Peerless Battle Spirit

Chapter 1141 - The Extraordinary Path

…Dragon Emperor Clan, the Human Peak…

After sending Mu Mu away, Qin Nan took out the Shadow Pagoda’s badge and sent a message.

He had yet to understand the current situation of the Middle Continent after the Monarch Horoscope Contest.

“Shi Qingfan has left the Misty Immortal Sect. It’s highly possible that he has headed to the half-God region.

“Sage Chen Zilai was sentenced to stay in the Ten Thousand Demons Path for a year. According to some sources, it appears that Chen Zilai had purposely gone easy on Sorceress Qian Qian during the Monarch Horoscope Contest, but the people of the Fallen Demon Villa have denied it.

“More than a few hundred geniuses have hinted using Qin Nan’s name. It’s possible that Qin Nan was the reason why the Monarch Horoscope Contest turned out this way.

“Among the geniuses ranked in the top one thousand on the Monarch Ranking, seven hundred and ninety-eight have fallen in the Monarch Horoscope Contest.

“The Dragon Emperor Clan, the Heaven-Saber Sect, and the Fallen Demon Villa have set up a meeting to discuss the Monarch Ascending Ceremony. The venue has not been decided yet, but it’s most likely going to be held at the Dragon Emperor Clan.”

“……”

Qin Nan’s lips curled upward as he read the information.

The spirit of the Monarch Ranking had purposely hidden the truth about the events that had taken place during the Monarch Horoscope Contest. As a result, apart from the geniuses in the first and third stages, no one in the Middle Continent knew that he possessed nine Martial Trees. action

This might be good news for him.

Otherwise, his name would shock the entire Canglan Continent.

“That being said, the Monarch Horoscope Contest is indeed cruel. Those who have succeeded will rise up tremendously, while those who have failed will lose everything.”

Qin Nan’s eyes flickered coldly.

He was completely disgusted by the Monarch Ranking and God Ranking’s doing.

Since when should cultivators’ futures be decided through a contest?

“Phew!”

Qin Nan exhaled deeply as his gaze became calm.

It was enough for him to get a general understanding of the current situation. Currently, he had more important matters to attend to.

“Let’s check the manual out first.”

The book was left by the Heaven-Shattering Martial Monarch, the same book that had allowed Qin Nan to discover the door to a whole new world of cultivation. It was half the reason why Qin Nan had managed to surpass the rules of cultivation.

Qin Nan slowly turned the pages over and read each of the sentences with extreme caution.

Even though he had thoroughly memorized every single insane statement written inside the book, every time he read it, his heart would lose its calm and become excited. As he finished reading the book, his gaze was completely different.

“Now, it’s time to think how I will achieve the Martial Monarch Realm on my own.

“Even though I’ve got the primary monarch force equivalent to three Monarch Horoscopes inside my body, it’s nowhere enough for the nine Martial Trees. However, where there’s a will, there’s a way. There must still be some method to achieve the Martial Monarch Realm.”

Qin Nan quickly thought.

Several illusionary figures were summoned inside his Divine Sense as he continued to deduct the possibilities.

His character played an important role in times like this. It was as if he had gone mad, as he continuously came up with brilliant thoughts in his mind, but it was soon rejected by himself. It felt like he would never be fatigued.

Any ordinary cultivator would have lost their patience and given up already.

Time gradually passed. Two days were gone in the blink of an eye.

“That’s not it! Killing other Martial Monarch Realm experts to retrieve their primary monarch force is not viable at all! It would be extremely difficult to extract the primary monarch force, let alone the difficulty of actually killing the Martial Monarchs! Besides, even if I managed to find a way to take their primary monarch force, wouldn’t the other Martial Monarchs find out easily enough?

“Negotiate with the Monarch Ranking? That’s even worse. I have nothing to negotiate with at all. If the spirit of the Monarch Ranking learned that I have primary monarch force inside my body, it would target me straight away.

“Proceeding to the Nine Heavens from the Ancient Demon Path? I might be able to break free from the restrictions of the Canglan Continent once I enter the Nine Heavens, and I could possibly absorb the primary monarch force there. However, what if I wouldn’t be able to return? I won’t take the Ancient Demon Path unless it’s the only choice left.”

Qin Nan’s thoughts surfaced like tides.

Countless crazy ideas popped up in his mind.

If anyone were to read his mind, they would be utterly terrified by them.

“No, no, apart from going to the Nine Heavens, none of them would actually work. In that case, maybe I should derive it backwards. If I’m planning to achieve the Martial Monarch Realm, the only way is to increase the primary monarch force. Does this mean the primary monarch force is the only way?

“I almost forgot, increasing the primary monarch force is only one of the options. I could also modify myself—if I only had three Martial Trees, or even one…”

It was as if a shocking thunder had occurred inside Qin Nan’s mind.

Qin Nan’s figure instantly shuddered as his eyes glistened.

That was right!

Why didn’t I think of this before?

If I’m able to produce nine Martial Trees, why can’t I merge all of them into one?

If the Martial Trees were merged into one, not only would their power be changed completely as a new Martial Tree was born, it would also be stronger than the nine Martial Trees he had now!

Furthermore, once he managed to merge the nine Martial Trees into one, he would be able to let the single Martial Tree absorb the primary monarch force that was equivalent to three Monarch Horoscopes!

In this way, not only would he be able to achieve the Martial Monarch Realm, his monarch force would exceed the others too!

“That’s right! This is doable! Merging the nine Martial Trees into one to refine my power a first time! Then absorb the primary monarch force to refine my power a second time! Finally, after achieving the Martial Monarch Realm, my power would be greater than ordinary Martial Monarchs, thus a third time! As such, my Martial Monarch Realm would not be weaker than refining the nine Monarch Horoscopes, or even stronger…”

Qin Nan’s figure trembled in excitement.

Not only would his thought make him a Martial Monarch, but he could also actually become the greatest Martial Monarch in history!

“Calm down, calm down! I have to deduce it one more time!”

Qin Nan took a few deep breaths as illusionary figures were summoned inside his mind.

After repeating it around twenty times, Qin Nan stopped and burst out laughing while gazing into the sky. The reason being that he had proven the solution to be workable!

However, the thunderous laughter immediately shocked the two hounds, one mouse and the others on the mountain.

The two hounds blurted out, “Has Young Master gone crazy because he failed to inherit the Monarch Horoscopes? Sigh…AH!”

They were about to let out a sigh when they were struck, causing them to cry out in pain.

“Quiet.”

Skeleton Xiao Hong snapped as the flames inside her eyes flickered.

Bursting out laughing into the sky after cultivating in seclusion for two days.

That guy…

What did he discover?
