Peerless Battle Spirit
Chapter 8: Annihilation

Qin Yu and Qin Xiao had not expected Qin Nan—whom they had just mentioned—would appear right before them.

They were thoroughly stunned on the spot.

“Qin Nan, why are you here?” Qin Xiao unconsciously asked, as he could not react in time.

“HAHAHAHA, who cares why he’s here!” Qin Yu was the first to react while wearing a hideous grin on his face, “Qin Nan, it’s your fault for taking the path to hell instead of the path to heaven. You’re neither at the Martial Skill Pavilion nor the Qin Clan now! I’m eager to see what you have up your sleeves to behave so conceitedly last time!”

Qin Yu’s aura immediately burst out from his body, which turned out to be the second-layer Body Tempering Realm.

Qin Xiao swiftly collected his thoughts as well, who also wore a hideous grin while emitting his aura. His cultivation had reached the first-layer Body Tempering Realm.

The two brothers extremely detested Qin Nan, and were thinking of getting their revenge all the time. However, as long as Qin Nan remained in the Qin Clan, they did not dare to make their move. After all, Qin Nan’s father was their Patriarch, someone that they could not afford to offend.

Now they were able to stumble into Qin Nan in the Longhu Mountain Range. Even if they decided to kill him here, it would be impossible for the Qin Clan to find out who the culprit was.

Qin Yu and Qin Xiao glared at Qin Nan, as if they were anticipating a hint of fear from his expression.

However, Qin Nan completely let them down.

Qin Nan showed no sign of being intimidated while staring at them. He let out a calm smile instead, “What do I have up my sleeves? I’m afraid you two shameless pricks don’t have the right to know.”

The expressions of Qin Xiao and Qin Yu changed tremendously, while their figures shook in anger.

This guy was too full of himself. He dared to talk in such a conceited manner when death was right at his doorstep.

“Qin Nan, you asked for it!”

Qin Xiao’s eyes reddened after recalling the humiliation he had received the previous day. He uttered a roar while his Martial Spirit emerged behind him together with three yellow rays.

Qin Xiao held the Long Sword Martial Spirit in his hand while charging forward like a ferocious tiger. The sword emitted an icy glow and a first-layer Body Tempering Realm aura.

Qin Yu wore an icy grin while standing behind. He had no intention to join the attack, as Qin Xiao alone was more than enough to deal with Qin Nan.

Qin Nan was able to beat Qin Xiao up last time as he had managed to reach the first-layer Body Tempering Realm first with the help of the Body Tempering Pills.

This time, Qin Yu had reached the first-layer Body Tempering Realm, and together with his third-grade Huang ranked Martial Spirit, there was no way a piece of trash like Qin Nan could stand a chance against him.

At that instant, Qin Nan who had remained in place throughout the process, suddenly made his move.

Instead of drawing out the Black Iron Saber from his waist, he took a big step forward and hurled a punch out.

The punch was the same low-class Martial Skill that he had used to defeat Qin Xiao last time—Collapsing Fist!

“Are you trying to defeat me with the same move? I’ll let you have a taste of my new ability—Isolated Peak Flying Sword!” Qin Xiao let out a mocking laugh while wearing a conceited expression. The long sword in his hand immediately turned blurry, as he executed slashes that were like the flow of water.

The Isolated Peak Flying Sword was a middle-class Martial Skill. Furthermore, his Martial Spirit was able to raise its power.

At that instant, the fist and the sword clashed with one another!

The grin on Qin Xiao’s face froze at that instant. Following this, his face was fully filled with terror as he opened his mouth to try and say something. However, before he could speak, a destructive force landed onto him.

BANG!

Following a loud explosion, Qin Xiao’s figure was shattered into pieces by the brute force, causing his flesh and blood to splatter everywhere.

He had been slain by a single punch, and did not even have the chance to cry out in agony!

Qin Nan wore a calm expression. It was as easy as anything for him to deal with a mere first-grade Body Tempering Realm opponent like Qin Xiao with his cultivation of the third-layer Body Tempering Realm.

“This…”

Qin Yu wore an astonished look, staring blankly at the scene before him. He had never expected his brother’s body to be shattered into pieces by a single punch even after unleashing his Martial Spirit.

“Qin Nan! You dare kill my brother—die!”

Qin Yu immediately collected his thoughts and became enraged. He thoroughly lost his ground. His only thought now was to kill the person before him!

Four yellow rays were emitted from his back, and in the midst of them floated a long bow emanating an icy aura.

This was Qin Yu’s Martial Spirit, a fourth-grade Huang ranked Arctic Bow Spirit!

“Die at once!”

Qin Yu uttered a roar while pulling the string of the Arctic Bow Spirit to its limit. Following this, an icy arrow was fired from the bow.

The icy arrow was Qin Yu’s strongest move. Even an ordinary third-layer Body Tempering Realm cultivator would stand no chance against it.

However, at that instant, Qin Nan drew his Black Iron Saber out and slashed forward.

Following a thunderous explosion, an icy saber glow was fired like a ray of lightning.

The icy arrow was shattered into pieces by the saber glow without any sign of resistance, resulting in a loud crash.

“Huh? Is that all you’ve got?” Qin Nan said without showing any expression, “I only used half of my strength just then.”

“You…” Qin Yu looked at his foe with a blank expression and his mouth opened wide. He could not even say a single word, as it was if his throat was being held tightly.

Despite the strongest blow that he had executed with his cultivation of the second-layer Body Tempering Realm and the full strength of his fourth-grade Huang ranked Martial Spirit, Qin Nan had been able to nullify the attack with half of his strength.

How was this possible?

“Could it be… your cultivation has reached the third-layer Body Tempering Realm!?” Qin Yu immediately gathered his thoughts while glaring at Qin Nan. His face was filled with disbelief, “How is that possible? How could a first-grade Huang ranked Martial Spirit piece of trash achieve the third-layer Body Tempering Realm?”

Normally, it would be considered law-defying for a first-grade Huang ranked Martial Spirit to rank up to the first-layer Body Tempering Realm, let alone the third-layer Body Tempering Realm! Even with a countless supply of Body Tempering Pills, it would also take him some time to cultivate!

Only a few days had passed since the Martial Spirit Awakening Ceremony!

How did Qin Nan rank up to the third-layer Body Tempering Realm within this period?

“A first-grade Huang ranked piece of trash?” Qin Nan burst out laughing, “Qin Yu, how idiotic of you. Do you really think I only have a first-grade Huang ranked Martial Spirit? Very well, I shall let you decide who’s the real piece of trash here!”

As soon as Qin Nan finished his words, seven yellow rays were emitted from his back together with a roar, as the Divine Battle Spirit slowly emerged.

“This——”

Qin Yu stared with his eyes open wide while his face was filled with utter astonishment. The suppression being emitted from the tall human-figured Martial Spirit before him made him feel like dropping to his knees.

The seven yellow rays of the Martial Spirit in particular were incredibly blinding, to such an extent that he could not even open his eyes.

Qin Nan… had a seventh-grade Huang ranked Martial Spirit!

“How…on Earth... Impossible…” It was as if Qin Yu had lost his soul, leaving a blank expression on his face, “Don’t you have a first-grade Huang ranked Martial Spirit? Why do you have such a terrifying Martial Spirit…”

Qun Yu instantly recalled the mocking comments he had uttered to Qin Nan, and the threats he had given to him… He could not help but see himself as an idiot!

He had dared to call a seventh-grade Huang ranked Martial Spirit cultivator a piece of trash? He dared to threaten a seventh-grade Huang ranked Martial Spirit cultivator?

It would serve as a ridiculous joke if it was made known to the public.

A seventh-grade Huang ranked Martial Spirit only appeared once every fifty years in the entirety of Linshui City!

Qin Nan spoke calmly, “I believe you’ve learned the truth now. It’s time for you to keep your brother company.”

The Black Iron Saber in Qin Nan’s hand immediately let out a buzz and a murderous aura.

“AH!” Qin Yu swiftly reacted and dropped to his knees, his face thoroughly filled with fear while giving kowtows. A series of thumps could be heard as his head made contact with the ground while he mumbled, “I beg you… please… please don’t kill…”

Before Qin Yu could finish the sentence, his life was ended following the flash of the saber.

Qin Nan stared at the corpse and said, “I did warn you not to beg me, as it would not make any difference. It appears that you were reluctant to listen to me. Remember, when you reincarnate into the world again, you two should be more humble, and don’t look down on others—don’t act shamelessly. Otherwise, you won’t even have the chance to repent.”

Qin Nan turned around and left the place without hesitation after finishing his words.
