Peerless Battle Spirit

Chapter 1290 - Fei Hong, Shi Ang

Time gradually passed. After the period it took eight incense sticks to burn, Martial Monarch Ling Yue who was leading in front came to a stop and landed on the ground.

"It's deep inside the lake."

Ling Yue withdrew his aura and said with a solemn expression.

"Mm?"

Qin Nan glanced ahead, before raising his brows slightly.

Ahead of them lay a lake that covered an area with a circumference of over a thousand li. For some reason, crystal-like snowflakes the size of a palm were floating on the lake's surface, resulting in a stunning view.

However, there were terrifying beasts sleeping deep inside the lake. There were forty-eight of them in total.

In addition to that, Qin Nan had also discovered with his left eye that the forty-eight beasts were actually forming a magical formation. If anyone were to infiltrate the lake, not only would the forty-eight beasts awaken, but the formation would be activated too.

When that happened, even a fifth-layer Martial Monarch would have trouble surviving in the lake.

"Wait here, I'll go take a look."

Qin Nan advised. His eye emitted a blue flicker as he was about to step into the lake.

"Mm, all the best."

Ling Yue did not disregard it.

He had been willing to team up with Qin Nan because of his outstanding eye-technique.

With such remarkable eye-technique, it would not be too much of a problem for Qin Nan to crack the formation in the lake.

"Stop it right there."

A loud roar appeared from the distance all of a sudden.

Qin Nan and Ling Yue frowned, before turning their heads toward the voice.

They immediately saw five powerful figures heading toward them at a shocking pace, leaving trails of wind behind.

The titles of the five figures were Fei Hong, Fei Ang, Shi Su, Shi Qian, and Shi Kun. Their cultivations were not weak, as Fei Ang, Shi Qian, and Shi Kun were fifth-layer Martial Monarchs, while Fei Hong and Shi Su were third-layer Martial Monarchs.

Within the blink of an eye, the five figures had landed at the lake's shore.

"Senior, I don't know them, I swear. They must have gotten the map from Old Man Taia too, or robbed it from someone else..."

Ling Yue immediately transmitted his voice to explain himself as he was afraid that Qin Nan would misunderstand the situation.

"You two, I'll give you three breaths' time to leave this place. Otherwise, we won't go easy on you."

To their surprise, Fei Hong and Shi Ang, the two third-layer Martial Monarchs among the group of five stepped forward and demanded with cold voices.

Even though their expressions and faces were hidden, anyone could easily sense the pride inside their bones from their words.

"Senior, we should leave now, this Fei Hong and Shi Ang are most likely people with a formidable background from the Eight Ancient Tribes, the Six Great Forbidden Grounds, or the Three Great Factions. Otherwise, they wouldn't be escorted by three fifth-layer Martial Monarchs."

Ling Yue's expression changed as he transmitted his voice.

Everyone knew that the Three Great Factions, Six Great Forbidden Grounds, Eight Ancient Tribes, and other factions would usually send out experts to escort the geniuses with great potential in the Abstruse God Space, just so they could obtain the Abstruse God Pieces easily.

This was obviously the case for this Fei Hong and Shi Ang.

"Why should we leave? There's a treasure here, so we'll compete for it fairly."

Qin Nan calmly said as if he did not hear Ling Yue's warning. He turned around and stepped toward the lake.

"Senior, you..."

Ling Yue was stunned.

He never thought Qin Nan would give such response.

In terms of strength, their side was obviously weaker. Besides, their opponents also had a formidable background.

"Mm?"

Fei Hong, Shi Ang, and the others were startled.

Obviously, they never expected a mere first-layer Martial Monarch would ignore them.

"Idiot."

Fei Hong and Shi Ang quickly collected their thoughts. When they saw Qin Nan walking on the lake, they immediately wore a cold grin, without showing any intention of attacking.

They clearly knew of the existence of the Beast Killing Formation at the bottom of the lake. Once it was activated, even a fifth-layer Martial Monarch would have a hard time resisting it.

As such, they had failed to retrieve the treasure in the lake. They had no choice but to return to their clan to seek help from the three experts.

However, Fei Hong, Shi Ang, and the rest of their crew were astonished.

Qin Nan was walking steadily on the lake as if he were walking on the land. He continued to move forward, while the beasts in the lake were still deeply asleep, not aware of his presence.

"Did he actually see through the formation? Such an impressive eye-technique. No wonder he dared to step onto the lake with a mere cultivation of the first-layer Martial Monarch Realm."

"However, how dare you not treat our words seriously just because you have some capabilities?"

Fei Hong and Shi Ang collected their thoughts, whose expressions became dark.

With their identities and status, since when had a mere first-layer Martial Monarch dared to ignore them?

If they were in the half-God region, some seventh-layer Martial Monarchs or even eighth-layer Martial Monarchs would treat them with extreme respect instead of ignoring their presences!

"Wake up!"

Fei Hong and Shi Ang's eyes flickered as they recalled something. They simultaneously uttered a loud roar.

The roar served as a great thunder striking the surface of the lake, shattering the snowflakes floating on it.

"Crap."

Ling Yue was dumbfounded.

He did not expect these people would be so vicious as to do something so unethical.

Qin Nan who was walking on the lake came to a stop, as his eyes flickered coldly.

Buzz!

The calm lake began to tremble all of a sudden.

One terrifying aura after another began to awaken deep inside the lake.

ROAR!

A while later, the forty-eight terrifying beasts were fully awakened, who all opened their mouths and uttered deafening roars, blasting the water apart.

Their bloodshot eyes were glaring at Qin Nan with strong murderous intent.

"Human, how dare you trespass on the Snow Fate Lake—die!"

Following a thunderous roar, the lake's surface began to explode, as the forty-eight terrifying beasts unleashed powerful attacks. Meanwhile, the Beast Killing Formation was fully activated too.

The entire place had turned into a murderous trap.

"HAHAHA, I can't wait to see how you're going to handle this?"

Fei Hong and Shi Ang burst out laughing seeing this, whose faces were filled with disdain.

This was what he deserved for ignoring their presence and disobeying their demands.

Now that the forty-eight beasts had been awakened, he would surely die unless he had some extraordinary trump card up his sleeves.
