399: Fruit secured, time to retreat!
Jiang Ning tilted his head back.
Looking up from below, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of Sect Master Qing Ling's fine figure.
At this moment, Sect Master Qing Ling had her long hair fluttering, and her entire being radiated pressure, just like a goddess.
Jiang Ning put down his axe.
He sneered.
The crowd was shocked.
"Is this guy stupid? Does he actually think that he, a Late Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator, can defeat someone at Nascent Soul Perfection?"
"In the Cultivation World, every Realm is a whole new world. This guy is way too arrogant."
"Sect Master! Slaughter this wretch!"
Hearing this, Shen Jinhuan felt her anger burning in her heart.
The Devilish Qi within her Qi Sea surged, seemingly wanting to erode this entire Yousen Domain to nothing!
She moved her body.
Appearing beside Jiang Ning.
"Revered Master, should I kill them all?"
Jiang Ning chuckled.
"Don't be so murderous. After all, we are the ones coming to someone else's home to snatch things. Also, remember, when you encounter a strong enemy, if you can call for help, never do it yourself."
"Also, even if you can't call anyone, if you can escape, don't fight."
"It's no big deal."
"Preserve your capital so you can fight back in the future."
Shen Jinhuan nodded.
She asked, "Then what should we do now?"
Jiang Ning said, "Watch closely."
Next.
The crowd in Yousen Domain witnessed a scene they had not expected.
Jiang Ning, who had just been majestic and had repelled the strong Cultivators of Yousen Domain in a few moves, shouted directly into the air.
"Senior! Help! Nascent Soul Perfection, I really can't beat them!"
The crowd of Yousen Domain: ???
No way, this person...
Sect Master Qing Ling was also stunned.
Once one reaches the Nascent Soul stage, everyone is a person of status. Even when asking for help, no one would be so shameless.
Does this person really not care about Face?
What was even more unimaginable to them was...
After Jiang Ning shouted, a tyrannical pressure descended directly, pressing down on the crowd in Yousen Domain so hard they couldn't breathe.
That high and mighty "goddess" could not maintain her dignity for long before being pressed down until she couldn't straighten her back.
"Soul Transformation! This is Soul Transformation!"
An Elder from Myriad Insect Valley said through gritted teeth.
Immediately after, he realized.
"It's him!"
Sect Master Qing Ling turned her head.
The Myriad Insect Valley Elder explained, "A few days ago, a spirit boat passed over Myriad Insect Valley. Our Sect Master warned the other party, but they directly unleashed their pressure."
"The Sect Master said that was a Spirit Transformation Stage Cultivator!"
"I didn't expect that, after all this, they would come here."
Sect Master Qing Ling's heart sank.
Things were heading in the bad direction she had guessed.
Just now, she had wasted so many words with Jiang Ning because she saw that his Spiritual Artifacts, Aptitude, and Cultivation Technique were not ordinary, so she thought he was a Prodigy from another powerful domain visiting here.
Such a person must be equipped with high-level guards behind them.
Whether they knew it or not, large factions always provide comprehensive protection for their seeds.
The premature death of a Genius would be a loss of Luck.
Later, seeing no room for maneuver, she fused with the vegetation essence, thinking to scare the other party away.
Unexpectedly, the person wasn't scared away, but instead, the Cultivator behind them was summoned.
Even more unexpectedly, the person behind them was actually a Soul Transformation Cultivator!
"Soul Transformation!"
It was like a high mountain, a natural chasm that isolated domains like Yousen Domain from the outside, keeping them unable to enter the inner circles of the Lower Realm.
"What should we do?"
"We have no possibility of resisting."
Even if the other party had come with a Nascent Soul Perfection Cultivator, they would have dared to fight this battle.
But it just had to be... Soul Transformation.
Sect Master Qing Ling gritted her teeth and conceded.
"Senior, we had no intention of offending you. We beg for your forgiveness!"
The pressure vanished.
Sect Master Qing Ling and the others breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking at the two, one big and one small, no one dared to underestimate them.
Sect Master Qing Ling felt deeply humiliated.
In the Cultivation World, the strong prey on the weak.
If the other party is strong and comes to your home, you have to smile and offer your neck to be slaughtered.
"Fellow Daoist, since you come from a large faction, why make things difficult for us Cultivators of Yousen Domain?"
"This ancestral tree is the Foundation of Yousen Domain. Without the ancestral tree, Yousen Domain would be a dead domain. Therefore, the ancestral tree must absolutely not be given to you. I hope Fellow Daoist understands."
"We are willing to give some things as compensation."
Sect Master Qing Ling smiled awkwardly.
Jiang Ning did not want to go too far.
He knew in his heart that the ancestral tree could not go into his Small World.
This tree had lived for a long time; although it lacked combat power, its spiritual intelligence was definitely extraordinary.
Keeping such a tree by his side would be a ticking time bomb.
He glanced at the ancestral tree.
The ancestral tree knew that a Spirit Transformation Stage Cultivator had not revealed themselves, so it was being very obedient right now.
Jiang Ning cupped his hands, "I came here this time because I heard that the ancestral tree of Yousen Domain has great efficacy, so I thought I would come to pick a few. I didn't expect such a conflict to arise."
"How about this: I will take ten ancestral tree fruits—three from the top, three from the middle, and four from the bottom—and we will consider this matter settled. How about that?"
Every domain has a different stance.
Jiang Ning could not judge right or wrong.
He didn't want any more trouble.
After all, there were still things in Xuanhuang Domain that hadn't been completed.
Sect Master Qing Ling breathed a sigh of relief.
She knew that Jiang Ning wasn't asking for much.
She looked at the others, "Go get them for him."
"Qing Ling, the ancestral tree only bears ninety-nine fruits every fifty years! We don't even have enough for ourselves!"
"If it really comes to it, you and I can launch a swift attack. As long as we capture that person, we can make the person behind him hesitate to act."
Sect Master Qing Ling looked at the other person indifferently, "And then what? Can you abandon your Foundation and start fleeing?"
The other person was speechless.
Soon, the fruits were gathered.
The moment Jiang Ning received the ancestral tree fruits, he sensed the power contained within them.
It was a tyrannical vitality!
It was precisely this vitality that could rejuvenate the body and eliminate hidden dangers by mobilizing bodily functions.
Besides this, the vitality of the ancestral tree fruit could also feed back into the Qi Sea, making the Spiritual Qi in the Qi Sea even more vibrant!
It really was a good thing.
After putting the fruits away, Jiang Ning looked at the ancestral tree with reluctance.
Is there really no way to take it away?
The people of Yousen Domain suddenly became nervous.
Sect Master Qing Ling, as the Cultivator with the highest cultivation, said in a deep voice, "Fellow Daoist, you've taken the items, so it's time for you to go back, right?"
"Fine."
Jiang Ning withdrew his Dharma manifestation and left with the young girl.
The hearts of the crowd in Yousen Domain, which had been hanging in suspense, relaxed.
Subsequently, seeing the two of them turn back, their relaxed hearts hung in suspense once again.
They saw Jiang Ning take out a long sword and directly cut off a branch of the ancestral tree!
Jiang Ning smiled awkwardly, "Taking it away as a souvenir."
He hurriedly pulled the young girl away.
The trip to Ancestral City was a full harvest; although it had twists and turns, he had also felt the simple folk customs and hospitality of Yousen Domain.
Once they were out of Ancestral City, the subsequent matters had nothing to do with him.
While flying with Shen Jinhuan.
Jiang Ning shifted some of his attention into the Small World.
First, he let out Little White, who had been cooped up.
Jiang Ning looked at the ancestral tree branch he had stuck into the soil of the Small World.
Pondering in his heart.
"This branch still has vitality; is there a way to make this branch take root and sprout?"
