With a roar, everyone's attention was drawn.
"Second Elder!"
"The elder has arrived!"
"You're finished now."
"..."
Many people started to clamor.
Clearly, this second elder is also quite powerful.
"Young man, show mercy when you can, why be so ruthless?"
Before long, an elderly man with white hair and a youthful face came from afar.
His eyes looked at Ning Qi, then at the corpse on the ground, and his expression immediately darkened.
"I only killed a few arrogant people."
"What's the rush?"
Ning Qi smiled dismissively, looking at the old man in front of him, knowing that he didn't seem like an easy person to talk to.
Since that's the case, there's no need to be polite.
"oh?"
"Pretty arrogant."
Upon hearing Ning Qi's words, the Second Elder couldn't help but smile: "Then, this old man will stretch your muscles and bones for you."
"Let me show you what it means to have mountains beyond mountains!"
"Okay, let's go!"
Ning Qi looked at him as if he was about to make a move, but he was not afraid at all.
She even waved to him.
His eyes were full of mockery.
"court death!"
The Second Elder was enraged by Ning Qi.
It roared and charged forward.
Seeing that the Second Elder was holding a sword, Ning Qi also took out his own Chaos Sword.
The way to deal with this kind of person is either not to take action at all, or to eliminate them completely in one go.
Otherwise, they would really think they're easy targets.
"Whoosh!"
As Ning Qi drew his sword, the Second Elder's sword descended from the sky.
It slashed down directly at Ning Qi's head.
This sword energy pierced through the void between the two.
It tore through space, its power overwhelming.
"when!"
However, something unexpected happened.
Ning Qi didn't take a single step back.
In this way, he blocked his Chaos Sword from the sword energy.
He easily blocked the Second Elder's full-force attack.
"What?"
"How is that possible?"
"The Second Elder possesses the strength of a peak third-tier cultivator."
"..."
These people stared in disbelief, their faces filled with astonishment.
I never expected Ning Qi to be so strong.
The people who had just provoked him were already starting to regret it.
It's just a continent; it doesn't really matter who comes.
If you're lucky, you'll definitely find treasure; if not, even if you raze this place to the ground, you'll still have come for nothing.
"Old man, your sword isn't sharp enough!"
Ning Qi smiled and then said, "Well then, let me show you mine!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned and swung the Chaos Sword.
This time, he did so to avoid revealing his identity.
They chose to use only their immortal power to deal with the Second Elder.
Driven by his immortal power, the Chaos Sword roared.
The sword light pierced straight through the Second Elder.
"The Undying God!"
Faced with Ning Qi's attack, the Second Elder did not dare to be negligent.
He quickly took out his defensive treasure.
Suddenly, a bronze bell filled with blue light appeared in front of him.
After the bronze bell appeared, it began to spread rapidly, layer by layer, at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In the blink of an eye, thousands of protective light curtains spread out.
"Whoosh!"
At that very moment, Ning Qi's sword fell.
It slashed fiercely at his defensive light barrier.
At first, these layers of light curtains could resist.
However, as the Chaos Sword descended step by step.
The light barrier began to crack, and was eventually pierced layer by layer by the sword light of the Chaos Sword.
In the blink of an eye, it fell straight down.
"call!"
The second elder sensed something was wrong and abruptly retreated.
In the short time it took him to step out, the spot where he had been standing was shattered by Ning Qi's sword.
A ravine several hundred feet long instantly appeared on the ground.
This move left everyone present speechless.
What kind of strength is this?
I'm afraid even the Second Elder couldn't do that.
To their surprise, Ning Qi didn't seem to be very strong.
I could only vaguely sense the aura of a true immortal emanating from him.
Compared to the Second Elder, he is nothing.
However, the destructive power it unleashed was astonishing.
This was just a casual strike from him; he hadn't used much force at all.
"Fellow Daoist, it was all a misunderstanding!"
The Second Elder quickly realized the gap between himself and Ning Qi, and hurriedly came to sue for peace.
"Misunderstand?"
Ning Qi smiled and said, "That's not what you said just now."
"It's all because the disciples are disobedient."
"We've spoiled them rotten!"
"Don't hold grudges against such petty people!"
The Second Elder was flexible and adaptable; even when ridiculed by Ning Qi, he maintained a smile throughout.
"Then hand over half of what you have obtained."
"I'm just giving them a taste of their own medicine."
Seeing this, Ning Qi reached out his hand.
"this……"
The Second Elder's expression changed upon hearing his words.
However, he didn't seem to be about to explode; he just glared at the people next to him.
"What? You can't accept it if the same thing happens to you?"
Seeing his hesitation, Ning Qi mocked him again.
They didn't take him seriously at all.
"We just got here too, and haven't found any treasure yet!"
"This storage bag contains 500,000 spirit essences; consider it our apology!"
The Second Elder gritted his teeth, took out a storage bag, and tossed it to Ning Qi from a distance.
"Smack!"
Ning Qi didn't stand on ceremony and directly reached out to catch it.
He even deliberately weighed it in his hand for a couple of moments before revealing a satisfied expression: "Get lost, I don't like sharing resources with others."
"Elder!"
"..."
The disciples clearly did not want to let the matter rest so easily.
Just now, Ning Qi and he only exchanged two moves.
There was no clear winner or loser.
He didn't believe that the Second Elder was no match for Ning Qi if he got serious.
"Walk!"
The Second Elder glared at Ning Qi, then waved reluctantly to the disciples in the distance.
"yes!"
"..."
Although everyone was unwilling, they had no other choice.
The Second Elder is the one with the highest authority here.
Since he was about to give up, they couldn't very well continue to pester him.
Moreover, Ning Qi's strength just now far exceeded their expectations. Anyone who could force the Second Elder to retreat must be exceptionally strong.
After everyone had left, Ning Qi turned his attention to the floating fragments of the continent.
"Master, you were so impressive just now!"
The spirit bouncing on his shoulder said.
He was startled by the large number of people around him.
I originally wanted to persuade Ning Qi to leave and avoid the limelight for the time being.
However, before he could even try to persuade him, Ning Qi had already taken action.
Not long after, they dealt with these people directly.
"Let's go, let's go up and see what's on this continent."
Ning Qi ignored Yao Ling's flattery.
Then they headed straight towards the mainland.
This continent is much larger than the ones he visited before.
There is also a complete mountain range.
In one corner of the mountain range, there is a mountain gate.
The mountain gate is not entirely intact.
However, it wasn't completely dilapidated.
"Master, this mountain gate is protected by a restriction."
"No wonder they gave it up willingly!"
The spirit medicine, perched on his shoulder, immediately noticed the problem.
I quickly reminded them.
"Hmph, I knew he wouldn't be so kind."
Ning Qi looked at the location of the mountain gate, then smiled and said, "However, what if he knew that we have the Dao patterns of Ruoshui Sanqian?"
"They'll probably regret giving us this place."
"Master, could they have left spies here?"
"If we break the restrictions, they can then reap the benefits..."
Yao Ling said with some concern.
"Don't worry, we just won't break the restriction."
Ning Qi flew towards the mountain gate, saying to Yao Ling, "If I just merge into it, I can also explore the treasures inside."
"So what if they see it? They still can't get in."
"OK!"
Yao Ling clapped her hands: "They've ruined their wishful thinking!"
"Great! Let's go!"
Ning Qi responded and then sped straight toward the mountain gate ahead.
In the blink of an eye, Ning Qi had already landed in front of the mountain gate.
Looking at the restrictive formation in front of him, he immediately activated the Dao patterns.
With the blessing of the Ruoshui Three Thousand Formation, visible water ripples were formed.
Together they moved towards merging with the restrictions of the mountain gate.
This time, Ning Qi didn't stand still; instead, he walked up directly.
With each inch the ripples penetrate deeper, the water moves forward a small step.
After a while, he completely merged into the mountain gate.
After he blended in, several figures quietly left the surrounding mountains and forests.
Ning Qi was unaware of all this; he was already walking on the stone steps leading to the mountain gate.
"Master, I just saw several people leave!"
Yao Ling, however, kept a close eye on her surroundings.
Upon realizing something was wrong, he immediately informed Ning Qi.
"Ignore them."
"Contact us first."
Ning Qi ignored him and continued walking up the mountain.
Soon, we arrived at the halfway point of the mountain.
There are many cave dwellings here, and Ning Qi has no intention of letting them go unexplored.
Instead, they started searching one by one, and the first place they found was a cave that still had the power of elixirs emanating from it.
Upon entering, they found only some pills and an alchemy furnace.
However, they were all just ordinary pills.
"They're all mine!"
However, this did attract the attention of the medicine spirit.
These things were highly nourishing for him.
They looted everything in one go.
"They basically have all of those things inside over there."
"I feel that some of the resources acquired by the disciples here back then were left here by them!"
Ning Qi pointed in a direction outside and said to Yao Ling, "You search here, I'll go up and check the situation."
"Keep an eye on the people down the mountain. If anyone comes looking for trouble, come up and let me know!"
"OK."
After agreeing, Yao Ling hurriedly went to a nearby cave to find her most nourishing remedy.
Ning Qi, on the other hand, focused his attention on what was ahead.
Continuing uphill, we soon arrived at a square.
Around the square are three large halls, and nearby are several pavilions.
What attracted Ning Qi was not these grand halls, but a corpse standing in the center of the square.
The body was large, a size larger than an average person.
He was wearing a set of black armor, and even though he had been dead for so long, there were still wisps of black energy surging on the armor.
This is enough to prove how powerful this person was in life.
He stood ramrod straight, giving off an aura of authority without needing to be angry.
Looking at his body again, you can feel the explosive power in his muscles.
"Excuse me!"
After carefully examining it for a while, Ning Qi didn't mince words.
He immediately put it into his storage bag, planning to study the corpse when he had time.
After collecting the body, he turned his attention back to the main hall in front of him.
When we arrived at one of them, we found the main hall to be completely empty.
Only in the central position were there some jade tablets placed among individual jade slips.
This is obviously the token of all the inner disciples of this mountain gate.
Unfortunately, they're useless now; the owners of these tokens have probably been dead for countless years.
Ning Qi looked around again and, after confirming that there was nothing there, moved to the outside of another main hall.
The place is resplendent in gold, and there is a dragon-shaped chair in the main seat.
It's clearly the seat of the sect leader of this mountain gate. There are two rows of seats on each side, all made of spirit stones.
Ning Qi stepped forward and sat in the main seat for a while.
I didn't find anything, but I became more and more curious about the chair, so I sat down.
Take a look at this chair that no one has sat in for who knows how many years.
"call!"
"Click!"
However, the moment he sat down, a crisp metallic twisting sound came from under the seat.
Ning Qi sensed something was wrong and tried to sit up, but it was too late.
"Bang!"
The seat sank down and then flipped over.
Caught off guard, Ning Qi was thrown towards the dark hole below.
He was capable enough to leave.
However, seeing the hidden passages and mechanisms here made him abandon his idea of leaving.
They leaped directly down and landed dozens of feet underground.
This time, I saw what was here.
The surroundings were empty, with only a door standing in front of him.
In addition, there were some corpses lying haphazardly in front of the gate, but they did not have the strength of the black-armored giant from before.
They had long since rotted away, becoming nothing more than skeletons.
Ning Qi paid no attention to the skeletons, but focused his attention on the stone gate in front of him.
Looking at the stone gate in front of me, I felt a little strange.
It is entirely white, with some totems engraved on it.
It consists mostly of plants, and a few animals.
Ning Qi looked at it for a while, then slowly reached out to touch the stone door in front of him.
However, he suddenly stopped just before reaching the stone gate.
At that moment, he clearly sensed that there was a crisis here.
He glanced at the pile of bones on the ground and couldn't help but smile.
I almost got myself tricked because of my recklessness.
Ning Qi thought to himself, then completely withdrew his hand.
Immediately, it retreated and arrived at an open space several dozen feet away.
He picked up a withered bone from the ground and then infused it with a pure stream of immortal power.
He then threw the withered bones toward the stone gate.
"Smack!"
After a loud bang, the stone gate began to tremble slowly.
The dust on top began to stir, but the stone door showed no sign of opening.
"Whoosh!"
"call out!"
The next moment, a sudden change occurred. (End of Chapter)
