Chapter 1312 - Nightmare (Part Two)
"Damn, how are you guys so poor? Just a bunch of pills? How disappointing.
"Mm? You have some great stuff on you, thirty-seven Abstruse God Pieces and two maps. Not bad, not bad.
"Holy crap, you have fifty-six Abstruse God Pieces? That's impressive.
"Tsk tsk..."
Sima Kong mumbled as he robbed the cultivators. Together with the rich expressions on his face, it was a fairly hilarious sight.
Yet the hilarious sight did not ease the tension that existed between the Heavens and Earth.
This was especially so when Sima Kong finished taking all of their belongings and Qin Nan was approaching them taking one step at a time. Tu Di, Fei Hong, Shi Ang, and the others who were smashed into the pit collected their thoughts and snapped furiously.
"Duan Qing, how dare you hunt us down twice in a row! I swear on the name of my ancestors that I'll make you pay with your blood and make you suffer!"
Tu Di used all of his might to utter a roar into the sky.
"Duan Qing, from today onward, if I don't kill you, I'll..."
"Duan Qing, you..."
Fei Hong and Shi Ang yelled with their eyes burning in fury too.
Compared to the former, the two were even more furious since, including this time, they had been destroyed by Duan Qing three times in a row.
As the Young Masters of the ancient tribes and people who were ranked on the Genius Martial Monarchs Ranking, since when had they suffered such humiliation?
"That's enough."
Qin Nan's expression remained the same and before Fei Hong and Shi Ang could finish their sentences, he slashed forward with the Heaven-Shattering Saber in his hand, firing nine tremendous saber intents and shattering the nine figures into pieces.
"Three more times left."
Staring at the nine pits, Qin Nan withdrew his aura and mumbled, while the Heaven-Shattering Saber transformed back into his right arm.
He could not care less about how angry and how much they wanted to kill him. He only knew that the three had crossed his line and had almost hurt Jiang Bilan.
As such, no matter who they were, they would have to pay the price.
"Qin Nan, catch."
Sima Kong who had finished counting the loot threw Qin Nan a storage bag.
"Hehe, we've got a few new maps here and the places are not far from here, why don't we check them out?"
"Mm, let's go."
The two flew into the distance in the form of two rays of light.
Time gradually passed. Five days were gone within the blink of an eye.
During this period, Qin Nan and Sima Kong explored the places recorded on the maps as usual to collect the Abstruse God Pieces.
Qin Nan now had a total of two hundred and thirty Abstruse God Pieces.
However, unlike the last time, even after five days, Tu Di, Fei Hong, and Shi Ang did not return, as if they had given up.
Buzz.
At that instant, a vague buzz chimed in Qin Nan's mind.
The voice seemed to be coming from his flesh.
"Looks like something is happening in the Anti-Heaven Alliance. Sima Kong, I'll head back first. Wait for me here."
Qin Nan mumbled before telling Sima Kong about it. He set up a formation and activated the ancient key. His figure vanished into thin air.
A few breaths later, at the Anti-Heaven Alliance, Qin Nan who was sitting with his legs crossed inside a palace shuddered as his eyes opened slowly.
The moment he opened his eyes, he subconsciously activated his left eye and scanned the palace. When he discovered that everything was normal, he inspected his badge with his Divine Sense.
The buzz must be someone transmitting a message to him.
"Qin Nan, the Young Master of the Blood Tribe, the Blood Rune Martial Monarch, has arrived at the Anti-Heaven Alliance. Head to the Anti-Heaven Palace at once."
Martial Monarch Guiwu's voice appeared.
"Blood Rune Martial Monarch?"
Qin Nan frowned slightly. After a slight ponder, he decided to go and take a look.
From what he could remember, this Blood Rune Martial Monarch was ranked just below Tang Qingshan on the Genius Martial Monarchs Ranking.
As such, he would not mind seeing what this Blood Rune Martial Monarch was capable of.
As soon as Qin Nan left the place, he immediately discovered that the Anti-Heaven Alliance looked completely different. Many figures were flying around in the air, resulting in a lively sight.
When he had first arrived, the place had only looked like a rising faction, but now, it was definitely a formidable faction.
"I can't imagine what it's going to look like when we wage war against the South-Heaven Gate."
This thought crossed Qin Nan's mind as he went inside the Anti-Heaven Palace.
Inside the palace, Martial Monarch Guiwu, Martial Monarch Dongku, etc., along with half of the Martial Monarchs from the three ancient tribes had arrived.
Wines and delicacies were placed in front of the Martial Monarchs. They were drinking while chatting among one another and the atmosphere was rather friendly.
"So he's the Blood Rune Martial Monarch?"
Qin Nan glanced at a young man.
The young man was wearing a long black robe, whose eyes were blood red, with an overwhelming aura rumbling inside his body, resulting in a strong presence.
However, he could not help but notice that even though the Blood Rune Martial Monarch, the Qilin Flame Martial Monarch, and the Vast Skythunder Martial Monarch were trying to hide it, their expressions looked fairly gloomy, as if something was bothering them a lot.
Meanwhile, the Martial Monarchs became aware of Qin Nan's presence. Most of them turned around and glanced at him.
"Hall Leader Blood Rune, this is Hall Leader Qin Nan."
Martial Monarch Guiwu was the first to speak, who introduced Qin Nan with a smile.
"Hehe, Qin Nan, the only person who was appointed as Vice Hall Leader of the Anti-Heaven Palace when he was just a Martial Progenitor, how impressive."
The Vast Skythunder Martial Monarch spoke with a cold harrumph. Everyone could clearly hear the disdain in his tone.
The Qilin Flame Martial Monarch harrumphed coldly too, who unleashed his murderous intent without trying to conceal it.
They had been killed three times in a row by that goddammed Duan Qing in the Abstruse God Space, which had cost them a lot of resources. As such, they were in a very bad mood.
As a result, they were not in the mood to play nice with Qin Nan.
If the Anti-Heaven Alliance did not have the rule of prohibiting infighting, they would most likely have attacked and killed Qin Nan on the spot.
"Qin Nan, huh? You have ten breaths' time to consider handing over your spot as a Vice Hall Leader and I'll spare you your life."
The Blood Rune Martial Monarch gave Qin Nan a calm look while his figure was emitting a terrifying aura. The entire palace began to tremble slightly.
"Blood Rune Martial Monarch, you..."
Martial Monarch Guiwu and the others were startled.
They did not expect this Blood Rune Martial Monarch to be so reckless.
However, little did Martial Monarch Guiwu and the others know that the Blood Rune Martial Monarch had always been a hot-tempered man, not to mention the fact that he was in a very bad mood after he had been killed twice by Duan Qing.
As such, when he saw Qin Nan who had taken on the role of Vice Hall Leader that was supposed to be their Blood Tribe's, he immediately threatened Qin Nan without wasting any more time.
After all, the Blood Rune Martial Monarch had assumed Qin Nan to be a mere ant.
"Spare me my life?"
Qin Nan was startled before a grin surfaced on his face.
"I'm quite curious—is everyone from your Blood Tribe, Flame Tribe, and Lightning Tribe mentally challenged?"
