Chapter 0283: Hard To Shake Soul Essence Cultivator
Coming back to his immortal cave, Ning Cheng for the first time took out both his Twin Wings of the Heavenly Clouds and the Taintless Silver Wing Feathers together. Ning Cheng had been refining his Twin Wings of the Heavenly Clouds from the moment he obtained it; as such at this moment, his Twin Wings of the Heavenly Clouds already had a pair of faint glowing lights on it.
He did not know if he refined this pair of Taintless Silver Wing Feathers into it, would this pair of faint glowing lights turn into two.
In accordance to the introductory jade slip, regarding the approach on how to integrate the Taintless Silver Wing Feathers, Ning Cheng slowly started to refine the Taintless Silver Wing Feathers, while at the same time carefully started to integrate it into his Twin Wings of the Heavenly Clouds.
Twin Wings (双翅) and Twin Wings (双翼) only had a difference of a single character, however after being refined from the Twin Leaves of the Radiant Heavenly Clouds it would be called as Twin Wings (双翅) of the Heavenly Cloud; however, Ning Cheng felt that it being called as Twin Wings (双翼) of the Heavenly Cloud would be more appropriate. After all, these wings were almost as long as his own body, plus his pair of wings were actually refined from the Twin Leaves of the Radiant Heavenly Clouds, as such it was possible to seize it at any time, meaning it was nothing different from a flight type magical weapon. Furthermore, now that he was now refining and integrating the Taintless Silver Wing Feathers into it, as such giving it the name as Twin Wings (双翅) would be much more appropriate.
[TL Note - For those who are confused, Wings (翅) are used for wings that are actually part of the physical body of living creatures, like the wings of birds. While Wings (翼) are used for those that are artificial and used externally, like the wings of gliders.]
A few days later, when the Taintless Silver Wing Feathers was fully integrated into Ning Cheng's Twin Wings of the Heavenly Clouds, two pairs of faint glowing lights emerged on the two pieces of the Twin Wings of the Heavenly Cloud. Furthermore, these two pairs of faintly glowing lights were much softer than the glowing lights from before.
Ning Cheng raised his hand causing the Twin Wings of the Heavenly Clouds to instantly disappear; he could feel that this Twin Wings of the Heavenly Clouds was much different from before. There were a slight flash of light around him, when the next moment he unexpectedly appeared ten feet outside.
So powerful, Ning Cheng thought while being pleasantly surprised in his heart, as he couldn’t help but think that the price he spent on the pair of Taintless Silver Wing Feathers was fully worth it. Even if he wasn't able to procure the jade slip containing the possible whereabouts of the Geocentric 9 Yin Essence, it was still worth its value.
"You want to purchase a Soul Condensing Pill?" In the Rainbow Fall Makeshift Market, a sales representative from the Pill House couldn't help but stare at Ning Cheng with wide eyes. He felt that he might have heard it wrong initially.
Ning Cheng immediately understood the confusion behind the question and knew that what he had asked seemed to be a bit improper, as he hastily spoke up, "I do want to purchase a Soul Condensing Pill, however I also am aware that something like a Soul Condensing Pill would be rarely appear in the market here, as such I would like to ask if you have any idea on where would I be able to purchase the Soul Condensing Pill?"
The man gave a smile of understanding, but still spoke with a bit of ridicule in his voice, "If it was any time before this, then it really would be quite hard to purchase this pill. However, at present there is indeed a place where you could purchase it. That is the Heavenly Dao Public Square; the Heavenly Dao Public Square is where the Great Meet of the Academies is being held. Moreover, the Great Meet is something held for a full three months, and at present there is less than a month left for it to come to a close. However, during this time, almost all the good things in the Tian Continent would be concentrated on the Heavenly Dao Public Square. If you are able to reach that place, then I can guarantee that you would at least be able to hear some news relating to the sale of the Soul Condensing Pill, he, he…."
The last few of his words were to let Ning Cheng understand, that the Heavenly Dao Public Square would have a high chance relating to the sale of the Soul Condensing Pill, however it was not a thing that a Profound Core 6th Level Cultivator like him could lay his hands on.
Although Ning Cheng also understood the meaning behind the words of this man, but he still did not care about it. If he could have found the Soul Condensing Pill at the Rainbow Fall Makeshift Market, then he intended to find a safe place to continue cultivating to the great circle of the Profound Core Realm, and then get ready to assault the barrier of the Soul Essence Realm.
After buying the map of the Tian Continent, Ning Cheng immediately left the Rainbow Fall Makeshift Market.
The Heavenly Dao Public Square was not very far from the Rainbow Fall Makeshift Market; Ning Cheng estimated that with his upgraded Twin Wings of the Heavenly Cloud, he would be able to reach there within two days.
However, after Ning Cheng left the Makeshift Market, he did not bring out his Twin Wings of the Heavenly Clouds. Rather he simply brought out a low grade airship type spiritual artefact. With his powerful spiritual consciousness, the moment he left the Rainbow Fall Makeshift Market, he was already aware that there was someone tracking him. Even if Ning Cheng was found by the cultivator tracking him, he still did not have any fear.
Sure enough, an hour later, a pale red shadow suddenly rushed out before stopping in front of Ning Cheng.
Ning Cheng also jumped out of the airship before calmly putting it away, while at the same time calmly stared into the eyes of the figure who appeared in front of him, "Fu Shengnan. You are similar to a dog skin plaster in wanting to stick to me, is it even possible for a daughter like you to get married even if you come out to parade yourself. I believe that you should be aware that even the top ten major academies' True Inheriting Disciples are rushing out in anxiety to marry me, the Mr. Perfect."
[TL Note – "Mr. Perfect" here is actually an internet slang 'Gao Fu Shuai' that literally translates to 'tall, rich and handsome' but in a condescending yet prideful way.]
The red clothed female cultivator blocking Ning Cheng's path was none other than Fu Shengnan, Ning Cheng had already guessed that this woman would definitely never be grateful to him; as such he decided that there was no need for him to be polite with her.
Although Fu Shengnan did not know what 'Gao Fu Shuai (Mr. Perfect)' meant, but she was certain that these were definitely some kind of boastful words. As her face alternated between green and red, she reluctantly spoke up, "Ning Cheng, although you had not taken the initiative to save me, but for the sake of you saving me unknowingly once at that time, I will forgive you this one time. As long as you agree to one thing….."
Ning Cheng suddenly burst into laughter. "You already know that I saved you, but you still want me to agree to something you want, is your self-perception that high? I really have no idea from where you get this sense of superiority from? Why does your mother and father not feel this kind of superiority? It really is a bit too weird."
Fu Shengnan simply chose to ignore the scolding words of Ning Cheng, and spoke up while trying extremely hard to suppress her anger, "You must not approach that effeminate Xiaomei in the future from now on. It would not bring you any advantages."
"Whether I choose to be close to Xiaomei or not, it is none of your business." Ning Cheng spoke with disdain.
This woman had repeatedly plotted against him, if not for Ning Cheng being aware that he should not start a fight with her immediately, and also for the sake of her being Fu Xiaomei's sister, perhaps he would have already finished her off once for all.
"Good, good, you asked for it…" Fu Shengnan finally couldn't stop her body from trembling violently, she even said the words 'good' twice, before she suddenly brought out a flight type magical weapon, and instantly disappeared without a trace from that spot. Unexpectedly she did not even bother to speak anymore words to Ning Cheng.
With Fu Shengnan gone, Ning Cheng however did not leave, but rather he slowly took out his Profound Break Spear, while simultaneously speaking in a cold voice, "Better get out from your hiding spot. I'm in a hurry right now, so it would be better if you did not hide your head to expose your tail."
Ning Cheng's voice had just fell, when another shadow descended in front of him. This was also a female cultivator, wearing a green cultivator's robe, with her hair tied into a bun. Coupled with her fair face, she was quite beautiful to look at. However this female cultivator was giving off a murderous vibe from her body, apparently she had come here to kill Ning Cheng. With her cultivation of Soul Essence 3rd Level, wanting to kill Ning Cheng, in theory, would not pose any problems.
"I can see that you were already aware that you were being followed by two people, Shengnan and me. It seems I underestimated you a bit. However, even if Shengnan and I do not team up against you, it would still take me only a breath's time to kill you." Once this green robe female cultivator finished, she was immediately covered with a dense layer of murderous aura, it felt as if this kind of imposing aura could even control the space around it.
Ning Cheng was behaving as if he simply did not feel this kind of terrifyingly sharp killing force, as he still spoke in a calm manner, "It's quite strange. I do not know you, so why do you want to kill me? Even if you do want to kill me, then you at least have to give me a reason for it."
"Since you are already dead, so what would giving you a reason be any good for?" As the green robed female cultivator spoke, she immediately waved the long damask in her hands a few times. The color of the long damask and the green robe that she was wearing, were of the same shade of green, allowing this green robed female cultivator to completely blend into it as she attacked. All Ning Cheng could see in front of him were green coloured sword lights. It seems that with each shake of this green damask, the number of green sword lights would increase by several times.
Ning Cheng just gave a casual flick to his Profound Break Spear, causing 36 Profound Ice Spear Lights to instantly erupt from it, which transformed into a huge spear network. This almost instantly formed ice cold spear network immediately moved to block the countless green sword lights. When the Ice Cold Profound Ice Spear Lights and the Green Damask Sword Lights collided with each other, Ning Cheng immediately realized that the other party's true essence was not as thick as his own was.
He was already able to vaguely guess as to who this female cultivator was, when he came out of the Rainbow Fall Sword Sect, there was no one from the outside who knew about it. Moreover, it seems that this female cultivator and Fu Shengnan had come out individually to kill him; as such, he could absolutely be sure that she was also one of the people from the Rainbow Fall Sword Sect. However, this female cultivator was clearly not someone Fu Shengnan had called for help, if it was Fu Shengnan who called for her help, since Fu Shengnan had already left; there was no need for this female cultivator to stay here.
Because of all this, Ning Cheng simply did not have to guess, before he instinctively knew that this female cultivator was one of Wen Han's people. From the looks of it, he could guess that Wen Han was already at the Heavenly Dao Public Square, and this female cultivator had received the orders passed down by Wen Han, and as such specifically came here for Ning Cheng.
Moreover, all the cultivators were very clear on this point, that the gap between the Soul Essence Realm and the Profound Core Realm was not something that could be compared to the gap between the Profound Congealing Realm and the Profound Core Realm. At least in the Yi Xing Mainland, it was something extremely rare for a Profound Core Realm cultivator to be able to block an attack from a Soul Essence Realm cultivator. Moreover, even if there were such proficient Profound Core Cultivators around, they would have to be at least at the Great Circle of the Profound Core Realm in order to achieve such a result. Ning Cheng was only an intermediate stage Profound Core 6th Level Cultivator, compared to this green robed female cultivator who was at the Soul Essence 3rd Level, battling against her from any view was akin to showcasing a death wish.
Because of which this green robed female cultivator gave a cold sneer as she softly spoke, "Go die."
Just a measly Profound Core 6th Level Cultivator, even daring to use a spear technique to block her Green Damask Sword Light, if this was not courting death then what was?
If Ning Cheng were replaced by any other Profound Core 6th Level Cultivator, then it indeed would result in their death. However this kind of reasoning could not be applied to Ning Cheng, not to mention that Ning Cheng's spiritual consciousness was already much stronger than the green robed female cultivator's, even Ning Cheng's true essence was much more resilient than hers. The only point on which Ning Cheng was inferior to the other party was that he had still not yet condensed the embryonic form of his Soul Essence, which allowed the other party in utilizing far less true essence and spiritual consciousness than him in battle.
However, Ning Cheng's powerful spiritual consciousness was tempered in the Chaotic Star Space, as such its strength and resilience was on a much higher level than this green robed female cultivator.
"Bang bang bang bang……" The Profound Ice Spear Lights and the others party's Green Damask Sword Light immediately collided together, causing enormous surges of true essence to burst out in the form of vortexes.
Those countless green damask sword lights were like beans being fried in a pan, as they rapidly shrunk down as they weakened. With the green damask sword lights grounded down, the green robed female cultivator finally was able to experience the terrible might of the spear light network, which immediately forced her to take a step back. An ice cold aura invaded her, while at the same time she also received many minor injuries.
"How is this possible……" The green robed female cultivator was still shocked as to how such a thing was possible, when Ning Cheng rumbled towards her with his Cosmic True Devil Axe. At this moment, how could the green robed female cultivator look down on him, however, she really could not understand as to how Ning Cheng was able to grab this kind of opportunity?
A tearing distortion appeared in the air in front of her as the axe trace directly pierced through the distance between the green robed female cultivator and Ning Cheng. Everything in front of the Axe Trace, even the air itself, was directly torn apart into nothingness. Before the green robed female cultivator, the imposing aura of the Soul Essence Realm that she had release previously, had completely vanished into thin air under this fear inducing Axe Trace.
Seeing the incomparably clear Ace Trace make its way close to the point in between her eyebrows, she was even able to make out the fine Axe Lines around the Axe Trace. Seeing this, the green robed female cultivator was suddenly frightened out of her wits, how could she continue to think that Ning Cheng only had the cultivation of the Profound Core 6th Level? In anxiousness, she even started burning her essence blood, while simultaneously bringing out a small cauldron.
After this small cauldron was brought out, it immediately started to expand and reached the size of a ten feet wide huge cauldron, but not waiting for this cauldron to continue expanding its own imposing aura, Ning Cheng's axe already struck the top of the cauldron.
"Boom….." A horrifying sound blasted out, although the green robed female cultivator was not able to clearly see Ning Cheng striking out a moment before, she had instinctively brought out a huge cauldron for her defence, causing her to crazily spray out a mouthful of blood on being struck. The huge cauldron had opened up slightly for a short moment because of being struck by the Cosmic True Devil Axe, causing the Axe Line, with a very fast speed, to pass through the huge cauldron, as it made its way towards the arm of the green robed female cultivator.

Chapter 0284: Vicious Male Cultivator
"Poof" A spurt of blood shot out like an arrow, as the green robed female cultivator's arm was directly lopped off by Ning Cheng's Axe Live, before it started to fall down.
The green robed female cultivator was completely shocked, she did not wait for her arm to land on the ground before she dived, caught it, and then rapidly retreated a moment later. She never thought that in front of her combat methods, she would still find herself at a loss of an arm against a Profound Core 6th Level Cultivator.
Ning Cheng simply did not think much of it, as he once again swept out with his Cosmic True Devil Axe. As he swept out with his axe, the berserk killing intent immediately took the shape of a vortex as he sent it smashing towards the green robed female cultivator. He wanted to take this opportunity to kill her for the last time. He knew that the reason he was able to lop of an arm of that green robed female cultivator, was entirely because this green robed female cultivator had completely underestimated him. If this green robed female cultivator had taken him seriously from the start, then he might have not necessarily succeeded. However, he was also aware that in the end, even if he could not kill this green robed female cultivator immediately, he at least would be able to wear her down to her death with some effort.
The green robed female cultivator was finally able to regain her wits, she at this moment finally understood that Ning Cheng was completely different from the other ordinary Profound Core Cultivators. Not only was he different from them, he was also in no way inferior to her.
At this moment, she was well aware that she could not continue on carelessly, the huge cauldron defending in front of her once again expanded, and in just a blink of an eye transformed into an even larger and huge cauldron that surpassed its previous ten feet size, completely encompassing her body.
That seemingly inexhaustible vortex comprised of axe shadows finally struck the top of the cauldron.
"Boom boom boom……" Bursts of berserk explosions sounded out, even the surrounding sand and gravel were also ground up into dust.
However once the last axe shadow from the vortex finally struck, the green robed female cultivator was once again sent out tumbling continuously, causing the expression on the face of the green robed female cultivator to turn solemn. At this point, she fully understood that even if she did not underestimate Ning Cheng, she was not necessarily Ning Cheng's opponent. At best, she might be able to end the battle in a draw. From the moment she had set herself on the path of cultivation to this present moment, she had never seen any Profound Core Cultivator as powerful and as fierce as Ning Cheng.
Ning Cheng currently had his cultivation in the Profound Core Realm, once Ning Cheng advanced to the Soul Essence Realm, just how terrifying would he be then?
Ning Cheng was also similarly forced back by the true essence shockwaves, causing him to back up a few steps. He couldn't help but give a dark sigh in his heart; it looks like it would not be easy for him to kill this green robed female cultivator, unless the other party decided to not escape. If not for him lopping one of her arm, then maybe he would have to use a few of his trump cards before he could gain an upper hand in the exchange.
The green robed woman at this moment forcibly calmed herself down, while she swallowed some pills, while simultaneously controlled her green damask to cover the space above her head. It caused an extremely sharp imposing aura to once again gather around her. She had already deduced that she might not be an opponent of Ning Cheng, but because of the arrogance built up in her because of her Soul Essence Cultivation; it made her reluctant to turn face and escape from a Profound Core Cultivator.
Originally, Ning Cheng wanted to continue attacking, but then he suddenly gave a cold snort and said, "Count yourself to be lucky today, next time you bump into me, you might not be so lucky."
Finished saying that, Ning Cheng immediately moved to his side, before he instantly disappeared.
The green robed female cultivator stared in shock at the spot from when Ning Cheng disappeared from, and even seemed to have forgotten about her severed arm that she had just picked up. No matter what point of view she tried to analyse it, Ning Cheng had occupied the absolute advantage, as such why would he take the initiative to retreat?
As the green robed woman continued to stare in front of her stupidly, a red shadow descended, "Senior Apprentice Sister Xi Xing. Have you already killed……"
The red robed female cultivator had not finished, when she abruptly stopped speaking, as she realized that this green robed female cultivator had actually lost an arm. Seeing that, she couldn't help but freeze up for a long while, before she finally managed to ask. "What happened?"
The green robed female cultivator was still heavily terrified in her heart, she had not noticed Fu Shengnan's arrival however it seems that Profound Core 6th Level Cultivator had sensed Fu Shengnan's arrival even before her. No wonder this Profound Core Cultivator took the initiative to leave. It seems that he originally was aware that he would not be an opponent against two Soul Essence Cultivators.
"I am not his opponent." The green robed female cultivator called Xi Xing spoke in a trembling voice, as she tremblingly picked up her arm, and then took out a few pills before swallowing them and sitting down on the ground on the same spot to try to contain her injuries.
Hearing those words, Fu Shengnan's heart immediately went into shock; she had never thought that Xi Xing would not be an opponent for Ning Cheng. Although Ning Cheng's cultivation progress was not small, but he was still only at the level of Profound Core 6th Level in the end. Moreover, he had advanced to the Profound Core 6th Level inside the Small Spiritual Domain without coming out, as such theoretically he should not have much experience, so how could he contend against a Soul Essence 3rd Level Cultivator? It was something absolutely impossible.
With her heart full of doubts, Fu Shengnan could only wait for Xi Xing to stand up, before she hurriedly asked, "Senior Apprentice Sister Xi Xing, you said that you are not a match for Ning Cheng, it this really true?"
Xi Xing glanced at Fu Shengnan before speaking, "That is true, I am truly not his opponent. If not for you coming, I might have already died at his hands, this person is simply too terrifying. Currently he only has the cultivation of Profound Core 6th Level. Once he advances to the Soul Essence Realm, then all he would have to do is just raise his hand to kill me. Not to mention Wen Han, even it was Senior Apprentice Brother Que; I estimate that even he would not be Ning Cheng's opponent at that time. This time, I ended up falling to that Wen Han's schemes, if I had known that the person I was coming to kill would be this powerful, I would have definitely not coveted the point advantage that he offered."
As Xi Xing finished speaking, she brought out a flight type magical weapon before he turned around and flew away, without even asking Fu Shengnan if she wanted to come together with her.
Fu Shengnan looked at the disappearing back of Xi Xing, she was aware as to what her last words implied and also knew that they were directed at her, in order for her to pass them to Wen Han.
Silently watching the crisscrossing gullies that had formed at the site because of the battle, Fu Shengnan suddenly became somewhat scared in her heart. If she truly had gone after Ning Cheng at that time, then maybe before she could have the chance to leave, Ning Cheng might have already killed her. Compared to Xi Xing, she was well aware that the gap between the two of them was not small at all.
Although Ning Cheng left but he was not joyful about it, with respect to other ordinary cultivators, he was indeed powerful enough to smile and laugh without any worries. However, Ning Cheng was well aware that his strength was far from being enough.
On this trip to the Heavenly Dao Public Square, he might end up meeting Wen Han, or maybe he might even encounter that sickly man from the Red Star Sword Faction. If he ended up meeting that sickly looking man, then there was nothing to say about it, the only thing he could do was to turn around and flee with all his might. But if he met Wen Han, Ning Cheng would not be willing to escape. He and this person were not even acquaintances, yet this person had plotted several times to kill him. How could Ning Cheng forgive Wen Han for it? Although he was a good person at heart but that did not mean that, he was someone who on being slapped on one cheek would immediately show the other cheek.
In case of no or absurd reason, if another person slapped him, if he did not slap them back at least ten times, then he would definitely feel uncomfortable in his heart, let alone Wen Han who plotted to kill him at least twice till now?
Unfortunately, if his Golden Core had not caught fire at that time, then he would currently be at the Profound Core 7th Level, and would have absolutely easily killed that Soul Essence 3rd Level female cultivator. Moreover, once he reached the Profound Core 7th Level, then he estimated that he would no longer have to be afraid of facing Wen Han.
The Profound Core 7th Level was classified as Late Stage Profound Core Realm, while the Profound Core 6th Level was classified as Intermediate Stage Profound Core Realm. Although there was only a gap of a single level, but this one level gap was not simple at all. As such, he had to cultivate to the Profound Core 7th Level before he could go to the Heavenly Dao Public Square, Ning Cheng thought until here and immediately stopped.
However, there was also the case that he did not have any backing in the Tian Continent, although Elder Bei was good to him, it was only because he was a disciple of the Rainbow Fall Sword Sect. In other words, Elder Bei would also likely to have the same attitude towards Wen Han.
Was it possible to cultivate to the Profound Core 7th Level with just a few tens of thousands of spirit stones? If he could obtain a few 'Spiritual Mist Pills' then it would be the best, as the 'Spiritual Mist Pills' were one of the best pills for a Profound Core Cultivator to break past a bottleneck. He still had a few Mist Orchids with him, but unfortunately, he did not have the ability to turn the Mist Orchids into 'Spiritual Mist Pills'.
'Spiritual Mist Pills' were also Level 5 Profound Pills; as such he could not yet produce them.
Ning Cheng couldn't help but scratch his head, strength, it all boiled down to personal strength.
"How can I be so stupid?" Ning Cheng suddenly remembered that he still had approximately a million contribution points on him, although he could not exchange it for 'Soul Condensing Pills', but he could still exchange it for 'Spiritual Mist Pills'.
That's not right; I should first go and take a look at the location of the last assignment. As Ning Cheng thought about contribution points, he couldn't help but think back to the last assignment of that ancient immortal cave, causing him to look forward to going there. Prior to his departure, he had warned the old Life Essence in the immortal cave. Forcing the old Life Essence to bury a few good things at the original location. Maybe that Life Essence really was fooled by him.
Thinking about this, Ning Cheng couldn’t help but feel a fiery heat rising up in his heart, he no longer went with the thought of going back to the academy for the 'Spiritual Mist Pills'. With a flash of his Twin Wings of the Heavenly Clouds, he instantly rushed towards the battlefield of the Great Liang True Country and the Northern Shang True Country, where the ancient immortal cave had appeared.
Now that the Twin Wings of the Heavenly Clouds had been upgraded to Level 2, Ning Cheng couldn't help but try to wield it in an unbridled manner, and in less than a day, Ning Cheng once again arrived at the location.
This place was still as desolate as before, full of potholes, with the background strewn about with broken pieces of weapons and magical weapon fragments, which accentuated its desolate look.
Ning Cheng put away the Twin Wings of the Heavenly Clouds, and fully stretched out his spiritual consciousness. He quickly was able to find the original position from where he had disappeared, before he landed on the ground.
With Ning Cheng's current cultivation, although he had not yet learned any magical techniques that would help him move through the ground. But pushing aside the soil to enter the ground was still not much of a burden for him.
Ning Cheng did not cultivate any kind of earth related cultivation methods, plus since he was looking for things underground, coupled with his spiritual consciousness having a restricted range underground, his speed was also quite slow.
Fortunately, Ning Cheng's spiritual consciousness was something that he had tempered in the Chaotic Star Space; as such, it was extremely powerful. Even when he had deployed it under the ground, his search range was much larger than any other ordinary Soul Essence Cultivator.
Searching for a full day, Ning Cheng was finally starting to get tired from continuously using his spiritual consciousness, without obtaining any results to show for the efforts. Just as he was about to curse at the Life Essence from that ancient immortal cave, he suddenly felt a tremble from surroundings.
It looks like there is someone fighting above, Ning Cheng immediately understood. He hurriedly concealed himself even deeper, while simultaneously sent out his spiritual consciousness upwards in a careful manner.
Immediately, Ning Cheng was able to see two Soul Essence 9th Level Cultivators bounce back in a tumbling manner seemingly from a clash. There were two people fighting, a man and a woman, who did not seem to be too old. As he observed for a while, Ning Cheng could feel that there was something wrong. He could see that the female cultivator's actions were somewhat jerky in nature while at the same time she was also staggering as she moved.
It seems that this female cultivator has been poisoned; Ning Cheng immediately came to understand. Something that could poison a Soul Essence Female Cultivator of this level, it seems that this poison would definitely not be something simple.
Looking at these two cultivators clash, he could also deduce that these two definitely belonged to some major academy. Thinking of this, Ning Cheng had a thought in his mind, as he took out a Scryer Crystal and began to record everything.
"Jiang Jun you bastard, I Tan Yushan was truly blind, that I even took a fancy to a sick son-of-a-bitch like you. I finally understood today, as to how my master died……" The female cultivator seemed to already have realized that she would be dying today without a doubt, as she shouted out abuse after abuse.
That male cultivator called as Jiang Jun was still silent; however, he was quite swift and fierce with his actions, as he even took out a Talisman, activating it in an instant.
Ning Cheng was someone who could be said to be familiar with refining Talismans; as such, he only had to glance at this Talisman, before Ning Cheng understood that the one in the hands of the male cultivator was a Level 6 Flame Explosion Talisman. From his point of view, this male cultivator already occupied the absolute advantage, but now he even took out a Flame Explosion Talisman, it was clear that he wanted to end this battle quickly.
Ning Cheng sighed, he wanted to very much lend a hand, but he also knew that if he did that he definitely would die in the process. Even if he did not die, now that this male cultivator had brought out and activated that Talisman, it was already too late for him to make an attempt.
In the violent explosion that ensued, although that female cultivator somehow managed to escape death, but she was still blown back suffering grievous injuries. However, that male cultivator was also not someone soft hearted, as he threw out a flying sword that immediately pierced through the head of that female cultivator, killing her in an instant.
