, wonderful and free of pop-ups! What Ning Fan used was clearly the prize he obtained from the Blood Martial Arena - the Nightmare Dragon Claw!
Seeing that Ning Fan had refined this spiritual equipment in just a few days, he couldn't help but be slightly surprised with his experience in slaying the emperor.
The Nightmare Dragon is not a native species of the Jidan Sanctuary. As far as Tu Huang knows, the Nightmare Dragon seems to be a species in the True World. The Nightmare Dragon in the Jidan Sanctuary is said to be the herb-gathering saint, the Southern Medicine Saint, from somewhere in the true world. Captured from the Demon Realm.
The nightmare dragons in the Extreme Pill Sanctuary only live in the tenth-level ferocious realm continent, and their number is extremely rare. However, any one of them has a cultivation level that is beyond eternity. The Nightmare Dragon is a kind of demonic dragon. It is famous for its hard and sharp scales, horns and armor. The hardness of its scales and horns is comparable to that of ancient star iron, and its sharpness is even higher than that of the same level of ancient star iron. It is a magical weapon. The weapon is even better than the ancient star iron of the same level.
The magic weapon spirit equipment made of nightmare dragon scale horn armor is naturally extremely sharp, but it has a drawback, that is, the demonic energy is too strong, and it is not suitable for use by monks other than the demonic path.
Even a demonic monk would need countless years of hard work to refine and subdue a Nightmare Dragon Magical Equipment.
Even the Ancient Demon, not everyone can successfully refine the Nightmare Dragon Claw within a few days. At least it must be an ancient demon at the level of ancestral blood to easily suppress the overwhelming demonic energy in the claws of the nightmare dragon and quickly subdue it.
Thinking of this, Tu Huang couldn't help but squint her beautiful eyes: Although she knew that Ning Fan was an ancient demon before, she didn't know what level of ancient demon Ning Fan was. , this son Ding Po Tian is just an ancient demon with king blood, but he didn’t expect that this son has such a powerful ancient demon bloodline.
Although the Nightmare Dragon Claw is only the acquired twelve nirvana spiritual equipment, it is after all made from the sharp claws of the Immortal Emperor-level Nightmare Dragon. There may not be many changes in magical power, but in terms of sharpness, looking at the innate magic weapon spiritual equipment, There are few that can stand in the way. Coupled with the attack bonus of the Law of Rain, the attack power is naturally more outstanding. It is not difficult to open a hole in the spiritually corrupt ancient magic soldiers.
Seeing that Ning Fan damaged the giant sword used to examine the zombie demon with one blow, everyone around him screamed in surprise.
Ning Fan was not that surprised. After refining this spiritual equipment, he tested the power of this spiritual equipment in private. He had already expected such an attack effect.
The Nightmare Dragon Claw is not an external spiritual equipment, but is equipped on the bones of Ning Fan's palm, within the skin and flesh. From the outside, you can't see the existence of the Nightmare Dragon claws. You can only see signs of demonization in Ning Fan's left hand. Almost the entire left arm is covered with fine Nightmare Dragon scales, and the veins are exposed under the scales. , the nails on the fingers of his left hand grew to seven inches. Looking from a distance, the cold light flickered, as if they were not nails, but an indestructible sharp blade.
"The first sword..."
After Ning Fan's five fingers pierced the giant sword, Shen Twenty-san still had a numb expression, as if this matter was just a trivial matter in his eyes. With his black and stiff wrist, he only flicked the giant sword lightly, and unimaginable power suddenly spread through the sword body like an angry wave crashing on the shore. In an instant, Ning Fan felt severe pain in the finger bones of his left hand. He was shaken by the huge force and was unable to hold down the giant sword any longer.
He didn't know that in terms of physical strength alone, there was a huge gap between him and Shen Twenty-san. Even though Shen Twenty-three was suppressed in various ways and could not exert his full strength, his strength was still superior to him!
As if it was just a routine matter, Shen Twenty-three struck Ning Fan with his first sword, and then followed it up with his second sword.
It is still an extremely heavy sword. That heaviness is not only due to the weight of the sword and the strength of the person, but also involves a change in the Tao.
Today is the first time Ning Fan has seen this kind of Taoism. With his many years of cultivation experience, he can't tell what kind of Taoism it is. He only feels hazy and chaotic, unable to see clearly. And at this moment, there was no time to think too much. Instead of retreating, he advanced forward. The claws of his left hand were filled with black light, and he slashed upward with five fingers. Five half-moon-shaped black light blades cut out of the air, facing the huge sword that fell in the air.
boom!
A deafening roar came, but it was the result of an evenly matched fight. The five light blades blocked the second sword, leaving five gaps on the edge of Shen Twenty-san's giant sword.
There was even a voice that seemed to come directly from the depths of Ning Fan's soul.
"My fellow race...give me...relief..."
"I...repay you with the remains of my corpse and blood..."
"Give me...relief..."
"You are...the Lord of the Demon Sealed Peak...I can...feel..."
"Give me...Demon Burial..."
Demonic burial, what demonic burial?
The Lord of Demonic Sealing Peak? What's the meaning?
Ning Fan felt very strange at this moment. He discovered that this sound deep in the soul was generated based on the resonance between the bloodlines of the two ancient demons.
The person who spoke was undoubtedly the ancient demon senior who had been dead for an unknown number of years. He seemed to have some kind of magical power. He retained a trace of magical power in the demon blood of his corpse to convey his last words.
No one else could hear it, only he, the ancient demon, could hear it.
Before Ning Fan had time to think about it, the third sword came again, and Ning Fan had to brace himself to catch the third sword.
Connecting three swords is not a big deal, but leaving damage to the ancient demon soldiers one after another is really scary.
Naturally, there were exclamations all around. Of course, in addition to the exclamations, there were also some doubts. You must know that this trial of strength does not allow the use of magic to block the giant sword. The doubters thought that Ning Fan used means other than physical strength to participate in the trial. However, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Ning Fan used It's just a spiritual equipment that amplifies physical attacks. The reason why it slashes through the air is not because it consumes mana, but the legendary ancient demon essence.
It does not violate the trial rules.
The collision of powers between Ning Fan and Shen Ersan is still going on!
The fourth sword, the fifth sword...the fourteenth sword, Ning Fan's forehead began to break out into thin sweat, but it was quickly washed away by the rain. Forcing him to receive Shen Ersan's slashing blow was very costly for him, who was only a Nine Nirvana Heavenly Demon. As for Shen Twenty-san, although he did not look tired at all, there were more and more gaps on the giant sword. Unfortunately, he was not very intelligent and obviously did not realize this, so he was still swinging the sword.
What Ning Fan couldn't understand was that every time Shen Twenty-san struck a sword, he would ask Ning Fan for a demonic burial in the form of soul sounds.
"Fellow clan...why...don't you...give me...a demon burial..."
"Lord of the Demon-Sealed Peak...why...don't you...give me...relief..."
"I want...Demon Burial..."
What is the Demonic Burial? How does Ning Fan know?
The fifteenth sword, the sixteenth sword...the forty-second sword. Ning Fan understood that these forty-two swords were the limit of his physical strength. The ancient demon's energy was not inexhaustible. At this moment, He had almost exhausted all his energy in the forty-two rounds of fighting.
This Shen Twenty-san is really strong. Hong Zang, Wu Yan, Shi Dang, Sha Bai Lou... those strong men who have achieved results above the Hundred Swords are by no means in vain. In terms of physical training alone, even if they are Hong Zang, who is least good at body training, is far superior to him in body training.
The trial of strength, the trial of strength... This is a trial that tests the body's cultivation. Ning Fan can use the method of adding Taoism to enhance the sharpness of the devil's claws and damage Shen Ersan's giant sword bit by bit, but However, it is impossible to increase the body-refining cultivation level by relying on additional Tao principles.
If his ancient demon cultivation level was higher, if he had more energy in his body, he could also try to take on a hundred swords or two hundred swords, but right now, he can't do it.
This is the so-called exhaustion. If he didn't have a trump card, he would be defeated by Shen Ersan's sword within a few moves.
Could it be that only by using the Luminous Pearl given by Tu Huang once and restoring his cultivation level could he defeat Shen Twenty-san and give him relief?
Of course, those sealed by the punishment ring are basically those with blood-stealing cultivation. Even if the punishment ring is temporarily released, it will not help improve the physical strength. But if he recovers his cultivation, at least the power of the many principles he has mastered can be exerted to its fullest. At the same time, he attached various principles to the Nightmare Dragon Claw, and all of them were attached to the strongest level. Ning Fan was confident that he could destroy everything in Shen Twenty-san within a few moves!
The sharpness of the Nightmare Dragon's claws, coupled with the bonus of several Taoist powers, means that the attack power cannot be underestimated!
Just as Ning Fan was thinking about it, Shen Ersan's appeal came from deep in his soul.
"The art of killing...is the...proof of the master of the Demon Sealing Summit..."
"You are... Mr. Mo Zhong... selected... successor..."
"Sir, please... use the art of killing... to give me a demonic burial..."
The art of killing is actually proof that the master of Demon Sealing Peak is? Knowing the art of killing, he was chosen to be the master of the Demon Sealing Peak?
This was the first time Ning Fan knew about this. In the past, he only thought that he had learned a magical power from Emperor Mo Zhong, but unexpectedly, there was such a great significance behind this magical power?
Naturally, this was not the time to consider these meanings. What made Ning Fan curious was what the sentence "Demon Burial with Killing Technique" actually meant.
He didn't understand why Shen Twenty-san mentioned this matter. Or, he could try to obey Shen Twenty-san's request and use the killing technique to see how to give Shen Twenty-san a demonic burial?
Thinking of this, Ning Fan secretly activated the killing technique. He didn't feel anything at first, but after a moment, his expression suddenly changed. It was as if the crowds roaring like mountains and tsunamis were silent, but he heard countless unwilling voices from the sky and the earth. Roar...
"The forty-two swordsmanship seems to be close to this boy's limit. This achievement is not bad compared to other people's, but compared with my Bailou disciple's achievement of close to six hundred swordsmanship, it is not worth mentioning. . Fellow Taoist Buddha Weeping, do you still think that this boy is stronger than my Bailou disciple?" Emperor Rutuo laughed and said in the direction of Emperor Fowei, but his tone was slightly sarcastic.
"Fellow Taoist, please don't underestimate this boy. This boy should have some backup plans. Don't forget, he is an ancient demon. In his body, I feel the aura of some ancient demon's lost magical power..." Buddha Emperor Weeping seemed to have great confidence in Ning Fan.
"The ancient demon has lost its magical power? The ancient demon is an inferior creature. It is said that the lost magical power of the ancient demon is unpredictable, but in the eyes of Buddhist cultivators like us, the ancient demon's magical power is nothing. This guy just knows one or two kinds of ancient demons. What can the devil do if he loses his magical power?" Emperor Rutuo said disdainfully, his words full of pride as a Buddhist cultivator.
Ancient demons have lost magical powers, and since they have the word "lost", naturally most of them are lost secrets. The inheritance of the lost secret art of ancient demons has long been cut off, and even the names are rarely passed down. Although Emperor Rutuo is an Immortal Emperor, he has only heard of three kinds of ancient demons losing magical powers. The art of breaking bones into weapons, the art of turning demon pupils away, and the magic air escape. It’s not that these magical powers are not powerful enough. It’s just that in Buddhism, there are some unique skills that can specifically know these kinds of ancient demon magical powers. In this way, Rutuo Naturally, the emperor would not think it was a big deal that the ancient demon had lost his magical power.
Buddha has his own arrogance when facing demons. It is natural to look down on demonic powers.
Emperor Rutuo didn't think that Ning Fan had any extraordinary magical powers that could enable him to achieve higher results, but Emperor Fowei didn't think so.
Emperor Fowei is one of the few people in the Dabei clan who has studied the ancient demon deeply. If he is not mistaken, it seems that Ning Fan has been planning for the lost magical power of an ancient demon since he took the first sword...
The vast majority of ancient demon magical powers have corresponding Buddhist restraints, but there are very few exceptions to ancient demon magical powers...
"If I'm not wrong, what this boy used should be the most powerful of the nine forbidden arts on the Demon Sealing Peak back then, and he also managed to reach the third level with that skill..."
Emperor Fowei had already made a guess in his heart, but his expression did not reveal anything. He still looked playful and said to Emperor Rutuo, "Since fellow Taoist disciples don't believe it, let's continue the bet we made before. Let's bet that this boy can catch the Hundred Swords. how?"
"Bet? Yes, if my fellow Taoist loses, how about giving me your 3 million pieces of the Demonic Nine Palace Iron that you refined!" Emperor Rutuo said unceremoniously.
"Haha, that is an innate talent that I have sacrificed and refined three million times. Fellow Taoist, you are really a lion. It doesn't matter, just bet on this thing! But in this case, I will not be polite. If fellow Taoist loses , I want you to have Biji and Yuanze among the seven innate fire spirits. I don’t want Luque. After all, this fire spirit has already become someone else’s treasure. Even if I want it, I won’t come to you..." Buddha Weeping Emperor suddenly smiled strangely, but he was talking about the thorn in Rutuo Emperor's heart.
Violent sparrow!
After millions of years of hard work, the seven fire spirits were finally swallowed by Ning Fan. How could Emperor Rutuo not hate them!
"Bijie and Yuanze, you can only choose one of the two, and I can't give you all of them. I'll give you half of Biji at most! I can't get the entire Fire Spirit, and I bet that you are just a Jiugongtie!"
"In that case, let's bet on Biji."
"Haha, that's very good. I'll be waiting for you to scold the devil."
Thinking that in just a short while, Emperor Rutuo would be able to win away the Nine Palace Irons, Emperor Rutuo's originally sinister expression suddenly became much clearer.
While he was talking, Ning Fan had already received the 49th sword. With this 49th sword, Ning Fan no longer had any extra energy to release a slash to block the giant sword. Instead, he used his claws to block the giant sword.
Ning Fan took this sword with great reluctance. Unlike the first sword, which was blocked by the devil's claws, this time, Ning Fan didn't have much strength anymore, and was directly knocked back dozens of steps by the huge wave of power of the giant sword, quite a bit. Embarrassed.
Seeing this, Emperor Rutuo was almost sure that Ning Fan would never be able to take the 50th sword. Even if he risked his life and took a few more swords, he would definitely not be able to reach the hundred swords.
This time, he will definitely win the bet!
Almost everyone agreed with Emperor Rutuo and believed that Ning Fan had reached his limit.
There were many regretful boos from the surrounding audience. Being able to hold up to 49 swords is enough to show that Ning Fan's strength is extraordinary, enough to be ranked fifth in this trial of strength, second only to the four dark horses such as Sha Bailou, but it is also That's all. If you want to compete with those four dark horse figures, it's not enough.
Master Hongzang took the time to sit cross-legged on the ground in the rain, closing his eyes and regulating his breath. He didn't pay attention to Ning Fan's trial, as if it was just a trivial matter. Wu Yan curled his lips, but she was looking at Ning Fan. After all, she had heard that Ning Fan was also a helper invited by Emperor Baihua. She originally wanted to find Ning Fan to join forces to compete for third place in this illusion trial. Now it seems that this person is not It's not worth her to win over...
Shi Dang sneered coldly, completely confused as to why Shabailou valued Ning Fan so much. 49 swords, this result was too low, and it was not worthy of mention at all. As he expected, a foreign cultivator whose cultivation level was banned was indeed not worth mentioning.
Sha Bailou was a little disappointed. He didn't expect that the prey he valued so much was only of this level. He really couldn't arouse the interest in killing it.
At this moment, Ning Fan paused and his expression became solemn.
The rain is still there, but it has calmed down.
The wind is still there, but it has died down.
But it seemed as if countless demonic roars were echoing in my ears, getting louder and louder, more and more deafening!
It was as if thousands of ancient demons were calling Ning Fan the same title at this moment!
"Lord...Give me a demonic burial!"
"Lord...Give me a demonic burial!!"
There are sounds like this from all directions!
Those voices seemed to be made by thousands of ancient demons in the Dabei clan. The ancient demons who died here and became corpse demons were definitely not the only ones who were Shen Twenty-three. They were all making appeals!
If Ning Fan hadn't activated the killing technique, he wouldn't have heard the appeals of these ancient demons!
If Ning Fan had not activated the killing technique, those ancient demons who had passed away for countless years would not have been able to remotely perceive Ning Fan's existence!
Ning Fan doesn't know that the art of killing is a funeral song that only the ancient demons who have passed away can listen to!
As the master of the Demon Sealing Peak, Immortal Emperor Mo Zhong created the killing technique. One of the uses of this technique is to bury the dead ancient demons!
The ancient demon body is extremely powerful and is the best choice for making puppets!
If the unyielding ancient demon becomes a puppet after death, then as the master of Demon Sealing Peak, he has the responsibility to bury those puppets!
This is...a demonic burial!
Here, Shen Twenty-three is by no means the only ancient demon who has become the zombie demon’s puppet!
It is not just Shen Twenty-three who are eager for Ning Fan to give him a demonic burial, but thousands of them!
If at first, Ning Fan's intention to send Shen Twenty-san to death was based on his respect and sympathy for the martyrs, then at this moment, he suddenly felt a sense of responsibility.
The Demon-Sealing Peak has been destroyed, and those who wield the art of killing are considered the masters of the Demon-Sealing Peak! Of course, the name of this master seems to have no meaning, no subordinates, no power, no interests.
But, so what!
Ning Fan seemed to have re-understood the art of killing, and it was as if he had touched the essence of the art of killing at this moment.
The essence of killing is not killing, but responsibility!
Killing should not be the goal, the goal should be redemption. For example, the Purple Dou Immortal Emperor purged Liuhe in order to calm down the troubled times; and the many Zi Dou Immortal cultivators who died protecting the world, killing the enemy's blood just to protect the homes of relatives and friends...
It's not that Ning Fan doesn't understand this principle, it's just that it's his first time to understand it through the art of killing.
Killing to restore energy, killing to increase cultivation, these are all techniques...but the intention of killing is Tao. The combination of martial arts and Taoism, this killing technique, is truly complete.
And this intention to kill cannot just be understood, it must come from the heart and be integrated into it before it can be truly displayed.
At this moment, with the combination of magic and Taoism, Ning Fan was surprised to find that he could use the killing technique to absorb the essence of the ancient death demon in a certain range around him and turn it into his own!
It is not surprising that the killing technique can restore one's own essence, but in the past, Ning Fan had to kill enemies in order to restore his essence.
Now it is not necessary! It seems that as long as there are dead ancient demons around, their essence can be absorbed! Just turn it into your own use!
Ning Fan also had a strange feeling. Today's killing technique is different. If he uses the killing technique to kill Shen Twenty-san in front of him, he seems... to gain some benefits!
That is a benefit that can only be obtained by those who implement the true intention of killing. It is the privilege of the former master of the Demon Sealing Peak...Emperor Mo Zhong!
After a brief period of confusion, Shen Ersan returned to his indifferent expression. His identity as a corpse demon puppet did not allow him to violate his responsibilities in the trial of strength, and the giant sword slashed at Ning Fan for the fiftieth time.
Ning Fan's energy was rapidly recovering, and he was quietly absorbing Shen Ersan's constant leakage of energy, so he took the fiftieth sword in a leisurely manner.
Then came the fifty-first sword, the fifty-second sword...the ninety-ninth sword!
His energy recovery speed is greater than the consumption speed!
The source of his energy recovery was directly plundered from the body of Shen Ersan on the opposite side. He plundered thousands of people in a way that no one could discover!
The cheers around him became more and more intense, and Emperor Rudra's face became more and more gloomy. The originally confident bet was about to be lost inexplicably!
When Ning Fan successfully took the hundredth sword, Emperor Rutuo finally couldn't bear it anymore and started to fight. He almost wanted to forcibly interrupt Ning Fan's test of strength and said angrily.
"With this child's cultivation method, it is absolutely impossible to receive the Hundred Swords! I suspect that this child has secretly shattered the punishment ring, and must immediately verify the punishment ring in this child's body. If this is true, not only will this child's test results be invalid, but also He should be cut into pieces with thousands of swords and killed on the spot! Someone, take this kid down and examine him!"
Emperor Rutuo gave an order, and immediately there were two Eternal Immortal Lords behind him. They swayed towards Ning Fan under the high platform.
But before these two people could rush to Ning Fan, they were stopped by the other four great emperors who took action at the same time.
Emperor Rutuo suddenly narrowed his eyes and became serious.
The emperor who intervened was Baihua Emperor, which was not surprising. She naturally wanted to help Ning Fan. It was not surprising that Fo Crying was involved. This guy always likes to stir up trouble in the world, especially this time. There is still a bet with him, and it is even more impossible to watch him nullify Ning Fan's Hundred Swords results; with Bone Spirit, this is not surprising. Bone Spirit opposes him in everything. Seeing him target Ning Fan, he will habitually He took action to defend himself so that he would not be unhappy; but what Emperor Rutuo least expected was that even Emperor Tiandu, who had always been mean and ungrateful and hated foreign cultivators, actually sided with Ning Fan!
"Friend Rutuo, don't be anxious. The punishment ring in this little friend Ning Fan's body has not been damaged. As a speaker in Zhongzhou, I hold the weapon of the Holy Mountain. If this son destroys the punishment ring, I will be the third one. It was sensed in a moment. Don't interfere with the trial of power, the trial continues!"
Emperor Tiandu's slightly warning look and his little friend's name made Rutuo Emperor feel shocked and extremely fearful.
The relationship between Emperor Tiandu and Ning Fan seems... not simple... If Emperor Rutuo is afraid of anyone else in Zhongzhou, Emperor Tiandu must be the biggest among them!
The dispute on the high platform did not affect Ning Fan. He was still undergoing the test of strength, and his performance continued to improve. He had already withstood 110 swords. He only took the time to glance in the direction of the high platform, but did not look more.
If he didn't gain another understanding of the art of killing, he would probably need to temporarily unblock his cultivation before he could be freed from Shen Twenty-san. But now that the killing technique has been sublimated, it doesn't have to be like this. He can feel that the process of restoring his energy is actually a process of waxing and waning. The energy he used to recover was continuously extracted from Shen Ersan's body. Even killing Bailou, Shen Twenty-san, who had a huge amount of energy, did not weaken in the slightest. However, Ning Fan slightly weakened Shen Twenty-san through the way of one going down and the other going up.
Only a very small part of the essence in Shen Ersan's body was consumed. It is hard for Ning Fan to imagine how powerful Shen Ersan was when he was at his peak. The amount of essence retained in the body is too terrifying. It takes thousands to be consumed. Only ten thousand swords can consume it completely.
That's it, just consume it slowly. When Shen Ersan's energy is exhausted, it's time to launch an attack!
200 swords, 300 swords, 400 swords...
In the 475th sword, Shen Ersan's giant sword was cracked to the limit, and it broke from the middle with a click!
If the recovery of vitality relies on the art of killing, then the giant sword that destroyed this ancient demonic soldier relied entirely on Ning Fan's fierce attack.
It should be noted that Killing Bailou was nearly 600 moves, and it was impossible to even leave a gap in the giant sword, but Ning Fan broke the giant sword before 500 swords.
Regarding the grudge between Ning Fan and Bai Lou, the residents of Liulic City had already looked down upon Ning Fan, but now they were shocked to discover that Ning Fan seemed to be even more powerful than Bai Lou!
Hongzang could no longer calm down, and his eyes that were originally quite strong were now as wide as a bull's eye, looking at Ning Fan in the center of the square in disbelief.
Wu Yan was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth. Shi Dang had a gloomy face and clenched his fists.
Sha Bailou was trembling with excitement. When Ning Fan finally surpassed him and ran step by step towards the Thousand Swords results, he actually looked up to the sky and laughed, venting his inner excitement.
His way can only be proven through killing!
If Ning Fan is killed, it will be of great significance to his cultivation! Sure enough, this time the battle to seize the tomb was right!
"Thousand Swords...hehe, if this child's score exceeds Thousand Swords in the end, he can get one of the three rewards left here by the Holy Ancestor. However, there seems to be no precedent for the Thousand Swords reward to be open to outside cultivators. How to deal with this matter is still unknown. Please make a decision, fellow Taoist Tiandu!
The Buddha-Crying Emperor, who had always been afraid of the world being in chaos, suddenly laughed strangely.
In an instant, the other emperors had different expressions. As for Emperor Rutuo, he roared angrily.
"No! I am firmly opposed to this matter. Among the three rewards of the Holy Ancestor, there is a choice of the Holy Mountain's supreme secret skill. Even the Immortal Emperor like us, it is extremely difficult to obtain a Holy Mountain secret skill. How can this matter be made easier for a foreign cultivator? , especially this external cultivator, who is an out-and-out ancient demon!" (.)
