Feeling that she was safe and sound, Ji Sixin could hardly believe it.

However, she immediately saw Di He being blasted away, which moved her deeply.

Di He could have chosen not to intervene, but he was truly loyal.

"Huh, Eighth Step of Great Dao?" Xin Changkong exclaimed in surprise, then focused on Di He.

He was puzzled, could those people at the Chaos Center of the World of Gods really let cultivators outside of Chaos step into the Eighth Step?

Just as Xin Changkong was about to lock onto Di He to inquire further, a familiar Daoist Rhythm aura overflowed.

It was the Daoist Rhythm aura of his Human Mortal Path.

Even if he wanted to deal with Di He, Xin Changkong wouldn't linger at this moment. In a flash, he vanished from his location.

If what Ji Sixin said was true, that Xin Xi Er has cultivated the Human Mortal Path here, then that familiar Daoist Rhythm aura must indeed be from Xin Xi Er.

Even though he knew Xin Xi Er's Taoist Aura appeared very coincidentally, he couldn't help but go.

Not only did he have to go, but he also had to arrive at the first possible moment.

If someone could make Xin Xi Er's Daoist Rhythm aura appear at any time, it meant Xin Xi Er could be taken away at any moment.

If Xin Xi Er went missing, resulting in his Human Mortal Path being discovered by others, he would inevitably face a formidable opponent in the future.

How could Xin Changkong tolerate such a situation?

If he could endure it, he wouldn't have gone to hunt down that ant who cultivated the Mortal Dao.

Ji Sixin was still in a daze when a voice came near her ear: "Quickly leave the World of Gods, go anywhere, just don't come back here..."

"Dad..."

Ji Sixin was stunned, wasn't that the voice of her father Ji Yuanan?

How could it be? Was her father still alive?

No one answered her, it seemed like just an illusion.

Di He, however, recovered sooner and said urgently:

"Landlord, I must leave here quickly. That guy left surely for something important; once he's done, he'll likely return immediately to kill us."

After speaking, he turned and swiftly fled, intending to take Hou Hen and Shi Wanrong quickly to the Fog Realm.

This was certainly not a place to linger.

He said this also to remind Ji Sixin to escape quickly.

"Yes, I must leave here quickly too." Ji Sixin came to her senses; whether it was her father warning her or not, this place must be abandoned.

With such a powerful support for Xin Xi Er, she will definitely seek revenge in the future.

...

Fog Realm Ducheng.

Two women stood outside Ducheng.

"Aunt Wei, was it here that my dad killed Ducheng's second strongest Wen Chendao back then?"

The speaker was a woman in a light blue dress, her voice filled with joy.

She had wanted to come here for a long time.

The woman beside her had a slightly taller figure, wearing a purple dress; she glanced at the word Ducheng and nodded: "Yes, it's here, Ducheng."

These two were Qi Manwei and Ding Nianhuan, seeking cultivation resources in the Fog Realm.

Over the years, they had visited many places similar to Ducheng, met many strong cultivators, and gained quite a few opportunities.

In the Fog Realm, as long as you dare to step out of Cultivation City into those independent spatial rules, you can always find opportunities.

But it's very dangerous.

Many never returned after leaving Cultivation City.

Qi Manwei cultivated the Origin Dao Technique, while Nian Huan's cultivation was even more straightforward with Ding Huan's Great Universe Technique.

Though neither had stepped into the Seventh Step of the Great Dao, their combat prowess was genuinely strong.

In recent years, they had encountered many strong cultivators in various Tao Cities.

They had seen many Seventh Step cultivators too.

Nian Huan was now at the Sixth Step of the Great Dao, and four Seventh Steps had already fallen by her hand.

Qi Manwei was almost at the Sixth Step of the Great Dao, and more Seventh Steps had died by her hand.

Compared to Nian Huan, Qi Manwei's combat experience was more robust.

Nian Huan, under Ding Huan's guidance with the Great Universe Technique, had surged in strength and was no longer the easily overlooked nobody she once was.

"Sister Wei, let's temporarily stay in Ducheng; my dad will definitely come here." Nian Huan suggested.

Qi Manwei nodded in agreement; this was their planned course.

Upon reaching the True Saint perfection, Nian Huan stepping into the Sixth Step, their cultivation had hit a plateau.

The root cause was the shortage of top-grade Dao Veins.

Neither Nian Huan nor Qi Manwei were the type to act ruthlessly for cultivation resources.

Thus, without top-grade Dao Veins, they wouldn't resort to robbery.

Just as Nian Huan and Qi Manwei brought people into Ducheng, Di He arrived outside Ducheng with Shi Wanrong and Hou Hen.

However, Di He did not enter Ducheng; he was shocked to see the two approaching people.

One of them he recognized as Wen Shi.

How could Wen Shi have left the Endless Void Platform?

Breaking out of the Endless Void Platform would mean entering a space without rules.

To reach the place where a few strong cultivators were trapped, viewing the Creation Dao Principle helplessly, one would have to pass through a space without rules.

He was able to pass through the Endless Void Canyon for the second time thanks to Ding Huan guiding him, escaping from the space without rules and, in passing, obtaining a Creation Dao Principle, advancing to the Eighth Step.

How did Wen Shi come out?

Wen Shi is indeed strong, but in that place, without someone stronger leading the way, Wen Shi could never walk out from that boundless void.

Immediately, his gaze shifted to the guy beside Wen Shi, whose face looked a bit pale, as if he had crawled out from a grave.

At the sight of this guy, Di He felt as though the blood in his body was about to freeze.

What kind of Dao has this person cultivated to be so powerful?

Di He considered himself resilient, otherwise stepping into the Eighth Step and constantly encountering beings stronger than him would definitely shatter his Dao Thought.

"Is it you?"

Wen Shi also saw Di He.

Di He was previously with Ding Huan, how could he forget?

"Where are the people with you?" Wen Shi blocked Di He the moment he saw him.

Ding Huan had tricked him into obtaining a pile of Dao Veins and even injured him, which was no small grudge.

Di He took a deep breath; he was unafraid of Wen Shi.

No matter how strong Wen Shi was, he was merely at the Seventh Step of the Great Dao, whereas Di He was now at the Eighth Step and could easily crush Wen Shi.

But the guy beside Wen Shi clearly wasn't someone to mess with.

"Brother Ding Huan has some matters to attend to outside. If you are looking for Brother Ding Huan, I will tell you when he returns," Di He softened his tone slightly.

The appearance of Xin Changkong told Di He that even if he had reached the Eighth Step, there were still many stronger than him.

The person before him might be the second Xin Changkong.

"Why bother talking to him? Just capture him and perform a Soul Search." The guy with the pale face beside Wen Shi suddenly spoke, his voice as harsh and grating as metal scraping against metal.

Wen Shi hesitated for a moment and said, "Senior Fang, this person has quite a background, should we..."

Wen Shi wasn't apprehensive of Di He but feared Ding Huan.

If Ding Huan were here, it would be easier because there were those who could deal with him.

But now, Ding Huan wasn't here.

Ding Huan was definitely stronger than him, but more importantly, Ding Huan had great potential.

Wen Shi was confident he wasn't mistaken.

If he were to kill Di He now, it would be hard to resolve things peacefully should he encounter Ding Huan in the future.

Wen Shi had always been ruthless, never a kind soul.

But he also wasn't reckless.

In the Vast Universe, anything could happen.

Moreover, at a certain level of cultivation, everyone would converge in one place.

So long as Ding Huan wasn't dead, he would eventually face him.

Killing Di He now would undoubtedly lead to trouble when meeting Ding Huan later.

Wen Shi dared not offend the person beside him either.

This man was named Fang Luo, a powerful figure Wen Shi encountered after entering the space without rules; without Fang Luo, he would have been lost in that chaotic space, never having the chance to return to Ducheng in the Fog Realm.

"No need, just perform a Soul Search." Fang Luo's tone carried an additional chill.

There was no word for hesitation or apprehension in his dictionary, only killing and Soul Search.

Wen Shi felt helpless but could only act according to Fang Luo's words.

At that moment, a gentle voice came through, "Wan Rong, I didn't expect to meet you here. How is your father?"

Shi Wanrong was tensely watching Wen Shi and Fang Luo, especially Fang Luo, who gave her a dangerous feeling, so she hadn't noticed someone approaching from the side.

Upon hearing someone calling her, she turned her head and, seeing Lan Xiaobu, exclaimed with delight, "Brother Lan... Senior Lan..."

She hadn't expected to see Lan Xiaobu here.

Originally, by habit, she was to call him Brother Lan, but remembering that Lan Xiaobu was of her father's generation, calling him brother seemed inappropriate.

Lan Xiaobu was also slightly surprised.

Shi Wanrong had left the Great Universe with him; only unexpected events at the World of Gods had caused many to scatter.

Shi Wanrong had followed them into the Fog Realm and later stayed with her father, Shi Changxing.

He hadn't expected after so many years of returning to the Fog Realm, to meet Shi Wanrong in Ducheng.

"Just call me Xiao Bu. How is your father?" Lan Xiaobu cherished old friendships, his tone becoming much kinder.

Shi Wanrong's eyes reddened at the inquiry about her father, unable to utter a word.

According to Ding Huan, her father had been hunted down back then and later disappeared in the Fog Realm.

After a while, she managed, "My father disappeared in the Fog Realm, and there's no news of him now."

"Lan Xiaobu..." Wen Shi looked at Lan Xiaobu, his eyes full of caution.

At the same time, his Divine Will swept out.

With Lan Xiaobu here, Mo Wuji might be nearby.

But after searching for a long time, he couldn't find Mo Wuji.

Lan Xiaobu paid no attention to Wen Shi. Upon hearing Shi Wanrong's words, he realized something must have happened to Shi Changxing and consoled her:

"Don't worry, the rules of heaven and earth in the Fog Realm operate independently, making it hard to locate someone. Perhaps he is secluding somewhere."

"Is this the Lan Xiaobu you mentioned?" Fang Luo's gaze lingered on Lan Xiaobu for a moment before suddenly stepping forward without warning, reaching out to grab Lan Xiaobu.

Wen Shi instinctively wanted to intercept him, but then he stopped himself.
