Chapter 1796 - Flesh of the Sacred Spirit
Meanwhile, the other end of the Feiyue Immortal Bridge…
“What now?”
Flames were burning in Immortal Emperor Zhugang’s eyes as he wore a displeased look.
Their group consisting of ten Peerless Rulers, with four that had reached the peak Peerless Ruler Realm had failed to stop a few Earth Immortals in front of so many cultivators. It was utterly embarra.s.sing.
“If we go after them into the place, we only have three-tenths of a chance to catch them. Besides, the rare phenomena are expected to happen in a day or two. I’m afraid the Nine Heavens Supremes wouldn’t allow us to enter either since it might trigger some unknown behaviors.”
Immortal Emperor Jiangjue said after some hesitation. It was clear what his intention was.
“We’ll wait until the rare phenomena to happen before making our moves again. It’s only going to be a day or two. May I ask the Emperors Ancient Island and the Ten Thousand Layer Immortal PaG.o.da to keep an eye on the Realm of Chaos; let us know if any experts of the Sky Taihuang Sect show up,” Immortal Emperor Guqing said.
Qin Nan had already reforged his Dao Foundation, thus his status in the Sky Taihuang Sect would surely skyrocket too. If the Sky Taihuang Sect knew Qin Nan was in great danger, there was no way the people of the Sky Taihuang Sect were just going to sit and watch.
The other Immortal Emperors nodded in agreement. They returned to the ancient cities.
“Let’s go.”
Long Xuanling’s eyes glittered. He transmitted a thought to the cultivators in the black robes.
Meanwhile, the outer area of the Six Unity Forbidden Land…
Qin Nan and his crew had just set their foot on the utterly mysterious land, but they already sensed a magnificent force suppressing their cultivation.
Their cultivation had dropped by five layers, and their Divine Sense was restricted to a range of ninety-nine zhang. Even Qin Nan’s Immortal Eyes of the Divine G.o.d of Battle and Blood-Eyes’ eye-technique were limited to a range of nine hundred and ninety-nine zhang too.
Qin Nan and his crew were overjoyed. It meant they had a great chance to run away even if Immortal Emperor Jiangjue and the others were still pursuing them.
“Mm?”
Qin Nan slightly frowned.
The White-Blue Flower under the Ownerless Heaven Pattern in his Divine Sense was emitting faint glow.
In the past, the mysterious White-Blue Flower would remain still even when it was influencing the forbidden lands, Blessed Immortal Lands, and other places.
Why would it be emitting light now?
Was it a sign of how unusual this Six Unity Forbidden Land was?
“Forget it.”
Qin Nan shook his head to stop himself from overthinking it. He said to the Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor and the others, “I’ve just obtained a scroll from Meng Jiugong about the location of the Frost Soul and the Six Unity Immortal Jade.”
The grievance that the Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor was nursing dissipated immediately when he heard the words. His eyes glittered.
As expected of the successor of the Fifth Immortal!
There were endless benefits when he was with Qin Nan!
Qin Nan immediately peeked into the scroll and saw a map that was drawn with immortal force. It had clear indications of directions and the location of the Feiyue Immortal Bridge, allowing them to pinpoint their own locations.
Qin Nan took a closer look and immediately realized the map was referring to an area in the entire Six Unity Forbidden Land. It seemed to be referring to the outer area too, not too far from where they were currently. The map had markings on three specific spots.
“Come with me.”
Qin Nan flew forward; the others followed.
The Six Unity Forbidden Land was infamous across the entire Realm of Chaos; even Nine Heavens Supremes might die in it too. Qin Nan and his crew would not dare to lower their guard even when they were in the outermost area. They did not fly at their full speed.
Around half an hour later, Qin Nan and the others gradually slowed down.
They were getting closer to the first spot!
The excitement in the Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor’s eyes dissipated. It was replaced with a stern look.
They had seen a lot of corpses and bones along the way.
They also saw fifteen corpses of Heaven Immortals!
They were still at the outermost area of the Six Unity Forbidden Land. It was meant to be the safest.
And yet, even Heaven Immortals had died here, clearly indicating how dangerous and terrifying it was.
“We’re here.”
Qin Nan came to a stop.
In front of them were several ancient trees over a few dozen zhang tall. The trees were healthy and strong, with dense leaves.
“There’s nothing here?”
Xiu Shenliang scanned the area with a confused look.
He did not even see a single piece of treasure in the vicinity, let alone the Frost Soul and the Six Unity Immortal Jade.
Qin Nan, the Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor, and Yuanji ignored Xiu Shenliang’s grumbling. They exchanged glances with one another and nodded. They flicked their fingers and inserted a wisp of will into the ancient trees.
Lines began to surface on the trunks of the trees like waves. An entrance around six zhang tall and two zhang wide slowly appeared.
The place was encapsulated by an invisible formation. Normally, even Heaven Immortals would not notice it when they were pa.s.sing by.
Qin Nan and his crew might have overlooked it too if the spot was not marked on the map.
“This place is quite dangerous, allow me to lead the way!”
The Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor grinned and turned into a puff of demon smoke floating into the gate. Qin Nan and the others followed behind.
They immediately heard the Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor cursing as soon as they landed.
“Holy c.r.a.p, are they trying to set me up on purpose? I was so worried along the way, and they are pulling these tricks on me…”
Qin Nan’s heart sank a little. He quickly looked around and found them deep inside a cave over thirty zhang tall and eight zhang wide.
The wall toward the end of the cave had ice crystals around half the size of a palm with shocking intent.
On the other side of the wall were black jades around the size of a thumb with six mysterious runes emitting a strange presence.
These ice crystals and black jades must be the Frost Souls and Six Unity Immortal Jades.
However, even Blood-Eye could detect a mysterious force encapsulating the Frost Souls and Six Unity Immortal Jades.
In other words, these Six Unity Immortal Jades and Frost Souls were only half-completed.
It was utterly meaningless to retrieve them now. It explained why the Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor had burst out cursing.
Qin Nan was wearing an unpleasant look too.
There were only three spots that were marked on the map. If the first spot only had half-finished loots, would it be the same for the other two places too?
“Was that Meng Jiugong trying to set us up?” Qin Nan rubbed his forehead.
What were they supposed to do now?
“HAHA, what did I tell you? Ain’t I right that there’s some treasure here? It’s hidden by the formation…mm? Who are you guys?”
A voice suddenly appeared.
