How could Chi Meng care about healing his wounds at this time? He quickly connected the dots and understood where Ning Cheng had come from. At this moment, he couldn’t help but feel secretly hateful towards Ning Cheng. Since you are Ning Cheng, why didn’t you reveal your identity earlier? Who else is as famous as you, Ning Cheng, in the Five Grand Realms’ Void Market right now?

However, Chi Meng misunderstood Ning Cheng. Ning Cheng never thought that his reputation was this great. If he had known that disclosing his identity could have resolved this issue, he wouldn’t have let things escalate to this point.

“This fellow daoist came to my Myriad Realms Chamber of Commerce saying that we owed him ten million divine crystals. But he could not produce valid evidence and even injured one of my Myriad Realms Chamber of Commerce’s Dao Sculpting Holy Emperors. It was because of this that I fought with him. If Deacon Zhong hadn’t arrived in time, I’m afraid my life would have been cut short.” Chi Meng could only find reasons to stand his ground at this time. Since things had escalated to this point, it was no longer a matter of whose fist was stronger.

When Chi Meng spoke, neither Kong Lianbo nor Lu Dongze had any way to speak. If things were really like this, then the most they could do was to help Ning Cheng save his little life. However, it was clear to everyone here that the things presented weren’t as simple as it was said. If Ning Cheng weren’t an idiot, he wouldn’t be stupid enough to blackmail the Myriad Realms Chamber of Commerce. Sure, ten million divine crystals were a lot, but it wasn’t something a pill sage like Ning Cheng would feel worried about.

Seeing everyone looking at him, Ning Cheng threw a crystal ball.

Everyone instantly saw the contents of the crystal ball, from Chi Meng entering the Myriad Realms Chamber of Commerce to Ning Cheng giving Chi Meng a crystal ball as evidence, Chi Meng destroying the crystal ball and the conversation between the two. Everything was recorded and visible to everyone. Moreover, when Ning Cheng took the initiative to retreat, Chi Meng tried to stop him, demanding they hand over their ring and cripple themselves.

Asking cultivators to hand over their rings and cripple themselves would create an irreconcilable enmity at any time and place. What’s more, the reason why Ning Cheng acted was because Chi Meng was the one who attacked them first. Ning Cheng only fought back to defend himself. Judging from the crystal ball, everyone could see that Chi Meng was bullying them because of his power.

Seeing that Ning Cheng had even recorded this, Chi Meng’s face turned green. He finally understood why Ning Cheng had taken such a low stance before. Ning Cheng had done so to dig a pit for him. Fortunately, he wasn’t so brain-damaged to say that the Myriad Realms Chamber of Commerce deserved to beat him up; otherwise, his fate would be worse than death.

Seeing the video, Zhong Shiguang’s face also contorted in anger. He cupped his fists towards Ning Cheng and said, “This is my Myriad Realms Chamber of Commerce’s fault. Regardless of the evidence, I will pay for these ten million divine crystals on behalf of the Myriad Realms Chamber of Commerce.”

Ning Cheng didn’t respond and threw out another crystal ball instead. This crystal ball contained the video of Xixi paying the divine crystals as collateral. Ning Cheng wouldn’t be so foolish as to not back up his evidence before handing it over to his opponent.

Once everyone saw the second crystal ball, Ning Cheng finally spoke coldly, “I’m not so shameless as a certain Chamber of Commerce as to blackmail them for a mere ten million divine crystals. Whether or not the Myriad Realms Chamber of Commerce is a big business, taking part in such a deal is quite hard to believe.”

Zhong Shiguang felt his anger and irritation rising, this time not because of Chi Meng but because of Ning Cheng. Unfortunately, in the face of so many powerful people, he simply could not dare to do anything to Ning Cheng.

“Our Myriad Realms Chamber of Commerce will compensate you with fifty million divine crystals.” Zhong Shiguang said coldly. After saying that, he immediately threw out a ring to Ning Cheng.

He understood that the reputation of his Myriad Realms Chamber of Commerce had been completely ruined. In the past, even if the Myriad Realms Chamber of Commerce forcibly took anyone’s divine crystals, no one would dare to speak out in front of the public like Ning Cheng.

Ning Cheng grabbed the ring but only took ten million divine crystals from inside and threw the rest back to Zhi Shiguang along with the ring. “We only need our divine crystals; the rest are not worth our attention.”

Ning Cheng put the ten million divine crystals in a separate ring and handed it to Xixi, who stood beside him in complete surprise. “Those are your divine crystals. You should put it away.”

Zhong Shiguang quietly put away the ring while his expression turned even uglier. Ning Cheng’s words meant that the rest were ill-gotten gains, even if he received more divine crystals from the Myriad Realms Chamber of Commerce.

Knowing that Ning Cheng was deliberately trying to drag his Myriad Realms Chamber of Commerce through mud, he still couldn’t refute it.

“Since this matter is settled, I will not keep Alchemist Ning from other things.” Although Zhong Shiguang buried his anger, his tone only grew colder.

Just then, Ning Cheng suddenly received a voice transmission from Kong Lianbo, “The Myriad Realms Chamber of Commerce deals in all kinds of teleportation quotas. But if Pill Sage Ning’s friends want to enter the Grand Change Realm, you don’t need to look for the Myriad Realms Chamber of Commerce. They can come to the Grand Change Realm with us in three days.” 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝑒𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝒸𝑜𝘮fre enovelkiss.com

It was truly a case of nodding off and then getting a pillow. Kong Lianbo had provided him with a solution just in time. Ning Cheng admired Kong Lianbo’s keen observation and judgement and quickly thanked him.

As the crowd dispersed, Ning Cheng cupped his fists to Lu Dongze again and said, “I wanted to come and discuss a few things with Union Master Lu but ended up meeting an old friend midway.”

Lu Dongze waved his hand, “Fellow Daoist Ning can come and find me anytime. I’ve been discussing the Dao of Alchemy with Union Master Sichen at my residence these past few days and have gained a lot.”

Lu Dongze’s attainments in alchemy were already a few notches higher than that of Sichen Qiutian. So, for Lu Dongze to say this was to give face to Sichen Qiutian.

……

As soon as Ning Cheng brought Xixi back to the inn, Xixi bowed to Ning Cheng, “Elder Brother Ning, if you hadn’t intervened, I couldn’t have retrieved those ten million divine crystals by myself.”

After asking Xixi to sit down, Ning Cheng immediately asked, “There is no need to say all this. Pan Qian and I are friends, so it’s only natural for me to lend a hand. Tell me, what happened to Xi’er? I heard from Pan Qian that Xi’er had died long ago.”

Xixi’s eyes turned red, “It’s been ten thousand years since big brother Pan Qian left the Grand Change Realm. It was because Pan Qian belonged to the Giant Clan and possessed the bloodline of the Ancient Giants. Once news about the Ancient bloodline leaked, countless people coveted it and desired to inherit the bloodline of the Ancient Giants. As for big brother Pan Qian, he had the purest and most complete Ancient Giant bloodline among my Giant Clan.”

Ning Cheng had long since ceased to be the ignorant person he had been back then. Regardless of the specific type, ancient bloodlines were supreme treasures regardless of the place and age and could provide the inheritor with extreme perceptive abilities and cultivation capabilities. Those inheriting an ancient bloodline would eventually become unmatched in cultivation, body refinement, and even comprehension of divine abilities.

Pan Qian’s Ancient Giant bloodline had attracted envy from others.

“Back then, to protect Pan Qian, my Giant Clan sacrificed everything to preserve the purest bloodline inheritance and repel the invaders. Unfortunately, the Giant Clan was still too weak and ended up annihilated. Fortunately, Sister Xi’er saved Pan Qian and me, and we have followed her ever since. But one day, Sister Xi’er said she would reincarnate and asked Big Brother Pan Qian to leave the Grand Change Realm. She told him to return only when he reached the stage of transforming into a ten-thousand-zhang[1] giant and see if he could find her reincarnation…….”

“Ten thousand zhang?” Ning Cheng asked in amazement. Pan Qian was only ten zhang high back then. That in itself was the largest physical body Ning Cheng had seen. If Pan Qian reached ten thousand zhang, how big would he become?

Xixi quickly explained, “Pan Qian’s cultivation method is something he had awakened himself. When he reaches the stage of ten thousand zhang, it doesn’t mean that he grows to ten thousand zhang. It means he would manifest a true body of ten thousand zhang during the condensation of his Ancient Giant’s dao rhythm. With a true body of ten thousand zhang, he could even go against a Dao Fusion powerhouse. Back when he hadn’t awakened the Ancient Giant’s dao rhythm, Big Brother Pan Qian was only about one zhang tall.”

Pan Qian was only a few zhang tall when he first met Ning Cheng. From the looks of it, Pan Qian’s strength had taken a severe plunge, preventing him from gathering his Ancient Giant bloodline’s dao rhythm. Pan Qian probably didn’t want to worry Ning Cheng, so he didn’t mention it.

After understanding this, Ning Cheng felt even more worried about Pan Qian. In Pan Qian’s condition, returning to the Grand Change Realm would be nothing more than suicide. However, Ning Cheng believed that Pan Qian wouldn’t be so stupid. After experiencing so many hardships, he should know what to do. Besides, Pan Qian still had Shen Mengyan by his side, who should be able to persuade Pan Qian.

“After sending Big Brother Pan Qian away, Sister Xi’er also sent me away. She said she was going to disperse her physical body in the place where she had started her cultivation journey and then reincarnate. She didn’t want anyone to disturb her. I thought it was true because once Sister Xi’er’s cultivation method peaked, going through reincarnation was a necessity………”

As Xixi said this, she lowered her head and sobbed. Ning Cheng’s unease grew stronger. From what he understood of this world, Xi’er wouldn’t reincarnate. Rather, she deliberately lied to Xixi and Pan Qian.

Sure enough, Xixi continued, “After leaving Sister Xi’er, I became a rogue cultivator. Ten thousand years ago, I teamed up with a few people to explore the Grand Change Realm’s Underground Abyss. During one of those explorations in the depths of the abyss, I vaguely saw Sister Xu’er’s figure. She was nailed to a thick blood pillar, suppressing something as a pure body seal.”

“However, my strength was too limited, and the figure was blurry. Before I could get close enough, I was swept away by the nether winds. When I tried to return, I could no longer find that place. I tried everything, but no matter the method, I couldn’t locate Sister Xi’er.”

“I didn’t know any of the powerhouses in the Grand Change Realm, and even if I did, I wouldn’t dare to ask for help. The only person I could turn to was Big Brother Pan Qian. However, I ended up stranded in the Five Grand Realms’ Void Market, unable to advance or retreat. Moreover, in all these years, my cultivation regressed instead of advancing, retreating from the Dao Raising Realm to the Dao Sculpting Realm. Perhaps I will never know what the Dao is again in a few more years.”

“Are you sure that it was Xi’er?” Ning Cheng’s tone turned somewhat cold. Xi’er influenced Pan Qian’s kindness. From this, he could tell what kind of a person Xi’er was. Yet, such a person was used as a pure body seal to suppress something tainted. How could someone endure such a thing?

Ning Cheng naturally had a good idea about the pure body seal and its purpose. That is, to use the purest body and a flawless essence spirit to suppress and seal away things that couldn’t bear the light. When he saw the statue of Anyi, it was also a form of a pure body seal. Therefore, after seeing Anyi’s statue, he didn’t hesitate to take it away.

Xixi cried and nodded, “I’m sure I didn’t see it wrong. Even if it was just a blurry glance, I’m sure it was Sister Xi’er.”

“Since it’s a pure body seal, Xi’er wouldn’t die anytime soon. We will figure out what to do when we get to the Grand Change Realm. When that time comes, you take me to the Underground Abyss.” Ning Cheng quickly calmed down. The person who nailed Xi’er to the Underground Abyss to suppress whatever unclean thing was there wouldn’t be simple. This matter was different from the matter of the Myriad Realms Chamber of Commerce. He had to be cautious even if he wanted to save someone.
