“In addition to these young masters, those giants who have established their reputations for a long time also have a chance.”

In the illusion mirror, there were dozens of other masters from all over the world, who were basically the superiors of the older generation in the Sage Realm. Although their strength was restricted in every battle, they were always able to easily win final victory relying on their rich experience in fighting and their exquisite skills in using their power.

“There are only twenty candidates that can enter the divine temple finally. When the time comes, a true cruel battle will begin… Whoever can awaken those three will have to depend on their own fate and luck!”

Two light shadows discussed for a while and finally reached an agreement.

In the next day, Ding Hao fought three more battles in a row.

Three life-or-death battles.

In the end, Ding Hao had to use the power of the devil saber and managed to hold on until the last minute.

“[Holy Battlefield] It is over. The loser shall retreat, and the winner shall recover and prepare himself for entering the final divine temple.”

That majestic and ice-cold voice once again sounded in the sky.

Ding Hao leaned on his devil saber and stood there with difficulty, gasping for breath. When he heard this, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. “Get ready for entering the final divine temple? Does that mean that I no longer have to fight like slaves fighting against wild animals in the arena?”

After ten consecutive matches, Ding Hao felt that every bit of strength in his body was about to be depleted.

Fortunately, he had gained14 pieces of Jade in Stone, which were his greatest harvest.

His body was now covered with wounds and scars.

“How much time for recovery can I get this time?” Ding Hao shouted at the sky.

He wanted to try to communicate with the cold and noble voice and get more information. If he did not guess wrong, he was not the only one that could enter the final divine temple. He was afraid that there would be more powerful enemies waiting for him.

Silence.

After a moment of silence, the cold and noble voice sounded once again. “Three days.”

“Three days?” Ding Hao was overjoyed. He didn’t expect that he would really get a response. He immediately asked, “Well… Can you tell me who you are? Are you dominating everything here?”

There was no reply this time.

It seemed that this voice was not willing to answer all the questions.

Ding Hao thought for a while and stopped asking. He said a few words to the Devil King—Evil Moon, and the black puppy. He set up some inscription formations around him for breath holding and isolation from the peeping. Then he began to practice and restore his strength.

About two hours later, Ding Hao opened his eyes, and all the wounds and scars on his body disappeared.

The Qi that had been consumed before gradually recovered and reached a full level.

He took out 14 pieces of Jade in Stone from his storage space.

These pieces of Jade in Stone were all ordinary in physical appearance. Eight of them were glimmering with the same luster and giving off the same aura, and they seemed to be of the same kind. For Ding Hao, he could pick only one of them and integrate it into his body.

It meant that among the 14 pieces of Jade in Stone, only six pieces could be integrated into his body.

Considering that he would encounter more formidable enemies when he entered the final divine temple, Ding Hao decided to integrate these pieces of Jade in Stone into his body to enhance his strength and provide an extra means of life saving.

However, although he had integrated the Jade in Stone twice before, Ding Hao did not dare to be too careless. He carefully selected a smallest piece of Jade in Stone with relatively weak energy fluctuations and decided to integrate this piece first.

It was a piece of light yellow Jade in Stone with an oval shape. It was only half the size of a thumb, shining with a dim light.

“The “Golden Jade in Stone” can strengthen the finger bones.”

A voice suddenly sounded in his mind without warning.

Ding Hao froze for a moment and then he said happily, “You… Senior Sword Master? You’re awake… Are you okay? Senior Saber Master…”

“Bah, bah, bah, call me Saber Fairy. Why do you call me an old and ugly senior? Do you think I’m dead?” The unique voice of the Saber Master sounded in Ding Hao’s mind, but it sounded a little tired.

“Two seniors… Ah, no, Saber Fairy, are you all right? That’s great!” Ding Hao was overjoyed with a kind of ecstasy for reunion with his relatives. He said, “I thought you… thought you…”

“Do you think I’m dead?” Saber Master said, gnashing her teeth.

Ding Hao nodded.

“Don’t worry, we’re fine.” The Sword Master smiled with relief and said, “What’s more, there is a saying that a good person doesn’t live long but an evil person can live for a thousand years. How can a crazy woman villain like me die?”

The Saber Master got furious. “A cracked bell can never sound well. You b*stard, you want to make trouble for me, don’t you?”

Seeing that the two of them were about to confront each other once again, Ding Hao quickly changed the subject to release the tension between them. Then he asked, “By the way, I have been unable to get in touch with you. What happened?”

“It’s all because of the Heaven-Earth Blood Bone.” The Saber Master gritted her teeth and said, “That damned ‘Three-headed Heavenly Hound’ gave you its natal blood bone. I and that bastard were almost killed by it.”

Natal blood bone?

Ding Hao felt confused. However, after he swallowed the “Three-headed Heavenly Hound”, the golden light ball formed in his mind was indeed mysterious and powerful, and it was like a heavenly eye. Ding Hao activated it several times, which enabled him to see through what many people could not see.

“That damned little ball could actually absorb spiritual and divine senses, and it almost swallowed both me and that mad woman…” The Sword Master still had lingering fears.

On that day, after Ding Hao swallowed the Heaven-earth Blood Bone given by the “Three-headed Heavenly Hound”, a strange change took place in his body. As soon as the golden light ball was formed in Ding Hao’s body, it generated a strong suction force, and a terrifying pulling force to absorb the divine senses. The Saber Master and the Sword Master were instantly dragged into the golden light ball in the form of divine soul when the golden light ball was wildly devouring the divine senses.

That was definitely a terrible experience.

If it weren’t for the fact that the two old monsters were richly experienced and managed to keep a trace of their real souls alive with a secret skill, they would have long turned into the nutrient for, and a part of, the golden light ball.

“I will never let go of that black puppy in the future. It is the offspring of the ‘Three-headed Heavenly Hound’, isn’t it? I’m going to eat dog meat in a hot pot!” The Saber Master gritted her teeth and made up her mind. In the past, she dominated between heaven and earth, and she was so powerful that she would even kill gods and Buddhas standing in her way. Unexpectedly, she was defeated by a giant dog. How could she swallow her anger?

“Woof, woof!” The black puppy that had been quietly lying by the side suddenly barked and shivered all over.

Ding Hao began to mourn in silence for the black puppy. Since it had offended the Saber Master, a woman who tended to hold grudges, there would probably be no good days for it in the future.

“Have you already broken free from the golden light ball?” Ding Hao asked, hoping that they have.

“Not yet.” The Sword Master sighed and said, “The crazy woman and I are still trapped in this golden light ball. We’re just using a secret skill for sound transmission to talk to you right now. We can only maintain it for a short while.”

“So, Little Chap Ding, stop talking crap from now on. Time is very precious for us.” The Saber Master said in a self-righteous manner.

Ding Hao was speechless.

“Who on earth has been wasting time talking crap for half a day?”

“The two of us are not in any danger yet. Let’s make a long story short. Let me tell you the appearance and name of these pieces of Jade in Stone, as well as with which bones they should be integrated…” The Sword Master really had a professional conscience. He hurriedly introduced the useful pieces of Jade in Stone in Ding Hao’s hands.

After that, Ding Hao suddenly understood many things.

He was very grateful in his heart. The two old monsters were in a bad situation, but they were still concerned about his practice.

“Little fellow, I am now trapped in this golden light ball, and I don’t think I can get out of it in a short time. However, this won’t prevent you from activating this damn ball.” The Saber Master finally got the chance to speak after the Sword Master had just finished speaking. She hurried to say, “But thanks to this change, I’ve come up with an idea to get out of it.”

“A way out?” Ding Hao’s eyes lit up. “Senior Saber Fairy, you mean…”

“Of course I have to get out of your body.” The Saber Master said proudly. “Haha, I came up with this idea alone. It has nothing to do with that bastard. Haha, what do you think? Don’t you admire me very much?”

Ding Hao was speechless.

Her words rendered the Sword Master speechless.

Hey, who said that time was precious? Why are you staring to talk crap again?

The Saber Master showed off for a while, and then her tone became a little more serious. She said, “Well, Little Chap Ding, you must bear this in mind. Go find a couple of things for me. After you find them and merge them into the devil saber and rusted sword, that old bastard and I will be able to get out of your body and exist in the outside world independently.

Really?

Ding Hao’s eyes lit up.

This was really good news. The Saber Master and the Sword Master had been planning for their new physical forms. They had also made a list of the materials required and asked Ding Hao to help find them. Unfortunately, he had not made much progress in the past few years. Even in the Sage Battlefield where there were countless natural treasures, Ding Hao did not find the divine materials that the two old monsters needed, so the progress had been delayed.

If the two old monsters could get out of Ding Hao’s body, it would be a good thing for both Ding Hao and themselves.

Ding Hao carefully recorded the materials listed by the Saber Master.

Some of them were divine materials, including all kinds of extremely rare metals that, according to the Saber Master’s words, were used to repair the rusted sword and evil saber. Some materials were rare herbs that could be refined into some elixirs. These elixirs could strengthen the divine souls of the Saber Master and the Sword Master. As to their specific purposes, the Saber Master told Ding Hao that he would naturally know after he had collected the rare herbs.

Soon, the two old monsters fell into a deep sleep again.

It seemed that it took a lot of energy for them to communicate with Ding Hao through the wall of the golden light ball, and they could not hold on for too long each time they talked to him this way.

At this time, Ding Hao felt much more relieved.

Ding Hao regulated his body to perfect peak conditions and integrated his spirit, vigor, and energy as one. He took a deep breath and swallowed the Golden Jade in Stone.
