Chapter Fourteen: A Glimpse of the Beauty

  Hu Shuo still walked towards the study, his face showing a joyful expression, as if he had encountered something delightful. Seeing Ding Hao come in, he hastily put an object into his storage bag, seemingly afraid of being discovered. Ding Hao's sharp eyes had already seen clearly that it was a jade slip before Hu Shuo put it away, and he had already made some calculations in his mind!

  Hu Shuo must have exchanged the medium-grade crystal stone given by Ding Hao for He Xiulian's cultivation method, otherwise he wouldn't be so flustered after seeing Ding Hao. Ding Hao couldn't help but feel a little amused - what kind of cultivation method could compare to his own unparalleled Infinite Magic Cultivation? Unfortunately, having such a treasure without the key to unlock it was a pity!

  "It was actually Junior Brother Ding, Junior Brother and his disciple caused a stir at the Sect's Grand Assembly, making me feel envious. I don't know what business you have with me this time, but if Senior Brother knew, he would surely tell me everything without reservation. The crystal stone you gave me last time helped me greatly, and I still remember Junior Brother Ding's kindness!" Hu Shuo smiled somewhat fawningly!

  "Hu Shixiong is being polite, seeing the joy on his face, I don't know what good thing he's encountered, can you tell me about it? Ding Hao would also like to hear a bit!"

  "Is that so? Hehe, maybe it's because of the crystal given by my junior brother, I feel like I've made a lot of progress in these two days, and now I'm being laughed at by my junior brother!" Hu Shuo repeatedly defended himself.

  Ding Hao didn't say anything, just looked at Hu Shuo, and only spoke when he saw Hu Shuo's expression becoming increasingly embarrassed: "To be honest, Ding Hao's achievements today are all thanks to the Wujimogong. I mentioned before that this technique is profound and intricate, but it seems like Brother Shifu didn't believe me. Judging from your delighted expression, you might have obtained another cultivation method. Since we're not close, I'll just say a few words, I don't know if Brother Shifu is willing to listen!"

  Ding Hao thought for a moment and decided to help him out. Firstly, although this person was a bit slippery, he wasn't a bad guy after all. Secondly, this person had helped Ding Hao a lot, and the Unparalleled Magic Sect couldn't become powerful just relying on one person. This person didn't even have a master in the Unparalleled Magic Sect, so he basically posed no threat to him.

  Hu Shuo looked at Ding Hao in extreme surprise, unable to comprehend why Ding Hao would say such a thing. His face was uncertain and changing. After thinking for a moment, he said to Ding Hao: "I know my junior brother will not harm me, but I don't quite understand what you're saying. The Wuji Demon Technique has always been known for its slowness, and after all these years of cultivation, I should be the one who understands this best. Can you explain it clearly to me before I make a decision?"

  Looking at his tone and expression, Ding Hao had even greater expectations of him. Originally, he didn't think much of him, but now he had a slightly improved impression. After telling him some things that could be said, he added a sentence: "Those who cultivate this demonic technique without the next level of technique will suffer the consequences!"

  He bowed his head in silence for a long time, Hu Shuo raised his head and looked at Ding Hao, kneeling on one knee and saying: "I hope Master will tell me the secret of Wuji Magic, I am willing to follow Master, never betray!" He said with a serious tone.

  Ding Hao would never underestimate this person again. Since he knew the consequences of cultivating the Wuji Demon Art, it meant that he had already known that his life was completely in Ding Hao's hands. It was rare for someone to make such a decision, and it made Ding Hao look at him with new eyes!

  "It's fine, one day you will understand how correct the decision you made today is. I won't say more nonsense. Here are the initial cultivation methods of Wuji Magic Kung Fu and the two top-grade crystal stones for your cultivation use. Take a look at the Jade Simpleness Cultivation Method you just hid, it's best not to cultivate it. That's all I have to say, I know you're a clever person, take care of yourself!"

  Ding Hao didn't care that Hu Shuo was still half-kneeling, and directly walked out of the library. It wasn't until much later that Hu Shuo dared to stand up again, but his eyes were exceptionally firm and calm!

  After leaving the library, Ding Hao's mood improved a lot. Due to the characteristics of Wuji Magic, Ding Hao didn't believe that Hu Shuo dared to betray him. Looking at this person's conversation, it was clear that he wasn't as simple as he seemed on the surface!

  Having this helper may not seem like much for himself at present, but Ding Hao believes that he will definitely be able to exert his power one day!

  Arrived at Chen Ling's residence and saw that Chen Ling's face was gloomy, didn't know what Ma Feng had discussed with him, but just by looking at his expression, it was clear that it wasn't anything good.

  Just now at the meeting, Ma Feng was still smiling and courteous to him, but now his expression is like this, Ding Hao can't see through it!

  After Ding Hao came in, Chen Ling also arranged a small array in the house and looked around before saying: "Ma Feng has already suspected you and me as master and apprentice. From now on, we must be more careful when doing things. In these two years, you should go out and travel, don't stay in the sect anymore, so that he can't find any excuse to catch us. I know you are cautious, but I still have to remind you that no matter what you do outside, you must be clean and efficient, don't leave any excuses for others, otherwise not only will you die, but also implicate our sect!"

  Ding Hao's mind suddenly lit up, knowing why his face had looked so ugly just now. However, these few words were indeed said extremely correctly - it would be best to not stay in the sect for the next two years and wait until the Soul Refining Sect's gathering before returning. Otherwise, he would implicate his master's reputation. Heh heh, did Chen Ling ever have a master in his heart? It was just that he feared Ding Hao would cause trouble later and say he was his disciple, afraid of implicating himself.

  After some thought, he still repeatedly acknowledged Chen Ling, although he didn't take it to heart himself, but his current identity was extremely important to Chen's actions, and he didn't want to completely fall out with him either.

  He took out another top-grade crystal and gave it to Chen Ling before bidding farewell and leaving.

  For several months, Ding Hao had been appearing around the Broken Soul Mountain, on one hand consolidating his current realm and diligently cultivating, while on the other searching for some good quality cultivation materials to craft a treasure. This treasure was recorded in the Wuji Magic Manual, which was something he could currently cultivate. The treasure wasn't used for attacking or defending, but rather for storing the cultivator's Yuan Baby. Although it seemed useless, it was actually the foundation for cultivating another powerful treasure.

  This period of searching did not yield any valuable materials, and the required materials are no longer the basic items for cultivation. The jade slips of Chen Ling also do not record the origin of these items. Ding Hao can only search by himself, and it is only now that he realizes how precious Chen Ling's notes were at the time.

  Ding Hao came to a deep pool, feeling that aimless searching was not the way, seeing the clear water and couldn't help but have the urge to take a bath. For some reason, since he swallowed the Eight-Winged Purple Python's inner dan, he seemed to have a special interest in water, and in the water, he felt his six senses were even more acute.

  I had just entered the water and washed for a while, feeling that the ripples in the water were not quite right, as if there was someone else here. My heart couldn't help but feel curious, and following the ripples to their source, my mind was suddenly shocked - how could there be such a beautiful woman in this world!

  Only a beauty with skin as smooth as jade, radiant and resplendent, like an immortal descending to the mortal world, was seen washing her body in the water, still self-satisfied. Her hair was styled in a loose bun, high and slightly drooping, matching her slender and elegant figure, delicate waist, beautiful neck, and fair skin, which shone even more brightly, making her appear charming and alluring. Her eyes were deep and black, sparkling like bright pearls when she glanced around, and her bright teeth added to her external beauty, blending with her inner beauty to form a picture of a beauty beyond desire!

  For the first time, Ding Hao's body uncontrollably rose with the urge that a man should have.

  However, this woman's cultivation was unfathomable to Ding Hao. He immediately knew that her realm was above his own. As he watched, his breathing became increasingly rapid and uncontrollable, and in his heart, he secretly cried out in alarm.

  Just as he thought of taking the opportunity to leave, the woman had already discovered Ding Hao's eavesdropping and directly let out a furious shout, "Little thief looking for death!" A two-foot flying sword was already heading towards Ding Hao, although her angry voice still sounded melodious!

  Ding Hao had barely drawn the Inverse Heaven Sword when he was already caught up by this sword. Just by its appearance, Ding Hao knew that it was the best flying sword he had ever seen, aside from the Inverse Heaven Sword!

  At this time, it's too late to escape, with a wave of his left hand, a black token welcomes the flying sword. This token is Ding Hao's strongest defensive artifact. As soon as the token appears, it transforms into a two-zhang-long shield in front of Ding Hao. The flying sword shoots out a red light, and the entire pool surface suddenly feels like a million rays of light. The black shield is directly pierced through, but its speed has slowed down, still heading towards Ding Hao. It seems that he had anticipated this situation, and at this moment, the Inverse Heaven Sword is already in his hand.

  Ding Hao went all out, mobilizing his entire body's true energy to wield the Inverse Heaven Magic Sword against the incoming flying sword. As soon as they made contact, he felt a massive force like a mountain landslide transmitted from the Inverse Heaven Magic Sword to his hand. This force seemed to carry a burning power akin to flames, and Ding Hao was sent flying over thirty meters before landing.

  His whole body was ashen and his face was gloomy, but at this moment Ding Hao was overjoyed. If not for the extremely cold air of the Inverse Heaven Sword blocking one wave, if not for his exceptionally strong physique, if not for his body being long accustomed to the fiery True Essence, then with just this one blow Ding Hao would have been completely scattered and his five spirits would have been broken. Nevertheless, even so, Ding Hao still suffered no small internal injury.

  Ding Hao knew he was no match for this woman, her aura was much stronger than Chen Ling's. He lay still in the water, pretending to be dead, hoping she would spare his life.

  A moment later, a fragrant breeze swept in, and Ding Hao already knew that the woman had arrived. He let out a cold snort: "Do you think dying can make up for the crime of peeking at this young lady's body? Even if you die, I'll still dig out your eyeballs!"

  Just as she finished speaking, Ding Hao took the lead and made a move. His body was floating in the water, but he suddenly sank down without warning, relying on the speed of the Inverse Heaven Sword to slash at the woman from the bottom of the water. The woman's face, which had always been in control, finally showed a hint of panic for the first time.
