The Holy Spring aperture was the first roadblock every beginner cultivator encountered.
Ding Hao also felt that when the Qi was led to this place, it was like a rushing river that crashed into a dam. The river was stopped by the dam.
Ding Hao quickly recalled the technique on charging and clearing the Holy Spring aperture listed in "Taixuan Sword-seeking Scripture". His expression quickly grew solemn. He had activated the Qi according to the technique, turning them into tendrils and directing them carefully around the "dam".
Ding Hao felt that the blockage here was like a large round planet.
The Qi turned into thousands of wisps under his control, carefully surrounding the planet. Then, the planet started to disintegrate slowly, part by part, melting little by little.
This was a very slow process.
Time passed quickly.
In the blink of an eye, the silver moon set and the sun rose.
The light that shone through
The only problem was, this young man was quite vain and stretched the truth to win admiration. In essence, he was immature. "What did you get, senior brother Ding?" Wang Xiaoqi still wanted to compete with Ding Hao. "Just a few trinkets," Ding Hao said with a smile. He actually wanted to say that he had reopened the Magic Spring aperture and entered the one-apertured realm, so that Wang Xiaoqi would learn some humility. However, he kept his mouth shut for Zhang Fan's sake. Wang Xiaoqi's smile widened. After exchanging a few words, he was excited to show off to other disciples he knew. "Junior brother Zhang, don't worry. As long as you have deep foundations, the fact that you were admitted to Swordsmanship-seeking Sect shows that they admire your skills. Just think, you beat out tens of thousands of others for a place in this sect. If you work hard, anything can happen. Tons of famous martial artists only blossomed at
However— "You're the ones that are going to get lost!" Ding Hao did not dodge the strike and also swung his palm. In the early dawn, a faint bolt of silver flashed by. The air was instantly chilled, as if it were the dead of winter, and everyone shivered. Nangong Zheng's force was instantly dissolved by the cold. Bang! With a dull sound, Ding Hao's and Nangong Zheng's palms crashed together. A force swept out in all directions. A bit of faint frost trickled out from Nangong Zheng's hand. "Your Dark Qi..." Before he could finish speaking, Nangong Zheng's face paled, and he was thrown off of the stairs like a broken kite. At the same time, Ding Hao landed firmly on the stairs. "Senior brother Nangong..." The other purple robed disciples shouted. Nangong Zheng was not the top disciples on the waiting list in the Southern courtyard, but he was definitely highly ranked
These 10 disciples had been too infuriatingly proud before, so they had brought this ridicule upon themselves. The teal robed Eastern courtyard disciples relished the opportunity for revenge. "You... you should watch out. Just wait; I'm not even a top 50 disciple in the Southern courtyard. When the courtyard tournament comes, you'll see our true power!" Nangong Zheng said pitifully as he was helped up by another disciple. His face was bruised heavily and looked very awkward. The arm that he had been struck on by Ding Hao was still smoking with silver frost and completely numb. The other Southern courtyard disciples were equally injured. Any part of their bodies that was struck by Ding Hao was covered in a palm-shaped piece of frost and completely numbed. They all stared at him in disbelief and fear. Everyone knew that Ding Hao had formed his element Dark Qi. His Qi was also the extremely rare frost Qi, which was very
"Huh? Is that actually true?" "Otherwise, why do you think the 2000 disciples on the waiting list are divided into five academies? How come there are barely any authorities in the academies, but a few teachers? This kind of hands-off management is perfect for disciples who are truly powerful. Only after unifying his academy and gaining the support of all its disciples, can he be worthy of the title of the top disciple, of eventually joining the core disciples, and of obtaining our sect's true legacy and magic skills! "Huh. How come I don't know all of this?" "You're just a glutton who eats all day. If you asked the third-generation disciples, you would have known." "Why should I go ask since you can tell me?" said the chubby young man with a pout. "Hey, honestly, you're probably so critical of my eating because I still manage to stay slim." "Damn it, you're almost as fat as a pig!"
Ding Hao was very surprised. He thought his eyes were deceiving him and continued sending his Ice Qi into the Fate Sea aperture. However, the result was the same as before. When the Ice Qi reached the second Fate Sea aperture, it disappeared completely, not matter how much he sent or how hard he tried. How strange! How could this happen? Ding Hao forced himself to calm down and tried to think though this problem. The only explanation he could think of was the strange incident in the cave under the Great Abyss, especially with the strange saber and sword shadows and the constant sound of arguing. Was that where the problem lay? At this thought, something shocking suddenly happened that almost scared the wits out of Ding Hao. "Oh wow, this boy is pretty smart!" chirped a clear male voice in his head, without any warning. ... Ding Hao was so terrified that he almost jumped out of bed like a startled
"It's beneficial in a... very good and practical way. You'll know this in future," said the male voice. He sounded as if he wanted to continue speaking but did not. "That's right. Rest assured, we are inside your body but bear no ill intentions. Instead, you start to gain many benefits, and when the time is right and conditions are met, we'll leave your body," said the female voice in a gentle tone she rarely used till now. "I know what the young chap is worried about." "You can rest assured that we'll definitely not engage in despicable tricks like possessing your body." "That's true. Who cares about the weak carcasses of you humans?" "That's right. To think that I used to possess a body sharp enough to slice through metal. One must know that I was made of divine meteoric steel combined with 1000 other stunning materials..." the female voice said. "Ahem... young chap, if you r
The male voice laughed loudly, saying, "Don't bother about that crazy woman... Naturally, what you have to do is to open the second set to train up your meridians, simulate the second Qi Seed, and master the second form of mystical energy to satisfy the constitutional restrictions of the 'Holy Double Manifestation of Saber and Sword'. Then, all your obstacles will naturally be overcome." "I implore both of you seniors to teach me how to open up the second training system in myself?" asked Ding Hao sincerely. "Hahaha, good kid. You're impatient, though. Don't you wish to ask how you would differ from ordinary folk after opening up the second training system in yourself?" said the male voice. He sounded extremely pleased with Ding Hao's choice, but he had not forgotten to remind the youth solemnly. "I believe that both of you seniors will never harm me," replied Ding Hao with a straight face. The two voices in his hea
"Many thanks for your advice, elder. I understand now," replied Ding Hao with a nod. "You, very despicable person, have been speaking badly about me behind my back again," the female voice, which had been silent for a long while, said. She would not give in, and immediately issued her rebuke upon hearing the male voice talking about her. "Obviously I said that in your face. How could I speak behind your back?" The male voice replied as he laughed loudly and proudly. "..." The female voice was silent. "..." Ding Hao was speechless. "Why don't we do it like this? Kid, in future, you address me as Sword Master, and the crazy woman as Saber Master, to avoid mixing things up when we talk next time. We will also know who you're speaking to in this manner..." the male voice said. "Damn you! I'm still in my prime. Saber Master sounds too old for me. Call me Saber Fairy instead, wahahaha..." "Saber Fairy? I spit on that thought. You're a crazy
