"What? A mere Spirit Pill Realm level six managed to find a top-grade Yellow Rank Martial Skill!" A True Disciple, seeing Chu Nan obtain the martial skill, couldn't help but feel envious.
Moreover, someone glanced over, saw the words on the Jade Scroll, and said in a trembling voice, "Roaming Dragon Shocking Wind Step, it seems to be a body technique martial skill."
Instantly, many True Disciples' faces lit up with wild joy. A martial skill of this level, even if they didn't cultivate it themselves, could be exchanged for tens of thousands of contribution points back at the Sect, an unimaginably high value.
"Chu Nan, let me have a look at the Roaming Dragon Shocking Wind Step." Someone reached out, speaking to Chu Nan.
Chu Nan held the Jade Scroll and slightly frowned. Wan Qiang, who walked to his side, said worriedly, "Chu Nan, what should we do?"
Wan Qiang had already broken through to the late stage of Spirit Pill Realm level nine, ranking in the upper tier among the True Disciples.
But there were thirteen True Disciples here, most of them at the peak of Spirit Pill Realm level eight, several at the early stage of level nine. Although their cultivation wasn't very high, they had numbers on their side.
Wan Qiang was unsure, wanting to escape with Chu Nan.
However, Chu Nan indifferently said, "Just a rabble, nothing to be afraid of."
"Wan Qiang, we've just broken through and haven't tested our new abilities. Isn't this the best opportunity?"
Hearing Chu Nan's words, Wan Qiang was initially shocked, then relaxed. Since Chu Nan was so confident, there must be no danger: "In that case, let's fight to the death!"
The dozen or so True Disciples saw Chu Nan and Wan Qiang whispering to each other, unwilling to hand over the martial skill, and their faces gradually showed anger.
"Chu Nan, don't think that just because you're the Sect Leader's Disciple we'll be afraid of you. If you die here, even the Sect Leader won't find out who did it. I advise you not to lose your life over a martial skill!"
Suddenly, a Spirit Pill Realm level nine martial artist charged out first, saying, "Enough talk, everyone attack together, we'll split the contribution points evenly we gain!"
That martial artist, wielding a long halberd, his body roared like a battle drum, sending a shocking cold glint tearing towards Chu Nan.
At this moment, Wan Qiang said, "This person is named Zhou Kan, ranked twelfth on the True Disciple list. Before entering the Haotian Tower, he was already at the late stage of Spirit Pill Realm level nine and has now reached the peak. His strength is estimated to be second only to the top five True Disciples!"
"This person is arrogant and overbearing, often bullying weaker disciples and also capturing female loose cultivators to exchange with Lu Chi for cultivation resources."
"Among these people, he's probably the strongest!"
He rapidly informed Chu Nan about all of Zhou Kan's details.
A trace of killing intent flashed in Chu Nan's eyes; any one of Zhou Kan's actions could warrant a death sentence many times over!
"You handle the others, Zhou Kan is mine."
Chu Nan decided to kill Zhou Kan to set an example!
Wan Qiang slowly nodded and then blocked the True Disciples following closely behind Zhou Kan.
Rip!
The long halberd cut through the air, seemingly tearing the heavens and earth apart, emitting a shrill, ear-piercing screech.
Clang!
Chu Nan swung the Red Peak Sword to clash with Zhou Kan's long halberd, producing a thunderous metallic sound.
Buzz, buzz, buzz~
The Red Peak Sword trembled continuously, as if it were about to shatter at any moment. Chu Nan furrowed his brows, retreating to avoid a direct weapon clash.
"Heh, a mere Spirit Pill Realm level six dares to block my great halberd. Truly overestimating your capabilities."
"So what if you're the Sect Leader's Disciple? Today, I'll stab a hundred holes in you, leaving you with no place for your corpse to lay to rest!"
Zhou Kan laughed wildly, swinging the great halberd to kill Chu Nan once more.
Chu Nan remained expressionless, utilizing the Soaring Wind Sky-Stepping Technique, making his body move unpredictably, avoiding direct weapon clashes with Zhou Kan.
The great halberd was a low-grade spirit martial weapon, its power and toughness exceeding the Red Peak Sword, which was a top-grade mortal martial weapon.
The Red Peak Sword, having been in multiple battles with spirit martial weapons, was already worn internally. If not for Chu Nan's formidable sword skills minimizing direct clashes, this mortal weapon would have shattered to pieces long ago.
To avoid being left weaponless, Chu Nan chose to retreat.
"Cyan Mountain Radiant Sun Sword!"
Seeing the great halberd coming, the Red Peak Sword lightly trembled as it released a sword strike through the air. An immense blazing sword qi transformed into a towering sun, charging explosively towards Zhou Kan.
Bang!
The sword qi sun clashed with the great halberd, two forces like massive waves ferociously colliding, accompanied by a deafening roar, exploding apart.
Zhou Kan was impacted by this force, retreating over ten steps, and looked at Chu Nan in surprise: "This power, you're not a Spirit Pill Realm level six?"
"Thunderous Dominating Fist, resonate one hundred fifty!"
Without a word, Chu Nan stomped forward, closing the distance instantly while Zhou Kan was unsteady.
His eyes burned with battle intent; for a martial artist, battle is their sustenance.
Through battle after battle, one eliminates enemies, growing stronger.
Only those who continuously endure life-and-death battles can become truly powerful!
His fist descended like a meteor, the thunder wrapping it like a Thunder Dragon submitting to Chu Nan.
Zhou Kan saw this punch coming, a strong sense of crisis arose, wanting to block with his halberd but it was too late!
Bang!
The punch went through the unfinished defense, squarely landing on Zhou Kan's chest, sending both him and the halberd flying, his chest garments charred black, spitting blood mixed with fragments of internal organs.
Chu Nan didn't continue; the higher the martial artist's realm, the harder it is to challenge opponents beyond one's rank.
Zhou Kan's strength had increased significantly since entering the Haotian Tower, and with Chu Nan's current power, he couldn't kill him easily.
The Thunderous Dominating Fist, resonating one hundred fifty times, was used at great risk, consuming much of his energy.
Puha!
Zhou Kan spat several mouthfuls of blood, getting up with difficulty, then snarled angrily: "Bastard, I'll mount your head on my great halberd!"
His face twisted with rage, the peak of Spirit Pill Realm level nine's aura burst forth, swinging the great halberd to attack Chu Nan once more.
"Tian Ming War Halberd's three techniques, Chu Nan, perish for me!"
This strike fell directly down, aiming to cleave Chu Nan in two!
A flash of sharpness crossed Chu Nan's eyes; using the Soaring Wind Sky-Stepping Technique, his body moved unpredictably, weaving through the puppets around to avoid Zhou Kan's attacks.
Bang!
A puppet, struck by Zhou Kan, shattered into fragments instantaneously.
Zhou Kan continued to pursue Chu Nan, his halberd's swings capable of destroying several puppets with each motion.
Chu Nan hid among the puppets, feigning to swallow an elixir while simultaneously activating the Desolate Profound Transformation.
The Desolate Profound Transformation was terrifying; he seldom used it around others, camouflaging its power with an elixir, making them believe the strength came from the elixir and not from himself.
Wham!
Large segments of puppets were smashed by Zhou Kan, nearly clearing the area. Zhou Kan laughed, saying: "Chu Nan, let's see where you'll run this time!"
"To kill me, you don't have what it takes!" Chu Nan shouted fiercely, suddenly dashing out from the shattered puppets, almost resembling a Demon Beast.
A punch, blazing with thunder, smashed directly towards Zhou Kan's head.
Bang!
Using Desolate Profound Transformation, Chu Nan's cultivation was on par with a Spirit Pill Realm level nine. Along with his solid foundation and formidable martial skills, he was unrivaled except against the likes of Jiang Yixing and Lu Chi, those top-tier Spirit Pill Martial Artists!
The heavy strike caved in the back of Zhou Kan's head, his face turned pale with fright and he retreated in terror, exclaiming: "What is this, why have you transformed like this!"
