Normally.
If a cultivator were to provoke other sects!
They would have definitely been surrounded and attacked by now!
But it was different now!
Although many people looked at Chen Nan with anger in their eyes!
Everyone knew that he had broken through nine challenges and defeated nine mountain guarding elders!
He possessed terrifying strength!
Anyone who rashly attacked him would surely perish!
"You all truly disappoint me!"
Following a cold voice.
Hua Zun appeared before everyone, riding a red-maned fiery tiger!
Second Elder Hua Yan and Fan Ce followed closely behind him!
"Greetings, Sect Master!"
All the disciples of the Hua Shan Sword Sect bowed in salute!
Even the nine mountain guarding elders paid their respects to him!
The Great Elder spoke, "We are not as skilled as him, please punish us, Sect Master!"
"Do you truly think I cannot see that you did not intend to kill him?" Hua Zun said coldly, yet he could do nothing to the nine mountain guarding elders, as they had already existed when he was young.
The Great Elder replied, "This brat came here only to seek justice, and did not slaughter Cang Yun Peak. According to the rules, we have no right to take his life!"
Hua Zun said coldly, "That rule should also be changed. From now on, anyone who harbors hostility towards my Hua Shan Sword Sect disciples will be killed without mercy!"
"Secondly, anyone who enters the mountain without my permission will be killed without mercy!"
He was as arrogant and domineering as ever!
The Great Elder bowed and said, "Sect Master, our Hua Shan Sword Sect is one of the three pillars of the cultivation world and has always been hospitable. Arbitrarily changing the rules will cause many unnecessary troubles!"
Hua Zun's eyes flashed with coldness, and he unleashed his boundless rage, "Are you trying to defy me?"
"This old man would not dare!" The Great Elder lowered his head.
"I will settle scores with you later!"
Hua Zun looked at Chen Nan, his killing intent undisguised, "Young man, do you know the consequences of offending my Hua Shan Sword Sect?"
Chen Nan met his gaze. Even though the other party's aura was like a dragon, he remained fearless. "I do not wish to be enemies with the Hua Shan Sword Sect. I only want to retrieve my warm jade and the head of Fan Ce to avenge my brother Tu Ba!"
He had only met Tu Ba once.
Yet, that person had repeatedly protected him!
And because he spoke a word of justice for him, he was killed by Fan Ce!
At that moment, he had sworn in his heart!
To personally kill Fan Ce and avenge Tu Ba!
Hua Zun's expression was impassive. "Let alone Fan Ce being the deputy hall master of the Hua Shan Sword Sect's Law Enforcement Hall, even if he were an ordinary disciple, I would not hand him over to you!"
"As for the warm jade... such a treasure naturally belongs to the capable. Since it has fallen into the hands of my Hua Shan Sword Sect, it naturally means it does not belong to you!"
"Since it is something that does not belong to you, why should it be returned to you?"
Chen Nan said, "So, are you planning to force me to go on a killing spree?"
"Chen, don't be arrogant. My Hua Shan Sword Sect is not as weak as you imagine!" Fan Ce roared, his eyes filled with amusement.
Hua Zun said, "I heard you possess two spiritual artifacts. If you hand them over now, I can leave you with a complete corpse!"
The nine mountain guarding elders were all greatly shocked.
Spiritual artifacts were extremely rare. Even the Hua Shan Sword Sect only had two inherited treasures!
They had never imagined that Chen Nan alone possessed two spiritual artifacts!
Chen Nan replied, "Only if I die here in regret!"
"Since that is the case, then I shall grant your wish!" A cold glint flashed in Hua Zun's eyes. "Where are the Thirty-Six Heavenly Dipper generals?"
"Here!"
Following a unified and resonant voice like thunder!
Thirty-six cultivators clad in black armor appeared behind Chen Nan!
Each of them wore heavy armor and helmets, with no gaps in their attire!
The black armor shone with a dark light under the sun!
They also exuded a powerful aura of killing intent!
"Kill this brat!"
Hua Zun commanded!
When he learned that Chen Nan possessed two spiritual artifacts, he had harbored some concerns.
He had feared that Chen Nan might be a prodigy from a hidden family in some small world. However, after investigating Chen Nan's strength, his worries vanished!
He was merely a rogue cultivator from the mortal world!
Not enough to threaten him!
"Kill!"
The cry of killing rent the air!
The Thirty-Six Heavenly Dipper generals drew the sharp blades at their waists!
The dark black long swords and their armor were forged from the finest meteoric iron!
This type of armor could ignore many magical attacks!
And its defensive capabilities were exceptionally terrifying!
It could even withstand attacks from low-grade spiritual artifacts!
The thirty-six men formed a circle and attacked Chen Nan!
At this moment!
Chen Nan seemed to have transformed into a lone lamb, surrounded by a pack of wolves!
However.
He was not flustered at all!
The Gravity Technique covered a hundred-meter radius!
As he had predicted, these people, wearing heavy armor, had their speed slowed by the Gravity Technique!
His true energy surged within him!
Like war drums beating!
"Die!"
He punched someone in the chest!
Although he successfully sent the opponent flying, his fist was already bloody and bruised!
Regrettably!
The person who was sent flying sprang up like a carp, seemingly unharmed!
"Chen Nan, this is just futile!" Hua Yan sneered, "Although this armor is not a spiritual artifact, it was crafted by a master refiner thousands of years ago. Even if your fists are comparable to spiritual artifacts, you cannot kill them!"
"Is that so?"
Chen Nan refused to believe it.
He formed hand seals, and the Blazing Heaven Flames instantly engulfed the armored cultivators!
Fire could heat metal objects, and he wanted to incinerate these people directly!
However.
Despite the surging flames, these individuals remained unharmed!
Upon closer inspection, runes flickered on their armor!
"Could it be that there are miniature formations on this armor?"
Chen Nan's eyes lit up with fervor. The more he looked at the armor, the more he liked it!
He could definitely take this armor back!
Just then!
A cultivator appeared behind him and punched his shoulder!
"Scram!"
Chen Nan's voice boomed like thunder, and blood surged within him. He kicked the attacker dozens of meters away!
Crack!
He forcibly reset his dislocated arm and channeled his true energy to repair the injured meridians!
Although he had taken a punch!
He was unharmed!
"Your physique is indeed terrifying, but today you are destined to die!" Hua Zun said indifferently. He did not believe Chen Nan could withstand the encirclement of the Thirty-Six Heavenly Dipper generals!
"This armor is indeed powerful, but the people wearing it are very weak!" Chen Nan grinned. He clenched his fist in mid-air.
The pale golden Blazing Heaven Furnace appeared in his hand!
Golden light reflected his handsome face!
At this moment, he was like a god descending, grabbing one leg of the Blazing Heaven Furnace with one hand and ferociously smashing it towards an approaching cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage!
Boom!
A resonant impact suddenly rang out.
The strong cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage was sent flying hundreds of meters. He twitched a few times after landing on the ground and then lost his breath.
Silence fell over the entire scene!
Everyone's eyes widened, clearly not expecting Chen Nan to have killed one of the Thirty-Six Heavenly Dipper generals!
"He died just like that?" Chen Nan looked at Hua Zun in disbelief. "Why are their powers so weak?"
