Peerless Battle Spirit

Qin Nan was totally clueless about the sequence taking place.

His consciousness was sinking into a deep abyss like a heavy rock.

"Wake up."

Suddenly, he heard a loud voice. It felt like a giant golden hand reaching into the abyss, grabbing his consciousness and pulled it back into the body.

"Gasp."

Qin Nan breathed heavily as his eyes sprang open. He could still feel the enormous pain from before.

"Copper mirror, you have my thanks."

After Qin Nan got used to the pain a few moments later, he discovered Old Man Chan Ming's corpse lying not far away and immediately brought his fists together at the glamorous icy figure.

He would not be able to survive without the copper mirror's help.

"Do you remember I've mentioned that there's another level after mastering the four Extremities?"

The icy figure turned around and looked at Qin Nan. Even though he could not see her appearance clearly, somehow he still felt like he was stunned by his beauty.

"I do, what about it?"

Qin Nan calmed his thoughts and asked.

"That level is extremely vague and obscure. Even in the vast Nine Heavens, only a few have managed to achieve it. Initially, even reaching the level's doorstep was harder than ascending the Heavens. The chance is almost zero, but now, your chance has arrived."

The icy figure paused briefly before she added, "Unleash your Martial Spirit."

"My Martial Spirit?"

Qin Nan was astounded.

The Martial Spirit of every cultivator of the Canglan Continent was located deep within their bodies. His Divine Battle Spirit was no exception.

He had come to the Nine Heavens in his spirit form, how could he summon his Martial Spirit?

Could it be...

As a thought crossed Qin Nan's mind, he immediately uttered the command without hesitation, "Martial Spirit, unleash!"

BANG!

A magnificent blue glow burst out from his back. Even though the illusionary figure of the Divine Battle Spirit did not appear, the blue glow continued to unleash a terrifying presence that swept the surroundings like a storm.

The whole place trembled slightly. The eerie, pitch-black trees swayed in the absence of wind.

Even the ancient black altar not far away from Qin Nan was shivering as if it had encountered something terrifying.

"This..."

Qin Nan immediately wore a confused gaze.

The scene was utterly different than the usual scene when he unleashed the Divine Battle Spirit at the Canglan Continent.

"Qin Nan, the thing is from Nine Heavens. It's not a Martial Spirit, but the soul of the Divine God of Battle. In other words, you have two souls from the very beginning."

"Your cultivation is still too weak to completely summon it."

The glamorous icy figure said coldly staring at the magnificent blue glow.

"The soul of the Divine God of Battle? Then why does it have the light rays of a Martial Spirit in the Canglan Continent? Why can it level up based on the levels of a Martial Spirit?"

Qin Nan asked upon hearing the words.

Normally, there was no way he could use his second soul as a Martial Spirit.

"The Martial Spirits in the Canglan Continent were born after South-Heaven Gate and Heaven God Canglan modified the rules of cultivation. How hard is it for the Divine Battle Spirit to adapt to those rules?" said the icy figure "The Divine Battle Spirit must have done so purposely, just so you can grow and move forward on the path of cultivation one step at a time."

Qin Nan's heart was startled.

He immediately recalled the left eye of the Divine God of Battle, Sacred Leader Qinglong, Heaven-Shattering Saber and the flesh of the Divine God of Battle deep inside the South-Heaven Gate.

Together with this Divine Battle Spirit, it seemed like the existence known as the Divine God of Battle had set everything up since the beginning, guiding him one step at a time and helping him.

He did not just master the four Extremities on his own. The assistance from the Divine God of Battle was crucial to him too.

"Copper mirror, if you know so much..." Qin Nan took a deep breath after some time and said, "Does that mean you know the Divine God of Battle's real identity? Was he a Heaven God Realm expert in the Nine Heavens?"

He knew the Divine God of Battle had come from the Nine Heavens. He clearly remembered the words that the left eye of the Divine God of Battle had spoken to him.

He had kept the words in his heart, but now, he was keen to learn the Divine God of Battle's identity.

He wanted to understand why the Divine God of Battle had chosen him among the countless cultivators.

"A Heaven God Realm expert? Qin Nan, you have to realize that a person's title doesn't really represent their cultivation. For example, people called me Empress Feiyue, but for my cultivation, killing a Heaven God is as easy as flipping my hand."

The icy figure's tone became stern, "As for the Divine God of Battle's real identity, now is not the time to tell you yet. I can't tell you. Otherwise, you'll be in grave trouble."

She did not tell Qin Nan, because if the Divine God of Battle's real name was mentioned in this world, the whole place would face destruction within a hundred breaths.

Every life form would die, whether it was a Heaven God or a Martial Monarch.

The real name of the Divine God of Battle was treated as a forbidden name in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm. Despite her peerless cultivation, even she did not dare to mention the name easily.

"Grave trouble?"

For some reason, Qin Nan suddenly felt a ripple in his heart.

He had a strange feeling that once he knew the Divine God of Battle's real identity, it would help him to remember something extremely important to him.

"We'll discuss this sometime later. Right now, you can use your will to communicate with the Divine Battle Spirit and try cultivating with it."

The icy figure collected her thoughts and said.

"Cultivating huh?"

The strange feeling in Qin Nan's heart immediately vanished. He did not overthink it and proceeded to communicate with the Divine Battle Spirit.

Buzz!

The magnificent blue glow on his back became restless like boiling water, as wisps of absorbing force traveled deep into the Dao of the Heavens and Earth in the form of invisible lines.

Wisps of terrifying power were slowly nurtured inside Qin Nan's body. Even though its amount was scarce, it was able to instantly suppress the crimson-golden monarch force he acquired from achieving the top one Martial Monarch of all times.

Qin Nan was extremely familiar with the power. It was the same as the Divine Battle Force that Sacred Leader Qinglong had given him when he was in the middle of the Monarch Horoscope Contest.

He had relied on the Divine Battle Force to acquired the wisps of primary monarch force from the Monarch Horoscopes.

Otherwise, he would not have the chance to achieve the Martial Monarch Realm on his own.

"You can only acquire this Divine Battle Force through the Divine God of Battle's soul." The icy figure's eyes flickered as she spoke, "Once you combine the Divine Battle Force with the monarch force and rank up to the Martial God Realm, you surely have the chance to probe the next level."
