Post-Mythical Era: I don't want to die in the third reincarnation

Chapter 1255 - 1248: The Out-of-Control Great Dao River

"Are you saying that this golden road river belongs to Ding Huan? Is this person currently sacrificing this expanse?" Qi Changqing's voice was as cold as her gaze.

Zuo Shanyi's face was full of righteousness, and he spoke powerfully, "Yes, it's this person, and we are trying to protect the expanse.

This is where we have grown, and I, Zuo Shanyi, will not allow anyone to sacrifice the living place of countless innocent cultivators, even if I die here."

"Yes, we absolutely cannot allow such a person to exist."

Ku Yue, knowing exactly how to stand at this moment, immediately echoed loudly.

The two people behind Ku Yue also said, "We are determined to protect this expanse, and we will do whatever Senior Qi does."

Qi Changqing's face relaxed slightly, she looked at the two people, then nodded and said to the burly man, "I know you. Your name is Chen Luo, and you founded the Buddha Way in this expanse."

Chen Luo was taken aback, quickly saying, "The junior is learning from the senior, but the junior's aptitude is dull and hasn't learned even a tenth of the senior's skills. The Great Dao has always been stagnant."

Qi Changqing smiled slightly, "After this, you should be able to make further progress."

After speaking, she turned to another cultivator, full of hostility, "You must be Lie Daozi, one of the five ancestors of the expanse?"

Lie Daozi quickly saluted again, "Junior is indeed Lie Daozi, and from now on, I will fully follow Senior's instructions."

"Very good."

Qi Changqing was very satisfied with the responses from them both. She turned towards Mo Wuji and Lan Xiaobu.

An Ting lowered his head, currently engaged in a fierce internal struggle.

With Zuo Shanyi, Ku Yue, and Chen Luo, they now have another top-level strong ally, Qi Changqing, who has coexisted with the expanse.

This strength is clearly superior to theirs.

On their side, Ye Xuan is still injured.

There are only Mo Wuji and Lan Xiaobu.

How should he choose now?

Join Qi Changqing or continue to stay with Mo Wuji's side?

An Ting, deep down, wanted to join Qi Changqing's side, but he also knew.

If he joined Qi Changqing now, he would probably be looked down upon by Ku Yue and the others.

While An Ting was still hesitating, Qi Changqing suddenly spoke, "Ye Xuan, I won't fuss over you secretly refining my expanse star core for now, but bring back my expanse star sword."

Before Ye Xuan could speak, Lan Xiaobu mocked, "I destroyed many Gods because I know that those who emerge from them are just scum.

What I didn't expect was that after all my efforts, there were still some remnants."

Qi Changqing's whole body was surging with killing intent, about to make a move.

Zuo Shanyi quickly said, "Mr. Qi, dealing with Ding Huan is the most important thing right now.

Mo Wuji and Lan Xiaobu might also help us deal with Ding Huan. Once Ding Huan is taken care of, we can do whatever we want afterwards."

Qi Changqing didn't know how terrifying Mo Wuji and Lan Xiaobu could be, but Zuo Shanyi knew all too well.

If they started fighting Mo Wuji and Lan Xiaobu now, even if they won, it would definitely be a Pyrrhic victory.

Then how would they go on to deal with Ding Huan?

More importantly, Zuo Shanyi knew that even if Mo Wuji and Lan Xiaobu had a good relationship with Ding Huan, they would never allow Ding Huan to sacrifice this expanse.

So now Mo Wuji and Lan Xiaobu were on their side, and even if they weren't, at least they wouldn't attack them.

In Zuo Shanyi's heart.

All grievances are trivial in the face of the Great Dao.

As long as it benefits his Great Dao, he would even be willing to call Mo Wuji and Lan Xiaobu his seniors.

Qi Changqing, hearing Zuo Shanyi's words, eased her killing intent.

She wondered if she made the first move now, whether Zuo Shanyi would help her.

If Zuo Shanyi didn't help her, she probably couldn't handle Mo Wuji and Lan Xiaobu alone.

But she couldn't tell Zuo Shanyi the truth.

She couldn't say that the greatest threat to her wasn't Mo Wuji and Lan Xiaobu, nor was it the Ding Huan they were going to deal with, but Ye Xuan.

To be precise, it was Ye Xuan's expanse star sword.

Thinking that Ye Xuan was injured and couldn't unleash the full power of the expanse star sword.

Qi Changqing simply said, "In that case, let's begin tearing apart this golden road river."

"Senior, we are still some distance from the vast Dao Ruins..."

Chen Luo cautiously said.

Qi Changqing sneered, "Distance? Does he still think he is an existence akin to the expanse's original spirit..."

After saying this, Qi Changqing took a step holding the expanse star core and landed at the edge of the golden road river.

To everyone's shock, Qi Changqing wasn't swept away by the golden road river. Her white dress fluttered without wind, gracefully holding the expanse star core by the golden road river, akin to a sovereign of the expanse.

Ku Yue's eyes widened.

Though she had approached once, knowing how to get close to that golden road river next time.

But she dared not, like Qi Changqing, stand by this golden river without any scruples and remain unaffected.

"Everyone, follow my lead..."

After Qi Changqing said this, the expanse star core in her hand transformed into a colossal planet.

"Boom!"

The colossal star core crashed onto the golden road river, tearing apart countless Daoist rhythms, exploding the golden source principles, causing the golden river to shake violently.

Jia Baihe was anxious, this golden road river belonged to Ding Huan. How could she allow this woman to attack Ding Huan's golden road river so recklessly?

If Ding Huan's golden road river were torn apart, wouldn't Ding Huan's Great Dao be in danger?

She wouldn't be concerned with what Ding Huan wanted to do.

Even if Ding Huan has to sacrifice the entire Vast Tree, she is unwavering in her resolve to help Ding Huan accomplish it.

Jia Baihe summoned her Magical Treasure and was about to charge forward.

Ku Yue and the others were even faster than her.

Upon seeing that Qi Changqing could attack Ding Huan's golden Dao river with impunity, Ku Yue, Zuo Shanyi, and Chen Luo immediately summoned their Magical Treasures and charged forward.

They knew perfectly well that as long as Ding Huan's golden Dao river was destroyed, Ding Huan was bound to fail.

Not only that, Ding Huan would suffer severe repercussions from the Dao's counterattack.

If they didn't act now, when would they?

Mo Wuji and Lan Xiaobu exchanged a glance and also charged in without hesitation.

Mo Wuji had known Ding Huan the longest and found it hard to believe Ding Huan would sacrifice this Vast Tree.

The only way to understand the situation clearly was to enter Ding Huan's golden Dao river.

No matter what Ding Huan intends, if these people continue to bombard Ding Huan's golden Dao river, his fate is dire.

…

At this moment, the golden Taoist Rhythm surrounding Ding Huan grew increasingly dense, and the Dao river carried a vast Dao sound, rolling out into the distance.

Countless cultivators had already seen this golden Dao river and were madly rushing towards it.

When such an opportunity arises, who would miss it?

Ku Yue and the others were simply faster.

Ding Huan stood at the source of this golden Dao river, his eyes slightly closed, as if he had already seen through the entire Vast Tree.

At this moment, Ding Huan finally understood why Ji Qiong had to sacrifice Dao.

At the same time, he realized one thing.

This Vast Tree could indeed only produce a strong individual who could take the ninth step beyond the Vast Tree.

His insight was the same.

When he took the ninth step beyond the Vast Tree's Dao, he would sacrifice the entire Vast Tree.

Meaning this Vast Tree and all universes beneath it would become his stepping stones to the ninth step of the Dao.

Feeling the Dao river spreading out wildly, coupled with the frantically multiplying infinite Dao Principles.

Ding Huan himself felt a sense of unease.

He knew if he continued this way, he might truly have to sacrifice this Vast Tree.

He certainly would not allow himself to sacrifice this Vast Tree.

His own Cosmic Origin Principle began to whirl violently; Ding Huan wanted to curb the fission of the Dao Principles within the golden Dao river.

The Dao Principles within the golden Dao river were crazily fissioning, expanding through his own Tao Universe; at this rate, his golden Dao river would soon break through to the First Universe.

Once the golden Dao river broke through the First Universe, even if he wanted not to sacrifice this Vast Tree, he wouldn't be able to do it.

But when Ding Huan began to swirl his own Cosmic Avenue Source Principle, his heart sank.

He couldn't restrain the fissioning of his golden Dao river.

At this point, Ding Huan realized that even if he killed Ji Qiong, he was still trapped by Ji Qiong's Dao.

Ding Huan's senses fell upon the Vast Tree; no wonder Ji Qiong didn't take it away.

It's not that Ji Qiong couldn't take it; this guy probably left it on purpose.

Ji Qiong may have been killed, but since Ji Qiong was born alongside this Vast Tree, saying he's immortal is no exaggeration.

If he fails to take the ninth step beyond the Vast Tree, he will also perish and vanish.

Ji Qiong was defeated by him; as long as he falls, Ji Qiong could definitely use the Source Principle of this Vast Tree to come back to life.

Moreover, Ji Qiong used his hand to sacrifice the entire Vast Tree.

If he sacrifices the entire Vast Tree and this Vast Tree comes back to life, Ji Qiong will certainly take the ninth step beyond the Vast Tree.

And at this moment, this Vast Tree had revived from its withered state; its vitality gradually became vigorous, even sprouting green shoots.

Ding Huan took a deep breath.

Even if he dies and vanishes, he won't let Ji Qiong's scheme succeed.

Boom!

Ding Huan felt that his Dao seemed to be cracking halfway.

The golden Dao river extending from beneath him surged crazily.

Ding Huan was furious.

Someone is attacking his Dao river.

Ding Huan was already unable to control his own Dao river, and at this moment, someone was attacking his Dao river.

This attack caused his Dao river to completely lose control.

The Dao river that had originally been restrained by Ding Huan burst completely open.

In an instant, the Dao river was no longer a river but transformed into a vast sea, then into a Great Vast Sea.

The Dao river poured out all kinds of Dao Source Principles, and endless Dao Principles fissioned.

Ding Huan opened his mouth and spat out a Blood Arrow.

At this moment, not only could he not control the entirely out-of-control Dao river, but he also couldn't use the Dao river to sacrifice the entire Vast Tree.

Not sacrificing the Vast Tree is one thing; things being out of control is another.

Ding Huan's anger nearly erupted.

The person who destroyed his Dao river undoubtedly wasn't doing it to save this Vast Tree, but selfishly intended to replace him.
