“Lord Master ……” After Ning Cheng left, Liu Bi carefully went forward to greet him.
Xilin waved his hand at Liu Bei and kept frowning at Ning Cheng’s disappearing back. It was only after half a column of incense that he came back to his senses and said to Liu Bi, “You have done well this time and have not offended this person. Do you know where this Ning Cheng is from? Why do you want to deal with the Mou Family?”
Hearing Xilin’s appreciation, Liu Bei’s hanging heart finally dropped and he hurriedly said, “This person came here to check the surveillance images of my Ten Thousand Realms Auction for the last three years, and then retrieved the auction of the Innate Flame Avatar three years ago, which is why he said he wanted to destroy the Mou Family.”
“The Innate Flame Avatar?” Xilin understood after a mere puzzled sentence, “I know, it’s that Fishing Avatar, it was deliberately released by the Mou Family in order to find the Cause and Effect Avatar, you pull up that image and I’ll take a look.”
Liu Bi worked quickly and in no time he had that image engraved with a crystal ball again.
Xilin looked at the image twice before looking at Jiang Man’s figure in the image and said, “I still remember this person, he was the one who bid for the Cause Nirvana Flame divine Aptitude back then. However, those who bid for the Innate Flame Avatar do not necessarily possess the Innate Fruit Technique, and those who practice the Great and Small Immortal Technique and the Ten Thousand Wheel Bright Jade Technique can all practice this Avatar. The Mou Family has been a little too flamboyant in the Xuanhuang Outer Heaven, and this time they have finally pissed off a ruthless character.”
“Lord Chief, didn’t you just say that you told that Ning Cheng not to mess with the Mou Family?” Liu Bi asked in confusion.
Xilin sneered, “Would someone like Ning Cheng not mess with the Mou Family because of my persuasion? I’m just making a good karma.”
Liu Bi was instantly shocked, “Lord Chief, do you mean to say that Ning Cheng can really destroy the Mou Family? Has that Ning Cheng achieved perfection in merging with the Dao?”
Xilin pondered slightly for a moment before he said gruffly, “That’s what I’m puzzled about, that Ning Cheng’s Dao rhythm is slightly scattered, so he obviously hasn’t merged with the Dao. Why is his strength so strong? But even if he is a true Hybrid, he cannot be underestimated. Have you forgotten about the one in the Xuanhuang Outer Heaven? How did the original Lou family in the Xuanhuang Outer Heaven perish?”
Liu Bi shivered when he heard this. Back then, that one was still only in the middle stage of the Mixed Yuan and had come to the Xuanhuang Outer Heaven to do business in pills and magic treasures. As a result, he had provoked the Lou Family, one of the seven great powers in the Xuanhuang Outer Heaven, and the Lou Family was even ranked as one of the top three existences in the Xuanhuang Outer Heaven.
After the Lou Family destroyed that one’s Dan Pavilion, that one was furious and directly uprooted the Lou Family from the Xuanhuang Outer Heaven. When he fought with the Lou Family’s ancestor, he fought from the Xuanhuang Outer Heaven all the way to the Endless Void. The endless star protection prohibitions in the Xuanhuang Outer Heaven could not stop the two from fighting.
After several years had passed, that one returned to the Xuanhuang Outer Heaven alone, while the old ancestor of the Lou family was nowhere to be seen or heard from. Because of this battle, the supreme status of this one was established. But the people who knew about this incident were only some of the senior members of the seven great powers, those ordinary cultivators merely saw a new Dan Pavilion being destroyed and then built up again, and that was all.
After that, the Lou family’s power all disappeared and became that one’s territory, and the Seven Great Powers of the Xuanhuang Outer Heaven were thus replaced by one.
The only reassuring thing was that That One had no interest in the distribution of benefits at various gatherings. He never participated in those activities, but no one dared to touch the interests in his hands. Later on, the seven great powers of the Xuanhuang Outer Heaven simply became six, but despite this, no one dared to doubt the strength of this seventh foreign power.
Xilin said in a low tone, “That one’s strength was definitely only mid-mixed yuan back then, and the highest was only late mixed yuan, this is what my old ancestor of the Ten Thousand Realms Auction said. So being powerful doesn’t only depend on cultivation, in the future you should remember that. This Ning Cheng is very decisive in his actions, and is probably another existence no less than that one. If that’s really the case, I’m afraid that the Xuanhuang Heavenly Outer Heaven will be missing another family.”
“Lord Chief, isn’t it said that there is a heavenly difference between a merged dao and a mixed origin? Not to mention third-step powerhouses? Back then, if the old ancestor of the Lou family was really a third-step powerhouse, how could that Mixed Origin Saint Emperor be able to help him?” Liu Bi asked in confusion.
“I don’t know if there is a heavenly difference between a Hybrid and a Harmonious Dao, but the difference between a third-step powerhouse and a second-step Saint Emperor can be more than just a heavenly difference. It was a difference between quantity and quality, and once one crossed the third step, it was a power that could easily crush everything.” Xilin shook his head.
Although Liu Bi still wanted to ask, he did not dare to continue, it would not be good if he asked too much to displease the Lord-in-Charge.
Instead, Xi Lin took the initiative to say, “Once the quantity reaches a certain level, it is not necessarily worse than the quality. I remember that after that one had destroyed the Lou family, the six great powers of the Xuanhuang Outer Heaven invited this one to be a guest, and I was fortunate enough to attend that gathering. At that time, the Min family’s oldest ancestor asked that one what the chances were of winning against Hedao. In fact, what the Min family’s oldest ancestor meant beyond words was how a mixed element like you could deal with that Lou family’s oldest ancestor, and there was one sentence of what that one said that I still remember vividly to this day.”
“What words?” Liu Bi asked out in a hurry.
“He said that in my opinion there is actually no difference between most people’s mixed elements and their Hedao. The only difference is simply that they have reached a bottleneck in their cultivation to the Mixed Yuan realm and have to use external forces or external objects to fuse their own strength to form a solid Dao rhythm, called Harmony, and that’s all. That is all, it is not worth mentioning. Once you meet a true hybrid powerhouse, this kind of Dao Harmony is a piece of cake.” Xilin’s words were somewhat despondent, and it was obvious that he himself had merged with the Dao under such circumstances.
“Ah ……” Liu Bi gave a shocked ah, somewhat unsure of what he should do, he was now in the middle stage of mixed Yuan and was already thinking about how to merge his dao in the future.
Xilin did not care about Liu Bi’s shock and continued, “The Min family’s old ancestor was very uncomfortable and even asked, according to your Excellency, then the realm of merging with the Dao is superfluous? At that time, that person smiled lightly and said, “It is not necessarily true that it is superfluous. A real person who merges with the Dao is not one who merges with the help of external forces, external objects or even all external factors, but one who succeeds in merging with the Dao himself. All those present have passed through the realm of Dao Harmony, which one of them has succeeded in Dao Harmony by himself?”
“Self-merging?” Liu Bi suddenly thought of the weakest kind of merging dao.
Seok-rim nodded, “Yes, it is the self merging dao, in fact even now I have not figured out what that one meant by self merging dao. At that time, the old Min family ancestor laughed out loud, the self merging dao you are talking about is the weakest kind of merging dao, merging a false dao with one’s body, right? Young man, your strength is indeed very strong, but don’t speak too arrogantly, be careful of flashing your teeth. I am the one who merged the Dao with my body, didn’t I also cross the second step?
At that time, that person still smiled indifferently, you are the Min family’s oldest ancestor, right? You don’t need to provoke me with your words either. I will naturally say what I want to say, but I won’t say a word about what I don’t want to say even if you try hard. At that time, the Min family’s old ancestor was very embarrassed, he did say that on purpose to cause that one to make his words clear, but he didn’t expect that one to see it.”
“How impressive.” Liu Bi didn’t know whether to say that the Min family’s old ancestor was powerful or that one was powerful.
“It’s more than that.” Xilin said, “That one didn’t care about the Min Family Ancestor, and told the Min Family Ancestor to himself that your crossing the second step was merely a figment of your imagination, and in my opinion, this third step of yours is also extremely false, and you will only be in this position for the rest of your life.”
“That person said that the Min Family’s Old Ancestor’s Realm of Realm Creation was a fake?” Liu Bi was shocked, if the Min Family Ancestor’s Realm of Realm Creation was fake, then wouldn’t that mean that the Realm of Realm Creation of the rest of the great clans were all fake?
Xilin’s tone was even lower, “That’s right, what that one meant beyond words was that there were no true third-step powerhouses in the Xuanhuang Outer Heaven. All third-step powerhouses are fakes. At this time, the Min family’s old ancestor was truly angry, not quoting this one’s words. He stood up and said coldly, “I know you took out Lou Qianhe and won’t be afraid of a bad old man like me. But there is no need to speak so absolutely, this world is as vast as the sea of strong people, you are not the strongest one even if you are strong. I, Min Huxing, have at least crossed the Great Celestial Decline twice, even if it is the third time, I believe it is not far away.”
“What did that one say?” Liu Bi had long forgotten that he was still facing the Lord in charge.
Xilin also seemed to have forgotten that there was a huge difference in status between Liu Bi and him, “That one said with a heated smile, “You are wrong, you have not crossed two great celestial declines, but only two minor declines. Also, you don’t have to worry about the third celestial decay, because you will never have this chance to cross the decay again. After these words were spoken, the Min family’s old ancestor was furious. The one, however, continued, “The true celestial decay is not the five decays, but the three decays. The first decay is the decay of crossing to the true third step, which is the realm-making decay, and you are not qualified.”
“The celestial decay is not the five decays, but the three decays, how is this possible?” Liu Bi once again uttered in shock.
Xilin sighed and said, “All the people did not take that one’s words to heart, the Decline of the Celestial has always been five declines throughout history, when did it become three declines? But it is clear to me that most people have taken the words of the One to heart. As for the question of whether the celestial decay is a triple decay or a quintuple decay, I think it is better to speak on my own terms. For me, the Decline of the Heavenly Man is the Five Declines.”
……
“Brother Ning, do we really want to make a move against the Mou Family?” After walking out of the Ten Thousand Realms Auction, Mu Yue Ping still had some disbelief in her heart that Ning Cheng could even block a strong person of the Harmonious Dao.
Ning Cheng gave a hmph, then added, “Making a move is definitely necessary, not to mention that Brother Jiang was arrested by the Mou Family for my matter. Even if it’s not for my sake, with my friendship with Brother Jiang, I still have to take care of this matter.”
In her heart, Mu Yue Ping naturally wanted to save Jiang Man early, but she also knew that this matter was not trivial, and once something happened to Ning Cheng, she would feel even more guilty and uneasy in her heart.
“You should not think too much, if anything happens to me, I am afraid that you will also find it difficult to survive. I won’t do it now, before I do it, I will investigate clearly.” Ning Cheng could see what was in Mu Yue Ping’s mind and took the initiative to comfort her.
Mu Yueping immediately said, “I don’t care if I live or die.”
