Chapter 1805: Diverting trouble to the east
The Buddhist land is vast.
When Ye Ning and his group arrived in Nanzhanbuzhou, it was already half a day later.
Although Ye Ning did not use any great supernatural powers to travel, this was enough to illustrate how vast the Buddhist land was.
On the continent of Jambudvipa, there are many living beings, and cities can be seen everywhere.
Ye Ning could sense the auras of countless powerful figures, including those at the Divine Illumination level, Saint Venerables, and even occasionally, the aura of Great Saints.
As for stronger individuals, Ye Ning could not sense any powerhouses above the Great Sage level for the time being.
Such powerful individuals are rarely detected if they deliberately conceal their presence.
They found a relatively large city and were about to enter when a powerful figure wearing immortal armor stopped Ye Ning.
Ye Ning was somewhat puzzled, his gaze falling on the other person, waiting for them to speak.
The powerful figure wearing the immortal armor looked young, but his strength was at the Divine Illumination level.
His gaze sharpened as he scrutinized Ye Ning, then asked, "Do you have an identity token?"
Ye Ning's heart stirred, then he shook his head.
"Are you a practitioner from elsewhere?"
Ye Ning nodded, acknowledging his identity.
Upon hearing Ye Ning's words, the powerful figure clad in immortal armor frowned, his gaze towards Ye Ning filled with scrutiny and hostility.
However, he restrained himself from reacting and instead said directly to Ye Ning, "Since you are an outsider, please give me your identity token first."
Ye Ning nodded and followed the powerful figure in the immortal armor to a rock outside the city gate.
The stone was entirely black, emitting a faint golden glow. It was covered with handprints of varying depths, the shallowest of which were just faint traces on the surface.
Seeing the stone, Ye Ning became curious and couldn't help but pat it lightly.
The next moment, the black stone burst forth with a dazzling golden light, so bright that it blinded everyone at the city gate.
Seeing this scene, everyone was deeply moved, including the young man in the immortal armor.
At this moment, the way he looked at Ye Ning was as if he were looking at a monster.
Ye Ning was somewhat surprised, and then asked, "What is this? I just touched it lightly, without using any force. If I break it, don't blame me."
Upon hearing Ye Ning's words, the young man in the immortal armor looked strange. He shook his head and said, "This stone is used to test a cultivator's aptitude. The stronger the aptitude, the greater the reaction."
At this point, his gaze fell on the top of the black stone, where a newly formed handprint had almost pierced through it.
This left the young man in the immortal armor speechless, unable to utter a single word.
He knew in his heart that the potential displayed on the black stone was not the true potential of the person in front of him, because the black stone could only test this level of potential, while the person's potential might be even greater.
However, anyone who can leave even a trace on the black stone is considered a genius by them.
Realizing this, the young man in the immortal armor looked at Ye Ning with a gaze that shifted from initial hostility to shock, and even a hint of admiration.
Such a person with such great talent, even if their strength is still at the Star-Picking level, will surely be able to improve to a higher level in the future, and may even become an unparalleled powerhouse who dominates the winds and clouds in the starry sky.
Unfortunately, he was not from the Buddhist land.
Thinking of this, the young man couldn't help but shake his head.
"Please come and register your identity with me."
The young man spoke, and then they came to a desk where a cultivator was sitting.
Upon seeing a newcomer arrive, the cultivator immediately took out a jade tablet and had Ye Ning enter his identity information.
Ye Ning thought for a moment and entered his alias and some information into it. This time, he changed his alias to Ye Yi.
Upon seeing the name, the young man thought for a moment but had no recollection of it.
He didn't say much, but simply invited Ye Ning inside.
Ye Ning looked at the young man with suspicion and asked, "Why were you so hostile towards me from the beginning? It seems like this is the first time I've met you."
At this moment, the young man couldn't help but say, "Aren't you a trainee? You should be here to challenge the strongmen of our Buddhist Land."
Upon hearing this, Ye Ning finally understood. He smiled and said, "I am not the same group of trainees you mentioned. I am just here to discuss the Dao in the Buddhist Land. You could even say that I stumbled into this place by accident. Of course, I also need to train, but I don't necessarily have to fight with the people of the Buddhist Land. Those trainees are also my targets."
Upon hearing Ye Ning's words, the young man's eyes lit up.
Such a talented expert, if he were to face off against those who are undergoing trials, might be able to reduce a lot of the pressure on their Buddhist land.
Thinking of this, the young man immediately said, "You want to challenge those trainees? I know where they are. Do you want me to take you there?"
Seeing the young man's excited expression, Ye Ning nodded indifferently: "Sure, I'm also very curious about those trainees."
The young man chuckled and said directly, "Alright, then come with me. They're currently at Qingyun Tower. I'll take you to see them. If you don't like anyone, just challenge them. As for who you kill or cripple, we don't care."
Seeing the young man's excited expression, as if he couldn't wait to clash with the other trainees, Ye Ning simply smiled and didn't care.
Led by the young man, he arrived at the so-called Qingyun Tower.
Qingyun Tower turned out to be a brothel.
Of course, it's not like the pure selling of one's body in the mortal world.
Here, apsaras are dancing, their movements are captivating.
There were also some powerful figures playing the zither, the music containing profound truths that captivated and enchanted listeners, even offering the possibility of enlightenment.
"Has someone booked this place?"
Just as Ye Ning was about to step inside, he was stopped by someone.
A young man looked at Ye Ning with arrogance and disdain.
"This place has been booked out. Not just any trash can get in. You'd better leave immediately."
Ye Ning smiled slightly; he was not an unreasonable person.
The other party booked the entire venue. If they didn't want him to go in, he could have just spoken politely. But he's being so rude now. Does he really think he has no temper?
However, Ye Ning remained calm and said, "Since the place has been booked out, it's reasonable for us to leave. But you offended me with what you just said, so please apologize."
The young man guarding the gate sneered, his expression disdainful. He glanced at Ye Ning, a cultivator at the seventh level of the Star Picking Realm, and his expression immediately filled with contempt.
"Do you think you have the right to make a powerful expert at the Divine Illumination level apologize to a piece of trash at the Star-Picking level? Can you even bear the responsibility?"
The young man in the immortal armor stood aside. He had originally intended to divert trouble and wanted to see the other side fight, preferably to the point of mutual destruction. Naturally, he would not step forward at this time.
Ye Ning touched his chin, then slapped it out.
The next moment, the young man was sent flying and crashed into the Qingyun Tower.
The fact that a powerful expert at the Divine Illumination level couldn't withstand a single slap left the young man in the immortal armor dumbfounded.
He himself was only at the Divine Illumination level, and even for him, defeating the gatekeeper servant would not be so easy.
It's unbelievable that this young man named Ye Yi could so easily send his opponent flying.
He immediately realized that he had underestimated the other party.
