Chapter 511: Ambushed
Ding Huan threw the broken Dao Vein into the Void Flames.
Like a star core suddenly exploding, the violent primordial energy burst instantly.
"Boom!"
The Void Flames suddenly exploded into a purple mass, terrifying flames surged, and the aura of death permeated through, changing Ding Huan's expression instantly.
This dreadful aura would bring death upon contact.
The flames erupted too quickly, enfolding Ding Huan instantly.
Ding Huan sighed in relief.
He was unharmed.
Not because he could withstand such terrifying flames, but because the Void Flames belonged to him.
Boom, boom, boom!
Continuous explosions echoed, Ding Huan watched as the surrounding vortex began to collapse.
The fire magma seemed to be completely released, expanding crazily as the vortex in the Gray Sea collapsed.
Ding Huan's gaze fell on the leather scroll in the center of the Void Flames.
The leather scroll had become completely motionless.
Before Ding Huan could examine it further, countless cracks appeared on the leather scroll and it vanished into the Void Flames.
The leather scroll was easily destroyed, yet the violent flames continued to expand.
Ding Huan retracted the Void Flames and dashed out.
He had just left when the spot he stood on turned into a massive fire magma vent, spanning thousands of miles.
Even more fierce fire magma erupted from the underground, and the aura of death in the Gray Sea vanished instantly in the face of the terrifying fire magma.
Watching the still violently expanding fire magma vent from afar, Ding Huan was secretly shocked at the frightening power of the Dao Vein.
Though the space was filled with primordial energy exceeding the rules of this Heaven and Earth, Ding Huan couldn't cultivate here.
The Gray Sea was indeed not a suitable place for cultivation.
The fire magma vent expanded to a circle of a hundred thousand miles before finally stopping.
Ding Huan then realized that standing in the Gray Sea, he was unaffected by the deathly aura there.
Indeed, a Ninth-Level Immortal Body was formidable.
He could feel the vanishing aura of death sweeping across his body but it couldn't harm him.
Ding Huan thoroughly enjoyed this feeling.
Even an Immortal Emperor couldn't stay calm and collected in the Gray Sea like him.
This was related to cultivation level, but more importantly, to physical strength.
He could return to the Great Immortal Domain now.
Ding Huan instinctively glanced at the Soul Devouring Ring on his finger and was surprised to find the weakest spot in the Boundary pointed by the Soul Devouring Ring was exactly where he was.
Of course, the power unleashed by the Dao Vein was immensely great.
It could definitely tear through a Boundary.
When the Boundary was torn earlier, he retreated hastily and didn't notice.
Should he give it a try?
Ding Huan hesitated for a moment but decided to try.
He wasn't planning to leave, just to see if he could blast through here.
If he could break through this Boundary, he'd know how to leave next time.
If not, he'd need to create some Breaking Realm Array Plates to help.
The Reincarnation Spear was summoned, and it rolled up a beam of gun light and blasted out.
Boom!
A black hole suddenly appeared in the originally void space, and spatial blade lights swept in.
Ding Huan had wandered in the Void for so long, he knew this was the Void.
Ding Huan rejoiced, indeed, as long as he found the weakest spot of the Boundary, he could tear through it with one shot.
This time, the power unleashed by the Dao Vein was so strong that it tore through this space.
Thus, tearing through the Boundary again was rather simple, as it hadn't fully recovered.
Without the Dao Vein in the future, even if the Soul Devouring Ring found the weakest spot of the Boundary, it wouldn't be so easy to tear through a Boundary space.
Just as Ding Huan thought of this, an overwhelming force swept in, pulling him towards the torn void rift.
Ding Huan was shocked, he hadn't planned to leave Pangu Great World yet.
He still had many things to do here, he needed to visit the Chaos Zone and find Chi Feitao of Yihai Palace.
The old fellow claimed to know information about the Nine Heavens, he couldn't miss this.
Even if he was to leave Pangu Great World, he couldn't just choose any place to leave.
Fortunately, Ding Huan was now at the ninth level of the Immortal Body, and at the peak of the fifth level of Luo Tian Immortal, he could manage to control his body against the sudden sucking force of the void vortex.
Escaping the sucking force from the void rift, Ding Huan watched as the void rift he had torn began to close slowly, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
Just as he was about to summon the Cosmic Pot, a deathly aura silently attacked him from behind.
Ding Huan felt a chill in his heart, he twisted his waist effortfully, but still was struck by a blade light, causing a bloody wound.
If it weren't for his ninth-level Immortal Body, this sword would have pierced through his body and torn his Dantian.
As Ding Huan's Divine Will scanned out, he saw a man standing on a giant iron scale, with a longsword in hand, which transformed into several dozen feet of blade light, striking towards his neck again.
The iron scale beneath his feet seemed alive.
The man's face was full of towering anger, a bewildered observer might think Ding Huan had initiated the sneak attack.
Ding Huan was furious, this guy was obviously an Immortal King, yet he despicably sneaked up on him, a Luo Tian Immortal.
Not only did he sneak up on him, but the attack also contained poison.
Using poison against him, hmm, this guy picked the right person.
Want to kill him? Naturally, he had to fight back, the Reincarnation Spear rolled up a screen of gun light, enveloping the opponent.
This attacker was only at the initial stage of Immortal King, and his aura was unstable, obviously attracted by something.
Having gone through so much, Ding Huan quickly understood the situation.
He was sure this guy hiding in the billions of void swamps was Shi Li, the shameless scum who possessed Fu Yuxing, killed his master, destroyed his sect, raped his Dao companion...
This was a thoroughly evil being.
Shi Li appeared here because of the Dao Vein.
The Dao Vein exploded, Shi Li sensed its aura and attacked furiously, an outsider might think the Dao Vein belonged to Shi Li.
Was the Dao Vein Shi Li's?
Ding Huan understood that perhaps in Shi Li's eyes, the Dao Vein indeed belonged to him.
Rong Xiyu thought the Dao Vein left by her father was unknown to others.
However, Ding Huan believed that given her intelligence compared to Shi Li's, hiding the Dao Vein from him was almost impossible.
So Shi Li had long known about the Dao Vein.
Even Shi Li knew Rong Xiyu wasn't dead but hiding in the Thirty-Three Paths.
Knowing the existence of the Dao Vein, Shi Li didn't take it away for one reason.
Shi Li lacked the ability to move the Dao Vein.
This didn't mean Shi Li couldn't open the Dao Vein's hidden prohibition, but he lacked any treasure to conceal the Dao Vein.
Shi Li's killing of the old Sect Master might partly be due to the Dao Vein.
Because he needed to seize the Heaven and Earth Scale.
The Heaven and Earth Scale was an ultimate treasure, if space was involved, it could conceal the Dao Vein's aura.
The difficulty lay in that the Heaven and Earth Scale wasn't easy to refine, an ordinary Immortal King would need at least hundreds of years.
Not everyone possessed Ding Huan's Great Universe Technique and Sea of Consciousness Dao Universe.
Ding Huan's Sea of Consciousness Dao Universe integrated billions of laws, these laws combined with the Great Universe Technique allowed him to refine the Cosmic Pot and Dusk Drum.
Even so, Ding Huan refined them intermittently for decades.
"Boom!" The Reincarnation Spear's gun screen collided with the opponent's blade light, scattering the blade light, and Shi Li's domain shattered at the same time.
Shi Li was shocked, he assumed with Ding Huan not at the Immortal King level, his sneak attack would be successful.
Yet his sneak attack failed, and in this clash, his domain shattered, and his blade light dispersed.
This turned out he wasn't his match?
How could it be?
The opponent was clearly a Luo Tian Immortal? How could a Luo Tian Immortal counter him, an Immortal King?
He was indeed an initial stage Immortal King, but not an ordinary one; he was stepping into the Immortal King stage for the second time, with highly condensed Taoist Rhythm.
As he thought of this, Ding Huan's violent Starry Sky Domain blasted out, the tip of the Reincarnation Spear exploded, and strands of deathly aura were pulled by Ding Huan's Reincarnation Spear.
This was the Gray Sea, filled with the Death Dao Rhythm.
One blast of deathly aura instantly formed power.
Even a late-stage Immortal King would avoid its edge.
Shi Li's scalp went numb; he sensed if he didn't escape now, once Ding Huan's domain completely locked him, his fate would be sealed.
He once escaped from several Immortal Kings due to his keen intuition.
Regretting would come later, now was the time to flee.
Shi Li crazily turned and rushed towards the still closing boundary space.
"Pff!"
A burst of blood light, Shi Li's back was torn open by the gun light from the Reincarnation Spear, blood splashed out.
Yet he had reached the boundary rift.
Ding Huan wouldn't let this guy go.
Not to mention the earlier sneak attack, just the Heaven and Earth Scale at his feet was a treasure Ding Huan wouldn't miss.
Who wouldn't want more of such treasures?
As Ding Huan approached the boundary rift, he was swept away by the violent void vortex.
This time, Ding Huan didn't resist, he focused on Shi Li, determined not to turn back until Shi Li was dead.
