Chapter 116 The Secular World
On that day, Ding Hao disappeared between heaven and earth with Evil Moon and the secret books.
Even the people of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, including Ding Hao’s relatives and friends, did not know where they had gone to travel.
It was as if they disappeared from this world, not appearing in the eyes of the world for a long time.
…
Ning Province, which used to be ranked third in the Northern Region and was now ranked fourth, was rich in resources and covered a wide area. There were many geniuses and many martial artists.
There was an ancient town at the junction of Ning Province and Green Province.
This town faced the forest with its back to the mountain range. It was a remote place with a small population of only a thousand people. It was called Scenic Rain Town.
At dawn, most of the people in the town would come to the house of the only Martial Sage Realm expert, whom people called Elder Wu, in the town. They cultivated at the foot of the mountain and followed his instructions.
The sunlight shone down in the morning, full of vitality, shining on the crowd. Cries of the market traders rose and fell, creating a peaceful scene.
Elder Wu had quite a high cultivation level. Adding that he was very kind, he often guided the people of Scenic Rain Town to practice magical powers and combat skills, refined their physical bodies, taught them combat skills, or told them about his experiences.
There were different kinds of people who cultivated with Elder Wu. The youngest was only four or five years old, while the oldest was already 30 or 40 years old.
“By the way, I was just like you. When I was a kid, I had the chance to see a person from the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, the top sect today. At that time…” At the end of the day, after Elder Wu guided some combat skills in the crowd, he began to talk about his experience.
The eyes of almost everyone from Scenic Rain Town lit up as they listened attentively to Elder Wu’s narration. From time to time, a few youths would ask questions.
However, there was a figure among these people who were quietly sitting cross-legged and training at all times.
Circles of Qi of the five elements rose from his body and swirled around him, absorbing the Spiritual Qi of the tides between heaven and earth. In addition, in the sunlight, he seemed to be wearing a colorful coat, which was quite gorgeous.
It was hard to tell the age of the man who was cultivating. He seemed to be 20 or 30 years old. His hair was casually scattered on his shoulders, and he looked a little unkempt with his face unshaven. However, his deep eyes were particularly clear and calm. Although the crowd was very noisy beside him, it did not affect him at all.
On his leg, there was a gray, fat cat snoring. It seemed to be sleeping. Occasionally, it would open its eyes and look around in boredom. Then, it would close its eyes and continue to sleep as if nothing could attract its attention.
“Uncle Ding, why don’t you listen to Elder Wu’s story? The story he told is very beautiful. How nice it would be if I could become one of those people from the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect in his words…” A tender voice came.
In front of the person who was practicing hard, a cute child suddenly came over, raised his head slightly, and talked to the man in a childish voice.
This man called Uncle Ding was not from Scenic Rain Town. It was Ding Hao, the Highest Elder of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, who had suddenly disappeared from the public’s sight some time ago.
The gray cat was naturally the Demon King, Evil Moon.
After leaving the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect this time, Ding Hao traveled around the world and practiced the cultivation method.
In order to completely experience the mortal world, he sealed his cultivation and started from the Martial Disciple Realm as an ordinary person. He mastered the purest power of the five elements in each realm and then turned it into the power of the Mysterious Fighting Method to cultivate stage by stage.
He had been in Scenic Rain Town for a month. Although it was Ning Province, it was remote, so few outsiders came here. Therefore, when Ding Hao first came here, he attracted the attention of many people in Scenic Rain Town. It did not take long for the people in the town to know that there was such a weirdo with a gray Fat Cat.
Ding Hao would climb the mountain every few days. Sometimes, he would go up the mountain for a whole day. No one knew what he had done there. Besides that, he had been cultivating all day long. He liked to watch people cultivate or watch the waterfalls pouring down from the mountain. He was like an old man, unpredictable.
However, because Ding Hao was gentle and did not do anything out of line, he soon got along with some people in the town. Many people even occasionally joked with him. They would ask questions like why he came here. Was it because he was abandoned by his favorite girl?
As for the gray cat he brought, it slept all day long and didn’t have the intelligence of an ordinary cat. Although it was a little strange, it didn’t attract the attention of others.
Ding Hao stopped his cultivation and looked at the little boy in front of him. He reached out to pick him up and put him on the other side. He pricked the boy with his beard and said with a smile, “If you want to become a member of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, you need to practice hard and become stronger. In this way, you can achieve your dream!”
After playing with Ding Hao for a while, the child in his arms clenched his fists and nodded firmly. “Hahaha, alas, Uncle Ding, don’t prick me. It’s itchy… You’re right. I still need to practice hard. As long as I’m strong enough, I can become a disciple of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect…”
“Since you know that, then practice hard. I will practice with you…” Ding Hao said with a smile and began to practice with the child who began to sit cross-legged and pretend to be strong.
…
In the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect.
Ding Chunqiu stood at the top of the mountain and looked into the distance. The strong wind whistled over, making his robe flutter.
“The world has changed. It looks peaceful, but undercurrents are surging without end…”
Ding Chunqiu looked at the cloudy sky and murmured, “I wonder how far my father has re-cultivated the Mysterious Fighting Method after traveling in the human world. Can he make it in time for that day…”
“Sect Leader!”
A black shadow suddenly appeared behind him, half-kneeling there with a respectful expression.
Ding Chunqiu did not turn around. He continued to stand there and said, “What is it?”
The man reported, “We have almost done what the Highest Elder ordered before he left. Now our sect and the God’s Palace have begun to contact the Primordial World through the Frozen Peak. We have also sent a lot of people to support them, including the Mad Saber Elder Zhang and the Sword God Elder Fang. According to the spies’ reports, the situation there is not very optimistic, but there will be no crisis for the time being, and Ding Tong has never shown up…”
Ding Chunqiu nodded and said in a calm tone, “I see. Very well. Father said that the alliance of clans in the Primordial World is resisting the invasion of the dark army. Although they can resist it for the time being and things have reached a certain balance, it will be broken when Ding Tong takes action. Now we can only take action first… Go on!”
“In addition to our Swordsmanship-seeking Sect and the God’s Palace, some of the forces of the White-Robed Divine Palace have also begun to move to the Primordial World. It seems that they are looking for Mu Tianyang, the White-Robed Emperor, to jointly fight against the dark force with him. Their Military Counselor, Qing Long, is the leader of this force…” The man continued to report.
“The White-Robed Divine Palace? Military Counselor Qing Long?
“Well, although the cultivation of the Military Counselor, Qing Long, is not high, he is extremely intelligent and has great wisdom. With his assistance, it will be of great help to fight against the dark force. You will immediately send someone to the White-Robed Divine Palace in the Central Continent and tell them that the White-Robed Emperor is in the territory of the Yu Tribe in the Primordial World. As long as they pass through the Frozen Peak, they can reach the Yu Region. Also, tell them about the situation of the White-Robed Emperor there…”
“Yes, Sect Leader!”
After Ding Chunqiu gave the order, the man disappeared.
…
In the Heaven Path world, as the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, the God’s Palace, and the White-Robed Divine Palace began to take action, this continent, which had continuous small disputes, was finally no longer peaceful.
Although there was no change on the surface, some high-level or well-informed martial artists of various sects had received the news about the three forces taking action. Although they didn’t know where the three forces were going, they realized that things were not simple.
For a moment, the tense atmosphere filled the Heaven Path world.
At the same time, all kinds of rumors, whether they were true or not, spread throughout every corner of the continent like a plague. Even some relatively remote places had received such rumors.
“I heard that the three major forces have found a new continent. This time, they are going to explore that place and get a territory. Tut-tut, if they succeed, maybe the martial artists of our continent can expand our forces!”
“Nonsense. Who said they were going to take over the territory? Have you forgotten the great being behind the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect? That man has always advocated peace, and the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect has always been aloof from worldly affairs. Even if they find a new continent, do you think the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect would send their men to conquer it?”
“Then tell me, what are they up to by leaving…”
“Hee hee, you shouldn’t randomly talk about the things you don’t know. I heard that there are some evil beings there. Therefore, the three great forces are going to exterminate those evil beings…”
“What you said is really possible…”
“It turns out that you’ve also heard of this news. I’ve got the same news. It’s said that those evil beings wanted to invade our Heaven Path world. In the beginning, Imperator Ding noticed it, so he gathered the three major forces to destroy them together…”
…
Unknowingly, a few more years had passed.
During this period, not only were the various rumors not restrained, they grew even stronger.
The reason was that the three forces sent more and more people for reinforcements.
Vaguely, some martial artists who thought that the three forces had discovered a new continent and gone to seek territory finally found that the three forces were suppressing some evil beings. However, a few years later, a big event suddenly happened on the continent, which broke the peace that had lasted for thousands of years as a war was about to break out.
