Braving the Turbulent Currents of the Boundary Sea

"Roar!"

The Spirit Beast roared angrily at him.

Clearly, they do not intend to give in.

His eyes were filled with anger.

If given the chance, they would definitely Ning Qi to pieces and swallow him whole.

"Hmph, still not convinced?"

Ning Qi snorted coldly and immediately circulated the Immortal Power within his body.

It suddenly swept downwards.

"Boom!"

With the enhancement of Immortal Power, these Netherworld Ghostfire suddenly erupted with even stronger fluctuations.

Clusters of Blazing Flame transformed into fiery pythons.

It opened its gaping maw and devoured the Spirit Beast.

"Roar."

The Spirit Beast showed no weakness.

Despite this, they still resisted with all their might.

Wielding its sharp claws, it reached forward to grab.

"Hiss."

The fire python was struck, but only lasted a few breaths before being suddenly torn apart.

However, before the Spirit Beast could relax...

Several more fire pythons attacked.

It looked like it was about to devour him.

While it could easily defeat a single fire python, it was struggling against so many.

"Hiss!"

"Puff!"

He swung his claws repeatedly, tearing apart several fire pythons in the blink of an eye.

However, more fire pythons attacked, instantly biting several deep, bone-revealing wounds onto his body.

The wound was healing rapidly.

However, under the influence of the Netherworld Ghostfire, it was suddenly corrupted.

The wound, which was still healing, rapidly deteriorated.

Blood flowed from it.

"Cough!"

The Spirit Beast began coughing up blood.

A look of horror finally appeared in his eyes.

Clearly, no one expected Ning Qi to be so strong.

He was in grave danger simply by using a fire attack.

So, what if he goes all out?

"I'll give you one more chance; be my mount."

Ning Qi stretched out his hand and continued, "You are Spirit Beast that has reached the strength of Taiyi Golden Immortal."

They've all gained sentience; I know you can understand what I'm saying.

If you insist on going your own way, then don't blame me for being ruthless.

"Roar!"

The Spirit Beast was still Qi Ingestion, but this time its roars weren't as arrogant.

He was clearly still venting his emotions.

"Hmph, looks like I'll have to make you suffer a bit more."

"However, this time, I won't hold back."

As Ning Qi spoke, he took out the Dragon-Soaring Spear.

Driven by Immortal Power, a black phantom appeared behind him.

In particular, the Dragon-Soaring Spear in his hand emitted waves of energy that sent chills down one's spine.

A sudden gust of wind began to stir around them.

"Waaah~"

It looked like Ning Qi was about to make his move.

The Spirit Beast finally gave in.

It lay prostrate on the ground, emitting low whimpers.

Clearly, it means submission.

"Soul Blood, come!"

Ning Qi didn't believe any of this.

Just like when they subdued Shi Xiaokun, they only believed in his Soul Blood.

The Spirit Beast naturally understood his intention.

They dared not be negligent any longer.

He directly condensed a drop of his Soul Blood.

Then, it flew towards Ning Qi.

Ning Qi caught the Soul Blood and refined it immediately.

"Call!"

At this moment, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

This Spirit Beast is very powerful.

If he hadn't already solidified his strength at the Taiyi Golden Immortal Fifth Grade, he probably would have succeeded long ago.

"Owner."

After refining his Soul Blood.

Ning Qi discovered that he could actually understand what he was saying.

"What kind of Spirit Beast are you? What's your name?"

"Now, can you and your companion still separate?"

After realizing he could hear him, Ning Qi asked a series of questions.

"Master, I am Dragon-Bearded Tiger."

His name is Tu Hu.

The Spirit Beast quickly responded.

"Tu Hu."

Upon hearing his name, Ning Qi said, "Alright, from now on, I'll call you Tu Hu."

"From this day forward, you will be my mount."

"Although you are strong, you don't have any protective Law Treasure."

"In that case, I'll give you the Thunderclap Pearl."

As Lin Fan spoke, he tossed his Thunderclap Pearl directly to him.

"Whoosh!"

However, after a single bang, the Thunderclap Pearl suddenly shot towards Tu Hu's direction.

"Awoo~"

Tu Hu didn't hold back either, opening his blood-red maw.

He swallowed the Thunderclap Pearl in one gulp.

Although he didn't activate the Thunderclap Pearl, it wasn't a problem given his strength.

"When you're not busy, you can just rest your head on my arm."

Ning Qi stretched out his arm and said.

"Yes!"

After Tu Hu agreed, he suddenly moved forward.

It transformed into a stream of light and merged directly into his arm.

On his arm appeared the image of Tu Hu.

However, it has become just a trace.

Just like the Azure Dragon.

Azure Dragon on the left, White Tiger on the right.

Ning Qi nodded in satisfaction, then suddenly remembered something. "By the way, what's going on here?"

"Why are there so many skeletons guarding this place, and why has it remained untouched for so many years?"

"Call!"

After he finished speaking, the phantom of Tu Hu materialized on his arm.

"Master, these are the people who were killed by the Heavenly Tribulation."

"They do the things they did in life, day after day."

Tu Hu explained, "This is because their Divine Soul and spirits have been exploited by the master of the Heavenly Tribulation."

"It was refined into Sword Spirit and is stationed here."

"And their Divine Sense remain, because the resentment of being killed by the Heavenly Tribulation cannot be dispelled."

"Ultimately, it coalesced into skeletons here."

He explained the problem clearly in just a few words.

"I see."

Ning Qi nodded, then asked, "Are there any other problems here?"

"Why are there so many sects and cities here, yet only these withered bones remain?"

"Because the people here offended the master of the Heavenly Tribulation in their previous lives."

That's why he gave me special treatment.

Tu Hu continued to explain, "However, once their Divine Sense is dispersed, it will not be able to re-form."

"Alright, what other resources does this sect have?"

After learning the situation, Ning Qi continued to ask questions.

"It's gone. All the resources here were looted long ago."

"It was the master of the Heavenly Tribulation who did it."

After Tu Hu responded, he continued, "Master, why don't we go somewhere else?"

"That's good, saves us from wasting time."

Ning Qi nodded, then asked directly, "Then why don't they attack you?"

That's what intrigued him.

If these people are capable of attacking anyone, why wouldn't the Tu Hu be affected?

"Master, I am the guardian Spirit Beast of this place."

"I was here when they were alive, and they remember my existence even after they died."

So, they won't attack me.

Upon hearing this, Tu Hu responded earnestly.

"Just as I thought."

After Ning Qi understood, he stopped worrying about it and said, "Let's go."

After saying that, he suddenly opened the passage.

Then, he immediately summoned the Tu Hu.

Ning Qi then sat on Tu Hu's back, and with a leap from Tu Hu's back.

They suddenly left this place.

When it reappeared, it had returned to the outside world.

"By the way, do you know where this Heavenly Tribulation Inheritance is located?"

Ning Qi asked again.

Instead of using Compass to find it, it's better to ask Tu Hu directly.

Perhaps he knows where it is.

After all, he had been trapped here for a long time.

"Know!"

Tu Hu nodded in response.

"Okay, let's go straight there!"

Ning Qi pointed ahead and said, "More and more people will come here, so we must seize the opportunity."

"Master, where is there any training?"

"You probably can't manage alone."

Upon hearing his words, Tu Hu couldn't help but show a worried expression and offered a reminder.

"It's alright, let's go check the situation first."

Ning Qi nodded, but didn't take it to heart.

He hasn't told Tu Hu yet.

He already possessed the Heavenly Profound Sword Art Inheritance.

Moreover, they also gained the status of Inheritance.

"Good!"

Tu Hu didn't object and immediately agreed.

He knew Ning Qi's strength; if he wanted to escape, it wouldn't be difficult for him.

After he agreed, he prepared to set off at full speed.

"No need for that trouble."

"I have something faster; you just need to point the way."

Ning Qi stopped him.

Then go to the Inner Realm to find the Medicine Spirit.

After explaining the situation, they finally took out the Flying Vessel.

Under the control of the Medicine Spirit, they continued their journey.

However, this time we don't need Compass.

Tu Hu led the way the entire way.

"Master, seeing him reminds me of cats."

Medicine Spirit sighed and said, "I wonder if we can contact Miss Xu here."

"She should be among the Human Race, not too far away."

"I'll give it a try."

After hearing his words, Ning Qi took out the Jade Pendant.

Then I started trying to send a telepathic message to Xu Qingqiu.

"Call!"

After he activated it, a wisp of smoke burst forth from the Jade Pendant.

After the smoke cleared, Xu Qingqiu's illusory figure appeared before him.

"Young Master Ning!"

When Xu Qingqiu saw Ning Qi, she greeted him with a smile.

She could tell that Ning Qi was safe and sound, so she wasn't too worried.

"Miss Xu, it's been a long time."

Ning Qi responded with a smile.

"Yes, it's been a long time."

After Xu Qingqiu responded, he asked, "Where are you now?"

"I am in an Ruins, searching for a priceless treasure."

Ning Qi answered frankly, then asked, "And you, how's it going on the Boundary Sea Battlefield?"

"I've always been assigned to the rear, doing tasks like inventorying and distributing resources."

"Occasionally, we'll go out to assist with missions, but it's relatively safe."

Xu Qingqiu responded only after hearing his question.

"That's not bad."

Ning Qi said with relief, "I was just saying you went to explore the Ruins too."

That's what he's worried about.

She wasn't very strong, and if she went out into the brutal environment of the Boundary Sea Battlefield, she would be in serious trouble.

That's very dangerous.

Don't worry, I'm safe now.

Xu Qingqiu said with a smile, "But you should also be careful."

"Currently, several races are preparing for a fierce battle."

"I heard it's about to begin."

"Yes, I'll be careful."

"You too, whatever you do, don't come to the Ruins."

"Don't go out too often. Just do some missions occasionally to earn some merit points."

Ning Qi nodded, offering a reminder.

Don't worry! I won't take any risks.

Xu Qingqiu nodded in response, "Just be careful."

"Okay, then you wait here. I'll come find you after I get out of here!"

After Ning Qi agreed, he continued.

"Really? That's great!"

Xu Qingqiu immediately became happy.

Speaking of which, it's been a long time since I last saw Ning Qi.

"Of course, a gentleman's word is his bond!"

Ning Qi nodded and said, "Since you're alright, I'm relieved."

"I need to continue my journey. Remember to let me know if anything happens."

"Okay! Don't worry!"

After Xu Qingqiu agreed, she ended her telepathic communication with Ning Qi.

"Master, I can't see the kitten!"

Medicine Spirit quickly reminded him.

"Didn't I say I'd go find her when I get out? Then I'll see her."

Ning Qi looked at Medicine Spirit and said.

That's great.

Upon hearing this, Medicine Spirit immediately smiled.

I never expected that Ning Qi's words were actually for my sake.

He and the Nine-Tailed Cat hadn't seen each other for a long time.

However, only Ning Qi himself knows the real reason.

He also had feelings for Xu Qingqiu.

It's just that they don't say it outright.

"Master, once we get past this current, we'll be there soon."

At this moment, Tu Hu suddenly spoke.

As he spoke, everyone looked forward in that direction.

That's when they realized what was happening ahead.

A large area of turbulent water appeared ahead of them.

Here, many islands have been torn apart.

Even more meteorites were churning within it.

The collision produced a deafening roar.

More often, they simply exploded.

And so, meteorites were still being attracted to the surrounding area from time to time.

It was eventually sucked in by the turbulence.

"Will this be possible?"

Tu Hu reminded them after discovering that they were also observing the situation.

Only then did he say, still somewhat uneasy.

This place is dangerous; this obstacle alone is enough to keep many people out.

"Hmph, of course we can get through. You think a mere turbulence can stop us?"

Medicine Spirit said dismissively, "Our Flying Vessel can even traverse black holes."

"Oh? That's great."

Upon hearing this, Tu Hu immediately became interested.

There were no problems on the way.

Now that we've encountered it, it's a good time to see what's so powerful about this Flying Vessel.

"Set off!"

Ning Qi raised his arm and gave the order to set off.

"Good!"

After Medicine Spirit agreed, she immediately took control of the Flying Vessel.

It flew into the area upstream.

During this time, the Flying Vessel's protective array was also activated.

The patterns within it also began to fluctuate.

It's clear that all defensive measures have been activated.

"Buzz!"

The next moment, their Flying Vessel suddenly entered this area of reverse current.

A series of ear-piercing sounds erupted.

"Defense, activate!"

The Medicine Spirit roared in anger.

Suddenly, the Flying Vessel's internal defenses were also activated.

With a ripple of light, the defenses in front of them were suddenly opened.

In this way, fluctuations that could affect their mental state are abruptly blocked.

Everything was as if nothing had happened.

However, looking at the turbulent area outside still makes one feel uneasy.

"Master, this Flying Vessel is incredibly powerful."

Tu Hu's eyes widened, his expression turning serious. "The Defensive Array on this Flying Vessel are all long-lost Formation!"

Only then did he realize the truth of the matter.

"That's right, that's why we were able to get through here safely!"

Ning Qi nodded, then asked, "How long will it take to get out of here?"
