Chapter 1164 - 511: I Don’t Need to Pay a Toll (Part 2)

"Nonsense, go check if anyone’s outside."

"I’m taking this Bronze Tripod!"

Ning Qi laughed and cursed before directly starting to manipulate his Heart Thought.

"Alright!"

The Medicine Spirit wiped away her tears and rushed out.

The Bronze Tripod in front of him, under his control, shrank to the size of a palm.

Finally, it shrank even further to the size of a thumb.

With his Heart Thought, it directly entered his palm and completely disappeared.

Ning Qi glanced at the blood all over the ground and then opened his right hand.

A phantom of the Bronze Tripod began to flow within his palm.

"Whoosh!"

The next moment, the blood here began to rapidly merge into Ning Qi’s palm at a speed visible to the naked eye.

No more movement was left.

The Blood Pool beneath his feet was completely drained.

What remained was stone just like the stone walls.

Ning Qi took a deep breath, looked around, and finally walked to the entrance of the secret chamber.

He observed and found that other secret chambers had already been thoroughly searched by the Medicine Spirit.

"Master, people have already come outside, but no one has noticed us here!"

At this time, the Medicine Spirit suddenly returned and respectfully said to Ning Qi, "Shall we go out?"

"Let’s go out. It’s perfect they’ve come; we can blend in and leave!"

Ning Qi smiled, then headed directly towards the upper passage of the corridor.

The Medicine Spirit saw this and immediately followed without hesitation.

Ning Qi soon returned to the surface and reached the courtyard.

At this time, there was no one in this mansion.

He glanced around and, after confirming no one was watching him, leaped into the air.

On this fragment of land, there were some people.

However, they were searching other places and didn’t care about this spot.

Many people had already seen him fly up, but no one paid him any mind.

This courtyard had clearly been scavenged by others.

Having found nothing substantial, they did not bother with Ning Qi.

Even upon seeing him, they made no comment.

"Master, there are quite a few people!"

The Medicine Spirit gazed into the distance. On nearby land fragments, there were also some people.

Some were in pairs or threes, while others moved in groups.

"It’s fine; having this Bronze Tripod is sufficient."

"We can leave now."

Ning Qi chuckled, clearly unconcerned.

"Master, look behind, more are coming."

"They are all following our route!"

The Medicine Spirit suddenly noticed something and quickly warned.

Ning Qi glanced back, indifferent.

He knew full well if these people discovered the shortcut he had opened, they would certainly use it.

In a way, he had helped them avoid taking many detours.

He merely glanced once, then continued hurrying on with the Medicine Spirit in tow.

"Master, there are so many people, we must be careful now."

The Medicine Spirit looked at the crowd ahead, worry etched on her face.

After all, the number of these people was overwhelming.

A lone warrior cannot withstand a multitude.

If trouble arises, and even if they can’t defeat Ning Qi, they could still put them in a precarious situation.

"Don’t worry. We’ll mind our business and avoid clashing."

Ning Qi chuckled, continuing his flight.

Soon he arrived at a sizable land fragment.

"Stop!"

Before he could ascend, two Guards blocked his path.

Ning Qi looked at the Guards in front of him, then smiled.

"What? Is this your territory?"

He asked mockingly.

"Hmph, kid!"

"Don’t be arrogant. This is our Qing Mountain Realm."

"To get in, you need to pay the toll!"

"And any treasures you’ve obtained, you must hand over half to us!"

After the Guards approached, they scrutinized Ning Qi.

Although they sensed his strength, they still dismissed him.

Clearly, there were powerful figures on this land.

"Oh? Just you incompetents want to charge me a toll?"

Ning Qi was amused by them and said, "Get lost while I’m not yet angry."

"Damn, do you know whose territory the Qing Mountain Realm is?"

"Kid, I think you don’t want to make it out alive!"

"..."

After his words, they immediately became displeased.

They all started to shout at him.

However, it was mere bluster.

None of them dared to approach and engage Ning Qi.

They clearly knew they were no match for Ning Qi.

"Pfft!"

Nevertheless, Ning Qi had no intention of tolerating them.

Seeing them pestering endlessly, he struck one in the chest with a punch.

The man’s chest was pierced by his punch, instantly creating two holes.

He staggered on the ground before collapsing to the side, motionless.

"Damn, you’re looking for death!"

"Our senior brother just arrived, and you’re dead!"

"Just wait and see, don’t leave!"

Seeing their comrade killed, none came forward to avenge.

They just threatened Ning Qi, telling him not to leave.

"Fine, I’ll wait here. I want to see how your people measure up!"

Ning Qi crossed his arms, showing a contemptuous look.

Seeing his arrogant demeanor, they ground their teeth in anger.

But no one dared to challenge Ning Qi anymore.

They knew the gap in strength between them and Ning Qi was significant.

They could only wait for others to arrive.

After their shouting, before a cup of tea could be finished, several people flew over.

Each wore an expression of rage.

On arrival, they first saw the corpse lying on the ground.

"Kid, you’re courting death! You dare attack people from the Qing Mountain Realm."

A hulking man with broad shoulders glared at Ning Qi: "Destroy your hands yourself, and I may leave you a whole body!"

"Oh? Just a mere True Immortal First Grade, daring to talk big?"

Ning Qi sneered, looking at the hulking man: "If that’s all the power you have, then scram."

"Don’t waste my time!"

With that, he walked straight towards the depths of the land.

"Damn, that’s asking for death!"

The hulking man was infuriated at being ignored.

He roared and charged Ning Qi.

Ning Qi saw him approaching and smiled.

"Three Thousand Waters."

With a shout, a water ripple fluctuation of the Array appeared between them.

Instantly, the pressure spread, directly confining the hulking man before him.

"Crack!"

"Bang!"

In the next moment, the hulking man self-destructed before him.

His lack of strength led him to self-destruct under the immense pressure in an instant.

Everyone present was wide-eyed with shock.

They never expected the senior brother they called couldn’t even force Ning Qi to make a move.

He merely said a word, and the hulking man was killed.

The ground was smeared with his blood and shattered body.

The air filled with a nauseating stench.

Making Ning Qi appear like a war god.

"Anyone else unsatisfied?"

He looked at the crowd and asked with a smile.

This time, no one dared to challenge him again.

Able to smite a True Immortal with a thought.

What might his true strength be?

"I’ll fight you to the death!"

"Avenge the senior brother."

"..."

The few who had arrived with the hulking man roared and charged.

Regardless of life and death now.

"Since you’re seeking death, don’t blame me!"

Ning Qi shook his head, watching them charge towards him.

He casually drew a Profound Sword from his Storage Bag.

To deal with them, he never considered using his Chaos Sword.

"Pfft!"

"Ah!"

"..."

In just a few breaths, they all became souls under Ning Qi’s sword.

None could last more than a strike under him.

Soon, several corpses lay on the ground.

The few Guards were scared out of their wits.

Each stood like a mute, not daring to move for fear Ning Qi would notice and kill them.

"How bold!"

At this point, a cold snort echoed from the depths of the land.
