Longevity Thunder Ancestor

Chapter 374 Divination
In an ordinary residence on Gray Sand Island.

A young girl in an apricot-yellow skirt stood at the door, her face full of nervousness as she listened carefully to the movements around her.

Hearing the loud bombardment coming from outside and feeling the obvious vibration, the girl couldn't help but be frightened and her face turned pale.

She hurried back into the house.

I saw an old Taoist in a gray cloth gown eating heartily in the house.

The table was filled with fine wine and delicious food. The old Taoist held a chicken in his left hand and a duck in his right hand. He was eating with his mouth full of oil, enjoying himself very much.

He doesn't have the demeanor of a monk at all.

What was striking was that his long gown was full of patches, his hair was grey and messy, and he looked like someone who had been poor for a long time.

"Master, Master! It's bad, the enemy's attack outside is getting more intense!"

The girl in the yellow skirt spoke to the old Taoist anxiously.

The girl was about 28 years old, with picturesque eyebrows, a face as white as porcelain, and a pretty and bright appearance.

She pouted and said angrily, "Master, it's all your fault for coming here to eat and drink for free. Now the Ning family has been attacked, and we are unlucky too. We can't escape now."

The old Taoist pretended not to hear and continued to drink from the glass of wine.

The girl snatched his glass angrily.

"You are in such a dire situation, Master, and you can still eat!"

The girl put her hands on her hips and spoke angrily.

"You little girl, you really don't know how to respect your teacher."

The old Taoist wiped his mouth with an unsatisfied look, looking like he had no idea what to do with the girl.

He rubbed his stomach as if he was a bit full, and said calmly, "Why rush? The Ning family can still hold on for at least ten days. It's still early."

If Ning Zhongyuan were here, he would definitely be shocked.

Because this old Taoist priest, who seemed to be even poorer than the average casual cultivator, actually told the exact time the formation would last.

But after the Taoist priest finished speaking, his expression changed.

He sat up straight, his expression began to become serious, he raised his right hand, and kept moving his five fingers, with wisps of gray lingering between his fingers.

After a long while, he put down his right hand and frowned, "It may not last for ten days. It seems that the Ning family has to make a heroic move, just within one or two days. In such a short time, I don't know if that person can arrive in time."

"Master, you are telling the truth again! If you hadn't made a mistake in your divination for others and were being hunted, we wouldn't have fled to Black Water! And you said you came here specifically to look for someone, I don't believe your lies!"

The girl in the yellow skirt looked at him with some contempt and spoke angrily.

The old Taoist suddenly looked weak, and he coughed dryly: "What do you know, little girl? Divination is a profound and mysterious art with countless connections. Although I have made mistakes occasionally, this time, I will definitely not make a mistake!"

The girl in the yellow skirt curled her lips, looking as if she didn't believe it at all.

The old Taoist, feeling greatly humiliated, glared at her fiercely, then ignored her and continued to eat heartily.

……

That night.

The Ning family’s enemies launched another fierce attack, and this time the offensive was unprecedented.

A gigantic golden lizard with a body length of dozens of feet suddenly appeared. It was as big as a hill, and its body was covered with golden scales as big as water tanks.

Every time it struck, the black tortoise transformed by the formation would vibrate violently.

The black tortoise had to concentrate most of its strength to defend against the golden giant lizard.

However, more than a dozen enemy foundation-building monks swarmed forward and launched a powerful attack without caring about the loss of their vitality.

Ning Zhongyuan also tried his best to stimulate the last spiritual energy of the spiritual veins of Huisha Island, increasing the power of the formation to the maximum. Many members of the Ning and Qian families also knew that it was a matter of life and death, and they fought hard.

The battle lasted for several hours, and finally a spiritual weapon in the shape of a small golden bell exploded in front of the golden giant lizard.

Under the impact of the extremely powerful spiritual power, the golden giant lizard finally couldn't hold on and fell to the ground.

The big man in black armor put the beast away with a look of regret on his face, and stared at Ning Zhongyuan in the distance with cold eyes.

"Old Ning! Your only spiritual weapon is gone now. I wonder how long you can hold on!"

The enemy retreated for the time being.

Ning Zhongyuan's body shook and he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood, his face as pale as paper.

He looked at Ning Zhongjiu and Ning Shaohong and whispered, "Now, let's go!"

Ning Zhongjiu looked at him deeply, his eyes turned red, then he bowed deeply, and flew in one direction without looking back.

Ning Shaohong burst into tears. She took one last look at Ning Zhongyuan and Ning Hongye and left resolutely.

The Qian family's foundation-building cultivator wiped the blood off his face, bowed to the two of them, and hurried away.

Ning Zhongyuan looked at Ning Hongye and sighed: "Hongye, you won't blame me, will you?"

Ning Hongye shook his head: "I am already half disabled and have no potential, so it is naturally not suitable for me to leave."

Ning Zhongyuan sighed, his face full of bitterness.

Enemy camp.

The face of the big man in black armor was as gloomy as water. He suddenly looked at the beautiful woman in blue skirt and the Taoist in yellow robe.

The two men looked helpless, but they could only bow and leave quietly.

The big man in black armor sighed, his eyes full of regret.

And on a seemingly ordinary small valley dozens of miles away from this camp.

Several black-robed monks were hiding among them.

There was a rusty bronze mirror floating in front of them, which emitted a curtain of light, and in the curtain of light was the scene near the formation.

One of the black-robed monks, who was as thin as a bamboo pole and covered his face, said with a flashing look in his eyes: "The Ning family is in such a crisis of extinction, and Ning Daozhen didn't come. It seems that he will never come back."

"It's also possible that he didn't get the news, or he's still on the way. Didn't the other two members of the Ning family also not make it back?"

A short and stocky monk next to him shook his head.

"If you ask me, it's completely meaningless for you to just sit here and wait for something to happen. Even if Ning Dao is really nearby, he probably won't make a move."

Another chubby monk curled his lips and said.

If Ning Fa was here, he would definitely be shocked, because this person was none other than the extremely well-informed Cao Xian, Senior Brother Cao.

"Oh? Commander Cao, why do you think so?"

A deep and pleasant female voice sounded, and a woman in black among the crowd asked.

Although most of this woman's face was covered by a black veil, just from her exquisite figure and eyes as bright as the moonlight, one could tell that she must be a rare beauty.

Seeing this woman speaking, County Cao's expression suddenly became respectful, and he replied: "Master Qi, we can't treat Ning Daozhen as a normal member of the Ning family. Don't forget that he is suspected to be the descendant of the Blood Sky Sect, and the Blood Sky Sect was the first demon sect in Cangyuan. Have you ever seen a demon sect descendant who would miss family affection and bloodline?"

As soon as Cao Xian said this, the expressions of the people around him suddenly changed.

The woman surnamed Qi nodded, then looked at Cao Xian with interest and asked, "So, Commander Cao, if the people from the Demonic Alliance got wind of the news, how would they use the Ning family to capture Ning Daozhen?"
