Chapter 133

However, just as Ning Chuan was preparing to continue his closed-door cultivation and push his cultivation to a higher realm in one go.

A request for help, written by Dai Dai Qisi herself and delivered urgently, suddenly arrived from the Ming Cult at Brightness Peak!

My Lord, requesting support!

Dai Dai Qisi’s request for help was delivered to Ning Chuan at the fastest speed through Taohuadao’s unique secret channels.

The content of the letter was not complicated, but between the lines, it was filled with anxiety and helplessness.

It turned out that after Dai Dai Qisi returned to the Ming Cult in the Central Plains.

Relying on her formidable strength at the Grandmaster level and some thunderous methods.

Plus the fact that Ning Chuan had previously sent Xiao Xiao Yuanshan to secretly assist her in eliminating some stubborn opposition forces.

She quickly gained a firm foothold at Brightness Peak and successfully suppressed the factions within the cult that harbored different intentions.

At one point, she was almost about to completely control the entire Ming Cult in the Central Plains, integrating it into a powerful force for Ning Chuan to use.

However, good times did not last long.

Just a few days ago, Xiao Feng, who had been ordered by Ning Chuan to come to the Ming Cult in the Central Plains to assist Dai Dai Qisi, also arrived smoothly at Brightness Peak.

Xiao Feng’s arrival undoubtedly added a great boost to Dai Dai Qisi.

His heroic spirit of being upright and open, as well as his formidable strength at the Grandmaster level.

Quickly won the respect and support of some upright people within the Ming Cult.

With the two of them joining forces, the situation at Brightness Peak had already gradually stabilized.

But, just at this time, the martial arts world was suddenly set into an uproar again because of the appearance of a divine weapon!

A young man named Zhang Zhang Wuji, who claimed to be a Wudang disciple, arrived at Brightness Peak holding the Dragon-Slaying Saber, which symbolized "Supreme in the Martial Arts World, the Dragon-Slaying Saber"!

According to him, he was the foster son of the Golden-Haired Lion King Xie Xun.

Before Xie Xun died, he entrusted this Dragon-Slaying Saber to him, telling him to be sure to send it back to the Ming Cult and hand it over to the Cult Leader for disposal.

However, the appearance of the Dragon-Slaying Saber was like throwing a giant rock into a calm lake.

It instantly broke the calm situation that Brightness Peak had managed to maintain with such difficulty!

"If the Heaven-Reliant Sword does not appear, who can compete? The Dragon-Slaying Saber commands the world, and none dare disobey!"

This prophecy, which had circulated in the martial arts world for hundreds of years, was already deeply rooted in people’s hearts.

The appearance of the Dragon-Slaying Saber not only caused undercurrents within the Ming Cult again, making people restless.

It also attracted the covetousness and greed of countless sects and forces in the martial arts world!

It seemed that behind all this, there was an invisible black hand secretly fueling the flames.

Pushing the entire Ming Cult in the Central Plains and Brightness Peak to the forefront of the storm!

Now, major righteous sects, such as Wudang, Emei, the Beggar Sect, and some powerful hidden forces, such as the Yihua Palace, the Divine Sword Villa, etc.

Were actually all using the banner of "eliminating demons and defending the Dao" and "reclaiming the Dragon-Slaying Saber."

Joining forces to prepare to besiege Brightness Peak!

They had the posture of wanting to wipe out the entire Ming Cult in one fell swoop and divide up its hundreds of years of accumulation!

Even, Dai Dai Qisi had secretly investigated and found out.

Behind this conspiracy against Brightness Peak, there seemed to be even more powerful, terrifying experts beyond the Grandmaster level, secretly laying out plans and manipulating things!

Facing such a crisis, even with Dai Dai Qisi and Xiao Feng joining forces, they felt they were struggling to cope alone.

Helpless, she had to send an urgent request for help to Ning Chuan, who was far away on Taohuadao in the East Sea!

Ning Chuan finished reading Dai Dai Qisi’s letter, and a cold, icy light flashed in his pale-gold dragon pupils.

"Dragon-Slaying Saber? Hmph! A mere piece of mortal iron, and it dares to claim to command the world?"

Although he was disdainful of this so-called "Supreme in the Martial Arts World."

He also understood that in the eyes of those mortals, this saber indeed had an irresistible temptation.

"This time, without that demoness Zhao Min fueling the flames behind the scenes, who is playing tricks in the dark?"

"Could it be... the Iron-Clad Divine Marquis Zhu Zhu Wushi of the Dragon-Protecting Villa?"

Ning Chuan pondered to himself.

He knew that Zhu Zhu Wushi was a man of wolfish ambition, deep in his schemes, and had always coveted the Great Ming throne.

If he could stir up the Central Plains martial arts world and give himself an opportunity, it would fit his style of doing things.

"Experts beyond Grandmaster... Land Immortals?"

"Hehe, this seat is indeed somewhat interested in that so-called Land Immortal Jin Dan."

A strange arc curled at the corners of Ning Chuan’s mouth.

Although his current cultivation had not yet truly reached the realm of a Land Immortal.

But his strength was nothing to fear.

But if he could devour and refine a Land Immortal’s Jin Dan, the massive energy and understanding of heaven and earth laws contained within.

It would definitely help his [Nine Tribulations Dragon Transformation Method] improve much further!

"It seems that this seat must personally take a trip to Brightness Peak."

Ning Chuan made his decision.

With his current strength and numerous mysterious and unpredictable methods.

Even facing a true Land Immortal, he had enough confidence to fight one, or even... suppress it!

He wanted to see exactly who was stirring up trouble behind the scenes, attempting to challenge the majesty of him, the Dragon Island Master of Taohuadao!

He called over Huang Rong, who was playing and laughing with Wang Wang Yuyan in the small courtyard, researching newly acquired martial arts.

"Rong'er, this seat needs to go out for a trip to handle some matters."

"I will return in a few days at the shortest, or a month at the longest."

"During the time I am away, all affairs of Taohuadao will be temporarily managed by you and Xiao Xiao Yuanshan together."

"Take good care of the home and don’t let those petty people have any opportunity."

Ning Chuan instructed Huang Rong in a gentle tone.

Huang Rong, hearing this, although filled with reluctance and worry in her heart, also knew that Brother Chuan must have important matters to attend to.

She nodded obediently, stepped forward to gently hug Ning Chuan’s cold yet solid dragon body, and whispered:

"Brother Chuan, you must be careful! Come back early! Rong'er will be good and wait for you on the island!"

Her large, bright eyes were filled with attachment and concern.

Ning Chuan gently rubbed Huang Rong’s cheek with his huge dragon head to comfort her.

Immediately, with a thought, he forced a trace of pure demonic power containing his original aura out of his dragon pill.

That trace of demonic power turned into a tiny black dragon-shaped mark and silently merged into the center of Huang Rong’s eyebrows.

"This is a trace of my original demonic power mark, which can keep you safe three times."

"If you encounter danger that you cannot resist, activate it, and I will naturally sense it."

Although he had confidence in Taohuadao’s defense, he was also afraid of any accidents.

Leaving this mark could be considered an extra layer of protection.

Afterward, he used divine sense transmission to instruct the giant turtle Gui Xuan, who was "patrolling" the waters near Taohuadao.

Telling it to guard Taohuadao well during the time he was away.

If it really encountered a powerful enemy that even Xiao Xiao Yuanshan and Zhou Zhou Botong could not resist, it should immediately take Huang Rong, Wang Wang Yuyan, and the core disciples of the island and escape into the deep sea, waiting for his return.

With Gui Xuan’s strength comparable to the peak of a Grandmaster and its elusive speed in the water.

Even if it encountered some weaker Land Immortals, it would not be difficult to take everyone and escape safely.

After making all these arrangements, Ning Chuan felt slightly relieved.

"Perhaps... after the Brightness Peak matter is over, I should continue to delve deeper into the study of spiritual arrays."

"If I could set up a true top-tier killing or trapping array on Taohuadao that combines offense and defense."

"Then even if I go on a long trip in the future, I won’t have to worry so much."

Ning Chuan pondered to himself.

He no longer hesitated, and his massive dragon body soared into the sky!

Amidst a heaven-shaking dragon roar, he turned into a black streak of light, tearing through the sky!

Flying rapidly toward the distant Central Plains continent, in the direction of Brightness Peak!

His speed was simply inconceivable, several times faster than the legendary sword flight!
