Deep beneath an ocean-like swamp, Ning Cheng had been hiding inside the small world for a month. After he had disappeared under the swamp, he set up a concealment formation and then hid inside the small world in his ring.
After experiencing so many things, Ning Cheng was gradually changing himself.
Whether or not anyone was chasing him, he had obtained something good and was being chased, it was better to keep a low profile.
In his own little world, Ning Cheng began to refine some pills while making various talismans. The small world was run by him and a beautiful dwelling was constructed.
After flushing his body with the Spirit Cleansing True Dew, Yan Ji seemed to be a little more awake than before, and could sometimes sit down and meditate, and could even occasionally absorb spirit energy on his own to cultivate.
Another few months passed and Ning Cheng felt that it was time to leave. If he could find the exit of the Rule Road, he would not have wanted to stay in it long ago. By entering the Rule Road, his purpose had already been achieved, and it was a waste of time to continue staying in here.
Initially, Ning Cheng had also planned to hand Yan Ji over to her fellow disciples, but when he was breaking into the formation, those cultivators had been just as unforgiving towards Yan Ji, and at this point, Ning Cheng no longer had this intention.
In front of interests, even if it was those fellow disciples of Yan Ji, no one would probably care about her life or death. Luckily, he now had a ring small world, and when he went out, he would bring Yan Ji out as well by the way.
Ning Cheng changed his attire, disguising himself as a male cultivator with a pale face and transitory indulgence. After feeling that there was no problem with his attire, Ning Cheng then rushed out from inside this swamp.
“What kind of place is this?” As soon as Ning Cheng came out, he felt that something was wrong, the place he was in was not at all the place he had entered the swamp. When he first entered under the swamp, he was still afraid that he wouldn’t be able to find his way out and had purposely gone in at the edge. But this place was all swampy as far as the eye could see, where was there any edge?
Yes, it should be the swamp that was flowing and had brought him here.
Ning Cheng was just about to wave his Heavenly Cloud Twin Wings and leave from this swamp when suddenly two more figures in his divine sense rushed over. Ning Cheng’s heart tightened and he stopped his thoughts of escaping.
He knew that the cultivators coming were definitely higher in cultivation than him, and if they were Yuan-Soul cultivators, he would be looking for death if he wanted to leave.
A few moments later, two cultivators had arrived in front of Ning Cheng, a handsome male cultivator with a perfect XuanDan cultivation. His face was now a little pale like Ning Cheng’s. However, his pallor seemed to be different from Ning Cheng’s, who had disguised himself as a male cultivator who had overindulged in lust. This pale male cultivator, on the other hand, seemed to be in such a condition because of his cultivation of a certain kind of gongfu.
The other was a female cultivator, with a perfect figure that was not even remotely worse than Yan Ji and Nalan Ru Xue. A head of green silk was simply pulled back into a female cultivator’s bun, a hairpin emitting a faint light was diagonally inserted on her head, her pale red lips formed an arc, and her brows were slightly frowned upon, as if she did not quite like Ning Cheng’s appearance. However, there was a hint of killing in the corner of her eyes, forming a diametrically opposed contrast to her beautiful appearance. And this female cultivator’s cultivation level was likewise much higher than Ning Cheng’s, at the eighth level of Xuan Dan.
“Who are you? Why are you in the depths of the Thunder Domain Swamp?” It was this female cultivator who asked.
Since they were two XuanDan cultivators, Ning Cheng was not afraid. He did not want to fight either, so he clasped his fist and said, “I got lost because I was looking for the exit of the Rule Road, may I ask where the exit of the Rule Road is?”
“You’re looking for the exit of the Rule Road?” The female cultivator asked Ning Cheng with some disbelief.
The male cultivator, however, laughed loudly, as if he thought Ning Cheng was extremely idiotic.
The female cultivator who was originally looking at Ning Cheng with displeasure all had the corners of her mouth rise slightly at Ning Cheng’s words, apparently also finding it funny. She did not laugh out loud like the male cultivator, but only said in a light voice, “You don’t even seem to have reached the Golden Dan, how can you get out?”
“You must reach the Golden Dan to get out?” This was the first time Ning Cheng had heard this statement.
The female cultivator said indifferently, “Of course not, you should still have entered the Rule Road for a very short time, so you don’t understand, you will understand all this later. Let me ask you one thing, didn’t you receive any lightning strikes in the middle of this swamp? How could you, a cultivator with only Xuan Liquid, stay in this place?”
“Lightning strikes?” Ning Cheng shook his head in bewilderment, after he came to this swamp, he hid under the swamp, where was there any lightning strike?
The female cultivator was just about to say more when an abrupt blast rang out, followed by dozens of green coloured lightning arcs falling down, almost completely enveloping this space where the three were.
Ning Cheng was on guard as he spoke to this pair. At the same time as the explosion sounded, his Broken Xuan Spear had already been sacrificed, and at the same time, it spilled out a cloud of Xuan Ice Spear Aura.
“Snapping and snapping ……”
The Xuan ice spear mane instantly formed a net of spears that blasted against the countless and dense falling lightning arcs, the explosive ringing sound was continuous.
“Ka-ching ……”
Although Ning Cheng’s Xuan Ice Gun Net was powerful, he had never had any experience in resisting thunder arcs, and the dense thunder arcs actually tore apart Ning Cheng’s gun net and then blasted at Ning Cheng’s body.
“Pffff ……” Several blood splashes rose up, Ning Cheng’s body was instantly blasted by this tiny lightning arc, and his flesh and skin were split open, even his bones were exposed. The true essence within his body was also blasted in pieces by this lightning strike, and even tended to scatter.
Ning Cheng hurriedly swallowed several pills to gather his true essence, while preparing for the next wave of such intensive lightning strikes to fall.
But this wave of lightning strikes came and went quickly, without the next wave of lightning strikes coming down.
Ning Cheng breathed out, but his heart was incomparably gloomy.
“Huh, you were actually able to block the thunder arc bombardment from the depths of the Thunder Domain?” The handsome male cultivator with a white face stared at Ning Cheng with astonishment and eeked. This kind of thunder arc bombardment was already considered powerful, and Ning Cheng was only slightly injured.
Even the female cultivator looked at Ning Cheng in shock, a Xuan Liquid cultivator, without a defensive magic treasure, would never be able to block such a lightning strike. And they saw with their own eyes that Ning Cheng had no defensive magic treasures and had merely relied on a set of spear techniques to block such intensive lightning strikes.
Ning Cheng saw that both of them had a round shield surrounding their heads, and that these two Jindan cultivators had not been half harmed by the lightning strike just now.
Ning Cheng knew that these two people must have prepared for this, he did not want to continue to stay here and be struck by lightning, he then gave a fist to the two people and said, “Farewell.”
The lightning strike just now was so tiny that it was only the thickness of a noodle, and it was gone in just a moment. Just such a tiny, brief lightning strike had come close to blasting him to death. When he thought about the scene he had seen himself in the Rule Path before, the first wave of thunderstorms was countless times denser than the one just now, and the thinnest arc of lightning was thicker than a thumb. With that continuous arc of thunder falling, it would be strange if he survived.
“Wait, don’t you want to find out the exit of the Rule Road, in fact, you can’t sense the exit of the Rule Road without cultivating to the Golden Dan and entering the Rule Road ten years ago. We are going to Thunder Domain City now to prepare for the future thunder tribulation, I think you are very good, why don’t we join forces together to go to Thunder Domain City?” The white-faced male cultivator called out to Ning Cheng who was about to leave, his tone and extremely pleasant.
Ning Cheng wanted to interrupt the other party before he could finish his sentence, but after hearing the last sentence of this male cultivator, preparing for the thunder tribulation, he was immediately moved. He saw his fate in the rule path, to be blasted by the thunder tribulation in the future.
If he was able to prepare some for the thunder tribulation, would he be able to escape this terrible fate?
Seeing Ning Cheng hesitate, the male cultivator once again said with a grin, “My name is Lu Fei, and her name is Chai Chudie. We are about to exit the Rule Road and also prepare to cross the Yuan-Soul Thunder Tribulation. If you want to leave the Rule Road early, you can go out with us. With your qualifications, I’m sure it won’t take long for you to also cross the tribulation and advance to Yuan Soul.
The adventures in Thunder Domain City are not something you can meet anywhere, and besides, there are all sorts of treasures in Thunder Domain City. If you’re lucky, you might even be able to obtain some thunder attribute treasures to prepare for the future tribulation.”
Ning Cheng had already decided in his heart to go to Thunder Domain City to have a look, and he did not understand why this Lu Fei had to call on him.
“I only have Xuan Liquid cultivation, so I am afraid I cannot help you guys much.” Ning Cheng waited for Lu Fei to finish before he said in a slow voice.
Lu Fei laughed and said, “Actually, we are helping each other, in the Thunder Domain City, we are all training not far away from each other, and once we meet a place where the Thunder Arcs in the Thunder Domain City are dense, we will join together and resist together. The thunder arcs in Thunder Domain City are different from the thunder tribulation, they won’t be enhanced because of the number of people.”
Ning Cheng reckoned that this Lu Fei was not so kind, and after hearing Lu Fei’s words, he did want to go to Thunder Domain City to have a look.
Thinking of this, Ning Cheng said, “Good, then I will go with the two of you to have a look.”
“I still don’t know how my friend is addressed?” When Lu Fei heard Ning Cheng say that he was willing to go, his tone became even more enthusiastic.
“My name is Sikong Kai, I am a casual cultivator. Being able to enter the Rule Road is also due to the help of others.” Ning Cheng said with a smile.
Chai Chudie glanced at Ning Cheng and suddenly transmitted a voice to Lu Fei and said, “Senior Brother Lu, this Sikong Kai is very odd, he looks like an evil cultivator, why did you let him join us?”
Lu Fei laughed heatedly and transmitted his voice, “This person is the over-indulged kind at first glance, although he didn’t look at you much, it is obviously because of you that he is willing to go to Thunder Domain City with us. Since he is an evil cultivator and we want to refine Thunder Domain City, let him thunder sacrifice it, it’s a good way to get rid of a scourge for female cultivators.”
“And what if he’s not an evil cultivator?” Chai Chudie frowned again and passed on her voice.
Lu Fei sneered, “This person must be an evil cultivator without a doubt, and even if he is not an evil cultivator, I’m sure he is not a good person. Do not be soft-hearted, or else you won’t know how many female cultivators will be harmed. Moreover, did you see the ice spear net he cast out just now? That is definitely a Xuan-grade gun technique. This kind of gun technique is just right for me to use.”
Ning Cheng suddenly revealed a bright smile and said, “Brother Lu, please lead the way, it’s my first time going over to Thunder Domain City, and my cultivation level is low, so please take more care of the two of you.”
