Peerless Battle Spirit
chapter-1003

“Thanks, Brother Qin Nan!”

Chen Buhui said with a determined look.

“Come, let’s go inside the cave.” Qin Nan rose from the ground. Even though he had yet to recover from the injury, it was no longer a big deal for him.

Cave?

Chen Buhui and the others were confused as they followed Qin Nan inside. They were shocked as they went into the cave.

They had witnessed the strength of the forbidding aura with their own eyes, but apart from a few scratches, the cave was perfectly untouched, with the ancient corpse sitting in the same spot, as if nothing had happened.

“As I thought.” Qin Nan’s eyes flickered as he glanced at the scroll, “The characters on the scroll are slowly vanishing. If I’m not mistaken, once the characters completely disappear, we should be able to proceed to the next level.”

The others did see the changes in the characters.

“Maybe this is some sort of a trial?” Chen Buhui said.

“That’s right.” Qin Nan nodded.

The ten red rays, the maps, and everything in the Immortal Demon Cave were all part of the trial, which resulted in a remarkable sequence.

There was no room for error, as it would mean failing the trial.

“The characters should be gone in about three hours. Let’s cultivate for the time being.” Qin Nan said as he sat down on the ground and took out the Levitation Crystal.

Chen Buhui and the others did not waste any further time and began to refine the Majestic Dark Ancient Flower.

“This Levitation Crystal is indeed something, I have to refine it with my blood…”

Qin Nan inspected the Levitation Crystal for a while before dripping a drop of blood onto it, causing it to emit a crimson glow.

A magical force was released from it, which flowed into Qin Nan’s body and merged with the nine Martial Trees.

At that instant, both the trunks, branches, and leaves of his personal Martial Tree and the Divine Battle Trees began to grow.

The secrets of countless Monarch Arts appeared in Qin Nan’s mind.

“How fascinating.”

Qin Nan was overjoyed. He immediately withdrew his thoughts and used the magical force to help him comprehend the Art of Destruction as the Martial Trees were being upgraded.

Time gradually passed. Three hours were gone in the blink of an eye.

During this period, Qin Nan had completely refined the Levitation Crystal, allowing the nine Martial Trees to grow to their limits, which was only a step away from reaching the next level.

As for the Art of Destruction, he was still a final step away from mastering it.

Qin Nan glanced at the others. After refining the Majestic Dark Ancient Flower, their auras had improved significantly as well. He let out a smile and said, “Come, the characters have disappeared.”

Chen Buhui and the others opened their eyes.

At that instant, Xiao Hong suddenly said, “Master, not every expert wants someone to be their successor.”

Chen Buhui and the others were shocked hearing this.

They completely ignored this. There were cases where many experts had baited the geniuses with their succession to devour their bodies, so that they could be reincarnated. Some had even tried to drag the geniuses with them as they were not willing to die in vain.

“Mm, I understand.” Qin Nan straightened his face, but there was no sign of fear in his eyes.

The Half-God Tomb was surely filled with great danger, but at the same time, there were many fortunate encounters waiting to be discovered too.

If he wanted to become stronger, he would not back off even if it meant overcoming mountains of daggers and seas of flames.

Qin Nan glanced at the scroll and dashed into it with a kick, followed by Chen Buhui and the rest.

Whoosh!

They arrived at a different place as if they had just stepped through the entrance to a new world.

“This…”

Qin Nan’s eyes flickered with astonishment as he looked forward.

They were currently at an ancient dojo, filled with rotten corpses. Meanwhile, the surroundings were in utter darkness, as if the place was situated inside the rift, with no sign of life nearby.

“Mas…master, are we lost?” The two hounds stammered.

At that moment, a ripple began to appear in the air on the other side of the dojo.

Four figures slowly appeared from it.

Qin Nan recognized them immediately. They were the core disciples of the Blue City Mountain.

The four core disciples were startled seeing Qin Nan and his crew too, who immediately turned around and checked the surroundings.

Another two ripples appeared, as two groups of people were teleported here, who were the core disciples of the Wuji Alliance and the Sword Sect.

“What is this place?”

“Why are you here too?”

The disciples glanced at one another in alarm.

“They must have discovered the map and passed the trial too, which teleported them to this ancient dojo. That means, this place must be the second trial…” Qin Nan calmly analyzed the situation, but a question surfaced in his mind.

It turned out that the sequence had been carefully planned.

It somehow felt like the owner of the Half-God Tomb was playing a game with them?

Whoosh!

Meanwhile, a fourth group appeared on the dojo.

Qin Nan was stunned as he turned around, as he did not expect it to be Song Dong and two other core disciples of the Dragon Emperor Clan.

“Qin Nan, how did you pass the trial?”

Song Dong and his crew were astounded seeing Qin Nan.

Everyone knew that Qin Nan was only ranked three hundred and first on the Monarch Ranking. With his strength, even with the assistance of the monk, there was no way he could pass the trial.

The other three groups of core disciples glanced at each other and whispered among themselves.

“If you can pass the trial, so can we.” Qin Nan let out a calm smile.

“Is that so? Then I shall congratulate you!” Song Dong and his crew uttered a hollow laugh. If they weren’t too unfamiliar with the dojo, they would not mind teaching Qin Nan a lesson right away.

Ding!

A blasting chime could be heard all of a sudden.

The disciples were startled, who immediately raised their heads.

To their surprise, a person in a black robe was floating in the air above the dojo. They could only see a pair of red eyes under the robe.

For some reason, the knowledgeable core disciples could feel a chill traveling down their spines.

Qin Nan frowned. He had detected a strange white glow with his left eye previously.

Was the person in the black robe the transformation of the white glow?

“Hehe, greetings, every genius. I’m jealous of your young and energetic bodies…” The person in the black robe let out a strange chuckle, “Welcome to the Suicide Dojo.”
