Chapter 499: Chapter 281: Golden Crow True Flame, Wei Fan and I Are Brothers

[After a year of cultivation, your Martial King cultivation is completely exposed, and you feel a vague unease. If the Saint Masters of the Profound Crane Sect or Guangling Sect come with holy soldiers, the Human King Bell may not fully protect you. You begin cultivating the Human King Bell, hoping it will transform again, but after a year, it shows no sign of change.]

[After ten thousand years of cultivation, you diligently refine the Human King Bell year after year, and its power increases slightly.]

[After a hundred thousand years of cultivation...]

The cultivation poured out like flowing water, and soon the power Wei Fan added exceeded one hundred thousand years, but the Human King Bell remained the same, with its power pitifully enhanced.

On the bell’s surface, dragons swim, tigers roam, and a three-legged golden crow spreads its wings, as if the Human King Bell is a world to them.

Wei Fan was somewhat puzzled; at this point, whether the three-legged golden crow or the dragon and tiger souls, they seem to have mere forms without even the slightest spiritual intelligence.

On the bell, they seem as though living creatures that can wander and run, but Wei Fan has always felt they lack their own wisdom.

After one hundred and fifty thousand years, the Human King Bell remained unchanged, with only its lightning symbols deepened.

Two hundred thousand years! 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

Two hundred fifty thousand years!

Three hundred thousand years!

...

Wei Fan could still hold his composure, because according to past experience, the Human King Bell’s next transformation required at least five hundred thousand years of cultivation.

Moreover, ordinary cultivation nearing a million years, if five hundred thousand isn’t enough, then a million, and if a million isn’t enough, he’d continue killing, sweeping away the demon fiends in the Heaven-Supporting Demon King’s territory.

However, his prediction wasn’t wrong; soon the Human King Bell underwent a real transformation, the tiger soul, dragon soul, and three-legged golden crow simultaneously fell into slumber, and silver-white lightning symbols scattered, transforming into a massive thunder pervading the Human King Bell.

Wei Fan gazed at the panel:

[At four hundred thousand years, the tiger soul, dragon soul, and three-legged golden crow began to sleep, lightning symbols vanished, and silver thunder covered the Human King Bell.]

[At four hundred twenty thousand years of cultivation, Dao Marks appeared on the bell’s surface, naturally merging with heaven and earth, seemingly evolving into something more wondrous, you focus without distraction, closely observing the process.]

[At four hundred fifty thousand years of cultivation, the Human King Bell produced more mysterious and unfathomable Dao Marks, beginning to autonomously evolve into an array...]

Rumble... Rumble...

A deafening noise echoed within his heart spirit, as a terrifying pressure descended from above, seemingly intent on crushing his primordial spirit.

Wei Fan couldn’t help but tremble all over, with the remaining stone slab cracking.

He looked up, and beyond the endless starry sky, Qi Daozhen’s Dao was shaking, releasing an unbearable oppressive aura.

In an instant, the Human King Bell’s autonomous array evolution seemed to slow down, no longer as fast as before.

"Is it influenced by the Human King Bell’s evolution?"

Wei Fan frowned slightly.

Large chunks of Qi Daozhen’s Dao were collapsing, impacting all Martial Kings of the wilderness.

On the surface, the situation looked about the same as before, with Dao Collapse accelerating.

But in previous accelerations, Qi Daozhen’s Dao never showed such vibrations.

Moreover, today’s Dao Collapse acceleration had already ended, and it shouldn’t manifest under normal circumstances until tomorrow.

Wei Fan didn’t know if it was related to changes in the Human King Bell, but his spiritual sense told him it was. As the controller of the Human King Bell, he felt it was now autonomously evolving an array while seeming to wrestle with some colossal entity.

The unbearable pressure transmitted to him, making him almost vomit blood, and his primordial spirit suffered immensely.

"Not good, wasn’t today’s Dao Collapse acceleration already finished?"

The Saint Master of Guangling Sect vomited a mouthful of blood, his expression dramatically changing.

This pressure was unprecedented, injuring even a character like him, who stood at the pinnacle of wilderness cultivation.

Not only him, but at the same time, the Saint Master of Profound Crane Sect also vomited blood, with his primordial spirit on the verge of splitting, and his aura notably dwindling.

Meanwhile, not far from Profound Crane Sect, the Human Race Martial King Wei Zhenwu likewise vomited blood, his heart and spirit world seemingly sinking into another world, almost shattering his inner mind.

Wei Zhenwu drew a sharp breath: "What is happening, as if to suppress my cultivation to the Second Layer."

It felt as though the heavens and earth didn’t allow Martial King Third Level cultivation experts in the wilderness, seeking to knock him down to Martial King Second Layer.

From power to heart spirit and will oppression, the discomfort was akin to bearing the weight of Mount Tai.

"Pfft..."

Feng Hua spewed a mouthful of blood, her face utterly ashen, and soon her aura began to rapidly decline.

Feng Hua’s expression drastically changed: "Not good, my cultivation has been suppressed to Martial King Third Layer!"

Under the influence of Dao Collapse, currently in the wilderness, whether human or demon fiend, could only cultivate to Martial King Third Layer. When she came from the outside, her cultivation was Martial King Seventh Layer, suppressed to Martial King Fifth Layer.

With Martial King Fifth Layer cultivation, as long as no holy soldiers emerged, she could freely traverse the wilderness, without concern.

But now her Martial King Fifth Layer cultivation fell again, suppressed to the same level as the strongest beings in the wilderness, only Martial King Third Layer cultivation.

With her cultivation suppressed and being injured, her expression was as grim as could be, meaning she was no longer safe in the wilderness.

In fact, he wasn’t the only one whose cultivation was suppressed. Within the Dao Collapse Barrier, those external powerhouses crossing through also spat blood.

Each and every one of them, whether Demon Fiend or Human Race, had their cultivation suppressed to the Third Layer if they exceeded the Martial King Third Layer.

The stronger one’s cultivation, the more blood they vomited. Several powerhouses almost fainted, only regaining consciousness after spitting out several mouthfuls of blood.

...

In the lair of the Purple-eyed Demon King, Wei Fan was unaware that Feng Hua and a group of external experts had their cultivation suppressed to the Martial King Third Layer. Bearing immense pressure, he continued infusing power into the Human King Bell.

[Five hundred thousand years of power, Dao Mark evolves autonomously, reorders, finally evolving the first Saint-level Array]

Saint-level Array!

Wei Fan’s pupils shrank.

He was actually multitasking, adding power, withstanding the pressure of Dao Collapse, and observing the evolution of the Human King Bell, hoping to comprehend something from it.

But his array level was too low to understand the process of Dao Marks evolving autonomously into an array.

As the first Saint-level Array formed, the Human King Bell within him burst with brilliant golden light, and the bell body trembled madly.

More Dao Marks emerged from the void, imprinting themselves into the bell’s surface.

The originally silver-white thunder now began to change slowly, becoming more violent and gradually aligning its color with the bell’s golden hue.

Finally, the silver-white thunder turned gold, and the scattered thunder symbols reappeared on the bell’s surface. The sleeping Dragon Soul, Tiger Soul, and Three-legged Golden Crow also awakened.

The Dragon Soul and Tiger Soul were entwined with thunder all over, as if bathing in lightning, while the white flames on the Three-legged Golden Crow transformed into gold.

[Seven hundred thousand years of power, the Human King Bell transforms into the Human Emperor Bell, mastering the Golden Crow True Flame and Golden Thunder]

[Human Emperor Bell (Entry Level)]

[Ordinary Power: 260,000 years]

[Martial King Power: None]

Wei Fan excitedly opened his eyes. The Human King Bell had evolved once again; although he miscalculated, needing not five hundred thousand, but seven hundred thousand years of power, he ultimately obtained what he desired.

"Such terrifying flames, such violent thunder!"

With just a slight mental perception, he could sense the terror of these two forces.

They seemed born for destruction, so overwhelming that even he, the controller of the Human Emperor Bell, could barely withstand this aura, and his heart spirit was incinerated upon approach.

Wei Fan was not frightened but pleased; the more terrifying, the better.

With both the Profound Crane Sect and Guangling Sect possibly bringing Holy Soldiers to slay him, he felt uneasy without some trump cards.

"It’s stopped, as I thought, it’s related to the evolution of the Human King Bell!"

Wei Fan looked up at the sky. As he stopped adding power, the Human Emperor Bell returned to calm, Qi Daozhen’s Dao no longer trembled, the accelerated Dao Collapse began to normalize, and the terrifying pressure dissipated significantly.

"Indeed, under the Dao Collapse, the Wilderness only allows powerhouses up to the Martial King Third Layer to appear."

"Although the Human Emperor Bell isn’t a being, the Dao Marks of the Human Emperor Bell must integrate with heaven and earth, naturally involving the Dao, so it’s no wonder they clash."

"In the external world, the Human Emperor Bell’s evolution might not require this much power!"

With the Dao Collapse accelerating over the past few days, the Dao in heaven and earth became increasingly difficult to sense. In just a few days, the pressure on Martial Kings nearly doubled. Wei Fan estimated that at this rate, it would almost be impossible for the Wilderness to produce anyone beyond the Martial King Third Layer, and continuing like this, even Martial Kings would cease to appear.

"King Wei Wu!"

Shentu Bao led a group of Dragon Kingdom soldiers to this place. The lair of the Purple-eyed Demon King was allocated to the Dragon Kingdom as it was the most abundant in heaven and earth essence qi in the territory. Now they arrived here to establish a great city for the Human Race.

"We are old acquaintances, just call me Wei Fan or Brother Wei!"

Wei Fan stepped forward, seeing many familiar faces, including Huo Tianzheng, Situ Feng, You Qingfeng, and Pei Shinan. He greeted each one.

"Did you see? That’s Wei Fan. We’re brothers. Back then, he was just a little arrest officer in Yun City. It was Xuerong and I who recognized his talent, guiding him to the Demon Suppression Bureau, taking him from Yun City to become a Demon Suppression Guard, leading to the King Wei Wu who now shakes the Wilderness!"

In the army, Ning Xuan was boasting to his teammates about his relationship with Wei Fan.

As a friend of Wei Fan and a native of Su City, after Long Jianying became the Emperor, he gave special treatment to people like them.

Including him, Li Fengyi, Su Xuerong, and Hu Qing, they were all transferred to the Capital City for development. Now he had reached Acupoint Opening Seventh Layer, becoming a Golden-clothed Demon Suppression Guard, leading a Demon Suppression team as a captain, taking charge independently.

"The captain is amazing, being friends with King Wei Wu!"

Upon hearing this, Ning Xuan felt surrounded by astonished gazes. He thought that there hadn’t been much luck in his life, except for knowing Wei Fan.

Li Fengyi, donned in a captain’s armor, walked over and glared at Ning Xuan: "You’re courting death again, boasting in public. If you’re not afraid of being captured by Demon Fiends to threaten Wei Fan, just keep talking!"

She had become a Celestial Martial Artist, a captain in the Demon Suppression Bureau, commanding seven or eight Demon Suppression teams.

Ning Xuan showed a sheepish expression: "He is already a Martial King powerhouse, and even the Purple-eyed Demon King has been slain, who would dare provoke him now?"

"King Wei Wu is coming this way!" someone suddenly shouted.

The crowd parted to both sides, and Wei Fan was seen walking over with a smile: "Fengyi, Brother Ning, Xuerong, long time no see!"

Li Fengyi froze, her serious face immediately softened.
