Chapter 1835 - Blood Spear
Qin Nan quickly withheld the random thoughts in his mind and lifted his gaze.
Even though he had long witnessed how magnificent, astonis.h.i.+ng, and enormous the Gate of Heavens just like the cultivators that had entered the Six Unity Forbidden Land, his heart still pounded heavily when he observed it at such a close distance.
He was as tiny as an ant in front of the enormous gate. Meanwhile, it felt like the sceneries around him, including the sky and the ground had all disappeared.
Its presence was indescribably shocking, as if it was the only existence.
Qin Nan barely calmed his thoughts after some time.
The Gate of Heavens was currently open. There was nothing but whiteness behind it. He had no idea what kind of a terrifying place it would lead him to. He could only hear a series of dull explosions within it.
The auras of Nine Heaven Supremes and Peerless Rulers kept leaking out from it.
It was obvious that a bunch of strong authorities were fighting one another inside it.
“Tsk tsk, I wonder what level are the loots inside the gate!”
Doom smacked his lips with a strong urge to enter the gate.
However, he did not provoke Qin Nan to do anything reckless. Even though Supreme Rudao was with them, once they were involved in the battle, even the slightest force leaking out from it was enough to crush them into pieces.
They were like some ordinary people breaking a great taboo by prying on some immortals.
“By the way, Mengyao, there must be some shocking artifact deep inside the Gate of Heavens. I have come for the corpses alone, so I won’t be heading inside for now. You can just go ahead without us,” Qin Nan said as he thought of something.
Supreme Rudao had already done them a great favor by bringing them here. He would not want himself to be a burden to her.
“If you weren’t with me, why does it matter even if I acquired a fortune that would allow me to master the Dao?”
Supreme Rudao looked at Qin Nan in the eyes and said grimly. At that instant, the whole place suddenly fell silent as if the explosions and all sounds had completely vanished.
Qin Nan’s heart skipped a beat.
Supreme Rudao suddenly smiled. The grim look in her eyes dissipated and was replaced by a cheerful look, “How could I not accept husband’s kindness for being concerned of my wellbeing? Wait for me here, I’ll teach those guys a lesson.”
She stomped the ground and thoroughly unleashed her aura of the Nine Heavens Supreme Realm. A magnificent saber intent burst out from her body like a bright star as she went inside the gate.
“Qin Nan, this Supreme Rudao is behaving strangely. She only met you quite recently, yet she’s already treating you like this. You better keep an eye on her…”
Doom gave his piece of advice. He was still holding a grudge against Supreme Rudao after she rebuked him.
Qin Nan rolled his eyes. He did not treat Doom’s advice seriously.
Although Supreme Rudao’s att.i.tude was indeed a little unreasonable, but he still believed in her. If she really had any ulterior motives, she would have done whatever she was planning to do knowing how much stronger she was than him.
“Something must have shown up inside the Gate of Heavens. I bet a lot more Peerless Rulers are going to show up soon. We should find a place and hide,” Doom reminded.
Qin Nan nodded. He started searching around him and discovered an ancient tree around eight zhang wide with its trunk cracked apart. He immediately went inside the tree.
He did not have to do anything apart from waiting patiently.
Time gradually pa.s.sed. Two days were gone in the blink of an eye.
As Doom had mentioned, one after another Peerless Ruler arrived and entered the Gate of Heavens, including Immortal Emperor Zhugang and Immortal Emperor Guqing.
Even though a lot of fortunate encounters and successions had appeared in the inner sector of the Six Unity Forbidden Land, they were still incomparable to the loots inside the Gate of Heavens.
On top of that, Zhu Yan, Gu Xiaoyao, Lu Qingyin, and other Exceptional Geniuses had ventured deeper into the forbidden land too. They were not far from the Gate of Heavens.
The cultivators that had degenerated into killing puppets in the outer sector continued to venture deeper. Their auras gradually grew stronger as they carried on with their killings.
What worth mentioning was, the number of cultivators in the two ancient cities on the other end of the Feiyue Immortal Bridge kept on increasing every day still.
The mysterious Gate of Heavens and the news about the cultivators being turned into demons had long spread across the Realm of Chaos and a few other Small Immortal Realms.
Many factions were intrigued by the latest news. Even though it was too late for them to compete for the treasure, they still wanted to know what exactly had appeared in the Six Unity Forbidden Land.
Meanwhile, for the past few days, Qin Nan was comprehending the transformations in his body since he achieved the Heaven Immortal Realm.
Leaving the Dao-Melting Immortal Flames aside, he was mostly interested in the little accident that occurred when he became a Heaven Immortal; how the various Arts of Dao Seeking in his body was resonating with one another.
The Battle Dao Immortal Ma.n.u.script completely took over amid the resonance, followed by the Scriptures of Sky Taihuang. The rest of the Arts of Dao Seeking appeared to be inferior to them.
After all, he had only learned the general outlines of the other Arts of Dao Seeking.
“The core of the Dao glow in my body has nine colors, while its outside consists of seven colors. It feels a little odd, yet it’s not far from achieving the Greater Success Stage of the Dao Realm. When the time comes, I must strive to achieve the Perfect Stage of the Dao Realm…” Qin Nan thought.
For all cultivators, probing the Dao Realm, or achieving the Minor Success Stage or the Greater Success Stage of the Dao Realm would not improve their strength by much. Only when they achieved the Perfect Success Stage of the Dao Realm and refined their own Dao Crystals would their strength evolve tremendously, granting them unbelievable strength.
The only problem was, how was he supposed to achieve the Perfect Success Stage of the Dao Realm?
BANG!
Meanwhile, a shocking explosion took place. The whole place shook vigorously. Qin Nan’s ears started ringing loudly too.
“What was that?”
Qin Nan and Doom’s expression immediately s.h.i.+fted.
They kept hearing explosions of various volumes coming from the Gate of Heavens over the past few days, but none of them was as terrifying as the one that just occurred.
The eyes of Qin Nan and Doom widened soon after.
Their souls began to tremble in fear.
They had sensed an utterly terrifying presence bursting out of the Gate of Heavens, as if it was going to devour and crush everything it came into contact with.
Following it, the whole place became restless like boiling water.
Another piercing sound came from the Gate of Heavens. A great spear that seemed to be formed by boundless blood penetrated a figure and sprang out of the Gate of Heavens with incredible force. It soared into the sky within the blink of an eye.
Qin Nan and Doom did not even realize that the spear had already flown out of the Six Unity Forbidden Land and crossed the Feiyue Immortal Bridge in less than a hundred breaths’ time.
It finally started to lose its momentum. It dived from the sky and slammed heavily between the two ancient cities, leaving an enormous pit behind.
“What was that?”
“Was someone fighting?”
“Let’s go take a look!”
Many cultivators inside the two ancient cities were startled. They quickly flew out of the cities and directed their Divine Sense toward the place like surging tides.
“Isn’t…isn’t that…Supreme Hua Hai?”
