Peerless Battle Spirit

"Crimson Emperor Saber Intent!"

Qin Nan combined with his saber into a scorching light and shattered the sword shadows looming over the place into pieces.

Following it, the power of the Impenetrable Sacred Flesh, the Art of the Immortal Demon, and the Dao Pattern merged and poured down formidably.

"Mm?"

Qin Nan immediately noticed the power was a little unfamiliar to him. He could no longer control it with ease. The power was a lot weaker too.

"Could it be the Art of the Immortal Demon had a little breakthrough when I lost my rationality, which ended up breaking the balance between them?"

A thought crossed Qin Nan's mind.

The Impenetrable Sacred Flesh and the Art of the Immortal Demon did not contradict one another previously, but they were both law-defying.

If one was stronger than the other, it would very likely suppress the other.

For example, if his Impenetrable Sacred Flesh had evolved into the Indestructible Flesh of Eternity earlier but he had only secured the first half of the Art of the Immortal Demon instead of the second half, he would not be able to merge their power.

"Buddhist Chants Entering the World!"

Cang instantly noticed Qin Nan's problem as if his eyes could see through everything. He switched to a different hand seal and reached out his finger.

Countless Buddhist scriptures surged at Qin Nan like a magnificent river.

Qin Nan's heart shuddered. The combined power in his body froze like it had just received a great blow.

"Art of Taiyan!"

Qin Nan swiftly moved and left several illusions behind.

"Sky-Ascending Sword Melody of the Rebellious Demon!"

Cang quickly followed. His ancient sword turned blood-red and unleashed a terrifying demonic figure. Evil chimes were occurring from the rift in the surroundings too.

Dong!

The power in Qin Nan's body shook vigorously. It completely disintegrated into the Impenetrable Sacred Flesh, the Art of the Immortal Demon, and the Dao Pattern.

The Art of the Immortal Demon fully unleashed its power, as if it had been provoked. If it had a soul, it would materialize and clash with the sword art.

Qin Nan's gaze sharpened.

Cang's intention was fairly obvious.

"What should I do now?" Qin Nan thought.

"Qin Nan!"

Zhou Xundao's voice appeared in his mind, "It seems like you have forgotten some of the basics. The saying 'to fuel war with warfare' simply means fighting and battles are the keys for you to become stronger."

"It's not a bad thing that you've encountered a formidable enemy. It's actually favorable for you, as you will be able to unleash your maximum potential and exceed your limits in blood and fire."

"Why is Cang insisting to fight you now?'

"The truth is, it's impossible for Cang to kill you with his current level of cultivation. He can only suppress you at most. He's treating you as a whetstone to sharpen himself. You will understand if you take a closer look at his back."

Qin Nan immediately adjusted his gaze.

He noticed the thirty-three maps of the Small Immortal Realms were flickering at times to release enormous power. Cang had obviously unleashed the full potential of the Art of the Heavenly Emperor.

"Senior, you are right. I should fuel war with warfare!"

Qin Nan immediately withdrew the Art of the Immortal Demon and the Dao Pattern.

He was planning to only use the Impenetrable Sacred Flesh!

"Jiaye, activate the Great Superfluous Formation!"

Qin Nan transmitted his thought and poured his Master Force into the Ownerless Heaven Pattern.

"Acknowledge!"

Jiaye sat with his legs crossed and performed seals with both hands.

The Ownerless Heaven Pattern stopped suppressing the two ancient Dao Seeking Weapons. It returned to Qin Nan's body as countless runes spread from it. Their mystical aura engulfed Qin Nan.

The Great Superfluous Formation was the strongest among the nine formations. Zhou Di had invented the formation himself to specifically evolve the Impenetrable Sacred Flesh into the Indestructible Flesh of Eternity.

Even though Qin Nan could only utilize three-tenths of it, its aura was still a great help for Qin Nan.

Qin Nan's goal was to upgrade the Impenetrable Sacred Flesh to the same level as the Art of the Immortal Demon!

"You reacted pretty quickly, but then again, it means you are a lot weaker now. Maybe I can overpower you and cripple you. Your gains wouldn't make up for the losses," Cang said with a smile. His voice was gentle like a drizzle.

"Cang, stop wasting your time, your words won't influence me!"

Qin Nan took a step and threw a punch forward. A bright sacred light burst out of his fist.

(Sigh), "I was offering you a kind reminder, yet you have treated me like that. How saddening!" Cang let out a sigh and shoved his hand forward. A tremendous power and rippling of the Rules collapsed onto Qin Nan as if he was receiving the wrath of the Heavens.

Qin Nan instantly found himself under shocking pressure. The alarm in his heart rang as a great chill ran down his spine, but he did not back away. However, he did not back away. He faced the attack fearlessly and threw a punch at it.

BANG BANG BANG!

Strong gusts of wind blew in all directions.

Qin Nan's breath and blood surged restlessly. His bones were crackling loudly. He could even taste blood in his mouth, but he swallowed it back forcibly.

"Heart-Slaying Slash!"

Qin Nan gathered all his will and slashed at Cang.

As Cang had mentioned, the battle onward was going to be unfavorable to Qin Nan. Not only was his sacred glow extremely dull, he was covered in injuries and blood too.

Princess Miao Miao, Jiang Bilan, Xue Mengyao, and the others were worried about Qin Nan, but they did not say a word as Qin Nan had already told them his plan.

Despite their worry, they knew all they had to do was to give Qin Nan their full support whenever he made up his mind.

Terrifying explosions echoed across the Third Forbidden Area. The loud blasts even extended out of the Third Forbidden Area to the nearby Forbidden Areas. The mysterious existences below the Ruler Realm backed away when they felt a shiver down their spine.

They wanted to observe the battle, but they did not have the guts to go any closer.

In addition to it, all kinds of intents had filled every corner of the Third Forbidden Area like a storm. Some of the stronger ones were even rooted in the rift. It would take more than a thousand years for them to dissipate.
