Chapter 771: Slaying the True Transcendent

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

For hundreds of years, he could immediately see that the Black Gold Sword Light was a Dao Weapon.

A Dao Weapon is considered a rare treasure for a Fate Immortal, but for a True Immortal, it is not so rare.

If Ning Fan merely held a Dao Weapon, it would not be enough to change his expression.

However, what Ning Fan held was a Dao Weapon condensed with the Second Step of Intent Realm, a weapon whose Divine Skills far surpass those of the same level!

Having lived for a million years, he had seen many renowned figures in the world, even among those who held Second Step Dao Weapons, he had seen a few.

These individuals, without exception, were all Shedding Void Stage experts!

Anyone who could condense a Dao Weapon with a Second Step of Intent Realm, which of them was not a Shedding Void Stage expert!

"Impossible! How could this mere Ghost Immortal have such a powerful Dao Weapon! Blood Transformation Blade, descend!"

Even though he was a True Immortal, despite being shaken by Ning Fans Dao Weapon, he was far from panicking.

Ning Fans Dao Weapon was not weak, but with his cultivation level being there, the capabilities of the Dao Weapon were quite limited and couldnt pose a significant threat to him.

With Ning Fans one-point-finger, within the Heaven and Earth Barrier, ten thousand eight hundred phantom swords turned into replete phantoms, locking him within.

He gathered himself, took on an expression of awe, now treating Ning Fan with at least the minimal respect.

Biting down on his finger with intensity, he pointed with a gesture, releasing a beam of blood light from the wound.

Once the blood light appeared, it instantly transformed into a blood-colored curved blade.

Looking from afar, that curved blade seemed like half of a blood-colored crescent moon, thin as a cicadas wing.

Yet when he changed his spirit sense gesture, the blood blade trembled slightly before disappearing without a trace.

In the next moment, the blood light burst towards the sky, slashing through all ten thousand eight hundred phantom swords with its blade light!

The Phantom Sword Formation, destroyed!

As the sword formation broke, the Memory Severing Dao Sword flew backwards, with filthy blood light staining its blade.

Ning Fans gaze turned cold, acknowledging that the Blood Transformation Blade was indeed a domineering Dao Weapon, having not only broken through the Phantom Sword Formation but dared to stain the sword light of the Memory Severing Dao Sword with tainted blood.

Fortunately, the Memory Severing Dao Sword was condensed from the Second Step of Intent Realm as a Dao Weapon, which wouldnt be defiled by the blood light.

If it had been a First Step Dao Weapon, it might have been directly tainted by the blood light, if not destroyed, then severely diminished in power.

"Burn!"

With a sleeve flick, Ning Fan flashed black fire to burn away the blood filth from the Memory Severing Dao Sword, raising his hand to retrieve it.

In this first clash, Ning Fan did not gain the upper hand, though that hundreds of years could hardly claim any benefit either.

From this strike, Ning Fan had already assessed hundreds of years depth, with seventy percent confidence in defeating hundreds of years, and twenty percent chance of annihilating hundreds of years!

Having initially broken the sword formation, hundreds of years wanted to show joy.

But when he realized that his Blood Transformation Blade was sealed by the icy Sword Qi, he could no longer laugh.

Relying on the strength of the Blood Transformation Blade, he broke Ning Fans Phantom Sword Formation.

Yet how formidable is the Memory Severing Dao Sword, infused with the power of memory intent, with Ning Fans determination to seal the cycles of reincarnation, and to flow out of the warmth in his heart!

The Memory Severing Dao Sword is an ice-cold sword, its chill stemming from the snowy wind of Seven Apricot City in memory.

The blade light of the Blood Transformation Blade was sealed by the cold, its power somewhat reduced.

Though the diminishment wasnt extensive, hundreds of years couldnt endure such a result.

What cultivation does he possess? As a True Immortal of the Initial Stage of Crossing Truth Realm, three minor realms and a major realm higher than Ning Fan, yet in their first exchange, he falteredwhat a disgraceful experience for him!

Gradually, his gaze grew colder, yet his mind grew even calmer.

He realized Ning Fan was no ordinary Ghost Immortal.

Apparently, Ning Fans rise to the position of alliance hierarch of the Exterminate Demon Alliance, standing alongside the four True Immortal hierarchs, wasnt solely due to luck...

"Look! The Fifth Alliance Leader and that True Immortal were evenly matched!" Some alliance cultivators stared at the sky in amazement.

"Evenly matched? Ning Fan merely managed to defend against the attack of hundreds of years, what kind of stalemate is that? Its only a temporary withholding from defeat. Soon, defeat will come." Some Flowing Sand Clan cultivators jeered coldly.

"A stalemate, yet not entirely..." Three alliance True Immortal hierarchs, their eyes slightly trembling, noticed the underlying details.

In this clash of Dao Weapons, Ning Fan gained no benefits, yet hundreds of years could be said to have suffered a slight loss...

To say they were evenly matched would be reasonable, or to say Ning Fan had a slight advantage might seem fair...

The only certainty was that hundreds of years absolutely did not hold any advantage!

"Hundreds of years is not lacking in talent, having received guidance from Shenkong the Great Emperor, yet he suffered a small loss at the hands of this child!" A crowd of Godly Void Pavilions experts, their gazes unanimously shook with shock.

They certainly hadnt expected hundreds of years to suffer loss at Ning Fans hands.

Truth be told, they harbored animosity towards Ning Fan, disapproving of his closeness to the little demoness.

Yet, they belonged to the same faction as the little demoness, even though they disliked Ning Fan, they wouldnt act rashly for the sake of the little demoness face.

Hundreds of years, however, was different; to them, he was like a political adversary.

Therefore, when hundreds of years bit the dust, the experts of Godly Void Pavilion couldnt help but feel delighted, their dissatisfaction with Ning Fan slightly alleviated.

"To think he fought hundreds of years with Ghost Immortal cultivation and still gained the upper hand!" The little demoness, astonished, slightly parted her lips before breaking into a proud smile.

No wonder he was the man she set her sights on, no wonder he was the man she decided to entangle herself with for eternity...

A woman usually calculated without error, yet facing Ning Fan, she frequently miscalculated and underestimated...

"That hundreds of years is merely asking for trouble!" Mux Tus face was devoid of any expression, though inside he was laughing coldly.

He was laughing at hundreds of years ignorance, for courting disaster.

Who is Mux Tu? An eminent Shedding Void Stage old monster, even if suppressing his cultivation to the Initial Stage of Crossing Truth, his strikewasnt something a common initial-stage Crossing Truth could withstand.

After all, his realm level was set, applying the same Crossing Truth level Divine Skills, their power was natural fuel beyond comparison.

In a clash of spells with Ning Fan, Mux Tu ended in a stalemate.

Mux Tus strength was far beyond that of hundreds of years, who had barely traversed the True Bridge, with realms not yet stabilized.

Even Mux Tu was only evenly matched with Ning Fan, while hundreds of years were slightly inferior to Ning Fan.

Of course, hundreds of years wasnt much weaker than Ning Fan; their gap was slim.

Ning Fan aiming to annihilate hundreds of years was impossible without triggering trump cards.

"Hundreds of years ties himself up, while Ning Fan deserves death! Who would have thought he shared such profound ties with the Young Lord of Shenxu Pavilion. For all my tolerance towards this child, hoping to leverage his Three Flowers Art for some chance encounter, now viewed rightly; the child need not be further utilized, it would be better to just kill directly!"

At the deepest corner of Mux Tus eyes, a thick sense of hatred and murderous intent quietly flowed.

The grudge between him and Shenxu Pavilion couldnt be resolved, and Ning Fan merely possessing the role of the little demoness husband was reason enough for him to wish Ning Fan dead forever in the Flowing Sand Star Domain!

Ning Fan had no clue that a single word from the little demoness invited mortal enemies, far beyond hundreds of years!

He had no idea Mux Tu had no further plans to use him, only wishing to annihilate him!

At this moment, Ning Fan focused intently in confrontation with hundreds of years, his aura entirely seamless.

His dark hair danced wildly in the air, yet his black eyes were slightly closed.

Upon reopening his eyes, Ning Fans pupils turned blood-red, tainted by Evil Qi!

In the instant Ning Fans eyes turned blood-red, the pressure of Evil Qi flowed out like a bloody mist into the sky.

Confined by the Heavenly Barrier, the pressure couldnt spread beyond, and cultivators outside the barrier couldnt accurately sense Ning Fans pressure.

But positioned within the barrier, hundreds of years nearly died of fright upon sensing Ning Fans pressure!

In the Six Desires battle, Ning Fan schemed meticulously, ambushing Fei He, Jun Linyuan, Weichen Ancestor, and the Thousand-Eyed Old Monster.

Although leveraging the Slaughter Emperor Jade Slip to eradicate all powerhouses, his Evil Qi still increased massively.

His Evil Qi was so intense that even he struggled to restrain it, rarely daring to reveal it.

Annihilating three Shedding Void Stage, and one mumbling, this Evil Qi was more than sufficient to instill terror in any cultivator below mumbling!

Upon releasing the pressure of Evil Qi, Ning Fans body seemingly ignited, emitting strands of blood fire.

The blood fire wasnt flame but blood flame!

Its said that only an Evil Sect when reaching a certain level of Evil Qi, would allow blood flame to appear upon releasing fury.

Outside of the barrier, cultivators witnessing the apparition of blood flame on Ning Fans body were amazed. They couldnt perceive the precise intensity of Ning Fans Evil Qi but could only speculate by imagination!

At this moment, even Mu Tu held his breath, looking at Ning Fan in disbelief.

"Blood Flame, its actually the Blood Flame! How could this mere Guixuan have the virtue or ability to cultivate the Blood Flame? Hmph, could it be that this Blood Flame is just some advanced illusion, deceiving our eyes?" Mu Tu thought gloomily.

Many old monsters, after being shocked, also felt that Ning Fans Blood Flame was too unreal, thinking it was some sort of advanced illusion or something similar to Blood Flames supernatural power.

The little demoness stared blankly at the Heaven and Earth Barrier. She couldnt tell if the Blood Flame was real or fake, but she could see that Ning Fan was very painful at the moment using the Blood Flame...

"That must be the real Blood Flame... Otherwise, he wouldnt be in such pain... Xu Nian, how dare you make him suffer like this... This time, I wont let you leave the Flowing Sand Star Domain alive!"

In the little demonesss eyes, an unyielding frost formed, and her killing intent quietly locked onto Xu Nian.

If she could break Xu Nians Heaven and Earth Barrier, she would definitely rush into the barrier and bring Ning Fan out...

Xu Nian truly couldnt express his suffering!

He was in the Heaven and Earth Barrier, the only one here who truly felt the terrifying might of Ning Fan!

If it werent for Ning Fans cultivation being too low, far from enough to control such powerful Evil Qi, how could he be Ning Fans opponent!

If Ning Fan had the cultivation of the Peak Crossing Truth Realm, perhaps just relying on the current Evil Qi would be enough to condense the Evil into a fist, smashing all Masters below the Shedding Void Stage!

Even though Ning Fan couldnt yet control the Evil Qi at will, Xu Nian was already heavily suppressed by this Evil Qi, his aura already in disarray, able to mobilize only thirty percent of his mana...

At this moment, Xu Nian was still stronger than the peak of Guixuan, but his strength was far less powerful than Crossing Truth.

At this moment, for the first time, fear of Ning Fan arose in Xu Nians heart!

He wanted to use a spell to remove the Heaven and Earth Barrier, but because his aura was chaotic, the mana he could use was too little to dismantle the barrier...

He finally understood what Ning Fan meant by "being caught in ones own trap"!

This Heaven and Earth Barrier was the grave he dug for himself!

"Ning Fan! You cant kill me! You are merely an ordinary disciple of the Slaughter Hall, and I am one of the three hundred disciples of Shenkong the Great Emperor, one of the Godly Void Pavilions two emperors! If you kill me, perhaps Shenkong the Great Emperor, considering his status, might not do anything to you, but his three hundred disciples will definitely view you as a great enemy and seek to destroy you!"

"On the contrary, if you spare me today and sever ties with Xiao Qianci, I can make a Heart Demon Vow and recommend you to Shenkong the Great Emperor! If you can become one of Shenkongs three hundred disciples, your future will be limitless!"

These words, Xu Nian transmitted to Ning Fan through sound.

This was a threat, but also a plea for mercy!

Such humiliating words for pleading mercy, how could he let outsiders hear them.

Upon hearing Xu Nians half-threatening, half-begging words, Ning Fans gaze sharpened, growing even colder.

He discerned the immense background of Xu Nian, having a grand Immortal Emperor as his backing!

Shenkong the Great Emperor, one of the Godly Void Twin Emperors, his cultivation already at the peak of the Eighth Calamity of the Eternals, wielded great power in Eastern Heaven; how could Ning Fan not know!

Xu Nian, being one of Shenkongs three hundred disciples, held an extraordinary status, enough to make some Shedding Void Stage old monsters avoid him.

Unfortunately, even knowing Xu Nians background, Ning Fan had no intention of sparing Xu Nian!

In Xu Nians words, he constantly targeted the little demoness.

Even if he was willing to recommend himself to Shenkong te Great Emperor, the prerequisite was that he must sever ties with the little demoness.

Ning Fan could easily guess that Xu Nian, even Shenkong the Great Emperor behind him, probably didnt get along with the little demoness...

Since Xu Nian was the enemy of the little demoness, he was also Ning Fans enemy.

If Ning Fan killed Xu Nian, what would it matter!

"Noisy!"

At this moment, Ning Fan endured the intense pain of the Blood Flame burning his body, but his monster eyes remained cold, his gaze changed, and his Dao Image manifested.

Demonic Night Transformation, Dao-Manifested Big Dipper!

The barrier could confine Ning Fans body, but it couldnt confine Ning Fans Dao!

The Dao Image descended upon the Flowing Sand Realm once more, turning the entire Flowing Sand Realm into night instantly, and the Big Dipper stars appeared in the sky!

"Its that Dao Image again!" Mu Tus eyes narrowed.

"This... This is a Dao Image! Little Fan Fan has already successfully demonstrated the Dao!" The little demoness was once again dazzled by Ning Fan, her dark eyes sparkling repeatedly.

No man had ever made her shine so brightly again and again!

"What a strong Dao Image!" The True Immortals of the Godly Void Pavilion, who had all demonstrated the Dao and formed their Dao Images, were all amazed.

But no ones Dao Image had such infinite phenomena and imposing momentum as Ning Fans.

At this moment, Ning Fan, draped in white, walked in the night, intending to drown the world with demonic thoughts and guide the people with Daoist thoughts.

As he stepped toward Xu Nian, Xu Nian trembled all over, yet bit his tongue, using the pain to slightly regain some fighting spirit.

He knew Ning Fan did not intend to spare him!

Xu Nian, too, was no coward. Since the enmity between them could not be reconciled, he didnt mind fighting Ning Fan to the death!

"True Art, Body Sealing Technique!"

"True Art, Shenkong Pointer!"

At this moment, Xu Nian burned his Spirit!

At this moment, Xu Nian pointed both index fingers forward, simultaneously activating two Great Divine Powers!

These two divine techniques were personally taught by Shenkong the Great Emperor. The former was a simplified version of the lost Ancestral Arts of Eastern HeavenHeaven Sealing Technique.

The latter was the most powerful divine technique of Shenkong the Great EmperorSky Annihilation Finger, in a simplified form.

If Xu Nian still had his full mana, one Body Sealing Technique could immobilize any Master below Crossing Truth!

One Shenkong Pointer was enough to seriously harm an opponent of the same level in Crossing Truth!

But unfortunately, at this moment, he could only mobilize thirty percent of his mana, and the power of the two arts was pitifully weak.

"Body Sealing Technique! Shenkong Pointer! Xu Nian, facing a Guixuan, actually used both trump-card divine arts! Using both fingers will result in a severe backlash; isnt he concerned about his life anymore!" Many Divine Void Cultivators who knew Xu Nians background were all shocked.

A trace of worry flickered in the little demonesss eyes, but the next moment, she shook her head, dispelling her worries.

"Little Fan Fan will not lose to Xu Nian, I believe in him!" the little demoness affirmed with confidence.

At the moment Xu Nian used the Body Sealing Technique, Ning Fans eyes mocked, yet he wasnt immobilized even a fraction.

Xu Nians imitation of the ancestral art couldnt bind the cultivator of the Heaven Sealing TechniqueNing Fan!

However, the Shenkong Pointer was sharp and domineering, making Ning Fan dare not underestimate it at all.

One can imagine what kind of overbearing personality the creator of this pointer must have had; Xu Nian didnt create this pointer!

Even if he cultivated this pointer, he couldnt comprehend the mindset behind it, just an empty form!

"Sky Grasping Thought!"

Demonic thoughts dispersed, Daoist thoughts remained!

In an instant, the blood light in Ning Fans eyes transformed into a Sky Grasping Thought, with a raise of hand, fusing seven palms into one.

One palm covered the sky, a black and white giant palm descended from the Nine Heavens Milky Way, with one palm, crushing the pretentious Shenkong Pointer into dust!

The momentum of the palm print didnt diminish, sweeping across toward Xu Nian, the wind from the palm causing Xu Nians skin to ache.

He forcibly activated two Great Divine Powers, the backlash was too severe, he couldnt employ a third means of self-defense in time!

When he saw the Body Sealing Technique couldnt immobilize Ning Fan, he was even more terrified!

When he saw the Shenkong Pointer being nullified by Ning Fan, he was even more desperate!

He seemed paralyzed, unable to move due to the backlash.

In only an instant, it felt longer than a century.

His prolonged thoughts all vanished at the moment the palm print was upon him!

Boom!

One palm fell, the Flowing Sand Realm trembled continuously, the roar resounded across every dune of this realm!

Ning Fan dispelled the Dao Image, stepping on the shattered barrier, his gaze like a demon.

And Xu Nian had already fallen!

Slaying the True Transcendent!
