In the Six-Winged Clan, every corner was filled with the joy of surviving a disaster.
In exchange for Fen Chi, Ning Fan accepted the affiliation of the Six-Winged Clan. Countless experts of the Six-Winged Clan heaved a sigh of relief as they no longer had to worry about being annexed by other clans.
After accepting the affiliation, Ning Fan became the leader of the Six-Winged Clan. He immediately emptied the immortal jade of the Six-Winged Clan which amounted to more than one billion immortal jades.
The news of Ning Fan becoming the leader of the Six-Winged Clan was purposely spread by the Six-Winged Clan. Ning Fan's identity was special. Even Prince Lan Ling, the Mist Horn Clan and the Ghost Eye Clan had to be wary of him and would not openly deal with the Six-Winged Clan.
However, this kind of behavior which was similar to giving away a daughter to someone else was unfair to Fen Chi.
She had a peerless appearance and a Divine Transformation Realm cultivation base. She had a bright future ahead of her. However, she was given to Ning Fan as a concubine by the Six-Winged Clan just because of her identity as a 'devil concubine'. Her fate was unfair.
However, in order for her clan to continue and for the Six-Winged Clan to survive, she could only nod in silence and agree to marry Ning Fan as a concubine. She had no other choice.
Under the bright night sky, Fen Chi was wearing a wedding robe. She sat alone in her room, waiting for Ning Fan's arrival. Her eyes were filled with loneliness and sorrow.
Even though she had a good impression of Ning Fan, she also had the pride of being a talented lady. She was unwilling to become Ning Fan's concubine in such a way.
Since she was' given 'to Ning Fan, she was destined to not be respected by him. Was that why she was sad?
"Devil concubine … It turns out that I am the current devil concubine of the Six-Winged Clan … No wonder I was born without slave marks. No wonder I have the ability to awaken the devil wings of my clansmen …"
"The devil wings of the members of the Six-Winged Clan aren't born with them. They are tattooed with the devil marks of the wings. After a hundred years of cultivation, the devil marks of the wings are awakened bit by bit and they finally grow devil wings. Among the cultivators at the same level as them, the speed of the experts of the Six-Winged Clan is outstanding. However, my ability can directly awaken the devil marks of the wings, allowing the clansmen who have the devil marks of the wings to instantly grow devil wings. "
"A devil concubine can create a devil clan … The great elder married me to Young Master Zhou. If he uses my ability properly according to the jade slip that the great elder taught him, he can train a devil clan that is not any weaker than the Six-Winged Clan in the future. Everyone who possesses the Devil Mark of Wings will be able to instantly obtain Devil Wings with my ability … "
Fen Chi muttered to herself. Her mind gradually recalled Ning Fan's figure.
"He is a heartless person. He will not love me. I am just his tool. Perhaps in this life, I will not even be comparable to a tool."
Fen Chi's eyes were filled with sorrow. She recalled how Ning Fan carefully cared for the female corpse and how intimate he was with Yue Lingkong. However, he was the only one who treated her coldly like a passerby.
Creak!
When she was feeling sorry for herself, Ning Fan pushed the door open and stepped into the bridal chamber. Outside the door, the night was desolate.
"This concubine greets Young Master Zhou. No, greets my husband." Fen Chi hid her sad expression and stood up gracefully to greet Ning Fan.
Ning Fan's eyes swept across the bridal chamber and revealed a playful smile.
This Xuan Yi was rather interesting. Not only did he gift Fen Chi to him, he even prepared a wedding room for him in the mortal world.
Tonight, Ning Fan had asked Yue Lingkong to rest by herself. Instead, he came to look for Fen Chi. Of course, it was not because he wanted to flirt with women.
However, Fen Chi did not think so. She naturally felt that Ning Fan was here to 'pamper' her. The feeling of waiting for someone to pamper her was very unpleasant.
She forced a smile and closed the door. Then, she held a cup of wine and sat together with Ning Fan. Both of them drank together, trying to build up the atmosphere so that her first night would not seem so desolate and sad.
"My husband, please have a drink. This is the precious wine of my Six-Winged Clan. Drinking this wine is the best way to liven up the atmosphere." Fen Chi forced a smile.
"The wine is not bad. However, you don't seem to be very happy. Are you not willing to be my concubine? "Ning Fan smiled playfully.
"I don't dare to!" Fen Chi's eyes were filled with panic. Could it be that Ning Fan saw through her resentment?
She must not let him see through it. If Ning Fan was dissatisfied with her, he might vent his anger on the Six-Winged Clan. She did not dare to joke around with her relatives.
Ning Fan, however, waved his hand disapprovingly. He took a sip of the wine and said with a smile.
"It doesn't matter if you don't want to. You don't have to worry. I am a man of my word. Since I have promised to protect the Six-Winged Clan, I will not go back on my words nor will I vent my anger on the Six-Winged Clan. If you don't want to call me husband, you can continue to call me young master. If you don't want me to touch you, I will never touch even a finger of yours. You don't have to worry about this. I am not a lustful person. To be honest, compared to your body, I am more interested in your identity as a devil concubine. According to the jade slip that Fellow Daoist Xuan Yi gave me, as a devil concubine of the Six-Winged Clan, you have the special ability to awaken the devil marks of wings? "
"Yes. I do have such an ability. I have already become Young Master Zhou's concubine. As long as Young Master has an order, I will engrave the devil marks of wings on your subordinates and awaken their devil wings. I will certainly be able to train an army of devil wings for Young Master. To Young Master, my identity as a devil concubine is very useful. "
When Fen Chi heard Ning Fan's promise, she heaved a sigh of relief but at the same time, she felt a little disappointed.
She was very glad that Ning Fan did not vent his anger on the Six-Winged Clan. She was very glad that Ning Fan at least respected her and would not harass or pluck her.
However, Ning Fan said that he was not interested in her body … This still made her feel a little disappointed.
"Help me awaken my devil wings first. Let me see what you are capable of. You also know how to engrave devil marks? " After Ning Fan had devoured the devil qi from the slate, the devil marks on his back had levelled up by one-fourth and six patterns of wings appeared.
Those six patterns of wings were the devil marks of wings. If they are awakened, they could grow six devil wings which would increase his speed.
The six wings after awakening were different from the six wings in their devil form. The six wings in the devil form only imitated the growth of Mo Luo's devil body. They did not have real devil wings.
In other words, Ning Fan only had two Fu Li Demon Wings now. He had yet to truly cultivate the Six Wings of Mo Luo.
If he could cultivate the Six Wings of Mo Luo, he would have eight wings in addition to the two wings of the Fu Li Demon Wings. His speed would naturally skyrocket. It was because Xuan Yi claimed that Fen Chi could help Ning Fan increase his speed that he accepted the Six-Winged Clan's request.
"Yes. I know how to engrave devil marks but I'm not proficient in it. I only know how to engrave the devil marks of wings. Among the four great devil clans, the one who is most proficient in the art of engraving devil marks is Miss Feng Xueyan. "
"Feng Xueyan …" Ning Fan remembered that the eldest daughter of the Giant Devil Clan was called Feng Xueyan. It was said that her body was not very healthy. She seemed to be Xu Qiuling's best friend.
"There are two steps to awaken the devil wings for my clansmen. The first step is to engrave the devil marks of wings on them. The second step is to use the 'Burning Feather Technique' to help my clansmen awaken their devil marks and summon their devil wings. Young Master is not a member of the devil race. Without the devil marks of wings, you won't be able to summon your devil wings. Therefore, the first step is for me to engrave the devil marks of wings on your clansmen … My talent and knowledge are shallow. The strongest devil marks of wings that I can engrave are only at the general grade … Besides, the process of engraving the devil marks is extremely painful. I hope that Young Master can endure it for a while … "
Fen Chi took out a jade box which contained a three inch long bone needle. It was a highly-graded engraving needle.
She took out a jade slip which recorded all the devil marks of wings of the general grade for Ning Fan to choose from. She did not dare to make the decision on her own as to which type of wings Ning Fan would like to engrave.
"Miss Fen Chi's engraving technique is quite extraordinary. I once met someone who also knew how to engrave devil marks. He told me that it would take one thousand years to master the devil marks of the soldier grade. Since Miss Fen Chi is able to engrave the devil marks of the general grade, your innate talent is really not low. You must have gone through a lot of hardships. "Ning Fan recalled Stone Warrior's words.
"Thank you for your compliment, Young Master." Fen Chi's eyes gradually brightened. Being praised by Ning Fan made her depressed mood lighten a little.
"I already have the devil marks of wings. As for the grade … I'm not sure if it's the general grade or the marshal grade … I can skip the first step of engraving the devil marks. Miss Fen Chi just needs to help me awaken these devil marks and help me grow six wings."
* Swish *
As soon as Ning Fan finished speaking, he suddenly tore off his white robes, completely exposing his upper body.
Fen Chi let out a cry. She did not expect Ning Fan to take off his clothes so calmly. When she saw Ning Fan's naked upper body, her enchanting eyes flashed with a hint of shyness.
Even if she was a Divine Transformation Realm old monster or a devil concubine, she was still an unmarried woman.
Her eyes lingered on Ning Fan's body and she felt a little surprised. Ning Fan's strength was so strong that he could kill Lu Jiefen with his fists. However, his body was so thin and weak.
When her gaze gradually shifted to Ning Fan's back, she suddenly revealed a look of astonishment.
"M-Profound Earth Devil Marks! N-No … This is … This is … "
The Profound Earth Devil Marks was a type of powerful general grade devil marks. To the four great devil clans, this devil mark had another special meaning.
Slave marks!
However, the Profound Earth Devil Marks were different from the inferior slave marks of the four great slave clans. It was the highest grade slave mark of Great Emperor Mo Luo. It was rare for anyone to cultivate it.
In the history of the four great slave clans, only a few experts including the ancestors of the four clans had managed to cultivate it.
Since Ning Fan was able to cultivate this kind of devil marks, his innate talent alone had already surpassed too many devil clans.
Moreover, the Profound Earth Devil Marks had another important meaning to the four great slave clans.
Those who cultivate the Profound Earth Devil Marks would eventually become the highest grade slave of Mo Luo. However, according to the legends, if someone could resist Mo Luo's devouring power, that person would not become his slave and could even help the four great slave clans break the slave marks.
Fen Chi stared at Ning Fan deeply in disbelief. The person who could break the slave marks of the Six-Winged Clan was actually right in front of me?
Since Ning Fan possessed the Profound Earth Devil Marks, he was the hope of the four great slave clans to break the slave marks and regain their freedom.
Moreover, when Fen Chi found out that the Profound Earth Devil Marks had advanced by one-fourth, she was even more astonished. She could not even close her mouth.
Ning Fan had already completed one-fourth of the advancement of his Profound Earth Devil Marks. This meant that he had resisted the devouring power of Great Emperor Mo Luo and was not enslaved!
As long as Ning Fan completely completes the advancement of his Profound Earth Devil Marks, it was highly likely that he would have the ability to break the slave marks of the four clans!
"You've seen the devil marks on my back. What do you think?" Ning Fan asked.
"I definitely won't dare to tell anyone about this secret. I'm willing to make a Great Oath of Heart Devil!" Fen Chi was a little flustered. She suddenly realized that Ning Fan's devil marks were very important.
Once the Ghost Eye Clan and the Mist Horn Clan find out that Ning Fan had a chance to break the slave marks of the four clans, it was unknown whether the two clans would plot against him or not.
Such an important secret had been seen by Fen Chi. She hurriedly expressed to Ning Fan that she would not reveal the secret as she was afraid that Ning Fan would be displeased.
"I'm asking you about the devil marks on my back. What do you think?"
It was just a devil mark. So what if the Ghost Eye Clan and the Mist Horn Clan find out about it? With his current strength, he was strong enough to protect himself in the Rain World. He was not afraid of the two devil clans.
"This …" Fen Chi calmed herself down. She reached out her soft palm and gently stroked Ning Fan's back, feeling the veins of the devil marks.
"The Profound Earth Devil Marks are about to advance. One-fourth of them have already been completed. As for the direction of advancement, I can't see through it. I can't be sure what kind of pattern will appear when the devil marks complete the remaining three-quarters of advancement. The pattern of these six wings is somewhat similar to the wings of my Six-Winged Clan. However, its grade is much higher. Perhaps, this is a type of powerful devil mark that has never been recorded before … Once it advances to the next level, it will certainly be extraordinary! "
"Is that so? Can you help me awaken my devil wings with the help of the six devil marks of wings? "
"I can definitely do it!" Fen Chi was very confident in her ability to awaken her devil wings.
Ning Fan's devil marks were not weak. Not only did Fen Chi want to awaken his devil wings, but she also wanted to make the grade of his devil wings extraordinary. Only then could she show off her abilities.
Most of the demon and devil cultivators in the Seven Realms of Truth Cultivation had wings. As for the grade of the wings, they could be divided into three different grades. Mortal Wings, Spirit Wings and Void Wings.
The grade of the wings was not directly related to their speed. It symbolized the cultivation aptitude of the wings.
If the Vein Opening Realm, Harmonious Spirit Realm and Gold Core Realm cultivators had wings, most of them were Mortal Wings. The wings of the Nascent Soul Realm and Divine Transformation Realm were mostly Spirit Wings. The wings of the Void Refinement Realm and Void Fragmentation Realm were mostly Void Wings.
Ning Fan's devil marks were quite extraordinary. The devil wings he awakened would definitely not be inferior to the Spirit Wings. In order to show off her abilities, Fen Chi had to at least awaken the Void Wings for Ning Fan.
She gently bit the tip of her tongue and sacrificed a drop of blood essence. Then, she chanted an ancient and mysterious incantation. A trace of strange power spread out from her body like a whisper or a call. It actually resonated with the pattern of the six wings on Ning Fan's devil marks.
She formed a hand seal and summoned six fiery-red wings. The wings were densely covered with fiery-red feathers.
Among the countless fiery-red feathers, there were more than a hundred of them. Their color was the deepest red and they possessed mysterious abilities.
Fen Chi endured the slight pain and plucked six of the scarlet feathers from her wings. Immediately, a feeling of weakness spread throughout her body.
These scarlet feathers were her natal fire feathers. They were connected to her primordial spirit. Now that she had just reconstructed her physical body, her body was still very weak. If she plucked off her natal fire feathers rashly, her primordial spirit would be in pain and it would affect her old injuries.
"Fen Chi, oh Fen Chi. Since when have you become such a coward? I've just plucked off six natal fire feathers and you can't even bear it? If you can't satisfy Young Master Zhou today, the Six-Winged Clan might perish because of you! Fen Chi, you have to grit your teeth and endure it! "
She muttered to herself and hid the slight paleness on her face. Then, she gritted her teeth and raised her hand. The six feathers turned into six traces of scarlet devil flames that danced on her palm.
With a flick of her finger, the six traces of devil flames shot into Ning Fan's devil marks. All of a sudden, the lines of each of the six devil marks on the wings were burning with devil flames.
Ning Fan felt as if his back was burning. Then, six enormous illusory devil wings grew on his back. The devil wings were burning with devil flames. As the devil flames burned, the wings gradually turned from illusory to solid. Flesh and blood gradually grew on them.
It was a kind of experience of being reborn from the ashes.
As the flames burned, traces of flesh and blood were growing from the flames!
There was an incomparably profound principle behind it.
"No wonder you're called Fen Chi. I understand now. Burning the wings in exchange for a new life. It's a pretty good name.
Feeling the six wings gradually becoming solid, Ning Fan nodded his head in satisfaction. These six wings were still illusory but they had already reached the level of Void Wings.
Fen Chi's abilities were indeed extraordinary. She had an outstanding ability to summon wings. With her around, she might really be able to train an army of devil wings for Ning Fan in the future.
"Thank you for your compliment, Young Master." Fine beads of sweat appeared on Fen Chi's forehead. She activated her devil flames to help Ning Fan burn his devil wings. Seeing that his devil wings had already reached the level of Void Wings, he revealed a relieved smile.
However, as the devil flames burned, Ning Fan's devil wings became more solid while the devil flames became weaker and weaker. In the end, the flames were extinguished. The devil wings actually did not succeed in awakening in one go. Only one-tenth of them had become solid.
As for the remaining nine-tenths, they were still in an illusory state.
Fen Chi was greatly surprised. When she awakened the wings of ordinary members of the devil race, she usually only needed to break off one of her natal fire plumes and it would produce enough devil flames to help the members of her race cultivate their devil wings.
The stronger the devil wings were, the more devil flames it would consume. However, even if Ning Fan was a member of the Six-Winged Clan who possessed the Void Wings, Fen Chi only needed to use five natal fire plumes at most to help him condense the Void Wings.
She had already overestimated Ning Fan's devil wings and used six fire plumes on him. However, she did not expect that the devil flames produced by the six fire plumes were only enough to make the devil wings become solid by one-tenth …
Fen Chi was a little dumbfounded. Just how powerful were these devil wings that they were so difficult to condense? They were even more powerful than the Void Wings!
Could it be that she had to use sixty fire plumes to help Ning Fan completely condense his devil wings?
After losing one's natal fire plumes, they could regrow after a certain period of time through cultivation. That way, they could continuously awaken the devil wings of a cultivator.
However, if she plucked sixty fire plumes in one go, it would certainly be difficult for her to cultivate them back.
Moreover, with Fen Chi's current weak body, plucking six fire plumes would already weaken her primordial spirit. If she plucked sixty fire plumes in one go, she might even suffer severe injuries.
Fen Chi's eyes were filled with sadness. However, a moment later, she made up her mind.
At this moment, the most important matter was more important. In order to help Ning Fan condense his devil wings and satisfy him, she naturally could not take care of her own body.
She gritted her teeth and wanted to pluck out her fire plumes again. However, Ning Fan held her wrist and stopped her.
"You have already helped me summon my devil wings. Next, just leave the task of burning the devil flames and condensing the devil wings to me. Take this Divine Injury Pill!"
Ning Fan did not wait for Fen Chi's reply and directly stuffed a pill into her cherry lips.
Fen Chi's beautiful face was stunned. Was he concerned about her? Was he afraid that she would get hurt?
When her soft lips were touched by Ning Fan's finger, her face turned slightly red. She stopped talking and carefully refined the medicinal power of the pill.
She did not ask much and Ning Fan did not answer her as well.
All of a sudden, Ning Fan rose to his feet. The six illusory devil wings on his back burned with extremely terrifying devil flames.
That devil flame was the fusion of countless heavenly frost and earthly flames.
The grade of that devil flame was comparable to a Mid-Grade Immortal Void Realm spiritual flame!
That devil flame gave Fen Chi a feeling of suffocation. She had never seen such a powerful devil flame in her entire life!
Under this powerful devil flame, Ning Fan's six wings were being reborn at an astonishing speed!
Under the nourishment of the devil flame, the aura force of the Void Wings actually increased rapidly!
At a certain moment, Ning Fan suddenly summoned his Fu Li Demon Wings. The eight wings were burning in the devil flame at the same time. Gradually, the devil flame turned pitch-black!
"T-These are demon wings! These demon wings are actually also at the Void Wings Realm! "Fen Chi had done a lot of research on wings. She could tell that Ning Fan had both demon wings and devil wings at the same time with just a glance.
She could not understand why the demon wings and devil wings could exist in Ning Fan's body at the same time when they were two completely different types of wings.
She could not understand why Ning Fan actually had a pair of Void Wings in the first place!
She could not understand all of this. However, she could feel the aura force from Ning Fan's wings getting stronger and stronger.
The Fu Li Demon Wings that were at the Void Wings Realm and the Six Wings Devil Wings that were at the Void Wings Realm actually showed signs of merging. The aura force of the wings actually began to break through the limit of the Void Wings Realm.
"Eight Demon Wings … Condense for me!"
A strong aura force suddenly spread out from Ning Fan's body and engulfed the entire Six-Winged Clan.
At this moment, the eight demon wings that were burning with black devil flames on Ning Fan's back gave off a terrifying aura force.
At this moment, all the members of the Six-Winged Clan who had wings felt that their devil wings were trembling in fear.
It was as if all the devil wings in the world were not as powerful as Ning Fan's.
It was a kind of aura force that came from the wings. It was much stronger than all the Spirit Wings and Void Wings in the Seven Realms of Cultivation.
The aura force of this kind of wings had far surpassed the Void Wings. It was impossible for it to appear on cultivators of the Seven Realms of Cultivation. Normally, it would only appear on the wings of Heavenly Demons and Heavenly Devils.
This aura force had already reached a higher grade than the Void Wings!
Xuan Yi's expression changed greatly. He looked at the direction of Ning Fan's new house in disbelief. There's no mistake. The aura force of the wings that caused Xuan Yi's mind to be in a mess was definitely emitted by Ning Fan.
Could it be that Ning Fan did not spend the night with Fen Chi tonight but asked her to awaken his devil wings for him?
"Heavenly Demon Heavenly Devil Wings! I can't be wrong! The devil wings that Fellow Daoist Zhou condensed have actually reached this level! "
"If Fellow Daoist Zhou concentrates on cultivating these devil wings and gradually increases their speed, the speed of these devil wings will definitely be comparable to that of Heavenly Demons and Heavenly Devils one day! These are treasured wings with a boundless future! "
