Ling Fan did not choose to suppress these three half-step Heavenly Emperors into the Yan Luo Hall.
Instead, he chose to refine and absorb the power of all three half-step Heavenly Emperors.
Although he now possessed the ability to refine half-step Heavenly Emperors into puppets.
However, he was about to enter the territory of the Tian Yi Sect, and then enter the abandoned outer continent of Qi State to search for more Dao Artifact Supreme Ancestral Dragon Seal fragments. Improving his own strength was the top priority.
Ling Fan coiled in the void.
The power within his body surged like tides, wave after wave, and this world immediately became violently turbulent…
If any strong individual were to pass by this place.
They would discover that the void within a radius of millions of miles seemed to be boiling, as if a terrifying and boundless temporal storm of the Heavenly Realm had been stirred up…
After an unknown amount of time.
When Ling Fan stood up again.
A powerful aura of the peak of the Sixth Stage Xuan Emperor emanated.
“Refining three half-step Heavenly Emperors only managed to push me to the peak of the Sixth Stage Xuan Emperor. I still don’t know how many half-step Heavenly Emperors I need to refine to reach the half-step Heavenly Emperor level…”
Ling Fan shook his head.
He tore through the void with a casual gesture.
And soon disappeared from his original spot.
…
Central Jizhou.
This was an incredibly prosperous land in the Heavenly Realm.
It was filled with vigorous life and endless Heavenly Realm spiritual energy everywhere.
With a casual grasp.
The dense spiritual energy condensed into mist.
It was hundreds of thousands of times more concentrated than in the remote corner of Hanshan Region when Ling Fan first returned to the Heavenly Realm.
This was the territory of the Tian Yi Sect, the most powerful kingly sect in Jizhou.
Magnificent cities rose from the vast land.
Ling Fan’s target.
Was one of them, Wangtian City.
Within this ancient city.
There was a teleportation array that could lead to the vicinity of the abandoned outer continent of Qi State.
Ling Fan pondered.
When entering the territory of the Tian Yi Sect.
He changed his appearance.
And became one of the three half-step Heavenly Emperors from the Gao family who were pursuing him.
His name was Gao Wuji.
He had devoured all of this person’s power, cultivation, and memories. Transforming into his likeness was incredibly easy, and almost no one could distinguish the truth from the falsehood.
Coupled with Ling Fan’s disguise techniques.
Even this person’s closest confidantes.
Or even Heavenly Emperor realm experts.
Would be unable to see through his disguise.
Didn’t Gao Gan of the Gao family get engaged to Yan Xi, the peerless celestial maiden of the Tian Yi Sect? Heh heh, impersonating someone from the Gao family was simply a perfect cover! Wonderful.
Ling Fan descended towards Wangtian City.
What a grand and magnificent city.
Even Heavenly Emperor experts could not see its end at a glance.
Ling Fan was very high-profile.
As soon as he entered Wangtian City, he released the aura of Gao Wuji, the half-step Heavenly Emperor.
This attracted countless shocked gazes.
After all, the number of Heavenly Emperor experts was extremely scarce.
They were truly great figures who were usually as elusive as dragons that showed their heads but not their tails.
Even half-step Heavenly Emperors were rarely seen.
Ling Fan’s high-profile presence made it difficult for others not to notice him.
“Qihong Tower?”
“Let’s go in and take a look.”
Ling Fan entered an antique building.
“Half-step Heavenly Emperor!”
As soon as he entered, a supervisor’s eyes widened, and he put on the most sincere, most humble, and most respectful smile and posture, bowing deeply to Ling Fan with his hands clasped.
“Your Excellency the Heavenly Emperor gracing us with your presence truly makes Qihong Tower shine! May I ask what your commands are? Please speak freely, and this humble one will do his utmost to satisfy you.”
Ling Fan appeared extremely arrogant.
He didn’t even look at the person.
He snorted and said, “What qualifications do you have to speak to me? Get lost, and go call your real manager out to see me.”
“Yes!”
The supervisor dared not disobey in the slightest. kuAiδugg
His smile was somewhat awkward.
Soon.
An expert exuding the powerful aura of a top-tier Xuan Emperor walked out quickly.
Ling Fan glanced at this person sideways.
The aura emanating from this person was no weaker than that of Emperor Qian Shan Xuan.
His strength could be said to be quite formidable.
“Forgive my lack of foresight in welcoming you, and please forgive me, Your Excellency the Heavenly Emperor! I am Xu Yu, an elder of Qihong Tower. May I ask how Your Excellency is called, and what you require?”
Although Ling Fan’s disguise as Gao Wuji was only a half-step Heavenly Emperor.
The businessmen of Qihong Tower deliberately called Ling Fan ‘Your Excellency the Heavenly Emperor.’ Most people would be flattered and lose their sense of direction.
Ling Fan would naturally not be blinded by their petty tricks.
He remained arrogant and said, “You do not need to know my identity for now. I will first purchase some information to see if Qihong Tower is qualified to do business with me.”
A hint of anger flashed in Elder Xu Yu’s eyes, but it was well concealed.
He still respectfully said, “Your Excellency the Heavenly Emperor, then you have come to the right place! It is not that we are boasting, but in Wangtian City, only Qihong Tower exists! If Qihong Tower does not have the information, others certainly will not know it.”
Ling Fan glanced at him.
“Are you just going to let me stand here like this?”
“Ah! Yes, yes, yes, it was my oversight. Please come in quickly!”
The elder of Qihong Tower quickly invited Ling Fan into an extremely elegant and meticulously decorated VIP room.
“How much do you know about the Subterranean Dragon Cave, one of the forbidden zones in northern Jizhou?”
Ling Fan did not ask about the abandoned continent of Qi State first.
Instead, he asked about this matter.
Elder Xu Yu of Qihong Tower looked at Ling Fan with some surprise and said, “Are you going to the Subterranean Dragon Cave, sir?”
“Why are you so meddlesome!” Ling Fan feigned displeasure.
“I dare not! I dare not!”
The elder of Qihong Tower said, “If you only need information about the Subterranean Dragon Cave, we can provide it free of charge.”
“You are so generous? Logically speaking, this kind of information should be the most expensive, right?”
Ling Fan looked at the elder of Qihong Tower with curiosity.
The elder smiled and said, “I dare not hide it from you. This information was previously of a very high level and very expensive, costing one million Heavenly Spirit Pills. But now, this information is no longer that valuable. For distinguished guests like you, it is naturally provided free of charge, and we dare not charge you a fee.”
Heavenly Spirit Pills were pills condensed from Heavenly Vein spiritual energy.
Only Heavenly Emperor realm experts could condense them.
One million Heavenly Spirit Pills was almost enough to buy a top-grade Imperial Weapon forged by a Seventh Stage Heavenly Emperor expert.
Just the information alone selling for one million Heavenly Spirit Pills was already an extremely exaggerated price, showing the value of the Subterranean Dragon Cave treasure.
“Why?” Ling Fan asked knowingly.
Elder Xu Yu of Qihong Tower naturally did not know Ling Fan’s background, let alone that Ling Fan was the biggest beneficiary of the Subterranean Dragon Cave!
He lowered his voice and said mysteriously, “It’s only for you, I would absolutely not reveal this secret to others… This Dragon Cave, it has been plundered and emptied!”
“Ah!”
Ling Fan feigned anger.
He slammed the table suddenly.
“Damn it, I’ve been searching for that Dragon Cave, and someone got there first! Who is it? Tell me immediately, I’ll go kill him now and snatch all the treasures back!”
“Please calm your anger, sir, and listen to me.”
The elder of Qihong Tower said, “Although there is no definitive evidence yet, it is rumored that this Subterranean Dragon Cave was taken by a disciple of the Qing Xuan Sect named Fan Lin. And also…”
“What!”
