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

"What are your plans now?" Kulu asked.

"What do you think?" Ding Huan looked at Kulu.

Kulu was worried that Ding Huan might be overthinking, so after hesitating for a bit, he still said, "Logically speaking, we should stick together. I've been surviving here for a long time and am familiar with it.

But it's more dangerous for us to be together, so I suggest that we go our separate ways."

Ding Huan laughed heartily, "Old Kulu makes a good point. Actually, I was thinking the same thing. After we separate, we can each transform into different appearances to survive.

If one of us gets caught, we wouldn't know the other person's details, which is better than both of us getting snatched up together."

"Alright, take this, Brother Zhang San. We shall meet again." Kulu took out a Jade Scroll and handed it to Ding Huan; he genuinely admired him.

Ding Huan was brave and resourceful, never dragging his feet in what he did.

Even though he was a Da Yi Immortal, and Ding Huan only had Golden Immortal cultivation, he always felt that during their time fleeing together, Ding Huan contributed more than he did.

His contribution was merely his familiarity with the place, nothing more.

Seeing Kulu depart, Ding Huan also quickly chose a direction and left.

His Divine Will rested on the Jade Scroll given by Kulu. It introduced two places; the first was Heavenly Street.

Heavenly Street is the most famous street in the Heavenly Court. In this place, no one cares who you are when doing business, nor would they check on you.

The second is the Immortal Court Palace. For those who want to be officials or work for the government, they mainly look at the recruitment information for various officials in the Immortal Court Palace.

Although these contents were all introduced in the Direction Crystal Ball of the Pangu Great World, Ding Huan was still grateful to Kulu.

He had the Direction Crystal Ball of the Pangu Great World; otherwise, he would have been utterly clueless.

While he could find a place to retreat and cultivate, setting up a Gathering Spirit Immortal Array would still be dangerous. There were too many powerhouses here, and once discovered, there would be no chance of turning over a new leaf.

Without setting up a Gathering Spirit Immortal Array, cultivation would be ineffective. Even if there were some slight effects, it would raise suspicions.

After all, when his Great Universe Technique absorbed Immortal Spiritual Energy, it swept over and formed a vortex.

If discovered by someone, they would certainly come to investigate.

After some thought, Ding Huan decided to head to Heavenly Street first.

According to Kulu's meaning, rights were guaranteed on Heavenly Street, where they wouldn't randomly check for household registrations or the like.

Moreover, information was readily available on Heavenly Street. If the Immortal Court Palace were recruiting, he would know about it at any time.

In the Immortal Court, Ding Huan dared not casually take out his iron pot.

Here, Immortal Emperors were common, and there might be even stronger beings such as Quasi-Saints. It would be best for him to keep a low profile.

Ding Huan took out a Low Grade Flying Immortal Device and first set up a few Second Level Defense Immortal Arrays, then a Concealing Array.

These things were nothing in front of the powerful, but at the very least, they provided him with some psychological comfort.

Ding Huan had a map showing the direction to Heavenly Street. It didn't seem very far at first, but only when he set out did Ding Huan realize the true distance.

Traveling on the Low Grade Flying Immortal Device for five whole months, Ding Huan found that he hadn't even covered a tenth of the journey.

He felt that he couldn't go on like this anymore; carrying on this way would be a waste of time.

From the Direction Crystal Ball of the Pangu Great World, Ding Huan found the closest location to him, Qianyuan Manor.

As Ding Huan already knew from the Immortal Court introductions, within the Immortal Court's territory, whether it was a family, manor, Immortal Sect, or workshop,

as long as they were somewhat capable, they generally had Teleportation Arrays leading to Heavenly Street or directly to the Immortal Court Square.

Hence, within the Immortal Court territory, it was common to use Teleportation Arrays.

Ding Huan was going to Qianyuan Manor to use the Teleportation Array, and he wasn't planning on using it for free; he would pay with Immortal Crystals.

He had tens of millions of Immortal Crystals on him and wasn't short of money to pay.

According to the Direction Crystal Ball of the Pangu Great World, the Manor Master of Qianyuan Manor was named Lu Chongdao, a very amiable person who also held a scattered office in the Immortal Court.

The Teleportation Array of Qianyuan Manor was often used by people.

Hence, Ding Huan decided to go to Qianyuan Manor to use the Teleportation Array.

When he arrived outside Qianyuan Manor, Ding Huan sensed something was off. The Protecting Array of Qianyuan Manor was active, and what's more, there was a faint smell of blood drifting from within.

Something had happened here; I better leave quickly.

That was Ding Huan's first reaction.

But Ding Huan quickly realized that it was too late for him to leave now.

The moment he entered the vicinity of Qianyuan Manor, he became a suspect. What could he do now?

The advantage was that he had transformed before coming, appearing as a Confucian scholar visiting a friend. The downside was that no matter what appearance he held now, it might eventually be traced back to him.

Ding Huan sighed, having come all this way, he decided to go in and take a look.

One shouldn't be too selfish. Before, he had come here high-spirited, hoping to use the Teleportation Array of Qianyuan Manor.

Alright, now that it's discovered the Immortal Manor is in trouble, it's a bit unscrupulous to try and break free and leave, distancing oneself from the matter.

Judging from the fluctuations of energy, the murder here definitely didn't happen long ago.

If he goes in now, he might still find some crucial clues.

Upon entering the Array Gate, what comes into view are more than a dozen corpses lying on the ground.

All these bodies had their Divine Souls utterly destroyed, torn apart by a terrifying killing Dao Rhythm.

Ding Huan grew even more cautious. He still held a Jutsu Talisman in his hand, ready to activate it and escape at the first sign of trouble.

The Jutsu Talisman wasn't something he crafted himself; it was obtained from Wu Jian's ring.

Stepping into the courtyard, there were even more dead.

Ding Huan swept the area with his Divine Will and found not a single living person; it seemed the killer had long since departed.

It was a pity that there was no Monitoring Array here. If there had been one, things would have been much easier.

Ding Huan's Big Calculation Skill was for predicting the future, but now he tried to use it to retrodict the past events that had occurred here.

To his surprise, he discovered that, although the results were extremely vague, the Big Calculation Skill allowed him to perceive a blurred silhouette of the murderer.

Alas, that was not enough. A vague silhouette couldn't reveal who was responsible.

The Big Calculation Skill was indeed powerful. If he couldn't deduce it, it was not a problem with the skill, but with his own cultivation.

The Big Calculation Skill, which could calculate past and future, was indeed a supreme Divine Skill.

Thinking this, an idea struck Ding Huan.

Among the Tian Gang's thirty-six Daoist Skills, there was one Divine Skill that could perform Shadow Retracing Form, which he had also cultivated.

However, due to his lower cultivation, he was able to use this Divine Skill but couldn't apply it in higher-level areas bound by the Heaven and Earth Rules.

This Divine Skill was the Tian Gang's "Returning to the Sun," capable of retracing all past causality.

He mastered "Returning to the Sun" as well as the Big Calculation Skill.

Neither Divine Skill allowed him to retroactively view all that had taken place here at the Golden Immortal Realm.

But he still had his own Tao Technique: the Great Universe Technique, which merged all Laws and unveiled the mysteries of the universe.

He faintly felt that he could combine the Great Universe Technique with the Big Calculation Skill and "Returning to the Sun" to create a new Divine Skill suitable for his current realm.

Aware that time was of the essence and every moment he delayed, his chance to retrace events decreased, Ding Huan immediately joined the Big Calculation Skill with "Returning to the Sun" through the Great Universe Technique Circulation, filling his Sea of Consciousness with Dao Rhythm Laws...

Endless Laws evolved in the Sea of Consciousness Star River and, in a brief time, he forged a brand new Law Divine Power.

Ding Huan easily executed this new Divine Skill, effortlessly retracing the scene's images with striking clarity.

Ding Huan wouldn't miss such an opportunity. He started recording from the outer courtyard and continued to the inner courtyard...

The horrific sight in the inner courtyard made Ding Huan curse inwardly; the murderer was truly ruthless, sparing neither women nor children...

It was unknown if the perpetrator wore a mask.

However, his new Law Divine Power could retrace the Taoist Aura fluctuations of the space. As long as the person appeared before him, a comparison of the auras would leave nowhere to hide.

After retracing and recording the tragic events that had transpired in this courtyard, Ding Huan scanned the Crystal Ball containing the images. If all was well, he was ready to leave.

However, this scan actually revealed a problem.

In the Crystal Ball images, after the person in black killed everyone in the outer courtyard and entered the inner courtyard, a boy of just a few years old from the outer courtyard somehow got up and then deliberately dove into the lotus pond.

Ding Huan approached the edge of the lotus pond and scanned it with his Divine Will.

He immediately saw a Concealing Talisman in the pond, inside which was that very small boy, hiding pale-faced.

Ding Huan formed an Immortal Yuan Handprint, pulling the small boy out of the lotus pond and set him down on the ground.

"You..."

The little boy uttered just one word before freezing, realizing Ding Huan wasn't the murderous one.

Ding Huan said, "I was just passing by Qianyuan Immortal Manor, intending to use the Teleportation Array when I discovered the manor had been slaughtered. It seems you're the only survivor. Do you know who did it?"

"I know, and thank you for saving my life," the little boy hurriedly answered with a bow.

"This is not a place to linger; let's leave first," Ding Huan said.

"I can take you to the Teleportation Array," the boy quickly offered.

Ding Huan shook his head, "I've also made quite a few enemies. If I were to leave through your manor's Teleportation Array now, there's nowhere I could go that would clear my name."

"I can vouch for you..." The little boy spoke logically and with decisiveness.

"Your vouching won't be believed by anyone. I'll leave first and see to your safety later," Ding Huan finished speaking, grabbed the little boy, and rapidly left the place.
