Ruan Mingshu did not explain it very carefully, and Ning Cheng understood what she meant, which was that if he obtained the Time Stone and did not hand it over, it could also be found out. It was a pity that his Xuanhuang Pearl could not keep things for a long time, otherwise he would have placed the Time Stone in the Xuanhuang Pearl. The Xuanhuang Pearl was a creation treasure, and it was absolutely impossible for anyone to be able to find out if he placed the Time Stone in the Xuanhuang Pearl.
Why did the Xuanhuang Pearl have to wait until the five elemental origins were complete, before this could store something? As Ning Cheng thought of this, he felt more and more in his heart that there must be a way to keep things in the Xuanhuang Pearl, or at least temporarily in the Xuanhuang Pearl.
His Xuanhuang Pearl now had two originals, water and fire, in addition to the Xuanhuang Origin. Couldn’t he use items from the other three origins to set up an array and store the items in this array? The best origin item was naturally the Origin Crystal.
But a single Fire Origin Crystal was worth a fortune, so how could he use the money to buy the other three Origin Crystals? Besides, even if he had the money, he wouldn’t be able to buy them, would he? Perhaps it was not necessary to use Origin Crystals, I wonder if it would be possible to set up a Five Element Formation?
“Senior Brother Ning, don’t think too much about the Time Stones, there aren’t many of these things even in the Time Desolate Domain. It’s normal to not get one in ten years. Last time you left after just one day at the Dao Discourse venue, I did hear a lot about it, we can discuss it.” Ruan Mingshu took the initiative to digress, she had not expected Ning Cheng to be thinking about how to conceal the Time Stone.
“Sure.” Ning? I? This? Read?xstxt Cheng happily agreed, no matter what, Ruan Mingshu had always learned more than he did.
……
Ning Cheng’s insights are amazing, Ruan Mingshu’s foundation is thick, and the two of them talked all night. The two of them are still not finished. Both had benefited greatly.
Early the next morning. The ban on Ruan Mingshu’s room was touched, Ruan Mingshu opened the ban and Zhaoyan Xiang appeared at the door of the room, “Mingshu, today the Time Desolate Domain opens, let’s go to Man Lun Square together ……”
Zhaoyan Xiang’s words abruptly paused as he saw Ning Cheng who walked out of Ruan Mingshu’s room.
“You stayed here last night?” Zhaoyan Xiang’s brows immediately furrowed as he stared at Ning Cheng and asked.
Ruan Mingshu was the one he had his heart set on. It was the one he had taken as his future dao partner and was preparing to go to the cosmic stars together. Now that another man had walked out of the room of the woman he desired, no matter what had been done or not, this kind of thing made it difficult for him to calm down.
Ning Cheng ignored Zhaoyan Xiang, no matter if the guy who had harmed him last time was Zhaoyan Xiang or not, he would have to find this guy sooner or later and ask him about it. Ruan Mingshu looked like she still had some connections with this Zhaoyan Xiang, so there was no need for him to talk nonsense now. What’s more, the purpose of Ruan Mingshu’s approach to him was not very clear either.
Ruan Mingshu’s face was calm as she said, “Yes, Senior Brother Yanxiang. I talked with Senior Brother Ning all night yesterday. I benefited greatly.”
Zhaoyan Xiang’s slightly fluctuating mind suddenly calmed down as he smiled faintly. “In that case, then let’s go to the square together.”
……
As the most important square in Man Lun Starland, Man Lun Square could be described as more than just large. There were all sorts of star-space teleportation arrays and all sorts of peripheral facilities for cultivators.
Ning Cheng and the three of them had come early, but more cultivators had come even earlier than them. When they arrived, the Man Lun Square was already black with cultivators. With so many powerful people here, there was not much noise and clamour. The cultivators who had come here knew very well in their hearts that this place was a place that the Man Lun Emperor paid great attention to, and once they caused trouble here, they would be waiting to die.
Ruan Mingshu was very low-key as she led Ning Cheng and Zhaoyan Xiang to stand in a place in the square that was not very conspicuous.
This time, the Man Lun Starry Sky’s Star Peeping Genius Selection Competition was a big event, and the Man Lun Grand Emperor had personally presided over it. Now that the Man Lun Emperor had not yet come over, some cultivators were gathered together and whispered, and there were absolutely no loud and boisterous people.
Ruan Mingshu and Zhaoyan Xiang seemed to be arguing about something, Ning Cheng was not willing to get involved in this kind of conversation and took the initiative to walk to the other side.
“This friend, if I remember correctly, you are also from the Leland Star River, your name should be Ning Cheng, right?” Ning Cheng had just stood still when a gentle voice rang out in his ears.
Ning Cheng turned around and saw a Star Gathering cultivator with a slim figure and three star wheels on his back that were very conspicuous, this was obviously a strong person in the Star Gathering cultivation level.
“That’s right.” Ning Cheng replied simply.
This star gathering cultivator clapped his hands and said, “Get to know each other, my name is Fu Shoukeng, we are both from the Leland Star River. Seriously, it’s really remarkable that you managed to escape the rat tide, congratulations. I was also on that warship at that time, if I didn’t have a Star Transport Talisman, I would have been dead if so many Star Devouring Rats had swarmed over.”
Ning Cheng smiled lightly, “Then congratulations to you as well.”
“By the way, back when I was in the Whirling Jade City, there was an auction where a map of the Time Desolate Domain was auctioned off, do you know about that auction?” Fu Shoukeng was very talkative and found the topic in an instant.
However, Ning Cheng was immediately wary in his heart, he thought of what Ruan Mingshu had told him earlier, that someone was looking for the participating cultivators from Leland Star River, saying that they were looking for a map, could it be this guy? Was he the one looking for the map that he had obtained at the auction?
Ning Cheng didn’t hesitate before answering, “I really don’t know then, I’ve heard that there are often Time Desolate Domain maps for sale at the auctions in Whirling Jade City, and I don’t know which one you’re talking about.”
Fu Shoukeng explained, “I know that at that time there were often maps being put up for auction at auctions, and initially, a few were sold for ten million green coins. But then everyone knew it was a fake and very few people bought them. I’m not talking about that, but there was one auction where one was actually sold for 110 million, is that the auction you know?”
“I don’t know.” Ning Cheng replied without hesitation.
“Really don’t know?” These four words carried a harsh killing intent, which clearly did not come from Fu Shoukeng, but from behind Ning Cheng.
Ning Cheng did not panic and turned around, a cultivator with five Star Wheels on his back was staring at him, this cultivator carried a harsh and incomparable killing intent, which all locked around Ning Cheng’s body. It was this cultivator who had asked those four words just now. From the Star Wheel behind him, Ning Cheng knew that this person was at least an Immortal Realm cultivator.
A chill appeared in Ning Cheng’s eyes as he suddenly shouted aloud. “Why as a cultivator participating in the Man Lun Starry Sky’s Star Peeping Genius Selection Tournament. Already standing on the sacred Man Lun Square. And someone wants to kill me? To lock me with such a powerful killing intent?”
The cultivator with the killing intent had obviously not expected Ning Cheng to dare to shout so loudly in Man Lun Square and still say that someone was trying to kill him. This cultivator’s eyes instantly panicked, if he knew that Ning Cheng would do this, he would not dare to do such a thing even if Ning Cheng slapped him a hundred times.
“You ……” The cultivator was so angry that he couldn’t even utter a single word.
Ning Cheng stared at this cultivator with cold eyes and said, “A mere Immortal Realm mole, how dare you threaten me here.”
A Nian Xing cultivator said that his opponent was a mere Undying Realm mole. This Undying Realm cultivator actually did not dare to refute.
“Who dares to make a move here?” Without waiting for this Immortal Realm to speak again, a grey-robed cultivator was already standing in front of Ning Cheng.
“Senior, this is this person. Just now he revealed a strong killing intent behind me, locked me with his killing intent, and threatened me with his words.” Ning Cheng pointed at the Immortality Realm cultivator who had just locked onto him with his killing intent and said to the visitor with a cupped fist.
This grey-robed cultivator had already reached the Heavenly Realm, and even if Ning Cheng did not say anything, he could still feel the killing intent that had not yet dissipated here. He raised his hand and gave a slap, and before this Immortal Realm cultivator could distinguish a single word, he was slapped into pieces by this grey-robed cultivator.
“Who dares to make a move in Man Lun Square. Show your killing intent and die.” After this grey-robed cultivator killed the Immortal Realm cultivator who threatened Ning Cheng. He shouted coldly, before his body flashed and disappeared without a trace.
Fu Shoukeng stared viciously at Ning Cheng, he could not imagine that Ning Cheng simply did not follow the usual rules and directly called for a Heavenly Realm powerhouse.
Ning Cheng didn’t even bother to pay attention to Fu Shoukeng and greeted Ruan Mingshu who was in a hurry to come over. He was all set to enter the Time Desolate Domain soon, and would spend ten years in it. It would be strange for him to be polite when this kind of fellow, whom he didn’t even know, also showed killing intent towards him, and when he was able to make use of the location.
“What’s wrong?” Ruan Mingshu asked in a small voice in Ning Cheng’s ear.
“Nothing, the Great Emperor is here.” Ning Cheng replied.
The Great Emperor Man Lun had indeed come, and no one knew when he had arrived. His appearance this time was completely different from his previous appearance at the Daoist Discourse venue, there was no trace of him. It was as if he had been here in the first place and had only just shown up.
“Great Emperor Eternal!” Deafening voices came from the square, not organized by anyone, but neatly and unmistakably.
The Great Emperor Man Lun stood on the high altar in the middle of the square and said aloud with a slight nod, “I am very happy today, not only because today is the day the Time Desolate Domain opens, but also because ninety-nine percent of the geniuses from the entire Star Peeping Realm of my Man Lun Starry Sky have come to this place.
Perhaps in the future, there will be great emperors among you, and eternal powerhouses appearing to fight for the glory of my Man Lun Starry Sky. But no strong person can just sit at home, they have to go out of the planet, out of the star river, out of the starry sky, out of the universe ……”
“Manlen the Great Eternal!” An even more enthusiastic call rang out.
A very strange feeling suddenly welled up in Ning Cheng’s heart, he felt that the sky-shaking sounds of worship in the square would make Man Lun the Great even taller. This was perhaps an illusion, yet it was actually arising in his mind.
At this moment he remembered the wishing power he had seen before; was this also a type of wishing power?
The Man Lun Emperor laughed and said even more loudly, “Today I am here to announce that your future exit from the universe will start from the Man Lun Star Space, right from the Time Desolate Domain. Although there won’t be many geniuses who can represent our Man Lun Starry Sky into the universe to compete, I still believe that our Man Lun Starry Sky can achieve the honour it deserves.
The Time Wasteland will be open for ten years, and your achievements will be judged by the size of the Time Stones you receive. Ten years will pass in a flash, I will now take all the geniuses who have participated in the Time Desolate Domain trials into the Time Desolate Domain, let us meet again in ten years!”
“Great Emperor Eternal!” The square was completely filled with such wild cries of adoration, and it seemed that every single cultivator was crazy at this moment.
