Chapter 388.1 (1/2)

Yu Chong’er

Dawn broke.

Ning Fan had spent the rest of the night on his bed regulating his breathing. Currently, his mind, spirit and qi were at their peak. He pushed the door and exited his room. Amidst the wind and snow, there was already a dumb servant waiting for him. It seemed like he wanted to bring him somewhere.

Ning Fan spread his spirit sense and discovered with surprise that he was the only one left in the guest house. There was no sign of Yun Tianjue.

He then thought to himself.

Perhaps Yun Tianjue went to the Blood Dragon Pool in advance.

Ning Fan did not ask the dumb servant anything and followed him outside the guest house. Right outside the entrance, there was already a Void Refinement Realm striding bull lying prostrate on the ground.

The body of the beast was as large as five thousand zhang* with a pavilion built on its back. It seemed to be a beast for cultivators to ride.

There were more than ten figures of young people sitting on the back of the striding bull. Because of the Mortal Void Realm Sense Blocking Formation which separated Ning Fan from them, it was difficult for him to see their true appearances.

On the other hand, Ning Fan also did not attempt to activate his demon eye to see through the formation with effort. Instead, he leapt from the ground and got up on the back of the beast.

He would probably be heading to the Blood Dragon Pool by riding this beast today.

The lord of the Dragon Determining Valley really spent a large fortune in making a Void Refinement Realm striding bull to act as a mount.

What really astonished Ning Fan was that the seal that was planted within this Void Refinement Realms striding bull was not an ordinary mental seal, but a demon seal!

Only those who were proficient in demon cultivation methods could plant a demon seal… This discovery made Ning Fan think.

Could the master of this Dragon Determining Valley be an expert of the demon path?

Even though it was extremely difficult for humans to practice the demon path, it was not impossible. Like Ning Fan and the members of the Demon Sealing Sect, there were actually quite many human cultivators practicing the demon path.

The moment Ning Fan boarded the back of the beast, the Void Refinement Realm striding bull instinctively revealed a terrified look.

A dignified Void Refinement Realm striding bull actually felt frightened and nervous when it had close contact with Ning Fan… Unquestionably, it was the formidable power coming from his bloodline that could intimidate other beasts!

The reason why this striding bull was able to sense it was because its spiritual intelligence was rather excellent. Unless Ning Fan revealed his demon aura force on purpose, ordinary blood beasts would not definitely be able to tell Ning Fan’s identity as a demon ancestor of the Fu Li Race!

*Moo*

It was unusual for this Void Refinement Realm striding bull which was extremely irascible and arrogant to guests to actually make a gentle and submissive cry after Ning Fan had mounted its back.

All of a sudden, the faces of all the male and female cultivators in the pavilion changed.

Anyone with a discerning eye would be able to tell that this striding bull was trying to please Ning Fan. But how could that be possible? A Void Refinement Realm ferocious beast was ingratiating itself to a Divine Transformation Realm cultivator?

“Hello. Are you Revered Ming?”

A voice was heard from the group of cultivators on the pavilion. It was hard to tell whether the person was angry or joyful when they uttered those words. Then, the Sense Blocking Formation was disabled.

The person who spoke was a middle-aged Confucian scholar. He had a Mid Divine Transformation Realm cultivation base. As soon as he saw Ning Fan approach, he immediately rose from his seat and cupped his fists to welcome him.

“You are?” Ning Fan walked into the pavilion and asked with a doubtful tone.

“Hehe. I am Yu Bai, a revered elder of the Serene Heaven Palace. They are also the revered elders of my Serene Heaven Palace…” The middle-aged scholar introduced with a friendly smile.

“So you are Fellow Daoist Yu.”

Ning Fan cupped his fists in return and nodded his head at the Divine Transformation Realm revered elders there to show respect.

There were a total of thirteen Divine Transformation Realm cultivators there. Five were at the early stage, three were at the middle stage, two were at the late stage, another two were at the peak stage while the last one was a Half-Step Void Refinement Realm.

The Serene Heaven Palace was a force under Chu Chang’an’s command. Thus, these revered elders were his subordinates.

Apparently, this group of revered elders were going to enter the Blood Dragon Pool with Ning Fan to train. Perhaps it would really cost Chu Chang’an a great deal in order to activate the Blood Dragon Pool even once. He not only invited the revered elders of the Scarlet Heaven Palace to enter, but also the revered elders from his own force.
