Beast Taming: I can even raise gods and demons!

Chapter 297 Reaching the Ninth Rank in an Instant! (5704 words)

The sea, with its surging waves.

In the sky, enormous pterosaurs are flying and hunting for food.

Suddenly, something seemed to fly through the void.

One by one, the pterosaurs' heads broke off and fell to the ground!

Before the pterosaurs' heads could fall into the sea, the crystal cores on their heads flew up and quickly flew towards a certain location in the air.

A figure flashed in the air, and Chen Fan appeared.

Almost simultaneously, giant beasts emerged from the sea and swallowed the pterosaur heads and corpses that had fallen into the water.

Chen Fan floated in the air and silently glanced ahead.

Throughout the journey, he moved rapidly in the form of a "virtual soul".

The state of the illusory soul is like folding space, instantly reaching thousands of miles away.

Even someone like Li Mu, at the peak of the Saint Realm, couldn't match this speed!

With such speed combined with the ethereal defense of the Void Soul, there are few on Blue Star who can truly threaten Chen Fan.

This is also the reason why Li Muming dared to let Chen Fan come to Yang Kingdom even though he knew that the Nightmare Court was looking for Chen Fan.

Beyond this sea area lies Yang Kingdom...

Chen Fan remained silent for a moment, then opened the Beast Taming Space and went inside.

Inside the Beast Taming Space, there were only four people: the blind man, the lame man, and an orange cat fast asleep.

Xiao Bai, Gang Zi, and the others were all sent by Chen Fan to the Ancient God Realm to kill demons.

"What's wrong?"

The blind man and the others were slightly taken aback when they saw Chen Fan return to the Beast Taming Space.

Chen Fan said, "I'm just one step away from breaking through to the eighth rank."

"Anyway, a little more time won't make a difference..."

"Break through to the eighth rank and then enter the Yang Kingdom."

The blind man and the others all nodded.

Chen Fan immediately sat down cross-legged.

……

The sixth rank can be upgraded to the seventh rank, transcending life and death.

Those who rise from the seventh rank to the eighth rank enter the cycle of reincarnation.

There are countless methods of spiritual practice in this world, but without entering the cycle of reincarnation, they are all ultimately in vain.

The five-tiered Reincarnation Soul Altar has been successfully forged.

The final step is to fuse the five layers of the Reincarnation Soul Altar.

Chen Fan glanced at the system panel.

[System Energy]: 255985998

[Fusion Degree of Reincarnation Soul Altar]: 1%+

Last time, 3.1 million units of energy were used to activate the fifth layer of the Void God Body, which cost 6400 million units.

It's estimated that unlocking the sixth level of the Void God Body will cost 1.2 million.

Unfortunately, his cultivation level was too low and his Void Divine Power too weak, so Chen Fan could only use one-thousandth of the power of the first five levels of the Void Divine Body.

After pondering for a moment, Chen Fan immediately began to increase the "Fusion Degree of the Reincarnation Soul Altar".

2%;

10%;

30%;

60%;

90%;

The system's energy consumption is increasing.

99%!

100%!

The moment the "Reincarnation Soul Altar Fusion Rate" reached 100%, the five layers of Reincarnation Soul Altar within Chen Fan's body completely fused together!

Countless void characters appeared around Chen Fan and began to slowly rotate around him.

Upon seeing this, the blind man and the others immediately stared intently at the empty characters, desperately trying to record them.

"boom!"

A terrifying surge of energy swept outwards, and countless starlight points rained down from the sky.

Eighth Grade Realm!

The lame man clicked his tongue in amazement: "Less than five minutes, how did they cultivate like that...?"

"Snapped!"

The blind man slapped the lame man on the head: "Concentrate your mental energy, record the void characters!"

"What are you babbling about?"

The cripple glanced resentfully at the blind man, then immediately narrowed his eyes and stared at the void characters surrounding Chen Fan.

Each of these void characters contains unimaginable power of heaven and earth.

Chen Fan's Void Divine Power is too weak, so he can't use much of it right now.

Moreover, when he tried to draw these void characters, as soon as he wrote them down, a strange force in the world shattered the characters he drew.

However, these characters would be activated every time he broke through or opened a certain layer of the Void Divine Body.

Therefore, the blind men had no choice but to desperately try to record these empty characters using this method.

Remember as many as you can.

If you can record a few of them and condense them using your own spiritual power, it's equivalent to following Chen Fan in cultivating a divine body!

A little while later...

The void characters surrounding Chen Fan were completely absorbed back into his body.

He opened his eyes and saw that the blind man and the others were all drenched in sweat.

Clearly, even with their powerful mental strength, recording these void characters was still extremely difficult.

The lame man wiped his sweat and looked at the blind man and the others: "How many characters did you memorize?"

The mute's voice echoed in everyone's minds: "There are only two. I forgot the other characters as soon as I saw them. I concentrated all my mental energy in one place to imprint just one character."

The deaf man mumbled, "Two!"

The blind man said calmly, "Three."

The cripple was taken aback: "Old man, Xiao Fan is sitting right here. You're just embarrassed to show up in front of him, so you're bragging, right?"

The blind man sneered and said, "Although I gave my divine eye to the old emperor, I later cultivated a heavenly eye."

"I wrote down three empty characters. Is there a problem?"

"How many did you memorize?"

The lame man blushed and turned to look at Chen Fan: "Little Fan, you've successfully broken through to the eighth rank?"

"He only broke through from the peak of the seventh rank to the eighth rank, but his aura feels like he's breaking through from the ninth rank to the saint realm?"

Chen Fan smiled and was about to speak when the blind man tugged at the lame man's arm: "Don't change the subject. How many void characters did you memorize?"

"We'll have to make rubbings of these characters later, just like before."

"I have three this time, two are deaf, and two are mute. Adding them all together makes seven... How many did you actually remember?"

The lame man stammered, "One."

The blind man turned his head back.

Immediately, the three blind men said in unison, "Useless."

The lame man roared, "I'm not good at this kind of thing either!"

Chen Fan rolled his eyelids, then closed his eyes again.

[System Energy]: 200235998

[Host]: Chen Fan

[Level]: Eighth Grade, First Heaven

[Void Power]: 128 cards+

[Mental Strength]: 11259 Hz+

[Tiangong Completion Rate]: 0%+

[Void Contamination Level]: 8/100

There is still 2 million system energy remaining.

I wonder if I can reach the ninth rank in one go?

This trip to Yang Kingdom means leaving the protection of Li Mu and his group.

It will be very troublesome if you encounter a powerful expert above the Saint Realm in the Nightmare Court.

I should be able to escape.

But nobody wants to be chased and frantically attacked all day long.

Chen Fan immediately began using the system's energy to build the Heavenly Palace.

The cultivation of the eighth rank is based on the previous Soul Altar, which is used to build the Heavenly Palace.

Once the Heavenly Palace is successfully forged, the interplay of Yin and Yang will continue indefinitely.

Even an ordinary ninth-grade cultivator possesses extraordinary abilities, capable of overturning rivers and seas!

With his Void Divine Body, if he were to break through to the Ninth Rank, his strength would definitely increase exponentially!

10%;

30%;

70%...

Countless void characters spun continuously around Chen Fan's body.

The cripple and his companions nearly went insane.

They had witnessed Chen Fan's cultivation breakthrough before.

But he just broke through to the eighth rank, and now he's starting to break through to the second, third, and fourth levels of the eighth rank. Is he really human?

Wrong...

Chen Fan is no longer human.

He had already condensed his divine body long ago.

In fact, he had already killed a god in that fifth forbidden zone!

The problem is that the four blind men had just finished recording those void characters and were almost exhausted of their mental energy.

Again...

It's really dying!

85%...

After reaching 85%, Chen Fan stopped.

It used up 1.2 million units of system energy...

After this final 15% increase, the remaining system energy is estimated to be quite low.

It took me more than a month to save up to this number.

Chen Fan gritted his teeth...

"continue!"

The instant the "Heavenly Palace Completion" reached 100%, a Heavenly Palace materialized in Chen Fan's starry sea.

Once the Heavenly Palace is successfully forged, one embarks on the path to heaven, reaching the ninth rank.

Therefore, the Ninth Rank Realm is also known as the "Heavenly Realm"!

[System Energy]: 35766998

[Host]: Chen Fan

[Level]: Ninth Rank, First Heaven

[Void Power]: 399 cards+

[Mental Strength]: 42398 Hz+

[Tianhe]: 0 entries

[Void Contamination Level]: 8/100

The system energy is down to 3576W...

However, both the Void Divine Power and the Spiritual Power have increased several times over!

After unlocking the first five levels of the Void Divine Body, the increase in Void Divine Power far surpassed that before, as the cultivation level improved!

Previously, simply using system energy to enhance Void Divine Power required 2000 million system energy points to enhance just 1 card of Void Divine Power!

What a huge loss...

If I had known that the later advancement in cultivation level would increase so much Void Divine Power, I should have used the system energy to improve my cultivation level first.

After improving one's cultivation level, there will still be plenty of energy available. It's not too late to focus on improving one's Void Divine Power separately!

Chen Fan felt a pang of regret.

At this moment, the cripple and the others in the Beast Taming Space were all petrified.

They were probably the people who knew Chen Fan best.

Even so, watching Chen Fan's cultivation level rise rapidly from the eighth rank to the ninth rank still left them incredibly shocked.

For Chen Fan, cultivation felt just like eating...

No, this is even simpler than eating!

It takes quite a while to finish a bowl of noodles!

……

Chen Fan opened his eyes and silently sensed his own power.

After his cultivation level and Void Divine Power increased significantly, he was able to invoke more Void Characters.

just now……

It can now call thirty-one null characters!

Compared to the power of the void, these void characters felt even more bizarre and powerful.

Void characters can summon terrifying, unseen powers from heaven and earth!

Chen Fan felt a surge of pride.

Sudden……

Awakened by the noise of Chen Fan's breakthrough, the orange cat darted over and grabbed Chen Fan's leg: "Chen Fan, Chen Fan, this time you must help me find the traitor in the Heavenly Demon Sect who framed me!"

Chen Fan: "..."

Orange cat: "With your current power, even a Saint Realm expert couldn't do anything to you!"

"That traitor is no match for you!"

Chen Fan silently watched the orange cat without saying a word.

The orange cat continued, "The headquarters of the Heavenly Demon Sect is located in Yang Kingdom."

"You'll go there as the new leader, and first take my inheritance... ptooey! Take over the Heavenly Demon Sect's assets!"

"At that time, that traitor will definitely cause trouble!"

"While you're helping Yang Kingdom purify the demons, you can also take care of the Heavenly Demon Sect matter. It won't take much time!"

Chen Fan said helplessly, "I'll give it a try."

"But I always felt that it wasn't that simple."

"You've lived for hundreds of years, and you've still been ambushed and can't figure out who did it... How easy is it to find such a cunning old fox?"

The orange cat blinked and said, "You can capture all the experts of the Heavenly Demon Sect above the ninth rank, and then have Zifang Zhenyi search their souls!"

"Shinichi Fujito needs your help now, so he certainly won't refuse."

Chen Fan glanced at the orange cat and walked out of the beast taming space.

The orange cat tried to speak, but the blind man grabbed its tail and dragged it back.

……

As soon as they left the Beast Taming Space.

Chen Fan's body quickly became ethereal, and he entered the state of "ethereal soul" again.

"Virtual Soul" is like a person becoming ethereal, transforming into divine consciousness, and spreading out in all directions.

In no time, Chen Fan was transported to the outside of a huge island.

This must be Yang Kingdom... I think.

Chen Fan shrunk his illusory soul, condensing it into a thin thread, and it fell to the ground.

Outside the towering main city gate, there was a lot of noise.

There are people protesting.

Someone is crying.

It was in complete chaos.

"Chirping and chattering inside the house, suffocating the butterflies..."

Ok.

Chen Fan nodded secretly.

It is indeed the Yang Kingdom.

Although I only understood the last sentence of the language, it felt very familiar.

Judging from the guards at the city gate, it seems that the main city of Yang Kingdom has been completely sealed off.

Many people in the main city wanted to leave, but the army directly suppressed them.

These people outside the city gate were clearly wealthy and powerful.

Damn it...

Ordinary people were not allowed to enter or leave, but the wealthy and powerful left the main city immediately, preparing to leave Yang Kingdom.

The demonization was mistaken for a virus, and Yang Kingdom was indeed in complete chaos.

Chen Fan glanced at the square at the city gate.

On the plaza, flying beasts exuding powerful auras were ready to take off.

The backs of those flying beasts were filled with people.

The crying did not come from these people, but from inside the city gates.

Those who had already boarded their flying beasts were all beaming with joy.

Chen Fan snorted and activated "Whispers of the Demon King," instantly suppressing all the beasts outside the main city!

Those beasts that were ready to take off immediately lay prostrate on the ground, remaining motionless no matter how much their masters urged them!

The people outside the main city panicked instantly and started shouting incoherently.

Chen Fan expanded the "virtual soul" and directly merged it into the main city.

Almost the instant he entered the main city...

"Who are you?"

A powerful and unpredictable spiritual force swept over!

Shinichi Wisteria!

The only peak Saint Realm expert in Yang Kingdom!

A being comparable to Li Mu!

Chen Fan was not surprised that Shito Shinichi sensed him immediately.

He said coldly, "It's me, Chen Fan."

"What!" Zifang Zhenyi was taken aback.

Twenty minutes ago, he spoke with Li Mu, who said he would send Chen Fan over.

How come Chen Fan has arrived in Yangguo from Shanghai in just twenty minutes?

Zifang Zhenyi: "Which other Saint Realm experts from the Tang Kingdom have come? Why didn't I sense them?"

He thought that the sacred realm of the Tang Kingdom had sent Chen Fan here.

Only those in the mid-to-late stages of the Saint Realm could possibly transport Chen Fan from the Demon Capital to the Yang Kingdom in such a short time!

"Just me."

Chen Fan said calmly, "Let's get down to business. If you want me to help your Yang Kingdom resolve the demonization issue, you'd better bring all these people outside the main city back right now!"

"Not a single one can leave!"

While still in shock, Shito Shinichi paused slightly, saying, "These people are completely normal. Even if they go to Tang, they won't pose a threat to Tang. And their staying won't help either."

"Hmph!" Chen Fan snorted and said, "Of course I know there's nothing unusual about them."

"I'm just upset that they used their power to leave."

"Why are ordinary people not allowed to leave, while they can swagger away?"

Shinichi Fujito was silent for a moment before saying, "Most of them... are family members of high-ranking officials in Yang Kingdom..."

"Stop talking nonsense!" Chen Fan said, "Get them back right now!"

"Otherwise, don't expect me to do anything for your Yang Kingdom!"

Shinichi Fujito: "Are you threatening me?"

Chen Fan laughed: "Not bad!"

Shinichi Fujito fell silent.

After a while...

Suddenly, figures fell from the main city wall.

One of the men, dressed in armor, floated in the air, waved his hand, and rattled off a string of words.

In an instant, the faces of everyone in the square outside the city gate turned deathly pale!

Then, those who had fallen from the city wall scattered and began to drive the crowd in the square back to the main city!

As soon as these people and their beasts entered the main city, the main city gates slammed shut with a loud rumble!

Shinichi Fujiwara's voice echoed in Chen Fan's mind: "Is that alright?"

"I have given the order: from this moment forward, Yang Kingdom will only accept foreign investment and will not allow any foreign investment!"

"Hmm," Chen Fan said calmly, "You're not in this main city?"

Shinichi said, "I am in another main city... It's 700 li to the northwest from your current main city. Come here."

With a thought, Chen Fan instantly teleported to the main city where Zifang Zhenyi was located, as if folding space.

Inside the main city, Shinichi Wisteria: "..."

Chen Fan sensed the aura of Zifeng Zhenyi, and with a teleportation, entered the city lord's mansion in the main city.

Inside the underground main hall of the city lord's mansion, Shito Shinichi stood with his hands behind his back, silently gazing ahead.

Behind him, a group of powerful figures from the Yang Kingdom held their breath.

In front of them, fifteen powerful figures, bound and sealed by chains, were emanating dense demonic energy. Their eyes were bloodshot, and they roared like demons.

These people are all powerful individuals who inexplicably turned into demons.

One of them was even at the peak of the fifth level of the ninth rank!

Sudden……

The void beside Shinichi Wisteria slightly distorted, and a figure appeared.

"brush!"

Almost the instant he appeared, swords, spears, and halberds attacked him fiercely!

"Step back!"

With a flick of his sleeve, Shiten Shinichi gently shook his robe.

All the powerful warriors' weapons flew out at the same time.

Shinichi Zifang tilted his head slightly and looked at Chen Fan.

Chen Fan now looks like Kimura Ryofu.

Whether it's changing appearance or controlling muscles, these are very simple things for experts of the seventh rank or above.

Shinichi Zifang was not at all surprised by Chen Fan's illusion.

To his surprise...

This kid arrived way too fast!

When did such a young Saint Realm expert emerge in the Tang Kingdom?

But the aura emanating from Chen Fan was very strange, completely unlike that of a Saint Realm cultivator.

"Take a look..."

Zifang Zhenyi said in the Tang language, "They are the first batch of demonized powerhouses in Yang Kingdom, and also the strongest ones discovered so far."

"If my mental energy hadn't been constantly covering the main cities, the consequences of their disturbance would have been unimaginable!"

The group of powerful Yang Kingdom warriors behind them were immediately taken aback.

Is this stranger from the Tang Dynasty?

The Tang Kingdom only sent this young man?

This is absolutely outrageous!

However, even Shinichi Fujito treated him with great courtesy...

Chen Fan glanced at Shinichi Zifang.

This guy is also his father's apprentice.

But Shinichi Fujito looked much older than Li Mu and Zhang Jiang.

Chen Fan tilted his head slightly towards Shinichi Shidou: "Have the others leave."

Shinichi Wisteria waved his hand gently.

A group of powerful Yang Kingdom warriors behind them vanished simultaneously.

"I have no choice but to suppress them..."

Shinichi Fujito said worriedly, "But I can't solve their demonization problem."

"Moreover, those who are stained with their blood will also be corrupted by demons."

Chen Fan strode forward and walked up to one of the Yang Kingdom experts who was chained up.

The man's face was contorted, his eyes were bloodshot, and his body was filled with overwhelming demonic energy!

"What's going on...?"

Chen Fan frowned, wondering to himself, "Why do I have this inexplicable feeling of familiarity?"

Chen Fan had seen many demons.

Chen Fan had seen many Void Demons.

But this inexplicable feeling of familiarity was something Chen Fan had never experienced before.

This feeling... is like being connected by blood!

What exactly is this...?

Chen Fan glanced at the group of demonized Yang Kingdom experts.

These people have all turned into demons.

Under Chen Fan's gaze, their attribute panels had already appeared.

The word "Demon" on the attribute panel is shocking!

Back when they were still in Eastsea City, the Nightmare Court used some kind of secret technique to corrupt some monsters.

But the monster's attribute panel that Chen Fan saw at that time stated that it was corrupted by demonic power and had not completely transformed into a demon.

But the group of powerful Yang Kingdom warriors before them were truly demons!

Chen Fan remained silent for a moment before walking up to the ninth-grade, fifth-level expert.

Then he raised his right hand.

"Purify!"
