Ning Fan had been cultivating the Dao for many years. He was no longer the weak cultivator he was in the past. Thus, he had naturally heard quite a lot about the Three Qi of Beginning, Nirvana and Desolate.
The so-called Primordial, Nirvana, and Desolate Qi were the three types of Qi of Origin in the world. They could be swallowed and refined to increase one's cultivation base. They could also be used to cast Divine Abilities and increase the power of Divine Abilities to a terrifying level. Among them, the Origin Qi was of the lowest quality and the Desolate Qi was of the highest quality.
However, even the lowest-quality Genesis Qi was scarce in the world. Occasionally, an ancient ruin would unearth a strand of Genesis Qi, and it would definitely cause Immortal Emperor level old monsters to fight for it.
"I didn't expect an Immortal Emperor to use his origin energy against me. Judging from the aura of this divine ability, the Immortal Emperor who summoned this giant ghost should belong to the demon race. "
Ning Fan's expression became extremely solemn. He already knew that the giant ghost was transformed from Shi Qi. Hence, he did not think that he had the strength to face it head-on.
According to Ning Fan's personality, once he knew that he wasn't a match for the giant ghost, he would immediately use his divine ability to escape. However, who would have thought that the Candle Bow's spirit that was sealed by Ning Fan would betray him at this moment?
As soon as the spirit of the Candle Bow flew out of Ning Fan's palm, it immediately turned into a seven-colored rainbow and rushed towards the sound waves released by the gigantic ghost without caring about anything else. It was extremely excited. That sound was as black as ink and as vast as the sea. It was the roar of the giant ghost, relying on the power of the Primordial Qi.
Although this giant ghost was only at the Sky-Rending Realm, its roar was so terrifying that even an Immortal Emperor would have to temporarily avoid it.
However, the Candle Bow's bow spirit did not seem to be afraid of this sound wave at all. When it flew in front of the sound wave, it suddenly shook its body and transformed into the wretched appearance of a hunchbacked old man. It laughed out loud and raised its hand towards the vast sound wave!
At the center of the sound wave, tens of thousands of rays of golden light suddenly appeared. The golden light turned into hundreds of millions of ancient demonic characters that suddenly condensed to form an extremely ancient golden mark. The mark was in the shape of a dragon, and Demonic Qi shot up into the sky. As soon as the mark appeared, the sea of sound dissipated with a bang!
Even Immortal Emperors didn't dare to face this primordial energy sacred art head-on, but it was actually broken by Candle Bow's palm!
"Hehe, this old man's previous master was Ancestor Dragon Zhu Li. On account that this old man had followed him in battle for many years, he gave this old man three strands of Genesis Energy. These three strands of Genesis Qi had been refined by the previous master for ten thousand years and he had secretly planted countless marks on them. As long as the imprint is not erased, this origin energy cannot harm this old man! When Lil Fan saw this sound wave, he was so scared that he turned around and ran. What a coward, I am not afraid at all. "The candle bow proudly licked its lips, chuckled and flew towards the giant ghost.
The giant ghost was formed from primordial energy, and its movements were emotionless. When it saw the candle bow flying towards it, it immediately opened its huge mouth and swallowed the candle bow. This devouring force directly caused cracks to appear in the Dao Laws within a radius of 5,000 kilometers.
"A mere brat dares to use this old man's origin energy? You're courting death!"
Seeing that the giant ghost wanted to swallow him, Candle Bow's eyes were filled with disdain. His hands continuously moved, instantly forming countless demonic hand seals. Immediately, a scarlet-gold dragon-shaped mark appeared on the giant ghost's body. The number of those marks increased and covered the entire body of the giant ghost.
As the marks appeared one after another, Candle Bow let out a cold cry and changed his hand seals. Instantly, the giant ghost which was incomparably arrogant immediately let out a miserable shriek and its body directly exploded, dispersing into countless strands of mist.
Candle Bow then raised his hand and grabbed at the strands of mist. The mist immediately merged with each other and turned into a cloud of mist that was almost transparent. Then, it slowly floated into Candle Bow's hand.
"Haha. Lil Fan, do you see this? This is one of the three strands of Genesis Qi that the previous master had given me! As long as I devour this strand of Genesis Qi … "
Candle Bow was extremely pleased. He raised his hand and was about to devour this strand of Genesis Qi.
His heart was filled with joy. As long as he successfully devours this strand of Genesis Qi, his strength would certainly increase tremendously by borrowing its power. By then, the seal that Ning Fan planted in his body would not be a problem at all. He could break it by just raising his hand.
However, would Ning Fan give Candle Bow the chance to devour this strand of Genesis Qi …
"Freeze!"
Ning Fan gently raised his hand and pointed at Candle Bow with a finger. Immediately, Candle Bow's entire body became immobilized. He still maintained his posture of devouring the Genesis Qi with a wretched smile on his face. However, the strand of Genesis Qi could no longer enter his mouth.
In the past, Ning Fan could only use this technique to freeze Candle Bow by burning his ancestral blood. Today, however, Candle Bow's body had been sealed by Ning Fan's seal. Thus, he was easily frozen by Ning Fan.
"Heaven Freezing Technique! Why is he using this technique again?! This is bad. This malefic star has actually frozen me! He wants to seize my Genesis Qi! "
Candle Bow's heart screamed in alarm. At this moment, Ning Fan appeared in front of him like a ghost and took away the Genesis Qi from his hand.
Candle Bow's escape plan had ended before it could even begin …
"This strand of Genesis Qi belongs to me now." Ning Fan glanced at Candle Bow who could not move at all and said indifferently.
Originally, he was unable to defeat the giant ghost. However, he did not expect that Candle Bow actually had a way to restrain the giant ghost and seize the Genesis Qi that formed its body.
Looking at the illusory Genesis Qi in his hand, Ning Fan smiled faintly. It seemed like he had picked up a bargain for nothing. This small lump of Genesis Qi was a treasure that could make immortal emperors envious!
On the other side, Candle Bow immediately began to curse loudly when he saw Ning Fan snatching his Genesis Qi.
"Little Fan, how dare you plot against me? You are really too shameless! If you have the guts, remove the Heaven Freezing Technique and have a fair one-on-one duel with me! As long as you return the Genesis Qi to me, I will only need three moves to beat you up like a dog! "
"Little Fan, I'm warning you! Remove the Heaven Freezing Technique now and return the Genesis Qi to me. Then, I can still let bygones be bygones! Otherwise, I'm going to get angry! "
"Master! I'll still call you master, alright? Master, please have some pity on me. This Genesis Qi was given to me by my previous master. It belongs to me! You are a respectable person with a high status. You can't steal something from a servant like me. How bad would it sound if word gets out? Just return it to me … "
"Master, you're my biological father, alright?! As long as you return the Genesis Qi to me … "
Ning Fan's eyes darkened. He did not want to talk nonsense with Candle Bow anymore. Of course, he would not return the Genesis Qi to Candle Bow. He raised his hand and pointed at Candle Bow, activating the seal in his body. Candle Bow immediately wailed like a pig being slaughtered.
"Just now, you seemed to be trying to escape …" Ning Fan's eyes flashed with killing intent when he looked at Candle Bow. Candle Bow was still wailing. When he suddenly saw the killing intent in Ning Fan's eyes, his heart instantly turned cold.
"Not good! This malefic star wants to kill me! "
At this moment, Candle Bow no longer cared about the ownership of the Genesis Qi. He understood that his betrayal this time had angered Ning Fan.
If Candle Bow successfully swallowed the Genesis Qi and escaped, he naturally would not need to be afraid of Ning Fan. However, the problem was that his betrayal seemed to have failed. His life was in Ning Fan's hands …
"In the past, I captured you. The reason why I didn't kill you and destroy you was because you are still useful. Your existence is closely related to the key in the hands of the True Dragon Clan. Therefore, I spared your life. But now, I don't plan to keep you alive! "
The killing intent in Ning Fan's eyes suddenly skyrocketed, as if he had really decided to kill Candle Bow at this moment.
Candle Bow's body immediately trembled. If it wasn't because his body was still restrained by the Heaven Sealing Technique, he really wanted to kowtow to Ning Fan and beg for mercy. "Mas … Master! You can't kill me! I'm your Little Bow. I'm your loyal servant! I … I really didn't want to escape just now. When I saw that giant ghost bullying and humiliating Master, I couldn't take it anymore and wanted to help Master subdue the giant ghost! Yes, that's it! "
"Master, that giant ghost's body is made of Genesis Qi. That's a good thing! That trace of Genesis Qi was originally given to me by my previous master. However, I feel that only an outstanding talent like Master is worthy to possess that trace of Genesis Qi! Master, I'll give that trace of Genesis Qi to you. I don't want it anymore! Please do me a favor and spare me this time! "
Ning Fan remained silent. He stared at Candle Bow coldly. The killing intent in his eyes did not diminish at all. In fact, he just wanted to scare Candle Bow. He did not really intend to kill him. If Candle Bow dies, he would not be able to use those six and seven-colored incense arrows anymore. These incense arrows were Ning Fan's greatest reliance in the battle against the Seventh Era Barbaric Ancestor. Naturally, he would not kill Candle Bow at this moment.
However, Candle Bow had betrayed him after all. It would not do if he did not teach him a lesson. That was why Ning Fan purposely released his killing intent as if he wanted to kill Candle Bow. In the end, it was just to scare Candle Bow and teach him a lesson.
"I'm finished! This fiend is so stubborn. He really wants to kill me! Previously, he wanted to kill me after he obtained that Inferior Innate Realm Bow Spirit. If it wasn't for my quick-wittedness, I would have died. This time, I'm afraid I really can't escape from this calamity … "
The great joys and sorrows of life came too quickly. Candle Bow was filled with regret now. How could he be so foolish to think that he could escape from Ning Fan's hands with just a trace of Genesis Qi? Ning Fan had so many tricks up his sleeves. It wasn't like he had never seen them before. In the past, he did not have the ability to seal it but he was still subdued by Ning Fan by burning his ancestral blood …
"That's right. Ancestral blood! There seems to be a few drops of ancestral blood in this fiend's body. Even if I really devour this trace of Genesis Qi and break the seal, I won't be able to completely refine it within a short period of time. If he goes crazy and burns his ancestral blood, I will still be captured by him again … "
"I can't escape. It turns out that I couldn't escape from this fiend's clutches from the beginning …"
"This fiend is a monster who can build a bridge in the True Illusion River. He is the first person to do so since ancient times. Who can be compared to him? If he wants to imprison me, I'm afraid I won't be able to escape even if I run for another billion years … "
"If I don't run, I won't be killed. If I don't get killed, I will have to follow this fiend for the rest of my life. However, what's wrong with following this fiend? With this fiend's potential, his achievements in the future will certainly not be lower than Ancestral Dragon Zhu Li. If I follow him, I will definitely benefit greatly in the future. Sigh … It's too late to regret now. This fiend really wants to kill me … "
The more Candle Bow thought about it, the more regretful he felt. The more he thought about it, the more disheartened he became. If the heavens gave him a chance to start over, he would never choose to betray and run away.
Looking at Zhu Gong's despairing and regretful expression, Ning Fan's killing intent decreased slightly and he nodded with satisfaction. He had never thought of completely subduing this bow spirit. This bow spirit had a rebellious bone at the back of its head which made it difficult to subdue. Ning Fan had already seen this point clearly since a long time ago. If it wasn't because Zhu Gong still had a great use for him, Ning Fan would definitely not keep such a bow spirit by his side. He would also not tolerate Zhu Gong's betrayal.
"I originally wouldn't spare you for your betrayal this time. However, you have contributed greatly by helping me kill the barbaric ancestor previously. Now that your contribution has offset your mistake, I will spare your life this time. However, there won't be a next time! "Ning Fan said in a deep voice.
As soon as Zhu Gong heard that he would not have to die, he was naturally overjoyed. "Thank you for sparing my life, Master! I promise that I will never run away again in the future. I will modify it seriously and make a new bow. Don't worry, Master! From today onwards, Master's enemy will be Zhu Gong's enemy. Where Master's sword points at, Zhu Gong will be the person that Zhu Gong will kill. Master's fart will be the air that Zhu Gong breathes. Master's saliva will be … "
"Enough! I don't like people who talk too much! "Ning Fan said with a frown.
"Yes! Zhu Gong, shut up now! " Zhu Gong's heart shuddered. He no longer dared to flatter Ning Fan. He thought to himself that his flattery skills were indeed not good enough. He still had to practice more. This current master was indeed harder to serve than his former master.
Seeing that Zhu Gong was obedient, Ning Fan lifted the Heaven Sealing Technique on it with a point of his finger. Immediately, the bow turned back into the form of a dragon horn longbow and flew back to Ning Fan's hand.
"Congratulations, Master, for obtaining a trace of Origin Qi. By the way, Master might not know that this trace of Origin Qi contains the imprints that Little Bow's former master left behind. There are thirty million of them in total. If you don't refine all of them … "Zhu Gong said with a smile, trying to curry favor with Ning Fan.
"I know. Let's talk about the Origin Qi later. With my current cultivation level, if I don't refine all of the imprints, I won't be able to use this Origin Qi for a while."
Ning Fan waved his hand and kept the Origin Qi into the Profound Yin World, keeping it in his immortal cave. Being in such close contact with it, he could feel the violent energy within this mass of Origin Qi. It was not something that he could control at all with his current strength.
As soon as the giant ghost died, the second immortal emperor's investigation naturally failed. The sea of clouds in the surroundings also gradually returned to normal. Ning Fan did not continue to stay in this place. He walked along the ancient bluestone path and headed towards the next palace.
In front of him was the 21st palace on the fifth floor. With Ning Fan's current strength, it should have been difficult for him to move an inch after entering this palace. However, now that he had summoned so many Joss Flame Arrows, almost ninety percent of the aura force of the 21st palace was neutralized by them. The remaining ten percent of aura force could no longer hinder Ning Fan's footsteps. In less than half a breath's time, Ning Fan had already rushed out of the 21st palace and was heading upwards at full speed.
At the same time, outside the Ancient Wild Region, the clan leader of the True Dragon Clan, Ao Qiangu, was glaring angrily at Yao Meng who had failed to cast her technique.
Yao Meng lowered her head, feeling extremely nervous. She did not dare to look at the furious clan leader of the True Dragon Clan at all. She was groaning inwardly. Not only did she fail to project Ning Fan's true appearance after using her full strength, she even lost the trace of Origin Qi that the clan leader of the True Dragon Clan had given to her. How am I going to deal with this …?
All the great emperors of the demon races at the scene were looking at Yao Meng. Some of them were shocked, some of them were surprised, some of them were gloating while some of them were deep in thought. However, none of them had expected that the Origin Qi would be snatched away.
From their point of view, the mysterious person who was being investigated was at most an Immortal Venerable Immortal. Logically speaking, a mere Immortal Venerable Immortal would not have the ability to snatch a treasure from an immortal emperor. Moreover, the treasure was the Origin Qi. Logically speaking, a Immortal Venerable Immortal would not be able to control the Origin Qi at all, let alone snatch it …
How did that mysterious person snatch the Origin Qi …
Who is this person? Could it be that his cultivation base is not at the Immortal Venerable Immortal Realm but higher? Otherwise, why would the Origin Qi be snatched away?
Even the clan leader of the True Dragon Clan could not understand why the Origin Qi would be snatched away. He had extracted the Origin Qi from the Candle Bow's body. However, he had kept it and never used it. Therefore, he did not know that the Origin Qi contained the mark of the Ancestral Dragon Zhu Li which could be easily taken away by the Candle Bow.
"Yao Meng, continue to use your divine ability and project the Nine Heavens Imperial Court. As for that mysterious person, you don't have to investigate him! Leave him to Ao Xuan and Du Longzi! "
The clan leader's expression darkened. He took out a golden jade slip and crushed it.
At the same time, in the Nine Heavens Imperial Court, Ao Xuan and Du Longzi suddenly felt something and were stunned.
At this moment, they received an order from the clan leader of the True Dragon Clan. One of them must go to the lower heavens to investigate everything. If possible, take back the Origin Qi …
The Origin Qi was the key for Immortal Emperors to step into the Third Step. If possible, the clan leader did not want to lose this Origin Qi!
"Let me go." Old Ancestor Du Longzi's eyes darkened. He did not continue to move forward. Instead, he suddenly turned around and returned to the lower level.
His current position was not as advanced as Ao Xuan. The two of them worked together. Ao Xuan would continue to advance to the top level while he would complete the clan leader's task and head to the lower level. (To be continued.)
