Wen Shi gave Ding Huan a meaningful look: "Since you can ask this question, it shows that you already understand that you can't comprehend the Origin Dao Principle here."

Di He suddenly realized: "Brother Ding, does comprehending the Origin Dao Principle in this place bring Great Dao's malevolent energy? That woman before..."

Ding Huan nodded: "Yes, there's indeed something wrong with the Origin Law here, but I don't know exactly what the problem is..."

Saying this, Ding Huan seemed to understand something. He looked at Wen Shi and said, "Wen Shi, you must have cultivated here before, right?"

Ding Huan deduced two things indicating that Wen Shi had cultivated here.

Since he first heard of Wen Shi's name, Wen Shi was synonymous with strength.

But Ding Huan believed that even if Wen Shi was strong, once he constructed his own Origin Law Star River, he could crush Wen Shi.

Because after constructing the Origin Law Star River, his strength rose several levels.

In fact, when he just confronted Wen Shi's Domain and used his Magical Treasure to counter a move, the strength between them seemed not much different.

If Wen Shi's strength didn't improve, that would be impossible.

For Wen Shi to make progress, he could only cultivate here.

"Right, to cultivate here, you must understand some profound truths of the Great Dao. If you are willing to team up with me, I can teach you how to cultivate here."

When Wen Shi spoke, his tone was somewhat arrogant.

This guy's Dao has issues.

With just one sentence, Ding Huan captured the flaw in Wen Shi's words.

Wen Shi knew clearly that he cannot comprehend the Origin Dao Principle here, yet he still cultivated it.

From the moment he entered, he felt that Wen Shi was somewhat unnatural.

Now that Wen Shi is willing to teach him cultivation, he just chuckled softly.

No issue; Wen Shi definitely won't teach him how to cultivate.

Also, a person like Wen Shi, accustomed to being arrogant, having a similar power to himself, was inherently not an issue.

How could he talk calmly with him after having his barrier torn apart?

Because Wen Shi knew that if he didn't speak calmly, Ding Huan would continue the confrontation.

"Then, take another of my strikes." Ding Huan stepped forward again and swung his blade.

Life and Death Blade Seal.

Among the Seven Seals of Reincarnation, the Life and Death Blade Seal has nine Death Blade Qi.

However, this time Ding Huan only unleashed one of them.

At Ding Huan's current level, one Death Blade Qi and nine make no difference at all.

The Death Blade Qi slashed out, instantly engulfing this space.

Unlike the former Death Blade Qi, this one contained not just the Descent Law but also the Endless Void Law.

The aura of death erupted.

This space seemed incapable of withstanding such a terrifying Death Blade Qi, always on the verge of exploding apart.

Di He was so frightened that he quickly retreated again.

He knew this Death Blade Qi wasn't aimed at him.

Yet he felt a kind of fear.

If the Death Blade Qi swept across the entire space, there might still be room for resistance, but the presence of Descent Law and Endless Void Law plunged all life in this space into despair.

Wen Shi's expression changed drastically; he didn't expect that Ding Huan, who initially had no intention to attack, would suddenly strike now.

Being clever by nature, he immediately understood the reason.

As expected, talking too much leads to mistakes.

The Chaos Vine erupted madly along with his own Domain.

In the next moment, Wen Shi's heart sank.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

The endless vines of Chaos Vine spreading out in the Void continually shattered, transforming into boundless Broken Law.

In this space filled with Ding Huan's murderous momentum, the Chaos Vine couldn't support Wen Shi's defensive Domain at all.

Wen Shi felt himself entering the depths of endless void again, where even his Great Dao Domain couldn't extend, leaving him to sink within.

The true 'murderous momentum fills the space; all things sink.'

Wen Shi couldn't believe it.

Ding Huan had indeed comprehended the Endless Void Law.

Many regard the space of endless void as a lawless place, but Wen Shi knew better.

Wen Shi spat out a Blood Arrow, his Dao Rhythm surged, and the next moment, the Chaos Vine seemed transformed into a Cosmic Wall, blocking all the slaughtering Saber Momentum of the sinking space.

Taking the opportunity, Wen Shi rushed to the edge of the Law-less Void Platform.

Wen Shi gasped for breath, grasping the single thread of survival within Ding Huan's Life and Death Blade Seal Divine Skills, escaping the Blade Seal space.

It was also because he knew how to survive in the Endless Void Space.

However, he had left the Chaos Vine in Ding Huan's controlled space.

Wen Shi knew that although on the surface he escaped Ding Huan's recent lethal move, in reality, he was still in a dead-end scenario.

If Ding Huan continued his attack, he had only one path to take.

That was to enter the Law-less space, and once inside, death would be inevitable for him.

Ding Huan's Life and Death Blade Seal space had locked the Chaos Vine, yet he didn't press the attack.

To press the attack now would only force Wen Shi into the Law-less space.

Whether Wen Shi lived or died in the Law-less space was unknown to Ding Huan, but there was no advantage for him.

"You win." Wen Shi laughed self-deprecatingly, looking a bit pale.

Ding Huan looked at Wen Shi calmly and said:

"I have some questions for you and need a few things; if you agree, I'll stop, and return your vine to you. Otherwise, you can enter the Law-less space yourself."

"Go ahead and ask." Wen Shi knows better than Ding Huan that entering the no-rule space now means death.

Though he's very aware that to find a path of survival and obtain the Origin Dao Principle in the future, he will probably need to enter the no-rule space.

But not now. Entering now would be certain death.

"Did your Great Dao run into trouble because of your perception of the Origin Dao Principle?" Ding Huan asked the first question.

Wen Shi nodded naturally. Ding Huan guessed it; otherwise, he wouldn't have suddenly made a move, especially targeting his weak point.

Given the circumstances, admitting it seemed better.

"Explain clearly."

"The Origin Dao Principle here is peculiar, seeming to encompass various intentions. If the Great Dao is slightly lacking, one might not even feel the intentions.

To perceive the Origin Dao Principle here, the only way is to separate those intentions from the Origin Dao Principle.

Otherwise, one is bound to be swayed by the intentions within, filling the Great Dao with various emotions, including the Dao's aggression you mentioned earlier."

Wen Shi answered very thoroughly.

Ding Huan nodded, "By this reckoning, your ability to cultivate here means you've already separated the intentions from the Origin Dao Principle?"

Wen Shi self-mocked, "You already know, what's there to say?"

"Since you haven't completely separated the intentions, why do you still strive to perceive the Origin Dao Principle here in cultivation?"

Ding Huan naturally understood that Wen Shi had not successfully separated the intentions of the Origin Dao Principle entirely; otherwise, his recent strike couldn't have reverted Wen Shi to his original form.

Wen Shi sighed, "Because I want to leave here alive and acquire the Creation Dao Principle."

"Is it the no-rule space?" Ding Huan glanced behind Wen Shi.

Wen Shi nodded, "Correct, to enter the no-rule space and survive, one must master the Origin Dao Principle; otherwise, death is inevitable."

Ding Huan didn't ask Wen Shi why; he had some guesses.

"What about the others here?"

"The people who came here with me, many encountered various issues after perceiving the Origin Dao Principle.

Some stored their things with me before seeking opportunities in the no-rule space, while others went directly."

Before entering the no-rule space, storing belongings with Wen Shi made sense to Ding Huan.

After all, perishing in the no-rule space meant the world would be annihilated there, and even through Reincarnation, one wouldn't recover their possessions.

By leaving their belongings with Wen Shi, there might be a chance to retrieve them in the future.

Even if they couldn't get them back, it could still forge good karma.

Ding Huan recalled the Great Saint Min Yuan.

He had heard the man mention that his riches were due to helping others store their belongings.

However, many had entrusted Min Yuan with their possessions, but the people who could come here were limited.

"What's your relationship with Lan Xiaobu and Mo Wuji?"

"It's average, we each have our own territories, never interfering with each other."

From this, Ding Huan deduced that Wen Shi might not know where Mo Wuji and Lan Xiaobu had gone.

"One last thing, I need a hundred Top-grade Dao Veins, ten paired veins among them." Ding Huan asked boldly.

Wen Shi was sure to bargain, so Ding Huan aimed for a greater request up front.

To Ding Huan's surprise, Wen Shi decisively tossed a ring to him, "Here are eighty Top-grade Dao Veins and ten paired veins."

Ding Huan took the ring, mouth agape.

What was there to say?

Did he ask for too few?

Wen Shi simply gazed at Ding Huan, saying nothing.

Ding Huan nodded, pocketing the ring, "Alright, your vine is returned to you, I wish you good fortune, farewell."

He refrained from reneging; it would be pointless.

After Ding Huan left, Wen Shi immediately set up a barrier.

He was pondering on that single strike of Ding Huan's.

Without perceiving the Origin Dao Principle, delivering that strike was impossible.

But if the Origin Dao Principle was perceived, why was Ding Huan unaffected in the slightest?

Convinced Ding Huan wouldn't teach him, Wen Shi would have approached to ask if it were otherwise.

Yet soon, Wen Shi returned to the Void Platform to continue perceiving the Origin Dao Principle.

He needed to quickly enter the no-rule space or risk staying here forever.

Once he acquired the Creation Dao Principle, his struggles would become trivial.

The Origin Dao Principle is the most exquisite Great Dao Rule and also the most terrifying Great Dao toxin.

"Brother Ding, that old guy is truly wealthy." Di He couldn't help but sigh.

He'd never heard of a hundred Top-grade Dao Veins, much less owned one.

In the World of Gods, Dao Veins were counted individually.

This old guy Wen Shi was calculating by the hundreds.

"This is for you." Ding Huan handed out a ring, sharing twenty Top-grade Dao Veins with Di He.

Di He joyfully accepted, "Are we going to the no-rule space now?"

"No rush, there's still the King of Carefree, Luo Yun. He holds a grudge, and I have to eliminate the root."

Eliminating the root was one reason; Ding Huan also simply wanted to kill Luo Yun and explore his world.

Top-grade Dao Veins are something nobody would find too much.

(Goodnight, fellow Daoist!)
