Fusang Sword Heart Diagram

She had heard that the Sovereign of Phoenix Feather Palace, Shutong Yuanjun, had already reached the half-step Transcendent Realm. How could she possibly surpass such a realm in a mere five hundred years?

Within five hundred years, not only will Bai Ni's cultivation level increase, but Feng Shutong's cultivation level will also increase. However, one's increase will seem much larger, while the other's increase will be smaller, but both will be enough to equal a major realm.

Ning Fusang's innate spiritual body still had its advantages, allowing her to progress much faster than others in cultivation. She was confident that her five hundred years of experience could rival that of a Ming Realm cultivator, but she was no match for Feng Shutong.

However, by then, it wouldn't be so easy for the other party to kill her.

Those who have reached the Transcendent Realm and are at the Bright Realm are already the pinnacle of existence in this world.

Phoenix Feather Palace has only been established for three hundred years, yet it has overpowered all the sects in Nanchun and Zhou, becoming a leading force. Now that I think about it, who knows if it didn't have the support of a Transcendent Realm cultivator behind it?
Kongyun Temple in Beiyu Lingzhou has a small number of disciples, not even as many as the entire Sword Pavilion lineage of Wanyi Sect. Yet, it holds an extraordinary position within Lingzhou. Even the form of the Sword Challenge among Lingzhou cultivators is decided by Kongyun Temple. Isn't this because Kongyun Temple has the only Transformation Realm expert, Zen Master Huiyi, in the entire Lingzhou?
It can be said that the Lingzhou sect gave face to Zen Master Huiyi, not to Kongyun Temple.

Ning Fusang naturally wanted to join such a powerful group, but she knew her own limitations and was not yet qualified to achieve such a feat.

Throughout the entire Southern Star Sword Sect, which has existed for ten thousand years, only Lady Yaohua came closest to the pinnacle of perfection, but she ultimately failed.

This shows how difficult it is to reach the Transcendent Realm of the Fourteenth Realm of Cultivation.

The faint sounds of conversation drifted around me, most of them expressing regret for the fate of the Lingxi Sword Pavilion.

"The Lingxi Sword Pavilion was a peaceful place, seeking only a quiet place free from demons and monsters, yet it was tragically wiped out. It was truly a pitiful end."

"Yes, at least the Hundred Flowers Sect still has survivors, but the Spirit Rhinoceros Sword Pavilion has no survivors. I wonder who they made an enemy of."

"Who else but the demon race could have a conflict with the Lingxi Sword Pavilion? Didn't someone discover traces of the demon race on the sea not long ago?"

"Now that you mention it, something comes to mind. About a year ago, while I was scavenging on Wengzhu Island, I discovered fragments of a demon race ferry that had been carried ashore by the underwater currents."

"The ferry deck is made of Xuan Shui Yao Mu, which is unique to the demon realm. In the human world, you'd be lucky to find a piece the size of a palm. No one but the demons of the demon realm can build a ferry like this."

Ning Fusang lowered her eyelids, lost in thought, and wondered when the cultivator was referring to "a while ago".

Two years have passed. Are Kong Yeqing's men still searching for her and Bai Ni on the sea?

Bai Ni, her hands tucked into her sleeves, said nonchalantly, "With the blessing of the Eternal Echoes, even if Kong Yeqing catches up, there's no need to fear him anymore. I have my own way of trapping them on the sea, isolated and helpless."

Ning Fusang thought to herself: [With the seas so chaotic right now, it might not even be Kong Yeqing's men.]

For some reason, she suddenly remembered the secret that Ku Ge had told her before he died.

The Demon Lord of Jieyun Mountain is a confidant of King Gaiyinling.

They were able to capture the deputy envoy of the Merfolk and imprison him for so many years. Could it be that they really didn't get a single clue about the royal court's secret treasure?

It's understandable that King Gaiyin didn't keep Kuge under his nose; he was probably afraid of leaking information to the other demon kings.

Bai Ni frowned, pondering the meaning behind her words. [Besides the Peacock Demon Clan, are there other demon clans active in the sea?]

As soon as she finished speaking, she realized something and understood: "They're after the Royal Treasury?"

Ning Fusang remained noncommittal, only saying: "The Merfolk royal court has been destroyed for nearly four thousand years. In that long, even the vast ocean could have been turned upside down."

Perhaps someone had already discovered the ruins of the Royal Court, but couldn't cross the Sea of ​​Oblivion. Or perhaps someone did cross the Sea of ​​Oblivion, but lacked the key and was kept outside the gates of the Royal Court's secret treasure. Bai Ni snorted arrogantly, saying, "The ruins of the Royal Court are protected by the Sea Goddess's barrier. Even if ordinary people find the Royal Court's secret treasure, what can they do? They can only look, not take."

She was different. Both the mirage woman and the mermaid were subjects of the Sea Goddess. As long as she was sincere, the door would open for her.

However, the Sea Goddess did indeed show favoritism, especially towards the Merfolk. Even though all the Merfolk had moved away from the royal court, the Sea Goddess still opened a barrier to preserve their territory, preventing outsiders from setting foot there.

Ning Fusang keenly noticed something unconsciously revealed in Bai Ni's words. She knew there was a barrier around the old royal court site, but she had never told Bai Ni that the Fish-Hidden Sword was on her, and Bai Ni had never asked her about it before. So why was Bai Ni so certain that she could enter the royal court's territory?

After making a vow with Bai Ni, and walking together all the way until now, Ning Fusang always thought that Bai Ni didn't know that a key was needed to enter the royal court's territory.

Judging from what she just said, Bai Ni knew about this.

So, besides Yu Zangjian, are there any other ways to enter the royal territory?

Bai Ni agreed to a 30/70 split so readily back then; it turns out this was what she was waiting for.

If she guesses correctly, once they arrive at the royal court's territory, Bai Ni will use the method of entering the royal court's territory to ask her to modify the contract.

At that time, the 30/70 split will probably be her 30% and Bai Niqi's 70%.

However, Ning Fusang didn't mind Bai Ni's little scheme. Whoever has the leverage reaps the lion's share of the profits—that's been the way of the world.

If she didn't have Yu Cangjian and truly needed to rely on Bai Ni to enter the royal court's territory, the division would be 30/70, or even 20/80, which would be reasonable.

Ning Fusang gave Bai Ni a meaningful look, but because of the veil, Bai Ni couldn't see the expression on Ning Fusang's face.

She was unaware that her unintentional remark had exposed her true nature.

If Bai Ni had known that Ning Fusang was this meticulous, she definitely wouldn't have dared to write that insightful jade slip.

【Yaoling, we've seen the commotion here and gathered all the information. The destruction of the Lingxi Sword Pavilion has nothing to do with us. Let's go.】

To be honest, Bai Ni was quite happy that the Lingxi Sword Pavilion was wiped out.

This way, it would be much easier for her to cross the territory of the Lingxi Sword Pavilion without anyone stopping her.

Ning Fusang nodded, and the two of them left the crowd without making a sound.

With a history of over 240,000 years, Zhongling Tianxia has seen countless sects destroyed. What is the Lingxi Sword Pavilion compared to that?
The once-thriving Tantric Buddhism of Zhengna was also wiped out overnight and never existed again.

The world of Zhongling is vast, and many sects rise and fall in popularity, with only a handful leaving a lasting mark. In another five or ten years, it's likely that hardly anyone will remember the Lingxi Sword Pavilion.

Several hundred miles away from the ruins of Lingxi Sword Pavilion, Changman finally caught up, spitting out a bubble filled with colorful treasures.

Bai Ni scoffed, a half-smile playing on her lips, and said, "You know how to pick up bargains, you're not stupid after all."
