Chapter 1960 - Deadly Situation
After Qin Nan left, he decided to go to the twenty-fourth Sacred Area of the Heavens and Earth after a brief ponder.
It would be best if he had the chance to return to the Secondary Lower Realm during the trial.
Qin Nan took a glance at the map and turned into a ray of light flying into the distance.
Two hours later, he arrived at a vast ocean.
An ancient blue stone bridge stood above the waves leading straight into a white mist. It was difficult to peek into the mist even with eye-techniques.
Several palaces floated on both sides of the bridge with various glow. Cultivators were continuously flying into the palaces from the distance.
Meanwhile, many cultivators were going to the bridge from the palaces before vanishing into the mist.
Every cultivator below the Nine Heavens Supreme Realm was allowed to enter any of the seventy-two Sacred Areas of the Heavens and Earth.
Therefore, in addition to the Peerless Rulers, many Heaven Immortals and Earth Immortals would also visit them to try out their luck.
Qin Nan was about to make his move when he suddenly felt a strange feeling rising in his heart. It felt like someone was watching him in the dark.
“Qin Nan, something isn’t right about this place…” Doom said.
His senses were a lot sharper after he achieved the perfect stage of the Dao Realm.
Qin Nan nodded. He immediately activated the Immortal Eyes of the Divine God of Battle.
He was unable to see through the mist covering the bridge, but he did not notice anything out of ordinary from the palaces and the surroundings. He could tell the cultivation levels of the cultivators in the palaces too.
There was no Nine Heavens Supreme around. Even the number of Peerless Rulers was incredibly low.
Qin Nan slightly frowned.
He and Doom both felt something strange about the place, like something was going to happen for sure.
Yet why couldn’t he pick up anything?
Could it be that whatever was hiding in the dark was significantly beyond the level of his eye-technique?
Qin Nan suddenly noticed energy ripples surging from a palace that was covered in carvings of a strange grass like waves.
Qin Nan was startled.
“Unstoppable Step!”
He thoroughly unleashed his immortal force without any hesitation, turning himself into a ray of light. He flew in the opposite direction at a remarkable speed.
“Sky-Sealing Tower!”
An imperious voice exploded deep in the sky.
Following it, a pitch-black, seven-floored ancient tower over three hundred sixty zhang, resembling a blossoming lotus appeared from the clouds. Its golden brilliance spread over a distance of a hundred thousand li away.
Qin Nan was within its range still.
“Holy crap!” Doom cursed.
Their enemy had obviously come prepared. Even though the Sky-Sealing Tower was an ancient Dao Weapon, its power was still remarkable, capable of turning the rift within a hundred thousand li into a world surrounded by hard indestructible walls.
Qin Nan’s eyes glittered. A strong battle intent burst out of his body. He was about to break through the cage with brute force.
“Don’t even bother wasting your energy! You are already a turtle in a jar!” a faint voice sounded from the rift.
Following it, it was as if a veil in the sky above the palaces was lifted, revealing three enormous ancient vessels of various shapes covered in Dao glows.
Each ancient vessel had a few dozen cultivators. Most of them were Peerless Rulers.
On top of it, when Qin Nan glanced at a hunchback old man on the first vessel, a smiling middle-aged man on the second vessel, and a man in a black robe on the third vessel, his heart sank immediately.
These were three Nine Heavens Supremes!
“Mumen Sect? Shidao Tribe? Ancient Taboo? Why are they here? And they even sent Nine Heavens Supremes too!”
“Isn’t that young man Xiang Yuansheng, an Exceptional Genius of the Shidao Tribe?”
The cultivators in the palaces were astounded by the sight.
“Doom, those three Nine Heavens Supremes are only in the early stage! We’ll make our moves at the same time and…”
Qin Nan transmitted his thought. He looked at the young man on the first vessel with short purple hair and said, “Xiang Yuansheng? How did you find me?”
Xiang Yuansheng smiled, “It’s not difficult to track you down. You are from the Secondary Lower Realm, so it’s very likely that you’ll choose the twenty-fourth Sacred Area of the Heavens and Earth.”
The three Nine Heavens Supremes moved and arrived a hundred zhang away from Qin Nan following the sentence.
Qin Nan and Doom’s heart sank once again.
It was no longer possible for them to use the element of surprise to break out of the Sky-Sealing Tower, unless they were able to defeat the three Nine Heavens Supremes in the early stage.
“The Ancient Taboo wants you dead, but the Shidao Tribe and Mumen Sect think otherwise.”
“Therefore, if you want to live, you will tell us which of the Immortals is your master.”
Xiang Yuansheng cracked his fingers and said, “Qin Nan, I believe you are a wise man. You know what the best option is.”
The Nine Heavens Supreme of the Mumen Sect harrumphed while the Nine Heavens Supreme of the Ancient Taboo’s hollow eyes erupted into flames. It was difficult to tell what they were thinking.
“Qin Nan?”
“The Strongest Immortal, Qin Nan is here?”
“No wonder those three factions have shown up!”
The cultivators in the palaces were dumbfounded. Many immediately took out their badges and relayed the information to their factions.
Qin Nan was not only the Strongest Immortal, but he was also a successor of the Immortals too. It was important to update their sects and ancient tribes on anything they had learned about Qin Nan.
Qin Nan frowned.
He would be in great danger if he was to expose his relationship with the Divine God of Battle, but the three factions were obviously not going to let him go easily. He would have to use the Tree of Dao to stand a chance against them.
But then, they would know he had practiced twelve different Arts of Dao Seeking…
“Qin Nan, you have three breaths to make up your mind! If you don’t tell us the truth, I will have to force you to!” the Nine Heavens Supreme of the Mumen Sect grunted.
Qin Nan’s eyes erupted into flames upon hearing the words.
He would never compromise by telling them the Divine God of Battle’s identity or letting them decide his fate!
The only option left was to fight!
“Sky Taihuang: Dao-Jolting Saber Art!”
Qin Nan immediately made his move. The Dao-Melting Immortal Flames surged at the three Nine Heavens Supremes at a shocking pace while he fired countless saber intents.
The three Nine Heavens Supremes, Xiang Yuansheng, and the rest of the cultivators on the vessels and in the palaces were stunned.
They did not expect Qin Nan to strike first under the circumstances!
Was he trying to get himself killed?
