Ning Cheng hesitated for a moment before saying, “I reckon your grandfather has already sensed that something is wrong, but he shouldn’t care.”
Ning Cheng vaguely felt that Tong Shi seemed to have sensed something, but just didn’t care. After all, it was considered normal to have some fluctuations in the rules of heaven and earth. This indicated that there were still some flaws in his perception of the darkness rules. Once he had completely merged into the rules of heaven and earth in space and transformed into a dark rule, Tang Shi would definitely not have any abnormalities.
“Are you still willing to continue working with me?” Ning Cheng was unwilling to waste time here with Tang Hua, and if Tang Hua was unwilling, he intended to leave the Sacred Lord Domain with the Five-coloured Star Splitting Bow. He had a long list of things to do and could not afford to spend time in this place.
Tong Hua affirmed, “My grandfather has said this, so I am naturally willing to ask for your help. Are you staying with me, or at the Rest Inn?”
“How long do we have until the Light Vault Entry Qualifying Competition?” Ning Cheng did not answer directly, but inquired instead.
“There is still half a year to go.” Tong Hua replied.
“Good, then I will come back in half a year.” Ning Cheng replied, it was a complete waste of time for him to stay here with Tang Hua. If he stayed here in hiding and did nothing, then Tong Shi would definitely not know that he was here. Once he was here to sense the Dao, then Tang Shi would definitely know about it.
For him to spend half a year here doing nothing, that was simply unrealistic.
Ning Cheng was unwilling to cause trouble, he had already offended two peak powerhouses, and if he added the sort of hidden rival Ju exhaustion, exposure would not be good for him.
Once he was besieged by You Shuai and Zeng Lai Fu, then Ju Guan would definitely strike out against him. When Ju Gui strikes, I am afraid that Tang Shi will have to strike in order to remove the Tong family from the scene. Even if Tong Shi did not strike, there might be other Daoist monarchs who would do so. With only one person, he would not be able to deal with so many people.
“Then we will see you in half a year, if you need my help, feel free to give me a message.” Tong Hua also knew what Ning Cheng meant, with You Wash’s ability, he would probably be able to find out Ning Cheng’s hidden origins even after half a year. The Tong Family was not afraid of the You Family, nor was they willing to form a feud with the You Family over such matters.
Inviting Ning Cheng to participate in the selection to enter the treasure trove was one thing, allowing Ning Cheng to stay in the Tong Family to cultivate was another.
Ning Cheng had no intention of asking Tong Hua for help, after hearing Tong Hua’s words, he hesitated and suddenly said, “Miss Tong Hua, can you lend me your Bright Treasure Carriage for a while?”
Tong Hua was only slightly surprised before she took out her own Light Treasure Carriage and handed it to Ning Cheng without hesitation, “You can control it by refining it a little yourself.”
She knew Ning Cheng somewhat well and believed that Ning Cheng had not borrowed her treasure carriage for the purpose of escaping. If it was for the purpose of escaping, Ning Cheng could simply say so directly. Because by saying so directly, she would also lend it to Ning Cheng.
“Many thanks, I’ll take my leave, see you in half a year.” Ning Cheng put away the Bright Treasure Carriage, cupped his fist to Tang Hua and thanked her, and with a flash of his body, he instantly vanish away.
“Wait, I’ll take you out ……” Tang Hua thought of the strict prohibitions of the Tang Clan, if she didn’t take Ning Cheng out, Ning Cheng was afraid that it would be difficult for him to leave easily.
Only after she said this, Ning Cheng had long since disappeared.
In her heart, Tong Hua was secretly shocked, no wonder the strong man who was rumored to have killed You Duo Dai had set up a concealment formation and even You Shuai did not notice it. This Brother Ning’s formation dao was really strong to an extreme, at least in the Light Saint Domain I was afraid that no one could surpass him.
How strong the Tong Family’s defensive formation was, Tong Hua knew it clearly. But such a great defensive formation, after people left, the people guarding the Tong Family did not even half notice it, that was a real skill.
Tong Hua did not care that Ning Cheng had been somewhat rude to her Tong Family by leaving through the defensive formation like that. She had also vaguely guessed something of Ning Cheng’s thoughts; Ning Cheng was telling her that if there was a fight in the future, her Tong Family should not interfere. This was because if he was angered, the Tong Hua’s defensive formation would be a decoration.
This was something that Tong Hua did not intend to tell her grandfather, Tong Shi, and no matter what, she would not let the Tong Family intervene in the battle between Ning Cheng and the You Family and Zeng Lai Fu, and she believed that her grandfather would not participate either.
Ning Cheng had indeed meant for the Tong Family not to interfere in his affairs, but Tong Hua had not guessed correctly. Ning Cheng did not think that the Tong Family would help the You Family and Zeng Lai Fu, but he was worried that the Tong Family would help Ju Ju. He had worked happily with Tong Hua, but if the Tong Family took action against him, he would not hold back.
In this place, staying his hand was tantamount to seeking death.
……
Sanctuary River.
Not only is it the most mysterious place in the Light Sky, it is equally the most mysterious place in the Dark Sky.
The Light and Dark Heavens of the Light and Dark Universe were incompatible with each other, and there would be a great battle in a few tens of thousands of years. If it were not for the Sacred Domain River, I am afraid that the Light and Dark Heavens would have fought violent battles almost every day.
The Sanctuary River twists and stretches across the Light and Dark Universe, and no one knows the source or the end. All that is known is that the branches of the Sanctuary River not only divide the Light Sanctuary, but likewise the Dark Sanctuary of the Dark Sky.
On either side of the main stem of the Sanctuary River are the Light and Dark Heavens.
Ning Cheng was standing at the edge of the main stem of the Sacred Domain River, which was the location pointed out to him by Nong Xiyiwei’s jade slip. This jade slip was also not Nong Xiyu’s, it was something that Nong Xiyu’s father had bequeathed to her.
It was likely that the Sacred Domain River was the cosmic interface of the Light and Dark Universe, again this was the conclusion Nong Ximu had come to. It was just that Nong Ximu’s cultivation level was not enough to enter the Sacred Domain River to investigate.
The Sacred Domain River was still as calm as a mirror, with no ripples. Ning Cheng knew that the opposite side of where he was standing was the Dark Sky, and neither his gaze, nor his divine sense, could penetrate further away.
Ning Cheng did not directly sacrifice the Light Treasure Carriage, but stood at the edge of the Sacred Domain River and carefully took in a fistful of water from the Sacred Domain River with his divine sense, then with great speed, he rolled this fistful of water up from the Sacred Domain River.
When he and Tong Hua had crossed the Sanctuary River branch, he had caused the Sanctuary River to roar and roll with violent waves, almost rolling Tong Hua’s Light Treasure Carriage down because he had taken in a fistful of Sanctuary River water.
“Boom!” Ning Cheng had just ingested this fistful of river water when the previously calm and waveless Sacred Domain River tumbled. A terrifying wave swept in from the heart of the river, and Ning Cheng even suspected that he was not standing on the shore, but in the Bright Treasure Carriage in the heart of the river.
The huge waves were only a few feet when they first appeared between Ning Cheng’s divine sense, but a few moments later they became tens of hundreds of feet. Then after that, a thousand-foot wave came crashing down, directly submerging and blasting the banks of the Sanctuary River. And after this thousand-foot wave, ten thousand-foot waves still rolled up.
A terrifying heaven and earth rule aura swept through the space around Ning Cheng, and that rule aura made it difficult for Ning Cheng to move.
Ning Cheng’s face changed greatly, and after a rule-breaking divine ability, the Divine Spear of Creation blasted out without hesitation.
“Ka ……” The Divine Spear of Creation blasted into the endless waves of violence, as if it had hit a substantial hard iron shield, emitting a clacking sound of gold and iron.
A slight gap was broken open by Ning Cheng’s Divine Spear of Creation, and Ning Cheng’s figure transformed into a dark rule and disappeared from this gap.
Hundreds of miles away, Ning Cheng stopped and watched in shock as the furious waves of the Sacred Domain River retreated, still a little shocked in his heart.
This Sacred Domain River was too terrifying, his almost complete strength was unable to even take in a single punch of water. The fistful of water he had just ingested was not only swept away by the Sacred Domain River, his entire body was almost swept away by the Sacred Domain River.
Ning Cheng took a breather and landed on the ground. If it was an ordinary person, he would definitely not be able to escape from the terrifying waves of the Sacred Domain River.
The waves of the Sacred Domain River came and went as quickly as they came. After the fistful of water that Ning Cheng had ingested was swept away and Ning Cheng had vanish, the waves slowly ebbed and the shore gradually regained its tranquillity.
An incense stick later, the Sacred Domain River was once again as good as a mirror, as if everything that had just happened was a fake.
Ning Cheng returned to the edge of the Sacred Domain River, and he finally understood why even such a powerful person as Nongsimu was unable to enter the Sacred Domain River to explore it.
With this kind of might of the Sacred Domain River, he was just as unable to go in and explore.
It all boiled down to one sentence, the strength was too low.
Ning Cheng dismissed the idea of using the Bright Treasure Carriage to take a trip around the Sacred Domain River, with his current strength, that would be seeking death.
He was lucky that he had done it on the shore just now, if he had really been on top of the Light Treasure Carriage, I was afraid that tens of thousands of feet of waves would have swept up the Sacred Domain River and swept him into the bottom of the river with the carriage.
Ning Cheng was helpless, if it was really like what Nongsimu had speculated, that the Sacred Domain River was the interface of the Light and Dark Universe, he could not even go down the river now, how could he find that plane? How could he leave the Sacred Domain River if he couldn’t find that dimension?
Did he really have to cross over to the third step here before he could leave?
How easy would it be to step into the third step?
If he had the Chaos Jade Talisman in the Chaos Realm, he would have been able to enter the third step of the Dao of Proof to the Power.
How could he go to the Chaos Realm nowadays? Moreover, according to Nong Ximu’s words, even if he went to the Chaos Realm, the one he witnessed would not be the strongest third step.
The strongest third step is to gather one’s own attribute rules and create worlds, how easy is this?
Ning Cheng sighed, he knew that it was too hard and too difficult for him to reach this step. It was mainly because his gong methods, and rule divine abilities, all came from the origin attributes born from Chaos. He had already been branded with the Chaos Origin Attribute, and if he wanted to remove this brand, it would be difficult to do so even if he was reincarnated and reborn.
Let’s leave first, maybe there is something he needs in that Light Vault.
Ning Cheng had just thought of this when he heard a slightly shrill voice come out, “Did you destroy the Lefou Dao Gate? Did you kill Yudodai as well?”
Ning Cheng looked up in amazement, he had just been thinking about the Third Step of the Dao of Evidence and hadn’t even noticed that someone had come near him.
A few dozen feet away from him stood a man in brocade. This brocade clothed man was almost eyebrowless, his eyes were extremely bright, Dao rhythm flowed around him, and a powerful and oppressive aura came over him. At this moment, he had arrived a few feet opposite Ning Cheng and was staring coldly at him.
“Zeng Leif?” Ning Cheng immediately thought of who this person was, he had heard that Zeng Lai Fu, the man whose cave he had destroyed, was a Harmonious Realm powerhouse, and this man in brocade before him was precisely of Harmonious Realm cultivation.
