Chapter 897 - The Four-Sided Serene Heavenly Pillar
As everyone knew, the badges of Shadow City were categorized into seven different grades, which were red, orange, yellow, green, blue, blue, and purple. Only a handful of people in the entire Middle Continent were able to acquire a purple badge. [Quick update, the website is refreshing with few advertisements.

They were either top geniuses or had formidable backgrounds, such as Emperor Wu's son, the Patriarch's son, etc.
This fatty was an unknown person, thus he was most likely not a top genius on the Monarch Ranking, but someone with a formidable background.
"This … this big brother … we … we are really sorry just now … please forgive us …" That young man was so scared that his soul almost left his body. He even started to stutter when he spoke.
Young Master Scarface's forehead was covered in cold sweat too.
"Piss off, watch where you're going next time."
Sima Kong wore an indifferent expression as he waved his fleshy hand in an imperious manner.
The two immediately left the place as if they had just been pardoned, and soon disappeared from the street.
It was highly possible that after this incident, this pair of master and servant would not dare to act recklessly in Shadow City.
"Fatty, let me ask you, where did you steal the purple badge?" Qin Nan immediately transmitted his voice to Sima Kong.
"What do you mean steal? I'm a thief, the successor of the Emperor of Thieves, a thief with principles! " Sima Kong rolled his eyes, before he said proudly, "I'm not trying to brag, but apart from fighting, is there anything I can't do in this world? I'm the one who forged the purple badge, and the Shadow Pagoda couldn't even find out the truth … "
"Forged?" Qin Nan was startled, before he exclaimed.
He could not help but admit that Sima Kong was quite impressive when it came to other things.
"Here, I sold one last time, so there's still one left. You can take it. It belongs to an expert of the Emperor Wu, who lives in seclusion in the mountains. His name is Wang Liang, and this purple token represents his successor. Sima Kong took out a Purple Order and handed it to Qin Nan.
Qin Nan immediately received the purple badge. With this purple badge, he might be able to use it in Shadow City.
"Aiya, now's the right time," Sima Kong glanced around and transmitted his voice, "Qin Nan, you know the map that changes fate, right? You should know about map-gambling, right? There are many places in Shadow City where map betting is possible. I believe that with your eye technique and my means, we should be able to win the bet … "
Qin Nan frowned.
He had read about map-gambling from the All-Knowing Scroll of the Middle Continent. It was a map specifically used to gamble on destiny-altering maps.
One had to know that a map that defied the heavens and changed one's fate, before one went to the place indicated on the map, no one knew what kind of dangers there would be or what kind of fortuitous encounters there would be.
As such, some people would collect maps in bulk and sell them at the same price.
Once a cultivator bought a map, there were two ways to verify it. The first way was to check it out in person. The second way was to drip a drop of the Blue Godly Liquid on the map. The brighter the glow, the stronger the drop, the better the fortunate encounter it contained.
That being said, the Blue Godly Liquid only had a thirty percent success rate, and most cultivators would not choose the Blue Godly Liquid, as it would attract the attention of many cultivators.
"My eye-technique is called Insight, but it doesn't seem to have much to do with map-gambling." Qin Nan said after a slight ponder.
"Hehe, that's what you don't understand. Why would a rare treasure like the Blue Godly Liquid have a thirty percent success rate, and why would it reveal the fortunate encounter of a map? It's because any map that contains destiny-altering fortunate encounters would be stained with the karma of the Heavens and Earth. The stronger the fortunate encounter, the stronger the karma … "
Sima Kong let out a laugh, before his eyes flickered as he said, "I have something that will allow your eye-technique to observe the Karma of the Heavens and Earth. That being said, it's only possible if your eyes are strong enough. Otherwise, you will be completely blind."
This was the reason why Sima Kong had to ask Qin Nan for help.
The reason being that only Qin Nan's eyes met his requirements.
"Oh?"
Qin Nan glanced at Sima Kong in astonishment.
He did not expect this guy to have such a forbidden technique.
"Let's put the map-gambling aside for now." Qin Nan pondered for a moment before saying, "I'm here mainly to collect some important information from the Shadow Pagoda."
Map-Gambling would only earn him Monarch Crystals.
Besides, the fatty's trick would be limited in some way, thus it would not be that outstanding.
For Qin Nan, it was more important to accumulate the force of the Heavens and Earth.
"Looking for information?" Sima Kong pondered for a while before saying, "The information of the Shadow Pagoda is quite unique. You won't be able to find it just by spending Monarch Crystals. You'll have to be acknowledged by them first. Besides, it doesn't matter how formidable your background is. It all depends on your capabilities. Come, let's head to the Shadow Pagoda first."
"Sure!"
Qin Nan nodded. He was familiar with the rules of the Shadow Pagoda.
He would have to observe it on the spot to see how it worked.
The two of them quickly made their way to the center of the city. Before long, they arrived at the towering black pillar that rose from the ground of Shadow City.
"Mm? This is … "
Qin Nan's eyes glistened.
As he stood in front of the black pillar, for some reason, he could feel a formless energy being emitted from it. It was as if chains had wrapped around his entire body.
"Qin Nan, this is the Four-Sided Giant Heavenly Pillar, one of the two cornerstone artifacts of the Shadow Pagoda. It has surpassed the level of a Monarch Weapon, and has reached the level of a half-Godly Weapon." Sima Kong stared at the giant black pillar with flames burning in his eyes, "With this pillar, it's impossible for Emperor Wu experts to force their way in."
"The Four-Sided Giant Heavenly Pillar, huh?"
Qin Nan mumbled to himself before taking a deep breath and encapsulating his body with the force of the Martial Ancestor.
He felt uneasy as the force of the rare artifact encapsulated his body.
After getting rid of the strange feeling, the two followed the crystal path and entered the first-floor of the Four-Sided Giant Heavenly Pillar.
It was rare to see cultivators outside the Giant Heavenly Pillar, but as soon as they entered the first-floor, they could hear a great commotion.
"What's going on? Why isn't the information here yet? "
"I've been queuing here for three hours! Is it really that difficult to gather information? It's not like I'm not paying you! "
"Ask your elders to come out! This is ridiculous! "
"Damn it, it's the same thing again!"
"… …"
Almost all of these voices were cursing and swearing.
Besides, Qin Nan could tell that most of the cultivators in the hall were in the Martial Ancestor Realm. Only the disciples of the Shadow Pagoda were in the Martial Sacred Realm.
"Hehe, the Shadow Pagoda is such a weird place. It doesn't matter how rich you are, or how strong your cultivation is, as long as you're not acknowledged by them, it's all for nothing …" Sima Kong's eyes flickered as he glanced at the cursing cultivators.
Selling information was indeed a great way to earn money. Wouldn't he be rich if he managed to steal the All-Knowing Orb from the Shadow Pagoda?
"Hello, is there anything I can help you with?"
