Shui Yueke remained silent. If there was no deep hatred between them, she would have definitely stayed with Yan Ji and Ning Cheng. But she couldn't. She still had a deep hatred, so she had to find a place to model her Dao. If such a day came, she would definitely fight her way to the 9-Revolutions Sacred Dao Pond to avenge her sister, Shui Yuexin.
"Junior Apprentice Sister Yan Ji, how about this. This place is still too close to the 9-revolutions Sacred Dao Pond. We'll have to fly for a few months. If Ning Cheng doesn't wake up by then, I'll find a place to sculpt my Dao. " Shui Yueke decided that if Ning Cheng didn't wake up in a few months, then it would be very difficult for him to wake up.
Without the 9-revolution Sacred Dao Pond's people chasing after him, Yan Ji would be enough to take care of Ning Cheng. With the people from the 9-Revolutions Sacred Dao Pond chasing after them, it wouldn't help even if she joined them. She really needed to model her Dao. If she didn't model her Dao, how could she avenge her little sister?
…
Furnace Sand wasn't a material, but the name of a place.
Rumor has it that Furnace Sand got its name because a powerful Pill Saint once concocted pills here. The Pill Saint who was refining the medicinal pills, because he underestimated the difficulty of the furnace of medicinal pills, he destroyed the furnace of medicinal pills. The ingredients for this cauldron of pills were all made up of top-grade heavenly and earthly treasures. This Pill Saint would never be able to obtain such ingredients again. In a fit of rage, the Pill Saint destroyed all the pill furnaces.
When the Pill Sage was concocting pills, he absorbed 90% of the god spiritual energy in this area. Later, when the pill furnace was smashed, the terrifying temperature of the pill furnace turned this area into a barren wasteland.
This place had become a place where there were no spiritual herbs and no vitality.
After countless years, this place slowly regained some vitality, and some low-level spirit herbs appeared. However, the God Spiritual Qi here had always been extremely sparse.
Some cultivators who could not cultivate or were unable to advance slowly migrated here. In the end, this place gradually formed a group of residences. The people living in this group were all ordinary people with low cultivation. Some of them even had no cultivation at all.
In the Grand Essence Realm, ordinary people without cultivation meant death. Therefore, those ordinary people without cultivation, or some ordinary cultivators with low cultivation, would gather together to live.
Furnace Sand was such a place. There were many descendants of cultivators here. They couldn't cultivate or their cultivation levels couldn't increase.
The whole of Furnace Sand was like a village, with irregular buildings everywhere. The elixir shop, spirit herb shop, and magic tool shop were all extremely simple and crude. There were even some grocery stores here. If a cultivator suddenly came to Furnace Sand, they would never believe that this was a place from the Grand Essence Realm. Instead, they would think that this was a corner of the lowest-level True Cultivation World.
In fact, this place was indeed part of the Grand Essence Realm, but it was at the edge of the Grand Essence Realm.
…
The sun was setting!
One after another, some figures returned from afar. They were all ordinary people and cultivators with low cultivation bases who had gone to the Black White Mountain Range in search of cultivation resources.
Those with high cultivation bases generally wouldn't come back every day. Instead, they would stay in the Black White Mountain Range.
A grey-clothed woman walked over from afar. The gradually slanting setting sun cast a long shadow on her. Behind her, there was a person in deep sleep secured by an artifact strap.
Her hair was a little messy from the night wind, and the slightly messy hair fell beside the corner of her eyes, which was covered by a veil, adding a touch of gentleness to her beauty.
All the people living in Furnace Sand knew this grey robed woman, and knew that she was called Yan Ji.
That's right, this grey-robed woman was Yan Ji. After staying with her for half a year, Shui Yueke left to seek her Dao Sculpting Realm. Yan Ji took Ning Cheng to a remote place until they arrived at Furnace Sand.
The Furnace Sand lacked spiritual qi, and powerhouses wouldn't come here at all. For Yan Ji, this was the most suitable place for her to live.
Looking back, Yan Ji had been in Furnace Sand for three years now. During these three years, she had never left Ning Cheng alone. Even when she went to the Black White Mountain Range in search of cultivation resources, she never left Ning Cheng behind.
Thanks to the Sacred Essence Fruit, Yan Ji managed to advance to the middle-stage Life and Death Realm in this place that lacked spiritual qi.
In Furnace Sand, Yan Ji's cultivation wasn't the highest, but she definitely belonged to the high-levelled group. Only a few people came to provoke her. Occasionally, one or two cultivators who didn't open their eyes came over, but she killed them without hesitation.
Yan Ji travelled from the starry sky to the void, from one celestial river to another, and even came to the Grand Essence Realm. She had no one to rely on. She could grow to the Life and Death Realm just by relying on her own efforts. She had experienced many life and death battles along the way. Moreover, she also had rich combat experience. Against cultivators in the same realm, as long as they weren't particularly heaven-defying, she didn't fear them at all. Besides, it wasn't like she hadn't done anything before.
For someone like her, coming to a corner like Furnace Sand, she naturally didn't fear some small fry.
Yan Ji originally wanted to rush to the late-stage Life and Death Realm before leaving the Black White Mountain Range. But recently, she felt that Ning Cheng seemed to have some aura fluctuations, and this aura fluctuations were getting stronger and stronger.
Not only was the aura fluctuations getting stronger and stronger, but Ning Cheng's grizzled hair had also gradually turned grey, and some of it had even started to turn black.
Because of these changes, Yan Ji felt that Ning Cheng might wake up. Therefore, she left the Black White Mountain Range with Ning Cheng and returned to Furnace Sand.
Half of the Black White Mountain Range was covered in black soil, while the other half was covered in white soil. This mountain range was only ten thousand miles away from Furnace Sand. Although it didn't have many high-grade divine grasses, it had some powerful high-level demonic beasts because of its vast expanse.
The distance between the Black White Mountain Range and Furnace Sand was almost non-existent. However, no demonic beasts came to Furnace Sand because the spiritual qi in Furnace Sand was too weak. It was so weak that even the lowest-level demonic beasts didn't want to come here.
If Ning Cheng wanted to wake up, then he definitely couldn't stay on her back. Yan Ji feared that the Black White Mountain Range would be in danger, and she wouldn't be able to take care of Ning Cheng for a while. Therefore, she hurried back to Furnace Sand with Ning Cheng.
As soon as she entered Furnace Sand, Yan Ji felt that something was wrong. She had left Furnace Sand for less than two months, but there were already many strange faces here. Moreover, their cultivations weren't weak. She even saw several Eternal-level experts. Some of them even had cultivations beyond the Eternal Realm. Although she couldn't see their cultivation, she guessed that they shouldn't be any weaker than Dao Sculpting Cultivators.
Yan Ji regretted coming out of the Black White Mountain Range, but she quickly understood the situation. These people seemed to have come for the Black White Mountain Range because people kept entering the Black White Mountain Range, regardless of the dark sky.
Yan Ji quickly lowered her head and hurried into Furnace Sand.
Some of the messy buildings on the periphery of Furnace Sand had long since been leveled and replaced by some luxury-looking caves and weapons. When she arrived at her residence, Yan Ji found that her residence had also been leveled.
Yan Ji didn't dare to ask what was going on. She just sped up and left. When her spiritual consciousness swept over a group of people who lived in Furnace Sand all year round, she felt slightly relieved. These people had no choice but to move away from their original places because outsiders had already leveled their residences. Some people had sad expressions on their faces, most likely because outsiders killed their people. It seems that these outsiders didn't intend to kill them all.
"Uncle Yu? Why are there so many outsiders? "Yan Ji quickened her pace and whispered to an old man in the crowd.
Uncle Yu's name was Yu Caifeng, and he had a Celestial Gatherer Realm cultivation. Moreover, he was born in the Grand Essence Realm and cultivated with Spirit Qi since childhood. Otherwise, with his qualifications, he wouldn't have even formed a Domain, let alone nirvana.
It's just that if he didn't break through, his lifespan would soon reach its end. With Yu Caifeng's aging meridians and bones, and in a place with almost no Spirit Qi, it would be extremely difficult for him to break through.
For a cultivator who had never cultivated before, cultivating with Spirit Qi from the very beginning would result in a much higher height than cultivators who cultivated with Spirit Qi. Moreover, Spirit Qi wasn't omnipotent. No matter how high it made you stand, it would eventually lose its effect.
Yu Caifeng sighed and whispered, "I heard that someone found a pill furnace in the Black and White Forest. This pill furnace was left behind by that Pill Sage. That Pill Sage's pill furnace wasn't broken. These people came here to look for this pill furnace. Some people even said that there's a world inside the pill furnace, with many treasures ….. "
Yu Caifeng sighed as he spoke until here, "It would be difficult for us to live here in peace in the future."
After saying that, he lowered his head and didn't answer Yan Ji's words.
Yan Ji's heart sank. This was the last thing she wanted to see. She had long since felt satisfied with living a peaceful life with Ning Cheng here. These outsiders wanted to find the pill furnace left behind by the Pill Sage. How could she continue to stay here?
Yan Ji looked back at Ning Cheng, who still hadn't woken up. She knew that she had to leave now. The lotus jade piece she wore on her chest gradually faded. If no powerhouses came here, she wouldn't care much about it. Once a powerhouse came here, it would expose the fact that she possessed the Heavenly Fragrant Body, which would turn into a disaster.
Right at this moment, an extremely swift and fierce killing intent blasted over. Yan Ji had experienced too many life and death situations. Therefore, when this killing intent shot over, she felt her scalp tingling. At this moment, she didn't have time to think about anything else. Condensing all her Celestial Essence, she turned into a shadow and escaped from the side.
"Boom ….." As the killing intent exploded, Yan Ji's Spiritual Consciousness swept over and found that it was a sword light. The sword light then cut through the group of people she was in. A mist of blood splashed out. Except for some cultivators with powerful cultivations, most of them disappeared under this sword light.
Yu Caifeng, who was still sighing a moment ago, had already disappeared without a trace. Apparently, he had fallen under this sword light.
The few people who survived were like birds startled by the mere twang of a bow. How could they dare to look back and say anything? Instead, they stimulated all their Celestial Essence and rushed away.
Yan Ji also stimulated her Celestial Essence and almost brought out her most powerful escape technique to rush out. In the face of such a ruthless person who killed without any reason, what else could she do except to escape as soon as possible?
"Brother Xiong, didn't you just say that the Yin Yang Pill Furnace might not be in the Black White Mountain Range, but in the Furnace Sand?" A man wearing a golden cultivator robe asked a male cultivator wearing a brocaded robe with a smile on his face.
After asking, he pointed to the huge gully created by the sword light and spoke, "If my sword fell down, then if there were any treasures underneath, then there would definitely be some aura overflowing. But the truth is that there was nothing but mud underneath."
From the looks of it, he was the one who created that sword light. His purpose was to see if there were any treasures underneath. As for the hundreds of people he killed, he didn't even bother to mention it.
The man called Brother Xiong stared in the direction that Yan Ji escaped and frowned, "Why do I feel that something is wrong?"
