The first floor of the tower was filled with Brahma Light. These Brahma Lights were healing the female corpse while attacking Ning Fan in an attempt to suppress him.
Since Ning Fan was prepared, it was impossible for him to be hurt by the Brahma Light on the first floor.
With his strength, he could easily shatter a layer of Brahma Light with just a lift of his hand. However, he was unwilling to do so. If he destroys the Brahma Light, how would the female corpse heal herself?
Ning Fan secretly made a hand seal. A layer of jade-colored astral spirit immediately appeared on the surface of his body to protect him. With the astral spirit defense of a Jade Life Body Cultivator, the first layer of Brahma Light could not hurt Ning Fan at all.
As he stepped on the Seven Treasures Glazed Stairs, endless Brahma Chants resounded in his ears, causing his Sea of Consciousness to ache slightly.
However, the Brahma Chants gradually healed the female corpse's Sea of Consciousness and made her fall into a deep sleep. A corpse devil did not need sleep in the first place. The reason why she fell into a deep sleep was to complete the healing of her Sea of Consciousness.
Enduring the pain, Ning Fan's eyes were filled with determination. He carried the sleeping female corpse and stepped into the second floor of the tower.
As soon as he stepped into the second floor, a Brahma Chants that were a few times stronger than the first floor suddenly pressed down on Ning Fan.
In front of Ning Fan were several golden-armored evil spirits. Each of them had a Harmonious Spirit Realm cultivation base. There were more than a hundred of them and all of them were formed from golden light. They stood in front of Ning Fan, preventing him from stepping into the second floor.
"You're just a devil spawn. How stubborn. I'll suppress you with my seven treasures."
This voice was obviously the same as the one who spoke on the first floor. The tone was hard and obscure without any emotion. It was as if the speaker was not a living person but an inanimate object.
As soon as the Brahma Chants were suppressed, it immediately turned into thousands of golden Buddha beads and pressed down on Ning Fan's head. Each of the Buddha beads could kill a Harmonious Spirit Realm expert!
As soon as the voice gave the order, the hundred Harmonious Spirit Realm evil spirits immediately let out strange roars and attacked Ning Fan.
Ning Fan's eyes flashed with cold light. His black sword sense swept across the area, shattering the golden Buddha beads into traces of golden light.
As for the mere hundred Harmonious Spirit Realm evil spirits, how could they withstand Ning Fan's sword sense?
When the golden light was broken and the evil spirits were eliminated, the emotionless voice also gradually disappeared and stopped attacking Ning Fan.
If he did not sense wrongly, the owner of that cold voice should be the tower spirit that guards this Buddha Tower.
Originally, the existence of this pagoda spirit was just to prevent cultivators whose cultivation bases were not high enough from ascending to the higher levels of the pagoda. However, after seeing Ning Fan as the True Devil, the pagoda spirit instinctively attacked him.
"I never expected that there would actually be a pagoda spirit within the Buddha's Pagoda. Moreover, this pagoda spirit actually launched an attack against me because I possess the devil blood. I originally only wanted to bring Weiliang to the pagoda to treat her injuries, but with these unforeseen events, it has caused a lot of trouble. "
If I'm not wrong, this pagoda spirit ought to be staying on the 7th level of the Buddha Pagoda, and it possesses a cultivation at the Peak Void Refinement Realm. It's an out-and-out old monster of the Void Stage, and it's absolutely not something I can go against. However, due to certain reasons, this Pagoda Spirit can't leave the seventh floor on its own. It can only attack me with Sanskrit and evil spirits. It can't kill me with its own hands. "
"The seventh floor … The seventh floor of the Lost World Tower leads to the eighth dark floor. Moreover, there are seven Time Crystals hidden in the eighth dark floor. They are the energy source for the Lost World Tower to accelerate time. This seventh floor of the Buddha's Pagoda is guarded by the pagoda spirit. Could there be an eighth floor as well? The Buddha's Pagoda is built for healing. Therefore, there must be a supreme healing treasure in the eighth floor which provides endless healing power to the pagoda! "
With Ning Fan's intelligence, he had already deduced many things from the pagoda spirit's behavior of guarding the seventh floor.
Originally, he wanted to bring the female corpse with him and slowly treat her injuries in the pagoda. He did not know when he would be able to fully heal her.
Now that he had deduced that there was a supreme healing treasure hidden in the pagoda, he must obtain that treasure in order to help the female corpse's Sea of Consciousness recover.
The healing power that the treasure contained was enough to turn the seven-floored pagoda into a holy land for healing injuries. If he obtains this treasure, it would definitely be of great help to the female corpse's injuries!
Even though he knew that there was an Absolute Void Stage pagoda spirit on the seventh floor, Ning Fan would not change his mind.
"Weiliang, have a good rest. I will go and get the treasure for you and treat your injuries …"
Ning Fan stroked the sleeping face of the lady in his arms. She was cold and did not have any body temperature, which made Ning Fan feel even more pity for her.
In his previous life, Mu Weiliang was spurned by the divine race because of a butterfly. She was regarded as a traitor by all the immortals and deities and died as a corpse devil.
In this life, Ning Fan was going to repay her for what she had done in her previous life!
He must help her recover her Sea of Consciousness and let her smile again!
After keeping the female corpse into his Cauldron Ring, Ning Fan's body emitted a strong killing intent. It was an unstoppable determination.
"So what if it's the spirit of the Absolute Void Tower? It's just an inanimate object after all. Why should I be afraid?!"
With a single step, he turned into a wisp of smoke and went to the third floor, the fourth floor and the fifth floor.
Gold Core Realm evil ghosts, kill!
Nascent Soul Realm evil ghosts, kill!
Spirit Severing Realm evil ghosts, kill!
The glazed floor was covered with flesh and blood of corpses. Ning Fan stepped on the fresh blood and crushed all the Brahma Light. Then, he stood for a while in the empty fifth floor.
He did not immediately enter the sixth floor because he understood that once he enters the sixth floor of the pagoda, he would probably be attacked by Void Refinement Realm evil ghosts.
It had been a month since he left the Black Lightning Tower. The devil qi on Ning Fan's primordial spirit had been forced out bit by bit. Now, he could once again transform into his ancient devil body.
This time, entering the sixth and seventh floors would be extremely dangerous. Thus, Ning Fan must give it his all.
Amidst the surging devil qi, Ning Fan transformed into a revered devil in black robes. He had a devil horn on his head, a pair of devil wings on his back and a devil eye on his glabella.
Amidst the flashes of lightning, Ning Fan summoned his lightning armor. His defensive power rose to an extremely terrifying level.
Amidst the dazzling starlight, Ning Fan summoned his natal black stars. Ninety-nine black stars hovered above his head.
Amidst the layers of golden shadows, Ning Fan split into two phantoms of golden bodies. All of a sudden, he had two more Golden Body Refining Realm subordinates.
"Soul Extraction!"
After doing all that, Ning Fan still felt that it was not enough. He clawed with his five fingers and extracted all the souls of the earth.
Outside the pagoda, inside the Six-Winged Clan, the ground began to collapse. The waves were filled with countless undercurrents and whirlpools.
All the members of the Six-Winged Clan including Xuan Yi were stunned. They did not know what had happened inside the pagoda that made someone perform the Soul Extraction Technique.
Yue Lingkong's eyes were filled with worry. She wanted to enter the pagoda to investigate but she stopped herself.
"This won't do. I have to trust Little Cucumber. He has countless methods to protect himself. Even if something unexpected happens inside the pagoda, he will be fine. As for me, I have to stay here to protect him. If someone destroys the formation light while I'm not here, the pagoda won't be able to open anymore. "
On the fifth floor of the pagoda, Ning Fan did not stop after making all the necessary preparations. With an unstoppable aura force, he stepped into the sixth floor.
The moment he stepped into the sixth floor, 108 malevolent spirits clad in golden armor appeared one after another. Each of them had a cultivation base above the Void Refinement Realm. All of their killing intent locked onto Ning Fan.
Among the 108 Void Refinement Realm malevolent spirits, 72 of them were at the Void Glimpse Stage while 36 were at the Void Inquiry Stage!
Even a Void Pierce Stage or Absolute Void Stage cultivator would certainly be in an extremely dangerous situation if they were to be besieged by so many malevolent spirits.
Ning Fan, however, did not stop at all. The moment he entered the sixth floor, he activated the Heaven Deceiving Cloak and moved stealthily towards the seventh floor.
The Heaven Deceiving Cloak could even block off Void Fragmentation Realm spirit sense. Seeing Ning Fan suddenly disappear, the 108 malevolent spirits were bewildered.
The tower spirit that was guarding the seventh floor was also startled when it saw Ning Fan's disappearance. Then, it shouted out a Sanskrit word 'swastika'.
That Sanskrit word came from the seventh floor. It was just one floor away from the sixth floor. Its destructive force was infinitely close to the Void Fragmentation Realm. It exploded on the sixth floor and attacked indiscriminately.
Ning Fan's expression changed. He did not expect that the tower spirit would actually launch such a large-scale attack in an attempt to force him out of his concealment.
All of a sudden, the shadows of tens of thousands of gems appeared in all directions. There were silver stones, golden stones, colored glass, crystals, shells, corals and amber.
Each of the magnificent gems carried a force that was like a falling meteor, which was equivalent to the full-force attack of a Void Glimpse Stage cultivator.
Each of the malevolent spirits was hit by the gems and suffered severe injuries. Ning Fan was also hit by tens of gems.
A wave of bone-piercing pain spread throughout his entire body. His third level golden lightning armor actually cracked under the attack of the tower spirit from a distance. It seemed like the gems had the ability to penetrate armor.
Tens of massive forces landed on Ning Fan's chest and even left a Sanskrit word 'swastika' mark on his body, breaking his concealment.
When Ning Fan's concealment was broken, his eyes were filled with astonishment.
The magic technique of this tower spirit could manifest tens of thousands of gems. Among them, the attack of tens of gems was already comparable to the destructive power of Ning Fan's strongest magic technique.
Moreover, this was just a casual attack from the tower spirit from a distance. If Ning Fan faces the tower spirit head-on, he probably would not have any chance of winning without using the Stele of Sun and Moon.
An Absolute Void Stage expert was indeed powerful. However, if there is only one of them, it might not be impossible to kill him!
The Sanskrit word 'swastika' mark was slightly troublesome. Even with the power of samsara, it would take him quite some time to erase the mark and conceal himself again.
After Ning Fan's concealment was broken, the injured malevolent spirits once again surrounded Ning Fan and attacked him, blocking his path to the seventh floor.
As for the tower spirit, it seemed like it had consumed a lot of its magic power to break Ning Fan's concealment. Thus, it did not continue to attack.
Since he could no longer conceal himself, Ning Fan had no other choice but to kill his way out.
In his demonized state, Ning Fan's physical body was comparable to King Ying Long's. He was extremely strong. When he displayed his powerful body techniques, ordinary Void Inquiry Stage old monsters would not be able to withstand them at all. Moreover, many of the 108 Void Refinement Realm malevolent spirits were injured by the tower spirit's magic techniques.
"Void Technique, Double Dragon!"
"Void Technique, Moon-Tearing Dragon!"
Punches were thrown out one after another. Moonlight dragon claws tore through the air, repelling the attacks of the Void Refinement Realm malevolent spirits.
Each of his Dao body techniques could reap the life of a severely injured Void Glimpse Stage expert. However, these Void Refinement Realm malevolent spirits did not seem to know fear. All of them were willing to exchange their lives for Ning Fan's. They wanted to leave injuries on Ning Fan's body even if they were to self-detonate.
This was a battle of life and death. Being surrounded and attacked by 108 Void Refinement Realm malevolent spirits, there was no technique to speak of. All of them could only fight to the death with all their might.
The two golden figures were quickly annihilated in the midst of this massacre.
Even though the defense of the lightning armor was heaven-defying, it could not withstand the overwhelming number of enemies. After killing more than ten Void Glimpse Stage experts and two Void Inquiry Stage experts, the lightning armor was finally on the verge of breaking.
The crack that was created by the tower spirit grew larger and larger. Eventually, it crumbled into pieces. Fortunately, this lightning armor was just a magic technique and not a magic treasure. After this battle, Ning Fan could condense his primordial lightning again to form the lightning armor. There was no such thing as it being destroyed.
However, losing the lightning armor now was just too disadvantageous for Ning Fan.
Without the defense of the lightning armor, every desperate attack of the malevolent spirits was enough to leave serious injuries on Ning Fan's body.
In just a few breaths' time, Ning Fan's body was already covered in wounds. His black robes were stained with blood.
Even his natal black stars could not heal the injuries caused by more than ninety Void Refinement Realm malevolent spirits in time. Even so, many of these Void Refinement Realm malevolent spirits were severely injured and their combat power was greatly reduced.
* Roar *
Ning Fan let out a devil roar. He knew that he could no longer be entangled with these malevolent spirits. He must head to the seventh floor immediately.
In his senses, there was only a trace of ferocious qi of the tower spirit on the seventh floor.
As long as I enter the seventh floor and suppress the tower spirit with a single attack of the Stele of Sun and Moon … I will get the treasures!
"Yellow Dragon Seven Tokens! Suppress! "
Ning Fan stared at the entrance of the seventh floor that was far away from him. His eyes flashed with determination. He patted his storage pouch, took out seven yellow jade tokens and tossed them to the sky.
The seven jade tokens were all Mid Grade Mortal Void Realm treasures. With Ning Fan's current magic power, he was far from being able to use them.
Traces of his blood essence seeped into the jade tokens. Even after damaging himself, he could only activate half of the power of the jade tokens.
Even so, the combined destructive power of the seven tokens was already infinitely close to a Void Pierce Stage attack.
The seven layers of yellow skies pressed down. Each and every one of the malevolent spirits let out blood-curdling screams. Some of them were severely injured while some of them were directly crushed into meat paste.
Ning Fan was not in the mood to check the casualties of the malevolent spirits. He kept the jade tokens and finally managed to carve out a path of blood. With a flash of travelling light, he dashed into the seventh floor.
"Impossible!"
The moment Ning Fan stepped into the seventh floor, a stiff and cold voice resounded from the seventh floor. For the first time, it revealed an expression of disbelief.
It could never imagine that Ning Fan who was just a Half-Step Void Refinement Realm cultivator could actually kill his way into the seventh floor!
There were no deadly battles that Ning Fan had expected. The seventh floor was an empty Buddhist hall. There was only an ancient statue made of pure gold standing tall. It was already in a dilapidated state.
Ning Fan understood that this statue was the tower spirit that guarded the seven floors of the pagoda.
This statue was already in such a dilapidated state. It was no wonder that it had to wait for a long time before it could launch another attack.
Ning Fan had overestimated this tower spirit. There was no need for him to use the Void Fragmentation Realm attack of the Stele of Sun and Moon to deal with an Absolute Void Tower spirit that was at the end of its tether.
As soon as the ancient statue saw Ning Fan enter the seventh floor, its eyes shot out layers of Brahma light which turned into tens of thousands of dazzling gemstones. All of them carried Buddha light and pressed down on Ning Fan's head.
"Ancient devil, you must die!"
The attack came too fast. It was an Absolute Void Realm attack which was enough to kill Ning Fan. There was no way for him to avoid it.
Suddenly, Ning Fan's eyes flashed with the light of his plan succeeding. His figure instantly disappeared from where he stood. He had entered the Profound Yin World.
All the attacks missed their targets and struck onto the Buddha's Pagoda, and they almost destroyed the pagoda.
"It disappeared? Where did it go? Even if it hides in a heavenly dwelling magic treasure, it will still be crushed by the seven treasures. Could it be that this devil is hiding in a small chiliocosm cosmos treasure? "The ancient statue was puzzled.
When the smoke and dust dispersed, Ning Fan slowly got out of the Profound Yin World. He looked at the ancient statue which could not launch any attacks for the time being and did not give any explanation.
He would not give any explanation to a person who was about to die.
It would be best if he could kill the tower spirit with a trick.
Ning Fan touched his glabella. The Separation Slayer Flying Sword turned into layers of sword shadows which crushed the dilapidated ancient statue.
At the moment when the ancient statue was destroyed, the spiritual power of the entire Buddha Tower greatly decreased. All the evil ghosts summoned by the tower spirit struggled and turned into golden light before disappearing.
When the ancient statue was destroyed, a door of light immediately appeared on the wall behind it. It must be the entrance to the eighth floor which was where the supreme healing treasures were stored.
Without any hesitation, Ning Fan directly stepped into the door of light.
This Buddha Tower was a gift from the Kunlun Jade Pool to the Six-Winged Clan. It no longer belonged to the Jade Pool.
That was why the tower spirit of this tower was so dilapidated and weak.
That was why Ning Fan dared to kill the ghosts and seize the treasures in public after knowing that there were treasures in this tower. He was not worried about offending the Kunlun Jade Pool at all and did not have any psychological burden.
The eighth floor of the Buddha Tower was different from the eighth floor of the Lost World Tower. There were seven jade platforms with seven treasures which were glowing with Brahma light. All of them had great healing power. However, there were no formations or spiritual puppets to protect them.
This was a tower that was given to someone else. The Jade Pool naturally would not spend too much effort to protect the seven treasures. If they want to set up a defense, it should be set up by one of the Six-Winged Clan's ancestors who had obtained the tower.
After dispersing his devilization state, Ning Fan's white robes were stained with blood. His injuries were rather serious but he wore a satisfied smile.
He could feel the shocking healing power from the seven treasures. They were the seven relics which were left behind by a true Buddha. They were in the form of gold, silver, colored glass, crystal, shell, amber and coral respectively.
Ning Fan thought that if he consumes one of the seven relics, he would be able to recover instantly even if his injuries were twice as serious.
However, he was reluctant to consume the seven relics because they were all prepared by the female corpse.
"Keep!"
Ning Fan flicked his sleeves and kept the seven relics. All of a sudden, the Buddha Tower trembled and lost all of its spiritual power. The seven floors of the tower no longer had any healing effect.
"H-How could this be?!"
Outside the Buddha Tower, Great Elder Xuan Yi who was waiting outside almost had the urge to puke blood.
He had lent the Buddha Tower to Ning Fan but he did not expect that Ning Fan would actually 'break' the tower and it could no longer be used to treat injuries.
On one hand, Xuan Yi was really distressed by the destruction of the Buddha Tower. On the other hand, he was greatly shocked. The Buddha Tower was considered as the greatest treasure of the Six-Winged Clan. It was not something that anyone could destroy at will.
It was said that the tower spirit with an Absolute Void Stage cultivation base was guarding it. If you want to destroy this tower, you would at least have to eliminate the Absolute Void Tower spirit. Other than Void Fragmentation Realm old monsters, who else could do such a thing?
Moreover, Xuan Yi could not figure out Ning Fan's motive for destroying the Buddha Tower at all.
Didn't Ning Fan want to use the tower to treat the female corpse? What benefits would he get by destroying the Buddha Tower?
"I can't figure it out … Could it be that the Buddha Tower wasn't destroyed by Revered Ming? Because it doesn't make sense. "
Xuan Yi was also uncertain about what exactly happened in the Buddha Tower and whether it was Ning Fan who destroyed it or not.
Sensing that Ning Fan's qi was still in the tower, no one dared to enter the tower to investigate. They could only wait for him to come out of the tower and ask him about it.
On the eighth floor of the Buddha Tower, Ning Fan summoned the female corpse. He held her in his arms and sat on the floor.
Previously, he was not confident that he could heal the female corpse's Sea of Consciousness. Now that he had seized the seven relics of the Buddha Tower, he was confident that he could heal her in one go.
Ning Fan stuffed the seven relics into the female corpse's mouth one by one.
As soon as the seven relics entered her stomach, traces of healing power that was enough to bring the dead back to life spread throughout her delicate body.
The corpse devil's body had lost its life force and had no physiological activities. Originally, the injuries that she suffered could only be 'repaired' but not 'healed'.
However, the seven relics seemed to have given her life force, allowing her injuries to be healed one by one.
For the first time, her pale face showed the redness of a normal woman.
For the first time, her cold little hands carried the warmth of a normal woman.
Her Sea of Consciousness was recovering bit by bit.
In her dried up immortal veins, traces of magic power were being generated.
"This is … resurrection!"
Ning Fan's eyes widened in surprise. This scene was out of his expectation but he was overjoyed.
When he seized the relics, he only wanted to heal the female corpse's Sea of Consciousness. He did not think that she could come back to life because she lacked three souls and seven spirits.
However, at this moment, the seven relics entered her body and provided her with endless life force. The female corpse's body was indeed showing signs of life!
"Light … Cold …" The female corpse's brows were tightly knitted together. It was the first time she felt pain.
In the past, she was a corpse devil. She did not have any senses. She could not feel pain, cry, feel cold or shed tears of sadness.
Today, however, she actually said that she felt cold in her sleep.
Her body began to feel cold again and became weak. Ning Fan did not know what had happened.
Ning Fan used his spirit sense to examine her body. Soon, he found out that the reason why the female corpse said that she felt cold was because she was a dead person and a woman. The Yin Qi in her body was too strong and she needed some Yang Blood to provide some Yang Qi.
Without any hesitation, Ning Fan waved the Separation Slayer Sword and cut his arm. Then, he fed the blood into the female corpse's mouth.
The female corpse's sharp teeth bit Ning Fan's arm and unconsciously sucked his blood.
Ning Fan's blood was too delicious. It was even more delicious than the blood of other Divine Transformation Realm and Void Refinement Realm old monsters. It was the most perfect blood.
The female corpse was still a corpse devil after all. How could she resist the temptation of flesh and blood? In her sleep, she bit a large piece of flesh from Ning Fan's arm.
* Hiss *
Ning Fan took a cold breath. The sudden pain made him frown slightly. However, he immediately let go of her hand with a loving expression.
She was a corpse devil. Ning Fan would not blame her for making a mistake unconsciously.
After consuming a piece of Ning Fan's flesh, the Yang Qi in her body was already sufficient. She revealed a satisfied smile and fell asleep.
She showed signs of resurrection after consuming the seven relics. However, he did not know how long it would take for her to be completely resurrected.
It might be one year, ten years, a hundred years or even a thousand years.
This time, no matter how long she slept, Ning Fan would wait for the day she wakes up and reunite with her for real.
At that time, she would be the real Mu Weiliang. She would be a living person and not a corpse devil.
With a flick of his finger, Ning Fan temporarily stopped the bleeding on his arm. He did not have the time to deal with the wound. Instead, he carefully held the female corpse's hand and began to massage her arm. Gradually, he massaged her entire body to help her relax her muscles and blood circulation.
"From today onwards, you are no longer a female corpse. You are the real … Mu Weiliang …"
Ning Fan revealed an expectant expression. He was looking forward to Mu Weiliang's awakening.
In his previous life, he was the butterfly while she was the daughter of the Heaven Emperor. She died for him and he died for her.
In this life, he had already reincarnated into a human while her three spiritual and seven physical souls turned into Zhihe and saved him once again.
Whether she was Zhihe or Mu Weiliang, Ning Fan would never let her suffer any harm.
In order to protect her, he still needed to constantly improve his cultivation base.
"You gave me a pair of butterfly wings and I promised you a lifetime without any conflicts … I promise …"
