Post-Mythical Era: I don't want to die in the third reincarnation-Chapter 253 - 248: I’m Happy
"Crack!"
Under the Great Universe Technique, the Sea of Consciousness Star System emitted a cracking noise, giving Ding Huan a start.
He discovered that his star cluster was missing one star.
Originally, there were twelve small stars in his star cluster; now, one was missing, leaving eleven.
Along with this missing star, nine satellites that had been orbiting it were also gone.
Ding Huan quickly understood what had happened: the missing star had not disappeared, but had appeared in another area of his Sea of Consciousness.
This star, which had originally been a planet, now seemed to have become a permanent star, and the nine satellites it took with it had become its planets.
Ding Huan felt the fluctuations of his True Yuan and, indeed, they were more powerful than before.
It seemed this was his way of advancing.
Ding Huan was relieved and furiously absorbed Spiritual Energy to cultivate.
Months passed and, as Ding Huan had anticipated, a second planet split from the main star, once again forming a new star system.
Is this a fission of star systems?
Nevertheless, with each fission, Ding Huan clearly felt his strength surge by a level, and his Sea of Consciousness wildly expand.
Although still in the Star Realm, Ding Huan suspected that his Divine Will might surpass that of the True God Realm, almost reaching the Immortal Realm.
His strength might be far from that of an Immortal, even less that of the True God Realm.
However, his Great Universe Technique was a cultivation technique specifically created for developing the Sea of Consciousness and Divine Will; with each passing Cycle, his Sea of Consciousness would expand.
Ding Huan felt he needed to develop a Divine Will attack of his own, similar to his previous Yellow Bloom Slaughter.
He had used the Yellow Bloom Slaughter and easily helped Liu Yinyu kill Shi Jiantian.
The Yellow Bloom Slaughter was, after all, a supplementary attack; if he could directly use Divine Will to attack...
Like his previous Blade of Divine Will, which was too rudimentary and ineffective.
What if there were a Divine Will Ability like his Nine Divine Powers? Who could defend against that?
As Ding Huan considered how to create a Divine Will Ability, the aura in his Sea of Consciousness surged again, and another star split off.
Feeling his Sea of Consciousness expand again and his Divine Will grow, Ding Huan increasingly felt the need for a Divine Will Ability.
Snowflakes fell, and Ding Huan looked up at the sky.
This was a result of the intense murderous intent while he was formulating his Divine Will of Slaughter, causing snowflakes to condense in the space around him.
This reminded him of his Thousand Piles of Snow; his Divine Will Ability didn’t need to form a system like the Nine Powers, as long as it carried an unstoppable intent to slaughter like Thousand Piles of Snow...
Ding Huan’s Divine Will unconsciously condensed snowflakes, but before they could merge with his murderous aura, Ding Huan frowned.
Someone was attacking his Defense Array again; this time, it wasn’t the Sect’s Defense Array but that of Purple Garden Mountain.
His Defense Array was connected to a sensing array, allowing him to sense the intensity of the attacks.
Streams of Magical Treasure assaulted his Defense Array, and through the sensing array, Ding Huan felt a continuous drumming-like sound.
Moved, Ding Huan gathered his Divine Will into a giant Drum Mallet and forcefully slammed it into the Void.
Bang!
The Void trembled with a sound as if it were being torn apart.
Pain surged through Ding Huan’s Sea of Consciousness, but he disregarded it. His Divine Will gathered again, now forming a more distinct, solid Drum Mallet that smashed down.
Bang bang bang!
The tremors in the Void grew more intense, as if it were literally being ripped apart.
A Divine Will, solidified into a blade curtain, slashed down, and everything returned to calm.
Ding Huan opened his eyes and looked at the unchanged Void before him, filled with excitement.
This was the Divine Will of Slaughter he had perceived; how about the Blade of Divine Will now? The Blade of Divine Will, when properly used, could invisibly kill enemies.
His Divine Will had gathered, forming resounding drum sounds before condensing into a solid blade curtain.
Even a True God Realm being couldn’t withstand this kind of Divine Will attack, could they?
Imagine, in the midst of battle, suddenly being struck by the ferocious Drum Mallet without time to react, followed by a solid blade curtain...
What Primordial Spirit wouldn’t be cut by such an attack?
From now on, this Divine Power shall be called ’Drum Killing.’
"Divine Will gives birth to a thousand drum sounds, the blade cuts ten thousand souls."
As long as the Divine Will is strong enough, Drum Killing is a mass Divine Will power.
Another attack on Purple Garden Mountain was sensed.
Unlike last time, when two Immortal Realm beings had unintentionally attacked the Blue Star Sect’s Defense Array,
this time, the attack on Purple Garden Mountain was intentional.
The attackers were numerous; otherwise, his Defense Array wouldn’t be shaking so much.
Ding Huan raised his hand, and several Array Flags were thrown out, immediately producing an image before him.
There were at least a thousand people attacking the Defense Array, and in the outskirts of these attackers, Ding Huan even saw a Void God Realm being and two Primordial Soul Realm beings.
Heh, Ding Huan didn’t need to ask who these people were.
They must be from Purple Garden City; he had used an Array to protect Purple Garden Mountain, and these guys were still trying to break through his Defense Array.
That Void God Realm Cultivator hadn’t made a move yet, and Ding Huan wasn’t in a hurry either.
Let these guys break through the first layer of the Defense Array, then they’ll see what they get.
As soon as that Void God Realm Cultivator made a move, he’d be right there to meet him.
While he couldn’t handle a True God Realm being, Ding Huan was confident he could eliminate a Void God Realm being.
Ding Huan ignored these people and continued cultivating while perfecting his Divine Will Ability ’Drum Killing.’
...
Purple Garden Mountain.
Thousands of people attacked Ding Huan’s Protecting Array at the same time. Even if Ding Huan’s Protecting Array was strong, it couldn’t withstand the simultaneous attacks of so many people.
Moreover, during the attack of these thousand people, there was a Void God Realm expert directing them.
After a sustained attack for most of the day, a ’crack’ sound finally echoed.
Lu Yuan laughed heartily,
"Very good, you have broken through the defensive formation of Purple Garden Mountain. Everyone here will receive a Jade Plate to enter the trials in Purple Garden Mountain…"
According to Lu Yuan’s plan, he wanted to gather tens of thousands of people to attack the protective formation of Purple Garden Mountain at the same time.
However, his influence was limited, and the attraction of the Ascension Platform was far greater than that of Purple Garden Mountain.
Purple Garden Mountain offered a selective trial aimed at entry into the Ascension Realm, which could mean soaring to greater heights.
Therefore, only about a thousand people responded to Lu Yuan’s call.
Fortunately, these thousand people managed to break through the protective formation of Purple Garden Mountain.

But before Lu Yuan could breathe a sigh of relief, the space around them suddenly changed, and immediately, everyone was locked by a killing aura.
"This is a Level Six Killing Trap Array, run…"
A True Pill Realm cultivator who specialized in Array Dao recognized the level of the Killing Trap Array, turning white with fear.
He announced the level of the Protecting Array, hoping everyone would attack the Killing Trap Array together so that he could have a chance to escape.
Unfortunately, a Level Six Killing Trap Array was already beyond their ability to withstand.
There were only a dozen or so True Pill Realm cultivators here, with many more at the Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment Realms.
In just a short time, the space turned into a bloody mist, and almost all the cultivators who attacked Purple Garden Mountain were swept up by the Killing Trap Array.
Lu Yuan had already been outside the Killing Trap Array, and when it was triggered, he retreated dozens of feet frantically, thus avoiding being affected by the Killing Trap Array.
The True Pill Realm cultivator next to him, however, was swept up by the Killing Trap Array and never breathed again.
Lu Yuan watched in shock as the Killing Trap Array quickly calmed down, sweat breaking out on his forehead.
The scene of a thousand people attacking the formation had felt almost like a dream.
Only the lingering smell of blood in the air reminded those still alive that there had indeed been so many people here.
Lu Yuan felt that he might have made a mistake.
Wu Changgong no longer dared to covet Purple Garden Mountain and even ignored Lu Yuan’s pressure:
"Sect Master, I think our Five Alchemy Dao should withdraw from Purple Garden Mountain. This, this…"
He unconsciously stepped back a bit while talking, trying to put as much distance as possible between himself and Lu Yuan.
He was only at the Primordial Soul Realm, while Lu Yuan was a genuine Void God Realm. If Lu Yuan wanted to kill him, he had no chance of resisting.
Lu Yuan didn’t seem to notice Wu Changgong’s words at all and continued to stare in shock at the defensive formation around Purple Garden Mountain that was gradually repairing itself.
The reason the Defense Array was broken so quickly was obviously intentional by the person who set it up.
Because once the Defense Array was breached, the people who attacked the Defense Array would be swept into the Killing Trap Array immediately.
They were not swept in because they were still a bit away from the Defense Array.
Now that the attackers were killed by the Killing Trap Array, the Defense Array of Purple Garden Mountain would surely start to repair itself automatically.
Lu Yuan turned around only to find that both Qiu Kujin and Wu Changgong had already disappeared.
It seemed that Qiu Kujin and Wu Changgong had realized one thing—Ding Huan was not to be trifled with.
Ding Huan hadn’t even arrived, yet so many had been killed.
Lu Yuan took a deep breath. No matter whether Ding Huan was tough to deal with or not, he wasn’t planning to provoke Ding Huan anymore, deciding to retreat and discuss things later.
It could be certain that Ding Huan had not come out yet because he was waiting for these people to break the Protective Array and then be killed by the Killing Trap Array.
Now that these people were dead, Ding Huan might soon arrive. Although he was not afraid of Ding Huan, there was no need to continue staying here.
As for the more than a thousand cannon fodder killed, what did that have to do with him, Lu Yuan?
"Are you leaving?"
Just as Lu Yuan was about to deploy his Flying Treasure, an abrupt voice rang out.
Lu Yuan’s heart skipped a beat, and then he saw a young man in simple clothes holding a long spear, staring at him.
A chill ran down Lu Yuan’s spine; he was a Void God Realm cultivator after all, and he hadn’t realized when the other party had arrived.
"Who are you?" Lu Yuan tried to calm himself while mentally connecting to his Magical Treasure Dual Qian Shovel.
Ding Huan took a few steps forward:
"My name is Ding Huan. The protective formation you just commanded people to break was set up by me."
"So, it’s Sect Master Ding. I’m curious why Sect Master Ding would surround Purple Garden Mountain with a protective formation. This is a place established by our Purple Garden City."
Lu Yuan pointed casually at Purple Garden Mountain. Though he was still wary, he was much calmer than before he had seen Ding Huan.
He couldn’t sense how high Ding Huan’s cultivation was, but Ding Huan’s aura convinced him that his cultivation wasn’t higher than his own.
The deadliest thing about this Ding Huan was probably the Killing Trap Array. As long as he stayed out of his opponent’s Killing Trap Array, what could the other party do to him?
As for annihilating the Dual Soul Sect, that wasn’t worth considering at all.
The Dual Soul Sect didn’t even have a Primordial Soul, and if Ding Huan was at the Primordial Soul Realm and given his level of proficiency in Array Dao, what was so strange about annihilating the Dual Soul Sect?
If this Ding Huan dared to move further from the KillingTrap Array of Purple Garden Mountain, Lu Yuan would definitely not let him go.
"I feel like it."
Ding Huan’s answer was completely unexpected; Lu Yuan had thought Ding Huan would claim that Purple Garden Mountain belonged to his Blue Star Sect.
At the very least, he expected a legitimate reason.
If Ding Huan had said that, Lu Yuan would have immediately brought up the history of Purple Garden Mountain to tell Ding Huan to whom it originally belonged.
He was not prepared for Ding Huan to simply say "I feel like it," leaving him momentarily speechless.
Ding Huan was not going to indulge him; his Separation Spear in hand now swept up swirling spear shadows towards Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan was furious. He hadn’t expected Ding Huan to boldly rush over and attack him. Were Primordial Soul Realm cultivators so bold now?
