Three routes

The secret chamber was enveloped with silence. But slowly… an enchanting atmosphere engulfed the space.

Ning Fan’s palm carresed Suqiu’s calf, ankle then down to her toes, forcing the Dead Silk poison to be purged out of her Immortal Vein and converged at one spot.

Humans were not emotionless, especially when your hand was caressing a woman’s body. Ning Fan focused upon his nose and his heart, silently reciting the Yin Yang Transformation. Under the effect of the desire, it enhanced the the Yin Yang Transformation by a small margin.

From the separation of the black and white incarnation, Ning Fan now had a better understanding of the word Yin and Yang. Plus, he also gained an insight with the enhancement of the Yin Yang Transformation.

Both the act of plucking and dual cultivating could allow his cultivation realm to improve.

By facing the naked bodies of women, the improvement of the cultivation realm could be achieved through the sharpening of the mind.

The toes of the noble, forthright, ardent-natured and pure Suqiu could easily arouse evil intention. By repeatedly suppressing those evil thoughts, it allowed the cultivation of Yin Yang Transformation to slowly move towards the second level.

Each level of cultivation stage was separated into nine realms. The previous romantic experiences had pushed Ning Fan’s cultivation level to reach the second realm of first level. Currently, it was showing signs of breaking through towards the third realm.

Suqiu was a half-step Nascent Soul expert that was almost the same as a real female Nascent Soul. Plus, she was a virgin and had an extremely dense Origin Yin Qi. The Origin Yin Qi that was faintly emitted under her skirt had also enabled Ning Fan’s cultivation to improve by a large margin.

The requirement to reach the second level of the Yin Yang Transformation was to conduct sexual intercourse with a Nascent Soul for 99 times. Which meant that every 11 times of sexual intercourse, it would allow him to break through a small realm. Whereas if the Nascent Soul was a virgin, the first sexual intercourse would be equivalent to a dozen times…

With a female Nascent Soul cultivator that was still a virgin like Suqiu, lying unconscious in front of Ning Fan, he would undoubtedly rape her if his evil thoughts overcame him. It would be hard to pluck her cultivation realm. Nevertheless, he would have a high chance to break through the level of his cultivation by utilizing her Origin Yin Blood.

Once his cultivation level of Yin Yang Transformation reached the second realm, He could probably activate the second divine ability of the Yin Yang Locket…

“I would benefit a lot if I pluck her, but this would violate my Dao Heart…”

Ning Fan sighed lightly while his palm touched her toes. He then shook his head and continued to detoxify the poison.

In the end, his words were all heard by the seemingly unconscious Yin Suqiu, making her blush inwardly.

“This little fellow has such gall to even think of plucking me…” 

Her embarrassment was later replaced with slight worries. At the moment, her body was deeply poisoned, and she felt powerless against Ning Fan’s touch. If Ning Fan really wanted to rape her, she certainly didn’t have a chance to defend herself…

Luckily, Ning Fan had no intention of plucking her cultivation. Otherwise, she wouldn’t know what to do if that really happened.

Hence, Suqiu had now gained a better understanding of Ning Fan.

This little fellow was young yet he was both ruthless and extremely audacious. As he cultivated the Dual Cultivation, he wouldn’t have any problem plucking her cultivation. However this little fellow had an unrelenting stubbornness.. Otherwise, given his abilities, he could easily conquer the whole Yue Country and seek a large number of female Gold Cores and pluck their cultivation…

Yin Suqiu couldn’t help but feel confused and inevitably scared after hearing him say the language that was related to plucking, especially when her calf was being caressed by him.

Even if she didn’t open her eyes, she could already imagine that Ning Fan was currently detoxifying the poison within her body and admiring her legs, probably even struggling on whether to pluck her cultivation.

An old ancestor like herself had become a little lamb waiting to be butchered. If Ning Fan was overwhelmed by his evil thoughts and moved his hands upwards from her calf, her private part would have been invaded, and she would lose her virginity.

Truth to be told, why did no one stop Ning Fan when he brought her to the secret chamber? Why didn’t her two senior brothers monitor Ning Fan and protect her purity?

Yes… She had betrayed the Great Void Sect… Senior Brother Zhong Xuanzi, Senior Brother Bei Hongzi would not care about her anymore…

She felt a shred of sadness emerging from her heart and had lost all the sense of security.

But at this moment, Ning Fan once again stopped his hand and said to himself,

“I will not pluck you… Ning City is indebted to you this time… And I owe you a favour. If you face any crisis, I, Ning Fan, shall protect you once more no matter how strong the enemy is, as a repayment for the favour.”

Those words were not said to Suqiu, but to Ning Fan himself.

At this moment, he had ceased to struggle with his desires in the face of this beauty. His Dao Heart firmly stabilized as he ruthlessly suppressed his Heart Devil! This allowed his Mental Realm to improve enormously!

He was unaware that his words were like a drop of spring rain that had given a trace of warmth to the lonely Yin Suqiu.

Gradually,Yin Suqiu no longer worried and believed that Ning Fan wouldn’t do anything bad against her.

As her heart relaxed, the feeling of fatigue finally overtook her. She then fell into a semi-unconscious state. Despite feeling Ning Fan touching her body, she did not resist. She believed that it was all for the sake of detoxification.

After forcing all of the poison into a single spot, he pierced a hole at the ankle to allow him to use his mouth and suck the poison out… When she felt Ning Fan’s tongue touching her foot, her body trembled, but she immediately endured it silently. However her body trembled once again, a sensation that felt like an electric shock flowed from her toes, to her jade legs, to her lower abdomen and slowly spread towards her whole body…

It was an excruciating experience for a girl who extremely valued her own chastity… Suqiu endured patiently with hardship, yet the series of excruciating experience kept on coming over and over again.

Ning Fan could feel the composition of the toxin that existed within her body. Hence, he now had an idea on the dosage of the antidote needed. He then compounded the antidote and fed it to Suqiu. Ning Fan’s finger would inevitably touch Suqiu’s lips in the process

When his finger touched upon her lips, Suqiu’s heart palpitated crazily. But she continued to pretend to be unconscious.

After that, Ning Fan took out a burner and lit upto ten medicinal fragrance. Suqiu then slept soundly under the effect of this fragrance. The toxin was expelled from her body like silk in the strands of green mist, it was an extremely weird sight to behold.

Suqiu’s suffering had finally ended… Perhaps to her, this suffering would be remembered as a special memory?

The Dead Silk Poison had finally been detoxified. The fatigue finally caught Ning Fan who had not rested and was busy treating Suqiu. His body finally gave up and he collapsed on the floor…

He too, was badly injured.

…

Ning Fan only woke up ten days later and Suqiu had long been gone. Only Ning Fan was left alone, and was carefully covered with a blanket within the secret chamber.

There was a handkerchief with the word “Thanks” written on it by the pillow. The word was beautiful yet strong. This showed that the writer must have stubborn principles.

Naturally, it was written by Suqiu.

Ning Fan only smiled lightly, and didn’t put this in his heart. Then casually, he kept the handkerchief and left the secret chamber.

Thirteen days had passed since the great battle had ended. Ning City was currently crowded with people. Most of the people who came to visit were from Sinister Sparrow Sect, Fire Cloud Sect and other sects who had previously requested a Nascent Formation pill.

Those sects that did not send reinforcement to Ning City feared that they had offended Black Devil Ning and might lose their chance of getting the precious pill, so they had come to visit with lavish gifts one after another.

Ning Fan did not bother meeting these people this time. As for the gifts, they were all accepted by Nan Gong.

Regarding the Nascent Formation pill, he would not go back on his words since he had already promised them.

What followed after that was a three-month long seclusion. In these three months and under the nourishment of innumerable medicinal pills, Ning Fan was fully recovered. However, his complexion was still as pale as a delicate scholar due to him severely lacking blood essence in his body.

For another next three months, an unbelievable phenomenon was seen above the skies of Ning City. It looked like a scene where a Fourth Revolution Pill was successfully formed.

Seven months had passed since the war, and Ning Fan’s desire to leave Yue Country became stronger.

Ning Fan, Gui Qiaozi and Jing Zhuo gathered in Ning City’s meeting hall for a conference. They were joined by Nan Gong and other high ranking officials of Ning City. The topic of discussion was about Ning Fan’s journey towards the Endless Sea and his core formation!

Nan Gong had been gathering information for the past seven months under the order of Ning Fan. There were three confirmed routes towards the Endless Sea.

The Endless Sea was situated at the far eastern side of the Rain World. The sphere of influence over there was measured by every floating island. There were thousands of islands over there, and each of those islands was occupied by either sects or cultivation clans.

One of the most famous ones was the “Ten Sects and Three Islands”. The ten sects were the strongest sects in the Endless Sea and were founded by humans. Whereas the three islands were a place of gathering for rogue cultivators. Each island was as big as a country. The Lost World Palace was just situated in one of those islands.

The first of the three routes was to depart from the east of Wu Country and cross over 10 Cultivation Countries, reaching the Ocean Country then ride on a ship… The distance of this route amounted to millions of li. This would take Ning Fan years to reach the Endless Sea if he travelled without using any form of transportation.

The second route was slightly faster than the first, departing through the south through the Chen Country, and crossing five cultivation countries until he reached Yu Country. Yu Country had a special Gold Core hawk beast that could fly as fast as a Nascent Soul cultivator, however one had to pay a high price to ride it. The maximum time required for this route was three years to reach the Endless Sea, which was at least two years faster compared to the first.

Ning Fan had never once nodded for the first two routes. It was already considered  quick if he were to reach the Endless Sea in three years, but he was short of time… he needed a quicker alternative…

Under the reminder of Old Ancestor Jing Zhuo, the third route was confirmed by Ning Fan.

The journey was to head north, entering the Song Country, passing through four Cultivation Countries, and finally, entering a mid-ranked Cultivation Country—Jin Country.

The cultivators in Jin Country were not strong. The strongest cultivator was only a Nascent Soul. But there was a division of Rain Palace established within the country, and an immemorial teleportation formation.

Each activation of the immemorial teleportation formation required a vast amount of immortal jade. It could teleport a person for a distance of  millions of li. It was rumored that the formation was initially an Immortal Void Realm Teleportation Formation, however it was broken and wasn’t worth researching anymore.

The teleportation formation was a good money-making method. Hence, a division of the Rain Palace was set up to monopolize the formation.

The formation was modified and was then separated into a dozen small formations by the Rain World’s Formation Grandmasters. It could teleport cultivators to a dozen locations, and one of them was the Ocean Country, the entry point to the Endless Sea.

The payment for the teleportation formation was around 100,000 immortal jades and above per person. Such a price was deemed astronomical. Cultivators who were below Nascent Soul realm wouldn’t be able to afford it.

Jing Zhuo was reluctant to choose this route as his whole asset only amounted to 100,000 immortal jades. He would rather spend several more years taking the longer route. However, Ning Fan made up his mind without hesitation as soon as he heard of this route.

Only a year was needed to reach the Endless Sea!

“We’ll pick this route then!”

Ning Fan’s choice gave Old Ancestor Jing Zhuo the urged to stop him, but looking at the resolute expression of Ning Fan’s face, Jing Zhuo decided to shut his mouth.

He did not know why Ning Fan was in such a hurry. Perhaps… Ning Fan had his own reasons.

If it was not for Ning Fan, only God knows when he could he kill Old Devil Purple Yin. However, did he really need to escort Ning Fan through this route? Rumours had it that Jin Country was becoming unstable recently…

“Forget it, this old man shall give up 100,000 immortal jades and escort you through this route!” In the end, Jing Zhuo clenched his teeth and made his decision.

“Then… I shall thank Fellow Daoist Jing Zhuo for your kindness… The date of departure would be 10 days later, since this long journey will require a lot of preparation,” Ning Fan smilingly said to Jing Zhuo.

He was already prepared to leave Yue country in the next 10 years. All of the Nascent Formation Pills were already concocted and were sent to Gui Qiaozi. Each of those pills would be given to each sect according to the agreed dates.

The remaining preparation was to bid farewell to Yue Country where he had lived for two years.

I have to at least go back and visit Master and Ning Gu…

He originally wanted to go back and visit Demon Sinister Forest one more time. But after giving it some thought, he changed his mind. Given the fact that he now had a life and death enmity with the Bone Sovereign, if he went back now, it would only trigger the fury of Bone Sovereign. The sovereign would then hunt down him at all costs, creating events that Ning Fan could never foresee.

“Yue Country… This is the place where I started my Devil Cultivation, made friends and enemies… I will return if I am not dead…”

…

Ning Fan was mysteriously called away by Zhi He right after he left the meeting hall.

“Brother Fan, Sisi said she’s unwell, she asked you to treat her tonight…”

“To treat her? What illness does she have?” Ning Fan looked at Zhi He’s blinking eyes, feeling puzzled.

“Of course there is… anyway… you’ll know the moment you get there… You do not need to come to my room tonight… ” Zhi He blushed and ran away. Only God knew what she and Si Wuxie had discussed.

Ning Fan’s gaze sharpened. In his opinion, Si Wuxie had probably recovered her memories. Because he was busy recovering and refining pills for these past few months, he had not paid any attention towards her… What ulterior motives did she have for asking him to go to her room? Or was it because of some erotic motive?

“ … ”

“Anyhow… a settlement has to be made with this girl… whether she is the clone of the Jade Pool Saintess or still Sisi… This girl had obviously restored her memories, yet she had helped me once. Her thoughts are hard to read…”
