Chapter 531: Chapter 531: The Power of Void Ignition!
(Unedited)
Ning Fan stood on the ancient sword while countless dead and injured devil armies and ghost troops were scattered all over the land.
Fresh blood dyed the land red. Immense killing qi covered the vast sky. Everywhere was filled with deafening fighting sounds and cries of pain!
The area within ten thousand li* (500m per li) was filled with carcasses and bones. The strength of the ghost army that Bone Sovereign commanded was diminishing gradually. After all, they were one million plus troops lesser than Ning Fan’s army.
Seeing that his ghost army was slowly losing ground, Bone Sovereign’s face turned grim.
Today, he was a set of grey robes. He still had the body of a young man. His face had great resemblance to that of Wang Yao in the past but it was widely different from his original look.
His eyes flashed with ferocious red glow. He already realized that his ghost army would not be able to take Ning Fan down.
Forty years ago, Ning Fan was just a Harmonious Spirit Realm cultivator.
Forty years later, he actually became a Void Refinement Realm expert!
Even though Bone Sovereign was unwilling to accept the truth, he had to admit that Ning Fan’s natural talent in cultivation was not something that he could rival.
However, no matter what, he could not let a Void Refinement Realm ant to go too far in bullying him!
That’s right! To him who was a Void Fragmentation Realm expert, a cultivator at the Void Refinement Realm was just an insignificant ant!
Two hours later, five million ghost troops completely perished. As for the six million devil armies that Ning Fan summoned, there were still two million plus left. The stench of blood pervaded the entire Seventh Region.
As Ning Fan undid the magic technique, all of the remaining devil armies vanished into dust.
Ning Fan stared at Bone Sovereign quietly. He had won the first battle against the huge army!
“Where are my five thousand Divine Transformation Realm cultivators? Form the ‘Seven-Pointed Bone Sacrifice Formation’!”
Seething with fury, Bone Sovereign barked an order to command the five thousand Divine Transformation Realm ghosts to establish the formation.
All of a sudden, the five thousand Divine Transformation Realm turned into rays of light and began moving. Half of them moved into the sky while the other half occupied the ground. They divided themselves into seven groups to surround Ning Fan in seven different directions.
Every one of the Divine Transformation Realm ghosts made a hand seal at the same time and a diagram of white skeleton emerged beneath everyone’s feet.
Rays of white light from the diagrams connected into one and a massive shadow of a white skeleton tortoise appeared in each of the seven directions.
Seven white skeleton tortoises were the seven star angles of the formation which enabled the formation light to be connected to each other, forming into a gigantic seven-pointed star grand formation!
By just standing inside the formation light, Ning Fan already felt the yin qi corroding his bones. His entire magic power was nearly frozen into ice. His body became stiff and hard, rendering him unable to move a single muscle.
The Seven-Pointed Bone Sacrifice Formation was really impressive. Its power was already close to that of an Immortal Void Grand Formation. Even if an Absolute Void Stage expert is trapped within this formation light, they would not be able to escape with ease. Once they were turned into ice by the power of the formation light, even their primordial spirits would perish, causing a certain death to them!
When the seven-pointed star formation made a rotation, Ning Fan’s long hair and blood were instantly frozen. Even his Sea of Consciousness was beginning to freeze!
When the seven-pointed star rotated for the second time, Ning Fan’s Sea of Consciousness was literally frozen and it already became difficult for him to think!
Ning Fan seemed to have seen the rough and bumpy cultivation path that he had travelled his entire life but then his thoughts began turning blurry. Even his consciousness was about to be turned into ice.
Illusions began clouding his vision. He felt like he was in a world of ice where he was the only person left and he was going to freeze to death alone in this place.
Each time the seven-pointed star made an additional rotation, Ning Fa’s life force would drain by a small portion.
Forty years of killings. Five hundred years of loneliness. All the heart-warming and sad memories were going to be buried under the world of ice gradually!
“No!”
Ning Fan suddenly opened his eyes and glared at the seven-pointed star formation.
The formation was indeed powerful as it could freeze his physical body, his cultivation base, and his memories... However, his stubborn will for survival was so strong that even the Heavenly Dao could not freeze it!
The heavens could collapse, the earth could be overturned, Dao could vanish and life could be eliminated but only his stubborn will would never be extinguished. Even if he would die one hundred times, he would never regret clinging to that stubborn persistence!
“Void Ignition!”
Ning Fan’s ten fingers moved swiftly. His black hair danced wildly in the air. Suddenly, a massive diagram of black flame appeared below his feet. Countless black void fire rings had been ignited in every direction, melting the ice around him!
While the sea of fire raged, Ning Fan’s life force drained rapidly. The black flames around him suddenly turned into one million black fire butterflies!
At this moment, the Seven-Pointed Bone Sacrifice Formation had stopped rotating!
At this moment, the icy cold qi in heaven and earth had dispersed completely!
The five thousand Divine Transformation Realm cultivators who were controlling the formation coughed out blood. All of them stared at the one million black butterflies in disbelief as they felt an indescribable fear within them!
All twelve Void Refinement Realm guards turned pale with shock. They sensed the danger of certain death from the black butterflies. All they could feel was their primordial spirits were also going to be ignited by the void flames!
Bone Sovereign’s furious eyes widened. Only after staring at those black butterflies in bewilderment for quite some time did he gnash his teeth and reluctantly said, “T-This is... an immortal technique?! No. It isn’t. However, it’s already extremely close to the grade of an immortal technique... How can this be possible?!!!”
Immortal technique! It was a supreme technique that only beings who had successfully become an immortal could display!
Bone Sovereign could not see through the exact grade of this technique but it gave him a sense of danger!
When Ning Fan changed his hand seals, the one million black butterflies with their bodies fused into a huge black fire butterfly.
The wings of the butterfly were so large that they could cover the entire sky. Its body was burning with void flames. Despite the flames that were burning its wings, it also wanted to eliminate its enemies!
The gigantic butterflies aimed its wings at the seven white skeleton tortoises and flapped them violently!
After just flapping its wings for the first time, half of Ning Fan’s total magic power and essence qi had been exhausted. Rings of black flames spread out and the seven white skeleton tortoises all disappeared into ashes!
The second flap! The gigantic butterfly aimed its wings at the five thousand Divine Transformation Realm cultivators. By just flapping its large wings, every last one of them was already burned to ashes by the fire rings before they could even react!
The countless layers of formation light of the Seven-Pointed Bone Sacrifice Formation shattered one after another!
At this moment, the gigantic butterfly aimed at Bone Sovereign’s direction and flapped its wings for the third time!
Bone Sovereign’s expression instantly changed. He turned into a ray of grey light and soared into the sky directly. He managed to get out of the attack range of the gigantic butterfly.
As for the twelve Void Refinement Realm guards in front of him, however, none of them managed to escape!
Among the twelve of them, there were 6 Void Glimpse Stage cultivators, 4 Void Inquiry Stage cultivators and 2 Void Pierce Stage experts!
Even so, none of them could escape alive under the third wave of attack from the butterfly and all of them were turned into ashes!
Exterminate!
Ning Fan’s magic power and essence qi were completely depleted. He even suffered a backlash from the immortal technique – Void Ignition.
No matter what, he could not command the butterfly to flap its wings for the fourth time. Otherwise, he would even make himself disappear into ashes! It was already his limit to command the butterfly to flap three times!
Afterward, he activated the Lifestealer Technique and absorbed all the blood qi within ten thousand li* (500m per li) of the battlefield which was converted into essence qi. In just an instant, his essence qi was already recovered to its peak!
As long as the sea of blood still existed in this battlefield, he would never run out of essence qi. This was the most terrifying part of the ancient devil technique – Lifestealer Technique!
Ning Fan had slaughtered all the ghosts in the entire Seventh Region all by himself and Bone Sovereign was the only one left!
Bone Sovereign’s eyes glared at Ning Fan with terror and doubt.
He did not believe at all that Ning Fan’s ability would be so terrifying where he could incinerate all his subordinates with a fire technique after forty years!
If it wasn’t because he managed to escape swiftly, he would be injured by the third wave of attack.
He had no choice but to admit that the current Ning Fan was already at a level that deserved his respect!
“Very well! That burning butterfly technique is indeed impressive. I’m afraid even an Absolute Void Stage expert might not necessarily be able to withstand the third wave of void flames just now. However, it’s still not enough for you to fight me using this technique alone!”
“My body has serious injuries now. My cultivation base has fallen to the First Heavenly Layer from the Fifth Heavenly Layer of the Void Fragmentation Realm. Unless you command the butterfly to flap its wings for five times or more, you certainly won’t be able to kill me with it!”
“I suppose this is already your greatest technique. You can die next! White Bone Dao – The Dance of Bracken Ferns!”
Bone Sovereign sneered and abruptly formed a series of hand seals. Countless white bony projections suddenly sprouted up from the ground across the mountains and rivers within the Seventh Region!
Each of the white bony projection was several ten thousand zhang* (3.33m per zhang) tall. They were sharp like blades and massive like mountains!
Each of the tall mountains were penetrated from the bottom as those projections shot up from the ground!
The land of the entire Seventh Region cracked and swayed violently. Even the ghosts in the first few regions could feel the effect of the terrifying magic technique coming from the Seventh Region!
*Chi* *Chi* *Chi*
Bony projections that were thick like raindrops pierced into the sky from the ground. In the next instant, countless inverted bony projections also appeared in the sky. They actually sprouted from the sky to the ground!
It looked like two iron sieves that were full of sharp needles were pressing toward Ning Fan from two directions.
Ning Fan did not have a path to retreat at all. The entire Seventh Region was within the attack range of Bone Sovereign’s technique.
Even if he possesses a cultivation base at the Absolute Void Stage cultivation base, he certainly could not withstand a single attack from Bone Sovereign. After all, it was a genuine Void Fragmentation Realm attack!
“You’re dead!” Bone Sovereign’s laughter resounded in the Seventh Region like thunder clap and it echoed to the Sixth Region.
The hair on Ning Fan’s body stood up. At that critical juncture, he hurriedly patted his storage pouch and took out a fiery-red figurine that was as large as his palm.
“That might not necessarily be true!”
The figurine grew in the air and instantly turned into a fire giant that was ten thousand zhang* (3.33m per zhang) tall!
Ning Fan kept his ancient golden sword and stood at the shoulder of the giant.
The giant’s eyes were vacant. However, it was filled with respect for Ning Fan. When Ning Fan gave it an order, it suddenly stomped on the ground and hurled its fists at the sky, crushing all the bony projections coming from both directions!
Even if these bony projections could kill Absolute Void Fragmentation experts, they certainly could not kill this fire giant.
It was because this fire giant was the Void Fragmentation Realm puppet Ning Fan subdued that day. It was the Dao Guardian – Giant Zhi Huo!
After Bone Sovereign’s magic techniques were broken, it aggravated his injuries, causing him to move backwards for several continuous steps in midair. Every step he took would break the space. In every step he took, he would cough out a mouthful of fresh blood!
His eyes flickered with blood-red light as he glared at Ning Fan. His face was filled with disbelief.
“A Void Fragmentation Realm puppet?! There is no way this can be true! Why a mere Void Refinement Realm ant like you can have a Void Fragmentation Realm puppet to protect you?!”
“You don’t have to know it. Zhi Huo, kill him!”
When Ning Fan gave that order, Giant Zhi Huo took a step forward and pointed a finger at Bone Sovereign.
Bone Sovereign saw that the situation was turning bad for him and hurriedly turned into a ten thousand zhang* (3.33m per zhang) tall white skeleton giant. He unhinged his jaw and roared, producing multiple white skeleton sound waves to attack Giant Zhi Huo.
“White Bone Dao – Bone Devil Sound!”
In the past when Bone Sovereign made a clone out of Wang Yao’s identity, he had killed countless cultivators of Yue Country using this technique. When Bone Sovereign used this technique with his true body, its power became even more outstanding.
However, in Giant Zhi Huo’s eyes, this technique was nothing!
He lifted one of his fingers slowly and the sky within two hundred thousand li* (500m per li) was sealed off by fiery-red tribulation clouds!
The sky seemed like it was burning and the Seventh Region seemed to have become a steamer. The sound waves were neutralized by Giant Zhi Huo with a single finger!
“I’m Zhi Huo. I’ll land the tribulation upon you under my master’s order! The Heavenly Dao will be the cauldron and you will be the pill... Refine!”
All of a sudden, a column of intangible flames fell from the sky, enveloping the white skeleton giant which Bone Sovereign had transformed into. The flames then grew into a massive burning pill cauldron, trapping Bone Sovereign within.
As the sea of flames within the pill cauldron rose, Bone Sovereign immediately let out a violent cry of agony.
He could not believe the fact that Ning Fan not only possessed a Void Fragmentation Realm puppet but that puppet also had extraordinary combat power. It actually could use the flames of the heavenly tribulation as a method to attack its enemies!
“This is certainly impossible! I don’t believe it!” Bone Sovereign lost his temper. The red glow in his eyes shone more brightly.
He was Bone Sovereign and he wanted to break this tribulation cauldron!
