“He’s attacking!”
Tang Qingshan and Jiang Bilan were startled.
At that instant, the G.o.dly Exterminator Saber Art and the Wheel of Death exerted an incredible force which felt like two guardians standing on either side of Qin Nan.
Sima Kong’s trio was slightly shocked, as they did not expect someone would dare to harm Qin Nan under their watch.
The surrounding geniuses were not too surprised by the sudden movement. After all, it was expected that someone would lose their mind and attack Qin Nan.
“Mm? You guys knew about my existence?”
The South-Heaven Spirit Envoy sounded surprised.
He was aware of the person who cultivated the G.o.dly Exterminator Scripture, as he was also one of his targets on the list, but his grade was not as high as Qin Nan’s. To his surprise, they were able to preemptively detect his presence.
“Was that really a surprise to you?”
Jiang Bilan let out a hollow laugh as the Wheel of Death behind her unleashed countless rays of death.
Tang Qingshan soared into the sky and slashed downward with incredible might.
The South-Heaven Spirit Envoy was forced to suppress his cultivation to the Martial Progenitor Realm in order to sneak into the third stage of the Monarch Horoscope Contest. As such, he was being held off by the two geniuses.
“Keke, so what if you knew that I’m here? Even if I could only use half of my strength, I can easily devour him.”
The South-Heaven Spirit Envoy let out a strange chuckle as a blue ray was fired from his forehead into Qin Nan’s forehead.
“c.r.a.p!”
Jiang Bilan, Tang Qingshan, and the others were astounded. The former was instantly infuriated, causing the power of the Wheel of Death to increase significantly.
BANG!
Qin Nan could feel a great force penetrating his forehead into his Divine Sense.
Following this, a pitch-black human figure slowly appeared in his Divine Sense.
“HAHAHA, this is what you get for rejecting me, even though you won’t end up better if you actually accepted my offer. However, rejecting me will surely bring you a worse ending...”
A laugh could be heard as the pitch-black human figure wore an eerie grin.
Following this, several black glows were emitted from his figure, which contaminated Qin Nan’s Divine Sense at a shocking pace.
“Is that so?”
Qin Nan’s expression remained the same.
He could not help but admit that the black glows did possess a terrifying devouring power.
However, did he really think his Divine Sense could be invaded that easily?
BANG!
As Qin Nan expected, the copper mirror floating in his Divine Sense immediately let out a blinding glow, erasing the presence of the black glows.
“Mm?”
The human figure was shocked.
What exactly was able to erase the South-Heaven Glow?
He raised his head and was stunned after taking a glimpse.
The copper mirror?
Was it the reason?
Could this be...
The pitch-black figure quickly scanned Qin Nan’s Divine Sense and discovered the presence of the remaining two things as well.
“The South-Heaven Gate is still the same, as disgusting as usual.” The mysterious voice in the copper mirror appeared as it fired a blue glow, penetrating the black figure.
“What exactly is this South-Heaven Spirit Envoy?” Qin Nan blurted out.
“It doesn’t know anything for now. It only knows that you’re an enemy. You should discover the rest of the truth yourself.” The mysterious voice said and fell silent immediately.
Qin Nan was left speechless. However, it was a relief that the South-Heaven Gate was clueless about the Divine G.o.d of Battle.
Qin Nan withdrew his thoughts and slowly opened his eyes. He immediately saw Tang Qingshan and Jiang Bilan battling against the South-Heaven Spirit Envoy.
“HAHAHA, so you’re her Tribulation of Three Lifetimes! You’re now considered a four-starred enemy! If I’m able to bring you back, I’ll become a South-Heaven G.o.dly Emperor! There’s no way I would let you go today!”
The South-Heaven Spirit Envoy was filled with excitement.
It had come here under the order of the South-Heaven Gate to annihilate its enemy in the Monarch Horoscope Contest. After peeking into the memories of a genius who had been killed during the battle, it learned that Qin Nan had surpa.s.sed the rules of cultivation by having five Martial Trees, thus he could be considered a three-starred enemy.
As such, it had chosen Qin Nan as its first target.
To its surprise, it turned out that he was also that woman’s Tribulation of Three Lifetimes.
It was a great opportunity!
“Won’t let me escape, huh?”
Qin Nan’s lips curled upward as he rose from the ground.
He had recovered sixth-tenths of his cultivation, which was more than enough for him.
However, at that instant...
The intense battle between the geniuses was still taking place, thus none of them were focused on the situation that Qin Nan was in.
On the first altar, s.h.i.+ Qingfan’s face suddenly flushed as a series of explosions took place in his body, causing a line of blood to run down from his lips as his aura dropped rapidly.
“Mm?”
“s.h.i.+ Qingfan is injured?”
“Did he fail to inherit the Monarch Horoscope as well?”
The surrounding geniuses became energized upon seeing this.
They immediately charged into his direction without hesitation.
However, before reaching the altar, their movement was hindered by an invisible barrier.
The reason being that when someone was inheriting the Monarch Horoscope, the altar would set up a barrier to prevent the process from being interrupted.
The geniuses were startled. Hadn’t s.h.i.+ Qingfan failed to inherit the Monarch Horoscope? Why was the altar still protecting him?
“Senior Brother, you...”
Yu Qingtong began to panic.
“Qingtong, come and help me. I will be knocked out from the altar within five hundred breaths’ time.” s.h.i.+ Qingfan groaned.
“Alright!”
Yu Qingtong flew straight toward the altar. The geniuses nearby did not have any time to stop her, thus they could only watch her ascend the altar.
...Meanwhile, two explosions could be heard coming from the second and third altars as well...
Both Sorceress Qian Qian and Sage Chen Zilai groaned as they spat out a mouthful of blood. They opened their eyes and exchanged a complicated look with one another.
The geniuses nearby frowned. Had they failed the process too?
They tried to approach the altars and discovered that they were still being sealed off by the invisible barrier.
“Amitabha, I never thought that I would need to defeat you in order to achieve the Martial Monarch Realm.”
Sage Chen Zilai held his palms together.
“Yeah, it’s our destiny I guess. It seems like we won’t be able to avoid this battle.” Sorceress Qian Qian wore a blossoming smile as her demonic aura was unleashed, “Bald donkey, I’ve defeated you last time. There’s no way you can beat me this time either.”
Whoos.h.!.+
With a kick, her pet.i.te figure instantly arrived above Chen Zilai. She swung her hand downward, summoning thousands of demons which tore at her target ferociously.
