The Boundary Stele Pass was the second impregnable pass of the Sixth Waterway. Its scale was magnificent, second only to the main pass, the Black Tortoise Pass. It was famous because there was an ancient tablet written by a quasi-saint guarding this pass.
Almost more than 40% of the Realm River Alliance's forces were gathered here. Emperor Cang and the only Nine Tribulations Immortal Emperor in the alliance, Old Demon White, were also there.
At this moment, Emperor Cang and more than 20 Ten Thousand Old Monsters were holding a small meeting inside the Boundary Stele Pass. All the Ten Thousand Old Monsters had gloomy expressions. Even Old Devil White, who had just defeated the foreign races in the Boundary River, had an ugly expression on his face.
The content of the meeting was to discuss how to deal with the four Half-Saints of the sixth path. A few days ago, an Eastern Sky Quasi-emperor had risked his life to go to Black Tortoise Mountain Pass to gather information on the fourth Semi-Sage. As a result, he had been discovered by that Semi-Sage, and had been killed on the spot in Black Tortoise Mountain Pass. His flesh and blood had been divided up and eaten by the strange races.
Fortunately, that Eastern Sky Quasi-emperor's sacrifice hadn't been in vain. He just so happened to have a type of divine ability. Once he died, he could transmit the fragments of the battle back to the array formation he had arranged before his death.
Therefore, Emperor Cang and the others saw the scene of Daoist Xuanwei killing the Eastern Sky Quasi-emperor.
Whether it was Emperor Cang or Old Devil Bai, neither of them were cultivators who had lived since the ancient times. Just by looking at some of the battle footage, it was impossible for them to determine Daoist Xuanwei's identity and origin. They could only roughly tell that this person had the strength of a Semi-Sage or above.
But Great Emperor Chong He recognized Daoist Xuanwei!
The waterways that Emperor Chong He had been on had already been conquered, so he was transferred to the Sixth Route.
Having an old man at home is like having a treasure. No matter what, Great Emperor Chonghe was also an old man of the same generation as Ancient Chaos Heavenly Emperor. Even if he deliberately hid his strength and didn't reveal much of it to the outside world, he was still able to gain the respect of the majority of Eastern Sky's old monsters.
Emperor Chonghe's face turned pale when he saw that this half-Saint was Daoist Xuanwei, the general of the Demon Conferral Summit. When the crowd asked for the reason, Great Emperor Chonghe told them about Daoist Xuanwei's background.
When they found out that Daoist Xuanwei had even poisoned a Quasi Saint to death, how could they remain calm and composed? Was there anyone in the Boundary Stele who could rival Daoist Xuanwei?
"What should we do? Even if the enemy has an ordinary Half-Saint, it would still be difficult for us to deal with them. I didn't expect that the fourth Half-Saint is actually not an ordinary person, but the renowned Daoist Xuanwei. Although I'm conceited, I know that I'm not a match for that Daoist Xuanwei. Legend has it that Daoist Xuanwei's strongest ability is the Art of Poison. Everyone might not know this, but this old man's weakness is also the Art of Poison … If the enemy is an ordinary poison cultivator, this old man can still rely on his strength to crush and defeat him. However, if it's a poison cultivator of the Mysterious Tail level … "Old Devil Bai let out a long sigh. If they were to fight against the foreign races in the future, as the strongest expert in the Boundary Stele Pass, he would definitely have to fight against Daoist Xuanwei.
He wasn't even a match for Daoist Xuanwei in a one-on-one fight. It would be extremely difficult for the others to deal with the remaining three Half-Saints of the alien race.
"Fellow Daoist Eight Scenery and Fellow Daoist Rahu have received the news and are rushing over from the third route. Fellow Daoist Eight Scenery is a veteran Eighth Tribulation Immortal Emperor. Fellow Daoist Rahu has just become a Sovereign recently. Although his realm has just stabilized, according to Fellow Daoist Eight Scenery, his combat strength has already surpassed the majority of Eighth Tribulation Immortal Emperors. He's even stronger than Sen Luo who opened the Incipient Saint Ring back then. If these two Fellow Daoists come to help, I'm sure we'll be able to relax a lot, "Emperor Jin Heng of the Taurus Palace said.
"It's indeed a good thing to have these two coming to help. Unfortunately, it's still not enough …" Someone sighed.
"Fellow Daoist Void and Fellow Daoist Shenkong have also received the news and are rushing over here. Emperor Shen Xu and Emperor Shen Xu are experts in joint attacks. Even if they can't match a Half-Saint, they can still restrain one of them for a short period of time and share some of the pressure for Fellow Daoist White, "said the veteran Immortal Emperor Yellow Turban of the Eastern Sky.
"Sigh. That's all in the past. The current Emperor Shen Xu has suffered severe injuries and his cultivation base has fallen. He only has a Seventh Tribulation Realm cultivation base now. The destructive power of his joint attack with Emperor Void has also been greatly reduced. Now, it's a little difficult for the two of them to stop a Half-Saint. However, if they can come, it will indeed greatly improve the overall strength of our Boundary Stele. "Another person shook his head and said.
"As expected, Fellow Daoist Ning is the only one we can rely on." Someone sighed with emotion.
Currently, Ning Fan's strength was publicly recognized as the strongest person in the Realm River Alliance. However, one should know that the battle of the Realm River had just begun less than ten years ago.
What was Ning Fan's situation like ten years ago? At that time, the Eastern Sky was not facing a crisis. At that time, the cultivators of the Eastern Sky were not united yet. At that time, Ning Fan was still being chased by the Dark Race …
Among the old monsters present, there were many who had tried to curry favor with the Dark Race and secretly targeted Ning Fan. Even those who remained neutral usually did not have a good impression of Ning Fan.
However, ten years later, when the crisis of the Eastern Sky arrived, Ning Fan actually became everyone's hope. He became the strongest barrier of the Realm River Alliance. With his outstanding achievements, countless cultivators in the alliance admired and worshiped him. His reputation was extremely high and it was even higher than Emperor Cang who was the leader of the alliance!
How could they not sigh with emotion?
"When will Fellow Daoist Ning come?! If he comes, a mere Daoist Xuan Wei is nothing. I just received another news from the ninth path. This Daoist Xuan Wei seems to have appeared in the battlefield of the ninth path and was even defeated by Fellow Daoist Ning. At that time, Fellow Daoist Ning's Dao Extermination Lightning Nascent Soul directly crushed Daoist Xuan Wei. "
"What?! Fellow Daoist Ning's Dao Extermination Lightning Nascent Soul actually crushed Daoist Xuan Wei? That's impossible, right? That Dao Extermination Lightning Nascent Soul seems to only have a cultivation base of around the Half-Saint Realm. Even though it's considered powerful, it's still not enough to crush a Half-Saint Realm expert of the ancient era. "
"I heard that the Dao Extermination Lightning Nascent Soul was riding an Ancestral Lightning Sparrow. The lightning power between the two of them fused together. Therefore, the Dao Extermination Lightning Nascent Soul could display its strength several times. It's really unheard of to fight for a sparrow and improve one's strength."
"This old man has heard of it. In the ancient era, many cultivators brought their mounts to battle. It seems to be a very common thing. To us cultivators of the Cultivation Ending Era, riding a mount may only be a means of transportation. However, some ancient factions seem to know some secret techniques that can be used with a mount to increase one's strength. This principle is similar to how a general in the mortal world can borrow the horsepower of a warhorse to greatly increase his strength. The quality of a warhorse can sometimes become the deciding factor in a life and death battle between mortals … "
"That Daoist Xuan Wei was defeated by Fellow Daoist Ning once in the ninth path. Now that he's in the sixth path, it's highly possible that he has already thought of a way to restrain the Dao Extermination Lightning Nascent Soul. We must be careful."
"If the opponent really has some kind of arrangement, it's hard to say whether Fellow Daoist Ning can defeat Daoist Xuan Wei again this time."
"Sigh, when will the chaos of the Boundary River be pacified? Every day, I see my close friends and disciples dying one by one, yet I'm powerless to stop it. This old man feels a little sad."
"Fellow Daoist Lin is also someone who is used to seeing slaughter. It's really surprising that you're so sentimental."
"Sigh, this old man's state of mind is indeed lacking. However, if there's peace, who would be willing to be mired in the swamp of war? I still prefer the Boundary River that used to be calm and tranquil. "
"When Fellow Daoist Ning arrives, he might have a way to completely reclaim the sixth path."
"When will Fellow Daoist Ning arrive?"
"I heard that he had already set off from the ninth path ten days ago. Why hasn't he arrived yet?"
"Why don't you contact Fellow Daoist Ning and see where he is now? Maybe he encountered some trouble on the way and was delayed. If there's really trouble, we can also send people to rescue him. "
"* Cough * Cough * Given Fellow Daoist Ning's strength, why would he need our help?"
"I'm just doing it out of concern …"
As soon as Ning Fan was mentioned, the pressure on the group of old monsters of the Eastern Sky suddenly lessened. The dark cloud that shrouded their hearts slightly dispersed.
They deeply believed that as long as Ning Fan comes to their rescue, they would have a way to deal with the foreign races' Half-Step Saints no matter how many of them there are!
Emperor Cang listened to the advice of some old monsters and began to contact Ning Fan.
He was also a little worried that Ning Fan might encounter some trouble on the way. After all, he already knew that Ning Fan could travel freely in the Boundary River without the help of a battle boat. Based on his speed, he should have reached the sixth path a few days ago.
However, he had yet to arrive even after such a long time.
Ding ding ding.
It was Emperor Cang's voice transmitting jade talisman. He was trying to get in touch with Ning Fan.
Buzz, buzz, buzz.
It was the sound of successfully contacting Ning Fan. However, due to the interference of the magnetic force of the Realm River, the effect of the voice transmission was not very ideal. Sometimes, it would be accompanied by a buzzing noise.
This was very annoying, but with Gray Deity's cultivation, he had no way to change it.
"Alliance Master, are you looking for me?" Ning Fan's voice resounded from the other end of the jade talisman. Ning Fan roughly knew that the Heaven Emperor was looking for him for official business. In private, he would directly address Cang Di as Dao Brother, but when it came to official matters, he would address Cang Di as Alliance Leader to show respect.
"Yes. You've already left the ninth path for ten days, but you still haven't reached the Boundary Stele. The other Fellow Daoists and I are worried that you might have run into some trouble on the way."
Upon hearing what he said, Ning Fan's laughter seemed to resound from the other end of the jade talisman. It was the laughter of someone who was in a good mood.
It wasn't just because he had just experienced a great victory and crushed the Black Tortoise Pass with his own strength.
Moreover, because Emperor Cang and the others cared for him from the bottom of their hearts, he felt warmth.
Among the first ten Eastern Sky cultivators, nine of them were hostile towards Ning Fan because Ning Fan's reputation was just too bad.
Today, however, it was different.
Ning Fan and countless old monsters of the Eastern Sky had become comrades and comrades-in-arms. It was a relationship where they shed their blood together. It was a relationship where men entrusted their lives to each other. They were men who guarded the Eastern Sky together.
Ning Fan was not sure about those cultivators of the Eastern Sky who did not participate in the battle. At least, he could no longer find anyone who was hostile towards him among the allied forces of the Realm River Alliance.
On the battlefield, they were comrades who entrusted their lives to Ning Fan.
If the battle ends and they return to the Eastern Sky, they would not become enemies again. Instead, they would retain their comrades-in-arms relationship …
"You seem to be in a good mood? You don't seem to have run into any trouble, right? That's good. "Knowing that Ning Fan was safe and sound, Cang Di heaved a sigh of relief and smiled.
All the old monsters at the scene were infected by Ning Fan's laughter from the jade talisman. The pressure they felt was instantly reduced. It was as if they no longer had to worry about their current predicament as long as they heard Ning Fan's voice.
"Since you didn't meet with any trouble on the way, hurry up and come to the Boundary Stele Pass. We're still waiting for you to come up with a plan to teach the foreign races a lesson." Emperor Cang said.
"Uh, this might not work. I can't send my clone to the Boundary Stele Pass right now. I have to stay at the Mystic Martial Pass for now …"
Before Ning Fan could finish his words, all the old monsters present had already sucked in a cold breath.
What did they hear?
Ning Fan said that he was currently at the Black Tortoise Gate!
What kind of joke was this? Did he not want to live anymore?
He actually snuck into the Black Tortoise Pass alone? Sneaked into the territory of the non-humankind?
"What?! Why didn't you tell me earlier that you were hiding in the Black Tortoise Gate! You want to cooperate with us and break through the Black Tortoise Gate in one fell swoop? I don't know how you managed to sneak into the Black Martial Gate … Quickly cut off the communication. Don't let the Half-Saint of the Black Martial Gate detect you! Once they find out that you're in the Black Tortoise Gate, you'll be in great danger! However, this is also an opportunity, an excellent opportunity for us to coordinate with each other from the inside and outside … "
Emperor Cang's powerful imagination had already conjured up a scene in his mind.
The reason why Ning Fan had yet to arrive at the Boundary Stele Pass was because he had secretly sneaked into the inner part of the Black Tortoise Gate.
To ordinary people, wanting to sneak into the Black Tortoise Gate without being detected by the four Half-Saint experts of the non-humankind was as difficult as ascending to the heavens. However, to Ning Fan, it was not an impossible task.
Ning Fan definitely wanted to cooperate with them and take back the Black Tortoise Gate in one fell swoop. That was why he deliberately sneaked into the Black Tortoise Gate!
No wonder he had yet to arrive. It turned out that he was actually planning such a dangerous thing. A moment of carelessness and he would be attacked by all the experts of the Black Tortoise Gate together and die without a burial place!
Emperor Cang thought of this possibility in his mind. In an instant, he actually felt a little touched. The eyes of the handsome young man were filled with tears.
He was touched that Ning Fan did not hesitate to take the risk in order to protect the Eastern Heaven. This action was too similar to that Half-Saint Emperor who sacrificed himself for the greater good.
In the ancient times, there were many people who lamented and sang sorrowful songs. The ancients did not deceive me. They did not deceive me …
How intelligent were the other old monsters of the Eastern Heaven? In an instant, they also imagined Ning Fan's various plans of sneaking into the Black Tortoise Gate and attempting to break through the gate by coordinating with each other from the inside and outside.
All of a sudden, Ning Fan's position in everyone's hearts became even more majestic. His selfless character and persistence towards the greater good had touched the hearts of the iron-blooded men one after another.
In the cold and selfish cultivation world, how many people would dare to sacrifice their bodies and sneak into the enemy's hinterland for the rise and fall of the world?
How courageous!
How hot-blooded!
That was what a man should be like!
From the beginning to the end, not a single one of them thought that Ning Fan sneaked into the Black Tortoise Gate to fight against ten thousand enemies and attack the Black Tortoise Gate head-on.
What was even more unexpected was that Ning Fan had already flattened the entire Black Tortoise Gate and annihilated all the foreign races in this place. None of the four Half-Saint Realm enemies managed to escape.
"Erm. It's not what you think it is …" On the other side of the jade talisman, Ning Fan felt that Emperor Cang and the others had misunderstood something. He did not know whether to laugh or cry.
"This is what happened. Three days ago, I arrived at the Sixth Water Path. Then, I seized the opportunity and broke through the Black Tortoise Gate. Because it's very difficult for me to repair the formation of the Black Tortoise Gate in a short period of time with my strength alone, I was afraid that the enemy would come back and occupy this gate again. Therefore, I temporarily can't leave and I have to guard this place …"
Silence. It was as silent as death!
Be it Emperor Cang or Old Devil Bai, all of them were dumbfounded. They were shocked by the shocking content that Ning Fan said in a calm tone!
"… Alliance Lord, quickly move the main forces of the Boundary Stele to the Black Tortoise Gate. Only by rebuilding the Black Tortoise Gate and repairing the formation can this gate be considered to have completely returned to the hands of the Eastern Sky cultivators." Ning Fan suggested.
Silence. It was still as silent as death!
Emperor Cang was the first to recover from his shock. His expression was extremely interesting. He said to Ning Fan with a very serious tone. "Be more serious. The matter of the Black Tortoise Gate is related to the situation of the Sixth Water Path and the success or failure of the Boundary River. You can't joke around …"
He felt that Ning Fan was just joking when he said that he would take back the Black Tortoise Gate.
The other old monsters of the Eastern Sky also felt that Ning Fan was joking. None of them thought that Ning Fan could crush the enemy's four Half-Saint Realm experts, twenty-two Immortal Emperors and more than two hundred Immortal Venerables and Immortal Kings on his own and flatten the Black Tortoise Gate.
It was too fantastical!
Even a Quasi-Saint Realm expert might not be able to do it!
Wasn't there a famous Daoist Xuanwei among the four Half-Saint Realm experts of the enemy? He had even poisoned a Quasi-Saint Realm expert to death. How powerful was he?
Moreover, this person might have already found a way to deal with the Dao Annihilation Lightning Nascent Soul … How could he let Ning Fan break through the gate so easily?!
"I'm very serious …" Ning Fan's slightly helpless voice resounded from the other end of the jade talisman.
He knew that the things he had done would make countless people suffer a great blow.
But what can he do about it?
I'm strong. It's all my fault …
You should know that there are many existences in the foreign races who are much stronger than me. There's also the Blood God Geng Wu …
If you know that the foreign races have the Blood God Geng Wu, I'm afraid you will directly feel despair about the future of the Eastern Sky …
Sure enough, the matter about the Blood God Geng Wu should not be talked about recklessly. It would really shake the morale of the army.
However, it was also undeniable that this would cause Emperor Cang and the others to misjudge the strategy of pacifying the Boundary River.
"Did you really … take back the Black Tortoise Gate all by yourself?" This question was not asked by Emperor Cang but by Old Devil White who had the reputation of the Azure Sky White Jade Building.
Unlike the others, Old Devil White did not doubt the authenticity of Ning Fan's words at all. His personality was similar to Ning Fan's. If he had sufficient strength, he would also dare to attack the enemy alone and flatten the Black Tortoise Gate.
The problem was that he did not have that strength.
Previously, when he was besieged by three Half-Saint Realm experts, he was actually at a disadvantage. Out of desperation, he took the risk and revealed a flaw. Fortunately, the Water Buffalo God fell for it. That was how he managed to severely injure the unlucky Water Buffalo God.
The cultivators of the Eastern Sky admired him even more because of this battle achievement.
Because of this, the enemies were also more vigilant against him.
Only Old Devil White himself knew that the same battle achievement could not be replicated for the second time. If he is besieged by the Water Buffalo God and the other two Half-Saint Realm experts again, they will definitely not fall for it again. As for him, he would also be defeated by the three Half-Saint Realm experts due to his lack of strength.
He did not have the strength to fight against the three Half-Saint Realm experts.
He also did not have the strength to defeat the four Half-Saint Realm experts including Daoist Xuanwei.
If there are another twenty-two Immortal Emperors, two hundred Immortal Venerables and Immortal Kings besieging him …
Old Devil White broke out in cold sweat just thinking about it.
Could Ning Fan really do it?!
If that's the case, Ning Fan was not just a little bit stronger than him. He had always thought that even though Ning Fan was stronger than him, his strength was limited …
"Yes …" Ning Fan had no choice but to answer again.
"We need to prove it! This is a serious matter. We mustn't play around with it! "Old Devil White's voice trembled a little.
"That's easy. I will send part of the recording of this battle to them …"
Ning Fan had no choice but to send part of the recording of this battle to them. However, some of the information related to the Ghost Flower of the Netherworld were hidden, making the recording obviously look like it had been edited and was not complete.
Even so, it was enough for Emperor Cang and the others to confirm the authenticity of Ning Fan's words.
Through the recording, Ning Fan's invincible figure of crushing the foreign races was deeply imprinted in the eyes of each and every Eastern Sky cultivator.
It cannot be faked. Ning Fan really destroyed the Black Tortoise Pass with just his strength alone …
After a moment of dead silence, the group of old monsters suddenly began to cheer to vent the ecstasy in their hearts!
Just a moment ago, they were still worrying about attacking the Black Tortoise Pass. At the next moment, they directly received the news that the Black Tortoise Pass had already been destroyed. How could they not be happy?!
Ning Fan was definitely the biggest contributor to the Boundary River Meeting!
Ning Fan was indeed the hope of the Eastern Sky!
He was too reliable!
The report of the battle in the Black Tortoise Pass quickly spread across the Boundary Stele Pass. Very soon, the pass fell into a sea of cheers.
Emperor Cang and the others were overjoyed. However, they also knew that the most important thing at this moment was not to celebrate but to mobilize troops to enter the Black Tortoise Pass. They had to repair the formation of the Black Tortoise Pass and link all the formations of the passes into one!
In this way, it would be unprecedentedly difficult for the Immortal Emperors of the foreign races to come out of the water!
In this way, the plan to repair the Immortal Sovereign's seal and completely seal the foreign races could also be carried out! The chaos of the Boundary River would be settled soon!
Great joy! Great joy!
Of course, there were also some people who were not so happy.
Old Devil White seemed to have been petrified. He stood on the same spot as if he had suffered a heavy blow.
It was not that he was not happy about this victory. It was just that the blow he received was too deep and too heavy.
The former number one devil of the Eastern Sky was not only surpassed by the later generations, but also surpassed by a few streets. That kind of feeling was really unpleasant.
"Brother White, are you alright?" Emperor Jin Heng saw the abnormality of Old Devil White and asked with a sigh.
"I'm fine. Let me take a break. Just let me take a break. I'm old. I'm really old … The younger generation will surpass us in time. There is no ship that can accommodate this old man in the torrent of the new era … The new waves of the Yangtze River push the old waves. I really can't not admit that I'm old. This era is no longer the era of me, Bai Yulou, nor is it the Sen Luo Era that has passed. It doesn't belong to Emperor Cang, the Taurus Palace or the Godly Void Pavilion … This era is called Ning Fan. It's called Ning Fan … "
Old Devil White said with a heavy blow.
After the blow, he also felt gratified and relieved. His state of mind had improved.
It turned out that his state of mind had always been restrained by the false title of the number one devil of the Eastern Sky.
When Ning Fan completely shattered this false title, Old Devil White finally felt how broad the path of cultivation was in front of him and how limited his vision was all along.
His path to the Quasi-Saint Realm seemed to be a little clearer now …
