Chapter 392
*Roar*
As the deafening roar of the beast reverberated throughout the area, the blood-red light became even more strange . Everything the red light touched was frozen into blood-red ice crystals .
Within the vicinity of ten thousand zhang* (3 . 33m per zhang), the woods, the ground and some innocent blood beasts turned into ice crystals .
Ning Fan and his group were also trapped within the ice which disabled their movements .
Even Half-Step Void Refinement Realm beings would find it difficult to escape if they are sealed within the ice crystal .
Ning Fan’s body then burned with black devil flames . This flame was the combination of twelve types of Heavenly Cold Qi and Earth Flames . The power of this devil flame would certainly rival a Seventh Grade Void Flames .
In a matter of seconds, all the ice crystals within the area melted under the heat of his black flames .
His three Void Refinement Realm spiritual puppets regained their mobility . Yu Chong’er also recovered her breathing . However, her jaws were trembling from the cold, making her teeth chatter . She snuggled more closely against Ning Fan’s chest . However, she still stubbornly insisted that she was not cold .
In Yu Chong’er’s consciousness, the ray of red light just now was too horrifying . Its ice power had probably reached the level of a Mortal Void Cold Qi .
However, a cold qi with such an extreme degree of coldness was directly melted away by Ning Fan’s devil flames . It was enough to prove how powerful his devil flame was .
Besides, when Ning Fan conjured his flames just now, he was unable to use its full power due to the lack of magic power . Otherwise, not a single Void Refinement Realm being would dare to withstand his flames head-on when he completely unleashes its power!
“Why is he so strong…? It’s just too unimaginable…”
Even if Yu Chong’er hated Ning Fan, she could not help but admit that his actual strength was unquestionably impressive .
The kind of strength he had was tempered and trained by going through countless life-threatening fights and events . Whenever he killed, his actions were as fast as lightning . Furthermore, he did not bat an eye when blood splattered everywhere . He would never stop until he or his enemies die .
Speaking from the bottom of her heart, it was difficult for Yu Chong’er not to have a sense of gratitude or acknowledgement towards Ning Fan when he had saved her from the brink of death .
At the very least, she knew how to cherish the kindness of others in her heart and repay them .
Thus, even though Ning Fan placed a palm on one of her breasts, she swallowed her embarrassment and tolerated it without resisting .
“We can’t run away anymore . ”
Ning Fan’s eyes turned cold . Even though he had managed to ward off the red light, the group of blood beasts caught up with them and surrounded them when they were trapped in the ice .
Ning Fan stared at the innumerable black figures of the beasts, feeling their qi which were so strong that it nearly broke the space they were occupying . Ning Fan did not explain much to Yu Chong’er and touched her directly using his Yin Plucking Finger, which made her unconscious . After keeping her into his Cauldron Ring, his eyes were brimming with battle intent . Evidently, he was going to have a bloody battle against this group of beasts .
It isn’t difficult to deal with the three Void Refinement Realm blood beasts since I can let my three puppets handle them for me .
As for the remaining Divine Transformation Realm beasts, I shall deal with them in my own way .
“Puppets, appear!”
He summoned his seven Divine Transformation Realm spiritual puppets and the black dragon refined corpse . He would need all the help he could get right now .
At the next moment, both forces charged towards each other as if they could read each other’s minds .
The beasts charged towards Ning Fan in a large herd which was just like a tidal wave . However, Ning Fan’s expression did not reveal the slightest hint of fear facing the incoming beasts .
“Soul Extraction! Inlaid Star Compass, appear!”
He stretched his five fingers wide and clawed at the earth . The soul of the vast land moved and was then drawn into his body which caused his magic power to increase .
He raised the Inlaid Star Compass into the air . It transformed into a massive star diagram which stretched into one hundred thousand li* (500m per li) long . He lit up half of the thirty thousand star lamps .
Within the area beneath the star diagram, the physical defense of all blood beasts had slightly weakened .
As for Ning Fan and his groups of fighters, their physical defense was increased to a terrifying level when the starlight shone upon them .
Under the blessing of the starlight of the Inlaid Star Compass, the defense of each of the spiritual puppets was strong enough to withstand a Half-Step Void Refinement Realm attack .
Moreover, the starlight also had the function of deflecting enemy attacks .
Ning Fan’s magic power had become stronger and stronger over time . It was his first time having enough power to use the Inlaid Star Compass in this manner .
Therefore, this situation proved that the Inlaid Star Compass was not only a supreme defensive treasure but also an extremely powerful supplementary magic treasure . It was a treasure that would be of great use in the future .
*Roar*
Roars of beasts filled the air . Some of them were filled with rage while some of them were cries of pain .
A few Half-Step Void Refinement Realm beasts then realized that the destructive power of their joint attack was only enough to injure a Late Divine Transformation Realm spiritual puppet instead of killing it in a single blow . It was just too ridiculous to them .
With the blessing of the starlight, this group of Divine Transformation Realm spiritual puppets are quite tough and are hard to destroy . This way, they can keep the blood beasts at bay for a while .
As for the three Void Refinement Realm spiritual puppets, all of them threw out a fist at the same time when Ning Fan commanded them to do so and blasted away the respective Void Refinement Realm beasts they were dealing with . Then, they immediately stood together shoulder to shoulder .
At this moment, the situation of this battle was on equal grounds despite the fact that they were outnumbered!
As Ning Fan joined the battle, his side began to dominate over the entire situation .
While facing nine Wild Beasts on his own, he still had the energy to use his sword sense .
His physical body was on a completely different level compared to them . Each of his fists could break mountains and rivers . After just exchanging a few blows, four of the nine Wild Beasts died in his hands . He also received quite a lot of physical attacks but he gradually recovered in between the dispersals and recondensation of his incarnation .
Meanwhile, there were five black stars hanging in the sky above his head . When the black starlight that the black stars emanated enveloped him, his body healed at a greater speed than the use of his incarnation!
The injuries which were caused by mere Wild Beasts were healed in a matter of breaths .
Ning Fan did not have a million natal stars . He would not be able to stay alive while being simultaneously attacked by several Immortal Emperors like the Celestial Emperor .
However, with the five natal black stars he had right now, it was enough for him to be invincible even though he was surrounded by Wild Beasts!
The look on his face became even colder and fiercer . When he dispersed into a black cloud using his Black Tempest Rupture Art, the remaining five Wild Beasts died miserably .
At the same time, a Late Divine Transformation Realm spiritual puppet of his was blown to pieces by the group of beasts . Ning Fan did not have time to feel heartache for his spiritual puppet . Instead, he carried a more ferocious killing intent and charged towards the twelve Wild Beasts which had laid siege to the spiritual puppet just now .
*Bang*
Fearlessly, he engaged them with his fists and legs .
As he hurled a single punch, a Late Divine Transformation Realm Wild Beast perished upon impact .
As he stomped his foot, a Peak Divine Transformation Realm Wild Beast was pulverized to pieces .
Ning Fan eliminated eight of the twelve Wild Beasts in an instant and only four Half-Step Void Refinement Realm Wild Beasts remained . Unwaveringly, he engaged the four of them all at once .
As a matter of fact, the physical bodies of Half-Step Void Refinement Realm Wild Beasts were already impressive in the first place . Now, however, they were attacking Ning Fan as a group . Even with the current strength of his physical body, his situation was slowly becoming disadvantageous .
After that, a flash of purple intent flashed within his eyes and a gust of purple smoke suddenly scattered and blew across the battlefield . Within the purple smoke, the four Half-Step Void Refinement Realm beasts were literally reduced to dust and disappeared .
In addition to that, hundreds of Nascent Soul Realm beasts and a dozen Wild Beasts nearby were disintegrated by the purple smoke as well .
Ning Fan breathed hard for a bit . It was his first time experiencing a shortage of magic power .
Each of the trump cards he had would deplete his magic power . If his magic power is completely exhausted, he would then be unable to display any of his powerful magic techniques even if he had a variety of them .
The current situation did not allow him to be concerned about the pain and his swelling immortal veins . He patted his storage pouch and took out a bottle of Fifth Revolution pills . They were Spirit Recovering Pills . Without any hesitation, he swallowed all of them .
A tremendous amount of medicinal power nearly caused his immortal veins to explode . It was just too much for him to consume . However, Ning Fan did not have the patience to slowly and meticulously absorb the medicinal power . Instead, he directly digested the pills and crudely squeezed out their magic power . Then, he resumed fighting in the battlefield once more .
The cost of forcibly consuming the pills was to inflict some damage to his internal organs which caused blood to flow out from the corners of his mouth .
However, since he had the incarnation that had self-recovery and the Black Star Technique, he was not afraid of getting hurt .
When he saw that another Late Divine Transformation Realm spiritual puppet of his was about to be destroyed, he stepped forward and dashed towards the beasts . He unleashed the last bit of his killing intent . The group of beasts instinctively retreated in a hurry . All of them were shocked .
“Die!”
This time, he activated his Heart Formation . Five thousand tall and straight sword mountains rose from the ground .
Nearly at the same time, around twenty Wild Beasts became trapped within the formation of the sword mountains . Every one of them was at a loss .
They did not notice Ning Fan holding a formation compass at all . Neither did they see him establishing a great formation in this area . How come a gigantic formation like this appeared out of nowhere?!
Unfortunately, they would never have the chance to understand it . It was the Heart Formation Technique of the He Luo Style of the Dao of Formations . When one has the formation diagram within his heart, why would he need to establish the formation using external items?!

*Shua*
Five thousand traces of Peak Nascent Soul Realm sword light flew across the air, shredding everything within the sword formation .
Within the Eastern Profound Sword Formation, each of the Wild Beasts died horribly when countless swords literally shredded them to pieces .
Meanwhile, Ning Fan’s magic power was being consumed quickly like water gushing from the top of the waterfall . He took a few more Spirit Recovering Pills, flinging caution to the wind . Just then, intense black flames rose above the center of his palm which expanded into a sea of flames .
It was the Samadhi Fire Palm . As he directed his palm at the Wild Beasts, each of them got incinerated into ashes . Not a single beast was able to escape alive .
The herd of blood beasts gradually diminished and the number of Wild Beasts was dropping . Because of Ning Fan’s viciousness and formidable strength, even the Wild Beasts from afar did not dare to come to their own kind’s rescue .
There are only fifty Wild Beasts left…
Forty… Thirty…Twenty…
The state of Ning Fan’s injuries became more severe as he continued to battle . Nearly all of his Divine Transformation Realm spiritual puppets had suffered heavy damage . It would be difficult to use them in the future unless they get repaired .
On his side, there was only him and his three Void Refinement Realm spiritual puppets that still had the strength to fight .
Opposite them, there were still three Void Refinement Realm beasts and twenty Divine Transformation Realm blood beasts . All of them were shocked to stand above the corpses of their kind in the middle of the sea of blood .
Ning Fan’s hands had taken the lives of another one hundred and twenty Wild Beasts . However, he suffered grave injuries as the price . He was covered with blood from head to toe .
Most of the blood on him came from the blood beasts he killed while a small fraction of it was his own blood that flowed out from his wounds .
His immortal veins were already on the brink of bursting after he pushed himself to his limits by haphazardly consuming pills several times . Now, his body could no longer take the medicinal power of any pill .
His magic power was severely depleted . It was difficult for him to continue the battle .
In a way, Ning Fan was like an arrow at the end of its flight after fighting up until this point despite his formidable strength .
However, the lesser magic power he had, the clearer the sword intent within his mind .
Traces of sword intent coiled around his palm . Killing someone with his sword intent would not use any magic power at all .
When he merged his sword intent with his heart, he heard the calling of his flying sword for the first time .
His Separation Slayer Sword which was revolving around him showed excitement . It seemed like it craved battle .
Meanwhile, the Blood Dragon Demon Sword within his storage pouch was longing for blood . It wanted to devour all the blood of the blood beasts .
“Blood Dragon Demon Sword…”
Ning Fan patted his pouch and took out a blood-red demon sword which was as clear as crystal .
Right after he took out that sword, he infused all the baleful qi he accumulated after killing more than one thousand Divine Transformation Realm beings into the sword from its tip .
The Blood Dragon Demon Sword glowed and gave out an extraordinary red light which looked eerie and evil . Besides, it even gave off a faint dragon’s cry .
*Roar*
A strange and inexplicable scene occurred!
Just as the Blood Dragon Demon Sword began to glow red, all the blood beasts including the three Void Refinement Realm beasts revealed looks of absolute fear . Each and every one of them let out frightened roars .
They were blood beasts which were food or nourishment for the Blood Dragon Race .
It was similar to what happened in the Black Dragon Pond . Every one of the dark beasts lurking around the pond was food for the black dragons!
As soon as Ning Fan noticed the terrified expressions of the blood beasts in front of him, he immediately figured out that this Blood Dragon Demon Sword was something that had an extremely strong restraining effect on the blood beasts .
He raised his heels and disappeared into whiffs of smoke . At the next moment, he strangely emerged above the back of a Peak Divine Transformation Realm blood beast and thrusted his sword into its skin .
To a blood beast which had a body that was a few thousand zhang* (3 . 33m per zhang) large, having their back pierced by a sword which was only three chi* (30 . 7 cm per chi) long was equivalent to being stung by a mosquito . It should not have been painful or itchy .
However, when the Blood Dragon Demon Blood cut through its skin and penetrated into its back, a massive suction force activated itself within the sword . In the next moment, the beast collapsed to the ground . Within seconds, the sword had completely sucked the blood of the gigantic Peak Divine Transformation Realm blood beast dry, turning it into a dry corpse!
“This sword is a bloodthirsty sword that thirsts for blood . But I’m afraid its terrifying bloodsucking ability only works with blood beasts . ”
Ning Fan’s mind became more determined and confident .
With this blood sword, the remaining nineteen Wild Beasts won’t be a trouble at all .
He raised the blood sword into the air and wielded it using flying sword techniques .
Since the blood sword was originally a Void Treasure, penetrating the hard hide of the blood beasts was the same as slicing a cake .
Even though the sword’s destructive power was not strong, once it pierced into the body of a Divine Transformation Realm blood beast, it could instantly suck the blood of the beast until the very last drop!
Within ten plus breaths, all the remaining Wild Beasts were killed with the help of the bloodsucking sword!
*Roar*
Compared to the Wild Beasts, the three Void Refinement Realm blood beasts had higher spiritual intelligence . The three of them exchanged glances with each other . After seeing the annihilation of the Wild Beasts, they now had the intention of running away .
They were also blood beasts . As long as the blood sword pierces into their bodies, all of their blood would be instantly sucked dry by the sword .
The blood sword carried the might of an immortal blood dragon . Blood dragons of this level could even suck the blood of a Life Immortal Realm blood beast dry in an instant, much less Void Refinement Realm blood beasts!
If these three Void Refinement Realm blood beasts faced this blood sword right at the beginning of the fight, they might not necessarily be afraid of it because it would do them no harm as long as they avoid being pierced .
However, after a lengthy and arduous fight against Void Refinement Realm spiritual puppets, they were already heavily wounded with blood oozing out from their wounds in streams . As long as Ning Fan lunged the blood sword into their wounds right now, they would certainly die!
“Are you planning to flee? It’s too late!”
Ning Fan smiled maliciously . He turned into a trace of smoke with just a single step and landed on the back of one of the Void Refinement Realm beasts . Looking at the dense and numerous wounds on its body, he lifted his sword and stabbed it into its back, disregarding the pleading eyes on the beast’s face .
*Shua*
The tip of the sword penetrated through the beast’s hide followed by its blood-red sword body . While the Void Refinement Realm blood beast screamed painfully, its skin shriveled and its body dried up incredibly fast .
One breath later, its blood qi became dull .
Two breaths later, its body was only left with shriveled skin and bones .
Three breaths later, it breathed its last and collapsed to the ground .
Ning Fan’s eyes flashed with excitement . Even though he did it using the might of the blood sword, it was still his first time killing a Void Refinement Realm creature on his own .
His footsteps became a little unsteady . The blood sword which had devoured the blood of countless beasts seemed to have grown bolder as it was trying to devour Ning Fan as well .
Ning Fan’s eyes turned gloomy .
This sword is rather difficult to control .
As he staggered to regain his balance, he made another step and teleported to the back of another Void Refinement Realm beast . With a single stab, it died within three breaths as well!
*Roooar*
The last surviving Void Refinement Realm blood beast was extremely terrified .
As a blood beast, it had no strength to retaliate at all when faced with the Blood Dragon Demon Sword!
He withstood the blows from the spiritual puppets and turned around to flee with all its might . When Ning Fan tried to fly and pursue the beast, he helplessly realized that the current him no longer had a single trace of magic power . Thus, he was already unable to catch up with it .
“Finish it . ”
He gave a command to his Void Refinement Realm puppets . After that, he stabbed the sword to the ground to maintain his balance as he was a little unsteady to stand on his own feet right now .
It was his second time experiencing such a bitter battle .
As the level and strength of his enemy increased, the more difficult the battles became . Currently, it was very difficult for him to kill in an overbearing way like before .
In the dense forest far away, a painful cry of a beast was heard . It belonged to the Void Refinement Realm blood beast from before . Without a doubt, the only outcome for it was death when it was attacked by three Void Refinement Realm puppets at once .
Ning Fan flicked his sleeve and kept all of the dragon blood on the ground . To his surprise, he discovered that the blood veins of the blood beasts that he killed using the blood sword were completely dry . None of them left any dragon blood .
In this battle, there were 120 Wild Beasts in total that had died in Ning Fan’s hands . He collected nearly 1500 drops of dragon blood which filled up fifteen bottles .
After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn passed, his three spiritual puppets with blank expressions returned with an enormous corpse of the beast . Unbelievably, there were actually one thousand drops of dragon blood within a Void Refinement Realm beast! It was one hundred times that of a Divine Transformation Realm beast!
Ning Fan could not help but feel slightly terrible . If he didn’t use the blood sword to kill the other two Void Refinement Realm blood beasts which sucked their blood dry, he could have gotten another two thousand drops of dragon blood .
However, he just thought about it for a bit and discarded that thought immediately . Given the circumstances, he completely had no time to worry about the dragon blood as it was a life and death situation .
