Supreme Emperor of Swords

Chapter 475 - The Highest Heaven



Chapter 475 The Highest Heaven

“What a vast lake!”

Standing on the deck and looking down, Ding Hao couldn’t help uttering his admiration.

The lake was misty. For thousands of miles, the reeds were swinging and the blue waves were like a tide. Looking down, people could only hear the sound of the water, but the water was covered by various plants. In the plants, all kinds of rare birds and beasts came and went. Sometimes, a water column soared into the sky. A huge unknown fierce animal exposed some part of its body, which was as majestic as a mountain. The water vapor rising into the sky made the water elements in the surrounding thousands of miles become extremely active.

“Shall we land?” Tian Neng asked.

“Descend to 500 meters above the water. If anything dangerous is there, immediately take off.”

Just as he was talking, he took the lead in rushing off of the deck, turning into a streamer, and diving into the water. His huge consciousness radiated out like a tide, covering the surrounding 50 miles. First of all, he had to make sure whether or not there were any terrible beasts hiding in this seemingly peaceful water.

The result was better than expected.

Ding Hao found that some beasts were extremely large, but they were not ferocious, their strength was not high, and they did not pose a great threat to him and his friends.

In Ding Hao’s mind, he recalled the growth habit of the Ten-Thousand-Year Turtle-Back-Shaped Ganoderma and began to look for it in the vast lake accordingly.

He had come here for a simple purpose, that was, to find one of the herbs—the Turtle-Back-Shaped Ganoderma—to make the Mysterious Elixir of Magic Horns, which could be used to treat Ximen Qianxue.

According to the Sabre Master and the Sword Master, the Ten-Thousand-Year Turtle-Back-Shaped Ganoderma usually grew in the water, which was shaped like a turtle’s back. Their roots had to be soaked in water, but their branches and leaves liked sunshine. There were very strict requirements for the water quality and depth. As long as they were looked for by following the terrain, it should not be difficult to get them in the Sage Battlefield, there were many Hundred-Year Wisdom Herbs in such an original ecological environment.

Very soon after, Ding Hao discovered some herbs.

He found more than 10 Turtle-Back-Shaped Ganoderma, but unfortunately, they were not 10,000 years old, and they were not old enough. But that was encouraging for Ding Hao, which showed that he was not going in the wrong direction.

Finally, at noon, Ding Hao discovered a king of Turtle-Back-Shaped Ganoderma.

That plant was as big as a dou. It looked like a giant turtle floating in the water. With the clear inscriptions, the plant was five-sided and connected to each other, full of beauty of nature. It sent out the faint fragrance of medicine. Around it were a number of strange beasts. They were not weak in strength. They seemed to be protecting the king plant. Indeed, rare things were often accompanied by strange beasts.

Unfortunately, the strength of these giant beasts was far less than Ding Hao’s.

Without much effort, Ding Hao took the king plant and went back to Shenzhou-1. When the silver-gray flying boat rose into the sky, a roar could be heard from the giant beasts in the water below, who were unwilling to give up, but it didn’t help.

“We need 16 types of herbs, and now we’ve got one.”

Ding Hao carefully collected that Ten-Thousand-Year Turtle-Back-Shaped Ganoderma, and he felt greatly relieved.

At that speed, it could be estimated that before leaving the Sage Battlefield, Ding Hao could gather all the herbs needed to refine the Mysterious Elixir of Magic Horns, and Ximen Qianxue would be rescued from the state of fake death.

“Meow, Ding Hao, those three new servants you just took seem to be bored, and they were crying outside to see you.” Fat Cat Evil Moon came in from the outside, wagging his tail, and said with doubt, “You won’t seclude yourself again, will you? I suffocate when you seclude yourself, and I will have no one to play with. Put your cultivation aside now. Let’s play a little game first…”

Ding Hao: “Ok, let’s play a fun game.”

Evil Moon: “That’s great. Tell me. Tell me. What game?”

Ding Hao: “Let’s play a game in which both of us ignore each other, Ok?”

Evil Moon: “…”

Ding Hao laughed. “Oh, have those three guys come in. Don’t worry, I won’t seclude myself for the time being.”

Evil Moon felt excited to deliver the message.

Soon, the Three Emperors of Ning Province walked into the cabin with awe. As they looked at Ding Hao, the expressions on their faces were extremely complicated, but there was no superior provocation or contempt. They were indeed frightened by Ding Hao. That time, they were defeated face-to-face by him. They were really beaten so hard that they admitted their defeat.

“Tell me, what can I do for you?” said Ding Hao relaxedly, sitting on the chair.

The Three Emperors of Ning Province looked at each other and hesitated a little. The eldest brother said, “Ding Hao, we have been defeated by you. This time, we admit our defeat and we are completely convinced. I swear in the name of the Guardian God of the Tianning Dynasty, that even if we leave Sage Battlefield, we and the Tianning Dynasty will not be enemies with you again. We want to make a deal with you.”

“Oh? A deal? ” Ding Hao’s curiosity was aroused.

The eldest brother said seriously, “Before talking about the specific content, we three brothers want to make sure whether or not that piece of the road map that Ning Huxiao got is not in your hands.”

Ding Hao felt stunned slightly and frowned. “How do you know about the map?”

The eldest brother didn’t hide it, saying, “We three brothers and Ning Huxiao had a friendship. Before entering Sage Battlefield, we left some means to exchange information with each other. If we could meet each other in Sage Battlefield, we could form an alliance with each other and advance and retreat together, which would greatly increase the possibility of survival. As far as I know, there is such an agreement between the disciples of the Northern Region…”

Ding Hao nodded in secret.

It was the same function of the silver ring that he distributed to the disciples of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, which helped familiar people locate each other and meet right away.

It seemed that he was not the only intelligent person in the world.

Other super large sects had already thought of such a means, and they got obviously prepared and did much better than him.

The eldest brother of the Three Emperors of Ning Province continued, “That day, we brothers suddenly received Ning Huxiao’s message that he was lucky to get a map of a mysterious site. Unfortunately, before he could decode it, he encountered a strong enemy and the map also fell into his hands. He invited us to come to help him secretly. If he got the map, he could share it with us. So we got to know the specific location of the ancient city’s military station. We went there day and night, but on the way, we met your refined aeroboat…”

Ding Hao nodded.

He had known what happened later.

What the eldest said verified Ding Hao’s previous speculation that there was a connection between the Three Emperors of Ning Province and Ning Huxiao.

“That piece of the map is really in my hands. Tell me what deal you want to make with me.” Ding Hao did not hide it.

The Three Emperors of Ning Province looked serious. They looked at each other and discussed in a low voice for a while. Then the eldest brother came out, saying, “Ding Hao, this time, it is very important. I hope we can treat each other honestly. In order to show our sincerity, we have told you everything we know first…”

The Human Clan and the Demon Clan in the Northern Region must have definitely known much more about the development of the Sage Battlefield than ordinary people.

Tens of thousands of years ago, the Human Clan and the Demon Clan entered Sage Battlefield and left traces in the strange world.

For the first time, in a relatively safe area, the Human Clan and the Demon Clan in the Northern Region worked together to build a huge city, collecting and storing all kinds of treasures that had been collected by countless geniuses of the two clans in the past tens of thousands of years, but could not be taken out of Sage Battlefield. Even though the power of rules of Sage Battlefield would let outsiders who had been in it for more than half a year be directly transmitted out, that exclusion was limited to life objects. However, some powerful supernatural beings and demons of the Human and Demon clans created some puppets of magical weapons close to life, which continued to maintain the operation of the city during the closing period for the Sage Battlefield to the outside world.

Because of the importance of that city, only a few in the Human Clan and the Demon Clan in the whole Northern Region knew of its existence.

In the vast Northern Region, the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect and the Tranquility Academy were little sects with no importance. Although they could obtain places to enter the Sage Battlefield every time, they were not qualified to know such a secret. The disciples of such sects at that level had never found the existence of that huge city.

In fact, more tragic incidents had happened to small sects.

Taking the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect as an example…

Prior to Ding Hao, the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect had sent its disciples to enter the Sage Battlefield six times. Unfortunately, the most excellent and outstanding disciples selected were like bulls in the mud and they never returned. Most of them died in the Sage Battlefield.

It was the same with the Tranquility Academy. For thousands of years, at least more than 100 people had entered the Sage Battlefield, and few people had gotten out of it. Finally, only Lu Xiongfei stayed in the Tranquility Academy

It was said that the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect once had a brilliant genius. After getting qualified to enter the Sage Battlefield and coming out alive, it once made the whole sect seethe with excitement. Unfortunately, she didn’t have much loyalty to the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect. Later, she never returned to the Sect. Instead, she turned to join a super sect in Green Province and completely abandoned the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect.

The giant city jointly created by the Human Clan and the Demon Clan was called the Highest Heaven.

In the Highest Heaven, there was unimaginable wealth and cultivation resources, and also countless possibilities.

Geniuses from all super sects came together and traded with each other.

That huge city was described to be extremely luxurious. According to the legend, there were all types of miracles and treasures, which were beyond people’s imagination. Any miracle or treasure that people named could be obtained there.

In that great city, there were no rules and the strong were respected.

Originally, with the status of the Three Emperors of Ning Province, they were qualified to enter the battlefield, but they had no say in it. If they had that piece of the map in their hands, they might have a say, so they were so enthusiastic.

“If you want to find herbs that can cure your senior martial sister, as far as I know, there must be herbs in the giant city. If you go there, it’ll be much faster than trying to find them in the wild. Besides, it’s said that the people who have one piece of the map have already appeared there, and only three pieces remain to make a whole map. That is an easy thing for tens of thousands of years. So, we want to use this information and other secrets about the huge city to trade for the map in your hands. Let’s cooperate with each other, shall we?”

The eldest brother of the Three Emperors of Ning Province put forward a proposal after his general description.
