Yin Plucking Finger’s Power

“Oh, really? Ning Fan? Black Evil´s Master? How funny, only Harmonious Spirit yet you still dare to wear the ‘Black Evil’ mantle; you truly do not know the immensity of the heaven and earth…”

Inside the Orchid Temple, the Nascent Soul demoness dryly smiled and didn’t put Ning Fan within her eyes at all.

If the old monster came to cause trouble, then she would be somewhat dreadful because she — for some reason —knew the origin of the old monster. Ning Fan ah… Each year there were so many juniors that did not discern life from death and came to the Orchid Temple to court death… Wasn’t this also the case?

Since when could a Harmonious Spirit cultivator be considered as the Black Evil Master… Black Evil, was it no longer worth anything….

This boy’s appearance was actually very handsome and might not make a bad dual cauldron… But to come and destroy sects, this was too early.

‘This boy is lucky be meeting me. If he met other people, most likely… he would be captured and trained as a slave...’

The demoness thought this but immediately changed her expression the next moment.

She looked at the night sky above and saw Ning Fan’s body forming a Black Flame made from ice and fire. Yin and Yang fire runes appeared on his sword like a bright light in the tranquil night sky.

“This is… Yin Yang harmonization… Earth Vein Demonic Flame — Black Evil Flames, but it is fused with ice energy… how strange…” The demoness’ eyes were a bit startled. Ning Fan’s fire and ice sword’s power was not strong and only fatal at the Harmonious Spirit realm, but it was very mysterious and far beyond the realm of Void Fragmentation…

Amongst them was a strange power that was able to fuse ice and fire…

This power was beyond her comprehension… This was the mysteriousness of the Yin Yang Locket that she was unaware of.

She subtly glanced and had some interest in Ning Fan. She actually wanted to see what amusing things this boy could do.

Suddenly, she saw Ning Fan slightly move his sword and a fiery awe-inspiring sword energy rushed forward as the light illuminated the moon, dragon roars broke the night-sky.

Harmonious Spirit sword intent, the first sword intent of Dugu, Fire Transformation Sword!

The power of this sword was not enough to move the demoness, but this sword’s origin… was too great!

“Fire Transformation Sword of the Sword World… ‘Sword King’s secret sword’!”

Her blossom lips slightly parted in secret astonishment. This sword was absolutely the secret sword of the Sword World’s Godking, there was no mistake… Forty years ago, the girl who followed behind the old monster was also a person who knew this sword, and they were from the Sword World. But why does this boy know this sword…

On top of that, this sword’s origin was too great and shouldn’t be used recklessly like this…

With her other identity, she knew a little bit about the secrets of the Sword World so she was naturally surprised. If it was someone else, they wouldn’t have been so alarmed.

Ning Fan, with an emotionless expression, clearly tracked the movements of the tens of thousands of dried vines that pierced forward like blades.

He slightly moved his sword, and the wind also followed. The fiery sword slashed forward black crescent shaped sword energies and rendered the dried vines into ash the moment they met, just like the wind blowing apart something rotten.

The demoness was amazed. She was a dryad who was afraid of fire. She only used ten percent of her power, but it was not something that could be destroyed by someone of Ning Fan’s level.

This person was not bad with only a Harmonious Spirit cultivation even if she was showing mercy.

“You are able to block one attack from me, maybe ordinary intermediate-stage Harmonious Spirit cultivators are not your match… ‘Dan Transference’...”

The demoness let out a breath of her Nascent Soul energy and activated the Dan Transference technique. Only Gold Core cultivators were able to learn this technique by using dan energy to double the power of techniques.

She did not use a Nascent Soul level attack because she noticed that beating Ning Fan, who was only at Harmonious Spirit, only required Gold Core level magic.

The burnt vines all reappeared in the night sky after she released her Nascent Soul breath and twisted together to form a one hundred zhang tall evil tree with hundreds of branches and one thousand poisonous vines along with ten thousand thorns. The evil tree took root in the mountain. As its branches shook, the mountain fibrillated as well with falling rocks everywhere.

After performing the technique, the demoness changed her mind and removed some magic since she did not want to take Ning Fan’s life. She only wanted to test him because she became a bit curious.

However, the evil tree was formed from a spell and it already had a bit of spirit awareness.

At this moment, Ning Fan was facing the evil tree who resembled a Gold Core old devil. However, the evil tree seemed to prioritize defense against the flames. It would be difficult to garner some advantage with just fire power…

There was no hope of victory, but by utilizing the Snow Treading Art, Ning Fan wouldn’t necessarily lose.

He activated the Snow Treading Art and his body turned into an elegant ice brilliance that danced in the night curtain.

One move traveled one thousand zhang away. This speed was not less than the evil tree. Plus, the evil tree’s body was gigantic so it had an even harder time chasing Ning Fan.

Gracefully soaring fast in the sky like a Roaming Dragon, Ning Fan appeared like the crescent moon and escaped by stomping on the snow… Sometimes, Ning Fan even destroyed the evil tree’s attack with his Fire Transformation Sword.

His cultivation was greatly below that of the evil tree, but his sword was both sharp and precise.

As it began to clearly see Ning Fan’s sword angle, there were a few times when the evil tree could hurt Ning Fan, but the demoness secretly stopped its attack and offsetted its direction.

One person along with his one sword perplexed the demoness as she continued to watch. In her eyes appeared a Sword God wearing a white robe. The other person also fluttered like an Immortal and was a bit similar to Ning Fan…

She was suddenly startled; could this boy in front be….

‘But, how can there be such a coincidence… how can…’
