Ning Cheng thought about this matter and thought it would be better not to talk to Ruo Lan, and when he met Qiong Hua in the future, Ruo Lan should not object.
……
Back then, it took Ning Cheng a month or two to travel from Jia Continent to Le Continent, and he went there from the Yixing Sea. Now Ning Cheng did not go through the Yixing Sea and directly crossed several continents. With the speed of the lower grade flying true weapon, it only took half a month to arrive at the entrance of the Jia Continent into the Angry Axe Valley again.
In between, although they passed through vast deserts and swamps, in the face of Ning Cheng’s Lower Grade Flying True Armament, ordinary flying demonic beasts could not even catch up. Occasionally, some very fast demonic beasts were easily killed by Ning Cheng.
As soon as Ning Cheng arrived at the Angry Axe Valley, he knew that the formation prohibitions that some great powers had set up in the Angry Axe Valley back then were useless. At this moment, the entrance was still white and foggy, but there was no longer any roaring sound. On top of that there was an area of buildings around, with many cultivators coming and going.
After letting Ning Ruolan enter the small world, Ning Cheng arrived near the entrance. He had not even gotten close to the area of buildings when his divine sense saw a not-so-small teleportation array. A cultivator of the Origin Building realm, dressed in yellow, was guarding the side of the transmission array.
“May I ask if this is the teleportation formation to enter the Angry Axe Valley?” Ning Cheng walked next to this cultivator and asked.
“There are notices on the side, you can’t read them yourself.” In the face of Ning Cheng’s enquiry, the cultivator in charge next to the transmission array pointed to the notice.
Ning Cheng had already noticed the notice on the side that any cultivator entering the Angry Axe Valley would require fifty thousand top quality spirit stones. When they were transmitted out, they also needed 50,000 upper grade spirit stones. Moreover, Ning Cheng had also noticed that at this time, there was no longer any cultivation restriction in the Angry Axe Valley, so anyone could enter.
“May I ask. Is there just one teleportation formation to enter the Raging Axe Valley in Jiazhou?” Ning Cheng asked once again after reading the notice.
The male cultivator in charge of the teleportation array seemed to have seen that Ning Cheng was somewhat extraordinary. Suppressing his temperament, he replied. “Of course not, there are two in total, apart from here, there is another one in the Southern Continent.”
“In that case, if one wants to travel from 郏 continent to South Continent, then one only needs to teleport from here into Raging Axe Valley first, and then teleport out from another teleportation formation in Raging Axe Valley?” Ning Cheng knew that it was very difficult to travel from the Intermediate Continent to the High Continent, don’t look at how easily he had come over. That was because of his high cultivation level and his lower grade flying true weapon.
The male cultivator in charge of the teleportation array didn’t have much patience this time and said with a sneer, “You can try going to the southern continent.”
Not to mention that the distance from the Jia Continent Teleportation Array in the Raging Axe Valley to the South Continent Teleportation Array was not shorter than walking outside at all, and the demonic beasts inside the Raging Axe Valley were more powerful than outside. What’s more, it was difficult to use flying magic treasures in the Raging Axe Valley.
Ning Cheng did not ask any more questions and directly paid 50,000 spirit stones and entered the Raging Axe Valley.
After coming out of the teleportation array inside the Furious Axe Valley, Ning Cheng realised that. It was even livelier inside than outside, and some simple shops had even been established by the teleportation array. Many cultivators came and went. The Furious Axe Valley had been treated as an open secret realm.
However, most of these cultivators did not have a high cultivation level, such as Ning Cheng’s cultivation level of the fifth level of the God Shaping Realm, which was already considered a top expert here.
It was indeed difficult to advance in the Angry Axe Valley with flying magic treasures, and for Ning Cheng, he did not need flying magic treasures at all. The speed of the Sky Cloud Twin Wings was easier and faster than any flying magic treasure. The map Meng Jingxiu had given him was clear, and with the speed of the Sky Cloud Twin Wings, it took Ning Cheng just three days to reach the place drawn on Meng Jingxiu’s map.
The place Meng Jingxiu said he had drawn on the map was a boundless forest, and according to the markings on the map, there were countless lakes inside this forest, and if he found a cross-shaped lake, he would be there. And this cross-shaped lake has a direction, which is based on the direction of these trees. Every day, for a few breaths, these trees would be blown in the same direction by the wind, and if you follow this direction, you are bound to find the cross-shaped lake.
After Ning Cheng entered this wood, he deliberately felt it for a whole day. As the day passed, not to mention feeling the trees being blown in one direction, he didn’t even perceive half of the wind.
Ning Cheng did not continue to wait foolishly, his divine sense was much stronger than that of an ordinary cultivator. He could find the Cross Lake just as well in this place without relying on the direction of the trees.
The woods were truly immense, nearly ten thousand miles in circumference. Even so, on the fourth day, Ning Cheng still found the Cross Lake.
This Cross Lake was much larger than Ning Cheng had imagined, consisting of two intersecting lakes that went out nearly twenty to thirty miles in length.
According to what the map said, the Lanwei Immortal Residence was at the bottom of the lake right in the centre of the Cross Lake. In this place there was a huge stone ten feet square, and standing on this stone one could feel the Immortal Mansion. As for how to enter the Immortal Mansion and how to get it, it was not on the map.
Before reaching the bottom of this lake, the things on the map given to him by Meng Jingxiu were all traceable, which made Ning Cheng’s heart very excited.
When Ning Cheng actually stood at the bottom of the lake, he was disappointed. He did not see the boulder that was ten feet in circumference as stated on the map, there was only some sand and gravel at the bottom of this lake. The map said that he could only feel the Immortal Mansion if he stood on the boulder, how could he feel it without even seeing the boulder?
Ning Cheng’s divine sense swept out to take a closer look and he soon discovered a concealment formation here. The formation level was surprisingly not low, it was also a level seven formation. If his formation level hadn’t also reached this level, he wouldn’t have been able to see it.
As Ning Cheng threw out a few formation flags, the concealment formation was quickly revealed. It was only at this moment that Ning Cheng could see clearly that this should not be considered a formation, it was merely a formation disk. This concealment array plate concealed this area, so if one was not proficient in array formations, one would not really be able to see it.
At the centre of the concealing array disc Ning Cheng found a storage bag, which Ning Cheng knew at a glance that someone had deliberately left behind. This array disc had definitely not been placed for a long time, and Ning Cheng knew without thinking that even if there was an immortal palace, it had been short-changed by someone.
Ning Cheng’s divine sense opened the storage pouch, and inside the pouch was a small jade box, and the dense spiritual qi could not be locked even in the jade box, and it was spilling outwards. Ning Cheng hastily opened the storage bag and three crystal stones appeared in front of Ning Cheng.
This …… Ning Cheng almost shouted out loud, he was too familiar with this item, when Old Gas had given him a broken one, it was this kind of crystal stone. He relied on that broken crystal stone and his cultivation level rose wildly, now he had unexpectedly obtained three more such crystals, this was simply too happy.
Ning Cheng hurriedly put away the jade box, took out that jade slip, and swept his divine sense in.
“Brother Ning, I took the stuff. I had no intention of staying alive when I came in to look for something. Unexpectedly, as soon as I came here, the thing was claimed by me. Unfortunately, my cultivation level is limited and I can only get six of these crystals, and I can only get the others when my cultivation level rises. Originally, I should have given all the things to Brother Ning, but I must take revenge for my parents’ blood.
After my parents were killed, I went to look for my big brother, who had already left. I couldn’t speak to those big clans either, so I had to find a way to come here on my own. Thank you for the magic treasure you had someone bring me. Without that magic treasure, I wouldn’t have been able to come here at all. If the one who got my stuff is not my big brother Ning, then forget it, well-known not with!”
Ning Cheng put away the jade slip, and while he was happy for Meng Jingxiu in his heart, he was also a little sad. He had met Meng Jingxiu’s mother once before, when Meng Jingxiu’s father was still in the 郏洲修士军. How many years has it been? Meng Jingxiu’s parents had something happen to them. When Meng Jingxiu said he couldn’t talk to the big clans, he should be referring to Nalan Ruxue.
Ning Cheng also knew that even if Meng Jingxiu could speak to Nalan Ruxue, she would not be able to go to the Le Continent. The good thing was that Meng Jingxiu had received the Immortal Mansion Recognition, and Ning Cheng believed that with these things, with her qualifications, her cultivation would progress even faster than herself.
……
After leaving the Angry Axe Valley, Ning Cheng did not immediately return to the Ping Continent, he went to the Pu Bu Sea Island in the Yixing Sea. He had come here, one to inquire about who had actually killed Meng Jingxiu’s parents, and another to see Empty Pengpeng. When he escaped back then, Empty Pengpeng had helped him a lot. What’s more, he had also put up a name of a five-star young capital in the Yizheng camp.
Ning Cheng didn’t make too much of a show, he used an ordinary spirit craft airship, and the airship was stopped at the outskirts of Pu Buhai Island.
Ning Cheng did not know if his own Five Star Young Capital was still there after he had left the Yizheng Camp for so many years. So when an army of cultivators came up, he directly took out his own Five Star Young Capital shoulder tag and handed it over, “I am Ning Cheng, the Five Star Young Capital of the Yizheng Camp ……”
“Yizheng Battalion?” The two cultivator soldiers who stopped Ning Cheng were obviously a little surprised.
“What’s the problem? I’m returning from the Rule Road because I was delayed for a few years inside the Rule Road.” Ning Cheng explained anyway.
After the two cultivator armies that had stopped Ning Cheng confirmed that Ning Cheng’s shoulder tag was correct, they gave a sympathetic look and invited Ning Cheng to enter Pu Buhai Island.
The first thing Ning Cheng did was to arrive at his Shao Du Mansion, but he did not see his familiar henchman, Yang Hong Hou, nor did he see Nan Yue Fang, whom he had gifted a black and silver warship to, only a few cultivator soldiers whom he did not know at all were guarding the entrance of the Shao Du Mansion.
When Ning Cheng’s divine sense swept into the Shao Du Mansion, he found that none of the formations and prohibitions he had set up back then were left. Not only had all of them been cancelled, but new prohibitions had also been laid out.
Ning Cheng wasn’t angry about this, this Shao Du Mansion was originally a gift from Empty Peng Peng. Knowing that he had escaped, it was normal for Empty Pengpeng to put this Shao Du Fu away and give it to another man. He wouldn’t stay here anyway, he would come and see it this time and leave, it didn’t matter if he had the Shao Du Fu or not.
The Shao Du Mansion was no longer his, so Ning Cheng simply did not enter the Shao Du Mansion, he went straight to the General Palace of Empty Peng Peng. What made Ning Cheng even more puzzled was that Empty Pengpeng’s General Palace had been sealed, and looking at the marks on it, it had been sealed for quite some time.
Ning Cheng felt something bad, Kong Pengpeng had probably committed something not so trivial, otherwise with Kong Pengpeng’s status it should not have been like this.
“May I ask if you are Ning Shao Du?” A voice that was somewhat unsure called out.
When Ning Cheng saw that the person who called out to him was a soldier who was only at the early stage of True Condensation, he hurriedly said, “That’s right, I’m Ning Cheng, the five-star Young Capital of the Yizheng Camp.”
