We'll Do the Opposite

While the group was discussing, Ning Qi had already arrived at the mountain peak they had visited before.

By this time, he could no longer hear the people behind him talking about him.

"Master, let's go to the next place."

There's nothing left here.

Medicine Spirit looked around the continent and made a suggestion.

"Okay, let's go."

Ning Qi looked around, then leaped into the air.

They sped down the mountain.

After all this commotion, another day has passed.

After he came down the mountain, he found that more and more people were arriving.

Clearly, more people have heard about the situation here and are coming to search for treasure.

Ahead of him, one could even see that some people were also embroiled in conflict.

The reason is simple: it's obviously for the treasures here.

However, he had no intention of going to watch the excitement; he only glanced at it before continuing on his way.

There are many fragments of the continent in this space.

His arrival there was tantamount to venturing into the heart of the continental fragments.

Further in, there are even more fragments of the continent waiting for them to explore.

There were quite a few people ahead of them as well.

Many people travel in groups, so at this time, if you're alone, you're very likely to be targeted.

Murder and robbery are inevitable occurrences.

Ning Qi and Medicine Spirit continued forward. At this point, the continental fragments they passed through were mostly small villages or towns.

Larger fragments of the continent, like the ones we just saw, with towns or Mountain Gate, are almost never seen.

This means that there is no truly valuable place here.

"Master, why does it get worse and worse as we go further in the story?"

"Once you get here, you won't even see a decent house!"

Even the Medicine Spirit started complaining. "There shouldn't be anything left up ahead, let's go out."

"More and more people will come, and at this rate, there will be too many wolves and not enough meat."

"We won't get anything good."

"Don't worry, there's plenty more to come!"

"That's the right way to look. If we happen to find another decent house, we can make another fortune, right?"

"There are also those who lack the strength or fortuitous opportunity, even if they discover the Mountain Gate."

"Either you can't get in, or you missed it."

"This makes it worthwhile for us to explore this again!"

"Since we're here, let's make the best of it!"

Ning Qi smiled and looked at the fragments of the continent ahead, "Let's go, there's one here, with a destroyed city on it."

"Let's go in and see what we can find."

"Good!"

Medicine Spirit listened to his words, glanced ahead, and showed an excited expression.

If there are treasures to be found, then it's worth a trip.

If we can find something of value, then it has value.

"Walk!"

Ning Qi smiled, and then in a flash, he and Medicine Spirit arrived directly at the newly discovered continental fragment.

When the two arrived on this fragment of the continent, they saw that the city had been destroyed beyond recognition.

However, some of them, which possess Defensive Array or Restriction, are relatively well-preserved.

So the two of them headed toward these well-preserved buildings.

The two soon arrived at a place that looked like a hotel.

After Ning Qi explored the area with his Divine Sense, he found nothing of value.

Then they continued exploring with the Medicine Spirit, and soon arrived at a well-preserved mansion.

Several of these houses were discovered, and all were well-preserved.

"Master, these must have been wealthy families back then."

"There must be some kind of protective Restriction or Formation around their residence!"

"Otherwise, they would probably have been ravaged long ago."

The Medicine Spirit flew around in front, analyzing the situation with Ning Qi.

"That's right, let's go. Now that we have a place, let's look for it."

You look on the left, I'll look on the right.

"Let's meet up at the very front in a bit!"

Ning Qi nodded in agreement, and then ran towards the mansion and residence on one side.

This place is clearly untouched yet.

To be precise, many people intentionally abandoned the city after seeing its dilapidated state.

That's why they were given the opportunity to come here and explore.

The two split up.

Ning Qi arrived at a mansion, and seeing the extent of its destruction, he simply rushed over.

Arriving at the backyard of the mansion, he saw something that piqued his interest.

Even after all this time, some rare and exotic plants still grow in the garden.

Although they seemed worthless, Ning Qi had no intention of letting them go.

He put them all into his Storage Bag in one go.

Then, they turned their attention back to the side Side Room in front.

Upon arriving at the door, they discovered that half of the door had been destroyed.

Looking inside, I didn't find anything unusual.

After searching with my Divine Sense, I found nothing again.

So they bypassed that courtyard and continued towards another residence behind it.

Upon arriving at the residence, they found it to be relatively well-preserved, at least much better than the previous mansion.

Ning Qi glanced around, then went directly to the main room to carefully observe the situation.

Finding nothing unusual here, after probing with their Divine Sense, they discovered a surge of Immortal-Demon Power directly in front of the main room.

An ordinary person would not notice.

However, he is also a person with the Immortal-Demon Power.

People who can naturally sense these subtle changes.

So, he stepped forward and focused his attention on the wall in front of him.

He then unleashed his Immortal-Demon Power and hurled it at the wall.

"Call!"

After a soft sound, there was no further disturbance; even the walls remained completely still.

"Hmph, there was definitely something wrong."

If the phone were a regular wall, his strike would have pierced through it.

However, the wall was not breached; instead, it remained completely unmoved.

This immediately caught his attention.

So he stepped forward and backward, manipulating the Water Runes of the If Water Three Thousand.

We ventured toward the wall.

"Call!"

"Whoosh!"

As the Water Runes rippled, Ning Qi gradually sensed that something was amiss here.

Because his ripples on the Water Runes didn't have much effect here.

Even hacking into it was somewhat difficult.

"Go!"

This piqued Ning Qi's curiosity, and he pushed with both hands.

With such force, the ripples in the Water Runes began to shoot inwards.

"Whoosh!"

This time, with his help, the ripples of Water Runes penetrated deep into the wall.

"Rumble!"

At the same time, the wall began to tremble slightly.

Clearly, this is a fluctuation triggered by the Restriction.

However, Ning Qi didn't care and just smiled.

"Break!"

His hands moved swiftly, creating Water Runes that transformed into mysterious trajectories.

It then materialized into an invisible pressure, probing into its interior.

Despite this pressure, the wall showed no signs of movement.

Clearly, this was suppressed by the pressure of his If Water Three Thousand Formation.

"Come out!"

Ning Qi quickly discovered what was inside.

After confirming that it was inside, he pulled hard and pulled out a Brocade Box.

"Clang!"

After he pulled the Brocade Box out, it fell directly to the ground.

After rolling around a couple of times, it quietly lay down on the ground.

This Brocade Box is several feet longer than ordinary Brocade Box.

Ning Qi looked intently at the Brocade Box and couldn't help but become curious.

What is it?

After a moment's thought, he stepped forward and used the oppressive force of If Water Three Thousand to open it up.

"Call!"

The moment it was opened, the treasure inside was immediately revealed.

It was clearly a silver spear.

It emanated a cold light, and streaks of cold light flickered within it.

Beneath the silver spear lay an Ancient Books.

Ning Qi squinted and picked up the Ancient Books.

"The Overlord Silver Dragon Spear?"

He looked at the name on the Ancient Books and murmured it aloud.

Feeling the occasional vibrations emanating from the silver spear. "A fine spear!"

After praising it, Ning Qi put the silver spear directly into his Storage Bag.

This is a treasure hunt, not a time for exploration.

Obtain as many Cultivation Method Secret Manual, armor, and weapons as possible.

Once we leave here, we'll have plenty of time to study these weapons and armor on the way back.

After putting it away, I went to the yard.

Looking at the empty courtyard, I couldn't help but sigh.

Here I found a silver spear, but its owner had been dead for who knows how long.

He regained his composure and continued his search into the mansion ahead.

Upon arriving at this mansion, I found it to be remarkably well-preserved as well.

However, there were obvious footprints in the courtyard where someone had just been, clearly left by someone who had arrived before them.

Ning Qi did not give up exploring this place. After spreading his Divine Sense, he explored the area.

Finding nothing amiss, they hurried toward the house ahead.

The house was still empty, which disappointed Ning Qi.

If the silver spear hadn't been hidden in the courtyard, it probably would have been found by now.

However, that's fate; if it were someone else, they probably wouldn't have been able to discover it.

After consoling himself for a while, Ning Qi continued forward.

Soon they reached the end of the street, and continuing forward would lead to the city City Lord's Mansion.

"Owner!"

It was at this moment that the voice of the Medicine Spirit was heard.

Clearly, he had just arrived here as well.

"Any discoveries?"

Ning Qi saw Medicine Spirit approaching and asked curiously.

"Nothing was found."

"They just found a few useless pills."

Medicine Spirit shook her head and focused her attention on the City Lord's Mansion ahead. "Master, let's go take a look at the City Lord's Mansion!"

"We should be able to find what we're looking for here."

"Let's go. If there's nothing here, there's no need to waste time!"

Ning Qi nodded, then agreed and headed towards the City Lord's Mansion.

When the two arrived at the City Lord's Mansion, they saw some footprints on the ground.

Clearly, others had been here before them.

"We're too late!"

"Master, this can't go on!"

"Others always manage to get ahead of us!"

Once Medicine Spirit saw the footprints, she knew there was no need to continue searching.

There were many footprints underfoot, indicating that it was clear that more than one group of people had been there.

So, continuing the search will be futile.

"Alright, let's go!"

Ning Qi nodded and leaped into the air.

"We need to think of a solution. The further we go, the less good stuff we'll find!"

The Medicine Spirit, perched on his shoulder, began to offer advice.

However, he only offered suggestions and didn't provide any concrete solutions.

"That's hard to say. Let's go straight to the end of this space."

"If we search from the inside out, then no one will be competing with us?"

"Once we meet them, we'll retreat immediately!"

Ning Qi thought for a moment, then chuckled and said, "Let's clear their route beforehand, so we don't make a wasted trip!"

"Yes, Master!"

"That's a great idea!"

"This saves us from making a wasted trip."

Medicine Spirit clapped her hands, a happy look immediately spreading across her face. "Then let's go!"

"Walk!"

Ning Qi had already left the Shattered Continent and was looking ahead.

After finalizing the plan, he leaped into the air and sped towards the depths of this space.

Along the way, people would glance at them from time to time.

However, the further in you go, the fewer people there are.

In the end, there were no people left to see.

"Master, do you think these people won't be following us?"

Medicine Spirit sat on Ning Qi's shoulder, a look of worry on her face.

"So what if we find out?"

"I'll look for my things, they can look for theirs."

"Besides, there's no one here anymore, who would bother to come after us?"

Ning Qi chuckled dismissively and pointed ahead, saying, "This largest Shattered Continent is the end!"

"Let's go. Starting from here, we'll loot everything, one piece at a time, leaving nothing behind!"

"Good!"

"Set off!"

Upon hearing his words, Medicine Spirit excitedly bounced around on his shoulder.

They then followed Ning Qi and soon arrived at the Shattered Continent he had mentioned.

This continent was much larger than any he had encountered before.

Overall, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a large island.

There are mountains and plains here.

You can see two or three Mountain Gate on this side of the mountain range.

There are as many as four or five cities on the plains.

Even if you put it outside, it could be considered a small world.

"Master, there must be something good inside! Your city buildings and Mountain Gate are all well-preserved!"

Medicine Spirit looked at the cities and Mountain Gate below, a look of excitement on her face.

I can't wait to go down and loot everything.

"They're all ours, let's hurry and speed things up."

"If we find something valuable, let's put it away and look at it on the way back."

"Our main task now is to take all the treasures here, leaving nothing behind."

Ning Qi nodded and said to Medicine Spirit, "We'll split into two groups! You'll be in charge of the city, and I'll be in charge of the Mountain Gate!"

"There are many Restriction and Formation here, but Restriction in Formation, so there's plenty for you to explore."

"Okay! I'll go right now!"

The Medicine Spirit couldn't wait any longer. After agreeing, it got off his shoulder and flew towards the distant city.
