Corpse Sect's Plan
"There must be something fishy about Mu Tuo appearing in front of Ivory City at this critical time!"
After thinking about it, Ning Yue sank his consciousness into the Storage Ring and began to communicate with Xun Jianwen.
"Xun Jianwen, do you know the martial artist in front of the gate?"
Xun Jianwen was the Chief Alchemist of the Alchemist Hall, and Mu Tuo was a fifth-rank alchemist. Logically speaking, Xun Jianwen should know Mu Tuo.
Sure enough, after hearing Ning Yue's words, Xun Jianwen slightly released his perception and 'looked' in the direction of Ivory City.
After a while, Xun Jianwen slowly withdrew his perception and said, "The martial artist on the left is called Mu Tuo, a fifth-rank mid-rank alchemist. His status in the Alchemist Hall is … average.
"The black-robed martial artist on the right has a low cultivation level. I don't know him, but I know he is also from the Corpse Sect."
"What is their purpose for coming here?" Ning Yue asked in a deep voice.
Xun Jianwen shook his head and said, "I don't know."
"That's right, there is a question I have always wanted to ask you."
Suddenly, Ning Yue seemed to have thought of something and asked, "Why do you want to refine the Body Explosion Pill?"
"This …"
If Ning Yue was in the Storage Ring, he would definitely see that Xun Jianwen was very conflicted. Even his brows were furrowed.
In the Corpse Sect, refining the Body Explosion Pill was a top secret, and only a few people knew about it.
The most important thing was that once he told Ning Yue the purpose of refining the Body Explosion Pill, he would have no chance of returning to the Corpse Sect!
Even if he could return, he would be immediately beheaded!
This was because those who betrayed the Corpse Sect never had a good ending.
"Xun Jianwen, I will give you a chance now." Perhaps sensing Xun Jianwen's inner conflict, Ning Yue's eyes turned and he stretched out a finger and said, "One year. If you tell me the entire plan of the Corpse Sect, I can swear to the heavens that I will release you after one year."
"Is that true?" Xun Jianwen's heart thumped when he heard this, and he hurriedly said.
Originally, Xun Jianwen didn't have any hope of escaping from Ning Yue's clutches. Now that Ning Yue gave him a promise, it rekindled his hope.
"You must first swear a Heavenly Dao Oath!" Although Ning Yue's promise did not come easily, Xun Jianwen did not let it get to his head. Instead, he remained very calm.
"No problem."
Ning Yue was straightforward, and he directly forced out a drop of blood essence and swore a Heavenly Dao Oath.
Seeing this, Xun Jianwen let out a long breath.
Once a vow to the Heavenly Dao was made, if one did not fulfill it, one would suffer the bombardment of the Nine Heavenly Tribulations.
With Ning Yue's current strength, it would be impossible for him to withstand the Nine Stage Heavenly Tribulation in another year!
The Nine Stage Heavenly Tribulation was also known as the Creation Realm Tribulation. It was a tribulation that martial artists at the peak of the Yin-Yang Realm had to endure to advance to the Creation Realm.
Let alone one year, even if Ning Yue was given another three years, Xun Jianwen didn't think that Ning Yue could withstand the Nine Stage Heavenly Tribulation.
Therefore, after Ning Yue swore a Heavenly Dao Oath, Xun Jianwen slowly said, "This time, the Corpse Yin Sect has sent out five sub-palaces to break into Ivory City."
"Break into Ivory City?" Ning Yue asked doubtfully, "The Corpse Yin Sect shouldn't be so daring, right?"
Ivory City was one of the most powerful cities in the Da Xia Kingdom, so it must have a City Protecting Formation.
Generally speaking, a city as big as Ivory City must have a powerful City Protecting Formation.
Although the five sub-palaces seemed to have a lot of people, it was impossible for them to send out all of them. At most, they would send out some of their high-end combat forces.
It would be difficult for those high-end combat forces to break into Ivory City in a short period of time.
"Breaking into Ivory City is just a pretense." Shaking his head, Xun Jianwen continued, "This time, the Corpse Yin Sect's real purpose is to break into Ivory Tower!"
"Break into Ivory Tower!"
When he was at the Xiantian Realm, Ning Yue had entered Ivory Tower and reached the tenth floor.
With the strength of the old man in gray on the tenth floor, it would not be easy to break into Ivory Tower.
Moreover, the entrance to Ivory Tower was only open to those on the Innate Realm Battle List … That's right!
Suddenly, Ning Yue said in surprise, "You didn't refine the Body Explosion Pill to open the entrance to Ivory Tower, did you?"
Nodding his head, Xun Jianwen said, "Yes, the entrance to Ivory Tower has a special restriction. As long as a martial artist whose cultivation is above the Xiantian Realm tries to enter, he will definitely be kicked out."
"I know that." Ning Yue said.
"But there is one thing you don't know."
Xun Jianwen said, "Yin-Yang Realm martial artists don't dare to casually enter Ivory Tower."
In order to break into Ivory Tower, the Corpse Yin Sect had done their homework.
Even a week ago, they sent an early Yin-Yang Realm martial artist to force his way into Ivory Tower. As a result, he was hit by a cold light from inside Ivory Tower and died a few days later.
Therefore, the Corpse Yin Sect decided to refine the Body Explosion Pill in order to completely blow up the entrance to Ivory Tower!
Ning Yue frowned and asked, "Why does the Corpse Yin Sect want to break into Ivory Tower?"
"There is a treasure in Ivory Tower that can slow down the passage of time!" Since he decided to tell Ning Yue, Xun Jianwen told Ning Yue everything he knew about the Corpse Yin Sect's plan.
"Hiss!"
After hearing the entire plan of the Corpse Yin Sect, Ning Yue couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air.
If there was one word to describe it, it would be 'spirit!' If there was one word to describe it, it would be 'courage!'
In order to break into Ivory Tower and obtain the illusory treasure that could slow down the passage of time, the Corpse Yin Sect had racked their brains to play a very big game of chess.
However, the most important part of the game, the Body Explosion Pill, had been destroyed by Ning Yue.
"Without the Body Explosion Pill, the Corpse Yin Sect's plan will be delayed for at least a week."
Ning Yue estimated that the Corpse Yin Sect's plan would be delayed for at least a week. After all, it would be very difficult for them to refine a second Body Explosion Pill in a short period of time.
"Very good, Xun Jianwen, I hope you're not lying."
Ning Yue didn't choose to completely believe Xun Jianwen's words. Instead, his figure flashed and he flew toward Ivory City.
Whoosh!
When he entered Ivory City, Ning Yue deliberately stopped beside Mu Tuo for a second before he flew toward Ivory City at full speed.
"Why does this person look so familiar?"
Mu Tuo looked back at Ning Yue's back and frowned.
"After him!"
Soon, Mu Tuo reacted. He immediately rose from the ground and chased after Ning Yue.
"Mu Tuo? The Temple Master told us to stay here … "Seeing Mu Tuo's actions, the black-robed man frowned.
However, before he could finish speaking, Mu Tuo's voice sounded in his mind.
"Black Sand King, the martial artist that just passed by is most likely Ning Yue! Quickly chase after him! "Mu Tuo's tone was very anxious, and even a little excited.
After Master Leng was killed, Mu Tuo investigated the surroundings for a long time and made a major discovery.
All the signs indicated that the True Martial Realm martial artist that entered the cave was most likely Ning Yue!
Back in Bright King City, Mu Tuo exchanged the upper half of the soul nourishment method from Ning Yue, and the effect was very good.
