Night without Borders

Chapter 146 From the Abyss to the Clouds
The Black Peng's entire body seemed to be made of black gold. It stood on a mountain, overlooking the plains at night. It was healing its wounds and emitting astonishing energy fluctuations.

"Third brother, you are really cruel. You directly bring the monster into the country?!" Black Peng was dissatisfied. Fortunately, it recovered quickly and was able to protect itself, otherwise it might have been challenged by powerful outsiders.

Lao Lu quickly explained: "Brother, I'm scared. He is refining Lao Si's silver blood and will definitely go further."

The Fire Scaled Lion, which is more majestic than an elephant, has glowing red scales. It is also healing its wounds. Its entire body is covered in flames, and it lets out low roars from time to time.

If another foreign saint had been shot in the frontal bone, he would definitely have died. Although it was in great pain and went crazy for a while, it gradually got better and the bloody hole in the frontal bone was slowly repairing.

There is a small amount of strange real blood glowing in its body, and its bloodline can be traced back to a top species in the deepest part of the Night Fog World - the Fire Kirin.

Hei Peng said, "Since you have already attracted the demon, I will issue a hunting order in my name. Please ask more of your fellow Taoists to come and encircle and suppress him. Do not let him leave the Shenshang Plain!"

"Okay!" The old donkey nodded immediately.

Under the cover of night, on the Shenshang Plain, the roars of beasts could be heard one after another. A large number of birds of prey spread their wings, cutting through the thick night fog and circling over the dense forest.

After the hunting order was issued, the territory ruled by the four old demons was in chaos, filled with powerful alien creatures, including a small group of humans.

The silver haze surrounding Qin Ming was completely absorbed by him, and the rich medicinal fragrance penetrated into his body. The seventh rebirth had begun!
He felt it clearly: blood scabs appeared on his wounds, broken bones were connecting, his whole body was burning hot, his flesh and blood seemed to be purified, auspicious mist was surrounding him, and his energy and spirit became more vigorous.

Between his internal organs, clouds and mist were rising, and a kind of vigorous vitality was emerging, as if the early spring had arrived and all things were blooming.

His broken bones were connecting and growing at the fastest speed. At this rate, his bones would have grown fully before his new bones had even been fully formed.

Without the fragrance emitted by the silver heart, Qin Ming's situation was much better than before. He used the light to blend into the dust and merged into the dense forest under the night. He had been standing still for a quarter of an hour.

But the tranquility was eventually broken. There were too many monsters and demons in this land, and soon a creature discovered him.

This is a sheep, as black as ink, and ten meters tall. Its physique is even stronger than that of the fire-scaled lion. Its two horns look rough and not sharp.

However, Qin Ming was keenly aware of the danger.

Sure enough, this black sheep was very special. It had no demonic energy, but pure physical strength. It ran over and knocked down all kinds of trees with overwhelming force.

Qin Ming suspected that this black sheep had practiced iron shirt. There was a layer of black light around his body, making him indestructible and too ferocious.

He was in the process of rebirth, and his bones had just been connected. He didn't want to fight any powerful creature, fearing that the broken bones would be dislocated again, so he turned around and left.

Boom!

The huge rocks blocking the road on the plain were crushed to pieces by the black sheep's hoof. Wherever its rough horns passed, towering ancient trees disintegrated in large numbers. It seemed as if it wanted to poke a hole in the sky.

"My name is Yang Dingtian. I heard that you have a silver heart in your hand, so I came to take it. If you hand it over, I will let you go." It said.

"I ate it!" Qin Ming responded.

Yang Dingtian chased after him and said, “It’s the same if I refine you. The medicinal effect will still be there for a short period of time.”

With a splash, Qin Ming jumped into a big river. However, just after he swam a few miles away, he was forced up by a huge fish over ten meters long in the water.

Not long after, a mountain ape appeared. It was also a giant, at least fifteen meters tall. Not to mention its Heavenly Light Power, even the innate divine power of its race was not something that an ordinary outsider could deal with.

This mountain ape was remembered by Qin Ming!

He was being chased by a mountain ape. Its huge paw kept stepping down and almost grazed Qin Ming's body several times.

The ground cracked, trees broke, and the mountain ape was holding a bone knife, which was made from the ribs of a giant beast, and chopped it down, causing the earth to shake.

Qin Ming didn't want to take action, he wanted to make sure the broken bones healed, so he finally jumped into a big lake.

Soon, he rushed to the other side of the lake with his teeth bared. There were a large number of electric eels in the lake. Fortunately, their skills were not that advanced.

Qin Ming spent the whole day on the run.

Late at night, he calmed down, endured the fishy smell, and hid in the mouth of a giant crocodile. He never thought that he would become so miserable in order to survive.

He was chased by various huge creatures, so he hid in the swamp and smeared mud on his body in an attempt to stay dormant, but he encountered a crocodile of the outer saint level.

This time, he could no longer endure it, and took the initiative to rush into the giant crocodile's mouth, using the power of heavenly light to explode inside and blast away its vitality, but leaving no injuries on the surface.

Qin Ming lay in the crocodile's mouth and finally relaxed his whole body.

"The Six Imperial Ancestral Temple's assessment of its core disciples..." he whispered to himself.

This time, the elder divided the venue according to their strength.

In his new realm, he eventually encountered terrifying old monsters such as Black Peng, Fire Scale Lion, and Yang Dingtian, whose strength far exceeded that of ordinary outer saints.

If he sets foot in the Outer Saint Realm, will he be arranged to take the test in an area where there are spirit-field-level creatures, and will he encounter creatures of the third realm?

That night, Qin Ming slept deeply and his body underwent amazing changes.

On his body surface, golden needles were used to sew and mend his clothes, and silver mud was applied all over his body like medicine.

All the injured parts of Qin Ming, including the broken bones, made slight sounds, and after being "mended", they were nourished by powerful medicine and healed quickly.

The next day, he woke up early, feeling full of energy and in the best condition ever!

Apart from the extremely poor environment in the Alligator's Mouth, he had no complaints. All his injuries were healed, his strength increased, his five senses became sharper, his skylight energy became stronger, and his consciousness and wisdom also accumulated more.

"If this continues, my seventh rebirth will be over in half a day!" Qin Ming is now very confident. His broken bones have finally healed and it does not affect his actions!

He walked out of the giant crocodile's mouth and washed himself in the clear water pool many times. In fact, with the protection of the sunlight, he was not stained with any fishy smell.

Qin Ming grilled an electric eel and ate some wild fruits. His eyes were filled with cold electricity. He was already thinking about revenge. Yesterday was too miserable.

Thinking of those old monsters, he suspected that the Fire Scale Lion had special "strange blood" that might continue to strengthen his foundation.

After one night, the demons' enthusiasm for hunting him waned because they felt that he had fully absorbed the medicinal properties of the silver blood and was of no value anymore.

At noon, when the night was at its lightest, thick fog covered the Shenshang Plain. Qin Ming was in a good mood, as his seventh rebirth was completely completed.

He realized by instinct that his foundation had slightly exceeded the upper limit again!

However, even though he obtained two kinds of "strange blood" one after another and enriched his foundation, it was not as exaggerated as imagined, and only slightly broke the upper limit.

"It seems that when you are a freshman for the first time, your arms have a strength of 1,500 kilograms. This foundation is difficult to overcome."

Because, it seems that no master-level figure in history has achieved this.

After Qin Ming's body was reborn seven times, it exceeded the upper limit of 10,500 kilograms, but was still less than 11,000 kilograms.

Of course, this is just his intuition and rough estimate.

"If I want to break through the upper limit and strengthen my foundation, I need to find more rare blood!" Qin Ming discovered that the Shenshang Plain seemed to be a little special, and creatures with special blood were not very rare.

At least, he has discovered three creatures!

In addition to the significant improvement in physical fitness and strength, the strange light in his flesh and blood also became more intense, and a ball of golden haze appeared next to it, like a shattered sun mixed with light mist.

This is an ability he gained during his seventh rebirth!
Qin Ming took a deep breath and calmed himself. His strength had not yet been fully improved. To be precise, the real qualitative change had just begun!
He glanced at the vast plain covered with trees and said, "What a great place! It's perfect for practicing Yi Mu Jing!"

He sat cross-legged on the ground, practicing the technique, and immediately a fresh breath flowed through the area, the grass and trees rustled, and a faint green flowed towards him.

Qin Ming had already developed Yi Mu Jin, and now began to take "Falling Fruit" to improve this power.

The rich otherworldly light from the fallen fruits almost turned into liquid and fell into his mouth, looking extremely brilliant. It was also extremely turbulent in his body. Most people could not bear it and their flesh would be cooked.

But Qin Ming could bear it. As he ate one fallen fruit after another, his Yi Mu Jin continued to increase. In the end, his whole body was covered with green light.

In particular, this forest was resonating with him and providing him with vitality. This was indeed a miraculous skill, by which he could prolong his life and enhance the essence of life!

Green clouds were lingering, light and mist were dense, and rich vitality was gathering towards Qin Ming. The whole forest was rustling, as if it was talking and communicating with Qin Ming.

In the end, Qin Ming's body was as white as jade, and his hair was emerald green, with each strand crystal clear, as if he had turned into an elf in the mountains.

With the help of fallen fruits and resonance with the forest, he has already practiced Yi Mu Gong to a higher level and reached the limit of his current body.

"The Yi Mu Jing is not only good for health, it is also very powerful!" Qin Ming's palm emitted a green light, and he gently slapped the ground. With a bang, the surface of the ground was broken, and the power penetrated deep into the ground.

He flicked lightly, and the green light flowed and brushed against a huge rock next to him, turning it into powder.

When he stopped practicing the Yi Wood Sutra, his hair turned black again.

Then, he began to practice Wind and Thunder Power, which was a power method from the Wind and Thunder Sword Manual that he got from the weasel. He valued it very much and always wanted to master the power of thunder and lightning.

Although this was not pure thunder but accompanied by wind, Qin Ming was already very satisfied.

This Wind-Thunder Blade was suspected to be the unique skill of a great sect, and its power method was equally amazing. Qin Ming's body was wrapped in lightning and thunder, accompanied by the power of wind. He lightly swung his fist, and the sound of wind and thunder rolled!

The most important thing is that it is very powerful!
Afterwards, he also integrated the electric force from the Five Elements Palace. Although it was not an advanced thunder and lightning technique, it was still extraordinary.

Next, Qin Ming improved his Tianguang Jin, Shaoyang Jin, Fenghuo Jin, Jiejin Jin, Longzhua Jin, Mingguang Jin, and Yuhua Jin one by one.

He controlled it with calligraphy on silk, integrating everything into one!

Yesterday, he experienced a life-and-death crisis and was chased by all kinds of demons and monsters, as if he had fallen into an abyss.

Now, after his seventh rebirth, he has integrated various techniques and returned to the clouds again.

Qin Ming integrated a total of nine kinds of power techniques, so many at once, unprecedented!

Most of them were obtained in Luofu Fairy Mountain when he went to help Li Qingyue obtain things close to immortality.

In fact, he still had three kinds of Sky Light Power in his hands that had not been upgraded or integrated, mainly because he had eaten all the fallen fruits.

Meng Xinghai prepared many bags of fallen fruits for him, but they were all used up. The main reason was that the power he used this time was very strong and consumed too much energy.

Moreover, Qin Ming really couldn't eat the fallen fruit now. For the first time, he felt that he also had a limit and was "full" for the time being. If he ate any more, he felt that he would explode on the spot.

By now, he has integrated the four great extraordinary skills, a total of twenty-seven kinds of heavenly light power!
When Qin Ming stood up, the integrated Heavenly Light Energy penetrated his body and had obviously undergone a qualitative change, becoming much stronger than before!

This kind of skylight was very bright, making him look like he was bathing in the light of the otherworldly sky, wearing a layer of sacred armor, like a young god walking out of the brilliant sun, his every move was transcendent, and at the same time he had a powerful aura.

"It's time to set off!" Qin Ming set off, holding a mutton-fat jade iron knife, and walked alone on the Shenshang Plain.
