Niu Man and the White Tiger scratched their heads and stepped back, even the few members of the Infinite Sword Sect showed expressions of surprise.
Could it be that their Senior Brother Ning, who cultivated at an astonishing pace, also possessed talent in the Array Path?
Niu Man stood at the back, gazing at Ning Qi's silhouette, silently wondering to himself.
Wu Dao had once said that even he would need a quarter of an hour to dismantle the Grand Array of the Hundred Demons Palace's main hall; how long would Brother Ning take?
With their assistance, if Ning Qi could break it within half a two-hour period, it would indicate that his talent in the Array Path was not low either.
Ning Qi walked back and forth in front of the main hall and suddenly stopped.
Everyone's attention was drawn to him, understanding that Ning Qi was about to make his move.
Around Ning Qi, twelve lower-grade spiritual weapons suddenly appeared out of thin air, each one brimming with powerful magical power.
The twelve lower-grade spiritual weapons were arranged in different positions in the void, and invisibly connected, giving everyone a subtle feeling of unity.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!
The twelve spiritual weapons suddenly flew out together, revealing their sharpness, activating their attributes, and striking twelve different positions of the grand hall.
Someone with sharp eyes discerned Ning Qi's array-breaking method.
Each of the twelve spiritual weapons had its own attribute, and the force with which they struck their positions differed.
It was under such a combination attack that a sound like a mirror shattering was heard within the main hall.
Crack! Crack!
Everyone then saw the entire restriction enveloping the main hall shatter and disappear without a trace.
"??? "
The few from the Infinite Sword Sect slightly parted their lips. Even though they were already familiar with Ning Qi's various terrifying aspects, they couldn't help but be surprised again.
As for the demons from the Niu Mo Upper Sect, they were nearly stunned with disbelief.
They had conversed with Wu Dao and knew that Wu Dao needed a quarter of an hour to break this restriction, while Ning Qi used how long?
It was barely even a few breaths!
Niu Man's throat moved, swallowing his saliva with difficulty, as he closed his mouth, nearly biting his tongue with his strong, sharp ox teeth.
"Are we dreaming?" The White Tiger shook his large tiger head, feeling that everything seemed unreal.
Wu Dao said it would take a quarter of an hour to break the restriction; the Northern and Southern Domains hailed his unmatched prowess in the Array Path, so what should Ning Qi be called?
With Ning Qi here, could Wu Dao still be deemed unmatched in the Array Path?
For a moment, the demons didn't know if Wu Dao was just an empty name, or if Ning Qi was truly extraordinary.
They stared blankly ahead; now that the main hall restriction was broken, the spiritual blood seemed to have sensed it too. As if possessing intelligence, they immediately began to shine and charge outward.
"Not good, the spiritual blood is trying to escape!"
Niu Man exclaimed and was about to move forward to capture them.
But just as he spoke, his ox foot took only one step.
Ning Qi's twelve lower-grade spiritual weapons instantly formed a new array curtain, replacing the main hall's array and enveloping all the spiritual blood within.
The newly formed little beings from the spiritual blood crashed into the twelve weapon array one by one, bouncing back with a thud.
They fell to the ground, each one puzzled about what happened.
Wasn't the array opened, how could there be another one?
The twelve spiritual weapons slowly gathered, wrapping all the spiritual blood as they moved in front of Niu Man.
"Brother Niu, aren't you going to collect them quickly?"
Seeing Niu Man standing dumbfounded on the spot, Ning Qi reminded him.
Niu Man hurriedly took out the item his sect had given him for storage and collected all the spiritual blood one by one.
After securing them, Niu Man offered a deep bow to Ning Qi.
"Brother Ning, thank you!"
"Didn't we already agree on this? Why are you thanking me?"
Niu Man said, "Brother Ning may not know, Wu Dao intended to take half, as he calculated that once the array was opened, some of the spiritual blood would escape."
"We don't understand arrays; we can only use brute force, making it impossible to collect all the spiritual blood."
"Now with Brother Ning's help, we have collected all of it, and since you alone exerted effort, no amount of gratitude is excessive."
After speaking, he and the group of demons all deeply bowed to Ning Qi.
The True Inheritors from the Infinite Sword Sect witnessed this, and felt an immense pride grow in their hearts.
Just ask, in the Northern and Southern Domains, is there any True Inheritor who can earn such gratitude from the True Inheritors of a top Upper Sect?
And the demons from the Niu Mo Upper Sect, performed this gesture willingly.
Because, being able to gather all the spiritual blood would definitely result in commendation upon returning to their sect.
The Niu Mo Upper Sect has never reaped such a bountiful harvest from the Profound Truth Secret Realm over the generations!
Ning Qi led the group out of the Hundred Demons Palace.
Niu Man followed closely and quickly said:
"Brother Ning, you have given us such a great gift, we would be willing to join you in exploring this Golden Celestial Tomb."
Ning Qi said casually:
"It's just a matter of convenience, you don't need to follow me. Instead, go find the palaces that interest you and seek your own gains."
"Eh, how can that be? I, Old Niu, cannot owe anyone a favor. Our sect often teaches us that when you receive a favor, you should repay it generously."
Behind them, hearing Niu Man's pedantic words, the others almost burst out laughing.
Are you truly trying to repay a favor or just taking advantage?
Jiang Qingxue lightly covered her red lips, exchanging a glance with Xie Chaolu, both women's eyes filled with amusement.
Wang Ye and the others also held their faces flushed red, not expecting this guy to have such a thick skin.
Niu Man, seeing their expressions, did not mind and said again:
"Brother Ning, if anyone troubles you, we are willing to fight."
"For example, that Chu Xiaotian, he always wanted to force a battle with you. Their Beixuan Upper Sect probably wants to severely injure you within the Profound Truth Secret Realm to prevent your sect from threatening them. Rest assured, as long as I, Old Niu, am here, I will help you face them to the end!"
Wang Ye finally couldn't hold back and said:
"Brother Niu, there's really no need because Chu Xiaotian already fought with Senior Brother Ning at the entrance of the Golden Celestial Tomb."
"What?" Niu Man and the others were taken aback.
"What was the result?"
Wang Ye scratched his nose, "Chu Xiaotian was killed by Senior Brother Ning with one palm strike."
"Ah?"
Niu Man and the others stopped in their tracks simultaneously, seemingly unable to believe it.
That Chu Xiaotian had lingered at the extreme level of the Primordial Spirit Realm for a hundred years, skilled in attacking with Primordial Spirit Power. Even their Demon Race was weak in the path of the Primordial Spirit, and if Niu Man were to encounter him, he might also suffer defeat.
Yet now Wang Ye claimed that Chu Xiaotian had died at the hands of Ning Qi!
It was truly hard for them to believe.
However, such a matter could not be fabricated, and Niu Man and the others had no choice but to believe.
The few demons caught up again, Niu Man's mind turning as he vaguely made a decision.
He walked over to Ning Qi once more and said:
"Brother Ning, I didn't expect Chu Xiaotian to have met his end at your hands. Old Niu is truly impressed."
He paused, then continued:
"In that case, we must follow you even more. Your Infinite Sword Sect is originally restrained by the Beixuan Upper Sect. Luckily, I am from the Niu Mo Upper Sect, and my brothers can speak in the sect. After helping us gain so many benefits, after returning to the sect and reporting clearly, we will definitely stand with your Infinite Sword Sect."
Ning Qi glanced at Niu Man.
"Do you really have that kind of influence, able to persuade Niu Mo Upper Sect to help Infinite Sword Sect face Beixuan Upper Sect, especially since you are crossing domains."
Niu Man gazed sincerely at Ning Qi.
His bull-like eyes as large as copper bells, he discovered something strange.
When Ning Qi spoke, he was unaffected by any worries.
It was as if killing Beixuan Upper Sect's first True Inheritor, Chu Xiaotian, didn't stir any waves within him.
Niu Man couldn't fathom the source of Ning Qi's confidence. While Chu Xiaotian was outmatched, and killing him was a simple matter, the Beixuan Upper Sect had Integration Realm giants overseeing it.
And the uppermost in the Infinite Sword Sect where Ning Qi resided was merely at the Void Path Realm's extremity. Was Ning Qi not afraid of Beixuan Upper Sect?
Unable to figure it out, Niu Man didn't dwell on it any longer.
He waved his bull hand and said, "What's there to worry about? We demons can even use the name of the Demon God to swear an oath. After returning to the sect, we will surely persuade Niu Mo Upper Sect."
The Demon God is the strongest existence of their Demon Race. If their Demon Race swears by the name of the Demon God and does not follow through, they will certainly suffer backlash.
With that, the few demons immediately swore an oath.
Instantly, Ning Qi felt a tremendous force from the heavens, passing through the Golden Celestial Tomb and descending upon the few demons.
Presumably, their words were genuine.
"Alright, since Brother Niu is so straightforward, let's continue traveling together."
Though he already had plans to deal with the Beixuan Upper Sect, he was happy to accept the help of the great demons from Niu Mo Upper Sect for the Infinite Sword Sect.
Of course, even though Niu Man and the demons had made a Demon God oath, Ning Qi did not fully trust it.
Whether they could persuade the entire Niu Mo Upper Sect, especially the Integration Realm existence within their sect, remained uncertain.
Ning Qi would not place his future in the hands of others.
