Cao Ling suddenly moved. He rushed toward the Heaven-Reaching Dao Flower and tried to grab it with his hand.
“Cultivator Cao, why are you being so impatient?” Han Qiuying giggled. She waved her hand and summoned countless runes to trap Cao Ling within them.
“Both of you already have great talents. You won’t need to rely on external assistance to achieve the Master Realm. I shall gladly take the flower.”
Zheng Wuyuan appeared beside the Heaven-Reaching Dao Flower following a flicker. He had a faint grin on his face.
“Zheng Wuyuan, that’s not going to happen!” Cao Ling groaned. Illusionary tombs emerged behind him with tremendous auras.
“Do it!” Xiang Han activated his Shidao Flesh and unleashed a shocking murderous intent.
“Hehe, are you all seriously fighting over a flower?” Meng Langtian laughed and joined the battle without any hesitation.
In addition to them, the peak Nine Heavens Supremes and Nine Heavens Supremes in the Greater Success Stage executed their moves too.
A series of explosions took place.
Strong gusts of wind swept in all directions, shaking the palace vigorously.
Any ordinary palace would have collapsed from the impact.
Qin Nan used his Dao intent to defend himself from the strong gusts of wind. He could not help but shake his head.
A moment ago, Zheng Wuyuan, Han Qiuying, Cao Ling, and their respective factions were on the same side. They had basically formed an alliance.
However, they immediately became enemies and attacked one another without mercy.
Qin Nan even noticed that even though the peak Nine Heavens Supremes and Nine Heavens Supremes in the Greater Success Stage were following their Saints, Saintesses, and Patriarchs, they would occasionally glance at the Heaven-Reaching Dao Flower passionately.
If they had the chance, most of them would choose to betray their factions.
The Martial World had always been so cold and cruel. Any alliance or relationship would crumble before some kind of insane benefits.
Qin Nan did not doubt that Xiang Han, Zheng Wuyuan, Han Qiuying, and Cao Ling would also fall out with him if he had the Heaven-Reaching Dao Flower.
After all, they only needed him to increase the rate of success of their plan. In their eyes, Qin Nan was not so important since he was not the reincarnation of a Supreme Highness.
“Cultivator, I’ve long admired your extraordinary path of cultivation. I finally have a chance to fight you today,” Zheng Wuyuan suddenly said and grabbed at Qin Nan.
A great force poured down like a tide.
It was obvious that he was forcibly dragging Qin Nan into the mess so he would not be able to claim all the benefits in the end.
“Humph!”
Princess Miao Miao was displeased. She immediately activated the Soulless Flesh. Several illusionary swords rose behind her.
“Great, let’s fight then,” Qin Nan chuckled.
As a matter of fact, he was not that interested in the Heaven-Reaching Dao Flower under the circumstances.
It was not useful for Princess Miao Miao or Jiang Bilan.
Besides, he was not the kind to fall out with others for mere benefits.
However, he was not to be blamed if the others turned against him first!
“Qin Nan, why don’t we join hands?”
Master Chihao immediately turned restless after seeing the situation, “Later, you will beat the Saint of the Zheng Clan up so I can devour him. We will then claim the Heaven-Reaching Dao Flower and refine it together.”
“If you agree, I will swear an Immortal Demon Oath right now,” Master Chihao said sincerely. He did not have any ulterior motives.
In some way, he was the only person without an intention to hurt Qin Nan among the people here, except for Qin Nan’s women.
Why would he be asking for trouble? Qin Nan was the successor of the Fifth Immortal. He also had the will of two Supreme Highnesses in him whom he could not afford to offend.
However, an unexpected change took place before Qin Nan could speak.
The will of Zhou Di and Huangfu Jue in his body, and the blood orb which the lineages of different Supreme Daoism factions had turned into suddenly glowed as a strange feeling arose in Qin Nan’s heart.
Qin Nan was startled. He carefully observed the surroundings and eventually fixed his eyes on the broken writing brush.
“Xiao Nanzi, there’s something strange about that brush. The Seed of Eternity in both me and Xiao Lanlan’s body just reacted to it,” Princess Miao Miao transmitted her voice.
“Oh?”
Qin Nan’s eyes glittered.
“Master Chihao, let’s wait for now. I’m afraid there’s more than just one Heaven-Reaching Dao Flower here.”
Master Chihao was startled. Was there a second one?
Qin Nan suddenly vanished into thin air as he weaved through the Dao Arts and arrived on the other side of the table.
“Dao Pattern!”
Qin Nan began to make his move. An ancient pattern rose into the air.
“That’s not going to happen!”
Xiang Han and Zheng Wuyuan yelled and executed their Dao Arts.
However, Qin Nan’s Dao Pattern suddenly changed its path in the nick of time. It took the broken writing brush as Qin Nan executed the Sky-Stride Blow to relocate himself to the other side.
“Mm?”
The Saints and Saintesses were puzzled. They soon noticed golden strings wrapping around the Heaven-Reaching Dao Flower. Their eyes widened.
Meng Langtian had finished his preparations while they were distracted.
Qin Nan regrouped with his women. The three of them exchanged glances with one another and took a quick glance at the others before they poured their Supreme Force into the brush.
The brush turned golden as if a seal had just been lifted. A strong aura burst out of it and surpassed the aura of every cultivator.
“Is that…”
The crowd was startled.
“Quick, take that brush from them!”
Zheng Wuyuan, Han Qiuying, Cao Ling, and Xiang Han swiftly reacted. They gave the order to their men in less than a second.
The peak Nine Heavens Supremes of their factions placed their attention on Qin Nan.
“Slash!”
Qin Nan was long prepared for it. His blue-red hair drifted in the absence of wind. He merged the will of the twelve Arts of Dao Seeking with the Heaven-Shattering Saber and unleashed a brilliant glow.
“Formation of Eternity!”
Princess Miao Miao and Jiang Bilan performed a hand seal. Runes of the formation spread rapidly across the ground.
