Looking at the black tower in front of him, Jiang Ning was extremely shocked. Everything was like a dream, so unreal.
Just when he was about to approach the black tower, suddenly, a large black mist poured out from the bottom of the tower, like thick ink, with a terrifying and evil aura, rushing toward Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning froze on the spot for a moment, his face pale, as if he was being stared at by an ancient dragon, all the hair on his body stood upside down, unable to move.
Just when the black mist was about to touch Jiang Ning, the tower shook slightly, as if hearing an unwilling roar. The terrifying black mist instantly retreated like a tide, as if it had never appeared before.
"Ho ho ho...!"
When the black fog receded, the terrifying pressure also disappeared. Jiang Ning knelt on the ground with his hands on the ground, sweat dripping, and kept breathing.
Jiang Ning could no longer describe the terrifying black mist just now in words. He only had an intuition that if he got even a trace of it, he would definitely die.
But not long after, Jiang Ning still forced himself to calm down.
Anyway, he has been reduced to a useless person, so instead of lingering on his last breath, it is better to give it a try.
Jiang Ning gritted his teeth and came to the first-floor tower door. Just as he was about to push the door open, an invisible force directly lifted him several meters away, and finally fell heavily to the ground.
Jiang Ning felt severe pain all over his body and struggled to get up.
Can't get in?
"Boy, don't try too hard. In your current situation, you can't even push the door open."
At this time, an old voice suddenly sounded in the space.
"who?"
Jiang Ning was startled by the sudden sound. He glanced around, but found no trace of anyone.
The old voice sounded again: "Are you a descendant of the nine ancient tribes?"
"That's right. If you don't have the blood of the nine ancient clans, you definitely won't be able to get in."
The mysterious old man seems to be asking himself questions.
Jiang Ning was confused, "Senior, I am not a descendant of the nine ancient tribes you mentioned. I wonder if senior can tell me where this place is?"
The mysterious old man did not answer Jiang Ning's question, but said slightly surprised: "Huh? Double spiritual veins?"
Double spiritual veins?
Jiang Ning's face was full of confusion.
"Little guy, what's your name?"
Jiang Ning replied: "Junior Jiang Ning."
"The ancient Jiang family? It turns out that you are the descendant of that guy. Haha, that's interesting. Do you want to resume practicing?"
Although he had doubts about what the old man said, Jiang Ning still said resolutely: "Think!"
"Okay, then let me see what's so strange about your second spiritual vein that it deserves to be sealed."
As soon as the old man finished speaking, Jiang Ning felt his body freeze and float uncontrollably. Then a golden light fell from the top of the tower and enveloped his whole body.
"ah!"
An indescribable pain shot through the whole body instantly, like countless silver needles inserted into the gaps of every joint, and like someone forcibly pulling out the muscles and veins in the body.
This was a kind of pain that hit his soul, almost making him faint from the pain.
At this time, the mysterious old man's voice sounded, "If you want to open the second spiritual vein, you need to remove the broken spiritual vein in your body, otherwise you will fail."
After hearing the old man's words, Jiang Ning bit her lips, her originally delicate face looking horribly hideous.
In about half a quarter of an hour, Jiang Ning's pale face turned pale, and earth-shaking changes took place inside his body.
The five originally broken spiritual veins have disappeared, and the meridians throughout the body are twisting like snakes dancing.
At the Dantian location, it seemed like something was about to break through.
Seeing this scene, the mysterious old man narrowed his eyes slightly.
coming!
The first spiritual vein was seen breaking out from Dantian, spreading rapidly towards Jiang Ning's body like a vine.
Then the second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth spiritual veins followed, without any hindrance, taking shape in Jiang Ning's body in an instant.
When the seventh spiritual vein appears, the speed of breakthrough drops significantly, like walking on mud.
Seeing this, the mysterious old man nodded slightly. A person who can open the seven spiritual meridians can be called a genius.
When the seventh spiritual vein was stabilized in the body, Jiang Ning trembled slightly. The eighth spiritual vein broke through the dantian with great difficulty and spread very slowly in Jiang Ning's body, like being trapped in a swamp.
At this time, the mysterious old man was already a little moved. You must know that those who open the eight spiritual veins are rare in the ancient clan, and will be trained as the future people in the clan to carry the cauldron.
This little guy from the Jiang clan has such outstanding talent.
After a long time, the eighth spiritual vein finally stabilized in Jiang Ning's body, and the originally boiling meridians and spiritual veins also calmed down, forming an intricate spiritual vein map in Jiang Ning's body.
Just when the mysterious old man thought it was over, the Dantian in Jiang Ning's body suddenly jumped, and the entire dark space was shaken.
"Huh? Could it be that..."
At this moment, the eyes of the mysterious old man were full of horror.
Jiang Ning, who had a normal expression on his face, was already frowning, and the struggle in his dantian became more intense, like a drowning person trying to come up to the surface to breathe.
Jiang Ning suddenly opened his eyes, and in an instant, his whole body's energy reached its peak.
"Open it for me!"
The originally silent meridians and spiritual veins boiled instantly.
Dantian burst in response.
The ninth spiritual vein appears. It is stronger and more magical than the first eight spiritual veins, connecting every meridian in the body.
"This little guy actually has nine spiritual veins..."
The nine spiritual veins come out of the dantian in the body, like nine giant dragons flying, magical, and like nine spiritual streams, nourishing every inch of flesh and blood.
The body that was originally lacking in spiritual energy was like a whale sucking water, frantically plundering the surrounding spiritual energy.
At the same time, Jiang Ning's momentum continued to increase.
One-star body tempering realm.
Three-star body tempering realm.
Seven-star body tempering realm.
It was not until the peak of the nine-star body quenching realm that he could stop.
Feeling the changes in his body, Jiang Ning clenched his fists and his whole body was trembling slightly. It was not anger, but excitement, as if he was in an abyss and suddenly found light.
"Ahem, little guy, don't get too carried away."
Hearing this, Jiang Ning quickly restrained himself and bowed towards the giant black tower: "I'm sorry for making you laugh, senior. Thank you for your kindness. If senior has any instructions in the future, I will definitely be at your service."
The old man chuckled and said: "There are indeed some things that need you to do, but they are still too far away from you."
Jiang Ning was puzzled and was about to ask, but something suddenly occurred to him and he quickly said: "Senior, I have some urgent matters now. Please excuse me for a moment."
"Well?"
After saying that, without waiting for the old man to reply, Jiang Ning quickly exited the black space and rushed towards the city.
Ah Man, please don’t let anything happen to you!
.....
The Wu family in Pingyang City has been refining medicine for generations. It is one of the four major families in Pingyang City. Although their realm is mediocre, their heritage cannot be underestimated.
As alchemists, they may not be very strong, but their connections cannot be ignored.
After all, a fourth-grade barrier-breaking pill is enough for a Tongxuan realm expert to take action once.
At this time, in front of the Wu family's mansion, a girl with only one shoe on her feet was kneeling in front of the door, banging her head and kowtowing.
Even though her forehead was bleeding, she still showed no intention to stop and kept repeating one sentence.
"Please save my young master from the Wu family. Ah Man is willing to be a medicine slave. Please save the Wu family..."
However, no matter how much he prayed, not even a crack was opened in the Wu family's closed door.
Xiao Er saw this scene as soon as he arrived, and he couldn't help but sneer at the corner of his mouth.
Fortunately, the master of the house is smart and knew that you, a cheap servant, would come to Wu's house to ask for medicine. Before Jiang Ning's accident, he protected you everywhere and I couldn't even touch you. Now, haha, you look like a bereaved dog. It's really ridiculous.
Looking at the back of the girl who keeps kowtowing, although she has not completely grown up, her slim back can still easily make people feel distraught.
Xiao Qiang touched his chin and walked over, suddenly kicking the girl on the back.
"Please ask the Wu family to save my family...ah, it hurts!"
Ah Man screamed in pain and lay on the ground. Just as she was about to raise her head, a foot stepped on her head.
"Idiot, are you asking for medicine for your young master? How about you lick the soles of my shoes clean and I will give you a mysterious pill to save your young master?"
Hearing the word Xuan Dan, even though his little face was deformed by being stepped on, Ah Man's eyes seemed to be shining, and he begged with excitement: "As long as you can save the young master, Ah Man is willing to do anything."
"Hahaha! He is indeed a fool, what a pity for such a good face."
Xiao Qiang raised his foot and was about to kick him again on that green face.
But the next moment his body froze, and the foot never fell.
Just because there was a creepy voice behind him, like words squeezed out from between teeth, angry and cold.
"Take your feet away, or else..."
"die!"
