Ning Cheng felt that this airship compared to other ordinary airships was somewhat different, but he could not exactly point out as to what was different.
After all the people came on board, the airship’s cabin door immediately closed up, Ning Cheng also very consciously looked for a corner and sat down. Of the participants going to the Law’s Way, besides the Essence Building Cultivators, there were also Profound Congealing Cultivators and even Profound Core Cultivators. If one did not want to be meddlesome, then finding a place alone to sit down was the best option.
Ning Cheng had just sat down, when the airship gently tremored, making everyone present inside to realize that the airship had now started.
The people inside were very eager to see the scenery outside, they wanted to have a look at the positioning of the Law’s Way, but this ship was completely sealed up, even one’s Spiritual Consciousness could not be used to sweep out.
Under such circumstances no one was able to do anything. As such the cultivators familiar with each other inside the airship began gathering together and started talking about the scenes from inside the Law’s Way. As for people with no acquaintances, like Ning Cheng, they all looked for a corner to sit down alone.
The entrance to the Law’s Way seemed to be very far, moreover the airship had already been flying for half a day, and still did not show any signs of stopping.
“Ladies and gentlemen, inside the Law’s Way there will be many close calls with death. Not to say that inside the Law’s Way, there will still be a lot of seniors. Moreover, this time, cultivators from the Yi Xing Ocean will also be joining the Law’s Way, which will increase the threats to us by many folds. If you want to survive inside the Law’s Way, then I think that everybody must unite together to form a team. I am Feng Continent’s Extreme Weapon Intent Sect’s Zuo Zhian, if anybody is willing to join me and form a team together with me then you can come to my side.”
A spirited voice interrupted Ning Cheng’s thoughts, Ning Cheng then saw a middle aged male cultivator who had spoken those words, he had a square face with hanging eyebrows, and was already at Profound Core 5th Level, it was a level far higher than his own.
“For Elder Brother Zuo to form a team, I will be the first to show support for it, I would like to join Elder Brother Zuo’s team.” Just as Zuo Zhian’s voice died down, someone immediately echoed out their willingness to join.
Just as the first person joined, the second one also showed his support, and soon Zuo Zhian’s team grew to a dozen strong.
With Zuo Zhian leading the team, some of the slightly weaker Profound Core Cultivators from that Academy also followed suit and joined, for a time, the entire cabin burst into ruckus as people started forming their own teams.
Although the Law’s Way allowed the Profound Core Cultivators to enter, but the fact was that there were not many Profound Core Cultivators, out of all of them they only occupied a maximum of a tenth of the total places.
This was not because these large Academies did not have many Profound Core Cultivators, rather all the Academies knew how precious the quota for the Law’s Way were. To get the chance to enter the Law’s Way, one required a certain degree of comprehensive ability along with talent and qualifications, without these, if they entered the Law’s Way, it would only be similar to letting the tortoise eat the barley only to spoil the grain.
Because of how precious these quotas were, the Academies naturally had to give these chances to the disciples with the best qualifications and comprehension ability. After these disciples entered the Law’s Way, then cultivating with a certain amount of resources, they could quickly advance to the Profound Core Realm, and could become a powerhouse inside the Law’s Way. This result, compared to entering the Law’s Way after advancing to the Profound Core Realm, was much more effective, and as such was much more valuable.
In just a short amount of time, the whole cabin that was filled with noise quickly settled down. With the exception of a very small number of people, most of them had already formed teams. Originally some of the 9 Star Academy disciples were not intending to participate in this, but they ended up internally forming half a team with the other Academy disciples.
“This Elder Brother, I am Younger Sister Hang Jiao Jiao, I see that you and the others have not yet teamed up with anyone, how about the few of us join together so as to create our own team?” A woman with a rich fragrance approached Ning Cheng at his place, there was a charming expression of dependence on her face, making anyone not to bear to refuse her.
This kind of fragrance was something one of a kind that would absolutely charm a man towards a woman. Moreover, this kind of faintly discernible flavour had extended towards then as soon as she arrived. Some of nearby Essence Building Cultivators even began to subconsciously approach to the side of this woman.
Ning Cheng had already wanted to kill this woman, but he had never dared to think that this woman would dare to come in front of him, he suddenly stood up and spoke in a cold but calm voice, “Fuck off.”
The entire cabin quieted down on hearing Ning Cheng’s words, and in just an instant turned completely silent. A beautiful looking Profound Congealing Female Cultivator had taken the initiative to find an Essence Building Cultivator to build a team. But this Essence Building man not only disagreed to that, but this Essence Building Cultivator even went to the extent to saying ‘Fuck off’ to her. This was simply too rude, it showed that he did not even pay any attention to this female cultivator.
Hang Jiao Jiao’s complexion also changed a little, she did not expect that who she had thought of as an ant would unexpectedly tell her to ‘Fuck off’. However, she immediately knew what she had to do, her eyes immediately became red, as she lowered her head and unexpectedly started sobbing.
“If you are not willing to form a team with others, you could have informed others in a single word. Why would you ask someone to ‘Fuck off’? Did your master teach you to be this rude to others?” What Ning Cheng did not think of was that the first to jump out would actually be the purple robed woman from the Wu Nian Academy named Ruxue.
This woman’s pipe really was to too wide, of all the people here who could come out to defend against such injustice, she was the one who should not have had to appear. One must know that initially she was almost split apart by the sword of Hang Jiao Jiao, ah, she really was blind, and simply did not know what was good and what was bad for her.
When Ning Cheng called off Hang Jiao Jiao no one had come forward to stand up for her, but when this purple robed woman from the Wu Nian Academy came out, it immediately caused some of the people to immediately come to the fore.
A man with the cultivation of Profound Core Realm gave a cold snort and spoke, “Just a trivial Essence Building Cultivator, and still dares to be this arrogant? I am Red Heaven Academy’s Que Penghai, I had initially wanted to add you to my team today, but it seems it would be better if you were not added.”
Even though he had barely escaped death many times in his two lives, Ning Cheng had become much more sophisticated and cool-headed to patiently bear a lot, but nevertheless he was at an age in which he was full of youthful vigour. As such after hearing such a thing, his blood was immediately aroused, with his murderous aura overflowing out, he once again spoke out in a cold manner, “Even if you were willing, this young master would be unwilling to join the likes of you, what can you possibly do?”
He had already killed four people from the Red Heaven Academy inside the Angry Axe Valley, as such on seeing such an aggressive act by the other party, it could be seen that this Academy was definitely not an Academy with a good character.
“Good, this father must teach you a lesson today, let’s see what you would do?” Que Penghai spoke as he took a step forward, and was just about to strike Ning Cheng.
“Such huge prestige and power. A Profound Core Cultivator wanting to strike down an Essence Building Cultivator, Bah!” A clear voice resounded throughout the cabin, making Que Penghai to immedia
tely stop his footsteps.
“So it turns out to be Blue Cloud Academy’s Junior Apprentice Sister Yan Ji. It is just that this person is very arrogant, he cannot even see with his eyes, I was just going to teach him a lesson.” Although Que Penghai called her as Junior Apprentice Sister, but his tone was very cautious and very polite.
Ning Cheng finally calmed himself down, he knew that he had acted on impulse a moment ago, if had to fight, then facing a Profound Core Cultivator, he would definitely suffer a huge loss. He would not even have the chance to fight back, before he was immediately tied up.

Blue Cloud Academy’s Yan Ji? Ning Cheng was a bit confused, he had never even heard about this Academy, not to even talk about a friendship with one of their disciples, so why in the world would this Yan Ji help him? Moreover, this Yan Ji was just like that purple robed woman, with a veil covering her face, looking at her clear and bright eyes, Ning Cheng could tell that this woman was definitely not worse than the purple robed woman. He could easily guess that her face was also as beautiful as that purple robed woman, because of which she had to cover her face with a veil.
“Senior Apprentice Sister Ji, this person spoke in such a rude way towards a woman, I just could not listen to it, this……” This purple robed woman obviously knew Yan Ji, hearing Yan Ji defend against such an injustice, she quickly tried to explain it from the side.
But this Yan Ji directly interrupted the words of that purple robed woman, and spoke in a light voice, “Junior Apprentice Sister Ruxue, I also was here a moment ago, and I also saw it very clearly, I do not need you to tell me or even explain it to me. Everyone’s eyes will only see what their hearts want to show, although all of us has seen the same thing, it’s just that we all see things in a different perspective.”
Once Nalan Ruxue’s words were interrupted by Yan Ji, although she felt slightly uncomfortable in her heart, but she did not speak up again. Que Penghai seeing that it was difficult to cause trouble for Ning Cheng at the moment, could only smile awkwardly, before returning to his team.
“Haha, Junior Apprentice Sister Ruxue and Junior Apprentice Sister Yan Ji are known as the Le Continent’s ‘Twin Lotus Flowers On One Stock’, and are excellent boudoir friends, there is no need for them to fight over such a disagreeable person.” A loud laughing voice broke the pregnant silence, but it made Nalan Ruxue even more embarrassed. It was true that she and Yan Ji were outstandingly beautiful and simply unparalleled in appearance, and were definitely known as ‘Twin Lotus Flowers On One Stock’, but Yan Ji and her behavioural standards and conducts were entirely different, in fact it could even be said to be polar opposites. Although these two people have some understandings of each other, but they had never become friends, let alone boudoir friends.
Ning Cheng noted that the person who had spoken with the laughing voice was a young and handsome man, moreover he was not only handsome, he even had the cultivation of Profound Core 8th Level. It can even be said that he was one of the few people with the highest cultivation in this place. However, as to the words spoken by this person, Ning Cheng had already seen through it. Although this person had spoken clearly in a good humoured voice, but in fact he was actually sowing dissension. By deliberately speaking in such a manner, he was trying to wedge a gap between Yan Ji and the purple robed woman.
Originally these two people were just having some different opinions about something, but because of this person’s words, perhaps it would bring out even more unpleasantness in the hearts of these two people. Even if these two people were aware that this man was intentionally inciting them, it would still tear a gap in the hearts of both parties.
But Yan Ji and that purple robed woman simply did not pay any heed to the words spoken by this handsome male cultivator, the purple robed woman simply kept silent, but Yan Ji headed to the place where Ning Cheng was at.
“Speaking to Senior Apprentice Brother. I am Le Continent’s Blue Cloud 8 Star Academy’s Yan Ji.” Yan Ji arrived in front of Ning Cheng, and in a very polite manner cupped her fists and gave a polite and respectful greeting.
At this point of time, all the cultivators present there were looking at Yan Ji with confusion and wonder in their eyes, Yan Ji and Nalan Ruxue were called the ‘Twin Lotus Flowers On One Stock’, and as such their personality and mannerisms should have been extremely arrogant. For such an arrogant person, how could they possibly take the initiative to even politely greet Ning Cheng who was in all respects a plain looking cultivator?
Ning Cheng at present had the appearance of a 30-year-old thin uncle, even his face had the colour of fatigue, just a single look could tell that he was definitely not from some big Academy.
“Your cultivation is higher than me, it should be me who should be calling you Senior Apprentice Sister.” Ning Cheng hastily replied. He could not understand why Yan Ji would take the initiative to help him, moreover even greet him in such a polite manner.
Yan Ji showed a faint smile, “In my opinion, cultivation is only something temporary, maybe one day you might have ascended to the Crucible Transformation Realm, while I would still be lingering in the Profound Congealing Realm. Using your cultivation to pressure others, it would only lead to one day being pressured by others’ cultivation. To me, you are older than I am, as such you are my Senior Apprentice Brother.”
Listening to the way Yan Ji spoke, Ning Cheng had a very favourable impression about Yan Ji. Yan Ji speaking in such a manner was similar to making Que Penghai to run idiotically on a bank, the words spoken by Que Penghai a moment ago were now like birds chirping, something not even worth paying any attention to. As such Ning Cheng was also no longer feeling unwell in his heart like the earlier time.
Que Penghai’s face turned ugly, but he could not directly refute it.
“I haven’t yet asked Senior Apprentice Brother’s name. Where do you come from?” Yan Ji saw that Ning Cheng had not taken the initiative to introduce himself, and asked a question.
Ning Cheng was also helpless, and spoke without alternative, “I am called Cheng Xiaoning, and am merely a rogue cultivator, a few years ago I was scouted out by a General from the cultivator army, and was assimilated into the army. This time, I was picked up to fill in the quota for the Law’s Way, the General appreciated my comprehending ability, and as such let me participate in the Law’s Way.”
Ning Cheng’s words immediately caused a person nearby to chuckle, a person more than 30 years old, but still only at the cultivation level of Essence Building Realm, and yet still spoke that he had a good comprehension ability.
Yan Ji did not mind it and spoke, “Because this time the Yi Xing Ocean’s cultivators are also allowed into the Law’s Way, the Law’s Way at this moment is certainly much more dangerous. Senior Apprentice Brother Cheng, if you don’t mind, you can join our team.”
With Que Penghai trying to make trouble, Ning Cheng had already considered that after he entered the Law’s Way, he would have to at first escape from the fate of being hunted down and killed. Although he did not fear Hang Jiaojiao, but that Que Penghai was a Profound Core Cultivator. If he had to face a Profound Core Cultivator at this moment, he knew that he was absolutely not a match against him.
“Many thanks Junior Apprentice Sister Ji, I am definitely willing to join your team.” Ning Cheng quickly thanked her, considering his present cultivation, for Yan Ji to invite him to join her team was obviously to help him. As to Yan Ji and Hang Jiaojiao’s motives, they were certainly different, but as to why Yan Ji would try and help him, he was still not clear about it at the moment.
The purple robed woman hearing that Yan Ji not only stopped her from teaching Ning Cheng a lesson, but also directly invited Ning Cheng to join her team, caused he
r complexion to immediately turn ugly. But since at this time she was wearing a veil, as such the others could not see it.
When Yan Ji heard Ning Cheng agree, she immediately warmed up in her heart and directly started introducing Ning Cheng to her teammates, “My team is formed jointly by me and Blue Cloud Academy’s Senior Apprentice Brother Xi Ang, Senior Apprentice Brother Xi Ang has the cultivation of Profound Core 3rd Level, and has the highest cultivation in our group. Come with me, I will introduce you to the rest of the people……”
After Yan Ji completed their respective introductions, Ning Cheng found that the worst cultivation among them was of Wu Zemao with the cultivation of Essence Building 9th Level. The one with the highest cultivation was Xi Ang, at Profound Core 3rd Level. Of the remaining few people Shi Liqun was at Profound Congealing 6th Level, Yan Xin was at Profound Congealing 9th Level, and Hua Hong was at Profound Congealing 4th Level. Furthermore, there were two more female cultivators, Huo Miaojing who was at Profound Congealing 7th Level, and Ji Tingting who was at Profound Congealing 1st Level, the entire team added up, including Ning Cheng, was a total of nine people.
Besides Yan Ji, only the other Essence Building 9th Level cultivator, Wu Zemao politely greeted Ning Cheng. Everyone else just nodded.
Ning Cheng knew why these people had simply nodded to him, it was just to give face to Yan Ji, otherwise these people would not even pay any attention to an Essence Building 4th Level cultivator.
When Hang Jiaojiao saw Yan Ji take in Ning Cheng, she knew that although she was cursed at and told to ‘Fuck Off’, at the moment could only accept her fate. But even so she still took advantage of this opportunity to thank Que Penghai, and then joined Que Penghai’s team.
Ning Cheng looked at this woman and sneered in his heart, to let this woman to join their small team, he only hoped that this Que Penghai was finally left with at least a few broken bones which he could adhere to.
