Chapter 333 The Battleground of the King
After traveling for several hours, Lu Hao finally saw a scorched land.
This is the outer perimeter of the battlefield.
As soon as Lu Hao stepped into this scorched earth, he heard a booming sound. When Lu Hao looked up, he saw that it was not the work of martial artists, but rather the sound coming from the sky.
High in the sky, waves of restless energy are erupting, compressing, colliding, and exploding!
This is the collision of uncontrolled remnants of the original Dao.
Lu Hao continued his journey northeast, encountering occasionally crazed monsters along the way, all of which he easily dealt with.
After walking about thirty kilometers, Lu Hao saw a boundary wall that connected heaven and earth. From the outside, it looked like an inverted bowl, with the central part being the battlefield of kings.
Within this boundary, one can occasionally see chaotic collisions and dissipation of primordial energy.
The deeper interior was obscured by chaotic energy flows, making it impossible to see anything. Lu Hao advanced towards the boundary wall. When he encountered crazed monsters, he simply pretended not to see them, avoiding them if possible, and burrowing underground to escape if he couldn't.
After all, this is the barrier of the King's Battleground, and there will definitely be experts from the Underworld guarding it. Once they detect any fluctuations in blood energy—
These crazed monsters were all caused by chaotic power invading their bodies due to prolonged exposure to the battlefield.
Upon closer inspection, it became clear that Lu Hao's location wasn't a passage but rather a normal boundary wall, as there weren't many underground warriors guarding it.
Lu Hao began searching along the boundary wall for weak points.
He felt that his trip down to the underground cave was all about finding something, from searching for passages at the beginning to now searching for weak points.
He's really had a tough time on his journey. Once he gets in, he'll let the warriors of the forbidden zone witness the might of the God of Slaughter, Lu Hao.
Two days later, Lu Hao stood in front of the boundary wall and looked at the boundary wall in front of him. This was a weak point in the boundary wall.
The weak points of the boundary are not easy to find. The original weak points will quickly heal and become powerful points after you break through the boundary.
Therefore, weaknesses can only be exploited the first time they are discovered.
Lu Hao dared not use his mental power openly, so he could only slowly investigate on his own. Fortunately, his efforts paid off, and he finally found a weak point.
As for what grade the opposing domain is, Lu Hao doesn't care; he has to get in no matter what grade it is!
Having finally found this weak point, we must enter even if the opponent is a ninth-grade domain.
At worst, we can stay inside and find weaknesses in the Eighth Rank Domain; that's safer than wandering around outside.
Lu Hao unleashed a punch, causing the boundary wall to tremble and create a crack.
Lu Hao quickly stepped inside. As soon as he entered, he was shocked by the intense energy flow.
No wonder the highest level here is only ninth rank, and even then, only weak ninth rank cultivators who have just broken through and haven't yet found their own path. All martial artists who have found their own path cannot enter; once they do, their martial arts paths clash, even at the pinnacle.
It's estimated that even they won't be able to withstand it, and their own path will collapse.
After all, too many powerful individuals perished here during the North-South War. Their mixed martial paths combined to almost influence the path of those who entered, causing their own beliefs to waver and their martial paths to collapse.
However, it doesn't have much impact on Lu Hao now. As long as he doesn't do anything reckless and trigger the power of the primordial Dao in the sky, it has nothing to do with him.
Lu Hao surveyed the battlefield before him. It wasn't much different from the outside world—scorched earth where nothing could be seen beyond the hazy grayness. Chaotic energy filled the air, limiting visibility.
The celestial source in the sky seemed somewhat obscured, as it was blocked by layers of chaotic energy flows.
Lu Hao didn't linger. He activated stealth and headed deeper into the area. He needed to determine which domain this was, otherwise he would have to flee if he encountered a ninth-rank cultivator.
Lu Hao searched for a long time without encountering any underground warriors, but he did encounter many chaotic monsters, all of which he killed. Lu Hao wondered if he had come at the wrong time, as no one was searching the King's Battleground yet. After most of the day, Lu Hao finally saw an underground warrior behind a hill ahead.
Lu Hao didn't make a move directly. Instead, he secretly watched the Earth-level martial artist, who seemed to be searching for something, and would occasionally attack the crazed monster.
After observing for a while, Lu Hao made his move. Since he hadn't seen the golden bones on the cave warrior's body, it meant that the cave warrior was only a seventh-rank martial artist. That made things simple. After Lu Hao made his move, he easily took down the cave warrior, since the gap between him and a seventh-rank martial artist was still quite large.
Having just captured him, Lu Hao hadn't even used his full power yet when the cave warrior revealed everything and asked Lu Hao which royal court he belonged to and what he was doing breaking through to the seventh-grade domain. Lu Hao only knew this time that the cave warrior mistook him for a warrior from another royal court.
He also learned his current location: this was the Battleground of Kings, a seventh-grade domain, and seventh-grade underground warriors were no ordinary people. He was a guard brought by Huai An, who was the son of a true king.
Although they are not the most authentic bloodline but only a collateral branch, they are still very powerful, and they were sent here to protect Huai'an's safety.
Now, Huai'an has sent them out to search for the ruins.
After confirming the situation, Lu Hao completely killed the seventh-grade underground cave warrior in front of him. The last seventh-grade underground cave warrior looked at Lu Hao with an incredulous expression. He did not expect Lu Hao to kill him directly.
After all, as a subordinate of the true king, he shouldn't have killed him directly. He didn't even realize that the person in front of him wasn't a caveman at all.
Apart from True Kings and Ninth Rank cultivators, most people in the restricted area had only heard of the name of the resurrected martial artist, and had no idea about their characteristics or situation.
This seventh-rank underground warrior thought Lu Hao was just someone from another royal court, so he didn't offer much resistance or try to hide anything.
After confirming that he was in the seventh-grade domain, Lu Hao was no longer in a hurry, since he was basically invincible in the seventh-grade domain.
My current mental strength is enough to support me in completing the third stage of the Golden Body Forging, but I'm short 30,000 killing points.
If I were to kill seven-rank enemies myself, I could only manage about one-tenth, which is around two or three thousand, roughly ten or so. This is much easier than killing a low-level eighth-rank enemy. I can wait until I've completed the third stage of my Golden Body training before venturing into the eighth-rank domain.
Then, by targeting those at the lower levels of the eighth rank and finding relics to enhance their spiritual power, they can quickly upgrade their golden body.
Having made up his mind, Lu Hao headed towards the location pointed out by the cave warrior.
Moreover, according to this cave warrior, there is a true king's son there. Although he is from a collateral branch, he has reached the seventh rank and has a lot of subordinates. His treatment must be quite good, and he may even possess other treasures.
