Chapter 724: Chapter 724

Lady Fang's determined sword strike was effortlessly parried by Ding Fan.

At that moment, Lady Fang was utterly dumbfounded. In her view, even if her sword strike wasn't able to kill Ding Fan, it was supposed to severely injure him. What she hadn't anticipated was that such a formidable sword strike would be nonchalantly blocked by Ding Fan.

In that strike, Lady Fang had infused her True Qi, harboring a resolve to kill. It should be noted that the strike she executed just now would not have been easily parried even by a Heavenly Level martial artist, let alone Ding Fan.

Just a few days ago, Ding Fan had still been an unremarkable young lad in her eyes. How had he become so formidable in the blink of an eye?

Lady Fang was, of course, unaware that on that day, Ding Fan had consumed Spirit Grass and ascended two grades in one day.

While Lady Fang was in shock, Ding Fan had already launched two consecutive Wind Blades at her.

Lady Fang dared not be careless; she hastily dodged to the side. As Lady Fang dodged, Ding Fan seized the moment to dash away once again.

At this time, Ding Fan had the Heavenly Flame in his possession. Staying tangled with Lady Fang here would risk exposing the treasure on him if discovered by others, making escape impossible.

Lady Fang was not willing to let Ding Fan go. Her eyes filled with coldness, she grasped her longsword and pursued him relentlessly.

Although Ding Fan was not slow, Lady Fang's speed was also considerable.

To Lady Fang's great surprise, after following him for a while, she completely lost sight of Ding Fan.

This meant that Lady Fang, a Heavenly Level Third Grade, had somehow lost track of Ding Fan.

Below this pit, although Telekinesis couldn't be used, Lady Fang's senses were extraordinary, and with her god-like cultivation, there was no reason she should have lost him.

At this moment, Lady Fang was indeed quite angry. If others knew that she, a mighty Heavenly Level martial artist, had lost track of a mere fledgling, she might as well have died.

Not giving up, Lady Fang continued searching for Ding Fan within the pit...

The main reason Lady Fang lost track of Ding Fan was his Spiritual Pet Duorou. Duorou helped Ding Fan hold his breath, and without Telekinesis, Lady Fang couldn't pick up on Ding Fan's aura and naturally couldn't keep up with him.

Ding Fan, hiding in a corner, made sure Lady Fang was really gone before he thought about coming out from there.

However, just then, several figures dashed over. From their appearance, it seemed that four or five martial artists were chasing after one.

Whoosh, whoosh, boom, boom...

A series of Wind Blades and strikes from Inner Strength directly blocked the escape route of the pursued.

Ding Fan took this opportunity to get a clear view.

The person being chased was a young man, roughly the same age as himself. However, what surprised Ding Fan was,

this young man had the same aura as Gusu Qingwen...

People from the Immortal Realm?!

Back at the exchange meeting in Donghe, Ding Fan had sensed the aura from the Immortal Realm, but he never managed to catch up to that person afterward.

Now, Ding Fan hadn't expected to encounter someone with the aura of the Immortal Realm here.

"Kid, you killed our sect leader; do you think you can escape today?" an elder with a goatee said menacingly as he held a sword, flanked by four martial artists.

"Despicable villains, you trapped me using a ploy; otherwise, even if all the people from your sect came, I could still kill them all!" the young man said indignantly.

"Audacious kid!" the elder with the goatee said, and immediately his longsword struck towards the young man.

The young man seemed somewhat sluggish, likely due to his injuries.

However, the young man still lifted his hand and effortlessly parried the attack from the goatee.

Although Ding Fan had no Divine Sense, from just that move, he could tell that the young man's cultivation was not low. In terms of cultivation, at least it had to be Heavenly Level Second Grade.

Ding Fan was comparing him to Hua Zhimo's cultivation. The young man's combat power appeared nearly equal to Hua Zhimo's, so Ding Fan deduced that this young man must be of Heavenly Level Second Grade.

The cultivation of the elder with the goatee was also strong, discussing it in terms of cultivation, this elder's was also at the Heavenly Level. The two exchanged blows for a time without a clear upper hand...

During their fight, the four individuals with the goatee held crossbows, targeting the interior of the arena.

Ding Fan frowned slightly upon seeing this. These people clearly intended to take the opportunity to shoot from a hidden position.

For martial artists to compete while others shoot hidden arrows from the side is utterly contemptible.

Just then, there was a gap in the ongoing fight in the arena, and someone had the crossbow arrow ready to shoot.

Thud... The arrow, making it impossible for the young man to dodge at that moment, struck directly through his shoulder.

When experts duel, often a minor detail can shift the whole situation, so the young man had no capacity to notice those shooting hidden arrows around him.

The moment the young man was struck by the arrow, the elder with the goatee struck him with his palm.

Although the young man had high cultivation, his combat experience was much less, and the strike made him spit blood.

The young man staggered back several steps before he managed to stabilize his form.

"For someone of Heavenly Level to resort to such lowly trickery during a duel... it is despicable!" the young man said with rage.

The elder with the goatee snorted. "Shame? After you're dead, you won't care about shame any longer."

The elder with the goatee then raised his hand to signal his followers. "Shoot him down with the crossbow arrows!"

"Yes!" the underlings responded in unison.

Just as the underlings were about to fire the crossbow arrows,

Boom… An explosive rune was thrown directly over. Suddenly, dust rose up.

After the explosive talisman detonated, a figure dashed over directly. The young man suddenly felt lighter and then heard the sound of the wind by his ears.

The young man glanced sidelong at the person who saved him.

When he saw clearly, he was quite astonished that the person saving him was indeed the man with the Immortal Talisman…

"Chase!" The goatee saw someone had saved the young man and hurriedly called out, then five figures directly chased in the direction of the escapee.

Ding Fan's movement technique was exceedingly fast, and although he was carrying someone, it didn't affect his speed at all.

It didn't take long for Ding Fan to completely shake off the pursuers behind him.

The main reason Ding Fan could shake them off was that within this pit, there were no Divine Sense and Telekinesis, so shaking them off wasn't difficult. Chapters fırst released on 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩•𝗳𝗂𝗋𝖾•𝕟𝕖𝕥

Ding Fan intended to find the exit and then directly leave through it.

However, when Ding Fan reached the exit, he was surprised to find that the exit had already been sealed with a Formation.

Escaping was proving to be very difficult.

Since he couldn't leave, Ding Fan turned around and led the young man in another direction within the pit.

Ding Fan now carried the Heavenly Flame on his person.

It was known that everyone who came to Haijiao Jungle was after the Nine Luminaries Fire. If others found out he had the Heavenly Flame, it would be the end for him.

Now, the only person who knew about the Heavenly Flame being with him was probably only Lady Fang.

At the time the stone wall collapsed, many people still explored the mouth of the wall, and combined with the chaotic fighting of martial artists, the scene was very chaotic. Additionally, Ding Fan's movement technique was impressive, so not many people realized the treasure was with Ding Fan.

However, Ding Fan was not afraid of Lady Fang spreading this information.

The reason he wasn't afraid was that Ding Fan knew Lady Fang wouldn't tell others about it.

With the Magical Treasure on his person, when the time came, Lady Fang could simply find him and seize the Heavenly Flame for herself. But if she spread the news about the treasure being on him, then everyone would compete for it, and that would sweep many opportunities from under Lady Fang's feet.

"Are you a person from the Immortal Realm?" Ding Fan, finding a corner, threw the young man to the ground and asked indifferently.

The young man was none other than Ruan Yuan.

Ruan Yuan didn't conceal it. "You have good eyesight."

"Why did you come to the Mortal Realm?" Ding Fan's tone was very even, and his expression was also very indifferent.

Ruan Yuan hadn't expected Ding Fan to be so indifferent toward him.

It was known that when people from the Mortal Realm met someone from the Immortal Realm, these mortals would definitely flatter and please them. Even if they didn't flatter, their faces would be filled with respect…

However, Ding Fan was neither flattering nor respectful at this moment…

In Ruan Yuan's view, Ding Fan was just chatting like with an ordinary friend.

"Why I came to the Mortal Realm is something you are not yet qualified to know," Ruan Yuan said.

Ding Fan looked at Ruan Yuan for a moment. "You have been monitoring me all this time, why?"

Ruan Yuan was taken aback; he didn't know how Ding Fan had realized that he had been monitoring him all this time.

Ruan Yuan, after all, was too inexperienced in the ways of the world. Actually, Ding Fan wasn't sure if the people from the Immortal Realm came to the Mortal Realm to monitor him, but at that moment, Ruan Yuan's expression had betrayed everything.

Ding Fan suddenly extended two fingers. A burst of Inner Strength shot out. The Inner Strength directly hit Ruan Yuan's Acupoints.

"What… what are you doing?" Ruan Yuan was stunned.

"If you don't suffer a bit, I think you won't honestly answer my questions," Ding Fan said calmly.

What?! Ruan Yuan was somewhat incredulous.

The other party, knowing his identity, still chose to torture him for answers…

People from the Immortal Realm were esteemed and elevated figures, yet Ding Fan, so lacking in awareness of danger, was actually tormenting a visitor from the Immortal Realm!

At this moment, a sudden pain surged through his body, coming so abruptly that Ruan Yuan felt as if he were about to split apart.

"Ah…" Despite his best efforts to control himself, eventually, he could no longer endure the pain, and Ruan Yuan began to cry out in agony.

"You… you dare treat a visitor from the Immortal Realm … Aren't you… aren't you afraid of dying…" Ruan Yuan gritted his teeth and said.

"The things I've done, once done, I do not fear. After regretting, I don't do them," Ding Fan declared firmly. "Speak up, what exactly are you doing here? Why are you tracking me?"

At this moment, Ruan Yuan clenched his teeth and tried not to speak.

However, Ding Fan wasn't in a hurry. The Acupoint Striking technique he used was exceedingly proficient. Not to mention Ruan Yuan, even himself during the Nascent Soul Stage couldn't have endured it.

"I… I'll talk…" Ruan Yuan finally couldn't hold out any longer and said.
