There was only a trace of grey qi that invaded Ning Fan's sea of consciousness. Under the suppression of the jie blood, it was quickly wiped out.
The stiffness in his body gradually disappeared and the parts that were petrified gradually returned to normal. Seeing this, Ning Fan's expression softened and he quietly looked at the sea of clouds above his head.
Above the sea of clouds, the blood-red vortex was disappearing bit by bit. Ning Fan did not continue to use the Reverse Spirit Technique. Instead, he sensed the scenery on the other side of the vortex.
The ten drops of royal barbarian blood that the stone statue bestowed had already flown into Ning Fan's body and were devoured by the jie blood in a domineering manner.
After devouring the ten drops of royal barbarian blood, the level of Ning Fan's jie blood increased by a large margin. However, there was still a huge gap between him and the True Blood Realm.
Regarding the changes of the Jie Blood in his body, Ning Fan did not say anything about it.
His expression was still a little solemn. His mind was still recalling the scene that he saw when he used the Reverse Spirit Technique.
"Giant gate … Stone statue … Grey moon … What I saw using the Reverse Spirit Technique is probably the entrance of the Heavenly Desolate Ancient Realm that the human race and demon race have been plotting for many years."
"The entrance of the Heavenly Desolate Ancient Realm is at the highest point of the Heavenly Imperial Court. That place is filled with grey wind that contains the power of Samsara. It gives me an extremely dangerous feeling … This place doesn't seem to be a good place."
"Also, I don't know the identity of that old man with the stone statue. Why did he call me the 'orthodox barbarian' and why did he give me twenty drops of royal barbarian blood …"
"Moreover, although it was just a quick glance, I clearly sensed a trace of life force that was deeply hidden in the body of that old man … Was he also turned into a stone statue because of the grey qi? Is he not dead yet … He asked me to go to the highest point of the Heavenly Imperial Court to see him. Should I go … "
Ning Fan's thoughts raced. After a while, he shook his head.
He came to the Nine Heavenly Imperial Court to take back the souls of the one million barbarians from the hands of the Seventh Ancestor. He did not want to care about other things for the time being. He also did not want to see that old man who had turned into a stone statue.
The ancient green stone path under his feet lit up with circles of light of formations. In the next moment, Ning Fan's figure disappeared from the second level and entered the third level of the Heavenly Imperial Court.
At the entrance of the third level of the Heavenly Imperial Court, there were six demon cultivators sitting cross-legged. There were seven to eight corpses of human cultivators lying on the ground.
When Ning Fan's figure appeared at the entrance of the third floor, the six demon cultivators suddenly rose to their feet. All of them erupted with the aura force of the Peak Shedding Void Realm.
The six demon cultivators recognized Ning Fan's human qi. Their eyes flashed with ferocious light. However, there were also traces of doubt in their eyes.
"That's weird. This person didn't tear open the sky of the second level. How did he enter the third level of the Heaven Fault?"
"Forget it. No matter how this person entered the third level, I'll kill him first! Patriarch Poisonous Dragon ordered us to stay here and kill the Luo Clan that enters this place. This kid seems to be only at the middle stage of Void Shedding, so it won't be difficult to kill him! And this kid … had silver hair and a ghost face! He was the person that Patriarch Poisonous Dragon had placed a bounty on! Kill him and you can obtain an Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill from the clan! "
When they thought of the generous reward of the Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill, the hearts of the six demon cultivators raced. Their eyes were filled with killing intent as if they were looking at a fat sheep.
The six demon cultivators had stayed behind because they were under orders to kill the humans that had fallen from the sky.
Seeing that Ning Fan's cultivation base was not high, the six demon cultivators naturally had the intention to kill him. When they saw that Ning Fan was the person that Patriarch Poisonous Dragon had placed a bounty on, they naturally had to kill him.
Each of the six demon cultivators carried a demon sword case on their back. The sword qi inside the case was towering.
As soon as Ning Fan appeared, before he could see the scenery in front of him clearly, two demon cultivators, one tall and one skinny, had already taken a step forward. At the same time, they formed a hand seal and shouted.
"Ji Water Demon Sword, slash!"
"Han Valley Demon Sword, slash!"
Immediately, the sword cases on the backs of the two demons let out a sonorous and forceful sword cry. Then, two rays of sword light, one purple and one red, flew out of the sword cases with a 'chi' sound and slashed towards Ning Fan's left and right.
The other four demon cultivators moved and blocked Ning Fan's four sides. They did not attack Ning Fan but they blocked all of his escape routes.
They did not intend to give Ning Fan any chance to escape!
The six demons had a tacit understanding with each other. They had already joined hands to kill many Shedding Void Realm humans.
Any one of them was not a weakling among those at the Peak Shedding Void Realm. From their point of view, Ning Fan who was just at the Mid Shedding Void Realm could be killed with 90% certainty with two of them attacking him at the same time.
The bounty for the Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill was just within their reach!
Unfortunately, the six demons had underestimated Ning Fan's strength!
Ning Fan's eyes flashed with cold light. Along his journey, he had encountered many demon cultivators but he did not kill them. However, it did not mean that he was soft-hearted and would not kill them!
If people do not offend me, I will not offend them. Since these few demon cultivators had come to seek death, he naturally would not show them any mercy!
"Bang!"
Ning Fan's body suddenly erupted with red light that soared into the sky. That red light then turned into two scarlet giant hands that directly grabbed the two demon swords!
The grade of the two demon swords was not ordinary. They were Fifth Nirvana Nascent Heaven Flying Swords. In terms of grade, they were slightly higher than Ning Fan's Four Minute Swords.
However, under the grasp of the giant red hand, the two swords actually let out a loud bang and were forcefully shattered into powder by the force of that grasp.
One claw and the two swords were destroyed!
The two Peak Shedding Void Realm demon cultivators who cultivated with the two swords immediately coughed out blood and retreated. When they looked at Ning Fan again, their eyes were filled with astonishment.
Not only the two of them, the other four demons were also greatly astonished. Being able to destroy two Fifth Nirvana Nascent Heaven Demon Swords in a single strike was definitely not something that a Mid Shedding Void Realm cultivator could possess!
"What kind of ability is that red light?! It can actually destroy the Fifth Nirvana Nascent Heaven Demon Swords in a single strike! "
"This person is definitely not a Mid Shedding Void Realm cultivator! Even a Peak Shedding Void Realm cultivator would have a hard time withstanding our joint attack. However, this person managed to break it in a single strike … Even if he is not a Thought Fragmenting Old Monster, he must be a Peak Shedding Void Realm cultivator who has half a step into the Thought Fragmenting Realm! "
"Let's attack together and kill this young man. Don't hold back anymore!"
The six demons' expressions were solemn. As they moved, they changed their positions. From their positions, they seemed to be in line with the formation. They had vaguely surrounded Ning Fan at the center of the formation.
The cold light in Ning Fan's eyes intensified. He would certainly not give the six demons the chance to set up the formation!
The Grand Firmament Tribulation Spirit at the One-Star True Blood Realm was considered as having Minor Accomplishment in Tribulation Blood. With just the strength of his bloodline, he was already invincible in the Shedding Void Realm!
After devouring twenty drops of royal barbarian blood, even though Ning Fan's Tribulation Blood had yet to break through to the True Blood Realm, it was much stronger than before.
Currently, Ning Fan might not necessarily lose to a Late Shedding Void Realm cultivator just by relying on the might of his Tribulation Blood.
In the Desolate Land which was suppressed by the power of the Forbidden Immortal Realm, Ning Fan could even put up a fight against a Late Thought Fragmenting Void Realm cultivator. Why would he be afraid of a few Peak Shedding Void Realm cultivators?!
"Devour!"
A red light flashed in Ning Fan's eyes. At this moment, tribulation clouds covered heaven and earth densely. The red light fell like lightning. It was as if the end of the world was coming. Rumbling sounds echoed incessantly, causing the sea of clouds in the area to tumble.
He flicked his sleeves. The red light of the tribulation sense around him immediately swept out like a violent gust of wind. It turned into six rays of scarlet finger light and pointed at each of the six demons.
The speed of the finger light was too fast. It was so fast that the six demons did not have the time to defend themselves. The finger light had already reached their eyes. Their spiritual equipment and demon armors were crushed by the finger light and it penetrated their bodies!
As soon as the finger light penetrated their bodies, the six demons immediately coughed out blood and retreated. Their bodies even began to feel stiff.
Every time they took a step back, the stiffness would increase. When they took the seventh step back, they suddenly realized that they could no longer take another step back!
At this moment, all of them had lost control of their bodies. Due to the destruction of the red light of the tribulation sense in their bodies, they were unable to move at all!
It was as if their bodies no longer belonged to them. Even though their consciousness still existed, they could not move their fingers at all!
As soon as they looked inside their bodies, they immediately realized that their bodies had been controlled by the scarlet evil red light, depriving them of the right to control their bodies!
The red light was not only eroding their consciousness. As time passed, the six demons could no longer remain clear-headed. Their eyes became bloodthirsty and violent. Gradually, there was an urge and a thirst in their hearts. They wanted to kill each other, to disown their own kin, and to kill their own kind …
They had already gone mad!
"What … is … this … divine … ability …"
"But … I'm afraid …"
In the end, the consciousness of the six demon cultivators was completely eroded by the power of the tribulation sense. They had been affected by Ning Fan's Tribulation Sense Technique and turned into his loyal servants, pure killing machines.
Unfortunately, Ning Fan did not need such loyal servants. After the six of them had fallen into oblivion, Ning Fan glanced at them coldly. He raised his hand and took out the Memory Severing Dao Sword, piercing through their dantian and killing their demon souls.
After casually keeping the storage pouches and demon swords of the six demons, Ning Fan glanced at the ancient bluestone paths and chose one of them before stepping into it.
There were a total of thirty-six ancient bluestone paths on the third floor of the Heavenly Imperial Court. All of them led to the fourth floor. The path that Ning Fan took was the nineteenth one. No one had ever taken this path before.
He used a very short amount of time to kill the six demons. However, the disturbance he caused was huge. In the third floor, there were still thirteen Early Thought Fragmentation Realm old monsters who were trying to break through the palace. They more or less sensed the fluctuations caused by Ning Fan killing the six demons. However, because the clouds and mist were too thick and they were too far away, they could not find out what was happening at the entrance.
"Judging by the momentum of the battle, could it be that there are Thought Fragmentation Realm old monsters fighting here …?" Mo Yuanzi was sitting cross-legged on the ground outside the eighty-fourth palace on the seventh ancient path. He was trying his best to recover his magic power. He had quite a lot of injuries on his body.
Old Ancestor Jin Hua was sitting cross-legged on the ground outside the eighty-fourth palace on the ninth ancient path. He had quite a lot of injuries on his body and was recuperating. Old Ancestor Jin Hua was slightly shocked when he sensed the terrifying fluctuations coming from the entrance. However, he did not say anything.
The eleventh ancient path, the twelfth ancient path, the fourteenth ancient path … Each of the Thought Fragmentation Realm old monsters noticed the fluctuations caused by Ning Fan's divine ability. Their expressions changed.
Most of the Early Thought Fragmentation Realm old monsters stopped at the eighty-fourth palace. It was actually difficult for them to break through this palace with their cultivation base.
"Are the Six Demons of Si Shui all dead …? Humph! I wonder which human Thought Fragmentation Realm old monster couldn't bear to see the six demons killing the human race that had fallen from the sky. That's why he finally attacked them! " On the twenty-first ancient path, a snake-haired old man noticed that the six life tablets in his storage pouch had shattered. His expression darkened.
This snake-haired old man's face was covered with snake scales. His qi was extremely cold. He was born in the Heaven Devouring Python Clan, a great True Spirit Clan. He was extremely strong. Among those at the Early Thought Fragmentation Realm, he rarely met a worthy opponent.
"Among the six demons, one of them cultivated a cultivation method that was very useful to me. I originally planned to nurture this demon into a python cauldron. However, I didn't expect that this demon would be killed by a human old monster … Humph! That human old monster who killed the six demons has stepped onto the nineteenth ancient path? Consider himself lucky! If he steps onto this ancient path of mine, I will certainly teach him a painful lesson! "
The snake-haired old man let out a cold humph and entered the eighty-fourth palace in a flash.
A few breaths later, the snake-haired old man let out a muffled groan and flew out of the palace while spurting out blood. His expression was vaguely filled with unwillingness.
"Damn it. The aura force of the eighty-fourth palace is actually a few times stronger than the eighty-third palace. Without a Mid Thought Fragmentation Realm cultivation base, I really can't pass through it … I don't believe it!"
The snake-haired old man adjusted his breathing and entered the eighty-fourth palace again. A moment later, he spurted out blood and flew out of the palace again.
"I can't pass through it …" He sighed dejectedly. Suddenly, he noticed something and was slightly stunned.
"Hmm? That human old monster who killed the six demons has just reached the Third Palace and he can't go any further? "
The snake-haired old man's spirit sense vaguely locked onto the nineteenth ancient path and Ning Fan's direction.
He noticed that Ning Fan had already entered the Third Palace for more than ten breaths. However, the Third Palace had yet to emit the divine light of passing through.
"Why didn't he stop at the Fourth Palace …?" The snake-haired old man muttered to himself.
The third level of the Heavenly Fault was obviously different from the second level. This difference was specifically aimed at Ning Fan.
Ning Fan walked along the nineteenth ancient path and passed through the First Palace and the Second Palace. These two palaces were nothing special to him.
However, when he entered the Third Palace of the third level, he immediately noticed the changes of the Barbarian Marks in his body!
There were originally only 224 Barbarian Marks in his body. However, when he reached the Third Palace of the third level, his body vaguely formed the 225th Barbarian Mark!
"Passing through the palaces of the Nine Heavens Imperial Court can actually increase the number of Barbarian Marks!" Ning Fan's eyes flashed as if he was more certain of something.
When the number of Barbarian Marks reached 46, 96 and 156, a new Barbarian Blood would be born in Ning Fan's body.
In the Nine Heavens Imperial Court, the aura force of the palaces would increase when he reached the 46th and 96th palaces.
In the 45th palace of the second level, the aura force of the palace would also increase. If one were to calculate carefully, the 45th palace of the second level of the Heavenly Fault was exactly the 156th palace that Ning Fan had passed through.
The third palace of the third level was the 225th palace that Ning Fan had passed through.
There was no increase in the number of Barbarian Marks in the 224 palaces that Ning Fan had passed through. However, there was an increase in the number of Barbarian Marks here …
"Previously, I guessed that the Nine Heavens Imperial Court is related to the cultivation of the Barbarian Marks of the Barbarian Summoning Technique. Now, it seems like my guess is correct."
Ning Fan's eyes flashed and he walked out of the Third Palace. Immediately, the Third Palace emitted a towering divine light.
With a sway of his body, he entered the Fourth Palace. Just like the Fourth Palace, his eyes narrowed.
The aura force of the Fourth Palace was a few times stronger than that of the Third Palace! Without an Early Thought Fragmentation Realm cultivation base, one would definitely be sent out by the aura force of the palace!
"The Fourth Palace is the 226th palace that I have passed through. In this palace, the aura force of the palace has obviously increased …"
Ning Fan walked forward step by step while withstanding the pressure that was as heavy as a mountain. Along the way, he passed through the palaces with a relaxed expression. However, when he reached this place, he finally felt that every step was difficult.
In the Fourth Palace, Ning Fan spent nearly a hundred breaths to pass through the aura force.
The moment he passed through the Fourth Palace, the number of Barbarian Marks in his body had reached 226. Barbarian Blood was produced in his body once again!
"46, 96,156 … After that, it's 226 … I seem to have found a pattern. The next time I produce Barbarian Blood, will the number of Barbarian Marks be 306 …"
"306 should correspond to the 84th Palace of the Third Floor!"
The Barbarian Blood that was constantly being produced in his body was being devoured by the Jie Blood in a domineering manner. The level of the Jie Blood increased once again.
He was even closer to breaking through to the One-Star True Blood!
As the level of the Jie Blood increased slightly, the aura force of the palace seemed to have lessened. Ning Fan's footsteps became lighter.
The Fifth Palace, the Sixth Palace, the Seventh Palace … Ning Fan kept advancing. As the aura force of the palaces continued to increase, he could only pass through one palace every twenty breaths.
Each time he passed through a palace, the number of Barbarian Marks in his body would increase by one.
When he passed through the 78th Palace, the number of Barbarian Marks in his body had reached 300!
In the 78th Palace, Ning Fan welcomed the third tribulation of becoming the Young Barbarian Minister!
In the blink of an eye, his skin and flesh began to wither. The life force in his body was being devoured by the Barbarian Marks at a crazy rate.
This kind of devouring was different from the backlash of the Barbarian Marks. It was no longer up to the Barbarian Marks.
In order to pass the third tribulation, the amount of life force needed was much greater than the previous two. If Ning Fan couldn't pass the third tribulation, his life force would be exhausted and he would die.
However, if Ning Fan passes the third tribulation, he would have 300 Barbarian Marks and awaken the bloodline of the Barbarian Ancestor. Then, he would become the Young Barbarian Minister, a barbarian cultivator with ancestral bloodline!
The arrival of the tribulation was silent. The Thought Breaking Old Monsters on the Third Floor naturally did not notice the arrival of the tribulation.
However, someone sensed the Qi of this place!
The Fourth Ancestor's expression changed drastically in the 95th Palace of the Sixth Floor. He sensed the Qi of the tribulation coming from the Heavenly Imperial Court.
The 17th Palace of the Seventh Floor. The Second Ancestor was about to pass through this palace. Suddenly, he turned his head and looked down, as if he had discovered something extremely shocking.
The 49th Palace of the Seventh Floor. The First Ancestor protected himself with the bone sword and walked towards the other side of the palace while withstanding the heavy aura force.
At the moment when Ning Fan's tribulation descended, the First Ancestor took out a bronze mirror and saw Ning Fan's ghostly face and silver-haired appearance!
"Impossible! Even if he is the Great Firmament Tribulation Spirit, it's impossible for him to trigger the third tribulation! Other than the Barbarian Race, there shouldn't be any other foreign race that is qualified to trigger the third tribulation … "
"It's impossible for cultivators who aren't from the Barbarian Race to obtain the recognition of the 'Twelve Barbarian Gods'. It's also impossible for them to trigger the third tribulation! What kind of ability does this young man have to trigger the third tribulation?! Could it be that his true identity is a barbarian? He's not a human! "
None of the three Barbarian Ancestors expected Ning Fan to trigger the third tribulation.
Even the Fifth Ancestor who planted the Barbarian Summoning Technique on Ning Fan did not expect that he would trigger the third tribulation one day.
Only barbarians could use the Barbarian Summoning Technique to obtain the recognition of the Barbarian Gods and trigger the third tribulation. This rule was set by the twelve Barbarian Gods at the same time.
The Barbarian Gods were the gods that all barbarians including the First Ancestor worshipped! They were the real ancestors who imitated the Tribulation Blood and created the Barbarian Bloodline!
As a matter of fact, the Ancient Savage Region that was ruled by the Fan Family was just a branch of the Barbarian Race. Under the rule of the Great Firmament Tribulation Spirit, there were many barbarian tribes like the Fan Family … They were the descendants of the twelve Barbarian Gods!
"I didn't expect that the Barbarian Mark that the Fifth Ancestor planted in this young man's body would trigger the third tribulation and become his fortune … If this young man successfully passes the third tribulation, his body will produce a drop of Ancestor Realm Barbarian Blood … Can this young man pass the third tribulation?! If he does … "
The First Ancestor's expression of shock disappeared and the corner of his mouth curled into a cold smile.
"Forget it. It's good if this young man can break through the Ancestor Realm Barbarian Bloodline. At that time, he won't only be useful to us, the Barbarian Ancestors, to heal our wounds. He can be of greater use. For example, we can offer him to the lord who is sleeping on the highest floor of the Heaven Imperial Court …"
The 15th palace on the eighth floor of the Heaven Imperial Court.
The Seventh Ancestor, Fan Mokong, walked forward while withstanding the pressure.
Just like the other three Barbarian Ancestors, he also sensed the tribulation in Ning Fan's body. However, he was not as surprised as the other three and was too lazy to pay attention to Ning Fan.
His expression was still blank and numb, like a machine that only knew how to complete a task.
He had overcome all obstacles along the way just to ascend to the highest floor of the Heaven Imperial Court because his true self had given him a task there!
"My name is Fan Mokong. I am the Seventh Barbarian Ancestor … On the day of my death, I borrowed the power of the Karma Beast that I obtained from killing the Tribulation Venerables of the Upper World and sent my will into the Illusory World to form my true self. I tried to control the fate of the Arbiter of Fate …"
"My memories are very vague … I can't remember many things clearly. Most of my memories have been taken away by my true self …"
"I have a task that my true self has given me. I must ascend to the highest floor of the Heaven Imperial Court and plant this Gu in the body of the Ninth Barbarian God …"
"I want to turn the Ninth Barbarian God into my third clone …"
The Seventh Ancestor, Fan Mokong, moved forward with numb eyes. He carried a small bottle which contained a Gu. It was stolen by his true self from the Gu Tribe of the Southern Clan in the Eastern Heaven Immortal World.
He also had a banner with him. Inside the banner were the souls of the one million barbarians that Ning Fan had saved in the past. There were also countless barbarian souls with blank eyes. Most of them were barbarians who had died in the blood sacrifice …
These souls were collected by him using the Soul Summoning Technique. They were the catalyst to activate the mysterious Gu Poison!
Fan Mokong's eyes were blank. He did not expect that his action of collecting the barbarian souls would attract an ominous star that had already entered the Nine Heavens Imperial Court and was chasing after him!
His intelligence was very low. He only knew that his instinct was to complete the task given to him by his true self. He would not ask about things that were unrelated to the task.
...
On the third level of the Heaven Imperial Court, in the eighty-fourth palace on the twenty-first ancient path, the snake-haired old man failed again. He flew out of the palace while coughing out blood.
This was the fifteenth time that he had failed in the eighty-fourth palace.
"Can I really not pass it …? I'm already familiar with the distribution of the aura force in this palace. If I use some tricks, I might be able to …"
Just as the snake-haired old man was thinking about a plan to pass this palace, his expression suddenly changed.
Dark clouds suddenly appeared in the direction of the nineteenth ancient path. The dark clouds were completely different from the sea of clouds that was enshrouded in white mist. It gave the snake-haired old man an extremely uneasy feeling.
Within the dense dark clouds, a voice came from afar. It was cold and indifferent, sending chills down the spines of those who heard it!
"Sha Gu!"
The dark clouds were released by Ning Fan's divine ability!
The dark clouds were the phenomenon triggered by the Fu Li Clan's most powerful divine ability – the Returning Ruin Finger!
Ning Fan needed a large amount of life force to pass the third trial for his barbarian mark to devour. His own life force was not enough for the barbarian mark to devour. Thus, he could only obtain it from the outside world!
The cultivator who was closest to him was the snake-haired old man who was on the twenty-first ancient path.
This person had been locking Ning Fan's spirit sense with hidden hostility.
This hostility did not escape Ning Fan's eyes. Thus, when Ning Fan needed life force the most, he directly chose to seize it from this person!
Dark clouds covered the entire sky from the direction of the nineteenth ancient path. Suddenly, a gigantic vortex appeared in the center of the dark clouds. Inside the vortex, the shadow of a black-robed Ning Fan appeared. He suddenly descended in the direction of the snake-haired old man and said coldly.
"Give me the life force in your body! This is your punishment for showing hostility to me! "
