Chapter 992: Chapter 994 – The Revolutionary Era

“Mm? Who are you?” The voice of an old man echoed in the sky.

“Be gone!”

Following a loud roar, a bright yellow beam surged downward like a yellow ocean, knocking the giant hand back into the rift.

“As I thought…”

The illusionary figure that had fought with Qin Nan blurted out after collecting his thoughts. Before he could finish, he was shattered by the impact.

The figure of the Saber Monarch vanished too. Half of the force inside the talisman had been consumed.

The desert became calm once again, as the wind blew the sand into the air.

“Senior! What just happened?”

Qin Nan put the talisman away. Although he could speculate something from the situation, he was clueless about its actual meaning.

“Come, let’s leave this place first.”

The voice of the mysterious young man in the Martial Serendipity Pavilion said, as a glow encapsulated Qin Nan’s figure, bringing him into the pavilion.

“Senior…and Madam Heavenly Fortune?”

As soon as Qin Nan arrived, he saw Madam Heavenly Fortune sitting beside the mysterious young man.

“HAHA, kid, it’s been a while.” Madam Heavenly Fortune chuckled. Her voice was as hoarse as usual.

“Let’s get down to business first. Qin Nan, tell us what happened.” The mysterious young man said with a solemn expression.

Qin Nan immediately told them how he had found the pagoda and the feeling he had sensed.

“It’s probably set up by the Yin and Yang Taoist. Only those who had have surpassed the rules of cultivation are able to sense the presence of the pagoda.” Madam Heavenly Fortune said, “That old man is still as cunning as usual.”

“Yin and Yang Taoist?” Qin Nan frowned, “Seniors, I saw the figure inside the pagoda possessed two Martial Spirits, is he…”

“Yeah, he’s a genius on the God Ranking, one that has surpassed the rules of cultivation.” The mysterious young man raised his head.

“A genius on the God Ranking?” Qin Nan squinted.

Since he had arrived at the Middle Continent and broken the rules of cultivation, he had yet to meet a worthy opponent. Even Shi Qingfan, Sage Chen Zilai, and Sorceress Qian Qian had not surpassed the rules of cultivation.

To his surprise, a genius on the God Ranking had done it.

“Mm, times have changed. In our era, it was shocking enough to achieve the personal Martial Progenitor Realm, as only less than thirty people in the entire continent could reach that far. I believe only the senior eight thousand years ago had surpassed the rules of cultivation in the past.”

The mysterious young man added, “Now, more geniuses have arisen in the Canglan Continent. As such, in this ninth era, there are others who had surpassed the rules of cultivation, just like you.”

Qin Nan remained silent. The Martial Serendipity Pavilion was right.

As times changed, it was reasonable for the cultivation of the Canglan Continent to become prosperous as long as it did not suffer any severe calamity.

Madam Heavenly Fortune continued the topic, “Kid, in the half-God region, the Godly Exterminator Monolith in the Godly Exterminator Forbidden Area was shattered. The successor of the Lost Herb Garden has appeared. Lately, there has been news about the successions of the Nine Words Martial God and the Calamity Martial God too. Besides, each of the three great factions in the half-God region now has a genius who has surpassed the rules of cultivation!”

“Each of the three great factions?”

Qin Nan was astounded.

In other words, there were now four cultivators who had surpassed the rules of cultivation including himself!

“Mm, they should not be underestimated. Even the one who fought you today, he is currently in seclusion at the South-Heaven Sacred Ground. It will probably take him around ten years to come out of seclusion.” The mysterious young man said.

“He’s from the South-Heaven Sacred Ground?” Qin Nan was started, before he asked, “Senior, what’s his name?”

“I won’t tell you everything about him, but I can tell you one thing—he now has three Martial Spirits.” The young man let out a smile.

“Three Martial Spirits?”

Qin Nan could not help but take a deep breath.

If all three of the Martial Spirits were tenth-grade Tian rank, that would be utterly terrifying. A single tenth-grade Tian ranked Martial Spirit was already powerful enough, let alone the strength of three Martial Spirits combined.

“Senior, I would like to know his name and background.”

As Qin Nan collected his thoughts, his eyes flickered.

“Kid, it won’t make any difference if you know his name now. I believe you will meet him in the near future.” Madam Heavenly Fortune spoke with a hoarse voice.

“In the near future?”

Qin Nan’s eyes squinted.

“Qin Nan, it’s an entirely new era. Even I’m unsure what the future will hold. What happened today is a warning for you,;you have to be prepared. I’m afraid your existence will soon be exposed!” The gaze of the mysterious young man sharpened.

“Senior, don’t worry. I understand.”

Qin Nan closed his eyes and inhaled deeply. The smile on his face disappeared.

“Mm, you may leave now.” The mysterious young man waved his hand, causing a force to encapsulate Qin Nan’s figure and teleport him out.

“Hehe, what great trouble. If his secret is exposed, the South-Heaven Sacred Ground, the Yin and Yang Taoist, the Seven Great Forbidden Areas will be setting their eyes on him. I believe that your Martial Serendipity Pavilion is not enough to protect him…” Madam Heavenly Fortune said with a hint of gloating.

“You’re wrong, Senior Monarch Ranking and God Ranking are fond of him too.” The mysterious young man replied.

“Hehe, the Monarch Ranking and God Ranking, what could they possibly do? If they strike, Canglan would strike too.” Madam Heavenly Fortunate said indifferently.

The mysterious young man fell silent.

Was that a red string on Qin Nan’s wrist he had seen?

Madam Heavenly Fortune asked as she recalled something, “What do you think Qin Nan had on his mind? Knowing that the geniuses in the half-God region have surpassed the rules of cultivation just like him. Maybe it would greatly influence his mindset.”

“Now that you’ve mentioned it, I’m having a headache about exactly that.”

The mysterious young man said with a frown, “Didn’t you realize that Qin Nan was getting excited after the initial astonishment…”

“Excited?” Madam Heavenly Fortune stared with her eyes open wide.

“Do you know how it feels like being undefeatable? What follows it is an endless sense of loneliness. Even so, everyone still desires to be undefeatable. It makes sense for Qin Nan to be excited, because he has found his true rivals.”

The mysterious young man glanced into the sky.

A new era had begun. He could no longer interfere with Qin Nan’s path. He had to make his own decisions now.
