Wu Yan and Xi Ran kept all the ashes. Since the ashes had already turned into ashes, they naturally lost their medicinal effects. Other than being useful to Spirit Kings, they were useless to others.
Ning Fan naturally would not take away the ashes. What he wanted was the herb garden.
The spiritual soil here was enough to nurture a million years old emperor medicine! In Ning Fan's eyes, this spiritual soil was a priceless treasure!
"Light …"
"Stone … head …"
The female corpse pulled a corner of Ning Fan's hand and waved it with pleading eyes.
She wanted to beg Ning Fan to take this bluestone away because it contained the best memories of her previous life.
After her spiritual intelligence had increased slightly, she understood that she had to pay a price if she wanted to ask Ning Fan to do something for her.
After hesitating and considering repeatedly, the female corpse mustered up her courage and kissed Ning Fan's face gently.
"Stone … head …"
Feeling the cold kiss mark on his face, Ning Fan did not know whether to laugh or cry.
"Silly girl. Alright. I will take this stone and this herb garden with me. In the future, you can embroider colorful butterflies on this bluestone every day. How does that sound? "
"Mm … Mm …" The female corpse nodded her head repeatedly with a joyful expression like a five to six years old child.
At least her spiritual intelligence has increased to that of a five to six years old child, right?
"So this is' love '…" Yuan Yao pondered. Perhaps to the female corpse, she could die without regrets as long as she could find a man who would love and protect her.
Ning Fan patted his storage pouch and a trace of world power swept across the area. The ruined herb garden immediately disappeared and was kept into his Yuan Yao Jade.
He did not take out the Yuan Yao Jade directly to prevent Yuan Yao from noticing it.
However, Yuan Yao who had sharp eyesight still noticed the world power. She said with a surprised tone.
"World power? Is this a world treasure that can create a small chiliocosm? I didn't expect you to have such a treasure with your identity as a cultivator from the lower world. However, why do I feel that this world power is a little familiar … Is it an illusion? "
Yuan Yao looked at Ning Fan as if she was seeking confirmation. She always felt that the world power of the world treasure that Ning Fan possessed was somewhat similar to the Yuan Yao Jade that she made.
"Mm. It's just an illusion!"
Ning Fan revealed a harmless expression. He would not take out the Yuan Yao Jade in front of Yuan Yao.
He did not want to expose the grudge between him and Bei Xiaoman in front of her.
Yuan Yao would naturally not pursue the matter. After all, there were countless World Treasures in the world, so it wasn't strange for there to occasionally be treasures that possessed similar World Energy.
"Originally, I was going to give you my Origin Jade to help you keep this medicinal garden's spiritual soil. Since you have a World Treasure, there's no need for that …" Yuan Yao sighed softly.
"Is that so … your Yuan Yao Jade, it is better for you to leave a sweetheart."
Ning Fan casually answered.
Snatching Bei Xiaoman's Yuan Yao Jade was an accident, a spoil of war. But if he took the jade on Yuan Yao's finger, it would be a token of love.
The Yuan Yao Jade was a token of love from the four young ladies of the Lost World Palace. Ning Fan could tell that Yuan Yao was unwilling to have anything to do with him. Therefore, he would not take her token of love.
"Sweetheart … I don't have a sweetheart. I didn't have one in the past, and I won't be able to have one in the future …" Yuan Yao's eyes looked calm, but under the veil, she was biting her lips tightly.
It's not that I can't have it, but I can't …
This place was silent for a while. Two hours later, this silent atmosphere was broken by a returning moonlight.
As soon as that light descended, it turned into a little girl who looked around seven or eight years old. Her appearance was delicate and pretty but her eyes were filled with cold arrogance. She was none other than Yue Lingkong.
"Yue Er, you're back? How was it? Did you encounter any danger? Did you find out how many exits there are in this ancient forest? "
"Pooh! Stinky cucumber! Who are you to call me Yue Er?! "
Yue Lingkong retorted impatiently. However, after hearing Ning Fan's words of concern, her expression became a little gentler.
"What kind of danger can there be in this place? At most, there are some Wild Beasts. With my strength, I can easily beat them up in just two to three moves … As for the exits, according to my investigation, there are at least three other paths that can lead us out of this place other than the one we took to enter the forest … Of course, there are traces of battle in one of the three paths. It should be left behind by the three unlucky lightning generals when they were escaping. Which path should we take? "
Yue Lingkong passed a rough map of the ancient forest to Ning Fan with one of her hands. Her other hand was holding a dark blue pearl. It was this pearl that helped her not to be bewitched by the illusory formation.
The pearl emitted a dense dark light. It had the miraculous effect of breaking illusory formations. Its name was' Blue Spiritual Pearl '. It was originally a treasure that the Spirit King had given to Concubine Zi. Now, it belonged to Ning Fan and he temporarily gave it to Yue Lingkong for her use.
While Wu Yan, Xi Ran and the others were collecting the medicinal ashes, Yue Lingkong took the Blue Spiritual Pearl that Ning Fan gave her and went to explore the path in this place.
"Three paths? Which path should we take? If we want to snatch the key from that wolf demon, we should take the path of the lightning generals. "Yuan Yao said indifferently.
"Sister Bei Yao is right. Besides, the nine demon divisions are also going to take that path. If we work together, it's highly possible for us to seize the key!" Wu Yan added.
"Brother Lu Bei, no matter where you go, I will certainly follow you. However … you must protect me …" Xi Ran sounded a little unconfident.
When the ladies' words fell into Ning Fan's ears, he began to ponder.
The key to the Star Palace had already turned into a chess piece made of star power and was in his hands. There was no need for Ning Fan to get into a conflict with Tan Lang over the key at all.
The ladies did not know about this. Therefore, when they were considering the path, their focus was on the key. As for Ning Fan, his focus was … the center of the Star Palace where Lu Wu's remnant soul was sealed.
He took out the jade slip that Lu Daochen gave him and pressed it on his glabella. Then, he frowned.
Judging from the map, in order to reach the place where Lu Wu's remnant soul was sealed, they had no choice but to pass through Tan Lang's domain.
"Fine. It seems like I only have one choice …"
Ning Fan did not say anything else. He patted his storage pouch and took out the Golden Flame Chariot.
He pulled the ladies onto the chariot and changed his hand seals. The black dragon pulled the crystal chariot which was burning with golden flames. In just an instant, it turned into a golden line and disappeared into the dense forest.
…
Half a month later.
In the Heaven Palace, in a misty valley where silver snowflakes were falling, nine Divine Transformation Realm cultivators were wearing solemn expressions.
They seemed to have just escaped from being hunted down. Countless corpses of demon beasts were left on the path where they were fleeing.
The nine of them were standing in two different directions, glaring at each other with hostile gazes.
If there are demons from the Lu Clan here, they would certainly realize that these nine people were all Titled Demon Generals of the nine divisions!
The nine of them had just escaped from being hunted down. However, they seemed to be fighting over something and were divided into two sides.
The five people on the left side were led by Lu Jiefen. Each of them was staring at the four people opposite them with covetous eyes.
Among the four people opposite them, the leaders were the Lightning General of the second division and the Wind General of the third division. Behind them, the Earth General of the Lie Tu Tribe wore a distressed expression. Lu Daochen of the Luo Yun Tribe had a blood-stained white beard. His left eye was tightly shut and black blood flowed down from it. He was holding a faint golden illusory fruit in his hand.
"Lu Daochen! The nine of us fought our way out of the demon wolves' encirclement together but you are the only one who obtained the Blood Wolf Dao Fruit! Don't tell me you want to keep it all to yourself?! Hand over the Dao Fruit! "
Lu Jiefen's aura force spread out like fire. Within ten thousand li * (500m per li), all the silver snowflakes were ignited and melted!
"Humph! Lu Jiefen, aren't you being too shameless?! At that time, we were being chased by a pack of wolves. If it wasn't for Yun General who sacrificed himself and destroyed his Bestowment Demon Star, how could we escape from the encirclement so easily? He sacrificed his Bestowment Demon Star to kill one of the nine 'Blood Wolves' and snatched the Dao Fruit. Why should he give it to you?! "The Lightning General had the fiercest temper.
"What the Lightning General said is extremely true! Lu Jiefen, don't you go too far! This isn't your Pure Flame Tribe. If you go against us for a mere Dao Fruit, I'm afraid you won't be able to protect yourself either! "The Wind General threatened him with a deep voice.
The Earth General of the Eighth Tribe felt very awkward. At the critical moment when Ning Fan's prestige shocked the nine tribes, he had decisively befriended Luo Yun without sparing any financial and material resources in an attempt to forget their past grudges.
He did not dare to offend Lu Jiefen but he was even more afraid of offending Ning Fan … Thus, he naturally had to help Lu Daochen.
"Now that we're in a dangerous place, we should try to maintain harmony everywhere …" The Earth General said like a peacemaker.
"It seems like all of you are being stubborn! I won't waste my breath on you. If it's for this Dao Fruit, it's worth it even if I have to reveal my true strength! This Dao Fruit is at least equivalent to three Peak Divine Transformation Realm Dao Fruits. If I have this Dao Fruit … my chances of breaking through to the Void Refinement Realm can be increased by at least five percent! "
Lu Jiefen's eyes flashed with ruthlessness. He took a step forward and a trace of qi that was concealed deeply spread out from his body. In front of him, it turned into the shadow of a purple dragon that was condensed from purple flames.
Among the layers of purple flames, the shadow turned into a man in purple robes. His appearance was seventy to eighty percent similar to Lu Jiefen. However, his aura force was a few times stronger than Lu Jiefen's!
Lu Jiefen's cultivation base was at the Late Divine Transformation Realm while this purple robed shadow was at the Half-Step Void Refinement Realm!
"Half-Step Void Refinement Realm! Who are you?! "The Wind General and the Lightning General stared at the purple robed shadow and their expressions changed greatly.
"Who am I? Of course, I'm Lu Jiefen. However, I'm another Lu Jiefen … I'm the palace master of the Demon Sealing Palace in the Endless Sea! Alright, seeing that we still need to work together, as long as the four of you hand over the Blood Wolf Dao Fruit and allow me to plant a demon seal on you, I'll spare your lives! "
The purple robed shadow sneered.
Lu Daochen, on the other hand, pressed his chest to suppress his injuries. He carefully observed Lu Jiefen and the purple robed shadow and suddenly said.
"I understand now … Lu Jiefen, the one in purple robes is your true body. The one in red robes is your clone that you refined using the Corpse Melting Devouring Technique! You left your clone in the Nine Divisions but your true body somehow escaped from the Second World and became the palace master of the Demon Sealing Palace in the outside world … Is that right?! "
"Corpse Melting Devouring Technique!" All the demon sealing experts at the scene were astonished. The Corpse Melting Devouring Technique was a secret technique that refined one's clone by devouring the corpses of demon beasts. However, once this secret technique fails, it would lead to the death of the cultivator's true body.
Back then in the External Endless Sea, Ying He had used the Corpse Melting Devouring Technique to devour two demon corpses in order to fight against Ning Fan. After he succeeded by luck, he became one with three bodies which greatly improved his strength.
This technique was not rare in the ancient demon race. However, because of the high risk involved, only a few people would practice it.
With Lu Jiefen's identity, he actually risked his life to practice this technique and he even succeeded.
In the Second World, he was a Titled Demon General of the Pure Fire Tribe. In the outside world, he was the Demon Sealing Palace Master of the Seven Venerated Beings of the Internal Endless Sea!
Lu Jiefen was waiting for his clone that he had left in the Second World to break through to the Half-Step Void Refinement Realm. Then, his true body and clone would merge into one and break through to the Void Refinement Realm in one go!
"That's right. I've practiced the Corpse Melting Devouring Technique! Lu Daochen, I'll count to three. If you don't hand over the Blood Wolf Dao Fruit, I'm going to kill you! "
The purple-robed man's eyes swept across the surroundings. The aura force of a Half-Step Void Refinement Realm expert gave everyone a terrifying pressure.
"One!"
"Two!"
Lu Daochen and the others were filled with indignation and despair.
It seemed like they had no choice but to submit to Lu Jiefen, hand over the Dao Fruit and plant the demon seal. Otherwise, who would be able to fight against a Half-Step Void Refinement Realm expert?!
"There's no need to count! Lu Jiefen, I agree … "Lu Daochen sighed and took a step forward, preparing to hand over the Dao Fruit.
However, before he could finish his words, a clear voice accompanied by a golden line flew across countless layers of the sea of snow. It suddenly turned into a golden flame chariot and appeared in the sky above the maze!
"With me here, who dares to touch the people of the Luo Yun Sect?!"
As soon as the voice was heard, two black shadows flashed down from the golden flame chariot. Both of them were at the Half-Step Void Refinement Realm!
No one, including Lu Daochen, could see what those black shadows were. Only the purple-robed man could see them clearly. However, after seeing them clearly, he felt even more incredulous.
"This is absolutely impossible!"
* Boom *
As the purple-robed man exclaimed in surprise, the two black shadows, one with a claw and the other with a fist, attacked the purple-robed man mercilessly.
The purple-robed man tried his best to defend himself. However, it was too disadvantageous for him to fight against the two of them at the same time. He was sent flying by the two black shadows in just a moment!
The force of the collision directly caused the maze within ten thousand li * (500m per li) to collapse!
As for the purple-robed man, he crawled up from the ruins and coughed out a mouthful of blood. He had actually suffered quite serious injuries!
"A Half-Step Void Refinement Realm black dragon refined corpse and … a Half-Step Void Refinement Realm spiritual puppet!"
The purple-robed man looked in front of him in disbelief.
The two black shadows that attacked him revealed themselves. They were none other than a dragon and a puppet!
