Ning Fan’s five-meter tall body with his two-meter sword and the silvery light his body emitted made countless of old experts suck in a breath of cold air.
A five meter tall body was considered an extremely common body refining technique in Yue Country, but the silvery light radiating from his body gave the old experts a sense of threat down their spines.
“This-this is, the Silver Bone realm!” Some of the old experts immediately exclaimed! They were very astounded, because if this was really the Silver Bone realm, Ning Fan’s physical strength alone was already enough to fight a Nascent Soul cultivator, and it would make him the number one person in Yue Country.
But immediately, a meticulous old expert discovered that although the silvery light radiating from Ning Fan’s body was powerful, it still lacked something from the rumored ‘silvery light converging into the bones’.
“It turns out that it isn’t the true Silver Bone realm… almost scared this old man to death…”
The old ancestor of Great Demon Sect, Ju Bo, a late Gold Core body refining cultivator that came from Wu Country, wiped off the beads of cold sweat from his forehead. He heard that some kind of grand event was going on as he passed by Yue Country, but he had never thought that he would see such a shocking scene.
One should know that there was an ancient body refining technique named Great Demon Technique, a demon technique that originated from the Endless Sea in Rain Immortal World. He was only able to reach the stage of silver transparent body after five hundred years of drudgery training. That was already strong enough for him to kill Gold Core cultivators, but it still seemed slightly weaker than Ning Fan’s silvery light.
He heaved a sigh of relief after realizing that Ning Fan wasn’t possessing the true Silver Bone, but a trace of admiration started to grow in his eyes for the first time.
As for those non-body refining cultivators, despite knowing that it wasn’t the true Silvery Bone, they were still not able to determine the true physical strength of Ning Fan. In other words, only Ju Bo knew that Ning Fan had the strength of punching Gold Core experts to death.
“The number one person amongst cultivators under the Gold Core realm…*cough* *cough* *cough*, the people of Yue Country have underestimated this kid. In this old man’s point of view, there are only very few early Gold Core experts who can defeat this kid.”
Ju Bo made the evaluation based on Ning Fan’s body refining technique. If he knew that Ning Fan had other trump cards, he would never make such an easy conclusion.
As for Bai Feiteng, he apparently still didn’t know Ning Fan’s ability.
Even though he could see the power of Ning Fan’s physical cultivation technique, he still failed to see the extraordinariness of the silver light. So, he concluded that he would be able to withstand Ning Fan’s attacks. Even if it was too much for him to handle, his speed would certainly surpass Ning Fan’s. That was why a body refining technique had to be accompanied by a movement technique, otherwise no matter how powerful a person was, if he can’t catch up to his opponent, his power would only be useless.
Regardless of how powerful Ning Fan’s physique was, he was doomed to be defeated if his speed couldn’t catch up to his opponent.
“This kid is after all still too young…” Bai Feiteng smiled coldly. Before him, the giant Ning Fan lifted the huge sword and charged forward like a frenzied devil. As he stepped on the ice rainbow, his speed was already fast enough to pursue any early Gold Core cultivator, but such speed was still not enough to match Bai Feiteng’s!
Moreover, in order to assure his own safety, Bai Feiteng had other hidden means. He stepped on the ground creating a 300 hundred meter icy light that condensed into an icy light immortal cloud that had four Cloud Marks inscribed on it.
“*Hiss!* Four Marks Immortal Cloud! This Bai Feiteng actually has such means. Does this mean that not even an early Nascent Soul expert could overtake this man if the latter isn’t using Instant Movement?”
“Not only that, this immortal cloud is a Natal Immortal Cloud!” Elder Song Feng of Great Void Sect’s eyes turned grim as he spoke solemnly.
Natal Immortal Cloud!
When these words were spread out, it instantly caused a commotion from the crowd of cultivators. Only an immortal cloud of supreme rank had a chance to be refined into a Natal Immortal Cloud that could be kept inside one’s body and had the spirit augmentation divine ability. If the level of Cloud Marks were upgraded, it could even increase the level of the Natal Immortal Cloud.
In short, this was an immortal cloud that could still be enhanced!
Elder Song Feng was staring at Bei Feiteng with uncontrollable fear. Ten years ago, he and Bai Feiteng had a match that lasted several days and nights, but no victor was determined, however, Bai Feiteng didn’t use the Natal Immortal Cloud during their battle, this only meant that he was holding back his ability. Now, it seemed like even Song Feng, also known as the rival of Bai Feiteng, had underestimated his opponent.
Once the Natal Immortal Cloud was summoned, Bai Feiteng moved in lightning speed. He retreated 300 meters back almost immediately, pulling himself further away from Ning Fan.
At the same time, he patted his storage pouch and summoned an astounding icy light flying sword. Every cultivator who knew this sword sat upright and revealed a fiery gaze from their eyes.
It was no ordinary sword! Its body was like an icy rainbow, it could move as fast as lightning and a vague dragon’s roar could be heard from it as it flew.
“Hornless Ice Dragon Sword! This is one of Revered Bai’s finest magical treasures, however, he already summoned it at the beginning of their battle!”
“*Tsk* *Tsk* *Tsk*, look at Bai Feiteng’s flying sword technique. It’s the imperial swordsman law named Seven Sword Art that came from the wind sword pavilion of Chu Country – a mid-ranked cultivation country. According to rumors, there are only a few of them who know such a difficult swordsman law, but he was able to cultivate it. He deserves to be called Revered Bai.”
The sound of tongues clicking and praises could be heard without end and when these words fell on Bai Feiteng’s ears, he felt particularly delighted.
The reason he summoned the Natal Immortal Cloud and Hornless Ice Dragon Sword was because Jiang Chen’s Qi was overwhelming and his silvery light was too strange.
Despite his arrogance, Bai Feiting was still a cautious man. It was just that when he saw Ning Fan couldn’t catch up to him this whole time, he started to reveal a trace of pride and the dread inside of him turned into a cold sneer.
“How can a dignified cultivator learn something so burly, something that only uses a massive force to swing and slash? And that huge sword of yours seems funny and clumsy. How could it possibly catch up to agile cultivators? In that case, let this old man teach you what a sword really is. Flying Sword! Go!”
This time, Bai Feiteng no longer held back. He kept the immortal cloud. A chilling intent was emitted from his eyes. With a sudden switch of spell, the flying Hornless Ice Dragon Sword immediately let out a howl; then spiraled along with cold Qi towards Ning Fan’s direction.
For an instant, Ning Fan’s body was enshrouded by the cold Qi, he could vaguely feel his magical power turning sluggish. 70% of his magical power had been restricted by the Qi.
“This is a Spirit Augmentation Divine Ability, Ice Lock!”
Ning Fan’s eyes twitched, and immediately, he saw through the technique of the cold QI.
The Hornless Ice Dragon Sword! This is a high-grade-early-rank magical treasure and one of the finest magical treasures of Revered Bai. The Ice Lock divine ability was attached to it and its cold Qi could envelop the surrounding area, causing the enemy’s magical strength to be suppressed. For Harmonious Spirit cultivators, at least 30% of their magical power would be frozen!
Such Spirit Augmentation Divine Ability seemed to be a Nascent realm ability, he hadn’t expected that Bai Feiteng had acquired such an ability.
Immediately after Ning Fan’s magical power was frozen, a flash of light shot out from the Hornless Ice Dragon Sword towards Ning Fan’s chest.
Sure enough, Bai Feiteng’s imperial swordsman law was a unique technique, freezing the opponent’s cultivation, then suddenly sending a lethal strike. If Bai Feiteng hadn’t shifted his aim an inch away from Ning Fan’s vital point, it was afraid that Ning Fan would already be dead on the spot, however, even if the attack only penetrated through Ning Fan’s chest without hitting his vital point, Ning Fan would still be severely injured.
A cold light glittered in Ning Fan’s eyes. He had nothing to fear even though his enemy was using an extraordinary technique!
A trace of black fire flashed in his eyes, and almost instantly, the cold Qi that was freezing his magical power was incinerated to nothingness.
The recovered Ning Fan stared at the oncoming sword. His eyes sparkled as he swung the huge sword and created a gale, slashing at the tip of the icy sword.
When Bai Feiteng saw Ning Fan’s reaction from a distance, he uttered a cold sneer. “Ignorance! Your sword has no magical power and its grade and rank is evidently not a good as mine. As such, your sword would surely be crushed by rashly colliding your sword with mine.”
But in the next moment, his sneer turned to astonishment.

It was broken! But it wasn’t Ning Fan’s huge sword that was broken, it was his Hornless Dragon Ice Sword!
When the power of Ning Fan’s huge sword was unleashed, Bai Feiteng only found out that the bulky-looking and ridiculous sword was actually a peak-medium-grade magical treasure!
Furthermore, there was a vague rumble of lightning when the two metals collided.
It wasn’t the huge body of the sword that crushed Revered Bai’s sword, it was the lightning intent in the sword, but it wasn’t a Spirit Augmentation Divine Ability! So what was it?!
“This was the heavenly tribulation lightning-string of lightning water! Although it’s extremely indistinct, there is no mistake about it… This kid does have a great luck to forge a divine weapon with lightning water.” The beggar’s eyes sparkled while staring at Ning Fan.
The force of the strike was 5000 kilograms! When the huge sword slashed on the Hornless Dragon Ice Sword, it created a thunderous sound, and immediately, cracks appeared on the ice sword. The brightness of the sword grew dim. Then, it spiraled backwards to its wielder.
Bai Feiteng revealed a glum expression and held the Hornless Dragon Ice Sword. Given how serious the sword had been damaged, it would be difficult to restore it to its peak state!
“Ning Fan, this old man has been lenient to you, so why did you damage my magical treasure?!” Revered Bai bellowed.
“Excuse me? Inflicting me a serious injury is considered ‘lenient’? Very well, today, I won’t kill you, I’ll just injure you so severely that’ll be ‘lenient’ to you!”
Spirit sense flashed past Ning Fan’s eyes; in the next moment, he vanished without a trace!
It’s not just Bai Feiteng who felt a shiver run down his spine, but also all the peak Golden Immortal experts and even Sinister Sparrow, none of them could sense Ning Fan’s location or where he would send his next attack!
“What level of Body Concealing Art is this?!” Bai Feiteng’s facial expression darkened as he couldn’t see Ning Fan’s route of attack. Because he couldn’t decide where he should move with the immortal cloud, he simply distanced himself away from the scene.
Ning Fan’s silhouette emerged behind him while he was still slightly hesitating. His hair stood on end. Then, instantly, he flew backwards using the immortal cloud at maximum speed!
“You can’t escape from me!”
Ning Fan’s eyes turned cold. He swung the huge sword violently, creating a flash of lightning that brought the accelerating immortal cloud to a halt!
This wasn’t body lock, but the heavenly tribulation lock!
“This-this is… not possible!”
After breaking through to the late Gold Core realm, a cultivator would confront the heavenly tribulations one after another. The power of the heavenly tribulation varied according to the lightning, fire and wind element, and its intensity, but there was one thing in common amongst all the tribulations. There was absolutely no way for one to avoid them.
This was because the heavenly tribulation was the Heaven’s might and will. No matter how smart a person was, how could he ever hide himself from the Heavens? Either it was the Immortal Cloud Escaping Technique or the Nascent Instant Movement or Spirit Severing Big Teleportation Technique, none of them could help a person to slip past Heavens will. Once the person was locked by the Heavens will, that person had already fallen into a frozen mode. Even though he could still move his body, he wouldn’t be able to use any escaping technique!
The heavenly tribulation lock wasn’t the only thing that shocked Bai Feiteng, but also Ning Fan’s sword, Bai Feiteng could feel the Heaven’s might from the metal. Apart from Revered Bai, most of the old experts were also intrigued by Ning Fan’s sword.
However, Bai Feiteng didn’t have the time to stay in shock because Ning Fan’s sword was already right above his head.
As he didn’t cultivate Body Refining Technique, it made it impossible for him to escape from Ning Fan’s sword light. In that case, he could only face it head-on! In such a close distance, he wasn’t able to send out the flying sword to wound his enemy. As his reputation as the Revered Bai was at stake here, even if he had no way to run, he had to confront it with everything he got! This was the ruthlessness that had kept him alive until today.
Mercilessness glinted in his eyes. He lifted the Hornless Dragon Ice Sword, welcoming Ning Fan’s huge sword. In his opinion, no matter how physically strong Ning Fan was, Ning Fan’s magical power was a few realms lower than his. Plus, with the suppression he inflicted on Ning Fan’s magical power, it wouldn’t be hard for him to win the battle!
However, he underestimated Ning Fan’s physical strength too much!
The Ancient Beast Protecting Wristband on Ning Fan’s right wrist emitted a faint glow and a rush of demon Qi was channeled into his body, boosting his physical strength by 30 percent!
This strike would be as heavy as 6500 kilograms!
When both metals collided, Bai Feiteng felt a violent shake from his mouth before his mouth was torn open and blood flowed out. The massive force of his opponent’s sword was spread from his sword to his arm and chest, causing his blood and Qi to boil, and immediately, he spurted out a mouthful of blood and his sword slipped away from his grip. However, he still managed block Ning Fan’s sword strike!
However, Ning Fan was far from stopping. Another slash was made right after that!
The power of the second strike was even stronger, it initiated the might of lightning! Fear started to grow in Bai Feiteng’s heart, but he had no choice other than blocking this second slash. This time, he used the unfamiliar Gold Core sword intent named Heavenly Devil Sword. He burned his blood essence and sent out a defensive attack forcefully.
In spite of that, Bai Feiteng’s blood and Qi went chaotic under the great shock, and he spurted another mouthful of blood out. His face began to pale. Apparently, the injuries he suffered weren’t light.
Nervousness overtook his composure. He bit the tip of his tongue with his teeth, preparing to utilize the blood escaping technique to escape from the heavenly tribulation lock, but Ning Fan’s sword was faster!
The bulky and huge sword was supposed to be heavy and slow, but when Ning Fan held it in his hands, it could move so free and fast, like it was made out of feather.
For the third strike, Ning Fan activated the sword intent named White Bone Mountain!
Countless of White Bone Sword Shadow emerged within three hundred meters range. Above the sword light of the huge sword, all the killing intent had converge to form a blood-red line.
That line seemed unreal and illusory, but when it was captured by Bai Feiteng’s eyes, his expression changed to fright.
“Line… that’s the Line of Law! What sword intent is this?”
On the third strike, the Hornless Dragon Sword Ice was broken! Ning Fan’s sword intent swept across Bai Feiteng, causing him to spew out blood like crazy!
If it wasn’t for the blood escaping technique, he would have been injured badly by this strike!
His heart was filled with amazement. Quickly, he moved to a far distance away from Ning Fan, took out a purplish-red bead and crushed it.
Immediately, both of his eyes changed, his left eye turned purple and his right eye turned red, giving birth to an ability that could see through any concealing techniques. This made Ning Fan’s expression change slightly.
“Breaking Illusion Bead! It allows one to see through a Nascent cultivator’s concealing techniques and eradicate all illusions of Nascent realm formations. Its value is immeasurable… I had never thought that you would use such an item in a mere gambling match”
Ning Fan had yet to use his most powerful trump card, but Bai Feiteng had already been forced to a dead end.
It was true that he had become stronger, but it wouldn’t be easy to win this match by just using his physical strength.
Bai Feiteng was an opponent that couldn’t be underestimated. He was a man who had experienced numerous battles and seen countless deaths. He was able to block the previous three strikes that should have defeated him.
However, Ning Fan believed that if he persisted in the struggle, he would win as he believed that he had such capability!
Each and every cultivator on the Purple-Jade Sky Platform couldn’t help but be shocked upon seeing that Bai Feiteng used the Breaking Illusion Bead.
Initially, all of them were very optimistic about Revered Bai defeating Ning Fan.
But the reality showed the opposite: Ning Fan was the one who suppressed Revered Bai instead! Currently, Ning Fan wasn’t short of breath or anything, but Bai Feiteng had already suffered heavy injuries.
“This is…impossible!”
Bai Bi couldn’t believe what he saw. He understood that he lost to Ning Fan because of their gap in strength, but how could his father, a well-known person and had a cultivation higher than Ning Fan, be forced to such a state?!
The pride in his heart was crushed for the first time and turned into a trace of misery.
Not possible…Bai Bi gritted his teeth, but there was no way that he could change the fact.
Zhi He’s delicate mouth went wide while looking at the fight. She had never thought that her Brother Fan would be so powerful. Although Brother Fan had always been all-powerful in her heart, this was her first time seeing Ning Fan’s ruthlessness.
As for Lan Mei, she revealed a look of pride, as if she wanted to tell everyone that the heroic figure on the stage was her husband.
Si Wuxie, on the other hand, was the only one who had the opposite expression. Her eyes seemed gloomy from time to time, as if she was having some kind of conflicting thoughts. She shook her head wearily to brush off the thoughts, but there was no laughter that they usually had between her and Zhi He after that.
The beggar gazed at Ning Fan’s heroic huge sword with solemn eyes.
“Giant Sword… Ancient Fiendgod…is this kid trying to cultivate the Body and Essence Dual Cultivation…? This kid possess the Immemorial Evil Vein, but which is better, my Rain Sovereign Divine Vein or his Immemorial Evil Vein, I’m not sure…Ai! He’s just a junior after all. If I compare myself to him, I’m going to downgrade myself drastically…”
Compared to Bai Feiteng, this beggar obviously looked more heroic and carefree.
But when he thought about Ning Fan and Ning Fan’s wives who were going to win all his earnings away, he felt a pang of pain.
His Treasure Amassing Vase was a fake. It was used for cheating other people’s immortal jades and he had set up a gambling stall with much difficulty. Could it be that he had to give away all this fortune to Ning Fan and his girls?
Despite all that, he still had to cheer for Ning fan in his heart, hoping that Ning Fan would win.
If Ning Fan won, his earnings would offset the money he paid out to the winners, reaching a break-even.
But if Ning Fan lost or the outcome was a draw, he would have to pay a hundred or even a thousand times of the earnings he got. That would make him lose everything and become a real beggar.
“If I knew about this, I wouldn’t have come to Sinister Sparrow Sect to conduct my search… See, I’m losing all the fortune this time…En? What did I say just now?” The beggar forgot what he said once more.
Tiger’s mouth: The arc formed by the thumb and first finger of the hand.
