Ning lifted his hand and a ball of light flew into the dark sky that suddenly exploded to turn into a map.
It was a map of the Heaven's Court continent.
"Everyone, listen up," Ning shouted toward the thousands of people who were rowdy as a flea market. They finally shut up after seeing the map and looked toward Ning.
"This is the map of this continent. There are 3 continents in this world, but this is the one I've brought you to. This is a massive piece of land so you won't have to live inside water again," Ning said. "However, as a result of coming here, you will no longer be able to become a fish anymore."
"Burn this image into your mind and go find the closest human civilization and try to find a home for you. If you can't, make one in the forests. Everything you need is up here. If you don't understand something, I'm sure there are those amongst you that understand it well, so let them explain. And if possible, try to follow the lead of someone who ascended from a similar world so you won't get lost."
"That is all I will be helping you with, good luck."
Ning took Blue, Anya, and Rowan and teleported away, leaving the tens of thousands of people there in a bit of disarray. However, these people very soon found a way out of there by following the map in the sky and walked towards the various human civilizations that were listed on it. As long as they got close to those cities or villages, they could find something to do and find a way to live in this world.
Ning arrived outside the portal to the secret realm in the Nightfall city and entered it. He walked into the Origin along with the other 3 who were immediately delighted to see such a vibrant place again.
At the same time, they all noticed each other.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWaterworks started again and Ning stood to the side as everyone got together to reunite after a long time. This was something he had seen far too many times and somehow he still smiled when he saw it.
Even Ely was smiling and crying while hugging Anya and Blue. Blue tried to appear stoic, but he was soft at the heart without a doubt.
Anya and Rowan hugged their daughters and grandchildren and one by one they started introducing their own children and grandchildren.
Ning saw Iris frightened and nervous about meeting her own Great Great Grandmother who she had never seen before. She had heard so much about her and finally, she was meeting her.
A few minutes later, one of the came and dragged Ning into their group where they all hugged each other with a happy smiles on their face.
Ning finally got some freedom nearly half an hour later and left the group with each other. At the same time, Ely came with him and started asking some questions.
"You got 2 at the same time, huh?" she said. "No wonder you were gone for so long."
"Well, that part was because I wasted some hours having some fun," Ning said. He told Ely about the matches in the arena where he fought until he was finally up against the champion, Blue.
"That sounds just like you," she said with a bit of a chuckle in her voice. "And then Anya's world must have taken some time because you were bringing so many people."
Everyone was already aware of that information as Anya hadn't stopped talking about it once she had returned.
"Yeah, I felt like letting them choose their way of life. Not many chose to leave," Ning said and shook his head. "Anyway, I need to go save someone else's life."
"Who? Night? Is he in trouble?" Ely asked with a worried look on her face.
"No, it's not Night. Night is fine, I'm talking about Varsil," Ning said. "He has been a mortal for far too long and has been waiting for me to bring him back some cure. I need to treat him."
"Oh, thank god it's not about Night," she said. "Alright, go help him."
Ning nodded and called Halios.
"What can I do?" Halios asked.
"Call Varsil," Ning said. "Tell him his bamboo is here."
"Okay," Halios said and went to call Varsil. A few minutes later, the mortal young man came up to Ning with an excited and hopeful look.
"Is it true? Did you find it?" he asked.
"Yes, I got it," Ning said and brought out the green bamboo from his storage. The bamboo was thin and about a meter long. Varsil used his alchemy knowledge to learn about bamboo but he had no idea. He had never seen anything like this before after all.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"What do I do? Make it into a pill?" Varsil asked.
"Well, no. We have to do something far more simple, but infinitely more painful," Ning said.
Varsil was a little scared. "Painful? What are we doing?" he asked.
Ning shook his head. "It's better if you are unconscious for this part," he said. In the next moment, Varsil fell to the ground after having lost consciousness.
"Well, here goes nothing."
Ning took the bamboo and drove it through the young man's stomach, cutting open the dantian slightly. He had made sure to damage it enough to release the energy held within, but not so much that it couldn't be healed at all.
At the same time, he continuously healed the young man as he knew just how fragile his body was, being thousands of years old.
The Heaven Devouring Bamboo got to work and devoured every single instance of Qi that was inside the young man's dantian. Soon enough, it emptied the dantian completely and then started draining the young man's blood and essence.
Ning quickly pulled it back out and healed the wound along the way.
The bamboo started devouring the energy from his own hand, and if he let it continue, it would certainly steal away all of his energy.
Ning chuckled and crushed it. The bamboo was destroyed and it could no longer devour any more energy.
