After a night, Ning Fan finally managed to calm the raging sword intent.
Ning Fan fell into deep thought as he sensed the power of his Ninth Grade Sword Intent which had greatly increased.
Sword intent was much harder to cultivate than other intents. The God Intent Stone and the Tree God Fruit were both unable to raise the grade of the sword intent.
The best way to improve sword intent was to devour high-grade flying swords and high-grade sword intents.
The cultivation of sword intent was very difficult. Ning Fan knew that if he didn't put all his effort into cultivating the sword intent, the chance of him reaching the first grade was almost zero.
"Currently, I don't have enough time to cultivate the sword wholeheartedly. Sword technique is one of my many techniques, but it's not my Dao."
A messenger flying sword flew towards Ning Fan from the direction of the Godly Void Pavilion.
Ning Fan shattered the flying sword with one of his fingers. After listening to the voice transmission, his eyes flashed. Standing up, he stepped on the thick snow and walked out of Si Fan Palace towards the Godly Void Pavilion.
He walked all the way to the Little Demon Girl's chamber without anyone stopping him.
In the Godly Void Pavilion, the little demoness had already brewed the Qilin Tea and was waiting for Ning Fans arrival.
As soon as she saw Ning Fan, she immediately narrowed her eyes into a crescent shape and said with a smile. "Hubby, you have such a great reputation. You killed five Void Fragmentation Realm experts of the Mountain World in a row. Now, the entire Rain World is praising your strength."
"Really?"
Ning Fans sat in front of the little demoness, picked up the teacup and drank the Kirin Tea in one gulp.
Back then, he had yet to break through to the Void Fragmentation Realm and was unable to endure the medicinal power of the Qilin Tea. Now, however, he no longer had to worry about it.
"Is the tea brewed by my wife delicious?"
"Delicious … Let's get down to business. Are we going to the Immortal Burning Valley today? "Ning Fan felt a little helpless. The little demoness was still pretending to be his Dao companion.
"Yes. I've agreed to meet He Daozi and the others in the Immortal-Burning Valley. They'll be a bit late, so let's go wait there. Oh, by the way, there's one thing I haven't asked for your permission on … Without your permission, I wouldn't dare ask for a third helper. You know that He Shixiu and I will each hire three helpers to help us obtain the map. You're one of the three helpers. As for the other two … Guess who the second helper is? Hint, she is from the Rain World. "
The little demoness pretended to look at Ning Fan innocently, but it was all an act.
Ning Fan was startled. He didn't think that the third helper that the Little Demoness wanted to find needed his approval before she dared to invite him.
"Who is the second helper?" Ning Fan obviously did not have the mood to guess.
"Red Shirt. You can also call her Thunder Emperor Bu Zhou. I heard that you have an ambiguous relationship with Hong Yi … Is that true? "
The little demoness quietly looked at Ning Fan. She noticed that when Ning Fan heard that the second helper was Hong Yi, he only slightly twitched his eyelids without much surprise.
After all, the Little Demon Girl had already said that the second helper was someone from the Rain World.
From Ning Fan's point of view, there were no outstanding experts in the Rain World. It was not surprising for the little demoness to take a fancy to Hong Yi and make her her helper.
"Who is the third helper that you want to invite?" Ning Fan continued to ask.
"The third helper is … Her! Her physique is useful for the fourth stage of the Immemorial Realm … "The little demon girl took out a scroll and opened it.
What was drawn in the scroll was an innocent and pure young girl.
Zhihe …
"No!"
Ning Fans eyes were resolute. There was no room for discussion and he directly rejected the little demoness' suggestion.
Letting Zhihe participate in the journey to retrieve the map? What a joke!
Even though Ning Fan did not know what kind of dangers they would encounter on the way to retrieve the map, he firmly believed that even a Void Fragmentation expert would have a slim chance of survival.
At the very least, they would need a Void Fragmentation cultivation base to barely protect themselves.
Zhihe was just a Gold Core Realm cultivator. If she goes to such a dangerous place, she would certainly not have the strength to protect herself. Ning Fan also did not have absolute confidence to ensure her safety.
"I have a treasure. If I give it to her to protect herself, she will be very safe. As long as nothing happens in the five stages of the Immemorial Realm, Zhihe will not be in any danger. "
"What if there is an accident? There is no need to mention this again! "
Ning Fan's tone was too firm and his eyes were too stubborn.
It was the little demoness' first time seeing such a Ning Fan.
"As expected, Zhihe is very important to him …"
The little demoness felt a little empty in her heart, as if she had already predicted this situation. She nodded and said, "Alright, I won't let her go. On our side, only you, Hong Yi and I will go."
"My travelling light is faster than you, so I will go first. After you are done with the matters in Seven Apricot City, come and meet me in the Immortal Burning Valley. Take a look at this jade slip. There is a detailed introduction of the Immortal Burning Valley in it … "
Without saying anything else, the little demoness put down a jade slip on the table, stood up and walked out of the pavilion. She turned into a ray of light and disappeared in a flash.
She had not finished her tea, but she was no longer in the mood to drink.
Her cultivation base had gradually recovered to the Sixth Heavenly Layer of the Void Fragmentation Realm.
"Is she throwing a tantrum?" Ning Fan was startled. He was not stupid. He could naturally see that the little demoness was a little different from usual.
She did not call him Little Fan Fan nor did she call him husband. She did not even have the intention to pester him. She actually left alone.
Was it because Ning Fan did not agree to let Zhihe go with him?
Ning Fan shook his head.
If the little demoness was unhappy because of this reason, Ning Fan would not care even if she was angered to death.
No matter what, Ning Fan would not let Zhihe be in danger. She should not be involved in the matters of the cultivation world.
After carefully reading the jade slip, Ning Fan's figure flashed and returned to Si Fan Palace. He informed everyone about the matter of going to the Immortal Burning Valley and Li Cangtian.
He left 12 Thunder Shock Seeds in Seven Apricot City and gave them to Yue Lingkong to defend against the possible enemies.
Then, he took out the ancient golden sword and left.
The little demoness was not throwing a tantrum. She was just a little disappointed and unspeakable annoyed.
She was so disappointed that she could not even fake a smile. She no longer had the mood to be entangled with Ning Fan.
No, no, no …
Because Ning Fan cared about Zhihe, he would never let her be in danger.
Then what about her … If one day, she returned to the Eastern Heaven Godly Void Pavilion. If one day, she was forced to die by the old monsters in the pavilion, would Ning Fan care about her like how he cared about Zhihe …
Would Ning Fan protect her behind him in front of countless True Immortals and say 'no'?
It shouldn't be …
She was not angry, she was just jealous …
"Xiao Qianci, Xiao Qianci, you are actually jealous of the descendant of Ancient Chaos … This is not like you."
The little demoness closed her eyes and silently recited the scripture of the Void Scripture while flying.
After a long time, all of her distracting thoughts disappeared, and what replaced them was the same smiling expression that she always had.
"Yes, this is how I should be. Little Fan Fan or whatever, it's enough to be ambiguous, there's no need to be true. I only need to follow the ancestor's instructions and pester him. There's no need to think about other things that I shouldn't think about. "
"After all, one day, I will be pushed out to die. The so-called Godly Void Young Pavilion Master may look glamorous on the surface, but in reality, he is just a sacrificial offering. "
The little demoness flew with a smile on her face. That smile was still a disguise.
...
One had to admit that after the little demoness's cultivation base recovered to the Six Break Realm, her speed became faster.
Even an ordinary Eight Break Realm cultivator would not be able to travel at such a speed. Ning Fan naturally could not catch up to her.
Ning Fan stood on the tip of the ancient sword and occasionally took out immortal jades and placed them into the groove of the ancient sword.
He flew across the Middle State towards the Northwest Continent of the Rain Immortal World.
His destination was the West Flame Country in the Northwest Continent. The Immortal Burning Valley was located in the West Flame Country!
Along the way, he passed by countless cultivation countries. None of the grand formations that locked the countries could stop him.
Along the way, when they saw the cultivation base of the golden sword light, their eyes were filled with admiration and even fanaticism.
They knew that the person who flew across the sky was their Lord Rain Sovereign – Ning Fan!
When Yun Zongxuan was in charge of the Rain World, it had always been known as the weakest in the Nine Worlds and was often bullied by others.
In the past, when Moksha Sovereign entered the Rain World to kill people, Yun Zongxuan did not even let out a fart.
The incidents of Moksha Sovereign entering the Rain World to kill people had happened countless times. Every time, Yun Zongxuan would just remain silent.
Four thousand years ago, there was even a Sixth Break Realm devil cultivator who openly entered the Rain World and massacred four high-grade cultivation countries. He sacrificed the lives of countless cultivators and mortals to refine his soul banner.
At that time, Yun Zongxuan still remained silent …
Six thousand years ago, there was once an unrivalled Fifth Break Realm old monster who entered the Rain World and 'borrowed' some Dao Crystals from the Rain Palace to cultivate.
Yun Zongxuan gritted his teeth and still gave the Dao Crystals to that person. Although he also understood that the person would never return the Dao Crystals of the Rain Palace to him.
When Yun Zongxuan was in charge of the Rain World, he would only suppress the cultivators of the world, plot against the Thunder Sovereign and deal with Yun Tianjue … He was very cautious towards outsiders. He did not dare to act recklessly as he was afraid that he would bring great trouble upon himself.
What he loved the most in his life was to get himself into trouble. What he hated the most was to bend his knees and lower his head to others.
This kind of unyielding character was very deadly. If he did not have a powerful trump card, it would be very easy for him to get himself into trouble and be killed by a powerful enemy that he could not afford to offend.
Therefore, Ning Fan kept searching for trump cards that could save his life and keep becoming stronger. He wanted to become an existence that others could not afford to offend.
All of this was just to prevent his soul from bending his knees and lowering his head to anyone.
If he were to compare himself to the emperors of the mortal world, Ning Fan was not a benevolent monarch who ruled the world but a tyrant who expanded his territory.
After traveling for a few days, the West Flame Country was already right in front of him.
As soon as he entered the country, he saw a ray of fiery light shooting up into the sky from the center of the country.
The location of that fiery light was the Immortal Burning Valley.
There used to be an ancient sect in the Immortal Burning Valley which was called the Shedding Orchid Sect.
After the Shedding Orchid Sect was destroyed, the Immortal Burning Valley became a dangerous place. At the same time, it also hid countless opportunities of the Shedding Orchid Sect.
Countless cultivators of the Rain World were keen on coming to this place to try their luck and obtain opportunities.
The valley was filled with endless dangers. Those below the Nascent Soul Realm could not even enter the outer region of the Immortal Burning Valley.
Even if a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator were to enter the outer region, most of them would only be able to survive.
In order to enter the valley, one must at least have an Absolute Void Stage cultivation base. Only then would one be able to break through the flame formation of the valley and enter the valley.
In the deepest part of the valley, there was a place called the Fallen Abyss. Immortal flames interweaved in the abyss. Even the Rain Sovereign could not enter that place.
According to the Rain Sovereign, the Fallen Abyss contained the Emergence Pill … In the past, the Rain Sovereign had used Ning Fan and protected him in order to obtain this rare and elusive Emergence Pill …
Other than the Fallen Abyss, there were countless other abyss in the valley. One of them was called the Immemorial Abyss.
According to the little demoness, the Immemorial Fisherman and Woven Cowhide Basket Painting was hidden in this Immemorial Abyss.
In order to obtain the painting, one would need to pass five tests and one door.
The five tests referred to the five tests of the Immemorial Five Tests. Each of them was extremely dangerous. Ning Fan had no idea about the specifics.
The one door referred to the door of the forbidden area. According to the little demoness, one must gather all six keys in order to open the door of the forbidden area.
The name of the key was the Shedding Orchid Key … It was a type of key that was made from Blue Wandering Gold.
Only by gathering all six Shedding Orchid Keys could one open the door of the forbidden area. Unfortunately, He Daozi only had three Shedding Orchid Keys while the little demoness only had two.
There was still one more key that they could not find …
Therefore, they were prepared to forcefully blast open the door of the forbidden area of the Shedding Orchid Sect. However, if they do that, there would be many unknown twists and turns …
"The last Shedding Orchid Key seems to be in my hands …"
Standing on the ancient sword, Ning Fan flicked his sleeve and took out a bronze key.
He had obtained it by accident when he cut the divine chests on Pill Island in the past.
He did not expect that this key would come in handy during this trip to search for the map.
The little demoness left too quickly. Ning Fan did not have the time to tell her that he had the sixth key.
Forget it. About the key, I'll talk about it after I pass the five trials of the ancient times and arrive at the giant door of the forbidden area.
Ning Fan flew all the way into the Immortal Burning Valley. The Immortal Burning Valley was huge. It was comparable to a high-grade cultivation country.
The outer area was filled with endless mountains and dense forests. The yin qi in this place was extremely dense and there were many ghosts and spirits living there.
Most of the ghosts were at the Gold Core Realm and above. Occasionally, there would be some Nascent Soul Realm and Divine Transformation Realm ghosts wandering in the outer area.
These ghosts had low intelligence. Occasionally, some of them would fly into the sky and try to attack Ning Fan. However, they were all destroyed by his sword sense.
After flying for hundreds of millions of li *, Ning Fan arrived at the inner part of the Immortal Burning Valley.
The inner part of the valley was surrounded by layers of green flames which formed an extremely powerful fire formation.
It was impossible for cultivators who were not at the Absolute Void Stage to get through this fire formation.
Ning Fan kept the ancient sword and landed on the ground. He carefully studied the green flames.
These green flames seemed to be the seed fire of some kind of immortal fire …
Could it be the immortal fire in the Fallen Abyss?
"Devour!"
Ning Fan opened his mouth and inhaled. The green flames on the fire formation turned into green fire lotuses and were all swallowed by him.
Gradually, the entire fire formation was devoured by Ning Fan.
From today onwards, there were no more fire formations in this place. Even if one's cultivation base was not at the Absolute Void Stage, he could still enter the inner part of the valley.
Of course, the inner part of the valley was incomparably dangerous. Without an Absolute Void Stage cultivation base, one would be courting death if he or she enters.
"The Fire Elemental Body of the Minor Five Elements Physique has reached the Great Perfection stage. Is this the power of the seed fire of the immortal fire …? "
"If I head to the Fallen Abyss and devour all the immortal fire, my Fire Elemental Body should be able to reach the Great Perfection stage in one go."
The reason why Ning Fan entered the Immortal Burning Valley this time was to head to the Fallen Abyss.
Be it the immortal fire or the Emergence Pill, both of them were extremely tempting to him.
The Rain Sovereign was already dead. If Ning Fan obtains the Emergence Pill, he would naturally consume it himself.
The little demoness should still be waiting for him in the Ancient Abyss. During this period of time, he would head to the Fallen Abyss to collect the Emergence Pill.
Ning Fan turned into a ray of light and flew towards the direction of the Fallen Abyss.
The information that the little demoness gave him included the map of the entire Immortal Burning Valley. Many locations that were filled with illusory formations were marked out.
With this information, Ning Fan would be able to avoid all the dangers and reach the Fallen Abyss.
The yin qi inside the valley was denser than the outside. There was a special type of undead spirit in this place – vengeful spirit.
This kind of vengeful spirit was born from the resentment of the dead. It would gather and disperse at times.
Sometimes, the resentment would gather and form Void Refinement Realm vengeful spirits to besiege those who enter the valley.
Sometimes, the resentment would gather and form Void Fragmentation Realm vengeful spirits that would kill in all directions.
Even a Void Fragmentation Realm vengeful spirit could not live for too long. It could only live for seven days at most. Then, its spiritual body would dissipate and turn back into resentment, which would then condense into other vengeful spirits.
If a vengeful spirit dies, it would also turn back into resentment.
Theoretically speaking, if the resentment in this place is not eliminated, there would be no end to the vengeful spirits.
Knowing that there might be Void Fragmentation Realm vengeful spirits in this place, Ning Fan directly activated his Flowing Light Ring and flew away while concealing himself, avoiding a lot of trouble.
One hour later, he arrived at the Fallen Abyss.
It was an abyss filled with a boundless sea of fire. The sea of fire was green in color and would turn into the shape of a green lotus. It was an immortal fire.
It was unknown how deep the abyss was. The Emergence Pill was most likely at the bottom of the sea of fire.
Ning Fan did not enter the sea of fire rashly. Looking at the sea of immortal fire from a close distance gave him a terrifying feeling.
If he enters the sea of fire rashly, he would certainly end up dead. His only hope of survival was still the power of the Stele of Sun and Moon that could restrain the immortal fire.
Currently, the Stele of Sun and Moon had absorbed two Yang spirits and one Yin spirit. However, it was still not enough to restrain the immortal fire.
Ning Fan's cultivation base was at the Second Heavenly Layer of the Void Fragmentation Realm. In front of the immortal fire, this level of cultivation base was not worth mentioning.
As for the Minor Five Elements Body … Ning Fan's Minor Five Elements Body had yet to attain the Great Perfection of the fire element.
His body's defensive power against fire was still very limited.
If he could attain the Great Perfection of the fire element, even if it was not as good as the Inextinguishable Fire Body, it would still be useful.
At that time, with the protection of the Minor Five Elements Body and the Stele of Sun and Moon, Ning Fan had full confidence that he would not die after entering the sea of immortal fire.
As for the idea of taking the immortal fire away, Ning Fan temporarily dismissed it.
His current cultivation base was not enough to subdue the immortal fire. If he forcefully takes it away, he would probably be burned to ashes by the immortal fire …
If the immortal fire was that easy to be subdued, it would have been taken by the Rain Sovereign a long time ago. Why would it stay here and hinder others from taking the Emergence Pill?
"I should try to perfect my Fire Elemental Physique first."
Ning Fan sat cross-legged on the ground. He raised his hand and drew out balls of green flames from the sea of flames, refining them one after another.
Although he could not take away the Celestial Fire for the time being, he could use the Celestial Fire to cultivate the Lesser Five Elements Constitution.
The grade of the Immortal Fire was very high. Even if one cultivated the Great Five Elements Constitution, they could use it.
Using it to cultivate the Lesser Five Elements Constitution was really overkill.
Balls of green flames were refined into Ning Fan's body. The Perfection Stage of his Fire Elemental Physique began to rise slowly.
6%, 7%, 8% …
One day later, Ning Fan's Fire Elemental Physique had reached perfection.
His body's strength had increased, but the Ancient Devil's cultivation did not increase by a small realm like when he had perfected the Wood Element.
His cultivation base was still at the peak of the Reckless Devil Realm. He was unable to break through to the Supreme Devil Realm with the help of the Fire Elemental Perfection.
Venerated Demonic Venerate was a major realm. If he wanted to break through, just perfecting one of his constitutions was not enough.
Ning Fan stood up and looked at the sea of immortal flames in front of him. It was no longer as terrifying as before.
Now that his Fire Elemental Physique was perfected, his physical body's defense against fire had risen to an extremely heaven-defying level.
With the protection of the Stele of Sun and Moon, as long as he was careful, he would be able to advance and retreat calmly in the immortal flames.
After absorbing the flames for one day, the sea of immortal flames did not reduce at all.
Ning Fan withdrew his gaze and took out a fiery-red pill to consume.
This pill was called the Fire Resistance Pill. It was a Low Grade Seventh Revolution Pill. It could improve a cultivator's fire defense for two hours.
After refining the pill, Ning Fan stepped on the sea of immortal flames.
Immediately, he felt a scorching sensation under his feet. His skin felt like it was about to be burnt.
As the power of the Stele of Sun and Moon spread to Ning Fan's body, the scorching sensation decreased a little.
Even though it was still scorching hot, it would not cause any damage to his body.
After making sure that he would be fine after stepping on the immortal flames, Ning Fan's eyes flashed with determination. With a flash, he dived into the sea of flames.
The lower he went, the higher the temperature of the immortal flames became.
In the end, even with the protection of the Stele of Sun and Moon, Ning Fan's skin began to burn.
One should know that this period of time was when the Yin Qi in the Immortal Burning Valley was at its densest and the power of the immortal flames was at its weakest.
Moreover, the Rain Sovereign had been using the Sovereign Rain to extinguish fire for many years.
Even so, Ning Fan could not help but be amazed by the power of the immortal flames.
If other cultivators enter the sea of flames, even if they are at the Seventh or Eighth Fragmentation Realm, they would probably die in the sea of flames …
If the power of the immortal flames is at its peak, even a Rogue Immortal expert would have a high chance of dying in the sea of flames …
When Ning Fan gradually could not endure the heat of the immortal flames anymore, the ground beneath his feet suddenly disappeared and he fell into a cool stone chamber.
The stone chamber was equipped with a fire-isolating formation which isolated the immortal flames from the outside world.
Ning Fan scanned his surroundings. He realized that this stone chamber was a pill refinement room. There was a door but he did not know where it led to.
The floor was covered with dust. The pill furnace had also decayed a long time ago.
There was also a skeleton lying inside the pill refinement room. It was unknown how many years it had been since it died.
The bones of this skeleton were rather smooth and shiny. It was glowing with illusory light. It was obvious that the cultivation base of the owner of this skeleton was definitely not weak when he was alive. At the very least, he was a Void Fragmentation Realm cultivator.
There were some jade slips on the bookshelf. Most of them had been damaged.
Ning Fan took the few jade slips that were not damaged and carefully read them.
Inside these jade slips were the Seven Revolution Pill Recipes of the Shedding Orchid Sect …
After Ning Fan read through the jade slips, they seemed to be unable to withstand the power of his spirit sense and turned into ashes.
Fortunately, Ning Fan had already memorized the pill recipes in his mind. Thus, he did not lose anything.
There was nothing else worthy of his attention in this pill refinement room. Ning Fan walked towards the door of the pill refinement room.
After passing through the stone door, he entered the next pill refinement room.
There was also a Void Fragmentation Realm skeleton in this pill refinement room …
Ning Fan walked down the stairs and passed through hundreds of pill refinement rooms.
There were Void Fragmentation Realm cultivators who had died in all of the pill refinement rooms.
Eventually, he arrived at the end of all the pill refinement rooms. It was the last stone chamber in this place!
Inside the stone chamber, there was a massive pond of spiritual liquid. The spiritual liquid in the pond had already dried up.
At the bottom of the pond, there were four pills lying quietly.
Among the four pills, three of them were just semi-finished products. They had yet to be completed.
There was only one pill which was glowing with a mysterious light.
It was a Low Grade Eight Revolution Pill!
That pill gave off a wisp of pill fragrance which had been sealed for many years. Ning Fan just sniffed it and he could feel that his magic power had increased by half a yuan.
"This is … the Emergence Pill!"
When a Void Fragmentation Realm cultivator consumes the Emergence Pill, there was a very small chance for him to directly break through to the Life Immortal Realm and ascend to become an immortal!
Even if he could not ascend to the Immortal Realm in one go, he could still increase the cultivation base of a Void Fragmentation Realm cultivator by one layer!
This was the pill that Yun Zongxuan could not forget even after he died! (To be continued.)
