Hearing that Ding Huan knew about the Mark of Divine Will on her body made Sang Yuhe even more relieved.
It seemed like Ding Huan was prepared.
"Should we go to where my cave mansion used to be for my seclusion?"
Sang Yuhe had some idea about Ding Huan’s intentions; no wonder Ding Huan had set up the Killing Array there before—it could indeed be used now.
"Yes, I just set up the Killing Array with a ’just in case’ mindset, and I really didn’t expect it to be of use."
Ding Huan was genuinely surprised.
"Ding Huan, your Array Dao level must be not low, so why didn’t you set up any concealment prohibitions at the auction?" Sang Yuhe had wanted to ask this question for a long time.
Ding Huan pointed behind him:
"Although I don’t know what this guy’s name is, having such a ferocious reputation in Yanyue City can’t solely be based on brutality; he must be someone with meticulous thoughts."
Sang Yuhe wasn’t too slow-witted; Ding Huan’s words made it somewhat clear:
"So you want him to think not only that your strength isn’t high but even that your Array Dao level is very poor. This way, he would..."
Ding Huan laughed:
"Only then would he confidently and boldly enter my Big Array."
While talking, Ding Huan increased his Flying speed.
As expected, as soon as Ding Huan increased his speed, he sensed the True Pill Cultivator’s speed picking up a lot.
In a short time, Ding Huan entered the Killing Array he had previously set up.
In truth, the one he had set the Killing Array up for was not a Cultivator with a Perfect True Pill stage.
He was targeting those strong ones in the Primordial Soul Realm.
Luckily, no Primordial Soul Realm powerhouses came, only a Perfect True Pill stage cultivator; so, he would just kill him before leaving.
"Sister Yuhe, I need to refine my Separation Spear, please protect me for a bit."
Ding Huan stopped the spaceship and once again shamelessly grabbed the Separation Spear, speaking loudly.
Before Sang Yuhe could even reply, a sinister voice came through:
"You might as well not refine it, there really is no need."
He thought that upon hearing his voice and seeing his appearance, Ding Huan’s soul would have fled in terror.
What puzzled him was that Ding Huan didn’t even make a move, he didn’t even bother to turn his head around:
"Oh, whether it’s necessary or not is not what I’m considering right now, but you, why do you always appear like a ghost every time? Are you someone who just can’t face others?"
Ding Huan turned around slowly while saying this.
"You know I’m tracking you?" The man furrowed his brows and took two steps back.
That shouldn’t be possible, right? With his strength, unless Ding Huan was a Primordial Soul Realm cultivator, how could he possibly know his whereabouts?
"What do you think?" Ding Huan raised the Separation Spear in his hand.
The man finally became somewhat uncertain; he suspected Ding Huan was feigning calm, but it didn’t quite seem like that.
Or perhaps he found Ding Huan’s actions too odd—he didn’t make a move straight away but stared at Ding Huan and spoke coldly:
"My surname is Si. Actually, I have a name, but I’ve never been particular about these things, so it was forgotten by others. Later on, everyone started calling me Si Tu, and the whole of Yanyue City knows my nature.
That is, those who obey might live, those who don’t, I’ve killed and fed to my Beast Pet. Do you know why no one is tracking you?"
"Could it be they think you’re not so easy to get along with, and don’t want to walk with you?" Ding Huan asked in surprise.
"You’re right, they know I’m tracking you and dared not follow," Si Tu said in a calm tone, but his heart grew more vigilant.
This was not normal, today’s events were absolutely abnormal.
"Oh, I see they know you’re scum. By the way, you said you have an open-top storage container; is it true or false?" Ding Huan was not in the mood to waste words with the guy before him.
Si Tu felt more and more uneasy as his gaze fell on Sang Yuhe, who stood quite far away, seemingly not intending to interfere.
"Take out the Spiritual Blue Fruit, I’m willing to buy it with Spirit Stones, and then we go our separate ways."
As Si Tu spoke, his Divine Will began to observe the surroundings, and a Spiritual Artifact was in his grasp.
He suspected that the reason why Ding Huan was so brazen was that there were likely strong practitioners lying in ambush around them.
Ding Huan raised his hand and threw an Array Flag down, the Separation Spear in his hand roaring towards Si Tu.
"Court death..." Even if the feeling was wrong, the ferocity in Si Tu’s bones was provoked.
But before his Magical Treasure could blast towards Ding Huan, the surrounding space abruptly became the center of slaughtering.
A Killing Array?
Si Tu finally understood what was going on; he hadn’t noticed this Killing Array before, not because he lacked awareness, but because the level of this Killing Array was far beyond his comprehension of the Array Dao.
Puff puff! Two Wind Blades pierced through Si Tu’s body.
Si Tu tried to rush out of the Killing Array, and he woefully realized that he couldn’t even touch the array’s surface, let alone find the exit and break through it.
"Bang!" As Ding Huan’s Separation Spear crushed Si Tu’s head, he was even contemplating whether this was a Level 5 or Level 6 Killing Array.
The last thing he heard before dying was:
"With that bear-like appearance of yours, you want to be a butcher?"
Finally, he understood that Ding Huan had already refined the Separation Spear in the auction box.
The private room did not have any prohibition set up, just so he would recklessly enter the Killing Array, he hated himself for being too careless.
Sarcastically remarking on Slaughter, Ding Huan looked down at the Separation Spear in his hand:
"What an injustice to you, to taste blood for the first time in my hands, and it ends up being from a piece of trash."
It was fortunate that Slaughter had been killed by him, otherwise these words could have enraged him to death.
"Is this a Level 5 Killing Trap Array? Ding Huan, are you a Level 5 Array Master?"
Sang Yuhe couldn’t believe what she was seeing, knowing Ding Huan’s Array Dao must be strong, otherwise, he couldn’t have simply used a trapping array to block Qi Yushan’s escape.
She had never thought that the array Ding Huan had set up was actually of the fifth level.
In the Taoist Realm, the number of Array Masters capable of setting up a Level 5 array could be counted on one’s fingers.
Many Sects in the Taoist Realm would invite powerhouse Array Daoists from the Ascension Realm to set up their Mountain Protection Arrays.
"Yes. Actually, my Killing Trap Array wasn’t meant for dealing with a mere True Pill fellow; I was aiming to target the Primordial Soul Realm, so using it here does feel like an overkill."
Ding Huan casually answered as he took away Slaughter’s storage ring.
In fact, he was not satisfied with his proficiency in Array Dao, as using a Level 5 Killing Trap Array against Elder He was somewhat risky.
Fortunately, today he had managed to purchase a Level 5 Hell Vine seed, and if he added a few other methods, he should be able to put up a fight against that Elder He.
After collecting all the items and turning Slaughter into a pile of ashes, Ding Huan summoned his spaceship and said to Sang Yuhe:

"Sister Yuhe, can you help me control the spaceship? We’re going to Hidden Sword Mountain, I want to see what’s inside this butcher’s ring."
Sang Yuhe was startled, then she said:
"Ding Huan, there are no swords left in Hidden Sword Mountain now, the place is shrouded in Poison Fog all year round, it has long become a mountain of poison."
"Yes, I know, otherwise why would I go there?" Ding Huan naturally said.
"I see, you’re going to collect Poison Fog?" Sang Yuhe finally realized why Ding Huan wanted to purchase container Magical Treasures.
Ding Huan did not answer, for wasn’t it obvious?
Sang Yuhe had wanted to tell Ding Huan that one simply couldn’t get close to Hidden Sword Mountain, and trying to collect Poison Fog could very likely result in poisoning.
However, she immediately thought that if she could understand this, wouldn’t Ding Huan understand as well?
With this realization, she simply focused on controlling the spaceship towards Hidden Sword Mountain.
Ding Huan only took a few breaths to tear open Slaughter’s ring.
What met his eyes were piles of Low-Grade Spirit Stones, while there were not many high-grade ones.
Ding Huan looked down on this with great disdain. Without asking, he knew this guy must have been killing Low-level Cultivators. A typical bully who feared the tough, otherwise there wouldn’t be so many Low-Grade Spirit Stones inside the ring.
To Ding Huan’s surprise, he actually found a Three-Color Zilin Flower within Slaughter’s ring.
Just as Ding Huan thought that the Three-Color Zilin Flower at the auction must have been bought by Slaughter, he noticed something was off.
The Three-Color Zilin Flower in Slaughter’s ring was definitely not the one sold at the auction.
This guy should have been searching for Spirit Grass to advance to the Primordial Soul Realm; having such a flower was utterly useless to him.
Indeed, a trash who liked to murder and seize treasures, not only were the Spirit Stones of Low Grade, but also the Magic Artifacts, talismans, and the like were mostly of Low Grade, and there were loads of them.
Not only did this guy murder for treasures, but he also preyed on Low-level Cultivators, the extent of his shamelessness was truly despicable.
Ding Huan was filled with emotion, thinking that by killing this Slaughter, he had saved how many people.
Soon, a gourd the size of a palm was seized by Ding Huan.
Is this the Open-Mouthed Gourd? This guy actually really had an Open-Mouthed Gourd.
This gourd was indeed not quite the same as ordinary gourds; first of all, the mouth of this gourd was too big.
Ordinary gourds have a small top and a big bottom. This gourd had a large top half and a small bottom half.
This design made it seem somewhat asymmetrical.
What was even more asymmetrical was the mouth of the gourd; the mouth was simply too large, and key, there was no stopper.
Ding Huan began to refine this gourd.
Such formidable prohibitions left Ding Huan astonished.
With his level of Array Dao, even if this gourd was an exceptional Spiritual Artifact, it wouldn’t take him a day to refine it.
Now, after a full day had passed, he had only refined the first layer of prohibitions.
Ding Huan had no idea how many layers of prohibitions this gourd had.
After refining the first layer of prohibitions, Ding Huan’s Divine Will penetrated into the gourd, and he was even more shocked.
What kind of container Magical Treasure was this? It was a world. Now that he had only refined the first layer of prohibitions, the world that appeared before him was a hundred miles around.
Although this world was currently desolate, Ding Huan believed that as long as he managed it with care, it would soon become vibrant with life.
He wondered if the pot he had placed at Dawn Peak could be brought into this gourd-world.
The only pity was that there should also be a stopper for this gourd, but he did not find it among Slaughter’s ring.
Well, with Slaughter’s abilities, he probably couldn’t even touch the first layer of prohibitions, let alone refine it.
It seemed that he got this gourd by murder and plunder.
Slaughter probably also knew the gourd was not simple, but since he was limited in ability, he simply couldn’t refine it and just kept it on his person temporarily.
"Ding Huan, we’re approaching West Wind City," Sang Yuhe’s voice came through.
