The more Ning Cheng thought back on it, the clearer it became. Those two red rays of Qu Wujian just now carried the aura of the lotus petals of the Green Lotus of Creation, if those two red rays were made of the lotus petals of the Green Lotus of Creation, then everything would be clear.
Qu Wujian’s divine ability should contain yin and yang dao rhythms, but unfortunately, Qu Wujian’s magic treasure and his divine ability did not match.
Just how could Qu Wujian conceal the aura of the Green Lotus of Creation if he did not have the magic treasure of creation? Did he not allow this Green Lotus petal to escape and be retrieved by Xing Xi?
“Fellow Daoist Ning, you follow me, we only need a few days to reach that cave ruin.” Qu Wujian finished speaking and unfolded his body, walking unhindered as if it was a spacious avenue at the bottom of the Black Water.
Ning Cheng followed behind Qu Wujian and asked as if nothing had happened, “Fellow Daoist Qu, how many years have you been in this Blackwater Realm?”
Qu Wujian did not care and casually replied, “Tens of thousands of years, I have been searching for the Nirvana Dragon Scale Sand here.”
Ning Cheng was stunned, he thought that Qu Wujian had been here for a few decades at most. Hearing Qu Wujian say that he had been here for tens of thousands of years, Ning Cheng even forgot the purpose of his question and subconsciously said, “For tens of thousands of years, Daoist Qu should have collected a large amount of Nirvana Dragon Scale Sand a long time ago, right? Still care about a dozen pieces of Nirvana Dragon Scale Sand?”
Qu Wujian was slightly stunned, then he felt that there was indeed something wrong with his words, he laughed and said casually, “It was just luck that you found a Nirvana Dragon Scale Sand just now, do you think Nirvana Dragon Scale Sand is so easy to find? Sometimes you don’t always find one even after hundreds of years.”
Ning Cheng sensed that Qu Wujian’s words were somewhat false, so he did not point it out and said with slight admiration, “I have heard that it is not easy to stay in the Black Water Realm for a few years, Daoist Qu can stay for tens of thousands of years and still be safe and sound, that is really strong.”
Hearing Ning Cheng’s words, Qu Wujian had no choice but to say, “I have been here for tens of thousands of years and apart from healing my wounds, I am in seclusion. Rarely did I come out to look for Nirvana Dragon Scale Sand, which is why I didn’t get much and didn’t meet much danger.”
“Is that so?” Ning Cheng smiled heatedly, “Right, Fellow Daoist Qu, staying at the bottom of the Black Water of the Black Water Realm, is it possible to isolate all scents? Even the aura of powerful treasures can be isolated?”
When Qu Wu Jian heard these words from Ning Cheng, his heart shook slightly and he stopped to stare at Ning Cheng, “What exactly are you trying to say?”
“I don’t want to say anything, I just suddenly thought of one thing. If I am correct, you have refined that cave secret realm a long time ago, right? Tell me, what did you want to do when you tricked me into going there?” After Ning Cheng finished speaking, his hand opened and the Divine Gun of Creation once again fell into his hand.
He always felt that something was wrong, and after thinking that the Green Lotus of Creation had been refined by Qu Wu Jian and turned into two red rays, he finally knew what was wrong.
For something like the Green Lotus of Creation, Qu Wujian had a way to conceal it from Xing Xi. With this kind of skill, how could he not be able to open a cave after tens of thousands of years in the Black Water Realm? And for someone who could stay in the Black Water for tens of thousands of years, wouldn’t he care about a dozen pieces of Nedao Dragon Scale Sand?
Most importantly, Ning Cheng had also spent several days at the bottom of the Black Water and knew that this place was definitely not a place for cultivation. If one wanted to close down and sense the realm, it was a joke in this place. As for healing, this was likewise not a place for healing.
When Qu Wujian heard Ning Cheng’s words, two red lights wrapped around his hands once again, and killing intent suddenly filled the air.
Ning Cheng’s tone turned cold as he said, “I will accompany you if you want to fight, but since I could blast away the black water with one finger just now, I can also blast away the black water with one finger now. Of course there’s nothing to blasting away the black water, it’s just that after more times, do you think your magic treasure will be known to that woman?”
“Which woman?” Qu Wujian asked subconsciously.
Ning Cheng didn’t know if Qu Wujian really didn’t know about Xing Xi or if he faked not knowing, so he simply said, “That woman’s name is Xing Xi, and the magic treasure she possesses is called the Green Lotus of Creation. I couldn’t even last a single round in her hands. Qu Wujian, do you think that woman will let you go now that she knows where you are hiding? Those two red rays of yours can’t even sense that I can’t merge with your divine ability, can’t you fool that woman’s eyes?”
Qu Wujian had already made the worst plans in his heart, but he did not expect Ning Cheng to still nail it in one sentence. At this moment, he only had regret in his heart, if he could do it again, he would rather wait another ten thousand years than make a move against Ning Cheng.
He wanted to kill Ning Cheng, but he knew in his heart that it would be very difficult to kill Ning Cheng.
“Tell me, what do you want?” Qu Wujian finally decided to ask Ning Cheng’s asking price.
Ning Cheng said in a light voice, “If I’m not wrong, the ancient cave you found should be real.”
Ning Cheng was sure that he had not guessed wrongly, if it was fake, Qu Wujian would not dare to bring him to this place.
Qu Wujian nodded, “That’s right, that cave is indeed real, and I have been cultivating in that cave.”
At this moment, since Ning Cheng had figured out his plan, he naturally would not bring Ning Cheng to his cave anymore.
“I have two demands, firstly, give me half of the things in that cave. Second, you have to tell me why you want to backstab me, but we have no dealings with each other in general. Third, you must meet with me in the future, as for when, I am not sure yet.” Ning Cheng finished his request and quietly waited for Qu Wu Jian to answer.
“Why must you meet me in the future?” Qu Wujian frowned slightly, not caring about Ning Cheng’s first and second questions, and asked the third point directly.
Ning Cheng did not know if Qu Wujian understood the matter of the Creation War and asked ambiguously in return, “What do you think?”
Qu Wujian’s tone turned cold as he said, “Just because you want to go to the Creation War?”
This fellow really knew about the Creation War, no wonder he had this way of concealing the Green Lotus of Creation. Hiding at the bottom of the black water in this Black Water Realm, it was estimated that as long as that Xing Xi didn’t come here, it would be hard to find any traces.
“Whether or not I can participate in the Creation War is not something you need to worry about. If you don’t agree, then don’t blame me for letting that woman called Xing Xi come.” Ning Cheng was not bragging with these words, he did have the certainty to call Xing Xi. As long as he fought with Qu Wujian and exposed Qu Wujian’s Green Lotus aura in this, Xing Xi would definitely come over.
Of course, this was only a means for him to threaten Qu Wujian, if Xing Xi came, he would not be able to please him just as much.
“I obtained eighteen pieces of Nei Dao Dragon Scale Sand in that cave, as well as a Dragon Dao Skill. As for why I wanted to assassinate you, it was because I cultivate a diversionary divine ability that requires a powerful diversion. As soon as I saw you, I knew that you were suitable to be my split body. The third point is that since you know what I have in me, you also know that I will not leave the Blackwater Realm. In the future, if you want to see me, come to the Blackwater Realm to find me, if you can’t, then don’t blame me.” Qu Wujian said somewhat stifled.
Before his strength reached a certain level, he would definitely not take out the Creation Green Lotus Lotus Petal. It would be best if he could finish off that woman in the future instead of giving the Creation Green Lotus Petal away.
Ning Cheng knew that this fellow had definitely obtained more than eighteen pieces of Nether Dao Dragon Scale Sand, but when Qu Wujian said eighteen pieces, it looked like he only wanted to give him nine pieces. If he asked for more, I guess this fellow would not agree.
Thinking of this, Ning Cheng said directly, “Give me nine pieces of Nirvana Dao Dragon Scale Sand, and I want that Dragon Dao Skill as well.”
“Yes, it’s okay, here you go.” After Qu Wujian finished speaking, he raised his hand to throw out a ring, only as he was about to throw it out, the two red dao rhythms on his wrist faded, as if they had been put away.
Ning Cheng suddenly put away the Creation Divine Spear and opened his hand, and a long black arrow was suspended in the air. Underneath this long black arrow, a five-coloured longbow faintly appeared.
A fierce killing intent instantly spread across this side of the Black Water Sea, turning into one terrifying killing intent after another, locking onto Qu Wujian.
“Five-coloured Star Splitting Arrows?” Qu Wujian drew a cold breath backwards, his entire being pausing. With just this pause, two red dao rhyme rays appeared only a few feet away from Ning Cheng, the very same two red rays that had disappeared from Qu Wujian’s wrist.
Ning Cheng secretly said in his heart that it was close, this guy had not used his full strength just now. This was this guy’s bottom card, if he hadn’t taken out the Five-coloured Star Splitting Arrow early, he might have been able to find out when these two red auras locked him.
“I was sure you wouldn’t keep your word, and sure enough, I wasn’t wrong. Someone like you actually managed to obtain the lotus petals of the Green Lotus of Creation, it’s also a sh*t-eating stroke of luck.” After Ning Cheng said these words, the Divine Gun of Creation suddenly rolled up thousands of gun patterns, which did not attack Qu Wujian at all, but instead transformed into a huge vortex outside the two’s domain.
The whirlpool grew larger and larger, and the black water around them was directly swept away by the Dao rhyme of the spear patterns, forming a space.
“Stop, I agree.” As these words fell, Qu Wujian did not hesitate to throw a ring to Ning Cheng.
He knew very well what Ning Cheng meant, that was to roll away the black water and allow his aura of the Green Lotus of Creation to penetrate out and attract that woman called Xing Xi to come over. This person was too sinister, but it was a pity that his Creation Green Lotus Petal could not be exposed just yet.
Ning Cheng’s divine sense rolled across the ring and swept in at the same time. Sure enough, he saw that apart from the seven Nether Dao Dragon Scale Sands, there was also an ancient volume inside.
Ning Cheng did not continue to stir up the black water and slowly retrieved the Creation Divine Spear. As he watched, Qu Wujian also collected the two red rays of light before instantly disappearing.
After only a few breaths, Ning Cheng could no longer catch any of Qu Wujian’s aura before he put away the Five-coloured Star Splitting Arrow. This bottom of the Black Water was indeed strange, perhaps Qu Wujian was not the only one hiding down here.
Nine Nedao Dragon Scale Sands were enough for Ning Cheng, who was about to rush out of the black water to wait for Xiao Xinxi and Ao Ru on the land a few feet in circumference, when he suddenly received a message from Ao Ru asking for help.
Without even thinking about it, Ning Cheng’s entire body turned into a line of water and disappeared.
Just as Ning Cheng left, a few hundred meters away from Ning Cheng, Qu Wu Jian’s figure reappeared, he stared at the direction where Ning Cheng had disappeared and coldly muttered to himself, “No one can take advantage of me, Qu Wu Jian, I will go and settle the score with you.”
After saying these words, his figure disappeared in slowly turning into black water.
