Chapter 1422 - Beyond Extreme
"Extremities of Strength, Will, Mind and Heart?"
Qin Nan fell into deep ponder upon hearing this.
From becoming an ancient cultivator, to the law-defying Martial Sacred Realm, then surpassing the rules of cultivation, these limits seemed to be related to the four extremities.
It was not a coincidence that he was able to master the Extremities.
"So what's after mastering the Extremities? Are there more levels beyond that?"
Qin Nan stopped thinking about it and asked the critical question.
"There are, but with your experience and cultivation now, you won't have any chance of reaching the level even if you find the greatest fortunate encounter."
The copper mirror said coldly, "However, if you are able to step just a little through the doorstep, it would bring you unbelievable changes. You can even lift the Dragon-killing Dao-destructing Deity-eliminating Spear once you achieved the Martial God Realm."
"Just a little through the doorstep? What level is that?"
Qin Nan was astounded.
"You'll know once you ascend to the Nine Heavens."
Qin Nan was left speechless. The copper mirror did not even want to tell him what it was.
Little did he know, the reason why the copper mirror chose not to tell him was that the level was just too distant for him.
Even in the Nine Heavens, people who had reached the level were peerless rulers whose names were reputable across the world. She could count the number of people with a single hand.
Even trying to step a little bit through the doorstep, it was more difficult than ascending the Heavens. Not many people had managed to achieve it.
Qin Nan did not pursue further when the copper mirror stopped talking. He fell into deep thoughts.
"I have no idea what's beyond mastering the Extremities. The only option left is to achieve the Martial God Realm and comprehend the Ultimate of Cultivation, and see whether it will bring any chance."
Achieving the Martial Monarch Realm and Martial God Realm here in the Nine Heavens did not require the Monarch Horoscope or the God Horoscope. It was the true way of cultivation.
If he experienced the true way of cultivation, he would comprehend the Ultimate of Cultivation that the master of the Dao Origin Heavenly Mountain and the others had mentioned, thus bringing him benefits.
Although Qin Nan was now the top one Martial Monarch of all times who had surpassed the rules of cultivation, he had yet to experience the process of cultivating the true way.
As Qin Nan made up his mind, he immediately flew out of the huge chasm.
"Mm?"
As soon as he went into the open, his eyes widened.
The chasm he was in before was nothing ordinary. It was separated from the presence and aura of the outside world. Besides, he did not have the left eye of the Divine God of Battle for the time being, thus he was unaware of the situation outside.
The area close to the chasm was a vast land with the color of blood.
On the surface, huge ravines like dragons spread across the place, with ancient remains and corpses whose blood had yet to dry up. There were countless of them around the area.
There was a huge crack deep into the rift, with a lingering intent of a God Art and a few other intents, strong enough for Qin Nan's heart to feel a hint of iciness.
"It seems like I was spawned in somewhere remarkable."
Qin Nan collected his thoughts. His eyes flickered with excitement without any sign of fear.
Since the very beginning, places that were more dangerous would always contain a greater fortunate encounter.
"Time to go and take a look."
Qin Nan murmured. He withdrew his presence and flew forward.
Time gradually passed. Although Qin Nan had prepared himself mentally, he was still shocked when he saw the enormous mountains and all kinds of rare phenomena.
Everything in the Nine Heavens was nothing that the Canglan Continent could compare to.
Meanwhile, Qin Nan had gained some profits along the way too.
Judging from the outfits of the intact corpses that had only died recently, and the strange markings across the place, he could tell that the cultivators in the battle had come from different factions in this world.
It was highly possible that this place was similar to the forbidden grounds in the Canglan Continent, one that was only accessible in a certain period. The factions would send their experts and geniuses to compete for the succession.
"What is that place?"
Qin Nan came to a sudden stop. He could see towering trees clustered together like an ocean of trees around a few hundred li away, without a visible end.
In addition to that, each of the trees was pitch-black. Even when the wind blew, the leaves on the trees remained still. The trees had a strange presence of death.
Even Qin Nan was feeling uncomfortable toward the presence, his hair was standing on its end.
"This place has given me such a strong impact with just a single glance. I should try to avoid it if I can."
Qin Nan withdrew his gaze and continued forward.
Even though he was not afraid of danger or death, it did not mean he would take any risk that came upon him.
That was not courage, that was ignorant.
"Someone is fighting ahead."
A while later, Qin Nan sharply captured energy ripples coming from the distance. He immediately flew into the rift.
"Is that..."
A few hundred breaths later, Qin Nan's figure reappeared. He was astounded by the sight in the distance.
A magnificent mountain stood on the ground like an awe-inspiring, godly sword. Its tip soared into the clouds. The mountain had a grim, murderous aura, stronger than the presence of a peak Martial God Realm expert.
At the foot of mountain stood an ancient dojo where a few tens of Martial Monarchs were having intense fights against one another.
At the top of the mountain were more than twenty majestic glows. It was obvious that there were Martial God Realm experts fighting there. On top of that, every Martial God had at least achieved the third-layer Martial God Realm. Three of them had even achieved the sixth-layer Martial God Realm.
Most importantly, judging from their appearances, they seemed roughly the same age as Qin Nan.
In other words, everyone here was a peerless genius, their number was a few times of that in the Canglan Continent.
"Mm, what are they competing for?"
Qin Nan's attention was soon attracted by the things at the bottom and top of the mountain.
The Martial Monarchs at the foot of the mountain were competing for fifteen red jade pendants, while those at the top were competing for three purple-golden jade pendants. Each pendant was carved with obscure, ancient runes. They also contained a remarkable power and intelligence.
When the Martial Monarchs or Martial Gods tried to capture the jade pendants with their Monarch Arts and God Arts, the pendants would dodge the incoming attacks like flying dragons.
Buzz!
At that instant, Qin Nan's body shuddered vigorously as a will that appeared out of nowhere entered his mind.
