570: Chapter 570 Return to Scarcity

As the electromagnetic waves dissipated, Nie Ning's figure was also revealed.

However, Nie Ning's condition was not good; the left half of his body was burned over a large area, and the bone on his left arm could even be vaguely seen.

A flash of cold light crossed Nie Ning's eyes.

Terrifying magic power erupted from the crystal core, and his entire body rapidly expanded, transforming into a frost dragon.

As white firelight gathered in his mouth, a thick white beam of light shot out.

Absolute Zero Atomic Dragon Breath!

Feeling that terrifying energy fluctuation, Ogden instantly summoned several barriers to block in front of him, and sacrificed a square iron shield mystic tool.

But in the face of the condensed dragon breath, the iron shield mystic tool only lasted for a single breath before shattering with a bang, followed by the energy barriers in front of Ogden.

Just at this moment, a voice reached Nie Ning's ears, and Nie Ning's mind also recovered a trace of clarity accordingly.

Glancing at Audrey in the distance with his huge dragon eyes, Nie Ning ultimately restrained his own magic power.

Even so, under the terrifying power of the Absolute Zero Atomic Dragon Breath, the barriers shattered layer by layer, and then slammed into Ogden's body.

"Boom!"

The ground collapsed, smoke and dust filled the air, leaving only a crater hundreds of meters deep in place.

At this time, Ogden was lying in the pit.

Although covered in injuries, he was not seriously hurt.

Nie Ning returned to his original appearance, looking at Ogden who was struggling to stand up, with a trace of a smile on his face.

"Our strengths are about the same, and continuing to fight would hurt our harmony. How about we call a truce here?"

Ogden forcefully suppressed the injuries on his body, stared at Nie Ning for a long time, and finally slowly spoke: "It is my strength that is lacking. Extreme Phase Demon Palace truly lives up to its reputation."

As his voice fell, Ogden flew directly away from the experimental area.

And the surrounding people of the Crimson Holy Blade had no cheers; their gazes toward Nie Ning all carried a hint of hostility.

Regarding this, Nie Ning was quite helpless.

That is to say, some matters are really troublesome.

Clearly he had won, and others had challenged him, yet it made him feel as if he had done something wrong...

Nie Ning glanced at Audrey and couldn't help sighing inwardly.

It was indeed his fault. Who told him not to resist the temptation? He could only blame himself for not investigating clearly whether Audrey was already married back then.

One could only say that a mature woman's temptation was indeed quite large, even if he didn't know...

"Let's go, I'll take you to a resting place to change your clothes."

Audrey shouted to Nie Ning, then turned and walked outside.

Nie Ning shook his head slightly, then quickly followed.

...

The next day, morning.

In front of a huge Teleportation Array, only a few people stood.

Nie Ning looked back and saw not a single familiar person; even Audrey had not come over.

Without thinking, he knew that yesterday's events must have caused the Crimson Holy Blade to lose face, and since it wasn't convenient to punish him, it turned out this way.

As for Audrey, she didn't look like someone who couldn't come to see him off.

At least yesterday the two were chatting and laughing, so it was highly likely she was delayed by something, though what that something was, was hard to say.

Regarding this, Nie Ning didn't say much. Who told him to be a nobody in Extreme Phase Demon Palace?

If it were Amivika who came, as a disciple of the Extreme Academy, even if she won against the opponent, there would be nothing much to say, and it wouldn't cause too much loss of face.

After exchanging pleasantries with the person activating the Teleportation Array, Nie Ning stepped onto the Teleportation Array.

Following that, a blue light flashed, and Nie Ning had already disappeared within the Teleportation Array.

...

When Nie Ning opened his eyes, he had arrived at a small town wrapped in a huge blue barrier.

Unlike other places, the entire town was filled with rich life energy.

Looking into the distance, the town was filled with the sounds of birds and the fragrance of flowers, presenting a scene full of vitality.

Nie Ning looked around and saw several places wrapped in small barriers, inside which many rare flowers and plants were planted, and people were tending to the herbs inside.

Seeing this, Nie Ning couldn't help sighing.

Normally speaking, even if Saint-Ville World didn't have too many powerhouses, it wouldn't be so barren during such an era of elemental explosion.

The main reason was this place, an area that extracted Power of the World as fuel to cultivate various spiritual plants and immortal herbs.

Due to destroying the elemental balance of this world, the weak Power of the World caused the Elemental Power to become even more violent, unable to be absorbed by the Transcendent here.

A large amount of star marrow was converted into energy to water the spiritual plants. In less than a thousand years, this world would probably collapse or even be destroyed by the elemental radiation emitted by the stars.

And after the world's destruction, the living beings inside would either perish with the world or be transferred to other worlds.

However, this was also an inevitable trend.

If external resources were not exploited, the Wizard World formed by Belvis World would probably collapse sooner or later, and at that time, powerful Transcendent would only become landless alien wanderers roaming everywhere.

...

"Greetings, My Lord. I wonder if My Lord would like to rest for a moment?"

A Fourth-Order Wizard dressed in white robes walked to Nie Ning's side and asked respectfully while bowing.

Nie Ning waved his hand in refusal.

"No need, you just need to prepare for the return trip. I should be back in a couple of days."

"Then respectful farewell, My Lord."

Immediately, the white-robed wizard welcomed Nie Ning to the gate of the barrier.

Nie Ning discerned the direction, then transformed into a stream of light and fled into the distance.

...

Due to limited time, Nie Ning didn't plan to stay long, so he flew straight towards Ska City.

After spending half a day, he finally hurried to Ska City.

Just like when he left, Ska City hadn't changed much.

Nie Ning didn't alarm the wizards in the city, but went directly to the area where Borton lived.

At a single glance, Nie Ning saw a little girl playing at the doorway, and a white-haired elderly man lying on the rocking chair next to her.

Borton!

Seeing this, Nie Ning frowned slightly. This was somewhat different from what he had thought.

Although he had left for several years, Borton was still doing well when he originally left, and didn't look like he was about to die.

"Haven't seen you for a time, how did you become like this?"

Nie Ning walked slowly towards Borton and couldn't help asking.

Hearing the familiar voice, Borton couldn't help slowly opening his eyes.

Upon seeing Nie Ning, a look of pleasant surprise appeared on Borton's face.

Struggling to sit up, a smile appeared at the corner of Borton's mouth: "It's you. I thought I wouldn't be able to see you before I die."

"What is wrong with you? Weren't you fine last time? Why do you look like you're about to die?"

Nie Ning came to Borton's side, used earth control to create a small stool, and sat down.

"People grow old, and resistance is poor. Getting a minor illness is normal."

Borton said slowly with a smile on his face.

Being able to see Nie Ning now could be considered fulfilling a wish.

Hearing this, Nie Ning nodded thoughtfully.

The Transcendent World did not mean people wouldn't get sick, and once they fell ill, it was basically no small illness, especially regarding afflictions affecting Transcendents.
