"Yes." Although Ji Sixin only has a Primordial Spirit, she was still trembling with excitement.

If she hadn't met Ding Huan, she would have undoubtedly died.

Because Yang Tian told her that her Primordial Spirit was very suitable for the Artifact Spirit of his Magical Treasure. Once she fused with the Magical Treasure, she would definitely lose her intelligence.

At the same time, she was utterly shocked in her heart.

She didn't know what Ding Huan's current strength was.

But she was very clear about Yang Tian's strength; after all, he was a Seventh Step of the Great Dao Master of the Universe.

Yet, in front of Yang Tian, she had no chance to fight back.

Yang Tian was the strongest Master of the Universe she had ever seen, and such a strong person was actually killed by Ding Huan, who also tore open a world.

She didn't know if the process of Ding Huan killing Yang Tian was difficult, but seeing Ding Huan seemed uninjured, she guessed that Ding Huan's strength probably crushed Yang Tian.

Back when she first saw Ding Huan, she knew that Ding Huan was extraordinary.

Later, she decisively chose to side with Ding Huan.

Just as she expected, back then, Ding Huan was able to seriously injure Lou Poyi and Jiang Jianwang, and now he crushed Yang Tian, whom she believed to be almost unbeatable, terrifyingly strong.

Yi Ju also calmed down, and his thoughts were no longer chaotic.

He quickly stepped forward, bowed, and said, "Yi Ju thanks Brother Ding for the life-saving grace. If Brother Ding hadn't intervened, I would have surely died at this person's hands."

Even though he tried hard to keep himself calm.

But his heart was still in turmoil.

Ding Huan was simply too strong.

He could confirm that Ding Huan's current strength was several levels stronger than when he killed Wen Chendao.

Yang Tian's strength must be stronger than Wen Shi's; Ding Huan can easily crush Yang Tian, meaning Wen Shi could no longer compare to Ding Huan.

Luckily, he did not initially choose to go against Ding Huan.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to wait until today for Ding Huan to save him.

Thinking of Wen Chendao, Gu Wufeng, Luo Kaisi, those guys, their bones must be gone by now.

Ji Sixin's Primordial Spirit adhered to the Dao Wood reserved for nourishing souls before she spoke with lingering fear, "Back then, Yang Tian brought Cosmic Silk to the World of Gods Trading Building for auction.

Originally, this wasn't a big deal, but later when Brother Di He and I rescued Hou Hen from Luo's and Jiang Jianwang's hands, we learned that Cosmic Silk was something Luo desperately wanted..."

"Luo wants Cosmic Silk?" Ding Huan asked in surprise.

He knew Ji Sixin had rescued Hou Hen, but back then, he had just met his daughter and hadn't inquired about many things.

Ji Sixin said, "Yes, at the time I thought that even though Luo hadn't entered the Seventh Step of the Great Dao Master of the Universe, he already had the strength to contend with Di He.

Once this person stepped into the Seventh Step of the Great Dao Master of the Universe, wouldn't he easily crush Brother Di He and me? And Cosmic Silk was the key treasure for Luo to step into the Seventh Step.

So I wanted to do some tricks to prevent Luo from buying Cosmic Silk normally.

But Xi Er from my World of Gods Trading Building told me that if I wanted the Trading Building to grow big, I shouldn't do such things.

I listened to Xi Er and prepared some Top-grade Dao Veins to try to outbid for Cosmic Silk.

To my surprise, Luo left Dao City and didn't return to bid on Cosmic Silk.

As a result, the Trading Building won Cosmic Silk at an extremely low price, which offended Yang Tian..."

Ding Huan asked, puzzled, "Luo didn't come to bid on Cosmic Silk, what does it have to do with your Trading Building?"

Ji Sixin sighed, "Yang Tian believed that the reason no one came to bid on Cosmic Silk was that our Trading Building had obstructed, making many people afraid to bid."

Upon hearing this, Ding Huan had some guesses.

This information might have been released by Luo to make trouble for the Trading Building through Yang Tian.

Yi Ju hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Brother Ding, Yang Tian took Cosmic Silk from me. His intended pursuit this time is still because of Cosmic Silk."

"Tell me about it." Ding Huan immediately showed interest.

Cosmic Silk is not a simple thing; it's part of the Cosmic Dao Network formed during the Universe's establishment.

If he used the Creation Dao Principle and Cosmic Silk when upgrading the Breaking Tribulation Blade, it might allow the blade to reach the threshold of a Chaos Treasure.

Yi Ju said somewhat helplessly, "I was really fortunate to acquire Cosmic Silk, I got it at an auction in Ducheng many years ago.

Later, I kept it without using it and eventually traded it to Yang Tian at a trade expo.

Unexpectedly, after so many years, that guy wants me to trace the origin of Cosmic Silk, but where do I find that?"

Ding Huan looked at Yang Tian's Primordial Spirit, which he had bound, "Yang Tian, can you tell me why you are now looking for the origin of Cosmic Silk?"

"If you let me go, I'll tell you." Yang Tian's heart moved slightly, and he felt a strong desire to survive.

Ding Huan, too lazy to talk nonsense with this guy, raised his hand in a sweep, and Yang Tian's head flew up, sealed inside a wooden box.

Immediately, Ding Huan slapped Yang Tian's Primordial Spirit.

The powerful Taoist Aura, like a sharp blade, fiercely entered Yang Tian's Sea of Consciousness without any hesitation.

The pain of the ripping Divine Soul sent Yang Tian's Primordial Spirit into a harsh scream, "Mr. Ding, have mercy, I'll tell you, don't Soul Search me..."

Ding Huan ignored Yang Tian and continued with the Soul Search.

How dare a mere Primordial Spirit threaten him?

Only after half a day, Ding Huan finally withdrew his hand with heavy thoughts, and simultaneously threw out flames, turning Yang Tian into the void.

He felt he might have encountered trouble.

Yang Tian's background seemed quite unusual indeed.

But within an instant, Ding Huan regained his composure.

What of it being unusual? Had he not offended enough powerful figures?

The leather scroll's master, the existence deep in the Endless Void Canyon, the existence at the center of Chaos in the World of Gods...

And also the Taoist Hand Seal he split with a single knife...

Which of these people is not a formidable power?

Isn't Ding Huan alive and well now?

Throwing Yang Tian's head into the ring, Ding Huan let go of all his concerns.

"Brother Ding, I'm afraid the Trading Building of the Gods is in danger. Please make a decision for me..." Ji Sixin's voice was somewhat fearful and uneasy.

She longs for her physical body not to be destroyed.

If her body were still intact, she could recover in the shortest time.

As Ding Huan was about to speak, a vast Taoist Aura soared skyward, the terrifying Dao momentum suppressed Ji Sixin so she couldn't utter a word.

Yi Ju stared blankly at the place where the Taoist Aura rose. This...

He himself was at the Seventh Step of the Great Dao and knew clearly it was the aura of stepping into the Eighth Step of the Great Dao.

Even though he hadn't reached the Eighth Step, it was his first time seeing it.

However, the Dao momentum of the Eighth Step, Yi Ju was certain he wouldn't mistake it.

Ding Huan was overjoyed; Di He was finally proving his worth by advancing to the Eighth Step of the Great Dao.

Looking at his situation, it seemed entering the Eighth Step was just a matter of time.

"Let's go and have a look."

Just as Ding Huan was about to move forward, Yi Ju hurriedly stopped him: "Mr. Ding, it's the formidable aura of someone about to step into the Eighth Step of the Great Dao, if we go, it would be, it would be..."

Yi Ju wanted to gently say to Ding Huan not to go.

But for a moment, he couldn't find gentler words to express it.

Ding Huan waved his hand and sent the Dao Wood housing Ji Sixin's Primordial Spirit into the world, and rushed forward.

Seeing this, Yi Ju could only follow Ding Huan.

If not for Ding Huan, he would have already been dead.

Yi Ju knew something about Ding Huan's nature.

If he fled alone now, Ding Huan likely wouldn't respect him in the future.

Arriving outside the barrier where Di He was secluded, the aura of Di He's advancement to the Eighth Step grew clearer.

Yi Ju was somewhat uneasy due to his own Seventh Step Dao Proof in the Fog Realm.

If Ding Huan wasn't here, he would have tried to retreat.

When the Dao momentum peaked, clusters of purple auspicious clouds descended, covering the barrier space of Di He's retreat.

Ding Huan thought to himself that Shi Wanrong should be able to gain substantial benefits this time.

Once the purple clouds completely dissipated, Di He rushed out of the barrier, the sound of his laughter making Yi Ju's heart race.

"Forward..."

Seeing Di He rush out, Yi Ju was about to step forward and greet him.

But he found Di He had already reached Ding Huan: "Brother Ding Huan, I've finally stepped into the Eighth Step. Without you, I fear I would never have managed it."

Di He's excitement was still uncontrollable.

Yi Ju, with his mouth open, could not say a word further, only now realizing that Ding Huan indeed knew this figure of the Eighth Step of the Great Dao.

Furthermore, they addressed each other as brothers.

Noticing Shi Wanrong was still immersed in comprehension and hadn't come out, Ding Huan asked, "Brother, what insights do you have after stepping into the Eighth Step?"

Just at that moment, Shi Wanrong emerged, excitedly bowing to Di He: "Thank you, senior, for your great favor."

Di He stepped into the Eighth Step using the Creation Dao Principle, allowing Shi Wanrong to understand the formation and Creation Dao Principle during it, which was indeed a grand favor.

Di He waved his hand: "Just a trivial matter."

His face showed slight embarrassment:

"Brother Ding Huan, I used to think the Seventh Step was the Master of the Universe. Now I know that the Seventh Step of the Great Dao means being a Saint of the Universe, not the Master of the Universe."

The formerly worshipful expression of Yi Ju froze upon hearing Di He's words.

Are these from the World of Gods?

And they confused the Seventh Step of the Great Dao with the Master of the Universe?

Ding Huan wasn't bothered, his Dao had already surpassed this Universe.

What Di He termed the Universe Saint at the Seventh Step was merely recognition by this Cosmic Law.

His Dao is proven by evolving his own Dao Principles, so whether others claim the Seventh Step as the Universe Saint or Master of the Universe has nothing to do with his Seventh Step.

"Senior, what about the Eighth Step?" Shi Wanrong couldn't help but inquire.

Yi Ju also looked at Di He with longing.

Unlike Ding Huan, their Dao was closely tied to this Heaven and Earth Rules, Di He's understanding of the Eighth Step would shape their future perception.

Di He touched his head, looking a bit sheepish: "It turns out the Eighth Step is the true Eternal Saint."

Previously, stepping into the Creation Dao was seen as the beginning of becoming an Eternal Saint.

Only now have they realized that the Eternal Saint isn't a mere stage, but a certain level.

Stepping into the Creation Dao realm is far from being an Eternal Saint.

Ding Huan slightly furrowed his brows: "Then do you feel you are eternal?"

Di He nodded: "As long as this Universe does not perish, I seem to be eternal."

Indeed, eternality must be measured by the existence of this Universe.

In Ding Huan's view, as long as life is connected externally, even to a Universe, it cannot be called eternal.

(Good night, fellow Daoist!)
