The Devil's Tribulation

Chapter 848: The Era of Prodigies

The pilgrimage city of Nanzhou.

After Pan Chengfeng moved into the room arranged for him by Nangong Tian, he began to feel uneasy.

He had been practicing in seclusion for these years, and his mind was filled with a bunch of geniuses from the continent, so he suddenly forgot about Nangong Wan.

When he met Nangong Wan that year, although he was wearing makeup, how could he hide his handsome face?

At such a close distance, Nangong Wan must have engraved his appearance into her soul.

If they met again, Pan Chengfeng had no confidence that he could hide it from Nangong Wan.

"It's best not to meet..." Pan Chengfeng muttered, "If we can't avoid it, I'll never admit it. As a young lady from the Zijin Mansion, I think she wouldn't dare to tell anyone about it."

The so-called "that thing" is naturally the spanking by that lecherous Pan Chengfeng. Oh, and he also kissed the girl's pretty face~ (For details, please refer to Chapter 296: Nangong Wan)

Pilgrimage City, Nangong Family Villa.

"An interesting person?" Nangong Wan blinked her beautiful eyes and said, "What makes him interesting? Tell me~"

Nangong Wan usually can't go out, so Nangong Tian often tells her some interesting things outside. This is also a rare way for Nangong Wan to relax and have fun.

Nangong Tian said with a smile: "This time, a kid came from the Dongzhou Yu Lei Sect. His strength is really extraordinary. Even if my brother wants to defeat him, it will not be easy~"

This sentence piqued Nangong Wan's curiosity, and she quickly asked, "What? There's actually an opponent that even my brother thinks is strong? Who is he? What's his cultivation level?"

Nangong Tian put away his smile and said, "This man's name is Pan Chengfeng. He is only at the first level of the Nascent Soul Realm, but his magical power is as strong as my brother's. He is the first true opponent my brother has encountered."

Nangong Wan covered her mouth, looking adorable, and asked in surprise, "Nascent Soul Realm? And it's only one level? Brother, don't think I don't understand!

My brother is a Little Flame Spirit, and his mana is many times stronger than that of an average cultivator. Coupled with the great imperial cultivation techniques of our Nangong family, my brother's mana is at least twenty times stronger than that of an average cultivator!"

"Little sister~" Nangong Tianyu said seriously, "Brother will tell you what father said today, 'There are always people who are better than you, and there are always things better than you.'"

Nangong Wan snorted disapprovingly and said, "If what brother said is true, then the person you mentioned can defeat you even if he becomes a god?"

Nangong Tian said solemnly, "My little sister is right. He may not even need to reach the Spiritual Transformation stage! Perhaps at the seventh or eighth level of the Nascent Soul, or even the fifth or sixth level, his magic will be as powerful as my brother's."

Seeing that her brother wasn't joking, Nangong Wan put away her contempt and said, "Then if brother wants to get into the top ten in this competition, doesn't that mean he has another opponent?"

Nangong Tian nodded and said, "Indeed, I originally thought that apart from the four great divine palaces, the only other person left was the Saintess from the Northern Continent. Now there is another variable."

The intelligence network of Zijin Mansion in Nanzhou is much more developed than that of Dongzhou.

It can be said that there is nothing that Dongzhou does not know. Therefore, the fact that the Holy Maiden of the Jade Maiden Sect of Beizhou killed a cultivator in the middle stage of the fusion state is known to the Purple Gold Mansion of Nanzhou better than the Ghost Control Sect.

Speaking of the saint, Nangong Wan's pretty face turned pale. Although she seldom went out, she still knew some things.

The gap between the middle stage of fusion and the early stage of fusion is not a little bit. Nangong Tian only defeated the cultivator in the early stage of fusion, but that saint killed a cultivator in the middle stage of fusion!

Seeing that his younger sister was worried about him, Nangong Tian smiled and touched Nangong Wan's little head and said, "Don't worry, little sister. Father said that although Xue You is powerful, she is not a murderer. As long as you don't provoke her, you will be fine."

Nangong Wan nodded and said, "Brother, you'd better be careful~" Nangong Tian smiled and said, "Brother, I know. Do you still want to hear about Pan Chengfeng?"

Anyway, there was nothing to say, so Nangong Wan was naturally willing to listen to what Nangong Tian wanted to say. She smiled lightly and said, "Then brother, continue~"

Nangong Tian sorted out the information about Pan Chengfeng in his mind: "That Pan Chengfeng is the champion of this year's Dongzhou Three Sects Competition, and he won with a perfect score!

It's been over ten thousand years since the last time someone from the Yu Lei Sect scored a perfect score. He's only in his forties! (Not counting the thirty years at the Purple Thunder Pagoda.)

Nangong Wan opened her mouth slightly and said, "So young?!" Nangong Tian nodded and continued, "The reason why he is so powerful is because he possesses the 'Sacred Body of the Wilderness' that is rarely seen in a hundred thousand years!

This holy body is the second most powerful among many special physiques, only below the Chaos Divine Body! "

Nangong Wan was really shocked this time. This was the first time she had heard of a Saint Body with such a high ranking, so she asked, "Where does Brother's little Flame Spirit Body rank?"

Nangong Tian smiled and said, "Brother's small flame spirit body is only ranked 24th, but as long as brother advances to the fusion stage, the small flame spirit body will mature and become a large flame spirit body, which ranks 7th!

Moreover, these special physiques are not just about rankings, the most important thing is to use them properly.

Just like my brother, the combination of the Little Flame Spirit Body and the cultivation method he has practiced has doubled the power! It is no less powerful than those high-ranking special physiques! "

Thinking of her brother's strength, Nangong Wan smiled happily and said, "Brother is right. What's so great about the Savage Sacred Body? If I meet you, I can still beat him to a pulp~"

Afterwards, Nangong Tian told Nangong Wan about some of the geniuses who came from Dongzhou this time, such as Liu Yuexin and Li Ke.

Nangong Wan frowned and asked, "Why are there so many young geniuses with special physiques appearing in Dongzhou all of a sudden?"

Nangong Tian sighed and said, "Father said that an era when geniuses emerge in large numbers is also an era when great disasters are about to strike.

These rare and special physiques have appeared not only in Dongzhou, but also in Xizhou, Beizhou, and our Nanzhou.

For example, my brother’s little flame spirit body, the Vajra holy body of the little monk in Jinguang Temple, the Yinsha mysterious body of the corpse barbarian of the Xizhou Corpse Leader Sect, and so on.

Although there's no definite news about the Saintess of the Northern Continent Jade Maiden Sect, it's highly likely she's awakened a rare physique, most likely the top ten Ice Phoenix Body."

The simultaneous emergence of so many geniuses in the same era foreshadowed the impending catastrophe. Nangong Wan worriedly asked, "Since you know the catastrophe is coming, why don't you hurry up and prepare? And actually hold a grand competition?"

Nangong Tian smiled and said, "It is because we know that a great disaster is coming that we must hold a competition to select the best talents and concentrate resources on training them. After all, resources are limited."

Nangong Wan suddenly rolled her eyes and said, "Brother, take me to see those geniuses. I heard that Liu Yuexin is so beautiful~"

Nangong Xing knew his sister wanted to take the opportunity to go out and play, and just when he was about to refuse, Nangong Wan took out a communication talisman and said, "If you don't take me with you, I will tell Sister Miaomiao that 'brother went to peek at that Liu Yuexin~'"

Nangong Xing was furious. He snatched the communication talisman from Nangong Wan's hand and said, "How dare you frame me? I haven't even settled the score with you for last time, and now you're doing it again!"

The so-called last time was when Nangong Wan used the same method to threaten Nangong Tian, causing Nangong Tian to assign her a mission to go to Dongzhou as a spy.

Because of this incident, he was scolded by Nangong Xing. Nangong Xing is still angry about it. Now Nangong Wan is going to threaten him with the same trick again. How could he agree?

Nangong Wan knew she was in the wrong, but she just wanted to go out and take a look, so she took out another communication talisman and said, "I'm just going to take a look, I'm not going far, brother, why are you so stingy?"

Nangong Tian angrily said, "No! My father said he would arrange a blind date for you, so you should stay here honestly!"

Nangong Wan's pretty face flushed red as she said, "I'm not going! I don't care about a merchant's son! I want to choose my own husband!!"

"Listen! Listen to this!" Nangong Tianqi said, "How can a girl find a husband on her own?

Since ancient times, marriages have always been decided by parents and matchmakers! You are the eldest daughter of the Nangong family, don’t forget your status! !

Nangong Tian stood up and prepared to leave. When he reached the door, his heart softened. He turned around and looked at his sister with red eyes and said, "Little sister, it's not that father and brother are cruel. I will get married sooner or later, but how can your vision compare to father's?

Father said that Shang Jicheng is a good choice. No matter his ability, character or family background, he is worthy of my sister. Moreover, we in Nanzhou need to win over some of the big families in Dongzhou..."

Nangong Wan laughed bitterly and said, "Winning over a powerful family? Daddy only has the sect in his heart! Where is my presence?!"

Nangong Tian sighed inwardly. He didn't want his sister to marry far away in Dongzhou, but he had no way to change Nangong Xing's decision.
