Following the Fourth Barbarian God's order, hundreds of millions of barbarian cultivators fell to the ground and turned back into corpses.
Ning Fan's eyes indifferently scanned across these corpses and withdrew his devil flames. He did not plan to burn these corpses to ashes.
From the Fourth Barbarian God's words, Ning Fan understood his current situation.
At that moment, he was in the first layer of the Ancient Berserker's Tomb, and the Fourth God of Berserkers was in the seventh layer.
Only by killing his way to the seventh level would he have the chance to pass the eighth trial stage. Otherwise, he would have to activate the Heaven Deceiving Array and give up on the eighth trial stage.
Ning Fan closed his eyes and sensed the situation outside.
His consciousness was trapped in the first layer of the Ancient Berserker Tomb by the Fourth God of Berserkers.
His physical body was still sitting cross-legged at the bottom of the lake outside, but it was as if he had lost his soul, unable to move at all.
Ning Fan tried to return his consciousness to his body but he realized that he was unable to do so.
The eyeball monster continued to be infatuated with the Fourth God of Berserkers and drooled at the sky. It was immersed in the beauty of the Fourth God of Berserkers and had no intention of waking up …
As expected, he was a pervert who only knew how to screw over his teammates!
Ning Fan's original plan was to pass the eighth trial if he could. If he couldn't, he would activate the Heaven Deceiving Formation and give up on this trial.
However, his consciousness could not return to his body, and he could not activate the Heaven Deceiving Formation in the outside world. He could only rely on the eyeball monster.
Unfortunately, the eyeball monster was unreliable, and it was unknown when it would wake up. Before he regained consciousness, he naturally could not activate the Heaven Deceiving Formation to save Ning Fan's life …
"In other words, before the eyeball wakes up, I can't use the power of the formation to leave this place, unless I get through the eighth trial …"
Even if they encountered countless dangers in the eighth trial, they still couldn't leave. They could only brace themselves and continue on …
What a strange pair of eyes!
Ning Fan knitted his brows. In the end, he turned into a ray of golden light and flew towards the higher sky along the Heaven Stairway.
At the end of the stairway, there was an altar covered in paper money. The altar was octagonal, but there were nine stone pillars on it. The nine stone pillars formed an ancient teleportation array that led straight to the second level of the Ancient Barbarian Tomb.
After the altar appeared, more and more wooden boxes appeared in the sky, floating aimlessly.
The seal on the wooden chest was very mysterious. It could isolate a cultivator's spiritual sense from probing it.
As soon as Ning Fan's spirit sense came into contact with those wooden chests, it was gently pushed away by a gentle force. He could not use his spirit sense to examine those wooden chests.
'I wonder what's in these wooden boxes …'
After his eyes were covered with the green light, he looked at the wooden boxes again. This time, his gaze could slightly penetrate through the restrictions on the wooden boxes.
He saw that in each wooden box, there was a magic treasure sealed. Most of the Magic Treasures were low-grade and mid-grade Immortal Artifacts, and some of the better ones were only high-grade Immortal Artifacts. There wasn't even a single Artificial Immortal Artifact.
Moreover, these Magic Treasures were mostly covered in rust and didn't have much spirituality left. They'd existed for countless years and were already old to the point of being difficult to use.
Low grade and shabby … Ning Fan didn't covet these magical treasures at all. He flew straight to the altar, prepared to use the formation of the altar to enter the second level.
However, as soon as he stepped onto the altar, the dignified voice of an old man rang out.
"According to the order of Dao Man Mountain, those who passed the first test of the Ancient Man Tomb can take a treasure from this place …"
"If you don't take the treasure, it will be considered as giving up the reward and you won't be allowed to enter the second floor …"
"Those who take more will be punished by Dao Man Mountain's finger …"
Ning Fan was slightly stunned. This voice was left behind by a powerful cultivator in this place. It had existed for countless years.
Originally, he didn't think much of the broken magical treasures here, but the voice demanded him to take a treasure from this place. Otherwise, he wouldn't be allowed to enter the second floor.
Ning Fan gave it a try. Before he took the treasure, he really couldn't activate the teleportation formation to enter the second floor. There was a rule set by a powerful cultivator in this teleportation formation. One must take the treasure from this place before he could enter the teleportation formation.
What a troublesome rule …
Forget it. Even though I don't think much of the broken magical treasures here, I'll just take one.
Ning Fan wasn't picky. He randomly chose a wooden box that was closest to him and waved at it. The wooden box immediately moved closer to Ning Fan and opened on its own.
The magical treasure that was sealed in the wooden box was a palm-sized shabby golden shield. It was just a mid-grade Immortal Artifact. Due to the fact that the shield was extremely shabby, the power it could exert might not even be comparable to a Void Fragmentation Realm magical treasure.
What a useless shield …
"This brat actually chose the shield … Does he know something? Otherwise, why would he choose the shield among the thousands of magical treasures …" The Fourth Barbarian God's beautiful eyes revealed a serious expression for the first time.
The Ancient Barbarian Tomb was the holy land of the Barbarian Race. It was created by the First Barbarian God Dao Man Shan with his own strength. Not only was it a place to store the corpses of barbarian cultivators, but it was also the place where the previous Barbarian Gods tested their disciples.
Of course, the Ancient Barbarian Tomb had a more important mission … a supreme treasure was buried here …
There was a rule set by the First Barbarian God Dao Man Shan in the Ancient Barbarian Tomb. Any cultivator who passed the first floor would receive a reward.
The Fourth Barbarian God couldn't interfere or stop this rule. Her original intention was to let Ning Fan die in the Ancient Barbarian Tomb, but she couldn't stop Ning Fan from receiving the reward …
"You have chosen the five-star mid-grade barbarian weapon, the Golden Shield. Now, you can enter the second floor … "
The old man's voice resounded again.
The moment the voice resounded, all the wooden boxes disappeared. Ning Fan finally entered the second floor of the Ancient Barbarian Tomb through the teleportation formation.
Ning Fan had already put away the shabby shield and left it at the side.
At this moment, he was cautiously looking at the corpses in the second floor. The number of corpses was obviously lesser than the first floor, but each of them was a corpse of Du Zhen.
There were more than ten thousand of them scattered around. The moment Ning Fan entered the second floor, the corpses stood up unsteadily. Their eyes glinted with ferocious light as if they were alive.
"Kill the Tai Cang Jie Ling!"
"Protect the glory of the Ancient Barbarian Tribe!"
"Kill!"
Roars filled the air. Each of them carried the hatred of the annihilation of their entire tribe. At this moment, nearly ten thousand cultivators of the Du Zhen Barbarian Tribe who had been dead for many years rushed towards Ning Fan and surrounded him.
An Early Du Zhen Barbarian Tribe middle-aged man was the fastest. He chose to self-detonate when he was only one thousand zhang * (3.33m per zhang) away from Ning Fan!
With the point of self-detonation as the center, the chaotic law of the Great Dao gushed out like a flood. A destructive storm that could destroy a cultivation planet swept across the distance of one thousand zhang * (3.33m per zhang), trying to engulf Ning Fan within it.
The self-detonation of a cultivator of the Du Zhen Barbarian Tribe was extremely powerful. Even the Thought Breaking Old Monster did not dare to stand still and let the enemy self-detonate.
Ning Fan, of course, would not stand still like an idiot. He suddenly raised his hand and pressed his five fingers forward. The heaven and earth in front of him seemed to have frozen under his pressure.
That destructive storm was also extinguished by him!
Even the She Kong Old Monster could not withstand the self-detonation of the Du Zhen Barbarian Tribe so easily. However, Ning Fan did it without any effort.
His body began to emit a monstrous red light. At this moment, he had used the power of the Jie Xue. His qi was violent and crazy.
At this moment, his strength was almost comparable to an old monster at the Peak of the Thought Breaking Realm. It was not difficult for him to self-detonate the Du Zhen Barbarian Tribe! His strength was incomparable to that of the She Kong Old Monster.
Another ten or so cultivators of the Du Zhen Barbarian Tribe sneakily attacked him from behind. This time, Ning Fan did not even turn his head. The red light on his body became even brighter. That red light even turned into countless tangible red lines that flew out.
As soon as those red lines flew out, they immediately turned into red light of tribulation sense that was as thick as a thumb. They made an ear-piercing air-piercing sound and attacked the barbarian cultivators who were close to Ning Fan.
A Mid Du Zhen Barbarian Tribe cultivator saw a red light in front of him before he could even attack Ning Fan. In the next moment, a red light of tribulation sense easily penetrated the top of his skull. It went into his Sea of Consciousness and left a bloody hole the size of a thumb on his forehead. As the tribulation sense red light wantonly destroyed his body, the cultivator died …
Another burly man who refined his body tried to get close to Ning Fan and sneakily attack him with his fist. However, the moment he swung his fist, a red light penetrated his skull.
One, two, three … Ning Fan killed more and more barbarian cultivators of the Du Zhen Barbarian Tribe. With the strength of his Jie Xue, killing Du Zhen Barbarian Tribe cultivators was as easy as taking something out of his pocket.
The Fourth Barbarian God knitted her brows. She knew that the corpses in the second floor still could not stop Ning Fan. However, this time, she did not stop the massacre.
An hour later, Ning Fan stood on the mountain of corpses and the sea of blood in the second floor. Even though he had killed all the barbarian cultivators of the Du Zhen Barbarian Tribe, there were still many wounds on his body.
This was the reason why the Fourth Barbarian God did not stop him. The corpses in the second floor were not sacrificed in vain. Their sacrifice could make Ning Fan pay for it.
The Heavenly Stairway that led to the third floor slowly appeared. At the end of the stairway was an octagonal altar. There were nine ancient stone pillars that formed a teleportation formation.
As soon as the altar appeared, tens of thousands of stone chests made of bluestone appeared in the sky.
Magical treasures were also sealed in these stone chests. The lowest among them was a First Nirvana Acquired Immortal Treasure while the highest was a Third Nirvana Immortal Treasure.
Of course, all of the magical treasures were very shabby and some of them were even half-destroyed …
"A Third Nirvana Immortal Treasure huh … It's still useless."
Ning Fan did not look at these stone chests. Instead, he turned into a ray of golden light and rushed towards the altar.
The moment he stepped on the altar, the voice of an old man resounded between heaven and earth.
"According to Dao Man Shan's order, if you want to enter the third floor, you must exchange the treasure you obtained from the first floor for another treasure."
"You are only allowed to exchange for the same type of magical treasure …"
"If you forcefully take the magical treasure from this place, you will be punished by Dao Man Shan's finger …"
The voice reverberated between heaven and earth for a few times before disappearing. There were originally tens of thousands of stone chests in this place, but as soon as the voice resounded, countless stone statues immediately disappeared from the heaven and earth.
In just a few breaths' time, there were only slightly more than forty stone chests left for Ning Fan to choose from.
Ning Fan was slightly startled. It seemed that if he wanted to enter the third floor, he must exchange the Golden Shield he obtained from the first floor for a magical treasure in the second floor.
The remaining forty over stone chests all had shield-type magical treasures sealed inside.
Ning Fan had chosen the shield in the first floor, so he could only exchange the shield in the second floor.
Among the forty over stone chests, the shield with the highest grade was a Second Nirvana Acquired Silver Shield. After pondering for a moment, Ning Fan chose this stone chest.
When he made his choice, the Golden Shield in his hand along with the other stone chests disappeared in an instant.
Only the silver shield that he chose flew out of the stone chest by itself and into his hand.
"You have chosen the Middle Grade Six Star Barbarian Treasure, Ling Xiao Shield. Now, you can enter the third floor …"
Holding the silver shield in his hand, Ning Fan slightly pondered.
In the first floor, he obtained a Middle Grade Immortal Treasure Golden Shield.
In the second floor, he exchanged the Golden Shield for a Second Nirvana Acquired Silver Shield.
If I get to the third floor, will I be able to exchange for a shield of a higher grade?
If I get to the fourth floor, fifth floor …
Perhaps this shabby small shield is not useless after all …
After keeping the Ling Xiao Shield temporarily, Ning Fan entered the third floor of the Ancient Barbaric Tomb through the teleportation formation on the altar.
There were fewer corpses in the third floor. There were only a thousand of them, but each of them was a Void Shedding Corpse.
"Kill the Tai Cang Jie Ling!"
"Protect my Barbaric Mountain and Sea!"
"Kill!"
More than a thousand Void Shedding Barbarian Cultivators crawled up from the ground and roared furiously. Their aura force was earth-shattering.
Ning Fan's eyes finally showed a serious expression. Without waiting for the Void Shedding Barbarian Cultivators to attack, he waved his hand and released countless red lines, taking the initiative to attack.
The red lines turned into red rays of tribulation intent and attacked each of the Void Shedding Barbarian Cultivators. Only a few Sheshe Void primary stage cultivators were unable to block the red beam's attack. The red beam pierced through their skulls and destroyed their sea of consciousness, killing them.
Although most of the barbarian cultivators were injured by the red light of tribulation sense, they did not die. Instead, they gained the strength to resist Ning Fan.
After all, the group of cultivators had already reached the Renhuang Emptiness Realm. Within the Four Heavens, the Renhuang Emptiness Realm cultivators were all famous giants. How could they be instantly killed by a group of cultivators?
One by one, the Void Abandoning Barbarian Cultivators unleashed their divine arts, and countless images of Dao appeared in the world.
There were images of wild apes striking the sky, lightning chariots crashing into the sun, and ancient barbarians creating humans. All of these were the prelude to these cultivators casting their great divine abilities.
At the next moment, thousands of Void Rending Divine Abilities attacked Ning Fan. The colorful rays of magic techniques were so dazzling that no one could open their eyes.
"I can't …"
Ning Fan sighed softly. Even though his current strength had skyrocketed and he was almost comparable to a Peak Thought Fragmentation Realm expert, it was still impossible for him to take on the joint attack of more than one thousand She Kong cultivators head-on.
Not to mention him, even the true Ten Thousand Ancient Immortal Venerables would not be able to withstand it.
Even though he might not be able to withstand the joint attack of the group of cultivators, it did not mean that he could not avoid it. Ning Fan leaped and turned into a ray of golden light. In an instant, he ran out of the attacking range of the group of cultivators, causing their joint attack to miss its target.
He hovered high in the sky, looking down at the group of cultivators below him. After pondering for a while, he decided to use the Oblivion Current Technique that he had just learned.
This technique was the secret technique that the Seventh Barbarian God Ta Gu was famous for. Among the divine abilities of the Immortal Emperor Realm, it could be considered as a top-notch great divine ability!
This technique could turn the Dao into a long river, making everything that could not be erased disappear and flow into oblivion!
Ning Fan had already formed eleven million Annihilation Runes. The destructive power of this technique was already very impressive.
"I use bones as a mountain!"
Eleven million Annihilation Runes flew out from Ning Fan's body. All of a sudden, they covered the entire sky, making it look like the devil clouds of doomsday.
Under the countless runes, the shadow of a black bone mountain slowly appeared.
Gradually, the number of bone mountains in the sky increased.
The second mountain, the third mountain, the fourth mountain … The number of bone mountains continued to increase until the ninth mountain stopped.
At the moment when the nine bone mountains appeared, the expressions of all the barbarian cultivators changed. They felt a tremendous force descending from the sky, making them breathless and unable to fly up into the sky!
It was as if each of them was carrying nine gigantic mountains on their shoulders and they were being suppressed by the power of the nine mountains!
Under the suppression of this tremendous force, not to mention using their divine abilities to attack Ning Fan, even their breathing began to quicken. Their qi was obviously in a mess and it was difficult for them to bear the weight. There were even a few cultivators who were directly crushed by the tremendous force and fell to their knees on the ground. They could not bear the might of Ning Fan's nine mountains!
"Blood as a sea!"
A black sea suddenly appeared under the nine mountains. Very soon, the second sea and the third sea appeared one after another. The strange phenomenon only stopped when the eighth sea appeared.
After the eight seas appeared, heaven and earth immediately fell into darkness. Everything seemed to have disappeared. Heaven and earth had changed!
A few barbarian cultivators who were shrouded in the darkness directly fell into confusion and began to fall.
At this moment, Ning Fan raised his palm. The place where his finger passed through easily tore heaven and earth apart.
"Palm as the Dao!"
He raised his palm and pressed it towards the barbarian cultivators below him, just like what Ta Gu had done in the past.
As soon as he pressed his palm, the nine mountains disappeared and the eight seas converged into one, turning into a long black river that flowed quietly.
Ning Fan stood on the river while the barbarian cultivators sank into the water. Each of them wore a terrified expression.
To their horror, they realized that as soon as they fell into the river, they could not break free even with their cultivation base!
They could not break free and could not resist. All they could do was sink to the bottom of the river bit by bit!
Moreover, their cultivation base, Dao Sense, life force, memories and everything else began to dissolve in this long black river.
Bit by bit, everything turned into oblivion and disappeared without a trace …
"Dao as the Oblivion Current!"
Ning Fan put down his palm and formed hundreds of hand seals in one go. Immediately, the undercurrent in the entire river began to surge.
This technique was called Dao as the Oblivion Current. It was the strongest ability that Ning Fan could display now!
Unfortunately, he did not have as many annihilation runes as Ta Gu. Thus, this technique could not be as powerful as Ta Gu's.
If Ta Gu uses this technique, all of them would probably die within a few breaths once they sink to the bottom of the river. None of them would be spared.
When Ning Fan used this technique, he could not kill all the barbarians in a short period of time. Only a few of them died in the first few breaths.
Most of the barbarians only died one after another after enduring this technique for more than one hundred breaths.
However, there were more than twenty Peak Shefu Void Realm experts who joined hands with each other. Even after one thousand breaths had passed, they did not die.
Unfortunately, how long could they last?
Ning Fan stood on the river of annihilation, trapping the twenty over Peak Shefu Void Realm experts at the bottom of the river for one day and one night.
After one day and one night, the twenty over Peak Shefu Void Realm experts had to die no matter how unwilling they were.
After killing all the barbarians, Ning Fan dispelled the Oblivion Current Technique. Both his body and mind were exhausted.
Even though the Oblivion Current Technique was powerful, it also consumed a lot of energy from his body.
The stairway to the fourth level had already appeared, and tens of thousands of metal boxes had appeared in the sky.
Ning Fan did not immediately ascend the sacrificial altar. Instead, he chose to sit cross-legged in meditation. After recovering his strength for a while, he ascended the sacrificial altar.
"According to the orders of Dao Barbarian Mountain, you have passed the test of the third level and can exchange the shield in your hand for one of the shields of the Ten Nations … After that, you can enter the fourth level."
The old man's dignified voice rang out once more.
The iron boxes in the air disappeared one after another, leaving only ten iron boxes floating in front of Ning Fan.
There was a shield sealed in each of the ten metal boxes, and the name and grade of the shield were written on the outside of each metal box.
"Xu Country's Mysterious Fire Shield, Mid-Grade Seven Stars."
"Demon Kingdom's Sea Illuminating Shield, Seven Stars High Grade."
"Sun Cloud Shield of the Ape Nation, Upper Grade Seven Stars."
"Mirage Sea Country Haze Traversing Sky Shield, High Grade Seven Star."
"Thunder Shield of Lei Chen Kingdom, peak of seven stars."
"Xu Guohai Turtle Shield, Medium Grade Seven Stars."
"Da Nation's Rainbow Wing Shield, Top Grade Seven Stars."
"Chi Country's East Mountain Shield, peak seven-star."
"Gu Country's Heaven Battling Shield, peak six-star."
"Lu Country's Wu Ya Shield, Low Grade Seven Stars."
Ning Fan's gaze swept across the ten iron boxes. What interested him more were the two shields that had reached the peak of seven stars.
They were the Thunder Shield of Lei Chen Kingdom and the Eastern Mountain Shield of Chi Country.
According to Ning Fan's estimation, a Five Star Barbarian Weapon was equivalent to an Immortal Treasure.
A Six Star Barbarian Weapon was equivalent to a First to Fourth Nirvana Postcelestial Treasure.
A Seven Star Barbarian Weapon was equivalent to a Fifth to Eighth Nirvana Postcelestial Treasure.
These two Peak Seven Star Shields were already equivalent to an Eighth Nirvana Postcelestial Treasure. They were not considered as weak treasures.
If Ning Fan had to exchange the Divine Firmament Shield for one of the shields, he would probably exchange it for one of the two …
"Which one should I exchange for …?" Ning Fan muttered to himself.
While he was pondering, the Fourth God of Barbarian's delicate face showed a hint of nervousness for the first time.
The Ten Nations Shield was a test that the First God of Barbarian Dao, Man Shan, gave to his descendants.
Only those who were fated to choose the Shield of Inheritance would have the chance to inherit the supreme treasure left behind by the First God of Barbarian …
The Fourth God of Barbarian didn't want the supreme treasure to fall into the hands of Ning Fan, the Grand Firmament Tribulation Spirit … That would be a blasphemy to the sacred relic of the Barbarian Race.
If one didn't choose a shield-type magical treasure on the first floor, he wouldn't have the chance to get it.
If one didn't choose the Shield of Inheritance on the third floor, he wouldn't have the chance to get the sacred relic either.
"This young man chose the shield on the first floor. This might just be a coincidence. The secret of the Ancient Barbarian Tomb's inheritance was only known by the first four Barbarian Gods. Even the fifth God of Barbarian didn't know about it because the Barbarian Gods after the fifth generation were the slaves of Grand Firmament. They didn't have the right to know about this secret … This young man isn't a Barbarian God. It's impossible for him to know the secret of the Ancient Country God Exterminating Shield … "
"He won't choose the Shield of Inheritance. He definitely won't …"
Under the slightly nervous gaze of the Fourth God of Barbarian, Ning Fan finally made a decision and raised his hand towards the Thunder Shield.
Not only was the shield of the highest grade, but its body was also condensed with the Dao of Lightning. Its power was extraordinary.
If Ning Fan had to choose one out of the ten shields, he would rather choose this shield.
"He made the wrong choice!"
The Fourth God of Barbarian heaved a sigh of relief. She even started to look down on Ning Fan.
What she looked down on was that Ning Fan was indeed very shallow. He could only see the power of the Thunder Shield but not the scariness of the Shield of Inheritance …
It was no wonder. Even with her eyesight which was comparable to an Incipient Saint Realm expert, it was still difficult for her to see how extraordinary the Shield of Inheritance was. What kind of ability did Ning Fan have? It wouldn't be strange if he couldn't see through it.
"There's no need to look anymore. This young man made a wrong choice. He won't have the chance to get the Ancient Country God Exterminating Shield …"
The Fourth God of Barbarian closed her beautiful eyes slightly, as if she was disdainful to look at it anymore.
However, at the next moment, she suddenly opened her eyes. Her clear eyes were filled with nervousness again.
It was because Ning Fan had put his hand down again.
His gaze moved away from the Thunder Shield of Lei Chen Country and landed on the ninth metal box.
It was the Ancient Country Heaven Battling Shield.
This shield was just a Peak Six Star Barbaric Weapon which was equivalent to a Fourth Nirvana Postcelestial Nirvana Realm magical treasure. Its power should not be comparable to the Thunder Shield.
However, when Ning Fan looked at the shield, he frowned for the first time.
No matter how he looked at it, it was just an ordinary shield. Why did it give him a feeling of fear and trepidation …
It seems … Strange … (To be continued.)
