Chapter 503 - Flowerless Fruit, Soul-Consuming Fire (1/2)

“What is that——”

Despite the experiences of the Martial Ancestor Realm or even the Martial Dominator Realm cultivators, it was their first time witnessing an aura that could make their souls shiver.

“Father!”

“Stop him, quick! He has a sixth-grade Di ranked Martial Spirit, he is going to suck all the energy from the Aquamarine Crystal!

At that instant, Fan Yu and Ji Tianxiao rushed out from the hole and blurted this out, as if they had found a ray of hope.

The words served as thunder out of the blue

The cultivators’ faces were filled with great astoundment.

A sixth-grade Di ranked Martial Spirit!

Did that man from the lower district possess such a terrifying talent?

“Stop him at once!”

Meanwhile, a raging growl could be heard from the Weapon Spirit of the Ninth City.

If Qin Nan were to continue absorbing, it would lose at least a fifth of its energy!

The faces of Ji Wuming and Fan Yu immediately darkened. At the current stage, if they were to stop Qin Nan from cultivating here, he would most likely leave the Ninth City and cultivate at the Heavenly Barrier Mountain Range.

Therefore, they were left with no choice.

“Senior Weapon Spirit, please calm down. This man is the hope of our Ninth City. Three days—just three days would be enough. I’ll give you something in return…” Fan Hao took a deep breath and comforted the Weapon Spirit with his words.

The Weapon Spirit immediately burst out roaring, but the two humans before it showed no sign of compromising, thus it was left with no choice either. Since Qin Nan was cultivating through the Aquamarine Crystal, it could not attack him either; thus it could only accept Fan Hao’s request.

An uproar took place among the crowd.

“City Lord, what’s going on? If he continues to absorb the energy, it will affect the entire Ninth City!”

“That’s right, get him out!”

“We can’t let him cultivate any longer!”

The palaces, shops, and training grounds of the Ninth City were all supported by the Weapon Spirit. If the Weapon Spirit’s energy were to be consumed greatly, the resources given to them would be reduced too.

Fan Yu and Ji Tianxiao were joyful upon seeing the reaction of the crowd. They would be more than happy to stop Qin Nan from cultivating further.

“Shut up!” Ji Wuming snapped, “The Aquamarine Chamber is always opened for three days. It’s impossible to close it in advance. If anyone has any questions, come and talk to me at the City Lord’s Mansion!”

Fan Hao’s eyes coldened too.

“Father…”

Fan Yu and Ji Tianxiao were both stunned.

The crowd was also startled. They had not expected them to be this stubborn and be partial toward Qin Nan. They immediately became silent, as no one dared to offend them both at the same time.

Little did they know that both Ji Tianxiao and Fan Hao were having a great heartache.

Once the Weapon Spirit was damaged, their clans would suffer the greatest loss from among all the factions in the city.

Most importantly, if the Weapon Spirit were to hold grudges against them, it would not cooperate with them any longer.

“Just three days! After three days, we will be able to detain Qin Nan and obtain his secrets!”

Ji Tianxiao and Fan Hao clenched their teeth. Some sacrifice had to be made in order for them to grow stronger!

...After the dispute had been settled, inside the Aquamarine Chamber...

Fan Xinru and the rest of the geniuses had left, as it was meaningless for them to stay any longer.

“Cleanse the Nascent Soul!”

Qin Nan uttered a roar while guiding the endless stream of energy from the Aquamarine Crystal into his Nascent Soul.

The Nascent Soul shone brightly while the purple glowing armor-plate solidified further.
