The entire palace was illuminated by the light.

Qin Nan’s heart shuddered as he raised his head.

Several streams of the force of the Heavens and Earth appeared from nowhere and gathered above him, taking the shape of sinister-looking demons, zombies, skeletons, etc. and charging in his direction.

What was going on?

The thoughts crossed Qin Nan’s mind as he unleashed the Destruction Martial Tree and suppressed the area. Every single demonic being was shattered into pieces when they got closer.

“Give it all you have, I know about your nine Martial Trees. Use all of your strength to finish the character. Once you’ve done it, I’ll give you a great reward!” The yellow-clothed corpse groaned.

Qin Nan’s eyes flickered, as he did not expect the Desolated Battle Spirit to know about his nine Martial Trees.

It seemed like the Desolated Battle Spirit was well aware of everything that had taken place at the Desolated Battle Ground.

However, Qin Nan did not sense any danger. After all, if the Desolated Battle Spirit was trying to harm him, there was no way he could stand against it with his current strength.

“Alright!”

After a slight hesitation, Qin Nan nodded in agreement.

He was eager to see what sorcery the character contained as well!

“Martial Trees unleashed!”

Qin Nan uttered a roar. The remaining eight Divine Battle Trees emerged into the sky from his back, unleashing a shocking battle intent that shook the entire palace.

The Desolated Battle Spirit behind him nodded slightly.

Although it was aware of their existence, the impact it received from witnessing them with its own eyes was remarkable.

This caused it to feel extremely excited. Could this young man actually finish the character?

“Break!”

Qin Nan gathered the force of his nine Martial Trees as he dragged the saber across.

Despite the exceedingly slow pace, the tip of his saber was moving.

Time gradually passed.

Each time the tip of his saber moved, the force of Heavens and Earth above him became stronger. Luckily, the strength of the nine Martial Trees was able to resist it.

“Just a final bit left!

“Just the last bit!”

Qin Nan’s heart began to roar as his will was clenched into a string.

However, no matter how hard he tried, the Heaven-Shattering Saber was unable to complete the final stroke.

The Desolated Battle Spirit knew it had come down to the final stand upon witnessing this, thus it could not help but clench its fists.

Finally, the period it took an incense stick to burn later…

BANG!

A shocking repulsion force was emitted from the pitch-black boulder, which knocked the Heaven-Shattering Saber flying from Qin Nan’s hand, causing his eyes to widen. He immediately raised his left arm and held it in front of his chest. Following a loud crash, his figure was sent flying.

The half-completed character that he had carved so far swiftly disappeared. The force of the Heavens and Earth vanished as well as if it were a breeze, as the place returned to calm.

The character was still unable to be completed!

“Still not there yet, huh…” The Desolated Battle Spirit let out a sigh.

“Senior, I’m sorry. I failed to write the word.” Qin Nan rose from the ground and withdrew his nine Martial Trees, before he said with a wry smile.

He never thought the character would be so difficult to write.

“It’s not your fault.” The Desolated Battle Spirit said while shaking his head, “You have nine Martial Trees, already surpassing the rules of cultivation, not to mention the godly saber you’ve found, and the rest of the secrets inside your body. You’re surely the most extraordinary genius I’ve ever seen, but the character is too difficult, too difficult!”

“Senior, can I please ask, what does the character ‘Immortal’ represent?” Qin Nan asked in a probing manner.

“Hehe, nothing much really, but it does mean our chance has arrived if someone were able to write it! Without it means no one could ever achieve immortality in this world—the world has no immortal!”

The Desolated Battle Spirit spoke in a heavy tone.

It raised its head and stared upward into the sky as if its eyes were able to peek through the ceiling.

“Kid, do you know, this world is a cage, trapping all of us within it! What a pity, even that woman eight thousand years ago was unable to break it!”

Qin Nan’s figure shuddered as his heart was filled with ripples.

He had once again heard someone mentioning the woman from eight thousand years ago.

Who was she?

Besides, when Qin Nan heard that the world was a cage, it felt like something inside him had been provoked.

What did ‘the world has no immortal’ mean?

What was the significance of the world’s cage?

The Desolated Battle Spirit turned around as it calmed its emotion and said with a smile, “Peak Leader Qin Nan from the Dragon Emperor Clan, right? I’m delighted to see a genius like you. I hope you’re still alive when I’ve fulfilled my cultivation.”

Qin Nan was startled, not knowing how to respond.

“Take this, a token of appreciation for you and the boulder outside. I might ask for your help again one day.” As the Desolated Battle Spirit waved its hand, a jade jar fell into Qin Nan’s hand. Inside the jade jar was a droplet that emitted the moon’s glow.

Qin Nan quickly glimpsed at it and failed to discover anything special about it.

“You may leave now.” The Desolated Battle Spirit said. Before Qin Nan could react, a strange force encapsulated his figure and teleported him away.

However, Qin Nan did not notice the red string on his hand emitting a faint glow as he was being teleported away.

The palace fell silent as Qin Nan left.

The glow inside the eyes of the Desolated Battle Spirit slowly dissipated while it walked toward the coffin like a puppet.

“Why did you ask him to write the character?” At that instant, an icy female voice appeared.

The Desolated Battle Spirit halted its movement with a stunned expression. It quickly recovered and said with a smile, “Seems like I made the right guess, your Tribulation of Three Lifetimes is really on that kid.”

“Answer me.” The female voice was imperious as usual.

“It’s rare seeing a genius who has surpassed the rules of cultivation like you did, so I thought I would let him try.” The Desolated Battle Spirit said.

“I know all about your plan and your thoughts, but now is still not the time to write the character, and your cultivation is not there yet, so everything will still be in vain.” The female voice said in a cold tone, “Wait another ten years, I’ll return to Canglan, and you will have your last chance!”

“Ten years?”

The flicker inside the eyes of the Desolated Battle Spirit trembled.

“HAHA, only ten years left? Don’t you worry, I’ll surely be prepared within ten years! I made the wrong choice eight thousand years ago. I will make sure I won’t make the same mistake again! Fei Yue, don’t you worry…”

The Desolated Battle Spirit’s voice gradually became softer as he spoke.

Meanwhile, the female voice did not respond.

The Desolated Battle Spirit stood there for a while before shaking its head helplessly. It lay inside the coffin and closed its eyes.
