The Gate Of Good Fortune c1-905

  Also, he felt that the starry skies’ Essence Qi from the praying mat had turned less dense. If Ning Cheng used it to cultivate, it would have a much-reduced effect over him. However, he did not let go of the praying mat and grabbed it again. What surprised Ning Cheng, however, was that he managed to lift up the praying mat this time.

  After putting away the praying mat, Ning Cheng immediately felt that the starry skies’ Essence Qi in the surrounding had returned to normal levels

  . Looks like it was all the result of this praying mat.

  “Young man, you not only used my precious cultivation treasure but you even took away my cultivation treasure, this is just too much. How can you be so excessive? You should know that I saved this cultivation treasure for my future use. Although whether you take it or not is the same thing; however, if I have to use it then I would have to take it out from you……” A sudden voice appeared. Although the first part felt domineering as if coming from an expert; however, the later part felt a little verbose and sounded endless.

  Ning Cheng immediately brought out his Nirvana Spear while thinking,

  who was this fellow?

  Ning Cheng guessed that this voice should belong to the master of that dark hand. That dark hand had quickly caught the Life Essence of a cultivator who had crashed into this place; however, it had not touched him.

  “Since the praying mat is yours, I will leave it to you. Also, since I am about to leave, I hope you can remove the restrictions over this well.” Ning Cheng replied in a calm tone.

  That dark hand had not tried to catch him; Ning Cheng felt that it absolutely was not because he was someone special. Most likely, this dark hand could not capture Ning Cheng due to Ning Cheng still having his corporeal body intact.

  “Young people are just too impatient. You can use this place to reach the Celestial Gatherer Realm. That way both of us can come out again. Would that not be good? In this way, it would not only save time, but it would also take care of two things at once……” The voice arrived once again.

  “What do you mean?” Ning Cheng calmly interrupted the verbose, while his Spiritual Consciousness carefully wrapped around his body.

  Then a laughing voice emerged, “Since someone came here, it means that the Time Wilderness has opened once again. I am just a Life Essence; you do not have to feel that nervous about me. Originally, I wanted to use this time to devour some Life Essences and grow myself. During that time, you can cultivate using the Essence Gathering Praying Mat. Once you reached the Celestial Gatherer Realm, my Life Essence would have also grown by a bit, and then we can fuse as one. Wouldn’t it be beautiful?”

  “So you actually wanted to take over me, did you come out of the map?” Ning Cheng found the place from where this voice came from, it was from the right wall of this cave.

  “Haha….” Although this voice laughed, this time the voice had a shrill and sharp tone to it. “Young man, what map are you talking about? You do not have to worry about it too much. Besides how can you say that I want to take over you, its fusion, fusion, do you not know? I’m just surprised that you not only managed to advance to the Celestial Shatterer Realm but you also have no Celestial Wheel……”

  By the time the voice reached the part about the Celestial Wheel, it had faded entirely. Following that, Ning Cheng felt a sharp sting in his Sea of Consciousness and a blurry shadow suddenly appeared within his Sea of Consciousness. This shadow did not belong to a human figure but resembled a bull-like head.

  Ning Cheng felt shocked by the sudden appearance of this beast. However, what surprised him more was that he could not stop this bull-faced Life Essence from entering his consciousness. It also indicated that this fellow had some powerful means.

  “I just need your Life Essence, let me eat another one…..” Just at this blurry bull-shaped face spoke out this sentence, a black hand suddenly took form within Ning Cheng’s Sea of Consciousness and rose up as if wanting to grasp something.

  Ning Cheng felt his consciousness turning blank as if his Spiritual Soul wanted to separate from his body.

  Ning Cheng would never let this bastard seize his body and immediately bit down hard on the tip of his tongue, causing the Everlasting Blue Thunder City to emerge. Countless thunder rays slammed into the blurry shadow of this bull-shaped head, causing it to emit shrill screams, “Who are you, how can you bring out a weapon within your Sea of Consciousness, what kind of weapon is this……. Ah, no, what kind of Sea of Consciousness is this? How does it resemble the starry skies?”

  Ning Cheng was not in the mood of showing mercy to the vague bull-like head’s screams. Moreover, this was not the first time that someone wanted to take possession of him. At the same time, Ning Cheng also felt the most fearful towards others trying to take posses of him. If he had just shown a bit more care, he could have merged the Celestial River Flame into his Domain before deploying. That way, this bull-like face could not have entered his Sea of Consciousness.

  “Boom-Boom….” Lightning arcs slammed on to the bull-like head’s vague shadow, causing it to erupt in unceasing screams while its figure turned even vaguer.

  “I’m going to swallow you…..” The blurry bull face no longer could remain calm and frantically tried to devour Ning Cheng’s life essence.

  “Celestial River Flame explode…..” Ning Cheng also would not show any politeness towards anyone who tried to take possession over him and immediately unleashed the Celestial River Flame.

  Initially, under the attacks from the Everlasting Blue Thunder City, the blurry bull-faced Life Essence could barely hold on; however, the moment the terrifying Celestial River Flame erupted; it immediately gave out a tearing cry.

  “Let me out. I was wrong, let go of me…..” The bull-faced life essence screamed sharply within Ning Cheng’s Sea of Consciousness; however, its screams had started to grow weaker and weaker each passing moment. Previously, it already felt overwhelmed from the Everlasting Blue Thunder City; however, the moment the Celestial River Flame came out, it immediately felt mortified.

  Ning Cheng raised his hand and grabbed the almost-extinguished Life Essence within his Sea of Consciousness.

  “Eldest Brother, no senior… Please spare me. I am not even worth a fart to you. If I had known about it, I would never have tried to take possession of a supreme existence like you.” The caught bull-faced life essence, trapped in Ning Cheng’s palm, honestly looked miserable. How could one find even a shred of resemblance to its previous expert-like dominance?

  “You think I’m very old?” Ning Cheng did not immediately kill this Life Essence. He first wanted to wring out a few answers from this life essence. In any case, Ning Cheng did not expect that this bull-faced life essence would be of such a high grade.

  The bull-faced life essence quickly spoke up, “No, no, you are the most handsome, the suavest, the most generous and someone with the highest elegance. The premier genius of the entire starry skies and unparalleled in the entire universe……”

  “Stop.” Ning Cheng felt goosebumps erupting throughout his body as he heard this bull-faced life essence speak. Looks like he misjudged once again. This life essence was not one of a high grade, but of an inferior character.

  The bull-faced life essence immediately stopped talking after hearing that word. In its view, Ning Cheng’s words had a higher authority compared to the world’s most potent mouth clamper.

  “How much do you know about the Time Wilderness? Let me see if you have any value to me.” Ning Cheng stared at the bull-faced life essence and sneered.

  The bull-faced life essence quickly shouted out, “I know a lot, I have value, there is a great value to my existence……”

  “Talk less noise, and speak.” Ning Cheng tightened his grip on the bull-faced life essence while increasing the power of the Celestial River Flame, leaving only a sliver of life.

  The bull-faced life essence quickly spoke up, “I know about the Echo Falls, I also know about the Sea of Twilights, I know about…
A lot, a lot…”

  “Do you about the Perpetual Moon Lake?” Ning Cheng felt his heart move.

  “I know, I know, I know about it very well, I absolutely know about it. My master once took me there, so I know about the Perpetual Moon Lake. Just let me live, I promise to take you to the Perpetual Moon Lake.” The bull-faced life essence quickly spoke up, even using a variety of words to try to describe its familiarity.

  It feels like this bull-faced life essence has some value to it,

  Ning Cheng thought as he dispelled the thought of immediately killing this life essence.

  “Although I don’t want to kill you, in the end, you’re still a life essence. How do you plan to follow me?” Ning Cheng, on hearing this bull-faced shadow speak about a master, guessed that bull-faced shadow was someone brought in by a cultivator in the past.

  The bull-faced shadow looked at Ning Cheng and spoke up, “My master had left behind a big ring around here. As long as you let me go, I will take it out immediately. Everything is inside the ring. Besides, I, I’ve only lived in the praying mat before you came in.”

  “You don’t have any room to negotiate. Hurry up and get it.” Ning Cheng raised his hand, pulled out the bull-faced life essence from the inside of him, and threw it out. As for giving up the praying mat to this bull-faced shadow, Ning Cheng did not even think about it.

  “Yes, yes, I’ll go and get it right away.” The bull-faced life essence’s expression turned even more flattering.

  An hour later, Ning Cheng finally figured out what was going on. The ring brought by this bull-faced Life Essence had a cavernous space within it, indicating that it was of a much higher grade compared to Ning Cheng’s Miniature World Ring and was almost at the level of a high-grade Dao Artefact, if not higher. Moreover, it could even allow a Life Essence to hole up inside to survive.

  However, the things inside did not catch Ning Cheng’s attention at all. Apart from a knife, which was also a high-grade Dao Artefact, the storage ring only contained a few empty jade boxes and some cheap materials.

  The bull-faced Life Essence usually hid within the praying mat. As long as any cultivator fell down the well, the bull-faced Life Essence would then devour the other cultivator’s Life Essence for cultivation. As such, it did not have much idea about the things inside the ring.

  The bull-faced Life Essence turned out to be a Wind Seeking Longevity Bull; hearing the name, Ning Cheng almost laughed out. No wonder this fellow managed to live this long, its very name contained the words ‘Longevity Bull’. Its owner had already perished in the Sea of Twilight, following which the Life Essence of the Wind Seeking Longevity Bull managed to flee to this dry well with the owner’s ring, and did not choose to come out again.

  As for the Wind Seeking Longevity Bull’s way of speaking before Ning Cheng caught it, it was because it wanted to imitate its fallen owner and pretend to be an expert. However, after Ning Cheng trapped it, it completely forgot about differentiating between North and South, East and West and could only beg for mercy.

  “How long have I been cultivating in here?” Ning Cheng asked while replacing the ring on his hand with the ring brought by the Wind Seeking Longevity Bull, deciding to use it as his own for now.

  The Wind Seeking Longevity Bull did not dare to utter even half a word of discontentment as it carefully replied, “For almost two years. After Master came in and started cultivating, Master did not stop till Master advanced to the Celestial Shatterer Realm.”

  “I’m not your master. Do not mistake me for someone else. As for your Life Essence, I am giving it back to you. You can continue staying in here and devour Life Essences that come your way, but I’m leaving.” Ning Cheng mercilessly pulled out the trace of the Wind Seeking Longevity Bull’s Life Essence and spoke.

  This bull had little use to him apart from its longevity. Although it said that it knew a few places, it had not mentioned anything else. It even said that it knew about the Perpetual Moon Lake, but only the general direction pointed out by his previous owner. To save its life, this bull had no bottom line at all. As such, although Ning Cheng did not want to kill this sly Wind Seeking Longevity Bull, he also did not want to take it with him.

  “Master, please take me with you. I do not know for how many years I have remained trapped in this dark well. Besides, I cannot devour Life Essences anymore with my present condition. However, I still have many uses. I am a Wind Seeking Longevity Bull; as such, not only do I live a long life, I am also very fast. Once I restore my physical body, I would definitely be able to provide master with even more help.” The Wind Seeking Longevity Bull pitifully spoke up. With Ning Cheng taking away its praying mat, how would it be able to stay in this place?

  Ning Cheng hesitated for a long time before speaking, “I can take you with me. However, if you dare to have even a shred of disloyalty, I will help you recover your corporeal body…..”

  The Wind Seeing Longevity Bull felt shocked, daring to show even a shred of disloyalty, yet still helping in recovering my corporeal body. However, if it showed disloyalty again, would it have any way to deal with his terrifying Sea of Consciousness?

  Ning Cheng looked at the Wind Seeking Longevity Bull and sneered before speaking, “And then I will stew you whole, add some shallots and scallions, and slowly relish a full pot of beef soup.”

  The Wind Seeking Longevity Bull shuddered and quickly spoke up, “There will be no disloyalty. There definitely would not be any disloyalty. I am loyal; I’ll always follow you with unparalleled loyalty….”

  “Stop” Ning Cheng stopped the Wind Seeking Longevity Bull from speaking anymore, “I will call you Little Chase from now on. If you manage to perform well in the Time Wilderness, I will take you out and restore your corporeal body. As for turning you into beef soup, it will depend on your performance.”

  The Wind Seeking Longevity Bull felt an intense shiver run down its spine and did not dare to continue with its wordiness.

  Ning Cheng threw the Wind Seeking Longevity Bull’s Life Essence into the Essence Gathering Praying Mat and then put the praying mat into the ring before stimulating the Twin Wings of the Heavenly Clouds.

  It had not taken too long for Ning Cheng to fall down; however, now that he had to fly upwards, even after advancing to the Celestial Shatterer Realm, it proved extremely challenging. Ning Cheng still could not figure out what this well was, but the powerful suction made Ning Cheng spend at least half a month inside it before he finally managed to come out.

  The first thing Ning Cheng wanted to do after coming out of the well’s entrance was to head to Moon Creek. He and Ruan Mingshu had made an appointment to meet at Moon Creek. However, since Ning Cheng had remained trapped for nearly two years, he did not know if Ruan Mingshu would still choose to stay at Moon Creek.

  ……

  The Moon Creek was not a brook or a stream, according to Ruan Mingshu it was just a dried up part of a stream. However, when Ning Cheng arrived at this place, referring it as a dried-up stream did not feel right; it felt more like a dried up basin at best.

  After Ning Cheng advanced to the Celestial Shatterer Realm, although still without a Celestial Wheel, his Spiritual Consciousness had soared in strength and could extend up to two to three hundred miles around him.

  However, Ning Cheng could not find any trace of Ruan Mingshu, nor did he see any mark left behind by Ruan Mingshu.

  Did Ruan Mingshu not arrive here yet?

  Ning Cheng felt a bit doubtful. Although Ning Cheng had not come to this place in time, it was not because he decided to renege on the appointment, but because he ended up trapped at the bottom of a well. So what reason did Ruan Mingshu have for not showing up?

  The Essence Qi arou
nd this dry river was only of an ordinary quality; however, Ning Cheng still decided to wait here. The main reason was that his Celestial Shatterer Cultivation had not consolidated yet. He had just advanced to the Celestial Shatterer Realm when the idiot bull, Little Chase, woke him up. Instead of wasting time and energy to look for a place to consolidate his cultivation, Ning Cheng felt it was better to stay at the Moon Creek and wait for Ruan Mingshu while solidifying his cultivation.

  As two months passed by, Ning Cheng finally managed to consolidate his cultivation at the early stages of Celestial Shatterer Realm. During this period, Ruan Mingshu had not shown herself. With no indication of her, Ning Cheng started thinking about leaving this place and look for the Perpetual Moon Lake by himself.

  Since Ruan Mingshu had not shown up for several months, was he supposed to continue to wait at this place all the time? Maybe Ruan Mingshu had already come here before and had long since left without waiting for him.

  Besides, even though the stupid bull bragged a little, Ning Cheng still knew about the general location about the Perpetual Moon Lakes apart from one or two other things.

  At this moment, a Taoist shadow quickly rushed towards his direction. Ning Cheng immediately stopped thinking about heading out. In any case, this was the first time he encountered another cultivator since he entered the Time Wilderness.

  This Taoist shadow soon arrived at the dry stream’s Moon Creek, allowing Ning Cheng to make out that it was Ruan Mingshu’s silhouette. After more than two years, Ruan Mingshu’s aura had grown much stronger than before. From this, Ning Cheng realised that he was not the only one to obtain a fortune after entering the Time Wilderness.

  Without waiting for Ning Cheng to come out, another Taoist shadow quickly arrived. This silhouette was of Zhao Yanxiang, just as Ning Cheng guessed.

  “Mingshu, why don’t you listen to me instead of running back to this place again and again?” Zhao Yanxiang descended and stopped right in front of Ruan Mingshu before complaining. His aura had also grown stronger compared to the past. Looks like this fellow also experienced some not-so-small progress within the Time Wilderness.
