After the myth

Chapter 1160 Jiu Gai Bagui
Shen Dai's guest room suddenly became quiet.

Entropy even forgot about Ding Huan's cultivation.

Did Ding Huan teach Di Xin a lesson? Did he even chop off half of Di Xin's body?
If Di Xin was so trash, Mo Yuantian wouldn't be so afraid of this guy.

Back then, Di Xin almost replaced Mo Yuantian's position and became the leader of the ten realm masters in the first universe.

It can be said that if Mo Yuantian hadn't made empty promises to the other world lords of the First Universe, he would have been killed by Di Xin long ago.

Because he was so wary of Di Xin, Mo Yuantian was constantly on guard against him after Di Xin returned to the First Universe.

The reason he was unwilling to stay in the central location of the First Universe was that he instead came to this remote corner where Shen Dai's cave was located.

Isn't it just that they don't want to help Mo Yuantian deal with Di Xin?
How could Ding Huan see that Di Xin ambushed him, yet he easily and severely injured Di Xin?
Besides, would someone like Di Xin really ambush Ding Huan, an unknown cultivator from another universe?
No matter how you look at it or listen to it, Ding Huan's words don't seem to be true.

The reason he valued Ding Huan was because he learned a lot from Shen Dai, and through Shen Dai's judgment, he came to a conclusion.

That means Ding Huan is no ordinary person.

It should be said that Ding Huan's future is very promising.

The future and the present are two completely different concepts.

Ding Huan can kill Dou Ling, see through Huo Shi, and take the things in Dou Ling's cave after taking the eighth step of the Great Dao.

That means that once Ding Huan steps into the ninth stage, he might be even stronger than Mo Yuantian.

If Ding Huan could easily injure Di Xin when he was at the eighth step of the Great Dao, wouldn't that mean that Ding Huan's future achievements could be comparable to one of the Five Patriarchs?

Entropy was so shocked that Shen Dai opened his mouth wide, unable to utter a single word for a long time.

Several breaths later, Shen Dai asked in disbelief, "Brother Ding, did you really severely injure Di Xin? Are you sure it was Di Xin?"

He knew Ding Huan was stronger than him, but he really didn't believe that Ding Huan could seriously injure Di Xin.

He had witnessed Ding Huan's strength firsthand; he was far inferior to Di Xin.

Ding Huan said calmly, "What, do I need to lie to teach Di Xin a lesson?"

Entropy took a deep breath, and his tone became much more polite. He ended up asking the same question as Shen Dai: "Brother Ding, did you really severely injure Di Xin?"

Ding Huan frowned, seemingly quite dissatisfied with the repeated doubts from Entropy and Shen Dai.

However, he didn't say anything, and instead tossed out a net-like magical artifact.

"The Great Network?" Entropy and Shen Dai exclaimed in shock at the same time.

The most iconic magical artifacts of the Dixin are two: the first is the Great Order of the Universe, and the second is the Great Net.

The Great Order of the Universe is the lifeblood of Didin; if it is lost, it means Didin has been killed.

The Great Net is also one of the top treasures of Dixin. Now that it has fallen into Ding Huan's hands, it is obvious that it has been severely damaged. Otherwise, the Great Net would not be in Ding Huan's possession.

Seeing that he had subdued the entropy, Ding Huan put away the Great Net.

Entropy realized what was happening, stood up excitedly, and bowed to Ding Huan: "Brother Ding, I wonder if Di Xin's Dao body is still intact?"

Without realizing it, he had changed how he addressed Ding Huan.

"I traded it to a friend," Ding Huan said nonchalantly.

A deal has been made?
Entropy was wondering how Ding Huan had obtained the Di Xin Great Net; he found it hard to believe that Ding Huan would trade away Di Xin's Dao Body.

Dixin's Dao body possesses a vast primordial spirit, which is the key to taking the ninth step of the Great Dao.

Similarly, to attain the ninth step of the ultimate Dao, one must possess a vast and primordial spirit.

How could Ding Huan possibly trade something like this?

Either Ding Huan was lying to him and Shen Dai, or Ding Huan obtained Da Zewang through some means.

However, there is also the possibility that Ding Huan was unaware of the matter of the vast primordial spirit.

This is possible. Ding Huan is not a native cultivator of the First Universe, so it's normal that he doesn't know about the vast primordial spirit.

"Brother Ding, to whom was that Dao body traded?"

Entropy asked cautiously.

After asking the question, I seemed to realize I had crossed a line, so I quickly added:
“Brother Ding, I didn’t mean anything by it. It’s just that Di Xin’s background is extraordinary, which is why I’m paying attention to him.”

I'm worried that once this broken body leaves Brother Ding's hands, it will be taken back by Di Xin again.

Although the possibility of entropy being the cause was very small, Ding Huan's heart still stirred slightly.

It's hard to say what will happen. If Ji Yijian's Dao Body falls into Di Xin's hands again, that would not be a good thing.

"His name is Ji Yijian, and strictly speaking, he can be considered a realm lord." Ding Huan had no intention of hiding anything.

Hime-i-ken?
Entropy and Shen Dai exchanged a glance.

Ji Yijian was indeed one of the Realm Lords, but he was stripped of his position long ago, and his whereabouts became unknown after he was surrounded and killed.

There have always been only nine Realm Lords in the First Universe, and none of them, including Shen Dai, considered Ji Yijian to be a Realm Lord.

If it is Ji Yijian, then it is not surprising that she wants the vast primordial spirit.

Entropy's tone became serious: "Brother Ding, after hearing about what you did from Shen Dai, I have always admired you very much."

I believe Brother Ding must know that the cosmic landscape beneath the vastness is about to change, and many powerful figures are emerging from the shadows, wanting to reap their own benefits.

This Ji Yijian is probably no ordinary person. His strength should be even higher than that of Qu Ba, the Third Realm Lord. He has been hiding his true abilities all along... Back when the rankings of the ten Realm Lords of the First Universe were determined, they were strictly based on strength.

The higher the ranking, the more resources you receive. For us realm lords, the more resources the better.

Ji Yijian, without vying for anything, voluntarily agreed to become the tenth realm lord and protect the Eight Valleys of the First Universe…

Batang Canyon?

Ding Huan had a sudden thought: if there is an Eight Gorges, is there also a Nine Gorges or something?

Shen Dai said from the side, "Yes, Brother Ding, the Eight-Town Canyon is much more dangerous than the place I guard. Ji Yijian doesn't seem like the kind of guy who's willing to sacrifice himself. You have to be careful of him."

Ding Huan stood up: "Fellow Daoist Shang, my interactions with Ji Yijian are merely preparations for a potential collaboration."

Ji Yijian asked me to do something together, and if it succeeds, there will be considerable benefits. As for whether Ji Yijian is a good or bad person, that's not really my concern.

"If Fellow Daoist Shang and Fellow Daoist Shen are willing, I will invite you to come together. If you two are not willing to go, I will not invite you when I leave."

Shen Dai was just a minor character; it was only because he was called Shang that he wasn't called Shen Dai, which was a bit disrespectful to Shen Dai.

Entropy didn't continue talking about Ji Yijian. Instead, he immediately said, "Brother Ding, I really admire you. If we ever make a fortune together, call me your little brother."

"Alright, that's fine. I'll definitely come and get you then. I won't stay here any longer today. Goodbye."

After sending Qu Yi back, Ding Huan was in a hurry to break through to the ninth step of the Great Dao in the Vast Yuanmai River, so he didn't have time to waste time talking nonsense.

Entropy took out a small world and handed it to Ding Huan: "Brother Ding and I hit it off immediately. I'll give this little thing in this small world to this junior sister."

Although it was handed to Ding Huan, it was actually given to Qu Yi.

Ding Huan's divine sense had already detected that the small world was actually a cosmic primordial mountain.

He truly admired him.

Shen Dai is supposed to be a Realm Lord, yet he hasn't even managed to acquire a single Cosmic Origin Mountain.

Entropy can send out a cosmic primordial mountain with a mere wave of his hand; there's really no comparison between people.

At the same time, Ding Huan secretly thought that this guy really had a good eye, knowing that Qu Yi and he had an extraordinary relationship.

If I give it to him directly, it wouldn't be good if he didn't reciprocate.

By giving the gift to Qu Yi through him, you can gain his favor without having to give anything in return.

If it were anything else, Ding Huan definitely wouldn't have wanted it, but with the Cosmic Origin Mountain, Ding Huan didn't refuse anymore and accepted it without hesitation.

For Qu Yi to step into the eighth step of the Great Dao, the Cosmic Yuanmai Mountain is naturally the best thing.

Seeing that Ding Huan had taken the Cosmic Yuanmai Mountain, Entropy was overjoyed: "Brother Ding, Di Xin's strength can definitely crush Ji Yijian and Mo Yuantian's combined forces with ease."

He was severely injured by you, and it's very likely that his physical body hasn't recovered yet. Back then, he was kicked out of the First Universe.

The only thing I don't understand is why this guy dared to return to the First Universe without recovering. Dixin is a very strange person; Brother Ding should be careful in the future.

It's best not to give this large net to anyone else, otherwise something bad might happen.

It's not surprising that Di Xin didn't recover Ding Huan's strength. Not to mention Di Xin, Ji Yi Jian's strength is also questionable.

If Ji Yijian's strength was not an issue, then he wouldn't have invited him to join in plotting against Siwu, nor would he have so strongly desired Dixin's Dao body.

"Fellow Daoist Entropy, thank you very much."

Even without the entropy warning, as long as Dixin is alive, he would not give the Great Net to the people around him.

As Ding Huan was about to leave, he remembered the Nine Gai and Eight Cliffs and casually asked, "Fellow Daoist Shang, do you know about the Nine Gai?"

Upon hearing Ding Huan mention Jiu Gai, Shang's expression changed slightly, and he lowered his voice to say, "Brother Ding, be careful what you say. Outside Jiu Gai is the dojo of Wu Dao, one of the three paths, and he is also the person with the most eccentric temperament."

"It's best to avoid mentioning it if possible. The First Universe has its established principles and laws; if he finds out someone has mentioned his dojo, disaster will befall us."

One of the three paths?

Why is the area outside Jiugai a sacred site, while the Bayan Canyon needs to be guarded?
Seeing the drastic change in Shang's expression, Ding Huan didn't ask any more questions.

Entropy is a smooth and tactful person with good judgment.

But he still preferred to team up with Ji Yijian, and fight if necessary.

Ji Yijian dared to scheme against even Si Wu, and she showed no fear when it came to the One Yuan Three Paths, unlike the cautious and timid Entropy.

Since that's the case, he should just ask Ji Yijian when the time comes.

Ji Yijian herself guards the Eight Valleys, so she must know even more.

"Is Fellow Daoist Shen Dai here? Ku Baizhen has come to pay his respects." As the voice came, the restrictions on Shen Dai's cave were activated.

Shen Dai looked outside with a puzzled expression.

Although he was the Ninth Realm Lord, Ku Baizhen's status as the Eighth Realm Lord was simply beyond his reach.

The two had never interacted. To be precise, apart from Entropy, no realm lord would be willing to lower himself to associate with Shen Dai.

With Ku Baizhen's strength, killing Shen Dai would be a piece of cake.

Ku Bai is indeed the master of the Eighth Realm; his attainment of the Ninth Step of the Great Dao is a hundred times stronger than Shen Dai's.

(Good night, fellow Taoists!)
