Chapter 1638 – Going All Out
"Someone is attempting to ascend?"
"Such a rare phenomenon, could it be that a Peerless Genius is trying to ascend?"
The cultivators at the places where the three successions were located raised their heads glancing at the shocking figure at the top of the mountain. Their eyes sparkled with envy.
The Land of Immortal Death was only the first Immortal Ancient place they visited.
Even a normal peak Heaven God would struggle to ascend just by visiting a single Immortal Ancient place, let alone a Peerless Genius.
They could easily tell that the mysterious figure covered in immortal glow had successfully claimed the mysterious Tree of Immortal Transformation.
"Crap!"
The two cultivators in white robes, Gu Zhenyi, Long Chan, and the rest of the cultivators that attacked were startled.
The time it took for the man to ascend into the Human Immortal Realm had totally exceeded their imagination.
"The kid is about to rise!"
The Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor who fled into the distance exclaimed.
The difference between the two realms incredibly huge, and considering the kid's background and the Martial Art Mastery he had displayed, he would surely become a Nine Heavens Supreme eventually.
The whole place fell silent, as if Qin Nan was the only existence.
His flesh, Divine Sense, and the Divine Battle Spirit residing deep within his body reacted, as if they were all going to evolve.
On top of it, numerous crystalline flowers of the Immortal Dao with brilliant glows appeared from the stormy clouds, and soon formed an ocean of flowers.
Whenever someone ascended as an immortal, a rare phenomenon would always occur.
Normal Heaven Gods would only summon immortal rays filling the sky, but Peerless Geniuses were able to summon rare phenomena consisting of real things.
Qin Nan had refined the Tree of Immortal Transformation with the Ancient Principle Runes, thus he had summoned the flowers of the Immortal Dao.
"Dao Crystal!"
Qin Nan groaned.
He was not just a Peerless Genius. He had achieved the Greater Success Stage of the Dao Realm, thus as soon as his cultivation reached the Human Immortal Realm and above, he was considered an Exceptional Genius.
The rare phenomenon of his ascension did not stop there.
However, when he activated the Dao Crystal, the Divine Battle Dao Runes covering his bones suddenly emitted blinding glows.
"Mm?"
Qin Nan was startled. He immediately had a bad feeling about it.
He did not think he could ascend even when he saw the thirteen Trees of Immortal Transformation. However, he decided to give it a go when the Trees of Immortal Transformation merged into the single Tree of Immortal Transformation with the Ancient Principle Runes.
Don't tell him even something that is said to guarantee a cultivator a chance to ascend as an immortal isn't going to work on him?
Whoosh!
To prove his thoughts, each of his bones unleashed a shocking absorbing force drawing the wisps of pure energy away as if they had turned into deep chasms.
The lump of energy gradually reverted back to a god glow.
"What just happened?"
"Why is the rare phenomenon dissipating?"
"The immortal intent bursting out of his body is weakening too!"
The two mysterious cultivators, Long Chan, Gu Zhenyi, and the rest of the cultivators were stunned by the surprising outcome.
They had never seen anything like it, nor had they read anything similar in the ancient records.
"Holy crap, what exactly does the kid have inside his body, that even the Tree of Immortal Transformation with the Ancient Principle Runes isn't enough to guarantee him a chance of ascending as an immortal?"
The Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor was utterly terrified.
He rather hoped that Qin Nan managed to ascend as an immortal.
The others might be unaware, but he clearly knew the significance of it.
"It took all the energy!"
Qin Nan had placed his full attention on the condition inside his body.
After the surprises he went through when achieving the Martial Monarch Realm and Martial God Realm, even though the sudden change of events had taken him by surprise, he managed to stay calm instead of panicking.
He was only curious to see what the Divine Battle Dao Runes were up to after absorbing the force that he had received from the Tree of Immortal Transformation with the Ancient Principle Runes.
BANG!
Each of the bones that had absorbed the energy unleashed a formidable force at his heart.
Qin Nan felt a terrible pain. His vision darkened, as he almost lost his consciousness.
"Ouch…"
Qin Nan gasped while withholding the pain. He immediately took another look.
To his surprise, his heart was now covered in numerous Divine Battle Dao Runes.
In addition to it, more Divine Battle Dao Runes were appearing on his organs too.
However, after the runes on his heart were completed, the Divine Battle Dao Runes on the other organs stopped appearing as if they did not have enough energy.
"Qin Nan, I've learned from a heavenly manual that it's a method of teaching you the Dao, I believe the Divine God of Battle wants you to inherit his Great Dao."
Empress Feiyue's voice echoed in Qin Nan's mind, "You must focus on refining the Dao Runes regardless of how fascinating the successions you are going to find are."
"Once you ascend as an immortal, you'll learn the Dao of the Divine God of Battle."
The golden flames in Qin Nan's eyes flickered wildly upon hearing this.
His speculation turned out to be true. He was able to obtain the Dao of the Divine God of Battle after merging with the Divine Battle Flesh!
"Thanks."
Qin Nan responded. He fixed his eyes on the trunk.
The energy he acquired from the leaves was enough to let the Divine Battle Dao Runes grow to this extent. If he refined the trunk too, he could easily refine all the Divine Battle Dao Runes, with quite a huge amount of energy left too.
"Double Swords Sealing the Sky!"
Countless silver-white sword glows appeared above him and encapsulated him in layers like a cocoon.
Long Chan and Gu Zhenyi immediately followed up. Their intents came surging at Qin Nan with tremendous force.
Han Tianxiao and the other cultivators attacked as soon as they had the chance too.
"I almost forgot about them!"
Qin Nan was no longer doing two things at once. The battle blood in his body turned restless facing the enemy, yet his mind was perfectly calm.
He activated his eye-technique while performing a hand seal. He immediately saw lots of cultivators making their way up the mountain.
It was obvious that many cultivators had changed their minds after knowing that he had failed to ascend as an immortal.
After all, Qin Nan had yet to refine the trunk, which was the most important part of the tree!
"The trunk is different than the leaves. It won't fly at me on their own. I'll have to refine it myself. However, I need to keep an eye on these guys too, and with my current god force, it's only a matter of time until they wear me out…"
Besides, since I've subdued the tree, they won't bother fighting among themselves before defeating me…"
A thought crossed Qin Nan's mind.
He was suddenly forced into a corner without him knowing.
He currently had two options. Either the cultivators wore him out, or he could give up on the trunk and leave.
At the same time, he suddenly recalled something. He immediately focused his gaze on the thirteen caves with immeasurable depths.
