Chapter 273 Mo Lan’s Thoughts, Situation Reversal
Duan Chaofeng, who was watching from the side, also revealed a look of delight.
With Xu Ning’s increase in strength, their safety would be greatly secured.
‘Breaking through just like that…’
Mo Lan’s expression did not change, but her eyes flashed with surprise.
In the dao realm, every breakthrough required much preparation.
Moreover, the process of breaking through usually took a lot of time.
Those who had weak foundations would require to make preparations a month in advance to break through.
But Xu Ning only took such a short time.
Mo Lan had heard of Xu Ning’s name before. It was Сen Yumou and Liang Tingang who told her about the Swallow Heron Sect being rebuilt.
At that time, Xu Ning was only a dao realm third stage master. But now, after a year, he had advanced to the fifth stage of the dao realm.
‘This person is really powerful…’
Mo Lan’s mind was spinning. ‘If he returns to State Wansheng alive, he will definitely be promoted by Duan Chaofeng. With the support of the Harmony King Mansion, with his talent, he will likely become a big shot in State Wansheng.’
The big shots in State Wansheng that Mo Lan was thinking of were at the level of the Red Sea Demon Lord. Just the strength of one person could make countless powerhouses feel reverence. Even within the Duan royal family, many people respected the Red Sea Demon Lord. ‘Even if he can’t become a top figure like the Red Sea Demon Lord, he is very likely to break through to the ninth stage of the dao realm in the future and explore the limits of the dao realm…’
‘However, there is a feud between me and this person…’
Mo Lan felt that this situation was a little tricky.
If she wanted to repair the relationship between her and Xu Ning, she had to first resolve the misunderstanding between the two.
‘Fortunately, I did not interfere with the dissolution of the Swallow Heron Sect. There is still hope for reconciliation…’
Mo Lan thought, ‘If there is a chance, after returning to State Wansheng, I will try to be friendly to him… After all, there is no direct feud between us. If there are enough benefits, we might be able to improve our relationship.’
However, Mo Lan was not sure what Xu Ning was thinking “As we continue to fly ahead, the thinner the spiritual energy will get.”
Xu Ning said to Zhang He and Duan Chaofeng, “In an environment with thin spiritual energy, our energy consumption will be huge. Moreover, there are six people on the opposite side, so they would definitely hold the advantage in a continuous battle. Considering all this, we might as well take the initiative to attack.”
“Take the initiative to attack?” Zhang He and Duan Chaofeng’s eyes twitched. “Are you confident?”
Zhang He was still a little hesitant, because he was worried that Duan Chaofeng would encounter danger.
Even if Duan Chaofeng hid in a spatial secret treasure, if the secret treasure was affected, he would turn into dust in the spatial turbulence.
“Yes.”
Xu Ning’s answer was confident.
Xu Ning’s foundation was extremely strong. After breaking through, he was comparable to a dao realm sixth stage core transformation realm martial artist.
Coupled with the Wind Smoke Gourd and the special dao weapon, the Cyan Wolf Knife, which was comparable to a half-step secret treasure, no one could defeat Xu Ning except for a high-level dao realm seventh stage master.
“In this case, let’s fight back!”
Duan Chaofeng agreed and supported him.
“Then we will enter the spatial secret treasure and not be a burden.”
Mo Lan said on the side.
Xu Ning and Zhang He glanced at her at the same time but did not answer.
They didn’t have a good impression of Mo Lan, but because of her status, they couldn’t face her in a confrontational manner.
Duan Chaofeng glanced at Mo Lan and finally acknowledged her idea.
Afterwards, Duan Chaofeng and Mo Lan both entered a spatial treasure. Zhang He put away the spatial treasure carefully.
“Time to fight!”
After making preparations, Zhang He took out his spear dao weapon.
He had a secret treasure, but it was a support type treasure used for cultivation, so he couldn’t use it in battle.
Thus, the combat power of the current Zhang He might even be weaker than Xu Ning.
Zhang He controlled the rainbow-colored bird under him to turn around and face the people chasing them.
“Huh?”
Lie Ying and the others, who were still worried about losing their prey, suddenly noticed that the rainbow-colored bird in front of them was turning around and flying towards them.
“Have they become retarded? Are they trying to come right back into our hands?”
When some gray-robed people saw this, they smiled excitedly.
As for Lie Ying, he felt a little uneasy.
Afterwards, with a thought, he released two more flying demon beasts from his spatial treasure, both of which were ordinary mid-level dao realm.
“Lie Ying, aren’t you being too cautious!”
Another gray-robed man smiled and said, “Our targets, the Harmony Prince and the Promise Princess, were obviously put into a spatial treasure. We can easily crush the remaining two!”
“It’s better to be careful.”
Lie Ying said.
After a few breaths, the two sides met.
“Hand over the Harmony Prince and the Promise Princess, and I will spare your lives!”
Lie Ying looked at Xu Ning and Zhang He, who were full of fighting spirit, and said with a hint of warning in his tone. However, the others ignored Lie Ying. They each held their own dao weapons and rushed towards Xu Ning and Zhang He.
The weakest of them was in the fifth stage of the dao realm. Although they could not fly, it was not difficult to fight in the air.
“How reckless!”
Seeing that the others had already taken action, Lie Ying could only follow.
Not only was he attacking personally, but he was also dispatching his mid level dao realm demon beasts to besiege Xu Ning and Zhang He.
“Here they come!”
Xu Ning and Zhang He were not afraid at all, even though they were outnumbered.
However, Zhang He was very cautious, in case the spatial treasure which Duan Chaofeng and Mo Lan was in was damaged by the battle.
“Wind Smoke Gourd!”
Xu Ning used his trump card the instant he engaged in battle.
Whoosh!
The gray fog instantly enveloped the gray-robed men. “Be careful of this gray fog. Not only can it isolate perception, but it also has the power of poison!”
Lie Ying was a Master Tamer with a wide range of knowledge.
With Lie Ying’s prompt, the others were ready. “Huh?”
Xu Ning’s eyes narrowed.
Xu Ning had already sensed that the suppression brought by the gray fog was greatly weakened.
‘Although the gray fog still has the power to isolate perception and release the lethal poisonous miasma, its power is greatly reduced when facing these dao realm fifth or even sixth stage masters.’
Xu Ning discovered that the poisonous miasma could no longer cause fatal injuries to them, and their perception could not be completely blocked.
‘But it doesn’t matter, my current strength is my greatest confidence!’
Xu Ning activated the will of the cyan wolf in the Cyan Wolf Knife.
Whoosh!
Two slashes.
The two mid level dao realm demon beasts controlled by Lie Ying were cut in half.
‘He is actually so strong?’
Xu Ning killed two mid level dao realm demon beasts with two casual strikes.
Those two demon beasts were comparable to the fifth stage of the dao realm.
Even Xu Ning didn’t expect his combat power to have reached this level after his internal core had been cleansed sixty times.
‘Sure enough, the positive benefits that come from the foundation I have set in the void realm will become more and more obvious as I rise up in realm!’
Xu Ning’s eyes lit up.
“What?!”
Xu Ning’s effortless kills stunned everyone.
‘Didn’t Xu Ning just break through to the core cleansing realm? Even with the help of a secret treasure, he can’t be this strong, right?’
Zhang He’s thoughts paused for a moment, then he was overjoyed. He could already see the hope of defeating these gray-robed men.
“Ha!”
Zhang He’s fighting spirit soared.
‘How is this person so strong!’
The gray-robed men were also stunned.
According to what Chu He told them, wasn’t there only one dao realm sixth stage among them?
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Xu Ning seized the opportunity when they were stunned and attacked again.
He borrowed the force in the air and almost floated in the air.
Several knives slashed out again, and the astral qi activated by the power of the dao realm was extremely fierce.
Pfft!
Another gray-robed man was beheaded by Xu Ning
Xu Ning first placed the three dao realm fifth stage core cleansing realm masters as his targets.
“Not good! Go and stop him!”
Lie Ying noticed Xu Ning’s intentions and quickly joined up with the others to stop Xu Ning’s calculative kills.
But Xu Ning did not give them a chance.
His aura surged as he fought back with pure strength.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
After a flurry of attacks, only three sixth stage dao realm masters were left.
Even the two gray-feathered birds below them had been killed.
This person is invincible!’
This was the only thought in the minds of the remaining three gray-robed men.
“Brother Zhang, let’s fight them together!”
Xu Ning shouted to Zhang He.
“Okay!”
Zhang He was excited.
Two against three, but the situation had been reversed.
Instantly, blade lights and sword shadows flew everywhere.
Many sea demon beasts sensed the terrifying aftershock of the battle and avoided it.
The battle continued.
Pfft!
Xu Ning slashed again and a gray-robed dao realm sixth stage master was killed.
Afterwards, his combat power increased, and in another few breaths, another gray-robed man was killed.
In this battle, Xu Ning and Zhang He were not injured at all.
“I surrender, let me off!”
The remaining Lie Ying no longer had any resistance.
“Surrender?”
Zhang He sneered and was about to join Xu Ning to kill this person.
However, Lie Ying suddenly said, “I know Chu He’s weakness, I can help you defeat him!” “Who is Chu He? Is he your leader?” Xu Ning and Zhang He paused when they heard him.
“That’s right!”
When Lie Ying saw this, he quickly said, “The two high level dao realm masters on your side are restricted by the Binding Lock, so they must be struggling to resist Chu He, but I can help you deal with him!”
“You traitor, how can we believe you?”
Zhang He didn’t believe Lie Ying at all.
“I just joined them not long ago, so I have no loyalty to them. I just joined them in exchange for benefits. Now that the situation is like this, I am willing to sincerely submit to you!”
In order to save his life, Lie Ying also showed an extremely humble attitude.
