Chapter 226 - Crisis Averted
Chapter 226 Crisis Averted
Luan Shijian felt the violent power of the dao realm bursting out from the copper knife, nibbling away at his vitality.
An unfamiliar young face was staring at him with a pair of cold eyes. “Who are you…?”
Luan Shijian asked with difficulty.
He wanted to fight back, but the violent power of the dao realm and the tyrannical aura emitted by the copper knife had already made his body stiffen, and his life aura was weakening away. Generally speaking, even if a martial artist’s heart was pierced through, they would not die immediately, but if their body was injected with the power of the dao realm, it would be difficult to persist. “You came here to find me, right?”
Xu Ning tilted his head.
After returning to the land in the Abyss North, Xu Ning went to the Moon Gazing Sect first.
And as soon as Xu Ning arrived at the Moon Gazing Sect, he encountered the fifteen Jade Night Sect disciples.
Just like the previous batch of disciples, they were easily suppressed by Xu Ning and were captured alive.
The fact that Xu Ning had advanced to the dao realm shocked Yuan Yuan, Si Ying, and the others.
Even Gray and Xu Hujun didn’t expect Xu Ning to advance so quickly.
Afterwards, Xu Ning learned from the captured disciples that Elder Luan Shijian of the Jade Night Sect had gone to the Yuelan Sect, preparing to destroy the Yuelan Sect, so he rushed over to the Yuelan Sect with Wan Ye.
As soon as he approached the Yuelan Sect, Xu Ning saw Du Yuan and Duan Qinghui unconscious, with Qiu Renshan ready to be killed at any time.
At the critical moment, Xu Ning activated the copper knife and the Wind Smoke Gourd, seriously injuring Luan Shijian in an instant.
Although Luan Shijian was also at the peak of the body smelting realm, his foundation was still weak compared to Xu Ning’s six attribute seeds.
Moreover, the most important reason for this successful kill was the power of the Wind Smoke Gourd.
Xu Ning activated the Wind Smoke Gourd this time, releasing the gray fog, but he did not activate the poison. But even so, when the gray fog and wind smoke from the Wind Smoke Gourd were released, it could isolate the perception of a body smelting realm martial artist, while allowing Xu Ning to sense everything inside the gray fog.
Thus, Xu Ning easily succeeded in his attack in this way.
“You are… that Yuelan Sect disciple…”
Luan Shijian finally knew Xu Ning’s identity at the end of his life.
After sensing the danger, he planned to activate his life-saving treasure and teleport away.
But after being enveloped by the gray fog and wind smoke, the spatial transfer device lost its effectiveness.
“I only wanted to negotiate with the Jade Night Sect, but you want to destroy the Yuelan Sect. Since this is the case, we can only fight to the death.”
Xu Ning activated the will of the cyan wolf in the copper knife again. And the violent power spilled out, taking away Luan Shijian’s last trace of life. Xu Ning had asked Wan Ye about the secrets of the copper knife and the copper fan.
This pair of copper knife and fan were a type of special dao weapon. These two special dao weapons were refined with the blood essence of a high level dao realm demon beast, the Blizzard Cyan Wolf.
That Blizzard Cyan Wolf was the source of Cyan’s bloodline.
These two dao weapons could be used by human martial arts masters, but Cyan could also use them by activating his bloodline power.
These two special dao weapons were stolen by Gu Juan and another person when Wan Ye’s injuries relapsed. And after being lost for a while, they finally fell into Xu Ning’s hands.
After understanding all of this, Xu Ning returned the Cyan Wolf Fan to Cyan, leaving only the Cyan Wolf Knife for himself.
After advancing to the dao realm, Xu Ning could easily use this Cyan Wolf Knife. He could perfectly control the tyrannical power of the cyan wolf’s will, while not suffering the backlash from before. “This gray fog came so suddenly, what is going on?’
Qiu Renshan was also enveloped in this gray fog, which completely isolated his perception. He was already in a desperate situation, but suddenly this gray fog suddenly came and changed everything.
‘This gray fog is extremely terrifying!
Qiu Renshan could sense a terrifying power in the gray fog. If it moved, it could easily kill him.
Just when Qiu Renshan was about to escape from the gray fog, he noticed that the gray fog around him suddenly began to flow.
Swoosh!
The gray fog was absorbed into a pure white gourd in two to three seconds.
After seeing the owner of the pure white gourd, Qiu Renshan felt his vision blur. He thought he didn’t see it clearly. “Xu Ning?!”
After confirming repeatedly, Qiu Renshan was certain.
Xu Ning’s temperament had changed greatly.
Luan Shijian’s corpse was lying next to him. “Elder Qiu!”
Xu Ning quickly went to Qiu Renshan’s side and directed his dao realm power into Qiu Renshan’s body to stabilize his injuries.
Xu Ning currently did not have any pills that could heal the injuries of a dao realm master.
He could sense that Qiu Renshan was seriously injured.
Qiu Renshan had forcibly broken through to the dao realm, so his foundation was already unstable. Moreover, he was also violently attacked by Luan Shijian, which seriously injured his body.
“Don’t worry about me, go and see Elder Du Yuan and Elder Duan Qinghui first.”
Qiu Renshan said to Xu Ning.
Xu Ning went to check on Du Yuan and Duan Qinghui.
‘Elder Du Yuan’s injuries are very serious…’
Xu Ning discovered that Du Yuan was on the verge of death. He could die at any time.
He quickly directed a wisp of dao realm power into his body to disperse Luan Shijian’s dao realm power.
But even so, Du Yuan still didn’t wake up, but fortunately, he was still alive for the time being.
Xu Ning went to stabilize Duan Qinghui’s injuries.
Although Duan Qinghui strictly had a feud with Mi Xingye in the past, Xu Ning did not feel any estrangement from him as he had stood up for Yuelan Sect in the face of death.
Duan Qinghui slowly regained consciousness.
“Elders, there seems to be some trouble in the sect, I will go and solve it first.”
Xu Ning disappeared and entered the sect.
There were still five Jade Night Sect disciples in the Yuelan Sect who were causing chaos.
“Xu Ning actually advanced to the dao realm…”
Duan Qinghui coughed lightly, unable to calm down for a long time.
The Sect Master and elders all knew that Xu Ning had gone to find an opportunity to advance to the dao realm.
It was just that they didn’t expect Xu Ning to really find it and return at such an important time. Moreover, Xu Ning’s current strength had far exceeded that of an ordinary body smelting realm martial artist.
“That’s right, he is the number one genius since the founding of the Yuelan Sect…”
Qiu Renshan said with a look of relief in his eyes.
“No, he might be the number one genius in the history of the seventeen states of the Abyss North.”
An old man suddenly appeared beside the two.
Because Qiu Renshan and Duan Qinghui were both seriously injured, they did not notice the old man at all.
Seeing the old man, the faces of the two stiffened again. They thought the visitor was Luan Shijian’s helper.
“Don’t panic.”
The old man saw the alertness of the two and explained, “I know Xu Ning, and my name is Wan Ye.”
“Old Man Wan Ye!?”
After hearing Wan Ye’s introduction, Qiu Renshan and Duan Qinghui’s hearts trembled.
They all knew very well that Old Man Wan Ye was one of the reasons why the Jade Night Sect came to the seventeen states of the Abyss North.
And he just appeared in front of them like this.
“These can heal your injuries.”
Three pills appeared in Wan Ye’s palm. Two of them fell into the hands of Qiu Renshan and Duan Qinghui, while the other one was stuffed into the mouth of the unconscious Du Yuan.
Xu Ning did not have a pill to heal the injuries of a dao realm master, but Wan Ye did.
Wan Ye and Xu Ning actually set off from the Moon Gazing Sect at the same time and rushed back to the Yuelan Sect.
But Xu Ning was eager to protect his sect, so he traveled extremely fast. Wan Ye actually couldn’t catch up to his speed, so he had just arrived.
Looking at Luan Shijian’s body on the ground, Wan Ye already knew what had happened.
“Cough, cough…”
After getting fed the medicinal pill, Du Yuan began to react.
Seeing Du Yuan’s reaction, Qiu Renshan and Duan Qinghui no longer had any worries. They immediately swallowed the pill.
As soon as the pills entered their stomachs, they felt their injuries were healing faster.
“Thank you, Senior Wan Ye.”
Qiu Renshan and Duan Qinghui stood up and thanked Wan Ye.
They all guessed that the dao realm opportunity Xu Ning had mentioned should be related to Old Man Wan Ye.
The five Jade Night Sect disciples in the Yuelan Sect were easily subdued by Xu Ning.
After learning that Xu Ning had advanced to the dao realm and resolved the crisis of the sect, Mi Xingye felt that everything was a blur. Everything felt unreal. Coincidentally, Wan Ye and the three elders had also returned to the sect at this moment.
“Master, this is Senior Wan Ye. He helped me advance to the dao realm.”
Xu Ning introduced.
“Old Man Wan Ye?”
Mi Xingye was shocked, but he still bowed.
“This is my master, Mi Xingye, the Sect Master of the Yuelan Sect.”
Xu Ning introduced again.
After a short exchange, Mi Xingye said, “I will take the three elders to rest. Xu Ning, you will accompany Senior Wan Ye first.”
“Yes.”
Xu Ning responded.
“Senior Wan Ye, do you want to walk around the Yuelan Sect?”
Xu Ning said as the four left.
“Forget it, you should recover your strength first.”
Wan Ye stroked his beard and said with a smile.
Xu Ning heard him and nodded.
He did sense that his body was in a deficient state. This feeling was similar to when he practiced martial arts or fought against enemies in the mortal realm after exhausting all his energy.
“Now do you know why a dao realm master would go to State Wansheng after advancing?”
Wan Ye said.
“I do.”
Xu Ning smiled helplessly.
Replenishing the dao realm power consumed required one to absorb the surrounding spiritual energy.
However, the spiritual energy on the land of the Abyss North was too thin.
When he was in the mortal realm, Xu Ning could recover to his peak state in a short period of time.
But now, before he could even release his full potential, he felt that the recovery process was very slow. “It’s fine for a body smelting realm martial artist, but once you advance to the astral qi realm, I don’t know how long you will have to rest after a battle. It may even cause your strength to decline.”
As he said that, Wan Ye took out two more pills that could help in the recovery of dao realm power.
Xu Ning took and swallowed them, accelerating the recovery of his dao realm power.
“Also, this storage ring was obtained from that elder of the Jade Night Sect.”
Wan Ye handed the storage ring to Xu Ning.
