Cultivating with Top Enlightenment

Chapter 542: Chapter 264: Grandpa_2

Ning Qi nodded slightly.

"By the way, Senior Brother Ning, should we chase Fu Chen?"

Ning Qi said calmly, "Since he’s so sensible, there’s no need to chase him. The most important thing now is to open the Giant Tomb."

Ning Qi’s gaze suddenly swept toward the three corners in the distance. Besides those present, the commotion here had already attracted other Sect disciples.

However, earlier, when they saw Fu Chen, they didn’t come forward but observed from afar, waiting for the right moment.

Now, when they saw Ning Qi’s gaze directed at them, those people felt as if they were mortals being watched by tigers and wolves.

Moreover, since Fu Chen had been scared away by Ning Qi’s sudden appearance, none of them dared to stay. They immediately drove their Magical Treasures and fled in all directions.

Seeing this, Qin Minghao and the others admired Ning Qi all the more.

A man’s reputation casts a shadow like a tree.

The name of Ning Qi, the Immortal Species, was known across the Northern and Southern Domains, but most people had little understanding of it. Some, like the Feather Transformation Upper Sect that Ning Qi destroyed, didn’t take it seriously at all.

But just now, Fu Chen, who was as famous as the top True Inheritor of the Upper Sect, quickly fled upon seeing Ning Qi.

This suddenly gave those spectators who weren’t familiar with Ning Qi an extremely profound realization!

Ning Qi led the group to the front of the Giant Tomb.

The fifth True Inheritor, Wu Qingxiao, immediately rose clutching his chest to greet him.

"Senior Brother Ning!"

"Qingxiao."

Ning Qi examined him seriously and found that his chest bone was completely broken with no signs of recovery.

For a Cultivator at the Primordial Spirit Realm, as long as they could still absorb Spiritual Qi and use Primordial Spirit Power, their physical body should not have any injuries.

If there were unresolved injuries, it must have been a wound inflicted by someone at a higher realm.

On Wu Qingxiao’s chest, a Blood Fire Palm Seal persisted without dissipating, which showed how formidable Fu Chen was.

Ning Qi immediately stretched out his hand, brushed over Wu Qingxiao’s chest, and the residual Blood Fire Magical Power was instantly absorbed by Ning Qi’s large hand.

Ning Qi carefully sensed the power within, and sure enough, Fu Chen had reached the limit of the Primordial Spirit Realm. Through his Magical Power, Ning Qi could perceive that Fu Chen was just one step away from generating the Power of Rules.

Bringing his thoughts back, Ning Qi handed Wu Qingxiao a bottle of Healing Holy Medicine he had collected and said, "Take this first, recover quickly so you can continue fighting."

Wu Qingxiao’s face grew excited, his pain was extracted as soon as Ning Qi arrived. How fortunate he was to have such a Senior Brother!

"Thank you, Senior Brother Ning!"

Then, Ning Qi looked at the Giant Tomb that resembled a mountain.

Compared to the Bronze Tomb encountered before, the tomb of a Integration Realm Giant had a few more traces of Dao, seemingly connected with the surrounding terrain to form an integrated whole.

The entrance to the tomb was a cave emitting a rich silver-white light, making it impossible to see what was inside.

"Have you already dealt with the Guardian Fierce Beast in front of the tomb?"

Qin Minghao replied, "Senior Brother Ning, the Fierce Beast was a double-horned water snake coiled in the Giant Lake in front, and it was cleaved dead by Fu Chen earlier."

Ning Qi nodded, "Alright, saves us the trouble of dealing with it. Let’s go in and see what’s hidden in the Giant Tomb!"

At the cave entrance, a thick transparent barrier blocked the path.

A five-colored large hand emerged from Ning Qi’s body, directly tearing it apart, making everyone around gasp in amazement.

They had tried before, using their full strength to break the barrier, but to no avail.

"Let’s go!"

...

Fu Chen fled all the way, leaving a trail of blood behind him, within which fire smoke faintly lingered.

After fleeing for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, seeing no one pursued him, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and descended onto the wilderness below.

Fu Chen sat on the grass, picked up a golden-yellow gourd from his waist, and took a big swig of wine.

Only then did he speak to himself, "Teacher, is Ning Qi really that terrifying, could you have sensed him wrongly?"

From the gourd in his hand, a shadow formed completely of Spiritual Qi suddenly emerged, yet it was sharply defined.

This shadow was a slightly hunched old man with a Mediterranean hairstyle and bushy mustaches, looking somewhat comical.

The old man sat cross-legged beside Fu Chen, gestured towards the gourd, causing a stream of Spiritual Qi to emerge from it which he then devoured.

"Chen, as your teacher, I’ve followed you for so many years and witnessed so many perilous events. Have I ever reported wrongly once?"

Fu Chen looked at the shadow and obediently shook his head, "No."

This teacher of his suddenly appeared one day following the burial of his parents when Fu Chen dug out the gourd from the earth.

With this gourd, Fu Chen dreamt strange dreams during sleep, wherein a hazy figure taught him the methods of Cultivation.

Thus, Fu Chen advanced rapidly and embarked on his journey to immortality.

He had asked about the teacher’s origins, to which the teacher had confessed he was Wei Wuya, an Ancestor at the Unity Realm of a great Immortal Sect before the Profound Truth Realm’s downfall.

"That’s right, why then do you now begin to doubt your teacher’s teachings?" Wei Wuya said discontentedly.

Fu Chen chuckled, "Ning Qi is known as the Immortal Species, but I reckon he is only at the pinnacle of an Upper Sect’s first True Inheritor, if not slightly higher, yet you treat him with such reverence."

Wei Wuya let out a wry smile.

"Boy, you cannot perceive the eerie aspects of him, but I tell you, you are not his match. Why bother contesting with him now?"

"Your priority now should be to obtain the complete inheritance from the Blood Fire Immortal Sect, and deal with things later."

Fu Chen frowned. Even when facing top individuals like Niu Man, Ren Zong, Chu Xiaotian from an Upper Sect, Wei Wuya had never spoken like this to him, leaving him both shocked and somewhat indignant.

"Teacher, Ning Qi emerged in just a few years. Could it be that, like me, he has someone like you behind him?" Fu Chen suddenly asked.
