Post-Mythical Era: I don't want to die in the third reincarnation
Chapter 927 - 920: The Secret of the Chaos Treasure
Che Hongzi's face turned cold. Just because he's keeping a low profile now doesn't mean he's easy to bully.
Back in the Great Universe, though his cultivation was low, who didn't show him some respect at Jinluo Tower?
Ding Huan didn't give him any face at all, did Ding Huan think Che Hongzi was easy to bully?
Che Hongzi's Dao Rhythm surged, and his domain roared towards Ding Huan, covering the skies.
The Breaking Tribulation Blade behind Ding Huan soared into the sky, the blade force gathering wildly, but Ding Huan punched out instead.
This is his territory, even if it's not within the Blue Star Divine Land, it's still his ground.
Who does Che Hongzi think he is?
Daring to use a domain to bind him on his own territory?
Boom!
The clash of their domains instantly tore apart the Heaven and Earth Rules of the Void Square on the Blue Star Divine Land.
Void fissures were ripped open one after another.
Endless Void Blade Light burst out, ravaging the entire Void Square.
Ding Huan was furious, quickly binding the rampaging blade lights on the Void Square within his domain, also preventing the Space Rules from further shattering.
Fighting elsewhere, he wouldn't care about the damage no matter how great.
But this is his place, the Void Square of the Blue Star Divine Land, if it were destroyed beyond recognition, where the hell would he set up a barrier?
The Breaking Tribulation Blade swept up countless Sword Lights and struck towards Che Hongzi.
The deathly aura within the Sword Light almost condensed into substance.
With this move from Ding Huan, Che Hongzi realized Ding Huan was not inferior to him in the slightest.
A golden Rest Building was summoned by him, directly blocking Ding Huan's Breaking Tribulation Blade Force.
Boom! Crack!
Ding Huan's punch tore open Che Hongzi's domain.
The sea of Sword Lights brought up by the Breaking Tribulation Blade collided with Che Hongzi's Rest Building once again.
No matter how careful Ding Huan was, the Heaven and Earth Rules of the Void Square still showed signs of collapsing.
The rules were torn apart, the laws shattered.
Beneath the shattered laws was an endless void black hole.
Ding Huan was furious, if he didn't kill Jinluo Tower today, he would let down the hard work he had put into repairing the Blue Star Divine Land.
"Mr. Ding, I have no intention of fighting you. Do you know about the Great Universe? That's the real high-level universe, and back then I was in the Great Universe too..."
Ding Huan sneered coldly, interrupting Che Hongzi's words, "Is the Great Universe impressive? I've met Jing Xizhen, Ling Zhuzhen, and Xing Ga.
One called Han was struck by me, and another called Qu Beige was killed by me.
Some self-proclaimed Dao Ancestor named Quan who I chastised hasn't dared to show up until now.
Not long ago, I even kicked a guy named Huan, telling him that his cultivation technique couldn't be called the Great Universe Technique anymore.
So which nook of the Great Universe did you crawl out from? Are you stronger than them? Tell me, what amazing things have you done."
Che Hongzi was stunned.
What had he done?
That didn't matter, what mattered was that those people Ding Huan mentioned, even the weakest was stronger than him.
Either Dao Ancestor or Heavenly Emperor, or someone even Dao Ancestors were wary of.
How was he supposed to handle that?
Che Hongzi was well-known in the Great Universe, but that was because he ran Rest Building.
His Dao was Jinluo Tower.
"Mr. Ding, this..."
Che Hongzi was at a loss for words.
The people you mentioned, Ding Huan, I can't compare to any of them, what can I say?
He vaguely felt that Ding Huan wasn't lying to him.
"Since you have nothing to say, then die." Ding Huan's domain suddenly intensified, the shadow of the Eternal God Wheel already hovering in the void.
Even if it meant destroying and rebuilding the Void Square of the Blue Star Divine Land, he would still kill Che Hongzi.
Che Hongzi was no match for Ding Huan, and as the shadow of the Eternal God Wheel was activated, a sense of despair surged within Che Hongzi.
He knew he was doomed.
He wasn't good at fighting in the first place, and now that he encountered Ding Huan, who seemed like a battle madman, how could he still fight?
But how did Ding Huan come by the Eternal God Wheel? It's supposed to be the treasure of the Eternal God Saint.
Che Hongzi hadn't actively attacked Ding Huan; his Jinluo Tower merely protected the space he occupied, and he said with utmost sincerity:
"Mr. Ding, I can provide you with some information, and if you find it valuable, please spare my life.
I would even swear an oath, never to oppose you for eternity and never to set foot in this cosmic plane for eternity."
He refrained from fighting because he knew he couldn't beat Ding Huan.
He pleaded for mercy before they were deep into enmity with Ding Huan.
Once the fight started and the grudge was too deep, begging for mercy would be meaningless.
Che Hongzi understood this principle after years of running Rest Building.
Ding Huan's Breaking Tribulation Blade hovered in the void, continually accumulating Sword Force.
The Breaking Tribulation Blade was for offense, the Eternal God Wheel for restraint.
Regardless of whether Che Hongzi chose to resist or not, escaping from his territory was utterly impossible.
Without waiting for Ding Huan to respond, Che Hongzi continued to speak:
"Mr. Ding, the Eternal God Wheel is the magical treasure of the Eternal God Saint, reputed as one of the top ten chaos treasures.
In the vastness, there are many chaos treasures, but each one that ranks among the top ten has the power to obliterate the heavens and earth.
Mr. Ding, do you believe the Eternal God Saint already knows his treasure has been taken or even refined?"
Ding Huan was taken aback; of course, this was natural.
The Eternal God Wheel previously belonged to the Eternal God Saint, who transformed it into his own, and refined the Eternal God Wheel. How could the Eternal God Saint possibly be unaware?
"You are mistaken, this treasure is not the Eternal God Saint's anymore," Ding Huan, though not understanding Che Hongzi's meaning, retorted.
Having run the Rest Building for so many years and having hosted countless powerful figures, Che Hongzi naturally understood the implications of Ding Huan's words.
The ownership of a supreme treasure is clear, which is a very important point.
"Mr. Ding, you may not have understood my meaning. What I mean is that a chaos treasure like the Eternal God Wheel typically has only one owner."
"What are you trying to express?" Ding Huan slightly furrowed his brow.
He admits that the first owner of the Eternal God Wheel was the Eternal God Saint.
But the loss of the Eternal God Wheel by the Eternal God Saint does not mean the Eternal God Wheel is still his.
Currently, the Eternal God Wheel belongs to him, Ding Huan.
Moreover, he has refined the Eternal God Wheel several times.
He has even imprinted his own Dao thought on the Eternal God Wheel; could it be that the Eternal God Saint could still snatch it back?
Furthermore, every time he advances in cultivation, he re-refines the Eternal God Wheel.
Now he is almost certain that there is no presence of the Eternal God Saint's Dao thought on the Eternal God Wheel.
"What I want to express is that your Eternal God Wheel belongs to you now, but once the Eternal God Saint appears, the Eternal God Wheel will change hands immediately and become his treasure.
Such a supreme treasure, once it devours its master during a fight, you surely know how serious the consequences are, Mr. Ding."
Che Hongzi spoke word by word, then gazed at Ding Huan without continuing.
Ding Huan's heart sank, feeling that Che Hongzi wasn't trying to deceive him.
"Che Hongzi, there isn't just one or two who know about my Eternal God Wheel. Opponents aside, even my friends Ling Zhuzhen and Xing Ga know I have the Eternal God Wheel.
Why have they never mentioned any of this? And how do you know?
Honestly speaking, your cultivation and strength are the lowest among the cosmic cultivators I've known."
Ding Huan, while speaking, also stared at Che Hongzi. As long as Che Hongzi spoke, the rules in this space would surely change slightly, and once those changes occurred, he would know.
Che Hongzi replied calmly: "Mr. Ding, my cultivation and strength indeed cannot match those of Dao Ancestors and Heavenly Emperors.
But everyone has different areas of expertise, and I run the Rest Building. In terms of insight, perhaps they are not my equal.
More importantly, the Eternal God Saint once stayed at my Rest Building.
Now what I'm saying concerns my own life; do you think I would deceive you?
I swear by the Great Dao that every word I say is true. If there's falsehood, may my Great Dao collapse, my primordial spirit disintegrate, and may I never reincarnate."
This was indeed a venomous vow, and Ding Huan halted the gathering force of the Breaking Tribulation Blade.
Continuing to gather the sword force would mean striking down.
He was prepared to listen to what Che Hongzi had to say.
If the Eternal God Saint merely stayed at Che Hongzi's Rest Building, and Che Hongzi learned the Saint's secrets from that, then it seems he should be cautious when lodging at the Rest Building in the future.
"Go ahead, if what you say earns my approval, I won't mind sparing you once." Ding Huan's tone eased.
Che Hongzi's words are of great importance.
If what he says is true, then in the future using the Eternal God Wheel against the Eternal God Saint would be suicidal.
Che Hongzi took a deep breath, knowing this is crucial to his chances of survival:
"Normally, a chaos treasure rarely gets taken away after its first owner because no one knows its mysteries.
And those who know its mysteries are usually slain immediately.
The reason I haven't been killed is that nobody ever knew I knew these things…"
Che Hongzi paused again after saying this.
Ding Huan understood Che Hongzi's implication—telling him not to disclose today's secret.
If divulged, then the owner of a chaos treasure would immediately kill Ding Huan.
After killing Ding Huan, Che Hongzi wouldn't escape either.
No one would leave Che Hongzi alive.
Ding Huan said indifferently: "You can speak freely, this place is under my own Dao principle's barrier. No one but I can know what you say."
Che Hongzi shivered, realizing he overlooked one thing—even if Ding Huan didn't tell, what he said here might still leak out.
Those possessing top ten chaos treasures—none are simple folk?
Yet, if Ding Huan can truly construct a barrier with his own Dao principle, there's a chance it wouldn't leak.
"Mr. Ding, can you really construct a barrier with your own Dao principle?" Che Hongzi asked tremblingly.
"Why don't you guess?"
Inwardly, Che Hongzi thought, even without the Eternal God Wheel, you could kill me.
"Mr. Ding, in fact, the secret is worthless once spoken. Any chaos treasure exists as a singular entity.
If I'm not mistaken, your Eternal God Wheel is more than just the Eternal God Wheel, isn't it?"
Che Hongzi's words were like a thunderbolt exploding in Ding Huan's mind.
The main body of his Eternal God Wheel is indeed the wheel, but its greatest trump card lies not in the wheel itself, but in the Wheel Killing and Wheel Heart.
This….
(Good night, fellow Daoist!)
