Chapter 1740 - The Peerless Ruler Appears
“Three against one?”
The cultivators were stunned.
They did not expect the battle which You Hong was sure to win would end up like this.
“c.r.a.p!”
Xu Xianzhi’s expression s.h.i.+fted as she collected her thoughts.
She never thought You Hong would use such a shameless approach even when he was a core disciple.
Besides, there were quite serious about killing Qin Nan on the dojo.
“As expected of the Strongest Immortal, Qin Nan is still so tough even when his Dao Foundation has been destroyed. Such a pity, he’s most likely going to lose, and even die.”
A Supreme Elder of the Sanqing Ancient Sect shook his head with a sigh.
Although for some reason, Qin Nan was strong enough to defeat You Hong, there was no way he could take on three core disciples at once.
“Should I intervene with it?”
Changkong who was floating in the air frowned.
However, as he was still hesitating, Qin Nan did something surprising facing the three core disciples who were charging at him.
“You’re no longer weak now that the three of you have teamed up, but you are still no worthy for me to draw out my saber.”
Qin Nan wore a calm expression. He pushed forward instead of backing away.
“Battle Dao Immortal Ma.n.u.script, Destruction Battle Fist!”
He suddenly unleashed a formidable battle intent surging at the rift as if he had transformed into a G.o.d of Battle. It felt like he had just established his realm encapsulating the three core disciples.
“You…”
The eyes of You Hong, Cheng Fang, and the girl in a green dress widened.
The others might not feel it, but they clearly sensed the difference between them. It felt like they were just younglings that were born not long ago, but Qin Nan was a terrifying beast looming over the stars.
BANG!
Qin Nan threw his fist forward. Its destructive force shattered a huge area of the rift into pieces.
You Hong’s Fiery Dragon Armor, Cheng Fang’s ancient halberd, and the woman’s blue sword glow were shattered into pieces.
On top of it, the remaining force struck their chests. They cried out in pain as their flesh was inflicted with wounds. Their blood scattered in the air as they slammed heavily into the ground.
The single punch had defeated the three core disciples, and even inflicted serious injuries on them.
“How…how is this possible!?”
The Supreme Elders and the Heaven Immortal Realm experts immediately rose to their feet in astonishment upon witnessing this.
In addition to them, Changkong, Wan Xiao, Xu Xianzhi, Zhao Lijian, the Peerless Geniuses, and the rest of the cultivators were dumbfounded too. They were struggling to believe their eyes.
Qin Nan was going against three core disciples who had all achieved the Minor Success Stage of the Dao Realm!
If the three core disciples teamed up, they could easily defeat a third-layer Heaven Immortal who had mastered the Four Extremities.
But now, Qin Nan whose Dao Foundation had been destroyed had defeated them and left them with serious injuries with just a single punch!
“Impossible…no way!”
You Hong quickly rose from the pit. His body was trembling. He pointed at Qin Nan and screamed, “Your Dao Foundation has already been destroyed, you have only mastered the Four Extremities. How can you possess such remarkable strength!? What…what exactly…”
As a core disciple, his mentality surpa.s.sed that of ordinary cultivators.
Normally, whenever he suffered a defeat, he would reflect on his shortcomings. However, he was struggling to accept that Qin Nan had defeated the three of them!
“You’re right, my Dao Foundation was destroyed indeed, but have you not heard there are ways to reforge the Dao Foundation?”
Qin Nan wore an expressionless face. A strong Dao Intent burst out of his body and swept at the dojo like a gust of wind.
“Isn’t…isn’t that…”
You Hong, Cheng Fang, the woman in a green dress, Changkong, Wan Xiao, Xu Xianzhi, Zhao Lijian, the Peerless Geniuses, and the rest of the crowd were astounded.
Dao Intent!
Qin Nan was unleas.h.i.+ng Dao Intent!
In other words, he had really reforged his Dao Foundation!
Reforging Dao Foundation was at least ten times more difficult than achieving the Dao Realm, not to mention that it had only been three months since his Dao Foundation was destroyed!
“Such a strong Dao Intent, he’s not far from achieving the Greater Success Stage of the Dao Realm, what kind of remarkable fortune did Qin Nan acquire, to be able to recover so quickly…”
A peak Heaven Immortal who was only a step away from becoming a Peerless Ruler murmured with a blank face.
“Unfortunately, it’s unnecessary to use my Dao Intent against the likes of you.”
Qin Nan calmly said. The Dao Intent returned to his body. His right arm transformed into the icy Heaven-Shattering Saber.
“Now, it’s time for you to pay for your sins!”
Qin Nan wore a cold grin with a strong murderous intent.
Qin Nan had always distinguished his friends and foes clearly. Not only was You Hong disrespecting Princess Miao Miao and Jiang Bilan, he even tried to kill him in the duel. How could Qin Nan possibly show any mercy?
“Qin…Qin Nan…what do you want…I’m telling you, my father is Immortal Emperor Duling, if you kill me…”
You Hong began to panic. His face turned pale as his eyes were filled with fear.
Cheng Fang and the woman in a green dress shared the same reaction too. Their hearts were filled with deep remorse. If they knew Qin Nan had reforged the Dao Foundation, they would never involve themselves regardless of how close they were to You Hong.
“Die.”
Qin Nan had no intention to waste his time further. He slashed forward without hesitation.
“Qin Nan, don’t!”
Changkong was stunned as he sensed the formidable saber intent.
The slash seemed to have acc.u.mulated the force of the Heavens and Earth. Not only was it incredibly fast, the force it contained was unimaginable too. He had no chance of stopping the attack even if he was to intervene now.
“Sc.u.m, don’t you dare!”
In the nick of time, a thunderous voice exploded in the sky.
The sky within a few hundred li darkened rapidly. A tremendous figure stepped out from the crack of the rift.
The person was none other than Immortal Emperor Duling, You Hong’s father!
Qin Nan was startled. He lifted his gaze.
“Qin Nan, how bold of you, you dare to harm cultivators of the same faction as you, what you are doing is unforgivable! You better let You Hong and the others go at once, and come with me to the Patriarch to confess your sins!”
Immortal Emperor Duling snapped. Each of his words was like the great law that one would subconsciously obey.
However, Qin Nan was not affected by the words at all. He wore a disdainful look.
“What if I don’t let them go?”
