282: No such person found

Half a month later.

Wu Ning successfully broke the record and emerged from the Boundless Sea, his eyes becoming incredibly deep, and a faint aura of time seemed to cling to him.

Seeing him appear, the Inner Courtyard Disciples gathered at the entrance of the Boundless Sea immediately let out excited shouts.

Some female Disciples were even more agitated, their faces flushed, and if not for the invisible majesty emanating from Wu Ning, they would have probably rushed towards him.

“Is he that Wu Clan Dao Child?”

Yu Qingsi murmured to herself, a flicker of surprise in her beautiful eyes.

Golden Brahma, who was constantly observing her expression, couldn't help but burn with jealousy, his gaze turning enviously towards Wu Ning.

If he couldn't beat him, no one would be able to stop him today!

Wu Ning at this moment paid no attention to the movements of the surrounding crowd; he was still immersed in the doubts in his heart.

He had experienced nearly seven hundred layers of Reincarnation illusions in the Boundless Sea, each one so real.

What puzzled him was that in many of these illusions, God Xi's figure appeared!

She seemed to be playing various roles, either familiar with him directly, or a completely unrelated passerby, or even legendary figures, but her figure could always be found.

Of course, these people merely looked similar to God Xi; their temperaments and charms were basically all different.

If he had only encountered her once, he might have thought it was a coincidence.

But after experiencing nearly seven hundred layers of illusions and encountering her no less than a hundred times, how could it be a coincidence?

Wu Ning slightly raised his eyes and looked towards the sky, feeling that the mist shrouding God Xi became even more impenetrable.

Swish!

Wu Ning's figure flickered, disappearing from his original spot.

When he reappeared, he was already back in the Immortal Palace on Floating Cloud Peak.

After a moment of contemplation, he took out Ink Treasure.

A childlike face appeared on the black leather book's cover, asking excitedly, “Master, is there anything else I can do for you?”

Wu Ning nodded slightly, “Help me look up all information about God Xi.”

“God Xi? Who is God Xi?”

Ink Treasure's eyes showed a hint of confusion.

“…”

Wu Ning looked speechless, then added, “The youngest daughter of the current God Lord of Heavenly Ruins Divine Kingdom.”

Rustle!

The black leather book immediately flipped, but it quickly stopped, and Ink Treasure's voice asked in confusion, “Master, the youngest daughter of the current God Lord of Heavenly Ruins Divine Kingdom is named Shen Le, not God Xi?”

“Shen Le?”

Wu Ning frowned, “Could it be that the God Lord had another daughter?”

After thinking about it, he felt it was highly possible; after all, he was the Lord of a Divine Kingdom, surely possessing many Divine Consorts, so having another daughter was not strange.

“Check again; that God Lord also has a daughter named God Xi.”

Wu Ning said in a deep voice.

The black leather book flipped again, and Ink Treasure quickly gave the result, “Master, I have already checked; that God Lord has a total of twenty-seven daughters, but none of them are named God Xi!”

“How is this possible?!”

Wu Ning's brows furrowed tightly; it was common knowledge that God Xi was the Divine Maiden of Tian Xu Divine Kingdom, could it be false?

But… why didn't Ink Treasure find her?

A cloud of doubt formed in Wu Ning's heart; he suddenly felt that there might be a huge secret hidden within this.

He pondered for a moment, then asked again, “Check again if there is a woman named God Xi in the Chaos Academy Inner Courtyard?”

After a few breaths.

Ink Treasure replied, “Master, I still haven't found any woman named God Xi.”

Wu Ning's eyes widened in shock; Ink Treasure's answer sent a chill down his spine.

If God Xi wasn't found among the God Lord of Heavenly Ruins's daughters, there might still be some hidden secret.

But if no information about her was found even in the Chaos Academy Inner Courtyard, it was as if this person simply didn't exist.

How was this possible?!

Could she be a ghost?

However, even if she were truly a ghost, she couldn't escape Ink Treasure's detection!

What exactly was going on?

Wu Ning took a deep breath, calmed himself, raised his hand, and took out the virtual god mirror God Xi had given him, placing it in front of Ink Treasure, and asked, “Then check who gave me this virtual god mirror!”

Now there was one last possibility: that God Xi was not her real name, but just an alias.

And Ink Treasure's mind had crashed, failing to react!

Rustle—!

The black leather book flipped again, making rustling sounds, but to Wu Ning's surprise, this time it flipped for dozens of breaths without stopping.

“What's going on? Has it really crashed?”

Wu Ning frowned, beginning to suspect if there was a problem with the black leather book.

After a full quarter of an hour.

The black leather book finally stopped flipping, but it was blank, with nothing on it.

“Master, this question is beyond my detection range; I cannot find it.”

Ink Treasure's voice was extremely solemn.

“Little Black, are you sure you're not malfunctioning?”

Wu Ning asked.

“How could that be? Master, I'm perfectly fine; there's absolutely no malfunction!”

Ink Treasure said with certainty.

Wu Ning nodded slightly; although he thought this possibility was extremely small, he still asked it a lot of questions to verify whether it was functioning normally.

After some verification, the black leather book was still normal; no problems were found.

Then, the problem lay with God Xi.

A person beyond Ink Treasure's detection capabilities…

Interesting!

If it weren't for a sudden whim to have Ink Treasure investigate, he wouldn't have known that he knew such an unfathomable person!

Wu Ning squinted slightly, pondering for a long time, not intending to question God Xi.

Sometimes, blindly seeking the truth is not a wise thing.

Because you don't know if you currently have the ability to accept that truth.

This is fine as it is; he is not a person who likes to get to the bottom of things, nor does he want to create extra complications.

Moreover, Wu Ning always believed that what seemed like a secret now was only because he hadn't reached a high enough position.

As long as his strength was sufficient and he stood high enough, nothing in the world could escape his eyes; at that time, all secrets would no longer be secrets.

Instead of wasting time pursuing an elusive truth, it was better to take the opportunity to improve his strength.

Putting away the black leather book and the virtual god mirror, Wu Ning vanished from the Immortal Palace in a single step, preparing to continue breaking records in other Trial Grounds.

Excluding the Invincible Path, Refining God Pagoda, Immemorial Mountain, and Boundless Sea, there were twelve other places in the Inner Courtyard where he could break records and earn points.

Wu Ning spent less than three years breaking the highest records in all twelve of these Trial Grounds, leaving all the Inner Courtyard Disciples dumbfounded.

By then, Wu Ning had already earned ninety-two million points, only eight million short of one hundred million points.

Eight million was neither a lot nor a little.

Among the few ways to earn points, only doing missions could quickly gain eight million points now.

Wu Ning browsed the mission list in the Virtual Realm and was immediately attracted by the top mission.

“Explore Buzhou Mountain: Ten Million Points”
