Post-Mythical Era: I don't want to die in the third reincarnation-Chapter 1205 - 1198: Another One Comes Looking for Ding Huan

"Qi Qitang, we have no past grievances or recent enmity, yet you conspire against me here with my enemy. If you are willing to listen to me, let's find a place to talk peacefully."

Ding Huan was desperately trying to stall for time.

He was certain that he was not a match for Qi Qitang.

"Ancestor Qi, he is stalling for time." Di Xin immediately revealed Ding Huan's intentions.

Qi Qitang said calmly, "I know, even if he calls everyone from the Second Universe, so what..."

Qi Qitang's words suddenly paused.

He had heard that Ding Huan had two rather powerful friends, and if Ding Huan was delaying for them, he didn't mind.

But if the rumors were true that Ding Huan was waiting for Sword Heaven, what then?

Thinking of this, Qi Qitang unleashed his Tao Domain without reservation, spreading it directly.

At the same time, under his Tao Domain, a Source Principle confinement space was constructed by him.

He intended to trap Ding Huan within his Source Principle space.

Whether the rumors of Ding Huan and Sword Heaven joining forces were true or not, first capture Ding Huan, then tear apart Ding Huan's Tao Universe, and talk later.

Ding Huan had long been on guard against Qi Qitang's domain, so when it suddenly unfolded, he was not afraid.

But Ding Huan immediately felt something amiss; the space he was in seemed to be suddenly extracted.

This was Qi Qitang constructing an independent Source Principle space under his domain.

Qi Qitang wanted to separate the space he was in and then extract it.

Ding Huan was secretly horrified at how powerful this was.

If it weren't for his familiarity with the vast origin Source Principle reaching a certain level, when Qi Qitang's domain suppressed, the space he was in would have been extracted.

Once the space was extracted, he and Ye Xuan would be like small fish at the dry bottom of a pond.

Forcibly tearing apart the Source Principle space.

Ding Huan knew that the Source Principle space could be separated, but he couldn't do it.

Last time, Ding Huan even heard Mo Wuji say that Qi Qitang might still be injured.

Now it seemed that Qi Qitang's injuries had long disappeared, and he was at his peak.

Ding Huan frantically burned Essence Blood, while the Source Principle domain unfurled without reservation.

His extending Source Principle domain was entirely composed of his own Taoist Source Principles.

In front of Qi Qitang, using the First Universe's Source Principles to stir his own Tao Domain was seeking death.

Boom!

Ding Huan's domain shattered instantly, and his Taoist Source Principles were also fragmented.

It wasn't that Ding Huan's Taoist Source Principles were inferior to Qi Qitang's Taoist Source Principles, but because Ding Huan's Taoist Rhythm was much weaker than the opponent's.

Even though Ding Huan's domain shattered, he used his own domain's obstruction to forcibly tear apart Qi Qitang's Source Principle space and rushed out of Qi Qitang's space control with Ye Xuan.

Ding Huan looked a bit pale.

Qi Qitang hadn't even made a move yet; merely with the Source Principle space confinement and domain suppression, he couldn't resist.

Once Qi Qitang made a move, if he didn't leave, he could only wait for death.

"Eh..."

Qi Qitang made a sound of surprise, staring at Ding Huan, his eyes filled with disbelief.

Unlike others, he could see clearly that Ding Huan had not stepped into the ninth step of the Grand Tao.

A being who hadn't stepped into the ninth step of the Grand Tao could actually use his own Tao Domain to break free from the confinement of his Source Principle space, which was simply defying nature.

This not only required evolving one's own Taoist Source Principle Universe, but also a deep understanding of every spatial Source Principle of the First Universe.

To understand the spatial Source Principles of the First Universe, one had to understand the process of the vast formation and primary division.

Ding Huan was not a Dao Spirit but came from a lower universe; how could he understand the primary division of the vastness?

If he were now at the eighth step of the Tao, facing such a powerful Source Principle space confinement and extraction, don't say breaking free, he probably couldn't even struggle.

Moreover, the Tao Domain Source Principles Ding Huan extended earlier had nothing to do with the First Universe, nor were they related to the vast Source Principles beneath it.

The typically indifferent Qi Qitang felt an instant surge of murderous intent.

Today, Ding Huan must be killed. If not, once Ding Huan steps into the ninth step of the Grand Tao, Qi Qitang would definitely not be his match.

Just from Ding Huan's extended Source Principle domain, with that kind of independent Taoist Rhythm unaffected by the vast Source Principles, one could tell it was only a matter of time before Ding Huan steps into the vast ninth step.

Ding Huan likewise noticed the undisguised murderous intent from Qi Qitang.

Had it not been for Ku Ya still being here, he would have turned and left long ago.

"Qi Qitang, if you dare to make another move, then I will leave now. Do you believe that if I want to leave, you absolutely can't catch me?"

Ding Huan proactively interrupted Qi Qitang's actions.

Qi Qitang glared at Ding Huan without immediate action.

He was calculating whether he could keep Ding Huan.

Ding Huan had his own Tao, and his constructed Tao Domain was also his own Source Principle domain.

Now, Ding Huan was outside of his Tao Domain.

If he made any move, Ding Huan would immediately perceive it.

With Ding Huan's capabilities, once he detected Qi Qitang's action, he would surely escape immediately.

Ding Huan must not be allowed to escape; he must be killed.

Though Qi Qitang did not reside in the First Universe, he was familiar with every Source Principle here.

What he needed to do now was to subtly ensnare Ding Huan into his Tao Domain.

Once his Tao Domain locks onto the space where Ding Huan is, he will never give Ding Huan a second chance to escape.

Although Ding Huan's strength is a significant level lower than Qi Qitang's, he has been cultivating outside of the Nine Abysses for so long that he is equally clear about the Source Principles beneath the vast expanse.

Qi Qitang doesn't have an overwhelming advantage over him.

No matter how cautious Qi Qitang is, even if he isolates his Tao Domain with a Domain. However, when Qi Qitang constructed the Source Principle space outside of his Tao Domain, Ding Huan still detected it immediately.

Ding Huan sensed with his Divine Will and found that there was still no news from Sword Heaven.

He sighed and decided to leave first.

After meeting up with Sword Heaven, he would rescue Ku Ya.

Otherwise, if Ku Ya couldn't be rescued, he himself would have ended up trapped.

"Brother Qi, what a surprise to meet you here…" a gentle voice came.

Qi Qitang was startled, instantly stopping the construction of the Source Principle space.

His mind was entirely focused on how to capture Ding Huan, and he hadn't noticed someone arriving.

Ding Huan also sensed Qi Qitang halting the construction of the Source Principle space to restrain him.

Since Qi Qitang could not build the Source Principle space now, he was in no hurry to leave.

Ding Huan's Divine Will also fell on the newcomer.

This person was taller than Qi Qitang, with a simple and honest face, coupled with a gentle voice, seemingly an easygoing person.

His clothing was made of genuine cloth, though the fabric seemed to be refined from vast treasures.

The key was that this person's aura seemed no weaker than Qi Qitang's.

Ding Huan frowned; with just Qi Qitang, he could still escape.

But with another person no weaker than Qi Qitang, if the two joined forces, neither he nor Ye Xuan would have a chance to leave.

With that thought, Ding Huan transmitted a message to Ye Xuan, and the two retreated further back.

Qi Qitang saw Ding Huan withdraw but found it hard to take action now. He could only smile at the newcomer:

"I was wondering who it was, and it's Brother Che. Indeed it's been a long time, meeting you here is indeed a joyous occasion."

Hearing Qi Qitang's words, Ding Huan also guessed who the person was.

So it was a narrow path for enemies to meet.

Che Bu.

A hundred or two hundred years ago, he used to mock Che Bu's Dao companion Zhi Fu.

And now he met Che Bu.

This guy was also one of the five ancestors of the vastness, and it's uncertain if he had met Zhi Fu, and whether he came here for him this time.

Logically speaking, even if Che Bu met Zhi Fu, he and Ye Xuan coming here should remain unknown to Che Bu.

No matter what, it's best to be cautious.

"Brother Qi, what's going on?" Che Bu's eyes swept over Ding Huan and Ye Xuan before turning back to Qi Qitang.

Qi Qitang spoke with a somewhat murderous tone:

"Brother Che, this person is from the Outer Universe. He relied on despicable means to sneak attack Mr. Di Xin, severely injuring him. Not only that, but he also snatched Mr. Di Xin's treasure."

Di Xin stepped forward timely and bowed: "Di Xin greets Ancestor Che."

Behind him, Shang and Ji Yijian hurried forward to pay their respects.

Che Bu turned to Ding Huan and asked, "May I ask, are you Ding Huan?"

Ding Huan's heart sank; this guy knew he was called Ding Huan. Could it be that he had met Zhi Fu?

It's said this guy is a sycophant, and if he had met Zhi Fu, then today would be dangerous.

"Indeed, it is Ding." Ding Huan's tone was neither humble nor pushy.

As soon as Che Bu shows any inclination to join forces with Qi Qitang, he would immediately flee without a moment's hesitation.

"Have you been beyond the Nine Abysses?" Che Bu looked at Ding Huan in surprise.

Ding Huan did not conceal it. Everyone already knew about this, so hiding it was meaningless: "Indeed, I have been beyond the Nine Abysses."

Hearing these words, Qi Qitang's heart sank.

If Ding Huan had been beyond the Nine Abysses, it meant the Great Web of Principles had been used up.

No wonder Ding Huan was so clear about the primordial Source Principles of the vastness, as beyond the Nine Abysses is where the Source Principles of the vastness were formed, isn't it?

Che Bu nodded and turned to Qi Qitang, saying, "Brother Qi, it's best to resolve enmities. Since Mr. Ding has been beyond the Nine Abysses, the Great Web of Principles should have been expended.

Moreover, as far as I know, the Great Web of Principles on Mr. Di Xin is the ninth principle, which fundamentally cannot withstand the tearing Source Principles beyond the Nine Abysses."

Hearing this, Ding Huan thought to himself; it was rumored that Che Bu was honest and didn't strive for anything.

Now, hearing Che Bu's words, Ding Huan understood.

Che Bu was definitely not an honest person; this person probably knew everything.

It's just unclear why Che Bu would want to help him today?

Qi Qitang frowned and took a deep breath, cupping his fists towards Che Bu: "Mr. Che, I must take Ding Huan away today.

I only hope Mr. Che will not obstruct my actions..."

Being one of the five ancestors, Qi Qitang naturally feared not Che Bu.

Besides, Che Bu was ranked last among the five ancestors, and based on strength alone, he felt he could suppress Che Bu.

However, Ding Huan was like an eel, and as long as Che Bu intervened, Ding Huan would surely escape.

Che Bu chuckled: "I'm just passing by here, how could I possibly interfere in the grievances between you two? But I have some matters that are also related to Mr. Ding."

(Good night, Fellow Daoist!)
