Chapter 219 - The Suppression of the Divine God of Battle (1/2)
In Qin Nan’s left eye, his left pupil was now green in color, surrounded by countless rising and falling arcane runes, which felt like a vast ocean of galaxies, capable of encapsulating the Heavens and the Earth.
The next moment, a strong suppression of the Divine God of Battle was rapidly unleashed from it.
“Ah!”
The Longhu Ancestor Beast let out a fearful cry as if something had just stepped on his tiger tail, as his enormous body instinctively escaped from the scene. He was finally able to control his terror after he was a hundred meters away from Qin Nan, despite his body continued to tremor.
“What…What is…What kind of eye is that…”
The Longhu Ancestor Beast was astounded, his teeth chattering.
“Haha.”
Qin Nan burst out laughing.
After merging with the left eye of the Divine God of Battle, his Eyes of the Divine Battle Spirit not only could peek at someone, but a new ability was awakened, which was named the Suppression of the Divine God of Battle!
By unleashing the suppression, he could restrain his opponent’s aura, bringing fear to his opponent, which would lower his opponent’s battle intent.
That being said, the reason why the Longhu Ancestor Beast was exceedingly intimidated by the Suppression of the Divine God of Battle was because his cultivation was sealed, plus he had suffered a serious injury after spitting out his Longhu Orb, leaving him in a weakened state.
Otherwise, the Suppression of the Divine God of Battle would have no effect on him, since he was an Ancestor Beast.
“The left eye of the Divine God of Battle possesses endless power, but I could only awaken one of its abilities as my cultivation is still too weak. When my cultivation is improved in the future, I will be able to awaken more abilities.” Qin Nan thought to himself, and closed his left eye and withdrew the suppression.
After all, the Longhu Ancestor Beast did sacrifice his Longhu Orb in order to save him.
“Monster, monster, monster…”
The Longhu Ancestor Beast slowly walked forward while mumbling to himself, not daring to challenge Qin Nan anymore.
Despite his pride and his noble blood, he had now realized that this mere human Qin Nan was more terrifying than himself and all the power he possessed.
“Hey, you should think of a way to leave this place since there is only one person who can survive in this trial. I just sacrificed a thousand years of my lifespan just to save you, you should not be ungrateful and harm me instead.”
The Longhu Ancestor Beast blurted out as a sudden thought came up to him.
“I know, don’t you worry.”
Qin Nan immediately raised his head and stared at the sky above him before yelling, “Nine Symbolic Words, why aren’t you guys revealing yourselves still?”
Qin Nan had now learned that the Hidden Tenth Word Treasure never existed. The legendary tenth word ‘Zhan’[1] was actually referring to the left eye of the Divine God of Battle, and everything here was a set up organized by it.
BANG! BANG! BANG!
A series of explosions could be heard as nine blurry figures landed from above.
“Qin Nan, congratulations on being approved of by the godly object.” The Weapon Spirit of the word ‘Lin’ was the first to speak, “Since you have passed the trial, you can now leave this place.”
“Before I leave, I have a request: I want to obtain the Heaven-shattering Life Sustaining Ointment.”
Qin Nan immediately spoke.
The Weapon Spirit of the word ‘Lin’ exchanged glances with the other Weapon Spirits, before letting out a calm smile, “You are the successor of the godly object, hence we surely would not reject your request. However, according to our rules, only by becoming our successor will you be able to take the treasures. My friend Qin Nan, why don’t you become the successor of the Nine Symbolic Words, and we would be willing to grant you our strength.”
Beside him, the Longhu Ancestor Beast dropped his jaw. What is going on, are the Nine Symbolic Words taking the initiative to ask Qin Nan to be their master?
“What requirement does it take to be your successor?”
Qin Nan did not accept the offer straight away.
“You would need to fulfill a duty given by the Nine Symbolic Words.” The Weapon Spirit of the word ‘Lin’ spoke laughingly, “This duty would be an easy task for you.”
“There is no need for that.”
Qin Nan did not consider for too long, who instantly replied, “I don’t need your help, I only want the Heaven-shattering Life Sustaining Ointment.”
The Longhu Ancestor Beast was thoroughly stunned. It was his first time witnessing someone rejecting the Nine Symbolic Words.
What he did not know was that since Qin Nan had obtained the left eye of the Divine God of Battle and the Divine Battle Spirit, there was no need for other fortunate encounters. Most importantly, Qin Nan had realized an important question, Now that I have found the left eye which had been waiting a thousand years for me, is it possible that the right eye, and the entire body, is also waiting for me too?
Qin Nan could faintly feel that the body of the Divine God of Battle was linked to a shocking secret, hence his top priority now was to gather the body parts of the Divine God of Battle instead of fulfilling the duty of the Nine Symbolic Words.
“As I thought…’
The Weapon Spirit of the word ‘Lin’ exchanged glances with the others, and let out a sigh after seeing Qin Nan’s firm determination. After a slight hesitation, he said, “I can give you the Heaven-shattering Life Sustaining Ointment, but I hope that you will owe us a favor, as I’m afraid we will need your help in the future.”
Qin Nan let out a sigh of relief and said in a serious tone, “Sure.”
A man’s promise is worth a thousand gold.
“That alone is more than enough!”
The Weapon Spirit of the word ‘Lin’ was satisfied, who immediately flicked his finger without any delay, firing the wooden box which Princess Miao Miao had aimed for in the first place into Qin Nan’s hands.
“Hey, hey, hey, Weapon Spirits of the Nine Symbolic Words, since Qin Nan has rejected your offer, you guys can choose me to be your successor!”
The Longhu Ancestor Beast impatiently leaped into mid-air.
