His intuition told him that this Kuang San was not easy to deal with.
Suddenly, Ning Fan's eyes flashed. He seemed to have noticed something extremely interesting from Kuang San.
As for Kuang San, his eyes were also sizing up Ning Fan in an unnoticeable manner.
Suddenly, he grinned at Ning Fan and sent him a telepathic message. "I have come especially for you. Don't disappoint me."
"Is that so …" Ning Fans eyes turned cold.
"After the first round of the competition begins, the first half of an incense stick of time will pass, and the second half of an incense stick of time will determine the victor. The loser will hand over all their emblems. How about it?" Kuang San said confidently.
"Sure."
Ning Fan's eyes flashed. No one knew what he was thinking about.
Kuang San, on the other hand, looked at the Yuan Yao Jade between Ning Fan's fingers and the corners of his mouth curled into an inexplicable smile.
"Let's see how powerful you are to be able to move Xiaoman like this," Mad Three said in his heart.
Ning Fan withdrew his gaze and no longer looked at Kuang San. In his mind, he was pondering about the reason why Kuang San came.
He had already seen through this person's secret.
He could also tell that this person was coming for him.
But what was this person's purpose …
He calmed his heart and closed his eyes, sweeping away all the distracting thoughts in his mind.
When he opened his eyes again, they were terrifyingly calm, like a black pond. No one could see through his thoughts.
Qian Tuzi's gaze swept through the crowd. Seeing that there were no other competitors after Kuang San, he nodded and suddenly shot the spirit arrow in his hand into the sky.
The spirit arrow turned into a streak of scarlet light and shot into the sky with a whistling sound. It exploded in the night sky and shook the heavens!
This was the signal for the competition to begin!
At this moment, countless participants with strong cultivations moved, extending their sharp claws towards those with weaker cultivations.
All of a sudden, monstrous baleful qi spread out from his body. With a single step, he launched an attack at all the cultivators within a ten thousand zhang * (3.33m per zhang) radius!
There were nineteen cultivators in the area, the weakest of whom was a Seventh Demolisher, and three were Rogue Immortals.
These people were preparing to show off their skills in the first round of the competition, but before they could do anything, they suddenly felt a pain in their chests. Like kites with their strings cut, they were sent flying, coughing up blood and heavily injured!
The 19 prodigies did not even see who attacked them before they fell to the ground like a pile of mud.
When they saw who had attacked them, their expressions changed drastically, and they revealed expressions of fear!
"Old … Old Demon Qianqiu!"
The storage pouches on their waists had already been taken away by Ning Fan.
Ning Fan held the 19 storage pouches in his hand and casually took out the Dao Crystals, pills, slaughter badges and other useful items from them.
As for the cultivation techniques of the prodigies, he did not touch any of them and casually tossed their storage bags back.
Ning Fan was not an idiot. At the very least, these 19 heavenly prides came from Life Immortal Realm forces. Some of them even came from True Immortal Realm forces.
Even though killing was allowed in the first round of the grand competition, Ning Fan would not act recklessly unless it was someone he must kill. He would also not seize the secret techniques and cultivation methods of these people.
Doing so would offend countless Life Immortals and Perfected Immortals.
Ning Fan was not afraid of offending people, but meaningless offending was not something he liked.
Like a bolt of lightning, he dashed toward the group of sky-prides in the distance.
As soon as those geniuses saw Ning Fan rushing towards them, all of their faces turned pale with fright. All of them hurriedly retreated, not daring to fight against Ning Fan!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Each of the prodigies was severely injured and sent flying by Ning Fan almost at the same time. All of their storage pouches were taken away by Ning Fan. Just like before, he only took the unimportant items and did not take the cultivation methods and secret techniques of the various sects.
On the two jade platforms, countless old monsters' gazes instantly locked onto Ning Fan.
The grand competition had just begun for a few breaths but Ning Fan had already knocked down nearly one hundred prodigies. Such overwhelming strength was not something ordinary prodigies could withstand!
The elders of those prodigies who fell to the ground were initially worried that Ning Fan would kill them. When they saw that Ning Fan only injured them and did not take their lives, they heaved a sigh of relief.
Yao Qingyun frowned. She did not expect Ning Fan to be so strong. None of the prodigies below the Life Immortal Realm could withstand a single blow from him.
"Qingyun, you have miscalculated." The Nether Sea Immortal King suddenly spoke with a smile.
"What do you mean, Great Elder?"
"The rule that you added not only did not cause any trouble to this young man, but it also helped him instead. In my opinion, this young man has a stubborn character. He never planned to win with the help of external forces. He did not plan to use any of his trump cards. Your rule restricted the other participants, preventing them from taking out the trump cards that their elders gave them. Without that rule, many of the participants would have taken out the attack jade slips of the Life Immortal Realm. I'm afraid this young man would have a tough battle. "
"You … helped him!"
As soon as the Nether Sea Immortal King finished speaking, Yao Qingyun was instantly stunned on the spot.
She had helped him. She had actually helped her enemy!
"Qingyun, if I didn't know about the grudge between you and this young man, I would have thought that you are using your position for personal gain to pave the way for him so that he can easily win the championship." The Nether Sea Immortal King laughed evilly.
"Great Elder, please don't joke around! I have an irreconcilable grudge with him. Why would I help him?! "Yao Qingyun was so angry that she wanted to stomp her feet.
"An irreconcilable grudge? Not necessarily … If I didn't pass by the Yao Family and save you, you would have already become the cauldron of the Life Immortals of the Yao Family … Can you forget that kind of humiliation …? "
"…" Yao Qingyun's eyes dimmed. She did not say anything else.
What happened in the past was a pain in her heart. She did not want to talk about it.
"You are no longer a member of the Yao Family. In my opinion, it's better not to take revenge." The Nether Sea Immortal King said in a serious tone.
"…" Yao Qingyun clenched her fists tightly. There was a hint of struggle in her eyes.
Perhaps the Great Elder was right. The Yao Family had betrayed her first. There was really no need for her to stand up for the Yao Family.
However …
Yao Qingyun looked at Ning Fan who was unstoppable in the inner city. Her eyes suddenly flashed with anger.
She just could not stand the sight of him!
Yao Qingyun's expression fell into the Nether Sea Immortal King's eyes and turned into a deeper smile.
"Interesting." He muttered to himself indifferently. No one knew what he was thinking.
Even though Ning Fan was the person with the most outstanding battle result, he was not the only one who was in the limelight.
Yao Li of the Yao Family, Chi Zhen of the Siyao Sect, Kuang San, the traitor of the Deep Earth Sect and Yu Kun, a Life Immortal rogue cultivator. The four of them suppressed the other cultivators with their Profound Mortal Realm cultivation base.
The first round of the competition seemed to have become an exhibition match for Ning Fan and the other four experts.
Time passed by slowly. Ning Fan had already sent more than three thousand Eastern Sky's geniuses flying. Finally, he attracted Yu Kun's attention.
Yu Kun was an Early Profound Mortal Realm rogue cultivator with a bone age of twenty-eight thousand years. The fact that he could reach this stage without relying on any force was enough to prove that he was very powerful.
Yu Kun's eyes glowed with a kind of light. It was the light of pursuing strength!
He fancied Ning Fan's strength. Therefore, he wanted to defeat Ning Fan!
If Ning Fan had the Spirit Blast Technique and the offensive jade slip, he would not dare to attack recklessly.
Now, none of them could use any external means. They could only fight fairly with their own strength. It couldn't be better!
He did not believe that he would lose to Ning Fan!
Yu Kun's body was surrounded by a ray of moonlight blade light. That blade light was extremely agile. The cold qi it carried was enough to freeze the land of a few li * (500m per li).
He walked towards Ning Fan step by step. Wherever Yu Kun walked, the ground would turn into ice.
When the participants saw Yu Kun walking towards Ning Fan, they quickly retreated, not daring to get involved in the battle between the two experts.
They could not wait for Ning Fan and Yu Kun to fight for as long as possible. As long as they can drag the battle for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the grand competition would end. Then, they could hand in their badges and advance to the second round.
"'Misty Moon Blade', Yu Kun!" Yu Kun stopped walking ten thousand zhang * (3.33m per li) away from Ning Fan and announced his name.
"Ning Fan." Ning Fan also announced his name indifferently. His entire body was on guard against Yu Kun's attack.
Although his voice was not loud, it traveled far. Countless old monsters were stunned when they heard Ning Fan's name.
So, Old Ancestor Qian Qiu's mortal name is Ning Fan …
"Brother Ning, take my blade!"
Yu Kun shouted. He suddenly raised his hand and pointed a finger at Ning Fan from afar.
The moonlight blade light that was circling around his body immediately turned into a cold and sharp aurora, slashing towards Ning Fan's face!
Ning Fan's eyes turned slightly serious. Yu Kun's blade was enough to severely injure an Early Profound Mortal Realm expert!
With this blade technique, Yu Kun could be considered as an Early Profound Mortal Realm expert.
However, it was not enough to hurt him with this technique!
Ning Fan quickly retreated. His fingers were wrapped with black flames and he lifted his finger to point at the sharp blade light.
As soon as he pointed at it, the cold Qi of the blade light shrunk by a lot. Ning Fan borrowed the counterforce to retreat even faster. His attacks were also faster. He pointed at the blade light sixteen times!
From the beginning to the end, Ning Fan had pointed at the blade light seventeen times with his fingers.
Under these seventeen points, the cold Qi on the blade light was completely incinerated. The blade light that was initially sharp suddenly shattered, turning into crystal fragments that scattered all over the ground!
"The Misty Moon Blade is broken!"
Countless participants were shocked. They naturally knew how powerful Yu Kun's Misty Moon Blade was. Its sharpness was secondary, its coldness was the most frightening part.
Once the Misty Moon Blade was used, it was rare for an Early Profound Mortal Realm expert to not be frozen.
Everyone stared at the black flames between Ning Fan's fingers in shock. All of them were greatly shocked.
"Immortal Fire! A Mid Grade Eighth Level Immortal Fire! "
Even a Late Profound Mortal Realm expert would not be able to withstand the power of a Mid Grade Eighth Level Immortal Fire!
It was their first time hearing that Ning Fan actually cultivated such a powerful devil fire!
Yu Kun's eyes were also filled with shock. He had never thought that his natal magic treasure, the Misty Moon Blade, would be destroyed by Ning Fan in just a single move!
While he was still in shock, Ning Fan's figure flashed and appeared in front of Yu Kun like a ghost. He said indifferently. "You've lost."
Before his voice faded away, an extremely terrifying palm imprint of black flames had already been sent out by Ning Fan, hitting Yu Kun's chest.
Yu Kun hurriedly summoned his Peak Divine Profound Realm treasure armor to defend himself. However, the armor was instantly burnt to ashes.
With a loud bang, Yu Kun's body seemed to have been burnt into charcoal. He flew backwards like a kite with a broken string and fell heavily on the ground. He was barely breathing.
Ning Fan approached him step by step and calmly took off Yu Kun's storage pouch. He took out some useful items and returned the pouch.
"Next time, I won't be defeated so easily!" Yu Kun uttered those words unwillingly and fainted right away.
The entire city was shocked!
Those with discerning eyes could see that Ning Fan's fire palm was not a type of magic technique or ability. It was just the power of the immortal fire condensed into a fire palm.
Even so, he was able to defeat Yu Kun who was an Early Profound Realm expert with just a single palm strike!
If Ning Fan was proficient in a type of fire technique, he would probably be able to kill a Mid Profound Realm expert or even a Late Profound Realm expert with just a single palm strike!
"This Old Devil Qian Qiu is really powerful. He actually defeated Yu Kun with just a single strike!"
Countless participants were filled with fear. While they were still in a daze, Ning Fan's figure flashed and attacked forcefully, sending the participants flying away one after another. He seized the Slaughter Badges and some other items along the way.
"He's a devil!" Among the audience seats, a little child who was serving a True Immortal Realm old monster said with trembling lips.
"He's a bandit!" A seven or eight-year-old little girl who was following behind the True Immortal Realm old monster said in a trembling voice.
"If you don't sleep on time tonight, that Old Devil Qian Qiu will find you and eat you!" A Du Zhen female cultivator who was already a mother threatened the mischievous child in her arms.
When the child heard that he would be eaten by Ning Fan if he didn't sleep, he immediately burst into tears.
"Cry again! Old Devil Qian Qiu will come and eat you immediately! "The Du Zhen female cultivator reprimanded.
"I, I won't cry anymore! Mother, I beg you to protect me! "The child immediately wiped his tears and sobbed while trying to please his mother.
The Du Zhen female cultivator was overjoyed. It seemed like using Ning Fan's fierce name to scare her obedient son was a good way to educate him.
Well, Ning Fan's fierce name could already be used to stop a child from crying.
Ning Fan's figure was like lightning, shuttling back and forth in the inner city, sending each and every participant flying.
Counting carefully, there were nearly six thousand participants that were sent flying by him.
All of a sudden, a sharp cold light slashed from behind.
Without saying a word, Ning Fan moved sideways to avoid the cold light, turned around and blasted out a Black Flame Palm with boundless killing intent!
The person who attacked him with the cold light was Yao Li!
The current Yao Li was already at the middle stage of the Human Profound Realm. He sneered as he looked at the incoming Black Flame Palm. He changed his hand seals and the ground beneath his feet suddenly split open. Nine blood dragons broke out from the ground and soared into the sky!
"Immortal Art, Nine Dragons!"
The nine blood dragons fiercely collided with the Black Flame Palm. After the collision, they were evenly matched!
Black Flame Disperse, Blood Dragon Annihilate!
Ning Fan's eyes narrowed slightly. This Yao Li does have some tricks up his sleeves. His strength seems to be above Kun.
Yao Li, on the other hand, had an extremely ugly expression on his face. Initially, he thought that he could easily crush Ning Fan after breaking through to the Mid Human Profound Realm. However, he did not expect that after he displayed the Nine Dragons Technique, he was only evenly matched with Ning Fan's casual attack …
That Black Flame Palm was indeed a casual attack from Ning Fan. It was not an immortal art or ability!
"Oh? There's going to be a good show. Qingyun, why don't we make a bet? Between Ning Fan and Yao Li, who will die? "
The Nether Sea Immortal King chuckled. He did not bet on who would win but who would die. Because everyone knew that Ning Fan would not let Yao Li go and Yao Li would not let Ning Fan go.
"Alright! I will bet that Li Er will win and Ning Fan will die. How can Ning Fan win against Li Er?! " Yao Qingyun muttered the name 'Ning Fan'. His heart was filled with disgust for no reason. He wished he could rinse his mouth to wash it clean.
"Then I will bet that Yao Li will die. If I lose, I will give you that Innate Spiritual Herb to break through to the Intermediate Shedding Void Realm. If you lose … "
As soon as the Nether Sea Immortal King took out the Innate Spiritual Herb as a bet, countless old monsters' eyes lit up. Many elders of the Slaughter Palace looked at Yao Qingyun with envy.
As for Fei He, he stared at Yao Qingyun with hatred. He wished he could kill Yao Qingyun. How could he be happy to see her obtain the Innate Spiritual Herb from the Great Elder to break through to the next realm?
"I won't lose!" Yao Qingyun harrumphed.
"If you lose … You will be responsible for sending the new disciples to the blood pool for this year's competition. You will be responsible for helping him receive the baptism of the highest level of the blood pool! "
"Alright!" Yao Qingyun agreed without hesitation.
She had never thought that if Ning Fan was the one who obtained the first place and joined the Slaughter Palace, she would do her best to help him receive the baptism of the blood pool …
The baptism of the highest level of the blood pool was quite alluring …
The corner of the Nether Sea Immortal King's mouth curled into a smile. He thought to himself, 'Interesting. This is really interesting! After the competition, there will be a good show to watch. '
In the inner city, Yao Li's eyes flashed. He suppressed the negative emotions in his heart and calmed himself down.
All of a sudden, he changed his hand seal and tried to kill Ning Fan again.
"Immortal Technique, Eighteen Dragons!"
Amidst the loud rumbling sounds, eighteen blood dragons broke through the ground and soared into the sky. Blood mist filled the sky and they turned into a blood-red color that let out a shrill howl as they charged at Ning Fan!
The impact force of the eighteen blood dragons was enough to destroy a low-grade cultivation planet! Ning Fan's eyes remained unmoved from the beginning to the end.
Ning Fan's eyes remained unmoved from the beginning to the end. He stomped on the ground and eighteen dragons of black flames immediately rushed out from the ground!
When the fire dragons and blood dragons collided with each other, the blood dragons immediately let out a sizzling sound. The blood on their bodies was burned away by the black flames!
In an instant, all eighteen blood dragons were burned to ashes!
At the moment when the blood dragons were burned to ashes, Ning Fan made a grabbing motion with his large hand and the eighteen black fire dragons rushed towards Yao Li's head!
The fire power of the eighteen black fire dragons was enough to burn an entire low-grade cultivation planet into ashes!
Yao Li's expression changed greatly. He hurriedly retreated while taking out a small ice shield.
That small shield was a Mid-Grade Water Element Immortal Treasure. It was the best at suppressing flames. It would probably be able to withstand the destructive force of the black flames.
Yao Li changed his hand seal and raised the small shield in his hand into the sky. The small shield immediately turned into an indestructible ice barrier that blocked the black flames.
Just as he was about to let out a sigh of relief, an incomparably large black hole suddenly appeared beneath his feet!
The black hole gave off a boundless suction force. In just an instant, Yao Li who was caught off guard was sucked into the black hole!
"Not good!"
Yao Qingyun's face turned pale. She suddenly rose to her feet and stared at Ning Fan in disbelief. Her eyes met with Ning Fan's calm expression.
"Destroy!"
As soon as he uttered that word, Yao Li's miserable shriek immediately resounded from the black hole. At the next moment, he took out a storage pouch and a pool of blood from the black hole.
He did not leave Yao Li's primordial spirit behind. He was not even willing to leave his broken primordial spirit behind.
"You've lost, Elder Qing Yun." The Nether Sea Immortal King's aged laughter resounded in the inner city.
"Mid-Grade Immortal Technique!" Some of the participants looked at the black hole that was gradually disappearing with astonishment.
"Spatial Immortal Technique! This young man seems to be very proficient in spatial techniques. If that's the case, I can send him an invitation to the Godly Void Pavilion during the 'Sacrificial Bell' … "The Ninth Elder of the Godly Void Pavilion muttered to himself.
Ning Fan defeated Yu Kun who was an Early Mortal Profound Realm expert and killed Yao Li who was a Mid Mortal Profound Realm expert with a single move. The strength that he displayed made countless participants not dare to oppose him.
Yao Qingyun looked at the pool of blood that Yao Li had turned into and sighed. She sat back on her seat and closed her eyes. Her expression was full of sorrow.
The Yao Clan was finally annihilated …
She could not tell what kind of emotion she was feeling. At this moment, she thought that she would vent her anger on Ning Fan, but she did not.
Scenes of the past emerged in her mind. For a moment, all kinds of feelings welled up in her heart.
"Oh? She actually did not get angry? This Yao Qingyun has become smarter. It seems like even a stupid woman will learn from failure. She failed to scheme against me twice in a row. Next time, it might be very difficult to deal with her. "
Ning Fan's thoughts raced. After a moment, he put away all his thoughts and crazily bombarded the geniuses of the Eastern Heaven.
The time it takes for half an incense stick to burn was almost up. It was almost time for him to duel with Kuang San.
The number of geniuses of the Eastern Heaven who had been defeated by Ning Fan had already reached nearly twenty thousand.
The number of Slaughter Badges that he had obtained was already innumerable.
On the other side, Kuang San was fighting against Chi Zhen's group of four.
The Earth Elemental Force around Kuang San's body was moving unhindered. As he raised his palm, thick earth palm imprints were launched towards Chi Zhen and the others.
Qu Yan and the others were sent flying by Kuang San one after another. Eventually, Chi Zhen let out a bitter smile and was sent flying by Kuang San's palm!
The time it takes for half an incense stick to burn was up. The ground in the inner city was filled with people who were seriously injured and unconscious.
Those who were still conscious and still had the Slaughter Badges were only Ning Fan and Kuang San!
This scene was beyond the expectations of countless old monsters!
It was as if the geniuses in the city were only here to serve as a foil to Ning Fan and Kuang San!
In the first round of the competition, one thousand people must be selected to advance to the next round. But now, only two people were left with the badges!
Moreover, after the duel between Ning Fan and Kuang San, only one of them would win.
In other words, only one of them would advance to the second round in the first round of the competition?
"Great Elder, if only one of them advances to the second round, are we still going to compete in the next three rounds?" An elder of the Slaughter Palace asked with a bitter smile.
"Of course we have to compete. It would be a pity if there is only one round of such an interesting competition. After either Ning Fan or Kuang San wins, the others will draw lots to pick the other 999 people to advance to the second round. "The Nether Sea Immortal King said disapprovingly.
"What? Draw lots?! I-Isn't this a little too childish? "
"Childish? Drawing lots is a competition of their luck. If their strength is not good and they are knocked down to the ground by others, their luck is not good and they can't get the next round, who else can they blame for not being able to advance to the next level? "
The Nether Sea Immortal King frowned in displeasure. That elder of the Slaughter Palace immediately shut his mouth obediently and did not dare to say anything more.
Below them, Ning Fan and Kuang San were facing each other. Their auras were getting stronger and stronger.
The two of them casually flicked their sleeves and cleaned up the battlefield. They sent the heavily injured and unconscious participants flying one after another, clearing up an empty space of one hundred li * (500m per li).
Ning Fan stared at Kuang San and frowned when he saw the smile in Kuang San's eyes.
He still could not figure out why this woman wanted to find him.
That's right. This Kuang San was a woman in disguise!
She had some kind of emperor grade secret treasure that could conceal her qi, change her appearance and disguise her gender. Even the Nether Sea Immortal King could not see through Kuang San's disguise.
However, Ning Fan knew that Kuang San was a woman!
No woman could pretend to be a man in front of Ning Fan who had the Ancient Chaos Emperor Treasure!
"Who exactly are you?!" Ning Fan asked expressionlessly.
Kuang San's expression changed slightly. Then, he stared at Ning Fan deeply and sneered. "If you want to know, you will have to defeat me first!"
