Emperor Cang led his army to the Black Tortoise Pass and rebuilt it. The formations on the surface of the entire Eastern Boundary River were finally connected as one. Even on days when the sun was not shining brightly, the surface of the water was still sparkling. That light was not the reflection of sunlight but the hidden formation light.
Under the suppression of such formation light, it would be unprecedentedly difficult for the experts of the foreign races above the Immortal Emperor Realm to get out of the water in the future. However, in Ning Fan's opinion, that Great Divine Priest of the foreign races most likely still had a way to deal with this situation. The sparkling light on the surface of the water was weakening day by day at a speed visible to the naked eye. It was the sign that the power of the Immortal Sovereign's seal was gradually dissipating.
It was time to repair the Immortal Sovereign's seal.
However, Emperor Cang and the others could not move immediately. The formations on the surface of the Eastern Boundary River had just been connected as one. There were still many arrangements to be made on the surface of the water to increase the success rate of repairing the Immortal Sovereign's seal.
These arrangements could be completed by Emperor Cang and the others. Naturally, there was no need for a great deity like Ning Fan to do it. Experts would always receive preferential treatment no matter where they go.
These arrangements would take a lot of time. Ning Fan could only wait. Of course, he was not just waiting idly. This period of time was just right for him to absorb the many benefits he had obtained from the previous battles.
Killing on the battlefield was the fastest way to improve one's strength. The larger the scale of the battle, the greater the benefits a cultivator could obtain.
They could obtain cultivation resources that were tens of times more than what they would obtain during normal cultivation.
However, in the crossroads between life and death, one's cultivation realm would be solidified and their comprehension would be increased.
Ning Fan was currently in such a situation. After coming to the Boundary River for tens of years, he had obtained countless cultivation resources and his strength had entered a period of rapid improvement. Sometimes, it was not necessarily a good thing for one's strength to rise too quickly. It would cause one's foundation to be unstable and one's cultivation realm to be superficial. Fortunately, Ning Fan had experienced a lot of battles during this period of time. His superficial cultivation realm had long been solidified through countless bloody battles. His qi was now as vast as the mountains and seas. When he sat in meditation with his legs crossed, a massive aura force that could engulf the sun and moon gradually appeared between each breath.
Engulfing the sun and moon was the breathing aura force that only a true Quasi-Saint Realm expert could possess. Ning Fan was just an Immortal King Realm cultivator but he was actually able to do it. Countless cultivators of the alliance were impressed by him and he gained more admirers.
The Myriad Worlds Red Dot and the poison sac of the Green Wave Fire Poison … Ning Fan had spent several months devouring and refining these two items. The power of his Poison Yin Yang had nearly doubled, allowing him to advance further on the path of Minor Completion of the Sovereign Realm. However, there was still a long way to go before he could truly attain the Middle Level of the Sovereign Realm. He would need to devour at least another six to seven types of the most poisonous items in the world before he could attain the Middle Level of the Sovereign Realm.
The benefits of increasing the power of Yin Yang Poison were very obvious. The power of Ning Fan's poison attacks had become stronger and his poison resistance had also become higher. If he were to fight Daoist Xuan Wei again right now, he would at most suffer minor injuries even if he forgoes his defense and forcefully withstands Daoist Xuan Wei's poison attacks. However, if he puts up his defense, Daoist Xuan Wei's poison attacks would not be able to hurt him at all.
Ning Fan did not know how strong his current poison resistance was. Based on his estimation, it should at least be a lot stronger than Daoist Xuan Wei's Myriad Poison Primordial Body.
The Immemorial Devil Herbs that he obtained from Daoist Xuan Wei included many body refinement pills. All of them made Ning Fan's physical body slightly stronger.
After doing all these, Ning Fan began to use the power of the divine pearl to continue cultivating the Lang Ya Heavenly Hook Jade.
The tear of the mermaid when Aphrodite was in love could increase his absorption speed of water elemental power by hundreds of times. However, a drop of tear could only be used for a day.
The divine pearl was different. According to Ning Fan's estimation, it could be used for at least a few months, allowing him to absorb water elemental power one thousand times faster than normal.
Of course, this was just Ning Fan's initial estimation. He would only know the exact effect after using it.
Ning Fan began to cultivate the fourth volume of the Heavenly Hook Jade.
The limit of the third volume was to cultivate the Heavenly Hook Jade to one thousand pieces.
The fourth volume could allow him to cultivate ten thousand pieces.
The Heavenly Hook Sacred Scroll was the ultimate art of the ancestor of the Heavenly Hook Fish Clan – Ancestor Lang Ya. It was said that there were twelve complete volumes of the Heavenly Hook Sacred Scroll. However, Ning Fan only obtained the first six volumes of this cultivation method from the Heavenly Hook Fish Clan. The remaining volumes must have been lost in the river of time.
After eight months, Ning Fan finally used up all the power of the divine pearl.
During these eight months, the number of Heavenly Hook Jade he had increased from one thousand pieces to two thousand five hundred pieces.
Ning Fan had to admit that the Heavenly Hook Jade was getting harder to cultivate in the later stages. Ning Fan was already very satisfied with his current progress. The explosive power of the Ocean Defying Sword had greatly improved.
Without the help of the divine pearl, Ning Fan would need at least one to two hundred years to cultivate another one thousand five hundred pieces of Heavenly Hook Jade. If he wants to completely cultivate the remaining contents of the fourth volume, he would need at least one thousand years.
The fifth volume could cultivate one hundred thousand pieces of Heavenly Hook Jade.
The sixth volume could allow him to cultivate one million pieces of Heavenly Hook Jade.
According to the introduction of the Heavenly Hook Sacred Scroll, among the cultivation methods that Ning Fan had yet to obtain, the seventh volume could allow him to cultivate ten million pieces of Heavenly Hook Jade. The eighth volume would exceed one hundred million, the ninth volume would exceed one billion, the tenth volume would exceed ten billion, the eleventh volume would exceed ten billion and the twelfth volume would require a hundred billion …
Even if Ning Fan could maintain the cultivation speed of the fourth volume, he would need at least ten thousand years to cultivate the fifth volume under normal conditions. The sixth volume would require more than one hundred thousand years, the seventh volume would require one million years, the eighth volume would require ten million years, the ninth volume would require a hundred million years, the tenth volume would require a billion years, the eleventh volume would require ten billion years and the twelfth volume would require a hundred billion years …
Ning Fan was rather doubtful whether Ancestor Lang Ya who created the Heavenly Hook Sacred Scroll had really cultivated this ability to the highest level.
One should know that it had only been a billion years since the era of Immortal Sovereign Zi Dou …
"Perhaps that Ancestor Lang Ya has a Water Dao supreme treasure that can greatly speed up the cultivation of the Heavenly Hook Jade …" Ning Fan guessed inwardly.
In the blink of an eye, another three months had passed.
On this day, in the Black Tortoise Pass, a few figures suddenly appeared. With a secret technique, they silently dived to the bottom of the Realm River.
These people were none other than Ning Fan and his group who were trying to enter the bottom of the sixth path to repair the Immortal Sovereign Realm's seal.
Ning Fan, Old Devil Bai, Emperor Cang, Emperor Xu Kong, Emperor Shen Kong, Eight Scenery Emperors, Emperor Jin Heng and Luo Hou.
This time, only these eight people would be participating in the operation. The weakest among them was close to the Eighth Tribulation Immortal Emperor Realm. Those whose strength was lower than this standard would not be of much help to repairing the seal even if they participate in the operation. Instead, they might expose their whereabouts due to the large number of participants and be attacked by the foreign races.
Since they were going to the hinterland of the foreign races, Ning Fan had to inform Emperor Cang and the others about the true strength of the foreign races, a strength that even the Taurus Palace did not know about.
That was the existence of the Blood God Dark Crow!
When Emperor Cang and the others found out that there was actually a Blood God Dark Crow at the bottom of the water of the foreign races, all of them sucked in a cold breath. They became even more cautious and cautious about the operation this time.
This was the result that Ning Fan wanted.
He did not want Emperor Cang and the others to misjudge the strength of the foreign races and make a mistake in their plan.
"According to the ancient records of my Taurus Palace, there are a total of twelve Immortal Sovereign Realm seals at the bottom of the World River. They are located in the twelve water paths. However, eleven of them are just illusions. Only the seal on the sixth path is real. Therefore, if we want to repair the Immortal Sovereign Realm seals that are getting weaker day by day, the first thing we have to do is to repair the real seal on the sixth path. Everyone, please take a look at this map of mine. The real seal on the sixth path has a total of three Sealed Towers. We don't need to visit all of the Sealed Towers. We just need to go to any one of them and we will be able to repair the Immortal Sovereign Realm seals … "
"Among the three Sealed Towers, one of them is located in the divine palace of the foreign races. It is the place where the Great Divine Priest of the foreign races personally guards. It is also the place where the foreign races gather their troops. The Sealed Tower here is naturally not something that we can covet. As for the second Sealed Tower, it is located in the territory of the Divine Lotus Clan. According to the records of my Taurus Palace, the Divine Lotus Clan is a super clan in the East World River. There are more than three Quasi-Saints guarding the Sealed Tower in the clan all year round. Three Quasi-Saints aren't people we can fight against. That's why this tower isn't our target. Our target is the last sealed tower … "
"The third Sealed Tower is located in the territory of the Heavenly Shadow Clan. The Heavenly Shadow Clan used to be a super clan in the East Border River. However, something happened to this clan in antiquity times. The entire clan was destroyed. Even the three Sage-to-be who guarded the Sealed Tower and the Sealed Tower itself were destroyed. Now, only a few Immortal Sovereigns of the Heavenly Shadow Clan are active in the various water paths. They are no longer as prosperous as they used to be. However, the original territory of the Heavenly Shadow Clan is now a wasteland that no one cares about. It is said that there is a huge amount of Karma left in this place. Therefore, ordinary cultivators don't dare to stay here for a long time. Since the Sealed Tower has been destroyed, there is no need to send people to guard it. Therefore, the Great Divine Priests of the foreign clans don't have many soldiers stationed here. Occasionally, there will be a few Immortal Sovereigns of the foreign clans who come here to cultivate their Karma.
"Although the third Sealed Tower has been destroyed, the Taurus Palace has the pagoda repair technique that the Immortal Sovereign gave us. It can be repaired. The Sealed Tower is the medium that connects the seals of the East World River. We need the power of the Sealed Tower to repair the seals of the Immortal Sovereign in the East World River. Now, I will explain the details of the plan. First, we need to sneak into the remains of the Heavenly Shadow Clan and eliminate the few Immortal Sovereigns who are cultivating there. We don't want them to disturb us. Second, we need to repair the Sealed Tower. Third, which is also the most dangerous step, we need to repair the Immortal Sovereign's seals after we repair the Sealed Tower. This is extremely dangerous. As long as the Sealed Tower reappears in the East World River, the foreign clans will definitely sense it and send an army to eliminate us. This place is under the water of the foreign clans. They have as many Immortal Sovereigns, Half-Saints and Half-Saints as they want. Killing us will be as easy as flipping their palms. It's hard to say whether we can withstand the attacks of the foreign clans and repair the Immortal Sovereign's seals. Even if we succeed, we will certainly be besieged by the Half-Saints of the foreign clans. It's also hard to say how many of us can return from the East World River alive … "
"Then, this old man will ask you one last time. Have you really decided to take the risk of dying in this operation? It's still not too late to back out now. "
The water of the East World River was cold. The moment Ning Fan jumped into the river, he recalled the last question of the Golden Heng Emperor before the operation.
It's still not too late to back out now. However, even though Emperor Cang and the others struggled silently, none of them chose to back out in the end.
All of them were prepared to die before they joined this operation. It did not mean that these people's consciousness was really high or that they really cared about the rise and fall of the world and the welfare of the common people.
Most people were selfish. Those who selflessly returned the favor to the world were the minority after all.
However, no matter how selfish or cold-blooded a person was, he or she would more or less have some restraints and reluctance in this world. After all, the truly cold-blooded and heartless devils were only the minority in the cultivation world. Besides, it was impossible for such people to participate in the meeting of the East World River.
If they do not participate in the operation to repair the Immortal Sovereign's seals, they would certainly be safe for the time being. However, it was also possible that the repair of the Immortal Sovereign's seals would fail due to the lack of their own strength.
In that case, the power of the seals would eventually be exhausted one day.
In that case, the iron hooves of the foreign clans would once again invade the Eastern Sky in the near future. Moreover, the scale of the invasion this time would certainly be much larger than the last time.
After all, during the previous invasion of the foreign clans, the remaining power of the Immortal Sovereign's seals still remained which limited the scale of the invading army. The enemies did not even have any Half-Saints.
However, it was different this time. There were too many experts of the foreign clans coming out of the water. How many Immortal Sovereigns had Ning Fan killed on the surface of the water before the full-scale war began? There should be more than dozens of them! How many Half-Saints were there?!
The scale of the chaos in the East World River this time was just too huge! This was the evidence that the power of the Immortal Sovereign's seals was almost exhausted. If they let the power of the Immortal Sovereign's seals continue to be exhausted, the Half-Saints of the foreign clans would also come out of the water. Even that Blood God Jiao Wu that Ning Fan mentioned might come out of the water and invade the Eastern Sky …
No one was born to be selfless.
At least, Ning Fan was not. Even if he was putting himself in danger now, he was not doing it for the sake of the world. Instead, he was doing it for those few people.
"World Technique, Space Isolation!"
Emperor Jin Heng activated a secret technique which was said to be obtained from the Beast Clan of the Northern Heaven Realm.
As soon as this technique was activated, an invisible spatial barrier appeared around Ning Fan and his group, concealing their traces. They were obviously not hiding themselves. However, the low-grade foreign clans that were patrolling in the surroundings could not see them at all even though they were very close to them.
Occasionally, a big fish would pass by and hit them, but it would magically pass through the space barrier from one end to the other without hitting them.
It was Ning Fan's first time seeing such a miraculous spatial secret technique. He could not help but think highly of Emperor Jin Heng's strength.
With the help of Emperor Jin Heng, Ning Fan and his group did not need to hide themselves anymore. They quietly sneaked into the territory of the Heavenly Shadow Clan.
As far as their eyes could see, there were countless collapsed sea peaks, decayed coral rocks and a rocky ground that was riddled with holes. This was the ruins of the Heavenly Shadow Clan. Due to the mysterious destruction of the clan in the past, this place was still covered with a layer of strange red mist that could not be extinguished by water and fire.
Having mist underwater was supposed to be a marvelous sight. Besides, this red mist was extremely beautiful. It covered the ruins like a fairyland.
However, Ning Fan and his group did not have the mood to appreciate the beautiful red mist. It was because this red mist was nothing else but karma that was so massive that it had materialized. To ordinary cultivators, it was an extremely ominous thing that they should not touch!
Every evil deed in this world would produce karma. Among them, the karma generated by killing people was the most.
However, karma would dissipate.
It was extremely rare to see a place like the ruins of the Heavenly Shadow Clan where people had died countless years ago but still retained a massive amount of karma. The karma in this place gave Ning Fan an ominous feeling. His body instinctively did not want to enter this place. However, he knew that he had no choice but to go there. Even if it was a dragon's pool or a tiger's den, he still had to enter it.
"The magnetic force at the bottom of the World River is too strong. Ordinary spirit sense can't spread too far, especially in a place like this where karma is everywhere. You can't use your spirit sense recklessly. I heard that Fellow Daoist Ning has an ancient treasure searching compass. Can you use it to check if there are any immortal emperors of the enemy forces in this place? "Emperor Jin Heng asked.
Ning Fan nodded and activated the treasure searching compass. He set the compass to search for the immortal emperors of the enemy forces. Not long after, three light spots appeared on the compass.
"Three people, huh? Sure enough, there are immortal emperors of the foreign races cultivating their karma here. These people will disturb our actions and expose our whereabouts. We must eliminate them secretly. However, we can't kill them directly. When an immortal emperor dies, his life plate will certainly shatter. This will attract the attention of the foreign races. Fellow Daoist Void, when the time comes, please use your Great Chiliocosm Treasure to pull these immortal emperors of the foreign races into your Great Chiliocosm. Then, we will deal with them, "Emperor Jin Heng said.
Great Chiliocosm Treasure?
Everyone's eyes were filled with surprise. They looked at the Void Emperor. Obviously, they did not know that he actually had such a supreme treasure.
Even the junior brother of the Void Emperor, Shen Space Emperor, did not know that his senior brother had such a treasure.
However, Emperor Jin Heng actually knew about it. From this, it could be seen that this person's ability to gather information was extremely strange. He was almost omniscient …
The Void Emperor frowned. If it was in the past, he would most likely kill the person who revealed his trump card to keep it a secret.
However, now was the time when they were facing a common enemy. He knew what was important and what was not. He nodded and agreed to use the Great Chiliocosm Treasure. However, he smiled bitterly. "Everyone, please don't overestimate my Great Chiliocosm Treasure. The world it contains is just a severely damaged Great Chiliocosm …
