Chapter 1558 – Entering the Battlefield
Following the voice, a hunchback old man wearing a strange, blue robe whose face kept shifting to prevent others from seeing his true appearance slowly approached from the distance.
Every step the old man took would produce a ripple that spread in all directions in the air.
Even though the old man's cultivation was only the peak Heaven God Realm, it was clear that the god force inside his body had evolved, greatly surpassing the strength of ordinary peak Heaven Gods.
The man could be considered to be in the half-Human Immortal Realm.
"Cultivator, isn't it a bit tough for you to take on seven Heaven Gods by yourself? I will lend a hand too, I just need ten Liuhuang Rocks."
A deep voice said. It was a middle-aged man with a mask. He simply resembled a human-figured beast, and his cultivation was also in the peak Heaven God Realm.
"Count me in too, I only need five pieces."
"I only need three."
Sometime later, two other peak Human Gods came from the distance.
As the saying went, all the hustle and bustle in the world was only for gains. With enough benefits, one could even convince a Peerless Ruler to join their side, let alone a Heaven God.
Even though Little Peng Emperor Wan Xiao was a formidable foe, they could easily leave the Shangxingtian Small Immortal Realm or change their identities after they were done here.
A mere Peerless Genius's influence was still not enough to control the entire Shangxingtian Small Immortal Realm!
On top of them, even the inner disciples of the three Supreme Daoism factions were tempted too.
However, it was harder for them to conceal their identities, thus they had no choice but to withhold the urge.
"You…"
Heaven God Lisha totally lost his imperious demeanor.
Judging from the auras of the four cultivators, it was extremely obvious that the seven of them would die for sure if a fight broke out.
"You? Who do you think you are? Leave at once, otherwise, I don't mind tearing your bones apart!"
The sinister old man threatened. His hands changed rapidly into icy, sharp claws stained with fresh blood.
The man was a Demon Cultivator.
The other three Heaven Gods uttered hollow laughs and unleashed their murderous auras too.
"We…we'll be leaving now!"
Heaven God Lisha's group of seven felt their scalp turning numb. They immediately fled for their lives, not daring to stay a second further. They executed Immortal Arts and left the place, not caring if Little Peng Emperor would be angry at them.
Even Little Peng Emperor's name was unable to scare the four, they would not doubt that these cultivators would kill them without hesitation.
"Thanks for your help, but as a safety precaution, may I ask four seniors to swear an oath, I will add eight Liuhuang Rocks to the reward."
Qin Nan did not seem surprised. He took out eight other Liuhuang Rocks.
"Another eight pieces?"
The cultivators nearby were dumbfounded. Even the strange old man, and the three Heaven Gods were stunned by Qin Nan's generosity.
"Hehe, kid, you're pretty generous with the pay. Even I have the urge to kill you and take all of your belongings. Forget it, I don't mind swearing the oath."
The old man chuckled before swearing the oath with the other three cultivators.
It was true that they could try robbing Qin Nan, yet Qin Nan had enough time to destroy the Liuhuang Rocks too. It would be utterly meaningless for both sides.
Their cultivation was not strong enough to kill Qin Nan instantly to prevent him from destroying the Liuhuang Rocks.
"Seniors, here are the Liuhuang Rocks."
Qin Nan gave them away decisively without feeling pity about it.
After all, he still had twenty-nine Liuhuang Rocks in his hand. It was more than enough for him for the time being.
"Seniors, we shall head to the Liuhuang Battleground now."
Qin Nan said immediately. It was unwise to stay here any longer, as there was a chance that Little Peng Emperor Wan Xiao would come here himself, or send Human Immortals here to hunt him down. The remaining Liuhuang Rocks he had was not enough to resolve the situation.
"How capable is this cultivator called Qin Nan?!"
The cultivators quickly collected their thoughts, yet the astonishment in their hearts did not weaken.
They too could not believe that Qin Nan was able to fish more than sixty Liuhuang Rocks within half an hour. He must have used some other method.
However, over the past few thousand years, no one was able to achieve what he did.
"There is no fire without smoke, if we happen to stumble into this Qin Nan in the Liuhuang Battleground, we should take him down straightaway!"
The inner disciples of the three Supreme Daoism factions transmitted their thoughts to their people.
On top of them, several Heaven Gods, Earth Gods, and the disciples of the factions ruled by Peerless Rulers shared the same thought too.
Qin Nan's outstanding performance had stirred up their greed.
Time gradually passed, Half an hour was gone fairly quickly.
Qin Nan and the Blood-Eye Earth God arrived at the entrance of the Liuhuang Battleground under the escort of the four Heaven Gods.
Looking ahead, Qin Nan only saw a huge, yellow-copper entrance over a thousand zhang tall high up in the air.
He could sense shocking desolated auras coming out from the door.
The battlefield did not seem too different from the forbidden places he had visited in the past. Once he stepped into the door, he would be teleported to a different place.
"Seniors, I shall excuse myself."
Qin Nan and the Blood-Eye Earth God both refined a piece of the Liuhuang Rocks and disappeared into the giant entrance.
A few hundred breaths later, Qin Nan's figure appeared in another space.
"Such a terrifying battlefield…"
Qin Nan landed on the ground and glanced ahead. He gasped as he saw the enormous ravines, pits, and remains along the ground.
Even until today, the ravines and everything else were still emitting a shocking immortal aura, as if they were going to launch deadly attacks at him.
It was obvious that the battlefield once had a war between immortals.
It was most likely why the Liuhuang Battleground was once described as a place of Immortal Ancient.
"It seems like the places that are still ranked as places of Immortal Ancient are a lot more dangerous than I've imagined."
Qin Nan murmured.
If the Liuhuang Battleground which had already declined still possessed such remarkable auras, how would the place be if it was still considered a place of Immortal Ancient?
How incredible would the place be?
"It looks like I should level up to the peak Heaven God Realm before I take part in the Immortal Ascension War. Otherwise, I won't even stand a chance."
Qin Nan clenched his fists tightly. He was now determined to level up to the peak Heaven God Realm.
