The Ancient Taboo
As soon as he finished speaking, a spell formation appeared beneath the feet of every cultivator in the small space, teleporting them out of this place.
A formation appeared under Qin Nan's feet too.
"Who would have thought an hour would pass so quickly."
Qin Nan's battle intent dissipated. He wore a pitiful look. He felt like the battle with the three Peerless Geniuses had only just begun.
The three Peerless Geniuses must have something stronger up their sleeves.
Whoosh!
Not long after, he was teleported out of the place too.
"Is that …"
Qin Nan was immediately attracted by his surroundings as soon as he landed on the ground.
He found himself standing in a huge hall.
The hall was built with some kind of ancient jade. His Divine Sense was unable to peek through it. It was emitting a gentle glow.
Around the hall were a few hundred statues.
The statues consisted of men and women. They were all different, yet each of them was extremely lifelike, as if they were real people.
In addition to it, when Qin Nan glanced at them, the statues felt like they had come alive. They were emitting shocking auras. Even the god force in Qin Nan's body shuddered.
"The statues here are some of the seniors of the Forbidden Taboo Sect, and some of them are cultivators of other factions. They are placed here because they once fought against the Ancient Taboo."
An imperious voice echoed in the hall. An illusionary figure over five zhang tall wearing a long robe made of dragon scales walked out from the hall.
Even though the figure was not unleashing any aura, Qin Nan instinctively sensed a terrifying aura from it.
"Fought against the Ancient Taboo?"
Qin Nan's eyes flickered with astonishment. He had heard about the Ancient Taboo from the Beast Hide Drawing.
"In the boundless Nine Heavens Immortal Realm, many factions are fighting against the Ancient Taboo. The Forbidden Taboo Sect is one of them."
The illusionary figure said.
"I see, but what exactly is this Ancient Taboo?"
Qin Nan was confused.
Judging from the Beast Hide Drawing's reaction, it seemed like he was quite intimidated by the Ancient Taboo too. He did not dare to provoke it.
"It's like a human, yet not a human. It's like a spirit, yet not a spirit. It's a peculiar existence that transcends all living beings. You will understand everything about the Ancient Taboo in the future. "
The illusory figure smiled faintly. "Now, let's get back to the topic. Since you've won this battle, you can become our Forbidden Taboo Disciple. Are you willing?"
"Of course, our Forbidden Taboo Sect was destroyed thousands of years ago."
The last sentence seemed to be a reminder to Qin Nan.
"Isn't the competition divided into the Heavenly God Group and the Earth God Group? Now that I've won, how can I get the inheritance directly?"
Qin Nan asked instead of agreeing to it.
"According to the original plan, the inheritance of our Reverse Taboo Sect would not appear in the Liuhuang Battlefield for the next five hundred years. However, a forbidden item in your body awakened me in advance. "
On the face of the illusory figure, two pitch-black flames suddenly surged out and condensed into a pair of fiery eyes. He stared straight at Qin Nan, as if he wanted to see through Qin Nan's body.
Through the headless man, he had seen everything that had happened in the previous battle.
He was certain when he saw Qin Nan recovering from half of his injuries in an instant.
"It's indeed the reason behind everything!"
Qin Nan was startled. He quickly asked, "Senior, do you know anything about it?"
Even though the White-Blue Flower was not a threat to him, and was actually very useful to him, he still wanted to know its origin.
"I'm sorry, every forbidden item is unique. Even I don't know anything about it."
The illusionary figure shook his head and said calmly, "I can only tell you that since you have the forbidden item, it's only a matter of time before the Ancient Taboo sets its eyes on you."
"It's the reason why I'm giving you the succession."
That being said, there was something else that he did not tell Qin Nan.
The Forbidden Taboo Sect still had something that he would not give to Qin Nan.
After all, they still had people they were looking for.
Qin Nan nodded upon hearing this.
He was not too interested in the Ancient Taboo, but he would have to figure out the secret of the White-Blue Flower in the future.
"If the Forbidden Taboo Sect doesn't have any restrictions or requirements, I'm willing to accept it."
Qin Nan said with a stern look.
"Of course not, but when you shatter the Ancient Taboo one day, I hope you can break these statues into pieces too."
The illusionary figure let out a sigh as if he had recalled something.
"Not a problem."
Qin Nan agreed after a slight ponder.
"Qin Nan, after the Forbidden Taboo Sect was destroyed, I've refined the three heirloom arts and some extraordinary natural resources into the altar."
"Once you step onto the altar, you'll be granted the succession."
"Remember, before the Forbidden Taboo Seal is born, you must not open your eyes no matter what happens."
The illusionary figure reminded Qin Nan before waving his hand. An ancient altar over five zhang tall and nineteen zhang long appeared in front of the hall.
Various immortal glows flickered on the altar.
Qin Nan could sense a tremendous pure force deep inside the altar without using the Golden Eyes of the Divine God of Battle.
"Senior, thanks."
Qin Nan took a deep breath and brought his fists together at the illusionary figure.
He didn't know what kind of power the three techniques of the Forbidden Taboo Sect had. He only knew that the pure power was enough to make his cultivation undergo a tremendous change.
"By the way, senior, I have a friend in the Heaven God Group …"
Qin Nan recalled the Blood-Eye Earth God. Judging from the pure force alone, it would take him quite some time to absorb it.
"Don't worry, I've arranged a small succession for him. He's currently cultivating in seclusion."
The illusionary figure said with a smile.
"Alright."
Qin Nan did not say anything further. He stepped onto the altar and sat down with his legs crossed.
BANG!
In the blink of an eye, boundless energy surged out.
Each force was like an ancient beast surging into his body, granting his flesh and the god force in his body tremendous benefits.
"Divine Battle Spirit!"
Qin Nan let out a groan as a giant blue glow appeared behind him.
He would need a long time to cultivate in seclusion, thus he would not waste the chance to absorb the force of the Divine God of Battle.
"Is that …"
When the illusory figure saw this scene, it was as if he was struck by lightning. A wave of shock surged in his heart.
Even though he was not familiar with the blue glow, he was well aware of the significance of its aura.
He initially thought this Qin Nan was a disciple of a Nine Heavens Supreme, or an Exceptional Genius, but it seemed like Qin Nan's identity was a lot more terrifying than he had imagined.
