Chapter 198: Another All Attribute Dao Weapon

‘Twenty-second step…’

Xu Ning adjusted his breathing and stepped forward.

‘Here he comes!’

Chu Yeyang watched Xu Ning walk up the stairs.

Swoosh!

Before Xu Ning could stabilize himself, Chu Yeyang activated his dao knife and slashed at Xu Ning.

‘What’s going on?’

Xu Ning suddenly felt a knife flash in front of his eyes.

‘There are people here?!’

Xu Ning couldn’t react at all. He was under the impression that he was the only one in the mystic realm.

But now, there was a young man in green with a fierce look in his eyes in front of him. He waved a short knife and slashed at his throat.

Almost instinctively, a fiery red armor appeared in front of Xu Ning, blocking the knife.

But at the same time, Chu Yeyang was also prepared for this. After seeing that his sneak attack was not successful, he kicked.

In an instant, Xu Ning made a judgment.

He did not immediately fight back, instead he took the initiative to retreat two steps, returning to the twentieth step.

‘Huh?’

Chu Yeyang didn’t expect Xu Ning to take the initiative to retreat.

It turned out that according to Chu Yeyang’s plan, Xu Ning would either be slashed to death or be kicked to the bottom of the void stairs. But from the looks of it, the effect was far from what he had initially expected.

‘Should I take the initiative to walk down the stairs and chase after him?’

This thought appeared in Chu Yeyang’s mind as he hesitated.

However, as he was thinking, Chu Yeyang quickly realized what was going on.

The person just now was retreating in order to accumulate more momentum and charge towards him again.

‘Is he trying to kill me?’

This thought subconsciously appeared in Chu Yeyang’s mind.

However, he didn’t have time to think anymore, as Xu Ning instantly crossed the twenty-first step and returned to the twenty-second step.

The two looked at each other again.

Chu Yeyang quickly activated his short blade to block it.

‘The surrounding pressure makes it impossible for me to use my full strength!’

Chu Yeyang felt that his attacks were being restricted. His true qi, true intent, and attribute power were all constantly suppressed.

‘Attribute domain!’

After Xu Ning returned to the twenty-second step, he activated the bracer dao weapon and wrapped his domain around Chu Yeyang.

Although his attribute domain was weakened on the void stairs, it was enough to deal with this person.

‘Not good!’

The moment he was covered by Xu Ning’s dual attribute domain, Chu Yeyang immediately realized the danger he was in.

‘A true domain realm martial artist with a dao weapon!’

Chu Yeyang’s expression changed drastically and his attitude instantly changed. “Sir, I…”

Xu Ning didn’t give him a chance to explain. Four sword seals instantly descended from his dual attribute domain.

With the help of his attribute domain, the sword seals had almost become solid.

Two of the sword seals pierced through Chu Yeyang’s left and right shoulders, while the other two swords pierced through Chu Yeyang’s legs and knees, causing him to lose his mobility.

Afterwards, Xu Ning grabbed Chu Yeyang’s dao weapon and injected true qi and attribute power into it, erasing Chu Yeyang’s manipulation mark.

For Xu Ning, it was easy to instantly erase the manipulation mark left behind by a true intent realm martial artist.

‘It’s a dao weapon with all attributes?’

After Xu Ning erased the manipulation mark, he realized that this short knife was a dao weapon with all attributes.

‘An eighth stage true intent realm possessing a dao weapon with all attributes. It seems that this person’s identity is not simple…’

Not everyone was Xu Ning. Those who could hold a dao weapon with all attributes before reaching the void realm ninth stage were highly likely to be people who were being supported by a huge amount of resources.

“Who are you? Why did you attack me?”

Xu Ning placed a temporary manipulation mark in the short knife dao weapon and aimed the knife at Chu Yeyang.

The roles of the two sides completely changed. Chu Yeyang, the attacker, became Xu Ning’s prisoner.

‘Oh no, Chu Yeyang has been captured!’

Fang Lixing and Jian Li’s expressions changed.

After seeing Xu Ning easily capture Chu Yeyang, Jian Li felt a huge sense of danger.

‘To be able to fight back against Chu Yeyang, this person must be a half-step dao realm master, or a void realm ninth stage martial artist with a dao weapon. In fact, this person might even be a half-step dao realm master with a dao weapon…’

Jian Li knew very well that she was just a true intent realm martial artist with a dao weapon. It was only because her comprehension of secret techniques was deeper that she was ahead of Chu Yeyang. Faced with this newly appeared person, she would definitely be easily dealt with.

Seeing this, Jian Li gritted her teeth, looked up at the gray fog in front of her, and continued to walk upwards.

As for Fang Lixing, he also stopped resting and continued to climb.

“Tell me, who are you, and why are you here?”

After seeing that Chu Yeyang did not respond immediately, Xu Ning stabbed the short knife in his hand into his throat.

As long as he advanced another inch, or activated his true qi or attribute power slightly, Chu Yeyang would die on the spot.

“Stop! Stop!”

Chu Yeyang wanted to take a roundabout route, but seeing how decisive and ruthless the person in front of him was, he knew that he was not the merciful type.

Playing mind games in front of this kind of person was simply suicide.

“I am Chu Yeyang, a member of the Chu family in State Luye.”

Chu Yeyang quickly explained, not daring to hide anything.

He knew that if he lied to this person, he would immediately die.

“A family from State Luye?”

Xu Ning raised his eyebrows.

Although he didn’t know much about the Chu family of State Luye, Xu Ning could infer from the dao weapon in Chu Yeyang’s hand that the Chu family of State Luye was definitely not an ordinary small family or a subsidiary family.

The scale of their family might be comparable to a sect.

Compared to a sect, the cohesion of an independent family was more terrifying. The only disadvantage was that the selection channels for talents in the family were rather limited, so they could not guarantee a stable output of elites like a sect.

“I ambushed you just now was because I was stupid.”

Chu Yeyang quickly said, “I was afraid that you would surpass me and prevent me from obtaining the final inheritance, so I came up with this plan and ended up offending you. Please give me a way out. After leaving this mystic realm, I will definitely ask my family to repay you.”

In Chu Yeyang’s current state, he definitely couldn’t continue to climb and fight for the final inheritance of this mystic realm.

For him, keeping his life was currently a luxury.

“The final inheritance is on top of this void stairs?”

Xu Ning caught the key point in Chu Yeyang’s words.

“That’s right, as long as you climb to the top of the void stairs, you can choose one of the three inheritance items.”

Chu Yeyang said everything he knew.

“Three inheritance items? What are they?”

Xu Ning asked.

“A dao realm alchemy technique, a powerful demonic technique, and a drop of demon essence.”

Chu Yeyang said.

“How do you know so much?”

Xu Ning looked at Chu Yeyang curiously. “Tell me all the secrets about this mystic realm, and I can spare your life for the time being.”

‘For the time being…’

Xu Ning’s words made Chu Yeyang feel insecure, but he still said, “This mystic realm was left behind by the Red Sea Demon Lord. My ancestor was once the follower of the Red Sea Demon Lord.”

Afterwards, Chu Yeyang explained to Xu Ning the reason for the establishment of this mystic realm, the experience of the Red Sea Demon Lord in the seventeen states of the Abyss North, and how they entered this mystic realm.

‘Sure enough, this Red Sea Demon Lord is not an ordinary dao realm master. Even in State Wansheng, he is a big shot…’

When Xu Ning heard this, he began to understand.

“I’ll spare your life for now.”

Xu Ning felt that Chu Yeyang and the family behind him must also know a lot of the secrets of the seventeen states and even of State Wansheng, so it was still useful to not kill him.

However, Xu Ning would not let him off easily.

Before Chu Yeyang could thank Xu Ning, Xu Ning grabbed a handful of pills and stuffed them into Chu Yeyang’s mouth.

In that pile were various poisonous pills and three Frozen Seal Pills.

“If you don’t want to die, wait for me at the bottom of the void stairs.”

Before Chu Yeyang could react, Xu Ning lifted him up and threw him down the stairs.

Before he could sit up, he felt his whole body go cold before going stiff.

After dealing with Chu Yeyang, Xu Ning glanced up.

Xu Ning learned from Chu Yeyang that there were two people above him.

If he wanted to ensure that he could obtain the dao realm alchemy technique inheritance, he had to catch up to the two of them.

Otherwise, if the dao realm alchemy technique was selected, he would have nothing decent to gain.

‘Chu Yeyang was thrown down the void stairs. I don’t know if he is dead or alive…’

Jian Li had already reached the thirty-second step. She felt that she couldn’t climb further up anymore.

Seeing Xu Ning getting closer and closer, Jian Li felt a little depressed.

Not only was she worried about whether she could obtain the inheritance, but she was also worried about her own safety.

‘Let’s take a gamble…’

After thinking about it, Jian Li made up her mind.

She was not going to fight Xu Ning to the death, but was gambling on the fact that Xu Ning was not a bloodthirsty person.

She hoped that after she admitted defeat, Xu Ning would let her go and let her continue to climb.

Soon, Jian Li saw Xu Ning.

“Sir!”

As soon as Xu Ning stepped forward, Jian Li spread out her hands, in an attempt to show that she was harmless.

‘Is this the Jian Li that Chu Yeyang mentioned?’

When Xu Ning saw Jian Li’s weak posture, he guessed that Jian Li must have seen his strength and was unwilling to fight him.

“Sir, there are only three people left on the void stairs. So no matter who reaches the top, they will receive a piece of the inheritance. There is no need for us to fight.”

Jian Li quickly said, looking at Xu Ning nervously.

Xu Ning looked at Jian Li.

Since Jian Li was being honest, Xu Ning had no reason to kill her.

He ignored Jian Li and continued forward.

After seeing Xu Ning walk up and disappear, Jian Li was relieved.

‘He doesn’t seem to be a demonic path martial artist…’

Jian Li’s forehead was full of sweat. ‘I hope he and Fang Lixing don’t choose the demon essence…’

For Jian Li, the demon essence was the inheritance she wanted the most.

‘Already behind me?’

Fang Lixing looked back and saw that Xu Ning was now the closest to him.
