Post-Mythical Era: I don't want to die in the third reincarnation

Ding Huan's poison deployment may not be entirely without traces, but with his method of weaving poison through the Heaven and Earth All Things Law, even the most advanced World God might not perceive it.

As for Xuan Jincheng, he is merely an ordinary World God.

During cultivation, the poison was completely undetectable as it fully covered the Taoist Rhythm within the body.

However, Ding Huan has always controlled the outbreak of this poison.

To deal with a World God like Xuan Jincheng, one must be cautious and careful. If Xuan Jincheng discovers the poison prematurely, it might all come to naught.

That's how he dealt with Qian Xun before.

Qian Xun was only at the Divine Monarch Realm, and he was an injured Divine Monarch. Ding Huan barely expended any effort in deploying poison.

Ten days quickly passed, and Ding Huan felt he had been somewhat conservative.

Being conservative is risking, and this is definitely not a mistake a cultivator skilled in poison should make.

With Xuan Jincheng's perception, maybe six days would have sufficed.

The longer the time, although the poisoning deepens, it actually becomes more dangerous.

Xuan Jincheng now vaguely feels that his recent cultivation is somewhat incorrect, and he halts his cultivation.

Just as Xuan Jincheng was about to examine what was wrong with him, a powerful Daoist Rhythm soared into the sky.

The breath exploding from that rhythm is clear as day even when he's atop Qinglei Mountain.

Is someone about to advance to the God Monarch Realm?

Moreover, judging by this momentum, this God Monarch is absolutely extraordinary.

Xuan Jincheng's Divine Will swept out immediately, discovering that the outbreak of rhythm originated from Mulei Mountain.

Sensing someone at Mulei Mountain about to advance to the God Monarch Realm, Xuan Jincheng's eyes instantly revealed a murderous intent.

Mulei Mountain is Ji Yue's cultivation arena. It's evidently Ji Yue who is advancing to the God Monarch Realm.

Wasn't Ji Yue heavily injured? How could she advance to the God Monarch so quickly?

Xuan Jincheng quickly understood that Ji Yue's injury was highly likely feigned.

The goal was to make him lower his guard, then she advances to the God Monarch.

The sect clearly stipulates that no one can interrupt a disciple during their advancement.

Yet Xuan Jincheng still unhesitatingly shouted at Ji Yue through the transmitting array:

"Ji Yue, you must come to Qinglei Mountain right away for something important; you must not delay."

Even if it means tearing down the facade, Xuan Jincheng cannot let Ji Yue advance to the God Monarch.

If Ji Yue advances to the God Monarch and a sect elder stands up to speak for her, she might leave the sect.

A God Monarch Ji Yue leaving the sect poses too great a threat to him.

No, Ji Yue must not live; even if his reputation falls due to this, he must kill Ji Yue.

Xuan Jincheng resolved that if Ji Yue dares to ignore his call, he would immediately visit Mulei Mountain himself.

To his relief, after his shout, the nearly advancing formidable aura on Mulei Mountain gradually dissipated, and his Divine Will soon detected Ji Yue heading toward him.

It's good she can still come.

Xuan Jincheng coldly sensed Ji Yue getting ever closer to Qinglei Mountain, resolving that under no circumstances should Ji Yue go to Dao Ruins.

If Ji Yue goes to Dao Ruins, it would mean releasing a tiger ready to kill him at any time.

Due to Ji Yue's advancement to the God Monarch, Xuan Jincheng momentarily forgot to check the problems arising during his own cultivation.

A stick of incense later, outside the main peak of Qinglei Mountain, Ji Yue's voice was heard: "Ji Yue greets Sect Master Xuan, not knowing what matter it is that sect master calls me for?"

Upon hearing Ji Yue address him as Sect Master Xuan, the dissatisfaction in her tone was quite palpable, further intensifying the killing intent in Xuan Jincheng's heart.

This woman cannot stay, she absolutely cannot be retained.

Hidden off to the side, Ding Huan silently praised, this woman can act.

If someone interrupted your advancement to God Monarch, and you showed no anger at all, that would be unnatural.

Teaming up with a clever woman is delightful.

"You should come in first." Xuan Jincheng replied calmly.

Ji Yue felt uneasy inside; didn't Ding Huan say ten days of preparation? Why, despite this being the tenth day, does Xuan Jincheng seem not to have changed much?

Not only did he speak with full strength, but his surrounding Dao Rhythms surged, seemingly without any issues.

But having arrived here, Ji Yue could only stay prepared to escape at all times.

She had a top-tier Jutsu Talisman on her, able to directly break through the Protecting Array of Qinglei Dao Sect to leave.

With the Protecting Array of the main peak open, Ji Yue cautiously entered the main peak, her heart pounding as there had been no news from Ding Huan.

Almost as soon as Ji Yue entered the array, it closed behind her.

Ji Yue did not turn back, feeling a vague sense of something trailing beside her.

Only when she tried to sense again, there was not a trace at all.

This excited Ji Yue, as the only person capable of trailing her could be Ding Huan.

If Ding Huan was next to her, and she couldn't detect him, then certainly from such a distance, Xuan Jincheng couldn't either.

Though she still had no clear sense of what Ding Huan's plan would be, the fact that Ding Huan had taken down Qian Xun was certain.

This was why she was willing to trust Ding Huan.

This was also why she was willing to take this risk.

Once again passing through the main hall's protecting array, Ji Yue stood in front of Xuan Jincheng.

She was feeling somewhat lacking in confidence again. Ding Huan couldn't possibly appear here. There were no obstructions here. If Ding Huan appeared, Xuan Jincheng would absolutely detect him.

"Niece Ji Yue, how are the preparations for the Dao Ruins going?"

Seeing Ji Yue standing before him, Xuan Jincheng finally felt relieved.

If Ji Yue managed to escape even under such circumstances, he, a World God, would indeed be too inexperienced.

Ji Yue bowed respectfully, "I am fully prepared; we will depart in at most half a month."

Xuan Jincheng sneered inwardly, half a month?

Half a month to advance to the Divine Monarch Realm, then to the Dao Ruins to ascend to World God, right?

Xuan Jincheng's expression suddenly changed, "Ding Huan just came to me and told me that you killed Master Qian Xun?"

Ji Yue was taken aback.

Ding Huan betrayed her?

Weren't they supposed to join hands to take down Xuan Jincheng? How could Ding Huan come to Xuan Jincheng and confront her?

She didn't have much enmity with Ding Huan.

If there had to be any resentment, it was just her accompanying Bo Ya to recruit Ding Huan.

No, Ji Yue quickly realized, if Ding Huan was the informant, there's no way Xuan Jincheng would wait until she was about to advance to Divine Monarch to summon her.

Thinking of this, Ji Yue hurriedly said, "Sect Master, when Master Qian Xun fell, Deacon Yuan was right next to him, and I was not within the sect at the time."

The implication being, no matter how this is forcibly interpreted, it couldn't be pinned on me.

"Whether or not you did, stay here first, and wait for me to convene the sect assembly."

Xuan Jincheng sighed, suddenly raising his hand to grab Ji Yue.

Ji Yue immediately sidestepped.

Xuan Jincheng's face darkened, suddenly standing up. The domain burst out abruptly, he stepped forward and raised his hand, slamming it toward Ji Yue.

The World God's domain swept over, and Ji Yue's face turned pale. She overlooked one point: when Xuan Jincheng was going all out, she had no chance to activate the jutsu talisman.

Just as Ji Yue was despairing, she suddenly felt the domain binding her becoming unstable, even showing signs of collapse.

Moreover, Xuan Jincheng's actions and the aura of his divine essence slowed and weakened.

Ji Yue's first thought was to quickly use the jutsu talisman to escape, but immediately she saw the look of terror on Xuan Jincheng's face.

Had Ding Huan made a move?

In just an instant, Ji Yue realized that Ding Huan had indeed acted.

Without hesitation, she wielded the Green Thunder Saber, the blade whirling up waves of azure lightning striking at Xuan Jincheng.

Simultaneously, her domain also spread out wildly, locking Xuan Jincheng down.

The Green Thunder Saber, the sect treasure of the Qinglei Divine Dao Sect, indeed was in Ji Yue's hands, and Xuan Jincheng regretted not eliminating this latent threat sooner.

But he was more aware than anyone else of his current predicament.

Just as he had fully expanded his domain and prepared to apprehend Ji Yue, the circulating Dao Rhythm suddenly exploded.

Horrifying Poison Dao Laws filled his entire body, even permeating his great Dao Rhythm.

In a very short time, his sea of consciousness became murky, divine essence stagnated, and dantian mana.

This wasn't even the most terrifying part; the most frightening was that even his great Dao Rhythm began to collapse.

He was poisoned, and not just with one kind of poison either.

Xuan Jincheng was no idiot, but ever since he became the sect master of the Qinglei Divine Dao Sect, he never took Ji Yue seriously.

Now with the poison and Ji Yue being summoned here at the same time, even a fool would realize this wasn't a coincidence.

Indeed, it wasn't a coincidence, because the strike Ji Yue had executed could not be unleashed without being at mid Divine Monarch stage.

He resented this intensely.

Ji Yue had advanced to mid Divine Monarch stage, yet he still presumed she was at Heavenly God Realm, even thinking she was injured.

Xuan Jincheng frantically churned his divine essence, withdrawing his fist, and simultaneously summoned his magical treasure, a Glazed Tang.

"Boom!"

The Glazed Tang clashed with Ji Yue's Green Thunder Saber, and the Dao Rhythm erupted.

The arc of the Green Thunder Saber instantly dissipated, and she staggered back over ten steps, spitting out a blood arrow.

Ji Yue was overjoyed.

She hadn't misjudged Ding Huan.

Though Ding Huan hadn't yet appeared, Xuan Jincheng's current state was definitely Ding Huan's doing.

If Xuan Jincheng were still at full strength, she wouldn't even be able to battle him, let alone wield the Green Thunder Saber under his domain.

Even though she spat out blood, Ji Yue did not retreat but instead advanced, once again transforming the Green Thunder Saber in her hands into hundreds of arcs laced with lightning striking down.

If she didn't kill Xuan Jincheng today, future opportunities would be even slimmer.

Xuan Jincheng could even hear the sound of his own meridians fracturing, the great Dao Rhythm becoming increasingly inoperable.

At this rate, let alone killing Ji Yue, he feared he wouldn't even leave here alive today.

Go, leave immediately.

This was Xuan Jincheng's sole thought.
