Post-Mythical Era: I don't want to die in the third reincarnation-Chapter 1155 - 1148: Qu Yi Awakens

Ding Huan had completely lost all perception of the outside world, while the void algae closest to him began to wither and then dissipate completely.

After the void algae dissipated, the primordial Qi in the space where Ding Huan was located seemed to have increased.

This increase in the Heaven and Earth primordial Qi also contained the aura of the Vast Origin Source Principle.

As time passed, the withering and dissipating speed of the void algae around Ding Huan became faster, gradually expanding outward, and the space around Ding Huan also slowly increased.

It's not that Ding Huan couldn't imagine it, probably no one could have thought that this boundless void algae was actually a top-tier cultivation resource.

Every piece of void algae was an extreme fusion of the Vast Origin Qi condensed with various Vast Origin Source Principles.

Yang Mei only knew this was a top-tier secluded place for cultivation, but it's likely Yang Mei himself wouldn't have imagined that this cultivation resource is the boundless void algae, something hated by everyone in the First Universe.

However, even if someone thought of it, they couldn't find a way to utilize this void algae.

Even Ding Huan could only reverse the void algae with the help of the Great Universe Technique when he completely lost perception.

Allowing the Vast Initial Source Principles and Origin Qi within the void algae to return to the state of the Vast Beginning.

Hundreds of years, thousands of years...

When ten thousand years had passed, the void algae within tens of thousands of miles, centered around Ding Huan, had long dissipated completely.

And the Heaven and Earth primordial Qi and endless Vast Origin Source Principles within this thousands of miles space had long transformed into liquid.

Looking from afar, this was a Great Qi Lake.

If Mo Yuantian and others came here, they would definitely think this was the formation of the second Ten Thousand Veins Lake in the First Universe.

This Vast Qi Lake is clearly unmatched by the Ten Thousand Veins Lake, surrounded by endless void algae, rippling under the gentle breeze.

Ding Huan sat in the middle of this Qi Lake, completely unresponsive.

The only indicator proving Ding Huan was still alive was the fluctuation of Heaven and Earth Rules around Ding Huan.

Or it could be said Ding Huan had already formed a complete Taoist Circulation with this Vast Qi Lake and endless Vast Origin Source Principles.

This circulation was not only Ding Huan constructing his own Tao Universe World and perfecting his own Dao, but also melting the boundless void algae.

With every circle of expansion of the Vast Qi Lake, the Taoist aura around Ding Huan became stronger by a level.

Ding Huan's Tao Universe World had long transformed into a true Vast Universe.

However, as this Vast Universe continued to extend outward, Ding Huan needed to draw more Vast Origin Qi from the Qi Lake around him.

Even the Life Tree in Ding Huan's world sensed something wrong.

On the surface, Ding Huan's strength surged, and the Life Tree's aura also skyrocketed.

Right now, Ding Huan could still use the Vast Qi Lake formed by the void algae to expand his own Tao Universe World.

Once the void algae was completely consumed, the endless Qi in the Vast Qi Lake, and even Ding Huan's Cosmic Origin Veins and Cosmic Yuan Vein Mountain would be consumed completely.

Then it would be Ding Huan's own Dao Body's turn.

Ding Huan managed to cultivate to the Eighth Step of Great Dao, still the eighth step of his own Dao.

His Dao Body was definitely a treasure trove of Qi.

Once Ding Huan's own Dao Body was emptied, Ding Huan's cosmic world should be formed.

Even if it's not formed, it would come to a halt.

This kind of Vast Universe World wouldn't be weaker than any other universe.

The only difference is that when Ding Huan's cosmic world forms, Ding Huan himself would also disappear.

He might transform into billions of source principles within his own Vast Universe World, or into countless magical treasures within his own Vast Universe World.

There's also a possibility of becoming a Dao Principle of Heavenly Dao.

Ding Huan embodied Dao, transforming into a Vast Universe.

For every being in Ding Huan's world, this was the best thing.

For the Life Tree, it was also extremely beneficial.

But the Life Tree in Ding Huan's world already had spiritual awareness.

Without Ding Huan, there would be no Life Tree.

Ding Huan saved it, and it had repeatedly saved Ding Huan.

In its perception, its own vitality was already part of Ding Huan's life; it was unwilling to see Ding Huan transform into the Vast.

Yet it couldn't awaken Ding Huan.

Firstly, it didn't have the capability, because Ding Huan was not lacking in vitality now.

Secondly, Ding Huan was currently perfecting his own Dao.

Having Ding Huan detach from Dao midway might not necessarily be a good thing for Ding Huan.

Perhaps the price of awakening Ding Huan is that Ding Huan would never be able to enter this state again.

...

Qu Yi seemed to be having a long dream of Nirvana of her own Dao.

The dream was so long that she felt it was not a dream, but reality.

She seemed to have been imprisoned, then this person was very sinister, starting to strip away her Daoist Skill using the Chaos Treasure.

Just as her Dao was forcibly stripped, she was sent to a whole new world.

The Heaven and Earth Rules of this world were so clean, without a trace of blemished aura.

More than that, she felt a kind of Heaven and Earth primordial Qi she had never encountered before.

This Qi, compared to Dao Vein Qi...

It felt like it wasn't just Qi, but contained the Great Dao Rules of Vast Origin...

Under these Great Dao Rules, Qu Yi's consciousness had a completely new understanding of the Dao.

At this moment, she suddenly understood a principle, that her way of cultivating the Primordial Dao Technique was wrong.

Her Great Dao being stripped away did not seem like a bad thing.

The true original Dao Technique is not about her seeking the mysteries of the original Dao with the help of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi and Heaven and Earth Rules.

It is about using the vast Heaven and Earth Rules she has opened to build her own original Dao Rules, taking herself as the Tao Foundation.

Due to the Cosmic Origin Veins and the clear Heaven and Earth Rules in Ding Huan's Tao World, Qu Yi began to deduce her own original Dao.

She did not know how long it had been; in a blur, Qu Yi could feel the Dao Principles she constructed had formed a Dao Cocoon.

When the outline of her own Dao system was fully constructed, under the entirely new original Dao Technique circulation, Qu Yi felt her cultivation rapidly soar.

This was entirely because of the new cosmic origin veins.

Various realms and various Daoist Skills were so clear to Qu Yi that they seemed easy to grasp.

From being a Saint to stepping into the Creation Saint Realm, it seemed to have taken only one night.

Since it was a dream, cultivating so quickly was not strange.

But Qu Yi soon discovered that she could not wake herself up from her Great Dao dream.

Unless she could step out of the Creation Saint Realm into the true fourth step, the Saint of Words Realm.

However, to step into the Saint of Words, she would have to crack open her own Dao Cocoon.

Clearly, this should be simple in a dream, yet Qu Yi could not crack open her Dao Cocoon.

She could not rely on external forces; she could only continue to perfect her Tao Foundation and Tao World within the dream...

Until today, she felt a vast aura of creation; she felt like she was the first being of the vast universe.

She sensed an extreme vast creation Rule and the vast origin source principle she had never touched before but now was extremely clear.

Qu Yi's Tao circulation used this extreme vast creation Rule to tear open her Great Dao Cocoon.

At the moment the Dao Cocoon shattered, Qu Yi stepped into the fourth step of the Great Dao, the Saint of Words Realm.

When Qu Yi opened her eyes and saw the sight of the boundless universe and heaps of cosmic origin veins, she was stunned.

This is not a dream?

Soon, Qu Yi confirmed it really was not a dream.

Not only was it not a dream, this was indeed Ding Huan's world.

Especially that Life Tree.

That was Ding Huan's Life Tree. Looking at the million-foot-high Life Tree, Qu Yi wished she could immediately go to see Ding Huan.

All the previous memories flooded her mind.

She, Wen Kesu, and Elder Bamboo became lost in the Void and were captured into the Dao Tower.

No need to ask Qu Yi also knew, being alive and here after entering the Dao Tower, obviously Ding Huan saved her and placed her in his Great Dao World.

Qu Yi was not without experience; seeing Ding Huan's vast boundless Tao Universe, she knew Ding Huan's power must have reached an unimaginable level.

Indeed, if Ding Huan's power wasn't that strong, it would have been impossible to save her from the Dao Tower.

The cultivator who originally led them into the Dao Tower—his power was beyond her imagination.

At this moment, Qu Yi had already calmed down.

What about Nian Huan?

Did Ding Huan find Nian Huan?

No, logically she was in Ding Huan's Tao World.

Once she awoke, the first thing Ding Huan should be able to sense.

Why has she been awake for such a long time, yet Ding Huan has not come in? No message either?

"Ding Huan..."

Qu Yi grew anxious; after calling out with no response she suspected Ding Huan might be in trouble.

She immediately used her Divine Will to scan outward.

To her delight, her Divine Will could indeed penetrate Ding Huan's Tao World.

If she could pass through Ding Huan's Tao World, it meant she could leave Ding Huan's Tao World anytime.

Ding Huan must have long integrated the top Dao Principles of his cosmic world into her.

Qu Yi's eyes grew slightly red.

She understood what this meant.

Ding Huan clearly was telling her that if one day he fell, when she woke in his world, she could leave at any time.

Qu Yi's Divine Will reached a vast lake; when she sensed the Vast Origin Qi contained within it, she had some guesses.

As expected, she saw Ding Huan.

Ding Huan sat at the heart of the lake, having long formed a complete Tao circulation with the surrounding Heaven, Earth, and this lake.

She could step into the fourth step of the Great Dao because Ding Huan's Tao Universe was recreating the imagery of vast creation.

Qu Yi, with a single thought, already rushed out of Ding Huan's Tao World and stood on the lake's surface.

Vast Origin Qi surged in, and without even starting to cultivate, Qu Yi could feel her power rise once again.

If she were to cultivate here in seclusion, Qu Yi was certain she could step into the fifth step of the Great Dao in the shortest time.

No matter how wonderful the place, Qu Yi now had no mood to cultivate.

Her cultivation though weak, only the fourth step of the Great Dao.

No matter the Tao Technique she cultivated or the Vast Origin Qi she felt when stepping into the Saint of Words, they all made one thing clear to her.

That is, the moment Ding Huan advanced might be the moment Ding Huan's Tao Body transforms into the first Dao Principle of his own Tao Universe.

(Goodnight, fellow Daoist!)
