Chapter 3, Clan Members

Before Qin Ning could speak, the old man sighed and said: "Just listen to me, my time is limited. I can no longer force myself to expend energy. Fortunately, I have not truly become food for the Abyssal beings, and for that, I am grateful"

Qin Ning was completely unaware of the details of this technique; it was the first time he learned about it from this old man. What he did not expect was that this technique required continuous deduction.

Qin Ning was aware of his situation; currently, his combat strength was merely at the seventh level of Qi Refinement. If he were to encounter a master of the opposing side, it was likely that with his limited cultivation, he would be instantly killed by his opponent.

Still claiming it is the Five Elements Magic Skill

Although the exchanges with those talents were brief, the efforts made to protect what one has done deeply moved Qin Ning

The Abyssal People and I, the Blue Star People, are sworn enemies. In the past, they were suppressed by us, the Blue Star People. Now, it seems there are problems from top to bottom, and we, the Blue Star People, have also fallen into decline. I do not know what has happened, but this matter is definitely not of this level; rather, it is an issue that has arisen at a higher level!

... ...

It seems that the Five Elements Magic Technique is not the kind of practice that instills fear in everyone. After practicing the Five Animal Technique taught by that mysterious person, I did not experience the sensation of my consciousness being entranced. The only notable difference is that my desires have indeed intensified significantly; however, I am still able to maintain self-control, so it is not a major issue.

As he spoke, the old man kept shaking his head

Still want to eat people

Without waiting for Qin Ning to speak, he directly took out an object that resembled a device, which appeared to be the size of a mobile phone. He had Qin Ning register on it, and then proceeded to transfer some assets, moving all his belongings into Qin Ning's account. He then removed a concealed ring and handed it to Qin Ning.

With a sigh, the old man said: "This type of cultivation method has actually been practiced by too many people, and without exception, they all ultimately fell into depravity due to the nature of the method, ending up with no place to be buried. Because this method can influence one's character, whenever someone is found practicing such a technique, their dantian will be destroyed, and their cultivation will be rendered useless. I don't know how you ended up practicing such a method!"

Draw your sword

Even so, Qin Ning showed no signs of retreat; instead, he wielded his large blade with even greater precision.

No, I must go take a look

The combat power of a seventh-layer refiner poses no resistance at all to these individuals at the peak of the sixth-layer Qi refining. In the shortest amount of time, six Abyssal beings had already fallen before Qin Ning.

Upon seeing the time, Qin Ning was surprised to find that it was an elder from his clan, and he had not expected that he was still alive

Running across the wilderness, the first step covered several zhang in distance

I remembered!

Click!

The other Abyssal beings, witnessing their kin fall to Qin Ning's blade, shouted and rushed towards Qin Ning.

Soon, Qin Ning arrived at a nearby location and first used his spiritual sense to probe the area, but there was no response at all in his spiritual sense.

Finding a secluded spot, Qin Ning set the old man down

Seeing that the other party was not dead, Qin Ning said nothing further, lifted the old man onto his shoulder, and then soared into the distance.

This is completely incomparable to that galloping.

Although not a part of this world, having walked alongside these individuals for a long time, Qin Ning's heart was filled with grief and indignation as he witnessed them fall into a pool of blood

A fierce wind rushes towards me, and a powerful aura strikes my body

After saying this, the old man sat there cross-legged, a faint smile appearing on his face, and unexpectedly passed away peacefully.

A place filled with severed limbs and broken arms, blood gushing everywhere

The old man quickly took out some items from the ring and set up a large formation right here

Qin Ning repeated the same action, and the entire person had already fallen into madness

Kill

Senior, are you alright

As Qin Ning was pondering this matter, the old man's eyes sparkled as he looked at Qin Ning and said: "Do you know why we are willing to risk our lives to protect you? You must understand that our clan's experts are dwindling, and the highest cultivation level we have now is merely that of a Nascent Soul stage expert. The biggest issue is that we have lost our inheritance; our cultivation techniques have been severed. Therefore, since you are able to cultivate the Five Elements Demon Technique, that represents a glimmer of hope. I hope you can remain steadfast in your heart and continue to develop this Five Elements Demon Technique."

What exactly is the reason that has led to this situation here

Thinking of this, Qin Ning cautiously approached closer

However, since integrating with the essence soil and receiving the modified content from that mysterious figure, Qin Ning realized that the cultivation method he was practicing was indeed the correct one

Ah!

With a swift swing of the large blade, Qin Ning leaped up from his concealed position and struck down at a Abyssal being at the fifth level of Qi Refinement.

In Qin Ning's memory, there is only one thing she knows, which is that a major incident occurred within the Blue Star Clan. It was due to an unexpected event that the entire race began to decline.

At this moment, Qin Ning no longer thought about his own safety. Regarding these man-eating abyss dwellers, he could find no other thought in his heart except to eliminate them all.

After looking at Qin Ning for a while, the old man slightly nodded and said, "I never expected that you would actually master the Five Elements Magic Technique! Remarkably, you have not lost yourself in the process!"

Suddenly, a voice emerged from the crowd of people

Having contemplated the cruelty of the Abyssal beings, I never expected that such cruelty would manifest in this way, leading directly to a large-scale massacre

The old man said weakly at that moment

Qin Ning is a principled person who never backs down from decisions once they are made

At this point, the old man looked at Qin Ning again and said: "Originally, given your level of cultivation, you should not be aware of certain matters. However, there is no other way now; I am nearing death. There is a special space that serves as a pathway to the Dao of Heaven, which requires an account to enter. I will guide you into it, hoping that you can make good use of the power of that space"

Although there are only three moves, each one is filled with lethal intent, and every strike is a deadly technique.

Thinking of this, Qin Ning also remembered that he had a younger sister at home. However, his sister was a prodigy in cultivation and was already at the seventh level of Qi Refinement.

The race has declined, and the invading foreign tribes are increasing in number. After years of warfare, everywhere is engulfed in flames of battle, and everywhere is marked by decay

With the sound of the other party's screams, Qin Ning's blade directly severed the head of the person at the fifth level of Qi Refinement.

Reaching the fifth level of Qi Refinement allows one to traverse the skies, and Qin Ning has just attained this level. Of course, Qin Ning's combat power has already reached the seventh level of Qi Refinement, making aerial flight a trivial matter for him

The ground was soaked with the blood of his kin, and in such an environment, a surge of murderous intent welled up within Qin Ning

As the old man set up this formation, the place had completely transformed; it was still that barren land, and one could not see the people inside at all

Slay

The Five Animal Frolics circulate rapidly within the body, while the immense energy from the sky continuously enters the body

Draw the sword

Even so, one must absolutely not back down

Looking at the old man who sat there, having lost all breath, Qin Ning's mind was filled with too many questions. Regarding this old man, Qin Ning felt a deep sense of respect; he was a venerable elder.

Although the old man had teleported himself, upon observing the surroundings, it seemed he had not gone too far. Qin Ning then flew towards the direction of the mountain that felt somewhat familiar to him

At this moment, Qin Ning was finally observing the scenery of this world with seriousness for the first time

Stop, I will set up a formation; there are a few words I need to say to you

As the bird-like form unfolded, Qin Ning realized that he could truly navigate through the air.

Qin Ning now recalls the situation of his cultivation. At that time, the technique he obtained did not specify that it was a Five Elements Demonic Art. Moreover, his progress in cultivation was rapid, which led him to fall into this trap.

After flying through the air for a while, Qin Ning quickly mastered this method of flight and cautiously headed towards the direction where those clansmen were located

Is this really the realm of cultivation?

It is evident that those Abyss experts, after killing these individuals, are searching for themselves in various places. What remains here are only a few individuals of lower cultivation, who are in the process of transporting the bodies

Qin Ning felt that her cultivation was also rapidly advancing

Thinking about having killed someone and then leaving, while those people remained there, Qin Ning felt increasingly concerned about the safety of those individuals

At that moment, the old man aged instantly, and his entire being had withered away

Leaving one's kin to suffer while escaping oneself is something Qin Ning felt he could not do

Qin Ning nodded slightly, feeling puzzled about these matters. It was evident that this decline had been ongoing for a long time.

It is not good, they are in danger

Although he is a senior of the same clan, Qin Ning can only be addressed in this manner

Looking again at those familiar faces, Qin Ning's mind was a blank.

Ruined walls and broken walls, with red earth and withered trees, the aura contained in the inhaled breath is extremely scarce

What kind of events have transpired

The Blue Star Clan is a vast race, within which there are numerous families. The Qin family is one of the smaller families among the many families of the Blue Star Clan

It turns out that a method of consuming energy was used to forcibly enhance one's cultivation level

A more powerful consciousness emanated from afar

They won't get into any trouble

Due to excitement, the old man's face flushed with a red tide

Seeing the situation around him, Qin Ning recalled the incident when the old man had teleported him away

With a sigh, the old man said: "I have seen your combat capabilities; killing someone at the seventh level of Qi Refinement is no longer a problem. Now that our Blue Star clan has significantly fewer experts, having one more strong individual can secure more development opportunities for our clan. I hope you can go further and not lose yourself!"

There are not many tricks; the only thing is the sword techniques memorized in my mind, consisting solely of three moves: drawing the sword, striking, and killing.

Qin Ning knew that the experts from the Abyss were searching for him everywhere

The image of that beautiful fiancée resurfaced in my mind; it was she who encouraged me to cultivate myself

Although the entire land appears barren, the condition of those ruins still reveals that this place was once thriving

Qin Ning was completely unaware of the situation; he only felt that after completing the registration, his consciousness had entered a special space.

After greeting Qin Ning and entering the formation, the old man began to breathe heavily.

Indeed, this matter of leakage is fatal! All I can do is this!

Qin Ning, let's go quickly

"Is the Five Elements Magic so terrifying?" Qin Ning couldn't help but ask.

Qin Ning has long mastered the Five Animal Play. After experiencing some changes in his body, he has discovered a significant improvement in the application of the movements of the Five Animal Play.

I will help you leave

It is truly a scene of mountains of corpses and seas of blood

Qin Ning also understood the reason why the old man still possessed his cultivation

You are practicing the Five Elements Magic Technique, which carries a great deal of uncertainty. The most significant issue is that each time you seek to break through, you must undergo a formidable trial of desire, specifically the trial of fire. If your mind is not stable, your consciousness can easily become lost, leading you down a path of evil. This is the hidden danger of practicing this technique. Furthermore, this technique is not a complete one; it is merely an exploratory path of cultivation. The entire technique can only reach the Foundation Establishment stage, and advancing further requires you to conduct your own deductions.

Although he was unable to save his clansmen, seeing the old man alive brought joy to Qin Ning's heart

Upon a closer look, I saw several Abyssal beings inside moving corpses into a storage bag

Enemy attack! Enemy attack!

Qin Ning understood that if it were not for the peculiar nature of his Five Animal Play in absorbing spiritual energy, being in such a place might make it even more difficult to capture spiritual energy than on Earth

The situation before Qin Ning suddenly left him stunned

A memory surfaced in Qin Ning's mind, as powerful beings forcibly extracted strands of spiritual veins from the earth
