Chapter 1473 - Light of the Dao

"The rest of the primary god force? Under suppression?"

Although the God Horoscope's speech was unclear as it had only awakened its consciousness, Qin Nan still managed to grasp what it tried to tell him, leaving him with a confused expression.

"That's right, if you direct the force of the embryonic form of the Dao into your eyes, it will allow you to see the primary god force."

The God Horoscope said.

"Let me have a go."

Qin Nan immediately activated the blue-golden rune and directed its force into his left eye.

When he glanced forward again, there was another giant, heart-shaped golden crystal in the darkness.

Inside the crystal were wisps of primary god force that looked like mists, a total of one hundred and twenty-three of them.

Their auras were purer than the God Horoscopes that Qin Nan had first seen.

"One hundred and twenty-three wisps of primary god force, is this the remaining god force in the Canglan Continent?"

Qin Nan was stunned.

If that were the case, wouldn't that imply that after the God Horoscope Contest, only one hundred and twenty-three cultivators could achieve the Martial God Realm?

"In some way, that's indeed the case."

The God Horoscope explained, "You might be unaware, but the primary god force won't regenerate after the rest of it dissipates."

"In other words, since the God Ranking and Monarch Ranking were born, the primary monarch force and primary god force that every cultivator acquired all originated from them."

Qin Nan shuddered upon hearing this.

He finally understood why the God Ranking and Monarch Ranking were no match against the South-Heaven Gate even though they had control over the Monarch Horoscope Contest and the God Horoscope Contest.

The God Ranking and Monarch Ranking only had a limited supply of the primary force. The more Monarch Horoscopes and God Horoscopes they produced, the more it would weaken their own strength.

Most importantly, even though they had modified the rules of cultivation, forcing every cultivator to only achieve the Martial Monarch Realm and Martial God Realm through the horoscopes, it was because of this that they had to supply the horoscopes to the cultivators.

Achieving the Martial Monarch Realm and Martial God Realm was still the fundamental rule.

The God Ranking and Monarch Ranking were only a portion of the primary force, thus they were unable to modify the fundamental rules.

"Even though they had thoroughly modified the rules of cultivation of this world, they too had suffered a great loss from it—serves them right."

Qin Nan wore a cold grin.

"The reason we primary god force exist is to help Martial Monarchs achieve the Martial God Realm."

The God Horoscope's voice was filled with a hint of despair, "However, after the Monarch Ranking and God Ranking modified the rules of cultivation, we had no choice but to follow their rules. As a result, the cultivators have to compete with one another to acquire us."

Under the rules, they were forcibly refined by cultivators who were not qualified to become Martial Gods.

Besides that, the primary god force did not have their own consciousness initially.

Normally, under the normal rules of cultivation, every cultivator only needed to cultivate diligently to level up. They would eventually produce god force in their bodies and achieve the Martial God Realm.

However, under the current rules, they had awakened their own consciousness, thus they were tortured greatly by the process.

In the past, the nine Monarch Horoscopes did not tell the Monarch Ranking how Qin Nan had acquired the wisps of primary monarch force, as they were not willing to suffer further. On top of that, they did hope to see the birth of a real Martial Monarch.

"If Cultivator Qin Nan can insert the light of the Dao into them, once they become God Horoscopes, they would no longer be suppressed. They can choose the Martial Monarchs they think worthy and help them achieve the Martial God Realm."

The God Horoscope explained. It felt like its hollow eyes were staring at Qin Nan.

The other fourteen God Horoscopes reacted similarly. They were afraid that Qin Nan would disagree.

"I see, I'm willing to help."

Qin Nan agreed without hesitation, yet his eyes were filled with doubts as a thought crossed his mind, "But the blue-golden...the embryonic form of the Dao, can it really help the primary god force?"

In other words, the only way was to break free from the rules of cultivation that the Monarch Ranking and God Ranking had modified.

"That's right, the light emitted by the embryonic form of the Dao can awaken their consciousness, allowing them to resist when they are being refined into God Horoscopes."

The God Horoscope's voice was full of surprise, but it quickly blurted out as it recalled something, "And you don't need to worry, the Spirit of the God Ranking can't see anything that's happening here."

"Alright."

Qin Nan nodded and activated the blue-golden rune.

Rays of blue-golden glow left the golden crystal and entered the other crystal. The light shone on the primary god force.

The wisps of primary god force immediately shuddered, as if some force inside them was evolving.

"Cultivator Qin Nan, we have a little request. We hope that during the God Horoscope Contest, you can acquire one, or more of us. We would like to help you..."

The God Horoscope spoke once again.

It was not saying it because Qin Nan had helped them, but the fact that they were willing to help someone who still managed to achieve the Martial Monarch Realm on their own in the current era.

However, since the God Horoscope Contest had already begun, they were bound by the rules. Otherwise, they would have entered Qin Nan's body straight away.

An unexpected change suddenly took place.

BANG!

A great explosion took place above. Giant chains with auras of primary force lunged forward and wrapped around twenty of the God Horoscopes.

AH!

The twelve God Horoscopes immediately cried out in agony.

"Spirit of the God Ranking...how...how dare you modify the rules again, to only leave three God Horoscopes in the God Horoscope Contest!"

The God Horoscope snapped furiously.

Each God Horoscope Contest would have at least seven to eighteen God Horoscopes.

However, to its surprise, the Spirit of the God Ranking was willing to go so far.

"Only three God Horoscopes?"

Qin Nan's eyes turned cold.

The Spirit of God Ranking was obviously picking on him.

He had achieved the Martial Monarch Realm by himself and had also acquired the blue-golden rune. He would need at least six God Horoscopes to fully achieve the Martial God Realm.

"These chains, can the embryonic form of the Dao or Heaven-Shattering Saber break them?"

Qin Nan asked swiftly after taking a deep breath.

They had to think of a way to overcome the situation.

"These chains are formed by primary force. You only have the embryonic form of the Dao, the light of the Dao is far from enough to break the chains..."

The God Horoscope shook its head.

"With mine, it would be enough."

Empress Feiyue's cold voice appeared.
