496: The Mark of Reincarnation, the Palace of Nine Kings Appears! [Seeking Follow-up Reading]

"It's that Guardian," Jiang Xue's expression subtly changed upon hearing the voice.

Lin Fan, naturally, was well aware of this. Without any hesitation, he waved his sleeve and, taking the three women with him, shot towards that direction.

Within mere minutes, an isolated peak jutted out. On that mountain peak, a dark figure was kneeling on one knee, roaring towards the sky, with a thick Devilish Qi continuously emanating from his body.

Behind the dark figure, on a large boulder, a small girl in a yellow dress sat somewhat helplessly.

She dangled her snow-white legs, and a ray of light emanated from her body, enveloping the dark figure, while also continuously dispelling the Devilish Qi from his body.

"Yin Yin," Jiang Xue looked at the little girl and waved at her.

"Sister!" The little girl looked up in surprise. Seeing Jiang Xue flying towards her, her big eyes showed delight, and her small body leaped up, directly throwing herself into Jiang Xue's embrace.

This little girl was Jiang Xue's younger sister, Jiang Yinyin, and also the Reincarnation body of the Lord of Life and Death.

Jiang Xue reached out to catch Jiang Yinyin, smiled slightly, and pointed her slender finger towards Lin Fan's location, "Look who this is?"

Jiang Yinyin followed her gaze and then saw Lin Fan's smiling face. A flicker of thought crossed her big eyes, followed by a surge of joy on her small face, "Big Brother!"

"Yin Yin, long time no see," Lin Fan said, smiling and nodding at Jiang Yinyin's tender call.

Jiang Yinyin happily ran over, her dark eyes filled with joy. At this moment, a gentle breeze blew, ruffling the hair on her forehead, and then, a faint, peculiar Ancestor Symbol appeared in the sight of Lin Fan and the others.

That was... the Reincarnation Ancestor Symbol?

Upon seeing the mark on Jiang Yinyin's forehead, Ling Qingzhu and Ying Huanhuan's expressions subtly changed.

Especially Ying Huanhuan, who felt an inexplicable sense of closeness to Jiang Yinyin.

"You all wait here first," Lin Fan did not mention Jiang Yinyin's status as a Reincarnation at the moment. After instructing them, his figure flickered and landed on the mountain peak.

His gaze fell upon the dark figure shrouded in Devilish Qi. Within the dark figure's pupils, countless fragmented thoughts seemed to be converging. However, no matter how numerous these thoughts were, they shared one common point: guardianship.

"Over these years, the fragmented wills drifting in this space have all merged into his body. He is quite peculiar now; it's hard to say exactly what he is..." Jiang Xue said softly.

Lin Fan nodded slightly, saying nothing more. He clenched his hand, and suddenly, endless thunder diffused from it. The thunder was filled with extremely violent and pure power.

"Whoosh!"

The lightning condensed into a Thunder Palace light orb, which directly rushed into the Guardian's body. Immediately after, crackling lightning arcs emanated from him, and the Devilish Qi spreading over his body was completely dispelled at this moment.

As the Devilish Qi was dispelled, the pain and confusion in the Guardian's eyes gradually faded. Some chaotic intelligence once again converged in his eyes, and finally, he bowed deeply to Lin Fan.

"No need for this," Lin Fan waved his hand, stopping him. He held great respect for these Seniors of the Great Wilderness Sect.

"You all take Yin Yin back a bit," Lin Fan instructed Ling Qingzhu and the two other women, then with a slight thought, he directly mobilized the power of Thunder.

In an instant, endless thunderclouds gathered in the sky above this space. Countless bolts of lightning flashed, encompassing this entire area.

"Rumble!"

Innumerable bolts of thunder poured down madly, all landing on the earth below. That violent and pure power spread out, and the Devilish Qi that had originally permeated the heavens and earth was swept away by the thunder at an astonishing speed.

"Roar!"

Immediately after, a ten-thousand-zhang-large Thunder Dragon drilled out of the thunderclouds, roaring down with bared fangs and claws, finally smashing fiercely onto the earth below.

"Bang!"

The entire space seemed to tremble at this moment. The ground was directly torn open by an enormous, deep chasm.

The depths of the chasm were incomparably dark, as if an extremely evil aura was surging within.

Looking at the dark area filled with evil aura below, Lin Fan's eyes were icy cold. He pointed a finger, and countless bolts of thunder changed direction, overwhelmingly striking towards the depths of the earth.

At this moment, from the depths of the earth, a monstrous evil Devilish Qi suddenly surged, continuously. As the Devilish Qi spread, it directly resisted the violent thunder.

Lin Fan's expression remained unperturbed upon seeing the commotion in the depths of the earth. As his hand gestures changed, the thunderclouds in the sky suddenly converged into one, transforming into a ten-thousand-zhang-large Thunder Sun.

Terrifying thunderous fluctuations, accompanied by a booming sound, spread far and wide, causing this entire space to tremble.

"Go!"

Lin Fan flicked his finger downwards, and the Thunder Sun immediately plummeted, heading straight for the depths of the abyss. Along its path, lightning flashed, as if even space itself was becoming scorching hot.

"Hmph!"

As the Thunder Sun plummeted madly, an extremely cold voice also emanated from the bottom of the abyss.

Immediately, countless Devilish Qi surged, transforming into a ten-thousand-zhang-large Devilish Qi disc.

"Dong!"

The Thunder Sun directly landed on the ten-thousand-zhang Devilish Qi disc. Two incomparably powerful forces erupted simultaneously at this moment, directly and brutally tearing open the already enormous abyss even further. Giant chasms, like a spiderweb, spread across the earth below.

Brilliant lightning flashed madly.

"Crack!"

A crack suddenly appeared on the Devilish Qi disc, and then the crack rapidly spread and expanded.

"Bang!"

With an explosive sound, the Devilish Qi disc exploded on the spot!

However, just as the Devilish Qi disc shattered, another giant demonic hand stretched out from the abyss and punched towards the ten-thousand-zhang Thunder Sun.

"Bang bang!"

The demonic hand and the Thunder Sun collided, and in this space, dull sounds echoed once again.

After a period of stalemate, both ultimately exploded simultaneously, with lightning scattering and demonic blood flying.

"Ah!"

As the demonic hand shattered, a roar of anger mixed with pain echoed from the bottom of the abyss, "Damn it, this is... the Thunder Ancestral Symbol..."

As the voice faded, monstrous Devilish Qi once again surged from the bottom of the abyss, finally sweeping out of the abyss. Within the Devilish Qi, a figure slowly emerged.

And as he stepped out of the black mist, a peculiar expression appeared on his pale and handsome face.

"Thunder Ancestral Symbol? I don't have that on me," Lin Fan shook his head slightly, then looked at the demonic shadow and said indifferently, "I wonder, which one of the Ninth Prince from the Demon Prison are you?"

Lin Fan naturally knew who the other party was, but he was merely putting on a show, and at the same time, it was also a way to ask on behalf of Ling Qingzhu and the others.

"I didn't expect you to know so much about my Demon Prison. It seems there has been some activity outside these past years. Hehe, by my calculations, the time is actually almost ripe," the demonic shadow said, somewhat surprised to hear Lin Fan's words. "This Palace ranks ninth in the Demon Prison."

"The Ninth Prince, huh," Lin Fan smiled faintly and said, "It seems you are gradually breaking free from the Seal laid down by the Seniors of the Great Wilderness Sect back then."

"You want to let the Devilish Qi seep out to inform the people of the Demon Prison of your location, so they can help you escape, right? However, your luck seems to be rather poor." (End of chapter)
