Chapter 2310: Determination
Meanwhile, a cave in the Battlefield of Aeon...
When the last wisp of immortal intent was absorbed, loud cracks occurred in Empress Feiyue"s body like chains being broken.
A few moments later, Empress Feiyue"s eyes sprang open.
Her faint blue eyes had a puzzled look.
"Is this...the Battlefield of Aeon?" She looked around him and murmured.
How did she end up in the Battlefield of Aeon?
Wasn"t she in the Blue Heavens?
She suddenly felt something cold on her face.
She touched her face and realized it was her tears.
"Am I...crying?"
Empress Feiyue was stunned. Ever since she invented the Art of Three Lifetimes in the Canglan Continent, she had never cried in any circ.u.mstances, regardless of her pain and sufferings.
"What exactly happened?" She realized something was not right. She took a deep breath to calm her thoughts and recalled the recent events.
Scenes surged into her mind like a tide.
In the beginning, she found the Soul-Acc.u.mulating Book by chance. She had let Ji Jinzi"s will take over her body out of compa.s.sion or some other reason.
Ji Jinzi soon found Qin Nan and convinced him to help her. The two of them visited the Blue Heavens.
Her body shuddered when she saw Ji Jinzi taking off her clothes and taking the initiative to approach Qin Nan.
She frowned when she saw the three artifacts and the powerful formation in the Land of Distress.
Her brows never loosened since then.
When she saw Qin Nan being sealed away and sustained severe injuries and Ji Jinzi crying in remorse, she felt like her heart was being stabbed with a giant sword.
She was br.i.m.m.i.n.g with anger and pain.
"Cang!"
Empress Feiyue"s eyes flickered murderously. The whole cave shook vigorously. The mysterious existences nearby fled for their lives as if they were struck by lightning.
She had rarely hated anyone throughout her life.
However, what Cang did to Qin Nan and how he treated his daughter and Immortal Jade Moon"s soul remnants as his p.a.w.ns had enraged her!
Her murderous aura finally dissipated as she calmed down after half an hour.
She was about to transmit her thought with the badges in her Storage Bag to ask Princess Miao Miao and the others about Qin Nan"s injuries when she noticed a few badges glowing.
She took a quick look at them. Her eyes widened slightly.
These badges contained the rapid changes in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm over the past few days.
The brilliant woman immediately realized the situation Qin Nan and the others were in.
"Qin Nan..."
Empress Feiyue clenched her fists.
The situation did not bother her much. It was eventually going to come down to this. Qin Nan would still find himself in an unfavorable situation regardless of what happened.
However, Cang had sealed away Qin Nan"s Nine Dragons Seal!
She knew how important the Nine Dragons Seal was to Qin Nan.
Both Cang and Ye Zhaoxian knew Qin Nan had inherited Zhou Di and Huangfu Jue"s belongings. It was reasonable for Cang and Ye Zhaoxian who were once Supreme Highnesses to act accordingly.
The Nine Dragons Seal was Qin Nan"s only hope at winning against Cang and Ye Zhaoxian!
It was also the only uncertainty.
"Last time, Qin Nan has exposed his ident.i.ty as Zhou Di"s reincarnation because of me...this time, it"s also because of me that..." Empress Feiyue clenched her fists harder.
Even her body was trembling slightly.
"This won"t do, I have to help him!" Empress Feiyue"s gaze sharpened.
But...
How was she supposed to help Qin Nan?
Was she going to wait for another two years to visit the G.o.d Breath"s Battlefield and become a Heaven Highness?
Even though her Art of Ten Lifetimes would allow her to surpa.s.s ordinary Heaven Highnesses upon achieving the Heaven Highness Realm, she would still be unmatchable against Cang and Ye Zhaoxian.
Therefore, becoming a Heaven Highness was not going to help Qin Nan a lot, unless she could be stronger until she was on par with Ye Zhaoxian and Cang"s strength!
But how was she going to achieve such strength?
Were there other places in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm that could make her stronger?
She felt hopeless and lost all of a sudden.
It was the worst feeling. Even though she had the courage and determination to do anything necessary, the path ahead was covered in utter darkness.
In the end, there was nothing she could do.
The cave was deadly quiet.
She sat on the ground like a statue.
Countless scenes flashed across her mind.
After some time, she recalled what Ye Zhaoxian once said when she visited the Blue Heavens with him and the others.
"To be honest with you all, Cang, Zhou Di, Huangfu Jue, and I were prepared to visit the Upper Mysterious Realm to learn the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm"s secrets, but something happened and prevented Huangfu Jue and I from entering it..."
It was only a brief account of the past.
Most people would only wonder what exactly happened back then. What did Cang and Zhou Di encounter in the Upper Mysterious Realm?
However, the words flashed across Empress Feiyue"s mind like a bolt of lightning and shattered her confusion.
"I found it!"
Empress Feiyue rose to her feet and flew into the distance without any hesitation.
Her target was the Upper Mysterious Realm in the Blue Heavens!
She was well aware of how terrifying the Upper Mysterious Realm was. Experts of the Heaven Highness Realm would not dare to visit it. Even Ye Zhaoxian and Huangfu Jue who used to be Supreme Highnesses had never gone inside it.
However, the more dangerous it was, the more important she felt it to be!
She was able to grow stronger and invent the Art of Three Lifetimes, which evolved into the Art of Ten Lifetimes and became a legend because she always abode by a single principle in everything she did.
The greater the risk, the greater the reward!
If even Supreme Highnesses were afraid of visiting the Upper Mysterious Realm, she would have a great chance of reaching Ye Zhaoxian and Cang"s strength if she managed to survive in it!
If she failed, she would die.
If she succeeded, she would achieve her goals!
Meanwhile, the Undying Cycle Mountain located in a rift in the Fifteenth Small Immortal Realm...
The calm lake in the fourth stage became restless. Countless golden lights were entering Qin Nan"s body.
His eyes moved a little before they sprang open.
He had fully recovered from the injuries he had sustained.
