Ning Cheng remained silent; he couldn’t help but think that Yi Lei’s premonition was accurate.
Seeing Ning Cheng silent, Yi Lei realised that her words were not wrong. She looked at Ning Cheng’s severely wounded waist before whispering, “The fact was, I wanted to wait until you killed the Insect Queen before giving myself to you. It was not because I want to be together with you, and not as a way of thanks. Instead, because I loved the words that you spoke before. A woman’s most precious thing, it must be given to the person that they really love…”
After saying those words to herself, Yi Lei exhaled a mouthful of air, while her complexion also turned a lot more cheerful, “Big Brother Ning, I know that I don’t deserve you, but after saying those words, I feel much more comfortable……”
Yi Lei after saying those words walked towards the cabin door. She really was feeling very comfortable. At least, during the entire process of Ning Cheng killing those insects, she had followed by his side. She was even able to say those words from the deepest parts of her heart.
“Yi Lei…..” Ning Cheng stopped Yi Lei, “I can’t say about anything else, but we might truly not meet each other again….”
Yi Lei turned around. There was a relaxed expression on her face, meaning that she already knew about it.
“I’d like to give you a suggestion. In the future, do not go back to the Jabbes Line of Defence. If you can, then also withdraw from the Alliance. As for those insects, I will take care of it. Besides, staying inside the Alliance is not something suitable for people like you.” Ning Cheng slowly said.
Ning Cheng had thought about these words for a long time. He guessed that Yi Lei might not withdraw from the Alliance, but he still could not help but say it aloud.
“I know, even if it were not you who said those words, I would not continue working for the Alliance. After you refused to go to the Jabbes Line of Defence for recuperation, I was able to understand many matters. You don’t need to be worried; I’m not as stupid as you think.” Yi Lei gave a reply with a smile.
Ning Cheng gave a sigh, he took out a knife and a book before handing it to Yi Lei and spoke up “You can keep this Essence Weapon with you, but do not let others see it. As for this book, it is a Cultivation Method for Martial Cultivation that I had obtained from another place. I wrote it down in it. You do not have any Spiritual Root to speak of, so I don’t know if you would be able to cultivate this Martial Cultivation Method. If you can’t cultivate it then just burn this book in the future. Thank you for the consideration that you showed me, but the truth is I already have a wife……”
Yi Lei collected the dagger and the book from Ning Cheng, before watching the black flying saucer disappear into the sky. She finally was not able to resist her eyes turning blurry.
She had fallen in love with this man the moment he had rushed out to stop that Insect Queen. There was just no reason for it, no process to it, just plain and simple love. When she saw this man entirely covered in blood and still fighting that Insect Queen, she could not help but wish to provide any kind of assistance. However, from the beginning to the end, she was well aware that this man never would belong to her. She really did not know what kind of woman could even be qualified to become this man’s wife.
……
The Feral Brooke Mountain was a very inconspicuous place. A ring gently drifted down towards it before burying itself into the ground, this ring was the one engraved with a Concealment Restriction to keep it hidden.
This was Ning Cheng’s Miniature World Ring. Ning Cheng stayed inside the Miniature World Ring for ten days. During these ten days, Ning Cheng’s injuries healed up perfectly. Although his Body-Forging was still some distance away from a Rank 6 Imperial Body, it had taken a considerable step forward compared to before, all because of the recent battle.
Ning Cheng did not come out from the Miniature World Ring; he wanted to restore his cultivation to his peak inside his Miniature World Ring. Knowing that the Earth was not as steady as he imagined, Ning Cheng knew that he had no choice but to restore his cultivation as soon as possible. By this time, he was already able to regain his strength to the Soul Essence 9th Level.
Another week later, when Ning Cheng’s cultivation began to slow down, he took a long breath. At this moment, he had fully restored his strength to his previous peak of 4th Level of Soul Sculpting Realm.
Although he had restored his cultivation, Ning Cheng still did not choose to come out of his Miniature World Ring. Instead, he took out the 36 Small Axes.
These 36 Axes were those that Cang Wei had helped him refine; there were 18 Cosmic True Axes and 18 Extreme Devil True Axes. Not only that, all 36 of these Small Axes were Best Quality True Artefacts.
In the Tian Continent, just a single Best Quality True Artefact was already a priceless treasure, so what can be said about a set of 36 Best Quality True Artefacts? If Ning Cheng’s Spiritual Consciousness were not strong enough, then he just would never be able to control these 36 Best Quality True Artefacts, no matter how much he wanted to.
Even though Cang Wei specifically refined these 36 Axes for Ning Cheng, Ning Cheng still took a full week to retrofit it for himself.
One week later, 18 golden coloured Axe Shadows and 18 pitch-black coloured Axe Shadows started revolving around Ning Cheng. Feeling the power feedback from these 36 Axes, Ning Cheng’s confidence increased significantly.
Once these 36 Axes arranged themselves into an Axe Array, while augmenting with his Axe Intent, it would definitely turn into the most ruthless and powerful killing tool. Even if he had to battle it out with the Insect Queen once again at this moment, Ning Cheng believed that he would not need to induce the detonation of the Net Type Spiritual Artefact, yet still be able to severely injure that colossal Insect Queen.
Ning Cheng finally left the Miniature World Ring and came out. Stimulated by the several time’s more powerful Spiritual Consciousness, the 36 Small Axes transformed into an intertwining line of yellow-and-black in just an instant. Causing the surrounding air to stagnate completely. The next moment this Axe Trace stuck the Feral Brook Mountain near to its summit, creating a nearly hundred feet deep chasm to emerge in front of him.
Ning Cheng couldn’t help but gasp,
wasn’t this just the Angry Axe’s First Trace?
This kind of usage of the Angry Axe’s First Trace, it was much more powerful compared to what it was initially.
A heroic spirit seemed to have germinated in Ning Cheng’s heart once again, as the 36 Axe Shadows sliced through the air in an unobtrusive and unobservable arc, causing twisting and distorting Axe Shadows to emerge that seemed to want to tear through everything in its path. There were even indistinct cracks visible in the surrounding air; presumably, any kind of life that tried to touch these crack would not be able to survive at all.
This was the Angry Axe’s Third Form, the Axe Line. Displaying the Third Form through this method caused the killing intent inside it to turn even more swift and fierce.
Under the control of Ning Cheng’s Spiritual Consciousness, this Axe Line instantly curled up in itself and transformed into a massive whirlpool. Just like the howls coming from an actual tornado, the chasm formed by the First Trace, under the killing power of this hurricane, completely vanished in just a moment, before it even touched the ground. It was as if an invisible giant shovel had cleaned it out thoroughly.
“Bang….” The tornado finally gathered before striking the ground. Instantly revealing the hard rocks beneath the ground, which then transformed into a yellow mist instantly. This was the Angry Axe’s Second Form, Tornado.
These 36 Best Qualify True Artefacts were continuously giving out a formidable killing power, even if he used the same moves as before, compared to the previous instances, it was more than ten times more dangerous.
Ning Cheng finally stood on the summit and gave out a loud shout; he finally had the qualifications to gain a foothold for himself in the world. As long as he was able to learn Spirit
ual Techniques, even if he had to face Crucible Transformation Cultivators in the future, he would still have the authority to make them actually hear his words. If he was not able to defeat them, he could still be able to walk away calmly.

With his cultivation restored, plus the 36 Axes also retrofitted to himself, Ning Cheng finally felt a lot better than before. He swept out with his Spiritual Consciousness in a much broader range than before. He wanted to see if there truly were any good things in the Feral Brooke Mountains, or at least find the reason why that scarlet-robed man’s cultivation had progressed so fast.
One had to know that the Earth was deficient in Spiritual Qi; if there genuinely were no treasures in this place then even if the qualifications of the scarlet-robed man were even higher, it would be impossible for him to reach the peak of Profound Congealing Realm with just a few decades of cultivation. After all, this place was not the Yi Xing Mainland where even someone with much lower qualifications could cultivate with relative ease.
However, two hours later, Ning Cheng felt disappointed. He had carefully scanned every single inch of the area within a hundred miles of the Feral Brooke Mountains; however, he was not able to find any trace of precious treasures. He could not even see a single Spiritual Grass.
It looks like that scarlet-robed man had lied to him. If he did not lie then the scarlet-robed man definitely had another secret to his cultivation. That is, for the scarlet-robed man to achieve this kind of cultivation speed, it was definitely not possible in the Feral Brooke Mountains.
Ning Cheng did not feel too much of a loss about it though, he already possessed many heaven-defying objects on him anyway. If he could find any treasures in this place, then it was his fortune, if he could not locate anything, then it was also another type of fortune.
With his strength restored, Ning Cheng first planned to destroy that colossal insect. The longer he dragged it, the more unfavourable it would turn out for him. That Insect Queen absolutely did not have many resources to recover from its injuries or restore its cultivation. As such, this was the perfect time to look for the Insect Queen.
Although Ning Cheng’s current cultivation reached the 4th Level of Soul Sculpting Realm, he still had no way to sweep his Spiritual Consciousness over the entire Earth; as such, he could only draw support from the Rank 5 Battle Disc. The Rank 5 Battle Disc quickly found the impact site of the meteor-stone within the borders of Russia; at the same time, he also discovered that the Insect Queen had turned that area around it into its lair.
In just over half an hour, the Rank 5 Battle Disc landed in the barren desert. Ning Cheng put away the Battle Disc, while his eyes glanced towards the enormous mountain-like meteor-stone in front of him. The crater along with this meteor-stone had a honeycomb-like structure, with numerous nascent insects sticking to the outer surface of this colossal meteor-stone.
What made Ning Cheng a bit doubtful was that except for those nascent insects sticking to the meteor-stone, there were no other Demon Insects around here. It seems those Demon Insects would be driven away from this meteor-stone as long as they could stand and take independent action by themselves.
Since Ning Cheng had already come here, that colossal Insect Queen inside the meteor-stone was also able to detect his arrival. The Insect Queen immediately issued a roar, before coming out on top of the meteor-stone.
Ning Cheng waved a hand, and the 36 Axes instantly appeared and began circling around his body; at the same time, that long spear-like rod, that Ning Cheng was unable to refine, appeared in his hand. Although his own Cultivation had risen sharply, because the Insect Queen’s strength had also dropped significantly, its roar just did not have any effect on him anymore.
This Insect Queen, before falling to Earth, must have been a terrifying existence; Ning Cheng feared that even if it were a host of Crucible Transformation Cultivators, in front of it, they would only be akin to ants. Since he was facing such a terrifying existence, how could Ning Cheng dare to be negligent?
‘A skinny camel was still larger than a healthy horse’
, not to mention that the Insect Queen was not a skinny camel, while this place here also was its lair.
The Insect Queen stared at Ning Cheng before letting out an angry scream; it seemed as if it was trying to say to Ning Cheng that he should not butt into other people’s business.
Ning Cheng did not care about the Insect Queen’s scream, the 36 Small Axes immediately gathered and smashed through the air with tearing sounds. In just a twinkling of an eye, an Axe Line emerged with black and white intertwining with each other.
“Bang…..” But when the black and white intertwining Axe Trace stuck the enormous meteorite, it caused Ning Cheng’s 36 Small Axes to instantly scatter away, even the unprecedented killing power accompanying it disappeared without a trace.
Ning Cheng couldn’t help but stare at this meteor-stone in shock. He was well aware that even if this meteor-stone turned out to be extremely hard, it would still turn into powder under his First Trace. However, this meteor-stone did not suffer even a single scratch. Not only that but when his axes struck the outer shell, he immediately was able to determine that it was definitely not a meteor-stone at all. Instead, it was actually a Magical Weapon.
Ning Cheng had just realised that this thing was a Magical Weapon when he felt the Insect Queen’s Imposing Aura suddenly start to skyrocket, completely disintegrating his own Imposing Aura.
Facing this kind of formidable Imposing Aura, Ning Cheng’s face paled as he backed up by a dozen steps. This kind of Imposing Aura, he had never felt from even Crucible Transformation Cultivators. Instead, it was actually on the same level as the Imposing Aura that he had felt from Eldest Brother Cang Wei. This was definitely the Imposing Aura cultivated within the vast starry skies.
This was not good at all,
Ning Cheng tightly held onto the long spear while staring at the Insect Queen atop the meteorite.
Facing this kind of Imposing aura, he just could not move forward. If it were any other place, then Ning Cheng would have already prepared the Talisman to head back to the Yi Xing Mainland. However, Ruolan was still here so he cannot leave this place at all.
In Ning Cheng’s mind, all sorts of crazy ideas were flashing by on how to deal with this Insect Queen, when the enormous meteor-stone suddenly started spinning. At the same time, it also brought forth an intermittent humming-like sound.
This thing really is a Magical Weapon;
Ning Cheng had just thought of this when the Insect Queen’s Imposing Aura reached such formidable levels to the point that he was even feeling difficulty breathing. As this Imposing Aura washed over him, Ning Cheng immediately vomited out a mouthful of blood. He just did not think at all, and quickly activated the Twin Wings of the Heavenly Clouds and instantly moved back.
Only when he retreated by almost ten kilometres did Ning Cheng finally stop. In this place, the oppression from the Imposing Aura was much smaller. Just that terrifying Imposing Aura from before was already enough to kill him several times over, it was no wonder that this Insect Queen was this heaven-defying.
However, even though he knew that he was not a match for the Insect Queen, Ning Cheng still used his Spiritual Consciousness to watch the Insect Queen’s movements carefully, who was still standing atop the meteor-stone. He realised that this might be the Insect Queen’s secret technique that overdrew on its vitality; otherwise, it was impossible for this already severely injured Insect Queen to grow this powerful suddenly. As long as he could endure until the power of this secret technique depleted, he would definitely be able to take the upper hand.
Moreover, the Insect Queen also did not dare to leave this Meteor-stone Magical Weapon to attac
k him. Ning Cheng guessed that this Insect Queen was actually using this Meteor-stone Magical Weapon to activate its secret technique; otherwise, she would have already struck out.
However, the rotation speed of the meteor-stone was getting faster and faster, to the point that even Ning Cheng’s Spiritual Consciousness was not able to keep up. After a few breaths, the Insect Queen erupted with a sharp cry that was powerful enough to rupture eardrums. At the same time, she outstretched her body atop the meteor-stone and opened its large mouth before biting down on the air in front of it.
A pitch-black passage was directly bitten open by the Insect Queen; Ning Cheng was also able to see it with his Spiritual Consciousness. A vast aura of the starry sky outside came pouring in from the other side. Ning Cheng couldn’t help but look in shock at this pitch-black passage. Although he had never attempted to tear the Void before, he realised this chomp definitely ripped apart the Void Boundary.
The Insect Queen was actually able to tear the Void Boundary with its chomp; just what kind of terrifying existence was it? Even if the Void Boundary of the Earth was weak, it was still not something that others could tear through easily. If the Insect Queen had used this secret technique in the last battle between them, then even blessed with a hundred lives, it would still not be enough to keep his life intact.
Sporadic Spacial Wind Blades flew out from the Void, one of which descended onto Ning Cheng. Ning Cheng just did not dare to block it using the long spear, and directly brought out his Everlasting Blue Thunder City.
“Ka Cha.” With a clear sound, this Spacial Wind Edge directly turned the Everlasting Blue Thunder City’s shadow into nothingness. At this moment, Ning Cheng saw the meteor-stone, along with the Insect Queen and innumerable nascent insects rushing into that black hole-like tear, before disappearing in a flash.
