Chapter 604 Yun Shu's Decision

Chu Cunli had no choice but to panic.

He was in the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm, while this person, according to his spiritual sense perception, was in the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm. However, as they were both in the Spirit Transformation Realm and had practiced in Leihuo Continent for so many years, Chu Cunli knew very well that even a strong man in the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm would not dare to walk like this in a thunderstorm.

The other party either has a treasure that can avoid thunder, or he is a small group of the most top-notch geniuses in the entire Cangtian Realm. But no matter which the situation is, it means that the other party is a big shot that he and even his sect cannot afford to offend.

In the world of monks, pointing at a monk is a provocation, especially if the monk is a high-level monk who is stronger than you, which is disrespectful.

After scolding the woman, Chu Cunli showed a flattering smile on his face, but he did not dare to speak. He just looked up at the man who walked out of the thunderstorm. The other three also watched in silence.

In Chu Cunli's mind, it would be best for this person to just leave and ignore them. Dealing with such a strong person could lead to taboos if one is not careful.

But to Chu Cunli's disappointment, after this person sensed them, he actually stopped in the air in front of them.

"May I ask fellow Taoists, is this Thunder Fire Continent?"

Chu Ning looked at the four people below, one in the middle stage of the Jindan stage and three in the Yuanying stage. Such a combination could not pose any threat to him.

After leaving the sect, he did not go directly to the Zhongzhou Imperial City, but took the Zhongzhou Road to go directly to the eastern part of the Cangtian Realm to find the Yun family where Senior Yun was.

He chose to look for the Yun family first because he knew that if he went to Zhongzhou, what he had done in the Holy Academy would inevitably attract the attention of major forces in Zhongzhou, and might even cause other disturbances. Once he was delayed by things, it might be several years or even decades before he could come back to the East.

Sihai Trading Company has been good to me. Since I have promised to do something for them, I should do it as soon as possible and give them a reply.

Originally the journey was relatively peaceful, but just when he was about to leave Zhongzhou, he suddenly encountered two Dongxu powerful men fighting. Even though he fled far away as soon as possible, the aftermath of the battle still affected him.

In desperation, he had to use the Aurora Wings to choose a direction to travel through space, but it was difficult to determine the direction when the Aurora Wings were traveling over long distances, and Chu Ning was not sure whether he had arrived in the eastern area.

"Senior, this is Leihuozhou."

Chu Cunli quickly replied that the other party called him a Taoist friend, but he did not dare to really call himself a Taoist friend and act as if he was an equal.

It seems that my position is correct.

After confirming that it was Leihuo Continent, Chu Ning felt relieved. According to the information given by Senior Yun, the Yun family was in the territory of Leihuo Continent.

"Excuse me, fellow Daoist, do you know how to get to Jiyun City in Leihuo Continent?"

"Jiyun City?"

Chu Cunli thought for a moment, then apologized, "Please forgive me, senior. I have never heard of Jiyun City. Maybe I am ignorant."

To say that he is ignorant is a polite remark from Chu Cunli. He has been practicing in Leihuo Continent for more than two thousand years. He has been to almost all the famous cities in Leihuo Continent, but he has never heard of Jiyun City. There is only one possibility: either Jiyun City is not in Leihuo Continent, or Jiyun City is too small, so small that he has never paid any attention to it.

Although the environment in Leihuo Continent is harsh, there are many cities, tens of thousands of them, but he only knows about a few thousand of them, and he doesn't even care about the other smaller cities.

It's not that he has high standards, but the small cities in Leihuo Continent are of little value. Even the sects will not be interested in those small cities because of the existence of thunderstorms. Many small cities are destroyed by thunderstorms within a hundred years or even thousands of years.

The cities that he could remember were all large cities that were guarded by special lightning protection arrays and would not be destroyed by thunderstorms.

In Chu Cunli's opinion, the biggest possibility is that Jiyun City is a small city, and it may have even been destroyed by a thunderstorm. Judging from the realm of this senior in front of him, he has been practicing for at least three thousand years, and perhaps he had some cause and effect in Jiyun City in the past.

A thoughtful look appeared on Chu Ning's face. He was very knowledgeable about the ways of the world and had figured out some information from the other party's words.

Jiyun City is not very famous in Leihuo Continent.

This is different from what Senior Yun told him.

According to Senior Yun, the Yun family was one of the top families in Leihuo Continent back then. Jiyun City was the Yun family's base. There were tens of thousands of cultivators in the Yun family alone, including several powerful Void Realm masters.

What happened to the Yun family?

"Excuse me."

Not getting the answer he wanted, Chu Ning prepared to leave, but at this moment Yun Shu was facing a dilemma.

Jiyun City.

This name is very unfamiliar to the current cultivators in Leihuo Continent, but he knows it and even remembers it deeply in his mind.

After he became the person with the highest level of cultivation in the family, the old patriarch gave him a jade slip, which recorded the family's past secrets.

It was at that time that he learned that their Yun family was once extremely glorious, and half of the entire Leihuo Continent was under the control of their Lei family. But later, because an ancestor of the Yun family offended a terrorist force, that force directly arranged for strong men to take action to kill the Yun family.

If the old patriarch at that time had not taken precautions in advance and arranged for some members of the Yun family to leave the family early, I am afraid that the Yun family would have been completely destroyed.

Jiyun City was also reduced to ruins by the actions of those powerful men, and has been completely forgotten by the cultivators of Leihuo Continent until now.

Yun Shu didn't know why the senior in front of him would come to Yun City in advance. He was afraid that this person was the powerful person mentioned in the jade slip who destroyed their Yun family.

If so, then if he told the other party about Jiyun City at this moment, it would be very likely that he would expose his identity as a descendant of the Yun family.

The reason why the surname Yun is still retained is that there are many people with the surname Yun in Leihuo Continent, so they will not be considered as the descendants of the Yun family who escaped. On the contrary, precisely because of the surname Yun, the forces that destroyed the Yun family will be less likely to suspect them.

This is called doing the opposite!

Yun Shu was caught in a dilemma. His family was in crisis. If he couldn't get the Earth Fire, the family crisis could not be resolved. Now was his only chance.

Three breaths later, just as Chu Ning turned around, Yun Shu finally made a decision.

"Senior, I know Jiyun City."

What Yun Shu didn't know was that Chu Ning, who had his back to him, didn't show any surprise on his face. After he spoke, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, as if he had expected this scene.

In fact, with Chu Ning’s current realm, his spiritual sense is not only able to perceive everything around him, but can even perceive the emotional fluctuations of others.

When he said the three words "Jiyun City", the young man's emotions fluctuated violently, which means that he should know Jiyun City.

He was just waiting for this person to speak.

"Junior Brother Yun, don't talk nonsense."

Chu Cunli scolded him repeatedly, for he was afraid that this senior would misunderstand him and think that he was deliberately deceiving him.

After all, even my own nephew knew it, but I didn't. It doesn't make sense to justify this.

"Uncle Chu, when I was out, I bought a jade slip and saw information about Jiyun City in it."

Yun Shu hurriedly explained that he didn't want to offend Uncle Chu.

"Oh, my friend, do you know where Jiyun City is?"

Chu Ning looked at Yun Shu with a smile. After hearing that this person's surname was Yun, he had some guesses in his mind.

"Senior, I can tell you the news about Jiyun City, but I have a request."

Yun Shu summoned up all his courage when he said this. To negotiate with a powerful person who even his uncle-master had to call himself a junior was a huge challenge for him, a Nascent Soul cultivator.

"Yun Shu, you are so outrageous!"

Chu Cunli was furious, while another man next to him had a look of disbelief on his face. Is Yun Shu crazy?

How dare you negotiate terms in front of this senior?

If there was any valuable information, such as the whereabouts of a high-level spiritual medicine, then it would be fine to say this, but if you dare to negotiate conditions just for the whereabouts of a city, aren't you courting death?

Even if this senior slapped Yun Shu to death at this moment, I am afraid that the uncle and the sect would not stand up for Yun Shu, and they might even have to apologize to this senior.

"Yun Shu!"

The other woman had a worried look on her face. She didn't understand why Yun Shu suddenly said this. The Yun Shu she knew was not such a reckless person.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"Senior, my disciples' words were disrespectful. I hope you won't blame me."

After Chu Cunli finished scolding Yun Shu, he showed a flattering smile to Chu Ning: "Don't worry, senior, Yun Shu will definitely tell you everything he knows."

"No."

Chu Ning raised his hand to stop Chu Cunli from saying anything, and looked at Yun Shu: "Tell me, what are your conditions?"

"I would like you to help me get a fire from this mountain range."

For Yun Shu, if this senior was willing to help, the crisis of his family could be easily resolved, but Yun Shu thought about it for a moment and finally did not make this request.

Firstly, I am afraid that this senior may not agree to this request, because it involves another force. Although this senior is strong, I am afraid he is not willing to become a bad guy just for a piece of information.

Another more important point is that he was afraid that this senior would be dissatisfied with him because of this matter and would make things difficult for the Yun family. After all, with the strength of this senior, he didn't even need to do it himself. As long as he showed such an intention, there would be many people willing to serve this senior to target their Yun family.

"Earth fire?"

Chu Ning spread out his spiritual sense and caught a ray of fifth-order earth fire in the thunderstorm.

The fifth-level earth fire would be troublesome even for ordinary Jinhua cultivators. Almost no cultivator below the Jinhua stage could resist the earth fire by their own strength. They must rely on some powerful magic weapons.

"Okay, then I'll grant you your wish!"

Chu Ning grabbed in the air with his right hand, and a beam of fire suddenly broke out from the mountain range covered by thunder and rain behind him. Several peaks turned into a sea of ​​fire, and in this sea of ​​fire, a fire dragon rushed out with a roar.

The fire dragon was hundreds of feet long. The moment it rushed out of the sea of ​​fire, it kept roaring and shaking its body wildly. With a flick of its huge tail, a mountain turned directly into charcoal.

But no matter how the fire dragon resisted, there was always an invisible pressure that controlled it, constantly dragging it towards this side, and the fire dragon's body was constantly shrinking.

By the time everyone was a hundred feet away, his body had shrunk to three feet.

However, even so, Yun Shu and the other two still turned pale. The energy emitted by this fifth-order earth fire was too much for them to bear at the Nascent Soul stage.

Chu Cunli's mouth opened slightly for a moment, he was shocked.

The fifth level of earth fire was subdued so easily, he had never heard of such a method.

Even if he came to help Yun Shu subdue the fifth-level earth fire, according to the plan, he would first set up a formation to slowly deplete the energy of the earth fire, and then suppress it so that Yun Shu could surrender.

Is this the difference between the middle and late stages of the Spirit Transformation Realm?

The leader of the sect is a powerful person in the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm, but he doesn't think that the leader can do this.

I'm afraid this person didn't rely on magic weapons to get through the thunderstorm, but relied on his strength to prevent the thunder from striking him.

Is it a certain incarnation genius from the Cang Tian Realm? Chu Cunli began to match the incarnation geniuses from the Cang Tian Realm that he had heard of with the one in front of him, but it seemed that they did not match.

"Let's do it."

Chu Ning looked at Yun Shu. Yun Shu was stunned for a moment. Take action?

How can he do this?

If you walk over there, you will be melted by the underground fire.

"Go without worry. If this underground fire dares to melt you, I will make it completely disappear into ashes."

As soon as Chu Ning said this, the fire dragon's body trembled, and its temperature suddenly dropped by several degrees, so that Yun Shu and the other two no longer felt it.

The spirit of the earth and fire surrendered.

Chu Ning knew a lot about the Earth Fire Spirits. It was not easy for each Earth Fire Spirit to be born, and it was even more difficult for it to grow to the fifth level. These Earth Fire Spirits did not want to be destroyed.

Even if they are subdued, life will not be too difficult for the Earth Fire Spirits, because the people who subdue them will try every means to help them upgrade their ranks.

These guys are the type who bully the weak and fear the strong. If they meet someone they can beat, they will act very arrogantly. But once they meet someone who is strong enough to suppress them, they will immediately become timid.

"Why, now that I've given you the chance, you don't dare to try?"

Seeing Yun Shu standing there without moving, Chu Ning had a mocking look on his face.

"Thank you, senior. I am willing to try."

The next moment, Yun Shu walked towards the fire dragon.

A hundred feet, fifty feet, thirty feet. When there was only ten feet left to the fire dragon, the fire dragon suddenly shook. However, Yun Shu did not stop at all and continued to walk towards the fire dragon without fear.

Seeing Yun Shu's actions, Chu Ning had a hint of admiration in his eyes. If he guessed correctly that this person was indeed a descendant of the Yun family, his character was not bad.

At a distance of ten feet, the fire dragon suddenly roared and swallowed Yun Shu in one gulp.

"ah!"

The female cultivator couldn't help but scream when she saw this scene. At this moment, Yun Shu's figure had disappeared from the scene, and was completely swallowed up by the sea of ​​fire transformed by the fire dragon.
