Chapter 815 Life-and-Death Arena
“Time’s up. Stop sleeping,” the Human Clan Supreme Master had already calmed down and leveled his voice, not taking umbrage at the stone tablet’s boasting.
“I don’t care. I’m still very weak now. Give me some natural treasures to excite myself,” the stone tablet bargained.
“Ask your master for them. He has more than I do,” the Human Clan Supreme Master sounded extremely patient.
The stone tablet then jumped and jumped in Ding Hao’s palm, as if it were scrutinizing Ding Hao with an extremely critical eye. After a long while, it said resentfully, “Well, it is this guy? I do feel a familiar aura on him. Hey, brat, if you want me to help you, you’d better give me something to eat. Having been hibernating for such a long time, I’m starving to death.”
Ding Hao did not pay any attention to the extremely unreliable little tablet at all.
“Senior, what’s going on?” Ding Hao tried to ask about the Spirit Awareness of the Human Clan Supreme Master. From the conversation just now, obviously, it knew some secrets.
“You will know them in the end,” the Human Clan Supreme Master said slowly.
Hearing this, Ding Hao gnashed his teeth.
The answer made him so angry that he wanted to cuss.
It revealed nothing!
“Ding Hao, there will be three Life-and-Death Arena battles by Mirror Lake tomorrow. Those who get on the arena must be warriors of the Human Clan of Snow Province. I counted you in, but the other two will be chosen by you. The coming duel is of great importance and influences the interests of all sects. Things were never as simple as they seemed on the surface. We are playing the best of three, so you have to make sure you win.” The voice of the Human Clan Supreme Master echoed in Ding Hao’s ears.
Life-and-Death Arena?
Ding Hao had heard about it from Song Que and Gu Xing’er before. After the battle by Mirror Lake, the Supreme Masters of the two clans made a Life-and-Death Arena agreement. Originally, it was set to be a solution to the dispute between Chopping Sun City, Blood-sampling Peak, Gu Xing’er, Song Que, and Demon God Palace. However, now it seemed that more interests were involved. Things were not as simple as they seemed. Otherwise, the Human Clan Supreme Master would not pay so much attention to it.
“I will try my best.” Ding Hao nodded.
Ding Hao was confident in himself in the three Life-and-Death Arenas, but he didn’t have a clue who the other two warriors should be.
The other two warriors must be from Snow Province, so then Song Que, Bai Quanshui, and the others he favored could not participate. There was only a limited selection of warriors.
“Well, when the battle is over, the lot is cast. At that time, you will know everything you wanted to know.” The voice of the Human Clan Supreme Master rang for the last time, and then the aura of his divine senses disappeared between heaven and earth.
Ding Hao looked around and found that he had got a few strange looks from people.
Obviously, these people didn’t hear the conversation between the stone tablet and him, and between the Human Clan Supreme Master and him just now. They might have been isolated by the Human Clan Supreme Master with divine powers for some reason.
“It’s all over.” Ding Hao took a long breath.
The battle of Qing River Town finally came to an end.
Although a tragic scene of dead bodies and blood was avoided due to the intervention of the supreme-level existence, Qing River Town had become in ruins. Thousands of people in the town had died because of the attack of the Devil Hall. When they looked around, what they saw were the dead ruins.
After such a catastrophe, the Human Clan commoners started to clear the debris.
In such a cold and cruel world, disasters and death could come at any time. Many people even got used to the departure of their relatives and the destruction of their homes. The dead were gone, yet the living needed to move on for the reproduction of the whole clan.
Ding Hao thanked Song Que, Bai Quanshui, and the other experts of Blue Cloud Sect and Extermination Swordsmanship Sect.
In order to further express his gratitude, Ding Hao gave out a lot of magical herbs and precious medicine later. The Martial Sage experts of the two sects also received the statue of divine fire given by Ding Hao. They represented the peak of the Human Clan’s combat capability. If they could ignite the divine fire and get their lives prolonged, it would be of great benefit to the Human Clan. Ding Hao was not stingy, not to mention that he had a lot of statues of divine fire with him. The statues on the Divine Fire Altar of Fake God City in the center of the Sage Battlefield were nearly all taken by him.
Such generosity won him the gratitude and appreciation of the experts from the two sects.
They had launched the attack just according to Song Que and Bai Quanshui’s orders in the beginning, but from now on, they would treat Ding Hao as a real friend.
Ding Hao also took the time to treat Li Ying.
Li Ying, who had lost his two arms, was in good spirits. He was not superior to the Primordial Realm, so his broken arms could not be restored. Ding Hao treated Li Ying’s wounds with elixirs, which was the only method at present. Only when Li Ying reached the Primordial Realm and received inner transformation could the pair of arms regrow.
Ding Hao and the experts did not stay too long in Qing River Town.
Given the importance of the Life-and-Death Arena battles tomorrow, Ding Hao had to return to the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect as soon as possible to discuss with Li Lan and the others and make the final decision. Bai Quanshui, Song Que, and other experts of Blue Cloud Sect and Extermination Swordsmanship Sect also went off to the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect together.
The three places for the Life-and-Death Arena battles must be determined.
It was the most important thing.
One day’s time passed by extremely quickly.
The uproar arisen from the battle of Qing River Town finally spread across the Snow Province.
Various legends were spread between the two clans.
The Human Clan warriors took delight in talking about Ding Hao, the Saber and Sword Addict. He showed his strength in the first battle after returning to Snow Province. Even many experts of the older generation admitted their inferiority. Moreover, the news that the Sky-fleeing Stone Key had been captured by Ding Hao also started to spread.
However, this time, no one dared to be greedy.
Because this was a decision made by the Supreme Masters of the two clans.
When the sun rose from the horizon the next day, too many gathered around the Mirror Lake. The warriors and experts of the Human Clan and the Demon Clan who had heard the news had crowded the War God Square. The masses were like waves, crowding it so densely that even water could not seep through them. The Life-and-Death Arena was created by skilled craftsmen of the two clans. Piled with inscription and gold stones, it was 30 feet high, with19 layers of reinforcement formations. It was said that the Supreme Masters of the two clans had once helped with the reinforcement of the arena. Even the experts at the peak of the Saint Realm were unable to destroy it.
Tens of thousands of experts from the two clans appeared around the arena.
The major forces from the Demon Clan and the leaders of the Human Clan had congregated here as well.
People were speculating what kind of experts the two sides would send to the arena. When the Supreme Masters of the two clans agreed on the Life-and-Death Arena battles, they did not reveal too many detailed rules except that the representatives of the Human Clan must be elected from Snow Province, which was also the most thrilling part.
It seemed to be unfair to the Human Clan.
Snow Province was almost a martial arts desert for the Human Clan, there not being many real experts. However, the Demon Clan could choose warriors from the entire Northern Region, which undoubtedly made them be at a huge advantage. Common logic told them that it was almost impossible for the Human Clan to win in the three Life-and-Death Arena battles.
The only thing that could be confirmed was that this battle was not a battle between the top warriors of both clans. At least the Supreme Masters would not participate in the battle.
The sun was rising bit by bit.
The golden sunlight was falling to the ground.
People’s hearts were beating nervously.
Around the golden arena, the Human Clan and the Demon Clan were distinctly separated.
Even though conflicts were avoided due to the Supreme Masters, the atmosphere between the clans couldn’t be considered friendly.
The air seemed to be filled with gasoline. Even a little spark could ignite it completely.
“Haha, there is no doubt that the Human Clan would be defeated by us. The strongest person in Snow Province is just the Martial Emperor. Any Demon Emperor expert from our clan can easily beat him,” someone of the Demon Clan sneered.
“Haha, that’s right. Even if I win such a battle, I won’t feel accomplished.”
“Don’t be so excited. It’s just a boring massacre. Why did the Human Clan Supreme Master agree to such an unfair condition? Because they had to find a way to appease us Demon Clan! The three warriors of Snow Province are just sacrifices!”
Many warriors of the Demon Clan were very confident in today’s Life-and-Death Arena battles.
“Don’t be ridiculous! If we Demon Clan of the Northern Region could not defeat the Human Clan of Snow Province, the Land of Infinity would be ashamed of us!”
On the opposite side was the Human Clan.
The laughter and provocation from the experts of the Demon Clan irritated the Human Clan warriors.
However, they had to admit that what the opposite side said was the truth.
There was a huge disparity in strength between the two clans.
Blue Cloud Sect, Extermination Swordsmanship Sect, Cauldron-seeking Sect, Cauldron Seeking Sect, Skycloud Sect, Supreme Martial Sect, Wave-hearing Pavilion, Wenren Family, Fortune Sect...
These heads, leaders, and elders of the Human Clan in the Northern Region, as well as many Absolute Superiors and Martial Sages of the Human Clan who had been famous for many years, were sitting with stern looks. There was no sign of what was going to happen.
The Jade-faced Asura Li Lan, head of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, was also among those powerhouses. After three years of being in a low profile, the real strength of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect would definitely be beyond people’s expectations. Only those superpowers knew that the current head of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect was absolutely qualified to sit there.
Different from the senior masters with white hair and beard, Li Lan was dressed in a white women’s dress, dignified and holy, looking as beautiful as a fairy. She was nothing short of a beautiful landscape, making many people envious but dare not look directly at her. Glancing at her, people would be shocked at her beauty.
Li Lan was also expressionless, fitting well with the very title of “Jade-faced Asura” as if a beautiful human-shaped ice sculpture were sitting there.
Behind the heads of these sects, Song Que, Bai Quanshui, and other experts of the new generation acquired the qualification to watch the ceremony at close range.
These top existences of the Human Clan in the Northern Region occasionally whispered to each other, all with anxious looks on their faces.
In fact, even many Absolute Superiors couldn’t figure out what was in the Human Clan Supreme Master’s mind.
Many ordinary warriors and experts of small and medium-sized sects gathered together, trying to know something from the expressions of these Human Clan pillars. Unfortunately, they were all let down.
