Chapter 3480 (Three Thousand Four Hundred and Eighty) Yunqi
"So what?" Tie Hongyan asked.

“So… I just told the Young Clan Leader that even if I didn’t succeed in the end, the huge price I mentioned just now has already been paid. I really can’t redeem myself for the Young Clan Leader!” Ning Duanye emphasized again.

"I know." Tie Hongyan said.

"Young Patriarch, will you promise that you won't regret it?" Ning Duanye said.

"Yes." Tie Hongyan said, "Can we start?"

Ning Duanye said: "I will now enter the preparation stage and carry out the practice activities of this stage."

"Is there anything I can do?" Tie Hongyan asked.

"No need." Ning Duanye said.

"Will it not affect Master Ning's practice even if I'm here?" Tie Hongyan asked.

"No." Ning Duanye replied, "Moreover, even when the alchemist is preparing, the challenger must stay in the room where the alchemist is."

"Thank you for your hard work, Taoist Ning." Tie Hongyan said.

"I feel embarrassed for what Young Clan Leader said. I'm actually not sure if I can accomplish this." Ning Duanye said, "After all, I don't know how long I can live. If there is another alchemist in the world who can do this, I will definitely find a way to ask that alchemist to do it for Young Clan Leader."

The two of them exchanged a few more words, and then Ning Duanye took out the items needed for the ritual and began the ritual.

After a long time, he completed the preparatory activities.

"Young Patriarch, I have completed the preparations." Ning Duanye said, "The 'Yun Qi' has appeared in this room, but it is not enough. We need to wait."

"How long will it take?" Tie Hongyan asked.

"I can't say for sure, at most one hour." Ning Duanye said, "It should take less than an hour. The young patriarch and I must be here during this period of time." "Is the next stage that requires me to enter the Yunzhan Domain to break through?" Tie Hongyan asked.

"That's right." Ning Duanye replied, "It's simple to say, it seems to be divided into three stages: preparation stage, breakthrough stage, and exhibition stage. But if the latter two stages are subdivided, it will be more complicated. Of course, if there is anything that needs the cooperation of the young clan leader, I will tell him the truth."

After the two talked for a while, Ning Duanye suddenly asked Tie Hongyan: "Young Patriarch, you really don't regret not starting the challenge yet?"

Tie Hongyan said: "I said before that I don't regret it."

Ning Duanye said: "I may not be able to accomplish this."

Tie Hongyan said: "I know, but I have to try. If I could try to see if I could extend Xunsheng's lifespan, but I didn't try, I would definitely regret it in the future."

Ning Duanye said: "I think..."

He did not continue immediately.

"What's the matter?" Tie Hongyan said, "Master Ning, just tell me directly."

“I feel that if I failed to accomplish this task and caused the young patriarch to pay such a heavy price, would I…” Ning Duanye said.

"What's the matter?" Tie Hongyan asked.

“Am I…feeling sorry to the young clan leader and my master?” Ning Duanye said.

"Whether this succeeds or not, you have done me the right thing." Tie Hongyan said, "You told me everything you wanted to tell me beforehand, and I agreed to it after listening to it. This is my own will. As for being sorry to your master, why do you say that?"

Ning Duanye said: "My master told me to save people... But this time, in order to extend the life of one person, I set the Yunzhan Talisman for another person... causing the other person to die in a very tragic way, and..."
