Post-Mythical Era: I don't want to die in the third reincarnation-Chapter 406 - 401: One Dead, One Escaped

Just as expected, after finding a trace of the Devouring Dao Silver, the Great Universe Technique quickly stripped the Dao Rhythm Law of the Devouring Dao Silver away.

Ding Huan's aura also surged wildly at this moment, and with the enhancement of the Law Dao Fruit, his understanding of the Dao Rhythm Law of the Devouring Dao Silver became clearer and clearer.

Soon, a new Law appeared in the Cosmic Star River within his Sea of Consciousness Dao Universe—this was the Bone Devouring Dao Principle of the Devouring Dao Silver.

Although Ding Huan was still unable to utilize this Law against enemies, now that his Star River contained this Law, it was only a matter of time before he could employ it against foes as his cultivation increased.

The Great Universe Technique Circulation absorbed Immortal Spiritual Energy, allowing Ding Huan to step from the Golden Immortal Fourth Layer into the Golden Immortal Fifth Layer.

Finally removing the Bone Devouring Dao Rhythm of the Devouring Dao Silver excited Ding Huan tremendously, and he was equally delighted that his Star River now contained the Bone Devouring Dao Principle.

Compared to the Ten Thousand Poisons Law, this Bone Devouring Dao was a real trump card.

Many cultivators who practiced poison were extremely familiar with the Poison Dao Law, and those with stronger cultivation could be immune to myriad poisons.

There were many who were immune to myriad poisons, but truly few were impervious to all Laws.

Moreover, even those immune to all Laws might not necessarily be able to withstand the terrifying devouring power of the Bone Devouring Dao.

As soon as Ding Huan ceased his cultivation, Wen Zhixi realized it, and she immediately looked towards him, "Brother Ding, how are you?"

Ding Huan nodded, "I'm fine, what about those two?"

"Still not here. Shall we continue waiting here, or shall we go back towards the water swamp?" Wen Zhixi asked softly.

"Wait a moment, they will definitely come," Ding Huan replied.

…

"Brother Yi, could it be that Wen Zhixi has known about the existence of swamp tides here all along?" Fu Shuangping, who had escaped from the swamp tide, was filled with anger.

Ku Tingyi thought for a long while before he said, "It shouldn't be likely. If it weren't for your insistence to go to the water swamp, those who would have encountered the swamp tide there should have been them."

Fu Shuangping snorted, "What? Are you blaming me now?"

Ku Tingyi hastily gestured with his hands, "No, it's just that I think those two were luckier."

Fu Shuangping, annoyed, threw the Immortal Crystal in her hand forcefully onto the ground, "Damn it, it cost me a life-saving Prohibition Pattern."

Fu Shuangping's anger grew as she spoke.

Ku Tingyi dared not respond; he knew what Fu Shuangping meant.

The life-saving Prohibition Pattern that Fu Shuangping mentioned was left by her ancestors, in total three, and one had already been used up before. Now, another had been consumed.

This meant that Fu Shuangping now had only one life-saving Prohibition Pattern left.

"Sister Ping, let's go to Dry Swamp, there's a good chance they've been seriously injured," Ku Tingyi didn't want to keep listening to Fu Shuangping's endless talk.

If he didn't need to rely on this woman in every aspect and fear her trump cards, he would have already kicked her to death.

"You're just wanting to take advantage of that Miss Wen, aren't you?" Fu Shuangping said scornfully as she glanced at Ku Tingyi.

Ku Tingyi quickly shook his head, "If you dislike Miss Wen, I can kill her too, I just want the Immortal Crystals on her."

Fu Shuangping sneered viciously, "Why kill her? I want to see for myself what kind of woman she is."

After saying this, Fu Shuangping's Divine Will landed on her ring.

She intended to take out a set of clothes to change into, but as soon as her Divine Will touched the ring, her expression changed.

"Sister Ping, what's wrong?" Ku Tingyi looked at Fu Shuangping with concern, knowing that such an expression on her face meant something significant had happened.

"Did you take my golden Tao Fruit?" Fu Shuangping's eyes turned icy cold as she stared at Ku Tingyi.

Ku Tingyi frowned and said, "Sister Ping, how could I take your things? Your things are in the ring, what right or ability do I have to touch your ring?"

Hearing this, Fu Shuangping was taken aback.

Indeed, if Ku Tingyi could break through her ring, wouldn't that mean his Array Dao was stronger than hers?

In reality, when Ku Tingyi came to the Billions of Void Swamps with her, he was merely at the Immortal Bridge Realm.

Later, he followed her and practiced cultivation, and, in terms of the Array Dao, he didn't even have the chance to touch it, so how could he possibly break into her ring?

Besides, her Divine Will could easily penetrate Ku Tingyi's ring; if the Tao Fruit were in Ku Tingyi's ring, she would have noticed it immediately.

"Someone took something from your ring?" Ku Tingyi also sensed that something was amiss.

Fu Shuangping nodded, "The golden Tao Fruit that my ancestor left to me and told me to bring to a certain place has disappeared."

"It must have been taken by Wen Zhixi. That woman might really be skilled in the Array Dao; otherwise, how could she survive here?"

Ku Tingyi was unsure whether the Tao Fruit was taken by Wen Zhixi, but now he had to affirm it was Wen Zhixi, for if he was doubted by Fu Shuangping again, it would not be good for him.

Fu Shuangping stared at Ku Tingyi, "I have no patience right now. We will go find that vile woman immediately, and once we see her, you take action right away. Once we find the Tao Fruit, I will allow you to keep her with you for a while."

"Fine," Ku Tingyi agreed without hesitation.

The two rushed towards Ding Huan and Wen Zhixi.

"They're coming," Ding Huan pulled down the shielding Forbidden Array but didn't withdraw the Immortal Spirit Vein.

An Immortal Spirit Vein lay here, and since Ding Huan had even taken away the shielding Forbidden Array, neither Ku Tingyi nor Fu Shuangping were blind—they saw Ding Huan and Wen Zhixi from afar.

"You still have an Immortal Spirit Vein?" Fu Shuangping's eyes widened as she looked at the Immortal Spirit Vein on the ground.

Wen Zhixi replied with utmost calmness, "Yes."

"Didn't you say the Immortal Spirit Vein was taken by a senior?" Ku Tingyi blurted out.

Wen Zhixi said indifferently, "Who said there can only be one Immortal Spirit Vein here?"

Suddenly, Ku Tingyi reached out to grab the Immortal Spirit Vein.

Almost at the same time, Ding Huan summoned the Reincarnation Spear and blasted it out.

Wen Zhixi thought that Ding Huan was definitely going to attack Ku Tingyi, but only when she saw clearly whom Ding Huan was targeting did she realize that his Reincarnation Spear was aimed at Fu Shuangping.

Without hesitation, Wen Zhixi drew her sword and slashed at Ku Tingyi.

Since Ding Huan was targeting Fu Shuangping, she couldn't let Ku Tingyi interfere with Ding Huan's actions.

Neither Ku Tingyi nor Fu Shuangping expected that Ding Huan, sitting on the ground, could actually move.

Not only could he move, his strength seemed to be very strong.

As Fu Shuangping saw Ku Tingyi make a move, she reached out for a red thread.

This was her Fu Family's Forbidden Artifact, not to mention Ding Huan and Wen Zhixi—even if there were Da Yi Immortals or even Daluo Immortals here, her red thread could lay out a Heavenly Net, binding everyone present.

The value of this Forbidden Artifact was immeasurable; logically, it should not be used against Wen Zhixi and Ding Huan.

She was worried about the what-ifs.

If Wen Zhixi and Ding Huan escaped, losing that Tao Fruit, even dying ten thousand times wouldn't be enough to compensate.

So she'd rather misuse such a powerful material, using this Forbidden Artifact to lock down these two, than allow any chance of mishap to occur.

However, just as she summoned the Forbidden Artifact and had not fully activated it, she felt a breath of death enveloping all her vitality.

Fu Shuangping was terrified; in her panic, she didn't even think of the Tao Fruit, and hastily triggered her last escaping Prohibition Pattern.

As she activated her Prohibition Pattern, she then remembered the matter with the Tao Fruit.

"Puff!" A mist of blood exploded from her arm, and then she was whisked away by the escaping Prohibition Pattern.

Her severed arm along with that red-thread Forbidden Artifact, however, was left behind.

Boom! Ku Tingyi's Magical Treasure collided with Wen Zhixi's long sword, casting off strands of residual Dao Rhythm light.

Just one exchange revealed to Ku Tingyi that he was no match for Wen Zhixi.

Only then did he realize that Fu Shuangping had actually fled alone.

Not only had Fu Shuangping fled, but Ding Huan was unscathed.

Before he could withdraw, Ding Huan's Reincarnation Spear swept over with endless killing intent.

Ku Tingyi felt his Domain being shattered to pieces, and under the lock of Ding Huan's killing intent, he simply couldn't escape.

Ku Tingyi was petrified, Ding Huan turned out to be even stronger than Wen Zhixi.

He couldn't even defeat Wen Zhixi; how could he possibly fight Ding Huan?

And at this crucial moment, Fu Shuangping had fled alone, without even signaling to him.

"Stop, I surrender…" Ku Tingyi didn't even know what to say to save his life; the words of surrender had spilled out.

"Puff!" Without Ding Huan having to use any Divine Skills, the Reincarnation Spear tore through Ku Tingyi's brow, exploding his head into a cloud of blood.

"This guy is so weak," Ding Huan sighed as he retracted the Reincarnation Spear.

Wen Zhixi knew Ding Huan was stronger than her, so she wasn't surprised that his spear blew open Ku Tingyi's head in one shot.

She merely smiled, "These two were very likely cultivating in the Billions of Void Swamps; they might not have even entered the Immortal Domain.

The cultivation here is so patchy with Immortal Spiritual Energy; for him to have cultivated to Profound Immortal level, he must be considered extremely gifted."

Ding Huan nodded; Wen Zhixi's words weren't wrong.

In this place, to have cultivated to the mid-stage of Profound Immortal wasn't just a matter of being gifted; it was downright freakish.

With a sweep, Ding Huan grabbed Ku Tingyi's ring, his Divine Will quickly breaking the Prohibition on Ku Tingyi's ring.

"This guy is really poor, there's nothing in the ring. All the good stuff must be with Fu Shuangping," Ding Huan couldn't help but to complain after seeing the contents of the ring.

"Billions of Void Swamps didn't naturally possess any heaven-defying treasures to begin with, and since they've been cultivating here, it's normal for them to have nothing worthwhile," Wen Zhixi said.

Ding Huan walked over and picked up the red thread.

"This is a top-tier Forbidden Artifact…" Wen Zhixi's gaze fell upon the red thread in Ding Huan's hands, her expression subtly changing.

She had just used a Forbidden Artifact not long ago, the Soul-locking Burst Needle.

If Fu Shuangping had activated this Forbidden Artifact earlier, they probably would have had no choice but to be at others' mercy.

Wen Zhixi looked at Ding Huan, her heart filled with admiration; indeed, every move Ding Huan made had a purpose.
