Ning Cheng was the first to wake up, he felt a puff of air in his chest and then he saw Nong Xiyiwei who was pressed unconscious on his chest.
Nong Xifei was covered in blood, his face was pale and his hair, which had been lustrous, had become dry and yellow.
Ning Cheng’s struggled to get up, and his eyes swept to Zhou Xing who was not far away. The state of Zhou Xing’s death was exactly the same as that early stage of the Harmonious Dao who had initially taken Nong Xifei away, so it was evident that Zhou Xing had been killed by Nong Xifei.
Within a short period of time, Ning Cheng was able to determine the general situation. It should be that after Nong Xiyang had finished off Ju Huo Yang, when Zhou Xing was about to kill him, he had come to his rescue in time and desperately finished off Zhou Xing.
The reason is that before Zhou Xing killed him, it would have been impossible for him to kill Nong Shifei. Now that Zhou Xing had fallen and Nong Xifei had fainted on his body, that meant that Zhou Xing was killed by Nong Xifei while he was killing him.
Ning Cheng swallowed several pills and raised his hand to throw out some formation flags after his injuries had recovered a bit.
A few breaths later, a dao rhyme coalesced and formed a dao rhyme image. As expected, it was exactly as he had guessed, after killing Ju Huo Yang, Nong Xiyang had deliberately fallen on his side and then took the opportunity to finish off Zhou Xing.
Ning Cheng took in a breath and took out a few pills and sent them into Nong Xiyi’s mouth. He had not expected Nong Xiyi to be so heavy on saving his life, he had just saved Nong Xiyi’s life before and Nong Xiyi had repaid him for saving his life. This was a woman who was clear in her grudges and extremely proud of herself.
This was his most dangerous strike, although he had expected it before he struck, and the result was not that bad. He only lost some of his longevity and essence, and it did not affect his dao heart.
Ning Cheng retrieved the formation flag, disrupted the Dao rhythm aura of the place, raised his hand and threw out a flame to destroy the place, before he grabbed a few rings and left this place instantly with Nong Xiewei in his arms.
Ning Cheng did not leave Thunder God Canyon, but instead opened up a new cave at a place extremely far away from here. After setting up the protective formation, Ning Cheng began to wait for Nong Xiyuwei to wake up.
Although Nong Xiewei’s injuries had injured her origin, her cultivation level was only Dao-shaping. Ning Cheng had too many Dao Pills on him, so if he wanted to save Nong Xiguang, it could not be easier.
Ning Cheng did not have to wait long, after he had finished setting up the protective formation, in just over an hour, Nong Xiewei woke up.
She sat up in amazement and raised her head and looked around for a moment before she landed on Ning Cheng and said, “Thank you so much for saving my friend’s life.”
Nong Xiewei was considered clean-looking, her lips were not too thin nor too thick, giving her a soft feeling. Although her hair was withered, it added a sense of softness and beauty instead.
In addition, Ning Cheng was already very grateful to Nong Shini and looked at her more and more favourably, “Fairy Nong has spoken highly of me, if it wasn’t for Fairy Nong saving me, I’m afraid I would have fallen at the hands of Ju Huo Yang or Zhou Xing, to say the least, Fairy Nong has saved me twice.”
My father has always taught me that if you don’t repay a kindness, you are no different from a dog, let alone talk about cultivation.”
Hearing these words, Ning Cheng had a respect for Nong Ximu. What he respected most was a person who wanted to repay his kindness, and since Nong Ximu could teach his daughter in such a way, he himself was naturally such a person who knew how to repay his kindness.
“Fairy Nong, my name is Ning Cheng, from now on Fairy Nong can just call me by my first name.” Ning Cheng said respectfully to Nong Ximu.
Nong Xiewei slightly owed, “Brother Ning’s cultivation is far superior to mine, just call me Xiewei directly, I am not a fairy either.”
After saying this, Nong Xiewei paused for a moment and continued, “Brother Ning passed in front of my cave for the first time, so I guess he must have come for the Dark Origin Pearl as well?”
After saying these words, Nong Xiyiwei stared at Ning Cheng. Even though Ning Cheng had saved her, and she vaguely felt that Ning Cheng did not seem like that kind of thick-headed person, she could not be sure if Ning Cheng had saved her because of the Dark Origin Pearl.
Ning Cheng’s heart jumped and his face instantly became embarrassed that Nong Xiyuan really knew that he had been following behind him. I don’t know why Nong Qiwei had named Zhou Xing and not him.
“I’m sorry, because I was desperate for the Dark Origin Pearl, that’s why I wanted to search for you in exchange for the Origin Pearl ……,” Ning Cheng said apologetically.
Nong Xiewei smiled faintly, “It’s nothing, in fact you only need to refine me and you can obtain the Dark Origin Pearl.”
What kind of person wants someone else to refine them, Ning Cheng stood up even more embarrassed and said, “I do want to make an exchange with you, if you are not willing to do so, I naturally won’t do such an ungrateful thing. Let alone the fact that you and I have no enmity and have even saved my life. Even if I had a grudge, I would only be taking revenge for snatching away the Origin Pearl. Refining a person and obtaining the Origin Pearl is not something that I, Ning Cheng, would do.”
“Brother Ning please sit down, I am just testing the waters, please don’t mind if Brother Ning understands.” Nong Xiewei respectfully owed a little to Ning Cheng.
Ning Cheng nodded and did not say anything more, he knew that as such a test by Nong Xiyi was not too much. After all, he and Nong Xiyu were considered first time meeting people, not even friends.
“May I ask why you want the Dark Origin Pearl, Brother Ning?” Seeing that Ning Cheng indeed had no intention of forcibly snatching it, Nong Xiyiwei then inquired.
Ning Cheng pondered for a while before he said, “My technique has something to do with the Origin, and I also have a world that would be a step more complete if I had the Dark Origin Pearl.”
After hearing Ning Cheng’s words, Nong Xiewei nodded, “When you first arrived at the entrance of my cave, I sensed that you were also cultivating an Origin Technique. It was because of this that I intended to talk to you face to face after I had cleaned up that general. I just didn’t expect that Ju Huo Yang’s heart was so deep. I suspect that Ran Tong made his move and also had something to do with Ju Huo Yang ……”
No wonder he didn’t reveal about his stalking, it turned out that he had sensed that he was cultivating the Origin Technique.
“You don’t need to worry, if I’m not wrong, your cultivation level should have plummeted. When your cultivation level is restored, even if I have Origin Pearls and cultivate Origin Merit Techniques, I won’t be able to detect it.” Seeing that Ning Cheng remained silent, Nong Xiewei comforted Ning Cheng.
Ning Cheng was unwilling to say more about his Origin Merit Method and digressed to ask, “So Ran Tong is helping someone?”
Nong Xiewei gave a hmph and said with certainty, “Ran Tong is definitely working for someone, and the person behind him is not Ju Huo Yang. I have a strong suspicion that that person is Ju Ju, but unfortunately I have no proof.”
“Ju Gui? The Holy Lord of the Light Sacred Domain?” Ning Cheng asked in a startled voice.
Nong Xiewei sighed, “He is indeed the Saint Lord of the Light Sacred Domain, and was also my father’s best friend back then. My father fell for the Light Sacred Domain and for him, but he coveted my Dark Origin Pearl.”
“How do you know that Ju Ju coveted your Dark Origin Pearl?” Ning Cheng was puzzled.
A hint of helplessness appeared in Nong Xiewei’s eyes, “Before my father died, he told me that he suspected that Ju Guan had backstabbed him with a shot in the back. Unfortunately, there was no way for him to find out the answer anymore. He told me that if he really was assassinated by Ju Guan, I could only stay in the Sacred Lord Domain and live in the same area as Ju Guan, which would give me a chance to stay alive.”
Ning Cheng frowned slightly, if it was really Ju Guan who was behind this, then they were now in danger in the Thunder God Canyon.
Seeming to see Ning Cheng’s thoughts, Nong Xiewei calmly said, “We are safest here, just like when I lived in the First Holy Domain of Light, the Holy Lord Domain. Only when I lived there would Ju Ju not touch me, or rather not dare to touch me easily. Now that Ju Huo Yang has fallen in Thunder God Canyon, this is also the safest place to be.”
“What about you?” Ning Cheng looked at Nong Xiyang, if Nong Xiyang had no way out, he could take Nong Xiyang away once he had found the Cosmic Face of this side of the universe.
Nong Xiewei raised his hand and lightly stroked his head, saying extremely plainly, “I will not go to the Sacred Lord Domain again, it was so hard to leave the Sacred Lord Domain, I have already made my plans.”
Nong Xiewei did not say where she intended to go, and Ning Cheng did not ask again.
“You said that you used the Dark Origin Pearl to perfect your world, could it be that your world is a top level Chaos world?” Nong Xiewei once again drew back the words that Ning Cheng had interjected away before.
Even though the Five Elemental Chaos Worlds also needed things like Origin Pearls, Ning Cheng knew that he could not hide it from Nong Xiewei, he nodded and did not say anything. The World of Creation was also called the World of Chaos by some people.
Nong Xiewei was silent for a while before suddenly speaking, “Brother Ning, if you believe me, don’t continue to search for Origin Pearls to perfect your world, let alone try to fuse with your world and then use it to cross over to the third step.”
“Why?” Ning Cheng had not intended to cross over to the third step with the help of the Xuanhuang Pearl, but if he chose the Origin Pearl to perfect his world, then why not?
Nong Xiewei looked at Ning Cheng and said gruffly, “Brother Ning, there are thousands and thousands of means to cross into the third step, for example, that Ju Huo Yang before was also considered the third step. But with Ju Huo Yang’s strength, he is just like a mole in front of my father. Even the Saint Master Domain’s Ju exhaust could easily crush Ju Huoyang to death. This is because his third step is the Gryphon Realm, also commonly known as the False Realm.”
Ning Cheng knew all this, and he did not expect Nong Ximu to know it as well. If it was Nong Ximu who had told Nong Xifei, then Nong Ximu’s perception of the Great Dao was already extremely deep. It had to be said that it was a loss for such a person to fall early.
Nong Ximu’s tone became increasingly grave, ”Big brother Ning, true boundary creation is to condense one’s own world through one’s own rules. If I’m not wrong, Brother Ning, you have already searched for the Five Elemental Origin Beads to perfect your world. Moreover, your gong methods are also closely related to the Origin.”
Ning Cheng had to admire Nong Xiewei’s insight, and he simply admitted, “That’s right, it is indeed as you said.”
Nong Xiewei nodded and continued, “My father told me that a true third-step powerhouse is one who has derived his own rules, condensed his own world origin and constructed his own world. Rather than relying on any external origin or any heaven and earth exotic treasure ……”
Gathering one’s own origin!
Nong Xiewei’s words passed between Ning Cheng’s divine thoughts like a bolt of lightning, he already had a vague sense of this, just that it wasn’t very profound. He had always thought that he had used the origin of heaven and earth to perfect the Xuanhuang Pearl, and that he had crossed over to the third step with the help of the merit method deduced from the Xuanhuang Pearl, and that this was the strongest third step.
Now, after listening to Nong Xiewei’s words, he was enlightened. The third step he had thought of was indeed strong, but he had still made use of the treasures of heaven and earth. Even the new world he had condensed was not his own original source. No wonder Nong Shifu revealed a pitying look, it was because he had gathered the five elemental origin beads long ago.
