Chapter 1075: Chapter 1075
Stepping into the Teleportation Array, Ding Fan was seized by dizziness. Everything blurred before his eyes, rendering him unable to see anything. His body felt weightless, like a feather caught in the wind, drifting aimlessly. Ding Fan lost all sense of time in this state.
At last, he was about to land. Ding Fan felt the ground beneath him grow solid, his body no longer adrift. Not long after, Ding Fan instinctively adopted a defensive stance as he was teleported out.
"What dense Spiritual Energy!"
Returning to the Cultivation World, Ding Fan hadn't even opened his eyes when he felt the rich Spiritual Energy permeate his surroundings. His mind cleared instantly, and he took a deep breath, exclaiming in amazement.
After the indeterminate duration of the teleportation, Ding Fan, still somewhat dizzy, took a while before he slowly opened his eyes.
If not for Ding Fan's cultivation, a normal person would not only be unable to stand from such a long-distance teleportation but fainting and being unconscious for three days and nights would be quite normal.
At this moment, Ding Fan found himself in a dense forest, with radiant sunshine enchanting the surrounding leaves with vibrant colors, creating a beautiful scene, and the Spiritual Energy was invigorating.
The sight before him filled Ding Fan with a sense of peace and happiness. Such abundant Spiritual Energy, and every plant and tree around him bore the characteristics of the Cultivation World, leaving Ding Fan in admiration.
At this moment, Ding Fan was concerned about the whereabouts of Zhou Ruoran, Gusu Qingwen, and Ye Ningbing, so he unleashed his Divine Sense directly.
In the Cultivation World, with its vast lands and bizarre rocks... after a careful search by Ding Fan, there was indeed no trace of them.
Ding Fan furrowed his brows. One must remember how perilous the Cultivation World was.
This place could not be compared to Earth. Here, the law was almost nonexistent, and might was right in this world. The strong devour the weak, and those with the biggest fists call the shots!
He realized that he was in a forest in the middle of a mountain.
It was still early, and Ding Fan intended to see if he could find someone to inquire about. However, as soon as he took a step, his body suddenly went soft, almost causing him to fall.
It was then that Ding Fan noticed his current bodily state was very weak. Presumably, due to the unknown duration of teleportation, he had been in a constant state of tense defense, though he hadn't realized the consumption of True Qi initially. Unexpectedly, his body was now nearly exhausted.
There was no other choice; Ding Fan could only lean against a vast tree and sit cross-legged.
The most urgent matter now was to restore his body.
Immediately, Ding Fan activated his Cultivation Technique, a faint layer of True Qi coating his body's surface while the dense Spiritual Energy around him continually flowed into him. In no time, Ding Fan felt a sense of fullness within his dantian.
When Ding Fan reopened his eyes, it was already evening.
Ding Fan intended to leave this forest as soon as possible. In the Cultivation World, besides many cunning and vicious cultivators, there were even more cold-blooded and dangerous Yuan Beasts. If he encountered some strong Yuan Beast once it got dark, it would still be a significant hassle for Ding Fan.
Suddenly, just as Ding Fan was about to stand up, a series of flying darts swiftly flew towards Ding Fan's direction.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
The flying darts pierced through the air, making a harsh sound, exceptionally shrill in the somewhat dim and silent forest at this time.
Ding Fan, with a flicker, sidestepped the incoming darts. Just a few dull thuds were heard as a series of flying darts stabbed into a large tree not far from where Ding Fan stood.
The flying darts were not aimed at him.
At this moment, a sharp cry for help from a woman reached him.
Subsequently, a disheveled yet beautiful woman appeared before Ding Fan, stumbling towards him, occasionally crying out for help.
The woman had a great figure, with delicate features, but at this moment, she appeared noticeably panicked and pale. A trace of blood was on the corner of her mouth, and her hair was somewhat disheveled, adding to her slightly unruly appearance.
Clearly, she was being chased and was in flight.
Ding Fan wasn't wrong in his estimation. In a short time, two male cultivators came rushing after the woman.
Ding Fan fixed his gaze on the two male cultivators; both were at the Early Nascent Soul Stage, though the slightly taller man seemed to have a deeper cultivation.
Judging by their appearance, Ding Fan thought they couldn't be very old. Having such cultivation definitely indicated they were disciples from some sect. After all, reaching the Nascent Soul Stage was considered outstanding among cultivators.
"Little girl, where else do you think you can run? Why not obediently undergo Dual Cultivation with us brothers? If you perform well, we might spare your lives!"
"Haha, my brother speaks the truth!"
The two male cultivators said indecently, exchanging a glance and sharing a knowing smile.
Suddenly, the taller one of the two accelerated, catching up with the Female cultivator, and, without an ounce of pity, kicked her in the back.
A tender scream of pain echoed from the woman's lips, her body going light as she fell to the ground, landing not far from Ding Fan. She spit a mouthful of blood, lying prone as if unable to rise again.
Ding Fan estimated that she was at most at the Mid Embryonic Breathing Stage, now severely injured and evidently unable to handle the two men.
The woman glanced at Ding Fan, who was not far from her, with a look of disappointment in her eyes. She was already disheartened. Having finally encountered someone, she hadn't expected them to be an ordinary person without any True Qi.
Because of the Magic Artifact concealing his cultivation, others could not see Ding Fan's cultivation level.
"I'm sorry... I didn't mean to involve you, a person destined to die."
The beautiful woman said sincerely as she looked at Ding Fan. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹·𝗳𝗶𝗿𝗲·𝗻𝗲𝘁
Hearing her words, Ding Fan couldn't help but have a better impression of the woman. Even in her hopeless situation, she kindly warned him.
But should he really flee from these two rookies?
As soon as the woman finished speaking, the two men caught up, noticing Ding Fan standing there seemingly unaffected. At first, they were momentarily stunned, but upon seeing Ding Fan's cultivation, they turned disdainful and scornful.
"Here's another nuisance..."
"Kill him and it's settled."
Hearing their words, a flash of icy light appeared in Ding Fan's eyes as he gazed intently at the two in front of him, his expression turning grim.
None of this mattered to him, yet they saw him and wanted to kill him without distinction...
Ding Fan's expression hardened. Did they think he was easy to bully?
The taller man shuddered upon seeing Ding Fan's frosty gaze, a chill of fear rising in his heart.
However, after reassessing Ding Fan, the taller man's initial fear vanished. He felt no True Qi from the other man's body — what was there to fear?
Angrily, he stepped towards Ding Fan, clenching his fist with a flicker of True Qi swirling around it.
"Kid, I'll send you to death!"
As the taller man was about to reach Ding Fan, the woman's eyes couldn't help but flash with regret and guilt as she looked at Ding Fan.
The tall man roared furiously, throwing a punch with all his might at Ding Fan.
A trace of ferocity flashed in Ding Fan's eyes, and his lips curled into a sneer. With a flick of his hand, a Wind Blade flew out!
The Wind Blade formed instantly in Ding Fan's hand, slicing towards the tall man's waist, vicious and precise.
With a dull thud, the tall man was cut in half, blood staining the surrounding earth.
Ding Fan, at the Late Nascent Soul Stage, nearing the peak, was nothing an ordinary person could provoke. Killing an Early Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator was as easy as eating or drinking.
Be aware that this was not Earth, and killing someone in the Cultivation World was all too typical.
At this moment, witnessing the tall man almost instantly severed into two halves, the other male cultivator was stunned and incredulous. The tall man's cultivation was significantly higher than his own, yet he was killed in an instant.
He was dumbfounded — how could this be?
On the Donglai Continent, a tall man with Early Nascent Soul Stage cultivation was certainly an outstanding cultivator.
What was the cultivation level of the person in front of him?
The shorter man gaped at Ding Fan in astonishment, all previous disdain vanished from his face.
