In the continuous rain, he landed on a giant tree that was tens of thousands of feet tall. This tree covered the sky and was as lofty as a giant peak. It was the tree body of Old Man Ming Luo.
After landing on the giant tree, a spirit sense that was even stronger than a fourth layer Void Fragmentation Realm spirit sense immediately scanned across Ning Fan. After sensing that Bright Sparrow was safe and sound, that spirit sense seemed to be slightly relieved.
"Enter this old man's body."
An indifferent voice came from the gigantic tree. Immediately, the tree trunk in front of Ning Fans cracked open, revealing a gigantic door that was tens of zhang tall.
This tree was the Ming Luo Tree, the original body of Old Man Ming Luo. Even the short and small old man who was at the Fourth Heavenly Layer of the Void Fragmentation Realm was merely formed by the demonic soul of the Ming Luo Tree Spirit.
His original body was a tree that grew in the dark and gloomy underground. He hated fire, and his original body couldn't leave the ground. The aura force of his true body was extremely strong. It was a piece of cake for him to kill that Fourth Heavenly Layer Void Fragmentation Realm old man with snake scales.
Since he could not leave the ground, the tree spirit could only leave his body to search for Bright Sparrow. That was why the monsters on the eighth level could take advantage of him. If the demons of the eighth floor dared to behave atrociously in the ninth floor … Ming Luo would turn all of them into his fertilizer!
Ning Fan was slightly stunned by Ming Luo's true strength. When he thought about it, Ming Luo seemed to owe him a favor … If he asked Ming Luo to help him kill Moksha Emperor, Ming Luo would most likely not reject it. But unfortunately, Ming Luo's main body couldn't leave the ninth level, and his clone was restricted. Every time he went up a level, his cultivation would drop a little, and he couldn't leave the Dark Sparrow's Tomb.
Just like what Ming Luo had said, there was only one way for him to leave Dark Sparrow's Grave. Burning his demon soul and using his death as the price to break the Law of Heaven and Earth!
Thinking of this, Ning Fan let out a bitter smile. Asking Ming Luo to kill Moksha Sovereign was somewhat unrealistic. Moreover, Ning Fan was more inclined to take Moksha Sovereign's life with his own hands. Of course, the prerequisite was that he had the confidence to kill Moksha Sovereign!
Within the giant tree, there were nine bends and ten bends, slowly bending towards the world at the heart of the tree. At the heart of the tree, there was a magnificent wooden palace. As soon as a short black-robed old man saw Ning Fan, he immediately came out to welcome him.
"The Void Poison has been suppressed?!" He sounded extremely excited. Looking at Bright Sparrow who was sleeping peacefully in Ning Fan's arms, his eyes were filled with affection.
"Fortunately, I didn't fail you." Ning Fan said indifferently.
"Alright! Good! Go to Bright Sparrow's room and let her rest for a period of time to recover her demonic essence! "
...
He placed Bright Sparrow on the bed in the room and allowed her to rest temporarily. Outside the house, Ning Fan stared at the short old man with a solemn expression.
The short old man in front of him was Ming Luo Treant. He was a Void Fragmentation expert, but Ning Fan felt so tiny in front of his true body in the ninth level of Dark Sparrow's Grave. Ming Luo's true body was much stronger than Moksha Emperor … Ning Fan had fulfilled his request and cured Bright Sparrow. According to this demon's character, he probably wouldn't bite the hand that fed him, but life was unpredictable. Ning Fan had to be extra careful since he was in a dangerous place.
He secretly held a wisp of true soul in his sleeve. It was the soul of Ming Luo. His tone was indifferent. "I've fulfilled senior's request. Right now, can I make a third request to Senior? "
There was not a trace of carelessness in Ning Fans eyes. This was the cautious way of living in the world. Once Ming Luo made any strange move, he would crush his true soul and greatly damage his cultivation!
"Hehe, little friend, you've saved Bright Sparrow. If you have any request, just say it! Don't worry, I'm Ming Luo. I'm an open and aboveboard person. I'll never go back on my words to my friends! "
Ming Luo's words were neither red nor breathless. Open and aboveboard … he seemed to have forgotten that he had sneak attacked Ning Fan. How was that open and aboveboard?
Ning Fan gave Ming Luo a strange look. He didn't expose the past to avoid embarrassment.
This Ming Luo seemed to care about his face …
In order to save Bright Sparrow, Ning Fan made three requests. First, Ming Luo had to hand over a wisp of true soul in exchange. Second, Ming Luo had to use a ten-thousand-year-old spiritual herb to cure Bright Sparrow's poison.
Ning Fan didn't get any benefit from either of the two requests. It seemed like he was suffering a loss, but in fact, he had a third request. Moreover, there was a big mystery in the first request. Perhaps, Ning Fan would have to trick this treant.
Since Ming Luo had agreed to Ning Fan's third request, Ning Fan wouldn't be polite anymore.
"I'm sure senior can guess my third request … I want the Ming Luo Fruit!"
"Sure enough, you want the Ming Luo Fruit. Alright, this old man will agree to it! But … how many Ming Luo Fruits do you want? I only have three with me now … if you want the fourth one, you will have to enter my Ming Luo Illusory Realm to pluck it … "
Ming Luo's eyes froze and looked at Ning Fan.
"Ming Luo Illusory Realm?"
"That's right! In this illusory realm, there are countless of Ming Luo Fruits … but I can't enter this realm myself. Bright Sparrow is unconscious now, so she can't enter either. If you want to enter, I will make an exception and let you enter once! "
Ming Luo's tone was flat as if he was talking about something casual, but Ning Fan was slightly moved.
In the memory of Ancient Chaos, there seemed to be a mention of the place where the Ming Luo Fruit grew … the Ming Luo Illusory Realm. However, this illusory realm had never allowed any races other than the demon race to enter. Ming Luo's sincerity in opening the illusory realm for him was not small.
Moreover, it was said that the illusory power of this illusory realm disregarded one's cultivation base. The number of Ming Luo Fruits one could pluck depended entirely on the firmness of one's Dao Heart. It had nothing to do with one's cultivation base … even a Void Fragmentation cultivator might be bewitched by the illusory realm and return empty-handed without being able to pluck a single Ming Luo Fruit.
With a trace of Ming Luo's true soul in his hand, Ning Fan wasn't worried that Ming Luo would harm him.
Moreover, Ning Fan wouldn't be foolish enough to refuse the opportunity to obtain more Ming Luo Fruits.
"Thank you, senior, for opening the illusory realm for me."
"Sure. Seeing that you have saved Bright Sparrow, I will remind you again. Don't be greedy when you enter the illusory realm. As long as you close your eyes and wait for the illusory power to dissipate, you can easily obtain a Ming Luo Fruit before the illusory realm closes … young man, don't be greedy. Four Ming Luo Fruits is already a lot. "
"Thank you for your reminder, Senior Ming Luo. I will keep it in mind. However, I still want to try my best to pluck a Ming Luo Fruit without resorting to trickery. "
"Forget it … if you are eroded by the illusory power, I will forcefully take you out."
Ming Luo shook his head. He praised Ning Fan's courage, but he didn't think that Ning Fan could obtain half a Ming Luo Fruit from the illusory realm without resorting to trickery.
The illusory power was directed at the weakest part of the human heart … devil dao cultivation techniques would be more susceptible to the illusory power. This young man seemed to be a devil cultivator of the human race … so it would be harder for him to resist the illusory power.
Ming Luo firmly believed that Ning Fan would gain nothing in the illusory realm, but he still opened the illusory realm for him as a reward for saving Bright Sparrow.
...
Ming Luo's ten fingers formed a seal. After a ray of light, a mysterious space appeared outside the tree-core palace, faintly emitting an extremely strong illusory power. Ning Fan took a step into it!
After the time it took for half an incense stick to burn after Ning Fan entered the illusory realm, Ming Luo's expression suddenly changed.
He sensed that Ning Fan had broken through the illusory realm and plucked the first Ming Luo Fruit!
"This young man actually plucked a Ming Luo Fruit!"
Ming Luo's expression gradually turned solemn. He seemed to have underestimated Ning Fan …
To be able to pluck a Ming Luo Fruit meant that Ning Fan must be a person with a heart of stone. As a human devil cultivator, he was able to pluck a Ming Luo Fruit. This young man was extraordinary!
"It's a pity that this young man is destined to not be able to pluck a second Ming Luo Fruit … In the Ming Luo Illusory Realm, the more Ming Luo Fruit one plucked, the stronger the illusory power would be. The difficulty of plucking the next fruit would also increase … Since the establishment of my Ming Luo Tree Clan, countless experts had entered the Ming Luo Illusory Realm, but there were less than a hundred people who could pluck a second Ming Luo Fruit at this young man's age …"
Ming Luo muttered to himself in a low voice, but before he could finish his words, his eyes were filled with surprise. He sensed that Ning Fan had plucked the second Ming Luo Fruit in the illusory realm!
The second fruit! Even among the human race, those young experts who cultivated the righteous profound cultivation technique would find it hard to resist the illusory power of the second Ming Luo Fruit!
"If he can pluck the third Ming Luo Fruit before the age of 20, then he can be considered as a heaven's chosen!"
Ming Luo's heart was filled with anticipation, anticipating Ning Fan to do something amazing.
But to his disappointment, Ning Fan hadn't plucked the third Ming Luo Fruit even after half an hour, as if he was trapped by the illusory power.
Ming Luo sighed slightly. It seemed like he had overestimated this young man …
...
In the illusory realm, Ning Fan was holding two Ming Luo Fruits, standing in the boundless seven-colored world.
Rivers were flowing in the sky, mountains were hanging upside down in the sky, beasts were walking upside down … this was an illusory realm that subverted common sense.
Thousands of seven-colored fruits were floating in the sky, seemingly real and illusory at the same time. Among them, only some were real while the rest were fake.
If one plucked a fake fruit, the illusory power would enter his body …
As soon as he entered the illusory realm, he activated the first level of Yin Yang Transformation. An Immortal Emperor's cultivation technique had a great resistance against the illusory power. As soon as this cultivation technique was activated, Ning Fan immediately found a real Ming Luo Fruit and plucked it successfully. But immediately, the surrounding illusory power doubled, making it hard for Ning Fan to identify it again.
Fortunately, after pondering for a long time, Ning Fan finally found out the whereabouts of a real Ming Luo Fruit from a trace of it and plucked it into his bosom. However, the illusory power in the surroundings immediately doubled.
At this point, the first level of Yin Yang Transformation couldn't identify the real Ming Luo Fruit at all.
At this moment, Ning Fan had an idea. He might as well take a gamble … but he was wrong.
He held the third Ming Luo Fruit in his hand, but it was fake. As soon as it touched his hand, it immediately burst into bursts of seven-colored mist, enveloping Ning Fan.
Ning Fan's expression changed. He knew that his body had been invaded by the illusory power. He immediately revealed a vigilant look and scanned the surroundings, but nothing happened.
But after a burst of fragrance, the naked figures of countless women suddenly appeared in front of him.
After Ning Fan let out a cold snort, these illusory figures exploded and returned to the seven-colored mist. But immediately, the seven-colored mist condensed into a familiar figure of a woman.
The girl in front of him was wearing a fox fur coat and had her hair combed into a maiden's bun. She was looking at Ning Fan pitifully.
"Big Brother Fan, if you kill Zhihe, you can break free from the illusory power. You can even obtain a Ming Luo Fruit … but, are you willing to do it …?"
This' Zhihe 'was undoubtedly an illusion formed by the illusory power …
"Zhihe …"
Ning Fan closed his eyes, a trace of desolation appeared in his eyes.
Kill the illusion and obtain the Ming Luo Fruit … but if he didn't, he would be trapped by the illusory power.
The 'Zhihe' in front of him was just an illusion. Ning Fan only needed to summon the Separation Slayer and he could easily break this illusion … but he couldn't slash this sword … even if it was an illusion.
The illusory power went straight to one's heart … how was this illusory power? This was clearly the Heart's Devil!
"If I slash this sword, not only will I obtain the Ming Luo Fruit, but it will also greatly benefit me in breaking through to the Gold Core realm and severing my emotions in the future. However, if I slash this sword down, it will be a blasphemy to Zhihe … I don't want this Ming Luo Fruit anymore! "
Ning Fan's eyes flashed with a trace of determination. At this moment, the last trace of greed for the Ming Luo Fruit in his heart had dispersed, leaving only perseverance.
The moment the greed dispersed, the 'Zhihe' in front of him suddenly exploded into colorful mist, and the clouds of mist vanished rapidly.
The illusory power was finally broken … and there was a Ming Luo Fruit at the place where the colorful mist exploded. However, there wasn't a trace of joy on Ning Fan's face, there was only a sigh.
"Severing my emotions, severing my Heart's Devil … although I didn't slash Zhihe, I still managed to escape once … I wonder if I can escape again the next time I form my core …"
"But I finally know the way to take away the Ming Luo Fruit. Over there is Thoughtless! In the end, I, Ning Fan, can't achieve Thoughtless … but even if Ning Fan can't do it, 'Mo Ning' can! "
Ning Fan's eyes flickered with contemplation. A moment later, he patted the top of his head, immediately transforming into two figures in white and black.
The one in white was Bai Fan, and the one in black was Mo Ning.
Bai Fan had a smile on his face, but he was immediately bewitched by the illusory power. As for Hei Yi, his heart was as cold as a stone. There was no temptation that could move his heart.
"Do I want to take away these Ming Luo Fruits? Humph, it doesn't matter if they are real or fake, I'll just take them away! "
He waved his hand fiercely and immediately obtained dozens of Ming Luo Fruits from the countless floating Ming Luo Fruits. At the same time, a heaven-defying illusory power swept toward the black-robed man, but he was not affected at all.
"I, Thoughtless, how can you bewitch me? Break!"
The illusory power was shattered by his cold gaze!
...
In the outside world, Ming Luo had been waiting for a long time, but he still couldn't see Ning Fan getting the third Ming Luo Fruit, which made him feel slightly regretful.
The time for the illusion to close was about to come, but there was still no sign of Ning Fan coming out.
"What did he actually do inside … forget it, he must have been trapped by the illusory power after obtaining two Ming Luo Fruits … let me save him."
Ming Luo shook his head. When he was about to take action and forcefully pull Ning Fan out, his eyes suddenly turned solemn. That solemn expression turned into astonishment at an astonishing speed, and the astonishment became even more intense!
"He has obtained the third Ming Luo Fruit … wait, he has obtained the fourth, the fifth … this, this …"
Ming Luo's eyes were dazed. He realized that for the first time in his life, the Ming Luo Illusory Realm began to show signs of collapse before it closed.
"What did that kid actually do in the illusory realm?! He actually caused the illusory realm to collapse in advance! "
With a rumbling sound, two rays of black and white light rushed out from the illusory realm, turning into the figure of a young man in white and black cloak. At the next moment, the illusory realm closed with a loud bang!
"What a pity … Hei Yi is a little too reckless … otherwise, he could have obtained a few more Ming Luo Fruits … but he only obtained ten!"
"Uh … you obtained ten Ming Luo Fruits in the illusory realm!"
Ming Luo's zombie-like face twisted into a ball because of disbelief.
Ten fruits … In the history of the Ming Luo Tree Clan, those who could obtain ten Ming Luo Fruits in a trip to the illusory realm were all experts above the Nascent Soul realm. As for Nascent Soul experts, no matter how monstrous they were, they would at least be a few hundred years old … even if they cultivated using the Isolated World Force like the Lost World Palace, they would still need to go through hundreds of years of tempering in the illusory realm.
Without hundreds of years of experience, it was impossible to resist the illusory power of the tenth Ming Luo Fruit.
But Ning Fan's bone age didn't seem to be 20 years old no matter how Ming Luo looked at him.
If Ming Luo knew that Ning Fan's incarnation in the illusory realm could ignore the illusory power, he would certainly be more shocked.
"I was just lucky."
Ning Fan smiled bitterly. It was indeed a bitter smile.
When he was invaded by the Heart Devil and faced the interrogation of the Heart Devil that killed 'Zhihe', he avoided it.
But could he avoid it the next time he broke through to the Gold Core realm?
Because his Heart Devil was Zhihe …
