Chapter 1255: Four Devil Nests

Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire

Qin Wentian gazed at his surroundings. There were so many devil kings issuing invitations to him. This made him understand that his speed of clearing the test was just too fast, attracting the attention of these experts.

"Everyone I have to apologize. I’m a devil general of one of the islands in the Fallen Devil Region and I came here together with my king to participate in the birthday celebration." Qin Wentian clasped his hands and spoke as everyone sighed in pity. Nobody knew which devil island was he a devil general of, he had such heavenly comprehension.

"So its like this. Anyway, take this entry token." The guard waved his hand as a black light imprinted itself into the center of Qin Wentian’s brow.

"Don’t wipe it away for now, that’s the proof you passed." That guard explained. Qin Wentian nodded, as he willed it, the black light grew invisible, remaining hidden.

"Mark of darkness." The eyes of the experts nearby gleamed with sharpness. Entry tokens were separated by grades as well. The one Qin Wentian received, was the token of darkness, the highest-graded entry token there was. He would have an extremely good seat during the celebration banquet.

Qin Wentian’s silhouette flashed, standing to the side as he waited for Qi Da to exit.

Right now not far from Qin Wentian, Ye Zimo turned his gaze onto Qin Wentian as an expression of curiosity appeared in his eyes. Before this, he already assumed that he was very quick, yet he didn’t expect that there would be someone so quick to such an extent.

His figure glew forward, moving towards Qin Wentian as he spoke, "Hi, my name is Ye Zimo."

Qin Wentian glanced at him and smiled, "Qin Wentian."

"Brother Qin’s comprehension abilities are extraordinary, to think that you succeeded in comprehending one of the tyrannical devil techniques within just a few breath of time. This Thousand Art Devil Nest must be child’s play for Brother Qin." Ye Zimo laughed. "Might I be so bold to ask something? Brother Qin, is that technique extremely suitable for you, or is it purely that your comprehension abilities are so outstanding?"

"It’s only due to luck." Qin Wentian smiled. This Ye Zimo was also very polite, hence, he wasn’t cold towards him.

"Brother Qin is too humble." Ye Zimo didn’t continue asking. Such matters were secrets to individual cultivators, it was naturally not too nice to keep probing.

"There are still other devil nests in the other three directions. The more entry token you obtain, the better and more valuable your seat would be at the celebratory banquet. Brother Qin, do you want to go and try out the other three devil nests?" Ye Zimo asked.

The four devil nests were naturally used by the four sects under the devil kings who were subordinates of the devil emperor for their recruitment tests. Right now, they were being used to test the talent of those who wanted to attend the banquet.

Now, the people on the Fallen Devil Island came from all directions. Other than some of the major powers on this island, there were many elites from all over the region as well. How could they arrange the seats?

Things surely couldn’t be chaotic at the birthday celebration of the devil emperor. Hence, the seating arrangements would be determined by the devil nests, using the time they took to pass it.

"Oh, I see." Qin Wentian didn’t know about this earlier.

"Brother Qin came from another island, and maybe you are not familiar with this. Entry tokens can be separated to different grades. The highest grade is that of darkness, and the lousiest grade is just a dim light with no luster. For those, even if they join the celebration, their seats would be arranged at the outermost perimeter and can only watch from afar. And now since Brother Qin has a token of darkness, your seat would be among the frontmost. If you get more tokens of darkness from the other devil nests, your seat would be closer to the devil emperor." Ye Zimo explained.

The birthday celebration of the devil emperor was truly strict and majestic. Even for seats, they were arranged by virtue of one’s talent and strength.

"In that case, we can try them. It’s just that I still have a friend who hasn’t exited yet." Qin Wentian spoke.

"Well it just so happens that I’m very free now, I’m also preparing to head to the other devil nests. I don’t mind waiting for Brother Qin." Ye Zimo smiled. Qin Wentian nodded his head lightly.

From afar, the eyes of everyone gleamed when they stared at their backs. Ye Zimo was a ranker on the Devil Rankings and he actually took the initiative to befriend this young man. Two top geniuses standing together truly constituted a spectacular sight. It was unknown if Qin Wentian would be this quick in clearing the other devil nests or not.

Time slowly flowed by, Qi Da also exited. He didn’t take too long, in the span of time it takes for an incense stick to burn fully. This also caused a huge deal of commotion. Where would there be so many tyrannically powerful experts appearing suddenly.

Qin Wentian didn’t feel that it was strength. The Battle Saint Art Qi Da cultivated, was very similar to God’s Hand. How could this mere devil nest obstruct him?

Ye Zimo’s eyes flashed as he asked, "This brother is?"

"Qi Da." Qin Wentian introduced.

"In that case, let’s go together." Ye Zimo smiled. Most probably these two are truly generals of some other devil islands in this region. To think that the two of them were actually so powerful?

And after that, Ye Zimo discovered that Qi Da was extremely respectful to Qin Wentian, always lagging half-a-step behind him as they travelled. This was the attitude of a subordinate towards a master. Could it be that Qin Wentian was a descendant of the ruler of one of the devil islands?

Qin Wentian also learned of some information from Ye Zimo. After all, the jade slips the devilish third princess gave him only contained information about the general situation on this island. Ye Zimo knew much more stuff as he was a heaven chosen from a powerful clan as well as a ranker on the Devil Rankings.

After some time, Qin Wentian arrived at the second devil nest.

"This devil nest contains powerful formations set up by a devil king. The rules are the same as earlier." Ye Zimo stated to Qin Wentian and Qi Da.

"Mhm." Qin Wentian nodded lightly. After which, the three of them moved out, heading into the devil nest.

Upon entering, Qin Wentian felt like he just entered a whole new world. There was only him here in a devil hall, with powerful devil experts on both sides with sabers and spears launching attacks at him.

"A formation?" Qin Wentian closed his eyes as he sent his immortal sense to probe the formation.

"Formations are interlinked. Formations of the devil path and immortal path don’t really have many differences." Qin Wentian mused. A powerful law energy gushed forth from him, all boring down at a random position, ignoring the devil experts who were attacking him.

An instant later, the devil experts all crumbled into dust. The devil hall disappeared as a pathway appeared. Qin Wentian then followed the pathway and directly exited.

"Formation expert." The guard outside glanced at Qin Wentian as an astonished expression appeared on his face.

"Congratulations, are you willing to join my sect?" That guard issued an invitation.

"Sorry, I’m representing my current sect." Qin Wentian rejected. That person nodded and passed on a token of darkness to Qin Wentian.

Qin Wentian’s silhouette flashed as he waited at the side again, attracting the attention of the experts nearby again.

"Who is he? He passed so quickly?"

"Mhm, he must be a heaven chosen from an aristocrat clan specializing in formations. This is why he can pass the test so fast. I wonder if he has broken the record for being the fastest individual to pass the test."

After that, more sects and clans that specialized in formations issued invites, yet they were all rejected by Qin Wentian.

Ye Zimo and Qi Da came out at the same time. After they exited, they saw Qin Wentian quietly waiting for them.

"Did you wait for long?" Ye Zimo asked, but his state of heart wasn’t calm. If Qin Wentian’s quick speed of passing is said to be a coincidence in the Thousand Arts Devil Nest, what about this Thousand Formations Devil Nest?

"Still okay." Qin Wentian smiled.

"Let us head to the next nest then." Ye Zimo spoke. After which, they continued on their way and arrived at the third devil nest. This nest was the Thousand Puppets Devil Nest and there were many powerful puppets within. Qin Wentian barged in and once again, was the first to exit.

Ye Zimo was an extraordinary character, a ranker on the Devil Rankings. He had naturally no problems to pass this. But when he saw Qin Wentian standing calmly outside waiting for him again, he couldn’t help but to feel his heart shuddering at how easy it was for Qin Wentian.

"Brother Qin, what sort of demon are you exactly?" Ye Zimo was speechless, he didn’t know what he should say. He felt an intense sense of defeat, and even when he was facing the top few rankers on the Devil Rankings, he had never felt so defeated before.

"Ye Zimo, is this man your friend?" A young man walked over, speaking to Ye Zimo.

"Mhm." Ye Zimo glanced at this man as he nodded. This young man was also a ranker on the Devil Rankings, and was an extremely strong individual.

"It seems like your friend has some techniques to deal with the devil puppets. What a fast speed." That person laughed, "Most probably, right now he is with you, attempting all the four devil nest tests, right? I wonder how is his performance?"

"Still okay." Ye Zimo casually spoke. "Brother Qin, let’s go."

"Mhm." Qin Wentian nodded as they headed toward as the last devil nest. That young man glanced at Qin Wentian and Ye Zimo’s back as a cold smile flickered in his eyes.

"This last devil nest is known as the Thousand Battles Devil Nest, and if one wants to pass it, it depends on one’s combat prowess." Arriving at the last devil nest, Ye Zimo stated to Qin Wentian.

"Mhm." Qin Wentian nodded.

"Brother Qin be careful." Ye Zimo reminded. After which, Qin Wentian headed into the devil nest and Ye Zimo didn’t follow him in. He chose to wait outside. He wanted to see how long Qin Wentian would take.

"This devil nest is able to ascertain the cultivation base of the trial taker and manifest a supremely powerful character at the trial-taker’s level. Many people have no way to pass this, it won’t be easy." Ye Zimo mused. However at the next instant, a silhouette walked out from the exit of the devil nest. When Ye Zimo glanced over, he completely froze.

"This..."

Ye Zimo’s heart pounded. The four devil nests: Thousand Arts, Thousand Formations, Thousand Puppets, Thousand Battles. Qin Wentian came out of them all so easily?

Were there really tests in the devil nests?

The experts in the surroundings all sighed in admiration. Just like before, Qin Wentian rejected the invitations and he obtained another entry token of darkness.

All four devil entry tokens, were all tokens of darkness.

A smile appeared on Qin Wentian’s face, when he walked back, a thought surfaced in his heart, "If this is the case, my seat should be very close to the devil emperor. Hopefully, he would pay attention to me."

"Brother Ye, when are you planning to enter?" Qin Wentian smiled at Ye Zimo.

"I’m going in now, Brother Qin wait for me." Ye Zimo recovered from his daze. He cast a deep glance at Qin Wentian before walking into the devil nest.

This man was simply too crazy. He must form a tight friendship with him and maybe, through Qin Wentian, he might be able to cause the devil emperor to take note of him as well.

Ye Zimo was an expert on the Devil Rankings. He knew how difficult it would be to gain the attention of the devil emperor. But for Qin Wentian, he had a pretty high chance!
