Cultivating with Top Enlightenment

Chapter 1430: Borrowing a Blade to Kill (Part 2)

The mountain peak they were on was similarly surrounded by dense green trees.

Because they were at the summit, they could feel the mountain wind.

Sounds could be heard all around, making it a great vantage point.

“Alright! Let’s rest.”

Ning Qi agreed and started looking for a place where he could rest.

After searching for a while, he finally found a suitable resting spot behind a large rock.

There were several large rocks here, and facing the side of the mountain was a cave.

Ning Qi used his Divine Sense to explore and found nothing unusual inside.

After confirming it was safe, he directly entered the cave.

“Phew!”

The cave was empty.

There was no trace of anyone having been here.

So, Ning Qi especially arranged his Three Thousand Waters Array at the mouth of the cave to prevent anyone from disturbing his rest.

After setting things up, Ning Qi found a spot in the cave to sit cross-legged.

He began meditating and breathing there.

The Medicine Spirit flew around him, and after confirming it was truly safe, the Medicine Spirit rested with Ning Qi.

A night passed quickly, and soon it was dawn.

Ning Qi woke from his sleep and stretched.

Then he walked out of the cave and climbed onto a large rock, once again gazing into the distance.

During the day, this place was full of green trees.

Occasionally, the sound of fierce beasts could be heard.

After confirming the situation here, Ning Qi no longer hesitated.

He directly descended the mountain, heading to the other side.

By comparing with the compass from here, he could see.

The direction he walked was without any doubt.

The two walked together, chatting idly.

“Master, do you think we’ll encounter any members of the Immortal Race today?”

The Medicine Spirit curiously asked.

“It’s unlikely, this place is too vast.”

“Even if there are patrol teams of the Immortal Race here, we probably won’t encounter them.”

Ning Qi pointed and said, “It’s a pity, this kind of place will ultimately be destroyed by powerful figures.”

“Master, what level of power would be capable of such destruction?”

“To instantly destroy a realm, anyway my previous master couldn’t have done it!”

The Medicine Spirit was curious.

As he spoke, he suddenly remembered something.

At this moment, Ning Qi was already a formidable expert with Golden Immortal strength.

Though still far away from his master’s strength, his growth was rapid.

He believed that one day, Ning Qi’s strength would surpass his previous master.

“By the way, what was your master’s strength back then?”

Ning Qi, hearing his words, suddenly thought of something, and asked.

“Master, his strength back then was that of a Daluo Golden Immortal.”

“Unfathomable might!”

“Though slightly weaker than Emperor Xi, within the Immortal Race, he was already among the top ten in power.”

When the Medicine Spirit mentioned his master, he enthusiastically introduced him.

Scenes of the past appeared as if before his eyes, making the Medicine Spirit show a look of reminiscence.

“I see, even someone that strong could fall, it seems this is a path we must walk.”

Ning Qi, after hearing him finish, followed with a sigh.

“Master, someday you will also achieve such strength!”

The Medicine Spirit suddenly said, “I even feel you will surpass my former master!”

“Well then, I’ll take your words as auspicious!”

Ning Qi smiled, then directed his gaze forward.

“Master, did you find something?”

The Medicine Spirit noticed his odd expression and quickly asked.

“Get ready.”

Ning Qi nodded and continued, “There are several traces of energy, clearly not just one person!”

“Ah, should we lay low?”

The Medicine Spirit worriedly asked upon hearing this.

“No need, although there are many of them, their strength isn’t great.”

“But still, be cautious to avoid being discovered by them.”

Ning Qi shook his head and then refocused on these individuals.

Although he couldn’t see them yet, he could clearly sense their energy strengths.

Among these individuals, two possessed Golden Immortal strength, and several others had Heavenly Immortal strength.

Each of them was unfathomable.

However, to Ning Qi, although their strength was formidable, considering their movements, these individuals were strong in power but lacking in strategy.

“Master, they are coming quickly, should we hide?”

The Medicine Spirit felt their approach and quickly reminded Ning Qi.

Ning Qi listened and laughed, “Why worry, it’s good they’re coming!”

“Catch them, ask about the situation here, and see if we can blend in.”

“Uh? Isn’t that too risky?”

“We could be easily detected!”

The Medicine Spirit showed concern after hearing his words.

“Just hide, leave the rest to me!”

Ning Qi directly sent him into his Dantian, and after confirming their direction, Ning Qi swiftly moved.

His speed was fast, and before long, he was near the position of those energy traces.

“Phew!”

He even intentionally released part of his energy.

So that these individuals would know he was also nearby.

After confirming the direction they were coming from, Ning Qi patiently waited for them.

After a while, these people finally arrived, chatting and laughing.

“Senior brother, do you think our plan will work?”

A young lady asked the person in front.

“Of course, as long as we’re careful and go to the Demon Race side to bring back a few subordinates.”

Another young man smirked, displaying confidence, “It’s just a few patrolling members of the Demon Race; with so many of us, we can certainly handle them.”

“We’re not attacking or provoking them; even if they discover our actions, they won’t come after us.”

“Alright, but everyone must be careful. We’re nearing the riverbank now.”

“Okay!”

“…”

After hearing his words, the others responded in agreement, continuing their journey.

Their commotion was unknown to Ning Qi and the Medicine Spirit.

They were currently far apart.

“Master, why aren’t they here yet? They have True Immortal Golden Immortal strength and should arrive quickly.”

The Medicine Spirit was becoming impatient, repeatedly asking.

“Don’t worry, they’re already heading this way!”

Ning Qi told him to be quiet, then pointed forward, “Besides, there’s a fierce beast here.”

“Master, this fierce beast is too weak; we could easily kill it.”

“What’s the use?”

The Medicine Spirit also noticed the fierce beast.

“As long as it disrupts their plans, allowing us to blend in.”

Ning Qi smiled, explaining.

“What? To blend in, won’t we be discovered?”

The Medicine Spirit’s interest piqued upon hearing this.

“You’ve forgotten I can Disguise.”

“Once I target someone, I’ll directly bring them into our Inner Realm.”

“If they can be tamed, that’s fine; if not, I’ll throw them into the Li River Water, never to reincarnate.”

Ning Qi replied, laughing.

“Oh, I forgot!”

The Medicine Spirit suddenly realized, laughing, “Master, they’re arriving; how shall we act?”

“Watch me.”

Ning Qi said, already drawing his bow.

“Whoosh!”

With the sound, the arrow shot forward.

In the blink of an eye, it angered the fierce beast.

“Roar!”

With a furious roar, the fierce beast quickly climbed a small hill.

Trying to locate who disturbed its rest.

After searching around, its attention immediately focused on the people still traveling ahead.

Murderous intent filled its eyes.

“Senior brother, bad news, there’s a fierce beast!”

The young girl also noticed the beast and quickly warned.
