Chapter 370.1 (1/2)

He Is the King of Flames

The Fu Li Eyes gave him extraordinarily keen vision. Thus, Ning Fan had quickly seen through the profoundness of Revered Flame’s flying sword without needing Bei Xiaoman’s warning.

That fiery-red flying sword was a Peak Divine Transformation Realm Spiritual Treasure. It was augmented with two great divine abilities: teleportation and shadow cutting.

Revered Flame was not a sword cultivator, but a fire cultivator instead. The flying sword he had was just for the sole purpose of performing sneak attacks.

After flickering several times, it was now a few inches away from Ning Fan’s shadow on the ground.

Once it cuts through Ning Fan’s shadow, his true body would also be cut. In a way, Shadow Cut was nearly the same as the ability of killing one’s nascent soul by striking their treasures.

Bei Xiaoman was really nervous. The two blood-red stars between her glabella slowly emerged. She raised her delicate hand and a trace of blood red light revolved around her finger. She was ready to help Ning Fan at any time.

However, before Bei Xiaoman could even act, that fiery-red flying sword suddenly stopped and trembled, as if it was being blocked by something. Taking a closer look, one would be able to see that it was being struck by a ray of starlight.

That ray of starlight was the Separation Slayer Sword which Ning Fan summoned with a snap of his finger. After Ning Fan comprehended his sword intent, the might of his sword was definitely beyond compare.

*Clang*

The sound of breaking metal was heard. The fiery-red flying sword was actually crushed by the sword shadow glowing in starlight after a single collision.

Afterwards, that ray of starlight returned to Ning Fan and hovered around his body. His eyes were vivid black as he indifferently glanced at Revered Flame.

“That’s not the correct way to wield a flying sword… Appear!”

As soon as Ning Fan performed a series of hand seals, the sword shadow that was emanating starlight around his body instantly split into ten thousand sword shadows. They whistled across the sky and rained down on Revered Flame.

Ning Fan rarely killed his enemies using techniques involving flying swords. However, it did not mean that he was not proficient in them.

Especially after he comprehended the Immortal Entrapping Sword Intent with the help of a broken piece of the sword, he was able to display the power of the flying sword to its full potential.

“What a domineering sword intent!”

Even the two hidden Void Refinement Realm experts of the Rain Palace could not help but secretly praise him.

Ning Fan’s sword intent emanated the haughtiness and dominance of entrapping an immortal being. It was the sword intent of an overlord. Both the Void Refinement Realm experts felt it difficult to breathe by just watching the battle from a distance.

The two of them could not help but begin to guess Ning Fan’s background.

Zhou Ming, a powerful expert from the Endless Sea who has a Void Refinement Realm expert as a guardian... Could it be that he’s a member of the Zhou Family of the Internal Endless Sea?

However, in regards to the information about the Zhou Family of the Internal Endless Sea, the Rain Palace has always been keeping a close grasp of it. There was absolutely no such genius like Ning Fan!

“What’s the origin of this young man…?” The two Void Refinement Realm experts began to speculate Ning Fan’s identity once more.

The domineering force from Ning Fan’s sword intent swept across the streets. All the cultivators spectating the battle drew back again to distance themselves from the battlefield.

Even Revered Flame felt a tingling sensation on his scalp when faced with ten thousand sword shadows.

He was an expert strong enough to burn an ordinary Half-Step Void Refinement Realm expert to death. He had also seen countless sword cultivators who could behead someone with flying swords.

Among the Divine Transformation Realm sword cultivators that he had met before, Ning Fan’s flying sword techniques would definitely rank in the top three. Furthermore, Revered Flame also knew that flying sword techniques were not Ning Fan’s forte at all.

“I seem to have underestimated this man…”

For the first time, Revered Flame frowned and regarded Ning Fan as a worthy opponent. He patted his storage pouch and produced a handful of red sand. He then sprinkled it into the sky. The sand glittered in blood red as it drifted in the sky.

When the sky was covered by the red sand, countless sword shadows that entered the hazy area crumbled and disintegrated.

The true body of the Separation Slayer Sword began to tremble violently after it was affected by the red sand. However, it managed to stay in one piece without breaking.

“An Immemorial Divine Weapon…?”

Revered Flame knitted his brows even tighter. He originally planned to break Ning Fan’s flying sword with that handful of red sand as revenge for his broken sword, but it ended up fruitless.

After their first clash, Ning Fan was unscathed but Revered Flame’s flying sword was broken. Thus, Revered Flame was at a disadvantage.

“It’s the Bloor Star Sand! It’s Revered Flame’s natal magical treasure. The blood sand was refined using the Immemorial Star Iron and specializes in destroying all kinds of magical treasures!”

“An Immemorial Divine Weapon! The flying sword being held by Venerated Ming is also an Immemorial Divine Weapon! According to hearsay, not only can an Immemorial Divine Weapon level-up, but it’s also firm and indestructible. If Venerated Ming’s flying sword is just an ordinary sword, it might have been destroyed by this Blood Star Sand… It’s indeed a divine weapon!”

The clamors of comments of the cultivators echoed into Ning Fan’s ears and his expression turned serious after hearing them.

“I see.”
