"Greetings, Senior Nangong!"
When Ye Fan met Nangong Zheng, he quickly bowed. Nangong Zheng had done him a great favor. If it weren't for him, his cultivation path would have been interrupted. It was Nangong Zheng who defied the heavens and restored it from the short circuit.
Although Nangong Zheng once said that everything was a transaction, Ye Fan still respected him from the bottom of his heart; after all, Nangong Zheng had indeed helped him a lot.
"What is this?" Nangong Zheng looked at the other two people, because besides Ye Fan, there were two other living beings.
To be more precise, it was a little girl and a big, strong black dog.
It was a big black dog, much bigger than a common mongrel, about the size of a cow. It was jet black all over, with a square head and large ears. Its fur was as smooth as silk, and it was even bigger than a tiger.
Nangong Zheng's eyes flashed like lightning as he glanced at the big black dog. He immediately understood that this dog must be the big black dog that Emperor Wushi kept in his later years, the Black Emperor.
"A peerless figure among the human race of this era, truly remarkable!" The big black dog was shocked. After being glanced at by Nangong Zheng, it felt a chill run down its spine. It found this person too terrifying and immediately tucked its bald tail between its legs.
"Greetings, Senior Nangong!" the big black dog said in a deep voice, its large head drooping, looking harmless.
"Hello, Uncle Nangong?!" A childish voice rang out from the back of the big black dog.
A delicately carved porcelain doll, quite adorable, sat on the back of a large black dog, its bright eyes blinking with innocence.
"This is my adopted little sister, Xiao Nannan!" Ye Fan affectionately patted the little girl's head and introduced her to Nangong Zheng.
"A cruel person attaining enlightenment? Little girl!"
Nangong Zheng was slightly startled. He glanced at the little girl and vaguely sensed an extremely terrifying energy within her. If touched, it could cause the heavens and earth to collapse and destroy the universe
"As expected of the Dao Fruit of the Ruthless Great Emperor!" he thought to himself with a slight sense of admiration.
Although he can now fight against ancient saints, he still senses the unfathomable depth of the little girl.
It could be said that the more terrifying a character is, the more terrifying the little girl will seem.
Nangong Zheng turned his gaze away from the little girl and began talking to Ye Fan.
Ye Fan recounted Nuo's experiences over the past year to Nangong Zheng. He had a very good time during this period because of Jiang Taixu and Fairy Caiyun. The Jiang family and Wan Chu Holy Land both provided him with protection, deterring many scoundrels.
Furthermore, many forces are currying favor with a holy body that has succeeded the one that was cut off, believing that it can achieve great things in the future and rule the World for more than 10,000 years.
It can be said that he has had a smooth year, and his cultivation has improved significantly, even surpassing his level at this point in the original story.
Of course, there were some minor incidents; members of an assassin organization attacked him, but he managed to survive.
"What brings you here to see me?" Nangong Zheng asked, getting to the point. He knew Ye Fan wouldn't come looking for nothing.
"Thank you so much for your help, senior. I have no way to repay you. I have learned of a place where the complete 'Travel Technique' may be hidden! Ye Fan said.
He pointed out that the secret of the character "行" is very likely the sacred cliff in the central region of the Eastern Wilderness.
"You're trying to use my power to explore, aren't you!" Nangong Zheng smiled, exposing Ye Fan's deception.
"I can't hide it from you, senior. I heard that your strength has greatly improved and you have achieved the Saintly rank, so I came to invite you to explore the Sacred Cliff." Ye Fan was thick-skinned and didn't feel embarrassed at all. He spoke directly without hiding anything.
He had heard that Nangong Zheng was suspected of becoming a saint and had become the Supreme Elder of the Tai Xuan Sect, which was why he came looking for him.
After all, that place was not safe. It was set up with the array patterns of an emperor, and even the old Daoist Chilong had been trapped there for over a thousand years. You could imagine how terrifying it was. Without a great expert, he dared not go there lightly.
Now, he came to repay his debt of gratitude and seek strong support, because he already knew Nangong Zheng quite well and believed he would be very interested in the "Xingzi Secret".
"If that's the case, then let's make the trip!" After a moment's thought, Nangong Zheng made his decision. He naturally wanted the "Travel Secret" of the Nine Secrets.
In the original novel, Ye Fan, along with Old Madman, Little Girl, Big Black Dog, and others, entered the Sacred Cliff and obtained the Xingzi Secret.
Now that I possess the strength of a saint, coupled with the ruthless Dao fruit of Xiao Nannan, there shouldn't be any problems.
Let's go!
Nangong Zheng looked up at the sky, pointed a finger, and a powerful energy wave emanated, divine light soared into the sky, and the void was torn apart.
Ye Fan and the big black dog were both shocked. Such a method, crossing the void without relying on a domain gate, could only be accomplished by a saint of this era.
Before long, the group arrived in the central region of the Eastern Wilderness, where the Sacred Cliff was located.
The Eastern Wilderness is vast and boundless, with millions of miles of uninhabited primitive land. Human settlements are relatively concentrated, and towns are generally connected, forming a prosperous region.
In the central region, the ten ancient cities form ten distinct centers, and the surrounding areas are densely populated with humans and demons.
In the heart of this region, there are many supreme sects and ancient families of the demon race, scattered among the surrounding famous mountains and rivers.
Their arrival in an ancient city immediately sparked a heated discussion, with many people turning their attention to Nangong Zheng and Ye Fan.
"That person... is the Holy Body Ye Fan!"
Some people were surprised that Ye Fan's reputation had soared during this period, and he was in the limelight for a time. As the only person in hundreds of thousands of years to break the curse, he was closely watched.
"It's actually Nangong Zheng, the King of the Eastern Wilderness!"
Someone exclaimed in surprise, recognizing the snow-white-haired, imposing Nangong Zheng.
Today, Nangong Zheng is a powerful figure in the Eastern Wilderness; who doesn't know the King of the Eastern Wilderness?
Various forces had long collected the portrait of Nangong Zheng, so many people in the ancient city recognized him.
They recalled the rumors circulating today: during this time, Nangong Zheng had become the Supreme Elder of the Tai Xuan Sect, his strength had advanced further, and he was suspected of having attained sainthood.
Clang!
A dazzling rainbow descended from the sky, its diameter reaching three zhang, carrying a tremendous wave of energy—it was an unparalleled sword beam!
This is a deadly technique unleashed by someone at the Dao-Slaying level, capable of annihilating both the real and the illusory, and breaking through nothing!
A peerless expert had hidden himself in the shadows, seemingly waiting quietly for his arrival, intending to annihilate him.
"What? Someone actually dares to attack the King of the Eastern Wilderness! This is a deadly sword technique in the mortal World!"
In the mortal World, there is a terrifying assassin dynasty organization that has been hidden for countless years, and it is about to reveal itself.
Everyone's expression changed. Had the World gone mad? Or had they become so arrogant that they dared to attack even the most powerful sages of the time?
"The human World? You have some nerve!"
Nangong Zheng's expression turned cold and sharp. He hadn't expected that the people of the Assassin Dynasty in the mortal realm would actually attack him!
He emitted a brilliant divine light that enveloped Ye Fan, Xiao Nannan, and the big black dog, protecting them and preventing harm.
At the same time, he flicked his finger, and a blue light rippled, with all nine leaves opening at once, instantly shattering the assassin's peerless sword light!
Furthermore, the vast sky shattered, revealing a massive black hole. The sword light emanated from the domain gate, and the hidden Dao-Slaying King dared not reveal his true form.
"You rats in the gutter, hiding your heads and showing your tails, do you think I can't do anything to you? Kill them!"
Nangong Zheng said coldly and began to shake his finger. A terrifying aura appeared in the World. One after another, flowers of the Great Dao bloomed, crystal clear and flying all over the sky. These were the petals of the Great Dao that he had created using the Dao of Nature!
Almost everyone in the ancient city collapsed to the ground, unable to withstand such terrifying pressure!
boom!
A terrifying surge of divine power erupted, and petals danced across the void, heading towards the other side of nothingness.
Everyone was stunned, their faces filled with horror. What kind of divine magic was this!
The sky was torn apart like a tattered cloth, and countless petals pierced through the void.
Not long after, a shrill scream came from the other end of the void, and the Dao-Slaying King, who had secretly made the move, fell!
Everyone was utterly shocked. As expected of the King of the Eastern Wilderness! His methods were so clean and efficient that they easily eliminated a terrifying assassin!
"Killer Dynasty, you have already found your way to death. I will personally ascend your ancient hall and cut you all to pieces. Wash your necks and wait for me!" Nangong Zheng declared coldly, his hands behind his back.
