Chapter 881: So Pathetically Weak?

Gabelily's divine sense also swept over Yan Zhuo; in her urgency, she teleported straight over and reached out to pull Yan Zhuo out.

The one preparing to send Yan Zhuo in to block the Dao Yuan primordial energy was a Nine-Turn Saint.

Although Gabelily was a Six-Turn Saint, she cultivated the Origin Great Dao and had comprehended her own Origin Law.

Her strength far surpassed cultivators of the same rank.

After she took Yan Zhuo away, that Nine-Turn Saint finally reacted.

He had wanted to charge over, but upon sensing Ding Huan's presence, he forcibly stopped himself.

Almost at the same instant Gabelily took Yan Zhuo away, the man who was setting up the formation flags barked, "Prepare to block the erupting primordial energy…"

Before he could finish his sentence, he saw Gabelily, and Yan Zhuo being taken away by her.

"It's you? Gabelily of Blue Star Sect?" This man actually knew Gabelily, and immediately cried out in surprise.

He soon spotted Ding Huan: "Ding Huan? The one Qingsha Dao Ancestor has a warrant out for?"

Before this man even finished speaking, the rest of them had already surrounded Ding Huan and Gabelily in the middle.

As for Yijie, he was simply ignored.

"Baihe, you're still alive…" Though Yan Zhuo was in a daze, he still recognized Gabelily at a glance.

"Sect Master, I'm fine, you don't need to worry, Brother Ding will take you away." Gabelily could sense that Yan Zhuo's Dao rhythm was extremely scattered, in constant danger of his Dao collapsing and perishing at any moment.

Yan Zhuo sighed: "You shouldn't have come."

He closed his eyes; if these people hadn't forbidden him from self-destructing, he would not have lived until today.

No one could understand how terrifying the burst of violent primordial energy was after one's blocking Dao vein had been extracted.

He had had enough.

"That's right, I am Ding Huan." With a beckoning motion of his hand, the Dahan Yi Dao on his back appeared in his grip.

Of the four people opposite, aside from the one who recognized him being at the Fourth Step of the Great Dao, the remaining three included two ordinary Nine-Turn Saints and one at the Derivation Realm.

Ding Huan was still somewhat wary of the Fourth Step of the Great Dao.

It was truly that Yan Zhuo had been tormented by them beyond recognition.

Otherwise, with Yan Zhuo's strength at the Fifth Step of the Great Dao, he should have been able to easily wipe out these fellows.

"Haha…" The fellow at the Fourth Step of the Great Dao let out a laugh, and actually raised his hand to grab at Ding Huan.

In his eyes, Ding Huan was an ant among ants.

Although he couldn't make out Ding Huan's specific cultivation at the moment,

how high could the cultivation of an ant like Ding Huan, who had filled the Dao Rule River, possibly be?

With his strength at the Fourth Step of the Great Dao, no matter what cultivation Ding Huan had, he wouldn't take him seriously.

Ding Huan's domain swept out wildly, and the Dahan Yi Dao in his hand whipped up a curtain of blade shadows as he slashed.

The blade momentum condensed into a blade-space in almost the blink of an eye.

The blade curtain exploded, transforming into two streams of death blade qi.

Ding Huan didn't bother with those two Nine-Turn Saints at all, going straight for the Derivation Realm cultivator and that Fourth Step of the Great Dao.

The death blade qi whipped up by the blade momentum was crystal clear, wrapping around the four people opposite.

The Fourth Step of the Great Dao cultivator at the very front felt his entire body's blood frozen solid by Ding Huan's Great Dao.

As for his Dao rhythm, at this moment it was likewise in a frozen state.

★★￠o

At first he felt that dealing with a tiny ant like Ding Huan, a single primordial energy handprint would suffice; he had never intended to bring out a magic treasure.

Now he discovered that under Ding Huan's domain and blade momentum, his magic treasure simply couldn't be brought out.

At this moment, he seemed to have fallen into an unfamiliar cosmic void.

He hadn't touched a single one of the laws of heaven and earth in this cosmic void.

In this cosmic void, he couldn't even breathe, let alone struggle out.

"Boom!"

A spray of blood exploded; one Nine-Turn Saint, crushed by Ding Huan's domain and locked down by blade intent, could no longer bear it and simply burst apart into a mist of blood.

The other Nine-Turn Saint's eyes were filled with terror.

From the frozen Dao rhythm around him, it was clear that as long as Ding Huan didn't release his killing domain, it was only a matter of time before he was crushed into a mist of blood by such a domain.

At this moment, the oppressive weight of Ding Huan's domain space made everyone suffocate.

Red light flickered around the body of that Fourth Step of the Great Dao cultivator, and he finally managed to grab out a giant axe and slash.

Unfortunately, this axe didn't even unleash one-tenth of his full strength.

Boom!

The axe shadow shattered like a bubble beneath the Dahan Yi Dao qi.

"Pfft!"

A trail of blood ran down from between the brows of this Fourth Step of the Great Dao cultivator, spattering a spray of blood mist.

If not for that axe of his, this slash from Ding Huan would have split him clean in two.

As if responding to that Fourth Step of the Great Dao, that Derivation

Realm cultivator was torn in half by Ding Huan's slash.

Blood mist exploded.

The two seemed to have been jolted awake by Ding Huan's slash, and restored their physical bodies at the first instant.

At least on the surface they had recovered, looking only a little paler in the face.

Ding Huan was also feeling his Dahan Yi Dao momentum with surprise.

Was his Fourth Seal — Life and Death — really this powerful?

That's not right...

Even if the Life-Death Blade Seal really is that powerful, he'd still have to wait until the blade seal is fully deployed, right?

He's only just begun, and the other side is already pinned down?

"Stop! I'm one of Dao Ancestor Qingsha's people. If you dare touch me, you'll die without a burial place…"

While Ding Huan was still in shock, that Great Dao Fourth Step cultivator finally broke free of Ding Huan's domain and reached out to summon his own magic treasure again.

Ding Huan ignored the fellow, and the Calamity-Breaking Blade swept up another curtain of blade shadows.

This time it was aimed specifically at that Great Dao Fourth Step.

He felt these people were far too weak; there was simply no need to deploy the full Life-Death Seal.

The Calamity-Breaking Blade slashed through, and a burst of blood mist exploded.

That Great Dao Fourth Step was torn into scraps by Ding Huan's Calamity-Breaking Blade.

At the same moment, a small world was ripped open by Ding Huan, and he reached in and snatched away a pile of things.

Among them were actually eleven dao veins.

This fellow really was the administrator of this place—the dao veins were all in his hands.

"Thud!"

Because Ding Huan had withdrawn his domain, that Nine-Turn Saint fell to the ground with a thud, coughing up great mouthfuls of blood mist.

If Ding Huan had withdrawn that terrifying killing domain even a moment later, he figured he would have ended up like the previous Nine-Turn Saint—crushed into bloody scraps.

Seeing Ding Huan's gaze turn toward him, the Nine-Turn Saint sitting on the ground hurriedly said, "Senior, this junior's world… Senior…"

But he had only uttered a few words before Ding Huan slapped him into a burst of blood mist.

There wasn't anything good in this fellow's world, but since he'd dared to use Yan Zhuo to plug the dao vein and unleash its primal energy, he had to be prepared to be killed.

Even though it was a crushing victory, Ding Huan was still puzzled.

He didn't think a Great Dao Fourth Step would be this weak.

In the last cultivator's eyes, a Boundary-Breaking Realm cultivator, despair flickered—he knew that no matter what he did, it would be futile.

He felt Ding Huan's strength was simply far too terrifying.

Just now, when Ding Huan's domain locked down the few of them, he couldn't even struggle.

When Ding Huan's blade cleaved him open, he had seemingly healed on the surface, but his dao heart had long since been seized.

Could Ding Huan also be an existence at the Dao Ancestor level?

"Who told Sect Leader Yan to use his own Great Dao to plug the dao vein and unleash its primal energy?" Ding Huan looked at the Boundary-Breaking Realm cultivator before him, his tone somewhat cold.

"It was Dao Ancestor Qingsha… the Yu Xing you just killed was Dao Ancestor Qingsha's…"

As if some taboo existed, the Boundary-Breaking Realm cultivator dared not continue once he reached this point.

Ding Huan gave a cold snort: "What is it?"

"Male companion…" The Boundary-Breaking Realm cultivator gritted his teeth and still said it.

He was about to be killed anyway—what was there left to worry about?

Ding Huan understood at once. No wonder this Yu Xing was digging dao veins back here—this was giving Yu Xing a chance to get rich.

The rest were either fighting the Tianmeng Clan cultivators up front or seizing dao veins.

And Yu Xing hid in the back digging dao veins, and even had Yan Zhuo come plug the violent primal energy the dao veins unleashed.

"There aren't any Tianmeng Clan people here, right? Why would you still need someone to plug the dao vein's primal energy?"

The Boundary-Breaking Realm cultivator hurriedly said:

"There are. Tianmeng Clan cultivators are spread across virtually the entire Ten Thousand Dao Mountain Range. They lurk everywhere in the Ten Thousand Dao Mountain Range, searching for and fighting over dao veins. Not only that, they also slaughter the human cultivators in the Ten Thousand Dao Mountain Range..

This place is far from where the humans and Tianmeng Clan are fighting, so there are fewer Tianmeng Clan people here, but anyone who is here is a powerhouse."

Ding Huan sneered. Dao Ancestor Qingsha letting Yu Xing hide behind others and get rich was one thing.

She even had to arrange a Great Dao Fifth Step to plug the dao vein's primal energy for Yu Xing.

Seeing there was nothing more to ask, Ding Huan said flatly, "Open your world and go self-destruct."

"Yes." The Boundary-Breaking Realm cultivator hurriedly opened up his own world.

After Ding Huan swept away the things in his world, he chose to self-destruct without Ding Huan having to remind him.

Anyone who could stay by Yu Xing's side was a trusted confidant of Dao Ancestor Qingsha.

He had exposed the filthy dealings between Yu Xing and Dao Ancestor Qingsha—even if Ding Huan didn't kill him, Dao Ancestor Qingsha wouldn't let him off.

"Yijie, go pull that dao vein out." Ding Huan vaguely sensed someone spying nearby, yet he couldn't pinpoint exactly where the other party was.

Where they were.

He simply let Yijie go pull the dao vein while he made his move.

Anyone hiding nearby to observe must be a Tianmeng Clan cultivator.

He'd just killed Yu Xing, that Great Dao Fourth Step, and it felt as fake as a Great Dao Fourth Step could be.

Since there were Tianmeng Clan cultivators around, he might as well test how strong the Tianmeng Clan actually was.

So Ding Huan didn't set up any Spirit-Locking Divine Arrays at all.

"Don't worry, Lord Huan, leave it to me." Yijie was overjoyed—it really hadn't expected to land such a windfall.

A message landed in Ding Huan's hand: Ling Zhuzhen had arrived at Ten Thousand Dao City.

Ding Huan told Ling Zhuzhen to wait for him at Ten Thousand Dao City; he was on his way.

Yijie showed no caution at all in pulling the dao vein. A few formation flags were tossed down by it, and then a high-grade dao vein was forcibly ripped out just like that.

When pulling dao veins here, if you're a bit careful, the commotion from the unleashed primal energy is a little smaller.

With an action like Yijie's, the instant the dao vein was pulled out, a burst of dao-vein primal energy thick with violent aura shot straight into the sky.

Bai Mang was mixed with a rumble of thunderous sound.

Dense heaven and earth primal energy exploded.

At the same instant, a jet-black shadow shot toward Yijie.

Yijie couldn't react in the slightest.

However, this place had long been inscribed with defensive restrictions by Ding Huan, and combined with Ding Huan's domain, before this shadow could even charge to Yijie's front, another boom erupted in the void.

Crack!

The defensive restriction Ding Huan had set up was shattered, and even Ding Huan's domain was torn open.

Ding Huan stared in astonishment at the fellow standing before him.

This fellow's strength was several times greater than Yu Xing's, and then some.

This was a black fellow standing well over two meters tall.

His thick, massive legs made one feel he didn't look like a human at all.

Even calling him a human-faced beast-body wouldn't be quite apt.

Or rather, this fellow's body had evolved to be somewhat human-like.

The hair on his head was coarse and long, casually tied up and hanging down over his back, which resembled that of a great bear.

Ding Huan was rather speechless — he could understand the Tianmeng Clan sending someone to infiltrate the human side's Ten Thousand Dao Mountain Range.

But sending such a tall, burly man — is that called hiding?
