Chapter 303.2 (1/2)
The Chaos in the Star Sea (5)
He could faintly hear the cries of innumerable beasts echoing to his palace from tens of thousands of li* (500m per li) away.
What surprised him even more was that within the main hall of the palace, a white-robed man carrying a feeble-looking, young girl in his arms appeared in a flash out of nowhere. None of them in the hall were able to notice how and when he got in!
The seven Early Divine Transformation Realm vice generals placed their hands on their swords which were tied to their waists and stood up vigilantly. Their eyes were all filled with astonishment.
They were unable to see clearly how Ning Fan got in. The only thing they were able to tell about him was that the latter was a cultivator of the Early Divine Transformation Realm. As for the young girl, however, she was a Late Divine Transformation Realm being!
“A Late Divine Transformation Realm expert!”
All of them were stunned. Most of them felt that way because of Xi Ran. However, anyone who had a keen eyesight would be able to notice at first glance that Xi Ran’s qi was chaotic after taking some damage while concocting pill. She could not possibly release any bit of her demon power. As such, she did not seem to be intimidating anymore.
However, they were aware that there must be something huge happening outside as Ning Fan was able to intrude the sea palace by himself.
As they spread their spirit sense to check the situation outside, their expressions instantly changed drastically. At the area within the outpost, the nests which used to house three hundred thousand sea beasts had all been razed to the ground. Outside the palace, there were eleven Divine Transformation Realm spiritual puppets and a Half-Step Void Refinement Realm black dragon refined corpse which had heavily besieged the vicinity, leaving no place for any of them to flee!
“Courting death! How dare you kill my men in my outpost?! You must die!”
Two Early Divine Transformation Realm vice generals were deeply enraged. Without hesitation, they turned into two traces of green smoke. One of them charged at Xi Ran while the other dashed towards Ning Fan.
From their perspectives, there were only a refined corpse and puppets outside the palace. Only the young man and woman before their eyes were living beings. Moreover, judging from their cultivation level, the young woman was obviously stronger than the young man. Perhaps, she was the master of all the puppets.
The group of spiritual puppets outside the palace indeed had formidable strength. However, if they were able to capture the master of the puppets, they would then gain advantage in their current situation and even reverse it.
Deep inside their hearts, although they hated themselves for drinking wine which caused them to disregard the trouble that was happening outside, they did not place Ning Fan in their eyes at all.
Since Xi Ran was suffering injuries at the moment and she was not used to combat, her little face appeared to be ghastly pale and her qi was completely in disarray.
As for Ning Fan, his qi seemed to be rather ferocious and tough. However, he was still just an Early Divine Transformation Realm cultivator after all. A being like him was not enough to make them be afraid.
“Shark’s Bite!”
“Whale’s Swallow!”
Two of them transformed into their demon avatars at the same time. Their bodies did not change but both of their heads turned into the head of a shark and the head of a whale respectively and opened their jaws wide at Ning Fan and Xi Ran.
The body of a Wild Beast was already terrifying at first glance. The bite force from their jaws was enough to kill a common Divine Transformation Realm cultivator with a weak body refining realm.
Those two attacks were as fast as the wind and lightning. Even so, Ning Fan’s shadow was even faster.
Without noticing when Ning Fan had moved, he was already standing in front of Xi Ran and threw out two punches!
The power of his punches landed directly at the heads of the two generals. The razor-sharp teeth which the two of them were always proud of were as fragile as glass when faced with Ning Fan’s punches. All of them could not withstand a single blow and were crushed to powder!
His massive strength began to vibrate throughout their bodies from their heads, shattering their demon bones. Eventually, their demon bodies were smashed into clouds of blood mist.
As the remaining force within their bodies dissipated, the guests who were below the Divine Transformation Realm within the hall were affected, causing a bloody scene where some of them perished while the others were injured. It had even torn the hollow space apart.
Killing two generals within an instant!
Gui Nu’s eyes widened in disbelief. He did not expect that Ning Fan who appeared to be less eye-catching would be a strong body refining expert who was capable of killing Divine Transformation Realm beings with just his punches!
Judging from the power of his punch, his body refining realm should at least be at a level not weaker than the Second Level of Jade Life Realm.
The more Gui Nu looked at Ning Fan, the more familiar he felt the latter’s appearance was. Unfortunately, the tipsy feeling within his head had yet to subside, making him unable to recall who the latter was. Hence, he made a step forward, emanating a vigorous aura, and ordered the other generals beside him with an imposing tone.
“He is an expert at the Second Level of Jade Life Body Refining Realm. All of you must not simply engage him. Let this old man turn him to dust!”
What he meant by ‘must not simply engage’ was actually implying them to sneak attack whenever there’s a chance!
The remaining five Early Divine Transformation Realm experts got his meaning. They stood aside and their gazes were all focused on Ning Fan.
Ning Fan showed a look of contempt and also moved a step forward, entirely crushing Gui Nu’s aura.
“Just now you mentioned that you could finish me off with just a move?”
*Puke*
At just their first encounter, Gui Nu’s aura was destroyed, causing him to retreat ten steps backwards. As he regained his balance, he coughed out a mouthful of blood which dyed his white beard red. His expression was completely filled with shock.
“This man has very bizarre means. Crushing my aura with just a step… Let’s go together and finish him off!”
“Let’s go!”
“Kill!”
In the Star Sea, ferocious beasts were everywhere. Even if they were at the end of their wits, they would still fight until their last breaths. Besides, Gui Nu thought that since he had six of them on his side, they might not necessarily lose to the intruders.
Their fierce aura might seem to be directed against Ning Fan, but in the next instant, three out of six of them transformed into streams of clouds and travelled towards Xi Ran.
“Are the demons of the Star Sea especially fond of bullying women?!”
Ning Fan’s eyes shone with cold light. Previously, it was because of his carelessness that Qu Feng had the opportunity to nearly harm Xi Ran.
This time, he would never repeat his mistake again!
Moving one step backwards, his arm held Xi Ran’s slim waist more tightly. At the same moment, three shadows of the vice generals appeared one after another behind Xi Ran.
Just as they emerged, their expressions looked amazed. They did not expect their plan of performing sneak attacks on Xi Ran would be seen through by Ning Fan so quickly.
“Close your eyes…”
Ning Fan gently told her. Immediately, Xi Ran who had a face that was ghastly pale obediently shut her eyes.
At the next moment, Ning Fan thrust his palms forward, moving directly at the heads of the three generals. The power of his palms caused the sea current of the Star Sea to move in reverse. Within the vicinity of one thousand li*, the sea water was pushed away, forming a one hundred zhang* large (3.13m per zhang) waterless area!
