Post-Mythical Era: I don't want to die in the third reincarnation-Chapter 1080 - 1073: Persuasion
Su Qianshan felt something was amiss as soon as he entered the City of Withered Paths.
This place wasn't devoid of visitors; they came and left, and some left recently.
"Haha, can they really get away?"
Su Qianshan muttered to himself, then directly stepped into the City Lord Mansion.
Although people were gone, he could still clearly sense the faint Daoist Rhythm aura.
Su Qianshan closed his eyes, and in less than a stick of incense time, he opened them again: "Eight people...no, it seems to be nine people.
Indeed they have some skills, but that's about it."
The ninth person's Daoist Rhythm aura was so subtle that if it weren't for Su Qianshan, it would have been difficult for an ordinary cultivator to perceive it.
Su Qianshan immediately rushed out of the City of Withered Paths.
Standing outside the city, he quickly sensed a faint Daoist Rhythm fluctuation and then the Space Law fluctuation.
That faint Daoist Rhythm was the ninth person whom he almost failed to sense earlier.
It was evident that it was the ninth person's Flying Treasure that carried the other seven people away.
In just an instant, Su Qianshan captured the direction in which the other party had left.
...
Two days later, Ding Huan stopped his Cosmic Pot at a canyon and consecutively activated nine Teleportation Talismans.
Even Hou Yucheng didn't know what Ding Huan was doing.
Ding Huan looked at Dan Xing: "Do you know this place?"
Dan Xing nodded: "Yes, this is the entrance to the Weak Wind Forbidden Land. Later, it was broken by someone, and the forbidden land ceased to exist, so no one comes here anymore."
Even Ding Huan himself did not expect that the random place he found would be the entrance to the Weak Wind Forbidden Land.
He was merely looking for a more concealed location nearby.
"Do you know the route from here to the Sword Source Blood Peak?"
Dan Xing immediately inscribed a Jade Scroll and handed it to Ding Huan: "I know, this is a Direction Jade Scroll..."
Ding Huan took the Jade Scroll, scanned it with his Divine Will, and said with satisfaction: "Very good."
This Dan Xing is indeed a clever person, just a bit too fawning.
Perhaps Dan Xing still doesn't know his motive, but he exceeded his requirements.
He only wanted a route map, but Dan Xing depicted not only the route, but even all the terrains along the way.
Ding Huan took out a Five Elements World: "Everyone enters the Five Elements World first. After I've dealt with Su Qianshan, you can come out. How about that?"
Only Hou Yucheng understood Ding Huan's general idea. Although he wanted to help Ding Huan, he knew his cultivation strength should be far from Su Qianshan's.
So he entered the Five Elements World immediately.
At the same time, he secretly resolved that after this, he would dedicate all his efforts to the Great Dao.
As a Demon Saint, his pride and competitiveness are stronger than anyone's, but as a Demon Saint, he never shows it.
After Hou Yucheng entered the Five Elements World, the others followed suit.
To them, if Ding Huan wanted to kill them, there was no need to use such a Five Elements World at all.
Once everyone entered the Five Elements World, Ding Huan suddenly disappeared from the spot.
...
Ding Huan performed the Heart Jutsu, which was even faster than the Cosmic Pot.
The journey that the Cosmic Country took three days, Ding Huan only took one day to appear on the outskirts of the Sword Source Blood Peak.
At first glance at the Sword Source Blood Peak, Ding Huan knew Dan Xing's guess was correct; this Blood Peak might very well be the Dao Body of a powerful being who opened the heavens.
That majestic aura of creation was even thicker and clearer than the place where he obtained the Creation Dao Principle.
Yet this Dao body was forcibly pinned down, allowing others to strip its blood path.
It was indeed cruel enough.
Just don't know if this opening-the-heavens Dao Body was nailed down by Su Qianshan.
Nine out of ten, it's the work of this fellow.
Ding Huan's Divine Will swept out, and he quickly discovered Yan Yu.
Yan Yu's cave mansion was in the middle of the Blood Peak. At this moment, he was sitting in his cave mansion, frowning and contemplating, seemingly unable to decide on something extremely important.
With a quick flicker, Ding Huan rushed into Yan Yu's cave mansion decisively.
He didn't even bother to knock on Yan Yu's cave mansion's restriction.
"Who is it?" As soon as Ding Huan entered Yan Yu's cave mansion, Yan Yu jolted awake and suddenly stood up.
"Ding Huan." Ding Huan's figure solidified.
Seeing Ding Huan appear, Yan Yu immediately summoned his Transcendence Sword.
Ding Huan was indeed strong, but it's not easy if he wanted to kill Yan Yu either.
Ding Huan waved his hand, signaling Yan Yu not to be so nervous: "Mr. Yan, I'm here to talk about a few things. If you agree, we can join forces now. If you disagree, I'll leave immediately.
More friends mean more pathways; Mr. Yan, you and I have no grievances, and you wouldn't want to become enemies with me for no reason, right?"
Yan Yu didn't respond to Ding Huan's words. They were already enemies, so there was no need for talk.
Ding Huan didn't care what Yan Yu thought and continued speaking: "Mr. Yan, you probably also feel you're in danger, right."
Yan Yu extended his Domain, not refuting Ding Huan's words.
He indeed sensed himself being in danger; he felt he shouldn't continue staying at the Sword Source Blood Peak, but he couldn't bear to leave it either.
"I will only say this once: first, the Sword Source Blood Peak is a Dao Body of a powerful being who opened the heavens, nailed down by shameless means.
From my observation, this means of confining the Dao Body won't last long. If you continue to collude with Su Qianshan, you might end up losing your life.
This doesn't bring you any benefit because the benefits all go to Su Qianshan.
Furthermore, I don't believe you're completely unaware of Su Qianshan's intentions. You should know something about the collection of Tongti Star Land's boundary fortune and the Heaven and Earth Laws by the Dao Tower.
Once the Dao Tower has siphoned away the boundary fortune, what do you think will happen to Tongti Star Land?"
Ding Huan paused here.
Without Ding Huan mentioning it, Mr. Yan understood what would happen to Tongti Star Land—it would naturally collapse and dissipate.
Indeed, he had perceived a bit of it, but he had never verified it.
Ding Huan saw Mr. Yan frowning and continued, "Even you've noticed that the Dao Tower is collecting the Heaven and Earth Fortune; do you think Su Qianshan hasn't figured it out?
Su Qianshan has seen it, so why doesn't he expose that the Dao Tower has stripped Tongti Star Land of its Heaven and Earth Fortune, ultimately leading to the destruction of Tongti Star Land?
Not only that, he's also assisting Fu?
Because Su Qianshan also desires the Dao Tower, he's waiting for Fu to help him collect the boundary Heaven and Earth Fortune and aid in destroying Tongti Star Land. He is a hypocrite.
It's not that Su Qianshan can't take away the Dao Tower; just think about where the Dao Tower is now, and you'll understand."
Mr. Yan grew increasingly silent, the murderous intent on him dissipating unconsciously.
Previously, he did believe that no one could take the Dao Tower away.
Now, Ding Huan has managed to take away the Dao Tower.
If that's the case, then naturally Su Qianshan can too.
"Do you think after Su Qianshan obtains the Dao Tower, he'll spare those around him? Or you might think that although Su Qianshan is strong, he still shouldn't be able to kill you.
Where did you achieve the Ninth Step of proving the Dao? If I'm not mistaken, you did it at Blood Peak of the Sword Source, right?
Whose territory is Blood Peak of the Sword Source?
I can assure you, Su Qianshan is much stronger than you. If he does something at Blood Peak of the Sword Source to trap you in the Great Dao, you probably wouldn't even recognize it.
Once Su Qianshan gets the Dao Tower, you'd be either the Dao Spirit of the Dao Tower or a puppet of Su Qianshan. Of course, this is just my speculation, but I believe you ought to weigh it for yourself."
When Ding Huan talked about Su Qianshan doing something at Blood Peak of the Sword Source, it was merely speculation, but not without some basis for saying so.
Mr. Yan was an insider. He had long felt that something was amiss with his Great Dao.
But he had never dared to fully contemplate an issue arising when he achieved the Ninth Step of proving the Dao.
Now that Ding Huan pointed it out, everything became clear.
Clearly, most of what Ding Huan just said was probably true, and a small part could become true in the future.
Seeing Mr. Yan hesitating, Ding Huan delivered the final blow: "I'll say this only once and won't repeat or persuade you a second time.
If you agree, then join me to deal with Su Qianshan. If not, I will immediately leave Tongti Star Land.
You should know that I have the capability to leave Tongti Star Land."
Leaving Tongti Star Land is impossible.
If Mr. Yan disagrees, Ding Huan's next step is to eliminate Mr. Yan.
Mr. Yan took a deep breath; he knew Ding Huan had the ability to leave Tongti Star Land.
Because Ding Huan could tear open the Void Domain of Tongti Star Land.
"What do we do?" Mr. Yan finally responded.
"I plan to ambush Su Qianshan. You need to collaborate with me later, assisting me from the side." Ding Huan was delighted.
Mr. Yan nodded: "How exactly should I assist?"
"If you're willing to join forces with me, then pledge a Dao oath."
After Ding Huan said this, he raised his hand to draw a Great Dao mark in the void.
Mr. Yan knew this was unfair to him, as it meant he was making a one-sided Dao oath.
But Ding Huan had made it very clear just now.
If he refused to cooperate, Ding Huan would leave immediately, and he indeed had the ability to leave.
Once Ding Huan left, and if Su Qianshan really did want to kill him, finding another formidable helper like Ding Huan would be nearly impossible.
He had seen how formidable Ding Huan was before, and even more so today.
The barrier at Blood Peak of the Sword Source, the restriction at his cave mansion, were virtually nonexistent to Ding Huan.
As for Fu, that dimwit wouldn't have lost the Dao Tower if he could contend with Su Qianshan.
Mr. Yan still sent out a blood imprint and made a Dao oath.
He dared not gamble.
Because most of what Ding Huan said was true.
"I estimate Su Qianshan will soon return to Blood Peak of the Sword Source. At that time, you'll wait for Su Qianshan midway and send him a message, saying there's an urgent matter to tell him.
Once I trap Su Qianshan and engage him, watch for the right moment to ambush Su Qianshan."
Hearing Ding Huan's words, Mr. Yan looked at Ding Huan with some doubt: "Can you trap Su Qianshan?"
Ding Huan replied calmly: "If I can't even trap Su Qianshan, collaborating with you would be meaningless."
"Alright, as long as you can trap Su Qianshan, I'll do as you say afterward."
"First, you need to wait for Su Qianshan midway and also act according to our discussion; this is the key."
Mr. Yan could only marvel inwardly that when it came to emotional intelligence, Ding Huan was ten times better than Su Qianshan.
Even though he's telling me to execute the plan, he frames it as acting according to our mutual discussion.
"Alright, I have no issue with that."
