Chapter 1790 - Red Spider Lily Forest
Meanwhile, in the Land of Extraordinaries…
“That Feiyue is getting even prettier the stronger she becomes!” the Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor murmured.
However, even if he was given a hundred guts, he would not dare to chase after her anymore like he did in the past.
“Speaking of which, I finally know why Qin Nan’s luck has always been so impressive!”
The Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor’s eyes flickered with envy.
The concept of a person’s luck was ambiguous. No cultivators were able to fully comprehend it, but everyone knew it truly existed.
Either someone like Qin Nan with a shocking background, or the geniuses and experts were said to have unmatchable luck compared to ordinary people. They were difficult to kill too.
That being said, the Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor was only a little jealous of Qin Nan. It did not matter how impressive a person’s luck was, what mattered the most was still the efforts that the person had put in.
“I finally understand why Cultivator Qin Nan felt somewhat familiar to me. It turns out that he has the same character as a brother that I’ve lost.”
Yuanji exclaimed with his palms together. He said firmly, “I’ve decided. From today onward, I’ll be following Qin Nan and treat him as my brother.”
The Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor almost vomited blood after hearing it.
Could this bald donkey be more shameless!?
He had decided to stick with Qin Nan clearly because the man was the successor of the Fifth Immortal with an extraordinary background. He knew staying by Qin Nan’s side would grant him great benefits, thus the decision to follow Qin Nan, yet he acted as if he was dignified.
“Oh Yuanji, it’s not necessary to say things like that. Everyone here is Qin Nan’s brother! As the saying goes, brothers of the same mind could even cut through metal. We’ll be staying together for the rest of our journey here in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm!” the Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor said sternly.
“Eight Brilliance is right. Even though Qin Nan’s ident.i.ty is still insignificant compared to mine, I agree that he’s a pretty nice guy,” Xiu Shenliang said.
Doom, Blood-Eye, and Ling Lanlan immediately looked at him disdainfully.
However, Doom and Ling Lanlan’s eyes were glittering too as they were immersed in their thoughts.
Meanwhile, after Qin Nan was done grilling the fish, Empress Feiyue flung her sleeves to put the fish away and vanished into thin air without saying a word. She only left a faint fragrance behind.
Qin Nan shrugged and returned to the Land of Extraordinaries.
Although the Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor, Yuanji, and the others had started to refine the artifacts, the atmosphere still felt a little strange to Qin Nan.
Qin Nan shook his head. He did not overthink it. He sat down with his legs crossed and focused on cultivating the Arts of Dao Seeking.
Time gradually pa.s.sed. Three days were gone in the blink of an eye.
In these three days, many rare phenomena had occurred in the Six Unity Forbidden Land. A lot of factions and cultivators immediately made their way to the Six Unity Forbidden Land after smelling something fishy about it.
The Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor and the others continued to refine the artifacts. They finally made some progress. The artifacts began to show some reactions.
Xiu Shenliang had achieved the Earth Immortal Realm too, while Blood-Eye’s cultivation had reached the third-layer Earth Immortal Realm.
“Qin Nan, we’ve reached the Northern Realm,” Ling Lanlan suddenly transmitted her thought to Qin Nan.
The Northern Realm was one of the four realms in the Fourth Small Immortal Realm. It was the closest place to the Six Unity Forbidden Land.
Qin Nan opened his eyes and nodded. He immediately woke the Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor and the others up and asked Ling Lanlan to stop at a remote place. They set up some forbidding formations and left the Land of Extraordinaries under Ling Lanlan’s complaining look.
The Ten Thousand Layer Immortal PaG.o.da had given Qin Nan the location of the Supreme Heart Fruit. Therefore, it was very likely that the Ten Thousand Layer Immortal PaG.o.da would join hands with the other factions to hunt them down after what happened recently.
Even though the Land of Extraordinaries had shrunk by more than a few dozen times, it was still quite ma.s.sive. Its location would easily be exposed, thus they decided to let Ling Lanlan stay as a safety precaution.
Qin Nan and the others traversed the immortal mountains rapidly.
The Northern Realm was similar to the Eastern Realm. It was mostly made of mountains, forests, and rivers. It was rare to see places like the Sacred Kingdom here.
Furthermore, many Nine Heavens Supremes and Peerless Rulers had come to the Northern Realm for the Six Unity Forbidden Land. As a result, they had claimed most of the fortunate encounters that were available.
The number of cultivators significantly reduced too.
Five hours were gone fairly quickly. Qin Nan and his crew arrived at their destination following the map.
The huge trees that they had seen along the journey had disappeared. They were replaced by dark red flowers over ten zhang tall that were shaped like dragon claws. The blossomed flowers spread to the west like a fiery red ocean.
Xiu Shenliang and Blood-Eye felt a great chill running down their spine upon witnessing the sight even though they had achieved the Earth Immortal Realm.
The flowers were known as the red spider lilies.
In Buddhism, it was referred to as the Devil Flower, the h.e.l.l Flower.
The sea of red spider lilies was relatively famous in the Northern Realm. It was one of the nineteen ancient ruins that were relatively famous in the realm. The Red Spider Lily Capital first appeared around two thousand years ago.
“The Immortal Blessing resource I’m looking for is located deep within the Red Spider Lily Capital. I believe it might be quite dangerous to go inside it.”
“I owe you all one after this,” Qin Nan said.
“Cultivator Qin Nan, aren’t we brothers? Why are you being so courteous with us?”
“He’s right! Your problem is my problem too!”
The Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor and Yuanji said firmly.
“Why are they two behaving like this?”
Qin Nan was stunned for a moment. He expressed his grat.i.tude before entering the Red Spider Lily Forest.
The red spider lily was called the Demon Flower and h.e.l.l Flower for a reason. They were continuously emanating a faint will influencing the minds of people nearby and bringing them fear.
The will gradually became stronger as they went deeper into the place.
Time gradually pa.s.sed. Two hours later, Qin Nan and his crew had arrived deep inside the Red Spider Lily Forest. The s.p.a.ce under the dark red flowers was no longer vacant. They had discovered several dilapidated structures.
The Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor and Yuanji briefly looked around and lost their interest. Most of the loots had been taken away. They did not find anything valuable.
“Mm? Wait a second, there’s a terrifying illusion formation ahead!”
Yuanji halted in his track. Buddhist runes flickered in his eyes as he exclaimed, “It’s no ordinary formation. Even a Peerless Ruler would be trapped inside it for more than ten days…mm? Someone has broken through the formation!?”
“Judging from its appearance, it only happened around three to seven hours ago.”
Qin Nan’s expression s.h.i.+fted upon hearing it.
It meant someone that was at least as strong as a Peerless Ruler had entered the area before them.
