Qin Nan’s right arm turned into the Heaven-Shattering Saber as soon as he finished the sentence.
Using the Unstoppable Step, he moved at an insane speed like a bolt of lightning, dodging the Immortal Arts and weaved through more than twenty cultivators within the blink of an eye.
“Qin Nan, are you thinking of targeting Xiao Yiyu first?”
Xu Lai let out a hollow laugh. He transmitted a thought. Several cultivators immediately executed their movement Immortal Arts.
Although their movement Immortal Arts were not as superior as Qin Nan’s, they had the upper hand due to their numbers. They lined up in front of Qin Nan like a wall, preventing him from moving any further.
Qin Nan let out a calm smile upon seeing this. He slashed at Xu Lai, Zhu Zihuang, and the rest of the Peerless Geniuses.
Xu Lai, Zhu Zihuang, and the Peerless Geniuses set up their defense with different artifacts and talismans.
However, the formidable saber intent they were expecting did not appear. Instead, wisps of saber intents had appeared close to Xiao Yiyu and the cultivators that were communicating with the demon blood behind them.
Fourth form of the Divine God of Battle, Death Upon the Area!
“Crap…”
Xu Lai, Zhu Zihuang, and the Peerless Geniuses were startled.
They did not expect Qin Nan to possess such an eerie saber art, allowing him to target Xiao Yiyu even when they were in between.
In the nick of time, a tremendous demon intent burst out of Xiao Yiyu’s body and transformed into a magnificent bloody figure with an imperious aura.
The figure seemed to retain some of its consciousness. It flung its hands forward, shattering the saber intents into pieces.
“Mm?”
Qin Nan’s eyes glittered.
He had discovered a powerful demonic power inside Xiao Yiyu’s body since their first encounter.
However, he did not expect the demonic power was able to protect its master voluntarily.
“It seems like Death Upon the Area isn’t working, if that’s the case…”
Qin Nan’s aura skyrocketed all of a sudden.
The saber in his hand buzzed vigorously. Qin Nan executed a few slashes, unleashing wisps of saber intents that made the hearts of the cultivators in front of him to skip a beat.
The faces of the cultivators in the third or fourth-layer Earth Immortal Realm turned slightly pale.
Somehow, it felt like they were no longer facing an Exceptional Genius, but an unstoppable ruler. They would die to the saber for sure if they dared to engage him.
“Jiu Jie, the rest of you, regroup at once!”
Xu Lai’s eyes widened. Several thoughts crossed his mind within an instant. He decisively ordered, “Qin Nan’s strength is just too superior. We have to defend Xiao Yiyu with everything we have. We can’t allow Qin Nan to disturb him!”
Although Xiao Yiyu had an outstanding demonic power protecting him, preventing Qin Nan from hurting him, he would still be disturbed if Qin Nan kept using the strange move on Xiao Yiyu.
Xiao Yiyu was fully focused on communicating with the demon blood. If he failed because he was disturbed, it would serve as a great loss to all of them.
“Alright!”
Jiu Jie glared at Yuanji and led the cultivators under his command to surround Qin Nan swiftly. They simultaneously executed Bodhi Arts and Immortal Arts.
Xu Lai and the rest of the cultivators shifted their attention from the Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor to Qin Nan too.
“HAHA, everyone is here for me? Just in time!”
Qin Nan burst out laughing when he noticed the enemy’s movement. He summoned the Heaven-Repairing Cauldron over to protect him while unleashing the full potential of the Battle Dao Immortal Manuscript.
BANG BANG BANG!
A series of explosions took place inside the temple.
Even though Qin Nan was on his own, Xu Lai, Zhu Zihuang, and the others were still under great pressure due to his outstanding strength.
“Oh my, this guy’s cultivation is so impressive.”
Ling Lanlan’s eyes flickered with astonishment.
“If I can break free from the forbidding formation, I can consider asking him to accompany me to that place…” Ling Lanlan thought.
Meanwhile, an unexpected change took place.
The demon blood that had been still on the altar without unleashing any aura suddenly emitted a faint flicker.
A terrifying demonic presence surged within the temple from the insignificant change.
Qin Nan, Yuanji, and the others were immediately under great pressure as if a heavy rock was pressing down on their hearts.
“It’s reacting?”
Ling Lanlan shuddered. She nervously fixed her gaze on the Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor, Xiao Yiyu, and the others.
“Qin Nan, Yuanji, stop watching. Pour all your immortal force into the Heaven-Repairing Cauldron right now. I’ll kill them right now!”
Doom was overjoyed.
He was reluctant to lend a hand unless it was necessary.
However, it seemed like Eight Brilliance and the others had triggered a reaction from the demon blood. If they killed Xiao Yiyu and the others now, it would allow Eight Brilliance to claim the demon blood.
Qin Nan and Yuanji did not hesitate. They backed away and poured their immortal force into the Heaven-Repairing Cauldron.
A pair of bloody eyes sprang open inside the cauldron.
A vicious aura burst out of the cauldron.
“Crap!”
Xu Lai’s expression shifted.
He was well aware of what the Heaven-Repairing Cauldron was.
However, he had no idea there was a terrifying beast hiding inside the Heaven-Repairing Cauldron!
“Fellow cultivators, hurry up and use everything you got. If we can just hold on, Xiao Yiyu and the others will surely…”
Xu Lai quickly transmitted his voice to Zhu Zihuang, Jiu Jie, and the rest of the Peerless Geniuses. They too were wearing grim faces after sensing how terrifying the Heaven-Repairing Cauldron was. They proceeded to execute several forbidden hand seals.
Meanwhile, the spacious Eight-Tinkling Ancient Temple began to emit wisps of Bodhi glows. There were chants reciting some kind of verses too. The murderous and intense atmosphere inside the temple was replaced by a hint of sacredness.
In addition to it, the Nameless Grave Tablet full of scratches, the dim Painting of Life and Destruction, the two ancient statues of the Primordial People, the four menacing-looking statues of the four Primordial Evils began to emit their auras too.
Each aura was completely different; the auras were deathly, illusionary, ancient, and menacing respectively.
Together with the Bodhi intents lingering inside the temple, the auras eventually blended together, resulting in a great chaos.
Even though it was just the auras of the different artifacts instead of their powers, the cultivators still felt their hearts beating rapidly. It felt like they were currently under the feet of a few titans of ancient times.
