Chapter 628: Chapter 626: A Brick in the Cultivation World, Wherever It’s Needed, There It’s Moved

"Cackle cackle cackle~~~"

With the death of the True Spirit Empress, the Red Demons and Blood Demons in the vortex, as if losing their backbone, fled frantically towards the outside world. Fortunately, their numbers weren’t large, so it would be no problem for the cultivators of Guiru City to hunt them down one by one.

Ning Daoran didn’t pay attention to it and instead floated down to the bottom of the abyss. There, he saw an ice crystal with a diameter of about ten feet lying on the ground, sealed within it was True Monarch Liu Yun.

This extraordinary Human Clan Array Path cultivator had been frozen and lost consciousness. Although her aura and Divine Soul were still there, they were no longer active.

Ning Daoran had never seen such a method of self-ice-sealing, and dared not do anything reckless, so he summoned a strand of Mana to carry the ice crystal on his shoulder and said with a calm smile, "Fellow Taoist Liu Yun, you understand the consequences of wandering off alone now? Let’s see if you dare to venture into the wilderness by yourself again to establish a Cave Mansion in the future!"

Saying this, he was about to leave.

"Hmm?"

However, just as he was about to leave, his Divine Soul sensed a slight movement in the earth’s veins.

Suddenly, Ning Daoran halted mid-air, turned around, and released his Nascent Soul Divine Sense, beginning a frantic exploration of the vein at the bottom of the Demon Nest. This vein was like a complex network of tree roots, sprawling over an area of several tens of miles and converging on a robust earth vein.

The earth vein was saturated with Demonic Qi, and there was even some death energy concealed within it.

Ning Daoran extended his Divine Sense over two hundred miles before slowly retracting it, his brows tightly furrowed. The Demonic Qi-filled earth vein extended to a mysterious place, where Ning Daoran’s Nascent Soul Divine Sense was isolated and unable to probe further.

Moreover, the earth vein itself possessed isolation abilities. Ning Daoran couldn’t detect it from the surface with his Nascent Soul Divine Sense; if he hadn’t reached the depths of the vortex, he probably wouldn’t have discovered it either.

So, could this earth vein be hiding some significant secret?

Ning Daoran didn’t know, nor did he care; rescuing True Monarch Liu Yun was a priority now!

"Little Bai, Old Lu, let’s go!"

He carried the ice crystal and soared into the sky!

There was still fighting above. True Monarch Du’e had summoned the Seven Treasures Heavenly Umbrella, capturing a group of Blood Demons within it, torturing them repeatedly with lightning, frost, and more. He seemed to be quite enjoying himself.

"Junior Brother Ning, are you alright?"

True Monarch Du’e asked with concern.

"Fellow Daoist Ning!"

The Jade Marrow Immortal, who was frantically slaughtering Red Demons with a Low Grade Spirit Treasure Flying Sword, also turned her head joyfully. Not long ago, she had inspected the battle below with her Divine Sense and thought Ning Daoran was about to die down there.

For her, the Blood Demons, Spirit Rune Blood Demons, and the True Spirit Empress were all terrifying.

"I’m fine, thanks for your concern, Brother Du’e, and Yusui."

Carying the ice crystal, Ning Daoran said, "I’ve found Fellow Taoist Liu Yun, but she has frozen herself...I don’t know how to resolve it; should we return to the city and consult with City Lord Ning?"

"That sounds good!"

True Monarch Du’e ascended into the air, "I will clear the way with the Jade Marrow Immortal; let’s return to the Immortal City!"

"Let’s go!"

Little Bai and Big Stupid Deer returned to Spirit Garden Cave Heaven. Ning Daoran, True Monarch Du’e, and Jade Marrow Immortal flew away in a triangular formation once again.

...

Inside the City Lord Mansion.

Ning Tianyi changed into a set of war armor, holding a treasure sword, seemingly about to leave.

"Oh, Ning Daoran?"

He was surprised to see Ning Daoran carrying an ice crystal, accompanied by True Monarch Du’e and Jade Marrow Immortal.

"What’s going on here?"

"City Lord, look at this ice crystal." Ning Daoran put down the ice crystal.

"Fellow Taoist Liu Yun?"

Ning Tianyi recognized her immediately, "Why is Fellow Taoist Liu Yun like this?"

"The City Lord might not know."

Ning Daoran recounted the whole story.

"I see."

Ning Tianyi briefly scanned with his Divinity Transformation Divine Sense, then said with a ponderous voice, "This ice crystal was created using an Array Flag in conjunction with a Secret Technique, presumably as Fellow Taoist Liu Yun’s life-saving skill. She’s in no danger; it might be best to leave the ice crystal here under the care of specialists from the City Lord Mansion, and once she realizes it’s safe, she’ll dissolve the ice crystal and walk out on her own."

"That would be ideal."

Ning Daoran handed the ice crystal to a Nascent Soul Early Stage cultivator from the City Lord Mansion, then said, "Yusui, you’re not well-versed in Fight Techniques, perhaps you could stay in the city to help look after Fellow Taoist Liu Yun. How about it?"

"Oh..."

Although reluctant, Jade Marrow Immortal could only nod.

"Young Friend Ning."

Ning Tianyi squinted at Ning Daoran, not pointing out his small scheming, but smiled and said:

"You mentioned you rescued Fellow Taoist Liu Yun from a Black Tide Vortex, but according to my information, every vortex core is controlled by a large number of Red Demons, Blood Demons, and even Spirit Rune Blood Demons. How did you manage to rescue Fellow Taoist Liu Yun from these various demons?"

Ning Daoran realized he couldn’t keep the secret and confessed.

"City Lord might not know, I encountered demons from the Black Tide during my Golden Core Stage, spending a lot of time researching them. Eventually, I integrated a Chaos Spiritual Power with all Five Elements attributes from the Five Elements Cultivation Method. It was exactly this Chaos Spiritual Power that allowed me to move freely within the Demon Cave."

He added, "Moreover, the information the City Lord has is somewhat outdated. There’s not only Blood Demons and Spirit Rune Blood Demons in the Black Tide Vortex but also an even more formidable creature called the True Spirit Empress. It’s a Black Tide creature comparable to a Nascent Soul Middle Stage, extremely tricky. Ordinary Nascent Soul stage cultivators can’t deal with it unless they’re on par with someone like the City Lord... cough cough..."

Though Ning Tianyi was Divinity Transformation, he always publicly claimed to be Nascent Soul Late Stage, so Ning Daoran didn’t openly mention his cultivation level.

"I see..."

Ning Tianyi took a deep breath and said, "There are battles at all six vortices outside the city. Since Young Friend Ning has already resolved one of them, that’s amazing. I was about to head out; I have a task that I’d like to entrust to you. Although it’s quite perilous, Guiru City will certainly reward you heavily afterward."

"The Black Tide is an enemy to the entire Eastern Wasteland Cultivation World. Please, City Lord, speak; I, within my capacity, will not refuse!"

"Good, straightforward!"

Ning Tianyi said solemnly, "I’m about to head to a vortex on the eastern side, while the battle in the southwest vortex is dire. Longque Wanderer and Jingping True Monarch have led many cultivators into the vortex, but recently reported back that the situation is extremely difficult. Could I ask Young Friend Ning and Fellow Taoist Du’e to assist there?"

"Certainly!"

Ning Daoran nodded.

True Monarch Du’e clasped his fists, "City Lord Ning trusts me; I will, of course, do my utmost!"

"Great, let’s part ways immediately and rush to aid our respective battlefields!"

...

Several figures soared into the sky, heading in two different directions.

Jade Marrow Immortal bit her red lip, looking up with a sense of helplessness in her heart.

Though she was Nascent Soul Early Stage and usually addressed as "Senior" by others within the Immortal City, when faced with the Black Tide and the Blood Demons, Spirit Rune Blood Demons, her combat strength really came up short, incomparable to Ning Daoran or even weaker than True Monarch Du’e, a Nascent Soul Middle Stage.

Southwest, Black Tide Vortex.

The entire forest had been consumed by the Black Tide, black clouds filled the sky, and amidst these clouds, shrieks of Red Demons echoed. A large number of Golden Core Stage cultivators from Guiru City were locked in combat with these Red Demons in the clouds!

Above the clouds, spirit boats stretched horizontally, Spirit Light Cannon fire unceasingly, blooming into fiery red flowers on the ground.

But the demons in the vortex were not sitting ducks. A vast number of Red Demons, led by a few Blood Demons, surged towards the spirit boats like sparks leaping from a fire, fighting continuously. Spirit boats spiraled in the air and eventually crashed, emitting explosive booms that resonated throughout the mountains and forests.

"..."

Ning Daoran and True Monarch Du’e turned around simultaneously, each seeing the other’s solemn expression.

The Black Tide hadn’t appeared for years, yet this time when it did, the momentum was astonishingly fierce. The number of Blood Demons had noticeably increased; even Guiru Immortal City was struggling to hold them off. The newly appeared Spirit Rune Blood Demons were even more terrifying in combat, making one-on-one battles against them impossible for Human Clan’s Middle-stage Nascent Soul cultivators.

"The vortex entrance is over there!"

Ning Daoran accelerated suddenly, and said solemnly, "Old rules, Brother Du’e stands guard on the periphery. I will first enter the vortex to assess the situation; if necessary, I will send for reinforcements."

"That sounds good!"

True Monarch Du’e also wasn’t foolish. Though he was loyal, he wasn’t reckless. Ning Daoran’s strength against the Black Tide clearly far exceeded his own; it was better not to follow and cause trouble.

Ning Daoran was right; standing against Spirit Rune Blood Demons, staying cautious was advisable even for Nascent Soul Middle Stage.

Of course, the City-guarding Cultivators of Guiru City were different; they fed off the tributes of the entire Immortal City. Now that Guiru City was in danger, they were naturally obliged to fight to the death!

A few miles away, a vortex appeared, like a chilling black eye.

Above the vortex, dozens of spirit boats stretched across the sky, with cultivators continually descending from the boats into the vortex below. Meanwhile, Red Demons rushed out of the vortex, clashing with the cultivators above.

"Senior Ning!"

In the distance, a City Guarding Cultivator at Golden Core Late Stage, as if seeing a savior, pointed downward, "Senior Long Que and Senior Jingping are fighting bloodily below; our casualties are dire. Please, Senior Ning and True Monarch Du’e, come to our aid!"

"Understood!"

Ning Daoran raised the Fire God Sword, charged towards a group of Red Demons and Blood Demons, pushing them back into the abyss with Spiritual power. The nearby City Guarding Cultivators watched in awe as the bodies of the Red Demons exploded, leaving nothing behind.

"Rise!"

True Monarch Du’e unfurled the Seven Treasures Heavenly Umbrella, transforming it into a round, chaotic mist filled with lightning, thunder, frost, and furious winds, relentlessly forcing back the Red Demons and Blood Demons trying to escape!

...

"Slash!"

With one person and one sword, Ning Daoran charged into the vortex, immediately spotting the figure of a True Spirit Empress. Her blood-red dress stretched long, trailing into the abyss. She unleashed Demonic Qi and struck with a hand like white bones into the abdomen of a Human Clan cultivator, then flung him aside!

"What?"

Ning Daoran was stunned. He saw clearly, the person gravely injured and thrown aside by the True Spirit Empress was none other than Longque Wanderer!
