Chapter 1610

Chapter 1610 - Danger Arrives

Everyone knew that Ding Tianqi had only suppressed his cultivation to the third-layer Heaven God Realm.

However, Qin Nan had lasted for a thousand breaths with only a cultivation of the peak Earth God Realm. What does it imply?

It simply meant that if both Qin Nan and Ding Tianqi had the same level of cultivation, their strength would be equal.

Or perhaps, Qin Nan was actually stronger.

"The kid, does that mean he has already achieved the Minor Success Stage of the Dao Realm?"

Many among the crowd gasped as the thought crossed their minds.

Those with a cultivation of the Heaven Immortal Realm and had mastered the Four Extremities were called Peerless Rulers.

Further up, with a certain cultivation level and mastery of the Dao Realm, they would be called Nine Heavens Supreme.

As such, the Minor Success Stage of the Dao Realm was what countless Peerless Geniuses, or even Peerless Rulers were dreaming of achieving.

If Qin Nan successfully ascended as an immortal and mastered the Dao Realm, he was surely worthy to be called an Exceptional Genius.

He would turn out to be one of the best talents in the entire Nine Heavens Immortal Realm.

Such a great talent was usually the successor of a Nine Heavens Supreme, or a core disciple of a Supreme Daoism Faction, meaning that he would have absolutely remarkable status, since he had a great chance of becoming a Nine Heavens Supreme in the future!

"Qin Nan, you've given me too many surprises today. I've lost the duel, but next time, you won't be able to win again."

Ding Tianqi collected his thoughts. He did not seem disappointed by the result at all.

However, the focus in his eyes slowly dissipated. He started heading toward his seat like a wooden puppet.

Qin Nan nodded. His battle intent had been withdrawn too.

He had to admit that in so many battles he had fought, Ding Tianqi was one of his rivals that was worthy of his respect.

Meanwhile, the hall was still completely silent.

Qin Nan broke the silence by stepping out of the barrier and brought his fists together, "Senior Wuding, can I take the saber now that I've fulfilled my end?"

The words immediately dragged the thoughts of the Heaven Immortal Realm experts back.

"HAHA, what a fine young man you are, I didn't even have a third of your strength at your age," Master Wuding burst out laughing and said, "The saber is yours now."

He no longer felt displeased.

He was utterly impressed by Qin Nan's strength.

As a matter of fact, if he knew Qin Nan was this strong, he would not hesitate to give Qin Nan the saber without even needing to hold the duel.

"Cultivator Qin Nan, that was impressive!"

"Congratulations, Cultivator Qin Nan!"

"Qin Nan..."

The experts of the other factions came to send their regards.

As the saying went, the winner was always in the right.

Now that Qin Nan had won the duel, he immediately entered the limelight. No one dared to underestimate him further. Many even went to fawn upon him.

"Cultivator Qin Nan, I didn't think you are this strong, I was worried for nothing just then."

Xu Xianzhi quickly came up to him with a blossoming smile, "I've already sent someone to investigate the saber."

Qiu Hong also came and said, "Brother Nan, don't worry, I've sent someone to investigate it too."

Qin Nan was startled, but he quickly brought his fists together to express his gratitude.

Even though Xu Xianzhi was obviously trying to befriend him by doing him favors, he was totally alone here in the Shangxingtian Small Immortal Realm. It would be difficult for him to find Tang Qingshan by himself.

He greatly appreciated the kindness from Xu Xianzhi and Qiu Hong for willing to lend him a hand.

"Please be safe!"

Qin Nan held the saber tightly. He only let go after quite some time.

"I will go into seclusion after we're done here!"

Gao Yuanxian and Zhao Lijian did not seem to be in a good mood. Meanwhile, in addition to Little Peng Emperor Wan Xiao's dark expression. e was also clenching his fists tightly.

The competitive spirit in his heart that had been asleep for a long time had been awakened.

He felt the urge to surpass Qin Nan, who was like a giant mountain to him.

"The feast will now continue," Zhao Lijian took a breath to calm his thoughts and said, "We'll proceed with the second step, all cultivators will come up and give master a toast..."

The birthday feast went on as planned.

However, due to the spectacular duel between Ding Tianqi and Qin Nan, the feast was incredibly lively.

Just like what happened during the gathering, Qin Nan had entered the limelight too.

Time gradually passed. Half an hour later, all procedures of the feast were completed.

The cultivators went on to chat and give each other toasts to make some connections.

As the feast was still going, a disciple in a blue robe arrived in a hurry and transmitted his voice to Master Wuding.

"El...elder, something has gone wrong. Both Linhe, and Yuanxun Ancient Paths are activated earlier than expected."

Linhe and Yuanxun Ancient Paths were two famous cultivation grounds in the Ten Thousand Zhang Heaven Realm. They were constructed by the South World Immortal Emperor, and were managed by Master Wuding.

Master Wuding gave the disciple a cold glance and said, "If they are accessible earlier than expected, just let the outer disciples and inner disciples take the trial earlier."

If it was not his birthday feast, he would surely scold the crap out of the disciple.

Was it really necessary to come here just to report such insignificant matters to him?

The disciple's back was soaked in cold sweat as he spoke in a trembling voice, "Besides that...el...elder, the Dao-Observing Boulder is activated earlier too."

Master Wuding was stunned.

The Dao-Observing Boulder was different than the two cultivation grounds.

It was refined by the South World Immortal Emperor, and would only activate once every year. It was able to detect the presence of an enemy within the Ten Thousand Zhang Heaven Realm.

With the help of the boulder, they were able to discover the spies that other factions had implanted in their territory.

However, it was already activated a month ago. Why was it activated again now?

"Got it, off you go."

Master Wuding waved his hand. He realized that something fishy was going on, yet he could only investigate it after the feast came to an end.

"Acknowledge!"

The disciple let out a relieved sigh as he left.

No one was aware of their conversation. The hall was still bustling with people.

Meanwhile, many factions had come up to Qin Nan and tried to recruit him after knowing that he had yet to join a faction.

"Cultivator Qin Nan, why don't you join us instead? With your talent, you will surely become a core disciple of the South World Immortal Emperor, and by then..."

Master Wuding fixed his eyes on Qin Nan too.

Buzz!

Before he could finish, the hall started to tremble.

A great pressure loomed over the crowd.

"Mm?"

The cultivators raised their heads.

"Could this be..."

Master Wuding, Zhao Lijian, and many of the Heaven Immortal Realm experts sharply noticed something.

BANG!

Suddenly, a magnificent blue glow traveled across the rift and landed on Qin Nan.
