Lan Xihe stared at Ding Huan, shocked.

So strong?

She knew very well that no matter how she cultivated in the Little Heavenly Ruins, she couldn't possibly contend with Qu Beige.

Not to mention Qu Beige, even she could sweep through this plane.

Where did Ding Huan cultivate back? How could he be so powerful?

No, she was hurt by the cosmic grindstone, her Taoist rhythm was scattered, and at this rate, her Tao foundation was going to be corroded.

But the person in front of her was also hurt by the cosmic grindstone, why did he seem unaffected?

He could even counterattack and slay Qu Beige after being injured?

Clearly, there must be a method to break the corrosion of the grindstone's Dao rhythm on the Tao foundation.

Thinking that Ding Huan might have solved the Dao rhythm corrosion of the cosmic grindstone.

Lan Xihe's eyes immediately lit up, and she even put aside the matter of how Ding Huan managed to kill Qu Beige.

"Qin Qin, what's the name of that young cultivator? Did they call him Mr. Ding?" Lan Xihe asked softly to Qin Qin beside her.

Qin Qin hadn't recovered from the shock either.

She knew Ding Huan's strength.

Back then, when she went to find the Light Star Land with Ding Huan, he had to avoid even the strong ones who trapped Qiao Qianhe, how could he possibly defeat Qu Beige?

It was rumored that Qu Beige had already reached some creation realm, like the seventh or eighth step of the Great Dao?

They also said Qu Beige could casually transform an entire universe, his cultivation was supreme.

Ding Huan actually killed him?

What level is this?

Being so shocked, Qin Qin didn't even respond to Lan Xihe's soft inquiry for a moment.

It wasn't until Lan Xihe called her a second time that she realized, gasped in surprise.

"Sect Master, what did you say?" Qin Qin recovered.

"What's the name of that young cultivator?"

"Ding Huan."

"Where does he come from? How long have you known him? How do you get along with him?"

A series of questions were thrown out, leaving Qin Qin completely unsure of how to answer.

How would she know where Ding Huan came from?

She knew Ding Huan because he saved her.

Although after spending some time with Ding Huan, she felt he was very unusual, and she had developed a good impression of him.

But Ding Huan obviously didn't care about her, even rejected her overtures actively.

Now the woman following Ding Huan was clearly more outstanding than her.

Thinking about it, Qin Qin couldn't help but glance at Jia Baihe, sighing inwardly.

A bit self-pitying.

Seeing Qin Qin once again ignore her inquiry, Lan Xihe felt a bit angry:

"Qin Qin, you're familiar with Ding Huan, could you ask him to help heal me?"

"Sect Master, he saved my life, I've always owed him, asking him to help, this, this…"

Qin Qin responded somewhat tactfully, though she was internally reluctant to ask Ding Huan.

Previously, she helped Lan Xihe and was later hurt by Qu Beige's domain.

Throughout the process, Ding Huan did not help her, nor did he speak out to stop it.

It showed that Ding Huan was quite displeased with her sect master from Tianhuan Palace.

If he didn't kill the sect master, it would already be a good thing, asking him to save someone?

She knew she couldn't say such a thing under any circumstances.

Seeing Qin Qin remain silent, Lan Xihe felt anxious, knowing she couldn't continue to press.

She could only urgently think of a solution.

At this moment, Ding Huan was staring stunningly at the space before him.

The void rift torn open by the cosmic grindstone's self-destruct was gradually recovering, yet a grindstone quietly floated in front of Ding Huan.

Didn't the grindstone self-destruct earlier?

Why is it still here?

No matter if the grindstone self-destructed or not, Ding Huan raised his hand, enveloping the grindstone in hundreds of restrictions, then grasped it in his hand.

A vast aura was immediately captured by Ding Huan.

Ding Huan stared at the grindstone in his hand, amazed.

Is this the cosmic grindstone?

How does this grindstone not seem like a replica at all?

If someone could create such a replica, that person might be from a time before chaos.

Such a powerful and vast aura, its level could potentially rival his Eternal God Wheel.

Whether the cosmic grindstone is a replica or not, this grindstone most likely is genuine.

Ding Huan raised his hand to wrap the cosmic grindstone in restrictions and sent it into his own world, then turned to walk towards Guan Huan and the others.

"Brother Ding Huan, wasn't Qu Beige the seventh or even the eighth step of the Great Dao?"

Guan Huan came forward excitedly.

Ding Huan's realm was lower than his, but his strength was indeed very strong.

Back then, even his Creation Realm strength wasn't a match for Ding Huan.

No matter how strong Ding Huan is, he cannot surpass levels to deal with the Seventh Step of the Dao.

"Yes, this guy is indeed at the Seventh Step of the Dao, but I can take him down now. As for the reason, we can discuss it slowly when we have some free time.

This is not a good place for cultivation anyway, you and I will leave together later."

Ding Huan patted Guan Huan.

Yi Jie snorted: "So what about the Seventh Step of the Dao? Even the Eighth Step of the Dao has to obey under Mr. Huan's hand."

It was trying hard to find a sense of existence.

Yi Jie was most worried about Mr. Huan kicking it away.

If Mr. Huan didn't want it anymore, that would be the end.

"Fine, there's no point in staying here, I've long wanted to leave."

"Lao Guan, what's going on with this Little Heavenly Ruins? There are combat marks everywhere? At this rate, the Little Heavenly Ruins shouldn't last much longer."

The Little Heavenly Ruins is full of combat scars because these continuous fights have caused the Heaven and Earth Rules of the Little Heavenly Ruins to be extremely unstable now.

This shouldn't have been done by Qu Beige alone.

Guan Huan sighed: "After you left, it wasn't long before the Heavenly Ruins Dao Court was divided among several Daoist masters.

Wu Zhu was severely injured and died, which serves him right. He didn't even know his own limits and dared to join forces with people like Chang Yun.

Wu Zhu was killed, and we also left the Heavenly Abyss of Tian Huan Palace, each finding a place to continue cultivation."

Ding Huan nodded, this Wu Zhu indeed deserved it.

Previously, they had a good alliance with them, but then he wanted to stab them in the back and join forces with people like Chang Yun who are ruthless.

Now, he ended up dead, his Dao vanished, and the Heavenly Ruins Dao Court was seized.

"After Wu Zhu was killed, the Little Heavenly Ruins was peaceful for a while. Because of another matter, conflict erupted again, related to Da Mo Daojun..."

Da Mo Daojun?

If Guan Huan hadn't mentioned this, Ding Huan would have forgotten Da Mo Daojun.

This guy still has a task that he had assigned.

"Da Mo Daojun stole a superior Dao Vein from Zuo Qiong, the Daoist master of Ji Yuan Dao Court. As a result, he was hunted by Zuo Qiong. Da Mo Daojun deliberately fled to Daoist Meng's closed-training place."

No wonder Zuo Qiong could reach the false Fourth Step, turns out this guy had a superior Dao Vein, hidden very deeply.

Don't look at how Ding Huan now has a bunch of Dao veins.

But in the Little Heavenly Ruins, Dao veins are not simple things, especially superior Dao veins.

"If Meng Chuan hasn't reached the Fourth Step, even if teamed up with Da Mo Daojun, might not be a match for Zuo Qiong?"

Ding Huan interjected.

"Actually, at that time, Meng Chuan and Da Mo Daojun together were not weaker than Zuo Qiong. Who knew that they would be targeted by Chang Yun.

With all three almost seriously injured, Chang Yun suddenly struck and severely injured Zuo Qiong. Meng Chuan and Desert Daojun fled from the Little Heavenly Ruins.

After that, the Little Heavenly Ruins was never peaceful again. Ji Yuan Dao Court and Chang Xing Dao Court have been fighting for the territory, and it was chaos.

Later, even Da Lun Dao Court joined in, the already chaotic Little Heavenly Ruins became even more so. Almost every moment was filled with fighting, contention, slaughter, sigh..."

When Guan Huan spoke of this, he shook his head speechlessly.

"Under endless fighting, the Heaven and Earth Rules of the Little Heavenly Ruins became increasingly dilapidated. Later, Daoist Zhong and Daoist Yue proactively left the Little Heavenly Ruins, seeking a new Dao path.

I and Daoist Qiao originally intended to leave, but before we could, Qu Beige returned to the Little Heavenly Ruins. Qu Beige blocked the way out of the Little Heavenly Ruins, so we could only retreat to Da Lun Mountain..."

Guan Huan didn't mention Lan Xihuo, guessed he wanted to save face for Qin Qin.

In the destruction of the Little Heavenly Ruins, Lan Xihuo also contributed greatly.

"Since that's the case, let's leave then." Ding Huan summoned the Cosmic Pot, intending to pass through the Cosmic Wall to leave.

Back when he hadn't entered the Eternal Life Realm, he could pass through the Cosmic Wall of the Little Heavenly Ruins.

Now he is the Fourth Step Saint of Words of the Dao, controlling the Cosmic Pot to pass through the Cosmic Wall should be effortless.

"Mr. Ding, I was too reckless earlier, I apologize." Lan Xihuo knew begging Qin Qin was meaningless, she could only actively seek Ding Huan's help.

If the corrosive Dao Rhythm Law within her body wasn't removed, she would likely face more than just the problem of falling from the Seventh Step.

Ding Huan coldly stared at Lan Xihuo.

He really despised this woman.

"Brother Ding, I'm sorry, I..." Qin Qin quickly approached, bowed, and apologized.

Ding Huan knew why she had to apologize.

Lan Xihuo wanted to deal with him and Guan Huan, Qin Qin couldn't dissuade her.

In the end, when Qu Beige dealt with Lan Xihuo, Qin Qin went to help Lan Xihuo.

Ding Huan gestured, "No need to apologize, after all, you are a disciple of Tian Huan Palace, let's part ways here, see you later."

On account of Qin Qin, letting this woman live is already enough, asking him to help her heal is impossible.

"Daoist Qiao, are you leaving with us, or staying here?" Ding Huan looked at Qiao Qianhe and asked.

Qiao Qianhe barely hesitated: "Naturally, I'm leaving with Mr. Ding."

Ding Huan was about to call everyone onto the Cosmic Pot.

Lan Xihuo suddenly spoke: "Mr. Ding, do you know the World of Gods?"

World of Gods?

Ding Huan really hadn't heard of it, but he didn't continue to drive the Cosmic Pot, instead he turned to Lan Xihuo:

"Tell me about it, what kind of place is the World of Gods?"

Lan Xihuo didn't dare have any hesitation: "The World of Gods is also called the Gods Universe, heard that anyone from there can easily crush a Seventh Step of the Dao from outside..."

"You're not from the World of Gods?" Ding Huan looked at Lan Xihuo with suspicion.

Lan Xihuo smiled bitterly: "Where do I have the qualification to enter the World of Gods? But I have seen the World of Gods from afar, heard that it is the center of all Plane Universes, never having Heaven Calamities..."

(Goodnight, Daoist friend!)
