Peerless Battle Spirit Chapter 1134 - Qin Nan’s Path to the Martial Monarch Realm

...Meanwhile, in the third stage of the Monarch Horoscope Contest...

“Haha, I didn’t tell you before, I left three streams of my will in the left arm. The second stream would be triggered when you were about to achieve the Martial Monarch Realm.” Sacred Leader Qinglong let out a pleasant laugh as he cast a gentle gaze toward Qin Nan and said, “What a surprise, you’ve grown so much in just a few years.”

“Master...”

Qin Nan could feel his nose tingling.

It went without saying that Sacred Leader Qinglong had left his will in the left arm for his sake.

“Mm, now is not the best time to reunite. I’m here specifically to tell you one thing, and you’ll decide if you’re going to proceed with your path now.” Sacred Leader Qinglong straightened his face.

“Mm? Why is that?”

Qin Nan was startled.

The force of the Divine G.o.d of Battle sealing the nine Martial Trees and Sacred Leader Qinglong showing himself both implied that the situation was not as simple as he had thought.

“Let me ask you, what exactly is cultivation?” Sacred Leader Qinglong’s gaze sharpened.

“Cultivation? From what I understand, it’s becoming stronger by working hard, etc.” Qin Nan answered.

Sacred Leader Qinglong raised his head slightly as he spoke, “That’s right, cultivating is you working hard to become stronger. Normally, be it achieving the Martial Monarch Realm, the Martial G.o.d Realm, or even breaking the rules of Canglan Continent and ascending to the Nine Heavens, you’re expected to do it with your own cultivation.”

“Are you saying that...”

Qin Nan wore a stunned expression as he realized something.

“That’s right, currently, the path of cultivation in the Canglan Continent has been thoroughly manipulated. The cultivators of the Canglan Continent have all a.s.sumed that they would have to partic.i.p.ate in the Monarch Horoscope Contest and G.o.d Horoscope Contest to claim the Monarch Horoscope and G.o.d Horoscope in order to achieve the Martial Monarch Realm and the Martial G.o.d Realm.”

Sacred Leader Qinglong’s eyes were sharp like a saber as his voice became heavy.

“Without relying on these methods, there’s no way one would be able to achieve the Martial Monarch Realm or the Martial G.o.d Realm.”

The words created a spark in Qin Nan’s heart.

He had never seriously thought about this, but now on second thought, it did seem like the Monarch Horoscope Contest and the G.o.d Horoscope Contest did not fit the path of cultivation.

“Many authorities of the Canglan Continent were aware of this problem too, but none of them managed to achieve the Martial Monarch Realm or Martial G.o.d Realm on their own. The reason being that achieving the Martial Monarch Realm or the Martial G.o.d Realm requires lots of primary monarch force or G.o.d force, but they are being controlled by the Monarch Ranking and the G.o.d Ranking!”

Sacred Leader Qinglong said.

“Master, are you implying that the Monarch Ranking and the G.o.d Ranking have expropriated the rights to achieve the Martial Monarch Realm and the Martial G.o.d Realm from cultivators?”

Qin Nan’s eyes flickered.

“That’s right! In the Nine Heavens, or in other places, everyone can only achieve the Martial Monarch Realm or the Martial G.o.d Realm through their own effort! That being said, I’m not saying that the Monarch Ranking and the G.o.d Ranking are evil. You will have to decide for yourself regarding that!”

Sacred Leader Qinglong hesitated for a moment before he said smilingly, “What I’m telling you is that the Monarch Horoscope and G.o.d Horoscope are just something from the others. For example, it’s like as if you’re just a normal person, and I’m using some way to make you a Martial Dominator, Martial Highness, Martial Sacred, Martial Progenitor, or Martial Monarch. That’s all I have to say. You will make the decision yourself.

“By the way, you will be able to command the force of the Divine G.o.d of Battle once...”

The voice slowly softened as Sacred Leader Qinglong’s figure slowly disappeared after finis.h.i.+ng the sentence.

“Master?” Qin Nan was startled. He yelled, but there was no response.

“Calm down, calm down.”

Qin Nan took a few deep breaths, allowing his thoughts to settle.

Now that the Monarch Horoscopes were right in front of him, he had to make up his mind now.

Sacred Leader Qinglong had chosen to explain the truth to him instead of stopping him from claiming the Monarch Horoscopes. In other words, he was trying to tell him that the path of cultivation of the Canglan Continent had been thoroughly manipulated.

“The Monarch Horoscopes and the G.o.d Horoscopes are given by the Monarch Ranking and the G.o.d Ranking. Even if I were to claim the Monarch Horoscopes and refine the flesh of nine Martial Monarchs which no one had ever achieved before, it also means that I don’t have full control of the power of the Martial Monarch Realm or the Martial G.o.d Realm! I never knew the G.o.d Ranking and Monarch Ranking had actually done such thing...”

Qin Nan’s expression changed slightly.

He was quite fond of the Monarch Ranking, as it had never harmed him, but had helped him on a few occasions in the past instead. It had also helped him with his worries this time, allowing him to claim the nine Monarch Horoscopes...

Helped him with his worries...

Qin Nan was shocked as he suddenly realized something.

When the South-Heaven Spirit Envoy attacked, the spirit of the Monarch Ranking had intervened and prepared a Monarch Horoscope for Tang Qingshan and Jiang Bilan so he could focus on claiming the nine Monarch Horoscopes!

Didn’t that mean the spirit of the Monarch Ranking already knew that he would need nine Monarch Horoscopes?

Otherwise, when Qin Nan had already secured one of the Monarch Horoscopes, why would the spirit of the Monarch Ranking promise him that he would offer Tang Qingshan and Jiang Bilan one Monarch Horoscope each?

Didn’t that mean the spirit of the Monarch Ranking was guiding him toward the path of refining the flesh of nine Martial Monarchs?

Why would it lure him onto this path on purpose?

“Besides, since the Monarch Horoscopes are given by the Monarch Ranking, doesn’t that mean the Monarch Ranking would be able to control me once I’ve refined them?”

Qin Nan’s expression changed tremendously after having this thought.

That seemed like a reasonable thought.

Otherwise, why would the Monarch Ranking and the G.o.d Ranking deprive the rights of cultivators to achieve the Martial Monarch Realm and the Martial G.o.d Realm on their own? Why would they be distributing the Monarch Horoscopes and the G.o.d Horoscopes? Why would they be holding the Monarch Horoscope Contest and the G.o.d Horoscope Contest?

They were like two giant hands looming over the entire Canglan Continent.

“Wait, they shouldn’t be able to fully control them. Otherwise, what’s the point of pursuing the path of cultivation in the Canglan Continent? Besides, the Monarch Ranking and the G.o.d Ranking are already so powerful, why would they need to manipulate the Martial Monarchs and Martial G.o.ds? However...”

Qin Nan’s expression darkened.

He still could not determine if the Monarch Ranking and the G.o.d Ranking could control the Monarch Horoscopes and the G.o.d Horoscopes.

However, he clearly knew that the Monarch Ranking was luring him, and there must be a reason they were doing this. There would also be some side effects if he were to inherit the Monarch Horoscopes.

“I only have one choice then...to achieve the Martial Monarch Realm myself!”

Qin Nan took a deep breath as his eyes flickered.

Only by achieving the Martial Monarch Realm himself would he be able to control the power. Besides, even if the Monarch Ranking and G.o.d Ranking were planning something, they wouldn’t be able to manipulate him through the Monarch Horoscope!

“The problem is that no one has ever achieved the Martial Monarch Realm, including the senior eight thousand years ago who has headed to the Nine Heavens. According to master, the reason is that the primary monarch force and primary G.o.d force are in the hands of the Monarch Ranking and the G.o.d Ranking. Therefore, in order to achieve the Martial Monarch Realm, I need to find a way to obtain the primary monarch force...”

Qin Nan quickly thought, causing him to frown.

The primary monarch force?

How could I possibly obtain the primary monarch force without relying on the Monarch Horoscopes?

“I almost forgot! Master just said that I’d be able to command the force of the Divine G.o.d of Battle once!”

Qin Nan’s eyes flickered.

The force of the Divine G.o.d of Battle was extremely powerful. Could he possibly use it to extract the primary monarch force so he could achieve the Martial Monarch Realm?
