“One is dead…” Ding Hao was ready; he quietly observed from the entrance of the cave.
The four giant beasts fought for two full days; one of which was a monster with a huge head and a crab-like body. Its head was smashed and its hill-like body fell down.
The remaining three monsters were already covered with wounds.
As for the ox-like monster covered with black flames, one of its knife horns snapped and its two forelegs were chopped off, but it was still fighting. It stood up on its hind legs, using its remaining horn to fight.
One of them was a green snake, covered with blue scale armor, with dense white hairs in the gaps of the scale armor. Obviously, it had the blood of the ancient Long, but it wasn’t pure. It was like a giant lizard. Its two horns had also snapped. Wounds covered its body, one of which was at its waist. The snake had almost been torn into two…
The sturdiest one was the giant ape-like monster with three heads and six arms.
Its strength was originally the strongest. It had mastered the magic skill: three heads and six arms. In addition, it had weapons—those white bone rods from an unknown beast. They were as hard as iron, infinitely powerful, and faintly flashed with natural formation inscriptions. As the rods slammed into the knife horn of the giant cow, sparks came out.
Although three arms and one of the legs of that giant ape monster were broken, it was still surpassing than the other two by waving three huge white bone rods…
They were all intelligent creatures. As they saw the situation was not good, the white-haired green snake and the sky-knife black-flame ox began to unite against the giant ape.
“Fight! Fight bitterly! You’d better kill each other…” Ding Hao watched for a while and returned to the cave, putting all the treasures he had collected during those days into a newly-made large storage ring. After he quietly erased all the traces in the cave and packed up everything, he left the cave, and slipped toward the edge of the battlefield of the three beasts.
To that extent, the strength of the three remaining beasts was less than half of their usual, so Ding Hao’s consciousness should be strong enough to deceive them.
While nimbly dodging large splotches of blood falling from the sky, while carefully avoiding the center of the battlefield, Ding Hao approached the battlefield unknowingly, and approached the corpse of the dead animal with a human head and a crab body.
In front of it, Ding Hao was as small as a small stone beside an elephant’s body.
Blood was still flowing out from the wounds on the monster’s body, like a waterfall falling down from a mountain…
As he went close, Ding Hao discovered that the monster’s head was only slightly human-like. In addition, its head had been smashed, it could not be seen clearly.
Ding Hao collected some blood from that monster, which could be used as a guiding herb for refining some special elixirs.
That monster had lived in the Sage Battlefield for endless years; its blood contained immense energy. Its fur and bones were rare materials for refining weapons and elixirs. It was too huge, otherwise, Ding Hao would have stored all of them. They were much more precious than the corpses of the monsters in the gaps of the Snow Dragon Mountain ice layer. If they were in the outside world, some Level Three or Level Two Sects would fight for those materials…
“Let’s see if there’s a Demonic Crystal…” the Saber Master urged.
That was the real treasure.
However, the beasts in that world were obviously different from the outer demons. Although they had magical powers comparable to the demons, and their innards were full of Demonic Qi, those were all born by nature and continued to grow stronger with age. Their strengths didn’t rely on Cultivation Methods and techniques they practiced, so Ding Hao was not sure if they had Demonic Crystals, like the demons outside…
Ding Hao carefully covered his body with Divine Awareness, then took out his rusted sword and Wen Qing Saber. He used his bodily power and began to search in the head of that giant beast.
The weapons Ding Hao was using were extremely sharp, high-level magical weapons. He also had tens of thousands of kilograms of power. Even cutting steel was like cutting mud, but he still felt it hard to cut the body of the dead beast. How tough and powerful the beast’s body was!
Besides, sixty to seventy percent of its body essence had flowed away.
It was estimated that, with Ding Hao’s current strength, he couldn’t even think about cutting off the creature’s flesh.
Entering from the huge wound, Ding Hao drilled a hole into the head of the monster, keeping off the flesh and blood with his Divine Awareness, and searched. He shuttled between broken bones and flesh, and soon gained something.
He found the Demonic Crystal.
That was a piece of orange-yellow translucent gem about the size of a watermelon. It contained such a terrifying power that even Ding Hao was shocked. The rolling Demonic Qi was like a boundless ocean. That crystal was a giant storage space. It had a space area of at least hundreds of miles…
“It’s not bad. It’s not a Demon Royal crystal, but it is a strange one. This monster was unlucky. Given three or five decades, it would become a Demon Royal. If so, its internal space would be bigger, and its value could be doubled…” The Saber Master praised for a while, and said, “Put it away first, it will be useful someday… And, don’t stop, go to the heart of this monster and if you’re lucky, you may get something there…”
“Yeah, I almost forgot about it. Hurry up, Little Chap Ding, go to its heart area. If you’re lucky, haha…” The Sword Master remembered something and urged.
Heart?
OK! Ding Hao gritted his teeth and continued to wave his sword and saber to move toward the depths of that mountain-like body.
On the way, there were lots of bones and blood vessels, so Ding Hao moved very slowly. The deeper he went in, the tougher and stronger the bones and flesh were. It seemed that he was cutting steel. His wrists were numb. The monster’s body was strange. Its structure was different from that of humans; it was a rare species. Ding Hao didn’t know where the heart was, so it was extremely troublesome to search around like a headless fly.
In the end, Ding Hao thought of a stupid solution.
He broke through the wall of a blood vessel, drilled into a large blood vessel, and walked against the blood that had started to become thick. No matter what kind of living things, the blood passed through the heart. Besides, the blood vessel was like a natural channel; there would be no need to forcefully excavate.
After 30 minutes, Ding Hao finally heard a faint throbbing sound.
The blood inside the vessel was gradually surging.
“Almost there… Speed up, haha. I’m right. Its heart was still beating…” The Saber Master was overjoyed, urging loudly.
Ding Hao wielded his sword and saber, like a shark swimming in the sea of blood, and moved quickly. The sound of the heart beating in his ear became clearer as if someone were beating a giant drum with magic power, but the intervals were getting longer and longer…
“Here it is.” Ding Hao calculated for a moment, and cut on the wall of the blood vessel with his weapons, then rushed out.
In front of him was a space like the inside of a giant mountain. Numerous dense, large and small blood vessels crossed over each other like a highway, passing through a sphere that emitted a huge red light, and then led to all parts of the body… That enormous red sphere was like the sun, turning the surroundings red. But unfortunately, it was at sunset. It was dying.
“Alas, the beast is dead, and its heart is about to lose its vitality, and it will stop beating…” Ding Hao couldn’t help but feel sad.
Such a powerful creature, however, was inevitably killed.
“What are you waiting for? Use the craftsmanship technique of Eternal Sky Immortal Light to refine it. This way, the heart will still be alive, so that it can temporarily guarantee its fire, and it will be of great use…” The Sword Master urged. He was very excited.
“Nonsense, I think we should first refine with the inscriptions. Maybe we can get the blood essence of this monster…” The Saber Master had a different opinion.
“Bullshit! You bumpkin with long hair, such short insight. Little Chap Ding already has the blood of the Earth Evil Divine Beast, the Baleful Devil White Ape, which is enough. Although this monster is overbearing, it is not yet a Divine Beast. Its blood essence is useless. But a living heart of a half-step Demon Royal is more useful, haha…” The Sword Master scolded without mercy.
The Saber Master cursed, but in the end she no longer insisted on refining the blood essence.
Ding Hao was laughing in his heart.
Knowing she had admitted that the Sword Master was more reliable, Ding Hao acted at once.
He took out a few Highest Grade mysterious crystals and placed them in his hands, then he adjusted his breath slightly, and prepared his state to its best condition. After that, he ran the skill of Eternal Sky Immortal Light. His two hands made the Immortal Light handprint and the Eternal Sky handprint to mobilize the power in the mysterious crystals, and turned it into an invisible Heaven Fire net, covering the huge red sphere!
…
Boom!
As the giant ape smashed out with its bone stick, there was lightning and a black flame. The remaining horn of the giant ox monster finally broke with sparks.
But at the same time, the giant ape was entangled by the green snake, leaving only one arm outside.
The giant ox monster screamed and suddenly took the opportunity to bite off the leg of the giant ape. Boom! The giant ox and the giant ape fell down. The ground cracked and every crack was like a canyon. The ape grabbed the snake and tore it apart. The snake has ripped in two parts from its waist, but it still entangled the ape with its upper body…
No winners!
But the great ape still had combat power.
It was angry, it punched on the head of that ox with its free-moving arm. The head without horns was so fragile that it was smashed into a slump. At the same time, the giant bull’s long giant tail smashed in the face of the ape, and one of the ape’s eyes was blown out…
The severe pain stimulated the strength of the giant ape. It grabbed the white-furred snake and pulled it severely. It immediately pulled out the internal organs of the snake; the blood was raining in the sky and lakes of it were formed in the ground.
The white-furred snake was very fierce, biting the giant ape’s neck and tearing its throat…
Ding Hao had just gotten out of the dead body and saw such a bloody and brutal scene. His mouth was wide open and he was thrilled, but the two Masters were both exclaiming and laughing.
“Wow! Hahaha, great! These three idiots are all gone together. What are we waiting for? Move! Refine their hearts, and dig out their Demonic Crystals… We’re rich… Ah! Refine the ape first! It’s your chance! Little Chap Ding, do you want your Incarnation of Baleful Devil White Ape to also have the skills of three heads and six arms? Haha…”
Ding Hao was stunned for a while and was immediately overjoyed.
“What? Can I get the skill of three heads and six arms of this great ape?” he exclaimed.
“Haha, hurry up, this giant ape has the highest strength, and is about to enter the Demon King Realm. Haha, I think there must be a Heaven-Earth Blood Bone in its body…” The Saber Master suddenly screamed and urged as if she saw her lover. “Aaaaah! Hurry! Hurry…”
