When the five Void Fragmentation Realm experts from the Mountain Realm arrived in Yue Country, the entire Seven Apricot City was immersed in a somber atmosphere.
As for Yue Lingkong, Su Yan and the other women, their cultivation bases were not at the Void Fragmentation Realm. They were not strong enough to fight against the strong enemies of the Mountain World.
Under such circumstances, only Void Fragmentation Realm experts were qualified to stand in the sky.
Mu Luo was a Fifth Demolisher, Mei Chen was a Third Demolisher, and Bright Sparrow, Teng Xianrou, and the five tribulation beasts were all First Demolishers.
There were a total of nine Void Fragmentation Realm cultivators guarding Seven Apricot City. There were only five enemy cultivators. It seemed like Seven Apricot City had the advantage in numbers.
However, among the five enemy cultivators from the Mountain World, three of them were at the Fifth Heavenly Layer of the Void Fragmentation Realm. One of them was at the Fourth Heavenly Layer while the other was at the Third Heavenly Layer. In terms of cultivation base, they were a notch higher than Seventh Plum Void Fragmentation Realm.
The leader of the Void Fragmentation Realm cultivators of the Mountain World was a fat old man. He wore a yellow robe and his strength was above the Five Shattering Realm. His name was Zhao Banzhi and he was a rogue cultivator.
This person was the one who had clamored for Ning Fan to come out and meet him.
As the saying goes, 'Those who are good at defending hide under the nine earths; those who are good at attacking move above the nine heavens.'
Most of the cultivators of the Mountain Realm were good at defense and not good at offense. Zhao Banzhi was an expert in defensive techniques. It was said that he once broke through the attacks of six cultivators without suffering any damage.
This Zhao Banzhi had even cultivated a strand of Sovereign Qi. Although he was not a Mountain Sovereign, he was still a famous figure in the Mountain Realm, and was even valued by a Seven Shattering Old Monster.
Zhao Banzhi Xu narrowed his eyes and glanced at Mu Luo, Mei Chen, Ming Que, Teng Xianrou, and the Five Puppets of the Heavenly Tribulation. He was rather surprised.
He knew that there were very few Void Fragmentation Realm experts in the Rain World. During the period when Yun Zongxuan ruled the Rain World, there were no Void Fragmentation Realm experts in the Rain World.
Moreover, there were even heavenly tribulation puppets in Seven Apricot City …
Zhao Banzhi guessed inwardly. Could it be that this Heavenly Tribulation Puppet was captured by the new Rain Sovereign, Ning Fan?
What an arrogant brat! Isn't he afraid of offending the Lower Realm's Heavenly Way by capturing the Heavenly Tribulation Puppet?
Even though he was surprised that Seven Apricot City had so many Void Fragmentation experts, he did not pay too much attention to them.
Other than Mu Luo, who was a Fifth Demolisher, no one else in the area was worthy of his attention.
After all, the Rain World was the weakest of the Nine Worlds. It was not worth mentioning!
There were two different versions of the cause of Yun Zongxuan's death. One of them stated that Yun Zongxuan had died of an accident. The other version said that the Evil Cloud Rain Sovereign, Ning Fan, had killed Yun Zongxuan and seized the throne.
Zhao Banzhi did not believe that Ning Fan who was just at the First Level of Destruction Realm could kill Yun Zongxuan. He was more willing to believe that Yun Zongxuan had died in an accident.
In his mind, Zhao Banzhi did not put Ning Fan who had just lost a portion of his cultivation base in his eyes.
"Where's the Sinful Cloud Rain Sovereign? Quickly ask him to come out and speak with this old man!" Zhao Banzhi said impatiently in a cold voice.
There was a pressure in his voice that was as heavy as a mountain. The cultivators of Seven Apricot City below the Void Fragmentation Realm were simply unable to withstand it. Each and every one of them had their Qi in chaos.
The four old monsters behind Zhao Banzhi also had impatient looks on their faces.
Among these four people, two of them were Five Shatter cultivators. One of them wore a black robe and held a magic treasure. He was the Patriarch of the Taiyuan Valley in the Mountain Realm. The other wore a red robe and rode on a Great Virtual Realm Water Repelling Beast. He held a chipped jade bowl magic treasure. He was the Patriarch of the Great Mountain Sect in the Mountain Realm.
Among the remaining two old monsters, the one with the third and the one with the fourth was the sect master of the Mountain Realm's Red Sand Sect, while the one with the fourth was the sect master of the Mountain Realm's Sumeru Sect.
As cultivators of the Zhongshan Realm, they were born with a sense of pride when facing the weakest cultivators of the Rain Realm.
Now that the Mountain World was at war with the Earth Immortal World, if not for the fact that they wanted to reap some benefits from the Rain World, the five of them would not have bothered to go to the weakest of the Nine Worlds, the Rain World.
"Humph! Fellow Daoist, you sure talk big! As a cultivator of the Mountain World, it's one thing for you to openly invade the Rain World, but you're also asking the Rain Sovereign to come and see you. Could it be that you think that the Rain World is weak and easy to bully?! "
Mu Luo's eyes turned cold. If it wasn't for the fact that his body couldn't leave the Dark Sparrow's Grave, with his cultivation base, he wouldn't be afraid of a few kids from the Mountain Realm.
At this moment, he could only leave the Dark Sparrow's Grave with his Fifth Shatterer cultivation base clone. If he were to fight the three Fifth Shatterer old monsters alone, his chances of winning were slim.
"Hehe, I don't know if the Rain World is weak and easy to bully. However, the previous Rain Sovereign, Yun Zongxuan, was a good friend of mine. I heard rumors that Fellow Daoist Yun died at the hands of the Sinful Cloud Rain Sovereign. We've come to the Rain World to demand an explanation for Fellow Daoist Yun! I've tried my best, but the Sinful Cloud Rain Sovereign refuses to come and see me. Since that's the case, I won't show any mercy. Taiyuan Forefather, why don't you spar with this fellow Daoist? "
Zhao Banzhi smiled disdainfully at Mu Luo, then turned to Taiyuan.
"Alright. Since the Sinful Cloud Rain Sovereign refuses to show himself, there's no need for us to wait any longer. Fellow Daoist, please enlighten us! "
Taiyuan Forefather strode across the sky toward Mu Luo.
Zhao Banzhi and the others retreated thirty thousand feet away from the battlefield to allow Taiyuan and Mu Luo to fight.
The coldness in Mu Luo's eyes intensified. He said to Mei Chen and Bright Sparrow behind him, "I'll handle the Five Shatterer battle. There's no need for you to take the risk. Retreat thirty thousand feet away."
Mei Chen, Bright Sparrow, and Teng Xianrou looked at each other. Despite their resentment toward the Mountain Realm cultivators, they had no choice but to retreat thirty thousand feet with the Five Shatterer cultivators.
Given their cultivation, they wouldn't be able to harm a Five Shatterer cultivator unless they fought to the death.
"How should I address you, fellow daoist?" Taiyuan smiled sinisterly.
"Mu Luo!" Mu Luo snapped back.
"So it's Daoist Mu Luo. Haha … Mu Luo, Falling Cloud!"
Two beams of yellow light flashed in Taiyuan's eyes.
The moment they appeared, the terrain within a radius of several million kilometers shifted.
Mu Luo's figure swayed as the terrain shifted, almost falling off the cloud.
This was the Falling Cloud Art, a secret art unique to Taiyuan Valley in the Mountain Realm. It could only be used with the help of the terrain.
Mu Luo's eyes flashed. He abruptly stomped on the sky, shattering the momentum and stabilizing his figure.
"Oh? Daoist Mu Luo managed to block my secret art and didn't fall off the cloud? "Taiyuan was a little taken aback.
"Hmph, it's just a petty trick. What else do you have? Bring it on!" Mu Luo said coldly.
"Petty trick … Hmph! Then I'll show you what I'm capable of. Seal of Mountains and Rivers, smash! "
Taiyuan raised the seal in his hand. It soared into the sky with the sound of mountains collapsing and rivers collapsing.
However, a yellow light flashed from the treasure seal, and in an instant, it transformed into millions of huge mountains that smashed down on Mu Luo.
Without Mu Luo's help, the mountains would've flattened the land within a radius of several million kilometers!
Mu Luo's eyes narrowed. Without a word, he made a hand seal.
Up in the sky, the void suddenly shattered into pieces.
Countless demonic black vines sprouted from the dark sky.
The vines twisted together to form a giant black palm thirty thousand meters long.
The giant fists punched at the millions of mountains in the sky, shattering them into rubble and scattering them across the sky!
The Seal of Mountains and Rivers retreated after the mountains were destroyed. Several cracks appeared on its surface as it flew back into Taiyuan's hand.
Taiyuan's eyes widened in shock. Mu Luo wasn't an ordinary Shatter cultivator. He couldn't defeat him alone!
"Daoist Taiyuan, come back! You're no match for him!" Giant Yue shouted.
Taiyuan didn't need Giant Yue's reminder to retreat on a streak of light.
"You want to leave?"
Mu Luo snorted and changed his hand seal. Countless vines punched at Taiyuan from afar.
Startled, Taiyuan immediately summoned the Divine Mountain Armor to protect himself.
Many cultivators of the mountain realm cultivated this art. It allowed them to devour earthen veins and refine their natal Divine Mountain Armor, granting them unparalleled defense.
Taiyuan's Divine Mountain Armor wouldn't be broken even by a slightly stronger Shatter cultivator.
However, the Divine Mountain Armor trembled when Mu Luo's vines punched it. Countless cracks appeared on its surface, and it wasn't far from shattering.
He himself also felt a sharp pain in his chest, and was slightly affected by the fist radiance. He retreated tens of thousands of feet in the sky before he managed to stabilize himself. He looked at Mu Luo with a venomous gaze.
"Daoist Giant Yue, lend me a hand!"
"Alright!"
Without a word, Forefather Ju Yue rode off on his Water Repellent Beast.
He exchanged a look with Taiyuan, then transformed into two streaks of light and attacked Mu Luo from two different directions.
"Two against one? How despicable!" a few young cultivators in Seven Apricot City complained.
A few old monsters sighed.
On the path of cultivation, the victor was king and the loser was the bandit. There was no such thing as despicable.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Mu Luo was much stronger than Taiyuan.
However, his chances of winning against both Taiyuan and Giant Yue at the same time weren't high.
"Hmph, come at me together. I have nothing to fear! Void Art, Omniscient Nature! "
Mu Luo changed his hand seal, and a fifty-thousand-meter-tall tree spirit manifested behind him.
Wielding an enormous black wooden sword, the tree spirit swung at Taiyuan and Giant Yue.
Both of their expressions changed, and they stopped their escape lights. Using their own methods, they were barely able to block the sword light.
Before they could rest for a moment, the tree spirit swung its sword again, exhausting the two.
Mu Luo couldn't defeat Taiyuan and Giant Yue with the tree spirit, but he was undefeatable.
"Where did this Mu Luo come from? He's fighting two at the same level and yet he's still undefeated!"
Zhao Banzhi inhaled. He'd never heard of such a powerful figure in the Rain World.
Ten thousand years ago, Thunder Monarch Bu Zhou was infamous throughout the Rain World. He'd almost overturned the Rain World's status as the weakest in the Nine Realms.
Unfortunately, Thunder Monarch Bu Zhou perished under mysterious circumstances, leaving the Rain World without a hero.
Within a thousand years, a white-robed sword god appeared in the Rain World. He'd obtained the sword demon's inheritance and was nearly invincible at the same level.
Unfortunately, it was said that he'd offended Yun Zongxuan and had his cultivation sealed for many years. Otherwise, he might've broken through to the fifth fragmentation realm long ago. If that was the case, Zhao Banzhi and the others wouldn't dare to show off in the Rain World.
Apart from these two, there hadn't been any powerful figures in the Rain World for tens of thousands of years.
Where did this Mu Luo come from? He couldn't possibly be a nobody since he was able to fight two people at the same time!
"Looks like you'll need my help from the side …"
Zhao Banzhi's eyes flashed with a trace of sinister light. He secretly took out a golden pearl from his sleeve, raised his hand and threw it towards Mu Luo.
This pearl was called the Great Earth Pearl. If it was used for a sneak attack, it was enough to tear open the flesh of an ordinary fifth fragmentation old monster.
Even though Zhao Banzhi's attack was very secretive, many people still saw him sneak attack.
Many people immediately shouted. "Senior Mu Luo, be careful!"
Yue Lingkong's pretty face turned red like a blossoming peach.
Shameless! The people of the Mountain World were too shameless. Not only did they fight two against one, they even had a third person sneak attack from the side.
Even in the cultivation world, it was rare to see such a shameless thing!
Zhi He, Mu Xiao Huan, Mu Xiaoliang and Feng Xueyan who were just eating and drinking were even more furious.
They didn't like the cultivation world and they hated Zhao Banzhi's despicable behavior even more.
These people are really despicable. They snuck into the Rain World to find trouble with Brother Fan. When they couldn't find Brother Fan, they attacked him.
What a bunch of shameless old men!
"Sneak attack, huh …" Mu Luo's eyes turned a little gloomy.
At this moment, he was using all his strength to control the giant shadow of the tree demon to attack Tai Yuan and Ju Yue. It would be difficult for him to have the remaining strength to block the sneak attack of the Great Earth Pearl.
Just as he was thinking about how to break this pearl, a slightly illusory golden vortex suddenly appeared in front of the Great Earth Pearl.
That Great Earth Pearl directly entered the vortex and vanished into thin air without making any sound.
"Who is it? How dare you take away my magic treasure!" Zhao Banzhi was furious. His eyes were like lightning as he scanned the surroundings.
Only then did he realize that a white-robed young man had appeared outside Seven Apricot City.
That young man was very young. His bone age was only slightly more than a thousand years. However, his qi was at the Void Fragmentation Realm!
The young man had refined the Flowing Light Ring, a piece of spiritual equipment. His qi was ethereal and unfathomable.
For a moment, Zhao Banzhi could not tell which heavenly layer the young man's cultivation base was.
However, he recognized the young man's appearance. He knew that the young man's cultivation base was only at the First Heavenly Layer of the Void Fragmentation Realm.
"The Evil Cloud Rain Sovereign, Ning Fan!" Zhao Banzhi was so angry that he laughed.
He didn't expect that his Great Earth Pearl would be taken away by Ning Fan who was just at the First Heavenly Layer of the Void Fragmentation Realm.
If the old monsters of the Mountain World find out about this, he, Zhao Banzhi, would certainly become a laughing stock.
"Brother Fan! Quick! Go and teach these shameless old men a lesson! "Zhi He waved her fists and said to Ning Fan angrily.
"Little Cucumber, quickly go and chop them up! Yue Lingkong's beautiful eyes were as cold as ice.
"Big Brother, you're here …" Xu Qiuling instantly felt relieved.
As far as she was concerned, there was nothing that Ning Fan could not accomplish with his help.
Su Yan, Gu Shiniang, Fen Chi and the other devil concubines, as well as Bai Su, Ya Lan and Su Yao, all of their nervousness disappeared the moment they saw Ning Fan.
It was all because he was here in Seven Apricot City …
"Don't worry. I'm here."
Ning Fan's figure flashed and disappeared without a trace. At the next moment, he appeared in the sky.
It was just a casual sentence but it had a special magical power that made all the cultivators in Seven Apricot City believe that nothing bad would happen to the city as long as Ning Fan was here.
Ning Fan walked towards Zhao Banzhi and the others step by step. He went past Ming Que, the other women and Mu Luo.
As soon as he appeared, the two old ancestors, Tai Yuan and Ju Yue, immediately stopped attacking and retreated. Their eyes narrowed slightly.
Mu Luo also dispelled the shadow of the tree demon and said to Ning Fan. "The enemy is a little troublesome."
"It's alright!"
Ning Fan stopped moving and his eyes flashed with cold light.
The people of the world only knew that the Rain World was the weakest. However, they did not know that it was Ning Fan who killed the Vine Sovereign and shocked the Demon World!
If Ning Fan was in the past, he might be afraid of these five old monsters of the Mountain World.
However, he had already taken dozens of Void Fragmentation Realm lives along the way. Even in the Demon World, he had never been afraid of them. Why would he be afraid of the Mountain World?!
Ning Fan's body gave off the aura force of a sovereign that made one's heart palpitate!
A trace of his sovereign qi was equivalent to twenty traces of other people's!
The aura force force of his sovereign qi was twenty times stronger than Zhao Banzhi's!
When Zhao Banzhi was only ten thousand zhang * (3.33m per zhang) away from him, the sovereign qi in his body was actually trembling!
His expression changed and he looked at Ning Fan in disbelief.
"How many traces of sovereign qi does this young man have? He actually made my sovereign qi fear him!"
"However, this young man is really arrogant. Looking at his expression, it seems like he doesn't put us in his eyes at all."
Zhao Banzhi sneered and said with a clear voice. "I am Zhao Banzhi. The reason why I came to the Rain World today is to demand an explanation from Fellow Daoist Ning. The outside world has been saying that Fellow Daoist Ning killed the previous Rain Sovereign. Is this true?! "
Zhao Banzhi firmly believed that Ning Fan was just putting on an act. In fact, he was extremely afraid of the experts of the Mountain World.
He firmly believed that Ning Fan did not have the strength to kill Yun Zongxuan and he had never killed him before.
He firmly believed that Ning Fan could only lower his head and admit his mistake in the face of his questioning.
If Ning Fan was sensible and gave him half of the wealth of the Rain Palace, he would stop while he was ahead and not teach Ning Fan a lesson.
If Ning Fan did not know what was good for him, even if Zhao Banzhi did not dare to publicly kill the Rain Sovereign and provoke the investigation of the deacons of the Upper World, he would still severely injure Ning Fan and kill him to his heart's content in Seven Apricot City to teach Ning Fan a painful lesson!
The Rain World was the weakest in the Nine Worlds. The weak were born to be bullied by the strong!
Ning Fan did not answer Zhao Banzhi's question. Instead, he glanced at the crowd below him and pointed at one of them. "You, come up here."
"Yes!"
The cultivator who was pointed at by Ning Fan immediately flew into the sky and bowed respectfully to Ning Fan.
He was a revered elder of the Rain Palace. His cultivation base was at the Mid Divine Transformation Realm.
Ever since Ning Fan became the Divine Sovereign of the Rain World, Li Cangtian had sent many revered elders of the Rain Palace to listen to Ning Fan's orders.
Now that Ning Fan was the Rain Sovereign, this revered elder naturally did not dare to show any disrespect to him.
"Let me ask you. According to the agreement between the Nine Worlds, can cultivators from another world enter my Rain World without the permission of the Divine Sovereign of this world?" Ning Fan asked indifferently.
"According to the rules, they can't. However, if the cultivators who enter the Rain World do not have any malicious intent, no one will usually pursue the matter." That revered elder answered respectfully.
"If the cultivators from another world intrude my Rain World and die here, how should we deal with this matter?" Ning Fan asked again.
"Death cannot atone for their crimes. No one will pursue the matter. However, under normal circumstances, only Void Fragmentation Realm old monsters can intrude into other worlds. No one will kill a Void Fragmentation Realm old monster. "That revered elder answered again.
"Alright. You can go down now."
Ning Fan gave an indifferent order and that revered elder immediately descended to the ground.
Ning Fan raised his head and his eyes suddenly swept across the five old monsters of the Mountain World.
"All of you have heard it. If you die in the Rain World, the Mountain World will not pursue the matter."
"If the cultivators who intrude my Rain World do not have any malicious intent, it is not necessary for me to kill them. However, all of you wanted to harm the cultivators of my Rain World without saying anything. It seems like your malicious intent is not light … Since that is the case, you can just die in the Rain World!"
"I want to let all the worlds see if my Rain World is really the weakest in the Nine Worlds and can be bullied easily!"
"Senior Mu Luo, you deal with that Zhao Banzhi. Leave the rest to me!"
Mu Luo was stunned. Even he did not expect that Ning Fan would actually have killing intent towards the five cultivators of the Mountain World.
Zhao Banzhi and the others were stunned. Then, all of them raised their heads and laughed heartily.
"You're just a little kid with a bone age of one thousand years. You sure have a big mouth! Originally, I just wanted to gain some benefits from entering the Rain World. Since you don't know what's good for you, I won't say anything more. Fellow Daoist Hong Sha, I will leave this little kid to you. Fellow Daoist Taiyuan, Fellow Daoist Ju Yue, the two of you hold Mu Luo back. Fellow Daoist Xumi, follow this old man and slaughter this city! "
As soon as Zhao Banzhi finished speaking, the sect master of the Red Sand Sect who had lost three percent of his cultivation base immediately burst into laughter. He held a blood-red banner in his hand and rushed towards Ning Fan.
"Sinful Cloud Rain Sovereign, grant me your guidance!"
The sect master of the Red Sand Sect sneered. He did not put Ning Fan in his eyes at all.
He waved the blood-red banner and countless blood-red ghosts immediately surrounded Ning Fan.
The eyes of these ghostly figures were lifeless. If a cultivator were to come into contact with these ghostly figures, they would lose a great deal of their essence blood. If one touched it too much, they would die under the attacks of the ghostly shadows.
This treasure could instantly kill a Shatter cultivator. Even an ordinary Shatter cultivator wouldn't be able to block the attack of the ghost shadow.
"Destroy!"
Ning Fan's Second Heavenly Layer Void Fragmentation Realm aura force suddenly soared into the sky. Sword light flashed from his sword and a black sword sense spread across the entire sky. Each of the ghostly shadows that were struck by the sword sense died instantly!
"Second Heavenly Layer of the Void Fragmentation Realm! Didn't the reports say that he was a Demolisher? "The five Mountain Realm eccentrics were visibly taken aback.
So what if it was broken in two? It was only slightly stronger than Shatter One, but it wasn't worth mentioning to the five of them.
"Red Sand Formation, open!"
The sect master of the Red Sand Sect waved the blood-red banner again. All of a sudden, an enormous blood-red formation diagram appeared in the sky.
This formation diagram was called the Red Sand Formation. It was powerful enough to instantly kill a Shatter cultivator!
Ning Fan did not say much. He took a step forward and transformed into his black robes. His eyes were as cold as ice, indifferent and emotionless.
At the moment he transformed into his incarnation, his cultivation base instantly skyrocketed to the Third Heavenly Layer Unrivalled Realm!
He raised his hand and extracted all the Earth Souls and Void Souls and swallowed them into his stomach.
Ning Fan's aura force rose steadily. In an instant, his cultivation base reached the Fourth Heavenly Layer of the Void Fragmentation Realm!
He lifted his foot and stomped on the ground. The red sand formation diagram shattered into countless blood-red light spots.
He lifted his finger and pointed at the ground. All of a sudden, a gigantic golden vortex appeared beneath the sect master's feet!
Outside of that golden vortex, there was another golden vortex that was even larger!
The two vortexes rotated violently in opposite directions, forming two completely opposite ripping forces.
"Spatial Strangulation …"
The expression of the sect master of the Red Sand Sect changed drastically. His lower body began to rotate clockwise with his waist as the center while his upper body began to rotate counter-clockwise.
It was his first time witnessing such a strange phenomenon!
It was as if there was a huge invisible hand twisting him like a towel!
Before he could react, his body had already been twisted into two by the spatial vortex force!
His physical body had been destroyed!
His primordial spirit escaped from the dismembered body in a panic and desperately tried to escape towards Zhao Banzhi and the others.
He was afraid! Terrified!
How could he have imagined that Ning Fan was not a First Heavenly Layer Void Fragmentation Realm weakling like the information he received? Instead, he was a Shatter Second Heavenly Layer Void Fragmentation Realm cultivator who could instantly raise his cultivation base to the Fourth Heavenly Layer of the Void Fragmentation Realm!
He was one cultivation level lower than Ning Fan. He was no match for Ning Fan at all!
"Fellow Daoist Red Sand, be careful!" Zhao Banzhi and the others shouted with a change of expression.
However, right in front of Red Sand's primordial spirit, another gigantic golden vortex suddenly appeared.
Red Sand was running too fast. He could not avoid it in time and directly fell into the vortex.
Then, he heard a miserable scream coming from within the vortex.
Red Sand was dead!
"Senior Mu Luo, go and deal with Zhao Banzhi. I only have three opponents left."
Ning Fan casually kept Red Sand's storage pouch. His eyes flashed with blood-red light and his baleful qi dyed the vast sky red!
After sensing Ning Fan's terrifying baleful qi and ferocious might, Zhao Banzhi and the others turned pale with fright.
"He … He … He killed a rogue immortal before! He killed a rogue immortal before!!! "
