Chapter 1288 - The First Confrontation

As Qin Nan left Ancient City Taia, his eyes flickered in astonishment when he saw the scene before him.

The sky was an eerie red. There was no Qi descending from above, but rather streams of will instead.

In addition to that, the trees, flowers, grass, and even the rocks on the magnificent land had all been formed by cultivation will.

"I don't have a map. I have no choice but to look around."

Qin Nan calmed his thoughts and made up his mind, before flying into the sky.

As the saying went, getting started was always the hardest part.

When someone first entered the Abstruse God Space, they would find it to be the most clueless, boring period. The situation would only gradually become lively after they had found an Abstruse God Piece.

Time passed fairly quickly. Four hours were gone within the blink of an eye.

During this period, Qin Nan visited a few forests to search for the pieces. He did stumble into quite a few beasts and puppets formed by cultivation will and powerful forbidding formations.

However, he had yet to find an Abstruse God Piece. He only found some natural materials.

"Mm? Is that..."

Deep inside a mountain, Qin Nan came to a halt.

Through his left eye of the Divine God of Battle, he had located a powerful beast living at a pitch-black swamp, whose power was equivalent to the third-layer Martial Monarch Realm.

Besides the beast lay an abstruse stone the size of a palm, engulfed in flames.

"I've finally found an Abstruse God Piece!"

Qin Nan's eyes flickered. He stomped the ground without hesitation, unleashing his aura, which caused the mountain to tremble.

"Human, how dare you trespass on my territory!"

The terrifying beast in the swamp was instantly awakened. Its eyes were burning with fury. It raised its giant claw and swung it forward, firing a destructive shockwave in Qin Nan's direction!

"Slash!"

Qin Nan waved his hand, firing a terrifying saber intent into the sky. It shattered the shockwave with brute force, while the remaining saber intent spread out into thousands of tiny saber intents before landing all over the beast.

Whoosh!

Qin Nan grabbed a hold of the opportunity and landed beside the terrifying beast. He reached out with his hand and grabbed the Abstruse God Piece!

"Trying to take the Abstruse God Piece? Not today!"

The beast's expression suddenly became savage. Its body began to emit blinding rays as if an ancient formation inside it had been activated!

The terrifying beast was planning to detonate itself!

Although a third-layer Martial Monarch Realm beast was no match against Qin Nan, the power unleashed after it detonated itself would surely inflict incredible damage to Qin Nan!

"Break!"

Qin Nan did not panic. He leapt into the air with a kick, as a terrifying stream of the will of destruction was gathered at the tip of his finger. Following a flick, it burst forward and penetrated the beast's body like a godly sword.

"HAHAHA, my body is formed by cultivation will. Piercing through my body won't do any harm to me! Now, you shall die together with..."

The beast burst into great laughter.

However, before it could finish, its expression stiffened all of a sudden.

It became aware that the powerful will that had just penetrated its body had exploded, devouring the core of the ancient formation in its body like an ocean of will.

Within a breath's time, the blinding rays emitting from its body and the terrifying aura completely vanished. Even its body began to shatter into pieces.

It turned out that the ancient formation had granted the beast strength equivalent to the third-layer Martial Monarch Realm and the ability to blow itself up.

Once the formation was destroyed, the beast would crumble on its own.

"These Abstruse God Pieces aren't easily obtained."

Qin Nan's eyes glistened.

Before making his move, he did not expect the beast would be able to blow itself up.

If he had failed to react in time and detect the formation inside the beast's body, he would have been injured by now.

"Cultivator in the distance, perhaps there's no point in trying to hide any further?"

Qin Nan turned around and said calmly while looking into the distance.

In the midst of the battle, Qin Nan had already discovered the presence of a third-layer Martial Monarch in the forest far away.

"HAHA, such an impressive eye-technique. With only a cultivation of the first-layer Martial Monarch Realm, you were able to detect the formation inside the beast's body and discover my presence."

Following a burst of laughter, a figure flew out from the woods.

Although Qin Nan was unable to see the figure's face, he could tell that the person was a middle-aged man from the voice.

"Since your cultivation is fairly impressive, I will not make it troublesome for you. Hand over the Abstruse God Piece and you may leave."

The figure came to a stop, whose body was unleashing a vague aura like the presence of an ancient titan, making anyone nearby feel intimidated. 

If Qin Nan had managed to see the man's face, he would find that the figure was wearing a grin too.

The person had assumed that he was being merciful enough to demand only the Abstruse God Piece.

Other Martial Monarchs would surely ask him to hand over his materials and monarch arts.

Between Martial Monarchs, they too obeyed the law of jungle.

"I'm sorry, not a chance."

Qin Nan rejected the suggestion immediately. He continued on his way without wasting any more time.

"You..."

The figure was startled after seeing this.

He did not expect Qin Nan would reject him. Not only that, he had simply turned and left, without showing any respect to him.

How dare a mere first-layer Martial Monarch treat him with such an attitude?

"Well, well, well, you have quite the temper compared to those I've stumbled into before, but today, I'll teach you that having a temper isn't necessarily a good thing!"

The figure's voice became icy as he performed a monarch seal with his hands!

Snowflakes began to appear in the sky nearby, each turning into an icy sword that thrust in Qin Nan's direction!

The attack was one of the figure's powerful monarch arts, the Ice Domain!

Once it was executed, the snowflakes would seal off the surroundings, leaving the target with no escape. Even a second-layer Martial Monarch had no chance against it!

"Is that so?"

Qin Nan's eyes turned cold!

Since the person had taken the initiative to present himself, he could not blame Qin Nan for showing no mercy!
