Chapter 511: Chapter 511: Striking Awe Into One Hundred Sects (5)

The third jade slip was left behind by the Mist Horn Clan’s thirty-first generation ancestor. That expert was adept in magic techniques of the ice element.

When this jade slip was crushed, the shadow of an ice giant suddenly emerged in the sky. The snowflakes falling over the Northern Cold Country were literally frozen in midair.

The giant’s qi was as cold as ice. When all of the one million and four hundred thousand plus cultivators around the area felt the rush of coldness, their hearts pounded with fear.

The giant pointed a finger at the sky. Instantly, countless ice crystals appeared in the sky, forming into a massive throne that was ten thousand zhang* (3.33m per zhang) tall!

“Cold Ice Throne!”

In the endless chants of devil scriptures, the giant suddenly let out a roar and the throne plummeted from the sky. It immediately froze everything wherever it passed by!

The giant of eyeballs which Marquis You Gui had turned into looked really shocked. He wanted to evade the falling throne but then he realized that both of his feet had actually been turned into ice, completely preventing him from moving.

Without hesitation, he violently made a series of hand seals with gritted teeth and a violent expression. Countless eyeballs on his body closed with black blood flowing out from every one of them.

Every time Marquis You Gui closed one of those eyeballs, his injuries would worsen but his aura force would increase slightly.

When all of the eyeballs shut their eyes, he was already in a grievous state but his aura force came extremely close to the Void Fragmentation Realm. He activated all of his magic power and hurled a punch at the throne in the sky!

“True Hell Punch!”

*Bang*

The destructive power of that punch was infinitely close to the Void Fragmentation Realm. It immediately made countless cracks on the falling ice throne and knocked it back into the sky. The loud bang reverberated across the heavens.

However, the moment his punch came into contact with the throne, Marquis You Gui surprisingly discovered that even both of his fists were also turned into ice!

All of his magic power was nearly frozen just now by the power of the throne!

As the ice giant made an angry roar, the ice throne that was sent flying upward by Marquis You Gui actually began to fall down on him again.

“This is bad!” Marquis You Gui whose limbs were completely frozen had not expected a follow-up attack from the throne. It was already too late for him to try stopping it.

In the next moment, a painful wail resounded across the air. Marquis You Gui’s entire body was completely turned into ice. With him at the center, the ice power continued to spread, filling the sky within the vicinity of one million li* (500m per li) with intense ice qi. The whole area nearly froze!

The shadow of the ice giant slowly disappeared. The frozen heaven and earth was also gradually defrosted like nothing had happened.

Amidst the icy mist, Marquis You Gui appeared again with labored breath. Ice sludge was all over his hair and beard. His qi had become extremely weak and feeble while the condition of his injuries was extremely grave. Moreover, his Heavenly Ghost Armor had already been broken entirely…

Even so, he was actually still not dead yet!

“Zhou Ming, as long as I’m still alive, I will certainly destroy the families and clans related to you and tear their remains to shreds!” Marquis You Gui screamed furiously. He had already put the Pill Sovereign’s previous warning to the back of his mind.

He wanted to kill Ning Fan, regardless of the cost!

Marquis You Gui faced Ning Fan once more. This time, however, none of the cultivators from the one hundred plus sects dared to say that Marquis You Gui would certainly win the fight.

Perhaps Zhou Ming still had a fourth Void Fragmentation Realm jade slip up his sleeves…

This thought surfaced in the minds of countless cultivators. Even though they clearly knew that the probability of Ning Fan possessing another Void Fragmentation Realm jade slip was extremely low, whatever is impossible would become possible if it was him.

After witnessing Ning Fan injure Marquis You Gui three consecutive times, King Lan Ling had already regarded him as his nemesis.

The current Ning Fan was just too brilliant as he overpowered an Absolute Void Stage expert despite his Void Inquiry Stage cultivation base. His impressiveness had even outshone King Lan Ling.

King Lan Ling could not accept Ning Fan overshadowing him. However, he was also worried that Ning Fan might possess a fourth Void Fragmentation Realm jade slip at the same time. Therefore, he did not dare to come forward and fight with him.

It was not just King Lan Ling. After witnessing Ning Fan overwhelm Marquis You Gui, who else would dare to resist Ning Fan on their own?!

The wind and snow were as somber and desolate as usual. Marquis You Gui’s expression looked deranged. He did not believe that Ning Fan would still have another Void Fragmentation Realm jade slip!

Just like a gambler, the more they lose, the more they desire to gamble. The more self-conceited one was, the more likely they would refuse to admit defeat and the easier for them to lose everything.

Marquis You Gui patted his storage pouch and took out a soul flag that was emanating thick ghost qi.

That flag contained eight hundred million souls which include those of both mortals and cultivators.

A soul flag was the most vicious magic treasure a cultivator could wield. The user of the magic treasure would need to kill others and take their souls to refine it. The more souls they obtain, the greater the power of the soul flag. The power of a soul flag with eight hundred million souls was equivalent to that of an Immortal Void Treasure!

It was a magic treasure that Marquis You Gui had spent tens of thousands of years refining. He still had yet to completely finish refining it and it was still a semi-finished product. Originally, he planned on harvesting up to one billion souls and use this soul flag to seek his revenge on the Thunder Sovereign afterward…

Today, however, he really detested Ning Fan for harming his foundation and destroying his heavenly armor. Therefore, he wanted to eliminate him at all costs even if he had to use this soul flag at this moment!

“What a powerful soul flag. It has kept at least eight hundred million souls! Even though this soul flag has yet to be completely refined, Marquis You Gui would remain undefeated among cultivators below the Void Fragmentation Realm with this soul flag. Even if Zhou Ming still has a Void Fragmentation Realm stored attack, he might not necessarily be able to defeat him! That old man, Marquis You Gui, actually kept such powerful means hidden so secretly… However, because that soul flag has yet to be fully refined, it’s extremely fragile and would break if it’s used rashly. Marquis You Gui has really lost his mind for trying to use it out of anger.” King Lan Ling said with an expression filled with mixed feelings.

Ning Fan’s eyes became solemn upon seeing Marquis You Gui trying to use the soul flag containing eight hundred million souls. The soul flag was extremely formidable as its destructive power was probably beyond the common Void Fragmentation Realm jade slips.

He still had 14 jade slips and talismans that stored an attack at the First Heavenly Layer of Void Fragmentation Realm. However, the power of these stored attacks might not be able to defeat the soul flag.

In this case, I have to use that jade slip which contains an attack at the Second Heavenly Layer of the Void Fragmentation Realm.

Ning Fan made up his mind and patted his pouch to take out the fourth Void Fragmentation Realm jade slip. All of a sudden, a huge commotion erupted in the surroundings.

“What?! Zhou Ming actually has another Void Fragmentation Realm jade slip!?”

“Holy Crap! How many Void Fragmentation Realm jade slips does this man have exactly…? How heaven-defying is his luck to possess so many of those jade slips!”

“However, Marquis You Gui’s soul flag is extremely powerful. The destructive power of the three previous Void Fragmentation Realm jade slips were noticeably only at the First Heavenly Layer of Void Fragmentation Realm. They would be unable to go against the power of the soul flag that is filled with eight hundred million souls… This time, Ning Fan can no longer hurt Marquis You Gui.”

Marquis You Gui’s eyes were blood red. He already could not wait to kill Ning Fan and vent out his anger.

He suddenly waved the soul flag and then countless evil spirits rushed out from it. The vicinity of several hundred thousand li* (500m per li) was teeming with black ghost spirits!

In the sky, there were a total of eight hundred million ghosts but the qi each of them were giving off was not even at the Vein Opening Realm!

Then, the ghosts began devouring each other. In a matter of seconds, the eight hundred million ghosts were reduced to one hundred million. But the aura force of all those ghosts had risen to the Harmonious Spirit Realm!

After that, the one hundred million ghosts continued on devouring each other and only thirty million of them were left. The aura force of the remaining ghosts reached the Gold Core Realm!

The process repeatedly occurred. When there were only one million ghosts left, every ghost’s aura force had attained the Nascent Soul Realm!

When only ten thousand ghosts were left, their aura forces had reached the Divine Transformation Realm!

After they devoured each other again, the ten thousand Divine Transformation Realm ghosts were reduced to one hundred Void Refinement Realm evil spirits that had hideous and ferocious faces.

The one hundred Void Refinement Realm evil spirits went through the same process and only one evil spirit was left standing in midair in the end. It only had one eye and its body was ten thousand zhang* (3.33m per zhang) tall.

However, the qi of this single-eyed evil spirit had reached the First Heavenly Layer of the Void Fragmentation Realm!

“A Void Fragmentation Realm soul! The eight hundred million souls actually condensed into a Void Fragmentation Realm soul!” Every cultivator in the audience seats turned pale!

Those who were below the Vein Opening Realm were mortals while those below the Void Fragmentation Realm were ants… Even though the Absolute Void Stage was only one step away from the Void Fragmentation Realm, when a person advances to the Void Fragmentation Realm, it would be impossible for them to lose to any Void Refinement Realm cultivator!

In the snowy sky, that single-eyed evil spirit floated in the air. Every trace of its aura force could instill fear into everyone because it was the aura force of the First Heavenly Layer of Void Fragmentation Realm!

Using eight hundred million souls to condense a Void Fragmentation Realm evil spirit. Marquis You Gui’s means was truly heaven-defying!

“Hahaha! You can die now!”

Marquis You Gui let out a cacophony of laughter. As he waved the soul flag, that single-eyed evil spirit immediately let out a bone-chilling roar and lifted its foot to crush Ning Fan.

The force of its stomp was equivalent to an attack at the First Heavenly Layer of Void Fragmentation Realm. Moreover, the force was slightly stronger than the attacks from the previous jade slips!

“Break!”

With a calm expression, Ning Fan crushed the fourth Void Fragmentation Realm jade slip.

No one believed that this Void Fragmentation Realm jade slip would withstand that Void Fragmentation Realm evil spirit. However, the moment Ning Fan broke the jade slip in his hand, Marquis You Gui who was laughing wildly was nearly scared to death!

“This isn’t the power of an attack at the First Heavenly Layer of the Void Fragmentation Realm! This is… of the Second Heavenly Layer of the Void Fragmentation Realm!”

*Bang*

As the jade slip with a stored attack of the Second Heavenly Layer of Void Fragmentation Realm broke, a gigantic figure suddenly appeared in front of Ning Fan. It raised one of its fingers and touched the single-eyed evil spirit.

Even though it was merely a light and gentle touch, it contained unimaginable power. The single-eyed evil spirit looked as if it had received a heavy blow and was immediately sent flying away like a kite with its string cut. It was actually injured by a finger of the gigantic figure!

“W-What is this?!” Countless old monsters fearfully stared at the gigantic figure which Ning Fan had just summoned.

Su Yan, who was currently protecting Feng Xueyan and the others at a corner, raised her head. The moment she saw the shadow in the sky, she suddenly felt a strong urge to shed her tears.

That was a feeling of connection between their bloodlines that she could not describe with words.

The gigantic shadow in the sky was a giant that was several million zhang* (3.33m per zhang) tall. He wore a set of devil armor and had a head with two devil horns but his appearance was vague. He sat on top of a large throne.

Besides that, there were also fuzzy figures of several hundred hundred thousand zhang* (3.33m per zhang) giants standing behind the devil-horned giant who seemed to be his servants.

A wave of boundless ancient devil qi swept across the Northern Cold Country.

In front of these giants, the single-eyed devil that was only ten thousand zhang* (3.33m per zhang) tall was as tiny as a bug.

“This is… the progenitor! This is the shadow of my Mist Horn Clan’s progenitor! This jade slip was actually left behind by the progenitor!” Su Yan’s heart throbbed.

“Ling…Jiao…”

The voice of the giant on the throne was inarticulate. He slightly tilted his head to glance at Ning Fan beside him. Because it did not have a face, his emotion was indistinguishable. However, Ning Fan could guess that the reason why the giant was looking at him was to see who had used his stored attack.

When he sensed the Mo Luo Ancestral Talisman in Ning Fan, the giant’s body clearly flinched and showed great respect to him.

When the giant’s gaze shifted toward Marquis You Gui and the single-eyed giant, Ning Fan could feel that the giant must be wearing a disdainful expression toward Marquis You Gui even though his expression was clearly not visible.

Marquis You Gui who had always been self-conceited and arrogant actually felt insignificant when he stood before this gigantic shadow.

Before he could find out more about the origin of the giant on the throne, he had already acted according to Ning Fan’s will. He lifted one of his fingers and pressed it down against Marquis You Gui. The devil qi it emanated was tremendous!

As the finger was thrusting downward at Marquis You Gui, the entire internal sea began to shake. The power which the giant gave out far exceeded everyone’s imagination!

Despite having Void Fragmentation Realm qi, the single-eyed evil spirit was instantly pulverized into meat paste under the finger of the giant!

Marquis You Gui’s expression was filled with shock. At the moment he faced the giant’s finger, he could only feel that all of his magic power was being burned away until he was left with nothing!

“T-This is the Mist Horn Clan’s progenitor’s ‘Nihility Finger’! It’s a great technique that can turn all life and cultivation power into nothingness! If it was a common Second Heavenly Layer Void Fragmentation Realm jade slip, it would still be fine… However, this is the jade slip left behind by the Mist Horn Clan’s progenitor. Even if the stored attack is only at the Second Heavenly Layer of the Void Fragmentation Realm, its destructive power is far beyond the ordinary standard of that cultivation realm! I definitely can’t withstand it with my power alone!”

Marquis You Gui stole a glance at Ning Fan when he was overwhelmed with panic. For the first time, he felt scared and terrified of this young man.

He did not expect that Ning Fan actually obtained the jade slip containing a stored attack of the Mist Horn Clan’s progenitor. Moreover, this jade slip’s attack was the progenitor’s strongest attack – Nihility Finger!

There is no way I can withstand it! I’ll die!

“No! I can’t accept this! I am unwilling to accept this!”

Marquis You Gui took out all of his secret treasures from his storage pouch. All of them were the treasures he planned on using in his vengeance on the Thunder Sovereign in the future.

However, in order to preserve his life at this critical moment, he no longer cared about any of the resentment or grudges he had and cast all those treasures into the sky.

Countless secret treasures flew toward the enormous finger of the giant but all of them were reduced to nothingness under the finger’s power.

Every time Marquis You Gui lost one of his secret treasures, he would cough out a mouthful of blood because he had refined all of them with his life!

Each of those secret treasures was enough to strike fear into Absolute Void Stage experts. Furthermore, some of them were things that even experts at the First Heavenly Layer of Void Fragmentation Realm would covet.

However, no matter how many secret treasures he threw at the incoming finger, they could only slow it down slightly. None of them was able to withstand the Nihility Finger at all!

“No! This can’t be the end! There’s no way… Ah!”

In the next moment, the enormous finger landed, turning the arrogant Marquis You Gui into nothing. Blood curdling screams echoed across the air!

A wave of chills washed over the hearts of all cultivators who witnessed the fight!

Ning Fan had just used four Void Fragmentation Realm jade slips to kill Marquis You Gui. What he did was just too insane!

Marquis You Gui who was an Absolute Void Stage expert actually perished just like that!

On the Ghost Eye Clan’s seats, all cultivators, regardless of their cultivation bases, felt an imminent catastrophe.

Marquis You Gui’s stubbornness had already gone against the Pill Sovereign’s orders. He had already committed a serious crime by attacking Ning Fan.

Now, however, Marquis You Gui has died. Who else in the Ghost Eye Clan could resist Ning Fan? To put it simply, the Ghost Eye Clan was on the brink of being annihilated at this very moment!

When the six Void Glimpse Stage cultivator and the only Void Inquiry Stage expert recalled how crazy Ning Fan was when he took out the Void Fragmentation Realm jade slips without any hesitation just to fight Marquis You Gui, cold sweat ran down their backs.

How could they resist such a mad devil lord?! They must run!

Ning Fan’s eyes flashed with a cold light. Since he had already killed Marquis You Gui, he must completely eliminate the roots.

There were one hundred thousand members of the Ghost Eye Clan who had come to the Giant Devil Clan on this occasion. However, when Ning Fan spread his sword sense, the cultivators who were below the Divine Transformation Realm could not withstand his attacks at all.

Every single one of the Gold Core Realm and Nascent Soul Realm cultivators were cut into pieces by the sword sense. Blood splashed across the vast sky, dying the ground red. This scene was extremely horrifying!

When Ning Fan turned, he transformed into a six thousand zhang* (3.33m per zhang) tall reckless devil giant. Treading in the snowy sky, he waved his hands to grab the fleeing Divine Transformation Realm cultivators. Then, he put them into his mouth and literally chewed them to pieces before swallowing them.

This reckless devil giant was vastly different from an ordinary giant. A common giant would not have this kind of fearsome aura force at all!

Many magic treasures were sent toward the giant’s body but none of them could damage him. The physical defense of this reckless devil giant had already reached an extremely shocking level!

By just delivering a few attacks, the members of the Ghost Eye Clan were practically wiped out, leaving only the seven Void Refinement Realm elders.

If these seven people were to die too, the Ghost Eye Clan would soon be eliminated without even needing Ning Fan to attack their territory. It was because they no longer had a Void Refinement Realm expert protecting them so others would naturally invade them and wipe out the rest of them!

“I’m going to fight you to the death!” A Void Glimpse Stage old man with white hair charged at Ning Fan with a gloomy expression. However, he was crushed into meat paste under the giant’s foot in the next second.

Another Void Glimpse Stage burly man dashed toward the reckless devil giant’s eyes with a flying sword. However, the giant opened his jaw and took him and his sword into his mouth, chewing him alive.

The four Void Glimpse Stage used a formation technique that gave off strong devil qi. However, as the giant hurled one of his hands toward them, the four of them including the formation were destroyed upon impact. Even their primordial spirits were unable to flee.

That remaining Void Inquiry Stage expert of the Ghost Eye Clan was already filled with terror. He tried to escape with all his might but the giant caught up with him by just making a single step.

“From today onward, the Ghost Eye Clan no longer exists in this world!”

The giant mercilessly opened his mouth and swallowed the last Void Inquiry Stage expert of the Ghost Eye Clan.

Then, Ning Fan returned to his normal form and descended on the jade platform. His eyes coldly scanned past the cultivators of the one hundred plus sects. Each of them were as quiet as cicadas in winter. None of them was brave enough to fight him!

“Who else wants to get Feng Xueyan?!”

Ning Fan’s eyes shifted to each of the Void Refinement Realm sects and every single one of the Void Refinement Realm old monsters quickly averted their eyes.

When Ning Fan’s gaze fell upon the Lan Ling Sect’s seats, he saw King Lan Ling staring back at him with a hostile expression.

“I heard that King Lan Ling wants to teach me a lesson. Is that true?”

“So what if it is?!” King Lan Ling gritted his teeth. He had to admit that Ning Fan’s baleful qi was so strong that he could not endure it when he killed Marquis You Gui.

“I’m right here. You, Lan Ling. Do you have the guts to fight me?!”

“Impudent!” King Lan Ling was a proud and arrogant person. How could he endure such humiliation?

He leapt onto the jade platform and stood with his hands clasped behind his back while facing Ning Fan. He had that air of a person with great capabilities.

Aside from that, his handsome appearance and the falling orchids around him made him look even more extraordinary and outstanding.

His eyes, however, were sharp and vicious.

“Even if you possess a Void Fragmentation Realm stored attack, I can still easily win against you!”

“There is no need for me to use a Void Fragmentation Realm stored attack to deal with your lowly second primordial spirit.”

“You’re courting death!” King Lan Ling erupted in anger.

…

In the Giant Devil Broken World, all eight ancestors including King Ju Lu were amazed by Ning Fan’s frightening strength.

“Impossible! When this young man left the Northern Cold Country in the past, he definitely did not have such powerful strength! He could even kill that old man, Marquis You Gui… There is no way for this to be possible!” A vicious woman’s voice said.

“I wonder if this kid will disrupt our plan…” One of the old ancestors said with a worried tone.

“No worries. Marquis You Gui is already dead. As long as Lan Ling dies too, the nourishment needed for this Boundless Evil Sea Formation will be filled. Once the grand formation is successfully activated, this kid will, without a doubt, die as well. I originally thought of sacrificing Feng Xueyan’s life in another ten years. However, since the one hundred plus sects have come here to their deaths, the plan can be brought forward. Besides, we will also no longer need any Sinful Ocean Pills!” King Ju Lu made a wicked smile.

“Does that mean… we can break free from the slave marks of the Giant Devil Clan after today?” Another ancestor asked in excitement.

“Of course!” King Ju Lu was sneering inwardly. After today, everyone could break free from the slave marks because everyone would die!

Only he, King Ju Lu, would be able to survive and break through to the Void Fragmentation Realm in one try!

Old Ancestor Ju Yan’s eyes were filled with unease. He kept having the feeling that King Ju Lu’s smile was rather cold and it somehow gave him chills in his spine…

“Do we really have to sacrifice Xueyan…?” Ju Yan closed his eyes miserably.
