Chapter 217 - I Am Who I Am (1/2)

Darkness!

Endless darkness!

Qin Nan could feel his body turn heavy like a mountain, sinking endlessly.

“So… I died.”

A thought rose up in Qin Nan’s mind. Following this, a strong fatigue completely devoured him, like a rising tide.

He sank into a deep sleep.

However, at that instant, a brilliant light penetrated the darkness, which transformed into a giant hand, grabbing Qin Nan and pulling him upward, out from the endless abyss.

“This is…”

Qin Nan opened his eyes, and was stunned after feeling the growing force within his body.

Didn’t I die?

How am I alive now?

“Qin Nan!”

At that instant, a sudden cry was heard, which turned out to be coming from the Divine Battle Spirit.

The current Divine Battle Spirit was different than before. His left eye was completely visible with a strong sense of life, causing its blurry figure to feel more alive than before, as if the Divine God of Battle was reborn.

“The left eye of the Divine God of Battle!”

Qin Nan’s expression changed as he said, “Why are you taking over my body?”

“Why? Are you asking me why?” The skull of the Divine Battle Spirit glanced downwardly at him, which uttered a thunderous voice, “The Divine Battle Spirit wages war against the Heavens and Earth. There is none He does not fight and none He does not win against, and you chose to surrender by lowering your head. Do you think you have the right to possess this Divine Battle Spirit?”

Qin Nan could feel his mind exploding and his soul shaking as his eyes were filled with a hint of confusion.

Did he really do the wrong thing?

Was it really the wrong thing to lower your head for the sake of your friend?

“Qin Nan, do you have any idea how stupid your so-called friends are!” The Divine Battle Spirit reached out its hand and flicked its finger, producing a screen. On the screen, Princess Miao Miao transformed into a Nine-spirited Ascended Ginseng after realizing Qin Nan was dead, and sacrificed her own primary force to save him. The Longhu Ancestor Beast spat out his Longhu Orb, which was formed with his hundred years of cultivation, and fired it into Qin Nan’s body. Following this, Princess Miao Miao slowly walked toward Qin Nan and spoke in a low tone.

Qin Nan was utterly stunned after seeing this.

Did Princess Miao Miao just sacrifice her primary force just to save his life?

Why is she saving me?

Isn’t she hoping for me to die, so the blood pact would be undone?

In Qin Nan’s heart, he had always assumed that Princess Miao Miao was only siding with him for the sake of benefits, and due to the restraints of the blood pact; otherwise, they would surely be enemies. He never thought there existed any friendship between between himself and Princess Miao Miao. However, the unexpected scene before him completely proved him wrong.

“Did you see that? These are your stupid friends!” The Divine Battle Spirit raised its tone, “In order to save you, they both sacrificed their primary force. It does sound touching, but the outcome? Let me tell you, this trial is not a trial from the Nine Symbolic Words. I set up this trial in which, from the beginning, you are doomed to die, and your friends too!”

“They have paid a great price for your sake, but in the end, you are still a burden to them!”

The voice of the Divine Battle Spirit caused the Heavens and Earth to tremble, “The Divine God of Battle needs no friend. Friends would only encumber your steps. A real Divine God of Battle is an enemy of the Heavens and Earth, who fights everything he encounters, who will emerge from the battles and become a peerless Divine God of Battle! Friends are all useless…”

Before it finished its speech, a sudden blasting laugh echoed within the space.

“HAHAHAHA!”

Qin Nan uttered a deafening laugh, as if he was not aware of his situation, whose face wore a joyful expression. His eyes were no longer filled with doubts, but a firm determination.
