Wan Xiao wore a disdainful gaze, "Qin Nan, do you seriously think I can't tell you're trying to provoke me?"

"But..."

He clenched his teeth and said, "I'll accept it!"

He did not think Qin Nan had any chance of becoming the strongest immortal.

As such, he was willing to accept the challenge, just so Qin Nan would give him kowtows.

"Very well."

Qin Nan nodded and grinned, "It's only a matter of time until I become the strongest immortal, meaning that you will eventually be my mount too."

"Why don't you come and be my mount now, just so I can experience it first."

Saying this, he slapped on Wan Xiao's before the beast could react.

Countless Dao Runes immediately spread across his enormous figure.

Meanwhile, Qin Nan landed on the back of the beast, with a strong sense of achievement.

"This is awesome!"

Qin Nan uttered, as if he had just fought an intense battle.

"Qin Nan, you..."

Wan Xiao simply felt like he was about to go mad as he collected his thoughts.

Be his mount now?

Just so he can experience it first?

Isn't this guy a Peerless Genius who has achieved the Minor Success Stage of the Dao Realm? How could he do something so shameless?

"I won't mistreat you either since you're willing to be my mount in advance. This Beast Statue is yours."

Qin Nan put two of the statues away, and gave the third to Wan Xiao.

The three Beast Statues were once Beast Immortals. Apart from formidable immortal intent and power, they also contained the arts of the beast tribe.

"Don't be angry, and don't even try to resist me, it's meaningless."

Qin Nan said with a serious look.

"You..."

Wan Xiao felt like he was going to vomit blood upon hearing the words.

Giving someone a slap, a reward, before threatening the person. Is he seriously treating him like a subordinate?

However, on second thought, Qin Nan was stating the truth too. Even if he risked his life and tried to fight back, it was somewhat meaningless too.

Qin Nan had already imprinted the Dao Runes on his body. Regardless of what capabilities he had, it simply meant he was under Qin Nan's control for the time being.

"Qin Nan, I can be your mount in advance, but you have to remember one thing, you are not allowed to tell the others who I am."

Wan Xiao withheld the rage in his heart and said, "And if you failed to become the strongest immortal in the end, you'll give me ten kowtows in front of the cultivators."

"Otherwise, I swear I'm going to get my revenge."

Qin Nan immediately nodded. It did not really make any difference, since they were already enemies to begin with.

"Xiao Wan, let's not waste our time further. We must leave and go to the deeper part of the Nine Dragon Mystical Realm now."

Qin Nan sat with his legs crossed.

"Let me alter my form first."

His enormous body began to emit wisps of G.o.dly glow, as the feathers grew longer, added with a hint of purple.

From afar, the creature no longer looked like a Golden-Winged Giant Peng, but a Purple-Golden G.o.dly Bird instead.

"One more condition, you can't call me Xiao Wan!"

Wan Xiao clenched his teeth. He extended his wings and flew out of the cave.

Lots of dragons were circling the lake.

The fights in the different caves had come to an end. Many cultivators had left the halls, and they were astounded when they saw the Purple-Golden G.o.dly Bird.

"Is...is this the Seven-Headed Battle Dragon you summoned?"

Wan Xiao could feel his face burning. He quickly found a topic.

Before Qin Nan could respond, he sensed seven faint murderous intents directed at him. He subconsciously lifted his gaze and saw the seven heads of the dragon glaring at him.

Wan Xiao immediately understood the reason behind it since he too was a beast. The Seven-Headed Battle Dragon was jealous because Qin Nan was riding him instead of it.

Wan Xiao could feel his lips twitching. He was forced to be a mount, and now, he had somehow infuriated the battle dragon too?

What was he supposed to do?

Wan Xiao shook his head. He beat his wings and continued on his way.

After learning that Qin Nan had a Seven-Headed Battle Dragon, he no longer needed the battle dragon he had summoned.

Time gradually pa.s.sed, three hours later, the two arrived in the inner part of the place.

Unlike the outer and middle parts, the rift in the inner part had a strong dragon Qi and pressure lingering in every corner.

Even though the cultivators had not seen anything, they could easily tell that there were nine shocking existence at the end of the place.

ROAR!

The Seven-Headed Battle Dragon uttered a roar as fourteen images showed up in front of Qin Nan.

"There are fourteen places with extraordinary loot in the inner area?"

Qin Nan and Wan Xiao frowned.

Normally, there would be more successions as they ventured deeper into the place.

Qin Nan soon came to a realization. It was very likely that the battle dragon's grade was not high enough, thus it could only detect a limited number of successions in the inner part.

"Qin Nan, I must tell you that many people have managed to summon a Seven-Headed G.o.dly Dragon, or even a Ten-Headed Immortal Dragon."

Wan Xiao took hold of the chance to ridicule Qin Nan, "With a higher-grade dragon leading the way, they must have found the better successions."

"If we don't head over now, we'll simply lose our chance of securing the valuable loot."

Even though it was unnecessary a piece of good news for him, he was more than willing to watch Qin Nan suffer.

"That's fine, we are going here."

Qin Nan pointed at one of the images.

The power of the White-Blue Flower had started to influence the Nine Dragon Mystical Realm. It was likely that some of the extraordinary successions would show up and trigger a rare phenomenon.

He could still discover where the successions were even without the battle dragon's guidance.

Whoos.h.!.+

Meanwhile, a great blast and a bright, black glow sprang into the sky in the distance ahead.

"Could it be an extraordinary succession?"

Wan Xiao was utterly dumbfounded. Did a succession really just show up when he has just finished mocking Qin Nan?

However, an unexpected change took place.

The black light that entered the clouds suddenly surged in all directions like a shocking calamity. Its speed was incredibly outstanding.

A few breaths later, the surroundings in the inner part of the Nine Dragon Mystical Realm changed completely. The sky was immersed in pitch-black darkness, as if they had entered the world of darkness.

On top of it, the dragon Qi and the strong aura had vanished, replaced by an eerie pressure.

The Seven-Headed Battle Dragon roared anxiously and waved its tail wildly.

Even Qin Nan and Wan Xiao felt like a heavy stone was pressing down on their heart. Their expressions sank all of a sudden.

The change to the surroundings was obviously a bad omen.

The two simultaneously recalled an ancient rumor that stated the Nine Dragon Mystical Realm was actually a conspiracy plotted by the ancient dragon tribe, allowing them to understand and kill the geniuses of the human tribe.
