"Immortal Entrapping Sword Intent!"

Countless old monsters suddenly rose from their seats in every direction of the jade platform. All of them looked at Venerated Sword who was standing at the center of the platform in disbelief!

In the Ancient Heavenly Court, there were four greatest ancient swords and the Immortal Entrapping Sword was one of them.

From ancient times, all those who could fully comprehend the sword intent of the four great ancient swords were terrifying sword cultivators who were unmatched among other experts on their level.

Since Venerated Sword was a Half-Step Void Refinement Realm expert who had remarkable strength, he would probably have no adversary among cultivators below the Void Refinement Realm if he had mastered the complete Immortal Entrapping Sword Intent!

However, those old monsters could not see that Venerated Sword only had a trace of the Immortal Entrapping Sword Intent infused in his sword intent and had not truly comprehended it.

As for the Divine Transformation Realm expert from the Hundred Swords Sect who was knocked down from the jade platform, his expression immediately turned pale after recognizing the Immortal Entrapping Sword Intent. He hurriedly rose to his feet and returned to the seats assigned to his sect. How would he still have the guts to challenge Venerated Sword?

From his perspective, even though Venerated Sword was not a Void Refinement Realm expert, how could a lowly Early Divine Transformation Realm junior like him resist against him since he had comprehended the Immortal Entrapping Sword Intent…

"Anyone who wishes to lay a finger on the people of the Giant Devil Clan, fight me first!"

Venerated Sword suddenly drew his sword and stood at the center of the platform all alone.

He held an ancient sword in his hand which had patterns similar to pine wood while carrying a massive sword scabbard on his back. His long white beard fluttered gently as the wind blew. The sword qi around his body was as tremendous as a dragon, making him as imposing as a celestial being!

The countless seats placed around the jade platform were occupied by hundreds of thousands of cultivators who came from over a hundred first-class sects of the Rain World.

Despite the massive crowd of people gathered here, no one dared to go up to the platform and challenge Venerated Sword at this moment.

Those cultivators at the Divine Transformation Realm or lower were all afraid of Venerated Sword.

As for most of the Void Refinement Realm old monsters present, they did not ascend to the platform to fight Venerated Sword to maintain their image. They did not want to gain the bad reputation of being a big bully.

After all, Venerated Sword was only at the Half-Step Void Refinement Realm which still made him a Divine Transformation Realm cultivator. Therefore, each of those Void Refinement Realm old monsters who cared more for their reputations was not going to bully a Divine Transformation Realm cultivator.

"*Sigh* Old Man Sword, you really…" Dong Xu sighed emotionally while Ju Qing's face was filled with embarrassment.

Ju Qing did not have a good relationship with Venerated Sword. Moreover, the two of them even held grudges against each other in the past.

However, when the Giant Devil Clan was in trouble, Venerated Sword stood up for them thinking that he had to help them as they were both part of the venerated seven forces of the internal sea. The virtue and breadth of mind he displayed really moved Ju Qing.

"Venerated Sword's sword intent does indeed contain a trace of Immortal Entrapping Sword Intent. However, it's merely a trace and that's it. Humph! A mere trace of the Immortal Entrapping Sword Intent is of no importance! From what I heard, the Sword Island used to have a broken fragment of the Immortal Entrapping Sword. However, the White-Robed Sword God has already taken that fragment away at some point of time… I didn't believe it at first. Now, however, it seems like the rumors were true."

On the main seats, the sect master of the Ice Mountain Sword Sect, Marquis Shen Jian, let out a cold harrumph. He did not spare a glance at Venerated Sword, thinking that the latter was unworthy of his attention. Even so, he was still mindful of his own reputation and chose not to fight him.

However, Marquis Shen Jian's voice openly spread across the area.

Many Divine Transformation Realm old monsters immediately heaved sighs of relief after hearing that Venerated Sword's Immortal Entrapping Sword Intent was not the complete version.

If what Venerated Sword had learned was merely a trace of the Immortal Entrapping Sword Intent, some among the Divine Transformation Realm in the audience seats might be able to win against him.

"So you are Venerated Sword of the Sword Island, huh? Then, let this old man have a taste of your remarkable moves!"

An old man who wore a green sword robe and held a green crystal-like flying sword suddenly flew to the jade platform and challenged Venerated Sword.

This man was the sect master of the Hundred Swords Sect. He was also a Half-Step Void Refinement Realm sword cultivator.

"The sect master of the Hundred Swords Sect – Zhao Jie… Humph! You aren't my match!!"

*Chi*

Venerated Sword abruptly waved his sword. His ancient sword emitted a sharp shrill, changing the color of the sky and clouds at ten thousand zhang* (3.33m per zhang) above the jade platform. All of a sudden, dark green sword rays shot out from his sword, scattering into millions of rays of sword light which covered the sky like rain droplets!

*Sword Rain Style!"

Zhao Jie's expression greatly changed. The sword technique which Venerated Sword displayed carried destructive power extremely close to the Void Glimpse Stage!

Even though he knew that Venerated Sword was someone he must not underestimate, he did not expect him to be this strong. His power was nearly at the peak among cultivators below the Void Refinement Realm.

In panic, Zhao Jie wildly waved his green crystal sword to display the strongest sword technique of his Hundred Swords Sect – One Hundred Sword Style.

In just an instant, he produced tens of thousands of sword rays. However, all of them were no match for Venerated Sword's sword rain and were destroyed one after another.

Zhao Jie's face was filled with disbelief. He hurriedly retreated from the platform but it was already too late because he was heavily surrounded by the sword rain.

A scream full of pain reverberated across the arena. The sword rain pierced through Zhao Jie's body, puncturing tens of tiny bloody holes on him. He was then sent away from the jade platform while spraying out blood from his mouth.

He did not die but he was already grievously injured. Clearly, he had lost to Venerated Sword!

"Venerated Sword of the Sword Island won." The Void Glimpse Stage elderly man who was presiding over the fight announced. This man was the sect master of the Six Flames Sect and his name was Yan Xiao.

"Venerated Sword is mighty!" On the low-class seats, many sword cultivators from the Sword Island cheered with their arms raised in the air.

"Who else wants to fight me?!" Venerated Sword's angry eyes scanned past the groups of experts and cultivators on the audience seats.

"Venerated Sword has an excellent technique. My name is Yan Hui and I am the sect master of the Flying Swallow Sect. Now, let me try taking your remarkable moves!"

At the next moment, an old man with a short stature jumped up to the jade platform with a sword on his back. He was the person who was responsible for the provocation from the crowd just now. His presence emanated Half-Step Void Refinement Realm aura force.

Even though this old man was small and short, his actions were extremely fast. In a blink of an eye, he drew his sword and raised it to the sky. The sword light produced the vague shadow of a flying swallow. The technique he was using was actually a flying sword technique!

"Flying Swallow Style!"

The flying sword became as light and as swift as a swallow. In a flash, it vanished without a trace. It was enough to see how fast the sword light was.

Venerated Sword's old eyes turned grim. He did not dare to put down his guard. He held his sword and leapt into the air to avoid the flying sparrow sword light. From above, he then made a slash at Yan Hui who was standing below.

"Sword Waterfall Style!"

In the next instant, the sword light poured out like a massive waterfall, rushing down at Yan Hui like the Milky Way descending from the Ninth Heaven.

Yan Hui's flying sword immediately returned to him as soon as it touched Venerated Sword's sword light that was as terrifying as a waterfall. Countless cracks appeared on its body.

As his natal flying sword had been damaged, Yan Hui coughed out fresh blood. In the next moment, he raised his head and looked upward.

When he saw the sword light falling upon him like the Milky Way, his heart was instantly filled with fear. He no longer had time to withdraw from the platform.

*Bang*

The massive jade platform was pulverized by that waterfall sword light!

Venerated Sword stood in midair. In the ruins of the jade platform beneath him, Yan Hui was drenched in blood. The damage he took was extremely severe. After throwing a fearful glance at Venerated Sword, he fell to the ground and passed out.

"Venerated Sword of the Sword Island won!" The sect master of the Six Flames Sect announced with a neutral tone.

"Sect Master!" The experts of the Hundred Swords Sect immediately went to carry Yan Hui back, fearing that Venerated Sword might take his life.

*Hiss*

Below the jade platform, each of the Divine Transformation Realm experts were extremely terrified.

Venerated Sword's strength was indeed at the peak of all cultivators at the Divine Transformation Realm. No one would be able to defeat him except for a true Void Refinement Realm expert!

All of a sudden, not a single one of the Divine Transformation Realm cultivators dared to challenge Venerated Sword again!

"Venerated Sword is mighty!" The members of the Sword Island cheered even more loudly.

On the seats designated for the Barbarian Dao Sect located at the main seats, the sect master of the Barbarian Dao Sect, Marquis Nan Man, looked displeased. He then turned around and gave an order to an elderly man who carried a sword on his back.

"He's just a lowly Half-Step Void Refinement Realm cultivator. He really has no idea of the immensity of heaven and earth to have thought that he can challenge over one hundred sects on his own using the sword intent of a broken Immortal Entrapping Sword. Lian Qin, go and kill him!"

"Understood!"

That elderly man took a step forward and turned into a ray of light. In the next second, he appeared at the ruins of the jade platform.

That man was also a Half-Step Void Refinement Realm sword cultivator but his aura force was not any weaker than Venerated Sword's.

Venerated Sword descended to the ground, staring at his new opponent solemnly. He did not dare to belittle him.

"I'm Lian Qin. Under my sect master's orders, I came to take your head!"

*Chi*

Just as his voice fell, his body released a frightening sword intent. The force of his sword intent was extremely formidable. Within that sword intent, there was even a trace of an ancient sword intent which shocked Venerated Sword!

Countless old monsters around the jade platforms cried out in surprise again. When Lian Qin pulled out the gigantic sword from his back, the uproar became even more intense.

"T-This is… the Immortal Slaying Sword Intent! Isn't the sword that Lian Qin is currently holding the Immortal Slaying Ancient Sword?!"

"No. The sword he is holding right now isn't the real Immortal Slaying Sword. It's just an imitation… However, it contains a small broken piece of the Immortal Slaying Sword which greatly boosts the sword's power!"

*Chi*

Lian Qin pointed his sword at Venerated Sword. By just taking one step forward, he had already become one with his sword. He sent out a massive all-conquering sword light which dashed toward Venerated Sword at an unimaginable speed.

Venerated Sword's eyes widened in surprise. He did not back off but advanced instead.

The battle between two sword cultivators emphasized on aura force. If one chose to retreat even just half a step backward, they would lose their aura force which would in turn make them lose to their opponents.

Even though he knew that he could not withstand the sword might from the Immortal Slaying Ancient Sword imitation using his own power, he could not take a step back at all!

He quickly made a hand seal and the sword scabbard on his back immediately gave off sword shrills of several hundred thousands of flying swords.

At the next moment, hundreds of thousands of flying swords flew out from the scabbard and went toward Lian Qin's sword light in torrents.

*Bang* *Bang* *Bang*

Countless flying swords were broken into pieces. Each of the flying swords was at least a Core Realm flying sword while the strongest among them was a Half-Step Void Treasure!

This was Venerated Sword's strongest trump card. Even a true Void Refinement Realm expert would have to retreat with a numbed scalp when facing hundreds of thousands of flying swords.

*Puke*

After breaking nearly two hundred thousand flying swords, the sword light from the Immortal Slaying Ancient Sword imitation was finally destroyed.

Lian Qin violently spurted out fresh blood from his mouth with an expression filled with a mixture of surprise and fear. The remaining three hundred thousand flying swords shredded him to pieces, violently killing him on top of the ruins. His primordial spirit did not even get to escape from the torrent of flying swords!

"It's a close call…"

Venerated Sword gently exhaled. He held Lian Qin's sword in his hand. Fear still lingered within him as he studied the sword.

If he hadn't used his strongest trump card, he probably would not have won against Lian Qin.

"Venerated Sword of the Sword Island won…" This time, even the expression of the Void Glimpse Stage host changed slightly. Clearly, he was astonished by Venerated Sword's insane swordsmanship.

*Hiss*

Each of the spectators were also shocked by Venerated Sword's ultimate sword technique.

Using the power of his sword scabbard, he could send out five hundred thousand flying swords at once. Other than a Void Refinement Realm old monster, who could withstand that attack?!

On the seats for the Barbarian Dao Sect, Marquis Nan Man burst into anger. He had never expected that Venerated Sword who was only a Half-Step Void Refinement Realm cultivator would actually dare to kill a member of his sect in front of over one hundred sects!

"How dare you kill my subordinate?! You're courting death!"

Marquis Nan Man jumped and dashed toward the jade platform. His burly physique displayed great vigor and strength. He reached out his claw to Venerated Sword, abruptly unleashing his aura force.

His Void Glimpse Stage aura force swept across the ruins. No matter how powerful Venerated Sword's trump card was, he could at most intimidate cultivators who were below the Void Refinement Realm. As a Void Glimpse Stage expert, why would Marquis Nan Man be afraid of him?!

Besides, Venerated Sword was bold enough to openly kill a member of his sect. As the sect master, he naturally could not tolerate this humiliation. No matter what, he must teach him a lesson!

"This is bad!"

After Venerated Sword defeated three people consecutively, he had used up a great amount of his magic power. Moreover, his cultivation base was far lower than that of Marquis Nan Man. There was no way he could withstand the incoming claw.

Under Marquis Nan Man's vigorous aura force, Venerated Sword felt his breathing became difficult while his qi became stagnant. He could not withstand it at all.

It was obvious that Nan Man wanted to kill Venerated Sword. He wanted Venerated Sword to pay with his life!

Seeing Venerate Sword was in great trouble, Dong Xu and Ju Qing certainly could not sit still any longer. How could they watch Venerated Sword die from standing up for the Giant Devil Clan?

Both of them took out their natal magic treasures and delivered an attack toward Marquis Nan Man's back.

When Nan Man sensed the attacks from behind, he could not help but stop his attack. He turned his claw into a palm and smacked Venerated Sword. At the same time, he turned around and charged at Dong Xu and Ju Qing with a cold sneer.

"How dare a bunch of Half-Step Void Refinement cultivators like you try to cross me?! You're both seeking death!"

*Bang*

Marquis Nan Man's palm attack tore the hollow space apart. Venerated Sword placed his sword horizontally in front of his chest but it still could not withstand that Void Glimpse Stage palm attack. Upon impact, he was sent flying away while coughing out blood.

Even though Dong Xu and Ju Qing had managed to save Venerate Sword from a close shave with death, they got targeted by Marquis Nan Man in exchange.

As soon as Marquis Nan Man turned around, he dashed toward them without hesitation and delivered out two palm attacks.

The massive force behind his palms washed over them. Both Dong Xu and Ju Qing sprayed out blood from their mouths. They could not withstand a single attack from Nan Man at all.

"Just a few ants who don't know their own place. Do you really think you can mess with me?!" Marquis Nan Man said disdainfully.

"I might be an insignificant ant, but what are you?! You completely have no idea that the Giant Devil Clan is under someone's protection." Venerated Sword said with gritted teeth.

"Protection? The protector of the Giant Devil Clan, you say. Could it be Zhou Ming?" Marquis Nan Man had also heard of the rumors about Ning Fan killing the country lord of Shi Le Country and the Palace Lord of the Scarlet Heaven Palace. When he heard of his notoriety, he certainly felt fear within.

However, when he thought of it in a different perspective, it was not only his Barbarian Dao Sect that was targeting the Giant Devil Clan but over one hundred different first-class forces instead.

Among these forces, eleven of them had Void Refinement Realm masters including the Barbarian Dao Sect. And among these Void Refinement Realm experts, there were also experts at the Void Inquiry and even the Void Pierce Stage.

From Marquis Nan Man's perspective, no matter how strong Ning Fan was, there was no way he could be strong enough to go against a Void Pierce Stage expert. Therefore, he definitely would not have the guts to come to the Giant Devil Clan's aid.

In that case, he no longer needed to be afraid of him.

"Humph! So what if the Giant Devil Clan is under Zhou Ming's protection?! We have over one hundred sects here. One Zhou Ming is certainly not our match. Moreover, I don't think he will even be brave enough to come here. The three of you, do you think I will be scared?! Go to hell!" Marquis Nan Man's eyes turned cold and pointed a finger at them. The power of his finger split into three different rays which went after the three venerated beings respectively.

Venerated Sword, Dong Xu and Ju Qing were already inflicted with severe injuries at this moment. How would they be able to withstand the incoming attacks…?

Inside the large cage, Feng Xueyan who had been maintaining her silence all this time could no longer retain her composure when she saw her father's life was in danger. She began making incoherent sounds with tears flowing down her cheeks. However, no one could understand what she was trying to say.

She was just a little girl who had no ability to speak. Now, she could not even plead to the sect master of the Barbarian Dao Sect to spare her father's life…

"Island Lord!"

"Venerated Sword!"

"Clan Leader!"

Countless experts of Dong Xu Island, the Sword Island and the Giant Devil Clan were all panicking. No one was able to rescue the three venerated beings.

*Bang* *Bang* *Bang*

The three finger attacks landed at the ruins, stirring up clouds of dust which made it difficult for everyone to clearly see the situation on the battleground.

However, there was no doubt that the three venerated beings who were already in grievous conditions would die after receiving Marquis Nan Man's Void Glimpse Stage attacks.

"There is no need to watch any longer. Venerated Sword, Venerated Dong Xu and Venerated Giant are all dead for sure." The sect master of the Six Flames Sect announced the result of the fight.

"Humph! That is for certain! I fought them myself. If I couldn't even kill three Half-Step Void Refinement Realm cultivators, wouldn't I be living my life as a cultivator for nothing?!" Marquis Nan Man said with a disdainful tone outside the clouds of dust.

On the seats of the Lan Ling Sect, King Lan Ling closed his eyes indifferently. He was not concerned about whether the three venerated beings were dead or alive. In his eyes, no matter how strong they were, they were still only a bunch of insignificant ants. If an ant dies, what does it have to do with him?

The reason why he came to the Giant Devil Clan was only to get the devil slate of the clan and Feng Xueyan. He already had the slate of the Six-Winged Clan in his hands. If he could also get the slate of the Giant Devil Clan, he could ask Feng Xueyan to decipher the ancient scriptures on the slates…

In his mind, perhaps the ancient scriptures on the two devil slates would be enough for him to heal the injuries on his true body.

On the seats of the Ghost Eye Clan, Marquis You Gui sneered.

"The eight old people of the Giant Devil Clan who are still pathetically clinging to their lives really can keep their composure. They are still unwilling to show themselves even though the leader of the clan has died… Humph!"

He then shifted his gaze toward King Lan Ling. He still had yet to forget about the great feud between them.

However, Marquis You Gui was also trying to get a slice of the cake called the Giant Devil Clan at this moment. Before obtaining the devil slate of the Giant Devil Clan, he would not go against King Lan Ling.

Only when the devil slate appears would he settle the old score with him!

On the seats of the Martial Sect, the vice sect master, Wu Tian, was coldly staring at the ruins. Suddenly, his expression was filled with surprise. He had just received the message-transmitting flying sword from his sect master, Marquis Wu Mu. After hearing the message of the flying sword, the blood on his face was immediately drained!

"Vice Sect Master, what happened?" A few elders of the Martial Sect asked in confusion. As the vice sect master of the Martial Sect, Wu Tian was a Void Glimpse Stage old monster who would remain calm in the face of any situation. Now, however, he actually turned pale after hearing the message from the flying sword.

These elders of the Martial Sect could not imagine what kind of incident would scare Wu Tian like this.

"Sect master ordered us to withdraw from the Giant Devil Clan at once… We must not get ourselves into this deep water because…" Because of his overwhelming fear, Wu Tian could not finish the second half of his sentence at all.

Because there is a devil lord whom Marquis Wu Mu didn't even dare to defy coming to the Giant Devil Clan. That person wants to defend the clan!

On the seats of the Nirvana Valley, the lord of the valley, Yuan Xiu, who was also at the Second Level of the Golden Body Refining Realm looked at the direction of the ruins. All of a sudden, his body trembled in fear for no reason!

That kind of fear originated from the pressure of an immense aura force from an individual with a greater body refining realm!

In the mist, there was something which gave out a frightening body refining aura force making Yuan Xiu instinctively feel afraid!

On the seats of the Scarlet Demon Sect, the sect master, King Chi Yao, looked at Marquis Nan Man's direction and licked his lips. He was ready to release the pent-up Void Inquiry Stage aura force within his body at any moment.

Now, even the leader of the Giant Devil Clan had already died. Who else could stop the one hundred sects from seizing the slate and Feng Xueyan?

"Erm… Who's there?!"

On the seats of the Rain Palace, a Void Glimpse Stage pill refinement master suddenly rose to his feet and said with a surprised tone while looking at the ruins that were covered in dust.

This person was the palace lord of the Yang Heaven Palace. His name was Zheng He and he was a Peak Fifth Revolution Pill Refinement Master.

The Yang Heaven Palace was once under the control of the Rain Palace's Fourth Prince. However, because Yuan Tianjue had murdered the Fourth Prince, the Yang Heaven Palace had lost the Void Fragmentation Realm expert watching over their palace.

The reason why Zheng He came to the Giant Devil Clan was not because of the devil slate or Feng Xueyan. Instead, he came to look for Ning Fan.

And the reason why he wanted to look for him was because there were rumors claiming that Ning Fan's pill refinement realm could be ranked the eighth in the Rain World. He could not accept it!

As a Fifth Revolution Pill Refinement Master, Zheng He's senses were unusually keen. He was the first one who sensed something was strange within the dust.

As the dust gradually dispersed, the figures of three severely injured people were standing on the ruins. They were none other than the three venerated beings.

Even though they were already injured, they managed to survive Marquis Nan Man's attack. This far exceeded everyone's expectations.

"Why didn't the three of them die?" The cultivators of some other sects asked with curiosity.

"Look! What is that?!" Another group of cultivators noticed an abnormal sight in the sky above them.

No one knew as to when a massive ancient golden sword appeared in the sky above the jade platform!

There were three people on the hilt of the sword, two ladies on the middle of the sword and a white-robed young man wearing an icy cold expression at the tip of the sword. His Void Inquiry Stage spirit sense spread extremely far away.

He gently raised one of his hands. In his palms, it was actually the power of the three finger attacks!

They were clearly the finger attacks Marquis Nan Man sent to attack the three venerated beings.

The white-robed young man managed to block his three finger attacks with just one of his hands. Without a doubt, his cultivation base was far stronger than Marquis Nan Man's.

And it was fairly obvious too that the only reason why the three venerated beings were still alive was all because of this young man's help.

"Who are you?! How dare you stop me from killing them…? Aren't you afraid of offending the forces of over one hundred sects here?!" Marquis Nan Man was trying to question the young man as all the sects were here. At the next moment, however, his body began to tremble out of his control.

It was because many cultivators from the internal sea had already recognized the identity of the person who had just recently arrived. Countless cries of surprise resounded across the entire Northern Cold Country!

"Z-Zhou Ming! He is Zhou Ming! He showed up! He actually showed up!"

King Lan Ling who had been shutting his eyes suddenly opened them. He stared at Ning Fan in disbelief. "Void Inquiry Stage aura force?! How is it possible for this ant to break through to the Void Inquiry Stage in such a short period of time. Could it be that the rumors about him suppressing the Mist Horn Clan were true?!"

During his first meeting with Ning Fan, he was still at the Divine Transformation Realm… It had only been months since their first meeting and he had now attained the Void Inquiry Stage!? How could this be possible?!

When the Rain Sovereign ordered King Lan Ling to teach Ning Fan a lesson, he disdained doing so because he thought that he was unworthy of his attention…

However, the insignificant ant that he had ignored all this while had actually grown to this level… How could this be possible?!

Outside the ruins, Marquis Nan Man could not calm himself down. His heart was beating vigorously while his back was drenched in cold sweat. Both of his hands were shaking…

"What?! This guy is Zhou Ming!?"

He muttered to himself but no one answered him. Only an immense sense of danger which could threaten his life washed over him.

He raised his head in fear and met Ning Fan's cold piercing eyes.

"Didn't you say I have no guts to show up…? Well, I'm here!"

*Chi*

Ning Fan's body vanished from the tip of the ancient sword in the next instant. Immense fear instantly spread throughout Marquis Nan Man's body, making his heart race and his body shake.

Marquis Nan Man was fully aware that Ning Fan had made his move on him and every strike he would make would be fatal. Otherwise, he would not have been so frightened!

Nan Man's mind was in complete turmoil.

A madman! This is an utter madman! He's actually bold enough to kill me in front of one hundred first-class sects!

Is he planning on siding with the Giant Devil Clan and fighting one hundred sects on his own?!

Unfortunately, Marquis Nan Man who was a dignified Void Glimpse Stage expert could not even see Ning Fan's shadow…

Is this the difference of power between me and him?!

Marquis Nan Man was so scared that his face turned white. While hurriedly retreating, he was requesting help from the Scarlet Demon Sect that was the closest to him.

He understood that he certainly could not preserve his life with his strength alone!

"Fellow Daoist Chi, save me! After this, I'm willing to give you the 'Fierce Cultivation Pill'!"

"Fierce Cultivation Pill?!"

When King Chi Yao, someone who did not have a friendly relationship with Marquis Nan Man, heard of what the latter promised him, he jumped up from his seat and went to save him with a smirk.

Doubtlessly, he had sensed Ning Fan's Void Inquiry Stage aura force and also heard of his notorious deeds. However, he was also at the Void Inquiry Stage. Why would he be afraid of the 'Void Inquiry Stage' Ning Fan?

His speed was fast. But while he was only halfway through to Marquis Nan Man's aid, his face was filled with shock.

On the path where Marquis Nan Man was fleeing, Ning Fan emerged like a ghost and sent out a palm attack.

Even though that palm attack seemed normal, it carried a vigorous force that could move mountains and fill up seas. It was completely comparable to a strike of a body cultivator at the Third Level of the Golden Body Refining Realm. It was not an attack that a Void Glimpse Stage cultivator could withstand!

Marquis Nan Man was stunned. He could not avoid the direct palm attack at all and all he could do was to take that attack head-on.

*Bang*

With a single palm attack, the hollow space within the vicinity of one hundred thousand li* (500m per li) was torn apart as a massive devil qi filled the air. As for Marquis Nan Man, he died with his eyes open with his remains nowhere to be found!

Even in his death, he could not believe why a Void Glimpse Stage cultivator like him would be instantly killed by a single attack from Ning Fan!

"H-How is this possible?! Even if this man is a Void Inquiry Stage cultivator, it's impossible for him to kill a Void Glimpse Stage cultivator with just a random attack!"

King Chi Yao realized that the situation was against him and wanted to return to his seat. However, it was already too late for him.

Ning Fan's eyes filled with killing intent had already locked onto him.

"Trying to leave? Too late!"

With a wave of his hand, Ning Fan displayed the Heaven Sealing Technique. Countless blood threads immediately spread out from King Chi Yao's body, immobilizing him in midair.

Despite the fact that they were both at the same cultivation level, King Chi Yao actually could not move at all when Ning Fan immobilized him!

"W-What is this magic technique?! Ahh!"

Before King Chi Yao could react, Ning Fan's ghostlike figure had already appeared in front of him. Ning Fan raised one of his hands and smacked King Chi Yao's head. That attack turned his entire physical body into meat chunks and a mist of blood.

As for King Chi Yao's primordial spirit, Ning Fan casually grabbed it with his hand. Without even bothering to search his soul and memories, he directly tossed him into his mouth and chewed him to pieces before swallowing him down his throat.

*Hiss*

The hundreds of thousands of cultivators who witnessed that scene sucked in a cold breath, feeling chills running down their spines. It struck terror deep into the hearts of everyone.

It had only been seconds since Ning Fan appeared and he had already killed two Void Refinement Realm experts successively!?

King Lan Ling's eyes widened in shock once more. If he were the one who fought King Chi Yao and Marquis Nan Man, he definitely would not be able to kill them as easily as Ning Fan did!

"Impossible! Could this ant have greater strength than me?!"

At the same time, the voices of a few Void Refinement Realm experts were heard from different directions around the jade platform. All of them were berating Ning Fan for his actions.

"You wild brazen devil! How dare you kill our people in front of our one hundred sects?! You're definitely courting death!"

Inside the large cage, Feng Xueyan who was helplessly sitting on her heels on the ground raised her head and opened her eyes. She was surprised to see her father was still alive. When Ning Fan appeared outside her cage, she felt a lump in her throat and tears began falling down her face. She was deeply touched.

It's my brother-in-law…

He had really showed up. Even though he knew that he would have to fight against the experts of more than a hundred sects, he still showed up without hesitation.

"What are you crying for? I'm here. From now on, no one will be able to harm you."

*Bang*

Ning Fan raised his hand and smashed the large cage to pieces. He held Feng Xueyan with one of his arms and stood in midair. His eyes coldly scanned across the experts below him.

"I'm right here. Who dares to fight me?!"
