"Mark?"
Upon seeing this, Su Nan's face darkened.
Clearly, the monster knew that it was impossible to stop him from obtaining the divine weapon, so it planned to attack him after he got the divine weapon.
"This escort mission for the divine weapon can be rated as three stars, and its difficulty probably lies in protecting it after obtaining the divine weapon."
Thinking about the difficulty of the mission, Su Nan was not too surprised. After all, it was an escort mission, and if the escort process went smoothly, it wouldn't be rated as a three-star mission.
"The prophecy did not specify the secret technique used by that monster. Even if I use my racial talent, I must kill it!"
"But it doesn't matter. I can try one by one with the prophecies. I don't believe that I can't find the culprit among more than ten top-level Xuan-class monsters!"
[A few breaths later, as if you passed through an invisible barrier, you arrived in another space.]
[This is a space with a diameter of a full kilometer, extremely vast. The ground is covered with densely packed white bones, which were once ancient monsters sealed here.]
[Scanning the surroundings, you immediately notice a blood-red longsword inserted into the ground in the center of this space.]
[The longsword is sharp, even from a distance, you can feel a tingling sensation on your skin. You realize that this is the ancient divine weapon you're looking for, the core of this formation.]
[Time is running out, and you quickly rush towards the red longsword. You realize that your bloodline is being suppressed, and your power is rapidly decreasing.]
[When you reach the longsword, the power you can exert is already less than the peak of ordinary level. Without thinking too much, you grab the red longsword and try to pull it out.]
[To your surprise, the red longsword is easily pulled out, thanks to the influence of your human race's luck.]
"Success!"
Su Nan's eyes lit up. As long as he had the divine weapon, this mission would be considered complete. Now, even if the Demon King intervened, he wouldn't be afraid.
Next, he just needed to find the ancient monster's blood in this place, and the mission would be perfectly completed.
[With the extraction of the ancient divine weapon, this formation node is completely broken, and the suppression of your bloodline disappears completely. At the same time, the spatial power formed by the formation you are in starts to become unstable and may collapse at any moment.]
[You didn't leave immediately but quickly searched the space, wanting to find the residual blood of the ancient monsters.]
[However, there were too many monster bones left here, and you didn't have time to search. At this moment, monsters also rushed in, and the space was on the verge of collapse. You had no chance.]
[Helplessly, you had to give up searching for the ancient monster's blood and prepare to leave here first.]
[Just as you were about to take action, your luck played a role. Inadvertently, you suddenly noticed a very inconspicuous red spot about a hundred meters to your left.]
[You were overjoyed, knowing that it was the ancient monster's blood you were looking for.]
[You unleashed all your strength, instantly reaching the red spot, and grabbed a piece of bright red bone.]
"Congratulations, you obtained a bone containing ancient monster blood."
[At this moment, the space formed by the formation suddenly collapsed, and at a critical moment, you used the Celestial Shift to leave the space.]
[The fourteenth premonition ends. Do you want to continue?]
"Luck played a role!"
Su Nan's eyes showed a look of joy. Without luck, he might not have been able to find the blood. But in that case, he would need a lot of premonitions to find it.
With the divine weapon in hand and the ancient monster blood, he only needed to follow the plan to hunt down the monsters. This mission was almost perfectly accomplished, except for the fact that he was marked by the monsters. There were no other unexpected incidents.
He didn't stop the premonition.
Su Nan chose to continue.
[Using the Celestial Shift, the next moment you arrived two thousand meters away from the Martial King Temple. As you looked towards the Martial King Temple, you saw countless bones raining down from the sky above the temple.]
[Taking advantage of the fact that no monsters noticed you, you quickly left and headed towards the Golden Dawn Tower. At the same time, through your avatar, you knew that the formation node of the Golden Dawn Tower had also been opened.]
[A large number of monsters and warriors were fighting in the space formed by the formation, trying to seize the last ancient divine weapon.]
[Fortunately, the closer you were to the divine weapon, the stronger the suppression of the bloodline's power. In this place, the monsters did not have a significant advantage, and you wanted to take the divine weapon.]
[However, just as you were about to take action, you were intercepted by the Point Star Sect's strong. They didn't want you to obtain the divine weapon; instead, they planned to let another outsider collect the divine weapon.]
"Stopped?"
Su Nan frowned. If possible, he didn't mind taking both divine weapons. Although Wang Nan's character did not have a sub-quest to escort the divine weapon, he would undoubtedly receive rewards from the Great Yu Dynasty if he could escort the divine weapon to the Central Heaven County. He would only lose out on three thousand points of contribution.
"This should not be because the Point Star Sect does not want me to get the divine weapon, but because Zhou Cheng does not want me to get the divine weapon!" He thought and quickly understood the reason.
Unfortunately, Zhou Cheng's plan was doomed to fail.
[You did not give up on collecting the divine weapon. Using the Celestial Shift, you surpassed everyone and arrived at a place only one meter away from the ancient divine weapon.]
[You suddenly appeared in front of the divine weapon, astonishing both monsters and human warriors. Both sides attacked you in unison, trying to stop you.]
[However, their speed was still a step slower. You grabbed the divine weapon with one hand and pulled it out.]
"Congratulations, you obtained another ancient divine weapon."
The second divine weapon was in hand!
Su Nan's mouth curled up with satisfaction as he continued to look at the premonition.
[With the extraction of the ancient divine weapon, this formation node was completely broken, and the suppression of the bloodline's power disappeared. The space formed by the formation power also began to destabilize and could collapse at any time.]
[The second formation node in Tianyun County was broken, and the power that suppressed the monsters disappeared completely. At this moment, all the monsters in Tianyun County gained a certain level of improvement in strength.]
[Your actions angered several peak-level Xuan-class monsters and also angered the warriors of the Point Star Sect, who attacked you in an attempt to seize the divine weapon.]
[At the same time, several peak-level Xuan-class monsters immediately cast a secret technique on you, leaving an invisible mark on you to prevent your escape.]
"They're coming again!"
Su Nan frowned. He suddenly had a bad feeling. When he was marked before, he could use the secret technique of that monster.
But now, if he was marked by several
monsters simultaneously, it was obviously a problem.
Could it be that all peak-level Xuan-class monsters knew that secret technique?
He thought of this and his expression darkened.
The information from the subsequent premonitions confirmed his speculation.
[You don't know that this is a secret technique bestowed by the Demon Emperor to better capture warriors escorting divine weapons.]
"A secret technique bestowed by the Demon Emperor?"
Su Nan's face looked unpleasant. Just now, he was thinking of trying to find the monster that used the secret technique in the premonition.
Now it seemed impossible.
Even if he found that monster, the other monsters would definitely use it too.
He didn't have the strength to kill all the peak-level Xuan-class monsters.
"Nothing I can do, I'll just take it one step at a time," Su Nan sighed.
[You didn't intend to escape immediately but wanted to find the residual blood of ancient monsters in this formation space.]
[Unfortunately, you were disappointed. Before you could search, the formation space shattered, and your body, along with a large number of bones, fell around the Golden Dawn Tower.]
[Seeing the bones, the extraterrestrial visitors who were watching from afar also realized that there might be treasures hidden in the bones. Many extraterrestrial visitors rushed over and frantically searched through the bones.]
[You knew that it was impossible to find the ancient monster's blood in this situation. You turned to look at the several peak-level Xuan-class monsters attacking you, and you decided to use Celestial Shift to escape.]
[Your avatar appeared two thousand meters away from the Golden Dawn Tower, where your main body had just arrived.]
"You didn't get it?" Su Nan frowned.
Perhaps it was because the Martial King Temple's node was broken, but the formation space around the Golden Dawn Tower shattered too quickly. The space collapsed as soon as he pulled out the ancient divine weapon, giving him no chance to search.
"It looks like I'll have to find the ancient monster's blood first before collecting the ancient divine weapon," he thought, formulating a plan. Even if he didn't act, someone else, like Zhou Cheng, would collect the divine weapon soon, and that process wouldn't take long.
To find the ancient monster's blood within that time frame, he would need to rely on repeated premonitions.
However, it wasn't the time to premonition again right now. After all the premonitions he had gone through, he had finally arrived at the Martial King Temple. Originally, he had five minutes for premonitions, but now only two minutes remained.
The premonition time wasn't enough, and he had used up all his premonition chances for the day. He could only wait until the Golden Dawn Tower was on the verge of being breached before premonition again.
At the Martial King Temple, just like at the Golden Dawn Tower, there were countless players, numbering as many as twenty to thirty thousand, scattered everywhere, not any fewer than the players at the Golden Dawn Tower.
When they saw Su Nan's arrival, they cheered and rejoiced.
"Zhang Yang! It's Zhang Yang, the great deity!"
"Last time, Zhang Yang single-handedly slaughtered the army of monsters. I wonder how many monsters he can kill this time?"
Like the players at the Golden Dawn Tower, everyone was speculating about how many monsters Zhang Yang, Su Nan's in-game name, could kill this time.
Some players even organized bets and started taking wagers from others, guessing how many monsters Zhang Yang would kill.
"Young friend, I didn't expect to see you here after a few days," an elderly man said as he approached Su Nan.
Su Nan recognized the man; he was Ji Changfeng, the head of the Monster Execution Office in Jiuting County.
"Elder, I didn't expect to meet you here either," Su Nan replied with a smile.
Ji Changfeng had a complex expression. He already knew that Su Nan was incredibly powerful. Even at the early stages of the Spirit Realm, he had easily hunted down peak-level Spirit Realm monsters. However, he couldn't have imagined that, after leaving Tianyun City, Su Nan would not only continuously hunt down several peak-level Xuan-class monsters but also kill a mid-level Xuan-class Great Demon. Now, Su Nan had reached the pinnacle of the Spirit Realm, and his speed of growth was astonishing.
"The county governor has already told me about your situation. Whatever you want to do, feel free to do it. I will do my best to create opportunities for you," Ji Changfeng said.
Su Nan knew Ji Changfeng was referring to the final task of collecting the divine weapon. He nodded in acknowledgment.
As they were talking, suddenly, a thunderous voice resounded from tens of miles to the south of Tianyun City:
"Old man, from now on, I'll be taking over Tianyun County."
It was the voice of Hu Xiaotian!
Following that, the voice of the county governor of Tianyun County rang out, "Hu Xiaotian, don't get too excited. The outcome is still uncertain. We don't know who will win yet!"
Before his words could even finish, the ground shook with loud rumbling sounds. Hu Xiaotian and the county governor had begun their battle.
Su Nan immediately looked in the direction of the fight, which was several miles away. He saw that the demonic army was rapidly approaching.
"It's starting!"
He took a deep breath and prepared to take action.
A few breaths later, the demonic army arrived. Just like the players at the Golden Dawn Tower, the players at the Martial King Temple were here merely to spectate. When they saw the demons approaching, they quickly moved away from the temple, showing no intention of doing the task.
Su Nan took action.
Flames enveloped the area, and in an instant, two early-stage Xuan-class demons were incinerated by his flames.
Witnessing this, the surrounding players and Great Yu Dynasty warriors, both extraterrestrial visitors and demonkind, were stunned by Su Nan's abilities.
"What kind of flames are those? How can Zhang Yang's flames be so powerful?"
"Instant kill! Zhang Yang actually instant-killed Xuan-class Great Demons! This is unbelievable!"
Players exclaimed in shock, taken aback by Su Nan's prowess.
The demons were both amazed and angry.
"Be careful, it's the head of the Monster Execution Office! Don't be fooled by his level. It's said that even Hook Sickle and Purple Armor both died at his hands!"
"It's him! He's the one that Lord Water Phantom paid special attention to. We can't let him escape!"
Upon hearing Su Nan's identity, no demon dared to be careless. Fifteen mid-level Xuan-class demons exchanged glances and began surrounding Su Nan.
Su Nan remained fearless and continued to take action.
Two minutes later, despite being surrounded by mid-level Xuan-class demons, he found an opportunity and killed four early-stage Xuan-class demons.
At the same time, his consciousness descended into his other form, Wang Nan, controlling it to engage in battle.
Dual-line operations had begun!
Three minutes later, Su Nan's two avatars had collectively killed nine demons.
Six minutes later, the two avatars had collectively killed twenty demons.
...
Fifteen minutes later, the two avatars had collectively killed fifty-three demons.
At this point, just as the premonition had foretold, the first formation node was broken.
Su Nan paid it no attention and continued his actions.
Twenty-one minutes later, his two avatars had collectively killed one hundred and twenty-four demons!
On average, each avatar had killed more than sixty demons!
This scene left the players from the Golden Dawn Tower and Martial King Temple dumbfounded.
If it weren't for the ranking boards showing his realm, they would have suspected that both characters had reached the Spirit Realm!
"How is this possible? How can he be so strong?"
In the Golden Dawn Tower, Zhou Cheng watched Wang Nan, who was still able to kill demons despite being surrounded by mid-level Xuan-class demons. His eyes were filled with jealousy.
He couldn't believe what he was seeing. He couldn't understand why there was such a vast difference in strength between two Spirit Realm cultivators.
