Ning Fan used the Earth Escape Technique and dived all the way into the ground. He had no idea how long he had been travelling and how deep he had gone.
The soil around them gradually turned silver.
The pressure underground was getting stronger and stronger. Even if Guiyuan Taixu was here, it would be hard for him to move forward.
Continuing down, there were layers of silver formation lights blocking the way.
In front of the formation light, there was an empty space with a silver platform.
Ning Fan withdrew his travelling light and landed on the platform. He stared at the silver formation light in front of him with a thoughtful expression.
In front of the platform, there was a huge silver door of light that was heavily sealed.
The level of that formation light was very high. It had surpassed the Immortal Realm. It was not something that Ning Fan could break.
However, this formation light was very old, and it was covered in cracks. If it was forcefully broken, it wasn't impossible.
However, once it was broken, the countless devils suppressed inside would escape to the outside world and wreak havoc in the Rain World.
On the other side of the door of light was the forbidden area.
Outside the door of light were twenty-four statues of silver stone lions.
The moment Ning Fan approached the door of light, the stone eyes of the twenty-four silver stone lions turned to him with gurgling sounds. Their eyes were filled with killing intent!
"Only … the … Master … of … the … Rain … Palace … Cannot … Enter … The … Forbidden! Quickly … retreat! "All the stone lions gave the order in a low voice.
All of these twenty-four stone lions possessed the strength of a First Heavenly Layer Void Fragmentation Realm expert.
They were rooted here, their bodies connected to the great power. They couldn't move, but they could attack and defend the light gate.
Ning Fan glanced at the stone lions. He knew that they were the Cloud Lion puppets of the Rain Palace and they were the kind that could not be moved.
He had also seen these stone lions at the bottom of the Blood Dragon Pool where the past Rain Emperors had gone into seclusion.
Ning Fan did not say much. He just took out the Rain Sovereign Token and activated his sovereign qi to activate the might of the token.
All of a sudden, an indistinct golden shadow of a sovereign appeared behind him. The moment it appeared, Ning Fan's body emitted a strong aura of a sovereign.
In an instant, the twenty-four stone lions let out loud rumbling sounds as they knelt on the ground and respectfully lowered their heads.
"Welcome … Your … Majesty …"
"Open the door!" Ning Fan commanded.
"Yes!"
Twenty-four stone lions stood up, their eyes shining with silver light.
Then, the light door that was originally heavily sealed slowly opened, revealing a silver passageway.
The passageway was dozens of miles long, and flying was prohibited.
The silver light above the passageway was extremely dazzling. One's eyesight couldn't see too far, and one's divine sense couldn't be spread out too far either.
After the door of light opened, Ning Fan was not in a hurry to enter.
Behind him, the Rain Emperor's streak of light arrived at a leisurely pace, and his expression was a little dark.
He was the mighty Rain Emperor, yet these stone lions had never knelt before him before.
Ning Fan was just a devil cultivator. Just because he possessed the Rain Sovereign's token, he was regarded as the Divine Sovereign by the group of lions and they had to kneel before him.
The Rain Emperor naturally felt uncomfortable in his heart, yet he forced out a smile, and said, "After entering the giant door, it is the Directorate of Heaven's Forbidden Land. Little friend, please follow me into the forbidden area. "
After saying this, the Rain Emperor took the first step and stepped into the door of light.
The instant he entered the door of light, a hint of cold killing intent flashed through the Rain Emperor's eyes, but it disappeared in an instant.
He thought coldly in his heart, "The array door's passageway is severely damaged, and it's forbidden to fly. There are many cracks that are hard to see with the naked eye. If I take a wrong step, I'll fall into the first level of the forbidden area, the Devil's Den. It's Ning Fan's first time entering the forbidden area. I don't know where the cracks are. If I'm not careful, I might fall into the Devil's Den. There are many devil creatures in the Devil's Den. These devil creatures may not be very strong, but each of them possesses extremely strong corpse poison. The corpse poison of some devil creatures is enough to kill a cultivator … "
"I have the Ancient Beast Token with me. By borrowing the special power of divine beasts, I can slightly resist the forbidden power of flying …"
The Rain Emperor thought that he had concealed his killing intent very well, but he did not know that Ning Fan had already noticed it.
Ning Fan's eyes turned slightly cold.
He had killed countless people in his life. Thus, he was very sensitive to killing intent. The Rain Emperor's killing intent did not escape his senses.
If possible, he really did not want to fall out with the Rain Emperor …
"I've said it before. If the rain doesn't betray me, I won't betray the rain. Yun Zongxuan, if possible, I don't want to kill you! "
Ning Fan withdrew the cold light in his eyes, as if nothing had happened. He took a step into the door of light.
With a flash of silver light, Ning Fan stepped into the passage of the formation door. In here, his eyesight could only see as far as three zhang * (3.33m per zhang) while his spirit sense could only extend as far as one hundred zhang * (3.33m per zhang).
The forbidden power of flying was suppressing Ning Fan's body, preventing him from flying.
Ahead of them was a stretch of silver fog, and the Rain Emperor's tracks had long since disappeared.
Ning Fans thought for a moment and seemed to have a guess. He squatted down and checked the light wall beneath his feet.
After a brief examination, Ning Fan found out that due to the passage's long history, many parts of the light wall had become weak. There were countless cracks on it and it was not enough to support the weight of a human body.
There were even some places with large holes, but they were obscured by the brilliance, making it difficult for the naked eye to distinguish them.
This place forbade flying, so they had to walk. If they were not careful, they would fall into the tunnel.
"Yun Zongxuan wants me to fall down the tunnel … He has underestimated me."
Ning Fan opened the vertical eye on his glabella. It was his third eye – Human Eye.
When this eye appeared, the Divine Star between the eyebrows immediately merged into the human eye.
After activating the Fu Li Demon Eye and Mo Luo Devil Eye at the same time, Ning Fan's eyesight was greatly enhanced. He could see clearly where he could go and where he could not.
Naturally, he wouldn't fall into the demon's den below.
...
At the end of the passageway, the Rain Emperor's expression was slightly nervous. He had been waiting here for a long time.
After a long time, Ning Fan crossed the passage of the formation door and entered the forbidden area.
As soon as he saw Ning Fan walking out safely, the Rain Sovereign's eyes flashed with a hint of disappointment. However, he quickly concealed it.
He also knew that it was a little wishful thinking for him to kill Ning Fan with the devil creatures in the demon's den.
"Hehe. Little Friend, you're a little late. I've been waiting here for a long time. Little Friend, take a look. This is the first level of the forbidden area. By the way, I wonder what your purpose is in entering the forbidden area. Can you tell me? "
"I'm looking for someone."
As soon as Ning Fan finished speaking, he spread his spirit sense.
After walking out of the passage of the formation door, the place was no longer empty. The range of his spirit sense had also returned to normal.
Ning Fan's spirit sense could now extend to a distance of one million li * (500m per li). After performing a hand seal with his ten fingers and displaying the Heaven Peering Rain Technique, drizzling rain fell on the entire first level of the forbidden area.
Ning Fan had only fused three types of rain techniques. By fusing them, he could see the land within one billion li * (500m per li) which was almost the entire area of the first level of the forbidden area.
Displaying the complete Rain Technique consumed too much magic power. There was no need for Ning Fan to display the complete Rain Technique.
Moreover, he was severely injured in the battle against Yun Xiaoxiang. Even though he had already taken some pills to suppress his injuries when he passed through the passage of the formation door, he was still quite weak.
The fusion of three types of rain techniques was enough to see the entire first level of the forbidden area.
"It really is the Heaven Peering Rain Technique!!! Moreover, this young man's rain intent has actually reached the First Grade Realm. How is this possible?! "As soon as the Rain Sovereign saw the rain falling from the sky, he was immediately astonished.
His eyes flashed with jealousy. He almost wanted to kill Ning Fan right away.
However, when he thought of Lei Zhenzi's terrifying power, he did not dare to make a move.
After a while, Ning Fan withdrew his rain technique. His eyes revealed a hint of disappointment.
The forbidden underground area of the Ruling Sky City had three levels in total. Each level was extremely vast.
In the first level of the forbidden area, there were countless devil creatures hibernating. All of them were corpse beasts!
Ning Qian was not in the first level of the forbidden area …
"If she's not in the first level, then she must be in the second level or the third level!"
Ning Fan withdrew his expression and suddenly shook his Cauldron Ring, taking out a giant beast from it. He stepped on it and flew towards the distance.
It was a purple-eyed peacock. It was extremely beautiful and its aura force was so strong that it was suffocating.
"So this is the legendary … Nie Li ferocious beast?!"
The Rain Sovereign's expression changed drastically. He only knew that Nie Li was at the Fifth Break Realm from the information he received. However, he did not expect Nie Li's aura force to be so powerful.
The aura of this purple-eyed Nie Li was not any weaker than some Sixth Break Realm cultivators.
With just a glance, the Rain Sovereign was convinced that he was definitely not a match for Nie Li. Even with the help of the Beast Taming Ring, his chances of winning were still slim!
"No wonder this Nie Li could kill the Vine Sovereign. He's actually so powerful!"
Besides feeling astonished, the Rain Sovereign also felt a lingering fear.
Fortunately, Ning Fan did not summon Nie Li during his battle with Yun Xiaoxiang. If he did, the Rain Sovereign would have attacked him impulsively …
The consequences of acting impulsively would surely be very miserable.
Ning Fan had 12 Lei Zhenzi in his hands and he had the help of the purple-eyed Nie Li. Even if he were to face two Rain Sovereigns, he would be able to kill all of them.
At this moment, the Rain Sovereign was even more fearful of Ning Fan.
If it's possible, he would definitely not want to provoke Ning Fan. However, when he thought that Ning Fan would stop him from becoming an immortal in the near future, his eyes flashed with killing intent once again.
"If I can't borrow the power of the divine beast, I must not attack this young man!" The Rain Sovereign gradually calmed down.
It was not that he had given up on killing Ning Fan. Instead, it made him even more determined.
He must borrow the power of the divine beast to kill Ning Fan just like how he killed the Thunder Sovereign in the past!
The Rain Sovereign made up his mind. He turned into a ray of light and chased after Ning Fan.
The place where the divine beast went into seclusion was on the third floor.
It would be fine if Ning Fan did not enter the third floor.
However, if he enters the third floor, he would definitely think of a way to ask the divine beast to attack him. No matter what, he must kill Ning Fan at the bottom of the forbidden area!
...
Ning Fan flew on Nie Li's back, speeding towards the second floor of the forbidden area.
Nie Li's speed was much faster than the Rain Sovereign's. Thus, the Rain Sovereign naturally could not catch up to him.
The air in the first floor of the forbidden area was exceptionally heavy and it was accompanied by a strong stench of corpses.
Even though Ning Fan had just cast a layer of drizzle on the first floor, it could not wash away all the stench of corpses.
Some giant beasts with rotten bodies were crawling on the muddy ground.
These giant beasts were all corpse beasts. They fed on corpses and their bodies contained extremely powerful corpse poison.
There were not many corpse beasts on the first floor. There were only several tens of thousands of them. All of their bodies were rotten and their spiritual intelligence was low.
However, these corpse beasts had very high cultivation bases. The weakest among them was at the Late Divine Transformation Realm.
Some of the stronger ones had even reached the Void Refinement Realm.
Ning Fan cultivated the Corpse Devil Record and completed the Second Transformation of the Corpse Devil. To him, all the corpse beasts in this place were great nourishment. Consuming them could improve the realm of his cultivation method and increase his cultivation base.
To the corpse beasts in this place, Ning Fan who had completed the Second Transformation of the Corpse Devil was also a delicacy in their mouths.
* Roar *
Wherever Nie Li flew past, the corpse beasts leaped into the sky recklessly and blocked Nie Li's path while spraying out countless poisonous mists.
It was fine if it was just the corpse beasts of the Divine Transformation Realm but the corpse beasts of the Void Refinement Realm had very powerful corpse poison. Even a Destruction Realm cultivator would not dare to touch this poison easily.
Ning Fan was a corpse devil who had completed the Second Transformation of the Corpse Devil. Naturally, he was not afraid of mere Void Refinement Realm corpse poison.
On the contrary, to him, all corpse poisons were great nourishment.
As long as he encountered any corpse beasts blocking his path, Nie Li would kill all of them. Corpse beasts were considered as demon beasts and their bodies contained demon cores.
Ning Fan opened his mouth and sucked away all the poisonous mists while swallowing the demon cores of the corpse beasts into his stomach.
The Rain Sovereign who was following closely behind Ning Fan saw countless corpses of corpse beasts along the way. The fear in his eyes became more and more intense.
These corpse beasts were naturally killed by Ning Fan and Nie Li.
Among these dead corpse beasts, there were even Primordial Returning Corpse Beasts!
The Rain Sovereign could not help but be shocked.
One should know that the corpse beasts did not have high cultivation bases. Thus, it was not difficult to kill them. However, the corpse poison in their bodies was extremely terrifying.
If they were Primordial Returning Corpse Beasts, the corpse poison would be enough to kill a Void Fragmentation Realm cultivator.
Even the Rain Sovereign did not dare to face the Primordial Returning Corpse Beasts head-on when he entered the forbidden area in the past because he was afraid of being poisoned by the corpse poison.
Even though he would not be poisoned to death by the Primordial Returning Corpse Beasts, his cultivation base would still be greatly damaged if he is poisoned by the corpse poison.
The corpse beasts that he did not dare to face were killed by Ning Fan with ease.
Some places still had extremely thick poisonous mists of the corpse poison which formed an impassable barrier. Even the Rain Sovereign did not dare to pass through recklessly. He needed to take a detour to advance.
However, Ning Fan went straight ahead without avoiding the poisonous mists at all …
"Could it be that this young man is not afraid of the corpse poison or the corpse beasts?!" The Rain Sovereign could not help but guess.
When the Rain Sovereign arrived at the entrance of the second floor, Ning Fan had already landed in Nie Li's body. He was adjusting his breath on the ground while waiting.
At this moment, Ning Fan was forcefully devouring the demon cores of all the corpse beasts.
These demon cores did not contain rich magic power. Instead, they contained terrifying poison.
Along the way, Ning Fan had devoured nearly ten thousand demon cores of Divine Transformation Realm corpse beasts and more than fifty demon cores of Void Refinement Realm corpse beasts.
Currently, Ning Fan had yet to completely refine all of the demon cores but he had already absorbed a significant amount of poison power.
Ning Fan's body was surrounded by layers of poisonous mists which even gave the Rain Sovereign a sense of danger.
This poison was not enough to injure him but it was enough to devour his cultivation base bit by bit, causing his cultivation base to gradually decline!
"Not only is this young man not afraid of the corpse poison, but he can also absorb it. T-This …" The Rain Sovereign's eyes were filled with astonishment.
Could it be that Ning Fan is a poison cultivator? Otherwise, why is he not afraid of the corpse poison?!
No matter how smart the Rain Sovereign was, he would never think that Ning Fan was not a poison cultivator but a corpse devil.
At this moment, Ning Fan stood up and stopped refining the demon cores of the corpse beasts in his body. He looked at the Rain Sovereign indifferently and said.
"Lead the way. Let's go to the second floor!"
