Chapter 1368 - Young Man in the Blue Robe
"That"s great!"
Xiao Yunjue, Meng Langxie, and Wan Fenghun were filled with joy as they collected their thoughts.
In the end, they had only managed to collect just over two hundred Sky-Severing Dragon Claws. They had no chance of becoming the successor of the Dao Origin Heavenly Mountain.
However, now that they were allowed to trade the Sky-Severing Dragon Claws with one another, they would surely be able to collect three hundred and thirty Sky-Severing Dragon Claws.
"Isn"t that master of the Dao Origin Heavenly Mountain an a.s.shole? Why didn"t he mention this rule before!"
Little Worm wore an unpleasant look.
If he knew they were allowed to trade for the dragon claws, why would he bother using the two secret arts to search for them?
Couldn"t he simply buy them in the end?
"Senior Canming, doesn"t that mean there will be more than one person with three hundred and thirty Sky-Severing Dragon Claws in the end? How are we going to decide who the successor is?"
Qin Nan brought his fists together and asked.
Xiao Yunjue, Wan Fenghun, Meng Langxie, and a few others also shared the same thought too.
Obviously, they were inclined to ask the same question.
"I don"t know how they are going to decide the successor in the end, but I can tell you two things.
"First, those who have three hundred and thirty Sky-Severing Dragon Claws will have an advantage.
"Second, three hundred and thirty is all you need. It won"t be decided by looking at who has the most Sky-Severing Dragon Claws."
Old Man Canming glanced at Qin Nan calmly and said.
"I see, that"s fine then."
Qin Nan nodded slightly.
Even though it was quite sudden for the master of the Dao Origin Heavenly Mountain to change the rules, thus giving him a slight disadvantage, there must be a reason why the rules had to be changed.
"That"s all I have to say. I"ll leave the rest to you."
Old Man Canming spoke once again. He proceeded to the edge of the dojo with a flicker and closed his eyes as if he had fallen asleep.
"Everyone, I guess I don"t have to introduce myself. I hope that you would be willing to sell the extra Sky-Severing Dragon Claws you have to me. I will not disappoint you."
"Everyone..."
Xiao Yunjue, Wan Fenghun, and Meng Langxie stepped forward simultaneously, followed by other Martial Monarchs.
Meanwhile, many Martial Progenitors began to trade for the Sky-Severing Dragon Claws too, as they did not have enough to enter the Skyless Dojo yet.
The whole dojo became incredibly lively.
"Hehe, Qin Nan, time for some treasure hunting."
Little Worm waved his tail and flew forward with a grin.
"Hey, Master Ao, wait for me..."
Sima Kong collected his thoughts and went after the dragon.
"Qin Nan, where did you find that weird-looking worm?"
Princess Miao Miao"s eyes flickered while looking at Little Worm"s leaving figure.
The Little Worm"s bloodline seemed fairly outstanding. Should she tie him up and give him to the Dao Origin Heavenly Mountain as a gift?
"That"s Ao Que, he"s a dragon but he was severely injured, so he"s following me for now. By the way, Princess, Senior Brother, Brother Yang, do you all have enough Sky-Severing Dragon Claws?"
Qin Nan immediately asked as a thought crossed his mind.
"We have enough dragon claws. If you need, we can give some to you too."
The three shook their heads.
Even though the chance of becoming the successor of the Dao Origin Heavenly Mountain was quite alluring, each of them had found one of the twelve Tianba Hidden Treasure that was quite fascinating too, thus there was no need for them to compete further.
"Qin Nan, what are you waiting for? Time for us to get ourselves some treasure."
Princess Miao Miao rolled her eyes and said with a pleasant voice.
"Sure thing."
Qin Nan responded and followed the Princess.
"I didn"t realize this before, but somehow, this Qin Nan feels rather familiar? The feeling is actually coming from my battle blood..."
Zhan Baw.a.n.g glanced at Qin Nan with a slight frown.
After a slight ponder, he made up his mind and went after Qin Nan.
For the rest of the time, Xiao Yunjue, Wan Fenghun, Meng Langxie, and the others proceeded to loot the treasure after trading the Sky-Severing Dragon Claws.
Some of the raw materials around them were so rare that even their factions did not have them.
Time gradually pa.s.sed. An hour later...
"Fellow cultivators, I"m sorry for coming late."
An imperious voice suddenly appeared on the blue dojo.
The entire s.p.a.ce shuddered slightly at that instant and became brighter.
"Did the master of the Dao Origin Heavenly Mountain arrive?"
Qin Nan, Princess Miao Miao, Tang Qingshan, and the rest of the geniuses, authorities, and rogue cultivators turned toward the voice in astonishment.
A figure had suddenly appeared on the blue dojo.
The figure was a short-haired young man in a blue robe. On his shoulder sat a golden bird the size of a palm. His body was not unleas.h.i.+ng any aura.
Compared to the Magical Hair Sword G.o.d and the Martial Serendipity Pavilion, the master of the Dao Origin Heavenly Mountain seemed quite friendly, like an ordinary young master of a renowned clan.
"Greetings, master of the Dao Origin Heavenly Mountain."
The authorities from various factions were the first to react, who brought their fists together respectfully.
Regardless of how friendly the master of the Dao Origin Heavenly Mountain was, he was one of the greatest authorities of the Canglan Continent, someone who could decide the life and death of countless people by flicking his fingers and stir great chaos in the entire Canglan Continent with a single move.
"Everyone is being too polite. Let"s get down to business right away.
"Before I choose the successor and open the Skyless Dojo, those who have secured the twelve Tianba Hidden Treasures and thirty-six Disha Hidden Treasures, please step forward to accept them.
"However, keep in mind that once you accept these successions, you won"t be able to become my successor."
The master of the Dao Origin Heavenly Mountain observed the dojo and said with a calm smile.
"Tianba and Disha Hidden Treasures?"
Many cultivators were startled.
They were entirely clueless about the other successions in the Dao Origin Heavenly Mountain.
"Greetings, senior."
Princess Miao Miao, Tang Qingshan, Gong Yang, Ling Po, Si Zhaoxue, and several other geniuses and authorities stepped forward, twenty of them in total.
"Those who didn"t step forward, I"m a.s.suming that you"ve given up on the succession."
The master of the Dao Origin Heavenly Mountain"s eyes swept across Zang Xuanyun and the others quickly and flicked his fingers forward.
BANG!
A series of deafening explosions took place as several blue altars each three zhang tall and ten zhang wide came out from the rift.
Every altar was emitting a mystical aura.
"Qin Nan, as the man whom I have chosen, you must secure the succession. Otherwise, I"ll surely teach you a lesson."
Princess Miao Miao waved her fist at Qin Nan and proceeded toward one of the altars.
Tang Qingshan and the others proceeded to their respective altars.
Magical glows began to emit from the altars.
"Since we"ve decided who the successors of the Tianba and Disha Hidden Treasures are, it"s time to pick my successor."
The master of the Dao Origin Heavenly Mountain slowly withdrew his smile.
The atmosphere of the place instantly intensified.
