“Idiot.” Ning Cheng shook his head speechlessly, this guy knew at a glance that he liked this young girl called Gu Lan, but his intelligence was worrying, that young girl obviously didn’t mean anything to him.
As for this fellow saying that he had lied to him, Ning Cheng also understood what this fellow meant. He had split the stone cave’s forbidden system with one axe, and this Zuo HongXuan had split his axe in the same place, and as a result, he had been seriously injured by the backlash, almost getting killed. This fellow didn’t dare to blame the red-skirted girl, and even oddly said that he had lied to him.
Ning Cheng didn’t even have the interest to scold him. If this Zuo HongXuan said that he had cheated him, wouldn’t he be saying that the red-skirted girl was cheating him? With such a worrying IQ and that little white male cultivator called Wu Shu fighting over the red-skirted girl, Ning Cheng felt sorry for this guy.
All the people around him shook their heads speechlessly, this guy had obviously been shaded by his own companion, and the woman he liked hadn’t warned him, and now he still couldn’t figure out who to hate.
Luckily, this fellow also knew that after being seriously injured, he was not a match for Ning Cheng at all, and after calling out, there was no companion to join him, so he had to hang his head in despair and heal himself.
The red-skirted girl could also see that Ning Cheng’s prestige here was not low, and after she had occupied most of the column of incense, she did not dare to continue hogging this stone door. Although she was sure that if she was given enough time, she would be able to open the stone door ban.
Ning Cheng stood in front of the stone door again. There were many cultivators who had come to sell their tickets, but those who could really come up with 50,000 top quality spirit stones were extremely few. Apart from the eight people from before, only two cultivators had taken out something worth 50,000 spirit stones for Ning Cheng.
Ning Cheng put away the items and said to the two cultivators standing behind him who had given out spirit stones, “This time, it will be just the four of us going in. When the gate opens later, you guys will go in first, while senior sister and I will go in second.”
Ning Cheng had already had the experience of opening the stone door twice, and this time, he easily broke it open. The moment the stone door opened, the two cultivators who had exited the spirit stones quickly rushed into the stone door, and before Meng Jingxiu could rush into the stone door, a figure suddenly rushed over to the side, and he unexpectedly tried to take advantage of the opportunity to enter this cave.
This person’s aura was extremely strong and swift, so Meng Jingxiu obviously did not react and subconsciously dodged to the side.
The figure had already arrived at the doorway of the stone door while Meng Jingxiu was giving way.
Ning Cheng’s reaction however was quick, as if he did not see this rushing cultivator, he shifted his palm slightly sideways.
“Boom ……” After a muffled sound, the cultivator who had already rushed to the stone doorway seemed to have been pushed out directly by something.
Unlike other cultivators, after he was blasted out, he didn’t fly far, just a few feet away, before flopping to the ground.
The surrounding cultivators had all understood that this man was trying to steal the way.
“Senior sister Jingxiu, go in.” Ning Cheng called out in a deep voice to Meng Jingxiu.
Meng Jingxiu had already understood and hurriedly rushed inside the stone door, Ning Cheng was the fourth to enter, and with a smooth hand, all the formation flags he had thrown out were collected.
Only then did the crowd realise that the cultivator who had just been blasted several feet away by the stone door’s killing intent ban had shattered into several pieces out of thin air, and it was only at this point that the shattered area began to bleed.
All of them drew in a cold breath, it was not that there had been no deaths from attacking this killing intent prohibition, and there had been quite a few of them. But most cultivators were blown out by the killing intent backlash, and then a visible killing intent wound appeared. There had never been a case where a cultivator had shattered into several pieces like this one.
The red-skirted girl called Gu Lan glanced at this cultivator who had flung himself to the ground, and a trace of scorn flashed in her eyes.
However, she quickly regained her composure and turned back to her male fellow cultivator who was not yet injured and said, “Senior Brother Wu, I will use my own sword intent to fight against the killing intent here later, you notice the loose spots in this killing intent ban, once any loose spots appear, I will immediately alert and you will immediately make your move.”
Wu Shu said dryly, “Yes, Senior Sister Gu Lan you can definitely open this stone door ban.”
“My injury is just that I can’t make a move, I can still put in some effort to deal with this stone door prohibition.” When Zuo HongXuan heard that Wu Shu wanted to join forces with Senior Sister Gu Lan, his heart was in a hurry and he hurried up and said.
Wu Shu was just about to speak when he heard the red-skirted girl nod and respond, “That’s fine too, Hong Xuan is injured, so he can follow where senior brother Wu strikes to attack.”
Hearing that he could participate again, Zuo HongXuan was close to patting his chest and saying that there would definitely be no problem.
The red-skirted girl had no time limit this time, and she stood in front of this stone door for a full half hour, her sword intent constantly touching the killing intent ban of this stone door.
After the greater part of an hour, the red-skirted girl, who was already a little pale, once again pointed to a spot and said, “This is the place, attack ……”
Wu Shu and Zuo HongXuan almost simultaneously sacrificed their magic treasures and blasted at the place pointed out by the red-skirted girl, a terrifying axe intent blasted out, completely swallowing the red-skirted girl’s sword intent.
The three of them were blown away by the powerful axe intent, and they were not able to get up.
The red-skirted girl was similarly unlucky to be blown away by this powerful killing intent, and a nearly one-foot slot of blood slashed diagonally across her chest, cutting her bib open.
The least injured was surprisingly Wu Shu, who was the main attacker, who only suffered a wound on his arm, not even a minor one.
Wu Shu couldn’t even think about himself and hurriedly landed next to the red-skirted girl, while taking out a potion and saying eagerly, “Senior sister Gu Lan, there is a healing potion in here. Are you alright with your injuries?”
Seeing Wu Shu’s anxious demeanour, the red-skirted girl took the elixir and said, “I’m fine, I’ve dragged you into this.”
Seeing Wu Shu and sister Gu Lan comforting each other, Zuo HongXuan, lying on the ground, also wanted to go over and comfort his sister Gu Lan, but unfortunately the injury he received was too serious.
“It’s okay, let’s try again.” Wu Shu waited for the red-skirted girl to wrap her wounds before saying another word.
A hint of gloom flashed across the red-skirted maiden’s eyes as she shook her head and said, “No need to try, I can’t break this killing intent prohibition. Those who can break this prohibition should have already entered the cave. If I had known this, I might as well ……”
The words that followed the red-skirted girl were not spoken, but Wu Shu understood what the other party meant. If I had known this, I might as well have offered some spirit stones to that abominable fellow and bought a ticket.
……
After Ning Cheng and Meng Jingwen entered the gate of the killing intent ban, the dense spiritual qi almost made the two of them want to stay here for closed-door cultivation.
The place where the two stood was a circular room, and as far as the eyes could see around them, there were no pa*sageways at all.
“Where did those people go?” Only then did Meng Jingxiu realise that there was no one inside this circular room, which meant that the people who had come in with them before had all disappeared.
Ning Cheng discovered this at the same time, his reaction speed was simply not comparable to Meng Jingxiu’s, he backhanded Meng Jingxiu and wrapped his arms around him. Before Meng Jingxiu could react, he felt a lightness in his body and a dizzy feeling came over him.
Meng Jingxiu was at least a True Condensation cultivator, and one with an extremely strong comprehension ability. How could this situation not know that she and Ning Cheng had been transported away by a kind of teleportation array? Ning Cheng had his arms around her because he did not want to be separated by the teleportation.
The strong dizziness made Meng Jingxiu’s consciousness somewhat blurred, and it was Ning Cheng who could only vaguely retain some awareness that he was in the middle of a spatial teleportation formation.
With a “bang”, Ning Cheng felt that all the restraints on his body were lost at this moment, and he involuntarily fell down and stood on top of a raised green brick.
Ning Cheng’s body swayed and he almost took a few inertial steps forward. Or rather, if he hadn’t sensed where he was long ago, he would have already taken a few steps forward.
At this moment, the place where he was standing was less than a foot square, just enough for a person to stand, and around the green brick beneath his feet, there were black holes and deep ravines that he could not see at all.
Ning Cheng immediately broke out in a cold sweat, which meant that if he took a step in any direction other than where he was standing, he would fall into this endless deep black ravine.
Not only could this endless black gorge not be swept to the bottom with his divine sense, but there was also an eerie killing intent coming from it. This killing intent gave Ning Cheng the feeling that once he fell into this deep ravine, he would definitely die, or even his bones would not survive.
Ning Cheng subconsciously shivered, what kind of place was this? It was like the description of an underworld hell, could it be that this ancient cave was such a ghastly place? Such a terrifying place, if he hadn’t held Meng Jingxiu just now, with Meng Jingxiu’s strength, teleporting to such a place would have been a complete death sentence. She couldn’t even stand up.
His divine sense swept out and found that it was blocked and could only sweep to a certain range and could not extend further. Within the range of his divine sense, there were deep ravines of darkness that were hollow. Not only that, these deep ravines seemed to have a suction force coming from them.
Meng Jingxiu also came to her senses at this point, and as she noticed the situation around her, she asked with a shudder, “Senior Brother Ning, what have we been transported to that is so terrifying?”
Ning Cheng had already settled down, the people who had set up this place would not have needed to go to such trouble if they wanted them to die, there should be a special reason for being teleported here. He said to Meng Jingxiu who was holding him in his hands, “Senior sister Jingxiu, with your cultivation level in this place, there is absolutely no way to move on your own. I will carry you on my back later, so you have to be more careful on your own.”
Meng Jingxiu had already calmed down, and her tone became calm as she said, “I know, Senior Brother Ning.”
Ning Cheng extremely skillfully carried Meng Jingxiu on his back, while using a strap to secure Meng Jingxiu down.
Seeing Ning Cheng’s incredibly skilled movements, Meng Jingxiu suddenly asked, “Senior Brother Ning, do you often carry people on your back?”
