Have to say, the timing of this Pu Guang He was just right, not even waiting for half a moment. If it was any other person, even if he was in possession of a similar seal, it would be extremely rare for them to seize this kind of opportunity like Pei Guang He.
“Thump.” The cultivator at the True Condensation 7th Level finally could not control his body, and fell into the blood pool, when he fell into the blood pool, it was the same as before, just a few blood bubbles popped through the surface before it became calm once again.
“Boom” a huge exploding sound could be heard, as the big black seal which was still expanding till now suddenly exploded. This powerful explosion forced the blood from the blood pool to rise up like a blood pillar.
Ning Cheng who had used his 7 Pleiades Ice Needle to attack the grey robed man, blasted out a punch. This was not ordinary punch, but was the punch filled with his comprehension of the Killing Intent of the Great Axe.
This Axe Fist filled with Killing Intent directly arrived and exploded on to the body of Yu Xing in a straight line.
Yu Xing who had just successfully sneak attacked that cultivator at the True Condensation 7th Level, did not have enough time to call back his Flying Sword, as such was stuck by Ning Cheng’s sneak attack. He absolutely had no chance of escape, and was directly hit on his back by the incoming Axe Fist.
As blood spurted out from his waist, Yu Xing staggered towards the direction of the blood pool, Ning Cheng immediately followed up, he did not wait for Yu Xing to start his counter attack, and immediately punched out once again.
Yu Xing’s heart was completely filled with hate, he did not think that Ning Cheng would react so quickly, moreover he was attacking him unceasingly, and had not attacked the grey robed person at all. Him wanting to take back his Artefact to block Ning Cheng’s attack was already very unrealistic, the only route for him was to enter the blood pool or be killed by Ning Cheng’s attack.
“Splash” Yu Xing did not think anymore and jumped into the blood pool.
Just when Yu Xing had jumped into the blood pool, Ning Cheng brought out his real Artefact, the broken Spear that he had mounted on his back, bringing it out, he immediately casted out 22 Ice Spear Shadows, these 22 Ice Spear Shadows immediately connected with each other in just a twinkling of an eye and formed an ice net.
Ning Cheng did not wait for even half a moment, he was very clear about what would happen if he did not hurry to find a way out. Now that the Artefact of the cultivator at the True Condensation 7th Level had blown up, severely injuring the grey robed cultivator, if he did not seize this opportunity, then he really would be an idiot.
The cloths of the grey robed cultivator had already disappeared, revealing his skinny stature. There was a huge bloody hole on the left side of his chest, even his face was completely burnt black by the explosion of the black seal Artefact. With no cloths to cover his body, Ning Cheng could clearly see, that this grey robed cultivator really did not have any legs.
If he did have them, then Ning Cheng’s 7 Pleiades Ice Needle and the explosion from the huge Black Seal Artefact of the cultivator at the True Condensation 7th Level, then he would have at most have suffered only some minor injuries. But at the moment, not only was seriously injured, but he also could not force out the 7 Pleiades Ice Needle in him.
If Ning Cheng did not continue to attack him, then he would sooner or later be able to extract the 7 Pleiades Ice Needle, but with Ning Cheng’s precise attack timing, he did not even get a shred of a chance.
The grey robed man had just raised up the hand that had the round shield, before he immediately stopped. Because the 7 Pleiades Ice Needle was still moving around in his body’s Meridians, which made the True Essence in his body was extremely slow, at the same time he felt his Dantian finally detonate.
Because of 7 Pleiades Ice Needle attack on his Dantian, the Dantian of the grey robed cultivator instantly turned to ash. It was at this time that Ning Cheng’s 22 Ice Spear Shadows completely fell on that person’s body.
“Ka Ka….”
An intermittent breaking sound was transmitted, as the grey robed cultivator under the continuous and precise attacks of the 7 Pleiades Ice Needle and the 36 Ice Spear Technique turned into an icicle, moreover just as his body turned into ice sculpture it immediately burst apart.
Even in the instant before his death he still could not believe what had happened when he looked at Ning Cheng, in his eyes, although Ning Cheng was the first to come here, but the cultivation of Ning Cheng was the lowest, and he had thought that he would not have to care too much about him. In his final moment, he actually died at the hands of a cultivator who had the lowest cultivation out of all of them, it was not because of anything else, but his own negligence in thinking that he was the weakest among the rest. Not much of an interest, but still a lot of interest.
Not only that, he had used his most powerful attack, not at the beginning like the others, but at the last moment to give him a fatal attack.
“Crash” the grey robed person turned into a pile of ice shards not larger than small stones.
Ning Cheng felt that the surrounding pressure began to lighten up, and sat down on the ground feeling very weak. At this moment he was very grateful to the cultivator at the True Condensation 7th Level. if not for him blowing up his Artefact before dying, he would have definitely not been able to kill that grey robed person.

After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Ning Cheng finally restored almost 90% of his True Essence with the help of the Spirit Stones.
The red Flying Sword that had fallen into the blood pool, Ning Cheng did not intend to get it back, he just raised his hands and recalled the 7 Pleiades Ice Needle. He did not know where this grey robed person had hidden his things, as he did not have a Storage Bag nor did he have any other storage devices.
But Ning Cheng did not care much about the things of this grey robed cultivator, as this fellow used the blood of others for his cultivation practice, even if he found something, he knew that it would not be something that he would want to partake in.
Up until this moment, he did not have the opportunity to look around the place he was in.
This place had an area of several hundred square meters, but the entire surrounding walls were shrouded by an Array Formation, making it appear indistinct. In the middle of this place was the giant pool of blood, just above this pool of blood was a bloody mist and a platform at the centre of the pool, which also made him not see the blood pool clearly. Using his Spiritual Sense to sweep through, he found that it was immediately blocked by an Array Formation.
Ning Cheng carefully looked in all the directions, and confirmed that other than the blood pool, there did not seem to have any other way out. The path that he had used earlier to come in had already been sealed off by the grey robed man, and unless he had a Talisman like that of Pei Guang He, he would not be able to leave this place.
The only hope he had at this moment was the blood pool, otherwise the only other thing that he could do was to attack the Array Formation. Not to mention that Ning Cheng not only could not understand this Array Formation, even if he could understand it, he would not dare to attack it indiscriminately.
As for the blood pool, Ning Cheng did not want to go in, when that cultivator in the True Condensation 7th Level entered the blood pool, only a few blood bubbles rose to the surface before popping, other than that there was no movement in the blood pool and it was completely calm, it gave a really creepy feeling to Ning Cheng.
Ning Cheng hovered on top of the blood pool for a few moments on his Flying Sword, and made sure that it was no longer trying to suck him in, once he confirmed it, he directly jumped from the Flying Sword and onto the middle of the platform on which the grey robed person was sitting on.
With a wave of his
hand, the residual bones on the platform were thrown into the blood pool.
Then Ning Cheng using the Spear in his hands knocked on the platform, which emitted a clear ‘ding ding’ sound.
Is it hollow inside? Ning Cheng immediately became excited, although he did not care about the things of this grey robed man, but he did not know for how long this grey robed man had stayed in this place. Since these ruins were genuine, then perhaps this grey robed man had collected and stored some of the things from the ruins inside.
Ning Cheng did not spend much time pondering, and immediately started to look at the Array Formation that was traced out on the platform. He concluded that this was just a simple Sealing Array Formation, after that Ning Cheng immediately threw out several Array Flags, and made a motion of lifting his hands, which raised the cover off from this platform.
A long and narrow staircase appeared under Ning Cheng’s foot, Ning Cheng once again swept through it with his Spiritual Sense, certain that there were no problems, he started to descend the steps, while simultaneously covered the outside with the cover once again.
He did not know where this staircase leads to, but it was very long. Ning Cheng had already been descending for half an hour, before he finally got off the steps, but what was in front of him was a corridor filled with gravel. Around the surrounding corridor, there were a few glowing stones suspended in air providing a dim visibility.
Ning Cheng followed this trail and walked for almost an hour before arriving in front of a stone house with no doors.
After confirming that this stone house did not pose any danger to him, Ning Cheng then entered this stone house, sitting in the middle of this stone house was a white skeleton. He did not know for how many years had this skeleton been sitting here, but he could still feel a formidable pressure coming from it, this pressure was countless times more formidable that the pressure from the pitch black skeleton that the grey robed man had pulled out of the blood pool.
On both sides of this stone room, other than a stone table, there was only a stone picture frame. Whether it was the stone table or the stone picture frame, there was nothing on them. It was obvious that the people who had come before had already taken everything away.
As Ning Cheng approached the skeleton, he somewhat suspected that this skeleton might even be of the cultivator of the legendary Sea Opening Realm. On the ground in front of the skeleton, Ning Cheng saw a row of small words, ‘those who want to enter my door, first kowtow 49 times’.
Not to mention that Ning Cheng did not understand much of it, even the part that he did understand, he would not kowtow 49 times to a strange skeleton for no reason at all.
Then Ning Cheng walked to wall, and with the Spear in his hands, aimed it just in front of small wordings in front of the skeleton’s foot and shot out a Spear Shadow.
“Boom”
When the Spear Shadow hit the ground it was aimed at with a boom, it immediately threw up an innumerable amounts of crushed stones, the skeleton also immediately broke apart suddenly, and a dense cluster of white bone arrows shot out towards him. Ning Cheng was shocked, and immediately punched out with his Axe Fist, it looked like these white bone arrows were countless years old, as such after being struck by the Axe Fist of Ning Cheng, they immediately lost their momentum and fell in front of him, they simply could not even hurt Ning Cheng a bit.
Ning Cheng heaved a sigh, and then looked at the skeleton, that was lying, now broken, on the ground. It seems that him blasting open the ground, and the skeleton falling to the ground, did seem to have some sort of connection. But Ning Cheng was not much disappointed with the outcome, when he had come in, he knew that the first people who came in would have already cleared out the place.
At this time, a piece of the roof fell down, showing a huge hole in the roof, as yellow sand trickled down through this gaping hole in the roof.
Ning Cheng was not surprised at this but rather he was happy, since there was yellow sand falling through the roof above, then it meant that he was definitely below the Thunder Fall Desert, all he had to do was to follow this sand upstream, and he would finally arrive above in the desert.
A sharp cry came from the distant corridor, Ning Cheng immediately realized that this cry was issued by the young girl king called Xiu Xiu. He did not know how this woman entered this corridor, or if the cry was coming from someplace else. If she had entered this corridor, then it meant that she had also come here after opening the Sealing Array Formation on the platform of the blood pool.
But Ning Cheng did not want to go back, these ruins were very vast and spread out over a large area, moreover when he had come in, he had also felt a fresh breeze which did not feel right. These ruins were very strange, he did not want to continue with his idea to explore the ruins, at least not now since he found yellow sand falling from above.
Before when Ning Cheng had fired off his Spear at the ground, it was because he suddenly felt that something was wrong. He was already now a Tier 2 Array Formation Master, so he could make out that there was a Concealment Array Formation on one of the crushed stones. He immediately picked up that crushed stone, and performed a few hand seals with his hand, and immediately an exquisite jade seal appeared in his hands. this exquisite jade seal was engraved with the words, Lan Yi Country.
“Whoa….” With more and more sand falling, Ning Cheng did not think anymore and immediately put the jade seal into his Storage Bag, grabbing the Spear he, at once, rushed into the falling sand.
Under the operation of his True Essence, Ning Cheng began swimming upstream through the sand.
One hour, two hours….
Even after quite a while passed, Ning Cheng was still moving upstream in the sand, at this moment Ning Cheng felt like he was still at the bottom of the sea of sand, with the end nowhere in sight.
Fortunately, Ning Cheng was already a cultivator in the True Condensation Realm, otherwise if it was before, he would not be even able to breathe and would have suffocated to death a long time ago. After almost half a day, he stopped and rested a bit to restore his True Essence.
After travelling for another half a day, Ning Cheng became aware that the pressure on the tip of the Spear was also loosening up, the next moment he then felt the pressure on his head also loosen up considerably. After the loose yellow sand finally rolled over, Ning Cheng gave out a long sigh, as he finally arrived on top of the desert once again.
Ning Cheng did not stay at that place to rest for even half a moment, before he immediately chose a direction and quickly departed from that place. He wanted to leave this area as fast as possible, then find a safe place to clean himself up, and to quietly replenish his True Essence.
After travelling for an hour, Ning Cheng finally found a withered poplar tree, and decided to rest at that place.
Before deciding to rest, Ning Cheng swept out with his Spiritual Sense, at this time Ning Cheng could already use his Spiritual Sense to examine several tens of miles of area around him.
At this moment, a dishevelled female cultivator emerged in his peripheral vision of his Spiritual Sense, this cultivator’s footsteps were staggering, it was obvious that she did not have much physical strength.
Luo Fei? Ning Cheng almost instantaneously recognised this female cultivator, this female cultivator unexpectedly turned out to be Ji Luo Fei.
Wasn’t Ji Luo Fei in the Hua Continent’s Falling Star Academy? How could it be possible for her to appear in the Thunder Fall Desert?
Ning Cheng did not think of anything else and immediately rushed out towards her. And in just a few short breaths, Ning Cheng already arrived in front of Ji Luo Fei.
When Ji Luo Fei saw a silhouette of a person rushing towards her, she almost instinctively raised the Flying Sword in her hand and pointed it towards Ning Cheng.
Ning Cheng simply lifted his hand, and lightly brushed away the Flying Sword in Ji Luo Fei’s hand. He did not wait for Ji Luo Fei to make the next move, as Ning Cheng directly grabbed Ji Luo Fei’s wrist a
nd said, “Luo Fei, just what exactly is going on with you, I am Ning Cheng.”
“Didn’t you already die?” When Ji Luo Fei glanced at the face of Ning Cheng, the crazy look in her eyes immediately calmed down, and she immediately fainted in the arms of Ning Cheng. Ning Cheng immediately took out the Spiritual Qi rich water that he had collected from the Spiritual Essence Pool, and fed it to Ji Luo Fei. Although his Storage Bag contained many pills, as these pills were his spoils from the various battles, but because he did not know what these pills exactly were, so he did not dare to take them out.
Although Ji Luo Fei at the moment did not have much strength in her, but as long as she rested for while she should be able to wake up by herself.
Ning Cheng took out a rope, and placing Ji Luo Fei securely on his back with the help of the rope, he decided to change places and patiently wait for Ji Luo Fei to recover her strength.
Ji Luo Fei was now already a student of the Falling Star Academy, but for such a person to rush into the desert by themselves, it would certainly involve some major matter. If she had not met him on time, then as long as she was to encounter any one of the desert whirlpools, she would be immediately gobbled up.
Ning Cheng once again changed directions, as he simultaneously picked up his speed.
Under the stirring of some of his True Essence, Ji Luo Fei finally woke up. When Ji Luo Fei opened her eyes, she saw that she was being carried on the back of a male cultivator, she immediately wanted to pull out her Flying Sword hanging from her waist to send out a chop from it. However just as she was about to pull her Flying Sword that was on her body, she immediately remembered seeing a familiar face before she fainted.
