Peerless Battle Spirit

“What’s happening?”

“Why is Qin Nan asking to fight Tang Tianjun and Lu Gufeng?”

The cultivators below the mountains were startled before they even recovered from the astonishment of watching the previous battle.

It was understandable for Qin Nan to target Yin Yi, Zong Chang, and Lu Qingyin, since they were attempting to ambush Qin Nan while he was focusing on his breakthrough.

However, why was Qin Nan targeting Tang Tianjun and Lu Gufeng now?

Was Qin Nan planning to keep them busy so Jiang Ni could claim the rest of the Fruits of the Heavens and Earth?

“Qin Nan, the Peerless Rulers have left. There’s no need for us to join hands any further. You don’t have to help me. Besides, I’ll attack you once I’ve claimed the Fruits of the Heavens and Earth too,” Jiang Ni said with a frown.

“You’ve misunderstood me. I’m fighting them for my sake. If you’re willing, you can fight me together with them too,” Qin Nan said with a calm smile.

He was constantly brimming with battle intents which were influencing the surroundings.

Lu Gufeng was the number one Exceptional Genius of the Reincarnation Sect while Tang Tianjun was the number one Exceptional Genius of the Sky-Inheriting Sect. He had yet to claim the complete Arts of Dao Seeking of these two factions.

He did not challenge Jiang Ni to a duel since he had already captured Gong Wuhua. Gong Wuhua was an Exceptional Genius of the Extreme Living Gate, thus he would have the complete Scriptures of the Ultimate Life Dao.

“That’s fine then, go ahead and challenge the others. I won’t fight you yet.”

Jiang Ni’s expression remained calm. His sword turned into blue lotuses falling at Meng Jinxian, Gu Xiaoyao, and the other Exceptional Geniuses from the sky.

“Since you want…to fight me…then I shall…witness the strength…of the successor…of the Immortals…”

Lu Gufeng was extremely stubborn when it came to his habit of only saying three words at a time. It took him some time just to finish a short sentence. Many people twisted their lips after noticing his habit.

It significantly obstructed the tense atmosphere of the calm before a storm.

“Should I fight him…”

Tang Tianjun’s eyes flickered.

Usually, he would reject the challenge without any hesitation. However, he was extremely fond of the three Fruits of the Heavens and Earth in Qin Nan’s hands.

“I’m not the only one interested in the Fruits of the Heavens and Earth. The others should be sharing the same thought as me too. Qin Nan is strong, but he had already expended a lot of his energy. Besides…”

Tang Tianjun quickly thought and made his decision. He chuckled, “How could I not accept it since Cultivator Qin Nan has asked in person?”

He immediately displayed his outstanding strength. His Dao intent surged with great power as an illusionary ancient boulder emerged from his back to resist the overwhelming presence of the Divine Battle Spirit and the illusionary figure of the Divine God of Battle.

Lu Gufeng made his move too. His eyes became deep and hollow as he activated the Art of Dao Seeking. The will of Reincarnation summoned three swords in the air.

Qin Nan’s Lord of All Worlds and the mysterious figure were utterly terrifying, but unlike Yin Yi and Lu Qingyin, he had achieved the Peerless Ruler Realm. He was able to utilize the true strength of the Flesh of Reincarnation.

“Fellow cultivators, why aren’t you attacking too? It might be a problem for Lu Gufeng and I to defeat Qin Nan knowing his strength!”

Tang Tianjun quickly transmitted his thoughts.

The Exceptional Geniuses immediately considered their odds.

“Qin Nan, I must have a showdown with you today!”

“Give us back Senior Brother Zong!”

Zhu Yan, Gu Feng, the Exceptional Geniuses, and the Peerless Geniuses and peak Heaven Immortals of the Illusionary Immortal Dao Gate, Extreme Living Gate, and Sanqing Ancient Sect turned into rays of light charging at Qin Nan.

Some were planning to compete with Qin Nan’s flames, some were using it as an opportunity for a breakthrough, while the rest were looking for revenge.

However, most importantly, they were all after the three Fruits of the Heavens and Earth.

If the Tree of Wonderful Fruit did not have some of the fruits and the mysterious object left, Jiang Ni, Meng Jinxian, Gu Xiaoyao, and the rest would pick on Qin Nan too.

Qin Nan was most likely going to be everyone’s target.

“Qin Nan is in deep trouble!”

“If I were him, I would leave immediately after defeating Yin Yi and the others!”

“I wonder what Qin Nan is trying to achieve. Perhaps he misjudged the situation. He didn’t think the others will attack him too after he challenged Lu Gufeng and Tang Tianjun to a duel!”

The cultivators below the mountain shook their heads.

Qin Nan’s strength was rather impressive, but the formation he was up against was a lot tougher than Yin Yi and the others too.

“Why did that idiot have to stir up so much trouble again?”

The Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor let out a sigh.

“Humph, it’s just a bunch of Exceptional Geniuses. What is there to be afraid of? Let’s go help Qin Nan, with my help…”

Xiu Shenliang was trembling in fear, yet his eyes were filled with disdain.

“Help my ass! He asked for it himself, it’s none of our concern!”

The Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor slapped Xiu Shenliang on the head. He suddenly thought of something. He let out a weird laugh as he rushed to the foot of the mountain.

“Hand them over now, Qin Nan is my brother, if you dare to resist, I’ll ask him to take care of you!”

They had no chance of competing for the Fruits of the Heavens and Earth, but the whole mountain was full of treasure still.

While they were using Qin Nan’s name to trick the others, the battle between Jiang Ni, Meng Jinxian, Gu Xiaoyao, and the Exceptional Geniuses took place, the same did the battle involving Qin Nan, Lu Gufeng, Tang Tianjun, Zhu Yan, and the others.

“Battle Dao Immortal Manuscript, Dao-Jolting Saber Art!”

Qin Nan stood under the Divine Battle Spirit and the illusionary figure of the Divine God of Battle. He unleashed wisps of saber intents in all directions. A strong saber aura continued to encapsulate him.

“Summon the Flame Progenitor!”

“The Guardian Beast of the Floating Tomb!”

Zhu Yan, Gu Feng, and the Exceptional Geniuses utilized their moves. The former transformed into a titan of flames while the latter summoned an ancient beast with three heads that were wrapped in pitch-black chains.

Among them, Zhu Yan and Lu Gufeng had grabbed the most attention.

“Great, here is my chance!”

Tang Tianjun’s eyes glittered. He quickly performed a hand seal.

“Inheriting the will of the sky to set a boulder here, sealing the spirit of living creatures!”

Tang Tianjun performed a series of hand seals. His figure flickered in the rift. He flicked his finger when he saw Lu Gufeng, Zhu Yan, and the others surrounding Qin Nan.

The illusionary ancient boulder behind him turned into a light dot and entered Qin Nan’s Divine Sense at an insane speed.

He was planning to seal off Qin Nan’s soul!

Even if he failed to seal it off, it would inflict serious damage to Qin Nan’s soul, thus weakening him!
