Chapter 429 -90: Two Fifth Grade Enemies, The Divine Object! (Vote for monthly ticket!!)_2

But those methods could not be lightly exposed to the public eye.

That was his true reliance.

Only by hiding those methods would his enemies judge his strength solely based on his realm, thus underestimating his capabilities and power.

In this way, he would catch those careless people off guard easily.

So, he chose to leave the courtyard and draw the two men towards the surface of Luoshui Lake.

Choosing a place rarely trodden for the battlefield allowed him to have few concerns; he could unleash his techniques to his heart’s content.

Moreover, at this point, he was also eager to find a suitable opponent to measure his strength against; once he freed himself from the constraints, how would his power levels actually stack up?

The two men from the God Worship Sect were just right, based on his prior understanding of the sect’s members.

From the two men’s conversation, he knew their status and level within the God Worship Sect.

One was a protector, and the other was a Divine Envoy, highly respected by the protector.

When the Inspection Office had issued the task of eradicating the God Worship Sect, he obtained intelligence on the sect.

According to that intelligence.

The highest positions in the God Worship Sect were a head and a deputy sect leader.

The intelligence estimated that the strength of these two sect leaders was at the peak of Fifth Grade,

the same level as Lu Qingshan, the Valley Master of Medicine King Valley.

Their Inner Breath was condensed into Gang, capable of slaying thousands with a single breath, the peak of Fifth Grade.

Additionally, the report pointed out that one of the sect leaders might have crossed the Great Success of Fifth Grade, stepping into the Martial Arts Fourth Grade.

Below these two leaders were the Four Great Guardian Gods.

Wind, Fire, Mountain, Forest — these four Venerate Gods.

Compared to the detailed information of the two sect leaders, which was sparse, the intelligence about these four Honorable Gods was much more extensive and clear.

Among these four Honorable Gods,

the strongest was the Fire Venerate God, also known within the sect as the Fire God Envoy.

But this person had only achieved Fifth Grade Internal Strength Great Success, with the intelligence highlighting the phrase “Inner Breath like an ocean.”

The other three Honorable Gods were a notch weaker, also at Fifth Grade Internal Strength Great Success, with Inner Breath reaching the level of a river.

His own Inner Breath was also at the level of a river.

Below these four Honorable Gods were the protectors.

In terms of Martial Arts grading, there wasn’t a significant gap between the ordinary protectors and the Honorable Gods within the God Worship Sect.

They were typically at the level of the Fifth Grade Internal Strength Realm, which constituted the main combat power of the sect.

The biggest difference between an ordinary protector and an Honorable God lay in their transformation into Divine Descendants.

Honorable Gods received the blood baptism from the deity worshipped by the God Worship Sect, absorbing the power of its blood.

Transforming into a Divine Descendant would manifest as a creature with four legs and Six Arms.

So from the recent conversation of the two, Jiang Ning also roughly knew the strength of those who secretly wanted to kill him.

One Honorable God, the Wind God Envoy.

One ordinary protector, Guardian Xing.

Then, the strength of both was at the Fifth Grade Internal Strength Realm.

He was currently only at the Sixth Grade Xuan Bone Realm, but as he cultivated both internally and externally, his Inner Breath had reached the vast level of an ocean.

Compared to the Wind God Envoy, he was not at a disadvantage.

The only difference lay in physical strength.

The first four grades of Martial Arts were about refining the flesh, sinews, and bones.

He had only just achieved the Xuan Bone and had not yet turned it into a Jade Bone.

And any formidable fighter at the Fifth Grade Internal Strength Realm had already cast Jade Bones, although not having achieved Perfection and an unyielding body, their cultivation techniques were substantially advanced.

Therefore, in terms of physical strength, both the Wind God Envoy and Guardian Xing were a small step ahead of him.

But Jiang Ning was not afraid in his heart.

After all, his strength could not be measured by the levels of Martial Arts alone.

After diligently practicing the Cultivation Technique and overcoming several Break Limits, his foundation had become very deep.

The next moment.

Sensing the movement of the two men following him, Jiang Ning raised his hand and swung; Inner Breath burst forth, and a section of bamboo behind him fell to the ground instantly.

A kilometer away, silently tracking them, the two saw this scene, and the pupils of the Wind God Envoy tightened again.

“Internal and external cultivation, Inner Breath condensing into reality!”

Compared to the surprise of the Wind God Envoy, the expression of Guardian Xing did not change at all.

That day, when Jiang Ning eradicated a God Worship Sect stronghold, he had witnessed Jiang Ning’s method of internal and external cultivation.

That was also the reason he chose to retreat that day.

Martial Arts Sixth Grade, cultivated both internally and externally.

Once engaged in combat, although not as strong as him, Jiang Ning would not be easily defeated in a short time.

If the confrontation dragged on for too long and the Inspection Office’s top masters, the Commanders, arrived, it would be hard for him to escape being outnumbered.

If Hong Minghu arrived, even the possibility of escape would become slim.

At that time, after weighing the pros and cons, he chose to retreat and abandon that stronghold.

…

Over the vast expanse of the Luoshui River.

Jiang Ning was riding on a long bamboo pole, rapidly gliding forward across the snowy terrain.

At this moment, he seemed to be steering a boat cutting through the waves, heading for the desolate island in the middle of the lake.

The two people following closely behind him glided over the ice like ghosts.

Their powerful Inner Breath enabled their movement technique to reach a level almost indistinguishable from walking on snow without a trace.

After a long while,

Jiang Ning could already see the snow-covered desolate island in his sight.

At this time, the desolate island, besides the vast expanse of snow, only had bare trees, devoid of a hint of greenery.

Seeing the familiar desolate island, Jiang Ning couldn’t help but smile.

“They sure have patience!”

The two behind him, always trailing a kilometer behind him.

They had nearly merged with the snow, and if not for his exceptional sight, it would have been impossible to detect their presence.

Their patience had truly surpassed his expectations.

You see, by now he was very far from the shores of Luoshui.

Even if there was a great commotion here, it would be impossible for anyone at the Luoshui banks or Luoshui County to notice any disturbance here.

He had originally thought that the two would not be able to hold back and would have chosen to strike at him on the way.

Yet, he hadn’t expected that their patience would run so deep.

They were even more patient than him!

“You all have patience, but I’m running out of it!”

Jiang Ning looked ahead at the towering and smooth cliffs, his gaze suddenly focused.

This place was the battlefield he had chosen.

After sensing the Divinity contained within that finger, along with its attraction to him,

he had made his decision early on.

He must seize that finger to attempt and see if it could indeed be of great help to him.

This was very important.

Because if things were as he anticipated,

then he was destined to have a battle with that Blood and Flesh God in the future.

A war for Divine Authority.

For a Divine Position, only one can exist.

If so, then he and that Blood and Flesh God were natural arch-enemies, bound for a fight to the death!!

Thinking this, Jiang Ning couldn’t help but glance back one more time.

Even though the two behind him were blending in with the surroundings, his powerful sight still locked onto their silhouettes.

At this time, the two people behind him were still hanging a kilometer away.

Even as they passed over the snow, they only left a very faint layer of footprints.

Without a careful look, it would be impossible to find the traces they had left.

Giving them a quick glance, Jiang Ning then withdrew his gaze.

…

Behind him.

“Have we been discovered?” the Wind God Envoy muttered with a slight focus in his eyes.

Even though there was still a kilometer gap between him and Jiang Ning, he clearly felt that Jiang Ning’s gaze, which looked back, landed directly on him without any evasion.

At his level of strength, his powerful sixth sense was something he never doubted.

“Discovered? Impossible, right?” Guardian Xing beside him revealed a look of surprise.

“Nine times out of ten!” The Wind God Envoy spoke as he looked at Jiang Ning’s retreating figure.

Afterward,

he saw Jiang Ning stepping on a bamboo pole, arriving in front of the clear reef of the desolate island.

The next moment,

Jiang Ning abandoned the bamboo pole under his feet and leaped into the air, soaring up towards the smooth cliff like a great roc spreading its wings.

“Such a marvelous movement technique!” the Wind God Envoy exclaimed again.

He was named after the wind precisely because he was extremely skilled in movement techniques.

Among those of equal cultivation level, his movement technique was said to be unmatched.

But even after witnessing Jiang Ning’s technique, he couldn’t help but be filled with admiration.

Such movement, resembling a roc soaring high, would not be much different even if it were he doing it.

And what was his strength?

Peak of Fifth Grade, Inner Breath as vast as an ocean,

furthermore, having undergone the baptism of a God’s blood, becoming a high and mighty Divine Descendant.

In the future, as that God continued to condense Divinity and Authority, reclaiming its Divine Position, he too would secure the status of a Grandmaster.

To him, Jiang Ning was merely a junior, yet in terms of movement technique, he was almost his equal!

That was the reason he was not in a hurry to make his move.

With such outstanding movement,

and relying on the foundation of combining inner and outer refining, if Jiang Ning decided to flee wholeheartedly, he couldn’t guarantee that he would be able to kill him completely in a short time.

That is exactly why he didn’t rush to take action.

The deeper they went into the center of the lake, the further they were from Luoshui County, therefore the larger the space for a pursuit became.
