However, after hearing Nian Bing's words, Theron understood the importance of the beauty in his hands to this powerful magus. He saw a glimmer of hope, and loosened his grip on Lan Chen's throat. He said coldly, "Girl, use your wings to take me away. Do you hear me? Hurry up. Kid, if you dare to chase after me, I'll take her down with me. "
Nian Bing couldn't help but feel a little flustered. If Lan Chen was taken away by Theron, the consequences would be unimaginable. However, if she didn't agree, Theron would probably kill her Chen Chen immediately. Just as Nian Bing was hesitating, he suddenly saw the silver dot between Lan Chen's eyebrows. Hope reignited in his heart, and he immediately thought of an idea. "Alright, Theron, I'll let Chen Chen take you away. However, you have to promise me that you won't hurt her. Otherwise, I won't let you go even if I have to chase you all the way to the Continent of Gods." Nian Bing's voice was stern, and she glared at Theron as if she wanted to eat him alive. Theron's heart relaxed a lot when he saw her like this. Nian Bing's fierce appearance clearly told him that he had made the right choice.
Unfortunately, Theron was behind Lan Chen. He couldn't see the silver dot between Lan Chen's eyebrows, which represented the Heaven's Eye Acupoint. It dyed Lan Chen's eyes silver as well. The wings on Lan Chen's back unfolded and flapped as he flew towards the west. Just when Theron thought that he had succeeded and relaxed a little, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his brain, as if his brain was being pricked by a needle. He loosened his grip on Lan Chen's neck and shoulder. Lan Chen's body flickered like a phantom. In the blink of an eye, he was already more than ten feet away. Seeing Theron's body falling down, countless icicles shot out.
Nian Bing's movements were faster than Lan Chen's. The moment her body separated from Theron's, several corrosive black shadows shot out like lightning. Theron's body instantly disintegrated in midair, and his limbs emitted a layer of dark green light. It melted quickly with a popping sound, and when the icicle arrived, it was already melting. When the icicles reached him, they only hit a pair of green liquid. The thirteenth level Theron was finally destroyed.
Nian Bing's body flashed. He hugged her tightly. As if he was afraid that she would disappear immediately.
Lan Chen could clearly feel Nian Bing's intense heartbeat. She hugged him back. Although it was just a short moment, it felt like a century to them..... As it turned out, when Nian Bing saw the Heaven's Eye Acupoint between Lan Chen's eyebrows, she immediately thought of a mental attack. Under normal circumstances, Lan Chen's Heaven's Eye Acupoint, a mental attack wouldn't cause any damage to Theron. Instead, the one who would be injured would be Lan Chen. However, the situation just now was different. After receiving the full force attacks from Nian Bing, Halogen, and Lan Chen, Theron was already extremely weak. He barely managed to threaten Nian Bing and Lan Chen by relying on his will to survive. Lan Chen's Heaven's Eye Acupoint naturally couldn't achieve a physical mental attack, but mental attacks were still possible. Nian Bing threatened Theron sternly. Through his soul transmission, he had taught Lan Chen how to use his mental attack. That was how he had managed to break free from Theron's control in one fell swoop, causing him to perish under Nian Bing's rank 9 dark corrosive spell.
Nian Bing gently stroked Lan Chen's dark green hair, comforting him, "Good boy, it's all right now. Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. It's all my fault. I didn't stop him and almost harmed you. "
Lan Chen laughed, "It's not me who's afraid, it's you who's afraid. This guy is really powerful. He could still counterattack after receiving two of my forbidden spells. No wonder you're so afraid of the gods. "
Nian Bing sighed softly and said, "This Theron is only a second-rate godly being. There are others who are stronger than him. Ah! Let's go back and take a look. He dodged Halogen's attack just now and landed on the ground. I don't know how he is now. " As he spoke, he waved his hand, and the Fire Shadow Puppet Soul of the Zheng Yang Saber floated out. The fire elements melted the ice outside the Fire Cloud Armor, and the Fire Shadow Puppet transformed into Theron's size. After putting on the Fire Cloud Armor, Nian Bing brought Lan Chen back to Oscar's back and flew back in the direction they came from. At the same time, in order to not be naked when the scales on his body disappeared, he didn't merge with Oscar's body. Instead, he removed the protection of the scales and put on a new set of clothes. Only then did he let Oscar carry him and Bing Yun back.
When Nian Bing and Lan Chen returned to the place where he and Halogen fought with Theron, Feng Nu, Yu Ruyan, and Long Ling had already rushed over. Even Mu Jing had arrived with her experts. Halogen was sitting on the ground, gasping for breath. Except for Halogen, everyone else was stunned by what happened on the ground. What Nian Bing saw was a huge canyon. Through her Heaven's Eye Acupoint, she could tell that the canyon was about 15 feet wide and 300 feet deep. It stretched for thousands of feet. There was no dust, and the pitch-black canyon was like a huge mouth that swallowed everything in its path.
The Divinity Slayer — Halogen's Divinity Slayer was actually so powerful. Mu Jing was the most shocked because she was very familiar with the geography of this place. On the surface, it looked like a fertile plain. However, below 100 feet underground, it was made up of all kinds of hard and complicated rocks. Halogen had already returned to his original dwarf appearance. Mu Jing didn't recognize him, but this unbelievable scene shocked her deeply. Was this something that could be done by human strength? She felt lucky. If it wasn't for Nian Bing's suggestion, this huge canyon would have appeared in the capital of the Lang Mu Empire, Maplewood City. It would have been more than just panic. However, even such a powerful attack hadn't been able to destroy Theron. The terrifying power of the gods was deeply imprinted in Mu Jing's mind. She couldn't help but feel a deep sense of lingering fear for her past actions.
Nian Bing appeared on Oscar's back. Mu Jing and her subordinates were also greatly shocked. What was that? A huge gray dragon? That definitely wasn't something that an ordinary earth dragon could compare to. That was a real dragon! Everyone's jaws dropped as they watched Nian Bing and Lan Chen descend on the huge dragon like gods. After all, the scene before their eyes was far too shocking.
With a flicker of gray light, Oscar's soul returned to Nian Bing's body, while Nian Bing landed beside Halogen. A gentle white light enveloped Halogen's body, healing his wounds.
What a powerful Divinity Slayer! Nian Bing was also shocked when she saw the canyon in front of her. She knew that if the Divinity Slayer had struck Theron with his West Meridian Acupoint activated, it would have been hard to say whether he would have been able to keep his life, let alone escape. This was the first time Nian Bing had seen Halogen's sudden burst of tyrannical power. He could faintly sense that this attack had already surpassed the thirteenth step.
Under the effect of Nian Bing's light magic, the Divinity Slayer's body was completely destroyed. Si Lun raised his mouth and stood up shakily. His dwarf divine armor shook slightly, shaking off the dust on his body. He asked, "What happened to that guy?"
Nian Bing said, "He's already been killed. I didn't think that a thirteenth step god would be able to cause us so much trouble. This Theron is much stronger than I imagined. If he hadn't been so determined to escape, we would have been able to kill him. If he hadn't escaped, he would have been heavily injured by us. Even if we had killed him, we would have been seriously injured. " His judgement was correct. At their level, the battle intent in one's heart could play a decisive role in a battle. Theron had been suppressed by Nian Bing's mental pressure from the moment he appeared. He had overestimated Nian Bing's strength. Due to the fear in his heart, he hadn't been able to display his full strength. Even so, he had still caused so much trouble for Nian Bing and Halogen. In the end, he had almost escaped by using Lan Chen as a hostage. After this battle, Nian Bing couldn't help but reevaluate the strength of gods.
Theron had already been eliminated, and Halogen was safe. Nian Bing couldn't help but feel relieved. Her body swayed slightly. Lan Chen hurriedly supported her. Nian Bing shook her head, "Don't worry, I'm fine. I just consumed a bit of energy. Jing 'er, I have already done what I promised you. When you go back, you have to watch your subordinates' mouths. Don't leak out the fact that a god once came to your Lang Mu Empire and attract other gods. "
Mu Jing walked a few steps to Nian Bing and asked with concern, "Brother, are you alright? I didn't expect this Theron to be so powerful. Go back and rest for a while. "
Nian Bing nodded and said, "Big Brother Halogen, this Fire Cloud Armor belonged to your race. Now, it has returned to its rightful owner." The Fire Shadow Puppet came to Halogen. With a flash of light, it disappeared into Nian Bing's body. The slightly damaged Fire Cloud Armor appeared in front of Halogen. Halogen stroked the scalding armor. His eyes were a little moist. He recalled the story of his ancestors creating twelve divine artifacts. Now that he had gotten this armor back, it proved that the legend was true. He took a deep look at Nian Bing. There was no need for thanks between brothers. With a wave of his hand, the black crystal on the chest of the Dwarf Divine Armor lit up and kept the Fire Cloud Armor.
Everyone returned to the campsite. At this moment, the members of the Lang Mu Empire's diplomatic mission looked at Nian Bing and Halogen differently. There was fear and respect.
Although they killed Theron, Nian Bing and Halogen were exhausted. Once they returned to the campsite, Feng Nu and the others helped them into the carriage and began to cultivate to recover. Feng Nu and the others stood guard outside the carriage for them. Lan Chen briefly explained the process of killing Theron. Yu Ruyan, Feng Nu and the others were shocked. Although Nian Bing had mentioned the Gods to Yu Ruyan, this time she truly understood the power of the Gods. At the same time, she also understood why Nian Bing wanted to maintain peace in the Four Nations Conference.
Sitting cross-legged in the carriage, Nian Bing's light ball, which was formed by magic power, was rotating rapidly. It absorbed all kinds of magic elements in the air to replenish itself. The Life Ball and Death Ball in his body were the purest Xiantian Qi. Although he couldn't use the Li Zhong Acupoint, the speed of condensing magic elements was much faster than ordinary magicians. The magic power that he lost was quickly replenished. At the same time, the golden ball formed by the fusion of his Tian Yan Acupoint and Huang Ji Acupoint consumed his spiritual power very quickly. However, the recovery speed was also very fast. The feeling of weakness disappeared two hours after he started cultivating.
Although Nian Bing had been cultivating every day for the past few days, he obviously didn't spend as much time as he did on the Godly Continent because there were too many things to do. However, he realized that the Xiantian Qi on the Yangon Continent was much more abundant than on the Godly Continent. It was also much gentler. After absorbing it into his body, he only needed to go through a simple filtering process. After his spiritual power gradually recovered, Nian Bing was surprised to find that the Xiantian Qi in his body was a bit strange. Ever since he had the Death Ball and the Life Ball, whenever he absorbed Xiantian Qi, it would condense around the Life Ball and form a faint white halo. It was like the Life Ball was protecting the Death Ball. Because Nian Bing had the Life Ball, it was very easy for him to communicate with the magic elements in the outside world. So these days, Nian Bing didn't purposely try to cultivate Xiantian Qi. At this time, the Xiantian Qi in his body was gradually increasing. It actually left the Life Ball's range and formed a small white whirlpool. It was spinning rapidly three inches below the Life Ball. Nian Bing could clearly feel that after this white whirlpool appeared, the top of his head and tailbone became very cool. The Xiantian Qi that had almost solidified and compressed Xiantian Qi entered his body from these two places. His cultivation speed was much faster than usual. Just when he didn't understand what was going on, the white whirlpool began to move downward, and the whirlpool itself was spinning faster and faster. Nian Bing didn't even need to try to control it. The Xiantian Qi in his body was already abnormally abundant.
The green Life Ball emitted a layer of life energy that fused with the white whirlpool. The green light turned into a green dot and shot directly into the center of the whirlpool. After it entered, the white whirlpool stopped for a moment. Then, its spinning speed suddenly increased by three times, and the top of his head and tailbone became even colder. At this moment, Nian Bing suddenly understood. He thought back to the time when he absorbed the essence of the stars and moon. The pure Xiantian Qi coming from the top of his head and tailbone should be the essence of heaven and earth! Looking at the direction the whirlpool was going, he was overjoyed. He immediately opened up his body and threw away all his worries, allowing his body to absorb the Xiantian Qi better. Three inches below his belly button was the destination of the whirlpool, and that was also the location of the West Meridian Point.
Actually, the Death Ball and Life Ball that Nian Bing absorbed on the Godly continent were the most powerful energy of heaven and earth. They were also the two most extreme types of energy. Either one of them was far stronger than the ultimate West Meridian Point.
However, because these two types of energy were too powerful, Nian Bing couldn't really use them at all. Under the combined efforts of Kao and Tian Xiang, these two extremely concentrated energy balls could be said to be the seeds that they planted in Nian Bing's body. Life and Death were in a delicate state of balance in Nian Bing's body. They wouldn't be used by Nian Bing, nor would they harm his body. The existence of these two energy balls also allowed Nian Bing to resonate with the pure Xiantian Qi of heaven and earth. After waking up on the Godly continent, he cultivated for another half a year. This half a year wasn't wasted. Not only did his magic power increase, but his Xiantian Qi also underwent a qualitative change. If it wasn't for the fact that Nian Bing deliberately didn't cultivate his Xiantian Qi, his West Meridian Point would've been opened long ago. Today, when Theron activated his West Meridian Point, an invisible wave of Xiantian Qi was produced. This wave of Xiantian Qi infected Nian Bing's body. To be more precise, it infected the Xiantian Qi in his body. After he killed Theron, his Xiantian Qi miraculously connected with the essence of heaven and earth under the influence of this wave of Xiantian Qi, pushing him to another level.
When the strange whirlpool reached Nian Bing's abdomen, the tip of the whirlpool stopped three inches below his navel. Nian Bing's body trembled violently. Right at the tip of the whirlpool, he clearly felt like something had broken. Immediately after, the white whirlpool began to violently compress. His lower abdomen was filled with a swelling pain, and his body felt like it was about to explode. After going through so many cycles of pain, this kind of pain was nothing to Nian Bing. He watched as the white stream of Xiantian Qi continued to condense in his lower abdomen. At this moment, he suddenly felt his mind clear up. A golden light floated down from the Sky Eye and Ultimate Emperor Aperture, and directly enveloped the milky white Xiantian Qi that was being compressed. The swelling pain disappeared, and Nian Bing watched as the milky white light quickly shrunk under the light of the Jindan. After a while, it condensed into a white ring of light three inches below his navel, and in the middle of the ring of light was black. Like a bottomless abyss, the Xiantian Qi he had absorbed surged into the black hole and disappeared. Nian Bing realized that the aura around his body was completely different. He could feel every trace of Xiantian Qi in the air, and these Xiantian Qi seemed to be revolving around the West Meridian Acupoint that he had just opened. Under the influence of these Xiantian Qi, the seven magic elements were neatly distributed around his body, as if they were waiting for his call. West Meridian Acupoint, it was indeed the West Meridian Acupoint that could attract Xiantian Qi!
Although he couldn't explain why, Nian Bing could feel that his West Meridian Acupoint wasn't in the early stage, as it should have been when he had just opened it. Instead, it had directly entered the middle stage. Nian Bing could clearly see the energy fluctuations when Theron used his West Meridian Acupoint to control the Xiantian Qi around him. He realized that his West Meridian Acupoint's ability to control the condensation, contraction, and release of Xiantian Qi wasn't any worse than Theron's. Reaching the middle stage right after opening one acupoint meant that he could save a lot of time in the future. But why? Ah! That's right. It was the fusion of his Sky Eye and Ultimate Emperor Aperture. That must be it. Under the golden light, the West Meridian Acupoint changed in an instant. He didn't even have to go through the painful process. The Tian Yan Acupoint and the Huang Ji Acupoint must have changed during the process of fusion. If he could reach the middle stage of every acupoint he opened in the future, although he couldn't use the power of the Tian Yan Acupoint, it would still be very beneficial!
Thinking of this, Nian Bing felt the Xiantian Qi in his chest surging. He couldn't help but let out a long roar. The sound waves rolled up, and all the meridians in his body seemed to become active. Even his blood was boiling.
The long roar lasted for the time it took to eat a meal before stopping. When Nian Bing opened his eyes, he was surprised to find that he was sitting on the ground. The luxurious carriage was now in pieces. Was it Halogen, Yu Ruyan, or Mu Jing and her subordinates? At this moment, they were all standing in the distance, looking at him as if he were a monster. Nian Bing lowered his head and heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, his clothes were still there. Otherwise, he would have made a fool of himself. With a thought, he stood up. Feeling the neatly arranged magic elements in the air and the abundant Xiantian Qi, he knew that his strength had increased again.
"Don't look at me like that, okay? I'm not a monster. " Nian Bing couldn't help but find it funny when he saw that everyone was still staring at him. As he spoke, he moved his feet and arrived in front of everyone. His strong body, powerful magic, and Spiritual Power that even he didn't know what level he was at had molded him into a true powerhouse.
Halogen muttered, "You still say you're not a monster. Fortunately, I discovered it early. Otherwise, I'm afraid I would have disintegrated like that carriage."
Nian Bing couldn't help but laugh, "I'm still not that strong. Brother, do you think I don't know how strong your body is?" With his West Meridian opened, he was in a good mood. Everything around him seemed to have become more beautiful than before. At this moment, he discovered that the end of the canyon Halogen had created last night had extended all the way to the area where the diplomatic mission was stationed. Fortunately, its power was much weaker now.
Mu Jing walked up to Nian Bing, "Brother, are you really not going to go to Maplewood City with me?"
Nian Bing nodded, "I've already done what I promised you. Jing 'er, you have to take care of yourself. Remember my promise to you. "
Mu Jing sighed softly, "It's fine if you don't go. Once we're in Maplewood City, everything will be out of my control. Brother, you and sisters-in-law take care of yourselves. I wish you all a safe journey. " Although her heart was surging with emotions, she didn't reveal too much. Was her relationship with Nian Bing really just that of a sibling? Only she knew this. However, no matter what she thought, she didn't want to make things difficult for Nian Bing. In her heart, Nian Bing's position was already incomparable. What could be more important than a person who was truly good to her? Even if he only saw her as a sister.
Mu Jing left with her diplomatic group. The sad look in her eyes before she left couldn't be hidden from Nian Bing's eyes. Naturally, it couldn't be hidden from Feng Nu and the others. However, Feng Nu and Yu Ruyan were clearly in low spirits. No one said anything, only watching Mu Jing's convoy leave in Silence.
"Mother, are you worried?" Nian Bing walked to Yu Ruyan's side and stood still. Yu Ruyan sighed softly, "Although Feng Nu and I have never thought of leaving the Feng people, will our actions be approved by our clansmen? Will they still accept us? "
"Why not? Mother. There's something I've always wanted to tell you. Perhaps, it's because you're in the situation that you don't understand. "
Yu Ruyan stared blankly, "What's the matter? Tell me. "
Nian Bing smiled slightly, held Feng Nu's hand, and said, "Mother. Have you ever thought about it, if your clansmen really don't recognize you, or hate you, then can you still reunite with your own daughter? Feng Nu, let me ask you, how do the Feng people's elders treat you? How much do they value you? "
Feng Nu said, "The elders treat me very well. Every elder in the clan is very good to me. They unreservedly taught me the Feng people's unique skills. Moreover. They even recognized me as the Phoenix of Hope in the clan competition. I haven't forgotten the elders' kindness in raising me. This is also the reason why I didn't dare to accept your feelings, and the reason why I have to go back now. "
Nian Bing nodded, and said, "That's enough. Mother, don't you understand? If the elders hadn't forgiven you, I'm afraid Feng Nu would have died long ago. They treat Feng Nu so well, which proves that these elders have never forgotten you. They also didn't treat Feng Nu badly because she is your daughter with a human. The Phoenix of Hope should have a very high status in the Feng people. Feng Nu can become the Phoenix of Hope, which proves that the Feng people's elders have already forgiven you. Everything they did for Feng Nu proves that they are kind. If you and Feng Nu can return in a time of danger, they will only be happy and selfish. Why would they make things difficult for you? Even if they really expelled you from the Feng people, in order to help your clansmen, wouldn't you secretly take action? Therefore, you don't have to worry about anything now. I believe that those elders are not unreasonable people. "
After listening to Nian Bing's words. Yu Ruyan's originally somewhat dim eyes suddenly brightened. That's right! If the elders hadn't forgiven her, how could they let her daughter become the Phoenix of Hope?
Nian Bing glanced at Lan Chen, who was not far away, and said, "The one who needs to worry now is Chenchen. Originally, I believed that you and Feng Nu's strength should be enough to deal with everything. However, I heard from Feng Nu that Chenchen's Ice Phoenix will have a great impact on the Feng people's ceremony this time. Therefore, I must go with you. "
Lan Chen was also the main person that Yu Ruyan was worried about. Looking at Nian Bing's determined gaze, Yu Ruyan finally revealed a trace of a smile, "Nian Bing, it seems that my daughters were right to choose first."
Nian Bing smiled and said, "Of course, I will always protect them. Alright, Mother, we should also be on our way. The earlier we arrive at the Feng people, the more time we have to prepare. "
Without the burden of the diplomatic mission, everyone resumed their journey. Nian Bing relied on wind magic to carry Halogen, and Feng Nu supported Long Ling. The group of six headed towards the northwest of the Langmu Empire.
Flying was naturally much faster than hurrying. In a short two days, they were already close to their destination. In the distance, a large expanse of dense forest appeared below them. Even the air was clearly much fresher. Nian Bing's group of six could be said to be the strongest group in the Yangon Continent. Lan Chen who was close to becoming a Divine Master, Ice Magus Long Ling, Yu Ruyan and Feng Nu who were infinitely close to becoming a Divine Master, Dwarf Warrior Halogen who was close to becoming a Divine Master, and Ice Fire Magus Nian Bing who was close to becoming a Divine Master. What a powerful group this was! On the way, Nian Bing joked that if everyone formed an adventuring group, perhaps all the mercenary groups in the Yangon Continent would lose their jobs.
Just as they were about to reach the edge of the Firewood Forest, Yu Ruyan said, "Let's go down."
Long Ling strangely asked, "Auntie, why don't we fly directly to the Feng people's habitat? This forest has not been cultivated, I'm afraid it will delay us. "
Yu Ruyan gently smiled and said, "This is out of respect for our people. In our Phoenixes, as long as a core member has the Royal Feathers, they can use their wings to fly. However, no one has ever flown in the sky above our forest. That will be seen as an act of blasphemy against our ancestors. "
Everyone landed on the ground at the edge of the Firewood Forest. Yu Ruyan said, "Nian Bing, if my clansmen make things difficult for you after you meet them, I hope you can endure as much as possible. Just consider it as doing this for Feng Nu and Chenchen, okay?" She had already seen how powerful Nian Bing was. If the Feng people's clansmen provoked him, she was afraid she wouldn't be able to stop him. That was why she gave Nian Bing a heads-up in advance.
Nian Bing faintly smiled and said, "Mom, don't worry. For your sake, I won't argue with the Feng people. I am no longer that little child from back then. " Looking at Yu Ruyan's beautiful face that never seemed to age, he couldn't help but recall the first time he met her and Lan Chen. His heart was filled with warmth.
With the help of Nian Bing's Longevity Blade, Halogen turned back into an ordinary human. Hearing this, he said, "My clan's ancient records have recorded that the Feng people's ancestor, the Phoenix, should have appeared on the Lost Continent. It also died during the Great War of the Gods. The Feng people are a peace-loving clan, but at the same time, they are also a very xenophobic clan. Nian Bing, I'm afraid our journey won't be smooth. "
Nian Bing faintly smiled and said, "I can still not retaliate when hit or scolded. Big brother, just endure with me."
Halogen nodded and said, "That's the only way. Then we can start our journey. " After Halogen followed Nian Bing to the Yangon Continent, although he came into contact with many humans, he never spoke to them. Even Lan Chen and the others were no exception. If Nian Bing didn't speak, he would always silently follow beside Nian Bing. If it wasn't for his earth-shattering attack that day, perhaps Yu Ruyan and the others wouldn't be able to see through his true identity. After knowing that Halogen was a Dwarf and seeing his strength, Yu Ruyan understood that this Dwarf's age was far above hers. She was very respectful towards him throughout the journey.
