Qin Nan was slightly startled. He swiftly raised his head and glanced forward.
The entire hall covered an area with a circumference of over four hundred zhang. It was constructed with a mix of some red and blue ancient mineral. The walls had candles that could burn forever as the source of light.
The entire hall was filled with pieces of treasure of different size, shape, and aura. With a rough glance, there were at least a few thousand of them, each protected by a layer of sword intent. Even Martial Monarchs would have trouble breaking the protection.
Qin Nan quickly scanned his surroundings and was left dazzled.
Most of the artifacts here were quite extraordinary.
For example, the broken ancient sword in the corner seemed relatively ordinary, but it possessed a strong intent of the Martial Monarch Realm, which felt like a Sword Monarch in person. Meanwhile, the pike in the other corner emitted a sharp flicker, as if a single blow from it were able to penetrate the Heavens and Earth.
There was also an ancient bell, some chains that felt like it had come from deep within the rift, an ancient fan with a hint of Martial God Realm's intent, a flame stone that contained a seventh-grade Tian ranked Martial Spirit, a corpse that seemed to be the extract of some celestial being, etc. There were too many for Qin Nan to take a closer look at every single one.
"You mere ant dare to break in here!"
"HAHA, they've sent a Martial Progenitor Realm kid here!"
"What a great opportunity, I'm going to eat him! Eat him! Eat him!"
At that instant, several hoarse, piercing, crazy voices echoed through the entire hall!
They were the words of the Weapon Spirits!
Following this, the broken sword, the pike, the ancient bell, the mysterious chains, the ancient fan with the Martial God intent, and the rest of the treasures unleashed their terrifying force. It appeared that they were channeling their power to kill Qin Nan!
On a side note, all of the treasures there had been discovered by the Magical Hair Sword God, the other two Sword Gods, and a few Martial Monarch Realm authorities from some ancient forbidden grounds. They had sealed them off and stored them there without wiping their consciousness!
Therefore, when a mere Martial Progenitor Realm cultivator showed up, these savage, vengeful Weapon Spirits immediately went berserk!
A strong sense of danger arose within Qin Nan's heart, causing him to gather his thoughts!
Any ordinary peak Martial Progenitor Realm cultivator would stand no chance against the Weapon Spirits, but unfortunately for them, Qin Nan was no ordinary cultivator!
"Trying to kill me? I’d like to see how you're going to do that…"
A strong battle intent burst out from Qin Nan's body as his right arm exploded into the Heaven-Shattering Saber!
"I dare you to move!"
Following the words, a magnificent saber intent burst out from the tip of the Heaven-Shattering Saber!
"Is that…"
"Such a terrifying saber!"
"Gasp, what saber is that?"
The pieces of treasure that were channeling their power immediately screamed in fear as if a bucket of cold water had just been poured onto them!
The reason being that the aura from the saber and its oppression was far too terrifying!
Even the Weapon Spirits that had existed for a few thousand years had never seen anything like it before!
Clank!
Qin Nan flipped his left hand and thrust the Heaven-Shattering Saber into the ground. The entire hall fell into a dead silence. None of the Weapon Spirits dared to make a noise. On top of that, they were trembling slightly in terror!
It was like an ancient dominator had arrived, prompting the servants to bow down to him!
Qin Nan was not surprised seeing this. After all, it was the Heaven-Shattering Saber, forged by the Heaven-Shattering Martial Monarch with the right arm of the Divine God of Battle. It was more than enough to suppress all the pieces of treasure here!
Qin Nan slowly withdrew his battle intent. He began searching around with his left eye. A moment later, his eyes were fixed onto a corner.
On an ancient container in the corner was a pitch-black piece of wood the size of a palm. It was completely lifeless, without a single hint of any presence.
The wood was none other than the piece of the Canglan Tree.
Furthermore, it was around five times bigger than the piece he had acquired from Zhan Xiaoxian's dagger.
"If I were to refine it, I wonder if it'd be enough for my nine Martial Trees to merge into one?"
Qin Nan's eyes burned passionately as his heart began to race.
A while later, Qin Nan took a deep breath to calm his thoughts.
Since he had found the piece of the Canglan Tree, he had no reason to stay any further. After all, the pieces of treasure here were sealed off by the sword intent, thus he could not take any of them. Besides, he was not interested in stealing the possessions of the Anti-Heaven Alliance.
"I should talk to Wei Ming."
Qin Nan pulled the Heaven-Shattering Saber up from the ground and left the fifth floor.
However, he was unaware that as soon as he left, the trembling treasures finally recovered from the shock.
The Weapon Spirits let out relieved sighs as they felt like they had just survived a great calamity.
"What saber was that?"
"It's way too terrifying!"
"A God Weapon? No, even a God Weapon isn't that terrifying!"
While the Weapon Spirits were discussing among themselves, the piece of the Canglan Tree emitted a blue flicker.
A few moments later, outside the fifth floor of the Mystic Treasure Palace, Wei Ming raised his brows as he sensed something approaching.
"As expected of someone who has surpassed the rules of cultivation, to be able to stay alive after being surrounded by the pieces of artifacts. However, he is most likely close to being a half-cripple now…"
Having this thought, Wei Ming raised his head. Following a glance, his whole body stiffened as his eyes were filled with astonishment.
What happened?
How is Qin Nan perfectly unharmed?
Not a single trace of blood, even his clothes were still intact?
"Hall Leader Wei Ming, how many contribution points do I need to redeem the piece of the Canglan Tree?" Qin Nan asked.
"Uhh, I think two million? No, that's not right. I believe it's three million contribution points." Wei Ming who was still immersed in a great shock spoke in a panic.
"Three million contribution points?"
Qin Nan immediately frowned as he felt a sudden headache.
He only had four hundred and seventy-five thousand contribution points at the moment, which meant that he still needed two million five hundred and twenty-five thousand more to reach his target.
According to the way of earning contribution points in the Anti-Heaven Alliance, he would need to kill at least two Martial Monarchs, fifty-two important people and five ordinary disciples or elders of the South-Heaven Sacred Ground to have that many contribution points.
"No way, I have to get my hands on that piece of the Canglan Tree. I should head to the Star Aligning Palace to see what quests are available. I need to come up with a plan to earn the contribution points…"
Qin Nan made up his mind and left. He even forgot that Wei Ming had been trying to set him up.
"This kid is too terrifying. No matter what the circumstances are, I should avoid standing in his way."
Wei Ming murmured while staring at Qin Nan's back, before shivering as his body was soaked in cold sweat.
