Chapter 509: Striking Awe Into One Hundred Sects (3)


Ning Fan's cold and earth-shattering voice reverberated across the Northern Cold Country!


The meaning of his words clearly expressed his desire to fight against more than one hundred sects with his own strength!


At this moment, countless cultivators were overwhelmed with shock. The entire area was deathly silent because of Ning Fan's wild and arrogant words. Everyone was also taken aback because of Ning Fan's strength that could kill Void Refinement Realm experts without pause!


Suddenly, Xu Qiuling's beautiful eyes moistened with tears. They contained indescribable emotions…


Even though he knew that there are over one hundred sects here, he still rushed to our aid…


The lord of the Nirvana Valley suddenly rose to his feet. The way he looked at Ning Fan was full of amazement.


He was a body cultivator who was at the lofty Second Level of the Golden Body Refining Realm. However, from just briefly meeting Ning Fan's eyes, he suddenly felt that the golden blood in his five hundred plus golden orifices were going out of control!


He only experienced this once before when he faced an old monster at the First level of the Nirvana Body Refining Realm in the past.


He was very certain that Ning Fan's body refining realm had yet to advance to the Third Level of the Golden Body Refining Realm. However, his body refining aura force was much stronger than that of the old monster who was at the Nirvana Body Refining Realm!


"Ancient Devil?! This man is actually an ancient devil!!?"


The lord of the Nirvana Valley's voice spread throughout the area, surprising everyone. It was beyond their expectations for an ancient devil to still exist in the current cultivation world!


It was not only limited to the lord of the Nirvana Valley. The sect master of the Yang Heaven Palace also stood up and stared at Ning Fan in disbelief.


Common cultivators who look at Ning Fan with their naked eyes and spirit sense would only see him as a cultivator.


As for the sect master of the Yang Heaven Palace, however, he was a Peak Grade Fifth Revolution Pill Refinement Master. When he studied Ning Fan using his medicine soul, he felt that Ning Fan was no longer a single person but millions of dark butterflies instead!


He was shocked by that discovery. He obviously knew what those butterflies represented! They meant that Ning Fan's medicine soul had taken a new form and this implied that he was a genuine Sixth Revolution Pill Refinement Master!


"This Zhou Ming has really attained the Sixth Revolution Pill Refinement Realm! He has really become the eighth Sixth Revolution Pill Refinement Master of the Rain World!"


The words that the sect master of the Yang Heaven Palace spoke filled everyone with shock once more. Everyone was fully aware of how important a Sixth Revolution Pill Refinement Master was as their status was nearly comparable to a Void Fragmentation Realm expert in the Rain World!


The vice sect master of the Martial Sect stared at Ning Fan from afar. The only feeling he had right now was fear and anxiety. According to the message from the message-transmitting flying sword he received from his sect master, Marquis Wu Mu, the person whom they must never offend was none other than Ning Fan!


Marquis Wu Mu might have a perverse personality and liked to use his seniority as an advantage when dealing with others, his foresight was extremely sharp and accurate. His judgement was always correct and what he said was never a lie.


Marquis Wu Mu personally said that Ning Fan was a peerless devil lord but the vice sect master of the Martial Sect only believed half of it at first.


However, after witnessing Ning Fan killing two Void Refinement Realm experts in succession, his heart nearly leapt out of his throat… Ning Fan was definitely an extremely vicious devil lord. Be it background, fortune, fame or power, one of them could make him change his mind!


"Our sect master has orders for us. The Martial Sect must immediately withdraw from the Giant Devil Clan and never offend this man! Presently, this man is deemed as the strongest devil lord of the internal sea. In the future, he certainly will become the strongest devil of the Rain World!"


The vice sect master of the Martial Sect gave an order and several ten thousands of cultivators on the Martial Sect's seats rose to their feet. All of them were going to leave the Giant Devil Clan.


Each of the old monsters around sucked in a cold breath, finding it hard to believe.


Before this, everyone was still complaining why Marquis Wu Mu had yet to arrive after so long. It was only at this moment that they realized that the Marquis Wu Mu who always had an arrogant and haughty bearing was actually scared away by Ning Fan and left the Endless Sea!


Furthermore, the Marquis who was known for his shrewdness had actually made such a comment about Ning Fan: the strongest devil of the internal sea at this moment and the strongest devil of the Rain World in the future!


Ning Fan had just shown himself but the Martial Sect was already leaving the Giant Devil Clan in a hurry, trying to disassociate themselves from the rest of the sects there… Was this the power of the devil prestige of the number-one devil of the internal sea?!


"Oh my god! Zhou Ming is actually an ancient devil. According to some ancient books, ancient devils are the most ferocious cultivators. Cultivators at the same level as them are completely not a match for them!"


"Sixth Revolution Pill Refinement Realm!? He actually is a Sixth Revolution Pill Refinement Master!"


"Marquis Nan Man and King Chi Yao could not even withstand a single move from this man. Apart from that, he literally scared Marquis Wu Mu away from the Endless Sea… Is this how powerful Zhou Ming is, the 'strongest devil of the internal sea'?"


"From what I heard, he has even suppressed the Mist Horn Clan all alone. I didn't believe it at first. However, judging from how it looks now, the rumors are probably true! After all, even Su Yan has become his woman!"


Countless cultivators had also noticed Su Yan and Venerated Pill who were on the ancient golden sword.


Su Yan was a Void Inquiry Stage expert whose name was known far and wide in the Rain World. Venerated Pill, on the other hand, was a renowned Sixth Revolution Pill Refinement Master.


Since Su Yan and Venerated Pill were on Ning Fan's side, he became even more powerful and significant!


All of a sudden, everyone had different thoughts in their mind and no one dared to snatch Feng Xueyan from Ning Fan.


Even Marquis You Gui and King Lan Ling who were well-versed in schemes and deep foresight did not make the decision to take the lead and attack Ning Fan.


"Is there no one to accept my challenge…?"


The somber and desolate snow fell even more harshly. With an icy cold expression, Ning Fan descended on the ruins and placed Feng Xueyan down. Then, he looked around vigilantly.


Even though he was bold enough to challenge the one hundred plus sects on his own, he never underestimated their strength.


Countless tall platforms and seats were built around the area. Within the vicinity of nearly one thousand li (500m per li), over one million and four hundred thousand cultivators were sitting around the jade platform.


The seats were divided into three classes. The main seats were only provided for the eleven Void Refinement Realm sects, the second-class seats were for the Divine Transformation Realm forces while the third-class seats were mostly for some rogue cultivators.


Ning Fan raised his head and scanned across the flags of the eleven Void Refinement Realm sects. Inwardly, he was slightly surprised.


Every single one of the eleven sects were prominent forces of the Rain World!


In the west of the main seats, there were three Void Refinement Realm forces – the Lan Ling Sect, the Six Flames Sect and the Yang Heaven Palace.


For the Six Flames Sect, only its Void Glimpse Stage sect master came to the Giant Devil Clan. He was none other than the serpent-eyed elderly man who was presiding over the battles. Similarly, only the palace lord of the Yang Heaven Palace who was a Void Refinement Realm expert came on behalf of his force. As for the Lan Ling Sect… other than King Lan Ling's second primordial spirit, there was also a Void Pierce Stage elder who was standing proudly at his seat.


In the north of the main seats, there were the Ice Mountain Sword Sect, the Wonderful Sound Valley and the Hanging Temple. All of them were established forces of the Rain World. The sect masters of the three sects were all Void Inquiry Stage experts and every one of them had cultivated to the peak of the Void Inquiry Stage. Each of them was not any weaker than Ning Fan.


The southern part of the main seats was occupied by the Martial Sect, the Barbarian Dao Sect, the Scarlet Demon Sect and the Nirvana Valley.


As Marquis Nan Man and King Chi Lao had tragically died, the Barbarian Dao Sect and the Scarlet Demon Sect had lost their leaders. Therefore, Ning Fan did not have to worry about them anymore. Meanwhile, the Martial Sect already had the intention to withdraw. The only thing he had to pay attention to was the Nirvana Valley. Since the master of the Nirvana Valley could identify his ancient devil cultivation at first glance, he must be somewhat extraordinary…


The eastern part of the main seats was only occupied by one force which had the largest strength of all the eleven forces. It was none other than the Ghost Eye Clan!


There were eight Void Refinement Realm experts standing behind Marquis You Gui. Six of them were at the Void Glimpse Stage while the other two of them were at the Void Inquiry Stage.


Moreover, Marquis You Gui's aura force had actually exceeded the Void Pierce Stage and reached the Absolute Void Stage… Ning Fan could still recall that when he sneaked into the Ghost Eye Clan, Marquis You Gui was still at the Void Pierce Stage…


Without a doubt, Marquis You Gui must have devoured his nine divided Void Glimpse Stage primordial spirits which allowed him to recover his Absolute Void Stage strength.


Since there was an Absolute Void Stage expert, it would probably be quite dangerous for him to fight the one hundred plus sects today.


Ning Fan's cultivation base was just at the Mid Reckless Devil Realm which allowed him to be unrivalled among Void Inquiry Stage experts. However, it was difficult for him to fight experts at the Void Pierce Stage, much less old monsters at the Absolute Void Stage.


The eleven Void Refinement Realm sects had a myriad of experts. Aside from that, there were one hundred plus Divine Transformation Realm sects lying in wait for an opportunity and over one million cultivators surrounding them… At a dark corner, there were also the eight ancestors of the Giant Devil Clan who were watching by the sidelines. Who knows whether or not they would stab him in the back?!


The only thing which made Ning Fan happy was that the Zhou Clan of the internal sea did not participate in pressuring the Giant Devil Clan.


Ning Fan's eyes flashed faintly. It would be as difficult as ascending Heaven to fight the one hundred sects all on his own… Even if he possessed 18 Void Fragmentation Realm strikes and had Luo You's help, he might not necessarily be able to escape unscathed… Apart from that, Marquis You Gui was a Void Fragmentation Realm expert before he was injured and King Lan Ling's true body was also an expert who was about to achieve the Void Fragmentation Realm. Who knows whether or not these two individuals had a Void Fragmentation Realm stored attack to protect themselves…?


This time, there were huge risks in rescuing the Giant Devil Clan. Ning Fan had never calculated them and was also too lazy to do so.


So what if the risks were high and his enemies were innumerable… How could he compromise?


Handing Feng Xueyan over to the one hundred sects? No. He could never do it!


He left Feng Xueyan to the three venerated beings and asked them to bring her away from the platform and join Xu Qiuling and the rest. Then, Venerated Pill, Su Yan, Ming Que and the others would be responsible for protecting her.


Afterwards, Ning Fan stretched his five fingers and clawed at the earth. Immediately, the jade platform which was formerly in ruins was rebuilt.


Ning Fan stood alone on the ten thousand zhang* (3.33m per zhang) tall jade platform while bathing himself in snow and wind. He shifted his gaze to the numerous experts below. Inwardly, he already had the intention to fight to his death.


He could forgive the Martial Sect which had retreated in advance.


However, to those stubborn groups who insisted on harming Feng Xueyan, he would never let any of them go.


Even if he had to wipe out the one hundred plus sects or flatten the Giant Devil Clan, he would keep Feng Xueyan safe!


Feng Xueyan's eyes were filled with tears again… When all of her family and relatives abandoned her, only Ning Fan went against the world and vowed to protect her…


The several ten thousands of cultivators of the Martial Sect hurriedly retreated and left this den of fights and conflicts.


However, there were still one hundred plus sects which remained. Even though they were afraid of Ning Fan, they were aware that they outnumbered him and planned to use that advantage to suppress and pressure him into giving up Feng Xueyan.


Just a sect alone might not have the courage to offend Ning Fan since he was an ancient devil as well as a Sixth Revolution Pill Refinement Master. An ordinary person would be reluctant to mess with him.


However, there was a saying which goes, men die in pursuit of wealth and birds die in pursuit of food. According to rumors, if one were to get Feng Xueyan and the devil statue slate to decipher the ancient scripture of the slate, they would obtain great power!


For this benefit, no matter how fearful they were, they were unwilling to miss this opportunity to seize treasures!


"Zhou Ming! You are strong. However, you should understand that you won't be able to resist against us all with just your own strength!"


"There are over one hundred sects on our side which involve nearly one-third of the first-rate forces of the Rain World. If you go against us, you are going against the entire Rain World!"


"I heard that there are orders from the Rain Sovereign which forbid anyone from hurting you. But on this occasion, you challenged us first. If you still show no awareness of the current circumstances and don't act accordingly, don't blame us for being merciless!"


Ning Fan suddenly flicked his sleeve and a blood-red paper umbrella appeared in his hands.


An island fell down from the sky as he opened his umbrella. It was an island which he took out from the umbrella world. The large island shielded the sun and was going to crash onto half of the Northern Cold Country!


When he closed the umbrella, several hundreds of Nascent Soul Realm and Divine Transformation Realm cultivators who were taunting Ning Fan got dragged into the umbrella by the light red halos.


When Ning Fan continued to shake the umbrella, it poured out pus and blood all over the ground. They belonged to the cultivators who were taken into the umbrella just now… That umbrella was really powerful. All it takes is an instant to kill Nascent Soul Realm and Divine Transformation Realm cultivators!


As for the island that was falling from the sky, it stunned the hundreds of thousands of cultivators!


This island was nearly half the size of the Northern Cold Country. If it falls down, half of the Northern Cold Island would sink!


Besides, some of the cultivators from the internal sea recognized that the island Ning Fan casually tossed out was actually the Pill Island!


Of course, Ning Fan did not plan on using the island to crush the people here. Since there were so many Void Refinement Realm experts there, this trick would never work.


"We must not let this island fall down. Otherwise, our cultivators are going to suffer huge casualties. All my Void Refinement Realm daoists, let's display the levitation technique to make this island float in the sky!"


"Alright. Let's act together!"


Including Marquis You Gui, all the Void Refinement Realm experts from different sects soared into the sky with solemn expressions to use the levitation technique in order to stop the Pill Island from falling. They wanted to make it float ten thousand zhang* (3.33m per zhang) above the Northern Cold Country.


Even so, these Void Refinement Realm experts could not believe that Ning Fan's blood umbrella would actually be so powerful. It could actually keep an island and throw it down from the sky…


The Pill Island did not crash onto the Northern Cold Country in the end. Otherwise, it would cause massive casualties to the people in the country.


Many low-level cultivators broke out in cold sweat. All of them felt lucky as the Pill Island was stopped. Otherwise, they would have died for sure.


As for the cultivators of the Giant Devil Clan, many of them were also terrified.


The eyes of every cultivator contained an inexpressible fear as they looked toward Ning Fan.


This man is a madman! A madman who is bold enough to crash an island into another island!


There were also some people who noticed that the blood umbrella which Ning Fan was holding was a small chiliocosm cosmos treasure and its destructive power was far beyond that of common cosmos treasures!


"Today, everyone here has witnessed that Zhou Ming treats our one hundred plus sects as if we are nothing. He really is extremely wild and arrogant! I, the second elder of the Ghost Eye Clan, have to teach this Zhou Ming a lesson!"


A Void Inquiry Stage elderly expert from the Ghost Eye Clan flew to the jade platform and stood there with his hands clasped behind his back. His white hair was dancing gently in the air. The aura force he emanated was remarkable.


He smirked at Ning Fan and then raised one of his palms which had a green ghost eye on its center. The ghost eye suddenly shot out endless green electric arcs.


Tens of millions of green electric arcs formed into a sea of lightning. The elderly man stood in the middle of it as if he was the king of lightning.


"It's Yin Lei, the second elder of the Ghost Eye Clan! This person has superb lightning techniques. From what I've heard, he has even cultivated his primordial spirit into lightning form and rarely has an opponent among Void Inquiry Stage experts. He is several times stronger than King Chi Yao. That Zhou Ming might have heaven-defying abilities, but he is just a 'Void Inquiry Stage' cultivator after all. How can he be a match for Elder Yin Lei?!"


In the Ghost Eye Clan, countless cultivators raised their arms into the air and cheered.


"Zhou Ming, if you retreat right now, I'll spare your life. Otherwise, I will turn you to ashes!" Elder Yin Lei sneered while secretly making hand seals under his sleeves.


Without warning, the sky behind Ning Fan suddenly broke apart as countless dark green lightning snakes pounced at his back with their mouths open.


While Yin Lei was talking to Ning Fan, he actually tried to sneak attack him!


Yin Lei might be talking about fighting for the sake of all the sects here, but his actual intention was to kill Ning Fan and seize his treasure because he had set his eyes upon his blood umbrella.


The Tai Su Lightning Star on Ning Fan's glabella flashed and a massive blood-red lightning diagram emerged beneath his feet.


With just a stomp, heaven and earth shook and the snow flew against the heavens. The lightning snakes behind him broke apart one after another. An immense lightning aura force then spread out from his body. Nothing could stop it.


Yin Lei's expression changed greatly. The green lightning sea which he was standing upon scattered under Ning Fan's aura force!


In the start, he was like the king of lightning in everyone's eyes when he stood in the middle of the sea of lightning.


However, in front of Ning Fan's lightning diagram, all of his lightning power became stagnant, making it difficult for him to make use of it!


Yin Lei's eyes widened in surprise. Even Lightning Sovereign Bu Zhou would not be able to destroy his lightning sea by just uttering a single word!


He quickly made a series of hand seals to summon a flying sword created from lightning. Then, he saw Ning Fan walk toward him while stepping on the lightning diagram.


On the first step, all lightning power was eliminated and the lightning sword disintegrated!


On the third step, Yin Lei spurted out blood from his mouth and moved backward for several steps!


On the ninth step, Yin Lei felt a sharp pain in his dantian. His lightning primordial spirit had been literally split into two halves!


Blood violently gushed out from his mouth as terror filled his eyes. All of his lightning techniques including his lightning primordial spirit were completely restrained by Ning Fan!


On the tenth step, the Eight Black Burning Wings appeared on Ning Fan's back and he vanished instantly.


Yin Lei turned around, trying to flee for his life. However, just as he turned to his back, he bumped into Ning Fan who emerged in front of him like a ghost!


"I'll fight you to the death!" Yin Lei poked his own eyes with two fingers and dug them out. Blood flowed out.


After sacrificing his own eyes, his aura force was greatly boosted, making him on par with a Peak Void Inquiry Stage expert.


The two eyeballs in his hands seemed to have become a set of supreme magic treasures.


He locked his spirit sense unto Ning Fan and cast his eyeballs into the air. All of a sudden, darkness fell upon the jade platform, covering the entire ten thousand zhang* tall jade platform. This darkness would temporarily impair one's vision and spirit sense. Without hesitation, Yin Lei hurriedly ran away.


"Where are you trying to go?!"


Ning Fan had the Fu Li Eye in his left eye, Mo Luo Eye in his right eye and the Human Eye on his glabella. How could Yin Lei's insignificant trick impair his vision?


After determining the direction where Yin Lei was running to, Ning Fan flapped his eight wings and dashed to his back. He raised his hands and slammed it on Yin Lei's head.


After a loud bang, the darkness on the jade platform gradually disappeared. The snow and wind became normal again and the atmosphere turned quiet.


In utter silence, Ning Fan was walking on Yin Lei's corpse. He held his primordial spirit and swallowed it down his throat. Then, he shifted his cold eyes to the Ghost Eye Clan.


This time, he had really offended the Ghost Eye Clan… But so what?!


Marquis You Gui flew into a rage and leapt into the sky with a gloomy expression. His tremendous aura force rushed toward Ning Fan. He actually wanted to fight Ning Fan to vent out his anger.


Ning Fan's eyes flashed with cold light. He immediately took out a jade slip.


When he cracked the jade slip, a powerful magic attack was fired at the approaching Marquis You Gui with countless devil scripture chants!


As soon as Marquis You Gui who was swollen with arrogance a moment ago saw the incoming attack, his face turned pale and turned around to flee with his scalp tingling. He no longer cared about Ning Fan. All he could think of right at this moment was to run for his life!


The moment when Ning Fan used the jade slip, countless cultivators were petrified!


The expressions of each of the old monsters looked horrified and bewildered.


"A-A Void Fragmentation Realm attack!?"
