Ji Luofei hugged the dying Ning Cheng and hid in a small Void Island. Even with the help of the Thunder Tribulation, Ning Cheng had to pay a huge price to kill Xu Kai. This kind of injury, for him, was something he had never experienced before.
Fortunately, he still had Ji Luofei. Ji Luofei was a Crucible Transformation Cultivator. Although she could not quickly escape through the Void like Ning Cheng, it was not a problem for her to save Ning Cheng.
It took Ning Cheng more than a dozen days to fully recover. Although he did not fear the Thunder Tribulation, the Thunder Tribulation was still too terrifying. Even if he advanced to the 8th Level of Sea Opening Realm, he still suffered some serious injuries.
"You were too reckless this time." Ji Luofei did not cultivate these days and just stayed by Ning Cheng's side. When she thought of Ning Cheng's injuries at that time, she immediately felt some fear.
Ning Cheng showed a smile, "Fortunately, I chose to act at that time. Otherwise, once that Xu Kai completed his tribulation, I'm afraid that we would have met with disaster. This person is just too terrifying. His cultivation is so powerful that I can't even imagine it. An ordinary Plundering Life Realm Cultivator would not be his opponent. No wonder he is the premier expert of the Rootless Black City. "
"What do we do now? Do we return to the Rootless Black City? Although the Laws of the Void are powerful, it is also very unstable. "Ji Luofei had walked through the Void for a day and was already aware of the dangers within the Void.
Ning Cheng nodded, "Returning to the Rootless Black City is a must. However, my current cultivation is still too low. Let's see if there are any good things in the Xu Clan's father and son's ring. "
Ning Cheng opened Xu Liangzhi's ring. Seeing the tens of millions of Black Coins, Ning Cheng secretly sighed. He had been busy for a long time, yet he only managed to obtain a little more than 10 million Black Coins. Spirit Stones piled up one after another, along with a variety of Black Essence Stone Ores, Artefact-crafting Materials and some Alchemy Spiritual Grasses piled up everywhere.
It was extremely rare for an ordinary Crucible Transformation Cultivator to obtain a True Artefact. As such, inside Xu Liangzhi's ring, there were at least a dozen True Artefacts.
Ning Cheng's vision was very high; as such, he simply did not even look at it. He put away all the materials, and gave the ring to Ji Luofei. Ji Luofei's Magical Weapon was a gift from Meng Jingxiu, as such the quality of it was a notch higher than Ning Cheng's True Cosmic Devil Axe, as such it was obvious that she did not even look at these True Artefacts.
What he cared about the most was Xu Kai's ring. Xu Kai, as the Rootless Black City's Premier Expert, definitely had a lot of good things on him.
However, what made Ning Cheng puzzled was that he did not see any Black Coins in Xu Kai's ring. However, Ning Cheng also knew where Xu Kai's Magical Weapons went. He had seen with his own eyes that Xu Kai, in order to resist the Thunder Tribulation, had wasted several good magical weapons.
Inside Xu Kai's ring, in addition to several bottles of pills and a pile of Spirit Stones, the most eye-catching thing was a pile of blue ores.
This was a blue essence stone mine? Ning Cheng could feel the energy overflowing from these ores, and immediately affirmed that this was a Blue Essence Stone Mine.
How many Blue Coins could this pile of Blue Essence Stone Ore be exchanged for? This Xu Kai was really rich. His wealth was something that others could not even imagine.
When Ning Cheng felt very satisfied with these harvests, his Spiritual Consciousness immediately grabbed more than a dozen jade boxes. He raised his hand and opened one of the jade boxes. There was a crystal shining with powerful spiritual energy inside.
Ning Cheng was so pleasantly surprised that he almost called out, this kind of crystal stone was something that he really wanted. Meng Jingxiu had given him three of them, allowing him to advance again and again in the shortest possible time. Ning Cheng had initially thought that it would be difficult to obtain this kind of crystal stone, but he did not expect that he would obtain so many of them this time.
Ning Cheng counted them and found that there were a total of 12 of these crystal stones.
No wonder this Xu Kai's cultivation was so powerful, and could even break through to the Plundering Life Realm. It turned out that this fellow also had this kind of crystal stone; however, Ning Cheng did not know where this fellow's crystal stones came from.
In addition to this, there were also a few jade strips containing cultivation methods and magical skills. There were also more than a dozen Transmission Array Talismans, which made Ning Cheng understand why Xu Kai could arrive here so quickly. This fellow had already arranged a few hidden Transmission Arrays in the Void. Once there was an emergency, he could immediately teleport to the approximate location that he wanted to go to in the shortest possible time.
Although it was dangerous to teleport through the Void; however, for an expert like Xu Kai, he could still withstand the dangers of such a short distance.
In Ning Cheng's eyes, these crystal stones were the most precious.
"Luofei, let's go into secluded cultivation. After I advance to the Crucible Transformation Realm, I will then return to the Rootless Black City. "Ning Cheng instantly made a decision.
If he returned to the Rootless Black City now, then no one would dare to speak even half a word against him. However, his strength was limited. Once there was a conflict of interest, sooner or later, someone would find trouble with him. As such, it would be better to wait until his strength reached a certain level before returning to the Rootless Black City.
What's more, Ning Cheng also wanted to do something else. Without strength, he simply could not do it.
Ji Luofei could use Spirit Stones for cultivation; however, Ning Cheng chose to go into secluded cultivation using crystal stones. Spirit Stones, for him, had a very limited role; moreover, it would take a long time.
After using Spirit Stones for cultivation for some time, Ning Cheng once again used the crystal stones for cultivation. The Spiritual Qi absorbed and transformed into Spiritual Qi, causing Ning Cheng's entire body to feel comfortable. This kind of cultivation speed was exactly what he wanted.
In just one month, Ning Cheng advanced from the 8th Level of Sea Opening Realm to the 9th Level of Sea Opening Realm. Three months later, Ning Cheng's cultivation reached the full-circle of the 9th Level of Sea Opening Realm.
… …
The current atmosphere within the Rootless Black City was very strange. More than four months ago, the Junior City Master, along with a team of more than a hundred people, along with a Plundering Life Realm Cultivator, went out in search of the Black Essence Stone Mine. However, there was no news of them since.
More than three months ago, the Rootless Black City's City Master Xu Kai suddenly came out of seclusion in anger, before rushing out of the Rootless Black City. From his words, many people judged that Junior City Master Xu Liangzhi had died. Moreover, the one who killed Xu Liangzhi was the arrogant newcomer Ning Cheng, the one who destroyed the Silver Thunder Chamber of Commerce.
Now that four months had passed, there was no movement from the City Master's Mansion. Not to mention that Ning Cheng and the Junior City Master had not returned, even after City Master Xu Kai went out, there was no news of him.
Ning Cheng's encirclement was still in place; even Ning Cheng's Immortal Cave was still in the same place. No one had touched it. Even if there were all kinds of speculations, at this time, no one would say anything.
… …
"Boom-Boom ….." Thunder roared, while Ning Cheng stood empty-handed in the Void, letting the countless Lightning Arcs and Thunder Waterfall descend.
Not only did he not bring out the Everlasting Blue Thunder City, but he also did not bring out the Nirvana Spear and the 36 Cosmic True Devil Axes.
Almost 60% of the violent Lightning Arcs ended up absorbed by him, while the rest of the Lightning Arcs, apart from tempering his corporeal body, did not cause even the slightest bit of harm to him.
Ning Cheng knew the reason for this. When he and Xu Kai fought under the Thunder Tribulation, the Thunder Tribulation was much more powerful compared to this one. He even managed to survive such a powerful Thunder Tribulation. At this time, with his cultivation improving, this Thunder Tribulation was not even worth mentioning.
"Kaka ….." His bones gave off a burst of brittle sounds, as if he had reached a critical point before advancing.
Ning Cheng was pleasantly surprised. He originally wanted to cross the Thunder Tribulation to advance to the Crucible Transformation Realm. He did not expect that before advancing to the Crucible Transformation Realm, his Body-Forging Realm would have a breakthrough first. As long as this Thunder Tribulation was a bit more powerful, he would directly advance to the Rank 6 Imperial Body.
After understanding that this Thunder Tribulation was not powerful enough, Ning Cheng did not hesitate to bring out the Nirvana Spear and rush towards the Thunder Tribulation. A powerful Spear Intent shot out towards the descending Thunder Tribulation Arcs.
"Boom … Ka …." The Thunder Tribulation really became enraged once again. The raging Thunder Waterfall mixed with some Thunder Balls descended, and the crazy blue colour instantly submerged Ning Cheng. Ji Luofei, who was watching the Thunder Tribulation from a distance, felt even more frightened. She retreated step by step. She knew that she could not help Ning Cheng at this moment. Although she felt anxious, it was useless.
"Poof Poof ….." Ning Cheng's armour finally shattered under the Thunder Tribulation Arcs. The dense Lightning Arcs bombarded Ning Cheng's body, causing Ning Cheng's flesh and blood to splatter in all directions. Even his bones started to crack.
However, the next moment, these cracked bones quickly reformed, allowing him to sublimate and condense at an even faster speed.
A powerful feeling welled up in his heart, causing Ning Cheng to suppress the ecstasy in his heart. He knew that he had already advanced to the Rank 6 Imperial Body. Thunder Tribulation was a life-threatening thing for others, but he was completely different from others.
Let this Thunder Tribulation become even more violent, Ning Cheng prayed in his heart, while simultaneously blasting out with the Nirvana Spear. The True Essence within his meridians simultaneously erupted, as if wanting to open the barrier between his cultivation.
"Bang ….." It was as if the cloth covering his mouth and nose had suddenly been torn apart, causing an incomparably sober aura to pour in. The Nirvana Spear in Ning Cheng's hand suddenly transformed into a Spear Trace. These Spear Traces directly split the Thunder Tribulation Arcs in front of him into two halves.
Only after the Spear Traces submerged into the Void did the Thunder Tribulation Arcs close up. However, that incomparably powerful Thunder Tribulation immediately weakened. As this wave of Thunder Tribulation passed, the following Thunder Tribulation Arcs could no longer cause even the slightest bit of harm to Ning Cheng.
Ning Cheng stood in the Void, allowing the Lightning Arcs to fall on his body without moving an inch. After many years of hard struggle, he finally advanced to the Crucible Transformation Realm, becoming a genuine Crucible Transformation Cultivator. After he finished the matters regarding the Rootless Black City and the Receiving Heaven's Stone, he could then head out into the starry skies of the universe to find his own path.
