The third gate of the Nine Inner Hidden Gates
After opening the third of the Nine Inner Hidden Gates, it immediately became a third-rank demon race battle skill. In this state, Ning Qi felt that the strength of the Nine Yang Body Tempering Fruit was no longer able to cause his body to explode. It took him over five years to completely absorb the remaining strength of the Nine Yang Body Tempering Fruit.
"The state of the second gate can already be maintained for more than 24 hours. The third gate can also be maintained for half an hour …"
Ning Qi was quite satisfied. Soon after, he plucked another Nine Yang Body Tempering Fruit and threw it into his mouth. But unfortunately, perhaps because Ning Qi's cultivation was not high enough, the effect of this Nine Yang Body Tempering Fruit was not very strong. It only allowed Ning Qi to open the third gate of the Nine Inner Hidden Gates for around three hours!
A few years later, Ning Qi continued to eat the third Nine Yang Body Tempering Fruit.
After a few more years, Ning Qi ate the fourth Nine Yang Body Tempering Fruit. The effects were getting weaker and weaker. Of the nine Nine Yang Body Tempering Fruits, there were only five left. Ning Qi did not plan to use them. After all, logically speaking, they belonged to the Spider Mark. Moreover, according to the current effects of the Nine Yang Body Tempering Fruit, even if he ate all five of them, the effect would not be as good as the first one.
"What a pity. If I had picked the Nine Yang Body Tempering Fruit when it was fully ripe, I wouldn't have lost so much of its medicinal efficacy. Perhaps I would have been able to open the fourth gate of the Nine Inner Hidden Gates by now."
Ning Qi sighed.
Then, he slowly closed his eyes and continued to cultivate. The Demonic Dragon Ancestor would definitely be guarding outside unwillingly. Ning Qi did not plan to walk into a trap so early, so they would just compete in endurance.
Time flew by. Fifty years passed just like that. It had been a long time since Ning Qi had been able to cultivate in such a peaceful manner.
He slowly opened his eyes and spat out an arrow of air that condensed and did not dissipate.
With a thought, Ning Qi left the top training ground in the next moment and reappeared in the Abyss Demon Canyon.
Looking at the ruined Abyss Demon Canyon in front of him, the corners of Ning Qi's mouth rose slightly. From this scene, one could imagine how angry the Demonic Dragon Ancestor had been. He had turned the vast Abyss Demon Canyon into ruins. Ning Qi did not stay here for long. He did not know if the Demonic Dragon Ancestor would return. After finding the direction of Yan Mountain City, Ning Qi soared into the sky.
Not long after Ning Qi left, a few figures flew over from another direction and stood in the air above the Abyss Devil Canyon.
"Martial Nephew Spider Mark, are you sure that Martial Nephew Bei Xuan told you to leave first, and that he had a way to escape the control of that old fellow Dragon Demon?"
Rulriere's expression was incomparably solemn. He, Lan Ruo, and Spider Wen had been searching for Ning Qi's traces for a long time, but there was no news at all. The spies of the Demon King's Mansion had basically all been sent out. Every time there was news of Ning Qi's appearance, they would immediately rush over, but it was just a blunder.
"Martial Uncle, you don't trust me?"
Spiderweb's eyes gradually turned cold.
"It's not that I don't trust you … Sigh …"
Rulier shook his head. He knew Spider Vein's temperament. If it had been Wan Li and Zhu Feng, he would have been suspicious long ago.
"Lord Lulliere, Young Master Spider Mark, don't you think this place is very strange? The Demonic Dragon Patriarch is at the Perfected Stage of the Human Demon Realm. If he were to fight with the Young Master of the Northern Mystic Sect, he wouldn't have turned the entire Abyss Demon Canyon into such a state, right? "
Lan Ruo suddenly said.
From the beginning, he felt that this place was very strange. This was not the first time the three of them had returned to the Abyss Demon Canyon. Today, a light seemed to flash in Lan Ruo's mind, and he raised this suspicion.
"Hmm? Not bad, it's a little strange. "
Lulliere reacted.
Spider Vein's eyes narrowed slightly, and he sized up the Abyss Demon Canyon. Then, his lips curled into a faint smile. "These marks were probably made by the Demonic Dragon Patriarch alone."
"Alone?"
"In other words, the Young Master of the Northern Mystic Sect might have really escaped, and the Demonic Dragon Patriarch turned the Abyss Demon Canyon into such a state in order to vent his anger?"
Lan Ruo suddenly said.
"Lan Ruo, your brain is very good today. It seems that you are indeed not stupid."
Lulliere praised.
"I'm not stupid to begin with."
Lan Ruo curled his lips.
"Since Junior Brother has already escaped, let's return to Yanshan City and wait for him. If he hasn't been caught by the Demonic Dragon Patriarch, I think he will return to Yanshan City immediately."
Spider Vein said.
"Hmm, that makes sense."
Lulliere nodded in agreement.
… …
When they were about to reach Yanshan City, Ning Qi landed on the ground. There was no need to fly. If the Demonic Dragon Patriarch was unwilling to give up and waited here, it would be too big of a target. Walking would be a good way to reduce the risk. As long as they entered Yanshan City, no matter how bold the Demonic Dragon Patriarch was, he would not dare to chase after them.
Before they had traveled five hundred kilometers, Ning Qi suddenly noticed some movement in front of him.
"Yang Gou, you and Kong Yan block that guy. We'll attack his life acupuncture point!"
"Roar!"
"Not good, this guy's bloodline is special. We are not his match. Let's escape first!"
Very soon, several figures flew in Ning Qi's direction. Ning Qi glanced over and discovered that they were all familiar people. They were Yang Gou, Yang Yingwei, Dao En, Kong Yan, Ping Tian, Northmoon Lengqiu, and over a dozen young demons. They seemed to be descendants of the seven clans as well, and right now, they all showed a sliver of fright. Behind them was a humanoid demon over thirty meters tall. It chased after them madly. Aside from a mouth, the demon's entire face was filled with blood-red eyes. It was extremely horrifying!
The demon's aura seemed to be no different from an early demon. As it ran, a powerful blood qi radiated from its body.
It suddenly let out a roar and swung its hand, sweeping towards the last figure. Northmoon Lengqiu only felt her blood surge, and she spat out a mouthful of blood. A few bone-deep wounds had appeared on her back. She subconsciously looked towards Yang Gou, and a sliver of fear appeared on her face.
Yang Gou saw this. A sliver of joy flashed through Northmoon Lengqiu's eyes, but just when she thought Yang Gou would come to save her, she discovered that Yang Gou had directly turned around and fled a little faster. A sliver of despair immediately appeared in Northmoon Lengqiu's eyes.
"Big brother, Lengqiu's been caught!"
Yang Yingwei discovered that Northmoon Lengqiu was alone and called out to Yang Gou in a hurry.
"Anyone who stays behind right now will die for sure!"
Yang Gou said coldly.
When Dao En and the others heard that, they hesitated for a while. In the end, they still felt that staying alive was more important, so they had no intentions of staying behind. However, in the next moment, they saw a figure fly over from the other side, brushing past them.
How familiar. That guy is …
Everyone's expressions suddenly changed, and they immediately stopped. They looked at the figure with bewildered expressions.
Roar!
The demon grabbed Northmoon Lengqiu and was about to swallow her whole. Just as Northmoon Lengqiu sank into endless despair, the demon's head suddenly fell to the side.
Afterwards, Northmoon Lengqiu felt someone grab her arm. Afterwards, she broke free from the demon's grasp and landed on the ground.
"You're fine, right?"
Ning Qi smiled indifferently.
"I- it's you …"
Northmoon Lengqiu looked at Ning Qi in surprise and joy.
