One day, ten days, one hundred days …
In the world of his mind, Ning Fan sat alone for one hundred days and had already devoured fifty thousand crystals.
The world of his mind was filled with darkness. Only his body was emitting a faint black starlight.
"It's about time …"
Ning Fan slowly rose to his feet and muttered to himself. The devil qi around his body had already reached 83470 units.
With such dense devil qi, his cultivation base had broken through to the Mid Divine Transformation Realm in terms of devil cultivation base alone.
The combined power of all the gods, demons and devils in his body had already exceeded one hundred and fifty thousand units. In other words, even if his cultivation base had yet to break through to the Late Divine Transformation Realm, the density of his magic power had already reached the standard of a Late Divine Transformation Realm expert.
If he uses the Soul Extracting Technique now, it would probably be enough for him to reach the Peak Divine Transformation Realm with the help of the secret technique.
Not only did his devil qi increase, but his physical body had also improved to the Third Level of the Jade Life Realm.
In the first place, he was already a corpse devil body which unlocked the limits of the human body's power and defense.
After going through the refinement of the starlight, the strength of his physical body had greatly increased.
The body of a cultivator at the Third Level of the Jade Life Realm was on par with other cultivators at the Fourth Level of the Jade Life Realm!
With just the strength of his physical body, he could fight against a Peak Divine Transformation Realm expert!
These were just the improvements in his cultivation base. What delighted Ning Fan the most was another benefit.
His long hair fluttered in the wind. Suddenly, he raised his head and pointed at the sky.
In his right eye, the second black star had completely condensed. It was called the Star of Body Refinement! Its effect was to use the power of the stars to heal and cure injuries!
As he pointed at the sky, five pitch-black stars appeared one after another, sprinkling black starlight down.
Under the five rays of starlight, Ning Fan's injuries had already been healed.
The effect of a ray of starlight healing was equivalent to consuming a Fifth Revolution Pill.
The effect of five rays of starlight healing was almost equivalent to consuming five Fifth Revolution Pills!
"If I condense one million stars, even if my cultivation base is low, ordinary immortal emperors won't be able to kill me! This technique has great potential. If I cultivate it well, it will certainly become an indispensable trump card for me in the future! "
Ning Fan nodded. He was extremely satisfied with this Emperor Star inheritance.
The purpose of his trip to the Broken World and the Star Palace was to improve his strength. Today, the results were obvious.
Other than his magic power which was still weak and he had yet to attain the Divine Transformation Realm, his demon power and devil qi had been cultivated to an extremely high level.
Even if the current Ning Fan returns to the External Endless Sea and enters the Internal Endless Sea, he would still be able to move unhindered without being afraid of the Demon Sealing Sect.
Moreover, if the master of the Demon Sealing Sect, Lu Jiefen, encounters Ning Fan, he would need to avoid him!
"That day when I entered the Endless Sea, in order to save Suqiu, I provoked the Demon Sealing Palace. Now, the Demon Sealing Sect is no longer a threat … "
Ning Fan's tone was calm. He had really become stronger. Even if he returns to Yue Country, he would be able to take over a territory and proclaim himself as the old ancestor of the country. He would be invincible below the Void Refinement Realm!
"Perhaps, after returning to the Outer Endless Sea this time, I can settle some karma and enter the Inner Endless Sea again to help Yue 'er reclaim the Divine Space Island. After that, I can go home … Go home. I've been away from home for too long …"
Ning Fan looked at the stars above his head and his eyes turned gentle.
Even though he was shouldering tremendous pressure and cultivating bitterly, compared to many people, he was already blessed.
He had a family, a wife, a master, a younger brother, and an ordinary but warm past.
"Perhaps, I still have my mother …" Ning Fan was a little expectant.
He killed mortals in the Cloud Sea and saw his mother in the illusion. He would never forget those scenes.
Perhaps his mother was still alive somewhere in the world.
Perhaps, there would still be a day for them to meet again.
"Speaking of which, I didn't have a father or a mother since I was young, and I've never experienced the warmth of a parent. To a cultivator, it's a pity to lack this level of understanding … Moreover, from the bottom of my heart, I also want to meet my mother."
Ning Fan put away his complicated thoughts. He knew that now was not the time to think about these things.
Returning to the Outer Endless Sea meant reuniting with some people. At the same time, it also meant parting ways with Yuan Yao, Xi Ran, Wu Yan and the other women.
From Ning Fan's point of view, he had already left an unforgettable memory of being together with them through thick and thin.
He had never said any flowery words to his women. All he did was to give them his sincerity in exchange for their sincerity.
Since he was reluctant to part with them, the three women would probably be reluctant too.
Moreover, before he left, he still needed to fulfill Lu Daochen's request and remove the Sin Seal for Lu Wu.
Once the Sin Seal is removed, Lu Wu would be free from the pain of being burned by the Sin Seal every day. He could then enter Samsara and begin his next life of reincarnation and cultivation.
"I'm leaving …"
It was as if he was talking to himself. However, the world in his mind immediately collapsed like an illusion.
In the cloud palace, Ning Fan who had been standing still for a hundred days opened his eyes. His aura force was at least twice as strong as before he received the Emperor Star's inheritance!
"You're awake? Good! Good! You've already grasped the Celestial Emperor Star Technique. Amazing! If you have the opportunity in the future, you might even have the chance to become the next Celestial Sovereign if you carry this technique forward! "
Lu Wu lowered his body and looked at Ning Fan with eyes full of praise.
"Senior, you must be joking." Ning Fan shook his head. He was a man who had his feet on the ground. Now that he was just at the Divine Transformation Realm, he was countless cultivation levels away from the Celestial Sovereign Realm. Thus, he would not indulge in idle fantasies.
"I've told you before that I have two objectives for coming here. One is to obtain the Emperor Star's inheritance and the other is to help you remove the Sin Seal. Now that I've obtained the Emperor Star, I can completely complete my mission if I remove the Sin Seal. "
"Sin Seal, huh? Hehe. I believe you can remove it! " Lu Wu's eyes were filled with anticipation. The Sin Seal had been planted on him for far too long. It would act up every night, making his body feel like it was burning and the pain was unbearable.
When he died, he could no longer be resurrected. Only his remnant soul was left.
As for this remnant soul, it was sealed by the Sin Seal and could not be reincarnated.
To cultivators, death was something they couldn't do anything about. It meant that they would lose all of their cultivation base and they would have to start all over again.
However, as long as their soul did not disperse and they still had the chance to enter Samsara, they would still be able to live another life.
To mortals, death was terrifying. To cultivators, however, what was scarier than death was having one's soul dispersed and being unable to reincarnate.
It was exactly because they valued Samsara so much that they were willing to give up on it that Ning Fan was shocked.
Just like that day when the old ancestor of the Hu Clan, Hu Fengzi, was willing to sacrifice his soul for the prosperity of his clan and condense a cultivation pill in exchange for Ning Fan's help to protect his clan.
The cultivation world was cold and selfish. However, at the same time, there was also warmth, righteousness and touching.
"Senior, please bear with the pain for a while. I will help you remove the Sin Seal now!"
Ning Fan tapped the tip of his feet and soared into the sky, landing on the back of the giant beast.
He crouched down and touched the blood-red Sin Seal on the back of the giant beast. Just by touching it, the Sin Seal released a terrifying heat that burnt his fingers.
The power of this Sin Seal was a little more terrifying than what Ning Fan had imagined.
Fortunately, this little injury was nothing to be afraid of at all. The tip of his finger was surrounded by black starlight. Just a little bit of starlight was enough to heal his burnt finger, making it as good as new.
The Black Star Healing Technique really lived up to its reputation. With this technique, Ning Fan was a divine doctor. It was as easy as flipping his hand to revive a person with white bones.
"The Sin Seal is the punishment that the large clans of the True Spirit Realm give to the demons who have sinned. Ever since the demon race lost their 'spirit', a large number of members of the True Spirit Clan no longer have the royal bloodline. Only a few members of the True Spirit Clan still have the royal bloodline. This Sin Seal can only be planted and removed by those with the royal bloodline. This means that once the Sin Seal is planted in you by the large clans of the True Spirit Clan, you must obey the orders of the clan. Otherwise, no one will remove the Sin Seal for you. Then, you will no longer have the chance to reincarnate and you will have to suffer for eternity … "
Lu Wu's eyes darkened. His tone was filled with anger. It was imaginable how humiliating it was for him to be forced by the True Spirit Clan to plant the Sin Seal in him.
"If you can't remove the Sin Seal, then forget it … This is just a small matter. I have been enduring this kind of pain for more than a hundred million years and I have already gotten used to it. However, I will not give in in the end! The moment I put on the Heavenly Marshal's Armor, I have already disregarded life and death! "
Lu Wu's eyes were filled with heroic spirit. Ning Fan had seen that kind of heroic spirit in the eyes of many demon generals of the Lu Clan before.
There were not many people like them in the cultivation world who would burn their blood and swear that they would not surrender even if they died. However, there were quite a number of them in the nine divisions of the Lu Clan.
It was the heroic spirit of raising one's arm and shouting 'As a general, there is no need to fear death'.
"Don't worry. I have promised Lu Daochen to save you. This mere Sin Seal is nothing to me. The person who planted this Sin Seal does not have a weak bloodline. He has almost condensed half a drop of ancestral blood. However, a mere half a drop of ancestral blood is too weak in my eyes! "
Ning Fan bit the tip of his tongue and spurted out a purplish-black blood mist. As soon as the blood mist landed on Lu Wu's back, the indelible blood-red Sin Seal began to tremble.
So what if it's a Sin Seal with half a drop of ancestral blood?
He has four drops of ancestral blood in his body! If the Fu Li Clan still exists, he will be the ancestor of the clan!
"Break!"
The purplish-black blood mist glowed with a dim light and formed a secret formation mark on Lu Wu's back. At the moment when the formation mark took shape, the purplish-black light around Lu Wu's body shone brightly. Within the light, the Sin Seal that was deeply rooted in Lu Wu's body was corroded and dissipated with a sizzling sound!
* Huff *
Lu Wu's body suddenly trembled and he exhaled a mouthful of murky qi. His eyes were filled with surprise.
The Sin Seal was broken!
He was free now. His remnant soul could re-enter Samsara!
Within the dim cloud palace, white light shot up to the sky all of a sudden. Those white lights were all shot out from Lu Wu's remnant soul.
In the dazzling white light, his soul seemed to have evaporated as if it had sensed the call of Samsara.
"Thank you! Thank you! I am going to re-enter Samsara! Thank you! "
Lu Wu's eyes were filled with surprise. After re-entering Samsara, this life would be over. In the next life, he would be reborn!
"It's a promise I made and a promise I will do. That's all. Senior, you don't have to thank me."
Ning Fan leaped down from the beast's body and stood on the ground. Looking at Lu Wu who was rising to the sky in the white light, his eyes were filled with gratification.
Everyone had their own happiness. To many people, death was terrifying. However, to Lu Wu, being able to re-enter Samsara after death was a kind of happiness.
Lu Wu's soul dissipated in the white light. Ning Fan suddenly felt inspired. He patted his storage pouch and took out two jars of mud-sealed wine. He held one jar for himself and tossed the other one to the sky. Then, he said loudly.
"Wouldn't it be a pity if I don't have wine to send you on a long journey?!"
Lu Wu whose body was enveloped by the white light was stunned. Then, he burst into laughter. He opened his mouth and swallowed the wine jar into his stomach.
Ning Fan had snatched this wine from an unlucky person. It was some kind of medicinal wine and it was not a good wine.
However, Lu Wu did not despise it at all. Looking at Ning Fan, he felt as if he regretted not meeting his bosom friend earlier.
"Well said! What a good way to send you on a long journey! Everyone is afraid of death and Samsara. However, you compared death to a long journey! I can't be compared to your heroic spirit. I will drink this wine. If we are fated to meet again in my next life, I will definitely sit on a high and dangerous building and drink a pot of real good wine with you! "
"Alright! If we are fated, I will definitely drink with you in my next life! "
Ning Fan's understanding of Samsara became deeper and deeper.
That's right. Just like what he said before, Samsara is just a long journey. It was a process of walking from life to death and then from death to life. However, it seemed like there was more to it than that.
The white light gradually dimmed. Lu Wu's figure gradually disappeared and his laughter gradually disappeared. He went to be reincarnated …
In his next life, he might be a farmer, a mortal martial expert or a scholar. There probably wouldn't be many chances for him to cultivate the Dao.
The Cloud Palace turned dark again. Only Ning Fan was left standing in silence for a long time.
He seemed to be recalling his feelings when he erected a grave for the old ancestor of Wei Country. Sending him to his death …
After a long time, he patted his storage pouch and took out a Wordless Heavenly Book.
This book was exchanged with the contribution points of the Sinister Sparrow Sect. There were no words on the book but there was only the words' sending him to his death 'on the cover.
In the past, he did not know who wrote this book. Now, he understood that it was the handwriting of Immortal Sovereign Zi Dou.
"Immortal Sovereign Zi Dou once sent a friend to his death …"
"Sending him to his death … Today, I send him to his death. In the next life, he will send me off. Is this Samsara …?"
Ning Fan's comprehension increased. All of a sudden, a faint purple light rose from the Wordless Heavenly Book. The pages of the book moved without any wind.
When the breeze blew open the first page of the book, the originally blank white paper slowly revealed twenty-four arrogant words written in ink.
The death of an immortal is like the extinguishing of a lamp.
The death of an immortal is like the scattering of his thoughts.
This is Samsara!
Ning Fan's expression changed.
It turned out that this Wordless Heavenly Book was not without words.
The words on it were just erased by the power of Samsara! (To be continued.)
