Central imperial realm, Greencloud Lower Region!
Three large suns and nine small suns hung in the sky, emitting dazzling and blazing light that covered the entire Central imperial realm.
As the Central imperial realm was simply too vast, it wasn't an exaggeration to say that it was boundless, so these 12 suns had to work together to bring daylight to the entire Central imperial realm. Even so, there were still some extremely remote places that couldn't be illuminated by the sun, so they were in darkness all year round and almost never saw sunlight.
However, after 24 hours of daylight, these 12 suns would lose half of their energy and their light would dim, causing the entire Central imperial realm to enter darkness. At the same time, they would turn into moons and spread weak moonlight to illuminate the entire world. After another 24 hours, it would be daytime again!
At this moment, it was a brand new day and the sun had just risen!
Outside Red Rock City!
A sickly and pale young man dressed in black was riding on a Black Dragon Horse as he slowly made his way towards Red Rock City.
It was Xiao Fan!
Three days ago, Xiao Fan had finally returned to the Central imperial realm through the space-time tunnel. However, as expected, he had used all his strength to stabilize the space-time tunnel so that the power of time wouldn't transport him to another point in time. As a result, his strength was completely depleted and his body suffered severe internal injuries.
As a result, he had turned into this sickly person!
However, it was worth it because Xiao Fan and the others had arrived at the Central imperial realm at the same time. Next, he just had to go to other places and find them.
However, perhaps because his strength had decreased too much and the distance was too far, Xiao Fan only sensed the aura of the Demon-Slaying Halberd of Apocalypse and the others when he first arrived at the Central imperial realm. After that, he completely lost contact with them.
What he could confirm was that his father Xiao Feng, his mother Cheng Qingxue, and his younger brother Xiao Wen were in a lower province in the east of the Central imperial realm. Zhang Feiyang, Yue Qing, and Cheng Long were in a middle province in the north. Lin Yueru, Murong Keke, and Ling Xiaoxiao were in a higher province in the south. Xia He and the wretched, skinny old Daoist were in the middle province closest to him.
The most important thing now was to find them because they were basically ordinary people. Even if they had the protection of the Demon Slaying Apocalypse Halberd and the Deity Vanquishing Sword, there were some things that could not be said for sure. Therefore, just in case, it was better to find them as soon as possible.
However, if he wanted to find them, he needed to recover his strength as soon as possible. Only when he recovered his strength could he travel long distances to find them. Only then could he protect them when danger came. Otherwise, everything would be empty talk.
"Wu!"
The Black Dragon Horse let out a low whimper, as if it was asking Xiao Fan if he wanted to enter the city!
This Black Dragon Horse was caught by Xiao Fan in the primeval forest. Three days ago, Xiao Fan finally landed in the Central imperial realm. However, because he had exhausted all his strength and suffered heavy internal injuries, he was unable to move. He had been lying in the grass for three whole days. It was only a few hours ago that he was able to move his body.
During these three days, Demonic Beasts constantly came to Xiao Fan's side after smelling his scent, wanting to eat him. Although Xiao Fan could not move his entire body, the murderous aura on his body could still be released freely. Therefore, whenever a Demonic Beast approached Xiao Fan. Xiao Fan only needed to use his mind to release his murderous aura.
How heavy was Xiao Fan's murderous aura? Therefore, all the Demonic Beasts that approached Xiao Fan, no matter how strong they were, once they felt Xiao Fan's murderous aura, they were immediately scared to the point of peeing their pants. Each and every one of them could not stop trembling. At the same time, they were like wild cats that had their tails stepped on, screaming in fear. At the same time, they frantically fled into the distance.
This Black Dragon Horse originally wanted to eat Xiao Fan, but its luck was really bad. This was because it just happened to arrive in front of Xiao Fan before he could move his body. Encountering such a situation, Xiao Fan naturally would not be polite. Therefore, he directly raised his hand. He grabbed the Black Dragon Horse's neck and released his murderous aura. He forcefully subdued the Black Dragon Horse as his mount.
Most Demonic Beasts had simple spiritual intelligence. Therefore, when it sensed the murderous aura from Xiao Fan, which was so strong that it was almost tangible, it immediately became terrified. It immediately peed two large mouthfuls of yellow horse urine on the spot and obediently became Xiao Fan's temporary mount. It carried him out of the primitive forest quickly.
After walking out of the primitive forest, Xiao Fan roughly sensed that there was a strong human aura in the west. He then knew that there should be a city there. Therefore, after giving the Black Dragon Horse an order, the Black Dragon Horse carried him slowly towards Red Rock City.
"Enter!"
Xiao Fan was still severely injured and even speaking was difficult for him. Therefore, he could only speak concisely to the Black Dragon Horse.
"Wu!"
The Black Dragon Horse nodded its large head to indicate that it understood. Then, it lifted its legs again and walked towards Red Rock City.
At this moment, there was a sudden change!
Behind him, a group of Cloud Carriages whizzed over from afar. When the Cloud Carriages approached Xiao Fan, they suddenly stopped above Xiao Fan's head. Countless people looked down from the carriages and stared at Xiao Fan in astonishment.
Xiao Fan glanced at them and couldn't be bothered with them. He closed his eyes again and allowed the Black Dragon Horse to move towards Red Rock City.
In fact, Xiao Fan knew what they were surprised about. They were surprised by the Black Dragon Horse!
The number of Demonic Beasts in the Central imperial realm was uncountable. Among them, there were differences in strength. The Black Dragon Horse was considered a middle-grade Demonic Beast. Although it was insignificant in many places, it was a powerful Demonic Beast in Red Rock City.
Although he didn't know where he was, Xiao Fan could clearly sense that many cultivators in Red Rock City were weak. Most of them were in the Houtian, Xiantian, Life, and Death realms. There weren't many who could break through to the Nirvana Stage.
The Black Dragon Horse was a Nirvana Stage cultivator. It could already be considered as a Nirvana First Cycle cultivator. Moreover, as a Demonic Beast's strength was generally stronger than a human cultivator of the same level, the Black Dragon Horse's true battle prowess was something that even a Nirvana Second Cycle cultivator would have no choice but to face!
There weren't many Nirvana First Cycle cultivators in this group of cloud carriages. Therefore, when they saw Xiao Fan riding a Black Dragon Horse that was extremely rare and extremely difficult to catch, they couldn't help but stop and watch.
"My name is Shangguan Tong. May I know how to address you?"
One of the Cloud Carriages started to move and caught up to Xiao Fan. Then, a girl who appeared to be around eighteen or nineteen years old, with a tall figure and delicate appearance, wearing a red martial attire, and appearing valiant and formidable, jumped down from the sky. She stood by the side of the road with a smile on her face as she asked Xiao Fan who was riding on the back of the Black Dragon Horse.
"Xiao Fan!" The Black Dragon Horse immediately stopped. Xiao Fan opened his eyes and turned his head slightly. He glanced at the girl, nodded, and said calmly.
"Xiao Fan?" Shangguan Tong raised her eyebrows. She seemed to be surprised. Then, she smiled and said, "Your name is a little special because you have the same name as the Demon Emperor!"
"You can say that!" In response, Xiao Fan did not say much. Instead, a rare smile appeared on his face as he nodded.
He felt that this girl named Shangguan Tong was a good person. So, since she was polite to him, Xiao Fan naturally returned the smile.
"I have to say, other than the fact that your name is the same as the Demon Emperor's, your entire aura is somewhat similar to the Demon Emperor's!" Shangguan Tong looked at Xiao Fan from head to toe. Her eyes curved into a beautiful crescent moon. At the same time, her mouth revealed two white canine teeth. She smiled and said, "My family has a few portraits of the Demon Emperor. They were all sold at a high price at the auction! "
"Although your face is completely different from the Demon Emperor in the portrait, and I know that you are definitely not him, I don't know why, but I feel that you and the Demon Emperor are really similar in terms of charm!"
"At first glance, you really do have a bit of the Demon Emperor's style!"
Hearing Shangguan Tong's words. Xiao Fan smiled and didn't say anything!
Shangguan Tong said that his face was different from his past self. The reason was very simple. When he had first arrived in the Central Emperor Realm, he had experienced the initial fear, despair, and dejection. After witnessing the cruelty of this world, he had finally decided to pull himself together and embark on the path of cultivation because of his desire to live.
When he was about to step onto the path of cultivation, Xiao Fan remembered something. So, in order to protect himself, he began to learn to hide his identity.
That was before Xiao Fan entered a Holy Land. Xiao Fan had just passed the preliminary test of this Holy Land and hadn't really entered the Holy Land yet. As a result, this Holy Land was completely destroyed by the experts invited by their enemies that night.
The next day, the enemies of this Holy Land began to search for all the related people of this Holy Land one by one. They were determined to eliminate all the weeds and leave no one alive!
Like Xiao Fan, those disciples who had just passed the Holy Land's test but didn't have much to do with the Holy Land were also killed!
In the end, among all the related people of that Holy Land, only Xiao Fan and a few others were lucky enough to escape this disaster.
The reason wasn't complicated. Although Xiao Fan had passed the preliminary test of this Holy Land, he was one of the last few to pass. Moreover, it was already late at that time. The two disciples in charge of registering personal information in the Holy Land had been busy all day and were anxious to go back and rest. In addition, this matter wasn't urgent, so the two of them didn't store the information of Xiao Fan and the others who passed the Holy Land's test. They planned to store it the next day.
And it was because of this reason that when the enemies of the Holy Land began to use the information to capture people one by one, Xiao Fan was so scared that he was drenched in sweat. In the end, he passed through this daunting experience without any danger.
And it was also because of this reason that Xiao Fan began to reflect.
This time, he was lucky and escaped by a fluke. What about the next time? If his information was already stored, would he still be alive?
Therefore, in order to survive, he had to learn how to hide himself, especially all of his true information.
Therefore, Xiao Fan decided not to cultivate for the time being. Instead, he decided to find a way to learn the art of disguise. Once he had made some progress in it, he decided to stay low-key and enter some Holy Lands that didn't care too much about one's true identity to cultivate.
Later, as his strength improved, Xiao Fan learned more. Not only did he learn how to hide his true appearance, but he also learned how to hide his true aura, how to hide his true charm, and so on. In short, Xiao Fan would notice any details that might expose his true identity.
Before Xiao Fan truly rose to power, Xiao Fan had learned all kinds of secret techniques to hide his true identity. There were as many as three hundred and ninety-eight types of secret techniques!
And it was precisely because Xiao Fan had always been good at hiding his true identity that when Xiao Fan was chased by the Central imperial realm's government for a thousand years, he was able to escape with his life. This was because no matter how the government investigated, they couldn't find Xiao Fan's true identity at all. They couldn't even find out which one was Xiao Fan's true identity!
After he became an Emperor, Xiao Fan no longer hid his true appearance. But even so, his face couldn't be seen clearly by ordinary people. Unless Xiao Fan was willing, people who weren't Emperors could only see a blurry and ordinary face. Moreover, they would forget it in the blink of an eye. It was impossible to remember.
Therefore, it could be said that in the entire Central imperial realm, there were only a few people who knew his true appearance and identity.
And the few portraits of himself in Shangguan Tong's house must be one of the most commonly used masks. It wasn't his true appearance at all. Because of this, Shangguan Tong couldn't recognize him at all.
As for the aspect of charm, charm was the most important detail in determining a person's true identity. However, at the same time, it was also the most difficult detail to hide. Therefore, no matter how Xiao Fan tried to hide it, he was still unable to do it perfectly. There were still some flaws in it.
His true charm was also revealed along with all of his hidden identities.
But fortunately, being able to determine a person's true identity through charm was extremely rare. There might not even be one in a billion people. This was because this ability was an innate ability and couldn't be learned. At that time, the government had almost searched the entire Central imperial realm and only found a dozen people who could accurately determine Xiao Fan's identity through charm.
They had once forced Xiao Fan into a desperate situation, but Xiao Fan had sacrificed his life to kill them. Therefore, after they died, the government couldn't accurately track down Xiao Fan's whereabouts anymore.
Right now, this little girl, Shangguan Tong, was actually such a gifted person. This really surprised Xiao Fan! (End)
