"Holy hell!"
Hai Ming Xuan Di couldn't help but curse, his mind completely stunned by the lightning.
Ling Fan glanced at the fleeing Xuan Dis and didn't waste any more time on Hai Ming Xuan Di, instead pursuing the other Xuan Dis.
Suddenly, a most absurd scene unfolded throughout the entire Sealing Demon Absolute Domain.
A half-step Xuan Di was in pursuit.
While a group of fourth-tier Xuan Dis, great figures, were fleeing.
Wherever Ling Fan chased,
The tribulation clouds followed.
In the end,
An area of a million li was engulfed in a sea of lightning.
And those Xuan Dis, more or less, were tainted with the aura of tribulation. Locked onto by black lightning, they were battered and bruised, desperately resisting the bombardment of the black lightning.
"Hmph, you guys keep playing! I'm leaving. When Lord Tian returns, it will be the day your heads roll."
Ling Fan laughed wildly. Although he had been severely battered by the colorless tribulation fire and black lightning, his vitality was incredibly strong, an unbelievable resilience!
He endured the seemingly endless tribulation lightning and fire, pulled out a top-grade Emperor Pill, and threw it into his mouth.
Instantly, powerful medicinal energy surged into his limbs and bones, rapidly repairing his body, which had been severely wounded by the tribulation fire and lightning.
"City Lord Liu, farewell!"
Ling Fan even had the leisure to greet Liu Zhong before turning and quickly disappearing into the vast demonic energy.
Watching the tribulation clouds move away with him.
Those Xuan Dis actually let out a long sigh of relief.
After being struck for another hour or two,
The tribulation clouds reluctantly dissipated.
"Damn it, that brat got away! Why aren't you chasing him?"
A fourth-tier Xuan Di from the Ruyi Sect gritted his teeth and shouted.
"Hmph, if you want to chase, go now. He's carrying such a massive tribulation cloud, making him an obvious target, very easy to track. But do you dare? Aren't you afraid of being struck again?"
A Xuan Di from Feather City sneered.
"Hiss!"
The Xuan Di from Ruyi Sect shivered.
Recalling the miserable state he was in after being struck, he felt a lingering fear.
"What secrets does he hold? What cultivation technique is he practicing? A mere half-step Xuan Di has triggered such terrifying tribulation, which even we fourth-tier Xuan Dis can barely withstand!"
He said with lingering fear.
"Kill him, refine his soul, and then you'll know everything!"
Hai Ming Xuan Di of Tide City said sinisterly.
"Let's follow from a distance. Once his tribulation disappears, we'll immediately move to capture and kill him. Without the troublesome tribulation, his strength is nothing to fear. As long as he doesn't become a fourth-tier Xuan Di, he will forever be an ant. This person possesses the key to the Sealing Demon Great Tomb, and he could enter it at any moment. We must guard against this."
A fourth-tier Xuan Di from Mount Tai Sect said.
"Fellow Daoist from Mount Tai Sect speaks wisely. We must indeed guard against him."
"Then let's not waste any more time. Let's follow."
...
Ahead.
Ling Fan swiftly moved through the demonic energy.
After being struck for seven days and seven nights,
The secondary tribulation of the Nirvana Tribulation Body finally began to dissipate.
At this moment, an incomparably powerful blood qi surged within him. It was clearly visible that black holes were being twisted into existence around him and then gradually disappearing.
After a while.
This phenomenon of his physical body distorting space slowly vanished.
This was a sign that Ling Fan had gained control of his new physical strength.
"The Nirvana Tribulation Body has finally passed the secondary tribulation and become the true Nirvana Emperor Body!"
"Now, relying solely on my physical strength, I can probably defeat a strong fourth-tier Xuan Di like Hai Ming Xuan Di."
"However, to deal with the combined efforts of more than ten Xuan Dis, physical strength alone is not enough. I must further expand the heavens and earth, increase my cultivation power, or replace the twelve puppets suppressed in the Yanluo Hall from half-step Xuan Di to twelve Xuan Dis!"
Thinking of the latter,
Ling Fan himself chuckled.
If he could suppress twelve Xuan Dis now, he wouldn't need to rely on the power of the Samsara Divine Cauldron.
"The demonic energy ahead is getting denser. It seems we are close to the range of the Sealing Demon Great Tomb!"
Ling Fan's thoughts stirred.
An ancient scripture radiating a powerful aura appeared before him.
On its cover, several ancient golden characters were clearly imprinted.
[Ancient Emperor Scripture].
Ling Fan reached out to flip the pages.
A powerful force rebounded, numbing Ling Fan's hand and pushing it back.
"This ancient scripture itself is comparable to a top-tier mid-grade Emperor weapon."
Ling Fan frowned.
"If you were in the hands of a fourth-tier Xuan Di, I truly wouldn't be able to do anything to you. But now you are ownerless. Open for me!"
Ling Fan snorted coldly. His Nirvana Emperor Body roared, and he directly grabbed the ancient scripture, forcefully dispelled the resisting force, and opened the first page.
The subsequent process was much smoother.
Page after page was turned.
Ling Fan quickly explored the secrets of this ancient scripture in broad strokes.
"This is actually a legacy left behind by a half-step Heavenly Emperor level expert. Interesting. The expert who left this ancient scripture should be the powerhouse from the Central Heavenly Realm who suppressed the Nine-Eyed Demon Emperor clan. If that's the case, then the suppressed Nine-Eyed Demon Emperor clan is likely not a sixth-tier Xuan Demon Emperor, but also a half-step Heavenly Demon Emperor. Otherwise, there would be no need for a half-step Heavenly Emperor to sacrifice his life to suppress it."
Ling Fan mused.
Suddenly, he pointed his finger.
The ancient scripture flipped rapidly, and ancient, profound golden characters radiating imperial aura floated out with the turning pages, finally forming an arrow pointing towards a certain direction within the demonic energy.
"The Sealing Demon Great Tomb is that way."
Ling Fan put away the ancient scripture.
His figure quickly disappeared from the spot.
A moment later.
Powerful figures descended with a roar.
"He's found the exact location of the Sealing Demon Great Tomb. Keep following him, don't lose him."
...
"Heh heh! I knew you people wouldn't give up. But my strength is not what it used to be. Can you still keep up!"
Ahead.
Ling Fan looked back.
The traces of Hai Ming Xuan Di, the Xuan Di of Feather City, and other powerhouses appeared in his Heavenly Demon Eye vision.
He sneered, and his flying speed suddenly more than doubled, almost exceeding the speed limit of fourth-tier Xuan Di experts, instantly widening the distance between him and the Xuan Dis behind him.
"Damn it! Why did his speed suddenly increase so much! He's only a half-step Xuan Di, can his body withstand it?"
"What kind of monster is he!"
The Xuan Dis behind him immediately jumped up and cursed, almost losing him.
Just as they were struggling to keep up.
Ahead.
Ling Fan's figure had already appeared before an incomparably massive hill.
To be precise.
This was not a hill.
But a tomb.
A tomb of unimaginable scale.
The ancient scripture appeared.
Countless golden characters floated out from the pages, forming a beam of light that shone upon the hill.
A rumbling sound was heard.
The hill actually cracked open, revealing an entrance.
Ling Fan put away the ancient scripture and swiftly shot into the entrance.
