Peerless Battle Spirit
chapter-1618

Thud!

It felt like a bell had rung.

Following it, a shocking absorbing force burst out of Qin Nan's body that was now like a deep abyss, drawing the remaining formidable power of the golden clouds in the distance toward him.

In just three breaths, it had absorbed all of the energy.

Every bone inside his body started to evolve shockingly. The purple runes covering them suddenly emitted wisps of Dao glow.

"Dao...Dao Runes?"

Qin Nan was astounded.

Only those that had achieved the Dao Realm were able to control the Dao glow and unleash the Dao Runes.

Even though he was currently in the Greater Success Stage of the Dao Realm, it did not necessarily mean his flesh would possess the Dao Runes too.

"Hang on, these Dao Runes possess the intent of the Divine God of Battle, it's the Divine God of Battle's Dao Runes!"

Qin Nan was dazzled as he realized the truth behind it.

Since he had merged with the Divine God of Battle's flesh, his body, in essence, was no longer the same too.

The will of the Divine God of Battle once stopped him when he was trying to practice the True Scripture of Sky Taihuang.

And now, the Dao Runes of the Divine God of Battle had appeared. Didn't it already prove what he speculated before, that the Divine God of Battle had already left him his Dao?

The Dao of the Divine God of Battle?

"It's highly possible!"

Qin Nan inhaled deeply with golden flames burning in his eyes.

If it was as he had thought, it would be a piece of great news for him.

Even though different Dao had different ranks and their own strengths, wouldn't the Dao of the Divine God of Battle be stronger than ordinary Dao?

Qin Nan soon calmed his thoughts.

It was still too early to feel so excited.

"Forget it, I'll check out my current flesh first."

The thought crossed Qin Nan's mind. He quickly threw a fist forward.

A strong might burst forward and shattered the clouds in the distance. However, the Dao Runes of the Divine God of Battle seemed to be restricted by a seal the moment he threw his fist forward. The runes were unable to unleash their power.

His punch still had the strength of the fourth-layer Heaven God Realm.

"I guess I'll have to wait until I ascend as an immortal."

Qin Nan came to a conclusion. He clenched his fists subconsciously.

There existed many barricades and difficulties in the path of cultivation. Currently, his greatest barricade was his ascension!

Buzz.

The Ownerless Heaven Pattern in Qin Nan's Divine Sense shuddered.

"What just happened?"

Qin Nan was startled. He closed his eyes and observed. A while later, he glanced to the end of the clouds with a confused look.

Something ahead is summoning the Ownerless Heaven Pattern?

"An existence that can trigger a reaction from the Ownerless Heaven Pattern is surely nothing ordinary. Senior Bliss Immortal Emperor did warn me not to wander around, and I know he's right..."

The thought crossed his mind, yet before he could organize his thoughts. He rose to his feet and activated the power of his eyes as he headed forward.

It was unlikely he could achieve greatness if he was worrying too much!

The clouds seemed perfectly calm, but Qin Nan did not dare to lower his guard. He was being extremely cautious with every step he took.

"I'm almost at the end!"

Half an hour later, Qin Nan let out a relieved sigh when he saw the sight before him.

The pressure he felt from the brief journey was stronger than taking on a few cultivators of the same level.

He continued forward, and as he set his foot on the last piece of cloud, an unexpected change took place!

The cloud vanished as if it was a mere illusion.

A strong gravity started pulling his foot. He tried to stabilize himself with the godly force, but it was as if a giant hand was grabbing his figure and pulling him down.

BANG!

Before Qin Nan could hear the rapid whoosh clearly, he felt like he had just been struck by an enormous force. He immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Will of destruction!"

Qin Nan withheld the pain and immediately executed the move.

However, as he came to his senses, there was no sign of danger around him.

"I guess I'm safe for now..."

Qin Nan came to a realization. As he looked around him, his eyes widened.

He noticed that he was standing on a crimson-red dojo.

The dojo was not huge, covering a circumference of a thousand zhang, and parts of it had broken into pieces.

On each piece lied three to four corpses that still had an icy aura even after they were dead for many years.

Most importantly, besides the corpses lied a crystal stone, perfectly round and dull, with the size of half a palm.

Even after ten thousand years, the crystal stone was still blue, and was emitting a faint Dao intent.

The crystal was a Dao Crystal that only a person that had achieved the Greater Success Stage of the Dao Realm could refine!

"Four of the corpses have a Dao Crystal beside them. I wonder who they are, and what level of cultivation they possess when they die?"

"On top of that, if the other corpses were in a fight against people that possessed the Dao Crystals, that means..."

A chill ran down Qin Nan's spine. His hair immediately stood on its end.

What kind of intense battle had taken place on this little dojo?

"This place...is a place of misery outside the law!"

A rotten, hoarse voice suddenly appeared.

Qin Nan was taken by surprise. He glanced around him and realized that it was a boulder talking to him.

The boulder, three-zhang tall, was standing at the end of the dojo. Its surface was fully covered with sword marks. It was dark, crimson-red, and was difficult to notice it without taking a closer look.

"Place of misery outside the law? What do you mean by that? Who are you? Are you the one that summoned me here?"

Qin Nan tensed and asked the four questions in a row.

"I was right! I was right! You...you have the aura of the Immortals!" The boulder's voice suddenly turn high-spirited as he exclaimed, "HAHA, the aura of the Immortals!"

The boulder burst out laughing and emitted a tremendous glow. It then sprang into the distance at a shocking pace and disappeared.

Qin Nan was stunned.

What exactly was that strange boulder?

How did it notice the aura of the Divine God of Battle?

"It was so quick at running away. I was thinking of asking it what it meant by the Immortals."

Qin Nan collected his thoughts and shook his head. He glanced at the dull Dao Crystals on the ground.

"Can I refine them?"

Qin Nan proceeded to verify his thought.

These Dao Crystals were incredibly rare. Only a few among the countless cultivators of the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm were able to produce them.

BANG!

A strong glow rose into the sky in the distance.

A skeleton that had lost its head, an arm, and a leg suddenly rose to its foot, holding a rotten, giant saber in its hand.

"Kill!"

A shocking murderous intent was locked onto Qin Nan.

The skeleton immediately dashed forward like a phantom. It leapt into the air and summoned ten mountains of saber slashing forward at Qin Nan with an overwhelming aura.
