I cut off my love, and my senior brother and master regretted it.

Chapter 48 Interception on the Road
Ning Ruoxi brought Li Yunyun to a hillside below. They could no longer fly. If they continued flying, they would lose their spiritual energy. If they were to fight, it would be too disadvantageous for them.

When the two people behind saw Ning Ruoxi stop, they also stopped. The two people wrapped their faces with black cloth, so Ning Ruoxi could not see their faces clearly.

Judging from the aura emanating from them, they should all be cultivators in the late stage of foundation building.

"Sister Ning, why did you stop?" Li Yunyun didn't know what was going on and asked Ning Ruoxi with a suspicious look on her face.

Ning Ruoxi protected Li Yunyun behind her and said coldly, "Someone is following us."

A rather sturdy masked man laughed and said, "Young lady, why did you stop?"

"Why are you following us?" Ning Ruoxi clenched the magic sword, ready to fight at any time.

Two masked men fell from the flying swords and looked up and down at Ning Ruoxi and Li Yunyun with lustful eyes.

"Young lady, please don't resist. You are only in the middle stage of foundation building. If we two are in the late stage of foundation building, what if we accidentally kill you in a fight?"

"Wouldn't it be fun to practice with us and enjoy the pleasure of love? You don't want to die, do you?"

"Hey hey hey!"

"Rongtang, I want the smaller one." said another thinner masked man.

Rong Tang waved his hand casually, "It's all the same. When you get tired of playing, you can just switch back, right?"

"You really don't take me seriously!" Ning Ruoxi's eyes turned cold and a fierce murderous intent burst out of her body.

Her temperament was originally cold and aloof, and the sudden change startled the two masked men.

"Let's go together. Don't be intimidated by her. We have finally met such a top-notch person. We can't let them go." Rong Tang controlled the flying sword and stabbed towards Ning Ruoxi.

Ning Ruoxi held the magic sword in front of her, and an ice lotus appeared out of thin air in front of her. The coldness made Li Yunyun shiver.

Rong Tang's expression jumped. How could this woman in the middle stage of foundation building know such a terrifying technique? It felt like facing a powerful person in the golden elixir stage.

It must be an illusion. How strong can one be in the middle stage of foundation building?

The flying sword was frozen the moment it touched the ice lotus. Rong Tang felt that the connection between the flying sword and himself had weakened. "Damn it, Li Zhesheng, why don't you take action quickly?"

Li Zhesheng clasped his hands together, spoke confidently, and then slapped Ning Ruoxi. A blazing flame ignited from his hands, and a huge fireball rushed towards Ning Ruoxi.

The huge heat wave burned and deformed the air around it.

The magic sword floated in the air in front of Ning Ruoxi. Ning Ruoxi raised her finger and pointed at the handle of the magic sword. A flash of cold light shone brightly.

A chill visible to the naked eye clung to the blade of the spirit sword. This chill was like a cold dragon, its chill was indescribable.

"Go!" Ning Ruoxi opened her red lips slightly, and the spirit sword rushed towards the fireball like a hot knife through butter. The fireball was shattered at just a glance, and the spirit sword did not stop yet and pierced through Li Zhesheng's body.

Li Zhesheng opened his eyes wide, with an expression of disbelief in his eyes until his death.

Seeing this, Rong Tang turned around and ran away.

Today he really saw a ghost when he went out. If he had known that this woman was so powerful, he would not have dared to have any bad thoughts.

"Did I let you go?" Ning Ruoxi used her spiritual sense to control the magic sword and turned the sword towards Rong Tang to kill.

Rong Tang looked back and quickly dodged on the ground, almost being stabbed by the sword. He stood up again and formed a complex seal with his hands, and a white barrier appeared in front of him. But when the spirit sword attacked, the white barrier shattered like paper, and he still couldn't escape death.

Ning Ruoxi was not at all surprised that she was able to kill two cultivators in the late Foundation Establishment stage by crossing levels.

Lin Shuang had told her that she was a genius, and with the Ice Spirit and Cold Soul Art, a super-heavenly level mental and magical technique, it would be unreasonable for her not to be invincible among those in the same realm.

"Sister Ning, you are so powerful!" Li Yunyun rubbed her eyes. She had never seen such a scene before. It was the first time she saw cultivators fighting.

Ning Ruoxi was very efficient in killing people, and without the blood-spurting scene, Li Yunyun would not be scared.

After dealing with the two, Ning Ruoxi simply cleaned up the spoils. There were more than 300 mid-grade spirit stones and 1,000 low-grade spirit stones, which was not bad.

There were some skills and elixirs in their storage rings, but they didn't look high quality, so Ning Ruoxi wasn't interested. She flew on her sword again and took Li Yunyun back to the Divine Calculation Sect.

Night falls again.

Ning Ruoxi prepared herself and began to practice. With the nourishment of the vast spiritual energy, she successfully broke through to the late stage of foundation building.

"Master, I feel that if I practice like this, I can quickly break through to the Golden Core Stage!" Ning Ruoxi felt the spiritual liquid in her dantian and it was almost full.

"That's right. Not only the Jindan stage, with the spiritual energy condensed by this formation, it won't be a problem for you to break through to the Yuanying stage."

Lin Shuang explained: "Don't listen to those who say that it takes three years to refine Qi, ten years to build a foundation, and a hundred years to make a golden elixir are geniuses."

"This cultivation speed is even slower than that of a dog in the Immortal Realm. It can only be said that ascending to immortality is just a starting point. The previous realms are just minor ones. Some peerless geniuses only spend three years cultivating to the Tribulation Crossing Stage in the Immortal Realm."

"Hiss..." Ning Ruoxi took a breath of cold air. With this comparison, her cultivation speed was no different from that of a turtle.

"Master, how long did it take you to cultivate to the Tribulation Crossing Stage?"

Lin Shuang said nonchalantly: "I am not a native of the Immortal Realm. I also ascended from the Immortal Cultivation Realm through cultivation."

"It took about fifty years! The mental method you practiced was created by me, the Empress, so your practice speed should be even faster."

"But it's not easy to ascend to immortality now, alas..."

"Master, I heard you and Senior Qingfeng talking about the immortal path being sealed. What does that mean?" Ning Ruoxi asked puzzledly.

"The people in the immortal world just don't want the people in the lower world to ascend! But as long as you are strong enough, you can still step onto the heavenly road and open the heavenly gate."

"Why don't you want people to ascend? The ascension of cultivators in the immortal world seems to have nothing to do with cultivators in the fairy world, right?"

Lin Shuang sneered, "It doesn't matter, but what if the one who wants to seal the Heavenly Road is not a cultivator from the Immortal Realm?"

"Not a cultivator from the fairyland?" Ning Ruoxi became more and more confused the more she listened.

"The people in Fengxian Road are just a bunch of running dogs. Disciple, when you ascend to heaven, just kill them all."

Lin Shuang didn't say much more, because saying too much would only add to Ning Ruoxi's troubles.

When the last wisp of spiritual energy drifted back to the sea, Ning Ruoxi also woke up from her cultivation. After the breakthrough, she felt an indescribable sense of comfort all over her body.

The days of hard training were very boring, but Ning Ruoxi could still endure it. I don’t know how Li Yunyun could endure it.
