Post-Mythical Era: I don't want to die in the third reincarnation
Chapter 971 - 964: Just You Alone at Step 7
Di He suddenly said, "I always wondered how a small trading building could produce someone like you."
Actually, he really didn't care who Ding Huan was; what mattered was that Ding Huan would team up with him to acquire the chaotic rule nectar.
"Brother, I estimate that Min Zu will soon come looking for me..."
Di He waved dismissively, "What's there to fear? Is the seventh step really that formidable? I, Lao Di, won't bow to him; I guarantee I can suppress him."
Ding Huan shook his head, "Suppression isn't enough, we must eliminate them."
Di He stared at Ding Huan in surprise; this guy was even more ruthless than him.
But he still spoke candidly, "Old Qi..."
"My name is Ding Huan," Ding Huan said helplessly.
Di He replied indifferently, "I'm used to calling you Old Qi; it's all the same, all the same. You should know, defeating a Master of the Universe is easy, but killing one is likely unrealistic.
Not just for the two of us, even if a few more people join, we can't kill the Master of the Universe.
You only know our seventh step hasn't fully perfected our world rules, but do you know what a Master of the Universe can do?"
"What can they do?"
Ding Huan genuinely didn't know.
Di He laughed, "Take me for example, if I'm not your match - though that's impossible..."
Ding Huan saw Di He's annoying demeanor and was tempted to instantly unleash the Devouring God Halberd on him.
What's impossible?
In fighting, anything is possible.
"If I'm not your match and want to leave, can you stop me? Clearly, you can't.
No matter how great your abilities, you can't stop me. Because the seventh step has a secret trick, which is transforming into Heaven and Earth Rules, dissolving into the cosmos, vanishing without a trace..."
Hearing this, Ding Huan felt rather surprised.
Transforming into Heaven and Earth Rules... He seemed to have seen it twice, one of which was... Like the leather scroll master's embodiment, escaping as a rule.
And another seemed to be Lei Chou...
But transforming into rules was overly simple for him.
His world rules were constructed at will by him.
"Any Master of the Universe can also transform into rules to escape, dissolve into Heaven and Earth Rules; how can you intercept? You probably can't even find them."
Di He smugly looked at Ding Huan after finishing.
Ding Huan nodded, "Do Masters of the Universe have other means?"
He can't find transformed rules?
This was the biggest joke he'd heard.
Even if it's one of the universal laws completely integrated with the World of Gods, he could still find it.
His Barrier was specifically designed to counter those trying to flee, including those transforming into Heaven and Earth Rules.
"Is it not enough to transform into rules and escape? What more is needed?" Di He asked, puzzled, looking at Ding Huan.
"Let's go, let's find a place to reckon with Min Zu," Ding Huan said and left swiftly, having already seen the cultivators of Great Holy Dao approaching.
Di He didn't understand Ding Huan's intentions, but he didn't care either.
After taking down Min Zu and that so-called Seventh Step Great Dao, there's still time to go with Ding Huan to procure chaotic rule nectar.
A stick of incense later, Ding Huan stopped at a flat gravel ground.
Upon arriving, Ding Huan immediately began setting up a trapping array.
Of course, the trapping array was for Min Zu and that Seventh Step Master of the Universe to see; he was truly setting up the Void Barrier.
"We need to fight quickly; there's no shortage of good things here," Di He reminded Ding Huan.
Although this place wasn't really suitable for an ambush, he chose not to waste time reminding Ding Huan to search for a new location.
As long as he's there, he can guarantee Ding Huan won't be killed.
Regarding capturing and killing a Seventh Step of the Great Dao, he admitted he couldn't manage.
Unable to do it himself, why remind Ding Huan?
"I know there's a wealth of good stuff; that's exactly why I chose this place," Ding Huan casually replied.
He and Di He saw no less than a dozen treasures along the way.
But the two had discerning eyes and weren't particularly interested in them.
More importantly, he didn't want to waste time.
Though these places lacked primitive chaos, various chaotic auras lingered; magical treasures and Tao Fruits evolved from chaos were remarkably evident amidst these chaotic aura.
Ding Huan hadn't finished setting up the Barrier when Min Zu's message came through.
Ding Huan promptly provided the position to Min Zu.
In less than half a stick of incense, Min Zu and his short-statured junior arrived in front of Ding Huan and Di He.
"Qi Daoist, did you know Gods Plaza has a bounty on you?" Min Zu loudly asked upon arrival.
Ding Huan looked at Min Zu, bewildered, "Why have a bounty on me?"
"Ah, Lou Poyi claims you're impersonating Qi Sha. But don't worry, I have a way to help you."
Min Zu had long scanned Ding Huan with Divine Will; he felt Lou Poyi was likely talking nonsense, Ding Huan didn't seem to be an impersonator.
Even Ji Sixin said Ding Huan acquired a Heavenly Nine Dao Bamboo, which seemed very plausible.
Not only was Min Zu observing Ding Huan, but also Daoist Jiang.
He was convinced that Qi Sha's surrounding Taoist Rhythm and these Heaven and Earth Rules were genuinely integrated - indeed not an impersonation.
Of course, there's also the possibility that in these two or three years, Qi Sha already comprehended and fused with these Heaven and Earth Rules.
Ding Huan shook his head, "No need for help, Dao Friend Min, where is the chaos rule syrup and the supreme Dao vein you mentioned?"
Min Zu's tone turned heavy, "If I don't clear your suspicion, being with you might implicate my Great Taoist Sect.
Dao Friend Qi, let me introduce you, this is our Great Taoist Sect's Daoist Jiang..."
"You're King Jiang Jian?" Ding Huan was not surprised.
Since this short man beside Min Zu is the seventh-step Master of the Universe, he is most likely King Jiang Jian.
Min Zu introduced King Jiang Jian to let Ding Huan know not to resist, there is a Master of the Universe here.
He didn't expect such an indifferent reaction from Ding Huan.
King Jiang Jian's face turned cold. It was one thing when Qi Sha didn't know his name before.
Now knowing his name, and still daring to call him by name, is simply courting death.
Min Zu's face also darkened, "Qi Sha, I'm trying to help you, is this your attitude upon seeing the Dao Master of our Great Taoist Sect?"
Ding Huan said calmly, "If we get along, we cooperate; if not, we part ways, is your Great Taoist Sect my grandson? Do I need to show you respect?
Or if your Great Taoist Sect's grandson sees me, do I need to give a red envelope?"
"You're courting death..." King Jiang Jian was furious.
He had never seen such an arrogant ant, daring to behave like this in front of a Master of the Universe...
No, he had seen it before. Back then, Mo Wuji and Lan Xiaobu were just as arrogant. Hehe, where are they now?
King Jiang Jian's domain violently erupted, while a white ice spear hovered behind him.
Ding Huan was no novice; with a sweep of his Divine Will, he knew this ice spear was a naturally grown treasure, at least a post-chaos supreme treasure.
These Masters of the Universe have plenty of good stuff.
Thinking about if he could open King Jiang Jian's world...
Ding Huan suddenly felt his fighting spirit surge.
The domain hadn't even fully erupted, but the Devouring God Halberd was already in his hand.
Min Zu's eyes turned cold, a black giant banner appeared above his head:
"I've seen many arrogant people, I'm afraid that even back then Mo Wuji and Lan Xiaobu's arrogance can't compare to yours."
He was genuinely amused with anger.
Qi Sha is just a fifth-step Daoist, even with the Heaven-Opening Nine Dao Bamboo, he's still an ant in front of a Master of the Universe.
He couldn't understand where Qi Sha got the confidence to dare take action against Daoist Jiang?
To say Qi Sha is ignorant, this guy had always been very measured in his acts of killing; it was impossible for him to be this ignorant...
Min Zu thought of Qi Sha's style and suddenly came to a realization, "You're really not Qi Sha?"
The person in front of him was definitely not Qi Sha, as Qi Sha wouldn't have such courage.
King Jiang Jian's voice calmed down, "He is indeed not Qi Sha. Even if Qi Sha had obtained the Heaven-Opening Nine Dao Bamboo, he couldn't withstand my domain, yet he did, although I haven't used my full power."
Knowing Ding Huan wasn't Qi Sha, Min Zu's anger actually subsided quite a bit:
"Let's assume you are Qi Sha, you should know that I've come for your Dao Pearl. Hand over all your Dao Pearls, and I'll spare you this time."
Ding Huan chuckled, "I not only have Dao Pearls, but I also have the Great Dao Disc, would you like that too?"
Hearing Ding Huan's words, Min Zu's eyes lit up.
Don't be fooled by him always searching for Dao Pearls and Dao Pillars, deep down he most desired the Great Dao Disc.
This chaos supreme treasure is the Great Dao Disc, and the Great Dao Disc is also the main body.
Dao Pearls and Dao Pillars are just parts of the Great Dao Disc; even if he collected all the Dao Pearls and Dao Pillars, he still needs the Great Dao Disc to refine this Magical Treasure.
"Senior Brother, you hold off the red-haired one, I'll handle this kid..."
Before Min Zu could finish, King Jiang Jian calmly said:
"This person can kill the sixth-step Ju Chen, and can withstand my domain suppression, he's not a simple figure. You go deal with the red-haired one, I'll teach him a lesson..."
As he spoke, he unleashed his domain without any reservation.
He wanted to show Ding Huan what a Master of the Universe is.
But as his domain just erupted, an equally strong Taoist Aura swept over.
That was also a Tao Domain.
Boom!
Two violent Taoist Rhythms clashed in the void, endless laws shattered, causing space to quiver.
This was because space was stable; otherwise, the space would have been ripped with cracks from such a powerful domain impact.
"A seventh-step Master of the Universe? How is that possible?" King Jiang Jian stared wide-eyed at Di He who unleashed the domain.
Just now Ding Huan hadn't even moved, nor did he attack, yet his domain was blocked by Di He's domain.
Di He chuckled disdainfully, "A guy who hasn't even settled his own world's Heaven and Earth Rules, talking about the seventh step every day, is it amusing? As if the whole universe only you have a lame seventh step."
Min Zu was also dumbfounded.
He had brought King Jiang Jian to deal with Ding Huan and Di He both, having already written them off in his mind.
Who knew beside this fake Qi Sha, there was a real seventh-step being, this...
Why does my gut feel something bad is going to happen?
"Min Zu, now you can individually come to me for the Great Dao Disc and Dao Pearls." Ding Huan's Devouring God Halberd swung out a half-arc.
The fierce killing intent and domain fused together, mercilessly blasting towards Min Zu.
Today, Min Zu wanted his belongings, he likewise wanted Min Zu's.
(Good night, Dao Friend!)
