Post-Mythical Era: I don't want to die in the third reincarnation-Chapter 1219 - 1212: Encircling Ding Huan for the Kill
"Brother Ding, that seems to be Wu Dao, one of the three paths..."
Shen Dai's voice trembled as he spoke.
After Qi Qitang appeared, he already felt despair. Now with the appearance of Wu Dao, one of the three paths, he found he seemed to have no qualifications for despair.
Although he didn't recognize Cang Fei and An Ting, who came with Wu Dao, he could see that even Qi Qitang called them seniors, showing none of these people were weak.
Just one Wu Dao meant waiting for death, and now there were several no weaker than Wu Dao.
He suspected that the other two might be Chi Zhou and Ye Sha from the three paths.
"I know, that guy thinks I took something of his, he keeps following and shouting after me. But he can't do anything about me, so this time he got smart and found some help."
Ding Huan laughed casually, not taking it to heart at all.
"Ah..."
Shen Dai was shocked as he looked at Ding Huan.
Before, there were rumors that Ding Huan, Mo Wuji, and Lan Xiaobu had entered beyond the Nine Layers, and he thought whoever spread such words was crazy.
He was familiar with these people and knew their strength wasn't weak, but that was only relative to him.
To say these people could enter beyond the Nine Layers was nonsense.
Although Shen Dai's strength was lacking, he understood well how true power was gained.
No matter how strong Ding Huan, Lan Xiaobu, and Mo Wuji's potential and resources were, they couldn't catch up with the Five Ancestors, not to mention compare to the three paths.
This was restricted by the Innate Taoist Body and vast Source Principles, impossible to change.
How could Ding Huan's words make it sound like it was true?
"Boom!"
Amid Shen Dai's shock, Ding Huan's Tao Domain had already collided with the Source Domains of Wu Dao, An Ting, and Cang Fei.
Even if both sides were only testing.
The entire space still trembled in waves.
Qi Qitang's face turned green upon seeing this might.
Ding Huan's Tao Domain could actually withstand the combined Tao Domains of Wu Dao, Cang Fei, and An Ting, and he had been planning to use the Primordial Energy Hand Seal to seize Ding Huan?
If Ding Huan's strength was as immense as his Source Domain suggested, then without Wu Dao appearing just now, wouldn't he have...
Qi Qitang dared not think further.
Wu Dao said sinisterly, "Brother Cang Fei, Brother An Ting, if you two continue to hold back like this, we might as well scatter.
Brother An Ting, you were the one who initiated against Ding Huan earlier. If we don't kill him today, there will be endless troubles in the future."
When the four Source Domains clashed, Wu Dao realized that Cang Fei and An Ting had not exerted their full strength.
These two guys were still holding back at this point, were they seeking death?
"So many bullying my brother, have you no shame?"
With the voice fell, a Sword Curtain tore through the sky.
"Crack!"
A crack appeared in the domain locking Ding Huan.
Ye Xuan landed beside Ding Huan.
Wu Dao stared at Ye Xuan, knowing that Ye Xuan had managed to tear through their Source Domain just now.
In part, because Ye Xuan attacked from outside, and also because Cang Fei and An Ting weren't using even thirty percent of their strength.
These two guys, wanting benefits but unwilling to put in effort.
Ding Huan laughed heartily, "Old Ye, congratulations on achieving mastery in Sword Dao."
Just by Ye Xuan's earlier sword, he wouldn't be weaker than Qi Qitang.
But compared to the three paths, Ye Xuan's Sword Dao should still be a level lower.
Ding Huan hadn't yet discussed Sword Dao with Ye Xuan and didn't know where Ye Xuan's shortcomings were.
After dealing with these wicked ones before him, they'd talk later.
Most of the good things in the Eightfold Expanse Canyon had been snatched, Ding Huan and Wu Dao's Source Domains clashing had drawn almost everyone's attention.
When Ye Xuan rushed over, Jian Tian and Ku Ya noticed as well.
Jian Tian rushed over without hesitation.
With exchanges in Sword Dao with Ye Xuan, and the opportunities in the Eightfold Expanse Canyon, Jian Tian's Sword Dao had reached new heights.
The vast Five Ancestors also had levels, Si Wu's strength was extraordinary, nearly comparable to the three paths, considered unparalleled.
Among the other four, Lie Daozi proved his Dao through killing, second only to Si Wu.
Qi Qitang, Jian Tian, and Che Bu's strength was slightly weaker, forming the third level among the Five Ancestors.
At this moment, Jian Tian's strength might not be much weaker than Si Wu.
And this was the peak Si Wu, not the current Si Wu who was still in hiding licking his wounds somewhere.
The commotion on Ding Huan's side was, of course, seen by Lan Xiaobu and Mo Wuji long ago.
"Let's move, bullying Brother Ding Huan for being outnumbered, let's kill these bastards." Lan Xiaobu spread his hand, and the Longevity Halberd appeared in his hand.
Mo Wuji waved him off, "Wait, haven't you noticed there are still a few top experts here who haven't moved? If we join Ding Huan now, it means we've played all our cards.
Do they still have hidden cards? We don't know at all.
Let's stay outside, if any more bastards join in, we'll catch them off guard from behind.
If no one else joins, we'll target that old bastard Wu Dao while they're fighting."
Lan Xiaobu laughed boldly, "Alright, let's do it this way."
The two stopped searching for treasures and prepared to approach Ding Huan's location separately.
"Eh..." Mo Wuji suddenly exclaimed in surprise, immediately halting his steps.
"What's the matter?" Lan Xiaobu asked, puzzled, at Mo Wuji.
"I seemed to see an acquaintance... Forget it, let's talk about it later."
Mo Wuji was indeed astonished.
He actually saw Ku Ya.
Logically, Ku Ya should not appear here, yet he truly saw Ku Ya just now.
Ku Ya is extremely loyal and also very smart.
But constrained by the limitations of the lower realms, no matter how clever Ku Ya is, she shouldn't be able to cross the cosmic plane and the cosmic wall to be here.
However, Mo Wuji did not plan to search for Ku Ya now, because he also saw Ku Yue.
The aura around Ku Yue was vast and boundless, clearly no weaker than one of the Three Paths.
Moreover, Ku Yue's aura carried a Dao Rhythm wave that he was extremely familiar with…
If it were before, Mo Wuji might have needed to think for a while before remembering.
Now, a single thought from Mo Wuji brought it back to him, it was the attribute of the Dark Dao Root.
To cultivate the Dark Technique, one must have the Dark Spiritual Root, and only the Ku Family possesses the Dark Spiritual Root…
Could it be Ku Cai from the Ku Family?
This woman is related to Ku Cai? Are there such powerful figures in the Ku Family?
"Huh, that woman…" Lan Xiaobu squinted his eyes; he too saw Ku Yue.
The cultivator of the Dark Technique, this is the ancestor of the Ku Family.
The Ku Family, he has had a deep enmity with them.
Ku Cai was killed by him, and the Ku Family had been hunted by him using bloodline tracing techniques.
Unexpectedly, there is such a figure remaining in the Ku Family.
The killing intent around Lan Xiaobu rose unabashedly; this woman had to be killed by him.
Ku Cai and he have the hatred of annihilating worlds between them.
"Xiao Bu, this woman is not simple, her strength is not weaker than the Three Paths. The best way to kill her would be to launch a surprise attack."
Mo Wuji naturally sensed Lan Xiaobu's killing intent and immediately said.
Lan Xiaobu nodded. If it were only Ku Yue, he and Mo Wuji would not fear her at all.
Now, aside from this terrifying woman from the Ku Family, there's also Wu Dao and others.
Previously, he and Mo Wuji had long observed that there were at least five people here whose strength wasn't weaker than Wu Dao's.
They came from the outside universe. Once a fight broke out, no one would help them.
…
Ku Ya looked at Ku Yue blocking her way, slightly bent her body, and asked calmly, "Why does senior stop me?"
Even though Ku Ya was asking, she already had an answer in her heart.
This woman must be someone from the Ku Family and a strong figure of high standing within the Ku Family.
But in Ku Ya's heart, the Ku Family is the Ku Family, and she is Ku Ya; these are two separate matters.
Back then, when Ku Xinren came to find her and allied with outsiders to eliminate Blue Star Academy and Ding Huan, she unhesitatingly rejected them.
She hadn't interacted much with people from the Ku Family, though she had met a few.
Among those she had met, most were selfish individuals.
Ku Ya clearly understood that this might be related to the Ku Family's spiritual root.
For those who cultivate the Dark Technique, unless they possess great perseverance, most end up being swayed by their Dao Root.
Ultimately, only personal interest remains paramount.
She didn't understand this before.
That was because aside from her Dark Spiritual Root, she had other spiritual roots and initially didn't cultivate the Dark Technique.
Later, when she ventured alone into the void and came in contact with the Dark Technique, beginning her cultivation of the Dark Spiritual Root, her progress was remarkably swift.
Ku Ya felt something was amiss.
She couldn't quite pinpoint exactly what was wrong.
Upon joining Blue Star Academy and meeting Ding Huan, she unhesitatingly abandoned all her previous techniques and switched to practicing the Great Universe Technique.
And she was accepted as a disciple by Ding Huan.
The Great Universe Technique seeks one's own mysteries, universal mysteries, vast mysteries…
As her Great Universe Technique and Daoist skills gradually matured, Ku Ya constructed her own Great Dao World.
At that point, Ku Ya thoroughly comprehended that the problem wasn't with the Dark Spiritual Root and Dark Dao Technique, but with the Great Dao Mysteries.
The vast majority of Ku Family cultivators only skim the surface when cultivating the Dark Technique.
Ultimately, they are influenced by their Great Dao Techniques and Dao Root.
They also don't understand the true mystery of darkness lies where.
Generation after generation passes on, constantly modifying the Dark Technique.
In the end, the Dark Technique becomes unrecognizable, making it impossible for anyone with an open heart to emerge.
She was able to control the Dark Dao Root and construct her Dark Principle Tao Universe because of the Great Universe Technique.
In the Eightfold Expanse Canyon, her Great Dao ascended further, and her understanding of the Dark Dao Root and Dark Principle became clearer.
At her level, she controls the darkness, instead of being led by the Dark Dao Root.
The woman in front of her should also be cultivating a technique related to the Dark Principle, but this woman is definitely not influenced by the Dark Dao Root.
Ku Ya is certain that this woman's understanding of the Dark Principle and Dark Technique is above hers.
It indicates that she also has control over the Dark Principle, rather than being influenced by it.
"You possess the bloodline of the Ku Clan and have the Dark Dao Root. You should be part of my Ku Clan, right?"
Ku Yue looked at Ku Ya, her tone gentle, even carrying some delight.
She had long noticed Ku Ya.
It's just that in the Eightfold Expanse Canyon, good things are piled up like mountains, so she naturally wanted to search for those items first.
Now, having almost finished scavenging the items and seeing Ku Ya seeming to leave, she naturally wouldn't allow Ku Ya to just leave like that.
(Good night, fellow Daoist!)
