Chapter 876: Chapter 876
Qingsha Taoist Ancestor stared at Yan Jiuyue: "Where are the other three?"
Yan Jiuyue hadn't yet recovered from the shock just now, and casually said, "I don't know."
Almost at the same moment Yan Jiuyue finished speaking, Qingsha Taoist Ancestor's hand pressed on Yan Jiuyue's forehead.
As a terrifying aura rushed into Yan Jiuyue's Purple Mansion, Yan Jiuyue's Primordial Spirit was enveloped by this aura and began to tear apart...
"No..." Yan Jiuyue let out a heart-wrenching howl.
She never expected that Qingsha Taoist Ancestor would actually soul search her.
"Good lad, you've really hidden well..." Qingsha Taoist Ancestor withdrew her hand and coldly smiled in the direction Ding Huan had disappeared.
Trying to escape from the palm of her hand? Don't dream of it.

"Bai He, we must teleport away from here." Ding Huan stopped, his tone somewhat grave.
"Ah?" Jia Baihe, having never been to the Ten Thousand Dao Mountain Range, also knew that teleporting here was dangerous.
She didn't know who else Ding Huan had offended besides Qingsha Taoist Ancestor.
"Qingsha Taoist Ancestor has chased us here." After this, Ding Huan took out a teleportation talisman.
He clearly saw the process of Qingsha Taoist Ancestor soul searching Yan Jiuyue, because as he left, he casually inscribed several monitoring array patterns.
Even Yan Jiuyue, who was irrelevant and even a member of Fengyu Daoist Ancestor's faction, was soul searched by Qingsha Taoist Ancestor without scruple.
If he were caught by Qingsha Taoist Ancestor, being alive might be worse than death, which couldn't capture his plight.
But Ding Huan immediately put away the teleportation talisman, smoothing over the law fluctuations in the space they were in, then took Jia Baihe and performed heart escape to leave.
He didn't have a directional transmission talisman.
Even he had no idea where he would be teleported to.
If by chance he teleported into the crowd of Heavenly Mongolians, that would indeed be amusing.
He dared to use heart escape without fear of Qingsha Taoist Ancestor catching up to him.
In terms of cultivation, indeed, he was far inferior to Qingsha Taoist Ancestor.
But speaking of proficiency in controlling Heaven and Earth laws, Ding Huan believed even Qingsha Taoist Ancestor might not be stronger than him.
Ding Huan had just left with Jia Baihe when Qingsha Taoist Ancestor appeared at the spot where Ding Huan had stood before.
The space here had no fluctuations, obviously, all law fluctuations were erased by Ding Huan.
Qingsha Taoist Ancestor let out a mocking sneer, suddenly bent down, sniffed around, then abruptly disappeared from the spot again.
An hour later, she stopped above a giant stone, her face dark and grim because at this moment, she lost her target.
A Heavenly Mongolian appeared before her.
This Heavenly Mongolian stared intently at Qingsha Taoist Ancestor.
Qingsha Taoist Ancestor likewise didn't make a move.
Although she could kill this Fourth Step of Dao Heavenly Mongolian in front of her, she was well aware as soon as she struck, she might be surrounded by Heavenly Mongolians the next moment.
She wasn't afraid of being surrounded by Heavenly Mongolians, but now she didn't have enough time to waste here.
Qingsha Taoist Ancestor decisively performed heart escape.
At this moment, she was more convinced that Ding Huan had a great secret.
She had been chasing Ding Huan not because of the law fluctuations in space, but because of her sensitivity to spatial aura.
Just like that, the aura left by Ding Huan in the space was becoming increasingly faint, eventually disappearing.
Such a method, even someone like her, a Taoist Ancestor, couldn't accomplish—how could Ding Huan possibly do it?
Coupled with the possibility of Ding Huan possessing a Chaos Treasure, even if she expended tremendous resources to capture Ding Huan, it would be worthwhile.
"Brother Ding, is that woman still chasing us?" Jia Baihe cautiously asked upon seeing Ding Huan pause between two giant stones.
She should have stopped.
Ding Huan intentionally escaped beside that Heavenly Mongolian to let this Heavenly Mongolian obstruct Qingsha Taoist Ancestor. In fact, he wasn't mistaken.
Qingsha Taoist Ancestor indeed was blocked by the Heavenly Mongolian.
Jia Baihe breathed a sigh of relief: "What do we do then? Should we still go to the Tian Meng Clan?"
Ding Huan shook his head: "Entering the Tian Meng Clan from the Ten Thousand Dao Mountain Range would probably be suicidal.
The Fengyu Daoist Ancestor simply didn't care about our survival; he didn't even care whether we entered the Tian Meng Clan.
That old thing only cared that he sent four people into the Tian Meng Clan from Fengyu World so he wouldn't need to send anyone else to patrol the Ten Thousand Dao Mountain Range."
Even if Ding Huan hadn't mentioned it, she knew these Taoist Ancestors mostly weren't good guys.
Just as Ding Huan was contemplating how to find the Dao Vein, he felt the ground slightly tremble.
Then a vast Daoist Rhythm aura surged upwards, even through the thick Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, Ding Huan could intensely feel it, despite being quite far away.
As if something had detonated, a beam of white light shot skyward.
Followed by numerous silhouettes seemingly materializing out of thin air, rushing towards the source of the white light.
"This is the Dao Vein..."
Even though Jia Baihe had never extracted a Dao Vein, she knew this was the commotion caused by a Dao Vein being drawn out.
Ding Huan took a sharp breath.
In that Daoist Rhythm aura, he sensed the presence of Zuo Shanyi.
It could be confirmed that Zuo Shanyi was extracting the Dao Vein.
Even while he was in flight, Zuo Shanyi began extracting the Dao Vein; this guy was really formidable.
Crucially, this Dao Vein's level likely surpassed the Mid-grade Dao Vein he had acquired before.
Even more worrying for Ding Huan was, why did the extraction of the Dao Vein from the Ten Thousand Dao Mountain Range cause such a major disturbance?
Ding Huan speculated that Zuo Shanyi perhaps hadn't expected that, once a Dao vein was extracted, nearly half the mountain range would be able to discern it.
Fortunately, Zuo Shanyi set the stage for him.
Otherwise, it would be Ding Huan who had fallen into the Tianmeng clan's encirclement this time.
"There's something strange about the Dao vein here."
Ding Huan spoke as he took out a Direction Jade Scroll.
This Jade Scroll was given to him by Qi Qi.
From the position on the Jade Scroll, Ding Huan could see that it was within this Ten Thousand Dao Mountain Range and belonged to the Tianmeng clan's domain.
This puzzled Ding Huan—why was there no Tianmeng clan guarding that place?
Was it because the space laws were chaotic, and a careless move could lead to being torn apart?
Even so, if there were a plethora of Dao veins, someone would definitely be guarding it.
"Baihe, let's change location."
Ding Huan decided to go over first to see if it was possible to extract the Dao vein.
If that doesn't work, they'd return to the Ten Thousand Dao Mountain Range again.
Otherwise, with the disturbance of extracting a Dao vein here in the Ten Thousand Dao Mountain Range, perhaps just as he started, he'd be surrounded by Tianmeng clan's experts.
Jia Baihe naturally had no objections.
As long as she followed by Ding Huan's side, within Ding Huan's domain, there was almost no Dao rhythm disturbance.
Zuo Shanyi's act of extracting a Dao vein created too much noise, attracting all nearby Tianmeng clan cultivators and human clan cultivators.
Ding Huan and Jia Baihe didn't even need to hide their tracks; no one paid them any mind.
Ding Huan's initial thought was to reach the location given by Qi Qi quickly and then observe whether there was a Dao vein there.
But only a stick of incense time passed when Ding Huan and Jia Baihe stopped.
"Baihe, stop, there's a Dao vein here." Ding Huan called to Jia Baihe.
The Ten Thousand Dao Mountain Range is said to be full of Dao veins, but that's really just an exaggeration.
If the Ten Thousand Dao Mountain Range truly had Dao veins everywhere, surely human clan cultivators and Tianmeng clan cultivators would first search for Dao veins in their own domains.
Any conflicts between the two sides would only occur if all their own Dao veins were exhausted.
In reality, finding a Dao vein in the Ten Thousand Dao Mountain Range is not easy.
Otherwise, someone as deep-thinking as Zuo Shanyi wouldn't be so eager to extract one upon discovery.
"How could there be a Dao vein here?" Jia Baihe looked incredulously at the spot Ding Huan indicated.
This place was an open expanse of gray land.
Normally, where there's a Dao vein, spirit plants are lush.
"I'm not mistaken." The reason Ding Huan believed there was a Dao vein here was because, as he passed by, he sensed the Heaven and Earth Rules were different here.
The Heaven and Earth Laws in this space were weaker than in other places.
Ding Huan had never extracted a Dao vein, but he'd heard of some Dao vein characteristics.
It's said that when using a Dao vein for cultivation, the Dao vein is the best source of Heaven and Earth Laws.
A Dao vein, even before having its primordial energy extracted, continually absorbs endless Heaven and Earth Laws to grow.
If Ding Huan wasn't cultivating the Great Universe Technique, he wouldn't have felt this subtle change in Heaven and Earth Laws.
Ding Huan had now constructed his own Chaos Law Sea, and all kinds of Law Rivers were quickly being perfected.
So, when passing this area, he immediately felt fluctuations in the Heaven and Earth Laws here, and they were a bit thinner.
This subtle sensation couldn't be put into words.
With the fastest speed, Ding Huan set up layers of Constraining Spirit Divine Arrays while tossing down Array Flags one by one.
In less than half a stick of incense's time, under Ding Huan's divine will, he touched two Dao veins simultaneously.
Ding Huan was pleasantly surprised.
The speed of depicting the Void Array Patterns was even faster.
In just dozens of breaths, Ding Huan had secured these two Dao veins.
Before Ding Huan could extract these two Dao veins, two beams of white light shot up into the sky.
Even though Ding Huan had placed the Constraining Spirit Divine Array, it couldn't stop the light from the Dao vein's primordial energy.
Ding Huan's divine essence surged, and with his divine will, he pulled the two Dao veins out of the ground.
Almost at the moment the two Dao veins were extracted, intense Dao rhythm exploded.
The ground trembled again.
The Dao rhythm white light that burst forth was even more dazzling.
Ding Huan didn't have time to clean up the scene and took Jia Baihe with him, executing Heart Escape to leave.
If he didn't leave now, he might not be able to later.
Less than three breaths after Ding Huan left, several figures landed at the site where the Dao veins had been extracted.
All three were Tianmeng clan cultivators.
In the Ten Thousand Dao Mountain Range, the Tianmeng clan had long held the initiative.
With abundant cultivation resources and inherently strong power, they gradually took the dominant position in the Ten Thousand Dao Mountain Range.
Ding Huan extracted the Dao veins at a location leaning more towards the Tianmeng clan, so after the Dao veins emerged, almost no human clan cultivators came over.
(Fellow Daoist, good night!)
