In order to revive the Sword Ancestor's orthodoxy, Ning Fan had lost a lot of devil blood. His ancient devil ancestor blood was even used up.
Due to this reason, Ning Fan's qi and blood looked rather weak. In the eyes of Bei Xiaoman and her daughter, it became the irrefutable evidence that Ning Fan was' beyond cure '.
When she thought of Ning Fan's slightly pale complexion, Yuan Yao became even more determined to cure him.
She sent someone to Eternal Spring Island, saying that she had something to ask of them. However, her message was like a stone sinking into the ocean. She did not get any reply from them.
…
Eternal Spring Island in Northern Heaven.
Eternal Spring Island was where Daoist Chang Sang's dojo was located. It was one of the nine great blessed lands of Northern Heaven. The island was like spring all year round with abundant spiritual qi. As far as the eye could see, it was filled with thriving medicinal fields.
Those who did not know the truth would certainly be enchanted by the beautiful scenery of the medicinal fields.
Only those ancient monsters with powerful spirit senses could sense that countless corpses of cultivators were buried under the medicinal fields. All of them were the failed cultivators who came here to seek medicine and treatment.
The people of the world only knew that Daoist Chang Sang was kind and skillful.
However, they did not know that one would have to pay a huge price and take a huge risk to ask for Daoist Chang Sang's help.
First of all, one would have to kneel on Eternal Spring Island for a thousand years to express their sincerity.
Secondly, one would have to complete the nine trials that Daoist Chang Sang set up. Only by passing all of them would one be qualified to receive his help. Failure would mean death.
The difficulty of the nine trials was extremely high. Seventy to eighty percent of those who came to seek medicine would die during the trials. In the end, their bones would be buried under the medicinal fields and become fertilizer.
At this moment, four disciples of the Eternal Spring Sect who were shrouded in seven-colored luck were conducting the nine trials for a group of people who came to seek medicine.
These four disciples were all Immortal Emperor Realm cultivators. Their appearances were even more peculiar. One was tall, one was short, one was fat and one was skinny. Due to the luck on their bodies, they could only see their rough silhouettes but not their actual appearances.
While the nine trials were going on, the skinny Immortal Emperor among the four disciples suddenly exclaimed. Then, he bent his palm and drew a messenger flying sword from the starry sky.
"Who is seeking medicine this time?" The eldest disciple of Daoist Chang Sang, the tallest immortal emperor, asked bluntly. His immortal title was Great Emperor East Plague.
"It's the Palace Lord of the Lost World Palace, a little girl who's shedding space." The skinny immortal emperor said in disdain. He was the fourth disciple of Daoist Chang Sang, and his immortal title was Great Emperor North Plague.
"Who is this girl asking for medicine for? Could it be that it was for his master, the old woman of the Western Palace? If that's the case, it's not like I can't let her off the hook. However, what's strange is that I don't remember Master making a move against the old woman from the Western Palace. "The second disciple, the Southern Plague Great Emperor, asked.
"It's not for the old woman in the Western Palace. It seems to be for one of her juniors."
"Then just ignore her! This woman really doesn't know the rules. Even those ancient Immortal Venerables have to kneel for a thousand years when they come to my Eternal Spring Island to ask for medicine! Hehe, is sending a voice transmission to ask for medicine something she can do? Does she think she is an immortal king or an immortal emperor? "The third disciple, Great Emperor Western Plague, coldly sneered.
"Third Junior Brother is right. Let's quickly deal with this batch of people who are asking for medicine. Let's not waste time on the matter of a little kid from the Lost World Palace!" The second disciple, Great Emperor Western Plague, nodded.
To these high and mighty immortal emperors, Yuan Yao was just a little kid. The mere title of the palace lord of the Lost World Palace could not scare them at all.
As such, Yuan Yao's message was like a stone sinking into the ocean. There was no response.
For several days, Yuan Yao did not receive any reply. How could she not understand the meaning of Eternal Spring Island?
"It seems like I have to go to Eternal Spring Island personally. Only then will there be a glimmer of hope to solve this matter …" Yuan Yao sighed helplessly.
It was not that she did not know the rules. It was also not that she was unwilling to go to Eternal Spring Island personally and kneel for a thousand years.
The problem was that the second round of the grand competition was just around the corner. Would the Lost World Palace let the palace lord go? Of course not.
If she wants to go to Eternal Spring Island, she would at least have to wait until all three rounds of the grand competition are over. Otherwise, her master alone would never let her leave the island. She really had no choice.
"After the third round of the grand competition is over, I will go to Eternal Spring Island personally …" Yuan Yao made up her mind.
…
Ning Fan had lost too much of his devil blood. Of course, he had to solve this matter.
Fortunately, he had taken a large amount of Ancient Devil Blood Wine from the Green Lotus Sword Clan. As long as he refines all of the blood wine, he could easily replenish the devil blood that he had lost.
The only problem was that the devil talisman's injuries were too severe. It was not easy to recover.
Previously, in order to revive the Sword Ancestor's orthodoxy, Ning Fan had sacrificed all of his ancient devil ancestral blood. In total, he had sacrificed ten drops of ancestral blood.
Among these ten drops of ancestral blood, six of them were produced on the spot in the Green Lotus Sword Clan. As these six drops had yet to fuse with the devil talisman, even if they were lost, the damage to the devil talisman would be negligible. However, the problem was the four drops of ancestral blood that he sacrificed in the beginning. Those four drops of ancestral blood had already fused with the devil talisman. The consequence of forcefully sacrificing them was that all 236 strokes on the devil talisman were broken. They needed to be repaired one by one.
Refining the Ancient Devil Blood Wine did not take too long.
However, repairing the devil talisman was definitely not something that could be completed in three to five days.
"Xiao Man, I have some urgent matters to attend to. I need to enter the Lost World Tower for a while. Is there a Lost World Tower that I can enter and exit at any time? I want to enter the tower for a few days of seclusion. When the second round begins, I will naturally come out and become your chess soldier. "Ning Fan asked.
"You want to enter the Lost World Tower? No way. The second round of the grand competition is just around the corner. The time power of the entire Sea of Time has been drawn to the Four Corners Chess Realm. All the Lost World Towers have been sealed. It's useless for you to enter … Wait. Why don't you just go to the Four Corners Chess Realm to cultivate? The flow of time in the Four Corners Chess Realm is one ten-thousandth of the outside world. Besides, the flow of time there is no restriction on the level of one's cultivation base. It's much better if you just go to the Four Corners Chess Realm! "Bei Xiaoman answered.
The Four Corners Chess Realm that Bei Xiaoman mentioned was the place where all the chess soldiers would fight after the second round begins.
"There are still five days before the second round begins. Is it inappropriate for me to go there in advance?" Ning Fan asked.
"Don't worry. I'm the Fourth Mistress of the Lost World Palace after all. I still have the authority to go there. There are still five days before the second round begins. In other words, you can stay in seclusion for fifty thousand days and nights in the chess world. I think such a long period of time should be enough for you. By the way, you have to bring this token of the Chess Devil with you. When the second round begins, this token will be the token for you to fight in the Four Corners Chess Realm. "
Bei Xiaoman handed Ning Fan an identity token.
It was the token for Ning Fan to participate in the second round. There were two lines of words engraved on the front of the token.
[Devil]
[Bei Xiaoman]
It meant that Ning Fan was Bei Xiaoman's chess soldier. The type of chess soldier was the devil among the fiendgods, demons, immortals and ghosts.
There were also two lines of words engraved on the back of the token.
[No Chess World Talisman]
[No Military Merit]
"What's a Chess World Talisman?" Ning Fan asked casually.
"After the second round begins, all the chess soldiers in the chess world will be randomly given three Chess World Talismans. If you want more Chess World Talismans, you will have to purchase them separately. Speaking of Chess World Talismans, this item is especially important. It's an ancient talisman that can only be used in the chess world … "
Bei Xiaoman explained at least one hundred thousand words.
Thus, she had to omit one hundred thousand words.
"Alright. I understand." Ning Fan said indifferently.
"You really understand? You've memorized the types, effects and prices of the three thousand Chess World Talismans? "Bei Xiaoman asked with uncertainty.
"Mm. I've memorized them all. In other words, when the second round begins, I only need to eliminate all the enemies that I encounter."
"No. You don't understand at all …" Bei Xiaoman held her forehead helplessly.
"Forget it. I chose you as a chess soldier because I don't expect you to make many military merits for me. If you don't want to remember these rules, you don't have to. When the second round begins, I will send other chess soldiers to protect you. You just need to protect yourself. That's more important than anything else. You have to remember that you're a patient. Don't force yourself if you encounter any problems. When the battle begins, if the enemy's chess soldiers want to kill you, just run away. Don't be afraid even if you can't escape because no one will really die in the chess world … "Bei Xiaoman reminded him repeatedly.
…
Thus, Ning Fan entered the Four-Sided Chess World five days earlier by using the backdoor.
The Four-Sided Chess World was a damaged Vast Thousand World that was controlled by the Lost World Palace. It would only be opened for a short period of time during the second round of the grand competition. It would be in a sealed state and no one was allowed to enter during the competition.
The rules of the second round of the grand competition required the disciples of the three palaces of the Lost World Palace to compete in the Six Games of Chess in the outside world. The chess soldiers that the disciples chose would fight each other in the Four-Sided Chess World according to the requirements of the game.
For example, if Bei Xiaoman moves the Chess Devil that represented Ning Fan during a game of chess, Ning Fan's position in the chess world would be moved according to the same command.
If Bei Xiaoman wanted to use Ning Fan to eat other people's chess pieces, Ning Fan would fight against the chess soldier that represented the chess piece.
If Ning Fan could defeat the chess soldier in the chess world, he would succeed in eating the chess piece.
If Ning Fan was not the opponent's match, he would fail in eating the chess piece.
Bei Xiaoman's chess skills were very good but the strength of the chess soldiers was equally important. Otherwise, she would not be able to eat the chess pieces of the enemy and win.
Usually, the battles between chess soldiers would not result in real death. This was because the Four-Sided Chess World contained some kind of special power. Any chess soldiers who died in the chess world could be reborn in the outside world.
In the battles between chess soldiers, not only did they have to compete with each other's cultivation base, but they also had to pay attention to their killing techniques. These techniques were the reasonable use of the Chess World Talisman.
The Chess World Talisman was a kind of magical talisman. It only existed in the Four-Sided Chess World and it could only be used in the chess world. It could not be brought out of the outside world.
There were a total of three thousand types of Chess World Talisman which corresponded to the number of Great Dao in the Heavenly Cycle. Each of them had immeasurable power. If the Chess World Talisman is used well, a cultivator with a lower cultivation base could even defeat a cultivator with a higher cultivation base.
Then, here comes the question.
What were the three thousand types of Chess World Talisman? What were their effects?
The chess soldiers of other clans had long memorized the types and effects of the three thousand types of Chess World Talisman. However, they still felt that it was not enough.
Ning Fan, on the other hand, could not even recognize all the names of the three thousand types of Chess World Talisman …
If it wasn't because his strength was far stronger than the other chess soldiers, he would definitely make his teammates cry if he participated in the competition with such an attitude.
"Forget it. I'll slowly study the Chess World Talisman when the second round begins. Right now, recovering my devil blood is more important …"
Ning Fan hung the token of the Chess Devil on his waist according to the rules of the second round. Then, he began to search for a suitable place for seclusion in the Four-Sided Chess World.
The mountains and rivers in the Four-Sided Chess World were arranged according to the layout of the Six Bo Chessboard.
The four corners of the chess world represented four camps which corresponded to the east, west, south and north palaces of the Lost World Palace.
In fact, the Lost World Palace did not just consist of the three palaces. There used to be the Nangong Palace as well. However, due to some reasons, the Nangong Palace's bloodline was completely wiped out. It was a tragic event.
This led to a result. Ever since the Nangong Palace was annihilated, the chess soldiers could only choose between the eastern army, the northern army and the western army in the second round of the competition.
Ning Fan was a chess soldier of Bei Xiaoman. Naturally, he belonged to the western army. Before the second round officially begins, he could not wander around the chess world. He could only move around in the military camp of the western army. Otherwise, he would be deprived of his right to be a chess soldier.
Although it was called a military camp, it actually covered a vast area.
There were thirty thousand immortal mountains in the military camp. Each of the mountains had a cave dwelling for the chess soldiers of the western army to rest.
There were ten shops. These shops were where the chess soldiers used their battle points to buy the chess world talismans. At the moment, the shops had not been opened yet.
There were eight hundred armored soldiers of the western army patrolling the area. All of them were Nascent Soul Realm stone puppets.
As soon as Ning Fan entered the military camp of the western army, a Nascent Soul Realm puppet immediately walked towards him and asked with an expressionless face. "You are the 22nd chess soldier of the western army to enter this world in advance. Entering this world in advance is already against the rules. You must not cause any more trouble here. Otherwise, you will be deprived of your right to be a chess soldier and be expelled from this world. It will be too late for regrets! "
"Understood." Ning Fan nodded his head. He was not angered by the arrogant tone of the Nascent Soul Realm stone soldier.
These patrolling Nascent Soul Realm stone soldiers had low spiritual intelligence. They would speak arrogantly to everyone. They would not change their tone just because someone's cultivation base was higher than theirs.
Even though their cultivation base was low, these Nascent Soul Realm stone soldiers seemed to be like the rulers of the chess world. They had supreme authority.
Even an ancient Immortal Venerable might be chased out of this world if he offended these stone soldiers.
"The flow of time in this world is one ten-thousandth of that of the outside world. Based on the time in this world, there are still 48576 days before the second round begins. Before that, you can choose a cave abode to rest in. Once you have chosen a cave abode, you cannot change it. Before the second round ends, you cannot leave on your own. Otherwise, you will be deprived of your right to be a chess soldier. If you have any doubts, you can look for any of the patrolling soldiers here. There will be someone who will answer your questions. "The patrolling soldier continued.
"I understand."
Ning Fan no longer talked nonsense with the patrolling soldier. He immediately chose a cave abode and began his seclusion to repair the devil talisman.
Before him, there were already 21 chess soldiers of the western army who entered this world in advance through the backdoor.
After him, there would be others who would enter this world in advance. Obviously, Bei Xiaoman was not the only one who had the special authority.
"Another chess soldier has entered this world? I wonder which clan he belongs to …" The chess soldiers of the western army who had entered this world in advance vaguely sensed Ning Fan's arrival.
However, due to the restriction on spirit sense in the four-sided chess world, these people could not spread out their spirit sense to sense Ning Fan. Thus, they did not know who had entered this world.
Repairing the devil talisman was destined to be a boring and long process.
After Ning Fan came to the chess world, he did not go out for a single day. What he did every day was nothing more than staying in his cave abode, drinking some ancient devil blood wine and using the power of the wine to repair the devil talisman.
In the blink of an eye, ten years had passed.
Ning Fan had finally repaired the devil talisman. All the ancient devil blood essence that he had lost had also been replenished.
The grade of his ancestral blood finally began to rise rapidly!
Unlike the hasty cultivation in the Green Lotus Sword Clan, Ning Fan had a lot of time to slowly polish his ancestral blood in the four-sided chess world.
Every time he cultivated a drop of ancestral blood, Ning Fan would spend several years to carefully integrate the ancestral blood into the devil talisman.
The only troublesome thing was that there seemed to be a force in the chess world that hindered Ning Fan from concealing the phenomenon of his ancestral blood.
As a result, every time Ning Fan cultivated a drop of ancient devil ancestral blood, everyone would know about it. The expressions of all the chess soldiers changed and they gathered together to discuss about it.
"Hiss! Someone has cultivated the ancestral blood of the devil race in the south-western cave abode! I wonder if he is a real ancient devil or a fake ancient devil! "
"He should be a fake ancient devil. Where can we find an ancient devil or a devil ancestor during the Dharma Ending Era?"
"Even if he is just a fake devil ancestor, he should be proud of himself. Being able to cultivate a drop of fake devil ancestral blood, even if he isn't an ancient Immortal Venerate, I'm afraid he is also an extremely powerful being among the True Immortals."
This was the discussion among the chess soldiers of the western army when Ning Fan cultivated the first drop of ancient devil ancestral blood.
In the blink of an eye, two years had passed. Ning Fan began to integrate the second drop of ancestral blood into the devil talisman.
"What?! It has only been less than two years and that person has actually cultivated another drop of ancestral blood?! What exactly is his background?! "
"If that person is an Immortal Venerate devil cultivator, he must be an extremely powerful one!"
"Amazing! Amazing!"
"I admire him!"
Another few years passed and Ning Fan began to integrate the third drop of ancestral blood.
"Hiss! Three drops already! That person has cultivated three drops of ancestral blood! "
"Three drops of ancestral devil blood. Among the devil cultivators of the Northern Heaven, that person can be ranked in the top ten!"
"There's nothing we can do about it. Who asked the Northern Heaven to have so few devil cultivators?"
"Could this person be an Immortal King from somewhere?"
"Amazing! Amazing!"
"I admire him!"
A few years later, the fourth drop arrived.
"Four drops already! That person actually managed to cultivate four drops of ancestral devil blood in a row! "
"I must have seen a fake phenomenon!"
"Among the devil cultivators of the Northern Heaven, this person is at least ranked in the top five …"
"He must be an Immortal Emperor …"
A few years later, the fifth drop, the sixth drop, the seventh drop, the eighth drop …
The medicinal power of the ancient devil blood wine was just too massive. It was the blood wine that Daoist Nine Sword had spent his entire life collecting. It consumed a total of three hundred drops of pseudo-ancient devil ancestral blood to brew.
The more Ning Fan cultivated, the more ancestral blood he had!
The discussions in the military camp of the western army also became fewer and fewer!
After seeing the phenomenon of Ning Fan's ancestral blood, the chess soldiers of the western army were no longer surprised. They had already become numb to it.
When Ning Fan condensed the fourteenth drop of ancestral blood, a few chess soldiers who were playing chess and drinking tea in boredom raised their heads and glanced at him. Then, they lowered their heads and continued playing chess.
"The mirage in the Four Corners Chess World is really a creation of Heaven and Earth. I almost believed that someone really managed to cultivate fourteen drops of ancestral devil blood."
"Isn't it thirteen drops?"
"Isn't it sixteen drops?"
"Forget it. Who cares how many drops there are. Hurry up. It's time for you to leave. From the seventh level to the eighth level! "
Fifteen drops. Sixteen drops. Finally, the number of devil blood Ning Fan had was fixed at the seventeenth drop!
In terms of the number of ancestral blood, even the nine great devil ancestors who were suppressed in the Ancient Devils Abyss did not have as much as him. Of course, if it were those great ancient devils on the Devil Conferral Summit, there would be some who had stronger devil blood than Ning Fan.
"The cultivation of devil blood gets harder as I progress further. The amount of bloodline energy required to cultivate from the seventeenth to the eighteenth drop is enough for an ancient devil with royal bloodline to produce three drops of ancestral blood … If I didn't sacrifice ten drops of ancestral blood, I might be able to produce the nineteenth drop of devil blood or even the twentieth drop …"
Ning Fan was just making a casual calculation. He did not regret sacrificing the ten drops of ancestral blood.
When Ning Fan only had four drops of ancestral blood, he could only draw the devil talisman 236 times because he did not have enough ancestral blood to continue.
Now that he had seventeen drops of ancestral blood, he could finally continue drawing the devil talisman that he could not finish in the past.
He had too many wood elemental insights that he wanted to inscribe into the devil talisman.
He wanted to inscribe all the insights that he had gained when he suppressed water cultivators with the wood element!
He wanted to inscribe the qualitative changes of water and wood into the devil talisman!
However, all of these were not what he wanted to inscribe into the devil talisman.
He was a persistent cultivator. His devil path was obstinate and he did not have any regrets in the first place.
Today, however, he wanted to inscribe a trace of regret into the devil talisman. A trace of … regret.
The number of strokes on the devil talisman increased. Ning Fan used all of those strokes to draw a green lotus that seemed to be smiling in the wind.
In the past, Ning Fan only spent his life's insights and emotions to draw the devil talisman.
This time, however, he wanted to inscribe all of his regrets in the past into the devil talisman.
He wanted to inscribe that woman into his devil talisman.
He wanted to remember that woman in his heart.
This kind of regretful emotion might cause the devil talisman itself to be imperfect. However, he would rather keep this trace of imperfection than erase the green lotus from the devil talisman.
300 strokes.
400 strokes.
500 strokes.
506 strokes!
Ning Fan's devil talisman strokes could no longer increase. He needed more ancestral blood to continue improving.
The lines of the devil talisman swam on the surface of Ning Fan's body like tadpoles, making him look exceptionally demonic at this moment.
If ordinary people see the devil talisman on Ning Fan's body, they would only feel an inexplicable chill in their hearts but they would not understand the reason behind it.
However, if an ancient devil sees such a devil talisman, he would certainly be intimidated by the might of the ancestral blood!
If Ning Fan insists on intimidating them, an ancient devil with an ordinary bloodline would not even have the right to remain standing in front of him!
The increase in the grade of his devil blood did not directly increase Ning Fan's cultivation base. Instead, it increased his control over his devil sense by more than ten times!
In the past, Ning Fan could not step into the second stage of the Ancient Devil Atavism Technique because he could not bear the devil sense of the second stage. Once he steps into the second stage, his rationality would certainly be devoured by the devil sense and he would become a killing machine.
Now, however, he had a trace of qualification to step into the second stage of the Ancient Devil Atavism Technique with a clear mind!
"Let me try and see if I can step into the second stage of the Atavism Technique!"
Ning Fan activated the first stage of the Atavism Technique. His entire body emitted the blood steam of Blood Absorption Regeneration!
He began to attempt to step into the second stage of the Atavism Technique. This stage required the use of the Eternal Ancient True Body. Therefore, the Eternal Ancient True Body automatically manifested and slowly changed its appearance along with the second stage of the Atavism Technique.
From the appearance of a golden flame giant, he slowly turned into a Golden-Armored Tree Devil!
With Ning Fan's magic power of seventeen thousand Tribulation Tribulations, activating the Golden Flame True Body could increase his cultivation base to a Thousand Tribulation Realm.
Turning from the Golden Flame True Body into a Golden-Armored Tree Devil, Ning Fan's cultivation base once again increased to a Thousand Tribulation Realm. Now, his magic power was almost comparable to a Quasi-Saint of nineteen thousand Tribulation Realm!
"This appearance of a Golden-Armored Tree Devil is just like my second stage true body!"
"This is the second stage true body that is triggered by the Ancient Devil Atavism Technique. It should be different from the ordinary second stage true body … In the past, Old Man Shui Yan used the second stage of the Atavism Technique and transformed into a devil tail … I don't seem to have succeeded in drawing out the power of that devil tail …"
Ning Fan's true body closed his devil eyes and concentrated his mind like never before.
When he was concentrating his mind, he suddenly heard a voice calling out to him.
That voice seemed to be coming from a very, very deep place.
Ning Fan tried to find the source of the voice. Following the direction of the voice, his mind gradually sank into that unreachable place.
After he closed his eyes, the world was clearly pitch-black and he could not see anything. However, from that darkness, he saw an abyss that was darker than the darkness itself!
That dark abyss seemed to be connected to Ning Fan's devil sense. That was why he could still see it even though it was separated by an endless amount of time and space.
That abyss seemed to be sealed with countless devil creatures, waiting for the arrival of their prey. They were waiting for the day when they could escape from the devil abyss.
"* Hehehehe * * Another ancient devil is here. Sink down. Quickly, sink down …"
"This is the devil slave that I've taken a fancy to. No one is allowed to snatch him from me!"
"I hope he's someone who is decisive in killing. That devil slave last time was too useless. I just controlled him to kill his wife and daughter and he went completely crazy. What a trash."
"* Hehehehe * This little fellow looks a little familiar …"
"Oh? Old Water Freak, you know this little fellow? "
Among the devil creatures in the abyss, one of them who was called Old Water Freak vaguely recognized Ning Fan.
That Old Water Freak's qi gave Ning Fan an extremely familiar feeling!
During the battle of the Sovereign Heavenly Map, this person had once possessed the Water Drowning Emperor's body and fought against Ning Fan!
He was the owner of the Water Drowning Emperor's devil spirit!
He was the person who mocked Ning Fan for not being qualified to be a devil!
"* Hehehehe * With your innate potential, you will attain the second stage of ancestral awakening sooner or later. At that time, you will naturally know who I am. Before that, I will be watching you from the bottom of the abyss, waiting for you to come. However, even if you come, we devil spirits will not accept you because you are not qualified to be a devil! You can forget about obtaining the true power of rampage in your life! "
Those were the words that this devil used to mock Ning Fan that day!
"It's you!" Ning Fan obviously recognized this devil creature.
So that's how it is. The abyss that I'm seeing now is the abyss that the Water Drowning Emperor's devil sense fell into.
The Water Drowning Emperor had borrowed power from this abyss in exchange for his devil tail rampage!
That devil tail rampage was the true power of the second stage of ancestral awakening!
"* Hehehehe *! Get lost! Ant! Your devil sense is too weak. You are not qualified to be a devil at all. We devil spirits will never accept you! "Old Water Freak snorted coldly and suddenly let out a heaven-piercing devil roar.
The power of his roar was like countless devil seas crashing towards Ning Fan, nearly drowning the devil sense that Ning Fan had fallen into!
However, it was still slightly lacking. Ning Fan's devil sense did not get erased in the end!
It was because the level of Ning Fan's devil sense was no longer the same as before!
When Ning Fan first met Old Water Freak, he was just a devil ancestor with four bloodlines!
Now, he was the seventeenth blood devil ancestor. The level of his devil blood was countless times stronger than before!
"Impossible! How long has it been? How did his devil blood become so powerful?! "Old Water Freak was shocked.
Then, his sneer became even more intense.
"This young man must have borrowed some kind of opportunity to forcefully raise his devil power to this level. It's not worth mentioning! So what if you are the seventeenth blood devil ancestor? If it wasn't because my devil spirit was sealed, how could I not scare you away with my roar?! Unfortunately, even if you can enter the abyss of the devil dao, you still can't condense a devil tail without our help. It's impossible for you to reach the third stage of ancestral awakening and borrow power from us who are at the Third Step or above! "
That Old Water Freak seemed to have a very high standard. Ning Fan was obviously a terrifying ancient devil with seventeen bloodlines but he actually talked about him as if he was talking about trash.
As soon as the other devil creatures heard Old Water Freak belittling Ning Fan, they immediately asked for the reason.
After they found out that Ning Fan was actually a trash who did not deserve to be a devil, all of them lost interest in him. None of them wanted to take him as their devil slave anymore.
"The five innate spirits are gods, devils, demons, immortals and ghosts … In the past, I thought that ancient devils were imitating the divine spirits. Now that I think about it again, it seems to be inaccurate. Instead of saying that the second stage of ancestral awakening is a divine spirit, it's more like … a devil spirit! "
"This place seems to be an abyss of the devil dao where the devil spirits are sealed. Its actual location isn't in the Illusory Dream World but somewhere else. The reason why I can see this abyss is because of my devil sense which has entered the second stage of ancestral awakening. Thus, I have a trace of connection with this place … "
"The reason why the Submerged Water Emperor could grow a devil tail and his cultivation base skyrocketed was because he became the devil slave of these devil spirits. He gave up his dignity in exchange for power!"
Ning Fan suddenly sneered in disdain.
What he was disdainful of were the devil spirits of this place and the Submerged Water Emperor who served them as their master!
If in the eyes of the devil spirits of this place, only the servile Submerged Water Emperor deserved to be called a devil lord, then Ning Fan would rather never be qualified to be a devil!
The devil dao that he wanted to cultivate was definitely not these devil spirits in front of him!
What he wanted to cultivate was the Black Devil Dao that was taught to him by the Old Devil!
"Heeheehee … I told you to get lost. Didn't you hear me?!" That Old Water wanted to expel Ning Fan again.
However, why would Ning Fan listen to him?!
He would not leave!
He had no interest in the devil spirits of this place!
However, he was interested in this abyss of the devil dao!
Ning Fan kept sending his devil sense down. He wanted to send it straight into the deepest part of the abyss of the devil dao. Even the Submerged Water Emperor and the others did not dare to do this because once they make a mistake, their devil sense would be suppressed in the abyss forever and be imprisoned together with the devil spirits of this place!
"Heeheehee! What a reckless little fellow. Since you want to fall into this place and become one of us, then just fall into it! "
"Fall! Quickly fall into it! Come and suffer the pain of purgatory with us! "
"Strange. This young man doesn't seem to be an ordinary person. Why hasn't his devil sense been imprisoned by this abyss of the devil dao?"
"Wait. Why is there a ray of divine light hidden in this young man's devil sense?! He's a goddamn divine spirit! He's actually an ancient divine spirit! "
"F * ck!"
The devil spirits in the abyss seemed to have noticed Ning Fan's identity as an ancient divine spirit. Thus, they became extremely excited.
Those devil spirits began to curse and swear. The more they cursed, the uglier and uglier they became.
Thus, Ning Fan directly shut off his spiritual sense and stopped listening to their nonsense.
He sank his devil sense into the abyss of the devil dao and tried to form a devil tail that belonged only to him with his own devil sense!
He did not want any devil lord to reward him with a devil tail!
He wanted to cultivate and cultivate it by himself!
Unfortunately, it was too difficult.
Ning Fan had even used his comprehension ability of the Second Level of the Heavenly Being Realm but he only managed to condense a tail root.
In order to truly cultivate the first devil tail that belonged to him, it seemed like he would need an endless amount of time …
"Haha! He's indeed trash. It's just wishful thinking to cultivate a devil tail with his own efforts!"
"If he can cultivate a devil tail with his own strength, it would be equivalent to cultivating another identity of a devil spirit! Is this possible? Hahahaha! This young man isn't even a saint yet he's dreaming of doing something that even the Saint Defier Realm can't do! Ridiculous! Ridiculous! "
"But it's still very strange. Even if this young man is a divine spirit, he shouldn't be able to endure it after sinking into the abyss of the devil dao for so long …"
"No! There's something wrong with this young man's physique! "
"What kind of physique is this? Why haven't I seen it before?!"
"There seems to be five balls of spiritual qi protecting his devil sense. That's why he isn't afraid of this abyss of the devil dao!"
All the devil spirits were astonished!
Before these devil spirits were sealed, each of them was at least a Third Step expert. Now, however, they were all shocked speechless by a junior like Ning Fan!
Ning Fan shielded his spiritual sense. He was too lazy to listen to the nonsense of these devil spirits. Naturally, he did not know how many ancient existences he had shocked by not being afraid of the abyss of the devil dao.
He was just instinctively not afraid of the abyss of the devil dao in this place. That was why he dared to directly send his devil sense into this place.
As for why he was not afraid, Ning Fan also had no idea.
However, when five balls of clear qi flew out of his devil sense, four of which were dark and one of which was bright, he seemed to have understood something.
"I see. It's my Primordial Spirit Physique that is secretly protecting my devil sense …"
All of a sudden, Ning Fan had a bold idea!
There were too many devil spirits' power in this abyss of the devil dao. He wanted to try and see if he could use the Primordial Spirit Physique to cultivate the bloodline of ancient devil spirits!
"Absorb!"
As Ning Fan gave his order, the ball of clear qi that belonged to the devil spirit among the five balls of clear qi began to absorb the devil spirit power of the abyss of the devil dao at a crazy rate!
The devil spirit's clear qi that was originally dim finally showed signs of becoming brighter!
"Impossible! What kind of physique does this kid have? He actually dares to devour the abyss of the devil dao! "
"Devil God! He wants to become a true devil god! "
"Stop him! Quickly stop him! If the devil spirit power in this place dissipates, we will never be able to return! "
"Let's attack together and chase him away!"
…
Inside the four-sided chess world, Ning Fan suddenly let out a devil roar. His black hair grew longer and longer!
His second stage true body of the Tree Devil also began to turn extremely dark. It was the abyss of the devil dao that was countless times darker than the darkness itself!
* Roar *
Ning Fan let out a painful devil roar. That kind of pain was like giving birth to a new life.
Then, the first devil tail of black flames finally grew out from his back!
When the first devil tail of black flames grew out, Ning Fan's magic power skyrocketed by three thousand tribulations, reaching 22000 tribulations!
He was losing more and more of his rationality but the second devil tail was gradually growing out!
When the second devil tail grew out, his magic power skyrocketed to 25000 tribulations!
Inside his body, the devil spirit bloodline was being created and born!
This was the great opportunity that he had obtained by directly devouring the abyss of the devil dao!
The excessively violent magic power had exceeded the limit that Ning Fan could bear!
The skin of Ning Fan's tree devil began to crack. Black-colored devil blood kept flowing out from the wounds!
At this moment, Ning Fan's devil blood turned black!
At this moment, Ning Fan had the tendency of condensing his third devil tail!
If he can condense this devil tail, his magic power would increase by another two thousand tribulations. Unfortunately, the third devil tail broke before it could be condensed.
Someone was preventing him from devouring the abyss of the devil dao!
Those devil spirits that were sealed had attacked him together and chased him out of the abyss of the devil dao!
"Damn it. I was so close to condensing my third tail!" Ning Fan was unwilling to give up. He wanted to sink his devil sense into the abyss of the devil dao again.
Unfortunately, he could no longer do it!
His arrogant act of devouring the abyss of the devil dao had angered all the devil spirits in this world!
He had become the public enemy of all devil spirits!
He had become an absolute unregistered person in the abyss of the devil dao!
No one in the abyss of the devil dao would take the initiative to contact him anymore!
If he wanted to devour the abyss of the devil dao again, he could only go to the true reincarnation coordinates of the abyss and fight his way there. Then, he would seize it and plunder it!
Of course, it was an unrealistic thing …
"Just a little bit more. What a pity …" Ning Fan shook his head helplessly. He had no choice but to accept the fact that he only had Second Last.
Even though he only had Second Last, he was still the one who benefited from it. Thus, even though he felt regretful, he could still let it go.
In the end, he managed to forcefully cultivate the second stage of ancestral awakening and he even reached the second stage!
What was more precious was that!
He managed to cultivate a trace of devil spirit bloodline that belonged to him!
Unfortunately, this trace of devil spirit bloodline did not reach the level of the Crippled Devil Spirit Body. If he could really cultivate it to the level of the Crippled Devil Spirit Body, he might be able to awaken some kind of devil spirit innate talent.
After all, the Myriad Things Communication was the ability he obtained when he cultivated the Crippled Divine Spirit Body.
"In this state, my magic power is even stronger than many second level Quasi-Saints. Unfortunately, I can't maintain this state for long …"
In order to maintain this state, he needed to continuously burn the devil blood in his body in exchange for power!
In the first stage of ancestral awakening, he would absorb the blood of his enemies!
In the second stage, he would consume his own devil blood!
In just less than ten breaths of time, Ning Fan had already burned away one-tenth of his ancient devil blood essence. At this rate, he would only be able to maintain this state for one hundred breaths of time. Then, he would be done for!
He had no choice but to remove the state in a hurry. Moreover, he would need to cultivate diligently to replenish his devil blood.
After all, he had already drunk all the ancient devil blood wine. It would not be easy for him to replenish his devil blood.
Fortunately, the state of second last would not consume his ancestral blood. Otherwise, it would be really difficult for him to recover if he accidentally burned the ancestral blood in his body.
"As for the second stage of ancestral awakening technique, I can't simply use it unless I'm in a life-or-death situation …"
With Ning Fan's current strength, even if he could not defeat a second level Quasi-Saint, he did not need to risk his life. He could just leave calmly and the other party would not be able to stop him.
Only when he faces ancient great cultivators or multiple second level Quasi-Saints would he need to risk his life to escape.
Ning Fan pondered for a long time. Suddenly, he recalled something. He circulated his Genesis Primordial Spirit Body and released the five balls of clear qi.
At this moment, the five balls of clear qi were no longer four dark and one bright. Although the clear qi that belonged to the devil spirit had not been completely lit up, it had lit up one-fifth of it.
If the clear qi is completely lit up, it would mean that he had truly cultivated a devil spirit. At his current stage, he would at most possess a small amount of devil spirit bloodline.
A two-tailed devil spirit could only light up one-fifth of the devil spirit bloodline. From this point of view, he would at least need to cultivate a ten-tailed devil spirit before he could be considered to have truly cultivated the Crippled Devil Spirit Body! However, he did not know if there was any other way to cultivate a ten-tailed devil spirit after being rejected by the Abyss of Devil Dao.
"Not good! I forgot that this world can't conceal unusual phenomena. The trace of devil spirit bloodline that I have cultivated is highly likely to cause a monstrous phenomenon! "Ning Fan thought to himself.
If his devil spirit phenomenon is seen by others, wouldn't they know that he has cultivated a devil spirit body?
Then, he felt that he was worrying too much.
It was unknown if there was anyone who could recognize the devil spirit phenomenon in the Age of Chaos. Even if there was, it was unlikely that they were the chess soldiers who were not even immortal emperors.
…
Just as expected!
The fact that Ning Fan had cultivated a small amount of devil spirit bloodline had indeed caused a terrifying phenomenon.
It was the phenomenon of ten thousand devils paying homage to him!
In the phenomenon, the shadow of the devil spirit that symbolized Ning Fan was sitting on a throne. Below the throne were the shadows of countless ancient devils prostrating themselves on the ground and worshiping him devoutly!
Even a Quasi-Saint ancient devil!
An ancient great cultivator or an ancient devil!
Even the shadows of Saints and ancient devils were worshiping Ning Fan devoutly!
Such a phenomenon was simply ridiculous and ridiculous!
Those chess soldiers of the western army who had long become numb to the phenomenon did not even bother to look at it anymore.
It was because the phenomenon was too fake!
Saints were noble beings. Even when facing a Fourth Step Immortal Sovereign, they would not kneel to him. How could it be possible for all the saints to kneel to welcome the arrival of ten thousand devils?
"Amazing! Amazing!"
"I really admire you!"
"This mirage is becoming more and more realistic!"
"I almost believed it! Hahaha! "
"Come, come, come. Let's drink. Why bother about it? It's just a mirage!"
Joyful laughter resounded in the western army's camp.
This scene proved the old saying again.
When a high-ranking officer hears the Dao, he practices diligently.
When a middle-ranking officer hears the Dao, he either lives or dies.
When a low-ranking officer hears the Dao, he laughs loudly. If he doesn't laugh, he won't be able to attain the Dao!
"Looking at the time, the second round is about to officially begin …"
Ning Fan walked out of his cave residence and summoned a patrolling stone soldier to him. He then asked him about the current time.
In the chess world, there were less than one hundred days before the start of the second round.
If converted to the time in the outside world, it would be about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.
"In order to recover my devil blood, I have forgotten about interrogating the female demon. Fine. After I help Xiaoman win the second round, I'll deal with this demon again."
