He was still waiting. He waited for three days but Ning Fan was still nowhere to be seen.
Lu Daochen's eyes finally showed a hint of worry. Based on his understanding of Ning Fan, he wouldn't be late since he said he would come.
However, he had waited for three more days and Ning Fan was still nowhere to be seen. He was afraid that he was held back by something.
"Could it be that he reached the bottleneck right before the battle and officially broke through to the Divine Transformation Realm?"
Lu Daochen smiled bitterly. This was definitely a possibility.
Without the appearance of the heavenly tribulation, he naturally didn't know that Ning Fan had successfully broken through to the Divine Transformation Realm. However, he guessed that something must have happened since Ning Fan couldn't participate in the first round of selection.
Imperial Concubine Zi and Qu Shun became impatient.
They had given Lu Daochen enough face by waiting for three more days. Since Lu Bei didn't show up, there was no point in waiting any longer.
"Lu Daochen, if you don't start the battle now, it will be canceled. I'm going to use force to sweep through the Luo Yun Sect and seize the map!" Imperial Concubine Zi's eyes darkened and her tone was threatening.
"That's right! A mere Nascent Soul Realm ant is wasting too much time … "Qu Shun's tone was cold.
The words of the two Peak Divine Transformation Realm experts in the Luo Yun Sect were immediately echoed by many experts on the scene.
Lu Daochen gritted his teeth. The situation was pressing. The wisest decision was to immediately announce the start of the first round to ease the tension between the parties.
However, if Ning Fan doesn't participate, that person would definitely lose his spot. His years of waiting would be in vain. What's the point of doing all this …
Lu Daochen did not give in!
For a moment, the cloud platform was filled with the atmosphere of war.
At this critical moment, a cold voice resounded.
"I have a compromise. I wonder if everyone is willing to listen to it!"
The voice of the person who spoke was not loud. However, the moment his voice resounded, the sea of consciousness of all the cultivators below the Mid Divine Transformation Realm trembled. Their ears buzzed and the sound lingered for a long time.
Countless demon cultivators' expressions changed and they all looked at the person who spoke. How could an ordinary person have such means?!
That direction was where the seats of the Pure Fire Division were located.
A silver-robed, white-haired demon general stood proudly. His Late Divine Transformation Realm aura surged around him.
"I am the demon general of the Ice Owl Clan – Wang Xiao! I have a suggestion and I hope everyone will listen to it! "
His words were decisive, not giving anyone the chance to refute him at all. However, with his status, he had the qualifications to say these words!
"What? This person is the leader of the Ten Generals that descended from the Higher Realm this time … from the True Spirit Realm's Ice Owl Clan, General Wang Xiao! "
"What does he suggest?"
The sounds of discussion rose, but after Lu Daochen coughed, it slowly quieted down.
Lu Daochen frowned as he looked at Wang Xiao, wondering what kind of tricks this person was playing.
"I wonder if General Wang has any suggestions?"
"Haha, I have seen all of your arguments. The crux of the dispute is merely Lu Bei … It's understandable that Yun Jiang wants Lu Bei to participate in the arena battle. However, it's impossible for us, a hundred thousand demon race members, to continue waiting bitterly for a mere Nascent Soul Realm cultivator like Lu Bei … Therefore, I have a suggestion that I hope Yun Jiang will listen to! "
Wang Xiao's tone was overbearing, causing Lu Daochen to frown.
"What suggestion?"
"Lu Bei himself can't come, but he can let his wife and children fight on his behalf … The demon ancestor has taught us that if this demon breaks the law, his wife and children can make up for it. Similarly, since this Lu Bei can't come, he can let his relatives participate in the competition on his behalf. When he himself arrives, they can replace his relatives to fight on his behalf. In this way, we won't have to wait bitterly!"
Wang Xiao's words made many demons secretly nod their heads. There was indeed such a tradition in the demon race.
For a moment, voices of agreement could be heard.
"What General Wang said is right! We have already given Luo Yun enough face by waiting for Lu Bei here for three days. Since Lu Bei can't come, let his relatives fight on his behalf! "
"Hurry up and start the first round of the selection. Don't waste any more time! Who is Lu Bei's relative? Step forward now. Otherwise, Lu Bei's qualification to participate in the competition will be taken away! "
Many demons from the Luo Yun Clan also agreed with Wang Xiao's suggestion.
However, no one stepped forward to participate in the competition on Ning Fan's behalf.
Only a few demons who knew about the decline of Lu Bei's clan knew that Lu Bei did not have any wife or children …
Lu Daochen's brows were tightly knitted together. Wang Xiao's sudden suggestion seemed to be trying to mediate the conflict between the two parties. However, it seemed like he was secretly plotting something …
However, Lu Daochen did not have the time to think through Wang Xiao's intentions at all. Because after the suggestion was made, even Imperial Concubine Zi agreed with it.
Qu Shun was the only one who gave Wang Xiao a deep look. There was no joy or anger in his eyes. There was only disdain.
"This Wang Xiao has an impetuous mental state. It's difficult for him to become an expert … My status is not as good as his. However, when I ascend to the Heavenly Demon World in the future, I will be qualified to compete with the elites of the Upper World. However, those elites will not include people like Wang Xiao …"
Qu Shun had the pride of being undefeatable in a thousand battles!
He was the son of the Demon Sovereign of the Lower World. Along the way, he had continuously challenged experts. He stepped on skeletons and climbed towards a higher goal.
He was arrogant, powerful and condescending. He looked down on Wang Xiao and Lu Bei. Even in this place of slumber, there was not a single person who could make him look sideways!
"Your Highness, this Wang Xiao seems to be a little restless. I wonder what his suggestion is. Should we reject him …" A Divine Transformation Realm servant of the Demon World transmitted his voice to his Highness.
"No need! No matter what Wang Xiao's purpose is or who he wants to target, there is nothing to worry about … Besides, this suggestion is indeed not bad. Let Lu Bei's relative fight on his behalf. It will save us a lot of time! "
"But I heard that Lu Bei doesn't have any relatives …"
"He doesn't have any relatives. What does it have to do with me?!"
Qu Shun suddenly stood up and released his aura. It was as if he was going to snatch the World Map by force if they did not start the selection.
This was a threat. He was forcing Lu Daochen to submit!
Lu Daochen heaved a long sigh.
Although Wang Xiao's suggestion was good, Lu Bei didn't have any relatives to fight on his behalf …
"Teacher, don't worry. Lu Bei has a wife …"
Lu Wan 'er, who was dressed in purple, walked towards Lu Daochen gracefully. A fragrant wind blew.
"Uh. Are you talking about the two Gold Core Realm demon maids that he left in the General's Mansion? Let them fight on his behalf? " Lu Daochen shook his head helplessly. The Wind Lady and the Tea Lady were not strong enough. It was useless for them to go.
"No. Their cultivation is not strong enough. I, Lu Wan 'er, am strong enough … I am Lu Bei's wife!"
Lu Wan 'er smiled and stepped on the sky. A pair of charming Purple Flame Phoenix Wings appeared on her back.
Lotus flowers bloomed with every step she took. A fragrant wind blew and purple flames burned.
Her appearance was alluring to begin with, but after activating the Phoenix Wings Spiritual Outfit, she had an otherworldly temperament, causing the hearts of the Beast Cultivators who saw her appearance to thump.
What a beautiful woman! She was like a phoenix immortal who had fallen to the mortal world!
She was obviously noble, but she also had the deep affection of a fox immortal!
It was a kind of contradictory beauty. Her face was young and tender, but she had the temperament of a ripe peach. She was as cold as ice, but there was a flame of passion hidden in her heart. She looked down on all men, but there was always a figure hidden in her heart …
"Lu Bei has a wife. I, Lu Wan 'er, am his wife. I am willing to represent him in the first round of the selection!"
The aura of a Late Nascent Soul Realm expert slowly spread out. The phoenix wings of a Peak Earth Profound Realm expert made countless experts' eyes burn with passion. Even Qu Shun and Imperial Concubine Zi were stunned!
It was difficult for them to obtain such high quality spiritual equipment. With the phoenix wings on this woman's body, not even a Spirit Severing Realm expert could hurt her …
Only the Earth General of the Lie Tu Tribe's eyes were filled with anger.
With just a glance, he could tell that the phoenix wings belonged to his subordinate, Xu Ri … Xu Ri was killed by Lu Bei and the wings were given to his beloved wife to use as spiritual equipment … Hehe, what a romantic Lu Bei … He, he, deserves to die!
Lu Wan 'er did not know that she had attracted the attention and admiration of many men at this moment. She also did not know how many people were drooling over her Phoenix Wings Spiritual Armor and her body. She also did not know if there were people who hated her in the dark and wanted to plot against her …
Lu Wan 'er also did not know that when she said' I am Lu Bei's wife ', countless men were envious of Ning Fan's luck with women.
With such a wife, what else can a man ask for?!
She did not care about it. She felt a little shy. After all, it was her first time admitting that she was Lu Bei's wife in front of one hundred thousand demon cultivators …
The women of the demon race were always bold. However, Lu Wan 'er seemed to be too bold.
Lu Sheng shook his head with a smile. Since his sister was so deeply in love with Lu Bei, he certainly would not stop her. The only thing he was worried about was whether Lu Wan 'er would be in danger if she represented Ning Fan in the selection.
There were only fifty-five slots for Nascent Soul Realm cultivators to compete for. However, there were many Peak Nascent Soul Realm cultivators present …
With the Phoenix Wings Spiritual Armor which was at the Peak Profound Earth Realm, Lu Wan 'er's speed was comparable to a Divine Transformation Realm cultivator. Thus, her life would not be in any danger. However, she was still a Late Nascent Soul Realm cultivator. Her speed did not mean that her attacks were strong. It was still unknown whether she could seize the clouds and enter the Spirit Ascension Platform from a Peak Nascent Soul Realm cultivator …
However, Lu Daochen felt relieved.
When his gaze fell upon the phoenix wings, his face immediately revealed a gratified, regretful and ashamed expression.
"What a good pair of phoenix wings. These phoenix wings actually have the ability to attack, defend and escape in one. Even I can't refine such a pair of phoenix wings … With this pair of wings, Wan 'er can even slightly resist a Divine Transformation Realm cultivator and protect herself … With the help of the other seven Divine Transformation Realm cultivators of my Luo Yun Sect, it won't be difficult for Wan' er's spiritual platform to advance to the Purple Rank …"
Lu Daochen secretly gave an order to the seven Luo Yun Demon Generals, agreeing to Lu Wan 'er's words and actions.
With this pair of wings, she could compete for the slots!
In this way, even though Ning Fan was late, his slot was preserved.
At the center of the venue, 25600 White Rank Spiritual Platforms were floating in the sky like floating clouds.
Each of the demon cultivators was eager to have a go. The first round of selection was finally going to begin!
As soon as Lu Daochen gives the order to begin, all the demon cultivators would move to the center of the venue at their fastest speed and choose a White Rank Spiritual Platform to get on.
After the first round begins, only the 25600 demon cultivators with the fastest speed would be able to snatch a White Rank Spiritual Platform. The rest of them would be eliminated!
"Begin!"
Lu Daochen's voice echoed across ten thousand li * (500m per li)! At the same time, he turned into a wisp of green smoke and flew towards the sky of the venue.
At this moment, one hundred thousand rays of light rushed towards the center of the venue. The Divine Transformation Realm cultivators teleported ten thousand li * (500m per li) in just a split second. Each of them occupied a direction and set foot on a spiritual platform.
Among the 145 Divine Transformation Realm rays of light, Lu Wan 'er turned into a wisp of purple smoke. She was not any weaker than the others and also managed to snatch a White Rank Spiritual Platform.
Inwardly, she was delighted. As long as she has the phoenix wings, she would certainly be able to help Ning Fan keep his slot.
However, there was one thing that she did not tell anyone … This Phoenix Wings Spiritual Equipment was indeed powerful. It could be said to be the pinnacle of Lu Wan 'er's work in life. However, it was precisely because of how powerful it was that she could not completely refine this pair of wings by herself …
She had been waiting for Ning Fan to help her refine this pair of wings. However, before Ning Fan came out from his seclusion, she had no choice but to use this pair of wings to help Ning Fan keep his slot.
She felt a sharp pain in her heart and her face turned pale. No one knew how painful it was to forcefully activate the phoenix wings …
She did not care about it. Her current identity was Ning Fan's wife. She did not know how much pain Ning Fan had suffered along the way. However, she knew that if she could not bear the pain, she would not be worthy to be Ning Fan's woman …
One breath, two breaths … Ten breaths passed. Each of the 25600 spiritual platforms was occupied by a demon cultivator.
Among them, there were 145 Divine Transformation Realm cultivators, 1900 Peak Nascent Soul Realm cultivators and the rest were all Late Nascent Soul Realm cultivators!
After all the spiritual platforms were occupied, a light screen that stretched for five thousand li * (500m per li) rose from the center of the venue, enveloping the entire venue.
At the moment when the formation light rose, all the demon cultivators who did not have a spiritual platform were teleported out of the venue.
One after another, the demon cultivators were teleported out of the venue with their faces covered in dirt. They were speechless when they saw the formation light.
There were even some who were unwilling to accept the fact that their spiritual platforms were seized by someone else due to a moment of carelessness. They wanted to break the formation light and rush into the venue to seize their platforms again. However, every single attack that landed on the formation light was easily blocked.
No Nascent Soul Realm attack could shake the formation light. Even a Late Spirit Severing Realm attack could not completely destroy the formation light.
"A Mortal Void Grade formation! This Lu Daochen has actually set up such a terrifying formation on the cloud platform! "
For the first time, Qu Shun's expression changed. He began to take Lu Daochen seriously. This person's cultivation base was not worth mentioning, but his Dao of Formation Technique was far beyond his imagination.
Rumor has it that this person is extremely knowledgeable in formations, pill refinement, divination, spirit augmentation, weapon refinement and many other aspects. Today, Qu Shun realized that it was indeed true. No wonder the Spirit King Palace took a fancy to this person … I've underestimated him before.
When the formation light rose, it was another signal … The battle for the spiritual platforms has begun!
Next, the 25600 cultivators would have to fight each other in a chaotic battle. In the end, only 200 of them would be able to obtain a Purple Grade Spiritual Platform!
Almost at the same time when the formation light rose, each of the demon cultivators stepped on the floating platform and launched their attacks at their opponents!
Outside the cloud platform, a white-robed silhouette appeared with a flash of light smoke. It did not alarm anyone.
Looking at the chaotic battle at the center of the cloud platform, he smiled bitterly.
"I didn't expect that after comprehending the Parting Sun Spear, I would unexpectedly activate the True Yang energy, causing half of my Yin Fusion Divine Star to gradually reach perfection. That's why I couldn't make it to the first round of the assessment. Now, it seems like Wan Er is taking my place …"
The corner of the young man's mouth curved into a smile. His heart felt warm. Lu Wan Er was really good to him.
After witnessing Lu Wan Er's tyrannical means, he felt slightly relieved.
That Fire Phoenix Spiritual Equipment was not as simple as flying. It was a combination of attack, defense and escape. Its speed was so fast that it could activate the fire barrier to defend itself and the sea of fire to attack its enemies.
Under that sea of fire, even a few Peak Nascent Soul Realm cultivators were defeated …
"I haven't seen you for eleven years. Wan Er's strength has improved."
Ning Fan smiled. However, his eyes suddenly turned solemn.
The wind blew. This wind made people feel uneasy …
In the wind, a silver-armored demon general peeked at Lu Wan Er.
That glance contained … killing intent! But at the next moment, his eyes were as calm as before.
"That person seems to be the demon general from the Upper World that Wang Xiao brought here … That killing intent … Was it an illusion …?" Ning Fan frowned. (To be continued.)
