Post-Mythical Era: I don't want to die in the third reincarnation-Chapter 1165 - 1158: The Deal

This guy truly has resolve; since he couldn't obtain the broken body, he used it to escape from its source principle space. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Ji Yijian was stunned; he knew that if they actually fought, his current strength might even be weaker than Di Xin's.

Unexpectedly, Ding Huan severely injured Di Xin, and not only that, he left behind half of Di Xin's Dao body.

It's essential to understand that Di Xin's Dao body is exceptional; no amount of Primordial Vein could purchase it, as it is a treasure containing the vast Origin Spirit.

No way, how could Ding Huan heavily injure Di Xin?

While Ji Yijian was still replaying the events in his mind, Ding Huan had already rushed over, raised his hand, and took away the huge net left by Di Xin.

He had a net-like magical treasure, the Heavenly Seeking Net, a post-Chaos Supreme Treasure.

It was apparent that the huge net left by Di Xin was of a higher grade than the Heavenly Seeking Net, indeed a Chaos Treasure.

He vomited several mouthfuls of blood, even causing Qu Yi to spit out blood, how could he leave the object to Ji Yijian, who didn't intend to help?

Only when Ding Huan took away Di Xin's giant net did Ji Yijian come to his senses.

He admitted he had misjudged; Ding Huan intentionally lured Di Xin to kill him and then let Di Xin enter his source principle space, calculating against Di Xin.

Not only that, but Ding Huan also left behind half of Di Xin's Dao body, which was an asset indeed.

Ji Yijian sighed; although he was unhappy about Ding Huan taking the net that should have belonged to him, he was still annoyed with himself for misjudging...

No, he didn't misjudge; he previously thought Ding Huan's strength was formidable, just slightly weaker than his.

It was Ding Huan's performance that was too convincing, causing a misunderstanding.

Mistaking Ding Huan's cultivation was natural; he had never fought with Ding Huan and wasn't familiar with him.

Di Xin shouldn't have misunderstood Ding Huan's cultivation.

This time Di Xin's sneak attack was clearly aimed at Ding Huan, indicating Di Xin was aware of Ding Huan's strength; otherwise, he wouldn't have attacked so openly.

It was merely his unexpected presence that deprived Di Xin of the opportunity to ambush.

Di Xin clearly knew about Ding Huan's cultivation but was still outsmarted by Ding Huan.

This only indicates that when Ding Huan last faced Di Xin, his strength was actually low.

Ding Huan must have swiftly increased his strength within a short span, causing Di Xin to misunderstand Ding Huan's true power.

If the time interval had been long, Di Xin wouldn't have been so careless.

"Mr. Ding, your Daoist skill is profound; I, Ji, am impressed." Ji Yijian stepped forward and cupped his fist, his tone reverting to its previous sincerity and politeness.

Ding Huan ignored Ji Yijian, then turned to Qu Yi and said, "Moments ago, to take down this old bastard, you spat out a mouthful of blood."

Qu Yi flashed a charming smile, aware of Ding Huan's thoughts.

The animosity between Ding Huan and Di Xin was certainly deep-seated hatred.

Today, she paid the price of a mouthful of blood, potentially leaving Di Xin behind.

Even if Di Xin wasn't left behind, at least he would be heavily injured, posing little threat for tens of thousands of years.

This was for the sake of her and those around her.

Should she ever encounter Di Xin without Ding Huan by her side, the situation wouldn't be as simple as a single mouthful of blood.

Ji Yijian wasn't embarrassed that Ding Huan ignored him.

Previously, he had explicitly proposed teaming up with Ding Huan to deal with Si Wu.

Now, before even encountering Si Wu, he had schemed against Ding Huan; understandably, anyone would feel uncomfortable.

Such actions likely mean no one would dare to team up with him.

"Mr. Ding, I apologize for my previous thoughts. Earlier, I had some doubts about your strength, so allowed Di Xin to act against you without intervention.

I, Ji Yijian, swear that in the future when dealing with Si Wu, such things won't happen again."

Only now did Ding Huan glance at Ji Yijian: "Mr. Ji, you speak too heavily; I haven't lost anything in the end. Besides, if Brother Ji had intervened earlier, I wouldn't have had the chance to leave behind half of Di Xin's Dao body."

In Ding Huan's heart, he thought, no matter what Ji Yijian says, he won't trust this scoundrel anymore.

"Mr. Ding, when did you last face off against Di Xin?" Ji Yijian was eager to understand the timeframe of Ding Huan's strength improvement, feeling uneasy.

Of course, Ding Huan knew Ji Yijian's thoughts, he extended his hand and calculated:

"Perhaps two hundred... no, maybe three or four million... right, Mr. Ji, why are you asking about this?"

Ding Huan seemingly returned to his senses, confused as he looked at Ji Yijian.

Ji Yijian laughed heartily, relieved, then rubbed his hands: "Mr. Ding, do you have any use for Di Xin's Dao body?"

"What, does Mr. Ji desire it?" Ding Huan looked at Ji Yijian with a teasing smile.

Ji Yijian nodded awkwardly: "Yes, I want it."

"If you want it, just say so."

Ji Yijian beamed with a smile, thinking he had already said so.

"If you didn't speak up, I was about to exchange its position for the vast Yuan Vein River."

These words left Ji Yijian stunned; you want to exchange half a Dao body for the position of the vast Yuan Vein River?

Do you think the Dao body in your hand is a one-dollar bill or three paths? At the very least, it needs to be a part of one of the Five Patriarchs' Dao bodies.

Ding Huan internally scoffed.

How could he give the carefully calculated Dao body to a traitor like Ji Yijian?

If Ji Yijian could truly provide the position of the vast Yuan Vein River, it wouldn't be impossible to give it; even if it required the pieces of the Five Patriarchs' Dao bodies, he had them too.

"Mr. Ding, that small part of Di Xin's Dao body is indeed not enough to exchange for the Hao Han Yuan Mai River..."

Ding Huan heard this, and his heart was stirred. Could it be that this fellow really knows the location of the Hao Han Yuan Mai River?

He had just been casually making things up.

If Ji Yijian actually knows the location of the Hao Han Yuan Mai River, then perhaps it could be traded.

He still had one of Si Wu's eyes on him.

"Mr. Ji, even if I had a Hao Han Yuan Mai River, my cultivation might not fully utilize it.

I'm just looking to recover some of my strength. Once my strength is somewhat restored, won't our chances of dealing with Si Wu be greater?"

When Ding Huan learned about the Hao Han Yuan Mai River, he gave up on the idea of dealing with Si Wu.

He wanted to deal with Si Wu for the sake of the Hao Han Yuan Mai River, so why bother if Ji Yijian already had it?

Why not wait until he has taken the ninth step on the Great Dao to deal with Si Wu?

Ji Yijian chuckled inwardly.

He was a hundred percent sure that Ding Huan could consume a Hao Han Yuan Mai River.

If Ding Huan didn't have the ability to consume a Hao Han Yuan Mai River, he wouldn't have been able to plot against Di Xin in the first place.

"Mr. Ding, how about this, after we deal with Si Wu, I'll tell you the location of the Hao Han Yuan Mai River. However, you can only cultivate there for a maximum of a hundred thousand years, how about it?"

Ji Yijian desperately wanted the Origin Spirit of Hao Han but couldn't obtain it.

To get the Origin Spirit of Hao Han, only the three Dao Uncles of the Origin One had them.

Unless the Dao Spirit from the opening of Hao Han was involved, and would it even reach Ji Yijian?

Among the ten Realm Lords, only Mo Yuantian, Qu Ba, Kui Feng, and he possessed it.

It was a happenstance that he even had a hint of the Origin Spirit of Hao Han.

Di Xin was lucky, having the most Hao Han Origin Spirits.

This fellow thought himself to be noble-born, thus deserving to lead the Ten Realms, or even overthrow it to control the Shifang Universe.

But unfortunate he was, with ambitions vast as the sky yet fate thin as paper, losing battle after battle, and eventually driven out of the First Universe by the Realm Lords.

Now, back in the First Universe, he's in a constant state of fleeing and hiding.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be secretly plotting against Ding Huan here.

Ding Huan was pleased upon hearing he didn't need to hand over Si Wu's Daoist Eye to get an opportunity for cultivation in the Hao Han Yuan Mai River for a hundred thousand years. How could he pass it up?

"Mr. Ji, your words resonate with me, so let's happily decide on this."

Ji Yijian was sure that in a hundred thousand years, Ding Huan wouldn't deplete a Hao Han Yuan Mai River, not even a tenth of it.

Ding Huan disagreed, believing he could exhaust a Hao Han Yuan Mai River even before the hundred thousand years were up.

He might even take this Hao Han Yuan Mai River to affirm the ninth step on the Great Dao.

"Then Mr. Ding, let's quickly find your friend and deal with Si Wu," Ji Yijian said excitedly, hoping Ding Huan would immediately give him Di Xin's remnant body.

Disdain for Di Xin was one thing, but the allure of Di Xin's Dao body was another.

Ding Huan seriously looked at Ji Yijian and said, "Mr. Ji, if you first acquire Di Xin's Dao body and cultivate for a period, wouldn't our chances of plotting against Si Wu be greater in the future?"

Ji Yijian was taken aback. Was Ding Huan being so generous and open?

Of course, it was good, very good indeed.

For a moment, he even felt guilty for regarding Ding Huan as someone like himself.

"That's naturally great. I'm sure if I can obtain Di Xin's fragmented Dao body and retreat for a while, our success rate will increase by thirty percent. Rest assured, Si Wu's Hao Han Yuan Mai River is yours as well."

Ji Yijian's tone was somewhat excited.

Ding Huan was inwardly contemptuous. So he hadn't even been confident in a seventy percent success rate against Si Wu, and yet he expected me to risk my life?

This guy was up to no good.

Ding Huan remarked, "That's right. If I could also retreat in the Hao Han Yuan Mai River for a while before dealing with Si Wu, our success rate would increase by another ten percent."

Ji Yijian paused, realizing Ding Huan's meaning.

So it was not for free; they needed to trade first.

This made things a bit difficult for him.

How could Di Xin's small remnant body compare to the Hao Han Yuan Mai River?

His plan for a hundred thousand years was to guard Ding Huan post-dealing with Si Wu.

Now in a trade, he certainly wouldn't have time to guard.

Ding Huan didn't rush him.

After a while, Ji Yijian finally spoke, "Very well, then let's trade first, Mr. Ding. You give me Di Xin's Dao body, and I'll give you the location of the Hao Han Yuan Mai River.

Once our strength elevates to the next level, we can go search for Si Wu, how about it?"

Ding Huan continued smiling without saying a word.

Ji Yijian suddenly realized this was a cue to make a vow, retracting his earlier fleeting moment of guilt:

"I, Ji Yijian, swear that if Ding Huan gives me Di Xin's partial Dao body, I will also reveal the location of the Hao Han Yuan Mai River to Mr. Ding. Should I violate this oath, let the Great Dao crumble, and let me sink into the vastness."

After finishing, Ji Yijian proactively took out a Dao Scroll with a position marked on it and handed it to Ding Huan.

(Goodnight, Daoist friend!)
