Rules of Heaven - C89
Ding Hong turned around and walked to the stone pillar that he just passed by. He looked up and down at the two sentences that he had just said.
“Birth: God Slaying Abyss. Death: God Soul.”
He stroked his chin and thought, “Life, Death.” Then, is there another stone tablet, inscribed with ‘Death, Death God’? ” A light flashed in his mind as if he had thought of something. However, just as the answer was out, a woman’s scream came from the other side of the canyon.
“Duan Ling Tian!”
Ding Hong’s expression turned grim as he turned around, instantly transforming into a gust of wind as he ran towards where Duan Ling Tian was.
A loud bang was followed by the force of impact that was mixed in with the evil wind as it rushed over from where Duan Ling Tian was. Ding Hong was extremely shocked in his heart. He didn’t know what had happened at Duan Ling Tian’s side. He directly summoned the Yin Yang sword formation, and the sword qi in his hand burst out, moving five steps at a time. In the blink of an eye, he arrived at where Duan Ling Tian was.
At this point, Ding Hong didn’t see Duan Ling Tian, he only saw two mummified corpses with tattered and tattered clothing! The dried corpse’s eyes flickered with a blue flame. Its entire body seemed to have been burned by something. A scorching smell filled the air.
The two mummies slowly got up from the ground. Just as they were about to move forward, they suddenly felt Ding Hong behind them. They turned around in unison.
“… “Death!”
“Done … Done …” “Die!”
The two corpses kept mumbling to themselves, but they didn’t move for a long time. Ding Hong looked at them warily. He gradually understood that they were talking about “becoming a Death God”.
Ding Hong cautiously retreated a distance away from them, constantly looking for Duan Ling Tian from the corner of his eye, and said, “Who are you?”
“God of Death!” Become a Death God! ”
The two mummies suddenly spoke at the same time and stopped stuttering. Ding Hong instinctively felt as if they had gradually awakened from a deep slumber. He was shocked in his heart as the sword qi in his hand revolved and directly pierced towards them. He did not dare to give them any more time.
Seeing Ding Hong’s sword qi piercing towards them, the two dried corpses cried out in fear. They roared in anger and grabbed at him with their palms. They were ready to kill each other at any moment. Ding Hong frowned and raised his wrist. After knocking the hands of the two dried corpses to the sides, he jumped up forcefully onto a platform. He took out his Ever-Flame Sword from the void and waved it at the two corpses. Suddenly, a wave of fire roared out and pounced on them.
The two mummies were not afraid of the fire. They opened their mouths at the same time and spat out two blue flames. After the Hellfire touched Ding Hong, it was immediately infected by the Hellfire and turned into an eerie blue color. It rolled back towards Ding Hong. Ding Hong harrumphed coldly. With a flick of his right hand, he drew out a picture of Yin and Yang and struck it.
After the Yin-Yang Image came into contact with the Nether Flame, the eight images showed no reaction. Instead, a portion of the black light that represented yin in the diagram grew brighter, absorbing all of the Nether Flame that collided with the Yin-Yang Image. Soon after, the black light faded from the “Yin” and most of the power turned to “Yang”.
When the “Yin” and “Yang” reached a balance, the image of Yin and Yang flashed with a green light and turned into an afterimage as it smashed towards the two corpses.
With a “pfft” sound, the Yin-Yang Image seemed to emerge from thin air and pierced through the two corpses. The desiccated corpse didn’t fly backwards as it usually did. Instead, its body slowly turned into wisps of sand and scattered into the air.
When the surroundings disappeared, the two corpses said in a calm and slightly echo voice, “Become a Death God …”
Seeing that the two corpses had disappeared, Ding Hong could not help but heave a sigh of relief. He did not have the time to study what they meant by becoming a deity, and loudly shouted, “Hey! Little girl, where are you?! Girl! “Ah …” Ding Hong suddenly heard a sobbing sound. It was as if this little one had never appeared before!
However, Ding Hong heard it. He suddenly became very quiet, carefully listening to the origin of the sound. Then, he jumped down from the platform and walked towards the sound while bowing. When she arrived at a place that was so black that her fingers couldn’t even be seen, Duan Ling Tian’s terrified voice sounded from the depths of the darkness. “Don’t come over here! “Don’t come near me!”
Ding Hong naturally stopped and thought for a moment. Then, he turned his head to the place where she had taken a bath. The blue pearl was still there, but …
However, there were broken fragments of the clay vat, as well as a woman’s undergarment and panties lying there. Ding Hong instantly knew why Duan Ling Tian was like this.
He looked at the clothes for a long time, sweating from the heat on his forehead, wiping them several times. In the end, he gritted his teeth and put away the pearl in his hand. He then walked over and picked up his undergarments, panties, and other clothes, and placed them in front of Duan Ling Wan. Following that, he took out a large vat full of clear water and placed it on the ground, saying, “I brought my clothes for you, and even put a vat of water here. “You …” After thinking for a long time, he did not know what to say. He silently cursed himself and calmed himself down. He said, “You can take another bath. I’ll wait for you in the distance.” With that, he turned and left.
However, when he had walked less than a hundred feet, Duan Ling Tian suddenly used a cowardly voice that he had never heard before. “You … Can you wait for me here …?” Her voice was hoarse and even choked with sobs.
Ding Hong stopped. He felt his emotions and said, “T-then I’ll sit here and wait for you.” He loosened his legs and sat down on the ground.
After a while, Ding Hong heard a wave of water ripples, followed by the sound of water sloshing against his body. Ding Hong’s whole body was covered in sweat. He thought for a moment and was about to chat with them to transfer the information, so he asked, “What happened just now?”
The sound of the water waves stopped, and Duan Ling Tian said, “I was just taking a bath, when those two people suddenly ran over ….” “I, I …”
“Eh.”
Ding Hong guessed the cause and effect. Duan Ling Tian’s personality wasn’t cold like snow in the first place, so when he saw someone barge in while she was taking a bath, he was surely distracted, so how would he dare show his face? He must have used some life-saving item to hide.
Seeing that he didn’t ask anymore, Duan Ling Tian continued to wash. Not long after, she finished washing and stood behind Ding Hong. She patted him and said, “I’m done washing.”
After Ding Hong heard this. He turned his head to look. As he looked, he couldn’t help but be dumbfounded.
Duan Wanling had a head of long, black hair that was dripping wet. Her peachy eyes were illuminated by the blue light emitted by the pearl, and her adorableness was reflected in the light. Water droplets constantly dripped from her pointed nose, and eventually fell onto her dark red cherry lips. Furthermore, she was wearing very little clothes. Her lotus-like hands and tender thighs were all stained with water drops, making her look extremely alluring.
When Duan Ling Tian saw his expression, his eyes shone with a cold light.
Ding Hong jumped in fright. He quickly regained his senses and stood up. He pointed at the dark sky and said with a smile, “Today’s weather …” He suddenly remembered that he couldn’t see the sky, so he swallowed and said, “That’s right.”
Duan Ling Tian was silent and didn’t say anything else. Ding Hong then said, “Let’s look around and see if there is any way out of here.” He picked up the original bead and led the way forward.
Duan Ling Tian suddenly said, “Thank you.”
Ding Hong laughed, but his footsteps didn’t stop. Duan Ling Tian followed behind. After walking a distance, Ding Hong suddenly remembered something. He stopped and turned around, “Oh, what kind of thing did you use? Why did they directly fly here? ”
Duan Ling Tian pulled the scented pouch on his waist and withdrew a black talisman that was shaped like a small person from the space above the scented pouch. He said, “Shadow talisman can instantly move a kilometer.”
Ding Hong’s eyes lit up. He said, “Then wouldn’t we be able to…” Halfway through his words, Ding Hong’s voice weakened. In the end, even he could not hear clearly. It was because he had suddenly thought of the fact that the black talisman could only teleport one mile away. However, how many miles could the depth of this abyss be measured?
Duan Ling Tian thought for a moment, then blinked his eyes and said, “How about we give it a try?”
The clothes Duan Ling Tian was wearing were already unique to begin with, and the skin on his body was exposed to a large area. Now that he was making such a cute appearance again, Ding Hong couldn’t help but cough dryly twice to stop himself from thinking too much, and he looked towards the sky and said, “Alright.”
Duan Ling Tian hesitated for a moment. Then, with a cold expression, he suddenly placed his hand on Ding Hong’s shoulder and activated the black talisman. The black talismans released streams of black gas that surrounded the two people. They jumped up and instantly dissipated like smoke. A few heartbeats after they had left, several hundred beams of deep blue light suddenly lit up in the dark and empty space!
When the black qi dispersed, Ding Hong and Duan Ling Tian noticed that they had already arrived at another platform. They happened to land on the edge of the platform, and to their right was a dark abyss.
Ding Hong sized up the surroundings before taking out a glowing pearl from his Mountain and River Bag to give to Duan Ling Tian. He said, “We’ll be one in front and one behind. This way, it’ll be much more convenient.”
Duan Ling Tian nodded, then received the pearl. He rubbed it curiously as he didn’t know what treasure was inside, so he asked curiously, “Where did you get this?”
Ding Hong chuckled, “I got it from visiting the Dreamy Cloud Swampland.”
The road here was quite flat and there weren’t any winding mountain paths. However, after walking for a while, the two discovered that there was only one road leading downwards, not upwards.
Ding Hong said, “How many charms do you have left?”
Duan Ling Tian didn’t reply. He only moved his hand and two black-clothed people appeared. Seeing this, Ding Hong could only smile and give up. In this way, the two could only descend.
As they were walking, a young man’s voice was suddenly heard: “Two sirs, judging from the reaction of the apparatus, the wind crystal should have fallen around two thousand three hundred feet underground, which is about two thousand and three hundred feet away from here.”
Ding Hong and Duan Ling Tian were both shocked. They instantly put away the glowing pearl and tightly leaned on a nearby stone wall.
“Find the correct position and have the golem strike it from the top!”
“Got it, Mr. Xiwei.” The voice paused for a moment and then shouted: “Quickly find a good spot!” The sound of footsteps could be heard.
Ding Hong couldn’t help but want to go over and see what they were doing after hearing these sounds, but in the end, he endured his curiosity and silently moved closer to Duan Ling Tian’s side.
Suddenly, the sound of footsteps rang out and a ball of light slowly approached from afar.
“Let’s go over there and test it with the apparatus.”
“Yes.” “Young Lord’s mechanical skills are far superior to ours. I’m afraid that when he returns this time, he might very well become the youngest ‘Mister’.”
“Yeah, you …” “Ugh …”
“Why are you … “Ugh …”
The two people who spoke were suddenly knocked to the ground by an arm that stretched out from the darkness. The illumination apparatus and an apparatus with a support frame naturally fell from their hands, and after Ding Hong grabbed it, he lightly tossed it over to Duan Ling Tian. Then he grabbed both of them and dragged them to one side, not letting them fall and make noise.
Duan Ling Tian frowned. “Why did you drag them over?”
Ding Hong chuckled and said, “Won’t you know later?” As he finished speaking, under Duan Ling Tian’s puzzled gaze, Ding Hong dragged the two of them into the darkness, stripped off their clothes, and casually threw them into a bag in the mountain and river. Not long after, Ding Hong changed into the clothes the two people from before wore, and he passed a set of clothes in his hand to Duan Ling Tian.
Duan Ling Tian was dazed for a moment.
Seeing that she had stopped, Ding Hong hurriedly said, “Quickly put it on! That group of people definitely had a way to leave! There’s no mistake to follow them. ”
Duan Ling Tian hesitated for a moment before walking into the shadows and putting on the clothes. She was originally wearing very little, and with her quick movements, she appeared in the blink of an eye. Behind the coat was a hat with a built-in mask sewn into it. They both pulled their hats over their heads and put on masks.
Subsequently, Duan Ling Tian held the light bulb while Ding Hong carried the apparatus on his back, and it seemed that he was pretty decent.
All of a sudden, the voice from before shouted again, “Everyone, come here!”
Ding Hong and Duan Ling Tian glanced at each other before hurrying along the road. That person was not far from them. Furthermore, the path between them was relatively flat. It didn’t take much effort to find them.
The person who was giving the order was none other than the Vulture. However, at this moment, there were two people dressed in black standing next to Pan vulture, quietly standing on the side.
“Did you find anything?”
After a commotion, a person standing to the left of Ding Hong said, “Young master, if the calculation is correct, it should be two hundred and thirty feet behind you, and twenty-three thousand feet below.”
The Vulture nodded, glanced at the man and said, “Got it.” He had just moved his gaze away from that person and was about to report to the two black-clothed men when he suddenly turned around and looked at Ding Hong and Duan Ling Tian.
Ding Hong and Duan Ling Tian were shocked in their hearts. A light of doubt flashed in the eyes of the vulture. Just as he was about to come over and ask, the man in black who was closest to him said, “If you know, then let’s hurry up and leave. Don’t waste anymore time.”
When the Vulture heard him speak, it stopped in its tracks and turned to bow, “Got it.” He then swept his gaze at Ding Hong and Duan Ling Tian. Although he was puzzled, he could only give up.
When they arrived at the location that the man had mentioned earlier, the two men in black looked at each other. The man on the right nodded, pointed to the ground, and said, “Mechanical puppets, open it!”
“Bang, bang, bang …”
Suddenly, a group of puppets that looked no different from a real person jumped out from the rocks. Without stopping, they changed their hands into a spinning awl and started drilling into the ground.
