C3023 The Situation Is Not Looking Good
The situation isn't looking good.
When they arrived at the Yuqing Sect, Ning Qi had to pay a visit to Patriarch Yuqing first. Therefore, Bei Xiao and Bei Meng were handed over to Kong Wenn.
It was still that familiar valley.
After Ning Qi walked into the valley, he saw a bamboo building not far away. Patriarch Yuqing was sitting in front of a stone table, continuously playing chess pieces. He placed them into the rolling white fog on the stone table. Occasionally, miserable screams could be heard from inside.
"Master is killing people again. Every time he comes, he will kill people. There was a time when he passed by a certain planet, and he also kills people... Is it really as I guessed, 365 days a year? Master never changes, and has always been doing this kind of thing?"
Ning Qi thought as he walked.
"Master."
Ning Qi walked to the front and back of the stone table and cupped his hands in greeting. After that, he stood aside and waited for Patriarch Yuqing to finish his work.
After about the time it took to make a cup of tea, with the last cry, the thick fog on the table disappeared. Patriarch Yuqing revealed a satisfied smile and said, "Wipe out another family."
After a pause, he looked at Ning Qi and said, "I'm very happy that you can survive this time."
"Thank you, Master, for helping me last time."
Ning Qi said respectfully.
He didn't change his attitude towards Patriarch Yuqing, who was only a Mysterious Immortal, just because he was already a Primordial Immortal. It wasn't only because of Patriarch Yuqing's true cultivation base, but also because he was extremely terrifying. It was also because Ning Qi truly respected Patriarch Yuqing in his heart.
"What are you thanking me for? I didn't help much, and you even broke my hand."
Patriarch Yuqing said lightly.
Ning Qi looked at his right hand awkwardly and saw that it was still intact. Only then did he heave a sigh of relief in his heart. How terrifying was his strength at that time? Ning Qi knew that Patriarch Yuqing could exchange a blow with him. However, his hand bones were only broken. This meant that the strength that Ancestor Ming Yu had hidden behind her back was... Perhaps... it was far beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
"Master, I am very curious. You have killed so many people. Have those people offended the enemies of the Yuqing Sect?"
Ning Qi cleverly changed the topic and asked the question in his heart.
Patriarch Yuqing stroked his beard with a smile and said, "Now that it has come to this, we will get straight to the point. You are an Ancient Immortal."
"En."
Ning Qi nodded and looked at the Ancient Immortal God Ring in his hand. From the moment he took this ring, he had already become a member of the Ancient Immortal Sect. However, he suspected that even if it wasn't this ring, he might still be an Ancient Immortal!
"I am also an ancient immortal, and the people I killed were the descendants of the immortals who attacked the Ancient Immortal Clan while they were down."
Patriarch Yuqing said with a smile.
Ning Qi was slightly startled. He didn't expect that there was such a relationship behind Patriarch Yuqing's attack. In other words, Patriarch Yuqing had been taking revenge on the descendants of his enemies who attacked the Ancient Immortal Clan while they were down.
"It's a pity that there were too many people who attacked us when we were down. I have killed them for so many years, but I still haven't killed them all."
Patriarch Yuqing sighed.
"Master, may I ask how many have you killed in all these years?"
Ning Qi asked curiously.
"Eight hundred million without one billion."
Patriarch Yuqing said faintly.
Although his tone was indifferent, Ning Qi seemed to feel an overwhelming killing intent at that moment. It came straight at him, causing a layer of cold sweat to form on his back.
Even without one billion, there would still be eight hundred million...
Wasn't he killing too many people?
In the eyes of those who didn't know the truth, Patriarch Yuqing was no different from a devil. However, Ning Qi's standpoint was on the same side as Patriarch Yuqing. Therefore, other than feeling slightly shocked, he didn't have any other thoughts.
"Those little fellows you just met have pretty good cultivation techniques. You can practice them when you have time. They might be useful in the future."
Patriarch Yuqing suddenly smiled.
Ning Qi smiled, thinking that Patriarch Yuqing should have already known that he had sent Nuwa out.
"Master, you also know about the Heavenly Source Rock?"
Ning Qi's eyes moved.
"Heavenly Source Rock..."
Patriarch Yuqing said slowly, "It is not a stone from our Immortal Realm. It was passed down from the Shenluo Realm. Sometimes, you may be able to cut out pills and techniques from it. Cut out magical weapons... But sometimes, you might be able to cut out death from within... Cut out a disaster. Before the Great Immortal and Devil War, Heavenly Source Rock had been very popular in Immortal Realm for a period of time. Many people had become rich overnight because of it, and had broken through their bottlenecks. However, later on, someone cut out a person from the Heavenly Source Rock. "
"Cut out a person?"
Ning Qi was stunned.
"That person is called Chiang Tianshu."
Patriarch Yuqing said with a smile.
"Hiss..."
Ning Qi sucked in a breath of cold air in his heart.
He looked at Patriarch Yuqing in disbelief.
He seemed to know an incredible secret. The fourth step of Chiang Tianshu was actually cut out from the Heavenly Source Rock?
How was this possible...
"Therefore, this kind of thing can be played occasionally. It's easy to see a ghost if you play a few more times."
Patriarch Yuqing sighed, "Who knew that cutting a Heavenly Source Rock would result in a great war between Immortals and Demons? Cut our Ancient Immortal Clan's 408 drops?"
Ning Qi didn't say anything, because he didn't know what to say.
"The Devil Ancestor Heart is in your body right now, right? Use it well. Don't think that it's something left behind by the Devil Ancestor. There is a taboo. As long as you can ensure that your mind doesn't lose consciousness, that is a great opportunity for you to step into the Third Step. Right now, the Heavenly Dao family was using the same trick again, preparing to be a coward. On the Devil Clan's side... We will have to rely on the Ancient Immortals to fight them, but all of this is just a delaying tactic for the Heavenly Dao family. When Chiang Tianshu makes his move, both the Devil Clan and us will have to die. I estimate that we'll have to bear the reputation of a traitor of the Immortal Clan for the second time, so... "
Patriarch Yuqing sighed, "The situation isn't looking good."
"Master, is there no other way?"
Ning Qi said with an ugly expression.
"There is, there is a way. I heard that there are a lot of powerful warriors in Shenluo Realm. If there is an Ancient Immortal, he can enter Shenluo Realm and cultivate himself to be stronger than Chiang Tianshu. Doesn't that mean he has the final say in the matters in Immortal Realm? Unfortunately, it was easy to come out of the Shenluo Realm, but it was extremely difficult to enter. Even the fourth step, Daneng, can't open it casually."
Patriarch Yuqing shook his head.
Ning Qi's expression changed. He immediately thought of the door that had swallowed Jian Xilai and the others.
Wasn't that door opened by relying on the Devil Ancestor Heart? If that was really the Shenluo Realm, perhaps he had a way to enter it.1
"En? Found it."
Patriarch Yuqing's eyes suddenly lit up. The table was filled with white fog again. Ning Qi saw that he was preparing to play chess again, so he bowed and said, "Master, take your time. Disciple will leave first."
...
"Uncle Ning, you are here? I was thinking whether I should cut it open and take a look."
Bei Meng and Bei Xiao were accompanied by a few disciples of the Yuqing Sect. They were chatting in a beautiful courtyard. When Bei Meng saw Ning Qi walking over, she immediately stood up and went to greet him.
When the other disciples of the Yuqing Sect saw this, they also stood up and looked at Ning Qi with admiration and excitement.
"Oh, don't cut it off for now."
Ning Qi looked at the Rock Bead in Bei Meng's hand. When he recalled that someone had cut Chiang Tianshu out, he felt a chill in his heart.
What if he cut the fourth step out?
"Oh... Alright then..."
Bei Meng nodded in disappointment.
"I need to return to the Profound Sword Sect. Do you want to go together?"
Ning Qi said with a smile.
"Let's go together."
Bei Meng nodded.
