Chapter 1117 Where’s the Human Path?
When the others heard what the elder said, they were all instantly stunned.
“It’s such an incredible day today, isn’t it?
“How could so many incredible things happen in a row?”
Not only did Zhang Fan, the Mad Saber, show up to take in a disciple, but also Ding Hao, the Saber and Sword Addict, wanted to do so. This was a big event. The other teenagers were full of regret. If they had the courage to step forward just now like Li Yun and Mu Tian did, would Ding Hao have taken them as his nominal disciples as well?
Unfortunately, this opportunity was fleeting and would never come again.
Li Yun and Mu Tian looked at each other and could not suppress their excitement. At this time, they no longer envied Zhang Fan. It was simply a rare opportunity in tens of thousands of years for them to become the disciples of Chief Ding, the Saber and Sword Addict.
The two of them couldn’t wait as they looked forward to the arrival of tomorrow.
…
In fact, Ding Hao was just acting on the spur of the moment. He walked around the examination area for nominal disciples with Zhang Fan, Fang Tianyi, Zhong Dajun, and the others. He remembered that he had worked hard to become a nominal disciple of the sect back then, just like what these teenagers were doing now.
It was a pity that time passed quickly, and the people were different.
Now his mind was completely different. Although he was only a young man in his twenties, Ding Hao felt that he seemed to have aged while looking at these teenagers.
It had been more than three days since he had returned to the sect.
Ding Hao was not in a hurry to cultivate. Instead, he stayed with his wives and Tianshuang to enjoy the joy of family. He had never been so relaxed. At the same time, he was thinking about what he should do next. The first thing he thought of was to prepare for large-scale recruitment of disciples so that he could pass down his martial arts comprehension.
These 200 disciples would become the cornerstone of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect and even the entire Human Clan in the Northern Region in the future. Ding Hao would spare no effort to cultivate them. They would not take charge of the sect in terms of martial arts or belief, but they would definitely become important figures of the sect like law enforcers.
They would just be like the Mysterious Frost Holy Guards.
And Ding Hao even had greater hopes for them.
He hoped that these two hundred people would be able to support the entire clan.
In the past day, Ding Hao had secretly observed many young geniuses. In fact, before this, the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect had secretly checked them out. The rather young ones had been on the list, and Ding Hao was testing them according to the list.
As for Li Yun and Mu Tian, they were not on the list, but their results from various examinations showed that their qualifications met Ding Hao’s requirements.
Li Yun was particularly amazing. When Ding Hao first saw the young man, he was slightly stunned and suddenly thought of someone – Li Muyun.
Although there was a slight difference between the names of Li Yun and Li Muyun, their temperaments were very similar. At that moment, Ding Hao seemed to see the demeanor of the former chief of the Honorable Alliance of Seven. There was a kind of faint kingly aura. It was just like Li Muyun had been reborn.
Therefore, Ding Hao thought about it and added Li Yun to the list of nominal disciples.
However, he was also very happy that Zhang Fan had accepted a disciple, as he had expected.
Nowadays, Zhang Fan’s physical cultivation was extraordinary, and he could be regarded as one of the top masters in the entire Northern Region. Naturally, he was qualified to take in disciples. In particular, he had taken the Supreme Kung Fu Devoted by Ten Emperors to a higher and more unfathomable level. It was very likely that he had created a new cultivation school. He should diffuse his learning and spread his Tao.
Although Zhou Fan was doing very poorly, he had an excellent temperament and was the perfect candidate to inherit Zhang Fan’s martial arts.
However, the fact that Zhang Fan had accepted disciples also alerted Fang Tianyi, Zhong Dajun, Ren Xiaoyao, Wang Juefeng, and others. The guys also had the idea and shouted to choose the talents that could be cultivated so that they could pass down their martial arts.
Ding Hao listened to what they said and smiled inwardly.
This was a good thing for the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, especially Fang Tianyi. He had learned his unique skills from the Land of Divine Grace, which were completely different from the cultivation methods of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect. If the skills could be passed down in the sect, they would definitely be famous all over the world.
…
Back at the Sword-hidden Peak, Ding Hao sat cross-legged under the peach tree.
It was a very magical peach tree. No matter when it was, pink peach petals would fall. The flowers would bloom year after year and bloom from time to time. At every moment, the old petals withered, and new petals would bloom. It was like reincarnation.
Ding Hao sat cross-legged beneath the peach tree, letting go of all worldly matters.
The Sword-hidden Peak was suspended in the void and it was a floating mountain range. It was the place where Qi Qingshan used to cultivate and live in seclusion. It was also one of the most important institutions in the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect. The master of the Sword-hidden Peak had the power to monitor the whole sect and he was almost a Great Sect Master.
Sitting under the peach tree in front of the cliff, Ding Hao could overlook the whole Swordsmanship-seeking Sect.
His eyes swept across the whole sect as he looked at the flourishing mountain gate. Streaks of vigorous Qi of human nature enveloped the mountain gate and rose into the air like dragon pillars. This was a symbol of prosperity of the sect, indicating that the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect was now in its heyday period, and its luck was smooth and vigorous.
“Had Master Qingshan, Sect Leader Jianyi, and Chief Folei seen this, they would have definitely smiled in their graves! We survived under their protection, and finally, we did not let them down!”
Ding Hao gently sighed in his heart.
He then slowly closed his eyes and began to cultivate in seclusion.
This time, he was in flexible secluded cultivation, and he could end it at any time. Wisps of gold and silver mist appeared in his body, slowly swimming around him. They finally slowly turned into the gold and silver Yin and Yang Pisces Diagram, enveloping Ding Hao.
During his trip to the Hungry Ghost Sect, Ding Hao’s biggest gain was comprehending some of the mysteries of the Yin and Yang Reincarnation.
Enlightened by the black-and-white well, he found the essence of martial arts. By absorbing the Reincarnation Power from the Hungry Ghost Path, he could evolve the two kinds of power in the Twelve Meridians and Six Strange Veins into the Yin and Yang Pisces Diagram, which could produce a very strong momentum. With this trump card, he defeated Ding Tong, cracked the Seven Star-shaped Eyes of Fate, and replayed them in his own eyes.
Ding Hao felt that he must have gone through a life-and-death reincarnation at that time.
The current him was the one after the reincarnation.
It was also because of that battle that Ding Hao’s Qi cultivation had reached the Completion of the dual meridian and six-apertured Martial Demigod. This kind of crazy growth was related to the Reincarnation Power of the Hungry Ghost Path, the Devil Saber and the Rusted Sword, the Yin and Yang Pisces Diagram, the Saintly Being of Saber and Sword, and Ding Tong. In short, due to opportunities in all aspects, Ding Hao’s martial arts cultivation experienced an incredible increase in strength.
It was also because of this sudden and crazy surge that Ding Hao could not fully handle the power in his body. He could not completely master the magical power that a six-apertured God Realm Master should have. At least in terms of the comprehension and application of the rules between heaven and earth, there was still a gap between him and those really experienced experts.
At the moment, the most urgent thing for Ding Hao to do was to comprehend and understand the rules between heaven and earth and turn the power of the rules into his own.
His Qi cultivation was that of a dual meridian and six-apertured Martial Demigod. In normal circumstances, his combat ability would be stronger than that of a six-apertured Martial Demigod. In theory, like the God of War of Mysterious Frost in the Northern Region, he could rebuild the rules and world and create a small world as his own Tao, just like how the God of War of Mysterious Frost had created the Ice and Snow Tao and how the Lord Buddha had created the Benevolence Tao. But obviously, Ding Hao could not achieve that now.
This was because he lacked the ability to utilize the rules between heaven and the earth.
It was also a weakness that he urgently needed to make up for.
Otherwise, he would not be a real high-level God Realm Master if he only had dual meridian six-apertured Qi cultivation and did not have the ability to grasp the rules that matched the cultivation.
Ding Hao sat upright under the peach tree and activated the Martial Arts Third Eye and the Seven Star-shaped Eyes of Fate at the same time. Three beams of pupil radiance ran through the sky and the earth like three divine swords, piercing the void and perceiving the mystery of the world.
He had already entered a state of extraterrestrial mind.
In this state, what Ding Hao could see was not natural and substantial things like rivers, mountains, and so on, but he could see the things underneath their surface. He was looking at the invisible rules and tracks running between heaven and earth, the Qi of Heaven and Earth, and the invisible power that restricted all living things.
Ding Hao’s Divine Senses were drifting around.
He had entered a profound and incredible state of mind.
The Seven Star-shaped Eyes of Fate were really helpful for cultivation. No wonder Ding Tong used to be so powerful. Although Ding Hao had not yet activated that ever-changing pupil technique, he could see through the false more clearly. He could see the operation of the rules and everything in his eyes.
He was completely intoxicated.
This time, the secluded cultivation lasted an entire night.
Before dawn on the second day, he suddenly woke up from his cultivation.
When he opened his eyes again to look at the world, he found that everything seemed to have changed.
Ding Hao slowly stretched his arms. A small golden saber in his left hand was rotating, and a small silver sword in his right hand was shining. This saber and sword were not real, but they seemed to be real. There was a strange aura flowing around them, which only Ding Hao could see and others couldn’t.
This was his initial comprehension of the power of the rules.
It was one world in the blade and another in the sword.
If Ding Hao wanted to create a small world like the God of War of Mysterious Frost, he needed to comprehend the rules of heaven and earth further. The world changed when he used the golden saber, and the space alternated when he used the silver sword. When he achieved that, it would be the time for his own small world to reach completion.
“So that’s how it is. I get it.”
A smile appeared on Ding Hao’s face. His constitution was too shocking. He had the Saintly Being of Saber and Sword and the Seven Star-shaped Eyes of Fate. His cultivation was almost irresistible. There was no bottleneck at all, and there would be no comprehension obstacle. Everything was going well.
In his eyes, it only took him a moment to fully comprehend the profundities that were extremely difficult for others to comprehend and master. It was so easy for him to achieve it that he didn’t need to spend much effort.
“My Tao can be expected now.”
Ding Hao was full of confidence.
According to this trend, if there was no accident, it was simply a matter of time before he reached the legendary Celestial Realm.
He slowly exhaled a mouthful of foul air and set the matter of cultivation aside for the time being.
Ding Hao recalled what Ding Honglei had said before she died that his parents were waiting for him on the Human Path. The alleged Human Path should be one of the six paths, but no one could tell where it was exactly.
The Human Path was one of the three good paths. According to some classical books and legends in the Land of Infinity, the strength of the martial artists in the Land of Divine Grace was extraordinary. That place was the Heaven Path among the six paths, which had clear rules and abundant Spiritual Qi. Ding Hao had sent his Divine Senses to the Asura Path, so he could rule it out. The Human Path was naturally the Land of Infinity, a relatively barren and backward land.
“Could it be that my parents are waiting for me somewhere in the Land of Infinity?”
Ding Hao was a little confused.
“If they’re really in the Land of Infinity, Ding Honglei could have just said it directly. She didn’t need to tell me about the Human Path!
“Something strange is going on within this!”
