Cultivating with Top Enlightenment Chapter 777 - 326: The Greatest Harvest (Part 4)
Previously on Cultivating with Top Enlightenment...
His eyes silently scanned Sikong Lan and his companions below, a notion flickering through his thoughts.
Forget it, letting proxies handle the slaughter is preferable.
The forces from the Profound Truth Realm, Fuyao Realm, and Langya Domain all followed his directives. Although this spot stayed free from the influence of the two realms' wills, should they slay Sikong Lan and the rest, traces would undoubtedly remain.
In the end, the armies of Fuyao Realm and Langya Domain weren't as fully aligned with him as the Profound Truth Realm's troops.
Once Ning Qi grasped this, he refrained from targeting Kuang Shanqing in the same manner as Qianying.
He moved covertly, unleashing yet another Divine Technique in a flash.
"Space Shifting!"
Kuang Shanqing hovered in the void, steadfastly awaiting Ning Qi's emergence.
By chance, he looked downward, and shock jolted him abruptly!
Where had Qi Keqing vanished to?
Not just that, Kuang Shanqing then observed the troops under Qi Keqing's command disappear from view instantly, including the Node Pearl focused at this junction!
"Has Ning Qi arrived?"
Kuang Shanqing rose to his feet, his deployed Spiritual Sense growing far more intricate, but still he detected nothing!
He refused to accept such an outcome.
At once, he sent a message to Qianying's concealed position: "Brother Qianying, Ning Qi is present!"
Yet no reply came!
"Brother Qianying?"
After multiple attempts to reach out, Kuang Shanqing failed to connect with Qianying, filling him with utter dread.
Down below, Sikong Lan and his allies also spotted the irregularity, causing the group to stir in unrest.
Sikong Lan lifted his gaze, ready to shout to his senior brother, but abruptly he lost his voice, silenced completely.
He tried to send a transmission, only to discover his Spiritual Sense utterly blocked. A cold shiver raced up Sikong Lan’s back, as if haunted by some spectral force.
Ning Qi materialized facing Kuang Shanqing, clutching the Node Pearl.
He stated coolly, "You have to be Kuang Shanqing. No point in probing further; I've dealt with Qianying, and relocated Qi Keqing and the rest elsewhere!"
Upon witnessing a youth in white robes step out from the emptiness, Kuang Shanqing's eyes bulged, as he struggled to quell his mounting fear, "Are you Ning Qi?"
Ning Qi replied, "It seems Sikong Lan spilled all the details to you!"
Below, Sikong Lan and the others caught sight of Ning Qi's arrival, each one shaking with uncontrollable fear.
It’s done for; they were doomed!
They failed to comprehend how Ning Qi had grown so formidable?
Clearly, he had earlier commanded the army personally, clashing with the Vermilion Bird Immortal Sect members.
In merely this brief span, Ning Qi managed to whisk away Qi Keqing and his forces right under the watchful eye of Divine Wind Domain Master Kuang Shanqing, abandoning only them here!
Ning Qi even declared he had handled Hundred Beasts Realm Domain Master Qianying; they struggled to fathom how he pulled it off.
Sikong Lan and Sima Fei displayed utter hopelessness. Now stripped of any usefulness, only annihilation loomed for them.
Their sole wish rested on Kuang Shanqing managing to hold off Ning Qi briefly, in hopes that if the binding pressure lifted, they could attempt flight.
As these thoughts swirled, Sikong Lan abruptly heard the duo overhead resume their exchange.
Kuang Shanqing remained skeptical, "Did you truly slay Brother Qianying?"
Qianying’s hiding method was so profound that even he couldn't pierce it. Without prior knowledge of Qianying’s spot, locating him would prove impossible.
But Ning Qi had neutralized Qianying ahead, the impact of which was staggering.
Ning Qi responded, "'Kill' isn't the precise word; I spared him a single breath."
He glanced indifferently at Sikong Lan underneath, pressing on, "You're probably curious how I knew your exact numbers, or even that Qianying lurked close by?"
Kuang Shanqing was indeed eager to unravel this mystery.
After all, by the time Qi Keqing and his group showed up, Qianying had already concealed himself nearby, without ever showing his face.
The only witnesses to Qianying had been Sikong Lan and his companions.
Ning Qi chuckled, "I owe this to Sikong Lan. He feigned submission to you, feeding you misleading intel on me, but covertly relayed all the truths to me, since I bestowed upon him a Magical Treasure!"
