Post-Mythical Era: I don't want to die in the third reincarnation-Chapter 287 - 282 Ding Miezong

The Changyan Academy finally quieted down, with everyone’s back running cold.

This was using the Killing Array to choke the life out of one of the top five Sects of the Ascension Realm.

Ding Huan’s hand spread, and rings along with Storage Bags were collected by him. Then, he threw out several Array Flags and gave them a wave.

One superior-quality Spirit Vein and seven high-quality Spirit Veins were forcibly extracted and taken by Ding Huan.

This was not the end, as a ball of fire dropped over the Changyan Academy, engulfing the whole place in flames that quickly turned it into a sea of fire.

Wang Pingdao did not continue to say anything. He was very clear about the joy Ding Huan and Fu Qijian felt now, but when the power players of Jiuyuan came to settle accounts, he didn’t know if these two would still feel as pleased.

"In that case, I’ll take my leave," said Wang Pingdao as he bowed his fist and turned to leave.

Ding Huan spoke indifferently,

"Is City Lord Wang leaving just like that?"

"Why, do you want me to stay behind as well?" Wang Pingdao’s tone was even colder.

Ding Huan did not know how this man became City Lord, but he was sure that Fu Qijian would explain it to Ding Huan.

In the Ascension Realm, no one, not Ding Huan, Fu Qijian, or even Lin Yuqi, could touch him, the City Lord.

"So many people have died in Jiuyuan City, so many powers have been eradicated, yet City Lord Wang did not come out to look. Now that Changyan Academy is in trouble, City Lord Wang is the first to arrive..."

Ding Huan’s tone remained very calm.

Wang Pingdao looked at Ding Huan and said lightly,

"How I conduct my affairs is not up to Ding Sect Master to teach. If Ding Sect Master doesn’t know who I am, I trust that Master Fu will tell you, farewell!"

After saying that, Wang Pingdao turned to leave swiftly.

Fu Qijian did not tell Ding Huan who Wang Pingdao was, but his Great Ruins Sword transformed into a swath of sword light, already enveloping Wang Pingdao.

Wang Pingdao was greatly startled,

"Fu Qijian, you dare lay a hand on me?"

The breath of death swept over, and Wang Pingdao summoned his Magical Treasure, but before his Divine Skills could be unleashed, he felt his Divine Power Domain hit by a vortex of killing intent, his Divine Skills instantly disrupted.

The next moment, Fu Qijian’s sword light slashed across his neck.

Fu Qijian and Ding Huan had just worked together to kill several Immortals, with him drawing his sword, and Ding Huan delivering Yellow Flower Kills.

Though Fu Qijian could easily kill these Immortals without Ding Huan’s help, their cooperation meant there was no need for a second sword strike, saving time as well.

Wang Pingdao’s head tumbled through the air, his Primordial Spirit not yet emerging, as he watched his own body in disbelief.

Why? How could Fu Qijian dare to kill him, the City Lord of Jiuyuan City?

Could it be that Fu Qijian did not know why Jiuyuan City was named Jiuyuan?

Wang Pingdao’s Primordial Spirit finally burst forth from his Sea of Consciousness:

"Fu Qijian, have you gone mad? Do you not know I come from Jiuyuan..."

Waiting for him was not Fu Qijian’s sword light, but another Yellow Flower Kill from Ding Huan.

Yellow Flower Kills, a Divine Will Ability tailored against Primordial Spirits, was simply made to measure for this.

Wang Pingdao’s Primordial Spirit, engulfed by the whirlpool of Divine Will killing intent, could only think of regret.

The Shi Family’s Changyan Academy was gone. Others would seek out Ding Huan and Fu Qijian. What reason did he, Wang Pingdao, have to get involved?

Now he’d met two rash fools, and he had paid with his life for it.

Fu Qijian collected Wang Pingdao’s rings, and a ball of fire burned Wang Pingdao’s body, as if nothing had happened.

"Senior, the information I’ve received is that Lou Fenyan and Lord Liu have entered the Heaven-Splitting Battlefield. They even managed to take Shi Qi Qiu with them by using some means,"

came an abrupt voice via transmission that reached Ding Huan’s ears.

Ding Huan, with his Divine Will, saw a skinny man quickly disappearing into the crowd.

"Thank you, Ding Sect Master, for avenging the blood debt for my Mandarin Duck Tower," Tang You came over to express her gratitude.

She had hoped only that Sister Yan was safe, never dreaming that the debt of the Mandarin Duck Tower would be avenged.

To Han Xiaonu and Tang You, Ding Huan said,

"I know where Lord Liu and Lou Fenyan have gone. If they can be saved, I will certainly not stand idly by. You should leave Jiuyuan City first."

"Yes," Han Xiaonu and Tang You knew they were of no help following behind Ding Huan.

After Han Xiaonu and Tang You had left, Fu Qijian said,

"Ding Huan, shall we go to City Lord Mansion now?"

Ding Huan shook his head: "We can’t go; we must leave as soon as possible."

He had originally planned to go to the City Lord Mansion after destroying the Changyan Academy. However, while he was using the Killing Array on Changyan Academy, he consulted the Big Calculation Skill and found they must leave quickly.

Ding Huan still trusted the Big Calculation Skill a lot.

After Ding Huan and Fu Qijian left Jiuyuan City, the entire city was in an uproar.

A few days ago, the pompous Changyan Academy was wiped out, cleaned off the face of earth.

That was not all; what was even more terrifying was that Jiuyuan City’s City Lord Wang Pingdao was also killed.

With the Changyan Academy gone and City Lord Wang Pingdao killed, whispers started among the crowd:

"Changyan Academy thought that with a few powerful cultivators in the Heaven-Splitting Battlefield, it could recklessly annihilate Sects, only to have it come crashing down on its own head."

"Exactly, the Triple Heaven Star Land is vast and boundless, full of strong cultivators. You shouldn’t do certain things to the extreme because if you push things to the limit, others can do the same."

"Do you know who Ding Huan is? He loves annihilating Sects, often wiping them out in the Taoist Realm. Some call him ’Ding Miezong’.

This Changyan Academy might just be the beginning. Who knows how many more Sects will fall to him in the future?"

"No matter who Ding Huan is, wiping out Changyan Academy is one thing, but the murder of Jiuyuan City’s City Lord Wang Pingdao is not something that can be easily brushed aside."

"And Jiuyuan is about to receive a visit from the strong; this matter has really blown up."

...

Ding Huan and Fu Qijian had just left Jiuyuan City.

Batch after batch of cultivators with strong talents from the Ascension Realm had arrived in Jiuyuan City.

This was because in the Ascension Realm, a very important event was about to kick off—the recruitment of new disciples by Jiuyuan in Jiuyuan City.

Of course, the disciples chosen by Jiuyuan were naturally none with poor aptitudes.

Any disciple who could enter Jiuyuan was among the best of the best from the various Great Sects, one might even say the cream of the crop.

The three prodigies of the Sky Saber Sect—Gu Lianghui, the Immortal Luo Hua, and Fan Lecang had naturally come to Jiuyuan City as well.

"Sister Luo Hua, don’t you feel something is amiss in Jiuyuan City?"

Upon entering Jiuyuan City, Gu Lianghui felt that something was off.

"A monumental event recently took place here," a young voice took over Gu Lianghui’s topic.

Gu Lianghui and the others turned back and saw several men and women approaching together.

The man speaking was someone Gu Lianghui recognized, Jiu Lu from the Dan Ding Sect, at the fifth level of the True God Realm.

Jiu Lu could only be described as a cultivator with fairly good talent, but the young woman by his side was no simple character; her name was Xiang Qiuxu.

Xiang Qiuxu’s cultivation was only at the third level of the True God Realm, but she was still quite young, not even thirty, which made her an astonishingly talented figure.

Yet that wasn’t even the most remarkable display of her talent. Her greatest talent lay in the fact that she was also a seventh-level Pill King.

Throughout the entire Triple Heaven Star Land, those capable of concocting seventh-level Spirit Pills could be counted on one hand.

Most of these capable individuals were older folks.

Someone like Xiang Qiuxu, who could concoct seventh-level Spirit Pills while still under thirty, was beyond the description of merely a genius.

Combined with Xiang Qiuxu’s appearance, which was not much inferior to the Immortal Luo Hua’s, one could imagine how many pursued her.

Any young prodigy in the Ascension Realm would desire to forge a Taoist couple with Xiang Qiuxu.

Even the Immortal Luo Hua didn’t enjoy the popularity of Xiang Qiuxu. The Immortal Luo Hua was indeed beautiful, but she was known for her aloof nature and only had better Daoist Skills.

Clearly, she was not considered an ideal partner.

Xiang Qiuxu, on the other hand, was different—whether it was her powerful Daoist Skills or her status as a seventh-level Pill King. The help she could bring as a partner was immeasurable by any other standard.

"I have much to learn," Gu Lianghui quickly inquired with clasped hands.

His temperament had become much gentler since leaving the Heaven-Splitting Battlefield.

Jiu Lu sighed:

"It’s because a sect here in Jiuyuan City has been destroyed..."

"Is it the Dual Cultivation Tower?" Gu Lianghui asked immediately.

Everyone knew that Changyan Academy had destroyed the Double Cultivation Tower.

But the Double Cultivation Tower wasn’t considered a remarkable Great Sect, and its destruction should not have caused much of a disturbance.

"No, it’s Changyan Academy," replied Jiu Lu.

"What?"

Upon hearing that Changyan Academy had been destroyed, not just Gu Lianghui and Immortal Luo Hua, but everyone there who had just arrived and heard the news were stunned.

Changyan Academy destroyed? How was that possible? With seven or eight Immortals among them, Changyan Academy was one of the top five Great Sects in the Ascension Realm. How could such an existence be destroyed?

"Lady Jiu, whom did this bold and capable individual turn out to be?"

This time, it was a woman who asked the question. From her shocked tone, it was apparent that she couldn’t believe it to be true.

If Ding Huan were here, he would surely recognize this woman.

Cen Fengqin from the Changyuan Sword Dao; having not met for several years, she had now reached the first level of the True God Realm. She had come here now to try her luck and see if she could be chosen by Jiuyuan.

Jiu Lu replied with a smile, "It’s said to be a Sect Master from the Taoist Realm named Ding Huan; he and another person eradicated Changyan Academy."

"Ding Sect Master? How could he possibly be that strong?" Not only were Immortal Luo Hua and others shocked, Cen Fengqin was also astonished.

Cen Fengqin knew of Ding Huan’s capability; she had suffered at his hands when she was still at the Void God Realm.

Later, she heard that Ding Huan had killed Shi Chuncang of the Shi Family in front of Shi Qi Qiu, and also led others out of the Heaven-Splitting Battlefield, so she was quite wary of Ding Huan.

In her view, no matter how powerful Ding Huan was, he couldn’t possibly have destroyed Changyan Academy, could he?

Jiu Lu added: "It’s said that the other person with Ding Huan was Master Fu Qi Jian; together, they took down Changyan Academy. And that’s not all—Wang Pingdao, the City Lord of Jiuyuan City, was also killed by Master Fu Qi Jian."

Everyone gasped in shock; they were all familiar with Wang Pingdao’s background.

Wang Pingdao was from Jiuyuan, the place they all wished to join. Otherwise, how could an Immortal at the third level become the City Lord of Jiuyuan City?

"Why would Ding Sect Master want to destroy Changyan Academy?" another asked.

Before Jiu Lu could respond, someone else volunteered to speak,

"It’s said that Dean Shi had a grudge against Ding Huan, as Ding Huan killed Shi Chuncang of the Shi Family right in front of Dean Shi."

Jiu Lu shook his head,

"That’s not the issue. It’s because Changyan Academy destroyed the Dual Cultivation Tower and killed all the women from there.

The source of this c𝐨ntent is freeweɓnovēl.coɱ.

Ding Huan and the owner of the Dual Cultivation Tower, Lou Fenyan, must have had a significant relationship. That’s why he represented the Dual Cultivation Tower and wiped out Changyan Academy."

"Hmph, such a disgrace and scum of a man. To mingle with a bunch of shameless women and even destroy Changyan Academy—a great Sect of our Ascension Realm."

To everyone’s surprise, Xiang Qiuxu, the pampered daughter of the Dan Ding Sect, snorted coldly, not hiding her fury in the slightest.

"Sister Xiang, be cautious with your words," Jiu Lu quickly admonished.
