Chapter 1750 - The Mysterious Forbidden Talisman
A purple-haired old man appeared. The Blood-Eye Human Immortal’s face turned pale white as he trembled.
A strong fear filled his heart.
He was only an insignificant Human Immortal. The only time he saw a Nine Heavens Supreme was during the Battle of the Strongest Immortal.
He even had to treat Earth Immortals with utter respect, let alone a Nine Heavens Supreme.
However, he clenched his teeth when he realized Qin Nan was beside him. He tried his best to calm down.
Qin Nan was startled.
He did not expect a Nine Heavens Supreme to show up so quickly.
“Oh copper mirror, what are you up to this time…”
Qin Nan was utterly confused.
Xu Lai had suddenly fallen out with him and tried to kill him after seeing the strange symbol.
Even though he would not believe the copper mirror was trying to set him up, he was no doubt in a pinch right now. He might have to use the Seal of the Divine G.o.d of Battle.
“Xu Lai, tell us everything that happened here,” one of the three Peerless Rulers said.
“Acknowledge!”
Xu Lai withdrew his thoughts and transmitted his voice to the three Peerless Rulers and Supreme Wuqiu, “Senior Supreme Wuqiu, and seniors, this Qin Nan is…”
He first explained Qin Nan’s ident.i.ty and everything that happened since he met him. Following it, he added, “But, he drew a Forbidden Talisman right at the end.”
“What? A Forbidden Talisman?” the three Peerless Rulers were startled.
The others might be unaware, but everyone above the Heaven Immortal Realm in the Ten Thousand Layer Immortal PaG.o.da knew a strange rule that they had been pa.s.sed down a few thousand years ago.
If they stumbled into anyone that drew the Forbidden Talisman, they had to kill the person at all costs regardless of their cultivation or background!
That being said, the Forbidden Talisman never showed up over the past few thousand years. Most people of the Ten Thousand Layer Immortal PaG.o.da a.s.sumed the rule to be none of their concern.
Supreme Wuqiu was stunned too. His lips twisted as he soon thought of something.
He would never come and intervene with the matter if he knew the details.
“Senior Supreme Wuqiu, if he’s able to draw the Forbidden Talisman, I shall kill him right away…”
The three Peerless Rulers collected their thoughts.
“That won’t be necessary.”
Supreme Wuqiu took a deep breath and interrupted the man. He glanced at Qin Nan and said, “Kid, if you don’t want to die, and if you still want what you are here for, come with me. Xu Lai, you too.”
“The rest can go now.”
Following it, the old man turned into a ray of light and entered the Ten Thousand Hall.
“What…what’s going on?”
The three Peerless Rulers, Xu Lai, and the Heaven Immortals were dumbfounded. They were clueless about why Supreme Wuqiu would behave like that.
“Senior Supreme Wuqiu has given the order. Let’s leave.”
Despite the confusion, the three Peerless Rulers had no choice but to obey the order. They emphasized Supreme Wuqiu’s words and flew into the distance. The Heaven Immortals left too.
“A favorable turn?”
Both Qin Nan and the Blood-Eye Human Immortal were surprised.
Xu Lai recovered from the shock and wore a weird expression. He said, “Qin Nan, you heard it too, Supreme Wuqiu is waiting for us.”
Qin Nan hesitated slightly before nodding at the Blood-Eye Human Immortal and followed Xu Lai to the hall.
Despite the doubts he was having, it did not seem like he had any other choice than meeting Supreme Wuqiu.
If he was not mistaken, it must part of the copper mirror’s plan.
“He’s fine?”
“Could it be that he has some formidable background?”
“Tsk tsk, interesting, it’s worth investigating.”
The cultivators were astounded. A few seemed quite intrigued by Qin Nan’s background.
They rarely saw anyone still unharmed after using violence in the Ten Thousand Layer Immortal PaG.o.da.
A few moments later, an ancient room inside the Ten Thousand Hall…
Supreme Wuqiu sat at the leading position while drinking an immortal tea with a straight face. It was difficult to read his mind.
“Show me the talisman,” he said calmly after some time.
Qin Nan glanced at Xu Lai and unleashed his immortal force to draw the talisman.
“It really is…”
Supreme Wuqiu twisted his lips. The last glimpse of hope in his heart had vanished.
“What’s wrong with the talisman?” Qin Nan could not help but ask.
“Anyone that is able to draw the Forbidden Talisman is an enemy of life and death of the Ten Thousand Layer Immortal PaG.o.da,” Xu Lai explained.
“Enemy…enemy of life and death?”
Qin Nan’s eyes slightly widened.
Why would the copper mirror teach him something like that?
“That is the case, but everything isn’t as simple as it seems.”
Supreme Wuqiu placed the cup of tea down and said, “Since it’s your first time drawing it, we won’t be fussed about it. We’ll also give you the information on where you can find the three Immortal Blessing resources you want, but in return, you will not draw the talisman again. How’s that?”
Even Xu Lai was dumbfounded by the words.
Not only were they not killing the person who drew the Immortal Talisman, but they were giving away the information of three Immortal Blessing resources too?
Those were three Immortal Blessing resources!
Even one of them was enough reason for many experts to risk their lives for.
“Are you being serious?” Qin Nan found it hard to believe.
“I’m a Nine Heavens Supreme, why would I bother lying to you? If you accept it, we’ll sign a contract here.”
Supreme Wuqiu wore a calm face, yet he was actually clenching his teeth in his heart.
How could he not feel anything after giving away the information of three Immortal Blessing resources for free?
That being said, he could only endure it and settle the matter as soon as possible.
“Then…”
Qin Nan was about to accept the offer.
To his surprise, a cold voice suddenly echoed in his mind, “Ask him for more things, three Immortal Blessing sacred healing medicines.”
Qin Nan was startled.
The Immortal Blessing sacred healing medicines were made of Immortal Blessing resources. Even though they were not as valuable as the resources, they were extremely rare too.
The copper mirror was asking him to negotiate for more benefits even though they were already giving away the information of three Immortal Blessing resources?
“What exactly is this Forbidden Talisman? Why is the copper mirror so confident?”
Qin Nan could not help but ask himself.
However, he did not overthink it. He quickly collected his thoughts. After all, he had always trusted the copper mirror. He said, “That’s fine, but you’ll have to give me three more Immortal Blessing sacred healing medicines.”
Xu Lai opened his mouth wide hearing the words. Even Supreme Wuqiu’s hand trembled. He almost spilled the cup of tea in his hand.
