The Gate Of Good Fortune c1-905

  Since he could now arrange Grade 5 Celestial River Array Formations, Ning Cheng naturally did not want the previously arranged layout of Grade 4 Celestial River Array Formations.

  As two more months passed by like this, Ning Cheng estimated that he had almost reached the level of a Grade 6 Imperial Array Master. Yet, the cultivator he was waiting for still hadn’t shown up.

  This frustrated Ning Cheng significantly. He had waited five months in this place. Although his attainments in the field of array formations had reached close to the level of a Grade 6 Imperial Array Master, he had accomplished nothing else.

  After re-arranging and upgrading the last array formation to a Grade 5 Celestial River Killing Formation, Ning Cheng finally dropped the final array flag. For nearly half a year that he had continuously arranged and rearranged array formations, he had even used up all of his clothes for setting up cloth arrays. Since this fellow had not returned yet, he really couldn’t set up any more array formations.

  There was a saying that went ‘a flower does not think of competing to the flower next to it. It just blooms’. Just when Ning Cheng could not set up more array formations, a ripple appeared over the Void Array Entrance.

  That fellow returned,

  Ning Cheng’s consciousness jolted awake as a spear suddenly appeared in his hand. Sure enough, in just a few breaths, a vague shadow appeared out of the ripple on the Void Array Entrance.

  That’s right, this figure was that of the female cultivator who had left in disguise before. Ning Cheng didn’t even think about it and rushed forward with the spear in hand.

  Spear Dao Spirit Technique, Traceless.

  Strictly speaking, Ning Cheng’s Traceless was not a Spirit Technique; at best, it was just a type of Spear Skill. However, as Ning Cheng’s understanding of Spear Intent reached a tipping point, his Spear Skill had started showing traces of evolving into a Spirit Technique. Along with Ning Cheng’s deeper insights into the spear, once he used it, there was not much of a difference between it and a Spirit Technique.

  One could not perceive the Traceless Spear Shadow through eyes, and it treated the space between it and the target as practically nothing. Once used, it almost instantly appeared in front of the cultivator’s eyes.

  That fellow had never thought that someone would attack him the moment he returned to his own territory. Yet, the first thing he encountered was a sneak attack.

  The moment when the Traceless Spear Shadow enveloped him, he understood that someone had broken into his territory and prepared a sneak attack for him.

  In a hurry, the cultivator shot out a punch while his figure distorted into a nothingness shadow.

  “Boom…..” A powerful counter-attack erupted, and the spear in Ning Cheng’s hand felt like it had struck an iron wall, something that could not be pierced at all.

  The Spear Shadow disappeared in an instant, and the murderous intent within it dissipated.

  “Poof.” Ning Cheng spat out a mouthful of blood on the spot while his body fell to the ground.

  Ning Cheng suddenly felt a sinking sensation in his heart. Ning Cheng thought that he had already overestimated the strength of this fellow; however, it looks like he still underestimated the opponent’s power. He had taken over this place and even waited for the other party patiently to come in before sneak attacking. However, the other party not only countered his sneak attack but also ended up injuring him. This definitely was an uninjured powerhouse in the Heaven Seated Realm.

  Such a crafty fellow, playing the role of a pig to eat the tiger. A Heaven Seated Cultivator had actually disguised oneself as a Celestial Gatherer female cultivator to pick up his low-level task.

  Although he felt his heart sinking, Ning Cheng did not give up. Grabbing the spear again, he traced a path filled with Nothingness Flame Patterns. In any case, the single spear that Ning Cheng had shot out was not truly to hurt the other party but to force the other side into his multiple array formations. He had arranged and rearranged so many Grade 5 Celestial River Killing Formations and Entrapment Formations outside the entrance and combined with his attacks, Ning Cheng didn’t believe that he wouldn’t be able to injure a Heaven Seated Cultivator.

  “Boom-Boom-Boom-Boom…..Ka-Ka-Ka-Ka……” Sounds of explosions and array formations shattering erupted almost instantly. Ning Cheng quickly realised that his Grade 5 Celestial River Array Formations were breaking one after another. Fortunately, he had already upgraded the level of these array formations. Otherwise, if he had still used only Grade 4 Celestial River Array Formations, the only choice left for him at this moment would have been to escape.

  He couldn’t let this fellow escape from his array formations; otherwise, he truly might not have another opportunity and would have to flee. Looks like the reason why he did not suffer too big of a loss against Mi Jin at that time must have something to do with Mi Jin’s rebound injuries. A true cultivator in the Heaven Seated Realm truly had a lot of power.

  “Who are you, daring to hide in this King’s place and even ambush this king?” An anger-filled voice emerged. How was this a female cultivator? This fellow clearly was a male cultivator.

  Ning Cheng did not give any reply; instead, he unleashed the endless Nothingness Flame-patterned Spears. However, apart from leaving some bloody marks on the other party, it couldn’t achieve much. If not for his array formations slowing this fellow down, Ning Cheng really would not have obtained the opportunity to attack this fellow.

  This showcased the powerful capabilities of Heaven Seated Cultivators. However, Ning Cheng only took a deep breath and rushed in. With the spear in his hand, it transformed into a flaming shadow as it shot out. This was not a Spear Skill, but his Maximal Flame Spirit Technique.

  Trapped within Ning Cheng’s seemingly endless Killing Formations and Entrapments Formations, the cultivator, suddenly felt the void surrounding him collapse. This immediately shocked him,

  was this a space-related spirit technique?

  But he managed to reign in his shock, this was not a space-related spirit technique but a false spacial collapse. An ant who clearly had not reached the Heaven Seated Realm actually dared to attack him with a false spacial collapse. The cultivator no longer tried to break through the surrounding killing formations; an instant later, a seemingly weak and mild-looking awn line shot out, which directly pierced through Ning Cheng’s Maximal Flame Spiritual Technique and stabbed into Ning Cheng.

  “Boom-Boom-Boom…..” Terrifying explosion sounds rang out as the Celestial River Flame within the Maximal Flame Spirit Technique completely wrapped itself around the cultivator.

  “Poof…..” At the same time, the seemingly weak-looking awn line, which the cultivator had brought out, penetrated through Ning Cheng’s chest and went out through Ning Cheng’s back. This weak-looking awn line had even brought out a bloody arrow on its way out.

  Ning Cheng felt as if this awn line had torn through everything inside his body, and felt that his body would immediately collapse the next moment. Even his bones had cracked apart. At this moment, however, the effects of his body forging finally kicked in and forcibly stopped the collapse of his body.

  “Oh….” Although the cultivator’s attack had hit Ning Cheng, he did not fare well, as many Killing Lights from the array formations bombarded him. At the same time, the Maximal Flame Spirit Technique had even incinerated all of his clothes. Although his robes themselves were high-quality armour, under the Celestial River Flame, it still could not stop the flame from advancing. A fist-sized bloody hole appeared at the centre of this cultivator’s chest.

  Ning Cheng knew that although that awn line had pierced through him, he suffered worse injuries compared to the other party. The fist-sized hole was nothing to a cultivator in the Heaven Seated Realm.

  “Oh, you actually are a Nirvana Body Refining Cultivator.” Although the cultivator himself had suffered many injuries, he could still see Ning Cheng standing, which made him even angrier. Seeing that, the cultivator’s Imposin
g Aura did not drop due to injuries. On the contrary, it actually grew stronger.

  Ning Cheng knew that he only had a single chance to differentiate between life and death. As long as he could fend off this cultivator’s anger, he most likely would win against the other party.

  The same moment that the cultivator’s Imposing Aura skyrocketed, Ning Cheng immediately threw out an Array Flag, which he had kept ready.

  “Boom-Boom-Boom…….” Several Grade-5 Array Formations detonated simultaneously, and the sounds of explosions mixed in with the roars of that cultivator as more and more explosions erupted.

  The surrounding area seemed to have descended into hell under the horrifying Killing Intent. At this moment, apart from the explosions and the roaring voice, only the aura of death remained all around.

  Ning Cheng knew that time was of the essence and had activated all of the array formations that he set up at once. No longer letting the cultivator smash through one array formation after another.

  “This King wants to take a look. I want to see what you would use after these array formations to block this King…..” The cultivator turned so angry that his Imposing Aura soared out of his control, wanting to tear the ant in front of him to tiny pieces. He never expected that this ant would actually be able to dare try killing him at this time using such a method.

  Although these array formations exploded almost simultaneously, did this ant actually think that it could kill a Heaven Seated King? However, because of Ning Cheng’s crazy attack, the killing move, which he wanted to use to kill Ning Cheng, had to change into a defensive move.

  Otherwise, even if he could kill this ant, he would have to suffer through some severe injuries.

  If only he knew that Ning Cheng’s next move was the Sunset’s Twilight, then even if he had to suffer through ten times heavier injuries, he would have never dared to turn defensive at this moment.

  It was a pity that the heavens did not have anything like a redo. Just when that fellow had brought out a defensive weapon, everything around him froze. That’s not it, it was not that everything came to a standstill, rather something had forced everything to slow down infinitely. The cultivator then saw his own life, just like the sun about to set, turning dull and bleak. As if, it had reached its twilight.

  That single moment looked extremely beautiful; however, it filled his heart with incomparable dread.

  The cultivator’s expressions changed dramatically, even his pupils enlarged from shock. This was the Law of Time, it definitely was the Law of Time.

  At this moment, he could no longer care about anything else. Madly burning his longevity, he wanted to expand his Sea of Consciousness forcibly to gain more power during this life and death crisis. Even if his Sea of Consciousness shattered and he ran out of longevity, he had to break out from the constraints imposed by the instantaneous pause in time. He also understood that this attack was not precisely formed by the Laws of Time; if it truly were something created by the Laws of Time, then even his thoughts would have come to a standstill, and he couldn’t have done anything.

  However, even if it was just formed from the superficial knowledge about the Laws of Time, he still couldn’t resist it.

  “Katcha…..” He finally broke free from Sunset’s Twilight cast by Ning Cheng, his Celestial Essence also started to circulate, and the world around him once again came alive. More importantly, he was no longer stationary.

  However, a spear suddenly materialised and pierced through his glabella. Time around him once again came to a standstill.

  Ning Cheng held on to the spear weakly, which barely allowed him to stand. He had truly won through luck this time. If this fellow had decided to attack him despite the explosions of array formations around him, Ning Cheng would have never obtained this opportunity. Moreover, if the array formations arranged were not Grade-5 Celestial River Array Formations, but instead Grade-4 Celestial Array Formations, such an opportunity would have never arisen.

  Even if he used Sunset’s Twilight in that situation, it would only allow him to escape at most, and he absolutely would not be able to kill such a stalwart fellow.

  The heavens did not have any ‘ifs’.

  “Laws of Time, you are that Jiangzhou’s Wanderer from the Nine-by-nine Celestial Scryer Tower…..” The cultivator hoarsely spoke up while pointing at him; however, his voice grew weaker with each passing moment.

  Although Ning Cheng had changed his appearance into that of an old man, after the two of them clashed with their Celestial Essence and Spiritual Consciousness, he had already realised that Ning Cheng was not very old. A supposedly young cultivator touching the surface of the Laws of Time; if it was not Jiangzhou’s Wanderer who took the top spot at the Nine-by-nine Celestial Scryer Tower and became famous throughout the entire Grand Culmination Starry Skies, who else could achieve such a feat?

  “I won’t spare you…..” The cultivator spoke those last words with a hoarse roar, intending to separate his already injured Life Essence.

  Ning Cheng knew what the other party wanted to do and sneered, “So what if you stepped into the Heaven Seated Realm? Did you think that the Life Essence of someone in the Heaven Seated Realm would actually have any effect on me?”

  During conversations, several Spiritual Consciousness attacks immediately locked in on the already injured Life Essence.

  “You…..” When this cultivator’s Life Essence found itself targeted by Ning Cheng’s Spiritual Consciousness attacks, it suddenly descended into despair. He knew that he was finished.

  “Let me go. I am Celestial River King Shang Mouliang of the Shang Mou Celestial River. If you kill me, Heavenly Emperor Levelled Heart would not let you go…..” The Life Essence desperately made an effort.

  Ning Cheng paused in surprise, causing his Spiritual Consciousness attacks to stop. He immediately asked, “Are you really Shang Mouliang?”

  Seeing that Ning Cheng seemed to know him, Shang Mouliang felt a glimmer of hope and spoke up eagerly, “Yes, yes, I am indeed Shang Mouliang, the Celestial River King of Shang Mou Celestial River.,,,,”

  Ning Cheng really didn’t think that he would accidentally avenge Shi Yulan. However, he immediately became excited the next moment, as he recalled that Shang Mouliang had a True Spirit World. The True Spirit World that Shang Mouliang had grabbed from Shi Yulan. If he killed Shang Mouliang, wouldn’t the True Spirit World belong to him now? Regardless of whether he would return the True Spirit World to Shi Yulan in the future, he really lacked such a thing currently.

  The Exploding Golden Wasps and Chasing Bull could only remain in the Miniature World that he had placed in the Minor Five-element Array Formation within the Mysterious Yellow Bead under extremely high-risk conditions, which was not a permanent solution.

  “Were you the one who deliberately sent out the Metal Origin Crystal? What did you want to do using such actions?” Ning Cheng gave a snort and took out a crystal wrapped in a layer of Exotic Desolate Extreme Essence.

  Shang Mouliang’s heart sank once again. It initially looked like Ning Cheng had not killed him because of him being Shang Mouliang. But now, he realised that he had ended up smashing his own foot with his own rock.

  “If you’re willing to let go of my Life Essence, I will definitely tell you everything,” Shang Mouliang still kept hoping that Ning Cheng would spare his life.

  Ning Cheng spoke up with disdain, “If you don’t want to say, then you can go die…..”

  While talking, Ning Cheng’s Spiritual Consciousness Blades drew closer, lessening the space between it and the target.

  Shang Mouliang’s Life Essence felt a cold chill run down its back, and no longer dared to ask for mercy before quickly speaking up, “I’ll speak. I ha
ve a True Spirit World……”

  “Less nonsense, I asked why you deliberately took out this crystal.” Although Ning Cheng cast the Sunset’s Twilight, his exhausted Celestial Essence had gradually recovered; moreover, he was not in a hurry to destroy Shang Mouliang’s Life Essence.

  “Yes, yes.” Shang Mouliang replied, “I originally found some Metal Origin Crystals, I wanted to use them to see if anyone else was also looking for Origins. I already had obtained a Metal Origin Bead, if I could obtain the rest of the five elemental origins, I could use them to upgrade the True Spirit World into a quasi-Primal Chaos World. Something far more powerful compared to the True Spirit World……”

  Shang Mouliang had actually obtained the Metal Origin Bead and was even eagerly searching for the rest of the Origin beads.

  From the looks of it, he planned to get the search for the Origin Beads by tracking down the cultivators looking for them. In any case, it was also how he got the Metal Origin Bead. One had to say, Shang Mouliang did not have the wrong idea. The cultivators wanting to get their hands on the Origin Beads or had obtained them, almost all of them would keep their existence a secret but would keep track of everything related to it.

  He believed that if there was a cultivator who coveted the Metal Origin Bead, he could take the initiative to lure them out, in the hopes of obtaining information. Moreover, because he also had got too many Metal Origin Crystals, he wanted to use them to test out this method. As for whether this method worked or not in his favour, he did not pay much attention to it.

  Over the years, several cultivators came looking for his whereabouts while tracking the movement of the Metal Origin Crystals. However, these cultivators only came for either the Metal Origin Bead or more Origin Crystal. None of them had any information about the other Origin Beads. But since these cultivators came to look for his whereabouts, he naturally erased them all.
