Post-Mythical Era: I don't want to die in the third reincarnation-Chapter 1206 - 1199: Sword Heaven Has Arrived
Qi Qitang laughed heartily, "Brother Che, you handle the task first. In the end, just hand this kid over to me."
From the change in Qi Qitang's address to Che Bu, others knew that as long as Che Bu didn't take Ding Huan away, everything was negotiable.
Obviously, what Qi Qitang wanted was Ding Huan's Great Dao Cosmic World.
If Ding Huan really had been beyond the Nine Abysses, then Ding Huan's world would definitely have a bunch of things he needed.
If Ding Huan had not been beyond the Nine Abysses, then even better.
Che Bu did not deploy his Domain to lock the space, and Ding Huan wasn't in a hurry to leave.
Based on the information he received, Che Bu was the most reasonable among the five ancestors, otherwise, he couldn't have come forward to help seal the Eightfold Expanse Canyon for the First Universe.
"Mr. Ding, have you previously met my dao companion?"
As soon as Che Bu said this, Ding Huan knew Che Bu had come for Zhi Fu, to stand up for her.
The two indeed met.
Wasn't it said that Zhi Fu didn't care for Che Bu, that they had already split? How did Che Bu know about this so quickly?
The two must be in constant communication.
Otherwise, why did Zhi Fu say she could make Che Bu Ye Xuan's master at that time?
"Who is your dao companion?" Ding Huan asked casually.
"Her name is Zhi Fu. I'm here today not to hold you accountable. Your friend took something from my dao companion; just return it to her.
Zhi Fu has always been somewhat capricious in her words and actions. If she said anything inappropriate, I'm willing to apologize on her behalf. As for the misunderstanding between you and Brother Qi, I can also help clarify it if needed."
Che Bu's tone was gentle, lacking any hint of murderous intent.
Moreover, Che Bu's tone seemed to convey that he didn't see himself as powerful.
It was as if he was saying you took a plastic bottle from my doorstep earlier, and I'm going to use it to buy soy sauce now, so please return it.
Ding Huan scoffed inwardly.
Rumors indeed are nonsense.
Ding Huan turned his gaze to Ji Yijian, who supposedly told him the tale.
He said Che Bu loved Zhi Fu immensely.
Meeting Che Bu and hearing his words, Ding Huan understood.
Che Bu probably had never truly loved Zhi Fu, and even Zhi Fu might be unaware.
This guy's disguise was impressive.
If not for the Vast Star Core, Ding Huan was almost certain Che Bu wouldn't come.
Che Bu's sole purpose for coming here was the Vast Treasures.
In the face of vast treasures, Zhi Fu meant nothing.
And Che Bu's timing of arrival was spot on.
He indirectly reminded Ding Huan that as long as Ding Huan handed over the item, he could help block Qi Qitang.
Though there was no threat in his tone, Ding Huan was sure that if he refused, Che Bu's domain would lock his escape route next moment.
Also, Che Bu's persona of being naive might be problematic.
Ding Huan frowned in thought, not speaking.
Something felt amiss.
Since Che Bu dared to say such words, he must be confident to intercept him before he could escape.
Whether Che Bu is a hypocrite, Ding Huan wasn't sure, but he was certain that Che Bu had likely made arrangements.
But what means would Che Bu use to intercept him?
What silent thing could lock this space without him perceiving it?
As Ding Huan accidentally glanced at Di Xin standing unobtrusively, he had a thought.
The Great Law Net?
Absolutely that thing.
The Great Law Net has nine clauses, with the first and ninth used when entering beyond the Nine Abysses.
If Che Bu used the Great Law Net to seal this space beforehand, it's indeed imperceptible.
Unless he ignored Qi Qitang's Tao Domain and forcibly used Divine Will to probe.
Qi Qitang would never allow him to use Divine Will for probing forcibly, and if Che Bu dared to deploy the Great Law Net, he must have a way to hide it.
Which clause of the Great Law Net Che Bu used remains unknown.
No matter which clause, as long as it could stall him for half a breath, he couldn't escape.
Ye Xuan sensed Ding Huan's hesitation.
He immediately transmitted to Ding Huan, "Brother Ding Huan, if there's no other way, just give the item to him, and let's leave."
Ding Huan shook his head.
Is this a matter of handing over the item?
If Che Bu were the kind of hypocrite he imagined, the moment he receives the Vast Star Core and the Vast Star Sword, he might just kill him and Ye Xuan.
As for Qi Qitang.
Ding Huan suspects Che Bu wouldn't accommodate him.
"Haha, using the second clause of the Great Law Net to lock this space, what, do you mean to use such a cheap tactic against my Sword Heaven brother?"
Sword Heaven's voice came, and Ding Huan was delighted.
With Sword Heaven, there's no issue now.
In the next moment, Sword Heaven's figure appeared in the Void.
As Sword Heaven's figure emerged, the second clause of the Great Law Net set by Che Bu also came into detection, and Ding Huan's Divine Will had already probed.
This thing indeed wasn't anything good.
If any of the Vast Five Ancestors were easy to associate with, they wouldn't have become the Five Ancestors.
Even Sword Heaven, under that long sword, countless souls perished.
In Sword Heaven's eyes, anything obstructing his Great Dao had only one path, death.
He became friends with Ding Huan, firstly because without Ding Huan, he would never have escaped Wu Dao's control. Ding Huan's help was not just a life-saving grace to him.
Secondly, Ding Huan had no conflict with him in the Great Dao and even assisted him in it.
Of course, more importantly, throughout countless years of seeking the Dao, Jian Tian's Dao Heart had changed, no longer being the entity believing only in killing as the sole truth.
Perhaps he understood that the Sword Dao is not the Path of Killing.
"Jian Tian?"
Qi Qitang's face changed sharply, and he immediately frowned.
At that moment, he completely believed the truth that Ding Huan had been beyond the Nine Gates.
More importantly, he saw the second principle of the Great Dao Web.
Even Qi Qitang had not expected that Che Bu, this seemingly unremarkable guy, managed to obtain the second principle of the Great Dao Web.
However, with people having gone beyond the Nine Gates, the Great Dao Web was no longer of much use to him.
Che Bu's expression didn't change at all. He acted as if nothing had happened, raising his hand to retract the second principle of the Great Dao Web.
Even if Jian Tian came here, his Great Dao Web wouldn't be of much use, even if he teamed up with Qi Qitang.
"I didn't expect Mr. Ding and Brother Jian Tian to be friends. That was my mistake. I apologize to these two Daoists."
Che Bu smiled gently, his tone becoming increasingly warm and friendly.
Ding Huan sighed inwardly.
This guy is truly extraordinary. Not to mention feeling awkward, he probably didn't even have a thought of embarrassment.
"Jian Tian, Ding Huan seized Di Xin's possessions and severely injured Di Xin.
We are also Dao Spirits after all; this kind of insult to Dao Spirits, I, Qi Qitang, could ignore if I didn't see it. But since we encountered it, I naturally can't sit idle."
He couldn't obtain the Great Dao Web. With Jian Tian here, unless he and Che Bu joined forces to take down Jian Tian, it was unrealistic to take Ding Huan away right in front of Jian Tian.
Knowing well that Ding Huan had great secrets, unfortunately, he couldn't make a move.
Given Jian Tian's combat strength, although he couldn't do much to him, he certainly wouldn't fear him.
Qi Qitang knew Che Bu's nature well. If he fought with Jian Tian, Che Bu wouldn't lend him a hand.
In that case, why bother fighting Jian Tian here?
No, considering Che Bu's character, it's impossible for him to expose his plan just for a Magical Treasure.
Che Bu having the second principle of the Great Dao Web clearly showed he also wanted to venture beyond the Nine Gates.
Now that the area beyond the Nine Gates had been destroyed, he finally exposed his ownership of the Great Dao Web.
"Brother Che, you mentioned earlier that Ding Huan took something of your Dao companion's. What did he take?"
Qi Qitang suddenly asked. As long as Che Bu was willing to team up with him, they could still successfully take down Ding Huan today.
Che Bu chuckled: "It's something of little value, just a Magical Treasure my Dao companion liked.
Since Brother Jian Tian arrived, and Mr. Ding is Brother Jian Tian's friend, I naturally cannot make Brother Jian Tian uneasy over a single Magical Treasure.
Brother Qi, Brother Jian Tian, I'll take my leave now."
After saying this, Che Bu's figure flickered and disappeared instantly from where he stood.
Ding Huan looked at the place where Che Bu disappeared, being fully aware of this guy's thoughts.
Ye Xuan's vast Treasure had already caught this guy's interest, and he didn't want to team up with Qi Qitang so Qi Qitang wouldn't discover the existence of the vast Treasure.
With Che Bu gone, Qi Qitang knew he no longer had any hope of keeping Ding Huan.
If he couldn't kill Jian Tian, fighting Jian Tian now would be meaningless.
He summoned his Flying Treasure, not even bothering to say a word, ready to leave.
"Qi Qitang, was it you who destroyed Shen Dai's cave mansion? Was Shen Dai killed by you? And was it you who captured my disciple?"
Hearing Ding Huan's question, Qi Qitang sneered at Ding Huan: "You have the nerve to question me?"
After speaking, he swept up Di Xin and boarded his Flying Treasure, disappearing in the next moment.
Ji Yijian and Shang were not taken away, and they remained, feeling quite awkward.
Both could only bow respectfully to Jian Tian.
Living in the First Universe, their fear and respect towards the vast Five Ancestors were ingrained deeply in their bones.
Jian Tian ignored both of them.
While he couldn't hinder Qi Qitang from leaving, he too couldn't stop him.
Ji Yijian cautiously spoke: "Brother Ding, I was truly forced into helplessness. You know my strength is considered less than an ant before the Five Ancestors."
Ding Huan said flatly: "You broke your own oath, that has nothing to do with me."
Seeing Ding Huan's gaze shift over, Shang quickly said: "Brother Ding, Shen Dai's cave mansion was destroyed by Di Xin. Shen Dai wasn't killed; he left early.
Your disciple was captured by Di Xin."
Shen Dai was able to leave early thanks to Shang.
Shang sensed something was off and left the First Universe immediately.
After leaving the First Universe, Shang felt something was wrong.
Though a Realm Lord in the First Universe, he thought that leaving it would only slow down his cultivation speed a bit.
After all, he had no chance of stepping onto the ninth step of the Great Dao.
But after leaving the First Universe, no matter how he secluded himself, his cultivation and comprehension not only didn't increase, but decreased.
This was definitely not a problem with the Heaven and Earth Rules or the Cosmic Origin Principle; it was very likely an issue with the Daos of them, the Realm Lords.
He couldn't possibly be the only one.
Returning to the First Universe, before he could investigate where his problem lay, he was captured by Qi Qitang.
He could only help Qi Qitang lure Ding Huan out.
To assist Qi Qitang, he proactively offered advice.
To catch Ding Huan, they couldn't actively send information to him, because Ding Huan was very cautious and alert.
They could only wait for Ding Huan to send a message to him before setting a trap.
In fact, he successfully lured Ding Huan to the Shifang Universe City.
(Good night, fellow Daoist!)
