There was no sound around, a dead silence. It was true that there were many crises inside the Thousand Ganges Forest, but even if there were many crises, it was not so deadly silent. Ning Cheng suddenly felt a little hairy in his heart, and he frowned for a moment, feeling that something was outrageous.
Even if his divine sense and cultivation were suppressed, he was still a Heavenly Plane realm starry sky cultivator. With his strength, destroying an ordinary planet was not a difficult task, so how could he feel this way?
A “thud” sounded abruptly in this deadly silent place, as if an iron cone had blasted Ning Cheng’s chest, and Ning Cheng’s heart gushed, as if a mouthful of blood was about to spurt out.
What a weird place, Ning Cheng finally understood why those three old guys didn’t come after him, it looked like those three guys knew that this place was dangerous and didn’t dare to continue following in.
Ning Cheng was about to retreat with Tian Muwan and the blue-skirted female cultivator between his legs, and then he realized that he couldn’t remember which direction he had come from.
Ning Cheng hurriedly took out the directional jade slip that Bao Xie had given him and found that there were a few small words around the location that flashed on the jade slip, which was none other than the Ancestral Treasury Altar.
The flashing represented his current location, and the fact that his location was flashing around the Ancestral Treasury Altar meant that this was the Ancestral Treasury Altar.
He had intended to go to the Ancestral Treasury Altar, but he had not expected to inadvertently come here first.
Ning Cheng put away the jade slip, he wanted to exit first. Even if he was going to come here, he still had to settle the two sick people in his hands.
Just at this moment, the blue-skirted female cultivator that was clamped in his arms suddenly struggled a little.
Awake? Ning Cheng was about to speak when another “dong ……” sound came.
Ning Cheng once again suppressed the surge in his heart, but the blue-skirted female cultivator in his arms could not guard her mind and opened her mouth to spurt out an arrow of blood, fainting once again.
Ning Cheng no longer dared to stay and retreated rapidly.
It seemed that something sleeping was awakened by him, the thumping sound became more and more intensive, “Thumping ……” amidst this terrifying thumping sound, Ning Cheng knew that there was no way for him to exit. It seemed like there was only way in and no way out of this place. He wandered around for half a day and was still around the Ancestral Treasury Altar, just look at the jade slip of directions and you will know.
Sensing that the blue-skirted female cultivator was showing signs of waking up again, Ning Cheng’s divine sense hurriedly searched around. Even though his divine sense was suppressed to a great extent, Ning Cheng found a canyon in a hurry, which had a deep and dark hole in it. Ning Cheng did not give it a second thought and rushed straight in.
He was afraid that this blue-skirted female cultivator would wake up again and be injured once more by that thumping sound.
As soon as he entered the canyon, Ning Cheng threw out formation flags and kept setting up some isolation formations.
The “dong ……” sound came again, but this sound was blocked by Ning Cheng’s formation, and when it reached Ning Cheng’s ears, it no longer had the shock it had before.
The blue-skirted female cultivator struggled for a bit and said in a weak tone, “Ning Xiaocheng, please let me down.”
“I’m calling Ning Cheng now, wait a little longer.” Ning Cheng continued to run inside, and it was only a few minutes later that he stopped at a wider place while putting down the blue-skirted female cultivator.
After raising his hand and throwing out a few formation flags to set up a bright light formation and a few defensive formations, Ning Cheng only turned back.
The blue-skirted female cultivator looked at Ning Cheng with astonishment and uncertainty, as if she had seen something most amazing.
Previously, Ning Cheng had been running away and did not care, but at this moment, when he saw the blue-skirted female cultivator again, he was immediately embarrassed. Like Tian Muwan, the blue-skirted female cultivator’s clothes could not cover her body at all, revealing a large area of snow white on her front chest and waist.
“Your formation level is actually so high? The formation you set up at the Water Family before was ……” The blue-skirted female cultivator did not go on, she knew that she did not need to say anything further, Ning Cheng had definitely not brought out his true level when he set up the formation at the Water Family before.
She naturally knew Ning Cheng’s age, which was the same size as Tian Muwan. For a cultivator, this age was simply too young to be young. Such a young cultivator, not only did he have a good cultivation level, but his formation level had also reached such a high level, was this a demon?
She was not a casual cultivator who knew nothing, she knew that the Dao of Formation, like the Dao of Dan and the Dao of Weaponry in general, had to spend a lot of time delving into it if one wanted to have some success. Especially for the Dao of Formation, it took even more time. The life span of a cultivator was indeed much longer than that of an ordinary person. A cultivator with a longer life span would certainly have less time to cultivate if he spent all his time studying these things.
That is why it is said that cultivators who have achieved powerful results in cultivation are generally unlikely to achieve much in the Dao of Formation and the Dao of Dan Weapons, except for those very few geniuses of geniuses.
Could it be that this Ning Cheng was one of those very few geniuses? If that was really the case, Mu Wan had a good eye.
She subconsciously glanced at Mu Wan, and when she saw that Tian Mu Wan was not clothed and even the red beans on her chest were half exposed, she immediately screamed and covered her chest, “Ning Cheng, you rascal, turn your head away ……”
Ning Cheng, who was about to speak, hurriedly turned his head away, this blue dress female cultivator’s voice was simply comparable to that thud.
“Wait …… do you have any clothes, lend me two sets.” When the blue-skirted female cultivator said this, her tone had eased down. It was evident that she also knew that Ning Cheng could not be blamed for this matter. Not to mention looking, she had been pinned in Ning Cheng’s arms for a few days.
Ning Cheng threw out a ring to the blue-skirted female cultivator, “There are clothes inside and some pills, you can use them first while I set up a few more formations.”
An hour passed, and when Ning Cheng came back in, both the blue-skirted female cultivator and Tian Muwan had changed their clothes. Tian Muwan had also woken up, and when she saw Ning Cheng enter, she immediately lowered her head.
The blue-skirted female cultivator took out a white key and handed it to Ning Cheng, “Thank you for saving us twice, let’s return this key to you.”
Ning Cheng swept his divine sense for a moment and knew that this key was none other than the white Time Forever Hope Key. He put the key away without any politeness at all, it was originally his.
“Little Cheng, thank you ……” Tian Muwan bit her lip, she did not understand how Ning Cheng had saved them, but she had understood that Ning Cheng’s strength and secrets were far stronger than she had imagined.
“No need to be polite, it’s something small.” Ning Cheng smiled, sunny as ever.
Such familiar words, such a familiar smile ……
Tian Muwan looked at Ning Cheng’s vaguely somewhat familiar sunny smile, her thoughts had long stretched into the distance.
The mudslide came crashing down, and she hid in fear by a not-so-large tree, completely lost in her assertion. It was the sunny boy who rushed over and picked her up on his back and ran. He was able to escape with her on his back and the small tree she had previously taken shelter in was submerged under the mudslide.
If it hadn’t been for him, there would have been one more of her under that mudslide.
He put her down carefully and pointed a short distance away and said, “Your companion is just ahead ……”
“Thank you, my name is Tian Muwan.”
“My name is Ning Xiaocheng.”
“Xiaocheng, thank you ……”
“You’re welcome, it’s something small.”
……
Time passes, and many years later, it’s still the same conversation. Many years later, he is still the same, and she is equally still her. But there is always something missing in between.
What exactly is missing? When exactly was it missing?
Was it missing after she had placed the beaded flower that Ning Cheng had given her in another man’s hands and that man had thrown it down the drain?
“Forget about losing it, you can just buy me one when you have time, let’s go.” Tian Muwan’s face grew paler and paler, perhaps it was missing when she said this to another man in front of Ning Cheng. No, it should be said that it was thrown away.
If there was no Zeng Jiyun, would she and he still be like this? Tian Muwan shook her head, she knew that even without Zeng Jiyun, she and he would still be like this.
In her mind, she seemed to be taking care of Ning Cheng’s face at every turn when she was with him, but in fact, the feeling of superiority that she had in her heart over Ning Cheng was still there, she just didn’t perceive it herself anymore.
If not, how could she have taken out a bank card and handed it to Ning Cheng after he had disappeared and returned? Would she have thought that she and Ning Cheng were not from the same world anymore? She would have asked Ning Cheng not to call her Mu Wan, but her full name? Would she have been counting on Ning Cheng being alive, but not coming back to explain?
In fact, did she give Ning Cheng the chance to explain? She pulled out that kind of overbearing emotion, Ning Cheng’s pride she did not know? What was wrong with Ning Cheng’s first question to her about Ruo Lan? If it was really love, what she counted on after seeing Ning Cheng again was not that, but happiness, happiness that Ning Cheng was still alive.
But she didn’t.
She was just a mere third level Qi cultivator, and it occurred to her that she was not from the same world as Ning Cheng. In fact, at that time, I was afraid that Ning Cheng’s realm was countless times higher than hers.
The lost bead flower was recovered by her, and it was still the same bead flower, but it was no longer the same white colour.
“Mu Wan, are you alright?” When the blue-skirted female cultivator saw Tian Mowan staring blankly at Ning Cheng, she shook Tian Mowan with some concern.
Tian Muwan came back to her senses and bit her lips again, her voice a little hoarse as she said, “Sister, I’m fine.”
The blue-skirted female cultivator nodded and did not continue to ask Tian Muwan, she knew almost everything between Tian Muwan and Ning Cheng, and it was inappropriate to ask at this time.
She turned her head to stare at Ning Cheng and asked, “Ning Cheng, as far as I know, Earth and this place are not even in the same realm. Not to mention you, even I cannot come directly from Earth to this place, so how did you get here?”
Ning Cheng smiled lightly, “This is my business, don’t bother. Just like how you came here, I didn’t ask either, did I?”
Although what Ning Cheng said was unpleasant, it made sense. It was inherently impolite to ask about other people’s privacy.
The blue-skirted female cultivator giggled, “Fine, then I won’t pry into your privacy. Let me tell you, the rules are incomplete here, and the same cultivation level is much weaker than in other realms. How about helping my sister find the Du Luo Grass, and my sister will take you out of here to the real cultivation realm?”
