Chapter 300
As the troops arrived in a neat formation, Ning Fan’s eyes turned gloomy .
There were one hundred thousand Gold Core Realm beasts on the front line clearing the path like a massive locust plague . On the middle of the formation were five thousand Nascent Soul Realm beasts, forming up a protective line around thirteen silver war chariots which were as dazzling as lightning flashes . Each of the chariots had a Divine Transformation Realm expert standing on its front . All of them wore armor glowing in starlight and their bodies were silvery and illusory . Despite that, their presence emanated a tremendous amount of aura force .
All thirteen of the Wild Beasts which were transformed from star spirits were in their human forms!
Even though they had yet to completely turn into human form as they still had some parts of their beast bodies remaining, their achievement was already very significant . Underestimating them would definitely be an act of foolishness . Among the group of Wild Beasts, 7 were at the Early Divine Transformation Realm beasts, 5 were at the Mid Divine Transformation Realm while one of them had already attained the Late Divine Transformation Realm . The one who gave the command to kill Ning Fan was none other than the strongest among them, the Late Divine Transformation Realm Wild Beast .
As his command echoed in the sky, five thousand sea beasts in the front lines immediately let out strange roars and dashed towards Ning Fan, separating the ocean waves .
“Demon troops!”
Ning Fan’s eyes flashed with seriousness . These sea beasts which were charging towards him were certainly not any scattered and unorganized beasts but a group of well-trained demon armies!
Although Ning Fan was not really familiar with the Star Sea, he could guess that such a massive group of demon armies must not harbor any simple intentions for appearing so suddenly in this place .
However, no matter what intentions they had, be it evil or kind, he allowed no one to stop Xi Ran from gathering the Soul Refining Sand .
“Go to hell!”
Ning Fan made a step forward and the great momentum condensed into a sword . As the sword light swept across the incoming troops, all five thousand of them were split into half in an instant, filling the bottom of the sea with fresh blood .
Killing Gold Core Realm experts instantly with a single step . That terrifying means had caused the demon troops which were marching towards him to be stunned and remained in place at one thousand li* (500m) away from Ning Fan .
An immense killing intent radiated from Ning Fan’s body, spreading in all directions . Facing his killing intent, none of the beast among the troops other than the Wild Beasts could restrain their fear!
“It’s a foreign Divine Transformation Realm expert! We can’t possibly fight against him . Wild Generals, please provide assistance!”
Wild Generals simply meant the Wild Beasts which were recognized as the demon generals in their race . Since their enemy was a Divine Transformation Realm expert who could not be defeated by Gold Core Realm cultivators, it was no longer a battle that could be won by just having a large number of troops .
“Isn’t he just a Divine Transformation Realm cultivator? What’s so scary about him?! I, Xie Gu1, won’t even need ten breaths to take this person’s life!”
On the eleventh war chariot among the thirteen which were lined up in a proper formation, an Early Divine Transformation Realm being let out a cold harrumph . As he released the reins in his hands, his chariot turned into a blinding silver light and shot out from the troops’ formation . When the light faded away, an elderly man wearing a star armor emerged .
Standing in front of the chariot, he expressed a mighty aura like that of a massive cloud above the sky . Without any delay, he began moving his fingers to make a hand seal, as if he was trying to perform some kind of demonic technique .
As soon as he activated that technique, the location where the five thousand sea beasts died just now was immediately filled with countless blood balls which were condensed from the blood mist . Basking in the silver light radiating from the bottom of the sea, the blood balls fused together with each other and eventually forming fifty large blood shadows with a body glowing in blood light . All of them had three heads and four arms but they had no faces or noses .
Each of them emitted strange cries, releasing the qi comparable to that of a Peak Nascent Soul Realm cultivator . Fifty Nascent Soul Realm blood shadows then fearlessly dashed towards Ning Fan and Xi Ran in the form of blood threads .
“It’s the Blood Shadow Technique! It’s the strongest technique of General Xie! It’s really unexpected that before wiping out the star island, we are able to witness General Xie going into action . We’re truly fortunate!”
“Haha! This Blood Shadow Technique is hard to defend against . Without knowing the key in blocking it, that young man is probably going to run out of luck!”
Each of the demon beasts revealed a look of awe and admiration . A short while later, all of their facial expressions turned savage as they stared coldly at Ning Fan as if they were staring at a dead person .
As for the little girl Xi Ran who was immersing herself in collecting the Soul Refining Send, she immediately felt nervous the moment she sensed the incoming attacks of the blood shadows . Anxiously, she warned Ning Fan .
“You must be careful! This is the Blood Shadow Technique! Through manipulating the blood qi to summon the dead spirits, they can use the blood shadows to fight their battles for them . You must never kill the blood shadows . If you kill them, they will keep regenerating by splitting themselves and combining together . In the end, they might even become a stronger blood shadow which is at a level above the Divine Transformation Realm!”
The current her was in the midst of using her secret technique . Thus, she was unable to move a single muscle and she needed to rely on Ning Fan to protect her . Since she was sharing the same fate as Ning Fan, she would of course be worried about Ning Fan’s safety .
Unfortunately, when she tried to warn Ning Fan, she could not avoid getting distracted, causing her to suffer a backlash from her secret technique . The next moment, her Sea of Consciousness felt a sharp pain and her small and delicate face began to turn pale . That pain made her not dare to utter any more words .
“Blood shadows… Killing me without even needing ten breaths? That old man is indeed shamelessly boastful . Die!”
The purple star in Ning Fan’s left eye sparkled . The enhancement of his sight had already enabled him to see through the key of the Blood Shadow Technique .
Drawing the great momentum, he took three consecutive steps forward . Afterwards, the great momentum turned into a sword which divided into innumerable sword light . Before the fifty blood shadows could get close to him, they were slashed horrendously by the swords . Other than the sound of swords slashing, there were only the cries of agony from the blood shadows . Within seconds, all of them were turned into blood mist once more .
But just as they were destroyed, the fifty blood mist fused together once more, transforming into five blood shadows of the Early Divine Transformation Realm .
General Xie wore a mocking smile on his face .
“Young man, your woman has already warned you to be careful of my Blood Shadow Technique . She told you not to kill any of them but you refused to listen . Now, you are going to bear the consequences for your stubbornness!”
Before General Xie finished his words, the smile on his face literally froze .
What he saw next was Ning Fan completing the remaining six steps in a row with smooth and rapid steps like flowing water .
Forming a sword with nine steps . With Ning Fan’s current cultivation level, he could even cut down any ordinary Divine Transformation Realm experts, let alone five mere illusory blood shadows!
At the moment the sword light emerged, the five Divine Transformation Realm blood shadows which had yet to fully congeal were reduced to blood mist again . However, this time they were unable to combine again as they were shredded to ashes by the sword light .
After having his blood shadows crushed, the elderly man suffered a heavy blow on his heart, causing him to lose his balance and nearly fell down from the chariot . His face was full of shock .
“Forming a sword with nine steps and kill Divine Transformation Realm experts with it?! You are just an Early Divine Transformation Realm cultivator; how come you would have such power… Wait . Your face!”
The elderly man who was named Xie Gu only realized now that Ning Fan’s appearance was exactly the same as the Early Divine Transformation Realm on the portrait! He was the person whom the four holy demons had repeatedly warned them to be aware of before they had embarked on the journey!
At first, he was unable to have a clear look on Ning Fan’s appearance because he was too far away from him . However, just as Ning Fan approached him now, not only was Xie Gu able to recognize him, but the Late Divine Transformation Realm expert who was sitting imposingly in the center of the troops had a change in his facial expression .
“Xie Gu, retreat now!”
Retreat now! Or else you will die!
However, wasn’t it a little too late for him to begin thinking about retreating?
In a flash, Ning Fan vanished in purple smoke and directly appeared on top of the silver chariot where the elderly man was standing in the next second . A sword light shone and he made a slash on the elderly man . Despite the three layers of star armors protecting his body, all of them were penetrated by that strike . When he made a wide swing with his sword, Xie Gu’s body was already split into two . Dispersing his human form, Xie Gu revealed his demon body which was six hundred zhang* (3 . 13m) big . However, that big body was now cut into two!
Ning Fan kept the demon pill which was spawn upon Xie Gu’s death . It was an excellent item for improving his cultivation level . Besides that, he also kept his corpses which would be a good ingredient for refining his weapons!
Standing on the silver chariot, Ning Fan indifferently said with a pair of merciless eyes, “Killing me within ten breaths? I don’t even need a single breath to finish you off!”
His words were like a sharp sword glowing in red that pierced through every single beast’s ears, making their eardrums painful .
Their pupils were dilated, filled with disbelief . They found it difficult to believe that General Xie Gu who had gained his fame in the Star Sea with his Blood Shadow Technique was killed by Ning Fan in just a blink of an eye!
What caused them to feel most unable to believe was that they would actually meet the ferocious man with whom the four holy demons had instructed them to be extra cautious of at 120 million li* (500m) away from the star island . He was the frightening Early Divine Transformation Realm expert who managed to get away from the Fourth Holy Demon – Kun Mon’s hands . Now, he had just killed a Divine Transformation Realm expert before their very eyes!
The atmosphere was silent . Other than the sound of the sea currents, there was only the sound of heavy breathing .
However, the silence was suddenly broken in the next moment . A violent and fearsome laugh which carried a Late Divine Transformation Realm aura reverberated through the atmosphere .
“So it’s you! You are the one that Lord Kun Mo has instructed us to kill! Very well . I am Qu Feng2, the Wild General of the vanguard of the Southern Star Sea . It’s a good chance for me to gain merit by killing you! My troops, get into formations and kill our enemy!”

Xie Gu (Chinese: 血枯 pinyin: xiě kū) Xie (血xiě) means blood Gu (枯 kū) means wither or wilt
Qu Feng (Chinese: 曲风 pinyin: qū fēng) Qu (曲 qū) means bent, or crooked . It also means a song . Feng (风fēng) means wind .
When the Late Divine Transformation Realm being, Qu Feng, gave a command, the one hundred thousand sea beasts immediately parted and lined up in a different formation and displayed their demon power, forming a grand formation light .
Thousands of rays of silver formation light shot out from the bodies of the one hundred thousand sea beasts, creating a massive light curtain shielding the entire demon troops in order to avoid Ning Fan from breaking into their formation and killing their generals using his Golden Flame Chariot which possess an incredible speed that even their Lord Kun Mo was dreadful of!
This military formation that the demon troops had displayed was a Human Formation . As its name implied, it was a grand formation established based on the unity of people .
Apparently, the demon troops had been trained regularly as the formation light they conjured was already at the Late Divine Transformation Realm . Not only was it able to defend any ordinary Mid Divine Transformation Realm cultivator’s attacks but it was also more than enough to launch an attack which has a destructive power comparable to that of a Mid Divine Transformation Realm attack using its formation light .
“Kun Mo? Human Formation!”
Ning Fan’s eyes glinted with a hint of surprise . In the past, he had the intention of training the Three Divine Armies of the Black Devil so that they could achieve the level of forming a Human Formation by themselves . However, due to different reasons, he had no other choice but to abandon that idea for the moment in the end .
If these one hundred thousand sea beasts were scattered and disorganized, it would not be strenuous for Ning Fan to wipe out all the Gold Core Realm and Nascent Soul Realm beings . Unfortunately, after these sea beasts arranged themselves orderly into a formation, their actions would all be synchronized . When one defends, all defends; when one attacks, all attacks . That formation seemed to merge the one hundred thousand sea beasts into one entity .
To destroy the armies, the formation must first be destroyed!
As Qu Feng waved the flag in his hand, the entire troop of demon armies initiated an attack at the same time . Under the effect of the formation light, the one hundred thousand scattered strikes and projectiles turned into one hundred thousand identical silver arrows .
The volley of arrows pierced through the sky, whistling towards Ning Fan . Each of the silver arrows was powerful enough to penetrate through a Peak Gold Core Realm cultivator’s defense . With one hundred thousand of them combined together, even an expert of Mid Divine Transformation Realm would find it difficult to withstand it .
“Incinerate!”
Ning Fan did not even cast a glance at the incoming barrage of arrows . He opened his mouth and blasted out a column of black flames . The flames had the shape of a lotus . As soon as it escaped from his mouth, it instantly spread and turned into a sea of black flames, encompassing the vicinity within one thousand li* (500m) . Just as the flames emerged, the sea boiled and steam began to rise above the surface of the sea . The volley of arrows could not penetrate through the wall of flames at all as all of them were burnt to nothingness when they came into contact with the flames!
The next moment, Ning Fan pointed his finger at the flames, splitting them into nearly 2000 black lotuses . He then commanded them to bombard the formation light of the demon troops at different positions . The directions from where the black lotus flames attacked were rather incomprehensible to the demon troops as they were not concentrated at a single point . However, to their horror, when the black lotus flames exploded, only then did they realize that the attacks were directed at the formation eyes of their formation light!
The next second, the formation light of the demon troops shattered! All one hundred thousand beasts suffered a backlash upon the destruction of their formation light . Moreover, under the effect of the lotus flames, seventy thousand Gold Core Realm beasts were directly burnt to ashes by the flames and the atmosphere was filled with screams and wails of pain!
After the breaking the formation and killing a large number of the demon troops, Ning Fan did not continue to pursue them . On the other hand, Ning Fan jumped down from the silver chariot and went back to Xi Ran’s side . His motive of guarding the little girl was obviously exposed .
The frontline troops suffered a seventy percent loss before they even had the chance to really engage Ning Fan! Upon witnessing that horrible loss, Qu Feng’s countenance changed!
Before he was permitted to lead the troops and embark on this journey to conquer the star island, the Third Holy Demon, Yuan Fang the Ape Demon had once reminded him that the mission of this vanguard was just to test the validity of the rumors about the occurrence that happened on the star island . If they encounter the old bear, they should avoid engaging him if possible . If they meet Ning Fan, they should flee if possible .
Qu Feng was respectful towards the old bear . As for Ning Fan, however, Qu Feng did not even put him in his eyes .
Before meeting Ning Fan, Qu Feng thought that even though Ning Fan managed to escape from Kun Mo, the latter was just relying on the speed of his Golden Flame Chariot . If he did not have the chariot, he would just be an Early Divine Transformation Realm cultivator who was as powerless as an ant . To Qu Feng, Ning Fan was just an insignificant being that was not even worth mentioning .
Thus, despite knowing full well that he was confronting Ning Fan, he was still daring enough to execute a kill order on him . Originally, from Qu Feng’s perspective, he thought that the Mid Grade Divine Transformation Realm formation established by his troops was enough to defend against Ning Fan from performing a sneak attack relying with his speed and an Early Divine Transformation Realm being like him would certainly be unable to withstand a combined attack from one hundred thousand beasts .
But now, Qu Feng realized that his judgement was completely wrong!
In just an instant, Ning Fan eliminated Xie Gu . With just a column of black flames, he incinerated the volley of silver arrows . At first glance, he recognized the 2000 formation eyes of their Mid Grade Divine Transformation Realm formation and broke it with just a single strike, wiping out seventy thousand members of his troop…
Qu Feng reckoned that if he were to be in Ning Fan’s place, facing a massive demon army which comprised of one hundred thousand troops by himself, he would definitely be unable to gain any upper hand especially when the enemies were in an organized formation with strict defense .
“I’ve underestimated you! Losing seventy thousand troops is a heavy crime! Unless I return with your head to offset my crime, I am going to receive a heavy punishment for this loss! You must die! Let’s all attack at once!”
This time, Qu Feng no longer dispatched any of the ordinary sea beasts . The military formation was broken and his army had lost seventy thousand members . The remaining thirty thousand sea beasts were mostly injured . None of them was fit for battle anymore .
Without the slightest intention of belittling his enemy, twelve silver chariots dashed out from the troop’s formation and twelve Divine Transformation Realm experts charged at Ning Fan at the same time, surrounding him . Their plan was simple: eliminate Ning Fan by outnumbering him!
The technique of forming a sword with nine steps struck fear into everyone’s heart while his black flames sent chills down everyone’s spines at the scene!
Qu Feng reckoned that if he were to engage Ning Fan by himself, he would not have the confidence of gaining a certain victory… The current him was no longer ignorant enough to disparage Ning Fan!
Meanwhile, Qu Feng and his comrades had already noticed that Ning Fan was protecting Xi Ran . As such, some of them had gradually turned their direction towards Xi Ran, trying to distract Ning Fan .
“All twelve Divine Transformation Realm cultivators attack at once… Kun Mo’s subordinates really like using a large force to defeat a small group and they love bullying girls too . However, do you really think you are the only group with many fighters?! Spiritual puppets, get in line!”
Ning Fan patted his storage pouch . With a wave of his sleeve, twelve spiritual puppets lined up before him .
The twelve of them consisted of ten black puppets, Stone Warrior and the black dragon!
Among the ten black puppets, five of them were at the Early Divine Transformation Realm, four of them were at the Mid Divine Transformation Realm and one of them was at the Late Divine Transformation Realm!
Of all the twelve refined corpses and spiritual puppets, only Stone Warrior had some spiritual intelligence . The current Stone Warrior’s combat power was already barely enough to compare with the rest of the group of puppets . However, he was the only puppet with a complete spiritual intelligence . As such, he was still quite useful, especially in moments like this!
“What’s this situation?”
As soon as Stone Warrior was summoned, he felt his scalp go numb . He knew that Ning Fan was a troublemaker but he did not expect Ning Fan to get himself into such terrible situation .
Somewhere far in the star sea, there were countless ferocious beasts laying low quietly, trying to conceal themselves .
As for the area he was in, twelve Divine Transformation Realm experts were charging at them, surrounding them . One of the twelve Divine Transformation Realm experts was even at the Late Divine Transformation Realm!
However, when Stone Warrior turned his head and glanced at the spiritual puppets standing alongside him, the feeling of shock within him intensified .
On my side, not only do I have a monstrous being like Ning Fan, but also a Late Divine Transformation Realm little loli who seems to be unable to get away for the moment . Aside from that, there are still ten puppets and a refined corpse!
All eleven of them have physical bodies which are not any weaker than mine . Besides, the Mid and Late Divine Transformation Realm puppets are far greater than me! Of course, when we really engage each other, I might be able to gain some advantages over the dumb puppets with my spiritual intelligence .
But what surprised Stone Warrior the most was undeniably the black dragon refined corpse .
A Half-Step Void Refinement Realm black dragon?!
Our enemies are strong but our side is much stronger!
Qu Feng and the remaining members of his team were already terrified before they had even finished lining up . The fear which rouse within their hearts was due to the emergence of the Half-Step Void Refinement Realm refined corpse!
“Half-Step…Void Refinement Realm! It’s bad! Run!”
If there was only Ning Fan at the scene, Qu Feng and his comrades would have been daring enough to battle against him even if he was a Peak Divine Transformation Realm being . However, a Half-Step Void Refinement Realm being was different from a Peak Divine Transformation Realm cultivator . Although the aforementioned was just half a step further from the Peak Divine Transformation Realm, that advancement contained an unimaginable difference that could not be perceived by ordinary Divine Transformation Realm experts! It was worlds apart!
The frontline troops were clearly defeated . However, this defeat was not embarrassing . Qu Feng must inform the four holy demons about it and tell them that the Early Divine Transformation Realm cultivator whom they were afraid of was indeed terrifying . That man possessed a large number of spiritual puppets and he even had a Half-Step Void Refinement Realm refined corpse!
That information would be enough to atone for his losses for this trip . But the prerequisite was whether he could get away alive!
“Is there anything I can do for you …” Stone Warrior awkwardly stared at Ning Fan . The current him no longer had the arrogance which he expressed when meeting Ning Fan for the first time .
At that time, Ning Fan was just a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator while Stone Warrior was a Divine Transformation Realm expert, a being who could shake the External Endless Sea by just stomping his feet . But now, be it the enemies or his allies, he was considered the weakest .
Calling me out at a time like this… Is it possible that he wants to… sacrifice me like cannon fodder?
Translated by Tommy, edited by Roel
Stone Warrior felt slightly disheartened . Indeed, if Ning Fan wills it, he would certainly be an expendable pawn in a group battle involving beings at these levels .
“I can’t take part myself for the moment . You have spiritual intelligence . Therefore, this black dragon and the ten spiritual puppets would all be under your control . I won’t ask you whether how you are going to manipulate them . I just want an outcome: Leave nothing alive within the vicinity of thirty thousand li (500m per li)!”
“Huh?!”
Stone Warrior was startled . Despite having only an insignificant amount of strength among all of Ning Fan’s fighters, the latter actually allowed him to be the leader to command all his refined corpse and puppets!
Did I hear it correctly?
Does he really have so much confidence in my capabilities?
“Why? You can’t do it?” Ning Fan frowned .
“No! I can!” Stone Warrior answered with a raised tone .
Even in the Lost World Palace located in the Northern Heaven, Stone Warrior was just a spiritual puppet of a rather ordinary grade in terms of his combat power . However, when he was created, he was born with higher spiritual intelligence than common puppets . Because of that and also his above-average quick-wittedness, he was assigned to become Bei Xiaoman’s natal spiritual puppet as her lifelong bodyguard .
Before Bei Xiaoman had left the Northern Heaven and came to the mortal world, he could only follow the commands from other high-levelled spiritual puppets during the world war . He had never once imagined that he would have the chance to lead a team of spiritual puppets which were at a far higher cultivation level than his to battle, like what he was entrusted to do just now .
Usually, spiritual puppets were unable to advance into the next level themselves . However, in the Northern Heaven, there was a type of secret technique called “Puppet Raising Technique” . It was a technique which was developed specially for improving the power of spiritual puppets . The main method of the technique for enhancing a puppet’s power was to let the puppet to devour the souls of others!
Spiritual puppets were born with no souls . As such, in order to improve, they had to first devour someone’s soul, congeal it and then turn themselves into something more human-like by modelling the soul . Only then would the puppets have the chance to increase their power .
Stone Warrior who was at the Early Divine Transformation Realm at the very least has to devour ten souls of beings who are at the Mid Divine Transformation Realm in order to achieve an evolution!
It would be an impossible task for him to do it by himself . Today, however, after being assigned with so many subordinates, swallowing the souls of the twelve Divine Transformation Realm experts became as easy as turning his palms!
Therefore, to him, it was a golden opportunity!
Stone Warrior was not concerned about life and death . Neither did he care about his power . However, someday in the future, he would have to return to Bei Xiaoman’s side and became her guardian again . Because of that reason, he would need to get stronger!
“I assure you that within the area of thirty thousand li (500m per li), nothing will remain alive!”
Stone Warrior solemnly cupped his fists and leaped onto the head of the black dragon . When he performed some kind of hand seals, the ten spiritual puppets including the black dragon instantly responded to his commands obediently, enabling him to manipulate the rest of the group like his own arms!
Ning Fan did not know about such profound secret technique of controlling puppets . If he were to be the one who commands them, the power of the team might not be greater than Stone Warrior .
With Stone Warrior’s guide and the might of the formidable Half-Step Void Refinement Realm black dragon, the group of incoming enemies were just like shrimps and crabs . None of them would be able to escape!
Twelve dark rays dashed towards the approaching enemies . In the next moment, the front line troops of the Southern Star Sea which were emanating majestic aura earlier instantly suffered a heavy blow . The atmosphere was filled with tormented cries and wails .
*Ahhhhhh*
Under Stone Warrior’s precise control, the black dragon continuously swallowed and spat black-colored dragon breaths . The thirty thousand remaining troops were wiped out within just a few breaths . The twelve Divine Transformation enemy generals were all neutralized except for Qu Feng! Each of their demon souls were swallowed by Stone Warrior into his abdomen . Three of them belonged to Early Divine Transformation Realm experts while the other eight of them were Mid Divine Transformation Realm beings!
Qu Feng was gasping for breath as he looked at the group of puppets which had heavily besieged him . Knowing that there was no chance for him to survive, his facial expression turned ferocious and glared at Ning Fan . Eventually, his gaze shifted to Xi Ran!
“I know I’m going to die . It’s not an embarrassment to die under a Half-Step Void Refinement Realm expert! However, I am reluctant to die in vain . Since I can’t kill you, I want your woman to die with me! Evil Cold Worm, appear!”
Qu Feng seemed to be holding something in his palm which he eventually crushed with his fingers . His movement was too fast . No one could see clearly what he had broken, except for Ning Fan who managed to catch sight of a deep purple silkworm-like creature that was nearly an inch long! Without a doubt, it was something venomous!
Just as the worm was freed, an immense sense of danger surged within Xi Ran’s heart .
Before she could even react, a deep purple thorn-like projectile suddenly appeared at one zhang (3 . 13m per zhang) away in front of Xi Ran . Turning into a ray of purple beam, it propelled straight at Xi Ran’s chest .
If it were to penetrate through Xi Ran’s chest, she would certainly be dead in her current condition!
“This woman is completely defenseless now . There’s no way she could defend herself . If it hits her chest, she would die for sure! Even she could slightly move, diverting the position where the thorn will hit, she could at most live for another three days . Its venom is incurable!”
Ning Fan knew Qu Feng was not lying . The reason was because even when he faced the venomous worm just now, he was unable to relax at all!
Xi Ran’s face was full of despair . As she was in the midst of using her secret technique to gather the Soul Refining Sand, she could not move her body even for an inch, let alone block that lethal strike .
She was a timid girl . She did not know what to do next . She felt extremely alone and helpless…
She was afraid to die . She had never experienced an incident where death was so certain and close to her before…
What should I do?! I can’t evade it!
Just as her shoulders began to tremble and tears began to well-up within her eyes, the shadow of a man clad in white robes flashed past and stood in front of her, blocking the incoming fatal strike .
Without having any time left to activate his magical treasures, he received the worm with his physical body .
“I’ve told you . I’ll make sure you are unharmed!”
With just a step, Ning Fan appeared in front of Xi Ran . That mere purple thorn actually broke through the terrifying defense of Ning Fan’s body which was at a similar level of a corpse devil with ease, piercing right into his chest . When it got into his body, it transformed into a trace of purple cold qi and began to wreck his body internally like a bat which had just come out of hell .
At the next moment, Ning Fan felt an excruciating pain from his chest . He felt an itch in his throat, causing him to cough out blood .
However, he stubbornly swallowed back that mouthful of blood and crazily activated his black flames to forcibly burn the worm to death from within!
“Finish him off!” Ning Fan’s ordered with a gloomy tone .
“Impossible! That purple worm hit you right in the chest! Why haven’t you died?!” Qu Feng’s eyes widened with shock .
If that worm hits a cultivator’s chest, that person will die instantly for sure, even if he is a Peak Divine Transformation Realm expert… Why is he still alive?!!
There was no answer to his question .
Stone Warrior commanded the black dragon to lift its dragon claw and tear Qu Feng to pieces .
At this moment, Xi Ran felt touched but bad at the same time while looking at Ning Fan who had a trace of black blood flowing down from the corner of his mouth .
Meanwhile, in a giant palace under the Southern Star Sea - the Li Kun Palace’s, Kun Mo and Yuan Fang who were in the midst of doing a massive preparation for war had a drastic change on their countenances .
Qu Feng’s life plate as well as the other twelve Wild Generals’ broke together!
Besides, the life plates of the Gold Core Realm and Nascent Soul Realm beasts who were quite famous in the military troops broke too!
Within just half a day, one hundred thousand life plates broke in succession!
“This should have been impossible to happen! I have personally given Qu Feng the Evil Cold Worm . Other than a Half-Step Void Refinement Realm expert, who else could kill him?! Moreover, the front line troops are impossible to fully obliterate! Who did this?!”
“Could it be that Early Divine Transformation Realm cultivator?” Yuan Fang suddenly stood up with his eyes wide .
“How is that even possible?! That man just has a magical treasure which enables to travel a little faster . Other than that, he’s just a piece of useless trash! He won’t have such capabilities!”
Kun Mo was unwilling to believe that Ning Fan would be capable of eliminating one hundred thousand troops of the vanguard by himself!
Suddenly, a message-transmitting flying sword flew into the palace . The intel it brought made Kun Mo no longer able to retain his composure .
Three days later, the Gui Xiong outpost of the Southern Star Sea was wiped out!
Ten days later, the Dragon Burying Ocean City was occupied!
Seventeen days later, the Southern Prison Country was annihilated by a single man!
A hostile malefic being emanating frightening killing intent was travelling straight at the Southern Star Sea!
From all the intel, the only detail about the person who annihilated the country and city was that he was an Early Divine Transformation Realm expert!
As for his target, it was obviously the Li Kun Palace of the Southern Star Sea!
There were not any clues about that person’s identity . The only detail about him was his cultivation level and the words he left in every battlefield which was piled up with innumerable corpses .
‘Lu Bei, the slayer from Luo Yun!”
“So that Early Divine Transformation Realm cultivator’s name is Lu Bei! Now, Big Brother and Second Elder Brother might not be in the Southern Star Sea, but if this Lu Bei dares to set his foot upon my Li Kun Palace, I will let him die without a place to bury his corpse!”
Kun Mo was enraged and he squeezed the flying sword to ashes .
That Lu Bei is obviously challenging my reputation! Because I didn’t go to the star island to kill him, that’s why he came to my territory and cause me troubles!
He’s just . . .
COURTING DEATH!
