In Mu Ye Country, the sea of bamboos stretched as far as the eye could see. Ning Fan turned into a ray of light and flew above the sea of bamboos.
He had already sensed that there were cultivators following him as soon as he entered Muye Country.
Even though those cultivators had concealed themselves, they could not hide from Ning Fan's spirit sense at all. The clan insignia on their clothes showed their identity …
They were all cultivators of the Bai Li Clan!
There were a total of three people who came. Among them, two were Void Glimpse Stage experts while the other was Void Inquiry Stage!
The cultivation of these three people might not be high, but each of their bodies exuded an extremely strong baleful aura. They were all invincible in the same realm!
These three people were carefully trained assassins of the Bai Li Clan!
After Ning Fan entered one million li * (500m per li) of Mu Ye Country, he immediately stopped moving and hovered above the sea of bamboos.
He turned around and a cold glint flashed in his eyes. He said to the clouds behind him, "Why are you following behind me?"
As soon as Ning Fan finished speaking, the flowing cloud behind him did not move at all. It seemed like the three hidden assassins did not intend to expose themselves.
Ning Fan did not say another word. He took a step forward and stepped on the vast sky with great force!
After he took that step, the sky within five hundred thousand kilometers suddenly trembled, and behind the clouds, three men immediately fell out in a sorry state.
All three of them were clad in blood-colored armor, and each of them was riding on an illusory blood tiger.
The Blood Tiger was a divine ability unique to the Bai Li Clan. By transforming the Blood Tiger into a mount, it could greatly increase the speed of the clansmen.
"We've been discovered! Kill him!"
Even though Ning Fan had seen through them, the three of them did not seem surprised at all. Instead, their expressions remained cold and indifferent.
The two Void Glimpse Stage assassins urged the blood tigers they were riding on. Each of them held a blood-colored banner and waved it abruptly. Immediately, the vast sky was filled with bloody light which reeked of blood.
After releasing the blood light, the two Void Glimpse Stage assassins lost their life force rapidly. Their faces aged rapidly.
The Void Inquiry Stage assassin leaped down from the blood tiger and into the blood light. He formed a seal with his ten fingers and suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood essence. Then, he fiercely absorbed the blood light in the sky.
Unlike the two Void Glimpse Stage assassins, this Void Inquiry Stage assassin's aura force rose sharply after he swallowed the blood light. His aura force which was originally unrivalled among Void Inquiry Stage cultivators rose to the Void Pierce Stage at this moment!
"Kill!"
The Void Inquiry Stage assassin shouted coldly. He took a step forward and four Void Inquiry Stage blood shadow clones suddenly separated from his body. Each of them held a magic treasure and rushed towards Ning Fan at the same time like rays of light!
Ning Fan's eyes turned slightly cold. This Void Inquiry Stage assassin's abilities were not weak. With this secret technique that could raise his cultivation base and his four Void Inquiry Stage clones, even ordinary Void Pierce Stage experts would not be his match!
Unfortunately, this Void Inquiry Stage assassin was still not Ning Fan's match!
Ning Fan lifted one of his feet and a sea of void immediately appeared beneath his feet!
He lifted his finger and pointed. One million Lesser Void Swords swept across the sky. With just a single move, he killed all four of the blood shadow clones of the Void Inquiry Stage assassin!
The Void Inquiry Stage assassin's eyes were filled with shock. Only then did he realize that the cultivation level of the assassin this time did not match the information he received!
According to the information, Ning Fan was just a Void Inquiry Stage cultivator!
Ning Fan, on the other hand, was stepping on his Void Sea of Qi. His Absolute Void aura force was soaring. He was obviously an Absolute Void Stage old monster!
He wanted to escape, but it was too late. Millions of Lesser Void Swords slashed down, and he screamed as he perished in the rain of Void Swords.
As for the other two Void Glimpse Stage assassins who had aged, they also died under the Little Void Sword …
With Ning Fan's current cultivation base, he could instantly kill a Void Pierce Stage expert with just a raise of his hand!
The blood light and sword shadows that filled the sky faded away. The vast sky gradually turned silent.
Ning Fan looked at the empty sky and frowned slightly.
When he used the Lesser Void Swords, he avoided the vital dantians of the three assassins, intending to kill their primordial spirits and demon souls to search their souls and memories.
However, after the three assassins died, there was no primordial spirit or demon soul left behind. They did not even leave behind a storage pouch. It was really strange …
"Did I use too much force and accidentally kill their primordial spirits under the rain of swords …?"
Ning Fan pondered for a moment. Then, he turned around and was about to leave. At this moment, three rays of blood light suddenly appeared at the place where the three assassins died.
The three rays of blood light merged into one and turned into a blood-red battle invitation …
Ning Fan bent his palm and waved, drawing the battle invitation into his hand.
There was only one word written in blood and ink on the battle invitation … 'Die'!
This was the second battle invitation that the clan leader of the Bai Li Clan gave to Ning Fan!
Ning Fan's eyes flashed with contemplation. This jade slip was formed from three traces of blood light. The three traces of blood light were planted in the bodies of three assassins. Only when all three of them die would the blood light condense into the second letter of challenge …
Could it be that the clan leader of the Bai Li Clan already knew that Ning Fan had the strength to kill the three assassins?
Was that why the clan leader planted three rays of blood light in the bodies of the three assassins and left a second battle invitation behind?
However, there were some parts that did not make sense.
Since the Bai Li Clan sent three assassins to assassinate Ning Fan, they naturally had the intention to kill him.
If the clan leader of the Bai Li Clan already knew that Ning Fan would not be killed by the three assassins, why would he send the three assassins to their deaths? The wisest move would be to send stronger cultivators to kill Ning Fan instead of taking the unnecessary step of leaving a second battle invitation …
What was the meaning of this second battle invitation? Could it be that he wanted to show off to Ning Fan again, telling him that if the Bai Li Clan wants to kill him, he should just wash his neck and wait for his death?
As the leader of the clan, would the clan leader of the Bai Li Clan do such a brainless thing?
The actions of the clan leader of the Bai Li Clan were extremely illogical …
Ning Fan kept the second battle invitation and his eyes narrowed slightly. There was something strange about this Bai Li Clan …
It seemed like the Bai Li Clan did not simply want to kill him. Instead, they seemed to be plotting something …
The reason why the clan leader of the Bai Li Clan sent out two unreasonable battle invitations in succession seemed to be to purposely arouse Ning Fan's suspicion … Instead of saying that it was a threat, it was more like he was hinting at something …
"Interesting. I would like to see what exactly the Bai Li Clan is plotting against me!"
The corner of Ning Fan's mouth curled upwards. He was not afraid of the Bai Li Clan at all.
He had the Five Elements Heavenly Tribulation Puppet, Luo You and Teng Xianrou's help and Emperor Xia's Sword … In the Tree World, other than the three tree sovereigns, Ning Fan was not afraid of any other cultivators!
* Chi *
Ning Fan's figure flashed and turned into a ray of light, flying towards the capital of the Mu Ye Country.
The Mu Ye Country was a few times bigger than an ordinary Void Grade Cultivation Country. There were a total of more than four hundred cultivation cities in the country. There were more than three hundred members of the Tree Clan residing in the country.
Among them, there were a total of twenty-three Tree Clans that had Void Refinement Realm experts. As for the Tree Clan that had Great Void Refinement Realm experts, there were a total of seven of them.
The Bai Li Clan was the strongest clan in the Mu Ye Country. Of course, the force that was even stronger than the Bai Li Clan was the Bamboo Hall!
In the Bamboo Hall, other than the Bamboo Sovereign, there were also the Eight Elders of the Bamboo Forest. All of them were Void Fragmentation Realm old monsters and Old Demon Fusang was one of them!
The main hall of the Bamboo Hall was located in the Jishui City of the Mu Ye Country!
Ning Fan flew all the way, passing through countless cultivation cities. Finally, he stopped outside the Jishui City.
It was a city that was rarely seen in the Tree World. The area within one million li * (500m per li) was covered with a green water body. It was called Jishui City!
Countless gigantic Xiang Fei Bamboos stood in the water body. According to legends, Jishui City was the place where the Bamboo Ancestor passed away. The Xiang Fei Bamboos that grew in the water body were all transformed from the Bamboo Ancestor's soul.
In the sky above the water body, there was a floating city that was enshrouded in green qi. It was none other than Jishui City!
At this moment, the Bamboo Sovereign had already issued an order to the entire Tree World, summoning all the pill refinement masters in the world to come to Mu Ye Country to treat the Ancestral Bamboo.
Traveling lights could be seen flying towards Jishui City at any time in the sky. Most of them were famous pill refinement masters in the Tree World who had come to treat the Ancestral Bamboo.
Most of these pill refinement masters belonged to the Eastern Tree Sea. Of course, there were also pill refinement masters from the Northern, Western and Southern Tree Seas.
During this period of time, the entrance inspection of Jishui City had become extremely strict. Other than Fifth Revolution Pill Refinement Masters who had the right to enter the city directly, even Absolute Void Stage cultivators had to go through a strict inspection before they were allowed to enter the city.
Ning Fan pondered inwardly. Since the Eastern Tree Sea was summoning pill refinement masters from all over the world, many cultivators from other Tree Seas had entered the Eastern Tree Sea.
He was not sure if the Vine Sovereign's subordinates had followed the crowd and entered the Eastern Tree Sea to assassinate him.
Moreover, the Vine Sovereign's subordinates might have already infiltrated Jishui City and were waiting to kill him.
If that was the case, he needed to be more cautious during his trip to Jishui City.
Ning Fan stepped on the traveling light and flew towards the city in the sky.
As soon as he arrived outside the city gate, a group of guards wearing bamboo armors immediately blocked his way with their spears.
"Stop right there! Except for Fifth Revolution Pill Refinement Masters who can enter the city directly, all cultivators who enter the city will have to undergo the inspection of our Bamboo Hall to verify their identities! "
The weakest of the guards was a Soul Formation cultivator, and their leader was a Great Void Stage old monster.
This person's gaze was extremely arrogant, and his status in the Bamboo Hall was not low. He was a descendant of the Bamboo Hall's Third Elder.
He was sitting high above the city gate tower of Ji Shui City and he was not even willing to personally go down to the city to receive Ning Fan. How arrogant!
Even though he could sense Ning Fan's hidden Absolute Void Qi, he did not intend to accommodate him. He did not have the intention to let Ning Fan enter the city directly.
This time, Bamboo Emperor was recruiting alchemists from all over the world. Many Great Void Old Monsters came to Jishui City to join in the fun. There were Great Void Old Monsters coming to Jishui City every day.
The higher the cultivation base of an old monster, the more strict the identity check would be to prevent these people from sneaking into Jishui City and causing trouble … This was the order of the Third Elder of Bamboo Palace!
"Your cultivation isn't weak, but as long as you're not an alchemist, you must allow us to verify your identity!" Commander Tai Xu said coldly.
"I am a pill refinement master. The reason why I came to Jishui this time is to treat Zu Zhu." Ning Fan replied indifferently.
"Oh? You're a pill refinement master? In that case, let's test the level of your pill refinement mastery on this soul stele. If your pill refinement mastery has reached the Fifth Revolution, you can enter Jishui City directly. I won't stop you then. "
When Commander Tai Xu heard that Ning Fan was a pill refinement master, he stood on the city gate tower and pointed at a gigantic six-colored ancient stele outside the city gate.
This six-colored ancient stele could test one's pill refinement mastery from the First to the Sixth Revolution. The highest one could test one's Mid Grade Sixth Revolution pill refinement mastery.
Ning Fan did not say much. He slowly approached the six-colored ancient stele and placed his palm on it. Immediately, he felt a mysterious feeling of his medicine soul merging with the stele.
He did not plan to conceal his High Grade Sixth Revolution pill refinement mastery after entering Jishui City this time.
Even though he was an Absolute Void Stage cultivator, Absolute Void Stage cultivators were just ants in the eyes of Void Fragmentation Realm old monsters like the Bamboo Emperor.
However, if the Void Fragmentation Realm old monsters in the Bamboo Palace knew that his pill refinement mastery had reached the Sixth Revolution and it was even a High Grade Sixth Revolution pill refinement master, no one would dare to underestimate him!
A Low Grade Sixth Revolution pill refinement master already had a status that even Void Fragmentation Realm cultivators would have to bow down to!
As for a High Grade Sixth Revolution pill refinement master, even the Bamboo Emperor would not dare to underestimate him!
The reason why the Bamboo Emperor was polite to Ning Fan when they were in the Thinking Sifting Bamboo Sea that day was because he could vaguely see that Ning Fan possessed a Sixth Revolution pill refinement master.
However, in the Bamboo Emperor's eyes, Ning Fan was just a Low Grade Sixth Revolution pill refinement master at most. Therefore, even though he was polite to Ning Fan, his tone was still very indifferent …
Even when he promised to give Ning Fan the Tree Ancestor Fruits, he used a casual tone.
"Even though there aren't enough Tree Ancestor Fruits in the Bamboo Palace for me to attain the First Grade Rain Intent, the more Tree Ancestor Fruits I obtain, the closer I will be to attaining the First Grade Rain Intent … In order to obtain more Tree Ancestor Fruits from the Bamboo Emperor, the first thing I need to do is to gain enough attention from the Bamboo Emperor!"
"If the Bamboo Emperor knows that my pill refinement mastery has reached the High Grade Sixth Revolution, he certainly won't look down on me anymore! If I ask him for more Tree Ancestor Fruits, he probably won't reject me! "
* Huff *
Ning Fan's body suddenly emitted an extremely strong medicine soul aura force!
In the vast sky outside Jishui City, countless black butterflies suddenly appeared!
Many pill refinement masters from the Tree World who had just arrived outside Jishui City wore astonished expressions when they saw the black butterflies coiling around Ning Fan's body.
The Great Void Realm commander who was arrogant just now also wore a shocked expression when he saw the black butterflies that filled the sky.
"These black butterflies are formed by the medicine soul power … Could it be that this man is actually a Sixth Revolution Pill Refinement Master?!"
As if to prove everyone's speculation, layers of colors on the six-colored ancient stele lit up one after another.
One color, two colors, three colors, four colors, five colors and six colors!
When six colors were lit up, it meant that the person who came was a Sixth Revolution Pill Refinement Master!
"My tone just now was not friendly. Please forgive me, Grandmaster! You are a Sixth Revolution Pill Refinement Master and you can directly enter Jishui City … "
The Great Void Realm commander immediately walked down the city gate tower. He no longer wore his arrogant expression. He cupped his fists at Ning Fan and showed a rare polite expression.
He could be arrogant toward the Great Void Realm commander who was at the same level as him but he did not dare to be arrogant toward a Sixth Revolution Pill Refinement Master!
Every Sixth Revolution Pill Refinement Master was qualified to be a distinguished guest of a Void Fragmentation Realm old monster!
Just as he was about to personally lead the way for Ning Fan to enter the city to rest, something happened to the six-colored ancient stele all of a sudden!
The sixth color on the ancient tablet became brighter and brighter. In the end, the entire ancient tablet was like a six-colored rainbow, emitting a dazzling light that shot into the sky.
This phenomenon would only appear when a Mid Sixth Revolution Pill Refinement Master was testing his pill refinement mastery!
"What? This grandmaster is not only a Sixth Revolution Pill Master but also a Mid Sixth Revolution Pill Master!"
Commander Great Void was even more shocked now.
In the four seas of trees, there were a total of 15 Sixth Revolution Pill Masters. Among them, there were 7 Low Grade Sixth Revolution Pill Masters, 5 Mid Grade Sixth Revolution Pill Masters and 3 High Grade Sixth Revolution Pill Masters …
Could it be that Ning Fan is one of the five Mid Grade Sixth Revolution Pill Masters in the Tree World?
He had never met all of the Sixth Revolution Pill Refinement Masters before. Thus, he did not know which of the five Sixth Revolution Pill Refinement Masters Ning Fan was.
While he was thinking, the six-colored ancient tablet changed again!
All of a sudden, huge cracks appeared on the surface of the ancient tablet. In the end, the entire ancient tablet exploded and turned into countless pieces of rubble!
The six-colored ancient tablet was broken!
In the sky above the entire Jishui City, six-colored clouds suddenly appeared. All the cultivators in the city could see the colorful clouds!
There was only one explanation for this … Ning Fan's pill refinement mastery had exceeded the highest limit that the ancient tablet could test!
"This grandmaster is actually a High Grade Sixth Revolution Pill Master!"
There were only three pill refinement masters of this level in the Tree World!
Even the Bamboo Sovereign would not dare to neglect a pill refinement master of this level!
Outside the city gates, all the cultivators who witnessed the destruction of the ancient tablet revealed a shocked expression.
Everyone looked at Ning Fan with deep respect as if they were looking at a Void Fragmentation Realm old monster!
"Now, can I enter Jishui City?"
Ning Fan gave Commander Tai Xu a meaningful look. Commander Tai Xu forced a smile and said politely. "Grandmaster's pill refinement mastery is outstanding. Of course, you can enter and leave Jishui City as you wish … However, may I be so bold as to ask what grandmaster's name is? Which one of the three High Grade Sixth Revolution Pill Masters in the Tree World are you?"
Ning Fan had always addressed himself with the surname Lu. This was the only thing that puzzled Commander Tai Xu.
Among the Low Grade Sixth Revolution and Mid Grade Sixth Revolution Pill Masters in the Tree World, there were two brothers with the surname Lu.
However, none of the three High Grade Sixth Revolution Pill Masters had the surname Lu …
"I am from the Ming Luo Clan. My name is Lu Bei."
As soon as Ning Fan finished speaking, he walked into Jishui City, leaving behind the astonished cultivators outside the city.
"Lu Bei … Moreover, he is from the declining Ming Luo Clan … This grandmaster is actually not one of the three High Grade Sixth Revolution Pill Masters! He is the fourth pill refinement master in the Tree World who possesses High Grade Sixth Revolution Pill Refinement Mastery! "
"This grandmaster's name sounds a little familiar … Lu Bei … Lu Bei … Wait, I remember now! This person's name and appearance are obviously the devil cultivator that the Vine Sovereign is chasing after! I came from the Northern Tree Sea and I have seen this person's wanted order with my own eyes! "
"What?! This grandmaster is actually the devil cultivator that the Vine Sovereign is chasing after?! "
Ning Fan ignored the discussions of the crowd and walked into Jishui City alone.
The moment he stepped into the city, he immediately sensed countless obscure spirit sense sweeping towards him. Obviously, the fluctuation of his pill refinement mastery test had startled many old monsters in the city.
In the vast sky, an Agarwood Chariot approached him from afar. It was pulled by two green divine bulls. There were twelve children standing on the chariot and an elderly man with green pupils sitting at the center.
That elderly man's aura force was very restrained. He vaguely gave off the aura force of a First Heavenly Layer Void Fragmentation Realm expert.
The chariot landed in front of Ning Fan. The elderly man got off the chariot with a smile and cupped his fists at Ning Fan politely.
"I am the third elder of the Bamboo Palace. Under the order of the Bamboo Sovereign, I have come here to welcome Fellow Daoist to the Bamboo Palace to meet him!"
This time, the Bamboo Sovereign had witnessed Ning Fan's pill refinement mastery. His attitude was no longer as cold as before.
The Bamboo Sovereign had even sent the third elder who was at the Void Fragmentation Realm to personally welcome Ning Fan into the Bamboo Palace!
His respect for Ning Fan could be seen from this!
This was the status of a High Grade Sixth Revolution Pill Master. Even the Bamboo Sovereign had to treat him as a distinguished guest! (To be continued.)
