Chapter 525: You Really Dared to Come Out
"No need to come in—hand over your flying treasure, and we'll let you go."
These guys dared to attack his Cosmic Pot from outside, but now that he'd opened the array gate and invited them in, not one of them dared step forward.
Ding Huan could guess why these people were afraid to enter the Cosmic Pot.
Though his cultivation was mediocre, they couldn't break through the defense array of his Cosmic Pot, so they dared not enter.
They feared being trapped inside by his Binding and Killing Array.
Haha, a few Immortal Kings? Did he even need to use a Binding and Killing Array?
Ding Huan didn't even plan to use the Poison Dao laws.
"Esteemed Daoist, why not come out? If you dare step out, I, Qi Ning, swear I won't lay a hand on you—I don't want your pot anymore."
A sweet, lilting voice rang out, making Ding Huan's skin crawl with goosebumps.
"Haha, Sister Qi Ning, if he dares to come out, I, Jin Yuemang, will withdraw from the contest too." Another Immortal King on the spaceship's deck sneered.
Ding Huan guessed Qi Ning was from the Ten Thousand Realms Trading Association, and Jin Yuemang was from the Jin family of Luxing Immortal Continent.
That meant the middle spaceship must belong to the Gujia family.
Without a word, Ding Huan landed directly on the deck of the Gujia family's spaceship.
This move stunned everyone on all three ships—including Cang Diyi.
Even a madman wouldn't do something like this.
Cang Diyi stared blankly at Ding Huan, now standing on the Gujia spaceship—this Brother Huan, besides boasting, was also terrifyingly bold.
Had he met a complete fool?
The controller of this Gujia spaceship was a tall, thin man named Jia Zhong, an Immortal King of Mid-Stage realm.
Jia Zhong managed most of the Jia family's commerce, and his insight was second to none.
So the moment he saw Ding Huan's Cosmic Pot, he knew it wasn't ordinary—he'd been scheming all along on how to get his hands on it.
Entering the Cosmic Pot was impossible; their combined attacks as Immortal Kings had failed to stir even a single reaction from the outer array.
Once inside and locked by the Binding and Killing Array, even an Immortal King would surely die.
In short, as long as Ding Huan didn't open the Cosmic Pot's defense array, they truly had no good way forward.
"You really dared to come out?" Jia Zhong was thrown off by Ding Huan's action.
Was the opponent hiding his cultivation?
Jia Zhong immediately concluded Ding Huan must be concealing his true realm—otherwise, he wouldn't dare appear here.
Realizing Ding Huan was hiding his cultivation, Jia Zhong grew wary and instinctively stepped back a few paces, then signaled to another Jia family cultivator of Early-Stage Immortal King.
The two stood in a pincer formation, while the rest of the Jia family's Luo Tian Xian cultivators surrounded them, eyes locked on Ding Huan.
◆C〇
Jia Zhong believed that even if Ding Huan was hiding his cultivation, he couldn't possibly be an Immortal Emperor—they had numbers, and weren't afraid of one man.
After surrounding Ding Huan, Jia Zhong called out to the cultivators on the other two ships: "Daoist Qi Ning, Daoist Wu Wu Yunhan, Daoist Jin—come over here too."
He was calling three Immortal Kings; the sweet-voiced woman had the highest cultivation—Late-Stage Immortal King.
At this moment, the people on the other two ships were also stunned, staring at Ding Huan.
They hadn't expected Ding Huan to actually come out—and stand on the Gujia spaceship. How bold was this man?
Qi Ning didn't rush onto the Gujia spaceship; instead, she called from afar:
"Brother Jia, I already promised this friend—if he dared come out, I wouldn't lay a hand on him, and I wouldn't take his pot. Sigh… who made me promise so foolishly…"
Wu Wu Yunhan beside Qi Ning looked confused: "Elder Qi, this iron pot is very likely a Primordial…"
"Shut up. Who's in charge here—you or me?" Qi Ning shot a cold glance at her companion, her tone leaving no room for argument.
After rebuking her companion, Qi Ning turned to Ding Huan:
"Esteemed Daoist, may I know your name? I am Qi Ning of the Ten Thousand Realms Trading Association. Earlier, I assumed you wouldn't dare come out—I was blind and dismissive. I apologize."
These words left everyone utterly speechless.
For a Late-Stage Immortal King like Qi Ning to keep her word was understandable.
But to call herself a dog's eye just to honor her promise? That was far too self-degrading—it bordered on self-insult.
Was this necessary?
"Ding Huan." Ding Huan replied coolly—he suspected Qi Ning knew his identity.
If so, he'd ask her later whether she could obtain a Directional Crystal Ball for the Pangu Great World.
Qi Ning was from the Ten Thousand Realms Trading Association—he didn't believe they never traded in the Pangu Great World.
But since arriving in the Pangu Great World, he'd been running nonstop and had no time to pay attention to the organization.
Upon hearing "Ding Huan," Qi Ning's back instantly soaked with cold sweat—a chilling sensation shot from her soles to the crown of her head.
She'd only suspected before; now she was certain—who else but the Great Immortal Supervisor Ding Huan of the Pangu Great Wilderness would dare appear among Immortal Kings as a Luo Tian Xian?
As a trading association traversing the cosmic void, the Ten Thousand Realms Trading Association had far superior intelligence to Jia Buqin.
Jia Buqin still didn't know what had changed in the Pangu Great World; the Ten Thousand Realms Trading Association had known immediately—the Pangu Great World had undergone a cataclysmic transformation.
That was the five races in conflict: as the human race neared collapse, their Great Immortal Supervisor Ding Huan stepped forward and single-handedly swept clean the demon and beast clans, exterminating them utterly.
Worse still, when the divine race harmed his consort Qi Qi Xinyue, the Great Immortal Supervisor Ding Huan flew into a rage and personally led an army to invade the divine race.
He didn't just annihilate the divine race down to the last ant—he personally nailed the Divine Emperor Feng Huan outside the Heavenly Divine City and burned his soul with Dao flame.
As the universe's top trading association, how could they ignore such a terrifying figure?
In the Ten Thousand Realms Trading Association, the one person most forbidden to offend was the Great Immortal Supervisor Ding Huan of the human race in the Pangu Great World.
Earlier, Qi Ning hadn't thought much of it—until Ding Huan stepped out of his Cosmic Pot and landed on the Gujia spaceship, she suddenly realized this man resembled the Great Immortal Supervisor Ding Huan.
Now that she asked, it was confirmed.
Before the Great Immortal Supervisor of the human race, what did self-insulting words matter?
As long as the great Immortal Supervisor is willing, she, Qi Ning, is willing to kneel down and apologize.
The Jin family's flying ship only had one Immortal King, Jin Yuemang; he didn't know who Ding Huan was, but he was very clear about Qi Ning.
As a famous elder of the Myriad Realms Commerce Guild, Qi Ning would absolutely not shoot without a target.
This kind of language apologizing by insulting herself absolutely meant that the Ding Huan before them had an extraordinary background.
He quickly said, "Fellow Daoist Jia, I just said it too — as long as he dares to come out, I, Jin Yuemang, will withdraw from contending for this Universe Pot.
My cultivation may be ordinary, but I always keep my word."
Jin Yuemang keeps his word? In Jia Chong's heart there was only contempt and mockery — this man was the most back-and-forth of all.
He was certain Qi Ning had recognized who the other party was. He took a deep breath and was just about to send a voice transmission to Qi Ning, when he saw Ding Huan spread his hand and a long spear appear in his grasp.
"What business do you have, asking me to come over?" Ding Huan decided to test out just how strong this mid Immortal King was.
He was about to step into Immortal King himself, and wanted to test how his actual combat ability measured up.
"I am Jia Chong, external affairs elder of the ancient Jia family of Luxing Immortal Land." Jia Chong's tone had become much more polite — he was telling Ding Huan that his own background was no simple matter either.
Ding Huan couldn't be bothered with words. His violent Star Sky Domain swept out wildly, directly locking Jia Chong and the group of ancient Jia family cultivators behind him within it.
That vast, boundless aura crushed down overwhelmingly, and Jia Chong's face changed.
Is this person a Luotian Immortal? What Luotian Immortal has such powerful spatial suppression?
He hurriedly offered up his long saber, and at the same time his Immortal King Domain swept out as well.
At the same moment, Jia Jian, who stood at his side, also offered up his own magic treasure.
Ding Huan offered up the Samsara Spear, but did not make a move — he was checking the strength of his own domain.
His Star Sky Domain kept growing stronger. Although Jia Chong and Jia Jian's domains overlapped, they could not invade Ding Huan's domain in the slightest.
As Ding Huan's Star Sky Domain kept growing stronger, clear cracks appeared in the domains of Jia Chong and Jia Jian.
That was all there was to it. Ding Huan's heart settled completely — even joining forces, these two were no match for him.
Every one of his realms had three extra minor realms compared to others — this truly was not useless.
"Jia Jian, attack." The long saber in Jia Chong's hand rolled up a skyful of saber curtains that wrapped toward Ding Huan.
If they didn't attack now, Ding Huan's domain would completely collapse theirs; at that point, they wouldn't even have a chance to strike.
Without Jia Chong needing to speak, Jia Jian also offered up his own Tri-Point Blood Blade.
A river of blood blades dozens of zhang long appeared in the void, like a blood dragon pouncing toward Ding Huan.
It had to be said, although Jia Chong's cultivation was higher than Jia Jian's, Jia Jian's Blood Blade Dragon divine ability was a whole tier stronger than Jia Chong's saber curtain.
Ding Huan no longer held back. His Star Sky Domain swept out, and the Samsara Spear in his hand exploded into a skyful of spear-glow clusters.
Nine divine abilities — "Thousand Piled Snow."
The skyful of spear-glows this spear exploded into truly was shattered stones piercing the sky, frightful waves slamming the shore.
The billowing killing spear-glows transformed into one killing-momentum spear-glow cluster after another, blasting out.
Space instantly turned icy cold, and cluster after cluster of spear-glows slammed into Jia Chong's saber curtain and Jia Jian's blood-blade dragon.
Boom boom boom!
Dao rhymes exploded in the void. The flying ship, which had already had all its temperature stripped away by Ding Huan's Thousand Piled Snow divine ability, was now like an extreme cold cave.
Everything in space froze at this moment; the only thing wildly running rampant was those grim, killing spear-glow clusters.
Bang bang! Everything that stood in the way of these killing spear-glows was leveled flat by this icy killing momentum.
The saber curtain collapsed; the blood-blade dragon was torn apart under these killing spear-glows into segment after segment of broken dao rhyme.
The flying ship's restrictions and all protective formations were smoothed away beneath this grim divine ability.
Those Great Luo Immortals and Luotian Immortals, facing such might, didn't even have a chance to survive — they were all turned into ice shards.
