The power of the fifth damage tribulation far surpassed that of the fourth. There were many barbarians in the Ancient Barbarian World. The Young Priests of each tribe were elites selected from billions of people. However, even these elites of the Berserkers had to give it their all when they went through the fifth stage of the trial. Only then would they have a small chance of getting through it.
Out of a hundred Young Priest barbarians, it would be good if twenty of them could survive the fifth trial.
The sky above the valley was filled with red clouds. The pressure coming from the red clouds was getting stronger and stronger, and there were even sounds of ancient barbarians chanting scriptures coming from the red clouds.
"In the past, the God of Berserkers cultivated during the endless tribulations. The gods came out to offer sacrifices to him, thus he obtained great merit …"
The chanting gradually gathered together, and an invisible pressure enveloped the entire valley.
Ning Fan sat cross-legged at the bottom of the lake. At the moment when the Fifth Trial descended, his physical body immediately shriveled at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Ning Fan's expression turned grim as the life force in his body was draining away at a crazy rate. The speed at which his life force was draining away was more than twice as fast as when he was in the Fourth Trial.
In the midst of his seriousness, there was also some anticipation. If he could get through the fifth trial and cultivate another drop of Barbarian Tribe Ancestral Blood, he wondered if his Jie Blood would be able to break through the realm of Two Stars True Blood …
There was still more than half of the remaining life force in the purple python bone. Ning Fan crazily absorbed it and refined it into his body, gradually restoring his shriveled body to its original state.
However, this recovery was only temporary. The amount of life force required by the Fifth Sundering Realm was simply too vast. As time passed, the life force within the python bone began to dwindle.
An hour later, the python bone's vitality was exhausted, and with a crack, it broke into two.
Ning Fan's eyes immediately turned cold. At this moment, he had only gone through less than half of the fifth stage. However, the life force within the python's bones had already been used up.
The amount of life force required for the fifth stage was simply too great. Just a python bone that had been used many times was not enough to get through the fifth stage.
Without the python bone to replenish his life force, his physical body withered and aged again. In just ten breaths of time, his skin was so dry and wrinkled that he looked like an old man with one foot in the grave.
Regret gradually appeared in his eyes. Regret that he didn't have enough life force to pass the fifth test.
If he was able to pass the fifth stage and cultivate another drop of ancestral blood, the benefits would be obvious.
Unfortunately, the life force of the purple python bone was limited. It was not enough to support Ning Fan to get through the fifth stage.
He had comprehended the ultimate divine art of the Fu Li Race, the Finger of Returning Ruin, which allowed him to devour the life force of others.
This place was the space of the tower. There were no animals or animals. Naturally, there were no humans or cultivators.
Other than Ning Fan, there was only the eyeball Monster and Miao Miao Immortal.
If he used the Ultimate Void Finger to seize the vitality of some eyeballs and Wise Words Immortal Venerable, would he be able to pass the fifth form?
In the Profound Yin World, there were tens of thousands of women. If he could open the Profound Yin World, would he be able to take away the vitality of these women?
Ning Fan of of Sthese Swords. Of Fan of Kings of!
He wasn't a good person. For the sake of transcending the tribulation, he would do things that would rob others of their life force. However, he wasn't willing to attack the eyeball monster and Miao Yan, and it was even more impossible for him to attack those human cauldrons.
The Fifth Strain required an enormous amount of life force. To a Cultivator, losing a small amount of life force wouldn't cause them any harm. But if they lost too much life force, their Cultivation base would be damaged, and their life would be in danger.
The eyeball monster had the cultivation of an Immortal Emperor, so the life force in his body was naturally boundless. As an ancient Immortal Venerable, the life force in his body was naturally not small.
However, even if the life force of the two of them were added together, it might not necessarily be more than the life force of the python bone …
In order to overcome the Fifth Suffering, he would need to seize at least half of the life force in their bodies. Not to mention whether he could do it with his current strength. Even if he could, he was unwilling to do so.
The cultivation level of the ten thousand human cauldrons was not high. The life force in their bodies was even lesser. Perhaps it would not be enough for Ning Fan to get through the fifth stage even if he sucked everyone's life force dry.
Sucking their life force dry would mean death … He would never kill his own cauldrons. This was the principle he had set since the beginning of his cultivation!
In the past, when he was killed by Old Ancestor Poisonous Dragon with seven arrows, only Miao Yan helped him. Even though he did not help her a lot, he still remembered Miao Yan's kindness. That was why he helped Miao Yan time and time again during the great calamity of the Savage Wilderness. He would not attack his friends.
The origin of the eyeball was unknown and its motive for getting close to Ning Fan was not pure. It was either using him or scheming against him. However, no matter what, Ning Fan managed to break the blessing technique with the help of the eyeball. Thus, he owed it a favor. Before the eyeball attacks him, Ning Fan would not take the initiative to harm it.
This was also his principle!
"So, I have no choice but to give up on the fifth stage …?" Ning Fan sighed softly.
The fifth stage of the tribulation was dangerous. It was a gamble of life and death. If he could get through it, the benefits would be great. If he could not get through it, his life force would be exhausted and he would die in the tribulation. Seeing that he could not get through the fifth stage of the tribulation, Ning Fan felt regretful. However, he did not panic. Instead, he remained calm.
He had been cultivating the Dao for many years. Naturally, his mind was not weak. That eyeball monster still needed his power to plot against Yinmo. It would certainly not watch him die in the tribulation.
The eyeball monster looked very calm. It must have a way to help him get through the fifth stage of the tribulation and save his life.
However, there must be a reason why the eyeball monster did not attack him immediately.
The reason why it did not attack him might be due to some kind of kindness or some other scheme …
Ning Fan frowned. He did not like the feeling of being dependent on others.
He could face death at any time during the tribulation. Why should he rely on others to save him?
However, without the replenishment of life force, it would be difficult for him to protect himself in the tribulation with his own strength …
Is there any way for me to protect myself …?
Ning Fan pondered in silence. Suddenly, his eyes flickered. He felt a slight tremble coming from his primordial spirit in his dantian.
Ning Fan's primordial spirit was wearing a jade locket on its neck. It was the Yin Yang Locket.
A ray of sword light was coiling around his body. It was the Memory Severing Dao Sword.
He was holding a walnut-sized fruit in his arms, slowly absorbing the vast power of the fruit. It was the Dark Time Fruit that he had forcefully obtained from the Dark Race.
The tiny body of his primordial spirit contained an illusionary pill that was as ethereal as a dream.
It was the Life Illusion Pill!
During the Sen Luo War against Eastern Heaven, Ning Fan killed Great Emperor Mo Luo's crystal slave, the Thousand Leaves Devil Luo, by chance and obtained a grain of Illusion Devil Dust. He then used it to concoct an Life Illusion Pill and kept it in his body without using it.
The grade of the Life Illusion Pill was not high. It was just a Fourth Revolution Pill. However, it had a heaven-defying medicinal effect.
Once this pill is activated, the dantian of the person who consumes the pill will produce three traces of illusory flames. After that, every time the person who consumes the pill dies, one of the illusory flames will be extinguished, allowing the cultivator to be reborn from the ashes. If the illusory flames are not used up, the person who consumes the pill will not die!
If the illusory flames are exhausted, the person who consumes the pill will not be able to be reborn from the ashes after his death.
This pill had a strong illusory power. The person who consumes the pill can be reborn with the power of the illusory flames after his death. However, outsiders would not be able to tell that the person who consumes the pill is not dead yet. Even the Heavenly Dao would be deceived by this pill …
In short, this was a miraculous pill that could bring one back to life after death.
Ning Fan's eyes flashed. Ever since he concocted the Life Illusion Pill in the past, he had always kept it as a life-saving pill. He had never used it before. Today, however, he could use it.
He did not know if this pill was as heaven-defying as the rumors said.
Perhaps, it could save his life from the tribulation. Perhaps, it could not … If there is no other way to resist the tribulation, I can give it a try.
As his life force flowed away rapidly, Ning Fan's appearance became older and older.
He secretly activated the medicinal power of the Life Illusion Pill. Just as he was about to transcend the tribulation with the help of this pill, he suddenly heard the gloating voice of the strange eyeball.
"Hehe. I thought you would be able to get through the fifth trial. However, it seems like you won't be able to. The descendant of the Lie Origin Sect can't possibly only have this little ability, right? "
The Lie Origin Sect was the sect of the Ancient Chaos Immortal Emperor. Ning Fan was the disciple of the Ancient Chaos Immortal Emperor. Thus, he was naturally considered as the descendant of the Lie Origin Sect.
Ning Fan's brows slightly furrowed after hearing what the eyeball said. He did not like the fact that the strange eyeball looked down on the Lie Origin Sect and the Ancient Chaos Immortal Emperor.
However, the truth was that he really could not get through the fifth trial. He seemed to have embarrassed the Ancient Chaos Immortal Emperor …
"Brat, are you a pig? You are already the Young Minister of Barbarian Realm. If your life force is not enough, why don't you use the [Mountain and Sea Curse]? Even though the first five trials require a large amount of life force, as a barbarian cultivator, as long as you comprehend the [Mountain and Sea Curse] to a certain degree, you will still be able to get through the fifth trial. It's not the sixth trial … Erm … Could it be that this brat doesn't know the [Mountain and Sea Curse] …? "
The strange eyeball suddenly realized something. After a moment of silence, it asked with a strange look.
"Brat, could it be that … you don't know the [Mountain and Sea Curse]?"
"What is the [Mountain and Sea Curse]?" Ning Fan was slightly puzzled.
"You don't even know the [Mountain and Sea Curse]? The barbarian cultivator who helped you to summon the barbarian didn't teach you this technique? "The strange eyeball was surprised.
"No."
"That barbarian cultivator is really irresponsible! Since he helped you to summon the barbarian, he is your master. He has the responsibility to teach you the [Mountain and Sea Curse]. Without this technique, you will be courting death when you pass the third trial of the Young Minister of Barbarian Realm! Does he want to kill you?! "The strange eyeball said with dissatisfaction.
"He really wants to kill me." Ning Fan shook his head indifferently.
His barbarian summoning technique was planted by the Fifth Ancestor. At that time, the Fifth Ancestor was forced into a corner by Ning Fan. Wasn't it because he wanted to plant a barbarian summoning technique on Ning Fan to kill him?
Unfortunately, the Fifth Ancestor did not expect that Ning Fan would use the barbarian summoning technique to become the eighth generation Young Minister of the Fan Clan. It was a great opportunity for him.
As for the [Mountain and Sea Curse], the Fifth Ancestor really did not teach it to Ning Fan.
"What is the [Mountain and Sea Curse]? Is it very helpful for me to pass the third trial? "Ning Fan asked.
"It's more than helpful. This is the basic ability of the Young Minister of Barbarian Realm! I really want to know how you became the Young Minister of Barbarian Realm. You don't even know the [Mountain and Sea Curse]. Forget it. I will teach you the mnemonic chant of the [Mountain and Sea Curse] now. You just need to pass the fifth trial. As for the sixth trial, you definitely won't be able to pass it. Later, I will help you lay down a Heaven Deceiving Formation and help you pass the sixth trial … However, if I take action, you won't be able to cultivate the ancestral blood even if you pass the third trial … "
It turned out that once the strange eyeball takes action, he would not be able to obtain any benefits from the third trial. This was the reason why the strange eyeball did not take action until now. Ning Fan was enlightened.
While the strange eyeball was muttering to itself, it shot out a ray of grey light that went straight to the bottom of the lake.
That ray of grey light went into Ning Fan's head. All of a sudden, lines of ancient barbarian mantras appeared in his mind.
"The Barbarians are the ancestors of nature, the sects of all realms. The barbarian is born in the mountains and seas, attaining the Dao in nature, returning to the mountains and seas after death. The nine mountains and eight seas are one world, the reincarnation of heaven and earth is opened in the palm … '
The Barbarian Incantation was somewhat similar to the Ancient Savage Wilderness Region's Barbarian Ancestral Sutra. However, that was only the first sentence.
The content after that was completely different.
The eyeball did not know that Ning Fan had the Illusion Pill to protect himself. After he taught Ning Fan the Mountain and Sea Incantation, he immediately began to set up a Heaven Deceiving Formation at the shore of the lake.
Once Ning Fan's Damage Tribulation fails, he would activate the formation to protect him.
Ning Fan silently recited the mnemonic chant of the Mountain and Sea Incantation. Gradually, his body formed a close connection with heaven and earth.
His heart became calmer and calmer, and he seemed to hear the sound of the lake.
It was not the sound of flowing water, but the sound of a heartbeat, like a human heartbeat.
Dong dong, dong dong, dong dong!
The lake had life, and only Berserkers could sense its life!
Because the Barbarian Cultivators were the ancestors of nature, and they cultivated the Dao of nature!
Dong dong, dong dong, dong dong!
Ning Fan could hear the heartbeat in the valley. This mountain also had life, and its form of life was something that the cultivators of other races could not understand. Only the barbarians could understand it.
You might think that humans are alive while the mountains and rivers are dead, but in the eyes of the barbarians, the mountains and rivers are the same as humans.
Dong dong, dong dong, dong dong!
More heartbeats entered Ning Fan's ears. They were the heartbeats of countless barbarians under the silent ground.
After the barbarians died, they would not enter the cycle of reincarnation. Their cycle of reincarnation was different from Zi Dou Immortal Region.
After they died, their souls would disperse into the mountains and seas, blending into the grass, trees, and rocks.
They did not reincarnate, but their souls were attached to the mountains and seas, watching over their descendants forever.
The piece of land that was refined into the space of the copper pagoda was a piece of land from the Ancient Barbarian World. It was obtained by the Dao Wang Great Emperor and refined into the pagoda!
This piece of land used to give birth to countless barbarians. The heroic spirits of those dead barbarians still resided here.
That kind of existence was not something that Ning Fan could understand. However, he did hear the heartbeats of those ancient barbarians, and they would forever remain in this piece of land.
At this moment, Ning Fan could even see an inexhaustible amount of life force in the mountains, rivers, heaven and earth!
Humans had life force, so they were alive.
However, the mountains, rivers, lakes, and seas did not necessarily have no life force. If there is no life force, it would be a barren mountain or a dead sea.
The Dao that Ning Fan cultivated in the past allowed him to see the life force of humans, beasts and plants. However, he could not see the life force of the mountains, rivers, lakes, and seas.
Ning Fan felt like he was getting to know this world again. It turned out that different Daos led to different views of the world.
The life force of the mountains, rivers, lakes, and seas was naturally much greater than that of humans. In the past, Ning Fan could not see this. Now that he could see it, he naturally understood the reason why the eyeball monster gave him the Mountain and Sea Incantation.
Being able to see the life force of the mountains, rivers, lakes, and seas meant that he could plunder and devour it for his own use!
Compared to the life force of the mountains and seas here, the life force contained in the purple python bone was too little.
With these mountains and rivers in hand, there was no need to worry about not having enough vitality. There was no need to worry about being unable to cross the fifth trial!
At this moment, Ning Fan could only be considered as a true barbarian cultivator after learning the Mountain and Sea Incantation.
At this moment, as long as he willed it, he would be able to extract a large amount of life force from the mountains, rivers, lakes, and seas for his own cultivation!
Ning Fan waved his hand. Immediately, a black and red vortex appeared in front of him, emitting a boundless suction force.
The endless life force hidden deep under the ground was immediately attracted by the vortex and flowed into Ning Fan's body at a crazy rate.
Ning Fan's old body immediately recovered its youth. Time passed bit by bit. The fifth trial was coming to an end. Two blood lines gradually appeared in Ning Fan's body.
More and more blood lines gathered and gradually turned into two drops of blood. The aura force of the blood droplets became heavier and heavier.
At the moment when Ning Fan completely passed the fifth trial, the two drops of blood completely turned into two drops of ancestral level barbarian blood!
"After passing the fifth trial, I can actually cultivate two drops of ancestral level barbarian blood!" Ning Fan's eyes flashed.
However, at the next moment, the domineering tribulation blood began to devour the two drops of ancestral level barbarian blood.
As the devouring continued, the grade of Ning Fan's tribulation blood finally broke through the Two Stars True Blood Realm and took a small step towards the Third Star Realm.
It was just a small step. In order to cultivate to the Third Star True Blood Realm, he would need to cultivate more ancestral level barbarian blood.
However, the improvement of his strength was still considerable. After completely breaking through to the Two Stars True Blood Realm, Ning Fan could fight against Late Thought Shattering Realm cultivators with just the power of his tribulation blood.
"Alright, alright. The fifth trial is finally over. The sixth trial is coming soon. Young man, I will activate the Heaven Deceiving Formation and help you pass the sixth trial … "
The eyeball was about to activate the Heaven Deceiving Formation but was stopped by Ning Fan.
"Senior, please wait. Can you let me try and see if I can pass the sixth trial with my own strength?"
"This … Alright. It's not a bad idea to let you try. However, once you fail the trial, I will immediately activate the formation. You must not die before I kill Yinmo. "
Even though the eyeball agreed to Ning Fan's request, it was still very nervous.
The next trial was the sixth trial. In the Ancient Barbarian World, only three or four out of a hundred Young Priest Barbarians could pass it.
There were also many Young Priest Barbarians who thought that they were strong and wanted to pass the trial with their own strength. However, they died with hatred and were burnt to ashes in the sixth trial …
"The Fire of Misfortune Beast … This young man has many tricks up his sleeves. He might be able to hold on for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn …" The eyeball thought to itself.
The fifth casualty was over. Moments later, the red clouds above the valley suddenly burst into flames.
At the center of the red clouds, the shadow of a six-legged strange beast slowly appeared. It was as huge as the sky. It had two heads and no horns. Its whole body was fiery red and it looked down at the valley coldly.
The moment the shadow of the strange beast appeared, Ning Fan's life force began to burn like flames. His expression changed instantly.
The sixth trial had arrived. However, the form of this trial was different from the previous five.
If it wasn't for Ning Fan's Great Five Elemental Physique which could restrain the damage of fire, he would certainly be severely injured by the fire of life force!
It was a kind of black and red flame. It was filled with densely packed flame runes, giving it a bewitching beauty.
Ning Fan tried to suppress the burning flame in his body but he realized that the power of the flame was too strong. It was not like the flames that he usually saw.
When the flame burned, it emitted the sound of wind and thunder, giving off an imposing aura that soared to the sky.
* Roar *
The shadow of the giant beast above the valley suddenly let out a bestial roar.
In the midst of the roar, the life force of the mountains and seas turned into the nourishment of the flame, setting it ablaze.
As the giant beast activated its ability, countless black and red flames surged towards the bottom of the lake where Ning Fan was. At this moment, the entire valley was submerged in a sea of fire.
Even the Dao Law of the Great Dao became distorted in the evaporation of the flames!
The mountains and rivers were melting while the lake water was evaporating. Heaven and Earth were burning red!
Venerated Miao Yan who was far away was shocked. She opened her beautiful eyes and stared at the direction of the valley in bewilderment.
At this moment, the sea of fire in the valley was monstrous. The intensity of the fire was so great that even an Immortal King Realm expert would not dare to enter the valley without permission.
She did not know what Ning Fan was doing in the valley. She only knew that the sea of fire in the valley was monstrous. The power of the flames was so overbearing that she had never seen anything like it in her life.
She did not know if Ning Fan was safe in the valley. He should be fine. After all, Ning Fan is so strong …
"Devour!"
The life force in his body was madly burned away. Ning Fan opened his mouth and swallowed the endless life force of the mountains and rivers into his stomach to replenish the life force that he had lost.
However, the speed of the life force burning was too fast. In just the first breath, the life force of the entire valley within a thousand li * (500m per li) had been used up by Ning Fan. All the mountains had turned into barren hills and the rivers had lost their former color.
In the second breath, Ning Fan had used up all the life force of the mountains and rivers within the area of ten thousand li * (500m per li).
The third breath, the fourth breath, the fifth breath …
Even though the life force of the mountains and rivers was abundant, it was not inexhaustible. According to the rate of consumption, even if Ning Fan used up all the life force of the mountains and rivers in the space of the copper pagoda, it would still be difficult for him to pass through one-tenth of the Sixth Trial.
It was no wonder that there were very few people who could pass through the Sixth Trial since ancient times. This trial was indeed extremely difficult to pass.
As for the seventh, eighth, and ninth stages, how terrifying would they be?
"If I'm just an ordinary barbarian cultivator, I would probably stop at the Sixth Trial. However, I'm not. What I have isn't barbarian blood but the Calamity Blood. "
"Besides, I still have the Life Illusion Pill. It can allow me to die three times and be reborn from the ashes … Perhaps I can seek help from the strange eyeball and give up on the Sixth Trial. But I'm not willing to give up just like this!"
He was not willing to admit defeat without a fight!
Since he had the Life Illusion Pill to save his life, he wanted to try and pass the Sixth Trial no matter what.
The mountains had life force, the sea had life force, the plants had life force and the beasts had life force. Everything in this world had life force.
The life force of the mountains and rivers would eventually be exhausted. However, the sea of fire in front of him was boundless.
"I want to extract the life force from the sea of fire to replenish the life force that I've lost!"
Ning Fan's eyes turned cold and he made a bold decision. He opened his mouth and swallowed more flames into his body, forcibly refining them.
The strange eyeball was stunned for a moment. But in the next second, it let out a strange laugh.
"This brat has comprehended the essence of the Mountain and Sea Incantation. Everything in this world has life force. This fire naturally has life force as well. However, the Fire of Disaster Beast is unparalleled in this world. It's pure wishful thinking for you to devour the life force in the fire. It's difficult. It's really difficult. "
"Forget it. I'll wait a little longer. When this kid really can't hold on any longer, I'll save him. After devouring the Fire of Disaster Beast by force, he will beg me to save him in at most ten breaths. Hehe … "
The thought of seeing the expressionless Ning Fan begging for mercy made the strange eyeball's heart feel like it was about to fly away.
Torturing the expressionless face is really a happy thing. (To be continued.)
