Cultivating with Top Enlightenment

Chapter 760: Chapter 320: Lone Walker (Part 2)

This means that Ning Qi has shouldered the most difficult challenge within the War Domain on his own!

Everyone sternly said, "We will adhere to the Alliance Hierarch’s decree!"

Ning Qi nodded, "Go, and from now on, the rule fragments you gain from capturing nodes, you will digest them on your own. The Spiritual Warfare has just begun, do not assume it will end soon!"

Everyone immediately understood that the Alliance Hierarch was worried their strength wouldn’t keep up in future Spiritual Warfare, so he intended to train them.

Now that Harmonization has not emerged, under Ning Qi’s leadership, indeed we possess many advantages, almost invincible, but what about afterward?

Everyone felt a sense of urgency, preparing to give their all in the upcoming war to hone themselves.

The Sword Ancestor immediately stepped to the forefront of the army, the Spirit Sword lying across his right hand, then raised it high above his head.

"Profound Truth Realm’s army, follow me off!"

"Yes!"

Everyone took one last look at Alliance Hierarch Ning Qi, their eyes flashing, swearing to deeply imprint his figure in their minds before the army set off towards the next node.

Ning Qi gazed at the departing people, his eyes slightly narrowed.

This army, completely established by him in the Mountain and Sea Realm, will only grow and become stronger through more battles.

Compared to the entire Mountain and Sea Realm’s various domains, Ning Qi dared to say that the treatment he provided is absolutely the best.

The best cultivation techniques, adequate resources, various arrays, etc., everything is complete...

Now, it is time for them to stand on their own, to begin to show their sharpness.

Only by facing the enemy independently will they realize how precious everything they gained from Ning Qi is!

And only in this way, will they cherish more, and be more loyal.

Ning Qi’s figure gradually faded.

The situation of the War Domain he already understood quite a bit, and it was time to set off alone to explore more places and acquire more power for the True Martial Realm.

After brief consideration, he needed to do two things now.

First, resolve the other Domain Masters within the current domain.

Based on previously acquired intelligence, this Southeast War Realm is divided into Upper, Middle, and Lower Domains, and they are in the Lower Domain.

Within the Lower Domain, the Mountain and Sea Realm and Vast Realm should both have entered with armies from three Spirit Domains.

Now, he has taken down the Domain Master of the Spirit Bird Domain in the Vast Realm, leaving two Domain Masters unresolved.

Of course, there are some adversaries on the Mountain and Sea side as well.

Fuyao Realm’s Qi Keqing and others are considered to be on the same side as the Profound Truth Realm, but Old Man Sikong’s Cyan Profound Immortal Sect seems to be stirring up trouble still; if Ning Qi encounters them, he will eliminate them in passing.

Moreover, Ning Qi remembered that the Langya Domain’s army is also in this domain; although they are cultivators from the Mountain and Sea Realm, who can guarantee what other thoughts they might have.

Second, Ning Qi plans to find out whether there is a mysterious location in the War Domain unexplorable by the will of the two realms. He wants to go there to cut out some space to merge into the True Martial Realm, accelerating the growth of the True Martial Realm.

This goal is Ning Qi’s primary reason for coming to the War Domain.

...

Qi Keqing held the Soul-Searching Plate given by Ning Qi, showing a look of delight.

Everyone agreed with Qi Keqing’s decision; luckily, she did not choose the fifty micro rule fragments offered by Ning Qi, but instead obtained this compass from him.

With this node detector, they saved a vast amount of time that would have been wasted on finding nodes, providing great convenience.

They were even more grateful to have made friends with the Profound Truth Realm’s army.

That Domain Master Ning mentioned that if they were in trouble, they could send a message, and Ning Qi would assist them once, which undoubtedly secured their safety once.

Behind Qi Keqing, Elder Li stepped forward, his old face flushed, saying:

"Senior Sister Qi, I apologize to you, good thing you didn’t listen to my words, otherwise our Fuyao Realm’s army would be in danger now!"

Qi Keqing was in a good mood at the moment, saying, "Elder Li, the past is past; as long as you don’t oppose Domain Master Ning and the Profound Truth Realm’s army in the future, it’s fine."

Elder Li nodded vigorously like a woodpecker, causing everyone to laugh.

Besides the redness, his face also showed a faint fear.

How could someone like him be considered anything when Domain Master Ning can instantly kill even the Domain Master of the Vast Realm?

Elder Li suddenly said, "I wonder how Senior Sister Qi plans to deal with Sikong Lan? The betrayal by practitioners of the Cyan Profound Immortal Sect during battle is almost equivalent to turning against us!"

Everyone in the Fuyao Realm’s army was gritting their teeth in hatred at the mention of Sikong Lan, eager to grind his bones to dust for his shameless actions.

Qi Keqing’s delight faded, her eyes filled with cold light.

"Next time we meet him, I’ll try every means to kill him!"

...

Sikong Lan, leading two-tenths of Fuyao Realm’s army, had separated from Qi Keqing’s forces, wearing a proud expression.

His cunning approach was very smooth, and he secretly felt quite pleased with himself.

"Ha ha, Senior Brother Lan, your action must have left Qi and Ning Qi in quite a predicament!"

His junior brother Ma Feng flattered him.

Nearby, leaders from other sects also laughed, saying:

"Senior Brother Lan’s maneuver not only weakened the Jade Light Immortal Sect and the old sects under it, providing space for new sects to survive, but also disadvantaged the neighboring Profound Truth Realm’s army. This truly was a strategy that killed two birds with one stone!"

Sikong Lan stroked his beard slightly, listening to everyone’s compliments, feeling as if he was soaring.

By now, they had already fled far, unaware that practitioners of the Vermilion Bird Immortal Sect did not harm the two armies but were instead annihilated.

Someone reminded, "Senior Brother Lan, I have a suggestion; I wonder if I should speak?"

Sikong Lan looked at him. The man, dressed like a scholar, with bright eyes and a folding fan in hand, was known for his strategy in the team, so he said, "Speak!"

The man said, "The Vermilion Bird Immortal Sect split their forces to fight at two locations, while the Profound Truth Realm’s army was covertly watching. Eventually, it would be a battle between one side and three sides. Even if they can harm Qi Keqing and Ning Qi’s army, they won’t be the final victors."

His analysis was reasonable and well-founded, and everyone agreed after hearing it.

"I wonder what Mr. Sima’s excellent idea is?" Sikong Lan asked.

Sima Fei said, "They will definitely come to settle scores with us afterward; it is better to plan ahead."

Sikong Lan nodded, "I understand that too, Mr., can you offer any pearls of wisdom?"

Sima Fei smiled slightly, appearing as if he had mastered everything.

"You know I have studied various subjects. Previously when our army passed through a place, I vaguely sensed something odd about that territory, but I didn’t think much at the time. Thinking back now, it must be a peculiar place, possibly containing a node."

Everyone was taken aback by his words.

Sikong Lan asked, "Mister, is this true?"

Sima Fei closed the folding fan in his hand and smiled, "We’ll just have to find out. Can’t that Ning Qi detect the presence of nodes? Once we locate this node, we can lay down a world-shocking trap to eliminate Ning Qi and the Profound Truth Realm’s army there!"

When he mentioned Ning Qi, his eyes overflowed with hatred.

Sikong Lan knew that Ancestor Sikong had once sent four Venerables to the Southern True Domain to kill Ning Qi.

One of them was Sima Fei’s bosom friend, so naturally, Sima Fei also hated Ning Qi.

Sikong Lan, finding that they had the same thoughts, laughed immediately, saying, "Mr. Sima’s words are very much to my liking; indeed, we should prepare ahead."

Immediately, they followed Sima Fei to search for the peculiar place.

After flying for about half a day, Sima Fei led them to a place where the sky was dim.

Within the War Domain, there is no sun, moon, or stars; only the light passing through from the two realms for illumination.

This location had dim light, as if the light of the two realms twisted and dimmed here, indeed an extremely eerie place.

Everyone looked at the thick gray fog rising ahead, releasing their spiritual sense to probe inside for a while.

But soon, they retracted their spiritual senses, glanced at each other, and looked solemn.

"Mr. Sima, what’s going on here? Though we are Extreme Venerables, why can’t our spiritual senses detect anything inside?"

Sima Fei, who had unknowingly taken out his folding fan again, continued to fan himself slowly.

The breeze lifted his hair, adding a bit of a scholarly grace to his appearance.

Suddenly, mysterious symbols appeared in Sima Fei’s eyes, as if able to see through all illusions and realities.

Simultaneously, he moved with the Seven Star Steps, using the Heavenly Gang, his body turning into an illusion, forming numerous afterimages.

Everyone observed him inspecting the place, waiting quietly for his conclusion.

Soon, Sima Fei stopped and returned to the group.

Everyone saw his face drenched in sweat, as white as chalk, startling them.

"Mr. Sima, are you alright?"

Sima Fei suddenly laughed wildly, "What a marvelous place, untouched by the will of the two realms! This place is extremely unique, and we can set up a killing trap here, luring Ning Qi in!"
