Supreme Emperor of Swords

Chapter 859 - Empty Mountain Gate


Chapter 859 Empty Mountain Gate

Under the altar, Lei Tingchan was holding Nalan Chu’s and Nalan Youxia’s hands. Looking up and watching Ding Hao walking step by step to the altar, an extremely strange feeling suddenly arose in their hearts because Ding Hao’s figure was actually flickering slightly.

They felt that the void had become unstable when Ding Hao was approaching the altar as if the images on the old TV were flashing, which could disappear at any time. Especially when Ding Hao stepped on the top of the altar, their feeling of the flickering images got stronger.

Apparently, Ding Hao was not aware of it at all.

“Senior Brother Ding, watch out!” Lei Tingchan shouted, trying to warn Ding Hao.

However, at that moment, the flashing images suddenly shrank frantically as if they were going to suppress everything to the only point. Then with a swoosh, Ding Hao disappeared on the silver altar with the dark blue starlight.

“What’s going on?”

Lei Tingchan was shocked. She flashed to the altar but could not sense any energy fluctuations, as if the flashing images were just an illusion. However, Ding Hao completely disappeared.

“Was it… a teleportation formation? Where has Senior Brother Ding been teleported to?”

Lei Tingchan frowned slightly and observed the silver altar carefully.

Ding Hao only felt that the dark blue starlight all over the sky was moving faster and faster. In the end, with his strength and powerful Divine Senses, he began to feel dizzy and could hardly bear it.

He immediately closed his eyes, lowered his head, and stopped watching it.

After a while, Ding Hao was slightly recovered, so he opened his eyes again.

Then, he stood there as if he had been struck by lightning.

The dark space and the dark blue lights all over the sky were gone. The stone bridge, the whistling chilly wind and the astral wind were all gone. Lei Tingchan, Nalan Chu and Nalan Youxia were also gone. What appeared in front of Ding Hao was the bright sunshine, the blue sky, the white clouds, the flying birds, and… the vast forest. When the wind blew, the surging waves swept as if the sea was singing.

Ding Hao found himself in a completely strange place.

It was a place that Ding Hao had never seen before.

After looking around, he was so shocked that his mouth was wide open.

The fresh air came to him. It was definitely not the kind of air filled with poisonous miasma or the air that smelled of dampness and mildew in the ruins of the ancient sect. It was not an illusion.

He lowered his head and found that he was still standing on a silver altar, but now it was hundreds or thousands of times larger than the one in the dark space. The altar now was like a sacred silver peak of thousands of meters high, standing between heaven and earth.

What shocked Ding Hao more was that within a radius of more than 50 miles around the sacred huge altar, there were numerous martial houses, palaces, giant towers, squares, statues, and beautiful peaks floating in the void.

It was so beautiful that he felt that he was in the legendary wonderland.

It was a complete mountain gate. The floating peaks were in all sizes, with colorful pavilions and carved towers on them. The wooden bridges connected different floating peaks and the white waterfalls poured down. Cranes, white eagles and various other fairy birds roamed with a lingering cry of joy.

Even the Primeval Fairy Butterflies were dancing gracefully.

The whole mountain gate was surrounded by a kind of quiet and peaceful aura.

The charm of this place proved that it was definitely a rare blessed land. The Spiritual Qi was even denser than any place on the Land of Divine Grace. The fresh air made Ding Hao feel as if every cell in his whole body was cheering.

What was even more incredible was that there was no one in this huge and complete mountain gate.

Ding Hao released his Divine Senses which flowed like a tide to search around the entire mountain gate. He was sure that there was no one there except those fairy birds in the sky, the rare animals on the ground, and the strange fish in the water.

It was an empty blessed land as if it was waiting for its master.

After walking through the whole mountain gate again, Ding Hao was sure that there was no one here. There were not even any traces of human activities. Everything was new as if such a huge mountain gate was naturally formed yesterday.

Waterfalls, rivers, floating peaks, carved towers, chains, and sculptures were everywhere.

Walking through the mountain gate, Ding Hao felt as if he were walking in the heavenly palaces of the immortal land.

He found that the layout of the mountain gate was very reasonable because it had distinct functional areas. There were areas with flourishing herbs, areas with abundant Spiritual Qi, the so-called Square of Military Affairs, secret rooms and residences for cultivation, and even areas for casting weapons and armors.

Compared with where Ding Hao was now, even the mountain gates of super sects like the Blue Cloud Sect and the Extermination Swordsmanship Sect on the Land of Infinity were inferior to this blessed land.

Rare birds and rare animals roamed around. They were not afraid of strangers at all. Several nine-colored deer even curiously gathered around Ding Hao and followed him as if they were his tails.

The colorful Primeval Fairy Butterflies fluttered in the air between the peaks and waterfalls where water vapor spread around. The small rainbows appeared in the sky, like rainbows leading to mysterious places.

Looking down from the sky, one could see something circular. It was a majestic and magical mountain gate that looked like a huge plate of Eight Trigrams. With the sacred huge white altar in the center, it was divided into eight different parts and radiated out in all directions. Floating mountains of various sizes and the mountain ridges on the ground formed a three-dimensional blessed land.

Those floating peaks were slowly rotating with the sacred huge white altar in the center, like the moon and the stars orbiting around the sun. The strange power contained was like the reincarnation of yin and yang, almost stirring up the power of heaven and earth within a few hundred miles. The powers formed a strange energy shield that enveloped the whole mountain gate.

“Who on earth built such an amazing blessed land? Why didn’t he make use of it after it was constructed?” Ding Hao was confused.

As he was walking through the magical mountain gate, he only felt refreshed.

“Why do all these statues here only have bodies? Why are the expressions on the faces vague? Where are their ears, eyes, lips, noses and tongues?”

In the whole mountain gate, there were at least hundreds of magnificent statues of different sizes. The parts below the heads were shapely and perfectly proportioned as if they were alive. What cunning workmanship! It seemed that a breeze could flutter the clothes of these statues. However, their faces were blurred, without ears, eyes, lips, noses or tongues.

Ding Hao had walked through the whole mountain gate.

He saw all sorts of divine treasures in the eight areas.

In the area of refining elixir, there were magical herbs and precious medicine which had existed for countless years in the herb garden. Hundreds of quality Elixir Furnaces of different shapes and sizes were placed in the Elixir Palace. Even the Elixir Furnace that was regarded as the sub-Divine Artifact was there. The flame burning inside was vigorous, but the rare and weird flame was swaying silently.

In the library of the casting area, thousands of weapons that had been refined were displayed. Knives, forks, swords, and halberds were displayed, all of which were made of rare divine materials. Even the worst of them was a medium-grade Precious Weapon, not to mention that there were countless top-grade Precious Weapons.

In the mines of the mining area, Ding Hao found that all kinds of square and huge ores were neatly piled up in the square and were sorted extremely neatly. The ores were marked with their attributes and functions respectively and even the refining methods were described.

In short, except for people, everything else that should be in this magical mountain gate was already there.

As long as there were enough cultivators to operate this empty mountain gate, it wouldn’t take long for a strong sect to come into being.

Ding Hao returned to the starting point -the huge silver altar.

Looking around, he felt that he was in a dream.

From all aspects, a blessed land that contained countless divine treasures shouldn’t have been abandoned. It was truly hard to imagine why the forces that built the blessed land had actually abandoned it.

For Ding Hao, there were still three questions that needed to be figured out.

“Where am I?

“Why have I been teleported here?

“How should I leave here?”

Ding Hao still wanted to go back to the ruins of the ancient sect. After all, Nalan Chu, Nalan Youxia, and Lei Tingchan were still waiting for him. Once they found out that he was missing, they would be very worried.

“Hahaha, are you anxious?” A lazy teasing voice suddenly sounded.

With a silver flash, the Sky-fleeing Stone Key appeared in front of Ding Hao. It shone brightly and turned into a silver virtual image of a five- or six-year-old fat boy. He was wearing a red band on his belly and had a small braid. He looked portly, grinning foolishly at Ding Hao.

It was the human form into which the Sky-fleeing Stone Key transformed.

It was the first time that the weird Sky-fleeing Stone Key had done this.

However, Ding Hao didn’t pay much attention to it. Instead, he was keenly aware of its implication. After being stunned for a while, he said, “Do you know where I am now?”

“Of course, I know.” The fat boy with a red band on his belly crossed his legs in the air and lied down in an inverting and skewing manner, saying, “Two fools have gone through so much trouble to come here and made it a shelter for their children. It has existed for thousands of years, and today you are the first person to come here.”

“Did you bring me here?” Ding Hao seemed to have realized something.

There was no inscription on the small altar in the ruins of the ancient sect, and he didn’t release his power to activate anything. How was he transmitted here? The only explanation was that the Sky-fleeing Stone Key had teleported him here with its teleportation ability.

“Haha, bingo! You are right,” the fat boy with a red band on his belly said with a smile.

Its tone was a little familiar to Ding Hao.

“Why did you bring me here?” Ding Hao asked again.
