With only 8 years to live at the start, I'm going all in.

Chapter 444 Now? Here?

Deep underground, Ding Yi was hiding, concealing his aura and not daring to release even the slightest fluctuation of his presence.

He had just secretly opened the quicksand map, and the dense array of skulls that appeared on it made him feel dizzy.

Have you ever felt surrounded by dozens of black skulls?

"Damn, what the hell is this Changqing Palace? How could it attract so many Venerables at once?!"

Ding Yi did not experience that era, so he naturally did not know the meaning contained in the name.

But that's not the point. The point is that at the end of the quicksand map, there was a golden skull that appeared there, which immediately startled Ding Yi.

gold?!

What level is this?

Ding Yi recalled the danger level of the quicksand map mark and realized that this was the first time he had ever seen this golden mark. At that moment, his heart skipped a beat and he suddenly thought of a certain possibility.

"Could that guy really be alive?!"

Ding Yi felt increasingly alarmed as he thought about it, but the more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed. After all, so many Venerables had already come knocking on his door. If that guy hadn't died, he would definitely have appeared sooner!

Ding Yi realized he had gone too far!

Not to mention that I tried every means to prevent Changqingzi from being resurrected in the lower realm, and even controlled his chosen Daoist partner, now I'm directly leading a group of people to force him to abdicate in his territory. If he finds out that I was the one behind all this, he'll kill me ten thousand times over!

Just as Ding Yi was in a daze, a thought suddenly struck him, and he sensed an increasingly subtle connection.

"What is this sensation?"

Ding Yi's heart skipped a beat, and a beautiful figure instantly appeared in his mind, causing his expression to darken.

Has Ji Huanxue gone mad? Why is she coming to see me at this time?!

Ding Yi cursed inwardly, then dived down again, preparing to increase the distance between himself and the woman.

However, the lower you go, the higher the required return frequency becomes. Ding Yi dared not use his full strength, otherwise, if the abnormally high vibration frequency of the soil layer attracted the attention of those above, he would suffer a loss.

Helpless, Ding Yi could only remain where he was, praying that Ji Huanxue wasn't out of her mind and that she had thought things through before daring to approach him like this.

After about half a cup of tea's time, Ding Yi noticed that the connection in his heart was becoming clearer and clearer, and immediately guessed that Ji Huanxue had probably arrived nearby.

Sure enough, right above Ding Yi's head, Ji Huanxue landed anxiously in a pile of ruins, looking around as if searching for something.

Although Ding Yi was underground, he was still able to sense Ji Huanxue's every move with his amazing divine sense. At the same time, he was also a little puzzled as to why no one noticed Ji Huanxue's big movements.

What exactly happened outside?

Ding Yi took a deep breath, still not daring to release a trace of his aura, and quietly lay dormant there.

Soon, Ji Huanxue above seemed to realize something. She wasn't stupid, and she guessed why Ding Yi hadn't come out.

She simply sat down cross-legged and calmed herself down to express her current state of mind.

Sure enough, Ding Yi below directly felt the connection that had become stable again. He frowned slightly and then began to slowly wriggle upwards.

Before long, Ding Yi's face quietly emerged from the ground, but he didn't dare to come out completely, instead observing from where he was.

Seeing that there was no movement around him, Ding Yi slightly emerged from the ground and immediately saw Ji Huanxue sitting cross-legged not far away.

Ding Yi took out the quicksand map and looked at it again. Seeing that the skulls remained motionless in the area ahead, he breathed a slight sigh of relief and transmitted his voice to Ji Huanxue:

"Ji Huanxue, what do you want with me?"

Ji Huanxue was startled when she heard the voice. She turned around abruptly and saw Ding Yi's stern face.

"My lord, it's so good to see you again!"

With tears welling up in her eyes, Ji Huanxue quickly got up and walked to Ding Yi's side, bowing slightly to him in greeting.

Ding Yi didn't reply, but instead asked directly via telepathy:

"I already know about your previous imprisonment. To make a long story short, I hope you have some important news to share with me at this time."

Ji Huanxue took a deep breath, then transmitted her voice:

“My lord, that person has been resurrected. This matter is irreversible. You must find a way to leave this place.”

"We cannot verbally state his name when we transmit it, otherwise he will sense it. Please be careful, Immortal Master."

Upon hearing this, Ding Yi thought to himself, "As expected," and immediately frowned and asked:

"Where can I go if I leave here? Just how strong is that...that person now?"

Ji Huanxue glanced in the direction of Changqing Palace, then continued:

"Although that person has been resurrected, he is definitely not at the Dao Ancestor Realm now, and he might not even be at the Venerable Realm."

"The troublesome thing is that all the methods that person has used are things he personally set up before his reincarnation. They are all supernatural powers capable of killing gods and Buddhas. Just now, a Venerable was killed by him."

Ding Yi's expression immediately changed upon hearing this.

Damn it, what a waste! How many lifespans would it take to kill a Venerable One?!

Seeing Ding Yi's distorted expression, Ji Huanxue assumed he was angry at Changqingzi's ruthless methods, and quickly said:

"As for where to go, once that person resolves the matter here, he will inevitably begin to annex the entire Chaotic Land. After much consideration, I believe that the Immortal Alliance is the safest option for now."

"The Immortal Alliance?"

Ding Yi frowned. Although the Immortal Alliance could not tolerate any ascendants, that place was indeed better than the threat posed by Chang Qingzi.

Ji Huanxue seemed to sense Ding Yi's hesitation and quickly urged him:

"My lord, please make a decision quickly!"

After a moment of silence, Ding Yi shook his head slightly and said:

"Leaving the forest now would be tantamount to suicide; I need a more chaotic moment."

"Everyone was frantically running away, which allowed me to blend in."

"Look at the situation now. The people of the Immortal Alliance have the support of those Venerables and have not left. The people of Changqing Palace are at the height of their power, and the balance of power has shifted. Naturally, they will not leave either."

"so..."

Ding Yi transmitted his voice while looking up at the direction above his head.

"You previously said that you have a seed left by that person in your body, and that dual cultivation can lead directly to the Venerable Path?"

Ding Yi suddenly asked.

Ji Huanxue was taken aback by Ding Yi's question and subconsciously asked:

"Now? Here?!"

Ding Yi narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at Ji Huanxue without saying a word.

Changqingzi has been resurrected ahead of schedule, and according to Ji Huanxue's description, she has been completely outmatched.

Therefore, I must break through each of that person's preemptive moves one by one in order to have a chance to compete with that person.
