Qin Nan inhaled deeply.
Either way, he never thought the Anti-Heaven Alliance would establish its faction in a sword.
Suddenly, Qin Nan"s right arm trembled slightly, as if the presence of the Seven Luminaries Flying Sword had caught its attention.
Qin Nan was startled, who immediately urged the Heaven-Shattering Saber to calm itself with his Divine Sense. After all, it was where the Anti-Heaven Alliance was established. He could not let the Heaven-Shattering Saber do something foolish.
"That being said, if this sword has been able to avoid being detected by the South-Heaven Gate and Martial G.o.ds, and even caused the Heaven-Shattering Saber to have such reaction, it clearly implies how powerful the sword is."
Qin Nan mumbled.
Whoosh.
At that instant, the Seven Luminaries Flying Sword high up in the sky fired two obscure sword intents. Before Qin Nan could react, the sword intents enveloped their figures, causing them to disappear.
As for the Seven Luminaries Flying Sword, it continued to drift forward in the air, pa.s.sing over the land, mountain ranges, cities, etc. None of the cultivators below were aware of its existence.
Several breaths later, Qin Nan could feel himself landing on a solid surface. It appeared that he had arrived in an unfamiliar area.
Qi filled with sword intent surged toward him and covered his body.
The Qi was even stronger than that of the half-G.o.d region.
"Qin Nan, welcome to the Anti-Heaven Alliance. This is the s.p.a.ce within the Seven Luminaries Flying Sword."
Yi Feng"s voice echoed in Qin Nan"s ears.
Qin Nan immediately raised his head.
The place was incredibly s.p.a.cious, with no visible end. The sky had a faint blue color with three suns as a source of illumination which allowed the golden ground to look even more dazzling.
Qin Nan and Yi Feng were standing on a bluestone path.
At the end of the path stood two ninety-nine zhang tall bronze pillars, while a faint blue ancient mirror was floating between them. Right at the center of the mirror were three characters written in an imperious manner: 逆天盟 (Anti-Heaven Alliance)!
Behind the pillars was a platform extending all the way into the sky. It had ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine steps, which led to a ten thousand zhang long dojo made of white jade.
A pitch-black boulder with a height of thirty zhang was sitting at the center of the dojo. It was emanating an endless aura of desolation, like a boulder suppressing ancient demons which had been guarding the place for thousands of years!
The boulder was currently surrounded by a noisy crowd!
Furthermore, what grabbed Qin Nan"s attention the most were four enormous palaces floating deep in the sky above the dojo. Their auras were formidable like Monarch Weapons, and together with the three suns in the sky, they formed the ancient Seven Luminaries formation.
Below the four enormous palaces were countless small palaces. At a rough glance, there were at least four hundred of them, resulting in a magnificent sight!
Qin Nan could also sense the cultivators in the palaces—especially in the four enormous palaces—were quite terrifying. They were most likely Martial Monarch Realm authorities!
This was the Anti-Heaven Alliance!
Although it was not as formidable as the South-Heaven Sacred Ground, the Jade-Lake Sacred Ground, the Martial Principle Sect, or the six forbidden grounds, it did bring a sense of friendliness to him.
Yi Feng said smilingly as they proceeded toward the dojo, "The four palaces are named the Anti-Heaven Palace, the Star Aligning Palace, the Dark Shadow Palace, and the Mystic Treasure Palace. The Anti-Heaven Palace is used to coordinate attacks against the South-Heaven Sacred Ground. The Star Aligning Palace is where we come up with missions and plans. The other two palaces are in charge of gathering information and searching for destiny-altering fortunate encounters or treasures."
Qin Nan nodded slightly. This Anti-Heaven Alliance was indeed very different from the other factions.
Yi Feng said as he suddenly recalled something, "I forgot to mention something, the Anti-Heaven Alliance also has a principle. Everyone who is an enemy of the South-Heaven Sacred Ground, or is being prosecuted by the South-Heaven Sacred Ground is allowed to join the Anti-Heaven Alliance regardless of their cultivation. Currently, the Anti-Heaven Alliance has quite a number of Martial Sacreds and Martial Highnesses."
"Martial Sacreds and Martial Highnesses?" Qin Nan keenly noticed something and said, "Why would the South-Heaven Gate be targeting them since their cultivations are so low?"
"Even if their cultivations are weak, as long as the South-Heaven Gate a.s.sumes them to be potential threats, the people of the South-Heaven Sacred Ground would still kill them upon stumbling into them to prevent them from turning into large troubles in the future." Yi Feng"s eyes flickered coldly as it reminded him of something.
Qin Nan"s face became cold too.
The duo arrived at the bronze pillars.
The faint blue mirror suddenly unleashed a strong aura as two faint blue rays were fired from the mirror, which encapsulated their figures.
"Senior, what"s this?"
Qin Nan"s eyes flickered in astonishment.
"It belongs to the Alliance Leader, known as the Sky Emperor Mirror. It"s able to scan our bodies for trace any sign of power from the South-Heaven Gate. After all, the South-Heaven Gate is quite cunning. It could potentially insert its force into our bodies without us knowing, thus making us its spies."
Yi Feng said.
Qin Nan was quite impressed hearing this.
The Anti-Heaven Alliance was opposing the strongest authority in the Canglan Continent, the South-Heaven Sacred Ground and the South-Heaven Gate. Therefore, it had to be extremely cautious at all times.
"By the way, senior, may I ask what the strength of the Anti-Heaven Alliance is now?"
Qin Nan asked.
The question had been on his mind for quite some time.
Since the Magical Hair Sword G.o.d was daring enough to plan an attack within three years, he must have a strong army to be that confident. Therefore, Qin Nan was quite curious about how strong the Anti-Heaven Alliance was now.
"Sure, you can take a look at the boulder on the dojo. It has the records of everything major that is related to the Anti-Heaven Alliance since it was established."
Yi Feng said with a smile.
"Oh?"
Qin Nan never thought the boulder was actually used to record the past events. He immediately inspected it with his left eye of the Divine G.o.d of Battle.
A great explosion echoed in his heart following a glimpse.
He could see giant words on it that seemed to have been carved with an ancient G.o.dly sword. Each stroke consisted of a terrifying sword intent, which could be unleashed anytime from the boulder to destroy the Heavens and Earth!
However, the sword intent alone was not enough to astonish Qin Nan. The series of events recorded was the actual surprise!
"The Magical Hair Sword G.o.d established the Anti-Heaven Alliance!
"The Magical Hair Sword G.o.d slew Martial G.o.d Bahuang of the South-Heaven Sacred Ground!"
"The Nine Continents Sword G.o.d left the South-Heaven Sacred Ground and joined the Anti-Heaven Alliance!"
"The Crimson Abyss Martial Monarch joined the Anti-Heaven Alliance!"
"The Ancient Lightning Martial Monarch and the Illusionist Martial Monarch joined the Anti-Heaven Alliance!"
"The Sun and Moon Sword G.o.d left the Martial Principle Sect to join the Anti-Heaven Alliance!"
"The Magical Hair Sword G.o.d struck again and slew the Extreme Dao Martial Monarch, the Serene Magic Martial Monarch, and the Forbidden Ocean Martial Monarch."
"Martial Monarch Yuqing, Martial Monarch Liuhe, and Martial Monarch Guiwu joined the Anti-Heaven Alliance!"
"Martial Monarch Dongku joined the Anti-Heaven Alliance!"
"The Magical Hair Sword G.o.d"s disciples inherited the Monarch Horoscopes in the Monarch Horoscope Contest of the G.o.d Ranking and successfully achieved the Martial Monarch Realm. They were granted the t.i.tles Martial Monarch Mingkong and Martial Monarch Rongtian!"
