Post-Mythical Era: I don't want to die in the third reincarnation-Chapter 1170 - 1163: Doomsday Gods
As soon as he approached the World of Gods, Ding Huan felt something was amiss.
The universe of the World of Gods was filled with an aura of decay and withering.
Ding Huan, having cultivated in the First Universe for hundreds of thousands of years, had encountered various vast primordial principles and origin laws.
Although he hadn't been to the Eightfold Expanse Canyon or encountered the myriad of miasma principles, he knew this aura signaled the impending withering and collapse of a universe.
The Heaven and Earth Rules of the World of Gods were clear, and the Cosmic Dao Network was stable, so how could there be withering and decay?
This must be man-made.
Who on earth would commit such a vile act?
The first thing Ding Huan thought of was Di Xin and the center of Chaos.
He felt that this matter was likely related to the three of them, and they might even be accomplices.
He, Lan Xiaobu, and Mo Wuji had eliminated all the powerful beings at the center of Chaos in the World of Gods and then ambushed Di Xin, driving him out of the World of Gods.
Could it be that because Di Xin left, someone coveted the fortune and Cosmic Dao Network of the World of Gods?
Ding Huan directly kept away the Cosmic Pot and teleported with Qu Yi to the outskirts of Blue Star Island.
The Source Principle Protecting Array of Blue Star Island was intact, and Ding Huan let out a sigh of relief.
As he scanned with his Divine Will, he immediately saw many people.
Nian Huan, Thick Trace God Emperor, Qiao Qianhe, Shi Changxing, Shi Wanrong, and others were all there.
Jia Baihe and Guan Huan were nowhere to be seen.
As Ding Huan, along with Qu Yi, opened the Source Principle Realm, Nian Huan rushed over.
"Mom..." Her first glance landed on Qu Yi, and she rushed forward, tightly embracing Qu Yi.
As expected, Dad wasn't lying, Mom was safe and sound.
Nian Huan's eighth step on the Great Dao was completely stable, but her Great Dao was built upon the Great Universe Technique.
Nian Huan hadn't modified the Great Universe Technique with her own Great Dao, and in terms of potential, she lagged behind Qu Yi.
Qu Yi, having cultivated in the vast Primordial Vein River of the First Universe, gained insights while simulating various Void Dao Networks, reconstructing her own origin Dao Technique.
Her potential skyrocketed.
The others came up and exchanged greetings.
After a long separation, everyone felt a touch of nostalgia.
After greeting everyone, the first thing Ding Huan did was inquire about Jia Baihe.
"Ga Daoist went to the center of Chaos and hasn't returned." Thick Trace God Emperor spoke with a hint of lament in his voice.
Ding Huan's heart sank; Jia Baihe must have gone looking for him.
With Jia Baihe's strength, entering the center of Chaos in the World of Gods shouldn't have been problematic.
Perhaps Jia Baihe found Di Xin's old lair and entered the First Universe.
Ding Huan felt that Jia Baihe should be alright; they were Dao companions, and if something happened to Jia Baihe, he would definitely sense it.
"Dad, I went looking for Aunt Jia. The center of Chaos has long been devoid of people. I couldn't find Aunt Jia, so I returned."
Nian Huan spoke cautiously.
She knew that Aunt Jia held almost the same place in her father's heart as her mother did.
"And what about Brother Guan Huan?"
"Since Brother Guan and I parted ways, I haven't heard from him either. In this incident with the World of Gods, Brother Guan is similarly absent." Qiao Qianhe sighed, having shared a good relationship with Guan Huan, who had saved his life more than once.
Lack of news is the greatest news.
It means Guan Huan likely encountered trouble.
Guan Huan's strength was actually quite good, but that was in a medium-level universe.
Upon reaching the World of Gods, Guan Huan's strength likely placed him at the bottom, possibly making him an easy target for a mere passerby in the World of Gods.
Ding Huan sighed inwardly; the path of the Great Dao was inherently fraught with challenges, and missteps leading to demise were all too common.
"What happened in the World of Gods? Why do I sense decay and decline throughout this universe?"
"Dad, there's a ruthless person stripping the Great Dao fortune and Cosmic Dao Network of the World of Gods. He has killed nearly ninety percent of the cultivators in the World of Gods.
Not only did he strip the Great Dao fortune from the World of Gods, but he also stripped the fortune from many Void Islands on the periphery of the World of Gods..." Nian Huan's tone was somewhat downcast.
After Ding Huan left, whether in the Fog Realm or the First Universe, she was basically unmatched.
Even when occasionally encountering one or two strong opponents, at most, they ended in a tie.
With her father Ding Huan's illustrious reputation in the Fog Realm and the World of Gods, people generally avoided confronting Nian Huan, even if they could defeat her.
However, facing the person who deprived the Great Dao fortune and the Cosmic Dao Network of the World of Gods, she didn't dare to battle him.
She knew very well that she stood no chance, and taking any action would lead to her God Soul's annihilation.
With his cruelty and ruthlessness, he likely wouldn't spare her, even considering Ding Huan's reputation.
That person probably didn't even know Ding Huan.
Ding Huan noticed Nian Huan's low spirits and patted her on the head. "Don't be discouraged. It's normal for his strength to surpass yours, considering he has understood the vast origin principles and uses the Cosmic Origin Veins for cultivation.
Your eighth step is imperfect and needs to be re-understood.
You must verify the eighth step of the Great Dao with the Source Principle of your own world, reshape the cosmic origin principle of your own Great Dao world, and use the Cosmic Origin Veins for cultivation, not ordinary Dao Veins."
Ding Huan did not take out the Cosmic Origin Veins for Nian Huan.
Most of his Cosmic Origin Veins had been given to Qu Yi.
Qu Yi had at least tens of thousands of Cosmic Origin Veins.
The Cosmic Origin Veins that Kui Feng and others compensated to Shen Dai were all with Qu Yi.
Because of Ding Huan's formidable presence, they dared not to play petty tricks with just a few Cosmic Origin Veins.
Even Zuo Yang, who paid the least, compensated with five thousand Cosmic Origin Veins.
Once he leaves, Qu Yi will distribute these Primordial Veins, so he doesn't have to worry about that.
After comforting Nian Huan, Ding Huan's mind was occupied with the person who stripped the World of Gods of its destiny.
Having mingled in the First Universe for so long, Ding Huan wasn't entirely ignorant of those powerful beings who accompany its great creation.
He was wondering who dared to strip the World of Gods after Di Xin left the Chaos Center.
This person's level probably isn't weaker than the ten Realm Lords, but certainly not one of the ten.
He had seen the ten Realm Lords of the First Universe, and except for Shen Dai, every one of them was rich beyond measure.
These guys probably don't care for the destiny of a single world, much less come to strip the Cosmic Dao Network of the World of Gods.
If not even the ten Realm Lords care for the Taoist aura and Dao Network here, then the One-Origin-Three-Dao and Five Ancestors are even less likely.
"Do you know what that person's name is?" 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞
"I know, his name is Qing Qi," Hou Hen Divine Emperor immediately said.
Qing Qi?
Ding Huan recalled the message Fu Zhenxi left him on the iron ball.
That iron ball was left by Qing Qi, who said he was imprisoned by Di Xin and wanted the person who got the iron ball to find Hong Jun to rescue him.
Qing Qi's words seemed quite smooth, making him appear to be a decent person.
But this guy didn't offer any promises, clearly looking like someone who loves to enjoy for free.
Ding Huan never intended to help this guy.
Later Qing Qi was supposedly rescued by Zuo Shanyi.
Ding Huan thought Zuo Shanyi had killed Qing Qi, but unexpectedly, Qing Qi was unharmed and could strip the destiny and Dao Network of a world here.
These grand forces indeed contain few good individuals.
He and Mo Wuji, Lan Xiaobu were truly indirect accomplices.
Because they destroyed the Chaos Center of the World of Gods, severely wounding Di Xin.
Now not only that, the Realm Lords of the First Universe have no time to manage Qing Qi.
As a result, Qing Qi started to act unscrupulously.
With no one to restrain this guy, he dared to destroy the World of Gods.
How is he any different from Qu Ba, who could destroy a realm at every turn?
No matter what, the World of Gods must not be destroyed.
Ding Huan promptly rearranged the Source Principle Position of Blue Star Island.
After securing Blue Star Island again, Ding Huan bid farewell to everyone as he hurried to the World of Gods.
No matter how strong Qing Qi's abilities are, he must make a move.
If he can eliminate Qing Qi, he plans to enter the First Universe from the World of Gods.
There are many things Ding Huan doesn't have time to explain, but it's okay with Qu Yi around.
Qu Yi knows he's going to the First Universe to prove the ninth step of the Great Dao and will explain to others.
...
Upon reaching the entrance of the World of Gods, Ding Huan knew there should be no living person left here.
Or more precisely, if he didn't come, except for Qing Qi, no one else would be alive in the entire World of Gods.
The World of Gods, once with clear cosmic laws, dense Taoist aura, and overflowing Primordial Energy, now is filled with a decaying atmosphere.
The first impression of today's World of Gods is that of gray and white hues.
Almost devoid of vitality.
At the entrance of the World of Gods, a few corpses were nailed.
Even though these corpses were reduced to blackened, skeletal remains, Ding Huan instantly recognized them.
The Hall Master of the Gods Hall Lou Poyi, Sect Master of the Seventh Step Xian Qingan, and...
Is it Gu Changyu from the Longevity Palace?
Ding Huan's heart sank, he had a favorable impression of Gu Changyu and Xian Qingan.
Gu Changyu was Qi Xinyue's master; Gu Changyu perished, what about Qi Xinyue?
And Xian Qingan, he was a decent person who also perished here.
Judging by the method, it was a clean kill of Xian Qingan.
Ding Huan took a deep breath, sweeping out his Divine Will, quickly sensing a green-robed man sitting amidst the void at the Chaos Center the World of Gods.
This man's face was like jade, surrounded by the aura of the Great Dao.
Like a whale sucking water, boundless cosmic destiny and Primordial Energy continuously stripped and drawn away by him, then taken away.
With each passing breath, the Heaven and Earth Fortune of the World of Gods diminishes, and its Cosmic Dao Network loosens.
While the aura on this green-robed man strengthens with each passing breath.
Taoist aura surrounds the green-robed man, nearly condensing into substance.
Looking at the World of Gods' countless Tao Cities and Taoist Sects, corpses litter the ground.
Each corpse is grayish; these bodies have no trace of life.
Just as if their Essence Blood was drained, like dry wood.
Despite having no direct connection to the World of Gods, Ding Huan couldn't contain the raging fury within his chest.
It is certain that once Qing Qi takes away all the Taoist aura and Cosmic Dao Network of the World of Gods, next will be the Void Island surrounding it.
Even if Qing Qi destroys the World of Gods and doesn't bother with the Void Islands.
Those Void Islands, after losing the World of Gods, will still wither and disband.
It's merely a matter of time.
(Good night, Daoist friend!)
