Chapter 443: Chapter 443: I Will Give You a Peaceful Life
Dazzling light rays filled the air of the first level of the Buddha Tower. These light rays were healing the injuries of the female corpse while attacking Ning Fan at the same time, trying to impede him.
After putting his guard up, it was impossible for Ning Fan to be hurt by the light rays on the first level.
With his strength, he could shatter the light rays just by raising his hand. However, he was not willing to do so. If he gets rid of the light rays, what else would the female corpse depend on to treat her injuries?
Ning Fan secretly made a few hand seals and a layer of jade green s.h.i.+eld immediately surrounded his body. With the defense of the Jade Life Body Refinement Realm s.h.i.+eld, the light rays on the first level could not harm him anymore.
As he stepped on the stairs which were made of seven types of treasures and colored gla.s.s, the sound of mantras and chants continuously resounded in his ears, making his Sea of Consciousness feel some pain.
However, the sound of the mantras and chants helped the female corpse’s Sea of Consciousness gradually recover and put her to sleep. Corpse devils originally did not need to sleep at all. The reason why she fell asleep was to complete the recovery of her Sea of Consciousness in her dream.
Ning Fan’s eyes flashed with determination. Enduring the pain, he carried the slumbering female corpse and advanced to the second level of the Buddha Tower.
Just as he arrived at the second level, the sound of mantras and chants which were several stronger than the one on the first floor suddenly blasted Ning Fan’s ears.
In front of Ning Fan stood a group of evil spirits clad in golden armor. There were at least hundreds of them with each of them of at least the Harmonious Spirit Realm. All of them materialized from the golden light. It seemed as if they did not want him to set foot on the second level.
“This lowly devil creature sure is stubborn to adhere to his foolish ways without awakening. I shall restrain you with my seven traces.”
This voice was undeniably the same with the one who spoke on the first level. His tone of voice was rigid and unusual. There was no sign of emotion in it. Apparently, the person who spoke was not a living person but a non-living thing instead.
When the owner of the voice let out a vigorous bellow, it immediately turned into thousands of golden Buddha beads which plummeted straight down Ning Fan’s head. Each of the beads could instantly kill a Harmonious Spirit Realm cultivator!
Aside from that, the hundreds of Harmonious Spirit Realm evil spirits let out weird roars and rushed towards Ning Fan all at once.
Ning Fan’s eyes flashed with a cold light. He spread his dark-colored sword sense and swept the surroundings, crus.h.i.+ng each and every one of the golden Buddha beads. The golden beads were turned into fine golden rays.
As for the incoming group which merely consist of a few hundred Harmonious Spirit Realm cultivators, how could they withstand Ning Fan’s sword sense? Almost instantly, they were shredded to pieces and were eliminated.
When all of the golden beads were dealt with and all of the evil spirits were eliminated, that emotionless voice slowly vanished. No more attacks from the floor followed afterwards.
Ning Fan stayed at where he was and started to immerse himself in his thoughts. If he was not wrong, the owner of that cold voice should be the tower spirit which was guarding this Buddha Tower.
The original purpose for the tower spirit’s existence was to prevent cultivators who did not have enough cultivation base from ascending to higher floors. However, since Ning Fan was a true devil, the tower spirit attacked him instinctively.
“I didn’t expect a tower spirit actually exists inside this Buddha Tower. Moreover, this tower spirit actually attacked me because I possess devil blood. I just want to bring Weiliang into the tower to treat her wounds. However, this unexpected situation will really cause a lot of trouble to me.”
“If my senses aren’t wrong, this tower spirit should be staying on the seventh floor of the tower. In addition to that, this tower spirit is at the Peak Void Refinement Realm. It’s a genuine Absolute Void Stage old monster. It isn’t something that I can withstand. But it seems like this tower spirit cannot leave the seventh floor as it wishes for some reason. It can only use its voice to command the evil spirits to attack me. It can’t come to me and personally kill me.”
“The seventh floor… Beyond the seventh floor of the Lost World Tower, there is a path which leads to the secret eighth floor. There are seven pieces of time crystals hidden there. They are the source behind the power which speeds up time inside the tower. The seventh floor of this Buddha Tower is being guarded by a tower spirit. Is there also an eighth floor beyond the seventh floor? The Buddha Tower was built for healing purposes. I suppose the eighth floor does exist and should be where the supreme treasures for healing wounds are being kept. Those treasures are the ones behind that endless supply of healing power for the seven floors of the tower!”
By rationalizing the fact that the tower spirit is restricted from leaving the seventh floor, Ning Fan figured out a lot of things.
Originally, he wanted to bring the female corpse to the higher floors and stay alongside her in the tower as her injuries slowly healed. In this manner, he was not sure how many months and years it would take to fully cure her.
Now, he figured out that the Buddha Tower contained supreme treasures for healing wounds. In order to let the female corpse’s Sea of Consciousness recover faster, he decided to obtain those treasures.
The healing power those treasures have was even capable of turning this seven-floored Buddha Tower into a holy land for healing injuries. If Ning Fan can get his hands on those treasures, they would absolutely be beneficial to the female corpse in her recovery!
Even though Ning Fan clearly knew that the Absolute Void Stage tower spirit was guarding the seventh floor, Ning Fan would still not change his mind.
“Weiliang, have a good rest. I will bring some treasures to you for you to treat your wounds…”
Ning Fan gently stroked the face of the female corpse who was resting in his embrace. As he touched her ice-cold skin, it made him pity her even more.
The previous Mu Weiliang was rejected by her own divine race and was even viewed as a traitor by all of the immortals and celestial beings because of a b.u.t.terfly. Eventually, she died and became a corpse devil.
In this life, Ning Fan wanted to repay all of the love he owed to her in his previous life!
He must help her recover her Sea of Consciousness so that she could smile again!
After keeping the female corpse into his Cauldron Ring, a solemn and vigorous killing qi rose around Ning Fan’s body. That was a representation of his determination which no one could stop.
“So what if I have to face the Absolute Void Stage tower spirit. It is just a non-living thing after all. Why should I be afraid of it?!”
He took a step and turned into a trace of smoke. He went to the third floor, fourth floor and the fifth floor.
When he met Gold Core Realm evil spirits, he killed them!
When he met Nascent Soul Realm evil spirits, he killed them!
When he met Divine Transformation Realm evil spirits, he killed them!
The floor made out of colored-gla.s.s was covered with blood, flesh and severed body parts. Ning Fan walked on top of the fresh blood and crushed all of the Buddha light. Then, he stood for quite some time on the empty fifth floor.
He did not go into the sixth floor immediately because he was aware that once he went into the sixth floor of the tower, he would probably be attacked by Void Refinement Realm evil spirits.
It had already been a month since he left the Black Lightning Tower. The devil qi on his primordial spirit had already been expelled completely. Now, he could transform into his ancient devil form again.
This time, the danger of killing his way into the sixth floor and the seventh floor was extremely great. Ning Fan had to go all-out.
Amidst the ma.s.s of devil qi his body was exuding, Ning Fan turned into a devil lord in black robes. A devil horn grew on his head, devil wings stretched out from his back and a devil eye opened on his glabella.
Then, Ning Fan summoned his lightning armor and lightning rays enveloped his body instantly. At the next second, the blinding lightning rays faded and Ning Fan was now clad in a set of golden armor. His defense then increased to a terrifying level.
Twinkling starlight shone upon Ning Fan. He summoned his natal black stars and ninety-nine black stars then appeared above his head.
Multiple layers of golden shadows emerged and Ning Fan created two golden illusory figures. All of a sudden, he had two additional help which were at the Golden Body Realm.
“Soul Extraction!”
After he did all of his preparations, he still felt it wasn’t enough. He extended his five fingers and clawed at the earth, extracting the soul of the great earth entirely.
Outside the Buddha Tower, parts of the ground began to crumble. Countless undercurrents and vortexes also occurred in the ocean.
All the members of the Six-Winged Clan including Xuan Yi were startled. They had no idea about what had happened inside the Buddha Tower since someone actually used the Soul Extraction Technique.
Yue Lingkong’s eyes were filled with worry. She wanted to go into the tower to find out what was happening but she then came to a halt.
“I can’t do this. I must trust Little Cuc.u.mber. The means and techniques he has to protect himself are as many as the hairs on an ox. Even if there are some unforeseen circ.u.mstances in the tower, he’ll be fine. As for me, I must stay here and stand guard for him. If someone destroys the formation light when I am not around, the Buddha Tower will not be able to function anymore.”
On the fifth floor of the tower, Ning Fan did not rest at all after making all of his preparations. With a vigorous and unstoppable aura, he advanced towards the sixth floor.
Just as he set foot on the sixth floor, 108 evil spirits clad in golden armor showed themselves one after another. All of their cultivation bases were beyond the Void Refinement Realm. Their killing intent locked onto Ning Fan.
Among the 108 Void Refinement Realm evil spirits, 72 of them were at the Void Glimpse Stage while 36 of them were at the Void Inquiry Stage!
This was certainly an extremely dangerous situation even for Void Pierce Stage or Absolute Void Stage experts when they are surrounded by so many evil spirits.
Ning Fan did not hesitate at all. At the moment he went into the sixth floor, he quickly activated his Heaven Deceiving Cloak and slipped away. Without stopping, he went straight to the seventh floor.
The Heaven Deceiving Cloak was something that could prevent the user from being detected by the spirit sense of Void Fragmentation Realm experts. Seeing Ning Fan suddenly vanish in front of their eyes, the 108 evil spirits wore blank and confused expressions on their faces.
The tower spirit which was standing guard on the seventh floor witnessed the scene where Ning Fan suddenly disappeared mysteriously. It was also stunned at first but then it uttered the word “卐[1]”.
The voice was from the seventh floor. There was just a single floor above the sixth floor. Then, a force which was almost comparable to a Void Fragmentation Realm attack exploded in the sixth floor and attacked everything within indiscriminately.
Ning Fan’s expression changed. He had never expected that the tower spirit would actually display such a large-scale attack in order to force him to reveal himself.
In every direction, thousands of illusory shadows of gemstones suddenly appeared. There were silver stones, golden stones, colored gla.s.s, crystals, sh.e.l.ls, corals and amber.
The destructive force of each of the beautiful gemstones was like a falling meteorite which was equivalent to a full-powered attack of a Void Glimpse Stage cultivator.
Each and every one of the evil spirits was grievously wounded when they were struck by the gemstones. Ning Fan was also hit by tens of these gemstones.
An overwhelming pain spread across his whole body. Cracks actually began to form on his lightning armor which was at the third level of the golden grade after receiving the attacks of the tower spirit. It was as if the gemstones had the power to pierce through armor.
Tens of ma.s.sive and heavy blows struck his chest and they even left the imprint of the word “卐”, undoing his invisibility.
Ning Fan’s concealment disappeared and his presence was revealed which filled his eyes with surprise.
The tower spirit’s magic attack could summon thousands of gemstones where the destructive power of just several tens of gemstones of them could rival that of Ning Fan’s strongest magic technique.
Aside from that, this was a casual attack from the tower spirit displayed from afar. If Ning Fan fights the tower spirit face-to-face, he probably would not have any chances of winning at all without using the stored attack of his Stele of Sun and Moon.
An Absolute Void Stage expert was indeed strong. However, since it was just on its own, it might not necessarily be impossible to trick it to its death!
The “卐” buddha seal was a little troublesome. Even with his power of samsara, Ning Fan would need some time to erase it completely and go invisible again.
After Ning Fan’s concealment was cancelled, each of the injured evil spirits turned towards him and surrounded him. They blocked the path to the seventh floor.
As for that tower spirit, it seemed to have used a lot of its magic power to undo Ning Fan’s invisibility as it no longer sent out another attack.
Since Ning Fan was unable to conceal himself again, he had no other option but to kill his way out.
Ning Fan in his devil form could even fight against King Ying Long in a physical battle. Without doubt, his strength in this form was extremely great. When he displays those strong and destructive body techniques in his current form, even common Void Inquiry Stage old monsters could not withstand them at all, let alone these 108 Void Refinement Realm evil spirits. Most of them had also been inflicted with serious injuries by the tower spirit’s magic technique from earlier.
“Void Technique, Double Dragon!”
“Void Technique, Moon-Tearing Dragon!”
He hurled several punches to his enemies. Multiple rays of moonlight and dragon claws rushed at the Void Refinement Realm evil spirits, neutralizing each and every one of the attacks from them.
Moreover, each of his body techniques could take the life of a severely injured Void Glimpse Stage expert. These Void Refinement Realm evil spirits, however, seemed to have no fear of death as all of them were willing to die just to inflict some injuries on Ning Fan by detonating themselves.
It was a death match. All of them fought without using fancy techniques. All of them only rushed towards him desperately and fearlessly with a single intention in mind – to eliminate him.
In this kind of desperate fight where he was completely outnumbered, his two golden figures got killed very quickly.
Even though the defense of his lightning armor was heaven-defying, could not withstand the attacks of such a huge number of enemies. After he killed a dozen Void Glimpse Stage and two Void Inquiry Stage evil spirits, his lightning armor was now on the verge of shattering.
The cracks that had formed on his armor after receiving the attack from the tower spirit spread and split into more cracks. Eventually, his armor broke. Luckily, this lightning armor was just a magic technique and not a magic treasure. When this battle is over, he could condense his primordial lightning into the lightning armor again. Hence, it would not be destroyed completely.
However, the situation became too disadvantageous to him after losing the lightning armor.
Without the defense of his lightning armor, each of the powerful attacks of the evil spirits managed to leave serious injuries on his body.
In just a few breaths, Ning Fan’s body was already filled with more than one hundred wounds and his black robes were soaked with blood.
Even his natal black stars could not heal his injuries fast enough, which were from the attacks of more than ninety Void Refinement Realm beings. It was still a difficult fight even though their combat power had greatly suffered due to the injuries they had.
*Roar*
Ning Fan let out a devil roar. He was well aware that he could no longer remain entangled with these ghostly creatures and must now head to the seventh floor at once.
From his senses, he found that there was only a single vigorous and ferocious qi on the seventh floor.
I just need to get to the seventh floor and eliminate the tower spirit there with the stored attack of my Stele of Sun and Moon and the treasures will all be mine!
Ning Fan stared at the entrance to the seventh floor which was still far away from him with eyes filled with determination. Then, he took out the seven yellow jade tokens and raised them to the sky.
“Yellow Dragon Seven Tokens! Fall!”
All of the seven jade tokens were Mid-Grade Mortal Void Realm treasures. With Ning Fan’s current magic power, he was still too weak to properly use these treasures.
He had infused his blood essence into those jade tokens. Even though he already inflicted injuries on himself in exchange for the power to use these treasures, he was only able to activate half of the destructive power of the jade tokens.
Even so, the combined destructive power of the seven jade tokens was already very close to that of a Void Pierce Stage attack.
Seven layers of yellow skies fell upon the evil spirits. Each and every one of these creatures cried in agony and misery. Some of them were wounded by the attacks while some of them were crushed right away and died.
Ning Fan did not have the mood to check on the conditions of the evil spirits. He kept the jade tokens and dashed towards the entrance of the seventh floor in a flash. In the end, he still managed to kill his way out.
“Impossible!”
The moment Ning Fan set foot on the seventh floor, a cold and stiff voice resounded within the floor. It revealed a look of disbelief for the very first time.
He did not expect at all that Ning Fan who was just a Half-Step Void Refinement Realm cultivator could actually get to the seventh floor!
Ning Fan had expected a fight to occur the very moment he stepped into the seventh floor but what greeted him was just an empty Buddhist hall with an ancient monument made of pure gold at the center. It was in bad condition.
Ning Fan understood that this monument was the tower spirit guarding the seven floors of the tower.
This monument was already in such a bad condition. Hence, it was no surprise that there was a long interval between its attacks.
Ning Fan seemed to have overestimated this tower spirit. Evidently, he did not need to use his Void Fragmentation Realm stored attack at all to deal with an Absolute Void Stage tower spirit which was already worn out similar to an arrow at the end of its flight.
When that ancient monument saw Ning Fan on the seventh floor, its eyes shot out multiple rays of Buddha light which turned into countless glittering gemstones. Each of them glowed with Buddha light and attacked him.
“The ancient devil must be eliminated!”
This attack came too fast. It was a Void Pierce Stage attack. It had the power to kill Ning Fan who had nowhere to hide.
Ning Fan’s eyes s.h.i.+ned with a hint of joy. They seemed to indicate that his plan had worked. All of a sudden, he vanished from his original spot and went into his Profound Yin World.
All of the gemstones lost their target and fell to the ground aimlessly. As all of them had bombarded the seventh floor of the Buddha Tower, it nearly destroyed it entirely.
“He disappeared?! Where did he hide?! Even if he has gone into a magic treasure of an immortal’s abode, the s.p.a.ce within that treasure would also be blown up by the gemstones to pieces. Could it be that this devil has hidden himself inside a small chiliocosm?” The ancient monument could not figure out where Ning Fan had gone to.
When the dust and smoke dispersed, Ning Fan then slowly came out from his Profound Yin World. He looked at the ancient monument which could not deliver the next attack at the moment, without giving it an explanation.
He would not give an explanation to something that was about to be eradicated.
It could not be any better that he could finally eliminate the tower spirit by chance.
Ning Fan pressed his glabella and his Separation Slayer Sword appeared. It split into multiple sword shadows and cut the dilapidated ancient monument to pieces.
The moment the ancient monument was destroyed, the spirituality of the entire Buddha Tower suddenly plummeted. All of the evil spirits that had been summoned by the tower spirit struggled and vanished into golden light.
After the ancient monument was destroyed, a glowing portal immediately appeared on the wall behind it. It must be the portal leading to the eighth floor. It must be where the supreme treasures which had been supplying the healing power of this tower are.
Ning Fan did not hesitate and directly went through the portal.
This Buddha Tower had been given to the Six-Winged Clan by the Kunlun World Jade Pool. It no longer belonged to them.
That’s why the tower spirit of this tower was so dilapidated and weak.
That’s why Ning Fan was bold enough to eliminate the tower spirit and steal the treasures after figuring out that there must be some hidden in this tower without worrying that he would provoke the Kunlun Jade Pool.
The eighth floor of this tower was different from the one on the Lost World Tower. Seven jade platforms had been built on this floor and each of them had a treasure glowing brilliantly with Buddha light. All of them had ma.s.sive healing power. Aside from that, there were no formations or spiritual puppets here to guard the floor.
Since this was a tower to be given to someone as a gift, the Jade Pool naturally would not spend a lot of effort in protecting the treasures in it. Besides, since this tower was already given to the Six-Winged Clan, it must be the ancestor of the clan who accepted this gift that was responsible for setting up the defenses of this floor.
Ning Fan returned to his original form. His white robes were soaked with blood and the injuries he suffered were rather serious. Even so, his face wore a satisfied smile.
From the seven treasures, he sensed frightening healing power. They were seven relics that had been left by a true Buddha after pa.s.sing away. The seven relics were in the form of gold, silver, colored gla.s.s (Chinese: 琉璃 [liu li]), crystal, sh.e.l.l, coral and amber.
It was clear to Ning Fan that if he consumes one of the seven relics, even if his condition was two times worse than his current condition, his injuries would still be completely healed in an instant.
However, he was unwilling to consume the seven relics as the seven of them were all for the female corpse.
“Keep!”
With a flick of his sleeve, Ning Fan kept the seven relics. At the next moment, the whole Buddha Tower began to tremble. Its spirituality completely disappeared. All of the seven floors of the tower no longer had any healing effect.
“W-Why would this happen?!”
The Great Elder who had been waiting outside the tower nearly had the impulse to cough up blood.
He had lent the Buddha Tower to Ning Fan for him to use but he had never expected that the latter would actually break it, rendering it unable to provide treatment to others.
In a way, Xuan Yi felt really heartbroken that the tower was destroyed. On the other hand, however, he was greatly astonished. The Buddha Tower was the greatest treasure of the Six-Winged Clan. It was not something that someone could just destroy as they wish.
The Buddha Tower was guarded by an Absolute Void Stage tower spirit. If someone wants to destroy this tower, they would have to get rid of the tower spirit first. Other than Void Fragmentation Realm old monsters, who else could do such a thing?
Furthermore, Xuan Yi did not understand Ning Fan’s motive in destroying the Buddha Tower at all.
Doesn’t he want to use the tower to treat the female corpse? What could he get by destroying the tower?
“I can’t understand… Could it be that Venerated Ming wasn’t the one who destroyed this tower? It’s too unreasonable.”
Xuan Yi was not really aware about what exactly happened inside the tower and if it was truly Ning Fan who destroyed the tower.
After sensing that Ning Fan’s qi was still in the tower, no one dared to enter the tower to investigate. They could only wait for him to exit from the tower and ask him about it.
On the eighth floor of the Buddha Tower, Ning Fan summoned the female corpse and sat on the ground with her in his embrace.
In the past, he did not have the confidence to fully recover the Sea of Consciousness of the female corpse. Now, after he stole the seven relics of the Buddha Tower, he was confident of curing her completely in a single try.
He inserted the seven relics inside the mouth of the female corpse one after another.
As the seven relics got to her abdomen, surges of healing power which seemed to be strong enough to bring the dead back to life spread throughout her body.
The body of a corpse devil did not have any life force. It would not have physiological activities. The injuries the body suffers could only be ‘repaired’, but not ‘healed’ at all.
However, these seven relics seemed to have given the female corpse a strand of life force which allowed the injuries that she had gotten in the past to be healed completely.
Her pale face revealed a reddish color of an ordinary healthy woman for the first time.
Her ice-cold hands had the warmth of a living human for the first time.
Her Sea of Consciousness was recovering bit by bit.
Magic power also began to fill up her withered immortal veins.
“This is… resurrection!”
Ning Fan’s eyes flashed with surprise. What he was seeing right now was beyond his imagination. It filled him with great joy.
The reason he stole the relics was only to help the female corpse heal her Sea of Consciousness and he had never thought that the female corpse would be revived because she lacked some pieces of her soul.
At this moment, however, the seven relics began to supply endless life force to the female corpse after entering her body. Now, she really was showing signs of life!
“Light… cold…” The female corpse knitted her brows tightly. She felt pain for the first time.
In the past, she was just a corpse devil which had no senses. She would not cry, feel pain or cold or even shed tears because of sadness.
Today, however, she actually said that she was cold in her dream.
Then, her body began to turn cold and weak again. Ning Fan did not know what went wrong.
He used his spirit sense to check the female corpse and very quickly, he found out that the reason why the female corpse would feel cold was because she was already dead and was also female. The yin qi in her body was too strong and she needed some yang blood which could supply her some yang qi.
Without any hesitation, Ning Fan swung his Separation Slayer Sword and made a cut on his arm to feed his blood to the female corpse.
The sharp fangs of the female corpse sank into Ning Fan’s arm and sucked his fresh blood unconsciously.
Ning Fan’s blood was just too delicious. Compared to the blood of other Divine Transformation Realm or Void Refinement Realm old monsters, Ning Fan’s blood was the most perfect.
The female corpse was still a corpse devil after all. How could she be able to withstand the temptations of flesh and blood. In an unconscious state, she clenched her jaw and tore a large piece of flesh from Ning Fan’s arm.
*Hiss*
Ning Fan took in a deep breath. This unexpected pain made him frown. However, it faded immediately and his expression was filled with affection right after.
She was a corpse devil and she made a mistake unconsciously. Thus, Ning Fan was not going to blame her.
After devouring a piece of Ning Fan’s flesh, the yang qi inside the female corpse’s body was replenished. With a satisfied smile on her face, she slept soundly.
Even though she showed signs of revival after consuming the seven relics, no one knew how long it would take for her to be completely revived.
Perhaps it would take a year, ten years, one hundred years or even one thousand years.
However, no matter how long she needed to sleep, Ning Fan would wait for the day she awakens and truly reunite with her.
When that time comes, she will be a living breathing Mu Weiliang. She would no longer be a corpse devil.
Ning Fan pointed his finger on his arm and stopped the bleeding. He was not concerned about treating his wound right away. Instead, he carefully held the hands of the female corpse and ma.s.saged her arms. Gradually, he extended his hands to her whole body in order to relax her muscles and activate the flow of her blood.
“From today onwards, you are no longer the female corpse. Instead, you are the true Mu Weiliang…”
Ning Fan revealed a hopeful look on his face. He really looked forward to the day when Mu Weiliang would finally wake up.
In his previous life, he was a b.u.t.terfly whereas she was the daughter of the celestial emperor. He sacrificed himself for her and she died because of him.
In this life, he had reborn as a human and Zhihe who was a part of her souls had saved him one again.
Be it Zhihe or Mu Weiliang, Ning Fan would certainly not let any of them to be harmed.
In order to protect her, he still needed to continue improving his cultivation base.
“You gave me a pair of b.u.t.terfly wings and I will grant you a peaceful life… I a.s.sure you…”
