In the blink of an eye, another year passed.
Ning Qi had completely deviated from the direction of the Immemorial Star Pavilion. If he continued in this direction, he would arrive at a famous forbidden area in the Shenluo Realm.
"Burial Ruins"
According to the rumors, this place used to be an extremely prosperous sect in the Shenluo Realm a long time ago. When this sect was at its peak, even the Thearchs had to follow the rules and didn't dare to overstep their boundaries.
However, all the cultivators of the sect died overnight. No one knew what had happened. Some people went in to investigate, but they died one after another and couldn't come out.
This matter attracted the attention of the Thearchs. Several Thearchs entered together to find out the truth. In the end, all the Thearchs couldn't come out of the Burial Ruins.
From then on, this place became a forbidden area. Let alone cultivators, even Star Beasts that weren't as intelligent as ordinary people didn't dare to step into it!
"This guy wants to go to the Burial Ruins?"
Nangong Yuanqing couldn't believe it.
However, in the next moment, a smile suddenly appeared on his face, and a look of realization appeared in his eyes.
He finally figured it out.
Then, he took a step forward and crossed thousands of kilometers in an instant, appearing directly in front of Ning Qi.
"Patriarch Nangong?"
Ning Qi looked at Nangong Yuanqing in "astonishment".
"Are you surprised?"
Nangong Yuanqing looked at Ning Qi with a faint smile. "You already knew of my existence and wanted to use the Burial Ruins to scare me away. Why do you have to act like this?"
"Hehe, Patriarch Nangong, why did you follow me all the way here?"
Ning Qi smiled, and the astonishment on his face disappeared.
"Of course I'm here to kill you. In the fifth region, you dared to destroy my son's body because you had Lord Zhen Ling as your backer and Jiu Kun and the others would help you. However, do you think anyone would help you in the outside world?"
Nangong Yuanqing smiled.
"No one will help me," Ning Qi said honestly.
"It's good that you know. "It's good that you know. When you tried to kill Zhu Hui, you should have known that my Nangong Family wouldn't let you off. I've already heard that you've shone brilliantly in the headquarters, and even the Heavenly Wolf Councilman praised you. That's all because you've reached the Ascendant stage the moment you broke through.
If I had received this news on the day of the celebration, I wouldn't have brought Zhu Hui to make things difficult for you, nor would I have chosen to go against you. It's just a mere quota. I, Nangong, can afford to lose it. "
Nangong Yuanqing sighed and said, "It's a pity that the news came too late, and I was careless and didn't check your current cultivation base, which led to this situation."
"Oh? Since Patriarch Nangong is aware of this, why don't you repent in time and let the enmity disappear with a smile? "
Ning Qi laughed.
"A smile dissolves all enmity? What a joke! "
Nangong Yuanqing burst into laughter. "Do you take me for a three-year-old? How can I let go of the enmity between us? If I let you live, I'm afraid it won't be long before you step on my head and shit on me. "
After a pause, he said, "How about this: hand over the Burning Karma Fruit, and I'll let you die quickly."
"So you didn't kill me immediately because of the Burning Karma Fruit."
Ning Qi looked at Nangong Yuanqing with a look of realization.
"You guessed correctly."
Nangong Yuanqing laughed.
He was like a cat toying with a mouse. He wasn't afraid of Ning Qi's tricks at all. If he could let a Karma Realm cultivator escape from him, he wouldn't mind giving up his cultivation base!
"Unfortunately, you guessed wrong."
Ning Qi suddenly laughed.
"What did you say?"
Nangong Yuanqing was slightly stunned.
In the next moment, he saw Ning Qi take out a black wine gourd, and he could feel an extremely terrifying aura from the wine gourd!
"What kind of spiritual treasure is this? Sixth-grade? Fifth-grade? "
"Seventh-grade Connate spiritual treasure, the Devil Refining Gourd."
Ning Qi smiled.
Then, all the energy in his body was absorbed into the Devil Refining Gourd, and the Devil Refining Gourd's power gradually manifested. A black mist gushed out and swept toward Nangong Yuanqing.
"Seventh-grade Connate spiritual treasure?"
Nangong Yuanqing shrieked in terror, then turned around and fled without hesitation.
"Do you think you can escape?"
A cold glint flashed across Ning Qi's eyes.
He had been fishing for a year. If he still let a fish escape, he would smash his head against the wall and die.
"Suppress it!"
With a loud roar, all the energy in Ning Qi's body was instantly injected into the Devil Refining Gourd. Then, he half-knelt on the ground, exhausted, with a creepy smile on his face.
"No!!"
Nangong Yuanqing let out a miserable howl as he was sucked into the Devil Refining Gourd by the sudden surge of black mist.
…
Inside the Devil Refining Gourd.
It was a burning world.
Nangong Yuanqing hovered in the air in panic. The boiling magma below him and the heat from it made Nangong Yuanqing feel like it was burning.
"Patriarch Nangong, although I don't have anyone to help me, I can always improve myself."
Ning Qi's voice sounded from inside the Devil Refining Gourd.
Nangong Yuanqing subconsciously looked up, only to see a huge eyeball looking at him mockingly. It was as if Ning Qi was holding the Devil Refining Gourd and aiming his eyes at the mouth of the gourd.
"Ning Qi, Brother Ning …"
Nangong Yuanqing forced a smile. "Why don't we forget about this? As long as you let me out, I'll never hurt you or reveal your secrets!"
"Enjoy it. The Devil Refining Gourd can even refine an immortal palace. If you have a next life, I'll forget about this."
Ning Qi smiled.
As soon as he finished speaking, the surroundings were set ablaze, instantly engulfing Nangong Yuanqing. Apart from the sound of the burning flames, Nangong Yuanqing's bitter curses could be heard inside the Devil Refining Gourd.
The cursing continued day after day, and after half a month or so, the voices gradually weakened.
A month later, the curses completely disappeared.
Ning Qi was still worried, so he waited for a few more months. Then, a golden elixir suddenly jumped out of the Devil Refining Gourd. The elixir's aura made Ning Qi salivate.
"Is this the elixir condensed from Nangong Yuanqing's essence? I wonder what effect this elixir will have … "
Ning Qi fiddled with the elixir for a while before putting it away in his spatial bag.
He would not take this elixir.
Because if he did, he might be contaminated with all of Nangong Yuanqing's karma. It would not be too late to take it after he advanced to the Fate State!
"My cultivation is still not high enough. Otherwise, with Nangong Yuanqing's strength, he wouldn't need to refine it for so long. When I reach the Fate State, I'll probably be able to refine someone like him to death in one day."
