Peerless Battle Spirit

Chapter 1054 – South-Heaven Godly Curtain

Meanwhile, Qin Nan’s figure slowly appeared in the Lunar-Glow Cave.

“You’re…you’re not…you managed to get out from there?” The spirit of the Chaotic Nine Glows Boulder was going to say ‘dead’, but it immediately changed its words as it was not very appropriate. It blurted out in astonishment.

It initially thought that Qin Nan’s life had been endangered when it did not see him returning in time.

“The Desolated Battle Spirit didn’t kill me, but let me go instead.”

Qin Nan answered with a frown.

Although he had failed to complete the character and thus missed the reward that the Desolated Battle Spirit had promised, he was not disappointed by the outcome. A strong presence like him would not promise him a reward out of nowhere, thus the greater the reward, the bigger the conspiracy behind it.

What Qin Nan was concerned about was the world with no immortal, the World’s Cage, and the Nine Heavens Stone that the Desolated Battle Spirit had mentioned.

His instincts were telling him that those were the real secrets of the Canglan Continent.

“Nine Heavens Stone? So it’s related to the Nine Heavens?”

The thought crossed his mind, reminding him about the Cloud Mountain Range and the Desolated Battle Ground.

The Cloud Mountain Range contained the path to the Nine Heavens, while the Desolated Battle Ground contained the mysterious Nine Heavens Stone. Once his cultivation grew stronger, he would have to investigate the secrets of these two places.

“Let you go? The Chaotic Nine Glows Boulder was startled, which then glimpsed at the jar in Qin Nan’s hand, causing its illusionary figure to tremble as if it were struck by thunder.

“Mm?”

Qin Nan was aware of its reaction and recalled the words of the Desolated Battle Spirit. He said with a chuckle, “What is it? This thing is very useful for you?”

“This…this is the Tear of the Moon!”

The Chaotic Nine Glows Boulder collected its thoughts and spoke with a trembling voice, “Give it to me, it means a lot to me!”

Saying this, it calmed its tone and continued, “In return, when I’m refining it, I’ll be able to activate the Chaotic Nine Glows Mystical Ground. Your rate of cultivation will be fifteen times faster if you were to cultivate inside! Besides that, if you give it to me, I’ll owe you a favor!”

Qin Nan nodded upon hearing this, “Deal.”

In Qin Nan’s eyes, he had obtained the Tear of the Moon from the Desolated Battle Spirit for free, thus anything would still be a profit for him.

Besides, he could use some time cultivating in the Chaotic Nine Glows Mystical Ground.

“Come and see me tomorrow.”

The Chaotic Nine Glows Boulder blurted out before falling silent.

“Tomorrow, huh?”

Qin Nan frowned slightly.

If he were to look for other fortunate encounters in the Desolated Battle Ground, it would take him more than a day. However, it would be a waste of time if he simply spent the day cultivating here.

“I can visit the half-God region!”

The thought crossed Qin Nan’s mind.

After the series of events the past few days, he had not forgotten about the half-God region. This was the perfect time for him to take a tour around the place to gain a basic understanding.

As Qin Nan reached this decision, he immediately flew into the distance without hesitation.

He would have to take the Colorful Golden Path to reach the half-God region, as it was the only way to pass through the barrier.

Qin Nan arrived at the Colorful Golden Path a while later. As he set his foot onto the colorful golden path, his heart became heavy, as if he were now a servant making his way across a long distance to meet the king.

“This half-God region really knows how to have their fun. A mere Colorful Golden Path is able to influence one’s thoughts.”

Qin Nan wore a cold grin as his figure shuddered and got rid of the effect.

Two hours later, Qin Nan finally reached the end of the Colorful Golden Path.

“This…”

As Qin Nan raised his head and glanced forward, his eyes filled with astonishment.

A faint purple light curtain could be seen descending from the boundless rift ahead, dropping onto the ground, separating the Middle Continent in half.

The scenery inside and outside of the barrier was entirely different to each other, like two different worlds. action

Meanwhile, at the end of the Colorful Golden Path ahead of Qin Nan was a giant gap, shaped like a huge door. Once he passed through the door, he would be entering the half-God region.

For some reason, he did not see any cultivators nearby.

Phew!

Qin Nan uttered a relieved sigh and calmed his thoughts as he approached the door.

“Mm?”

Qin Nan was slightly startled.

He keenly noticed that every few steps he took, the pressure that his body was under grew stronger too, which was similar to the situation when he had been trying to write the character ‘Immortal’ on the boulder.

“Is resisting the pressure a requirement prior to entering the half-God region?”

Qin Nan murmured as he proceeded forward.

However, his expression was replaced with a solemn look as he continued to move forward.

The reason being that the pressure was on par with the strength of an eighth-layer Marital Progenitor—even he was having trouble!

“Destruction Domain!"

Qin Nan groaned as he summoned the pitch-black domain, allowing him to dash forward.

Finally, as he reached the entrance an invisible force materialized, sealing the door tight!

“Something isn’t right!”

Qin Nan wore a troubled expression.

Normally, this would not happen when someone was trying to enter the half-God region. Otherwise, the Nine-Tailed Monarch Beast would surely remind him.

Why was he being blocked by the barrier?

Was something doing it on purpose?

“Strange, the barrier separating the Middle Continent is extraordinarily powerful. My left eye is unable to observe anything from it, which means that it’s at least been established by a Martial God Realm expert! Even if it were being manipulated with brute force, it would need the power of Martial Monarch Realm experts. I’ve never been to the half-God region. Why would someone stop me from entering?”

“Or maybe there were some changes lately?”

Qin Nan thought quickly.

The entire situation was too abnormal.

“I did forget something, maybe I should check with the Shadow Pagoda to learn more about the barrier.”

Qin Nan’s eyes glistened as he picked up the badge and transmitted a message.

Even if it meant paying a cost, it was more important to get the information he needed.

The badge soon emitted a glow as it received a response from the Shadow Pagoda, prompting Qin Nan to inspect it.

“The Middle Continent has ten Colorful Golden paths in total that serve as the entrance to the half-God region. The barrier encapsulating the half-God region is also known as the South-Heaven Godly Curtain. In the past, as the half-God region was established, the South-Heaven Gate specifically established the barrier to protect the half-God region. No one has ever broken through it once.”

Qin Nan was shocked.

He did not expect the barrier to be constructed by the South-Heaven Gate.

In other words, the South-Heaven Godly Curtain was specifically targeting him, stopping him from entering the half-God region. Did that mean…

The South-Heaven Gate was watching him?
