Chapter 450: Accumulation—Killing Is Here Again

Ten days before, without channeling Qi, Ding Hao’s physical strength could reach one hundred kilograms with one attack with all his might. Whereas at the moment, he could distort the air just by waving his hands subconsciously. The progress was horrifying. Ding Hao estimated that his physical strength could reach four hundred kilograms.

“In the last ten days, my strength was actually quadrupled.”

“Is this the benefit… of merging the power of ‘Yin Yang Jade in the Stone’? Ding Hao thought.

Ding Hao felt that even if he didn’t channel Qi then, he could beat superiors at the primordial grandmaster realm with his physical strength. His strength had grown so fast that it was a bit difficult to get used to that feeling for a while. With a slight movement of his body, a powerful force would burst out, making the air around him boom. It was difficult for him to endure that pressure.

“To control, I must learn to control this power first …” Ding Hao thought.

The sudden power made Ding Hao feel like a toddler. He calmed down and familiarized himself with that power slowly. Otherwise, even with such great power, if he couldn’t harness it, he wouldn’t be able to exert his real combat strength.

Standing still, Ding Hao performed the “Seven Black Cut,” one move after another.

Those seven cutting methods could exercise every part of the body, which was the most suitable for getting familiar with new power.

After performing the “Seven Black Cut” ten times in total, Ding Hao felt a slight heat all over his body, and the heavy-headed feeling was dispersed. He finally was able to control the new power, waving his arms without distorting the air. As long as he didn’t do it on purpose, his control could make him appear like an ordinary person.

Ding Hao slowly opened his eyes.

“Not only my physical strength has become stronger, but also my tenacity has increased several times. The skin is crystal clear, the bones are strong like steel, and the flesh and blood are fresh. I originally had “Saintly Being of Saber and Sword” and I soaked in the mysterious white liquid of the cave in the garbage area of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, so I was several times stronger than the warriors at the same realm. Because of that, I didn’t feel exhausted after doing the “Beast Transform.” I also could largely receive the power of the underground inscription formation in the Giant Holy City, which was beyond the imagination of the “Three Sovereigns of Ning Province.” At that time, I could almost reach the realm of seven or eight-apertured Martial King. But now, after being rebuilt by the “Yin and Yang Jade in Stone,” it seems that I was as strong as the warriors at the realm of Half Step to Martial King…”

After introspection, Ding Hao came to that conclusion.

At the same time, he also found that on some of his bones, there were some strange silver patterns. Although they were extremely subtle, they contained a strange power which made the bones tougher.

“Are these Heaven-Earth patterns? Those tyrannical beasts had Heaven-Earth Blood Bones in their hearts which could communicate with the Divine Law of heaven and earth. If I can condense such patterns on all of my bones, wouldn’t it be possible for me to communicate with the Divine Law of heaven and earth, like those ominous beasts? The various benefits are not just as simple as getting an ordinary golden body!”

Ding Hao wondered.

He told his thoughts to the Saber Master and Sword Master.

“People have tried this idea before, but only one succeeded, because there is only one possible way to condense the patterns on human’s own bones. That is to assimilate “Jade in the stone” which is called “Son of Fate” and “Heart of Heaven and Earth.” Unfortunately, “Jade in the stone” is a rare and precious gem in the world, even those matchless superiors cannot gather seventeen kinds of “Jade in the stone” in their lifetimes. In primitive eras, there was a genius who had obtained ten kinds of “Jade in the stone” and finished condensing Heaven-Earth patterns on two hundred pieces of bones out of the total three hundred and forty bones in his whole body. He had been invincible for a while, but unfortunately he consumed too much energy by doing that. In the end, he was unable to achieve the Great Way and died…”

Saber Master and Sword Master recounted stories about some attempts done by geniuses in the past. For millions of years, they had never heard about anyone succeeding in collecting all seventeen kinds of “Jade in the stone.” It could be said that it was a helpless road.

“Of course, if you can collect all kinds of “Jade in the stone” and condense the patterns on the total three hundred and forty bones, then you can dominate the Land of Infinity and achieve a supreme status…” They said. The two old monsters admitted the possibility of that idea, while being pessimistic about Ding Hao’s attempt.

Ding Hao smiled and said, “Since it’s feasible, then I’ll try it. What if I’m lucky enough and gather seventeen kinds of “Jade in the stone”? Of course, I know what’s important. I’ll never run against fate nor put the cart before the horse. It’s all up to fate.”

“That’s for the best,” Saber Master said. When seeing Ding Hao was easy and peaceful, he felt relieved.

Although Martial Arts emphasized on forging ahead with determination, it also disapproved of forcing upon it. Doing what is impossible would generate obsession and inner devils which would reversely become the biggest obstacle to the promotion of martial arts.

Ding Hao continued to appreciate the benefits of integrating “Jade in the stone.”

In addition to the rare Heaven-Earth patterns on the twenty bones of his chest, there was a complete inner transformation. Through Inner Vision, Ding Hao found that his blood seemed to be turning into silver.

“Now my Qi cultivation is at the Half Step to Great Grandmaster realm, and my physical strength can match nine-apertured Martial Kings. Taking other methods like Sword Intent and Beast Transform into account, when facing superiors at the one-apertured Martial Emperor realm, I can manage. When once again I encounter people like the “Three Sovereigns of Ning Province,” I can also destroy them without relying on the power of the underground thunder vein formation of Giant Holy City! Moreover, when returning to Snow Province, I have a great chance to defeat Lu Xiongfei, the No.1 expert of the Tranquility Academy. However, when facing Mu Tianyang…” Ding Hao thought.

Ding Hao was not sure what kind of result he would if he fought against Mu Tianyang with his current strength.

The intuition developed by “Mind Essential” was extremely sensitive. His sense of danger and abnormalities was precise. However, as for Mu Tianyang, Ding Hao was never able to see through him.

It took Ding Hao ten days in total to integrate the “Yin Yang Jade in the Stone.” Twenty days had passed since he entered the Sage Battlefield. There was plenty of time before the half a year deadline; such speed of improvement was really beyond the imagination of the outside world. He didn’t know what achievements his friends had attained since entering the Sage Battlefield.

Ding Hao didn’t hurry to leave the mountain cave.

He took out the pair of ox horns and the Giant White Bone once used by the giant ape monster. He started refining according to his own ideas. He wanted to make six giant weapons for the white ape with three heads and six arms after the Beast Transform. Although Ding Hao currently had the rusted sword, the Water Sword, the Wen Qing Saber and other weapons, after transforming, he could only rely on Qi to condense giant weapons which ended in consuming much more Qi.

That process took a long time.

Twenty days later, Ding Hao had finally completed the casting of new weapons.

Those two ox horns were refined into antique machetes according to their original shape, which looked like two round moons. The bone was surely made into a long sword. The original patterns of the bone were still visible on the sword. Ding Hao didn’t change them, because they had some power that Ding Hao had yet to figure out…

No matter the horns or the bone, they were all used by the four matchless Ominous Beasts. They were powerful, especially after being refined into weapons whose power increased instead. Each weapon was ten meters high, with inscriptions on them. That kind of weapons were still slightly short, which looked daggers when in the hands of the “Yin White Ape,” but it was much better than fighting bare handed.

Ding Hao wielded a white long sword in his hands.

The ten-meter long sword turned into a mass of silver light and weighed more than 5 kilograms, but it was as light as grass for Ding Hao. He found that the giant weapon was quite handy to use, even if he didn’t change into a giant ape, and there was an overwhelming power.

During the time he spent refining six weapons, Ding Hao didn’t stop cultivating Qi.

At the time, he had completely impacted the first aperture in the “Yang Ming Sixth Channel of the Hand,” and reached the one-apertured great grandmaster realm. But in the process of impacting, Ding Hao clearly felt that the speed of the previous promotion was too fast, so at the moment, the effect of the “Sage Battlefield” on his cultivation was gradually decreasing. It took twenty days for him to reach another small realm.

It seemed that with him reaching a cultivation above the great grandmaster realm, every promotion to a higher small realm would require a lot of energy and accumulation.

That was expected by Ding Hao.

Everyone would encounter such a situation; the higher the realm of martial arts, the harder it would be. Otherwise there wouldn’t be so few powerful people in the world.

On that day, Ding Hao finally decided to end his practice in the cave, and left to see other places in the Sage Battlefield. He had fully made use of the opportunities there. If he wanted continue his progress rate, he needed to venture into other areas of the battlefield. There was only half a year left, he couldn’t waste precious time…

Unexpectedly, before Ding Hao got out of the cave, something had suddenly changed—

The mountain shook for a while, and then a sharp voice with great anger came through the stone wall and resounded. “Cunning Human, you were actually hiding here. Where is the “Jade in the Stone”? Hand it over and I’ll spare you…”

Then there was a boom, and the whole mountain was broken into pieces of debris.

Ding Hao moved quickly out of the collapsed boulder and stagnated in the sky.

Opposite him was a little black snake with a horrifying Demonic Qi which was only two meters long. It was more powerful than the ape with three heads and six arms. Its dense black Demonic Qi completely surrounded the land within a hundred miles. Its mung bean-sized eyes released a fierce flame which seemed able to melt metal and stared at him.
