As soon as the silver-haired giant gave the order, he immediately raised the ancient jade in the sky and performed hand seals with all his might to unlock the power of the ancient jade.
Ning Fan glanced at it and narrowed his eyes. It was a piece of five-colored ancient jade. It was an incomplete piece of broken jade. He could not tell what kind of material it was made of. It looked very old and there were some cracks on it.
This ancient jade did not have the qi of a magic treasure. On the surface, it looked like an ordinary item. It did not look like a magic treasure.
However, as the silver-haired giant performed hand seals, the ancient jade gradually emitted an extremely terrifying and strange qi!
Sometimes, it was as cold as ice. Sometimes, it was as hot as fire. Sometimes, it was as hard as wood. Sometimes, it was as heavy as earth. Sometimes, it was as sharp as gold …
The qi changed rapidly and the five elements gradually merged into one … At this moment, Ning Fan felt a sense of danger from the ancient jade.
Even though it had been tens of thousands of years, the ancient jade still gave Ning Fan a strong sense of danger!
Something was sealed inside the ancient jade … It was something extremely dangerous!
* Shriek *
White Bone Nie Li and Nine-headed Nie Li attacked him from both sides. Each of them launched their attacks at Ning Fan.
After the first attack, the two beasts immediately fled far away. After accumulating power, they launched another attack.
Of course, the two beasts could not hurt Ning Fan and the Evil Li. Their goal was just to delay Ning Fan for ten breaths of time so that the silver-haired giant could unlock the ancient jade.
The two beasts had the cultivation bases of the Third and Fourth Destruction Realm. Even though they were not a match for the Evil Li, they could still delay him for ten breaths of time if they put up a desperate fight.
"Even though I don't know what exactly is sealed inside the ancient jade, I can't let Wan Changkong unlock it since it can give me a sense of danger!"
The demon star in Ning Fan's left eye flashed. A trace of ancestral Fu Li bloodline aura force spread across the entire void space!
It was the aura force of four drops of ancestral Fu Li blood!
Under such a level of aura force, White Bone Evil Li and Nine-headed Evil Li panicked and did not know what to do. Their qi was being suppressed. Their demon power seemed to have been sealed, weakening rapidly!
White Bone Evil Li's qi dropped from the Third Destruction Realm to the Absolute Void Realm!
Nine-headed Evil Li's qi also dropped from the Fourth Destruction Realm to the First Destruction Realm!
Even the depths of the two beasts' souls were trembling! Before this, they only knew that Ning Fan was a Fu Li. However, they did not know that he was actually a Fu Li with ancestral blood!
The Royal Blood Fu Li could control the Sin Seal and easily kill any Sin Li.
The ancestral blood of Fu Li could greatly weaken the cultivation of any Sin Li with just the pressure of its bloodline!
"This is … Ancestral Blood Demon Blood Pressure! Impossible! Lu Bei is actually an Ancestral Blood Demon Cultivator! "
"What kind of demon blood is this? I've never heard of it before! It isn't any of the Demon Race that I know of, and it isn't even from the Xin Li Clan, yet it can greatly reduce Xin Li's cultivation. Why?! "
The silver-haired giant was greatly alarmed, but he fiercely bit the tip of his tongue and spat out blood essence in order to speed up the process of unsealing the ancient jade.
Now, the cultivation bases of the two Life Puppets had already weakened. Not to mention stopping Ning Fan for ten breaths, they could not even stop him for one breath.
If he didn't have enough time to unseal the ancient jade and release the item sealed within it, he would certainly die in Ning Fan's hands today!
Not fast enough, the unsealing of the ancient jade was still not fast enough!
The silver-haired giant ignited his Mournful Death Blood. He did not hesitate to burn his demonic veins to speed up the unsealing of the ancient jade!
"Five breaths, no, three breaths! Just give me three breaths. Three breaths! I will then be able to release the 'Ancient Mournful Puppet String' within this Ancient Mournful Heavenly Jade. Then, I can easily capture the five Xin Li puppets and turn the situation around! "
"Three breaths. Give me three breaths!"
Unfortunately, he was destined to not have three breaths of time to unseal the ancient jade. Ning Fan would not even give him two breaths!
At the moment when he released the ancestral blood pressure and weakened the cultivation bases of the two Life Puppets, the purple-eyed Xin Li had already received Ning Fan's order. It immediately spread out black rays that covered the entire sky and turned the two Xin Li into ashes!
Two Sin Li beasts died. The former's cultivation was condensed into 8 Sin Fruits by the Sin Seal, while the latter's cultivation was condensed into 12 Sin Fruits by the Sin Seal.
To Ning Fan who possessed the ancestral blood, each of the evil fruits was equivalent to a Void Fragmentation Realm Dao Fruit.
However, Ning Fan did not have the time to collect these evil fruits at all.
Without any hesitation, he rode on the purple-eyed Xin Li and turned into a gust of demonic wind, dashing towards the silver-haired giant. Before the second breath arrived, he had already arrived in front of the silver-haired giant and launched an attack.
The purple-eyed Xin Li flapped its wings and spread out black rays of light that covered the entire sky, sweeping towards the silver-haired giant.
Even though the rays of light were as light as a feather, the silver-haired giant's sternum was immediately crushed. It was as if he had been hit by Mount Tai. His finger seals to unseal the ancient jade were forcefully stopped.
The light of the ancient jade gradually dimmed and turned back into an ordinary broken piece of jade. Just like the twenty evil fruits, it floated in the boundless void space.
Ning Fan heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that the light of the ancient jade had dimmed. It would be best if he could stop the silver-haired giant from unsealing the ancient jade in time.
The silver-haired giant stepped on the void space while holding his chest with one of his hands. He only managed to stabilize his body after retreating ten thousand li * (500m per li).
The silver-haired giant showed a pained expression as he lost the ancient jade ten thousand li * (500m per li) away. However, he gritted his teeth and directly gave up on picking up the ancient jade. With a flash of light, he fled in a hurry.
I've lost … This time, I've been utterly defeated. I even lost the ancient jade. It is no longer possible for me to be a match for the purple-eyed Xin Li. I must run.
Seeing that the silver-haired giant was about to turn around and flee, Ning Fan patted his storage pouch and summoned the fire puppet with a wave of his hand, ordering it to pick up the ancient jade and all the evil fruits.
As for himself, he rode the Xin Li and continued to chase after the silver-haired giant.
Currently, the silver-haired giant had even ignited his Mournful Death Devil Veins. Thus, his speed of fleeing was extremely fast. It was not any slower than the purple-eyed Xin Li.
However, as his devil veins gradually burned out, his speed gradually decreased. In the end, Ning Fan caught up to him after he had fled for hundreds of millions of li * (500m per li).
At this moment, the silver-haired giant was already on the verge of death. He stared at Ning Fan who was blocking his path with an extremely resentful expression.
"Lu Bei! Lu Bei! Lu Bei!!! Why do you want to kill me?! You've gone too far! You've gone too far!!! If you didn't have the help of the Broken Five Evil Li, do you think I'll be afraid of a mere junior of the Absolute Void Stage like you?! You're just a useless person who assumes the might of a tiger! If I … "
Before he could finish his words, Ning Fan showed a mocking expression. With a flash of light, he rode the purple-eyed Xin Li and moved one hundred li * (500m per li) to the side.
At the void space where Ning Fan was originally standing, a massive door of light suddenly appeared.
Countless mechanical war chariots flew out from the light door. The spirit crossbows inside the war chariots fired at the same time. Millions of spirit arrows were shot at Ning Fan. Each of the spirit arrows was powerful enough to kill a Gold Core Realm cultivator!
Even a Void Fragmentation Realm cultivator would die directly if they are careless when facing the joint attack of millions of spirit arrows!
Even at this stage, the silver-haired giant's mind was still cunning. He still had the intention of launching a sneak attack on Ning Fan.
He purposely fled hundreds of millions of li * (500m per li) away in order to launch a sneak attack when Ning Fan was careless.
Even when he was at the end of his rope, he was still unwilling to bow down and wait for his death.
Unfortunately, Ning Fan had his guard up against him. It was impossible for him to fall into his trap.
It's really a pity that all these millions of spirit arrows missed their target …
"Aren't you going to run anymore? Or are you going to launch a sneak attack on me for the third time? "Ning Fan's sneer carried a hint of mockery.
"Humph! I'm not going to run anymore. I'm going to perish together with you! Thousand Puppets, Appear! "
The body of the silver-haired giant's spiritual puppet suddenly shattered. He exited his giant form and turned into the appearance of a silver-haired elderly man. He was none other than Wan Changkong.
Wan Changkong pointed his finger and more than forty light doors appeared in front of him out of nowhere. Twenty to thirty Void Refinement Realm spiritual puppets walked out of each light door.
These spiritual puppets were different from the Life Puppets. All of them were Death Puppets which were the most common spiritual puppets in the cultivation world.
Some of them were refined from plants and wood, some were refined from spiritual ores, some were made from clay, some were made from ice and some were made from human corpses …
There were a total of 1023 spiritual puppets in this place and each of them was at the Void Inquiry Stage!
These 1023 spiritual puppets were the parts that made up Wan Changkong's body!
Including Wan Changkong himself, there were 1024 spiritual puppets in total!
Other than the Life Puppet Technique, Wan Changkong also inherited a magic technique from the Ancient Mourning Heavenly Jade. It was called the Vajra Body Fusion Technique.
The main purpose of this technique was to let the cultivators of the Mourning Death Devil Vein cultivate themselves into spiritual puppets. After that, they would refine a large number of Death Puppets. Through merging with the Death Puppets, they would obtain a powerful physical body that was far beyond their own cultivation realm.
The reason why Wan Changkong's physical body could reach the Fifth Heavenly Layer of the Nirvana Realm was because he had merged with the 1023 Void Inquiry Stage spiritual puppets.
Now that he had unlocked the Body Fusion Technique, he could naturally summon the 1023 Void Inquiry Stage spiritual puppets to fight for him.
Wan Changkong's eyes flashed with crazy killing intent. He performed a hand seal and the Void Inquiry Stage spiritual puppets immediately soared into the sky, surrounding Ning Fan. As soon as they got close to him, they immediately exploded!
In just a few breaths, nearly two hundred Void Inquiry Stage spiritual puppets had already exploded!
When nearly two hundred Void Inquiry Stage spiritual puppets exploded at the same time, the resulting shockwave was enough to kill Ning Fan instantly.
She opened her mouth and swallowed all the shockwave of the explosion into her abdomen, afraid that Ning Fan would be hurt. However, he was unscathed.
Ning Fan, on the other hand, was unscathed. Her internal organs, on the other hand, were injured from the inside out.
If she did not protect Ning Fan, she would not be hurt.
This was the first time she got hurt since she broke the seal. Her qi became a little chaotic.
"Haha! The five broken Void Inquiry Stage spiritual puppets are nothing more than this. You are still hurt by the explosion of my spiritual puppets, aren't you?!" Wan Changkong became even more excited.
I don't want them anymore. I can give up on these Void Inquiry Stage spiritual puppets. I don't want any of them!
Even though the spiritual puppets are precious, his life is more important. If he cannot escape from today's calamity, everything else would just be empty talk!
"I don't believe that even one thousand Void Inquiry Stage spiritual puppets can't kill all of you! Explode! Explode! Explode!!! "Wan Changkong laughed ferociously.
Ning Fan's eyes turned cold. Originally, he had a way to escape into the small chiliocosm and avoid the explosion of these spiritual puppets.
She did not know that he had a way to protect himself. That was why she was willing to risk getting hurt to protect him.
Ning Fan did not know what kind of motive she had that made her submit to him, listen to his orders and protect him.
However, when he saw that she wanted to protect him even if it meant hurting herself, he found it hard to calm down.
"You should take a rest. This Wan Changkong is already an arrow at the end of its flight. I can kill him myself!"
"Even if there are ten times more Void Inquiry Stage spiritual puppets, they will still pose no threat to me now! None of the spiritual puppets in the billions of worlds can take my life. All of you will become my prisoners! I will imprison your life with a single finger! "
Ning Fan, who was dressed in black robes, flashed and disappeared from the top of Nie Li's head. When he reappeared, he was standing in front of the eight hundred Void Inquiry Stage spiritual puppets.
His long hair danced wildly in the air. A pitch-black crescent moon slowly appeared in his left eye.
At the moment when the crescent moon appeared, the connection between the eight hundred spiritual puppets and Wan Changkong was cut off. Each of the spiritual puppets stopped moving in the void space with blank expressions, not knowing what to do next.
Then, the mark of a black moon slowly appeared on the bodies of the spiritual puppets.
At the moment when the mark of the black moon appeared, the eight hundred spiritual puppets instantly changed sides and became Ning Fan's Void Inquiry Stage spiritual puppets!
In the void space, the eight hundred spiritual puppets bowed to Ning Fan at the same time to show their allegiance!
"Black … Black Moon Divine Ability! This is the power of the Black Moon Divine Ability! With just a single divine ability, it can directly deprive me of the right to control the eight hundred Void Inquiry Stage spiritual puppets. What a domineering magic technique! "
"If you encounter the black moon, you will be destroyed if you go against it! If you encounter the black moon, you will be destroyed if you go against it!!! As a spiritual puppet master and a member of the Dao Wang Clan, no one can go against the black moon!!! "
Wan Changkong looked at the scene in front of him as if he had gone mad. His eyes were filled with unwillingness.
He had spent his entire life killing to obtain his current status and that was how he refined these Void Inquiry Stage spiritual puppets.
However, in the blink of an eye, all of these spiritual puppets were taken away by Ning Fan … Why?!
At this moment, Wan Changkong released the Body of Giant Venomous Snake. His physical body was no longer as strong as before.
At this moment, Wan Changkong only had the cultivation base of the First Heavenly Layer of the Void Fragmentation Realm. However, he was severely injured and on the verge of death.
Even so, he was unwilling to die here. He was unwilling!
"If you spare my life, I will be your puppet and your slave. I will help you kill the Vine Sovereign! With my Vajra Body Fusion Technique, I can fuse thousands of puppets into my body. After that, my physical body will be comparable to a Fifth Heavenly Layer Nirvana Realm cultivator. Even the Vine Sovereign won't be my match! "Wan Changkong begged for mercy.
Ning Fan approached Wan Changkong step by step and said coldly. "No need. Even if I need a strong expert to be my slave, I won't look for you. It's because I don't believe you at all! "
* Bang *
Ning Fan's body suddenly shattered into traces of black shadows that drifted away.
At the moment when his physical body shattered, a silver door of light appeared in the void space where he was just a moment ago.
This time, four Void Fragmentation Realm cannons shot out from the light door, trying to blast Ning Fan into pieces.
Fortunately, Ning Fan dispersed his physical body in time and managed to avoid this attack by a hair's breadth.
This was Wan Changkong's third sneak attack. Even until the last moment, he would still bite back. Ning Fan must not be careless.
Even if a restriction is planted on him and his memories are erased, he would still be a disaster!
"You won't have the chance to sneak attack me for the fourth time … You can die now!"
The black shadows condensed and Ning Fan appeared behind Wan Changkong. He raised his hand and a ray of golden sword light cut Wan Changkong's head into two.
The treacherous and ruthless Wan Changkong had truly fallen.
The thirteenth trace of his spirit clone that he secretly cultivated tried to escape but it was discovered by Ning Fan who coldly searched his soul and memories.
The moment Wan Changkong died, all the cultivators who were turned into puppets in the entire Eastern Tree Sea began to turn into ashes and dissipate.
It was not just the Eastern Tree Sea. Even some cultivators in the other three great tree seas began to turn into ashes and dissipate.
These people were also Wan Changkong's puppets. They were the spies that he had planted.
If it wasn't for Ning Fan who killed Wan Changkong, these spies would probably never show up.
After Ning Fan searched his soul, he breathed out devil flames and burned Wan Changkong's corpse into ashes. Only then did he confirm that he was dead.
He took away Wan Changkong's storage pouch and the eight hundred spiritual puppets. Then, he returned to the top of Nie Li's head and drove it back to find the Zhi Huo puppet.
Zhi Huo had already followed Ning Fan's order and found the ancient jade and the twenty evil fruits and handed them to Ning Fan.
In this battle, Ning Fan obtained a total of 27 evil fruits. To others, this fruit was a poisonous fruit that would cause them to suffer a backlash. To Ning Fan, however, it was a great supplement which was equivalent to a Void Fragmentation Realm Dao Fruit.
Ning Fan kept the evil fruits and carefully studied the five-colored ancient jade. The more he looked at it, the more shocked he became.
From Wan Changkong's memories, Ning Fan learned that this five-colored ancient jade was called the Mourning Ancient Heavenly Jade. It could help cultivators open up the Mourning Death Devil Veins and obtain a few secret techniques of the Mourning Death Clan.
Among those secret techniques were the Life Puppet Technique and the Vajra Body Fusion Technique.
Inside this Mourning Ancient Heavenly Jade, there was a thread that was sealed.
It was a puppet thread. It was the Life Puppet Thread that was once used by the Mourning Ancestor!
This thread possessed a great ability. With this thread, one could refine a puppet that was one level higher than him once!
Ning Fan could not help but feel shocked. If he was a little slower in his actions and allowed Wan Changkong to unseal this thread, he would probably directly refine himself into a puppet.
If he was not forced into a dead end, Wan Changkong would not use this thread. Originally, he planned to use this thread to capture a rogue immortal as a puppet and roam the Nine Worlds …
Wan Changkong was a Void Void Realm cultivator. With this thread, he could capture a rogue immortal as a puppet.
Ning Fan was an Absolute Void Realm cultivator. With this thread, he could at least capture a Sixth or Seventh Heavenly Layer Void Fragmentation Realm cultivator as a puppet. He could even try to capture an Eighth Heavenly Layer cultivator …
"I wonder if I can use the puppet thread of the Mourning Ancestor to refine a rogue immortal into a puppet …"
In the past, Ning Fan had been thinking about how to control a rogue immortal. However, he had never thought about refining a rogue immortal into a puppet.
Now that he had obtained the puppet thread of the Mourning Ancestor, he could change his train of thought. If he directly refines a rogue immortal into a puppet, it would be much easier and safer than using the Devil Subduing Hoop to control it.
"This is feasible. However, for the sake of safety, I will try to use this thread to subdue the rogue immortal after making thorough preparations …"
"Now … It's time to end the grudge between me and the Vine Sovereign!"
...
In Jishui City, each of the puppets that caused trouble turned into ashes and vanished. The chaos in the city ended just like that.
Looking at Jishui City which was gradually calming down, the Vine Sovereign was shocked.
"All the puppets have disappeared. What's going on?!"
* Rumble *
In Jishui City, the space was suddenly shattered.
A black-robed young man stepped on the purple-eyed evil creature and flew out of the crack in the void, returning to the battlefield of Jishui City.
At the moment when the purple-eyed evil creature reappeared, black rays of light immediately swept down from the sky.
At this moment, there were already many cultivators of the Vine Palace who had rushed to the battlefield to provide reinforcements. However, as the black rays of light swept across, all of the cultivators of the Vine Palace were turned into ashes.
The few remaining elders of the Vine Palace had either died in the hands of the two sovereigns or were killed by the black rays of light. Now, only a severely injured Void Fragmentation Realm cultivator had survived …
"Lu Bei has returned. Wan Changkong must be dead … We've lost this battle!" Old Monster Tian Fei's expression was extremely gloomy.
"Retreat!" The Vine Sovereign gritted her teeth and said.
The two of them each took out a jade slip and crushed it. Immediately, a huge realm gate appeared behind them.
Without any hesitation, the two of them leaped into their respective realm gates and escaped without a trace.
The escape jade slips of the two of them were actually the rain slips of the realm gate.
The direction they were fleeing to was not the West Tree Sea but the Heaven Immortal World!
The location of the Three Worlds Sect was exactly the Heaven Immortal World!
After the defeat this time, all the experts of the Vine Palace were killed. The Vine Sovereign herself was also severely injured. Naturally, she did not dare to stay in the Tree World to recuperate as she was afraid that Liu Haoyue would take revenge on her. Thus, she directly fled the Tree World.
"Where do you think you're going?!" A Void Fragmentation Realm cultivator of the Liu Palace was unwilling to let go of the Vine Sovereign and Old Monster Tian Fei.
Liu Haoyue wanted to stop that person but it was already too late.
Just as the Void Fragmentation Realm cultivator of the Liu Palace stepped into the realm gate, a ray of purple light suddenly rose from the realm gate and swept across the Void Fragmentation Realm cultivator of the Liu Palace.
That Void Fragmentation Realm old monster immediately let out a miserable shriek. He was directly turned into ashes by the purple light.
"The Realm Breaking Light!" The other Void Fragmentation Realm cultivators of the Liu Palace were shocked.
The escape jade slips of the Vine Sovereign and Old Monster Tian Fei actually had the Realm Breaking Light to protect the realm gate. With this light, anyone who enters the realm gate would be directly turned into ashes by the Realm Breaking Light.
"Pass my order. No one in the Liu Palace is allowed to enter the realm gate!" Liu Haoyue sighed and closed his eyes.
"Damn it! I actually let Teng Gunan escape! " The Bamboo Sovereign was enraged. The injury of his broken arm became even more painful. With a slap of his palm, he killed the last Void Fragmentation Realm cultivator of the Vine Palace who could not escape in time to vent the hatred in his heart.
Ning Fan stood on top of Nie Li's head in silence.
Currently, his magic power had been exhausted and the purple-eyed Nie Li had also suffered some injuries. Let alone the fact that the Realm Breaking Light was blocking them from entering the realm gate, even if they managed to chase after the Vine Sovereign, they might not have a hundred percent chance of killing the Vine Sovereign.
However, if he lets the Vine Sovereign go, she would certainly become a source of trouble!
Ning Fan pondered for a while. When he saw that there was only a faint layer of Realm Breaking Light outside the two realm gates, he immediately came up with an idea.
He patted his storage pouch and took out two hundred Void Inquiry Stage spiritual puppets. Then, he performed a hand seal. "Explode!"
The self-detonation of the two hundred Void Inquiry Stage spiritual puppets immediately blasted a hole in the thin layer of Realm Breaking Light outside the realm gate.
As soon as the hole appeared, Ning Fan rode on Nie Li and rushed into one of the two realm gates.
That realm gate was not the one that the heavenly birds used to escape from. Instead, it was the one that the Vine Sovereign used!
The moment Ning Fan rushed into the realm gate, the Realm Breaking Light outside the realm gate disappeared.
"Brother Lu has gone in?!" The Bamboo Sovereign found it hard to believe.
"Mm." Liu Haoyue answered casually. His eyes were filled with worry.
He was worried about Ning Fan's safety and whether he could successfully kill the Vine Sovereign.
In the past, he only admired Ning Fan's Dao Comprehension. Now, he admired Ning Fan's way of doing things even more. He did not want anything to happen to Ning Fan.
In the realm gate, the Vine Sovereign was flying towards the Heaven Immortal World with a gloomy expression. She would mutter to herself from time to time. "Lu Bei! You foiled my great plan and forced me to flee from the Tree World. I will remember this debt! The next time we meet will be the moment of your death! "
"Is that so?! We have already met again. I really want to see how you are going to kill me! Kill! "
Ning Fan's eyes turned cold and he ordered Nie Li to use the black light to attack.
The Vine Sovereign was already not a match for the purple-eyed girl Nie Li in the first place. Now that she was severely injured, how could she be a match for Ning Fan and Nie Li?
"Lu Bei, you can't kill me. You can't! If you let me go, the grudge between us will be written off. How about that?! "
"I don't believe you!"
"If you kill me, the Three Realms Sect will certainly not let you go!"
"If I don't kill you, will the Three Realms Sect let me go?!"
...
Three days later, in the Heaven Immortal World, the Vine Sovereign's corpse suddenly fell from the sky and crashed into the entrance of the Three Realms Sect.
The entire sect was shocked!
Old Monster Tian Hao who had just returned to the sect was even more terrified.
Someone actually chased him into the realm gate and killed the Vine Sovereign. Who was it?!
Fortunately, that person did not enter his realm gate. Otherwise, the one who died would not be the Vine Sovereign but him …
It was so close …
"Tian Hao! This Sect Master is asking you, who killed Du Yu! "A drawn-out voice suddenly sounded out from afar.
He did not ask the Vine Sovereign but Du Yu because to him, Du Yu was more useful than the Vine Sovereign! (To be continued.)
