Xi Jupan hurriedly added on the side, “Senior Ping Ding is right, the Heavenly Alliance Dao Tower has not been climbed by anyone for I don’t know how many years, and the amount of cosmic true marrow that has coalesced so far must be very large. Moreover, the City Lord of the Heavenly Alliance Star has also said that as long as one ascends beyond the ninth floor, he will give a supreme reward for each additional floor.”
“When a Saint Emperor merges with the Dao, or even crosses the third step, his fleshly body is very prone to collapse. And the Cosmic True Marrow is the supreme treasure that condenses the flesh body and prevents it and the Dao Rhythm from collapsing.” The old gas also said with emotion on the side.
As for the reward given by the Heavenly Alliance Star City Lord, he didn’t even put it to heart, if he could obtain a treasure like the Cosmic True Marrow, that little reward was really nothing.
Ning Cheng’s heart was moved and he subconsciously asked, “Wouldn’t the Cosmic Truth Marrow also be extremely useful when it comes to the Decline of Man?”
Luckily, Ning Cheng had said before that his memory of many things was vague, so now that Ning Cheng said that he didn’t know the usefulness of the Cosmic Truth Marrow, the three Old Gases didn’t care.
“Senior, I heard that the first three decays of the celestial beings, using the Cosmic True Marrow, can reduce the time and degree of decay. Not only does it have no half effect on cultivation, it will also enhance the bottom.” Xi Jupan explained from the side.
Ning Cheng nodded and did not continue to ask about the Cosmic True Marrow, but changed the subject for a moment, “Do you few know about the Five Tai Realms?”
“The junior knows that the Five Tai Realms are all realms around the Xuanhuang Outer Heaven. I heard that the Five Tai Realms are so shattered by the rules of heaven and earth due to the Great War of the Powerful that they are not even as good as the Void Realm of the Heavenly Outer Heavens anymore.” Jin Yang Mu Wu, who had not spoken all along, replied back.
Ning Cheng sighed in his heart, this 10,000 years of seclusion was really not as good as walking around outside for 10,000 years. Jin Yang Mu Wu’s cultivation level was only half-step mixed element, and he knew more than he did.
“Where are the two of you planning to go?” Ning Cheng looked at Jin Yang Mu Wu and Xi Jiu Pan and asked again.
Xi Jupan carefully replied, “We are just trying out in the Void and had planned to go to the Heavenly Alliance Star. Now, senior is willing to lead the way to whatever place senior wants to go.”
“In that case, then let’s go to the Heavenly Alliance Star.” Ning Cheng finished speaking and swept his gaze towards the old gas.
Old Gas did not even wait for Ning Cheng to say anything more before he hurriedly said, “Senior will also go to the Heavenly Alliance Star with senior.”
“That would be best, I still have some things to ask you.” Ning Cheng pretended to be profound and nodded his head.
According to Xi Jupan, the Heavenly Alliance Star was not very far away, even so, several people had walked for almost three months before they arrived outside a huge planet.
Before Ning Cheng and the few of them had even entered the Heavenly Alliance Star, Ning Cheng saw a vaguely tall tower in the middle of the distant planet, the top of which could not be seen at all.
Ning Cheng also sighed a little and said, “I don’t know who built this Heavenly Alliance Dao Tower, it actually has such precious things.”
“Senior ……,” Xi Jupan called out before saying respectfully, “Actually, the Heavenly Alliance Dao Tower was not built artificially, but existed here after the opening of the heavens and the earth. In fact, it was the Heavenly Alliance Dao Tower that existed first and then the Heavenly Alliance Star. The Heavenly Alliance Dao Tower has a solid dao rhythm and is complete with all kinds of rules. After standing in the void for a long time, a planet was formed under it, and this planet was the Heavenly Alliance Star.”
First there was the Dao Tower and then there was the Heavenly Alliance Star? Ning Cheng was even more shocked in his heart. This was as ridiculous as if he had heard that there was a certain building on Earth first before there was an Earth.
But even the most absurd things were normal in the endless void. This Heavenly Alliance Dao Tower could be condensing the rules of heaven and earth, and it was normal for it to condense into the Heavenly Alliance Star over countless years.
“Senior, the Heavenly Alliance Star City Lord, Yi Sa, is a half-step Realm Creation Realm powerhouse. Senior’s prestige is boundless, just, just ……” Before entering the Heavenly Alliance Star, Xi Jupan’s tone was somewhat stuttering and hesitant.
Knowing what he meant, Ning Cheng waved his hand and said, “Don’t worry about it, I’m not the kind of person who is unreasonable. Yi Sa is the City Lord here, I won’t offend him for no reason.”
Not to mention that Ning Cheng knew that he was not the reincarnation of the powerful person that Old Gas had imagined, even if he was, he would not be brainless enough to provoke a half-step Boundary Creation Realm powerhouse right now.
A half-step Boundary Creation Realm powerhouse should not be weaker than Yin Xingwen, or at least should be comparable. Ning Cheng believed that with his current strength, even if the other party wanted to deal with him, he could still walk away.
……
After entering the Heavenly Alliance Star, Ning Cheng finally understood why Xi Jupan had to say that the Heavenly Alliance Star was actually a city.
The outside of the Heavenly Alliance Star was protected by a star protection formation, and a tall tower that went straight up into the clouds was exceptionally conspicuous. There were no buildings around the tower, it was an empty and boundless square. In front of the tower, there was a pure white stone monument with eighteen intervals, each of which had some golden dots shaking. Ning Cheng noticed that these golden dots were all below the seventh level. The further down they went, the more dense they became.
There were no prohibitions on the square to isolate divine sense, and Ning Cheng’s divine sense swept across the square, and on the outskirts of the square were street after street that stretched out. It was as if these streets had no end, stretching for countless miles.
All of these streets were centred on the square and stretched out in all directions. Endless numbers of cultivators came and went in these streets, displaying an extreme level of popularity.
Sensing the powerful Heaven and Earth rules here, Ning Cheng secretly sighed that this was indeed a city with the Heavenly Alliance Dao Tower as its centre.
“Senior, this tall tower in front of me is the Heavenly Alliance Dao Tower. You see the stone monument in front of the Dao Tower, all that is shown on there are the active cultivators on each level. The higher up you go the fewer cultivators are active, and the highest one is only on the sixth level now.” Seeing Ning Cheng standing, Xi Jupan hurriedly explained on the side.
Ning Cheng nodded his head, “There are quite a few people here.”
Xi Jupan hurriedly said, “Yes, many cultivators have come to the Heavenly Alliance Star City because of the Heavenly Alliance Dao Tower. Anyone can enter the Heavenly Alliance Dao Tower, and anyone can feel the Dao Rhythm inside. Coupled with the perfect rules of heaven and earth here, it can be said that there is no better place to cultivate in the void than here.
As the few people were talking, a cacophony of voices suddenly erupted in front of the Heavenly Alliance Dao Tower.
Ning Cheng was about to ask about it when he heard someone cheer, “Ascended to the seventh floor, it’s really the seventh floor ……”
Ning Cheng’s gaze fell on the white stone tablet, and he indeed saw a wavering golden dot of light on the seventh level of the tablet.
The old gas grunted disdainfully, “It’s just the seventh floor in a district, what a fart to be happy about.”
Xi Jupan was somewhat scornful of the old gas, and he said somewhat cautiously after hearing the old gas’s words, “Senior has no idea, it cannot be compared to the past now. Nowadays, very few people can reach the top of the Heavenly Alliance Dao Tower, and even those who can reach the ninth floor are the strongest of the strong. There are already very few people who have made it to the seventh level, and for someone to have made it to the seventh level is indeed a remarkable thing.”
“Senior, junior one would like to visit the Heavenly Alliance Dao Tower, I don’t know ……” Xi Jupan really didn’t want to stand with perverts like Ning Cheng and Old Gas.
Ning Cheng had wanted to wait to avoid Old Gas to ask Xi Jupan about the origins of Old Gas. Now that Xi Jupan wanted to go to the Heavenly Alliance Dao Tower, he didn’t care and waved his hand and said, “You guys go ahead, I’ll look for you if there’s something.”
“Many thanks senior.” Xi Jupan hurriedly bowed to Ning Cheng and Old Gas, then led Jin Yang Mu Wu backwards and quickly left.
“Old Gas, tell us about your origins yourself, I’m too old to remember many things. Tell me clearly, like how you appeared in the Yixing Continent.” After the two Xi Jupan had left, Ning Cheng patted Old Gas on the shoulder and said with a heated laugh.
The old gas was slapped by Ning Cheng twice, causing cold sweat to break out on his back, but he did not dare to retort, so he could only say respectfully, “Back then, during the great battle, the late generation tried to pick up something, and ended up being blasted by the dao rhythm aftershocks. Luckily for me, after being blasted out of several realms, I fell asleep for countless years and finally awakened a trace of my divine soul. And because of senior’s residual benefit, junior was able to recover his cultivation.”
Ning Cheng snorted coldly, “Picking up one thing? I am afraid that the thing you picked up was that great cauldron, if it wasn’t for the benefits of that great cauldron, would you not have woken up even if you had fallen asleep for countless more years?”
The old gas was startled by Ning Cheng’s words and hurriedly bowed again, “Senior understands, it is indeed because of that Qiankun Cauldron that the junior survived. Although the Qiankun Cauldron is not bad, but in senior’s eyes, it is not worth mentioning at all, not worth mentioning ……”
Sure enough, Ning Cheng thought to himself, this old gas was not willing to show him the Qiankun Cauldron, so he thought that this big cauldron must be very extraordinary. He had no intention of snatching the Qiankun Cauldron, and after hearing the old gas’s words, he simply hummed, “Not worth mentioning? I see that it is well worth mentioning. My old man doesn’t covet this point of yours either, so tell my old man about the great battle back then.”
When the old gas heard Ning Cheng say that he did not want the Qiankun Cauldron, he was instantly relieved. He knew very well that even to a ruthless character like Ning Cheng, the Qiankun Cauldron was still a top treasure.
“I heard that back then, several Third Step Creation Powers fought for unknown reasons, resulting in that battle breaking countless realms, interfaces and star planets. Even the creation treasures were shattered, and several other creation treasures were blasted into the void and disappeared ……”
When Old Gas said this, Ning Cheng’s spirit lifted, Old Gas was talking about the Creation Wars. He did not expect that he had finally met someone related to the Creation War, this old gas could not be spared, he must ask about it.
The old gas did not pay attention to Ning Cheng’s change in expression and continued, “Those several great powers almost died together, not only did all kinds of fragments of creation treasures fly everywhere, even many innate magic treasures and later heavenly spiritual treasures flew everywhere in the void because of the great battle.
Later on, those few powerful people stopped fighting, but more powerful people were involved in the great battle. They fought for all kinds of magic treasures and grabbed all kinds of resources. This continuous war went on and on for countless thousands of years, only fighting to the point where the sky was dark and the sun and the moon were not shining. There was no telling how many people fell in it, and no telling how many planets and interfaces were shattered ……”
