The bad news was that the spiritual veins within a thousand miles of Ju Shan Pass had been destroyed. However, this matter was shouldered by Revered Snow alone. He claimed that he had used the power of the earth veins to heal himself. As such, no one dared to pursue the matter further. Unfortunately, even if the demon tide passed, the Ju Shan Pass would lose its Spiritual Vein and become a useless pass.
The good news was the recovery of Venerable Snow and the antidote!
It had already been one and a half months since Ning Fan entered the territory of Great Jin. There was only one and a half months left before the teleportation formation would be activated.
He had no time to waste. He had to obtain battle merits!
As the day of the decisive battle drew near, Revered Snow gave the order. Nineteen Nascent Soul Realm cultivators of the Rain Palace and fourteen Nascent Soul Realm cultivators of the Jin Army, a total of thirty-three people were to form a team of three and each of them would lead a combat division to annihilate the demon tide stronghold.
The reason why there was no end to the demon tide was that there were Nascent Soul Realm old demons who set up "Demon Enlightening Cities" in the fallen lands. They used the Demon Enlightening Techniques to enlighten the little demons!
This kind of enlightenment technique could forcibly turn an ordinary domestic animal into a demon. It could also forcefully increase the demonic power of a Vein Opening, Harmonious Spirit and Gold Core demonic beast by one fold. However, the price to pay was that the demonic beast would die within a few months. Moreover, the demonic beast would lose its mind and become crazy.
The demon tide was only delaying the demon general's transformation into a dragon. However, if they ignored it, it would be troublesome to annihilate the demons in one go.
Ning Fan was responsible for eliminating Ling Jue Ding of the northwest region!
There was a demon city located at the peak of the mountains. It specialized in transforming flying demons, and it was rumored that there were several Nascent Soul old demons guarding it.
Outside of Ju San Pass, a group of 21 Gold Core Realm cultivators and 257 Harmonious Spirit Realm cultivators of Jin Country boarded the 'Jin Shuttle' and followed Ning Fan and the others towards Mount Ling Jue!
The Jin Shuttle was a shuttle-shaped flying boat. Its speed was extremely fast, incomparable to a ship. However, its shortcoming was that this boat was too small, making it difficult to form a defensive formation. Moreover, its speed was so fast that it created wind, which was not something that a Vein Opening junior could withstand. Only Harmonious Spirit experts and above could ride on it.
One of them was Jie Xiu and the other was Yun Ruowei.
The teams were decided based on who would go to Ju Shan Pass. Yun Ruowei was the last to arrive, while Ning Fan and Jie Xiu were the last to arrive.
There was a subtle awkwardness between Ning Fan and Yun Ruowei. To Ning Fan, taking liberties with Yun Ruowei that day was really an act of helplessness. However, towards Yun Ruowei, the deep-rooted Heart Devil was not something that could be appeased by a mere apology.
"I'm sorry about what happened that day!"
"I've already forgotten about what happened at Lanruo Temple. You don't have to worry about it! As for you, I know all about your background. It's best if you don't try to be brave. If there are any mid-stage Nascent Soul monsters in the city, I'll deal with them. "
Yun Ruowei was a Mid Nascent Soul Realm expert. Even though he had a lot of trump cards, he was still just a Half-Step Gold Core Realm cultivator. Even if he had a trump card that could block Yun Kuang's sword, even if he could kill Gold Core Realm demons like ants, even if he had a Fourth Revolution Pill Refinement Technique, it would still be very dangerous for him to fight a Mid Nascent Soul Realm demon to the death.
Yun Ruowei's words did not contain any contempt. For example, killing a Nascent Soul Realm demon would cause the demon's nascent soul to flee. It was not easy to kill a demon's nascent soul. From her point of view, Ning Fan was not a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator after all. He could not teleport. It would be difficult for him to eliminate the old demon's nascent soul …
Ning Fan did not refute or explain. The battle plan was made by Jie Xiu and Yun Ruowei. He stood at the bow of the shuttle with his hands clasped behind his back and his eyes closed.
Beneath his feet were ruins, old mountains, and rivers. It was a desolate sight.
There were also groups of reckless demons that were scattered in groups of three to five to stop the shuttle.
Most of them were Harmonious Spirit Realm demons. Occasionally, there were Gold Core Realm demons. Every time they encountered a Peak Gold Core Realm demon, the cultivators on the shuttle would feel nervous.
However, what made them nervous was that before the fierce demons could even get close to the Jin Shuo, there would be an ink-colored sword sense in the sky, like a thick ink, and the demons below the early stage of Jindan Realm would die in batches almost immediately. The demons that came after them were crushed into powder by Ning Fan's fist!
The Burning Blood Pill was being refined in his body!
His killing intent was being released!
The Colossal Bone Secret Art was advancing to the third realm!
His battle merits were increasing rapidly like raindrops!
The 21 Gold Core Realm cultivators were at least Late Gold Core Realm. Many of them had followed other Nascent Soul Realm cultivators to hunt down demon waves. However, none of them could kill a small demon with just a sword sense like Ning Fan!
Sword sense! What a powerful ability!
It was a pity that Old Ancestor Zhou Ming was born in the Rain World. If he was in the Sword World, he would surely be valued by those Void Fragmentation Realm cultivators and be accepted as a disciple. After ten thousand years, he would surely become another Void Fragmentation Realm Sword Emperor!
With Ning Fan taking care of everything, these Gold Core Realm cultivators were more than happy to not risk their lives. They only attacked occasionally to kill the small demons that slipped through the net. Safety was their top priority.
His sword sense had a great effect on the consumption of his spirit power. However, Ning Fan had a lot of recovery pills. Once his spirit power was depleted, it would be replenished immediately.
In three days, he traveled a total of one hundred thousand li. He had killed more than a thousand demons and gained 250 thousand battle merits!
When he was killing the demons, a Peak Gold Core Realm old demon condensed a Dao Fruit and was kept by him.
In this way, there were two Dao Fruits in his storage pouch! This would be the method to rapidly increase his cultivation after breaking through to the Gold Core Realm!
Yun Ruowei and Jie Xiu were in charge of arranging the formations of the Harmonious Spirit Realm cultivators and assigning tasks to the Gold Core Realm cultivators.
Ning Fan was only responsible for eliminating the demons that blocked his way!
Three days later, he was already close to the peak!
A thousand miles away, there was a mountain that was tens of thousands of zhang tall. It was like a blade that pierced the heavens, extremely steep and extraordinary. At the top of it, there was an enormous demon city that was covered in black energy.
The entire sky was covered by haze. When the Jin Shuttle approached, a black wave of demons immediately rushed out from the city. There were tens of thousands of them!
A murderous and bloody yao energy spread. Even the jindan of the battalion changed expression.
"Who would have thought! Dianyao City actually enlightened so many monsters! "
Fortunately, these tens of thousands of demons were mostly Vein Opening Realm birds. There were less than a thousand Harmonious Spirit demons and less than a hundred Gold Core demons. Even so, the number of demons here far exceeded the cultivators on the shuttle.
Four streaks of light flew out from the demon city and stood in the air. All four of them were Nascent Soul Realm old demons!
The three early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators had yet to stabilize their realms, as if they had been forcibly raised to the Nascent Soul realm. As for the middle-stage Core Formation cultivator, he was a lion-haired old man. His appearance was ordinary. However, his eyes were filled with bloodlust. Furthermore, there was a crimson symbol on his forehead.
"Haha! Arrogant humans! How dare you invade the hinterland of my demon race with such a small number of people. Kill! "
As soon as he gave the order, tens of thousands of demons immediately stood on top of the demonic clouds and swept towards them from a thousand li away!
The demonic clouds were too fast. In less than ten breaths, they would collide with the shuttle!
On the Jin Shuttle, Jie Xiu and Yun Ruowei's expressions were solemn.
"I didn't expect them to have four Nascent Soul Realm cultivators. However, from what I can see, three of them were awakened by a secret technique. Their strength should be weaker than me. However, the middle-stage Core Formation cultivator is a genuine old demon. He might even be the companion of the demon general …"
"There's no other way. Leave the lion-haired old demon to me. As for the other three, you and Fellow Daoist Zhou Ming will deal with them … Abandon the shuttle and attack!"
Under Yun Ruowei's command, 21 late Gold Core Formation cultivators and 257 Harmonious Spirit Realm cultivators flew up from the shuttle and formed a formation to face the demon tide.
As for Yun Ruowei, she took the lead and teleported towards the lion-haired old demon. The lion-haired old demon seemed to have realized that Yun Ruowei was the leader of the human cultivators. He immediately soared into the sky and prepared to fight!
Ning Fan's eyes were indifferent. There was no fear, only disappointment.
This lion-haired old demon was undoubtedly the companion of the demon general. However, he wasn't a female demon. As such, he couldn't keep him as a cauldron … Not all of the twelve demon companions were female. The plan to keep all twelve demons was canceled.
As such, the only way was to kill!
Wind and lightning moved around Ning Fan. Three zhang silver wings grew on his back!
With a flap of the wings, Ning Fan turned into a ray of silver light and dashed towards the demonic clouds!
His speed was only at the Early Nascent Soul Realm. However, his momentum made the lion-haired old demon's heart tremble!
"Exterminate!"
At this moment, Ning Fan was like a fiendgod!
With a flap of his wings, he entered an unstoppable realm! With a sweep of his sword sense, a black light shredded the demonic clouds into countless pieces. Immediately, hundreds of Vein Opening and Harmonious Spirit Realm demons were minced into pieces, wailing as they died!
Not enough! Not enough! Not enough!
The Burning Blood Pills were being refined one by one. The pain of blood burning spread throughout his body. His killing intent was rising!
After dozens of breaths, the two armies finally flew a thousand li away and engaged each other in close combat. However, the tens of thousands of demon soldiers were killed by Ning Fan with dozens of sweeps of his sword sense!
Each and every demon that met Ning Fan's gaze was filled with fear!
Under the effect of the Burning Blood Pills, his Colossal Bone Secret Art had broken through to the fourth realm of the third level!
Yun Ruowei was in a stalemate with the lion-haired old demon. She was secretly shocked by Ning Fan's powerful sword sense. Meanwhile, the lion-haired old demon's expression was as gloomy as water.
"Python King! Marten King! The two of you stop this man. Don't let him kill more small demons! Elephant King, go and eliminate that blind human! "
As soon as the lion-haired old demon gave the order, a twenty zhang tall fat man blocked Jie Xiu's path. A white-robed scholar and a yellow-robed skinny man attacked Ning Fan together.
As the demon tide clashed with the human army, countless demons and cultivators fell from the sky and died.
All of these turned into indifference in Ning Fan's eyes.
His blood was burning under the medicinal power. His eyes were like sharp swords, sweeping across the white-robed scholar and the yellow-robed skinny man!
The two demons' expressions changed drastically! His eyes were so sharp!
"Brother Huang, let's attack quickly. Don't show any mercy! This man is powerful! "
"Got it! Demonic art, 'Yellow Wind'! "
"Demonic art, 'Scaled Snake'!"
The two demons formed hand seals and turned into demons. They didn't have long to live. No matter how terrifying Ning Fan was, the two demons swore to fight to the death!
These two demonic arts had just reached the Nascent realm. However, the two demons' hand seals were obviously stiff and far from being proficient.
"Humph! This demonic art is not enough! Break! "
Ning Fan's sword sense swept across. Whether it was the yellow wind or the thousands of silver snakes formed by the demonic art, they were all crushed by the black sword sense!
As for Ning Fan, he patted his storage pouch and took out the black corpse.
"Black Armor, kill Bai Yi! I, kill the yellow-robed skinny man! "
As soon as he finished speaking, he stepped on the ground and flapped his wings. Like a sword light, he shot towards the yellow-robed skinny man.
Initially, the white-robed and yellow-robed demons worked together to deal with Ning Fan. They thought that they had the advantage in numbers, so they weren't afraid of Ning Fan. However, they never expected that Ning Fan had a Nascent Soul realm black-armored refined corpse!
The refined corpse threw out punches without defending itself against the white-robed scholar's demonic art. It allowed the demonic art to land on its body. Each punch carried endless corpse qi. Even if the white-robed man tried his best to evade, he was still affected by the corpse qi. His demonic force became more and more sluggish.
As for the yellow-robed skinny man, he was even more horrified. Under his disbelieving gaze, Ning Fan shouted coldly and turned into a thirty-six zhang tall giant!
The third level of the Colossal Bone Secret Art. Without a small realm, the giant's body grew to twelve zhang tall!
In front of the thirty-six zhang tall giant, the yellow-robed skinny man was only the size of the giant's thumb. The moment Ning Fan's body turned into a giant, the yellow-robed skinny man felt a sense of impending death!
"Ice Break!"
As the fist was thrown, the ice broke and thousands of zhang froze!
The heaven and earth around the yellow-robed skinny man shook violently. His treasure armor was shattered by the punch and he spurted out a mouthful of blood. He was already severely injured!
He knew that he would die if he tried to escape, but he would still die if he didn't. The yellow-robed skinny man made up his mind. The Yellow Wind Demonic Art swirled around his body and turned into three demonic shadows. Each of them held a yellow sand spear and rushed towards the giant's eye, trying to blind it.
Two of the three demonic shadows were illusory and one real. This technique was the most common minor demonic technique among the demonic arts, the Shadow Splitting Technique!
The purpose of separating the shadows was to confuse the enemy. However, this confusion turned into a trace of mockery in the eyes of the giant.
With a sweep of his sword sense, the two illusory shadows could not withstand the sword sense and exploded into nothingness. As for the yellow-robed skinny man, he felt a sweetness in his throat and spurted out a mouthful of blood!
"How … How could this be …"
Before the yellow-robed skinny man could finish his last sentence, the giant slammed his palm and crushed the yellow-robed Nascent Soul to death like a bird. Then, it swallowed the flesh and blood of the yellow-robed skinny man in one gulp!
When the yellow-robed skinny man died, a small yellow sable's Nascent Soul immediately stirred up a gust of demonic wind and escaped with a speed comparable to a Mid Nascent Soul Cultivator!
When a cultivator died, their soul could enter the Nascent Soul as long as their Nascent Soul was not destroyed. They could then use the Nascent Soul as their body to escape. Moreover, the teleportation speed of the Nascent Soul was usually faster than the cultivator's true body by a small realm. Unfortunately, the Nascent Soul and Demon Nascent Soul were extremely fragile. Unless they could find another body to reincarnate, even ordinary Core Realm Magical Techniques would be able to injure these Nascent Souls.
Seeing the Nascent Soul escaping, Ning Fan did not chase after it. He couldn't catch up to it, but there was no need to chase after it!
A lightning star flashed on the glabella of the giant. Immediately, thunder rumbled continuously within a hundred li radius!
The Nascent Soul escaped a hundred li in an instant. Before it could relax, it suddenly felt like it was being locked by lightning!
A bolt of lightning struck down from above its head!
The lightning struck fear into the Nascent Soul's face. It teleported again and escaped a hundred li away. However, its teleportation seemed to have teleported along with the lightning. No matter how far it escaped, the lightning would always hover above its head!
This scene was similar to the lightning tribulation of a Gold Core Realm demon. It was locked and unable to escape!
After teleporting for a few thousand li, the Nascent Soul's magical power finally became unstable. It couldn't escape anymore and was struck down by a bolt of lightning. It died instantly!
In less than ten breaths, Ning Fan had already killed a Nascent Soul!
The giant let out a loud roar. His voice was mixed with thunder. The lightning that struck a hundred li radius made the demons tremble in fear!
The Demon Race feared the lightning tribulation!
This was the reason why King Jin was willing to keep Ning Fan in Jin Country because of the Divine Star of Lightning!
The lion-haired man, the dark-skinned man and the white-robed man were shocked. Especially the white-robed man. After the death of the yellow-robed skinny man, he naturally became the giant's second target!
"No, not good!"
The thought of him, a dignified Nascent Soul Realm Demon King, being pinched to death by the giant like a sparrow made his heart tremble. Even if he escaped, he would still die. However, it was better than being pinched to death and eaten by the giant!
I don't want to die in the giant's mouth and be chewed to pieces! I don't want to!
He used a demonic technique to shake off the black corpse and teleported away. However, the primordial force of heaven and earth was dispersed by the giant's palm, causing his teleportation to fail!
"Ice Shatter!"
White Robed's snake bones were shattered. The giant's punch had shattered his Nascent Soul. Ninety percent of his demonic power was dispersed and he couldn't even teleport anymore!
His white snake body fled in a hurry. However, the giant took a step forward and caught up to him, slamming his palm down!
"Puff!"
The white snake spurted out blood. Its white scales peeled off in the air. It was pinched by the giant like an earthworm.
The giant sneered and chewed the snake's corpse, causing blood to drip down!
Die!
"Next!"
The giant's gaze fell upon the dark man who was fighting with Jie Xiu. The dark man's face was filled with fear.
Like the white snake and the yellow sable, he was a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator. Although he had the magical power of a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, his combat strength was still slightly lower than a real Nascent Soul Realm cultivator.
He was already riddled with scars from Jie Xiu's attack. How could he withstand the combined attacks of the giant, the black corpse and Jie Xiu?!
"Escape! I must escape! Even if I have to fight again, I must escape to another demon city and plan again! "
He fled in fear. Due to his carelessness, Jie Xiu's killing intent moved and hit his head with a three chi jade ruler. His brain splattered and he died.
His Nascent Soul wanted to escape, but Jie Xiu crushed it with another ruler!
The situation was reversed!
The last Nascent Soul Realm cultivator was the lion hair who was fighting with Yun Ruowei!
His face was filled with shock. He didn't know that he had misjudged them. The strongest among them wasn't Yun Ruowei but Ning Fan!
"Damn it! I spent a lot of effort to enlighten three Nascent Soul Realm demon kings, but they were all killed by you! All of you must die! I'll let you have a taste of the power of a Demon General! "
The lion hair pushed Yun Ruowei away with a palm strike. His face revealed a crazy smile and his finger touched the blood red rune on his glabella.
A blood-colored tyrannical aura immediately spread out, causing Yun Ruowei and Jie Xiu to be shocked.
"Not good. This is the attack of a Demon General. Quickly teleport away!"
Just as the two of them were about to use their own techniques to block this attack, they did not expect that Ning Fan would step on the sky with his giant body. With rumbling footsteps, he fearlessly walked towards the lion-haired man. Facing the blood-red light, he waved his hand and took out a blood-red jade slip.
At the same time, the shadows of two bloody giant carps collided in the sky. The demonic force shook the thousands of demons and tens of Harmonious Spirit cultivators to death!
Ning Fan also had the attack of a Demon General!
The two bloody lights gradually melted after a loud bang. There was no trace left in the sky except for a faint blood mist. The smile on the lion hair's face froze and turned into a look of shock!
"No! Impossible! This is the trump card that the Demon General gave to his companion. How did you get it?! I know it now. You killed the Demon General's companion and took it! You're dead! Human, you're dead! "
"I don't know whether I'll die or not. But you will die today and the items in your storage pouch will belong to me! Sword Finger, Mountain Shattering! "
The giant sneered and pointed his right finger downwards!
That finger was even larger than the lion-haired Demonic Body. Instantly, all of the mountains in the 500 kilometer area began to tremble and collapse!
Every time a mountain was destroyed, the sword light on the finger became sharper!
The power of the finger was comparable to a Mid Nascent Soul Realm cultivator's ultimate attack!
The giant's finger pressed down fiercely in the midst of the mountain collapsing and the earth cracking! It was a finger that was as heavy as the earth and as sharp as the sword Qi!
If it was in the past, the lion hair would have been able to withstand the finger. But after fighting with Yun Ruowei for a long time and activating the Demon General's attack, his demonic strength had been greatly reduced. It was extremely difficult for him to withstand the attack!
Moreover, the finger gave the lion hair an oppressive feeling of a thousand mountains, making him unable to teleport or evade. The only thing he could do was to withstand the attack!
"I'll fight you to the death!"
He gathered the remaining demonic strength in his palm and turned it into a ten zhang tall golden ball. He then blasted it towards the giant's finger!
Every time the golden ball exploded, the sky would tremble violently. The giant felt a great pain in his chest, but he did not retreat!
"Die!"
The giant wanted to kill the lion hair with his finger even if he was injured!
The golden ball was shattered! The thousand mountains shook and the lion hair spat out a mouthful of blood and fell from the sky!
The giant grabbed the lion hair with a ruthless expression and threw him into his mouth while the lion hair was still terrified.
Then, Ning Fan retreated from the giant's avatar and kept it in his Cauldron Ring without looking at the lion hair's storage pouch. He then consumed a pill to suppress his injuries and began to chase after the small demons!
"Fellow Daoist Yun, Fellow Daoist Jie, quickly help the juniors eliminate the demons and reduce the casualties!"
"Mm!"
"Alright!"
Jie Xiu's admiration for Ning Fan had reached its peak. The timing of the Spirit Severing Realm attack and the terrifying sharpness of the giant's finger had shocked him greatly. This young man could kill a Mid Nascent Soul Realm expert. He was more than qualified to be the seventh commander!
As for Yun Ruowei, her heart trembled again and again!
Even though she knew that he was a Half-Step Gold Core Realm expert who was comparable to a Nascent Soul Realm expert and a Fourth Revolution Pill Refinement Realm expert, she still couldn't believe that the four Nascent Soul Realm experts were all killed by him alone! This kind of crazy massacre made Yun Ruowei feel a trace of fear.
As for the devil in her heart, it was even deeper … It was so deep that she had no choice but to have a long talk with Ning Fan …
However, what she couldn't understand was why Ning Fan would sacrifice his Spirit Severing Realm attack to kill the lion hair with his instantaneous movement to avoid the Spirit Severing Realm attack?
She couldn't understand why Ning Fan would sacrifice his Spirit Severing Realm attack to kill the lion hair without saying anything.
He might be able to retreat by combining the strength of the other two Nascent Soul Realm experts and block the Spirit Severing Realm attack together. However, if he did that, he would probably let the lion hair escape … Even if he had to use up one of his trump cards, he had to keep the lion hair's life. The reason was naturally the storage pouch …
He did not see what was inside the pouch but there was a trace of Immemorial Star's qi in the pouch which caused the Yin Yang Locket and the Separation Slayer Sword to tremble. There's no mistaking it!
The Immemorial Star … Moreover, there seemed to be quite a number of them …
This item was far more precious than a Spirit Severing Realm attack. It was not worth it to let the lion hair escape and miss this item.
After obtaining the storage pouch, even though he did not look at the items inside, he could vaguely feel that there was something inside that made his demon blood boil!
It seemed to be a supreme treasure that could increase his demon power …
He did not tell anyone that these were his spoils of war. Not even the Rain Palace could take them away!
As for the remaining small demons, they would all turn into battle merits and be stored in his Merit Jade!
A few hours later, the battle ended!
Other than the ruins that were destroyed by Ning Fan's Mountain Shattering Finger, there were only countless demon corpses and occasionally human corpses.
The battle merits in the Merit Jade had already exceeded seven hundred thousand … 70% of the battle merits of the small demons and three Nascent Soul Realm experts were taken by Ning Fan alone …
Each of the Gold Core Realm and Harmonious Spirit Realm experts who survived were filled with joy. Even Jie Xiu felt happy for the victory.
However, Yun Ruowei had mixed feelings. As a demon, she had to slay demons. Although she did not say it out loud, her heart was filled with helplessness.
As for Ning Fan, he stood among the countless corpses in silence.
"Have a safe journey."
As soon as he finished speaking, he got on the Jin Shuttle.
His words made Yun Ruowei's eyes flash. She thought to herself, Ning Fan who is the most ruthless when he kills, would also feel sentimental after killing?
There was enmity between them when they were alive. But after death, this enmity would be resolved once and for all …
What an open-minded person …
