Chapter 1067 – The Southern Continent’s Royal City
Chapter 1067 – The Southern Continent’s Royal City
Qin Nan withdrew his thoughts from his Divine Sense after the Sky-Desolating Saber Monarch’s figure disappeared.
“The Royal City of the Southern Continent, huh?” Qin Nan mumbled before transmitting his voice to Chen Yun who was currently cultivating in seclusion.
The Sky-Desolating Saber Art was not something ordinary, thus it would not be easy to be comprehended.
The Monarch Horoscope Contest would take place in two months, thus he had to make sure he could master the saber art before then.
As such, he could not afford to waste any further time.
“Brother Qin Nan, you want to go to our Royal City?”
Chen Yun’s eyes sprang open with a hint of astonishment.
She assumed Qin Nan to be a genius of the Monarch Ranking, who was at least ranked in the top one hundred. Why would someone like him be interested in their Royal City?
Despite being confused, she continued to explain, “If you want to go to our Royal City, take this badge. There’s an ancient altar just a hundred li away from here. It can teleport you to somewhere close to our Royal City…”
After giving Qin Nan the badge, Chen Yun also handed him the map of the Royal City and a scroll recording the information about the nearby factions.
“This badge is my personal badge. If you are in any kind of trouble, activate it and my father will assist you.” Chen Yun gave Qin Nan another badge after a slight hesitation.
“Thank you.”
Qin Nan could feel warmth in his heart.
His journey would be made simpler with all these things that Chen Yun had given him.
“Brother Qin Nan, there’s no need to be so official with me.” Chen Yun was slightly embarrassed, who immediately switched topics, “Are you leaving now? Do you want to tell Di Fengyun and the others?”
“Don’t worry about it, I’ll let you all continue to cultivate.”
Qin Nan rose from the ground and transmitted a message to Ao Dongfang and the others before flying into the distance with a kick.
Chen Yun’s eyes were filled with a firm determination as she stared at Qin Nan’s departing figure. She had to succeed in altering her destiny so that she could be an expert like Brother Qin Nan one day!
“Mm?”
Chen Yun suddenly discovered a fiery scroll lying on the ground.
Where did this scroll come from?
She subconsciously checked its contents and was left dumbfounded when she saw the Monarch Arts inside the scroll.
…A moment later, on the third floor of the ancient temple of the Resplendent Land…
“Mm? I just got a message from Brother Qin Nan. He mentioned that he has resolved the danger. He’s currently leaving the Resplendent Land!” Ao Dongfang glimpsed at the message and blurted out excitedly.
Hua Jiwudao, Su Qingqing, and the others let out relieved sighs.
“As expected.” Jiang Bilan said smilingly, “Since he has left, I have some business to settle. Do you guys want to follow me, or…?”
“Err, that’s fine.”
“We’ll see you next time.”
Ao Dongfang and his crew said after a slight hesitation.
After all, they were not familiar with the Death Cultivator, and her reputation had been quite infamous lately.
“I’ll go with you.” Mu Mu who had remained silent throughout the journey suddenly said.
Ao Dongfang and the others were shocked, and their first reaction was to advise her against it. However, they gulped their words down when they saw her icy expression.
Jiang Bilan’s eyes flickered with astonishment. She never thought this Mu Mu to be this smart.
The business she mentioned was to murder people.
…After the duration of three incense sticks, around ten li away from the Royal City of the Southern Continent…
Whoosh!
A figure descended from the sky, who was none other than Qin Nan.
Before Qin Nan had the time to observe his surroundings, a blinding glow burst out from the metal piece, which transformed into several white dragons that entered Qin Nan’s body, sealing his power.
His aura was suppressed to the fifth-layer Martial Sacred Realm.
“The trial has already begun. I’m not used to this cultivation.”
Qin Nan stretched his body.
Although Qin Nan could break free from the seal of the metal piece with brute force, he clearly knew that once the seal was broken, he would fail the trial as well.
“That must be the Royal City?”
Qin Nan activated his left eye of the Divine God of Battle and glanced into the distance.
A giant bronze-golden city stood firmly, covering a huge area with an imperious aura. Several troops of soldiers were patrolling its surroundings.
“This city is quite strange, I’m able to capture the presence of the Bodhi’s will, and a stream of saber intent from it. The saber intent must be the Sky-Desolating Saber Art, but where does the Bodhi’s will come from? Could it be Chen Zilai?”
The thought crossed Qin Nan’s mind, urging him to quicken his pace. He soon entered the Royal City.
The moment he entered the city, a great noise swarmed in his direction as countless cultivators were crowding the streets.
Qin Nan checked his surroundings and immediately saw a giant statue a distance away, emitting a faint Bodhi glow, which would cause people to feel calm just by looking at it.
The statue was of none other than the famous Sage of the Middle Continent, Chen Zilai!
“It’s really him!”
Qin Nan was left speechless.
It seemed like the culture of the Southern Continent was similar to the Eastern Continent. They would construct magnificent statues of the rising geniuses everywhere.
“However, the overall strength of the Southern Continent seems stronger than our Eastern Continent. There are over thirty peak Martial Sacred Realm experts alone, and a half-Martial Progenitor, with countless ninth and eight-layer Martial Sacreds…”
Qin Nan murmured as his gaze shifted toward the streets, inspecting every single stone lying on the ground.
Since the Sky-Desolating Saber Art was here in the Royal City, there would be some traces waiting to be discovered. If not, was the Sky-Desolating Saber Art really asking him to sit in the center of the city and comprehend on his own?
“Mm? This is interesting, every brick and tile, tree and wood, flower and grass contains a deeply concealed and weak saber intent, which is unique and different from the others…”
Qin Nan’s eyes glistened.
Did that mean he would need to fully comprehend all the saber intent hidden in the city to comprehend the Sky-Desolating Saber Art?
“That isn’t right, if that’s the case, someone would have retrieved the Sky-Desolating Saber Art before me! After all, I’m not the only one here with an outstanding eye-technique.”
Qin Nan soon frowned as countless thoughts crossed his mind.
“I’m still not familiar with the Royal City, thus I can take a look around while comprehending the saber intent all around the city, and maybe I’ll find something useful.”
Qin Nan calmed his thoughts.
This trial was different from the ones he had participated in in the past. It was similar to refining his heart.
If that were the case, he should calm his thoughts and experience everything that the Royal City could offer.
“Make way! Please make way! Are you idiot civilians looking for a quick death?”
