Peerless Battle Spirit
chapter-997

Inside the storage bag lay an ancient silver ring.

Even though Qin Nan was not an expert in artifacts, he was extremely familiar with the ring. It was known as the Sumeru Ring, comprising a space within which not only objects could be stored, but even living things like humans, beasts, etc.

The Sumeru Ring was extremely valuable in the Middle Continent. Having a great sum of Monarch Crystals did not necessarily mean one could buy it. As such, even though Qin Nan had been interested in finding one, he was forced to give up on the thought in the end.

To his surprise, the Dragon Emperor had given him such a great gift.

With the Sumeru Ring, he could easily hide the two hounds, one mouse, and the eight skeletons inside it, preventing them from attracting any attention. It would even come in handy in certain circumstances.

“I shall refine it first.” Qin Nan flicked a drop of blood onto the ring.

An hour later, the Sumeru Ring was fully refined, allowing him to activate it with a single thought.

Qin Nan peeked inside with his Divine Sense and saw a white space in the shape of a three zhang wide square floating in the air. The space was filled with a faint presence of Qi as well.

“This should be enough for now.”

Qin Nan was not disappointed. He immediately set up formations to modify the space and placed the Dao Origin Crystal inside it.

Following this, the space was filled with a thick presence of Qi, making it a great place to cultivate.

“I’m not sure how they are doing in their seclusion…” Qin Nan gazed deep into the Dragon Emperor Clan.

Since his last ‘lesson’, Ao Cangtian, Jiu Jiu, and Yang Qi had yet to come out from their seclusion.

Qin Nan shook his head and decided against the urge to visit the Ten Thousand Beast Garden. He started cultivating in seclusion, comprehending the Monarch Art.

The Dao Origin Crystal had upgraded under the nurture of Qin Nan’s Vital Qi, which began to emit a faint Dao intent, extremely useful for Qin Nan to comprehend his Monarch Art.

Three days later, he had gained a new understanding of the Art of Destruction, only a final step away from mastering it.

Once he made his final step, he could finally unleash the Zone of Destruction.

When the zone was set up, everything within a li would face utter destruction, an extremely powerful move.

In other words, his enemies would have trouble attacking him or being in his proximity.

“You three, and you eight, follow me.” Qin Nan’s eyes sprang open as he transmitted his voice to the two hounds, one mouse, and the eight skeletons.

“AH, Master, you’ve finally remembered us!” The two hounds opened their eyes and felt like crying. They were extremely bored after cultivating all this time.

It was more interesting to follow Qin Nan around as he bullied the geniuses and robbed their treasure.

“Idiots.” Xiao Hong said in a disdainful tone. The flames in her eyes flickered.

“Mm, come into the ring. I’ll summon you out when the time is appropriate.” Qin Nan raised his head and placed them all in the ring with a wave, giving them no time to react.

As he thought, the two hounds began to howl as they arrived in the Sumeru Ring.

What was the difference between this and cultivating in seclusion!

“Mm, time’s up…” Qin Nan ignored the two hounds’ protest and proceeded to the dojo.

Hua Lie stood in the front, followed by Hua Dichen, Song Dong, and the others.

The five did not even glance at Qin Nan as he arrived, completely ignoring his presence.

“The Worriless Ocean is not too far from the Dragon Emperor Clan. We’ll be flying there, so you have some time to get yourselves used to its aura.” Hua Lie said in a calm tone before flying into the distance with a kick.

Hua Dichen, Song Dong, and the rest immediately followed behind.

They had all reached the peak Martial Progenitor Realm, thus their speed was incredible. As Qin Nan flew into the sky, they were already a great distance ahead.

“Trying to leave me behind?”

Qin Nan’s lips curled upward as he executed the Unstoppable Step.

Whoosh!

His figure sprang forward like a ray of lightning. Although it was still incomparable to the others’ speed, he could still see their figures in the distance.

“That guy is quite fast.”

Song Dong and his crew were astounded.

They had completely ignored Qin Nan’s presence as they had decided to show Qin Nan the difference between their strength.

“Do you want to teach him a lesson once we’ve left the boundary of the Dragon Emperor Clan? I can stop anyone from detecting the impact for a while.” Hua Lie transmitted his voice to Hua Dichen.

“Father, it’s fine, the three Monarch Beasts have high hopes for him. It would be bad for us if something were to happen to him along the way. We will have many chances to deal with him at the Worriless Ocean…”

Hua Dichen shook his head, as his eyes flickered coldly.

He was never fond of the idea of achieving his goal through sacrifices. He preferred to have someone do the dirty work for them instead.

However, in the future, Hua Dichen was glad that he had made this decision.

If they had chosen to trouble Qin Nan now, they would have had to suffer being beaten up by Qin Nan’s Beast-Hitting Stick.

...Time gradually passed. Two days later…

A breeze appeared out of nowhere, with a faint scent and intent of the Worriless Ocean, allowing one to forget all their worries.

“I’ll now gather the intent so you all can comprehend it.” Hua Lie said with a solemn voice.

He reached out his hand, causing five rays of light to shine upon Hua Dichen, Qin Nan, and the rest.

The intent scattered in the air swarmed toward the disciples like starving wolves.

The intent surrounding Qin Nan’s figure turned out to be the thickest, resulting in a lack of comfort.

“So this is the Worriless Intent? It seems like this Worriless Ocean is quite imperious.”

Qin Nan’s eyes flickered with astonishment.

If anyone failed to resist the intent, they would put all o their thoughts aside, causing them to feel lazy, which would eventually result in their Martial Hearts collapsing.

How could any living thing be worriless?

Only puppets were worriless.

“Consolidate the heart.”

With a thought, Qin Nan resisted the Worriless Intent while comprehending it with his shocking Martial Skill Talent.

Another three hours had passed.

The glow encapsulating the figures of Qin Nan, Hua Dichen, and the others began to dim. They were now able to resist the Worriless Intent without doing it on purpose.

At that instant, the breeze became stronger. They could also hear the slaps of the waves below them.

“We’re here.” Hua Lie leapt out from the rift, followed by Hua Dichen, Qin Nan, and the others.

Before they had the time to check the surroundings, a terrifying saber approached them rapidly, aiming to shatter them into pieces.
