Post-Mythical Era: I don't want to die in the third reincarnation-Chapter 432 - 425: Delivering Yourself to the Door

Upon hearing Ding Huan's words, Kulu blurted out:

"Why not? If we don't go to the Chaos Zone, where can we go? You probably don't realize how powerful a Star Lord is. If he truly intends to pursue us, we will have nowhere to hide in the Ancient Immortal Domain.

Going to the territories of other races is like seeking death. All things considered, we have only one path to take, which is to head to the Chaos Zone."

Ding Huan looked at Kulu with a very serious tone.

"If it were before, we could indeed go there. But if I'm not mistaken, the Star Lord should have reached the Desolate Lands of the Immortals by now and is very likely waiting just outside the Chaos Zone for us."

"What do you mean?" Kulu didn't quite understand Ding Huan's words.

After asking, he feared that Ding Huan wouldn't understand the importance of the negotiations between the Immortal Court and the Devil Court, so he added:

"Zhang San, my brother, a representative who negotiates on behalf of the Immortal Court, if they dare to leave without permission, it means severe punishment, and even a death sentence is possible. Therefore, before the Immortal-Demon negotiations are over, Du Yue Star Lord will not bother with Wu Jian."

Ding Huan spoke in a grave voice, "I suspect that Du Yue Star Lord is not after Wu Jian at all. What he cares about is the soil beneath Treasure Split Cliff.

Because someone went there a day after we left the ruins of Treasure Split Cliff, and I always thought it was Wu Jian's maid.

It just struck me now that it might have been Wu Jian's maid who went with a powerful being. If I'm not mistaken, there's more than a seventy percent chance that the powerful being was Du Yue Star Lord."

When Ding Huan had left the ruins of Treasure Split Cliff, he had deliberately spent time creating a bunch of law fluctuations in space to mislead any pursuers.

At the time, he didn't think much of it, believing that anyone who was an Immortal King or above could find the direction he took through the fluctuations of Dao Rhythm Law.

A day after he and Kulu had left, someone arrived at the location of the ruins of Treasure Split Cliff—places riddled with his setup of Dao Rhythm Law fluctuations—so he had sensed it as soon as someone approached.

The person who went to the ruins of Treasure Split Cliff made a judgment in the blink of an eye and then indeed followed the fluctuations of the Dao Rhythm Law he had set up.

It was entirely his own fault. He believed that just like him, any Immortal King could determine the location in an instant through the fluctuations of Dao Rhythm Law.

Now, having obtained the half of the Array Flag left behind by Shi Li, he felt that his guess might be wrong.

If Shi Li could sense the fluctuations of Dao Rhythm Law instantly like he could, then Shi Li would not have left his half Array Flag here, as that would be leaving a hidden danger.

He also recalled two Immortal Kings he had encountered before, from whom he had forcibly taken Kulu's soul token.

This showed that the capabilities of an Immortal King and their judgment of the fluctuations in the heaven and earth's Dao Rhythm Law were not that formidable.

It's true that he was a Golden Immortal, but not every Immortal King could grasp the fluctuations of Dao Rhythm Law as clearly as him, able to make instant judgments.

It was wrong to measure others by his own standard.

This meant that the person who pursued him to Treasure Split Cliff was not an Immortal King.

If not an Immortal King, it must have been an Immortal Emperor.

If it was an Immortal Emperor, who else could it be but Du Yue Star Lord?

What would Du Yue Immortal Emperor do after realizing he had pursued the wrong direction for a while?

The source of this c𝐨ntent is freeweɓnovēl.coɱ.

If he were Du Yue Immortal Emperor and discovered he had followed the wrong direction, he would never just turn back and continue the chase in another.

The only thing that could be corrected was to consider where the person he was pursuing might have gone.

He and Kulu were just ants, facing a big shot from the Immortal Court like Du Yue; where could they go?

There was only one answer, the Chaos Zone.

So all Du Yue Star Lord had to do was wait just outside the Chaos Zone for them to enter.

Even with his iron pot's speed, he could not possibly be faster than Du Yue Star Lord.

Du Yue Star Lord could even use a single Teleportation Talisman to instantly reach the outside of the Chaos Zone.

Kulu fell into silence, but after only a moment of hesitation, he looked resolutely at Ding Huan and said, "Zhang San, my brother, I'll listen to you. Wherever you say we should go, we'll go."

He could see that Ding Huan had a bit more experience in survival than himself.

"There's only one place that can shelter us now," said Ding Huan.

"Where?"

"The Immortal Court."

Kulu looked at Ding Huan in disbelief. Was this walking right into the lion's den?

Ding Huan explained, "Du Yue Star Lord is surely waiting outside the Chaos Zone right now. We must reach the Immortal Court as quickly as possible; every day we delay increases the danger.

You wouldn't think we'd willingly walk up to the Immortal Court, and neither would Du Yue Star Lord ever suspect it. By the time he realizes, we might already have a foothold there."

"I have a Teleportation Talisman that can take both of us to the Immortal Court. We can get to the outside of the Immortal Court, but entering the Immortal Court Protection Array is unlikely. Those arrays are Level 9 Peak Immortal Arrays, how could we enter?"

Hearing that Kulu could teleport them instantly to the Immortal Court, Ding Huan was overjoyed, "Tell me, what are the requirements to go to the Immortal Court?"

"Cultivators and officials who are already in the Heavenly Court can come and go as they please, or people like me who were recruited to the Immortal Court very early on," Kulu explained.

"Besides them, Immortal Sect Masters or emissaries from the major Immortal Sects—they all have the sect master's command token..."

"Just these?" Ding Huan frowned. If these were the only options, then it would be very difficult to get to the Immortal Court.

"Also, you could be someone from the Immortal Court Tian Gang list or, let's say, the Earth Evil list. The Tian Gang list refers to Daoist Skill methods. As long as you can enter the top thirty-six, then you can come and go from the Heavenly Court at will.

The Earth Evil list includes excellent talents in various fields such as pills, artifacts, talismans, arrays, cultivation, left-side arts, and refining. Being in the top seventy-two is enough."

The more Ding Huan heard, the more confused he became: "Does the Tian Gang list really not limit one's cultivation level? And is the Earth Evil list a single list, or are there multiple?"

Kulu chuckled, "The Tian Gang list has only one requirement: as long as you are strong enough, you can be placed on it. It doesn't matter whether you are an Immortal Emperor or an Earth Immortal, anyone can be on the list without considering their cultivation realm.

There are only seventy-two positions on the Earth Evil list. It doesn't differentiate between alchemists and artifact refiners; if you can make it into the top seventy-two, you can also be on the list. Currently, the first place on the Earth Evil list is an Immortal Pill Emperor, and the second place is an Immortal Artifact Emperor."

Ding Huan was quite helpless; such rankings, not divided by weight class or type, could only be looked at but not pursued.

"Right, there's another way to enter the Immortal Court."

Seeing Ding Huan distressed, Kulu seemed to remember something.

"Quick, tell me, what is it?" Ding Huan eagerly asked.

"It's following the merchant squads of various races into the Immortal Court. Although many races are at war, there has always been commercial exchange between them.

For example, merchant squads from the Demon Clan and the Demon Race, they know that the Immortal Court has many good things, and often travel to the Immortal Court to do business. Such merchant squads are generally allowed to enter."

"Then that settles it, we'll just join a merchant squad," Ding Huan said, delighted.

Kulu shook his head: "I'm afraid that won't work. First, these kinds of merchant squads may not let us join.

Second, we are from the Human Tribe, visibly distinct if we join squads of other races. And the merchant squads have to leave, they can only stay in the Immortal Court for a certain period of time."

"What's there to be afraid of? Let's join first, then talk. Tell me, how can we meet these merchant squads?" Ding Huan said without hesitation.

"It's easy to come across merchant squads; we just wait on the road they must take. There is a road leading to the Immortal Court, called Southern Heavenly Avenue. Any merchant squad that wants to go to the Immortal Court must pass through Southern Heavenly Avenue."

"Then let's just do that."

"Shall we go now?"

"No, I'll give you a Jade Scroll, and you need to practice the disguise technique in it first," Ding Huan said as he handed a Jade Scroll to Kulu.

It was a Divine Skill he had modified using the Great Universe Technique, which could change a person's aura and appearance.

Originally, it was the Earth Evil Illusion Technique, it was just made beyond recognition by his changes.

Until now, Ding Huan dared not be himself and associate with Kulu.

It wasn't that he didn't trust Kulu, but he was worried about what would happen if Kulu was captured.

If Kulu got caught, even if he didn't talk, his capture might still reveal information about him.

He himself didn't care, but it would be the end for the Yaochi Jade Maiden Sect and Wen Zhixi.

Kulu indifferently took the Jade Scroll, then looked at Ding Huan with surprise: "Zhang San, my friend, this is a Divine Skill evolved from the Earth Evil Illusion Technique, isn't it?"

The Earth Evil Illusion Technique was one of those legendary techniques that only a few powerful figures in the Heavenly Court had control over. Ding Huan presenting this skill was simply beyond belief.

"Right, I came across it by chance. You must learn it first, then you can enter the Immortal Court. Otherwise, as soon as you go in, you'll become a target," Ding Huan said.

"Okay, thank you so much." Kulu was overwhelmed with excitement, this skill was something he had longed for even while working in the Star Monarch Mansion.

Without needing any encouragement from Ding Huan, having obtained such a skill, he naturally began to comprehend and practice it immediately. No one could resist the allure of the Earth Evil Illusion Technique, not even the modified version.

With Ding Huan explaining on the side, it took Kulu only three days to be able to clearly transform his appearance.

"Amazing," feeling his appearance and aura had completely changed, Kulu couldn't help but express his admiration.

Ding Huan said, "Good, we must hurry. I'm worried that old fellow will come to his senses. If he goes outside the Heavenly Court to wait for us again, then we really will have no way out."

"Okay."

Kulu pulled out a Teleportation Talisman.

"Let me check it," Ding Huan said as he immediately reached for the Teleportation Talisman to examine it several times over.

After confirming there were no issues, he teleported away with Kulu.

He had checked Wu Jian's ring, and inside Wu Jian's ring, strangely enough, there were no Teleportation Talismans that led directly outside the Immortal Court.

In fact, even if there were Teleportation Talismans in Wu Jian's ring, Ding Huan guessed he would dare not use them.

Wu Jian was the son of the Du Yue Star Lord; how could he dare to use Wu Jian's Teleportation Talisman casually?

No matter what Kulu was like, his Teleportation Talisman was truly excellent, directly transporting Ding Huan to a plaza outside the Immortal Court.

The plaza bustled with people teleporting in and out, showing that this had always been a place for Cultivators to teleport into the Immortal Court.

The Teleportation Arrays from the Ancient Immortal Domain to the Immortal Court were not numerous, and most people coming from or returning to the Immortal Court relied on Teleportation Talismans.

The fact that Kulu had a Teleportation Talisman was naturally because he was Wu Jian's Shadow Guard.

"I'll take you to Southern Heavenly Avenue, where there are plenty of merchant squads of various races," Kulu whispered.
