Cultivating with Top Enlightenment

Chapter 533: Chapter 262 Gathering_2

Jiang Qingxue, as the pride of the Jiang Family of this generation, proactively asked, "Is there any mid-grade spiritual treasure transaction here?"

Jiang Xi shook his head and smiled, "Qingxue, such treasures as mid-grade spiritual treasures are rarely encountered even in the marketplace."

Upon hearing this, Ning Qi shook his head, feeling there was no need to browse the marketplace further.

Several True Inheritors in the group made trades in the marketplace.

Suddenly, Jiang Xi pointed at a figure’s back and whispered, "Did you see that Ox Demon?"

Everyone focused their eyes in that direction.

They saw a black-skinned Ox Demon, towering at about one zhang, wearing only a beast skin skirt over his whole body, exuding an extraordinary aura.

His muscles were like forged black iron, and he emitted a wild aura, exchanging items at a pill stall.

Jiang Qingxue’s eyes narrowed, "Is he the Niu Man of the Niu Mo Upper Sect in the Southern True Domain?"

Jiang Xi nodded, "Yes, this demon’s body is incredibly robust. It’s rumored that he carries the blood of an Immortal Beast, and even escaped from the clutches of a Great Power."

Just then, Niu Man completed his pill exchange and turned to look at them.

His ox eyes as big as bronze bells scanned over everyone from the Infinite Sword Sect, finally fixing on Ning Qi, his eyes brightening.

Niu Man approached voluntarily, ignoring others, and asked Ning Qi:

"Are you the Immortal Species Ning Qi? Do you have time for a sparring match with me, old Niu?"

A pure white breath escaped from his nostrils, and just standing before everyone, they could hear his strong heart beating and feel a wave of scorching heat coming towards them.

Wang Ye stepped out, standing in front of Ning Qi, eyes burning with eagerness to battle against someone like Niu Man, a body cultivator.

"Ah, a cultivator of body refinement, not bad, but unfortunately you’re not a match for old Niu," Niu Man said in a booming, candid voice, giving off a sense of sincerity.

Ning Qi replied calmly, "Why the rush, Brother Niu Man? How about we fight again in the Profound Truth Secret Realm?"

Upon hearing this, Niu Man glanced over the marketplace.

Though a demon beast, he wasn’t reckless, knowing that if he and Ning Qi took action now, there might be many in hiding watching for amusement.

"Alright, I love mingling with peers. How about having a few drinks first? It’s my treat," Niu Man suggested.

"Since Brother Niu is so hospitable, I’d gladly accompany you," Ning Qi replied.

Ning Qi turned to the people of the Infinite Sword Sect and said, "Continue browsing, I’ll have a chat with this Brother Niu."

Seeing this, everyone nodded, showing faint excitement.

Having just disembarked from the Treasure Ship, to have the Sect’s top True Inheritor invited by a disciple from the Upper Sect of the Southern True Domain was indeed an honor for them.

Niu Man then looked at Wang Ye and said, "You come along too, I quite like body-refining cultivators."

Wang Ye naturally agreed.

Thus, Ning Qi and Wang Ye followed Niu Man to the largest restaurant and inn in Ningyu City, the Wonderful Fragrance Pavilion.

Wonderful Fragrance Pavilion was located in the northern part of Ningyu City, close to the array formation entrance of the Profound Truth Secret Realm, with the whole building resembling a square tower.

At the top floor of Wonderful Fragrance Pavilion, by a window side.

Niu Man ordered a whole table full of meat, not a single bit of vegetable.

Seeing Ning Qi and Wang Ye staring at him in surprise, Niu Man laughed, "Eating meat gives strength. Although I am of the Ox Race, Brother Wang Ye should understand me."

Wang Ye said, "That is probably a common thought among us body-refining cultivators."

After a few drinks, Niu Man found it unforgiving, so he directly grabbed a wine jar and drank a few gulps fiercely.

Suddenly, Niu Man looked down in another direction, where a figure caught his attention.

Ning Qi and Wang Ye also looked over.

They saw a figure in green robes meticulously examining near the array formation not far from the opening of the Profound Truth Secret Realm in the northern city.

If not for someone guarding the array, the person might have rushed to the array entrance.

"Brother Niu, do you know this person? Could you introduce him?" Ning Qi asked.

Niu Man replied, "This person is a cultivator from a small sect in the Southern True Domain, named Wu Dao, his talent in the way of arrays unmatched in the Southern True Domain."

"Cultivators specializing in the Dao of arrays are rare; if Brother Niu values this person so highly, does he have any remarkable exploits?"

Niu Man raised his head, eyes lighting up.

"Wu Dao once trapped three Void Path Realm cultivators for the time it takes a stick of incense to burn!"

Wang Ye exclaimed, "This person is indeed extraordinary."

"Yes, for us body cultivators, it’s most dreadful to encounter such fellows, so if you meet Wu Dao in the Profound Truth Secret Realm, it’s best not to provoke him; otherwise, being trapped by his array will be a waste of entering!"

"Brother Niu, could you tell us about other people from the Southern True Domain?"

Niu Man tore and chewed a fierce beast’s leg, devouring it quickly.

He burped and said:

"There are over twenty Upper Sects in our Southern True Domain, among those coming to the Profound Truth Secret Realm this time, besides Wu Dao, two others are worth noting."

"The first is naturally Ren Zong, the top True Inheritor of the Celestial Star Upper Sect, who possesses a Star Spirit Body, able to absorb the power of thousands of stars into his body, whether in cultivation or combat, unmatched in speed. Even I, old Niu, can’t claim to surely win against him."

Ning Qi picked up a piece of food.

Wang Ye, single-handedly gnawing a fierce beast’s hoof, asked, "I have heard Ren Zong’s fame even in the Beixuan Domain, who else besides him, Brother Niu talking about?"

Niu Man smiled and said:

"This person is Fu Chen, an anomaly, with no sect or faction, merely a loose cultivator, yet his cultivation is exceedingly pure."

"He rose to prominence, challenging the top True Inheritors of all sects in the Southern True Domain except those with Integration Stage giants guarding them, defeating all those True Inheritors!"

"A truly bold spirit!" Wang Ye felt a bit heated.

Ning Qi also found this individual remarkable.

Niu Man continued, "It’s rumored that Fu Chen obtained the entire inheritance of an Integration Realm giant, coupled with his deeds, I’ve also listed him as someone to watch."
