"Meng Yan?" Ji Ning's eyes lit up. Although she had only spent a few days with Meng Yan when they first came to Anping City, she had a good impression of him. Moreover, as someone who would risk her own life for others, Ji Ning felt that he was worth helping out.

  "Cloud Ark!" Ji Ning shouted loudly.

  Yunzhou quickly hurried over and bowed his head, saying: "Elder Martial Brother Ji Ning, you're looking for me?"

  Ji Ning nodded, turned his head to look at Bei Shan Bai Wei beside him: "Bai Wei, later you take Yunzhou with you, and then send your people to take Yunzhou to Meng Yan. Let Yunzhou bring Meng Yan back to the Heibai Academy."

  "Good." Bei Shan Bai nodded slightly.

  "Yunzhou, did you understand?" Ji Ning looked at Yunzhou. The reason he let Yunzhou go was that Ji Ning could see that Yunzhou was a person who was very lively and knew how to read the situation and act accordingly. Whatever Ji Ning instructed him to do, he would definitely do it perfectly.

  Yunzhou continued: "Don't worry, Master Ji Ning, I will definitely invite Master Meng Yan."

  "Hmm." Ji Ning nodded.

  Bei Shan Bai smiled: "I've done what Father told me to. Next is a gift I prepared for you myself."

  "Bai Wei, what's going on..." Ji Ning tried to refuse.

  "Don't refuse." Bei Shan Bai Wei said repeatedly, "You and I are also brothers, you entered the Hei Bai Academy this time and shone brightly in the Lun Dao Hall. How can I, as a brother, not have some congratulatory gifts? You can rest assured, because of my father's restrictions on me, I don't have as much wealth as he does, so these gifts are not considered expensive."

  Ji Ning smiled wryly, since Beishan Baiwei had already said so, what else could he do?

  Bei Shan Bai Wei flipped his hand and it was a thick book that looked ordinary, although the material of the book looked good. However, Ji Ning didn't notice anything at all with just one glance.

  "I think you'll be going out to make a name for yourself soon. Cultivators all have to go through life and death trials, only then can they walk further on this path of cultivation." Bei Shan Bai smiled, "So I've prepared this map for you! This is the entire map of the Great Xia Dynasty."

  "Map of the Great Xia Dynasty?" Ji Ning exclaimed.

  How great was the Xia Dynasty?

  "Don't get excited, the Great Xia Dynasty is vast, and this map book only has a detailed description of Anping County. The other places in the Great Xia Dynasty are tens of thousands of times larger, but they're just rough outlines to prevent you from getting lost." Beishan Baiwei said helplessly, "A truly detailed map of the entire Great Xia Dynasty? Even I can't get my hands on it."

  Ji Ning was deeply moved.

  For cultivators... going out to adventure and explore is essential. The importance of the map is self-evident. Because in this vast and endless land, there are too many mysterious, dangerous, and terrifying places. If you're ignorant and unknowing, you might accidentally rush into a dead end, and if you die, it would be too unjust.

  "It's settled then, I'll take my leave first." Bei Shan Bai Wei stood up with a smile, "I know that your cultivation time as a genius is very tight."

  "Leaving so soon?" Ji Ning also stood up.

  "You have a Black and White Academy in Anping City, I think I can come anytime." Beishan Baimei immediately left with his servants and Yunzhou.

  ……

  Ji Ning watched as Gao Xianzhi and the others transformed into flowing lights and departed, only then did he lower his head to look at the many treasures placed on the six jade plates beside him.

  "My Small Thousand Swords Formation was just short of flying swords, and now I've obtained two sets of flying swords." Ji Ning looked at the two sets of flying swords, one set with 72 flying swords and another with 18 flying swords. Especially that 18 flying swords were obviously top-grade flying swords. "Although I haven't used my Small Thousand Swords Formation many times, but that North Mountain Black Tiger knew early on that I needed a large number of flying swords. He's indeed one of the candidates for the next An Bang Marquis, and his information is truly well-informed."

  "I am now at the Violet Palace boundary, with over 700 people in the Human Stage flying sword is not difficult."

  "I can wait until I reach the Wanxiang stage. At that time, it will be a seven-hundred-odd-stage flying sword. When my primordial spirit is formed, it will be a heavenly flying sword." Ji Ning sighed in admiration, thinking that the Small Thousand Swords Formation could make Yun Huaxian apprehensive, and he himself had the "Nuwa Diagram" and was on the path of the Sword Immortal. It was indeed suitable for using the 'Small Thousand Swords Formation', believing that the Small Thousand Swords Formation would be stronger in his hands than it was in the hands of that original Thousand Swords Immortal.

  Ji Ning continued reading on.

  "Wings?" Ji Ning looked at the black wings on the jade plate. "Much better than the wings I got from killing the Snow Dragon Mountain disciples."

  The wings are of little use to Ji Ning, mainly used to disguise and conceal the 'Wind Wing Escape Technique'.

  This was because the ancestors of the Wei Chi family had saved a heavenly immortal, and that heavenly immortal had given them this divine ability out of gratitude. Considering that there were only five divine abilities in the entire Black and White Academy, it could be imagined how precious they were, and it was no wonder that the Wei Chi family would use the Winged Treasure to conceal theirs.

  "Boat!" Ji Ning looked at the fourth gift and smiled, "A top-grade human-stage treasure, from now on traveling will be much faster."

  With a direct stretch of his hand, he easily refined the wings and boats.

  "The Miasma Treasure." Ji Ning looked at the fifth gift, picked up the white jade bottle, and after a simple refinement, he found that inside the white jade bottle was a white bead surrounded by a thick and dense white misty miasma.

  "Get back, all of you! Move further away!"

  Ji Ning's gaze swept around, and Yunluo, who was standing not far away, retreated to the back and exited the courtyard.

  "Get up."

  Ji Ning's heart moved slightly.

  In an instant, the courtyard was filled with a large amount of white mist, which spread over an area of dozens of feet. The dense fog made it difficult for even Ning's divine eyes to see his own fingers. It even stirred up the surrounding heavenly energy, making it impossible for Ning to sense anything around him.

  Rumors say that the Miasma Treasure is suitable for escaping, because first, it's invisible to the naked eye, and second, it can't sense its surroundings. Ji Ning nodded slightly, "It's indeed true, even I, the one releasing the miasma, can't see my surroundings anymore. As long as I release the miasma... for a while, both enemies and allies won't be able to see, just choose a direction randomly and escape immediately."

  Miasma, no distinction between friend and foe.

  Ji Ning refined the jade bottle and the pearls inside it. The miasma only existed within the pearls.

  "I wonder if the spirit can see." Ji Ning's heart moved slightly.

  Wow!

  Divine consciousness was released instantly, enveloping the entire courtyard in an instant.

  "Hmm?" Ji Ning's face revealed a hint of joy, the miasma was powerful enough to stir up the forces of heaven and earth, but under his divine sense... it still appeared as thin as a hair.

  "Good." Ji Ning was overjoyed.

  "For others, this poisonous gas treasure is only a means of escape. But for me, I can release the poisonous gas to confuse the enemy and then engage in close combat." Ji Ning's mind instantly came up with this strategy, his divine sense was not affected by the poisonous gas, dealing with Wanxiang True Man would be much easier.

  "Another killer move." Ji Ning smiled.

  Ji Ning immediately looked at the sixth jade bottle, one thousand kilograms of yuan liquid! This is a staggering wealth, ordinary earth-grade artifacts only have ten kilograms of yuan liquid, which means that this one thousand kilograms of yuan liquid can exchange for one hundred ordinary earth-grade artifacts! Even more powerful earth-grade artifacts could be exchanged for ten or eight.

  Like Beishan Baiwei and Beishan Hu, at first they gambled with a small stake of 90 yuan.

  "Bei Shan Hei Hu's handwriting is quite impressive." Ji Ning no longer hesitated, put away the treasure and picked up the jade bottle, heading directly to the quiet room.

  ……

  Quiet room.

  The jade bottle is placed in front, and the stopper is pulled out.

  Ji Ning sat cross-legged on the jade bed, calming his mood. As soon as he had a thought, a mouthful of yuan liquid flew out of the jade bottle and was absorbed into Ji Ning's body.

  "Humming" the huge lake at the bottom of the Zifu Void Sky began to surge out a large amount of pure yuan force, and the entire lake started to stir up, expanding at an extremely rapid rate.

  The outermost outline of the lake, constantly expanding, spreading out in all directions.

  The lake became bigger and bigger, occupying more and more of the void, overflowing into its depths.

  Expansion!

  Continue to expand!

  One hundred kilograms of yuan liquid, two hundred kilograms of yuan liquid, three hundred kilograms of yuan liquid... Ji Ning didn't hesitate at all, constantly refining. His foundation was solid, his understanding of the Tao was already quite high. His divine soul was strong enough, his sword heart was clear... He could completely cultivate to the early stage of Wanxiang with one effort.

  The lake of Zifu is expanding continuously, with an increasingly astonishing area, and it can even be said to have expanded from the category of a lake to that of a 'sea'.

  The Sea of Purple Mansion!

  600 kilograms of yuan liquid! 700 kilograms of yuan liquid!

  "I used 80 kilograms of yuan liquid last time, and this time I refined 720 kilograms of yuan liquid, it's almost done." Ji Ning thought to himself, according to the records of "Water Source Notes", if he could refine 800 kilograms of yuan liquid at the stage of Zifu, the foundation he laid would be considered a 'Tianxian Foundation'. The appearance of his achievement would also be the most top-notch.

  "Whoosh"

  Seven hundred and ten kilograms of yuan liquid. Seven hundred and twenty kilograms of yuan liquid, seven hundred and thirty kilograms of yuan liquid.

  "How come my Purple Mansion hasn't felt the accumulation reach its limit yet?" Ji Ning's heart was somewhat puzzled, and the refinement of the yuan liquid also slowed down. Some inferior cultivation methods would result in the Purple Mansion Lake being able to hold only a hundred or so jin of yuan liquid, which is already quite good. But Ji Ning had already endured over 800 jin of yuan liquid.

  740 kilograms of yuan liquid... 780 kilograms of yuan liquid... 800 kilograms of yuan liquid!

  Ji Ning opened his eyes and stopped continuing to refine.

  "Last time I refined 80 kilograms of yuan liquid, and this time I consumed another 800 kilograms. Can my Zi Fu still continue to accumulate?" Ji Ning furrowed his brow, although the "Water Source Annotation" didn't go into detail about the limits of endurance, because each person's limit would have subtle differences, generally after exceeding 800 kilograms of yuan liquid it should quickly reach its limit.

  "Stop for now and ask Master two days later." Ji Ning stopped his cultivation.

  At the time of his cultivation in Ji Ning, in a quiet mansion in the east city of An Ping City, Meng Yan also sat cross-legged on the bed silently nourishing his Zi Fu. His Zi Fu was injured before, and he needed to rest well to recover.

  "Rock rock, come out quickly." An anxious voice came over.

  "What's your name, uncle?"

  Meng Yan stopped and got out of bed, then walked out.

  "What's wrong, Uncle Ming?" Meng Yan pushed open the door and saw a bald-headed man outside with a worried look on his face. Meng Yan was very grateful to Uncle Ming, at least he was willing to let him stay here.

  "Have you gotten into trouble and offended someone? The guards from the Anping Marquis's estate have come looking for you." The bald-headed old man, Uncle Jiao, was very anxious.

  "Ah." Meng Yan shook his head, "Nope."

  "Never mind, go and see." The bald-headed man said repeatedly. Although he had also settled down in Anping City and still had a quiet small mansion. But compared to the high-ranking Anping Hou Mansion... it was simply an ant in front of a dragon god, no, not even an ant, just a grain of sand.

  Meng Yan was soon standing in front of the main gate of the mansion, where two armored guards from the Imperial Guard were standing outside. Next to them stood a young man in white robes, and the two guards were still standing behind him.

  Meng Yan took a look and although his heart was filled with fear, he also felt a hint of bitterness.

  "Being able to have An Pinghou's guards follow me on one side, when can I be like that?" Meng Yan's heart was bitter and astringent. "I'm not even able to enter the door of a sect now, no sect wants me. When can I continue on this path of cultivating immortality!"

  A tall and thin young man in a white robe smiled as soon as he saw Meng Yan: "Could it be Brother Meng Yan?"

  "Meng Yan... brother?" Meng Yan glared at him.

  The bald-headed man next to him was also stunned and followed with: "Right, he is Meng Yan."

  "My name is Yunzhou, and I have been sent by my master Ji Ning to invite Brother Mengyan to the Black and White Academy." The tall and slender young man in white robes smiled.
