Chapter 1898 The Three Gazes in the Darkness
“Zong Chang, you…”
Lu Gufeng, Meng Jinxian, and the Exceptional Geniuses did not expect him to attack Qin Nan.
“Don’t…”
Gong Wuhua’s eyes widened.
Even though he treated Qin Nan as his enemy, Yun Zhongyue was still in Qin Nan’s hands. What would happen to Yun Zhongyue if Qin Nan was dead?
“Great!”
The Immortal Emperors and the skeleton cultivators in gray robes were overjoyed.
“Tertiary Illusion: God Slaying Sword!”
Zong Chang arrived before Qin Nan. He let out a burst of eerie laughter as the ancient sword in his hand unleashed a terrifying power.
Zang Gu’s words had greatly convinced him to attack Qin Nan.
He strongly believed the victory was within their grasp as long as Jiang Ni successfully achieved the Peerless Ruler Realm.
However, if Qin Nan was successful with his breakthrough, he would still end up as his enemy.
In addition to it, he was fond of the Painting of Life and Destruction and the Fruits of the Heavens and Earth too.
“How dare you!”
Doom let out a thunderous roar. He swung his enormous claw, but Yin Yi laughed sinisterly as the casket on his back suddenly flung open. A rotten hand reached out from it and held Doom in place.
Doom was startled. He had no choice but to defend himself.
“Qin…”
Doom could not care less anymore. He was about to unleash his Dao intent to wake Qin Nan up forcibly.
The chance of breaking through to the Peerless Ruler Realm was extremely precious, yet it was nothing compared to Qin Nan’s life.
In the nick of time, a formidable sword intent soared into the sky just as Zong Chang was about to get his way. It slashed right at the Tertiary Illusion: God Slaying Sword.
“Who’s there?”
The smile on Zong Chang’s face froze. He took a few steps back and grunted.
“Dao Execution Gate, Wu Huisheng.”
A man and a sword appeared close to Qin Nan. His eyes did not show the slightest emotion.
He had come to the Wonderful Fruit City a few days ago to participate in the gathering.
However, unlike the Battle of the Strongest Immortal, his brilliance was shrouded by most of the Exceptional Geniuses.
“Wu Huisheng?”
“The number one Peerless Genius of the Dao Execution Gate?”
Several cultivators soon recalled who Wu Huisheng was.
The Immortal Emperors, Exceptional Geniuses, and the others were stunned.
They did not expect a mere Peerless Genius to intervene under the circumstances.
“If you want to kill him, you should wait until he’s done with his breakthrough,” Wu Huisheng said calmly.
He had returned to his sect and cultivated in seclusion after the Battle of the Strongest Immortal.
In the end, he decided to treat Qin Nan as an obstacle he must overcome in his path of cultivation.
If he had the chance, he would destroy Qin Nan’s Dao by defeating him. He would then achieve the Perfect Success Stage of the Dao Realm.
Qin Nan was an enemy of life and death to him, but he would not allow anyone to intervene with his breakthrough for now.
The stronger Qin Nan was, the greater the obstacle he had to face.
And he would surpass himself by taking a step at a time, until he was able to kill Qin Nan with his own strength!
“Breakthrough my ass, how dare you mere Peerless Genius stand before me? I’ll crush you too!”
Zong Chang was enraged. The sword in his hand turned into wisps of sword intents.
“So what if I’m a Peerless Genius? You don’t even have the right to become my obstacle.”
“The others might be afraid of you, but I’m not.”
Wu Huisheng remained still. He fully unleashed the power of the Dao Execution Scriptures. His sword intents glowed brilliantly.
“Cultivator Wu, I’ll lend you a hand. We’ll teach that assh*** a lesson!”
Xiu Shenliang yelled. He took out the Painting of Life and Destruction again and shattered the illusions that Zong Chang’s sword intents contain.
BANG BANG BANG!
A series of explosions took place.
Wu Huisheng’s strength greatly surpassed the rest of the Peerless Geniuses. It was even remarkable with the help of the Painting of Life and Destruction.
However, they still could not match Zong Chang’s strength.
They were soon suppressed by Zong Chang’s sword intents. If it wasn’t for Wu Huisheng’s Dao Execution Will, the others might assume they were already devoured by the overwhelming sword intents.
“Cultivator Zong Chang, I shall aid you!”
Lu Qingyin suddenly transmitted her thoughts.
She had been observing the situation all along. She decided to act now because she did not want Qin Nan to fall here, yet she could not afford to let Qin Nan break through to the Peerless Ruler Realm successfully.
Whoosh!
The force of the Heavens and Earth poured down on Zong Chang, strengthening his aura.
The cultivators were dumbfounded. They did not expect the Tribe of Immortal Spirits to be involved too.
“Die!”
Zong Chang yelled as he spread his arms. The sword intents that scattered across the place rapidly gathered and slammed into Wu Huisheng and the Painting of Life and Destruction.
Wu Huisheng and Xiu Shenliang groaned. They spat out a mouthful of blood as they were knocked flying by the impact.
“Kill!”
Zong Chang’s long hair drifted wildly. He darted at Qin Nan murderously like an ancient demon.
However, his body suddenly froze in his track.
“Isn’t…isn’t that…”
Zong Chang’s hands began to tremble.
He felt three gazes locking onto him within an instant.
Each of the gazes possessed a terrifying will!
“Why are you stopping? Kill him now…”
The skeleton cultivators were about to lose their minds. It was such a great opportunity, but Zong Chang suddenly stopped moving.
BANG!
A terrifying aura soared into the sky.
Several ancient runes surfaced on Jiang Ni’s body. They rapidly gathered in one place before shattering into pieces. His eyes sprang open.
Following it, a few wisps of outstanding forces burst out of his body. Not only did his cultivation reach the Peerless Ruler Realm, it felt as if some seal had been broken too.
“How was he done so quickly?”
The skeleton cultivators and the Immortal Emperors were stunned. Their hearts sank to the bottom as their hands turned cold.
The genius had broken out of the cocoon. A new emperor had appeared!
The tide of the battle was about to turn in the opposite direction!
“Jiang Ni, you…”
Zong Chang opened his mouth.
“Be gone!”
He was greeted by the cold words.
An enormous hand reached out from the rift and struck Zong Chang mercilessly. The man immediately cried out in agony as he was sent flying.
Doom, the Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor, Xiu Shenliang, Wu Huisheng, Meng Jiugong, and the others let out a relieved sigh. They managed to stop Zong Chang and the others!
“I’m now an Immortal Emperor. Immortal Emperor Gushi, shouldn’t you be running now considering it’s your last chance?”
Jiang Ni rose to his feet. He placed his hands on his back with a cold look in his eyes.
