Chapter 1124 - The South-Heaven Spirit Envoy

The geniuses in the third stage of the Monarch Horoscope Contest were unaware of the incident outside.

Currently on the dojo, Shi Qingfan executed a mysterious Monarch Art targeting the geniuses around him, which allowed him to ascend to the altar. On the other hand, Sage Chen Zilai also managed to ascend to the altar after suppressing the crowd with his Bodhi tree. They had both triggered the Tribulation of Wind and Fire, ready to be tested by the Monarch Horoscope.

This caused the hearts of the geniuses to shudder, who clenched their teeth and tried harder in the battles.

The battles thoroughly escalated to the next level. Every few hundred breaths, a genius would be killed, causing blood to splatter on the dojo.

Time gradually passed. A few moments later, Sorceress Qian Qian, Ao Cangtian, and the Heaven-Yin Daoist had managed to ascend to the altars and trigger the Tribulations, preparing to comprehend the Monarch Horoscopes.

Apart from the Monarch Horoscope that Qin Nan had acquired, there were only four of them left.

Not only did it cause the remaining geniuses to fight even fiercer, Tang Qingshan and Jiang Bilan’s gaze became duller too.

Only fifteen minutes out of thirty had passed.

Would there still be any Monarch Horoscopes for them to compete for after another fifteen minutes?

Those who had ascended to the altars were incredibly talented, thus they would have a great chance of inheriting the Monarch Horoscopes, unless some unexpected accidents took place!

The chance was getting slimmer.

At that instant, Qin Nan finally regained his consciousness, as his eyes slowly opened.

“What happened to me...”

Qin Nan quickly scanned his surroundings. The sound of the geniuses killing one another immediately caused him to gather his thoughts.

He recalled that the Monarch Horoscope had withdrawn from his body, leaving him severely injured thus causing him to lose his consciousness.

It was very unwise to pass out in such a dangerous situation.

“Qin Nan, are you awake?”

Sima Kong turned around with a joyful look.

Tang Qingshan and Jiang Bilan let out relieved sighs in their heart seeing this, as the pressure was lifted slightly.

“Mm? Senior Brother? Jiang Bilan? Sima Kong? You guys...”

Qin Nan saw the people standing around him and immediately glanced at the situation nearby. He instantly came to a realization, causing his soul to tremble.

They had given up on the Monarch Horoscope Contest to protect him!

“You guys should hurry up and compete for the Monarch Horoscopes! I’m fine now!”

Qin Nan blurted out as he felt extremely touched.

He was not willing to hold up their future just because of himself.

“Monarch Horoscope my ass, those guys are maniacs. I would be beaten up to death if I dare to compete with them.” Sima Kong said in a carefree manner while Xuan Yue and Mu Mu shrugged.

“Only three-tenths of your cultivation has recovered. Now that those people have totally lost their minds, we’ll leave when you at least recovered six-tenths of your cultivation.” Jiang Bilan said calmly.

She was not exaggerating.

Once she and Tang Qingshan left, within a single breath’s time, Qin Nan would at least be attacked by a few dozen cultivators instantly.

Even if Qin Nan had surpassed the rules of cultivation, there was no way he could handle the attacks of that many cultivators.

“But...”

Qin Nan was about to say something.

“Don’t speak any further. If you want us to go, then hurry up and recover.”

Tang Qingshan said coldly.

Qin Nan was slightly startled and felt his nose tingling. He took a deep breath and directed his Divine Sense into the pendant to absorb the life force faster in order to quicken his recovery rate.

There was no need to say anything further, as he would remember their kindness in his heart.

“Mm?” Jiang Bilan straightened her face as she transmitted her voice to Tang Qingshan, “Something isn’t right. There’s an extra person on the dojo!”

“What?”

Even Tang Qingshan was shocked.

They were currently in the third stage of the Monarch Horoscope Contest. Even a Martial Monarch or a Martial God would not be able to infiltrate the place. Besides, the Monarch Ranking would not simply let someone enter, as the Monarch Horoscope Contest was conducted strictly according to the rules.

“There were one hundred and fifty-three cultivators at the start, with sixty-three deaths until now. There should be ninety cultivators left, but they are currently ninety-one people here. The person’s cultivation is lower than the Martial Monarch Realm, but somehow he can manipulate his aura with ease. I can’t determine his actual location.” Jiang Bilan said.

Tang Qingshan quickly scanned the place. Just as Jiang Bilan had mentioned, there were ninety-one people on the dojo.

“The person is either here for the Monarch Horoscope or someone among the participants. It’s highly possible that he’s here for Qin Nan, as he possesses the Heaven-Shattering Saber and the secrets to surpassing the rules of cultivation. Since he’s able to infiltrate the third stage of the Monarch Horoscope Contest, it implies how powerful he should be. We should be on alert while Qin Nan is recovering his cultivation...”

Jiang Bilan quickly analyzed the situation through the limited information.

“You’re right.”

Tang Qingshan’s eyes flickered coldly as the Godly Exterminator Scripture in his body was activated so he could prepare his force.

The two did not disturb Qin Nan, nor did they tell anyone. They continued to watch the dojo with expressionless faces.

It felt like time was passing at a much slower pace.

None of the geniuses in the battles were aware of anything out of place. Meanwhile, Shi Qingfan, Sage Chen Zilai, and Sorceress Qian Qian who were sitting on the altars began to frown.

It seemed like the three geniuses had encountered some problems in their trials.

As for the remaining Monarch Horoscopes, Dao Qianzhong finally claimed an altar after an intense battle. He burst out laughing facing Tang Qingshan before sitting down on the ground as he triggered the Tribulation.

Only three Monarch Horoscopes were left.

Hiss hiss hiss...

On the other hand, Qin Nan’s flesh, meridians, and bones began to recover at a shocking pace under the nourishment of the life force. Half of his cultivation had recovered, thus he was close to recovering sixth tenths of his cultivation.

However, at that instant...

Qin Nan felt his heart clenching.

The left eye, left arm, and right arm of the Divine God of Battle began to flicker as if they were aware of something.

Qin Nan frowned as he heard an ancient voice echoing in his mind, “So you’re Qin Nan?”

“Who’s there?”

Qin Nan was taken by surprise as he quickly realized something was out of place.

Every participant would know his name by now. Why would someone suddenly be asking if he was Qin Nan?

“I’m the Spirit Envoy of the South-Heaven Gate. You have been marked as the three-starred enemy of the South-Heaven Gate. If you’re willing to cooperate with me, the conflict between you and the South-Heaven Gate will be written off in one stroke, and the South-Heaven Gate will also give you something it contains, which would help you to achieve the Martial Monarch Realm, or even the Martial God Realm.”

The voice of the South-Heaven Spirit Envoy was filled with enticement.

Qin Nan’s expression changed instantly.

Written off in one stroke?

Giving him something that the South-Heaven Gate contained?

Did the South-Heaven Gate know about the flesh of the Divine God of Battle??

Did it know that he was planning to shatter the South-Heaven Gate?

A few questions crossed his mind, but Qin Nan quickly recalled the reaction of the left eye, left arm, and right arm of the Divine God of Battle.

Something wasn’t right!

The Divine God of Battle would surely notify him if the South-Heaven Gate were aware of the location of his flesh!

However, there must be a reason why the Divine God of Battle was asking him to shatter the South-Heaven Gate. It didn’t make sense that the South-Heaven Gate was willing to give him the treasure it contained.

Even though he could not find the answers to all of his questions, he was sure that the South-Heaven Spirit Envoy was not friendly!

“Hehe, do you think you can trick me so easily?”

Qin Nan let out a hollow laugh as he quickly scanned the surroundings with his left eye of the Divine God of Battle.

“Since you’re such an idiot, I shall devour you instead!”

The voice of the South-Heaven Spirit Envoy became cold as the aura of one of the ordinary-looking geniuses changed tremendously as he turned into a black shadow that charged toward Qin Nan.
