Cultivating with Top Enlightenment Chapter 662 - 293: He May Reign Supreme over Mountain and Sea (Part 3)

Previously on Cultivating with Top Enlightenment...
Ning Qi selected three precious dragon scales from Niu Mo Upper Sect's treasury to enhance his own treasures, then used the sect's materials to upgrade their Sect Protection Array, infusing it with his Primordial Spirit Power. The array proved its might when Niu Dingtian, in his massive Dharma Aspect form, collided with it at full force, only to be repelled and shatter his horns, leaving the demons in awe of its superior strength compared to Feather Transformation Upper Sect's defenses. Ning Qi then constructed a small teleportation array linking the sects, prompting Niu Dingtian to pledge personal loyalty to him, before opening a grand spatial gate to swiftly return to Infinite Sword Sect with his companions aboard a Treasure Ship.

In fact, during their trip to the Niu Mo Upper Sect, the Teleportation Array wasn't employed at all.

Back then, right before departing from the Infinite Sword Sect, Ning Qi had only recently constructed a massive Teleportation Array right there in the Infinite Sword Sect, though it lacked any spatial coordinates linking to the Niu Mo Upper Sect.

However, this return to the sect stood apart; armed with the array's coordinates from the Infinite Sword Sect, Ning Qi could effortlessly activate a Teleportation Gate to whisk them all back in an instant.

Standing nearby, the folks from the Infinite Sword Sect were encountering this strange form of teleportation for the very first time, and even the Sword Ancestor found the whole thing utterly fascinating.

Without the worry that several True Inheritors among them might struggle to adjust, Ning Qi would have unleashed the five-colored Treasure Ship for everyone to board, offering that added safeguard.

Naturally, despite acting as test subjects on their inaugural journey, they all held firm faith in Ning Qi. Any inner anxieties stayed buried, as they projected an outward composure.

Hadn't the demonic beasts at Niu Mo Upper Sect been watching their every move so intently?

Right now, heads might tumble, blood might flow, lives might end, yet the Infinite Sword Sect's honor absolutely could not be tarnished!

The five-colored Treasure Ship soared upward and dove straight into the Teleportation Gate without delay.

Only after the ship's rear fully vanished inside did the Teleportation Gate abruptly contract and fade away completely.

The Niu Mo Upper Sect's demonic beasts gawked in stunned silence at the gone figures of the Infinite Sword Sect group, every one of them brimming with astonishment.

Ning Qi's personal power was already plenty fearsome, and the Infinite Sword Sect disciples he commanded rivaled the elite prodigies from rival sects.

Yet that paled in comparison to Ning Qi's skill in summoning a Teleportation Gate to shuttle such a vast number of mighty experts in a flash.

From the looks on their faces moments ago, it appeared this group had grown used to traveling through the void.

Should this array see use in battle, it would become an unstoppable force on the move!

The sole remaining Integration Ancestor in the Niu Mo Upper Sect went by Kong Caichen, his original form that of a Peacock King. He cast a look at the Teleportation Array Ning Qi had installed inside their Niu Mo Upper Sect and abruptly remarked:

"Brother Niu, Brother Hu, doesn't having this Teleportation Array inside our sect pose a certain risk?"

Niu Dingtian and Hu Xiaotian caught his drift right away; Kong Caichen feared that Ning Qi's claim of allowing five token-holders to access this Teleportation Array might not hold him back.

Evidently, Ning Qi could flip the setup around and flood the place with a horde of arrivals in no time.

Still, the pair simply shook their heads in response.

Hu Xiaotian spoke up, "Brother Kong, it's wise to stay cautious with outsiders, but since you remained here to protect the sect and skipped joining us, you haven't seen what Ning Qi is truly capable of."

His tigerish gaze gleamed, as if brimming with insight.

"At present, the alliance forged between the Niu Mo Upper Sect and the Infinite Sword Sect might not mean much to Ning Qi himself, but for our Niu Mo Upper Sect, it's a golden chance like no other!"

Niu Dingtian added, "That's right, Brother Kong; you'll grasp it bit by bit as time goes on."

Kong Caichen's slender eyes tightened a touch; he figured he could rely on anyone who had earned the loyalty of both Brother Niu and Brother Hu.

Only, he had yet to journey alongside Ning Qi and remained in the dark about his full story.

"Brother Niu, why not fill me in on Ning Qi?"

Niu Dingtian let out a laugh and pivoted, declaring, "You could end up frightened if I did."

Hu Xiaotian felt a spark of curiosity too, having only lately glimpsed Ning Qi's chilling prowess on this trip.

Niu Dingtian summoned Niu Man and the rest of the beasts, intending to recount everything from their earliest meetings with Ning Qi all the way through their adventures in the Profound Truth Secret Realm.

This gathering pulled in the Niu Mo Upper Sect's demonic beasts, who clustered outdoors, absorbing tale after tale of legend.

By the close, flickers of thrill danced across Kong Caichen's face.

He declared, "Brother Niu, Brother Hu, you've made the smart choice; that Ning Qi could one day dominate the whole Mountain and Sea Realm!"

The demonic beasts huddled nearby hung their jaws wide, nearly letting them hit the dirt.

Dominate the Mountain and Sea Realm? Wasn't that way over the top?

Unbeknownst to them, their two Ancestors offered no denial, their faces instead lighting up with anticipation, leaving the demonic beasts locked in deep, lasting awe.

...

Infinite Sword Sect.

The grand Teleportation Array abruptly surged with wild energy, bubbling like a pot on the boil.

This shift swiftly roused the Great Powers and True Inheritors guarding the Infinite Sword Sect, drawing them to cluster nearby.

Pop!

The void tore open as if ripped apart, brilliant lights flashing across the array, waves distorting the space, until at last, the five-colored Treasure Ship burst forth from the rift.

Ning Qi and his companions materialized atop the Treasure Ship.

"It's the Sect Leader!"

"The Sect Leader is back!"

The ones left guarding the place erupted in wild joy.

They too were catching sight of the Teleportation Array in action for the first time; watching Ning Qi and the rest step out safe and sound filled them with thrill and wonder.

Ning Qi and the group stepped off the Treasure Ship.

The Sword Ancestor shook his head, battling a wave of vertigo.

The various Great Powers and True Inheritors shared the sensation; despite varying cultivation levels, their responses mirrored each other closely.

This initial voyage through the void had left them somewhat woozy, but nothing worse.

The Sword Ancestor shot Ning Qi a stern look and grumbled:

"Ning, next time, why not test this bold new method on a few of us first before throwing everyone into it?"

"You sprang it right there in front of the Niu Mo Upper Sect's demonic beasts. We boarded to uphold the Sword Sect's pride, but a glitch halfway through would've spelled disaster."

His words sounded like a gripe, but his grin stretched nearly from ear to ear.

Ning Qi cast a sideways glance at the Sword Ancestor and shot back, "Testing it out would've burned through too many Spirit Stones. Or does the Sword Ancestor doubt me?"

The Sword Ancestor clapped his shoulder, "I trust you, I trust you. Still, you've stolen the whole show."

True Man Ziyang burst into laughter and chimed in, "Sword Ancestor, we're all good here, but those at Niu Mo Upper Sect must be shaking in their boots by now!"
