Supreme Emperor of Swords

Chapter 1171 Half of the Quota

As for how his parents spotted Earth, the Human Path, how they sent him to the Land of Infinity, and why they finally chose to stay on the Human Path, Ding Hao did not ask them these questions.

He believed that his parents had their own reasons for making such a decision.

There were many things that should be buried in the wind and never be mentioned.

At the time of departure, Ding Hao simply left the little chubby boy, the Sky-fleeing Stone Key. It couldn’t come in handy for the time being. It had been with Ding Shengtan and his wife for a long time, so it had some feelings for them.

The couple wanted to live in seclusion in the city, which might be one of the reasons why they chose to stay on Earth.

In the next half a day, Ding Hao played two computer games with his parents and then walked around. The streets were bustling, but the noisy world was full of vitality. After the collapse of the six paths, the creatures on Earth could not cultivate, but they developed in a different way. The technology and machinery here were developed, but the creatures here could not compete with the masters of the Heaven Path world. Moreover, the area here was too small. If a single Semi God Realm Master descended on Earth, he would be invincible in the world, which would make those countries with great military power at a loss for what to do.

Thankfully, this world was not connected to the Heaven Path.

Otherwise, it would be a disaster for all the living creatures on Earth.

Moreover, because it was impossible to cultivate on Earth, the Qi in a martial artist’s body would reduce with time. With Ding Hao’s current strength, he could seal the essence of his body so that his strength would not weaken. But he couldn’t improve his strength through cultivation. Because of this, the creatures of the Heaven Path might not have much interest in Earth.

Before dark, Xiao Xiaoxiao went home from school and came to Ding Hao again.

With Ding Hao’s current strength and temperament, he had charmed countless women even in the world of the Heaven Path. A girl like Xiao Xiaoxiao, who was his childhood sweetheart, could not resist his charm at all. She already had feelings for him in her heart, and now she was completely obsessed with him.

Ding Hao didn’t want the young girl to be troubled by love. He secretly sent a mysterious elixir into her body to improve her constitution and wisdom. After having dinner with Ding Shengtan, Yu Qingcheng, and Xiao Xiaoxiao’s family, Ding Hao chose to leave that night.

He could now basically control the Heavenly Samsara Disc. The light gate shone as he said goodbye to his parents and then waved to leave.

…

In the Land of Divine Grace.

Within Ocean Forest’s territory.

A year had already passed.

Ding Hao stepped out of the light gate. The moment he appeared in the Immortal Music Adobe of the Mountain Gate of Fortune, he felt that the Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth around him was much richer than before. For martial artists, practicing in such an environment was like wandering in the sea of Spiritual Qi, and their cultivation could be improved at every moment.

Ding Hao walked out of the Immortal Music Adobe.

“Greetings, Master. Are you now out of seclusion?” Two disciples of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect stood at the gate of the cave. When they saw Ding Hao coming out, they were very surprised and quickly greeted him. They were both among the two hundred nominal disciples received by Ding Hao, and they addressed him as Master.

Ding Hao nodded and looked up at the sky. His face changed slightly.

“The tides of the Spiritual Qi between heaven and earth are too powerful. Although the Spiritual Qi is still far from reaching the top, it’s enough to hold the appearance of a real Celestial Realm Master…” Ding Hao thought to himself. For those geniuses whose strength had been suppressed at the Completion phase of the nine-apertured God Realm, the opportunity had come. They could try to go through the Heaven Disaster and reach the Celestial Realm.

Ding Hao’s strength had long been accumulated to the Completion of the dual meridian nine-apertured God Realm. At this time, he only needed a simple move to remove the suppression on his cultivation and he could instantly go through the Heaven Disaster to reach the Celestial Realm. With his constitution of Saintly Being of Saber and Sword, he even did not need to go through the Heaven Disaster.

As soon as he reach the Celestial Realm, he would instantly surpass the masters of all eras and create a new myth of martial arts.

This was a type of glory, as well as a crazily rapid increase in strength. Presently, no power in the entire world was capable of going against an immortal.

In the eyes of countless supreme beings, this was the only opportunity. If they missed it, then they couldn’t get it again. While there would be thousands of competitors, only a single person could make it.

Ding Hao looked up at the sky full of surging Spiritual Qi, thought for a moment, and did not immediately break through to the Celestial Realm.

“At present, the tides of Spiritual Qi between heaven and earth have not yet reached the real maximum. Although I can reach the Celestial Realm by going through God’s tests at this time, it will restrict my future cultivation in the Immortal Realm. After all, the Spiritual Qi is not completely abundant. If I reach the Immortal Realm now, I’ll appear to be congenitally deficient with insufficient strength, and I will not be able to reach the peak in the end. I will basically have no hope of achieving eternal life.

“I still need to wait.”

Ding Hao made a choice.

But at this moment, there was a change of a strange power between heaven and earth. The thunderclouds surged, and the rules of heaven and earth were condensing.

Ding Hao flashed and instantly came to the sky. His Seven Star-shaped Eyes of Fate flashed with divine light. He saw through the Ninth Heaven and the vast land and saw the endless scenes in the distance.

“Someone is going through God’s tests. It’s the Immortal Disaster!”

A strange look appeared on Ding Hao’s face as he smiled. It seemed that some people finally couldn’t help but take that step eagerly.

“That will be nice.

“Those people can just go through God’s tests. I’d love to see how the world will change and if it can draw out the Devil from the darkness.”

…

For a time, the world was in turmoil.

In less than a month, five or six people had tried to go through God’s tests in succession in the Land of Infinity and the Land of Divine Grace.

This was a very long process.

The rolling thunderclouds condensed between heaven and earth, covering the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands with the testee as the center. Within hundreds of thousands of miles, thunderclouds were rolling. It was like the destruction of the world. The majestic figure sat high above the Ninth Heaven, resisting the power of the Heaven Disaster. He really stood at the peak of martial arts, making all the creatures within millions of miles tremble and worship.

“Patriarch Silvermoon of the Demon Clan failed his tests. He was killed by the lightning clouds, and his soul was destroyed….”

Some people witnessed this scene with their own eyes.

This was the first person to go through God’s tests, and he died. The patriarch of the Silvermoon Tribe was a senior of the Demon Clan who had reached the Completion of the God Realm decades ago. He was determined to go through God’s tests this time, but he didn’t expect the Heaven Disaster to be so horrible. He held on for a full month in the thunderclouds, but he was still eventually destroyed by the disaster.

It was too late for the experts from the Silvermoon Tribe to save him. In the end, they managed to pick up a piece of his bone, and the entire Silvermoon Tribe sank into grief.

It was not that easy to survive the Immortal Disaster.

Later, there was news that almost all of the God Realm Supreme Masters who had chosen to go through God’s tests had died. Several powerful Demon Clan masters at the Completion of the God Realm had survived the Heaven Disaster after failing God’s tests, but their vital Qi had been greatly damaged. It was said that they had died within less than a month after returning to their tribes.

When this news was released, all sides were shocked.

“So many masters at the Completion of the God Realm chose to go through God’s tests. I guess they have seen the opportunity, but in the end, they died. Could it be that they were mistaken?”

“They were probably not mistaken. The Immortal Disaster hasn’t appeared for countless years. Even though the fortuitous encounter has arrived, it isn’t so easy to go through the tests. The experts that chose to do it were fighting for that one and only fortuitous encounter. Unfortunately, they weren’t able to seize it. Firstly, their strengths weren’t sufficient, and secondly, their Karmic Luck wasn’t enough. They forcefully tried to seize the will of the heavens. In the end, they still perished!”

“If you aren’t strong enough, you can’t pass God’s tests!”

“Do you think that Ding Hao has made it? With an invincible posture, the Saber and Sword Addict has ruled the world for more than 60 years. Now his strength should be world-shaking. Moreover, he has been invincible in the world when he was less than 100 years old, and he has enough Karmic Luck. Why haven’t we seen him go through God’s tests?”

“It’s hard to tell. Maybe Ding Hao has already been a Human Immortal long ago.”

“I think it’s because Ding Hao has suppressed the world for too long and offended too many people that he doesn’t dare to undergo the Immortal Disaster easily. Once he fails, the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect will lose his protection and become the target of public criticism. All the major forces in the world will work together to crush the sect and eliminate it…”

All sorts of rumors were spreading in the world of the Heaven Path.

...

Many people realized that this was the opportunity. A storm was finally about to erupt, and no one was able to stop it.

The immortal fate had come. Although all the people who had tried to go through God’s tests before had failed, sooner or later, some people would try to break through to the Celestial Realm. Once someone succeeded in reaching that realm, the world would undergo great changes.

As expected, someone else chose to undergo the Immortal Disaster.

The thunderclouds rumbled, shaking heaven and earth, drawing the attention of all sides.

However, the God Realm Supreme Master still died in the end and was turned into ashes by the Lightning Disaster.

All the people of the force of the God Realm Supreme Master were sad and in constant panic. Without the strongest expert’s protection, this force was destined to decline and would become a vassal in this world where the strong were respected.

However, the cruel ending did not stop other people from trying.

In less than a year, dozens of people chose to go through God’s tests one after another. Some people even chose the blessed land where the Spiritual Meridians gathered to set up the incredible magic formation. They used the power of the Heaven and Earth Tactical Deployment to resist the Immortal Disaster. Although they had made all kinds of preparations, they still failed.

“Noooo! I failed to get the immortal fate. My effort is in vain!”

In the end, only a wisp of his divine soul was left. The great expert roared at the sky, full of unwillingness and anger. Unfortunately, he still failed to reverse his fate of failure. In the end, his divine soul was stored in a jade bottle by his disciples. He was barely alive, but it would take tens of thousands of years for him to regain his former strength.

“The immortal fate has yet to arrive!

...

“Is it not the time for the world to accommodate an immortal yet?”

Many Supreme Masters in the God Realm were puzzled.

They had clearly felt that the Spiritual Qi tides between heaven and earth were enough to produce an immortal.

What exactly went wrong?

Ding Hao was also thinking about this problem.

Moreover, he gradually thought of a possibility. It might have something to do with him. The current recovery rate of this world was indeed enough to accommodate an immortal, but it was only enough to accommodate one. Everyone thought that there was no immortal in the world, so they chose to fight for the first opportunity since ancient times. Even Ding Hao thought so at the beginning.

But in fact, he had overlooked one thing.

He had reached the Completion of the dual meridian nine-apertured God Realm, and his combat capability was comparable to that of an immortal. Although he had yet to go through God’s tests and reach that realm, in fact, from the perspective of the rules of heaven and earth, Ding Hao could be regarded as a semi Human Immortal. In this way, a semi Human Immortal had already appeared in this world, and he had already occupied half of the quota and half of the Karmic Luck. It was impossible for others to become immortals now, and they still had to wait.

“No. I don’t have much time. I can’t wait any longer…”

Ding Hao understood the key point and knew that if he continued to wait, it would be to Hades True Immortal’s advantage. Therefore, after thinking about it, Ding Hao decided to adopt the method used by the immortals in the Immortal Period. He would forcibly lower his cultivation to give up half of the quota.
