Supreme Emperor of Swords Chapter 533

Chapter 533 - A Mountain of Corpses and a Sea of Blood

A moment ago…

On an island with reeds and water around, which was 50 kilometers away from the ruins of the Swordsmanship-seeking Villa…

A pile of withered reeds was pushed aside, revealing a black hole the size of a man.

Huang Rong exited the hole with a vigilant look on his face.

Seeing that there were no enemies around, she signaled to the people behind her to follow.

These people were all women and children with almost no martial cultivation. They looked panicked and angry. They were the families of the warriors who were sacrificed in the villa. They escaped through a secret passage of the villa.

No inscription formation was used during the construction of this secret tunnel, and each brick and tile was ordinary. Moreover, the fleeing people, apart from Huang Rong, had little martial arts cultivation, so there was no large scale Qi fluctuation, which hid them from the Demon Clan. Finally, they got past the blockade of the Demon Clan and escaped!

“Rong’er, what should we do next…” a woman in her 50s, who looked graceful and noble, asked calmly.

She was Liu Yuhan, Huang Shixiong’s wife.

Huang Rong thought for a moment then made a decision. “Auntie, there is a boat on the island. Let’s go south by boat.”

“Go south? Isn’t that getting farther and farther away from the Swordsmanship-seeking Mountain Range?” Liu Yuhan asked in confusion, “What are we going to do there?”

Huang Rong said, “Those monsters came at us menacingly. There must be many checkpoints along the way to the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect. If we can’t pass them, we will fall into their trap. So we’ll just go south, the opposite direction. 2,000 kilometers away from here is the Heavenly Sound Valley. In the Grading Meeting of the Sect, brother Ding Hao activated the ancient magical zither, and the Heavenly Sound Valley was indebted to him. If we go to them for shelter, they will definitely help us!”

Liu Yuhan nodded slightly and said, “That’s a good idea.”

Then it seemed that she suddenly realized something. She looked at Huang Rong quietly as if she saw her daughter for the first time. After a while, she said, “Rong’er, you have really grown up…”

Before she had finished her words, suddenly—

“Swordsmanship-seeking! Swordsmanship-seeking!”

The sound, like the roar of heaven and earth, came from the direction of the Swordsmanship-seeking Villa, which was burning in fire.

Then, there was a continuous sound of explosions. A bright light illuminated the land within a hundred kilometers radius, as if it were the bright sun in the dark night, making the land very brilliant.

That was the scene of martial artists sacrificing themselves.

Huang Rong was stunned and felt a sharp pain in her heart.

Tears rolled down her face. She knew that at that moment, she had lost her most precious family member.

“Dad, if you are a spirit in heaven, you’ll see that I have grown up. Sooner or later, I will find Senior Brother Ding Hao and ask him to avenge you… No demon who came to the villa tonight can escape death!”

Huang Rong swore silently in her heart.

Then she turned around and said in a low voice, “Everyone, come with me!”

The group of people, who were filled with grief and hatred, stepped with heavy footsteps and disappeared among the withered reeds covered by ice and snow.

That night, the roaring fire in the Swordsmanship-seeking Villa in the distance was engraved in their hearts forever.

The children, in particular, remembered this place where their parents and brothers died. There would be a day when they would come back and take revenge!

The ninth section of the West Journey to the Ancient Road turned out to be an underground world full of magma.

The magma with a very high temperature was rolling and boiling like a pot of boiling water, and it constantly bubbled. A mass of magma burst up, making a buzzing sound.

In the boiling magma, there were burned red rocks.

That was the only “road” on this Ancient Road.

Carrying Ji Yingqi on his back, Ding Hao unfolded the Qi shield, isolated from the heat that was powerful enough to instantly burn the experts at the Great Martial Mentor realm to ashes. Relying on the power of his physical body, Ding Hao jumped up and down among the towering rocks and continued to move forward.

It had been three days since he had come to this world.

He was about to reach the end of this Ancient Road.

“Boom!”

Suddenly, the magma burst out, and a more than 50-meter-long fish-shaped giant monster made of magma flew out of the magma. It opened its huge mouth and was about to swallow Ding Hao.

Ding Hao’s expression did not change.

In the past three days, he had already been used to such sudden attacks because this kind of magma monster had attacked Ding Hao several times.

“Hahaha!” Adorable, who was riding happily on Evil Moon’s back, spat out bubbles, which instantly covered the magma beast, and then sent it to Evil Moon’s mouth.

“F**k, I’m already full, why are you still sending them to me?”

As Evil Moon flapped its small wings, it lazily put out its pink claws and gently scratched them. The moment Adorable pricked the bubbles, it decomposed the giant magma beast and took out a fist-sized red crystal from the body and ate it.

These two pets cooperate flawlessly. Obviously, they had practiced this many times.

The giant magma monster was a strange creature, and there was nothing valuable in its whole body. Its flesh was too hot and sour to be eaten. Even the foodie, Evil Moon, was not interested in it. Only the crystal of fire property inside its body had some value, and it contained a large amount of Qi with fire element, which was very precious. The crystal was as valuable as a top-grade mysterious crystal.

Therefore, when they were attacked by the giant magma monster, Ding Hao would let these two pets cooperate to seize the crystals.

In the past few days, in addition to the ones eaten by Evil Moon and Adorable, they had collected about a thousand of this kind of crystal of pure fire property.

It was a smooth journey without too many twists and turns.

“There. The gate to the 10th section of the Ancient Road is ahead…”

Ding Hao saw a purple whirlpool door slowly flickering in the middle of the magmatic water in the distance.

Without hesitation, he moved his body to drive his legs and broke the rock pillar under his feet. Like a cannonball, he bounced up and dived into the purple whirlpool.

He felt weightless, as though he was traveling through a space-time gate.

The smell of blood came to Ding Hao, and it covered him in an instant.

With a “plop”, he seemed to fall into a pool. Ding Hao looked down and found that the scenery in front of him had changed a lot. It was not water that reached his ankle, but… it was red blood.

When he looked up, all he could see were bleeding bodies.

Endless blood flowed out from these corpses and formed a sea of blood on the ground.

These dead bodies were of different forms. Most of them were badly mutilated or were dismembered. There were too horrible to look at. There were bodies from the Human Clan and the Demon Clan, as well as all kinds of Surviving Species of the Untainted Land. They all died here.

The air was filled with a strong smell of blood.

The air was more like flowing blood.

Each time he breathed, it was as if he was inhaling and exhaling thick blood.

“How could this be? These corpses…” Ding Hao was shocked. “Did all the experts of the two clans who entered the West Journey to the Ancient Road die here?” he thought.

This guess frightened him.

Holding the rusted sword and the devil saber in his hand, Ding Hao was completely alert. He slowly approached and observed carefully. Soon, he found that those dead bodies lying on the ground were not his acquaintances, and he didn’t even have a little impression of them.

What was even weirder was that the clothes on these corpses were of an old style.

The robes and armors of this style were only worn by ancient people hundreds of thousands of years ago.

“Could it be… that these people have been dead for hundreds of thousands of years? No, their bodies are still warm and still bleeding. It’s impossible that hundreds of thousands of years have passed, and the blood in their bodies has not yet drained!”

Ding Hao was somewhat confused.

Ji Yingqi, lying on Ding Hao’s back, tried hard not to throw up.

It was the first time that the little girl had seen such a bloody scene. Corpses were piled up one by one. Looking around, there were all corpses, which covered the earth. Broken limbs and bones could be seen everywhere. It was just like the legendary hell.

“Is this really hell?

“A section of the Ancient Road?”

After careful observation, Ding Hao could finally confirm that the dead bodies on the ground were definitely not the experts of the two clans. This world was basically a world of dead bodies and blood. As for why these bodies had been bleeding for thousands of years, it could only be explained by the unreasonableness of the Ancient Road.

“Until now, every part of the West Journey to the Ancient Road was a strange cultivating environment, and it was meaningful.

“What is the meaning of the existence of this ‘hell’ section?”

Ding Hao stepped on the blood and walked on the ground.

Along the way, there were all kinds of horrible scenes.

There were headless corpses piled up into mountains. It was full of the odor of putrefaction. The cut around the neck was bleeding blood like a fountain…

There were also mountains that consisted of heads. All of them looked bitter, some of them had wide-open eyes, some looked fierce, some pleaded bitterly, and some gnashed their teeth… The expressions of these heads were different, but all of them made people shudder. There was a kind of eeriness that had been lasting for thousands of years, as if they would jump up and bite you in the next moment!

There were even piles of entrails, which were wriggling, and it was very bloody and horrible.

This was a world completely made up of various dead bodies. All kinds of unimaginable ways of death and all kinds of unimaginable tragedies could be seen in this world.

Even though Ding Hao had experienced countless battles before, including killing Surviving Species of the Untainted Land and killing scum of the Human Clan, and even though he got used to the bloody scene, he could not help fearing when he walked in this world for a long time.

Ji Yingqi simply closed her eyes. She could not bear to see the miserable scene in front of her again.

But this method did not seem to work.

Those scenes of misery not only could be seen, but also seemed to be sensed by her mind through the spirit. The scenes were like what she saw with her eyes. She gritted her teeth and persisted. She did not vomit. Not only did she not want to throw up on Ding Hao’s back, but she also did not want Ding Hao to spare any energy to take care of her.

However, Evil Moon, the Fat Cat, was not so reserved and it vomited on the spot.

“Ugh… It’s disgusting. I almost threw up the overnight meal in my stomach…” The Evil Cat bent its body and almost vomited up its bile. “I swear, I will never eat a dead body… F**k, why did I have to see such a disgusting thing? Little Chap Ding, put me in the storage ring!”

Ding Hao said disdainfully, “Don’t pretend. You want to take the opportunity to eat mysterious crystals in the storage ring, don’t you?”

Ding Hao guessed right about Fat Cat, who suddenly looked angry and said, “What do you mean? You should doubt my good character…”

“Hahaha!” The little dolphin was also disgusted by this bloody scene. It opened his mouth and spat bubbles one after another. In the end, it put itself in a bubble and closed its eyes tightly.

“What is the meaning of this section of the Ancient Road?

“To temper a martial artist’s spirit and will?”

Ding Hao ran the Mind Essential to keep his mind clear and calm. He then quickly walked into the world of corpses and a sea of blood.

Suddenly—

“Give me my head back…”

With a shrill shout, a headless body on the ground suddenly jumped up without warning and pounced on Ding Hao.
