The Gate Of Good Fortune c1-905

  Shi Yulan also spoke up, “I have already said that I will remain with Senior Apprentice Sister Lan and become a starry skies’ wanderer. This is where we begin anew and where we part from the past, Wuming, thank you. You should escape; I hope you can achieve what you want one day.”

  Jing Wuming, on hearing those words, immediately spoke up, “How can this be? In front of these terrifying starry skies’ Spirit Devouring Rat Tide, even Heaven Seated Experts cannot escape. How will you get out?”

  “Wuming, I broke into the starry skies with a Crucible Transformation Cultivation. I have already experienced many things and even suffered a chase down by Void Exploding Golden Wasps. Yet, I am still alive and well. Do not worry and just take care of yourself. I will meet you somewhere within the universe’s starry skies. When we meet again, I will take you to meet Eldest Brother Cang Wei.” Ning Cheng spoke with a smile as he thought about the Void Exploding Golden Wasp King that was about to hatch. In the future, once he travelled the starry skies with a massive horde of Void Exploding Golden Wasps, which beastly horde would dare to encircle him, let alone kill him?

  Seeing Jing Wuming still feeling hesitant, Ning Cheng added another sentence, “Don’t be fussy like a mother-in-law; just go.”

  After he finished, Ning Cheng then trained his gaze at Xuan Yu and calmly spoke up, “Xuan Yu, I don’t care who you were before, but Wuming is my brother as such I will wish you both happiness. However, if one day I found out that you brought him harm, then no matter how big the starry skies are, no matter how wide the universe is, I will find you.”

  Xuan Yu slowly spoke to Ning Cheng, “You are indeed Wuming’s friend. He did not read you wrong. Wuming, let’s go, Lan Ya and Shi Yulan will not be coming with us.”

  She had an old mentality and knew about Jing Wuming and Shi Yulan’s history; as such, she knew that Shi Yulan would not follow her. At the same time, Lan Ya would also never leave Ning Cheng and Shi Yulan and escape alone with her.

  Jing Wuming also clearly understood the truth and spoke to Ning Cheng, “Okay, I believe you can do it. We will meet again in the future…..”

  His voice had not yet dissipated when Imperial Concubine Xuan Yu’s vague silhouette disappeared along with him without even a trace.

  “Ning Cheng, what do we do now?” After Jing Wuming and Xuan Yu left, Lan Ya immediately asked Ning Cheng.

  By this point, the entire airship had turned a lot more chaotic; at the same time, with the significant number of starry skies’ Spirit Devouring Rats pouring into the void airship, the void airship had already lost control.

  All the cultivators ended up thrown into the middle of a chaotic mess. Everyone wanted to rush out; however, only a few could manage to rush out.

  The wild starry skies’ Spirit Devouring Rats made terrifying grinding noises with their fangs, which were interspersed with the cracking sounds of chewing bones, making everyone want to escape from this place even more.

  However, the starry skies’ Spirit Devouring Rats had already surrounded them from all directions, stretching out many miles. Even when using Spiritual Consciousness, one could not find the end of it.

  It was at this moment that a thick voice resounded, “Listen up people. The starry skies’ Spirit Devouring Rats here are not something we can resist. In a while, we will use our Spiritual Techniques to open up a passage through this starry skies’ Spirit Devouring Rat Horde. Your escape will depend on your own destiny. Those who can escape should gather on Striking Order Star…..”

  After hearing this voice, countless cultivators rushed over, for a short time, even the starry skies’ Spirit Devouring Rats had to retreat under the combined rush.

  Ning Cheng still had not made any moves. Suddenly a two or three feet long starry sky’ Spirit Devouring Rat made its way to the place where Ning Cheng stayed. Lan Ya immediately slashed out with a knife, quickly slicing the Spirit Devouring Rat into two halves.

  Shi Yulan spoke out in anxiety, “Senior Apprentice Brother Ning, we need to hurry up. Otherwise, staying here would only be inviting death.”

  Ning Cheng shook his head and calmly spoke up, “You made a mistake. Going up, we will only find death. However, at this place, there are many broken restrictions but only a few scattered starry skies’ Spirit Devouring Rats have come in that cannot even pose a threat to us. Once we go up, with the cultivations of us three, we will definitely die. The people who had the means have already made their escape a long time ago. As for those staying in this place like us, simply put, they have no method to escape. That man said that he would slaughter open a passage; however, I don’t believe it.”

  Having said that, Ning Cheng then looked at Lan Ya and Shi Yulan, “I don’t know about the situation of the Orchid Borough Celestial River King, but if I had to guess, then he should have long since escaped. Even my partner, Ruan Mingshu, should have already made her escape. The people staying here are the ones who have no means to make their escape.”

  Shi Yulan spoke with some uncertainty, “Senior Apprentice Sister Mingshu and you……”

  Even if Shi Yulan did not finish her words, Ning Cheng knew what she meant. Shi Yulan wanted to say that since Ruan Mingshu had treated him well, she would not leave alone. However, Ning Cheng felt sure that Ruan Mingshu had already departed. Moreover, the only reason Ruan Mingshu behaved so good with him was only due to his ability to help her accomplish something after entering the Time Wilderness. At such a critical juncture, would Ruan Mingshu even think of Ning Cheng?

  “Even if we have to die, we need to rush out. Staying in this place might provide us with temporary safety, but once the bulk of those starry skies’ Spirit Devouring Rats poured in, we would die an even more miserable death.” Although Lan Ya tried to speak calmly, her voice still trembled.

  “There is another way…..” Ning Cheng hesitated before speaking.

  “What way.” Lan Ya and Shi Yulan asked simultaneously.

  “I have a miniature world with me. The two of you can enter my miniature world. I will rush out by myself; however, if I fall, you two would also die.” Ning Cheng told the truth. The laws within his miniature world were of a low grade; moreover, it would not support life on its own. Once he brought along living creatures within it, and he ended up falling, the miniature world and every living thing inside would inevitably collapse.

  Lan Ya immediately spoke up, “Ning Cheng, it’s better for us to join forces. Maybe we might even have a slight chance.”

  Ning Cheng shook his head, “There would be no chance if we joined forces. This is not a Void Collapse. This starry skies’ Spirit Devouring Rat Tide is much more dangerous than the Void Collapse.”

  Lan Ya suddenly remembered that when she had chased Ning Cheng into the Bright Void Gorge, Ning Cheng still came out completely safe and sound; however, she had nearly lost her life. At that time, what level of cultivation did Ning Cheng possess? Thinking of this, she immediately spoke up without any hesitation, “Okay, I’m willing.”

  “I’m willing too.” Shi Yulan knew that under this horrifying starry skies’ Spirit Devouring Rat Tide, not to say anything about her Celestial Gatherer Cultivation, escape would prove difficult for even a Heaven’s Mandate Cultivator.

  ……

  After Lan Ya and Shi Yulan entered the miniature world, Ning Cheng immediately stimulated his Twin Wings of the Heavenly Clouds. With just a few flaps, he emerged from the bottom of the Void Battleship and landed on the lower deck.

  The lower deck had piles of bodies of the starry skies’ Spirit Devouring Rats that fell from above along with bits and pieces of cultivators that those Spirit Devouring Rats had devoured. Ning Cheng, just by his Celestial Novice Cultivation, did not have any ability to change the situation. At this time, he could only rush out of the airship like the other cultivators and try to escape into the starry skies.

  In this kind of place, any flight-type weapon, void battleship or airship were useless. Even a more powerful ship, under so many starry skies’ Spirit D
evouring Rats, would end up cleaned out in a flash. The vessel under his feet was the best example.

  Although the Radium Light Arrows, Flowing Sky Cannons and Sky Locking Lights over the airship had already killed a considerable amount of those starry skies’ Spirit Devouring Rats, those starry skies’ Spirit Devouring Rats still managed to rip open the airship’s restrictions and rush in,

  As soon as Ning Cheng rushed into the starry skies, the horrifying fishy smell greeted his nostrils, even the surrounding space had completely stagnated. With so many starry skies’ Spirit Devouring Rats concentrated in such an area, there was no need for them to exert any Spiritual Techniques or even tricks as the surrounding starry skies had already slipped under the control of the starry skies’ Spirit Devouring Rats.

  At this time, any kind of technique or Spear Intent would be meaningless. For Ning Cheng, even if he shot out with his Spear Intent, he could only kill a few thousands of those starry skies’ Spirit Devouring Rats. At this time, the only thing he could do was to use the teleportation-like speed of his Twin Wings of the Heavenly Clouds to dodge those terrifying starry skies’ Spirit Devouring Rat Tide. At the same time, Ning Cheng also had to make sure that he did not end up as a target for any high ranking starry skies’ Spirit Devouring Rat.

  The moment the Twin Wings of the Heavenly Clouds wound down for a moment. The endless starry skies’ Spirit Devouring Rats swarmed in and quickly started filling the space around Ning Cheng without leaving any gaps.

  Ning Cheng also finally witnessed the nauseating scene, with so many starry skies’ Spirit Devouring Rats crowded around him making sharp teeth grating sounds. It almost made his head explode.

  Most of these starry skies’ Spirit Devouring Rat did not have a high rank, and were at most equivalent to Soul Essence Cultivators in strength; however, there were also a few high-ranked Spirit Devouring Rats in the back that exceed starry skies’ cultivators in the Celestial Scryer Realm.

  In such a crowded area, not to mention Ning Cheng using his teleport-like speed, it was starting to prove difficult for him to use his Twin Wings of the Heavenly Clouds like usual. His teleport-like speed was the result of the Twin Wings of the Heavenly Cloud’s instantaneous acceleration and was not real teleportation that involved manipulation of space. If he could use teleportation through space manipulation, he could have easily ignored these starry skies’ Spirit Devouring Rats. However, with just speed, there was no way to accomplish it.

  Previously, there was still a small gap within the dense Spirit Devouring Rats. However, the moment he entered the starry skies, many Spirit Devouring Rats had suddenly swarmed in closing up the hole in just a blink of an eye. Without any hole, how could he take advantage of his speed to rush out?

  Ning Cheng no longer hid his Celestial River Flame, the Celestial River Flame transformed into a flaming spear as it shot out. Bright purple flames exploded all around Ning Cheng and the terrifying temperatures instantly transformed countless starry skies’ Spirit Devouring Rats into ashes, allowing a gap to appear in front of Ning Cheng. Ning Cheng fully stimulated the Twin Wings of the Heavenly Clouds while rushing in, before finding himself once again surrounded by another layer of starry skies’ Spirit Devouring Rats.

  This was not the way to go,

  Ning Cheng thought while not recalling the Celestial River Flame. The Celestial River Flame once again condensed into a spear before plunging into the countless starry skies’ Spirit Devouring Rats.

  A variety of harsh screams and burning fumes filled the area. Although the starry skies’ Spirit Devouring Rats had smooth skins that were fire resistant, they still could not handle the extreme temperatures of the Celestial River Flame.

  The Celestial River Flame condensed into a spear was akin to a sharp ploughshare that could extend easily. A gap once again appeared in front of Ning Cheng. Ning Cheng no longer decided to stimulate the Twin Wings of the Heavenly Clouds; crazily activating the Celestial River Flame, Ning Cheng immediately flew out riding just behind the flames.

  Ning Cheng had no idea about how many starry skies’ Spirit Devouring Rats had fallen along the way; however, he also knew that these dead starry skies’ Spirit Devouring Rats were not even equivalent to a single hair among the rat tide.

  Although the Celestial River Flame had the necessary power and fierceness to it, Ning Cheng also was aware of a significant drawback of the Celestial River Flame. Simply put, it consumed a considerable portion of his reserves. In a relatively short time, Ning Cheng started to feel extremely fatigued.

  At this time, Ning Cheng felt a powerful aura lock on to him.

  This was a high-ranking starry skies’ Spirit Devouring Rat, at least equivalent to a cultivator in the Celestial Bridge Realm. At this moment, the starry skies’ Spirit Devouring Rats in front of Ning Cheng had loosened up and were not as dense as before. Although Ning Cheng felt extremely tired, he stimulated the Twin Wings of the Heavenly Clouds to its max, and with a faint afterimage, instantly disappeared.

  After taking advantage of the Twin Wings of the Heavenly Cloud’s instantaneous acceleration, Ning Cheng found that although the surrounding area still had many starry skies’ Spirit Devouring Rats, they were a lot more sparsely distributed.

  At this moment, Ning Cheng only had a single thought in his mind, and that was to escape.

  After upgrading the Twin Wings of the Heavenly Clouds to four pairs of shimmering lights, the already teleport-like speed had also improved by several times compared to before. Ning Cheng crazily wielded the Twin Wings of the Heavenly Clouds, after flying for almost half a day, Ning Cheng finally could not continue anymore. At the same time, he found out that there were no starry skies’ Spirit Devouring Rats around him. Moreover, that strong aura that locked on to him had also complete disappeared.

  Ning Cheng finally stopped and sucked in a few deep breaths while cursing inwardly. This starry skies’ beast tide was just too scary. Previously, Lan Ya and Shi Yulan had mentioned that they wanted to become starry skies’ wanderers. At that time, Ning Cheng had thought that they had decided that based on adequate information and experience. However, everyone’s path was their own personal choice; as such, he did not want to interfere with what other people choose for themselves.

  Ning Cheng took out the imitation Celestial River Class Battleship while simultaneously bringing out Lan Ya and Shi Yulan.

  “Did we really escape?” Lan Ya asked while looking at the vast starry skies all around. How could they not even see a shred of those starry skies’ Spirit Devouring Rats?

  Ning Cheng spoke with a tired voice, “Yes, we escaped. I have to go in and rest. This battleship has the positional coordinates of the Striking Order Star Land. Senior Apprentice Sister Lan and Junior Apprentice Sister Yulan, I will have to trouble you to take control of it.”

  “Ning Cheng, go in and take rest. Leave the rest to me.” Lan Ya spoke with a gratitude-filled tone. This kind of life-saving graciousness was not something that she could express with just thanks.

  ……

  Ning Cheng immediately went into one of the battleship’s cabin to rest; however, Lan Ya and Shi Yulan felt waves surging within their hearts. The pair took joint control of the Celestial River Battleship for over several days and even then could not wholly calm down.

  “Senior Apprentice Lan, what are you thinking?” Shi Yulan on seeing Lan Ya’s always-hesitant expression finally asked.

  Lan Ya did not immediately answer Shi Yulan but looked at Shi Yulan and asked, “Junior Apprentice Sister Yulan, what are you thinking?”

  Shi Yulan bowed her head and remained silent for a long time before she finally shook her head and replied, “I don’t know.”

  “Junior Apprentice Sister Yulan,
I don’t want to head to the Time Wilderness. My cultivation is still too low. If we go in, we might end up dragging down Ning Cheng. I have already set my heart on becoming a starry skies’ wanderer. After we reach the Bell Edge Star, I will say my goodbyes to Ning Cheng.” Lan Ya looked deep into the starry skies outside the Celestial River Battleship. Although her tone remained relaxed, it gave off a feeling of firm determination.

  The Bell Edge Star was a star within the Striking Order Starry Skies, and near to the Striking Order Star Land

  Out of Lan Ya’s expectation, Shi Yulan did not feel surprised. She also stared into the vast and empty starry skies before her and spoke up after a long time, “Senior Apprentice Sister Lan, what you don’t plan to say, I plan to say that. Our cultivation and strength have no comparison to other powerful Celestial Scryer Cultivators. Senior Apprentice Brother Ning also has saved me a few times; however, I can’t rely on him forever.”

  Lan Ya showed a smile, “Junior Apprentice Sister Yulan, it is I who should speak that sentence. I just wanted to tell you that after I leave, you should continue to remain at Ning Cheng’s side.”

  Shi Yulan also showed a faint smile before shaking her head and speaking, “Senior Apprentice Sister Lan, I already have a man I love, and I can never forget his appearance. Every time I close my eyes, it is as if I am leaning beside him. In this world, no one can replace that man. Although Senior Apprentice Brother Ning is a good man, he is not mine, and I also can’t be with him.”

  “Is it that starry skies’ Wanderer?” Lan Ya asked as she looked into Shi Yulan’s eyes.

  Shi Yulan’s face showed a hint of ruddiness before she finally nodded and spoke, “Yes, I love him. If only I could be with him, wandering the starry skies together, relying on one another… I wish I could give him a child, and we all could travel the starry skies, together….”
