Cultivating with Top Enlightenment

Chapter 878: Chapter 373: Moon Sea Immortal Sect (Part 2)

”Did you really think none of this happened?”

Gu Qingyan’s barrage of words left Zhou Hanshan speechless.

Zhou Hanshan finally glared at Gu Qingyan with resentment, and when he looked at Ning Qi again, he realized that whether it was Ning Qi, Leng Qingao, or the army of cultivators under them, everyone’s eyes were full of coldness when they looked at him.

Obviously, no matter what he said, there was absolutely no way to prevent Ning Qi from heading to their Zhou Mountain Immortal Sect.

Moreover, Gu Qingyan’s continuous remarks had spoken to everyone’s hearts.

Zhou Hanshan simply left, no longer staying there to be looked down upon by everyone.

Ning Qi’s eyes slightly lowered.

While Gu Qingyan’s words seemed to be a retort to Zhou Hanshan, they actually reminded of one thing.

The Profound Truth Realm had already been moved by the Sea Ancestor near the Moon Sea Immortal Sect.

Whether this was the Sea Ancestor valuing him or threatening him, Ning Qi couldn’t say.

”Let’s go, Taoist Friend Ning, I think their Zhou Mountain Immortal Sect might send someone to harass you, it’s better to head to my Moon Sea Immortal Sect early.”

Ning Qi replied lightly, ”Alright!”

With Gu Qingyan leading the way, they quickly made their way to the Moon Sea Immortal Sect’s location.

Ning Qi secretly scanned the situation in the Central Domain.

These blood mists were completely unable to obscure his spiritual sense.

Previously, when he entered the Central Domain, he had already glimpsed its full view, not to mention now having passed the Harmonization Tribulation.

The ability of the blood mist to limit cultivators was based on the strength of the practitioner; Ning Qi was undoubtedly an anomaly among them.

Ning Qi guessed that the blood mist probably couldn’t block the spiritual sense of sect leaders at the level of the three great sects, whereas other cultivators would see as far as their cultivation allowed.

Behind Ning Qi, Leng Qingao and their respective cultivators were filled with curiosity about the situation inside the Central Domain.

They had fought fiercely in the Outer Domain, so why did things become calm upon entering the Central Domain?

Before long, Ning Qi and Leng Qingao arrived near the center, slightly to the left of the Central Domain.

A solitary figure stood quietly ahead, with a beautiful silhouette, as if cast by water, and no one within ten meters of her.

Beyond ten meters, a neatly arranged army could be seen, and the formation they stood in was instantly recognized by Ning Qi.

It was a Tidal Wave Layer Array!

This formation was extremely adept at stacking the strength of cultivators, allowing them to combine their power and unleash wave after wave of formidable attacks.

How many layers of strength could be stacked and by how many times they were amplified depended on the overall power of the cultivators and the expertise of their leader.

Perceiving Ning Qi and his company’s arrival,

the beautiful figure gazing at the central boundary wall suddenly turned around.

Her eyes were as blue as the sea, with a gentle depth that could draw anyone into her ocean-like gaze, leaving them helplessly captivated.

”Taoist Friend Ning.”

Zhao Yujun, as the sect leader of the Moon Sea Immortal Sect founded by the Sea Ancestor, only ranked below the Sea Ancestor in capability.

Though her aura was not obvious, there was a transcendent quality to her similar to that of Ning Qi.

Now, Zhao Yujun also addressed Ning Qi as Taoist Friend, clearly not taking him lightly, but treating him as an equal.

With a slight smile, two dimples appeared at the corners of her mouth, and she proactively extended her hand.

Ning Qi landed beside her and shook the extended hand.

”Daoist Zhao.”

Their hands shook with mutual testing intentions.

Ning Qi felt as though his right hand was bound by the deep sea, yet he didn’t sense drowning.

He immediately comprehended a trace of Zhao Yujun’s conviction from her aura.

This woman, as flowing as water, possessed a belief that was not weak but rather akin to how the highest goodness resembles water—enduring, persistent, and unbreakably penetrating through stone.

This was the first time Ning Qi sensed such formidable conviction from a cultivator within the Mountain and Sea Realm.

Across from him, Zhao Yujun’s graceful form trembled slightly.

She looked at her own palm, fair as warm jade, now separated from Ning Qi’s hand.

Her blue eyes rippled with surprise!

Ning Qi had unexpectedly easily freed himself from her grasp, which Zhao Yujun found somewhat unbelieving.

The great Dao she excelled in, she believed, aside from the Mountain Ancestor and Sea Ancestor, no other person in the Mountain and Sea Realm could escape so quickly—not even Zhou Mountain Immortal Sect’s Sect Leader Gong Tiandao!

Zhao Yujun withdrew her hand, letting her sleeve fall to conceal it.

She smiled, ”Taoist Friend Ning truly lives up to being a cultivator who has overcome the Thirty-Sixfold Tribulation; Yujun is impressed.”

Ning Qi politely replied, ”Having met Daoist Zhao today, Ning finally realizes how high the heavens are and how deep the sea is.”

It seemed that Zhao Yujun, as the sect leader of the Moon Sea Immortal Sect, had not encountered a cultivator with whom she could converse as an equal in many years.

Ning Qi’s appearance filled that role perfectly.

Her expression held a touch more authenticity.

Behind her, the cultivators of the Moon Sea Immortal Sect were momentarily stunned to see their sect leader smile several times.

Although Sect Leader Zhao was a woman, she fully inherited the Sea Ancestor’s will; treating her as a weakling or easygoing would be a grave mistake.

One could say that within the Mountain and Sea Realm, due to the enmity between the Sea Ancestor and the Mountain Ancestor,

the Sea Ancestor was previously defeated by the Mountain Ancestor, resulting in constant friction between their immortal sects.

However, their Sect Leader Zhao had surpassed the Zhou Mountain Immortal Sect’s Sect Leader Gong Tiandao several times, leading the Moon Sea Immortal Sect to victory over the Zhou Mountain Immortal Sect on multiple occasions.

From this, the fearsome nature beneath Zhao Yujun’s gentle appearance could be discerned!

Ning Qi wasn’t aware of these facts.

As their hands parted, Ning Qi’s heart retained no grievances.

”Sect Leader Zhao, now that we meet here, does the Sea Ancestor have any instructions?”

Although Ning Qi had now stepped into Harmonization, he continued to adhere to the practice of cautious pursuit.
