Longevity Thunder Ancestor

Chapter 1009 Strange Phenomena of the Mingyuan Heavenly Pool
Ning Fa had already returned to a secret room in Zhenyou City.

He set up numerous restrictions, then took out more than ten pill bottles in one go and stuffed all the pills inside into his mouth.

The potent medicinal power erupted within him, and his horrific external injuries began to show signs of relief.

Ning Fa also closed his eyes and sat cross-legged, refining the medicinal power to recover from his injuries.

Although his Divine Firmament Dharma Form is not far from the first stage of transformation, it is still some distance away.

Although he has the Five Elements Thunder Body to enhance him and can forcibly activate it, it also has serious side effects.

Just like him now, his magical power, physical body, and soul are all greatly depleted.

The physical body, in particular, suffered severe damage.

If Ningfa continues to forcefully use this technique, there is even a possibility that his physical body will collapse.

However, this battle resulted in the killing of five enemy high-level cultivators, severe injury to one, and the acquisition of the Ancestral Sea Heart, thus saving Zhenyou City.

Therefore, this adventure in which he unleashed the first transformation of the Divine Firmament Dharma Form can be considered a great success.

However, for a period of time, he could no longer easily use the Divine Efficacy Dharma Form, especially at the First Transformation Realm.

Three months later.

Ning Fa slowly opened his eyes. He saw that the terrible wounds on his body had healed. Although his face was still slightly pale, it was much better than before.

However, Ning Fa had not yet recovered to his peak condition, but he was worried about the current battle situation and did not want to continue to recuperate.

Ningfa did not leave the meditation room immediately, but instead communicated with the Crossing Source Heavenly Book in his sea of ​​consciousness through mental communication.

Soon, a smile appeared on his face.

He gained a great deal from this battle.

Three powerful sea creature cultivators died at his hands, providing a total of 1,200 Tier 3 Origin Points, which was a huge sum of money.

But what surprised Ningfa the most was the heart of the ancestral sea.

It provides a total of five fourth-order source points.

Although it cannot compare to the mysterious white fragment obtained from the Nine Realms Suppressing Tower in Tianli, it is still extremely amazing.

It should be noted that the Heavenly Book only requires a little bit of fourth-order source points to trace a low-grade spirit stone to a top-grade spirit stone.

This surprised Ning Fa, but also filled him with even greater regret.

Because the Abyss Sea had been activated for some time, it had obviously consumed a lot of the Ancestral Sea Heart's energy.

If it were the complete Ancestral Sea Heart, it could probably provide the Heavenly Book with double-digit numbers of fourth-order source points.

Ning Fa couldn't help but sigh inwardly, it seemed that the Heavenly Book truly favored the sea race.

Whether it's the Nascent Soul of the Sea Clan or a wondrous object like the Heart of the Ancestral Sea, both have yielded such high Origin Points.

This gave Ningfa an impulse to go to the sea tribe and plunder them.

But this is just something to think about for now, since there must be some Nascent Soul level monsters among the sea creatures, and probably more than just one or two.

Thinking of this, Ning Fa's heart tightened again.

The threat posed by Nascent Soul cultivators is no longer a mirage, but a very real problem.

After all, he has displayed such great strength this time, the sea race cannot be without a response. It is not impossible that they would send a Nascent Soul cultivator.

Thinking of this, Ning Fa's eyes flickered slightly, and a white bead the size of a thumb appeared in the palm of his right hand.

This is the Immortal Extinction Pearl obtained from Pei Nanshu. It can be traced back to the Great Immortal Extinction Pearl, and what is needed is exactly five fourth-order source points.

Ning Fa's gaze sharpened; he had already made up his mind.

A flash of white light appeared in front of him, and the Heavenly Book material materialized.

A ball of white light enveloped the Immortal-Slaying Pearl in his hand, which quickly transformed into another white sphere that was a size larger.

Among them, mysterious runes on the surface flickered incessantly, faintly emanating a terrifying aura of world-destroying power.

Ning Fa stared at it with a strange light in his eyes for a while, then carefully placed it into a brocade box.

This will be his other trump card against Nascent Soul cultivators, besides the Chaos Divine Lightning.

Ning Fa breathed a sigh of relief, feeling much more at ease.

Moreover, in addition to providing five fourth-tier source points, that Ancestral Sea Heart also provides another five hundred third-tier source points.

In total, Ningfa gained 1,700 Tier 3 Source Points in this battle, which, combined with the original 830 points, brings his total to 2,530 points.

Ningfa had never been so wealthy before; it made him want to burst out laughing.

This huge sum of money was enough for him to trace back to countless precious fourth-order spirit ores.

Thinking of this, Ning Fa flipped his right hand and took out another peculiar triangular communication talisman.

After a brief exchange, Ningfa put the talisman away.

He was just in contact with Xiaoyu.

Before he went into seclusion, he instructed Xiaoyu not to worry about the war on the front lines, but to focus on collecting all kinds of spirit ores for him in the rear.

Xiaoyu now has a large quantity of spirit ores of various attributes. Ningfa told her to return quickly so he could test them out and see what he urgently needed.

If you're lucky, you might be able to gather enough spiritual materials for a few remaining components of the Divine Thunder Armor.

In addition, after comprehending the complete refining method of the Heavenly Flame Candle, a spiritual treasure that connects to the heavens, Liu Ying also provided the upgrade method for the Five Flame Lamp, which also requires some extremely precious fire-attribute spiritual ores.

If we could trace the origins of these things, that would be ideal.

A smile appeared in Ning Fa's eyes as he walked out of the secret chamber. In the outer hall, a beautiful female Taoist priest, dressed in a white dress, sat on a chair holding an ancient scroll. She glanced towards the secret chamber from time to time, her eyes filled with worry. It was Sang Wen.

Just then, a flash of lightning appeared, and a figure suddenly appeared. Ning Fa, dressed in a silver robe, was looking at her with a smile.

Sang Wen's eyes immediately lit up with joy as he stood up and asked, "You're finally out. How are your injuries?"

Ning Fa looked at her with a half-smile: "What, are you worried about me?"

Upon hearing this, Sang Wen immediately frowned slightly and rolled her eyes lightly.

"Seeing that you can still crack jokes, it seems you're alright."

Ning Fa smiled immediately, then asked seriously, "What's the situation now?"

Sang Wen immediately opened her mouth slightly and began to speak.

After listening, Ningfa nodded; the situation was not bad.

After the last battle, the enemy suffered heavy losses in combat power at the Grand Master level.

Furthermore, they were unaware that Ning Fa experienced such severe side effects after unleashing the first transformation of the Divine Firmament Dharma Form.

Therefore, during the time Ningfa was in seclusion to heal his wounds, the enemy did not attack again, and Cangyuan also had a rare chance to catch its breath.

After all, the last battle was also extremely fierce, with casualties far exceeding those of the previous one.

Ningfa then inquired about the situation of some of his close relatives, and fortunately, none of them were seriously injured.

"You've come at the right time. The situation has changed somewhat, and the Pavilion Master is looking for you."

At this moment, Sang Wen solemnly spoke.

Ning Fa nodded, took a step, and disappeared from the room, while a complex look appeared in Sang Wen's eyes.

Not long after, Ningfa met the hermit Xuyuan in another pavilion.

"Fellow Daoist Ning, it's wonderful that you're alright."

Master Xuyuan looked Ningfa up and down, then smiled with satisfaction.

Ning Fa looked at Xu Yuan Jushi and frowned.

At this moment, Master Xuyuan's aura was noticeably weaker than before, and his face was covered with many wrinkles, making him look much older.

Noticing Ning Fa's gaze, Layman Xuyuan smiled and waved his hand.
"Fellow Daoist Ning, there's no need to worry too much. I only lost a few decades of my lifespan. I have to thank you for scaring them all away, otherwise I would have lost much more than just a few decades of my lifespan."

Ning Fa thought for a moment, then flipped his right hand and took out a blue pill bottle.

"Here is a Life Essence Pill, which should have some effect on you, fellow Daoist."

This Life Essence Pill was obtained by Ning Fa from Bai Dan Zhenjun when he killed him.

The Hundred Pill True Lord originally used this pill to ask Xuanweizi to step in and stop Ningfa.

However, faced with Ning Fa's threat, Xuan Weizi ultimately did not dare to intervene, and the Life Essence Pill was returned to Bai Dan Zhenjun, thus ending up in Ning Fa's hands.

Xu Yuan Jushi looked at the pill, but shook his head with a smile.

"I have already taken this pill once, and it has no effect on me anymore. Fellow Daoist Ning, you should take it yourself."

Fellow Daoist Ning, there's no need to worry too much. I can hold on for at least another hundred years.

Ning Fa looked regretful and asked, "Old friend Xu Yuan, I heard you were looking for me. Has something happened?"

Master Xuyuan's expression turned serious as he asked, "Fellow Daoist Ning, do you know why some powerful cultivators on the enemy side, including the Moon Lord of Tianli, have suddenly disappeared?"

Upon hearing this, Ning Fa's eyes flashed, and he asked, "Is it because of the Mingyuan Heavenly Pool?"

Master Xuyuan nodded: "That's right, exactly."

We had only suspicions before, but now we can basically confirm it.

Because our celestial monitoring instrument has recently detected unusual spiritual energy fluctuations in the Yunhuang Great Swamp.

That direction was exactly where the patriarch had discovered the Abyss Heavenly Pool. The unusual fluctuations in spiritual energy were very likely caused by those vanished enemy cultivators.

After all, judging by the timeline, it's almost time for the Abyss Heavenly Pool to open as predicted by the Ancestor. Tian Li and the others have likely discovered some method that allows the Heavenly Pool to open a little earlier.

Ning Fa's eyes flashed.

He had initially kept his distance from the Mingyuan Heavenly Pool, but now he had a compelling reason to go.

He wanted to obtain the Soul-Deriving Divine Spring within it, for his own sake and for Zhu Lingyun's, in order to fight against that terrifying ancient immortal.

So when he heard that the Abyss Heavenly Pool was about to open, his heart was immediately stirred.

At this moment, the Venerable Master Xuyuan said solemnly, "There is a high probability that there is a chance to become a Nascent Soul cultivator in the Mingyuan Heavenly Pool. Although we Cangyuan are weak, we cannot give up this opportunity."

Putting everything else aside, if Tianli were to obtain this opportunity and a Nascent Soul cultivator were to emerge, it would be a catastrophic disaster for Cangyuan. However…

At this point, Master Xuyuan hesitated, seemingly very conflicted.

Ning Fa quickly realized why Layman Xu Yuan was so conflicted.

Because right now, he's probably the only Cangyuan cultivator suitable to go to the Mingyuan Heavenly Pool to compete for opportunities.

But now, he is like a pillar of strength for Cang Yuan.

If something were to happen to him in this Abyss Heavenly Pool, it would be a huge blow to Cang Yuan as well, and he might not be able to hold on for long.

However, if Cang Yuan doesn't seize the opportunities within, he may very well face another slow death.

That's why Master Xuyuan was so conflicted.
