Supreme Emperor of Swords

Chapter 12 Inspecting the World

An hour later, Lin Xin and Li Canyang slightly exhaled and slowly opened their eyes. They looked at each other and nodded gently with a smile.

They made it.

They had successfully broken through the bottleneck of cultivation.

Ding Hao appeared in front of them at that moment. When they saw him, they were both shocked.

“Senior Brother Ding!” the two shouted in unison.

Although they had not completely regained their memories, with some fragments of their memories of Ding Hao and Ding Hao’s care for them all the time, how could Lin Xin and Li Canyang not recognize Senior Brother Ding?

In fact, even if they lost all their memories, they would immediately feel a sense of familiarity and intimacy when they saw Ding Hao.

“Junior Brother Lin, Junior Brother Li, long time no see!” Ding Hao looked at them with his bright eyes.

Li Canyang had known Ding Hao earlier. Because of the relationship between his cousin and Ding Hao, he had more contact with him back then. Compared with Lin Xin, Li Canyang had more and deeper memories of Ding Hao.

At this moment, when Li Canyang saw Ding Hao, he could not speak for a while. He stood straight and his eyes blinked.

It had been too long. He had been separated from the world of everyone’s life. Moreover, the remaining memories in his mind made Li Canyang feel that the old time was far away. At this moment, when he saw Ding Hao, the man who often appeared in incomplete images in his memory, he had mixed feelings.

Ding Hao also stood straight and said nothing.

In the past, people always said that he was protective of his friends and family, and he never denied this. He never hid his feelings for those who were close to him.

Right then, Lin Xin broke the silence and pulled them to a small wooden house on the side.

This was his and Li Canyang’s temporary residence. There was some simple furniture inside.

The three of them sat down. Ding Hao began to ask about their recent situation.

“Did you two just cultivate the Soul Tao?” Ding Hao asked.

“I’m not going to lie. It’s the Soul Tao. This cultivation method is very helpful for us to regain our memories and improve our cultivation,” Lin Xin replied. Both he and Li Canyang wanted to completely regain their memories as soon as possible.

“That’s good. If you need anything, just tell King Qinguang here. He will naturally take care of you,” Ding Hao said.

“Senior Brother Ding, you don’t need to worry about us. We focus on the internal cultivation of the Soul Tao, so we do not rely on the medicinal material much,” Lin Xin replied courteously.

Ding Hao nodded slightly, but Li Canyang, who was sitting next to him, did not say a word at this time, which made Ding Hao a little uneasy.

“Since I am married to Yiruo, by rights, I should call you cousin.” Ding Hao looked at Li Canyang with a smile.

Li Canyang seemed to wake up from a trance and vaguely said, “Oh, Senior Brother Ding, you are too courteous. I’d better call you Senior Brother Ding. ”

Li Canyang frowned and was searching desperately for the scene of Ding Hao and his cousin’s marriage. He should not have forgotten such an important thing, but at this time, he couldn’t remember it at all.

Ding Hao could tell what Li Canyang was thinking and slowly said, “It’s a pity that you were not present on the day of my wedding, Junior Brother Li. Otherwise, it would have been more lively.”

When Li Canyang heard this, he realized that he had not participated, but why didn’t he? He tried to recall further, but Ding Hao diverted his attention.

Ding Hao continued, “When I first met Yiruo, I also met you for the first time. At that time, you were a young man with a pink face.”

“At that time… I was still an arrogant and domineering young master?” Li Canyang seemed to remember something.

Seeing this, Ding Hao told them something about them in time to help them recall more memories.

In this way, Ding Hao chatted with Lin Xin and Li Canyang for half a day.

When Ding Hao left, the three of them did not show too much reluctance. This was a simple way of men saying goodbye to each other.

After Ding Hao left, he thought. “In the chat, although both of them showed part of their memories and seemed to be immersed in them, it was not difficult to see that they still had different feelings for the past mentioned by others and the past that they remembered.”

Thinking of this, Ding Hao believed that these two people would fully regain their memories sooner or later.

Only when they remembered their past fully, their lives would be truly complete. Only then could they be considered to have been completely resurrected, and not just a fragment of their consciousness.

Ding Hao had also thought that since he could resurrect Lin Xin and Li Canyang in this way, could the experts above the Immortal Period have a way to be revived? After all, the reincarnation cycle still existed before the Immortal Period.

After bidding farewell to his two friends, Ding Hao began to patrol the Hell Path.

…

By the River of Forgetfulness, in front of the Karma Mirror.

In the first hall of The Ten Halls of Yama, where King Qinguang was located.

Back then, under the guidance of the Heavenly Samsara Disc, Ding Hao came to Hell Path inadvertently. In Hell Path, he found that he had supreme magic power. He could raise a tall building and change the seasons with just a decision.

When he met a soul of an ancient master who was honest and confirmed to have accumulated a lot of good deeds when he was alive, Ding Hao gave him magical power and conferred him the title of King Qinguang, who would be in charge of everything in Hell Path.

More than two hundred years had passed. The Hell Path had been perfected by King Qinguang step by step under the guidance of Ding Hao. Now it had formed a complete system.

The Ten Halls of Yama, the River of Forgetfulness, the Road to the Netherworld, and the Karma Mirror had all been perfected. Thousands of ghosts were being judged. The wicked would be punished and sentenced to the Three Evil Paths while the good could enter the Three Good Paths.

Ding Hao looked at everything that had been arranged in an orderly manner and nodded slightly.

“Where is King Qinguang?” Ding Hao shouted.

There was a loud bang in the sky, and the silver lightning shook heaven and earth like a silver snake wriggling. It was extremely beautiful. Streaks of silver light flashed and instantly appeared in front of Ding Hao. Then, they suddenly converged and turned into a burly figure in armor. His bronze skin gave off a sense of loyalty and reliability.

“Greetings, Master!” King Qinguang knelt on one knee with a respectful attitude.

At this time, he was no different from the last time Ding Hao saw him, but Ding Hao could clearly feel that King Qinguang’s strength was already in the True Immortal Realm.

King Qinguang’s merits were boundless. Ding Hao praised his management of the Hell Path and reminded him to keep it going.

King Qinguang’s eyes were filled with tears when he heard this. It was Ding Hao who had given him such an opportunity. It was his greatest honor to be praised by Ding Hao.

Before leaving, Ding Hao said, “I may not come here again for a long time. You must guard the Hell Path well.”

King Qinguang was shocked when he heard this. He felt that there was a hidden meaning in Ding Hao’s words. He solemnly said, “I will definitely live up to your reputation. Goodbye, Master!”

After that, Ding Hao turned into a cyan shadow and disappeared from the Hell Path.

In the next moment, Ding Hao appeared in the Asura Path.

As soon as Ding Hao appeared in the Asura Path, Dangdang the Asura Queen immediately sensed Ding Hao’s arrival. She hurried to his place with the people around her.

...

As a result, not long after Ding Hao stepped into this world, he saw a group of peerless beauties like fairies flying toward him on colorful clouds. The leading one was naturally Dangdang, and the 24 poor women in the Blood Jade Ice Pot were following her.

As if nothing had changed, Dangdang was still attached to Ding Hao like a daughter of his. As soon as she came up, she held Ding Hao’s hand tightly and asked him all kinds of questions.

Every time she asked a question, she would continue to ask the next one before Ding Hao could answer. She made it as if Ding Hao’s answer was not important. What mattered was that Ding Hao was listening to her. Ding Hao didn’t know how to react to this.

What made Ding Hao more overwhelmed was that the 24 poor women in the Blood Jade Ice Pot did not forget to flirt with him from time to time when their queen was asking questions.

“Brother Ding, when will you take us as your concubines?”

“Yeah. We’ve got Dangdang’s acknowledgment.”

“You’ve been thinking about it for so long. Why are you still thinking about it? I’m so worried.”

“Brother Ding has four beautiful wives, but the more, the merrier.”

Ding Hao didn’t expect that those twenty-four women, who were now the giants of Asura Path, would still tease him like this. This could be regarded as their usual way of greeting him. Those days in the past were unforgettable. The twenty-four female superiors just used this way to salute Ding Hao to show that they had never forgotten how things were back then.

After half a day, the group of women finally calmed down.

Ding Hao’s arrival really surprised and delighted them.

...

Ding Hao asked about the situation of Asura Path.

Under the leadership of Dangdang the Asura Queen, combined with the assistance of these twenty-four women and the arrival of the entire Great Peace Era, Asura Path had become a completely different place.

There were more and more people in Asura Path now, and there were rarely wars.

People in Asura Path recuperated, and their strength was gradually increasing.

Hearing this, Ding Hao was relieved. Surrounded by those women, he roughly inspected the Asura World. The situation was almost the same as what they described.

Before leaving, Ding Hao suddenly asked, “By the way, I refined the profound energy entity of that life-bonded strange stone. How is it now?”

Naturally, he was asking about Ding Honglei.

“Brother Ding, Sister Honglei you refined is exactly the same as the original body. However, she has completely lost her memories about us and even all of her previous past,” one of the women said.

Ding Hao nodded.

This was within his expectations.

“Brother Ding, why don’t we take you to see her now?” another woman asked.

Ding Hao hesitated for a moment and said slowly, “There’s no need to rush it. I’ll come again and visit her by then. Maybe there’s a way to restore her.”

He preferred to see Ding Honglei as the same woman in the past.

Then, surrounded by those women, Ding Hao disappeared from the Asura Path.

In a flash, Ding Hao came to Hungry Ghost Path.

At the moment, Ding Hao could freely shuttle between the six paths.

The omnipresent yin-yang seawater on the Hungry Ghost Path had completely retreated. A large piece of land appeared in front of Ding Hao. The world distinguishedly separated the sea and the land, each occupying half of the place.

The land was covered with fragrant grass, mountains, and plains, as well as countless creatures who had been sentenced to be on the path of evil. They lived and reproduced here. It was flourishing.

Those Vile Ghosts who had survived the Immortal Period catastrophe had established a new ruling order to dominate this continent.

In this world, the feeling of hunger that all living creatures could not get rid of always remained.

Later, Ding Hao also visited the Human Path and the Beast Path. He patrolled the entire six paths and then returned to the Heaven Path’s continent.

The six paths all showed a prosperous scene.

After inspecting the six paths, Ding Hao did not stop. Instead, he went straight to God’s Palace on the Eastern Continent.

Xuan Tianzong had inspired him.

Ding Hao wanted to inspect that place before the final choice was made.
