Chapter 1362 – The Princess' Encounter
Buzz!
The strange blue flowers at the top of the towering trees suddenly emitted a blinding blue glow as if they had detected some extraordinary presence, which produced an ancient illusionary figure that floated in the air to guard the place.
The ancient illusionary figure had a strong presence. Even an eighth-layer Martial Monarch needed to spend a great effort to destroy it.
However, regardless of how outstanding the figure was, it was unable to stop the Treasure-Fishing Rod.
The mysterious force from the Treasure-Fishing Rod penetrated the ancient illusionary figure immediately and went past it, seizing the Sky-Severing Dragon Claws and placing them in Qin Nan's hands.
The entire process only took two breaths' time.
"Such a remarkable artifact!"
Martial Monarch Luoyin and Martial Monarch Qinghong were greatly astonished by the sight.
Even though they had seen countless outstanding artifacts, it was their first time seeing an artifact with such an obscure power.
"Qin Nan, die!"
Martial Monarch Luoyin and Martial Monarch Qinghong quickly reacted and wore icy expressions. Terrifying auras rose into the sky, causing the rift nearby to shake vigorously.
How fearless was this Qin Nan, to dare to take the Sky-Severing Dragon Claws right before them?
The former in particular was extremely furious, as it was Qin Nan's second time setting him up.
"Do you two seriously think that I'd come unprepared if I dare to show up on my own?"
At the last moment, Qin Nan wore a calm smile instead of panicking.
"Mm?"
Martial Monarch Luoyin and Martial Monarch Qinghong were startled.
That was right!
If Qin Nan was not confident, why would he dare rob them when his cultivation wasn't stronger than theirs?
"I don't care what you're up to, die now!"
As expected of eighth-layer Martial Monarchs, both Martial Monarch Luoyin and Martial Monarch Qinghong did not hesitate any further to execute hand seals and unleash their terrifying Monarch Arts.
It did not matter what Qin Nan had up his sleeves, they would not simply watch him escape with the Sky-Severing Dragon Claws.
However, before their Monarch Arts were unleashed, an unexpected change took place.
Pitch-black flames began to engulf Qin Nan's figure, as a tremendous force spread into the surroundings.
"Seniors, you have my thanks."
Qin Nan brought his fists together with a smile. Following a whooshing noise, his figure vanished into thin air.
"This…"
Martial Monarch Luoyin and Martial Monarch Qinghong, who were the authorities of the Dead Spirit Tribe and Blood Tribe, each with a cultivation of the eighth-layer Martial Monarch Realm, were completely stunned staring at the empty lake with blank faces.
Dis..
Disappeared?
How did he simply vanish, without a trace?
Two breaths later, at a cave in the Talisman Space…
The air erupted into black flames, from which Qin Nan's figure slowly appeared.
"Phew, I now have ninety-two Sky-Severing Dragon Claws in total. It's far from enough, let's continue on with the search."
Qin Nan took a deep breath. His forehead was covered in sweat.
Facing the two eighth-layer Martial Monarchs was not as simple as it seemed. Even though it had only lasted for five breaths, the pressure he experienced was unbelievable.
After all, the two eighth-layer Martial Monarchs only needed a single breath to eliminate him.
"Mm."
Little Worm nodded and activated the Sky-Peeking Dragon Mirror again.
However, the place where the third image displayed only had five Sky-Severing Dragon Claws.
Qin Nan decided not to go after a slight hesitation.
Little Worm was still fairly weak for the time being. Using such extraordinary capabilities would still impact him negatively somehow. There was no need to continue if the place did not have more than ten Sky-Severing Dragon Claws.
"Let's search around in this Talisman Space."
Qin Nan said and exited the valley.
He had already used the three chances, yet there was still some time left. He did not want to waste it.
The two humans and one dragon began to search around.
Perhaps it was because the two laughing stocks Sima Kong and Little Worm had joined the party, but the process no longer felt serious, instead, it was fairly relaxing and pleasant.
Time gradually passed. After the space had changed for the fifth time, Qin Nan and his crew had collected a hundred Sky-Severing Dragon Claws.
"The master of the Dao Origin Heavenly Mountain lacks some common sense. Why can't he simply put lots of the Sky-Severing Dragon Claws together instead of scattering them across the different spaces? I'll surely teach him a lesson when I see him…"
Little Worm's lips twitched when he saw only two Sky-Severing Dragon Claws on the Sky-Peeking Dragon Mirror. He inserted a wisp of Dragon Qi into the mirror again, changing the image instantly.
This time, the mirror showed a valley.
The entire valley was covered with a strong presence of Qi, filled with countless rare plants and herbs. He could feel a strong life force from the image alone.
In the valley, a woman in a golden-silk robe with bare feet was walking forward with an extraordinary aura.
"Mm?"
Qin Nan and Sima Kong were stunned when they saw the woman.
"Oh my, this girl has some incredible presence inside her. Even my Sky-Peeking Dragon Mirror is too afraid to stay close to her. It would simply attract her attention.
"Tsk tsk, look at her feet and her body, how gorgeous, she's a lot more attractive than the previous one.
"Such a pity, she's from the Lost Herb Garden…"
Little Worm said, feeling it to be a pity.
Wouldn't it be great if the woman was of the dragon species instead?
In fact, it would be better if she were an ordinary human or any of the other ancient tribes.
"The valley here is comparable to the Land of White Bones. It seems like the Princess has found herself one of the twelve Tianba Hidden Treasures."
Qin Nan's eyes flickered, as a smile surfaced on his face.
"What is it? You're into her? Hehe, the girl's identity is quite remarkable. You simply have no chance of winning her heart.
"Of course, if you were to treat me well, I'll help you out and let her marry you."
Little Worm wore a cunning grin when he saw Qin Nan's reaction.
"Let the Princess marry me?"
Something in Qin Nan's heart was plucked softly.
"Let's check the next place."
Qin Nan soon withdrew his thoughts and said without thinking about it further.
"Hehe, I'll let you decide for yourself. Feel free to tell me when you've made up your mind."
Little Worm proceeded to activate the Sky-Peeking Dragon Mirror again.
"Mm? Is that…"
When the new image came up, in addition to Qin Nan and Sima Kong, even Little Worm's attention was attracted.
The mirror was showing a giant dojo, where Wan Fenghun, Jiang Kongzhou, Blood Rune, Vast Skythunder, Qilin Flame, Wu Hong, Ling Po, Si Zhaoxue, three ninth-layer Martial Monarchs, and several other Martial Monarchs of the ancient tribes were fighting one another in a complete mess.
A statue stood directly in the middle of the dojo, whose palms were holding Sky-Severing Dragon Claws.
