Chapter 2297: Going Forward
"A lot is at stake. We can"t promise you for now. Why don"t you swear an oath with your h eart and your soul in your name for now?" Zhou Xundao said.
"Alright!"
Empress Feiyue swore the two oaths without any hesitation before vanis.h.i.+ng into thinn air.
"Qin Nan, what do you think?" Zhou Xundao asked.
"If possible, I would like to visit the Blue Heavens!" Qin Nan said sternly after collecting his thoughts.
Zhou Xundao and Jiaye smiled.
What did he mean if possible?
He was obviously keen to go!
However, Zhou Xundao and Jiaye supported his decision.
They were initially worried that Cang would pull the strings behind the scenes and let Empress Feiyue lose her will completely so she would become Qin Nan"s enemy. However, it did not seem to be the case now.
Qin Nan had to visit the Blue Heavens.
According to Ji Jinzi, she had only overtaken Empress Feiyue"s will temporarily. Empress Feiyue would most likely reclaim her flesh after some time.
Qin Nan might be able to erase Ji Jinziz"s will with the Heart-Slaying Slash.
However, he could not afford to do so.
Ji Jinzi was currently controlling Empress Feiyue"s flesh. She would surely look for the other half of the Soul Acc.u.mulating Book whether Qin Nan was going with her or not.
If Ji Jinzi was telling the truth, Empress Feiyue would most likely die if she ventured too deep into the Blue Heavens.
More precisely, even Cang, Ye Zhaoxian, and Eternal Night Heaven Highness might die if they went too deep into the Blue Heavens.
Their only hope was to rely on the Nine Dragons Seal.
It was also in their best interest to let Ji Jinzi"s will dissipate on its own, as it would have the least side effects on Empress Feiyue.
Both Zhou Xundao and Jiaye had been around since the ancient era. Even though they believed Ji Jinzi was telling the truth, they still had some doubts.
On second thought, Cang had only achieved the Ruler Realm. There was only a Heaven Highness left in the Primary Upper Realm.
It was unlikely anyone would try to set him up if he were to visit the Blue Heavens.
Besides, the Nine Dragons Seal would be around to look after Qin Nan too.
"I didn"t know Immortal Jade Moon"s soul has been captured," Zhou Xundao and Jiaye thought.
Zhou Di had met Immortal Jade Moon before achieving the Heaven Highness Realm. The two of them had stumbled into one another several times. They had also worked together to fend off their enemies.
Back then, Zhou Di had a good impression of Immortal Jade Moon.
The latter also had a good impression of the former.
However, it did not turn into affection. Immortal Jade Moon was forced by her family to marry Cang. Zhou Di tried to prevent it, but Immortal Jade Moon stopped him.
They would have been a great couple, but fate did not bring them together.
Everything had changed now as they were recalling the past.
"Wu Di, you heard everything too. I suppose you won"t have any problem bringing me deeper into the Blue Heavens? Didn"t you want me to find the stone? I can look for them too," Qin Nan said.
He had to depend on the Nine Dragons Seal if he wanted to go deeper into the Blue Heavens
"What do you mean I won"t have any problem? Of course there won"t be any problem! Who do you think I am? What do you think the Nine Dragons Seal is? I can guarantee your safety even if you reach the deepest part of the Blue Heavens!"
"You shouldn"t bother me for an insignificant matter like that again," an annoyed voice burst out from the Nine Dragons Seal.
"Thanks!"
Qin Nan was relieved. He opened his eyes.
"Qin Nan, what just happened?" Progenitor Mingchu and the others asked.
"Well..."
Qin Nan explained everything that happened to them.
"Phew, that"s a relief!"
Princess Miao Miao and the others let out relieved sighs.
"Are you going to the Blue Heavens now?" Progenitor Mingchu asked with a frown.
"Mm."
Qin Nan said after a brief pause, "Senior, to be honest with you, I have something in me that can guarantee my safety even if I go deeper into the Blue Heavens."
Progenitor Mingchu shuddered. He said with a wry smile after some time, "As expected of the reincarnation of two Supreme Highnesses. I never knew a thing like that exists. I have no opinion if that"s the case. I"ll bring you to the Blue Heavens myself."
Princess Miao Miao said, "I want to go too!"
Qin Nan rejected it instantly, "No, you have just achieved the Ruler Realm. It"s too dangerous for you to go to the Blue Heavens now! I have no clue how many people the artifact can protect."
Princess Miao Miao twisted her lips. She was about to say something when Jiang Bilan chuckled, "Princess, Qin Nan is right. Now is not the best time to go. We should return to the Undying Cycle Mountain and improve our cultivation."
"Qin Nan won"t have a reason to stop us by then."
Princess Miao Miao rolled her eyes. It was true she should pick up her pace when she thought about how quickly Qin Nan"s cultivation had improved. Otherwise, she would be left behind.
If she did go to the Blue Heavens and become a burden to Qin Nan, wouldn"t she feel ashamed of herself?
"Fine, but you must bring Sister Feiyue back unharmed," Princess Miao Miao said.
"Of course."
Qin Nan had a quick chat with the ladies before sending them back to the Undying Cycle Mountain. He then departed for the Blue Heavens together with Progenitor Mingchu.
He also transmitted a message through the Red String of Three Lifetimes.
Ji Jinzi was surprised to receive his message.
"Qin Nan, it"s quite a journey to the Blue Heavens. Why don"t you train with the Great Superfluous Formation so you can refine the Flower of Eternity as soon as possible."
"Once the Art of the Immortal Demon grows stronger, you could try achieving the Indestructible Flesh of Eternity and the Greater Success Stage of the Art of the Immortal Demon," Jiaye said.
"Understood!"
Qin Nan nodded. He poured his Power of Rules into the Ownerless Heaven Pattern.
He had now achieved the Ruler Realm. All he had to do was to improve the new power in his body and comprehend his own Rules.
