Chapter 1698 – The Change to the Seven Forms
There was a total of two hundred and eighty-three cultivators on the dojo.
The number of Peerless Geniuses among them was only seventy-three.
“Kill!”
A few second and third-layer Human Immortals suddenly yelled and executed their Immortal Arts.
They were well aware that in order to increase their odds of winning the battle or lasting longer in it, they had to stir chaos first and fish slowly in the troubled water.
Strong murderous auras surged across the place.
Many cultivators were threatened by the surprising attacks. They had no choice but to fight back too.
A chaotic mixed battle began to take place.
Whoosh!
Many people shifted their attention toward Qin Nan simultaneously.
They included Wu Huisheng, Huangfu Hou, Sima Xunbei, Zhao Lijian, Sword God Wu Heng, Long Chan, and many other Peerless Geniuses and Human Immortals.
All of them had long wanted to fight Qin Nan. Some were simply obeying the orders of their superiors to come and kill him.
“Qin Nan is being targeted!”
Many spectators straightened their figures.
Even Meng Jiugong, the Peerless Rulers, and authorities set their eyes on him.
Qin Nan had surely grabbed everyone’s attention recently. They had long been waiting to witness his strength.
“Bliss, Red Zither, Ground Spirit, you three are pretty good at finding a gem. Did you three insist to protect him because you are fond of his talents?” the South World Immortal Emperor said calmly.
The Peerless Rulers of the Supreme Daoism factions laughed hollowly. The other Peerless Rulers seemed quite astounded before they fell into deep thoughts.
Envoy Feng Hua and Envoy Yue Jue acted like they did not hear what the man said, but Envoy Rong Wang glanced at the Bliss Immortal Emperor and his crew and harrumphed coldly.
The Bliss Immortal Emperor and his crew immediately wore grim looks.
Even though Qin Nan had abducted many Peerless Geniuses of the three Supreme Daoism factions that the envoys were representing, the envoys were still unaware of the details.
After all, these envoys would only place their attention on core disciples.
However, the words that the South World Immortal Emperor ‘accidentally’ said surely caught the three envoys’ attention. Envoy Rong Wang’s reaction had said it all.
“Qin Nan, be careful!”
The Bliss Immortal Emperor and his crew did not respond to the South World Immortal Emperor’s words. They softly transmitted their voice.
Among the spectators, apart from Wan Xiao who would occasionally look in his father’s direction was not paying full attention to the battle, Qiu Hong, Xu Xianzhi, and the Blood-Eye Human Immortal began to feel nervous too.
“Qin Nan, it’s quite a let down last time! My cultivation has evolved completely after the ascension. You better don’t disappoint me!”
Wu Huisheng’s eyes turned extremely sharp as his aura was awakened all of a sudden like an immortal sword that was in a deep slumber that lasted for thousands of years.
“Sigh, Qin Nan, I didn’t want to fight you, but those old folks threatened me that if I don’t do it, I am not allowed to enter my Senior Sisters’ room…”
Sima Xunbei wore a sorrowful look, yet he sounded like a lecher. However, the immortal glow emitting from his body had a strong aura.
The Peerless Rulers and the authorities slightly nodded. The Seven Elites of Heavens and Earth indeed possessed extraordinary strength.
Meanwhile, Huangfu Hou wore an icy look. He did not say a single word unlike the other two. He immediately made his move and performed hundreds of hand seals that spread frost across the area.
“Kill Qin Nan!”
Zhao Lijian, Long Chan, the Peerless Geniuses, and the rest of the Human Immortals unleashed their wills and directed their auras toward Qin Nan as they charged at him.
From afar, their figures were gradually enclosing Qin Nan from all directions like a web, leaving the man with no escape.
“Such a deadly setup!”
The spectators were astounded.
Even a peak Human Immortal would struggle to overcome the situation.
“You dare oppose our Supreme Daoism factions? What are you going to do now!?”
Heaven Immortal Wuchun, the Snow-Brow Heaven Immortal, and the other authorities let out hollow laughs.
Even though Qin Nan possessed extraordinary cultivation and had obtained the Heaven-Repairing Cauldron from the World of Yin and Yang, the man was either going to die or be severely injured today.
“Splendid!”
Under the crowd’s gaze, Qin Nan’s eyes burst into flames facing the approaching danger. He fully unleashed his cultivation. His aura soared into the clouds.
“Ninth-layer Human Immortal Realm?”
“He’s a ninth-layer Human Immortal?”
“Did his cultivation improve again after he ascended?”
The Peerless Rulers, authorities, and the cultivators were astounded.
They all knew that the cultivation of someone who had just ascended was proportional to the force that the person had accumulated prior to their ascension. However, the Tide of Ascension had only ended a few days ago, yet the man had already achieved the ninth-layer Human Immortal Realm. No one was able to achieve such astonishing feat in thousands of years.
“Ninth-layer Human Immortal Realm? Qin Nan, you never disappoint me!”
Wu Huisheng seemed overjoyed. His aura rose again as he moved swiftly. He performed a hand seal and unleashed wisps of immortal sword Qi to construct an ancient sword formation.
He had fought against Qin Nan before, thus he knew Qin Nan had the ability to show up all of a sudden. It was necessary for him to entrap Qin Nan first.
“Unstoppable Step!”
Qin Nan moved in the nick of time. He was planning to escape the ancient sword formation and dodge Huangfu Hou’s attack. He was aiming to take out Zhao Lijian, Long Chan, and the others first.
However, he was immediately startled when he was about to move.
He could feel an unimaginable force bursting out of his body that increased his speed to a ridiculous level.
Qin Nan escaped the ancient sword formation and Huangfu Hou’s attack following a whoosh. He even left the range of Zhao Lijian, Long Chan, and the others’ attacks.
Wu Huisheng, Huangfu Hou, Sima Xunbei, Zhao Lijian, and the others were stunned. They simply saw Qin Nan flickering past them like a lightning ray.
The man was so fast that they could barely see his faint afterimages along the trail.
“Such incredible speed!”
The cultivators, including the authorities, were astounded.
Even the eyes of the Peerless Rulers flickered with astonishment.
The speed that Qin Nan displayed was equivalent to a first-layer Earth Immortal.
“What happened? I know the force in my body is evolving when I was attempting to ascend, but it shouldn’t be so significant. Is it because of the Battle Dantian?”
A thought crossed Qin Nan’s mind.
The Battle Dantian had strengthened his battle intent, the Heaven-Shattering Saber, and the Eyes of the Divine God of Battle. Did it strengthen the seven Divine Battle Forms too?
“Let’s try it out!”
Qin Nan activated the Eyes of the Divine God of Battle and glanced at the cultivators.
Following it, he simply felt like everyone’s action had slowed down, allowing him to observe the weaknesses of his opponents.
