A Long Way to Go
The next day, Ning Qi's detailed information was sent to the Elder Cabinet of the Lucifer tribe. After the nine members of the Elder Cabinet, including Martinez, looked through the information, their expressions became somewhat serious. Except for the information before Ning Qi arrived at Yanshan City, everything that happened after that, no matter how big or small, was all laid out here.
"A Half-step Human Demon can defeat a Human Demon at the early stage …"
A member of the Elder Cabinet said in a low voice, "With such strength, does our clan have such a genius?"
"If he cultivates the top demonic art of the tribe, the Laws of Heaven Formless, combined with a fifth stage demonic combat skill and a demonic artifact of at least mid-grade, he might be able to do it."
Another member of the Elder Cabinet said.
"What about after that? He survived Northmoon Chongxu's attack and forcefully took a palm strike from the huge insect, the Lingtu. There's also the Demonic Dragon Ancestor. Not only did he launch a palm strike, but he also chased after him the entire way, yet he still managed to survive. What level of cultivation do you think his body has reached? "
"I'm afraid it's at least on par with the late stage Human Demon!"
Someone concluded.
The rest of the Elders nodded in agreement.
"He has such a physical body before breaking through to the Human Demon Stage. I think he's no ordinary person when he breaks through to the Human Demon Stage. Perhaps the Saintess has taken a fancy to this and wants to recruit him."
"That's right. Plus, he's Pain's personal disciple and Spider Vein's junior brother. He's also a member of our Lucifer Tribe."
Martinez didn't speak a word. He wanted to let the elders express their opinions and see if they should bring up the matter of Ning Qi killing Lilian. In the end, no one cared about this matter. Instead, they were curious about Ning Qi's cultivation and wanted to recruit him. Martinez's position in the Elder Pavilion was the lowest. He was the one who usually ran errands, so it was useless to say anything at this moment.
At this time, the Great Elder of the Elder Cabinet who had been sitting in the middle slowly said, "Let's observe him a little longer. If he's really that talented, maybe we can take him into the Elder Cabinet and train him."
Everyone was shocked when they heard this. They looked at the Great Elder in disbelief. Taking him into the Elder Cabinet meant that he would definitely enter the Elder Cabinet in the future and hold great power! Did the Great Elder really think so highly of him?
Martinez's expression also changed slightly.
"Martinez will handle this matter. He just needs to observe in secret. There's no need to show himself."
The Great Elder said slowly.
"Yes."
Martinez nodded.
…
Ning Qi didn't know that the powerful Elder Cabinet of the Lucifer Tribe had already regarded him as a test target. At this moment, he was preparing to leave the Giant City of Lucifer with the Great Sage of Xuanzhen and the others. This time, he not only saw Feng Jiuxian, but also learned many secrets.
Based on these clues, he guessed that the existence of the system was not the only one. No matter what the purpose of the system was, it seemed to be selecting suitable candidates, and those who were not suitable would be abandoned, such as Feng Jiuxian. If that was the case, Ning Qi had reason to believe that the system would not have only chosen one person. That would be too inefficient, and perhaps there were other people like him in other places, in other worlds.
At the same time, if he was abandoned by the system, he might be deprived of everything, which made the sense of crisis in Ning Qi's heart become more and more urgent.
Excellent, good, poor, these three levels, Ning Qi didn't know which level he belonged to in the eyes of the system, but even if it was excellent, it was also evaluated by the system. Ning Qi was not used to having his life and death in the hands of others, especially when he had reached his current realm. Perhaps, only when he went to the Jiang Family of the Celestial Region, he would be able to find out who was behind the system and what its purpose was.
The Jiang Family of the Celestial Region must be an extraordinary existence. It was impossible to stand in front of them without a certain level of strength.
"Only by improving my strength can I control my own destiny."
Ning Qi muttered to himself, and suddenly a look of mockery flashed in his eyes. His current cultivation realm was under the control of the system. He could only advance if the system allowed him to advance. It was easier said than done to get rid of the shackles of the system.
The road was long, and he would search high and low.
Before leaving, Jian Xilai had told Ning Qi that if he found a way to return to the Central Mainland one day, he should inform her. After all, there had always been a legend in the Central Mainland that when one's cultivation realm reached a certain level, they would be able to soar into the sky and head to the Central Mainland.
Ning Qi had agreed at the time, but he knew deep down that if he didn't have a special way to conceal his demonic Qi, Jian Xilai would also be killed by the Immortal Race if he went to the Immortal Race's mainland. After all, immortals and demons were irreconcilable. During the Great War of the Immortals and Demons, the entire Demon Race's mainland had been destroyed.
Ning Qi was different. He had the Ancient Immortal Fiendgod Body. When he didn't transform into a demon body, there was no demonic Qi on his body at all. There was only the majestic Immortal Spirit Qi.
…
Yan Shan City …
Ning Qi, Yuan Venerate Immortal Slayer, Great Sage Xuan Zhen and his wife returned to Yan Shan City. Spider Pattern remained in Lucifer City. Now that Lilian was dead and Jian Xilai had displayed his strength and talent, the rules of the Saint Lady Hall would probably not be as strict. Spider Pattern could stay with Jian Xilai for at least a decade before returning to Yan Shan City.
"Beixuan, is she …?"
After returning to the Demon King Palace, Ning Qi arranged two small rooms for Yuan Venerate Devil Corpse and Yuan Venerate Immortal Slayer. Great Sage Xuan Zhen waited for the two of them to leave before asking.
"Yeah."
Ning Qi nodded with a smile.
Great Sage Xuan Zhen was amazed and smiled bitterly. "I didn't expect her to become the Saint Lady of the Lucifer Tribe in just a few thousand years."
This was indeed sad. Everyone had come to the Immortal Prison at the same time. Jian Xilai was already in the Earth Demon Stage, while Great Sage Xuan Zhen had not even broken through to the Human Demon Stage, just like Ning Qi.
After chatting for a while, Great Sage Xuan Zhen and Gu Miaoxian bade farewell. They still had demonic crystals with them, so they planned to go to Hidden Cultivator City to cultivate.
"The demonic Qi condensed by the demonic Qi bead in my sea of knowledge is very terrifying. It is enough for me to cultivate for a long time and I can even bring it to a top-notch cultivation training ground. However, the system has only been upgraded to three percent …"
"Martial Nephew, you are back? The Power Demon Body Tempering Pills have been sold out. When will you refine another batch? "
Lulriel walked in with big strides.
"I will refine it now. However, Martial Uncle, you have to be responsible for the spirit herbs …"
Ning Qi smiled. Coincidentally, his demonic crystals were almost used up. He would probably have to cultivate in the mystic realm while waiting for the system to open up. Therefore, he could refine a few batches of Power Demon Body Tempering Pills and sell them for some money.
"No problem with the spirit herbs. There are many in the auction house. I will keep them for you. However, the share …"
