Ning Cheng looked at the First Bridge with joy as it grew clearer and clearer. At the same time, he fantasized about the second bridge, the third bridge ….. If all five bridges solidified, even if he met that poison centipede again, he could easily escape.
But a fantasy was a fantasy after all. At the critical moment when the First Bridge solidified, the endless yin demons disappeared without a trace, and the solidification of the First Bridge stopped.
The surrounding illusions disappeared, and the yin qi also dissipated. The stone forest remained the stone forest, and Qi Shisanxing was still unconscious in the cave in the distance.
Ning Cheng frowned slightly. If there were no yin demons formed from the yin qi, it meant that his First Bridge of Coping couldn't truly solidify.
Although Ning Cheng felt somewhat unwilling, he didn't put away the First Bridge of Coping. Instead, he still aimed his long spear at the previous stone peak.
It contained the same violent celestial essence and the same violent power. The only difference was that when the long spear struck the stone peak, no illusions appeared, and no yin qi blocked it.
"Boom ….." With a loud noise, Ning Cheng's spear blasted the stone peak into pieces.
Ning Cheng's Spiritual Consciousness swept through the fragments of the stone peak that he had smashed apart, but other than the gravel, there was nothing else. Not to mention Divine Chalcedony, he couldn't even find a trace of spirit qi.
Putting away the Seven Bridges Realm Book, Ning Cheng walked to a thousand-foot-high stone peak and shot out another spear.
Sure enough, the yin qi suddenly rolled up again, and Ning Cheng's long spear suddenly stopped. This time, Ning Cheng was prepared. Before his Sea of Consciousness could be affected, he brought out the First Bridge of Coping.
The endless yin qi couldn't form any powerful yin demons at all. Instead, the First Bridge of Coping absorbed the yin demons as soon as they formed.
This time, it wasn't the yin demons that rushed to the First Bridge of Coping. Instead, the First Bridge of Coping actively absorbed the yin demons and the surrounding yin qi.
After absorbing the endless yin qi again, the First Bridge of Coping finally solidified. As the pale white stone bridge spread out, Ning Cheng's thoughts filled with the idea of controlling everything. Ning Cheng took in a deep breath and was about to step onto the Bridge of Coping to see if he could control this spirit technique.
Before he could even take a step forward, the surging Yin Qi had already dissipated completely.
What's going on? The First Bridge of Helplessness's absorption time was even shorter than the last time. Not long after it started, the Yin Qi and Yin Demons disappeared.
Although he didn't understand what was going on, Ning Cheng still used his spear to shatter the thousand-foot-tall stone peak. However, the stone peak still didn't contain any Divine Chalcedony.
Could it be that every Shi Feng only had this little amount of Yin Qi? Ning Cheng did not stop, and once again shot out his spear towards a several hundred feet high stone peak. This time, Ning Cheng was even more disappointed. After Ning Cheng smashed apart the several hundred feet high stone peak, not even a trace of Yin Qi came out.
An hour later, Ning Cheng finally understood what was going on. Only when he blasted away the taller stone peak would he be able to unleash a torrent of Yin energy. After he destroyed the thousand-feet-tall stone peak, there was no longer any Yin Qi in the stone peaks below the thousand-feet-tall one. He could only destroy the stone peaks that were taller than that.
Even so, the amount of Yin Qi he could produce was getting smaller and smaller.
Ning Cheng's Spear Strike had already broken through a three thousand feet tall stone peak, but it did not cause any Yin Qi to roll out, as such he knew that it would not make any sense for him to continue. This place definitely had a Yin Qi Illusory Array arranged by a super-powerful Array Dao Master. Since there was no Yin Qi rolling out, it most likely prevented people like him from taking advantage of it.
Ning Cheng shook his head and prepared to put away his spear and wake up Qi Shisanxing. Without the Illusory Array, it wouldn't be difficult for him and Qi Shisanxing to leave the Lost Stone Forest.
A hint of fragrance attracted Ning Cheng's attention. His spiritual consciousness swept through the three thousand feet tall stone peak he had just destroyed and immediately found the source of the fragrance. The thing that gave off the fragrance was a black stone the size of an egg.
Ning Cheng took a step forward and picked up the black stone. It felt soft to the touch, just like a soft-shelled egg.
An extremely comfortable feeling permeated into his Sea of Consciousness, causing his spiritual consciousness to cool down a bit.
This must be Divine Chalcedony, Ning Cheng thought as he looked at the soft thing in his palm in surprise. Previously, he had destroyed dozens of mountain peaks, but he didn't find any Divine Chalcedony. He didn't expect to find Divine Chalcedony when he thought that it wasn't in the stone peaks.
Ning Cheng took out a jade box and carefully put away the Spiritual Consciousness Essence before starting to bombard the stone peaks.
Over the next two days, Ning Cheng selectively blasted through thousands of stone peaks. Apart from the three thousand feet tall stone peak, which contained a piece of Divine Chalcedony, he didn't find any more Divine Chalcedony in the stone peaks. Among them, he had also blasted through three thousand feet tall stone peaks, but he still didn't find any Divine Chalcedony.
Ning Cheng shook his head. It seemed that this Divine Chalcedony wasn't something that could be obtained easily.
He decided to check if Qi Shisanxing had woken up and find a way to leave this place together.
"Brother Ning, you didn't lose yourself?" Ning Cheng had just turned his head when Qi Shisanxing walked over and looked at Ning Cheng in surprise.
But before Ning Cheng could speak, he looked around Ning Cheng in shock, "You've blasted through so many stone peaks? How come you didn't lose yourself? "
Ning Cheng didn't bother to answer him. He raised his spear and smashed it down before saying, "Look, no matter how many stone peaks I destroy, it doesn't affect me …."
He didn't want to reveal the Seven Bridges Spirit Technique. Although Qi Shisanxing was a good person, he had just met him. Once the Seven Bridges Spirit Technique was revealed, who knew how many people would covet it?
Ning Cheng's words suddenly paused. He saw a small black mass in the middle of the shattered stone peaks. A faint fragrance spread out, and Ning Cheng recognised it at a glance. It was the same thing he had put away before, Divine Chalcedony.
Ignoring Qi Shisanxing, Ning Cheng rushed up and grabbed the piece of Divine Chalcedony in his hand again. This piece of Divine Chalcedony was a bit smaller than the previous one. It also had a black mass and looked soft.
"Brother Ning, this, this …." Qi Shisanxing also hurriedly walked up to Ning Cheng and pointed at the black soft stone in Ning Cheng's hand. After a long time, he finally managed to squeeze out a sentence, "Is this Divine Chalcedony?"
Ning Cheng smiled and put the piece of Divine Chalcedony in his hand into Qi Shisanxing's hand. "Congratulations, you got it right. This is Divine Chalcedony. To tell you the truth, Divine Chalcedony is in these stone peaks. Some of these stone peaks have it, and some don't. I've smashed thousands of stone peaks, but I only got two …. "
Ning Cheng's words paused again. As he spoke, his spiritual consciousness covered the pile of stone peaks he had smashed. When he looked at the thousands of stone peaks again, he felt something wrong. He was a Spirit Array Master and had a thorough understanding of array formations.
As his spiritual consciousness covered the stone peaks he had smashed, he found that the positions of the two stone peaks where he had obtained the Divine Chalcedony looked very strange. It seemed to be similar to the location of the Psychedelic Array Foundation, but also somewhat different.
"Brother Ning, are you okay?" Seeing Ning Cheng in a daze, Qi Shisanxing quickly asked.
Ning Cheng waved his hand and said to Qi Shisanxing, "I'm going to stay here and study the array foundation in the Lost Stone Forest. You continue to smash the stone peaks. Once you find the Divine Chalcedony, put a mark on the spot and tell me."
Qi Shisanxing opened his mouth and wanted to persuade Ning Cheng not to do such useless work. He was also proficient in array formations. Yet, he couldn't find the array foundation for tens of thousands of years. Yet, Ning Cheng said that he wanted to study the array foundation here. Qi Shisanxing swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue.
Previously, he had also tried to persuade Ning Cheng not to attack Shi Feng. In fact, Ning Cheng not only blasted away the stone peak, but he also found the Divine Chalcedony inside the stone peak. From the looks of it, his thoughts might not be entirely correct.
"Alright, I'll go look for Divine Chalcedony. I'll let you know as soon as I find it." Qi Shisanxing reluctantly returned the Divine Chalcedony in his hand to Ning Cheng and then brought out his weapon in high spirits. Apparently, he believed that he could find the Divine Chalcedony.
Ning Cheng put away the Divine Chalcedony and didn't bother with Qi Shisanxing. He sat down and started to comprehend the array foundations of the stone forest around him.
Previously, Ning Cheng had blasted these stone peaks, causing Qi Shisanxing to fall unconscious. Currently, Qi Shisanxing bombarded the stone peaks while Ning Cheng went into seclusion to comprehend the array foundation.
Qi Shisanxing's luck was much worse than Ning Cheng's. He didn't know how many stone peaks he had smashed, but he only found a piece of Divine Chalcedony on the tenth day. Even so, his joyful voice was extremely exaggerated.
Fortunately, Qi Shisanxing's luck improved. On the 16th day, he found a second piece of Divine Chalcedony.
After a month, he had already found five pieces of Divine Chalcedony. Seeing Ning Cheng still meditating with his eyes closed, Qi Shisanxing decided to leave a few pieces for Ning Cheng.
Ning Cheng stood up at this time. He had obtained two pieces of Divine Chalcedony, while Qi Shisanxing had obtained five. The locations of these seven pieces of Divine Chalcedony gave him a vague impression.
Perhaps he couldn't arrange such a huge illusory array with his current ability. But he could find the locations of the array foundations with Divine Chalcedony through his own calculations over the past month.
"Brother Qi, don't waste your time. There's no Divine Chalcedony in these stone peaks." Just when Qi Shisanxing was about to smash another stone peak a few hundred feet wide, Ning Cheng stopped him.
Qi Shisanxing looked at Ning Cheng in confusion, "I haven't broken these stone peaks yet. How do you know it's not here?"
He didn't believe that Ning Cheng's spiritual consciousness could penetrate these stone peaks. These stone peaks' ability to isolate spiritual consciousness was far stronger than their cultivation.
Ning Cheng showed a smile, "I found a pattern."
After saying that, Ning Cheng brought out his long spear, and in a place a few dozen feet away from Qi Shisan Star, his spear struck a stone peak only a few dozen feet high.
The stone peak collapsed, and a pitch-black piece of Divine Chalcedony appeared in front of the two.
Qi Shisanxing looked at the pitch-black piece of Divine Chalcedony sluggishly. After a while, he looked at Ning Cheng and exclaimed, "Brother Ning, you've struck it rich. You must remember me."
Ning Cheng had indeed struck it rich. After finding the pattern of Divine Chalcedony's locations, he and Qi Shisanxing dug out more than a hundred pieces of Divine Chalcedony in just a dozen days. Even if they made a mistake, it wouldn't be too much of a mistake.
"Huh, there's another skeleton here …." Ning Cheng stopped. He saw a skeleton with some skin still attached to it. Since he found the pattern of Divine Chalcedony's appearance, he hadn't seen a skeleton, let alone such a complete one.
Qi Shisanxing also came over and carefully looked at the skeleton on the ground. He suddenly sighed and said, "I know who this person is."
