Cultivating with Top Enlightenment

Chapter 1434: Inner Realm Reincarnation_2

“Although we could quickly reach our destination by flying boat, it is not permitted.”

Li Qiwan pointed ahead as she spoke.

“Oh, why is that?”

Ning Qi asked curiously upon hearing this.

“You’re a loose cultivator, so naturally, you wouldn’t know.”

“Our aim is to prevent any ambushes or demons impersonating as one of us.”

“If we don’t restrict flying, they could arrive swiftly, leaving us defenseless.”

“Additionally, we can instantly react to those unaware who attempt to fly.”

Li Qiwan patiently explained.

“I see.”

After her brief explanation, Ning Qi quickly understood.

This was simply a measure to prevent ambushes.

This rule restricts many people’s movements but also better safeguards their border areas.

“Soon, as you join our Thousand Crane Sect, you will have a status.”

“You’ll gradually understand our rules here.”

Li Qiwan smiled as she spoke.

“By the way, why were so many of us summoned here this time?”

Ning Qi suddenly thought of a question and asked.

This question was the very purpose of his visit here.

However, he didn’t come to spy for the demons.

He came for his own sake.

If there truly were an Immortal Trace here, it would be a great opportunity.

An Immortal Trace at this location would undoubtedly hold unexpected supreme treasures.

Since advancing to Golden Immortal, he gradually realized that previous supreme treasures were of little use.

Although their power remained, he now faced experts like himself, possessing Dharma Bodies and wielding Origin Power.

These treasures, lacking sufficient strength, couldn’t even scratch them.

Especially after the last battle, he felt that his Chaos Sword was now largely useless.

“We don’t know either, which is why we have the qualifications to come.”

“Otherwise, we wouldn’t be able to be here.”

Li Qiwan said, “I’ve always thought that coming here is a death sentence.”

“However, before that, if we obtain some supreme treasures or resources.”

“We might have a chance to survive, making this journey worthwhile.”

“Oh, came without knowing.”

Ning Qi exclaimed softly.

“Yes, aren’t you the same?”

Li Qiwan replied in turn.

“Indeed, though I wonder why they’re doing this.”

Ning Qi nodded in agreement.

“Well, that’s unknown to us—it must be known only to the four major families of the Immortal Race and the three major sects.”

Li Qiwan also shook her head, speaking solemnly, “Had it been the past, our sect would have qualified too, but sadly those days are gone.”

“Perhaps an opportunity may arise for you all.”

Ning Qi casually commented.

“Let’s hope your words prove true.”

Li Qiwan smiled and looked afar, “The sky is already darkening. I wonder how fierce the beasts will be tonight.”

“What do you mean, these fierce beasts vary daily?”

Ning Qi asked curiously upon hearing this.

“Yes, they are unpredictable.”

Li Qiwan nodded, then continued, “Here, I feel the fierce beasts are controlled.”

“They deliberately roam here and hunt people.”

“But I have no concrete evidence.”

“I feel the same way.”

Ning Qi agreed deeply, “Some of them even carry man-made supreme treasures.”

“You’ve seen them too?”

Li Qiwan asked upon hearing this.

“Yes, you’ve seen them too?”

Ning Qi nodded.

He didn’t expect they would also encounter them.

After all, fierce beasts carrying supreme treasures should be extremely rare.

“We haven’t encountered them—just the ordinary ones that we cannot deal with.”

“If we did encounter such ones, we’d likely already be dead.”

Li Qiwan shook her head and sighed, “This was told to me by my master.”

“He warned us that if we encounter these, we must flee, or we’ll surely die.”

“Oh, so your master encountered them?”

Ning Qi casually asked.

“No, even he heard it from the seniors.”

Li Qiwan shook her head and then continued, “These fierce beasts seem clearly controlled, hope we don’t run into such fierce beasts.”

“We shouldn’t be that unlucky.”

Ning Qi chuckled as he spoke.

In truth, he really had encountered them.

If he hadn’t tricked them into his Inner Realm back then.

He probably wouldn’t have dealt with those fierce beasts as effortlessly.

In the outer world, he wasn’t sure what other powerful beings the fierce beasts might summon.

However, when the fierce beasts were exterminated, the old man he saw proved Li Qiwan’s previous speculations were true.

“Look, the fierce beasts here have started moving.”

Li Qiwan pointed ahead as she spoke.

At this moment, fierce beasts were already appearing before them.

Some fierce beasts were even entangled in fights with each other.

Clearly, a struggle over territory was unfolding.

Yet, more of them were patrolling within their domain.

Despite this, they had no sight of Ning Qi and the others’ situation.

“There are certainly many. It’s wise of us not to proceed!”

After observing them, Ning Qi commented.

These fierce beasts were quite a distance away, making it impossible to discern their strength for the time being.

However, Ning Qi sensed that if they were provoked, things would surely become troublesome.

If someone were controlling these beasts, provoking them might incite a collective attack.

Then, at that time, there would truly be nowhere to escape.

One could only hide in his Inner Realm to avoid the fierce beasts’ pursuit.

“Senior Sister.”

At this time, Zhao Cheng’s voice was heard nearby.

“Junior Brother, how’s it?”

Li Qiwan eagerly asked upon his approach.

“We’ve stationed people around.”

“No problems to be expected.”

Zhao Cheng pointed around and said, “I’ve arranged for them to take turns on duty.”

“Mm, that’s good. You should rest first.”

“I’ll watch during the first half of the night, and you during the second half.”

Li Qiwan nodded and then said.

“Senior Sister, I can watch alone.”

Zhao Cheng quickly said.

“There’s no need. We need to conserve energy; this is a perilous place.”

“Don’t be courteous with me.”

Li Qiwan shook her head, evidently resolute.

“Alright then, I’ll relieve you at midnight.”

Zhao Cheng didn’t persist further and agreed immediately.

He clearly understood Li Qiwan’s nature.

Once she made a decision, it was unchangeable, as if anchored by ten oxen.

“Good, quickly go.”

Li Qiwan, finally relieved, sent him down the mountain.

“Okay.”

Not delaying further, Zhao Cheng agreed and then began descending the mountain.

“Young Master Ding, you should go as well. I’ll watch over things.”

Li Qiwan then turned to Ning Qi and said.

“I’ll just meditate here; feel free.”

Ning Qi didn’t refuse but showed no intention of going down the mountain either.

Instead, he sat on a rock and began to meditate.

Li Qiwan, seeing this, didn’t continue persuading, instead staying there to monitor the surroundings.

Any slight disturbance would prompt her to swiftly extend her divine sense.

Once safety was confirmed, her mind was at ease.

At that moment, the surrounding people began resting.

Moreover, those they stationed were vigilantly monitoring the situation.

Meanwhile, Ning Qi, internally focusing, arrived at his sea of consciousness.

“Master.”

Shi Xiaokun greeted as he arrived at the sea of consciousness.

“You called me here, what’s the matter?”

Ning Qi walked over and then asked.

This time he entered because Shi Xiaokun summoned him, so he first clarified the situation.

“Master, I’ve had our Inner Realm’s people undergo one cycle.”

“Try now, if all goes well, the Power of Incense has been birthed.”

Shi Xiaokun, upon hearing his inquiry, smiled as he said.

His face was full of excitement.

“Oh, did it succeed?”

Intrigued by this, Ning Qi responded promptly.
