Chapter 742 Entering the Final Divine Temple

“He killed a Half-step Demon Saint with a single saber strike?!”

“What kind of weapon could enable him to do this?”

Just a thought of that would be shocking enough.

After recollecting themselves after the shock, many people looked at the devil saber in Ding Hao’s hand with eager eyes. If they could get this weapon and activate it with the power of the Sage Realm, would they become invincible in the world? Would they be able to challenge even the god-level superiors?

However, they could not figure out how many times Ding Hao could activate such power, so nobody dared to make a move.

In the sky.

This strike consumed 70 to 80 percent of the flaming Qi in the Middle Dantian of Ding Hao’s chest. He had to manipulate the Hell Ice Qi in the Lower Dantian of his abdomen instantly. His general momentum had not been reduced, but it was impossible for him to activate the devil saber and launch another such world-shaking attack again.

He was very satisfied with the effect of this strike.

With one strike, he killed the wolf Demon Saint and awed all those that were present.

At this moment, all the experts had to admit Ding Hao’s status even if they had many other thoughts in their minds. He had already gained the qualification to stand on this square.

He slowly landed on the ground and carefully observed the surroundings with a blank expression on his face.

There were 16 figures in total, including eight from the Human Clan and eight from the Demon Clan.

This meant that although the general population of the Demon Clan outnumbered that of the Human Clan, the Human Clan was not inferior in terms of the number of top masters and was well able to compete with the Demon Clan. This was also one of the reasons why the Human Clan could still stand fast in this world after fighting so many holy wars.

Ding Hao did not see Uncle Tianshu in the crowd.

Instead, he saw two old acquaintances—the Black Demon Patriarch, who was an old enemy, and the mysterious handsome young man with a folding fan in his hand.

Ding Hao was unable to make out the strength of this handsome young man holding a folding fan. However, he knew that all people that could make their way to this square were those in the Sage Realm, and the strength of that young man was definitely not to be underestimated.

As expected, Ding Hao caught sight of the master mentioned by the giant man—Arnold in the crowd.

The master was a beautiful maiden with an extremely outstanding appearance. She wore a suit of scarlet armor, and her skin was as white as a translucent milky white jade. She gave off an inexplicable aura, and she was definitely a “Helen of Troy” in terms of either her bearing or her look. Her eyebrows tipped up into the hair near her temples, and she had a pair of beautiful eyes in which a ferocious evil spirit seemed to dwell. She was enveloped by a layer of faintly visible crimson mist, which was created by her killing intent and could devour numerous living creatures in an instant.

According to the legend, the blood and resentful souls of the dead would gather around the devil who had slaughtered millions of people, creating a Death Domain around the devil and making the devil look like an emperor in the netherworld.

The red mist around the beautiful maiden was the sign of the Death Domain.

This beautiful girl was obviously a ruthless and decisive killer.

“Judging from her strong murderous aura, I’m afraid that she has already killed thousands of living creatures… She looks so young, but I don’t know why there is such an overwhelming Death Domain around her.”

Ding Hao frowned while wondering.

Just then, the stunning maiden seemed to have sensed Ding Hao’s gaze. She turned her head, looked at Ding Hao with her fierce eyes, and curled her lips playfully. Her look was in no way friendly.

Ding Hao suddenly felt that the two light columns from her eyes were like two cold knives against his neck.

It was the first time Ding Hao felt such a ferocious glance.

After casting a glance at Ding Hao, the maiden looked away and fixed her eyes on the Final Divine Temple shining with silvery light. Obviously, the earth-shaking strike launched by Ding Hao just now did not have much impact on her. Perhaps she had unconsciously regarded him as one of the competitors for the Three Great Divine Artifacts.

Only then did Ding Hao notice that there was a little pink pig following the maiden.

The odd thing here was that the little pig was wearing a red band on its belly and a shining gold medal about the size of a child’s palm on its forehead. It was squinting and grunting leisurely, looking extremely relaxed, as if it didn’t care about the superiors around it at all.

Such a strange maiden.

Recalling the giant Arnold’s pleading, Ding Hao couldn’t help shaking his head. It seemed that this master of Arnold didn’t need any help at all.

Suddenly, a powerful energy wave surged up from the bottom of the silvery summit, turned into a rainbow, and landed on the square.

Another absolute superior had arrived.

In the sky, the mysterious, noble and cold voice that once sounded above the “Holy Battlefield” sounded again—

“The time has come. The gate of the divine temple will be opened and the Divine Artifacts will have their owners. All will have their own opportunities to be owners!”

After that, the sound faded away.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The entire silvery summit began to shake. The silvery light enveloping the final divine temple gradually disappeared, revealing the true appearance of this old-fashioned and magnificent temple. It was shaped like a huge silvery human head with lifelike facial expression. The wide open mouth of the human head was the gate of the divine temple. The light inside was dim, and it was as dark as the road to hell. It gave people a feeling that once they stepped into this gate like a giant open mouth, they would embark on a road of no return.

The scene was extremely strange.

However, no one hesitated to take action.

As soon as the gate of the divine temple opened, all the figures on the square turned into streams of light and entered the gate that looked like a human mouth.

Ding Hao was no exception.

Ding Hao just felt that everything in front of his eyes suddenly darkened the moment he entered the gate of the divine temple.

He was on full alert and did not dare to be careless, holding the rusted sword in his hand.

However, there was no energy wave around him. It was just that the light was a little dim. White and crystal clear stone pillars stood on both sides, supporting the dome of the main hall. The floor under his feet was uneven and felt like an undulating sea surface with depressions of varying depth formed by freezing. He did not know what material the floor was made of, but it was dark red in color and extremely hard.

As soon as he entered the hall, Ding Hao found that he was the only person there.

He didn’t know where the superiors entering the gate together with him had gone.

Looking up and observing carefully, he found that the space inside the main hall was extremely wide. There were undulating stony ripples on the inner surface of the dome above, and there were two holes with a diameter of over ten meters behind the top of the hall. The holes were dark and deep, leading to some unknown place.

Ding Hao let the Evil Moon, the black puppy, and the little butterfly out of the storage space.

“Achoo… What is this place? Is it the legendary Final Divine Temple? Why is it so spooky? Where are the Three Great Divine Artifacts?” The Evil Moon sneezed as he scanned the surroundings with his curious eyes, trying to find some treasures.

The black puppy and the little butterfly were affectionately clinging to Ding Hao’s shoulders.

Ding Hao slowed down his pace and walked toward the depths of the hall.

The light ahead was still dim.

The space in the depths of the hall was narrower, and the terrain was getting higher and higher. After they passed by two dark red stone pillars looking like stalactites, a very large round corridor appeared in front of them. The floor of the corridor was uneven and like a rippled water surface. About a hundred meters away, the corridor suddenly went downward at an angle of about 90 degrees into an unfathomable abyss.

“The Evil Moon is right. There is something evil here. It doesn’t feel as sacred and peaceful as the heavenly garden…”

Ding Hao was a little confused.

He hesitated for a moment and then plunged into the abyss.

The wind whistled by his ears, but there was no danger.

“Meow, wait for me, human pet. You are becoming more and more unconcerned about me now. You like the new and hate the old. I despise you.” The Evil Moon’s whiny voice came from above. Spreading its limbs and wagging its tail as if it were the rudder of a boat, the fat cat slowly floated down to follow Ding Hao.

Ding Hao did not manipulate his power to slow down the descent.

After a while, he reached the bottom of the corridor.

Ding Hao landed on the ground and took a careful look. He found that the surrounding walls were still dark red in color, but they appeared to be rougher and more uneven. These walls were even covered with some dark red stone spikes of varying length, looking extremely strange. This should be a very large space. He couldn’t see its edge at a glance. It looked like a naturally formed huge space at the heart of a mountain.

It was a strange place.

Ding Hao still didn’t feel any pressure. He spent about an hour searching every corner of this huge space, but he didn’t find any clues about the Divine Artifacts. Instead, he found hundreds of small passages on the dark red stone walls. They were all round passages zigzagging like mazes, leading to unknown places.

“Is this place the so-called Final Divine Temple?”

Ding Hao couldn’t help feeling that there was something missing.

When the little butterfly fluttered and hovered above Ding Hao’s head, its sixteen-color wings gave off a dreamy colorful light, illuminating the space within hundreds of meters and dispelling the surrounding dark shadows.

“Thank you, little butterfly,” Ding Hao said with a smile.

In the depths of this huge strange space, there was a huge winding passage with a diameter of about 100 meters and a round entrance. It was deep and led to somewhere unknown. Ding Hao stood in front of the passage and thought carefully for a while. The subconscious of the Mind Essential gave him a vague feeling that it was not necessarily the best way to choose, but compared with the hundreds of maze-like passages on the stone walls, it seemed to be a good choice.

Ding Hao thought about it and decided to activate the golden light column in his consciousness to inspect the road ahead with the magical sense of Clairvoyant Eyes.

Just then—

“Woof, woof, woof!”

The black puppy, who had been staying quiet for a long time, suddenly barked. It jumped off Ding Hao’s shoulder and ran to the right.

“Blackie, come back.” Ding Hao was taken aback. The environment here was complicated and the road was like a maze. Once it got lost, it would be very difficult to find it.

“Woof, woof, woof…” The little fellow ran a few steps forward, jumped back, bit Ding Hao’s boots, and tried to pull him.

Ding Hao froze for a moment and then suddenly understood what the little fellow meant.

“Blackie, do you want me to follow you?”

“Woof, woof!”

A thought struck Ding Hao. Did this little fellow find something? According to the legend, the “Three-headed Heavenly Hound” had magical power in treasure hunting and could see through the Nine Serenities. Although the black puppy lost its bloodline power due to premature birth, it inherited the Power of the Origin from its mother. Moreover, the black puppy itself was a little strange. Did it really activate some of its inherent abilities this time?
