After Ning Cheng exposed Dou Jiangshi's possession, Dou Jiangshi never came to find him again. He didn't even come up to the deck. As if they knew that Ning Cheng was not easy to get along with, the rest of the people also rarely talked to Ning Cheng. As for the leading Si Chen Qiu Tian, he did not come out.
Ning Cheng also didn't deliberately look for trouble with Dou Jiangshi. Since he finished crafting the Void Cold Light Spear, he decided to stay on the airship to deduce the Dao of Pills. Another half a year passed, and the spaceship stopped. Ning Cheng also stopped deducing the Dao of Pills and walked out of the room.
Si Chen Qiu Tian also walked out. He wanted everyone to leave the flying ship and land outside a huge stone platform that floated in the void.
"This is the teleportation platform?" Yan Kuaifu asked as he looked at the massive stone platform floating in the air.
Qiu Tian smiled, "Don't underestimate this platform. Not only is it a Planar Teleportation Array, but it's also protected by a top-grade array."
Ning Cheng had already sensed the defensive array outside the platform. After experiencing the secret bazaar and the Ancient Ferry Mysterious Clan's concealment array, Ning Cheng realised that his attainments in the Dao of Arrays were nothing compared to the vast universe. He couldn't even restore the teleportation array in the Grand Essence Seabed, let alone arrange such a grand array.
Si Chen Qiu Tian took out an array flag and an entrance appeared in front of the stone platform.
"Let's go in. This Teleportation Array can teleport us directly to the Void City of the Five Realms." While speaking, Si Chen Qiu Tian was the first to enter the Teleportation Platform and followed Protector Ju. Ning Cheng and the other four naturally followed them onto the transmission platform.
Once everyone was on the platform, Qiu Tian waved his hand and a stream of divine crystals flowed out. It was unknown how many divine crystals Qiu Tian had thrown at the edge of the platform.
After the time it takes for half an incense stick to burn, a burst of white light erupted around the boulder platform. The white light directly tore open the Void Space above the boulder platform and swept away Ning Cheng's group of eight.
Ning Cheng had taken the Transmission Array countless times, but this was the first time that he felt that his Spiritual Consciousness could not even move, causing his entire person to fall into a state of dizziness.
He didn't know how long he stayed in the teleportation space. When he woke up, he was already standing on the same giant stone platform. Seeing that there were still people coming and going around, Ning Cheng knew that they must have reached the Five Realms Void City.
Seeing that Ning Cheng was the first of the six participating Pill Saints to sober up, Si Chen's Qiu Tian nodded with satisfaction. Ning Cheng didn't disappoint him. He was a Dao Nourishment Divine Emperor but his dao marks were far stronger than the others.
…
"Did you all come from the Grand Essence Realm to participate in the Five Realms Pill Competition?" Si Chen and Qiu Tian had just walked out of the teleportation array when a Dao Transformation Divine Emperor walked over and asked with cupped fists.
Si Chen Qiu Tian nodded and said, "Yes, we came from the Grand Essence Realm."
"Then please follow me." The Dao Actualisation Divine Emperor gestured and led them out of the teleportation tower.
In terms of the concentration of spirit qi, the Five Realms Void City couldn't compare to a major sect like the 9-Revolutions Sacred Dao Pond. In fact, it couldn't even compare to Heaven Essence Sacred City. However, when Ning Cheng's eyes casually swept around, he could already see how strong the people here were. Dao Essence Divine Emperors could be seen from time to time and even Primordial Essence Divine Emperors would come and go.
The array formations and restrictions around these merchant houses were much more sophisticated compared to the merchant houses in Heaven Essence Sacred City.
The Dao Actualisation Divine Emperor led Ning Cheng and the others to a rest stop. Ning Cheng could see clearly from the outside that this rest stop was called the Great Change Rest Stop.
"You can rest here. When you go to the Great Change Realm, someone will come to inform you." The Dao Actualisation Divine Emperor didn't even arrange a room for them. He brought Ning Cheng and the others here and immediately left.
Si Chen Qiu Tian said to Ning Cheng and the others, "You guys settle in here first. I have some things to do. When you're free, you can go to the Void Marketplace. Don't create a rift with others. There are many experts here and no one is simple. "
In fact, even without Si Chen Qiu Tian's words, everyone knew that no one here was simple. How could anyone who could come to the Five Realms Void Marketplace be simple?
Ning Cheng vaguely guessed that Si Chen Qiu Tian must have gone to find some connections because he brought one more person.
The price of the rooms in the Great Change Rest Stop was the same, 10,000 god crystals a day. For a Pill Sage like Ning Cheng, even if it cost 100,000 god crystals a night, he could still afford to stay for a few months.
"Brother Ning, I wonder if you have time to go to the Void Marketplace?" To Ning Cheng's surprise, Le Xizhen, who had once lost to him, took the initiative to invite him.
Ning Cheng replied politely, "I'm a little tired and need to rest. Brother Le, go ahead."
"Big Brother Le, I also want to go to the Void Marketplace. Why don't we go together?" Mei Xiuwan quickly said when she saw Ning Cheng refuse.
Among the six, Le Xizhen's Pill Dao level was second only to Ning Cheng. It wouldn't be surprising if she became a Primordial Dao Pill Sage in the future. Mei Xiuwan was a Dao Nourishment Pill Sage, so she naturally wanted to make friends with her.
"Count me in too." Yan Kuaifu and Mei Xiuwan were very close. Plus, he also wanted to go to the Five Realms Void Marketplace, so he didn't hesitate to recommend himself.
…
Ning Cheng didn't want to cause trouble. He came to the Five Realms Pill Competition not only to obtain the wood-attributed top-grade god spirit vein, but also to see if Cang Wei and Pan Qian were in the Great Change Realm.
Pan Qian originally wanted to come to the Great Change Realm. As for Cang Wei, according to him, he could only come to the Great Change Realm to open the Gate of Good Fortune.
After returning to his room, Ning Cheng immediately activated the room's restrictions and continued to deduce the Alchemy Dao. He lacked the materials to refine Primordial Dao Pills. Therefore, he could only deduce his Alchemy Dao through the Mysterious Yellow Formless Cultivation Method.
After more than half a year of deduction, his Alchemy Dao level had reached a new level. Unfortunately, he didn't have any Dao Fruits to practice on.
Ning Cheng didn't sit in the room for long before the room's restrictions were triggered. Ning Cheng opened the restrictions and looked at Protector Ju standing at the door in confusion. "Senior Ju, why are you looking for me?"
"It's not that I'm looking for you, but the Association Master is looking for you. Hurry up and come with me." Protector Ju eagerly gestured to Ning Cheng, indicating that Ning Cheng should follow him.
Ning Cheng had a slightly bad feeling in his heart. Protector Ju was a very steady person. Although he had a high cultivation level, he was never impatient or talkative. Why was he so anxious at this moment? Did something happen?
"Senior Ju, did something happen?" Not far away, Jing Han and Dou Jiangshi walked out of their rooms.
Protector Ju said to the two, "It's nothing serious. You stay here and rest. I'll take Ning Cheng out for a while. I'll be back soon."
Dou Jiangshi's eyes turned, "Senior Ju, why don't we go together? With more people, we can take care of each other."
Ning Cheng sneered. You're just a Dao Transformation Realm cultivator, yet you dare say that you can take care of each other? Dao Transformation Holy Emperors might be considered as powerhouses in the Grand Essence Realm, but in this place, they were just ants.
Protector Ju didn't think too much about it and just replied casually, "Alright, let's go together."
… …
Standing in front of the Grand Change Pill Meet's entrance, Ning Cheng realised where Protector Ju wanted to take him.
After entering the Pill Meet, the four quickly came to the entrance of a hall. After entering the hall, Ning Cheng found at least forty to fifty people in the hall.
Situ Chen's Qiu Tian sat on the side of the hall with a slightly pale face.
Ning Cheng was a Dao Essence Pill Saint, and his attainment in Dao Pills wasn't something ordinary alchemists could compare to. He had even integrated the Dao of Alchemy into the Grand Dao of Returning to One. Seeing Situ Chen's Qiu Tian's condition, Ning Cheng immediately understood that his Dao Heart had been damaged. That chaotic aura not only contained the aura of his own Grand Dao, but it also contained the dao charm aura of the Dao of Alchemy.
Many powerhouses in the hall didn't care about Situ Chen's Dao Charm's chaotic Dao Charm. No one stepped in to help either. Everyone was just talking and laughing merrily.
"Association Master, Ning Cheng is here." Protector Ju walked up to Situ Chen's Qiu Tian and whispered.
Situ Chen's Qiu Tian seemed to have recovered. Seeing the three people behind Protector Ju, he sighed slightly, "Since you're here, sit down. Don't talk too much."
No one felt strange about the arrival of Ning Cheng's group of four, nor did anyone say anything.
Ning Cheng didn't know what happened. Back in Heaven Essence Sacred City, Ning Cheng knew that Situ Chen's Dao Heart of Alchemy had cracks. But now, Situ Chen's Dao Heart of Alchemy showed no signs of healing. Instead, it grew bigger and bigger.
Situ Chen's Dao Heart was different from him. He cultivated the Dao of Returning to One. He had only integrated his Dao of Alchemy into the Dao of Returning to One. It was just a small part of the Grand Dao. But Situ Chen's Qiu Tian was the opposite. He had integrated his Grand Dao into the Dao of Alchemy. In the future, the further his Dao of Alchemy could go, the further his Grand Dao could go.
Now that Situ Chen's Dao of Alchemy had cracks, it would be strange if his Grand Dao could progress any further.
Sitting at the head of the table was a man wearing a purple robe. This man didn't care about Ning Cheng and the others coming over. Instead, he looked at Situ Chen's Qiu Tian and said calmly, "The first round of the Pill Discussion has ended. Grand Essence Realm Pill Association's Association Master Situ Chen's Qiu Tian fell at the end. He only managed to identify 12 out of the 20 materials. Association Master Situ Chen, do you still want to compete for a spot? "
Situ Chen's Qiu Tian's hands trembled slightly. According to the previous rules, each Five Realms Pill Competition would increase some spots. As a Association Master, he was also familiar with the host of the Five Realms Pill Competition. Therefore, it wouldn't be a problem for him to get a spot for Ning Cheng.
But what he didn't expect was that the host of the Five Realms Pill Competition had changed. Moreover, the Grand Essence Realm wasn't the only one who wanted a spot. Therefore, this time, the Pill Dao Competition would decide who would get a spot. In the first round, there were 20 kinds of divine grasses. But as the Association Master of a Realm Pill Association, he only managed to identify 12 of them. Moreover, the Association Masters of the other realms also managed to identify at least 17 of them, which made the cracks in his Heart of Alchemy even bigger.
Ning Cheng didn't ask Situ Chen's Qiu Tian about it. But after hearing the words of the purple robed man, he vaguely understood the situation. Not waiting for Situ Chen's Qiu Tian to answer, Ning Cheng sent a sound transmission to Situ Chen's Qiu Tian. "Association Master, others might have recognised more. But there's only one Association Master. Everyone else has five or six people around them."
Situ Chen's Qiu Tian understood Ning Cheng's meaning. It was to comfort him. He sighed, but before he could speak, the purple robed man asked again, "Does Association Master Situ Chen want to continue participating in the competition?"
"Naturally." Seeing Situ Chen's Qiu Tian still not speaking, Ning Cheng spoke up without hesitation.
