Chapter 1040 – Battle at the Desolated Battle Ancient Woods
A few days later, Qin Nan and the Princess returned to the Desolated Battle Ground.
As they arrived at the inner sector a few hours later, the leader of the Black Dragon and his crew—who had long received the information—immediately received them.
“Prin…princess, here are the treasures we collected according to your needs.”
The leader of the Black Dragon handed over a storage bag with a hint of unwillingness in his eyes.
“Mm, not bad.” Princess Miao Miao glanced at it before saying, “Take half of these.”
“Really?”
The people of the Black Dragon were overjoyed.
They had initially thought that they had no chance of getting the treasure.
“Of course, do you think I’ve time for nonsense?” Princess Miao Miao rolled her eyes, “However, I’ll need all of the Ownerless Martial Trees.”
“Not, not a problem! Has anyone found any Ownerless Martial Trees? Take them out now!”
The leader of the Black Dragon yelled.
In comparison to the treasures inside the storage bag, the Ownerless Martial Trees were not as useful.
After receiving another storage bag, Princess Miao Miao separated its contents and handed it to Qin Nan with a harrumph, “Even though your behavior wasn’t too satisfying lately, I’ll still give it to you since I’m such a generous person.”
“For me?”
Qin Nan was startled when he received the storage bag. His eyes flickered as he glimpsed inside it.
The storage bag had a total of ten Ownerless Martial Trees, with some valuable materials that were specifically useful to improve Martial Trees!
It was considered a great fortune for him!
“Princess, thanks!”
Qin Nan took a deep breath and said.
It seemed like Princess Miao Miao had kept the fact that he possessed five Martial Trees in mind. After all, it was incredibly difficult to improve all the Martial Trees at once.
However…
Qin Nan had to admit that the Princess had done a superb job.
She had managed to give him such a fortune without putting any effort into it.
He remembered the battles he had had to fight just to claim possession of a single Ownerless Martial Tree.
It somehow reflected an old saying, The only way to accumulate a great fortune within a short time was by robbing others.
That being said, even though Qin Nan was eager to do it, he decided against it in the end.
Everyone had different values and personalities. He was not willing to take the initiative to rob the others, as that would go against his own values.
“This place is quite boring. Let’s venture deeper into the inner sector. I do have something I need to search for too.” Princess Miao Miao’s eyes glistened, “Are you coming with me?”
Before Qin Nan could speak, the previously excited people of the Black Dragon were astounded, as their leader spoke with a trembling voice, “Princess…are you really planning to go deeper?”
They had spent years at the Desolated Battle Ground, thus they clearly knew how dangerous the deepest region was.
The terrifying battle intent alone would require a half-Martial Monarch to resist it with all their strength, let alone the dangers awaiting them.
Even the geniuses of the half-God region would not dare to enter the deepest region.
“What is it? Do you have any problem?” Princess Miao Miao said with disdain, “I didn’t ask you to go, what are you being so scared for?”
“I…”
The leader of the Black Dragon’s face flushed as he tried to defend himself on impulse, but he shook his head in the end.
Staying alive was more important than protecting their egos.
“HAHA, Princess, that’s what I was thinking too.”
Qin Nan burst out laughing.
He had seen Gong Yang’s map, thus he clearly understood a few places deep inside the inner sector that were extremely dangerous.
However, those places would always have the best fortunate encounters waiting to be discovered.
So what if it was dangerous?
As for the Ownerless Martial Trees and the materials given to him, he had decided to refine them at a later time, together with the rest of the treasure he would obtain in the near future to have a better outcome.
The people of the Black Dragon were left speechless.
These two were too daring. They had made up their minds to go to such a dangerous place without hesitation.
“You will continue to search the inner sector, especially the places I mentioned. Once we’ve resolved the danger inside, we’ll summon you again.”
Princess Miao Miao glanced at the crowd before heading deeper into the inner sector alongside Qin Nan.
“Leader…are they going to die?”
One of the vice-leaders of the Black Dragon could not help but ask as they left.
“Why are you asking the question? Don’t you know the answer yourself?”
The leader of the Black Dragon uttered a hollow laugh.
The rest of them followed.
It was definitely great news for them.
...After the period it took an incense to burn, on a pitch-black land filled with ravines and tremendous battle intent…
BANG!
Qin Nan held the Heaven-Shattering Saber in his hand while unleashing the Destruction Domain, slaying all of the demons he had stumbled into.
On the other hand, Princess Miao Miao waved her glowing hands, firing mystical beams to eliminate her targets.
Their teamwork was perfect.
“The Desolated Battle Ground is indeed extraordinary the deeper we are. Even peak Martial Progenitor Realm experts would have a headache resisting the battle intent alone!”
Qin Nan retrieved the treasure inside one of the ravines and glanced in the Princess’ direction.
He was now surrounded by a strong battle intent, causing his blood to boil. Not only was he not experiencing any negative influence, his strength had been boosted by at least three times!
However, the Princess was even more incredible, as she was not a successor of the Divine God of Battle.
He could only see a faint glow being emitted from her figure, which granted her an indescribably noble aura, protecting her as she advanced on the land filled with such a strong battle intent.
“Qin Nan-Nan, we’ll be there soon.” Princess Miao Miao said, “The place we’re heading consists of a huge Desolated Battle Ancient Woods and the corpses of a few Martial Monarch Realm experts. Just obey my instructions later.”
“Not a problem.”
Qin Nan nodded.
The Princess was able to control any herb in the world, thus she would know better in a mystical ground like this.
Not long after, many ancient trees stood firmly on the ground before them.
The trees were all ten zhang tall, with wide trunks. To their surprise, the branches and leaves were perfectly straight without any sign of bending, like the sharp edges of sabers.
This was the Desolated Battle Ancient Woods that the Princess had mentioned.
Qin Nan scanned the woods and keenly noticed that the Desolated Battle Ancient Trees contained some sort of intelligence. Furthermore, the battle intent of the entire place was three times stronger, so strong that it could almost solidify.
“No wonder the people of the Black Dragon were so intimidated…”
Qin Nan murmured as he entered the woods with Princess Miao Miao.
Whoosh!
The branches and leaves of the Desolated Battle Ancient Trees slapped in their direction with a ferocious might, as if they had come alive.
In addition to that, the formidable battle intent began to suppress their figures too.
“Mm?”
Qin Nan’s eyes flickered with a hint of murderous intent.
His body completely absorbed the battle intent around him like a giant black hole, which gradually formed an illusionary armor plate.
The Desolated Battle Ancient Trees shuddered and withdrew their attacks.
“This isn’t fair. This Desolated Battle Ground is like your home.” Princess Miao Miao curled her lips upon seeing the armor made of battle intent on Qin Nan’s body.
“Enough about me, I didn’t see you being affected by the battle intent either.”
Qin Nan was left speechless.
Upon arriving at the Desolated Battle Ancient Woods, the indistinct force of the Heavens and Earth emitting from her body had formed an impenetrable barrier around her.
Qin Nan and Princess Miao Miao exchanged glances with one another and saw a solemn expression in each other’s eyes.
The reason being that they had detected a strong aura!
And there was more than one person emitting it!
BANG!
Around thirty zhang away, an explosion took place, prompting Qin Nan and the Princess to turn around. They could see an old white-haired man with a youthful complexion wearing a white-robe while holding a horsetail whisk battling against two young men in purple robes with golden crowns on their heads.
“It’s them?” Qin Nan was startled.
Gong Yang had mentioned them in the map he had given to Qin Nan.
The half-Martial Monarch Realm expert of the Immortal Misty Sect, the Old Illusionist, the thirty-first ranked Qin Hou, and the thirty-ninth ranked Nangong Wei who had long ago made their way to the inner sector.
“Who’s there?”
The Old Illusionist, Qin Hou, and Nangong Wei turned their heads in Qin Nan’s direction as they suddenly became aware of their presence.
Following a glimpse, they immediately recalled something, halting their attacks.
“Qin…Qin Nan?”
