Full level of enlightenment: I achieved Daozu by ascending to the lower realm

"it is good."

Ning Qi only needed to glance over to know what was going on.

This place is specifically for people to enjoy the view of the garden.

The arrangement was quite thoughtful.

"Young Master Ning, we'll come and call you again later."

The maid gave Ning Qi a brief introduction before taking her leave.

Ning Qi then put away the token that had been given to him before he left, which was obviously for entering and leaving this place.

"Master, this place is really nice."

"It's much better than the Ten Thousand Swords Sect."

The spirit medicine emerged from his dantian and wandered around the courtyard.

"That's right, sometimes what we see is not necessarily the truth."

"What we consider to be bad may not actually be bad."

Ning Qi nodded, also admiring the beautiful scenery.

Occasionally, one can see the maids sweeping the garden reflected in this bronze mirror.

Everyone looked busy.

“Master, but we also need to find a way to leak their information to Miss Xu and the others.”

"Otherwise, wouldn't we have come all this way for nothing?"

The spirit of medicine seemed to realize something, and thus offered a reminder.

"You've reminded me."

Ning Qi snapped out of his daze: "We need to think of a way, otherwise we really won't be able to get out."

"Yes, they want to protect you, and that's a problem."

"We showed too much strength at the beginning."

Yao Ling shrugged and then said, "But if we don't do it this way, we might not be able to get their attention."

"Then you won't be able to get any information, and you might even be treated like a Deadpool."

This was a dilemma, and Ning Qi never expected that he would possess such a magical talent from the demon race.

It even managed to cause a celestial phenomenon in the end.

"That's strange, I only activated a little bit of magic."

"How did this trigger such a celestial phenomenon?"

Even now, Ning Qi still doesn't understand what happened.

"Master, could it be your Chaos Flame?"

Yao Ling seemed to realize something and couldn't help but ask.

"Chaotic Flames? These are flames from the Immortal Realm."

"How could it be related to the demon race?"

Upon hearing this, Ning Qi shook his head and said, "No matter what, we've successfully infiltrated."

"Now, it's up to them to decide what to do."

"If there's an opportunity, we'll try to get the message out."

"Correct."

"We'll lead the way."

Yao Ling nodded vigorously and said with certainty.

"I wonder how Xu Qingqiu and the others are doing, and whether they've taken this matter seriously."

Ning Qi sighed and focused his attention ahead.

"Master, look, someone is coming."

Yao Ling pointed to a bronze mirror and said to Ning Qi.

This bronze mirror faces the path that leads into the attic.

Everyone's past is clearly visible.

"Oh? It's Lei Shan, but who's that behind him?"

Ning Qi focused his attention on the bronze mirror.

The first person you see is Lei Shan, with a young girl beside him.

She had a graceful figure and was wearing a light green long dress.

Her long, black hair fell naturally, and her eyebrows and eyes were as beautiful as a painting, just like a fairy in a painting.

"Wow, I didn't expect there to be beauties among the demons."

Yao Ling couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

"The more beautiful something is, the more careful you should be."

Ning Qi then said in a deep voice.

"Master, they've come up. I wonder what they want."

Yao Ling watched them until they arrived at the door of the pavilion before asking curiously.

"We'll have to wait and see."

Ning Qi shook his head, then came to his senses: "Let's take a look at the rooms here."

"it is good!"

After Yao Ling agreed, she followed Ning Qi into a side room.

In the side room, besides the bed, there was also a wardrobe.

Upon opening it, I was surprised to find some clothes thoughtfully placed inside, clearly for the guests to wear.

In the center, there is a meditation cushion, which is obviously for people to practice meditation.

After leaving the side room, they came to the main hall.

This place can be used to entertain guests.

Further inside was a private room specifically for cultivation.

In the center, there is a bronze furnace.

Demonic energy surges within this bronze furnace from time to time.

"Master, where did they get the demonic energy they cultivate?"

The spirit became curious and came over to check on the situation.

"This must have been made by one of their Golden Immortal level experts."

"It's similar to our elixirs."

Ning Qi also came over, observed carefully for a while, and then analyzed.

"That's quite possible."

Yao Ling nodded, agreeing wholeheartedly, and said, "Their inability to absorb spiritual energy is the most difficult part."

"We can improve our strength by absorbing spiritual energy."

"What's so difficult about this?"

"Have you forgotten that the Boundary Sea is full of evil energy?"

"They can refine this evil energy at will as long as they go into the Boundary Sea!"

Ning Qi glanced at Yao Ling: "You haven't been to the Boundary Sea for a long time, so you've forgotten about this, haven't you?"

"This is just like how we can't absorb the evil energy within the Boundary Sea; we have no advantage in the Boundary Sea."

"As for the demons, once they arrive at the Boundary Sea, it's like fish entering water."

"Oh right, how could I forget about that!"

Upon hearing this, Yao Ling suddenly understood.

"Someone's coming."

Just as Ning Qi was about to say something, he suddenly sensed movement at the door.

"It must be Lei Shan who has arrived."

Seeing him leave, Yao Ling quickly followed him out.

With a single flash, it disappeared directly into his dantian and was hidden away again.

Ning Qi had already arrived in the courtyard.

"Squeak."

After a sound, the courtyard gate was opened by a maid.

Ning Qi looked towards the door and, sure enough, found Lei Shan there.

The girl following beside her was the same one from before.

"Brother Ning, let me introduce you."

Lei Shan smiled as he entered, then introduced, "This is our family head's daughter, Zhao Zhirou."

"Young Master Ning."

Zhao Zhirou stepped forward and greeted them.

"Miss Zhao."

Ning Qi also greeted him politely.

The two became acquainted.

"Brother Ning, we've come to invite you to a banquet."

Lei Shan extended the invitation in a very casual manner.

"Oh, it's ready so quickly."

Ning Qi was somewhat surprised to hear this.

They've only been here a short time, and they're already ready.

"Yes, our patriarch finished dealing with his business and was looking forward to hosting a welcome dinner for Brother Ning as soon as possible."

Lei Shan laughed loudly, then stepped aside: "Come on, let's talk as we walk."

"Young Master Ning, please."

Zhao Zhirou also turned to the side and invited Ning Qi to join them.

This was clearly Zhao Yunze's arrangement, who specially sent his daughter to welcome Ning Qi.

This is considered giving him plenty of face.

"please."

Ning Qi didn't hesitate and followed after agreeing.

The three of them left the Sumeru Courtyard together.

They soon arrived outside the attic, and together they walked through the garden towards the front yard.

"Brother Ning, our patriarch even gave up his seclusion to come and host a banquet for you."

"This has allowed us to benefit as well."

As Lei Shan walked, he jokingly said, "We almost never see the head of the family on ordinary days."

“Yes, it’s been so long since I’ve spent time with my dad.” “Let alone had a meal with him.”

Zhao Zhirou echoed.

The tone was more like a complaint.

"Is that so? Then I am truly honored."

Ning Qi, hearing their coordinated argument, couldn't bring himself to refute them.

Naturally, one would have to chime in with a comment.

"Brother Ning, don't be shy later, we're all on the same side!"

Lei Shan continued, "Tonight, we'll drink until we drop."

"Okay, it's been a long time since I've tasted anything delicious."

Ning Qi nodded, and then continued on his way.

They chatted and laughed all the way, and after passing through the backyard corridor, they soon arrived at the front yard.

You can smell the aroma of food from afar.

Ning Qi followed them forward and soon arrived at a main hall.

Inside, you can already hear people talking and laughing.

"Master, Brother Ning has arrived."

Lei Shan stepped forward and said respectfully.

"Okay, okay, please come in."

Soon, Zhao Yunze's voice came through.

He personally came to the door to welcome Ning Qi.

This made Ning Qi feel somewhat flattered.

"Senior, you're too kind."

He hurried forward and continued speaking.

"Oh, you are a distinguished guest, so of course we must treat you well."

Zhao Yunze waved his hand, then pulled Ning Qi into the main room.

At this moment, a dining table was placed in the center.

Steaming hot food was placed on top.

Several other people were sitting at the table; they were clearly Zhao's trusted confidants.

"Let me introduce you. This is Zhao Tianlei, my eldest son."

Zhao Yunze then introduced Ning Qi directly.

Before him stood a burly young man with a face full of fierce features.

Although he resembles Zhao Yunze somewhat, he is even more ferocious.

"Brother Zhao."

Ning Qi nodded in acknowledgment and then clasped his hands in greeting.

"Brother Ning."

Zhao Tianlei also stood up and responded.

"This is my second son, Zhao Tianzang."

Zhao Yunze then introduced Ning Qi.

"Brother Ning, I've heard so much about you."

Zhao Tianzang also stood up and greeted Ning Qi.

"Gentlemen, you flatter me."

Ning Qi clasped his hands in a fist salute and said with a smile.

"Come on, let's not stand on ceremony, sit down and talk."

After Zhao Yunze made his introductions, he then invited everyone to sit down.

After Ning Qi sat down, Zhao Yunze raised his glass again.

Others followed suit.

"Come on, let's have a drink with young friend Ning."

"Welcome him to our team."

Zhao Yunze raised his wine glass and then invited everyone to join in the toast.

"Brother Ning, welcome."

"Welcome!"

"..."

Several people raised their glasses and drank with him.

After downing a glass of wine, Ning Qi smiled and said, "Thank you all. It is an honor to have you come to your esteemed place."

That's not right.

"This will be your home from now on too."

Zhao Yunze said with a smile, "From now on, we're all on the same side."

"Yes, we're on the same side from now on."

Lei Shan echoed this.

If it weren't for Ning Qi, he wouldn't even be qualified to be at this dinner table.

Now that Ning Qi is here, he has this opportunity.

We should naturally thank Ning Qi.

He played an indispensable role as Ning Qi's mentor.

"Young Master Ning, I'd like to offer you a toast."

At this moment, Zhao Zhirou took the initiative to pick up her wine glass and smiled at Ning Qi.

"it is good!"

Ning Qi didn't hesitate and drank it all in one gulp.

"Brother Ning, you have a good capacity for alcohol."

Zhao Tianlei also raised his glass at the same time: "Come on, let me toast you too. From now on, we're brothers."

"it is good!"

This time, Ning Qi accepted the offer without hesitation, raising his glass and downing it in one gulp.

"Young friend Ning, come, don't just drink, try our delicious food."

"These are all rare delicacies that you can't find anywhere else."

Zhao Yunze served Ning Qi some food, while boasting, "These are all delicacies we got from the Immortal Realm. They were transported back after a long journey."

"Oh? This is a spirit scroll from the celestial realm?"

Ning Qi then turned his attention to the food.

I was so busy toasting that I didn't pay attention to these clever people.

Now we finally have time to find out.

"Not bad, how about trying it?"

Lei Shan echoed this.

"It's truly delicious and unique."

Ning Qi took a bite and exclaimed in praise.

"Then eat more."

Zhao Yunze laughed heartily and then said, "Everyone, please eat, don't be shy."

"it is good!"

"Then I won't stand on ceremony."

"..."

The group then began to savor the delicious food.

Everyone toasted and drank, creating a lively atmosphere.

"Young friend Ning, what are your plans for the future?"

When everyone had almost finished eating, Zhao Yunze suddenly remembered something and asked with a smile.

"I want to continue my adventures in the Boundary Sea."

"Only in this way can we continuously improve our strength."

Ning Qi thought for a moment and then spoke directly.

This is a good opportunity, at least an opportunity to connect with the outside world.

Otherwise, just like Yao Ling said, we'll really be trapped here.

Then there would be no point in coming here.

"Oh, are we going to the Boundary Sea?"

"Are you going to the Border Sea Battlefield?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Tianlei immediately became interested: "We're also going there, but we won't be setting off for another few days."

"Are you also going to the Border Sea battlefield?"

Ning Qi snapped out of his daze and showed a hint of curiosity.

Both the people from the Myriad Swords Sect and the people from the Immortal Realm went to the same battlefield in the Boundary Sea.

Doesn't that mean they might go to war?

"Yes, we need to restrain the people of the Immortal Realm, and at the same time, we need to clear our battlefield."

"Furthermore, there are ancient legacies there, and we can't leave them all to the people of the Immortal Realm."

"Once you get there, you'll be fighting over them."

Zhao Yunze nodded and said meaningfully, "If we can encounter ancient inheritances, especially those of our demon race, then our trip will not have been in vain."

"However, the chances of encountering such a legacy are not high, as it has been completely plundered over the years."

"Some may not even have a chance to be born before they are destroyed."

"I see."

Ning Qi suddenly realized.

In fact, wherever they go, they all have the same purpose: to preserve and utilize resources.

Otherwise, who would take the risk?

"Brother Ning, if you want to go, we can go together!"

Zhao Tianzang looked at Ning Qi and continued, "As long as we go, we will definitely have a chance to obtain the inheritance."

"Master, what should we do? Your words have caused us trouble."

Yao Ling felt nervous upon hearing their invitation.

If we go with them, how will we fight back when we encounter people from the Immortal Realm or this realm? (End of Chapter)
