Chapter 123: Void Realm Achieved!
The days went by quickly.
Xu Ning’s body was still undergoing its transformation in his small room.
Unbeknownst to him, the inner disciples of the Seven Boxers received one shocking news after another.
Xiao Qiyun, the Leader of the Seven Boxers, and the four void realm second stage: true qi realm martial artists who went to follow him to capture a void realm demon beast, were all missing.
The news was that they were likely to have died.
At Guo Yuechun’s residence.
Shen Qiulun, who had been defeated by Xu Ning in the past, quickly came over.
Shen Qiulun acted swiftly, but his face was pale and his lips were colorless. He had not completely recovered from his injuries yet.
“Yuechun, Yuechun!”
Shen Qiulun shouted from the courtyard. “Open the door, something big has happened!”
Guo Yuechun was practicing her secret scroll, but after being startled by Shen Qiulun, she had an impatient look on her face.
But when Shen Qiulun said that something big had happened, she took the initiative to go downstairs and open the door.
“What’s the matter?”
Guo Yuechun let Shen Qiulun in, but she looked annoyed.
Two days ago, Shen Qiulun made her lose a lot of face, and Guo Yuechun was still angry about it.
“Something happened to Senior Brother Xiao and the others!”
Shen Qiulun closed the courtyard door and went inside the house.
“Senior Brother Xiao is in trouble?”
Guo Yuechun’s face changed. She didn’t care about Shen Qiulun anymore. “What happened, speak.”
“I learned from our inner sect deacon that Senior Brother Xiao and the other four true qi realm brothers all disappeared during the process of capturing a void realm demon beast. Now the faction inferred that they have…”
Shen Qiulun paused before lowering his voice. “That they have died.”
“What?!”
When Guo Yuechun heard his words, her whole demeanor immediately changed.
The news that Shen Qiulun brought was so shocking that Guo Yuechun couldn’t react for a while.
“Um…”
Guo Yuechun was still a little stunned at that moment.
“Yuechun, what should we do next?”
Shen Qiulun asked. He was Guo Yuechun’s most loyal follower in the inner sect.
Guo Yuechun pursed her lips, her expression serious as she began to think. She was obviously thinking about how to deal with the situation.
“Now that the most powerful people in the Seven Boxers are missing, is it your turn to take the lead?”
Shen Qiulun urged, “There are only a few void realm martial artists present right now, and you are one of them. If you seize the opportunity, you will finally gain the power to speak. Moreover, you can also use the aura fountains as you wish.”
Guo Yuechun sneered when she heard his words. She looked at Shen Qiulun in contempt.
“Aura fountains?”
Guo Yuechun said, “Senior Brother Xiao is no longer here. Do you think the Seven Boxers can still protect their four aura fountains? Forget about the aura fountains, it would be amazing if we can survive the invasion from other inner sect forces!”
“Um…”
Shen Qiulun’s judgment was clouded, but after Guo Yuechun reminded him, his head was clear again.
“What do we do then? If the Seven Boxers does not have Xiao Qiyun and those masters, then we are just prey in the eyes of other inner sect groups. Not only will they take away the aura fountains, but the other resources will also be taken away.”
Guo Yuechun was also worried about Shen Qiulun’s concerns.
After a long time, she seemed to have made a decision. She slowly said, “We can’t stay in the Seven Boxers anymore.”
“What?”
Shen Qiulun didn’t seem to expect that Guo Yuechun would make such a decision.
“In the near future, if other inner sect groups attack the Seven Boxers, the Seven Boxers will definitely be eaten alive. We will not only receive no benefits, but also lose our resources. Our relationship with the people of other groups will also weaken.”
Guo Yuechun said, “At the end of it all, we have to get out of the Seven Boxers. And yes, the sooner the better.”
“Leave the Seven Boxers…”
Shen Qiulun hesitated. “But we’ll have no protection and no resources for cultivation.”
He had gained a lot of benefits from the Seven Boxers, so he was very reluctant to give up these resources by just leaving.
“Who said we’ll have no protection?”
Guo Yuechun sneered. “Seven Boxers isn’t the only group in the inner sect, right?”
Shen Qiulun’s eyes lit up. “Yes!”
“Then where are we going?”
Shen Qiulun asked again.
“Go to the Knife Moon Crowd.”
Guo Yuechun immediately gave the name of the next group. “I was once friends with Gu Zhiyin from the Knife Moon Crowd. He can introduce us to the Knife Moon Crowd.”
“Knife Moon Crowd…”
Shen Qiulun’s eyebrows tightened. “This…”
In the inner sect, the competition between Seven Boxers and Knife Moon Crowd was the fiercest.
There was a lot of friction between the two groups.
If they left the Seven Boxers and went to the Knife Moon Crowd, it would be equivalent to them surrendering to their enemies.
After seeing Shen Qiulun’s hesitation, Guo Yuechun sarcastically said, “Look at how hesitant you are! If you don’t want to go, I will go by myself. I don’t want to be stuck in a place with no resources and no future.”
“Okay.”
In the end, Shen Qiulun agreed with Guo Yuechun’s plan.
“It’s not too late, so let’s act now.” Guo Yuechun said, “Move fast, we can still take the initiative.”
“If we bring this news to the Knife Moon Crowd first, they may even treat it as a favor and take advantage of it.”
Guo Yuechun’s face showed a trace of ruthlessness.
…
Xu Ning didn’t know about the changes in the Seven Boxers.
He was still in a flow-like state, accepting the transformation of his body.
Finally, six days went by.
Xu Ning, who had been in a coma, suddenly opened his eyes.
‘My body…’
Xu Ning felt the drastic changes in his body.
He stood up, stretched his body, took a deep breath, and exhaled.
‘This feeling…’
Xu Ning felt that his body had completely transformed.
‘Void realm martial artist!’
If he was a wild rabbit in the past, then he was now a fierce lion.
Just by relying on the strength of his body and without using his internal qi, Xu Ning could completely defeat his former self!
Xu Ning looked down at his tough skin.
He knew very well that even a mortal realm ninth stage: spirit realm warrior could not break through his void realm physical defenses.
Although it was only a difference of realm, the gap in strength between the two realms was enormous.
‘Mold body realm transformation complete!’
Xu Ning noticed that warm internal qi was accumulating in his abdominal cavity.
‘My two fire and water secret techniques have begun to change my body, especially fire…”
When Xu Ning closed his eyes and released his perception, he could clearly notice that a faint fiery qi was attached to his meridians, muscles and bones.
It burned the impurities in Xu Ning’s body, making his body purer and more powerful.
This was the body-building power of the Flame Breath Bone Sutra.
It allowed his already powerful body to become even stronger.
Xu Ning swiped his finger sharply against his arm.
Xu Ning’s skin was torn, even his flesh and blood were visible.
But afterwards, Xu Ning felt a burning sensation near his wound.
The fiery qi in his abdominal cavity suddenly became active.
Immediately after that, the deeply torn wound began to heal.
Soon after, the wound completely closed, leaving only a faint scar, which was gradually fading away.
‘The healing power of the Flame Breath Bone Sutra is too strong.’
Prior to this, Xu Ning was a little worried that as his physical strength increased, the harder it would be for the Flame Breath Bone Sutra to heal his injuries.
But now, it seemed that there was no reason to worry.
Although the strength of his body had increased, after advancing to the void realm, the power of his Flame Breath Bone Sutra had also become stronger.
In his abdominal cavity, the fiery qi from the Cold Flame Dual Source Scroll had given a great boost to the Flame Breath Bone Sutra.
‘The Flame Breath Bone Sutra has become powerful, but what about Tidal Fist?’
Xu Ning threw out a quadruple strength punch in the air.
At the same time, the watery qi in Xu Ning’s body suddenly became agitated.
Bang!
There was a sound of an explosion in the air!
‘There is more aftershock in my punch!’
Xu Ning felt the difference.
Prior to this, when he punched and hit the enemy with his strength, his punch was done.
But now, after his punch hit an enemy, in addition to the initial impact, there was also a follow-up dark force.
It was like the waves in the sea. After one turbulent wave, another wave followed.
‘One punch, two impacts…’
This was equivalent to two punches.
‘Is this what a void realm martial artist can do!’
Xu Ning wanted to look up to the sky and laugh out loud.
This sudden increase in strength made Xu Ning feel intoxicated.
‘Martial Arts Panel!’
Xu Ning thought.
Immediately, the Martial Arts Panel appeared in front of Xu Ning’s eyes.

Xu Ning’s Martial Arts Panel had become a long list.
Xu Ning winced.
‘This list seems to be very cumbersome.’
External and internal skills were useless to Xu Ning now.
Xu Ning started to hide some of skills from the Martial Arts Panel. “Simplify the panel!”
Soon after, Xu Ning’s Martial Arts Panel was refreshed again.
—
Name: Xu Ning
Martial Arts:
Cold Flame Dual Source Scroll (Void realm first stage: mold body realm)+
Tidal Fist (Third level) +
Flame Breath Bone Sutra (Third level) +
Available energy: 70 units

The Martial Arts Panel now looked much neater, which made Xu Ning quite satisfied.
‘The ‘+’ next to Tidal Fist and the Flame Breath Bone Sutra has appeared again.’
Prior to this, he could not advance his secret techniques beyond the third level.
But now that he had reached the void realm, watery and fiery qi were now being produced in his body, so this restriction was lifted.
‘I’m a void realm martial artist. I can now go home.’
Xu Ning suddenly looked to the north, which was the direction of State Feiyun.
Xu Ning now had the strength to cross State Jifeng. It was not difficult to return to his hometown anymore.
The only thing that made Xu Ning hesitant was that he now was a disciple of the Yuelan Faction.
He had yet to enjoy higher level resources such as aura fountains.
Xu Ning was not sure if he returned to State Feiyun, he would still have the qualifications to join the Source Faction.
If he didn’t have the qualifications, then he wouldn’t have a place to obtain resources anymore.
Moreover, the three Wei family members were captured with him. If he returned on his own, the members of the Wei family might be suspicious of him.
After weighing his options for a while, Xu Ning finally planned it out.
‘I have to return home, but I can’t lose my identity as a Yuelan Faction disciple.’
‘The most important thing for me is to return to State Feiyun and let my family know that I am safe outside.’
Xu Ning thought, ‘So even if I return to State Feiyun, there is no need to contact the people in Yunying City. I can return there quietly, and after seeing my family, I will come back.’
‘It’s just that the disciples of the Yuelan Faction need a reason to leave for a long time. If I rushed back home from here and traveled at full speed, I would need at least half a year, unless I have the bird demon beast like the one that the old woman who captured me had. If I have a demon beast like that, it will save me a lot of time.’
Xu Ning thought, ‘But right now, I can’t capture a flying demon beast. I’ll see if Grey can help me catch a void realm flying beast.’
Xu Ning decided not to go back for now.
‘When the time is right, I can arrange everything and go home to see my family.’
‘I will definitely go back.’
Xu Ning whispered to himself.
He was very clear that what he had to do next, was to constantly obtain more resources and improve his strength.
Squeak!
Xu Ning pushed open the door.
After taking a breath of fresh air, Xu Ning felt a lot more comfortable.
“Qinghe.”
Xu Ning knocked on the door next door. He was ready to tell Gu Qinghe that his retreat was over.
“Xu Ning?”
Before Gu Qinghe opened his door, a voice came from inside the room.
“Your retreat is over?”
Gu Qinghe opened the door and scanned Xu Ning from the top to bottom.
He felt that Xu Ning was a little different compared to before. He seemed to be less sharp, giving people a sense of detachment.
“You didn’t really break through the void realm, right?”
Gu Qinghe twitched his mouth and asked tentatively.
“I did.”
Xu Ning smiled and patted Gu Qinghe on the shoulder.
Gu Qinghe rubbed his nose with his fingers.
Xu Ning had already advanced to the void realm before the Pure Source Dans from his family had arrived.
Even in the inner sect, a void realm martial artist was considered high-ranked.
After all, most of the people in the inner sect were still mortal realm warriors.
“Although I am a little jealous of you, but…”
Gu Qinghe smiled. “Having a void realm martial artist friend as a friend gives me a lot more confidence! From now on, I am a person protected by a void realm martial artist!”
Xu Ning shook his head and smiled.
“By the way, over the past few days, did anyone from the Seven Boxers come and find me?”
Xu Ning was afraid that Le Caiwei ended her retreat early and came to find him.
“Speaking of the Seven Boxers!”
Gu Qinghe suddenly remembered something. “Over the past few days, a major event has happened to the Seven Boxers!”
“Something big? What?”
Xu Ning’s eyebrows tightened.
“All of the leaders of the Seven Boxers, Xiao Qiyun and the four true qi realm martial artists, disappeared when they went to capture a void realm demon beast. Apparently, they were killed by a demon beast.”
Gu Qinghe explained.
“What?”
Xu Ning was very surprised.
Although he had never met Xiao Qiyun, he had learned some information about this person from Le Caiwei.
Xiao Qiyun was one of the most powerful inner disciples. He was well-respected by the disciples of the Seven Boxers.
Even Le Caiwei was respectful to him.
And now something like this suddenly happened.
Xu Ning thought.
“I have to find Le Caiwei.”
