Chapter 187: Going to the Phantom Blood Sect, Feng Changge
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“There are nine high-level void realm martial artists in the Phantom Blood Sect.”
“Among them there is one sect master who is a half-step dao realm master, two deputy sect masters who are true intent realm martial artists, and the six elders who are common seal realm martial artists.”
Huang Zongshao spoke quickly.
Seeing this, Xiang Nanchun was anxious.
Huang Zongshao’s information could save his life, but what about himself?
Although he was a powerful alchemist, so was the person in front of him.
He didn’t seem to be of any use to Xu Ning.
“That’s all?”
This group of people was much weaker than Xu Ning had imagined.
“Are there no hidden masters in the Phantom Blood Sect? For example, the previous sect master and elders.”
Xu Ning asked cautiously.
“No.”
Huang Zongshao quickly shook his head. “Master Xu, our Phantom Blood Sect was just established 20 years ago. Our predecessor was a large horse bandit gang. At that time, the elders of the horse bandit gang who did not support Feng Changge’s establishment of a sect were all killed by him. Thus, the strongest person in the Phantom Blood Sect now is Feng Changge.”
“Is that so…”
Xu Ning now understood why the Phantom Blood Sect had always regarded the Yuelan Sect as their enemy, yet the Yuelan Sect didn’t pay any attention to them.
The gap between the Yuelan Sect and the Phantom Blood Sect was pretty huge.
“Let me ask you again, does Feng Changge have a dao weapon?”
Xu Ning asked again. If Feng Changge had a dao weapon, his true strength would be higher.
“He has a damaged dao weapon.”
Huang Zongshao said, “He obtained the damaged dao weapon from the mysterious mystic realm.”
‘Only a damaged dao weapon…’
Xu Ning felt relieved.
If Feng Changge only had a damaged dao weapon, then there was nothing to fear.
The difference between a damaged dao weapon and a complete dao weapon was too great.
‘According to what Huang Zongshao said, I really do have a chance to sneak into the Phantom Blood Sect…’
Xu Ning did not doubt Huang Zongshao’s words.
Now that the Hook Heart Pill was still in Huang Zongshao’s body, Xu Ning could easily sense his emotions.
If he was lying, Xu Ning would immediately notice.
‘With my current strength, even if I expose myself in the Phantom Blood Sect, I won’t die.’
Xu Ning thought to himself. ‘Feng Changge is only a half-step dao realm master. Although I can’t defeat him with a dao weapon, it’s not difficult to protect my life. Moreover, I should be able to gather 8,000 units of energy to advance the Water Cross Sword and the Bright Fire Sword to the ninth level. The combination of these two secret techniques is extremely lethal.’
“Huang Zongshao, since you are so honest, I won’t kill you for the time being.”
Huang Zongshao was relieved.
“Thank you, Master Xu.”
In order to protect his life, Huang Zongshao no longer cared about anything.
“Xiang Nanchun.”
Xu Ning’s voice made Xiang Nanchun tremble.
He had nothing to offer.
“Master Xu…”
Xiang Nanchun’s heart skipped a beat.
“Are you willing to listen to my orders?”
Xu Ning asked.
“I’m willing to do anything for Master Xu!”
Xiang Nanchun did not let go of this opportunity.
“Okay, in this case, in a few days, you and Huang Zongshao will cover my trip to the Phantom Blood Sect.”
Xu Ning said his intention.
Huang Zongshao and Xiang Nanchun looked at each other and responded at the same time.
They could not guess what Xu Ning was thinking, but right now, they had no choice but to follow Xu Ning’s orders.
“By the way, do you have anything valuable on you? Give it to me.”
Xu Ning had not looted the two people in front of him yet. And since he needed some energy now, they should be able to provide some help.
Huang Zongshao and Xiang Nanchun quickly took out some of their belongings.
They didn’t have a storage space, so they didn’t take out much stuff.
Xu Ning picked and chose, only leaving behind some medicinal pills and spirit medicine for them. His harvest in total provided him with less than 1000 units of energy.
‘It seems that I have to sell pills or even borrow some pills to gather 8,000 units of energy…’
Xu Ning thought in his head.
…
More than a month had gone by.
Xu Ning, Huang Zongshao, and Xiang Nanchun got off Little Gray’s back.
“Master Xu, we will reach the Phantom Blood Sect in half an hour.”
Huang Zongshao said respectfully.
Xu Ning nodded and sent Little Gray away.
Now that they were almost at the Phantom Blood Sect, Little Gray was a burden.
“Your Phantom Blood Sect is really secretive.”
Xu Ning sighed.
Because the Phantom Blood Sect had too many enemies, they had set up many strongholds.
A headquarters with a sect master or elder overseeing it was extremely difficult to find. If it weren’t for Huang Zongshao, Xu Ning would have had to spend a lot of effort to find it.
“There are too many enemies. If it weren’t for the fact that we have many bases, we would have been destroyed long ago.”
Huang Zongshao gave an apologetic smile and said.
“Do you guys still remember the instructions I have given?”
Xu Ning glanced at Huang Zongshao and Xiang Nanchun.
“We do.”
The two said in unison.
Xu Ning had already arranged for him to act as Xiang Nanchun’s follower.
With this identity, he could sneak in naturally.
“Okay, in this case, let’s continue.”
Xu Ning was quite confident. In order to get close to Feng Changge and find out more about the mystic realm, he had made sufficient preparations.
In order to make the two listen to him more, Xu Ning made them ingest many mixed poisonous pills. If it weren’t for Xu Ning’s special antidote, they would find it hard to survive.
Moreover, Xu Ning had used various methods to gather 8,000 units of energy, raising the Water Cross Sword and the Bright Fire Sword to the ninth level.
Finally, in order to hide his identity, Xu Ning refined an extremely high-quality Breath Restraining Pill and a special medicinal powder that could change his appearance.
The current Xu Ning was displaying the strength of a void realm third stage martial artist.
At the same time, his appearance changed from firm and handsome to an ordinary appearance.

Although no one should recognize him in the Phantom Blood Sect, Xu Ning still acted cautiously.
“Greetings, Deputy Sect Master Huang!”
When the three of them arrived at the camp of the Phantom Blood Sect, the disciples guarding the gates saluted Huang Zongshao respectfully.
‘This is the Phantom Blood Sect?’
Xu Ning observed.
The Phantom Blood Sect was built under a valley, with clouds and fog lingering above it. Even if one passed by here, it was difficult to find the specific location without carefully searching.
“Is the Sect Master in the sect?”
Huang Zongshao’s posture was completely different from when he faced Xu Ning.
“He is.”
The disciple responded cautiously. He was afraid of this deputy sect master.
“Please.”
Huang Zongshao entered the sect .
Xu Ning and Xiang Nanchun followed behind Huang Zongshao, entering the Phantom Blood Sect.
“Huh?”
As he walked, Xu Ning noticed that the disciples of the Phantom Blood Sect were all restless.
This was especially true for some mortal realm warriors who had a bloody smell on their bodies.
From time to time, they would see some disciples dragging people in ragged clothing into rooms, followed by screams.
Xu Ning snorted.
Most of the demonic techniques practiced by the Phantom Blood Sect were supplemented with human blood.
Most of these people were captured from the outside world, or were captured as their enemies.
Huang Zongshao also noticed Xu Ning’s dissatisfaction, and his heart almost jumped out of his throat.
He kept glancing back, afraid that Xu Ning would suddenly explode from anger and slap him to death.
Fortunately, Xu Ning did not do anything.
But in his heart, Xu Ning had a firm plan to completely annihilate the Phantom Blood Sect.
Whether it was personal feelings or his status as a disciple of the Yuelan Sect, Xu Ning didn’t want to see a sect like the Phantom Blood Sect rooted in the land of the seventeen states.
Soon, Huang Zongshao brought Xu Ning and Xiang Nanchun to a stone hall before walking in.
As soon as he walked in, Xu Ning saw a man lying on a high couch on the stairs in the empty hall.
Beside him, there were several young women in gauze clothing, carefully serving him.
“Greetings, Sect Master!”
Huang Zongshao was obviously a little afraid of this person. He quickly took Xu Ning and Xiang Nanchun a few steps forward and greeted him.
“Deputy Sect Master Huang, you’re finally back!”
When the man saw Huang Zongshao bringing people in, he casually pushed the woman next to him away.
He stood up and walked down from the high couch.
He was wearing a gray robe and his long hair flowed on his back. His eyes and lips were covered in black dye, giving off a crazy and arrogant feeling.
‘So he is Feng Changge…’
Xu Ning began to suppress his aura.
He had swallowed several high level Breath Restraining Pills, restraining his aura to the extreme.
Thus, Feng Changge didn’t notice anything wrong with Xu Ning.
“Brother Xiang, after so many years, we finally meet again!”
Feng Changge walked to Xiang Nanchun’s side and said enthusiastically, “It’s all up to you to refine the Demon Blood Great Pill!”
“Sect Master Feng, don’t worry, I will do my best to refine the Demon Blood Great Pill and help you become a dao realm master.”
Xiang Nanchun also made a gesture.
“Okay! When I advance to the dao realm, you will definitely receive generous gifts!”
Feng Changge was very satisfied with Xiang Nanchun’s attitude.
Afterwards, Feng Changge turned his gaze to Xu Ning and looked at him carefully.
“This is?”
Feng Changge asked.
“Sect Master Feng, this is my follower, Alchemy Assistant Tao.”
When Xiang Nanchun saw this, he quickly explained, “I heard from Deputy Sect Master Huang that this Demon Blood Great Pill is extremely difficult to refine. It may be difficult for me to refine it alone, so I brought Alchemist Tao here to help me.”
Feng Changge didn’t suspect anything.
“So you are Alchemist Tao.”
Feng Changge said to Xu Ning, “When refining the Demon Blood Great Pill, please do your best, Alchemist Tao. When the pill is done, I will give you generous gifts as well.”
“In that case, thank you, Sect Master Feng.”
Xu Ning responded humbly.
“Okay, Deputy Sect Master Huang, arrange residences for Alchemist Xiang and Alchemist Tao first.”
Feng Changge said, “At night, I will gather all the elders of the sect and personally welcome you two.”

“Tomorrow, we will discuss refining the Demon Blood Great Pill.”
“Understood.”
Huang Zongshao responded.
Afterwards, he left with the two.
“Demon Blood Great Pill will be done soon!”
Feng Changge laughed loudly in the stone hall.
