At the airport, to the south of the capital city.
Although it was at night, at the airport, there were still many people coming and going, with a huge passenger flow and an extraordinarily prosperous scene.
Outside, two men were walking toward the airport.
One being older, the other being younger, both of them were wearing hats and baggy clothes, covering their exterior and faces intentionally or unintentionally.
They went in the airport accompanied by the crowd while carrying only several belongings and came to an unoccupied place and sat down.
"Alas, finally it's time to leave. I've never expected that I would leave in this way." After sitting down, the older man sighed while watching the lights outside in the city.
The younger man responded to him discontentedly, "Elder Cang, are we leaving like this?"
"So what, the Dragon Group is over, so do we. Now they are just too busy to pay at
In an ICU of the most advanced military hospital in the capital city, Qin Hao was holding Shi Bingying tightly while sitting on the sickbed. And Shi Bingying was leaning on his chest, with smiles at the corners of her mouth out of happiness. Qin Hao hurried over last night. Things went as same as Li Zhanwu predicted, after Qin Hao's treating and comforting for the whole night. Shi Bingying, who had been severely hurt, had already mostly recovered and would be fine after a few days’ rest. A Martial Cultivator's injury needed another Martial Cultivator to treat. Treatment of ordinary people wouldn't work well. Of course, it also had to rely on Qin Hao's excellent medical skills. "Ying, how can you be so silly, letting yourself be hurt so seriously?" said Qin Hao sympathetically while gently playing with Shi Bingying's soft and smooth hair. Shi Bingying smiled faintly, "Since I can't help you fight with enemies, I can only try my
At headquarters of the Sky Group, which was exactly the former headquarters of the Dragon Group with merely another tag. Li Zhanwu invited Qin Hao to the meeting room and took out an appointment document solemnly. In the same way, he read the statement that Qin Hao was appointed as the Sky Group's first vice head and instructor while his group leader was naturally Li Zhanwu. Qin Hao received the document, only took a look and put it aside casually. Li Zhanwu felt quite a shock. He thought that Qin Hao had a disagreement with the position, and he wanted the leader position. "Qin Hao, you are still young, and you have a promising future. We are old. The world is in your hands in the future." He made it clear that the Sky Group was bound to be Qin Hao's. Although Li Zhanwu was the leader, he could do nothing if Qin Hao had different opinions. Qin Hao, of course, knew Li Zhanwu's words. He shook head and said with a s
Two days later, the warship carrying Qin Hao appeared on the horizon of the island. Early in the morning, Qin Hao and Shi Bingying were having breakfast in the dining hall as a sailor ran in to report: "Instructor Qin, we are about to arrive at the island, but...?" Qin Hao raised his head, asked with curiosity after seeing the sailor's hesitation, "What's wrong?" "Instructor, there is something wrong on the island." "Something wrong?" Qin Hao was at a lost, and he felt anxious and stood up immediately, "Let's see." "Me too." Shi Bingying hurried to stand up and follow them. They went on the board and someone handed Qin Hao a pair of high power binoculars. Powerful as he is, Qin Hao could see everything on the island without it. However, with its help, he could see it more clearly and he took it and looked forward. He felt quite shocked after taking a look. What happened?
"Don't move. Shifu is giving me his strength." Qin Hao gritted his teeth and promptly stopped Shi Bingying and Little Monster, avoiding a disaster that would have been caused by their goodwill. Bloody Demon King was delivering his strength to Qin Hao. If it was disturbed at this time, the consequences would be unimaginable. "Kid, don't talk. Hold your spirit and try to absorb. Otherwise, both you and I will be destroyed." Bloody Demon King warned while gritting his teeth, with traces of white smoke rising from his palms and forehead. Shi Bingying looked at the two and was confused about the appearance of Bloody Demon King. Was he really Qin Hao's Shifu? Although she doubted that, Qin Hao had already confirmed, so she would not say anything more. She was a Martial Cultivator, and she knew how important the moment was. So, she gently retreated to the entrance of the cave together with Little Monster and guarded outs
A month had passed in the blink of an eye, and Qin Hao had to go back. Before he came here, Li Zhanwu asked so sincerely that he had to go back in a month, since the oil battle he would need Qin Hao. During the past month, what Qin Hao had suffered was beyond ordinary people could bear, but he had also made great progress. He had strengthened Peak of Fourth Stage Martial Cultivator and had greatly improved Skin Refining. He had already begun to cultivate the third stage-Bone Refining of Eternity Spell. Bone Refining would make people bones invulnerable. One wouldn’t be hurt at all if he had suffered a powerful attack, or even he had jumped directly from a building that was several ten stories high without using Qi to protect his body. Of course, it was also powerful for people to attack, who had mastered Bone Refining. The attack of bones as hard as steel was really amazing. Once Bone Refining was mastered, plus Skin Refining,
"Oh, ladies and gentlemen, how are you? I'm a super warrior from the WS, and you can call me Avier." Li Zhanwu and others were staring at this westerner who just broke in and wondering who he was. He introduced himself and walked in arrogant manner."I've heard that the Dragon Group. Oh sorry, now it is the Sky Group. I've heard that the Sky Group have the best warriors in The Celestial Empire, so I come to meet them. But...hahaha, sorry about that, I thought they were strong, but they fell down before I used much strength, so I am here. Haha, the Sky Group, best warriors in The Celestial Empire...Hahaha...!" The guy called Avier kept talking as he walked and was laughing, clearly laughing at and looking down on the Sky Group, which hit everyone's heart on the spot. His meanness was not targeted at the Sky Group anymore, but at The Celestial Empire. He thought that The Celestial Empire people were all weak and cowardly.
Li Zhanwu received quite a lecture from Director Wang, who then commanded that he had to find Qin Hao anyway and left. After Director Wang left, Li Zhanwu yelled at his subordinate, "Stop all your fucking work now to look for Qin Hao. Also, use warships and satellite to track. Find the bastard by any means!" After he gave this order, all departments started to work at once, to mobile satellites, warships, airplanes...Outsiders would think that there would be a military exercise on the sea. ... At a hotel in the capital city specialized in serving foreigner guests, two VIP guests from two countries, the WS and Gapan, checked in. They were delegations sent to the Brot Islands, but now they both decided to come here directly to the capital city instead of to the islands. It was well known that the oil battle on the Brot Islands only had three major players, The Celestial Empire, the WS and Gapan. Others
This time, the corsairs cooperated very well that they made a unified attack. Each ship fired a shell at almost the same time, which gave or took a few seconds. Over a dozen shells were poured to the warship surrounded by them, whistling and dragging hot fire tails.Pirates on their ships looked at such a dense air strike. There was a hideous grin on each one's face. They could almost imagine the beautiful firework caused by the explosion of the warship on the sea level in the next moment.However, the next moment, they saw a weird scene instead of a beautiful firework, which made panic and looks of disbelief quickly replaced their grins.The shells in the air suddenly stopped in the air, seemed to be sucked by magnets. Then they saw someone was suspending in the air.A human could suspend in the air? Were they dazzled or they had an illusion, like seeing a mirage at sea?They blinked hard, rubbing their eyes with han
In the Forest of Lost, the highest place in the northwest of Semi-Ancient Martial World. This day, a handsome young man and two beautiful women showed up in front of the forest. They were Qin Hao, Shi Bingying and Shadow. There was a stele at the entrance, on which wrote four huge scarlet characters: No Entering Or Die. "Hao, is the Forest of Lost really that horrible? One has to die for entering it?" asked Shi Bingying. Qin Hao was struck dumb. It was also his first time to come here. To whom should he ask? But Shadow knew something. She, after all, had grown up in Semi-Ancient Martial World. She had more or less heard something about the Forest of Lost. "The Forest of Lost is the barrier leading to the Life-or-Death Array. To enter the Life-or-Death Array, one must enter the Forest of Lost." Shadow responded to what Shi Bingying had asked, "It's said that in the past thousands of years, none of tho
The next day, a piece of shocking news spread to every corner of Semi-Ancient Martial World. Tian Han Sect was exterminated the day before, and its mountain was smashed down into the earth by more than ten meters. All its members and all the grand buildings were buried in the giant deep pit. The earthquake felt by people in almost half of Semi-Ancient Martial World turned out to be the shake caused by the crashing of Tian Han Sect. Without asking, people knew it must have been done by Qin Hao. In Semi-Ancient Martial World, only that freak could do such a horrible deed. The "visit" mentioned by Bloody Demon King the other day turned out to be such a visit, an exterminating visit with no one having survived. Tian Han Sect had been erased. What would happen to the other two major sects? Not long later, the news was heard that the other two, Ancient Sword Sect and Saint Moon Sect, were devastated in the same manner.
As the decennial Hero Meeting came to an end, the watching crowd melted away. The bustling Hero City gradually regained its former quietness. However, the discussion about the Hero Meeting continued. Even after years, when someone talked about this grand meeting, his face was still full of astonishment. That youth, Qin Hao, came out of the blue and brought so many amazing and shocking memories. This young man was destined to be a forever legend being talked about in the martial world. He was also a monument that no one, whether from the urban world or the Semi-Ancient Martial World, could ever surpass. When being faced with or talked about by thousands of Martial Cultivators, he could only be looked up to or admired. As a top master, he was looked up and worshiped by some people, but was frightened for others.The three major sects were living in fear now. The words left by Bloody Demon King struck huge terror into their hearts.
On the dilapidated Hero Arena, Bloody Demon King walked with Shi Bingying and Shadow. Luckily, there was a place remained to allow them to have a rest. Qin Hao also landed on the arena. He asked Bloody Demon King, "Shifu, how can we enter the transmission array?" "When it is the time, the array will appear naturally. Before leaving, I have to say something." Bloody Demon King turned a serious look to the people down there with an aura of killing, "All people down there, listen carefully. I am Bloody Demon King from Ancient Martial World. I failed and was trapped in an unknown island in the Indian Ocean. As the old saying, if the tiger went down to the level land, it would be insulted by dogs. I was insulted by some dogs." "A few months ago, the Sect Leaders of Tian Han Sect, Ancient Sword Sect and Saint Moon Sect robbed me shamelessly. Luckily, I survived to stand here alive today. However, all my resources were robbed by them. They helped t
People under the arena saw over one hundred Void Stage experts rushing to the Hero Arena and were all astounded. They did not expect that these experts would be so insane. More than one hundred Void stage experts, over ninety percent of all experts in Semi-Ancient Martial World. They all rushed there to kill a young man. He would definitely be slain no matter how strong he was. How could his breathtaking finger handle with so many Void Stage experts? Facing so many Martial Cultivators, Qin Hao would not use the finger. That would be so silly. No one would give him time to accumulate power. Given time, he could only kill one. Then he would be slain by others. "What shall we do? Shifu?" Shi Bingying and Shadow all panicked and turned to Bloody Demon King for help. "Calm down. Calm down. Maybe Qin Hao has a solution." Bloody Demon King called them to calm down and yet he himself was also anxious. He failed, not expec
"Nooooo." Du He made a desperate scream. He had thought he could avoid it, but he had not flown for a meter when the thundering eddy caught him like a magnet. In an instant, he was swallowed into the black eddy. Looking up at the sky, the crowd down there opened their mouth wide out of shock. They were silently watching the Du He who had been swallowed. They were totally astounded, shocked and looked like stones. Everything was silenced at the moment. The hundreds of thousands of people could not hear any sound but the wind roaring and the echo of Du He's miserable cry when he was swallowed. Silence. There was full of dead silence. Time passed and the roaring wind stopped. The swallowed figure in the void could be seen. Du He was still standing in the void. Was he still alive? He had survived this attack. He was so powerful. No wonder he was ranked the first in Hero Rankings, the top master in Semi-Ancient Martial
After Qin Hao said about fighting against three of them, the Sect Leader of Ancient Sword Sect stood out. He released powerful Qi that was as sharp as a sword and spread to its surroundings. Even people below the arena could feel its sharpness. No wonder he was the Sect Leader of Ancient Sword Sect. Even his Qi was as sharp as a sword. The strongest wave of Qi, of course, went to Qin Hao. Fluttering under its pressure, Qin Hao's clothes were about to be torn apart. Qin Hao frowned while driving his Qi to resist. He exclaimed in heart: no wonder he could be one of the top masters in Semi-Ancient Martial World. "A mere junior. Who do you think you are? Are you qualified to fight against us three at the same time? To kill you, I'll be enough." He had known Qin Hao's stage—the late period of Void Stage. He was freakier than the three geniuses of their sects by entering the late period of Void Stage at an
The host was about to announce the names of who were qualified to go to Ancient Martial World. Although most people had known, he still had to announce it officially as a kind of ceremony. He was supposed to say the names loudly enough to print it in people's minds, and to make it an example to them on the path of martial cultivation. However, before the host could let out his passion-brimmed speech, a sudden boom had suppressed it. Yes, it was a "boom". No one knew where it came from. The sound was so resonant that it surmounted that of thunder, which shocked people on the spot a lot. They started to look around for its source. Soon they found it. They saw a trail of a shadow in the sky. And then a figure flew across over the sea of people, giving rise to a gust of mad wind. "A Void Stage master?" Judging by its ability to glide in the void, people, though hadn't seen it, knew it must
The next day, all the people in Hero City headed to the Hero Arena.Off the Hero Arena, there were crowded with people. The last battle of the competition for the once-a-decade Hero Rankings was about to begin.The Hero Rankings' importance not only lay in the three places to enter the Semi-Ancient Martial World, but also in glory. Those who ranked in the front of the list enjoyed a good reputation, high prestige, and the quality to be proud.However, the battles for rankings had ended. Behind the Hero Arena, there was a huge stone monument towering into the cloud, which was equipped with a special array for a unique function.Now, dense names were marked on the stone monument from top to bottom in both position and ranking. However, the order of number started from the eleventh place for the first to the tenth was blank. Today's battle, as well as the last battle, aimed at competing for the ranking of the top ten masters. In addit
