Peerless Battle Spirit

Qin Nan looked in the direction Doom was referring to.

He did find strange markings in a corner of the chamber.

“Doom, what level of cultivation can you reach with your full strength now?” Qin Nan asked instead of making his move.

“Hehe, kid, don’t you worry. Even though I’ve only recovered a tenth of my full strength, my perfection of the Dao Realm is beyond your imagination. I won’t have trouble fending off ordinary Peerless Rulers in the Greater Success Stage,” Doom said proudly.

His strength was not that impressive in the Realm of the Primordial Blood since he had just fully comprehended the Dao Realm. He could not utilize his strength still.

“That’s great.”

Qin Nan raised his hand and directed his immortal force into the markings. A force suddenly burst out from them and encapsulated him.

A few moments later, Qin Nan found himself in an unfamiliar place.

He noticed several ancient mountains surrounding him, from which cries of beasts were sounding.

Under his feet was a spacious, dilapidated dojo. Six broken palaces covered in cracks and a dim light stood in the distance.

Buzz buzz buzz!

Many Black Immortal Venomous Insects appeared from the mountains nearby, each holding a mysterious stone with a strange glow as they flew to the palace in the middle.

Qin Nan observed them with the Immortal Eyes of the Divine God of Battle. His eyes glittered following a glance.

He sensed a mysterious force inside the palace. It felt like his vision was being sucked into a swamp, preventing him from seeing it clearly.

Qin Nan took a deep breath. He withdrew his aura and sneaked closer to the palace.

“There’s a huge crack over there.”

Qin Nan locked his gaze on the top right corner of the palace after a brief scan. He jumped onto the palace and peeked into the crack.

His eyes widened following a quick glance.

Inside the enormous palace was a faint-blue altar over twenty zhang tall and nine zhang wide.

The venomous insects were tossing the mysterious stones into the altar.

Apart from it, a figure was sitting on each side of the altar. Their auras were immeasurable like a deep ocean.

All four of them were Peerless Rulers in the Greater Success Stage. The one leading them was Immortal Emperor Gushi, one of the Three Great Peerless Rulers!

“Qin Nan, I think they are constructing the Realm-Crossing Altar of the Nine Deities,” Doom blurted out in shock.

“What’s that?”

Doom immediately explained, “There are many ways to return to the Secondary Lower Realm from the Primary Upper Realm. One of them is through this altar.”

Qin Nan’s eyes glittered.

He had been wondering if he should return to the Secondary Lower Realm to visit his father, Longhu, Sima Kong, and the others.

However, why were they interested in going to the Secondary Lower Realm?

Did they ascend from the Secondary Lower Realm too?

“It’s very simple, even though the cultivation of the people that went to the Secondary Lower Realm from the Primary Upper Realm is greatly suppressed, their Martial Art Mastery and knowledge easily surpassed the cultivators in the Secondary Lower Realm.”

“Therefore, many cultivators in the Primary Upper Realm will gladly go to the Secondary Lower Realm to establish their factions and become a great authority to enjoy the power and fame. They would rather be a chicken’s head than a phoenix’s tail,” Doom said.

Qin Nan frowned upon hearing the explanation.

The people that Doom mentioned were normally cultivators without ambition, but Immortal Emperor Gushi was once an Exceptional Genius. He even colluded with the Ancient Taboo to obtain the Fruits of the Heavens and Earth. He was determined to kill many Exceptional Geniuses just to achieve his goals.

Why would a person like him be willing to go to the Secondary Lower Realm?

“Damn it, what kind of shitty altar is this? I’ve been here for half a month, yet why aren’t we done yet?” a Peerless Ruler whose face was covered in scars suddenly grumbled impatiently.

Qin Nan suddenly tensed.

“Nian Wang, be quiet, you are going to suffer the consequences if you disturb Gushi,” another Peerless Ruler covered in ancient talismans said calmly.

“Gushi? Do you really think I’m afraid of him? Over the time we are here…”

The Peerless Ruler called Nian Wang suddenly unleashed a tremendous aura. He turned into a blinding ray surging at Qin Nan at a shocking pace.

“Seal of the Great Fiend!”

Nian Wang flung his hand while emitting a strong demonic aura.

“Dao-Melting Immortal Flames!”

Qin Nan was long prepared for it. Flames burst out from his body to resist the seal, preventing it from moving any closer.

“You’re pretty smart, you knew we have noticed you!”

Nian Wang raised his brows and asked curiously, “Kid, which faction are you from?”

The other two Peerless Rulers arrived beside Nian Wang and looked at Qin Nan.

Before Qin Nan could speak, Immortal Emperor Gushi opened his eyes and spoke with a hoarse voice.

“He must have followed the trail left by my venomous insects. I happen to be needing some blood of an Immortal Emperor too…Qin Nan?”

Immortal Emperor Gushi immediately saw through Qin Nan’s disguise and saw the familiar blood hair.

His face was immediately filled with astonishment.

“What? You are Qin Nan, the successor of the Immortals?”

Nian Wang and the other two Peerless Rulers were dumbfounded too.

They did not expect the reputable Qin Nan to show up here.

“Gushi, it’s been a while.”

Qin Nan reclaimed his true appearance with a calm smile. His right hand turned into the Heaven-Shattering Saber. A formidable saber intent immediately surged in all directions.

“HAHAHA, Qin Nan, do you really choose the path of Hell when you could have walked the path of Heavens?”

Immortal Emperor Gushi burst out laughing as he collected his thoughts. His eyes flickered passionately, “You still have the three Fruits of the Heavens and Earth, don’t you?”

Nian Wang and the two Peerless Rulers were startled.

Those were three Fruits of the Heavens and Earth. Either of them would eventually master the Dao Realm if they could get their hands on the fruits.

“I’m sorry, I’ve already consumed them,” Qin Nan said smilingly.

“You consumed them?”

Immortal Emperor Gushi’s expression stiffened. He said with a cold grin, “You’re lying. If you did, why didn’t you master the Dao Realm still? Enough talk, you’re going to die here today!”

Countless Black Immortal Venomous Insects immediately locked their gaze on Qin Nan and lunged at him menacingly like black rays of light.
