Peerless Battle Spirit

To Qin Nan, it felt like the spacious valley was immersed in silence.

Even though he was not Qiu Hong, the gentle gaze from the old man with sharp eyebrows strongly plucked the strings in his heart.

In this world, the old man and the martial uncle had relatively insignificant, petty cultivation.

However, what they had done was utterly impressive. They were not willing to become a burden to someone even when their lives were at stake.

A day as master, whole life as father.

Perhaps that was what the saying meant.

"Two seniors, and seven cultivators, although I'm unfamiliar with who you are, nor do I understand the relationship between you and Qiu Hong, but don't you worry, I'll let the name Qiu Hong become the three faction's nightmare."

Qin Nan clenched his fists. His eyes flickered with a terrifying glow.

"Pendants activate!"

Qin Nan did not hesitate further. He turned around and inserted a purple-golden pendant into the blue-copper pillar with a flick.

Following it, rays of light descended and encapsulated his figure, teleporting him away from the valley.

The old man and the others had exchanged their lives with the precious opportunity. He should not waste it.

"Crap!"

The eyes of Old Man Zi Xu and the others widened.

If Qiu Hong made it to the deepest part in the Drought Demon Immortal Tomb, there was nothing they could do.

"Patriarch..."

Old Man Zi Xu and the others felt like cold water had just poured onto them. Their anger completely dissipated as they cautiously transmitted their thoughts.

The main reason it had come down to this was because he was purposely torturing Qiu Hong. Otherwise, he could have threatened Qiu Hong with the lives of the cultivators they killed.

"Zi Xu! Even as a Human God, you still don't understand how to control yourself? Use the artifacts and blast the pillar open with brute force. Bring back the succession, otherwise, you will bear the consequences!"

In just a single breath, an imperious roar exploded in Zi Xu's mind.

As the competition for the succession of the Drought Demon Immortal Tomb was no longer the same as before, they had brought the heirloom artifact of their faction with them as a safety precaution.

After all, they assumed that Qiu Hong was only a bait that Old Man Chan Ming had sent out. If Old Man Chan Ming ended up acquiring the succession of the peak Heaven God Realm expert, it would be a great disaster to the three factions.

"Acknowledged!"

Old Man Zi Xu wiped the cold sweat covering his forehead. He exchanged glances with Human God Hunjian and Old Man Wugui beside him and simultaneously nodded.

"Han Mingli, set up formations to entrap the guardian spirits..."

"As for the rest of you, activate the precious artifact with us three..."

As the orders were given, three brilliant god glow appeared on the valley. The terrifying force slashed the blue-copper pillar like a few peerless swords.

Meanwhile, Qin Nan landed in a hall after a series of teleportation.

"They are attacking the blue-copper pillar?"

Qin Nan immediately checked the surroundings in the hall when he felt the ground trembling.

Even though the forbidding auras here were set up by a peak Heaven God Realm expert prior to his death, it was likely that they would not hold the three factions off considering that they had existed for over a few hundred years.

He must find the succession as soon as possible, to achieve the Martial God Realm and probe the next level.

The hall covered an area with a circumference of a thousand zhang. The walls were carved with huge, glowing drawings. They seemed to be illustrating the Drought Demon Heaven God's achievements.

At the center of the hall was a three-zhang long pond. The surroundings of the pond stood eight fresh golden candles. On the pond was a white-jade coffin covered in runes and a wisp of immortal aura.

Even though Qin Nan could not peek through it, his instinct told him that the eight candles and the pond were more obscure than the coffin.

"Hehe, a peak Martial Monarch Realm kid is the first to arrive here. Interesting."

Suddenly, a hoarse voice appeared from a corner in the hall. An old man with a hunchback walked out from the shadow in a little corner, revealing a crimson flicker from his eyes.

"Senior, you are..."

Qin Nan was startled. He brought his fists together and asked.

Even with his current cultivation, he failed to discover the old man's presence. It was likely that his cultivation had at least reached the Human God Realm.

"A man who has given Senior Drought Demon Heaven God a promise to guard his tomb," the old man in black robe glanced at Qin Nan and said, "You are very talented at your age. I don't want to trouble you. You won't have any chance to acquire the Drought Demon Succession, leave at once."

Coming to the deepest part of the tomb was not the only requirement to acquire the Drought Demon Succession.

"Senior, I've come here for the succession. How could I leave just like that?"

Qin Nan shook his head. Either way, he must try his best.

"Great courage, great character, but dumb!"

The old man's voice slightly turned cold when he heard Qin Nan's response, "If you insisted so, I will fulfill your wish. However, if you are not worthy, you will suffer severe injuries!"

"First, you must have two Drought Demon Purple-Golden Pendants and Five Drought Demon Red Jade Pendants to acquire the succession! Initially, the rule was to let the geniuses here fight one another, but you're the only one here..."

The old man's eyes flickered. He admired geniuses, but he disliked those who were full of themselves.

However, before he could finish, Qin Nan flicked his finger and took out all the pendants, leaving the old man with an astounded look.

"They are all in your hands? Does this mean the people of the three factions are all dead?"

In the past few hundred years, the most talented Martial God he stumbled into had only secured two purple-golden pendants and eight red jade pendants. Meanwhile, the person before him was only a peak Martial Monarch.

"Interesting, this is getting interesting, no wonder you're not willing to leave."

The old man was no ordinary person either. He quickly collected his thoughts and shook his head, "However, you won't be able to pass the second test. Although you possess the immortal root, you must also master three of the four Extremities."

In this world, only a few had mastered three of the four Extremities, and most of them were experts above the Human God Realm.

It was impossible for a mere Martial Monarch to reach the level.

BANG!

As soon as he finished the sentence, a magnificent aura burst out of Qin Nan's figure. It continued to rise and lit up the spacious hall in a blue-golden glow.

"Senior, apart from my monarch force that is now equivalent to the strength of the third-layer Martial God Realm after it evolved..." Qin Nan said calmly, "I've also mastered the four Extremities."

The short sentence exploded in the hall like a blasting thunder.
