Chapter 887 - 880: Thank You
Although Ding Huan didn't have any top-grade Dao Veins, he managed to take away ten top-grade Dao Veins, five mid-grade Dao Veins, and six low-grade Dao Veins from Jie Gun's world.
Judging by the Primordial Energy fluctuations of these Dao Veins, Ding Huan was certain that none of these Dao Veins belonged to Ling Zhuzhen; they were all extracted from the Ten Thousand Dao Mountain Range.
Ling Zhuzhen's Dao Veins must have been used up by this fellow, Jie Gun, long ago.
This guy is really worthless, using so many of Ling Zhuzhen's Dao Veins and yet failing to even advance to the Seventh Step of the Great Dao.
At the same time, it also shows how well Qingsha Taoist Ancestor treats her lover.
Her lover has dozens of Dao Veins, while Jie Gun, a Taoist Ancestor, only has twenty-one.
Not only that, but this woman even lets her lover freely prosper in the Ten Thousand Dao Mountain Range.
She must be emboldened by seeing the injuries of Tianzi Taoist Ancestor Feng Pu and Yiqi Taoist Ancestor, and knowing that Fengyu Taoist Ancestor is a coward, so she dares to let her paramour profit wantonly.
Otherwise, Feng Pu and Yiqi Taoist Ancestor would never agree.
Seeing Ding Huan incinerate Jie Gun with a flame, Feng Pu Taoist Ancestor, who was initially going to approach and speak to Ding Huan, hesitated and didn't step forward.
This Ding Huan not only has deep scheming but also terrifying methods to the extreme.
His formerly innocent and selfless demeanor had even deceived me.
No matter what, Jie Gun was a Taoist Ancestor, yet Ding Huan easily eliminated a Sixth Step Taoist Ancestor and tore open his world, taking everything inside.
It was almost terrifyingly brutal.
For an Eternal Saint, being killed is not the most terrifying thing; the most terrifying thing is having one's own Great Dao World opened before being killed.
Feng Pu sighed inwardly, wondering if Ding Huan could remember that I had helped him out once before.
Ding Huan didn't look at Feng Pu and the others, instead focusing on the fighting between Ling Zhuzhen and Qingsha Taoist Ancestor.
Seeing these two fighting, Ding Huan believed Ling Zhuzhen's words.
Qingsha Taoist Ancestor's Seventh Step was indeed somewhat lacking.
Her Dao had not transcended the boundaries of the Sixth Step of the Great Dao.
In other words, her strength would not be much stronger than Jie Gun's.
No wonder Jie Gun, a Sixth Step of the Great Dao, could become a Taoist Ancestor; his Dao was indeed somewhat stronger than the other Taoist Ancestors.
Thinking this in his heart, Ding Huan didn't think Ling Zhuzhen couldn't handle Qingsha Taoist Ancestor.
Ding Huan really didn't take Qingsha Taoist Ancestor seriously.
Now, Ling Zhuzhen's Breaking Domain Banner was indeed gaining the upper hand, nearly locking the battle space with its domain.
And Qingsha Taoist Ancestor's Chaos Banner seemed only able to barely support a space for self-protection; it was only a matter of time before Ling Zhuzhen defeated her...
The momentum of Ling Zhuzhen's Breaking Domain Banner was still crazily surging, always on the cusp of tearing open the space supported by Qingsha Taoist Ancestor's Chaos Banner.
Once Qingsha Taoist Ancestor's Chaos Banner domain space is torn open, Qingsha Taoist Ancestor will be completely suppressed by Ling Zhuzhen.
Ding Huan was about to say something when he suddenly felt something was off.
This is not right.
Ling Zhuzhen clearly held the advantage, so why was it necessary to madly enhance the momentum of his Breaking Domain Banner's domain?
He could just use kill Divine Skills now.
There's no way a seasoned veteran like Ling Zhuzhen wouldn't understand this.
If this went on, Ling Zhuzhen himself would become passive.
Ding Huan immediately understood.
The reason Ling Zhuzhen kept driving the momentum of his Breaking Domain Banner's Magic Treasure Domain was that he could only do so.
If Ling Zhuzhen stopped, the next moment he would be locked by Qingsha Taoist Ancestor's Chaos Banner, and both he and the banner would be swept away.
Ling Zhuzhen was constantly layering his Magic Treasure Domain's Daoist Rhythm to counter the Chaos Banner's attempt to sweep it away.
Meanwhile, Qingsha Taoist Ancestor maintained control of her space domain created by her Chaos Banner at a leisurely pace, letting Ling Zhuzhen expend himself desperately.
For Qingsha Taoist Ancestor's methods, this hardly required any effort.
Moreover, it seemed that the level of the Chaos Banner was superior to the Breaking Domain Banner.
This woman, Qingsha, somehow acquired a magical treasure of this level.
If this situation continued, Ling Zhuzhen definitely wouldn't last long.
As soon as Qingsha Taoist Ancestor locked onto Ling Zhuzhen, she could just escape, and no one could catch her.
Lao Ling was really caught off guard here.
A seasoned veteran caught by a naive greenhorn.
Cultivation level was one thing, but more importantly, Ling Zhuzhen underestimated Qingsha Taoist Ancestor.
Ding Huan did not continue watching the battle and, without hesitation, summoned the Dusk Drum.
Boom!
As soon as the Dusk Drum was summoned, a booming drum sound exploded, like a sudden spring thunder, striking at everyone's heart.
Unlike others, Qingsha Taoist Ancestor was more deeply affected.
Because Ding Huan's Dusk Drum Dao Sound was aimed directly at her.
As soon as this drum sound echoed, others were just influenced, but it hammered deeply into the core of Qingsha Taoist Ancestor's soul.
Qingsha Taoist Ancestor quivered all over, frantically stirring her Tao Domain, trying to expel this invasive Dao Sound.
But the sound seemed entrenched in her very bones, utterly impossible to dispel.
Her heart turned cold; how did Ding Huan manage to tear open her Tao Domain with drum sound and let it affect her heart soul deeply?
Quickly, Qingsha Taoist Ancestor dismissed this thought, realizing she had to leave immediately.
Now she could still control her domain and actions.
If she ended up being passive, it would be the end...
Even though Ling Zhuzhen was suppressed by Qingsha Taoist Ancestor, he was still a seasoned veteran.
Previously, he madly increased his Breaking Domain Banner's domain momentum because he knew if he faltered for a moment, the Chaos Banner's space would completely lock him in.
Even amidst the confrontation, his heart was filled with endless emotion for those years spent in the chaos.
His Great Dao was indeed transformed by chaos; his understanding of chaos had also advanced by several levels.
Now his cultivation has fallen, but his understanding and mastery of the Chaos Law remain.
Otherwise, he would have long been trapped by the Chaos Law of the Chaos Banner's space, at its mercy, with no chance to constantly deploy the domain aura of the Breaking Domain Banner to resist.
At this moment, as Ding Huan's Dusk Drum suddenly resounded, the chaotic aura suppressed by Qingsha Taoist Ancestor fluctuated violently, how could Ling Zhuzhen not understand?
This was Ding Huan making his move.
With Ding Huan's move, Qingsha Taoist Ancestor felt fear and wanted to withdraw the Chaos Banner and flee in time.
Even if Ling Zhuzhen were worse, he was once also a Taoist Ancestor of the Eighth Step; if he couldn't even seize this battle opportunity, what face would he have to call Ding Huan brother?
Almost at the instant Qingsha Taoist Ancestor decided to withdraw the Chaos Banner, Ling Zhuzhen's Breaking Domain Banner aura surged.
In just an instant, it once again stalemated with the Chaos Banner.
Qingsha Taoist Ancestor's heart sank; how could she not know Ling Zhuzhen intended to keep her?
At this moment, she could still leave if she abandoned the Chaos Banner.
But the position of the Chaos Banner in her heart was no less than Zihe's place in Jie Gun's heart.
To abandon the Chaos Banner and flee would be no different than chopping off her hands and feet.
Qingsha Taoist Ancestor was about to desperately burn her Essence Blood and even her Great Dao to take the Chaos Banner away.
Dong! Dong! Dong!
Three drum sounds exploded consecutively, as if echoing across the vast cosmic void.
At this moment, everything quieted down. This content belongs to novelFirｅ.net
The frenzied aura of Qingsha Taoist Ancestor also calmed considerably in an instant.
Time seemed to rewind as she stopped cultivating and suddenly turned back at the Sect's entrance.
There stood a figure in green.
She didn't want to leave him; she had to leave him.
Because, deep within, beyond him, she harbored a desire to stand at the universe's pinnacle.
When she was young, her parents and sisters could reprimand her. As she grew, those schoolteachers could reprimand her too.
Later, she entered the Sect, where her master could reprimand her, elders could reprimand her, senior brothers and sisters with stronger cultivation could reprimand her, the Law Enforcement Hall could reprimand her...
She wanted to control her destiny, to make those hypocrites, claiming to be for her good, go away.
Eventually, she succeeded.
But it was far from enough; she also wanted to control the universe, control the vastness...
It seemed she was about to succeed too, but unfortunately, his green figure slowly faded.
After that, she had many men, one lover after another.
Yet no one could replace that figure in green in her heart…
Dong dong dong dong!
The drumbeat continued endlessly...
Qingsha Taoist Ancestor looked up, and she saw that tearful figure.
That figure stood on the shady forest path outside the Sect.
Though that figure didn't say a word, she understood he hoped she could stay, stay by his side.
A nameless emotion surged in her heart; Qingsha Taoist Ancestor shook her head, this was not what she wanted, he could not give her what she yearned for.
She suddenly turned away.
At that time, the autumn wind was clear, and the autumn moon was bright. The birds deep in the forest were startled awake by his call, yet she knew that once she left, meeting again would be uncertain.
Ling Zhuzhen, sensing the dazed Qingsha Taoist Ancestor, was shocked by the terrifying intent of Ding Huan's Dusk Drum and knew this was indeed the best time to kill Qingsha Taoist Ancestor.
The Breaking Domain Banner turned into a gray murderous Blade Light, shooting towards the brow of Qingsha Taoist Ancestor.
As Ling Zhuzhen made his move, Ding Huan rolled out endless Dao Rhythms with both hands, simultaneously striking the Dusk Drum!
Dong!
A heart-soul-shocking drumbeat surpassed all previous drum sounds, exploding.
Bleakness and despair filled this space.
Qingsha Taoist Ancestor was suddenly awake.
But the drum's Dao Rhythm locked her heart soul.
The Dusk Drum buries new souls and grinds bones, I entrust snow to the earthly world, and see, dusk is waning, and the drum is waning!
Dao Rhythms gently spread...
"Puh!"
A Blood Arrow exploded on her brow, yet she seemed oblivious, staring blankly at Ding Huan.
At this moment, she let the Dusk Drum's Dao Rhythm swirl around her, neither striving for the Chaos Banner nor thinking of immediate escape.
Perhaps she knew that being caught by Ding Huan's Dusk Drum Dao Rhythm meant having no chance to escape.
"Thank you..."
Ding Huan raised his hand and released several Space Law Dao Patterns, intending to tear open the Great Dao World of Qingsha Taoist Ancestor.
This woman's body surely contained a host of Dao Veins.
Hearing the words of thanks, Ding Huan was also a bit stunned.
Is this woman crazy? We teamed up to kill her, and she's thanking us?
"Thank you for helping me kill Yu Xing, otherwise, I would feel so dirty, I would feel I have let him down..."
From beginning to end, that Yu Xing was just a replacement for the green figure in her heart.
But a substitute is ultimately a substitute, not the green figure deep within her heart.
