Ji Fan also once again realized the importance of actual combat experience.

Of course, in fact, many monks know that the strength of sword cultivation cannot be judged only by cultivation, because many sword cultivators can cross one or two small realms to defeat strong opponents who are higher than their own cultivation.

Some sword cultivation geniuses can even truly achieve a leapfrog challenge and defeat a strong opponent who is a big realm higher than themselves, not to mention that Ji Fan is only a small rank higher than the other party.

Generally speaking, the strength of an ordinary sword cultivator of the seventh order of the astral realm was by no means weaker than that of an ordinary cultivator of the eighth or even ninth order of the astral realm.

But fortunately, Ji Fan is not an ordinary monk, he has not only completed a physical transformation, his physical fitness is comparable to that of a master of the Star Mansion Realm, he has also awakened the Double Star Soul.

Stronger in body and soul than the opponent, it can completely make up for the lack of combat experience.

"If we don't use the star rune, none of us can help anyone, so let's not fight, lest someone who happens to pass by pick it up. ”

After the man forced Ji Fan back with a sharp sweep, he suddenly spoke: "After all, there is no deep hatred between the two of us, and I don't care about the egg you are carrying." ”

Ji Fan glanced at a package behind him, and then he realized that the reason why the other party would fight with him must be to try if he could kill himself, and it was impossible for the other party not to worry about the eggs of the mutant dragon turtle in his package.

At this time, the other party saw that his strength was strong and it was obviously difficult to win, so he shouted to stop.

Compared to the uprightness and strength of other sword cultivators, this Sword Pavilion disciple was obviously more shrewd, and shrewd a little insidious.

"I'm guessing it's not that you don't want to use the star runes to settle the battle, it's that you don't have the star runes on you at all. ”

As Ji Fan spoke, he also had an extra star rune in his hand, which was the only star rune he had left for attacking.

"Hehe, I really didn't have a star rune originally, but after killing that Star Palace disciple just now, I found two star runes in his storage bag. ”

The disciple of the Sword Pavilion smiled and took out two star runes, and said with some disappointment: "It's a pity that one of these two star runes is a defensive star rune, and the other is a retreat star rune, and they can't be used to attack and kill the enemy. ”

"It's good if you can't attack!"

Ji Fan swung his knife forward again.

The other party did not hesitate to urge the Escape Star Rune, and the whole person was wrapped in an earthy yellow light, and then burrowed into the ground.

The other party knew that he couldn't beat Ji Fan, and it was difficult to get rid of Ji Fan with his own speed, so he chose to spend a piece of Earth Escape Star Talisman to escape.

"Damn it!"

Although Ji Fan was angry, he was helpless.

For the next ten days, he didn't look for anything again, but continued to cultivate his body in a secluded place.

He boiled the medicinal soup and drank it, smeared it all over his body, and then submerged his body in the magma, gritting his teeth and enduring the torment of the flames.

The star essence left by the two disciples of the Instrument Sect quickly consumed most of it.

The flesh became stronger and stronger, and more and more dregs in the body were discharged, and with the power of the stars provided by a large number of low-grade star crystals, Ji Fan finally completely imprinted his heart with the star pattern, completed the cultivation of the eighth order of the astral realm, and advanced to the ninth order of the astral realm.

Because of the particularity of the human brain, the monks will stay in the ninth order of the astral realm for a longer time, and they must be careful not to rush to imprint the star pattern in every part of the brain, eyes, and ears.

The Star Mansion Realm was a hurdle for low-level cultivators, and Ji Wanshan, the old master of the Ji family in Hundred Lotus City, had not been able to cross this hurdle after cultivating for decades.

In order to successfully advance to the Star Mansion Realm, and also to make the cultivation process of the ninth order of the Star Body Realm safer, Ji Fan felt that he should come to the Earth Fire Refining Body several more times.

When refining the body with earth fire, the head will also be submerged in the sea of magma and fire, and the brain will be more or less tempered and blessed by the fire energy, and it will be much easier to imprint the star pattern into it.

However, at the moment, he had almost exhausted all the Star Essence medicinal materials he could use, and the Earth Fire Refining Body could only stop.

He temporarily slowed down his cultivation pace and continued to wander through this dim world.

On the fiftieth day after coming here, he saw a hexagonal bronze tablet again, but the place where this bronze plate was located was surrounded by countless sea beasts.

Outside the encirclement of the sea beasts, he also saw the figures of several Terran monks.

The number of sea beasts here was huge, and the Terran monks did not dare to act rashly, so they could only watch as a sea beast took the bronze piece.

When this piece of bronze also had an owner, the whole dim world suddenly shook.

Ji Fan found that the bronze piece in his storage bag was beating incessantly, he hurriedly took it out, and then watched it fly away.

According to his experience in the Nine Star Islands, he followed the flight path of the bronze piece for half an hour, and before he could reach the target position, the bronze piece flew back and hovered over his head, enveloping him with a circle of bright light.

The bright light bound his whole body and carried him on, and in less than a hundred breaths, he was taken to a huge stone pillar.

This stone pillar was in the center of the ruined valley, when he came before, Ji Fan didn't find that there was a stone pillar here, it should have just popped up.

Looking around, Ji Fan saw nine other huge stone pillars, their appearance and the strange patterns carved all over their bodies were the same as the ten stone pillars in the Nine Star Islands.

In addition to the stone pillar where Ji Fan was standing, the other nine stone pillars were all on the big hill on the outskirts of the Ruined Valley.

This is obviously also the teleportation circle arranged by the indigenous monks of the Jiuchen Secret Realm.

Not long after, several other Terran Junjie and several sea beasts were swept over by the strong light and landed on a stone pillar.

This teleportation circle has been activated, and you don't have to do anything, just be patient.

Nine bright beams of light shot from a stone pillar to the stone pillar in the center of the ruins, and the stone pillar where Ji Fan was also radiated a beam of light towards the sky above him.

At the same time, Ji Fan felt that his own strength and vitality were constantly passing.

"It turns out that this formation is not to sacrifice the other nine beings to complete the creatures in the center, but to accumulate energy to open the portal of teleportation. ”

"This formation should be able to distinguish everyone's cultivation, with the highest cultivation standing on the most central stone pillar. ”

"In the past, if the indigenous monks of the Jiuchen Secret Realm wanted to activate this kind of teleportation array, they must have used a truly strong person with advanced cultivation to sit on a stone pillar. ”

"The reason why the formation of the Nine Star Islands was able to finally open the portal door last time was probably not because it had accumulated enough energy, but because my Infinite Star Bead suddenly became powerful. ”

"Wuji Xingzhu, it's a critical moment again, let's be powerful!"

Ji Fan pondered silently in his heart.

Just as he had expected, the Infinite Star Bead sensed the danger of its master, and it once again took the initiative to release a dazzling colored light.

The colored light not only shattered the bronze piece above Ji Fan's head, but also accompanied by a strong beam of light that pierced the space above Ji Fan's head, which was already severely distorted.

A silvery light gate appeared.

Ji Fan jumped into it without hesitation, and after a whirlwind of heaven, he rushed out of a black whirlpool and came to a vast ocean in mid-air.

He hurriedly used his skills to levitate himself in the air, guarding the exit of this black vortex.

A sea beast then rushed out, and he unceremoniously slashed at it, splitting its body in two.

Then another Terran monk rushed out, and was also attacked and killed by him.

Then there was another sea beast, but the scale armor of this sea beast was extremely strong, and Ji Fan's sneak attack only caused it to fall into the sea with serious injuries and failed to kill it.

Ji Fan didn't chase it, the sea beast fell into the sea and sank, and he didn't dare to seek revenge on Ji Fan.

In this way, Ji Fan killed four sea beasts in a row, seriously injured one, and killed three Terran monks.

These three Terran monks were the ones who had hunted him down, and there was no need for him to show mercy to them.

The reason why they had to kill them was not only because they had chased and killed Ji Fan, but also because Ji Fan didn't want them to return to the Tianchen Continent alive, and he didn't want them to tell the news about the mutant dragon turtle eggs.

However, to Ji Fan's surprise, the Sword Pavilion disciple he wanted to kill the most did not come out soon.

He took the storage bags of the three Terran monks who had already been killed, and wanted to continue to squat at the Sword Pavilion disciple, but he couldn't levitate in the air for a long time, and the pressure of the space on him was getting stronger and stronger, so he could only fall temporarily.

In mid-air, he had already seen that there was a large island not far away, but instead of swimming there immediately, he was temporarily lurking in the water.

From the shape of that island, it could be guessed that he had returned to the waters of the Nine Star Islands in the Jiuchen Secret Realm, and the island in front of him was formed by the merger of nine islands.

Although he successfully returned to the Jiuchen Secret Realm, how to return to the Tianchen Continent became another problem.

The Star Sect no longer suppressed the natural laws of the Jiuchen Secret Realm and those unyielding fighting intents, the Jiuchen Secret Realm was not suitable for foreign beings to stay for a long time, and it was more than a hundred times more dangerous than that dim but quiet world.

After waiting for half a column of incense in the seawater, the Sword Pavilion disciple finally rushed out of the black whirlpool.

Ji Fan quickly surfaced and urged an attack-type star rune without hesitation.

However, the moment he activated the star rune, he found that the other party's whole body was wrapped in a golden light shield, and it was obvious that the other party had urged the defensive star rune before coming out.

Shout!

The star runes that had been urged turned into two golden rays of light in an instant, and they **** out one after the other.

Bang!

Two rays of golden light hit the Sword Pavilion disciple's body shield one after another, completely shattering that circle of golden light shield, and also knocking the Sword Pavilion disciple far away.

However, it could be seen from the fact that the Sword Pavilion disciple quickly stabilized his body that this person had not suffered a heavy blow.

The Sword Pavilion disciple waved his long sword, and several sharp sword rays broke through the air towards Ji Fan's side.

Ji Fan swung his knife to split those few sword rays, and then killed the other party.

That Sword Pavilion disciple seemed to know that Ji Fan was more powerful than last time, and he didn't fight Ji Fan, but just swam towards that island with his head bored.

But he soon found that his speed was much worse than that of his opponent, and he was afraid that he would be caught up by the opponent before he could swim to the island.

So, he simply stopped, ready to use all means to fight with all his might. Peerless Star Soul
