Post-Mythical Era: I don't want to die in the third reincarnation
Chapter 969 - 962: Identity Exposed
Since the barrier to enter the Chaos Zone has not yet opened, everyone is waiting at the Gods Plaza.
On the edge of the Gods Plaza, temporary cave mansions can be easily set up.
Ding Huan and Di He also set up a temporary cave mansion here, waiting for the barrier to open and to enter the Chaos Zone.
After entering the cave mansion, Ding Huan, worried that Ji Sixin might disturb him, simply put up a sign saying 'In Seclusion, Do Not Disturb' and then entered his own Cosmic World.
He had not heard of the Unalterable Stone before, but since he cultivated the Great Universe Technique, he was very clear about the laws of everything.
No matter how seemingly lawless something is, once exposed to the vast world, it will come into contact with the laws of everything.
Therefore, although he had obtained five Unalterable Stones, Ding Huan still took them into his own Chaos Law Sea.
Raising his hand to grab an Unalterable Stone, Ding Huan's Divine Will fell upon it.
He immediately understood the situation.
This Unalterable Stone was wrapped in a layer of natural restriction; if one wants to use the Unalterable Stone to craft a container, it is best not to damage this natural restriction, otherwise, it might not be of much use.
There's another point that Di He and Min Zu didn't mention, but Ding Huan could guess.
Using the Unalterable Stone to craft a container is definitely not the same as crafting an ordinary magical treasure.
The best estimate is to craft it in Chaos Space or Lawless Space.
Ding Huan has never encountered Lawless Space, and he estimates it doesn't exist.
Since it is a space, there must be space laws; how could it be lawless?
However, Chaos Space does exist, and he is now in his own Chaos Law Sea.
If he crafts a container with the Unalterable Stone in his Chaos Law Sea, will it preserve the Chaos Law Paste for longer?
Regardless of whether it is longer, Ding Huan decided to craft several containers with the Unalterable Stone in his own Chaos Law Sea.
...
At the Council Hall of the Gods Plaza, the meeting of the six Masters of the Universe had just ended.
Just as everyone was about to disperse, Lou Poyi suddenly said, "Fellow Daoists, have you noticed something different about Qi Sha from the Gods Trading Building?"
No one spoke.
Even if they knew something was different, no one would mention it.
Lou Poyi naturally felt there was a problem with the opposition due to his conflict with the Gods Hall and the Gods Trading Building.
A few people looked at Zhu Xunjiang, who backed the Gods Trading Building; Lou Poyi was ready to stir things up, and Zhu Xunjiang was expected to be the first to stand up and oppose.
What puzzled everyone was that Zhu Xunjiang did not stand up; not only did he not stand up, but he also seemed to be pondering something.
Seeing that Zhu Xunjiang did not intend to speak for the Gods Trading Building, a long-haired young man in a white Taoist robe asked, "Hall Master Lou, why do you say that?"
He was Han Congjian, the Peak Master of the Congjian Peak, and had a good relationship with Lou Poyi.
Lou Poyi tried to moderate his tone: "I'm not targeting the Gods Trading Building or deliberately seeking trouble with Qi Sha.
I just feel that Qi Sha's actions are very unusual. Everyone has seen his previous capabilities and techniques.
Not to say he's exceedingly lacking, but indeed, his reputation is just a little fierce. As for strength, heh...
I believe that even if someone had a sudden realization, they wouldn't change this much in such a short time."
Jian Zhen spoke up, "Hall Master Lou's meaning is that Qi Sha's power has increased too quickly?"
Indeed, it was peculiar for Qi Sha, with a realm of Wuque Saint, to slay Ju Chen of the sixth step.
However, everyone thought Ju Chen had just stepped into the sixth step, his Great Dao unstable, allowing Qi Sha to take advantage.
Lou Poyi shook his head: "No, it's not Qi Sha's power, but his understanding of the Great Dao has changed unimaginably.
You may not have seen the Daoist Rhythm and domain aura when Qi Sha first acted, but I have, and not just once.
Frankly, he was just relying on his deep foundation, bullying opponents with lower cultivation. To say he had any brilliance, none truly existed.
This time, the Daoist Rhythm Qi Sha exhibited, though not much different in aura, was on a level of strength and ferocity far above before.
But this isn't the most crucial; the most crucial point is..."
Lou Poyi stopped without continuing.
The puzzling part for everyone was that Zhu Xunjiang took the initiative to assist Lou Poyi: "Hall Master Lou means that Qi Sha's domain Dao Principle is not well aligned with the domain of the World of Gods, and even somewhat abrupt."
Such subtle law fluctuations aren't evident to the average person.
Lou Poyi and Zhu Xunjiang, being strong individuals, noticed some improprieties after realizing something was off.
Even if it didn't occur to them at the moment, they would understand afterward.
Ding Huan never thought that because of the detailed control of the law fluctuations captured by his Imaging Crystal Ball, he unwittingly exposed a flaw.
That was when he had just entered the World of Gods; his Daoist Rhythm fluctuation hadn't yet aligned with the Heaven and Earth Rules of the World of Gods.
If he were to record the Imaging Crystal Ball now, Lou Poyi wouldn't be able to discern any clues.
Some things are like a thin layer of window paper; without piercing it, it seems mysterious, but once torn, there's no secret to speak of.
No one found it strange that Zhu Xunjiang helped Lou Poyi speak.
Zhu Xunjiang may be a friend of Ji Sixin from the Gods Trading Building, but he also protects the World of Gods.
Ding Huan's Dao Rhythm Law fluctuation clearly came from outside.
Once an unknown external force attempted to enter the World of Gods forcibly, even if Ji Sixin was his friend, he wouldn't help.
Lou Poyi agreed, saying: "Yes, that Qi Sha's Daoist Rhythm Fluctuations are quite incompatible with the Heaven and Earth Rules of the World of Gods.
If I'm not mistaken, it's highly likely he comes from outside the World of Gods and hasn't been here for long.
This reminds me of Mo Wuji and Lan Xiaobu back then—how many did those two kill in our World of Gods? They even almost broke the barrier of our World of Gods.
If this Qi Sha is a fake, then the real one was surely killed by him.
Fellow Daoists, think about it—if we hadn't stopped Mo Wuji and Lan Xiaobu back then, what would have happened..."
Jian Zhen's face grew solemn: "This matter is no small affair..."
He knew about those past events too because he participated in the siege of Lan Xiaobu and Mo Wuji.
Calling Qi Sha the Killing God?
Haha, in front of those two, Qi Sha is nothing.
The people of the World of Gods only know that in that battle, nearly ninety percent of the Saints of Words and Wuque Saints of the Gods Hall fell.
They don't know that the Holy Dao Alliance and the Great Daoist Sect also lost a group of Saints of Words and Wuque Saints.
Not only that, but in intercepting those two, the World of Gods saw over ten thousand cultivators almost wiped out under a single Destruction Technique from the opponent.
The reason no Sixth Step person fell was that the World of Gods deployed four Masters of the Universe, not the rumored three.
These four included Lou Poyi, Jian Zhen, Han Congjian, and Jiang Jianwang, who didn't come to this meeting.
"Let's investigate that Qi Sha right now, shall we? We six are in the Gods Plaza; no matter how powerful Qi Sha is, he can't make the sky jump."
An elder in a purple robe stood up, surrounded by a strong killing aura.
He was Guo Qingshan, the Seventh Step powerhouse of Heart Sword Dao, though his name was Guo Qingshan, he actually loved wearing a purple robe the most.
Everyone quickly reached a consensus.
They may allow fights between the Taoist Sects of the World of Gods, but they will absolutely not allow any outsider to enter the World of Gods.
Of course, except for the Nine Heavens.
Because they simply couldn't win against it.
...
After Ding Huan finished refining several unsophisticated stone containers, he kept feeling a bit uneasy.
He felt that this was not a good thing, and immediately sent a message to Di He.
Di He was also the first to arrive at Ding Huan's temporary cave mansion.
"Old brother, I feel something is not right; we must leave now." Ding Huan said very decisively.
Di He was indeed an excellent partner; he said without hesitation, "Then let's go now."
Not even asking for the reason.
"Old brother, hide your form and go out; I'll set up some restrictions outside my cave mansion." After saying this, Ding Huan was even more convinced that his feeling was correct.
Within merely a dozen breaths, Ding Huan and Di He quietly left the cave mansion.
As for this temporary cave mansion, Ding Huan arranged it simply inside and out to at least make it seem like he was still in cultivation.
The two transformed into inconspicuous Creation Realm Saints.
The most common in the Gods Plaza were Creation Realm Saints.
They come here seeking the chance to step into the realm of the Saints of Words, whether or not they qualify to enter the Chaos Zone, the Gods Plaza is their opportunity.
"Old Qi, what's the problem exactly?" After quietly leaving Ding Huan's temporary cave mansion, Di He finally asked.
Ding Huan kept calling him old brother, so he didn't bother to call him Daoist Qi anymore.
"Old brother, I am extremely sensitive to the Law of all things. I have this feeling that staying in the cave mansion or even the Gods Plaza would be detrimental to me. This is not intuition, but unease from the Law Fluctuations."
Ding Huan felt Di He was decent, so he didn't hide it.
Di He sighed, "You might really be right; look over there."
Without Di He having to point it out, Ding Huan also noticed.
Those Seventh Step big shots he saw before were all heading toward his cave mansion.
Seeing the murderous look on Lou Poyi's face, it was clear that this guy wasn't planning to let him go.
"Let's head to the edge of Chaos Zone; once the barrier opens, we'll go in immediately." Ding Huan patted Di He.
He felt some relief that he had left early.
Otherwise, being blocked in the temporary cave mansion by these six Seventh Step ones, escaping would not be easy at all.
Even if they managed to get away, it wouldn't be without a big cost.
As Ding Huan and Di He retreated, Ji Sixin happened to arrive at the door of Ding Huan's cave mansion.
Seeing the six Masters of the Universe approaching, she quickly stepped forward and bowed, asking, "Brother Xun Jiang, what is this about?"
Zhu Xunjiang sighed, looking at Ji Sixin, he said, "Si Xin, you were probably deceived by that Qi Sha. There's a high chance the real Qi Sha was killed by someone, and this Qi Sha is nine times out of ten a fake."
Upon hearing this, Ji Sixin's heart skipped a beat.
It's over; she didn't expect this impersonating Qi Sha guy would be discovered.
(Good night, fellow Daoist!)
