Chapter 1229 - Hiking up the Upper Arcana Sacred Mountain
...Meanwhile, in the crystal palace on the mountain...
"Are you sure that we can't take this rock?"
Princess Miao Miao stared at the Heavenly Fortune Rock with glistening eyes. The aura in her body had become restless.
Judging from the flicker that was emitted by the Heavenly Fortune Rock and based on her experience plundering treasures for the past few hundred years, the Heavenly Fortune Rock would turn out to be more valuable than what she had imagined before.
"Don't, please don't, madam, I'm begging you."
Wang Zhao was utterly terrified. He almost burst out crying.
Didn't he already warn her?
If she touched the Heavenly Fortune Rock, death would be upon them soon.
"Coward."
Princess Miao Miao curled her lips.
"I..."
Wang Zhao could feel his lips twitching as if he had just been stabbed in his heart. Meanwhile, the faint glow from the Heavenly Fortune Rock slowly disappeared and returned to normal.
Wang Zhao immediately pulled a long face.
What the hell, not only did he lose the bet and was being picked on, even the rock was pulling a prank on him.
"Sigh, forget it. I didn’t have any hope for it to begin with anyway."
Wang Zhao wore a gloomy look.
From what he had been told, since the Ancient Battleground was discovered the Heavenly Fortune Rock had only been triggered a few times, which would reveal the location of the Upper Arcana Sacred Mountain. Each time was at least a few hundred years apart, with no way of determining the exact time it would happen.
BANG!
At that instant, an utterly formidable aura burst out from Qin Nan's body. The entire crystal palace began to shake vigorously!
"It's done?"
Princess Miao Miao and Wang Zhao were startled, whose eyes were filled with astonishment!
The aura alone brought incredible pressure onto them!
If Qin Nan's previous nine Martial Trees were like an impassable giant mountain, his current presence felt like an imperial mountain, a magical mountain that had surpassed everything, one that could only be looked up at!
Howl!
The cries of demons appeared out of nowhere!
Countless black phantoms rushed into the cave with formidable murderous auras, like a great army from the ancient era!
"The rules of cultivation of the Canglan Continent have come to kill Qin Nan?"
Wang Zhao's heart shuddered as his scalp turned numb!
The scene he was witnessing had only existed in ancient tales!
"Trying to kill Qin Nan?"
Princess Miao Miao's adorable face instantly displayed an imposing expression!
An incredible force slowly awakened inside her body!
Whoosh!
Qin Nan's eyes sprang open as his left eye emitted a brilliant glow which filled the entire crystal palace!
"You failed to kill me last time and you dare to come again? Begone!"
Qin Nan reached out his hand and slapped forward at the air!
BANG!
An incredible might surged forward. Within a few breaths' time, the swarm of illusionary figures was completely shattered!
In the past, Qin Nan had had to rely on the mysterious golden seal to deal with them. However, he now only needed a single slap!
As the group of three Divine Battle Trees merged with the Destruction Martial Tree and the five Divine Battle Trees, it had triggered an incredible change to the six Martial Trees, which had never happened in history before!
In other words, Qin Nan had combined his nine Martial Trees into six Martial Trees!
On top of that, each of the six Martial Trees had surpassed the rules of cultivation!
Before, Qin Nan could only be considered as having surpassed the rules of cultivation by gathering the nine Martial Trees together. Now, each of his Martial Trees alone was enough to be considered as having surpassed the rules of cultivation. How terrifying would his strength be?
"Hehe, as expected of someone that I taught."
Princess Miao Miao smilingly claimed her credit!
"Just...a single slap?"
Wang Zhao was left dumbfounded.
He had just fought against Qin Nan, thus he could almost predict how strong Qin Nan would be with his full strength. However, he no longer had a grasp of it now.
"Qin...Master...How strong are you now?"
Wang Zhao swallowed his saliva and asked.
"How strong am I? I have no idea. Why don't you test it out?"
Qin Nan's face was filled with excitement.
He still had no idea how strong he had become after ranking up to an entirely different level.
"AH! No, it's fine. I'm not interested!"
Wang Zhao took a few steps backward and shook his head rapidly with a wry smile.
He had initially thought that he would be able to beat Qin Nan one day and eventually rejoice as he reclaimed his freedom. But how could he possibly have a chance at beating Qin Nan now?
"Huh?"
Qin Nan suddenly frowned.
For some reason, he had a strange feeling in his heart.
It felt like someone had just come to the Upper Arcana.
"Hmm, forget it."
Qin Nan shook his head and glanced at Wang Zhao.
He currently had seven Heavenly Arcana Sacred Fruits and one hundred and twenty Heavenly Arcana Spiritual Fruits, which would add up to one million six hundred and fifty thousand contribution points. He was still quite a distance away from having three million contribution points, thus he was planning to look for more of the Heavenly Arcana Sacred Fruits.
Wang Zhao seemed to be quite familiar with the Upper Arcana, thus it made sense to ask him about it.
Meanwhile, a great buzz echoed in the crystal palace. The Heavenly Fortune Rock that had become silent began to vibrate vigorously as it emitted several blinding rays of light.
"Mm?"
Qin Nan and Princess Miao Miao turned their heads toward it.
"Is this..."
Wang Zhao held his breath.
Whoosh!
A magical glow burst out from the Heavenly Fortune Rock and penetrated the crystal palace and the mountain before disappearing into the sky!
"F**k me! The Heavenly Fortune Rock has been activated! The Upper Arcana Sacred Mountain is about to appear!"
Wang Zhao flushed in excitement!
It was actually happening even though he had just given up on the thought!
"What's the Upper Arcana Sacred Mountain?"
In comparison, Qin Nan and Princess Miao Miao looked calm and slightly confused.
"Cough cough, you must have heard that the Ancient Battleground is split into the Heavenly Arcana, the Upper Arcana, and the Lower Arcana. The Heavenly Arcana is the most mysterious as no one knows how to enter it, right?
"In fact, the only way to enter the Heavenly Arcana is through the Upper Arcana Sacred Mountain! There are rumors about people who have found their way to the Heavenly Arcana and disappeared. They actually did it through the Upper Arcana Sacred Mountain!
"Most importantly, it's possible to obtain Heavenly Arcana Immortal Fruits from the Upper Arcana Sacred Mountain!"
Qin Nan and Princess Miao Miao's eyes flickered after hearing this.
