"You won't be able to escape!"
The grey-robed immortal emperor said in a gloomy tone. He lifted one of his fingers and pointed at Ning Fan. His fingertip flashed with grey light as if he was about to unleash some powerful divine ability. His Half-Step Quasi-Saint Realm aura swept across the entire place.
From the grey-robed immortal emperor's point of view, the reason why he could not take Ning Fan down with three consecutive attacks was because he had underestimated his enemy. Now that he was going to use his full strength, he was confident that he could take Ning Fan down.
As he pointed his finger, the surrounding continents instantly lost their colors. Everything that entered his sight was coated with grey.
Moreover, the moment the color of heaven and earth changed, the grey-robed immortal emperor seemed to have replaced the Heavenly Dao of the grey world he was in. It was as if he was the absolute king in this grey domain!
"This is … the power of a sovereign!"
Ning Fan's eyes widened in shock. It was not his first time seeing a sovereign immortal emperor. He had even seen the void of the sovereign realm of the monster with the eyeball and Daoist Mu Song. The grey-robed immortal emperor in front of him actually changed the color of the surrounding heaven and earth with his sovereign power and formed a domain that belonged to him. It was Ning Fan's first time seeing such a situation.
Dangerous. Extremely dangerous!
The sense of danger that the grey-robed immortal emperor gave him was not any weaker than the sense of danger he felt when the Radiance Buddha's qi descended upon him.
Considering the fact that this person had the qi of a Half-Step Quasi-Saint Realm expert, his identity was obvious …
"Could this person be the Lord of Spatial Flame … the strongest expert among the three flames who is on par with the Radiance Buddha?!"
"This person's sovereign power seems to be a little special. The traces of the Dao laws in it are all grey. I can't tell which type of Dao law it is …"
"Besides, if this person is really the Spatial Flame Death Emperor, according to the words of the few Heavenly Dao Souls of the lightning sparrows, this person should also possess the remnant soul of the Flame Ancestor who is ranked second among the five venerated beings of Great Inferiority! I can't be wrong. This grey-robed immortal emperor already gives me a very dangerous feeling. There seems to be an even more terrifying qi hidden in his body … It's the powerful qi of a Second Level Quasi-Saint! "
"I can't defeat this person!"
All of a sudden, countless grey and misty palm threads shot out from the surrounding grey heaven and earth. They entangled Ning Fan's four limbs and bound him tightly in the air.
Ning Fan's body began to lose control of itself. Even lifting a finger required a great amount of strength. The grey lines of his palm dug into his flesh, making him feel a faint pain. Grey-Robed Immortal Emperor's mocking eyes locked on Ning Fan from a few continents away, as if he was looking at an ant struggling before its death.
"I told you, you can't escape!"
That mocking voice reverberated across heaven and earth. Every time it reverberated, Ning Fan's blood and qi would churn.
Ning Fan's heart sank to the bottom.
Under the restraints of the palm lines, the protective golden light of the God Exterminating Shield in his body was actually suppressed, and it was difficult for it to materialize.
This was the first time he had encountered such a situation since he had obtained the God Destroyer Shield!
After all, the God Vanquishing Shield fragment that he possessed was only one of the six fragments. It wasn't the complete God Vanquishing Shield.
The power that a single fragment could display was limited. Moreover, Ning Fan, who was using this fragment, had a cultivation base that was far from the Immortal Emperor Realm. Against ordinary Immortal Emperors, perhaps Ning Fan could still use the power of the God Exterminating Shield to deal with them for a while. However, against Half-Step Quasi-Saint Realm old monsters, a fragment of the God Exterminating Shield was not enough …
Their current situation could only be described as hopeless! But so what if it was a hopeless situation! So what if it was the Void Flame Death Emperor!
Ning Fan would remember this grudge in his heart!
"Sea Defying, appear!"
Ning Fan could not move his body at all. Thus, he no longer tried to break free from the palm lines on his body. Instead, he shouted in a deep voice. As soon as he gave the order, the surrounding heaven and earth was immediately filled with sea breeze. In the salty sea breeze, a ray of blue sword light suddenly appeared. The body of the sword was imbued with the power of the Dao Execution Divine Sword, giving off an unfathomable feeling.
It was none other than Ning Fan's ancient diagram Dao Weapon – Sea Defying Sword!
The Sword Control Technique was a basic technique of cultivators. It was impossible for Ning Fan to not know it. Even though he could not move his physical body at the moment, it did not stop him from using his spirit sense to control the sword. However, due to the Sea Defying Sword being too heavy, Ning Fan usually used his physical strength to control it. It was his first time being forced to use his spirit sense to control the sword.
The Sea Defying Sword was too heavy. Controlling it with his spirit sense was a huge burden to Ning Fan. However, he could not care less about that at the moment. Under the control of his spirit sense, the Sea Defying Sword only needed to send out a few rays of Dao Execution sword light to split the Dao Execution Divine Sword that was binding his body. Under the disbelieving gaze of the grey-robed Immortal Emperor, Ning Fan regained his ability to move while withstanding the heavy power of the palm lines.
At the moment when he regained his mobility, he turned his hand and summoned a strange-looking dark cloud. As soon as he stepped on the cloud, his body immediately shot towards the other end of the sky. In just a split second, he ran out of the range of tens of mainlands that were covered by the power of the palm lines of the grey-robed Immortal Emperor.
His speed was extremely fast!
For the first time in his life, it was Ning Fan's first time achieving such speed with his own cultivation base!
"This young man has a lot of tricks up his sleeves. Don't underestimate him! Hurry up and chase after him. Don't let him get away! "The old voice in the grey-robed Immortal Emperor's body immediately sounded dissatisfied.
"Lord Flame Ancestor, don't worry. No matter how many tricks this young man has up his sleeves, he is just an Immortal Venerable. It's pure wishful thinking if he wants to run away from me!"
Even though he said that, the grey-robed Immortal Emperor's heart was actually filled with astonishment.
He had even used the power of the palm line but he actually failed to restrain a mere junior! The young man first used the Sword Controlling Technique to control the Dao Soldiers. Then, he used the Dao Soldiers to display some kind of strange sword technique and actually severed the Dao Law Thread of his palm line!
If this kind of thing happened to a Half-Step Quasi-Saint Realm expert at the same level as him, the grey-robed Immortal Emperor would not be too surprised. However, he found it a little unacceptable that an Immortal Venerable junior could do it.
A mere Immortal Venerable kid actually had the ability to resist his power of the palm line! This matter …
Moreover, after the young man severed the restraint of the palm line, he directly chose to escape on a cloud. He had no idea what kind of cloud he was riding on. His speed was simply unimaginably fast. With just a leap, he directly flew out of the range of the palm line of his palm line!
That was a distance of tens of mainlands!
Ordinary True Immortals would need at least a few months to travel across those mainlands. However, this young man actually crossed such a distance in just a flash!
Humph! Not bad!
The grey-robed Immortal Emperor's eyes narrowed. After confirming the direction where Ning Fan was escaping to, his body swayed and turned into a ray of grey light that pierced through heaven and earth, chasing after Ning Fan.
Escaping techniques had always been his advantage. He was quite confident in catching up to Ning Fan!
He was the fastest cultivator of the Great Humble Realm after the five venerated beings of the Great Humble Realm!
With just a leap, he could also fly across fifty to sixty ferocious mainlands! His speed was not much slower than the terrifying speed that Ning Fan displayed just now!
Close! Close! Close!
The distance between the grey-robed Immortal Emperor and Ning Fan was constantly getting closer. In the beginning, there were sixty to seventy mainlands between them. After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the distance between the two of them was only forty to fifty mainlands.
The grey-robed Immortal Emperor formed another hand seal and his speed increased a little more. After the time it takes for half an incense stick to burn, there were only sixteen to seventeen mainlands left between them.
Seeing that he would be able to catch up to Ning Fan soon and capture him, Ning Fan's speed suddenly increased without any reason!
Gradually, Ning Fan's speed became the same as the grey-robed Immortal Emperor's.
Gradually, Ning Fan's speed surpassed that of the grey-robed Immortal Emperor and the distance between them began to increase!
Twenty-seven mainlands …
Forty-nine mainlands …
Sixty-six mainlands …
Ninety-one mainlands …
One hundred and forty-seven mainlands …
After chasing for one hour, the distance between the grey-robed Immortal Emperor and Ning Fan actually increased to more than three hundred mainlands!
After chasing for another hour, Ning Fan had completely escaped out of the range of his spirit sense and completely disappeared …
The grey-robed Immortal Emperor's face turned extremely gloomy.
After losing track of Ning Fan, he searched for a long time in the surroundings but he could not find any trace of Ning Fan at all. He was completely unable to determine which direction Ning Fan had escaped to.
He was unwilling to admit it, but he had no choice but to admit that he, the dignified Skyflame Death Emperor, actually lost track of a mere Immortal Venerable external cultivator …
The Ferocious Domain was vast and sparsely populated. There were more than a million low-grade and mid-grade mainlands in it. At this moment, Ning Fan had already escaped from the lock-on of his spirit sense. All he needed to do was to hide in the vast mainlands and block off his karmic sense. Then, he would no longer be able to find Ning Fan's whereabouts.
No matter how powerful his means were, he would not be able to find a needle in a haystack!
"Humph! You actually let an Immortal Venerable junior get away! Your cultivation base is really wasted on a dog's body! "Inside the grey-robed Immortal Emperor's body, the elderly man scolded angrily.
The grey-robed Immortal Emperor was used to being in a high position. Of course, he was displeased to be scolded by others. However, he did not dare to lose his temper at the elderly man.
Instead, he said calmly, "That young man's escaping speed is unimaginably fast. With Lord Flame Ancestor's eyesight, it's impossible for him not to see through it. That young man's speed after his last burst was not much slower than a real First Level Quasi-Saint! Let alone me, even if a real First Level Quasi-Saint were to chase after him, he might not be able to catch up to him. That should be a rare flying Innate Magic Treasure in this world, right? That young man has so many means. He doesn't look like an Immortal Venerable junior at all. I suspect that this young man is also an existence similar to a reincarnated spirit body which is possessed by a Quasi-Saint old monster … "
"A slip up is a slip up. Don't look for any excuses! With my eyesight as a Saint Evil Corpse, I will definitely not be wrong. This young man has not lost his original self. He isn't some reincarnated spirit body! He is different from you! "The old voice snorted coldly.
"He isn't a reincarnated spirit body, but he actually has so many means …" The grey-robed Immortal Emperor's expression turned gloomy. He then asked, "According to Lord's perception, is it possible that this young man has the Second Formation of the Ancient Country?"
"I can't rule out this possibility, but it's not too likely. The Second Formation of the Ancient Country is the world's absolute secret. Even I have only seen Old Man Nan Yao use it from afar. I don't know the specific structure of the formation. What's the possibility of a mere Immortal Venerable knowing such a great secret of the world? Judging from the fluctuation of the formation, this young man should only be studying the Second Formation of the Ancient Country. Humph! Looking at my clan, there are many old men who study the Second Formation of the Ancient Country in private. Unfortunately, how many of them can get any results? This young man is not one more! However, there is a certain power in this young man that makes me a bit interested … Forget it, I was just passing by this place. Because I sensed something, I came to check it out. Since this young man has already run away, there is no need to chase after him. If I didn't sense it wrongly, you and I might be very busy in the following days. Just now, the crazy woman who is in a deep slumber in the Corpse Mountain Range actually showed signs of waking up again for some reason! You and I must rush back to the Void Flame immediately and head to the Corpse Mountain Range to reinforce the seal. If we hesitate and let this crazy woman wake up, you should know the consequences! "
"What?! Madam White Bones is actually going to wake up again? How many years has it been since she last woke up? "
Speaking of Madam White Bones, the eyes of the grey-robed Immortal Emperor actually revealed a trace of fear. It was really a little unbelievable that such an expression would appear on the face of an existence like him.
"Let's return to the Void Flame immediately!"
"… Yes."
…
On a certain uninhabited continent, Ning Fan withdrew his dark immortal cloud and descended to the ground with his magic power depleted.
After a difficult escape, he finally escaped from the pursuit of the grey-robed Immortal Emperor and completely shook him off.
After escaping, even Ning Fan himself found it a little unbelievable. He did not expect that he could actually succeed in his escape this time.
After all, if his guess was not wrong, the grey-robed Immortal Emperor was the strongest expert among the three flames. Moreover, his body even possessed the body of the Revered Being who was ranked second among the five great Revered Beings.
He was an existence that was even more dangerous than the Light Buddha!
Even Tu Huang would be captured when facing the Light Buddha, but Ning Fan could escape from the Death Emperor's hands. Doesn't this mean that Ning Fan's current ability to escape is even stronger than Tu Huang?
Hehe …
Having a strong ability to escape is not something to boast about … After all, escaping itself is a kind of humiliation. However, the reality was just that helpless. Under the absolute suppression of the other party's strength, Ning Fan could only choose to temporarily hide …
If it were any other Immortal Venerables who managed to escape from the pursuit of a dignified Half-Step Quasi-Sage, they would certainly be proud of themselves and list it as the most glorious achievement in their lives.
Such incidents were not uncommon in the cultivation world. For example, a cultivator in the Du Zhen Realm withstood a move and a half from a cultivator in the Shedding Void Realm, a cultivator in the Shedding Void Realm managed to escape from a cultivator in the Thought Breaking Void Realm and a cultivator in the Thought Breaking Void Realm managed to injure a corner of the Immortal Venerables' clothes …
Many people would boast about such an achievement of surpassing their cultivation realm.
Ning Fan, on the other hand, only felt indignant and angry!
Ning Fan's eyes flashed with cold light. Being chased by the dignified Death Emperor for no reason, anyone would feel a little angry.
Recalling the scenes that happened after he encountered the Death Emperor, Ning Fan could tell that the Death Emperor's sudden appearance was probably just a coincidence.
The other party seemed to have come to investigate by following the senses of the two formations of the ancient country …
"When I was setting up the ancient country's trading formation, I had already set up supplementary formations in the surroundings to isolate the fluctuations of the formation. However, I didn't expect that it would still attract the attention of others … The other party seems to have some special method that can specifically sense the two formations of the ancient country."
"However, when I set up the two formations of the ancient country for the first time, the other party did not show up. This time, however, he did. This kind of sensing method probably isn't absolutely effective. There should be a certain limit to it. This limit might be related to the weather and geography … The geography is the distance. When it comes to sensing something, the closer one is to the target, the more intense the sensing would be. The weather is the wind … Previously, when I set up the formation, the sound of the wind was chaotic and my deductions were chaotic. Today, however, the sound of the wind is calm and my deductions are clear … "
Ning Fan muttered inexplicable words. His heart was echoing the words that Phoenix Emperor Chong Ming told him that day.
"The Heaven's Will is like the wind. It has no form, no body, no trace, no root and no duckweed. However, even the wind has sounds. There are also things that we can figure out. "
"The wind rises without a sound. When it encounters something, the sound will be heard. When something is loud, the sound will be loud. When something is soft, the sound will be soft. When there is resistance, there will be resistance. When there is no obstruction, there will be silence. When there is no obstruction, there will be calm. This is the sound of the wind. "
The two words' the sound of the wind 'were the essence of all deduction techniques in heaven and earth …
Most of the old monsters who were good at deducing heaven and earth could hear the sound of the wind from everything in the universe.
It was not the sound of the wind in the natural world. Instead, it was the sound of the movement of the Heavenly Dao!
Ning Fan consumed a few pills and sat cross-legged on the ground. He refined the medicinal power of the pills and recovered his magic power that was almost exhausted.
Then, he slowly closed his eyes.
The Ferocious Domain Continent that he was sitting cross-legged on to recover was a desert continent. The storm around it was quite violent and the sound was loud.
However, what Ning Fan wanted to hear was not the sound of the wind. He calmed his mind and gradually, his ears became quieter and quieter. He could no longer hear the sound of the storm in the desert.
Gradually, Ning Fan heard the sound of the wind rubbing against the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.
It was the sound of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth operating.
The sound that Ning Fan could hear was very faint … After all, after receiving the guidance of Phoenix Emperor Chong Ming, he was just at the beginner level of the deduction technique.
With this little bit of deduction technique, he could not deduce the things that were too secretive in heaven and earth. Similarly, he could not deduce the things that were related to those powerful cultivators.
Currently, Ning Fan was not deducing anything. Instead, he was confirming his own guess.
As expected, the Great Dao of Heaven today was very calm. Under such circumstances, cultivators who were good at deduction would usually be able to deduce things more accurately.
It seems like I shouldn't use the Trading Formation of the Ancient Country on such a sunny day …
If I use this formation on a day when the Great Dao of Heaven is in a mess and the Great Dao is in a mess, the Dead Emperor probably won't be able to sense it if I set it up in a place that is further away from the Tenth-Grade Ferocious Domain Continent …
What happened today is a lesson. I need to choose the time and place carefully the next time I set up the formation …
After a long time, Ning Fan finally recovered his magic power. He exhaled a mouthful of turbid qi and stood up.
Being chased by the Dead Emperor this time was a lesson for him. The only thing that made him happy was that the power of the Black Immortal Cloud was much stronger than what he had imagined.
This was the first time he used the Black Immortal Cloud after he bought it. Its effect was outstanding!
By relying on the speed boost provided by the cloud, he actually managed to shake off the Dead Emperor with his advantage in speed!
"Without this cloud, my speed would only be comparable to a First Level Immortal King at most. After using this cloud, I actually managed to escape from a Half-Step Quasi-Saint Realm expert! This Black Immortal Cloud is indeed an expensive item that costs three hundred taels of Heavenly Dao Gold. There is indeed a reason why it's so expensive! "
"This time, I was able to use this cloud to shake off the Death Emperor. Next time, I wonder if I will be able to use this cloud to shake off the Radiant Buddha … With this cloud, I will finally have some confidence to rob the Execution Ground."
"Unfortunately, it's my first time using this cloud. My technique of controlling the cloud is still a little rusty. I still need to get used to it. Otherwise, my speed of controlling the cloud would be even faster!"
"However, it's still not enough. Currently, I actually don't have the power to resist existences at the same level as the Dead Emperor and the Radiance Buddha. Even the God Exterminating Shield isn't strong enough … It's not that the God Exterminating Shield isn't strong. It's just that the person using it is too weak … "
Ning Fan touched the bloody hole on his glabella. The grey Palm Realm Dao Law on the bloody hole had already been cut off by Ning Fan with the power of the Dao Execution Divine Sword. The wound was regenerating bit by bit under Ning Fan's powerful recovery ability.
Not long after that, the wound was completely healed. Not even a scar was left.
However, Ning Fan's mind was slightly alerted.
The scene where the Dead Emperor pierced through his God Exterminating Shield with a single finger and left a bloody hole on his glabella was still vivid in his mind.
On that day, when the eyeball monster used the God Exterminating Shield, it was strong enough to fight against Yin Mo who had the strength of an ancient Great Cultivator. As for him, he could not even defend against the attack of a Half-Step Quasi-Saint Realm expert …
"After obtaining the Black Immortal Cloud, I already have a relatively perfect plan to rescue Sovereign Slayer … The only thing I lack is the corresponding power to carry out this plan …"
"First of all, I need to break the restriction of the Void Renunciation Tribulation within a short period of time and let my divine and demon cultivation bases completely attain the Thought Fragmentation Realm! If my divine, demon and devil cultivation bases all attain the Thought Fragmentation Realm, my four types of bloodlines might be able to induce a qualitative change like millions of streams turning into an ocean … "
After some consideration, Ning Fan did not waste the Saint's will in the pig-faced treasure box to speed up the absorption of the medicinal power. Instead, after taking a short rest, he entered the Profound Yin World in a flash and used a Millennium Tower.
When he walked out of the Profound Yin World, there were only 23 Millennium Towers left.
The grade of Ning Fan's medicine soul was forcefully raised to the Ninth Revolution Silver Grade after being accumulated with countless heavenly materials and earthly treasures. Of course, the series of advancements had made his medicine soul very weak. Perhaps he would need to concoct a large amount of pills to solidify his medicine soul.
As for the pig-faced treasure box, Ning Fan had also done some in-depth research on it. After gaining a better understanding of it, he gradually gained some experience in using it.
This item could become another great reliance for him when he faces powerful enemies in the future!
Now that his medicine soul had been forcefully raised to the Ninth Revolution Silver Grade after being accumulated with numerous heavenly materials and earthly treasures, it was enough for him to concoct the Questioning Inner Heart Pill.
There were many requirements to concoct the Questioning Inner Heart Pill. Firstly, he needed a Ninth Revolution Silver Grade Medicine Soul. Secondly, he needed to have experienced at least one Void Renunciation Tribulation. Thirdly, he needed to concoct the pill in a dried up land.
He did not lack any medicinal ingredients at all. The only thing he lacked was to find a dried up land in Gu Hai to concoct the Questioning Inner Heart Pill.
[After the East Sea turned into mulberry fields and lost the South Sea, it turned into purple bamboos. No one buried the monks in the mulberry fields and the hearts of the purple bamboos and stone fishes withered.]
Those were the words written in the pill recipe by the ancient cultivator who created the Questioning Inner Heart Pill.
Judging from the words, the reason why he needed to find a dried up land in Gu Hai to concoct the Questioning Inner Heart Pill seemed to be because he wanted to borrow the atmosphere of the sea changing into mulberry fields to concoct the pill.
No matter how vast the sea was, there would still be a day when it would dry up. The sea would turn into mountains and rivers and the desert would submerge into the sea … Things would change and the stars would change.
Ning Fan felt that he had somewhat understood the concept of the Questioning Inner Heart Pill.
It would not be difficult to find a dried up land in Gu Hai. Ning Fan directly took out the Treasure Searching Compass and chanted an incantation while thinking about Gu Hai's dried up land.
Not long after that, fourteen light spots appeared on the Treasure Searching Compass. All of them were the places where Gu Hai used to be in the Supreme Pill Sacred Region.
Ning Fan took out the map of Da Bei to compare.
Six of the light spots were located in the continents of the Seventh Grade Ominous Domain and above. To enter such a domain, one would need to use a special method to break the barrier of the Seventh Grade Ominous Domain. Ning Fan could not enter and he did not plan to go there for the time being.
The eight light spots were distributed on the Da Bei Grassland outside the ominous domain. The largest light spot was located in the Gulang Grassland.
The Gulang Grassland was a grassland where medicine soul stone coins were used. Gold and silver were rarely used. That was why Ning Fan did not go to this grassland when he stole the gold and silver from the Da Bei Grassland.
Now, it seemed like he had to make a trip to this Gulang Grassland.
Ning Fan summoned Ghost Face and stepped on the Dark Immortal Cloud. Two hours later, he arrived at the border of a Third Grade Ominous Domain and the Gulang Grassland.
When he arrived at this place, he did not continue to use the Dark Immortal Cloud. Instead, he kept it and quietly entered the grassland.
The movement of the Dark Immortal Cloud was too loud. Ning Fan was worried that it would alert the cultivators in this place.
The Gu Hai Grassland was different from other grasslands. It was not the same grassland. Wherever there was a mountain, it would be filled with purple bamboos, forming a magnificent forest.
Ning Fan followed the direction of the compass and arrived at the center of the Gu Hai Grassland.
A large tribe with herds of cattle and sheep and endless travelers was built at the center of the Gu Hai Grassland.
When Ning Fan arrived with the appearance of a ghost face and silver hair, the patrolling cultivators of this tribe were a little surprised.
They were surprised by Ning Fan's silver hair and ghost face.
After arriving at this place, Ning Fan did not wear the eye-catching outer cultivator clothes. Instead, he changed into the common nomadic clothes of the Da Bei Grassland.
Therefore, ordinary people would not associate him with an outer cultivator or a guardian of the Sacred Mountain just by looking at his clothes.
What these patrolling cultivators were concerned about was Ning Fan's behavior of hiding his face.
He purposely wore a mask to cover his face and had a head full of eye-catching silver hair. Could it be …
His silver hair was because he was young?
Did he wear a mask because he felt that he was too ugly and was embarrassed to show his true face to others?
These patrolling cultivators who did not have much intelligence instantly figured out the reason behind Ning Fan's silver hair and ghost face.
There were even a few patrolling cultivators who directly addressed Ning Fan as' ugly man 'when talking to him.
"Ugly man? Is this your first time coming to my Sea Witch Tribe? Are you here to buy the ancient fish fossils that are unique to my tribe? Do you need me to introduce you to a guide? "
"…" Ning Fan who was addressed as' ugly man 'was speechless.
"Brother Ugly, I'm a peddler who sells hair oil in the Sea Witch Tribe. If you apply my hair oil, your white hair will turn black instantly. It costs twenty stone coins per bottle. Do you want to buy one?"
"…" Ning Fan who was sold hair dye and was addressed as' Brother Ugly '.
"Young Master Ugly …"
"Brother Ugly …"
"Brother Ugly …"
"Eh? Your surname isn't ugly? I saw everyone calling you that. I thought your surname was Ugly … "
Hehe. You can't draw a clear line with the word 'ugly' now, huh …
Who said that those who wear masks are ugly … Ning Fan found it a little hard to understand this kind of logic.
In fact, Ning Fan did not really care about his appearance.
However, he was more or less speechless when a group of people from the Great Humble Tribe who were lacking in intelligence secretly made him look ugly.
He even regretted wearing the ghost mask and appearing in this place …
However, he had no choice but to wear it. After all, the ghost mask was an Innate item. It could help Ning Fan conceal his qi.
Who knew if he would encounter another Immortal Emperor after appearing in this place?
The third round of the mausoleum seizing battle seemed to be in full swing. Of course, the third round of the battle had nothing to do with Ning Fan anymore.
The tomb of the Sacred Mountain that only opened once in a thousand years had already been completely opened. Many Great Humble Immortal Venerables, Immortal Kings and Immortal Emperors who were cultivating painstakingly in the Sacred Mountain walked out of the tomb and came to the outside world.
Occasionally, there would be the escaping light of an ancient cultivator whizzing across the sky. In the past, this kind of escaping light would only appear once every few months. However, after the tomb was opened, it could be seen more than ten times in a day.
Currently, the Great Humble Tribe was in a special period when the tomb was opened. There were countless experts in the tribe. Thus, they had no choice but to be careful.
Ning Fan did not expect that the Sea Witch Tribe was located at the center of the Gulang Grassland.
Ning Fan was not unfamiliar with the Sea Witch Tribe. After all, he had many interactions with the witch of the Sea Witch Tribe …
It seemed like the witch of the Sea Witch Tribe still owed him a favor which she had yet to repay.
If Brother Ning helps me get out of danger today, I will owe you a favor. In the future, when Brother Ning comes to my Sea Wizard Tribe, it doesn't matter if you have taken a fancy to one of my treasures or if you want to ask for my help, I will not refuse Brother Ning's request. I can make a Great Heart Demon Oath to never violate this promise!]
Ning Fan recalled the scene when Wu Yan made a Great Heart Devil Oath that day.
He never suffered a loss. Since Wu Yan owed him a reward, he would naturally use this reward when necessary.
However, at this moment, Ning Fan had not thought of what he should ask Wu Yan for.
It seemed like Wu Yan could not help him with what he wanted to do …
"That day, I was framed by the Thunder Sound Lineage and did not get the reward of the second round. However, Wu Yan should have gotten it. I wonder if she gave all the spring water of the South Sea to Hundred Flower Emperor or kept some for her own use … If she did, I can ask her for some spring water. I don't want to fulfill my promise with Hundred Flower Emperor. I just want to bring some back for Sha Di and Luan Gu's master … "
"Hundred Flower Emperor …"
Recalling the scene when Hundred Flower Emperor publicly broke the promise and attacked him, Ning Fan's eyes flashed with cold light.
When the situation changed that day, Hundred Flower Emperor immediately broke the promise and tried to kill him, her ally. She even tried to kidnap Nuan Er and Zang Yue to threaten him …
Heh, if it wasn't for Hundred Flower Emperor, why would I go through the trouble to participate in the Mausoleum Seizing Battle?
In the end, Hundred Flower Emperor actually broke the promise and attacked him first. She even attacked Nuan Er and the other women!
I must repay this debt sooner or later!
After clearing his distracting thoughts, Ning Fan spent some medicine soul stones to rent a tent in the market of the Sea Witch Tribe and stayed there.
He did not have the mood to stroll around the market.
Neither did he immediately go to the witch of the Sea Witch Tribe.
Inside the tent, Ning Fan released his Ninth Revolution Silver Grade medicine soul and condensed it into a medicinal cauldron. Then, he breathed out devil flames from his mouth and began to concoct the Questioning Heart Pill.
His medicine soul was unstable and he lacked experience in concocting Nine Revolution Pills … All of these were disadvantageous factors that would greatly reduce the success rate of his pill concoction. However, Ning Fan did not care about it at all.
The concoction of the Nine Revolutions Silver Pill also required a large amount of time. The success rate of concocting with a slow flame was high, but a single cauldron could take up to a hundred years. Most of the Ninth Revolution Pill Refinement Masters would ask their apprentices to look after the fire in their cauldron and concoct pills with a slow flame.
The Martial Fire was a fierce fire. It had a low success rate, but it could form pills quickly. The grade of Ning Fan's devil flame was high. Under the full power of the flame, it would not take him too long to concoct the Questioning Inner Heart Pill. Of course, the success rate would be extremely low if he used the full power of the flame.
Fortunately, Ning Fan had a lot of money. He directly bought more than a thousand sets of herbs for the Questioning Inner Heart Dan.
He was not afraid of failure, nor was he worried about the success rate.
He just wanted to refine the Questioning Inner Heart Pill as fast as possible and directly cross the tribulation of Renhuang Hollow Space! Increase his strength a little more!
The first furnace failed …
The second batch failed …
The third batch failed …
...
On the first day, Ning Fan had failed a total of forty-two cauldrons of medicinal ingredients. The tent that he was staying in was constantly filled with the sound of explosions caused by failed pill concoction. It made some of the guests who lived in the neighboring tents to have a better understanding of this ugly man.
Not only was he ugly, but his pill concoction technique was also very trashy …
Otherwise, how could he fail forty-four cauldrons of medicinal ingredients in a day … Everyone in the Great Desolate Empire was a pill refinement master. However, even the worst pill refinement master would not always fail.
On the second day, Ning Fan failed fifty-three cauldrons of medicinal ingredients.
The continuous sounds of pill cauldrons exploding for two days made Ning Fan's reputation of having a trashy pill concoction technique become a joke among the guests.
On the third day, Ning Fan still failed continuously …
On the fourth day, the fifth day and the sixth day.
After six consecutive days of pill concoction, Ning Fan's medicine soul which was originally weak became a little more solid.
He had also summarized a lot of his experiences in concocting Nine Revolution Pills.
He had also gained a lot of experience in concocting the Questioning Inner Heart Pill.
However, he still failed …
It was not the problem of his technique. No matter how bad his technique was, it should not be to the extent of failing hundreds of times without succeeding.
On the seventh day, Ning Fan did not continue to concoct the pill.
He faintly felt that if he could not find the key to concoct the Questioning Inner Heart Pill, he would still fail even if he concocted the pill for thousands of times.
This was no longer a problem that could be solved by burning money …
He decided to think about the key to concocting the Questioning Inner Heart Pill.
Still, he did not go out and wander around blindly. Instead, he stayed in his tent and meditated.
On the eighth day, Ning Fan did not go out at all.
On the ninth day …
On the tenth day …
On the eleventh day, a small hand suddenly opened Ning Fan's tent.
"B-B-Big Brother, are you buying stonefish fossils …?"
A timid voice stood outside the tent. She was carrying a small bamboo basket and asked.
Ning Fan immediately stopped his meditation and opened his eyes. His expression was a little cold.
He should have told the owner of the tent to not let anyone disturb his cultivation.
However, this little girl who was selling fossils had actually come to his tent without permission.
Fortunately, Ning Fan was only meditating in the past few days and did not concoct pills.
If he was disturbed by such a little girl at the critical moment of concocting a Nine Revolution Pill, it would be considered a light punishment if the pill cauldron exploded. It was very likely to cause Ning Fan a backlash.
In that case, it was impossible for Ning Fan to be kind to the person who trespassed into his tent.
Furthermore, he should have set up some concealment formations near the tent.
Although he did not dare to set up a formation of a high level because this was the territory of the Sea Shaman Tribe, it would attract attention. However, the formations that Ning Fan casually set up were also extraordinary.
Cultivators below the True Immortal Realm would not be able to enter his tent at all.
Could it be that this little girl who looks like a little carrot actually has a True Immortal Realm cultivation base?
No, that's not right …
This little girl's cultivation base is just at the First Step of Cultivation, but the pendant on her neck is not simple.
It seems that a certain Immortal Venerables from the ancient times made a protective magic tool for this little girl. The power of this magic tool is not too great, but it is enough to ignore a True Immortal Realm formation.
"I don't want to buy your stonefish fossils. You can leave."
Ning Fan's tone was originally very indifferent. However, when he noticed the little girl's tattered clothes, his brows loosened and his tone softened.
She was probably a child from a poor family who was forced to break into his tent to sell some fossils to him. He was an old monster with a bone age of sixty thousand years. There was no need for him to be so calculative with a little girl who was only eleven or twelve years old …
"Brother Chou, just buy one. Just one. Other people's stonefish fossils are sold for a few stone coins each. Mine is only selling for one stone coin …" The little girl was so frightened by Ning Fan's cold aura that she was about to cry. However, she still held back her tears and gritted her teeth, desperately trying to sell the fossils to Ning Fan.
"I don't need this thing." Ning Fan who was called Brother Chou twitched his mouth under the mask.
"Brother Chou, just buy one. Just one, alright?"
"I don't …"
"Brother Chou …"
"…"
"Brother Chou, I beg you. You are a good person. "
"…" Ning Fan, who had been inexplicably labeled as a good person, felt a slight headache.
As a matter of fact, he could easily get rid of this annoying little girl with his cultivation base.
However, ever since he started cultivating the Dao, he would never act recklessly against such people who had no karma with him. He sighed softly and finally compromised.
"Alright. I will buy a stonefish fossil. However, I don't have any stone coins. I only have medicine soul stones. Do you accept medicine soul stones or not? "
The value of a medicine soul stone was roughly equivalent to one stone coin. Of course, considering the processing fee, the value of the medicine soul stone was slightly lower than the stone coin.
If the medicine soul stone is used to exchange for the stone coin, the little girl would earn less money.
"Yes, of course." It was not easy for the little girl to successfully sell the fossils. Thus, she was too lazy to care about the difference in value between the medicine soul stone and the stone coin. She nodded her head continuously, afraid that Ning Fan would go back on his words and not buy her fossils. The way she looked at Ning Fan was no longer as fearful as before.
In the end, the transaction was successful.
Ning Fan lost one medicine soul stone and obtained a stonefish fossil.
"Then, you have sold the fossils. You can leave now." Ning Fan took a sip of the horse milk tea on the table and thanked the customer.
However, the little girl was still in high spirits.
"Thank you, big brother. Big brother is my first customer this month. The others don't dare to buy my fossils … Big brother, you are really a good person. My name is Wu Na. What's big brother's name … "
"…" Ning Fan's teacup froze and he frowned.
No one dares to buy the fossils of this little girl?
Yet, he bought it?
Did he … get himself involved in some strange incident again …?
Wu Na thought that Ning Fan's silence was because he was unwilling to tell her his name. She bit her lips and politely bid farewell to Ning Fan before leaving.
Before Wu Na left, Ning Fan secretly used the Mind Reading Technique.
Immediately, he saw the thoughts that she had before she left from the depths of her mind.
My elder sister was implicated by that person and is now locked up … The warden said that I have to pay one hundred stone coins to visit her. Wu Na earned one stone coin today. Wu Na has saved twenty-six stone coins in the past. I still need seventy-seven stone coins …
Nobody dares to buy my things. They are afraid that they will be implicated by me …
Brother Chou is really a good person. Unfortunately, I don't know his name …
Brother Chou is a good person. But why didn't he tell me his name …
How ugly is Brother Chou exactly? I heard that his pill refinement skills are very poor … How pitiful … There are actually pill refinement masters who are even worse than me …
This little girl's thoughts are too simplistic.
The Mind Reading Technique was a technique that allowed one to look into their mind instead of searching their memories. Thus, Ning Fan could only read these things from the depths of this little girl's mind.
Other than finding out that this little girl seemed to have some kind of trouble on her body, he was given the 'good guy' card over and over again.
The power of rumors was frightening.
In the market of the Sea Shaman Tribe, it seemed like rumors about his ugly face and poor pill refinement skills had already spread everywhere …
Forget it.
Even if this little girl has some trouble on her body, could it be bigger than the trouble he had caused today?
He was the one who was being hunted down by the entire Great Bei Nation. Even if this little girl has some troubles in the Sea Shaman Tribe, it shouldn't be too serious, right?
I'm just buying a stone fish fossil of hers. What kind of trouble can I attract …
Ning Fan shook his head. Just as he was about to put the stone fish fossil aside and continue meditating …
All of a sudden, his hand stopped in mid-air. He stared at the stone fish fossil in his hand with great concentration.
Somehow, when he carefully observed the stone fish fossil, he seemed to have found something that he lacked for concocting the Questioning Inner Heart Pill …
The stone fish fossil seemed to contain some kind of Dao Charm …
That kind of Dao Rhyme is called Change … (To be continued)
