Sure enough, what my sister said was true wisdom.
Don't mind being used by others. That means you still have value. When you lose your value, that's the saddest thing.
Ding Ning quickly descended and secretly heaved a sigh of relief. The gray shadow gave him too much pressure, so he had no chance of winning. He could only feign civility.
Fortunately, he still had value, so the gray shadow didn't kill him, giving him room to maneuver and a chance of survival in a hopeless situation.
Although he wasn't afraid of the strange red wind at all, to prevent the gray shadow from being suspicious, he still injected spiritual power into the ancient mirror.
With the injection of spiritual power, the ancient mirror emitted a gray light that enveloped him. The strange red wind blew on his body, but it didn't cause him any harm.
Ding Ning's heart moved, and his eyes revealed a thoughtful look. He had a bold guess about why the gray shadow didn't dare to go down Broken Soul Cliff himself even though he had the ancient mirror to protect him.
He found that this ancient mirror actually had the magical effect of isolating any nomological power, but it couldn't isolate natural elements. For example, the strange red wind wasn't obstructed at all, but the chaotic nomological power had been isolated outside, so it didn't cause any harm to people.
But the gray shadow still didn't dare to go down Broken Soul Cliff. Did this mean that he wasn't afraid of the chaotic nomological power, but the strange red wind?
Without the chaotic nomological power, the strange red wind didn't have any power to cause harm to humans, so why would the gray shadow be afraid?
This made Ding Ning's mind go wild, and he instantly understood the key point. The gray shadow wasn't an ordinary person. It could even be said that it wasn't a real existence, but a projection in a distant plane.
It seemed normal for a projection to be afraid of the wind, but even if the gray shadow was a projection, it was the projection of an Immortal Emperor level expert, a projection with cultivation power. How could it be afraid of the wind?
Ding Ning's eyes flickered. Combining the information that the gray shadow unintentionally revealed, he quickly came to a conclusion. The gray shadow's projection in the Three Realms couldn't exist for a long time. Although it wasn't afraid of the wind, the wind could speed up his dissipation. So, he didn't go down himself, but let the gray shadow do it for him.
This could very well be Gray Shadow's fatal weakness. When he thought of this, Ding Ning's spirits were lifted, and a cold light flashed through his eyes.
Although he didn't have a good impression of the Human Emperor, he was still the guardian of the Human Realm. An outsider from the Human Realm dared to cross the border and kill the guardian of the Human Realm. This was a provocation to the entire Human Realm and also a disgrace to the Human Realm.
As a member of the Mortal Dimension, he naturally wouldn't watch idly by as the Xeno-race acted unscrupulously in the Mortal Dimension. Not to mention that he knew very well in his heart that the grey figure would absolutely not let him off, and once he obtained the Mortal Emperor Crown, the grey figure would surely kill him casually.
Since war could not be avoided, Ding Ning naturally had to strike first and kill him by surprise. Er, no, it was more appropriate to say that it was better to let him dissipate.
He knew very well that a projection required Spiritual Energy to be condensed, and if it was forcefully dispersed, it would definitely cause a certain amount of damage to the original body.
It was an Immortal Emperor, an Immortal Realm expert wouldn't be easily injured, but once he was injured, he wouldn't be able to recover in a short period of time. This could also be considered as a disguised form of revenge for the Human Emperor.
However, to disperse the projection, and also not completely infuriate him, making him release a power that exceeded the limits of the Human Realm and cause a devastating disaster to the Human Realm, he still needed to make a good plan.
"Ah!"
Ding Ning's thoughts turned quickly, and he quickly set up a plan. After reaching the bottom of the cliff, he suddenly withdrew the spiritual energy he poured into the ancient mirror, and put it into the Water Space. He pretended to let out a miserable scream like a pig being slaughtered.
"Boy, what's going on?" Gray Shadow was shocked, and he stood at the edge of the cliff and asked loudly anxiously. His voice actually passed through the layers of strange wind and reached the bottom of the cliff.
This was because he found that the ancient mirror that was connected to his mind was actually cut off by a strange power, as if the ancient mirror didn't exist in this space.
This discovery gave him a great shock. After all, he didn't think that the cowardly boy would dare to play with him. He only thought that there was another world under the cliff, and that was why he cut off the mental connection between him and the ancient mirror.
When he found that Ding Ning didn't reply for a long time, this made him even more certain of his guess. There must be another mystery under the cliff, and there might be a great opportunity.
"Damn it, I should have thought of this earlier. For such a low-level plane to have the Chaotic Astral Wind, this in itself is not normal. There must be some kind of great opportunity under the cliff, maybe it's a cave left behind by the Chaos Celestial Lord. If I can obtain the inheritance of the Chaos Celestial Lord, I will definitely be able to use it to break through to the Immortal Celestial Lord."
Gray Shadow's imagination ran wild, and his heart was burning with passion, but then he was filled with regret. If he had thought of this earlier, he wouldn't have let that ant do it for him. He would have risked using up the power of his mind to go down and obtain the inheritance that was likely to be left behind by the Chaos Celestial Lord.
This was because he knew very well how precious the inheritance left behind by a peerless powerhouse like the Chaos Celestial Lord was. Even a Celestial Lord powerhouse would covet it, and this kind of inheritance usually didn't care about the inheritor's own strength or cultivation, only whether they were fated or not.
So, even though he didn't care about that ant-like boy, who could guarantee that he wouldn't get lucky and obtain the inheritance first?
"Kid, it's fine if you're tactful, I'll leave your corpse intact. But if you dare to be presumptuous and try to snatch my fortune, then you can just wait to be turned into ashes, and your body and soul will be destroyed."
Gray Shadow gritted his teeth and swore to himself. His eyes flashed with a frightening light, and he jumped off the cliff without hesitation. He was going all out for the opportunity.
However, without the protection of the ancient mirror, the strange red wind made him miserable. When he finally landed at the bottom of the cliff, his figure was so illusory that it seemed as if a gust of wind could blow it away. His strength had also dropped significantly, falling to around the peak of the Divine Transformation Realm.
"Hey, there's actually no one?"
The bottom of the cliff was not big, only less than two kilometers in radius. There were no obstacles except for some weeds and gravel, so Gray Shadow could naturally see it at a glance. He didn't find the Human Emperor's Crown or Ding Ning.
But the more it was like this, the more excited he became. This meant that his guess was right. There must be other mysteries here, and it was very likely that it was a Celestial Lord's cave that he hadn't found yet.
Although his cultivation had dropped, he didn't care. It was just a low-level plane, and the strongest person here was only at the peak of the Divine Transformation Realm, which was the same as his current strength.
In the same realm, he was confident that no one in this low-level plane could be his opponent. This was a psychological advantage that came from a high-level plane.
After all, the level of cultivation methods, combat skills, magical powers, and divine weapons were important factors that determined one's combat strength. How could a low-level plane have any decent cultivation methods or combat skills?
Ding Ning, who was hiding in the corner, held his breath and completely restrained his aura. He operated the All Creation Breathing Technique to the extreme and became one with heaven and earth.
With a boom, Ding Ning's brain roared. Comprehension of the laws poured into his mind like a tide, making him dumbfounded and dumbfounded.
No matter how he thought about it, he couldn't understand why the Human Emperor's Crown, which he had clearly stored in the Water Space, would suddenly appear in his sea of consciousness and explode. The Human Emperor's lifetime comprehension of the laws of heaven and earth poured into his mind like a forced duck, almost causing his sea of consciousness to explode.
If it was in the past, he would definitely be ecstatic. This was all the comprehension and experience of the laws that the Human Emperor had accumulated over the countless years. It was enough to save him at least thousands or even tens of thousands of years of comprehension.
But now, he couldn't feel happy at all. He secretly complained in his heart.
Because the inheritance of the Human Emperor's Crown was too huge, it directly communicated with heaven and earth, causing the laws around him to be affected and become restless. It even forced him out of his invisible state, and he just happened to stare at the alarmed gray shadow.
Although the inheritance was good, it wasn't something that could be completely digested overnight. Even if the cultivation of the gray shadow had dropped because he had forcefully resisted the strange red wind, it was still not something that he could contend with at present.
He had wanted to hide himself and look for an opportunity to launch a sneak attack on Gray Shadow. Now, this damned inheritance had to appear at this moment, exposing him directly in front of Gray Shadow. He had no choice but to face him head-on.
"Kid, obediently hand over the inheritance of the Chaos Celestial Lord."
The gray shadow sensed the various auras of the laws around Ding Ning and subconsciously thought that he had obtained the inheritance of the Chaos Celestial Lord. His eyes instantly turned red, and he roared at the top of his voice.
What? The inheritance of the Chaos Celestial Lord? What the hell was the Chaos Celestial Lord?
Ding Ning was dumbfounded. Before he could figure out what the gray shadow meant, he was shocked to find that the gray shadow had suddenly appeared in front of him out of nowhere and had reached out to grab his throat.
A strong sense of life-or-death crisis made his hair stand on end, and his scalp tingled. He could feel that the gray shadow really wanted to kill him. He hurriedly circulated his Qi, and his face turned red. He pretended to have difficulty breathing, and said with difficulty, "Se … Senior … Don't be rash. Let go of me. I'll hand it over. I'll hand it over now."
Although the gray shadow didn't let go of his neck, he loosened his grip. He said coldly, "Don't talk nonsense. Hand it over now, or die."
"Cough, cough, cough …"
Ding Ning coughed violently. He looked at the gray figure's face that was constantly squirming in the gray mist and could not be seen clearly. With a trembling and bitter expression, he said, "Elder, let go of me. I will hand it over now. The inheritance is in my pocket."
"You dare to fool me? How can the Chaos Celestial Lord's inheritance be in your pocket? "
The gray shadow grabbed Ding Ning's throat with force and lifted him in front of him. He glared at him with eyes full of anger, and said furiously through gritted teeth.
Now was the time.
Ding Ning's bitter face suddenly changed, and a piercingly cold light flashed in his eyes. The Hand of Fate came out of his body, and his fist turned into a finger. With lightning speed, he suddenly stabbed at the gray shadow's heart.
Pu!
There was a soft sound, but Ding Ning's heart sank. He could clearly feel that although his finger had stabbed into the heart, he didn't feel like he had stabbed into flesh or blood.
"Bastard, you're courting death."
The gray shadow was shocked. When he realized what was going on, he immediately flew into a rage. His eyes shone with a murderous light, and he tightened his grip on Ding Ning's throat, wanting to break his laryngeal bones.
Ding Ning scolded himself for being so stupid. He had actually overlooked that the gray shadow was only a projection, and not a body of flesh and blood. Even if the Hand of Fate had stabbed his heart, it wouldn't be able to kill him. This long-planned attack was just a waste of effort.
"It's better for you to die, Broken Mountains and Rivers."
Since the matter had already been exposed, and the gray shadow wanted to kill him, he naturally wouldn't sit and wait for death. His right hand turned into a knife, and he directly chopped at the gray shadow's hand that was strangling his throat.
Sizzle!
With this palm knife, a deep crack was forcefully cut open in the space, and like black lightning, it cut toward the gray shadow's hand.
