Chapter 451 Getting Magic Skills
“This black little snake is not ordinary,” Ding Hao thought. He felt from it a pressure not lesser than that of the giant ape with three heads and six arms. “If I’m right, it is also an ominous beast with some magic skills.”
“How did it find me?” Ding Hao thought.
Ding Hao looked at the completely collapsed mountain bellow, and suddenly realized that in the past ten days, he had been refining huge weapons and forgot to keep the Qi-holding formation on the stone wall of the cave work, which might have allowed Qi to permeate out of the wall. That explained why the little snake found him.
But…
He had a strange smile on his face.
“Good timing.”
“Now that my strength is soaring, I could use this little snake to try my hand,” Ding Hao thought.
“If you want the ‘Jade in the Stone,’ come and get it.” Ding Hao opened his palms, and a giant, ten meters long white sword appeared in his hands. That sword was named “Shang Ye” by Ding Hao, and it was one of the long swords made from Giant White Bone. The thick and plain sword weighted eight kilograms and was the heaviest among them.
“Courting Death, stupid human!” The black snake hissed. Its slender body writhed, then it immediately went after Ding Hao, biting Ding Hao his neck with its pale fangs.
Ding Hao held “Shang Ye” in front of his chest and the meter-wide sword blade agilely warded off the attack.
“Jingle!”
With the jingling sound of the sword, the little black snake was zapped away.
“Haha, nothing more than this.” Ding Hao laughed out loud. He executed the “Transverse Cut,” the first movement of the “Seven Black Cut.” It seemed simple, but it contained a powerful strength.
Boom!
The little black snake was too late dodging and was cut at the waist.
“Ah…” It screamed. If it weren’t for its soft body and the scale armor, the cut might have killed it.
Ding Hao followed it and backhanded it with the third cut method of the “Seven Black Cut, ” called “Inverse Cut.”
Boom!
The little black snake was hit again.
Ding Hao felt that he could gradually grasp the timing, and every simple move was extremely fast. Moreover, the powerful physical strength made him wield the eight-kilogram sword as if he were waving a grass stem. His inexhaustible power and fast speed weren’t the same as twenty days before, which filled him with delight.
“Ah…!” The little black snake screamed again.
In a flash, it was cut twice. It only felt that all its bones were about to be fractured.
Stuck by Ding Hao’s one by one cut, it struggled desperately. Suddenly it writhed and the next moment it reappeared one kilometer away. Its golden and emotionless eyes stared at Ding Hao in amazement. It was a bit confused, not knowing why such human, with less energy in his body than it could burst out such horrible strength and completely suppress it.
Ding Hao was stunned for a moment, and a hint of joy emerged from the corners of his mouth.
“Move one kilometer away in a flash?”
“Is that a magic skill?”
“There must be a ‘Heaven-Earth Blood Bone’ in its body,” Ding Hao thought.
That was a very interesting magic skill. In a flash, without any signs, nor a Qi flow, it could move a kilometer away; even opponents who were of two or three realms higher would be unable to notice nor stop it. Whether the skill was used for escape or attack, it was very interesting and useful.
It was similar to “Invincible Being,” an Invincible Fighting Method, also the first of the twelve movements of “Fight Essential.” If they were combined, they would have a great lethality.
“I could use the skill.” Ding Hao made up his mind and began to find a way to slay the black snake.
Opposite him.
The black snake did not give up, despite being at a disadvantage in the fight. Out of its confidence on its magic skill, it coiled and waited for the opportunity.
Ding Hao slowly took a white jade out from his chest and slightly waved it. He said with a smile, “Don’t you want the “Jade in a Stone”? Here, come here and get it, haha. This is a ‘Yin Yang Jade in a Stone,’ one of the top four treasures…”
The little black snake had greedy eyes.
That was indeed the aura of the “Jade in a Stone.”
It sensed clearly.
Its body trembled slightly. Several times, it wanted to act at once, but its last trace of reason restrained it.
Seeing that, Ding Hao was even more assured. He placed the jade near his mouth and said, “What? You don’t dare to come and get it? Okay, then I’ll swallow and absorb it…” After saying that, he threw lightly into the air; it was about to fall inside his mouth.
The little black snake went crazy.
Greed conquered reason. It instantly appeared in front of Ding Hao, as if it had always been there. It opened its scarlet mouth and pecked at the shining jade. Then it felt the cold and hard jade…
“I got it?!”
The little black snake thought. It was overjoyed and relieved.
Just at that time—
“King beneath the Heavens!” Ding Hao’s clear voice sounded.
The little black snake trembled in an instant. An unbelievable coercion, like the advent of a superior at the Demon Royal realm, overwhelmed it and made it mindless. The coercion made him stay still in midair in a split second.
That second was enough for Ding Hao.
In that second, the rusted sword which had been in his hand, turned into Sword Intent, and flashed in the air.
The black snake appeared a thousand meters away in an instant. Its golden motionless eyes shined in disbelief. It did not use its magical skill to escape again, because it was late. A sword mark appeared on its neck, then its body and its head were separated…
It turned out that just then, although it realized the attack and performed the magical skill to escape one kilometer away, it had already been cut off by Ding Hao.
The black snake was cut into halves and struggled frantically. Its strong vitality kept it alive for a while.
“Fortunately, the ‘King beneath the Heavens,’ the second movement of Fight Essential, not only works on humans, but also on demons and ferocious beasts. If it weren’t for the power at the Demon Royal realm erupting at that instant, it would have been hard to deal with its magical skill. That black snake was really good at escaping…”
Without hesitation, Ding Hao turned into flowing light and approached the snake. With the rusted sword, he cut its body into five segments. The Heaven Fire Qi came through Heaven Fire quenched by the “Yin Yang Jade in the Stone” and appeared in red that time. It gushed out from Ding Hao’s palm, wrapping the snake’s broken body, and converting it.
After a while, the black snake finally quieted down and became motionless.
It was thoroughly dead.
Ding Hao’s powerful Divine Awareness sensed and found a lustrous bone just twenty-seven centimeters below the snake’s head. It was indeed the black Heaven-Earth Blood Bone. After careful observation, he found that the bone contained more subtle red patterns than the bone from the ape with three heads and six arms.
Without hesitation, Ding Hao immediately assimilated the Heaven-Earth Blood Bone with his Heaven Fire Qi, and placed it inside his Qi Seed.
He mastered another magical skill.
Ding Hao suddenly had an impulse to hunt super Ominous Beasts in the “Sage Battlefield” and take their “Heaven-Earth Blood Bones” to master different kinds of magic skills, each of which would be top combat techniques.
After all that, Ding Hao collected the body of the little black snake.
The black snake scales were extremely hard and could be refined into magical weapons and armors. They couldn’t be cut off by “Shang Ye” the giant sword. The snake meat contained endless energy, which was comparable to top class mysterious crystals. No matter if it was used to refine elixirs or to be sold, it was valuable. The snake head, fangs and venom could also be used to make weapons.
That black snake was a treasure.
It could be regarded as a dominator. It had survived in the “Sage Battlefield” for who knows how many thousands of years. Its Heaven-Earth Blood Bone had just formed. However, its greed ultimately killed it.
“If it weren’t for this rusted sword, it would have been impossible to kill the black snake.”
Ding Hao thought while looking down at the rusty long sword in his hand.
The rusty sword was picked up from the dump by him. So far, Ding Hao had not figured out its true grade. Previously, the rusted sword was fully covered with rust. In the first five academies competition, Ding Hao was wounded and his blood washed the sword blade. Thanks to that, some rust fell off the five-centimeter-long sword and the crystal clear sword blade was revealed. It was hard to tell what it was made of. There was no change after injecting Qi into it.
But there was one thing for sure, that short crystal clear blade was indestructible, and it was sharper than many magical or precious weapons.
It was with that short sword edge that Ding Hao had been able to cut the black snake.
“Master Qi Qingshan, Saber Master, and Sword Master all said that this rusted sword was a treasure. Unfortunately, with my current strength, I cannot fully use its power, nor restore its original appearance. I can only figure this out slowly…” Ding Hao thought.
Ding Hao slowly put away the rusted sword.
“Next, it’s time to find my partners. We entered the Sage Battlefield from the same rift of time and space. Although we entered sequentially, we shouldn’t be too far away, right?” Ding Hao thought. There were also stars, moon and sun in the Sage Battlefield. It was a world all on its own. He chose a direction and flew towards the east.
Since his strength had been greatly increased, he was no longer afraid of the alien species in the sky, and could fly freely in the air.
Along the way, Ding Hao had various encounters.
Once he was attacked by a group of golden-crowned dragons. They battled for a day and a night; bathed in blood, he was almost torn by the king of the dragons. Fortunately, Ding Hao won the battle. With the “Shang Ye” sword, he cut the giant King of dragons into halves. Hundreds of dragons escaped in panic.
Moreover, Ding Hao obtained a Heaven-Earth Blood Bone from the dragon king’s body.
