The woman made her move immediately. She raised her hand and flicked her finger. A terrifying glow instantly fired forward, colliding with the South-Heaven Gate, resulting in a deafening explosion.

The magnificent, imperious South-Heaven Gate was knocked backward by the force. The blue rays it was emitting completely shattered and the center of the gate had cracks spreading to the edge.

"Break!"

The woman did not stop attacking. She executed another blow, which shattered the South-Heaven Gate into pieces. They turned into blue rays that surged in all directions.

"HAHAHA, as expected of Senior Fei Yue, leave those two to me!"

The mysterious young man of the Martial Serendipity Pavilion burst into laughter. He raised his hands and fired dark red chains from his palms, which charged at the spirit of the Monarch Ranking and the spirit of the God Ranking like ancient evil dragons.

Even though the spirit of the Monarch Ranking and the spirit of the God Ranking reacted quickly, they still could not escape from the chains. They were locked down by the chains, which emitted a crimson glow and shattered the spirit of the Monarch Ranking and the spirit of the God Ranking into pieces.

"So the rumors are true; the spirit of the Monarch Ranking, the spirit of the God Ranking, and the South-Heaven Gate this time were only streams of their wills they’ve lodged within the Heavens and Earth. They would appear when someone tries to achieve the Martial Monarch Realm on their own."

"Such a strong precaution. Even if someone else managed to find a way to achieve the Martial Monarch Realm by themselves, without enough protection, they would still be killed."

The young man of the Martial Serendipity Pavilion spoke with a grim laugh.

The five Martial Gods and the thirty-six Martial Monarchs immediately came to a realization.

No wonder the spirit of the Monarch Ranking, the spirit of the God Ranking, and the South-Heaven Gate were not as strong as they thought.

"Qin Nan awakened their wills, so they must have sensed it too. Go and seal off the Heavenly Fortune for Qin Nan."

The woman said coldly before she disappeared back into the copper mirror.

As a matter of fact, the Martial Serendipity Pavilion alone was enough to guarantee Qin Nan's safety. However, she could not resist the murderous intent when she saw the South-Heaven Gate.

"Definitely. Cultivator Disaster, please lend me a hand."

The young man of the Martial Serendipity Pavilion shrugged and glanced deep into the rift.

"So this is what you'd arranged all along… Your eyes are rather sharp."

The Disaster Martial God spoke with a hoarse voice with a hint of admiration. Following this, streams of disastrous aura appeared and shrouded the Martial Monarchs’ Tomb.

"HAHA, of course."

The mysterious young man of the Martial Serendipity Pavilion burst out laughing. He performed a hand seal and summoned mystical glowing runes. They disappeared into the air above, sealing the presence of the Martial Monarchs’ Tomb.

Meanwhile, the five Martial Gods and the thirty-six Martial Monarchs were still immersed in great shock.

They never thought the Martial Serendipity Pavilion would be protecting Qin Nan and that he would be the senior’s Tribulation of Three Lifetimes.

"Does that mean..."

The eyes of the five Martial Gods and the thirty-six Martial Monarchs glistened as they recalled something. They placed their gazes onto Qin Nan.

A law-defying genius who could achieve the Martial Monarch Realm on his own, protected by the Martial Serendipity Pavilion and who was also the Tribulation of Three Lifetimes of the senior. What would he grow into in the future?

Or maybe, the situation that had been the same for fifteen thousand years would finally have a change?

Meanwhile, Qin Nan had his full attention on his heart. He was clueless about the thoughts of the copper mirror, the Martial Serendipity Pavilion, the Martial Gods, and the Martial Monarchs.

"Refine!"

Qin Nan took a hold of the opportunity and uttered a groan while unleashing his will.

The Destruction Dao Pattern of the Divine God of Battle which had flown into his body immediately let out a roar like a dragon. It circulated in his meridians, before flying toward the heart to magically merge with it.

At that instant, a terrifying monarch aura burst out from Qin Nan's body.

...Meanwhile, somewhere mysterious in the Middle Continent of the Canglan Continent...

Inside a wooden compound, a white-haired old man was staring at the chessboard with black and white glowing pieces with a frown.

Suddenly, following a loud crash, the chessboard broke in half.

"Is that..."

The white-haired old man was stunned. He closed his eyes and pondered. His face turned pale as he realized something.

Someone was trying to achieving the Martial Monarch Realm on their own?

Furthermore, the will that he had lodged into the Heavens and Earth had been erased?

In other words, not only would the person succeed, but someone extremely powerful was also protecting him!

"Are you aware of it too?"

An emotionless voice appeared. It was the spirit of the God Ranking.

"Brother, they even sealed off the Heavenly Fortune, stopping us from knowing the truth. Could it be the South-Heaven Gate?"

The white-haired old man said with a long face.

"Someone has achieved the Martial Monarch Realm on their own. The South-Heaven Gate shouldn't have that capability and it wouldn't try either. In my opinion, it's that person supporting the South-Heaven Gate. He must be coming for us."

The spirit of the God Ranking said calmly.

"Then what should we do?"

The white-haired old man immediately asked.

"We'll alter the rules of Heavens and Earth first, so they won't be able to trigger the Tribulation. Their identities will be exposed in time and we'll sort out how to deal with them."

The spirit of the God Ranking said.

"Got it!"

Meanwhile, somewhere in the southernmost part of the half-God region...

A magnificent, imperious gate stood firmly as if it had joined the Heavens and the Netherworld, suppressing the entire continent.

Suddenly, the gate emitted an ancient, magical glow.

"Achieving the Martial Monarch Realm by oneself, under the protection of someone powerful, sealing the Heavenly Fortune, who could it be?"

The voice sounded rather furious. It belonged to the South-Heaven Gate's Spirit.

"It must be the Monarch Ranking and the God Ranking. You should alter the rules of cultivation first, to stop them from triggering the Tribulation."

An ancient voice said from inside the South-Heaven Gate.

"So be it."

The South-Heaven Gate's Spirit spoke after a moment of silence. Following that, the magnificent gate emitted a blinding glow, causing the place to tremble. The Heavens and Earth underwent a shocking change.

However, when the South-Heaven Gate, the God Ranking, and the Monarch Ranking were making their moves, no one would have thought that the person was a three-starred enemy to the former and a chess piece that had lost its value to the latter two. He was deemed futureless by them—the one and only Qin Nan!
