A sense of weakness came over Ning Cheng, and the First Naive Bridge in front of him gradually became illusory and finally disappeared.
Ning Cheng was not disappointed, instead he paid attention to the Seven Bridges Realm Book that had landed in his Purple Mansion with surprise. The First Naive Bridge was already under his control, and he could not cast it out in its entirety simply because he was not strong enough.
Moreover, the power of the First Naive Bridge was also greatly beyond his expectations, Ning Cheng preferred this First Naive Bridge to the Five-coloured Star Splitting Arrow. The Five-coloured Star Splitting Arrow was powerful, but it also demanded a little too much of him. His hair was still grey now because of the Yuan Qi damage caused by shooting the Five-coloured Star Splitting Arrow.
In the future, as his strength rose, the power of the First Naive Bridge would only increase. His Seven Bridges Realm Book had five bridges of divine power, which meant that no matter what, he would comprehend at least five of the seven bridges in the future.
It was time to check his rule loam, having comprehended the First Naive Bridge, Ning Cheng was in a good mood and quickly arrived at the place where he had placed the clay.
Before Ning Cheng even picked up the clay, he knew that he had succeeded. The clay he had dropped all carried some rule aura and was clearly moving in the direction he needed.
As long as the clay was no bigger than two fists in size, it had all transformed into Rule Loam, and the slightly larger ones were still in the process of being transformed.
Ning Cheng hurriedly packed these clays that had been transformed into Rule Loam in a jade box, and at the same time put a ban on them. His Xuanhuang Pearl World was not quite the same as the outside world, if these Rule Soils were not put away as early as possible, they would become part of the Earth Rules and become the Earth Roots of the Xuanhuang Pearl World. Once that happened, the rule loam would be useless.
The rule loam in a broken land may not transform into earth veins and roots after countless years, because the rules here are broken. The more time that passes, the bigger the Rule Soil will only get.
Having comprehended the First Naiad Bridge and obtained the Rule Soil, Ning Cheng naturally had to go to the Quest Hall to turn in the quests to earn points.
As soon as Ning Cheng rushed out of the ground, he saw two cultivators in a fierce battle. There were also some cultivators around them watching, and Ning Cheng didn’t even need to go over and ask questions to know that this must be a battle over the matter of the Rule Soil. It looked like searching for the Rule Soil in this place was not a safe thing either, once two people found it at the same time, then a big battle would be unavoidable.
Ning Cheng didn’t like to watch the action in such matters. He didn’t even bother to pay attention to what the two people in the battle looked like and was about to leave the place.
“This senior brother, please help ……” A voice transmission landed in Ning Cheng’s ears, surprisingly, it was a female cultivator’s voice.
“Huh, it’s you?” Ning Cheng turned around and saw this female cultivator who had transmitted the voice, and immediately recognized who the female cultivator who had called out to him was. Six months ago, he had known about the Shattered Land because of two cultivators, a man and a woman. It was the male cultivator who gave him a jade slip of the Broken Land’s profile, and only then did he know that the rule loam here was valuable, and this female cultivator was the one who was with the male cultivator at the beginning.
Only at this moment, this female cultivator’s breath was disordered, and she was obviously injured badly.
Immediately afterwards, Ning Cheng knew why this female cultivator had called out to him and asked for his help. One of the two cultivators in the battle was the one who was with this female cultivator, the same male cultivator who had given him the jade slip.
This female cultivator asked him to help, so she should be helping the male cultivator who was with her before. At this moment, the male cultivator was not only in a disadvantageous position, he was being suppressed by his opponent’s divine ability and was losing ground. Even his domain was in tatters, his body was heavy with blood, and the injuries he had sustained were not weaker than this female cultivator’s at all.
“This senior brother, my couple found a piece of Rule Loam here. He came a little later than us, yet he must share this Rule Loam with us equally, he is really deceiving people too much. Senior brother, if you are willing to help, my couple would rather ……”
This female cultivator had not finished her words when she was stopped by Ning Cheng, “Wait, the Rule Soil is better kept by yourselves.”
After saying that Ning Cheng had already walked up, he knew that this couple had definitely not offended ordinary characters. If it was an ordinary character, someone would have come over to help long ago in the event that they were willing to take out the Rule Soil.
“Stop, both of you, please listen to my words.” Ning Cheng did not make a direct move, his domain pressed through and directly interfered with the two people in the fight.
He was secretly sighing in his heart, he didn’t know how many such things had happened in the Broken Lands. It was like the previous scenario between him and Peng Shan, only that he and Peng Shan had settled it peacefully.
As long as one was not a fool, one would not interfere with such things under normal circumstances.
Ning Cheng, however, had to interfere; to him, this couple had helped him. Even though what the couple had helped him with was not worth mentioning, he could not pretend not to hear it just because what the other party wanted his help with was not a trivial matter.
Ning Cheng’s domain aura was extremely strong, and even though he did not extend his domain at full strength, in front of these two late Eternal cultivators, his domain still directly broke through the domain aura of the two people entangled in the battle.
The surrounding onlooking cultivators all whispered when they saw someone minding their own business. This couple was a scattered cultivator and did not join any alliance. And the one fighting with the couple for the Rule Loam was a member of the Heaven’s Beyond Dao. Although the Heaven’s Beyond Dao was not as powerful as the Scattered Cultivator Alliance, the Dao Witnesses and the Divine Lightning Alliance, it was still an alliance organisation of some renown in Tai Su Market.
Faced with this situation, not to mention not knowing the couple, even those who did, would not necessarily come forward to help.
It was because of this that some people felt strange when they saw Ning Cheng go up to persuade them. Some people were even guessing which alliance Ning Cheng was from, only cultivators from the Grand Alliance would dare to go to persuade a fight for the sake of Rule Loam.
As soon as Ning Cheng’s domain suppressed the past, the male cultivator who had fallen behind seized the opportunity to retreat and landed beside Ning Cheng, while weakly clasping his fist and saying, “Thank you for helping out my friend, Jing Wei Ran is grateful.”
Jing Wei Ran’s breath was not only weak, it was also very unstable, he should have been too heavily injured. After he thanked Ning Cheng, he rushed over to the female cultivator to hold her up and asked eagerly, “Yuling, are you alright?”
“Who are you? Why are you meddling in other people’s private affairs?” The cultivator who was fighting against Jing Weiran was a man with a square face and thick lips, despite also having a late Eternal cultivation, the aura on him was much deeper than Jing Weiran’s.
Without waiting for Ning Cheng to speak, the female cultivator called Yu Ling said loudly, “Jing Wuyan, shame on you. You want to rob by force just because you are from the Heaven’s Beyond Dao? The rule loam was clearly seen by us first, and you have the face to say that it is your own personal matter when you rob it by force?”
The man called Jing Wu Ya didn’t care about Yu Ling’s screaming, he still stared coldly at Ning Cheng and said, “If you don’t say why, then I will take it as you provoking my Heaven’s Beyond Dao. If it is because of a misunderstanding, then my friend will leave now, and I, Jing Wu Ya, will have my revenge later.”
If it wasn’t for the powerful domain aura Ning Cheng had just displayed, he would have made his move long ago.
Ning Cheng laughed coldly in his heart, later retribution? The killing aura on this male cultivator called Jing Wu Ya had almost coalesced into substance. He had used the Heaven’s Beyond Dao to threaten him again, there was absolutely no half-meaning of wanting to retaliate later in it. Even if he backed off now, I was afraid that this feud would be settled. When Jing Wu Ya finished off the couple, I was afraid that his retribution would be to hunt him down and kill him.
Ning Cheng said in a flat tone, “Jing Wei Ran and his wife are my friends, so please look at this for my sake and let this matter drop. If you, Daoist, feel that there is a loss, you can ……”
Originally, Ning Cheng had intended to let the two Jing Weiran make slight compensation, after all, the two Jing Weiran were no match for others. The reason why he said this was not because he was afraid of Jing Wuya, but for the sake of Jing Weiran’s two people. After all, if he compensated Jing Wei Ran, the matter would be over. Otherwise, as long as the two Jing Weiran were here to survive, they would have to face the threat of the Heavenly Plane Dao.
For himself, he wasn’t afraid of the Heaven’s Beyond Dao, yet he didn’t want to form a feud with the Heaven’s Beyond Dao over this matter either.
It was just that before Ning Cheng could spell out the latter condition, Jing Wu Ya sneered, “Your face? Your face is nothing? Brother Yu Lian, join hands with me to finish off this thing that doesn’t know how high the sky is.”
As Jing Wu Ya’s voice fell, a lightning-like figure landed behind Ning Cheng and surrounded him with the two of them, one in front of the other. This was also a late Eternal stage powerhouse, and the aura on his body was not weaker than Jing Wu Ya’s at all.
After this cultivator called Yu Lian arrived, he did not even say half a word of nonsense, he directly sacrificed his magic treasure and his domain pressed furiously towards Ning Cheng, his naked killing intent was exposed in this domain.
Ning Cheng’s face sank, he knew that this matter would not end well. He had always been a person who did not like nonsense, and since the other party wanted to kill him, he had long since stopped thinking that both sides could take a step back.
An Extreme Dao Artifact Lance was sacrificed, and Ning Cheng’s domain aura once again soared, this time no longer in the same persuasive state as before.
Ning Cheng’s principle was that if he could refrain from making a move, he should not do so. Once he did, he should not show any mercy.
When the surrounding cultivators saw the Extreme Dao Artifact Lance that Ning Cheng had sacrificed, most of them shook their heads speechlessly, and some of them could not bear to continue watching.
In the Tai Su Market, even a poor late Eternal cultivator would have a lower grade divine weapon, or even a semi-divine weapon if not better. It was really uncommon to see someone like Ning Cheng, who still used a Dao weapon lance.
When Jing Wei Ran saw that Ning Cheng had sacrificed a Dao Artifact Lance, he hurriedly sacrificed his magic treasure and was about to rush up to help. Ning Cheng suddenly spoke out, “Brother Jing doesn’t need to come up, just stay here to heal your wounds and help me press the formation in the meantime, I still have something to ask later.”
Jing Wei Ran froze for a moment, but he listened to Ning Cheng’s words and did not go up. He was also at the end of his rope at this moment, if it wasn’t for Ning Cheng’s help, he must have fallen long ago.
The cultivators watching the battle naturally could not see Ning Cheng’s domain suppression, but Jing Wu Ya and the other cultivator who had just arrived in the domain intertwining clearly felt the powerful suppression of Ning Cheng’s domain.
Jing Wu Ya’s face changed, by now could he not understand that Ning Cheng’s persuasive domain was not at full strength before. This time, without waiting for him to speak, Ning Cheng had already made his move.
The Extreme Dao Artifact Lance transformed into an endless array of spear shadows and swept out. The scene clearly looked like Ning Cheng was trapped by two cultivators one after the other, and after Ning Cheng made his move, the surrounding domain made a clicking and shattering sound. Without waiting for the people around to see whose domain had shattered, the traces of gun patterns that roamed the sky directly ignored space and covered the two people in a blanket.
As the domain shattered inch by inch, the space around them disappeared, and the roiling gun trails rolled in, Jing Wuya’s heart instantly sank to the bottom. He couldn’t even offer up his own divine ability, he knew he had gotten himself into ** trouble.
