Chapter 1138 A Gift from Huo Jun

The three of them still wanted to say something, but Ding Hao waved his hand and stopped talking about the matter. He said in an unquestionable tone, “It’s settled. From now on, the rise and fall of God’s Palace are all up to you. Of course, if any of you dares to disobey me, I will take action.”

The three Divine Princes were immediately speechless.

At this time, a report came from below that Huo Jun’s personal disciple had arrived.

“Bring him here directly,” Ding Hao said.

Flames flickered, and the space tactical deployment flashed. Ding Busan and Ding Busi appeared on the top of the divine mountain with a figure. This time, it was the two of them who went to bring Huo Jun’s personal disciple in person, for fear that someone would play tricks behind the scenes.

Ding Hao’s eyes fell on that figure, and he couldn’t help but exclaim.

“It’s him?”

Everyone had searched high and low for this young man, but he showed up on his own. Countless people had been looking for him. Unexpectedly, he had such good fortune and luck to become Huo Jun’s successor. This was really good news.

…

Hua Mojian was a little nervous.

He had never seen the guy who had forcibly accepted him as his disciple again since a few months ago. Thinking of what Huo Jun said the last time he had left, Hua Mojian had a bad feeling in his heart. Those words were like a will, making him feel uneasy.

In the beginning, Hua Mojian was extremely resistant to Huo Jun and even hostile to him. But as time went by, he gradually felt Huo Jun’s concern for him, which was similar to a father’s care. Although Huo Jun’s words were always fierce and he seemed to be torturing him when he taught him martial arts skills, Hua Mojian felt his heart full of expectation through his cold words and cold appearance.

Hua Mojian finally confirmed that Huo Jun was doing this for his sake and was sparing no effort to support and train him.

People’s hearts were made of flesh.

Gradually, Hua Mojian acknowledged Huo Jun as his master from the bottom of his heart. He still called him an old bastard on the surface, resisted fiercely, and did not compromise at all. He would take advantage of any possible situation to make Huo Jun angry. However, in his heart, he had already begun to treat Huo Jun as a family member and one of the most respectable people.

Just as Hua Mojian was wondering if he should seriously kowtow to Huo Jun and call him master, Huo Jun suddenly said goodbye to him, saying that he had something important to do. He left a lot of instructions and never came back after his departure.

Hua Mojian had been waiting in the Divine Capital of God’s Palace for several months. Suddenly, everything changed. It was said that the Fake God Emperor, Huo Jun, and the others had all died, and the forces in God’s Palace had been constantly changing. However, the people of Huo Jun’s faction had always been regarded as a thorn in the flesh and under strict supervision. As Huo Jun’s direct disciples, Hua Mojian and some other trusted subordinates of Huo Jun were directly sent to prison. If it weren’t for the fact that all parties had put all their effort and energy into fighting for the position of God Emperor and had no time to deal with them, they would have been tortured to death hundreds of times by now.

But today, the prison cell was suddenly opened, and the sun shone in. Hua Mojian was taken out of the prison and brought to the divine mountain.

On the way, Hua Mojian learned from other people’s discussions that the new emperor had acceded.

“Who would it be?” He guessed in his heart, but he didn’t pay much attention to it. As long as he completed the task that his master gave him, it was enough.

Just as he reached the peak of the divine mountain, he suddenly heard a familiar voice. Hua Mojian had been calm. He raised his head and saw the three Divine Princes standing in front of him with solemn and dignified expressions. He knew that the person in the middle of them must be the new God Emperor.

Hua Mojian had seen the Fake God Emperor from a distance with Huo Jun, and he had a deep impression of him. However, the aura of the new emperor was even more unfathomable than that of the Fake God Emperor. Unfortunately, a cluster of dense mist blocked the new emperor’s face, so Hua Mojian could not tell his age and real identity at all.

…

“Huo Jun did have some tricks up his sleeve. Hua Mojian’s strength has actually reached the Saint level. Looks like Huo Jun had paid quite a price for this personal disciple!”

Ding Hao sighed to himself.

When he saw that the alleged personal disciple of Huo Jun was actually Hua Mojian, who had been missing for a long time, Ding Hao was overjoyed. Now he could tell Hua Huai’an about the news of his son’s well-being. When Hua Mojian was missing, his cultivation was only in the Martial King Realm. Now, he had reached the Martial Sage Realm in such a short time. It must be that Huo Jun had used some kind of shortcut, but this was also a fortune that countless people could only envy.

If Hua Huai’an knew this, he would probably wake up laughing even in his dreams.

Moreover, Ding Hao could also see that Hua Mojian’s constitution had changed a lot, which was close to that of a Congenital Fire Spirit Body. In the future, Huo Mojian would improve by leaps and bounds when he practiced the fire cultivation method. His potential was too terrifying. If he was lucky, it would not be a problem for him to reach the God Realm in the future.

However, Ding Hao didn’t want to recognize this young lad for the time being.

The moment he saw Hua Mojian, he decided to cover his face and not reveal his identity for the moment. In the following days, he would train this young man properly, who would perhaps have enough ability to take charge alone.

Ding Hao changed his voice slightly and asked, “Are you Huo Jun’s personal disciple?”

“I am,” Hua Mojian replied with his head held high, not kneeling.

The Divine Grace’s God’s Palace had invaded the Land of Infinity and killed many people. Hua Mojian had experienced troubled times, so he was naturally hostile to God’s Palace. He joined God’s Palace because of Huo Jun’s coercion, and he was not willing to do so. Therefore, he instinctively did not want to kneel and pay his respect to the new God Emperor.

“Your master… has died.” Ding Hao told the news.

Hua Mojian was stunned when he heard this. After that, everyone could see that his body trembled slightly. He slowly lowered his head. Both of his hands were clenched into fists. Even his knuckles had turned white. It seemed that he was forcefully suppressing something. Clearly, he was doing his best to restrain his emotions.

After a long while, he finally calmed down.

Then, he raised his head, looked at Ding Hao, and asked word by word in an unprecedented firm tone, “Who… who killed my master?”

Ding Hao sighed. He didn’t hide anything and briefly told Hua Mojian what had happened.

Hua Mojian was stunned after hearing his words.

He didn’t expect that things would develop in this way. “Master actually…”

Hua Mojian’s body trembled slightly again, and he gritted his teeth. When he heard the news of Huo Jun’s death, he felt as if the sky had collapsed. He had cursed Huo Jun to death countless times in the past, but when he learned that Huo Jun was dead, he felt a deep pain.

Hua Mojian originally wanted to avenge his master, but he didn’t expect Huo Jun to commit suicide.

After listening to this legendary story, Hua Mojian suddenly wanted to go back in time so that he would have a chance to kneel in front of Huo Jun, respectfully carry out the ritual as his personal disciple, and clearly call him master.

It was a pity that none of this could be done now.

Hua Mojian felt that he was not good enough to be Huo Jun’s disciple.

Ding Hao looked at him and asked seriously, “Your master was an extraordinary man between heaven and earth. Before he died, he also mentioned you, so I won’t make things difficult for you. Your divine identity remains and you are still a disciple of God’s Palace. Moreover, I’ll specially give you permission to learn and train with the three Regents. It can be regarded as fulfilling your master’s last wish. Are you willing to accept it?”

Hua Mojian lowered his head, thought for a moment, and said, “Yes.”

A quarter ago, Hua Mojian was still thinking about how to leave God’s Palace and return to the Northern Region of the Land of Infinity as soon as possible. He changed his mind in an instant after hearing about Huo Jun’s deeds. He knew that even for the master that he got for free, he had to stay.

Everyone had their own responsibilities to bear.

As for him, he had to repay Huo Jun for his kindness.

After a pause, he said, “Your Majesty, before my master left, he told me one thing. He told me to tell your Majesty in person when the new emperor ascends the throne. There is something that he asked me to hand over to Your Majesty.”

As soon as he said that, Ding Hao, Ding Xinghua, and the others were slightly surprised and curious.

“This is what my master asked me to hand over to Your Majesty.” Hua Mojian opened his palm, and a ball of flame flickered. There was something similar to a scroll within, shining brightly. It instantly expanded from the size of a hair to the thickness of an arm and was handed over.

Hua Mojian had kept this thing carefully and nourished it with the Southern Underworld Ignis in his body, so it was not found and confiscated by the prison guards when he was thrown into the prison.

Everyone’s eyes fell on the object.

It was something like a scroll painting. It was antique, containing the essence of time, and its workmanship was extremely excellent.

Ding Hao took it and was about to open it to have a look. But at this time, Ding Xinghua seemed to have thought of something. He suddenly exclaimed, “This is… I know what it is. I have seen this scroll before. This is the formation map of the Heavenly Illusionary Fatal Formation of the Ten Galaxies, which is the key to controlling the most powerful tactical deployment outside the Divine Capital!”

“What?”

Ding Hao was shocked. Looking at this scroll painting, he was completely tempted.

He had seen the Heavenly Illusionary Fatal Formation of the Ten Galaxies before. It was definitely the most wonderful and magnificent tactical deployment that Ding Hao had ever witnessed. Even with the vision of the Saber Master and the Sword Master, they could not figure out its mystery, which showed how horrifying it was.

This time, Ding Hao didn’t have time to sort out the library of God’s Palace when he ascended the throne. He had coveted the formation map and thought that he would find it in the library, but he didn’t expect that the real one would be possessed by Hua Mojian.

Ding Hao slowly unfolded the scroll, but there was no pattern on it. Instead, it was pitch-black. There were sparkles of light and flowing silver light on it. At first glance, it looked like someone had captured a portion of the galaxy and sealed it in the scroll.

“This is a Divine Artifact, not a simple scroll painting…” Ding Hao seemed to have realized something.

The scene of galaxies derived from the map was the ultimacy of the Heavenly Illusionary Fatal Formation of the Ten Galaxies. With Ding Hao’s cultivation, it would take him some time to fully comprehend the ultimacy of this tactical deployment, even if he had the formation map.

He put away the scroll, waiting to study it in the future.

All of the others were a little confused.

Logically speaking, this formation map should be possessed by the Fake God Emperor. No matter how much Huo Jun was favored, it was impossible for him to get it. But why did Huo Jun hand it over through Hua Mojian? Where did Huo Jun get this scroll painting? Why did he ask Hua Mojian to hand it over to the new emperor?

Could he have guessed that the new emperor would be Ding Hao?
