Peerless Battle Spirit
chapter-1967

Qin Nan said, “The Evil Shrine doesn’t sound simple at all.”

Xiao Ling’er was quite speechless after seeing Qin Nan’s reaction, “Of course it’s not simple, rumors say that the Patriarch of the Evil Shrine was once one of the ten great experts of the first continent in the Secondary Lower Realm, the Sacred Emperor Continent. He ascended to the Nine Heavens and achieved an unimaginable height.”

The Canglan Continent was no longer sealed off and restricted by many rules like before. It could now receive the news of other continents in the Secondary Lower Realm, and even the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm.

Qin Nan raised his brows.

The person is from the Nine Heavens?

Didn’t he know Empress Feiyue was from the Canglan Continent?

“Damn it, we were too busy talking to you. We were supposed to look for the treasure!” Chang Le patted himself on the head and said.

Qin Nan smiled, “There’s no treasure here.”

The three immediately gave him a disdainful look. How could there not be any treasure when such shocking rare phenomena took place? Who were you trying to trick?

The three did not waste any more time on Qin Nan. They flew into the mountain, but they soon returned with grim looks in less than a hundred breaths.

They already looked around. The mountain was barren. It did not have any valuable natural resources, let alone some treasure.

“Hang on! Did you take the treasure?”

Chang Qing’s eyes flickered suspiciously as a thought crossed his mind.

Qin Nan did not answer the question. He simply pointed his finger up. A few hundred trees in the distance immediately broke into pieces without leaving the slightest shred behind.

The three were astounded.

Only an authority in the Martial Monarch Realm could possibly do such an astonishing feat!

“Holy crap, I didn’t expect you to be a Martial Monarch. You were good at hiding it!” Chang Le blurted out.

“Isn’t it expected if I’m referred to as the God of Canglan?” Qin Nan shrugged.

The three immediately wore a disdainful look.

The guy was only just an authority in the Martial Monarch Realm. How could he be compared to the God of Canglan?

Qin Nan said, “Where are you going now since you didn’t find any treasure here?”

The three exchanged glances with one another. Xiao Ling’er said, “We came here for a mission. Since we are already done here, we’re going back to the God Beast Forbidden Ground.”

“The Dragon God of the God Beast Forbidden Ground is about to ascend, and a new Martial God is appointed to take his role. We as disciples of other factions are expected to pay our respect.”

Even though the three were being cautious around Qin Nan, but they were not too worried. After all, the man was a Martial Monarch. If he was an enemy, he would have attacked them by now instead of asking them questions about the things that everyone already knew.

Therefore, they assumed the man had cultivated in seclusion for a long time. He was also a great admirer of Qin Nan.

“Oh? Little Worm hasn’t ascended after so long?”

Qin Nan blurted out in astonishment, “Great, can I tag along if you don’t mind?”

If Little Worm was ascending and the disciples of many factions were attending, the people he knew, including his father would be there too.

It would save him time for looking for them one by one.

“That won’t be a problem.”

The four immediately went on their way and flew into the distance.

Qin Nan observed the scenery along the way and occasionally asked them questions to familiarize himself with the current Canglan Continent.

It was now the forty-ninth year of Qin Miao. Many geniuses of the Nine Words Ancient Sea, God Beast Forbidden Ground, and other formidable factions had achieved the Martial Monarch Realm and Martial God Realm, and proceeded to ascend to the Nine Heavens.

The Canglan Continent who was initially at the bottom of the Secondary Lower Realm had risen to the average level. It was slowly catching up to the five great continents of the Secondary Lower Realm.

On top of it, the Evil Shrine that suddenly appeared had been murdering the experts of many factions over the past ten years. It even claimed the Evil God is the real god of the Canglan Continent instead of Qin Nan!

Some were converted, but most people were furious.

However, the cultivators and factions who were reluctant to admit it were targeted by the Evil Shrine. A few weaker factions had already fallen because of it.

Qin Nan’s eyes turned cold, especially when he heard that the Sky-Scorching Ancient Kingdom in the Middle Continent had lost twenty cities and over ten thousand lives.

Qin Nan and the others soon arrived at the God Beast Forbidden Ground.

The God Beast Forbidden Ground had changed significantly. Huge islands were floating across the ocean with strong beastly auras. Every island was connected with a powerful formation too.

The formation’s power was extraordinary. Even a peak Martial God would not be able to break through it.

Qin Nan followed the three and stood on an ancient boat sailing for the Island of the God Beast. He stared into the distance.

“Little Worm, Ao Cangtian, the master of the Dao Origin Heavenly Mountain…ugh, many people are already here.”

Qin Nan took a quick glance and immediately saw every formation and cultivator on the islands.

“Many people are going to be present during the Ascension of the Dragon God, including the authorities. You might be a Martial Monarch, but you shouldn’t tell anyone your name is Qin Nan, let alone telling them you are the God of Canglan. Do you understand?” Xiao Ling’er said sternly.

Qin Nan nodded with a smile.

Things were getting a little interesting…

The ancient boat soon landed on the Island of the God Beast. The four went off the boat and proceeded to the center of the island under the lead of the God Beast Forbidden Ground’s disciples.

Some time later, they saw three huge dojos over five hundred thousand zhang long floating in the sky.

Each dojo was filled with seats. Several Martial Monarchs and Martial Gods in the form of light rays were approaching from the distance. They soon landed on the dojos.

Strong auras surged across the place.

“Oh my, the Dragon God’s influence is pretty insane. Almost the experts of every faction are here!” Chang Le blurted out in excitement while trembling slightly.

It was rare to see such a gathering even in the last fifty years!

“Let’s head inside. I heard the top ten geniuses of the Heaven Ranking will be here too,” Xiao Ling’er sounded excited too.

They went to the third dojo under the guidance of a God Beast Forbidden Ground’s disciple.

The seats were classified into five categories according to the cultivation levels and status of the guests.

Xiao Ling’er was ranked in the top thirty of the Earth Ranking, hence her seat was in the third level. Meanwhile, Chang Le and Chang Qing could only sit in the fourth level.

However, Xiao Ling’er was rather kind. She purposely found her master and specifically arranged for Qin Nan to sit beside her.

“Look, over there, that’s Lei Huan, the ninth rank on the Heaven Ranking! I heard he’s the successor of Longhu Martial God with the lineage of the Sky-Dragon and Lightning-Tiger. That guy over there is ranked first on the Heaven Ranking…”

Xiao Ling’er kept talking.
