Chapter 377 -375: Half True, Half False
Chigua Island.
The Black Tide has already spread to the Main Peak. The Island Master Cave Mansion has been submerged by the Black Tide, but its Cave Mansion Restrictions are still flickering with a faint glow, indicating that the Array has not yet been breached, and Huang Yihan’s daughter might still be saved.
“Ga~~~”
Above the mountain waist, shadows surged into the sky. The Red Demons that had attacked Chigua Island, upon detecting Ning Daoran’s arrival, let out sharp cries and rushed to attack.
Ning Daoran raised his hand and drew the Qiushui Sword. He poured Chaos Spiritual Power into the blade and instantly unleashed a curved Liangyi Sword Technique intent. In an instant, several Red Demons were sliced in half at the waist. Chaos Fire quickly spread along the wounds, turning them to ashes.
“Young Friend Ning!”
In the air, Lin Tiannan’s figure teleported from over ten miles away directly to the scene. What he saw was at least a thousand Red Demons rampaging on Chigua Island.
“Ga ga ga~~~”
When they sensed the Mana fluctuations of the Nascent Soul Cultivator in the air, a group of Red Demons simultaneously looked up, their expressions exhilarated as if they saw a delicious feast being served, and then they rushed towards Lin Tiannan without hesitation.
Ning Daoran frowned. No wonder the Divinity Transformation and Nascent Soul Cultivators of the Eastern Wasteland Cultivation World were reluctant to face these Red Demons at the Black Tide front; although Nascent Soul Stage could rely on their Mana to slay Red Demons, in the eyes of the demons, they were also delectable delicacies. Once surrounded by a large number of Red Demons, the death rate of Nascent Soul Stage was equally high.
“A bunch of beasts!”
Lin Tiannan descended from the sky, pointed with his finger, and instantly a golden treasure sword burst forth, crossing the sky and momentarily dispersing a golden dharma image. In an instant, dozens of Red Demons burst apart, turning into constantly vanishing fragments.
Although Red Demons could absorb and be immune to Five Elements Magical Power, as long as the Five Elements Magical Power was strong enough, strong to the extent that the Red Demons could not handle it, it naturally could cause them to explode and die.
“Senior Lin!”
Ning Daoran wielding the Qiushui Sword, frowned and said: “Please cover me, Senior. The person inside this Cave Mansion is Island Master Huang Yihan’s daughter, Huang Yiyi. I’ll rescue her now.”
“Alright!”
Lin Tiannan elegantly descended, his golden treasure sword revolving around him, continuously striking the Red Demons.
This treasure sword exuded the aura of a Spiritual Treasure. It was Lin Tiannan’s lifebound Golden Phoenix Sword, a divine sword known far and wide throughout the whole Cultivation World of Yunzhou!
“Break!”
Ning Daoran raised his hand and struck out Heavenly Book Characters, instantly breaking through the loosely structured Cave Mansion. He leaped into the Cave Mansion and saw a young girl in a beige long dress, holding a Spiritual Artifact, her beautiful eyes filled with panic as she noticed Ning Daoran before her.
This girl was indeed Huang Yihan’s daughter, Huang Yiyi, whom Ning Daoran had met twice before. At only eighteen years old, she already reached Qi Refinement Ninth Level, deeply loved by Huang Yihan.
“Yiyi!”
Ning Daoran seriously said: “I am your Uncle Ning!”
“Ah?!”
Huang Yiyi’s tears rolled down instantly: “Uncle Ning, my dad…”
“Yes, he has already sacrificed himself.”
Ning Daoran raised a hand and enveloped Huang Yiyi’s body with a stream of Evergreen Technique Power, saying: “He asked me to rescue you before his passing. Let’s go, I’ll take you out of here!”
“Uncle Ning…”
Huang Yiyi instantly cried bitterly. Regardless of whether previously lusting after Sui Zhuyue or later ruthlessly slaying Nangong Rou, as a father, Huang Yihan was clearly competent, sharing a deep affection with his daughter.
“Let’s go!”
Ning Daoran, along with Huang Yiyi, left the Cave Mansion only to see Lin Tiannan being surrounded and attacked by thousands of Red Demons outside. Although his Mana could crush the Red Demons, their sheer numbers put him in somewhat of a difficult situation momentarily.
“Senior Lin!”
Ning Daoran swung his sword: “Perhaps we could seek refuge on Liuhua Island, these Red Demons should not be confronted directly.”
With that said, his sword easily cut down dozens of Red Demons!
“…”
Lin Tiannan was slightly startled, astonished by Ning Daoran’s move. The stroke he swung was undoubtedly mysterious, filled with the essence of the Liangyi Sect’s Liangyi Sword Technique, but what surprised Lin Tiannan more was that when Ning Daoran’s sword struck the Red Demons, they didn’t absorb any Mana at all and were directly killed!
Such an easy slaying of Red Demons was the first Lin Tiannan had ever witnessed.
Indeed, just as he had speculated before, this Flowing Flower Island Master whom he had appointed held significant secrets. Yet, it was not surprising, someone repeatedly visited by Shen Luoyan was undoubtedly no ordinary figure.
“Go!”
Lin Tiannan swung his sword, his Mana surged, similarly crushing dozens of Red Demons, and along with Ning Daoran, they transformed into two streaks of light heading straight for Liuhua Island. Just as they were about to enter the Barrier, Ning Daoran flicked his sleeve, opening a gap in the Array and allowing them both inside the island.
“Master!”
Inside the barrier, Sui Zhuyue rushed over, her lips pursed in worry.
“I’m fine.”
Ning Daoran smiled: “Didn’t I return completely whole?”
“Mm…”
Sui Zhuyue nodded but then noticed the girl in the beige dress who had returned with him.
“Huang Yiyi?”
“Sister Zhuyue…”
Huang Yiyi had previously visited Flowing Flower Island with her father for business and had met Sui Zhuyue many times.
“It’s good that you’re okay.”
Sui Zhuyue held Huang Yiyi’s hand, and upon knowing that Huang Yihan had perished, her heart was filled with emotion.
“Zhuyue, take Yiyi to settle down in the Cave Mansion. City Lord Lin and I still have some matters to discuss.”
“Yes!”
Only then did Sui Zhuyue realize that the person who had entered the Array with Ning Daoran was actually the Nascent Soul True Monarch City Lord of Kunpeng Immortal City. Her thoughts had been entirely on the Young Master, and she hadn’t paid attention to this Nascent Soul, feeling slightly embarrassed, she bowed respectfully to Lin Tiannan.
Lin Tiannan didn’t mind at all, and walking shoulder to shoulder with Ning Daoran to the edge of the Barrier, they looked at the Red Demon, who was still fiercely attacking the Array. He frowned and communicated via voice transmission, “Although the Red Demon is still attacking the Array, the Black Tide does not seem to be spreading anymore. Why is this?”
Ning Daoran, of course, would not mention that he had ventured into the origin of the Black Tide and sealed the crack in the other dimension. This was too shocking and could easily make him a part of the inner vortex of influential figures in the Eastern Wasteland Cultivation World. Given that he was currently only in the Golden Core Middle Stage, he should not get involved in the Nascent Soul Level vortex, as it could lead to an early demise.
“I’m not sure.”
He furrowed his brows, saying, “This Black Tide suddenly appeared; could it also suddenly disappear?”
“Absolutely not.”
Lin Tiannan replied, “According to the historical records of the Eastern Wasteland Cultivation World, every occurrence of the Black Tide lasts at least for dozens or even hundreds of years. It won’t recede on its own. Young Friend Ning, is this your first encounter with the Black Tide?”
“Not really.”
Ning Daoran shook his head, “The City Lord should know my background. I come from the Chaotic Sect in Qingzhou. Decades ago the founder of Chaotic Sect, Lin Qing’er, and my senior sister Jiang Yu led our sect to participate in the border battle and perished in the Black Tide. I have visited the Black Tide once decades ago and had some contact with the Red Demon.”
“So…”
Lin Tiannan narrowed his eyes, “What kind of method did you employ that could avoid the advantages of the Red Demon and achieve a deadly strike?”
“To speak of it, I wouldn’t want the City Lord to laugh.”
Ning Daoran said, “Initially, I caught a Red Demon and sealed it within a Magical Treasure. After years of study, I finally discovered a method that transcends the Five Elements. It’s not a guaranteed deadly strike, and it consumes a lot of Mana and Primordial Qi; it’s basically a life-for-life tactic…”
As he spoke, he revealed a look of shame.
Only telling half of the story, half true and half false, made it even more ambiguous.
“Hmm…”
Lin Tiannan pondered, “Is your method something that can be widespread? If everyone in the Eastern Wasteland Cultivation World could achieve a deadly strike on Red Demons, we wouldn’t suffer such heavy casualties.”
“It’s difficult.”
Ning Daoran said, “This method has strict requirements. One needs to be a Five Spirit Roots cultivator having a strong perception of the Five Types of Spiritual Energy. Furthermore, one needs to cultivate the five Cultivation Techniques that represent the Five Elements to perfection and blend their mysteries with insight to forge a method that transcends the Five Elements.”
…
Lin Tiannan was somewhat speechless.
It seemed indeed rigorous; firstly, possessing Five Spirit Roots is extraordinary. Among the cultivators he knew, which Golden Core or Nascent Soul stage cultivator didn’t possess Top Three Qualities Spirit Roots, not to mention during the Foundation Establishment Stage, it was rare to find someone with Five Spirit Roots.
“Could it be that Young Friend Ning possesses Five Spirit Roots?”
“Exactly.”
Ning Daoran seemed a bit embarrassed, “When I left my village, I was just a Ninth Grade Mixed Spirit Root, not even comparable to Five Spirit Roots. Fortunately, later on, I cultivated the Evergreen Technique and achieved Mid-grade in the wood-fire dual attribute roots.”
“I see…”
Lin Tiannan felt a bit apologetic; it was he who had asked too many questions, and Ning Daoran had revealed such critical personal details.
“These Red Demons ultimately are calamities.”
Lin Tiannan mused, “The two of us together should strike and wipe them out in batches?”
“That’s exactly what I intend!”
Thus, two figures rushed out of the Array, and after a bout of fierce bombardment that slaughtered hundreds of Red Demons, they returned to replenish their Mana and then re-entered the fray to eliminate the Red Demons.
After several repetitions, the Red Demons on the Three Flowing Flower Islands had been completely exterminated, not a single one spared.
And the Loose Cultivators on Flowing Flower Island greatly enjoyed the spectacle; for most, it was their first encounter with the Red Demons from the Black Tide, and even more astonishing was witnessing the Southern Heaven Palace Master, Lin Tiannan, employing his Fourth-tier Spiritual Treasure, the Golden Phoenix Sword!
Of course, many were also amazed at the combat power of Flowing Flower Island Master Ning Daoran. The legends were indeed true: even though he was just in the Golden Core Middle Stage, he truly possessed the fighting power to collaborate with a Nascent Soul stage cultivator!
And his partner was none other than Lin Tiannan, a Nascent Soul Middle Stage and a great figure renowned throughout the Eastern Wasteland Cultivation World!
…
Around noon.
A fleet of Flying Boats appeared from the west, with the army of cultivators from Kunpeng Immortal City arriving belatedly.

“Palace Master.”
Chen Liang bowed respectfully, “The Black Tide has begun to recede for unknown reasons. Should I take some men to investigate?”
“Yes.”
Lin Tiannan nodded, “I’ll return to Immortal City first. You must remember, there might still be Red Demons in the Black Tide. Wait until it has completely dissipated before investigating, to avoid any damage.”
