Cultivating with Top Enlightenment

Chapter 1138 - 498: First Encounter (Part 2)

Li Donglin glanced at the people around him, then shifted his gaze forward again and said, "Don’t worry, they are not our match."

"Even if they’re all together, it doesn’t matter; we are very close to the Palace Master, just communicate immediately upon discovery."

"He will come right away; we just need to stall for time!"

"When the Palace Master arrives, we’ll join forces, plus you all setting up the array, they won’t be able to escape even with wings!"

"But what if they’ve been demonized?"

"That would erode us!"

After he spoke, one of the guards began to worry.

The worry in his eyes was even more apparent.

The other few people were clearly apprehensive about this too.

If it really is people from UCI, then they will be very dangerous.

They weren’t afraid of them being strong in combat, but being afraid that they’ve already been eroded.

"Moreover, might there be twisted monsters where they are?"

Another person also looked over and couldn’t help but ask.

"Yes, sir, we have to guard against that!"

"We don’t seem to be prepared for these here."

"..."

A few people looked worriedly at Li Donglin.

"What are you afraid of, we’ll see the situation at the time."

"If they’ve really been eroded, they won’t survive long anyway."

"When we notify them, the whole Immortal Selection Pavilion would be stirred up; wouldn’t be able to deal with them?"

Li Donglin glared at a few people: "We haven’t even started acting yet, and you’re already afraid; what’s the use of having you."

"Once we encounter them, rush forward, whoever dares not, bears the consequences!"

After he said this, the group stopped uttering nonsensical words, cautiously controlling the flying boat to continue their journey.

Gradually, the distance between them and Dao Bujin grew further.

After flying for half a day, they finally saw the meteorite area where Ning Qi was hiding.

"Hold on!"

Li Donglin waved his hand to stop the flying boat.

Once they all stopped, a few of them turned to look over.

In front of them was the Meteorite Turbulence Zone.

All around were meteorites of various sizes, with occasional flows of Gang Feng inside.

"Let’s go around!"

One guard glanced, feeling his hair stand on end.

He already began to feel like retreating.

"Go around?"

Li Donglin murmured and then waved his hand saying, "Take your flying boat over to check the situation!"

"Huh?"

"Isn’t that unnecessary?"

"Yeah, how could anyone be inside there?"

"..."

On hearing this, they were instantly scared, each wearing mournful expressions.

Clearly not wanting to take the risk.

They have reached their limit getting here, feeling the dangers inside, going in is like walking into a trap isn’t it?

Though they said nothing, inwardly they began to complain.

"I told you to go, so go."

"Anyone who refuses won’t leave!"

Li Donglin glared at them, scolding: "Disobey the order, I’ll kill you now!"

"This..."

"Let’s go!"

"..."

Under his threat, they eventually had to agree, joining in departure.

Hence, one of the flying boats headed towards the meteorite area ahead.

They didn’t notice that behind one of the meteorites, a person was hiding inside.

That person was none other than Ning Qi, who had hidden himself waiting for them to reminisce.

At that moment, he was hiding beside a meteorite.

Just waiting for them to take the bait.

As he watched the flying boat come closer, Ning Qi’s eyes gleamed fiercely.

The awaited moment had finally arrived.

The long setup was for this moment.

He did not rush to act, observing as the flying boat approached.

The few people were still hesitating.

Hovering around the meteorite area’s periphery for a while.

"Go inside and check it out!"

They were soon ordered by Li Donglin to proceed inside.

"Yes."

Though unwilling, they still agreed.

Once they controlled the flying boat to enter, Ning Qi’s eyes widened, holding his breath.

"Whew!"

"Boom!"

The flying boat’s protective light curtain often got hit by meteorites, causing the boat to sway.

However, those on the flying boat did not shy away; after all, someone was watching behind them.

When they traveled farther away, Ning Qi still did not act.

Instead, he waited until the outside was completely invisible, then followed them.

He stowed away his flying boat, focusing on the flying boat ahead.

There were two people on this flying boat; dealing with them wasn’t difficult.

Once he saw the opportunity, he leaped forward.

"Swish!"

In an instant, using the Chaos Sword, he penetrated their protective light curtain.

"Someone!"

One of them noticed something was wrong.

Turning to draw his knife to act.

"Puff!"

However, he was still a step slower; Ning Qi had already acted.

With just one move, he effortlessly resolved it.

When the other person tried to act, Ning Qi’s hand had already firmly grasped his neck.

The icy cold feeling prevented that person from speaking.

"Don’t move, or I’ll kill you."

Threatened by Ning Qi, infinite evil qi was already surging in his palm.

While the person wasn’t paying attention, it had infiltrated his body.

"You..."

Feeling the invasion of infinite evil qi, the person panicked.

However, being controlled by Ning Qi, he dared not say much.

Only using a terrified gaze to look at Ning Qi.

At this moment, he finally knew the three people had been eroded.

Unfortunately, it was too late to realize now.

"Bring them inside."

Ning Qi looked at him coldly and said, "I’ll give you a chance to live."

"A chance to live?"

On hearing Ning Qi’s words, he felt amused.

What chance to live when he had already been eroded by him.

"Speak!"

Ning Qi exerted pressure.

"Master, come inside, it’s very safe here, no traps."

"Also, we see traces of someone!"

The guard cunningly reacted, immediately shouting outside.

"Alright! Move out!"

Soon came Li Donglin’s response.

The remaining two flying boats followed together, flying towards their approach route.

Soon, they all entered the Meteorite Turbulence Zone.

Ning Qi sensed them approaching and glanced at the guard.

He was already filled with despair.

"You can die now."

Ning Qi sneered, then killed him with a sword.

Then, with a flicker, he left their flying boat.

Found another meteorite to hide again.

Soon, Li Donglin’s flying boat flew in.

When they saw their own flying boat stopped nearby, already turned into two corpses, their eyes widened.

"Not good, it’s an ambush!"

Li Donglin reacted immediately: "Retreat!"

"Quick!"

The few instantly panicked, desperately trying to turn and leave.

"Can you escape?"

Ning Qi was already behind them, eyes full of killing intent.

"Puff!"

"Slash!"

The Chaos Sword struck, instantly breaking through one flying boat’s protective light curtain.

After killing one person, it didn’t intend to stop.

Targeting another person, he immediately took action.

"Boom!"

However, the crossbows on another flying boat had already been fired.

These weren’t ordinary crossbows, but those enhanced with arrays and restrictions, specially designed to deal with twisted monsters here.

Seeing death looming over Ning Qi, he withdrew swiftly.

Avoiding the crossbow’s attack.

"Boom!"

The crossbow bolt hit a meteorite behind him.

The sound of a violent explosion erupted.

Shook the surrounding turbulent currents, meteorite fragments surged, causing other meteorites around to fly away.

When they hit the flying boats, these boats were protected by light curtains and weren’t destroyed, just shook violently.

Looking at the crossbows they just attacked with, Ning Qi couldn’t help but sigh.

The destructive power of these crossbows wasn’t inferior to that of a True Immortal.

It seems they are also prepared.

If it had hit their protective light curtain, it could have caused considerable damage.
