After the myth

Chapter 1111 Di Xin
Dixin?

Ding Huan stared at the tall, thin, and somewhat frivolous guy in front of him; this was the second time he had heard this name.

The first time was when Lan Xiaobu brought it up. When the few of them were discussing Taoism, Lan Xiaobu mentioned Dixin.

When Lan Xiaobu was in the center of chaos, he captured a guy named Qi Yuan. This guy told Lan Xiaobu that the controller of the center of chaos was Di Xin.

The Pang Bu Zi whom the three of them initially feared, the one who could threaten them across realms with his handprints, was merely a subordinate of Di Xin.

According to Lan Xiaobu's deduction, the center of chaos is controlled by a group of powerful individuals who do nothing but consume resources for cultivation.

As for the maintenance of the Chaos Center and the protection of the world of gods, these tasks are left to a few people below.

For example, Pang Buzi.

This guy is like the Heavenly Dao in the world of gods, but in the center of chaos, he's just a grandson.

He heard about Dixin a second time when Lü Bingqi gave him the black stone ball.

The stone sphere was locked by the Source Law Restriction. After he unlocked the Source Law Restriction, a guy named Qingqi left a message.

Qingqi was imprisoned by Dixin, who then asked him to go to the Nine Heavens to beg Hongjun for help.

He did go to the Nine Heavens, but unfortunately, Hongjun took him away again.

“Brother Ding, I think I’ve heard of this person before, he, he…”

As Xian Qing'an spoke, he finally remembered who the person was, and his voice trembled slightly.

Ding Huan's voice was very calm: "Master Xian, you don't need to worry."

Di Xin is indeed very strong, but the Di Xin before us should only be a phantom body of Di Xin's Daoist consciousness, or rather, an avatar of Di Xin.

Even so, Ding Huan was almost certain in his heart that this was not a clone of Di Xin, but rather a body of Di Xin's Daoist consciousness.

Ding Huan knew that among the people he knew, probably no one could condense their Daoist thoughts to such a substantial level.

This is not an illusion; an illusion is merely a superficial appearance.

The Daoist body before us is capable of unleashing the divine powers of the Great Dao.

Even Kui Feng, who attacked him back then, probably couldn't have done it.

Di Xin looked at Ding Huan in surprise: "You have good insight. Do you know why I haven't killed you yet?"

Ding Huan didn't answer; he was thinking about his chances of winning.

He didn't need to calculate when facing the true form of Dixin, because he was certain that he was no match for him.

He still has a chance against Di Xin's Daoist physical body.

The physical body of Daoist thought has many limitations, including insufficient means of temporary combat and perception.

Even if he is no match for this person, he will not be crushed by him.

Even if Ding Huan is not the best, he is still a proper eighth step of the Great Dao.

It's pathetic that someone at the eighth step of the Great Dao could be crushed by a mere illusory body of Dao consciousness.

“I put a lot of effort into training Ji Yuan’an, and he had only just begun to work for me when you killed him. So your only chance to live is to take Ji Yuan’an’s place.”

After Di Xin finished speaking, he simply used the Great Dao Domain to lock Ding Huan in place without making a move.

He was waiting for Ding Huan's reply.

Di Xin also felt a pang of regret. If he could have seen Ding Huan sooner, why would he have needed to train Ji Yuan'an?
It's such a waste of his time and resources.

Ding Huan's domain was merely to protect the space he was in; he did not launch an attack. On the surface, he was also seriously considering Di Xin's words.

In reality, Ding Huan always felt that there was a third person present.

The third person he was thinking of was neither Xian Qing'an, nor Tantai Zhilan, nor Gu Changyu.

Instead, it was a third party who wanted to influence the battle between him and Dixin.

Ding Huan was deeply shocked.

He comprehended the rules of heaven and earth, the laws of all things, and even the fundamental principles of the universe.

Everything that exists in the universe should, in theory, be within his perception range.

Someone was about to enter his battle, but he could only vaguely sense it and couldn't clearly understand where the other party was or who they were.

Regardless of this person's actual strength, his ability to conceal himself is probably comparable to Mo Wuji's.

This requires a certain level of understanding of the source laws and the ability to perfectly utilize the source laws of the surrounding space.

This person is definitely not Mo Wuji.

If it were Mo Wuji, he wouldn't be so terrified.

Could he be a match for Dixin?

They planned to launch a surprise attack on Di Xin while he was fighting with Di Xin.
It's possible, but the probability is not high.

Dixin is not the true deity, but rather the embodiment of the Daoist thought.

Even if the other party kills Di Xin, it will only increase Di Xin's anger and hatred, and will not bring any benefit.

If it wasn't Dixin who was targeted, then it could only be him.

Ding Huan did not extend his divine sense to investigate further.

No matter how strong Dixin is, what stands before him now are just countless mental bodies.

This psychic body might be stronger than him; as long as the original body isn't here, its sixth sense is definitely inferior to his.

Therefore, he can sense the presence of a third hidden person, while the other party may not be able to sense it.

If this third party is there to help him, wouldn't his careful search reveal to Dixin that there might be another person here?

More likely, this guy is taking advantage of Ding Huan's misfortune, and if Ding Huan is suppressed by Di Xin, he'll be in big trouble.

"Looks like you're not willing." After saying this, Di Xin didn't hesitate at all and raised his hand to slap Ding Huan.

This tactic is like a top expert treating an ant with utter contempt.

As Dixin's handprint descended, Ding Huan's Great Dao Domain rapidly dissipated, and the space around him began to shrink.

Ding Huan finally understood where Ji Yuan'an's Star Domain Ring Divine Power came from.

It was definitely taught by Dishin.

Unlike Heji Yuan'an, Dixin did not need to rely on the abacus magic weapon to perform this supernatural power.

Ding Huan's Blade Technique for Breaking Calamity gathered wildly, and his blade intent continued to rise. But he simply wouldn't unleash it.

Even though Ding Huan's Daoist principles were gradually torn apart by the compressed space, and blood was spilling from the corner of his mouth, he still refused to draw his sword.

All rules in the space continued to crumble, and the entire space began to collapse.

After Ding Huan's protective Daoist aura cracked, his bones made slight cracking sounds, and if it continued, cracks would appear in his Daoist foundation.

Even so, Ding Huan still did not draw his sword.

"what……"

Dixin looked at Ding Huan with a puzzled expression, and the spatial compression eased slightly.

"You figured it out?"

Seeing that Ding Huan didn't make a move, he assumed that Ding Huan wasn't truly unwilling to take Ji Yuan'an's place.

This cannot be blamed on Dishin.

In the legends of the world of gods, Taxin is a taboo.

Just like in the ancient Chinese legends, Pangu opened up the chaos of heaven and earth.

Dixin's status in the world of gods is equivalent to that of Pangu in Chinese legend.

Ding Huan missed the best opportunity to strike, and Di Xin felt that Ding Huan might want to defect to him.

Otherwise, they'd be courting death.

This is the most correct choice.

Just as he was about to imprison Ding Huan, a deathly aura that spanned the collapsed space blasted towards Di Xin.

At the same time, Ding Huan finally drew his sword.

Di Xin's protective Daoist aura shattered instantly, and then a yellow light tore through Di Xin's unsuspecting body.

Or rather, Di Xin, with his Daoist physical body, was unable to defend against anything else after focusing all his efforts on dealing with Ding Huan.

boom!
Di Xin's fist slammed into Ding Huan's Broken Blade.

What collapsed was no longer space, but the boundaries.

Ding Huan felt the violent Daoist aura sweeping over from the Broken Tribulation Blade. He was sent flying backward, spitting out a jet of blood.

Ding Huan knew very well that Di Xin had made a mistake in his judgment.

In his haste, Dixin assumed that the aura of death was also his doing, unaware that a third person was hiding there.

If it were Didin himself, he would never have made such a mistake.

This is the disadvantage of the physical body in relation to Daoist thought.

Although Di Xin suppressed his Breaking Blade Technique with a single punch, he also sent him flying.

But he didn't use his full strength; he only made a move to assist the guy who launched the sneak attack.

"You're asking for death..." Didin roared.

Ding Huan saw a short man grab something from Di Xin's Daoist body.

Dixin's Daoist thoughts merely roared angrily before dissipating and disappearing into the void.

He probably knew that he had no chance of winning.

The fight happened in the blink of an eye; by the time those around them reacted, it was already over.

Ding Huan looked at the thin cultivator who hadn't left yet, and his domain surged out again: "Dung beetle, long time no see. I knew you dung beetle wouldn't die so quickly."

The thin man's aura suddenly changed, and then he became clear, revealing himself to be Zuo Shanyi.

Zuo Shanyi said calmly, "Ding Huan, is this how you treat your savior?"

Ding Huan's domain slammed down: "Indeed, you are my savior. If I hadn't known you were here, it would probably be me, Ding Huan, who would be killed now, not Di Xin's Dao Nian body."

Ding Huan was certain that Zuo Shanyi had come for him.

This guy had been secretly planning to ambush him.

Unfortunately, he never gave this guy a chance.

It wasn't until he killed Ji Yuan'an and Di Xin arrived that this guy finally seized his opportunity.

However, at this moment he realized that a third person had arrived.

Zuo Shanyi knew very well that if he didn't make a move soon, he would immediately flee.

Therefore, Zuo Shanyi changed his target from him to Di Xin.

Zuo Shanyi definitely stole a top-tier treasure from Di Xin, but Ding Huan didn't see clearly what it was.

"Those things don't matter. What matters is that I saved you, and I even helped you kill Di Xin, which offended a ruthless person," Zuo Shanyi said nonchalantly.

Ding Huan's Broken Blade came crashing down again.

This time he used eight-tenths of his strength.

Zuo Shanyi must have had some incredible luck to have reached this level of strength.

"boom!"

The divine power exploded in the void, and the place called Changsheng Palace was completely destroyed.

Zuo Shanyi spat out a jet of blood and followed Ding Huan's sword strike, retreating from Ding Huan's Great Dao Domain.

"Ding Huan, I am no match for you now, but we shouldn't be opponents."

We've both offended Di Xin. You should know that Di Xin's strength far surpasses ours. If we don't join forces, we'll only be throwing our lives away.

Zuo Shanyi wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said sincerely.

Ding Huan knew this guy was a venomous snake. He stared at Zuo Shanyi and said, "I fought Di Xin to the death, coughed up blood, and was seriously injured, but I got nothing."

"And while you were using me to hold off Dixin, you reaped the benefits without lifting a finger, and now you still have the nerve to talk to me about joining forces?"

Ding Huan had no idea what benefits Zuo Shanyi had received, but he was certainly not a simple man.

Would someone like Zuo Shanyi, who achieves easy success, risk offending Di Xin?
(Good night, fellow Taoists!)
