Chapter 201: Helping Xie Wenyue, Former Elders

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

"Senior Brother Xu!"

"Senior Brother Xu has returned to the sect?"

"…"

After returning to the Yuelan Sect, Xu Ning noticed something strange.

As he walked in the sect, there were people constantly greeting him.

Although he was quite famous in the Yuelan Sect, most people only knew his name and did not know his face.

But this time, there were obviously more people who recognized him, and they were all very enthusiastic.

In particular, some disciples who had just entered the sect looked at him with reverence, which confused Xu Ning.

Xu Ning still didn't know that Si Ying had spread the news of him killing Feng Changge, which had already spread to the Yuelan Sect.

The entire State Jifeng believed that Xu Ning and Si Ying had destroyed the Phantom Blood Sect together.

Although the Phantom Blood Sect was not a top sect in State Jifeng, they still had a peak void realm master, so with that, Xu Ning's reputation was completely established.

"Junior Brother Xu."

When Xu Ning was walking towards the main peak, he suddenly heard a familiar voice.

Xu Ning looked over. It was Xie Wenyue who he had not met for a long time.

Xu Ning and Xie Wenyue had gone through thick and thin together in the Demon Beast Scroll, forging a deep friendship.

But because of their own matters, they never saw each other again.

Xu Ning had gone to State Feiyun previously, then he immediately headed to the mystic realm after he returned.

After Xie Wenyue's aptitude was damaged, she handed over the thunder attribute dao weapon she had obtained to the sect in exchange for her medicinal pills. She then took the initiative to apply to become a deacon. After this while, she had only just returned to the sect to rest.

She only returned to the sect this time because of a summon, and she just so happened to run into Xu Ning.

"Senior Sister Xie."

After Xu Ning saw Xie Wenyue, it was like a reunion with an old friend.

Xu Ning still remembered the scene of them helping each other in the Demon Beast Scroll.

"Long time no see, you sure are famous in State Jifeng now."

Xie Wenyue noticed that Xu Ning was still the same as before. He did not feel distant from her because of his strength and reputation. Seeing this, she was very happy.

"Famous in State Jifeng?"

Xu Ning didn't understand. "When did that happen?"

"The news that you and Si Ying, the number one true disciple of the Thousand Flood Sect, destroyed the Phantom Blood Sect has spread to all the major sects in State Jifeng."

Xie Wenyue also felt that Xu Ning did not care about reputation at all.

If this kind of honor was given to someone else, they would have lost it long ago, but Xu Ning acted like it was nothing.

"That Si Ying…"

Xu Ning shook his head helplessly. He never cared about this kind of reputation.

He didn't expect that after coming out of the mystic realm, his name would shake the entire state.

"Let's not talk about this."

Xu Ning changed the topic and sensed Xie Wenyue's strength. "Has Senior Sister recovered to the void realm third stage?"

"Yes."

Xie Wenyue smiled. "After I received some pills from the sect, I immediately took them. A few days ago, I just returned to the genus realm."

"If everything goes well, I should be able to return to the qualitative change realm."

Xie Wenyue's tone was calm.

Before taking the Desperation Pill, she was in the void realm fifth stage. If her aptitude was not damaged, she would have had the opportunity to break through to the common seal realm by now.

However, although Xie Wenyue felt regretful about this, she was not too deeply obsessed over the loss.

In her opinion, it was already lucky for her to come out of the Demon Beast Scroll alive.

"After experiencing all this, Senior Sister's state of mind has improved again. If your aptitude recovers, you will definitely advance to the common seal realm."

Xu Ning smiled.

"After taking the Desperation Pill, how can I recover my aptitude?"

Xie Wenyue shook her head gently, but her emotions were calm.

"Not necessarily."

Xu Ning took out a porcelain bottle. "Senior Sister, please accept this."

"This is…"

Xie Wenyue frowned and took it. She knew that it was a pill.

"A pill that can repair the damage to your aptitude."

Xu Ning replied.

The pills inside were specially refined for Xie Wenyue after Xu Ning advanced his Life Pill Sutra to the eighth level.

This pill could repair the negative effects caused by the Desperation Pill.

In fact, when Xu Ning returned to the sect the last time, he wanted to give this pill to Xie Wenyue, but at that time, Xie Wenyue had already become a deacon and left the base of the sect.

"What?!"

When Xie Wenyue, who had been calm for a long time, heard Xu Ning's words, her heart started to beat very fast. "This pill can restore my aptitude? Even the senior alchemists in the sect can't refine a pill that can heal the aftereffects of the Desperation Pill. Where did you get this precious pill?"

If someone else said this, Xie Wenyue would feel that they were lying to her.

But since Xu Ning said this, she completely believed him.

"After you left the mystic realm, I obtained the inheritance of a master alchemist. I specially refined this Spring Supplement Pill for you a few days ago after my alchemy technique improved."

Xu Ning was quite honest.

If he hadn't advanced the Life Pill Sutra to the eighth level, he really wouldn't have been able to refine the Spring Supplement Pill.

Xie Wenyue pursed her lips, clenched the porcelain bottle in her hand, and stared at Xu Ning. "Junior Brother Xu, thank you."

"You're too kind, Senior Sister Xie."

Xu Ning waved his hand. "Rest your mind and focus on your recovery. I hope you can advance to the common seal realm as soon as possible."

"Alright."

Xie Wenyue nodded.

"I can't chat anymore, Senior Sister Xie. I just returned to the sect, so I have to go to the main peak to see my master."

Xu Ning said.

"Go ahead, it's more important to see the Sect Master."

Xie Wenyue did not ask him to stay.

Afterwards, the two bid farewell.

Xie Wenyue's eyes were gentle as she looked at Xu Ning's back. A faint smile appeared on her face.

Not only was Wenyue's state of mind not affected, but her realm had also improved. Seeing this, Xu Ning felt relieved.

After handing the pill to Xie Wenyue, Xu Ning felt that he had accomplished yet another task he had been wanting to do.

'Master should be in the sect now…'

Xu Ning thought to himself.

After arriving at the main peak, he asked the disciples serving at the Sect Master's Peak.

The answer he got was that Mi Xingye had gone to find Elder Yuan Cheng. He would come back later, and he had asked Xu Ning to wait for him.

At the same time, the disciple also told Xu Ning that there were two important figures on the Sect Master's Peak, who were apparently elders of the previous generation.

When Xu Ning heard this, he guessed that the previous elders must have come out of seclusion because of outsiders in the Endless Abyss.

Xu Ning walked up the main peak.

Soon, he saw two old men, one fat and one skinny, sitting under the shade of a tree, holding a chess piece and playing chess.

After Xu Ning came up, the two of them stopped what they were doing at the same time and turned their heads to look at Xu Ning.

"Junior Xu Ning greets the two elders."

Xu Ning also greeted them as a disciple.

The Yuelan Sect did not have grand elders so strictly speaking, these two previous generation elders did not have a position in the Yuelan Sect.

"So you are Xu Ning."

When the fat elder saw this, he chuckled and threw the chess piece in his hand onto the chessboard, disrupting the chess pieces.

The skinny elder glanced at the chessboard and frowned. He stared at the fat elder, seemingly a little annoyed.

But in the end, the skinny elder didn't say anything. He turned his head and looked at Xu Ning with a kind expression.

'They are both half-step dao realm masters…'

Xu Ning had already noticed the strength of these two people. 'Just like Sect Master Feng Xiu said, a top sect like the Yuelan Sect don't only have the strength they show on the surface.'

"You are not even 30 years old, but you are already a true domain realm martial artist."

The skinny elder stroked his beard.

"I'm 21 years old this year."

Xu Ning had been in this world for nearly three years.

"Oh…"

The skinny elder pretended to be calm, but the force exerted from his hand caused him to pull out some strands of beard.

"Good aptitude, there is hope for the dao realm."

The skinny elder muttered encouragingly.

The fat elder sneered and glanced at the skinny elder. "Stop pretending. When you were 21 years old, you probably just entered the void realm."

"Xu Ning, with your aptitude, you can definitely get into the dao realm. If you go to State Wansheng, you will definitely have the opportunity to stand firm and become a big shot."

The fat elder praised him straightforwardly.

"Thank you for your praises, elders…"

Xu Ning felt that the interaction between the two was quite interesting.

Afterwards, the two asked Xu Ning some questions.

After learning that Xu Ning was not only a true domain realm martial artist, but had also mastered four secret techniques, they were shocked again.

Without a doubt, Xu Ning was the most talented person ever since the Yuelan Sect was established.

"Xu Ning is back?"

Mi Xingye and Elder Yuan Cheng returned at the same time.

"Master, Elder Yuan Cheng."

Xu Ning greeted again.

"Killing Feng Changge and destroying the Phantom Blood Sect. You are bringing glory to the Yuelan Sect!"

Before Mi Xingye could speak, Elder Yuan Cheng spoke first.

Elder Yuan Cheng was a little jealous.

If it weren't for Mi Xingye, Xu Ning would have been his disciple.

If he knew that Xu Ning would perform so well, he would have snatched Xu Ning away from the Sect Master back then, even if it meant falling out with him.

"Xu Ning, have you met the two elders?"

When Mi Xingye saw Xu Ning, he was happy, but his expression was tense.

"Yes."

Xu Ning responded.

"This is Elder Qiu Renshan."

Mi Xingye introduced the skinny elder.

"And this is Elder Du Yuan."

Mi Xingye introduced the fat elder.

Mi Xingye and Elder Yuancheng were also respectful towards the two previous generation elders.

"We have discussed with those old guys about the Thousand Flood Sect. The matter of the two sects joining forces has been completely finalized."

Qiu Renshan did not hide these secrets from Xu Ning.

"That's good."

Mi Xingye nodded. "In this case, should we go to State Feiyun and finalize the details of the alliance between the three states?"

As long as the Yuelan Sect and the Thousand Flood Sect had the same attitude, the matter of State Jifeng joining the three states was finalized.

"No need."

Elder Du Yuan waved his hand. "We have already agreed with the Source Sect on this matter. We are just waiting to unify State Jifeng."

"Thank you for your efforts, two elders."

Mi Xingye smiled.

After these two came out of seclusion, he felt relieved as the Sect Master.

"When we communicated with the Source Sect, we received new information."

Elder Qiushan said, "The people from State Wansheng came to the seventeen states of the Abyss North for two reasons. The first reason is to find a person called Old Man Wan Ye, and the second reason is to find a treasure called the Demon Beast Scroll."

'Demon Beast Scroll?'

Hearing this, Xu Ning's pupils contracted.

Report chapter

Chapter 202: Exposed?

The Demon Beast Scroll was currently being refined by Gray, but now it had become one of the goals of the people from State Wansheng.

Xu Ning's heart tightened.

If those people really came and discovered the location of the Demon Beast Scroll, Gray would be in danger.

"Old Man Wan Ye? Demon Beast Scroll?"

The others did not notice Xu Ning's abnormality, but after hearing the intentions of those people, Mi Xingye and Yuan Cheng both frowned. They had obviously never heard of them.

"That's right."

Elder Du Yuan said, "We have to send people to collect information about him and the treasure. If we can provide clues to them and have them return immediately after completing their mission, that would be great."

For the people in the seventeen states of the Abyss North, fighting against the guests was not their goal. Their goal was to ensure the safety of the Yuelan Sect.

"I will send my subordinates to take note of this."

Elder Yuan Cheng nodded.

"There are also some finalized details…"

Elder Qiu Renshan spoke again, giving Mi Xingye and Elder Yuan Cheng instructions.

Xu Ning stood aside and listened quietly.

Unknowingly, Xu Ning had become a core member of the Yuelan Sect.

The secret matters discussed by Qiu Renshan, Du Yuan, and Mi Xingye were unknown to the other elders, but Xu Ning was the first to know.

"In short, next, you have to work with the Thousand Flood Sect to contact the various sects in State Jifeng and explain the reason. We need to unite State Jifeng before the arrival of the people from State Wansheng. We can't be broken apart and be used by the other party."

Elder Qiu Renshan added.

"Don't worry, I will personally visit the major sects in State Jifeng."

Mi Xingye said, "Those who are willing to join forces shall be able to join. As for those who aren't willing, I will join forces with the Thousand Flood Sect and make them listen."

Mi Xingye's tone was domineering.

This incident was also an opportunity.

Under the premise of ensuring that the neighboring states became allies, the Yuelan Sect and the Thousand Flood Sect could use the excuse of integrating internal forces to expand the influence of the two sects.

Soon, the exchange between the four was over.

Qiu Renshan and Du Yuan went to visit other elders.

As for Elder Yuan Cheng, he also went to set up a scouting group to search for news about Old Man Wan Ye and the Demon Beast Scroll.

"Xu Ning, your senior brother should return soon."

After the three of them left, Mi Xingye said to Xu Ning.

"Senior Brother must have gained a lot from his trip."

The reason why He Mingye left to travel was because he was stuck in the true intent realm and couldn't improve. He went out to find a chance to advance to the true domain realm.

"When your senior brother returns, the two of you must be united. The two of you are the foundation and hope of the Yuelan Sect."

Mi Xingye's expression was serious.

Mi Xingye already knew that He Mingye and Xu Ning's talents far exceeded their peers.

In Mi Xingye's opinion, before the two advanced to the dao realm, they could totally take on the heavy responsibilities of the sect.

"Master, don't worry."

Xu Ning responded.

The two chatted for a while before Xu Ning left the Sect Master's Peak.

Afterwards, Xu Ning went to the sect to find his acquaintances—Le Caiwei, Gu Qinghe, Ning Xun, and the others.

After that, he returned to his residence.

He planned to refine some Heartless Pills and some pills that could provide energy in the near future.

He would then use this opportunity to learn two new secret techniques. Once the techniques reached the ninth level, he would cultivate a dao realm technique and strive to advance to a half-step dao realm master as soon as possible.

After that, Xu Ning planned to go to the Fog Night Abyss again to see if he could communicate with Gray and Xu Hujun in the Demon Beast Scroll and explain the current situation to them.

A few days went by.

Gu Juan's Elder Peak.

Recently, Elder Gu Juan felt very annoyed.

His favorite disciple, Fang Jie, had lost contact with him for more than half a year.

He was sent to the Bao family, but he did not return after a few months.

Elder Gu Juan was worried, so he sent someone to find him. However, his subordinates told him that Fang Jie had left the Bao family a long time ago.

After this news was brought back, Elder Gu Juan had a bad feeling.

Although Fang Jie had gone out to travel in the past too, he would always tell him where he was going before leaving.

Fang Jie was different from Bao Ruyuan. In Elder Gu Juan's heart, Fang Jie was one of the best.

This time, Fang Jie disappearance made Elder Gu Juan worried.

Moreover, recently, Mi Xingye's in-name disciple, Xu Ning, had returned. Not only had he advanced to the true domain realm, but he had also killed Feng Changge of the Phantom Blood Sect, causing his reputation to skyrocket. This further agitated Elder Gu Juan.

In order to find out about Fang Jie's situation as soon as possible, Elder Gu Juan had sent out his trusted deacon to investigate this matter, and the results should be coming back soon.

At this moment, Elder Gu Juan was sitting quietly in the room.

A skinny old man with gray hair suddenly came to his Elder Peak.

"Gu Juan."

The old man ignored the disciples on Elder Peak and went straight in.

When Elder Gu Juan heard the call, he opened his eyes. After seeing who it was, he looked surprised.

"Elder Duan!"

Elder Gu Juan quickly stood up and greeted, "Why are you here?"

Elder Gu Juan was normally extremely arrogant. He was also an elder in the sect, so he was usually cold to everyone.

But after seeing this person, Elder Gu Juan acted unusually humble.

The reason for this was because Elder Duan Qinghui had helped Elder Gu Juan greatly in the past.

Like Qiu Renshan, Du Yuan, and others, Duan Qinghui was a previous generation elder of the Yuelan Sect.

When Gu Juan and Mi Xingye were competing against each other, Duan Qinghui tried his best to help Gu Juan. He wanted to promote Gu Juan to the position of sect master, but the result was not as he wished.

"You don't know why I came?"

Duan Qinghui narrowed his eyes and asked.

"I don't know."

Elder Gu Juan shook his head.

Ever since Duan Qinghui retired as an elder, he rarely took the initiative to leave his seclusion.

Before coming here, he had not informed him as well.

"It seems that you are an outsider in the Yuelan Sect…"

There was a hint of mockery in Duan Qinghui's tone.

"Elder Duan, please explain."

Elder Gu Juan had some guesses.

"The seventeen states of the Abyss North might welcome uninvited guests, so we old guys were invited out again to deal with the unexpected."

Duan Qinghui explained the cause and effect of the people from State Wansheng to Gu Juan.

After hearing this, Elder Gu Juan's face turned black. He couldn't say a word.

As an elder of the Yuelan Sect, he didn't even know about such a major event.

It was fine if he didn't know, but Yuan Cheng was involved the entire time. Moreover, the other elders also knew the inside story, which made Elder Gu Juan extremely unhappy.

"Outrageous!"

After a long time, Elder Gu Juan said coldly.

Just like Duan Qinghui said, he had indeed become a sidelined figure of the Yuelan Sect.

Instantly, Elder Gu Juan's hatred for Mi Xingye increased.

"Alright."

Seeing Gu Juan's attitude, Duan Qinghui said, "In the face of a potential crisis, personal grudges have to be put aside first. The battle between you and Mi Xingye has already been settled when he took over as the sect master. What's next is the competition between the younger generation."

"Speaking of the younger generation, where is Fang Jie? I haven't seen him for a long time. Has he advanced to the common seal realm?"

Duan Qinghui had a deep impression of Fang Jie. When Elder Gu Juan brought Fang Jie to see him, he had also given Fang Jie many good things.

However, over the years, Duan Qinghui didn't know much about the happenings in the outside world.

"Fang Jie has long advanced to the true intent realm, but…"

Gu Juan pursed his lips.

When Duan Qinghui heard that Fang Jie had advanced to the true intent realm, a look of joy appeared in his eyes, but when he heard that there was something wrong with Elder Gu Juan's tone, he asked, "But what?"

"It's just that Fang Jie and I have lost contact for more than half a year."

Elder Gu Juan's voice was low.

"What?"

Duan Qinghui's eyes showed a hint of coldness. "He had an accident?"

"I'm not sure yet."

Elder Gu Juan answered truthfully.

Duan Qinghui's expression was ugly. He was silent for a long time.

"Let me know when there is news."

Duan Qinghui sighed and said, "I will stay here for a while."

"Yes…"

Elder Gu Juan responded.

Afterwards, Duan Qinghui left Elder Peak and went to the Sect Master's Peak, where Qiu Renshan, Du Yuan, and others were still waiting for him.

Once Duan Qinghui left.

Pak!

Elder Gu Juan no longer suppressed the anger in his heart. He picked up the teacup and smashed it.

"Mi Xingye, do you really think I'm a pushover?"

He couldn't calm down.

"Elder."

As he was raging, a timid voice came from outside the house.

"Elder, Deacon Jia is here."

The disciple said.

After hearing the identity of the visitor, Elder Gu Juan forcibly calmed down.

This Deacon Jia was the confidant he sent to investigate Fang Jie's disappearance.

"Let him in."

Elder Gu Juan said sternly.

"Elder Gu."

Deacon Jia rushed in and bowed to Elder Gu Juan.

He noticed that there was something wrong with Elder Gu Juan's mental state, so he was cautious.

"Have you found out where Fang Jie is?"

Elder Gu Juan asked with a concerned expression.

"No."

Deacon Jia braced himself and answered.

Elder Gu Juan was disappointed.

"But Elder Gu, I found something special in the Bao family."

Deacon Jia said.

"Tell me."

Gu Juan said coldly.

"Before Fang Jie made his last contact with the Bao family, Bao Qiuhua and a clan elder named Bao Xinxian of the Bao family were killed by someone."

Deacon Jia explained.

"Bao Qiuhua is dead?"

Elder Gu Juan's eyes twitched.

Although he hadn't been in contact with Bao Qiuhua for a long time, they did have a personal relationship when they were young.

"Yes."

Deacon Jia continued, "Before the two were killed, there was indeed an unknown powerhouse closing in on the Bao family. Fang Jie wanted to search for him, but he failed."

"After interrogating several clan elders and clan leaders of the Bao family, I learned that the two went to State Feiyun at the same time two years ago. They went to State Feiyun to capture the descendants of the Wei family, for the goal of using their blood to unseal a dao seal."

"Continue."

Gu Juan urged.

"After Bao Qiuhua was killed, the dao seal was stolen and the descendants of the Wei family were saved."

Deacon Jia said, "Afterwards, I went to Yunying City in State Feiyun to inquire about the Wei family…"

"The descendants of the Wei family had returned home safely, and the person accompanying them was Xu Ning from the Yuelan Sect."

Chapter 203: [Attribute Seed: 0]; Seeing He Mingye Again

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

"Xu Ning?!"

After hearing Deacon Jia's words, a terrifying aura exuded from Gu Juan instantly pressed down on Deacon Jia's body.

Deacon Jia's face turned pale. He was under tremendous pressure.

But he didn't dare to say anything while facing Gu Juan.

"Are you sure?"

Gu Juan stared at Deacon Jia with an ugly expression.

Xu Ning's existence had already aggravated Gu Juan greatly.

But now, after hearing that Fang Jie's disappearance might even be related to Xu Ning, Gu Juan's heart was about to explode.

"I'm sure."

Deacon Jia quickly said, "I asked around Yunying City numerous times to confirm this news."

Gu Juan clenched his fists, his knuckles cracking.

Elder Gu Juan was almost certain that Xu Ning was suspicious.

According to Deacon Jia, after the descendants of the Wei family were rescued, they returned home safely. And when they returned, they were accompanied by Xu Ning.

There was a high probability that Xu Ning was behind this.

Moreover, according to his strength, if Xu Ning could kill Feng Changge, he was at least in the true domain realm. In this case, half a year ago, he was likely to have reached the common seal realm or even the true intent realm. And if Mi Xingye gave him a dao weapon, it would be easy to kill Bao Qiuhua or even Fang Jie.

'Fang Jie's disappearance is most likely his doing…'

Although there was no direct evidence, this was too much of a coincidence.

Elder Gu Juan didn't believe that such a coincidence would happen at the same time. Moreover, when Fang Jie disappeared, Xu Ning was indeed traveling outside and not in the sect.

"Deacon Jia, you did well."

Elder Gu Juan's voice was terrifyingly calm. Hearing it, Deacon Jia felt a chill all over his body.

"This is my duty."

Deacon Jia quickly lowered his head.

Elder Gu Juan glanced at him, then flipped his wrist before a porcelain bottle appeared in his hand.

"This is your reward, go back."

Elder Gu Juan threw the porcelain bottle to Deacon Jia. "Remember, don't spread this matter. Just pretend that you don't know anything."

"Yes, yes…"

Deacon Jia quickly responded and stepped back. He then seemed to realize something when he stood still again. "Thank you, Elder…"

Immediately after, Deacon Jia left the room.

Inside the room, Gu Juan was alone again.

"Fang Jie…"

Gu Juan's eyes were cold. He knew very well that Fang Jie might have died.

"Xu Ning…"

Gu Juan hated Xu Ning. As soon as he realized this, he immediately wanted to kill Xu Ning.

'Even if it is not Xu Ning, he is likely involved.'

Gu Juan was thinking about ways to find out about Fang Jie's situation from Xu Ning. 'Xu Ning killed Feng Changge, so he should have a dao weapon and be in the true domain realm.'

Gu Juan's guess about Xu Ning was basically correct.

However, this guess had mistakes as well.

The news of Xu Ning killing Feng Changge was true, but the news of Feng Changge advancing to a half-step dao realm master was not widely spread.

Therefore, Gu Juan thought that Xu Ning's true combat power was only at the peak of the ordinary true domain realm.

'I have been in the true domain realm for a long time, and I am only one step away from being a half-step dao realm master. Moreover, I am holding a dao weapon. If I have the opportunity, it will not be difficult to kill Xu Ning.'

Elder Gu Juan thought to himself, 'However… my goal is not to kill him directly, but to capture him alive and find out about Fang Jie's situation from him.'

Although he knew that Fang Jie might have been killed, Elder Gu Juan still had a glimmer of hope.

'It will be difficult to capture him alive with my strength alone. For safety reasons, I have to find help…'

There was a cold look in Elder Gu Juan's eyes.

After thinking for a moment, he flicked his sleeves and walked out of the room, leaving the Elder Peak.

Although there was news about Fang Jie, Elder Gu Juan did not listen to Duan Qinghui's instructions to tell him about this.

Because he had to keep this incident of him laying hands on Xu Ning a secret.

At this moment in time, Xu Ning didn't know that he had been targeted by Gu Juan.

Even if he knew, Xu Ning would not panic.

Not only was he in the peak of the true domain realm, but he also practiced a dual attribute secret scroll. He had also cultivated four secret techniques to the ninth level, and had a dao weapon bracer. Even a half-step dao realm master with a dao weapon was not his opponent.

Inside the house.

Bang!

A transparent and pure pill flew out of the furnace in front of Xu Ning.

Xu Ning grabbed it, and it was still warm to the touch.

'Is this a Heartless Pill?'

Xu Ning spent several days gathering ten sets of materials to refine a Heartless Pill, only to refine it after six tries.

'Refining this Heartless Pill is too difficult…'

Although the Heartless Pill was an exclusive pill for miraculous alchemists, Xu Ning had already cultivated the Inkmoon Pill Sutra to the ninth level, but he still failed five times before successfully refining one. This was enough to show how difficult it was to successfully refine a Heartless Pill.

'I still have four sets of materials left, let's see if I can refine another Heartless Pill.'

Now that he had just refined a Heartless Pill, he was in fervor. If he could refine another one, he could prepare for future emergencies.

And so, Xu Ning threw in the materials.

After another round of refinement, Xu Ning used up four sets of materials to refine another Heartless Pill.

"Whether it is an orthodox alchemy technique or miraculous alchemy technique, they are both endlessly profound."

After Xu Ning mastered two alchemy techniques with different inner philosophies, his understanding of the medicines itself became more and more profound.

'I have already learned the dao realm method, so what I need to do next is to advance the two new secret techniques to the ninth level, then condense the attribute seeds…'

Xu Ning had tried to engrave the dao realm method previously.

However, the strange thing was that he could not succeed.

It was not that Xu Ning's aptitude was insufficient, but that the dao realm method itself was a method, not a martial arts technique.

After Xu Ning understood it, the dao realm method did not appear on the Martial Arts Panel, but the Martial Arts Panel had changed.

After Xu Ning advanced to the true domain realm, the "" sign next to the Cold Flame Dual Source Scroll disappeared.

This meant that the Cold Flame Dual Source Scroll had been cultivated to the extreme and could no longer be improved.

But after learning the dao realm method, the "" symbol appeared again.

The column had now become 'Cold Flame Dual Source Scroll (Void Realm Ninth Stage: True Domain Realm [Attribute Seed: 0] '.

This meant that Xu Ning had a way to improve.

However, although there was a way to improve, Xu Ning was facing another problem, which was that he needed a lot of energy.

He also had to learn two void realm secret techniques, which required more than 30,000 energy units to advance from zero to the ninth level.

Moreover, condensing an attribute seed would cost 25,000 units of energy per seed. The condensation of six seeds would cost 150,000 units of energy.

With this level of consumption, even if he continuously refined medicinal pills and sold medicinal pills, the process would take extremely long.

180,000 units of energy. Xu Ning felt that this kind of resource reserves could only be possessed by elders like Mi Xingye, Gu Juan, or Yuan Cheng.

And he would definitely not be able to convince Mi Xingye to take out his entire fortune to help him advance to a half-step dao realm master with six attribute seeds.

'If I really have no choice, then I can only use time to accumulate energy…'

Although the process of selling pills was relatively long, it was relatively stable. This was Xu Ning's final guarantee.

Of course, Xu Ning hoped that he could obtain another large amount of resources to directly fill up the energy needed.

After all, the people from State Wansheng were a huge potential crisis. Only by improving his strength could he better deal with the uncertain situation.

'Should I go to the Fog Night Abyss first?'

Xu Ning thought, 'If I can enter the Demon Beast Scroll again, maybe Xu Hujun and Gray can help me. After all, there are plenty of resources in the Demon Beast Scroll.'

Thinking of this, Xu Ning decided to find an energy source in the Demon Beast Scroll.

But before that, Xu Ning had to consult Mi Xingye first.

Currently, his overall combat strength was high, and he was already the core of the sect. There were many affairs in the Yuelan Sect, so Xu Ning had to help him.

In addition, Xu Ning had to let Chu Yeyang take the Heartless Pill to see its effect.

Afterwards, Xu Ning casually refined some medicinal pills and used up the remaining raw materials in his hands.

Xu Ning was about to go to the main peak when he suddenly heard a disciple say that He Mingye had returned to the Yuelan Sect and was now in the core disciple sect.

When Xu Ning heard this, he changed his mind and prepared to see his Senior Brother He Mingye first.

Xu Ning walked towards the core disciple sect.

Soon, Xu Ning arrived at He Mingye's villa.

At the door, Xu Ning saw the two sword-bearing teenagers in He Mingye's courtyard.

Before He Mingye left, they were both in the mortal realm, but now, they had both advanced to the void realm.

Obviously, their advancement was a result of He Mingye's guidance after he returned.

"Senior Brother Xu!"

The two were not surprised to see Xu Ning. It was as if they had been waiting for him for a long time.

"After Senior Brother He returned to the sect, he was going to find you, but after learning that you were in seclusion, he didn't disturb you."

The sword-bearing young man said, "He knew that after you came out of seclusion, you would definitely come to find him, so he has been waiting for you in the villa."

Xu Ning smiled when he heard his words. "I got it."

Xu Ning walked into the villa.

The current Xu Ning could already feel He Mingye's aura.

The current He Mingye had also advanced to the void realm ninth stage.

"Junior Brother!"

After taking a few steps, He Mingye went out to welcome him.

When Xu Ning arrived, he also sensed Xu Ning's aura.

"Senior Brother!"

After not seeing each other for a long time, the two smiled knowingly.

"Congratulations on reaching the true domain realm, Senior Brother!"

Xu Ning cupped his fists.

"Junior Brother, stop joking."

He Mingye stepped forward. "Compared to you killing Feng Changge, I am far behind you."

There was no jealousy or envy in He Mingye's tone, only joy.

"Senior Brother, you have been away from the sect for a while. I wonder where you went, and did you find anything good?"

Xu Ning asked.

"I have traveled more than half of the seventeen states of the Abyss North. My state of mind has been tempered, and I have gained a lot in terms of martial arts."

He Mingye said, "Come, let's do some catching up in the backyard."

The two had many things to say to each other.

Report chapter

Chapter 204: Gu Juan's Revenge

After taking Xu Ning to the backyard, the two described their experiences after their last farewell.

Afterwards, the conversation took a long detour before going back to martial arts.

"Junior Brother, you have already cultivated four secret techniques to the ninth level, are you not planning to condense your attribute seeds yet?"

He Mingye's tone was curious.

"I'm already preparing to condense them."

Xu Ning said without hiding anything.

Whether it was condensing attribute seeds or learning void realm secret techniques, Xu Ning could do both at the same time.

The progress between the two was not mutually exclusive.

Xu Ning could condense four attribute seeds first, then learn two new secret techniques, before finally condensing the remaining two attribute seeds.

This was what most half-step dao realm masters were doing.

Take Qiu Renshan, Du Yuan, and other elders of the Yuelan Sect as an example. They had cultivated for more than a hundred years, and they had long condensed attribute seeds to become half-step dao realm masters.

But in order to advance perfectly, meaning to condense the upper limit of the three dao realm seeds of the same attribute, they would deliberately suppress their cultivation and cultivate their new void realm secret technique to the ninth level before attempting to break through.

This was why Feng Xiu said that the top sects had deep roots, and that they were not helpless against the people from State Wansheng.

If it was a critical moment, these half-step dao realm masters who suppressed their strength could totally break through in advance. Although the effect of breaking through was slightly worse, they would still be in the dao realm.

"What about Senior Brother?"

Xu Ning asked.

"I have already begun."

He Mingye said, "I plan to condense an attribute seed while also learning a new secret technique. I only want two attribute seeds for each of my water and fire attributes. With this foundation, I can break through to the dao realm."

"Junior Brother, your talent is higher. So it's best if you condense six attribute seeds before trying to break through to the dao realm."

He Mingye said, "The more attribute seeds you condense, the stronger your foundation will be. After breaking through to the dao realm, your upper limit will be higher, and your combat power will be stronger."

"I will."

Xu Ning nodded.

"By the way, Junior Brother, you should already know that people are coming from State Wansheng."

He Mingye said, "Over the past few days when you were in seclusion, a large portion of the reclusive sect elders have returned. In a few days, the higher-ups of the three states will truly unite and form an alliance. At that time, we will all be assigned tasks. So before that, you have to deal with all the matters that need to be dealt with, otherwise you may be swamped with tasks."

"Is that so…"

Xu Ning nodded as he pondered. "I got it, Senior Brother."

After leaving He Mingye's villa, Xu Ning left the sect immediately.

According to He Mingye, he might be assigned tasks soon.

So before that, he had to go to the Fog Night Abyss and inform Gray and Xu Hujun about the upcoming matter, so that they could be prepared.

The people from State Wansheng who were aiming for the Demon Beast Scroll were too dangerous.

After leaving the sect, Xu Ning called Little Gray and asked it to take him to Chu Yeyang.

After flying for a while, Little Gray brought Xu Ning to a giant bird nest on a mountain peak.

Inside the nest, Chu Yeyang was still frozen.

Xu Ning gave Chu Yeyang the antidote.

"This is…"

After Chu Yeyang woke up, he found himself being watched by Xu Ning and a demon beast.

"I have been taken out of the mystic realm?"

Chu Yeyang was still a little dizzy.

"Sir…"

Chu Yeyang wanted to beg Xu Ning to let him go, but Xu Ning did not give him a chance.

He forced Chu Yeyang to swallow the Heartless Pill.

After swallowing the Heartless Pill, Chu Yeyang's eyes became a little blank. His eyes lost their luster, as if his consciousness had been erased.

"According to the description of the Heartless Pill, this Chu Yeyang is currently digesting the pill's medicinal power. Once the medicinal power has been completely digested, he will regain his consciousness and retain his memory, but will be obedient to me."

As he mumbled, Xu Ning began to use the Heartless Pill according to the instructions and started planting seeds of consciousness into Chu Yeyang, in order to have him listen to his orders.

During this process, Chu Yeyang showed some resistance, but under the effect of the pill, he did not succeed.

After about half an hour, Chu Yeyang's pupils suddenly contracted and he regained his mobility.

But compared to before, Chu Yeyang exuded a more chilling vibe.

'Is the Heartless Pill working?'

Xu Ning decided to test it out.

He returned the short knife he had gotten from Chu Yeyang. "Use it to pierce your throat."

Chu Yeyang took it without hesitation and directed it towards him.

"Stop!"

After Chu Yeyang slightly pierced his skin with the short knife, Xu Ning quickly stopped him.

Xu Ning knew very well that if he hadn't issued the stop order just now, Chu Yeyang might have already died.

'The effect of this Heartless Pill is indeed domineering. No wonder the alchemy scroll stated that Heartless Pills are used to train underlings in State Wansheng.'

Xu Ning thought to himself before staring at Chu Yeyang.

"Chu Yeyang, take your dao weapon, go to State Feiyun, and protect my family."

After confirming that Chu Yeyang would completely follow his orders, Xu Ning gave him a new order.

This was Xu Ning's plan before he decided to give Chu Yeyang the Heartless Pill.

Although the Tao Village was protected by Liu Yijian, Liu Yijian was much weaker than Chu Yeyang.

If the situation became more chaotic, Xu Ning would feel more at ease with Chu Yeyang protecting the Tao Village.

'The effect of the Heartless Pill is limited. With the quality of this Heartless Pill, the true intent realm Chu Yeyang would be only under the effect of this pill for slightly over five years.'

Afterwards, Xu Ning told Chu Yeyang about the Tao Village and his family.

At the same time, Xu Ning also ordered Chu Yeyang to secretly protect his family. He shouldn't disturbed them, or show himself unless they were in danger.

After Chu Yeyang received Xu Ning's instructions, he was sent by Xu Ning to go to State Feiyun.

'Chu Yeyang has the strength of a true intent realm master and he also has a dao weapon. As long as he is around, ordinary true domain realm martial artists won't be able to hurt the Tao Village.'

Xu Ning thought to himself as he watched Chu Yeyang disappearing into the distance.

'Next, I shall go to the Fog Night Abyss to find Gray and Xu Hujun.'

Xu Ning made a plan.

"Little Gray, let's go. Take me to the Fog Night Abyss!"

Little Gray lowered its head with Xu Ning's order.

After Xu Ning sat on Little Gray's back, Little Gray turned into a black line and flew into the distance.

However, before flying out of the mountain range, Xu Ning noticed a trace of danger lurking in the dark.

"Gu Juan, after this incident, I owe you nothing."

On a mountain, where Xu Ning was heading towards, Gu Juan and a bald old man were lurking in the dark.

The bald old man had a domineering aura. Ordinary void realm martial artists would be overwhelmed by his aura.

"Zhang Tong, don't worry. Once we succeed, we won't owe each other anything in the future. I will also give you my thanks."

Gu Juan said.

"No need for that."

The bald old man named Zhang Tong refused with a serious expression.

Before this, Gu Juan had planned to capture Xu Ning alive to find out about Fang Jie.

If Fang Jie was still alive, he would find Fang Jie, but if anything happened to Fang Jie, he would secretly get rid of Xu Ning for revenge.

However, Gu Juan was cautious. He felt that capturing Xu Ning alone was too difficult, so he found Zhang Tong and asked him to help him.

Zhang Tong was saved by Gu Juan decades ago.

In order to repay Gu Juan's kindness, he had done many things for Gu Juan against his will.

This time, Gu Juan also asked Zhang Tong to help him.

After knowing that he was going to attack Mi Xingye's disciple, Zhang Tong wanted to refuse.

But Gu Juan told him that once this matter was done, they would no longer owe each other anything.

Thus, Zhang Tong agreed to Gu Juan's conditions and decided to deal with Xu Ning together with him.

Gu Juan glanced at Zhang Tong. He knew that he was not happy.

But he was not worried. He knew very well that Zhang Tong's weakness was to use kindness to threaten him.

Even though he disliked what he was about to do, he would do his best.

"He's coming out!"

Gu Juan sensed Xu Ning's aura approaching.

After Xu Ning left the Yuelan Sect, Gu Juan had his eyes on Xu Ning. He was afraid that Xu Ning would discover him and Zhang Tong so they had not only taken a large number of Breath Restraining Pills, but they had also been hiding in the distance, waiting for Xu Ning to arrive.

"When he passes by us, we will attack simultaneously and use our full strength to capture him!"

Gu Juan said to Zhang Tong.

"Understood."

Zhang Tong was also prepared.

'Huh?'

However, they suddenly noticed that the speed of the demon beast under Xu Ning was slowing down.

"Not good, he might have noticed us!"

Gu Juan frowned. "Attack!"

Gu Juan and Zhang Tong activated their attribute domains at the same time. They each took out their dao weapons and rushed towards Xu Ning.

Although Little Gray was flying nearly a hundred meters in the sky, this was not a problem for the two.

'Sure enough, someone wants to attack me!'

Xu Ning saw two shadows with terrifying auras rushing towards him.

Without hesitation, he instantly activated his bracer and expanded his dual attribute domain. He then activated the Flame Breath Bone Sutra, wrapping himself and Little Gray.

Xu Ning's attribute domain overlapped with Gu Juan's and Zhang Tong's.

'Two half-step dao realm masters holding dao weapons!'

Xu Ning immediately determined the strength of the enemies. 'There is a very familiar aura!'

Bang!

Gu Juan and Zhang Tong attacked from both sides.

"Sword seal!"

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Inside Xu Ning's domain, there was a rain of swords.

Gu Juan and Zhang Tong also activated countless wind blades and knife rain to resist.

Bang!

The two sides were evenly matched in the first confrontation. Eventually, they were repelled by the force of the collision.

"Elder Gu Juan?"

After pulling away, Xu Ning recognized Elder Gu Juan.

Report chapter

Chapter 205: Special Dao Weapon

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Looking at the stunned Elder Gu Juan who had landed on the ground, Xu Ning was a little surprised, but he soon understood.

The reason why Elder Gu Juan attacked him was easy to guess.

Either he discovered that Fang Jie had died in his hands, or he transferred the grudge between him and Mi Xingye to him.

Of course, it was more likely to be both.

'Huh?'

Xu Ning looked down at the two of them from Little Gray's back. Suddenly, he noticed something wrong.

'The two of them are not half-step dao realm masters.'

Xu Ning could not sense the aura of attribute seeds from them.

'But the lethality that the two of them showed just now was definitely something only a half-step dao realm master could do with a dao weapon.'

Xu Ning looked at the dao weapons in their hands.

Among the two, Gu Juan held a copper fan. The copper fan was one meter long, with strange lines flowing on its surface. There were also curved spikes on the top of the fan.

As for the bald old man, he was holding a copper knife. The lines on the surface of the knife were similar to the lines on the surface of the copper fan in Gu Juan's hand.

With just a look, Xu Ning felt that these two dao weapons should have come from the same dao realm master.

'Their dao weapons seem to be different…'

Xu Ning noticed this. 'And their dao weapons seem to be stronger than mine.'

Xu Ning could clearly sense that the lines on the surface of the copper fan and copper knife were different from the lines of other dao weapons. Compared to his weapons, their weapons had a more mysterious aura.

If an ordinary void realm martial artist held a dao weapon, they could fight enemies above their realm.

But with these dao weapons, Xu Ning felt that they could easily defeat enemies above their realm.

'What kind of dao weapon are those?'

Xu Ning was intrigued.

'He is actually so strong?'

While Xu Ning was looking at Gu Juan, Gu Juan was also looking at Xu Ning.

He raised his head and looked at Xu Ning. He was stunned at first, then he was full of fear.

Although he and Zhang Tong were only in the true domain realm, the dao weapons they held were relatively special.

This dao weapon was stolen from an injured warrior by him and Zhang Tong when they were young.

After the injured warrior discovered their deeds, he chased after them.

The situation was extremely critical at that time, and if it weren't for Gu Juan risking his life, Zhang Tong would have been killed on the spot.

Because of this, Zhang Tong owed Gu Juan a huge favor and was used by him until now.

However, after using their attribute domains and their full strength, they were only on par with Xu Ning. They couldn't get any advantages at all.

'Could this kid have advanced to become a half-step dao realm master?'

Gu Juan's expression was a little ugly.

Currently, Gu Juan was in a passive position. He and Zhang Tong had already been exposed. If they couldn't capture or kill Xu Ning, they would be in big trouble.

If this matter was exposed, even Duan Qinghui would not protect him, instead he would even take the initiative to clean up the mess.

Even though Gu Juan could say that Xu Ning had harmed Fang Jie first, there was no substantial evidence for that.

"Little Gray, you go first!"

Xu Ning jumped off Little Gray's back and landed on the ground, facing the two.

Under this kind of situation, Xu Ning couldn't protect Little Gray forever.

If a huge fight broke out between the two sides, Little Gray would easily be affected.

Little Gray gave a cry and flew into the distance.

It knew very well that if it stayed here, it would become Xu Ning's burden.

"Disciple Xu Ning greets Elder Gu Juan."

Xu Ning even took the initiative to greet Elder Gu Juan.

When Gu Juan saw this, he sneered with a gloomy face. "Xu Ning, let me ask you, is Fang Jie's disappearance related to you?"

Hearing this, Xu Ning's eyes twitched.

Since Gu Juan was asking in this kind of tone, it meant that he didn't have any concrete evidence.

However, this also showed that some vague clues pointed towards him.

"Senior Brother Fang Jie is missing, so why is Elder Gu Juan looking for me?"

Xu Ning obviously wouldn't admit it.

Seeing that Xu Ning had no intention of admitting it, Elder Gu Juan's expression became even colder.

After seeing Xu Ning's attitude, he felt that Fang Jie was most likely killed by Xu Ning.

"Elder Gu Juan, if you attack me like this, I'm afraid it violates the rules of the sect. If I report it, you will be in big trouble. You must know that the previous generation elders of the sect are all active right now."

Xu Ning's words were laced with threats.

Elder Gu Juan had a gloomy expression on his face. Faced with the threat, he couldn't say a word.

Zhang Tong's face was pale. He felt like he had been tricked.

Elder Gu Juan previously told him that they could easily capture Xu Ning.

But he didn't expect that in a two-on-one fight, they wouldn't gain any advantages.

This meant that no need to mention capturing him alive, even if they wanted to kill Xu Ning, they would have to pay a heavy price.

"It was a misunderstanding."

After a long silence, Elder Gu Juan suddenly squeezed out an ugly smile.

He had also realized the predicament Zhang Tong had realized and reacted.

Since he couldn't take down the killer, he could only retreat and find an opportunity in the future.

"Xu Ning, Fang Jie has been missing for a long time, and I heard some slanderous words from some people, so I attacked you."

Elder Gu Juan took the initiative to admit his mistake. "It's all my fault. I was too hot-headed. Please forgive me."

Although the situation was difficult to reconcile, Elder Gu Juan chose to surrender.

After decades of combat experience, Elder Gu Juan knew that unless he used a sneak attack and was willing to pay a heavy price, he would not be able to escape unscathed.

The best result now was that Xu Ning was afraid that his scheme against Fang Jie would be exposed and he didn't wish to blow up the situation.

'He actually lowered his head…'

Xu Ning was slightly surprised. He didn't expect that Elder Gu Juan would admit defeat.

The moment Gu Juan attacked him, it was decided that the two sides had become mortal enemies.

"A sect elder attacking a sect disciple is a serious matter."

Xu Ning pondered for a moment and said, "So, it's better to report it to the sect."

A cold light flashed in Gu Juan's eyes.

'Since the soft approach won't work, I have to use the hard approach.'

Gu Juan could also see Xu Ning's tough attitude.

He turned his head slightly and gave Zhang Tong a meaningful look.

Zhang Tong noticed this and nodded.

'So I have to use my trump card in the end…'

Zhang Tong subconsciously glanced at the copper knife in his hand, his eyes full of fear.

'The two of them…'

Xu Ning naturally saw their exchange of glances.

Shua! Shua!

Suddenly, Gu Juan and Zhang Tong moved at the same time.

Gu Juan used the curved spikes on the copper fan to cut his arm.

Zhang Tong also used the copper knife to cut his palm.

Blood seeped out of their wounds and seeped into the copper fan and copper knife.

At the same time, the two also activated their true qi and attribute power, pouring them into it.

'Huh?'

Xu Ning noticed something strange.

A dangerous aura was starting to spread from the surface of the dao weapons in their hands.

'These two have backup plans!'

Xu Ning reacted instantly. He activated his full strength and attacked the two.

But just as the domain spread, a rain of swords fell.

Two apparitions suddenly emerged from the copper knife and copper fan.

The apparition was several meters tall, and it was the head of a terrifying cyan wolf.

The eyes of the cyan wolf were red. Behind them, there was a tail that connected to the two of them.

The next moment, Gu Juan and Zhang Tong's eyes were red, their auras violent.

At first glance, they looked like demonic path martial artists.

'What kind of technique is this?'

Xu Ning was shocked.

He was quite knowledgeable about martial arts, but this was the first time he had seen such a technique.

"Let's end this quickly!"

Gu Juan secretly transmitted to Zhang Tong.

He and Zhang Tong controlled the cyan wolf apparition and attacked Xu Ning.

'That cyan wolf apparition gave them an even stronger external boost!'

Xu Ning quickly responded.

This time, Xu Ning felt pressure.

Not only did the cyan wolf apparition give the two of them a boost, but it could also devour the attribute power of his domain.

This caused Xu Ning's attribute power to be consumed rapidly.

'What is this?'

Although the situation was a little dangerous, Xu Ning did not panic at all.

This was because Xu Ning could sense that the two of them were impatient, as if they wanted to get rid of him in the shortest time possible.

'They don't seem to be able to maintain this state for long!'

Xu Ning discovered that when the two of them were controlling the cyan wolf apparition, they had also taken an additional burden.

Since he had discovered the opponent's weakness, it was easy to deal with.

'If I can maintain my defenses for a short period of time, their technique will collapse on its own!'

Xu Ning began to shrink his domain, condensing it around him.

By doing this, Xu Ning's consumption would be greatly reduced.

"Flame Breath Bone Sutra!"

Xu Ning even began to reduce his consumption of energy by willingly taking on more injuries.

While bearing the injuries, he activated the Flame Breath Bone Sutra to heal them.

As such, Xu Ning's energy consumption had dropped to the extreme.

'We are in trouble!'

While Xu Ning was stabilizing his condition, Gu Juan and Zhang Tong began to grow anxious.

They both knew the side effects of using the cyan wolf apparition.

If this continued, they would suffer more and more backlashes from the cyan wolf apparition.

"We can't defeat him!"

Gu Juan gritted his teeth. "Zhang Tong, let's go!"

Gu Juan had decided to give up his status as an elder of the Yuelan Sect and escape.

Zhang Tong was unwilling, but he had no choice.

From now on, he would be blacklisted by the Yuelan Sect, and he would be hunted down by the Yuelan Sect.

"Go!"

Zhang Tong responded.

Reserving the last of their strength, the two gave up on attacking Xu Ning and turned around to escape.

'Can't take it anymore?'

Xu Ning's eyes lit up.

His opportunity had come.

If they were fighting a battle of attrition, with Xu Ning's foundation, no one below the dao realm was his opponent.

Whoosh!

Xu Ning took out a handful of pills from his interspatial ring and stuffed them all into his mouth.

The effect of these pills was not to heal injuries, but to increase his immediate combat power.

Although he would be weakened for a while after the increase, it was worth it.

'This time, it's my turn!'

Xu Ning's shrunken domain instantly expanded, enveloping the two fleeing people.

Report chapter

Chapter 206: Half-step Dao Realm Master!

The attribute domain of a true domain realm master could extend for a hundred meters.

But Xu Ning had a strong foundation, allowing his attribute domain to be expanded up to more than three hundred meters.

Although the two fled quickly, they were not as fast as the expansion of Xu Ning's domain.

'It's over!'

Gu Juan and Zhang Tong realized that the situation was dangerous.

Being enveloped by Xu Ning's attribute domain, they couldn't escape even if they wanted to, so they were forced to fight again.

As they continued to fight, the faces of the two became paler and paler, while the apparition of the cyan wolf behind them became clearer and clearer.

It was as if the flesh and blood energy in their bodies were being absorbed by the cyan wolf apparition

'I can't continue. If I continue to communicate with this dao weapon, my flesh and blood essence will be completely absorbed!'

Zhang Tong was the first to break the connection with the dao weapon.

However, after losing the support of the copper knife dao weapon, Zhang Tong was immediately suppressed by Xu Ning's domain.

'I can't give up like this!'

Seeing that Zhang Tong had given up, Gu Juan gritted his teeth and persisted.

Gu Juan knew very well that once he admitted defeat, he would definitely die.

They would either be killed by Xu Ning, or be escorted back to the sect and be punished by the sect.

'It's all my fault for looking down on you!'

Gu Juan's eyes were full of determination.

'Whether you harmed Fang Jie or not, let's die together today!'

Elder Gu Juan roared and the flesh on his body quickly dried up, while the cyan wolf behind him barely materialized.

'Gu Juan is taking the initiative to feed his flesh to the cyan wolf!'

Zhang Tong felt the madness of Gu Juan.

Xu Ning also noticed this.

He could clearly sense that Gu Juan was preparing for his final attack.

Gu Juan withered at a visible rate.

He roared, but his voice was hoarse like metal rubbing against metal.

Gu Juan waved the copper fan in his hand, its surface covered with blood.

He suddenly rushed towards Xu Ning, and the copper fan in his hand turned into a wolf claw. With a blood-red storm blade, he attacked Xu Ning.

'This aura…'

Xu Ning had no time to dodge this attack. Faced with Gu Juan's aggressive attack, he took out the dao pill furnace and placed it in front of him.

At the same time, sword rain fell from the domain, trying to relieve Gu Juan's rush.

The fiery red armor activated by the Flame Breath Bone Sutra was also ready.

Boom!

Gu Juan slammed down.

The dao pill furnace that Xu Ning used to defend himself was blown back and smashed into Xu Ning.

Xu Ning felt the surging true qi and attribute power coming towards him, and the fiery red armor on his body completely shattered.

Pffft!

Xu Ning's mouth and nose were bleeding. His muscles and bones were also injured, but fortunately, this attack did not hurt Xu Ning's foundation.

'It didn't kill him…'

A look of regret appeared in Gu Juan's eyes, then his vitality was extinguished as he fell to the ground.

The cyan wolf apparition behind him turned into a wisp of blood red smoke and entered the copper fan the moment Gu Juan collapsed onto the ground.

"Trying to leave?"

Xu Ning was cleaning up the battlefield when he noticed that Zhang Tong was preparing to escape.

Although his injuries were not light, Xu Ning easily subdued Zhang Tong who had been weakened by the cyan wolf apparition.

"Who are you? Why did you help Gu Juan kill me?"

Xu Ning asked.

"Kill me if you want."

Zhang Tong stared at Xu Ning coldly. He could already foresee his end.

He just felt a little regretful. He should have dealt a final blow just like Gu Juan did.

"As you wish."

Xu Ning condensed a sword seal and chopped off Zhang Tong's head.

In fact, Xu Ning didn't want to kill him, because Xu Ning still wanted to figure out the origin of the two special dao weapons.

But this person was obviously resistant to him, so Xu Ning didn't want to waste his time on him.

This person was not a demonic path martial artist. So even if he was given a Heart Demon Pill and a Truth Pill, he would not be able to get any secrets out of him.

'Storage ring!'

While cleaning up the battlefield, Xu Ning not only took their copper knife and copper fan, but also nabbed storage rings from their bodies.

Generally speaking, a martial artist of this level would store their most precious treasures in their storage ring.

Xu Ning first injected true qi into Gu Juan's storage ring, and after a few seconds, the manipulation mark in the storage ring was erased by Xu Ning.

'What a big storage space!'

Xu Ning discovered that there were more than thirty cubic meters of space in Gu Juan's storage ring, which was three times larger than his own.

'I made a killing with this treasure!'

Inside Gu Juan's storage ring, in addition to dao seals and secret techniques, there were also various precious medicinal pills and spirit medicines.

Xu Ning roughly estimated that these resources could provide him with at least 100,000 energy units.

'I have the energy to condense the attribute seeds…'

Afterwards, Xu Ning erased the mark in the other storage ring and checked it.

'Although the resources in this person's storage ring are less than Gu Juan's, it can provide me with nearly 100,000 units of energy as well.'

Xu Ning didn't expect his gains to be so great after turning this crisis into an opportunity.

Just now, he was still wondering where to find the energy needed to condense six dao realm attribute seeds, but he didn't expect to just suddenly gather enough.

'Advancing to the half-step dao realm is a certainty.'

Afterwards, Xu Ning turned his attention to the copper knife and the copper fan.

'These two dao weapons are very strange…'

Xu Ning held a copper knife in one hand and a copper fan in the other.

Xu Ning didn't sense anything unusual from gripping them tightly.

Xu Ning hesitated for a moment before deciding to investigate.

After making up his mind, Xu Ning poured his true qi into the copper knife.

Whoosh!

As soon as Xu Ning's true qi penetrated it, he felt a violent aura.

He sensed a crazy consciousness in the copper knife.

'Cyan wolf…'

Xu Ning "saw" a giant cyan wolf howling.

Xu Ning immediately extracted his true qi from the copper knife.

'That cyan wolf is terrifying. It must be a dao realm demon beast…'

Xu Ning had a fearful look on his face. 'If I'm not wrong, there should be a wisp of the cyan wolf's will sealed inside this bronze knife.'

'There are no manipulation marks in this special dao weapon, so anyone can use it. However, if I want to activate its power, I have to let it devour my true qi, attribute power, and flesh essence.'

Xu Ning had figured out how to use this special dao weapon.

'What kind of person refined this dao weapon?'

Xu Ning could feel how terrifying this dao weapon was.

He even had the illusion that with his strength and foundation, if he took the initiative to activate the will of the cyan wolf in this dao weapon, he would receive a terrifying boost that could help him be infinitely close to the dao realm.

Afterwards, Xu Ning checked the copper fan, and he found that it was no different from the copper knife.

'Let me put it away first…'

Xu Ning felt that this uncontrollable special dao weapon was dangerous, so he didn't plan to use it for the time being.

Xu Ning put away the two dao weapons.

'I'll find a place to condense the attribute seeds first and advance to the half-step dao realm.'

Xu Ning cleaned up the battlefield and erased the traces.

Although Gu Juan took the initiative to attack him, Xu Ning didn't want to expose this matter.

After all, there was something wrong with him as well.

More importantly, if the sect learned about this, he might not be able to obtain the resources of Gu Juan and that other person.

After doing all of this, Xu Ning found a nearby cave and drove out the mortal realm demon beasts inside, then began to absorb the resources in the storage rings.

Pills, spirit medicines, and other things containing energy were absorbed by Xu Ning.

The Martial Arts Panel's energy absorption notification was constantly refreshing in front of Xu Ning.

After half an hour, Xu Ning converted all of the resources into energy.

Xu Ning's total energy reserves had reached more than 200,000 units.

'I'll choose two void realm secret techniques first!'

Xu Ning chose two of his secret techniques from his reserves.

The water attribute void realm secret technique he chose was called the Water Shadow Aberration, a movement secret technique.

After reaching the ninth level, Xu Ning could cover his entire body with water patterns, isolating his aura. At the same time, he could also condense another water pattern double, which could confuse the enemy.

With this Water Shadow Aberration, Xu Ning's survivability would improve.

As for the fire attribute secret technique, Xu Ning chose the Volcano Fist. He chose it because it was compatible with Tidal Fist.

Prior to this, Xu Ning's strongest offensive technique was the combination of the Water Cross Sword and the Bright Fire Sword. The power of the two complementing secret techniques combined was greater than just using two different techniques.

Choosing Volcano Fist followed this line of thought.

Just like Tidal Fist, Volcano Fist was a tyrannical fist skill secret technique.

This way, Xu Ning would have the water-fire dual swords and the water-fire dual fists, which would allow him to use more diverse techniques against enemies.

Xu Ning easily learned the Water Shadow Aberration and the Volcano Fist.

Afterwards, he consumed 15,300 units of energy to advance his Water Shadow Aberration from level one to level nine.

Afterwards, he consumed the same amount of energy and raised his Volcano Fist to the ninth level.

'Attribute qi currents have been gathered!'

Xu Ning was ready.

'Advance!'

Xu Ning controlled the Martial Arts Panel with his consciousness.

Bang!

After consuming 25,000 units of energy, Xu Ning condensed his first attribute seed.

The condensation of the first attribute seed meant that Xu Ning was a half-step dao realm master!

Xu Ning did not stop here.

Second, third…

Soon, all six attribute seeds were condensed!

Xu Ning had become a half-step dao realm master with six attribute seeds.

This level of foundation was unmatched in the seventeen states of the Abyss North.

Unless one was a true dao realm master, no one could hurt Xu Ning at all.

It could be said that Xu Ning was the strongest person under the dao realm.

Xu Ning refreshed the Martial Arts Panel again.

Chapter 207: Meeting Gray Again, Assisting Refinement

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Xu Ning glanced at the Martial Arts Panel.

There were more than 20,000 units of energy left.

'Let's see how much energy is needed to advance to the dao realm…'

Xu Ning clicked on "" again.

Advancing to the dao realm was a one-time advancement, and the answer Xu Ning received was 300,000 units of energy.

'The amount is lower than expected…'

300,000 units of energy was not an unattainable number.

After all, he had just obtained 200,000 units of energy.

Now that the dao realm was right in front of him, Xu Ning was much more relaxed.

'To the Fog Night Abyss.'

Xu Ning walked out of the cave, found Little Gray, and let it carry him to the Fog Night Abyss.

The sun was scarce inside the Fog Night Abyss.

'It has been nearly a year since I last came here, and Gray still hasn't refined the Demon Beast Scroll successfully…'

Xu Ning had made an agreement with Gray that once the Demon Beast Scroll was successfully refined, Gray would take the initiative to find Xu Ning.

Since there was still no news after so long, it meant that Gray was still refining the Demon Beast Scroll.

'Last time, Xu Hujun told me that if I want to find them while Gray is refining the Demon Beast Scroll, I just have to reach this location and release my aura.'

Xu Ning sent Little Gray away and took the initiative to release his aura.

After a while, Xu Ning still did not receive a response.

"Why is there no feedback?"

Just when Xu Ning was puzzled, the space next to him suddenly distorted.

Xu Ning saw this and immediately entered the space.

"Senior Xu Hujun!"

After momentary weightlessness, Xu Ning appeared in the Demon Beast Scroll again.

Inside the Demon Beast Scroll, Xu Hujun was staring at Xu Ning with its huge body and stretched-out wings.

There was surprise and astonishment in its eyes.

"Xu Ning, you have advanced to a half-step dao realm master?"

Xu Hujun did not open its mouth, but Xu Ning heard a familiar voice being transmitted to his ears.

The last time Xu Hujun and Xu Ning talked, because they had to take care of Gray, they spoke through their mental consciousness, but this time, it was a voice transmission.

Sound transmission was not difficult for a human void realm martial artist to do, but it was not easy for a demon beast.

"That is right, I have condensed six attribute seeds."

Xu Ning answered truthfully.

"Six attribute seeds?"

Xu Hujun lowered its head and leaned close to Xu Ning.

In fact, after Xu Ning released his aura, Xu Hujun sensed it immediately, but he didn't dare to confirm Xu Ning's cultivation realm.

Although Xu Ning's aura was strong, Xu Hujun didn't expect him to be a half-step dao realm master.

Only after confirming repeatedly did it confirm Xu Ning's cultivation realm.

"Your cultivation speed is even faster than Shi Fengxu."

Xu Hujun sighed. "Moreover, Shi Fengxu had only condensed three attribute seeds, but you condensed six. You are even more powerful than Shi Fengxu from back then!"

Xu Hujun's voice transmission was simulated with bloodline power, so his emotions came across well.

"When you really advance to the dao realm master realm and go to State Wansheng, you might really encounter Shi Fengxu."

Xu Hujun revealed a look of nostalgia.

Although it had been nearly 300 years since Shi Fengxu left the seventeen states of the Abyss North, the lifespan of a dao realm master was far longer than this.

"Senior Xu Hujun, where is Gray?"

After chatting for a while, Xu Ning asked about Gray's situation. "Has Gray not refined this incomplete Demon Beast Scroll yet?"

"Not yet."

Xu Hujun shook his head. "Although we have reached the final step, Young Master has yet to achieve it."

"Is that so…"

Xu Ning frowned slightly.

"Xu Ning, did you return to the Demon Beast Scroll to visit Young Master?"

Xu Hujun asked.

"Not entirely."

Xu Ning said, "I came to remind you that some people in State Wansheng are targeting the Demon Beast Scroll, and they are currently on their way here."

"What!?"

Xu Hujun suddenly looked afraid. "Are you sure?"

"Of course."

Xu Ning told Xu Hujun about the people from State Wansheng.

After Xu Hujun heard this, a fierce look appeared in its huge eyes.

"It seems that the news of the beast tamer abandoning the Demon Beast Scroll in the seventeen states of the Abyss North has spread throughout State Wansheng…"

Xu Hujun said seriously, "That beast tamer is quite famous in State Wansheng. Even an abandoned Demon Beast Scroll is extremely attractive to ordinary dao realm masters."

"Senior Xu Hujun, can the current Demon Beast Scroll avoid the detection of a dao realm master?"

Xu Ning was worried about this. This directly concerned Gray's safety.

"It's hard."

The pattern on Xu Hujun's forehead was twisted together. "Currently, the Demon Beast Scroll cannot be hidden from a dao realm master. If a dao realm master approaches the Demon Beast Scroll, they will definitely notice something odd."

"Then what should we do?"

Xu Ning asked again.

"The only way to avoid the detection of a dao realm master is to completely refine the Demon Beast Scroll."

Xu Hujun said, "That is the only way to cover up the Demon Beast Scroll to a large degree."

"Is that the only way…"

Under these circumstances, Xu Ning was helpless.

"If what you said is true, then we can only ask Young Master to give up the Demon Beast Scroll…"

Xu Hujun sighed. "Although it is precious, it is not worth it to put Young Master in danger because of it."

"Alright, Xu Ning, I'll take you to see Young Master first."

Xu Hujun hesitated for a moment. It realized that the reality of the situation couldn't be changed, so it suggested going to meet Gray.

"Okay."

Xu Ning responded.

He hadn't seen Gray for a long time, so he missed it dearly.

Afterwards, Xu Ning sat on Xu Hujun's head. Xu Hujun flapped its wings and flew towards the inner core area of the Demon Beast Scroll.

"The ruins of the battlefield during the beast tide…"

Xu Hujun flew over the beast skeleton battlefield with Xu Ning. It was still desolate.

Xu Ning also saw the river on the battlefield. There was a high level void realm demon beast under the river. If it weren't for Mi Xingye's protection bead then, he would have died at the bottom of the river back then.

Soon, Xu Hujun brought Xu Ning to a round pit.

There were all kinds of demon beasts carved on the inner walls of the round pit.

In the middle of the round pit, there was a huge bead floating in the air.

The bead was bright and clean, with a diameter of more than 30 meters. There were distorted shadows inside, making it difficult to see clearly.

Below the bead, Gray sat on the ground like a human with its tail raised. Its two front claws were placed together, and its eyes were closed. Its expression was very serious.

As if sensing something, Gray suddenly opened its eyes. It turned its head and looked into the air, only to see Xu Hujun carrying Xu Ning and slowly landing in the deep pit.

Gray rubbed its eyes with its small claws, seemingly in disbelief.

"Gray!"

Xu Ning shouted.

When Gray heard Xu Ning's voice, it turned into a silver light and dove straight into Xu Ning's arms.

"Gray, you are already a high level void realm demon beast!"

Xu Ning felt Gray becoming stronger.

"I have helped Young Master refine the blood essence left by Master, allowing Young Master's bloodline to be further purified."

Xu Hujun explained.

"This is the core of the Demon Beast Scroll. The last step before refining it is to subdue the wills of the demon beasts in this giant bead."

Xu Hujun said, "When the beast tamer was refining the Demon Beast Scroll, he sealed part of the wills of three dao realm demon beasts in it, forming the foundation of the Demon Beast Scroll."

"Forcefully subduing the wills of the demon beasts is the simplest method, but the current Young Master is not strong enough to do that, and I am only in the half-step dao realm, so I can't really help Young Master."

Xu Hujun was obviously a little disappointed.

'Wills of dao realm demon beasts?'

Xu Ning suddenly thought of the cyan wolf apparition.

He hugged Gray and jumped lightly, standing on the top of the bead.

Xu Ning squatted down and placed his palm on the surface of the bead. He felt a cold sensation.

Xu Ning then poured his true qi into it.

The next moment, Xu Ning sensed the situation inside the bead.

The apparitions of an eagle, a bear, and a leopard darted around in the bead.

After sensing Xu Ning's unfamiliar aura, they all jumped out of the bead, baring their fangs and brandishing their claws, as if they wanted to swallow Xu Ning.

'The wills of these three demon beasts doesn't seem to be too strong…'

The pressure they gave off was far weaker than the domineering aura in the special dao weapons, the copper knife and the copper fan, that Xu Ning had.

With a flip of his hand, Xu Ning took out the copper knife.

After Xu Ning took out the copper knife, the will apparitions of the three demon beasts seemed to sense that something was wrong.

'They are afraid!'

Xu Ning noticed this.

Afterwards, Xu Ning poured his true qi into the bronze knife and communicated with the cyan wolf apparition inside.

Previously, Xu Ning had already figured out the method to communicate with the cyan wolf's will.

"Ha!"

Xu Ning shouted softly and summoned the cyan wolf like how Gu Juan and Zhang Tong did.

The cyan wolf apparition condensed into a head and appeared behind Xu Ning, its tail connecting with Xu Ning's body.

'Sure enough, it is consuming my true qi, blood qi, and attribute power…'

Xu Ning felt his strength rapidly increasing. This sudden external boost made him feel surreal.

After obtaining the copper knife and copper fan, Xu Ning didn't intend to use them to activate the cyan wolf apparition.

All because Xu Ning was afraid of the terrifying demon beast will.

However, Xu Ning decided to try it once to help Gray.

'What did Xu Ning do? Why did he get so strong?'

Xu Hujun was stunned.

Gray jumped out of Xu Ning's arms and squatted on the side, trembling.

The will apparitions of the three demon beasts in front of Xu Ning became motionless after sensing the aura of the cyan wolf apparition.

Their originally violent auras were completely restrained.

"Young Master!"

Sensing this, Xu Hujun quickly realized Xu Ning's intentions. "Quick, take this opportunity to subdue the wills of the demon beasts!"

"Gray, hurry!"

Xu Ning urged.

Xu Ning felt like he was about to lose control after activating the cyan wolf apparition for the first time.

Gray quickly reacted and activated the bloodline power in its body.

Report chapter

Chapter 208: Refining the Demon Beast Scroll

A unique silver mark appeared on Gray's forehead.

It activated the bloodline power in its body, which exerted pressure on the will apparitions of the three demon beasts.

When Gray tried to subdue these will apparitions previously, it felt a huge resistance.

But this time, it was extremely smooth.

Almost without any resistance, Gray completely suppressed the will apparitions of the three demon beasts.

"Success!"

Xu Hujun looked relieved.

Xu Ning also felt relieved and immediately cut off his connection with the cyan wolf.

His face was pale and his aura was a little weak.

He quickly took out a healing pill and swallowed it.

At the same time, Xu Ning felt the giant bead below him tremble violently.

Xu Ning quickly jumped down.

As for Gray, it floated in the air. The will apparitions of the three demon beasts first made a submissive gesture to Gray before diving into the giant bead again.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The giant bead shrank rapidly, becoming the size of a pigeon egg.

The space in the Demon Beast Scroll then began to tremble.

"Xu Ning, be careful!"

Xu Hujun saw that after Xu Ning summoned the cyan wolf apparition, his aura had greatly weakened, so he quickly protected him.

Bang!

Afterwards, Xu Ning felt a huge force pushing him.

Soon, he and Xu Hujun were thrown out of the Demon Beast Scroll.

"Gray!"

Xu Ning was a little anxious.

"Don't worry, Young Master is taking control of the Demon Beast Scroll, there is no danger!"

Xu Hujun quickly said.

In just a few seconds, Gray appeared in the outside world as well.

The round bead the size of a pigeon egg floated in front of Gray's forehead.

"The Demon Beast Scroll has been completely refined!"

Xu Hujun said, "Xu Ning, thank you. If it weren't for your methods just now, Young Master wouldn't have been able to subdue the will apparitions of those three demon beasts."

Gray picked up the bead with its two front claws and went to Xu Ning.

It handed the bead to Xu Ning.

"For me to take a look?"

Xu Ning understood Gray's intentions.

Gray was unable to mimic human voices like Xu Hujun, so it couldn't communicate with him directly.

Xu Ning held the round bead in his hand and placed it in front of his eyes.

"Is this the Demon Beast Scroll…"

Xu Ning saw a small but amazing painting in the round bead.

Forests, mountains, rivers, demon beasts…

The space inside the Demon Beast Scroll had been completely transported into the round bead.

"Although this Demon Beast Scroll is damaged, its value is still very high."

Xu Hujun was a little excited.

"What is the specific power of this Demon Beast Scroll?"

Xu Ning asked.

"The Demon Beast Scroll can raise demon beasts. And any demon beast that is placed in the Demon Beast Scroll can be controlled."

Xu Hujun said, "Although the number of demon beasts in the Demon Beast Scroll has decreased, if we release all of them, we can still create a beast tide that will engulf half the state."

'Mass attack weapon…'

Xu Ning nodded silently.

"Moreover, this Demon Beast Scroll can also be used as a hiding place."

Xu Hujun continued, "If you encounter a strong enemy, you can enter the Demon Beast Scroll to hide. The Demon Beast Scroll can even isolate its aura, and at critical moments, it can save lives. It can even be used as a surprise attack."

"Good stuff."

Xu Ning felt that the life-saving aspects of the Demon Beast Scroll was more precious.

"Put it away, Gray."

Xu Ning returned the Demon Beast Scroll to Gray.

Gray opened its mouth, bit the bead, and swallowed it.

Gray was a void beast. Therefore, it also had an independent space in its body, similar to a storage space.

Although living creatures could not enter it, the independent space was much larger than the space in a storage ring.

"By the way, Xu Ning."

Xu Hujun asked, "How did you summon the will of that dao realm demon beast just now?"

'The will apparition of a dao realm demon beast…'

This was similar to Xu Ning's previous guess. The cyan wolf apparition had an extraordinary background.

"Through these two dao weapons."

Xu Ning took out the copper knife and the copper fan.

Xu Ning did not need to hide any secrets from Xu Hujun and Gray.

"I just obtained these two dao weapons, and they are extremely strange. A portion of the will apparition of the cyan wolf is sealed in each dao weapon. As long as I activate it, the will apparition can come out, using my true qi, blood qi, and attribute power as nutrients. And as long as I can constantly provide it with nutrients, I can borrow its power."

Xu Ning said, "However, if I don't control my strength well, I might be sucked dry by the cyan wolf's will apparition."

"Hiss…"

This was the first time Xu Hujun had heard of such a dao weapon. "How strange…"

"If I'm not wrong, these two dao weapons should come from State Wansheng."

Xu Hujun said.

"Maybe…"

Xu Hujun had the same idea as Xu Ning.

However, Xu Ning could not find out about their origins from Gu Juan and Zhang Tong.

"Senior Xu Hujun, now that the Demon Beast Scroll has been refined, where are you going with Gray?"

Xu Ning asked.

"I plan to take Young Master back to the land of our race and stay there for a few days. There are still some remaining items left by our race there, and I have to help Young Master retrieve them. After that, we will go to the Yuelan Sect to find you."

Xu Hujun said, "If what you said is true, when the people from State Wansheng arrive, the seventeen states of the Abyss North will be in chaos. In such chaos, we should be close to one another so we can help each other."

"Okay."

Xu Ning agreed with Xu Hujun.

Now that the Demon Beast Scroll had been refined, there was no risk of it being exposed.

When the time came, Xu Hujun and Gray would hide in the Demon Beast Scroll, and he could carry them with him. If they encountered any trouble, they could face it together.

"In this case, farewell."

Xu Hujun was decisive.

Gray let out a howl and pressed its forehead against Xu Ning's body.

It knew that they would not be apart for long, so it was not too depressed.

Gray then climbed onto Xu Hujun's head.

Xu Hujun spread its wings and turned into a stream of light, disappearing from Xu Ning's vision.

"Okay, Little Gray, you can come out now."

After Xu Hujun left with Gray, Xu Ning looked at the rocks in the distance and shouted.

Then, he saw Little Gray timidly sticking its head out, flapping its wings and flying in front of Xu Ning.

After being ejected from the Demon Beast Scroll, Xu Ning sensed that Little Gray was nearby.

However, after sensing the bloodline pressure from Xu Hujun and Gray, Little Gray didn't dare to move.

As a demon beast, the suppression between bloodlines was terrifying.

"You don't have to do this next time, Xu Hujun and Gray are our partners."

Xu Ning patted Little Gray's head. "The next time we meet, you can get closer to them."

Little Gray let out a soft cry.

"When I return to the sect, I will specially refine a batch of medicinal pills for demon beasts to cleanse your bloodline and increase your advancement limit."

Xu Ning said.

After hearing this, Little Gray cheered and flew back to the Yuelan Sect.

A few days later.

Inside the Yuelan Sect.

Over the past few days, the disappearance of Elder Gu Juan attracted the attention of the sect.

Sect Master Mi Xingye personally investigated this matter.

On this day, Xu Ning was called to the Sect Master Peak by Mi Xingye alone.

"Xu Ning, did you kill Elder Gu Juan?"

After making the arrangements, Mi Xingye went straight to the point.

When Xu Ning saw Mi Xingye's serious expression, he realized that Mi Xingye must have found some clues.

Xu Ning weighed his options and finally decided to tell the truth.

His current strength could be said to be invincible below the dao realm. Even if Mi Xingye wanted to clean up the mess, he had the strength to escape.

"I didn't kill him."

Xu Ning said, "In order to kill me, Elder Gu Juan used a trump card that consumed his own strength, and he died from over-exhaustion."

Xu Ning was speaking the truth, so he was confident.

When Mi Xingye heard this, he frowned and stared into Xu Ning's eyes, as if he wanted to confirm if Xu Ning was lying.

"Are you speaking the truth?"

Mi Xingye's eyes were sharp.

"Every word is true."

Xu Ning did not back down.

"Then why did Elder Gu Juan wish to kill you?"

Mi Xingye asked again.

"Firstly, it is for revenge, secondly, it is to vent his anger."

Xu Ning explained, "He suspected that I killed Fang Jie so he wanted to take revenge. He also wanted to vent his anger because he was jealous that you took in two good disciples."

After hearing this, Mi Xingye did not seem surprised. After hearing the latter half of the sentence, the corner of his mouth even moved slightly.

"So, did you kill Fang Jie?"

Mi Xingye's tone was still cold.

"I killed him, but I killed him in self defence. Fang Jie was the one that wanted to kill me first."

Before Mi Xingye could speak, Xu Ning said, "Master, you know that I am from State Feiyun, but do you know how I came to State Jifeng?"

"How?"

Mi Xingye frowned.

"I was abducted."

Xu Ning finally had enough strength, so he didn't plan to hide the truth.

He explained that he had experienced a life-and-death crisis, escaped from the Bao family, and was targeted by Fang Jie after taking his revenge on them. Elder Gu Juan who suspected him then tried to assassinate him.

Except for some key details, Xu Ning told the truth.

"I didn't expect this…"

This time, Mi Xingye's expression finally changed.

After hearing this, he fell silent.

Xu Ning stood aside and waited for Mi Xingye's response.

After a long time, Mi Xingye looked up and glanced at Xu Ning. "Elder Gu Juan sent a confidant to the Bao family and State Feiyun to investigate, that's why he suspected you."

"And I have already dealt with Gu Juan's trusted subordinate."

Mi Xingye's words surprised Xu Ning.

This meant that Mi Xingye had already gotten rid of trouble for him before he even interrogated him.

"Master…"

Xu Ning was a little moved.

"Don't misunderstand, I am the master of the sect. His trusted deacon has done many things that violate the sect rules, but he was protected by Gu Juan all this time. I only dealt with him just to maintain the sect rules."

Mi Xingye waved his hand with a serious expression.

"Sect Master is fair and impartial, I admire you."

Xu Ning cupped his fists.

"Xu Ning, I was really worried that you killed Gu Juan. Fortunately, you only retaliated in self defence. Otherwise, I would have to expel you from the sect."

Mi Xingye looked at Xu Ning and suddenly sighed.

His eyes were full of concern for his disciple.

Chapter 209: Travelers from State Wansheng, Distribution

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Although there was a feud between Gu Juan and Mi Xingye, he couldn't ignore the fact that his disciple had killed a sect elder.

If Xu Ning killed Gu Juan out of ill intent, Mi Xingye would definitely punish him.

But since Gu Juan wanted to kill him first, Mi Xingye would not pursue the matter. In order to protect Xu Ning, he had already found a way to reduce the impact of the matter.

"This matter is over."

After learning about Xu Ning's previous experience, Mi Xingye could also feel Xu Ning's passiveness.

"Xu Ning, now that you have condensed your attribute seeds, it is inevitable that you will advance to the dao realm in the future."

Mi Xingye said, "So, you have to protect yourself."

Mi Xingye was also glad. If Gu Juan really succeeded, then it would be a real shame for a genius like Xu Ning to die.

"I know, Master."

Xu Ning responded.

When he returned to the sect a few days ago, Mi Xingye had already discovered that he had condensed his dao realm attribute seeds.

However, Xu Ning did not say that he had condensed six attribute seeds, he only said that he had condensed two for now.

Otherwise, his improvement speed would truly be ridiculous.

"Okay, go back. Don't let anyone else know about our conversation today."

Mi Xingye said, "Also, be ready at any time to wait for the sect's orders. According to the Source Sect's news, in the next few days, the people from State Wansheng will arrive in the seventeen states of the Abyss North."

"Understood."

Xu Ning responded.

State Chungu

On the shore of the Endless Sea Abyss.

This was the place where people outside the Endless Sea Abyss had to pass to reach the seventeen states.

In the distance, the Endless Sea Abyss was tinged with black and blue hues. Strong winds swept across, waves surged, clouds covered the sky, and lightning flashed.

Only a ship was sailing from afar.

Outside the ship, there was a transparent membrane that blocked the fierce waves and the demon beasts below the sea.

"I see land!"

Someone stood at the bow of the ship. Looking at his clothes, he should be a sect disciple.

"We're finally arrived in the seventeen states!"

The other disciples were also excited.

Crossing the Endless Sea Abyss from State Wansheng, they had experienced countless dangers.

There were several dao realm masters on this ship. In addition to them, there were more than a hundred high level void realm martial artists who came with them.

If it weren't for the protection of the dao realm masters on the ship, they wouldn't have been able to cross the Endless Sea Abyss alive.

"Quick, tell the Sect Master and elders about this!"

A disciple said.

"No need!"

Several figures walked out of the cabin.

The leader was wearing a green robe, possessing sharp eyebrows and starry eyes. He was tall and straight.

He looked to be less than 30 years old, but he gave off a feeling that he had gone through hundreds of years of life.

Behind him, there were five people wearing the same robe as him, but those people's robes were white.

The people behind him in white robes all had young faces, but their eyes had traces of age.

The reason for this contrast was that these people were all true dao realm masters.

After advancing to the dao realm, they could return to their youth and maintain their appearance forever.

"We're finally in the seventeen states of the Abyss North…"

The green-robed man looked at the shore in the distance and smiled.

Although he was strong enough to protect a ship full of people, he had experienced several crises along the way.

"Sect Master!"

A white-robed elder walked up behind him. "We are about to go ashore, so the Source Sect people behind us should be catching up soon."

"I know, but don't worry."

The green-robed man said, "No one they sent is my opponent. Don't worry."

"But I'm afraid that those people from the Source Sect already know the purpose of our trip. They will compete with us in the search for Old Man Wan Ye and the Demon Beast Scroll."

The white-robed elder said worriedly, "After all, the Source Sect is also established in the seventeen states of the Abyss North. Although it is only a sect supported by void realm martial artists, it has a deep foundation. If they compete with us, we might really be at a disadvantage."

The green-robed man looked serious when he heard this.

"You have a point."

The green-robed man waved his sleeves. "After we get ashore, we will act separately. There are six dao realm masters and hundreds of high level void realm martial artists. No one in these barren seventeen states of the Abyss North can stop this kind of power."

"As long as we spread out and control the key sects of each state, it will be easy to control the seventeen states."

The green-robed man's tone was full of confidence in his strength.

Afterwards, he and the elders behind him began to plan.

Bang!

Not long after, the ship came ashore.

The people on the ship felt extremely secure as they walked on the solid ground.

'Huh?'

All the disciples were excited, but the Sect Master and the five elders had solemn expressions.

"Is this why there are no dao realm masters in the seventeen states of the Abyss North?"

The few dao realm masters felt the extremely thin spiritual energy in the atmosphere of the seventeen states of the Abyss North.

This level of spiritual energy made them feel uncomfortable. It was like ordinary people coming from the plains to the highlands.

"In this kind of place, not to mention advancing, it is difficult to even replenish qi after a battle."

An elder began to complain.

The green-robed sect master frowned. His realm was higher, so he could feel it more clearly.

He even felt that even if he didn't move, he would still consume spiritual energy.

"Alright, don't worry about this."

The green-robed man said, "It doesn't take much effort to deal with the people here. Even if the Source Sect of State Wansheng comes, they will be in the same predicament as us."

"Moreover, it's not like we didn't foresee this situation. We brought a lot of supplementary pills with us just to deal with this situation…"

The green-robed man assured them.

"Now that we have come ashore, disciples, you have received the map of the seventeen states of the Abyss North. Now go and carry out the missions assigned to you!"

The green-robed man said, "If anyone can find clues about Old Man Wan Ye or the Demon Beast Scroll, I will definitely reward them heavily!"

"Yes!"

The disciples were excited.

These disciples were all from State Wansheng and had never travelled anywhere else.

As high level void realm martial artists, although they were not weak, they could only hide and be humble in a place like State Wansheng.

But now, after coming to the seventeen states of the Abyss North, they were now considered experts, and they all wanted to be arrogant for once.

The green-robed man smiled faintly at the sight of the energetic disciples, and his eyes were also burning with ambition.

'After finding Old Man Wan Ye and obtaining the sect token on him, we will become a true sect recognized by the Imperial Court! After that, we will obtain the Demon Beast Scroll, raise countless demon beasts, and trade with other sects to improve our foundation. At that time, we will also have a place in State Wansheng!'

State Jifeng.

Yuelan Sect.

Xu Ning and He Mingye were summoned to the assembly hall at the same time.

There were many people sitting in the assembly hall.

Other than Xu Ning and He Mingye, the others were either current elders or former elders.

Not all of the previous generation of elders were super powerhouses, some of them were only in the common seal realm, but they were also gathered here.

Mi Xingye, Qiu Renshan, and Du Yuan, the two previous generation elders, sat in the seats.

"The reason I gathered everyone here today is to tell everyone that the people from State Wansheng have arrived in the seventeen states of the Abyss North."

Elder Qiu Renshan was the one hosting the meeting.

The crowd was in an uproar.

Although this was expected, everyone was still a little afraid when the day actually came.

"It is said that there are several dao realm masters and more than a hundred high level void realm martial artists. They first set up their camp in State Chungu, and then they began to spread everywhere. Now, they have been scattered everywhere and are trying to control many sects. Because of this, several states have already been controlled by them. Their people will soon flow to the south and infiltrate State Jifeng."

Elder Qiushan said, "In order to ensure the stability of State Jifeng, we will assign tasks to everyone today. Some will stay in the sect, while some will have to guard other sects with weaker foundations. It is not just us that is doing this, but the Thousand Flood Sect will also do the same. We have reached a consensus."

"After those people infiltrate State Jifeng, if they are friendly, we can negotiate. But if they are domineering, we have to use force to fight back. No one needs to worry about this."

"The Source Sect has already sent news that their sect in State Wansheng will also send people over. Moreover, if the other party really attacks us with force, many of our old bones here can also forcibly break through to the dao realm and fight them."

Qiu Renshan first explained the contents of the meeting, then cheered everyone up.

Although the threat was imminent, the three states were already prepared.

'They are already here…'

After Xu Ning heard this, his expression was a little serious.

He was cautious when facing unknown visitors.

'There is still no news about Xu Hujun and Gray…'

They had not yet returned from the void beast homeland.

'If they are not here before I have to leave, then I can only leave a message for them to find me.'

Xu Ning wondered where he would be assigned to.

"Next, I will assign guards to the various sects."

Qiu Renshan continued, "These allocations were discussed by me, Sect Master, Elder Du Yuan, Elder Duan Qinghui, and others. If you have any objections, you can raise your opinions at any time."

Afterwards, Qiu Renshan began to distribute.

"Sect Master Mi Xingye will be overseeing the sect."

"Elder Yuan Cheng will be stationed at the sect."

"…"

Qiu Renshan said one by one.

"Disciple Xu Ning will be stationed at the Moon Gazing Sect."

Report chapter

Chapter 210: Giving A Dao Weapon, He Mingye's Emotions

'Moon Gazing Sect?'

After hearing where he was stationed, Xu Ning was obviously surprised.

Although the Moon Gazing Sect was not comparable to the Yuelan Sect and the Thousand Flood Sect in State Jifeng, it was still a first-rate sect.

There must be a half-step dao realm master in the Moon Gazing Sect. With a half-step dao realm master, their overall foundation must be quite good, so why did they send him to guard it?

However, although Xu Ning was puzzled, he did not raise any questions. It was not too late to ask after the distribution was over.

Afterwards, Qiu Renshan settled the others' arrangements.

Like Xu Ning, He Mingye was also sent to other sects.

However, the sect He Mingye was assigned to was a relatively weak one.

"Everyone, everything has been properly arranged."

Qiu Renshan said, "If there are no questions, then all the personnels that are being sent out will leave within three days. And the people stationed at the sect must immediately begin to mobilize their disciples to inform them of the overall situation and make preparations."

Afterwards, Sect Master Mi Xingye also said something to encourage and thank them.

No one objected to Qiu Renshan's arrangement.

After the meeting ended, everyone left with a lot on their minds.

"Mingye, Xu Ning, you two stay behind."

After everyone dispersed, Qiu Renshan stopped He Mingye and Xu Ning.

In the assembly hall, besides him, Mi Xingye, Du Yuan, and Duan Qinghui were also present.

"Master, elders."

He Mingye and Xu Ning stayed behind.

Among these people, Duan Qinghui was the most unfamiliar to Xu Ning.

"You should have also noticed that the people gathered today are all martial artists above the common seal realm."

Qiu Renshan said, "These people are the core strength of the Yuelan Sect."

"Although the two of you are disciples, your true strength has already surpassed many of the people present just now."

Du Yuan smiled and said, "Originally, I wanted to let you stay in the sect, as it is safer. But your master, Sect Master Mi, decided to let you go outside and play the greatest role."

"You two don't have any objections, right?"

Mi Xingye looked at the two disciples with a satisfied look in his eyes.

There were only two disciples above the common seal realm in the Yuelan Sect, and they were Xu Ning and He Mingye.

Moreover, not only were they in the true domain realm and the half-step dao realm, but they were also his disciples. This made Mi Xingye very proud.

Although Mi Xingye was a little worried about sending the two out, after thinking about it, he still made this decision.

Firstly, they were strong enough. If they forced the two of them to stay by their side, the masses would be dissatisfied. Not only would they question the Sect Master's selfishness, but they would also lose their reputation.

Secondly, Mi Xingye deliberately wanted the two of them to make a name for themselves in the upcoming tribulation.

Only in this way, when the sect was handed over to the two of them in the future, would they be able to gather people's hearts more easily.

Of course, this idea was mainly beneficial to He Mingye, because he would definitely inherit the position of sect master in the future.

As for Xu Ning, in Mi Xingye's opinion, there was a high probability that he would not be appointed as an elder. With his qualifications, it was more likely that he would break through to the dao realm in a few years and go to State Wansheng.

"Of course not."

He Mingye and Xu Ning quickly said.

Although they didn't really understand Mi Xingye's thoughts, the two knew that he must have thought deeply about them.

"However, I have a question."

Xu Ning asked, "The Moon Gazing Sect is a large sect, but why do I have to guard it?"

"Something happened to the Moon Gazing Sect recently."

Mi Xingye took the initiative to explain to Xu Ning, "The two half-step dao realm masters in their sect were seriously injured recently, thus no one could currently oversee the sect and stabilize their hearts. Thus, they had no choice but to ask us for help."

"The Moon Gazing Sect knows very well that if there are no strong martial artists holding the fort, with the size of their sect, they will definitely be targeted by the people of State Wansheng and be turned into puppets. If they are turned into puppets, then it will have a huge negative impact on State Jifeng."

Xu Ning nodded deeply.

Xu Ning did not feel too pressured about this mission.

Unless a dao realm master from State Wansheng personally put pressure on him, it was not difficult to preserve his life with his own strength.

"Oh yeah."

Mi Xingye said, "You are not the only one sent to guard the Moon Gazing Sect. There is another person being sent there, and she should be your old friend."

"My old friend?"

Xu Ning raised his eyebrows. He didn't seem to have any old friends in State Jifeng.

"Thousand Flood Sect's true disciple, Si Ying."

Mi Xingye said, "Si Ying has a special status in the Thousand Flood Sect. It is good for both of us to maintain a good relationship."

"Si Ying?"

Xu Ning nodded.

In fact, the two of them had only met once, but he had saved her life.

However, the news of Feng Changge's death was spread by Si Ying, so the outside world, including Mi Xingye, thought that Xu Ning and Si Ying had a deep relationship.

"We will support each other."

Xu Ning responded.

"The situation is delicate right now. No one knows what will happen next. You two are outstanding disciples of our sect. When protecting others, it is more important to protect yourselves."

This time, it was Duan Qinghui who spoke.

When He Mingye and Xu Ning heard this, they were stunned at first, then they said, "Yes, Elder Duan."

Xu Ning also learned over the past few days that Duan Qinghui was a strong supporter of Gu Juan.

Thus, this reminder was rather unexpected.

"Okay, go back and prepare. Remember to come to the Sect Master Peak when you are ready to leave the sect."

Mi Xingye waved his hand.

"I will take my leave."

Xu Ning and He Mingye left the assembly hall at the same time.

"Junior Brother, be careful outside."

He Mingye said earnestly like an older generation nagging at a younger generation.

Although Xu Ning was stronger than him, He Mingye still spoke with concern.

"Same for Senior Brother."

Xu Ning thought for a moment before pulling He Mingye into a corner.

"Senior Brother, I have something to give you."

Xu Ning said to He Mingye.

"What is it?"

He Mingye was a little confused.

A red sword appeared in Xu Ning's hand as he moved his consciousness.

This fire attribute dao weapon was one of the three dao weapons Xu Ning had obtained from Shi Fengxu in the Demon Beast Scroll's mystic realm.

"This is…"

The moment the longsword was taken out, He Mingye noticed its extraordinariness.

He Mingye wiped the surface of the dao weapon with his finger, and his expression changed instantly.

"This is a dao weapon, a fire attribute dao weapon!"

He Mingye immediately guessed.

"That's right."

Xu Ning nodded. "Senior Brother, please accept this fire attribute dao weapon."

Xu Ning had already thought about giving He Mingye a dao weapon.

There were a total of seven dao weapons in Xu Ning's hands, and this was not including the dao weapon shortsword he gave to Chu Yeyang.

Three of these seven items were obtained from Shi Fengxu's inheritance. In addition, there were also the all attribute dao bracer, dao weapon pill furnace, and the two special dao weapons he had just obtained.

When Xu Ning first obtained them, he thought of exchanging two to three dao weapons he did not use for more resources.

It was just that his strength was shallow. If he revealed too many good things, he would be exposed to danger.

Now that his strength had improved, Xu Ning was ready to deal with the dao weapons he had obtained from Shi Fengxu's inheritance.

One of them would be given to He Mingye, while the other two would be exchanged for more resources.

As for the bracer, pill furnace, and the special copper knife and fan, Xu Ning decided to keep them for himself.

"How can I accept it?"

He Mingye was actually tempted by this fire attribute dao weapon, but he still refused.

"A precious item like a dao weapon is very rare. As a senior brother, how can I accept your gift?"

He Mingye pushed Xu Ning's hand away. "Moreover, you are also stationed outside, so you will definitely be in danger. This dao weapon is very useful to you."

"Senior Brother…"

Xu Ning smiled. "Since I gave you a dao weapon, it means that I definitely don't lack one. In addition to this fire attribute dao weapon, I have other dao weapons."

"No."

He Mingye said, "You can use it to exchange for other resources."

If he had enough resources, He Mingye might ask to trade for this sword with his resources.

But for a young powerhouse like him, there was no such thing as a reserve of resources.

He had long used up all his valuable resources in his cultivation.

Only old seniors like Mi Xingye and Gu Juan could save up a lot of resources over the years.

Xu Ning saw He Mingye's stubbornness.

He patiently said, "Senior Brother, no matter what, you have to accept this dao weapon."

"Although you are in the true domain realm, you are still not enough in front of the people from State Wansheng."

Xu Ning noticed that He Mingye was still stubborn. He paused then said, "In this case, I will lend you this fire attribute dao weapon, okay?"

"Lend it to me?"

He Mingye raised his eyebrows.

"If you refuse again, I'm afraid you really don't see me as your junior brother. Do you really think of me as an in-name disciple who is not worthy to call you senior brother?"

Xu Ning jokingly said.

"You…"

He Mingye understood Xu Ning's intentions.

"Okay, I'll borrow this dao weapon from you."

He Mingye finally chose to accept Xu Ning's request. "When the people from State Wansheng leave, I will return it to you."

"Okay."

Xu Ning put the fire attribute dao weapon in He Mingye's hand.

He had already erased the manipulation mark inside, so He Mingye could immediately use it.

After giving each other some show of concern, Xu Ning left the entrance of the assembly hall.

He Mingye looked at the fire attribute dao weapon in his hand and sighed.

Whether it was a gift or a loan, He Mingye could feel Xu Ning's sincerity by passing him such a precious dao weapon.

'With this fire attribute dao weapon, I won't be afraid of a half-step dao realm master.'

He Mingye remembered Xu Ning's gesture.

Chapter 211: The Cyan Wolf of the Moon Gazing Sect

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Three days later.

Outside the Yuelan Sect.

Gray was currently lying on Xu Ning's shoulder.

Just when Xu Ning thought Gray and Xu Hujun would not be able to come in time, they arrived outside the Yuelan Sect yesterday and secretly informed Xu Ning.

After leaving the sect today, Gray came over immediately.

At this moment, Xu Hujun was hiding in the Demon Beast Scroll.

"Brother, where are we going?"

Gray leaned against Xu Ning. Its mouth did not move, but its voice reached Xu Ning's ears.

After Gray returned from the void beast homeland, its strength had greatly improved, and it was now very close to the half-step dao realm.

Xu Ning was amazed by the bloodline of void beasts.

Among demon beasts, the higher the quality of the bloodline, the higher the upper limit of talent, and the faster the advancement speed.

Unless one underwent some deliberate intervention to change one's bloodline purity, the upper limit of one's talent could not be changed.

"To the Moon Gazing Sect, a human sect."

Xu Ning responded, "I will be stationed there for a while."

Xu Ning found it quite interesting to talk to Gray.

Although they were not talking directly, it was definitely more convenient to communicate.

When Gray advanced to the dao realm, it could directly speak to him then.

Afterwards, Xu Ning summoned Little Gray.

After Little Gray approached, it noticed Gray on Xu Ning's shoulder. Seeing Gray, it couldn't help but shiver.

"Little Gray, don't worry, Gray is my close friend."

Xu Ning comforted Little Gray, then got on its back and directed Little Gray to fly towards the Moon Gazing Sect.

During this process, Little Gray was very cautious.

Little Gray, a void realm demon beast with an ordinary bloodline, was not worthy of Gray's attention.

With Gray's current strength, a demon beast like Little Gray was only its food.

But for Xu Ning's sake, Gray accepted Little Gray.

It jumped off Xu Ning's shoulder, patted Little Gray's head, and curled up.

This kind gesture made Little Gray relax a lot.

The Moon Gazing Sect was not far from the Yuelan Sect. In less than half a day, Little Gray arrived with Xu Ning.

When they arrived at the gate of the Moon Gazing Sect, Xu Ning motioned for Little Gray to land.

Since this was his first time in their territory, it was better to walk through the front door.

"Who are you?"

A disciple looked at Xu Ning cautiously.

"Xu Ning from the Yuelan Sect."

Xu Ning took out his waist plate to prove his identity.

"So it's Senior Brother Xu Ning from the Yuelan Sect!"

After the disciples guarding the door heard Xu Ning's name, their eyes lit up with admiration.

The news of Xu Ning killing Feng Changge had spread throughout State Jifeng.

Many people only heard of him, but never met him before.

Thus, these disciples were excited to see Xu Ning today.

They all knew that the situation in State Jifeng would be more complicated very soon. So with a famous expert like Xu Ning here, they were naturally relieved.

"Senior Brother Xu Ning, please!"

The guard enthusiastically led the way. "Senior Sister Si Ying from the Thousand Flood Sect just arrived at the Moon Gazing Sect yesterday."

"Si Ying is already here…"

Afterwards, Xu Ning was welcomed by the guard.

Little Gray was also invited to the Moon Gazing Sect as Xu Ning's demon beast mount.

This was the first time Little Gray had experienced this kind of treatment. It folded its wings, stepped on the ground with its claws, and puffed up its chest, looking very excited.

Gray showed a look of contempt when he saw this.

Not long after entering the Moon Gazing Sect, a man and a woman personally came to welcome Xu Ning.

The woman was wearing a white dress and was dressed in a heroic manner, but it couldn't hide the natural charm in her eyes. She was Si Ying.

Beside Si Ying was a middle-aged man who looked very elegant.

After Xu Ning thought about his identity, he was basically certain that this person was Moon Gazing Sect's Sect Master, Yuan Yuan.

"Disciple-Nephew Xu Ning, I am Moon Gazing Sect's Sect Master, Yuan Yuan."

Sure enough, Xu Ning guessed right. Yuan Yuan took the initiative to introduce himself to Xu Ning.

"Xu Ning, long time no see."

After Si Ying saw Xu Ning, she smiled.

"Greetings, Sect Master Yuan and Senior Sister Si."

Xu Ning returned the gesture.

"Junior Brother Xu Ning, you seem to be improving?"

Si Ying noticed Xu Ning's change.

The last time she saw Xu Ning, Xu Ning was still in the true intent realm.

"Yes, I have just condensed my attribute seeds a few days ago."

Xu Ning responded truthfully.

"Condensed attribute seeds?"

"Half-step dao realm master?"

Si Ying and Yuan Yuan both looked surprised.

Especially Si Ying, who looked at Xu Ning strangely.

"When you killed Feng Changge a few months ago, weren't you in the true intent realm?"

Si Ying asked.

Hearing this, Yuan Yuan's expression changed again.

When Xu Ning killed Feng Changge, he was only in the true intent realm?

Moreover, in a few months, he directly leaped from the true intent realm to condensing attribute seeds?

"This…"

Yuan Yuan's expression towards Xu Ning changed completely.

He was the Sect Master of the Moon Gazing Sect. Although he called Xu Ning his disciple-nephew, his attitude was closer to an equal.

But now that he saw Xu Ning's strength and aptitude, he subconsciously lowered his status.

"That's right, but in the past few months, I was lucky to encounter some opportunities and managed to advance quickly."

Xu Ning smiled.

"Both disciples are indeed from the top sects in State Jifeng. Your qualifications and strength are far beyond ordinary people."

Yuan Yuan sighed. This was not a compliment out of courtesy, but a sincere compliment.

While talking, Yuan Yuan and Si Ying brought Xu Ning to the guest hall of the Moon Gazing Sect.

Afterwards, a disciple served spirit medicine tea.

"Sect Master Yuan, I heard that two half-step dao realm masters of the Moon Gazing Sect were seriously injured. How did that happen?"

As soon as he sat down, Xu Ning asked.

This was what Mi Xingye had told Xu Ning.

"Speaking of this…"

Yuan Yuan showed a troubled expression. "Two hidden elders of our sect were injured by a demon beast."

"Hurt by a demon beast?"

Xu Ning's eyebrows moved. "What demon beast is it?"

A demon beast that could seriously injure two half-step dao realm masters must be in the same realm.

"It's a cyan wolf demon beast that came out of nowhere."

Before Yuan Yuan could finish speaking, Xu Ning's heart stirred when he heard the name cyan wolf demon beast. Gray, who was curled up next to him, suddenly perked up its ears and turned its head too.

Gray's abnormal behavior attracted the attention of Yuan Yuan and Si Ying, but they didn't say anything after looking at Gray.

They could not recognize Gray's identity as a void beast.

"Cyan wolf demon beast…"

Xu Ning instantly thought of the will apparition in the copper knife and the copper fan.

"How were they injured?"

Xu Ning asked again.

Although there was no proof that the two were related, Xu Ning began to think.

Facing Xu Ning's question, Yuan Yuan told him everything he had told Si Ying before.

"It was a month ago. Two hidden elders in the Moon Gazing Sect who had been in seclusion for a long time came out of seclusion. Because the Paramount Fruit in the forbidden area of the sect had ripened, they planned to go pick it."

"Paramount Fruit?"

As a top alchemist, Xu Ning naturally knew about the Paramount Fruit.

This Paramount Fruit was a top-notch spirit herb that could help a cultivator condense an attribute seed. It did not need to be used as a medicinal ingredient, as it could be consumed directly.

It was just that the Paramount Fruit was extremely rare and had a long maturity period. It was usually difficult to obtain. Even Xu Ning had never seen it before.

He didn't expect the Moon Gazing Sect to have an Paramount Fruit Tree.

"That's right."

Yuan Yuan continued, "The Paramount Fruit ripens on the night of the full moon. At that time, the two elders were waiting to pick it."

"However, just when the two fruits on the tree had completely ripened and were about to be picked, a cyan wolf appeared in the restricted area of the sect. It suddenly appeared at lightning speed. And before the two elders could react, it swallowed one and took the other one."

"When the two elders saw this, they were anxious and quickly chased after the cyan wolf. In the end, they couldn't catch up to the cyan wolf at all. However, just when they were about to give up, the cyan wolf took the initiative to return."

"Took the initiative to return?"

Xu Ning listened attentively.

"Yes, it took the initiative to return and face the two elders."

Yuan Yuan's expression was a little complicated. "Faced with two elders who had condensed their attribute seeds, it held the advantage in the fight, easily suppressing the two. According to the two elders' memories, the cyan wolf seemed to…"

Yuan Yuan paused. "It seems to be toying with them…"

"Although the two elders only condensed one attribute seed each, this is not weak. Yet they had no power to fight back against the cyan wolf."

"Oh?"

After hearing this, Xu Ning was a little surprised. "If that is the case, it means that the cyan wolf demon beast is extremely close to the dao realm. It is rare for the two elders to survive against a demon beast of this level."

Xu Ning guessed that the strength of the cyan wolf should be similar to that of Xu Hujun's. If it advanced further, it would reach the dao realm.

Yuan Yuan had a strange expression. "The two elders said that they survived not because they were strong enough, but because the cyan wolf deliberately went easy on them. After it seriously injured the two elders, the two elders were already in despair, but then it just left."

"And in the next month, that cyan wolf appeared several times in the Moon Gazing Sect, as if this place was its garden. And every time it appeared, it would take something from my sect, and when it ran into someone, it would play with them. Although it hurt people, it would not take their lives."

Yuan Yuan said, "This made the entire sect panic. The disciples of the sect were worried about the arrival of the people from State Wansheng, and now they have to worry about it as well."

"Is that so…"

Xu Ning also understood Yuan Yuan's situation.

Being targeted by a terrifying demon beast, although it did not kill people, it shook people's hearts and created panic.

"The behavior of this cyan wolf demon beast is like a child being naughty."

Si Ying said.

"That's right."

Yuan Yuan agreed.

Xu Ning nodded.

"This cyan wolf is becoming a problem for the disciples of the sect…"

Yuan Yuan sighed helplessly.

"Sect Master Yuan, don't worry, I will guard the Moon Gazing Sect. When it appears next time, I will personally face it."

Xu Ning had a look of expectation in his eyes.

Such a strong cyan wolf demon beast might really be related to the cyan wolf apparition in the copper knife and the copper fan.

Report chapter

Chapter 212: Void Beast?!

Seeing Xu Ning so confident, Yuan Yuan shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"Disciple-Nephew Xu Ning, it's more important to protect yourself. If you are really injured by that cyan wolf demon beast, I can't explain it to Sect Master Mi."

Although Yuan Yuan expressed that he was helpless against the cyan wolf demon beast, he was not asking Xu Ning for help.

In his opinion, even if Xu Ning had condensed an attribute seed, he was still far inferior to the two injured elders in the sect, let alone the cyan wolf demon beast.

Xu Ning didn't say anything else. There was no need to prove anything.

He only hoped that the cyan wolf would appear soon. Maybe he could find some clues from it.

"Xu Ning, your demon beast look like a kitten, but its bloodline seems to of high-quality."

At this moment, Si Ying noticed Gray's uniqueness.

The current Gray was stronger than Si Ying and Yuan Yuan. So, with it taking the initiative to hide its aura, they couldn't notice that Gray was infinitely close to the half-step dao realm.

"This demon beast is indeed quite extraordinary…"

Yuan Yuan no longer wanted to mention the troubles brought by the cyan wolf demon beast. He instead turned his head and looked at Gray.

Si Ying leaned forward, wanting to reach out and pick up Gray.

When Gray saw this, its eyes revealed a look of disgust.

It bared its teeth and the silver mark on its forehead flashed. Its body then emitted the aura of a high level void realm demon beast.

"This…"

Si Ying subconsciously stepped back. She obviously didn't expect Gray to have such strength.

'This harmless demon beast is actually in the high level void realm?'

Si Yinghe and Yuan Yuan looked at Gray in surprise.

"Gray, don't be rude."

Xu Ning scolded.

After hearing this, Gray lowered his head again and curled up, ignoring Si Ying.

"Xu Ning, how did you subdue this demon beast?"

Si Ying asked.

It was common for powerful martial artists to tame demon beasts.

However, the higher the strength of a demon beast, the higher their intelligence, and stronger their self-awareness. This kind of demon beast would rather die than be tamed.

"I got to know it when I was in the mortal realm, and I did not subdue it. We are partners."

Xu Ning explained.

After saying this, Gray looked back at Si Ying with a smug expression.

"Disciple-Nephew Xu Ning is indeed extraordinary. Even this kind of demon beast took the initiative to find you as a companion."

Yuan Yuan sighed.

Although they didn't find out Gray's identity as a void beast, they both noticed that its bloodline was of high-quality.

"Let me thank Disciple-Nephew Xu Ning first for coming all this way and sparing no effort for the Moon Gazing Sect."

Yuan Yuan stood up. "Next, Disciple-Nephew Xu Ning, please come with me to see the elders and the outstanding disciples of the Moon Gazing Sect."

"Okay."

Xu Ning stood up.

Afterwards, Yuan Yuan took Xu Ning and greeted all the elders and elite disciples of the Moon Gazing Sect.

After learning about Xu Ning's past deeds and his current strength, both the elders and disciples were very polite to Xu Ning, especially some disciples, who expressed their respect for Xu Ning on the spot.

Xu Ning was naturally humble. After chatting with everyone, he suggested that those outstanding disciples could come to him to discuss martial arts cultivation at any time.

Just like this, Xu Ning easily won the favor of the entire Moon Gazing Sect.

Afterwards, Yuan Yuan hosted a banquet for Xu Ning. Although after advancing to the void realm, there was no need for food, the delicacies at the banquet were all boiled and cooked with spirit herbs so it was quite an unique experience.

After the welcoming banquet, Xu Ning was arranged to stay in a villa in the Moon Gazing Sect.

Yuan Yuan had arranged for disciples to wait on Xu Ning, but Xu Ning refused and only let Gray and Little Gray follow him in.

Over the next few days, besides occasionally receiving a few disciples from the Moon Gazing Sect for consultation, Xu Ning had been waiting for the appearance of the cyan wolf demon beast.

However, to Xu Ning's disappointment, the cyan wolf demon beast did not appear even once after he came to the Moon Gazing Sect.

'It wouldn't just stop coming, right?'

Xu Ning thought to himself.

'Do I have to take the initiative to lure it out?'

Xu Ning pondered.

The first time the cyan wolf demon beast appeared in the Moon Gazing Sect, it was attracted by the Paramount Fruit.

'Let's try.'

Xu Ning decided to see if he could lure it over.

Afterwards, Xu Ning took out a pill furnace and prepared to refine a pill that could attract demon beasts.

"Demon beasts are very sensitive to medicinal pills that can improve their bloodline aptitude. This sensitivity actually exceeded the ability of perception itself. It is rather the yearning of their bloodline."

Xu Ning threw a bunch of precious spirit herbs into the pill furnace.

Even Little Gray had never enjoyed these precious materials before.

Of course, this was also because Little Gray was not strong enough to withstand the medicinal effects.

Xu Ning activated the attribute seeds in his body, refined the spirit herbs in the pill furnace, and patiently refined the pill.

After about half an hour, a palm-sized azure pill flew out of the pill furnace.

'The demon beast blood cleansing pill refined this time is quite good.'

Xu Ning took it and looked at it carefully with a satisfied expression.

Demon beast blood cleansing pill was a general term. All medicinal pills that could improve the bloodline of demon beasts were called this.

'In order to make it even more enticing, I even added a few spirit herbs into it, allowing its medicinal properties and medicinal fragrance to spread more widely.'

Xu Ning spent a lot of effort on this.

Xu Ning walked out of the room with the demon beast blood cleansing pill.

As soon as he walked out of the room, Xu Ning saw Little Gray and Gray, two demon beasts, one big and one small, sitting on the ground and staring at Xu Ning.

More precisely, they were staring at the demon beast blood cleansing pill in Xu Ning's hand.

Especially Little Gray, it could feel its bloodline power trembling.

If Little Gray consumed this demon beast blood cleansing pill, its upper limit would break through the shackles of the mid level void realm. As long as it continued to eat large amounts of food, it would be able to advance to the high level void realm.

As for Gray, although this pill had little effect on it, the smell of this pill was too enticing.

"This is not for the both of you."

Xu Ning looked at Little Gray and Gray's expectant eyes, smiled, and gave them a disappointing answer.

"At least not for now."

Xu Ning added, "After it attracts the cyan wolf demon beast, I will give it to you."

After he said that, Little Gray cheered again.

Although Gray tried its best to restrain itself and maintain its composure, its gulping throat betrayed its true thoughts.

"Let's see if you will come or not."

Xu Ning jumped onto a tall tree in the garden and placed the demon beast blood cleansing pill on the top of the branches.

It was midnight right now. Xu Ning looked up and saw the full moon hanging high in the sky.

Afterwards, Xu Ning went down the tree and released the aura of a half-step dao realm master.

This was to prevent other small demon beasts from coming after smelling the medicinal fragrance. After all, it would be troublesome to drive them away.

Xu Ning sat cross-legged under the tree and waited. Little Gray and Gray isolated their perception, preventing them from being tempted by the medicinal fragrance.

Time slowly passed by.

After about four hours.

'It hasn't appeared yet…'

Xu Ning looked up. The demon beast blood cleansing pill was still there.

'Maybe it has left this place…'

Xu Ning guessed. 'Let's wait for another two hours. If it doesn't appear, then forget it…'

Afterwards, Xu Ning began to wait.

However, less than half an hour later, Xu Ning suddenly stood up.

Gray also seemed to sense something and suddenly stood up.

Xu Ning then saw a skinny cyan wolf on the roof of the villa.

"That is…"

Under the moonlight, Xu Ning took a clear look at the cyan wolf.

The quality of its fur and the color of its pupils, almost every part of its body was exactly the same as the will apparition of the cyan wolf in the copper knife and the copper fan.

'That's right, this cyan wolf is definitely related to the cyan wolf will apparition in the copper knife and fan!'

It might have been a guess earlier but Xu Ning was now certain.

The higher the level a demon beast was, the more obvious their unique characteristics would be. For such a perfect resemblance, there must be a direct bloodline connection.

"Auooooo!"

The cyan wolf raised its head and howled. The pressure from its body spread out, covering half of the entirety of the Moon Gazing Sect.

After discovering Xu Ning and Gray, it felt a strong sense of fear.

Afterwards, the cyan wolf turned into a shadow and ran towards the demon beast blood cleansing pill.

Xu Ning instantly made a move. He activated his bracer and released his attribute domain.

The cyan wolf was only one step away from the demon beast blood cleansing pill, but the moment Xu Ning released his attribute domain, it felt a fatal threat.

Almost without hesitation, the cyan wolf gave up on the demon beast blood cleansing pill, turned around, and fled.

'Trying to leave?'

Xu Ning didn't give it a chance at all. He chased after it.

Gray saw this and immediately followed.

As for Little Gray, it couldn't even raise its head under this level of pressure.

"Not good, the cyan wolf has appeared again!"

Many elders and disciples of the Moon Gazing Sect sensed the pressure released by the cyan wolf just now.

They had already experienced this before, so they all rushed towards the cave behind the sect.

Yuan Yuan and Si Ying wanted to hide, but after sensing that the cyan wolf had appeared at Xu Ning's villa, they gritted their teeth and rushed over.

They were afraid that something would happen to Xu Ning.

They still didn't know that Xu Ning was the one who attracted the cyan wolf.

"Where are you running to?"

Xu Ning's attribute domain had already enveloped the cyan wolf.

But the cyan wolf suddenly activated its bloodline power and broke free from Xu Ning's attribute domain.

At this moment, Gray followed up. It suddenly jumped up with its body stopping in mid-air.

Gray's head quickly expanded, and its mouth opened wide, producing a terrifying suction force towards the cyan wolf.

Coincidentally, Yuan Yuan and Si Ying arrived at the same time.

They happened to see Gray's terrifying power.

"This is…"

After seeing this scene, Yuan Yuan and Si Ying suddenly remembered the beast tide from three hundred years ago.

"A void beast?!"

Chapter 213: Bloodline Domain

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Although the widely circulated version of the beast tide 300 years ago was distorted, the terrifying power of the void beast that was recorded was relatively true.

So, after seeing Gray's performance, their expressions changed at the same time.

Yuan Yuan and Si Ying didn't expect that the angry kitten demon beast next to Xu Ning was a descendant of a void beast.

Instantly, the two's fear of the cyan wolf demon beast decreased a little, instead the fear in their hearts was instantly filled by Gray's appearance.

The deep rumors of the beast tide from 300 years ago made the two fear Gray.

'That void beast is actually following Xu Ning. This Xu Ning…'

Yuan Yuan and Si Ying's impression of Xu Ning was refreshed.

In their eyes, Xu Ning had become unpredictable and mysterious.

Xu Ning noticed Yuan Yuan and Si Ying rushing over. He also noticed that the two had recognized Gray.

However, Xu Ning did not explain anything. The most important thing now was to capture the cyan wolf demon beast.

After sensing the terrifying suction force, the cyan wolf tried its best to resist.

Its bloodline was activated again, and its skinny body began to expand rapidly. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a giant wolf that was ten meters long.

The face of the cyan wolf demon beast became more hideous and its aura surged out of its body.

This sudden transformation made the cyan wolf demon beast able to resist Gray's suction force.

The cyan wolf demon beast knew very well that once it was sucked into the stomach of the void beast, it would most likely die.

Gray was a little annoyed when it didn't manage to suck anything.

But even so, it did slow down the cyan wolf demon beast, which bought Xu Ning some time.

This time, Xu Ning enveloped the cyan wolf demon beast with his attribute domain.

'After this cyan wolf transformed, not only does it look the same as the cyan wolf will apparition, but its aura is also the same!'

Xu Ning willed and sword seals almost materialized in his domain.

There were also fist seals of the water and fire attribute that attacked the cyan wolf demon beast.

Not only was there physical damage, but there was also attribute damage that was even more destructive.

Now that Xu Ning had condensed six attribute seeds and was using a dao weapon, even though the cyan wolf demon beast was close to the dao realm, it was still ruthlessly suppressed by Xu Ning.

'Xu Ning is so strong!?'

After sensing the aura of the cyan wolf demon beast approaching Xu Ning, Yuan Yuan and Si Ying both wanted to help Xu Ning escape.

But they didn't expect that they would just be spectators when they reached here.

After seeing the terrifying scene inside Xu Ning's domain, the two didn't even want to help Xu Ning anymore.

Both of them knew very well that if they went up, not only would they be useless, but they would also be seriously injured.

"Xu Ning…"

Si Ying gently bit her lip.

Even though she had expected Xu Ning to grow quickly, she didn't expect Xu Ning to grow this quickly.

Showing this kind of strength meant that Xu Ning, as a half-step dao realm master, had not just condensed one attribute seed, but several.

'With Xu Ning's strength, even the seniors in the Thousand Flood Sect who deliberately suppressed their realm are not Xu Ning's opponents if they don't break through to the dao realm by force!'

Si Ying compared Xu Ning to the experts in the Thousand Flood Sect.

'Even if this person went to State Wansheng, he is definitely a terrifying person!'

Yuan Yuan was shocked.

The two were shocked, but Xu Ning did not notice them.

The cyan wolf demon beast was currently being completely suppressed by him.

Whoosh!

Right at this moment, the cyan wolf demon beast exploded again.

Countless scarlet blood qi instantly appeared around it, covering a radius of several hundred meters.

"Retreat!"

Yuan Yuan and Si Ying quickly chose to retreat.

The scarlet blood qi gave them a sense of fear.

Outside the battlefield, Little Gray reacted quickly. It spread its wings and instantly pulled away.

The blood qi quickly became dense, forming a bloody fog.

'The blood fog of this cyan wolf is similar to the domain of a true domain realm martial artist!'

Xu Ning also noticed this. 'Is this a bloodline domain?'

A bloodline domain was a domain that could only be activated by demon beasts. Its power was comparable to an attribute domain of a true domain realm martial artist.

However, there were very few high level void realm demon beasts that could activate their bloodline domain.

Even the current Gray was too young to refine its bloodline domain.

The bloodline domain of the cyan wolf demon beast spread out, making Gray feel provoked.

As a demon beast with a top-notch bloodline, Gray had an inexplicable sense of pride.

It opened its mouth and began to absorb the blood fog. It wanted to clean up everything.

But this time, Gray was obviously struggling.

The blood fog did not decrease because of Gray's devouring. Instead, after the blood fog entered Gray's void, it was not digested by the void. In fact, it even affected the stability of the void.

The void was the foundation of Gray. Once there was a problem with the void, it would be extremely troublesome to repair.

Therefore, Gray could only spit out the blood fog it had swallowed.

"Gray, leave the battlefield!"

Xu Ning also noticed Gray's discomfort and quickly urged.

Xu Ning was not afraid of the blood fog, but Gray's strength was still not enough to stand in this fight.

Although Gray was angry, it knew that it would definitely drag Xu Ning down if it stayed.

"Brother, be careful, we must catch this cyan wolf!"

Gray fiercely transmitted to Xu Ning before turning into a silver shadow and leaving the battlefield.

"You martial artist, you don't know what's good for you!"

At this moment, Xu Ning heard another voice.

This voice was a little childish and full of murderous intent.

"I will teach you a lesson today!"

'It's that cyan wolf!'

Xu Ning naturally knew who the owner of the voice was.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The blood fog suddenly began to surge.

The cyan wolf demon beast roared, then its body turned into a bloody fog, completely merging with the bloody fog around it.

'There is such an ability?'

Even Xu Ning was alert after seeing the ability of the cyan wolf demon beast.

After the cyan wolf demon beast merged into the blood fog, Xu Ning discovered that he couldn't lock onto its aura.

'I have to be extremely careful!'

The six attribute seeds in Xu Ning's body were spinning rapidly.

Xu Ning's attribute domain had shrunk to ten meters around him. He was alert for any abnormal changes.

Swoosh!

The blood fog behind Xu Ning suddenly condensed into the shape of a giant wolf without any warning.

The cyan wolf demon beast's eyes were fierce as it swiped at Xu Ning.

Scarlet bloodline power surged on its claws with endless power.

'Behind me!'

With the help of the domain around him, Xu Ning instantly reacted as he twisted his body to dodge.

After reaching the ninth level of Water Shadow Aberration, Xu Ning's reaction speed was much faster.

Auoo!

The cyan wolf demon beast did not continue to fight.

It just merged into the blood fog again.

'So patient…'

Xu Ning thought to himself.

Swoosh!

The cyan wolf demon beast appeared again and swiped its claw.

This time, Xu Ning dodged it again.

'I wonder how long this will take…'

Xu Ning's eyes showed a hint of coldness.

"Flame Breath Bone Sutra!"

A blood-red armor appeared on Xu Ning's body.

Three of the six attribute seeds condensed by Xu Ning were fire attribute seeds.

This caused Xu Ning's Flame Breath Bone Sutra Armor to be even more indestructible.

Pak!

The cyan wolf demon beast appeared again and slapped its paw down.

This time, Xu Ning noticed it in advance, but he did not dodge.

Crack!

The claws of the cyan wolf demon beast collided with the fiery red armor.

After the collision, a transparent crack appeared on the fiery red armor.

But this transparent crack was healed in the blink of an eye by Xu Ning's attribute power.

The cyan wolf demon beast noticed this and was angered again.

Its figure started to condense around Xu Ning, and it attacked again and again.

The fiery red armor on Xu Ning's body kept cracking and healing rapidly.

Xu Ning was only passively receiving attacks, but he was not injured at all.

'Too strong!'

Although Yuan Yuan and Si Ying were outside the blood fog and couldn't see the scene inside the blood fog clearly, as true domain realm martial artists, they could sense the situation inside.

"Xu Ning has mastered many secret techniques. He even covers all aspects."

Yuan Yuan exclaimed, "His offensive, defensive, and movement techniques have all reached the extreme. It can be said that there is no fault on his body."

Yuan Yuan also understood that the two elders were only facing the ordinary cyan wolf demon beast.

But now, this was the ultimate state of the cyan wolf demon beast.

Si Ying was silent, but her respect for Xu Ning was almost tangible.

'Brother, take it down!'

Gray sat on Little Gray's head and thought.

After being defeated by the cyan wolf demon beast just now, Gray was anxious to get back at it.

Xu Ning remained motionless in the blood fog.

'Except for when this cyan wolf attacks, it will hide in the bloody fog, unable to be effectively attacked.'

After experiencing this passive defense, Xu Ning sorted out his thoughts. 'So, if I want to seriously injure it, I have to either disperse the blood fog completely, or attack and subdue it when it transforms into its physical form.'

'But this cyan wolf is too fast. I have to put in more effort…'

Xu Ning gave a pondering look.

Whoosh!

After the cyan wolf missed again, Xu Ning's body was suddenly wrapped in a water membrane.

Void realm secret movement technique, Water Shadow Aberration!

After being wrapped by the water membrane, Xu Ning's movements obviously sped up.

He instantly escaped the range of the blood fog.

Seeing this, the cyan wolf demon beast quickly activated the blood fog and caught up with Xu Ning, enveloping Xu Ning again.

The cyan wolf demon beast attacked again.

Poof!

This time, its claws pierced through Xu Ning.

But during this process, the cyan wolf demon beast did not notice another water membrane figure appearing outside the range of the blood fog.

Report chapter

Chapter 214 Master of the Cyan Wolf, Kept In The Demon Beast Scroll

After piercing the figure wrapped in the water membrane, the cyan wolf's eyes showed a look of satisfaction.

In its opinion, after activating its bloodline domain, it had finally defeated this human enemy.

However, the cyan wolf demon beast instantly felt that something was wrong.

The water membrane did not resist at all after being pierced

It suddenly felt like it had been tricked, and it quickly wanted to merge its body into the blood fog again.

But it was still a step too slow.

Another figure wrapped in a water membrane suddenly rushed into the blood fog and locked onto the cyan wolf demon beast.

The moment the cyan wolf demon beast was about to turn into a bloody fog, the water membrane figure slapped down with its palm, injuring the cyan wolf demon beast with its attribute power and true qi, and at the same time disrupting the bloodline power in its

body.

The cyan wolf demon beast cried out in pain.

The circulation of the bloodline power in his body was interrupted and the vast blood fog instantly melted away. "Stop struggling!"

The water membrane faded, revealing Xu Ning's figure.

Just now, Xu Ning tricked the cyan wolf with the Water Shadow Aberration, and when it was distracted, he took it down in one fell swoop.

"Xu Ning captured the cyan wolf demon beast!"

Si Ying looked over and exclaimed.

When Yuan Yuan saw this, he said, "I will go and get a special beast cage!" Afterwards, Yuan Yuan disappeared.

"He is my brother indeed!"

After seeing Xu Ning capture the cyan wolf demon beast, Gray grinned, revealing its sharp teeth.

"You human martial artist, how dare you treat me like this!"

The cyan wolf demon beast was furious. "I will definitely not let you off!" "Think about how to escape first."

Xu Ning didn't care about the threat of the cyan wolf demon beast.

He used his true qi and attribute power to seal the bloodline power of the cyan wolf demon beast.

However, its bloodline power was very resilient, so Xu Ning had to spend some effort.

After its bloodline power was suppressed, the aura of the cyan wolf demon beast instantly weakened, and the giant wolf shrank again, becoming the size of an ordinary gray wolf.

"Disciple-Nephew Xu Ning, lock it in this beast cage!"

Yuan Yuan raised his hands and took out a giant beast cage.

He then threw the beast cage to the ground.

Xu Ning glanced at it and knew that this beast cage was specially made. Ordinary high level void realm demon beasts would rarely be able to escape.

The cyan wolf demon beast was currently under intense suppression and was not even as strong as Little Gray, so it would definitely be unable to escape this cage.

"Tell me, why did you hurt the people from the Moon Gazing Sect?" Xu Ning threw the cyan wolf demon beast in. Its resistance was useless.

The cyan wolf demon beast bared its teeth with a fierce look in its eyes.

It felt that its dignity had been trampled by Xu Ning.

"Not talking?"

Xu Ning snorted. "I'll kill you if you don't tell

me."

The cyan wolf demon beast stared at Xu Ning. "I didn't kill anyone, I just came here to take some things away with me every time."

The cyan wolf demon beast's attitude seemed tough, but its words softened.

It was really afraid of Xu Ning.

"You demon beast, you injured two elders and many disciples of my sect, and you still dare to quibble like this!"

Yuan Yuan said to the cyan wolf demon beast.

The cyan wolf demon beast glanced at Yuan Yuan, then ignored him.

In its opinion, if it weren't for the fact that its bloodline power was suppressed and it was imprisoned here, killing Yuan Yuan would be a piece of cake.

"Sect Master Yuan."

Xu Ning turned to look at Yuan Yuan. "I think this cyan wolf has a lot of secrets, so I want to interrogate it alone."

Xu Ning wanted to dig out the secrets of the cyan wolf will apparition from the cyan wolf demon beast.

"In this case, thank you, Disciple-Nephew Xu Ning."

Yuan Yuan immediately understood Xu Ning's intentions. "Then we will take our leave first."

Yuan Yuan didn't care what secrets Xu Ning could dig out from the cyan wolf demon beast.

Now that the sect was no longer threatened by unstable factors, he felt much better.

After saying that, Yuan Yuan gave Si Ying a look.

Si Ying glanced at Xu Ning again before leaving with Yuan Yuan.

Xu Ning carried the beast cage and brought it back to the villa. Little Gray and Gray followed behind him.

"This is for you."

Xu Ning divided the demon beast blood cleansing pill into two and threw it to Gray and Little Gray. Gray grabbed it and stuffed it into its mouth.

Little Gray opened its mouth and swallowed it.

This demon beast blood cleansing pill could further improve their bloodline aptitude.

Especially Little Gray, after taking it, it would soon reach the limit of a mid level void realm demon beast and begin to move towards the high level void realm.

Seeing this scene, the cyan wolf demon beast in the beast cage gulped.

"You cyan wolf, although annoying, you have no intention of killing anyone."

Xu Ning said to the cyan wolf demon beast, "If you can solve my doubts, I will let you go."

"You are still willing to let me go?"

The cyan wolf demon beast had a lively look in its eyes.

It did not feel any murderous intent from Xu Ning.

"Of course."

Xu Ning nodded.

"Tell me, what do you want to know?"

The cyan wolf demon beast didn't know if Xu Ning was lying to it, but it seemed to have no other choice.

"Do you recognize this?"

Xu Ning took out the copper knife and the copper fan he had obtained from Gu Juan and Zhang Tong. "Why are these in your hands?!"

As soon as the copper knife and the copper fan were revealed, the cyan wolf suddenly stood up with a surprised expression.

"Of course I do recognize them!"

Xu Ning was intrigued.

Although this cyan wolf demon beast had human-like wisdom, its behavior had a hint of stupidity. Compared to Gray, except for showing the aura of a top demon beast in battle, Gray knew how to hide its emotions and desires.

Of course, if it were like Gray, it would not have been attracted by the demon beast blood cleansing pill.

"These belong to my master!"

The cyan wolf demon beast paced back and forth in the beast cage with an excited expression. "But these things have been lost for decades. How did you get them?"

"Could it be… that you stole them at that time?"

The cyan wolf demon beast looked at Xu Ning with confusion and contempt.

"Stole?"

Xu Ning shook his head. "I recently got this."

"Just recently, there were two people who wanted to kill me, and they were holding these dao weapons, but I killed them and took the weapons for myself."

Xu Ning explained.

"Oh, right…"

The cyan wolf demon beast seemed to remember something. "Back then, there were indeed two people who stole these two dao weapons."

"These dao weapons are extremely special. There is a cyan wolf will apparition that looks just like you inside."

Xu Ning continued to ask, "These dao weapons are extraordinary. What secrets are there inside? Moreover, who is your master?"

Xu Ning felt that there was a 90% chance that the owner of this cyan wolf demon beast was a dao realm master.

Although most people would leave the seventeen states of the Abyss North after breaking through to the dao realm, it could not be completely ruled out that some dao realm masters would choose to stay here and live a carefree life. "This belongs to my master, so how do I know what secrets are inside?" The cyan wolf demon beast was straightforward. "I am a demon beast, not a human, and I don't use dao weapons."

"Moreover, my master is my master. He is an extremely powerful dao realm master! He can kill ten people like you with one slap." As he said that, the cyan wolf demon beast was a little proud.

Bang! Before Xu Ning could say anything, Gray leaned forward.

After hearing the cyan wolf demon beast's provocative words to Xu Ning, Gray was a little angry. Its small claws slapped the beast cage, then it stared at it threateningly.

The cyan wolf demon beast did not back down when it saw this.

As demon beasts with top bloodlines, both sides had pride in their bones.

Xu Ning shook his head helplessly. He grabbed Gray's neck and threw it aside. "What is your master's name? Does he have a title?"

Xu Ning asked. "Um…"

The cyan wolf demon beast reached out with its front paws and scratched the back of its head. "I don't know."

Xu Ning was a little speechless.

"I have answered your questions, are you going to let me go now?" After asking that, the cyan wolf demon beast looked expectant.

"You haven't solved my doubts, so why should I let you go?"

Xu Ning sneered.

"You lied to me?!"

The cyan wolf demon beast instantly exploded.

Xu Ning ignored him.

After spending a lot of effort, he only found a few simple pieces of information from the cyan wolf demon beast.

The original master of the copper knife and the copper fan in his hands was a dao realm master.

Other than that, there was no other valuable information.

'I can't let this cyan wolf go yet…'

After learning that this cyan wolf demon beast had a master who was in the dao realm, Xu Ning realized that this cyan wolf demon beast was a problem.

If he let it go, it would definitely return to its master.

If its master decided to come to take revenge on him, he would definitely not be a match for a dao realm master.

But if he didn't let it go, the owner of the cyan wolf demon beast would come looking for it, and if he found out that it was imprisoned, then it would still be very troublesome.

'It seems that I have to hide it…'

Xu Ning examined the cyan wolf demon beast.

The look in Xu Ning's eyes made the cyan wolf demon beast shiver.

Compared to before, Xu Ning's eyes seemed to have changed. He was obviously up to no good. "Gray."

Xu Ning patted Gray's head. "Throw it into the Demon Beast Scroll."

Since he didn't want this cyan wolf demon beast to be exposed and be found by its owner, throwing it into the Demon Beast Scroll was an excellent choice.

Hearing this, Gray's eyes lit up. The Demon Beast Scroll was its territory. Therefore, as long as the cyan wolf demon beast was thrown in, it could only be controlled by it.

Gray's eyes narrowed, as if it was smiling.

The beast cage was opened.

"Demon Beast Scroll? What is a Demon Beast Scroll?"

The cyan wolf demon beast resisted, but it was useless.

If it was in its peak state, it could still resist Gray sending it into the Demon Beast Scroll, but it was useless now.

Swoosh!

In a flash, the cyan wolf demon beast disappeared.

It had entered the Demon Beast Scroll.

'It seems that I have to wait until I reach the dao realm before contacting the owner of this cyan wolf.'

Xu Ning thought to himself.

If he knew the secret of the cyan wolf will apparition, he would definitely be able to obtain more benefits.

Report chapter

Chapter 215 The People From State Wansheng Are Here

State Jifeng.

Fenglin County.

This was the nearest county city to the Moon Gazing Sect.

Several people in martial arts clothes and hats entered Fenglin County.

After entering the county city, they walked into a random restaurant and booked a single room.

Afterwards, they removed their hats, revealing their faces.

"The seventeen states of the Abyss North are great. There are not so many terrifying experts here. Here, we are simply unrestrained."

The person who spoke was a man who looked to be in his thirties. He drank the alcohol in his glass and savored it before showing a satisfied expression.

"That's right, I even want to stay here and never return to State Wansheng."

Another disciple sighed as he savored the delicacies in front of him.

These people were from State Wansheng.

This batch of disciples was sent out to control more sects in State Jifeng, in order to use them as puppets. "If I don't return to State Wansheng and continue to stay in this barren land, I'm afraid I won't be able to reach the dao realm in my life."

A disciple responded.

"So what if I advance to the dao realm? Unless I advance to the high levels of the dao realm and become a sect master or an elder of a top sect recognized by the Imperial Court, there still no feeling of ease that we can easily get here."

The disciple who spoke first responded.

"Okay, stop complaining."

A bearded man in his forties whispered.

"Take advantage of this time to savor this world and the delicacies. Don't say meaningless things anymore."

The others immediately fell silent at his words.

"Understood, Senior Brother Mo."

The other disciples played with their bowls and chopsticks.

As disciples of an informal sect in State Wansheng, they had been immediately forced to practice martial arts the moment they entered the sect.

In order to save time, they had to swallow those tasteless pills.

In State Wansheng, the competition for martial arts was too fierce.

Although the Imperial Court could preside over the overall situation, those unofficial sects were not protected.

They could only survive in an environment where fights were constant.

This was why their mental state had changed after coming to the seventeen states of the Abyss North.

In less than an hour, they had eaten several rounds.

Putting down his bowl and chopsticks, Senior Brother Mo looked at everyone.

"We came here with the expectations of the Sect Master and elders. We have to control as many important sects in State Jifeng as possible."

"Only in this way can we deploy people to search for traces of the Demon Beast Scroll and Old Man Wan Ye."

Senior Brother Mo's expression was quite serious. "We have learned that the large sects in State Jifeng have formed an alliance due to the influence of the Source Sect. In this situation, we have to fight separately. In comparison to the other batch of disciples, we are under a lot of pressure."

"Therefore, I hope that everyone will stop underestimating them and seriously fulfill the requests of the Sect Master and elders." "Yes, Senior Brother Mo!"

The disciples around Senior Brother Mo quickly reined in their laziness.

"Next, our first goal is the Moon Gazing Sect, which is the closest to Fenglin County. There are two half-step dao realm masters in the Moon Gazing Sect, and they should also have dao weapons. Moreover, they may also have some help." "However, this is still far inferior to our combined strength. If there are no special circumstances, we should be able to completely subdue the higher-ups of the sect and rule over their sect."

Senior Brother Mo said, "Okay, let's get ready to go."

Moon Gazing Sect.

The news that the cyan wolf demon beast that came to harass the sect was subdued by Xu Ning had spread throughout the Moon Gazing Sect.

The disciples who respected Xu Ning were even more respectful to him.

As for Yuan Yuan and the other sect elders, they were more certain that with Xu Ning around, even if the two top elders were in seclusion and recuperating, the Moon Gazing Sect would be safe.

After putting the cyan wolf demon beast into the Demon Beast Scroll that night, Xu Ning explained to Yuan Yuan and others that the cyan wolf demon beast had been released by him.

The excuse he came up with was that there was a powerful character behind the cyan wolf demon beast. And if it took the initiative to find him, there would be a lot of trouble.

Although Xu Ning's excuse was not perfect, Yuan Yuan and Si Ying both knew better than to pry. The cyan wolf demon beast was subdued by Xu Ning, so they naturally didn't say anything.

On this day.

Xu Ning refined another batch of pills.

After Little Gray swallowed the one-half of a demon beast blood cleansing pill [reviously, its upper limit increased again.

This batch of pills was for Little Gray to consume for its foundation to accumulate.

There were a lot of pills in this batch. Xu Ning put the pills into a small pot and gave it to Little Gray.

Little Gray swallowed the small pot of pills excitedly. It could feel the surging bloodline power in its body. It knew that it was about to break through.

Gray yawned when it saw this.

It didn't feel that Xu Ning was biased. Gray knew very well that its bloodline level was very high, so it was almost impossible to achieve a qualitative change if it ate these pills. "Xu Ning."

At this moment, Si Ying found Xu Ning.

"Senior Sister Si."

Xu Ning took the initiative to welcome her.

"A group of patrolling disciples has disappeared near the Moon Gazing Sect." Si Ying's expression was serious. "They went out to patrol last night. It has been twelve hours, but there is still no news."

"Hmm?"

Xu Ning took this news seriously.

Ordinary sect disciples were very disciplined. They would definitely not disappear for no reason.

Thus, something must have happened.

In the past, they would wonder if they were abducted or killed by other enemy sects, but now, they wonder if they were targeted by the people from State Wansheng.

"Sect Master Yuan is a little worried that those disciples were forcibly taken away by the people of State Wansheng to interrogate about the situation of the Moon Gazing Sect."

Si Ying said.

"That's very likely to be so…"

Xu Ning also felt that this was a high probability.

"Have we sent someone to find them?"

Xu Ning thought about it and asked.

"We have sent another batch of disciples to search for them." Si Ying said, "Some sect elders wanted to search for them personally, but they were stopped by Sect Master Yuan. Sect Master Yuan is afraid that if something happens to them, the losses will be even greater."

Xu Ning felt that Yuan Yuan was quite thoughtful. "What should we do next?"

Si Ying asked Xu Ning.

Unknowingly, she had already regarded Xu Ning as her backbone.

"Let's wait for Sect Master Yuan's orders. After all, he is the Sect Master of the Moon Gazing Sect."

Xu Ning replied.

"Okay."

Si Ying left worriedly.

The disappearance of these disciples gave Xu Ning a premonition.

The troubles of the Moon Gazing Sect might come soon.

Outside the Moon Gazing Sect.

In a hidden forest.

The missing Moon Gazing Sect disciples had been dealt with by Senior Brother Mo and the others.

After dealing with them, Senior Brother Mo and the others learned the current situation of the Moon Gazing Sect from those disciples.

"So the two half-step dao realm masters of the Moon Gazing Sect are seriously injured. It seems that our first goal can be easily achieved."

A disciple said with a smile.

Senior Brother Mo glanced at the disciple coldly, and the disciple quickly restrained his smile.

"Although the two half-step dao realm masters have lost their combat power, there is a stronger Yuelan Sect disciple holding down the fort. The difficulty of controlling the Moon Gazing Sect is now higher than expected."

Senior Brother Mo already knew about Xu Ning subduing the cyan wolf.

However, because this news came from the mouths of ordinary disciples, they could not estimate the strength of Xu Ning and the cyan wolf.

"That Yuelan Sect disciple should be a half-step dao realm master who has condensed two to three attribute seeds."

Another disciple said, "Although his strength is not bad, he is far inferior to Senior Brother Mo. Senior Brother Mo is a dual attribute cultivator who has condensed four attribute seeds. Moreover, Senior Brother Mo also has an all attribute dao weapon specially bestowed by the Sect Master. With him, it will be easy to deal with that Yuelan Sect disciple."

Senior Brother Mo didn't say much this time. What this disciple said was what he also thought.

He was confident in his current combat strength.

"Okay, we have roughly learned about the situation of the Moon Gazing Sect, let's go."

Senior Brother Mo didn't want to waste any time.

"Oh yeah…"

Senior Brother Mo reminded, "Although the weakest among you is in the true intent realm, you have to pay attention to your own safety. Once I face that Yuelan Sect disciple, I may not have the time to take care of you."

"Senior Brother, don't worry, we know what to do."

A disciple quickly said.

"Mmm…"

Senior Brother Mo nodded and led the way, rushing to the Moon Gazing Sect.

'I hope everything goes smoothly.' A look of determination appeared in Senior Brother Mo's eyes.

Before coming to State Jifeng, he was personally summoned by the Sect Master and was entrusted with a mission, so Senior Brother Mo was under a lot of pressure.

He knew very well that if this trip was successful, he would definitely be valued by the Sect Master. Once that happened, he would be given resources to help him achieve the dao realm and become an elder of the sect.

But if the result of this trip did not meet expectations, then his future advancement would be greatly delayed.

Unless it was a half-step dao realm master who deliberately suppressed their realm, otherwise someone like him who had no foundation and had only condensed four attribute seeds, the resources needed to break through and the difficulty he faced when doing so were extremely ridiculous. The group rushed towards the Moon Gazing Sect.

Inside the Moon Gazing Sect.

Inside the villa, Xu Ning suddenly looked in the direction of the Moon Gazing Sect's entrance gate.

'They are here… They should be from State Wansheng…!

Xu Ning sensed that a half-step dao realm master was approaching.

The aura of the half-step dao realm master was extremely strong. He could be said to be the strongest half-step dao realm master Xu Ning had ever come into contact with aside from Qiu Renshan and Du Yuan.

Xu Ning perked up and took their arrival seriously.

Although he was invincible below the dao realm, these people were obviously not to be underestimated.

After all, there was a true dao realm master behind them, and he might have a backup plan.

'Let's go and take a look!'

Xu Ning disappeared from the courtyard.

Gray followed closely behind.

At the gate.

Senior Brother Mo and the others had arrived. Beside them were the disciples of the Moon Gazing Sect. "Hmm?"

Just as he was about to step forth, Senior Brother Mo suddenly stopped.

He looked up and saw a young man in a white robe.

'So he is the Yuelan Sect disciple…'

Senior Brother Mo and Xu Ning looked at each other.

Report chapter

Chapter 216 Wan Ye

Xu Ning and Senior Brother Mo stood still and looked at each other. Neither of them moved.

The disciples standing behind Senior Brother Mo also felt Xu Ning's aura and began to be a little cautious.

'He gives me a threatening feeling…'

Senior Brother Mo was ready to defend against Xu Ning's sudden attack. "Xu Ning!" "Disciple-Nephew Xu Ning!"

Si Ying, Yuan Yuan, and several elders of the Moon Gazing Sect followed closely behind.

The two sides faced each other.

'Except for the white-robed man in front of me, the others are not a threat.'

Senior Brother Mo glanced at everyone's aura.

"Everyone from the Moon Gazing Sect."

Senior Brother Mo took the initiative to speak. "You should know that we are from State Wansheng. We came to State Jifeng with no intention of offending you. We just want to borrow the resources of the Moon Gazing Sect to find some clues, so please cooperate with

us."

Senior Brother Mo's words made the people of the Moon Gazing Sect feel uncomfortable.

After all, there were many Moon Gazing Sect disciples lying next to them.

"You just killed our people, but you said you didn't mean to offend us…"

Xu Ning sneered. "How ridiculous."

Senior Brother Mo also noticed that Xu Ning seemed to want to fight him head-on.

"It seems that you don't want to cooperate…"

Although Senior Brother Mo felt that Xu Ning was a troublesome character, he was not afraid at all.

He flipped his wrist and grabbed a spear.

The spear had a simple appearance, but the tip of the spear was engraved with some patterns.

'It's a dao weapon…'

Xu Ning instantly noticed.

"Since everyone has no intention of welcoming us as guests, then we can only be the master!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Senior Brother Mo released his domain, which instantly enveloped Xu Ning.

Similarly, Xu Ning counterattacked and released his own domain, colliding with Senior Brother Mo's domain.

"I'll deal with this person, you guys deal with the others!"

Senior Brother Mo said to the people around him.

"Understood!"

The disciples around Senior Brother Mo immediately responded.

"Sect Master Yuan, Senior Sister Si, protect yourself!"

Xu Ning took the initiative to fight.

They each fought their own enemies, forming two battlefields.

Gray had also arrived. It wanted to help Xu Ning, but Xu Ning directed it to help the others instead.

Gray knew that it was not strong enough, so it listened obediently.

In his domain, Senior Brother Mo waved his dao weapon spear, bringing with it countless terrifying air currents.

Xu Ning activated his bracer and the water-fire sword and fist seals attacked like a storm.

'This person is also a dual attribute martial artist!'

Senior Brother Mo was surprised.

'And the number of attribute seeds he has condensed seems to be greater than mine!' The more they fought, the more strenuous Senior Brother Mo felt.

Xu Ning's domain not only covered a larger area than his, but it was also more powerful than his.

'This person has condensed six attribute seeds!

As the fight continued, Senior Brother Mo, who had a dao weapon with all attributes, discovered that he was completely suppressed. He didn't even have a chance to breathe.

"There is such a character in a small place like the seventeen states?'

Senior Brother Mo was in disbelief. 'Even in State Wansheng, he will be considered a top genius, right? In front of him, even the core disciples of official sects recognized by the Imperial Court are nothing special, right?'

Senior Brother Mo had condensed four attribute seeds himself, which was already beyond the average people.

But the enemy in front of him not only condensed more attribute seeds than him, but was also younger.

'I'm in trouble!'

Senior Brother Mo discovered that he seemed to have fallen into a swamp. He had no chance to resist at all.

He looked at his junior brothers and sisters and discovered that they were also at a disadvantage.

His junior brothers and sisters had the advantage in terms of realm, but after a silver-white kitten demon beast entered the battlefield, the situation was reversed, and they were ruthlessly suppressed by the Moon Gazing Sect.

Senior Brother Mo was anxious and his movements became more and more deformed.

Xu Ning also noticed that Senior Brother Mo had become a little impatient.

'The people from State Wansheng don't seem to be as strong as I thought.'

Xu Ning thought to himself. 'After defeating this person, I will capture and interrogate him about their situation.'

Xu Ning had not released his full strength yet.

He hadn't used the copper knife and the copper fan that contained the will of the cyan wolf.

Moreover, Xu Hujun was still in the Demon Beast Scroll. If he was struggling, he could totally let Gray summon him.

Xu Ning still had more than one trump card in his hand.

"Tidal Fist!" "Volcano Fist!"

Xu Ning's fists condensed blue and red qi currents. He took advantage of an opening and hit Senior Brother Mo, who was dodging the sword rain.

'Not good!'

Senior Brother Mo couldn't react in time.

He felt a violent string of attribute power entering his body, destroying his meridians.

'I'm not his opponent!' Senior Brother Mo wanted to retreat at this moment.

He glanced at his junior brothers and sisters on the other side of the battlefield and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

'I have no choice, I have to protect myself!' Senior Brother Mo had completely lost his sense of responsibility. He first endured his injuries and pretended to attack before turning around and fleeing away.

'He actually ran away?'

Xu Ning thought that Senior Brother Mo was going to counterattack and fight with his life on the line, but he didn't expect it to be a feint.

Xu Ning quickly reacted and chased after him.

"Not good, Senior Brother Mo escaped!"

Senior Brother Mo's junior brothers and sisters also noticed this.

They had already wanted to retreat after having to defend tirelessly. Now, they didn't even have the intention to continue fighting.

Just like Senior Brother Mo, they fled in all directions.

"Chase!"

Yuan Yuan immediately gave the order.

At this instant, Yuan Yuan was full of fighting spirit.

He thought that the people from State Wansheng were invincible, but now it seemed that they were too weak.

Of course, Yuan Yuan also knew that if it weren't for Xu Ning and Gray, Senior Brother Mo alone would have defeated everyone in the Moon Gazing Sect.

After receiving Yuan Yuan's order, Si Ying and several elders chased after them.

When Gray saw this, it opened its mouth and suddenly sucked. In an instant, a huge suction force stopped several of the fleeing people.

They were all caught by Yuan Yuan, Si Ying, and others. They couldn't resist at all, and none of them escaped. They were all captured alive.

On the other side, Xu Ning had already caught up with Senior Brother Mo.

"Our Sect Master and elders are all dao realm masters. If you kill me, a dao realm master will definitely kill you!"

Seeing that he couldn't escape, Senior Brother Mo turned around and threatened.

Hearing the threat, Xu Ning didn't care. He just laughed. "Even if I don't kill you, you will still focus on me in the future. But so what? There are half-step dao realm masters in the top sects of the seventeen states. If they forcibly break through, there will be a lot of dao realm masters, so we may not truly be afraid of you!"

"So stubborn…"

Senior Brother Mo was at his wit's end. He knew that if this continued, he would have no chance.

'Forget it!'

A fluorescent crystal appeared in Senior Brother Mo's hand.

Seeing it, Xu Ning quickly took precautions.

Crack!

Senior Brother Mo crushed the fluorescent crystal

Just when Xu Ning thought that Senior Brother Mo was about to use his trump card, he discovered that Senior Brother Mo had disappeared on the spot.

'It's not a trump card, it's a life-saving technique!

Xu Ning reacted.

However, Senior Brother Mo had completely disappeared from Xu Ning's perception range.

'Spatial technique…' Xu Ning had only seen this kind of teleportation technique in the mystic realm in the past. This was a technique only a dao realm master could use. 'Let's go back first…'

Xu Ning frowned. He really didn't expect this.

He didn't know where Senior Brother Mo was running to, so there was no need to chase after him.

'Sect Master Yuan and the others have probably captured the other disciples and interrogated them to dig out the secrets of the people in State Wansheng.'

Xu Ning left and returned to the Moon Gazing Sect.

At the same time.

Senior Brother Mo appeared in a desolate mountain not far from the Moon Gazing Sect.

'I'm in trouble this time…'

There was no joy in Senior Brother Mo's eyes. Instead, there was endless worry and fear in his heart.

His first mission in State Jifeng had led to such a tragic end.

If this news reached the ears of the Sect Master and elders, he might even be punished.

Senior Brother Mo's eyes were full of hatred. He gritted his teeth.

'I have to find a way to make up for my mistakes, otherwise… I can only find a place to hide in the seventeen states of the Abyss North and never to appear again.' Senior Brother Mo's heart was full of despair.

Only after a long time, Senior Brother Mo calmed down with difficulty.

However, just when he was about to leave the desolate mountain, he noticed a figure in front of him.

It was a skinny old man. He was hunched over with a cane in his hand. His muddy eyes were staring at him.

"Who are you?!"

Senior Brother Mo's heart trembled.

He didn't notice this person at all.

If it weren't for the fact that he could see him with his naked eye, Senior Brother Mo discovered that there was no aura of this person in his perception range.

At this moment, Senior Brother Mo was full of fear.

The inexplicable sense of danger exuding from this old man was several levels higher than that of Xu Ning.

'A… a dao realm master!'

Senior Brother Mo realized that he had only felt this degree of danger from the Sect Master and elders of the sect.

"Who am I?"

The old man turned into a shadow and appeared in front of Senior Brother Mo.

"Haven't you been searching for me? Why don't you know who I am?"

The old man's voice was gentle, and his smile was kind.

But when this voice entered Senior Brother Mo's ears, his body stiffened.

"You… you are… Old Man Wan Ye?"

Senior Brother Mo spoke with difficulty.

"That's right."

The old man nodded. "My name is Wan Ye, but I have always maintained an old appearance, so I am normally referred to as Old Man Wan Ye."

"I am relieved that you guys came to find me after crossing the Endless Sea Abyss from State Wansheng. After all, it has been a long time since anyone has missed me this much…"

Report chapter

Chapter 217 Wan Ye's Excitement

After hearing Old Man Wan Ye admit his identity, Senior Brother Mo was shocked.

They came to State Wansheng to find Wan Ye not out of good intentions, but because they wanted to take away the sect token from Old Man Wan Ye and use it in State Wansheng to become an official sect recognized by the Imperial Court.

"Senior…"

Senior Brother Mo broke out in cold sweat.

Although he wanted to figure out Wan Ye's whereabouts, he didn't want to face this dao realm master.

"You came here for the sect token, right?"

Wan Ye asked with a smile.

"Yes…"

Senior Brother Mo did not dare to hide anything, so he responded. "Tell me, which sect are you from, and where did you learn that I am in the seventeen states of the Abyss North?"

Wan Ye asked Senior Brother Mo. "We are from the Jade Night Sect in State Wansheng…"

Afterwards, Senior Brother Mo told Wan Ye everything he knew.

Wan Ye continued to ask about the details.

Senior Brother Mo didn't dare to be vague. He answered whatever Wan Ye asked.

"Kid, you're quite honest…"

After hearing a lot of information from Senior Brother Mo, Wan Ye patted him on the shoulder.

Senior Brother Mo didn't dare to move. He could only smile.

But as he smiled, Senior Brother Mo's expression suddenly froze.

After Wan Ye's palm left his shoulder, he fell to the ground as his breath extinguished.

"Don't blame me for being ruthless. You came from State Wansheng to take my life and snatch my sect token. If I don't kill you, you will bring back the news. At that point, I will be the one in danger…"

Wan Ye muttered to himself, then sighed. "Life is unpredictable. Back then, I never expected that an unknown small sect would dare to make things difficult for me…" "I really don't know if the sect can still be rebuilt…"

A black iron token appeared in Wan Ye's hand.

On the token were the words "Sect Token".

Wan Ye had a look of nostalgia on his face, but suddenly, his expression changed. He spat out a mouthful of blood, his face turning pale.

He quickly took out a pill and swallowed it.

After taking the pill, his face and aura slowly returned to normal.

"My days are numbered…"

There was a hint of bitterness in Wan Ye's eyes.

"If I don't find a successor to give the sect token to, then the sect will definitely not be rebuilt…"

Wan Ye showed a helpless expression. "In my current state, I will definitely not be able to cross the Endless Sea Abyss and return to State Wansheng. If I really want to find a successor and rebuild the sect, I can only find a descendant from the seventeen states of the Abyss North… It's just that the so-called young geniuses in the seventeen states of the Abyss North have good aptitude, but they are still far from being able to take on the responsibility of rebuilding the sect…"

"It's really difficult to find someone who can lead the sect to rise up here…" Wan Ye had been in the seventeen states of the Abyss North for a hundred years. During this period, he would secretly visit the seventeen states every three to five years to see if there were any descendants who could meet his requirements.

But things did not go according to his wishes. Over the past hundred years, there had not been anyone who could enter his eyes. "Forget it… I have no other choice."

Wan Ye said to himself, "Pick a younger generation who has the potential to advance to the dao realm… When he goes to State Wansheng, he will continue the sect. As for whether he can meet talents midway and take on the great responsibility of the sect, that will be up to fate."

Wan Ye sighed again.

"Oh yeah…"

After thinking about it, Wan Ye suddenly remembered that he was here to find a demon beast that had sneaked out.

'The place where Cyan's last breath disappeared is not far away. It last appeared there…'

Wan Ye looked in the direction of the Moon Gazing Sect.

After Xu Ning returned to the Moon Gazing Sect, he discovered that Yuan Yuan, Si Ying and others had imprisoned those disciples and interrogated them for some rough information.

"These people are from a small sect called the Jade Night Sect in State Wansheng."

Yuan Yuan said to Xu Ning, "They brought almost all of their elites to the seventeen states of the Abyss North. There are a total of six people, their Sect Master and elders, in the dao realm. In addition, there are nearly a hundred high level void realm disciples."

"This group of people was specially sent to State Jifeng to control a few important sects. However, the first target they faced was us, and they lost…"

Yuan Yuan chuckled. He was very happy.

But at the same time, there was an even greater pressure.

If the Sect Master and elders of the Jade Night Sect learned of this, they might send stronger disciples over here, or even dao realm masters.

Once that happened, the Moon Gazing Sect would definitely be unable to resist.

Such a powerful force is only considered a small sect in State Wansheng…'

Even Xu Ning was a little speechless.

Xu Ning was also a little worried about what Yuan Yuan was worried about.

Although he was strong, he definitely had no chance of winning against a dao realm master.

Thinking up to this point, Xu Ning planned to write a letter and let Little Gray personally bring it back to Mi Xingye for Mi Xingye to decide on the follow-up of this matter.

"What else?"

Xu Ning asked. Afterwards, Yuan Yuan told Xu Ning the information he had obtained from the other disciples.

However, this information was just minor details. It was completely useless other than to complete the details of the other party.

'What a shame. If I could have kept that Senior Brother Mo here, I would definitely be able to force out more information.'

Xu Ning felt a little regretful.

Senior Brother Mo was a core disciple of the Jade Night Sect, so he definitely knew more than these ordinary disciples. "I hope Sect Master Yuan can continue to work hard and see if you can obtain more useful information."

Xu Ning got up and said to Yuan Yuan.

"Okay."

Yuan Yuan responded.

Afterwards, Xu Ning left Yuan Yuan and returned to his villa.

'So quiet?' Xu Ning walked to the entrance of his villa and found that there was no sound coming from inside the villa.

In the past, whenever he approached the villa, Gray and Little Gray would welcome him.

"Huh?!"

When Xu Ning walked into the villa, he suddenly noticed that Little Gray was trembling

As for Gray, it was held by the neck and examined by an old man.

Surprisingly, Gray, who had a proud temperament, did not resist at all.

"You…"

Just like Senior Brother Mo, a shocking thought suddenly appeared in Xu Ning's mind. "This old man is a dao realm master!

Xu Ning's senses told him that there was no one where the old man was standing.

But the old man was in front of Xu Ning's eyes.

With Xu Ning's current strength, only a dao realm master could avoid his perception.

"Hu…"

Xu Ning took a deep breath. He was extremely nervous.

He thought quickly.

'Could it be that Senior Brother Mo brought reinforcements so quickly? No, it can't be this fast…

Xu Ning rejected this idea and made another guess. 'Could this person be the owner of the cyan wolf demon beast?'

Thinking about this, Xu Ning's heart skipped a beat. He felt that this was most likely the case.

Xu Ning suddenly felt that he had been too careless. A dao realm master might have a unique tracking technique. Although the cyan wolf demon beast had been stuffed into the Demon Beast Scroll to isolate its aura, the residual aura outside of the Demon Beast Scroll should have been tracked.

'I'm in trouble!'

Xu Ning didn't know what to do.

At this point, he could only listen to the wishes of a dao realm master.

"Senior."

Xu Ning bowed to the old man.

This old man was naturally Wan Ye.

When Wan Ye heard Xu Ning's voice, he ignored him and continued to look at Gray with great interest.

Xu Ning didn't dare to make a sound and just stood still.

He didn't even dare to escape.

"Huh?"

After putting Gray down, Wan Ye turned his head and glanced at Xu Ning. "So young?"

Wan Ye shifted his interest from Gray to Xu

Ning.

When Xu Ning came in just now, he only noticed that a half-step dao realm master was approaching. Only after turning his head and seeing Xu Ning's face, did he notice that the person was so young.

Swoosh!

Wan Ye turned into a shadow and immediately came to Xu Ning's side.

He placed his hand on Xu Ning's shoulder and touched his arm.

"Late twenties!"

Wan Ye was overjoyed. Afterwards, he separated a wisp of qi and rotated it in Xu Ning's body.

"A dual attribute martial artist that has condensed six attribute seeds!"

Wan Ye suddenly laughed out loud. "The mountains and rivers are reborn, the flowers are shining in the dark!"

Xu Ning was a little confused by Wan Ye's exaggerated behavior.

He was worried that Wan Ye would hurt him and interrogate him about the whereabouts of the cyan wolf. He didn't expect that after testing him, he would laugh like a crazy person.

"Kid, what is your name, and where are you from?"

Wan Ye stared at Xu Ning with shining eyes. "Senior, my name is Xu Ning, and I am from the Yuelan Sect."

Xu Ning didn't know why Wan Ye was acting like this, so he could only answer truthfully.

"Yuelan Sect?"

Wan Ye thought for a moment. "I only remember that there is a He Mingye from the Yuelan Sect. When did you appear?"

Every three to five years, Wan Ye would check on the geniuses from the seventeen states of the Abyss North. He had also paid attention to He Mingye in the past.

"I entered the Yuelan Sect two years ago."

Xu Ning replied. "When did you come into contact with martial arts?"

Wan Ye asked again.

Xu Ning paused. "I began to practice internal skills three years ago."

"Three years ago?!" Wan Ye was stunned. "Don't lie to me!" "I wouldn't dare. What I said is the truth."

Xu Ning responded.

Wan Ye stared at Xu Ning carefully and confirmed that Xu Ning was not lying.

Wan Ye's smile then began to show as he couldn't control it anymore.

"Are you from a big family?"

Wan Ye asked again.

But after asking, Wan Ye felt that his question was meaningless.

There were no big families in the seventeen states of the Abyss North.

Even if this young man came from a family here, the family would not be able to give him the top resources like in State Wansheng.

He had asked unnecessarily.

Chapter 218 Cyan, Request

"Senior, I am not from a big family."

However, Xu Ning's next sentence exceeded Wan Ye's expectations.

"I grew up in a village in Kangyun County in State Feiyun."

Xu Ning added.

"Kangyun County in State Feiyun…"

Although Wan Ye didn't know exactly where Kangyun County was, he was certain that it must be a small place that he had never paid attention to before.

"To have such achievements with such a background, how rare, how rare!"

Wan Ye was very satisfied with Xu Ning. He basically had already recognized Xu Ning as the successor of his sect. However, Wan Ye did not say his true thoughts immediately.

If he expressed it too eagerly, Xu Ning might be suspicious of his intentions, which would be the opposite of what he wanted. Xu Ning also noticed Wan Ye's abnormality.

'This dao realm master seems to be satisfied with my aptitude…'

Xu Ning could feel Wan Ye's excitement.

Xu Ning noticed from Wan Ye's eyes that he seemed to have some kind of expectation for him.

"Xu Ning…"

Wan Ye calmed down and decided to build a good relationship with Xu Ning first. "Senior…"

Xu Ning listened carefully.

"If I'm not wrong, this little thing should be a void beast, right?"

Wan Ye glanced at Gray and chatted with Xu Ning.

"Senior is right, it is a void beast."

Xu Ning did not hide anything.

After escaping from Wan Ye, Gray carefully hid behind Xu Ning. It looked at Wan Ye with a timid look in its eyes.

"Void beast…"

Wan Ye was speechless. "A void beast with such a pure bloodline is rare even in State Wansheng… It is indeed very rare to see one in State Jifeng."

Xu Ning smiled and did not respond.

"By the way, I came here to find my demon beast."

Wan Ye suddenly said.

Xu Ning was shocked when he heard that.

Gray, who was hiding at Xu Ning's feet, trembled.

'Sure enough, this dao realm master is here to find the cyan wolf demon beast…'

Xu Ning glanced at Gray, looking worried.

Gray's reaction just now was obviously abnormal, and it was caught by the old man. This directly showed that the loss of his demon beast was related to the two.

Even if he didn't interrogate Gray and him, he could ask the others in the Moon Gazing Sect. It was almost impossible to hide the matter of him subduing the cyan wolf demon beast. "The last place it disappeared was in this villa…"

Wan Ye added, "But although its aura has disappeared, I am certain that it is still alive. If I'm not wrong, you must have used some methods to hide it. Now, let it out…"

"This…"

Facing Wan Ye, Xu Ning didn't know whether to tell the truth.

When the other party said this, his tone was firm. If he continued to deny it, he might be angered.

But if he released the cyan wolf demon beast, the secret of the Demon Beast Scroll would inevitably be exposed.

"What? Are you worried?"

Wan Ye chuckled. "Don't worry, I know Cyan's character. After it escaped from me, it must have caused trouble. As long as you didn't kill it, I will definitely not punish you."

Xu Ning looked hesitant.

Although he was not completely certain, Xu Ning felt that the old man in front of him did not have any murderous intent.

If he really wanted to punish Gray and him, there was no need to be so friendly. As a dao realm master, he had many methods to deal with him. "Gray."

After a second, Xu Ning made a decision. He gently kicked Gray.

"Let the cyan wolf out…"

Xu Ning said to Gray softly. "Oh?"

Wan Ye looked at Gray. At first, he thought that Xu Ning had used a technique to hide the cyan wolf demon beast, but now it seemed that it was the void beast.

Gray obeyed Xu Ning's orders.

It activated its bloodline power and threw the cyan wolf demon beast out of the Demon Beast Scroll.

When the cyan wolf demon beast was thrown out, its head hit the ground first.

It quickly got up and found that it had been released from the Demon Beast Scroll.

The cyan wolf demon beast was extremely excited when it saw Wan Ye. "Master, you really came to save me!"

The cyan wolf demon beast shook its tail and leaned towards Wan Ye.

"I almost couldn't see you anymore!" The cyan wolf demon beast quickly cried. It turned its head and looked at Xu Ning and Gray with a smug and vengeful look in its eyes. "Not only did this human and beast beat me up, but they also locked me in an independent space. I suffered a lot…"

"Cyan, you fled without permission, and you still have the face to call me master?"

Wan Ye's face turned serious. "If you didn't provoke others, why would they attack you and imprison you?"

The cyan wolf named Cyan looked up at Wan Ye with a frozen expression.

Wan Ye actually scolded it instead?

This was not what it had expected.

"I have told you repeatedly not to play around and indulge your bloodline beast nature. If your beast nature activates, you will completely lose control yourself and become a murderous demon beast. If that happens, even if others don't mind, I will personally kill you."

There was a hint of murderous intent in Wan Ye's words.

Cyan lowered its head and pretended to be depressed After Xu Ning heard this, he thought of the terrifying murderous aura in the cyan wolf will apparition and the bloody fog released by the cyan wolf demon beast.

Judging from these methods, this cyan wolf was indeed bloodthirsty in nature.

"Lie down." Wan Ye said to Cyan coldly, "I will decide how to punish you later."

Cyan wanted to beg, but after seeing Wan Ye's expression, he quickly stood aside. "Xu Ning, you have spent a lot of effort looking after Cyan for me."

Wan Ye stroked his beard.

Xu Ning was taken aback, then said, "Senior, you're too kind…"

As he said that, Xu Ning was thinking. The dao realm master in front of him was not dissatisfied with him imprisoning the cyan wolf demon beast. He even showed him kindness.

Moreover, he did not ask about Gray's method of imprisoning and releasing the cyan wolf demon beast, nor did he show any intention of offending them.

"I almost forgot…"

Wan Ye slapped his forehead. "I don't seem to have told you my identity yet."

"My name is Wan Ye, and everyone outside calls me Old Man Wan Ye."

Wan Ye revealed his identity.

"Old Man Wan Ye?"

Xu Ning was surprised.

Old Man Wan Ye was one of the reasons why the Jade Night Sect came to State Wansheng.

And now he appeared in front of him

"You are a disciple of the Yuelan Sect, so you should also know that the group of people from State Wansheng who came here are searching for my whereabouts."

Wan Ye said.

Xu Ning nodded. "I know."

"But do you know why they are looking for me?"

Wan Ye asked.

"They wish to obtain something called a sect token…"

Xu Ning said tentatively.

Xu Ning had heard Mi Xingye and Qiu Renshan mention this when he was still in the sect.

However, Xu Ning didn't know what a sect token was.

"Yes, they came here for a sect token."

Wan Ye admitted.

"A sect token? What is it?"

Although Xu Ning didn't know why Wan Ye took the initiative to mention this, he listened carefully.

"Almost every state in the seventeen states of the Abyss North is extremely scattered, and it is difficult to form a monopoly. Even the Source Sect of State Feiyun can only lead some parties. It is impossible to achieve absolute control."

Wan Ye said, "But it is different in State Wansheng. State Wansheng is ruled by a dynasty, and the Imperial Court rules everything."

"State Wansheng is ruled by a dynasty?"

Xu Ning didn't expect this.

In Xu Ning's opinion, in a place like State Wansheng, where there were many strong people, the forces should be more scattered. He didn't expect for an Imperial Court to control everything. Building a dynasty in the martial arts world was extremely difficult.

Not only did one have to have the strength to crush all parties, but one also had to ensure that there would be super martial arts geniuses appearing from generation to generation among the younger generation.

Once their martial arts geniuses could not keep up, the dynasty would suffer pressure from all sides, and it might even collapse.

"Yes, there is a grandmaster in the imperial family."

Afraid that Xu Ning didn't understand, Wan Ye explained, "A grandmaster is an unfathomable realm above the dao realm."

"Above the dao realm…"

Xu Ning's heart was beating fast.

This was still too far away for Xu Ning.

But now that he had heard this, he began to look forward to it.

"And sect tokens are issued by the Imperial Court for the official status of a sect to be recognized."

Wan Ye said, "Only by holding a sect token can you enjoy the protection of the Imperial Court, recruit disciples without any restrictions, and expand your power. While those sects without a sect token and without the recognition of the Imperial Court can only grab resources in the chaotic martial arts environment."

"Is that so…"

Although Xu Ning hadn't personally experienced the benefits of having a sect token, after hearing what Wan Ye said, this sect token was definitely a rare treasure.

"There are only two ways to obtain a sect token."

Wan Ye continued, "Either you reach the seventh stage of the dao realm and take the initiative to apply to the Imperial Court. And once the Imperial Court audits it, they will issue a sect token."

"Or you have to take the sect token from a declining official sect and replace its official sect status…"

Until here, Wan Ye revealed a look of helplessness in his eyes.

Xu Ning noticed this.

Instantly, he had a guess.

This Old Man Wan Ye was likely the successor of a declining sect.

He brought this sect token from State Wansheng to the seventeen states of the Abyss North.

And after the people of the Jade Night Sect heard this news, they came to find him, wanting to snatch the sect token and obtain the status of an official sect.

Sure enough, Wan Ye explained further.

His explanation was basically the same as Xu Ning had guessed.

"Now that my sect token is in my hands, if I can't find a suitable successor, my sect can only be destroyed…"

Wan Ye then stared at Xu Ning with hope in his eyes. He asked Xu Ning with a sincere attitude, "Xu Ning, are you willing to help me rebuild my sect?"

Report chapter

Chapter 219 Swallow Heron Sect

"You want me to rebuild your sect for you?"

Although Wan Ye's previous attitude made Xu Ning realize that he held some expectations for him.

But Xu Ning still felt that this was ridiculous.

"Senior Wan Ye, you are thinking too highly of me…"

Xu Ning refused without hesitation.

His current strength was not even in the dao realm.

Even if he advanced to the dao realm and went to State Wansheng, it would be too difficult to rebuild a declining sect bare-handed.

For him, this was not a good thing. "It's not that I think highly of you, but with your talent, you can definitely become the foundation of a sect in State Wansheng." Wan Ye persuaded, "Only core disciples of top sects and the princes and princesses of the royal family can condense six attribute seeds in their twenties. Moreover, they are all built on countless resources. If they were in your environment, they might not be able to do better than you."

"But Senior Wan Ye, I am now a member of the Yuelan Sect, it is inappropriate to join another sect."

Xu Ning gave another reason to refuse.

Wan Ye laughed when he heard this.

"You don't need to worry about that at all."

Wan Ye said, "When you go to State Wansheng, you will know that it is very common to enter a sect for the second time. Some top geniuses are not normally discovered at the beginning, so they would be relegated to enter some small sects. But once their talents are fully displayed and the small sects can no longer accommodate them, they will leave."

"Moreover, those small sects that they have stayed in previously will also be very supportive. Because once those geniuses gain a foothold in a large sect and become big shots, they will become their backers."

Wan Ye said earnestly, "You may not have experienced this in the seventeen states of the Abyss North, but when you arrive in State Wansheng, you will find that this is very normal."

"Young geniuses from outside of State Wansheng are all the same when they come to State Wansheng. Geniuses flow into State Wansheng every year. They entered sects on their own, but in order to pursue a higher level of martial arts, they would change sects after reaching State Wansheng."

Wan Ye tried his best to persuade Xu Ning. "If you really have concerns, you can ask your sect master. He will definitely support you in this."

"This…"

After Wan Ye said this, Xu Ning looked troubled.

He saw Wan Ye's sincerity, but this might not be a good thing for him.

"Xu Ning, do you think of this responsibility as a shackle?"

Wan Ye noticed Xu Ning's thoughts.

"That's right."

Xu Ning did not hide anything. "State Wansheng is definitely full of challenges, and I don't have any confidence that I can rebuild a powerful sect there."

"Don't worry." Wan Ye continued to persuade, "Although the sect is in decline, talents are everywhere. If you can go to State Wansheng, there will naturally be resources to help you rebuild the sect."

"Before the previous sect master died, he hid all the treasures of the sect. As long as you agree to accept this sect token, you will naturally inherit all of them. After inheriting those treasures, you can definitely recruit disciples and gather the people's hearts."

"Moreover, there are tons of resources in the sect that can help your cultivation. With these resources, your cultivation speed will be extremely fast. Isn't it better to control the resources of an official sect than to be a core disciple of a large sect?"

There was even a hint of temptation in Wan Ye's tone.

'Tons of resources…'

After hearing Wan Ye's words, Xu Ning was really tempted.

For Xu Ning, resources were energy points, and energy points were the foundation of his martial arts.

After advancing to the dao realm, it was inevitable that he would go to State Wansheng.

If he accepted it, once he arrived there, he would immediately have resources to support him, which would make his life much easier.

"How is it? Are you willing to accept my sect token?"

Wan Ye saw Xu Ning was moved and quickly asked.

"Senior Wan Ye, please let me think about it."

In fact, Xu Ning was already leaning towards accepting the sect token, but this matter was too important. He still needed time to think carefully, weigh the pros and cons, and consider some details.

"Sure."

Wan Ye knew that he couldn't force Xu Ning.

Only after careful consideration could he make a decision to firmly rebuild his sect.

Otherwise, if he agreed on impulse, he would hesitate in the future.

"By the way, Senior Wan Ye, what is the name of the sect you mentioned?"

Since he was already moved, Xu Ning wanted to know more.

Wan Ye smiled. "Our sect is called the Swallow Heron Sect."

"The Swallow Heron Sect…"

Xu Ning whispered and slowly nodded.

Rebuilding the Swallow Heron Sect was likely to become an important challenge for him.

"Senior Wan Ye, according to what you said, the Heron Swallow Sect is an official sect and is protected by the Imperial Court, but why did it still decline?"

Xu Ning wanted to know more.

After hearing Xu Ning's question, Wan Ye sighed.

"Sit down and talk."

Wan Ye sat on a stone bench in the courtyard.

Xu Ning followed him and poured a cup of tea for Wan Ye before sitting on the side.

As for Gray, it curled up in the corner, as if this would give it a sense of security.

When Cyan, who was leaning against the wall, saw Gray approaching, it bared its teeth and showed a fierce expression, as if it was provoking Gray.

Gray ignored this.

"It is true that the Imperial Court protects official sects, but it only protects official sects from the harm and invasion of those unofficial sects. But regarding the competition between official sects, except for plundering and slaughtering, they do not concern themselves with anything else. State Wansheng is essentially a martial arts world where the strong prey on the weak. But because of the intervention of the Imperial Court, the competition is relatively gentler, and there is not too much bloodshed."

Wan Ye took a sip of tea and continued, "Although compared to those unofficial sects, the way for official sects to obtain resources is relatively stable. As long as they don't provoke trouble, they can ensure the continuation of their sect. However, if you want to further develop and expand the benefits of your sect, you can only take risks."

"And the decline of the Swallow Heron Sect was because of this."

"I was an elder of the Swallow Heron Sect. The previous sect master, which is my senior brother, wanted to obtain more resources and gather more talents. Thus, he took the initiative to break into the resource circles of those unofficial sects and compete fiercely with them. Moreover, at the same time, the competition between our sect and other official sects did not stop."

"In this aggressive environment, Senior Brother couldn't control the situation. After making a wrong decision, he offended a princess of the royal family and was suppressed. Then, under the joint attack of an official sect and an unofficial sect, the Swallow Heron Sect collapsed."

This seemed to trigger Wan Ye's most painful memory. He only talked about the general situation with not too much detail.

"In that incident, more than half of the core disciples in the sect were killed or injured, and the high-level combat power of the sect was dealt a devastating blow. Faced with sects who wanted to completely devour the Swallow Heron Sect, the Sect Master had no choice but to disperse the Swallow Heron Sect and hide the resources left behind by the sect. He knew that he had let down the seniors of the sect, so he took revenge alone and died in the end."

Wan Ye stopped.

After a long time, he said, "When we dispersed the Swallow Heron Sect, Senior Brother gave me the sect token. However, he did not leave behind any instructions. Perhaps he also felt that there was no hope of rebuilding the sect…"

"But I still held the hope, so in order to avoid people with ulterior motives, I hid in the seventeen states of the Abyss North and concealed my identity, hoping to find a suitable successor, but it has been fruitless so far. Now that a hundred years have passed, the storm in State Wansheng has basically been quelled. There may not be many people who still remember the Swallow Heron Sect."

"Although it is sad, this is also an opportunity… At least when we rebuild the sect, our enemies will no longer notice us, giving us plenty of opportunities and time to rebuild…"

Wan Ye said a lot.

Xu Ning felt that when Wan Ye explained to him, it was actually a form of confession.

According to what Wan Ye said, it had been a hundred years since he left State Wansheng and arrived at the seventeen states of the Abyss North

In that period, he definitely couldn't tell anyone about this. Xu Ning might be the first person to have heard his story.

"Senior Wan Ye…"

Xu Ning asked another question in his mind. "Since you have always wanted to rebuild the sect, why don't you do it yourself? Why do you need to find a successor?"

Wan Ye shook his head. "I can't."

"You can't?"

Xu Ning raised his eyebrows.

"When I was chased into the Endless Sea Abyss by my opponent at that time, I was seriously injured and my realm fell. Now, my body is completely exhausted, and I am about to reach the end of my life at any time now."

Wan Ye's words were bleak, but he was relatively calm.

He seemed to have thought this through.

"Moreover, even if I rebuild the sect, the others who were dismissed back then will not listen to my call to gather again. At the same time, it will be difficult to recruit new disciples because everyone knows where my upper limit is. They all know that if they follow me, they will definitely not be able to rebuild a powerful sect, and they might even be seriously injured again."

"But you are different… You are young and have great potential. When you arrive in State Wansheng, you can mainly improve your strength and rebuild the sect on a small scale. When you completely mature, you can take the initiative to attack and intimidate everyone. If you can advance to the high level of the dao realm, not only will you be able to rebuild the sect, but you can also let the Swallow Heron Sect return to its former glory."

Wan Ye's calm eyes were lit ablaze again.

Xu Ning could feel Wan Ye's strong desire and persistence to rebuild the Swallow Heron Sect.

Chapter 220 Golden-Eyed Demon Ape

"Xu Ning, I hope you can lead the Swallow Heron Sect back to its peak." Wan Ye had high expectations for Xu Ning. He felt that if Xu Ning grew in such a prosperous environment like in State Wansheng, it was highly likely for him to advance to the high level of the dao realm in the future.

"Senior Wan Ye, this matter has to wait until the people from the Jade Night Sect retreat and after I advance to the dao realm."

Xu Ning said, "Otherwise, I won't leave here and go to State Wansheng."

Wan Ye pondered for a moment. "Even if the entire seventeen states of the Abyss North join forces, they may not be the opponent of the Jade Night Sect."

"Just now, I subdue a Jade Night Sect disciple in a desolate mountain outside the Moon Gazing Sect and obtained some information from him."

Wan Ye continued, "There are a total of six dao realm masters from the Jade Night Sect who came to the seventeen states of the Abyss North. Five of them are in the first stage of the dao realm, and one is in the second stage of the dao realm. In the dao realm, the difference in strength between realms is huge. Even a half-step dao realm master who forcibly breaks through is still not a match for the people of the Jade Night Sect."

"It is not easy to completely expel them from the seventeen states of the Abyss North."

"Is that so…"

Xu Ning could sense that Wan Ye was not optimistic about solving the problem of the Jade Night Sect.

Xu Ning also realized a problem. Senior Brother Mo had escaped from his hands, but was captured by Wan Ye.

He had learned from the disciples of the Moon Gazing Sect that the batch of disciples with Senior Brother Mo was the only batch of disciples in State Jifeng, so the disciple subdued by Wan Ye was definitely Senior Brother Mo.

"Senior, how did you deal with that disciple of the Jade Night Sect?"

Xu Ning asked.

"I finished him off."

Wan Ye said, "If I let him go, my whereabouts will be exposed. Once it is exposed, the dao realm masters of the Jade Night Sect will definitely come for me."

"Is that so…"

Xu Ning understood.

In this case, the disciples of the Jade Night Sect who came to State Jifeng were either killed or captured. Not only did they not complete their mission, but they all died here.

"However, although it is difficult to expel the people from the Jade Night Sect, there is still a chance to help you advance to the dao realm."

Suddenly, Wan Ye changed the topic.

"Help me break through to the dao realm?"

Xu Ning was taken aback.

"That's right."

Wan Ye nodded. "According to my observations, you are only one step away from advancing to the dao realm. With the help of more resources, it should not be difficult for you to advance to the dao realm."

"This…"

Xu Ning knew that what Wan Ye said actually came with a condition.

Once he accepted it, he would have to accept the sect token and go to State Wansheng to rebuild the Swallow Heron Sect.

However, Xu Ning was not against accepting the sect token. As long as he had resources, everything was negotiable. "Senior, what are the resources you mentioned?"

Xu Ning asked this to show his attitude. For him, advancing to the dao realm was his top priority.

Wan Ye smiled when he heard this.

"You will know when the time comes."

Wan Ye said, "However, the resources are not in my hands right now, nor are they on the land of the seventeen states of the Abyss North. They are on an island next to the seventeen states of the Abyss North, in the Endless Sea."

"In the Endless Sea…"

The land where the seventeen states of the Abyss North were located was surrounded by the Endless Sea.

The barrier between State Wansheng and the seventeen states of the Abyss North was called the Endless Sea Abyss.

Xu Ning had not even visited the whole seventeen states of the Abyss North yet, so the Endless Sea was too far away for him.

"If you want to, I will take you there now."

Wan Ye was firm.

Xu Ning was silent for a moment before finally nodding

Wan Ye definitely had no ill intentions when taking him away, otherwise it would just be easier to kidnap him. "However, Senior Wan Ye, I have to deal with some matters first."

If he wanted to leave, he had to inform Yuan Yuan and the others in advance, then write a letter and send it to Mi Xingye to explain the situation.

"Okay."

Wan Ye agreed.

Afterwards, Xu Ning left the villa and told Yuan Yuan and Si Ying that he was leaving the Moon Gazing Sect.

Although the two were surprised, they did not stop him. Xu Ning could tell that they had some concerns after knowing that he was leaving.

After all, without Xu Ning, the Moon Gazing Sect would be vulnerable in front of those people from the Jade Night Sect.

Xu Ning noticed this and told them that after leaving this time, he would write a letter to the Yuelan Sect and ask them to send other powerhouses to oversee the Moon Gazing Sect. Moreover, he would also leave Gray behind.

These words made the two feel relieved.

Afterwards, Xu Ning recorded the information about the Jade Night Sect in a letter and asked someone to send it back.

At the same time, Xu Ning explained in the letter that he was going to find a dao realm opportunity. However, he did not mention Wan Ye. It was better not to expose the matter of Wan Ye just yet.

Otherwise, once it was leaked, things would become troublesome.

Before leaving, Xu Ning exhorted Gray to not be careless. If it encountered any risks that it couldn't solve, it could enter the Demon Beast Scroll or seek Xu Hujun's help.

After giving his instructions, Xu Ning followed Wan Ye to the east.

The waves surged and lightning covered the sky.

A hundred miles away from the coastline, there were no signs of life. 'Is this the Endless Sea…'

Xu Ning looked at the scene in front of him and noticed the dangers in the ocean.

"In the Endless Sea, danger is everywhere, and there are countless sea demon beasts. Therefore, it is impossible to cross the Endless Sea Abyss and go to State Wansheng without a dao realm expert. Even a dao realm first stage body smelting realm master may not be able to cross the Endless Sea Abyss safely. Only a dao realm second stage astral qi realm master has a 90% chance of safely passing through."

Wan Ye explained to Xu Ning. "The island I plan to take you to is the resting place of a dao realm demon beast, the golden-eyed demon ape." Wan Ye said.

"A dao realm demon beast, the golden-eyed demon ape…"

Xu Ning had never seen a true dao realm demon beast before.

"That's right, when I secretly fled from State Wansheng to the seventeen states of the Abyss North, I met with the golden-eyed demon ape on the way. At that time, it was in danger, and I helped it. In return, it wanted to give me the pool of Demon Ape Wine it had brewed for a hundred years."

"The Demon Ape Wine is made from countless rare spirit fruits, coupled with a special brewing environment. The strong medicinal properties contained in it are extremely beneficial to a dao realm elementary stage master."

"However, I was seriously injured at that time. I knew that even if I drank this Demon Ape Wine, it would be useless, so I refused. When the golden-eyed demon ape saw this, it told me that after a hundred years, it would let me bring my younger disciples to come again and take the newly brewed Demon Ape Wine."

"At that time, I agreed. After all, according to my plan, I should be able to find a successor during this period of time. However, the appointed time is approaching, yet I found no one. Fortunately, I waited long enough until I found you at the last moment."

Wan Ye looked at Xu Ning with admiration.

Xu Ning had already expressed his wish to take over the sect token. In his opinion, Xu Ning was already the descendant of the Swallow Heron Sect. "Demon Ape Wine? I want to drink it too!"

The cyan wolf, Cyan, next to the two also leaned its head over.

Cyan had been following them.

During the journey, Xu Ning learned from his conversation with Wan Ye that if he went to State Wansheng in the future, Cyan would follow him and become his help.

However, the conflict between the two had not been completely resolved. Cyan was still angry at Xu Ning for beating it up and imprisoning it.

"When we get there, I'll let you try a few sips."

Wan Ye smiled at Cyan.

Afterwards, he walked to the shore, and with a wave of his sleeve, a small boat appeared in front of him.

The small boat was silver in color, and there were glowing lines on the surface of the boat. Xu Ning checked it and found out that it was a dao weapon.

"Go, get on the ship."

Wan Ye took the lead to walk forward, followed by Xu Ning and Cyan. When Xu Ning sat on the ship, he felt an invisible barrier blocking the waves. "Only certain specialized ships can sail in the Endless Sea, otherwise the possibility of capsizing is high."

Wan Ye didn't use a paddle. He just controlled the ship and sailed in the Endless Sea.

Xu Ning felt endless waves coming towards him. It felt as though the small boat was about to be capsized at any time.

Xu Ning also saw many giant figures swimming in the deep sea, but after sensing the aura of a dao realm master, they retreated. 'If it weren't for Senior Wan Ye, I might have already entered the stomachs of these deep sea demon beasts…'

Although Xu Ning was strong, if he was against a large number of high level void realm demon beasts in the sea, he would definitely die on the spot.

Boom!

Suddenly, lightning crackled in the dark clouds above the ship, making it seem like daytime.

This terrifying atmosphere made Xu Ning realize how small he was in the Endless Sea.

"In the Endless Sea, don't rely on flying demon beasts, otherwise you will definitely die from lightning strikes." Wan Ye reminded.

At this moment, Cyan was curled up in the corner of the cabin, trembling.

"It will take a few days to reach the island of the golden-eyed demon ape." Wan Ye said, "If you are bored, you can close your eyes and calm your mind."

Time slowly passed by.

On this day, the ship sailed to a calm place with no clouds in the sky.

"Clear sky region…"

As the sun shone on his body, Xu Ning felt a sense of warmth.

According to Wan Ye's experience in sailing the Endless Sea over the past few days, Xu Ning learned that not all places in the Endless Sea were covered with dark clouds. There were also clear places called the clear sky region.

If there happened to be land suitable for living under the clear sky region, it would form an island.

Some large islands were large enough to establish a human dynasty, but there were no large-scale islands near the abyss north.

"We are almost there!" Wan Ye said, "The island of the golden-eyed demon ape is under this clear sky region. It's not far from here."

Sure enough, Xu Ning soon saw a piece of land.

There were silhouettes of people coming and going on the island.

"Are they human?"

Xu Ning looked around. "They are not silhouettes of humans, they are apes!"
