Supreme Emperor of Swords

Chapter 87 Test

“What’s happening? What is he doing…” Evil Moon looked at Ding Hao, who had just come out and was walking toward a dark expert. It felt a little confused.

The people of the Charm Tribe were also confused. They didn’t know what Ding Hao was doing.

After Ding Hao quietly walked over, he did not release any power, nor did he launch an attack. He even waved his hands and smiled. It seemed that he was talking to the dark expert.

After more than half a day, Ding Hao turned around and slowly walked back.

“Human Pet, why did you go over there?” As soon as Ding Hao came over, Evil Moon immediately flew over and asked curiously, “Are you going to negotiate with them and ask them to get us out?”

“Do you think that would be possible?” Ding Hao glanced at it and continued, “I just went there to try to communicate with that dark creature…”

“Communicate with it?” Evil Moon asked in confusion, “Since you’re not negotiating with them, why did you talk to them?”

“Listen, this is because these ten dark creatures are obviously different from the previous ones. They are high-level dark creatures, so I…” Then, Ding Hao slowly explained his puzzling actions just now, and the real intention behind them.

It turned out that the reason why Ding Hao went there just now was that he wanted to know if those high-level dark creatures had intelligence. Although they didn’t answer most of his questions and sometimes even kept silent, he still found that these high-level dark creatures were indeed intelligent and not as bloodthirsty as ordinary dark creatures. Although they were still very aggressive, they could communicate.

After learning this information, Ding Hao thought a lot.

The low-level dark creatures had completely lost their intelligence and acted like slaves. However, high-level dark creatures could maintain their intelligence. Did this mean that the high-level dark creatures that could think could coexist peacefully with other creatures?

As time went by, Ding Hao thought about more and more questions and things.

At the same time, the existence of the high-level dark creatures made him realize that dark power might be allowed to exist in this world. Otherwise, it would not have existed for so many years.

“Oh, I see. But even if they have intelligence, so what? They are just following the orders of Ding Tong and won’t listen to you at all. Even if you get this information, it’s useless…” After listening to Ding Hao, Evil Moon nodded and soon asked another question, “By the way, did you find anything when you went in there just now?”

“I found something,” Ding Hao answered ambiguously.

“Something? What is it? Tell me.” Evil Moon was interested and asked again, but Ding Hao didn’t seem to want to tell it. It couldn’t help but jump and say, “Hey, Human Pet, Ding Hao, answer me. Don’t you know it’s rude not to answer me…”

“It’s not the right time yet. You’ll know when the time comes…” Ding Hao said perfunctorily. He did not say anything more to Evil Moon, who was curious. He turned around, walked to the dark spring, and sneaked into it again, leaving behind Evil Moon who was muttering “petty” and the group of confused people of the Charm Tribe.

Ding Hao seemed to have found something in the dark spring. In the following time, he sneaked into the dark spring to observe the place below.

As for what he had found, even Evil Moon did not know.

Of course, seeing Ding Hao discover something, the people of the Charm Tribe were also faintly looking forward to it. However, on this day, what Ding Hao had done shocked them, including the Empress, and they almost went crazy.

After coming to the dark spring, Ding Hao did not sneak in. Instead, he reached out and got a drop of water from the dark spring. He drank it then sat cross-legged with his eyes closed.

Seeing Ding Hao do this, the people of the Charm Tribe were all shocked.

What did he drink? He drank the water of the dark spring that could turn a powerful martial artist into a dark creature just by touching it.

In their opinion, even an immortal would be in danger and might even die after drinking the spring water.

When Ding Hao did such a crazy thing, the people of the Charm Tribe thought that he was courting death.

“What is Lord Ding Hao doing? Why did he suddenly drink a drop of the dark spring water? Doesn’t he know that no matter how powerful his cultivation is, the water of the dark spring can easily contaminate his body and mind and make him degenerate into a dark creature? Or does he have no choice but to take things too hard…”

“No, it can’t be. It can’t be. How can Lord Ding Hao take things too hard? Besides, you’ve witnessed his power before. Lord Ding Hao can even hold up the water of the dark spring with his hands. And he must have his reason to do so!”

“That’s not the same. He merely touched it before, but now the water will go into his body. Even if he’s Lord Ding Hao, something will happen to him. Even if he does have his reason to do so, it’s too reckless…”

The people of the Charm Tribe were all voicing their opinions. They did not understand what Ding Hao was doing and even felt that he was being reckless. At the same time, they were also very worried.

Now Ding Hao was the only savior of their tribe. If something happened to him and he became a dark creature, their tribe race would probably be in danger.

“Why did he do this? Did he find something?” Although Qin Menglan was very shocked, she did not lose her composure like the others. She knew very well that a strong man like Ding Hao would never do such a thing for no reason.

“But it’s too dangerous for him to do such a thing. If something goes wrong…”

“Don’t worry. Ding Hao is just doing a test. He is not crazy. What’s more, he is my Human Pet. There will be no danger. I have great confidence in him. Don’t you believe in him…” Evil Moon was not very worried, as if it did not think that Ding Hao would be in danger at all.

What Evil Moon said immediately made the expressions of the people of the Charm Tribe freeze.

“A test?!

“In order to do a test, Lord Ding took a drop of water from the dark spring and risked his life. He is too crazy!”

However, no matter how anxious and worried they were, they could not help Ding Hao solve the problem. They could only wait quietly.

After drinking that drop of dark spring water, Ding Hao suddenly felt depressed, as if he had been hit hard by a heavy hammer. He felt dizzy, and then gusts of terrible power force filled his heart and rushed to his sea of consciousness.

In his sea of consciousness, there seemed to be countless fierce ghosts roaring and rolling, making Ding Hao tremble.

Gradually, traces of black began to appear on his face, as if he was entangled by fierce ghosts. His appearance was faintly distorted, and his body was also surrounded by black air. The black air was rolling, as if there was a devil Asura making waves there.

Not long after, the dark power between heaven and earth seemed to be pulled by something, surging and circling around Ding Hao, turning into a thick layer of mist, as if it were a substance.

Evil Moon was also shocked to see this scene. It did not expect that a drop of dark spring water would have such a shocking effect. However, it still had absolute confidence in Ding Hao and believed that he would be fine.

The faces of all the people of the Charm Tribe changed.

Time passed bit by bit.

It had only been a day and a night, but it made the members of the Charm Tribe feel as if it had been as long as a century.

Suddenly, under the surprised gazes of many people, like a giant whale absorbing water, the dark power quickly shrank toward a certain center. In the blink of an eye, the black air disappeared, and the figure in cyan clothes, like jade, appeared again.

Ding Hao was fine.

He drank a drop of water from the dark spring, but he was fine. It was really incredible.

The heavy burden on everyone’s hearts was lifted at this moment.

“Meow, haha, I knew you would be fine. Otherwise, you wouldn’t deserve to be my Human Pet. Don’t you think so, Ding Hao…” Evil Moon looked at Ding Hao with a smile. Suddenly, it said cynically, “By the way, you should drink the water of the dark spring directly. No matter what plan Ding Tong has, he will definitely fail…”

Ding Hao was speechless.

…

Time passed, and they had been trapped here for ten days.

During this period, the Empress of the Charm Tribe, Qin Menglan, felt as if years had passed, and she was extremely tormented. She seemed to be constantly worrying and troubled.

The other people of the Charm Tribe had the same expression on their faces. Obviously, they were also very worried about the safety of their tribe.

While they had been trapped here for so many days, the vast Charm Tribe was likely to have long been destroyed. How could these tribesmen and their Empress not worry and anxious? However, they were not powerful enough to break the tactical deployment at all, so they could only stay here and worry.

As for Ding Hao and Evil Moon, the former was still the same as before, going into the dark spring from time to time, or sitting in the corner, looking thoughtful. The latter had nothing to do all day long, and because it was lazy as usual, nothing unexpected happened. Sure enough, during this period, it had been in a daze and slept all day long.

…

Another day passed. On the 11th day, Ding Hao dived into the mouth of the spring again.

This time, when Ding Hao dived in, he no longer went in for two hours but went in for a whole day.

When he came out, there was a person beside him. To be exact, Ding Hao helped him out.

Everyone was surprised and hurriedly gathered around Ding Hao, looking at the emerging strange man.

This man looked young, but his eyes had a sense of vicissitudes. What was even stranger was that his body was divided into two colors. The left half was white, and the right half was black, which was extremely strange.

If one looked carefully, one would notice that there were two types of power within his body, light and darkness.

“Meow. Ding Hao, you’re back… You, you’re Xuan Tianzong, aren’t you?” Evil Moon, who had just noticed Ding Hao, flew over. When it saw the strange man, it was stunned, and then it showed a look of surprise.
