Chapter 1169 - Rupturing Murderous Inten

t
At that instant, not only were the elders and disciples were stunned, even the Dragon Emperor, the Martial Monarchs of the Middle Continent, Martial Monarch Jiwu, and Martial Monarch Yuyao were completely dumbfounded.
No one had expected this to be the outcome.
Qin Nan's expression remained perfectly calm.
The reason he had rejected the offers from the two factions was mainly because, in his opinion, not only would it not bring him any benefits, it would end up restraining him too.
Besides, he had keenly noticed two suspicious points.
Firstly, why would each of the South-Heaven Sacred Ground, Martial Principle Sect, and Jade-Lake Sacred Ground have a genius surpassing the rules of cultivation almost around the same time?
Secondly, why would the three great factions come together to announce the change of rules for the recruitment of new disciples?
Qin Nan had no clue what the answers to the two questions were, but he was confident that the three great factions had the same goal in mind, and for that, they were willing to work together to achieve their goal.
As such, if Qin Nan ended up joining either the Martial Principle Sect or the Jade-Lake Sacred Ground, when he was fully prepared to shatter the South-Heaven Gate but his faction had decided to stop him, what would he do?
Qin Nan was a grateful person. If the faction treated him well, he would see them as his family.
Therefore, he had no intention to make the situation more complicated than it already was now.
As for the danger he would be facing after his secret of surpassing the rules of cultivation was exposed?
It was never something that Qin Nan was concerned about.
He had never wanted to join a faction so he could be protected.
"Senior Jiwu, Senior Yuyao, and everyone else, I know you all are eager to know how I've surpassed the rules of cultivation. I swear in the name of the Heavens and Earth that I don't really mind telling everyone the truth."
Qin Nan said with a faint smile.
As he thought, the words entirely staggered Martial Monarch Jiwu, Martial Monarch Yuyao, and the entire crowd who had yet to recover from their previous shock.
Had they heard it right?
Was Qin Nan seriously willing to tell them his secret?
"Are...are you serious?"
Martial Monarch Yuyao probed after hesitating for a while.
Just like what the Martial Monarch from before mentioned, the Jade-Lake Sacred Ground and the Martial Principle Sect had high hopes in Qin Nan firstly because he had surpassed the rules of cultivation. Even if he failed to achieve the Martial Monarch Realm, there was still a chance for him after a hundred years. Secondly, they were eager to know the method he had used to surpass the rules of cultivation too.
"Of course I'm serious. I, Qin Nan, now swear in the name of the Heavens and Earth that if any of my following words are a lie, I'll be struck by lightning, and my cultivation shall crumble."
As he had exposed the fact that he had surpassed the rules of cultivation, many people would try to hunt him down so they could learn the secret from him, thus placing him in great danger.
That was most likely Shen Tianjing's primary goal.
Therefore, it would be better for him to reveal it himself.
After all, he had to rely on the force of the Divine God of Battle when he first formed the second Martial Tree. Therefore, apart from Qin Nan, no one in the world would be able to use the same method to form more than one Martial Tree.
As such, it would not matter if the truth was revealed, plus it would save him from trouble too.
"I once read a book which provoked me to have a thought; why should every cultivator only have a single Martial Tree? Why should we only have one Martial Spirit?
"Therefore, I began to ask myself, why can't I have two Martial Trees, or even more?
"Somehow, I was able to obtain a mysterious force coincidentally, and used it as the foundation to form more Martial Trees, which allowed me to surpass the rules of cultivation."
Qin Nan explained thoroughly.
His explanation was not lengthy, but it still served as a shocking thunder in the ears of the crowd.
"That's right! Why must it be only one Martial Tree? Why can't we have two?"
"Holy crap! Using another force to form the second Martial Tree?"
"It's that simple?"
"Are you an idiot, the risk must be extremely huge, and that mysterious force is the key to it!"
Several voices filled with astonishment could be heard on the dojo.
The eyes of the Martial Monarchs, elders and disciples flickered with astonishment, with excitement on their faces.
Obviously, Qin Nan's words had opened a new door for them.
That being said, not only them, once the news spread outward, it would be pushing a new door open for the cultivators of the entire Canglan Continent.
"Cultivator Qin Nan, thanks for the information. If you're keen, the door of the Martial Principle Sect is always open for you!" Martial Monarch Jiwu gave Qin Nan thoughtful glance before he stepped into the glowing door behind him and disappeared.
"Keke, Qin Nan, you're quite interesting. I hope we'll meet again!"
Martial Monarch Yuyao giggled before her figure vanished with a flicker too.
Since they had learned the method of surpassing the rules of cultivation, there was no point for them to stay any longer.
After all, Qin Nan had yet to achieve the Martial Monarch Realm, and his Martial Spirit was only fifth-grade Tian ranked.
"Not bad, it seems like Qin Nan did not completely lose his mind because of anger. With this, the entire Canglan Continent will experience a new trend of cultivation. Many will also shift their focus away from Qin Nan..."
Gong Yang could not help but let out a relieved sigh.
He always knew that Qin Nan was very smart.
Although he would act foolishly at certain times.
"Well, well, well!"
Suddenly, a voice exploded in the sky.
A terrifying monarch aura surged across the sky like a magnificent ocean.
The person turned out to be Martial Monarch Nanjian, who had remained silent for a period of time.
The crowd only saw Martial Monarch Nanjian wearing a dark face as he pointed at the ground and snapped with a thunderous voice "Qin Nan, you dare to leave six disciples of the South-Heaven Sacred Ground as half-cripples. You've committed a serious offense. I will now eliminate you!"
BANG!
Martial Monarch Nanjian slapped forward, firing a terrifying sword glow downward!
The attack was enough to destroy the entire glowing dojo!
"How bold!"
"Martial Monarch Nanjian, you shameless prick!"
"Trying to bully the people of the Middle Continent?"
The Dragon Emperor, Extraordinary Saber Monarch, Fallen Demon Monarch, and the rest of the Martial Monarchs stepped forward and unleashed their tremendous anger!
They could not afford to stand there and watch Martial Monarch Nanjian harm Qin Nan in front of the crowd!
As for the accusation of Qin Nan half-crippling the six disciples of the South-Heaven Sacred Ground?
Even without mentioning how the South-Heaven Sacred Ground had humiliated the Middle Continent and the Dragon Emperor Clan, the rules of the duel had already stated it to be a battle of life and death. Qin Nan had been kind enough to let them live!
Everything had been done according to the agreed rules!
Martial Monarch Nanjian showed no hint of surprise as if he had already expected this. He snapped, "Dragon Emperor, and fellow Martial Monarchs, not only did Qin Nan cripple six of our disciples, but he is also a three-starred enemy of the South-Heaven Gate. If you are trying to stop me, you will be considered an enemy of the South-Heaven Sacred Ground!"
Hearing the words, the initial infuriated looks of the Dragon Emperor and the others stiffened, as their eyes were filled with great astonishment.
A three-starred enemy?
Qin Nan was a three-starred enemy of the South-Heaven Gate?
Are you kidding me!
