Chapter 227 - Taking the Initiative
Chapter 227 Taking the Initiative
“His storage ring…”
Xu Ning took it from Wan Ye’s hand.
Because Xu Ning was in a hurry to solve the troubles in the sect, he didn’t have the time to take the storage ring from Luan Shijian.
Xu Ning erased the mark in the storage ring and checked it. He found that there were many recovery pills inside. The refinement technique of these pills was not difficult. Even if he had not practiced a dao realm alchemy technique, Xu Ning could still barely refine them. However, it was difficult to find all the materials needed to refine these pills in the seventeen states of the Abyss North.
‘These recovery pills should be specially brought to deal with the lack of spiritual energy in the seventeen states of the Abyss North.’
Xu Ning guessed.
In addition to a large number of recovery pills, the knuckle dao weapon that Luan Shijian used previously was also in the storage ring. “So, what are your next plans?”
Wan Ye asked Xu Ning
“I plan to rest and adjust my body to the best possible state before taking the initiative to find the people from the Jade Night Sect and completely get rid of this trouble.”
Xu Ning’s eyes flashed.
Since the people of the Jade Night Sect wanted to destroy the Yuelan Sect, he must make them pay a heavy price.
“Are you confident?”
Wan Ye raised his eyebrows.
“Yes.”
Xu Ning nodded. “The Wind Smoke Gourd given to me by Senior Jin Meng is extremely powerful. Even if it is one against many, I can separate them one by one and slowly deal with them. If the poisonous effect is activated, I will even have a chance to fight against a second stage astral qi realm martial artist.”
“Is that so?”
Wan Ye sighed.
Thinking back to when he was in the body smelting realm, he was overjoyed when he first broke through to the dao realm, whilst also being deathly afraid of facing other body smelting realm masters.
But Xu Ning, on the other hand, who had just broken through, had already begun to plan how he would defeat an astral qi realm master.
“Now that Senior have taken the initiative to appear, your whereabouts may soon be heard by the people of the Jade Night Sect, so we have to finish them off.”
Xu Ning took the initiative to confess. “Moreover, the Demon Beast Scroll is on Gray, so the people of the Jade Night Sect are a threat that must be dealt with.”
“Gray, you mean the void beast? The Demon Beast Scroll is on it?”
Wan Ye frowned.
“Yes.”
Xu Ning responded.
Wan Ye shook his head helplessly.
The person and the item that the Jade Night Sect wanted were all with Xu Ning.
Moreover, the conflict between the two sides was already irreconcilable, and the final result of this conflict was a decisive battle.
“Do you still need any recovery pills?”
Wan Ye asked, planning to prepare for Xu Ning’s upcoming battle.
“No need, this storage ring has a lot of basic medicinal pills that are effective for dao realm masters. There are enough for me to use.”
Xu Ning responded.
“In this case, you should find a place and slowly recuperate.”
Wan Ye said.
Afterwards, Mi Xingye helped the three elders.
After a few hours, Yuan Cheng returned.
With his return, he brought a dao realm master from the Source Sect in State Wansheng.
The name of the dao realm master was Teng Yunkong, and he was one of the two dao realm masters who had returned to the Source Sect in the Abyss North. He was a peak body smelting realm master.
After receiving the request for help from Yuan Cheng, Teng Yunkong quickly rushed over, even using a one-time use special tool to increase his speed. Before arriving, Yuan Cheng was anxious.
He only hoped that the three previous generation elders of the Yuelan Sect could hold on for half a day after forcibly breaking through to the dao realm.
However, after bringing Teng Yunkong here, they discovered that the Yuelan Sect was not in danger at all.
After entering the sect, the atmosphere was extremely relaxed. Yuan Cheng grabbed a disciple and asked. He then learned that Xu Ning had advanced to the dao realm and killed the invading dao realm master after returning to the sect.
Hearing this, Yuan Cheng was dumbfounded.
Even Teng Yunkong from the Source Sect of State Wansheng also felt that this was unbelievable.
A young man who had just advanced to the dao realm had killed a long-standing dao realm master. This was quite ridiculous.
When Teng Yunkong was in State Wansheng, he had interacted with the Jade Night Sect.
So he knew very well that the elders of the Jade Night Sect were all quite strong among body smelting realm masters. In order to confirm this fact, Yuan Cheng brought Teng Yunkong to see Mi Xingye.
After receiving Mi Xingye’s confirmation and learning that Xu Ning had the foundation of six attribute seeds, Teng Yunkong immediately wanted to befriend Xu Ning and quickly asked to see Xu Ning.
With no choice, Mi Xingye could ask his disciple to call Xu Ning over.
“Disciple-Nephew Xu Ning!”
The moment Teng Yunkong saw Xu Ning, he felt his extraordinary and deep foundation.
If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes and sensed it personally, he wouldn’t have believed that Xu Ning had just advanced to the dao realm.
“Senior Teng.”
After Mi Xingye’s introduction, Xu Ning also learned of Teng Yunkong’s identity.
After several hours of taking pills, Xu Ning had recovered about 90% of his energy.
“Disciple-Nephew Xu Ning is indeed talented.”
Teng Yunkong’s words were sincere.
He knew very well that he was not Xu Ning’s opponent at all.
“Senior Wu is too kind.”
Xu Ning said humbly.
“Now that Disciple-Nephew Xu Ning has killed an elder of the Jade Night Sect, this will definitely anger their sect master, Lu Zhanxing.”
Teng Yunkong reminded.
“It’s okay, even if he doesn’t come, I will find him.”
After hearing that, Xu Ning quickly expressed his intention to take the initiative to find trouble with the Jade Night Sect.
When Teng Yunkong, Mi Xingye, Yuan Cheng, and the others heard this, they all looked at each other in disbelief.
Mi Xingye was suddenly worried. He dissuaded Xu Ning. “He is still an astral qi realm master. Although your foundation is deep, you are still a realm lower than him.”
Although he didn’t know the true combat power of the astral qi realm, Lu Zhanxing, the Sect Master of the Jade Night Sect, was a realm higher than Xu Ning. It would definitely be dangerous to deal with him.
“Master, don’t worry, my advancement of six attribute seeds has a solid foundation that ordinary dao realm masters can’t compare to. Moreover, I have other trump cards in my hands. Even if I can’t defeat Lu Zhanxing, I can definitely preserve my life.” Xu Ning explained his advantages to Mi Xingye to let him have a peace of mind.
After hearing this, Mi Xingye chose not to say anything else. He just said with concern, “In that case, please be extra careful.”
Xu Ning’s growth was already beyond his control.
Teng Yunkong no longer knew what to say.
All he could think about was how to build a good relationship with Xu Ning.
Teng Yunkong knew very well that with Xu Ning’s aptitude and strength, even if he went to State Wansheng, he would definitely grow into a big shot.
The Source Sect in State Wansheng was also an unofficial sect at the Endless Sea Abyss. The environment they lived in was extremely cruel.
If Xu Ning could mature in State Wansheng in the future, they would definitely benefit from it.
After a short conversation, Teng Yunkong took the initiative to ask Xu Ning for a private conversation.
When Mi Xingye saw this, he took away the people around and found an excuse to leave. “Disciple-Nephew Xu Ning, although this is the first time we have met, we have a deep relationship.”
Teng Yunkong began to close the distance between the two of them. “You were born in State Feiyun, so you are basically friends with the Source Sect. When you go to State Wansheng, we can take care of each other. I can even say that if you are willing, you can join the Source Sect in State Wansheng.”
Teng Yunkong already knew that Xu Ning’s combat power might be comparable to an astral qi realm master.
In State Wansheng’s Source Sect, the strongest person there was only so-so. But if Xu Ning could join the Source Sect in State Wansheng, even as a guest elder, he would be a huge help to the sect. “I’m afraid that won’t do.”
Xu Ning refused.
When Teng Yunkong heard this, he thought that Xu Ning was concerned about changing his sect identity.
He was about to explain to Xu Ning that after entering State Wansheng, it was normal to change sects. However, Xu Ning’s next words immediately cut off his thoughts.
“I have already accepted Senior Wan Ye’s sect token. When I go to State Wansheng, I will be a member of the Swallow Heron Sect.”
“This…”
Teng Yunkong was stunned.
“I broke through to the dao realm this time because of Senior Wan Ye.”
Xu Ning explained.
‘So the sect token that the Jade Night Sect has been searching for has already fallen into Xu Ning’s hands…!
When Teng Yunkong heard this, he also knew that it was impossible for Xu Ning to be pulled into his sect.
“The Swallow Heron Sect…”
Teng Yunkong pondered for a moment. “In this case, I naturally can’t force it.” “But Xu Ning…”
Teng Yunkong said, “It is not easy to rebuild a sect in State Wansheng. Especially since the Swallow Heron Sect has been disbanded for a hundred years and with the hearts of people dispersed. For you, this will be a huge challenge.”
“Thank you Senior Teng for the reminder, I am ready.”
Xu Ning responded.
“In this case, when you arrive in State Wansheng and wish to rebuild your sect, you can come to us for help at any time.”
Teng Yunkong also showed some kindness.
Xu Ning thanked him again.
“By the way, when are you going to solve the matter of the Jade Night Sect?”.
Teng Yunkong asked.
“Tomorrow.”
Xu Ning guessed that he would be in his best condition tomorrow morning.
“How about the day after tomorrow?”
Teng Yunkong said, “In one day, I will call my peer in the body smelting realm. After that, we can go face the Jade Night Sect together.”
“The Jade Night Sect is a problem in the seventeen states of the Abyss North. Since we are born here, we are naturally responsible for dealing with them.”
Xu Ning weighed his options before finally nodding. “Okay.”
Together with Wan Ye, they could gather four dao realm masters.
Moreover, they had all broken through naturally. Compared to those who did otherwise, their foundation was stronger, and their strength was stronger.
After resting for another day, another dao realm master from the Source Sect called Gu Man came.
Gu Man was a female body smelting realm master. Because the appearance of a dao realm master was permanent, Xu Ning couldn’t infer her true age. After the four of them gathered together, they left for State Chungu.
They had learned from the disciples of the Jade Night Sect that the headquarters of the Jade Night Sect in the seventeen states of the Abyss North was in a county city in State Chungu. In just three days, they crossed the entire seventeen states of the Abyss North and arrived at State Chungu from State Jifeng.
“The Jade Night Sect…”
Xu Ning and the others soon found the specific location of their headquarters.
