Ning Cheng only raised his foot to take a step forward, with a face full of disdain. His foot looked like it was about to viciously trample down on something, while he did not even put down Tian Muwan, who was still in his embrace. Let alone bringing out a magical weapon, since he recovered his cultivation to that of a late-stage Soul Essence Cultivator, as such using a Magical Weapon to kill a Profound Congealing Ant; it would really be the joke of the town.
When Ning Cheng moved, the scarlet-robed man immediately felt the space around him turn into a quagmire-like state. He felt as if he was a turtle struggling in a marsh, causing each individual stroke of movement to be extremely difficult.
He could only watch Ning Cheng’s foot enlarge in front of his eyes as it descended. Other than the horror that took root in his heart, his entire being felt as if he was forcibly plunged headfirst into an ice cold cavern.
Since making a debut, he had never felt such a terrifying feeling. That was because he was always the one who gave others this feeling. Any person who dared to oppose him, he personally subjected them to this kind of terrifying pressure before finally crushing them. He never could have imagined that this kind of situation would actually occur on him.
Who was this person? How did he possess this kind of terrifying strength? This kind of power was far stronger than any cultivator who condensed their Golden Core.
“Senior… This junior had eyes but couldn’t see Mt.Tai…. Senior, please show mercy……” Lian Yong had never begged for mercy in front of any human before, but today he had no choice but to ask for forgiveness. At this moment, he even hated himself for not being an expert in begging for mercy.
“Bang…..” The long knife in the scarlet-robed man’s hand had not fallen to the ground yet, when his entire body plunged into the ground under the stomp from Ning Cheng’s foot, causing him to unable to move even an inch. Sounds of bones breaking resounded, which he was able to hear clearly.
Ning Cheng only used a fraction of his actual power through his foot, yet it still caused bloody froth to flow out of the scarlet-robed man’s mouth. The scarlet-robed man genuinely wanted to continue to beg for mercy, but unfortunately, he just was not even able to form the words in his mind let alone speak it out.
“Did you not know that this long knife was given to Yin Yihui by me? I initially did not have enough time to look for you because of some urgent matters, but it looks like you are quite the good-natured fellow that you even brought me my knife back.” Hearing Ning Cheng’s words, it caused the scarlet-robed man to want to vomit out blood from his heart.
When he obtained the long knife, he had ordered Yan Rui to look for Ning Cheng. Moreover, after he arrived at the Hundred Bay Point, he heard that high-grade Essence Weapons were on full display at the Hundred Bay Point. If he knew that the person with the high-grade Essence Weapons was this terrifying, even if he had to cut off his hands, he would never dare to come here.
Ning Cheng did not immediately stamp this scarlet-robed man to death; he first glanced at Tian Muwan in his embrace. Tian Muwan had forcefully imploded her meridians; however, that scarlet robbed man’s Spiritual Consciousness also invaded her extremities before she could complete the process. This kind of injury, besides him, Ning Cheng estimated that no one would be able to cure it on Earth.
He then vaguely saw something familiar hanging over Tian Muwan’s neck, something similar to the profile of the pearl hair clip that he had initially given her.
However, Ning Cheng suddenly felt disappointed because of it; apparently, this pearl hair clip was not the one he had given to her. The piece that he had initially given to her was pure white, but this pearl hair clip was actually pink.
He recalled the words he heard from Tian Muwan’s mouth from that time, when she spoke to Zha Ziyi, “If you lost it, then just buy a new one for me. Let’s go.”
He had honestly not expected that she would actually let him buy it.
“Big Brother Ning……” Seeing Ning Cheng in a daze, Yi Lei cautiously called out from the side.
Ning Cheng immediately sobered up; taking out a Cleansing Rain Pill, he placed it in Tian Muwan’s mouth. The pill turned into Spiritual Liquid the moment it entered Tian Muwan’s mouth before it slid down and dispersed into Tian Muwan’s body.
The Cleansing Rain Pill was a Rank 6 Profound Pill; moreover, it even belonged to the top tier among the Profound Pills that could help in healing damaged meridians and dantian. Even in the world of True Cultivators, the Cleansing Rain Pill was precious. Tian Muwan’s injuries were severe, but with the help of the Cleansing Rain Pill, she would be able to recover in like less than half a day, without even needing to unlock its medicinal nature.
Ning Cheng found an External Domain Hotel’s room card in Tian Muwan’s pocket. The room card with etched with the words ‘Exclusive Zone, 7001’.
He then handed the card to Yi Lei and spoke, “Yi Lei, help me out this once. Deliver Tian Muwan to her room; it’s the External Domain Hotel’s room 7001. I believe that you would be able to deliver her quickly, given your skill.”
Finished speaking, Ning Cheng then took out a talisman and handed it to Yi Lei before speaking, “This talisman is a Stealth Talisman. You don’t have to ask anything about it, just hang this talisman around your body, as long as you don’t bump into others, or speak with others, no one will be able to spot you let alone stop you.”
This Yi Lei’s skill was definitely above Yin Yihui’s, so for her to deliver Tian Muwan to her hotel room, it should not take her much time.
“Aah…..” Yi Lei received the Stealth Talisman with a somewhat vacant look along with Tian Muwan, from Ning Cheng’s hand, and was a bit stunned for a while.
Stealth Talisman? Was there such a strange thing in this world?
However, she soon put aside the Stealth Talisman and quickly spoke up, “Big Brother Ning, I must lead you to the Jabbes Line of Defence, and….”
Ning Cheng waved his hand to stop Yi Lei’s words and spoke, “I know, therefore you will have to return quickly, I will be waiting for you right here. All you have to do is to put Tian Muwan to bed in her room. Tian Muwan will wake up automatically by herself later; you don’t have to worry about anything else.”
Hearing that Ning Cheng would wait for her in this spot, Yi Lei no longer spoke anything. She hurriedly secured Tian Muwan and quickly left the area. Although she believed that Ning Cheng would not deceive her, she still wanted to return as soon as possible.
After Yi Lei went away, Ning Cheng then loosened his foot as he looked at the red-haired man and spoke, “Answer me, the True Cultivator Cultivation Method that you cultivate, where did you get it? If you dare to even utter half a word of a lie, I will immediately extract your soul.”
In fact, Ning Cheng did not know how to extract a soul, but he knew that True Cultivators were the most afraid of soul extraction and soul refinement.
“Yes, Yes, I will tell you. I was born with some sort of True Cultivator Cultivation Method inside my head. The more I cultivated, the more things emerged in my mind. I don’t seem to be a person from this world; rather I seemed to have arrived from another place…..” The scarlet-robed man quickly spoke up.
Ning Cheng pressed his foot down slightly again, “You’re lying, even if pieces of your Spiritual Soul were reincarnated into this world, your cultivation would still not be able to increase this fast.”
The Earth lacked Spiritual Qi; moreover, this fellow even regarded a High-Grade Magical Artefact as a treasure, as such, he had indeed had not seen more of the good stuff.
“I’ll say it, Senior, you have to spare…..” The scarlet-robed man spits out another mouthful of blood before he quickly begged for mercy.
“Then say it.” Ning Cheng’s foot lifted up slightly.
“Senior, you have to ensure to spare my life, only then I will say it…..” The scarlet-robed man finally found an excuse to try to coerce Ning Cheng.
Ning Cheng did not answer the words of this scarlet-robe
d cultivator. He was currently a Soul Essence Cultivator, if a Profound Congealing Cultivator could threaten him, then he might as well smash his head into soft tofu and commit suicide.
True Essence directly rushed out from the sole of feet as it started to tear into the body of the scarlet robbed cultivator, causing the scarlet robbed cultivator’s face to twist up in pain, “Senior, I’ll say it, I’ll say it, just please kill me quickly…..”
……
Ten minutes later, Ning Cheng cast out a fireball to ignite a flame, turning this scarlet-robed cultivator into ashes. He had already understood why this scarlet robbed cultivator’s cultivation was able to rise up so quickly. Initially, this fellow possessed a Wood Spiritual Root, but at the same time, also found a cultivation spot that unusually speeded up his cultivation because it complemented the nature of Spiritual Root. As long as he cultivated in that place, his strength would continue to rise.
Ning Cheng had lived on Earth for more than 20 years, but this was still the first time for him to hear about the Feral Brook Mountains. According to the words of that scarlet-robed man, this mountain was located in a region near to the edge of the Southern Skies. Ning Cheng decided to wait for the time being. He would head over to the Feral Brook Mountains once he had taken care of the other things. Who knows, there might even be a treasure there?
Knowing that a master was not guiding the scarlet robbed cultivator, Ning Cheng also felt somewhat relieved. There were no real True Cultivator Powerhouses on Earth. If there were such people, then if his body were not in the best condition, it would not be a good thing for him.
As for where Tian Muwan’s Cultivation Method she cultivated in came from, Ning Cheng did not want to inquire about it. The Chinese Taoist Civilisation has been around for thousands of years; as such, it would still be within expectations if it had some lower-level cultivation methods that could help cultivate some Spiritual Sense. Only, if there were no cultivation resources, not to mention Earth, even if was the Tian Continent, growth would be limited. Tian Muwan would only be able to cultivate to the Qi Gathering 9th Level, and this was even if she was fortunate. He just did not need to think about it but instinctively knew it. Tian Muwan might have better qualifications than Dai Xin, but in the future, her achievements would not be higher than Dai Xin.
Yi Lei’s speed was indeed fast; it was not only fast but also when she returned, she even directly drove a car to right in front of him.
“Big Brother Ning, I delivered Tian Muwan to her room, now should we make our way to the Jabbes Line of Defence?” After Yi Lei got out, her expression was even more respectful and prudent. She did not see that scarlet-robed cultivator; presumably, Ning Cheng took ‘good’ care of that scarlet robbed cultivator.
As for that Stealth Talisman that Ning Cheng had given her, she did not even dare to ask about it. That Stealth Talisman was just as its name implied. She wore the Stealth Talisman just as Ning Cheng had told her to before entering the External Domain Hotel. However, nobody stopped her or even seemed to have seen her. Nevertheless, after she left the hotel, that Stealth Talisman mysteriously turned to ashes.
This Big Brother Ning was definitely a capable person. Even that first ranked Major Expert, Xing Liang, at the Jabbes Line of Defence, might not be an opponent for Ning Cheng. If Ning Cheng was willing to help them, then they might have a chance at really saving the Jabbes Line of Defence.

Ning Cheng nodded before speaking, “It must have been hard on you, we’ll take the Battle Disc though……”
Finished saying that, Ning Cheng directly took out the Rank 5 Battle Disc.
“Is that a flying saucer?” Yi Lei stared at this huge black coloured Battle Disc in front of her in complete shock, while her mind turned utterly chaotic.
From where did this flying saucer suddenly pop out? Why did Ning Cheng possess a flying saucer?
Ning Cheng looked at the stunned Yi Lei before speaking, “Yi Lei, since you are accompanying me to the same place, then although you might see a few astonishing scenes, I hope that you do not inquire about it, that’s the first thing that I ask. The second thing, no matter what you see, I hope that you would not publicise any of it.”
Yi Lei immediately sobered up and spoke up, “Big Brother Ning, I promise to not say anything about it.”
Since the emergence of the insect swarm on Earth, Yi Lei had thought that it was already the most shocking thing and had never imagined that she would be able to see things that were even more shocking.
“Since that’s the case, then get on the Battle Disc. The Jabbes Line of Defence might not be able to hold on for long.” Ning Cheng spoke.
Hearing the words ‘Jabbes Line of Defence’, Yi Lei instantly sobered up, she quickly put aside the countless questions in her heart, as she followed Ning Cheng into the Battle Disc that she considered to be a flying saucer.
After Yi Lei entered the battle disc, she once again couldn’t help but look around with a vacant look on her face. This flying saucer was not what she had imagined being, something that contained many control panels and buttons. After she came in, she just saw a leisure room in front of her. “Go to the Jabbes Line of Defence.” Ning Cheng did not care about Yi Lei’s shock. After he sat down, he directly issued the order. The surface area of Earth was quite small and was unlike the Sifting Orchid Star. With such a small surface area, Ning Cheng did not need to supply Sifting Orchid with any directions or maps, as the Sifting Orchid would be able to use its radar to locate the required positions easily.
Yi Lei did not even feel any vibration. She just noticed the surrounding white clouds. In other words, this flying saucer had already taken flight.
She instantly understood that this was a high-tech airship. She had never imagined that flight technology would be able to evolve to such a level.
What kind of technology was this?
Even if they went hundred years into the future of Earth, would they ever be able to reach such a degree?
Yi Lei very much wanted to ask Ning Cheng. However, she did not dare to ask and was afraid that she would anger Ning Cheng. Moreover, Ning Cheng had also mentioned it before, ‘to not ask about anything’.
“Master, we have arrived at the Jabbes Line of Defence. This Line of Defence would soon be breached, please instruct…..”
Sifting Orchid’s voice resounded inside, immediately causing Yi Lei to go into shock once again. She quickly realised that this flying saucer also contained an AI. This flying saucer was too formidable.
She really was not able to contain the shock of Sifting Orchid this time. She was just about to ask from where Ning Cheng obtained this flying saucer when she immediately noticed people retreating in all directions outside of the airship. Even the laser wall was on the brink of dissipating, to the point that there were just no laser beams visible. The insects were tearing apart even the custom laser artillery after the flying insects caught hold of them and threw them down, causing broken parts to rain down like a rain of metal.
Yi Lei turned utterly paralysed; the words and questions that she wanted to ask Ning Cheng swallowed up.
It looks like they were already too late, if not for Ning Cheng wishing to help Tian Muwan, if not for Ning Cheng delaying things for a day more, they would have definitely more time. However, could she blame Ning Cheng?
She just had no right to or even qualified to accuse someone like Ning Cheng.
……
Jabbes Line of Defence’s Headquarters. An old man was clutching his phone and yelling at it in a nearly violent manner. Other than the words ‘emergency’, ‘support’, ‘killing insects’, ‘hold on’, one was just not able to hear anything else.
“Commander Zhan. Those insects have broken th
rough the Line of Defence. We have to hurry up and retreat. Any later than now, then we would never be able to leave this place.” A young looking officer arrived in front of the old man and whispered it out to him.
The old man managed to recover a bit of his sanity while staring at this young looking officer in front of him with bloodshot eyes, before he shouted, “You told me to retreat, was it you who told me to retreat? So many of the soldiers died. Too many people have died to defend this Line of Defence, how can you tell me to retreat? Fuck off. Get the fuck out of here…..”
The old man shoved away the young looking officer with his palm, and once again grabbed the phone. He screamed into it to the point that his voice had reached the level of a high-pitched hissing-like sound, “Jabbes needs reinforcements, requesting for reinforcements. I will defend the Jabbes location, determined not to take a step back, Jabbes Line of Defence……”
“Boom….” A dark shadow arrived after breaking through the window glass before rushing into the command room.
It was a red-winged insect, just as the insect came in; it immediately swiped at the old man holding the phone with its claws. The young looking officer who had just advised the old man to retreat raised his assault rifle and let loose with the bullets. However, these bullets on hitting the red flying insects, behaved as if they encountered an impregnable steel plate, only giving off a few sparks.
This young looking officer enraged the red-winged insect. Giving up on the old man, it immediately grabbed the young looking officer. In just a moment, the insect picked up the officer, at the same time, its two claws tore apart that young looking officer into two halves, causing the blood to splash all around the walls.
The old man looked at the two halves of the young officer’s body before throwing down the phone in his hands and drawing out the machete hanging from his waist.
