Peerless Battle Spirit

Chapter 1674 – The Ultimate Life Dao

A few moments later, the disciples and the two elders submitted to Qin Nan. The man successfully became the Patriarch of the Falling Dawn Sect.

Qin Nan did not hold a ceremony. He assigned some of the inner disciples as elders and asked everyone to swear an oath.

The oath was quite simple. No one was allowed to betray the Falling Dawn Sect as long as he was still the Patriarch, and they had to give their all in the Battle of the Hundred Sects.

Even though some might feel displeased by the oath, it was easily the best option he had for the time being.

“There’s no need to say any further. Tell me, how strong is the Falling Dawn Sect?” Qin Nan glanced at the two elders.

He had spared their lives just so he could know more about the Falling Dawn Sect.

“Patriarch, currently in our sect, there are fifty-three Heaven God Weapons, ten Immortal Weapons, and…”

The two elders immediately reported.

“In the following nine days, hold a tournament among the disciples, and give everything to the winner.”

Qin Nan added, “I will let you two handle everything else. I’m going to meet the Mountain Spirit.”

He disappeared after finishing his sentence.

The elders were dumbfounded.

They initially thought Qin Nan would claim the powerful artifacts as his possessions after he became the Patriarch, yet he did not take a single thing.

Time gradually passed, a few moments later, inside the Falling Dawn Immortal Mountain…

Qin Nan slowly appeared. Ahead of him was a path surrounded by scorching lava, and its end were wisps of immortal glow, with strong immortal intents.

Qin Nan proceeded forward. His eyes flickered not long after.

He discovered a formidable, pure immortal force from the swamp of lava that covered an area of over eighty zhang. Lava dragons would occasionally spring out of the swamp and dance in the air.

The swamp turned out to be a rare artifact. It was comparable to the Dragon Heart of the Earth Immortal Dragon Corpse.

“Congratulations on becoming the Patriarch, this swamp is a gift for you,” the Mountain Spirit said.

It knew Qin Nan had his eyes on the swamp, thus even though it was unwilling, it still took the initiative to give it away.

“Thanks.”

Qin Nan brought his fists together before he said with a stern look, “Mountain Spirit, I have come to ask for your help in the Battle of the Hundred Sects.”

The Mountain Spirit uttered a hollow laugh and said, “Patriarch Qin, it’s not like I’m unwilling to lend a hand, but the World of Yang has forbidden heirloom artifacts like us to intervene with the battle.”

Qin Nan was surprised. He said, “I guess that’s fine.”

If the heirloom artifacts were not allowed to take part in the battle, he had no excuse to ask the Mountain Spirit for help.

“But then, Mountain Spirit, can you increase the presence of Qi of the sect?”

Qin Nan quickly asked.

“Patriarch Qin, I’m sorry, I can’t help you with that. Otherwise, the Falling Dawn Sect will suffer great loss.”

The Mountain Spirit’s voice turned cold.

It was indeed afraid of Qin Nan, thus it had given away the swamp that had taken it a hundred years to refine. However, it was unwilling to waste its primary force.

“Your efforts won’t be in vain. If you’re willing to help, apart from the Heaven-Repairing Cauldron, I will give you two-tenths of the loot.” Qin Nan said with a calm smile.

“Two-tenths of the loot? For real?”

The Mountain Spirit was intrigued. After seeing Qin Nan nodding his head, it fell silent for a moment before it said, “I’m looking forward to you fulfilling your promise.”

Qin Nan brought his fists together and entered the swamp of lava.

A formidable energy immediately cleansed his flesh.

Even though he was only a step away from achieving the Human Immortal Realm, he still had rooms of improvement too.

He could comprehend the immortal intent in the swamp and master it.

Meanwhile, the Ownerless Heaven Pattern deep inside his Divine Sense shuddered as a crystalline stone with the size of a palm slowly floated out of it.

“Mm? Could this be…”

Qin Nan inserted his Divine Sense into the stone.

As he thought, the stone contained the Dao Seeking Art of the Extreme Living Gate, the general outline of the True Scriptures of the Ultimate Life Dao!

“Awesome!”

Qin Nan’s lips curled upward. He immediately proceeded to comprehend the general outline of the Dao Seeking Art.

Even though his body was covered in the Divine Battle Dao Runes, meaning that he was not allowed to learn the other Dao Seeking Arts apart from the Dao of the Divine God of Battle, he could still learn a lot from comprehending the other Dao Seeking Arts.

Just comprehending them would bring him incredible benefits.

That being said, he did not release Bai Fu who was suppressed by the Ownerless Heaven Pattern. He had no intention to let the man out unless it was necessary.

Time gradually passed. The Falling Dawn Sect held a tournament among the disciples on the second day.

On the same day, the Falling Dawn Immortal Mountain suddenly unleashed a brilliant light as a magnificent immortal intent swept across the place like a strong tide.

“What just happened?”

“The presence of Qi has grown six times stronger?”

“HAHA, now is the best time to cultivate!”

The cultivators were overjoyed amid the confusion.

Only some of them immediately thought about Qin Nan.

The Mountain Spirit of the Falling Dawn Immortal Mountain was only willing to strengthen the presence of Qi under Qin Nan’s request.

“Perhaps following Qin Nan wasn’t a bad choice.”

Some of the powerful cultivators murmured.

Meanwhile, in the World of Yang…

The Hundred-Knowing Sect, the Flying Sky Sect, the Sword Dao Sect, the Void Mind Sect, and many other factions…

Even though Lin Qingpo, Xiu Shenliang, Ci Renxian, Luo Yan, and the other Peerless Geniuses did not challenge the entire sect right away, they had also made their moves to become the Patriarchs of the sects they were in.

Countless battles took place across the factions. The Peerless Geniuses overcame the challenges and successfully claimed the seat of the Patriarch, and began to prepare for the upcoming battle.

The atmosphere intensified as the great battle approached.
