Chapter 243: The Hunt in the Realm of the True God

    Ding Huan's heart moved. Although he didn't take these smelly fish and rotten shrimp of Yanyue school seriously, and didn't care about this seven-level defense array, many times, complacency is the starting point of defeat.

    He recognized the cultivator who just shook his head; his name is Shen Guan.

    When they were in the Great Ravine Valley, he had given Teng Guan a Quickness Form there.

    No matter from which angle to consider, Teng Guan has no reason to harm him.

    Teng Guan knows that he has destroyed the Shuanghuan Sect and indicated that he should not enter the Yanue Sect, indicating that the dangers within the Yanue Sect exceed a certain level.

    Thinking about this, Ding Huan's departure gun was raised again, and the gun light that rolled up throughout the sky.

    The sect elder who was in the forefront immediately felt a deathly aura pressing down on him, and he panicked, retreating hurriedly.

    Bang! Ding Huan's departure gun hit the sect's defense array again.

    "Ding Huan, you're looking for death..."

    A newly promoted elder with true Dan period in the rear, roared and grabbed his liuli kang to attack Ding Huan.

    He had just advanced to the late True Dan level, and his strength surged.

    He really didn't believe that a guy who had come from the common people's world to the Daoist cultivation world only a few years ago could be that powerful.

    Ding Huan's departure gun hit the defense array. The True Dan cultivator found that Ding Huan didn't even bother to look at him, which made him furious in his heart.

    But as he followed, he was startled to find that he had been locked in by a terrifying killing aura. Before he could beg for mercy, a blade of light sliced down from his brow.

    Puff! At the same time, Ding Huan's departure gun hit the heart of the Yanue Sect's defense array.

    The elder at the true Dan realm sacrificed his life to block Ding Huan's departure gun, but he couldn't stop it even a little.

    Some elders could clearly hear the sect's defense array emitting a series of creaking sounds. If they didn't do something about it, the next moment would see Ding Huan shatter the Yanue Sect's defense array.

    Seeing Ding Huan slice through the sect's transmission elder and roll away the storage bag, the elder in charge of external affairs, Zhuo Jun, could no longer control his rage:

    "All together, let's kill him."

    He didn't believe that Ding Huan alone could deal with them. He also had a YuanHun realm elder on his side.

    "Stop." Before everyone could strike, the sect elder who protected the sect and Zhen again opened their mouths.

    His face was still pale. Although Ding Huan hadn't attacked him just now, he had felt Ding Huan's terrifying killing aura.

    He knew that he was a cultivator at the YuanHun realm and couldn't bear such pressure. He was even certain that even if the entire Yanue Sect were to attack Ding Huan, the end would still be a total defeat.

    Unless someone from the sect stepped forward to intervene, he also understood clearly that as long as Ding Huan didn't enter the Yanue Sect, that person would never come out to confront Ding Huan.

    Elder Zhu Jun, the elder in charge of external affairs, looked at He Qian completely baffled:

    "He Qian, what are you doing?"

    He Qian glanced coldly at Zhuo Jun and then bowed to Ding Huan.

    "We will compensate for your losses. Can we have an incense stick's worth of time?"

    Ding Huan said indifferently, "Even two incense sticks of time isn't a problem. I think I can wait for up to three incense sticks."

    "Thank you very much, Ding Sect Master. The elders and disciples will immediately withdraw..."

    "Bang!" As He Qian's voice had not yet fallen, Ding Huan's departure gun once again struck the core of the seven-level defense array.

    "Ding Sect Master, you just said it was no problem." He Qian's face changed.

    Ding Huan smiled and continued to pull up the killing aura with his departure gun:

    "Of course there's no problem. I should be able to break through your defense array within three incense sticks, so you have plenty of time to prepare. Once you're ready and hand over the items to me, I'll naturally leave."

    Bang! Bang! Bang!

    This time, Ding Huan's departure gun blasted out three killing gun lights that hit the heart of the defense array.

    He Qian's heart jumped. He knew that not even three incense sticks were enough. With Ding Huan's method of attack, the Yanue Sect's defense array would likely be torn apart within just one incense stick.

    Let's not talk about whether Yanue Sect would survive after Ding Huan breaks through the defense array. Even if Ding Huan doesn't do anything to Yanue Sect, the sect would no longer be able to set up a seven-level sect defense array.

    Some people have heard that Ding Huan is a sixth-level array master. It seems that this may very well be true.

    "Li Elder, you must immediately take people to the storeroom to prepare the items for compensation..."

    Each time He Qian sees Ding Huan's departure gun striking down, his mind feels like it has been hit. He takes out a jade plate and hands it to a tall-faced man standing by his side, urgency in his tone.

    Li Elder also understands the urgency of the situation without He Qian's reminder.

    It would be too late to say anything after Ding Huan breaks through the sect's defense array.

    judging from this pressure, it won't take long for Ding Huan to break through the sect's defense array.

    As Li Elder goes to the storeroom to get the items, He Qian also begins to repair the array.

    Since they dare not confront Ding Huan, they can only passively repair the array.

    Unfortunately, his level of array mastery is far from Ding Huan's.

    It looks like he is constantly throwing array flags, but in reality, the protection effect of this large array is quite limited.

    When Ding Huan pounded a crack into the sect's defense array, Li Elder finally arrived.

    At this time, Ding Huan really stopped attacking the Yanue Sect's defense array. His gaze turned towards the direction where Li Elder had come from.

    Ding Huan wasn't looking at Li Elder, but at a gray-robed man following Li Elder.

    This guy definitely isn't a spiritual realm cultivator, but a cultivator who surpasses the spiritual realm.

    Beyond the virtual spirit realm, only true spirit realm cultivators are left.

    Finally, Ding Huan understood why Shen Guan had reminded him; it was because the Yanue Sect had brought such a strong cultivator.

    Spiritual realm cultivators are not found in the Daoist cultivation world.

    If that's the case, then the other party must have come from the flying realm.

    "Are you Ding Huan? The master of Blue Star Sect?"

    The gray-robed man walked up to Ding Huan and swept his gaze over him, looking for something with a hint of appraisal.

    Ding Huan said indifferently:

    "Very good. I am the master of Blue Star Sect. Have the items been brought?"

    Li Elder looked at this true spirit realm cultivator and saw no expression on his face. He could only hand a storage bag to He Qian.

    He Qian scanned the storage bag with his spiritual thoughts and handed it over to Ding Huan:

    "Ding Sect Master, this is the item you requested."

    Ding Huan said indifferently:

    "This is not what I want. This is a voluntary compensation from the owner of the Yiwan Knife."

    After saying that, Ding Huan's spiritual power rolled, and the storage bag in He Qian's hand had already landed in Ding Huan's hands.

    Putting away the storage bag, Ding Huan stepped onto the departure gun again, merging with it. He disappeared into a shadow line.

    "Thank you, Senior, for coming to assist. Otherwise, Ding Huan would never settle so easily."

    He Qian bowed respectfully to the true spirit realm cultivator, his tone sincere.

    The gray-robed true spirit realm cultivator glanced at He Qian and said indifferently:

    "Even if I hadn't shown up, he would still have taken the things and left. I didn't assist with anything; there's no need for you to speak with a dishonest heart. I also need to return to the realm of ascension. Farewell."

    After saying that, the gray-robed man stepped out of the Yanue Sect's defense array and disappeared in an instant.

    He Qian watched the back of the gray-robed man as he disappeared, a mocking smile tugging at the corner of his mouth. Then he spoke in a harsh voice:

    "From today on, I will act as the interim master of Yanue Sect until a new master is appointed. Yanue Sect will not allow any further internal strife due to the master's matters."

    Beforehand, He Qian was unwilling to serve as the master, which led to a fierce competition among a group of true Dan cultivators.

    Today, Ding Huan's appearance made him realize a truth: without a master emerging, the Yanue Sect would inevitably face defeat and ruin.

    Since that is the case, he might as well take on the position of the master to prevent others from coveting it.

    ...

    Ding Huan hadn't gone far when he felt someone following him.

    Without asking, Ding Huan knew that the person tracking him was the true spirit realm cultivator from before.

    Ding Huan turned a corner and came to an abandoned place, where he threw down dozens of array flags.

    "Ha ha, you are quite meticulous. Are you here to set up a death trap?"

    A soft "heh heh" sound echoed, followed by the sight of the gray-robed man from the Yanue Sect appearing in front of Ding Huan.

    "Who are you?" Ding Huan retreated several steps as if he had seen a ghost, and the incomplete array flags in his hand fell to the ground.

    "I am from the realm of ascent called Huangshen Sect. My name is Qi Long. I know you have great proficiency in array magic, so I will not give you the chance to set up an array. You can rest assured."

    The gray-robed man spoke to Ding Huan with a very calm and composed tone.

    "What do you mean by following me?"

    Ding Huan took a deep breath, trying to keep his tone calm, but the unease in his voice was still noticeable to the other party.

    Qi Long smiled slightly:

    "Hand over your storage ring to me, and tell me where you found these things in the mortal realm."

    Ding Huan was stunned. He was really confused this time. The other party said something about finding things in the mortal realm, but he had no idea what that meant.

    "There is a woman named Qingyu who says that your prowess is because you discovered an ancient cave."

    Qi Long's words made Ding Huan understand what was going on. It seemed that it was this slutty woman who had planned against him.

    Ding Huan lifted his hand and threw out over a dozen array flags.

    "Die..." Seeing that Ding Huan ignored his words and dared to continue setting up the array, Qi Long was enraged.

    A pair of meteor hammers were launched, but he had self-restraint and avoided Ding Huan's head.

    Bang bang bang!

    A series of explosions resounded, and the space seemed to change in an instant.

    Ding Huan disappeared, and Qi Long discovered that his meteor hammer had hit a defensive array. Everywhere was the sound of true energy fluctuations and impacts, as if the space itself was resounding.

    Is this a fifth-level defensive array?

    He chased after Ding Huan all the way here, and Ding Huan had no time to set up a defensive array. When was this fifth-level defensive array set up?

    No, Qi Long suddenly realized, there was an existing defensive array here, and Ding Huan came here only to trigger this defensive array.

    Qi Long was well aware that if he wanted to kill Ding Huan, he would first have to break the array.

    A mere fifth-level defensive array was nothing to him; it could stop him once, but that didn't mean it could stop him twice.

    As Qi Long prepared to attack the defense array with all his might, a wave of killing lights swept over.

    Qi Long immediately came to his senses, realizing that this place not only had a fifth-level defensive array but also a fifth-level entanglement array and a fifth-level killing array.
