Chapter 316

"Meng Chong battles Zhou Nongying, and in the end, Meng Chong actually won?!" Shuzhong Jun stomped his feet, dazed for a moment; he only then reacted.

In this Turning Mechanism Secret Pavilion, these Jin Dan stage cultivators were severely suppressed and only had the combat power of the Qi Refining stage.

Moreover, they could not use their own treasures and could only cast spells.

In this situation, Meng Chong, who possessed Immortal Talent, actually occupied the advantage.

"Perhaps, he also collected quite a few mechanism props." Shuzhong Jun couldn't help but think of a huge door he had encountered before.

He did not know the "Demonic Blood-Tendon Art," so he could only sigh at the treasure door in vain.

……

"Zhou Nongying, a dignified Jin Dan, was actually eliminated by a Qi Refining junior. Hmph!" Zheng Danlian's heart became increasingly irritable.

Zheng Shuanggou hurried on his way; Zhou Nongying's defeat made him want to meet up with his companions even more.

……

Meng family Jin Dan cultivator A was overjoyed: "Good! Lord Meng Kui has eyes like torches; no wonder he has been supporting Meng Chong all along."

"Is this the power of someone who possesses Immortal Talent?"

"Eliminating a Jin Dan cultivator at the Qi Refining stage; if I had such a battle record, I could brag about it for a lifetime."

After the joy, Meng family cultivator A also had many worries.

Although Meng Chong eliminated Zhou Nongying, he must have paid a not-so-small price.

After such a fierce battle, Meng Chong's state must have declined and he must be relatively weak.

"At such a critical moment, Young Master Meng Chong must not run into other cultivators! I must find him quickly and protect him."

The Meng family cultivator was very impatient.

……

Ning Jiufan was alone, shuttling through the secret pavilion.

He opened the door and walked into the next secret pavilion.

Sun Lingtong's figure slowly emerged.

Like Ning Jiufan, he was looking for Ning Zhuo to meet up.

"Must find Little Zhuo as soon as possible!"

"Without me covering for him, it's hard for him to make a move. If a battle really breaks out, that would be terrible."

This was because Sun Lingtong was using the name "Ning Zhuo," while Ning Zhuo corresponded to "Entrance Standard." If a battle produced a result, no matter if Ning Zhuo won or lost, there would be a notification, allowing everyone to know instantly.

This constituted a huge flaw!

Sun Lingtong tried his best to avoid this flaw.

……

Ning Zhuo pushed the door open and stepped into the next secret pavilion.

His pupils shrank slightly; he saw a messy battlefield in the secret pavilion, and then he saw a cultivator.

The cultivator's battle had already entered its final stages.

His opponent was only the last mechanism python.

This python was coiled around the pedestal, guarding the treasure of this secret pavilion.

The movement of Ning Zhuo pushing the door and entering immediately attracted the side-glance of this cultivator.

Ning Zhuo's heart sank slightly, and after a light laugh, he took the initiative to greet him, being polite and courteous.

He had run into the Purple Firmament Pavilion Jin Dan true disciple.

Out of so many people, the first one Ning Zhuo ran into happened to be the one he was least familiar with.

Ning Zhuo's gaze immediately stopped on the pedestal again.

His heart couldn't help but move slightly.

A large pile of spirit stones was placed on the pedestal. The quality of the spirit stones was good; most were middle-grade spirit stones, and a small portion were high-grade.

He subconsciously calculated that if he could have this pile of spirit stones, it would be extremely helpful for controlling various mechanism creations and for the recovery of his own magic power!

Using spirit stones to drive various mechanisms is the right path.

Like before, Ning Zhuo used essence blood to corrupt mechanisms, and controlling them consumed a lot of his own blood energy.

Using spirit stones would best reduce his consumption.

The Purple Firmament Pavilion Jin Dan cultivator narrowed his eyes and stopped temporarily, not dealing with the last mechanism python anymore.

He held a mechanism short spear in each hand, and at this moment, he slowly turned around; in the process of facing Ning Zhuo, he combined the short spears together to form a mechanism long spear that was taller than him.

He planted the long spear on the ground and raised his head slightly: "Junior Ning Zhuo, I am just lacking an artifact to load these spoils."

"Leave this floating wooden box, and you can go."

Ning Zhuo couldn't help but be stunned, then laughed lightly: "Is it enough to just want this box?"

"Senior, you might as well take a look at these."

As he spoke, he reached out and patted the Small Flying Box lightly.

From the Small Flying Box, he took out puppet after puppet, spell puppets.

A few breaths later, more than a dozen mechanism creations were released, crowding around Ning Zhuo.

Not only puppets, but also some beast-type mechanisms. Ning Zhuo's two hands were holding a mechanism shield and a mechanism crossbow.

This was too exaggerated!

The Purple Firmament Pavilion Jin Dan true disciple looked at the huge lineup opposite him, and then looked at the mechanism long spear in his own hand; the latter was his only weapon.

Bang.

With a muffled sound, Ning Zhuo took out a mechanism cannon again.

The Purple Firmament Pavilion Jin Dan true disciple's eye corners twitched.

"Are these all mechanism props you obtained? Or did you bring them out from the trial room?" The Purple Firmament Pavilion Jin Dan true disciple couldn't help but ask, his voice becoming hoarse.

Ning Zhuo smiled slightly and spread his hands: "Senior, is that important?"

"You have been fighting for so long, and you are tired too."

"This junior won't see you off; you can pick any door here, please leave."

As he spoke, Ning Zhuo gestured.

The Purple Firmament Pavilion Jin Dan true disciple's face changed between green and white, staring fixedly at Ning Zhuo.

Ning Zhuo's smile faded a little, and his gaze became cold: "Please."

"Good, good, good!" The Purple Firmament Pavilion Jin Dan true disciple nodded repeatedly, his anger hard to calm, but in the end, he held the mechanism long spear and took the initiative to leave the Turning Mechanism Secret Pavilion.

Before leaving, he slammed the door shut.

Ning Zhuo breathed a sigh of relief.

He had to appear strong.

On one hand, it was for the spirit stones, and on the other hand, it was to avoid battle.

He was very inconvenient right now; only after meeting up with Sun Lingtong would he avoid the flaw of the palace examination notification.

"Still try my best to collect props and constantly accumulate my own advantages."

"Letting others go fight first and consume each other is what is most favorable to me."

Ning Zhuo waved his hand, and the mechanism creations were like a wave, directly submerging the Qi Refining stage mechanism python.

He put away the spirit stones and controlled the mechanism puppets to quickly clean up the battlefield.

Soon, he had packed up enough and decisively moved away.

Suffocating.

Too suffocating!

At this moment, the Purple Firmament Pavilion Jin Dan true disciple's heart was filled with anger.

How long had it been since he had been treated like this? Especially since the other party was only a Qi Refining stage cultivator.

"Even if I am suppressed to the Qi Refining stage, in a one-on-one fight, I could still suppress Ning Zhuo to death."

"The key is that the three sects' superiors' favoritism and care for the trial disciples are too heavy."

"This is very unfair!"

Thinking that he only had one mechanism long spear, while Ning Zhuo had a team of mechanism creations in his hands, the Purple Firmament Pavilion Jin Dan cultivator couldn't hold it together.

The Purple Firmament Pavilion Jin Dan was confident: if he were outside the Turning Mechanism Secret Pavilion, to deal with Ning Zhuo, he would only need to move his finger slightly to make the latter cry for his father and mother.

It just happened that in this Turning Mechanism Secret Pavilion, his strength was greatly suppressed.

He secretly noted this grudge, swearing that if there was a chance in the future, he would definitely get his own back.

Just as he was thinking, the door on his left was pushed open, and two cultivators walked in.

The Purple Firmament Pavilion Jin Dan cultivator immediately became alert, his gaze shooting over, and he saw Shuzhong Jun and Song Fuli.

"It's you two?" The Purple Firmament Pavilion Jin Dan relaxed slightly.

Shuzhong Jun and Song Fuli were overjoyed to see him: "We were just looking for you."

Shuzhong Jun immediately began to analyze the situation and wanted to propose the intention of joining forces.

"You want to join forces with me? I agree!" The Purple Firmament Pavilion Jin Dan heard the implication and immediately nodded in agreement.

Such a straightforward attitude made Shuzhong Jun feel very favorable, thinking that the other party was a sensible person.

The Purple Firmament Pavilion Jin Dan continued: "Listen to me, I just met Ning Zhuo and didn't make a move on him."

"Now, the three of us join forces to eliminate this kid first!"

"The force on Zhu Xuanji's side is too powerful; if Ning Zhuo meets up with others, we will have no chance to make a move."

Shuzhong Jun immediately expressed his agreement and turned to ask for Song Fuli's opinion.

Song Fuli shrugged, indicating that he wanted to settle accounts with the people from the Non-Empty Gate more. However, since Ning Zhuo was discovered first, it could only be considered his bad luck, and eliminating him first was not bad either.

Thus, after the three Jin Dan cultivators concluded a simple covenant, they acted together.

The Purple Firmament Pavilion Jin Dan cultivator took the lead and hurried back along the original path.

At the peak of Fire Persimmon Mountain, deep in the clouds and smoke.

Meng Kui overlooked the entire volcanic crater.

Red Flame Monster Beasts emerged one after another, surrounding the isolated island of the Lava Immortal Palace, vowing not to stop until it was demolished.

Meng Kui was calm.

Meng Hu was eager to try and couldn't help but ask: "Brother, where is that Grand Clarity Palace Nascent Soul hiding? Have you detected it? Why don't I just go find him and fight him?"

"No." Meng Kui shook his head, "We must wait for the other party to show up and make a move first before we can grasp the handle and let you appear publicly."

"Otherwise, if you are the first to pop up and take the initiative to attack, you will definitely be fiercely impeached by the court officials, accusing you of disregarding the rules, being lawless, and moving about at will."

Cultivators gather great power in themselves.

A Nascent Soul level like Meng Hu can attack cities and seize land alone, one person like ten thousand troops.

Any country deploying troops will be extremely cautious. In a cultivation country, deploying Nascent Soul level and above cultivators is also this attitude.

Meng Hu suddenly running from one place to another without any reporting action is like an army suddenly abandoning its post and running to another place.

This kind of conduct is undoubtedly making the superiors extremely uneasy, and they will definitely suppress and resist the occurrence of such things with all their might.

Especially in the Nandou Kingdom, where the ruler is weak and the ministers are strong, Meng Kui knew very well: if Meng Hu acted so brazenly, he would definitely provoke the fragile and sensitive nerves of the royal house, and it is very likely to produce an overreaction and impose heavy suppression on the Meng family.

The excuse of monster beasts attacking the city is also not applicable to Meng Hu.

Because according to the normal process, after Meng Kui knew he couldn't handle it, he should report it upward, and the monarch and the court would discuss it and then send reinforcements.

This kind of action of privately bringing his own Nascent Soul over is a great violation of court rules and is very undesirable. Once done, it will definitely give people something to talk about and be concentratedly attacked by countless people.

The only excuse that can be brought out is that Meng Hu accidentally discovered that the Grand Clarity Palace had a Nascent Soul cultivator passing through, sneaking around. Meng Hu was worried that the other party had some conspiracy, so he followed all the way and finally arrived at the Fire Persimmon Immortal City.
