Post-Mythical Era: I don't want to die in the third reincarnation Chapter 896 - 889: The Forbearing Ones

Ding Huan's gaze swept over Hou Yucheng: "Mr. Hou, let's not discuss whether I'm courageous or not. At the very least, being a Daoist Court Master ans I have so skills.

But with your level of cultivation, staying in the Wan Dao Mountain Range, your courage surpasses mine greatly."

Hou Yucheng was also at the Creation Realm cultivation level.

With Ding Huan's keen eye, it was clear that Hou Yucheng's Great Dao was refined without any spillage.

The depth of this Tao Foundation may even exceed Ling Zhuzhen's.

It's not that Ding Huan has a high regard for Ling Zhuzhen, but Ling Zhuzhen was once one of the Dao Ancestors of the Great Universe, a being at the eighth step of the Great Dao.

Such a person cannot have a weak Dao, and considering Ding Huan helped Ling Zhuzhen solve the problem of Dao Chaos, he was naturally aware of Ling Zhuzhen's power.

Hou Yucheng's Tao Foundation being deeper than Ling Zhuzhen's clearly indicates he isn't ordinary.

Hou Yucheng laughed heartily: "Mr. Ding, the way you speak reminds of a friend.

But since I dare to stay here, I naturally do not fear those Heavenly Mongolian people.

If I wished to advance, though I may not reach the seventh step of the Great Dao now, I am at least at the sixth step."

Ding Huan's eyes lit up; could it be that Hou Yucheng also sensed the immature and simplistic Heaven and Earth Rules here, thus made the sa choice as him?

"Why don't you aim for the fourth step of the Great Dao?" Ding Huan asked Hou Yucheng.

Anyone who knows that aiming for the fourth step here is unwise is no ordinary person.

Hou Yucheng smiled faintly and said, "Master Ding, aren't we the sa? I believe if you wanted to reach the fourth step of the Great Dao, you'd be there already."

Ding Huan laughed heartily: "I'm curious how you knew that proving the fourth step here isn't promising."

Ding Huan understood this because he cultivated the Great Universe Technique, feeling the infinite laws of the universe.

He knew the nature of the Heaven and Earth Laws here when he stepped into the Creation Realm.

Proving the fourth step of the Great Dao in this place is digging a grave for one's future in the Dao.

Ling Zhuzhen knew because when the calamity of the Great Universe arrived, Ling Zhuzhen was hiding in the Great Universe.

The only difference was Ling Zhuzhen hid in the Chaos Zone of the Great Universe.

During the calamity, Ling Zhuzhen sensed so truths of the Great Dao.

Though Ling Zhuzhen vaguely perceived the truths of the Great Dao and the cosmic mysteries, he paid the price of Dao Chaos.

It's fair to say if it weren't for Ding Huan's assistance, Ling Zhuzhen would have been ruined.

Hou Yucheng sighed, he didn't answer Ding Huan's question.

That was his secret.

Though he planned to partner with Ding Huan, it didn't an he would reveal his secrets to a stranger.

He knew nothing about Ding Huan.

The only certainty is Ding Huan had a strong sense of identification with the Human Clan Cultivators.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have abolished titles like Dao Ancestor from each world and established the Dao Court.

This is also one reason he sought to partner with Ding Huan.

Ding Huan saw Hou Yucheng remained silent but didn't mind, waving him off: "Then I'll be on my way, Brother Hou, until we et again."

It's normal not to disclose such secrets.

"Master Ding, are you heading to the Tian ng Clan?" Hou Yucheng suddenly asked upon seeing Ding Huan preparing to leave.

Ding Huan indeed had that intention, but before heading to the Tian ng Clan, he needed to develop the Dao gene laws to collapse the Tian ng Clan.

This matter, he would likewise not share with anyone.

Not even those few Dao Ancestors.

Ding Huan looked puzzled at Hou Yucheng and did not answer.

Hou Yucheng slowly said: "If my guess is correct, within ten years, the Tian ng Clan will massacre the Human Tribe Cultivators of the Great Universe and occupy the entire Great Universe.

As a Daoist Court Master of the Great Universe, now unable to step onto the fourth step of the Great Dao, you naturally want to find another way to deal with the Tian ng Clan.

I think that's difficult, Master Ding might not know the Tian ng Clan has a Great Dao eighth step, and at least two Great Dao seventh steps..."

Here, Hou Yucheng paused but chose to explain: "When I say the seventh step of the Great Dao, I an before the calamity of the Great Universe.

Not the newly erged seventh step of the Great Dao post-cosmic developnt; the current Great Universe's Heaven and Earth Rules are simplistic and weak, proving a seventh step here is weak."

Hou Yucheng left the latter part unsaid.

The implication was, with such strength, for a Creation Realm Cultivator like Ding Huan to confront the Tian ng Clan was akin to courting death.

Ding Huan did not explain.

He understood the aning behind Hou Yucheng's words.

The Great Dao seventh and eighth steps born before the calamity of the Great Universe against him, a Creation Realm Cultivator, was like crushing an ant.

No matter how powerful his Great Dao was, it wouldn't suffice.

The difference here was too vast, and nothing could bridge it.

Hou Yucheng was right.

However, his gene laws are wholly about invisible slaughter and Dao collapse, perfect for dealing with the Tian ng Clan.

"Master Ding..."

Ding Huan gestured to stop Hou Yucheng: "Mr. Hou, though we aren't quite kindred spirits, our viewpoints are consistent; just call by my na."

Hou Yucheng expressed freely, clasping his fists: "Mr. Ding, my reason for staying here is also to deal with the Tian ng Clan.

It's just that my strength is inadequate, and over the years I've only managed to uncover so truths, but have yet to find soone to collaborate with.

Before, I wanted to partner with Mr. Ding, but Mr. Ding has been in seclusion in Wandao City, so I've had to continue looking for a way by myself here."

Hearing this, Ding Huan finally understood completely.

Hou Yucheng was here not only to find a Dao Vein to profit from, but also had an idea similar to his own, which was to eliminate the Tian ng Clan.

A rather decent fellow.

If that's the case, then it's possible to share his own plan with Hou Yucheng.

Hou Yucheng has certainly been here for so years and knows more than he does.

"Actually, there used to be two eighth-step powerhouses of the Tian ng Clan here, but one was taken down."

Does the Human Tribe have soone capable of taking down an eighth-step powerhouse? Ding Huan imdiately asked, "Who is it? Where?"

Such a person, naturally, should be contacted first, and then join forces to deal with the Tian ng Clan.

Hou Yucheng smiled, "Actually, you should know this person; his na is Xi Changi."

Shi Keling?

Ding Huan frowned. Zuo Shanyi's cultivation at best was about the sa as his own, even if stronger, he couldn't possibly take down an eighth-step mber of the Tian ng Clan.

Even if that eighth-step was seriously injured, it wouldn't be soone Zuo Shanyi could take down.

"How does Brother Hou know? Besides, Xi Changi's cultivation shouldn't be able to kill an eighth-step, right?" Ding Huan looked at Hou Yucheng with so skepticism.

Hou Yucheng sighed, "This person is the most resilient fellow I've ever seen, bar none.

The Wandao Mountain Range actually has a top-grade Dao Vein, and I'm the first to discover it..."

Ding Huan was shocked, is there really a top-grade Dao Vein in the Wandao Mountain Range?

How do the Heaven and Earth Rules here allow the existence of a top-grade Dao Vein?

Hou Yucheng continued, "It's not entirely a complete top-grade Dao Vein, because the Wandao Mountain Range also erged later from Chaos.

That top-grade Dao Vein is still being perfected. If left untouched, it would eventually beco fully perfected.

I discovered that top-grade Dao Vein and even used it for cultivation for a period of ti..."

"Why didn't you extract that Dao Vein?" Ding Huan asked.

Hou Yucheng smiled slightly, "That Dao Vein needs at most a thousand years to completely perfect itself and beco a genuine top-grade Dao Vein.

If I extract it prematurely, wouldn't that be wasteful?"

Ding Huan could feel Hou Yucheng's sincere tone, he wasn't lying.

Even Ding Huan couldn't help but secretly admire him.

If it were him, he wouldn't be able to do it either.

If this Dao Vein only had a few decades to complete its tamorphosis into a top-grade Dao Vein, he might wait.

A thousand years, just waiting for a top-grade Dao Vein to fully form, he doesn't have that patience, he would definitely extract it and deal with it later.

Not extracting it, waiting for soone else?

This Hou Yucheng truly is ambitious, to even be able to wait for it.

"While I was waiting on one side, that Xi Changi also discovered this Dao Vein.

I thought Xi Changi would extract this Dao Vein, I was about to tell him that this Dao Vein wasn't fully perfected yet. He actually didn't act, but sent a ssage out instead.

I felt that Xi Changi wasn't soone who would share a top-grade Dao Vein with others, so I was puzzled about what this guy was up to.

To my surprise, after Xi Changi sent out the ssage, he imdiately hid himself..."

At this point, Hou Yucheng shook his head, "I thought my Concealing Technique was very strong, but Xi Changi's Concealing Technique was indeed no weaker than mine.

Not only could he conceal himself, but he was also proficient in Tian Gang Thirty-Six Illusory Divine Skills.

At that ti, he blended into the Heaven and Earth Laws almost completely, if I hadn't arrived earlier, I wouldn't have sensed him at all.

After about half a month, a cultivator from the Tian ng Clan rushed over, and upon discovering the Dao Vein that was about to beco top-grade, was overjoyed.

Only then did I realize Xi Changi had invited this Tian ng Clan powerhouse to extract the top-grade Dao Vein..."

Ding Huan interjected, "Xi Changi couldn't be so kind as to give the top-grade Dao Vein to soone else. But Xi Changi isn't a cultivator of the Tian ng Clan, why would he invite a Tian ng Clan cultivator?"

Hou Yucheng nodded, "Mr. Ding, your guess is correct. This cultivator from the Tian ng Clan didn't extract the almost top-grade Dao Vein.

He sat on this Dao Vein, actually repairing his Great Dao...

That's when I found out that the Great Dao of that Tian ng Clan powerhouse had beco chaotic, and he wanted to use the Dao Vein to perfect his Great Dao."

Ding Huan nodded.

A chaotic Great Dao, if not for soone like him who cultivates the Great Universe Technique intervening, using a top-grade Dao Vein is indeed a thod of repair.

It's just that it takes a long ti.

"At first, that eighth-step powerhouse of the Tian ng Clan was cautious, but after a thousand years, he seed to feel his Great Dao could be repaired, so he no longer held back and even opened up his own Great Dao World..."

Even though Hou Yucheng was still talking, Ding Huan was stunned.

Zuo Shanyi being capable of long-term patience, he knew, but enduring for a thousand years was simply insane.

If Zuo Shanyi is insane, then this Hou Yucheng in front of him seems no less insane.

This guy who claid Zuo Shanyi was the most patient guy he'd t wasn't much different; he too was lurking on the sidelines for a thousand years.

Why is everyone like this?

(Good night, fellow Daoist!)
