Chapter 1721 - Rudao Immortal Talisman
Some time later, Qin Nan and the others gradually recovered their senses. Their eyes slowly opened.
The brilliant golden light seemed to be illusionary at first, yet it actually knocked them unconscious like a raging tide.
“Ah! Qin Nan, you son of a b**ch, I’m going to make you pay for it!”
The Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor immediately screamed while his body was trembling in rage.
He had totally regretted it. Why did he forget how the little a.s.sh**e had been constantly stirring up troubles in the past?
He had awakened the Land of Danger at the Land of Immortal Death!
Was working with him really going to do him any good?
“What the heck are you screaming for?”
Qin Nan rolled his eyes and scanned the surroundings.
He noticed they were currently in a huge valley over thirty thousand li long surrounded by walls that were reaching the sky. The walls were covered in countless Dao runes too.
Even though the runes were not activated, he could still feel their iciness.
It was quite obvious that they would be killed brutally if they tried to fly out of the valley.
“What’s this?”
Qin Nan suddenly noticed an ancient boulder around ten zhang tall toward the end of the valley. It was serene blue with countless saber marks on its surface.
Qin Nan immediately recalled his encounter with a strange boulder full of sword marks that was able to talk. It was at a Place of Misery outside the law somewhere in the Supreme Cave Abode.
Was the boulder he was seeing somehow related to that strange boulder?
Qin Nan activated the Immortal Eyes of the Divine G.o.d of Battle upon having this thought. He wondered if he could observe anything useful.
However, as soon as the immortal flames erupted in his eyes, the strange boulder with saber marks suddenly unleashed a terrifying force directed at Qin Nan’s mind.
Qin Nan was startled. He quickly closed his eyes and took a few steps back. The absorbing force soon dissipated.
“Holy c.r.a.p, f**k me! Did…did it really work?”
The Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor uttered a series curses. He seemed excited as soon as he laid his eyes on the boulder, “It’s the Supreme Boulder, we’ve made it to the deepest part of the palace!”
Qin Nan frowned and asked, “Supreme Boulder?”
The Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor collected his thoughts and rubbed his hands. He said with a chuckle, “The Supreme Boulder is naturally formed after a Nine Heavens Supreme has fallen. It contains the will of the Nine Heavens Supreme.”
“From what I know, if we can comprehend Supreme Rudao’s Talisman from the Supreme Boulder, it will help us find Supreme Rudao’s coffin, giving us a chance to claim his succession.”
Qin Nan’s eyes flickered with excitement. He looked at the Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor with a mocking grin. The twenty beasts behind him did the same thing too.
When they first arrived in the valley, the Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor was cursing and complaining as if he was about to fall out with Qin Nan.
The Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor blushed. He said embarra.s.sedly, “I was just being impatient. I didn’t think suppressing the three sabers would directly bring us to the deepest part…”
Qin Nan might be unaware, but he clearly knew the prices one had to pay just to come this far into the palace. The risks were so great that one might even lose their life.
The three Immortal Emperors had long entered the palace, yet even they did not make it this far yet.
“This kid’s luck is truly impressive!” the Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor murmured.
However, when he thought about how the kid had managed to achieve the Greater Success Stage of the Dao Realm at such a young age and gathered the attention of Empress Feiyue, it would be strange if the kid was just a normal cultivator.
The people with extraordinary achievements usually had some impressive luck too!
Qin Nan had no intention to waste his time talking. He withdrew his thoughts and activated the Immortal Eyes of the Divine G.o.d of Battle to inspect the Supreme Boulder again.
The terrifying force appeared once again. Qin Nan did not resist it. He allowed the force to absorb his mind into the boulder.
Qin Nan suddenly felt his surroundings turning dark, as if he had arrived deep within the boundless rift.
Whoos.h.!.+
A saber glow descended out of nowhere.
He noticed a magnificent figure grabbing at the saber glow. The figure began to move and slash a few times forward, unleas.h.i.+ng a formidable power.
“Is this Supreme Rudao’s saber intent?”
Qin Nan was startled. He quickly gathered his attention and soon indulged in the process of observing the saber glow.
“Such a cunning kid!”
The Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor cursed in his heart and quickly directed his thoughts into the boulder too.
The twenty beasts exchanged glances with one another. They started observing the Supreme Boulder too after a slight hesitation. Even though they were unable to claim the succession of the Nine Heavens Supreme, it was still beneficial for them to comprehend the saber intent.
Time gradually pa.s.sed.
Eight days later, Qin Nan and the Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor opened their eyes simultaneously. A strong saber intent burst out of their bodies and soared into the clouds.
Whoosh whoosh whoos.h.!.+
Rays of light fell onto Qin Nan and his group, revealing a talisman that was refined by the blood of heavenly dragon on each of them. The talismans had a different number of runes.
“HAHAHA! My talents never cease to amaze me. I’ve earned the approval of the Supreme Boulder and received a saber talisman with three runes. I might be able to claim the succession with it…”
The Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor looked around while he burst out laughing. However, as he caught a glimpse of the number of runes on Qin Nan’s talisman, he immediately shrieked as if his tail had just been stepped on, “Nine…nine runes?”
Qin Nan’s eyes were still flickering with astonishment as if he did not hear the Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor’s shriek.
The saber intent that changed continuously in the past eight days and the final slash had left him in a great shock.
His mind was still occupied with the saber intent.
“Qin…Qin Nan?”
Two astounded voices appeared.
Qin Nan quickly collected his thoughts. Both he and the Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor followed the voices and saw the Bliss Immortal Emperor and the Ground Spirit Immortal Emperor covered in blood entering the valley. They seemed to be in a miserable state.
“Ah, it’s you two a.s.sh***s!”
The Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor immediately blurted out angrily. He quickly hid behind the twenty beasts.
“Seniors, you are here too? Where’s Senior Red Zither?”
Qin Nan frowned.
“She…sigh, she did not make it!”
The Bliss Immortal Emperor let out a sigh and asked, “Why are you here? I mean, how did you come here?”
Qin Nan explained the series of events that took place. The lips of the two Immortal Emperors twitched.
“Is the thing you’re holding the Rudao Immortal Talisman? Mm, with nine runes?”
The Bliss Immortal Emperor and the Ground Spirit Immortal Emperor were astounded. They soon collected their thoughts and exchanged glances with one another. They both saw the murderous flicker in one another’s eyes.
“Qin Nan, you never let us down! Unfortunately, this Rudao Immortal Talisman is really important to us. Could you please give it to us?”
The Bliss Immortal Emperor walked forward and said with a smile.
