Ning Cheng couldn't help but feel some fear when he thought about how he had to pass through so many statues. These statues could make a move. If he happened to stand next to one of the statues and that statue attacked him, how could he escape?
Knowing that these statues could make sneak attacks, Ning Cheng tried to avoid getting too close to the statues. However, he had no interest in figuring out what was going on. His cultivation was just average, and he would thank the heavens if he could protect himself in this place.
"Dao Friend Ning ….." Just as Ning Cheng was about to leave this place filled with statues, a faint voice called out to him.
Ning Cheng felt very familiar with this voice. He immediately turned around and saw a statue different from the ones around him. When he saw this statue clearly, he couldn't believe it and spoke up in shock, "Brother Song?"
This statue turned out to be Song Chengbo. But unlike the other statues, the skin on Song Chengbo's hands only had a faint grey colour, not the greyish black of the other statues. Moreover, the skin on Song Chengbo's face still had some colour to it, which was completely different from the other clay statues.
"Brother Song, what's going on with you?" Although Ning Cheng asked Song Chengbo, he had already vaguely guessed some of the reasons.
Song Chengbo's voice grew weaker, "I don't have much time, please do me a favour ….."
"Wait …." Ning Cheng knew that Song Chengbo wanted to leave some last words. He immediately called out to Song Chengbo, "Can I save you in this situation?"
"I have two Transforming Spiritual Vines in my ring, which can assimilate the Spiritual Qi in my body ….." Song Chengbo didn't continue to explain and spoke up with a sincere look, "I'm too late. You can have these Transforming Spiritual Vines, please help me deliver a message ….."
Song Chengbo spoke until here, but because he was too weak, he couldn't continue. He even closed his eyes. At this time, the colour on his hands had turned darker, and even his face had turned darker. As for the rosy colour on his face, it had completely disappeared.
Ning Cheng raised his hand and grabbed Song Chengbo's ring. Using his Spiritual Consciousness Thorn, he quickly broke through the restrictions placed on Song Chengbo's ring. Song Chengbo's cultivation was higher than Ning Cheng's, but his array formations and Spiritual Consciousness were not necessarily stronger than Ning Cheng's. Ning Cheng easily broke through the restrictions placed on his ring and opened Song Chengbo's ring.
Ning Cheng understood why Song Chengbo did not let him use the Transforming Spiritual Vine to save him. It was because he was worried that Ning Cheng would not do such a thing. When faced with the death of a Sky Seated expert, others would only think of occupying the ring of this Sky Seated expert. Who would bother to save him? Secondly, he also knew that he couldn't open the ring of a Heaven Seated expert. There was no divine sense in here, so how could he open the ring? Even with divine sense, a Heaven's Mandate Realm cultivator wouldn't be able to open the ring of a Heaven Realm powerhouse in a short time.
However, it was clear that he did not understand Ning Cheng at all. He did not know that Ning Cheng could easily open his ring, nor did he know that Ning Cheng would save him.
Even if Ning Cheng had never seen the Transforming Spiritual Rattan before, as a Grade 6 Celestial River Pill King, he could easily find the Transforming Spiritual Rattan in Song Chengbo's ring.
There were indeed two Transforming Spiritual Vines. Ning Cheng took out one of the Transforming Spiritual Vines and raised his hand to melt the Transforming Spiritual Vine into a few drops of Spiritual Liquid before sending it into Song Chengbo's mouth.
In just a few breaths, Ning Cheng watched in shock as Song Chengbo's sculpture-like body slowly softened. The grey on his face gradually faded, and the color of blood returned to his face. The greyness started to recede from his face and soon extended to his hands. The greyness on his hands also quickly weakened, just like melting ice and snow.
Song Chengbo opened his eyes, and his eyes flashed with a hint of surprise and gratitude. Apparently, he knew that Ning Cheng had fed him the Transforming Spiritual Vine's Spiritual Liquid. However, this was not the time to speak words of gratitude. He quickly closed his eyes and started circulating his spiritual qi.
With Song Chengbo's active cooperation, the greyness on his body receded even faster. After an incense stick worth of time, Song Chengbo opened his eyes again and gave out a long sigh before standing up.
After recovering, Song Chengbo bowed to Ning Cheng and said, "Brother Ning, many thanks for saving my life. Without you, I, Song Chengbo, would have already died."
Ning Cheng smiled and returned Song Chengbo's ring to Song Chengbo before speaking, "Brother Song, we are friends, so it would be too much to thank me. But what the hell is going on? You almost turned into a sculpture? And since you have the Transforming Spiritual Vine, why did you put it in the ring? "
Ning Cheng couldn't figure it out. Since Song Chengbo couldn't use his Spiritual Consciousness, wouldn't it be useless to put the Transforming Spiritual Vine in the ring?
Song Chengbo gave out a sigh, "Brother Ning, let's talk about this later. I, Song Chengbo, am the luckiest person in my life to have a friend like Brother Ning. I won't say much about other things, but if Brother Ning has any requests in the future, just let me know. I will never refuse even half a word. "
Not only did Ning Cheng not covet his ring, but he also saved him. In this cruel place, one could say that Ning Cheng's kindness was as high as the sky. What's more, he had already planned to leave the ring to Ning Cheng. It's just that he didn't have the time to say his last words.
Ning Cheng waved his hand, "Brother Song, please don't treat me like an outsider. Let's talk about the sculptures here. Were these sculptures transformed from cultivators?"
Song Chengbo nodded with a solemn expression, "Yes, these sculptures were transformed from the cultivators who came here. However, most of them are sculptures of dead people, such as cultivators like me. If Brother Ning hadn't saved me, I would have completely turned into a sculpture and would never wake up again. The sculptures that can still attack people are all powerhouses with extreme cultivation. These powerhouses might have been statues for countless years, but they can still attack opponents who approach them. "
Ning Cheng sucked in a breath of cold air. Even with Song Chengbo's cultivation in the Heaven Seated Realm, he could still turn into a sculpture and turn into ashes. Even after countless years, these sculptures could still attack people. What kind of cultivation did they have? Were they all powerhouses above the Eternal Realm?
"No wonder Brother Ning can roam the void alone and can even use his Spiritual Consciousness outside the Temple of Fallen Stars. At least, I have never seen it before. This Temple of Fallen Stars is also called the Temple of Fallen Stars, but this place is just the periphery of the Temple of Fallen Stars. For cultivators who don't understand, the most dangerous thing here might be the spacial wind blades. But in fact, the most dangerous thing here are the clay sculptures. If Brother Ning hadn't taken action, I would have already died. "
Song Chengbo still felt grateful towards Ning Cheng. If Ning Cheng were his teammate, then he might have had a slight chance of saving him. However, Ning Cheng was just a passerby he knew.
Ning Cheng smiled, "Brother Song, you don't have to worry about such a trivial matter. Doesn't it mean that whoever those sculptures attack would be assimilated into a sculpture? "
"Yes, but it doesn't mean that one would turn into a sculpture if they attack you. Instead, if they attack you and make you bleed, you would definitely turn into a sculpture. Once you get attacked by the sculptures, you must take out the Transforming Spiritual Vines as soon as possible; otherwise, there would be no hope. I originally had a total of four Transforming Spiritual Vines, but I left two outside. Unfortunately, a villain plotted against me … Alas, let's not talk about it anymore. "Song Chengbo still felt some lingering fear when he answered.
Ning Cheng guessed that something had happened between him and his teammates, but Ning Cheng didn't ask about it. Just when he was about to ask about the situation inside the Temple of Fallen Stars, Song Chengbo took the initiative to speak up, "The statue gravel beach is just the outermost edge of the Temple of Fallen Stars. Beyond that is the Wood Transformation Forest. The last time I obtained a Great Heaven Essence Fruit, it was at the periphery of the Wood Transformation Forest. Brother Ning, you must not enter the Wood Transformation Forest. Even if you have Spiritual Consciousness, you can only wander around the periphery. If you enter, you will die without a doubt. "
Ning Cheng asked in doubt, "Brother Song, is the Wood Transformation Forest the same as this statue gravel beach? As long as you get entangled by the wood-attributed things inside, your entire body will turn into wood?"
Song Chengbo's expression turned even more solemn, "Yes, and the Wood Transformation Forest is different from the statue gravel beach. The sculptures here are not very densely packed, and there are even fewer sculptures that take the initiative to attack. But in the Wood Transformation Forest, there are vegetation everywhere. If you are not careful, you will end up getting entangled and unable to escape. As long as you can't escape, you will turn into a piece of wood within a dozen breaths. Moreover, the Transforming Spiritual Vines have no effect on wood transformation. If you wander around the periphery of the Wood Transformation Forest, you will eventually encounter the Great Heaven Essence Fruit. "
"Many thanks for Brother Song's reminder. Otherwise, I might have fallen for it." Ning Cheng sighed with emotion. Saving others was the same as saving oneself. This sentence really did make some sense. Otherwise, if he had rushed into the Wood Transformation Forest, how could he still be alive?
Song Chengbo returned the Transforming Spiritual Vine Ning Cheng gave him to Ning Cheng and said, "Brother Ning, I'm going out. I found this Transforming Spiritual Vine outside the Wood Transformation Forest. You can keep it."
"Brother Song, are you not going to go in?" Ning Cheng asked.
Song Chengbo shook his head, "I'm not going in. Others have already taken away what I'm looking for. It doesn't make any sense for me to go in."
Ning Cheng did not continue to speak. Since Song Chengbo did not want to go in, then he would go in alone.
"Brother Ning, before you leave, I have some experience to share with you." Song Chengbo took the initiative to speak to Ning Cheng, "First, don't think that the sculptures here only have the function of sneak attacking cultivators and turning them into mud. In fact, some of the sculptures here are very valuable. Because these sculptures might have been people with great spirit techniques, their mud sculptures contain powerful laws of spirit techniques. These laws of spirit techniques can be comprehended by others. Moreover, some of the sculptures might look like they no longer have anything on the surface. But in fact, many things are hidden within their bodies. "
"Many thanks for Brother Song's reminder." Ning Cheng knew that some knowledge could not be bought in this place.
Song Chengbo pointed to the distance, "Second, the Wood Transformation Forest is the closest forest to the Temple of Falling Stars. As long as you pass through the Wood Transformation Forest, you might be able to enter the Temple of Falling Stars. I heard that the Temple of Falling Stars contains countless starry sky treasures. However, your cultivation is still too low right now, so I suggest that you don't have any ideas about the Temple of Falling Stars for the time being. "
"Take care of yourself, I'm leaving now. By the way, when you go out, you don't have to worry about the direction. As long as you keep walking along the path you came from, you will eventually be able to walk out of those two giant pillars. I'm going to find that villain to settle accounts with. If I don't die, we can meet again in the Eternal Night City. "Song Chengbo finished, cupped his fists towards Ning Cheng, and quickly retreated.
