Peerless Battle Spirit

t

They never thought that the two half-Martial Monarch Realm experts would appear at this moment.

However, the young man with the demonic aura and the others immediately collected their thoughts.

The return of the two half-Martial Monarch Realm experts implied that they had killed Qin Nan and the five Martial Sacred Realm cultivators!

“If they are dead, doesn’t that mean the treasure of the Heaven-Shattering Martial Monarch, the succession of the half-Martial God, and the remaining treasures from the ancient temple are all ours?”

The young man and the rest of the geniuses came to the same realization.

Even their blood began to boil and their hearts began to race at that instant. They could not wait to search for the bodies of Qin Nan and his crew!

Suddenly, a soft buzz echoed in the young man’s head.

The excited young man’s face stiffened and was filled with disbelief as if a bucket of cold water had been poured onto him from above.

The stream of demonic Qi he planted was erased?

It would normally remain even if the host were dead!

Did that mean…

Qin Nan was still alive?

He survived the attacks of two half-Martial Monarch Realm experts?

“What happened?” Many geniuses could not help but ask when they saw his reaction.

“Qin…Qin Nan…he’s…he’s not dead!”

The young man squeezed the words out from the gaps in his teeth before his expression became dark.

The crowd was stunned hearing this.

Qin Nan was still alive after being attacked by two half-Martial Monarch Realm experts?

Did that mean they had no way of retrieving the treasures now?

At that instant, following a loud roar, the two half-Martial Monarch Realm experts charged in their direction with a tremendous murderous aura.

Not only did their plan fail; they had to suffer the wrath of two half-Martial Monarchs.

…Meanwhile, in the woods of the Resplendent Land…

Qin Nan quickly gathered his focus when he heard the voice in his mind.

Apart from the copper mirror, an illusionary figure was also floating inside his Divine Sense, which was emitting a sharp flicker. Despite only being a stream of will, he looked similar to a peerless divine saber.

Qin Nan was startled.

He was a saber artist, thus he could easily sense the figure had an outstanding mastery in saber arts.

Even the Thousand Light Saber Monarch, the Extraordinary Saber Monarch, or even the Sect-Protecting Godly Saber could not match his strength.

“Senior, you know about the Tribulation of Three Lifetimes too?” Qin Nan took a deep breath before asking in a probing manner.

“Hehe, that’s not why I’m here.” The illusionary figure waved his hand and said in an imperious tone, “I’m the Sky-Desolating Saber Monarch from eight thousand years ago! I’ve nothing to lose after I died, but I’m not willing to let my self-invented saber art disappear just like that. As such, I’ve sealed my will inside the metal piece, and it would only be awakened after being triggered by a powerful saber intent!”

This was the reason why Qin Nan was unable to activate the metal piece with the fire, etc.

The Sky-Desolating Saber Monarch cast a sharp glance toward Qin Nan and said, “Kid, since you possess such an extraordinary saber, your talent couldn’t be bad, thus you’re qualified to accept my trial to comprehend the Sky-Desolating Saber Art! Are you willing to take the challenge?”

A great pressure burst out from the illusionary figure, as if an ancient giant was asking him a question.

Qin Nan entirely understood now.

This explained why he sensed the metal piece was useful for him, as it contained the succession of a saber art.

However, he did not seem excited or happy, but asked in a calm tone under the pressure instead, “Senior Sky-Desolating, I do need a saber art, but I would like to know—how strong was your saber art?”

Qin Nan currently possessed outstanding movement techniques, nine Martial Trees, the Divine Battle Spirit that could suppress anything, the left arm of the Divine God of Battle, and the Destruction Domain.

The Destruction Domain might be useful for offensive purposes, but it was still not enough to meet Qin Nan’s expectations.

What Qin Nan needed the most was a saber art that was able to unleash the full potential of the Heaven-Shattering Saber.

After all, he was a saber artist.

Qin Nan had stumbled into many saber arts invented by Martial Monarchs since he had come to the Middle Continent. He had even spent three whole days learning at the Heaven-Saber Sect. Why hadn’t he started practising a saber art yet?

The reason was that if he were to start learning a saber art, it must be extremely powerful!

He needed a very powerful saber art. There was the option of inventing it himself, but with Qin Nan’s current Martial Skill Talent, although he could easily invent an ordinary saber art, he would not be able to invent one that could match his expectations.

As such, he had continued to search for a suitable saber art.

When the Sky-Desolating Saber Monarch offered to teach him a saber art, he would want to know how powerful it was before making his decision.

“HAHAHA!” The Sky-Desolating Saber Monarch burst out laughing, “Kid, my saber art will not let you down! Eight thousand years ago, there was a peerless Martial Skill that was undefeatable for a very long time. Even Martial Gods had trouble dealing with it, but my Sky-Desolating Saber Art was able to shatter it!”

The words were spoken with a strong confidence.

The confidence originated from his bones, the pride he had in the saber art!

Qin Nan was familiar with the pride, as if he were able to wage war against the Heavens and Earth. There was nothing he could not fight against, and nothing he could not win against.

“He’s speaking the truth. Even though he wasn’t the strongest cultivator eight thousand years ago, his saber art was indeed the strongest. You can go ahead and learn it.” The icy voice of the mysterious woman inside the mirror appeared.

“Senior, I’m willing to learn it. Can you please tell me how can I acquire the saber art?”

Qin Nan brought his hands together.

He had already made up his mind when he had sensed the pride of the Sky-Desolating Saber Monarch.

“It’s very simple, I’ll suppress your cultivation to the fifth-layer Martial Sacred Realm, and you’ll make your way to the Royal City of the Southern Continent and comprehend there! As for how long it will take, I don’t really have an answer for you. It might be three years, or one year, or even ten years!”

The Sky-Desolating Saber Monarch said.

“Mm?”

Qin Nan was startled.

He never thought the trial given by the Sky-Desolating Saber Monarch would be to suppress his cultivation and comprehend in the Royal City of the Southern Continent.

He initially thought he would use some method to validify his talent or cultivation.

“What is it? Are you scared? Do you really think it’s simple to obtain my Sky-Desolating Saber Art? I won’t force you if you’re not willing to do so.” The Sky-Desolating Saber Monarch uttered a hollow laugh without concealing his disdain in his tone.

“Senior, that’s not the case. It’s just my first time hearing such a unique trial.” Qin Nan displayed a calm smile.

Scared?

He didn’t really know what that felt like.

As the saying went, great opportunities would never return once they were missed.

He had been searching for a peerless saber art, and now the chance was right in front of him. Even if it meant traveling across an ocean of flames or a ten thousand zhang deep abyss, he would not hesitate to take it.

“I see.” The Sky-Desolating Saber Monarch nodded and calmly said, “Don’t worry, once you comprehended the Sky-Desolating Saber Art, you will be rewarded greatly! Alright, time is running out. Remember, if you choose to give up, please return the metal piece to the Resplendent Land.”

Although Qin Nan had a godly saber and was the senior’s Tribulation of Three Lifetimes, that did not mean the Sky-Desolating Saber Monarch would believe that Qin Nan would succeed in obtaining the Sky-Desolating Saber Art.

Talent was not the only thing that mattered in the trial.

Therefore, he needed to make sure that if Qin Nan failed, he would still be able to find a successor for his Sky-Desolating Saber Art, allowing it to shine continuously.

“I will keep that in mind.”

Qin Nan brought his fists together.

“Mm.”

The Sky-Desolating Saber Monarch nodded before he turned around, staring at the copper mirror with a complicated expression. Finally, he wore a smile as his figure slowly disappeared.
