Chapter 1355 - The Cave of a Hundred Bodhis
The words felt rather surreal . There was no sign of any progenitor force or monarch force, as if it had simply appeared in Qin Nan's mind .
"Who are you?"
Qin Nan's eyes glittered . He quickly scanned his surroundings .
The man was surely no ordinary person if he had managed to do such a thing .
"HAHA, Qin Nan, it's really you, wait there a few moments, I'll come to you . "
The illusionary voice burst into laughter and said . Following this, the Bodhi gust in the distance suddenly quickened its pace .
"Come to me?"
Qin Nan stood there with his eyes squinted .
Although it was quite likely to be a conspiracy, the voice did sound extremely familiar to him . He must be close to the person .
As such, he had decided to stay to see who the person was .
Meanwhile, two hundred and eighty li away . . .
"Cultivator, it seems like that guy is only a peak Martial Progenitor with nothing strange about him . Why don't we team up and split the profit evenly?"
A Martial Monarch whose figure had merged with the clouds was staring at Qin Nan . He finally made up his mind and transmitted his voice into the distance .
"Sure . "
A while later, another Martial Monarch replied .
Even though it was strange that the young man had collected a large number of the Sky-Severing Dragon Claws despite his cultivation only being at the Martial Progenitor Realm, the thirty-eight Sky-Severing Dragon Claws were too attractive to them .
Despite the potential risks, they were willing to try their luck .
"We'll suppress him from both sides at the same time . Three, two, one, let's go . . . "
The eyes of the Martial Monarch who had merged with the clouds flickered . He transmitted his voice again and quickly unleashed the monarch force in his body .
The Martial Monarch in the distance prepared to make his move too .
However, before they could make their moves, an unexpected change took place .
The Bodhi Gust approaching from the distance suddenly grew incredibly strong . Its howl was like the roars of countless beasts .
A magnificent Bodhi Intent rolled in their direction, which turned into a thirty-zhang tall golden glowing figure in front of Qin Nan .
"This . . . "
The two Martial Monarchs were stunned .
Not only did they sense an aura stronger than theirs from the golden figure, but they also detected a formidable aura of the demonic path inside the figure's body .
Everyone knew that the Bodhis and demons were incompatible with one another, yet this golden figure had completely broken the rules .
Who exactly was this senior?
Was he also targeting the thirty-eight Sky-Severing Dragon Claws?
"As expected of someone who is described as the ‘Rare One’, the aura inside his body has already grown so terrifying in less than a year . Even I feel intimidated facing it . "
The eyes of the golden figure had runes flowing inside his eyes . He looked at Qin Nan and exclaimed after discovering something surprising .
He was utterly sincere with his words .
Previously at the Middle Continent, the person who had impressed him the most was not Shi Qingfan or someone else, but Qin Nan instead . Even after coming to the half-God region, he still strongly felt that Sheng Tianjing and the others were not comparable to Qin Nan either .
"What? Rare One? Intimidated?"
The two Martial Monarchs felt their scalps turning numb and chills running down their spines when they heard the words .
Even the golden figure was so respectful toward the young man . He was definitely not a Martial Progenitor, but a Martial Monarch Realm authority instead .
Just a moment ago, they had been still trying to rob the young man .
That being said, both the golden figure and Qin Nan were unaware that the two Martial Monarchs in the distance were completely terrified .
"Are you . . . the Sage, Chen Zilai?"
Qin Nan could not believe his eyes when he saw the golden figure .
The man before him was ranked third on the Monarch Ranking in the Middle Continent, Chen Zilai .
However, both his tone and appearance were completely different than the previous Chen Zilai, as if he were a different person .
"I bet you find it hard to believe? I assume you know what happened during the Monarch Horoscope Contest . I've gone through a lot after coming to the half-God region and ended up like this .
"Of course, I'm not the Sage Chen Zilai from before, but I'm still the Chen Zilai you know . "
Chen Zilai took out a precious wine and handed it to Qin Nan with a smile .
It was his first time feeling deep joy in his heart during his time here at the Dao Origin Heavenly Mountain .
Qin Nan nodded . He received the wine and took a mouthful .
He was aware of how Chen Zilai had 'lost' to Sorceress Qian Qian during the Monarch Horoscope Contest and had left the Monarch Horoscope Contest .
"But why are you here?"
After a while, Qin Nan switched the topic curiously .
Until a few days ago, the Dao Origin Heavenly Mountain was not accessible .
"I guess fate brought me here . I found a run-down temple and a few Bodhi statues, so I went to fix them . To my surprise, such little detail allowed me to pass the trial of the Hundred Bodhis Martial Monarch, thus I was invited to the Dao Origin Heavenly Mountain as an exception to be the successor of one of the twelve Tianba Hidden Treasures, the Hundred Bodhis Succession . "
Chen Zilai explained .
"Twelve Tianba Hidden Treasures? What's that?"
Qin Nan was startled .
"You don't know? Oh, I forgot, they're choosing the successor for the Dao Origin Heavenly Mountain, so they aren't telling you everything .
"Inside the Dao Origin Heavenly Mountain there are a few hundred danger zones and around a hundred treasure grounds . Apart from the succession of the Dao Origin Heavenly Mountain, there are twelve other successions, which are also known as the twelve Tianba Hidden Treasures .
"Apart from that, there are also thirty-six Disha Hidden Treasures after the twelve Tianba Hidden Treasures . "
Chen Zilai explained slowly .
"I see . "
Qin Nan's eyes glistened .
As soon as Chen Zilai showed up, Qin Nan had already seen a strong Bodhi intent and another overwhelming demonic intent coexisting in his body . Even though Chen Zilai had yet to achieve the Martial Monarch Realm, his strength was comparable to the first-layer Martial Monarch Realm .
If the two intents were merged together, his strength would be a lot more terrifying .
As such, it seemed like that the twelve Tianba Hidden Treasures were fairly outstanding too, which greatly surpassed other successions he had heard of .
"Qin Nan, I'm sorry, I've already taken the Hundred Bodhis Succession here, but I guess these Sky-Severing Dragon Claws will come in handy for you . They are yours . "
Chen Zilai flipped his hand as if a thought suddenly crossed his mind . Thirty-one Sky-Severing Dragon Claws appeared on his palm .
He had searched most places in the Hundred Bodhis Space and had managed to find quite a number of claws .
"I can't take them, the Skyless Dojo is very helpful for you too . You should keep the dragon claws . "
Qin Nan rejected the offer without hesitation .
He had had a good impression of Chen Zilai since they had met in the Middle Continent and he admired his personality too . He was glad they were able to meet one another again, how could he possibly take Chen Zilai's dragon claws?
"Qin Nan, it's fine . I've yet to fully comprehend the Hundred Bodhis Succession . Once I'm done, the Dao Origin Heavenly Mountain will have been closed too . I won't make it to the Skyless Dojo in time . If you don't take them, I'll just destroy them . "
Chen Zilai raised his hand, which began to glow .
"I'll take them then—I owe you one . "
Qin Nan helplessly took the Sky-Severing Dragon Claws away .
At the same time, his heart was filled with warmth .
Thirty-one Sky-Severing Dragon Claws was considered quite a fortune here in the Dao Origin Heavenly Mountain .
"Qin Nan, have you seen the Sorceress in the half-God region?"
Chen Zilai asked after a soft sigh .
It was as if it took him a great effort just to finish the sentence .
"I did, at the Wretched Disaster Forest; she asked about you too . I can tell that she misses you . Why didn't you go and find her?"
Qin Nan was not planning to mention the topic, but since Chen Zilai had mentioned it himself, he would not hide the truth .
"I did think about it, but you know how the Canglan Continent is now . The difference is too great without achieving the Martial Monarch Realm . So I decided to wait, I'll see her after I've achieved it . "
Chen Zilai wore a determined look .
The thought was the only reason supporting him to come so far, taking a completely new path .
"Chen Zilai, why aren't you back here yet? Your Bodhi Demonic Intent will crumble if you're away from your flesh for too long . "
At that instant, an imperious, but weak voice echoed in the place .
"I'll be right back . "
Chen Zilai replied before glancing at Qin Nan .
"Qin Nan, everything has changed now . I'm glad that we're able to see one another here . Even though we weren’t particularly close before, let me know if you need any help, I'll be right there .
"On top of that, I have a favor to ask of you .
"If you see Qian Qian in danger, I hope you can help her . I'd be very grateful . "
Chen Zilai gave Qin Nan a bow before his figure slowly vanished .
To him, as long as she was safe, he would be able to continue on his journey no matter how difficult it was .
"Sure thing . "
Qin Nan nodded heavily while staring at the disappearing Bodhi intent .
He had promised Chen Zilai, not because of the Sky-Severing Dragon Claws or his relationship with Chen Zilai, but because he was moved by his feeling .
He had not understood it before, but he was slowly getting it now .
Perhaps this was love, willing to sacrifice everything for someone's sake, even when the path ahead was an abyss .
"Princess, Jiang Bilan . . . "
Qin Nan's thoughts were filled with Princess Miao Miao's naughty grin and the scene where Jiang Bilan turned into the Death Crystal during the Monarch Horoscope Contest .
"Forget it, time to keep looking for the Sky-Severing Dragon Claws . "
Qin Nan shook his head . He disappeared into the distance with a kick .
Qin Nan was unable to locate any more Sky-Severing Dragon Claws in the place when the time ran out . It was possible that Chen Zilai had retrieved all of them .
As the imperious sound appeared once again, the Hundred Bodhis Space started twisting, teleporting Qin Nan and the rest of the cultivators away .
A hundred breaths later, in the third space . . .
"Such a strong murderous intent, this must be a danger zone . "
Qin Nan immediately sensed the strong murderous intent from the mountains, trees, etc . of the place as soon as he landed . His expression tensed slightly .
The murderous intent was a lot stronger than the fiery space he had gone to .
If his cultivation was not strong enough, his cultivation would have gone haywire .
"Mm? The Sky-Severing Dragon Claws are showing a reaction? Judging from it, it looks like there are quite a few cultivators nearby . . . "
Qin Nan glanced at the Sumeru Ring before scanning his surroundings .
"Crap . "
His expression changed instantly following a glance .
Three figures within three hundred li from him were using a secret technique to conceal their cultivations . They were flying in his direction at a fast pace .
Most importantly, the three figures consisted of two seventh-layer Martial Monarchs and a fourth-layer Martial Monarch .
