Post-Mythical Era: I don't want to die in the third reincarnation
Chapter 961 - 954: Step 5 – Deficiency Without Form
Qi Sha's act of publicly executing the Lord Ju Chen of the Gods Hall in the streets of Tao City spread throughout the entire World of Gods in the shortest time.
What was strange was that the Gods Hall did not immediately go to war with the Trading Building.
No one knew the specifics of the situation.
Only Ji Sixin understood what was going on.
She was searching for Qi Sha; it was absolutely necessary to find Qi Sha regarding this issue.
Since it was meaningless to go to the Gods Hall and apologize, she didn't go there to humiliate herself, just finding Qi Sha would suffice.
With Qi Sha around, as long as the Universe Saint Lou Poyi of the Gods Hall did not take action, they had the advantage over the Trading Building.
At the same time, she also understood why the Gods Hall had not come to trouble her Trading Building.
The Gods Hall was awaiting the return of the Hall Master, Lou Poyi.
Without the Master of the Universe, the current strength of the Gods Hall made it unrealistic to resist the Trading Building.
Not to mention Ji Sixin, the Sage of True Law and even Qi Sha, there seemed to be no one in the Gods Hall who could handle them.
But no matter how formidable Ji Sixin of the Trading Building was, facing the Master of the Universe, she'd still have to kneel.
Once the Master of the Universe Lou Poyi returned, that would be when the Gods Hall sought out the Trading Building.
And the time of Lou Poyi's return coincided with the opening of the Chaos Zone, with only three years remaining.
The more anxious Ji Sixin became, the harder it was for her to find Ding Huan.
After killing Qi Sha, Ding Huan seemed to have vanished into thin air, disappearing without a trace.
If it weren't for the fact that the exit barrier of the World of Gods had no record of Qi Sha leaving, she would have suspected that Qi Sha had escaped after offending the Gods Hall.
Fortunately, she received news that Qi Sha had already teamed up with the small Taoist Sect of Xingluo Sword Dao, preparing to enter the Chaos Zone of Xingluo Sword Dao together.
As long as the three-year period ended, she would wait in the Gods Plaza.
Ji Sixin could only pin her hopes on this. If after three years, Qi Sha didn't go to the Chaos Zone, she would have to accept her fate.
With Qi Sha present, no matter if the Trading Building was a match for the Gods Hall, she had her arguments.
Without Qi Sha, no matter what the Trading Building said, they would be at a disadvantage.
....
No matter if anyone was looking for him, at this moment, Ding Huan was crazily comprehending the Heaven and Earth Dao.
In his various Law Star Rivers, the laws were frantically expanding…
Because he had sufficient cultivation resources, the primordial energy at his place of seclusion had already materialized.
At the same time, Ding Huan vaguely had a feeling.
For most people, Wuque was probably just on the surface.
Whether in the World of Gods or elsewhere, how many people could truly achieve the Great Dao without flaws?
Even the Heaven and Earth Rules have their flaws.
Ding Huan believed he could attest to the Great Dao without flaws.
Because the biggest difference between him and other cultivators was that he had not only constructed his own Cosmic World.
The Heaven and Earth Rules within his Cosmic World, the countless laws, were not related to the outside world but were entirely evolved and constructed by himself.
The World of Gods was at the very center of the vast Universe, or rather it was the origin of the vast Universe.
He came to this place not to let his world replicate the Heaven and Earth Rules here.
But to broaden his horizons with the Heaven and Earth Rules here, making the Law Star River of his Great Dao World more perfect.
Various attribute Law Star Rivers, Vitality Law Star River, various Divine Skills Law Star River, sinking, void, reincarnation, myriad poisons, oblivion, cause and effect…
Ding Huan was completely immersed in the frenzied perfection of his own Cosmic Law Star River.
He was striving to make his Law Star River completely perfect, without the slightest blemish or flaw.
In Ding Huan's mind, only then could it best interpret the saint without flaws.
He would be the strongest saint without flaws.
Time slowly passed, Ding Huan's aura surged wildly in this environment of perfect comprehension.
One year, two years…
As the third year was drawing to a close, Ding Huan suddenly awoke!
What was going on?
He seemed to be able to step into being a saint without flaws at any moment, yet he was just missing a slight bit.
This isn't right, something is very wrong.
Ding Huan stopped perfecting his own Cosmic Law Star River.
Could it be that he needed to first perfect his Chaos Law Sea before advancing to the Tao Universe fifth step, aiming for the saint without flaws?
After contemplating for half a month, Ding Huan did not get an answer.
The Great Universe Technique continued its course, and Ding Huan carefully observed the laws condensed each time he perfected the Law Star River.
In just two years, he had condensed various attribute laws, different Divine Skills laws, various Heaven and Earth Dao laws…
In fact, when he was attesting to the saint of words, his Law Star River was practically perfected.
If the Law Star River wasn't perfected, it would be impossible to perfectly condense the attribute Dao Principle.
The difference was that his Great Universe Technique could still allow him to continuously expand the various laws within his Law Star River.
That being the case, why did he always feel it wasn't enough?
Just because of attesting to the saint without flaws?
He seemed to have walked into a dead end. According to his comprehension and understanding of the laws of all things, even if he condensed laws for a billion years, his Law Star River wouldn't be in the most perfect state.
Because as long as he wished, he could condense new laws to fill his Law Star River.
In the vast universe, there never was a completely flawless Great Dao rule.
Others stepping into being a saint without flaws believe their own Dao Principle is without flaws, but that is merely their belief.
If it were truly Wuque, Qi Sha wouldn't have been so easily defeated by him.
Thus, Wuque does not signify true perfection, but rather a Great Dao that, like him, can continuously progress at all times.
The so-called Wuque Saints in the World of Gods, most likely, did not grasp this concept.
What they understood as Wuque merely pertained to their own Great Dao, not the vast Cosmic Avenue.
In that case, why should he continue to pursue the perfection of a Wuque Saint?
The moon has its phases of fullness and waning; the Dao has its major and minor defects.
It is simply impossible for there to be Wuque.
At this moment, the Dao Rhythm around Ding Huan became more pronounced, the vast and majestic Dao Sound filled the space where Ding Huan was.
When he once created the Great Universe Technique, he realized that "The greatest form is without shape, the greatest vessel is unfilled, the greatest sound is faint, the greatest image is formless, the Dao is hidden and nameless."
Today, he finally understood that he had always been at the initial stage of realization.
The Universe's vastness is boundless, or rather, the true form of the Dao is that the Universe continues to expand.
Once the Universe stops expanding, that's not completion and perfection; it's a sign of stagnation, a precursor to withering.
Yet he wanted to confine the Universe, find its edge, settle the Dao, and seek its ultimate perfection.
The stars are born silently and shapelessly, only then hiding infinite mysteries and Cosmic Laws...
Otherwise, what's the difference from a stagnant pool?
"My Dao is flawed yet boundless and formless!"
"My Dao, condensed, brings forth the Universe!"
"My Dao, today, steps into the Fifth Stage!"
"Boom!"
A Dao Vein erupted, the vastness akin to the cosmos tearing, with primordial energy pouring onto Ding Huan.
If not for Ding Huan's barrier, this dry sea would have long been enveloped by rich primordial energy.
Ding Huan's aura surged madly.
The Law Star River in the Cosmic World shone even brighter, and the cosmic starry sky was even more vast and profound.
In the depths of the Chaos Law Sea, streams of chaotic aura naturally emerged.
Ding Huan completely forgot the fact that his cultivation was soaring; his mind settled in the depths of the Chaos Law Sea, joyfully feeling the naturally generated Source of Chaos.
After he stepped into the Fifth Stage of a Wuque Saint, his Chaos Law Sea naturally began to generate Chaos.
From today on, even if he didn't cultivate, his Chaos Law Sea would constantly expand, and the Chaos Law would continue to perfect itself.
And his Cosmic World would likewise keep expanding outward.
So this is what the Universe truly is.
The Fifth Stage of a Wuque Saint.
Upon stepping into the Fifth Stage of a Wuque Saint, Ding Huan finally understood what Wuque truly was.
Wuque is not that the Great Dao is without defects, but rather it is boundless and shapeless.
Only continuous improvement and progress is the true Wuque.
If one ever believes their Great Dao is completely perfected, truly Wuque, that Great Dao has also reached its end, with no further possibility for progress.
Ding Huan couldn't help but let out a long howl, raising his hand to tear open his barrier.
Although he achieved the Fifth Stage of a Wuque Saint, his Dao Idea was flawed yet shapeless.
Ding Huan was confident that his flawed yet shapeless Dao had already surpassed nearly all Wuque Saints.
Unless the others, like him, could realize what true Wuque is.
But the likelihood of that was very small.
It's not that others don't understand this principle, but the Great Dao has limited their further understanding.
Because they truly felt their Great Dao was perfect, they stepped into the Fifth Stage of a Wuque Saint.
Only the Great Universe Technique allowed him to constantly progress and perfect his Dao, which is the true flawed yet shapeless, and the true Fifth Stage Wuque Saint.
With a Dust Removal Technique, Ding Huan washed away the mottled aura from his body, gathering the unused Dao Vein as he stepped out of the crevice, fully integrated with the aura of Heaven and Earth.
His Divine Will fell upon the center of his Chaos Law Sea, where his Chaos Treasure was still evolving, but much faster than before.
Considering the time, he could now head to the Gods Plaza to meet Nan Xianer.
He wondered if, after killing Ju Chen, the Trading Building and Gods Hall had started a fight.
Regardless of whether they were fighting, Ding Huan felt it had nothing to do with him.
He now had full confidence that he could easily kill a True Law Saint.
Before achieving Wuque Saint, he was quite wary of True Law Saints, but upon understanding what Wuque truly is, True Law Saints seemed trivial.
He was uncertain whether, with his current power, he could challenge the Master of the Universe.
Ding Huan believed that this time, heading to the Gods Plaza, he might very well face the Master of the Universe.
Whether he could contend with the Master of the Universe, he would only know after the battle.
If he couldn't win, he would retreat, without affecting Nan Xianer and others.
After all, his demanding Nan Xianer to cooperate with him was known to many.
What kind of character Qi Sha had, who didn't know?
If he could fight, he would forcefully enter the Chaos to check the situation.
Ding Huan believed that after witnessing the true center of the Universe's Chaos, his Dao would experience another qualitative leap.
Perhaps that would be the moment he steps into the True Law Saint stage.
Controlling the Cosmic Pot, Ding Huan headed straight for the Tao City without any concealment.
Where he secluded himself wasn't far from the Tao City, and now heading to the Gods Plaza, using the teleportation array from the Tao City was the most convenient.
(Goodnight, fellow Daoist!)
