Chapter 650: Reincarnation Swamp
Dao Ruins had secluded, uninhabited places everywhere, but this place was truly unsuitable for cultivation.
Because the divine spiritual energy in Dao Ruins was mottled, and the rules of heaven and earth were blurred.
Wen Jiyue didn't want to stay here and go into closed-door cultivation with Ding Huan, but she had high emotional intelligence.
Toward the people she valued, whether on the surface or otherwise, she would always give them full face.
She had long since decided to accompany Ding Huan in closed-door cultivation for one year.
Regardless of the outcome, she would tell Ding Huan that her harvest had been enormous, and then hurry away.
As for the matter of searching for her father, Wen Jiyue no longer held any hope; she knew her father had very likely perished in some unknown corner.
Ding Huan helping her advance to World God was a favor far too great.

The reason he didn't use the Cosmic Cauldron was that Ding Huan was worried about missing some good things along the way.
This was solid, genuine help for her.
To speak honestly, although the Grand Divination Art he cultivated belonged to the scroll's master.
No wonder Ding Huan wanted her to cultivate together; cultivating under such dense divine spiritual energy doubled the result with half the effort.
With his comprehension of the heavenly and earthly Dao from the Grand Cosmos Art, as long as there was a Life-World God Pill, Wen Jiyue cultivating under his comprehension to the peak of Divine Monarch would have no major issue advancing to World God.
However, he hadn't found a single Fate Stone.
At this moment, Wen Jiyue thoroughly understood the meaning of Ding Huan's invitation to go into closed-door cultivation together.
Dense divine spiritual energy is a vital prerequisite for cultivation, but there's another precondition for progress in cultivation: being able to clearly comprehend the heavenly and earthly Dao one needs.
At this moment, Wen Jiyue's Tribulation Crossing had ended; World God Level One.
In this place called Dao Ruins, good things were not few.
They were all at the edge of the swamp; none of them dared to enter the depths of the swamp.
Truly formidable. She remembered that the reason Ding Huan stayed at Qianlei Mountain was precisely the lack of divine crystals and cultivation resources.
When that dense divine spiritual energy swept over, she was somewhat startled.
Wen Jiyue knew that the reason her advancement grew slower and slower later on was that her foundation had almost been fully drawn out during this period.
The male cultivator chuckled: "This stretch of swamp is called Dao Ruins Reincarnation Swamp. Not to mention entering the depths of the swamp—even at the edge here, one careless mistake will send you off to reincarnate. Be careful."
"Thank you!"
It wasn't at all that after taking the divine spiritual vein, he felt uneasy in his heart and wanted to seek a bit of psychological comfort.
All the soil was gray, carrying a broken Dao-rhyme aura.
Moreover, Ding Huan knew that his comprehension of the great Dao techniques and the rules of heaven and earth during his cultivation would affect the comprehension of heavenly and earthly Dao by those cultivating beside him.
What she could do was merely find her father's remains.
After another half-month of urgent flight, Ding Huan stopped once more.
Once she reached World God, she could return to the Green Thunder Leishendao Sect to reorganize the sect.
Grateful in her heart, Wen Jiyue no longer wasted time and began circulating the Green Thunder Dao Art.
How long had it been since leaving the Green Thunder Leishendao Sect? Ding Huan casually took out so many divine crystals, showing that capable people are capable wherever they are.
Yet clearly this wasn't the end. Three months later, Divine Monarch Level Eight; nine months later, Divine Monarch Level Nine…
In just a single short day, she was already a Divine Monarch Level Seven cultivator.
Ding Huan could only divine.
According to the jade slip introducing Dao Ruins that he had purchased, places where Fate Stones generally appeared all had a kind of great Dao rule fluctuation.
Seeing Ding Huan produce hundreds of thousands of high-grade immortal crystals in such a short time, Wen Jiyue was secretly shocked in her heart.
Half a day later, Ding Huan chose a vague direction and continued forward.
It had only been one day?
Added to the fact that Ding Huan's grasp of Reverse-Knowing the Future could only be called superficial, finding even a vague direction was already luck upon luck.
The jade slip introduction said: after reaching Stone Mountain, walk along the white-earth direction; no need to change direction midway.
When Ding Huan began cultivating, Wen Jiyue was still thinking about how to help Ding Huan find a divine clover-lotus.
After parting from Wen Jiyue, Ding Huan immediately headed toward the location where the divine clover-lotus might be.
Ding Huan sensed Wen Jiyue setting up defensive arrays on the perimeter, preparing to advance to World God, and he paid it no mind.
One month later, Ding Huan stopped his urgent flight; before him stood a Stone Mountain.
It seemed he hadn't searched in the wrong place.
"Senior Sister Jiyue, congratulations on advancing to World God." Ding Huan drew away the mid-grade divine spiritual vein; he didn't plan to continue closed-door cultivation here.
Having said that, he took out a jade slip and tossed it to Ding Huan: "You'll know once you look at this."
Logically speaking, Dao Ruins is the cosmic void at the edge of the God Realm; cosmic star-continents haven't yet fully formed, so water shouldn't exist.
The Grand Divination Art had been severed by him; now his divination could only rely on the Reverse-Knowing the Future divine ability within the Tiangang Dao Technique.
Yet he had seen water right here.
Even the Jiuyueshen Sect that Feng Baiqing mentioned couldn't hold back a true dragon like Ding Huan.
Wen Jiyue murmured to herself, no longer daring to waste a single moment, madly circulating the Green Thunder Dao Technique to raise her cultivation.
Otherwise, even as the Sect Master's daughter, she wouldn't qualify to go back and compete for the position of Sect Master of the Green Thunder Leishendao Sect. If the Green Thunder Leishendao Sect didn't restrict the Sect Master's seat to disciples of the Green Thunder lineage, Wen Jiyue would absolutely want to invite Ding Huan to become the Sect Master of the Green Thunder Leishendao Sect.
The divine clover-lotus resembles a lotus flower in appearance; it is originally a divine spiritual plant and should only grow in places with water.
Wen Jiyue easily stepped into Divine Monarch Level Seven, reaching the late Divine Monarch stage.
Along the way, Ding Huan did encounter a few such places. It's just that the divine clover-lotus is very hard to obtain; even after finding the place, one still has to rely on luck.
She had spent several years hovering at Divine Monarch Level Six.
The male cultivator looked Ding Huan over in puzzlement before saying: "Coming here is naturally to look for the divine clover-lotus?"
After walking a while, indeed, there were people here.
Ding Huan's cultivation technique was undoubtedly supreme; every insight he gained into the cosmic rules during its cultivation was crystal clear.
Ding Huan approached a slightly chubby male cultivator, bowed, and asked: "Friend, are you searching for Shenmu Lotus?"
Looking at Ding Huan, who was still in seclusion, Wen Jiyue decided to attempt Tribulation Crossing to become a World God.
But the commotion from her father's cultivation didn't seem this intense…
According to the jade slip provided by Feng Baiqing, there was indeed a stone mountain along the path to where Shenmu Lotus appeared.
Besides Shenmu Lotus, the most valuable thing was Qi Yun Stone.
He hadn't found Qi Yun Stone, and had wasted a lot of time.
"Young Brother Ding, if you find life outside unsatisfying, Leishendao Sect will always keep its door open for you." Wen Jiyue's tone was deeply sincere.
As long as you don't change direction, you can find where Shenmu Lotus grows.
Afterward, whenever Ding Huan encountered places with fluctuations of cosmic rules, he couldn't be bothered to stop.
Ding Huan found a patch of gray hills, where he not only set up the Hidden Spirit Divine Array and a Defensive Divine Array, but also implanted a mid-grade Spirit Vein and hundreds of thousands of top-grade Immortal Crystals.
He was greatly astonished.
But the depth and level of the Great Calculation Art was undoubtedly far superior to Foreseeing the Reverse Future.
While Wen Jiyue was undergoing Tribulation Crossing, Ding Huan remained in seclusion.
Ding Huan felt he should return the bow.
She understood clearly: Leishendao Sect was not Ding Huan's true home.
This cultivation commotion? Wen Jiyue had cultivated alongside her father, who was a being who had nearly stepped into the Divine King realm.
"We help each other. I must also venture deeper into the Dao Ruins to seek cultivation resources. Sister Jiyue, let us part here."
"Young Brother Ding, thank you. Without you, I wouldn't know when—perhaps never—I'd have been able to ascend to World God." Wen Jiyue bowed deeply to Ding Huan with genuine gratitude.
The cosmic rules were utterly clear; the Thunder Rule could be summoned at will.
His divine sense swept outward, and at its edges, several figures flickered.
This wasn't cultivation—this was directly elevating his realm.
After reaching the peak of Divine Lord Ninth Layer, because his understanding of cosmic Dao principles was so clear, Wen Jiyue always felt there must be a Tenth Layer beyond the Ninth.
Under his divine sense, he saw at least seven or eight people.
Not only were there people, but not just one or two.
He watched Wen Jiyue's first Lei Jie; though powerful, it posed no lethal threat to her.
After all, Wen Jiyue cultivated a Thunder-based technique, giving her a natural advantage against Lei Jie.
After entering the Dao Ruins, this was the first time he saw water.
Wen Jiyue forcibly suppressed her inner excitement and continued cultivating.
One and a half years later, she reached the peak of Divine Lord.
Though he had continuously cultivated and contemplated this divine art, so far he had only learned its superficial aspects.
Added to this being the Dao Ruins, even though the Spirit Qi Ding Huan swept over was so thick it seemed solid, Wen Jiyue never expected to make great progress within a year.
She had no technique, but she felt she was ready to attempt Tribulation Crossing to become a World God.
"Why not enter the deeper marsh?" Ding Huan asked, puzzled.
The divine pills for Tribulation Crossing to World God and other necessities were already prepared; she simply hadn't expected to need them in one and a half years.
Ding Huan swept his divine sense around, circled the stone mountain once more, but saw no white soil.
Yet all these people remained along the edge of the marsh; only a few used their wooden spirit-boat artifacts to enter the marsh.
Not just water—it was a marshland.
Sitting on the Cosmic Cauldron, you'd miss too many things.
Thick Spirit Qi and clear Thunder Source Dao principles poured down like rain; because his comprehension was rapid, his absorption of cosmic Spirit Qi during the Zhou Tian process was also swift.
Because he had a Thunder Spirit Root, his cultivation progress was much slower than ordinary cultivators.
Rather, her father's absorption of Spirit Qi during cultivation wasn't nearly this intense—Ding Huan seemed to be using some method to extract Spirit Qi directly from the Spirit Vein.
When Wen Jiyue began her first Zhou Tian, she was stunned.
He had guessed that the marsh's depths were likely no ordinary place.
Three days later, Ding Huan burst into Divine God Seventh Layer and ceased cultivation.
Foreseeing the Reverse Future to locate treasures was inherently vague.
She had a Thunder Spirit Root and absorbed Thunder Dao principles during cultivation.
Ding Huan swept his divine sense into the jade slip; it described the Dao Ruins' Cycle Marsh, which contained not only Shenmu Lotus but other treasures as well.
Qi Yun Stone had appeared there too.
But the Cycle Marsh was indeed dangerous—carelessness could lead to being swallowed by the marsh.
People vanished here every day.
