Chapter 931 - 389: Tree of Myriad Laws Spirit Fruit

"Chu Ning, are you alright?"

Cen Zijin came to Chu Ning’s side at this moment, asking with concern.

"I’m fine." Chu Ning shook his head.

Then, he lifted his gaze, looking at the remaining six Golden Core Cultivators around.

Jiang Cheng, He Feng, Yuan Xiaolu...

Each of them was looking at him, and their faces showed shock and vaguely, some reverence.

Chu Ning had just taken the attacks of two Middle Stage Nascent Soul Cultivators without harm.

Even when several Middle Stage Nascent Soul Cultivators found the Outer Celestial Demon to be painful, Chu Ning could severely wound that demon.

Thinking back to earlier when another Golden Core Late Stage Cultivator was utterly destroyed by the Outer Celestial Demon’s attack without any resistance.

Everyone naturally realized.

Chu Ning’s strength was evidently not on the same level as the rest present.

After a few moments of silence, Jiang Cheng spoke first, clasped his hands together with a bitter smile:

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist, for showing mercy during the match. I didn’t expect Fellow Daoist Chu’s divine techniques to be so powerful.

Mr. Jiang really was a frog in a well before."

Jiang Cheng felt quite emotional at this moment.

If Chu Ning could previously withstand an attack from the Daluo Sect’s Du Xianming in the competition.

It greatly surprised him.

Today, the power Chu Ning demonstrated in this valley caused even fear within him.

Jiang Cheng couldn’t even imagine, if Chu Ning used these divine techniques in the match.

How many rounds the so-called first Golden Core Cultivator of Cloud Peak Alliance could withstand.

This title previously seemed ridiculous on him.

"Fellow Daoist Chu is truly deserving to be declared the first Golden Core Cultivator of Cloud Peak Alliance; Mr. Yuan acknowledges willingly in both heart and words!"

Yuan Xiaolu spoke up at this moment, saluting Chu Ning with clasped hands.

"If Chu Ning hadn’t severely injured that demon, I don’t know what fate we would have encountered."

After Yuan Xiaolu said this, the other Golden Core Cultivators also spoke up in succession.

"Indeed, Fellow Daoist Chu’s magical treasure could severely injure an Outer Celestial Demon comparable to Middle or even Late Stage Nascent Soul; it’s truly astounding!"

"Even the spells from Taihe Institute’s seniors couldn’t severely injure the Celestial Demon like that!"

"Fellow Daoist Chu’s divine techniques are truly impressive, thank you, Fellow Daoist!"

Hear everyone’s admiration and praise, Chu Ning then shook his head.

Earnestly said: "It was fortunate that the demon was careless and didn’t realize my magical treasure happens to restrain demons.

Otherwise, Mr. Chu wanting to succeed easily wouldn’t have been simple."

Chu Ning’s words were not entirely modest.

This Outer Celestial Demon was different from the one in the Golden Spirit Species Spirit Realm.

That demon was at Golden Core Stage, and if facing one-on-one, he had the power to fight.

But today’s demon had a cultivation realm far higher than his.

If the demon hadn’t been unaware of the Black Profound Gold in Chu Ning’s magical treasure, and if Chu Ning hadn’t leveraged the special defensive function of the Undying Golden Body Shield, which appropriately countered the enemy.

If the demon had been cautious instead of directly attacking or had used other divine techniques.

It’s not possible for Chu Ning to heavily wound the demon.

Although his Five Elements Spirit Sword is quite powerful, with his current Golden Core Late Stage cultivation.

To control it to severely wound Nascent Soul Cultivators, it might still be unattainable.

So indeed, there was an element of luck involved.

However, Chu Ning’s words were considered as humility by everyone.

After all, they had witnessed Chu Ning not only using the Five Elements Spirit Sword to severely injure the Outer Celestial Demon.

But also the first few Ice Shadow Sword Talisman Sword Auras were enough to possess the strength of Nascent Soul Cultivators.

Chu Ning didn’t further explain at the moment.

He retrieved the remaining three Spirit Swords back into his body, then hesitated slightly as his gaze fell upon the two Spirit Swords pinning the demon’s hands below.

Ultimately, he chose not to retrieve those two Spirit Swords.

But let the two Spirit Swords continue to immobilize the demon’s hands.

Meanwhile, Cen Zijin also called back her Magical Treasure Flying Sword.

However, its Spirit Charm had disappeared, and even the sword body was full of pits.

Evidently, her Lifebound Magical Treasure had been completely destroyed by the Outer Celestial Demon’s strike.

Seeing this, a trace of regret involuntarily appeared on Cen Zijin’s face.

Chu Ning promptly comforted her:

"Zijin, it doesn’t matter if the magical treasure is destroyed; when we return to the sect, I will help you refine another."

As he spoke, Chu Ning pointed to the turtle shell in Cen Zijin’s hand:

"Take this for self-defense."

Cen Zijin nodded slightly; the turtle shell had been given to her by Chu Ning to use numerous times, but today she truly witnessed its formidable aspects.

Facing spells from two Middle Stage Nascent Soul Cultivators, this turtle shell remained unharmed, which greatly surprised Cen Zijin.

Thinking about this, a trace of doubt flashed across Cen Zijin’s face and she said:

"Were the two seniors from the alliance attacking us just now suspecting us to be accomplices of the Outer Celestial Demon?"

Chu Ning did not answer directly but looked towards Jiang Cheng and He Feng.

The two renowned Golden Core Cultivators from Guiyuan Sect instantly turned pale.

Jiang Cheng immediately shook his head, saying:

"Fellow Daoist Chu, we truly did not know, Junior Martial Uncle Lu did not inform us either."

As he spoke, Jiang Cheng’s eyes showed a tint of caution.

And the other Golden Core Cultivator from Taihe Institute was even contemplating retreating backwards at this moment.
