Layers of vast memories entered Ning Fan's Sea of Consciousness.
Compared to Ancient Chaos' memories, the Inheritance Crystal didn't contain as much memories.
The memories of the Ancient Chaos included medicine, divination, astrology, and countless profound principles of cultivation. And within this crystal, only the Fiendish Cloud Rain Emperor's comprehension of Sovereign's Shadow and Sovereign's Qi were inherited.
Naturally, there were some secret arts of the Rain Palace.
The Bewitching Cloud Rain Emperor cultivated Sovereign Qi, and what he relied on was the Sovereign Rain Origin Art. As a result, the inheritance crystal had an extremely clear analysis of this art.
An hour later, the light from the crystal gradually dimmed.
He moved his palm away from the crystal and closed his eyes, digesting the memories and comprehensions in his Sea of Consciousness.
Not only was there the Demonic Cloud Rain Emperor's comprehension, there was also the comprehension of several generations of Rain Emperors.
The Demonic Clouds Rain Sovereign became famous seventy thousand years ago and Chu Chang 'an was also a Void Fragmentation Realm senior of that era.
Therefore, even though Chu Chang 'an was a member of the demon race and was not accepted by the Rain Palace, he was still an indispensable figure in the Rain Palace because of his illustrious identity.
After Yao Yun's death, there were two generations of Rain Sovereigns. None of them were titled Rain Sovereigns until Hong Yun broke through to the Sixth Heavenly Layer of the Void Fragmentation Realm and obtained another title.
Hong Yun was the last Rain Emperor who had received the inheritance and left behind his comprehension. This meant that there was a total of the comprehensions of four Rain Emperors in the crystal.
After Hongyun, it was another three generations before the current generation.
This generation's Rain Emperor had never obtained this kind of comprehension.
Ning Fan obtained it!
Not only did he gain enlightenment, but there was also an indescribable power in the crystal that helped Ning Fan break through all the bottlenecks of the first five layers of Primordial Art.
Half a day later, Ning Fan opened his eyes and digested all the inheritance of the cultivation method.
The comprehension of the sovereign qi of the four Divine Sovereigns was no trivial matter. After receiving their guidance, Ning Fan had nearly comprehended all the key points of the seven levels of the Sovereign Rain Primordial Art.
Since Ning Fan had already comprehended the cultivation method, he entered the Profound Yin World.
In the Profound Yin World, a day's worth of cultivation was a hundred times that of the outside world.
Three days was equivalent to three hundred days of bitter cultivation. With the insights of the four Divine Sovereigns and the breakthrough of the bottleneck of the first five levels of the cultivation method, Ning Fan had completely cultivated the Sovereign Rain Primordial Art to the fifth level.
Three days later, Ning Fan was expelled from the Profound Yin World.
As such, there were still five days left until they left the Blood Dragon Pool.
Ning Fan kept away all the immortal jades, Dao Crystals, jade slips and ancient books. Then, he stood beside the blood pool with a solemn expression.
By chance, he had entered the third level of the Blood Dragon Pool and opened the inheritance that three generations of Divine Emperors had failed to open.
If he couldn't use the blood pool to condense a strand of sovereign qi, how could he be satisfied?
Now that the Monarch Rain Origin Art had reached the fifth layer, he could condense enough Monarch Qi.
There was more dragon blood in the pool than there was when Yao Yun, Hong Yun, and the other Rain Emperors of the past four generations had condensed their Sovereign Qi, so there was naturally no shortage of dragon blood.
The insights of the four Divine Sovereigns could also prevent Ning Fan from making any mistakes while condensing the sovereign qi.
His luck was purple, and the situation of the heavens not protecting him would not occur.
The right time and the right place to condense the monarch qi were all perfect. All that was lacking was … the people!
If Ning Fan fails to condense the sovereign qi, the only possible reason would be that his cultivation base is too low!
Which of the past Rain Sovereigns who had condensed the sovereign qi was not at the Void Fragmentation Realm? How could a Divine Transformation Realm cultivator like Ning Fan enter the blood pool and condense his sovereign qi?
However, among all the past Rain Emperors, including Yao Yun, which one of them had managed to form an Emperor's Shadow when they were at the Deity Transformation Stage?
Ning Fan's cultivation base was too low. It was the biggest uncertainty in the condensation of sovereign qi.
Even so, he still wanted to give it a try.
If he succeeded in condensing the sovereign qi and broke through to the Void Fragmentation Realm in the future, he would certainly be invincible among those at the same level as him, unless he was a sovereign expert!
Since Moksha Sovereign was the Divine Sovereign of the Devil World, he must have the sovereign qi in his body …
In that case, how could Ning Fan be weaker than Moksha Sovereign?!
With a solemn expression, Ning Fan took a step into the blood pool and immersed himself in it.
The moment his skin came into contact with the dragon blood, it immediately burned and festered.
This was dragon blood! All the dragon blood added up to a few hundred million units of magic power!
As he immersed himself in the purest form of magic power, he felt as if his five internal organs were burning. As soon as his blood qi touched his body, his mind was immediately thrown into chaos and his eyes turned blood-red.
Without any hesitation, he circulated the Monarch Rain Origin Art. Relying on the Origin Art to protect his body, his mind gradually became clear.
After summoning the Sovereign's Shadow, Ning Fan's eyes shone like a deity and his aura was as powerful as the sun and the moon. He frantically formed hand seals at the bottom of the blood pool.
His body was too weak to withstand the might of the dragon blood.
However, his Emperor's Shadow did not hurt or die. It could be used as a vessel for a pool of dragon blood.
"Refine!"
Ning Fan's eyes were filled with madness. He was going to refine all the magic power of the hundreds of millions of units into his Emperor's Shadow.
Traces of dragon blood entered the shadow. Even though the Emperor's Shadow still did not have a face, it became more solid.
A golden vortex rose from the heart of the Emperor's Shadow. As soon as the vortex took shape, the vast amount of dragon blood was sucked into the shadow uncontrollably.
The faint golden Emperor's Shadow began to emit a layer of blood light.
In just two hours, all the dragon blood in the entire pool was absorbed by the Emperor's Shadow.
"The first step is a success!"
Ning Fan sat cross-legged at the bottom of the blood pool with a hint of joy in his eyes.
There were three steps to condense the sovereign qi.
The first step was to condense the Natal Sovereign's Shadow of the cultivator. Otherwise, the cultivator would not be qualified to condense the sovereign qi at all.
In other words, Ning Fan had only completed the first step when he condensed the Sovereign's Shadow in the past.
The second step was to prepare enough spiritual herbs and spiritual items for the Sovereign's Shadow. Through cultivation and comprehension, the Sovereign's Shadow would gradually devour the power of those natural treasures.
This process required a Void Fragmentation Realm expert to spend countless years comprehending and cultivating a sovereign qi cultivation method. Ning Fan had obtained the cultivation method and comprehension from the Crystal of Inheritance.
There were tens of thousands of bottles of dragon blood in the pool. They had also provided sufficient nourishment for the Sovereign's Shadow to condense the sovereign qi.
Next, there was only the third step left … to completely condense the sovereign qi!
This step required the cultivator to merge with the Sovereign's Shadow.
This step was the one that Ning Fan was the most worried about.
His cultivation base was too low. If he merges with the Sovereign's Shadow, the massive power of the pool of dragon blood would undoubtedly be added to his body.
In an instant, Ning Fan's body might directly explode from the power of the dragon blood.
His palms were slightly sweaty. This was undoubtedly another huge gamble.
Giving up the third step would mean losing the chance to condense the sovereign qi. However, there was no need for him to take the risk.
Choosing the third step would give him the chance to condense the sovereign qi but he might also suffer a severe backlash.
Between life and death, Ning Fan's mind was in a mess. However, when his Sea of Consciousness recalled the scenes of gratitude and vengeance, his heart suddenly calmed down.
He could not run away.
If he had run away in the past, Weiliang would have already died in the hands of Zhang Qing. Her soul would have been completely destroyed and she would not have the chance to reunite with him in her next life.
If he had run away in the past, the Seven Apricot City would have been razed to the ground by Moksha Sovereign and he would certainly become a stray dog from that day onwards.
"The Incarnation Technique can ensure that I won't die even if I lose. The Black Star Technique can ensure that I won't die even if I get injured. Even if I lose, I will only suffer heavy injuries and lose my cultivation base. If I succeed, I will also be a sovereign realm expert from today onwards. "
"I want to become a sovereign realm expert!"
Ning Fan's eyes flashed with determination. A wave of resolute aura force rose from his body.
As his aura force rose, a trace of the qi of the Insect Sovereign's blood in his blood resonated with it.
That blood was a gift from Yu Chong 'er.
That blood was once the blood of her reincarnation as the Insect Sovereign. With this blood, Ning Fan's chances of condensing the sovereign qi would be much higher.
Without any hesitation, Ning Fan took a step forward and overlapped with the Sovereign's Shadow.
As soon as the Sovereign's Shadow which was glowing with blood-red light merged with Ning Fan, faint golden light of burning blood immediately rose around his body. A vast magic power burst out from his body.
In just an instant, his physical body was torn into pieces by the power of the dragon blood. However, by using the incarnation, the black shadow regained its form. Even though its face was pale, it was fearless.
"Refine!"
Ning Fan's fingers moved rapidly and forcefully refined the dragon blood into the Sovereign's Shadow. Traces of faint golden threads began to take shape within the Sovereign's Shadow.
The light of the dragon blood on the Sovereign's Shadow was slowly diminishing.
As for Ning Fan, he extracted all the souls of the earth and summoned his five natal stars. He then consumed half a bottle of healing medicine to recover his injuries at a crazy rate.
* Rumble *
Before Ning Fan's injuries were fully healed, his body exploded for the second time. He was still determined to refine the sovereign qi without any fear in his eyes.
"I want to become a sovereign realm expert!"
A sense of pride rose in Ning Fan's heart. He had always been a proud person.
His pride was not about fighting to the death for an undeserved reputation or a quarrel.
His pride was not about submitting to any power or authority for his entire life.
He wanted to become a sovereign who ruled over others instead of being ruled by others.
Today, he condensed the first trace of sovereign qi. In the future … he would become an Immortal Sovereign and stand at the peak of one billion worlds!
* Rumble *
In the past five days, Ning Fan's body exploded again and again. However, he reformed his body every time to suppress his injuries.
On the first day, his body exploded 102 times.
On the second day, his body exploded 75 times.
On the third day, his body exploded 51 times.
On the fourth day, his body exploded 12 times.
On the fifth day, his body only exploded 3 times.
The power of the dragon blood was becoming weaker and weaker. It was no longer dangerous.
As time went by, Ning Fan's body shone like a golden god. His eyes shone like the sun and moon and his aura was like the firmament.
Above his body, there was a golden light in the shape of a dragon soaring around his body.
The first trace of sovereign qi was completely condensed. He was just one step away from success!
Ning Fan's eyes were filled with pride. He suddenly raised his head and stared at the firmament coldly, as if he was talking to the heavens.
"I want to … become a sovereign realm expert!"
* Rumble *
He opened his mouth and swallowed the dragon-shaped golden light into his abdomen. Then, his eyes suddenly became domineering.
A vast aura force swept across the entire palace. Countless ancient bookshelves were directly lifted away by Ning Fan's aura force.
He performed a hand seal and a sovereign's shadow suddenly appeared behind him. This sovereign's shadow still did not have a face but it grew to ten zhang * tall from ten zhang * tall.
Its color also changed from pale gold to pure gold.
Ning Fan stomped on the ground and the ground immediately trembled. A trace of sovereign qi swirled around his body.
"I succeeded …"
His eyes were calm. He knew that he would succeed.
Because if he fails, he would keep trying until he succeeds.
The passage to the Blood Dragon Pool had already been opened. Now, Ning Fan could leave the pool at any time.
Ning Fan held the Rain Sovereign Token in his hand and pointed at it indifferently. A ray of golden light went into the token.
Under the activation of the sovereign qi, his figure suddenly disappeared from the third level and reappeared on the second level.
With his eyes that had condensed sovereign qi, he could naturally see that the Rain Sovereign Token had the ability to leave the pool at any time.
However, he did not leave immediately. Instead, he appeared in front of an Early Void Refinement Realm ferocious beast on the second level of the swamp. His eyes were indifferent.
He did not summon his Void Refinement Realm spiritual puppet nor did he take out his blood dragon demon sword. He just wanted to confront the beast with his sovereign qi.
* Roar *
The Void Refinement Realm ferocious beast panicked a little when it saw Ning Fan appearing out of nowhere. However, it calmed down immediately.
It could not understand why an Early Void Refinement Realm being like it would lose its composure when facing a Divine Transformation Realm being.
It could not understand why an Early Void Refinement Realm being like it would lose its composure when facing a Divine Transformation Realm being!
* Roar *
Very soon, it got rid of its fear. It was a Void Refinement Realm being. Why would it be afraid of a Divine Transformation Realm being? This is ridiculous!
It opened its mouth and spat out a ray of natal green lightning. In an instant, it turned into one million rays of lightning as if it was going to engulf Ning Fan.
In the past, Ning Fan could only evade such terrifying lightning. Even if he uses his incarnation to block it, he would still suffer severe injuries.
This time, however, Ning Fan would not evade it.
With a flick of his finger, a ray of golden light shot out and soared into the sky like a flying dragon.
As soon as the golden light soared into the sky, it immediately split into one million rays and turned into countless rays of golden light that covered the entire sky.
The golden rays of light slowly condensed into a gigantic golden mountain that was ten thousand zhang * (3.33m per zhang) tall.
That gigantic mountain pressed down on the Void Refinement Realm ferocious beast's head. As soon as the one million rays of green lightning touched the golden mountain, they all collapsed and dissipated.
Its falling speed was even faster than the traveling speed of a Late Void Refinement Realm cultivator. The Void Refinement Realm ferocious beast had no way to evade it at all.
* Boom *
As soon as the golden mountain pressed down, the ferocious beast's spine was crushed. Its blood flowed like a river as it fell to the ground and died!
As for that suppressive force, it directly caused the second level of the blood pool to shake violently. Countless Void Refinement Realm ferocious beasts began to panic.
All the ferocious beasts whose cultivation bases were lower than the Mid Void Refinement Realm looked at Ning Fan with unprecedented shock. All of them hid in a corner, afraid that Ning Fan would appear out of nowhere again to suppress them!
Terrifying. It's too terrifying. That gigantic golden mountain killed a Void Refinement Realm ferocious beast just by pressing down. Its destructive power was too terrifying.
"Is this the power of sovereign qi? A single trace of sovereign qi is enough to kill an Early Void Refinement Realm expert. If there are ten traces, a hundred traces, a thousand traces or even ten thousand traces … How destructive would its destructive power be?!"
"Sovereign qi is an offensive technique among the three Void Fragmentation Realm techniques!"
Ning Fan dispersed his sovereign qi. With just a casual glance, he scared the beasts away.
The suppression of this trace of sovereign qi by the golden mountain had nearly exhausted all of his magic power. Even though sovereign qi was powerful, its consumption was also huge.
After keeping the Void Refinement Realm dragon blood, Ning Fan clenched his fists tightly.
Today, he killed an Early Void Refinement Realm expert for the first time with his own strength!
Today, he was at the Void Refinement Realm. In the future … he would be at the Void Fragmentation Realm!
The day he killed Moksha Sovereign with his own hands wouldn't be too far away.
"Time to go."
The group of demonic beasts had already gathered and Ning Fan's magic power had been depleted. It would be difficult for him to instantly kill the other Void Refinement Realm beasts. There was no point in staying here any longer. It was more important to return to the Dragon Lake and complete Senior Yun's test.
If Ning Fan returns late, no one knew if Yun Tianjue would lose the bet. He didn't want to see Yun Tianjue's furious expression after losing his beloved sword.
As soon as he activated the Rain Sovereign's token, Ning Fan's figure gradually faded and disappeared from the second floor.
…
The Rain Palace of the Middle State was in an uproar.
In the ancestral temple of the Rain Palace, the giant statue of the Rain Ancestor that was worshipped day and night shone with golden light.
Tens of millions of miles of land in the Middle Continent were covered in golden clouds.
As a cultivator of the Middle Continent, it was impossible for him to not know the meaning behind such a phenomenon.
The new Rain Emperor … had been born!
But, how could this be possible!
The current Rain Emperor had yet to pass away, so how could a new Rain Emperor be born?
"Who condensed Sovereign Qi? Was it Yun Xiaoxiang or Yun Tianjue?! "
The Rain Sovereign gathered countless experts of the Middle State and questioned them the moment he opened his mouth. It seemed like even he did not understand why the statue of the Rain Ancestor would show such an unusual phenomenon.
Even though he did not know the reason, he could guess that someone in the Rain World must have condensed Sovereign Qi using the Sovereign Rain Primordial Art. Otherwise, the statue of the Rain Ancestor would not show such an unusual phenomenon.
Who could it be?
Yun Xiaoxiang was the second prince and also the biological son of the current Rain Sovereign. If Yun Xiaoxiang condensed Sovereign Qi, the Rain Sovereign would certainly be happy.
However, if it was Yun Tianjue … He was not the biological son of the Rain Sovereign. He became the Divine Son with his own strength.
If he condensed Sovereign Qi, wouldn't it mean that he would definitely become the next Rain Sovereign?
Although the Rain Sovereign did not say it out loud, he certainly did not want the Rain Palace to fall into the hands of outsiders.
Yun Xiaoxiang had yet to return from his travels, and Yun Tianjue seemed to be in the Dragon Deciding Valley. If it was not Yun Tianjue who condensed the sovereign qi, it was most likely Yun Xiaoxiang.
"Father, the one who condensed the sovereign qi is certainly not Yun Tianjue … When I fought with him a month ago, his strength had already recovered to the Fourth Heavenly Layer of the Void Fragmentation Realm. He was extremely strong. However, his attacks were still filled with terrifying baleful qi. It's definitely not the graceful demeanor of a sovereign cultivator … He certainly doesn't have the sovereign qi on him!"
Yun Jinghong clasped his fists as he spoke. He was also the son of the Rain Emperor.
There were still wounds on his face. Surprisingly, they were inflicted by Yun Tianjue's Myriad Sword Style.
He was unwilling to see Yun Tianjue become the next Divine Emperor, so he was trying his best to prove that Yun Tianjue had not condensed the Sovereign Qi.
Although he harbored ill intentions, he did not lie. Yun Tianjue had never condensed Sovereign Qi before.
"If it's not Tian Jue, then it must be Xiaoxiang …"
The Rain Emperor's expression relaxed. If it was Yun Xiaoxiang, then not only was this not some grievous news, it was instead a good thing.
"Not me!"
Just as the Rain Emperor smiled, a cold voice traveled over from outside the palace. It was none other than Yun Xiaoxiang, who had just returned from a long journey.
It's not him, it's not him …
His words stunned all the cultivators of the Middle Continent.
Could they be the four great Void Fragmentation Realm experts? Impossible. The four great Void Fragmentation Realm experts have special identities but none of them have the qualifications to comprehend the sovereign qi. Even Chu Chang 'an had only condensed half a trace of the sovereign qi and it was given to him by the late emperor.
Apart from Yun Tianjue and Yun Xiaoxiang, no one else among the six princes possessed the aptitude to condense monarch qi.
If it wasn't Yun Tianjue or Yun Xiaoxiang … who could it be?
Or could it be that the statue of the Rain Ancestor had malfunctioned and was broken? That phenomenon, was it because something was wrong with the ancestral statue?
No one dared to say that the statue of the Rain Ancestor was broken. That was treason.
In an instant, a sudden storm swept across the Middle State and even spread to the entire Rain World.
Who is the true God Emperor of the human world!
