Post-Mythical Era: I don't want to die in the third reincarnation
Chapter 974 - 967: One Slash Kills Zhenze
Watching Jiang Jianwang leave with the Ice Dragon, Ding Huan breathed a sigh of relief.
He knew he had lost.
If Jiang Jianwang had insisted on staying to kill him, even that heavily injured Ice Dragon would have been unstoppable for him.
Ding Huan was well aware of why Jiang Jianwang chose not to stay. Both Jiang Jianwang and he knew that even if Jiang Jianwang could kill him, he could still shatter Jiang Jianwang's Tao Foundation before his death.
Because he could still self-destruct his Taoist world with his Daoist thoughts.
Jiang Jianwang didn't find it worth it, so he left.
Ding Huan leaned on the Breaking Tribulation Blade, his body covered in blood, standing motionless.
The vitality from the Life Tree had already, in that instant, nourished his entire body, rapidly restoring his life force and flesh.
Although he still had Cosmic Essence, to Ding Huan, the Life Tree was his best healing treasure.
In the distance, Di He's corpse was still bleeding continuously, severed by Jiang Jianwang's Taoist Rhythm, unable to move an inch even now.
Even Di He's Primordial Spirit was trapped in that tiny space.
Di He still had some vague consciousness, but it was becoming increasingly blurred.
He couldn't save himself and could only wait for Ding Huan to help him.
Even he was calculated against by Jiang Jianwang, and considering the terrifying power when that Dao Pearl exploded, it was a miracle Ding Huan managed to escape.
Deep down, he was filled with regret.
He shouldn't have retreated; this small mistake led to his impending fall.
Time passed slowly, and the chaotic, shattered Heaven and Earth Laws in this space gradually calmed down.
A person lay in two halves on the gray-brown sandy ground, while another person stood motionless, leaning on a blade.
The scene slowly froze, appearing somewhat desolate.
After an unknown period, a thin figure stumbled over.
Although Ding Huan didn't open his eyes, he knew who it was.
It was someone he recognized, the Chairman Ji of the Gods Trading Building, Ji Sixin.
"Qi Sha..." That figure exclaimed in shock at the sight of Ding Huan standing covered in blood, leaning on a blade.
Her gaze then shifted to the body of Di He, split in two. Wasn't this Di He the one who teamed up with Qi Sha?
Were they killed by someone?
No, Qi Sha still had a breath, but it was extremely weak, seemingly in the process of recovery.
The only ones who wanted to kill Qi Sha were those six Masters of the Universe, but if those six wanted to kill Qi Sha, it would not be possible for Qi Sha to still be alive.
Ji Sixin's gaze fell on the shattered Black Banner.
"Wan Ze Banner?" Ji Sixin's pupils contracted slightly.
The Wan Ze Banner was Min Zu's lifeline, and its presence here indicated that Min Zu's fate was dire.
No matter how powerful Qi Sha was, how could he have killed Min Zu?
No, I must escape.
Although Ji Sixin hesitated for just a moment, another figure rushed in, blocking her way.
The one blocking Ji Sixin was a man in black, whose Taoist Aura indicated he was also at the Sixth Step of the Great Dao.
Although he was slightly better off than Ji Sixin, his Daoist Rhythm was equally disordered.
Clearly, he was also seriously injured, seemingly stronger than Ji Sixin, but not by much.
Ji Sixin was not very nervous about being blocked.
Although she couldn't defeat him, it wouldn't be easy for him to lock her down and kill her either.
"Chairman Ji, why bother? Just hand over the stuff, and we'll all be better for it..."
The man in black chuckled as he spoke, but when he saw Ji Sixin not continuing to flee, he began examining the scene before him. Immediately, his eyes showed shock, and he unconsciously stepped back.
Although the Space Law here had recovered a lot, the fragments of the Law assured him that at least a Seventh Step Master of the Universe had taken action here.
Otherwise, there would not have been so many fragments of the Law.
Below the Seventh Step, no matter how strong, you couldn't shatter the Heaven and Earth Laws.
"Are you Qi Sha?" The man in black finally recognized Ding Huan, standing motionless in place.
Ding Huan still didn't react, putting the man's mind at ease. Suddenly he saw the Wan Ze Banner. As for Di He, split in two in the distance, he was as good as air in the man's eyes.
This was the scene of a Fighting duel.
Seeing Ding Huan remain motionless, the man in black was certain Ding Huan was heavily injured.
"You are actually a Master of the Universe?" The man in black sneered, suddenly grabbing the Chaos Needle in his hand.
Since Min Zu's Wan Ze Banner was here, it signified Min Zu had long since fallen.
Could someone who wasn't a Master of the Universe kill Min Zu? Could someone who wasn't a Master of the Universe have shattered the spatial law like this?
Although Gong Siyi was also injured now, killing an immobile person was still no problem.
"Gong Siyi, what are you planning to do?" Ji Sixin shouted.
"Naturally, to kill Qi Sha, this person killed Ju Chen, the lord of our Gods Hall; everyone there wanted him dead....."
After saying this, Gong Siyi had pounced on Ding Huan, the Chaos Needle in his hand aimed directly at Ding Huan's forehead.
If someone at the Seventh Step is killed while alive, tearing open their Purple Mansion is a direct way to break into their Taoist world with a measure of success.
In reality, who at the Seventh Step would remain motionless and let you kill them?
In Gong Siyi's eyes, Qi Sha's Taoist energy was fading now, unable to move at all, clearly the best moment to kill Qi Sha.
No matter if Qi Sha was at the Seventh Step or not, if he could open Qi Sha's world, then...
Gong Siyi became excited beyond measure at the thought of at least a dozen Dao Pearls in Qi Sha's world.
Just not sure if Qi Sha has opened Min Zu's world. If he has, there could be over fifty Dao Pearls on him.
Ju Chen's number of Dao Pearls might not be clear to others, but Gong Siyi knows it very well.
And Qi Sha took all the Dao Pearls from Ju Chen.
"Gong Siyi, you are unworthy of being a Hall Master, actually launching a sneak attack..." Ji Sixin sneered, while she raised a dozen black lights to strike at Gong Siyi's back.
She then retreated quickly.
Even though Gong Siyi is severely injured, she is still no match for him, and can only continue to flee.
If she can obtain a treasure in the Chaos Zone, allowing her to reach the seventh step, then the Gods Trading Building could establish a foothold in the World of Gods.
She also knew that the chance was very slim.
Gong Siyi grunted, not even turning his head, raising a swath of shield curtains.
This woman will be dealt with later; now, he must kill Qi Sha first.
But as soon as he raised the shield curtain, he felt a death aura engulfing his entire body.
An icy chill penetrated to his bones, making him shiver all over.
"Crack!" He clearly felt his Protective Dao Rhythm being torn apart, as a terrifying sword light slanted to strike him.
The sword light wasn't fast, even quite slow, but it sealed all his vitality, rendering him immobile in that instant.
He recognized that sword; it was the one Qi Sha had held before.
"Qi Sha, stop..."
Gong Siyi trembled uncontrollably as he saw the long knife Qi Sha wielded.
He frantically burned his Essence Blood, trying to break free from Ding Huan's Killing Domain and Dao Rhythm Domain.
At this moment, he regretted getting involved with Ji Sixin. Had he not been distracted by her sneak attack, he wouldn't have been locked by Qi Sha's Killing Domain.
Ji Sixin also stopped retreating further, shockingly watching Qi Sha grip the long knife, slowly hacking towards Gong Siyi.
The knife wasn't fast.
Yet, Gong Siyi was locked by Ding Huan's Sword Intent Domain, utterly unable to move.
So strong...
Ji Sixin stared in horror at the Breaking Tribulation Blade.
When Gong Siyi clashed with her, he wasn't lightly injured.
But for Gong Siyi to keep chasing her meant he still had about thirty or forty percent of his strength.
Even so, he was locked by Qi Sha's Killing Domain. How strong must he be?
Could Qi Sha truly be at the seventh step?
After frantically burning Essence Blood, Gong Siyi finally broke free from Ding Huan's Killing Domain restraint.
Then he had no other thoughts, desperately retreating.
"Puff!" The Breaking Tribulation Blade slashed through the void, and Gong Siyi's body was cleaved into two pieces by Ding Huan's blade.
It's said to be two pieces because Gong Siyi moved his body in the instant the Breaking Tribulation Blade tore through him.
"Thud!"
Gong Siyi's two halves fell from the void...
After executing this strike, Ding Huan's mouth again bled, yet he stood motionless once more.
However, the aura around him fluctuated more intensely, the dense vitality flowing, even Ji Sixin could clearly sense it.
Ji Sixin immediately rushed over, locking the Primordial Spirit of Gong Siyi who was attempting to escape.
"Ji Sixin, let me go, we haven't become mortal enemies yet..." Gong Siyi's Primordial Spirit was locked by Ji Sixin, temporarily unable to break free.
Ji Sixin acted as if she didn't hear, starting to set up a Concealing Protection Array.
In just the time it takes an incense stick to burn, this space was concealed by Ji Sixin.
Not only was this space concealed, but Ji Sixin also set up Space Restrictions to prevent any information from being sent out.
Let Gong Siyi go?
Ha, does he think Ji Sixin is a fool?
Gong Siyi is the Vice Hall Master of Gods Island. Letting his Primordial Spirit go would be like erecting a tombstone for the Gods Trading Building.
Although Ju Chen was the Lord of the Gods Hall, he was slain by Qi Sha, and that's a rightful thing.
But Gong Siyi is the Vice Hall Master of the Gods Hall. Even if he was in the wrong, with the Vice Hall Master slain, Lou Poyi will likely tear apart any reconciliation.
After taking care of everything, Ji Sixin once again surveyed the space.
The countless Law Fragments in the shattered space suggest a Master of the Universe battle occurred here.
Min Zu is strong, but surely not a Master of the Universe.
Could it have been King Jiangjian?
The more Ji Sixin thought, the more likely it seemed. As a Master of the Universe, King Jiangjian didn't attend the Universe Master Council at the Gods Plaza, claiming to be in seclusion.
She absolutely wouldn't believe in such a thing.
King Jiangjian couldn't possibly miss the opening of the Chaos Zone. He must have secretly arrived with Min Zu, planning something shady.
King Jiangjian's corpse wasn't seen, it's very likely he left gravely injured.
To drive away King Jiangjian, how strong would that take?
Ji Sixin's gaze fell on Di He, knowing he was Qi Sha's friend.
This fake Qi Sha was originally someone she wanted to befriend, so she might as well give a hand now.
Thinking this, Ji Sixin raised her hand to fuse Di He's two severed halves, then left a Tao Fruit behind.
However, Di He's body was torn by extreme Dao Rhythm, and even though Ji Sixin physically joined the two halves, it was useless in reality.
