Chapter 350 - Sweeping the Hord (1/2)

“Reporting to City Lord—there are one thousand three hundred and sixty-four people participating in the competition!”

A disciple went up to Zheng Kuo and said.

“That many?”

Zheng Kuo’s face overflowed with joy. While being shocked, he felt incredibly proud of his outstanding wisdom.

He had spent a certain amount of Contribution Points to invite Li Xiaoxue, Bai Shao, and the legendary King of Robbing, Yu Luosha, to join the competition. Following this, the crowd was made to believe that Qin Nan was planning to join the competition too with his little trick. Furthermore, his luck was on point when he had stumbled into Sacred Leader Qinglong’s freshly recruited disciple, Duan Qing, and took ahold of the opportunity to further promote the competition.

All of these procedures were to stimulate the disciples, causing them to feel that this King of Robbing Competition was extraordinarily grand.

“That Duan Qing is so naive, feeling satisfied with merely one hundred Contribution Points. If I knew it all along, I wouldn’t have spent a few hundred Contribution Points just to invite those Kings of Robbing from previous competitions…” Despite the outcome, Zheng Kuo still felt slightly disappointed, like finding a fly in the ointment.

If these King of Robbing were as stupid as Duan Qing, I would definitely have made a huge fortune.

...Meanwhile, in the City of Black Hands...

The cultivators simultaneously unleashed their Divine Sense after entering the city to find a hiding spot.

Qin Nan arrived at a small hut in a remote area and sat down with his legs crossed to prepare himself for the competition. After half the period it took for an incense to burn had passed, his eyes sprang open and he glanced toward the center of the City of Black Hands.

“The formation is activated; everyone’s cultivation will be restricted. The first round of the King of Robbing Competition now begins!”

Zheng Kuo floated in mid-air and declared in a blasting tone. Behind him, a total of twenty custodians whose cultivations had reached the Martial Emperor Realm executed a few hand gestures while forming the formation that then encapsulated the entire City of Black Hands.

BANG!

The whole City of Black Hands, covering an area with a circumference of over nine hundred zhang, began to vibrate tremendously. An ancient formation was rapidly awakened, and following it, streams of invisible force spread to its surroundings before crushing down toward the city.

Qin Nan was startled; his blood, flesh, Divine Sense, and Inner Core were being suppressed by an invisible force, aiming to seal his cultivation off.

“Is it true that this forbidding aura cannot be overpowered?”

A hysterical smile appeared on Qin Nan’s face as he uttered a yell, “Be gone!”

The Dragon-Lined Golden Core inside his body glowed with great brilliancy while emitting cries of dragons, which collided with the invisible force and instantly shattered it. As a result, Qin Nan’s cultivation of the peak Martial Emperor Realm remained perfectly unaffected.

Qin Nan had already predicted this to happen.

Previously, his Nine-Lined Golden Core had already possessed an unbelievable power, not to mention the power it possessed after evolving into a Dragon-Lined Golden Core when it merged with the soul of the huge purple fish.

Even though the forbidding aura of the City of Black Hands was quite powerful and was able to suppress Martial Dominator Realm cultivators, it still did not stand a chance against his Dragon-Lined Golden Core!

“Let’s check where the others are!”

Qin Nan’s left eye emitted a golden glow as he scanned his surroundings.

The Martial Dominator Realm experts who caught his attention—including Li Xiaoxue, Bai Shao, and the f**king gay[1] Zhao Fang—all had their cultivations restricted to the peak Xiantian Realm.

“Zheng Kuo, according to your words, I’m not breaking the rules if I managed to get rid myself of the restrictions of the City of Black Hands. Don’t you accuse me later!”

Qin Nan’s eyes were filled with excitement.

His cultivation right now was at the peak of the Martial Emperor Realm, while the others were being restricted to the peak of the Xiantian Realm. The situation was similar to placing a tiger into a herd of sheep. Although it was more than a thousand sheep facing a tiger, they would all end up as a great feast for the tiger!

“Let the hunting begin!”

With a flicker, Qin Nan landed on the street of the City of Black Hands and roamed around at will.

Meanwhile, the entire City of Black Hands was immersed in murderous cries as a series of battles took place continuously.

“Hit him!”

“Have a taste of my fists!”

“Down you go!”

“……”

Qin Nan was like a ferocious tiger making his trip down the mountain, and along his path, every envoy or custodian he stumbled into was knocked out with a single punch. As a matter of fact, he even controlled the might of his punches to prevent his attacks from killing them.

In just a short period of time, a total of twenty cultivators were sent to the ground with a punch each, while their badges were robbed, resulting in a series of cries of agony.

“I’ve earned four hundred Contribution Points in such a short amount of time!”
