Chapter 1459 - The Battle Tribe"s Secret

As the Seven Luminaries Flying Sword was flying toward the Battle Tribe, Qin Nan spent some time learning about the Battle Tribe.

The Battle Tribe was one of the Eight Ancient Tribes in the Canglan Continent.

An ancient tribe referred to people who were blessed with some unique bloodline the moment they were born, allowing them to cultivate at a greater pace compared to other cultivators. On top of that, they could also learn some unique secret techniques related to their bloodline.

The Battle Tribe was different from the other seven ancient tribes. Their ancestor had used some ancient art to acquire the bloodline and continued to pa.s.s it down to his descendants. The tribe had risen after the seven ancient tribes.

As such, even though the Battle Tribe was fairly powerful, the other ancient tribes did not approve its existence.

"The history of the Canglan Continent dates back to over thirty thousand years ago. The Battle Tribe has already existed before the Monarch Ranking and G.o.d Ranking showed up. If their mysterious ancestor is somehow related to the Divine G.o.d of Battle..."

Qin Nan fell into deep thoughts. Does this mean that the Divine G.o.d of Battle has already appeared in the Canglan Continent around twenty thousand years ago?

Time gradually pa.s.sed. Three days later, the Seven Luminaries Flying Sword arrived at the Battle Tribe.

However, it did not there, but flew deeper into the Battle Tribe, to a forbidden ground where the ordinary tribesmen were prohibited to enter.

Whoos.h.!.+

Qin Nan and the Sword Spirit Seven Luminaries landed on the ground.

At that instant, several gazes in front were fixed on them.

Qin Nan immediately raised his head and learned he was in a s.p.a.cious hall. The surroundings walls were hung with ancient drawings that changed continuously. Wisps of formidable battle intent swarmed the place out of nowhere, making Qin Nan feel slightly at ease.

In the hall, the person sitting in the middle was the current chief of the Battle Tribe, Martial G.o.d Zhanyuan, who had achieved the peak Martial G.o.d Realm.

On his sides were a black-haired old man with a straight face and a middle-aged man whose figure was circled with wisps of faint blue auras. His eyes were slightly squinted. These were two experts of the Battle Tribe, Martial G.o.d Zhanhuang and Martial G.o.d Guli.

In front of them were eighteen Martial G.o.ds and thirty-two Martial Monarchs, who were the authorities of the Battle Tribe.

In addition to that, Qin Nan saw two familiar faces, who were none other than the Young Master of the Battle Tribe, Zhan Baw.a.n.g and Zhan Xiaoxian.

"Alliance Leader Qin, welcome to the Battle Tribe."

Martial G.o.d Zhanyuan rose to his feet and brought his fists together peacefully.

"That"s too great of a greet for me."

Qin Nan immediately returned the favor. He brought his fists together at the crowd, "I"m Qin Nan. It"s an honor to meet every senior here."

Martial G.o.d Zhanhuang slightly nodded with a smile. Martial G.o.d Guli remained silent with a pair of squinted eyes.

The rest of the Martial G.o.ds and Martial Monarchs greeted back in astonishment.

Every time they met Qin Nan in the past, he was either butchering Martial Monarchs or fighting with Martial G.o.ds. They initially thought Qin Nan was a reckless, imperious man, yet they never thought he would be so calm and peaceful.

"Brother Qin Nan..."

Zhan Xiaoxian slightly blushed and waved her hand.

There were too many authorities present in the hall. Her father only had an insignificant status among them, thus she felt slightly embarra.s.sed to greet Qin Nan in front of the crowd.

"Xiaoxian, it"s been a while."

Qin Nan smiled. He had a good impression of Zhan Xiaoxian"s character.

"Xiaoxian is still too naive, thanks for looking after her, Brother Qin."

Zhan Baw.a.n.g rose to his feet and brought his fists together in a respectful manner. He had witnessed how Qin Nan defeat Sheng Tianjing and the others and achieve the Martial Monarch Realm by himself. He clearly remembered as if it had only happened the day before.

"Chief, should we get down to business? Our Battle Tribe is holding such a huge gathering and even swore oaths for it. We shouldn"t waste our time further."

Martial G.o.d Guli spoke all of a sudden. It seemed like he had something important to attend to, thus he was unwilling to waste his time.

"Alliance Leader Qin Nan, we"ll chat later. We"ve invited you here as we wish you can give us some answers."

Martial G.o.d Zhanyuan nodded and looked at Qin Nan, "As everyone knew, our Battle Tribe has only become an ancient tribe because our ancestor has activated a primordial art to acquire the bloodline."

"However, that was not the truth. The bloodline was acquired from an ancient, sacred corpse that our ancestor had found coincidentally. He had relied on the power of the corpse to acquire the bloodline."

Qin Nan was startled.

An ancient, sacred corpse?

The remaining body parts of the Divine G.o.d of Battle was located deep inside the South-Heaven Gate.

"Since the birth of our Battle Tribe, our ancestor had pa.s.sed down a rule. If someone who is approved by the sacred corpse appeared, the entire Battle Tribe must provide the person with full a.s.sistance. Those who disobey it is a betrayer of the tribe."

Martial G.o.d Zhanyuan continued with a stern look, "In the past, the sacred corpse has never shown any reaction. However, it began to emit a blue glow the moment you achieved the Martial Monarch Realm by yourself."

Hearing this, the Martial G.o.ds and Martial Monarchs of the Battle Tribe immediately wore a stern look. Their eyes glittered.

Although the rule had existed for more than ten thousand years, they still had mixed feelings when the moment finally arrived.

"Seriously?"

The Sword Spirit Seven Luminaries was astounded.

Even Qin Nan was taken by surprise.

If he was really the one, wouldn"t that mean he had received the support of an ancient tribe out of nowhere?

"Cultivator Qin Nan, our tribe has strictly obeyed the rules pa.s.sed down by our ancestor. Besides, you"re one of the greatest talents the world has ever seen. If you"ve really earned the sacred corpse"s approval, the Battle Tribe will provide you with full a.s.sistance."

Martial G.o.d Zhanhuang said sternly.

"Seniors, it"s indeed quite shocking and serious. Shall we discuss later, can you show me the sacred..."

Qin Nan was not too excited. Anyone else would have a hard time accepting it after being told about it all of a sudden.

In comparison, he was more curious about the sacred corpse.

If it had emitted a blue glow when he achieved the Martial Monarch Realm, it must somehow be related to the Divine G.o.d of Battle. However, how exactly was it related?

"I"ve something to say."

Before Qin Nan could finish, Martial G.o.d Guli interrupted, "In my opinion, it doesn"t matter if Qin Nan is the one that the sacred corpse has approved. There"s no way our Battle Tribe would provide a cultivator we"re not familiar of full a.s.sistance out of nowhere."

Martial G.o.d Zhanyuan did not speak further. However, Martial G.o.d Zhanhuang"s eyes flickered coldly.

Qin Nan nodded. He did agree with Martial G.o.d Guli"s words.

"Honestly speaking, I won"t have any problem supporting other geniuses. But, there"s no way we can support Qin Nan."

Martial G.o.d Guli glanced at Zhanhuang and said blatantly, "Supporting Qin Nan means bringing the whole Battle Tribe to die with him."
