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

Chapter 639: Where Darkness Resides



"Elder Lan, let's quickly inform the Sect Master and ask the Sect Master to shape the body for Master Brother," Hu Dongjian called out eagerly.

The Sect Master he mentioned was Second Senior Sister Bing Shuangfeng.

Lan Li shook her head, "Nephew Hu, personally take your Master Brother to a quiet place and shape the body for him. Remember, do not inform your Second Senior Sister."

"Why?" Hu Dongjian looked at Lan Li completely puzzled.

It should be known that with only Primordial Spirit, only Second Senior Sister is the most concerned about Brother Dan Jian.

She not only brought Brother Dan Jian back from the most dangerous Dao Ruins but also searched daily for body shaping treasures for him.

Lan Li said coldly, "In such a dangerous place as Dao Ruins, our Sect Master, your Master Brother Qi Xiao, and the Young Sect Master all encountered problems, only your Second Senior Sister could return, and even brought back the Young Sect Master's Primordial Spirit.

Do you think your Second Senior Sister is a Divine King or a God Unification Realm expert?"

"Are you saying?" Even if Hu Dongjian had low emotional intelligence, with Elder Lan speaking to such an extent, he understood.

Lan Li nodded, "It's good that you know, there is no evidence for this matter, it's just speculation. I don't know what your body shaping material is or how it was obtained.

But remember, in the Divine World, good body shaping materials are almost extinct. Getting them once means you definitely can't get them a second time."

If it weren't for this goofy guy getting the body shaping material, Lan Li would never have said these words.

"Yes, Elder Lan, I know what to do," Hu Dongjian immediately said.

"I received news that Divine Spirit Rice appeared on Dao Ruins Street. This Divine Spirit Rice is a top treasure for the entire Divine World, especially important for our Wan Dan Divine Sect.

After you leave the Sect, I will go to Dao Ruins Street. If the Young Sect Master recovers his body, do not return to the Sect immediately, you can look for me at Dao Ruins Street."

"Yes, Elder Lan."

Ding Huan halted; he had been walking in the Dao Ruins for nearly a month.

Yi Jie had long since been thrown into the Five Elements World.

Aside from Yi Jie's slow pace, there really wasn't anything worthwhile here.

Rumors spoke of Luck Stones in the Dao Ruins, and Ding Huan only wanted to ask where exactly those Luck Stones could be found?

In this month's time, he did not encounter any danger, only that the deeper he went into the Dao Ruins, the more his Divine Will was suppressed.

Ding Huan wasn't bothered by this.

There were many places where Divine Will was suppressed, primarily due to the Heaven and Earth Rules.

In the Dao Ruins, the Heaven and Earth Rules were vague, so it would be strange if Divine Will wasn't suppressed.

In the Dao Ruins, sometimes one would pass through some extremely peculiar areas.

Ding Huan couldn't quite tell what these areas were, but as soon as he entered such an area, he felt as if his breathing and vitality were stifled, a feeling of suffocation.

After passing through the area, things would improve again.

Ding Huan checked carefully but couldn't figure out any clues.

Before Ding Huan stood an ancient gate, the stone marks on it seemed to date back countless years.

Since Dao Ruins was located at the edge of the Divine World, entering the Dao Ruins, the Heaven and Earth Rules became vague, the Heaven and Earth Divine Spirit Qi fragmented, making cultivation difficult.

The surroundings were shrouded in a gray mist, devoid of sun, moon, or stars.

This situation often felt like being in the Void.

So Ding Huan assumed that the Dao Ruins was a continent floating in the Void.

However, this land hadn't been perfected in the long rivers of history within the vast Universe, which turned it into the Dao Ruins.

Yet now, when such a gate appeared before Ding Huan, he was indeed somewhat bewildered.

Could his speculation be wrong?

If he speculated correctly, how could there be structures or ancient gates in the Void?

This gate, evidently, had withstood countless ages.

More importantly, it's not just the gate; on both sides of it stretched even more dilapidated courtyard walls.

Ding Huan's Divine Will reached inside but was immediately blocked.

With his Spiritual Eye open, he could hazily see some things inside, yet due to his low Spiritual Eye level, he couldn't see clearly.

Ding Huan sighed; if his Spiritual Eye were at the Holy Eye level, there would be nothing unclear.

It seemed he still needed to find more Divine Muhe, the more, the better.

From the map and directions Ji Yue provided, plus some introductions, entry should be through this ancient gate.

Ding Huan was about to step through this gate when he sensed someone approaching.

He hid without hesitation, and in a place like the Dao Ruins, Ding Huan could hide without even a Divine King noticing.

Just half a stick of incense later, a man and a woman walked over.

The man had a handsome appearance and tall stature.

The woman was exceptionally graceful, her aqua-blue dress further highlighted her gentleness.

Walking together, they indeed made a perfect match, with both talent and beauty.

The woman was in the late Heavenly God Realm, and the man should be at the peak of the Heavenly God Realm.

This level of cultivation was nothing in Ding Huan's eyes, so he straightforwardly placed a Mark of Divine Will on both of them.

"Shuang Feng, this is the place you mentioned?" The man pointed to the ancient gate ahead.

The woman nodded, "This is it; I assume many people know about this place and have entered."

"So strange..." The man muttered to himself.

The woman, however, said, "Jiu Lin, nothing in the Dao Ruins is strange; the appearance time of this gate isn't long. It is said that Cosmic Essence appeared inside, and as for Divine Spirit Veins, that can be considered commonplace..."

"Cosmic Essence?" The man's voice was so excited it almost broke.

"Yes."

"Let's go, we're going in."

The man, who was still hesitating, grabbed the woman's hand after receiving a definite answer, and the two of them stepped into the door together.

Ding Huan's perception kept focusing on his Mark of Divine Will. Originally, after the two entered, he would determine their location based on the position of the Mark of Divine Will.

What he didn't expect was that as soon as these two entered the door, they instantly disappeared without a trace.

He could not sense where his Mark of Divine Will was at all.

Ding Huan felt very confused, he also stepped into the door.

A powerful vortex force swept over, and Ding Huan immediately knew that he had been teleported.

"Bang!"

A fierce impact hit, and Ding Huan felt as if his whole skeleton was about to disband.

And around him was complete darkness.

He had been calculated against.

No teleportation array should cause such a heavy impact upon arriving.

This was obviously intentional.

However, it seemed that the sound of the collision was something only he could vaguely feel, not strongly.

Ding Huan swept his Divine Will out, shocked to discover that his Divine Will could only penetrate less than half a meter.

Moreover, this half-meter was still very vague, making it impossible to clearly see anything.

The place his vision touched was completely dark.

It was as if he had fallen into a black hole, this...

Ding Huan first thought of the Dark Law.

He had obtained Ku Yuchen's Great Dark Technique at Moon Traveling Sky, which was likely a replicated version of the original, strictly speaking not a true Great Dark Technique.

Because he was cultivating the Great Universe Technique and most of the Divine Skills he comprehended were also qualified to appear on the Three Thousand Great Paths.

So Ding Huan was not very interested in this Great Dark Technique.

Simply put, he didn't think much of it.

At this moment, Ding Huan realized that Daoist Skills, whether good or bad, are worth learning first.

Learning them never harms you.

Even for the Big Calculation Skill he eliminated, it wasn't an issue with the Daoist Skill itself, but someone employing means on it.

If he had cultivated the Dark Law now, or if the Sea of Consciousness Dao Universe had integrated the Dark Law, could his Divine Will sweep out here?

Ding Huan stood up, the pain in his body had disappeared.

His physical body was at the Sacred Body second level, if an ordinary cultivator came in, they would likely be severely injured, right?

Ding Huan sensed for his Mark placed on the man and woman, but it still couldn't be detected.

Ding Huan summoned a Bright Array Plate.

To his surprise, when the Bright Array Plate was summoned, only a little light appeared before him.

He threw the Bright Array Plate to the ground, and the light instantly disappeared.

In other words, even with a strong light, the light had no penetrating power; holding it in his hand, only a little light was visible, and once it left his body, he could no longer see anything.

This darkness...

It's not just darkness; here, besides light not being able to extend, Divine Will can't stretch, and sound can't be transmitted, just like being in chaos.

Ding Huan thought that this place could never be where chaos existed.

Ding Huan opened his Spiritual Eye.

Currently, Ding Huan's Spiritual Eye was at level five of the Heavenly Eye, and he vaguely saw a range of about two meters.

This made Ding Huan breathe a sigh of relief.

Indeed, any techniques learned are indeed useful; he had strained all his thoughts on Dao Ruins Street to upgrade his Spiritual Eye to level five Heavenly Eye, and now it was useful.

If he couldn't see anything, he wouldn't dare move at all, who knows what he might step on next?

The ground seemed very smooth, and where he had collided earlier appeared to be a massive pillar.

Ding Huan walked a few steps forward and saw the man and woman.

Both were severely injured and bleeding, lying together with obviously badly fractured bones.

Even though Ding Huan was less than two meters away from them, they still couldn't sense Ding Huan's presence.

Ding Huan bypassed the two and walked about a few dozen zhang further and saw a corpse.

The person seemed not to have fallen long ago, with some Dao Rhythms still lingering, judging from cultivation likely in the Divine Monarch Realm.

Ding Huan bypassed again.

A stick of incense later, Ding Huan stopped at the corner of a giant stone.

He wanted to arrange a Defense Divine Array, but soon realized he couldn't set up his Divine Array at all.

Ding Huan tried to enter his Five Elements World for comprehending the Dark Law.

He found again he couldn't enter the Five Elements World.

Fortunately, he still had a little Divine Will, which could scan the Great Dark Technique thrown into the Five Elements World.

The Spiritual Eye could only vaguely discern a range of two meters, which for Ding Huan was just for taking a few steps, not enough for survival here.

He must first master the Dark Law before anything else.
