Chapter 479: Chapter 479: Restoring the Ancestors and Devil Conferral (4)


The strange phenomenon tore the skies apart and seized the blood of the heavens.


The black blood turned into black qi and entered Ning Fan’s body. Meanwhile, the dark golden devil talisman on his palm emanated rays of dazzling dark light.


The shadow of a black devil mountain floated above the devil talisman which was as large as his palm.


The pattern of the devil talisman eventually condensed into an ancient rune with the image of a devil mountain which gave off an ancient and archaic qi.


It was the Mo Luo Ancestral Talisman which was one of the nine great ancestral talismans!


As Ning Fan willed it to disappear, the ancestral talisman seeped into his skin, entering his body.


Whenever he wishes for it, it would appear and answer his call.


The chanting voices of the devil scriptures in his ears gradually disappeared. Ning Fan’s eyes looked blank as he stared at the devil talisman on his palm which was still a bit warm. Fragments of memories slowly appeared in his Sea of Consciousness. The blood of the heavens had secretly brought them with it.


The nine great devil ancestors possessed the nine great ancestral talismans which controlled the power of Navagraha, the nine heavenly bodies of the world.


The ancestral talisman that Ning Fan had was the Mo Luo Ancestral Talisman which controlled the power of the earth.


The earth power was famous for its heaven-defying defense. If one refines their devil blood using the Mo Luo Ancestral Talisman or practices the devil cultivation method, the growth of their physical defense would far exceed those of body cultivators at the same level as them.


This ancestral talisman that Ning Fan condensed was his natal devil talisman. To ancient devils, a devil talisman was the primary requirement before they could start cultivating ancient devil body techniques.


The abilities of the ancient devil race’s body techniques were much stronger than the body techniques of the current era. They were known as “Devil Martial Arts”. One would not expend magic power when using Devil Martial Arts. Instead, what they would use was the essence qi of their ancient devil bloodlines.


There was no falsehood in saying that a truly powerful ancient devil could flatten mountains and destroy rivers by using just a strand of their essence qi.


The Devil Martial Arts they could display using essence qi was capable of unleashing terrifying destructive power.


Ordinary members of the devil races could not cultivate their own essence qi. Only ancient devils who possessed devil talismans could refine the medicinal power of heavenly ingredients and earthly treasures into essence qi and store it within their bodies.


The divine race cultivated magic power and it was all about the world outside their bodies. The devil race, on the other hand, cultivated their own physical bodies and it was focused on the world inside their bodies.


Ning Fan took out a Body Constructing Pill which was a Fourth Revolution Pill. After consuming it, he activated the ancestral talisman to digest its medicinal power.


All of its medicinal power turned into essence qi in the form of a strand of dark blood which eventually spread throughout his body.


His physical body which was already strong in the first place became even more sturdy after absorbing the trace of essence qi. The amount of power held in a single strand of essence qi was comparable to a single unit of a cultivator’s magic power!


After refining that trace of essence qi, Ning Fan was now considered to have officially stepped a foot into the great cultivation path of the ancient devils.


1 unit of essence qi immediately raised Ning Fan’s ancient devil cultivation realm to the Fourth Level of the Blood Refinement Realm which corresponded to the Harmonious Spirit Realm and was equivalent to the Fourth Level of the Silver Light Realm in terms of body refining.


Of course, the Fourth Level of the Blood Refinement Realm was much stronger than the Fourth Level of the Silver Light Realm despite the fact that both were cultivation levels for body refinement.


Ning Fan did not continue to raise the level of his essence qi. Instead, he seemed to be trying to think about something important.


He was about to attain the Golden Body Refining Realm soon. That level of body refinement was equivalent to the Reckless Devil Realm of the ancient devil cultivation realms. However, the Reckless Devil Realm was much stronger than the Golden Body Refining Realm even though they were supposed to be at the same level.


In ancient times, the combat power of a devil cultivator with the Reckless Devil Realm was far greater than a body cultivator with the Golden Body Refining Realm.


A Golden Body Refining Realm cultivator could put up a fight against Void Refinement Realm experts but the combat power a Reckless Devil Realm cultivator held could overwhelm those experts easily.


In the era where the ancient devils still existed, there were tons of Reckless Devil Realm cultivators who killed Void Refinement Realm cultivators like they were slaughtering dogs just by depending on the overwhelming strength of their physical bodies.


After contemplating for some time, Ning Fan realized that attaining the Golden Body Refining Realm would doubtlessly not be as strong as attaining the Reckless Devil Realm.


Even so, he still needed to achieve the Golden Body Refining Realm. After achieving a breakthrough to that level, he would borrow the power of his ancestral talisman to convert all the power of his Golden Body Refining Realm into essence qi to raise his ancient devil cultivation realm. By doing so, his combat power would certainly be enhanced greatly!


Thus, the first step of attaining the Reckless Devil Realm was to break through to the Golden Body Refining Realm!


“I’ve made a lot of preparations to attain the Golden Body Refining Realm. No matter what happens today, I must complete that breakthrough! The first thing to do is to consume pills that will raise my chances of having a successful breakthrough…”


Ning Fan kept the ancestral talisman into his body and took out different kinds of pills from his storage pouch. There were Revered Devil Pills, a Devil Raising Pill and a Golden Body Pill which was a Sixth Revolution Pill. All of them were pills that could increase his chances of success in attaining the Golden Body Refining Realm.


He consumed every single one of them without any hesitation. As their medicinal power took effect, Ning Fan’s entire body shone in a dazzling golden light again. One hundred golden orifices which were meant for storing the power of the golden light gradually formed inside his body.


The appearance of one hundred golden orifices indicated that Ning Fan had accomplished the first step of breaking through to the Golden Body Refining Realm.


The second step was to consume sufficient amounts of heavenly ingredients and earthly treasures to accumulate enough power to fill up all golden orifices. When that time comes, he could complete the breakthrough in a single try!


Ning Fan took out a jade bottle which contained a droplet of core blood of a sovereign beast. He got this item from Shi Kun. This droplet of blood contained all of the power inside a sovereign beast’s demon core.


He crushed the jade bottle with his hand and consumed the core blood. A wave of ferocious mystical power then spread out from his body like a fearsome beast.


The tremendous amount of power from the core blood made his body swell.


“Assimilate!”


Traces of power from the core blood were channeled into the golden orifices of his body. Eventually, every last one of the golden orifices were filled up by the power.


The golden light of Ning Fan’s body became even more intense. With that much power, he could already break through to the Golden Body Realm but he was still not done yet!


“The four traces of devil qi! Refine!”


His devil marks released four streams of power which went into his golden orifices.


More and more golden orifices began to develop inside his body. As the number of golden orifices increased, his physical body also became stronger.


After a brief moment, the number of golden orifices in his body reached 300. It was already at the standard of the Second Level of the Golden Body Refining Realm.


He opened his eyes at this moment. The bottleneck of the Golden Body Refining Realm that had been restraining him for a long time had now been broken.


Every inch of his body glowed in bright golden light, making him look like a man made of gold.


His aura force increased drastically. After breaking through to the First Level of the Golden Body Refining Realm, it continued to rise, reaching the Second Level!


A cultivator at the Second Level of the Golden Body Refining Realm could fight against a Void Inquiry Stage expert with just their physical strength!


However, even though Ning Fan had broken through to that level, he did not have the intention to relax at all. Instead, he wore a very serious look on his face.


He did not want to stop after just breaking through to the Golden Body Refining Realm.


What he wanted to do next was to convert all the power in his Golden Body Refining Realm into the essence qi of the ancient devils!


“Ancestral Talisman, appear!”


Ning Fan changed his hand seal. In the next instant, countless mysterious devil runes appeared on the surface of his pure golden body.


The devil runes turned every last ray of golden light in his body into dark blood threads carrying dark golden luster which went inside his body.


In a matter of seconds, all of the golden light in his golden orifices were converted into dark golden essence qi of his flesh!


The number of essence qi in his body was increasing at a much slower rate.


1 unit. 2 units… 5 units! After an incense stick of time, Ning Fan obtained 5 units of essence qi and his ancient devil cultivation realm broke through to the Seventh Level of the Blood Refinement Realm which was equivalent to the Gold Core Realm!


10 units. 20 units… 50 units! Four hours went by and he obtained 50 units of essence qi and broke through to the Bone Charm Realm which corresponded to the Nascent Soul Realm!


100 units. 500 units… 10000 units! One month later, the amount of essence qi he obtained reached ten thousand units and he achieved the Jade Blood Realm that was on par with the Divine Transformation Realm!


50000 units. 100000 units. 1000000units… 4000000 units! Ten years passed and Ning Fan managed to obtain four million units of essence qi after fully converting the total amount of power from his Second Level of the Golden Body Refining Realm. Every unit of essence qi was stored inside his body.


During the conversion process, Ning Fan sat on the ground like a statue for ten years and so his body was covered in dust.


Technically speaking, the amount of essence qi he had was already enough for him to attain the Mid Reckless Devil Realm but he seemed to have missed out on something to attain that legendary cultivation realm.


He silenced his mind and his consciousness sank into a boundless void. There was a gigantic devil mountain standing erect on a desolate continent that was floating in the hollow space.


A broken ancient stele stood on the foot of the devil mountain which was carved with three archaic characters in Gu Tuo Writing, “Devil Conferral Summit”!


There was a flight of stairs made out of bluestones on the mountain. It led straight to the summit of the devil clouds!


The Devil Conferral Summit was the place where the conferment of devils was made in ancient times. Only the ancient devils who possessed the devil talismans could come to this place in their consciousness when they are on the verge of breaking through to the Reckless Devil Realm to complete the test here!


The existence of the Devil Conferral Summit was similar to the Sea of Clouds. The Sea of Clouds was where the Divine Transformation Realm cultivators carved their names whereas the Devil Conferral Summit was the lost broken world where ancient devil cultivators were conferred with the Reckless Devil Realm.


“It’s really beyond my expectations for me to arrive at the legendary holy ground of the ancient devils – the Devil Conferral Summit, using my consciousness in the process of breaking through to the Reckless Devil Realm…”


Ning Fan remained silent for a while. He had read about some similar information regarding the Devil Conferral Summit from the scriptures on the devil slates.


When an ancient devil is breaking through to the Reckless Devil Realm, they must visit the Devil Conferral Summit to accept their test.


If one obtains an excellent result, they might even be rewarded.


Some ancient devils obtained devil weapons, some obtained devil cultivation methods or devil martial arts while some others obtained devil pills or devil medicines.


The Devil Conferral Summit was the place where the tests for the ancient devils were exclusively held and was also the place to confer power to them. No one knew who created it.


Ning Fan stood at the foot of the mountain. After stopping there for quite some time, he finally made his first step towards the devil mountain.


As soon as he made a step, 12 dark golden ancient giants suddenly fell from the sky, standing in front of his path.


“Stop taking another step forward! In order to ascend the Devil Conferral Summit, you must first pass three tests. This will be the first test!”


Each of the 12 giants had Early Reckless Devil Realm cultivation levels and none of them was a living being. Instead, they were just illusory shadows that were formed by some kind of magic technique. It was unknown for how long they had existed in this place.


“What is the test?!” Ning Fan raised his head, disregarding the vigorous aura forces of the 12 giants.


“Show us your devil blood. If your devil blood is weaker than the true grade devil blood, get out of the Devil Conferral Summit!”


Each of the 12 giants was an ancient devil with true devil bloodline.


The devil might of 12 true devil bloodlines were comparable to the sum of the aura force of the devil blood of 12 Moksha Emperors. It was strong enough to crush any Divine Transformation Realm cultivator!


Ning Fan’s eyes remained cold and indifferent. He did not have the slightest hint of fear facing the aura force from the bloodlines of the 12 giants.


He took another step forward. A wave of aura force that only those with the bloodline of a King Devil could give off soared into the sky, rushing towards the 12 giants and sending them back with blood flowing out of their mouths. All of them stared at Ning Fan in disbelief.


“You’re a King Devil!? A devil with royal grade devil bloodline!”


“Destroy!”


Ning Fan unleashed all of his devil might. That illusory power formed into 12 gigantic fists which landed on the chests of the giants that also had the similarly illusory bodies.


At the next moment, all twelve of them broke into pieces and disappeared. Without a doubt, Ning Fan had passed the first test!


Just as Ning Fan got through the first test, a black flash shot out from the devil mountain, turning into an old box made out of ebony wood that descended flatly on the center of his palm.


This black wooden box was none other than the reward from the devil mountain of the Devil Conferral Summit for passing the first test.


He opened the wooden box and discovered a black crystal inside it which exudes great devil qi. There was an inheritance of a style of magic technique inside the crystal.


As he touched the crystal using just the tip of his finger, it instantly shattered and an archaic voice resounded in his Sea of Consciousness immediately after that. That voice imparted a huge amount of information to him.


His expression changed. In just an instant, he had learned a secret technique of the ancient devil race from the first reward of the first test.


“Ancient Devil Dao – Void Teleportation… It’s different from the one the divine race had. The ancient devil race teleports using their essence qi and wouldn’t use their magic power for that purpose. Even so, the speed of their movement technique is definitely not any weaker than that of the divine race…”


He activated his essence qi and countless traces of black smoke spiraled around him. Without the sound of “chi”, he disappeared into smoke.


The traces of smoke flew towards the peak of the devil mountain at an unimaginable speed. When Ning Fan had flown to one-third of the mountain’s height, a massive black palace emerged in front of him.


There were 8 ancient devils standing guard outside the palace. All of them were also at the Early Reckless Devil Realm.


However, the qi of these 8 individuals were much stronger than those of the 12 giants he previously met at the foot of the mountain.


There was a devil stele outside the black palace as well which had been carved with three words – Devil Talisman Palace.


As the eight of them noticed that Ning Fan was trying to ascend the Devil Conferral Summit, they all shouted in a thunderous voice.


“Cease any movement! In order to ascend the Devil Conferral Summit, you will need to pass three tests of Devil Conferral. This will be the second test!”


“What’s the test?!”


“Devour the remnant talismans within this Devil Talisman Palace using your devil talisman. You will pass the second test by devouring 8 of them!”


*Puff*


Just as the voices of the eight giants fell, a strong violent devil gust blew across the area all of a sudden.


Ning Fan raised his palm and his dark golden devil talisman released a tremendous amount of devil might that drew in the wind and clouds.


When the eight giants saw Ning Fan’s devil talisman, all of their faces were filled with shock.


“A-Ancestral Talisman! It’s actually the Mo Luo Ancestral Talisman!”
