“The last time when Senior Kang asked if I had any fortuitous encounter, I did not say anything, because my Grandfather said that I could not tell this to anyone. Big Brother Ning you rescued my life, I think that there is nothing to hide from you. The reason why my memory is a lot better than my elder brother, my Grandfather once said, that it was because of the Heart of Time’s influence, but my Grandfather actually also did not know anything about this Heart of Time……”
Although Ning Cheng was very sceptical about the relation of the Heart of Time and Yue Ying’s formidable comprehension ability, but he also did not know what this Heart of Time was. After listening to Yue Ying’s words, “What your Grandfather said was right, from here on out do not tell this matter to others.”
Yue Ying had some disagreements in her heart, can’t tell this to other people, are you not other people? Did I not just tell you this because you asked about it?
Ning Cheng’s injuries quickly healed up, this Yue Ying was after all a young girl, and Ning Cheng was more or less just a few years older than her, so after the two people exchanged a few more words, she had already thrown away the restraints that she had put on herself.
“Big Brother Ning, didn’t you say that you wanted to give these pearl hair clips to your younger sister?” As the two people became more familiar with each other, Yue Ying more or less did not regard Ning Cheng as an outsider, and even took out the pearl hair clips as she gave then to Ning Cheng.
Ning Cheng took the pearl hair clips from Yue Ying’s hands, and looked at it for a long time, “I have already given her such a pearl hair clip before, because I could not see my younger sister, therefore when I initially saw a similar pearl hair clip that I had given to my younger sister, I immediately wanted to buy it back”
“Big Brother Ning, why did you only gave her a single one? Who did you give the other too? Is your Younger Sister Ruo Lan or Mu Wan?” Yue Ying, who did not speak with him for a long time, now that she came to know a bit about Ning Cheng, she simply shot out endless questions.
Ning Cheng frowned, he guessed that he had called out his younger sister’s name when he was in coma a few moments ago.
Seeing Ning Cheng frown, Yue Ying quickly said, “Big Brother Ning, please do not misunderstand, I only wanted to ask because you kept repeating these names in your sleep. Is that Sister Luo Fei, the one that I saw in the Mo Ze Grand Plaza, the sister you keep mentioning?”
Ning Cheng sighed, “My sister is called Ning Ruo Lan, she is just like you, and is a very lovely girl. Of the pair of pearl hair clips, I gave one of them to Mu Wan, however for some reason she ended up losing it.”
Speaking till here, he had a self-deprecating smile on his face, that pearl hair clip was not actually lost by Tian Mu Wan. However, to Ning Cheng, he would have rather lost it to Tian Mu Wan rather than letting others throw it away.
Seeing the somewhat self-ridiculing expression on Ning Cheng’s face, Yue Ying immediately understood what might had happened, and immediately spoke up, “Big Brother Ning, I think that Sister Luo Fei is a very nice person….”
She also finally understood why Ning Cheng was so good to her, it was because he was originally thinking of his own younger sister. After saying that, she felt that her words were somewhat monotonous, as she hurriedly put the pair of pearl hair clips into Ning Cheng’s hands and said, “Big Brother Ning, I think that you should give these pearl hair clips to Sister Luo Fei.”
Yue Ying did not know why that person called Mu Wan would throw away Big Brother Ning’s pearl hair clips, but she had seen Luo Fei, she could clearly see that she really was very much worried about Ning Cheng, she would definitely not discard Ning Cheng’s pearl hair clips.
Ning Cheng smiled, “The things of the past are in the past, it’s just something I think of occasionally. As for this pair of pearl hair clips, from your words I can see that you already like it very much, it would be better if you keep it for yourself. Well this matter was caused by me, since I did not gift the full pair of the pearl hair clips to my little sister at that time.”
Yue Ying could not bear to part with the pair of pearl hair clips in his hands, after hesitated for a bit, she finally took one back and said, “Big Brother Ning, since you are insisting I will keep one, I will certainly not throw it away, and I am also certain that Sister Luo Fei would also not lose it.”
Ning Cheng looked at his hand which, at the moment, contained an extremely ordinary pearl hair clip, as he nodded and said, “Well, so be it.”
Yue Ying saw Ning Cheng finally accept one of the pearl hair clips, immediately became happy in her heart, finally putting away other pearl hair clip away, she asked, “Big Brother Ning, I think that you are very good from the bottom of my heart, then why did Lu Xue and Yong Gu Yun dislike you so much?”
“You will come to understand this later. Right, later if you don’t want to cultivate with your original Cultivation Method, then have a look in your Storage Ring to look for a more suitable Cultivation Method, if you can find one, then you can change your Cultivation Method to cultivate more efficiently.” Ning Cheng did not go through with the explanation of the matters of why Yong Gu Yun disliked him, this kind of thing was simply too boring to explain. As for how Yong Gu Yun looked at him, he did not care about that at all.
Yue Ying immediately thought of the words that Ning Cheng had spoken to her earlier, to judge a matter to be right or wrong, one had to rely on their own understanding rather than basing it off the half-understanding of others. Regarding the matter of the Cultivation Method, she had already seen the contents of the Storage Ring, inside the ring she had found a non-attributed Cultivation Method Jade Piece, although she did not know the Grade of this Cultivation Method, but she planned to cultivate using that non-attributed Cultivation Method.
Seeing Ning Cheng once again close his eyes to heal himself, Yue Ying hurriedly left the room. Now that Ning Cheng came back, she was no longer afraid, and could start her cultivation with ease.
Ning Cheng was already immersed in his consciousness to focus on the more than 600 changes from that picture on the leather like parchment that he initially remembered. He wanted to very much know why his understanding of the changes he observed were different from the one’s Yue Ying observed.
When Ning Cheng completely immersed himself in the changes of the pictures, he unexpectedly saw more different pictures once again. He had absolutely not seen those pictures before. Before he only saw a bit more than 600 changes in the picture, but now they were more than double as they still continued to increase.
Ning Cheng’s cultivation was limited, however because he had the Mysterious Yellow Bead in his Zifu, it simply wasn’t a problem anymore. Even after seeing so many changes, he did not become muddleheaded even once.
Maybe it was because of the few tips from Yue Ying, but Ning Cheng was finally now able to see the source of the Cultivation Method in the original picture. These images gradually blended together, as he for the first time after a long time entered the Mysterious Yellow Bead, he gradually became aware that the Formless and the Creation aspects of the Mysterious Yellow Bead were harmonising with each other, letting Ning Cheng unconsciously enter into a Meditative Cultivation State.
A moment later Ning Cheng opened his eyes and lifted his hands, as an innumerable High Grade Spirit Stones flew out from his Storage Bag and neatly piled up in front of him, as he once again started to cultivate.
He wanted to clearly understand what the chant “Formless Creation” meant, as this could even be treated as cultivating in a Cultivation Method that had no Cultivation Method to Cultivate. The ‘Formless’ did not represent any Cultivation Method, but as long as one started to cultivate, at that moment his consciousness would automatically produce the most correct way to circulate his True Essence.
It was not so much as a Cultivation Method, rather it was better to say that it was Cultivation Method that changed at every moment. This Cultivation Method changed with time, place and the deg
ree of purity of one’s Spiritual Qi. This kind of Cultivation Method was not something that could be inherited, and he was the only person in the entire world who could use it to cultivate.
Combining the information that he gleaned from the leather like parchment and the information that he obtained from the Mysterious Yellow Bead’s Origin at the same place made Ning Cheng to vaguely grasp at the so called Heaven and Earth Cultivation Methods. As he had the good fortune to receive one of the five heaven defying treasures that was the Mysterious Yellow Bead, he learned that in this chaotic universe there were five kinds of Cultivation Methods that were not accepted by the Heavens and the Earth.
And as he felt his Origin Cultivation Method form in his mind, he found that this Cultivation Method was not set in stone like the others, one could change it anytime and anywhere, as it belonged to the Chaotic Origin Cultivation Methods, moreover it could only be acquired by a single person and that too if they had tremendous luck. If the Origin one obtained was more complete, the Cultivation Method generated would be even more powerful. This Cultivation Method as such was not something that was permitted by the heavens, if one did not have a great wisdom and great perseverance, then if they did not use it to cultivate their mortal bodies, then they were sure to be likely to face a terrifying tribulation lightning that would simply turn them into ash.
As for the other four types of the Cultivation Methods that were not of the Heavens or the Earth, he only came to know that they existed, but he also knew that he actually would not be able to understand anything about it.

After changing the Cultivation Method in which she was cultivating, Yue Ying just used a few days to break through to the Qi Gathering 7th Level. She was really overjoyed, after stopping to cultivate, she began thinking that since it has already been a few days, but that Ning Cheng still did seem to have come out. Yue Ying hurriedly arrived at his room, when she arrived in the room she saw that the Spiritual Qi had already taken the form of a fog like substance, which made her immediately stunned.
At this time Ning Cheng was already out of bed, and was sitting in the middle of the room cultivating, while the inside of the room was completely filled with Spirit Stones. She, at the moment, could only see that the Spiritual Qi had completely turned into a whirlpool like shape around Ning Cheng, as it was being absorbed by him continuously.
Yue Ying had seen others cultivate, even she cultivated by absorbing the Spiritual Qi by herself, but she had never seen such a fearful and fast scene of Spiritual Qi absorption. She knew that at this time, Ning Cheng was seriously cultivating, and hence should not disturb him. She hastily sat down against the door and began cultivating. Here the Spiritual Qi was extremely rich, compared the Spiritual Qi in Spirit Stones that she was using to cultivate before, she could definitely tell that it was many times better.
Ning Cheng’s injuries had already vanished and could no longer be seen anymore, he could only feel the rich Spiritual Qi around him that he was continuously absorbing, and then was again being transformed into True Essence. At this time Ning Cheng finally became aware of the terrifying amount of Spiritual Qi around him, but he still wanted to know just how much of this Spiritual Qi could he absorb.
He never had been able to be this carefree when he cultivated, this feeling was simply indescribable. This rich Spiritual Qi combined with the Mysterious Yellow Origin Qi, made Ning Cheng’s cultivation to rise up continuously.
Previously when he used Spirit Stones to cultivate, when compared to his cultivation speed now, it basically couldn’t be placed on an equal footing. Yue Ying was also standing at the door watching him, this was something that Ning Cheng was very clear about, but for now he did not pay attention to anything related to Yue Ying.
In just one month, Ning Cheng already advanced to True Condensation 5th Level, in three months Ning Cheng advanced to True Condensation 6th Level. Half a year later, Ning Cheng was already at the Peak of True Condensation 7th Level. But at this time, six months later, Ning Cheng’s stash of Spirit Stones were almost exhausted.
Under the influence of the rich Spiritual Mist around Ning Cheng, Yue Ying’s speed of cultivation was also much faster than when she used the High Grade Spirit Stones. Besides among this heavy Spiritual Mist, there was also a slight trace of the Mysterious Yellow Qi, which allowed Yue Ying to travel a thousand Li a day, unlike the slow progress of Ning Cheng.
With its help Yue Ying was finally able to advance to Qi Gathering 8th Level before getting up to eat for a bit as she left Ning Cheng to cultivate. When she started to cultivate after eating, she finally advanced in rank to Qi Gathering 9th Level, but even at this time Ning Cheng was still deeply immersed in his cultivation. The only difference was, Ning Cheng would occasionally unconsciously eat a few pieces of dried ration every now and then.
Fortunately, she knew that Ning Cheng was still in the middle of cultivation. Otherwise she might have gone crazy. The only thing that she could do, was to continue to eat something, and they once again continue to cultivate.
This day Yue Ying could hear all the Meridians in her body breaking out with a crackling like sound, as her Qi also began transforming into the more powerful True Essence. Yue Ying finally understood that she had finally started to advance to the True Condensation Realm.
Yue Ying did not have the True Condensation Pill, so she did not know if this kind advancement was the real True Condensation Realm was real or not as she had not taken the True Condensation Pill. But when she felt that she was quickly finishing advancing to the True Condensation Realm, she quickly set that matter aside in her heart, and put all her mind to transforming her Qi into True Essence.
In the meantime, Ning Cheng finally broke through to the True Condensation 8th Level. As for Yue Ying, with the help of the Spiritual Mist and the trace amounts of Mysterious Yellow Qi, she finally broke through the shackles and officially advanced to the True Condensation 1st Level, as True Essence surged through her body. She could not help but exclaim out in a clear and crisp sound.
Ning Cheng opened his eyes. As he stood up he felt that compared to before, his True Essence was several times stronger, resulting in him becoming pleasantly surprised in both his mind and heart while simultaneously also feeling a bit pained.
The main reason why he was surprised was that although he had advanced to the True Condensation 8th Level, his strength was still extremely powerful. The reason why he felt pained was that he had obtained so many Spirit Stones, but almost all of it were used up by him. But using even these many Spirit Stones, he was only able to advance to just True Condensation 8th Level. With such a cultivation speed, just how many Spirit Stones would he require to advance to the Profound Core Realm?
“Oh, Big Brother Ning, I’m sorry, I could not help myself and restrain my emotions, and ended up affecting your state of cultivation.” Yue Ying saw Ning Cheng finally woke up, hurriedly spoke in a flustered tone.
But at the moment Ning Cheng’s mood was really good, he just wanted to play a joke on her, but then with an astonished expression on his face he asked, “Yue Ying, you unexpectedly reached the True Condensation Ream? Where did you get the True Condensation Pill from?”
Yue Ying was at a loss, “I did not have a True Condensation Pill, ah, after I advanced to the Qi Gathering 9th Level, I simply naturally broke through the Qi Gathering Realm and into the True Condensation Realm. Um, now that I think of it, I should have benefitted from Big Brother Ning. When I was cultivating in this room, not only was my speed faster, but cultivating in this Spiritual Mist was also much better than cultivating with Spirit Stones.”
Ning Cheng sighed darkly in his heart as he became a bit depressed, this was a true genius, with just a bit of Spiritual Mist, she could just casually advance to the True Condensation Realm, mor
eover she did not even need a True Condensation Pill. Thinking back to the time when he wanted to advance to the True Condensation Realm. The two people, him and Tai Shu Shi, just to obtain a True Condensation Pill, had to go through various hardships and struggles just to obtain it. This person simply cannot be compared to them.
“How long was I holed up?” Ning Cheng suddenly remembered this matter, if it was already past three months, then it was tantamount to success. Later he would try and think of a way to get out of the Angry Axe Valley and return to the Hua Continent.
“I guess that it been about 7 or 8 months.” Although Yue Ying was also holed up, she was not like Ning Cheng, as she would, from time to time, wake up and take a look at Ning Cheng.
“It indeed is as expected.” Ning Cheng spoke as if talking to himself.
Speaking till that point Ning Cheng asked, “Yue Ying, what plans do you have from now?”
“I do not know where I should go, if that Senior Kang is still looking for me, then even if I return to Hua Continent, I would not be able to escape from his hands, but I am really worried about my brother.” Yue Ying said with a vacant expression, if this Senior Kang really was looking for her, then she truly had no place to go to.
But Ning Cheng spoke with affirmation, “The old man surnamed Kang will definitely not go to the Hua Continent, after arriving here for three months, the two of us have not come out of the Angry Axe Valley, so that man surnamed Kang will definitely think that we are in the Angry Axe Valley. So as long as we are in the Angry Axe Valley, and then secretly leave the Jia Continent, as such there would not be a possibility of such a thing to happen immediately.”
“Big Brother Ning, do you want to go back to the Hua Continent?” Yue Ying immediately asked.
