Chapter 82: Ning Bei and Jiujiu Rushed Toward Each Other, and the system Wanted to Unbind After Being Milked Dry.
Following the system’s hint…
Ning Bei already knew that the Xusheng Realm was a plane far higher than the Cangxuan Continent, its overall power several tiers above.
The moment he entered, he felt it deeply and murmured, “This spiritual energy is almost on par with the spirit spring inside the Shura Secret Realm back then.”
Cultivating here with the same talent would certainly yield higher gains than on the Cangxuan Continent.
“An entire month… I finally made it.”
Stepping on solid ground again, Ning Bei could not help sighing.
On the way he had once doubted that the system had given him the wrong direction, for he saw nothing but endless sea for more than 20 days.
There had not even been a single place to set foot.
No wonder the Cangxuan Continent held no records of the Xusheng Realm; with the ceiling of cultivation there, it was almost impossible to cross the ocean and reach this place.
Even with countless Deer-Antler Melon Seeds and his lightning speed, Ning Bei barely arrived within a month.
Without taking much rest, Ning Bei hurried to “borrow money” and exchanged for a tracking talisman.
“Bind it to Jiujiu and find her.”
Ning Bei activated it as he spoke.
[Congratulations, Host, big wife Qin Jiujiu has been bound.]
[Reminder, Host, the system is only offering Revenge Point loans because of this accident; please repay them promptly to avoid interest.]
Ning Bei ignored the warning and followed the route indicated on the talisman.
Yet after a while, he noticed something odd.
He had flown almost several thousand li, yet the distance to Qin Jiujiu shown on the talisman had not shortened at all.
As a beneficiary of 9 years of compulsory education, he knew the “map” scale was simply too large.
This meant the Xusheng Realm was far bigger than he had imagined… perhaps thousands of times larger than the Cangxuan Continent… and he and Qin Jiujiu were still extremely far apart.
Therefore, Ning Bei opened the System Shop again, scrolled to an item, and said, “System, lend me another 3,000,000 Revenge Points so I can redeem a flying cloud skiff; I’ll pay everything back next time.”
[Sorry, you can’t afford it.]
“…”
Ning Bei’s mouth twitched hard.
Still, he was not one to give up easily and pleaded, “Please, baby… just one last time… really, the very last time… I feel like ants are crawling all over me… it’s killing me… lend me a little more, please…”
Moments later.
A gigantic flying cloud skiff appeared out of thin air.
Whoosh!
Ning Bei turned into a bolt of lightning, landed on the skiff, and controlled it by thought, flying along the talisman’s route.
Its speed surpassed even his own lightning form.
“Sweet!”
Standing on the deck with both hands on the rail, Ning Bei enjoyed the breeze like a spring day.
This was far better than flying himself.
No wonder borrowing money was addictive.
Only those who borrowed knew the feeling.
[Host, please remember this is only a temporary loan and you must pay the usage fee.]
Ning Bei gave no reply; after all, once you used certain things, ownership no longer mattered.
Take Yuan Yuan, for example.
“So fast!”
Seeing that the distance to his little wife on the talisman had actually begun to shrink, Ning Bei was overjoyed.
It would not be long before they met.
When that happened, he would give her an electric hug first.
“Shoot it down!”
A deep voice drifted over at that moment.
“Huh?”
Ning Bei looked down.
He saw a group of cultivators staring up at the skiff, already forming techniques to attack it.
Ning Bei frowned slightly; pressed for time, he ignored them, knowing that with the skiff’s speed they could never catch up.
Sure enough, the people below did not continue the pursuit.
“Elder, that artifact is too fast.”
“Indeed.”
The leader stroked his beard and said, “I don’t know which force owns that treasure… impressive… but it will soon belong to someone else.”
The man beside him nodded and added, “A treasure like that piloted by a single youth… tsk-tsk, a child carrying gold through the market… utterly foolish.”
“It’s a pity we can’t stop him; the skiff is headed straight toward those thieves of the Xuanmo Sect.”
Elsewhere.
Ning Bei had already realized that the Xusheng Realm was a higher plane, its cultivators far stronger than those of the Cangxuan Continent, and the danger was multiplied.
Now that he was riding a flying cloud skiff, such a priceless treasure would surely draw covetous eyes.
Earlier he could escape on speed alone, but that might not work later.
So he resorted to the old trick again and begged, “Baby, I want an add-on for the skiff… please, baby… really the last time… I feel like ants are crawling all over me… I’m miserable, baby… you don’t want the skiff stolen, do you?”
Moments later.
A mystic cannon was mounted on the once bare deck, able to defend or attack in 360 degrees with no blind spots.
Gripping the handles, Ning Bei felt utterly secure. “Baby, you’ll be the little wife from now on.”
Ding!
[Reminder, Host, the cannon draws on your own power as its energy source; its might depends on your cultivation.]
[Warning, Host, system unbinding in progress…]
Ning Bei: “???”
Boom!
At that instant the skiff shuddered violently.
A pitch-black barrier appeared directly ahead and forcibly halted the skiff, proving it was no ordinary barrier.
“This airspace belongs to the Xuanmo Sect, opened by Xuanmo himself; to pass here, leave your life behind!”
With the proclamation, several powerful auras pressed down.
Following the voice, Ning Bei saw more than a dozen men in identical black robes, all at the Divine Transformation Realm.
“We’re still far from the Xusheng Realm’s center, and Divine Transformation experts are already as common as dogs… truly terrifying.”
Ning Bei sighed.
He did not wish to make enemies, so he tossed some spirit items downward and said, “Please make way, or I will kill you all.”
“?”
The dozen men froze for a second, then burst into uproarious laughter.
“Brothers, how long has it been since we met such a blockhead?”
“Haha, what a calf that fears no tiger. We can let you pass… walk away yourself and leave that artifact.”
“Boy, we’re in a good mood today, so we’ll spare your life; go home and ask your parents what kind of existence the Xuanmo Sect is.”
“…”
Seeing no peaceful solution, Ning Bei knitted his sword-like brows.
In the next moment he grabbed the cannon handles and aimed the muzzle at the dozen men. “Gentlemen, I’ll say it one last time… don’t make me waste time exterminating your sect.”
Exterminate the sect?
Staring at the tiny cannon barrel, the dozen men laughed even harder.
At that moment they all wondered whose runaway young master this was.
Playing with cannons in a cultivation world?
No one would scold you even if you played with girls!
The middle-aged leader even stepped forward two paces, arrogantly pointing at Ning Bei and the cannon.
“Come on, fire it right at my face!”
