Chapter 1414 - The Counterattack Begins
The Lost Herb Garden was unique among the factions.
There were only a few humans in the faction. Most of the experts were the transformations of magical herbs.
It was the reason why many people were prying on the Lost Herb Garden for many years. A few hundred years ago, the Lost Herb Garden encountered a deadly conspiracy. The previous ruler of the Lost Herb Garden died in it.
"Is this...the Lost Herb Garden?"
Qin Nan was stunned as he saw the scene before him.
"Mm?"
The master of the Dao Origin Heavenly Mountain and the others reacted similarly.
Below the Seven Luminaries Flying Sword was a huge island.
The whole island seemed to have gone through an epic battle. The trees and flowers, and the formations were utterly destroyed. The place was covered in ravines. The place was in a mess and felt lifeless. It did not look like the entrance of a forbidden ground.
"It seems like the South-Heaven Gate had got its revenge from the Lost Herb Garden," the eyes of the master of the Dao Origin Heavenly Mountain flickered as he spoke, "Seven Luminaries, open up the sword."
Following it, he transmitted a message through an ancient badge.
It went without saying that he would know the masters of the other factions at his level.
"Revenge?"
Qin Nan was startled.
He did not expect this to happen.
He initially thought that under the current circumstances, the South-Heaven Gate would want to recruit the Lost Herb Garden to its side just like how it had reached out to the Blood Tribe, Lightning Tribe and Flame Tribe. It was unlikely that the South-Heaven Gate would do any harm to the Lost Herb Garden.
Whoosh!
Wisps of godly rays descended from the sky. A moment later, an old man with white hair and eyes like jade crystals appeared with an intimidating presence.
The old man was the current master of the Lost Herb Garden, Martial God Tang Mu.
His cultivation was only slightly weaker compared to the master of the Dao Origin Heavenly Mountain and the others.
"Tang Mu..."
The master of the Dao Origin Heavenly Mountain and the Martial Serendipity Pavilion spoke at the same time.
"Qin Nan, you want to see the Princess?" Martial Monarch Tang Mu interrupted by waving his hand and glanced at Qin Nan coldly, "It's because of you, that the island we've spent a few hundred years trying to recover is destroyed once again."
"There's nothing else to say, from today onward, our Lost Herb Garden has nothing to do with you."
"And don't think about seeing the Princess, we won't let her see you."
The words were uttered firmly.
"Senior, I..."
Qin Nan's heart shuddered.
"Don't call me senior, I can't afford it."
"You're indeed an incomparable genius, many of our elders have high hopes in you, but you're now regarded as the enemy of the whole world. You can't possibly achieve the Martial God Realm. Even if you managed to achieve it, you won't be able to destroy the South-Heaven Gate still. The situation still won't change."
"Therefore, stop dragging us into it, and stop bothering the Princess."
Martial Monarch Tang Mu said coldly. He glanced at the master of the Dao Origin Heavenly Mountain and the others and added, "On behalf of the Princess, I won't tell the South-Heaven Gate your whereabouts, but I won't be so kind the next time."
Saying this, his figure slowly disappeared into countless light dots scattering in the air.
The whole place fell into dead silence.
"Qin Nan, don't worry about it," the young man of the Martial Serendipity Pavilion shook his head and said after some time, "This Tang Mu's mind is just too narrow and shallow. Even if he doesn't believe that you can achieve the Martial God Realm, he shouldn't be saying that too right?"
The master of the Dao Origin Heavenly Mountain and the Sword Spirit Seven Luminaries nodded.
Although the situation did seem hopeless in their favor, Martial God Tang Mu had no idea that Empress Feiyue too was on their side. She was now making preparations for the plan.
"Senior, there's nothing wrong about what Senior Tang Mu said. We can't blame him at all," Qin Nan calmly said after a slight hesitation, "It's my responsibility that their island is destroyed because they were in the South-Heaven Gate's way."
"Besides, even under the current circumstances, I have yet to do anything, why would they believe in me?"
The master of the Dao Origin Heavenly Mountain exchanged glances with one another and said, "Qin Nan, are you..."
"Don't worry, I'm fine. I should focus on entering the Nine Heavens with my soul, to surpass my limit."
Qin Nan wore a calm face.
It was useless discussing their thoughts and plans now.
The only thing that mattered now was him entering the Nine Heavens to surpass his limit and carry out the plan by achieving the Martial God Realm to prove himself.
Once it all came to an end, it was not too late to see the Princess after he had returned the Lost Herb Garden's favor.
"If that's what you think, we won't mention it again."
The Sword Spirit Seven Luminaries immediately wore a stern look as it spoke, "Magical Hair and I once invented a teleportation talisman together. It will allow your soul to reach the Ancient Demon Path, but its range is limited, and if the process is disrupted..."
"Besides, your flesh will have to be placed in an almost destroyed state before you enter the Bodhi Jade Soul Tree..."
"It will take the will of the South-Heaven Gate, Monarch Ranking and God Ranking around a hundred breaths time..."
Magical Hair had already deduced the situation for Qin Nan, the approach they should take to enter the Ancient Demon Path successfully.
"As expected of Magical Hair, to plan everything so thoroughly. The chance of success is at least seventy percent by following his plan."
The master of the Dao Origin Heavenly Mountain and the Martial Serendipity Pavilion could not help but exclaim.
"If so, I'll leave the rest to seniors. We'll start once I fully master the art."
Qin Nan said.
After confirming the details, he flew to a lake, calmed his thoughts and sat with his legs crossed. He gathered his focus and directed it into the pendant.
The Magical Hair Sword God had acquired the Martial Art in the Nine Heavens. It was not something that the Monarch Arts and God Arts in the Canglan Continent were comparable to.
Even he had to fully focus to comprehend it.
Time gradually passed. Three days were gone in the blink of an eye.
Within these three days, the deadly situation in the half-God region and the Middle Continent did not decline. Instead, as time gradually passed, Yin and Yang Taoist was using more approaches to look for Qin Nan and his crew.
That being said, most of the cultivators had gotten used to the situation.
"This Martial Art is so obscure, it took me three whole days to master it."
Qin Nan's eyes sprang open. A magical glow was emitted from his eyes.
The glow was a kind of immortal glow.
"Senior..."
After Qin Nan transmitted his message, his figure unleashed a cold saber intent.
"It's time for payback after trying to hunt me down for so long!"
