Chapter 771 - Mysterious Golden Seal
“This is…”
Qin Nan was startled.
Standing beside Qin Nan, Princess Miao Miao shook her head and said, “This is the Martial Progenitor Tree. When a Martial Sacred ranks up to the Martial Progenitor Realm, a Martial Seed will be formed during the process, and as the cultivation improves, the Martial Seed will grow into a Martial Tree. However, the Patriarch’s Martial Tree is trapped by the Netherworld Chain, causing his cultivation to drop rapidly.”
Upon hearing this, Qin Nan immediately came to a realization.
The Patriarch’s injury was similar to a cultivator’s dantian being destroyed.
“She’s right. I had a battle with the Unfettered Sword Progenitor and was unfortunately struck by his Netherworld Chain. This Netherworld Chain does not have a physical form but is somehow sturdy, thus it’s extremely difficult to destroy it. Such a pity, if I were able to destroy this Netherworld Chain and slightly recover my cultivation, I could easily teleport you three away…”
The old white-haired man glanced toward the fast-asleep Mu Mu as he spoke.
It was all his fault. If it weren’t for his pride, it would not have come down to this.
“You can teleport three of us away if the Netherworld Chain is broken?”
Qin Nan was startled. Following this, he immediately recalled his Heaven-Shattering Saber.
Heaven-Shattering Saber—the current form of the right arm of the Divine God of Battle after being refined by the Heaven-Shattering Monarch through sacrificing his life and granting it a formidable power!
Even though Monarch Weapon and other methods had failed to break this Netherworld Chain, it did not mean that the Heaven-Shattering Saber would also fail!
“I shall have a go at this sticky situation. I believe the Heaven-Shattering Saber will never let me down!”
Qin Nan’s gaze became sharp as he unleashed the forces of the Divine God of Battle and the Martial Highness Realm from his body while gathering his focus.
“Mm?”
The old white-haired man and Princess Miao Miao glanced toward him.
“Qin Nan, don’t be a fool! There’s no way you can break the Netherworld Chain!” The old white-haired man snapped when he became aware of Qin Nan’s intentions.
If the Netherworld Chain received any stimulus, it could cause his cultivation to drop even further.
When that happened, he would only be able to teleport one person away!
“Patriarch, just trust me!”
Qin Nan yelled as his right arm exploded into countless light dots, which formed a saber!
“This is…”
The old white-haired man had initially been planning to defend against the attack, but he was stunned the moment he saw the saber.
“Slash!”
Qin Nan uttered a roar as he fully unleashed his strength.
His left arm grabbed the Heaven-Shattering Saber and executed a slash at the Netherworld Chain!
An astonishing sight took place. The Heaven-Shattering Saber emitted a buzz while unleashing a shocking saber intent. However, the saber intent did not have any physical form. Instead, it appeared to be illusionary!
ROAR!
As the Netherworld Chain became aware of the threat, it let out a roar and emitted a powerful dark glow.
However, its efforts were in vain facing the saber!
BANG!
As the Heaven-Shattering Saber slashed downward, the Netherworld Chain was shattered in half, before it exploded into dark dots and disappeared.
“It worked!”
Qin Nan was overjoyed.
As he had thought, the Heaven-Shattering Saber had not let him down!
Buzz!
The Martial Tree behind the old white-haired man had its life force replenished after the chain was broken, allowing the old white-haired man to regain his cultivation. Within three breaths, his cultivation had been restored to the half-Martial Progenitor Realm!
“It…it actually worked?”
A blank expression appeared on the old white-haired man’s face as he noticed the formidable power flowing into his body.
The Netherworld Chain that he had failed to destroy despite trying countless methods had been broken by a junior with a single slash!
“Qin Nan, you’re the best!”
Princess Miao Miao’s face blushed as she immediately hugged Qin Nan and gave him a kiss on his neck.
“Princess…”
Although the slash looked simple on the surface, it had consumed a significant amount of Qin Nan’s energy, thus he began to feel dizzy when he was ‘ambushed’ by the Princess.
“HAHAHA! It’s true that there’s always a way out!” The old white-haired man burst out laughing upon collecting his thoughts, “My daughter, don’t you worry! Now that your father has slightly recovered his cultivation, I’ll definitely guarantee your safety, so that you can pursue your dream!”
The eyes of the Patriarch glistened with tears.
They were tears of joy!
“Qin Nan!” The old white-haired man took a deep breath to calm his thoughts, before he said with a pair of glittering eyes, “That saber, isn’t it the legendary Heaven-Shattering Saber?”
“That’s right.” Qin Nan nodded.
“The Heaven-Shattering Saber, the saber that caused countless experts of the entire continent to go crazy. Who would ever think that you are the one that claimed possession of it in the end? Not to mention the succession of the Heavenly Fortune Path is also in your hands now…” The old white-haired man mumbled to himself. He never thought that he would find such a peerless genius in the Eastern Continent!
It took a while before he collected his thoughts and straightened his face.
“Qin Nan, I believe the enemy is most likely targeting me for this! Since you’ve saved Mu Mu, I can never repay your kindness. It’s yours now!”
Upon saying this, the old white-haired man flipped his hand and a golden seal appeared on it.
“Mm?”
Qin Nan was about to reject the offer but his heart shuddered when he took a glance at the seal.
The golden seal looked ordinary, but he could sense an aura similar to the one emitted by the copper mirror in his Divine Sense deep within the seal!
“Patriarch, thanks.”
Qin Nan received the golden seal and put it into his storage bag.
He would need to inspect it carefully when he had the chance.
“Now that my cultivation has recovered to the half-Martial Progenitor Realm, I shall be able to teleport you three away from here! Qin Nan, Princess, take this badge. If anything happens to me, take this badge and go to the Middle Continent, and look for the Unfettered Sword Progenitor, he will provide his best assistance!” The old white-haired man handed Qin Nan the badge with a stern look.
Qin Nan held the badge in his hand with a stunned expression. Wasn’t the Unfettered Sword Progenitor the one responsible for the Patriarch’s injury?
However, he did not query it. There must be some reason why the Patriarch had told them to do so.
“By the way, I have another favor to ask. I hope you two can look after Mu Mu on my behalf!”
The old white-haired man glanced at Qin Nan and Princess Miao Miao with a pleading look.
Qin Nan and Princess Miao Miao were astounded.
Despite his identity as the heroic conqueror of the Eastern Continent, he was willing to lower his head to plead with them for his daughter’s sake.
“Senior, don’t worry!”
Qin Nan nodded with a solemn expression.
“Qin Nan, thank you.” The old white-haired man let out a sigh of relief before he turned around and silently glanced at Mu Mu’s face, as if he were looking at his daughter for the last time.
Qin Nan and Princess Miao Miao exchanged glances with one another. They were aware of something, but they chose to remain silent.
Time gradually passed.
The attacks continued to be executed outside the residence. The golden leaf Monarch Weapon was already destroyed, as Mu Kun and his crew now focused their attacks on the forbidding aura of the residence.
Meanwhile, the residence was surrounded.
Finally…
The period it took an incense to burn had passed!
