Ning Cheng originally came to the Defying Ice Mound to help Nalan Ruxue find a spirit technique. But now that Nalan Ruxue not only found the spirit technique but also the inheritance, Ning Cheng naturally wouldn't stay in this place.
Although the mutated laws were powerful, it was a pity that the mutated law aura of the Defying Ice Mound disappeared after Nalan Ruxue accepted the inheritance. As such, Ning Cheng couldn't continue to comprehend the law aura under the mutated law.
As soon as Ning Cheng walked out of the Defying Ice Mound, he received Kong Ning's message. He immediately replied and waited for less than half an incense stick worth of time before Kong Ning's group of four appeared in front of Ning Cheng. Among the four, the star on Jing Xingwen's forehead was a little dim, and there seemed to be traces of blood. It seemed like he was heavily injured.
"It's a happy event to see Senior Apprentice Brother Ning again ….." Kong Ning's words stopped before she could finish.
She did not see Nalan Ruxue, moreover Ning Cheng also did not seem to be in high spirits. In her opinion, Ning Cheng's companion, Nalan Ruxue, should have died in the hands of the Defying Ice Beasts. As such, it wouldn't be appropriate to continue talking about happy events.
"I wonder why Junior Apprentice Sister Kong Ning is looking for me?" Ning Cheng wanted to go to the Grand Essence Seven Bridges and didn't want to talk to these four people.
Kong Ning quickly replied, "It's like this. I really admire Senior Apprentice Brother Ning's cultivation. I wonder what Senior Apprentice Brother Ning thinks about my River Luo Sacred Sect?"
Ning Cheng spoke up with an apologetic tone, "I'm really sorry, but this is the second time I've heard of the River Luo Sacred Sect. The first time was also because of you, so I can't express my opinion. But I think the River Luo Sacred Sect must be a very big sect for it to be able to cultivate a powerhouse like Junior Apprentice Sister Kong Ning. "
Hearing Ning Cheng's words, Kong Ning's group of four looked at each other in dismay. After a while, Kong Ning spoke up with a dry voice, "Senior Apprentice Brother Ning, have you really never heard of the River Luo Sacred Sect?"
Ning Cheng showed a slight frown. His first sentence was to be polite. What did the River Luo Sacred Sect have to do with him? Was there a need to repeatedly ask him if he had heard of the River Luo Sacred Sect?
Sensing Ning Cheng's displeasure, Kong Ning quickly spoke up, "It's like this. I want to invite Senior Apprentice Brother Ning to join my River Luo Sacred Sect. With Senior Apprentice Brother Ning's cultivation, even if he came to my River Luo Sacred Sect, he would have his own sacred peak. "
Ning Cheng showed a smile, "Many thanks for Junior Apprentice Sister Kong Ning's invitation, but I'm used to being alone. If I join a large academy, I'm afraid that I won't be able to stand the restrictions. If he were to violate the sect's rules, it would be a waste of Junior Sister Kong Ning's kindness. If Junior Apprentice Sister Kong Ning has nothing else to say, then I will take my leave. "
Ning Cheng initially wanted to ask Kong Ning and the others if they had any information about the Grand Essence Seven Bridges. But in the end, he dispelled the idea. He believed that he wasn't the only one going to the Grand Essence Seven Bridges. After arriving at the Grand Essence Seven Bridges, he could also purchase it from other cultivators.
Seeing Ning Cheng leave, Kong Ning couldn't speak for a long time.
"There's such a person who doesn't know of the River Luo Sacred Sect? He even rejected Senior Sister Ning's invitation. If anyone else was invited to join the River Luo Sacred Sect, they would probably wake up laughing in their dreams. "
Xie Zhilan said in a somewhat incredulous tone.
Jing Xingwen, who had a star on his forehead, spoke up, "Therefore, you can only be a puny disciple. Others can go to the Defying Ice Beast Area and come out unscathed."
"What's so great about that? Didn't his Dao companion die in the end? A person who can't even protect his own Dao Companion is just like this. "Xie Zhilan retorted in an unconvinced manner.
Kong Ning waved her hand, "Everyone, stop arguing. Let's go. This kind of powerhouse has his own secrets. It's not surprising that he doesn't want to join the River Luo Sacred Sect. It's a pity …. "
"Sister Ning, are you feeling sorry for the next Grand Essence Great Meet?" Xie Zhilan asked.
Kong Ning nodded, "Yeah. If an expert like Ning Cheng could join the River Luo Sacred Sect, my River Luo Sacred Sect would definitely have a greater say in the next Grand Essence Great Meet. So it's a pity."
… …
Without Nalan Ruxue, Ning Cheng could travel much faster by himself. After the Twin Wings of the Heavenly Clouds underwent nirvana, his speed became even faster. Even in the Grand Essence Ruins, it didn't affect him at all.
The Grand Essence Seven Bridges, one of the most famous places in the Grand Essence Ruins. However, unlike what Ning Cheng expected, there weren't many cultivators who came to the Grand Essence Seven Bridges.
The spirit techniques in the Grand Essence Seven Bridges were indeed very valuable, and many people yearned to obtain them. However, the Grand Essence Seven Bridges was also one of the most dangerous places in the entire Grand Essence Ruins. Of the cultivators who entered the depths of the Grand Essence Seven Bridges, only two or three out of ten could come back alive. As for whether those two or three who came back would obtain the Grand Essence Seven Bridges Spirit Technique, it was something that no one could even dream about.
Despite the dangers of the Grand Essence Seven Bridges, only a few cultivators came here. Apart from pursuing greater power, there was another reason. That was, the spirit techniques in the Grand Essence Seven Bridges weren't the only ones. Many cultivators could also find some ordinary spirit techniques here. Moreover, these spirit techniques were equally powerful and worth a lot of points.
In the Grand Essence Quest Hall, cultivators liked spirit technique quests the most. After receiving such quests, not only could they learn the spirit techniques, but they could also earn a lot of points. Except for some spirit techniques that couldn't be copied, anyone who completed a spirit technique quest would find a way to learn the spirit technique or engrave the spirit technique before handing in the quest.
Ning Cheng arrived at the Grand Essence Seven Bridges but didn't see a single person.
The entrance to the Grand Essence Seven Bridges was covered in a white mist. This mist isolated spiritual consciousness and contained a highly toxic aura. Not only could this aura strangle spiritual consciousness, but it also contained a violent power. It gave people the feeling that once they entered this fog, they would immediately be strangled to death.
This aura was somewhat similar to the aura outside the Ancient Shadow Temple. When Ning Cheng went to the Ancient Shadow Temple, he had also sensed a similar poisonous mist aura at the entrance. It's just that the poisonous mist outside the Ancient Shadow Temple wasn't even a hundredth of the one here.
Ning Cheng's first feeling wasn't that the mist here was powerful, but that fellow named Zhong Wuchen.
The Ancient Shadow Temple and the First Bridge of Coping below were all built by that fellow, Zhong Wuchen. He established the Ancient Shadow Temple to learn the Seven Bridges Spirit Technique. Seeing this place, Ning Cheng guessed that Zhong Wuchen must have come to this place before. That's why he simulated this place and built the First Bridge of Coping.
Zhong Wuchen had paid a huge price, but he still couldn't learn the Seven Bridges Spirit Technique, not even the First Bridge.
Ning Cheng took in a deep breath and decided to enter the white mist to search for the Seven Bridges Spirit Technique. It wasn't that Ning Cheng was conceited, but Ning Cheng believed that with the Everlasting Blue Thunder Fort and a powerful body-forging cultivation method, he should be able to cope with some sudden crises.
More importantly, Ning Cheng had always suspected that his Seven Bridges Realm Book had something to do with the Seven Bridges Spirit Technique. Now that he had arrived at the Grand Essence Seven Bridges, if he didn't go in and take a look, he wouldn't be able to sleep.
Ning Cheng brought out the Everlasting Blue Thunder Fort and, without any hesitation, stepped into the white mist.
The white mist isolated spiritual consciousness, and even Ning Cheng's spiritual consciousness could only reach a few feet in radius within this white mist. According to Ning Cheng's understanding, the Ancient Shadow Temple was arranged by Zhong Wuchen to simulate the Grand Essence Seven Bridges. If he stepped into the white mist, then there should be a gate behind it.
But Ning Cheng didn't expect that he would step into the air. After stepping into the white mist, he found nothing. It was completely empty below.
The moment Ning Cheng stepped into the air, a powerful suction force emerged, and he immediately activated the Twin Wings of the Heavenly Clouds. Ning Cheng could still release his spiritual consciousness in this place, and coupled with the Twin Wings of the Heavenly Clouds, he didn't fall but slowly descended.
After a full hour, Ning Cheng's feet finally touched the ground. During this hour, his Spiritual Consciousness also slowly adapted to the violent poisonous mist around him. Originally, he could only see a range of about three feet. But after adapting, he could now see more than ten feet around him.
Around Ning Cheng's spiritual consciousness, except for a few white skeletons, the rest of the skeletons were all black, without a single human figure. These skeletons were scattered over the grey-black gravel, and if one didn't look carefully, one wouldn't notice them.
The violent poisonous mist repeatedly scoured around the Everlasting Blue Thunder Fort, but it couldn't break through the Everlasting Blue Thunder Fort's defences.
Ning Cheng walked on the greyish black gravel, while at the same time he took the initiative to stretch out his Spiritual Consciousness, in order to temper his Spiritual Consciousness.
Thanks to his powerful starry sky Sea of Consciousness, Ning Cheng's spiritual consciousness slowly expanded as he tempered it. One hundred and fifty feet, two hundred feet, three hundred feet … …
A day later, Ning Cheng's spiritual consciousness could already see a range of dozens of miles around him. In the end, he even took the initiative to release some of the violent poisonous mist. When the poisonous mist fell on him, apart from corroding his clothes, it didn't affect his body as much as he imagined.
Ning Cheng secretly sighed. His body-forging cultivation method had no continuation after reaching the Starry Sky Body. Otherwise, his body-forging cultivation method wouldn't be too bad in this place.
Although there were many skeletons under his feet, Ning Cheng didn't see a single ring.
After a few more days, Ning Cheng's spiritual consciousness finally reached its limit. He then saw the outline of a bridge hundreds of miles away.
After seeing the outline of this bridge, Ning Cheng didn't even think about it before speeding up.
Soon, Ning Cheng arrived at the bridgehead of this bridge. Five words were scrawled over the bridgehead, 'First Bridge of Coping'. The five words gave off bursts of Dao Charm that permeated into one's soul. It was countless times more powerful than the First Bridge of Coping he saw under the Ancient Shadow Temple.
But what puzzled Ning Cheng was that he didn't encounter the same gloomy winds as under the Ancient Shadow Temple.
"Do you also want to cross the bridge?" A sudden voice appeared beside Ning Cheng, and Ning Cheng discovered that someone had appeared beside him without him noticing. He took a few steps back and looked at the cultivator who suddenly appeared in front of him with some vigilance. Ning Cheng had a feeling that this cultivator's cultivation didn't seem to be higher than his own.
This cultivator wore a grey robe and had long hair that fell behind his back. Coupled with his slightly pale face, it gave people a very uncomfortable feeling.
Seeing Ning Cheng's fear, he quickly waved his hand and said, "Dao Friend, you don't have to worry. Since you can walk to the bridgehead of the Bridge of Coping, it shows that you're not ordinary. My name is Zhong Wuchen, and I also want to cross the bridge. But I feel that I'm alone, so I waited here to find someone to team up with. "
If this cultivator hadn't said that he was Zhong Wuchen, Ning Cheng would have believed that he wanted to team up. But when he heard the name Zhong Wuchen, he immediately felt his scalp tingle.
