and second to restore his strength and heal the wounds on his body. He finally came out of the illusion. At the critical moment, he needed to adjust and prepare to enter the mysterious ruins.

Mu Tianyang was not worried that Ding Hao would take the opportunity to launch a sneak attack.

Because he knew Ding Hao’s character and pride well.

As an expert with dignity and pride, Ding Hao would not allow himself to take advantage of others.

It was true that Ding Hao had no intention to make a move.

He just felt a little curious.

He remembered that there was no trace of Mu Tianyang in the Human Clan before. “Why did he suddenly appear here at this time? Was he hiding all this time, or was he following the group and entered the illusion?”

Everything was possible.

Ding Hao suddenly realized that maybe he had overlooked something.

He had a hunch that Mu Tianyang was definitely not the only person who would show up in this dark corridor.

“Perhaps there were many old acquaintances hiding in the dark.”

“I was too dazzling before, while these old acquaintances didn’t appear for some reason. They hid in the dark quietly, but that doesn’t mean that they weren’t there.”

At the same time, Ding Hao felt that the situation was a bit awe-inspiring.

“Song Que, Bai Quanshui, Demon Royal Bu Tianjue, Demon Royal of the Ancient Demon Clan of Silver Moon, and other top experts had yet to come out of the illusion, but Mu Tianyang has already appeared. Does this mean that the prodigy of the Tranquility Academy surpasses those experts in strength and potential?”

Ding Hao quietly released his Divine Senses and observed secretly.

Mu Tianyang’s Qi cultivation was about at the Six-apertured Great Grandmaster realm.

Compared with the other geniuses from the two clans who had reached this section of the Ancient Road, he wasn’t outstanding. His strength could even be considered below average. However, Ding Hao vaguely felt that there seemed to be another hidden force in Mu Tianyang’s body. It was unfathomable and absolutely horrendous.

“He also has some kind of secret.”

Ding Hao would not dare to underestimate this opponent.

After a while, a ray of light flashed in the dark corridor, and a burly figure appeared. Demon Aura was billowing, indicating that this was an expert of the Demon Clan.

This person was tall but not heavy. He was well-built with long green hair spreading over his shoulders like a waterfall. His forehead was inlaid with a green jade, as if he had been born with it. He had clean-cut good looks with thin lips, a hooked nose, sharp eyes, and eyebrows raised upward. He looked majestic.

“Well? A human has come out…” The eyes of the young man from the Demon Clan fell on Mu Tianyang. He was stunned for a moment and said in surprise, “Mu Tianyang? I didn’t expect that such a secretive rat like you would come out before me. It seems that you are seriously injured!”

Obviously, this demon expert knew Mu Tianyang.

There was no serious injury on his body, but he was out of breath. The demon was weak, but he was in a better condition than Mu Tianyang. As his eyes swept over Mu Tianyang, a trace of killing intent burst out of this demon expert’s eyes. He sneered and said, “In the past, you acted outrageously in Snow Province. I didn’t expect that you would end up like this. If I kill you now, no one will know, haha…”

A sneer appeared at the corner of Mu Tianyang’s mouth.

He continued to use his magic skills wholeheartedly to heal his injuries and did not put this expert of the Demon Race in his eyes.

“Hey hey, go to hell…” The young man’s right hand turned into a dragon claw. When he was about to make an attack, he suddenly noticed something and suddenly turned his head. He saw Ding Hao quietly sitting cross-legged at the end of the corridor in the distance.

“Huh? That is… Ding Hao?” His pupils narrowed; he obviously knew him. He cursed in a low voice and killing intent surged all over his body. He appeared to have thought of something, knowing that Ding Hao would definitely stop him this time, so he could only slowly withdraw his hands and no longer target Mu Tianyang.

The young demon was obviously very afraid of Ding Hao. He glared at him, then he sat cross-legged in another corner of the dark corridor to adjust his status with the rolling green Demon Aura around him.

It took a while for Ding Hao to figure out the identity of this demon.

It turned out that he was Sheng Huangzi, the only son of Green Flood Dragon King of Heaven Hall, which was the second largest force in Snow Province. Ding Hao remembered that before entering Sage Battlefield, he had glanced at this demon genius who was ranked second on the List of Talents of Snow Province. However, Ding Hao didn’t pay much attention to him at that time. He didn’t expect that Sheng Huangzi would also appear there.

“Sheng Huangzi is quite persevering. He came all the way to the last part of the ancient westbound road without flashing his identity. He came out of the illusion this quickly; he’s also a rarely seen genius. Unexpectedly, I met him again.”

“According to the information collected by the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, Sheng Huangzi is a sanctimonious, ruthless, and cunning opponent. He’s an unscrupulous demon expert who would do anything to achieve his goals. I must pay close attention to him.”

“At that time, I estimated that his strength was still at the realm of Superficial Demon Prince, which is equivalent to that of a human Great Grandmaster.”

However, Ding Hao secretly observed and concluded that he had already entered the realm of Demon King by then. With Ding Hao’s vision, he couldn’t figure out his exact level.

“It seems that Sheng Huangzi’s strength progressed again after entering the Sage Battlefield.”

“He can’t be underestimated, since he got out of the illusion before Demon Royal Bu Tianjue and the Demon Royal of the Ancient Demon Clan of Silver Moon.”

Thinking of this, Ding Hao couldn’t help laughing in his heart.

“Unexpectedly, the first three people who walked out of the illusion came from Snow Province, the smallest and the most remote and desolate among the countless provinces in the Northern Region. It’s recognized as a wasteland of martial arts where rarely any experts are found. This time, it actually surpassed the other major provinces and super sects. It was the black horse.”

The thought surprised him. “Even if it was a small probability, there’s a certain reason behind it.”

“Mu Tianyang and Sheng Huangzi, I have to watch for them in the future.”

In the next moment—

“Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!”

Three rays of light flickered.

In the dark corridor, three more appeared.

One of them was fat and stout, which made him look very funny. If it wasn’t the fat Song Que, then who else would it be?

“Ah ha, ha, what the f*ck. I’m finally out… Eh? I didn’t expect that you two little monsters wouldn’t lag too far behind!” Typically, Song Que burst out laughing. These two who showed up behind him were none other than Demon Royal Bu Tianjue and Demon Royal of the Ancient Demon Clan of Silver Moon.

After being teased by the fat man, the two Demon Royals both snorted and said nothing.

The two of them looked around and could not help but feel surprised.

They didn’t expect that someone would come out in advance. It was all right for Ding Hao to come out since he was one of the most powerful people on this battlefield and could not be seen through. However, the young man with gray hair and gray eyebrows and the muscular and good shaped young demon surprised them. “Where did these two guys come from? How could they come out before us?”

“Ah ha, ha, Brother Ding, you really came out…” Song Que’s face lit up when he saw Ding Hao. He walked over in a flash.

“Brother Song.” Ding Hao patted the fat man’s shoulder.

While speaking, there were flashes of white light shining in the dark corridor.

Bai Quanshui appeared; he was a sword practitioner of Extermination Swordsmanship Sect.

‘Many Faces’ Su Xiaoxiao appeared.

The mysterious woman with flames appeared.

The demon experts who had managed to reclaim the Sky Holding Ancient Villa appeared.

Lin Tianyu appeared.

Wang Linghe appeared…

The experts from both clans were transported out of the white light one after another.

Everyone’s state was different. Some were seriously injured, while others were fine. They immediately stood with a defensive posture when they arrived. They began to relax only after checking the environment clearly. Then they formed into two different camps: the Human Clan and the Demon Clan, each occupying one side of the corridor.

Ding Hao casually asked several superiors of the Human Clan, only to find that the illusions they had experienced were different from what he experienced. They didn’t face their own illusions, but some other strange opponents.

That did made Ding Hao feel more confused due to the weirdness of the last section of the Ancient Road.

Rays of light flashed constantly in the following day as experts from both clans appeared one after another.

Ding Hao keenly noticed that some superiors of the two clans—who had not appeared at the end of the tenth section of the Ancient Road before—showed up in the crowd at this time.

“Hm?” Suddenly Ding Hao’s eyes were riveted on something.

When another white light appeared, two figures staggered out.

These two people were very familiar to Ding Hao. They were actually Li Muyun and Liang Feixue, which was a shocking and surprising sight for Ding Hao. There had been no news about them since these two people entered the Sage Battlefield. They didn’t appear in the giant city of the Highest Heaven, but just then they…

It was a miracle that they were able to make it all the way there.
