Chapter 776: Chapter 326: The Greatest Harvest (Part 3)

While shifting positions, Ning Qi contemplated his strategy.

It would be easy to deal with the two, but the key was to prevent them from accidentally harming Qi Keqing and the others. Ideally, he could also eliminate Sikong Lan and the rest—that would be perfect.

In a blink, Ning Qi had shifted to a location three kilometers from Kuang Shanqing.

Suddenly, he sensed something was amiss.

”Why is there no Mountain and Sea Realm energy or Vast Realm energy here?”

He hadn’t noticed this earlier, but now that he had, Ning Qi immediately stopped, his face revealing a peculiar smile.

”Well, well, Qi Keqing deserves credit. If it weren’t for her capture, how could I have discovered a place within the war realm where the two realms’ intents are absent?”

Ning Qi’s eyes flickered with joy, even more delighted than before.

He could say that discovering this place was the greatest reward of entering the war realm!

Ning Qi had been searching for a location where the two realms’ intents couldn’t be sensed, allowing him to slice space and merge it with the True Martial Realm, accelerating its growth.

This place was exactly that, and he had finally found it!

Ning Qi suppressed his excitement; everything must wait until after he had dealt with the two Domain Masters before he could slowly investigate.

His gaze fell upon the node at the center of this location, instantly coming up with a strategy.

These two were like Qi Baishou before, not capturing the node but wanting to use it to lure him with the Compass.

Well then...

Ning Qi gave a slight smile and shifted again, now within a hundred meters of Kuang Shanqing.

Neither Kuang Shanqing nor the hidden old schemer noticed his presence.

Ning Qi concealed himself, furtively appearing behind Hundred Beasts Domain Master Qianying.

Gazing at the old schemer sprawled on the ground, still looking ahead, Ning Qi silently cast a spell: ”Dimensional Space!”

Instantly, the space where he stood completely isolated from the original, yet he could still view the outside world.

It was a Divine Technique Ning Qi invented after mastering the Power of Space Rule.

Qianying ahead slightly frowned.

Qi Baishou, whom Ning Qi had killed, was his disciple. Qi Baishou mastered the Hundred Beasts, while Qianying condensed a Thousand Beast Shadows!

Qianying’s perception ability was extremely strong, having learned various abilities from the thousand beasts. Whether it’s his stealth ability or perception ability, among the Vast Realm’s vast expanse, few could rival him.

Ning Qi pushed his stealth ability to the extreme, trying his best not to cause spatial fluctuations, yet Qianying still sensed a trace of danger.

He glanced upward, seeing Kuang Shanqing still sitting cross-legged in the void, and numerous Fuyao Realm cultivators languishly sitting on the ground below.

Out of caution, Qianying suddenly leaped to the right, relocating himself.

Ning Qi thought this guy had discovered him, nearly making a move.

But soon he realized the other was acting on instinct. He chuckled inwardly, shifting again behind Qianying.

This time, Qianying sensed nothing.

Ning Qi formed his fingers into the shape of a sword, aimed at Qianying’s back, and struck in an instant.

”One Sword Breaks Ten Thousand Techniques!”

A highly condensed Sword Qi shot out immediately, yet it was extremely stealthy. The space subtly stirred, about to hit Qianying’s back.

In a flash, Qianying felt a chill run down his spine.

As he turned his head, his waist twisted, unleashing a thousand beast shadows from his body, while his hands, resembling beast claws, struck out, shouting, ”Who is there?”

But he couldn’t see anyone behind him, utterly unexpected, rendering his swift strike futile!

Ning Qi’s Sword Qi wouldn’t miss, cutting through the layers of beast shadows.

On top was a layer of Profound Turtle shadow, its shell condensed half-ethereal, half-real, appearing genuine.

Below emerged a regal Pangolin, its scales parted, faintly making noise.

Further down was a white Rhino, its hide solid as concrete...

One beast shadow after another emerged, proving Qianying’s defense unrivaled.

But alas, he was facing Ning Qi, whose Sword Dao was unrivaled, commanding various Power of Rules, all integrated into his Sword Dao, invincible at the same level!

Qianying just finished shouting out ’who is there,’ immediately transitioning into a harrowing scream.

”Hiss~ah!”

The thousand beast shadows on him were cleaved in half by the Sword Qi, his true form beneath, instantly slain by Ning Qi’s sword.

Qianying was proud; he practiced the Ten Thousand Beasts Harmonization Doctrine, achieving mastery of a thousand beasts, enabling him to ascend to Integration Perfection, refining an additional beast to step into Unity Realm.

Yet, he entered the war realm resolutely to protect the Vast Realm, intending to perform unparalleled deeds for it.

Unimaginably, he couldn’t even catch sight of his enemy before being slain under the Sword Qi.

As his Spiritual Sense perished, Qianying barely managed to gather all his Spiritual Sense Power, with his dying breath, issuing a warning to Kuang Shanqing seated in the void.

But his remaining Spiritual Sense seemed blocked by space, utterly unable to reach Kuang Shanqing.

Qianying sank into the void, profoundly unwilling.

Ning Qi stored his corpse away in space, yet he didn’t entirely obliterate Qianying’s Primordial Spirit.

Toward such a genius, Ning Qi only sealed him, planning to handle him later. The best outcome was not to kill if possible, and to have him serve, that would be ideal.

After dealing with Qianying, Ning Qi glanced upward at Kuang Shanqing.

Fortunately, he’d deployed Dimensional Space. Although he and Qianying clashed, inevitably causing energy fluctuations, without the Dimensional Space, Kuang Shanqing would surely notice.

The time taken to resolve Qianying was only a few breaths. Ning Qi gently removed Dimensional Space, appearing behind Kuang Shanqing.
