Chapter 1006 – Crimson Blood Ancient Tomb
“This man has a sixth-grade Tian ranked Martial Spirit and a ninth-layer Martial Progenitor Realm cultivation, with various Monarch Arts, forbidden techniques, etc., a strong opponent indeed.” Although the genius of the God Ranking was protected by some aura, it did not prevent Qin Nan from thoroughly inspecting him with his left eye of the Divine God of Battle.
“With his strength, his ranking on the God Ranking should be quite low.”
Qin Nan withdrew his gaze. He was nothing compared to the genius with three Martial Spirits whom he had stumbled into before.
“Qin Nan, how did you pass the second trial?” Hua Dichen asked with disbelief.
Not only him, but the other geniuses were also curious too.
Most of the geniuses on the Worriless Boat were no doubt stronger than Qin Nan.
Qin Nan glimpsed at him without saying anything, entirely ignoring his question.
Hua Dichen’s gaze became cold upon seeing Qin Nan’s response, who took a deep breath to calm his thoughts and murmured, “It’s fine that he’s here in the third trial too. This place is filled with danger, thus I can easily set him up with a slight trick!”
At that instant, the thirteen formations on the altar began to glow.
Whoosh!
The altar descended rapidly and landed on a grey valley.
The crowd immediately scanned the surroundings and saw a crimson-red ancient tomb in front of them, which was magnificent like a giant mountain.
They were particularly astonished sensing the aura being emitted from it.
“As expected of a Half-God Tomb!”
“The aura alone is enough to make me excited!”
Some of the geniuses could not help but exclaim.
“This Half-God Tomb is quite strange…” Qin Nan detected a familiar presence as he tried to inspect the Half-God Tomb with his left eye. Before he could take a closer look, its forbidding aura immediately stopped him from peeking.
BANG!
Following a loud explosion…
The huge entrance of the crimson-red ancient tomb was slowly opened, resulting in a great breeze that swept toward the crowd.
“Let’s go inside!” The genius of the God Ranking blurted out as he thrust forward like a sword. The coat he was wearing emitted a faint monarch glow, encapsulating his figure.
The three Martial Monarchs’ sons, Dao Qianzhong, Hua Dichen, and the rest immediately followed behind.
“I don’t have any advantage here as I can’t reveal all my strength. Otherwise, I would have to kill all of them. I shall remain low-key for the time being.” Qin Nan made up his mind as he proceeded to the entrance.
If he found something extraordinary inside the Half-God Tomb, he would have to fight for it with his full strength.
Otherwise, it was best for him to hold his ground.
The crowd soon arrived at the first-floor of the ancient tomb.
As Qin Nan entered, the torches hanging on the walls were lit, lighting up the place instantly.
The first-floor of the tomb was decorated with countless statues, each the figure of a cultivator. Ancient drawings were hung on the walls, each with a different background, but the same blue-haired young man.
“This blue-haired young man must be the owner of the Half-God Tomb. He recorded his life with the ancient drawings, and these statues are possibly the cultivators he met in his life.” Qin Nan pondered when something on his right caught his attention.
He could see five ancient golden coffins.
“Ancient golden coffins?”
“There must be something inside!”
The genius of the God Ranking, Dao Qianzhong, and the others were intrigued, who immediately unleashed a shocking aura with their Monarch Arts, grabbing at the coffins.
The twelve geniuses began to fight one another to compete for the findings, resulting in a great storm inside the tomb.
Qin Nan remained in place as he continued to observe the place.
“Mm? Why did the drawings end here?” Qin Nan glanced at the last drawing, which illustrated the blue-haired young man sticking his broken sword into the ground, with a trail of blood beside his mouth. A distance away stood a blurry female figure, followed by a few hundred figures.
It was obvious that the female had led countless experts to assassinate the young man.
Five creaks could be heard all of a sudden, as the five ancient golden coffins began to open slowly.
The geniuses immediately glanced toward the coffins, including Qin Nan. As the lids were fully opened, a tremendous presence of Qi burst out from them, causing the first-floor of the tomb to turn into an ocean of Qi.
In each of the coffins lay a corpse, which appeared to be golden on the surface. A faint monarch intent could be sensed from them, and beside each corpse lay armor, a saber, a spear, and two arrows.
“Five monarch corpses?”
“Their weapons are still here!”
The geniuses inhaled deeply as their eyes burned with passion.
A monarch corpse was extremely valuable in the Middle Continent, not to mention the equipment that these Martial Monarch Realm experts were using when they were alive.
BANG!
The genius on the God Ranking, Dao Qianzhong, Hua Dichen, and the others instantly attacked with their strongest moves, unleashing their Martial Spirits and Martial Trees.
The battle immediately escalated.
If any of them were careless, death would be the penalty.
“Five monarch corpses and their equipment. They might be valuable, but not enough for me to involve myself in the battle…” Qin Nan murmured as he began observing the statues.
The twelve geniuses completely ignored Qin Nan’s presence.
“This statue looks similar to the woman in the drawing.”
Qin Nan came to a halt. The female statue in front of him had long hair that reached her waist, with a glamorous appearance. If she were alive, she would definitely be a great beauty.
Qin Nan also noticed that its eyes were different to the other statues, as if they were actually alive.
Whoosh!
The eyes of the statue suddenly emitted a blue glow.
Qin Nan was startled, whose body became tense.
However, to his surprise, the statue did not come alive as he had expected.
“There’s nothing wrong with the statue, which means there must be something special about the eyes.” Qin Nan glanced at the battle not far from him as he reached out his hand and softly flicked the eyes.
As he thought, two blue spheres dropped out from the eyes.
“Even the left eye of the Divine God of Battle can’t detect them, these might come in handy…” Qin Nan inspected the spheres for a while before storing them inside his bag.
Little did he know that the Beast-Hitting Stick in his storage bag had begun to glow.
