Peerless Battle Spirit

Chapter 1601 - Gathering of the Geniuses

At the entrance of a thirteen-story palace built with some kind of jade bone, many cultivators of various factions were entering the palace through it.

When Qin Nan and Qiu Hong arrived, the palace was fully crowded with people. There were a few hundred cultivators.

"Cultivator Qiu Hong, it's been a while!"

"Cultivator Qiu Hong, pleased to meet you!"

"Cultivator..."

In less than a breath, many gazes were focused on Qiu Hong, followed by several cultivators walking up smilingly.

As for Qin Nan, his presence was simply ignored.

"Go ahead, I'm fine on my own."

Qin Nan transmitted the thought. He found a corner and secretly activated the Golden Eyes of the Divine God of Battle to scan the place.

Most cultivators in the palace were the inner disciples of various factions, and some of them were elders.

There were only three Peerless Geniuses, including Qiu Hong.

One of them was a woman in a black robe. Her body was unleashing wisps of rotting, black aura. Her face was covered. No one dared to come a few zhang close to her.

The other Peerless Genius was a short-haired young man in a red robe, surrounded by many elders and geniuses. He had an impressive demeanor.

"This short-haired young man must be Master Wuding's successor, one of the two core disciples of the South World Immortal Emperor, Zhao Lijian."

Qin Nan was startled. He quickly activated the Dao Crystal and merged its power with his eyes.

A few moments later, he shook his head and withdrew his gaze.

Zhao Lijian's aura was like a mist as an unknown force had been inserted into his body, preventing Qin Nan from seeing through it.

Qin Nan would have to wait until Zhao Lijian showed his strength.

"Tsk tsk, oh Qiu Hong, it's been a month, yet why hasn't your cultivation improved still?"

A weird voice said.

Qin Nan and the cultivators followed the voice and saw a young man encapsulated within an immortal aura, with strange runes densely covering his forehead walking into the palace in the company of more than ten cultivators.

His gaze toward Qiu Hong displayed a hint of murderous intent.

He once competed with Qiu Hong for something, but not only did Qiu Hong not give him any face, he even set him up. Since then, he had been holding a grudge against him.

"Gao Yuanxian of the Heaven Illusionary Ancestor Sect is here!"

Some of the cultivators blurted out.

Gao Yuanxian was not a Peerless Genius. He had only mastered three of the Four Extremities, and his cultivation had only reached the Heaven God Realm.

However, his father was a Peerless Ruler of the Heaven Illusionary Ancestor Sect.

On top of that, the Peerless Ruler had been around earlier than the South World Immortal Emperor. He was quite reputable in the Shangxingtian Small Immortal Realm.

"So it's Cultivator Gao, I remember that it has been more than ten years since you've mastered three of the Four Extremities? Why haven't you mastered the Four Extremities still?"

Qiu Hong rebuked with an expressionless face.

"Cultivator Qiu, Brother Gao here is still fairly young, give him a few more years, I bet he won't have trouble mastering the Four Extremities."

Zhao Lijian said smilingly.

He was closer to Gao Yuanxian, thus it went without saying that he would side with Gao Yuanxian in a situation like this.

The other cultivators remained silent.

No one was willing to be caught in a conflict between the Peerless Geniuses, as they would surely suffer the consequences.

"Brother Zhao, it's been a while."

A pleasant voice came from outside the palace.

Xu Xianzhi whom Qin Nan met once before in a white dress was entering the palace with little hops. Her glamorous face was wearing a faint smile, stunning the crowd with her beauty.

"She too has mastered the Four Extremities?"

Qin Nan's eye flickered with astonishment.

The Vast Serene Immortal Flesh was as impressive as the rumors had mentioned. Xu Xianzhi had really become a Peerless Genius after achieving the Heaven God Realm.

"Xianzhi, come over here!"

Gao Yuanxian immediately wore a joyful look. He strutted toward Xu Xianzhi under the crowd's gaze.

Similar to Little Peng Emperor Wan Xiao, he had long been fond of her.

"Mm...Cultivator Qin Nan, you're here too?"

Xu Xianzhi's eyes flickered with a hint of disgust. However, her eyes glittered as soon as she saw Qin Nan among the crowd. She quickened her pace.

A pleasant scent swept toward Qin Nan.

After mastering the Four Extremities, not only was she prettier, her body also had a special scent that was soothing to smell.

Gao Yuanxian froze in his place. He turned toward Qin Nan.

Zhao Lijian and the rest of the crowd too looked at Qin Nan with astounded looks.

Even the famous Xu Xianzhi had taken the initiative to approach this man that had come here with Qiu Hong, could he be someone impressive too?

"I happened to come with Qiu Hong."

Qin Nan smilingly said.

"Is that so?"

Xu Xianzhi's eyes flickered cunningly. She stuck her lips to Qin Nan's ear and whispered, "Aren't you good at hiding your strength? You even killed the Underworld Prince."

When she learned the Underworld Prince had been murdered, she immediately asked Little Peng Emperor Wan Xiao about it, but the man was surprisingly quiet. She immediately arrived at a conclusion.

The Qin Nan was the same Qin Nan she knew too.

"Cultivator Qin Nan, right? May I know which faction you are from, and who is your master?"

Gao Yuanxian felt a fire burning in him when he saw Xu Xianzhi approaching Qin Nan flirtatiously.

He had known Xu Xianzhi for a long time, yet the woman had never treated him like that.

He was eager to learn who exactly was this Qin Nan that had appeared out of nowhere.

"Gao Yuanxian, you better watch yourself, if you dare offend my big brother, I swear I'll flip the table."

Qiu Hong's face turned cold.

He did not really care if Gao Yuanxian tried to pick on him, yet he would surely go all out if the man dared to involve Qin Nan.

Even though Brother Qin Nan's strength, identity, background were so much stronger than his, he still would not allow anyone to pick on his brother.

It was his bottom line.

"I'm just a nobody."

Qin Nan said while shaking his head.

"Flip a table? I will be waiting."

Gao Yuanxian did not seem to care. His gaze toward Qin Nan was filled with disdain.

He was now convinced that Qin Nan was definitely not someone popular. Otherwise, as Qiu Hong's brother, his name would have spread among the cultivators.

Qin Nan must have come to the gathering mainly because of Qiu Hong.

"Xianzhi, it's been more than a month since we last met, why don't we go over there and enjoy ourselves some drinks?"

Gao Yuanxian smiled and gestured.

"Brother Gao, we are already very familiar with one another. There's no need for us to catch up, but Cultivator Qin Nan and I have not met for a long time. I'm going to stay here and talk to him."

Xu Xianzhi slightly shook her head with glittering eyes.
