Chapter 431: Slaughter the Tower (7)

Translator: GE_Team  Editor: GE_Team

The desolate dragon marshland which was a million li* (500m per li) away from Ying Long’s lightning palace had been turned into a sea of blood.

Lei Shiyi led the cultivators of his Myriad Treasure Pavilion and the 200 illusory spiritual puppets forward while at the same time bathing themselves in blood from all the killing.

Ning Fan held the Separation Slayer Sword in his hand. As he travelled across the pool of blood, he would swing his sword to kill an enemy whenever they were within his sight. Nobody could ward off the destructive power of a single slash from him.

In just a short two hours, countless forces on the twenty-fourth floor which were affiliated to King Ying Long were wiped out by Ning Fan like sweeping the fallen leaves in autumn!

Originally, he did not want to cause too much trouble. However, whenever troubles come to find him, he would never back off from them.

Since Ying Long tried to hunt him down, he naturally had to pay the price for passing down that command.

“Zhou Ming, how dare you?!”

More than twenty roars of rage came from afar. The cluster of travelling lights which were approaching him had massive aura forces which could make heaven and earth tremble. Without a doubt, they were Void Refinement Realm old monsters.

Ning Fan’s eyes turned grim.

I hadn’t expected that King Ying Long would have quite a lot of strong subordinates.

The 19 Void Glimpse Stage experts and 3 Void Inquiry Stage experts were all his subordinates!

Besides, among the 3 Void Inquiry Stage experts aside from the one who was as strong as Lei Shiyi, the strength of the other two was far greater Lei Shiyi’s.

“How dare this brat offend King Ying Long? We should quickly subdue him!”

A Void Glimpse Stage expert rudely said. He took the lead and directly dashed towards Ning Fan.

His speed was too fast and was nearly at the level of the Void Inquiry Stage. Thinking of his terrifying speed, he did not place Ning Fan in his eyes. In fact, he was ready to eliminate Ning Fan with a single move.

However, he had underestimated Ning Fan and unknowingly entered his formation diagram.

Ning Fan’s eyes flashed with lightning. He had already noticed that this person wanted to sneak-attack him and even his attack was also filled with killing intent.

But when this person got within ten thousand zhang* (3.33m per zhang) from him, Ning Fan immediately flipped his hand and shook it. All of a sudden, lightning rays filled the entire sky and condensed into a scroll painting. As Ning Fan flung his hand, the scroll painting rolled open and a lightning painting of mountains and rivers extended as far as ten thousand li* (500m per li).

The runes of the lightning painting and the landscape that was dyed red with blood manifested in the portrait.

The sun, moon, stars and the great momentum of the heavens seemed to be in tune with the lightning painting.

In the past, the lightning painting only had ancient and abstruse runes. However, after Ning Fan used the lightning painting to kill Void Refinement Realm experts several times and devoured ten lightning dragons and countless primordial lightning along the way, the grade of the lightning painting had greatly increased.

The landscape that was dyed red with blood in the painting also gradually became clearer, clearly revealing the exterior and interior of the mountains and rivers. The destructive power of the lightning painting also rose sharply. Even if Ning Fan cannot injure Void Glimpse Stage lightning cultivators, he could still directly subdue them and eliminate them within the lightning painting. With this technique, he could be said to be invincible among lightning cultivators at the same level as him!

This divine ability of turning lightning into a painting with a flip of his hand was beyond the expectations of many of them, especially the Void Glimpse Stage expert who wanted to catch him by surprise. Chills ran down his spine. As he realized the situation had started to go wrong, he turned and went back to his group without any hesitation. However, it was already too late for him.

“Keep!”

Without showing any mercy, Ning Fan shook the lightning painting and kept the Void Glimpse Stage expert and the mountains and rivers within the vicinity of ten thousand li* (500m per li) into the lightning painting.

With a single move, everything within that area turned into ashes which flew with the air. After letting out a miserable cry, that Void Glimpse Stage expert also turned into ashes and died. He did not have the chance to escape at all.

“This lightning painting is really frightening! Is it the Tai Su Lightning Diagram from the rumors?!”

“Rumor has it that after the passing of Lightning Emperor Tai Su, no one had been able to comprehend this technique. This young man’s innate talent is extremely heaven-defying to have successfully learned it!”

“This person is definitely not someone we can match. King Long must personally act in order to subdue him!”

Fear rose within the hearts of each of the Void Glimpse Stage old monsters who were originally arrogant. None of them dared to charge forward and attack Ning Fan.

Only the three Void Inquiry Stage experts let out cold snorts, unaffected by what had happened in front of their very eyes.

“This lightning painting might be strong, but this young man is clearly not skilled enough to use it effectively. He can only kill Void Glimpse Stage lightning cultivators. As for Void Inquiry Stage experts like us, he won’t be able to subdue us! Qi Ji, you will deal with Lei Shiyi! Dao Li, you will cooperate with me in killing this young man. Don’t give him the chance to kill another Void Glimpse Stage expert!”

The Void Inquiry Stage expert who gave the commands was the strongest expert among the three. His name was Cheng Huang.

Of the three Void Inquiry Stage experts, Cheng Huang was the one with the greatest strength. Dao Li was next after him, while Qi Ji was the weakest.

His decision of letting Qi Ji handle Lei Shiyi while personally handling Ning Fan with another expert was enough to show how formidable Ning Fan was to him.

He was aware of the destructive power of the Tai Su Lightning Diagram. With that diagram around, Ning Fan could completely depend on that magical painting to kill ordinary lightning-elemental undead spirits instantly and none of them would be able to resist.

In the past, he would never believe that Ning Fan was capable of putting up a fight against Void Inquiry Stage experts. Today, however, he was convinced!

As for the remaining eighteen Void Glimpse Stage experts, after knowing that they do not need to face against Ning Fan, all of them heaved sighs of relief and went to battle against the group of cultivators from the Myriad Treasure Pavilion.

Qi Ji blocked Lei Shiyi, preventing him from assisting Ning Fan.

Even though Ning Fan faced the two Void Inquiry Stage experts all by himself, he showed no signs of fear. Without giving Ning Fan time to think, Cheng Huang and Dao Li directly delivered their most powerful attacks. Each of them took out their Mid Grade Mortal Void Realm magic treasures.

“Profound Void Thunder Sword!”

“Clear Purple Lightning Frost!”

The magic treasures that the two of them took out were precious and supreme items. Even though they were only Immemorial Divine Weapons, they were rare supreme treasures among all magic treasures of the same grade.

These supreme treasures were enough to make them nearly peerless amongVoid Inquiry Stage experts. Unless they face experts like Ying Long or Tai Yue, they would never be defeated.

Two traces of dazzling sword light which seemed to be cutting through the galaxy was about to shred Ning Fan into thousands of pieces.

There was no way Ning Fan could evade. However, he also did not want to evade. He took a step forward instead. Suddenly, a set of golden armor appeared on top of his white robes.

“So what if you have Mid Grade Mortal Void Realm magic treasures?!”

*Bang* *Bang* *Bang*

Two magic treasures which carried force that could overturn mountains and oceans landed on Ning Fan’s body and emitted an earth-shattering bang. Each and every one of the experts from the lightning palace was deeply shocked by that sound which was as if doomsday had arrived.

Mountains crumbled and rivers split. The great earth cracked and lava rose from below.

On the vast empty land, pieces of the great land turned into ruins.

However, no matter what changes happened to heaven and earth, Ning Fan was still standing arrogantly and remained unscathed. The golden armor he was wearing had endured thousands of attacks from the two treasures but there was not a single scratch on him.

“*Hiss* What kind of secret technique is that armor? Its defense is actually so heaven-defying?!”

“This is bad! He is going to strike back!”

Standing amidst the wind and thunder, Ning Fan’s black hair danced wildly in the air while his eyes remained calm and composed from the beginning.

He then pointed a finger at the sky. All of a sudden, ninety-nine black stars emerged and black starlight which was like thin chiffon shone upon the ground. When the black starlight fell on the golden armor on Ning Fan’s white robes, it glittered brilliantly which added to his presence.

He extended his five fingers and clawed at the air. The starlight then condensed into a black bow. The bow which was decorated with ninety-nine traces of devil marks gave off immense devil qi.

The aura he gave off while holding the bow was completely different from that of the great elder of the Six-Winged Clan when the latter used the same technique.

At this exact moment, he resembled Great Emperor Mo Luo from the way he held the bow.

Besides, with the number of natal black stars he had condensed, the current Ning Fan was definitely several times stronger than Mo Luo if the latter was at the same level as him!

The lightning painting dispersed and returned to Ning Fan’s feet. It then formed into a diagram which spread and covered a vicinity of one hundred thousand li* (500m per li).

With Ning Fan’s current reserve of magic power, he was only capable of firing a single arrow. However, the lightning diagram still had another magical effect and that was to store magic power of the lightning cultivators it devours and allow the user of the lightning diagram to use it.

Inside that lightning diagram, there was the massive magic power of ten Void Inquiry Stage lightning dragons.

With the lightning diagram, Ning Fan did not need to worry about having insufficient magic power before fully using up the magic power of the lightning dragons he had devoured.

The reason why Ning Fan had not used the magic power stored in the lightning diagram was because he was saving it for the final battle against King Ying Long!

“Die!”

Ning Fan’s tone was as cold as ice from the deepest part of the glaciers. At the same time, the arrow he fired seemed to have pierced through heaven and earth.

The arrow was burning with star flames with its shadow tearing the skies apart. The expressions of Cheng Huang and Dao Li, both of whom had been targeted by Ning Fan with his arrow, changed greatly.

“Carefully defend against it. The destructive power of this arrow is extremely great! If we become careless, we will be grievously injured by it!”

The two of them raised their magic treasures and hurled them at the incoming arrow.

The two Mid Grade Mortal Void magic treasures which had the power to destroy heaven and earth were knocked away by the arrow.

*Bang*

The gigantic force of the collision filled the two magic treasures with countless cracks. Their spiritual power was also greatly reduced.

Both Cheng Huang and Dao Li felt their scalp go numb. They were not body cultivators. If this arrow hits them, they would certainly be severely injured.

“What arrow technique is this? Why is it so powerful?!”

“Even Mid Grade Mortal Void Realm magic treasures cannot stop it. Who can withstand this arrow other than those who have attained the Second Level of the Golden Body Realm?!”

“However, displaying such a powerful technique will certainly exhaust a lot of magic power. Even though he has destroyed our magic treasures, his magic power will be used up at the beginning of battle. He is truly foolish!”

When the two of them thought that Ning Fan had used up his magic power after displaying this technique, the fear and alertness in their hearts vanished. A cold smirk formed on their faces instead. They then made a series of hand seals to perform lightning techniques and went closer to Ning Fan to kill him.

However, when they were halfway there, both of them were startled. They saw that Ning Fan was looking at them with contempt.

Ning Fan drew the bowstring once more and a trace of an arrow shadow which could destroy heaven and earth shot out from the bow. Its sharp shrill nearly broke their eardrums and Sea of Consciousness.

*Chi*

A single arrow whistled towards them, carrying with it an irresistible force. It filled the two of them with fear.

They could not understand why Ning Fan who was just at the Half-Step Void Refinement Realm with limited magic power could still fire a second arrow in such a short period of time.

Even with the magic power they have, they could at most fire two or three arrows. The destructive power of this magic technique was too strong and would naturally require an excessive amount of magic power.

Could it be that Ning Fan’s magic power was already comparable to that of a Void Inquiry Stage expert? But how is that possible?!

Both of them could not figure it out. There was also no one who could clear their doubts.

Their magic treasures had already been destroyed. They could not be used anymore. They could only summon their armor to forcefully block that arrow light.

Unfortunately, their armor was not like Ning Fan’s lightning armor. Their defense was sorely lacking. As soon as the arrow hit them, it directly went past their armor and the remaining shadow of the arrow landed on their physical bodies, leaving injuries behind.

*Cough* *Cough* *Cough*

Cheng Huang and Dao Li coughed out a few mouthfuls of fresh blood. Fortunately, with the help of their armor, their injuries were not that serious.

Their expressions turned grim. Despite being dignified Void Inquiry Stage old monsters, they had been humiliated by Ning Fan’s two arrows, making them lose their face. If they could not make Ning Fan pay, how could they quell their anger?

Inwardly, they thought that even though Ning Fan’s magic power might be at the level of a Void Inquiry Stage expert, he would not be able to fire the third arrow as his magic power was certainly depleted after firing the second arrow.

However, both of them were wrong once again. This time, before they could make a move to attack Ning Fan, he drew the bow again and shot out the third, fourth and fifth arrows!

“Oh my god! This Zhou Ming can actually fire three arrows in a row while using such a terrifying arrow technique?!” Voices filled with surprise and admiration echoed in the air.

The magic power within Ning Fan’s body was quickly depleting but the lightning power in the lightning diagram rapidly replenished his magic power.

For offense, the Tai Su Lightning Diagram could be used to subdue lightning cultivators at the same level as its user and kill them. For defense, it could be used to defend against lightning techniques at the same level of the user. At the same time, it could also be used as a magic power vessel which could store lightning power. It was really a profound secret technique.

It was no surprise that this technique became one of the strongest divine abilities the Lightning Emperor Tai Su had. It really deserved its reputation.

The lightning diagram had stored all the magic power of the ten Void Inquiry Stage lightning dragons. After firing five arrows, Ning Fan was still capable of shooting at least 25 more arrows!

The three arrows shot out of the bow like a chain of pearls. They gave Cheng Huang and Dao Li an extremely great sense of danger.

They could not survive them. Their only option was to quickly escape!

The two of them no longer had the courage to go against Ning Fan. They really had no idea how many arrows more he could still fire.

If Ning Fan fires five or seven arrows in a row, their lives would probably be threatened!

However, even though their movement speed was fast, how could they be faster than star arrows?

Arrow techniques or arrow divine abilities usually only have a single chance to hit the opponent. If the arrow misses, the user of the technique would fail to kill his opponent.

Even though his arrow techniques had such a huge drawback, its destructive power was still much stronger than some magic techniques and divine abilities. Not only does it have a large attack range, its speed was also extremely fast. Its destructive power was even more impressive.

Three traces of arrow shadows travelled at a speed comparable to a Void Inquiry Stage expert. Two of the arrows went for Cheng Huang while the other one tailed after Dao Li.

*Chi* *Chi* *Chi*

They all heard the sound of three star arrows piercing through bodies. Undeniably, both Cheng Huang and Dao Li had been hit. They fell from the vast sky like wild geese that had been shot by a hunter and heavily crashed onto the ground. Star devil flames began to burn from within their bodies, engulfing their primordial spirits. Both of them were in so much pain that they wished they were dead.

Compared to Cheng Huang, Dao Li’s condition was slightly better. Even though he was injured, he still managed to stand on his feet. He forcibly extinguished the star devil flames on his body and looked at Ning Fan. His eyes were filled with absolute terror.

Cheng Huang was worse. His entire body was consumed by the devil flames. With his thin and weak magic power, it was difficult for him to extinguish the flames. He only managed to suppress the devil flames after losing one of his arms. The injuries he suffered were certainly not light. His qi became feeble and his cultivation base almost regressed from the Void Inquiry Stage.

“I still have 25 arrows…”

Ning Fan’s indifferent voice was like a sudden thunderstrike which sent chills across their scalps.

Ning Fan could still use such a powerful arrow technique 25 times. They were not capable of withstanding that. If they were to forcibly withstand it, they would certainly be killed!

They were terrified. They fled to other parts of the battlefield and did not dare to directly face Ning Fan anymore. They could only wait for King Ying Long to arrive and deal with him.

After the two of them ran away, there was no one stopping Ning Fan anymore. It was as if he had entered no man’s land.

He did not pursue the two experts. After all, they were still Void Inquiry Stage old monsters. Even if Ning Fan shoots out all of his star arrows and exhausts all of his magic power, he might not necessarily be able to eliminate them.

Since he was not sure he could kill them, it was wiser to get rid of some old monsters who were within his capabilities to kill. While King Ying Long was not here, he should kill as many Void Glimpse Stage experts of the lightning palace as possible.

He drew the bow and aimed directly at a Void Glimpse Stage expert. Then, he fired an arrow.

A starlight arrow shadow whistled towards his target with a strong and vigorous momentum, just like a mountain that was about to fall upon him. No one could block this arrow.

As the Void Glimpse Stage expert was caught unprepared, the arrow that Ning Fan fired stealthily killed that expert. Star flames engulfed his body, turning him into ashes instantly.

Another Void Glimpse Stage expert died. This time, everyone’s eyes fell on Ning Fan.

Only now did everyone notice that Ning Fan had gained the upper hand during his fight with the two Void Inquiry Stage experts and even made them retreat. Currently, he had spare hands to draw his bow and kill other Void Glimpse Stage experts!

As Ning Fan’s killing intent rose, the remaining 17 Void Glimpse Stage experts were overwhelmed with a massive sense of danger.

“This is bad! Someone, stop him!”

Each of the Void Glimpse Stage old monsters was aware of how powerful Ning Fan’s arrow technique was. How could they have the courage to resist him?

They summoned groups upon groups of Nascent Soul Realm and Divine Transformation Realm undead spirits. However, even though tens of thousands of undead spirits gathered, they still could not withstand the destructive power of a single arrow from Ning Fan.

When he fired a single arrow, hundreds of thousands of Nascent Soul Realm undead spirits were killed. Blood flowed like a river. Countless Divine Transformation Realm undead spirits perished. The great earth seemed to have returned to ancient times where sparks of flames covered it where not even a single blade of grass grew.

As Ning Fan walked amidst the great marshland of flames, he would kill a Void Glimpse Stage old monster every time he fired an arrow.

The destructive power of that Star Punishing Bow was too domineering. Moreover, with the steady supply of magic power from the lightning diagram, the current Ning Fan had nearly reached a level where he was invincible among Void Glimpse Stage experts.

No one below the Void Inquiry Stage could withstand a single arrow from him.

*Chi* *Chi* *Chi*

In just the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Ning Fan had shot out twenty arrows and killed all eighteen Void Glimpse Stage experts. A majority of the Nascent Soul Realm and Divine Transformation Realm undead spirits also perished. There were only less than ten thousand enemies left.

Ning Fan had saved the strongest effect of the lightning diagram for this battle. He went into killing mode and was like a devil lord who was invincible and unmatched.

Qi Ji had already been severely injured by Lei Shiyi and the others. The condition of Cheng Huang and Dao Li were also worsening under the attacks of a group of experts.

Ning Fan still had five arrows. He bent the bow into the shape of the full moon. Then, five traces of star arrows shot out from the bow like a chain of beads. It was the secret arrow technique of continuous arrow shots he inherited from Great Emperor Ancient Chaos.

Upon seeing the five arrows combine into one, Cheng Huang was scared half to death. His current injuries were too severe. His magic power was also nearly depleted. He did not have the strength to withstand the star arrows at all.

He wanted to flee. However, before he could move, five arrows pierced through his chest. His whole body then blazed with raging devil flames. After letting out a miserable scream, he eventually died.

“This Zhou Ming can even kill a Void Inquiry Stage old monster! He definitely has the strength to rival King Ying Long!”

Hints of amazement and fearful voices filled the air, diminishing the morale of the members from the lightning palace.

Lei Shiyi and cultivators from the Myriad Treasure Pavilion were already used to Ning Fan’s excessive killing. On his own, he shot and killed eighteen Void Glimpse Stage experts, engulfed a Void Glimpse Stage expert with his lightning diagram, and landed the final blow on a Void Inquiry Stage expert with his arrows. His accomplishment today was enough to shake the members of the first one hundred floors in this lightning tower!

Cheng Huang was now dead. Ning Fan dismissed the lightning diagram beneath his feet. He had already exhausted all the magic power of the ten lightning dragons.

He scanned across Dao Li and Qi Ji with his cold gaze. When these two old monsters thought of how Cheng Huang ended up, they trembled in fear. They nearly forgot the fact that they were subordinates of Ying Long’s lightning palace as they were thinking of abandoning King Ying Long to flee for their lives.

“Where are you planning to run?!”

This time, two figures emerged outside of the battlefield before Ning Fan and Lei Shiyi could go after them. The two newly arrived individuals had stopped the two Void Inquiry Stage experts who tried to flee.

The two experts who appeared out of nowhere had Void Inquiry Stage cultivation bases. Besides, they were beings who were nearly unrivalled among Void Inquiry Stage experts.

They were Lightning Lord Mo Lei and Lightning Lord Tai Yue!

“Have you both come to protect King Ying Long?! Good! Very good! Hurry up and kill that young man. Both of us will certainly give the credit to you two. King Long will certainly give you bountiful rewards!”

As soon as Dao Li and Qi Ji saw the arrival of two lightning lords, they seemed to have seen a life-saving straw in the middle of hopelessness.

However, their words were only greeted with contemptuous snorts from the two lightning lords.

“Protect King Ying Long?! We are lightning lords like Ying Long. We have equal status. Why would we lower ourselves to protect him?! Ridiculous!”

Mo Lei and Tai Yue took care of Dao Li and Qi Ji with a flip of their hands.

Dao Li and Qi Ji were already in terrible conditions, just like an arrow at the end of its flight. Thus, it was very normal for two Peak Void Inquiry Stage experts to easily capture them alive.

Both of the lightning lords knocked each of them unconscious and descended to the ground. Then, they tossed the two who were unconscious beneath Ning Fan’s feet.

“Fellow Daoist Zhou, we meet again! Count me in on your great mission to kill Ying Long. What do you think?” Tai Yue let out a hearty laughter, as if he had already forgotten that he was the one who asked Ning Fan to receive a punch from him.

“Ying Longzi is already not far from attaining the Void Pierce Stage. His techniques are extremely strong. Rumor has it that he has once defeated a true Void Pierce Stage old monster. He is not someone who you can underestimate. Since this old man owes you a favor, I have deliberately come to lend you a hand today!” Mo Lei cupped his fists and said.

“Thank you for your great kindness.”

Ning Fan nodded his head. He had already expected the arrival of both of them. When he was on the twenty-third floor, he had already noticed some signs.

Looking at the two unconscious Void Inquiry Stage old monsters beneath his feet, Ning Fan touched his glabella and took out his Separation Slayer Sword. Without any mercy, he directly ended their lives and devoured their primordial lightning.

The way he killed two Void Inquiry Stage old monsters was similar to cutting straws. This act struck terror to countless experts once again. All of them became even more respectful towards him.

As such, other than King Ying Long, nearly all of the experts of Ying Long Lightning Palace had been wiped out.

Even so, Ning Fan did not have the slightest intention of underestimating his enemy.

King Ying Long was an expert who was peerless among Void Inquiry Stage experts. Furthermore, he even managed to defeat a Void Pierce Stage expert in the past. His combat power was definitely extraordinary.

Ning Fan gazed into the mountain range to the east. His expression suddenly turned solemn.

At the next moment, Mo Lei and Tai Yue seemed to have made a difficult decision. Their breathing became a bit chaotic. It was enough to show that they were nervous inside.

Lei Shiyi and the experts from the Myriad Treasure Pavilion also stared into the mountains in the east. Their heartbeats raced.

One million li* (500m per li) away in the east, a trace of boundless and immense aura force which was similar to that of an awakened giant dragon was approaching them as fast as lightning!

After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, a lone middle-aged man wearing a set of yellow robes appeared at the peak of the eastern mountain. He looked down on all living creatures like they were ants. When he scanned across the battlefield, his rage became even more intense.

He had never expected that a day would come where someone will wreak havoc on the twenty-fourth floor.

He had also never expected that a lowly Divine Transformation Realm junior would one day go against him and kill all of his subordinates.

When the middle-aged man in yellow robes appeared, both Tai Yue and Mo Lei were suddenly filled with massive battle intent. They both took a step forward and shouted coldly.

“Ying Long! Your era of ruling over the twenty-four floors is now over. Today, you will die!”

“With just you lot?! Hilarious!”

The middle-aged man in yellow robes was so enraged that he laughed. With a wave of his hand, he tore the hollow space apart within the vicinity of one hundred li* (500m per li). Countless waves of windstorms from the Void Realm spread across the floor. The power of the void gushed down like a black current which formed an ocean beneath his feet.

As he stood above the waves of the void, his magic power became unlimited. He regulated his qi throughout his body and his magic power continuously recovered.

When he stared at Mo Lei and Tai Yue, his anger blazed. He threw out both of his fists and the illusory shadow of a double dragon emerged behind him. The two punches carried a formidable force that could make the mountains crumble and the earth to crack.

“Void Technique, Double Dragon!”

The expressions of Mo Lei and Tai Yue changed greatly. One thousand years ago, they were only a little weaker than King Ying Long.

However, after one thousand years passed by, they felt as if they were suffocating when faced with King Ying Long’s punches.

The two lightning lords forcibly hurled their fists to counter King Ying Long’s attacks. Mo Lei was not good at body techniques. He was severely injured by Ying Long right away.

As for Tai Yue, even though he had a terrifying body refinement realm which was at the Second Level of the Golden Body Realm, he was also sent flying away after taking a single punch from Ying Long. Blood flowed out from the corners of his mouth.

Even though he did not suffer severe damage, he showed signs of being defeated. It silently reflected the gap of strength between him and Ying Long.

The two lightning lords regained their balance and carefully studied the void power that gathered like an ocean beneath King Ying Long. Then, they looked at him who was standing at the center of the ocean and looked like a tiny boat in comparison. Suddenly, they understood something.

“The Qi Regulation Technique of the Void Pierce Stage!”

They finally understood the reason why King Ying Long would be so strong.

It was because even though he had yet to attain the Void Pierce Stage, he had already comprehended the Qi Regulation Technique unique to Void Pierce Stage experts.

As long as Void Pierce Stage old monsters stand on the Void Realm, they could use the void power to condense a Sea of Qi of the Void Realm that they could use to recover their magic power or temper their physical body. In other words, not only could King Ying Long quickly recover his magic power, but he could also use the void power to increase the strength of his physical body. His strength was already far greater than Mo Lei and Tai Yue combined.

“Zhou Ming, you must die!”

King Ying Long looked at him with a towering presence full of baleful qi. That was the countless killing and bloodshed he had experienced in his life.

Under that baleful qi, Lei Shiyi and the experts of the Myriad Treasure Pavilion could not withstand the aura force at all so all of them quickly retreated.

Even the two lightning lords could only regain their balance after retreating a few steps back. Their minds were startled by that intense baleful qi.

Only Ning Fan did not move a single step backwards. He faced that baleful qi head on like it was nothing.

He was not afraid of King Ying Long’s baleful qi because he had also been through too much bloodshed and had naturally seen too many peerless experts.

He had witnessed Yue Tianjue’s domineering strength and the ferociousness and invincibility of a Void Fragmentation Realm old monster.

He had witnessed the showdown between Great Emperor Mo Luo and Immortal Emperor Tai Su. He had witnessed Meng Xuanzi who suppressed the sound of the Bell of Samsara. He had crushed the eye of Immortal Emperor Zhang Qing. He had even met Immortal Sovereign Zi Dou.

With those encounters and experiences, Ning Fan would never be frightened by a mere King Ying Long. Never.

Ning Fan’s eyes were filled with blood-red baleful qi. At this moment, he had spread out a massive blood-red baleful qi which was several times stronger than that of King Ying Long. It formed a thick blood-red cloud that covered the entire sky!

“Ying Long, you are the one who will die!”

Ning Fan was not afraid of him at all and just coldly replied to him.

That sentence carried greater baleful qi and actually made King Ying Long fall back half a step. King Ying Long’s state of mind was influenced all of a sudden. His expression changed.

He, the reputable and dignified King Ying Long, had actually retreated instinctively for half a step because of the baleful qi of a junior!

It was great humiliation to him which he found difficult to believe. It made him want to kill Ning Fan instantly to vent out the hatred inside his heart!

“This man’s baleful qi is much stronger than mine. How is this possible?!”

King Ying Long gritted his teeth. He realized that he had underestimated Ning Fan from the very beginning!

Besides, he had been subconsciously feeling a bit regretful. He regretted his reckless decision of issuing the order to hunt down Ning Fan in the past. It was that very order that caused the disaster today.

However, he already had no other options. His entire army had already been wiped out by Ning Fan. The only choice he was left with was to kill Ning Fan with all his might and only then could he quell his wrath.

Before he could act, however, Ning Fan first dashed into the void ocean and took out a golden bell.

The moment the golden bell rang, parts of the void ocean began to fall apart.

The Void Pierce Stage Sea of Qi that King Ying Long had painstakingly condensed was rapidly disintegrating.

“What bell is this? It could actually break the Qi Regulation Technique of a Void Pierce Stage expert!”

A rush of astonishment filled King Ying Long’s heart. He stared at the Eastern Ocean Bell with disbelief. At the next second, however, his eyes began to fill with greed.

“This bell looks extremely similar to the item that King Dong Long 1is searching for! I must seize this item!”
