The current Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit had been swept into a massive whirlpool, unable to extricate itself!
"If it hadn't been for Ning Xiaohui, I would never have revealed this vital information to Ning Zhuo!" The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit was quite reluctant. As it sighed, its expression suddenly changed dramatically, showing a look of fear.
"Mortal Thread of Life!"
"Ning Zhuo is in a critical situation, urgently needing key intelligence. He couldn't get it from Ning Jiufan, but he got it from ."
"The reason I must help him is because of Ning Xiaohui."
"Even though Ning Xiaohui hates Ning Zhuo, she too had been implanted with the Mortal Thread of Life. Her fate could also be used by Ning Zhuo!"
The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit was naturally quite familiar with the Life-hanging Divine Ability.
Realizing the hidden struggle of fate, mysterious changes and influences, it unconsciously retracted its head into its shell.
The Life-hanging Divine Ability in its complete form had already begun to take effect.
But few people could detect it!
Even the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit could only glimpse a corner of the influence and changes in fate.
...
Ning Zhuo fell into silence.
He understood the implication of the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit—the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit, being the Palace Spirit, was incapable of taking action against trial disciples, but he could!
The reason the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit notified him was because it knew Ning Zhuo could stop Ning Xiaohui.
The reason was simple.
The Mortal Thread of Life!
Ning Xiaohui had long been implanted with the Mortal Thread of Life by Ning Zhuo.
Once this divine ability was activated, it might lead to Ning Xiaohui's death.
"But all this needs careful planning."
Directly using the divine ability would inevitably provoke an investigation by Ning Jiufan.
Ning Xiaohui was a genius, possessing the Ice-jade Hands, and was the face of the main lineage in the Qi Refinent stage.
If she died, the entire Ning Family would be shaken.
The investigation by the Ning Family and Ning Jiufan was not the real threat; the true danger was Zhu Xuanji!
Given the current alliance between Zhu Xuanji and the three families, he would almost certainly participate in the subsequent investigation.
"Moreover, I still haven't had ti to ask the Fire Spirit about the Foundation Establishnt thod," Ning Zhuo sighed.
In his two urgent exchanges with the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit, he hadn't had the opportunity to inquire about the Foundation Establishnt thod to confirm his previous speculations.
Ning Zhuo licked his dry lips, stopped thinking about it, and imdiately entered the Immortal Palace with his soul.
He needed to contact Sun Lingtong imdiately.
Although there were other ways to contact him, for now, those thods could no longer be used.
"Zhu Xuanji asked a few questions and then left."
"He ca and went with great fanfare, giving three days to explain. It was all thunder and no rain!"
"This was very unlike his usual low-key style while investigating cases."
"So, it's very likely that he planted so kind of monitoring device on or in this room."
"Using conventional thods to contact Sun Lingtong would be self-exposure."
"Now my only hope is that Sun Lingtong is also in the Magma Immortal Palace!"
Since Ning Zhuo had brought Sun Lingtong into the trial checkpoint, he had subsequently obtained the identity of a trial disciple.
This ant he could freely enter and exit the Magma Immortal Palace.
When the puppet Ning Zhuo appeared in the first room, the puppet Sun Lingtong hiding in the corner imdiately ca over.
"What exactly happened? Why did Zhu Xuanji look for you?" Sun Lingtong asked urgently.
Although he was in the underground base, he always kept an eye on the external situation.
This major event had caused a huge uproar in the entire city, and Sun Lingtong quickly learned about it.
He imdiately realized that using the old thods to contact Ning Zhuo was too dangerous.
So, he imdiately set off, first entering the Magma Immortal Palace to wait.
He believed that if Ning Zhuo wanted to contact him, he would definitely use this thod.
Sure enough, he waited for Ning Zhuo! Ning Zhuo also contacted Sun Lingtong.
This was the tacit understanding ford by the two brothers over the past ten years!
"This is not the place to talk," Ning Zhuo said, leading Sun Lingtong deep into the Magma Immortal Palace.
They first arranged for the Golden Blood Battle Ape - Dasheng in the previous checkpoint, and after ensuring no one else was in the room, Ning Zhuo succinctly disclosed the details.
Sun Lingtong's reaction was as Ning Zhuo expected.
"Since Zhu Xuanji is investigating you and has given you three days, it's better to take this opportunity and run away directly."
"If you are found out, you will face severe punishnt under the laws of Southern Bean Country! The Ning Family definitely won't protect you; only the Bukong Sect will be relatively safe."
The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit, who had been eavesdropping, couldn't help but feel anxious upon hearing Sun Lingtong's suggestion.
If Ning Zhuo ran away, what would happen to it?
At this mont, the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit did not dare to speak out directly, only circling anxiously in the main hall.
It prayed silently, hoping Ning Zhuo would do the right thing, escaping only after dealing with Ning Xiaohui.
Ning Zhuo declined Sun Lingtong's suggestion.
"Elder Sun, you know I won't give up easily!"
"The Magma Immortal Palace is of great significance to ."
"And it isn't the ti of absolute desperation yet."
"I've already thought of so counterasures."
Sun Lingtong sighed. When he tried to persuade Ning Zhuo, he had already anticipated this response.
"Alright, tell your plan and what I can do to help."
Ning Zhuo told him to go to the secret base and assemble the Golden Core-level chanical Monkey.
By now, the manufacturing project dispatched outside by Ning Zhuo had been completed.
With the skeleton and armor already ready, Ning Zhuo would fill in the components he obtained from the Magma Immortal Palace, assembling them to create a Golden Core-level chanical Monkey.
"Currently, we urgently need Golden Core-level combat power to prevent any unforeseen events!"
Sun Lingtong nodded, "I'll help you with the assembly."
The skeleton and armor were stored in the underground secret base.
Transferring the chanical components from Ning Zhuo's body posed so trouble.
However, based on their decade-long cooperation, coupled with black market smuggling and other rich experiences, it was only a hassle, not an impossible task.
"Additionally, Elder Sun, I need you to pose as Yang Chanyu and then as the Black Shadow Demon Cultivator."
Sun Lingtong nodded, "I'm quite familiar with Yang Chanyu, no problem."
"But I've never seen the Black Shadow Demon Cultivator..."
Ning Zhuo responded, "I've seen him personally."
"Since the Fire Persimmon Mountain incident, I had a premonition that I might need to use this identity to disguise myself for convenience. So I prepared so clothes in advance, hiding them in the underground secret base No. C."
Ning Zhuo then told Sun Lingtong the specific hiding place of these clothes.
Sun Lingtong morized it and couldn't help but pat Ning Zhuo's shoulder, "It's your style to be well-prepared, great, great."
Ning Zhuo continued, "The True Scripture has already been refined, becoming part of the Golden Blood Battle Ape."
"But there must be a True Scripture!"
"Elder Sun, can you forge a True Scripture?"
"To build trust, we can even incorporate the nine-layered Qi Refinent's Demon-infused Bloodline Technique."
Sun Lingtong pondered a bit, "I will do my best to forge the True Scripture, but I cannot guarantee the actual effect."
"After all, the people we aim to deceive are Golden Core-level, especially cunning individuals like Zhu Xuanji, who possess the Golden Eyes."
Ning Zhuo nodded and sighed, "I understand! Given the current situation, we can only do our best and leave the rest to fate."
"If sothing happens to , Elder Sun, please take the Golden Core-level chanical Monkey and escape imdiately."
"I expect I'll be detained by Zhu Xuanji and taken to be tried in the Southern Bean Country capital as a prisoner."
"If you remain free, you might be able to find a chance to rescue ."
"If possible, take both the Golden Blood Battle Ape - Dasheng and the Netherworld Envoy - Qi Bai with you."
"I have so treasure locations, you know the exact addresses."
"Oh, and I have a Treasure Seal..."
Ning Zhuo was about to reveal the existence of the Buddha Heart Demon Seal to Sun Lingtong when the latter raised a hand to stop him from saying more.
Sun Lingtong looked a bit angry, "Enough! Little Zhuo, we will succeed this ti."
At this mont, Sun Lingtong showed strong confidence and an even more determined fighting spirit than Ning Zhuo.
"In the past ten years, there's never been a challenge we couldn't overco together!"
"So, we will also get through this tough situation."
Ning Zhuo was montarily stunned, then laughed loudly three tis, patting Sun Lingtong's shoulder resolutely, "Elder Sun, you are absolutely right!"
Ning Zhuo and Sun Lingtong parted ways, both fully focused on exploring the path of the Demon Sect.
Sun Lingtong left him and returned to his body.
"Little Zhuo..." When alone, Sun Lingtong's face showed worry.
He knew those last words from Ning Zhuo were just an excuse to trick him into escaping alone.
It indicated that Ning Zhuo had no confidence in overcoming this challenge!
Sun Lingtong could fully understand.
If it were him, he would have even less confidence than Ning Zhuo.
This ti the situation was extrely perilous.
"Little Zhuo not only has to face Zhu Xuanji's investigation but also the life-or-death dilemma of Ning Xiaohui."
"His solution is quite risky, and the forged True Scripture is the most crucial tool."
"Can I really succeed?"
With this thought, Sun Lingtong grew even less confident.
After all, he was only at the Foundation Establishnt Stage, facing soone like Zhu Xuanji in such a manner for the first ti.
"There is soone more capable than ."
"Perhaps, I should seek her help?"
At that mont, Sun Lingtong thought of Yang Chanyu.
Yang Chanyu's cultivation was higher than his, being a True Disciple of the Bukong Sect at the Golden Core level.
Yang Chanyu cultivated the Old Cicada Technique, which was highly proficient in disguise.
Once the thought erged, Sun Lingtong could no longer suppress it.
He took a deep breath and quickly decided—to secretly seek Yang Chanyu's assistance.
He left the underground secret base quietly, looked up at the sky and sun, thinking that he had been cooped up in the underground base for so long. This ti he finally saw the daylight.
Walking stealthily through the alleys, following barely detectable secret marks, he soon found Yang Chanyu.
