The Gate Of Good Fortune c1-905

  Moreover, he was only an unarmed Life Essence, so he can’t even put up a fight against these treasures. Going against them in such a situation would be akin to not knowing the word ‘Death.’ Annihilation was something already etched in stone, as such; Jue Han did not dare to retaliate. Instead, he put everything he had to withdraw.

  Since you tried to possess me without my permission, then why withdraw.

  Ning Cheng was also unable to tolerate this kind of invasion. Countless lightning arcs erupted from the Blue Thunder City, the next moment these lightning arcs transformed into a lightning cage that trapped Jue Han’s Life Essence before a scorching flames rolled over from the Star River.

  “Aah…..” A scream echoed throughout Ning Cheng’s Sea of Consciousness. At this moment, Jue Han’s Life Essence could not even put up a shred of resistance, before the Thunder City and the Star River Seed jointly finished it off. Ning Cheng also did not need to send out his own Life Essence.

  My god, luckily I have the Star River Seed and the Thunder City. Otherwise, that shameless fellow might have already succeeded in taking over me.

  The one that caused the most joy to Ning Cheng was the attack from the Thunder City. The Thunder City was the first to attack, although it could not come outside, within the Sea of Consciousness, the Thunder City possessed enough power to annihilate the Life Essence of Jue Han. This meant that he would definitely be able to bring out the Thunder City and tune it to attack in the future. If one day, he could mobilize the Thunder City to attack, then his strength would undoubtedly soar by a considerable margin.

  Ning Cheng went forward and unceremoniously collected Jue Han’s ring. He was even too lazy to take care of Jue Han’s corpse as he directly left the area.

  ……

  Arriving at a spacious place, Ning Cheng, for the first time, brought out the completely black colored Rank 5 Battle Disc. Initially, Ning Cheng did not care much about this Black Battle Disc, but now that he heard that he could use this Black Battle Disc to fly into those troublesome Poison Mist Thistles, it had indeed given him a huge surprise.

  Unfortunately, Jue Han had died too soon, as such he was unable to inquire about the specific circumstances inside the Poison Mist Thistles.

  Ning Cheng had just walked up to the Black Battle Disc, but before he could even reach out and touch the metal of the Black Battle Disc, he saw a door automatically opening up over the surface of the Battle Disc.

  “This Battle Disc requests master to give it a name.” After the front door of the Battle Disc opened, an incomparably clear and crisp sound emerged.

  Ning Cheng was secretly shocked. He knew that this was because he had already imprinted his Spiritual Sense into that rune patterned jade card, which was equivalent to taking the ownership of the Battle Disc. However, Ning Cheng had never thought that this Battle Disc would possess its own intelligence. This was far superior to the many fighter jets that he had read and seen about on Earth.

  “Let it be called Sifting Orchid.” Ning Cheng casually spoke. He had obtained this Battle Disc in the Sifting Orchid Star, so might as well name this Battle Disc as Sifting Orchid.

  “Many thanks, Master. Sifting Orchid welcomes Master to enter.” The Black Battle Disc issued an intelligent sounding voice once again, causing Ning Cheng to become even more delighted with this Battle Disc. He had no idea that a technological product that he had never seen would give him such a huge surprise.

  Ning Cheng entered into the Battle Disc and discovered that the Battle Disc’s interior had a very exquisite yet straightforward design. Moreover one could even see the outside scenery as clear as day. This Battle Disc did not have any kind of a control room. As such, the internal space within the Battle Disc was more appropriately a recreational area. It was actually a comfortable looking seating area with a few beds, a desk…

  “Requesting Master to provide instructions…..”

  “Requesting Master to choose a source of energy…..”

  ……

  Ning Cheng was more than just pleasantly surprised at all of this; just this Rank 5 Battle Disc was already this intelligent, so how extraordinary would it be if was replaced by a Rank 6 or Rank 7 one?

  Ning Cheng took out the jade strip given to him by Ban Miaolei that contained the rough layouts of the land and wondered whether the Battle Disc would be able to read it.

  “Sifting Orchid, can you read jade strips?” Ning Cheng asked while he waved the jade strip in his hand.

  “Requesting Master to place the jade strip in the reading slot…..” As the Battle Disc’s intelligent voice sounded out, it allowed Ning Cheng to find the reading slot, but at the same time also showed him the Spirit Stone slot.

  The Battle Disc was able to read the jade strip, and could even retrieve Spirit Stones from Spacial Rings without any restrictions. As Ning Cheng realized this, he knew that this thing was entirely the product of combining a technological civilization with a true cultivator civilization.

  Evidently, his previous thought that a technological civilization and a true cultivator civilization cannot coexist was utterly wrong. It also proved that the world outside was much more splendid and complicated than what he had initially thought off. In case one did not intend to fight directly, they could also direct the Spirit Stone Cannon aboard the Battle Disc to bombard your enemies, causing the unmotivated army to be unable to resist it.

  Compared to manually controlled Spirit Stone Cannons, weren’t these intelligent Spirit Stone Cannons a thousand times better? This Rank 5 Battle Disc was not trash, but a real treasure aah; it was even more potent than a low-grade True Artefact.

  Ning Cheng was still in the midst of his thoughts, when the Sifting Orchid once again issued a directive, “Requesting Master to provide a target location….”

  “Go to the Poison Mist Thistles.” Ning Cheng took out a ring filled with Spirit Stones, a Ring without any restrictions. He placed it into the energy slot and spoke with a high-spirited voice. He had initially planned to see if he could control the Mysterious Yellow Bead to help him enter the Poison Mist Thistles, but he had not thought that the Battle Disc would be so intelligent.

  When the Battle Disc started flying, Ning Cheng could not even feel its movements. By the time Ning Cheng swept out with his Spiritual Consciousness, the Battle Disc had already shot towards the location of the Poison Mist Thistles. At this moment, Ning Cheng who was comfortably sitting on a chair had a giant crystal screen in front of him. The crystal screen displayed many things including the outside view, the flying saucer’s speed, direction, altitude, and other environment-related parameters.

  “Wow!” Ning Cheng muttered to himself. The Sifting Orchid could even go faster, as long as he chose to give the command.

  However, Ning Cheng did not choose to give that order, the present speed was definitely the most balanced velocity that the Battle Disc can synthesize.

  The crystal screen even showed the severity of any tornadoes that approached the flight path of the flying saucer. However, not waiting for Ning Cheng to study these things clearly, the flying saucer had already arrived at the edge of the Poison Mist Thistles.

  “Sifting Orchid discovered an unidentified misty fog. However, this misty fog has no effect on the Battle Disc.” The Battle Disc gave out a report in its intelligent voice while storming into the poison mist.

  It really is not affected,

  Ning Cheng thought, causing him to feel overjoyed before he immediately spoke up, “Go to the center of the poison mist. Seek out the location that has this kind of Spiritual Grass.”

  Then Ning Cheng then placed a jade strip into the reading slot containing the description of the Heavenly Cusp Flower.

  The Rank 5 Battle Disc’s body quickly lit up with a bright light; this luminescence was just like daylight shown onto the thistles below. As Ning Cheng looked at the dense and innumerable thistles below him, he couldn’t help but feel a creepy sensation. Luckily, he did not have to enter these thistles by himself. Who w
ould know what dangers lurked within these thistles?

  Merely after two hours, the Battle Disc stopped and sent out a response that they had arrived. Ning Cheng then looked outside of the Battle Disc and found it suspended over a lake, while at the same time, observed countless Spiritual Grasses growing around it.

  Ning Cheng could even make out that there were about seven strains of Heavenly Cusp Flowers. Besides these Heavenly Cusp Flowers, there was also a very strange looking Spiritual Grass. It was a plant with only a single Spirit Fruit, but without any leaves, nor did it possess any flower petals.

  This was definitely the Petalless Flower; Ning Cheng identified it as he rapidly scanned the surroundings with his Spiritual Consciousness. There were seven strains of the Heavenly Cusp Flower and five strains of this Petalless Flower, as for the rest of the Spiritual Grasses growing there, Ning Cheng knew all of them.

  The surroundings of this lake did not contain even a hint of the poison, nor was he able to perceive any kind of dangerous Monstrous Beasts.

  “It really is untouched.” Ning Cheng restrained his happy feelings in the innermost parts of his heart, as he descended from the Battle Disc. This place remained untouched through countless years; as such, he found it weird that no one knew the worth of these Spiritual Grasses inside.

  “There is a strong presence in the lake that is going to awaken soon. Must leave immediately…..” The Sifting Orchid suspended over the lake suddenly gave out an anxious-sounding warning.

  Regarding the Rank 5 Battle Disc, Ning Cheng had already started to believe in it. As such, when he heard the Battle Disc sounding out a warning, Ning Cheng quickly dug out a Heavenly Cusp Flower and grabbed two of the surrounding Spiritual Grasses before jumping onto the Battle Disc.

  “Bang….” The Battle Disc’s door had just closed when a massive water column erupted from the lake. Even though Ning Cheng was within the Battle Disc, he still felt his chest stiffen.

  The Rank 5 Battle Disc was just like a straw in the wind as it tumbled along the fierce winds.

  “The Battle Disc took damage, initiating self-repair procedures.” Sifting Orchid’s voice once again sounded out.

  Ning Cheng, at this moment, saw a colossal, terrifying Monstrous Beast burst out from the lake, while it simultaneously sending out a palm to capture the Battle Disc. He immediately realized that this existence was definitely equivalent to a Crucible Transformation Cultivator. If he ended up struck by that palm, then he would have no means to escape.

  “First rush out, and then initiate the self-repair procedures.” Ning Cheng was utterly shocked and quickly gave out the instructions. Although the Battle Disc was powerful, in the end, it was still a product of technological civilization, as such, it was unable to provide any kind of resistance in the face of this type of formidable Monstrous Beast.

  Fortunately, this Battle Disc had enough intelligence, while it automatically went into self-repair mode; it was able to rush into the Poison Mist Thistles. The Monstrous Beast from the lake, in the end, was a step slower than it was; as such, although the Monstrous Beast was mighty, it still did not dare to enter the Poison Mist Thistles.

  Ning Cheng sucked in a mouthful of cold air, while he really felt a bit pitiful in his heart. If he could have taken away all the Spiritual Grasses from the lake, then it would have been just a matter of time for him to become a Tier 8 Pill Grandmaster.

  (Author’s Note: Here is today’s update; the Sixth Volume is about to end, after the Sixth Volume, Ning Cheng will be going back to Earth. I am also looking forward to the Earth Arc, planned a long time ago, and will not let you down. With today’s update here, have a good night my friends!)

  The Battle Disc was flying in a rickety manner, at several times Ning Cheng even thought that the Battle Disc would fall into the thistle forest below. Fortunately, although the Battle Disc was staggering, it did not fall down. Though the Battle Disc did not fall down, there was a significant degradation in its speed, and it was only after a good long while that the Battle Disc was barely able to stabilize itself.

  Ning Cheng also felt slightly relieved; he knew that it must have been the work of the Sifting Orchid’s intelligence. Only at this moment, did he finally get the chance to take out and look at the Spiritual Grasses that he had collected. Ning Cheng had grabbed whatever he could with both his hands as such his harvest only contained two Heavenly Cusp Flowers, a Petalless Flower as well as two strands of Seven-Coloured Grass.

  Although the Seven-Coloured Grass was a Rank 7 Spiritual Grass, its value was just average to Ning Cheng. As for the functions of the Petalless Flower, Ning Cheng only had an inkling of feeling that it could help in countering the poisonous fog in this place. If there was any other role to it then Ning Cheng was not clear about it, as such he could only choose to preserve it inside a jade box.

  Ning Cheng was cautious with the methods he used for preserving these Spiritual Grasses. A few moments ago, that Monstrous Beast in the Poison Mist Lake had almost killed him. It was fortunate that he had the Rank 5 Battle Disc, which had allowed him to escape.

  This Rank 5 Battle Disc not only helped Ning Cheng in acquiring these Spiritual Grasses but at the same time had also saved Ning Cheng’s life, causing the status of the Rank 5 Battle Disc to rise up significantly in Ning Cheng’s heart. However, what made Ning Cheng a bit distressed was that the Rank 5 Battle Disc ended up with a massive dent because of the attack from that unknown Monstrous Beast. He did not know if the Sifting Orchid’s intelligence would be able to repair it or not.

  A few days later, Ning Cheng once again returned to his residence but chose not to continue with his Body-Forging. The Coiling Reef Mountain’s Great Meet mentioned by Chao Hei was only a few months away from now, as such, he intended to cultivate for these few months before visiting that place.

  If he were not worried that Shi Qionghua would come back, Ning Cheng would have already left the Sifting Orchid Star. He wasn’t able to break the Transmission Jade Talisman that he had obtained from the bottom of the Blood River previously, but he should be able to do it now, right? He was afraid that once Shi Qionghua came back, she would not have any place to live. Moreover, once the Sifting Orchid Star really blew up, then all would be lost anyway.

  The few months had passed by quickly, while Ning Cheng’s cultivation had also broken through to the Soul Sculpting 2

  nd

  Level from the peak of the Soul Sculpting Realm’s First Level.

  At this time, the communications pearl that he received from Chao Hei lit up. Chao Hei conveyed Ning Cheng the message that the Sifting Orchid Star’s Cultivator Meet was about to start in a few days at the Coiling Reef Mountains.

  ……

  Ning Cheng once again sat in the Battle Disc and directly chose to fly towards the Coiling Reef Mountains, especially since using a standard Magical Weapon to fly around in the Sifting Orchid Star was something dangerous. It was mainly because the space around the Sifting Orchid Star was volatile, as such; it was possible to fall into a Spacial Turbulence at any time and anywhere. It was also possible that one could even meet advance level flight type Monstrous Beast if one were genuinely unlucky.

  However, the Battle Disc had the capability of detecting and avoiding all of these things in advance, this was the advantage brought about by its intelligence. In this respect, the Battle Disc was much more practical compared to even a True Artefact grade flight type Magical Weapon. The only thing that Ning Cheng felt a bit regrettable was that the defensive capabilities of the Battle Disc were slightly worse.

  Although that advanced level Monstrous Beast had not directly attacked it, it still caused a massive dent in it. If an advance level Monstrous Beast had
actually attacked it head on, then without any suspense, it would end up with the complete destruction of the Battle Disc.

  Although not fast, on the Sifting Orchid Star the speed of the Rank 5 Battle Disc, compared to Ning Cheng traversing the ground by himself, was a lot faster. Simultaneously, it was less laborious with a lot more safely.

  “Discovered a hurricane, please state whether to change direction or not to evade the hurricane…..” Ning Cheng had already traveled unharmed inside the Battle Disc for over two days, but on the third day, the intelligent voice of Sifting Orchid suddenly sounded out.

  Ning Cheng was a bit startled, before he quickly spoke up, “Immediately move to avoid the hurricane……”

  Although it was intelligent, however, there were still limits to its intelligence, unable to replace an actual human brain. Otherwise, it would not have asked such a stupid question.

  As far as the hurricanes of the Sifting Orchid Star were concerned, Ning Cheng had heard Shi Qionghua say that they were actually the terrifying naturally occurring storms in the Sifting Orchid Star. As to how scary they were, Ning Cheng had never directly encountered it.

  However, today Ning Cheng had actually personally seen what these ‘hurricanes’ actually were. It appeared as a dark blot within his Spiritual Consciousness; it was almost like a massive vortex of tearing Spacial Distortions. This whirlpool actually made Ning Cheng think back to that inverted vortex that had swallowed them up when he was out looking for the Geocentric 9 Yin Essence. This thing actually had a very close resemblance to it.

  Although the Battle Disc had changed its direction in time, the hurricane was still moving closer to it.
