It took Ning Fan three days to hunt down the Vine Emperor.
Although Emperor Teng was seriously injured, his magical powers were astonishing despite his desperate efforts, causing serious injuries to Ning Fan and Nie Li.
When the Vine Emperor finally escaped, his broken body broke into more than ten streams of light and escaped, but Ning Fan killed them one by one, spending a lot of time chasing them down.
Three days later, Ning Fan returned along the boundary road. On the way here, the boundary gate had already been closed.
Ning Fan spent another half month using the magical power of the Wind and Smoke Technique to open a gap in the boundary.
Only then did he return to Dong Shuhai.
In this catastrophe, countless monks died in Dongshuhai. In addition to the 10 million monks who were reduced to living puppets and died unexpectedly, there were also 60 to 70 million monks who died in the chaos.
If Ning Fan hadn't killed Wan Changkong in time and turned all living creatures into ashes, the number of casualties in Dong Shuhai would have been even greater.
The vitality of Dongshu Zhuhai was severely damaged, and the vitality of Xishu Tenghai was also severely damaged.
Except for the Bamboo Emperor, all the Suixu monks in the Bamboo Palace died in this catastrophe. Teng Dian Suixu, including Teng Huang, all died in the disaster.
Even Liu Dian Suixu died in vain...
More than half a month has passed, and Jishui City, which was destroyed by the war, has been rebuilt. Many of the tree tribe monks in the city were dressed in plain white clothes, in memory of their relatives and friends who died in the tragedy.
Ning Fan did not return to Jishui with his purple eyes. Purple-eyed Nieli was seriously injured and was taken into the Cauldron Realm by Ning Fan to recuperate...Ning Fan belatedly discovered that Purple-eyed Nieli was actually his mother's...
Dressed in white, he returned to Jishui City alone. As soon as Fang entered the city, he was immediately welcomed out of the city by an elder Liu Dian of the Broken One Realm.
"Elder Liu Dian Xiu Tan, welcome the North Tree Emperor!" Elder Liu Dian named Xiu Tan respectfully clasped his fists at Ning Fan.
"Beishu Emperor? What do you mean by this?" Ning Fan was slightly startled, but he didn't know when he got this title.
Seeing the confusion on Ning Fan's face, Xiu Tan immediately explained.
From the time Ning Fan chased the Vine Emperor to returning to the tree world, it took a total of eighteen days.
Ning Fan had already killed the Vine Emperor three days ago. At the same time, the Vine Emperor's life card in the tree realm was shattered.
The news of the death of the Vine Emperor spread wildly, and the entire tree world was aware of the death of the Vine Emperor.
Tens of thousands of monks witnessed Ning Fan's pursuit of the Vine Emperor on his way into the world. If anyone inquired, they would easily find out that the person who killed the Vine Emperor was Ning Fan.
Ning Fan's alias in the tree world was Lu Bei, and the title of Bei Shuhuang was derived from the word "Lu Bei".
Since Ning Fan chased into the boundary road, Liu Haoyue has been waiting outside the boundary road, worrying about Ning Fan's safety.
It was not until he learned the news of the death of the Vine Emperor that he was convinced that Ning Fan had succeeded in killing the Vine Emperor and would return to the tree world soon, feeling relieved.
So he no longer stayed in the East Shuhai, leaving only a few Liudian elders to guard the East Shuhai, but he took the Bamboo Emperor and other subordinates to the West Shuhai, wiped out the Tenghuang's forces, and took over the Tengdian.
The Vine Emperor is dead, and the countless generations of Vine Palace will naturally change hands.
Liu Haoyue and the Bamboo Emperor specially left a message jade slip and ordered Xiu Tan to give it to Ning Fan.
Ning Fan immersed his spiritual thoughts into the sound transmission jade slip, and the voices of the Bamboo and Willow Emperors were immediately transmitted into his sea of consciousness.
"If Brother Lu comes back, please come to Xishuhai as soon as possible. There are many natural and earthly treasures in Teng Palace... Without Brother Lu's help, the two of us will die at the hands of Teng Gunan this time, and hundreds of people in Teng Palace will Everything stored on behalf of you should belong to Brother Lu!"
"Furthermore, there will be no emperor in the west tree sea and no tree king in the north tree sea. If Brother Lu is willing, from now on, brother Lu will be the tree king of the two tree seas in the west and north. Because there is exactly one in his name The word 'north' means the king of trees in the north, how about that?"
Ning Fan finished looking at the jade slip and put it away without saying much.
Xiu Tan still has some secular affairs to deal with, so after delivering the jade, he will leave first.
Ning Fan entered the city alone, his mind was racing, and he felt a little sad in his heart.
When I first entered Jishui City, there were so many monks in the city, and monks were constantly coming and going on the long street.
At this moment, monk Jishui was on the 10th of his death, and there were no people on the long street.
Two different atmospheres, but two completely different Taoist charms.
"This is...the rhythm of life and death...life and death. Once you are able to overcome life and death, you will be qualified to seek the path to immortality and live forever..."
"What is life and what is death... I used to know that before life is over, life is life, and when life is over is death, but now it seems that this view is not correct."
"Immortals have no lifespan, so judging life and death based on lifespan is obviously one-sided."
"Life and death, life and death... When the long street is full of people, the long street is alive; when the buildings are empty, the long street is death. For the long street, death is not the end of life, but the end of life. It’s related to the constant flow of pedestrians. I don’t know what the true meaning of life and death is..."
Ning Fan had many thoughts and feelings in his heart. During this Dongshuhai catastrophe, he watched countless people die. He felt different from killing people with his own hands before, and he had a new understanding of life and death.
Understanding the way of life and death is the key to becoming an immortal. It is not surprising that Ning Fan cannot see through life and death now.
Understanding the way of life and death is something that Broken Void Monk needs to consider.
Ning Fanshang is just a Taixu monk. What he needs to understand now is how to break the void...
Step by step, he realized the void by peering into the void, asking about the void, overcoming the void, and reaching perfection. However, after reaching perfection, he needed to break the circle and jump out of the void.
"Shatter the void, break the void... There is nothing in the void, how to break it... how to break the void!"
Ning Fan sighed sadly, he was still far away from the Shattering Void realm.
He had a feeling that the more advanced his realm, the more ignorant he felt.
When he opened his pulse, he had obtained the first-level inheritance of the Heavenly Dao of the ancient land, and thought that he could be superior to the Shattering Void monks.
Looking back on the past now, Ning Fan feels that he was a little arrogant in the past.
He slowly stopped his steps, flicked his sleeves, and a piece of white paper slowly appeared in his palm.
There was no ink on his fingertips, so he drew on the white paper and drew an ink circle.
The avenue is like a white paper, and the monks are like circles on the paper.
The smaller the circle, the less ground the edges touch.
The larger the circle, the more places the edges touch.
The lower the cultivation level, the shallower the Tao you see.
The higher your cultivation level, the more profound you will see the Tao, and the more ignorant you will feel.
It is much wiser to understand that you are ignorant than to think that you know everything.
Ning Fan looked at the circle on the paper. He knew that if he wanted to break the void, it was the circle and the void...
As soon as he pointed it out, the white paper turned into flying ash and disappeared, as if it had never existed.
Ning Fan watched the paper dust drift away, as if he had understood something, but he could not fully understand it.
He no longer thought about these enlightenment issues, but reflected on his trip to the tree world.
This time he entered the tree world, and he gained a lot of benefits.
The first level of Yu Yi is just around the corner. He has developed a small Five Elements physique, and if he swallows the Ancestral Bamboo, his Wood Elements physique is likely to be completely perfected in one fell swoop.
His cultivation level has broken through to the Taixu realm. If he can empty out all the savings of a hundred generations in Teng Palace and use the countless treasures of heaven and earth to improve his cultivation level, his cultivation level will definitely skyrocket again.
He cultivated the bloodline of the ancient gods of the royal family and opened up the first heart orifice of the ancient gods. The speed of his body will definitely increase greatly in the future.
When he came to the tree world this time, Ning Fan also fulfilled Mu Luo's request, found the people of the Ming Luo tribe, and avenged his great revenge by killing Wan Changkong for the Ming Luo tribe. It would be a good thing if we could bring the Mingluo tribe and the remaining souls of Youhuang back to the Rain Realm.
This time in the tree world, Ning Fan even subdued a Nie Li who was in the Fifth Realm of Shattering, subdued 600 Wenxu puppets, the number of Heavenly Tribulation puppets increased to five, and even more Teng Xianrou, the Broken Xu thug...
Now Ning Fan's combat power is probably stronger than that of the entire Yudian.
Not only that, after Ning Fan killed Wan Changkong, he also obtained the Mourning Ancient Tongtian Jade. A puppet thread of Mourning Ancestor was sealed in the ancient jade.
If this puppet string can be used to refine scattered demons into living puppets in one fell swoop, Ning Fan will have one more thug from the eighth level of Shattering Void by his side!
"With my current wealth, it is not difficult to fight against Emperor Nirvana! As soon as the hundred years comes and the ancient heaven opens, Emperor Nirvana will definitely die!"
After entering the tree world, Ning Fan got a great opportunity, but he also provoked a powerful enemy.
He killed Du Yu and sinned against Teng Palace. Now that Teng Palace has been destroyed, the Three Realms Sect behind Teng Palace must hate him!
"The leader of the Three Realms Sect is an old monster from the Eighth Level of Shattering Void. If I can successfully control the scattered demons, I can fight with this person, so I won't be afraid of the Three Realms Sect! If I can't, I won't be able to compete with the Three Realms Sect..."
"With my current Taixu cultivation level, even if I have a puppet thread from Ancestor Mourning, the chance of refining loose demons to make living puppets is less than 50%. If my cultivation level can go further, reach the realm of Guiyuan, and conquer the loose demons The chance is at least 90%!"
"It's not difficult to return to the Yuan Dynasty! I won't stay in the tree world for long. I don't need the title of North Tree Emperor, and I don't want to rule the West Tree Sea and the North Tree Sea. But I will definitely take the hundred generations of savings from the Vine Palace. Taken away. With the accumulation of hundreds of generations in the Teng Palace, it will pave the way back to the origin for me. Then, after conquering the scattered demons in one fell swoop, the Three Realms Sect will no longer have anything to fear!"
"Let's put aside the matters of the Three Realms Sect for the time being. There is some trouble in the Rain Realm... and in the Demon Realm. I wonder what the Nirvana Emperor will do when he learns that I killed the Vine Emperor..."
Ning Fan sighed. From the moment he surrendered to Nieli and appeared above Jishui, he was destined to be unable to remain anonymous in the tree world.
The fact that he surrendered to Sui Wu Nieli was enough to make him famous in the nine realms and attract the attention of Sui Xu in the world.
The matter of killing the Vine Emperor cannot be hidden from the monks all over the world. The death of the God Emperor of the Nine Realms is a big event. Even if the God Emperor of the Lower Three Realms dies, many monks from the Nine Realms will pay attention to it.
I am afraid that now, the news of the death of the Vine Emperor has spread throughout the Nine Realms.
And the initiator of killing the Vine Emperor, Ning Fan, must have been exposed to the eyes of the world.
Some interested people may have found out that Ning Fan is not Lu Bei, but the Su Yihou of the Rain Realm.
I wonder what the Rain Emperor of the Rain Realm would think if he knew about Ning Fan's shocking achievements. Will he be afraid of Ning Fan and make friends with him, or will he hate Ning Fan and turn against him...
This time, the battle in the tree world was too big, and it directly pushed Ning Fan to the forefront.
From now on, I don’t know how much trouble will come one after another...
Unknowingly, Ning Fan had walked outside the Fusang clan's mansion.
He stopped his steps, and with a flash of light, he appeared directly in the main hall of the mansion.
Fusang clan leader Tang Xiong was discussing matters with several Fusang elders, and everyone looked worried.
Upon seeing Ning Fan's sudden arrival, everyone immediately stood up to greet him without any hesitation.
Ning Fan killed the Vine Emperor, killed Wan Changkong, and even killed countless Suixu during the Jishui battle. His reputation as the "Northern Tree Emperor" had already spread throughout the Tree Realm, and even to several other realms.
Although Ning Fan is just a Taixu cultivator, in the eyes of the Fusang clansmen, there is no difference between Ning Fan and a God Emperor who has shattered the fifth heaven.
"We, the Fusang tribe members, have seen Emperor Beishu, but we don't know why Emperor Beishu came here today!" Tang Xiong said respectfully.
"I owe Senior Fuso a favor. I came here today just to send Senior Fuso's ashes back. That's all..."
"What, the ashes of the ancestor! This, this..."
Tang Xiong and other Fusang tribesmen looked sad and excited.
The sadness comes from remembering the past of the ancestor's death, and the excitement comes from the fact that the ashes of the ancestor have been recovered, so that the ancestor's body will not be scattered outside.
Ning Fan pointed his finger, and an exquisite jade box immediately appeared on the bamboo table in the middle of the hall.
The jade box contained the ashes of Old Demon Fusang, and there was a faint aura of Old Demon Fusang in the ashes...
"Ancestor!"
Tang Xiong and several other old men had wet eyes and knelt down to the jade box.
"Farewell!"
Ning Fan sighed lightly, turned and left. He sent back the ashes of Old Demon Fusang, and he and the Fusang clan no longer owed anything to each other.
Tuogu, who had promised Tang Xiong before, agreed to help Tang Xiong take care of Tang Yuan because Tang Xiong was likely to die in this catastrophe.
Now, due to his intervention, Tang Xiong is still alive and Fusang is still alive. There is no reason or necessity for him to accept Tang Yuan as his concubine.
"Emperor Beishu, stay here..." Tang Xiong wanted to call Ning Fan, but Ning Fan walked further and further away and soon disappeared.
Tang Xiong sighed slightly. To be honest, he was reluctant to give his daughter to Ning Fan as his concubine before he died.
Ning Fan refused to accept Tang Yuan as his concubine, which made him feel happy and regretful at the same time.
I am happy that I can choose another suitable Taoist companion for my daughter.
It's a pity that I lost the opportunity to marry Ning Fan. For the declining Fusang tribe, Ning Fan's reputation can be said to be a protective umbrella...
"Come on, Yuan'er, please come out. Since you have no chance to meet Beishu Emperor, my father will find another suitable Taoist companion for you in the future." Tang Xiong said towards the inner door of the hall.
"No! I don't want a Taoist companion, and I won't marry anyone!" Behind the beaded curtain at the inner door, a girl in red stamped her feet angrily, then turned and ran away.
She is Tang Yuan, the little princess of the Fusang tribe who has repeatedly provoked Ning Fan without thinking.
She doesn't have to be promised to Ning Fan as his concubine by her father, which is obviously a good thing.
She obviously hated Ning Fan and didn't want to marry him, but at this moment, when she peeked at Ning Fan's back as he turned away, she suddenly felt a little sad.
She had a feeling that once Ning Fan left, he would settle his grudges with the Fusang clan and never return.
Goodbye forever, just miss it...
"He never liked me... If I had been more sensible before, he wouldn't have hated me so much..."
Tang Yuan was sitting in her boudoir, feeling very blocked in her heart.
One day later, the Fuso clan buried their ancestor's ashes in the imperial mausoleum of Makino Kingdom.
Here are the broken tombs of various bamboo emperors and bamboo palaces of all dynasties, but no one has ever buried the ashes of monks.
Tang Yuanzhang knelt in front of Fusang Yao's tomb, his eyes turned into peaches from crying.
After all the Fusang tribesmen finished paying their respects, they walked out of the imperial mausoleum and waited outside. Only Tang Yuan was the only one who refused to leave.
The old demon Fuso was her grandfather, and he always doted on her, so much so that he turned her into a unruly and willful character.
From now on, she no longer has her grandfather's pampering. From now on, she needs to gradually learn to be sensible, learn not to be willful, and learn to take on the responsibilities entrusted to her by her family.
I don't know when, a young man in white suddenly appeared in the imperial mausoleum and in front of the tomb of the old demon Fusang.
When Tang Yuan seemed to notice it, he turned around and saw the young man's face. He was immediately startled and said angrily, "I'm going to die! Is it fun to hide behind others and scare people?"
"I have never heard of any Nascent Soul cultivator being scared to death. If Miss Tangyuan could be scared to death by me, I'm afraid it would be enough to become an anecdote in the world of cultivation and leave her name in history." Ning Fan joked.
"Hmph, you're not a good person with a slippery tone!" Tang Yuan cursed in a low voice, but he was secretly happy in his heart, never expecting to see Ning Fan again.
"Oh? Miss Tangyuan hasn't learned your lesson yet, and you still dare to scold me? Aren't you afraid that I will throw you into the lair of the Void Refining Monster?"
"Don't, don't! Master, my dear master, we have something to talk about, so don't use force! A gentleman talks but doesn't fight, and an adult doesn't remember the faults of villains! You must not be as knowledgeable as me, and don't throw me into the den of monsters. ..." Tang Yuan was instantly subdued, showing no restraint at all.
"Interesting. From today on, work hard and break through the spirit transformation and void refining as soon as possible. Next time I come to Dongshuhai, I might really throw you into the lair of the void refining beast. If you If you don’t practice cultivation, you won’t be able to protect yourself.”
Ning Fan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, turned around and left.
He found that Tang Yuan was not without merit, at least she was a filial daughter.
The word filial piety is not used by monks. Among monks, there are very few who know how to be filial to their elders...
Although this woman has an unruly personality, she is much better than many monks. At the very least, she is a 'human being'.
Going down the mountain to become a human being and going up the mountain to become an immortal. If she could do this, she would have a better chance than many monks of seeking the path to immortality.
Ning Fan left Jishui City, left Muye Country, and galloped towards the West Shuhai.
Tang Yuan looked at Ning Fan's departing light, and watched the light gradually disappear into the sky. He felt a little disappointed but also a little hopeful.
"He said he wanted me to work diligently... He said there would be another day when we meet again, and he threw me into the lair of the Void Refining Beast..."
Suddenly, Tang Yuan felt that being thrown into the lair of the Void Refining Beast was no big deal. At least he could see Ning Fan again, right?
"Okay, I will become an ascetic from today on. When we meet again, I will definitely impress you!"
"Master, just wait patiently! My little lady won't let you down!"
...
Ning Fan galloped all the way, crossing from the East Tree Sea to the South Tree Sea, and then from the South Tree Sea to the West Tree Sea.
By the time he arrived at Xi Shuhai, it was already more than a month later.
It took another seven days before he arrived at Vine King City in Xishuhai.
Before entering King Vine City, Liu Haoyue was already welcoming him out of the city.
"Brother Lu is a little slow in coming. Liu has completed the inspection of Tengwang City four days ago. The savings of a hundred generations in Tengwang Palace are now stored in the cave of the inner hall of Vengwang Palace. Brother Lu is willing to go there." look?"
After Liu Haoyue finished speaking, his eyes suddenly turned cold and he sent a message to Ning Fan, "There are still two four-day deacons in the Vine King's palace. These two are responsible for investigating the death of the Vine King. They want to see you by name. Who might be here?" If you are not kind, deal with it carefully!”
"Four Days Butler?!"
Ning Fan's eyes also darkened.
To kill the God-Emperor of the Lower Realm, if it were done in a secretive way, no one would care about it.
If the monks in this world kill each other, no one will care if there is no interface dispute involved.
But if a monk from another world sneaks into another interface and kills the God Emperor of this world, if the four-day steward is not given a reason, the matter will not be settled and he will definitely be held accountable!
If there were no four-day stewards in charge of the lower realms, wouldn't the powerful men from the upper three realms be able to sneak into the lower three realms at will and kill the God Emperors of the lower three realms at will?
The existence of the four-day deacons is to patrol the lower realm and maintain the stability of the lower realm.
First, catch the monks who secretly go to the lower realm, and secondly, prevent the strong realm from bullying the weak realm from happening.
The Three Realms Sect's involvement in the disputes in the Tree Realm is something they need to investigate.
Ning Fan's killing of Emperor Teng was also something they needed to investigate.
If these two four-day deacons find out that Ning Fan is a monk from the Rain Realm, they will probably use the four-day law to take Ning Fan down for questioning.
It must be a serious crime for a monk from the Rain Realm to sneak into the Tree Realm and kill the Vine King of the Tree Realm.
Of course, if there are special reasons, such as undying hatred, Ning Fan may not necessarily be held accountable for killing the Vine Emperor.
"Brother Lu, are you sure you can deal with these two four-day deacons? If necessary, someone Liu will find a way to settle the matter for Brother Lu!" Liu Haoyue asked through a message.
"I'm somewhat sure, but not very sure..." Ning Fan shook his head gently, suddenly focused his eyes and looked towards the Vine King Palace.
He sensed a very familiar aura from the Vine King Palace.
At this moment, he knew one of the two four-day deacons in the Vine King Palace!
"It's actually Senior Wei Xuan!"
Wei Xuan is Lao Mo’s brother!
With Wei Xuan protecting him, maybe there won't be any problems this time...
"I just don't know if the other four-day deacon is an enemy or a friend..." Ning Fan frowned. (To be continued.)
