Cultivating with Top Enlightenment

Chapter 769: Chapter 324: Two Domain Masters (Part 2)

Sikong Lan must seize this opportunity to survive.

Sikong Lan suddenly sighed and said, "Since you, senior, have followed us for so long, you must also know what we intend to do with this node, right?"

Kuang Shanqing nodded slightly and said, "I seem to have heard that you want to deal with a cultivator from your Mountain and Sea Realm?"

Sikong Lan said, "Yes, we went to great lengths to find this node to deal with Ning Qi."

Kuang Shanqing asked curiously, "Who is Ning Qi? Are the cultivators from your Mountain and Sea Realm still fighting amongst yourselves in the war realm?"

Sikong Lan’s face turned red, and he continued, "Senior doesn’t know, but Ning Qi, like you, is a Domain Master. However, he is far from being as honorable and esteemed as you. Ning Qi is cunning and treacherous, and upon arriving in the war realm, he intended to enslave us. We couldn’t bear it and wanted to teach him a lesson!"

Everyone was stunned upon hearing this.

Sikong Lan’s words were a complete reversal of black and white, speaking without hesitation.

However, they also disliked Ning Qi, and given the current extremely perilous situation, if Sikong Lan could turn the situation around with words and make Ning Qi take the fall for them, that would be ideal.

Sure enough, Kuang Shanqing seemed attracted by Sikong Lan’s words.

He then said, "You say Ning Qi is also a Domain Master?"

Sikong Lan immediately nodded and said, "Yes, if senior does not believe me, you can ask my army."

Kuang Shanqing glanced at everyone and, seeing their expressions, knew that Sikong Lan was probably not lying.

At this moment, Kuang Shanqing was unwilling to kill Sikong Lan.

He pondered for a moment before saying, "How powerful is Ning Qi?"

Sikong Lan thought briefly, then responded, "He should be on par with you, senior."

In his mind, Ning Qi was only slightly stronger than him. But now, seeing Kuang Shanqing’s interest in Ning Qi, Sikong Lan exaggerated Ning Qi’s power for survival.

"Is this true?"

"Of course!"

"Hmph," Kuang Shanqing sneered again, "If Ning Qi is truly on par with me, your killing array will definitely be useless against him!"

"Well..." Sikong Lan was speechless, but he quickly responded, "We haven’t fought Ning Qi yet, and it was only after senior’s mention that we realized our methods won’t work on him. But since senior is here, if Ning Qi arrives, he will surely be slain by you!"

Kuang Shanqing coldly laughed, "You have quite the plan, wanting me to help you deal with Ning Qi."

Sikong Lan said, "Senior, as the Domain Master of the Vast Realm, don’t you want to kill the Domain Master of our Mountain and Sea Realm?"

"Heh," Kuang Shanqing glanced at everyone again and said, "If I spare you for now, will you lure Ning Qi here?"

Sikong Lan felt extremely excited, for the other party had been persuaded by his words.

He immediately said, "As long as senior spares me, I will definitely lure Ning Qi here. If I fail, senior can take my life at any time!"

Kuang Shanqing suddenly released his grip on the back of Sikong Lan’s head and slapped him on the shoulder, saying, "Then I’ll spare you for now!"

He suddenly lifted Sikong Lan and instantly moved beside Sima Fei, also restraining Sima Fei.

"You two come with me and tell me more about Ning Qi’s situation."

Though restrained, the two felt less worried.

After all, the other party wouldn’t immediately take their lives.

Sikong Lan was ready to flatter the other side again; if Ning Qi was indeed lured here, during the battle, maybe they would have a chance to escape.

Thus, Sikong Lan and Sima Fei exchanged a knowing glance and exaggerated Ning Qi’s prowess, detailing Ning Qi’s series of remarkable actions to Kuang Shanqing.

"What, you say Ning Qi possesses a compass that can locate node positions?"

"Yes!"

Sikong Lan bowed his head respectfully, "We once followed Ning Qi for a while and saw him personally use the compass to find a node."

Sima Fei also added, "He’s extremely skilled in concealing himself, and due to these two abilities, he was able to eradicate many of your Vast Realm Vermilion Bird Immortal Sect members..."

The more Kuang Shanqing listened, the more amazed and resentful he felt towards Ning Qi.

He resented the fact that Ning Qi had eradicated so many cultivators from the Vast Realm, and he was amazed that Ning Qi’s strength was no less than his own, plus possessing such a valuable compass.

As a Domain Master, Kuang Shanqing naturally knew what such a compass meant within the war realm!

In an instant, Ning Qi’s worth far exceeded that of the Cyan Profound Immortal Sect’s army here.

For such a formidable enemy, Kuang Shanqing decided he must resolve it here!

Kuang Shanqing released a green aura, transforming it into a divine whip that bound the two tightly like rice dumplings, rendering them immobile.

Subsequently, he stepped forward, his figure appearing in the distance, with the two following behind him.

Kuang Shanqing took out a Communication Jade Scroll, then formed a spell with his hand, pointing it at the Jade Scroll, which immediately flashed with a green light.

Sikong Lan and his companion were unsure what he was doing, but surmised that he was likely summoning someone.

Before long, a sound akin to the roaring of a hundred beasts came from afar.

A man, towering and as sturdy as a tower, appeared at the edge of the sky, initially just a black dot. As he approached, various beast shadows seemed to propel him swiftly towards them.

Judging by his imposing presence, he must be a Domain Master like Kuang Shanqing!

Before long, the man appeared beside them.

With sharp eyes like those of beasts, wild and untamed, he scanned everyone with a glance.

"Kuang!"

The proud Kuang Shanqing surprisingly cupped his fists towards the man, saying, "Qianying!"

This man, named Qianying, was the Domain Master of the Hundred Beasts Realm, who always acted alone in the war realm, not staying with the Hundred Beasts Realm army.

Moreover, he was unaware that the Hundred Beasts Realm army was on the brink of destruction by Ning Qi and the Langya Domain army.

With his abilities as a Domain Master, he could have returned if the Hundred Beasts Realm army signaled, as long as he was within this war realm.

However, Ning Qi always worked meticulously, sealing the communication abilities of the Hundred Beasts Realm army upon arrival.

Thus, even if the Hundred Beasts Realm army wished to summon Qianying, they were helpless.

Now, Kuang Shanqing summoned Qianying, the two Domain Masters gathered together to kill Ning Qi, truly a fateful coincidence.

Seeing the arrival of another equally powerful Domain Master, Sikong Lan and Sima Fei trembled all over.

The Cyan Profound Immortal Sect army below also felt an intense shiver.

In their hearts, there were only two words: It’s over!

If only Kuang Shanqing were alone, Sikong Lan and others thought they might still have a chance to escape while Ning Qi battled the opponent.

But now, their hearts were completely enveloped in fear—two Domain Masters, Ning Qi would likely be suppressed and slain immediately upon arrival!

As for themselves, they could forget about escaping!

In that moment, both Sikong Lan and Sima Fei felt a hint of regret.

Not for setting up the killing array against Ning Qi, but for not knowing from the start that there were two Domain Masters, in which case they wouldn’t have bothered setting up any array.

After all, Ning Qi would have met them sooner or later, and he would surely perish.

Now, they themselves were also in jeopardy, a truly disadvantageous situation!

The two exchanged a glance but dared not speak and could only adapt, hoping to find a path of escape amid danger!

Within the Cyan Profound Immortal Sect army, several people were secretly sending messages.

They were, of course, reincarnated individuals from the True Martial Realm. Previously, when Sikong Lan the clown targeted Realm Lord Ning Qi, they merely found it amusing.

But now, with the two Domain Masters of the Vast Realm joining forces to target the Realm Lord, they had to send out the message.

Hoping that if the Realm Lord was not fully confident, he would not come here at all!

As for themselves, if they died, so be it; they could be reborn in the True Martial Realm anyway.

Kuang Shanqing and Qianying had already become the masters of this place.

They assessed the terrain here, jointly perfecting the lethal array set by Sima Fei, then instructed Sikong Lan to lure Ning Qi here.

Sikong Lan was about to cry; asking him to lure Ning Qi was like walking into a trap himself, fearing Ning Qi would kill him immediately!

"Esteemed seniors, I don’t know where Ning Qi is, but since the node appears here, Ning Qi, possessing the Compass, will definitely come!"

Qianying’s eyes gleamed fiercely, "Useless, then what use is there keeping you alive?"

He was about to strike Sikong Lan dead but was stopped by Kuang Shanqing.

Kuang Shanqing said, "Why rush, Qianying? We can wait here for Ning Qi to come, wouldn’t it be wonderful to labor only after rest? As for this guy, we’ll spare his life. Let’s hide on the sidelines and first watch those cultivators from the Mountain and Sea Realm slaughter each other; isn’t that interesting?"

Hearing this, Qianying nodded immediately.

"Kuang, your strategy is excellent. I’ll go with you! Once we capture that Domain Master Ning Qi, the war realm here will belong to our Vast Realm!"
