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

Chapter 889 - 882: The Fall of the Ten Thousand Dao Mountain Range

None of the three Taoist Ancestors dared to oppose Mr. Ding's words, even if they had objections.

"Thank you, Mr. Ding, we've been discussing this matter among ourselves, but it's only because Qingsha Taoist Ancestor and Zihe are too timid, causing no progress."

Fengyu Daoist Ancestor was the first to speak in agreement.

Feng Pu and Yiqi Taoist Ancestor looked at Fengyu Daoist Ancestor with disdain:

"The truly timid one is you, Zhu Qingfeng! How dare you accuse others of being timid? It's utterly shameless."

Regardless of Fengyu Daoist Ancestor's thick skin, both Feng Pu and Yiqi Taoist Ancestor agreed with Mr. Ding's proposal.

Ding Huan looked at the Sword Gorge he had cleaved with a single strike and felt somewhat helpless.

Had he known he would have to negotiate with a few Taoist Ancestors here, he would have destroyed the Protecting Array and the gate of the Daoist Lord Mansion instead.

Now, with Ten Thousand Dao City split in half, there wasn't even a suitable place for discussion.

Yiqi Taoist Ancestor noticed Ding Huan's frustration and quickly suggested, "I have a Ten Thousand Dao Trading Building here in Great Yi World, why don't we head there for our discussions?"

Ding Huan had no objections. Fresh chapters posted on novel_fіre.net

…

In the Guest Hall of the Ten Thousand Dao Trading Building.

At this moment, there were only six people and a pig seated here.

Ding Huan, Ling Zhuzhen, Jia Baihe along with Yi Jie.

Additionally, there were Yiqi Taoist Ancestor from Great Yi World, Zhu Qingfeng from Fengyu World, and Feng Pu from Tianzi World.

As for Yan Zhuo, he was currently comforting his daughter Yan Jiuyue, and didn't come.

However, no one paid much attention to Yan Zhuo's absence.

Although Yan Zhuo is at the Fifth Step of the Great Path.

His Fifth Step is far too different from Ling Zhuzhen's Fifth Step, completely not on the same level, so whether he comes or not, it doesn't matter.

Ding Huan got straight to the point, "Feng Pu Taoist Ancestor, could you explain the situation first?"

Feng Pu stood up, first performed a Taoist Ancestor's salute, then said solemnly, "If it weren't for Zihe and Qingsha being too selfish, the Great Universe wouldn't have fallen to this extent..."

There was another name he didn't mention, and that was Fengyu Daoist Ancestor.

That fellow is just as detestable.

But since he's sitting here, it's truly hard to confront him face to face.

Ling Zhuzhen has fought against the Tian Meng Clan, and he has witnessed their cruelty and fearsome nature.

Upon hearing Feng Pu's words, he immediately became concerned and asked, "Fellow Daoist Feng Pu, has the Tian Meng Clan invaded the Great Universe?"

Feng Pu sighed, "Although they haven't fully invaded yet, both Yiqi Taoist Ancestor and I know it's only a matter of time.

I estimate that within a year or two, they will definitely launch an all-out attack to take over the Ten Thousand Dao Mountain Range.

Back in the day, when we defended the Ten Thousand Dao Abyss, we decided to use it as a bottom line, not allowing a single member of the Tian Meng Clan to break through.

But in that battle, Yiqi Taoist Ancestor and I gave it our all, and countless Eternal Saints from the Great Universe fell in that fight.

However, Zihe and Qingsha were hiding behind, keen on drawing the Dao Veins without daring to step forward. Both Yiqi Taoist Ancestor and I were severely injured and remain unhealed to this day...

It was also because of that battle that the Tian Meng Clan seized the Ten Thousand Dao Abyss. The Great Universe Human Clan Cultivators had to retreat, and later, we had to rely on a Magical Treasure to construct a defensive line with a Protecting Array.

But that's far, far inferior compared to the Ten Thousand Dao Abyss. Not only do we have to invest more people, we also face constant threats."

Ding Huan knew about the Ten Thousand Dao Abyss; it is the Boundary between the Tian Meng Clan and the Human Tribe.

If the Tian Meng Clan wants to occupy the Human Tribe's land and seize the Ten Thousand Dao Mountain Range, they must break through the Ten Thousand Dao Abyss.

Likewise, for the Human Tribe to enter the Tian Meng Clan's territory, they must cross the Ten Thousand Dao Abyss.

Logically speaking, the Ten Thousand Dao Abyss is the most crucial frontline of the Great Universe, bar none.

Qingsha and Zihe, these two fellows, as Taoist Ancestors, not only refrained from participating in the fight for the Ten Thousand Dao Abyss, they even drew from the Dao Veins to hinder us; they should have been dealt with sooner.

Just from Feng Pu's tone and disdainful gaze, Ding Huan could tell that besides Zihe and Qingsha, the Fengyu Daoist Ancestor before him was also among those who didn't dare to fight.

However, Fengyu Daoist Ancestor was incredibly resilient and had strong survival skills.

Otherwise, Ding Huan would have already struck him down at the Daoist Lord Mansion.

Just as Ding Huan was about to find an excuse to teach this Fengyu Daoist Ancestor a lesson, the fellow unexpectedly stood up voluntarily:

"Feng Pu Taoist Ancestor, I bear significant responsibility for this matter too. At that time, I was truly afraid, so I dared not confront the Tian Meng Clan's strongmen.

If we are to fight the Tian Meng Clan Cultivators this time, I am willing to lead the charge. If I take a step back, feel free to strike me in the back, and I will bear no resentment."

His tone was firm and forceful, exuding a fearlessly forward momentum.

Ding Huan couldn't help but admire.

Knowing full well this fellow was lying, he was helpless at the moment.

His survival skills were indeed formidable.

But when it comes time to fight the Tian Meng Clan, if this fellow dares to retreat, Ding Huan would indeed strike down.

He was not like Feng Pu and Yiqi Taoist Ancestor.

"Mr. Ding, now the Tian Meng Clan almost occupies more than half of the Ten Thousand Dao Mountain Range. Although they haven't yet dispatched the strongmen..."

Before Feng Pu could finish speaking, a blood-soaked figure burst in: "Yiqi Taoist Ancestor, the Tian Meng Clan's army has broken through the final Protecting Array of the Human Clan Cultivators in the Ten Thousand Dao Mountain Range.

"They slaughtered innumerable Human Clan Cultivators, and now the entire Ten Thousand Dao Mountain Range has been occupied by the Tian Meng Clan..."

Several Taoist Ancestors stood up in panic.

They were different from Ding Huan; they were Taoist Ancestors of their own worlds. Once the Tian Meng Clan swept through the Great Universe, their worlds would belong to the Tian Meng Clan as well.

No one in their worlds would survive.

Ding Huan smiled and said, "Mr. Ju Jun, long time no see."

The blood-covered cultivator who arrived was someone he recognized; it was Ju Jun, whom he had met when he had just exited seclusion.

It was Ju Jun who had guided him to find Yu Xing and rescue Yan Zhuo.

"Mr. Ding..." Ju Jun stared at Ding Huan in a daze.

After guiding Ding Huan, it wasn't long before he encountered the Tian Meng Clan's full-scale invasion of the Ten Thousand Dao Mountain Range.

After an intense life-and-death battle, he was able to use a Teleportation Talisman to return to the Ten Thousand Dao City.

Seeing the ruins of the Ten Thousand Dao City, he thought the Tian Meng Clan had attacked here.

Upon inquiry, he learned that powerful figures had come and fought against several Taoist Ancestors.

After hearing that several Taoist Ancestors were in the Trading Building discussing matters, he immediately came to report the full-scale invasion of the Ten Thousand Dao Mountain Range by the Tian Meng Clan to Yiqi Taoist Ancestor.

As for Ding Huan killing the two Taoist Ancestors Zihe and Qingsha, he truly did not know.

Ding Huan nodded to Ju Jun, then turned his gaze to Taoist Ancestors Feng Pu, Feng Yu, and Yi Qi:

"What I find strange is that the Tian Meng Clan's full-scale invasion, and the defense line of the Human Tribe in the Ten Thousand Dao Mountain Range was constructed by you. How is it that you couldn't receive the news first-hand and instead needed Mr. Ju to report it?"

Feng Pu smiled wryly, "Both Yi Qi and I are seriously injured, so all matters of the Ten Thousand Dao Mountain Range were first reported to Qingsha and Zihe...

And then Qingsha and Zihe would inform us and decide how to respond.

However, there are people from my Tianzi World in the Ten Thousand Dao Mountain Range. If I'm not mistaken, those who I could directly contact must be in danger; otherwise, it's impossible for me not to receive information."

Yi Qi remained silent; clearly, his situation was the same as Feng Pu.

They had no way to protest, as that woman Qingsha was ruthless and would definitely not show mercy just because they are Taoist Ancestors.

Their biggest regret was that, in their effort against the Tian Meng Clan, they exerted all their strength and were eventually severely injured by a Tian Meng Clan strongman.

Ding Huan's gaze turned to Feng Yu.

Feeling Ding Huan's gaze filled with murderous intent, Daoist Feng Yu shivered and quickly said:

"At that time, Qingsha and Zihe indeed intended to let me also manage a part of the Great Universe Cultivators to fight against the Tian Meng Clan.

But I felt inadequate, and voluntarily handed this authority over to Qingsha Taoist Ancestor..."

Hearing this, even Ding Huan felt emotional. This Fengyu Daoist Ancestor's survival instinct was indeed strong.

On the surface, he wasn't responsible for these matters, but in reality, if anything went wrong with the Ten Thousand Dao Mountain Range, it was unrelated to him.

Now, he was using his cunning.

"Fengyu Daoist Ancestor, I have a task for you. Immediately, with Mr. Ju, go outside of Ten Thousand Dao City to organize all the retreating Human Clan Cultivators.

Then build a Protecting Array in the Ten Thousand Dao City to keep the Tian Meng Clan Cultivators outside of the city; can it be done?"

Ding Huan spoke without any politeness.

Feng Yu immediately stood up and saluted Ding Huan, "Don't worry, Mr. Ding, even if I, Zhu Qingfeng, lose my life outside Ten Thousand Dao City, I will complete this task."

After speaking, Feng Yu turned and left with a sense of unyielding determination.

Ding Huan felt deeply moved.

Feng Yu definitely knew that he wanted to kill him, but did things with decisiveness.

It could be said that this guy's sensitivity to his own life was truly exceptional.

Ding Huan didn't even need to think; he could know that this guy would definitely make the Protecting Array outside Ten Thousand Dao City solid like steel.

Moreover, this guy for the sake of preserving his life, would not care about any external factors at all.

Otherwise, a Taoist Ancestor would bend and bow to him, and call him brother?

It could be said that this Zhu Qingfeng had no bottom line...

No, it should be said that when it comes to matters concerning his own life, he has no bottom line.

"Alas, if it weren't for these guys' fear of death back then, how could Ten Thousand Dao Abyss have been lost?" Seeing Feng Yu Daoist Ancestor's appearance, Feng Pu remarked with a sigh and shook his head.

Ling Zhuzhen suddenly spoke up, "In fact, even though they were greedy and afraid of death, and actively abandoned the Ten Thousand Dao Abyss, this is not entirely bad for all of you."

Hearing this, both Feng Pu and Yi Qi Daoist Ancestor looked at Ling Zhuzhen in shock. What did he mean by this?

Only Ding Huan nodded, sensing that Ling Zhuzhen's words were truthful.

"Mr. Ling, I seek your guidance." Yi Qi stood up and respectfully said.

Ling Zhuzhen calmly stated, "Taoist Ancestor Feng Pu, Taoist Ancestor Yi Qi, both of you are at the Seventh Step of the Great Dao. Be honest with yourselves, have you truly comprehended the Seventh Step of the Great Dao?"

What did he mean?

Feng Pu and Yi Qi looked at each other in confusion.

You, Ling Zhuzhen, have great strength, can match the Seventh Step of the Great Dao with the Fifth Step, but you can't say our Seventh Step of the Great Dao is weaker, right?

Ling Zhuzhen continued leisurely, "Before the Great Universe Calamity, I was also a Taoist Ancestor, at the Eighth Step of the Great Dao..."
