The whole island fell silent.
Every cultivator was absolutely dumbfounded.
“The fact that he’s able to stand his ground in the center of the Soul-Devouring Storm, he must be an Exceptional Genius from a formidable faction!” a Peerless Ruler exclaimed upon collecting his thoughts.
Only a Peerless Ruler in the Greater Success Stage who was once an Exceptional Genius was able to achieve such an astonis.h.i.+ng feat!
“An Exceptional Genius?”
The island master’s heart skipped a beat.
A Peerless Ruler in the Greater Success Stage might intimidate him slightly, but there was no need for him to be afraid since he had some connections with the Mystical Ruins too.
However, a Peerless Ruler in the Greater Success Stage who was also an Exceptional Genius was clearly someone he could not afford to offend!
His forehead was covered in cold sweat as he recalled what he said to the skinny scholar.
Roar!
A shocking blast suddenly took place in the sky.
The countless gray wind sabers were gathered by an unusual force, which soon took the shape of an enormous dragon over a hundred thousand zhang long!
The enormous dragon had a ferocious look and blood eyes as it stared at Qin Nan coldly. A strong destructive aura burst out of its body. Even the people on the island could feel it.
“Mm?”
Qin Nan was astounded.
Where did the dragon come from?
“The Soul-Devouring Dragon! A Soul-Devouring Dragon has appeared!” a Peerless Ruler on the island blurted out.
In the Sacred Ocean Realm, countless Soul-Devouring Storms would take place every day, and among them, a few would give birth to the Soul-Devouring Dragon due to some unexpected transformation of the energy it contained.
Each Soul-Devouring Dragon was equivalent to a peak Peerless Ruler, especially when their strength was enhanced by the countless gray wind sabers. Even a peak Peerless Ruler would struggle against it.
ROAR! ROAR! ROAR!
Three shocking roars were heard out of nowhere.
The gray wind sabers above the storm gathered once again and turned into three enormous dragons.
Four enormous dragons hovered above the storm with cold eyes and destructive auras, as if they were about to combine into another storm amid the first one.
“Four…four of them?”
The island master and the cultivators were dumbfounded. Their bodies began to tremble.
Even the Peerless Rulers were wearing pale faces.
“Four Soul-Devouring Dragons? Only an Exceptional Genius that had reached the peak Peerless Ruler Realm or the Nine Heavens Supreme Realm could possibly stand a chance against them!”
“That man is in great danger!” a Peerless Ruler blurted out with a sigh.
“Well, well, well!”
The island master was overjoyed as he came to his senses.
He did not expect the man to be so out of luck, to encounter four Soul-Devouring Dragons at once!
Even if the man was an Exceptional Genius with outstanding capabilities, he was still going to die in the end!
Even if he was lucky enough to survive, he would be left with serious injuries while holding onto his last breath!
“Perhaps this is a chance for me!”
The island master’s eyes glittered as a thought crossed his mind.
An Exceptional Genius must possess a lot of valuable stuff. If he could find a chance to ambush the Exceptional Genius while he was suffering from serious injuries…
“Interesting.”
Qin Nan showed no sign of fear. His lips curled upward.
The leaves of the Tree of Dao floating in the sky began to shake despite the absence of wind, releasing an overwhelming force.
The four enormous dragons howled and reached out their claws.
BANG BANG BANG!
Terrifying gusts of wind surged in all directions, shattering the wind sabers into pieces.
Even though the four enormous dragons were rather powerful, they were still too weak compared to the destructive force of the Tree of Dao. Their heads began to break in just five breaths.
Their bodies were breaking into pieces too as they were covered in countless wounds.
However, the gray wind sabers returned once again and helped the dragons recover fully within an instant. Their eyes turned colder.
“The Soul-Devouring Storm keeps feeding them energy. Forget it, there’s no point to fight them any longer.”

Qin Nan withdrew the Tree of Dao. He unleashed the White-Blue Flower and flew ahead.
The four enormous dragons might not have consciousness, but they still had a low-level of intelligence. Their eyes flickered with disdain when they saw the flower that was smaller than a single piece of their scales.
Whoos.h.!.+
One of the dragons swung its claw casually.
The other three waved their tails, preparing to flank Qin Nan from three directions.
The man’s cultivation was beyond their expectation!
However, a shocking sight took place at that instant. The four dragons stiffened when they sensed the aura of the Flower of Eternity.
Their eyes flickered with astonishment. Their bodies began to break into pieces and dissipated before they realized what just happened.
The energy of the Soul-Devouring Storm did not help them recover any further.
On top of it, the Soul-Devouring Storm began to crumble.
Qin Nan immediately withdrew the Flower of Eternity into his body. The flower’s power was simply too overwhelming. If it stayed for any longer, the whole Soul-Devouring Storm might be destroyed too.
It would be too shocking for the people on the island.
After all, even a Nine Heavens Supreme in the early stage had to use all their might to overcome the Soul-Devouring Storm.
“They…they are gone?”
The Peerless Rulers, island master, and the cultivators opened their eyes wide, as if they had just been struck by lightning.
Those were four Soul-Devouring Dragons!
The skinny scholar was only a Peerless Ruler in the Greater Success Stage. How did he defeat them all by himself?
Most importantly, the process only lasted for less than fifty breaths. He was able to defeat the Soul-Devouring Dragons so easily!
The island fell silent once again.
The storm continued to surge forward.
A few moments later, the storm completely pa.s.sed the island and continued ahead. Qin Nan successfully resisted the storm. He returned to the island under the crowd’s gaze.
“Island master, isn’t time for you to keep your promise?” Qin Nan said calmly.
“Senior Supreme, please forgive me for being as blind as a bat!” the island master bowed and apologized with a pale face.
The others looked at Qin Nan respectfully too.
They had obviously a.s.sumed Qin Nan to be a Nine Heavens Supreme!
However, he was only pretending to be a Peerless Ruler in the Greater Success Stage to keep a low profile.
“You didn’t offend me, why are you apologizing?”
Qin Nan frowned and waved his hand. He said, “Forget it, I don’t ask you for a million Immortal Stones. Tell me, what kind of a faction is the Mystical Ruins which you mentioned before?”
