"Brother Chen Ning, how old are you this year?”Fortunately, Ouyang Xin was born in a big family. Although he was surprised by Chen Ning's cultivation speed, he was still a person who had seen the world. The population of Xuantian Continent was in the trillions, and there were countless geniuses. Ouyang Xin had also heard a little about it and quickly recovered his composure.
Chen Ning didn't know how to answer Ouyang Xin's question. He was 20 years old in his previous life. Because he was in an orphanage, he studied early and had been here for more than a year. After thinking for a while, he said to Ouyang Xin,"Twenty-one years old."
Hearing Chen Ning say that he was 21 years old, Ouyang Xin felt slightly better. He was already a seventh-tier Mystique Adept at 22, but when he thought about how Chen Ning had only cultivated for about ten days, he still felt a little frustrated. It was too much of a blow. After a while, Ouyang Xin seemed to have thought of something and said to Chen Ning,"Brother Chen Ning, I wonder if you have any plans to participate in the examination of our Jason Kingdom Academy next month?”
" What is Jason Kingdom Academy?"
"It can't be, right? You don't even know about the Jason Kingdom Academy?”Upon hearing Chen Ning's words, Ouyang Xin looked at Chen Ning as if he was looking at a monster. There was actually someone who did not know about the existence of Jason Academy in the Jason Kingdom.
Facing Ouyang Xin's incredulous expression, Chen Ning shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.
Seeing that Chen Ning really didn't know and wasn't pretending, Ouyang Xin sighed slightly and said,""Jason Academy is the most famous academy in our Jason Kingdom. Not only do the geniuses from the various cities of our Jason Kingdom study there, but even the royal family of the kingdom studies there. However, it's not easy to enter the Jason Kingdom. You have to reach the mystic cultivator realm before the age of 22 to enter.”He glanced at Chen Ning. Jason Academy would be holding the recruitment ceremony on the 15th of the next month, and Chen Ning was only a sixth level mystic cultivator. No matter how fast his cultivation speed was, it was impossible for him to reach the mystic cultivator realm on the 15th of the next month. After all, the advancement of mystic qi became more and more difficult as it progressed.
Chen Ning pondered for a moment and thought to himself," The 15th of next month? "I wonder if I'll have the chance to enter." Chen Ning knew that what he urgently needed was a good cultivation environment. He believed that as long as he had enough resources, with the Azulet Sword Art and his spiritual awareness, he would definitely not be inferior to others. Seeing Ouyang Xin look at him, he looked at Ouyang Xin and smiled."On the 15th of next month, huh? It seems that I have a chance.”
Seeing that Chen Ning was not discouraged by the fact that he had said that only Xuan Masters could enter Jason Academy, and that it was not entirely impossible for him to enter, Ouyang Xin was stunned at first. Then, he shook his head with a bitter smile. In his opinion, Chen Ning was still too naive. It was very fast for a Xuan Cultivator to break through in the early stages with sufficient resources and talent, but it became very difficult after reaching the tenth level of Xuan Cultivator. However, it was not good to deal a blow to Chen Ning, so he smiled and nodded."Good luck, I believe in you."
Chen Ning smiled at Ouyang Xin's lack of confidence and did not explain further. Sometimes, the best explanation was to wait for you to succeed.
After Ouyang Xin and Chen Ning discussed some cultivation experiences, they left temporarily. The Ouyang family was such a big family, and Ouyang Xin was the eldest son of the family. Naturally, he was busy with work. However, before Ouyang Xin left, he asked Chen Ning to rest in the study room. At night, they would attend the City Lord's daughter's 20th birthday.
After Ouyang Xin left, Chen Ning sat on the chair and pondered for a while. Then, he took out a bag containing magnetite and Demon Cores. Looking at the Demon Cores the size of magnetite and glass beads, Chen Ning could not help but pick up a Level One Demon Core that was suffused with earthy yellow energy. He pondered to himself, wondering if he could use the Demon Core to cultivate. But just as Chen Ning had this thought, Black Panther's words seemed to ring in Chen Ning's ears. The Demon Core contained incomparably violent energy. Anyone who cultivated with the help of demon cores would either have their meridians ruptured or die from Qi deviation. Remember not to absorb them.
"Sigh…"
Just as Chen Ning was about to put the Demon Core into the bag and practice using magnetite, the purple and green lights in Chen Ning's Dantian suddenly flickered as if they had found something delicious. The Demon Core that Chen Ning had put down seemed to be sucked by something. Just as Chen Ning was confused by all this, he suddenly felt a very pure and powerful energy being emitted from the Demon Core, flowing rapidly into his body through his arm. Chen Ning was shocked. He wanted to control the energy from flowing into his body, but he found that he could not control it at all. Chen Ning thought of the two purple-green lights in his Dantian and immediately checked his body. Sure enough, the two flickering purple-green lights in his Dantian were crazily absorbing the energy from the Demon Core. The energy that had fused into his Dantian was continuously refined into a purple gas by the two lights and finally integrated into his meridians.
Chen Ning's face lit up when he noticed the changes in his Dantian. He did not have to worry about the violent energy in the Demon Core that Black Panther had mentioned harming his body, causing his meridians to shatter and his cultivation to go berserk. He could feel his strength gradually increasing. Without hesitation, Chen Ning immediately began to practice the Azulet Sword Scroll. As Chen Ning practiced the Azulet Sword Scroll, the speed at which the Demon Core's energy was integrated into his body increased by several times. The immense energy in the Demon Core was frantically absorbed into Chen Ning's body. The two rays of light in his dantian, one purple and one green, glowed brighter as the enormous energy was injected into his body. The rays of light did not reject any of the energy as they absorbed it crazily.
Time passed quickly. Chen Ning did not know how long he had been cultivating. When he opened his eyes, he saw four clusters of dust of different colors on the ground. These four clusters of dust were the Demon Cores that Chen Ning had absorbed. When all the energy in the Demon Cores was absorbed by Chen Ning, they turned into dust like magnetite.
Chen Ning lowered his head slightly and looked at the golden Fey Core in his hand. Half of the Fey Core's energy had been absorbed by Chen Ning, and the golden energy on it had dimmed a little. It was not as bright as before.
Chen Ning was ecstatic when he felt the purple energy filling his body. He was a Seventh Level Mystical Cultivator. He realized that not only had his cultivation base improved, but the Heaven and Earth Mystical Qi and Mystical Stones he had absorbed previously were all white Mystical Qi. However, after absorbing the energy from the Demon Nucleus, the Mystical Qi produced in his Dantian was purple. Although he did not know what the effect of the purple Mystical Qi was, Chen Ning, who was now filled with purple Mystical Qi, could feel that it was much stronger than the white Mystical Qi from before. How could Chen Ning not be overjoyed by this change? If he wasn't in Ouyang Xin's study, Chen Ning would have laughed out loud.
Chen Ning looked at the dust on the ground after his joy. He waved his right hand and the dust was wrapped up by Chen Ning's Celestial Chi. He then threw it into the trash in Ouyang Xin's study. The whole process was smooth and there was not a single speck of dust on his body.
When Chen Ning opened the door of the study, the sky outside was already filled with the sunset glow. The entire Ouyang Residence was enveloped by the sunset glow, turning it golden." I didn't expect it to be evening already. It seems like it's time to go back."”Chen Ning murmured as he looked at the sunset.
Just as Chen Ning was about to bid farewell to Ouyang Xin and leave, Ouyang Xin walked towards Chen Ning and said,""Brother Chen Ning, what are you doing? Could it be that you blame me for not entertaining you well enough and want to leave?”
Chen Ning turned to look at Ouyang Xin. Ouyang Xin was accompanied by an old man as he spoke to Chen Ning, who was standing at the door of the study. Chen Ning shook his head and looked at Ouyang Xin."That's not the case. I've been cultivating all day and didn't care about the passage of time. It's already late, so I won't waste my time.”After saying that, Chen Ning's gaze fell on the old man who was standing beside Ouyang Xin, and a look of shock appeared on his face. The old man was dressed in black and looked to be in his sixties. He had an ordinary face, but his skin was extremely loose and his face was full of bumps and hollows. However, this was not enough to shock Chen Ning. After all, everyone looked different, so there was nothing strange about it. What shocked Chen Ning was the old man's strength. Now that Chen Ning had reached the Seventh Level of the Mystical Cultivator, He could even sense Ouyang Xin's cultivation base at the Seventh Level of Mystical Stone. However, Chen Ning could not sense anything at all. It was as if he was just an ordinary old man standing in front of Chen Ning. However, Chen Ning was not stupid. How could anyone who could be in the Ouyang Residence be an ordinary person? Even the patrolling guards were at least at the Tenth Level of Mystical Cultivator. The only explanation was that this old man was very strong, so strong that Chen Ning could not see through his cultivation base.
Seeing that Chen Ning was only doing this because of the weather, Ouyang Xin smiled and said,"Brother Chen Ning, then you can't leave. Today is the birthday of the daughter of the Xia City's castellan, and I'm going to the castellan's mansion to attend a banquet.”After saying that, Chen Ning looked at the old man beside him and paused for a moment before continuing,"Brother Chen Ning, this is an elder of the Ouyang family. His name is Elder Chang.”Then, he introduced Chen Ning to Elder Chang.
Chen Ning knew how powerful the old man was and how friendly Ouyang Xin was to him. Naturally, he did not dare to be arrogant. He smiled politely at Elder Chang and said,"Greetings, Elder Chang. Junior Chen Ning greets you.”
Elder Chang did not put on airs just because he was Ouyang Xin's elder. He replied to Chen Ning,""Ouyang, this child, mentioned you to me just now. I remember Ouyang Xin saying that you were only a sixth level cultivator. Why do I see that you are already a seventh level cultivator?”After he finished speaking, he looked at Chen Ning with a smile on his relaxed face. However, Elder Chang's looks were really not to be complimented. It would be fine if he did not smile, but his smile reminded Chen Ning of Meng Po, who she had seen on television in her previous life. It was a little strange.
"What is it? Chen Ning, what Elder Chang said was true. You're a seventh level cultivator?”
After hearing what Elder Chang had to say, Ouyang Xin looked as if he had seen a ghost and turned pale with fright.
Seeing Ouyang Xin's reaction, Chen Ning couldn't help but laugh and nod."I was lucky and broke through." After saying that, he didn't care about Ouyang Xin's expression. He paused for a moment and continued with some difficulty,"Young Master Ouyang, I won't be going to the birthday of City Lord Xia's daughter. After all, I don't know her.”
"Hahaha, Brother Chen Ning, you have to go. Guan Jie will be there today too. We'll give him a good beating then.”Ouyang Xin pulled Chen Ning's arm and looked at Chen Ning with a sly smile.
Chen Ning suddenly felt a headache coming on. To be honest, Chen Ning really didn't want to attend this so-called birthday of the City Lord's daughter. Although the City Lord had great power in the Heaven's Wall City, he had nothing to do with him. He really didn't want to waste time. If he had time, he would rather go back to the inn to cultivate. However, when he saw Ouyang Xin pulling his arm, especially when Ouyang Xin was afraid that he wouldn't go, he even tried to goad him. He shook his head helplessly and said,"Alright, you've already goaded me. What else can I do?”Ouyang Xin burst into laughter as soon as Chen Ning finished speaking. He pulled Chen Ning out of the Ouyang Residence. Elder Chang, who was following behind them, had a glint in his eyes. He watched Chen Ning and Ouyang Xin walk intimately in front of him with a mysterious smile on his face. He did not say anything.
When Chen Ning and Ouyang Xin arrived at the entrance of the Ouyang Residence, there were already more than ten carriages parked at the entrance. Other than Ouyang Xin's carriage in the front, the rest of the carriages were filled with countless treasures and treasures. In fact, although it was the birthday of the daughter of the City Lord, it was also an opportunity for the big and small families of the Heaven's Wall City to curry favor with the City Lord. As one of the eight great families of the Heaven's Wall City, the Ouyang family naturally knew the benefits and disadvantages. One could imagine how many gifts they had.
The City Lord's Mansion was located in the center of the Heaven's Wall City. When Chen Ning and Ouyang Xin arrived at the entrance of the City Lord's Mansion and got off the carriage, Chen Ning's eyes were filled with shock when he saw the City Lord's Mansion. This was not a mansion, but a small castle. The streets in front of the City Lord's Mansion were already filled with birthday banners. At this moment, the entrance of the City Lord's Mansion was filled with the sound of bronze sparrows. It was extremely lively. An endless fleet of carriages was waiting at the door to give gifts. The carriages were all loaded with rare treasures or large amounts of cultivation resources. There was a large number of fully armed soldiers patrolling at the entrance of the city lord's mansion. From the aura emitted by their bodies, the lowest was a mystic cultivator. Their plastic surgery could not be said to be small.
Soon, Ouyang Xin entered the City Lord's Mansion through a special passage. After all, it was the Ouyang Family, one of the eight great families of Heaven's Wall City. Naturally, it was impossible for them to queue up at the entrance like the other second-rate families. When they entered the inner hall of the City Lord's Mansion, Ouyang Xin met many familiar faces and began to greet Chen Ning one after another. There was no other way. Although Chen Ning hated such polite words, he could not refuse Ouyang Xin's invitation. Chen Ning also got to know many of the so-called nobles in the Heaven's Wall City under Ouyang Xin's introduction. Among them, there were many young masters and young ladies who were about the same age as Chen Ning and Ouyang Xin. Although these people were polite to Ouyang Xin, when Ouyang Xin introduced Chen Ning, he only said that Chen Ning was a private friend of his. Therefore, these people naturally did not care about Chen Ning. Otherwise, Chen Ning would not care about it at all, and it would save a lot of trouble.
Soon after Ouyang Xin greeted them, he and Chen Ning arrived at a splendid dining area. There were only eight tables here, which were obviously reserved for the eight great clans of Heaven's Wall City. The seats were also very close to the front. When Chen Ning and Ouyang Xin arrived at the table of the Ouyang family, Chen Ning saw a familiar face. It was the young master of the butler, Guan Jie. When Guan Jie saw Chen Ning and Ouyang Xin walk in, the smile on Guan Jie's face, which was originally greeting the other clans, suddenly changed. His eyes were fixed on Chen Ning and Ouyang Xin. The anger in his eyes was so obvious that he was about to spit fire.
