In fact, these places are great cultivation sites for Ding Huan.

However, Ding Huan feels he still needs to find a better place.

After understanding the terrifying aspect of the Great Dao from the hand seal master in the deep chaos of the World of Gods, Ding Huan knew that his Great Universe Technique also needed to change.

If he cultivates in these places, he might step into the Seventh Step of the Great Dao in the shortest time, but it would be meaningless.

After stepping into the Seventh Step of the Great Dao, he would only be able to crush people like King Jiang between his fingers.

Against the powerful being in the deep chaos, he would still pose no threat.

Although Ding Huan wouldn't stay in these places to cultivate, he also didn't take the Cosmic Pot.

All the independent domains' different Heaven and Earth Laws along the way, he would come into contact with.

For his Great Universe Technique, as long as he's touched these Heaven and Earth Laws, they'll imprint on him.

In the future, he will be able to construct similar laws of his own at any time.

Ding Huan's speed wasn't fast, but he was definitely not dawdling.

In this manner, after flying for several decades, he had encountered countless Heaven and Earth Laws, yet he still hadn't seen a single soul.

Could it be that no cultivators live here?

Didn't Geng Yuan say that Mo Wuji and Lan Xiaobu fled here back then?

Just when Ding Huan was about to take out the Cosmic Pot to continue his journey, his Divine Will finally captured a trace of spatial fluctuation at the edge.

If there's a spatial fluctuation, it indicates someone has passed by.

Ding Huan flew over at his fastest speed.

Spatial fluctuations were still present, indicating the person left not too long ago.

Ding Huan did not use the Cosmic Pot, just followed these spatial fluctuations.

Even if these fluctuations grew weaker, Ding Huan could still capture them.

After several days, Ding Huan stopped.

He finally saw a man-made barrier.

The barrier had an entrance, and when Ding Huan entered, no one stopped him.

Upon entering the barrier, Ding Huan discovered that the corrosive mist was absent here.

He tried operating other cultivation techniques, and the Heaven and Earth Rules astonishingly didn't corrode the Great Dao.

His Divine Will swept out and detected a Tao City in the distance.

Ding Huan unhurriedly entered the barrier with a steady pace, yet he didn't see anyone coming out or going in.

It turns out not everyone can cultivate anywhere in the Fog Realm like he can.

This Tao City looks rather crude, without even a name outside.

Nevertheless, this barrier was constructed well.

Ding Huan walked into Tao City.

Outside Tao City, not a soul was visible, but after entering, Ding Huan discovered he seemed to have arrived in another world.

Inside Tao City, there was unexpectedly a bustling crowd.

Moreover, the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi outside and inside Tao City were entirely different worlds.

Outside, the Primordial Qi was thin, but upon entering Tao City, the Primordial Qi was so abundant that one could find a place to undergo a closed-door cultivation retreat anywhere.

No wonder nobody was wandering outside aimlessly.

Upon entering Tao City, a large plaza greeted him, with a Fighting Platform right in the center.

Not only was there a Fighting Platform, but at that moment, two people were confronting each other on it.

The plaza was crowded with people everywhere.

Ding Huan was somewhat speechless; did these people have nothing better to do?

Gathered here to watch the spectacle?

Soon, Ding Huan himself was similarly attracted to the duel of the two individuals on the Fighting Platform.

One of the two was amazingly the Master of the Universe at the Seventh Step.

Judging by the fluctuation of his Dao Rhythm's aura, his strength wouldn't be much weaker than the likes of Jian Zhen and Lou Poyi.

But the other person, Ding Huan felt the fluctuation of his Great Dao Rhythm's aura was somewhat familiar.

After watching for a while, he determined that this other person must come from the Great Universe.

Moreover, his cultivation was at the pinnacle of the Great Universe, definitely surpassing Jing Xizhen whom he had met before.

Jing Xizhen was at the Eighth Step of the Great Dao, so this guy being beyond Jing Xizhen indicated he was at the Ninth Step of the Great Dao.

However, the Ninth Step of the Great Dao from the Great Universe wasn't a Daoist Saint, just a normal Ninth Step.

Logically, an ordinary Ninth Step of the Great Dao shouldn't be able to defeat a Seventh Step Master of the Universe with a firm grasp of the Word of Dao.

In fact, the two on the Fighting Platform were attacking each other densely with Divine Communication Techniques, and in the rhythm confrontation, the Ninth Step cultivator seemed not to be at a disadvantage at all.

Ding Huan wasn't interested in the Seventh Step Daoist Saint but was intrigued by the common Ninth Step cultivator from the Great Universe.

This person had a tall stature, especially long arms, and huge hands, with long hair.

His Magical Treasure was quite impressive, being a planet.

The level of this planet wasn't inferior to the vast stone ball he received, at least a Heavenly Creation Treasure.

From the Dao Rhythm fluctuation emanating from that planet's attacks, Ding Huan perceived that his Great Dao must have undergone modifications.

After leaving the Great Universe and arriving at the Fog Realm, his strength must have undergone a qualitative transformation.

Otherwise, he likely wouldn't be a match for this Seventh Step Master of the Universe.

But for some reason, after the Divine Skills had exchanged blows for some time, his aura appeared somewhat weakened.

It's highly possible that the Ninth Step of this Great Universe was injured before.

Ding Huan sighed, thinking that if this goes on, the Ninth Step cultivator from the Great Universe will lose.

Sure enough, after the two exchanged divine skills for a short time, his opponent's myriad blade thorns tore through his defensive domain.

Blades of slaughter rained upon his chest, raising a cloud of blood mist.

This Ninth Step cultivator from the Great Universe was directly blasted off the fighting platform, spewing a blood arrow in mid-air.

However, his planetary attack did not leave empty-handed, as a magnificent Divine Ability Rhythm exploded, knocking the Master of the Universe onto the fighting platform.

Obviously, both were severely injured.

Ding Huan stepped forward, planning to question this fellow later.

After all, they both hailed from the Great Universe, sharing a hometown affinity.

What Ding Huan didn't expect was that before the defeated cultivator even hit the ground, a long spear emerged from the crowd, piercing directly through his chest.

"Bang!" The spear sent the cultivator flying a distance before pinning him obliquely to the plaza floor.

Can fighting be like this?

Is a third person's interference considered a violation?

Then a rough voice sounded: "This person is mine."

Finishing his words, he landed next to what Ding Huan recognized as his hometown fellow.

This was a bearded fellow, whose Daoist Rhythm fluctuations indicated he was a Sixth Step True Saint.

Ding Huan couldn't help but marvel at the seeming abundance of powerful individuals here, even more than the World of Gods.

Yet he felt confused; what kind of rule was this?

Two people were engaged in combat, so how could someone just interfere?

Ding Huan didn't quite understand.

However, since they both came from the Great Universe, and Ding Huan had heard that Mo Wuji and Lan Xiaobu once entered the Fog Realm aboard the Seven Realm Stone.

Back then, it wasn't just Mo Wuji and Lan Xiaobu on the Seven Realm Stone.

Maybe this person was a companion of Mo Wuji and Lan Xiaobu.

Now that he was here, naturally he wanted to meet these two, for if the rumors were true, cooperation could be beneficial.

After all, whether it was Guan Huan, Bai Yue, or Ji Sixin, they all held these two in high regard.

Thinking of this, Ding Huan stepped forward, blocking the man: "What do you intend to do?"

The Sixth Step True Saint didn't expect someone to interfere with his spoils.

"Are you new here? Don't you understand the rules? I was the first to mark this battle prize, and you want to interfere?" The bearded man glared at Ding Huan, his tone unfriendly.

Truthfully, he couldn't fathom Ding Huan's strength.

Ding Huan's Great Dao was not apparent; his surrounding Daoist Rhythm merged with space, making it impossible to discern.

Ding Huan frowned slightly at the thought of a living person being called a battle prize by this fellow.

"My friend's fight isn't over, and you've interrupted it, yet you ask if I understand the rules. If the rule is ganging up two-on-one, then very well, I'd like to learn about your divine skills."

Ding Huan's tone was filled with disdain.

Hearing Ding Huan claim the severely injured man was his friend, the bearded man was evidently startled.

How could he not know whether Shi Changxing, this outsider, had friends?

Yet the main point wasn't about the claim of being Shi Changxing's friend, but that it was asserted the fight between Shi Changxing and Luo Kaisi wasn't finished.

In Ducheng, the unwritten rule is that during a fight, outsiders can't interfere.

"Nonsense, everyone saw the fight between Shi Changxing and Luo Kaisi was over, with Shi Changxing blasted off the platform."

The bearded man shouted angrily, unwilling to allow Ding Huan's narrative to continue.

So the Ninth Step from the Great Universe was named Shi Changxing.

From the man's retort and anxiousness, Ding Huan guessed as much.

In this place, fighting isn't allowed to be interfered with, only allowing interference once the fight has ended, like claiming battle prizes, as the bearded man stated.

Yet even so, Ding Huan didn't quite get it.

Aren't battle prizes for the victor to claim? How does a bystander have a right to them?

He chuckled coldly: "I'm talking nonsense? Everyone present saw that after Shi Changxing was blasted off the fighting platform, he hadn't yet landed on the ground.

How do you know he couldn't turn in midair and return to the platform? Perhaps it was part of his divine plan, yet you intervened halfway."

The bearded man was momentarily speechless, for all knew Shi Changxing couldn't return midair to the platform.

But as long as Ding Huan insisted Shi Changxing could, he had no argument left.

After all, he'd indeed pinned Shi Changxing with a magical spear in midair before landing.

"Earlier, it was after Shi Changxing landed that I nailed him," the bearded man uttered with little confidence.

Ding Huan casually tossed out a crystal ball: "Oh, since that's the case, let's all take a look."

The crystal ball activated, clearly recording Shi Changxing still midair when the bearded man hastily nailed him.

"I concede; since this is your friend, take him with you." The bearded man turned to leave.

Suddenly, Ding Huan's domain expanded, enveloping him within.

"What's this, after scheming two-on-one against my friend and ambushing him into severe injury, you plan to run away? Ugly as you are, you sure have grand ideas."

"What are you going to do?"

The bearded man glared at Ding Huan, eyes filled with hostility.

Ding Huan felt helpless; he didn't know the rules here.

Is he allowed to kill this guy before him?
