Chapter 1363 – Succession Statue
"Eight…eighty Sky-Severing Dragon Claws?"
Sima Kong swallowed his saliva.
Even Qin Nan's Monarch Heart started beating at a faster rate.
No wonder so many geniuses and authorities were fighting against one another.
Eighty Sky-Severing Dragon Claws was indeed a shocking sum.
"Tsk tsk, that statue is special too. It's a succession statue from ancient times. You'll find an impressive succession after breaking it."
Little Worm smacked his lips.
It had been a while since he had last seen something from ancient times.
"A succession?"
Sima Kong almost drooled when he heard the words.
"Succession Statue?"
Qin Nan was startled.
It was likely that the Succession Statue was one of the thirty-six Disha Hidden Treasures.
"But how are we going to secure them?"
Sima Kong asked as a thought crossed his mind.
Last time, Qin Nan had been able to take the two Martial Monarchs by surprise to buy himself some time. However, with all the geniuses and authorities involved in the fight, it was unlikely that he could simply surprise all of them.
"Succession Statue huh…don't worry, I've got a plan. Send me there."
Qin Nan's eyes flickered as he thought of something.
Even though the plan he had in mind was quite risky with a low chance of success, he still had to give it a go.
"Be careful."
Little Worm said as he executed the 'Ten Forbidden Arts: Secret Art of the Illusionary Dragon'.
He would be in a bad spot if Qin Nan were to die here.
Whoosh!
A while later, as the black flames appeared, Qin Nan's figure vanished into thin air once again.
Meanwhile, in an unfamiliar space, on a spacious dojo…
BANG BANG BANG!
A series of deafening explosions took place.
The attacks executed by three ninth-layer Martial Monarchs clashed in the air. Meanwhile, the rest of the geniuses and authorities were split into three different battles, each executing various attacks and moves.
"Wu Hong, Ling Po, Si Zhaoxue, you three are no match against us. Why don't you team up with us and destroy Blood Rune and his group!"
Wan Fenghun and Jiang Kongzhou said as they moved rapidly while dodging the attacks.
"Team up with you? Even though our rankings are not as high as yours, just the two of you aren't enough to defeat us three. Why don't you join us instead?"
Blood Rune, Qilin Flame, and Vast Skythunder uttered hollow laughs.
"I'm sorry, the successors of the Nine Words Ancient Sea never collude with anyone."
Wu Hong and his team stood firm with their principles.
Based on the circumstances, their group's cultivation was the weakest. However, they had long prepared a great plan that would secure the eighty Sky-Severing Dragon Claws for them.
"What's that?"
At that instant, Wan Fenghun, Jiang Kongzhou, the others, and the three ninth-layer Martial Monarchs in the air turned their heads after becoming aware of something.
"Wan Fenghun, Blood Rune, and everyone else, it's been a while."
A voice suddenly spoke.
A puff of black flames erupted in the air, from which a human figure appeared.
"Qin…Qin Nan?"
Wan Fenghun, Jiang Kongzhou, and the others were astounded.
What just happened?
Why would Qin Nan appear all of a sudden?
"Last time, you all have teamed up to hunt me down. This time, I'll be taking all the Sky-Severing Dragon Claws."
Qin Nan calmly said. He swung the Treasure-Fishing Rod forward and reeled in the eighty Sky-Severing Dragon Claws.
"HAHAHA, Qin Nan, how stupid of you to take the path to Hell when there's a path to Heaven! Do you really think you alone can take all the Sky-Severing Dragon Claws?"
"Everyone, let's kill this son of a bitch!"
Wan Fenghun burst out laughing pleasantly instead of panicking.
In his opinion, Qin Nan was asking for death the moment he showed himself.
"You were lucky enough to escape last time. It won't happen again!"
Blood Rune, Qilin Flame, and Vast Skythunder were overjoyed, but their expressions were immediately replaced with a cold look.
BANG!
At that instant, the geniuses and authorities immediately unleashed their auras, shaking the entire dojo vigorously.
The space nearby was entirely sealed off.
"How hilarious, do you think I dare to take all the Sky-Severing Dragon Claws without a plan?"
Qin Nan shook his head. His eyes became sharp as a magnificent aura in his body burst into the sky like a peerless saber.
"This…"
The crowd shuddered. Their eyes were filled with disbelief.
What just happened?
How did Qin Nan who was merely a peak Martial Progenitor have an aura similar to that of a sixth-layer or even seventh-layer Martial Monarch Realm?
"He's bluffing!"
A moment later, a great roar exploded, which was uttered by Jiang Kongzhou.
In his opinion, Qin Nan was surely a Martial Progenitor. He had used some trick to unleash the aura to either buy him some time or to distract them.
"Does it make any difference even if you somehow possess the power of the seventh-layer Martial Monarch Realm?
"Uncle, do it!"
Wan Fenghun yelled as he collected his thoughts.
The three ninth-layer Martial Monarchs instantly responded by performing hand seals, unleashing three terrifying forbidden arts. Cracks began to appear on the dojo in an astonishing manner.
"What a surprise, to see through my trick so quickly, but…it has only begun!"
Qin Nan's eyes flickered with determination. He sprang forward and slashed toward the statue.
BANG!
Following a loud crash, the statue was shattered into pieces. However, as it was destroyed, a blinding glow appeared on the dojo, which greatly surpassed the presence of the Martial Monarchs.
"Who woke me up!"
A thunderous voice spoke.
A figure surrounded by flickers of red lightning slowly appeared from the glow with an overwhelming presence.
"This…"
Wan Fenghun, Jiang Kongzhou, and the others were stunned.
No one had thought the statue would have such a secret inside it.
"Since I've been awakened, according to the rules, everyone here will be given a trial. The person who passes it will receive my succession."
The figure within the red lightning said as he waved his hand. At that instant, the sky above the dojo was surrounded by lightning.
Everyone was trapped within it.
"Senior, I'm sorry, I won't be taking part in the trial."
Qin Nan who was not far away wore a calm smile.
Time was almost up.
"How bold, drop to your knees!"
The red lightning figure snapped furiously as if someone had touched his inverse scale. He went up to Qin Nan and swung his hand down.
The slap was enough to shatter an eighth-layer Martial Monarch into pieces.
"Qin Nan, you're dead!"
Wan Fenghun, Blood Rune, and the others were overjoyed by the sight.
Although they were still clueless about what was happening, they only knew that there was no way Qin Nan would be able to escape.
"Everyone, until next time."
Qin Nan remained collected. In the nick of time, black flames suddenly engulfed his figure and he disappeared into thin air.
The timing was perfect.
