“Du Bu this person I know, I heard that he is very arrogant and wants to dominate the entire Five Elements universe.” Di Jiu said.
Cao Xie shook his head, “Actually, this person Du Bu is arrogant, the statement that he wants to dominate the entire Five Elements Universe is not accurate. Du Bu should want to dominate the Five Elemental Universe and become the Lord of the Universe, not want to take the Five Elemental Universe for himself. The one who was truly ambitious was his disciple, Wat Mor, and this man really wanted to refine the Five Elements Universe and claim it as his own. It’s just that his ambition was mostly greater than his ability, and failure was inevitable.”
“What kind of a fellow is Du Strange?” Di Jiu was very curious about Du Muo, a lot of things were related to this guy.
Cao Xie said, “Actually I didn’t meet Du Mor, when Du Mor was claiming to be the king, I had long since fallen. Or rather, I had fallen when Du Strang had not become a disciple of Du Bu. The only reason I heard about the matter of Du Strang was that I got it when I inquired about news of Du Bu after being reborn with the help of Hong Meng.”
“You met your own death?” Di Jiu subconsciously repeated, and then realized that Cao Xi should be in a reborn body. If Cao Xi’s reborn body was so terrifying, then how terrifying would Du Bu be once he was reborn? Moreover, Du Bu would definitely not die just like that.
Di Jiu looked at Cao Xie with some suspicion, this woman was so beautiful and was one of the two best from a different era from Du, this woman wouldn’t be in love with Du, would she?
Cao Xi obviously didn’t know what Di Jiu was thinking, and said to herself, “Back then, I only got one Dao of Hong Meng, while Du Bu got eight Dao of Hong Meng. In his heart, Du Bu wanted me to give him this one divine Dao Law as well, in order to fulfill his complete understanding of the universe.”
“You should have given it, right?” Di Jiu knew that Du Bu ended up with nine divine Dao Laws, which was the information he had obtained from the Ninth Dao Law.
Cao Xie shook his head, “I naturally won’t give him the Dao of Hongmeng that I have obtained. I was prepared that once Du Bu snatched it, I would not give it to Du Bu even if I shared the destruction of the Dao Laws of Hong Meng. I didn’t expect that not only did Du Bu want the Dao Laws of Hong Meng, but he also wanted me to become his dao partner. He said that I was the only one in the universe worthy of him, and gave me one day to think about it.
I, Cao Xie, had never wanted to become anyone’s dao partner, but I was equally clear that I was simply no match for Du Bu. In the Five Elements universe, as long as Du Bu was willing, I would not escape him no matter where I fled to. I only considered for three breaths of time before I chose to cut off the Dao of Hongmeng and mete out my own death.”
Di Jiu suddenly remembered the Ninth Dao Law, when the Ninth Dao Law had escaped earlier, he really thought that the Ninth Dao Law had escaped from the Lord of the Universe. Now, it seemed that this was not the case. It wasn’t that Du Bu couldn’t find the Ninth Daoist Rule, but that Du Bu himself had been a*sa*sinated by his disciple. Otherwise, even if the Ninth Daoist Rule had fled far away, I was afraid that it would not be able to escape from Du Bu’s grasp.
Cao Xie continued, “I was very dry when I met my own death and had no intention of being reborn at all. Life to me is as long as I live it. Besides, I was born in the Five Elements Universe, and everything collapsed into the Five Elements Universe when I met my own death, exactly from where I came from and returned to.”
Di Jiu looked at Cao Xi in doubt and said, “Since you are very dry, is it not you who is standing in front of me?
Cao Xie saw Di Jiu’s doubt and smiled mockingly, “Although I have met my own demise very dryly, without any semblance of a sense of survival. But after all, I have obtained a Dao of Hongmeng, and my Dao has also come from the Dao of Hongmeng and the Dao Rhyme of Opening Heaven. When I chopped away this one Dao Law of Honour, I was surprisingly not complete. It only chopped off the form of the divine Dao Law, but not the God of the divine Dao Law.”
Di Jiu immediately understood the meaning of Cao Xie’s words and asked in shock, “Could it be that you were reborn with the help of the Dao Law of Hong Meng?”
Cao Xi nodded, “Yes, I was indeed reborn with the help of the Dao Laws of Hong Meng, so although Du Bu later collected all nine Dao Laws of Hong Meng, he could actually only say that he had collected eight and a half Dao Laws of Hong Meng. I believe that Du Bu would have understood later, and as soon as he did, he could have stripped away the half of the Dao of Greatness that helped me to be reborn, so that I could never be reborn again.
The truth is that Watanabe did not do so later. I think there are only two possibilities: firstly, Du Bu did not have the chance to do so, as he had already been a*sa*sinated by his disciple, Du Mo, in conjunction with many other powerful people. Secondly, Du Bu might have let me go once, thinking that we were all cultivators of the Open Heaven Dao Rhythm and had gathered the essence of the Open Heaven to be born.”
Di Jiu was silent, he also got another rumour that when the chaotic inner realm where Du Mor had fused the Dao Laws of Hong Meng was opened, eight Dao Laws of Hong Meng appeared and these eight Dao Laws of Hong Meng were snatched away by eight powerful people. Since Cao Xie said so, it meant that the Dao Laws of Hongmeng that one of the strong men had snatched was incomplete and should only be considered half a Dao.
“Then, do you still need to find the half of the Dao of Hongmeng that belongs to you?” Di Jiu asked.
Cao Xie nodded, “After I was reborn, the first thing I did was to inquire about Du Bu’s news. As long as Du Bu is still alive, I’d rather find a secluded place and fall away completely. Because as long as Du Bu knew that I was still alive, he wouldn’t give me a second chance to mete out my own death, and I wouldn’t even have a place to escape.”
In his heart, Di Jiu said, “This Du Bu is also a little too wild, not even giving others the chance to mete out their own death. But if Du Bu hadn’t fallen, then was he a match for Du Bu?
Di Jiu immediately shook his head, he was sure that he was not a match for Du Bu now, even if he was the same level as Du Bu, he would not be able to beat him. Even if he was at the same level as Du Bu, he would not be able to defeat him. It was clear from the comparison with Cao Xi in front of him that compared to Du Bu, Cao Xi was simply not good enough. And Cao Xi could crush him at the early stage of Hedao at the perfection of Hedao.
Thinking of this, Di Jiu was in a bad mood. These old guys were coming out one by one, he had seen a bunch of them, and when that Du Bu would come out, he was not at all sure. Once Du Bu appeared in front of him, what would he do? Could he really deal with Du Bu after he had constructed his own universe rules to merge and perfect?
Cao Xi did not perceive Di Jiu’s big bad mood and still said, “After I found out that Du Bu had fallen, that’s why I thought about not falling on my own. As you said, I worked hard to find my other half of the Dao of Hongmeng, hoping that I could cross the third step before Du doesn’t just merge with the Dao. In that case, I still have a chance.”
“Then do you have a whereabouts?” Di Jiu hurriedly asked.
He also couldn’t wait for Cao Xie to perfect her Dao of Hongmeng sooner and cross into the third step. That way, if she met Du Bu in the future, perhaps Cao Xi could even help her fist a little.
Cao Xie shook her head, “I’m sure that half of the Divine Dao Rule has been snatched away by someone and hidden in his body, otherwise, I would be able to sense it as long as I’m in the Five Elements Universe.”
Di Jiu sighed, not even interested in talking anymore. Compared to the real threat of Du Bu, these giants that were tying him up in front of him were nothing.
After a while, Di Jiu said leisurely, “If Du Bu is reborn, I’m afraid that you and I will be his dinner plate, is there no one in this universe who can control him?”
Cao Xie was silent for a while and suddenly said, “When I was hiding from Du Bu, I once met a truly wise and powerful person, and I suspect that like us, he was also a cultivator who had absorbed the rhythm of the Dao of the Open Heaven and the Earth to condense the essence of the universe. It’s just that he never revealed where he came from, and I thought that if there was anyone else who could deal with Watanabe in the future, perhaps he was the only one.”
“Who is it?” Di Jiu asked offhandedly.
Cao Xi did not answer directly, but said, “When I first met him, I was overwhelmed by his vast and boundless wisdom. And after he had answered many of my questions, he also made a sentiment, a sentiment that I still bear in mind even today.”
“What was that sentiment again?” Di Jiu was in a bad mood and had much less patience after he felt this threat from Du Bu.
Cao Xi did not care about Di Jiu’s eagerness and said to himself, “The Way is not the Way, people are not people, pity my generation, much torment. It was only after I was reborn in a new life that I truly understood the meaning of this saying.”
