But what about the Chaos Creatures?

Hasn't he encountered Chaos Creatures before?

The owner of the leather scroll should be a Chaos Creature, right, and yet couldn't do anything to him?

And what about the Zhu Sun that allied with him, aren't they also Chaos Creatures? And they came to join him?

Not to mention, the Chaos Treasure he disassembled, wasn't its most primordial bloodline Dao Principle a Chaos Creature's?

Didn't he reverse the Law within the Chaos Law Sea to strip away the most primal bloodline Dao Principle...

At this thought, Ding Huan felt as if a brilliant light exploded in his mind.

If he could reverse the Chaos Law to disassemble a Chaos Treasure, why couldn't he use the same method to strip away the Killing Dao Rhythm within himself?

This was such a simple question, yet he hadn't thought of it, which indicated that his mind was being obscured and blinded.

This was not the Forgetting Dao Principle, but it was even more imperceptible than the Forgetting Dao Principle.

It seemed that what the owner of that hand seal left on him wasn't just the Killing Dao Rhythm, but also a terrifying Dao Rhythm of mind-obscuring.

Ding Huan couldn't afford to wait any longer, fearing that if he did, he would become confused again.

It seemed he had to enter the Chaos Law Sea.

Entering the Chaos Law Sea might indeed reveal his secrets of the Tao, but if he could strip away all the Killing Dao Rhythms once he's in the Chaos Law Sea—

and leave all the Killing Dao Rhythms and any Dao Rhythms not belonging to him in the Chaos Law Sea, would there still be a concern of them being revealed?

His previous concerns were definitely due to his mind being obscured, which resulted in the Killing Dao Rhythms still not being entirely stripped away from him up to this point.

No task is without risk, especially when facing a top-tier expert that might have been born with the Chaos itself.

If he didn't have confidence in his Cosmic Avenue World, how could he elevate his Great Dao further?

Ding Huan hesitated no longer and directly stepped into his Tao Universe World, landing in the center of the Chaos Law Sea.

At the same time, Ding Huan erected Chaos Barriers, confining the space he occupied completely.

Under the Great Universe Technique Circulation, the Killing Dao Rhythm Law on his body was reversed by Ding Huan. With each new Dao Rhythm Law comprehended by Ding Huan, the Laws within his Law Star River also began to increase.

One by one, the Great Dao Rules from ancient times were stripped away by Ding Huan.

Those impeccable Great Dao Rules opened up an entirely new window of the Great Dao in front of Ding Huan.

Though the Killing Dao Rhythms eroding Ding Huan's body did not weaken in the slightest, Ding Huan seemed oblivious.

He was completely immersed in these ancient Vast Great Dao Rules.

In Ding Huan's eyes, every Law had flaws...

Or rather, it can't be called a flaw.

Just like the Vast Universe is constructed from endless Heaven and Earth Laws, the Universe can collapse.

Thus, all Laws have deficiencies.

Like the opposition of the five elements, light and darkness are opposed.

However, the Great Dao Laws he comprehended from these wounds of the Killing Dao Rhythms surprisingly had no flaws whatsoever.

This is certainly impossible; it must be that he hasn't yet discovered where the flaw lies.

If there's a flaw-free Law in Heaven and Earth, then his Great Universe Technique also wouldn't stand.

Because within his Tao Universe World, no Law exists independently outside his Universe.

All the Laws complement each other, only continually supplementing and perfecting each other.

There exists no Law outside the entire Universe World.

If there's no flaw, it means he hasn't stripped the Law to its essence.

Ding Huan continued to strip away those uncharacteristic Killing Dao Rhythm Laws within his Chaos Law Sea, seeking the essence of the Great Dao within them.

As time slowly passed, any trace of Ding Huan's previous presence here had already vanished without a trace.

A millennium felt like an instant to Ding Huan.

When he opened his eyes again, he was still being corroded by the Killing Dao Rhythms.

In a millennium, he hadn't been able to strip away even a single one of those Killer Dao Rhythms eroding his physical body.

Yet Ding Huan stood up in the Chaos Law Sea.

As he moved his hands in a roll, the Killing Dao Rhythms that had entangled him for goodness knows how long were effortlessly peeled away by him, then churned by Dao Fire.

Under the Dao Fire, these Killing Dao Rhythms turned to void, disappearing without a trace.

Once the Killing Dao Rhythms eroding Ding Huan's body had been stripped away, his body, made only of broken bones, swiftly returned to its original state.

In a brief moment, Ding Huan completely returned to his peak condition.

A millennium of sedimentation, his understanding of the Tao elevated further.

Ding Huan increasingly fused with his Dao.

Outsiders found it exceedingly difficult to sense his Taoist Aura by then.

Ding Huan still hadn't stepped out from his world; he was still feeling those ancient Great Dao Laws.

After ten thousand years, he finally understood a principle.

Those Laws weren't without flaws; rather, they were derivative Laws of the billions of Laws of the Vast Universe.

Or to put it differently, they were the Origin Laws of the Vast Universe.

Their insights into the Great Dao Rules, and all the Tao Techniques in the Vast Universe, were all derived from those Origin Laws.

Here, "green is born of blue and surpasses blue" doesn't apply.

From the day the Origin Laws of the Vast Universe appeared, they inherently surpassed the Heaven and Earth Laws that evolved from them by a level.

If he attempted to use the Heaven and Earth Laws derived from the Origin Laws to break through the Origin Laws or interpret them, it was like using a basement key to open the door to the penthouse.

He could find the flaws in these Origin Laws because he cultivated the Great Universe Technique.

His Chaos Law Sea is also where the Vast Origin resides, so he could derive the Origin Law of his Great Universe Technique from within his Chaos Law Sea.

What makes those Chaos Creatures impressive is not just that they were born as Chaos Creatures, possessing innate advantages.

But because from the moment of their birth, they comprehend the Vast Origin Laws.

His Tao Universe World also possesses the Origin Laws of the Vast Universe.

Though both consider the Vast Origin Laws, perhaps his Dao practice is relatively shallow, and he cannot yet break open the Origin Laws of the Vast Universe.

But he has time.

Through ten thousand years, and by using the means of reverse law differentiation in the Chaos, he ultimately uncovered the mystery of these Origin Great Dao Laws.

That's why he could easily peel off the Killing Dao Rhythm that entangled him for thousands of years.

Next time, if this Dao Rhythm harms him again, he could even peel it off with just a thought.

The Great Dao is endless, but it is actually just a layer of window paper.

Those that obscured his mind were also a type within the Origin Laws.

Once he saw through them, they were nothing more.

No wonder he crumbled under the strength of that master.

To put it plainly, people study mathematical definitions and then provide these definitions.

Average people only solve problems using theorems under these definitions, even if what they solve is top-level complex math, it is still under someone else's definitions.

He is a bit above average, always finding ways to prove some theorems under these definitions.

To contend with these masters, one can only abandon the other's definitions and find one's own.

And he can do the same.

Because his Tao Universe World originally follows this path.

All he lacks is merely time.

Ding Huan's heart grew increasingly peaceful, at least he knew how to confront that master, the path of the Great Dao was very clear before him.

However, he still hadn't left his Chaos Law Sea, but instead took out the gourd Ji Sixin had given him.

This gourd was picked up by Ji Sixin in the Chaos Zone.

According to Ji Sixin, there shouldn't be anyone in the Chaos Zone, how could there be a gourd?

Now Ding Huan doesn't need to investigate to know, the Chaos Zone does have inhabitants.

The hand seal that injured him extended from the Chaos Zone.

With Ding Huan's current understanding of Heaven and Earth Laws, he easily peeled off the restrictions around the gourd, then removed the Daoist Rhythm residue left by the original owner of the gourd.

This Dao Rhythm Law residue is quite ancient, and the one who refined the gourd was not very powerful, holding no value to Ding Huan.

Instead, it was the gray card Ding Huan himself picked up.

It bore the leftover words "pathetic."

Peeling off the outer restriction, Ding Huan sensed that the owner of this card was definitely a supreme master.

Ding Huan wasn't sure about the exact level of strength, but he had a hunch that if this card's owner wanted to kill King Jiang Jian, it would be over in an instant.

Ding Huan examined the card repeatedly.

Apart from still being unsure what the material was, the card truly only had the two words "pathetic."

Ding Huan put the card away, planning to study its material and secrets when he reached the Seventh Step of the Great Dao.

As long as the material remains unclear, it indicates he hasn't fully understood the card.

With full strength restored, Ding Huan decided to take a stroll in the Fog Realm.

He knew the master who had badly injured him was formidable because they foresaw and advanced first.

That was not someone he could deal with right now.

With his Great Dao restored, his Cosmic World was no longer the previous dreary gray visage, instead, it regained vibrant vitality.

The Life Tree, after ten thousand years of recuperation under a pile of Dao Veins, gradually restored its Primordial Energy.

Exiting the roots, Ding Huan found the trigger forbidden pattern he left outside remained untouched.

He had left a simple trigger restriction when he entered the roots, heavily injured.

After ten thousand years, the trigger restriction had not been activated; how sparse must the people here be?

Ding Huan sent his Divine Will out.

He discovered the Fog Realm, besides being shrouded in mist, had very distinctive terrains.

Under his Divine Will, the land and waters were sharply delineated, yet intertwined, each piece of land seemed separate, each water body seemingly independent.

It seemed...

Ding Huan seemed to sense something odd and immediately stepped forward, rapidly moving down, landing on another piece of land.

Then he quickly fled to a third piece of land.

Indeed, although within the Fog Realm, the Heaven and Earth Rules in these land spaces were entirely unrelated.

And there was no Natural Barrier here.

In fact, even a Natural Barrier should not be able to stop the assimilation of Heaven and Earth Rules.

The Vast Universe truly holds wonders that defy belief.

No wonder no one lives here; this is not a place for ordinary cultivator students to live and cultivate.

(Good night, fellow cultivator!)
