Top-tier Unruly Master

Chapter 2334: Chapter 2369: Something’s Not Right

After organizing these things, all useful items were kept, and those that shouldn’t be kept, Ding Fan prepared to have Crimson Flame take them to the Spirit Dragon Corporation to sell, and then purchase a batch of Spiritual Materials needed for breaking through the Sixth Level of the Divine Realm, as well as materials needed for cultivating at the Sixth Level in the Divine Realm.

The Northern Wastelands is an arid land, with hardly any rare Spiritual Materials, but the natural resources in the Central Plains are abundant. As long as there’s Black Obsidian, not only are Spiritual Materials for cultivating at the Sixth Level in the Divine Realm available, but even those required for the Seventh Level can be bought.

Herr Rufeng didn’t return to Tianmu Sea but stayed in Dream Love City to assist Madam Yan, occasionally accompanying Ding Aoshuang and sometimes engaging in some cultivation. This was evidently Madam Yan’s idea, for she knew Ding Fan valued Ding Aoshuang greatly. If Ding Aoshuang’s heart was moved, Herr Rufeng and Ding Fan might end up as family.

Simultaneously, Madam Yan also sent someone to the other world to find Herr Ningshuang. As Herr Ningshuang had a good relationship with Ding Fan, if either of the sisters married him, the Herr Family’s position would be completely secure.

Zhao Xiner also came over. Zhao Tianyong is not a fool, and even if he hadn’t proposed this matter, those elders from the Zhao Family likely would have suggested it. For a family, an alliance through marriage is significant, and Ding Fan extremely values emotions. If Zhao Xiner could marry Ding Fan, it would not only maintain the current advantages but also enable further growth and expansion.

Unfortunately...

Ding Fan went into seclusion for cultivation, and Herr Rufeng and Zhao Xiner couldn’t see him. Yet they weren’t disappointed. In reality, they both detested the intertwining of family interests with emotional ties. They preferred to develop freely, and without romantic feelings, they wouldn’t force themselves. When Ding Fan teleported from Shenwu Country to the Central Plains, Zhao Tianyong wanted Zhao Xiner to accompany Ding Fan. However, in the end, Zhao Xiner chose not to, showing her character.

...

As time passed, the Northern Wastelands became increasingly stable. Zhong Zhiyong, with his iron-blooded forces, suppressed various areas and wiped out numerous families. How many of these families were rebels and how many were wrongfully killed, only Zhong Zhiyong knows.

Zhong Zhiyong is now quite famous in the Northern Wastelands, nicknamed "Zhong the God of Slaughter." His fame is second only to Ding Fan, and so many people have died at his hands, instilling dread among all warriors in the Northern Wastelands.

A month later, the Northern Wastelands completely settled down.

No one dared cause trouble; no city dared stir unrest. Under Madam Yan’s arrangements, all affairs fell into place. Most mines, Spirit Mountains, various resources, etc., have been taken control of, and a considerable amount of Spiritual Materials has been continuously added to the national treasury.

Crimson Flame has already traded twice with Inkwater City and Spirit Dragon Hall. The Spirit Dragon Corporation’s attitude is very favorable. As Ling Hong stated, they purchased Ding Fan’s materials at Central Plains prices, and materials Crimson Flame acquired were slightly below this by twenty percent.

After a month of cultivation, Ding Fan emerged from seclusion. Over this period, his True Yuan received a significant replenishment, and his Soul Space expanded further. He wasn’t tired of cultivation but rather received an important piece of information.

Herr Ningshuang encountered an accident!

A month ago, Madam Yan went to the other world but, after searching the entire world, she didn’t find Herr Ningshuang. In that small world, there were no powerful Tigertooth Apes. Herr Ningshuang had a Flying Divine Sword that could soar at any time, and was wearing high-level armor, rendering accidents unlikely, so Madam Yan was confident.

Outside this small world, Herr Family elders were guarding the area. Herr Ningshuang had never exited, and no remnants were found inside. A few Tigertooth Apes were captured and rigorously interrogated, yet no information about Herr Ningshuang being killed came to light.

No body, no trace of the person; she vanished suddenly.

When the messenger returned with the report, Madam Yan was very anxious, immediately dispatching Herr Qianjun to search, then reaching out to Ding Fan, as Herr Ningshuang represented the Herr Family’s future hope, and she couldn’t accept any problems arising.

Upon receiving the news, Ding Fan instantly left his cultivation chamber and brought along Ye Li and Crimson Flame. Simultaneously, he sent a message for Zhong Zhiyong to teleport to Daozhen City. These three Sixth Level Divine Realm experts had their advantages, ensuring absolute control after entering the other world.

Ding Fan also instructed the Herr Family’s Fourth Level Divine Realm experts to head into that other world, believing that more people would facilitate finding Herr Ningshuang.

On the Dream Love City side, in order to directly reach Daozhen City, a Teleportation Array was constructed. Ding Fan led people to teleport to Daozhen City, though Madam Yan didn’t accompany them, as she needed to uphold Dream Love City. Herr Rufeng and Zhao Xiner went along; Herr Rufeng worried about Herr Ningshuang, while Zhao Xiner aimed to adventure with Ding Fan.

"Let’s go!"

Upon arriving at Daozhen City, Zhong Zhiyong was already waiting. Ding Fan gestured to Zhong Zhiyong and released the Super Airship, and the group leapt aboard.

The entrance to the Tigertooth Ape World lies west of Daozhen Island, several thousand miles away, dubbed the Demon Sea by the people of Tianmu Sea due to its frequent storms and formidable sea beasts. Ordinary fishermen venturing near are destined to perish.

Previously, Crimson Flame mentioned a place in Tianmu Sea often beset by Tornados, indicating this sea area, with the entrance to the other world being underwater. Tornados frequently occur here and likely relate greatly to the other world’s entrance.

Currently, this Super Airship is the very one Ding Fan and his group used when departing from the Ding Family, and it’s incredibly fast. Within two hours it reached the sea area.

"It’s really strange here."

Ding Fan gazed at the sky from afar, noticing how oppressive the sky seemed. The sea below surged with waves, its water darkened enough to feel perilous without even drawing near.

Of course, these dangers pertain to ordinary people. With Ding Fan’s group being quite formidable and protected by three Sixth Level Divine Realm experts, naturally there were no concerns.

The Super Airship dashed forward and plunged into the Demon Sea. Ding Fan squinted as he spotted Tornados nearby, beneath which emerged a colossal whirlpool. Mysterious creatures occasionally emitted their presence in the whirlpool’s vicinity.

"Young Master!"

Crimson Flame addressed Ding Fan: "The entrance to the Tigertooth Ape World lies beneath the whirlpool, and the Tornado hasn’t dissipated yet. Approaching too closely would pose dangers; otherwise... let’s wait for a while."

"What are you afraid of?"

This tornado was much smaller than the one they had seen at sea last time, and they were only descending to the water’s surface. Ding Fan waved his hand and said, "Go down, Zhong Zhiyong will lead the way, Ye Li will protect Herr Rufeng and Zhao Xiner, and Crimson Flame will guard the rear."

Ding Fan gave the order, and the others didn’t dare to say much. They put away the super airship and together shot towards the sea.

"Roar~"

A distant roar came from the sea surface, and the sea creatures below began to move. Zhong Zhiyong shot in like a dragon, unsheathed a long blade, and released blade gleams. Crimson Flame also made a move, easily killing a gigantic sea lion-like mysterious sea beast.

Before the people of Tianmu Sea arrived, Ding Fan was already impatient. Several of them dove all the way to the seabed, where they saw a massive vortex spinning in the water from afar, pulling their bodies uncontrollably towards it.

The vortex’s pull was not a problem; Zhong Zhiyong and the others were not afraid. A group of them directly plunged into the seabed vortex, rotating along its path.

Herr Rufeng and Zhao Xiner found their bodies somewhat out of control, so they reached out to Ding Fan. Both of them clung to Ding Fan’s arm, their beautiful bodies pressing closely against him. Ding Fan couldn’t help but feel a bit excited; in the water, whether they were clothed or not made almost no difference.

The spinning speed increased, and everyone was swept into a dark tunnel.

After spinning for a long time, it felt like they had fallen from the sky, and as their eyes brightened, they found themselves in an unfamiliar, alien world.

"Whoosh whoosh..."

Ding Fan hadn’t had time to look around carefully when he suddenly noticed many gray tigertooth apes emerging from all directions, covering mountains and fields like locusts without end...

"Something’s wrong!"

Zhong Zhiyong and Crimson Flame exchanged glances, both feeling something was amiss.

In this alien world, tigertooth apes attacking humans was normal, but the problem was the sheer number of tigertooth apes launching an attack, and their attacks were evidently organized, which was clearly abnormal.

A family from Tianmu Sea accidentally discovered this tigertooth ape world years ago, and at that time, there were many powerful tigertooth apes. Master Daozhen personally led Herr Wanzhan and others here to slay all the formidable tigertooth apes and seize all the spiritual materials.

After that, Master Daozhen no longer bothered with this place, and periodically, the Herr Family would come to raid and clean out the strong tigertooth apes before leaving it alone again. So many from Tianmu Sea had come here, but most were for cultivation, as there weren’t many spiritual materials left, and no one dared to capture tigertooth apes for sale. If the Herr Family found out, they’d be in big trouble.

Crimson Flame had come several times himself for training and was very familiar with the situation in the tigertooth ape world.

There were many tigertooth apes here, but they were very scattered, independent, and self-sufficient, with nearly a hundred tribes distributed across the alien world. There was no nation, not to mention any powerful tribes that could rally and lead major tribes.

Zhong Zhiyong had also heard about this situation; the intelligence of tigertooth apes was not high, lacking human civilization, more akin to primitive people from prehistoric times.

So now, with so many tigertooth apes, they were clearly very organized, which greatly surprised Crimson Flame and Zhong Zhiyong.

Ding Fan reacted quickly, immediately releasing his flying divine sword, gripping Herr Rufeng and Zhao Xiner as they flew onto the sword. Ye Li, Crimson Flame, and Zhong Zhiyong also released their divine soldier pellets at the first moment, coldly glancing downward.

"Why? What’s with Ding Fan’s divine weapon looking like this?"

Herr Rufeng, seeing Ding Fan’s divine sword with a green glow beneath his feet, looked with curious big eyes at the Sirius totem on it, and Zhao Xiner had long noticed it too, equally surprised.

"Wow wow wow~"

Below, the tigertooth apes let out strange cries, nearby ones pulled out bone spurs from their backs and threw them into the sky.

These bone spurs were clearly unique treasures of the tigertooth apes, moving fast and piercing through space with sharp shrieks, creating a spectacular scene that felt like a thousand arrows shot simultaneously, suffocating.

This small means posed no pressure and posed no threat to anyone; Ding Fan and the others didn’t move. Crimson Flame’s divine soldier pellet flashed, releasing True Insight, suppressing space within a kilometer. All the bone spurs remained motionless.

"Zhong Zhiyong, scatter the tigertooth apes!"

Ding Fan waved his hand, and Zhong Zhiyong began to move, the inheritance seal on his forehead lighting up, flames shooting all over, with Crimson Flame cooperating to lessen Heaven and Earth’s Momentum, igniting the flames instantly.

"Woohoo..."

Many tigertooth apes hit by the flames immediately howled in pain, rolling on the ground. Many were hit in the chest by the flames, burning a large hole in their bodies, and some were hit in the head by the flames and died instantly.

Adult tigertooth apes were comparable in strength to the Fourth Level of the Divine Realm, strong tigertooth apes comparable to the Fifth Level, and the most formidable could only reach the Fifth Level Peak of the Divine Realm, which allowed Master Daozhen to sweep through the entire tigertooth ape world.
