Bao Xi still regretted it in his heart. If he hadn't been in a hurry to kill Zhu Zhengfeng and had instead snatched the ring, it would have ended up in his hands by now. Zhu Zhengfeng's ring definitely wasn't simple, but it was a pity.
While Bao Xi was still regretting, Ning Cheng had already opened Zhu Zhengfeng's ring and took out two pots of None-to-depend-on Wine.
Seeing Ning Cheng open Zhu Zhengfeng's ring at an extremely fast speed and take out two pots of wine for himself, Bao Xi felt even more fearful. Even if an Eternal-level cultivator fell, it would not be easy to open the restrictions on his ring. Ning Cheng easily opened Zhu Zhengfeng's ring, which showed that Ning Cheng was a top-grade Array Formation Master.
Bao Xi, who wanted to make friends with Ning Cheng, put away the two pots of None-to-depend-on Wine and took the initiative to speak to Ning Cheng, "I don't know what this friend needs my help with?"
Ning Cheng was still marveling at Zhu Zhengfeng's wealth. But when he heard Bao Xi's words, he quickly put aside the ring and spoke with a smile, "Brother Bao, I have two friends who entered the Thousand Mound Forest. Zhu Zhengfeng should be chasing after my two friends. Since Brother Bao is the landlord here, I want to ask Brother Bao about their location. "
Bao Xi hesitated for a moment before taking out a jade strip and handing it to Ning Cheng, "I, Bao Xi, will make friends with you. The Thousand Mound Forest covers a radius of hundreds of millions of miles. My territory is only this area, but I got news that a day ago, there was a large fluctuation of Essence Qi in the southeast. Maybe you can go and have a look. I've already marked the specific location on the jade strip. "
Ning Cheng took the jade strip and cupped his fists, "Many thanks, Brother Bao. My name is Ning Cheng, and I'll also make friends with Brother Bao. I'll go look for my friends first. If I have time in the future, I'll definitely visit Brother Bao. "
Talking to a demonic cultivator felt refreshing and didn't need to beat around the bush. If Duan Gantai had said that he wanted to make friends with Ning Cheng, Ning Cheng would have definitely thought that Duan Gantai wanted to scheme against him. However, Ning Cheng didn't doubt Bao Xi's words. He and Bao Xi had no conflict of interest. Since Bao Xi said that he wanted to make friends with him, it meant that he recognized him.
Before Ning Cheng left, he suddenly remembered something, "Brother Bao, I also want to inquire about the Thousand Mound Forest. Where can I find Sifting Ferry Grass?"
"You want Sifting Ferry Grass?" Bao Xi's eyes flashed with surprise.
Ning Cheng nodded, "A friend of mine needs it, so I just wanted to ask."
Bao Xi remained silent for a moment before speaking, "There is indeed the Sifting Ferry Grass in the Thousand Mound Forest, but as far as I know, with Brother Ning's current cultivation, you would not be able to get close to this place. This place was called the Altar of Forefather's Library, the most mysterious place in the Thousand Mound Forest. Even I dare not approach the surroundings of the Altar of Forefather's Library. In the jade strip map I gave you, there is the location of the Altar of Forefather's Library. If not necessary, I suggest that Brother Ning not go to the Altar of Forefather's Library for now. "
Altar of Forefather's Library? Ning Cheng had some doubts in his heart. He had purchased several jade strips in the Thousand Mound Makeshift Market, but none of them mentioned the Altar of Forefather's Library.
"In any case, many thanks Brother Bao." Ning Cheng once again thanked Bao Xi, before he turned around and left.
…
The Thousand Mound Forest jade strip given by Bao Xi was many times more detailed than the map of the Thousand Mound Forest that Ning Cheng had purchased. In addition to the place that Bao Xi circled on the jade strip, there was indeed an Altar of Forefather's Library.
Although Ning Cheng's Twin Wings of the Heavenly Clouds had not yet evolved, in a place like the Thousand Mound Forest, as long as he had a specific direction, the speed of the Twin Wings of the Heavenly Clouds could not be intercepted by ordinary demonic beasts. In just an hour, Ning Cheng found the location that Bao Xi had circled.
It was a mess, but Ning Cheng did not see Tian Muwan or the blue-robed female cultivator. However, he knew that a battle must have taken place here. Moreover, it was the most terrifying fire-attributed battle. This place had been burned to nothingness by the flames, and even the ground had a huge pit.
Ning Cheng walked into the place that had been burned by the flames and immediately noticed something different. There was a trace that extended away from the crater, and the line that left the crater was slightly less scorched. This kind of burning should have started only after someone had left.
Ning Cheng followed this trace and quickly caught the aura of Essence Qi fluctuations. Someone had indeed escaped from this place.
Just an hour later, Ning Cheng stopped again, and a huge Celestial Essence fluctuation once again passed through. Ning Cheng immediately sped up, and after half-an-incense stick worth of time, his Spiritual Consciousness could clearly see what was happening.
A skeleton and a male cultivator were besieging a pale-faced demonic youth. Ning Cheng did not know the skeleton, but Ning Cheng was very familiar with the male cultivator. He was more than two feet tall and had blond hair and a horse-like face. He was Shui Guangxi, an expert from the Shui Clan who had recently advanced to the Eternal Realm.
Not far from where the three people were fighting, a faint circle of light flickered. Two female cultivators lay inside the circle of light, and Ning Cheng recognised them at a glance. They were Tian Muwan and the blue-robed female cultivator. The two of them should have changed their appearance, but the masks had long since disappeared. Moreover, both of them were unconscious.
The Celestial Essence fluctuations from the fight between the three cultivators kept bombarding the faint circle of light. However, the circle of light seemed to be very tough and did not break.
Ning Cheng instantly understood that the blue-robed female cultivator had arranged this circle of light. Most likely, these three people were fighting for the things on the blue-robed female cultivator's body. Although the blue-robed female cultivator arranged this defensive circle of light, it could only protect them for a while. Once the three of them fought, the circle of light would not be able to stop them.
The fight between the three people was extremely fierce, and the demonic beasts in the surroundings had already fled in fear. As for the trees in the forest, they were completely destroyed. A huge ravine appeared between the three people, and powerful Celestial Essence explosions continued to erupt.
One could imagine that if not for the faint circle of light protecting Tian Muwan and the blue-robed female cultivator, they would have already turned into slag under the shockwaves of this fight.
Ning Cheng hid to the side and tried to converge his aura as much as possible. He couldn't beat any of these three people, and he did not have a better way to deal with them. If the blue-robed female cultivator and Tian Muwan did not have the protection of the circle of light, he could have secretly taken them away. But now, as soon as he came out and attacked the circle of light, he would immediately be discovered.
After the time it takes for half an incense stick to burn, just as Ning Cheng was thinking about how to open the circle of light to save Tian Muwan and the blue-robed female cultivator, a few rays of Celestial Essence swept over the circle of light, and the circle of light cracked open without any warning.
Ning Cheng felt happy in his heart. These few rays of Celestial Essence came from the pale-faced demonic youth, and since they hit the circle of light, it could be considered as a mistake.
Even after the circle of light exploded, the fight between the three people showed no signs of stopping. From this, Ning Cheng understood that these three people did not care about the lives of the blue-robed female cultivator and Tian Muwan at all. What they wanted was the ring.
However, Ning Cheng found something wrong. The pale-faced cultivator seemed to have intentionally or unintentionally moved towards Tian Muwan and the blue-robed female cultivator.
Ning Cheng had already done this kind of thing many times, so he immediately understood what the pale-faced demonic youth was planning. The few rays of Celestial Essence that the demonic youth released just now definitely did not hit the circle of light by accident. Rather, it was intentional. Now that he wanted to snatch the ring, he knew that this situation was similar to what happened between him and Bao Xi.
Bao Xi's cultivation was higher than his, but after he obtained the ring, Bao Xi had to compromise with him. Otherwise, he would not get anything.
Ning Cheng originally planned to calculate the timing of the attack, but after seeing the figure of the pale-faced demonic youth, he no longer cared about anything else. He rushed out in a flash and grabbed Tian Muwan and the blue-robed female cultivator with each hand. He then immediately stimulated the Twin Wings of the Heavenly Clouds and teleported away.
Ning Cheng had just grabbed Tian Muwan and the blue-robed female cultivator when the pale-faced cultivator arrived. Although he was only two breaths slower than Ning Cheng, he still managed to grab nothing.
As soon as the pale-faced demonic youth moved, the skeleton and Shui Guangxi understood his plan and immediately brought out their weapons to attack the pale-faced cultivator.
While the pale-faced demonic youth resisted the attacks from the skeleton and Shui Guangxi, Ning Cheng had already disappeared without a trace.
After Shui Guangxi and the skeleton started fighting, they realised that the three of them had fallen into a trap. Not waiting for the pale-faced demonic youth to explain, the skeleton and Shui Guangxi immediately withdrew their attacks and chased after Ning Cheng.
The pale-faced demonic youth naturally did not have the mood to talk nonsense with Shui Guangxi and the skeleton and also chased after Ning Cheng.
It wasn't that he didn't want to bring out the Starry Sky Wheel, but at this moment, he had already detected the Forbidden Space Array Formation. Once the Forbidden Space Array Formation appeared, it meant that he was in the depths of the Thousand Mound Forest.
Besides, even if there was no Forbidden Space Array Formation, he could not bring out the Starry Sky Wheel. The three powerful fellows behind him were like maggots on a tarsal bone, chasing after him. Most likely, he would not even have the chance to drive the Starry Sky Wheel before they caught up to him.
Fortunately, the Forbidden Space Array Formation helped Ning Cheng. Since Ning Cheng could not use the Starry Sky Wheel, the three people behind him also could not use flight-type weapons. Although the Twin Wings of the Heavenly Clouds also felt suppressed, the Twin Wings of the Heavenly Clouds were different from ordinary flight-type weapons. Although Ning Cheng could not use the Twin Wings of the Heavenly Clouds to fly continuously, he could still use the Twin Wings of the Heavenly Clouds to increase his speed.
The three people chased after him while Ning Cheng ran in front. In terms of cultivation, Ning Cheng was slightly weaker than the three people. But since he was the one running away, he could choose the direction he wanted to go. With the help of the Twin Wings of the Heavenly Clouds, the distance between Ning Cheng and the three people behind him slowly began to widen.
As the distance continued to widen, Ning Cheng did not dare to relax even for a moment. Once these three people caught up with him, he would have no chance to escape from the depths of the Thousand Mound Forest, which was suppressed by the Forbidden Space Array Formation.
The three people behind him felt as if they had eaten a weight and were determined to catch up to Ning Cheng. Ning Cheng had been running for five or six days in the Thousand Mound Forest, but these three people still did not give up.
In the end, Ning Cheng simply ignored the three people behind him and kept running. He did not believe that he could not get rid of these three dog skin plasters.
Ning Cheng did not know how long he had been running for, but when his Spiritual Consciousness felt suppressed, he finally stopped.
As soon as he stopped, Ning Cheng noticed that the three people behind him had already disappeared. He breathed a sigh of relief and looked around.
In this place, his Spiritual Consciousness had been suppressed to less than ten miles, but Ning Cheng did not worry about it. He had seen many places that suppressed Spiritual Consciousness, so there was nothing to worry about.
