"Sang Yuhe, wait for me in West Wind City. The City Lord there is considered a friend of mine, you can ask him to take you to my place to stay."
After greeting Sang Yuhe, Ding Huan rode his Separation Spear towards Hidden Sword Mountain.
The space in the bottle’s open mouth was a bit small. He considered whether he could compress the prohibition and use this ten-foot space to collect more poison fog.
Hidden Sword Mountain was, as always, completely hidden under the cover of the poison fog.
Unlike last time when he had to be extremely cautious, this time Ding Huan didn’t care at all and rushed into Hidden Sword Mountain.
Before he had created the Great Universe Technique, he could only neutralize the poison in the poison fog.
If it was a small area, then it wouldn’t be a problem. But long-term exposure to this kind of poisoned fog would prevent him from completely neutralizing the toxins entering his body, causing his flesh to become poisoned.
Now, Ding Huan could completely absorb the energy in the poison fog and break down the poison.
This time, Ding Huan didn’t head towards the Cosmic Vortex, where a big boss was hidden. It would be bad if that old guy caught him.
Rather, that Cosmic Vortex...
Ding Huan stopped and looked in the direction of the Cosmic Vortex, suddenly feeling that it might still be useful to him.
If he were to defeat Elder He, he would have to establish his own sect in Purple Mist Valley and pass down a simplified version of his Great Universe Technique.
The cultivation system of the Great Universe Technique wasn’t Qi Cultivation, Foundation Establishment, True Pill, Primordial Soul, Void God...
In this case, he would need to use this place again to modify his cultivation technique.
And adapt the rules of the Great Universe Technique to the same cultivation realms as Triple Heaven Star Land, such as Qi Cultivation, Foundation Establishment, True Pill, etc.
Thinking of this, Ding Huan frowned.
Was it because the Great Universe Technique he created didn’t match the levels of cultivation techniques in Triple Heaven Star Land?
Or because the technique he created was known to few, so it must conform to the mainstream techniques?
This made him uncomfortable—his own creation, both in system and power, was stronger than the techniques of this world, yet he had to conform to the weaker ones.
Otherwise, if his sect disciples went out, when others asked about their cultivation, they’d say Qi Cultivation, Foundation Establishment, and so on.
But his disciples would mention Star Dust and Star Nebula.
Obviously, they would be ridiculed, considered by others to be a backwater sect.
The more Ding Huan thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt, and the more he couldn’t help but think about it.
At this moment, he even forgot what he came here to do; he was here to collect the poison fog of Hidden Sword Mountain, not to ponder matters that hadn’t even begun to take shape.
After standing in the poison fog for three days, poison refined by the Great Universe Technique piled up around Ding Huan.
On the fourth day, he suddenly woke up. Was this straying into madness?
Ding Huan looked in the direction of Ji Xinting. Had he been influenced by that old man just now?
However, his Great Universe Technique was completely out of anyone else’s control. It was a technique he had uniquely created.
Thinking that he had just cautiously planned to avoid Ji Xinting, the old man, Ding Huan suddenly felt it was entirely unnecessary.
If the other party really could do something to him, he would not have been able to leave last time.
With a clear head, Ding Huan felt utterly lucid. He had no more hesitations, burst into laughter, and then let out a long howl.
What’s there to fear?
Since he had created his own Great Universe Technique and started his own sect legacy, why should he change the realms of his cultivation system?
In the future, all disciples in his sect would practice the branches of the Great Universe Technique, no exceptions.
What did it matter if Triple Heaven Star Land didn’t recognize it? They practiced their system, and he his.
In other words, they had their path, and he had his bright road.
It remained to be seen whether his Great Universe Technique would influence the heaven and earth rules of Triple Heaven Star Land, or whether the original cultivation rules of Triple Heaven would affect his Great Universe Technique.
Who could be sure that in the future, the entire cultivation levels of Triple Heaven Star Land couldn’t be transformed into the realms created by Ding Huan?
"My young friend, I indeed harbored some malice against you last time; I apologize. If you are willing, we could talk again."
Just as Ding Huan was feeling spirited, an unexpected voice reached him.
Ding Huan was not surprised at all; it was Ji Xinting again.
Given the commotion he had just caused, it was normal that the other party knew he had arrived.
Originally, Ding Huan had not planned to go to the location of the Cosmic Vortex.
Now, he must go there because as long as he established his own Great Dao legacy, he would have to make Hidden Sword Mountain his own.
His sect disciples needed a place to comprehend the vast starry sky during their cultivation.
Hidden Sword Mountain was the perfect place for his new sect to comprehend the vast starry sky.
He himself also needed to go there to comprehend the new cultivation technique, and what could Ji Xinting, a half-dead guy, do to him?
His cultivation of Star Nebula was perfect, and he was about to move on to the next step. Coming to Hidden Sword Mountain, it was just right to use the cosmic vortex to comprehend the next level of the Great Dao.
Without any hesitation, Ding Huan flashed his figure and rushed towards the Cosmic Vortex where he had perceived the Great Universe Technique.
Before reaching the Cosmic Vortex, he saw Ji Xinting.
Compared to two years ago, Ji Xinting seemed even more listless.
"I apologize to you. I wanted to ask for your help last time, so I tried to subdue you. It was not my intention to harm you, but my way of handling things led to that decision. You can think of me as someone who used to be arrogant and hasn’t changed yet…"
Ji Xinting’s voice came through, but Ding Huan did not move. He had to advance a bit further to experience the vast Void from the Cosmic Vortex.
At the moment, Ding Huan was making calculations; he wanted to assess if he was in any danger.
After a while, Ding Huan sighed in relief; he was not in danger.
That meant Ji Xinting’s words might actually be true, and he likely wouldn’t make a move against him.
"I also need to thank you. You knew my identity but did not reveal it. That is why I am thankful. Otherwise, who knows how many people would try everything to come here and kill me… I do not know your name yet, please tell me."
Ji Xinting’s grateful words came through again.
Ding Huan heard but didn’t care. To confide in someone like Ji Xinting, did he think he wasn’t dying fast enough?
He and Ji Xinting could never be friends. Between them, there was only one possibility, and that was to trade.
Moreover, this trade had to be based on conditions neither side would betray.
Seeing Ji Xinting wanting to say more, Ding Huan waved his hand:
"My name is Ding Huan, old Ji. Knowing it doesn’t help you, I won’t give you the chance to kill me. If you have more to say, wait a bit; I need to first comprehend my Cultivation Technique. Maybe I’ll even advance a level."
Upon hearing Ding Huan’s words, Ji Xinting also acknowledged and said,
"Alright, your Cultivation Technique is truly incredible, seemingly comprehended by yourself. I can feel the vastness of the Cultivation Technique you comprehend, yet I cannot probe its mysteries."
Ignoring the man, Ding Huan moved forward a few meters until he stopped near a giant rock that had been shattered by a Thunder Arc last time.
The first thing Ding Huan did after stopping was to take out a bunch of Array Flags and start setting up Arrays.
A Defensive Array was definitely needed, an Attack Array was essential, and the Trigger Array was a priority to prevent Ji Xinting from making a move on him.
Next were the Spirit Gathering Array and an External Trapping Array to prevent sneak attacks and trap the attackers or their Magical Treasures.
Unfortunately, he couldn’t set up a Teleportation Array; otherwise, he would definitely have set one up.
Even though he couldn’t move, Ji Xinting could still clearly feel Ding Huan’s skillful use of Arrays.
In such a short time, Ding Huan was already able to set up a big fifth-level Array. Was this defying the heavens? Such aptitude for Array Dao…
Thinking momentarily, Ding Huan once again took out the Spirit Vein he got from Chang Qi’s ring and threw it at his feet.
Having done this, Ding Huan felt he could deduce the next steps for his Cultivation Technique.
Sitting on the Spirit Vein, the Great Universe Technique ran, and Ding Huan’s Divine Will penetrated the Cosmic Vortex; his whole being was enveloped in the vast universe before him.
At this moment, he was the universe, and his Dao formed a tiny speck of Star Dust within his own universe, initiating this Tao Universe.
Slowly, this tiny speck of Star Dust condensed twelve clusters of Star Nebulae.
His foundational root in the Great Dao began as that tiny speck of Star Dust. As his cultivation increased, his foundation became the Star Nebulae.
Yet this wasn’t enough; the Star Nebulae couldn’t bear the Great Dao he continued to develop.
His Star Nebulae needed to condense into a new foundation once more...
As Ding Huan’s understanding of the vast starry universe fused with the Cosmic Vortex, his Great Dao philosophy merged together.
Not far away, Ji Xinting could not look up, yet he could feel waves of boundless Taoist Aura circling around Ding Huan.
Without the natural Array in the rock to block him, his feelings were clearer.
He was astounded to discover that the Dao of this young man practicing before him seemed like a boundless universe, and the young man could actually control his universe.
As the young man’s Great Dao continued to grow robust, that boundless universe also slowly perfected and grew...
What kind of Great Dao was this?
Ji Xinting was stunned; he was, after all, the number one recognized master in the Triple Heaven Star Land Cultivation World.
Yet, he felt that compared to Ding Huan’s Dao, his own was as dim as a firefly against the bright moon.

No, it was an even greater difference than that.
At that moment, he felt Ding Huan’s aura change again, seemingly the previously calm universe began experiencing intense fluctuations, and Ding Huan’s momentum surged.
The universe was still the same, only becoming more vast and magnificent.
I must cultivate this technique, Ji Xinting screamed internally, his desire for the Cultivation Technique Ding Huan practiced reaching its peak.
…
Boom!
Within Ding Huan’s Dantian, the twelve clusters of Star Nebulae amalgamated under the Tao Technique, forming the nascent form of a Star Mountain.
Intense life force of the Great Dao circled around the Star Mountain, and the Spiritual Energy from the Spirit Vein below Ding Huan was drawn out as if a floodgate had opened.
Ding Huan’s aura continued to soar, and his True Yuan increased by tens of times.
