What was strange was that no one knew exactly how many casualties the Holy Mountain suffered in this battle because no cultivators of the Holy Mountain wanted to clarify this matter.
What was even stranger was that none of the Immortal Emperors of the Holy Mountain actually chased after Ning Fan even though he had caused such a huge commotion in the Holy Mountain. Instead, they acted out of character and shut the entrance of the tomb tightly. Moreover, they hid the Holy Mountain which was supposed to appear for forty-nine years back into the boundless void space in advance.
None of the grassland cultivators who went to the Holy Mountain to watch Sovereign Tu's execution had returned. Some of them died on the Holy Mountain while some went into hiding together with the mountain …
Most of the information about the battle on the Holy Mountain was obtained through deduction techniques. It was difficult to obtain accurate information. Only a few Immortal Venerables and Immortal Kings personally went to the top of the Thirty-Three Heavens where the Holy Mountain was located to investigate the situation there. However, they could not find the Holy Mountain and eventually confirmed that it had hidden back into the endless void.
The location where the Holy Mountain used to be was empty except for the chaotic Dao laws of heaven and earth. The devil qi of the ancient devils covered the sky, hinting at what kind of battle had taken place there.
After the news spread, the entire Supreme Pill Sacred Region was shaken! On the grassland, countless cultivators of the tribes were so shocked that they could not control themselves!
"What exactly happened on the Holy Mountain?!" That was everyone's question.
Some Immortal Venerables and Immortal Kings collected the remnants of the battle between heaven and earth and used a recovery technique to recreate part of the battle on the Holy Mountain!
Then, they saw Ning Fan commanding the heavenly tribulation and lightning to strike the entire Holy Mountain!
They saw Ning Fan rescuing Sovereign Tu!
They saw Ning Fan bringing Sovereign Tu and Immortal Concubine Zang Yue to chase after the last five emperors of the Holy Mountain!
They saw the two Eighth Tribulation Immortal Emperors of Lei Yun Country and Stone Man Emperor being afraid of Ning Fan like tigers and leopards. They did not hesitate to use the Ten Thousand Recitations and One Decaying Technique of the Holy Mountain Mausoleum to escape!
They saw countless immortal cultivators of the Holy Mountain being led back to the Holy Mountain Mausoleum by Ten Thousand Recitations and One Decaying Technique. They also saw the three immortal emperors of Lei Yin Country being trapped by Immortal Concubine Zang Yue's mysterious technique and could not escape. They cursed in despair. In the end, their primordial spirits were captured by Ning Fan and refined into Primordial Spirit Pills. His methods were extremely ruthless!
They saw the Holy Mountain fleeing miserably and hiding back into the endless void!
They saw Ning Fan tearing apart layers of the hollow space, trying to find where the Sacred Mountain was hidden. Unfortunately, the hollow space was vast and boundless. In the end, they could not find it and could only leave helplessly!
They did not see the scenes of the Supremacy of Great Inferiority, so the Heaven and Earth Illusory Technique of the Upper Realm did not allow it, so they did not know.
But even so, they were shocked speechless by the battle on the Sacred Mountain!
"Ghost-faced cultivator, it's actually that external cultivator. He destroyed the entire Sacred Mountain all by himself and forced the Sacred Mountain to hide in the endless void, not daring to show itself again! "Some of the cultivators who were afraid of Ning Fan's monstrous devil might were trembling in fear.
"Impossible! I don't believe that the Holy Mountain would be defeated by an outside cultivator. That is the Holy Mountain, that is the Holy Mountain … "There were cultivators from the grasslands who viewed the Holy Mountain as a source of glory, but when they heard that the 33 Heavens were in a complete mess and their holy land had disappeared, they immediately began to cry out. It was as if they had lost their faith and home.
"Not good! That ghost-faced cultivator had beaten the Sacred Mountain back into the endless void. If he continued to rampage in the Great Bei Plains, who could stop him! Who can suppress him?! "There were also people who began to panic.
"And Great Emperor Lou Tuo! We still have Great Emperor Lou Tuo! "
"But even Emperor Lou Tuo can't stop the ghost-faced cultivator! The ghost-faced cultivator has Immortal Concubine Zang Yue who has survived since the ancient times. Besides, she even saved the master of the Blood Martial who is incomparably ferocious. Didn't you see that even the emperors of the Holy Mountain are afraid of them?! Great Emperor Lou Tuo alone can't protect us at all! "
"Rumor has it that the ghost-faced cultivator loves to plunder. If he comes to plunder our tribe, we just need to sacrifice our wealth to save our lives … Sigh …"
"It's not bad if we can save our lives by sacrificing our wealth. However, I'm afraid that we will still be killed by the ghost-faced cultivator in the end. The entire grassland will be filled with blood …"
"The Holy Mountain is finished …"
"The Great Bei Plains is finished …"
"We're finished …"
Countless pessimistic comments spread across the grassland. Even the sky could feel the atmosphere. It was no longer a clear sky but dark clouds that shrouded the grassland day in and day out as if a storm was coming.
After the battle on the Holy Mountain, Ning Fan did not plunder the small forces on the grassland. Currently, even the forces of Immortal Venerables and Immortal Kings were not worthy of his attention. Only the forces of Immortal Emperors could move him.
Unfortunately, the Holy Mountain had hidden itself in the boundless void. Four of the forces of the five emperors of the Middle Province had already been plundered by him. Only Lou Tuo remained untouched. As for Lou Tuo, he had already paid the price and repaid his karma. Thus, Ning Fan was too lazy to look for trouble with him.
During the battle, Zang Yue endured the discomfort of his physical body and fought against the Radiance Buddha first. Then, he fought against the experts of the Thunder Cloud Country and the others. The backlash he suffered was extremely great. Immediately after the battle, he returned to the Profound Yin World to recuperate in seclusion.
During the battle, Black Devil was responsible for joining hands with the Heavenly Dao Soul of the Extreme Pill Sacred Region to release the heavenly tribulation in response to Ning Fan. She was not the Heavenly Dao Soul of this world. Even though she could control the Heavenly Dao of a certain area after she matures, the consumption of her energy was tremendous. After the battle, she had no choice but to recuperate in the Profound Yin World.
During the battle, Ouyang Nuan used many of the methods that Zang Yue taught her. She successfully intercepted the escape of the Thunder Sound Immortal Emperors at the critical moment. The backlash she suffered was not small. After the battle, she also went into seclusion to recuperate.
Even Old Wu suffered a backlash because he used his dark luck to attack the Thunder Sound Immortal Emperors at the critical moment of the battle …
Ning Fan's attack on the Holy Mountain seemed to be glorious but he had also paid a huge price. For example, he had used an astonishing number of Nine Revolution Pills and sixty percent of the Extreme Yang Water.
However, the result of the battle was not as much as he had expected.
At first, he thought that he could seize the opportunity when the five supreme beings were distracted to wipe out the foundation of the Holy Mountain's twenty-three emperors and the twelve lineages. However, he did not expect that he would be attacked by the Mausoleum Guarding Illusion Technique at the critical moment and the emperors of the Holy Mountain escaped …
The Mausoleum Guarding Illusion Technique, Mausoleum Guarding Illusion Technique …
It was the strongest illusion technique that the Southern Medicine Saint had left behind in the Holy Mountain's mausoleum. It had the killing power of a Saint! When the cultivators of Lei Yun Country and the others unleashed such an illusory technique, both Ning Fan and Zang Yue were severely injured by it. Luckily, Sovereign Tu was an Immortal Emperor Realm expert who blocked most of the attacks from the illusory technique and protected them.
That illusion technique was profound and difficult to understand. It guided all the immortal emperors and cultivators who had fainted on the Holy Mountain back into the mausoleum. It did not give Ning Fan a chance to attack those who had fainted. Unknowingly, it reduced the battle's result.
The Stone Puppet Sovereign and the other Seven Tribulation Immortal Emperor also took the opportunity to escape back into the mausoleum. They shut the door tightly, not allowing Ning Fan to enter.
Lei Yun and the other two Thunder Sound Sovereigns also planned to escape back to the mausoleum. However, they were trapped by Ouyang Nuan's secret technique which was taught by Zang Yue.
In the end, the Stone Puppet Sovereign brought the survivors of the Holy Mountain and hid in the endless void.
The three unlucky fellows were left alone on the dome of the Thirty-three Heavens. They continued to be chased and beaten by Ning Fan and the others. In the end, they were defeated and captured. They would rather die than become slaves. Ning Fan refined them into a pile of Ten Thousand Spirit Blood.
Immortal Emperors were indeed existences that could not be easily enslaved …
What was worth mentioning was that Yin Luo Sha and the other Eastern Heaven cultivators were also guided into the mausoleum and escaped the calamity. Otherwise, Ning Fan would not mind killing the people of the Dark Race.
After killing the Three Thunder Emperors of Lei Yun Country and the others, Ning Fan also tried to tear open the void above the former location of the Sacred Mountain, trying to find out where the Sacred Mountain had escaped to. Unfortunately, the void was boundless. He did not even know which layer of the void the Holy Mountain had escaped to. Of course, he could not find it …
In the battle, other than saving Tu Huang, he did not gain much loot. This was not Ning Fan's style.
Of course, it was not that he did not have any loot. Ning Fan could not do anything to those who were rescued by the Holy Mountain. However, the people of Lei Yun and the others who did not escape still contributed three storage pouches to Ning Fan.
Another four Innate Magical Treasures!
The Five Lightning Destruction Shield was the Natal Treasure of the third ancestor of the Lei Clan, Lei Cao.
The Lightning Prison Rope was the weapon of the second ancestor of the Lei Clan, Lei Jing.
The Divine Lightning Mirror was the magic treasure of the Lei Yun Country. It was one of the more powerful Low Grade Innate Magical Treasures.
There was also … the Immemorial Lightning Cauldron!
It was the item that ranked first among the Nine Cauldrons of the Southern Medicine Saint!
It was a precious treasure of the Thunder Sound Lineage that Lei Yun Country wanted to take away from the execution ground before he escaped!
It was a Mid Grade Innate Magical Treasure!
Since Lei Yun Country failed to escape, this treasure naturally fell into Ning Fan's pocket.
Even though he was far from attaining the First Grade Immortal Emperor Realm, the Innate Magical Treasures that he possessed were not something that ordinary Immortal Emperors could compare with.
The Profound Yin World came with two Innate Magical Treasures – the Stele of Sun and Moon and the Stele of Stars. They were treasures that Ning Fan's cultivation base was not strong enough to use in the past. If these two steles were separated, they would be Low Grade Innate Magical Treasures. However, if they were combined, their power would definitely reach Mid Grade Innate Magical Treasures or even higher. Ning Fan's cultivation base seemed to have increased enough to use the Stele of Sun, Moon and Stars. However, there were some techniques that he had yet to learn which prevented him from using them for the time being. When he has the time, he would study how to use these two steles.
Other than that, he still had the Spirit Gathering Gate, Five Elements Vase, Treasure Searching Compass, Dark Immortal Cloud, Divine Refining Cauldron, Five Venom Banner, Immortal Washing Bucket, Wind and Fire Fan, Emperor Jia Luo's Devil Subduing Pearl, Black Mountain Bear Ancestral Kasaya, Five Lightning Destruction Shield, Lightning Prison Rope and Divine Lightning Mirror.
The Flame Moon Ancient Realm, the Eastern Sea Chimes, the Raging Thunder Incense Burner … All of them were Innate items that were similar to sacrificial tools. Ning Fan gave them to Black Devil, the Quasi-Emperor puppet and Que Gu.
The Water Drowning World Bottle and the Immemorial Lightning Cauldron … These two treasures were Mid Grade Innate Magical Treasures. They had the power to destroy heaven and earth.
In terms of the number of magic treasures, Ning Fan would not be inferior to a Quasi-Saint.
Moreover, he also had the God Exterminating Shield of the Ancient Country which was a Heaven Opening Magical Treasure …
Ning Fan flew forward on a dark cloud with his hands clasped behind his back. He seemed to be in a daze.
Tu Huang was sitting cross-legged on the Dark Immortal Cloud while consuming pills to heal his injuries. Then, he sighed and said to Ning Fan who was flying on the cloud.
"You shouldn't have leaked the qi of the Heaven Opening Magical Treasure to those Quasi-Saints. You don't know how tempting an item of this level is to those living legends … Maybe you don't have the real Heaven Opening Magical Treasure. Maybe you just got a trace of the Heaven Opening Magical Treasure from somewhere. However, those Quasi-Saints won't care whether you really have it or not. If they enter the spatial turbulence and only find an empty box in the end, they will probably turn around and plot against you again to obtain the Heaven Opening Magical Treasure that you might have … "
She had already learned the whole story from Ning Fan. She was very worried about Ning Fan's future.
She did not listen to Ning Fan and enter the Profound Yin World to heal her injuries.
She wanted to stay by Ning Fan's side and heal his injuries. She wanted to look at his back when he was riding on a cloud.
"…" Ning Fan didn't explain and just shook his head with a smile.
He didn't care what kind of trouble it would attract if he leaked the aura of splitting open the heavens.
If he hadn't leaked the aura of opening the heavens, how could those shrewd old things have finally decided to give up on plotting against Emperor Slayer and run to the space turbulence?
If it wasn't for the aura of creation, how could the Radiant Buddha not care about the survival of the Saint Mountain and directly abandon it to search for treasures?
Perhaps this matter would bring trouble to Ning Fan, but how many troubles did he have?
After this incident, he would truly become the public enemy of the entire world in the Extreme Dan Sacred Region. When those Quasi-Sages returned from the spatial turbulence, they would never let him go.
Even if he returned to the Eastern Sky, he would still be pressured by the mountain of the dark race. He would still be the inheritor of the Ancient Chaos that everyone in the Eastern Sky schemed against, and he would still be the enemy of the whole world.
He had so many enemies that he could not defeat and so many mountains that he needed to surpass. His path of cultivation was full of dangers and challenges from the very beginning.
If he was afraid, then there was no need to cultivate this Dao!
If the enemy schemed against him, he would retaliate ten times or a hundred times!
If the enemy was cunning, he would be ten times or a hundred times more cunning than the enemy!
If the enemy was ruthless, he would be ten times or a hundred times more ruthless than the enemy!
If the enemy was tough, he would be ten times or a hundred times more ruthless than the enemy!
His Dao had always been firm and unyielding. He would rather break than yield!
Only in this way could he make others fear him instead of him being afraid of others!
"Fortunately, if you leave the Extreme Dan Sacred Region, their hands won't be able to reach you anymore. Even if they want to scheme against you, it's beyond their reach. Have you heard that the opening of the Extreme Dan Sacred Region this time is the last time? "
"I have. It seems to be because the giant corpse of the Realm Beast, which is the entrance passage to the Extreme Dan Sacred Region, is about to be destroyed." Ning Fan answered.
"The passage of the Realm Beast is just one of the reasons. The most important reason is actually that the will of the Saints in this world is growing like a living creature. It is growing day by day and has already surpassed the suppression of the Supremacy of Great Humble. Do you know how the ancestor of Great Humble, Medicine Saint Nan, fell? "
"I'd like to hear the details."
"After Medicine Saint Nan was severely injured by Madam White Bones who was ranked first in the Supremacy of Great Humble, he was sneakily attacked by the Good and Evil Corpses and died when he was healing his injuries …"
"Oh."
Ning Fan answered indifferently. In fact, he was not concerned about how Medicine Saint Nan died. However, if Sovereign Tu was willing to tell him a story, he was willing to listen to it as entertainment.
"Medicine Saint Nan died because of the betrayal of the Medicine Buddha and the Flame Ancestor. He died with resentment. Thus, his will turned into the Sacred Mountain. When he was still alive, he had also set up a trap. After his death, the entire Extreme Dan Sacred Region was enveloped by the will of the Saints and turned into a cage. It was the punishment for the betrayal of the Good and Evil Corpses. Those who are imprisoned are the native cultivators of my Great Humble Clan. If the native cultivators want to go against the will of the Saints and walk out of the Extreme Dan Sacred Region, they must pay a huge price. Moreover, if they live in the outside world, their cultivation base will gradually fall because of the curse of the Saints' will. In the history of my clan, there are very few native cultivators who go to the outside world. Even if they have something to do, they will not stay for too long. If they stay for too long, their cultivation base will be exhausted and they will die … Speaking of which, before the Radiant Buddha took control of the Sacred Mountain, there were some Pill Devils and Corpse Devils who retained their self-awareness and escaped to the outside world. However, after the Radiant Buddha gave a strict order on this matter, no non-cultivators left the Sacred Mountain. "
"Oh."
"Actually, this is only because the passage of the Realm Beast has yet to collapse. That's why the native cultivators have the possibility to stay in the outside world for a short period of time. If the passage of the Realm Beast is destroyed, they won't be able to stay in the outside world for a short period of time. Another purpose of the existence of the passage is to weaken the influence of the Saints' will of the Southern Medicine Saint and slow down the decline of the cultivation base of the native cultivators who go to the outside world. After the passage of the Realm Beast is destroyed, not to mention that the Extreme Dan Sacred Region and the outside world will become a dead end, even if those supreme beings of the Great Humble Clan go to the outside world to look for you through an unknown passage, they will also have to pay a painful price of having their cultivation base reduced and their primordial spirits severely damaged because of the curse of the Saints' will. There is even a slight possibility that they will be directly killed by the Saints' will which is no longer weakened. Therefore, after you leave, the quasi-saints of my clan won't dare to go to the outside world to look for you. However, that cloaked quasi-saint called Bai Zu might not necessarily be the same. He can move freely in the outside world. If he sets his eyes on you, you must remember to be careful … "
"Oh."
"Are you listening?" Tu Huang frowned.
"Oh."
"Did you do it on purpose?"
"Mm." Ning Fan smiled.
Tu Huang laughed out of anger. She was worried about him but he actually still had the mood to joke with her?!
This brat really thinks that robbing the execution ground of the Sacred Mountain is fun!
Does he really think that those quasi-saints of the Great Humble Clan won't take revenge?!
"Aren't you worried about your future situation at all?!"
"I'm more worried about your situation." Ning Fan stopped smiling and sighed softly.
His purpose of coming to the Extreme Dan Sacred Region had been achieved. He had also rescued Tu Huang. If he wants to, he could leave the Extreme Dan Sacred Region through the spatial node right now.
However, Ning Fan was very worried about what would happen to Tu Huang after he leaves?
Would those quasi-saints find an excuse to capture Tu Huang and bring him to the Sacred Mountain to be executed?
According to Tu Huang, if the native cultivators go to the outside world, they will be cursed by the Saints' will. Can't Tu Huang follow me to the outside world? Even if I escape from this place, I will still die …
"Why do I have to go with you? I still want to stay here and avenge my subordinates who died. Humph! Those bald donkeys of the Sacred Mountain captured me and even killed my subordinates. I won't let this matter go just like this! You can leave by yourself. I want to stay here and fight those bald donkeys of the Sacred Mountain! " Tu Huang's lips curled into a vicious smile. She was the same as Ning Fan. Both of them were fearless.
"Actually, the souls of your subordinates are still there … I am the Fu Li Tribe. I have kept their souls with my spiritual wheels. If I have enough power one day, I will give them a chance to be reborn. You don't have to be too sad about this. "
"If that's the case, I have finally resolved a knot in my heart. However, even so, I will still take revenge on those bald donkeys of the Sacred Mountain. You can't stop me. "
"Can't stop me, huh … Or, you said that on purpose just to make me feel more at ease when I leave? You don't want me to worry about you? "Ning Fan's back remained silent.
"…" Tu Huang also remained silent.
There really did not seem to be any romantic feelings between the two of them.
However, there was an indescribable bond between them that made Ning Fan worry about Tu Huang's future. It also made Tu Huang worry about Ning Fan's future.
They were like master and servant. The kinship between them was different from romantic love.
"By the way, those Quasi-Saints who schemed against you seemed to be after the [Sword Ancestor's Utmost Emotion] in your body … Do you know what it is?"
"God knows what it is." Tu Huang rolled his eyes at Ning Fan with his only intact right eye. She was infuriated whenever this topic was mentioned.
Given her intelligence, the moment the Quasi-Saints gathered on the Sacred Mountain, she knew that she had probably been schemed against by those Quasi-Saints a long time ago.
How could she be in a good mood?!
The so-called execution was actually just a coincidence. Even without Ning Fan, those Quasi-Saints would still find a chance to frame her with a crime and execute her!
She thought that she had been unstoppable for her entire life. However, it turned out that she was just a dog in the eyes of others!
"Say, if I manage to get rid of the [Sword Ancestor's Utmost Emotion] in your body, would those Quasi-Saints stop scheming against you? After all, if there are no benefits to be gained from it, those Quasi-Saints wouldn't be bothered to get involved in karma. "Ning Fan suddenly thought of something and his eyes lit up.
"Good idea. Then, here comes the question. What is the [Sword Ancestor's Utmost Emotion]? How are we going to get rid of it?" Tu Huang asked indifferently as if he was not concerned about getting rid of the [Sword Ancestor's Utmost Emotion].
The method that the Radiance Buddha used to scheme against the [Sword Ancestor's Utmost Emotion] in her body seemed to be to directly strip away her cultivation base. Moreover, it was not an ordinary stripping but a stripping with lightning. Moreover, it required her to feel emotional when stripping away her cultivation base. Otherwise, the dignified Radiance Buddha wouldn't have purposely set up a trap to lure her subordinates to their deaths. He just wanted to make her emotional state fluctuate …
"If you have to get rid of your cultivation base to avoid the schemes of those Quasi-Saints, would you be willing to do it?" Ning Fan asked with a frown.
"I'm not willing! A life without cultivation base is no different from a salted fish. On the other hand, I'm more willing to fight those Quasi-Saints to the death with my cultivation base. "Tu Huang shook his head decisively.
"Say, is there any other way to strip away the [Sword Ancestor's Utmost Emotion] …?"
Ning Fan's eyes were deep. He recalled the Sword Ancestor's Utmost Emotion that he encountered in the Corpse Mountain. He finally understood why he had such a special feeling towards Tu Huang.
It was because Tu Huang possessed the [Sword Ancestor's Utmost Emotion].
Even though Tu Huang was an illusion puppet, he was an existence that was no different from the Sword Ancestor's illusion clone. To him, he was special.
At this moment, what he was talking about was the [Sword Ancestor's] feelings.
What made him feel peaceful now was also the [Sword Ancestor's] feelings.
The countless threads of karma were actually just the bond between him and the Sword Ancestor. That was all.
The Sword Ancestor was already dead. However, because Tu Huang possessed the [Sword Ancestor's] feelings, his existence was equivalent to another life of the Sword Ancestor.
When he was still a butterfly with low spiritual intelligence, she was the Sword Ancestor whose name shook the entire True World.
When he was reincarnated into a human and rose to power in the Illusory World step by step, she was only left with a skeleton and an illusion puppet formed by her [Sword Ancestor's] feelings.
In a daze, Ning Fan recalled what the Sword Ancestor's skeleton said to him before it turned into ashes.
[You can't find me and I can't meet you … If two lines intersect, we will meet in one lifetime and be separated for the rest of our lives. If two lines are parallel, we will walk together forever and never meet again …]
At that time, he did not understand what it meant.
But now, he somewhat understood it.
He and the Sword Ancestor were two parallel lines. They walked together from the beginning to the end.
However, they could not truly meet each other in the end. He died and she lived. He lived and she died. From the beginning to the end …
"Little Butterfly, why are you sighing? Erm … I don't know why but I'm calling you Little Butterfly again … "Tu Huang felt awkward and began to talk nonsense again.
"Just call me that. It sounds pretty nice."
"It's fine. I still like to call you Ning Fan. It's a nice name."
"Then call me Ning Fan. Don't call me little fellow or little thing."
"Then don't call me senior or lady. Didn't I tell you to just call me by my name? My name is Ji Qingling. Remember it. "
"Ji Qingling. This name sounds very nice. However, is this name … real …?"
"What did you say?" Tu Huang was stunned.
"I'm returning you the left eye that I owed you. The past that you want is all inside it. Your existence seems to be just an illusion puppet, an existence similar to the Hundred Blossom Emperor's. At first, I was hesitating whether I should let you know about these things or not. However, perhaps you have already noticed it. "
Ning Fan sighed and returned Tu Huang's left eye to him. At this point, he had completely repaid his promise to Tu Huang.
Tu Huang took off the eyepatch and used a secret technique to put his left eye back. He closed his eyes and silently watched the past that Ning Fan had engraved in her left eye.
She saw the scenes where the ten supreme wasps created her …
She did not see the little fellow that she was looking for …
"Sure enough, I'm just an illusion puppet. As for the little fellow that I'm looking for, I won't be able to see him clearly just by looking at the past. The bottom of the Yellow Spring doesn't have the answer that I'm looking for … "After a long time, Tu Huang heaved a sigh of relief and smiled indifferently.
She had already guessed that Ning Fan was an illusion puppet. Thus, it was not something that she could not accept.
Even though it was a pity that she did not see the person that she was waiting for in the past … Perhaps, Ning Fan was the little fellow that she was waiting for. There was no need for her to look for him anymore. She had this feeling.
What would the future hold?
Before the Quasi-Saints who were trapped in the spatial turbulence return, there probably would not be any changes. However, when those people return, her situation would probably be very bad.
However, no matter how bad it would be, it would not be worse than the strange changes that were happening to her body at this very moment …
"Thank you, Little Butterfly. I'm not thanking you for saving me. Instead, I'm thanking you for reuniting with me with this identity and appearance. "
Tu Huang thought to herself.
She did not understand what she was saying in her heart but she felt very happy. She was happier than when she first formed her Gold Core and when she first formed her primordial spirit … Just like that, she sat behind Ning Fan and watched the clouds fly past under her feet. She watched his white robes and black hair fluttering in the wind. She watched his back as silent as a mountain. That was enough.
Even if she dies at this moment, she would have no regrets.
Behind Ning Fan's back, Tu Huang secretly covered his chest with his hands. He endured the pain that felt like his heart was being torn apart. He swallowed the sweet blood in his throat again and again, forcefully suppressing the qi of death that was gradually forming in his body.
She was about to die.
Actually, it was not accurate to describe her as dead because she was not a living person who truly existed. Her existence should have died in her mother's womb countless years ago. She was also not that baby girl. She was just an illusion puppet, a substitute for that baby girl.
Initially, she thought that she would be safe after Ning Fan rescued her. However, that was not the case.
At the moment she left the execution ground, her body suddenly began to wither without any warning!
If she was a living person and a real immortal emperor, her immortal lifespan should be endless. There would not be such a sudden and strange change.
However, she was not.
She was just an illusion puppet.
Her cultivation base was fake.
Her immortality was fake.
The Supreme Bee who created her had arranged for her to live as long as her lifespan. There was no way to change it.
When she left the execution ground, she suddenly realized that the lifespan of the illusion puppet in her body was already running out!
It was just like when the Supreme Bee created her countless years ago, she had already calculated everything and accurately calculated all the timings!
Ten Wasps had calculated the exact time of her execution and the exact time when Ning Fan would rescue her from the execution ground!
Moreover, she was given enough lifespan to last until Ning Fan rescued her.
Now that she was rescued by Ning Fan, her lifespan of the illusion puppet had reached its end …
She was the illusion puppet of the ten bees. No one could interfere with this illusion puppet. No one could prolong her life …
Except for the ten bees herself, the culprit who released the illusion puppet!
The lifespan that the ten bees gave her was extremely accurate. This was the end of her lifespan!
She had calculated everything. She even calculated that Ning Fan would have a way to send a Quasi-Saint away to save her countless years before she was created!
She understood now!
The ten bees were different from other Quasi-Saints!
Ning Fan's series of overt schemes might have helped him get rid of the schemes of Radiance Buddha and the others. However, he was still in the trap of the ten bees!
That's right. That's right …
The goals of the Supreme Bee and Radiance Buddha and the others were different from each other!
She was created by the ten bees. She must have been placed the Sword Ancestor's Utmost Emotion in her body at that time.
The ten bees had already possessed the Sword Ancestor's Utmost Emotion. There was no need for her to make an unnecessary move by peeling it off and plotting against her again. What she was sure of was that the reason why she came to the Sacred Mountain this time was different from the others. It was not the Sword Ancestor's Utmost Emotion.
To the ten bees, the Sword Ancestor's Utmost Emotion might just be a bait. A bait to catch Ning Fan!
"The one that the ten bees are plotting against is … Ning Fan!" Tu Huang was shocked by his own speculation. However, he did not show any of it on his face. He did not want Ning Fan to know about this.
If what he guessed is true, Ning Fan was still not safe at this moment.
What does the ten bees want to do?!
Why did they only give her the right amount of lifespan for the illusion puppet?
Did they want Ning Fan to discover that she was on the verge of death? Did they want Ning Fan to bring her to them and beg them to extend her life?
Did they want to use this matter to coerce Ning Fan to achieve their goal?!
"With Ning Fan's personality, he is willing to come and save me even after knowing that I am an illusion puppet. Most likely, he is also willing to find the ten bees in order to extend my life. From then on, he will fall into their trap step by step … This is an overt scheme of the ten bees! They want to strangle Ning Fan's personality and force him to submit to them … "
"I can die. After all, it is just an illusion technique. However, I can't let Ning Fan fall into their trap anymore! I can't drag … my little butterfly down with me! "
Tu Huang was the Palm Illusion Great Emperor. If she wanted to use an illusion technique to conceal the fact that she was on the verge of death, even Ning Fan would not be able to see through it.
Moreover, Tu Huang's injuries were already extremely severe. Occasionally, a trace of death qi would leak out from him but Ning Fan would only think that it was because his injuries had worsened. He would not think of anything else.
Ning Fan had won the battle on the Holy Mountain. He had defeated the Light Buddha, the Dead Emperor, Niu Gui and Bai Zu.
Ning Fan had lost the battle on the Holy Mountain. It seemed like he had sent the ten bees away. However, it turned out that it was all within the ten bees' precise calculations.
It was a plan that she had started countless years ago. Her scheme … must be extremely huge!
Tu Huang forced himself to smile and chat with Ning Fan. He pretended that nothing had happened and talked nonsense with Ning Fan. He used an illusion technique to draw out the redness on her face to cover her paleness.
She did not know how long she had left.
She did not know how long she could accompany her little butterfly.
She seemed to have understood something but at the same time, she still did not understand it.
She seemed to have regained her life and become the sword ancestor again. At the same time, it also felt like she was still an illusion.
"What's wrong with you? Why do you keep talking nonstop? What are you trying to hide? When people want to hide something, they will always act abnormally. Your actions don't match your personality. "Ning Fan said with a frown.
He could not see anything even with the Mind Reading Technique.
He could not get any information from Tu Huang even if he used the Myriad Things Communication Technique.
He had a feeling that Tu Huang was hiding something from him. However, he did not have a good relationship with Tu Huang after all. Thus, he did not seem to have the right to ask about what Tu Huang was hiding.
"Abnormally, huh? Then I better keep my mouth shut. Where are we going now? " Tu Huang did not deny it. He disdained to lie but he did not reveal everything either. His long eyes carried a smile and an indescribable gentleness as he looked at Ning Fan.
"We're going to look for someone. I'm planning to act presumptuously in this Great Bei Clan while the few Quasi-Saints were lured into the spatial turbulence by me. "
"Who are you looking for?"
"Chu Lie, the saintess Duo Lan."
"You want to take away the entire Heavenly Dao Gold and Silver Mine of Great Bei Clan? If I do that, Radiant Buddha and the others will go crazy when they return. "
"If I don't do that, will they let me go?" Ning Fan said with a smile.
"You're right. Cultivation is something that goes against the heavens. If you want to tolerate everything, why don't you just become a mortal? It's exactly because people are unwilling to admit and give in that they force themselves to move forward. Since you want to act presumptuously, I will accompany you. "
"Do you really not need to enter my Profound Yin World for seclusion to heal your injuries?" Ning Fan asked with a frown.
Tu Huang who was covered in injuries and his qi was extremely weak. He actually wanted to continue acting presumptuously … It would be a lie if he said he was not worried.
"I can still heal my injuries by staying behind you. Other than Lou Tuo, there are no other immortal emperors on the grassland. With your capabilities, even if you fight an immortal king to the death, you won't let me stay behind you and heal my injuries, right? "
"You're right."
Ning Fan no longer objected and allowed Tu Huang to stay on the dark immortal cloud and travel with him.
The dark immortal cloud flew across the grassland of the Middle State. Every time it passed by a city of the Middle State, it would make the cultivators there shiver in fear.
It was because those people knew that it was a ghost-faced cultivator who was passing by. If they were not careful, they might face the danger of being massacred in the city!
Only when Ning Fan's dark immortal cloud flew far away would these people heave a sigh of relief.
Dark clouds covered Liuli City. It seemed like it was going to rain but it could not fall.
At some point in time, some of the residents of Liuli City suddenly discovered that there was an additional dark cloud with monstrous devil qi in the sky that was filled with dark clouds!
Countless people even saw the appearance of the man who was standing on top of the dark cloud with his hands clasped behind his back with their spirit sense!
All of a sudden, the entire Liuli City fell into chaos because of Ning Fan's domineering arrival!
"Ghost-faced cultivator! He … he … he is here! We are going to die! We are going to die! "
Ning Fan felt a slight headache.
He had slaughtered many cities and destroyed sects. However, all the cultivators he killed were cultivators with deep karma. He had never killed ordinary mortals like the residents of Liuli City who lived ordinary lives.
Of course, these residents of Liuli City possessed medicine souls and some magic power from the moment they attacked. Thus, they could not be considered as mortals.
However, from Ning Fan's point of view, the so-called mortals did not refer to their magic power but whether they participated in the battles between cultivators.
Obviously, these people lived the lives of mortals who worked at sunrise and slept at sunset. They had nothing to do with the battles between cultivators.
Towards such mortals, he also did not want to destroy their peaceful lives.
"Everyone, please be quiet. I'm not here to massacre the city!"
Ning Fan's comforting voice clearly entered the ears of every resident of Liuli City. However, it did not seem to be able to suppress the chaos at all.
It was because these residents did not believe him!
In their eyes, the Sacred Mountain was sacred, it was their belief and it was their glory.
Ning Fan who destroyed the Sacred Mountain was a heretic, a devil and a homicidal maniac.
With the limited intelligence of the residents of Liuli City, they were almost certain that Ning Fan came to Liuli City to kill people and eat their flesh with wine … Is he a devil? He's just that terrifying.
After realizing that he could not suppress the chaos, Ning Fan became slightly speechless. Some of the streets had already been trampled by the residents due to the chaos. Even though there were no deaths yet, there were indeed a lot of people who were injured. If this continues, he would kill a lot of mortals who had no karma with him for no reason …
Looking at Ning Fan who actually frowned over such a trivial matter, Tu Huang smiled.
My little butterfly is really interesting. Very interesting … It's impossible to find a second cultivator like him in this world.
"You won't be able to control the chaos if you say that. You should say that … "
Tu Huang cleared his throat and imitated Ning Fan's voice like a ventriloquist. Then, he pretended to speak fiercely to the entire Liuli City.
"Under my order, all residents of Liuli City are to return to their homes immediately. You are not allowed to run on the streets, cause any chaos or make any noise! Those who disobey my order will be dismembered by a thousand cuts and sliced into pieces for cooking! Women will be humiliated a hundred times and neither young nor old will be tolerated! "
* Hiss *
All the residents of Liuli City sucked in a cold breath. They were frightened by 'Ning Fan's' threatening voice.
No one dared to run on the streets anymore. All of them only dared to slow down and slowly head back to their homes!
Also, no one dared to cause any chaos or speak loudly. All of them kept quiet out of fear of being punished by 'Great Devil Ning'.
Didn't you hear what 'Ning Fan' said?
Are those words that a human can say?!
Those are words that only a devil can say!
If a man disobeys his order, he will be dismembered and cooked!
If a woman disobeys his order, she will be ravaged by 'Great Devil Ning' a hundred times and neither young nor old will be tolerated!
This' Great Devil Ning 'is too scary. He even dares to lay his hands on a three-year-old little girl and an eighty-year-old old woman. He is indeed a devil!
The entire Liuli City instantly fell into silence because of Tu Huang's nonsense.
The residents of the city were not the only ones who fell into silence.
Even some existences with extremely high cultivation bases fell into silence.
"My reputation has been ruined by you …" Ning Fan was speechless.
"Are you the kind of person who cares about your reputation? As long as you achieve your goal, so what if you have to resort to unscrupulous means? As long as your Dao Heart is clear, it's fine. "Tu Huang smiled sweetly.
"You have a point."
Ning Fan shook his head. He did not want to argue with Tu Huang. Instead, he kept his black immortal cloud and held Tu Huang's waist. Then, his figure flashed and disappeared without a trace.
Under his deliberate concealment, the True Immortal Realm cultivators who were currently stationed in Liuli City would not be able to detect where Ning Fan had gone to at all.
Ning Fan quietly landed in a place called Prison No. 47 in Liuli City.
This was the place where he and Duo Lan stayed when they first came to Liuli City.
As soon as the few maids who were close to Ning Fan saw him, they were actually not afraid of his devil name. Instead, they cried tears of joy.
"Lord Devil King, please save our young mistress. She … She has been locked up by the Spirit Sect's Sacred Son and he still refuses to let her go until now."
They are obviously not afraid but why do they keep calling Ning Fan Devil King …?
What kind of weird title is that?!
Ning Fan did not continue to discuss the title with the few maids. Instead, he frowned and asked. "Has Duo Lan been captured by the Spirit Sect's Sacred Son?"
"No. Not captured. Young mistress was forced to leave with the Spirit Sect's Sacred Son willingly."
"Forced?"
Ning Fan was surprised.
When he had participated in the second round of the Mausoleum Contest, he had been curious as to why Duo Lan had not come to watch his match. Now that he thought about it, could it be that she had already been taken away by the Spirit Sect?
"Do you know why the Spirit Sect took Doran away?"
"This …"
The faces of the maids immediately turned red, and then they said somewhat uneasily.
"We don't know the details, but it seems that the Spirit Sect used the Demon King to threaten the Young Miss, which was why the Young Miss willingly allowed herself to be taken away. It was said that the Holy Son of the Spirit Sect had reached a critical juncture in his cultivation and needed a Holy Maiden who still had her vital yin energy to help him break through his bottleneck. In the past, the Holy Son of the Spirit Sect had looked down on our Young Lady, but this time, it seems like there has been a change. He is very attentive to our Young Lady and has been providing for her with good food and drinks. When the time comes, he will officially use our Young Lady for cultivation … "
"For me?"
Ning Fan was surprised. He did not expect that the reason why Duo Lan was taken away was related to him.
Tu Huang, who was at the side, smiled mischievously.
Her family's little butterfly seemed to be very popular with women … It seemed that she did not need to worry about this little fellow's marriage before she died.
Good, very good.
With these women by his side, it was just like how her smile would stay by his side …
Each of them had a unique smile that bloomed because of him. (To be continued.)
