Chapter 476 - Taking Part in the Trial

At that instant, the entire place fell silent.

No one would have expected somebody to appear all of a sudden, especially at this particular moment.

The crowd instinctively glanced toward the figure and were startled after a glimpse.

Qin Nan?

The person that just appeared was Qin Nan?

How was he still alive after falling into the Mengpo River?

“Qin Nan!”

Tang Qingshan’s crew, Princess Miao Miao, Gong Yang, and the others were overjoyed.

He did not die, he was still alive!

“Sorry I’m late.”

Qin Nan said while bringing his fists together. Following this, he glanced at the seven treasures in the sky with a relaxed expression.

“Qin Nan, it doesn’t matter if you’re still alive. The trial is over!”

Death’s Servant was taken by surprise after seeing Qin Nan’s return. After all, it was his first time seeing someone able to escape from the Mengpo River, but he soon collected his thoughts.

Did it matter now?

The trial had come to an end!

“Who said that? I’ve yet to take part in the trial, and the rewards have still yet to be distributed, which means the trial is not finished yet!” Qin Nan let out a hollow laugh. His figure ascended the nine hundred and ninety-nine steps straight away and arrived before the black pillar.

BANG!

The crystal coffin suddenly emitted a mysterious absorption force retrieving the space containing the treasures, which all vanished in just the blink of an eye!

In other words, the Reaper’s Platform agreed with Qin Nan’s words!

Since Qin Nan had yet to take part in the trial, it was not over yet!

“You——”

Veins began to pop out on the foreheads of Death’s Servant, Progenitor Wen Dao, and the rest.

They were this close to acquiring the treasures, and now their plan had been interrupted by this ant!

“HAHAHA, Qin Nan, will that make any difference? Didn’t you see, even your friend who triggered nine rays of light with his first-grade Di ranked Martial Spirit has lost, as I’ve triggered ten rays of light! Do you know how significant that is? Even a third-grade Di ranked Martial Spirit wouldn’t be able to do that!”

Previously, Xiao Zhonghuang had been interrupted at the most crucial moment, causing him to feel unpleasant. He immediately burst out mocking Qin Nan as soon as he got the chance.

The crowd was instantly awakened from the shock after hearing the words.

That’s right!

So what if Qin Nan had returned?

Qin Nan only possessed a tenth-grade Xuan ranked Martial Spirit. Even if his Martial Skill Talent was relatively outstanding, he could at most trigger nine rays of light. There was no way he could beat Xiao Zhonghuang’s result!

“Sigh, does it make any difference?”

“Yeah, Xiao Zhonghuang’s result is unbeatable. Qin Nan won’t stand a chance.”

“Not that I’m looking down on Qin Nan. The outcome has been determined. There’s nothing Qin Nan could do.”

“……”

The crowd of rogue cultivators shook their heads while letting out sighs.

At the beginning, they had been anticipating the duel between Qin Nan and Xiao Zhonghuang, as both of them were peerless geniuses. That was no longer the case, as the result that Xiao Zhonghuang had achieved was beyond Qin Nan’s reach.

In other words, they were not at the same level!

The flicker in the eyes of Tang Qingshan and the others turned dimmer.

It was not that they had no confidence in Qin Nan’s talent, but due to the assistance that Xiao Zhonghuang had gotten from Death’s Servant, he had reached an unimaginable height!

That’s ten rays of light, how could Qin Nan surpass it?

“Humph, a mere ant trying to waste our time, it won’t bring any change to the final outcome!” Progenitor Wen Dao harrumphed while his eyes were filled with utter disdain. He still held a grudge against Qin Nan for going against his will previously. I shall enjoy my time torturing this idiot after I’m done refining Sacred Leader Qinglong.

“Sacred Leader Qinglong, eat this!”

Progenitor Wen Dao let out a roar. He no longer focused his gaze onto the Reaper’s Platform, but rather charged toward Sacred Leader Qinglong at full force.

Sacred Leader Feiyang took let out a harrumph while his aura grew rapidly, aiming at the Imperial Exterminator and his crew.

From the short battle that had taken place a while before, even with Tang Qingshan and his crew cooperating, they were still suppressed by Sacred Leader Feiyang, causing their bodies to be covered in wounds.

Even though Tang Qingshan had mastered the Imperial Mortal Scriptures, which allowed him to be undefeatable among cultivators in the same realm, there existed a great difference between the Martial Highness Realm and the Martial Sacred Realm.

Although Sacred Leader Feiyang was only in the first-layer Martial Sacred Realm, they did not stand a chance against him.

Whoosh!

At that instant, a shocking saber glow suddenly tore the space apart while slashing in Sacred Leader Feiyang’s direction.

Sacred Leader Feiyang was startled by the terrifying saber aura, which sent a shiver down his spine. He immediately dashed aside to dodge it.

The sudden change attracted the attention of the crowd.

They clearly remembered that it was the saber which had brought Qin Nan out from the Ocean of Death. What exactly was that saber?

“Mm?”

Progenitor Wen Dao and Sacred Leader Qinglong glanced at the saber with confused looks.

“This is…”

Tang Qingshan, Peak Leader Duanmu, and the others were stunned, as they could sense a familiar aura from the saber.

The black saber let out a buzz, as if it was trying to express how much it missed them, before it fell into Tang Qingshan’s hands.

Tang Qingshan unconsciously held the saber in his hands. An indescribable sense of familiarity struck his soul, causing his face to be filled with agony, sorrow, and a hint of joy.

“Qingshan, is this…”

The voice of Peak Leader Duanmu and the rest began to tremble.

“It’s her.”

After a slight hesitation, Tang Qingshan uttered two words, causing peak Leader Duanmu and the rest to be stunned in place.

It was her!

It was their Junior Sister!

But why had she become a saber?

“We’ll discuss it after settling the mess here.” Tang Qingshan’s eyes flickered with pain as he clenched the saber tightly before staring at Sacred Leader Feiyang.

BANG!

Tang Qingshan’s aura changed tremendously, as if a peerless Imperial Exterminator had descended to the world.

Sacred Leader Feiyang’s expression stiffened as he could sense a hint of danger from Tang Qingshan’s figure!

BANG! BANG! BANG!

A shocking scene took place. While holding the saber in his hand, Tang Qingshan’s cultivation skyrocketed as he knocked Sacred Leader Feiyang back gradually.

“Useless trash!”

Progenitor Wen Dao let out a curse while he executed stronger attacks encapsulating Sacred Leader Qinglong’s figure.

The entire shore of the Ocean of Death was covered in a series of terrifying battles.

As for Qin Nan who had just arrived, it was as if he had been abandoned by the entire world, as no one had time to focus on him.

“A total of thirteen grades huh…”

Qin Nan raised his head and glanced at the black pillar, before he stepped forward and slowly placed his hand on its surface. His figure shuddered violently.

The Thirty-Three-Dragon-Lined Golden Nascent Soul within his body vibrated vigorously, as if it greatly desired to be unleashed.

“Wait for a little longer!”

Qin Nan had not expected his Thirty-Three-Dragon-Lined Golden Nascent Soul would plan to trigger the Tribulation at this time. He immediately withheld the urge with his thoughts while placing his hand on the pillar.

At that instant, the black pillar emitted a brilliant glow.

The crowd’s attention was attracted by it once again.
