disagree with giving it away like this." said the elder."I agree. Luo Yang has caused us, the Wancao Sect, immense damage... We have no need to save him!""I agree. I don't think it should be unified...Lan Qingfeng couldn't have imagined that his grand ambitions, which hadn't even taken their first step, would come to a permanent end.

Fang Yu stood motionless, his face expressionless.

He found Lan Qingfeng through the induction of fire.

Lan Qingfeng's escape distance was roughly three thousand miles, which was quite a distance.

But just as Fang Yu was about to find Lan Qingfeng, the sensation of the separated fire suddenly disappeared.

This shows that Lihuo was extinguished by Lan Qingfeng, and in a very short time, all traces of his presence disappeared.

This surprised Fang Yu very much.

Although there are ways to extinguish fire, it would be quite difficult to put out a wildfire in such a short time.

Especially considering that Lan Qingfeng was already seriously injured.

How did he put out the fire

Driven by this suspicion, Fang Yu found Lan Qingfeng at the fastest speed and killed him.

"Whoosh!"

At that moment, deep within the crumbling earth, a plume of black smoke rose slowly.

Fang Yu noticed this, staring at the location of the black smoke, his brows furrowed.

Lan Qingfeng is definitely dead, so where did this black smoke come from

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh…"

In the depths of the crumbling earth, black smoke gathered into clumps and rapidly contracted, coalescing into a bead the size of an eye.

This bead glistens with a deep, lustrous blackness as it hovers in mid-air, emanating an aura of cold and eerie strangeness.

Fang Yu's eyes flickered, and he immediately swooped down, coming before the bead.

At this moment, the bead was suspended in mid-air, motionless.

"This aura must be the source of the strange feeling Lan Qingfeng gave me before..." Fang Yu stared at the bead in front of him.

This bead must have previously existed within Lan Qingfeng's body.

He punched Lan Qingfeng to pieces, but the bead didn't shatter along with him.

It is highly probable that...the power to extinguish the fire comes from this bead.

"Wow!"

Fang Yu was still thinking, but the bead in front of him suddenly shook, releasing a large amount of black smoke.

A ring of black smoke coalesced into a maw, and a chilling voice emanated from it: "Your former master is dead. Will you become my new one"

"Who are you" Fang Yu asked, frowning.

"Counterfate Pearl." The mouth of black smoke swirled and replied.

Reversal beads...

Fang Yu's eyes flickered.

This was the first time he had heard this name.

And this pearl, it also has self-awareness, obviously not simple.

"Lan Qingfeng has a good natural talent, but unfortunately his life force is too weak to bear the fortune I bestowed upon him." The Inverse Fate Pearl continued, "But I still have to thank him for bringing me out of that filthy and cold ghost place, allowing me to see the light of day again."

Fang Yu narrowed his eyes and said, "Your name is Ni-Ming Zhuzi, but you say Lan Qingfeng's fate is too thin. Isn't that contradictory Shouldn't your role be to change his destiny"

“I can help him change his fate, but he must have a solid enough foundation,” the Reverse Fate Pearl said calmly. “And his fate has indeed changed. Before receiving my power, his talent was only considered average. But after receiving my power, he immediately became one of the best among the younger generation, and even nurtured greater ambition... However, that’s the extent of his destiny.”

If it were you… you would undoubtedly reach a level far higher than his.

"Oh Can you still see my horoscope" Fang Yu raised an eyebrow and asked with a smile, "Then tell me, how thick is my fate"

"To see your destiny, you must let me merge with your body," the 逆命珠子 said. "Only by becoming completely one with me can I provide you with assistance and help you soar to great heights."

“To merge with me directly” Fang Yu’s eyes flickered slightly, he said.

"The choice is yours. If you wish to go further, merge with me. If not... then I shall seek a more suitable master." The Inverse Fate Pearl spoke.

"You exist solely to help others That's awfully grand, isn't it" Fang Yu raised an eyebrow.

"My role is to defy fate and change destiny. If you have enough capital, I can exert my greatest power," the Reverse Fate Bead murmured softly, "But ultimately, the choice is yours."

Fang Yu crossed his arms and asked with interest, "What level can you help me reach I can tell you that I'm currently at the Qi Refining stage. Can you help me defy fate and…break through to the Foundation Establishment stage"

"...The Reverse Fate Pearl seemed to be stunned for a moment, silence falling upon her for several seconds."

A moment later, it spoke, "Of course, but if your goal is merely the Foundation Establishment stage..."

"I have no other aspirations in my life but to one day break through to the Foundation Establishment period," Fang Yu interrupted the words of Ni-Ming Zhu, saying, "My goal is the Foundation Establishment period, I wouldn't even consider the Core Formation period for it."

“Well, that's alright. As long as we merge into one, building a foundation…will be easy.”

"Well, I see..." Fang Yu rested his chin in his hand, looking thoughtful.

The Reverse Fate Beads floated in mid-air, faintly emitting black qi as they silently awaited Fang Yu's choice.

"What do you think of this pearl It feels to me like the Chaos Pearl that Jiang Dao, a remnant of the Zi Yan Palace on Earth, held back then…" Fang Yu thought to himself.

Of course, he was inquiring about the Fire Jade and Tears of Absolute Cold.

"It's nothing, it's just a bead..." Lihuo Yu said.

"Its power can extinguish your fire of departure," Fang Yu said. "It's not an ordinary bead, is it"

"Lihuo Jade sneered dismissively and said, "You released only a wisp of lihuo. What difference does it make if it's extinguished Many powers can put out lihuo. Of course, I'm not saying it's useless. For ordinary cultivators, this orb might be considered a powerful artifact, but for you...it's just a snack for the Great Dao Spirit, isn't it"

"Could this Inverted Fate Pearl really be so great" Fang Yu asked, "Helping others change their fate for nothing"

“Of course not. I can tell you clearly that the vast majority of magical artifacts that give birth to self-awareness, especially those with a cold aura… no matter who they help, their ultimate goal is themselves. Either they want to take over the body or secretly absorb the blood and flesh of the host they inhabit, in order to one day forge their own physical body,” Li Huo Yu said, “So the saying ‘there’s no such thing as a free lunch’ is absolutely right.”

"Oh So, you and the Tears of Frost aren't…" Fang Yu raised an eyebrow and said.

Li Huo Yu let out a cold snort and said, "Ji Han Zhi Lei might have thought about things he shouldn't have. I wouldn't even dare to think about it."

"You wouldn't dare think that now," Jihan Zilei suddenly spoke, her tone laced with a hint of amusement.

"I never would have thought that it would be you..." Lǐ Huǒyù was a bit flustered, wanting to say something.

But its voice abruptly ceased. your retreat!”"Brother Wu..."Two younger monks, known as A-San and A-Si, paled visibly."Cut the crap, this is an order! If you don't leave now, none of us will make it out alive. We'll all die here t...
