Chapter 539 Ethereal Key

In an unknown mountain peak in Beichuan Kingdom, Xie Cheng arrived in a hurry and entered a formation.

"Xie Cheng, why did you come back suddenly? You asked us to meet here. Could it be that something happened to your line?"

There was actually no decoration inside the formation. There were only two monks, a man and a woman, sitting on the ground.

Both of them have white hair, quite a bit of earthly aura, and the aura on their bodies is also that of Nascent Soul cultivators.

It's just that the male cultivator is already at the middle stage of Yuanying, while the female cultivator is at the early stage of Yuanying.

Seeing Xie Cheng suddenly arriving at this moment, the two of them had a look of worry on their faces.

"Master, Mistress, something has indeed happened."

Xie Cheng bowed deeply to the two of them, and then told what happened near Tingfeng City without waiting for them to continue asking questions.

"A strange young Nascent Soul monk comes to the rescue and then wants to see us?"

After listening to Xie Cheng's words, the old man and his wife looked at each other, with a solemn look on their faces.

"Brother, could this be a trick of the Xingyu Sect? In recent years, the Xingyu Sect has used all kinds of tricks to force the Yuanying monks of our sect to show up."

The old woman asked with a suspicious look on her face at this moment.

The white-haired old man also replied in a deep voice:

“It’s hard to say, but if that’s true, four Golden Core cultivators were sacrificed, and even a late Golden Core cultivator.

This Xingyu Sect is really willing to spend money. "

After speaking, the old man looked at Xie Cheng.

"By the way, didn't you just say that this person would bring us a jade slip? Let's take a look."

Xie Cheng immediately took out a jade slip and handed it to the old man, but his expression was a bit strange.

"Master, at that time, the senior placed a restriction on the jade slip. My disciple was worried whether the restriction could be located, so he checked it specifically.

Only then did I realize that the restrictions here were very similar to some of the inheritance restrictions of our Xuanling Sect.

It's just that the disciple is not cultivated enough to see the whole picture. "

"oh?"

When the old man heard this, he said "Oh" in surprise and quickly took the jade slip over.

Upon seeing this, a look of surprise suddenly flashed across his face.

"Junior sister, look at it, it really is our sect's restraint technique. Could it be that it was inherited from our sect's seniors as that fellow Taoist said?"

When the old woman heard this, she took the jade slip and checked it.

Seeing this, his face showed the same joy.

The old man took the jade slip back and immediately began to unlock the restrictions within the jade slip. When his consciousness scanned the jade slip, he stood up in shock.

"Ethereal Key! It's actually the Ethereal Key!"

The old man's exclamation made the old woman stand up immediately, and she took the jade slip in the old man's hand.

At this glance, there was a bit of trembling in his tone.

"It's really the ethereal key! Husband, is it possible that another ethereal key is in this person's hands?"

"It should be that this ethereal key has been missing since the disappearance of the sect's predecessor, Master Shen Meng, thousands of years ago.

It is almost impossible for outsiders to see it. It seems that this fellow Taoist has most likely received the inheritance from Master Shenmeng. "

The old man looked excited at this moment.

The excited reactions of the old man and the old woman also surprised Xie Cheng.

"Master, Master, what is this ethereal key that makes you so excited? Why haven't I heard of it?"

The old man took a deep breath and calmed down.

Then he said to Xie Cheng:

"It's normal that you don't know. Only Nascent Soul cultivators in the sect know about this thing.

But now that our sect is in great trouble, this ethereal key has a chance to return to our sect, so it doesn't hurt to tell you. "

As he spoke, the old man handed the jade slip to Xie Cheng and took out a black key-like object from his storage bag.

This jade key is almost exactly the same as what Chu Ning recorded in the jade slip.

Immediately, the old man said something to Xie Cheng, which made the latter's face suddenly show a look of surprise.

The three of them then began to discuss together again.

Huanyue City is a city of cultivation tens of thousands of miles away from Tingfeng City.

Unlike Tingfeng City, Tingfeng City is not within the specific sphere of influence of any sect.

And this Huanyue City is under the jurisdiction of Huanyue Sect.

However, Chu Ning, who has been in Beichuan for more than two months, also knows very well that most of the sects that can govern the city are also attached to the Lingyu Sect.

But relatively speaking, Xingyu Sect gave these sects more autonomy.

Therefore, there are many casual cultivators gathering in this city.

For nearly a month, Chu Ning stayed in the city under different identities.

Also look for the materials to refine the Beast Spirit Ring, Thunder Fire Staff and Black Turtle Shield.

After this search, I actually collected one of the inconspicuous refining materials for the Black Turtle Shield.

Although it is not the main material, it is still an unexpected surprise.

However, the identity of the Nascent Soul cultivator was still too obvious. After purchasing the relevant materials, Chu Ning left, and then stayed in the city as a Foundation Establishment cultivator again.

Seeing that the agreed time with Xie Cheng had arrived, Chu Ning walked towards Fangshi in the northeast.

Xie Ji Lingfang is not a big one among the Northeastern cities, but it is quite complete.

In fact, Chu Ning had been here before and found nothing unusual.

Now that he was inside, Chu Ning went straight to the shopkeeper.

"Is Xie Cheng here?"

After the shopkeeper heard this, he was secretly shocked. He looked at Chu Ning, who was currently building a foundation, hesitated for a moment, and asked with some respect:

"I don't know your surname, but there is no one like you mentioned in the shop."

Chu Ning didn't say much after hearing this. His consciousness spread directly and he soon found Xie Cheng who was staying in the backyard.

"Thank you, fellow Daoist, I'm here, let your people lead the way."

Xie Cheng, who was in the backyard, suddenly heard a message from his spiritual consciousness. He knew that Chu Ning was coming and immediately sent the message to the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper had a strange look on his face, and then he respectfully said to Chu Ning:

"Senior, please come with me."

Although he didn't know the identity of Chu Ning Yuanying cultivator, but being able to call the master by his name so directly meant that he wouldn't be just a foundation-building cultivator like him.

In the backyard, Xie Cheng just glanced at Chu Ning's eyes and confirmed Chu Ning's identity.

As for Chu Ning's unfamiliar face, he didn't have much doubts.

With the cultivation level of the Nascent Soul cultivator, it is normal for him to change his appearance and aura.

Even now, although his appearance has not changed, his aura has also converged to the foundation building stage.

Signaling the shopkeeper to leave, Xie Cheng immediately bowed and saluted Yang Ning.

"Xie Cheng has met Senior Chu!"

"You're welcome, let's just tell you the result." Chu Ning waved her hand at this moment.

Xie Cheng immediately responded:

"My sect's Yuanying monk is willing to meet with senior. I wonder when it will be convenient for senior?" Chu Ning felt relieved when he heard Xie Cheng's words.

"It's better to choose a different day than to hit the sun. Let's go now."

Hearing what Chu Ning said, Xie Cheng didn't say much, and left Huanyue City with Chu Ning.

Hundreds of miles after leaving the city, Chu Ning felt that Xie Cheng Heidun was too slow, so he released the leaf flying magic weapon.

Then under Xie Cheng's command, he took the other party and flew away into the distance.

After flying like this for several days, Chu Ning, under Xie Cheng's command, descended towards a mountaintop below.

This mountain is so tall that it stands at the top of the entire mountain range and is shrouded in clouds and mist.

However, with Chu Ning's eyesight, he could naturally tell at a glance that the clouds and mist at the top had the effect of the formation's blessing.

It should be used for isolation and investigation.

"The Yuanying monks from Xuanling Sect have arranged to meet here. It should be just a temporary place to stay. After all, the aura of this mountain is really average.

If the Nascent Soul cultivator practices in a place like this, he will probably spend more time and not be able to improve his cultivation. "

Just as Chu Ning was thinking like this, the clouds and mist dispersed in front, and two white-haired Nascent Soul cultivators, a man and a woman, came out.

His eyes fell directly on Chu Ning. The white-haired old man took the lead and said:

"This must be Fellow Daoist Chu. Master Xuanling Han Song and his concubine Fu Huiying have been waiting for you for a long time."

Immediately afterwards, the white-haired old woman Fu Huiying also bowed her hands and saluted.

"Chun Ning has met two fellow Taoists." Chu Ning immediately returned the gesture with his hand.

Shi Hansong looked at Chu Ning, and a strange look flashed across his face.

"I have long heard my disciple say that my Taoist friend is powerful, but it turns out that my Taoist friend is already in the middle stage of Nascent Soul.

Seeing that fellow Taoist is not very old, it is the first time for Shi to see such a young mid-Nascent Soul person. "

Just when Shi Hansong said this, Fu Huiying and Xie Cheng on the side also looked surprised.

Xie Cheng knew that Chu Ning was a Yuanying monk before, but seeing that he was really young, he subconsciously thought that he might be an early Yuanying monk.

Unexpectedly, he was already in the middle stage of Nascent Soul.

Chu Ning smiled when she heard Shi Hansong's words.

"My fellow Taoist master is ridiculous. My fellow Taoist master is only one step away from being a great monk in the late Nascent Soul stage. This is what Chu is really envious of."

If only Fu Huiying and Xie Cheng were surprised by Chu Ning's mid-stage Nascent Soul just now.

At this moment, Chu Ning's words shocked Shi Hansong.

"This person can actually see my cultivation level at a glance. He is indeed no ordinary monk."

While thinking this in his mind, Shi Hansong's face became more serious.

"My apprentice has already conveyed the intention of Fellow Daoist Chu, and the teacher has generally understood it.

However, this matter is of great importance. Although the formation here is not powerful, it does have some isolation effects.

I wonder if you are interested in joining the battle to discuss it in detail? "

Chu Ning raised his head and glanced at the many clouds and mists in front of him. With his knowledge, he had already had a vague overview when Shi Hansong and his two brothers came out just now.

I know that the most important thing about this formation is its isolation effect, and its attack power is not very powerful.

Of course, even if there is something in this formation, with Bai Ling and the extremely destructive means of Cloud Fire Lotus, Chu Ning is not too worried about being trapped.

So there was no hesitation at this moment and he agreed directly.

"Then let's join the battle and discuss it in detail."

With that said, Chu Ning actually took the lead to walk towards the clouds and mist after Shi Hansong made a gesture of invitation.

When Shi Hansong and his wife saw Chu Ning agreeing so readily, they couldn't help but look at each other.

"This person, facing two Nascent Soul cultivators like us and my wife, agreed to join the battle so decisively.

His courage and insight are truly extraordinary, and he must be something extraordinary if he develops magical powers. "

With this thought in his mind, Shi Hansong did not show the slightest expression on his face.

He led Chu Ning into the formation.

After entering the formation, Chu Ning took a look at the hilltop, which was no different from the original landform, and knew that his guess was good. This should be just a temporary place for the two of them to stay.

But the next moment, Shi Hansong took out a few things from his storage bag and threw them out.

There are many stone pavilions in the mountains, which are equipped with stone tables, tea sets, etc.

At this moment, Shi Hansong cupped his hands towards Chu Ning and said:

"Fellow Daoist Chu, this place is a little rough.

However, our sect was targeted by the Xingyu Sect, and the place of cultivation could not be easily exposed.

When things are urgent, follow the authority, and please don’t blame me, Taoist friends. "

"Teachers and fellow Taoists, don't worry about it. We practitioners will not be constrained by such small details.

Or should we go directly to the topic and resolve the doubts in both parties' minds? What do you think, master, Taoist, and friend? "

"Okay! Fellow Daoist Chu is really quick to talk." After Shi Hansong finished speaking, he directly asked:

"Fellow Daoist Chu, you asked your disciple to come back with a message, saying that the key to the ethereal spirit is in the hands of fellow Taoist disciple. I wonder if this is true or not?"

"It turns out that thing is called the Void Spirit Key."

Chu Ning murmured to herself, and without much concealment, she directly took out the black jade key that Master Shenmeng had brought back from the storage bag.

Even though they had already guessed it, when they saw this object, Shi Hansong and the other three couldn't help but feel a hint of joy flashing across their faces.

Chu Ning couldn't help but feel a little more curious at this moment, wondering what this so-called ethereal key was.

It actually made the other three lose their composure.

"Fellow Daoist Chu, I wonder if I can show Master this ethereal key in detail."

After hearing Shi Hansong's words, Chu Ning stretched out his hand and held the ethereal key directly in his hand.

At the same time he smiled lightly and said:

"Fellow Master, please forgive me for being presumptuous. In fact, from the beginning to the end, the identities of the so-called Xuanling Sect were only revealed from your mouths.

When Chu is entrusted by others, he should be more cautious. What do fellow teachers and Taoists think? "

"This is natural!" Shi Hansong nodded slightly and took out something from the storage bag.

Chu Ning looked around and saw that it was also an ethereal key.

To be precise, the shapes of the runes are exactly opposite to the one in my hand.

It looks like it should be another piece of a pair.

Seeing this, Chu Ning basically had no doubts about the identities of these people, but he did not directly hand over the ethereal key to them.

Instead, he reached out from the storage bag and took out the jade slip that Master Shenmeng had left with the ethereal key, and handed it to Shi Hansong.

"Fellow Taoist Master, why did this treasure of your sect fall into the hands of Mr. Chu?

Fellow Taoist, you will understand clearly if you look at the records of Guizong, Master Shenmeng. "

"It's really what the Master in Divine Dreams left behind!"

Shi Hansong said, taking the jade slip in Chu Yao's hand.

After checking it with his spiritual sense, Shi Hansong slowly handed the jade slip to Fu Huiying aside.

Then, he looked up at Chu Ning and said slowly:

"So Fellow Daoist Chu Ning came here not only to give away the Void Spirit Key, but also to obtain the True Spirit Secret from our sect?"
