  An Yi also nodded and said, “Yes Big Brother Ning, if I had the symbol mark, I would certainly would not be able to find it. Maybe I would have to strip naked to let you carefully find it.”

  When Ning Cheng heard An Yi speak, although An Yi was speaking about the wellbeing of both of them, it still felt a bit hilarious. How could he let An Yi strip and help her slowly find the symbol? But Ning Cheng sensed that what An Yi said, it certainly wasn’t funny, she would definitely have to undress to find the symbol, otherwise how would they be able to escape that Taoist Pu?

  Seeing Ning Cheng put on his cloths, the previous awkwardness in An Yi was long gone, and she took the initiative again and put the medicinal powder on Ning Cheng’s wound,

  After wearing the clothes, Ning Cheng felt helpless, if he could not raise his cultivation, then he did not know if his decision to come to the Mingot Sea was right or wrong? He had chosen to come to the Mingot Sea Area partly because his parents had gone missing here.

  When he had not been reborn, he would often dream about this, as he had been living in the Cang Qin Province for his entire life. Now that dream had finally become a reality, but Ning Cheng was still a bit suspicious, it was as if the body in which he was reborn into was not that of a stranger, but rather his past life.

  It was also because of this, that he in his life on Earth did not have any affection towards his parents.

  Ning Cheng knew that he had acquired the Storage Bag of the man from the beach, he desperately wanted to look at what was in the Storage Bag, and thus took out the Storage Bag, but still held back the idea, and instead he first took out the Jade Card he had picked up from him.

  The light in the reef cave was very weak, but the words on the Jade Card were very clear, it read, Blue Flame 4 Star Academy’s Third Elder, Xue Tai Chu.

  He did not know if the status of a Third Elder in an Academy was high or not, but Ning Cheng was very clear about the status of a 4 Star Academy. A 4 Star Academy was equivalent to a true country, Cang Qin Province was just a small vessel state, forced with nowhere to go, he ended up killing an elder of a 4 Star Academy, once this was out, would he still have a chance to survive?

  Ji Luo Fei’s Aunt was merely an errand teacher of the 5 Star Academy, but at Cang Qin Academy, she could go anywhere she wanted. This Xue Tai Chu was an Elder; their positions couldn’t be compared in any way.

  An Yi also saw the sign on top of the character, she was somewhat worried and asked, “Big Brother Ning, are we in trouble?”

  Ning Cheng again looked at the Jade Card, that he had just acquired, stood up, shook his head and spoke, “There is no trouble, as long as we don’t meet anyone from Blue Flame 4 Star Academy. The most important thing right now is to improve one’s own cultivation level, if there comes a day where we can surpass the Essence Building Realm, then a 4 Star Academy would also be nothing to worry about.”

  Ning Cheng comforted An Yi but his own heart, however, wasn’t. He didn’t know of the capability of a 4 Star Academy, previously, a Cultivator at the Qi Gathering 3rd Level was able to put a mark of a Talisman on his body without him noticing, this 4 Star Academy’s Elder and that cultivator were clearly not on the same level, there was difference of over ten million times. Could one find two of such of existences as easily? Ning Cheng didn’t dare want to find out.

  Grabbing the Storage Bag, he looked over it for a long while, only then did he ask, “An Yi, how do you open this Storage Bag?”

  An Yi immediately explained, “We at the Qi Gathering Realm don’t possess a Spiritual Sense, but rather we have Spiritual Thought. We can use our Spiritual Thought to communicate with the Storage Bag, if it doesn’t open, we can slowly try lift the Restrictions put on it. However, ……”

  An Yi spoke till lifting the Restrictions, she immediately recalled that lifting Restrictions required one to have some knowledge about Restriction Techniques. Whether Ning Cheng understood them or not, she was not clear on it.

  Ning Cheng knew about Spiritual Thought, after An Yi finished speaking, he immediately used his Spiritual Thought to communicate with the Storage Bag in his hand. But, Ning Cheng immediately became aware that this was useless. This Storage Bag completely lacked any reaction when he tried to communicate with it through his Spiritual Thought. Afterwards, he could only try touching the strange seal, but these seals were all similar to iron locks which he could not open.

  An Yi saw that Ning Cheng didn’t understand anything about Restrictions, so she simply took out a book and gave it to Ning Cheng while saying, “Big brother Ning, this is a Basic Array Formation Methods book given to me by my master, you can take a look at it.”

  If it was something else, Ning Cheng would certainly not welcome it, since at present he didn’t quite even understand spell techniques, and right now, as he could not open the Storage Bag so he couldn’t know what was inside this Storage Bag. Therefore, seeing An Yi handing over the books on the Basic Array Formation Methods, Ning Cheng did not hesitate to receive it, after a moment of thought, he opened the book.

  ……

  An Yi stared blankly at Ning Cheng, as Ning Cheng consecutively read the book for three hours, she could only see him unceasingly flipping over the pages of the book, he only stopped for a moment when he made some gestures with his hands, his facial expression also constantly changed as he continued to read.

  These were all Array Formations, coming into contact with Array Formations for the first time, when master was teaching her, she was only able to learn up to the third page. When she was able to comprehend those three pages, her master said that she was a genius, but compared to her Big Brother Ning, just what was going on with him?

  An Yi really wanted to ask Ning Cheng, but she was afraid that she would annoy him. She could only silently wait for Ning Cheng to wake from reading that book on Foundation Array Methods, only after that, could she ask him.

  Ning Cheng could not know what An Yi was thinking. From the time he opened up the book, he could only see that there were various types of Array Formations, many technical terms relating to the Array Formations and also the descriptions of the positions of the various Array Flags required, their refinement and explanations including their uses………

  These all naturally formed and fixed themselves in his mind, even before his consciousness appeared to correct them, allowing him to not only understand these stuffs, but also helping him in automatically correcting these Fundamental Array Formations.

  At this point, in his mind, there emerged another Array Formation Method, this method was based on the original Array Formation Method. However, this newly formed method, was formed by modifying the original method and automatically correcting it to form an even more comprehensive Array Formation.

  The vast knowledge of the Array Formations and Ning Cheng’s automatically correcting consciousness combined, made Ning Cheng appear as if he was a sponge soaking water.

  His formidable comprehension ability and powerful memory played a very big role at this time.

  ……

  At a place, several hundred kilometres away from Ning Cheng, four people were forced together in a difficult situation. These four people were exactly the ones who had travelled with Ning Cheng in the beast carriage, who were getting ready to team up to go to Lansha island together.

  “Those two people fighting in the air are absolutely in the later stages of the Essence Building Realm, what a terrible power.” Feng Fei Zhang spoke with a lingering fear in his heart.

  Miao Xiu Ming and Tian Fei also nodded, very much approving Feng Fei Zhang’s words. That battle in the gorge, they, together with few others had been able to see. If they had been even a little bit slow in escaping, the after-effects of that battle could have very well killed them.

  “Hey, how come those two have still not returned? Could they not have been able to escape?” said Miao Xiu Ming when he saw that Ning Cheng and An Yi hadn’t arrived. Even if Ning Cheng hadn’t been able to escape, however An Yi, with her dewy lik
e appearance, if she was killed, then it would make him feel a great sense of shame.

  Taoist Pu slightly smiled and replied, “Those young people ought to be very clever, I clearly saw him rush out first, their escape should not be a problem. I was able to see the direction in which they ran, but since they have still not arrived till now, I estimate that they probably weren’t able to find us, we will continue to walk in the direction in which they escape.”

  Feng Fei Zhang also nodded in agreement, the Mingot Sea was not very far, once they were able to find Ning Cheng and An Yi, they can arrive at the Mingot City in a day’s time.

  When Taoist Pu spoke of locating Ning Cheng and An Yi, there was no objection from any of them, not because they were afraid of Ning Cheng. But because Ning Cheng and An Yi had a copy each of the Lansha Island’s map, if it was not taken away from Ning Cheng, then for them, it would not be a good thing.

  “Brother Pu, why did you stop walking?” Seeing Taoist Pu stop walking, Feng Fei Zhang asked in a puzzled voice.

  Taoist Pu’s face changed slightly, but he still continued to walk forward for a kilometre and then stopped again, this time he did not wait for the rest for the people and took the initiative to speak, and said, “Brother Feng, I guess Ning Cheng and his cousin An Yi could not escape that disaster, we might as well go the Mingot City and then find a few more people, what do you say?”

  The reason why Taoist Pu said this was because he saw Ning Cheng drop the two copies of the route map. He had placed a mark of a Talisman on each of the copies of the route map that he had handed out before and thus he had the confidence that he could search for them easily. Even if he saw him take away the two route maps, but because his connection to the mark of the Talisman that he had placed on them was completely cut off, he could no longer sense them, and thus he stopped.

  Whether Ning Cheng and An Yi was dead or if they managed to escape, at least for now, he had no way to find out.

  This Taoist Pu was very clever, since he did not leave to pick the route map that was in the possession of Ning Cheng, the remaining few people also had no suspicion towards his words. Now that this Taoist Pu said that it would be hard to find Ning Cheng, and in addition also proposed to go to the Mingot City to look for more partners, they obviously did not have any objections to it.

  Taoist Pu was the one who handed out the route map, if he himself doesn’t mind to recover it, why would the others care about it?

  ……

  When Ning Cheng opened his eyes, the book was almost one third finished, he immediately saw An Yi staring at him.

  “An Yi, why are you looking at me like that?” Although Ning Cheng asked this, he was still immersed in the joy of studying the basic Array Formations, he now felt that he had been exposed to such a new and vast field. He finally understood what Array Formations stood for, what the so called Restrictions were, and why and how Arrays Formation operated.

  “I did not think you would be able to read hundreds of millions of words in one go, you see it’s already been three days and three nights since you started studying that book, are you not hungry?” An Yi implored, when she saw that Ning Cheng had finally woken up.

  Before she had only heard her master say that one can get engrossed in trying to comprehend all kinds of things to such an extent that one would even forget themselves, and today she, for the first time, saw that someone could read almost a hundred million words in one go, completely forgetting about themselves.

  When Ning Cheng heard what An Yi said, he immediately felt an intense hunger hitting him, but then he immediately smelt a strange smell coming from his body. By going into a three-day retreat while at the same time gaining enlightenment regarding the Array Formations, some of the impurities and odours were automatically squeezed out of his body.

  “You wait for me for a while.” Ning Cheng embarrassingly mumbled these words to An Yi, and quickly climbed out of the cave, then he proceeded to take off his clothes and cleaned them along with his body in the seawater and also using his Dust Removal Technique he had learned before, after his clothes were thoroughly cleaned and odour free, only then did he put them back on and entered the cave again.

  Seeing Ning Cheng come back clean and tidy, An Yi finally let out a smile. Then she took out a few pieces of dried rations and gave them to Ning Cheng and said, “It’s better if you first eat something.”

  Ning Cheng couldn’t wait anymore and immediately swallowed the food down, and once again picked up the Storage Bag.

  “Big Brother Ning, the Storage Bag should have some Restrictions placed, there is no way for you in three days to……” An Yi had not yet finished speaking, when she looked at Ning Cheng with shock in her eyes, and said, “Big Brother Ning Cheng, you actually are able to open the Storage Bag?”

  Ning Cheng just laughed and said, “It is not that difficult, not difficult at all. The Restriction placed on it was very simple, I just casually looked at the books you gave for a few days and was ready to go.”

  An Yi sat there dumbfounded for quite a while, and then said, “Big Brother Ning, for a cultivator, Array Formations Methods are the most difficult, it is even several times more difficult than cultivation, how can you say it that it is not difficult?”

  “The Restriction placed on the Storage Bag was very simple, so…….” After Ning Cheng subconsciously said this sentence, he corrected himself and said, “Well, I can’t say that it was not difficult, at the beginning when I was examining it, I thought that half an hour to an hour would be enough to successfully dispel it, but apparently it will take several days more, it seems deploying the Array Formation is a bit harder than lifting a simple Restriction.”

  Listening to Ning Cheng admit that Array Formations were a bit hard, An Yi also agreed with a nod. Her thoughts were simple and pure, one would think that she was a bit stupid compared to many smart and clever people like Ning Cheng. So seeing Ning Cheng laughing through the explanation, even then she agreed to it. As for Ning Cheng’s way of speaking, she had already gotten used to it.

  On the usage of the Storage Bag, Ning Cheng had already familiarised himself with it. He raised his hands and brought out hundreds of white stones. These hundreds of white stones, seemed to contain an extremely rich Qi.

  “Hey, these are pure Qi Gathering Stones. At that time, I only saw a dark yellow Qi Gathering Stone, but these stones are actually milky white, this really is a new thing.” Ning Cheng held a white stone as he heaved a sigh and said.

  Ji Luo Fei in order to help him get a Qi Gathering Stone, went through a lot, and even almost got killed in obtaining it. Today, he was able to acquire more than 100 of these stones, and at the same time they were pure Qi Gathering Stones.

  An Yi said from the side, “Big Brother Ning, the thing that you’re holding in your hands is not a Qi Gathering Stone, but a Spirit Stone. The thing in your hand is a Low Grade Spirit Stone, my master said that Spirit Stones are a top grade commodity.”

  “Spirit Stone?” this was the first time that Ning Cheng heard the word ‘Spirit Stone’, but he felt that these two words were a more appropriate name for these pieces of stone.

  An Yi just humphed and said, “A Low Grade Spirit Stone can be exchanged for a hundred Qi Gathering Stones, but this is just the starting market price. Qi Gathering Stones are generally used for cultivation by low level Qi Gathering Cultivators, although they are rare, they can still be found easily. But a Spirit Stone is a bit different, the Spiritual Qi contained in it is extremely rich. This helps in raising one’s cultivation level even more, initially my master had given me a Spirit Stone. This time you were able to get so many, you would now certainly be able to raise your cultivation level by several times.”

  Ning Cheng suddenly realized, no wonder that this stone did not feel like a Qi Gathering Stone, he would now no lo
nger have to gather many Qi Gathering Stones to quicken his cultivation speed. Originally a Qi Gathering Stone was a low level stuff, then, wouldn’t he be able to get 10,000 gold coins for a single Spirit Stone?

  Then Ning Cheng realized that he was just thinking blindly, according to An Yi, a Spirit Stone was very precious, how could one be such a fool as to want to exchange a Spirit Stone for gold coins. Not to mention 10,000 gold coins, perhaps even if one was to offer tens of thousands of gold coins, one wouldn’t be willing to part with it.

  “So to say, a high grade Spirit Stone can be exchanged for a hundred Low Grade Spirit Stone? A high grade Spirit Stone…….” Ning Cheng began to think the value of a High Grade Spirit Stone, suddenly he felt his heart yearn for it. Even if he could not cultivate with it, to hold a High Grade Spirit Stone was something that he wanted.

  An Yi just shook her head and said, “Basically, a Medium Grade Spirit Stone can only be exchanged for 10 Low Grade Spirit Stone, and a high grade Spirit Stone can only be exchanged for a minimum of 10 Medium Grade Spirit Stone”

  Ning Cheng also nodded and said, “That is also very substantial.”

  Then, once again, Ning Cheng took out several jade bottles, many books, some other material along with some Spiritual Grasses from the Storage Bag. In addition, there was also a Flying Sword Type Artefact.

  This let Ning Cheng a bit disappointed as he could not find any Flying Type Artefact. Although he knew that with his ability, he would not be able to handle a Flying Type Artefact, but this kind of Flying Type Artefact was something he was greatly interested in.

  An Yi did not know why Ning Cheng’s heart was not satisfied, and continued to explain to Ning Cheng that, “The Storage Bag is already yours, but you need to refine it yourself and then place your own Restrictions on it. The Restrictions that you can place on the Storage Bag must be based on your own understanding about Restrictions, the higher you understand about Restrictions, the higher Restriction you can set on it.”
