This time, however, the hot current formed by the Heaven-Earth Blood Bone did not descend down his body, but rushed up to Ding Hao’s tongue instead. It turned into an extremely aggressive and invasive electric current, directly penetrating Ding Hao’s upper jaw into his brain like a steel needle.

“What happened?”

Ding Hao was surprised and immediately activated his Bi Fang’s Fire. He held his breath and focused his mind, trying to control that heat current.

But the next moment, he felt a sharp pain in his mind. He let out a muffled groan.

The aggressive current-like heat rampaged everywhere like a detonating bomb in Ding Hao’s mind, exploding so violently in all directions that it almost blew his head up.

Ding Hao had a delusionary impression.

At this moment, his brain fluid and everything in his head seemed to have been blown into bits by the heat current, turning into a pasty mash.

He opened his mouth and wanted to yell.

But he soon realized that he could not make a sound at all.

He could not even open his mouth wide.

At this moment, many actions he used to do easily had become extremely difficult.

While he was still in a state of shock, another change occurred.

The center of his brain, where the heat current had first exploded, began emitting an indescribable heat, turning progressively hotter, as if a ball of fire was burning and expanding there.

This horrific heat current was about to incinerate Ding Hao.

At this critical moment, Ding Hao forced himself to calm down and activated the “My Thoughts and I Are One” Realm of the Mind Essential. His Divine Senses seemed almost tangible. He sat stock-still and peered inside his body, trying to locate the source and expel that heat current from his mind.

At this time, Ding Hao’s Divine Senses could instantly shatter even a five-thousand-kilogram boulder.

It could also easily enter his body to observe his inside carefully, and detect all the changes.

But this time, when he directed his Divine Senses into his brain, he was intercepted by an indescribable force. When his Divine Senses transmitted back the images, Ding Hao could only “see” a gleaming golden screen covering his brain. No matter how hard he tried to activate his Divine Senses, he could not see through this light screen into his brain.

The burning sensation in his brain became stronger and stronger.

Ding Hao felt the temperature of this heat current had already surpassed his Bi Fang’s Fire, yet strangely his head had not been incinerated. He could feel a distinct pain emanating from his brain, as if an invisible fire was scorching his nerves.

All of a sudden, a powerful stream of energy burst out from his mind where that burning sensation was at its most intense.

It was like burning lava that had been kept dormant underground for tens of millions of years. After accumulating enough heat, it finally burst through the earth and erupted like a volcano.

The energy emanated out from between Ding Hao’s eyebrows from the center of his forehead.

Ding Hao only felt that his skull directly rammed by this force, resulting in a bloody cavity. Then something truly bizarre burst out from that bloody cavity.

In the next moment, all the strange sensations in his mind vanished.

That power which was roasting his soul suddenly disappeared at this moment, as if it had never existed. Ding Hao could no longer feel any pain or heat. His brain, which had felt detonated, seemed to have healed in an instant.

Once again, Ding Hao could control his head movements.

He opened his eyes instinctively to look.

He found his eyes inexplicably watching the thick, pale red wall of the Towering Buddha Pagoda. He could see the scene outside the tower!

“How… how is this possible?”

Ding Hao was stunned.

The most impossible thing had actually happened.

After entering the Towering Buddha Pagoda, Ding Hao had tried all means and ways to see the outside world through its walls. He had never succeeded.

It was partly because there were no windows in the tower. It was a tower completely isolated from the outside world. Also, the red boulder from which this tower had been sculpted was extremely mysterious. Neither his Divine Senses nor his power ripples could penetrate the stone walls to see what was happening outside.

He remembered Uncle Tianshu’s wicked idea. The man wanted to break the spiral staircase leading up the floors, to stop others from fighting him over the treasures. In the end, he resentfully realized that no matter how hard he tried, he could not make even a small mark on the seemingly wooden railing. He had to give up.

Ding Hao also tried.

But he soon realized that the material used to build this tower was incredibly hard. He could not leave even a mark on the stone wall, even if he threw a punch with all his strength.

Perhaps only a forbidden weapon like the Rusted Sword or the Devil Saber could slash through the stone wall.

Ding Hao did not attempt that.

The Patriarch of the Black Demon Wolf Tribe could be regarded an absolute master among the creatures in the Towering Buddha Pagoda. Although he was eager to save his descendants, he could only transmit his power through the natural spiral staircase. His black Demon Aura attacked Ding Hao through the original passage of the tower. It could not penetrate the walls.

Every power would be cut off by this celestial tower.

But at this moment, Ding Hao could actually see the scene outside this tower!

“How… how did I do it?”

Ding Hao blinked continuously, and even raised his hand to rub his eyes. When he opened them again, everything before him was still in sharp focus. He could see the scene outside the Towering Buddha Pagoda, through that hard and mysterious red stone wall.

And this scene was so unbelievably clear!

Ding Hao could see the Sea of Opulent Buildings stretching hundreds of kilometers away outside the tower. The magnificent antique buildings were interconnected, undulating like a rippling sea of gold.

Looking down from the 97th-level of the tower, the buildings were like outstretched fingers, and the streets were like minuscule hairs. Yet Ding Hao found he could still see the tiny details of these buildings clearly, despite them being so far away.

He could even see some living creatures walking quickly in this Sea of Opulent Buildings.

Obviously, they were also adventurers who wanted to get into the pagoda and have a share of the pie. Some were from the Human Clan, while others were from the Demon Clan. They hurried on with their journey. Since they could trek deep into the Bone-burying Forest, their strength must be quite powerful.

The reappearance of the Sacred Hall ruins had caused a commotion in the martial arts world.

Due to their geographical proximity, the experts from the Divine Central Continent and the Southern Wilderness were the first to hear this news. They rushed here like a swarm of bees. The major forces of the Western Desert, the Eastern Frontier, and the Northern Region would likely all hear the news soon, and travel tens of millions of kilometers to these ruins.

By then, there would be more and more experts and forces in the Bone-burying Forest. They would then discover the Sea of Opulent Buildings and the Towering Buddha Pagoda, starting an absolutely brutal war!

Of course, these were not what Ding Hao was concerned about.

What shocked him was that he could actually see through the stone wall of the Towering Buddha Pagoda, and what was happening outside.

What a strange change…

“Does it have anything to do with the Heaven-Earth Blood Bone I swallowed just now?”

Was this X-ray vision a deviant secondary power of the Heaven-Earth Blood Bone?

When he thought of this, Ding Hao’s thoughts began to clear gradually.

That must be it!

The X-ray vision was really incredible, to be able to penetrate the stone walls of the Towering Buddha Pagoda. It really deserved to be called the Heaven-Earth Blood Bone, from a kingly Archean beast like the Three-headed Heavenly Hound!

While Ding Hao was calming down, he looked up and suddenly found something strange happening outside the tower.

A gray fog, like a leaden cloud, was rising in the distant periphery of the Sea of Opulent Buildings. It surrounded the pagoda like a tornado. Ding Hao instinctively focused his eyes to observe it carefully. He could not help but be stunned.

That gray fog was actually a cloud of dust and rock debris.

As for where these sand and rocks came from… they were from the constantly collapsing buildings—there seemed to be an earthquake in the outermost part of the Sea of Opulent Buildings. Pavilions and deity statues were tumbling continuously. The earth had cracked open. One could faintly see scarlet lava gushing out from the numerous fissures and abysses in the earth.

There were creatures on the streets who were wailing mournfully. They were soon engulfed by the massive cracks opening up in the earth.

It was like the total annihilation of the world on doomsday!

The sky was filled with black mists again, and the massive Third Eye Gate reopened. This time, instead of giant black chains falling out from it, it was Devil-like figures.

The 10,000-year-old Spirits of the Dead!

The dense Spirits of the Dead descended like dumplings. There were tens of millions of them, too many to count.

They landed on the ground and ghosted through the fissures and the collapsed pavilions and deity statues. Their bodies were constantly breaking down and reassembling. Like a black army, they were unstoppable. The moment they passed, everything was destroyed.

A few creatures who could not escape in time were swept into their company, wailing as they died.

Such a terrible scene had happened from the outermost periphery of the Sea of Opulent Buildings. Like a spreading fiery plague, they surrounded the Towering Buddha Pagoda. Although moving very slowly, they could not be stopped.

“Will… will these ruins be destroyed?”

Ding Hao was shocked.

In the next moment, a strange figure suddenly emerged from the dust and smoke, walking step by step on the fissured earth. Everything was swallowed by the lava whenever he passed. The tens of thousands of dead spirits had gathered around him, like ministers paying obeisance to their king, cheering and howling…

Who was that? He had brought on death and destruction so easily!
