Post-Mythical Era: I don't want to die in the third reincarnation-Chapter 1203 - 1196: The Disciple Has an Issue

On their way to the First Cosmos, Ding Huan and Ye Xuan shared their experiences over the years.

Only then did Ding Huan realize that Ye Xuan took just ten thousand years to restore his Tao Foundation.

The rest of the time, Ye Xuan devoted entirely to comprehending his own Sword Dao.

The reason Ye Xuan made this choice was partly due to witnessing the strength of Ding Huan, Mo Wuji, and Lan Xiaobu's own Great Dao, and partly because he was greatly harmed by the Slave Dao Sword.

For Ye Xuan, if he hadn't met Ding Huan, Mo Wuji, and Lan Xiaobu,

he might now be a Sword Carrying Slave for Tidor, always ready to sacrifice his life for Tidor's Sword Dao.

Therefore, after Slaying Dao, Ye Xuan decided to align himself with Ding Huan, Mo Wuji, and Lan Xiaobu, creating a Sword Dao independent of his existing cosmos.

To stand at the pinnacle of the vastness, his Sword Dao couldn't rely on the Source Principle of the vastness.

He had experienced the vast Sword Dao and often discussed the Dao with Ding Huan and the others, gaining a much deeper understanding of his own Great Dao than ordinary cultivators.

Moreover, Ye Xuan's innate talent was no less than that of Ding Huan, Mo Wuji, or Lan Xiaobu.

It took him seventy thousand years to construct his own Sword Dao.

Then, by utilizing his own Sword Dao, he perfected his Tao Universe World.

This was exactly the opposite of the approach taken by Ding Huan, Mo Wuji, and Lan Xiaobu.

In the Great Dao system of Ding Huan and the others, no matter how strong the Sword Dao was, it was merely a type of Divine Skill.

The Taoist Divine Powers they created all evolved after their own Tao Universe Worlds were perfected.

Much like the Time Blade River that Ding Huan recently comprehended.

This was because Ding Huan's Tao Universe World was very well perfected, and his own Time Source Principle was sufficiently perfect, allowing him to create his own Time Blade River by borrowing from the River of Time of the Eternal God Saint.

After perfecting his Sword Dao, Ye Xuan once again stepped into the eighth step of the Great Dao.

Because the principles of his cosmic world were almost entirely sourced from his Sword Dao principles, and because Ye Xuan had visited the First Cosmos, he had no need to go to the First Cosmos to step into the eighth step of the Great Dao.

For him, as long as there were enough Cosmic Origin Veins, he could step into the eighth step of the Great Dao anywhere.

Although Ye Xuan suffered due to the Slave Dao Sword, he still had plenty of Cosmic Origin Veins, allowing him to effortlessly step into the eighth step of the Great Dao.

However, Ye Xuan did not comprehend the Source Principle of the vastness or the process of its formation and initial division.

Although he stepped into the eighth step of the Great Dao, in terms of strength, he was still far behind.

Upon stepping into the eighth step of the Great Dao, when Ye Xuan was about to go to the First Cosmos to find Ding Huan and the others, he sensed the vast aura deep in the Endless Void.

Searching all the way, he finally discovered the vast Star Core and vast Star Sword.

Excited by acquiring such a Supreme Treasure as the vast Star Sword, Ye Xuan couldn't resist using the Sword Dao Divine Power he comprehended, before he began refining the vast Star Core.

Unluckily, Zhi Fu sensed Ye Xuan displaying his divine power with the vast Star Sword.

When Zhi Fu arrived at the Endless Void, Ye Xuan had just refined the first layer of restriction on the vast Star Core.

Fortunately, Ye Xuan had been through many experiences and, having remodeled his Great Dao, was very sensitive to personal crises.

He immediately sensed Zhi Fu's murderous intent, and borrowed the vast Star Core to escape.

This led to Zhi Fu's relentless pursuit of Ye Xuan.

"I never expected that beneath the Endless Void, there would be treasures like the vast Star Core and vast Star Sword. It seems the Fog Realm isn't as simple as we thought," Ding Huan couldn't help but sigh.

"I suspect there's more down there, but I was being pursued by that woman and didn't have the time to check. Ding Huan, should we go take a look now?"

Ding Huan shook his head, "Though the Endless Void is where the Fog Realm is located, this place is probably not simple. Even if the Three Daos went to the Endless Void, their Divine Will couldn't cover the entire Nihility Space.

Hidden deep in the Endless Void are vast Supreme Treasures. I find it hard to believe there are no vast powerhouses inside.

If there are vast powerhouses inside, wouldn't we be walking into a trap if we went? Let's wait until we're stronger before going."

Ding Huan decided to enter the ninth step of the vast Great Dao at the Eightfold Expanse Canyon before going to the Endless Void.

"Alright, I feel that if I can touch the initial Source Principle of the vastness, perhaps my Sword Dao will advance further, at least so I won't fear that woman."

Ding Huan chuckled, "Don't worry, you will definitely step into the true ninth step of the Great Dao. As for that woman, if you set her as your goal, your future achievements will be very limited.

Once we all step into the ninth step, our target will be the vast Five Ancestors, and beings like Wu Dao."

Ye Xuan nodded silently.

Though he agreed with Ding Huan, he wasn't sure if they could stand up against Wu Dao after stepping into the ninth step of the Great Dao.

Zhi Fu, Che Bu's Dao companion, could absolutely crush him, and even Ding Huan might not be a match.

Yet compared to the vast Five Ancestors, Zhi Fu's strength was likely far inferior.

The strength of the vast Five Ancestors was another level below that of the Three Daos.

Wu Dao is one of the Three Daos; can they really take on Wu Dao after stepping into the ninth step of the Great Dao?

Regardless of whether they could handle Wu Dao after stepping into the ninth step, along the way, Ye Xuan kept listening to Ding Huan's discourse on the Dao.

Because Ye Xuan had never been beyond the Nine Gaos, Ding Huan spared no effort in explaining to him the process of the vastness's formation and initial division.

Ding Huan's discourses on the Dao were simulations of the process of the vastness's initial division in the form of Source Principle Dao Rhythms.

To Ye Xuan, it was extremely precious.

In fact, for anyone, these are the most valuable insights into the vast Great Dao.

Compared to Zhi Fu's proposition that Ye Xuan become Che Bu's disciple, Ding Huan's discourse on the Dao was supreme.

Without reservation, Ding Huan taught, and with Ye Xuan's astonishing talent, his Sword Dao and Great Dao's advancement was remarkably rapid.

Since Mo Wuji and Lan Xiaobu hadn't sent any information, Ding Huan didn't hasten their journey with the Cosmic Pot.

It would take time to discuss the Dao with Ye Xuan, so Ding Huan decided not to return to Blue Star Island, and instead sent a message to Qu Yi.

Qu Yi was very happy to receive Ding Huan's message and responded promptly.

She informed Ding Huan that all was well on Blue Star Island, Ku Ya had also arrived in the World of Gods and had advanced to the sixth step of the Great Dao.

In order to find him, Ku Ya had entered the First Universe from the Cosmic Vortex at the center of the World of Gods.

Ding Huan frowned slightly.

The First Universe is vast and boundless, and there is only one Tao City. Back then, he hadn't found Jia Baihe either.

If Ku Ya at her current level of cultivation went to the First Universe to find him, the difficulty without anyone's help would be as great as searching for a needle in Ninefold Vastness.

Ding Huan also understood why Ku Ya was eager to find him.

Ku Ya cultivated the Great Universe Technique, and having now reached the sixth step of the Great Dao, she likely couldn't advance further.

But right now, urgency wouldn't help, better to enhance Ye Xuan's Sword Dao first.

As long as Ye Xuan steps into the ninth step of the Great Dao, he wouldn't be weaker than the Five Ancestors.

In the future, the people they would have to deal with are likely not only the Three Paths of the Five Ancestors. Beneath the vastness, who knows how many powerful beings have hidden themselves.

Their absence doesn't mean they don't exist.

Two hundred years later, Ding Huan controlled the Cosmic Pot and charged into Shen Dai's territory in the First Universe.

"Haha, who would've thought that after more than ten thousand years, we could return here together again." Ye Xuan said spiritedly.

Two hundred years of discussing the Dao, Ye Xuan's Sword Dao had surged.

What Ye Xuan lacked was merely an opportunity.

Once he seized this opportunity to step into the ninth step of the Great Dao, his strength would undergo a qualitative change.

"There's something wrong here..."

Ding Huan controlled the Cosmic Pot to stop outside Shen Dai's cave mansion, where there was no Daoist Rhythm nor Cosmic Origin Veins aura.

Because the cave mansion restriction was intact, Ding Huan could only knock on the restriction.

But no one responded. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

He sent another message to Shen Dai, still no response.

Ding Huan directly opened the restriction outside Shen Dai's cave mansion, facing remnants and ruins.

Even more deteriorated than when he fought Dou Ling here.

When Shen Dai had returned back then, he had already rebuilt the mansion.

Now that such a scene reappeared, it indicated someone had entered Shen Dai's cave mansion again.

To devastate Shen Dai's cave mansion like this, Shen Dai was likely in grave danger.

Yet the restriction outside Shen Dai's cave mansion remained intact, indicating the person might be familiar with Shen Dai.

Ding Huan frowned and pondered, Shen Dai was with Shang.

As for Shen Dai's strength, it was negligible; however, Shang was no simple person, his strength formidable.

It appeared the First Universe was becoming increasingly chaotic.

Shen Dai was at least a Realm Lord, yet his cave mansion was destroyed, and Mo Yuantian didn't care?

"Realm Lord Shen Dai seems to have met a grim fate," Ye Xuan remarked.

Ding Huan took out a Communication Bead and sent a message to both Mo Wuji and Lan Xiaobu, but received no reply.

Perhaps they hadn't yet escaped the misaligned space of Source Principle.

Ding Huan sent another message to Sword Heaven, but still no response.

Recalling that Shen Dai was with Shang, Ding Huan sent Shang a message as well.

To Ding Huan's surprise, Shang replied and informed him that his disciple had matters in Shifang Universe City.

His disciple?

Ding Huan immediately thought of Ku Ya.

"Let's go to Shifang Universe City now."

Just as Ding Huan was about to control the Cosmic Pot to head to Shifang Universe City, Shang sent him another message.

Shang told Ding Huan to go to his cave mansion, where there was a Teleportation Array Group, including one directly to Shifang Universe City.

Ding Huan also felt sentimental.

In the First Universe, Shifang Universe City was a place where the most basic cultivator students lived.

As the Realm Lord of the First Universe, even the Ninth Realm Lord Shen Dai was a prestigious existence in Shifang Universe City.

Shang was the Fifth Realm Lord, and his status was not ordinary.

It was rare for someone of such stature to frequent a corner like Shifang Universe City.

Unexpectedly, Shang had built a teleportation array to Shifang Universe City within his own cave mansion, showing he often visited there.

Although Shang's cave mansion was not close to Shen Dai's, with the speed of the Cosmic Pot, it was only a matter of hours.

Originally, Ding Huan had thought Shang was at the First Universe's center, and entering Shang's cave mansion would surely be blocked.

To his surprise, he saw no one along the way.

Even when his Divine Will openly scanned the other Realm Lords' cave mansions, no one stepped out to utter a single word.

(Good night, fellow Daoist!)
