Chapter 1693 - Astounding Formation

Time gradually passed. Five days later, Yunluo Ancient City…

The city was the capital among the twenty-three ancient cities under the Sky Taihuang Sect. Its actual form was an ancient Heaven Immortal Weapon, slightly inferior to a Dao Weapon.

Normally, only the disciples of the Sky Taihuang Sect were allowed to enter the city. However, since it was the closest city to the Realm of the Sky, it was temporarily open to the public.

After all, apart from the Supreme Daoism factions and the Peerless Rulers, many cultivators would also come to witness the grand event.

Currently, the city was crowded with cultivators, including some authorities with a mysterious background and outstanding cultivation.

“The number of people that came for the Battle of the Strongest Immortal significantly surpasses the number of people that came in the past. I’m wondering if that Qin Nan can actually become the strongest Immortal.”

A man with white hair exclaimed in a restaurant that was shrouded in a godly aura.

Many cultivators nearby shared the same thought too. Apart from the woman that showed up out of nowhere five thousand years ago, no one dared to claim themselves to be the strongest Immortal, even though there had been many talented cultivators within this period.

The Nine Heavens had yet to acknowledge anyone as the strongest Immortal since the woman.

“I doubt if Qin Nan even stands a chance. Putting aside the possibility that he was abusing some trick at the World of Yin and Yang to defeat the Peerless Geniuses, he might even trouble coming here in one piece.”

An old man whose face was covered in scars let out a hollow laugh.

Many nodded in agreement. The man might have made a name by defeating forty Peerless Geniuses, but it also meant he had offended eleven Supreme Daoism factions and the Nine Palace Golden Immortal Sect too.

Qin Nan was only a cultivator from the Secondary Lower Realm. How could he possibly resolve the situation by himself?

“Today is the last day to sign up for the battle. If Qin Nan couldn’t make it in time, he’s basically done for.”

A cultivator said calmly, but many people’s eyes flickered when they heard the words.

Everyone knew that six of the Seven Elites of Heavens and Earth had signed up to take part in the battle. It was definitely exciting to watch, yet many cultivators had come despite the distance just to witness Qin Nan’s cultivation, since he was the dark horse that suddenly caught the world’s attention.

“It’s Qin Nan! Qin Nan is here!”

A voice exclaimed in surprise all of a sudden.

The person was a peak Heaven God. He had earned a fortune at the Flowing Moon Dao City because of what Qin Nan did. As such, he was utterly grateful to the man. He even remembered the man’s face.

“What? Qin Nan is here?”

“How is it possible that the twelve Supreme Daoism factions are willing to let him go?”

The cultivators were startled. They lifted their gaze suspiciously.

A young man with blood-colored hair stepping toward them in the air above the entrance of the city. He remained calm and collected despite the attention he had gathered.

“Qin Nan! How bold of you to dare fly in our Yunluo Ancient City! How dare you not treat the Sky Taihuang Sect with respect…”

A furious roar echoed in the sky. The Wanning Moon Heaven Immortal rose into the sky from the city.

He looked infuriated on the surface, yet he was actually laughing scornfully in his heart.

Qin Nan had put him to shame at the Flowing Moon Dao City, thus he had been holding a grudge against Qin Nan since then. The man had now offended the twelve Supreme Daoism factions, thus he no longer bothered to get his revenge. He just wanted to teach Qin Nan a lesson since he was feeling quite bored.

However, his expression shifted tremendously before he could finish.

The three Immortal Emperors and the authorities of the Supreme Daoism factions following behind Qin Nan all stared at him coldly.

They were all hoping that Qin Nan would be done with the Battle of the Strongest Immortal as soon as possible instead of complicating the matter further.

“Three Peerless Rulers?”

Aren’t those people the authorities of the Supreme Daoism factions?”

“Isn’t that Meng Jiugong? He’s following Qin Nan too?”

The cultivators gasped when they saw the shocking formation. The outcome had completely exceeded their expectations.

Meanwhile, some mysterious and powerful cultivators among the crowd grinned as they came to a realization.

Qin Nan was surely impressive, he had managed to turn peril into safety.

“Wanning Moon, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and explain the rules of the battle to Qin Nan and give him the badge!”

A Supreme Elder of the Sky Taihuang Sect behind Qin Nan demanded coldly.

“Sure…”

The Wanning Moon Heaven Immortal quickly reacted. He soon speculated the reason behind the situation and said in an awkward voice, “The Battle of the Strongest Immortal will be held in the Realm of the Sky. After you received the Badge of Participation, a disciple will bring you to the Sky Immortal Mountain. You may rest for five days. The battle will take place in five days.”

He took out an ancient badge.

Qin Nan glanced at the man. He did not receive the badge. He said calmly, “Elder Wanning Moon, don’t tell me you’re still holding a grudge against me? Are you going to set me up in these five days?”

The eyes of the Immortal Emperors and the authorities of the Supreme Daoism factions immediately turned cold.

The Wanning Moon Heaven Immortal shuddered.

The gaze from the authorities alone had applied enormous pressure on him.

“Of…of course not.”

The Wanning Moon Heaven Immortal forced a smile. Even though he was a Heaven Immortal, he had no choice but to lower his head.

“That’s good to hear.”

Qin Nan nodded and received the badge.

Qiu Hong, Xu Xianzhi, and the Blood-Eye Human Immortal were not planning to participate in the battle. After all, they were familiar with Qin Nan’s strength. It was meaningless for them to compete with him.

Wan Xiao was initially thinking of taking part in the battle, but he no longer dared to. If his father knew he had become Qin Nan’s mount, the old man was surely going to skin him alive.

“Qin Nan! We have escorted you to the Sky Taihuang Sect. You have received the Badge of Participation too. Isn’t it time for you to release them?”

Heaven Immortal Wuchun and the Snow-Brow Heaven Immortal demanded. The other cultivators immediately understood why the Supreme Daoism factions did not dare to do any harm to Qin Nan.

“I did decide to release them, but you saw what happened. I’ll only release them when the battle starts.”

Qin Nan let out a calm smile. Heaven Immortal Wuchun, the Snow-Brow Heaven Immortal, and the rest of the authorities twisted their lips and glared at the Wanning Moon Heaven Immortal.

The Wanning Moon Heaven Immortal immediately wore a grim look. Qin Nan still placed the blame on him even though he had lowered his head.

“Qin Nan, don’t waste any time further. Head into the Realm of the Sky first.”

The Bliss Immortal Emperor reminded. Qin Nan immediately nodded and led the way in front of the authorities. He flew out of the city and entered the Realm of the Sky.
