Chapter 2330: Soul of the Peerless Dragon, Part One
Qin Nan"s eyes glittered.
The Land of Sunken Dragons was perfect for him.
"Sure, please bring me there," Qin Nan brought his fists together and said.
"Alright."
The Hall Leader nodded and flew into the rift.
The cultivators on the Dragon Island were jealous of Qin Nan, but they had no reason to stay any longer. They proceeded to leave the island.
Not long after, a piece of news started spreading in the Fifth Small Immortal Realm.
"Hey, did you hear? A peak Master of Dao called Lin Xiaozhi has found the Four-Way Dragon Pattern!"
"Of course I did! He immediately asked Heaven Highness Dragon Island to kill Huangpu Shaoqi, the son of the Curved Swords" Vice Patriarch, Heaven Highness Sword River! Apparently, Heaven Highness Sword River even showed up and asked them to spare his son"s life, but to no avail."
"Oh my, he dares to go so far when he can only ask Heaven Highness Dragon Island for three favors? Isn"t that a little reckless?"
"Who knows, have you heard where did he find the Four-Way Dragon Pattern? It was inside the treasure vault of the Red Dragon City"s lord!"
"Holy c.r.a.p, wouldn"t the Red Dragon City"s lord be crying by now?"
Many people had taken note of Lin Xiaozhi"s name on this particular day.
On the same day, the Curved Swords publicly declared Lin Xiaozhi was expelled from the clan for killing a disciple of his faction. Every disciple of the Curved Swords would have to kill him at first sight.
In addition to it, the Curved Swords also sent out many experts to watch over the Dragon Island closely.
If Lin Xiaozhi dared to leave the island, they would go after him immediately.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the Dragon Island...
The Hall Leader of the Heavenly Art Palace came to a stop and said, "Here is the Land of Sunken Dragons."
Qin Nan looked ahead and saw a deep abyss not far away. Golden lights were surging inside it. Ancient dragons of various colors with illusionary outlines were moving around in it while letting out cries occasionally.
Qin Nan was startled after he sensed the energy in it.
The energy inside the abyss was absolutely outstanding like a boundless sea. Even a Heaven Highness could benefit greatly from cultivating in it, let alone a Master of Dao like him.
"Did you notice the dragon souls have different numbers of claws?" the Hall Leader asked.
"Indeed. Senior, what is the difference between them?"
Qin Nan took a quick glance and saw most of the dragon souls had nine claws. Only a few had ten claws.
"Normally, the number of claws will determine the lineage of the dragon species. Those with nine claws are called G.o.d dragons, while those with ten claws are called immortal dragons. The supreme dragons have eleven claws, and the peerless dragons have twelve claws."
The Hall Leader added, "Different dragon souls contain different levels of energy. I suggest you absorb the G.o.d dragons with nine claws first. You can try absorbing the immortal dragons after you got the hang of it. Otherwise, your mind might struggle to withstand their pressure."
The Hall Leader said after a brief pause, "There is a supreme dragon asleep deep in the Land of Sunken Dragons. You can try to absorb it if you think you can take the challenge."
Despite what the Hall Leader said, he did not think Qin Nan would stand a chance against the supreme dragon.
After all, Qin Nan"s cultivation level was too low. Besides, he was only given a month. It was already impressive if he managed to absorb the immortal dragons.
"Thank you for the advice, senior," Qin Nan said.
"There"s no need to thank me. Off you go, I"ll be watching over you from up here."
Qin Nan did not waste any time after the Hall Leader sat on the ground with his legs crossed. He took a deep breath to calm his thoughts and went into the abyss.
The moment he set foot inside it, wisps of strong energy surged at him and made him feel warm.
"Art of the Immortal Demon!"
A shocking demonic will burst out of Qin Nan"s body as he absorbed the energy to refine his flesh.
"Mm? What kind of demonic art is that?" the Hall Leader"s eyes flickered with astonishment.
He could sense the demonic art was unusually powerful.
"Battle Dao Immortal Ma.n.u.script!"
Qin Nan continued to execute the Arts of Dao Seeking in the form of blinding rays.
The force he unleashed grew significantly, forming a small vortex around him.
"He is practicing thirteen Arts of Dao Seeking at the same time? Not only that, he can use them simultaneously adeptly too?" the Hall Leader was shocked.
Practicing multiple Arts of Dao Seeking was not uncommon. A lot of people always mentioned that being able to practice five Arts of Dao Seeking at the same time was a sign of achieving the extraordinary path of cultivation.
However, no one had ever achieved Qin Nan"s level.
"Impressive, he"s only a peak Master of Dao, but he has found his extraordinary path of cultivation. He"s only slightly inferior to Heaven Highness Dragon Island when he was young..."
The admiration in the Hall Leader"s eyes grew stronger. The thought had only crossed his mind when he saw the fourteenth ray emerging from Qin Nan"s back. It turned into a web and encapsulated ten of the G.o.d dragons.
"He"s able to materialize his will?"
The Hall Leader"s eyes widened.
"Tsk tsk, this young man is no ordinary person. He might have a chance to find the supreme dragon within a month," the Hall Leader said before closing his eyes.
He was initially worried whether Qin Nan was able to withstand the pressure from the dragon souls, but his worry was unnecessary.
"Such a strange power from the dragon souls!" Qin Nan exclaimed.
The energy of the dragon souls was flowing like water. It naturally combined with his will and soul to strengthen them.
"I should be able to absorb the immortal dragons right away," Qin Nan murmured.
The web that his will had materialized immediately encapsulated ten immortal dragons.
Roar!
A series of roars exploded in Qin Nan"s mind.
Shocking auras kept surging at him like fierce waves, causing his body to tremble.
"Heart-Slaying Slas.h.!.+"
Qin Nan"s gaze sharpened.
Countless saber intents were released. They wrapped around the souls of the immortal dragons and shredded them.
