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

"That Crystal Ball Jiang Yiyu gave you, is it by your side now? It's the one where Qin Qin, the Holy Daughter, saved you, and later your senior brother used the Break Position Talisman to escape."

Ding Huan believed that with his perception of the Dao Rhythm Law, the authenticity of this Crystal Ball would be apparent at a glance.

"Yes, here it is." As Bai Yue spoke, he had already taken out a Crystal Ball sealed with a Forbidden Lock and handed it to Ding Huan.

Ding Huan took the Crystal Ball and swept through it with his Divine Will.

Inside the Crystal Ball, a middle-aged man in yellow clothes was expressing gratitude for the life-saving grace to a woman in a purple dress.

The woman then took out a Break Position Talisman and handed it to the man, telling him to leave quickly.

After expressing gratitude once more, the man then activated the Break Position Talisman to leave through a spatial rupture.

"Mr. Ding, I have repeatedly reviewed this image, and the yellow-clothed man is indeed my senior brother, Emperor Zhong. That woman is none other than Qin Qin, the former Holy Daughter of Tian Huan Palace.

I can't be certain if it's truly Qin Qin, but my senior brother's Dao Rhythm fluctuations can't be mistaken."

Seeing Ding Huan staring at the Crystal Ball intently, Bai Yue proactively explained.

Ding Huan ignored Bai Yue and continued to scrutinize the Imaging Crystal Ball.

After a while, he turned to Bai Yue: "What is your senior brother's cultivation level?"

Bai Yue was taken aback. Although he didn't know why Ding Huan was asking about his senior brother's cultivation, he still replied, "Eighth Transformation Saint Realm."

Ding Huan asked in surprise, "Daoist Yue, you have already reached the Creation Dao Realm as a Saint, and your senior brother is only an Eighth Transformation Saint? Is his talent poor?"

Bai Yue shook his head, "No, his talent is excellent, far surpassing mine. The Mortal Dao I initially cultivated was created by him..."

Upon hearing of the Mortal Dao, Ding Huan instinctively glanced at Guan Huan.

They too cultivated Mortal Dao; could it be a legacy of the same lineage?

No wonder Emperor Zhong and Guan Huan were life-and-death comrades.

Guan Huan noticed Ding Huan's thoughts and quickly said, "Mr. Ding, although Brother Bai Yue and I both cultivate Mortal Dao, we are not from the same lineage.

We met at the Little Heavenly Ruins. Because we both cultivated Mortal Dao and got along well, we became friends."

Bai Yue added, "The reason my senior brother's cultivation speed wasn't as fast as mine is because he got too caught up in things..."

"How so?"

Ding Huan casually asked, although that wasn't the question he intended to ask.

Bai Yue sighed, "Back then my senior brother was extraordinarily talented and created the Mortal Great Dao. I admired him so much that I decided to cultivate his Mortal Great Dao too..."

"Then he should be your grandmaster." Ding Huan remarked wryly.

Bai Yue shook his head, "When my senior brother was proving the Dao as a Saint, there was a problem. He pinpointed the crux, which was that since one is mortal, reincarnation is necessary.

Additionally, at that time, he was almost killed due to a conspiracy, so he decisively chose to reincarnate. After reincarnation, he indeed succeeded as a Saint.

When we met, he was already a Seventh Transformation Saint, and his cultivation was slightly stronger than mine. After learning his identity, I insisted on calling him grandmaster.

But he said, since he's reincarnated and I wasn't fully cultivating his Mortal Dao, he only allowed me to call him senior brother.

Later, when I reached the Eternal Life Realm, he was still stuck in the Eighth Transformation Saint, and I advised him to switch to cultivating my version of the Mortal Dao.

He was too intelligent and very prideful; even though he was stuck in the Eighth Transformation Saint Realm, he was unwilling to switch to my Mortal Dao, insisting on his own Great Dao."

Ding Huan chuckled, "In that sense, your talent might be somewhat higher than your senior brother's."

Previously, Bai Yue had said Emperor Zhong was much smarter than him, but now Ding Huan knew it was Bai Yue being modest.

He didn't know Emperor Zhong personally, so there was no need to be tactful.

Bai Yue shook his head, "No, the Mortal Dao I cultivate wasn't created by me, but by another individual who also counts as my senior brother."

Ding Huan, having seen Guan Huan's Mortal Dao, no longer held any great expectations for the Mortal Dao.

So when Bai Yue said he was cultivating another kind of Mortal Dao, he wasn't particularly interested.

Since another Mortal Dao was created and it's his senior brother, it's not surprising.

"Daoist Yue, I'm certain Jiang Yiyu and that Holy Daughter Qin Qin have deceived you." Ding Huan put down the Imaging Crystal Ball.

Bai Yue frowned, "There's absolutely no problem with this Crystal Ball."

He could hardly believe he was unable to discern the authenticity of an Imaging Crystal Ball.

Ding Huan nodded, "Indeed, there's nothing wrong with this Crystal Ball, and the image is genuine."

"Then what do you mean?"

Not only Bai Yue, but also Guan Huan looked at Ding Huan in confusion.

After hearing Ding Huan's explanation, he also felt there might be something off about the Imaging Crystal Ball, but couldn't pinpoint exactly what.

Now that Ding Huan said there's nothing wrong with the Imaging Crystal Ball, he was equally perplexed.

Ding Huan activated the Imaging Crystal Ball again, pointing inside and saying, "The problem lies with the Space Law fluctuation marks. In other words, the issue is with the Break Position Talisman."

Those are definitely not fluctuation marks induced by a Break Position Talisman.

If Ding Huan hadn't encountered the Eternal Life Talisman and wasn't deeply familiar with the Heaven and Earth Laws, he wouldn't have recognized it either.

After all, this is merely the Dao Rhythm fluctuation recorded as an image, not the actual fluctuation.

These Crystal Ball images can record portions of Law and Dao Rhythm fluctuations, but only to a very minuscule extent.

If it were a complete Heaven and Earth Rule fluctuation, neither Ding Huan nor Bai Yue and Guan Huan would have been able to discern it.

The movement transmitted by this Imaging Crystal Ball isn't subtle, and its effect matches exactly with that of a Break Position Talisman.

But the Law Fluctuation caused by the Break Position Talisman obviously didn't tear the plane apart.

Ding Huan had studied the Break Position Talisman and could even refine the Breakthrough Talisman himself.

He naturally knew that when the Break Position Talisman tore the plane, the Space Laws alternated very violently and clearly.

The alternation of Space Laws by this Break Position Talisman seemed somewhat false and obscure, and had not even alternated.

How swift and profound is the alteration of Space Laws transmitted by the Break Position Talisman? How is it possible that there's hardly any alternation?

That's the first point.

Besides this, there's an even bigger flaw.

Generally, when a person is teleported away by the Break Position Talisman, the Dao Rhythm around the cultivator is directly covered by the Break Position Dao Principle, leaving not the slightest bit.

Unless they are top-tier powerful cultivators.

The Dao Rhythm can surpass the replacement of planar conversion Dao Principles.

Emperor Zhong is obviously not such a top-tier powerful cultivator.

In the Imaging Crystal Ball, when the Break Position Talisman teleported away Emperor Zhong, the Great Dao Rhythm around him was very clear, which is actually impossible.

So at most, Emperor Zhong was only teleported a very short distance, not even close to a breakthrough teleportation, how could it be a break position teleportation?

Guan Huan vaguely understood after Ding Huan's reminder.

Bai Yue still didn't quite understand.

Ding Huan simply said, "I can refine the Breakthrough Talisman, and I have some insight into the making of the Break Position Talisman.

I can tell you clearly that the Dao Rhythm fluctuation when Emperor Zhong was teleported wasn't from a Break Position Talisman, but a short-distance teleportation."

"I also kind of saw that, this Dao Rhythm fluctuation indeed doesn't much resemble the teleportation Dao Rhythm of the Break Position Talisman," Guan Huan said with a serious expression.

Bai Yue also woke up to this realization, his face looking very grim.

That means Emperor Zhong was harmed.

"I want to find that treacherous woman." Bai Yue could no longer sit still, wishing desperately to search for Jiang Yiyu.

The Imaging Crystal Ball was given to him by Jiang Yiyu.

Qin Qin was also sought by Jiang Yiyu.

This didn't come without conditions; he sacrificed a great deal.

Because of this, he gave Jiang Yiyu many things, including an Innate Treasure.

He also owed Jiang Yiyu a huge favor.

Otherwise, how could he have gone to stand up for Jiang Yiyu and help the Divine Woman Saint Sect find a territory?

Not only did this offend people, but it also harmed his own principles.

Guan Huan stopped Bai Yue:

"Brother Zhong may not necessarily be in trouble; he might have been teleported to some place and imprisoned. After all, the Tian Huan Palace was also destroyed, so those women may not have had time to act against Brother Zhong.

And we can't go to the Divine Woman Saint Sect right now because we might not be their match."

Bai Yue looked at Guan Huan in surprise.

Then how was he rescued?

Guan Huan explained, "Zuo Qiong is at the Divine Woman Saint Sect, he might have stepped into the quasi-Fourth Step, and if that's true, going there is like courting death with no meaning.

Bai Yue, brother, you're still not fully recovered from your injuries; wait until you have recovered your strength. Let's listen to Brother Ding Huan's opinion on what to do now."

Seeing Bai Yue and Guan Huan both looking at him, Ding Huan said, "Lao Guan is right; our current strength is still too weak.

That Zuo Qiong is not simple, and even if Lao Guan and I join forces, we might not be a match for him. If we force him to join hands with Chang Yun, we'll die even faster.

If Emperor Zhong is still alive, a few decades or a hundred years don't matter. If Emperor Zhong has fallen, hurrying there is meaningless too.

My suggestion is that we find a place to retreat and improve our cultivation. Daoist Bai..."

Bai Yue quickly clasped his fists, "Mr. Ding, Lao Guan and I are life-and-death comrades; you should just call me by my name. Calling me Daoist Bai feels a bit distant."

"Alright."

Ding Huan nodded and continued, "Bai Yue, you should now think about proving the Great Dao's Second Step.

If I can reach the Eternal Life Realm here, the three of us together should be able to confront Zuo Qiong head-on."

Bai Yue shook his head, "I know my own situation; after reaching the Creation Dao Realm, I've hit the extreme. Unless I meet my senior brother, my Great Dao might be stuck here for a long time."

Ding Huan laughed heartily, "Don't worry, when the time comes we can cultivate together, maybe I can help you find a solution."

Even though Ding Huan spoke modestly, he believed in his heart that he should be able to help Bai Yue.

As his cultivation grows higher, his understanding of the formation and origin of the universe becomes clearer.

Isn't the Great Dao like this too?

The origin of all Great Dao cultivation starts with the endless fundamental Laws.

As long as Bai Yue believes in him and allows him to perceive the root of Bai Yue's Great Dao, he might be able to find a way out for Bai Yue through the Heaven and Earth Laws.

"Brother Bai Yue, believe in Ding Huan's words, I'm sure that in understanding the Heaven and Earth Laws, even I'm not as good as Brother Ding Huan."

Guan Huan, being an honest person, completely trusted Ding Huan's words.
