“The sword qi belongs to one of the ancient swords that were collected by the old man of the Sword Island… Among his collection, there is an incomplete piece of a sword which was discovered in the Ancient Heavenly Court. It should belong to one of the Four Swords of Immortal Execution. If I am not wrong, it’s probably a fragment of the Immortal Entrapping Sword… If you are able to save Qiuling, the fragment will be yours. It will greatly benefit your Sword Consciousness and Sword Sense… As for repaying your favor, this old man will use the power of ‘Immortal Blood’ to help you perform divination once! I am also able to pry into any secrets even if it is the secret of Heaven!”
The pair of bottomless eyes on Dong Xu’s face suddenly flashed red.
Ning Fan’s mind felt a sudden jolt. He finally understood why Dong Xu gave him an inexplicable sense of mystery.
Somewhere around his glabella was a drop of sealed True Immortal’s Blood!
It was because of the drop of True Immortal’s Blood that Dong Xu could see the luck of cultivators which none of them would notice. It was also because of the drop of True Immortal’s Blood that he was recognized as the best practitioner of the art of divination in the Rain World!
The spiritual power contained within the drop of blood was much more massive than the total magic power of an Early Spirit Severing Realm expert!
This blood had been refined and assimilated by Dong Xu for more than thousands of years making it impossible to be given to another person. If Dong Xu sacrifices the blood, he would gain the power to seek and predict the inscrutable secret of Heaven.
In other words, he would be able to find out Old Devil’s archenemy, Ning Fan’s origin, the True Immortal whom Ning Fan offended by accident and even the person who was manipulating Ning Fan’s luck in the dark!
Ning Fan and Dong Xu were communicating through telepathy all this while. As such, the other people in the room did not have the slightest clue of what they were discussing.
Yu Long did not dare to interrupt them; the female corpse’s eyes only had the reflection of Ning Fan; Xu Qiuling felt anxious as she was worried about what her master would speak about to Ning Fan.
After a long while, both of them finally stopped their telepathy. All of a sudden, Dong Xu’s facial expression turned serious.
“Are you willing to marry Ling Er2 and save her?!”
“If you are willing, I will help you obtain Giant Qing’s inheritance of Evil Luo!”
“If you are willing, I will sacrifice the True Immortal’s Blood and perform divination for you!”
“If you are willing, I can refine a treasure for you which can hinder experts at the Spirit Severing Realm and even those of the Void Fragmentation Realm from accessing any information about you!”
“If you are willing, I will also teach you all my abilities and even give you thousands of Immortal’s Abode Magical Treasures and seventeen Spirit Severing Realm spiritual puppets, granting you the power to rule the Internal Endless Sea!”
“If you are willing, I won’t hesitate to bring you to every island and cultivation countries within the Internal Endless Sea to search for sufficient resources in order to retain your luck and guarantee the success rate of your Devil Transformation!”
“If you are willing, I will even gift you one-third of the map of the Thunder Emperor’s Tomb! Although it is an incomplete map, but almost every Spirit Severing Realm expert of the Internal Endless Sea yearn for it because within the tomb lies the lifelong inheritance of Thunder Emperor Bu Zhou!”
“Now, tell me, are you willing to marry Ling Er and make her your wife and protect her from death?!”
At this moment, the small room was filled with Dong Xu’s immense aura which was beyond everyone’s grasp, including Ning Fan!
Xu Qiuling’s eyes were filled with disbelief. She never expected that the teacher whom she spent most of her time with was not an Early Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, but an expert who was multiple times stronger than her own father!
Yu Long felt that his Nascent Soul was on the verge of crumbling. Under that powerful aura, he was as insignificant as an ant! After hearing all the benefits that Dong Xu offered to Ning Fan, Yu Long’s eyes were filled with flames of desire. If he were the man who was chosen by Dong Xu, with the abilities, magical treasures, Spirit Severing Realm spiritual puppets and guaranteed resources for attaining the Spirit Severing Realm, he would also be able to become one of the rulers of the Internal Endless Sea and a matchless expert in the External Endless Sea!
As for the female corpse, her gaze never left Ning Fan all this while.
Ning Fan leisurely drank his tea with a smile on his face, apparently impervious to Dong Xu’s aura and his offers.
Outside the room, no one knew that Venerated Dong Xu, one of the Venerated Seven of the Internal Endless Sea, had tried to entice Ning Fan with such temptations.
However, for Ning Fan, those temptations were not really tempting.
After all, he had the memories of Ancient Chaos Emperor. Aside from that, his master, Old Devil, was one of the Deacons of the Four Oceans, a being whom the Sovereign of the Rain World would not even dare to offend.
With regards to the abilities of Dong Xu, they were not something that Ning Fan valued dearly.
“While Senior can help me in my Devil Transformation, I, too, can help Senior attain the Void Refinement Realm… As far as I can see, Senior is stuck in the Peak Spirit Severing Realm although it is only a hair’s breadth away from achieving the Void Refinement Realm. Do you know what is hindering you from breaking through?”
“Er…That’s…Hey… I am the one who is offering you benefits now…”
“About Qiuling, I am more than willing to marry her, let alone save her. Not only that, I am even capable in helping you break through to the Void Refinement Realm.”
“What?! Are you joking with me?! You can help this old man to attain the Void Refinement Realm?! How is that possible?! I have been stuck at my current cultivation level for more than a thousand years already…”
Dong Xu lost his composure as his plan had been disrupted.
Originally, he was the one who offered Ning Fan benefits. But now, it seemed that his role had been reversed with Ning Fan…
This kid whose hair is not even fully grown yet can help me break through to the Void Refinement Realm? Is he kidding me?
Has he even comprehended the power of the Void Realm?
Hmm. Maybe he knows how to refine Sixth Revolution Pills that can help me in my breakthrough?
Wait. How come this kid is trying to help me now? What is he up to exactly?
“The power of the Void Realm…Hmm…”
Ning Fan’s lips curved into a smile. He imprinted what Ancient Chaos Emperor learnt from mastering the utilization of the power of the Void Realm into a jade slip from his memories and passed it to Dong Xu.
Because of the limitation of his current cultivation level, he was not able to comprehend it. The reviews and comments about the power of the Void Realm were alien to him, just like the words of the demon race.
But when Dong Xu glanced through the content of the jade slip, his expression greatly changed.
He was different from Ning Fan. He was stuck in the Peak Spirit Severing Realm for so long and all this while, he had been trying to figure out the power of the Void Realm. However, none of his understanding was on the right track.
With just a glance on the jade slip, Dong Xu found a sense of direction. Unfortunately, the content was half-complete!
With this jade slip, Dong Xu was already able to find the correct direction for his breakthrough.
If he obtains the full content, he would be able to discover the bottleneck that was preventing his breakthrough.
Once he discovers it, he could then progress to the next cultivation level. The resources and pills needed to ensure a higher success rate are just a secondary consideration.
Right now, Dong Xu had yet to even find the threshold for his breakthrough. Why should he be worried about the means to overcome the threshold?
Dong Xu gulped.
At first, he was the person who held the higher ground in the negotiation with Ning Fan. But now, he was silenced merely by a jade slip from Ning Fan.
