Chapter 795: The Blue Star Academy Is Gone

~10 min read 1,881 words

Ding Huan sent forth a cosmic principle of the Dunyi Divine Realm, activating the Break-Position Talisman.

A teleportation glow surged up; Ding Huan paid no heed to where the Break-Position Talisman would send him, instead keeping his eyes fixed on Qian Yao.

Ever since this woman said she wanted to join him in searching for Xing Jia and Quan, he knew her true purpose was him.

More precisely, it was the Nine Opening Heaven Bamboo stalks on his person.

Sure enough, as soon as the Break-Position Talisman activated, Qian Yao moved to cause trouble.

But the Break-Position Talisman was not a Break-Realm Talisman.

Once this talisman triggered its teleportation rules, Qian Yao could not move an inch.

So Qian Yao merely leaned her body slightly toward Ding Huan, then froze in place.

Before such overwhelming rule transformation, Qian Yao had no capacity to act.

She sighed inwardly—her thinking still clung to the level of an Immortal Eternal Sage.

In truth, she was merely a Seventh-Transformation Sage now.

When teleportation ended, the three did not appear in the void, but landed on a desolate wasteland.

"Is this where the Chaos retreated?" Qian Yao exclaimed in surprise, then immediately scanned the layers of seals with her divine sense.

Clearly, the sealed area within was the Chaos zone.

This place resembled the Great Universe in some ways.

Though the Great Universe was boundless, the area covered by Chaos was even vaster.

The portion of the Great Universe where humans lived amounted to less than a millionth—or even a billionth—of the Chaos zone.

Even so, Eighth-Transformation Sages in the Great Universe could stir not the slightest ripple.

"Perfect place," Min Yuan exclaimed, rubbing his hands eagerly; he felt he could ascend to the Fifth-Transformation Sage realm here.

Before Ding Huan could answer, Qian Yao instantly understood—this was the Dunyi Divine Realm, Quan's domain.

Quan, as the Dao Ancestor of the Dunyi Divine Realm, was said to reside in a realm left behind after Chaos retreated.

If properly developed, this place was indeed an excellent location.

The only pity was that it was a low-tier universe plane, with inferior cosmic principles.

But what truly stunned Qian Yao was that Ding Huan had been able to send forth a cosmic principle of the Dunyi Divine Realm, directly transporting them into the Dunyi Divine Realm itself via the Break-Position Talisman.

You know, if the realm-breaking talisman can take them to the void outside the Primordial Divine Realm, that would already be quite remarkable.

The only explanation for Ding Huan using the Break-Position Talisman to transport them to the void surrounding the Dunyi Divine Realm was that his understanding of cosmic principles had reached a terrifying level.

The clearer the Dunyi Divine Realm's cosmic principle Ding Huan sent forth, the more accurately the Break-Position Talisman would teleport them.

"Let's go to the Blue Star Academy now…"

As Ding Huan spoke, he sent out two messages—to Xing Jia and Elder Yi Shang.

He arranged to meet Elder Yi Shang and Xing Jia outside the Blue Star Academy.

After sending the messages, Ding Huan prepared to summon the Cosmic Cauldron.

Jia Baihe had been taken away by Elder Yi Shang and was likely safe, but before finding Jia Baihe, he still felt some unease.

"Ride my Wind-Rider—it's faster."

Before Ding Huan could summon the Cosmic Cauldron, Qian Yao activated her flying treasure first—the Wind-Rider Cart.

Once Ding Huan stepped into her flying treasure, he would be entirely at her mercy.

Ding Huan glanced at the Wind-Rider Cart; his strength was already inferior to Qian Yao's.

No matter how confident he was, he would never enter her flying treasure.

"Your flying treasure is too slow—use mine instead."

Saying this, Ding Huan summoned the Cosmic Cauldron.

Qian Yao was about to retort, but froze when she saw the Cosmic Cauldron.

She had never seen the Cosmic Cauldron before, but she knew value—this pot Ding Huan summoned was unquestionably a primordial treasure of creation.

Even as a primordial treasure, the Cosmic Cauldron was several tiers superior to her Wind-Rider Cart.

Seeing Min Yuan and Ding Huan both boarding the Cosmic Cauldron, Qian Yao hesitated, then retracted her own flying treasure and climbed aboard.

She believed that even if Ding Huan tried to act on the Cosmic Cauldron, she could still escape.

Ding Huan had no intention of acting on the Cosmic Cauldron; once activated, it vanished instantly from its original location.

Feeling the speed of the Cosmic Cauldron, Qian Yao had to admit—her Wind-Rider was vastly inferior.

No good—she wanted the Nine Opening Heaven Bamboo stalks, and she wanted this pot too.

But she couldn't openly seize them; his array techniques were too strong—any move here would be detected.

She needed to find an opportunity to subdue Ding Huan.

"My fellow cultivators, I've already introduced myself. Since we're cooperating now, shouldn't you two introduce yourselves too?"

Qian Yao smiled sweetly at Ding Huan; though her words included Min Yuan, in her eyes, Min Yuan was merely a non-entity.

Before Ding Huan could speak, Min Yuan snorted:

"Qian Yao, this is Ding Huan, the Sect Master of the Blue Star Academy. I am Grand Sage Min Yuan, the Supreme Elder of the Blue Star Academy.

I only hope your offer of cooperation is sincere—otherwise, Qian Yao, you will deeply regret it."

Min Yuan's cultivation level was merely average compared to Qian Yao's.

But how many things had Min Yuan experienced?

He could vaguely guess Qian Yao's intent—it held no good will.

He believed even he could sense it; Ding Huan surely could not miss it, so he didn't warn Ding Huan.

If Ding Huan failed to see through her, then Min Yuan would leave immediately.

He had come to pledge allegiance to Ding Huan, not to act as his nanny.

Of course, he could still remind him of minor issues.

The Cosmic Pot was moving too fast, and Ding Huan was worried about Jia Baihe.

Added to that, Ding Huan had entered the Second Transformation Saint Realm; what once took days now took only one day—the Cosmic Pot halted outside the Blue Star Academy.

The four Dao-character characters "Blue Star Academy" had long vanished.

In their place were three larger Dao-character words: Holy Symbol Dao.

Ding Huan's expression was cold.

He had previously suspected Quan was behind this, after all, Quan's split soul had been interrupted by him during the refinement of the Eternal Symbol.

Now that the Eternal Symbol was his, Quan's revenge was possible.

Seeing the Blue Star Academy gone, replaced by the words "Holy Symbol Dao."

Ding Huan guessed it was very likely Yue Jinya had returned.

If the other sect masters of Holy Symbol Dao were responsible, they could never threaten Xing Jia or Elder Yi Shang.

Even if Xing Jia's power had not fully recovered, he had once been a Dao Ancestor.

No ordinary person could possibly control Xing Jia.

Only someone like Yue Jinya, who could stand on equal footing with a Dao Ancestor, could threaten Xing Jia.

"Lord Ding?" A surprised voice rang out.

Following the source of the voice, Ding Huan saw a purple-faced man.

The man carried himself with dignity, gazing at him with clear delight.

His cultivation was at the late Stage of Union Spirit…

No, Ding Huan's sensitivity to the Dao principles of heaven and earth surpassed everyone else's.

Moreover, he had spent time in Dunyi Divine Realm and trained there.

He did not even need his divine sense to detect the hidden cultivation level of this purple-faced cultivator.

This man might be a Fourth Transformation Saint no weaker than Min Yuan.

Furthermore, the great Dao technique he cultivated carried an aura of origin—his strength likely surpassed Min Yuan's.

"You know me?" Ding Huan asked, his tone gentle.

The purple-faced man immediately bowed deeply:

"Lord, my name is Kua Chen, an external affairs elder of the Blue Star Academy. I joined the sect after you left Dunyi Divine Realm, so you never met me."

"Lord, I feel this guy is not ordinary," Min Yuan whispered to Ding Huan.

He didn't know why Kua Chen was unusual, nor could he discern Kua Chen's true cultivation level.

But Min Yuan had always relied on instinct—he sensed Kua Chen was unusual, nothing more.

"The Blue Star Academy has been seized by Holy Symbol Dao—why are you still here?" Ding Huan asked, puzzled, staring at Kua Chen.

Kua Chen's eyes flashed with anger, but it vanished in an instant:

"I ascended within the Blue Star Academy; its cultivation atmosphere was the best I've ever experienced. Whether it was the Supreme Elders or the First Vice Sect Master, none ever neglected us.

Holy Symbol Dao, relying on their ancestral return and overwhelming strength, severely injured Vice Sect Master Yi and seized our Blue Star Academy—I cannot swallow this humiliation."

He spoke at length but never explained why he remained here.

Ding Huan sneered inwardly—was this man trying to make him guess that Kua Chen, unable to swallow his humiliation, was hiding here to ambush a few Holy Symbol Dao members?

Ding Huan did not ask, because the space subtly rippled, and another figure appeared before him.

"Old Jia, your power hasn't improved much," Ding Huan said, seeing it was Xing Jia—now at the First Transformation Saint Realm.

No wonder he dared not speak freely—his cultivation was still weaker than Ding Huan's.

Xing Jia smiled awkwardly: "Brother Ding, you've surely achieved Second Transformation, right…"

He felt that if he didn't hurry, soon Ding Huan could crush him effortlessly.

"You're really Xing Jia, the Dao Ancestor?" Qian Yao stared in shock, her face filled with disbelief.

For a Dao Ancestor to survive was normal—but not in Dunyi Divine Realm.

Every Dao Ancestor had their own domain; under the destruction of cosmic great calamities, even if they fled, perished, or reincarnated…

They would always choose their own world.

If she remembered correctly, Xing Jia was the Dao Ancestor of Mo Ru Divine Realm.

Had Mo Ru World also collapsed?

Otherwise, why would Xing Jia appear in Quan's Dunyi Divine Realm?

"You're… Elder Qian Yao?" Xing Jia recognized her, asking in disbelief.

Though he was a Dao Ancestor, Qian Yao's status was no lower than his.

Di Lan, another Dao Ancestor, held far higher status than him, and Qian Yao was Di Lan's cherished possession.

Di Lan was notoriously protective—he would never let Qian Yao suffer even a single slight.

Qian Yao had originally planned to bow in greeting.

But seeing Xing Jia's cultivation was far beneath hers, and that he seemed truly Ding Huan's subordinate, she looked down on him.

After recognizing her, Qian Yao calmed: "Dao Ancestor Xing Jia, I came here because I have matters to discuss with you."

"Of course, of course—is Elder Di Lan well?" Xing Jia responded quickly.

He had also sensed Qian Yao's formidable power.

Hearing Xing Jia mention Di Lan, Qian Yao's expression turned icy.

Xing Jia cursed inwardly and swiftly changed the subject: "What matter did Elder Qian Yao wish to discuss with me?"

Ding Huan waved his hand: "We'll discuss that later. Old Jia—who destroyed the Blue Star Academy? Where is Elder Yi Shang?"

He did not ask directly about Jia Baihe—finding Elder Yi Shang meant finding Jia Baihe.

(Good evening, Dao friend!)
