Post-Mythical Era: I don't want to die in the third reincarnation-Chapter 1160 - 1135: The Void Algae Are Gone
Lan Xiaobu laughed heartily, "Yes, what have we not encountered? I'm just worried that life might be too dull for me, Lan Xiaobu.
Wu Ji, this vast Yuan Vein River is yours. After I leave here, I'll go look for a new vast Yuan Vein River.
Also, if we find the true method to step into the Ninth Step of the Great Dao, let's share it with each other."
Mo Wuji patted Lan Xiaobu on the shoulder:
"Sharing the method to the Ninth Step of the Great Dao is only natural. The vast Yuan Vein River was found by you. If it's enough for both of us to prove the Ninth Step, I definitely wouldn't leave.
But now I think it might only be enough for one person to prove the Ninth Step, so I won't take it. If anyone has to leave, it should be me.
However, I suggest that we don't leave here for the time being, and search together for a way to step into the Ninth Step of the Great Dao.
No one can be a guide in this; we just have to rely on our own exploration. Once we've found a way to the Ninth Step of the Great Dao, we can decide on the next step."
"Alright," Lan Xiaobu immediately agreed to Mo Wuji's proposal.
He cultivates the Longevity Sect, and Mo Wuji cultivates the Mortal Dao. The two complement each other's Great Dao, and perhaps they really can find an entirely new Ninth Step of the Great Dao.
...
Qu Yi was excitedly feeling her own surging elemental power, and her Divine Will had expanded more than a hundred times.
Even she hadn't expected that after stepping into the Seventh Step of the Great Dao and becoming a Saint of the Universe, her strength would increase so dramatically.
Although she knew that this was related to cultivating beside Ding Huan, the dramatic increase in strength still brought her immense confidence.
She had seen Saints of the Seventh Step of the Great Dao before, and not just the Seventh Step, she had even seen Saints of the Eighth Step.
Back then, she had been caught and taken to the Dao Tower, and in front of those strong ones of the Seventh and Eighth Steps, she was less than an ant.
Now, Qu Yi was confident she could handle any Seventh Step or even Eighth Step practitioner on Tongti Star Land.
No wonder her elder brother wanted her to stay here alone to advance to a Saint of the Universe.
That was because Ding Huan knew very well that once she advanced to a Saint of the Universe here, she would have the capability to protect herself after leaving the First Universe.
Suppressing her troubled thoughts, Qu Yi turned to look at Ding Huan.
Previously focused solely on proving the Seventh Step of the Universe Saint, Qu Yi hadn't paid attention to Ding Huan's situation.
Now that she had stepped into the Seventh Step, looking at Ding Huan, she was immediately shocked by the sight before her.
The elemental energy from the vast Yuan Vein Lake was being absorbed by Ding Huan like a giant whale drawing in water.
Ding Huan's entire body was wrapped in the liquefied vast elemental energy, and she could only feel his aura continuously rising.
Qu Yi wasn't too sure about the level of Ding Huan's strength.
What Qu Yi did know was that after stepping into the Seventh Step of the Great Dao, her strength was still far inferior to Ding Huan's previous strength.
And it had taken her seven thousand years to step into the Seventh Step of the Great Dao.
All these years, she had been frantically absorbing vast elemental energy.
Without comparison, she knew that the speed and amount at which she absorbed vast elemental energy were definitely top-notch among Saints of the Seventh Step of the Great Dao.
After comparison, she realized that her absorption speed and amount were probably not even one percent of Ding Huan's.
The key point was that Ding Huan was still frantically absorbing vast elemental energy, as if the vast Yuan Vein Lake wasn't enough for him.
Qu Yi immediately realized that her presence here would definitely affect Ding Huan's Great Dao.
She quickly retreated backward.
When Qu Yi rushed out of the vast Yuan Vein Lake, she was shocked to find that the endless Void Algae was being transformed into vast elemental energy under Ding Huan's Great Dao.
This vast elemental energy filled the vast Yuan Vein Lake, only to be swept away again by Ding Huan.
Without these Void Algae, the vast Yuan Vein Lake would have dried up long ago.
At Ding Huan's cultivation rate, it seems that this stretch of Void Algae will eventually be consumed entirely by him.
Qu Yi retreated into the Void Algae.
But as soon as she entered the Void Algae, Qu Yi regretted it.
Almost instantaneously, she found herself lost.
Within the Void Algae, there was simply no sense of direction.
Her previously confident Divine Will couldn't extend here at all.
Qu Yi tried to calm herself down.
But she was perpetually anxious and uneasy.
If nothing unexpected happens, she'll probably never find her way out of the Void Algae.
If Ding Huan's Divine Will is somehow limited here as well, then perhaps he wouldn't be able to find her either.
Just as Qu Yi was feeling uneasy, the Void Algae beside her suddenly began to disintegrate and vanish, turning into infinite vast elemental energy.
When Qu Yi came to her senses, she found herself back in the vast Yuan Vein Lake...
It's not right to call it a vast Yuan Vein Lake anymore; it's so large it should probably be called a river now, right?
Qu Yi's Divine Will swept out, and she once again saw Ding Huan crazily absorbing the vast elemental energy.
Qu Yi let out a sigh of relief.
Just as long as Ding Huan is cultivating here, as long as she doesn't stray too far into the Void Algae, after some time, she'll reappear in this Yuan Vein Lake that Ding Huan has created.
Qu Yi no longer worried and once again entered the Void Algae.
...
Ding Huan had constructed eleven Void Dao Networks.
With each Void Dao Network he constructed, his speed of absorbing vast elemental energy increased to a new level.
Ding Huan himself was also amazed.
Previously, he always thought that virtually no one could consume all of the boundless Void Algae Forest.
Now, in his eyes, no matter how much Void Algae there is, as long as he can continuously construct new Void Dao Networks, he can continually consume endless vast elemental energy.
And be able to transform this vast primordial energy into one's own strength.
Indeed, the greatest obstacle to the Great Dao is not resources, nor talent and opportunity, but the blind spots in your thinking.
Time passed little by little like this.
If Qu Yi wasn't worried that staying in the Vast Primordial Vein Lake might affect Ding Huan's cultivation, she would never wander aimlessly in the Void Algae Forest.
For fifty thousand years, she wandered in the Void Algae Forest for a full fifty thousand years.
In these fifty thousand years, she did not cultivate, but managed to elevate the resilience of her divine will by a whole level.
She also discovered the vast opening source principle within the Void Algae.
No matter how gentle a person is, spinning aimlessly in this endless Void Algae Forest for fifty thousand years is enough.
Now Qu Yi feels like throwing up whenever she sees the Void Algae.
Luckily, although Qu Yi has no sense of direction, she doesn't retrace her steps.
Because if she went the wrong way, she would end up back at the Vast Primordial Vein Lake.
In the end, Qu Yi became somewhat numb.
When Qu Yi suddenly realized she was in an open space, she didn't know when she had rushed out of the Vast Void Algae Forest.
Looking back at the Void Algae behind her, Qu Yi felt like crying tears of joy.
Finally out of that dense Void Algae.
Now she only needed to wait for Ding Huan outside the Void Algae.
Qu Yi didn't know how much longer Ding Huan would need to come out of seclusion, so she simply laid down a simple defense array using the source principle outside the Void Algae.
In the defense array, Qu Yi set up a cave mansion space.
After all, having stayed in the Void Algae for tens of thousands of years, who knew how long Ding Huan would take to come out?
Qu Yi originally planned to wait here for another tens of thousands of years.
Even Qu Yi herself didn't expect Ding Huan to absorb the vast elemental power with such speed, and faster and faster.
In just a few hundred years, Qu Yi saw all the Void Algae disappear.
These vanished Void Algae transformed into vast primordial energy and the source principles of the endless opening, and then condensed into a vast cosmic river.
Without the influence of the Void Algae, Qu Yi could barely use her divine will to sense Ding Huan's location.
Only at this moment did Qu Yi finally breathe a sigh of relief.
With the Void Algae consumed by Ding Huan, it indicated Ding Huan was unharmed.
But she didn't have any cosmic origin vein by her side, nor did she want to enter the Vast Yuan Vein River to affect Ding Huan's cultivation progress.
She could only stay outside and wait.
Another ten thousand years passed, and Qu Yi heard Ding Huan's long roar.
She excitedly rushed out of the cave mansion.
Indeed, that boundless and vast cosmic river had long disappeared.
Not only that, but the sight before her was desolate.
Knowing that Ding Huan might absorb all the vast elemental power here, seeing it with her own eyes, Qu Yi still gasped.
This endless primordial energy, to birth someone like her, a Master of the Universe, who knows how many it would take.
And this terrifying energy was seemingly just enough for Ding Huan to step into the ninth step of the Great Dao...
No, wait, she seemed not to have sensed Ding Huan stepping into the ninth step of the Great Dao just now.
Did he fail?
"Yi Yi..."
Ding Huan's excited voice echoed.
Qu Yi quickly went up to meet him: "Big brother, did you succeed?"
Ding Huan shook his head: "No, still at the eighth step of the Great Dao."
Qu Yi's heart sank, she quickly grabbed Ding Huan's hand: "Unable to prove the ninth step, it means our opportunity has not yet arrived, let's think of another way."
Ding Huan reached out to hug Qu Yi, laughing heartily: "Don't worry, not stepping into the ninth step is actually a good thing, I would be a little disappointed if I had."
"Ah..."
Qu Yi looked at Ding Huan in confusion.
Ding Huan was truly not lying to Qu Yi, he had only constructed seventy-three void dao networks.
In Ding Huan's idea, constructing a one hundred and eight void dao networks, completing the Tian Gang Di Sha number and then stepping into the ninth step of the Great Dao would be the best.
Before stepping into the ninth step, the more vast primordial energy needed, the stronger the Great Dao he was creating.
The ninth step of the Great Dao is not important, what matters is that his strength can continue to improve.
Next, he would continue to search for the vast Yuan Vein River.
As for the Cosmic Origin Veins and Cosmic Yuan Vein Mountain, in Ding Huan's eyes, they could no longer satisfy his needs.
"Don't worry, even though I have not stepped into the ninth step, I believe my current strength should be capable of dealing with those few Realm Lords..."
Ding Huan had never confronted Mo Yuantian, he believed that absorbing the vast primordial energy contained in these Void Algae, if he still couldn't deal with Mo Yuantian, how strong could Mo Yuantian be?
Even if he couldn't deal with Mo Yuantian, he shouldn't be crushed.
"Hmm, where shall we go next?" Qu Yi refrained from asking further.
"A Realm Lord wants to see me, I'll go see what he means."
After Ding Huan consumed all the Void Algae, he received numerous messages from Shen Dai.
(Goodnight, fellow Daoist!)
