After the myth

Chapter 1166 Eight-Tier Canyon
Ding Huan showed no mercy to people like Qingqi and wiped him out completely.

The world of gods also regained its vitality because of the luck of heaven and earth fed back by Qingqi. The cosmic Dao network that had not been completely extracted was also sent into the world of gods again by Ding Huan.

The world of gods should be considered the second universe, but no matter which universe it is, Ding Huan will try his best to preserve this universe of advanced life.

It's not just something I wanted to do; it's also fulfilling He Yan's wish.

He Yan absolutely did not want to see the world of gods destroyed.

……

Mo Wuji stopped.

His divine sense could no longer penetrate further, so it seemed he had arrived at the place he had been looking for; this was the Eight-Town Canyon.

He had spent nearly a thousand years traveling through the vast void just to get to the Eight Peaks Canyon.

Ever since learning about the Eight-Town Canyon in the Ten Directions Universe City, Mo Wuji had planned to come here.

The path he cultivates is different from others; he cultivates the path of mortals.

Since they are mortals, they exist at the very bottom of society.

He was also an ordinary person, and he had a clear understanding of the definition of the lower class.

He needs to perfect his mortal path, and the myriad miasma sources in the Eight Valleys and various abandoned path sources are all things he needs to comprehend.

These are the fundamental principles that were born at the beginning of the vastness. Even if he doesn't comprehend them, he should know their origins and sources, as well as their uses in the vastness.

According to Mo Wuji's investigation, the Eight Peaks Canyon was originally a place guarded by Ji Yijian, one of the Ten Realms Lords.

After Ji Yijian was surrounded and killed and escaped, the Eight Valleys were left unguarded.

Later, the first realm master, Mo Yuantian, sought help from Chebutou, one of the Five Ancestors of the Vast Expanse. Chebutou was easy to talk to, so he helped Mo Yuantian seal the Eight Valleys.

For Mo Wuji, all he had to do was quietly enter the seal.

A great change is imminent. Xiao Bu has now found his own opportunity, and although Ding Huan has not been contacted, he has probably also found his own opportunity.

He cannot stand still.

Entering the Eight-Town Canyon might be a dead end, but his path as a mortal has always been one of facing death and then finding life.

If he feared death, why would he cultivate the mortal path?
Despite knowing that the Eight Gorges was now unguarded, Mo Wuji remained hidden.

In the first universe, you could kill anyone you met.

He has to be extremely careful.

He's already spent hundreds of years traveling, why would he care about observing here for a few months?
Despite observing from outside the Eight Gorges, Mo Wuji's divine sense continued to extend through repeated attempts.

From initially being unable to reach the edge of the Eight-Town Canyon, to eventually being able to touch the seal of the Eight-Town Canyon with one's divine sense.

Just as he had predicted, the seal was somewhat damaged.

This place has been neglected for a long time, and although it is not riddled with holes, it is on the verge of collapse at any moment.

Some sources of miasma began to seep out, and Mo Wuji sensed the aura of these sources and was extremely excited.

His guess was correct; this place was the key to his ninth step in attaining enlightenment.

Even though Mo Wuji desperately wanted to enter the Eight Peaks Canyon, he still suppressed his inner impulse.

He would wait two months. If nothing changed and no one entered or left, he would enter the Bayan Canyon.

Mo Wuji didn't wait two months; just one month later, a man with a burlap sack tied around his head landed on the outskirts of the Eight-Town Canyon.

Mo Wuji's heart tightened, and he immediately closed his eyes.

He was quite cautious, having already merged with the surrounding void source; otherwise, this person would have discovered him as soon as he arrived.

He didn't use his divine sense or his eyes, but he could still perceive his surroundings.

After the man with the burlap sash arrived, he neither entered the sealed area of ​​the Eight Gorges nor set up any source boundary; instead, he simply stood there and waited.

Mo Wuji was in a state of anxiety. He was certain that if this person wanted to kill him, it would probably only take one move.

This person is not only strong, but terrifyingly strong.

Mo Wuji silently counted down the seconds in his mind.

Fortunately, his mortal cultivation was still quite good, and the guy with the burlap sack on his head didn't pay attention to his surroundings. Plus, he was quite far away, so he managed to escape unscathed.

About ten days later, a figure rapidly approached.

Mo Wuji couldn't help but use his storage network to sense the person who had arrived.

The newcomer was a man dressed in a golden robe, riding a golden three-edged sword. He had slightly dark skin, thin eyebrows, and a well-defined face.

Mo Wuji thought to himself, "Could this guy be Ji Yijian?"

The person who came was indeed Ji Yijian.

Ji Yijian only discovered that someone had already blocked her way when she arrived at the edge of the Eight-Town Canyon.

The guy blocking the way had already concealed his aura, and it was impossible to sense even a trace of him.

In addition, Ji Yijian felt that this place was the Eight-Town Canyon, which was almost the edge of the first universe.

Who would come to this place?
"Fellow……"

Ji Yijian's expression changed slightly after uttering just two words. He quickly put away his three-edged sword and bowed, saying, "Ji Yijian greets Senior Qitang."

Qi Tang?

Mo Wuji immediately realized who this person was.

If he hadn't been investigating the situation at the Eight-Town Canyon, he wouldn't have known who Qi Tang was.

He investigated the Eight-Town Canyon and learned that the seal on the canyon was set up by Che Bu after Ji Yijian's disappearance. Che Bu was one of the Five Ancestors of the Vast Expanse.

Because of Chebu, he also learned about the other four patriarchs from the side.

This Qi Tang is very likely Qi Qi Tang, one of the Five Ancestors of the Vast Expanse. Otherwise, Ji Yi Jian, with his status and position, would not have called him "senior".

I heard that the Five Ancestors were seriously injured during the great struggle back then, but now it seems that the rumors were wrong.

Qi Qitang seems to be uninjured, and her strength is still terrifying.

"Ji Yijian, do you know why I am here?" Qi Qitang asked in a calm tone.

Ji Yijian said respectfully, "I am unaware of your actions, senior, and dare not presume to speculate."

Qi Qitang's tone turned cold: "You must have obtained the Dao body of Di Xin and are preparing to enter the Eight Valleys for seclusion, right?"
Others can't enter the Eight-Town Canyon, but you should be able to. Because you possess a vast treasure, the Golden Blade of the Three Realms…”

Upon hearing this, Ji Yijian felt a chill run down his spine.

He thought no one knew the secret of his Three Realms Golden Blade, but he didn't expect Qi Qitang to know it.

To anyone else, the Three Realms Golden Blade is a top-tier offensive magic weapon, and in fact, it is indeed his only offensive magic weapon.

But the greater secret of the Three Realms Golden Blade is that it is also a top-tier spatial treasure, a vast magical artifact.

Although the Three Realms Golden Blade is considered a low-grade magical treasure, it can provide an extremely powerful spatial dimension.

As long as he remains within the Three Realms Golden Blade, he can still cultivate while controlling the Three Realms Golden Blade to enter the Eight Valleys.

The Eight-Town Canyon is densely populated with miasma and littered with garbage, yet it is still filled with the primordial energy from the time of its creation.

As long as he remains within the Golden Blade of the Three Realms, he can shield himself from the sources of miasma and pollution.

Otherwise, why would Ji Yijian, a fool, bother to come and protect the Eight Peaks Canyon?

Not to mention protecting the Eight Peaks Canyon, even falling out with the other realm lords, or even fighting Qu Ba in public, are all things he plans to do.

Otherwise, what business is it of Ji Yijian if Qu Ba kills a lot of people?
Because he was preparing to challenge the true, vast Dao and break through to the ninth step of the Dao.

That's why he didn't have time to waste on those worthless realm lords like Mo Yuantian.

He might as well disappear, then hide in the Eight-Town Canyon to cultivate and break through to the ninth step of the Great Dao.

His plan was perfect; he not only had a good public image, but he also completely distanced himself from those unambitious people.

After a million years of seclusion, he not only failed to break through to the ninth step of the Great Dao, but also damaged his own Dao foundation and his strength dropped by a level. Only then did he realize what he was lacking.

What he lacks is the vast, primordial spirit.

If we're talking about the vast, primordial spirit, who possesses the most of it?
It is naturally Si Wu.

Of the eighteen spirits that existed at the beginning of the vast universe, half of them were devoured by Si Wu.

Although there were more than eighteen spirits possessing the primordial spirit at the beginning of the vast universe, the primordial spirit of the eighteen spirits was the easiest to seize.

After hundreds of thousands of years of investigation, Ji Yijian finally found the location of Siwu's true form.

When he found Si Wu's true form, Si Wu had just woken up.

It must be that Si Wu's essence was used or stripped away by someone outside, which stimulated Si Wu's true form to awaken.

Even though Si Wu had just woken up, Ji Yijian didn't dare to plot against him alone.

He had few friends, as any one of the Ten Realms Lords was his enemy.

But it was at this time that he met Ding Huan.

He was very satisfied with Ding Huan's abilities and felt that Ding Huan was a good partner for the collaboration.

But Ding Huan's benefits to him didn't stop there. After only meeting Ding Huan, Ding Huan severely injured Di Xin, leaving behind only a small part of Di Xin's body.

Like the other, Dixin is a being that contains a vast and primordial spirit.

This guy's half-body is enough for him to recover his strength.

With a small portion of Di Xin's body, he simply postponed his attack on Si Wu and returned to the Eight Peaks Canyon to try and recover his strength using Di Xin's small portion of his body.

Unexpectedly, Qi Qitang was waiting for him here.

Could it be that Ding Huan told Qi Qitang?
No, Ding Huan would never have any connection with Qi Qitang.

Ji Yijian suddenly realized a terrifying possibility, and his face turned deathly pale...

As expected, Qi Qitang raised his hand and threw out Di Xin, whose face was even paler than his own.

“Dixin…”

It really was this guy. How did he find Qi Qitang? And even get Qi Qitang to help him vent his anger?

"I met Di Xin once. Return half of Di Xin's body to him." Qi Qitang's tone remained calm, as if asking, "Have you eaten yet?"
"Yes." No matter how unhappy or unwilling Ji Yijian was, she had no choice but to take out half of Di Xin's body.

He only regretted that he shouldn't have returned to seclusion.

Dixin's hands trembled with excitement. He rushed over and grabbed half of his own body.

"Tell me, where is that guy surnamed Ding?" Qi Qitang had no intention of letting Ji Yijian go.

Ji Yijian respectfully replied, "This junior was unaware."

"You can leave if you tell me, but if you don't, you'll stay here forever." Qi Qitang's voice remained calm and indifferent.

"Yes."

Ji Yijian dared not hide a single word: "He asked me for the location of the Vast Primordial River. I think he should go to the Vast Primordial River for seclusion."

(My head is still a little dizzy, but I can type now. Goodnight, fellow Daoist!)
