Post-Mythical Era: I don't want to die in the third reincarnation
Chapter 631 - 624: 18 Floors

Ding Huan activated his Spiritual Eye, and indeed, in this place, the Spiritual Eye was more useful than Divine Will.

Divine Will simply couldn't penetrate, but the Spiritual Eye could see some spiritual Dao Rhythm.

However, his Spiritual Eye was of a low level, and he could only vaguely sense where there might be good stuff.

Ding Huan dug into the fine sand containing spiritual Dao Rhythm, but found no Divine Stone.

These places should have been where Divine Stones were located before, leaving behind residual Spirit Charm after being dug up.

But with so many people searching for Divine Stones here, it would be tough to find even if there were any.

Ding Huan didn't continue searching but moved on to the fourth layer of the Layered Seas.

In the fourth layer, the situation returned to sand on top and seawater below.

Here, there were relatively fewer people.

Ding Huan swept his Divine Will around and found only a dozen or so people.

The toxicity in this layer was already quite strong; if one were not like Ding Huan, who disregarded Poison Dao Rhythm, one would need better Detoxification Elixir.

Still, Ding Huan didn't stop here and proceeded to the fifth layer of the Layered Seas.

In the fifth layer of the Layered Seas, Ding Huan only saw one or two people controlling Unsinkable Divine Wood, slowly moving and searching.

Ding Huan knew that for most people, the fifth layer was nearly out of reach.

Those who could come to the fifth layer of the Layered Seas, whether or not they were strong, should have decent Detoxification Pills.

Ding Huan didn't stop at the fifth layer but continued upwards.

To Ding Huan's surprise, the sixth layer of the Layered Seas was half seawater and half sand.

Unlike the previous Layered Seas, which were either all fine sand or had fine sand spread over the sea surface.

This sixth layer had waves; there was an Unsinkable Divine Wood Ship about ten zhang long rocking on the waves.

Chu Buqian?

Ding Huan had a favorable impression of this sect disciple; Chu Buqian's position in the Blade Washing Sect was probably not low.

Otherwise, it's unlikely he'd leave with two maids.

Moreover, Chu Buqian could casually suggest Ding Huan join the Blade Washing Sect, an authority ordinary disciples wouldn't have.

Seeing Chu Buqian wobbling amidst the waves of the sixth layer of the Layered Seas, it was evident that the ship could capsize at any moment.

Ding Huan's Divine Will fell upon the waves.

In fact, the wave amplitude wasn't particularly large, but it contained a violent and erratic air.

Although Chu Buqian was still struggling to prevent the ship from capsizing, his pale face indicated he wouldn't last much longer.

As for his two maids, Ding Huan saw only one; the other had likely already fallen from the ship.

Just as Ding Huan was about to toss out an Unsinkable Divine Wood Ship to help, he saw the other maid suddenly strike Chu Buqian's back with a punch.

Chu Buqian spewed a mouthful of blood arrow and fainted.

The woman reached for Chu Buqian's ring.

Ding Huan sighed; Chu Buqian was really blind, having a treacherous maid by his side.

Since he had encountered this, he couldn't stand by and watch.

Ding Huan threw the Unsinkable Divine Wood Ship into the sea; with a breath of Immortal Essence, the Unsinkable Divine Wood Ship swiftly approached Chu Buqian's ship.

Waves crashed against the hull of the Unsinkable Divine Wood Ship, and Ding Huan could clearly feel peculiar Daoist Rhythm Aura railing beneath the hull.

The ship was tossed, plummeting in an erratic trajectory.

Even momentary carelessness would surely overturn the wooden ship.

Ding Huan promptly constructed a Great Universe Technique Circulation and soon sensed become familiar with Dao Rhythm Law he'd never before encountered.

Ding Huan quickly adapted to the irregular surges and the Dao Rhythm impacts within the waves, already reaching the side of Chu Buqian's Unsinkable Divine Wood Ship.

At this moment, just as the maid took Chu Buqian's ring and was about to throw him into the seawater.

"Are you planning to rob and murder?"

Ding Huan's abrupt voice startled the maid, her hand trembled, and she looked back in fear only to see Ding Huan maneuvering the Unsinkable Divine Wood Ship to align with her ship.

The waves were extremely irregular, yet Ding Huan somehow managed to synchronize the two ships' oscillations without capsizing.

"You..." The maid's eyes widened in disbelief at what she saw.

Ding Huan landed on the wooden ship where Chu Buqian was, and looked at this maid preparing to kill Chu Buqian.

The maid finally came to her senses and suddenly drew a Divine Spear rushing at Ding Huan.

Ding Huan had intended to give her a chance to explain; this woman wanted to silence a witness, clearly up to no good.

Ding Huan's Domain swirled, and he launched a punch.

The Divine Will Ability Yellow Flower Kill struck in the woman's Divine Power Domain; her Divine Spear trembled slightly.

Ding Huan's fist slammed into the woman's head at that moment, a mist of blood exploded, and the woman was blasted away.

Before the woman could fall into the seawater, Ding Huan caught her hand, the ring accurately falling onto Chu Buqian's finger.

What surprised Ding Huan was that the maid fell into the seawater and disappeared without causing a ripple.

Controlling both Unsinkable Divine Wood Ships back to the shore, Ding Huan pulled up Chu Buqian's Unsinkable Divine Wood Ship to the shore.

Chu Buqian's breath was stable; waking up was just a matter of time.

No one could possibly enter this sixth layer.

Chu Buqian being able to come here likely indicates he possesses some impressive detoxification elixir, perhaps even a Divine Pill.

Ding Huan didn't wait for Chu Buqian to wake up. He put away his Unsinkable Divine Wood Ship and continued to the seventh layer.

He didn't know how many layers there were in this Spirit Ladder Sea, but the higher he went, the stronger the toxicity. Similarly, the Heaven and Earth Divine Spirit Qi seemed to grow stronger as well.

The Divine Spirit Qi on the sixth layer wasn't only denser than the previous layers, but its purity was also significantly higher.

To Ding Huan, the stronger the poison the higher he climbed, the better.

Ideally, he hoped to discover a Poison Dao Law more potent than his Bone Devouring, so he could incorporate stronger Poison Dao Laws into his Sea of Consciousness Great Dao.

The Seventh Layer, the Eighth Layer, the Ninth Layer...

By the time Ding Huan reached the twelfth layer, the presence of Poison Dao had long surpassed his Bone Devouring, but Ding Huan didn't mind.

As long as he didn't enter the sea, pure Poison Dao Laws were ineffective against him.

While circulating the Great Universe Technique to comprehend the Poison Dao Rules here, Ding Huan continued upward.

He was also aware that while he could keep ascending this ladder in the sea, he mustn't dive into the sea to collect Divine Stones.

He had been to the sixth layer of the ladder sea, where not just the seawater and the unknown fine sand were frightening, but the inexplicable Daoist Rhythm Power was even more fearsome.

If carelessly overturned into the sea, who knows if one would survive?

The Seventeenth Layer, the Eighteenth Layer…

Standing on the eighteenth layer of the Spirit Ladder Sea, various Poison Dao Laws around Ding Huan had almost materialized.

He was certain if it were anyone else standing here, they would be quickly rendered into nothingness by the terrifying Poison Dao Laws.

Yet he could continuously circulate the Great Universe Technique to comprehend the Poison Dao Laws here, thereby expanding the Poison Dao Laws archive in his Tao Sea of Consciousness.

If he could completely integrate the Poison Dao Laws of the eighteenth layer into his Tao Sea of Consciousness, he wouldn't need to return to collect Devouring Dao Silver.

But this layer was filled with various Poison Dao presences, and the Poison Dao Laws were in tatters.

To comprehend all the needed Poison Dao Laws here and then integrate them into his Tao Sea of Consciousness was no simple task.

Ding Huan swept with his Divine Will.

This ladder sea seemingly had only eighteen layers.

At least, standing on this layer, he didn't see any path leading to the nineteenth layer.

The eighteenth layer of this ladder sea wasn't large; rather than a sea, it was more like a lake, its circumference likely not exceeding ten thousand feet.

The sea contained only seawater, without sand.

There was fine sand, but it wasn't evenly spread across the sea's surface; instead, it was scattered unevenly along the shore.

Ding Huan found a relatively wide area and started setting up a defensive formation.

He intended to comprehend the Poison Dao Laws here, with such dense and pure Heaven and Earth Divine Spirit Qi.

If possible, he also planned to transform all of his Immortal Essence here into Divine Essence.

...

When Chu Buqian opened his eyes, he was somewhat confused.

He quickly recalled that he had been betrayed by the maid Ting Xue. He knew the reason for the betrayal too, as he had acquired a Five-Star Divine Status Crystal.

Once a Divine Stone exceeds four stars, it can be called a Divine Status Crystal.

A Five-Star Divine Stone, naturally, is a Divine Status Crystal.

Although he had long merged a Divine Status, he also had a younger sister.

This time, he came here to find a good Divine Stone for his sister, Chu Tianhua.

The Divine Stones of Spirit Ladder Sea seemed abundant, but in reality, most were of little value.

To find a good Divine Stone, one had to go to the fifth layer or higher of the ladder sea.

This time, armed with a bottle of top-grade Detoxification Divine Pill, he brought his two maids to the sixth layer of the Spirit Ladder Sea.

On the sixth layer, he indeed acquired a Five-Star Divine Status Crystal.

For this Divine Stone, the maid Lu Mei perished in the sixth layer of the ladder sea.

Yet he hadn't expected that Ting Xue would betray him for this Five-Star Divine Status Crystal...

Wait, he had been sabotaged by Ting Xue, so why was he still sitting on the Unsinkable Divine Wood Ship?

Chu Buqian jumped up instantly, with blood on his chest confirming that he had indeed been betrayed.

And the wooden ship appeared on the shore, which also indicated he had indeed been rescued.

Chu Buqian's Divine Will instantly examined his ring—the Five-Star Divine Status Crystal was still there.

This was peculiar; since Ting Xue had sabotaged him, why didn't she take his Five-Star Divine Status Crystal?

Chu Buqian took another Detoxification Divine Pill, clearing his mind a lot.

It was true that Ting Xue betrayed him; that he was still alive and seeing no Ting Xue could mean only one thing.

Someone witnessed Ting Xue's betrayal, killed her, and then saved him.

Yet, this was also the most puzzling possibility.

This was the sixth layer of the Spirit Ladder Sea. Not to mention he knew no one here; even if someone could come here and save him, they wouldn't possibly leave such a valuable Five-Star Divine Status Crystal untouched, right?

Chu Buqian shook his head, unable to make sense of it.

Still, having a Five-Star Divine Status Crystal on hand, it was best to quickly return and let his little sister condense a Divine Status first.
