Chapter 488 - My Master (1/2)
Why would Sacred Leader Qinglong allow Progenitor Wen Dao to harm them despite having such formidable strength? Why had he only revealed his true strength now? Why did he have to wait until Tang Qingshan and the others were placed under the Curse of Death by the Death Emperor...
Qin Nan’s mind was filled with countless doubts.
“You will know my identity very soon.” Sacred Leader Qinglong’s aura dropped rapidly as he spoke in a calm tone, “You must be curious as to the reason why I didn’t get rid of Progenitor Wen Dao and his crew at the very beginning, right? It’s all for your sake!”
“For my sake?”
Qin Nan was startled.
What do I have anything to do with it?
“Since I joined the Qinglong Sacred Area three hundred years ago, Progenitor Wen Dao and the others have been planning a scheme to refine me, but I was never concerned about it, because of you!” Sacred Leader Qinglong’s gaze turned sharp as he continued, “Only through battles will you be able to grow quicker and become an expert! Only through witnessing the cruelty of the world, will you be able to strengthen your will to pursue the path of cultivation!”
Qin Nan’s heart shuddered violently upon hearing this.
“When you defeated Ling Zixiao in the Trial of Versatility, I was watching. When you were participating in the Trial of the Outer Domain Disciples at the Mystic Spirit Sect, I was watching too. Following this, you’ve slain the son of the Sect Leader, destroyed the Ancient Dragon Auction of the Trading Alliance at Jianghuang City. You stumbled into the Demonic-Cored Highness in the Martial Ancestor Mystical Ground. Whether it be the Grand Competition of the Sixteen Mountains, or here at the Ocean of Death, I’ve always been watching you.”
Sacred Leader Qinglong calmed his tone.
Qin Nan’s mind went blank. He had not expected someone to be watching him from the very beginning. After a prolonged pause, he took a deep breath and said, “So who are you? Why are you training me? How about Tang Qingshan and the others who were inflicted with the Curse of Death——”
Sacred Leader Qinglong interrupted before he could finish, “Don’t worry, Tang Qingshan and the rest are fine.”
Sacred Leader Qinglong stared into Qin Nan’s eyes while saying at a slow pace, “It’s because you are no ordinary person. You are carrying a greater responsibility than you could have expected.”
Qin Nan was startled.
Carrying a greater responsibility?
What kind of responsibility would provoke Sacred Leader Qinglong to wait for him since three hundred years ago?
For some reason, Qin Nan could detect some indescribable feeling from Sacred Leader Qinglong’s eyes, as if he had been anticipating his arrival for ages.
Why had Sacred Leader Qinglong chosen him?
“You will know who I am with your left eye of the Divine God of Battle.” Sacred Leader Qinglong burst out laughing all of a sudden, as his aura weakened tremendously. His face was completely filled with wrinkles as his flesh wilted like that of a dying old man.
“Sacred Leader!”
Qin Nan was shocked. He could easily sense that Sacred Leader Qinglong’s life force was dissipating.
“Don’t worry about it. If you want to know the answer, use your left eye of the Divine God of Battle.” Sacred Leader Qinglong waved his hand. Despite his extremely weak aura, his figure stood firmly like an immovable pillar.
“But…”
Qin Nan instinctively shook his head.
His Tribulation had been shattered by the Death Emperor, thus his cultivation was crippled. He could not even lift up a saber, let alone use his left eye of the Divine God of Battle.
However, Qin Nan somehow opened his left eye wide and glanced toward Sacred Leader Qinglong’s figure.
Following this, countless rays of light were emitted from his left eye onto Sacred Leader Qinglong’s figure. He no longer had the appearance of a human, but an arm instead.
The arm was exceedingly mysterious. Its surface was covered in endless runes while a destructive aura could be felt from it.
“This is——”
Qin Nan’s eyes widened.
He was incredibly familiar with the aura, as it was the same aura that the left eye of the Divine God of Battle emitted—it was the aura of the Divine God of Battle.
That means...
Sacred Leader Qinglong was actually the transfiguration of the arm of the Divine God of Battle?!
“That’s right, I’m the left arm of the Divine God of Battle.” A faint smile appeared on Sacred Leader Qinglong’s face.
BANG!
Qin Nan’s mind was filled with roars of thunder!
The left arm of the Divine God of Battle!
