“The aura has reappeared!”

“It’s inside this mountain range!”

“Since they are many people competing for it, why don’t we team up?”

Many voices echoed in the mountain range, causing it to become lively.

The cultivators close to the mountain range began to team up and investigate the place with various methods. After all, securing the golden-lock was only the beginning, as they would also need to hold off the other cultivators.

Meanwhile, there were also many powerful cultivators hiding in the dark.

“I’ve found Qin Nan’s location. Conceal your presence and come with me.”

Miao Shan transmitted her voice as she immediately led Liu Wei and the others deep into the mountain range.

She did not plan to get rid of the cultivators following behind them. However, she purposely took a few turns to avoid stumbling into more cultivators in the mountain range.

She was planning to orchestrate a chaotic battle, but she did not want too many people to be involved.

A moment later, they arrived at the valley.

“Such powerful forbidding formations.” Liu Wei unleashed his fiery eyes and was astounded when he scanned the place.

“Are there many of them? If that’s the case, I’ll set up the Heaven-Shrouding Serene Web to conceal the aura of this place. In the meantime, you guys will focus on breaking the formations and secure the Dragon-Shaped Golden Lock.” Miao Shan blurted out as she flipped her hand and took out a giant black web. She spread it apart, covering the valley within it, stopping its presence from being exposed.

Liu Wei and the others wasted no time as they unleashed their Martial Spirits and Martial Trees while executing several Monarch Arts attacking the forbidden formations with great power, causing the entire mountain range to tremble vigorously.

Meanwhile, the cultivators stalking Miao Shan and her crew squinted as they gathered their attention. They were like the assassins hiding in the dark, waiting to strike when the opportunity arrived.

Even though the forbidding formations of the valley were quite powerful, after being attacked continuously by Liu Wei and the others for a few hundred breaths, they began to squeak and appeared to be tumbling down.

The atmosphere inside the mountain range intensified.

The moment when Qin Nan was defeated, they would immediately become each other’s enemy.

BANG!

The forbidding formations were completely shattered, revealing the entrance of the cave!

The cultivators were startled. None of them dared to blink their eyes, as they were afraid they would miss out on some detail!

Miao Shan’s eyes flickered with excitement. Once Qin Nan was defeated and the others were busy competing against each other, she could make use of the opportunity to execute the Shadow Pagoda’s secret technique to claim the golden lock’s possession and disappear from the place.

However, at that instant, a terrifying saber glow was fired from the cave.

“Watch out!”

Liu Wei and the others were startled, who immediately took a step backward and resisted it.

“Those who are hiding behind, what are you waiting for? Attack now and defeat Qin Nan so we all have a chance to claim the golden lock!”

Miao Shan yelled.

The cultivators hiding in the woods behind Miao Shan were astounded. They did not expect Miao Shan to have known about their existence all along.

After hesitating for a moment, they immediately unleashed their auras and dashed out from the woods. There were eight of them in total, each with an outstanding cultivation. The strongest one had even achieved the peak Martial Progenitor Realm.

Since their existence was exposed, they had no chance but to defeat Qin Nan first and decide the ownership of the golden lock among themselves later.

“Quite a few people here, let’s fight!”

Qin Nan’s aura burst out from his body, causing his hair to dance wildly. The Destruction Domain was unleashed from his back, which suppressed the figures of the cultivators like a giant mountain, shattering everything that it made contact with.

“Ten Thousand Flames Descend!”

“Flicker Strike!”

The cultivators immediately attacked with their moves and artifacts while utilizing the power of their Martial Spirits, resulting in powerful attacks that aimed at Qin Nan from various directions.

Qin Nan surprisingly pushed forward instead of backing off. He somehow dodged all of the attacks with a strange movement, and while doing so he fired streams of saber intents using his right arm as a saber.

BANG BANG BANG!

A series of explosions took place!

Qin Nan’s body was protected by the Destruction Domain. His left eye allowed him to observe the incoming attacks clearly while his Unstoppable Step was an incredible movement technique. None of the attacks were able to harm him. Furthermore, the cultivators were constantly being knocked back by his slashes.

Within just a few exchanges in a few breaths’ time, Miao Shan, Liu Wei, and the others seemed to be struggling.

“This...”

Miao Shan and the others were dumbfounded.

Even if Qin Nan had not lost his cultivation, his strength was not supposed to be this outstanding.

“How impressive, as expected of the person who has received the treasure left by the Heaven-Shattering Martial Monarch, to be able to face us all on your own. That being said, are you able to face hundreds of cultivators at the same time?” Liu Wei suddenly burst out laughing as he waved his hand and burned the Heaven-Shrouding Serene Web into ashes.

“Are you out of your mind?”

Miao Shan and the rest were stunned. Even though they were competing against each other for the golden lock, there were only a little over ten of them here. They would not have any chance to claim the golden lock if the rest of the geniuses made their way there!

Liu Wei ignored her words and sprang forward with a kick.

As soon as his figure disappeared, the impact from the battle between Qin Nan and the others served as a great flame in the midst of the darkness, grabbing the attention of every cultivator in the mountain range.

“Someone’s fighting in that direction!”

“The impact is extremely powerful. It’s highly possible to be Qin Nan. Let’s go and take a look!”

Many cultivators shared the same thought.

A few auras charged straight in the direction like ferocious tigers.

In just less than three breaths’ time, at least eighteen powerful cultivators were only less than a hundred zhang away from the valley!

“So my location is completely compromised?”

Qin Nan scanned his surroundings as he immediately stepped forward.

Only half an hour was left until the time ran out and it appeared that the real battle was right at the doorstep.

“Qin Nan! It’s you!”

Two cultivators coming from the woods were overjoyed when they saw Qin Nan moving in their direction. However, the next thing they knew, a giant black domain crashed upon them, causing their faces to turn pale as they were forced to execute their moves to protect themselves. Despite that, they were still knocked flying by the impact, inflicting significant damage to them.

Qin Nan continued forward.

“Where do you think you are running to?”

A blasting yell echoed from the sky.

A bald man holding a halberd thrust it in Qin Nan’s direction.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh...

Meanwhile, several piercing sounds could be heard coming from the woods, as an icy longsword, a golden palm, and a few hundred golden leaves with icy flickers approached Qin Nan, which turned out to be three cultivators unleashing their attacks.

“Break!”

Qin Nan’s right arm exploded as it transformed into the Heaven-Shattering Saber and clashed with the halberd.

The bald man was stunned as the halberd he was proud of was shattered with brute force.

Qin Nan slashed with the saber and knocked the bald man flying.

“Qin Nan, hand over the golden lock and your life will be spared!”

At that instant, thirteen auras appeared and floated in the sky.

Furthermore, Miao Shan and the rest of the geniuses had finally caught up as well.

Qin Nan was surrounded by twenty-seven cultivators!

“HAHA, you want the golden lock? Come and take it then!”

Qin Nan let out a laugh as he sprang into the sky and slashed with the saber in his hand.

At that moment, there was only the time it took an incense stick to burn left to reach the fifth hour!
