Chapter 715: Fracture Ninth Peak, Fiendgods Secret Technique
Within the Xuan Yin Treasure, day and night alternated.
Inside a slightly rundown thatched cottage, a white-robed youth sat cross-legged on the couch, surrounded by white mist, refining the power of the Feather Ascension Pill.
The white-robed youth’s expression was cold and stern, his robes fluttering without wind, and his black hair slightly rising with his growing momentum.
Two Feather Ascension Pills, one Fate Immortal Dragon Pearl, and countless other expensive pills and Dao Crystals...
With Ouyang Nuan’s funds, Ning Fan purchased enough items to enhance his cultivations. He was confident that within a month, he could reach the peak of the Ninth Heavenly Layer of the Void Fragmentation Realm!
By Ning Fan’s nature, he disdained relying on others to enhance his strength.
But the current situation was special, and it was not a time to be caught up in trivialities.
After Wu Chen departed, Ning Fan inquired about the situation of the recruitment ceremony from a young boy serving in the Slaughter Pavilion.
This inquiry caused Ning Fan to be secretly shocked!
Most Masters of the Slaughter Hall were from the Slaughter Blood Realm, and Masters outside found it difficult to join the Slaughter Hall.
Every thousand years, the Slaughter Hall would hold a recruitment ceremony to recruit one disciple from the outside.
Every recruitment ceremony saw thousands of Eastern Heaven’s cultivators wishing to join the Slaughter Hall.
The criteria for recruiting from the Slaughter Hall is extremely stringent. To participate in the recruitment ceremony, one must meet at least two standards.
First, possess cultivations above the Void Fragmentation. Second, bone age must not exceed 30,000 years!
Above the Four Heavens, Masters in the Void Fragmentation or Void Refinement realm with bone ages under 20,000 years are considered young cultivators.
According to a generation every 20,000 years, participants in every recruitment ceremony include not only this generation of Eastern Heaven’s elite but the previous generation as well.
Ning Fan had self-awareness.
In terms of cultivation aptitude, he cultivated with three bloodlines, possessing ancestral blood of two clans and king beasts’ blood. Throughout Eastern Heaven, no one of this or the previous generation could compare.
However, in terms of Cultivation Realm, he might not stand at the peak amongst cultivators with a bone age of 30,000 years, as his bone age was just over a thousand years.
Within the Eastern Heaven Immortal World, though rare, there indeed were those who became Immortal within 30,000 years.
The Northern Heaven’s elite—’Emperor Xi’ Ximen Ye achieved the Void Fragmentation at a bone age of 2,000 years, with cultivation talent ranking him among the top four of this Northern Heaven’s generation.
However, his cultivation was not the highest for this generation in Northern Heaven. Only his aptitude was celebrated due to the short cultivation period.
If Ning Fan wished to obtain the Eternal Jade, the first step was to stand out among tens of thousands of Eastern Heaven’s elites under 30,000 years old, and become the first in the recruitment ceremony!
Only then could he join the Slaughter Hall! After all, the Slaughter Hall recruited only the strongest outsider every thousand years!
These tens of thousands of elites were all Void Fragmentation cultivators, including Loose Immortals, and potentially Fate Immortals too.
According to the young boy, currently, within Eastern Heaven, there were seven Fate Immortals with bone ages not over 30,000 years,
Four of whom had deep backgrounds and would not forsake their allegiances to join the Slaughter Hall.
Only three were without significant backgrounds and had the desire to join the Slaughter Hall, possibly participating in this Slaughter Hall recruitment ceremony.
These three were all at the early Human Profound Life Immortal stage, representing the previous generation of Eastern Heaven’s elites!
Within ten years, it was impossible for Ning Fan to become an Immortal, as his comprehension of the Dao of Life and Death was not yet complete.
Achieving Immortality relied on enlightenment, not a process achievable overnight, nor one that time acceleration could hasten.
Before the comparison, Ning Fan could at most elevate his cultivation to the peak of the Void Fragmentation Realm.
By then, with the demonic thoughts within and the Sun Moon Monument Divine Power, Ning Fan might contend with several Fate Immortal elites...
As days passed, Ning Fan’s Mana increased at a terrifying speed.
hundred thousand Yuanhui, 700 hundred thousand Yuanhui, 800 hundred thousand Yuanhui...
When the Mana exceeded ten million Yuanhui, Ning Fan was astonished to find that Mana could no longer be accurately measured.
Although it could not be precisely measured, Ning Fan could still feel his Mana continuously increasing.
"Mana becomes immeasurable!"
A glint flashed in Ning Fan’s eyes as he seemed to understand something.
From Jiazi magic power to yuan magic power was a qualitative change in Mana.
From measurable to immeasurable Mana was yet another qualitative change!
The Mana of the first step of cultivation was like grains of sand in a desert, countable no matter how numerous.
The Mana of the Second Step was like droplets of water in a lake. These droplets, large or small, could no longer have their number accurately designated.
But as the pond’s water increased, it was discernible.
Ning Fan’s cultivations continued to rise...
Fracture Eighth, crushing the nine, Fracture ninth peak!
Within a month, Ning Fan broke through realms twice consecutively, reaching the peak of the ninth, with his Mana unable to increase further.
Twice breaking through naturally involved facing the Emperor Lightning Tribulation twice.
The Imperial Qi Flying Dragon had grown nine zhang long, with the imperial majesty of one Imperial Qi equating to others’ ninety!
A month later, Ning Fan left the Xuan Yin Treasure, his aura greatly changed.
It became elusive, immeasurable, faintly carrying a celestial air untouched by the mundane.
"Little Ball, look quickly, your father is not far from becoming an Immortal... in perhaps one or two hundred years, he will achieve Immortality."
Ning Fan left the Xuan Yin Treasure and released Ouyang Nuan back to the outside world.
Ouyang Nuan caressed Little Maoqiu in her arms, her eyes filled with laughter, in high spirits, she said with a beaming smile.
The only reason she’s happy is because she knows Ning Fan hasn’t treated her as an outsider and used her money to buy expensive pills to boost his cultivation.
From now on, traces of her will remain in his life.
Even if she eventually dies, he will never forget...
"Your complexion seems a bit off..." Ning Fan looked at Ouyang Nuan’s increasingly pale face, furrowing his brows.
"You’re mistaken, my complexion is great... Isn’t it, Little Ball?"
Ouyang Nuan nonchalantly teased Little Ball, brushing aside the matter, not wanting Ning Fan to worry about her health.
"... Is that so."
Ning Fan said no more, and similarly casually held the hand with which Ouyang Nuan teased Little Ball, channeling a thread of mana into her body.
Ouyang Nuan’s fragrant shoulders trembled slightly, but she didn’t withdraw her hand, a sweet smile hanging from her lowered eyelids.
"Cough cough... It seems I’ve returned at the wrong time."
A ghost-faced man appeared out of nowhere in the inner pavilion of the Slaughter Pavilion, dusty and reeking of blood, a trace of fatigue in his eyes.
"Big Brother Wu, you’re back..." Ouyang Nuan quickly pulled her hand back, her ears turning red.
"Brother Wu, are you injured?" Ning Fan asked with furrowed brows.
Ning Fan didn’t know that in the past month, Wu Chen had visited seven or eight middle-level star domains, just to buy enough Star Gate jade slips.
Some Fate Immortal forces were unwilling to sell the jade slips at a low price, so Wu Chen directly resorted to force, buying the slips forcefully.
Even so, he only procured 150,000 to 160,000 Star Gate jade slips, still half short of enough for Ning Fan to head to the Blood Sea Star Realm.
As the month was nearing its end, Wu Chen simply headed to an upper starfield and forced a Crossing Truth Realm power to sell him jade slips at a low price, but they were naturally unwilling.
After a fierce battle with that Crossing Truth Realm True Immortal, he ultimately emerged victorious, though also slightly injured.
However, with this battle, he finally acquired a sufficient number of Star Gate jade slips.
"Just minor injuries, there are 350,000 Star Gate jade slips in this storage pouch, enough for your needs."
Wu Chen waved his hand, indicating the injuries were minor, chuckled heartily, and tossed a heavy storage pouch to Ning Fan.
Ning Fan took the storage pouch, gave Wu Chen a deep look, and stored all the jade slips away without a word of thanks.
Gratitude is best kept silently in the heart, waiting for the chance to repay in the future.
"The Star Gate jade slips have been bought. We just need to acquire the Spirit Planting Scripture, and then you can set off for the Blood Sea Star Realm. Let’s go, I’ll accompany you to ask Soul Heaven Lord for the Spirit Planting Scripture, I’m sure he won’t dare refuse!"
Wu Chen smiled domineeringly, stamped his foot on the ground, and suddenly, a blood-red lotus pedestal rose from the ground.
"Slaughter Lotus! This is a True Grade flying spirit equipment from the Slaughter Hall! Its speed rivals a Crossing Truth Realm True Immortal, and it doesn’t consume any mana while flying!"
Ouyang Nuan exclaimed softly.
"A remarkable flying spirit equipment!" Ning Fan nodded in praise.
"Haha, I exchanged it in the hall using slaughter value. Brother Ning, once you join the Slaughter Hall, you too can complete missions for slaughter value and use it to exchange for what you desire!"
Wu Chen laughed out loud, stepped onto the lotus pedestal, which immediately transformed into a flash of blood-red light, carrying the three people away from the Slaughter Pavilion, disappearing without a trace.
Sky Morning Star, Empty Soul Mountain, Lord Soul’s Camp.
This star is a middle-level cultivation star occupied by Soul Heaven Lord, one of the Guchen Ten Heavenly Lords.
Soul Heaven Lord, an Early Human Profound Fate Immortal, is currently seated in the grand hall of the camp, looking coldly at the group of visitors below.
This group consists of only seven people, all dressed in blue Sword Guards, carrying blue Sword Boxes, each of them at the Loose Immortal Realm.
Though none of the seven have the cultivation realm of a Fate Immortal, their expressions remain exceptionally arrogant in front of soul Heaven Lord.
"Mysterious Sword Sect cultivators, what brings you to old me?" Soul Heaven Lord asked coldly.
Mysterious Sword Sect, a Fate Immortal power of the Edgeless Star Domain in the Eastern Heaven Immortal World.
The Sect Master of the Mysterious Sword Sect is an old expert at the Human Profound Peak, who makes even Soul Heaven Lord wary.
Though he fears the Sect Master’s reputation, he dislikes the arrogance of the seven Loose Immortal cultivators from the Mysterious Sword Sect.
"Our Sect Master is willing to offer two billion Dao Crystal for Heaven Lord to kill two people!" The leader among the seven Loose Immortal Sword bandits stepped forward and handed a heavy storage pouch to Soul Heaven Lord.
"Two billion? Who do they want dead?" Soul Heaven Lord’s cold expression softened as he squinted slightly, using his spirit sense to scan the storage pouch without revealing a hint of emotion.
Inside the pouch were indeed two billion Dao Crystals.
Soul Heaven Lord couldn’t help but be tempted.
He was in need of something to break through his realm, but that item was costly. With these two billion Dao Crystals, he could definitely purchase it and advance his cultivation realm to the Human Profound Middle Stage.
"The two people Heaven Lord needs to eliminate are currently in the Ancient Chen Star Domain, one is Daoist Qianqiu, the other is a white-haired female cultivator accompanying him at Fragmentation Four..."
"Daoist Qianqiu? Is there such a figure among the Eastern Heaven’s Fate Immortals?" Soul Heaven Lord raised an eyebrow.
In his subconscious, anyone worthy of two billion Dao Crystals for their head must at least be a Human Profound Fate Immortal.
In his impression, there seemed to be no notable Daoist Qianqiu among the Eastern Heaven’s Fate Immortals.
"Heaven Lord, Daoist Qianqiu isn’t a Fate Immortal, but a Void Fragmentation cultivator, a notorious Evil Sect leader worth three million." A Loose Immortal bandit secretly transmitted to soul Heaven Lord.
"Just a Void Fragmentation Evil Sect leader worth three million?"
Soul Heaven Lord was initially stunned, then smirked with disdain, addressing the seven Mysterious Sword cultivators.
"Very well, old me agrees to the task. Within three days, those two will certainly perish in the Ancient Chen Star Domain. Does your Sect Master require their heads?"
"No need! Just ensure it’s done discreetly. Farewell!"
The seven Mysterious Sword Loose Immortals bowed coldly, turned around, and left.
As he watched the seven depart, Soul Heaven Lord’s eyes flashed with a cold gleam, letting out a disdainful snort.
"Hmph, hiding one’s head and showing one’s tail."
With Soul Heaven Lord’s keen eyesight, it was natural for him to have long seen that the seven Mysterious Sword loose immortals were merely puppets, not actual living beings.
The person commissioning him for this assassination was most likely a Fate Immortal puppet master hiding his identity. To avoid revealing his true self, he sent the puppets instead.
The Soul Heaven Lord was, after all, an old monster who had been active in the bandit path for countless years. How could he not see that it was not the Mysterious Sword Sect wanting to kill Daoist Qianqiu, but someone else...
As for who, he did not care.
Why they wanted to kill Daoist Qianqiu, he also did not care.
Getting paid for solving problems for others, that was enough.
"Qin Hu, I’ll give you half a day to find out the whereabouts of Daoist Qianqiu and the white-haired female cultivator. When the time comes, I will personally take action to kill these two people!"
"Yes!"
With Soul Heaven Lord’s command, a silver-armored brawny man promptly hurried away to investigate the whereabouts of Daoist Qianqiu.
Just a two hours later, the silver-armored man returned to the grand hall, with an extremely strange expression, his whole body trembling slightly, looking at Soul Heaven Lord hesitantly.
"Found Daoist Qianqiu’s whereabouts so soon?" Soul Heaven Lord was slightly surprised.
"No... Daoist Qianqiu came to us himself. He is currently outside Empty Soul Mountain, and the white-haired woman is with him..."
"Oh? Interesting, just as I wanted to kill him, he delivered himself here! Good, good, good!" Soul Heaven Lord was overjoyed, but suddenly remembered something and asked another question.
"Why did this person come to my Empty Soul Mountain?"
"Replying to Heaven Lord, this person came to demand the Spirit Planting Scripture from you... He said that you only have ten breaths to hand it over..."
"Oh? A mere void fragmentation ant, dares to come to my Empty Soul Mountain, threaten me, and rob my belongings?" Soul Heaven Lord seemed to hear something unbelievable, then laughed heartily moments later.
"Having cultivated for 300,000 years, I have seen countless arrogant people, but such arrogance as this one’s, is indeed the first I have seen! A mere void fragmentation fledgling with a bounty of thirty million, dares come to Empty Soul Mountain to threaten me, interesting, very interesting! This child, I’ve decided to kill!"
Soul Heaven Lord’s eyes darkened abruptly, and he stood up violently, about to step out of the hall to kill Ning Fan, when he was suddenly stopped by the silver-armored man, who was pale-faced and persuaded him.
"Heaven Lord, this person... is untouchable! The Spirit Plant Scripture must be handed over to him!"
"What do you mean! Why is this person untouchable!" Soul Heaven Lord felt an inexplicable unease rising in his heart.
"Because... because..." the silver-armored man, usually murderous as he was, was now shaking and couldn’t utter a complete sentence.
At that moment, a cold, vicious laugh with overwhelming evil qi spread across the entire Empty Soul Mountain!
"Hmph, Soul Heaven! This seat has given you ten breaths to hand over the Spirit Planting Scripture. Now that the time is up, you haven’t respectfully handed it over. Are you forcing this seat to slaughter Empty Soul Mountain?"
This voice, domineering beyond measure!
This voice, powerful, not to be questioned!
This voice carried endless murderous intent; a cold snort spread out, and countless void refinement, low-level void fragmentation cultivators’ bodies exploded into a bloody mist!
The screams spread instantly across Empty Soul Mountain!
The cold snort entered Soul Heaven Lord’s ears, and he felt as if his divine sense was shattered, causing him intense pain, coughing blood uncontrollably, his face turning ashen, his breathing faint!
Unable to care for the blood at his lips, he fled the grand hall without hesitation, flying to the peak of Empty Soul Mountain, his eyes filled with deep terror as he looked at the ghost-faced figure standing on the blood-colored lotus seat!
"Lord Pavilion Master, please calm down! Please calm down! I will promptly send someone to fetch the Spirit Planting Scripture from the treasury and deliver it to the Lord Pavilion Master, without error!"
Soul Heaven Lord was extremely flustered and more panic filled his heart!
He couldn’t have imagined that the ghost-faced Pavilion Master of Immortal Soul Star would descend upon Sky Morning Star!
Why did he come here? Wait, he came with these two people!
Soul Heaven Lord stared dumbfounded at Ning Fan and Ouyang Nuan on the lotus seat, rubbing his eyes in disbelief!
These two were the people those ’cultivators’ from Mysterious Sword Sect commissioned him to kill!
"My mood right now is terrible! Because I just inadvertently heard some news outside your Empty Soul Mountain. It appears you were hired by someone to deal with my friends!"
Wu Chen’s icy voice entered Soul Heaven Lord’s ears, nearly causing him to collapse in fright.
Friends!
How could it be! The people he intended to kill were friends of this ghost-faced Pavilion Master!
How daring was he, to think of killing the ghost-faced Pavilion Master’s friends!
Wu Chen’s terror he had witnessed firsthand!
Wu Chen had reigned over the Ancient Chen Star Domain for tens of thousands of years.
Tens of thousands of years ago, the ruler of Ancient Chen Star Domain was not the current Guchen Ten Heavenly Lords, but a Crossing Truth Realm True Immortal bandit!
That True Immortal bandit had 47 Fate Immortals under his command.
But on the day Wu Chen arrived at Ancient Chen Star Domain, he slaughtered that True Immortal alone and wiped out the 47 Fate Immortals.
On that day, Ancient Chen Star Domain ran rivers of blood, with at least a hundred million falling bandits!
From then on, Wu Chen reigned over Immortal Soul Star, and the entire Ancient Chen Star Domain remained quiet for tens of thousands of years...
Not to mention Wu Chen was a member of Slaughter Hall, the Pavilion Master of Slaughter Pavilion, a ghost-faced assassin.
Just speaking of his nearly ruthless battle record was enough to instill fear in all bandits of Ancient Chen Star Domain.
If Soul Heaven Lord had known Ning Fan and Ouyang Nuan were Wu Chen’s friends, even if those people offered him 20 billion Dao Crystals, 2000 billion Dao Crystals, he would not have accepted the commission!
This time, he was in deep trouble...
"You are a descendant of the Soul Clan; you must have a natal Soul Jade, right?" Wu Chen’s voice was cold.
"I am willing to offer my Soul Jade, for mercy and survival!"
Soul Heaven Lord sighed deeply, gritted his teeth, and suddenly slapped his Tian Ling, opening the top of his skull, letting his Spirit escape from it.
His Spirit flickered with an eerie soul light, nearly transparent, holding a piece of purple jade pendant.
Gritting his teeth, he swiftly changed his finger technique, and the purple jade pendant immediately detached from his Spirit.
In an instant, Lord Soul’s Spirit suddenly withered, and his cultivation began to plummet.
Originally, his cultivation was close to breaking through to the Human Profound Middle Stage, but it rapidly fell, teetering on the brink of dropping to the Human Profound Initial Stage, just a hair’s breadth away from falling to the Void Fragmentation stage...
Stripping the Soul Jade from the Spirit caused considerable damage to him.
But, at this moment, to save his life, he acted decisively and wouldn’t destroy his future for a piece of Soul Jade.
Retracting his Spirit into his body, Lord Soul with a withered breath respectfully handed the Soul Jade to Wu Chen.
Wu Chen looked at the Soul Jade in his hand, nodded satisfied, and handed the jade to Ning Fan.
"Find an opportunity to help Junior Sister refine this jade. Although it can’t extend her lifespan, it can slightly restore her Medicine Soul power, at least she will not be so frail. It’s a pity the Soul Clan has long been exterminated, otherwise with hundreds or thousands of Life Immortal Soul Jades, extending Junior Sister’s life slightly would be feasible..."
As Ning Fan had just taken hold of the Soul Jade, his palm instantly froze into ice.
This Soul Jade is so chilling! Yet within it lies unpredictable soul force, capable of nourishing a cultivator’s Medicine Soul!
Ning Fan’s thoughts moved, and a stream of black demon fire flared up from his palm, slowly melting the ice.
After some thought, Ning Fan temporarily stored the Soul Jade in a jade box.
This item can indeed assist Ouyang Nuan in recovering soul force, but this is absolutely not the time to refine this jade.
Seeing Wu Chen receive the Soul Jade, his anger subsided somewhat, and Lord Soul exhaled a sigh of relief.
It seemed, with Wu Chen having taken the Soul Jade, he would not slaughter the Sky Morning Star.
Before long, a Fragmentation Eight bandit flew nervously to Wu Chen with an old book in hand, presented respectfully.
This book was precisely the "Spirit Planting Scripture," recording the cultivating secret techniques of the Immortal Soul Grass.
Wu Chen browsed through the "Spirit Planting Scripture," confirmed its correctness, and handed it to Ning Fan to store safely.
Then, casting a slightly disdainful gaze towards the southeast direction of Sky Morning Star, his eyes turned cold and said,
"Brother Ning, the one who wants to kill you and your Junior Sister is a newly advanced Human Profound Initial Stage puppet master, accompanied by many fierce Loose Immortal puppets, yet without Life Immortal puppets... Shall I help you eliminate this adversary?"
"No need. If the intruder is merely a newly ascended puppet master, I reckon he won’t be my match."
Ning Fan shook his head. Wu Chen had already assisted him plenty; for matters within his capability, he wouldn’t trouble Wu Chen.
"If that is so, let us part on this star. Take this jade slip, within it is the detailed process of the Slaughter Hall’s Disciple Recruitment Ceremony. The first round of the competition requires submitting a Slaughter Badge, of which there are three types... Never mind, once you have time, read the jade slip, and you should understand. On the way to the Blood Sea Starfield, there are countless badges to collect, I doubt you’ll find it dull."
Wu Chen handed a blood-colored jade slip to Ning Fan, sighing deeply.
"Brother Ning, what I can do for you is only this much. Whether you can successfully join the Slaughter Hall or acquire the Eternal Jade depends on your own abilities. Be cautious on your journey!"
With these words, Wu Chen gave Ning Fan a solemn cupped fist salute.
"Farewell!"
Ning Fan also cupped his fist in return to Wu Chen, turned around, his gaze coldly fixed on the southeast direction of Sky Morning Star, flipped his hand to draw an Ancient Golden Sword, carrying Ouyang Nuan away without looking back.
If time allowed, he wouldn’t mind staying in the Ancient Chen Star Domain and once more drink and discuss Dao with Wu Chen.
Unfortunately, time was slipping away for him.
Within ten years, he must reach the Blood Sea Starfield!
Before heading to the Blood Sea Starfield, there was still a Human Profound Initial Stage puppet master he needed to eliminate!
This person did not possess any Life Immortal puppets; even armed with numerous Loose Immortal puppets, Ning Fan wasn’t afraid!
Now, Ning Fan’s cultivation had reached the peak of the Ninth Heavenly Layer of the Void Fragmentation Realm. With control over demonic thoughts, and skills in Demonization, he could genuinely contend against a Human Profound Initial Stage cultivator!
"Ning Fan, be careful..." Ouyang Nuan said with some concern.
"Rest assured!"
Ning Fan’s ten fingers performed a finger technique, casting the Heaven Prying Rain Technique.
He didn’t unleash this technique to its utmost, merely extending his spirit sense through the rain curtain to a billion miles away.
This distance far surpassed the spirit sense detection range of a Human Profound Initial Stage Life Immortal.
Ning Fan would discover the other’s presence before the other could detect him!
Suddenly, Ning Fan’s eyes turned sharp, transmitting a message to Ouyang Nuan, temporarily placing her and Little Ball into the Yuan Yao World.
Then, his gaze intense, he stepped on the golden light of his sword, charging madly towards a cave dwelling on an abandoned star!
...
On the abandoned star, within a stone cave in a barren mountain.
At the cave entrance, seven sword cultivator puppets stood guard.
Inside the cave, a person dressed in a cyan Danpao, a Human Profound Initial Stage Life Immortal, was sitting cross-legged, fingers weaving techniques, white mist swirling above his head, faintly revealing a phantom lead-colored lotus flower slowly forming.
At the critical moment, the lead-colored lotus suddenly shattered with a bang.
"I never thought the divine ability of Immemorial Gods found by chance would be so difficult to cultivate... What on earth is it missing, which makes it unachievable..."
The Danpao Life Immortal pondered, suddenly his gaze shocked,
"Who is it! Show yourself!"
So absorbed in cultivating the secret technique was he, that he hadn’t noticed the enemy had drawn close to the stone cave!
"Yet again, someone from the Fourth Revolution Dan Refinement Master..."
A chilling voice abruptly echoed from outside the stone cave. (To be continued. If you like this work, you’re welcome to come to Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendations, monthly tickets, your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please read on m.qidian.com.)
