The protagonist is obviously strong but very cautious

Ding Dafeng looked at the closed door behind him.

His gaze immediately turned cold as he looked around.

"I wonder which fellow Daoist set this trap. I would like to ask you to come out and meet me."

Ding Dafeng called out to those around him, trying to communicate with them.

however.

There was no response from the surroundings.

Its location, though seemingly picturesque and self-contained, exudes an air of inexplicable danger and eeriness.

Ding Dafeng knew that things couldn't continue like this.

He immediately moved swiftly, exploring the space in an attempt to find an exit.

however.

No matter how he wandered around, he couldn't find any way to leave this place.

"A maze?"

Ding Dafeng quickly discovered the crux of the problem.

He found himself trapped in a maze.

An unease enveloped him. He raised his eyes and looked again at the nine primordial Dao patterns in the distance.

There's no doubt about the aura of the nine primordial Dao patterns; they must be primordial Dao patterns.

That's how it is.

He continued towards the direction of the original Dao patterns, hoping to find an exit from here.

Simultaneously.

Ding Xiaofeng was guarding that gate.

suddenly!

He lost the presence of his brother, Ding Dafeng.

"what happened?"

After a moment's thought, Ding Xiaofeng immediately sent out his Daoist body to investigate the situation inside the portal.

however.

His Dao body had only been inside for a short time when it also disappeared without a trace, as if it had vanished.

Ding Xiaofeng became anxious and immediately sent a message to call for help. Then, he immediately entered the portal, fearing that his brother might be in danger.

Ding Xiaofeng entered the portal and soon saw nine primordial Dao patterns floating in the air.

Primal Dao Patterns, nine primal Dao Patterns!
Those who break through the barriers find it hard not to be tempted by the original Dao patterns.

For many who attempt to break through barriers, the lack of original Dao patterns prevents them from making a desperate attempt to break through.

The same applies to Ding Xiaofeng.

Although his name is Xiao Feng, he is actually nine thousand years old.

He was an ancient figure, and his purpose in coming to this world was to find the Fountain of Youth to extend the lives of himself and his brother.

now.

The Fountain of Youth was not found, but nine primordial Dao patterns were discovered in this place.

If they could acquire all nine primordial Dao patterns, they could then exchange them for items that could help them prolong their lives.

The primordial Dao patterns are known as the most precious treasure in the primordial immortal realm.

Any powerful force or any individual needs primordial Dao patterns.

Ding Xiaofeng looked at the nine primordial Dao patterns as he moved forward, attempting to acquire them.

however.

Ding Xiaofeng encountered the same situation as Ding Dafeng.

No matter how hard he tried, he could not get close to the nine original Dao patterns; they seemed so close, yet so far away.

wrong!

Ding Xiaofeng immediately stopped chasing.

He released his spiritual energy to probe for danger in the surroundings and search for his elder brother's aura.

pity.

There was nothing there; it was as if he were trapped in a maze, and no matter how he moved or ran, he could not get out.

Both Ding Dafeng and Ding Xiaofeng were trapped by the nine original Dao patterns.

Not long after, the reinforcements summoned by Ding Xiaofeng arrived.

Zhang Qi and Wang Wu once joined forces with the Feng brothers to try to besiege Zheng Tuo, but they left after finding nothing.

now.

Ding Xiaofeng sent a message to the two of them, asking them to come and help.

When they arrived at this place, they discovered the Daoist body left behind by Ding Xiaofeng.

Based on Ding Xiaofeng's words, Zhang Qi and Wang Wu's hearts stirred.

Primal Dao patterns?

How could there be primordial Dao patterns here?

Zhang Qi and Wang Wu couldn't help but feel nervous!

The two of them teamed up for an expedition, during which they saw and heard about ancient wallbreakers being killed there.

It seems that someone in this world is secretly targeting and killing these old relics in order to seize the original Dao patterns on their bodies.

Although Zhang Qi and Wang Wu were familiar with the Feng brothers, they were both quite hesitant at this moment.

They feared that the Feng brothers were plotting against them to steal the original Dao patterns on their bodies.

and so.

Zhang Qi and Wang Wu cautiously sent out their own Daoist bodies to explore the portal. After doing so, they were both filled with astonishment!

Nine original grooves.

In the world behind the door, there were actually nine primordial Dao patterns.

"This matter is probably not simple!" Zhang Qi analyzed.

"It's definitely not simple. Nine primordial Dao patterns... Could it be that someone has set a trap to try and kill us?" Wang Wu said cautiously.

"What are your thoughts?" Zhang Qi asked.

“The original Dao patterns are indeed a good thing. Since we have encountered them, we should naturally take a chance, but we must not be reckless.”

Wang Wu looked at Zhang Qi with a preconceived notion.

"You mean call for reinforcements?" Zhang Qi understood immediately.

“I have two good friends who have also come to this great world. Why don’t we invite them over and form a team of four? If we succeed, each of us can get two primordial Dao patterns. What do you think?”

Wang Wu understood that someone must have set a trap here, but as long as they had enough people, they could break it.

If they went alone out of greed, there would likely be great danger, and they might even perish here.

"No problem, hurry up and call someone over." Zhang Qi nodded.

Wang Wu immediately sent a message to his two friends, summoning them to come quickly as there was an urgent matter.

a few days later.

Two figures descended into the mountains.

An old man, with a rugged build, resembling a wild man, named Manshan, was a man of great strength and power.

A beautiful woman, who looked middle-aged, was actually nine thousand years old, and her name was Niu Qianhua.

After their arrival, they exchanged pleasantries and each sent out their own Dao avatars to explore the world behind the gate.

Upon learning that there were nine original Dao patterns, they were all extremely excited.

"If the four of us join forces, we can definitely take them all."

Man Shan laughed heartily, very happy that Wang Wu had asked him for help, which showed that Wang Wu considered him a friend.

Are four people enough?

Niu Qianhua said cautiously.

"To be honest, the Feng brothers have already entered, and they are two Wall Breakers. If we meet them later, we will have a lineup of six Wall Breakers."

Zhang Qi didn't mince words.

"Six fellow Daoists, nine primordial Dao patterns, how will they be divided?"

Niu Qianhua speaks very directly and makes things clear to avoid falling out later.

“Simple. One original Dao pattern each is enough for you and me. We can use the remaining three to exchange for life-extending items and split them equally, how about that?” Wang Wu suggested.

“Hmm, what you said makes sense.” Niu Qianhua nodded.

"In that case, let's set off."

Manshan couldn't wait to acquire the nine original Dao patterns.

"and many more!"

Zhang Qi stopped the group of people who were about to leave.

"Let's work together to cover up the entrance to this place, so that outsiders won't come and compete with us for the original Dao patterns."

“Yes, yes, Seventh Brother is right. There are probably more than a hundred Wall Breakers in this world now, and more are on their way. All for the Fountain of Immortality. In such a bustling world, there is a high chance that other Wall Breakers will also discover this place. You and I should seal this place to prevent anyone from getting close.” Wang Wu affirmed Seventh Brother’s caution.

“In that case, why don’t we leave our Daoist bodies here to guard the gate? If anyone comes, we can just drive them away,” Man Shan suggested.

“No way.” Zhang Qi rejected Man Shan’s plan. “All the outsiders in this world are Breakthrough Realm beings. If a few Half-Step Breakthrough Realm beings suddenly stay here, wouldn’t that be telling people that there are treasures here?”

"Yes, you make a lot of sense."

Man Shan nodded, agreeing with this statement.

The four powerful individuals joined forces to seal this place, so from the outside, people could not see any portal at all.

"set off!"

The four turned around, entered the portal, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

After the group left, the door closed automatically, as if it had never existed.

Simultaneously.

Zhang Qi, Wang Wu, Man Shan, and Niu Qianhua, four powerful individuals, joined forces to arrive in a unique world.

Looking at this lush and verdant world, the four powerful figures all saw the nine primordial Dao patterns in the sky.

"There really are nine primordial Dao patterns!"

Man Shan initially didn't believe it; with such rare primordial Dao patterns, how could there be nine here?

But seeing the nine primordial Dao patterns floating in the sky, he, as a Breaker-level being, quickly confirmed that the nine primordial Dao patterns were real.

"The nine primordial Dao patterns are just laid out here like this. Someone must have set this up!"

Niu Qianhua is cautious enough.

She looked around, trying to spot the person hiding in the shadows.

"Everyone be careful. The fact that the other party is willing to use nine primordial Dao patterns as bait means that he must be a formidable figure."

Zhang Qi reminded the people around him.

The four powerful individuals joined forces to move forward, attempting to approach the nine primordial Dao patterns.

But what is happening now is exactly the same situation that the Feng brothers encountered.

No matter how fast they went or what methods they used, they could not get close to those nine primordial Dao patterns.

So close yet so far away—that's the feeling right now.

"strangeness?"

The four had to stop.

“There is a maze here that traps us, preventing us from getting close to the nine primordial Dao patterns. If we want to get close to the nine primordial Dao patterns, we must first break through the maze,” Zhang Qi explained the most important reason.

"Break the formation!"

The people present looked at each other.

They were only familiar with formations, far from being proficient, let alone able to set up divine formations.

The formation here was able to trap them, clearly reaching the level of a divine formation.

Faced with a formation of divine power, they have no way to break it unless they use brute force.

The four powerful figures looked at each other, and finally, Niu Qianhua stepped forward.

"I'll give it a try."

With the help of the three, Niu Qianhua began to unravel the maze.

at the same time.

Where Zheng Tuo, the god-slayer, is located.

He sat cross-legged, his appearance solemn and dignified, practicing the Dao patterns on the altar, striving to learn them as soon as possible and then leave this formation.

For him, there was something more important to deal with: the Fountain of Youth.

He could sense the location of the Fountain of Youth, and he was also chasing after it, but he unintentionally entered this place and got trapped.

Maintain your current state and continue cultivating the White Lotus Dao Pattern.

Just now.

hum!
He felt a familiar fluctuation coming from it.

This is?

Such fluctuations, so familiar—there's no mistake, they're actually fluctuations from the original Dao patterns.

strange?
Why is there suddenly a fluctuation of primordial Dao patterns?

He slowly got up and followed the fluctuations of the original Dao patterns to search for them.

That is?

He saw nine primordial Dao patterns in the distant sky.

The nine primordial Dao patterns, like nine azure dragons, roamed freely in the sky.

Judging from the appearance of the nine primordial Dao patterns, they are all ownerless.

Could it be that...

These nine unclaimed primordial Dao patterns are the nine primordial Dao patterns that the white elephant hid.
That's where the strange thing is.

The white elephant had hidden the nine original Dao patterns, so they shouldn't have been easily discovered.

But now.

The nine primordial Dao patterns seemed to wish everyone would notice them, as they were actually dancing in the sky.

Could it be that someone secretly took out nine primordial Dao patterns and deliberately placed them here?
impossible!
The white elephant had already been killed by him, and all its original Dao patterns had been taken away by him, so it was impossible for it to still be alive.

Besides the white elephant, the only remaining creatures in this formation are the old dog demon Ruxian Shixian Dao body and the weak, young white lotus.

They couldn't possibly have such methods, and besides, it wouldn't make any sense.

With these thoughts in mind, he did not approach the nine primordial Dao patterns, but instead chose to observe them from a distance.

however.

He did not approach the nine original Dao patterns.

The nine primordial Dao patterns actually headed towards his location.

what?
Zheng Tuo immediately became alert!

that's it.

He watched as the nine primordial Dao patterns came before him.

Looking at these nine unowned primordial Dao patterns, he could have simply taken them and made them his own, but he didn't.

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation.

The nine original Dao patterns, which should not have a master, should not have moved like this.

He didn't realize that any of his actions had attracted the approach of the nine primordial Dao patterns.

If that's the case, there's only one explanation for the nine primordial Dao patterns approaching him: someone is secretly manipulating them.

who is it?

His eyes flickered as he looked around, and immediately saw four powerful figures looking at him at the same time.

"Someone?"

Zheng Tuo was immediately astonished!

There were actually people inside this third-tier White Lotus Divine Array, and they were four beings at the Breakthrough level.

This unexpected turn of events put him on guard!
He recognized Zhang Qi and Wang Wu.

Those two guys teamed up with Senior Brother Feng that day, trying to target me, but I cleverly dodged them.

I never expected that we would run into each other here.

Zheng Tuo saw the four people, and the four people also saw Zheng Tuo.

Instantly.

The atmosphere between the two sides became delicate.

obviously.

Zhang Qi and Wang Wu also recognized Zheng Tuo.

even.

At this moment, both Man Shan and Niu Qianhua, these two old-fashioned people, recognized Zheng Tuo.

after all.

When Zheng Tuo broke through with this God-Slaying Dao Body, it caused quite a stir, attracting many old-timers to watch.

There are even some antique items being sold.

Many people in the primordial immortal realm knew his name and what he looked like.

Upon meeting, the four immediately recognized Zheng Tuo.

The two sides stared at each other from a distance, neither speaking, and the atmosphere became unusually subtle.

The subtle point is that the nine original Dao patterns are now right in front of Zheng Tuo.

Zheng Tuo could acquire all nine original Dao patterns if he so desired.

On the other hand, the four powerful figures led by Wang Wu came here with the aim of seizing the nine primordial Dao patterns.

The two sides simply stared at each other, neither making a move. (End of Chapter)
