Chapter 1318 - Allying with the Blood Pact
On the surface, the attack looked rather ordinary, but the truth was that five terrifying drops of blood were hidden under the palm.
If the attack landed, the five drops of blood would detonate instantly, transform into a few hundred Blood Path Demons and establish up to ten thousand layers of the Blood Demon Killing Formations.
Even a seventh-layer Martial Monarch would stand no chance against it.
"Who dares to break the rules?"
Many Martial Monarchs on the dojo were taken by surprise. Even the reputable ones observed with their Divine Sense.
Everyone was clearly aware that no violence was allowed here on the Dragon Palace Dojo.
"Those who break the rules shall die!"
At the last moment, a cold voice exploded in Xuesha"s mind like a thunderous blast.
"c.r.a.p!"
Xuesha"s face turned pale instantly, who immediately withdrew his hand as cold sweat covered his forehead.
His mind had been overwhelmed by the murderous intent, such that he had completely forgotten about the purple figure.
As a ninth-layer Martial Monarch, he was well aware of how terrifying the purple figure was. If he had indeed executed the attack, even if he managed to survive from the consequences, he would suffer serious injuries too.
"Senior, I was blinded by my hatred toward my enemy, I didn"t mean to break the rules. Have mercy on me."
As expected of a Supreme Elder, Xuesha quickly reacted and brought his fists together toward the purple figure in a humble manner.
"Just this once."
The purple figure"s tone remained icy.
"Thank you, senior."
Xuesha instantly let out a relieved sigh.
"Duan Qing, consider yourself lucky this time. I won"t kill you now, but when I have the chance later, I will make sure that you die a horrible death."
Xuesha glanced at Qin Nan and threatened with a dark expression.
Besides him, Taoyan and Leiyuan wore the same murderous looks.
Their grudge against Qin Nan was for the sake of their Young Masters, but the fact that Qin Nan had put the ancient tribes to shame when he had killed their Young Masters four times in a row!
In their eyes, Duan Qing"s actions were clearly humiliating and challenging the three ancient tribes.
As such, Xuesha had completely lost his calm just then.
"Humph."
Xuesha, Taoyan, and Leiyuan uttered a cold harrumph, flicked their sleeves and left.
It was meaningless to stay any longer.
"d.a.m.n it, I didn"t expect to stumble into those three a.s.sholes" tribesmen here..."
Sima Kong wore a gloomy expression as he collected his thoughts. He did not feel good when three ninth-layer Martial Monarchs had their eyes on him.
Meanwhile, Qin Nan was perfectly calm.
Even though they were ninth-layer Martial Monarchs, which greatly surpa.s.sed his cultivation, what difference would it make?
If he were given a chance to go back in time, he would do the same thing.
As for the Martial Monarchs who had witnessed it all taking place, they shook their heads slightly in disappointment as they withdrew their gazes and Divine Sense.
They initially thought they would be able to watch a spectacular fight before entering the Dragon Soul Ancient Palace.
The purple figure who had been fairly quiet spoke all of a sudden.
"Fellow cultivators, welcome to the Dragon Soul Ancient Palace."
The words of the purple figure served as a great clap of thunder to the Martial Monarchs, including Sheng Tianjing, Zhuang Cidao, Old Man Kongwu, and the others, who immediately s.h.i.+fted their attention toward him.
Qin Nan and Sima Kong did the same too.
"Only the period it takes an incense stick to burn is left until the Dragon Soul Ancient Palace is fully opened.
"During this time, according to the rules, all cultivators are required to form an alliance of five members each with a blood pact.
"Those that don"t meet the requirement are not allowed to enter the Dragon Soul Ancient Palace."
The purple figure said.
"Five people in an alliance, formed with the blood pact?"
The Martial Monarchs were slightly startled by the words. They had been to many forbidden grounds, yet it was their first time encountering such a strange requirement.
"HAHAHA, interesting, very interesting, is anyone interested in forming a blood pact with me? Our alliance is still a person short."
Sheng Tianjing burst out laughing and glanced at the crowd.
"On that, I still need two more to join us. I hope cultivators are willing to join us."
Zhuang Cidao smilingly said.
"I also need two more people."
"I need..."
Following this, the peak Martial Monarchs such as the World"s Imperious Ruler, the Boundless Sea of Agony, Old Man Kongwu, the Frost Queen, and Martial Monarch Cangsong spoke to the crowd.
The Martial Monarchs immediately made their decisions.
Even though they did not understand the purpose of the arrangement by the Dragon Soul Ancient Palace, it went without saying that they were more inclined to join Sheng Tianjing, Zhuang Cidao, or the other top Martial Monarchs.
Meanwhile, those with lower cultivations were troubled. They knew that it was quite difficult for them to find an alliance.
"Fellow cultivators, why don"t we form an alliance?"
Qin Nan scanned the crowd and placed his attention on three third-layer Martial Monarchs, before transmitting his voice.
He had the map of the Dragon Soul Ancient Palace, thus it was unnecessary for him to team up with experts. It was better to team up with three weaker Martial Monarchs.
"Well..."
The three third-layer Martial Monarchs glanced at Qin Nan and immediately decided to reject the offer.
After all, Qin Nan"s aura was only at the first-layer Martial Monarch Realm.
"Hey hey hey, what are you three waiting for? Don"t get tricked by Cultivator Duan Qing"s aura of only the first-layer Martial Monarch Realm. His actual cultivation is able to face a sixth-layer Martial Monarch."
Sima Kong said confidently.
"Is that true?"
The eyes of the three Martial Monarchs flickered and they were convinced to accept the offer.
"Friends, I have a favor to ask."
At that instant, a thunderous voice exploded on the dojo.
Qin Nan, Sima Kong, and the other Martial Monarchs unconsciously glanced in its direction.
The person speaking was none other than Xuesha.
"Friends, this Duan Qing and G.o.d of Thieves are our enemies. We"d greatly appreciate if everyone can refrain from forming an alliance with them. Thank you."
Xuesha brought his fists together toward the crowd.
Standing beside, Taoyan and Leiyuan"s gazes pa.s.sed the crowd and landed on Qin Nan and Sima Kong"s figures with cold grins.
