Though it was the first time the Devouring God Halberd followed Ding Huan into battle, after suppressing Qi Sha, the halberd still brimmed with a murderous aura.

Ding Huan no longer paid attention to Qi Sha, his gaze fell on the Devouring God Halberd.

What exactly did this Innate magical treasure experience during its formation?

If it hadn't been refined by him, wouldn't it have actively broken free to continue attacking Qi Sha?

Originally, Ding Huan should at this moment continue to summon the Devouring God Halberd, then through the Divine Power Domain and his own Tao Domain, fully lock Qi Sha down, making escape impossible.

But instead, Ding Huan was caught up thinking about what the Devouring God Halberd was refined into, momentarily neglecting Qi Sha.

In fact, Ding Huan didn't consider Qi Sha a threat at all.

Qi Sha sensed a rare opportunity; around his body, a golden blood mist exploded, and his figure rapidly dimmed.

Chang Ru was utterly anxious, but now she couldn't let Ding Huan perform any act. If she were to intercept Qi Sha herself, it would only hasten her demise.

Don't assume that Qi Sha had no chance against Ding Huan, yet to kill Chang Ru, it would still be effortless.

Just a subtle difference in the Great Dao, yet a vast difference in strength.

Ding Huan chuckled inwardly, seeing Qi Sha trying to flee in this situation.

If I let you, Qi Sha, escape, how can I step into the World of Gods?

Just as Chang Ru thought Qi Sha was about to escape, Qi Sha's fading silhouette regained clarity.

Simultaneously, Chang Ru perceived a terrifying aura of extreme slaughter filling the void, involuntarily shivering.

Turning her head, she saw Ding Huan standing in the void, already drawn a bow, a long arrow exuding a chilling aura of death aimed squarely at Qi Sha.

Even as a bystander, Chang Ru could nonetheless sense the deathly aura continually corroding her Divine Soul, instinctively retreating further.

Qi Sha slowly turned his body, looking at the Falling Star Arrow pointed at him, opened his mouth, yet uttered nothing.

"You want to leave?" Though Ding Huan was far away, his inquiry rang clearly in Qi Sha's ear.

Qi Sha felt his throat exceedingly dry, instinctively swallowing hard.

After a dozen breaths, he took a deep breath and tried to calm his tone:

"Mr. Ding, if you swear to let me go, I will open my world..."

Before Qi Sha's voice finished, the dreadful aura of death detonated entirely, enveloping him, binding him in place, unable to move.

Crack...

The Falling Star Arrow shattered every Law in the void, creating a harsh sound within its Magic Treasure Domain.

"Are you fearless? I am the Holy Guardian of the Trading Building, and still from the World of Gods..."

Qi Sha's voice abruptly halted, the Falling Star Arrow exploding between his brows.

The blood mist bursts forth, and in this instant, his vitality was entirely consumed by the slaughtering aura of the Falling Star Arrow.

Ding Huan had already stepped ahead of Qi Sha, projecting boundless Laws with both hands.

Ding Huan was uninterested in exchanging words with this conceited fellow.

Not only does he want me to spare him, but he also asks me to vow it — how bold can he be?

"Can you strip away my world?" Qi Sha's Primordial Spirit bound by the Falling Star Arrow stared fearfully at Ding Huan.

He could distinctly feel his world's Dao Principles being peeled away layer by layer.

If one can strip away his world's Dao Principles, open his world, why need to swear in front of him?

Earlier, his gamble for survival was the contents of his world.

Now, it's all gone.

At this moment, he was sure Ding Huan was at least a Daoist Saint.

Not just a Daoist Saint, perhaps exceeding the fifth step of Wuque Daoist Saint.

Likely a True Principle Saint.

What he couldn't fathom was, even if Ding Huan were a True Principle Saint, he wouldn't have the power to open his Wuque Saint's world.

"Are you the Master of the Universe?" Qi Sha's voice trembled with fear.

He, a Wuque Saint, dared provoke the Master of the Universe, wasn't it a death wish?

Since the Master of the Universe's Great Dao prowess and the sixth-step True Principle Saint are absolutely incomparable, the World of Gods already differentiates the Master of the Universe from ordinary Daoist Saints.

At the mention of Daoist Saints in the World of Gods now, it merely includes the fourth-step Saint of Words, the fifth-step Wuque Saint, and the sixth-step True Principle Saint.

Ding Huan can strip away his world; how could he possibly be a True Principle Saint?

"Heh, a frog at the bottom of the well." Ding Huan already tore open Qi Sha's Dao World.

Piles upon piles of items were rolled away by Ding Huan.

Simultaneously, Ding Huan swept up a Dao Principle and a drop of Essence Blood from Qi Sha.

Then Ding Huan imprinted dozens of Law seals into the void, tossing Qi Sha's Essence Blood and Dao Principle in.

Qi Sha sensed his soul and Dao thoughts being exterminated by Ding Huan's Law seals one by one, his eyes filled with despair.

This was ruthlessness beyond measure.

No chances for reincarnation, let alone rebirth.

Qi Sha, who validated his Dao with killing, had never done such a thing.

At this moment, Qi Sha hadn't considered it was not that he never did, but that he couldn't.

```

"You actually won't let me live again..." Feeling his last trace of consciousness being erased, Qi Sha was so furious he couldn't utter a complete sentence.

He, Qi Sha, had always killed others like swatting ants, and today he was wiped out like an ant himself.

As Ding Huan threw flames down one by one, Qi Sha disappeared completely from this world as if he had never existed.

"Senior Ding, you killed Qi Sha?" Chang Ru looked at Ding Huan in shock; even now, she couldn't believe it was true.

An outsider loose cultivator had killed the Killing God of the Trading Building of Gods.

Ding Huan chuckled, "He wanted to kill me, should I have let him stay for dinner instead?"

"Thank you, Senior, for saving my life." It wasn't until this moment that Chang Ru realized, hurriedly bowing in salute.

Ding Huan waved a hand, "You saved yourself. If at the time you had been like Wen Yi and wanted to kill me, you'd be a dead person now too."

Chang Ru calmed down.

Ding Huan appeared here, but his friends were nowhere to be seen.

Presumably, Ding Huan had sent his friends to a safe place, and he himself likely wanted to go to the World of Gods.

"Senior, are you going to the World of Gods?" Chang Ru asked.

Ding Huan had nothing to hide, "Indeed, I am going to the World of Gods. Do you know how to enter the World of Gods?"

After speaking, he glanced again at the spot where he'd eliminated Qi Sha.

What a pity, that guy might have had a soul token in the Trading Building of Gods; now the soul token might be shattered.

Otherwise, using this guy would have been the best means to enter the World of Gods.

Chang Ru respectfully replied, "There aren't many ways to enter the World of Gods; mainly, the Holy Sect in the World of Gods recruits disciples.

This happens once in ten thousand years, and the Holy Sect recruits those with top qualifications, like those who can sense the words of the Dao while proving the Dao without going to the World of Gods."

"How long until the next time?"

"Another six thousand years."

Chang Ru's words greatly disappointed Ding Huan. He should meet the requirements, but he couldn't possibly wait outside for six thousand years.

If worst comes to worst, he'd find a way to break through the Barrier of the World of Gods.

This barrier might be hard for others to prove themselves as the Master of the Universe, but for him, as long as no one interfered, there was a fair chance.

The reason he said there was only a fair chance was that Ding Huan suspected there was a ninety percent chance of being discovered while cracking the Barrier of the World of Gods.

"Senior, there's actually a simpler way," Chang Ru cautiously said.

"Let's hear it," Ding Huan immediately asked.

Chang Ru pointed to the place where Qi Sha had just disappeared, "Senior just made Qi Sha's God Soul annihilated, and his consciousness unable to resurrect?"

She inferred this from Qi Sha's last words.

Ding Huan could separate Qi Sha from his Great Dao, so achieving these feats wasn't surprising.

"Indeed, you're not suggesting that I impersonate Qi Sha, right? This person was a Holy Guardian of the Trading Building of Gods, likely had a Divine Soul Token."

Ding Huan naturally understood that impersonating Qi Sha to enter the World of Gods was the most convenient.

Chang Ru explained, "Senior, you're overthinking it. Actually, impersonating Qi Sha is the best. Qi Sha proved the Dao through killing and had no friends.

At the Trading Building of Gods, he only had two roles: cultivation and slaughter. Regular people stayed as far away from him as possible.

As for his Divine Soul Token, it's impossible he left it with the Trading Building of Gods.

He was merely in a cooperative relationship with the Trading Building of Gods; he killed for the Trading Building of Gods, and they provided people for him to kill and numerous cultivation resources."

Ding Huan's heart stirred; this truly seemed to be a good plan.

Chang Ru continued, "Impersonating Qi Sha is simple, the hard part is imitating Qi Sha's Daoist Rhythm and the Barrier Jade Talisman to enter the World of Gods."

Ding Huan laughed heartily, "That's a trivial matter for me."

While gathering the contents of Qi Sha's world, he had already discovered the Barrier Jade Talisman.

With Ding Huan's ability to set up barriers, he'd spotted the jade talisman for opening the barrier with just a sweep of Divine Will.

The Barrier Jade Talisman was imprinted with a mark of Qi Sha's Great Dao.

Now that Qi Sha was slain, the mark of Qi Sha's Great Dao automatically dissipated.

Ding Huan had two methods: first, simulate Qi Sha's Great Dao mark and reimprint it on the Barrier Jade Talisman.

The other method was to directly revert the talisman to its state before Qi Sha obtained it, leaving his own mark instead.

However, the second method was too conspicuous; if discovered, he might be pursued by the Master of the Universe.

The first method offered greater concealment.

Ding Huan seized the Barrier Jade Talisman, and with just a thought, a Great Dao mark identical to Qi Sha's Daoist Rhythm melded with the jade talisman.

"Senior, I have a presumptuous request."

Though Chang Ru knew she shouldn't raise it, she only had this one chance, so she had to speak up.

"You want to follow me into the World of Gods, don't you?" Ding Huan immediately grasped Chang Ru's intention.

"Yes, if it's inconvenient for you, Senior, I'll seek another way," Chang Ru replied respectfully with a bow.

"It's no inconvenience, go ahead and board the Cosmic Pot to lead the way," Ding Huan stepped onto the Cosmic Pot.

As long as Chang Ru didn't fear being exposed and resulting death, he naturally didn't mind.
