When the star mountain in the Dantian was fully formed, resembling a towering peak in a map of rivers and mountains, Ding Huan opened his eyes.
He broke through the star cloud realm and came to a completely new realm.
Ding Huan was very clear about where his current realm came from and where it was heading.
When his Dantian formed a continuous chain of star mountains again, it was the time for him to cross into the next realm. He saw his next realm, which would form a great dao star.
Currently, he is in the realm of condensing star mountains from star cloud accumulation, preparing for the future formation of stars.
From now on, this will be known as the Realm of Star Concretion.
His Realm of Star Concretion is equivalent to the True Dan realm of practitioners in this universe. Once he condenses his Dao Star, it will be equivalent to the Yuan Soul realm.
Ding Huan drew out the Separation Gun, and with a casual sweep of his long spear in hand, he summoned the fierce killing aura.
If he were to deal with Guo Hua at this moment, there would be no need for him to set up any ambush formation. Furthermore, he would not need Genetic Poison Mist.
Click! A distant boulder was shattered into pieces by Ding Huan's casual shot.
Ding Huan was taken aback again.
Because the boulder's shattered pieces were too strange, a broken stone vortex first formed in the center before being crushed under Ding Huan's Separation Gun.
This was because his divine mind had also been swept up by the killing aura of the Separation Gun.
He had intended to observe the subtle changes in the shot, but inadvertently, it produced this effect.
The vortex was definitely not caused by the killing aura of the Separation Gun, but by his divine mind.
His divine mind had been immersed in the cosmic vortex, pondering his grand cosmic technique, so his divine mind, without his conscious effort, carried the killing aura of the cosmic vortex.
Others' divine minds cannot exist in the vortex even for a breath, but his divine mind has been able to endure within this cosmic vortex for over a dozen days.
His divine mind continuously refined itself as it followed the movement of the cosmic vortex, gaining a unique killing aura unique to the cosmic vortex.
The reason for this is that his divine mind would have been torn apart by the cosmic vortex and unable to exist if it did not produce this killing aura.
This is a great killing weapon!
Ding Huan's heart was filled with excitement. If he could produce such a vortex killing aura with his divine mind during combat, he could directly collapse the enemy's killing domain.
Or the enemy's sorcery and divine power, his divine mind vortex could also destroy.
Thinking of this, Ding Huan brought his long spear down once more towards a boulder.
This time, Ding Huan did not use his divine mind vortex. The killing aura generated by the Separation Gun easily turned the boulder into rubble.
Then, Ding Huan unleashed the vortex killing aura with his divine mind, as he thrust the Separation Gun towards the third boulder.
"Click!" The boulder shattered, just like the first one, a broken stone vortex appeared in the center first under the vortex killing aura, and then it split apart from the middle.
Indeed, Ding Huan knew that he was caught in a trap, which was why he had not noticed how powerful his divine mind vortex was.
This can be considered a self-invented skill or cultivation technique, right?
During combat, if a sudden divine mind vortex killing aura comes out, it can disrupt the enemy's cultivation techniques and killing domain.
Taking advantage of the enemy's brief moment of weakness, he would have a good chance of killing them.
From now on, this skill will be known as the Vortex Killing Art?
The name is too earthy, "Nian-Sha"? It's not very attractive.
How about calling it Huanghua Kill? Ding Huan was quite satisfied with his own creativity.
The reason he suddenly thought of the words "Huanghua" (yellow flower) is because the character "Nian" (think) in "Nian-Sha" (thinking kill) reminded him of the phrase "The curtain rolls in the west wind, and people are thinner than yellow flowers."
Although the characters "Nian" (think) and "Liangfeng" (west wind) are unrelated, and the sound is also different, Ding Huan forced them to be connected for the sake of this name.
Huanghua Kill is convenient to use, but the more powerful the opponent's cultivation technique or killing domain is, the more divine mind he will consume.
This ultimate move must be reserved for critical moments.
"Ding Dao Friend, congratulations on your cultivation being completed." Ji Xinting's voice came through the divine mind at a timely moment.
Clearly, he had seen Ding Huan create a self-invented skill.
Actually, he didn't know what kind of self-invented skill Ding Huan had created. He could sense that Ding Huan's skill was not simple.
Ding Huan was in a good mood, plus he was sure that Ji Xinting had no ability to kill him at the moment. So he simply bowed and said:
"Thank you, Ji Dao Friend. The last time, you secretly attacked me in front, and I took your things in the back. We can say our debts have canceled each other out."
As Ji Xinting was the first strongest person in the three heavens starland, and since the other party showed a desire for friendship, Ding Huan did not want to become enemies with him.
Moreover, in the interactions with Ji Xinting so far, Ding Huan had not suffered any losses.
"Ding Dao Friend, I have a favor that truly needs your help. I am humbly requesting it of you."
Ji Xinting was pinned down by the Feiyin Sword, and he could only send his voice through his divine mind, unable to move at all.
"Ji Dao Friend, I am very clear about my own strength and weight. If you need me to go to the ascension realm to notify the Wu Sheng Zong and ask them to save you, I am powerless at the moment."
"Perhaps one day when my strength is sufficient, I can help you deliver a message."
Ding Huan spoke the truth. He didn't say that he couldn't go to the Ascension Realm now; even if he could, he wouldn't deliver this message. It would only bring him trouble.
Ji Xinting ridiculed himself with a laugh:
"Wu Sheng Zong? If Wu Sheng Zong learns of my current predicament, they might come to kill me on the spot. Therefore, I said thank you, not to flatter you, but truly to express my gratitude."
Ding Huan remained silent, simply watching Ji Xinting. He knew that Ji Xinting had more to say.
Ding Huan didn't respond. He just looked at Ji Xinting, knowing that Ji Xinten had more to say.
He wants to establish his own sect, and that must include the Cangjian Mountain. It's a perfect place for him to cultivate the Grand Cosmic Art.
As long as his cultivation continues to improve and he acquires Cangjian Mountain, his sect will develop rapidly.
In order to obtain Cangjian Mountain, he has to face Ji Xinten directly. At the very least, he needs to deal with Ji Xinten's trouble so that he can safely retrieve Cangjian Mountain.
Ji Xinting's tone became more sincere:
"I have two choices now. The first is to leave my yuan soul behind and find someone to be reborn into. The second is to seek a top-grade treasure from the heavens and earth, such as the Xian Zhan flower, to reshape my body."
Ding Huan had suspected that Ji Xinten's entire body was corroded by toxins long ago.
Even if he had fused with the Huazhi Gene Potion, without creating the Grand Cosmic Art before that, within a month, his physical body would be corroded by the poisonous mist here.
How many years has Ji Xinting been here? It might be a couple of centuries for sure.
One can only say that it's incredible this old man has managed to survive until now.
"Indeed, when you first arrived, I had intended to take possession of your body."
Ding Huan was not surprised by Ji Xinting's words. Even if Ji Xinting were to take possession of his body now, he would not be surprised.
Who can come here? Even if Ji Xinten wants to take over someone else, there must be an opportunity.
Now that his Grand Cosmic Art has formed and he has refined the Star Mountain, even though Ji Xinten's cultivation is high, as long as he dares to take possession of him, Ding Huan will make this old man know why the flowers are so red.
Seeing that Ding Huan did not speak, Ji Xinting transmitted his words with a wry smile:
"I have long suspected that you knew my purpose, so I was in a hurry to escape when we first met. And this time, you should not be afraid of me taking over your body, so you stopped here to listen to me blabber."
Or that you came to Cangjian Mountain not just to advance your cultivation, but for something else.”
Ding Huan felt a sense of admiration in his heart. This guy is really amazing, he can guess everything.
"I just want to ask for your help. It's not that I want you to go out and summon people to save me. I just need you to take away the Feiyan Sword. The Feiyan Sword belongs to you, I don't want it."
Ding Huan looked at Ji Xinten with a smile that seemed to imply something else:
"Old Ji, first of all, although the Feiyan Sword is on you, it's what's pinning you down; it's not your property. So if I can take away the Feiyan Sword, then it naturally belongs to me."
Secondly, I am not capable of taking away the Feiyan Sword right now, and I am well aware of that.
Thirdly, I saved you, so now you either want to take possession of me or someone else. No matter which one it is, it's not something I want to do.
Don't even mention that you have the Xian Zhan flower; I won't believe it."
Ji Xinten had gained some understanding of Ding Huan, and he tried his best to make his transmission more trustworthy:
"Ding Dao Friend, you should know that it's akin to suicide for me to possess your body, given your mastery of the Dao. I know there is a place where the Xian Zhan flower exists, but it's also irrelevant."
I only want to ask you, Ding Dao Friend, what brings you to this place. If I can help you, I hope we can exchange benefits."
Ding Huan was hesitant for a moment.
Before he created the Huahua Kill, he would never have hesitated, because he didn't even consider it.
After learning the Huahua Kill, he claimed that he was unable to pull out the Feiyan Sword, but deep down, he still felt there was a sliver of hope in taking it away.
Ji Xinten continued to transmit his voice over:
"Ding Dao Friend, the reason why the Feiyan Sword has pinned me down here is due to two things. The first is that I have opened the poison veins of this place, and the second is that I tried to force the Feiyan Sword into becoming my sword slave..."
To make a divine sword into a sword slave? Ding Huan found it amusing, thinking that even with his strong power, Ji Xinting was being a bit too arrogant.
Just what is a poison vein?
"What is a poison vein?" Ding Huan asked.
Ji Xinting did not hide:
"The so-called poison vein is similar to the spirit veins you brought out, but it contains endless toxins of the heavens and earth."
Ding Huan was thinking if he could take the poison vein back and throw it into the place where He Heng Zhuanglong, the master of the Huahua Kill, secluded himself.
It must be said that Ji Xinting is a cunning old fox. As soon as Ding Huan hesitated, he understood what Ding Huan was thinking:
"Ding Dao Friend, if you want to obtain Cangjian Mountain, you cannot touch this poison vein."
Ding Huan was speechless. This old guy not only knows what he is thinking now but also knows his greed for Cangjian Mountain.
Is there a risk of being sold out by such an old fox in a deal?
"I want the poison mist here. Do you have any way?" Ding Huan was straightforward.
"Yes, I have one post-heaven treasure that is specifically designed to store these things. I can gift it to you for storing the poison mist. However, in addition to pulling out the Feiyan Sword, you must also agree to something else."
Ji Xinting said without hesitation.
As he said this, Ji Xinten seemed concerned that Ding Huan might still be hesitant about the Feiyan Sword and added another sentence:
"The Feiyan Sword, an immortal Dao treasure, recognizes its master. The reason I have been pinned down by the Feiyan Sword is that it does not want to recognize me as its master."
And, Ding Dao Friend, your great Dao is incredibly powerful. Perhaps you can make the Feiyan Sword recognize you as its master. Once the Feiyan Sword recognizes you, you will be able to easily pull it out."
