Ning Cheng nodded and said directly, “Indeed, I want to exchange a branch of the Wind Thunder Almond Tree with Senior Sister Jiu Feng, but of course, if Senior Sister Jiu Feng is unwilling to do so, just forget I said anything. Apart from that, I have two other things. That is how Senior Sister Jiu Feng escaped from the Sacred Hall of Shadows, and the third thing is that I want to exchange that talisman with Senior Sister Jiu Feng.”
Calling Senior Sister Yi Jiufeng, that was Ning Cheng’s desire to pull together the relationship with Yi Jiufeng. He could tell that Yi Jiufeng and Piercing Heart Tower were not the kind of people who were good enough to wear the same trousers.
Yi Jiufeng sighed and said, “I no longer have my Wind and Thunder Almond with me, but I did keep a branch.”
Ning Cheng looked at Yi Jiufeng in confusion, he somewhat did not understand the meaning of Yi Jiufeng’s words.
Seeing Ning Cheng’s confusion, Yi Jiufeng simply said, “My Wind Lightning Apricot and that one talisman were given to the Piercing Heart House. Not only me, but also the Equuschick Tianji and Qiao Kairui have both given their things to the Heart Piercing House.”
Ning Cheng asked in a deep voice, “Is it true that the Piercing Heart Tower said that it could take you all out of the Phantom Shadow Holy Hall?”
Yi Jiufeng nodded, “In fact, he did manage to do it. If I’m not wrong, both Equuschick Tianji and Qiao Kairui also returned to the Demon Domain and Demon Domain long ago.”
“So the Piercing Heart Tower testimony is not in the Heart Tower Emperor Mountain, but in the Phantom Shadow Sanctuary?” Ning Cheng asked once again. If the Heart Piercing Tower did not attest to the Dao, how could they take the crowd with them?
Yi Jiufeng shook his head straight away, “I don’t think so, if I’m not wrong, the Piercing Heart Tower did indeed leave the Phantom Shadow Sacred Hall and return to the Heart Tower Emperor Mountain before it succeeded in attaining enlightenment. According to the situation at that time, we wouldn’t have been able to get away at all. I don’t know how it happened, but we heard angry shouts from outside, and then the power that bound us suddenly diminished. At this time, Piercing Heart Tower took out a talisman, which he said could break open the place and let everyone go, but of course, it came with a condition.”
Ning Cheng came to some understanding, he even suspected that the reason why Piercing Heart Tower and the others were able to leave might still be because of him. He had attracted the powerful existence behind the First Naive Bridge, allowing the Heart Piercing Tower and the others to take advantage of it.
“So, the path of life and the path of death are both heading to one place? Did Man Lun and the others come out?” Ning Cheng continued to ask.
“That’s right, the dangers in the middle of the Life Path and the Death Path are different, but the place where they are ultimately trapped is the same. In other words, if it wasn’t for the talisman of the Piercing Heart Building, whether it was the life path or the death path, it would have been one way to fall. I didn’t see Man Lun, but Mu Hao and Xun Zhi He should have escaped.”
Ning Ruocheng, who was sitting beside Ning Cheng, said disdainfully, “With that appearance of his, he is also considered to be a Dao witness?”
“Ruoqing, what do you mean by shaping the dao? Why isn’t it Dao-shaping? Is there a more powerful realm after Dao-shaping?” Ning Cheng had long since learned from Cang Wei that there were even more powerful realms after the Eternal Realm. However, he had not been exposed to them and really did not know exactly which realms they were.
Hearing Ning Cheng’s words, Yi Jiufeng also listened intently. She knew about the Dao of Proof and above Eternity, but did not know very much about it.
When Ning Ruocheng was asked by Ning Cheng, he immediately frowned and seemed to be about to scratch his hair again.
Ning Cheng hurriedly said, “Ruoqing, if you can’t think of it, don’t think about it, it’s not very important to me.”
Ning Ruocheng gave a hmph and really didn’t continue to think about it, he just said, “When I saw that person called Piercing Heart Tower strike, a cultivation level naturally appeared in my mind, and he seemed to be below that level. I can’t remember exactly what it was, or the scenes that followed.”
Fearing that Ning Ruocheng would continue to scratch his hair, Ning Cheng simply stopped asking.
Yi Jiufeng took out a branch and handed it to Ning Cheng and said, “I had planned to trade with Sovereign Ning, but I just never had the chance. So this time when the Heart Piercing House took away my Wind and Thunder Apricot, I still have a branch here.”
Ning Cheng hurriedly took the branch, and as soon as it reached his hand, the Wind and Lightning aura was pounced upon by him. Ning Cheng was sure that Yi Jiufeng was right, this was the branch of the Wind Thunder Apricot.
Carefully putting the branch away, Ning Cheng took out a drop of Morning Glory Ice Marrow and handed it to Yi Jiufeng before saying, “I know that Senior Sister Jiufeng needs Morning Glory Ice Marrow, if you need anything else, Senior Sister Jiufeng, please say so, as long as I can get it.”
Yi Jiufeng took the jade bottle handed over by Ning Cheng and smiled faintly, “I only need one drop of Morning Glory Ice Marrow, then ……”
Seeing Ning Cheng’s worried look, Yi Jiufeng giggled out loud. Since she had left the Shade Sanctuary, this was the first time she had returned to her original appearance, “And then I would also like to ask Patriarch Ning to be able to help me out once.”
Ning Cheng breathed a sigh of relief and said with certainty, “It will naturally not be a problem if I can help Senior Sister Jiu Feng, I wonder what Senior Sister Jiu Feng wants me to help with?”
“I don’t know yet, in the future if I need Senior Sister Ning’s help, I would ask Senior Sister Ning not to refuse.” Hearing Ning Cheng’s promise, Yi Jiufeng said in an even more relaxed tone. Again, in order to draw closer to Ning Cheng, Yi Jiufeng changed her title.
Having already promised Yi Jiufeng, Ning Cheng would not go back on his promise, “As long as Senior Sister Jiufeng can deliver the news to me in time, I will definitely go and help you once.”
Yi Jiufeng nodded and took out a jade token and a ring and handed them to Ning Cheng, “Senior Brother Ning, this jade token is my divine thought jade token and has no tracking ability. When I send a message, the jade token will shatter and then my location will appear.”
“There is no problem with that, it’s just this ring ……” Ning Cheng was a little puzzled as he took the jade token and did not take the ring in Yi Jiu Feng’s hand.
Yi Jiufeng stuffed the ring into Ning Cheng’s hand as well, “I know that Senior Brother Ning has established the sect for a relatively short period of time and may lack some cultivation resources, this cultivation resource is considered as my support for Senior Brother Ning.”
“Starry Sky Spirit Veins?” Ning Cheng took Yi Jiufeng’s ring, and when he saw what was inside the ring, he was immediately moved.
In the ring that Yi Jiufeng gave him were two Starry Sky Spirit Veins, and they were also very high quality Starry Sky Spirit Veins. Although the purity of the Starry Sky Spiritual Qi in the Starry Sky Spiritual Veins was not as pure as that of the Heng Yuan Dan, it was superior in quantity. Two complete top-grade Starry Sky Spirit Veins were definitely a big deal. This showed that the matter Yi Jiufeng wanted his help with was not simple either.
Yi Jiufeng stood up, “Senior Brother Ning, actually what I want you to help with isn’t that complicated, as long as you can come and lend a hand when someone is dealing with me.”
Even if Yi Jiufeng did not say this, Ning Cheng knew what Yi Jiufeng meant. Who else could deal with Yi Jiufeng, or even dare to deal with Yi Jiufeng, apart from the Heart Piercing House?
Not to mention that he and the Heart Piercing Tower already had a grudge, even if there was no such thing, with Yi Jiufeng’s two Starry Sky Spirit Veins, he would still help Yi Jiufeng.
“Senior Sister Jiu Feng, don’t worry, since I have accepted something from Senior Sister Jiu Feng, then I will definitely step in.” Ning Cheng said without hesitation. He was sure that the Piercing Heart Tower did not dare to move casually lately, and this guy was definitely desperate to close down and solidify his cultivation after he returned.
“Then, thanks a lot Senior Brother Ning, I’m also going back to the Great Divine Sky Astral Plane.” Yi Jiufeng said happily.
Ning Cheng hurriedly asked, “I still have one more thing to ask Senior Sister Jiu Feng, what is the matter with that Life and Death Gate underneath the Phantom Shadow Sacred Hall?”
Hearing Ning Cheng’s words, Yi Jiufeng’s face was slightly ugly, so it was evident that that Life and Death Gate had left her with a somewhat large aftermath. She pondered for just a moment before answering, “I haven’t discussed the matter of the Life and Death Gate with anyone, I just entered the Life Gate. The feeling I got in there was hell, or the nether world. I’ve heard of the Yin Realm, but that kind of cold and terrifying place is far from the Yin Realm, I’m afraid.”
A place that could make Yi Jiufeng, an Eternal Emperor, unnatural to think about, could it be an ordinary Yin Realm? The Yin Realm was at most just ghosts and some soul bodies, and since Yi Jiufeng was already at the Eternal Realm, even billions of Yin souls would not frighten her even half a bit.
Ning Cheng vaguely guessed that what was beneath the Phantom Shadow Sanctuary was not a Yin Realm, he guessed that that place could possibly be the entrance to the Yin Realm, yet it was controlled by a powerful person.
Seeing that even Yi Jiufeng did not know too much, Ning Cheng said thankfully, “Thank you very much, Senior Sister Jiufeng, Senior Sister Jiufeng must also be very worried about the Great Divine Sky Starry Sky, so I will not keep Senior Sister Jiufeng.”
Yi Jiufeng had long wanted to return to the Divine Sky Great Starry Sky, and upon hearing Ning Cheng’s words, she hurriedly bid farewell and left.
“What is the Hall of Phantom Shadows? Is it very dangerous? Is it more dangerous than that big pit in the centre of the Lost Mountain Range?” Only after Yi Jiufeng had left did Ning Ruocheng inquire.
Ning Cheng said with a hmph, “Yes, it is indeed very dangerous, I plan to wait until my cultivation level is higher before I make a trip in.”
Ning Ruocheng said without hesitation, “Then I will accompany you in.”
“If you don’t go in now, you will stay in my cave and cultivate. When your cultivation level has slowly recovered, perhaps you can remember something.”
After saying that, Ning Cheng took one of the two spirit veins given by Yi Jiufeng out, and then handed the ring with only one Star Spirit Vein to Ning Ruocheng, “This Star Spirit Vein is left for you to cultivate, and the other one I will implant under the Xuanhuang Sect.”
With two Starry Sky Spirit Veins for ordinary cultivators to cultivate, they could definitely advance from the middle stage of the Life and Death Realm to the complete Life and Death Realm. Ning Cheng felt that if he wanted to advance to the Perfection of Life and Death realm, these two spirit veins seemed to be somewhat insufficient. Since he could not advance, he might as well take them out to do something more practical.
Ning Ruocheng did not push back, and after receiving the ring given by Ning Cheng, he stayed in Ning Cheng’s cave to cultivate.
Ning Cheng implanted another Starry Sky Spirit Vein under Over Snow City once again, and all the people in Over Snow City could clearly feel the concentration of Starry Sky Spirit Qi soar. The Starry Sky Spiritual Qi in Over Snow City was already much stronger than normal places, and now that it had risen again, it was even more surprising to all the people.
……
Ning Cheng had just placed the starry sky aura veins under Over Snow City, and before he had time to allow the Sky Cloud Twin Wings to advance, he once again sensed Duan Gantai’s trail, and this fellow was quickly rushing to Jiangzhou Star.
This fellow had really come, I wonder what this fellow was doing last time when he took away the Mo Xiang Yi Wine. Thinking of this, Ning Cheng also gave up on the idea of upgrading his Heavenly Cloud Twin Wings and followed it and left the Over Snow City.
Ning Cheng knew very well that Duan Gantai’s means of escape was absolutely top-notch. Even if Ning Ruocheng was called up, he might not be able to keep this b*stard 100%. Once Duan Gantai was allowed to escape, then the Time Hall would not be accessible.
Sensing Duan Gantai’s trajectory as he rapidly approached the Jiangzhou Star, Ning Cheng secretly admired this fellow for being as smart as a loach, and for not using the teleportation array this time.
