In the second hall of the inner palace, there was a one hundred zhang * (3.33m per zhang) tall golden statue. It was the demon statue of a six-legged bronze beast!
Ning Fan's gaze swept across the statue and his eyes narrowed. This six-legged bronze beast flapped its golden feathers and looked down at the universe. Its gaze was very similar to the Demon Ancestor's shadow in the Eastern Sea Bell …
After reading the scriptures in the Scripture Tower, Ning Fan already knew that this six-legged demonic beast was the dharma image of the Immemorial Golden Crow!
However, ordinary members of the Golden Crow Clan would be considered as heaven-defying if they could cultivate three legs. If they could cultivate four legs, they would be considered as a royal Golden Crow. There was only one person with six legs in the entire world since ancient times!
Moreover, Ning Fan's demon blood trembled when he faced the demon statue.
After refining the golden light of the Heart Sutra, he faintly felt that there was an additional trace of golden color in his demon blood.
That golden color should be … the Demon Ancestor's Golden Sense! At this moment, it resonated with the demon statue!
"Immemorial Golden Crow, huh …"
Ning Fan's mind raced.
"By relying on the Demon Ancestor's Golden Sense, I can get rid of the body of a winged demon and achieve the body of a Golden Crow. However, even though I will definitely succeed with this trick, I can only awaken a trace of my blood with my remnant sense at most. After the third awakening, my trace of blood will at most be at the level of an ordinary Golden Crow's demon blood. If that's the case, my demon innate potential will be like a carp. The True Spirit Blood sounds nice and it will make people envious in the Nine Worlds. However, in the Demon Spirit Land, the thin True Spirit Blood is just considered mediocre …"
Ning Fan frowned. The awakening of demon blood was a random factor but it was also affected by the individual's will.
Should I awaken the trace of blood safely or … give it my all?
Lu Zongyun who was the priest stood in front of the demon statue and began to smear the demon blood on his face. Then, he burned incense and prayed. However, his expression was still full of worry.
He clenched his teeth and said, "Commander Lu, please don't treat the awakening of demon blood as a child's play … If it really fails, please prove that I didn't harm you …"
"Don't worry. No matter if it succeeds or fails, I won't slander you!"
Ning Fan nodded and did not say anything else. He then entered the third palace alone.
This palace was thousands of feet wide. The floor was made of dark gold metal, and there were complicated grooves that looked like formation patterns. They were filled with the blood of Golden Core demon beasts.
And at the very center of the formation runes, there was a pool of blood that was hundreds of feet wide. The energy of the green demonic blood was extremely dense.
"I'm going to awaken my demon bloodline in this lake? Whether or not I'm going to awaken my Golden Crow bloodline is still up for debate. After all, I have 200,000 battle credits, which means I can awaken my Winged Demon bloodline twice. Even if I fail the first time, it doesn't matter. Lu Zongyun is right. I need to be cautious when it comes to awakening my demon bloodline. My caution isn't about how to succeed on the first try, but rather … how to awaken my thin Winged Demon bloodline to its strongest state!"
Ning Fan took out the Military Merit Token and touched it with a hand seal.
Two hundred thousand battle merits instantly became one hundred thousand.
As his battle merits dwindled, the azure blood pool seemed to boil, emitting steam and a fishy smell as it bubbled.
At this moment, it was Ning Fan's chance to enter the pond!
"Wait!"
Just as Ning Fan was about to enter the pool, a feminine voice resounded beside him.
A lady in purple robes walked into the Third Palace and smiled shyly at Ning Fan.
"Big Brother said to let Wan 'er help the commander change his clothes and guard this place to prevent Lu Zongyun from doing anything … As for this Fifth Revolution Pill, it's called the Blood Awakening Pill. It was given to me by a Titled Demon General. There were originally two of them. One was for Big Brother to consume to awaken his demon bloodline while the other was for Wan' er's third awakening.
Ning Fan was slightly stunned and looked at Lu Wan 'er deeply.
If this lady helps me change my clothes, doesn't that mean that her chastity will be buried in my hands …
Is this really Lu Sheng's idea or is this lady's personal decision …
Ning Fan asked while looking at the golden pill in his palm which was filled with boundless energy.
"Is this pill the Demon General's idea or yours …?"
"Yes … It's Big Brother's … idea … You don't have to feel uneasy …" Lu Wan 'er's face blushed a little unnaturally.
Ning Fan sighed.
A Fifth Revolution Pill was useful for a Spirit Severing Realm Demon General who was undergoing his third awakening. With Lu Sheng's personality, it was impossible for him to disregard his sister and snatch her pill to please Ning Fan.
Currently, Lu Sheng was indeed sincere in befriending Ning Fan. However, he was befriending Ning Fan as an equal instead of lowering his status.
It was not Lu Sheng's style to harm his own family and benefit his estrangement!
With Ning Fan's eyesight, he could naturally tell that Lu Wan 'er was lying.
This lady came here on her own accord to protect him and give him the pill. It was because this lady had fallen in love with him.
However, this lady seemed to know that Ning Fan's ambition was not in the Northern Desert City and it was impossible for him to stay here for her. Thus, she did not reveal her feelings.
"It's hard to repay a debt of love …"
Ning Fan sighed softly in his heart and turned to Lu Wan 'er with a smile.
"I've long heard that the women of the demon race are bold to love and hate. They are bold and straightforward like a white fox falling in love with a scholar. There are too many such stories to mention … Today, Miss Wan 'er gave me such a precious pill behind my Big Brother's back. Could it be that you want me to be the scholar and have a good night with you, the white fox?"
Lu Wan 'er had the White Fox Demon Bloodline!
After hearing Ning Fan's teasing words, Lu Wan 'er's cheeks turned even redder. She rolled her eyes at Ning Fan.
"It's good that you know it in your heart. Why do you have to say it out loud?! Besides, you're a devil lord who kills people like scything flax. Who would want to 'fall in love' with you?! You can take this pill as my apology to you. During these years, every time you tried to woo me, I always chased you away with cold words. I'm sure you must have suffered some grievances because of your pride and self-esteem … "
Ning Fan stopped smiling and sighed softly.
So that's how it is.
This lady did not fall in love with me for no reason. She had the shadow of the main character, Lu Bei, whom she had been in contact with for many years. Her impression of Lu Bei was extremely deep but it was all bad.
When he replaced Lu Bei and came to the Northern Desert, his temperament had changed. The bad impression that this lady had of him turned into a favorable impression.
If Ning Fan is really Lu Bei, Lu Wan 'er's feelings would turn from hatred to love with guilt.
Unfortunately, Ning Fan was not Lu Bei.
"You've fallen in love with the wrong person …"
"That's right …" Lu Wan 'er let out a faint sigh. She had misunderstood Ning Fan's meaning. She thought that Ning Fan was saying that the two of them were not like-minded and it was impossible for them to be together.
"However, this pill is very precious. I owe you a favor. If there's a need in the future, I will certainly help you once …"
"Is that so …" Lu Wan 'er smiled gently and began to help Ning Fan change his clothes.
Her jade-like hands groped Ning Fan's body and unbuttoned his clothes one by one. It was her first time helping a man take off his clothes.
A lady of the demon race helping a man to change his clothes was no different from pledging to marry him.
Ning Fan dived into the blood pool naked. He only brought his storage pouch with him.
Beside the blood pool, Lu Wan 'er's cheeks were flushed. She did not expect that such a ferocious killer would have such a thin and fair body.
He really looks like a scholar …
"A white fox who loves a scholar, huh …"
Lu Wan 'er was slightly fascinated.
"Lu Bei, I wish you a bright future … As for you, you don't need to remember me …"
In the blood pool, Ning Fan shot into the bottom of the pool like a water arrow.
A hundred zhang below, the green blood was immersed in the viscous liquid. He slowly opened his eyes, opened his mouth and swallowed a Mid Grade Fifth Revolution Pill, Blood Awakening Pill!
The demon blood in his body was boiling!
However, his heart was exceptionally calm because of the Blood Awakening Pill.
This pill was specially used for Demon Generals during their third awakening. It would be too wasteful to consume it during their second awakening.
Lu Wan 'er was reluctant to consume it since she had just undergone her second awakening. However, she did not think that it would be a waste for Ning Fan to consume it.
She heard from her brother that after Ning Fan awakens his blood, he would recommend him to go to the Luo Yun Province to take part in the Demon General assessment. If he succeeds, he might even have a chance to attain the Divine Transformation Realm. At that time, Ning Fan would become an existence that was second only to the leader of the Luo Yun Tribe. In the future, Ning Fan might even break out of the Luo Yun Tribe and settle the disputes among the nine tribes, ascending to the Demon Spirit Land …
Awakening her demon blood might be the last chance for her to meet him.
She decided to let Ning Fan consume the Blood Awakening Pill …
She decided to help Ning Fan, the winged demon, condense his proudest wings and fly to a higher place before he leaves the Northern Desert City.
The women of the demon race were the most infatuated and bold. Once they have set their eyes on someone, they would never turn back.
However, Lu Wan 'er would never know that Ning Fan was not Lu Bei.
In fact, he was not even a true member of the demon race …
"Thank you …"
Ning Fan muttered to himself. His eyes were gradually shrouded by the faint purple medicinal qi.
At this moment, his perception of his own bloodline had become more than ten thousand times sharper.
He could even sense the breath of the demon blood.
Moreover, Ning Fan could vaguely see that there were 17 green blood lines hidden deep within his demon blood.
That was the thin blood of the winged demon that he possessed!
Absorbing the power of his bloodline was actually to increase the number of green blood lines in his body to increase the density of his bloodline!
"Absorb!"
Before Lu Zongyun kowtowed to the demon statue, Ning Fan had already formed 17 green feathers in front of him with the help of his 17 traces of demon blood. The feathers then broke into pieces and turned into 17 green vortexes that began to devour the blood in the blood pool!
The process was like burning his bloodline. However, the pain of having one's blood burned was nothing to Ning Fan.
He was a monster who could endure the pain of engraving hundreds of devil marks!
Almost in an instant, the 18th green vortex was condensed!
Be it Lu Zongyun or Demon General Lu Sheng who was standing under the Wall of Demon Shadows, all of them were astonished!
What kind of person could absorb the demon blood into his body without borrowing the power of the Demon Ancestor's demon statue?!
The only way was to consume a Blood Awakening Pill. However, such a precious pill was only available to Titled Demon Generals. It was only given to Demon Generals. Ordinary Demon Soldiers would never have it!
"Is it Wan 'er …? She said that she was going to protect Lu Bei. I didn't expect that she would give the only Blood Awakening Pill to this person … What a silly girl. Why did she have to do this …?" Lu Sheng sighed. His younger sister had fallen in love with someone that she shouldn't have.
Lu Wan 'er's eyes lit up.
"Even ordinary demon generals can't condense the 18th green vortex in just a short period of time … Moreover, it was so painful to awaken the demon blood but you didn't even make a sound … I, Lu Wan 'er, really have a good eye … You are the most outstanding man that I have ever seen … Unfortunately, I am not worthy of you …"
In the second palace, Lu Zongyun did not dare to be careless anymore. He immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the Demon Ancestor's statue.
Ten kowtows, a hundred kowtows, a thousand kowtows. Traces of white-colored qi rose from Lu Zongyun's prayers and entered the hundred zhang * tall demon statue. The eyes of the demon statue shone with a faint golden light. Even though it was extremely faint, at this moment, the demon blood in the Bloodline Pool seemed to be intimidated and its absorption speed almost doubled!
Ning Fan's demon blood seemed to be burning but his eyes were filled with determination!
He bent his fingers and formed a circle. Then, like a vortex, he rapidly condensed the demon blood vortex!
19, 20 … 25!
When he reached the checkpoint of awakening his demon blood, Ning Fan's eyelids twitched. However, he did not stop and continued to condense the 26th bloodline vortex.
The ranking on the Wall of Demon Shadows kept changing!
Ning Fan's ranking had risen to the 8600th rank!
Lu Bei, Feather Demon Blood, 25th Dan!
When the number changed to 26th, Demon General Lu Sheng's eyes flashed.
"This young man's ambition is indeed not to awaken his demon blood through ordinary means. What he is pursuing is definitely the Hundred Dan Remnant Blood. There's no doubt about it!"
At this moment, Lu Zongyun groaned inwardly.
While he was kowtowing to the demon statue, he was surprised by Ning Fan's speed of condensing demon blood. It was too fast.
When Ning Fan's demon blood reached the 25th level, he heaved a sigh of relief. In this case, Ning Fan's bloodline awakening shouldn't fail …
However, when Ning Fan's bloodline continued to increase and reached the 26th level, Lu Zongyun's heart skipped a beat.
Is this young man trying to break through to the 60th level?!
Even though a hybrid demon was weaker than a True Spirit Realm cultivator, it was still an extremely strong demon species. If it was cultivated to the extreme, it would not be any weaker than a True Spirit Realm cultivator.
Just like the four fierce demon species in the ancient times: Hun Dun, Qiong Qi, Tao Tie. All of them had the body of a single demon. They condensed the demon blood of many different species to form a powerful demon body.
"This man's first bloodline awakening ended in failure after reaching the 9th level. This time, even though he managed to break through to the 25th level by luck, why didn't he learn from the good ones and insisted on breaking through to the 60th level? If he fails, the Demon General will definitely think that it's my fault … Forget it. I'm going to risk it all!"
Lu Zongyun stopped kowtowing. He patted his storage pouch and took out a jade bottle. Inside the bottle was a ball of milky white Qi. It was the power of the Joss Flame.
This was the power that he had secretly accumulated as a priest for a thousand years. In the past, he had used half of it to awaken his son's bloodline. Now, he was afraid that the remaining half would be used on Ning Fan.
"Alright, alright, alright! If you want to reach the 60th level, this old man will risk it all and help you! Who asked this old man to share both your glory and my loss! "
Lu Zongyun crushed the jade bottle. The white Qi went into the demon statue. Immediately, the speed of blood condensation in the Bloodline Pool increased by three times!
After condensing the 31st bloodline vortex, Ning Fan could clearly feel that the speed of blood condensation had slowed down.
The further he went, the harder it would be to condense the blood vortex. The 32nd blood vortex would probably take up a lot of time …
However, just as he was pondering, the blood pool suddenly became even more boiling. In just a moment, Ning Fan condensed the 32nd blood vortex!
"Oh? This Lu Zongyun seems to be working very hard. The speed of blood condensation in the Bloodline Pool has actually increased by so much … "
Putting away his thoughts, Ning Fan calmed himself down and concentrated on condensing the blood.
Just like that, he sat there for ten days!
33, 34 … 59!
When he broke through the 60th blood vortex, the Demon Shadow Stele shone with green light. His ranking had risen to the 147th rank!
In other words, in the Second Realm of the vast Second Realm, his bloodline alone was enough to rank him at the 147th rank!
Not only the Demon Shadow Stele of the Luo Yun Tribe shone with green light, the steles of the other eight demon clans and the demon cities also shone with green light!
Countless experts rushed to the Demon General's Eggs in their respective demon cities and saw the names rising rapidly on the Demon Shadow Stele!
"Lu Bei! It's Lu Bei! Isn't he a ferocious demon with a thirty million bounty on his head?! Rumor has it that he is a Mid Divine Transformation Realm cultivator. But why did he just awaken his demon blood for the second time? Strange! Strange! "
In the province of the Lie Tu Tribe, a burly man in silver armor stood under the Demon Shadow Stele and stared at the jade stele with gloomy eyes. Behind him, countless experts of the demon race did not even dare to breathe loudly …
This person was the Titled Earth General, Bai Wuzun!
"Humph! It turns out that this is Lu Bei. I've sent people to investigate him. Rumor has it that this person had failed to awaken his demon blood and is a trash among trash. I didn't believe this information at first. But now, it seems like there's a reason why he annihilated the Trap Peak Guards. Maybe he used some tricks that I don't know about and killed Xiong Rui … Humph! The thirty million bounty on his head is a little too much! "
In the province of the Luo Yun Tribe, an old man in beast armor stood under the Demon Shadow Stele while holding a walking stick with a dragon head. His eyes were squinted and filled with wisdom.
"Lu Bei … The eighth general that Lu Sheng recommended is indeed extraordinary … Sovereign Shadow, Demon Ancestor's aura … If this person's bloodline is over a hundred and condenses the Incomplete Ancient Blood, even if he hasn't reached the Divine Transformation Realm, I'll allow him to be the Luo Yun Tribe's Eighth Demon General!"
In the province of the Cleansing Fire Tribe, a middle-aged man wearing a red dragon robe stood under the Demon Shadow Stele while stroking his beard lightly.
Behind him, Wang Xiao and the other ten demon generals that came to the Demon World were also sitting leisurely and did not pay any attention to the Demon Shadow Stele.
"This person's demon blood is actually over sixty parts. I didn't expect him to hide his strength so deeply …" The red dragon middle-aged man's eyes turned cold.
However, his words immediately caused the ten demon generals, including Wang Xiao, to sneer coldly.
"It's just sixty parts. Unless this person's demon blood is over a hundred parts, it's not worth mentioning at all!"
It was true that Wang Xiao and the others had the pride of being favored by the heavens.
As the Elite Demon Race of the Heaven Realm, they were born with the Primordial Remnant Bloodline. During the Second Awakening, everyone could be considered to have the Primordial Demon Bloodline. After the Third Awakening, a few of them could even improve the quality of their Demon Blood, becoming an even stronger Primordial Demon Blood!
For example, Li Ban!
The experts of the Blood Carp Clan could condense a thin amount of Immemorial Lightning Dragon's blood with their own efforts.
It was natural for them to look down on Ning Fan.
"No. It's not what General Wang is thinking … This Lu Bei is a spy that our Cleansing Fire Tribe planted in the Luo Yun Continent. Every one of these spies would choose people with poor aptitudes and conduct. Even this Lu Bei has made me scoff at him because his aptitudes are too low … Last time, he failed to awaken his demon blood and was only at the Ninth Level. He was a joke. However, this time, he actually broke through to the Sixtieth Level … This person is a bit strange … It's as if he has become a different person …"
"Haha! General Fire is overthinking! It's more important for us to discuss the important matter. How are we going to plan the map of the World Passage of the other eight tribes, kill 'Evil Commander Lu Wu' and seize the 'Star of the Heavenly Emperor'? As for this Lu Bei, he's not worth mentioning at all! "
"Am I overthinking …?" The red dragon man frowned and said.
Among the ten people, only Li Ban looked at Lu Bei's name thoughtfully.
Unknowingly, Lu Bei's image appeared in his mind.
It was not the lowly person who welcomed them into the Second World. Instead, it was the image of another man …
"Zhou Ming … Humph! I don't know if this person died in the Immemorial Teleportation Formation. If he didn't, I'm more than happy to go to the Endless Sea and kill him after the mission is completed! Judging from the position where he entered the teleportation formation, he should have come to the Endless Sea … However, this Zhou Ming must have died in the void after the formation collapsed … "The corner of Li Ban's mouth curved into a cold smile.
If he knew that Ning Fan didn't die, how would he feel?
Northern Desert City, Demon Shadow Stele!
Lu Sheng looked at the jade stele with a frown.
He firmly believed that the Sixtieth Level was not Ning Fan's limit. This person would advance to a higher realm, the Immemorial Remnant Blood!
When the Sixtieth Level turned into the Sixty-First Level, Lu Sheng's gaze relaxed and he laughed.
"I didn't misjudge him! With this person, who can compete for the position of the eighth general in the prefecture?! "
In the Second Palace, Lu Zongyun's forehead was bleeding from kowtowing.
Ten days of kowtowing. It was ten days of non-stop kowtowing!
In order to show his sincerity, Lu Zongyun did not even use his demon power to protect his forehead. Even with his Grand Cultivator cultivation base, his forehead was bleeding from kowtowing for ten days.
However, when he saw that Ning Fan's demon blood had broken through to the Sixtieth Level, Lu Zongyun felt relieved.
In this way, this person's efforts were not in vain. He did not waste the Joss Flame Power that he had collected for a thousand years …
"This person has broken through to the Mixed Demon Seed. It's enough …"
He was about to stand up. However, before he could do so, his knees gave way and he knelt on the ground. Blood and Qi rushed to his heart and he spurted out a mouthful of blood.
“61！ 61！ Could it be that this person wants to break through to the Hundredth Level?! He's already a Mixed Demon Seed. Is he still not satisfied?! "
Lu Zongyun's heart was filled with the urge to curse. If he wasn't the priest of the Northern Desert, the face of the Northern Desert Demon City, he would really curse without caring about his identity.
This Lu Bei really doesn't know what's good for him! If it weren't for me, Lu Zongyun, using my thousand-year reserves and kowtowing with all my might, do you think you could break through to the 60th phase with your inferior aptitude of failing second sleep?! It wasn't easy for you to reach Phase 60, but you still don't know what's good for you and want to reach Phase 100? You want to obtain an Immemorial Monster Vein? Dream on!
This is infuriating! This is infuriating!
If Lu Bei fails, Demon General Lu Sheng will definitely take my life!
The heavens have taken pity on me. I didn't harm you, and I'm even doing my best to help you. Why can't you quit while you're ahead?!
"Fine, fine, fine! If you don't break through to the remnant ancient bloodline, I fear you won't stop. If you fail, then my entire family will be exterminated by the Demon General, and I won't be able to continue being a priest. This is something passed down from my Lu Family ancestor, the 'Life Blood Joss Flame'! Every generation's High Priest worships the Demon Ancestor for a thousand years and transforms their Life Blood into blood-red Joss Flames. This thing was originally used by this old man to break through to the Divine Transformation Realm … You're lucky now! You failed, and I didn't even get my life back. How the hell am I supposed to transform into a god?! "
Lu Zongyun pulled a long face and crushed the jade bottle. A stream of blood mist entered the golden statue of the Demon Ancestor.
At this moment, the golden statue of the Demon Ancestor was dyed with a faint blood glow. The speed of blood condensation in the Bloodline Pool increased by at least ten times!
"If you fail to break through to the remnant ancient bloodline, I will fight you to the death!"
Lu Zongyun's eyes were filled with bitterness, grievance, heartache, madness, and even indignation!
He felt that if Lu Bei's bloodline reached the 100th phase and he still didn't awaken his demon blood, he would definitely go crazy!
One must know when to quit while one is ahead! Didn't your father teach you that?! (To be continued.)
