âYouâŚyou really have the Heaven-Shattering Saber?â
The masked man collected his thoughts and replied hesitantly.
He tried to sense his surroundings, but failed to detect anyone nearby, let alone the presence of the Heaven-Shattering Saber.
Most importantly, in his opinion, it was almost impossible to meet the requirements that his master had mentioned in the past. Therefore, he was dumbfounded after learning that the Heaven-Shattering Saber had found its successor.
âMm, Iâll use the Heaven-Shattering Saber to summon the crystal case here.â Qin Nan replied, âSenior, my cultivation is only at the first-layer Martial Progenitor Realm, thus I wouldnât stand a chance against them. Iâll need you to teleport me to the entrance of the Ancient Demon Abyss, is that possible?â
Qin Nan could feel his heart skipping a beat.
If the answer was no, his plan would be in vain.
âOnly the first-layer Martial Progenitor Realm? Youâre planning to jump into the Ancient Demon Abyss to hide from them?â The masked man instantly realized Qin Nanâs plan and replied, âI can teleport you to the entrance, but thereâs no way you can enter the Ancient Demon Abyss. Even Martial Monarch Realm experts would not dare to venture deep into it, let alone you. With your cultivation, you would surely die!â
He did not expect Qin Nan to have such a crazy thought.
Qin Nan was overjoyed hearing his answer. He straightened his face and said with a stern look, âSenior, Iâve got something thatâs able to protect me from the demonic aura. Itâs the only option I have! Senior, we have to try it. Thereâs no way I would let them take the treasure!â
âYouâŚâ
The masked man was left speechless by Qin Nanâs determination. His eyes flickered with astonishment. A mere first-layer Martial Progenitor was trying to use the Ancient Demon Abyss to escape from his powerful enemies. Everyone would definitely laugh at his foolish act once this was made known to the public.\nHowever, wasnât his master as insane as him too?
âQin Nan, are you sure?â The masked man said with a heavy tone.
âYes!â
Qin Nanâs voice appeared in his mind without any delay.
âVery well, I will teleport you to the entrance of the Ancient Demon Abyss, and will try my best to hold them off, but you are on your own after that.â The masked man halted before he said in a hopeful tone, âI hope you will survive!â
âSure!â
Qin Nan replied in a serious tone.
Meanwhile, the two geniuses and the Dark Tribute Progenitor continued to attack the masked man. They had no idea that Qin Nan had made a deal with the masked man.
âSeniorâŚIâm ready!â
Qin Nan took a deep breath and altered his appearance with the Mortal Appearance-Changing Technique, to avoid them seeing his true appearance. He uttered a grunt, causing his right arm to transform into the Heaven-Shattering Saber, which emitted a shocking saber intent.
His aura was entirely exposed.
âMm? Someoneâs here?â
The two geniuses and the Dark Tribute Progenitor immediately sensed his presence and were astounded. Obviously, they had not noticed someone there before!
How was that possible?
âCome!â
Qin Nan uttered a roar as the Heaven-Shattering Saber vibrated vigorously, as if it were summoning something.
âIs thatâââ The two geniuses and the Dark Tribute Progenitor turned their heads around. When they saw the saber in Qin Nanâs hand, their eyes were filled with disbelief. Most people would not recognize it, but it was extremely familiar to them.
It was the Heaven-Shattering Saber!
This young man who had appeared out of nowhere had the Heaven-Shattering Saber!
BANG!
Following this, a loud explosion took place in the masked manâs direction, as the mysterious crystal case flew out on its own and fired itself into Qin Nanâs hand.\nAs a matter of fact, Qin Nan had purposely shown the Heaven-Shattering Saber to astonish the two geniuses and the Dark Tribute Progenitor, causing them to hesitate so that the crystal case would not be interrupted.
âIâve got it!â
Qin Nan immediately stored the crystal case into his storage bag, before he dashed into the distance with a flicker.
âHow bold!â
The two geniuses and the Dark Tribute Progenitor instantly recovered and unleashed a shocking aura. Their figures appeared right above Qin Nan within a single breathâs time, and executed their terrifying moves.
Qin Nan was startled. His hair danced wildly.
Facing the attacks, it felt like he was tiny as an ant. There was no doubt that he would die instantly if they landed on him.
âHeaven-Shattering Treasure, hear my command and come toward me!â
The masked man made his move and performed a hand seal, causing a bright glow that enveloped Qin Nanâs figure.
Following a whoosh, Qin Nanâs figure vanished from the spot before appearing behind the masked man.
It turned out that the masked man was able to teleport him using the link between him and the Heaven-Shattering Treasure.
Qin Nan was finally able to see the entrance of the Ancient Demon Abyss below his feet. The presence of the demonic aura was overwhelming, concealing the depth of the chasm.
As the name stated, the abyss was like an ancient demon!
There was no end to the chasm!
âSenior, thank you!â
Without hesitation, Qin Nan yelled as he dived into the abyss.
âImbecile! How dare you!â
The two geniuses and the Dark Tribute Progenitor came to a realization. Their eyes were filled with flames of anger.
They had been tricked!
Qin Nan had purposely exposed himself and had taken the crystal case to lure them away, allowing the masked man to teleport him to the entrance of the Ancient Demon Abyss! Even though they could not peek through Qin Nanâs cultivation, they could sense that he was not powerful!\nTherefore, entering the Ancient Demon Abyss was his only way out!
âPower of the Heavens, hear my request, Nine Firmament Godly Swords!â
The two geniuses uttered a roar as they executed their moves simultaneously, causing a terrifying force to sweep the surroundings. Following this, a huge stormy cloud was gathered, which sparkled with flashes of lightning, as it summoned giant swords that floated in the air.
BANG! BANG! BANG!
As soon as the swords appeared, the surrounding area was filled with a series of explosions.
The presence of the swords alone had shocked the Heavens and Earth!
âHAHAHA, you are still planning to take the treasure? Now that the successor of the Heaven-Shattering Saber has appeared, itâs better for you to give up! Soon, the power of the Heaven-Shattering Martial Monarch will reappear in the world, and all the so-called geniuses on the God Ranking will be destroyedâââ The masked man burst out laughing without showing any sign of fear.
âTen Thousand Evil-Condemning Slash!â
The two geniusesâ faces darkened as they let out furious roars, causing the thunderous swords to drop like a heavy downpour, covering the figures of the masked man and Qin Nan.
âHeaven-ShatteringâŚFlick!â
The masked manâs will increased to its limit as a tremendous black glow was gathered. He raised his hand and flicked his finger toward the sky, firing a surging force that felt like it was going to shatter the sky.
This was the lifebound Monarch Art of the Heaven-Shattering Martial Monarch!
Even though the masked man had only mastered a tenth of its power, it was still utterly terrifying!
BANG!
The force collided with the thunderous swords, resulting in a shocking explosion. The shockwave of the impact caused the surroundings to fall into chaos.\n
