Without Ding Hao, Li Lan, and Lu Pengfei, the Eastern Academy of green shirts had no central figures. Every disciple was jittery. Lu Qi, the teacher-in-charge, did not show up anymore since he was defeated by Ding Hao. The Eastern Academy of green shirts was now in a state of disunity.
One month later, it would be the year-end exam of the five academies. The Eastern Academy of green shirts was the least favored.
The storm was coming with the wind.
Soon, there was the exact news from the high-levels of the Sect.
Two days later, the head Li Jianyi was going to preside over the Joint Trial between the Six Palaces in the Law Enforcement Hall. At that time, the high-levels would personally ask Ding Hao about murdering his fellow disciples.
The news spread and the Sect shook.
Since the beginning of this year, Li Jianyi, the head of the Sect and one of the experts in the Snow Province, had rarely cared about the affairs between those low-level disciples. The evidence that Ding Hao killed other disciples was conclusive, but the president still insisted on dealing with that thing personally, which surprised everyone.
Ding Hao’s residence had been monitored by the Sect’s masters.
Various rumors spread among the crowd.
Ding Hao did not reply to all of that at all.
He seemed to have already accepted his fate without taking any movements and asking anyone’s help. In addition to paying a lot of Sect contribution points and borrowing 15 copies of cultivating Qi with the five elements in Weapon depot, he rarely walked out of his room.
…
On that day—
Ding Hao quietly sat on the futon like an eminent monk in a meditative state. His face was calm, not sad and not joyful, and his whole body shone with a pure silver glare.
The golden sunlight came through the windows and poured on Ding Hao’s body.
In the entire stone room, it was bitterly cold. The ground and the walls had been covered with a thick layer of crystal ice, shining with holy brilliance. The closer to Ding Hao, the colder it was.
Crystal snowflakes, like lightsome white elves, flew around Ding Hao intimately, forming a sly ice shield.
Inside Ding Hao’s body, there were thirty-three bright spots, which were looming, like the stars in the universe, distributed in extremely strange trajectories. They were connected by traces. They looked like a star map of the sky.
As time went by, it began to change.
The line uniting the stars was getting brighter and wider, and the line was trying to extend from the 33rd star, constantly shrinking and stretching, and tirelessly impacting the dark areas with strange rhythms.
It went around and began again.
Some time later, the light reached the extreme, and suddenly, Ding Hao shook, and the 34th star appeared in his body.
“Finally! Xuan Xing, the seventh aperture of the great Martial Mentor Realm, is developed successfully!”
Ding Hao opened his eyes and looked happy.
Finally, before the trouble came, his cultivation advanced by a small realm.
Then he took out four secrets from his storage ring and began to read one by one. He needed to master Human Rank Highest Grade Qi of the five elements to practice the third layer of the Heart Essential of the Invincible Fighting Method. The day before yesterday, Ding Hao spent 12 hours to find out the manuals about how to cultivate Qi of the five elements.
Nowadays, he was already a talented seven-apertured great Martial Mentor. In this case, he could quickly and successfully cultivate Human Rank Highest Grade Qi. He could master one Qi of the five elements in two to four hours.
At sunset, Ding Hao had thoroughly mastered the four Qi of gold, wood, fire, and earth.
His constitution was of mutated ice attribute, which was very good to practice the Ice Qi. Naturally, it was not the best to practice those four mental cultivation methods, but it was enough to satisfy the conditions of the Heart Essential.
Thinking of the Ultimacy of the Heart Essential, Ding Hao began to consolidate and integrate the cultivation method of the five elements.
Time flew by quickly.
The silver moon fell and the sun rose.
Soon, one night had passed.
On the branches and grasses in the courtyard hung crystal dews, reflecting the fascinating multicolored light of the sunlight, and the unknown birds were clearly and melodiously chirping in the air.
As Ding Hao pushed the door open and walked out, there was a smile on his face.
After a night of effort, he finally succeeded in integrating Qi of the five elements, and completed the cultivation of the third layer of the Heart Essential. His Hell Ice Qi in his lower dantian and his Heaven Fire Qi in his middle dantian were upgraded again.
The two yin and yang Qi that reinforced each other were like the most turbulent rivers in the world. They flew quickly through Hand’s Minor Yang, Hand’s Minor Yin, Foot’s Minor Yang, Foot’s Minor Yin, Ren Meridian, and Governing Vessel, providing never-ending and powerful energy to nurture Ding Hao’s body.
Generally speaking, an ordinary great Martial Mentor had many unimaginable Magic Skills.
He was immune to all the diseases and he could live to 200 years old. His body contained a strength of 100,000 kilograms. He could jump 500 meters high, had a fast speed, was not afraid of water and fire. The ordinary weapons could not hurt him. His Qi could turn into armors and weapons. The more apertures he opened, the shaper his Qi weapons would be and the stronger his Qi armors would be.
However, Ding Hao’s current combat power was more than the strength of an ordinary great Martial Soldier.
He had the body of Saintly Being of Saber and Sword and cultivated double dantians, having two different Qis. His cultivation skill was the Invincible Fighting Method, a rare, powerful one. He had 400 years of life. He not only was immune to all the diseases but also all the poisons. He could jump 1,000 meters high, and his speed was more than two times faster than a Martial Mentor’s. He could condense fire and water shield to cover his whole body.
When he reached the seven-apertured great Martial Mentor, he would be able to condense 100 Qi weapons.
Aside from the realm itself, Ding Hao had completely surpassed the congenital Martial Mentors and was comparable to a congenital grandmaster.
With the “God’s skill” of the Fight Essential and his “half-step Sword Intent”, his attack power would be as strong as the strength of a great grandmaster.
Under the golden sun, Ding Hao stood on the steps of the door. His body was slender and his black hair was like a waterfall. He began to try his new magical powers.
A layer of silvery Qi armor slowly appeared on his body.
The armor was silver, and it changed along with his thought.
The silver armor glittered and had a streamlined design. Armed to the teeth, Ding Hao only revealed his eyes. Arms like dragon scales rippled on Ding Hao’s skin, covering all his wrists, ankles, knees, elbows, neck, and other joints. If someone looked from the distance, he would find a War God with silver armor and releasing a strong aura.
