Chapter 476: Restoring the Ancestors and Sealing the Devils (1)

Su Yan had never expected that the Mist Horn Broken Place would start to collapse as soon as they got inside, let alone having ten million devil spirits’ killing intent locked on her. Could it be that all of the devil spirits wanted to revolt against her?!

She tried to activate the power of the contracts of which the devil spirits were bound to. However, she could not sense the existence of the contracts, as if the contracts had already been destroyed.

With the power of the contracts, she could put all of the rebellious devil spirits to death by just willing it. If the contracts were destroyed, however, the devil spirits would all regain their freedom and they would no longer listen to her commands.

But only the clan leaders of could borrow the power of the Devil Mist Pond to enforce or invalidate the promise that the devil spirits in the Mist Horn Broken World made. Devil spirits were not able to go against their promises themselves.

Su Yan was not a fool. She immediately agreed with Ning Fan’s assumption. The collapse of the broken world and the rebellion of the devil spirits were not an accident. Someone was trying to plot against her!

“After a devil spirit was born, every one of them would enter into an agreement with the leaders of the Mist Horn Clan in the past. They could not defy the orders of the clan leaders. But this bunch of evil creatures could actually destroy the contracts themselves and disobey me now! The reason behind all this is certainly not simple!”

All of the contracts of which the devil spirits were bound to had been eliminated!

At this point, how could Su Yan not understand that a great change had happened to the broken world. It was impossible for the contracts of the devil spirits to be disappeared for no reason! Who is the person trying to plot against her?!”

“How were your devil spirits’ contracts destroyed?!

Su Yan asked with a cold and stern face. Her clear and chilly voice reverberated over one hundred thousand li* (500m per li).

“Hehe, who says that our contracts were eliminated? It’s just that the ownership of our contracts has transferred to another person and we have a new master and that’s all. Now, the ten million devil spirits in the Mist Horn Broken World no longer pledge their loyalty to you! We only devote ourselves to a single person! A person who can give our kind freedom and a bright future! A person who can bring the Mist Horn Clan to a greater height!”

The gloomy voices of roughly ten creatures echoed from afar.

At the direction where the voices came from, fifteen Void Refinement Realm devil spirits were approaching them from afar in blazing fast travelling light while letting out an evil laughter. All of their killing intent were targeting at Su Yan.

As for Ning Fan who was beside Su Yan, the fifteen old monsters just had a quick glance at him. After realizing that he was just a Half-Step Void Refinement Realm junior, they no longer paid attention to him.

Su Yan’s beautiful eyes were filled with shock when she heard that these devil spirits’ contracts were not destroyed but had the ownership transferred to another person of the clan. So the revolt of the devil spirits this time was actually a scheme from a member of her own clan?!

“Who is your new master?!”

“It’s Lord Xi Mo! Since Clan Leader Su has come to the broken world, you have to leave anymore. General Xi Mo has given us orders. We must make sure Clan Leader Su’s life stay here!”

Ning Fan’s eyes turned cold. He finally understood why Xi Mo wanted to stop him from entering the broken world. The latter did not want him to interfere with his plan to get rid of Su Yan.

Su Yan bit her lips tightly that they nearly bleed. Her heart just felt cold and numbed. Even though she had always been having a bad relationship with Xi Mo, she still treated him like one of her own clan member anyhow.

She was aware that Xi Mo was always dissatisfied with her but she did not expect that he would betray her, plot against her and even be bold enough to come up with a scheme to kill her one day...

The shock in her beautiful eyes was then replaced with a cold disappointment. She found Xi Mo’s treachery extremely abhorrent.

“Xi Mo, huh. Humph! If I survive and manage to get out of this place, I wil certainly make him pay!”

“Haha. Then you need to get out here alive first!”

*Bang* *Bang* *Bang*

Strong and forceful Void Refinement Realm attacks flew at her from all directions. The vigorous fluctuations of magic power torn pieces of heavens apart and sealed off all her escape routes without leaving any loophole.

Even though Su Yan was a Void Inquiry Stage expert whose cultivation level was a hair’s breadth away from the next advancement, she was still outmatched by the 15 Void Refinement Realm beings who attacked her at once.

Facing with the fifteen incoming Void Refinement Realm attacks, there was not a single hint of fear on her face. Instead, she displayed a valiant and heroic bearing.

She patted her storage pouch, planning to take out her natal magic treasure to retaliate. However, shock filled her face once more. Feeling surprised and furious, she realized that all of her magic treasures in her storage pouch were gone.

When she was in seclusion before the auction, she handed over her storage pouch to Gui Jiao, the Void Glimpse Stage elder of the clan and asked for his help to repair her magic treasures. After the auction was over, he then returned her the storage pouch.

Without a doubt, it was his doing for the disappearance of the magic treasures on Su Yan’s pouch today.

Apparently, the experts who were involved in the rebellion within the Mist Horn Clan this time was not only Xi Mo but also Gui Jiao!

Being betrayed and forsaken by her close subordinates while having no magic treasures with her to defend herself made her wore a look of despair and helplessness for the first time. She was not sure whether or not she could withstand the single attack from the fifteen old monsters.

Even if she manages to withstand the attacks, what else could she do? The broken world had already collapsed. It was unknown whether there was still another way to the outside world.

Even if there is still a way out, there’s no way she could find the exit in such a short period of time. Even if she could survive this wave of attacks, the fifteen Void Refinement Realm experts would continue to attack her until she perishes...

“Detestable!”

Su Yan slightly opened her alluring lips and shot out a ray of purple light from her mouth. It was a small red purplish shield which emanated immense spiritual qi.

That was a Mid Grade Mortal Void defensive magic treasure. It was sturdy enough to defend against a Void Inquiry Stage strike. The reason why it did not go missing like the other equipment she had was because she kept it inside her dantian and nourish it with her magic power. Now, it turned out to be her only life-saving magic treasure.

The tiny shield turned into a red purplish ray in the sky and spread into multiple layers of purple light shield.

As the 15 Void Refinement Realm attacks landed on the light shield, each of its layers was smashed to pieces upon the impact of the attacks. The massive force of the collision formed into a hurricane that swept over the one hundred thousand li* (500m per li) large land.

*Ka Cha*

The fifteen Void Refinement Realm attacks broke the defensive barrier of the tiny shield layer by layer and eventually landed on the shield itself, leaving countless cracks on its body.

Seeing the tiny shield could not hold on the attacks any longer, Su Yan gritted her teeth and made a hand seal to detonate it. The Mid Grade Mortal Void magic treasure exploded, producing waves of fire. After expending great effort, Su Yan finally managed to block the fifteen attacks at the expense of her magic treasure.

However, she choked on her own blood and coughed out a few mouthfuls of it. Her natal shield was destroyed. Thus, the backlash she got from its destruction was definitely severe. Her qi became stagnant because of her injuries. All of a sudden, she could only use less than 30% of her total magic power. This left her no chance to escape for her life.

She knew that it would be difficult for her to get out alive today. The only regret she had was to bring Ning Fan who was supposed to be an outsider into this trouble.

She gave Ning Fan an apologetic smile and her eyes were already filled with the will to die. As the leader of a clan, a woman like her was considered brave and strong compared to other women. Thus, she was not afraid to die.

“Fellow Daoist Zhou, I’m sorry that I have brought you into such trouble this time. If I have known this earlier, I wouldn’t have let you get in the broken world... What I am going to do next is to ignite my primordial spirit and put up a desperate fight. I should be able to hold them for a short period of time. At that time, Fellow Daoist quickly escapes with the clan leader’s token. Perhaps you will stand a chance to find an exit in other areas of the broken world. By activating the clan leader’s token, you might be able to get out alive...”

Su Yan shoved the clan leader’s token into Ning Fan’s hands and got in front of him with gentle lotus steps. She stood in front of him, only showing her back to him.

From behind, she looked delicate and weak. Even so, she had to shoulder the fate of the entire for countless times. And today, she put herself at the frontline to protect Ning Fan and buy him time to escape.

Ning Fan held the token in his hand. His eyes sparkled.

Su Yan sure is a good woman. It’ll be a waste if she dies here.

He suddenly took a large step forward and placed her arm around her waist. With a playful tone, he said.

“Mistress Su has yet to brew me the devil wine as promise. You can’t just die here. How about let me take you away?”

*Chi*

Eight massive black fiery wings suddenly appeared on Ning Fan’s back. As soon as his fire wings flapped, they dashed towards a direction at a speed comparable to that of a Void Inquiry Stage expert.

All this while, all the devil spirits had been focusing their attention on Su Yan. None of them even spared a glance at Ning Fan.

As Ning Fan suddenly took off with Su Yan at such an incredible speed, it shocked every one of those creatures. Each of the old monsters stared at Ning Fan in disbelief. None of them could imagine that a lowly Half-Step Void Refinement Realm cultivator like Ning Fan would possess a Void Inquiry Stage speed.

What they found even harder to believe was that the speed of Ning Fan’s eight wings was even slightly faster than the 7 Void Inquiry Stage experts there. Not a single one of them could catch up with him!

Of course, the person who felt the most amazed was none other than Su Yan. She was not surprised of Ning Fan’s strength. In her mind, she thought of him as a devil lord who was interested in seeking gains and benefits in every situation. A person like him disliked causing trouble the most.

To her surprise, even though she had already promised him to get him a chance to escape, a selfish person like him did not escape on his own. Instead, he pulled her along with him to flee. This was just not logical at all...

“Why?” She seemed to be asking Ning Fan but in fact, she was also questioning herself.

The members of her own clan turned their back on her but Ning Fan who was just a stranger did not abandon her. Why?

“You are my devil concubine. I am the one who will decide your life and death. The others have to deal with me first before killing you. Show me the way. Bring me to the Devil Mist Pond.”

“Devil concubine! How did you know about that?!” Su Yan could not understand why Ning Fan would find out her identity as the devil concubine of the clan.

She also could not comprehend the relation between her identity and the reason he saved her.

She had too many questions that she wanted to ask him. However, the current situation did not allow her to talk too much with him.,

Each of the Void Refinement Realm devil spirit revealed a strong killing intent when they saw Ning Fan wanted to take Su Yan away.

“Stop them! Don’t let them go! Otherwise, how are we going to explain to General Xi Mo?!”

“Kill them! No matter what it takes, just make them perish!”

The Void Inquiry Stage old monster who led the group gave an order. All of the magic treasures and magic techniques of the low-grade devil spirits flew at Ning Fan.

The 15 Void Refinement Realm devil spirits, on the other hand, did not attack at all. Ning Fan’s current speed was fast like a housefly that was flying around randomly. It was difficult to have any attacks that would strike him down.

The fifteen of them then formed a barrier with their power together to lock down the space within the vicinity of one hundred thousand li* (500m per li) in order to prevent Ning Fan from escaping with his incredible speed.

The barrier had sealed off Ning Fan’s escape route. In the meantime, countless low-grade devil spirits swarmed towards them in all directions like a tidal wave.

When each of the low-grade devil spirits got closer to Ning Fan, they immediately detonated themselves. They did not hesitate at all to sacrifice themselves just to block Ning Fan’s path. Their fearless aura and actions could make move any cultivators.

It was a crazy life and death battle. Even Su Yan was shocked by the determination of the devil spirits. However, Ning Fan was already used to this kind of battles where his opponents gave their all and resort to desperate means.

In a life and death battle like this, it’s either you die or I perish. One must not be soft-hearted and exercise mercy to their enemies.

Ning Fan released his spirit sense without restraint. His sword sense turned into materialized into concentrated dark ink which covered the vast skies.

Waves of dark sword sense spread over the air, scattering into tens of millions of black sword rays. Just the remaining force of the sword qi was strong enough to crush countless low-grade devil spirits.

*Chi* *Chi* *Chi*

Millions of the low-grade devil spirits were instantly killed by the sword rays without even having the chance to detonate themselves. The area was turned into a ruin piled up with corpses and flooded with blood.

Ning Fan let out every last trace of his baleful qi which dyed the entire skies blood-red. All of the low-grade devil spirits within the vicinity of one hundred thousand li* (500m per li) no longer dared to attack him at all. They were all paralyzed by fear because of the Ning Fan’s ferocious might.

The Divine Transformation Realm devil spirits then stood in front Ning Fan’s path. Despite that, Ning Fan accelerated his travelling speed to its maximum and his physical body was like a bullet as he directly crashed into the bodies of those creatures.

The Divine Transformation Realm devil spirit which stood in his way were all crashed into meat paste. None of them could survive!

“What?! A mere Half-Step Void Refinement Realm cultivator is so strong!?”

The 15 Void Refinement Realm devil spirits were stunned. They now managed to see that even though Ning Fan had yet to attain the Void Refinement Realm, his combat power was definitely unparalleled among Divine Transformation Realm beings.

Of all 15 of them, only 5 stayed behind to maintain the barrier while the other 10 beings went to pursue Ning Fan.

As long as the barrier still remained, no matter how fast Ning Fan was, he would not be able to flee. In the view of the Void Refinement Realm devil spirits, it was just a matter of time before Ning Fan dies in their hands.

“Little brat, put Su Yan down and become this old man’s slave. Then I will spare your life!”

A Void Refinement Realm devil spirit went to ahead of Ning Fan and blocked his way. He stared at Ning Fan with a cold smirk.

His name was Mu Gui and he was a Void Glimpse Stage old monster. He was a strong being with a haughty demeanor. Although he was aware of Ning Fan’s strength, he did not think he could match him.

Mu Gui alone stood in front of Ning Fan and he completely did not realize that how dangerous and reckless his action was.

He wielded a cactus-like devil weapon using his spirit sense. There were countless thorns on his weapon. Under his command, all of the thorns grew into spikes which were as thick as a human’s arm and elongated to cut off all Ning Fan’s ways.

He then stood there with his hands clasped behind, acting like a senior or a profound master. It was as if Ning Fan’s life and death rested in his hands and he could choose to kill him or spare his life if he does what he said obediently.

“I’ll give you half a breath to consider!” Mu Gui threatened with a cold smile. His expression looked like he had got Ning Fan.

At the next moment, Ning Fan’s body shone in golden light. As he threw out a punch, heaven and earth shook.

Void Technique, Double Dragon!

“Go to hell!”

Ning Fan’s eyes flashed with a hint of cold light. He did not have the intention to talk nonsense with Mu Gui and sent out a black dragon’s shadow at him right away.

That formidable punch landed directly on the jagged magic treasure that Mu Gui wielded and immediately broke that excellent Low Grade Mortal Void magic treasure into pieces.

Terror pervaded Mu Gui’s heart. He certainly could not withstand the force of that strike and it was already too late for him to flee. After being hit by Ning Fan’s punch on his chest, the force dispersed, turning his entire physical body into blood mist.

His helpless miniature primordial spirit tried to escape but Ning Fan grabbed it with his hand and tossed it into his mouth, literally chewing it to bits. That deceased primordial spirit turned into a thick devil qi that went into Ning Fan’s devil marks.

Every other devil spirits were terrified after witnessing Mu Gui’s fate. That punch which Ning Fan delivered was too strong. Even the seven Void Inquiry Stage experts might not be able to remain unscathed if they were the ones who withstood that attack just now!

“This brat is just at the Half-Step Void Refinement Realm but he could kill a Void Glimpse Stage expert with a single punch. This is irrational!”

“That golden light that his body gave off is the characteristic that only Golden Body Realm experts will have! Even though he is yet to truly attain the Golden Body Realm, the strength of his punch is not any weaker than that of a Void Inquiry Stage old monster like us!”

*Bang*

At the moment the other old monsters were hesitating, Ning Fan was already approaching the barrier. He conjured a strand of golden purple mist on his fingers which formed into a large claw. When he raked the barrier violently using that claw, the entire barrier eroded away.

“What?! He can actually destroy the barrier that we have created together with all our power! This is just impossible!”

The surviving 14 old monsters were astonished once more by Ning Fan.

Even though his cultivation level was not high, his skills and techniques were too heaven-defying. He was definitely not someone whom they could disregard.

“Kill him!”

The 14 Void Refinement Realm devil spirits delivered their strongest attack at both Ning Fan and Su Yan at once. All of them harbored a strong intent to make them perish from this world.

A few old monsters had even enhanced the destructive power of their magic techniques at the expense of their cultivation level in order to accelerate the speed of their magic attacks so that they would be able to hit Ning Fan accurately.

The total power of 14 Void Refinement Realm attacks was capable of killing any Void Inquiry Stage experts. Even a Void Pierce Stage expert would also be severely injured!

Everyone thought that Ning Fan and Su Yan would die together under this wave of attacks.

At the same moment, however, Ning Fan’s body brightly flashed with lightning rays and he summoned his Primordial Lightning Armor.

The current Ning Fan who was clad in golden armor with blood-stained white robes underneath resembled a celestial being. He turned around and stared coldly at the incoming 14 attacks with a disdainful face.

“If I want to leave, none of you will be able to make me stay!”

*Bang* *Bang* *Bang*

The attacks landed on Ning Fan’s back one after another. He took those attacks head-on under the protection of the lightning armor.

That third grade golden armor was sturdy enough to withstand a Void Pierce Stage strike. After withstanding the attacks from the 14 old monsters, countless cracks were formed on his lightning armor but it just would not break.

At the moment he left the barrier, he put on the Heaven Deceiving Cloak and literally vanished right before the eyes of those 14 Void Refinement Realm old monsters.

None of them managed to see through Ning Fan’s invisibility with their capabilities!

All of the devil spirits were left stunned.

By himself, Ning Fan killed his way out from the ten million devil spirits without suffering any injuries at all.

As for the devil spirits, however, they lost a Void Glimpse Stage old monster and countless low-grade devil spirits.

When the Void Refinement Realm devil spirits thought of their humiliating defeat, their eyes glowed bright red. With a wrathful tone, they said.

“Find him! He certainly hasn’t left the broken world. Find out where he is and tear him to pieces! We can’t let that brat live and Su Yan must die!”
