Wu Laoba took the news he had just learned and angrily expressed his loyalty to Ning Fan. Ning Fan did not say a word about it. He glanced at it and put the information away. He continued to sit cross-legged and meditate, closing his eyes to rest.

Kill Bailou, the first disciple of Emperor Rudra, the person who stopped him from saving people in the slave market that day...

If before meeting the Slaughter Emperor, Ning Fan had only cultivated the seal, and might have been wary of Killing Bailou. Now that he had the additional prize of Slaying Emperor, he did not take Killing Bailou into his eyes.

If this person really makes trouble for him in the second round of seizing the mausoleum, he will naturally not be lenient.

Instead of caring about this matter, it would be better to concentrate on recovering the energy that was lost in the blood martial arts arena. He really doesn't have enough time, and there really is no room for such trivial matters.

Even some major events were delayed due to conflicts with participating in the Blood Martial Arena.

Ning Fan dismissed the nagging Wu Laoba, and when he was alone, he took out a famous card whose aura had faded, and smiled bitterly.

Invitation from the Ancient Buddhist Society…

This was an invitation from Emperor Tiandu. The place where the ancient Buddhist meeting was held seemed to be somewhere in the Liuli City. The time of the meeting happened to be three days before the second round, which conflicted with the time of the blood martial arts arena.

Ning Fan originally had some interest in the Ancient Buddhist Association, but for the sake of the innate soul-repairing elixir, he made a choice and gave up participating in the Ancient Buddhist Association...

"That's all, a gathering of Buddhist cultivators, without me as an ancient demon, is not a big deal. It's a pity that we couldn't take the opportunity to find out the deeper meaning of Emperor Tiandu..."

Ning Fan sighed slightly, put away the name card, and continued to close his eyes and regulate his breathing.

This was the last night before the battle to seize the tomb began. His mind still needed a little time to recover, so he had to tighten his breath control.

The night was getting deeper and deeper, and the night wind was blowing outside the door. I don't know how long it had passed, but suddenly there was a sound of laughter.

The laughter was so sudden that Ning Fan suddenly opened his eyes and became alert.

Immortal Emperor! Outside his door, an Immortal Emperor arrived! It was not the three great emperors Rutuo, Bone Spirit, and Baihua he had seen before, but he didn’t know which emperor was coming!

"I came to Tiandu uninvited, but I'm a bad guest. Don't you invite me in?" The voice echoed for nine days, deafening like thunder, but the strange thing is that only Ning Fan could hear this voice.

It didn't shock anyone sleeping nearby at all.

Ning Fan's heart suddenly shuddered, he didn't know that if he didn't go to the Ancient Buddha Society to make an appointment with the Emperor of Heaven, then the Emperor of Heaven would come to visit him.

As soon as his mind changed, he stopped adjusting his breath, stood up and walked out of the room to greet him.

"Emperor, please come in!"

"That's why I'm bothering you!"

Emperor Tiandu had a rigid face and demeanor, but he was very polite to Ning Fan. He laughed and strode into the room.

Ning Fan had already stood up and walked to the door. He welcomed Emperor Tiandu into the outer room, and then the host and guest sat down separately.

Emperor Tiandu had a smile on his face, and there was no sign of any anger. However, Ning Fan thought for a while and asked, "Is the emperor coming here late at night to blame this junior for missing the ancient Buddhist meeting?"

"Blame it? Of course not. Although I have invited you to attend the Ancient Buddhist Association, whether or not you want to participate is up to your own volition. It is absolutely impossible for me to force you. It's a pity that if you don't come, you won't be able to taste the fruits of the Ancient Buddhist Association.

Opportunity, pity, pity..."

Although he said it was a pity, there was no regret at all in Emperor Tiandou's eyes, but a bright light erupted from his eyes.

This was his first meeting with Ning Fan! Before meeting him, he knew that although Ning Fan's enlightenment was high, it could only see perfection, but now, he was shocked!

The Ning Fan in front of him only saw perfection. Instead, the first stroke of reincarnation had been drawn in his body, and he actually had his own aura of reincarnation!

Originally, I only valued Ning Fan three-thirds of the time, but now I attach great importance to him!

"Since it's not to blame, I don't know why the emperor came to visit late at night? Could it be that he has something to discuss..." Ning Fan asked.

Seeing that Ning Fan had guessed the purpose of his visit, Emperor Tiandu did not hide it and said cheerfully, "Yes, I invited you to attend the ancient Buddhist meeting because I have something to ask for. Since your friend won't go, I have no choice but to come uninvited."

Already."

"I wonder what the Emperor has to ask of you? The younger generation is so weak that I may not be able to help the seniors."

"Haha, if you are a person who has drawn the first stroke of reincarnation, you still can't help me. I'm afraid that in this era of law-ending, not many people can help me! Although I am not qualified enough, little friend, I have never been able to do this, but

I’m confident that I won’t be wrong! I wonder when my little friend drew the first stroke of reincarnation and what the process was like. Can you explain it to me?”

Emperor Tiandu looked like he was asking for advice, but Ning Fan felt trembling in his heart.

What does the first stroke of reincarnation mean? Does it refer to his first realization of reincarnation? Could it be that what Emperor Tiandu wants is related to this...

"The junior would like to ask the senior first what is the first stroke of reincarnation. The junior doesn't quite understand what the senior said."

"It seems that you don't want to tell me about the process of understanding reincarnation. That's all. This matter probably involves your secrets, so I don't care if I don't ask..." Emperor Tiandu only said that Ning Fan was looking for excuses. He was subconsciously unhappy, but after a while

When he thought that he had something to ask for, he relaxed his eyebrows again, as if he didn't care.

Originally there was a tendency to have a pleasant conversation, but now the atmosphere was a bit awkward.

Ning Fan didn't show it on his face, but he was a little speechless in his heart. The Emperor Tiandu's tolerance seemed not as great as he showed.

I originally wanted to explain casually that I didn't want to hide anything, but that I really didn't understand what Emperor Tiandu meant, but now I don't bother to explain.

"Senior, you might as well tell me first, what do you want to ask from me, junior?"

"Haha, I forgot about business. In my early years, I went to Sanyan Continent to collect medicine. I accidentally entered a secret place and got a treasure. I would like to ask my friends to appreciate it..."

After Emperor Tiandu set up many barriers around it, he carefully took out an object.

It was an old scabbard stored in a jade box. The scabbard was stained with blood, but it was blood stained countless years ago.

It is a very ancient artifact, but the sword intention on the scabbard has never been extinguished from ancient times to this day. It still gives people a sense of awe and fear when facing you. The more advanced you are in cultivation, the more frightened you feel when facing this scabbard!

"What do you think of this scabbard, little friend..." Emperor Tiandou handed the scabbard to Ning Fan.

Ning Fan's face was expressionless, but he had an indescribable feeling in his heart.

This scabbard looks familiar... No, it's not that the scabbard looks familiar, it's the sword intent on the scabbard that looks familiar...

It has the same sword intent as the scabbard he used to severely injure Emperor Nirvana at the beginning of his cultivation!

It is the sword intention left by the woman known as the Sword Ancestor...

Ning Fan suddenly felt as if time and space were separated, as if he had returned to his youth, and returned to his insignificant self standing in front of the giant Emperor Nirvana.

Even though he was small, he still blocked the sword and looked at the Nirvana Emperor, with that small body!

"Back then, I only saw the outside of the scabbard, but not the inside. The sword energy in this scabbard was enough to deliver a void-shattering blow, but its sword intention... I didn't expect it to be so terrifying!"

Back then, Ning Fan was unable to see how terrifying this sword intent was.

Now, he can already experience it personally.

The sword intention of the Sword Ancestor is eternal. That sword intention has experienced perfection and then returned to its original nature, containing the true third step of the sword rules!

Back then, he couldn't see this, but now, he can see the traces of returning to nature!

With a few clicks, a wisp of purple gold smoke blew lightly toward the scabbard, and then... was easily cut off by the sword rules on the scabbard!

"Hiss! My little friend not only drew the first stroke of reincarnation, but he was also able to activate a trace of the power of reincarnation to be externalized!" Emperor Tiandu's eyes were shocked and he looked at Ning Fan in disbelief.

He also confirmed one thing from the destruction of Ning Fan's purple gold...

Sure enough, sure enough! This scabbard contains the third step of perfect swordsmanship!

It's a pity that he can't see through the mystery of the sword. He can only guess, but can't imitate, learn, or understand...

But Ning Fan can do it! Haha, this external cultivation is really useful, hahahaha!

Emperor Tiandou almost wanted to laugh wildly in his heart, but on the outside he acted very calmly. He took back the scabbard in Ning Fan's hand and put it away like a treasure, and then discussed with Ning Fan,

"How! How about the swordsmanship contained in this scabbard!"

"Incomparably more powerful, unparalleled in ancient and modern times!" Ning Fan sincerely admired. He could see that the swordsmanship of this sword ancestor was the third step to perfect the swordsmanship, but he could not see the specific changes in the rules of the sword. The changes were too complicated.

.

"My little friend, do you want to learn this unparalleled sword technique? If you succeed, I won't be able to step into the legendary... saint realm with this sword technique!" Emperor Tiandu said with temptation.

"This matter is too difficult, leaving behind such a senior swordsman. The rules of the sword are ever-changing. A mere scabbard has gone through endless years, and it is impossible to fully display all the changes in the rules. With only one scabbard, I can learn it all my life.

It won't work." Ning Fan shook his head.

"If there were such scabbards, there would be tens of thousands of them! If I could even find the bones of the senior who left the sword intention behind, I would be able to find it for you! My little friends, are you interested in following me to learn this useless thing?

Learn the way of swordsmanship! I only have one request. If you have some enlightenment, you can’t keep it secret. You need to engrave a copy of the sword enlightenment and give it to me!”

Engraving! Haha, I don’t need any engraving! When you realize the way of swordsmanship, wouldn’t it be easier for me to kill you and search for your soul?

He’s just a foreign cultivator, so killing him is fine!

Emperor Tiandou was already making plans in his heart, but on his face he looked like he was sincerely making a deal as he discussed with Ning Fan.

Ning Fan didn't know the evil plans in Emperor Tiandou's heart, but he was wary of this person. Naturally, he couldn't foolishly join him and learn some supreme swordsmanship.

But you can't refuse too obviously, otherwise it will be troublesome if Emperor Tiandu turns his face.

"I wonder where is the place where the tens of thousands of sword scabbards discovered by my senior are? Where are the bones of the senior who left this supreme swordsmanship buried?"

"This..." Emperor Tiandu was speechless for a moment, not because he wanted to hide anything from Ning Fan, but because he was afraid that if he revealed the location of the tens of thousands of sword scabbards, Ning Fan would be frightened and would not dare to go forward.

"It seems that the seniors are not sincere in making this deal. That's all. It's okay for the juniors not to learn this supreme swordsmanship. Let the seniors learn it alone." Ning Fan picked up the tea bowl in front of him and was about to see off his guests.

Seeing that the deal was about to break up, Emperor Tiandu became anxious. If Ning Fan didn't learn this supreme swordsmanship, he wouldn't be able to find another person who understood reincarnation and was easy to manipulate to learn this swordsmanship!

This is the third step of swordsmanship. Only those who have understood the third step are qualified to learn it.

What is the third step? It is perfection and reincarnation.
