- Chapter 176 1 (1/2)

Sword Finger, Mountain Crush!

Inside the ten thousand zhang Tian Chi Waterfall[1], a white-haired man in dark robes was standing with his hands behind his back. He was Revered Snow. A slight nervousness could be seen on his face.

Ning Fan sat cross-legged in front of him and drew the earth fire from the ground to refine pills. The other Nascent Soul Realm cultivators left and carried on with their duties such as guarding the city and eliminating the demons as their help wasn’t needed to cure Revered Snow. The final battle would commence once Revered Snow recovered… Currently, the threat that Ju Shan Guan faced could be considered to have lessened by a bit.

When Ning Fan took out the Dan Fragmentation Cauldron, Revered Snow’s eyes narrowed!

When Ning Fan’s finger drew four circles of flames in front of the cauldron, his eyes squinted once more!

Although that cauldron was an Early High Grade Realm magical treasure, it was forged using the Divine Scrap Metal of the Devil World. Besides, it was fortified with the Nascent Soul Realm Divine Ability, ‘Body Seal’. Actually, this magical treasure was customized to the Old Devil’s needs by using the rare treasures of the world after he suffered the injuries. With his Late Harmonious Spirit Realm magic power, he could only put Early High Grade Realm magical treasures to good use.

Moreover, the cauldron was unimaginably tough as it was made using Divine Scrap Metal. By just looking at the materials used to create this cauldron, it was comparable to “The Top Ten Cauldrons of Rain World”.

“Sure enough, he is the disciple of Deacon Han who had already gone to the Sword World. As such, he left this magical treasure to his disciple…”

As Ning Fan was drawing the flames in circular motion, Revered Snow was worried at first. After he saw the four circles of flames, joy filled his expression!

He might not know what exactly Nine Revolution of the Rivers was, but he knew it was an Ancient Pill Refining Technique!

Furthermore, the four circles of flames that Ning Fan drew had the strength to control the medicinal power of a thousand-year-old spiritual herb!

“Four circles… Do the circles symbolize that he is a Four Revolution Pill Master?!”

Revered Snow inwardly decided to believe Ning Fan. He then stood in silence, not daring to create any disturbance to him.

In Rain World, there were only a few hundred Four Revolution Pill Masters. Comparing a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator with a Four Revolution Pill Master, Revered Snow would regard the latter as a more significant individual!

A Four Revolution Pill Master below the age of 20 years old! He’s worthy enough for me to befriend as he possess such incredible potential!

Ning Fan who was refining pills wasn’t aware that Revered Snow no longer saw him as an enemy. It was the opposite, Revered Snow began to respect, trust and think of befriending him.

While refining pills, he explained to Revered Snow about his condition. Ning Fan was afraid that Revered Snow would lose his patience.

“Senior, you don’t have to worry about it. The poison is called “Absolute Yin Poison”. I once helped cure another person afflicted by it. The remedy is a Low Grade Four Revolution Pill, Seven Yin Yang Profound Pill. It should be enough to heal you.”

Revered Snow didn’t expect that Ning Fan could still talk while in the process of refining pills. Now, he looked even more highly on Ning Fan’s Pill Refining Technique.

Only Intermediate Four Revolution Pill Master can refine Low Grade Four Revolution Pills with ease, thus allowing that person to refine pills and talk at the same time. Is this young kid an Intermediate Four Revolution Pill Master?

Upon hearing the name of the poison, Revered Snow lost his composure.

“It was this poison!”

“Hmm? Senior has heard about this poison before?”

Ning Fan’s eyebrows rose. The name of the poison only existed in ancient records. Even the Old Devil didn’t know about it. It’s truly beyond his expectations that Revered Snow who was a mere Spirit Severing Realm cultivator had heard about it before.

“Hai. It now makes sense why I got afflicted with this poison… I went to the Dragon Vision Pond to save the ignorant Yun Lie from the demons. However, I was ambushed by the demon general. It was also at Early Spirit Severing Realm, just like me. After engaging in battle, we ended in a tie. He then transformed into a thousand zhang long carp and spurted a mouthful of bloody mist. Amidst the mist, there was a strand of black blood. The black blood penetrated through my spiritual armour easily and entered into my body. It was how I got poisoned. If I hadn’t retreat to the city, my cultivation realm would’ve surely been affected. Little friend Zhou, you might not know this but this poison is the special poison developed in the Land of Demons. In fact, it is refined by the Void Refinement Realm Demon Marshal using cold yin[2]. It is beyond my understanding how this demon general could get its hands on the poison.”

Revered Snow’s words were filled with regret. But aside from that, there was a trace of joy in his voice. He felt fortunate that he didn’t own Immemorial Divine Veins. Otherwise, the poison would have spread to his entire body, leaving him with no energy to even suppress it.

From what he could infer from the conversation, something sparked Ning Fan to contemplate. Although his mind was thinking about it, he was still keeping the flame for refining pills under control.

Absolute Yin Poison. So it is formerly developed by the demons. The Ancient Chaos Emperor doesn’t mention much about the demons’ poison. Perhaps it’s because the memory is fragmented. As for the Land of Demons, the Ancient Chaos Emperor seemed to know nothing about it. I presume that it should be something created after his generation.

Absolution Yin Poison. A demon’s poison… The Old Devil not only has White Demon Set and Emperor Moksha as enemies but also demons?

“May I know where the Land of Demons is?!” Ning Fan’s eyes glittered with ferocity.

“Ah. Since Little Friend Zhou wants to know, I can tell you all about it. It isn’t a secret after all. The Land of Demons is the ruins of the Ancient Demon World. It is a place like the Ancient Heavenly Court and exists in the Broken World. One has to use special methods at a specific time in order to visit that world as the Void Passages Between Realms that connects to them is broken. In the Ancient Heavenly Court, there’s a well-known pond called Immortal Ascension Pond. Every time the Ancient Heavenly Court appears, the cultivators from the Nine Worlds would be thrilled. If any of them is fortunate enough to discover the pond in Ancient Heavenly Court, he or she could become an Immortal straightaway. However, it is a completely different scenario for the Ancient Demon World. Most of the cultivators from the Nine Worlds would choose not to enter the world in all cases. In that world, death awaits those who enter. It was because innumerable ancient demons are in deep slumber in that world and they are impressively strong. Occasionally, some powerful demons would awaken from slumber and crush the world’s boundary to enter the nine worlds. Then, a calamity would befall our world. Of course, the demons would be really happy to search for the entrance of the Land of Demons. But the only demons who know when and where to enter that place are the ‘Ten Emperors of the Demon World’.”

When speaking about the Ten Emperors of the Demon World, Revered Snow’s brows were knitted together.
