Chapter 887 The Heaven River

After Ding Hao and the others walked out of the Ocean Forest, they marched at fast speed and even paid a high cost to use the space gate to teleport them from time to time. Therefore, they finally overcame this long distance and approached the territory of the Stone Mouth Town in just one month.

The place where they pitched camps was called the Fragrant Plains.

This was a vast prairie with a kind of wild grass that was more than two meters tall everywhere. The roots of this wild grass smelled fragrant. When the wind blew over the prairie, the whole land would be fragrant. That was why it was called Fragrant Plains.

A big river called the Heaven River passed through the Fragrant Plains, dividing it into two parts.

The place where Ding Hao and the others pitched their camps was exactly the bank of the Heaven River.

The caravan hired a guide.

The campsite chosen by the guide was a place where businessmen often settled down. With a large area of beach, slowly flowing water and a broad vision, this place was relatively safe. There were also caravans which stationed here particularly to provide services to the passers-by.

Ding Hao stood on the shaft and looked around.

There was a wide variety of pedestrians and teams within a radius of dozens of miles along the long bank of the Heaven River. They stayed overnight temporarily. Some people had already lit a bonfire, which looked quite lively.

Even a man made of iron would feel tired after marching so hurriedly and continuously. Although Ding Hao was anxious, he didn’t want to exhaust these masters, so he decided to rest here tonight. Tomorrow morning, they could speed up. He believed that at this time tomorrow night, they could enter a radius of 500 kilometers around the Stone Mouth Town.

Then he would slowly inquire about his father.

After sorting out his thoughts, Ding Hao was about to return to the carriage to cultivate when a long and majestic military siren suddenly sounded in the distance and echoed between heaven and earth. Then, a black extreme battleship appeared in the distant sky, coming toward them.

“That is…”

Ding Hao’s pupils contracted.

It was a battleship of the God’s Palace Army. The black battleship was very aggressive like a shark swimming in the ocean. It quickly flew across the sky. When it got closer, one could see a black flag fluttering on the bow of the ship. The flag snapped in the void like an eagle.

“It’s the flag of the Moke Fleet from the God’s Palace. This is the Moke Fleet!”

“Oh heavens, it’s actually the best guard camp of the God Emperor… Could it be that the God Emperor has personally come to battle?”

“No, this is just the outer army of the guard camp instead of the elites. But it is still very outstanding among tens of millions of troops in the God’s Palace. Every soldier is stronger than the strong… They must come to deal with the eldest Divine Prince!”

There were various kinds of exclamations on the bank of the Heaven River.

At this moment, many people recognized the origin of this horrible army in the sky.

Several hundred large black battleships in total flew over the heads of the crowd, casting dark shadows on the ground. At this moment, many people held their breath and ceased discussing in case that they irritated the Moke Fleet and brought disaster to them.

But no one expected that the last battleship in the Moke Fleet flying at high speed suddenly broke away from the main force and stopped without warning.

Several rays of flowing light suddenly flashed in the sky and then landed, turning into more than a dozen powerful generals of the God’s Palace in black dragon armor. Their eyes swept across the crowd like lightning.

“A riot has occurred in the Stone Mouth Town. The God Emperor has commanded the Moke Fleet to wipe out the rebels. We advise all unrelated people not to go to the Stone Mouth Town easily to prevent themselves from being utilized by the rebels. If anyone dares to collude with the rebels, all his friends, relatives and sect would be wiped out.”

The cold and ruthless voice of an immortal general sounded by the river bank.

More than a dozen immortal generals walked in the crowd, and their eyes were as sharp as eagles and falcons. They swept across everyone’s face, as if they wanted to see through the true identities of these people. Under their aggressive gazes, almost no one dared to look up at them.

Those who were interrogated trembled with fear.

One could get a glimpse of how powerful the God’s Palace was from this scene.

Finally, an immortal general came to the station of Ding Hao and others.

He walked into the camp with an indifferent look.

“Stop!” A physical cultivation master with an expressionless face stood out and blocked his path.

The immortal general was startled, and then he sneered. “You dare to stop me?”

This physical cultivator from the Ocean Forest, who was responsible for guarding, said word by word uncompromisingly, “No one is allowed to step into the campsite without my master’s permission.”

“Eh? It is funny. It’s been a long time since I met such a loyal and foolish dog.” The immortal general burst into laughter. It had also been a long time since he was stopped by someone in the Eastern Continent. “That was really interesting.”He thought.

The physical cultivator wasn’t afraid at all but sneered. “Perhaps you are used to being a dog and will always treat others like dogs. However, since you are someone’s dog, you should have the awareness of a dog. Generally speaking, a dog will come to a bad end if it bullies others under the protection of a powerful person.”

“What did you say?” The immortal general exasperated instantly.

Clang!

He unsheathed his long sword and stabbed it at the physical cultivator like lightning.

The physical cultivator snorted coldly and did not move at all. With a flick of his finger, he hit the sword exactly with the tip of his finger. Suddenly, the fine magical weapon in the hand of the immortal general was broken inch by inch and shattered like an ice cube.

The immortal general only felt an irresistible force coming, however, the part between his thumb and index finger ruptured and bled. He could no longer hold the handle of the sword but let it fly away.

“You…” The immortal general was shocked.

At first he thought this man who looked like a guard of the caravan only had Primordial grandmaster Qi cultivation and was very weak. Who knew that he had such horrible power? His weapon was easily broken by this man though he was in the Martial Grand Emperor Realm. “Is this muscular man a master in the Sage Realm?”The immortal general wondered.

“What happened?” The other six or seven immortal generals heard the news and all came there.

The immortal general waved his hand, then the wound between his thumb and index finger was healed instantly. He said with a gloomy look, “A suspicious man has been discovered.”

Nearly at the same time, roughly 30 to 40 physical cultivators also closed in on them.

Because those physical cultivators were experts at physical cultivation, they were very oppressive with their muscular bodies. They looked fierce and each one of them had a strong sense of killing, which clearly showed that they were ruthless and often killed people. Being surrounded by thirty to forty of these men, the faces of these immortal generals changed for a moment.

They could feel the power inside those muscular caravan fellows. That was a kind of power which could destroy everything once it burst out.

“Who are you?” the leader of the immortal generals asked with a slight change in his expression.

At this time, Shan Xiong split the crowd and walked out with a light smile on his face, saying, “We’re only a caravan from the border of the Ocean Forest. We don’t have any ill intent. My companion rarely leaves the sect and was very dull. Moreover, he has never heard of the reputation of the God’s Palace, so please don’t take offense.”

The Ocean Forest?

The immortal generals looked at each other and felt slightly at ease.

It turned out that they were barbarians from that desolate and barbaric land. No wonder they looked like barbarians and spoke as sonorously as the clang of weapons like a dull man. Therefore, it wasn’t surprising now as the Ocean Forest was a place for barbarians.

It was said that the physical cultivators from the Ocean Forest were not afraid of death. When they fought against others, they would fight to the death. They were extremely savage. Initially, the leader of the immortal generals wanted to make a big fuss and take down this caravan, but now he was a little hesitant.

“The Ocean Forest is not under the jurisdiction of the God’s Palace. These physical cultivation masters are abrasive and tough and are said to be very poor, so we could not squeeze out anything valuable from them. If they are pressed too hard, they might take risks and trap us—the less than ten immortal generals here.” The leader of the immortal generals thought.

“You, tell me the landform of the border of the Ocean Forest. What Human Clan sects are there?” The leader of the immortal generals pointed at one of the cultivators and asked.

Being hot-tempered, the physical cultivator was about to scold the leader back when he heard his unfriendly tone. However, he saw Shan Xiong make a sign toward him. Therefore, he just snorted and roughly told him the local terrain and the names of some Human Clan sects like the Divine Sword Sect.

Seeing that his explanation was correct and even more detailed than what he knew, the leader of the immortal generals was no longer doubtful. He nodded and said condescendingly, “There are many rebels in the Stone Mouth Town now. You’d better be careful. Once our God’s Palace knows you have a relationship with the rebels, we’ll kill all the people in your tribe.”

After a few warnings, the immortal generals and the others turned into flowing lights and disappeared from the huge Moke warship in the sky, and then the battleship was started and disappeared in the vast night sky.

“Pooh! You are dogs under the protection of some powerful men!” A physical cultivator cursed with disdain.

“There are only a few immortal generals. Even if you randomly pick out several soldiers from the guard camp of the Celestial Master, they can defeat these immortal generals easily. “The physical cultivators thought. These wild savages from Ocean Forest were indeed abrasive and hard-tempered. They were like wild horses out of control, and only Ding Hao’s words could restrain them.

“Now we are outside and we should try not to make trouble as the Celestial Master’s matter is more important. Everyone should control your temper and don’t hold up the important matter of the Celestial Master,” Shan Xiong calmly advised.

The physical cultivators nodded and controlled themselves a little bit.

In the past few days, Shan Xiong, the marshal of five districts, had established a certain prestige among the physical cultivators.

The crowd dispersed.

Many caravans and forces along the Heaven River looked at the physical cultivators from the Ocean Forest differently. A force that fought against the immortal generals of the God’s Palace and could gain the upper hand was simply like a rare animal. At first, many people looked down on these physical cultivators who didn’t have high inner strength cultivation and only had muscular bodies. But now they looked at them as if they were looking at devils, hiding aside in awe.

During the whole process, Ding Hao did not speak.

He sat cross-legged on the rush cushion in front of the luxurious carriage and witnessed the whole process.

“You did a good job,” Ding Hao said to Shan Xiong who came to report.

Having been acknowledged by Ding Hao, Shan Xiong was exalted and said, “I know that there must be something very important for you to come to the Stone Mouth Town this time, so I will restrain them from making trouble so as not to cause trouble for you.”
