When Ning Fan and his group entered Tianyuan City, countless old monsters' gazes swept across Ning Fan's body in the dark.
It made Ning Fan feel helpless. It was hard for him to keep a low profile because of the little demoness's prank.
Now that he was being watched by countless experts of the Demon World, he needed to be careful with his words and actions.
If his identity as the Divine Sovereign of the Rain World was exposed, there would certainly be a lot of trouble.
It was a taboo for a sovereign of a world to sneak into another world.
"My dear husband, don't be angry. It's my fault for causing you trouble. I promise that if He Shixiu comes looking for trouble, I will certainly help you drive him away, okay? "The little demoness begged him with all kinds of soft words. She was having fun playing the role of a Dao Companion.
"There's no need … You helped me once and I still owe you a favor …" Ning Fan shook his head and sighed.
Money could be owed, but a favor should never be owed, especially a favor from the little demoness.
Hua Yu and the other female cultivators of the Light Feather Clan followed behind Ning Fan respectfully. Each of their eyes were filled with shock.
He Shixiu's words were shielded by his magical power, so they could not hear it clearly.
However, the fact that four Void Fragmentation experts specially went out of the city to meet Ning Fan shocked all of them.
"Old Ancestor Bai Mu has such a great reputation. He has just arrived in Tianyuan City and he already sent four Void Fragmentation old monsters to welcome him personally!"
"Our Light Feather Clan has been in decline for a long time. Void Fragmentation old monsters are unreachable existences to our clan … It's really unbelievable that Old Ancestor Bai Mu is acquainted with those old monsters …"
"Old Ancestor Bai Mu is really an incredible person."
Just half a month ago, these female cultivators of the Light Feather Clan were still afraid of Ning Fan's evil reputation.
But at this moment, each of them was filled with admiration and admiration for Ning Fan.
The female cultivators of the Demon Race always admired the strong.
In their eyes, Ning Fan who was acquainted with four Void Fragmentation experts was naturally an expert who hid his strength very deeply.
"Hua Yu would like to ask what realm Old Ancestor's cultivation base has reached …" Hua Yu asked carefully.
Even though she was convinced that Ning Fan was a Void Refinement cultivator, she still did not know what realm he was at.
Rumor had it that when Old Ancestor Bai Mu was expelled from the Light Feather Clan, he was already at the Void Glimpse Stage.
"Wen Xu."
With the help of the medicinal power of the Appearance Changing Pill, he purposely released a trace of Void Inquiry Stage aura force at the right time.
Under this aura, the Painted Feather Demon Infant could not help but tremble, but her pretty face revealed a pleasantly surprised expression.
Ning Fan's cultivation base was beyond her expectation.
However, some of the old monsters who were secretly observing Ning Fan withdrew their spirit sense and muttered to themselves disapprovingly.
"This young man is just at the Void Inquiry Stage, huh? Even though he is acquainted with four Void Fragmentation Realm experts, there's nothing to be afraid of."
Those who could enter Tianyuan City were all old monsters above the Void Refinement Realm.
There were at least several thousand Void Refinement Realm experts participating in the Dragon Fishing Convention. Even dozens of Void Fragmentation Realm old monsters had come.
Several of the Ten Sovereigns of the Demon Realm would also be spectating this event.
In such a grand scene, if Ning Fan only had a Void Inquiry Stage cultivation base, he naturally would not be worthy of the attention of those old monsters with profound cultivation bases.
The information of every old monster that entered the Tianyuan Continent would be collected by the Demon Messengers of the Palace of Yuan and sent back to Tianyuan City.
Gradually, some of them obtained Ning Fan's information from the Palace of Origin.
As soon as they found out that Ning Fan was actually from the White Feather Clan, the number of people paying attention to him became even lesser.
The White Feather Clan was only an inferior demon clan and wasn't worth mentioning at all.
Ning Fan was just a Void Inquiry Stage cultivator and he did not have a strong background. Most likely, he would not get any amazing results in the Dragon Fishing Meeting this time. It was also unknown whether or not he could get a place to participate in the meeting.
There were also some old monsters who had heard of Bai Mu from the Light Wing Clan thousands of years ago.
"White Wood of the Light Feather Clan … He's White Wood! That thief! "
There were a few Void Refinement Realm old monsters in the city whose wives and daughters were once harmed by Bai Mu. As soon as he heard Ning Fan's name, he naturally vented his anger on him.
There were also some who had no grudges with Bai Mu. Initially, they wanted to befriend Ning Fan, but after hearing that Ning Fan was Bai Mu, they gave up on the idea.
It couldn't be helped. Bai Mu was notorious for being lecherous and shameless. He wouldn't even let his friend's wife go … But his methods and strength were ordinary. Even some Fiendish Dao cultivators kept their distance from Bai Mu.
Gradually, no one paid attention to Ning Fan anymore. Even if there were people who occasionally paid attention to him, they would either look at him with disdain or hostility.
Ning Fan did not know how much disdain and hostility Bai Mu's notoriety had brought him.
Even if he knew, he would not care.
The reason why he purposely released his Void Inquiry Stage qi was to reduce trouble and not attract too much attention.
Inside Tianyuan City, there were countless temporary palaces for Void Refinement Realm old monsters to rest.
With the Blue Jade Token, Ning Fan found a palace that was built beside the Demon River. With the token, he directly moved in and settled the group of female cultivators of the Light Feather Clan there.
Ning Fan sat alone in the room, looking out of the window while holding a cup of freshly brewed spiritual tea and sipping it.
On the pale golden Demon River, one or two pleasure boats would occasionally pass by.
In each boat, there were many beautiful virgin cultivators. Most of them were at the Harmonious Spirit Realm or Gold Core Realm. They were singing and dancing gracefully.
They were the female cauldrons that the Palace of Origin prepared for the old monsters who entered the city. If any of the old monsters fancied a woman, they could directly take her away and enjoy themselves to the fullest.
Ning Fan frowned slightly. He put down the spiritual tea, flicked his sleeves and closed the window, no longer watching those women singing and dancing.
In the current cultivation world, the weak could not choose their own fate while the strong could control everything.
Ning Fan did not like such an atmosphere in the cultivation world but he could not change anything.
"Husband, if you like any woman, just tell me. I will bring her back for you to enjoy." The little demoness appeared in Ning Fan's room out of nowhere. She looked at Ning Fan with a smile.
"There's no need."
"Oh? As the successor of Ancient Chaos, it's really strange that you don't like beauties. "The little demoness sat beside Ning Fan and casually took Ning Fan's teacup and took a sip.
Immediately, a faint rouge mark was left on the edge of the cup.
Then, she licked her lips ambiguously and giggled. "Hehe. It's not a good tea … But this is the one that you have drunk before. If I drink it again, it will have a different taste."
The lady's appearance could be said to be peerless. Her bright eyes that were like black gemstones were like a mysterious void, making people unable to see through her real thoughts.
"You are not resting in your room but came to find me. What's the matter?" Ning Fan did not believe that the little demoness came to talk about love with him.
"I came here to ask husband, do you have the ambition to ascend to the Eastern Heaven?"
"You want to recruit me on behalf of the Godly Void Pavilion and grant me an ascension quota to ascend to the Eastern Heaven?"
Ning Fan's eyes slightly froze. This was the second ascension quota he received.
Bei Xiaoman gave him one and now, the little demoness also wanted to give him one.
If a cultivator broke through the Immortal Realm, they could ascend. If they relied on their own strength to ascend, they would naturally face many dangers.
With the ascension quota, even a Spirit Severing cultivator could ascend to the Four Heavens without any harm.
But if they accepted the ascension quota, they would have to join the faction that granted them the quota after ascension.
Thus, whether or not to accept the quota needed to be carefully considered.
"If I recruit you on behalf of the Godly Void Pavilion, will you go?"
"I will consider it, but I might not go."
"What if I use the third condition to force you to go?" The little demoness smiled slyly.
"I will go." Ning Fan said indifferently.
"Hee hee, look at your reluctant face. I won't force you … With your cultivation base, it's very easy for you to break through the Immortal Realm and ascend on your own. You still owe me the third condition. I won't use it casually. I'll keep it for now. Perhaps it will be useful in the future. "The little demoness smiled evilly and continued.
"The matter of ascension is over. Let's talk about the fishing rod. In five days, Tianyuan City will hold a competition to decide the five hundred participants of the Dragon Fishing Convention. With your cultivation base, it's easy for you to obtain the quota. But if you want to catch a demonic dragon, you will first need a Purple Grade fishing rod … a fishing rod that can catch Yin and Yang dragons! "
A demonic dragon with a Yin Pearl was a Yin Dragon while a demonic dragon with a Yang Pearl was a Yang Dragon.
To participate in the Dragon Fishing Convention, one would need to hold a fishing rod magical treasure specially made by the Primordial Palace in order to catch a dragon soul.
Ordinary grade fishing rod magical treasures were sold everywhere in Tianyuan City.
However, if one wants to catch a dragon soul of the Third Grade and above, one would need a specially made Purple Grade fishing rod that could withstand the impact of a Third Grade dragon soul.
Ning Fan came to Tianyuan City late. All the Purple Grade fishing rods in the city had already been bought by countless old monsters.
If he wants to buy a Purple Grade fishing rod, he would have to order one at the last minute.
Purple Grade fishing rods were very expensive. They needed to be mixed with many rare spiritual ores. However, it didn't take much time to make them. They could be made in three to five days.
It wouldn't be too late for Ning Fan to order a Purple Grade fishing rod now.
"Husband, quickly go to the weapon refinement workshop in the city to order a Purple Grade fishing rod. Nowadays, there are many old monsters who order Purple Grade fishing rods in the city. However, the number of weapon refinement masters is limited. If you're late, you won't be able to order a Purple Grade fishing rod and you won't be able to fish the Yin Yang Dragon Pearl."
"Why didn't you say so earlier …"
Ning Fan shook his head helplessly. Along the way, the little demoness did not mention anything about ordering a fishing rod at all. She only mentioned it now. It was definitely intentional.
Ning Fan originally planned to use the Green Astral Gold and Profound Yellow Crystal to repair the ancient golden sword after resting for a while. Now, it seemed like he had to deal with the fishing rod first.
"There are a total of eleven weapon refinement workshops in the jade slips. All of them have the ability to refine Purple Grade fishing rods. You can go and take a look. By the way, Purple Grade fishing rods are very expensive. If it's specially ordered, the price is usually thirty percent higher. If you don't have enough money, you can borrow it from me. Hehe. You and I are husband and wife. If you ask, I will lend you any amount of money. However, if that's the case, you'll owe me another favor. "
The little demoness passed a jade slips to Ning Fan smilingly.
Ning Fan scanned the contents of the jade slips with his spirit sense and kept it into his storage pouch. He rubbed his temples, which gave him a headache. Without saying anything, he left the palace.
He would not borrow money from the little demoness. He could afford a mere fishing rod.
As soon as he got out of the palace, Ning Fan restricted his travelling light to the Void Inquiry Stage and flew towards the weapon refinement workshops.
There were only eleven weapon refinement workshops that could refine Purple Grade fishing rods.
Ning Fan visited ten weapon refinement workshops in a row but none of them could order a Purple Grade fishing rod.
Each weapon refinement workshop only had six to seven weapon refinement masters who could refine Purple Grade fishing rods. Since Ning Fan came too late, countless old monsters had already come to order one.
If Ning Fan wants to order a Purple Grade fishing rod before the Dragon Fishing Meet, he could forget about it.
"Am I late …? Fine. Let's go to the last one. If I really can't order a Purple Grade fishing rod … I'll just snatch one. What's so difficult about that? "
Ning Fan made up his mind. His travelling light flashed and he flew towards the eleventh weapon refinement workshop.
The last weapon refinement workshop was called 'Upper Nine Pavilions'. It was one of the three largest weapon refinement workshops in Tianyuan City.
The horizontal board of the weapon refinement workshop was written with golden lacquer. The handwriting was sloppy and there seemed to be a sense of waning interest hidden between the lines.
Outside the Upper Nine Pavilions, there was a large group of cultivators. Most of them were Nascent Soul Realm and Divine Transformation Realm cultivators.
Seeing Ning Fan's travelling light descending, all of the cultivators' expressions changed slightly. Occasionally, some of them would complain in a low voice. "Sigh. Another senior who orders a Purple Grade fishing rod has come … I wonder if master can successfully obtain the last fishing rod."
"Sigh. With that person around, even master can't compete with him … Even this senior might not be able to compete with him …" Another person sighed.
Of course, the words of these people could not escape Ning Fan's ears.
Ning Fan's eyes flickered slightly. It seemed like there was only one Purple Grade fishing rod left in the Upper Nine Pavilions.
There seemed to be a few old monsters in the Upper Nine Pavilions fighting for the last fishing rod …
Ning Fan had yet to enter the Upper Nine Pavilions but he could already sense four to five Void Refinement Realm qi.
These low-grade cultivators outside the door should be the disciples of the old monsters in the pavilion.
"It seems like I have to compete for this fishing rod."
Ning Fan smiled and stepped into the Upper Nine Pavilions.
There was no Void Fragmentation Realm qi in the Upper Nine Pavilions. In other words, those who came to compete for the fishing rod were only Void Refinement Realm cultivators.
It would not be difficult for him to obtain this fishing rod by bidding for it with immortal jades.
At present, he had a total of close to three trillion Celestial Jades on him. A portion of it was obtained from the Vine Palace, and a portion of it was obtained from killing the sect masters of the three realms, the Rain Emperor, and the others.
He did not think that a few mere Void Refinement Realm cultivators would have more immortal jade than him.
If it's a battle of martial arts, Ning Fan was already at the First Refinement Realm. It was impossible for him to lose to a few Void Refinement Realm cultivators.
As soon as Ning Fan entered the Upper Nine Pavilions, an old man immediately walked out with a bitter smile and cupped his fists to greet Ning Fan.
This elderly man was at the Void Inquiry Stage and he was the pavilion lord of the nine upper pavilions.
The Void Inquiry Stage qi that Ning Fan purposely released naturally could not escape his senses.
"I am the pavilion master of the Upper Nine Pavilions, Ah Jiu. May I know your name? Are you here to order a Purple Quality Fishing Rod from the Upper Nine Pavilions? "
"My name is Bai Mu. This time, I am indeed here for the Purple Grade Fishing Rod." Ning Fan cupped his fists to return the greeting. His face was calm, but his heart was slightly surprised.
The pavilion lord of the nine upper pavilions was a Void Inquiry Stage cultivator after all but his name was Ah Jiu. Ah Jiu's name sounded like a servant.
As soon as he heard that Ning Fan was here for the fishing rod, the bitter smile on the pavilion lord's face became deeper. He sighed and said. "Since Fellow Daoist is also here for the Purple Grade Fishing Rod, please follow me to the main hall for a chat. To be honest, there are four other Void Refinement Realm cultivators in the main hall who have the same purpose as you. All of them are here for the fishing rod. Among them, there is one Void Inquiry Stage expert, two Void Pierce Stage experts and the last one is Guiyuan Taixu … "
"Is that so?"
Ning Fan casually answered and followed the pavilion lord into the main hall. His expression was calm and indifferent.
If he were to compete for the fishing rod with the four Void Fragmentation Realm old monsters, he would have to expend some effort.
However, if he were to compete with a few Void Refinement Realm cultivators, it would certainly not be difficult at all.
The pavilion lord was inwardly surprised. He deliberately revealed the cultivation bases of the four old monsters who were competing for the fishing rod to Ning Fan because he wanted Ning Fan to know the difficulty and back off.
Three of the four Void Refinement Realm old monsters who were competing for the fishing rod had higher cultivation bases than Ning Fan.
From the pavilion lord's point of view, if Ning Fan knew that Guiyuan Taixu would participate in the competition for the fishing rod this time, even if he did not retreat in fear on the spot, his expression would certainly change slightly.
After all, Ning Fan was just a Void Inquiry Stage cultivator. He could not afford to offend Guiyuan Taixu. Normally, he would not dare to compete with Guiyuan Taixu.
What surprised the pavilion lord was Ning Fan's indifferent attitude.
It was as if Guiyuan Taixu was nothing to him.
"If it isn't because this young man has a strong background and he is not afraid of Guiyuan Taixu, he must be extremely cunning and does not show his emotions on his face."
"However, I don't think that this young man can compete with this Guiyuan Taixu. After all, this Guiyuan Taixu also has a strong background."
The pavilion lord sighed softly.
This Guiyuan Taixu was the disciple of the strongest expert among the ten great Demon Sovereigns of this generation – the Ape Sovereign.
In terms of background, what kind of background could compete with the background of a Demon Sovereign?
Ning Fan, of course, did not know what the elderly man was thinking.
He followed the elderly man and walked to the main hall after turning left and right.
Before they stepped into the main hall, a cold and stern voice of a young man suddenly resounded from inside the hall. It formed a wave of aura force that contained boundless battle intent, rushing towards Ning Fan and the nine pavilion lords.
"Oh? Another Fellow Daoist has come to compete for this Purple Grade Fishing Rod, huh? "
That oppressive aura force contained overwhelming battle intent. It even contained the aura force of the Guiyuan Realm which seemed to be able to crush anyone's battle intent.
The expressions of the nine pavilion lords changed. Under that aura force, they hurriedly took a few steps back. Their faces were already flushed and their qi was in a mess.
Ning Fan's eyes narrowed. He seemed to be able to see a giant claw of battle intent hidden within that invisible aura force storm.
That giant claw could crush anyone's battle intent and make them retreat without putting up a fight.
It was a mysterious ability … But that was all there was to it.
Ning Fan did not stop walking. He continued moving forward as if he was not affected by the aura force at all.
When that invisible claw of battle intent reached his chest, Ning Fan's eyes suddenly turned cold. He raised his hand and flicked his sleeve.
All of a sudden, the claw of battle intent was shattered. Immediately, a muffled groan of a young man came from the main hall.
The eyes of the nine pavilion lords were filled with shock. They naturally could not imagine that Ning Fan who was just at the Void Inquiry Stage was able to block the divine ability and secret technique of the Ape Sovereign's follower.
Ning Fan did not say much and just walked into the main hall.
At this moment, there were four Void Refinement Realm cultivators sitting in the main hall.
One of them was an old man in purple robes who was at the Void Inquiry Stage, one was a burly middle-aged man who was at the Void Pierce Stage, one was a beautiful woman who was at the Void Pierce Stage and the last one was a young man in a beast robe who was at the Guiyuan Taixu Realm.
At this moment, the young man's face was flushed. He was holding his chest with a gloomy expression. When he saw Ning Fan entering the hall, he immediately said coldly.
"I didn't expect that a mere Void Inquiry Stage like you could actually break my divine ability of battle intent. Humph! Are you here to fight for the fishing rod too? "(To be continued.)
