Chapter 417 - Chapter 417: Immortal Emperor’S Lightning Bone

Chapter 417: Chapter 417: Immortal Emperor’s Lightning Bone

In three days, Ning fan had killed his way to the ninth floor in an unstoppable manner like a strong gale.

To him, there was no difficulty for him at all in killing the creatures in the tower. Moreover, he was in a place where he could kill without needing to worry about any future consequences.

With the lightning restraining effect of Ning Fan’s Tai Su Lightning Diagram and the formidable strength of his three spiritual puppets which could eliminate Void Refinement Realm beings, even lightning experts of the Void Glimpse Stage residing in this tower would only end up dead when they tried to oppose him.

Ning Fan could be considered as a natural restraint to lightning. He alone was already enough to eliminate Xu Longzi. With his three puppets by his side, whichever floor he went, it would mean catastrophe to that floor!

On the sixth floor, there was only one lightning lord who was at the Void Glimpse Stage. He was surrounded by Ning Fan and his three puppets. In just a brief moment, he was directly beaten to death.

On the seventh floor, there were two beings of the Void Glimpse Stage in total. However, they still were not Ning Fan’s opponents. All of them were killed without taking much time.

There were also two experts of the Void Glimpse Stage on the eighth floor and the both of them were eliminated without exception.

On the ninth floor, there were three experts on the Void Glimpse Stage in total. However, only two of them were put down while one of them managed to flee!

From the sixth floor to the ninth floor, Ning Fan had killed 7 beings of the Void Glimpse Stage in total.

After calculating it carefully, there were already 11 Void Refinement Realm experts who died in his hands.

500 traces of Divine Transformation Realm primordial lightning and 7 traces of primordial lightning of the Void Glimpse Stage fell into Ning Fan’s hands.

He also kept all the silver grade and golden grade lightning jades which were spawned by the undead spirits after he had killed them. Perhaps he could use these lightning jades when he trades with Lei Shiyi next time.

Such an amount of primordial lightning could only make his lightning armor which was at the first level of the golden grade complete two-third of the advancement progress towards the second level. He still needed to kill at least 6 experts of the Void Glimpse Stage or 600 Divine Transformation Realm lightning spirits in order to gather enough primordial lightning to upgrade his lightning armor to the second level of the golden grade.

However, even though his lightning armor had yet to break through to the second level, the defense of this lightning armor was already terrifyingly unusual. None of the Void Glimpse Stage experts he had met in the first nine floors could break the defense of his lightning armor.

Now, Ning Fan had already gathered 9 pieces of dark golden bamboo leaves in his hands. They were more than enough for him to accomplish his mission assigned by Hong Yi.

According to the information he had gathered so far, the tenth floor of the lightning tower was guarded by four Void Glimpse Stage beings.

Ning Fan was reluctant to risk his life confronting the four Void Glimpse Stage experts. Currently, he was already preparing to leave the tower.

He looked at the Thunder Sound Jade in his hands. That Lei Shiyi had yet to contact him and it made him inevitably feel a little disappointed.

Apparently, he would not be able to trade with Lei Shiyi once more before leaving this tower.

Originally, Ning Fan had prepared to use these useless lightning jades to exchange some excellent items from Lei Shiyi’s hands again.

However, he was not a Void Refinement Realm cultivator after all and he battled just depending on his lightning restraining ability and technique and his spiritual puppets.

If he is surrounded by too many Void Glimpse Stage experts, there was no way he could win against them.

He had already made up his mind. He then walked towards the teleportation formation leading to the lower floor.

At this moment, however, a group of black travelling light dashed past the vast sky. All of them revealed their killing qi without any concealment and they seemed to come after him!

Ning Fan’s eyes flashed with solemnity. That group of black travelling light consisted of at least more than one thousand Divine Transformation Realm beings and ten Void Refinement Realm experts!

All of the Void Refinement Realm beings on the ninth floor should already be dead. Undoubtedly, this group of experts came from the floors above the tenth floor!

“You bold and wild creature. How dare you murder King Ying Long’s brother?! You are digging your own grave!”

The Void Glimpse Stage cultivator leading the group was the lightning lord of the tenth floor of the tower. He released his forceful aura which turned into a sky-scraping colossal mountain that collapsed towards Ning Fan.

Ning Fan’s eyes turned cold. He immediately understood that these experts came after him under the command of the lightning lord of the twenty-fourth floor!

Ying Longzi, the lightning lord of the twenty-fourth floor…!

This man really had great power. He could actually send such a huge army just to deal with Ning Fan. He could actually make so many Void Glimpse Stage experts to yield to him and recognize him as their king sincerely!

While the mountain transformed from the aura force of an expert was falling down on Ning Fan, the other experts displayed their respective secret techniques. Each of the secret techniques went straight for Ning Fan’s primordial spirit. All of them were techniques that specialized in attacking one’s primordial spirit.

Facing the joint attacks from ten Void Refinement Realm beings, even his Tai Su Lightning Diagram could not absorb all their lightning attacks.

Seeing their group had outnumbered Ning Fan, all of the ten Void Refinement Realm experts firmly believed that he certainly could not escape death.

At this very moment, however, a black-colored cloak suddenly emerged and draped over Ning Fan’s white robes.

Then, his presence literally vanished right before the eyes of countless experts!

“Impossible! This man is clearly just at the Half-Step Void Refinement Realm. How could he have such a strong concealment technique that even we, the Void Glimpse Stage experts, are unable to detect his whereabouts!”

“Rumor has it that the reason why this man could wipe out the first nine floors was because he possessed three Void Glimpse Stage spiritual puppets while he only had insignificant strength himself. However, judging from what we have seen, it is definitely not that case! The techniques he has make him a person who is difficult to deal with. This concealment technique alone is already enough to make us unable to locate him…”

“Even if we have no ways to search for him, we also have to find him! Otherwise, how are we supposed to report to King Ying Long?!”

The faces of the group of Void Glimpse Stage experts darkened. They had tried a few types of magic techniques that could break one’s concealment but they still could not detect Ning Fan’s traces at all.

After all, the Heaven Deceiving Cloak was a spiritual equipment of the Profound Divinity Grade. It could even conceal the user from being detected by Void Fragmentation Realm spirit sense. How could this group of mere Void Refinement Realm experts could find out Ning Fan’s whereabouts?

All of them could not locate Ning Fan, but an idea suddenly hit them. They ordered a large group of people to tightly guard the teleportation formation leading to the eight floor and wait for Ning Fan to fall into the trap himself.

While the large group of cultivators were searching for Ning Fan, he had already gone one million li* (500m per li) away. The killing intent in his eyes became more fearsome gradually.

Even though this group of experts were unable to discover him, they had sealed off the way to the lower floor. As such, Ning Fan would have no way to escape the lightning tower unless he kills every last one of the ten Void Glimpse Stage experts.

“Ying Longzi, you will certainly regret not letting me leave.”

Ning Fan’s travelling light did not move towards the teleportation formation to the eight floor. Instead, he dashed towards the teleportation formation to the tenth floor.

He was not leaving anymore!

He decided to teach Ying Longzi some lessons!

With so many experts coming to the lower floor, the line of defense on the tenth floor must be extremely weak.

The killings began!

When countless experts were guarding the path to the eight floor, a gruesome and bloody calamity had befallen the tenth floor.

The lightning lord of the tenth floor had only brought one Void Glimpse Stage expert with him to the ninth floor. Other than the two of them, the remaining eight Void Glimpse Stage experts who joined this pursuit were the experts from the eleventh floor.

There were only two Void Glimpse Stage experts left on the tenth floor. They were in the middle of a discussion while guarding the dark golden bamboo leaf on behalf of their lightning lord.

The topic that they were discussing was actually related to Ning Fan.

“That wild being was actually bold enough to kill King Ying Long’s brother. It’s indeed an action to get himself killed. I’m afraid that he is already dead by now.”

“Hehe. Our lightning lord has gone into action himself. How will it be possible for the mission to fail? Unfortunately, we can’t join the pursuit mission this time. Otherwise, we definitely will gain huge credits in front of King Ying Long if we can kill that evil being with our hands. King Ying Long is the strongest Void Inquiry Stage expert in this Black Lightning Tower. It’s just a matter of time before he could attain the Void Pierce Stage. Once King Ying Long breaks through to the Void Pierce Stage, he will certainly be the strongest expert in the first thirty-six floors!”

“If we can befriend this level of expert by pursuing a Half-Step Void Refinement Realm cultivator, what harm is there to do so?!”

As the two of them were chatting and laughing, wails and shrieks of pain were suddenly heard from faraway. Slowly, the noise of fighting and killings became even more discernible.

The smile on their faces froze. In the next second, their expressions were filled with anger and shock and they roared in rage.

“Who is so bold to create troubles on my tenth floor!”

The tenth floor was the most formidable floor in the first ten floors of the tower. No undead spirits had ever dared to create trouble on this floor.

Both of them turned into two rays of travelling light and went out of the palace. Their cold eyes scanned the surroundings. They wanted to see what kind of wild creature that was audacious enough to court its death in this place.

When they saw an individual, the two of them found it difficult to conceal their astonishment.

Right before their eyes, the figure of a man who donned white robes and golden armors walked across the mountains of corpses and sea of blood indifferently. He would attack every creature in his sight ruthlessly and vigorously wherever he walked past. Countless undead spirits died tragically.

By his side, three spiritual puppets in black robes were also killing their enemies without mercy. When the four of them joined forces, there were completely no Nascent Soul Realm or Divine Transformation Realm beings that could stop their footsteps.

Ning Fan’s eyes shone with cold light and his baleful qi was so intense that it covered the skies. Amidst his baleful qi, there were eleven traces of terrifying qi which were left by dead Void Refinement Realm beings.

The minds of the two Void Refinement Realm experts which stayed to guard the bamboo leaf were invaded by Ning Fan’s baleful qi after they exchanged a glance with him. They were unable to retain their composure.

“This wild being has clearly been heavily surrounded by ten Void Refinement Realm experts and one thousand Divine Transformation Realm cultivators. How did he still manage to get away from them?!”

“Eleven individuals! It can’t be wrong. This man has taken the lives of eleven Void Refinement Realm beings in total! This man is extremely dangerous! We must retreat hurriedly and join the lightning lord!”

The two of them wanted to flee. However, it was already too late!

The divine star on Ning Fan’s glabella flickered. The lightning diagram spread out and trapped all of the undead spirits into the diagram. His intention to kill was certain.

“Kill!”

When he gave the command, his three puppets charged at the two Void Refinement Realm experts and surrounded them…

One hour later, this place was turned into a wasteland.

Ning Fan stood on the dead corpses of the two Void Refinement Realm experts and devoured two traces of blood-red lightning. His gaze locked onto the teleportation formation of the eleventh floor.

The eleventh floor might be dangerous but why should he be afraid?!

Moreover, Lei Shiyi seemed to still be on the eleventh floor.

I wonder if I can still buy some primordial spirit from that man now.

…

On the eleventh floor of the Black Lightning Tower.

The news about Ning Fan had disseminated throughout the lightning tower with a terrifying speed.

He had annihilated the first ten floors of the lightning tower with his own strength.

Although he was surrounded by ten Void Refinement Realm experts, he could still vanish right before everyone’s eyes.

Even some Void Inquiry Stage old monsters did not dare to underestimate him.

Myriad Treasure Pavilion was one of the forces on the eleventh floor of the lightning tower. The lord of this force was the famous Lei Shiyi!

This Lei Shiyi had an odd temperament. Even though he was strong, he seemed to be on bad terms with the lightning lord of the eleventh floor. He never befriended any Void Refinement Realm experts in the lightning tower.

The only hobby that this person had was doing business and earning lightning jades which he would devour to raise his cultivation base.

Even though he might haggle over a single lightning jade with others usually, he was definitely the wealthiest cultivator in the first twenty-four floors.

Now, in the Myriad Treasure Pavilion, Lei Shiyi was fiddling with a golden lightning abacus. With a wretched smile, he was calculating the number of primordial lightning he had newly obtained.

“Chu Nanfeng. This old man has contributed 1700 traces of Divine Transformation Realm primordial lightning and 4 traces of Void Refinement Realm primordial lightning to me… Mo Feiyun has contributed 3000 traces of Divine Transformation Realm primordial lightning and 7 traces of Void Refinement Realm primordial lightning… Old Man Yang has contributed 2500 traces of Divine Transformation Realm primordial lightning and 5 traces of Void Refinement Realm primordial lightning… There are still…”

Lei Shiyie revealed a look of excitement. In his trip back to the eleventh floor this time, he had acquired 10000 traces of Divine Transformation Realm primordial lightning and 35 traces of Void Refinement Realm primordial lightning in total.

If he sells all of these primordial lightning to Ning Fan, he would be able to earn quite a lot of money.

In the great hall, five Early Void Refinement Realm experts wore a confused expression. All of them were the feudal ranking elders of the Myriad Treasure Pavilion. They were none other than Chu Nanfeng, Mo Feiyun and others names muttered by Lei Shiyi.

They could not understand. They could not understand why the pavilion lord would spend so much effort to gather a large group of primordial lightning.

To undead spirits, these primordial lightning were trash.

They really could not comprehend why the pavilion lord would need them.

‘”Pavilion Lord, may I be so bold to ask what magical use do these items have exactly…?” Chu Nanfeng asked with a doubtful tone.

“Magical effect? How will I know what use this garbage has? I only know that they can be sold for money… It is not difficult to sell them for four to five hundred silver jades.”

“This trash can be sold at such an exorbitant price? What kind of people can afford to buy them with five hundred silver jades? Could it be that your customer is also a Void Inquiry Stage old monster?” Mo Feiyun asked confusedly.

“He’s not an expert of the Void Inquiry Stage. He is just a Half-Step Void Refinement Realm cultivator. However, this person is somewhat uncommon. Even I find him difficult to deal with.” Lei Shiyi sighed.

“Pavilion Lord must be joking. How could there be a Half-Step Void Refinement Realm cultivator that could resist a Void Inquiry Stage old monster in this world…?” Old Man Yang shook his head and disagreed. However, all of a sudden, he stopped speaking as if his tongue was tied. He recalled the crazy individual of the rumor who had wiped out the first ten floors of the lightning tower

That individual seemed to be a Half-Step Void Refinement Realm cultivator as well. He has annihilated ten floors on his own.

The notoriety of that individual made ordinary Void Glimpse Stage cultivators deeply fearful.

“No! This rumor must be fake. There is certainly no such a strong Half-Step Void Refinement Realm cultivator in this world! I will certainly not believe it unless I meet him with my own eyes!” Old Man Yang was reluctant to believe it.

“Rumor may not necessarily be fake!”

An arrogant and powerful voice was heard from outside the door suddenly, interrupting Old Man Yang’s words.

This voice carried the Mid Void Refinement Realm aura force. It without a doubt belonged to a Void Inquiry Stage old monster. His aura force was even much stronger than Lei Shiyi’s.

“Lightning Lord!” Old Man Yang, Chu Nanfeng, Mo Feiyun and the others instantly rose to their feet and their eyes were staring at their visitor with vigilance.

Even Lei Shiyi’s expression turned grim. With a displeased tone, he said.

“Zhu Feng, why did you come to my place?!”

“I heard that you are profusely gathering primordial lightning. It’s truly hilarious. What’s the point of gathering this kind of trash?” Zhu Feng teased.

“You haven’t answered my question!” Lei Shiyi’s eyes turned even colder.

“The reason I came here is just to take away your ‘Immortal Emperor’s Lightning Bones’!” Zhu Feng smiled evilly.

“Why should I give it to you?!” Lei Shiyi sounded like he had just heard something ridiculous.

“If you don’t hand over that item, Myriad Treasure Pavilion will be annihilated! This is King Ying Long’s intention. You should understand the consequences of defying King Ying Long! You have one day. Consider it wisely! One day later, I hope to hear a satisfying answer from you!”

Zhu Feng sneered and left ethereally. The atmosphere in the hall was solemn.

Lei Shiyi’s face darkened. It felt extremely uneasy to be threatened by others.

When the group of experts were in dead silence, a subordinate nervously rushed into the great hall. His head was beaded with sweat.

“Pavilion Lord… I-It’s bad…”

“What is bad?! What had happened?!” Lei Shiyi sounded very displeased.

“H-He has come…” The subordinate looked like he had just seen an extremely frightening thing.

“Who has come…?”

Before Lei Shiyi had asked about the details, a young man in white robes flew into the Myriad Treasure Pavilion at the next moment. Smiling gently, he said.

“Fellow Daoist Lei, how have you been since our last meeting? Have you gathered enough primordial lightning? This time, I have brought really a lot of money.”

Just as Ning Fan appeared, he faintly released a trace of his ferocious aura. All of the members within the hall were shocked.

“Thirteen traces of Void Refinement Realm baleful qi! This young man has such a fearsome baleful qi. Is he really just a Half-Step Void Refinement Realm cultivator?!”

“It’s him! Isn’t he being pursued in the floors below? How did he intrude the eleventh floor?!”
