Chapter 545 A Long Wait

Most importantly, they had overcome the illusions and reached the dark corridor.

“Yo, two ants. I can’t believe that you managed to make it here, barely having reached the Primordial Realm. This is truly surprising...” scoffed a demon expert as he released his power.

Li Muyun and Liang Feixue landed in the demons’ group when they were transported out. They had low strength and serious injuries. Several demon experts deliberately threatened them with momentum, worsening their condition.

“Humph, you’re so weak. I don’t know how you came here. Do you want to get a share of the treasures in the mysterious ruins?” A demon expert with a tiger head and a human body snorted coldly and suddenly slapped, trying to kill them.

It was impossible for a martial artist at the Primordial Grandmaster realm to withstand an attack that could destroy stone tablets.

In the eyes of many demon experts, killing weak humans with no background or influence was no big deal. It wasn’t much different from killing a chicken.

“Brother...” Liang Feixue held Li Muyun and couldn’t dodge.

He roared, and his eyes suddenly turned scarlet. With a roar like that of a beast, a primal power slowly emerged from his body, trying to resist the power of this Demon King.

“Hm?” The tiger-headed Demon King was slightly shocked. He immediately increased his strength and counteracted Liang Feixue’s already exhausted primal power.

Li Muyun, however, was seriously injured and had no strength to resist.

Just when the two of them were about to be killed by the tiger palm, something happened—

“Swoosh!”

A streak of flowing light flashed past and directly penetrated the tiger palm condensed by Demon Aura. The powerful force of inertia also pierced through the physical palm of the Demon King, throwing him backward for more than ten meters, and nailing him to the wall of the dark corridor.

“How dare you!”

“How dare you!”

“Who dares to launch a sneak attack on our clan?”

Several demon experts standing beside the tiger-headed Demon King immediately stood up and roared. They looked at the opposite side with hostile expressions.

However, these demon experts were flabbergasted by what they saw.

Ding Hao, the Saber and Sword Addict, stood dozens of meters away. He looked at them coldly with his sharp eyes.

Several superiors at the realm of Demon King suddenly withered. They looked away and quickly sat back. They didn’t dared to act. If it were anyone else, they might have made a fuss for a while. But they could only act obediently when it came to Ding Hao or the fat Song Que, two of the superiors of the Human Clan.

The tiger-headed Demon King, who was screaming in pain, was so frightened that his face turned pale. He didn’t even dare to pull out the broken sword that had nailed his palm to the wall.

The rest of the demons no longer dared to bother Li Muyun and Liang Feixue.

With Ding Hao backing them, no one would court death.

“Thank you, Senior Brother Ding!” Liang Feixue thanked Ding Hao immediately.

Li Muyun’s face was pale and he was seriously injured. With the help of Liang Feixue, he nodded slightly to express his thanks.

Ding Hao waved his hand. With a swoosh, the broken sword that had been nailed to the tiger-headed Demon King’s palm flew back to his hand. With a flash of light, it disappeared into the storage ring. He said calmly, “Since we are from the same sect, we should naturally help each other. There’s no need to thank me.”

Liang Feixue slowly walked over with the help of Li Muyun and entered the human camp.

The tiger-headed Demon King was filled with regret.

“This was really unlucky. How could bullying two nonentities actually provoke Ding Hao, the devil incarnate? These two guys were actually Ding Hao’s fellow disciples. I feel scared at the thought of what I did. I nearly died. Fortunately, the fierce Ding Hao did not kill this time.”

Ding Hao ignored the tiger demon.

He hesitated for a moment, then he finally took out several healing elixirs from his storage ring and handed them to Liang Feixue.

He remembered that in the first five academies competition, the pair of Honorable Alliance of Seven showed great arrogance, and their strengths and goals were much higher than those of their peers. Even Ding Hao was lucky enough to defeat them. At that time, Li Muyun and Liang Feixue were Ding Hao’s strong opponents, especially Li Muyun. He didn’t take Ding Hao seriously at all, and made an appointment with Ding Hao to fight with swords later on.

But they were no longer match for Ding Hao at the moment.

If it weren’t for Ding Hao, no one would bury their bodies even if they were killed by the tiger-headed Demon King.

Somehow, the relationship between Ding Hao and these two had become a little rocky.

Although they were fellow disciples, the prejudice against each other was considerable. The day when they entered Sage Battlefield, they left without saying goodbye nor did they accept Ding Hao’s silver storage ring.

However, considering that they were both disciples of Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, Ding Hao still gave them medicine to heal their wounds.

Everything had passed. The two people had no possibility to contend against him, and Ding Hao would not hold a grudge. Although he still had doubts about one of them and guessed that he was the man with the bronze grimace mask who had repeatedly tried to assassinate him, Ding Hao still treated him as a fellow disciple.

Ding Hao’s words shocked many people present and made them look at Li Muyun and Liang Feixue with new eyes.

Even a few human experts had begun to attempt to make friends with these two people.

They hoped to get closer to Ding Hao by doing this. After all, Ding Hao was one of the geniuses who might become the most powerful person in the Northern Region in the future. Even if they couldn’t become good friends, it was also a good choice to become friends with Ding Hao’s fellow disciples.

Only the fat man, Song Que, was able to see the difference.

Ding Hao’s attitude towards Li Lan was completely different when compared to how he interacted with Li Muyun and Liang Feixue. Obviously, there was something subtle between them. Song Que was keenly aware of this. Ding Hao’s attitude towards the two people was not as passionate how he treated Li Lan.

Time flew by quickly.

In the blink of an eye, two days and nights had passed.

More than two hundred people had appeared in the dark corridor, and all the top experts with the stone tablet maps in their hands had gathered, so it was time to open the last stone door.

“Eldest Brother... Sixth Brother, Seventh Brother and Eleventh Brother have yet to come out,” Lin Tianyu, who was standing by Song Que’s side, said with concern.

A rare look of anxiety appeared on Song Que’s chubby face. He muttered to himself, “It’s been three days and nights. I’m afraid they are in grave danger... Let’s wait, let’s wait!”

Ding Hao was also anxious at this time.

Because Li Lan had not come out, either.

“Xiao Lan’s strength and talent are no less than that of Li Muyun and Liang Feixue. There’s no reason for her not to come out yet...” Ding Hao comforted himself constantly in his heart and tried to find various reasons to convince himself, but he couldn’t hide his worry.

“Are you worried about that missy?” Evil Moon, the Fat Cat, leaned close to Ding Hao’s ear and said, “If the illusion is really a test of a warrior’s inner world, then it would be very dangerous for her, because I can feel that she had traumatic experiences.”

“She has traumas?”

Ding Hao was stunned and asked, “What do you mean? Have you found something?”

Evil Moon shook his head and said, “I just feel that she has too many secrets and was born many responsibilities. People like her are the most prone to get into trouble in the face of inner demons.”

“Why didn’t you tell me earlier?” Ding Hao was even more anxious when he heard that.

Evil Moon said grievously, “I didn’t know the last section of ancient westbound road was a test of inner demons.”

Ding Hao was stunned, and he also knew that he couldn’t blame this unreliable fat cat.

However, what he said made Ding Hao even more anxious. If it weren’t for the irreversible space transmission to the illusion, he would have risked everything to save Li Lan. Unfortunately, he could only wait at the moment.

In the blink of an eye, another day had passed.

In this day, only two demon experts had been transmitted from the illusion to the dark corridor; they were heavily injured and on the verge of death.

Other than that, no one else appeared.

Making a rough calculation, there were more than fifty experts from the two races who had entered the illusion but had yet to come out. Most of them were experts from the Demon Clan, including Demon Royal Bu Tianjue and Demon Royal from the Silver Moon’s Ancient Demon Clan. There were also three experts of the Top 12 in Blue Cloud Province from the Blue Cloud Sect who had yet to show up.

Some people carefully analyzed and found that most of those who had not passed this test were powerful martial artists. However, some martial artists with mediocre strength had managed to come out.

“Open the door of the mysterious ruins. We don’t have much time left. We can’t wait any longer...” someone shouted.

Others immediately echoed his request.

Ding Hao sneered and said nothing.

Song Que just chuckled and didn’t say anything.

The two of them stood shoulder-to-shoulder in the dark corridor, waiting with anxiety on their faces. They didn’t even have the mood to cultivate.

Time ticked by.

In the blink of an eye, two days and nights more had passed.

No one else had been transported out during this period of time.

“The rest of the experts have probably failed...” The Demon Royal Bu Tianjue sighed. In his clan there were also two outstanding talents who had not come out yet.

“All things return to their original forms. In the unseen world, everything has its own destiny. Those who haven’t come out are not necessarily dead.” The Demon Royal of the Ancient Demon Clan of Silver Moon also sighed. There were four talents in his clan that had yet to be seen.

Although demons were savage, they had displayed their warm side when it came to their own people.

Following the insistence of the few powerful experts, the two clans continued to wait in the dark corridor for an extra pair of days.

Unfortunately, no one else had been transported out.

“Let’s set off now!” The Demon Royal Bu Tianjue and the Demon Royal of the Ancient Demon Clan of Silver Moon reached the same decision.

Song Que hesitated for a while and finally made the decision to set off.

Ding Hao was silent. It was less than a month before they had to leave the Sage Battlefield. It was useless to keep waiting. The hidden treasures in the mysterious ruins were related to the fate and prospects of the two clans in the Northern Region. The plan had been plotted for tens of thousands of years and could not be delayed.
