Peerless Battle Spirit

Chapter 1263 - Wretched Disaster Forest

At the last moment, the Sun and Moon Sword God quickly detected Martial Monarch Nanjian's intentions and slashed forward with the sheath. It penetrated the South-Heaven Supreme Emperor's body. The overwhelming power immediately burst its body open with brute force!

"Using all things on Earth as swords, Delusive Sword Art!"

The Sun and Moon Sword God performed a seal with one hand and flicked his finger!

The rift ahead became twisted, as a pitch-black tunnel appeared out of nowhere. At the end of the tunnel stood an ancient deity, who slashed downward with a peerless sword!

A tremendous sword intent surged out from it instantly!

The sword intent was completely illusionary. It did not make a single noise!

The reason being that it was not meant to deal physical damage, but rather to crush one's soul!

"Master, save me!"

Martial Monarch Nanjian could feel his scalp turning numb. His hair stood on end as he uttered the scream!

At that instant, the entire place fell deathly silent. Every voice completely vanished!

A brilliant glow burst out from the Sumeru Ring on Martial Monarch Nanjian's hand, which slowly transformed into a glamorous illusionary figure with an incredible presence. Even the sword intents sealing off the space were shattered by the aura!

"Is this…the aura of a Martial God?"

Qin Nan squinted when he saw the brilliance.

It was his first time seeing a Martial God Realm expert from the South-Heaven Sacred Ground.

"My clone's strength was still a step late. Frostless Martial God, it's been a while."

The Sun and Moon Sword God spoke calmly. The sword sheath returned to his hand.

"Senior Sun and Moon?"

The glamorous figure was slightly startled when she saw the Sun and Moon Sword God and Qin Nan who was standing behind him. She quickly snapped after a slight pause!

"You imbecile disciple, how dare you offend Senior Sun and Moon. Go back and repent at once!"

Following the voice, the glamorous figure reached out her hand, summoning ancient runes above Martial Monarch Nanjian's head. The runes quickly wrapped around Martial Monarch Nanjian's body and teleported him away!

"Trying to save him in front of me?"

The Sun and Moon Sword God wore a calm expression. The sword sheath in his hand fired two brilliant sword intents!

BANG!

At the last moment, the glamorous figure used her body to shield against the two sword intents. A shocking collision took place!

The glamorous figure swayed wildly as its glow became dimmer!

"Senior Sun and Moon, I'll take on your slash, but would you mind?"

The glamorous figure said with a gentle voice as she reached out her hand!

Ancient runes began to appear above the Xuan-Wind Martial Monarch and the other Martial Monarch's dead bodies!

She was planning to retrieve the two corpses too!

"You've already saved him and now you're planning to take the two corpses too?"

The Sun and Moon Sword God said calmly. he waved his sleeves and shattered the two corpses into pieces with a sword intent.

"If senior insists, but fate has brought this young cultivator to me today. I have a gift for him, I hope you will allow it."

The glamorous figure locked her gaze onto Qin Nan instead and fired a magical glow with a flick. It traveled across the distance and marked Qin Nan's body with an eerie red flower.

Her intention to retrieve the two corpses was only a misdirection. Her true target had been Qin Nan all along.

"Mm?"

Qin Nan was stunned.

The magical glow was too fast for him to react. There was no way he could dodge it in time.

"Keke, thank you, senior. Until next time."

The glamorous figure giggled as red glows burst out from her body, crushing her into pieces.

As the overwhelming presence disappeared, the place returned to calm.

"Force of Destruction!"

Qin Nan demanded. Streams of the will of destruction burst out from his chest.

However, the red flower was perfectly unharmed.

"Don't waste your effort. The flower won't bring any harm to you, but you can't erase it either."

The Sun and Moon Sword God withdrew his terrifying aura and retained the appearance of an old man.

"Senior, if that's the case, what was the Frostless Martial God trying to achieve?"

Qin Nan was utterly confused.

It was his first time meeting the Frostless Martial God.

Why would a Martial God be interested in him all of a sudden?

"Maybe it's something to do with the Heaven-Shattering Martial Monarch.

"Around a thousand years ago, when the Heaven-Shattering Martial Monarch's name was made known, the Frostless Martial God went to the Middle Continent in person to invite him to join the South-Heaven Sacred Ground three times, but he rejected them all. There were rumors saying that the Frostless Martial God had fallen in love with him, but we may never know the truth."

The Sun and Moon Sword God said after a slight ponder.

"Fallen in love with the Heaven-Shattering Martial Monarch?"

Qin Nan was stunned. He never thought the Frostless Martial God would fall in love with the Heaven-Shattering Martial Monarch.

"Forget it then."

Qin Nan shook his head.

If that were the case, he should leave the red flower aside for now. He would ask the Heaven-Shattering Martial Monarch when he met him.

"Senior, your body…"

Qin Nan was startled when he suddenly realized something.

He could see a force depleting inside the Sun and Moon Sword God's body. His silhouette had also turned blurry.

"This is only a clone to begin with. The power it has isn't enough. The truth was that I had the chance to kill Martial Monarch Nanjian, but once I'd done so, the clone would collapse completely." The Sun and Moon Sword God calmly said to Qin Nan, "I can only help you two more times for the rest of the journey."

"Senior, you have my thanks."

Qin Nan brought his fists together sternly.

If it weren't for the Sun and Moon Sword God, he would be in great trouble by now.

"Forget that part, be more straightforward. Just hand over some contribution points…"

The Sun and Moon Sword God stared into the sky while reaching out his right hand.

"Senior, I've run out of contribution points, but I do have some Heavenly Arcana Immortal Fruits. Here…"

Qin Nan took out the remaining Heavenly Arcana Immortal Fruits he had without hesitation.

"Mm, you're fairly generous," The Sun and Moon Sword God wore a smile without taking them. His expression was replaced with a solemn look as he spoke, "We should leave this place at once and take a different route to the Wretched Disaster Forest. It would be troublesome if the other experts of the South-Heaven Sacred Ground are coming after us."

"Got it."

Qin Nan nodded and flew in a different direction with the Sun and Moon Sword God.

The rest of the journey was fairly peaceful.

Three days later, the two finally arrived at one of the Six Great Forbidden Grounds, the Wretched Disaster Forest.action
