Holding Hands

For the past three months of voyage in Wei Country, Ning Fan didn’t cultivate demonic arts. Instead, he used the Burning Blood to refine Burning Blood Pills.

The pills were Three Revolution Pills which could improve the Colossal Bone Secret Arts’ level. They can also raise the Body Refining Realm.

But a side effect existed in consuming pills. The pills would make the one who take it experience agonizing pain or worse, turn them mad.

The madness could only be appeased by killing someone.

After discovering that one had to join forces with Jin Country’s cultivators to eliminate the demons in order to borrow the Teleportation Formation, temptation as well as caution appeared in Ning Fan’s mind.

Involving himself in the killings was a good chance for him to release his pent-up killing intent after consuming the Burning Blood Pills.

However,he was cautious about the man who moved towards their direction with haste.

He was at Mid Nascent Soul Realm and his intentions were unknown.

When he called out Suqiu’s name, he immediately turned into a luminescent spot and glittered in the sky. After a few breaths, he leapt across hundreds of li and landed on the Seven Apricot Voyage Ship.

Ning Fan was incapable of teleporting at such speed.

That man had an appearance of a young man in his twenties, but the age of his bones were approximately seven hundred years. He was doubtlessly an old monster.

His tall and robust physique was covered by a silver robe. A glint of madness that was impossible to miss could be seen within his eyes.

His name was Yun Kuang. He was another of Rain Palace’s divine messengers!

His emergence caused an uproar among the Gold Core Realm old monsters at the boundary of the country.

“It’s him! ‘Night Blade’ Yun Kuang!”

“He achieved Nascent Formation in just five hundred years and broke through the Mid-Nascent Soul Realm within two hundred years. He was ranked top fifty among the divine messengers in the southeastern continent!”

Night Blade… It was said that he always carried out duties assigned by the Rain Palace alone at night. At the arrival of dawn, he would return with the targets’ heads, successfully accomplishing the mission. As such, the name of “Night Blade” began to spread.

He was known for his wild and arrogant character. After receiving the inheritance of the Divine Intent Stone, he not only learned the forged divine intent, but also integrating a wisp of his madness with it.

That incident was regarded as something significant by one of the Revered Elders of Rain Palace in the southeastern continent.

It was truly beyond everyone’s expectations to deliver such an expert to assist Great Jin. Great Jin’s demon tide was utterly fearsome.

Upon meeting him, even the haughty Gold Core Realm expert of Jin bowed his head down and greeted him respectfully.

“Revered messenger!”

“Drop the formalities.”

He waved his hand and stood on the ship, facing Yin Suqiu. A leisurely broad smile formed on his face and his madnessreceded.

Ning Fan frowned slightly at his appearance.

A person who achieved Nascent Formation in five hundred years and broke through to the Mid Nascent Soul Realm in seven hundred years could only be ranked within the top fifty divine messengers in the southeastern continent.

He was extraordinary but the background of Rain Palace was even more unfathomable.

As his forged divine intent was forged with his madness, his aura of arrogance gave off great pressure as it began to sweep across the surroundings just by standing on the ship.

He deliberately avoided exerting his aura on Suqiu but released it to Ning Fan and Jing Zhuo without any reservations.

Jing Zhuo let out a deep snort and his face reddened. Although he was already at the Half-Step Nascent Soul Realm, he couldn’t withstand such intimidating pressure.

On the other hand, Ning Fan firmly remained on his original posture while facing the pressure.

“Hmm?”

Yun Kuang was inwardly shocked. He then studied Ning Fan with his spirit sense but disregarded him after discovering that he was just a Half-Step Gold Core Realm cultivator.

Originally, his intention of releasing his pressure was to gain awe from Jing Zhuo who was at Half-Step Nascent Soul Realm.
