Chapter 234 1 (1/2)
The Changes of Divine Space Island
When Evil Light displayed his skills, every cultivator at the scene was stricken by fear.
When Evil Light fled after being defeated, everyone was terrified.
After all, Evil Light was an expert at the Spirit Severing Realm – a cultivation level which was dreamt and pursued by countless Nascent Soul Realm cultivators for their whole lives. Even though Evil Light was the weakest of the Spirit Severing Realm cultivators, none of the Nascent Soul Realm cultivators was on par with him…
But now, he was defeated with just a single finger by a Late Nascent Soul Realm cultivator?!
That finger congealed the Primordial Energy into momentum, condensing the Heavenly Spiritual Energy into the black sun and conjured a sword from the power of the sun and finally transformed the sword into threads… When the Second Finger was displayed, heaven broke and his enemy perished…
So this is the true power of Zhou Ming?! Among the 13 Spirit Severing Realm experts of the External Endless Sea, how many of them would be able to withstand that technique?!
Each of the old monsters’ eyes were anchored at the indifferent young man standing before Su Yao while gulping in fear.
For ordinary cultivators who entered the cultivation world, most of them played dumb to take advantage of other cultivators.
However, this Zhou Ming never knew how to keep a low profile for himself throughout his journey in the Endless Sea. Regarding his confrontation with Evil Light just now, the other cultivators would not have chosen to display their trump cards or ultimate techniques in the first round if they were the ones who fought Evil Light instead. They would at most try to probe their opponent’s capabilities. But Zhou Ming directly used his killing move in his first clash with Evil Light.
Though it looked reckless, it showed that Ning Fan’s philosophy of life was much wiser than theirs.
Without power, one surely has to lie low and avoid unwanted attention. If one had great power that is enough to rule over the External Endless Sea and overpower the Internal Endless Sea, why should he still hide his capability to himself?
If Ning Fan did not use his killing move in the first round, would it still be easy for him to do so after Evil Light saw through his capabilities and put up his guard?
Ning Fan felt unbearable pain from his immortal veins. That technique took quite a toll on him.
Even so, his eyes gradually turned calm, as if he was unaffected by the pain.
His gaze shifted from the eastern room to the northern room on the fourth floor and lingered on the western room.
From their respective rooms, Zhou Qing, Zhou Qi, Guan Xiong and Purple Gu walked out with a confused look.
All their auras pressed against Ning Fan, with the intention of testing the latter. However, in the face of the massive aura, Ning Fan remained composed and appeared to be unaffected.
He was not afraid of auras. At the very least, those aura below the Void Fragmentation Realm had no effect against him.
“I am Zhou Ming. I’ve killed someone here. Maybe some of you are displeased by my actions. If any of you is dissatisfied with me, by all means, fight me!”
Obviously, his words were for the Spirit Severing Realm experts from the three rooms of the fourth floor.
Guan Xiong was the first one to withdraw his aura. His eyes were filled with awe. With a slap on his storage pouch, he took out a three cun* long silver sword which had a blunt tip and no sharp edges on its sides. There was an inscription on its surface. It was a token in the form of a sword.
“Sword cultivation is always domineering. It is very common to kill the foe with just one slash. I hold no discontent towards Fellow Daoist Zhou. In fact, I am impressed by Fellow Daoist’s incredible swordsmanship. If Fellow Daoist is free, perhaps you can come visit the Sword Island… This is the Sword Token of the island. With this token, no one would hinder Fellow Daoist from entering the island!”
Guan Xiong a.k.a Sword Slave was trying to befriend Ning Fan! He even gave him a pass to enter the Sword Island as a keepsake!
Suddenly, the Sword Token shot out a miniature sword that carried a sword qi containing enough power to eliminate an ordinary Peak Nascent Soul Realm expert in an instant at Ning Fan. But when it came in front of him, he flicked his finger and immediately, the small sword quivered while its sword qi dispersed.
“Crushing a sword with just a flick of finger?! This kid has a really strong body refining realm. I suppose he is at the Jade Life Realm…” Guan Xiong praised inwardly. The sword qi was actually released with intention to probe Ning Fan’s ability.
“Thank you, Senior Guan. I will keep the Sword Token for the meantime. If there is a chance, I will definitely pay the Sword Island a visit…”
Ning Fan kept the item and cupped his fists while Guan Xiong gently nodded his head and returned to his room in the northern direction. He was a representative from the Sword Island. In other words, the Sword Island harbored no hostility towards Ning Fan!
“This Guan Xiong has an outstanding spirit like that of a hero. He is a wholehearted sword cultivator. He befriended me mainly out of sincerity and partially because of my Sword Finger Technique… As such, if I attain Spirit Severing Realm, there’s no harm for me to visit the Sword Island.”
Ning Fan’s gaze fell on Zhou Qing. He was the second person who withdrew his aura. On his glabella, there was a half-formed silver Lightning Star which he had yet to fully congeal.
This person looks like a cultivator with Immemorial Lightning Vein…
Just as their gazes met, Zhou Qing’s eyes turned solemn and activated the power of his Lightning Star. The half star flashed and his eyes began to fill with lightning as he stared at Ning Fan.
He had already heard that Ning Fan also possessed the Lightning Star. If it wasn’t because of that rumor, he would not have shown consideration for a cultivator from the External Endless Sea like Ning Fan, judging from his supercilious attitude.
“I am the Son of Heaven of the Zhou Clan. I am the person who possess the strongest potential in the Zhou Clan. With a nearly discarded blood vein, I managed to congeal the Immemorial Lightning Star… This person is not a member of the Zhou Clan. It’s impossible that he has congealed a Lightning Star…”
Zhou Qing’s eyes might look like lightning, but Ning Fan’s eyes were like the starry sky. As their gazes met once more, Ning Fan’s eyes flashed with blood lightning. Immediately, Zhou Qing felt as if a ray of blood lightning blasted within his mind, making the lightning in his eyes immediately diminish and submit!
A drastic change appeared on Zhou Qing’s face as he retreated two steps back. With his current cultivation level, he felt powerless in trying to expel the blood lightning from his Sea of Consciousness!
“Zhou Qi!”
“Yes!”
The silver-robed elderly Spirit Severing Realm expert behind him made a step forward and reached out his hand to support Zhou Qing from the back, stabilizing him. After that, his finger which flashed with lightning power pressed against Zhou Qing’s forehead, forcing the ray of blood lightning out from the latter’s Sea of Consciousness.
At this moment, both Zhou Qi and Zhou Qing exchanged glances of disbelief. Both their hearts were in disarray, as if there was a tempestuous storm raging within their minds.
Zhou Qing was not shocked at the fact that Ning Fan could kill Evil Light because he was capable of killing him as well.
