Chapter 50 - Xiao Leng (1/2)

Qin Nan soon calmed himself down.

It would take a crazy, unimaginable amount of pills to transform the current phantom-like figure of the Divine Battle Spirit into a real human.

On the other hand, Qin Nan now was poor as hell, and could not find a single pill on himself.

“F**k it, the priority now is to focus on cultivation.”

Qin Nan whispered something to himself; the Divine Battle Spirit behind him immediately unleashed an absorbing force, gathering the Qi from his surroundings.

After a stream of Qi entered his body, it turned into continuous rolling waves that covered his whole body, leading to a strengthening effect.

“As I broke through to the fifth layer Body Tempering Realm last time, I strengthened my inner body parts, but it wasn’t enough; I’ll need to continue strengthening them.”

Qin Nan clearly knew what to do, and controlled the abundant Qi to flow gradually toward the body parts.

For the time being, Qin Nan immersed himself in cultivating.

On the third day’s morning, Qin Nan’s whole body was giving out ‘Pi– li– pa– la–’ cracking sound, like beans being stir-fried.

In these three days, Qin Nan’s inner body parts had evolved to the next stage; his cultivation had now reached the peak of the fifth-layer Body Tempering Realm, only a small step away from the sixth-layer.

Despite that, it was impossible to take this step in a short period of time.

The reason was that Qin Nan had spent most of his time on practicing Martial Skills after reaching the fifth-layer Body Tempering Realm; he did not spend much time cultivating.

If he wanted to improve to the sixth-layer Body Tempering Realm, it would take at least ten days to do so, even with Qin Nan’s eighth-grade Huang ranked Martial Spirit.

“Phew.”

Qin Nan opened his eyes slowly and released a prolonged exhalation. He then rose and went out from the room.

Today was the last day before the start of the Trial of Versatility.

Prior to the trial, Qin Nan had promised Xiao Qingxue that he would come out of seclusion earlier to meet up with her.

As expected, when Qin Nan came out from the residential area, a gorgeous lady wearing blue clothes could be seen from afar.

However, something was different compared to previous occasions—there was a young man standing beside Xiao Qingxue.

The guy was wearing a black outfit; a frosty aura could be felt from him.

Qin Nan did a quick scan with his Eyes of the Divine Battle Spirit and immediately saw the guy’s cultivation to be of the seventh-layer Body Tempering Realm.

“Qin Nan.” Xiao Qingxue let out a soft exclamation when she saw Qin Nan. Following this, a surprised expression appeared in her beautiful eyes.

Even though Qin Nan still hadn’t achieved the sixth-layer of the Body Tempering Realm—which was what she had expected—there was something different about Qin Nan’s aura that she could not explain.

It was as if Qin Nan was encapsulated in a noble aura.

Xiao Qingxue did not hesitate for too long, as she quickly said, “The Trial of Versatility is starting soon. Here, take this. It’s called an Escape Orb. Once you break it, you will be teleported a mile away.”

Xiao Qingxue gently waved her hand, and on top of her pale, elegant palm was a floating orb.

This orb was thoroughly black, perfectly round in shape, and emitted an arcane force.

“Escape Orb?” Qin Nan glanced suspiciously at the orb, but he did not hesitate for too long before shaking his head and saying, “Qingxue, the help you’ve given me is sufficient. This Escape Orb is too precious, I couldn’t take it.”

“It’s my gift, you must take it.” It seemed like Xiao Qingxue had expected Qin Nan to reject her, as she straightened her face and said, “Unless I’m not a friend to you.”
