Chapter 642: Trial in the Nine Netherworld

"What game?"

Ning Daoran asked with a frown, his heart beating fast. Emperor Jiuyou was such a terrifying existence, playing games with him... the biggest possibility was that he would turn against him.

If you win you die, and if you lose you also die. It's actually quite despairing.

"Look!"

Emperor Jiuyou flicked his sleeves behind him, and suddenly the originally barren area behind him opened up into a new world. It was not a big place, just a lush small valley.

"This is the Nine Netherworld Demon Realm, which was condensed by this seat's immortal power."

Emperor Jiuyou squatted on the ground, looking down at Ning Daoran, and said with a smile: "My friend, are you willing to enter the Jiuyou Demon Realm and accept the challenge I set for you?"

"challenge?"

Ning Daoran asked suspiciously, "Senior, you can easily kill me, but why do you want to set a challenge for me? What kind of challenge is this?"

"I don't want to hide it from you."

Emperor Jiuyou said, "Killing you is indeed no different from crushing an ant, but it is a pity for a genius like you who can practice the unity of the five elements to perish. So I want to play with you. As for the challenge... you just need to enter the Jiuyou Demon Realm, and you will face me in the early stage of the Nascent Soul. If you can defeat him, you will be the winner."

“…”

Ning Daoran's heart trembled, he claimed to be invincible in the same level, and he had defeated almost all the invincible opponents in the Nascent Soul stage in the early stage. Logically, this challenge should be a piece of cake for him, but the opponent was Emperor Jiuyou, a human emperor who was much more terrifying than Ning Tianyi. The Nascent Soul stage of such a person must be extremely terrifying.

"Why should you consider this, young friend? You have no choice at all."

Emperor Jiuyou smiled calmly: "If you don't want to, I can kill you and the human cultivators who have been turned into stone statues in one breath. Do you still want to consider it?"

"Please forgive me, senior."

Ning Daoran clasped his fists respectfully and said, "Although I am weak, I don't want to spoil your fun, but some things must be made clear. I am willing to accept this challenge. If I lose, I will admit that I am inferior to you and will let you deal with me. But if I win by chance, how will you treat me?"

"If you win..."

Emperor Jiuyou narrowed his eyes. He had not considered this possibility and was lost in thought for a moment.

After a while, he said calmly: "If you can really beat me at that time, I will let you go. In addition, I will release Ning Tianyi and other human cultivators from their imprisonment and let you take them away. How do you think?"

"Senior, you have a broad mind, I admire you very much!"

Ning Daoran frowned and continued respectfully, "But... City Lord Ning is the lord of Guixu City. As the saying goes, he will not allow others to sleep beside him. I'm afraid he will still find a way to lead the human cultivators to attack Jiuyou City. Simply letting them leave may not solve the problem."

“Tsk tsk…”

Emperor Jiuyou sneered and said, "You are really taking advantage of me, you little brat."

As he said this, he suddenly laughed at himself: "Well, I have been living in the underground for many years, and I am tired of it... If you really win, I am willing to lead my subordinates to dispel this resentment, and from now on, dust will return to dust, how do you think?"

"senior……"

Ning Daoran frowned and said, "I really admire you for saying that..."

"snort!"

Emperor Jiuyou crossed his arms and said with a lazy smile: "I really enjoy your flattery, but... it's not easy to defeat me when I was in the early stage of the Nascent Soul."

"It is precisely because it is not easy that I have another request?"

"You have another request?"

Emperor Jiuyou was furious: "Tell me, what else is going on?"

"Senior, you have great merits and unfathomable cultivation. I am just a junior with mediocre talent and nothing to do. It is naturally very difficult for me to defeat a senior of the same level. So, can you limit the number of times I can challenge you? I will definitely not be able to pass the challenge once or twice, so I hope you can be more lenient and allow me to challenge unlimited times. What do you think?"

"Can."

Emperor Jiuyou unexpectedly agreed readily and said, "It's a waste of time for me to set up such a challenge for you anyway, so why not give you countless chances?"

"Thank you, senior!"

Ning Daoran was excited: "Senior is indeed a master, his mind is incomparable to ordinary people!"

"alright."

Emperor Jiuyou said: "Can you start now?"

"I will follow the instructions of my seniors!"

Ning Daoran held the big blue dragon, turned around and stepped into the Nine Netherworld Demon Realm.

…

“Swish!”

The moment your feet step onto the light curtain, you are already in another world.

The terrain of the Jiuyou Demon Realm is a valley. At this moment, a handsome young man with a long sword in his hand walked out of the valley in front. He was the young Emperor Jiuyou.

Ning Daoran released his divine sense to scan and found that the other person was only ninety-six years old! Outrageous!

He was only ninety-six years old and had already reached the Nascent Soul stage! "Humph!"

The younger version of Emperor Jiuyou smiled calmly: "Who do you think you are? How dare you challenge me?"

He is extremely arrogant and domineering.

Ning Daoran didn't say anything, but secretly lit a fourth-level low-grade speed talisman in his sleeve. A deep blue electric light flashed around him, and he appeared in front of the other party in an instant, and slashed down with a big blue dragon!

Sneak attack!

Unfortunately, when the spear swept down, it only hit the opponent's afterimage.

"A cunning villain!"

The voice of Emperor Jiuyou came from behind him.

Ning Daoran quickly turned around and sacrificed the Cold Dragon Stone Plate to defend himself. At the same time, he unreservedly sacrificed treasures such as the Nine Dragon Mirror, the Fire God Sword, and the Blood-Drinking Sword, and attacked the opponent from all directions!

There was constant thunder in the valley, and two Nascent Soul early stage cultivators were engaged in a fierce battle.

…

After half a cup of tea.

"rustle……"

Ning Daoran walked out of the Nine Netherworld Demon Realm, his face bruised and swollen beyond recognition.

Outside, the huge body of Emperor Jiuyou hugged his knees, looking down at Ning Daoran, the corners of his mouth twitching constantly, trying hard to hold back his laughter.

Ning Daoran, who was beaten into a pig's head, said helplessly: "Senior, if you want to laugh, just laugh. Why do you have to hold it in?"

“Hahahahahaha~~~”

Emperor Jiuyou finally couldn't help himself and laughed without any scruples: "Little friend Ning, how did you get beaten into this state? Aren't you known as the invincible one in the same level of the Eastern Wilderness Immortal Cultivation World?"

“…”

Ning Daoran looked embarrassed: "Who would have thought that there are always people better than you, and there are always mountains better than you. The combat power of the senior in the early stage of Yuanying was indeed amazing."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"That's natural."

Emperor Jiuyou smiled calmly and said, "When I was in the Jindan stage, I encountered an opportunity and cultivated the Five Elements Destruction Art. You should have sensed it in the battle just now. The ordinary Five Elements Immortal Art can't hurt me at all. Even the Chaos Spiritual Power that you have cultivated with great effort can't pose much threat to me."

"That's right."

Ning Daoran sat down on the ground, regulating his breathing to heal his injuries, and said, "Senior, so the source of the black tide... is it the Five Elements Destruction Technique that you practiced?"

"Not at all."

Emperor Jiuyou shook his head: "The Black Tide originally existed in the gap between the human world and the earthly immortal world, and the opportunity I obtained back then was a gemstone that contained the power of the Black Tide. So you think too much. Jiuyou City is not the source of the Black Tide, it just happens to have a part of the Black Tide's power."

"I see."

Ning Daoran said in a deep voice: "I will challenge you again after a few days of healing."

"Good, I'll wait for you!"

…

A few days later.

Ning Daoran was beaten into a pig's head again.

The moment he walked out of the Nine Netherworld Demon Realm, he realized that trying again and again was not a solution. The reason why the Nine Netherworld Emperor was so strong in the early Nascent Soul stage was not because of his fighting skills. Even if Ning Daoran improved his fighting skills, he would still be no match for the opponent. The real reason why he could not defeat the opponent was because of the opponent's Five Elements Destruction Technique.

Only by increasing the strength of chaotic magic power can you truly defeat the opponent.

So, Ning Daoran decided to start with the Five Elements Immortal Vine.

After all, the origin of his cultivation came from the Changqing Jue. If he could cultivate a perfect Five Elements Immortal Vine and then fuse the Five Elements Immortal Vine into one, he would be able to obtain an immortal vine with chaotic attributes. By strengthening the foundation of the Changqing Jue, he could obtain more refined and powerful chaotic power. This was the only way to break the opponent's Five Elements Destruction Technique.

"Senior, I need to retreat for a while."

Ning Daoran said truthfully: "If I keep trying like this, even if I fight you 10,000 times, I will never be your opponent, so I hope you can give me some time to retreat."

"Can."

Emperor Jiuyou smiled calmly: "I can wait for ten thousand years, let alone the few years you are in seclusion."

"Thank you!"

…

Ning Daoran entered Lingpu Cave and began to retreat.

In front of a powerful person like Emperor Jiuyou, he did not hide anything. Lingpu Cave Heaven was not a secret at all. Perhaps others had seen through it at the first glance.

“Hmph~~~”

Emperor Jiuyou sat on the ground with his sleeves rolled up, squinting his eyes and resting.

The real dragon circled in the air, but did not roar, because it had already died.

Thus, the underground world became quiet.

As for the outside world...

Ning Tianyi led an army of cultivators into the Nine Nether City and never returned, but no one brought back any news, and those who came later could no longer enter the Nine Nether City. The outer area had been sealed off by the Nine Nether Emperor, and any human cultivator who tried to break into the Nine Nether City had been thrown out by the Nine Nether Emperor. From then on, the Nine Nether City became a forbidden area.

As for the Guixu Fairyland, two elders from Guixu City who were in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul were in charge, so as to avoid chaos.

But if Ning Tianyi didn't show up, the major forces hiding in the dark would probably suspect that Ning Tianyi and others had already fallen in Jiuyou City, and Guixu City would soon change its owner! ...

Half a year later.

"It's done!"

Ning Daoran walked out of the hut with an excited look on his face. Around him, wisps of golden fairy vines lingered, and the Gengjin essence was rich! After half a year of stealth research, he had already merged the Eternal Fairy Vine with the Golden Tripod Mysterious Art and obtained the Golden Vine!

The next moment, he strode out of Lingpu Cave with a confident look on his face.

"Senior, I want to challenge you again!"

"good."

The Emperor of the Nine Netherworld opened his eyes, his face full of excitement. He stretched out his hand and opened the Nine Netherworld Devil Realm, saying, "My friend, I wish you good luck."

"Thank you, senior!"

Ning Daoran stepped into the cave world.

In a moment, he returned the same way, his face swollen like a pig's head from being beaten.
