Ning Cheng didn't even have the mood to buy the void positional jade strip. Instead, he teleported away from the Five Realms Void City as fast as he could.
A year later, Ning Cheng stood on the Starry Sky Wheel with a hint of excitement on his face. The Grand Essence Realm was right in front of him. Twenty to thirty years away from the Grand Essence Realm might be a blink of an eye for other cultivators. But for Ning Cheng, who had just left Earth, it was a long time.
Because of the Array Dao jade strip left behind by Nianyan, Ning Cheng could get by without Yan Ji's company. During the few years on the road, his cultivation didn't progress much, but his Array Dao level almost surpassed the top Spirit Array Grand Masters.
Even Ning Cheng himself could not estimate his own attainments in the Dao of Arrays. At this time, not to mention restoring the teleportation array to the four grand starry skies under the Grand Essence Sea, he could even refine some of the teleportation array's components. If his cultivation was strong enough, setting up a teleportation array between interfaces wouldn't be a problem for him.
But on the way from the Five Realms Void City to the Grand Essence Realm, Ning Cheng found it difficult to calm down and deduce the Array Dao. He had always been worried about Si Chen Qiu Tian's punishment. With Si Chen Qiu Tian's strength, no one could punish him unless the top ten sects joined forces. Otherwise, only Dao Perfection powerhouses could do so.
Moreover, there were only a few Dao Perfection powerhouses in the Grand Essence Realm, and they were all seeking the third step of Dao Confirming. How could they have the time to punish Si Chen Qiu Tian?
The defensive array outside the Grand Essence Realm was almost non-existent. Ning Cheng didn't have to exert much effort to enter the Grand Essence Realm. Thinking about the powerful protective array around the Grand Change Realm, Ning Cheng couldn't help but feel a little emotional. He wondered when the Grand Essence Realm would become like the Grand Change Realm.
If the Grand Essence Realm wanted to become like the Grand Change Realm, the Grand Essence Realm's Heaven and Earth Laws could be restored and the realm's Earth Veins could be restored. But who would have the means to restore the Grand Essence Realm?
Ning Cheng shook his head. He also felt that it wasn't realistic.
… …
After entering the Grand Essence Realm, Ning Cheng put away the Starry Sky Wheel and entered the Heaven Essence Sacred City with the appearance of an ordinary rogue cultivator.
He remembered the first time he came to the Heaven Essence Sacred City, Ning Cheng marveled at the prosperity and grandeur here. From afar, the Heaven Essence Sacred City looked like a floating city surrounded by white clouds. Moreover, it didn't have any Forbidden Flight Restrictions. Perhaps this was a place where there was no Flight Restriction, but no one dared to fly here. After everyone arrived at the Heaven Essence Sacred City, they immediately put away their flight-type weapons and chose to walk into the city.
After many years, when Ning Cheng came to the Heaven Essence Sacred City again, it still didn't have any Flight Restriction. But unlike before, there were several flight-type weapons flying around the Heaven Essence Sacred City. Some of them directly rushed into the sacred city, while others flew out of it. They didn't care about the gazes of others.
What was going on? Ning Cheng frowned a little. Just like before, he put away his flight-type weapon and walked to the entrance of Heaven Essence Sacred City.
The entrance of the Heaven Essence Sacred City didn't have the same bustling scene as before. Although there were still a lot of people, it looked a lot more deserted compared to before. It couldn't compare to the reputation of the premier sacred city in the Grand Essence Domain.
How could there be such a huge change in just a few decades? Ning Cheng found it hard to think clearly. In his opinion, Heaven Essence Sacred City had existed for many years. If it wanted to change, it would have changed a long time ago. Why did it change when he left? What Ning Cheng didn't know was that Heaven Essence Sacred City had only changed in a few years.
After entering the Heaven Essence Sacred City, Ning Cheng immediately went to the Pill Union.
After an incense stick worth of time, Ning Cheng stood in front of the Pill Union in a daze. The Pill Union in the shape of a pill furnace had disappeared, and the big pill with pill charm lingering in front of the Pill Union had also disappeared.
A new ship-shaped building had appeared on the site of the Pill Union, with the words' Barbarian Dragon Merchant City 'written above it.
Did the Barbarian Dragon Clan occupy the Pill Union? Thinking about what Shan Yaocen said about Union Master Si Chen being punished, Ning Cheng immediately thought of Man Suotian. Only Man Suotian had the ability to punish Si Chen Qiu Tian. But why did Man Suotian do this? He was a Dao Perfection Holy Emperor.
When Ning Cheng recalled that Man Suotian was a Dao Perfection Holy Emperor, it suddenly dawned on him. Man Suotian was indeed a Dao Perfection Holy Emperor, but the Grand Essence Sea was also part of the Grand Essence Domain. If Man Suotian wanted to comprehend the third step of Dao Confirming, he could only go to the Grand Change Realm.
Even if Man Suotian was a Dao Perfection powerhouse, he wasn't qualified to go to the Grand Change Realm. His strength was enough to dominate the Grand Essence Realm, but he wasn't qualified to go to the Grand Change Realm.
Ning Cheng's only chance was to obtain a quota for the Five Realms Pill Competition. With the quota for the Five Realms Pill Competition, even the Realm Lord of the Grand Change Realm wouldn't find an excuse to expel Man Suotian from the Grand Change Realm.
As Ning Cheng thought of this, all the clues connected.
The quota he obtained to the Grand Change Realm was in the hands of Si Chen Qiu Tian. Si Chen Qiu Tian might give it to other sects, but he definitely wouldn't give it to Man Suotian. Si Chen Qiu Tian knew that he had a grudge with the Barbarian Dragon Clan, so how could he give his quota to Man Suotian?
If Si Chen Qiu Tian didn't give the quota to Man Suotian, then how could Man Suotian give up in order to comprehend the third step of Dao Confirming in the Grand Change Realm? No matter how many Man Jiuren Ning Cheng killed, Man Suotian might not come out of seclusion to settle accounts with him. But a quota to the Grand Change Realm was enough for Man Suotian to give up everything.
Ning Cheng's heart sank. If Man Suotian took action, then Union Master Si Chen wouldn't just be punished.
Ning Cheng didn't enter the Barbarian Dragon Merchant House. Instead, he turned around and prepared to look for Sword Trimountain. He didn't have many friends in the Heaven Essence Sacred City, but Sword Trimountain and Cheng Houtian were trustworthy friends.
He Jie? Ning Cheng didn't go far before he saw an acquaintance. When he took the Pill Saint Exam, He Jie had led the way. Because of him, He Jie had gained a foothold in the Pill Union.
Since the Pill Union was destroyed, seeing He Jie at this time, Ning Cheng naturally wanted to come forward and ask about it.
He Jie lowered her head and walked in a hurry. She seemed to want to go out of the city.
Ning Cheng quickly stepped forward to stop He Jie, "This dao friend, wait …."
Suddenly stopped, He Jie quickly took a few steps back and stared at Ning Cheng with vigilance, "I don't know you. Why are you looking for me?"
Ning Cheng cupped his fists and said, "I want to ask where the Pill Union moved to?"
He Jie's expression changed, but she immediately said, "Sorry, I don't know about this."
After saying that, she turned around to leave.
Ning Cheng quickly sent a sound transmission, "He Jie, I changed my appearance. You don't know me. I'm Ning Cheng. You were the one who led the way to the Pill Union's assessment. Do you remember? "
Ning Cheng had a lot of faith in He Jie's character. He had even given her a good medicinal pill.
"Ah …." He Jie felt shocked. But she quickly reacted and sent a sound transmission, "Pill Sage Ning, hurry up and come with me. This is not a place to stay for long."
Hearing He Jie's words, Ning Cheng knew that he didn't see wrong.
… …
An hour later, in a place far away from Heaven Essence Sacred City, Ning Cheng stopped the airship. "He Jie, what's going on with the Pill Union?"
He Jie's eyes turned red, "Pill Sage Ning, Man Suotian killed Association Master Si Chen. Everyone in our Pill Union saw it clearly. Not only did Si Chen and Qiu Tian die, but Man Suotian also killed many of the Pill Union's elders. Man Suotian broke into the Pill Union's headquarters. At first, no one thought that he would attack the Association Master. By the time others reacted, he had already made his move.
Seeing the Association Master die, the Pill Union's elders immediately took action. Man Suotian was just too powerful. Moreover, no one from the other sects came forward to help the Pill Union. Plus, the Pill Union still had many experts who couldn't rush back in time. In that battle, Man Suotian turned the Pill Union into a river of blood and killed almost half of the Pill Union's elite Pill Saints …. "
"Man Suotian …." Ning Cheng roared.
Si Chen and Qiu Tian could be said to be half-teacher and half-friend. With Si Chen and Qiu Tian's reputation in the Grand Essence Realm, Man Suotian dared to kill them. Did he think that his Barbarian Dragon Clan was strong enough to sweep away everything?
Ning Cheng clenched his fists until blue veins popped out on his hands. He couldn't wait to kill the Barbarian Dragon Clan and uproot the entire Barbarian Dragon Clan. But he also knew that he didn't have the strength to do so right now.
"Pill Sage Ning, you must be careful. Everyone thinks that you have fallen. If you show up now, once others learn about it, someone will definitely attack you. "Feeling Ning Cheng's monstrous anger, He Jie quickly whispered to persuade him.
When the Pill Union existed, Ning Cheng's appearance now was an honour and the object of everyone's pursuit. But without the Pill Union, Ning Cheng was just a child carrying gold.
Ning Cheng took in a deep breath. Although he carried gold, he wasn't a child. He waved his hand and said, "You don't have to worry. Tell me the details of the situation. When the Elixir Association was attacked by Man Suotian, who left? Among those who came, who were watching from the sidelines, who spoke up to help, or did they lend a hand? "
Regardless of his friendship with Si Chen and Qiu Tian, even Ning Cheng himself was the second Pill Sage of the Pill Union, a Dao Essence Pill Sage.
Man Suotian dared to risk universal condemnation and kill the Pill Union. Ning Cheng also dared to kill the Barbarian Dragon Clan. The principle he pursued was not that there would be an end to revenge, but that he had to take revenge when there was a grudge.
"Um." He Jie rubbed her red and swollen eyes and began to narrate the situation that day. She also had deep feelings for the Pill Union. Without the Pill Union, there wouldn't be today's He Jie.
An hour later, Ning Cheng calmly looked into the distance. He heard that the River Luo Sacred Sect also had a Dao Perfection expert. Although he didn't come out, the River Luo Sacred Sect had stepped on his bottom line. After he advanced to the Dao Essence Realm, the first thing he would do was to destroy the Barbarian Dragon Clan. As for Man Suotian, even if he was a Dao Perfection Holy Emperor, so what? Even if he had to play dirty, he would kill this fellow. River Luo Sacred Sect, he would still go there.
"You said that apart from Silver Dragon Clan's Gong Huayu, no one else stood up to speak up for the Pill Union?" Ning Cheng didn't expect Gong Huayu to be so loyal. He felt sure that Gong Huayu spoke up for the Pill Union because of him.
"Um, after Gong Huayu spoke a few words, Silver Dragon Clan's Patriarch Gong Wu scolded him. He didn't dare to continue. As for the rest of the major sects, apart from a few who didn't come, none of them stood up to speak up for our Pill Union. "
"I see." Ning Cheng nodded. "Do you know where Man Suotian went after that?"
Ning Cheng guessed that He Jie didn't know about it, but he couldn't help but ask.
He Jie hesitated before saying, "Man Suotian wasn't on the Void Airship that left Heaven Essence Sacred City for the Great Change Realm."
