Chapter 72: Narrow Victory

  Ning Cheng quickly set up an array in the original location after Tai Shu Shi and others left.

  The formation had just been set up, and a cyan flying ship treasure suddenly landed not far in front of Ning Cheng. Xun Su coldly swept a glance at the place where Taishu Shi and the other two disappeared, before calmly getting down from the flying ship, showing no signs of urgency.

  There were four women in the flying ship, and these four women were exactly the ones purchased from Yishuiyuan earlier.

  Ning Cheng gazed at the cyan flying ship descending from Xun Shuang's hands, secretly sighing that this guy was wealthy, as the flying ship was actually a mid-grade artifact.

  "Idiot, you really have a good idea. You can hold me back for a moment, and then the other three will leave first, haha...". Xun Shun looked at Ning Cheng with a loud laugh, but there was not a hint of smile in his eyes.

  "In Xijia City, I, Shun, want to kill whoever, there has never been an exception..." As he spoke, a red light appeared in his hand, which was the same red flying sword that he had sacrificed at Yishui Temple.

  Ning Cheng patted the back, and the broken gun also fell into his hands. Before Xun Shun could continue speaking, Ning Cheng said to the four women on the flying ship, "Now there is an opportunity, I want to have a fight with this guy who cultivates with women, I'm sure this guy doesn't have time to find you. If you don't want to be coaxed into being a furnace tripod, then leave by yourself."

  Xun Shun was stunned after hearing this. He couldn't believe that Ning Cheng not only snatched away Lian'er and Liu Huanyu from him, but also dared to instigate the woman he had already bought to escape.

  He turned his head to glance at the four women who seemed to be really moving, and suddenly burst out laughing again. "I can even catch that escaped Uncle Shi, so why would I worry about people escaping from my flying ship? You should think about how you're going to die instead, because soon you'll find it's not possible for you to die..."

  Xun Shun finished speaking, and the red flying sword in his hand had already brought up a red curtain that enveloped Ning City, revealing his cultivation of Condensing Reality at the second level without a doubt.

  Ning Cheng knew that Xun Shu was absolutely not comparable to those ordinary cultivators from Pingzhou, and he was also a guy who had cultivated a complete set of skills. Just by looking at the way he controlled his flying sword, Ning Cheng could tell that his spiritual sense was not bad. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to control the flying ship to chase him here, let alone have the confidence to catch up with Tai Shu Shi and the others.

  Ning Cheng's hand shook, and the blue cloth wrapped around the long spear split into four or five pieces, revealing that broken long spear. The long spear followed his hand, bringing up a piece of gun tip along with it.

  Before the guns and red swords clashed, Ning City said again, "The opportunity to survive is something you have to fight for yourself. Now I've given you a chance, but you don't take it, and in the future, it will be your own fault."

  After hearing Ning Cheng's words and seeing the momentum of Ning Cheng and Xun Suo taking action, the four women on the flying ship who were still hesitating finally stopped hesitating and jumped off the flying ship. They didn't even have time to say thank you before they scattered and escaped, disappearing from sight in an instant.

  Xun Shun saw the true success of Ning City and was so angry that he almost vomited blood. He wasn't worried that these women could escape, but rather that a nine-layered ant had told them to escape, and these idiots actually believed it. Having been bought back by Xun Shun, could they still get away?

  In the midst of raging flames, that red sword curtain was even more murderous. He wanted to get rid of Ning City in the first instance, and then capture those few cheap women one by one, letting them know the consequences of betraying him, Xun Shun.

  Shun soon came to his senses. His sword curtain did not blast Ning Cheng's long spear as he had imagined, and then bind Ning Cheng and bring him before him.

  The twelve gun muzzles of Ning City were initially scattered, but soon formed a network of invisible ice lines that connected the range of the gun muzzles. In an instant, these ice lines merged the twelve gun muzzles into one piece, forming a cold and icy gun net.

  "Ka ka ka ka……" After a dense, crisp sound, the red sword curtain completely disappeared, leaving only one flying sword under the icy gun net. The gun's edge was still fierce and powerful. If anything had been blocked by his sword curtain, it should have been the ice-cold weakness in the middle of the gun net that couldn't continue to form an ice-cold gun net.

  "You actually have Xuan-level gun skills..." Shun Jun suddenly understood.

  Ning Cheng cultivates the complete technique, possessing divine thoughts doesn't make him feel unusual. What he cultivates is also a complete technique, during the gathering of Qi to form his foundation, he can also control flying swords to attack enemies.

  Ning Cheng was able to break through his sword curtain and even gain the upper hand, not because his cultivation was higher by a huge margin, but because this was a Xuan-grade spear technique.

  "Pffft......" Several streams of blood shot out from Xun Shuang's body.

  Xun Shun did not expect that Ning Cheng had a mysterious level of marksmanship, and even if he finally realized it, he still made amends with all his might, but was still pierced by several gun lights.

  He didn't show any fear towards Ning City because of this, instead he took out a dan medicine and threw it into his mouth, then stuck out his tongue to lick the bloodstains on his chin. At this moment, what appeared in his eyes was a crazy heat, he completely forgot about the few women who had escaped. No woman could be more important than the Xuan-level gun technique, what he wanted was Ning City's Xuan-level gun technique.

  Shun's flying sword did not continue to be sacrificed, but instead patted the storage bag at his waist, and a moldy copper coin suddenly appeared in his hand.

  "Go die." Xun Shun's mouth corner revealed a hint of mockery, the copper coins in his hand had already been thrown out.

  This copper coin instantly turned into a huge square hole coin the size of a dustpan, and in the next moment, the surrounding air seemed to be brought along by this copper coin, appearing stagnant.

  Ning Cheng felt his hand sink, and the broken gun in his hand seemed to have become much heavier. Ning Cheng immediately knew that there must be a problem with the copper coins that Xun Shuang had just cast out. He forcibly gathered his true energy, wanting to blast out the Mystic Ice Thirty-six Guns once again.

  Just as his Xuan Bing Thirty-six Guns had just gathered momentum, he felt a numbness in both hands, and the broken gun in his hand was unable to be grasped, directly swept away by a powerful force around him.

  The next moment he saw the square hole copper coin passing through the long spear, directly bringing the long spear flying.

  The long spear left his hand, and the heavy feeling in Ning Cheng's hand also disappeared instantly.

  Xun Shun's nostrils let out a cold laugh, and the red flying sword once again brought up three sword edges. Two of the sword edges completely sealed off Ning Cheng's retreat, while the third sword edge came towards Ning Cheng's waist, wanting to cut him in half at the waist.

  The sword's momentum was swift and unmatched, and in the brief moment of urgency, Ning Cheng lost his long spear. At this point, Ning Cheng had no room to defend himself at all. What he wanted most now was a defensive magic treasure. If there was one, or if he didn't need to worry about this incoming sword's momentum, he could choose to charge towards his opponent.

  Xun Shun's face was equally pale, and even the sword tip trembled slightly, apparently controlling that copper coin required a lot of true yuan.

  Just as the sword was about to cut him in half, Ning Cheng struck out with a axe-like fist.

  The axe fist's momentum blocked the sword tip, which slowed down a lot and its killing intent also dissipated, but it still landed on Ning Cheng's waist.

  Xun Shun let out a soft breath, he originally didn't want Ning Cheng to die so quickly, but Ning Cheng's ferocity was beyond his expectations. Now facing his sword, even if the opponent was ruthless, it would still be a fate of being cut down at the waist.

  A "hiss" like the sound of a defeated drum echoed, Ning City suddenly spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, and stubbornly didn't retreat.

  Shun Shun looked at the intact Ning City and the inner armor exposed at Ning City's waist, and immediately knew what was going on.

  Even if he was almost exhausted at this time, he still gathered his flying sword again, wanting to give Ning City another blow.

  Ning Cheng's Seven Day Ice Needle was immediately countered by the sword light.

  This was also the first time he had encountered such a situation, or that his experience with enemies was not rich enough. Now he already knew that the copper coin was the culprit who rolled away his remaining gun, how could he wait for the other party to come again. Just as Xun Shuang had just sacrificed the flying sword, the Seven Orbs Ice Needle had crossed the distance between the two people.

  At the moment when Qī Yào's Ice Needle pierced into Xún Shùn's chest, Xún Shùn suddenly realized he had been secretly plotted against. He let out a shocked cry, "How is this possible? Why didn't my Five Elements Copper Coin fall on this magical artifact...?"

  A powerful destructive force was wreaking havoc within his body, and he thoroughly understood that if he didn't seek help soon, he would perish here today.

  A brilliant red light burst out of his hand, this light was like a meteor, shooting out from Xun Shuang's hand.

  "What's going on?" Xun Shun saw that the bright red distress signal seemed to have encountered some kind of obstruction, and it only shot out for less than three zhang before being blocked.

  Ning Cheng drove the Seven Orbs Ice Needle into Xun Shun's body, and Xun Shun's eyes immediately lost their luster. He still stared at Ning Cheng with an unwilling gaze, he really couldn't understand why he had fallen at the hands of a Qi Condensation stage junior.

  "I was just a small Formation Master, before you came, I had already set up a small formation to block some shameless people from seeking help, idiot." Ning City spoke as he punched out again.

  Xun Shun was directly blown away by Ning Cheng's punch, and when he fell back down, he was already a corpse. The bright red glow that was blocked by the formation finally came down, slowly dispersing into nothingness.

  The third update is sent out, goodnight friends!
