Chapter 1989 - The Start of the Battle
A middle-aged man with an ancient aura whose clothes were rugged and covered in bloodstains was approaching from the distance while carrying a crescent blade.
Qin Nan and the others did not recognize the man, but the aura he was emitting was indicating that he was a peak Peerless Ruler!
Jian Jiao frowned.
He was not willing to team up with others against a strong opponent.
However, he did not say anything in the end. He performed a hand seal with his left hand while swinging the sword in his right. The grass on the ground was sliced into pieces by the sword intents.
“The Nine Tunes of Returning Sword!”
Jian Jiao made his move again. He split into several shadows, each slashing their sword at Qin Nan.
Every slash he executed seemed to be implementing the rules on behalf of the Heavens and Earth, with a sense of judgment.
The middle-aged man shrugged. He grinned at Qin Nan and said, “Young man, you better hand over the Heaven-Shrouding Beast soon, or I will have to taste blood when I get excited!”
He made his move following the sentence. Different golden-blue symbols lit up on the crescent blade.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
A few illusionary figures on horses with long blades appeared from all directions and lined up perfectly with a strong murderous aura.
The middle-aged man’s aura shifted tremendously too, as if he had become a general in the chaotic primordial times.
Dao Art, Curse of Thousand Generals!
The bald man with thick brows performed a hand seal to execute a Dao Art too.
Normally, it was unlikely they would join hands, but Qin Nan had broken some unspoken rule. They would not show any mercy if Qin Nan continued to ride the Heaven-Shrouding Beast for even a second more.
However, the old man with black hair was still deep in his thoughts.
He was too familiar with the face. He had a strong feeling that the young man was no ordinary person!
“He’s done for…”
The cultivators hiding in the surroundings, and the four Peerless Rulers who were defeated previously shook their heads.
They could tell that the young man was only a Peerless Genius in the Greater Success Stage at most. Even if he was an Exceptional Genius, he would not stand any chance against the three Peerless Rulers.
“Dragon Soaring Art!”
Qin Nan made his move by executing two Arts of Dao Seeking simultaneously. He transformed into a huge dragon before rising into the sky and shattering the saber intents.
“Dao-Jolting Saber Art!”
His huge dragon claw grabbed the Heaven-Shattering Saber and unleashed wisps of formidable saber intents.
BANG BANG BANG!
A series of explosions took place.
Qin Nan fought the three Peerless Rulers alone, yet he was not necessary in a pinch.
“Swords come and go, swords rise and fall!”
Jian Jiao suddenly changed his approach. He placed the immortal sword upright in front of him before swiping two of his fingers from the hilt to the tip.
The rift nearby shook vigorously during the process. As his fingers reached the tip of the sword, the rift suddenly broke into pieces.
A powerful saber intent solidified before pouring down at Qin Nan like a slash executed by a peerless sword emperor.
The bald man let out a loud roar too. His figure enlarged rapidly as he transformed into a giant covered in a golden glow over ten zhang tall. He threw his fist that was enhanced by countless runes at Qin Nan.
“Gathering the force of the generals, the unstoppable slash!”
The cultivator with an aura of the peak Peerless Ruler Realm combined with all illusionary figures. His aura skyrocketed to a surprising level.
“Those three are using their killing blows!”
“He won’t have a chance to retreat if he doesn’t withdraw now!”
The cultivators and the Peerless Rulers were startled.
They had to admit how powerful the moves which the three cultivators were using were, especially Jian Jiao’s sword intent. It was almost comparable to the strength of the peak Peerless Ruler.
However, the Heaven-Shrouding Beast cried in the nick of time. Its eyes were full of fear, but Qin Nan kept suppressing it to prevent it from running away.
The three cultivators were indeed extraordinary when they joined hands. His battle blood was starting to feel the excitement!
“The Fighting Dao of Sky Taihuang, World-Scorching Slash!”
Qin Nan executed a slash. Its brilliance shone upon the crowd.
The saber glow consisted of the will of two Arts of Dao Seeking. It had also merged with the force of the Dao-Jolting Saber Art and the Dao-Melting Immortal Flames, increasing its strength to an insane level.
BANG!
The force of the sword intents, fist, and thousand generals were crushed in an instant.
On top of it, the remaining saber intent was completely unstoppable. Jian Jiao, the bald man, and the middle-aged man’s eyes widened. They quickly reacted to defend themselves.
“It broke through all of them?”
The cultivators were dumbfounded.
“This man is no ordinary person. The three of us must work together closely instead of fighting for our own sake. Otherwise, we’ll have to pay a huge price to take him out!”
The smile on the middle-aged man’s face was gone. He transmitted his voice to the other two.
The glow in Jian Jiao’s eyes thickened, but he remained silent. It was his way of giving his consent. The bald man agreed with it too.
“I’ll do a feint from the left, the two of you will strike from the right! Let’s do it…” the middle-aged man said. The immortal force in his body surged as he was about to make his move.
However, they saw a magnificent figure emerging from Qin Nan’s back with an overwhelming aura that collided with them like an immortal mountain.
The middle-aged man and Jian Jiao were dumbfounded. They were forced to back away with blood rolling ferociously in their bodies. The bald man even let out a groan as blood leaked out from his lips.
“Isn’t that…Lord of All Worlds?”
The rest of the cultivators were startled.
There was a great difference between the Exceptional Geniuses that were able to use the Lord of All Worlds and those who were unable to use it.
Even though those who were capable of using the Lord of All Worlds were not necessarily the strongest, but they were certainly strong nevertheless!
After all, having someone in the Master Realm as their master or close ones was significant for the Exceptional Geniuses.
“You dare…”
Jian Jiao and the other two suffered serious injuries.
“I remember now, you, you are…”
the old man with black hair was in great shock, as if he was struggling to believe his eyes.
“Everyone, thanks for going easy on me.”
Qin Nan smiled. He withdrew his aura and patted on the Heaven-Shrouding Beast. The beast groaned and flew into the sky.
Jian Jiao was going to chase after Qin Nan, but he had no choice but to give up on it when he saw Qin Nan was already gone. The other two completely lost their interest too.
Even with the three of them teaming up, they had no way of guaranteeing the outcome would be in their favor.
As for the old man with black hair, he left the seventh Sacred Area with an excited look instead.
Some time later, a shocking news began to spread in the Supreme-Transforming Realms. Qin Nan who had gone missing for a few months had finally shown himself!
