Chapter 499: 497. A Changing Life (1)
Translator: 549690339
Wei Ling’s comprehension of the Heavenly Dome Stone was not done in a day.
He needed to study it many times.
He sat facing the Heavenly Dome Stone as if he was facing a wall. He sat there for an entire day.
When the time limit of one day was about to arrive, he suddenly stood up and stretched out a finger to poke at the Heaven Dome Stone.
It was as if he was stabbing a spear at the Heavenly Dome Stone.
The transparent crystal floating in the air trembled slightly.
Wei Ling’s fingers retracted as soon as they touched. The man and the treasure faced each other silently again.
Chen Luoyang’s figure appeared next to the Heaven Dome Stone. “”Looks like you have gained quite a lot.”
“Just a little.” Wei Ling exhaled slowly. His expression was calm and composed, making it difficult to guess what he was thinking.
He turned to look at Chen Luoyang. ” I will find the Jade Toad Heart as soon as possible and send it to Cult Master Chen. When the time comes, I hope Cult Master Chen can borrow the Dome Sky Stone again.
He said that he would find it as soon as possible, but he just didn’t bring it with him.
Since he had already agreed to Chen Luoyang’s conditions, there was no need to dawdle. The earlier he could use the Heaven Dome Stone to practice martial arts, the better.
When he returned, he would immediately retrieve the Jade Toad Heart and prepare to meet Chen Luoyang for the second time.
“Very good. I like people who keep their promises.” ” As long as you abide by the previous agreement, it’s fine to lend you the Dome Stone a few times until you have some success in your cultivation, ” Chen Luoyang said indifferently. “The next time we meet, is it still at the Thousand Ton Lake?” Wei Ling asked.
“Not bad.” Chen Luoyang said.
“Since that’s the case, Cult Master Chen, take care.” Wei Ling cupped his fists at Chen Luoyang.
He took one last look at Su Ye, who was following behind Chen Luoyang, before turning around and leaving.
Watching Wei Ling’s back disappear, Su Ye asked curiously, “”Senior Brother, is the opportunity you mentioned going to fall on him?”
‘ It depends on something he will send over soon. ” Chen Luoyang kept the Heaven Dome Stone and called Su Ye to leave the Thousand Ton Lake together with him. They gathered with Tu Shanyi and the other Ancient Gods Clan members before returning to the headquarters.
In the days that followed, while waiting for Wei Ling to deliver the goods to his doorstep, Chen Luoyang calmly organized what he had learned while guiding Zhang Tianheng, Liu Si, and the others in their cultivation.
Inside and outside the Ancient Gods Clan, people were affected by two major events. The first was that the Divine Devil Palace was about to reopen and recruit new members. The second was that Lian Bu Yi, Peng Feng, and the others had retaliated against the Wilderness for interfering in their internal affairs.
These two matters took up most of the Ancient Gods Clan’s energy. They didn’t seem to pay much attention to the turmoil in the West Qin Imperial Dynasty and stayed out of it.
But to Chen Luoyang, it was a different matter.
His clone, Daoist Banhai, rode on the clouds and stepped on the purple clouds. He traveled a long distance and crossed hundreds of millions of miles of vast territory to reach the Yong Yue mountain range.
Thousand Parting Peak was one of the steepest peaks on the southern foot of the Yong Yue mountain range.
Chen Luoyang borrowed Daoist Banhai’s body to arrive at the eastern part of Thousand Parting Peak.
According to the information provided by the white jade bottle, Leng Ji should still be in this area.
However, this area was still vast. If a Martial Monarch Realm expert were to hide in there and carefully conceal his presence, it would still be like fishing him out of the sea.
The white jade bottle didn’t provide a more detailed and accurate location. Thus, even if Chen Luoyang himself came, he wouldn’t be able to determine Leng Ji’s location immediately.
Of course, even Daoist Banhai’s clone was at the level of a Martial Saint.
If they used a large-scale bombardment and covered the Thousand Desert Peak with firepower, it was still possible to force Leng Ji out.
However, Chen Luoyang didn’t intend to stand in front of the stage this time. He was more willing to observe from the side and wait for an opportunity to act when necessary.
Yan Mingkong should be around here by now.
People from the same lineage as Misery in the Western Qin Empire might have been slightly slower if not for their luck.
After all, the information that Chen Luoyang had given them was only as far as the Harmony Moon Mountain Range. They needed time and luck to find Thousand Parting Peak.
This was the opening that Chen Luoyang had specially left for Yan Mingkong and Leng Ji. Otherwise, it would be difficult for the two Martial Emperors to break out of the encirclement under the heavy pursuit of the Martial Saints.
But before that, Yan Mingkong had to find Leng Ji first.
She didn’t disappoint Chen Luoyang.
In a valley below Thousand Parting Peak, a woman in white stood on the flowing water, quietly looking at the river bank opposite.
There, a young man dressed like a woodcutter seemed to be shivering.
“Leng Ji.”
Yan Mingkong’s voice was cold and his tone was flat. It was not a question, but a statement.
“Fairy, I don’t understand what you’re saying…” The woodcutter looked at Yan Mingkong, who was standing still on the flowing water like a ghost. His expression was filled with fear and confusion.
Yan Mingkong’s expression didn’t change at all, but his eyes were icy blue.
Without waiting for Woodcutter to finish his words, her bone-chilling gaze was like a blue ice sword that slashed directly at his face.
The woodcutter’s body suddenly stopped trembling.
His eyes turned sharp as he faced Yan Mingkong’s sword radiance.
Neither side seemed to intend to make too much noise.
The saber light and the sword light collided silently in the air and then disappeared together.
A silent gust of wind swept through the air.
The woodcutter’s face cracked open.
Underneath the two halves of the skin was another face.
Although he was young, he had a dignified and heroic face.
However, this face was covered in dark clouds and his brows were tightly knitted.
It was the former deputy general of the North Guards of the West Qin Imperial Dynasty, Leng Ji.
The icy blue color in Yan Mingkong’s eyes disappeared, and he had no intention of continuing to attack.
Leng Ji let out a long breath of turbid air. His body suddenly changed and returned to his normal form. His body was almost a head taller than before.
“Who are you? Who sent you to find me?” Leng Ji asked in a deep voice.
Although his cultivation had improved greatly, he could sense a dangerous aura from the woman in white in front of him. He did not dare to underestimate her.
Although he spoke, Leng Ji was actually observing his surroundings carefully, looking for an opportunity to escape.
“My name is Yan Mingkong. I don’t belong to any sect.” The white-clothed woman’s voice was emotionless.”l was indeed ordered to find you, but I have nothing more to tell you.”
” What do you want? ” Leng Ji became even more alert. ” Then what do you want? ”
“I’m bringing you to see someone.” Yan Mingkong said.
Qin Emperor, Li Ce?” Leng Ji took a deep breath.
Chen Luoyang, who had transformed into Daoist Banhai, stood on the cliff above the valley and quietly watched the two of them confront each other.
Hearing Leng Ji call out the name of the Western Qin Great Emperor, Chen Luoyang fell into deep thought.
From the looks of it, Leng Ji roughly knew what had happened that day.
Even if he didn’t know the whole situation, he knew that he had almost been possessed by Li Ce, the Great Emperor of Western Qin.
Therefore, he no longer respected and submitted to the West Qin Great Emperor.
From this point of view, Leng Ji wasn’t as blindly loyal as Ban Hongqing of the Divine Lands to Li Yuanlong, who was willing to sacrifice everything.
Although it was inhumane, to be honest, if the West Qin Emperor Li Ce could successfully possess the body and return to his former peak as soon as possible, it would be most beneficial to the West Qin Empire as a whole.
However, he would also lose his life. To Leng Ji, he was willing to risk his life for the Great Qin that he was loyal to. He was willing to fight Chen Luoyang, who was clearly stronger than him, to the death and not retreat. However, he seemed unwilling to become the reliance for the Qin Emperor’s rebirth.
From being a loyal general of Great Qin in the past, to hiding in hiding and facing the traitors of West Qin, the battle at West Qin’s capital, Zhengyang City, had completely changed this General Leng’s life.
As Chen Luovang sighed with emotion, he became interested in another question.
When Yan Mingkong said that he wanted to bring Leng Ji to meet someone, Leng Ji’s first reaction was the Great Emperor of Western Qin, Li Ce.
This meant that in his opinion, if someone could find his current hiding spot, the most likely person would be the Qin Emperor.
He was certain that the Great Emperor of Western Qin, Li Ce, was still alive.
From this point of view, Chen Luoyang felt that his previous deduction was correct.
Leng Ji, who had two streams of Black Dragon Qi, did indeed have some kind of connection with the Qin Emperor.
It was the easiest for them to find each other.
If you don’t count my white jade bottle…Chen Luoyang thought to himself.
Because of Chen Luoyang’s guidance, the first person to find Leng Ji, Yan Mingkong, was suspected by Leng Ji to be related to the Great Emperor of Western Qin, Li Ce.
Thus, Leng Ji was full of wariness when he looked at Yan Mingkong.
Yan Mingkong ignored his vigilance and said, “”The person I brought you to see is a Daoist called Ban Hai. As for the Great Emperor of Western Qin, it has nothing to do with me.”
“Daoist Banhai? Forgive me for my ignorance and ignorance, I have never heard of it. ” Leng Ji did not let his guard down.
However, he couldn’t find Yan Mingkong’s weakness.
Although he had broken through to the fifteenth realm in a short period of time, he had been hiding in the Yong Yue mountain range’s Thousand Parting Peak to recuperate, and his injuries had yet to fully recover.
At this moment, he wasn’t confident in facing Yan Mingkong.
” I was ordered by someone, ” Yan Mingkong said calmly. ” This is the first time I’ve heard of Taoist Banhai, but that’s not important.
The important thing is that we don’t have much time left. I came to find you. It’s still fine here at Thousand Parting Peak, but there are already many people from Western Qin and Misery in the entire Yong Yue Mountain Range. I secretly captured a person from West Qin to understand your situation and came here.
If the people of West Qin have more time, they can find you at Thousand Parting Peak. ”
“Thank you for your reminder. I’ll leave now.” Leng Ji bowed and was about to leave the valley.
However, Yan Mingkong’s figure flew and immediately approached.
Although I don’t know why I want to take you to see Taoist Banhai, I have no ill intentions. ” “If the person who ordered me to come here is willing to do it himself, you have no chance to resist,” Yan Mingkong said.
Leng Ji suddenly raised his saber Qi and was ready to move. He was on guard against Yan Mingkong.”Whether it’s Daoist Banhai or the Qin Emperor, perhaps it’s not convenient for him to come here himself, so he lent his hand to you.”
When Daoist Banhai, who was Chen Luoyang’s incarnation, heard this, he knew that Leng Ji was still suspicious that Yan Mingkong was related to the Qin Emperor.
The Qin Emperor had also disappeared without a trace. Clearly, it was not suitable for him to take the initiative to jump into the encirclement of the Yong Yue Mountain Range.
“Follow me. You have a 50% chance. Perhaps you can find an opportunity to plot against me or get rid of me.” Yan Mingkong didn’t mind Leng Ji’s wariness.
“”lf you don’t come with me, the others will be attracted to the battle here. You won’t be able to escape..”
