Chapter 1728 - The End of the Ancient Path
Qin Nan did not overthink further. He gathered his focus on the task on hand.
After fully refining a few hundred herbs, his cultivation had reached the sixth-layer Earth Immortal Realm. The magical feeling in his heart thickened too.
“Almost there!”
Qin Nan glanced at the seven Immortal Blessings natural resources again.
He was not an expert with natural resources, but he could roughly tell their uses judging from the auras they were emitting.
“The ancient tree covered in runes should be able to increase a person’s comprehension. If that’s the case…”
Qin Nan made up his mind. He gathered the Dao-Melting Immortal Flames and poured them onto the other six Immortal Blessings to set them on fire.
Five hours later, the six Immortal Blessings gradually melted, transforming into six wisps of formidable immortal force pouring into Qin Nan’s body. It felt like his cultivation was about to have a breakthrough again.
The magical feeling multiplied too.
In addition to it, six different immortal wills of the Heavens and Earth continued to merge with the Dao-Melting Immortal Flames in his body, making the flames stronger and improving Qin Nan’s understanding of the Heavens and Earth.
However, all these changes were only the beginning!
The six Immortal Blessings seemed to contain endless energy like six immortal oceans.
Time gradually pa.s.sed. Three days were gone fairly quickly.
Qin Nan had thoroughly refined the six Immortal Blessings. He had achieved the ninth-layer Earth Immortal Realm too. He was emitting a faint blue glow like a mist.
It felt like Qin Nan had set his foot on a mysterious ancient path. He had been moving forward endlessly, and he finally saw the end of it in the distance.
“Now!”
The Dao-Melting Immortal Flames burst out of his body and landed on the last Immortal Blessing.
Initially, it would take at least an hour to see any changes on an Immortal Blessing he was refining.
However, it felt like an invisible force was somehow helping him. Only a few moments had pa.s.sed when a dragon cry echoed in the surroundings.
A strong immortal force, immortal will of the Heavens and Earth, and an indescribable unique power poured into Qin Nan’s body. The magical feeling circling his heart underwent shocking changes.
In Qin Nan’s perspective, everything around him had suddenly disappeared. His thoughts were preoccupied with the mysterious ancient path. He subconsciously lifted his gaze and saw a magnificent ancient gate standing firmly at the end of it.
He continued to move toward the ancient gate as if he was bewitched. He reached his hands out to touch the runes on the gate in a serious manner, as if he did not want to miss a single detail on it.
For some reason, the events that happened in the past suddenly surfaced in his mind like bamboo shoots after a rain.
He remembered how Jiang Bilan had stepped forward and turned into the Death Crystal during the Monarch Horoscope Contest. He remembered the Magical Hair Sword G.o.d challenging the South-Heaven Sacred Ground by himself when he was achieving the Martial Monarch Realm. He remembered his first time coming to the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm in his spirit form…
BANG!
An ancient blue light sprang up from Qin Nan’s back, followed by a vague majestic figure with an overwhelming presence.
Dong!
The chimes of a giant bell echoed in the palace of Supreme Rudao and spread further into every corner.
Whoos.h.!.+
The Qianyuan Lake, the Exquisite Jade Supreme Lake, and the Immortal Nocturne Willow became restless as if they had sensed something.
“Could this be…”
The Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor who was joyfully refining the little jade crystals shuddered as his face was filled with astonishment.
Are you being serious!?
How many days had it been only, yet Qin Nan had already succeeded in reforging his Dao Foundation?
How crazy did his talents have to be?
Meanwhile, the place of misery outside the law in the Supreme Cave Abode…
The Bliss Immortal Emperor and the Ground Spirit Immortal Emperor were guarding the entrance as Supreme Rudao was conversing with a man in a gray robe whose figure was almost transparent.
If Qin Nan was here, he would instantly recognize the man was the one that tried to kill him at the Sky Taihuang Sect.
“Old man, why are you so stubborn? I can tell this Qin Nan is destined to have lots of women. Why do you insist that I become one of them too?” Supreme Rudao said while clenching her teeth.
“The path of cultivation is never-ending. Oh Mengyao, your talents aren’t any weaker than the Ten Immortals. They even exceed some of us. You will achieve greater heights than us.”
The man in a gray robe said in a deep voice, “But you will one day marry someone. Why not marry Qin Nan then?”
Supreme Rudao shook her head right away, “That won’t be necessary. I don’t need a man.”
The man’s eyes turned cold slightly. The atmosphere in the surroundings felt heavier all of a sudden, “Even though my spirit has pretty much turn into scattering ashes, are you really going to go against your promise?”
Supreme Rudao harrumphed. She did not answer the question. However, her eyes flickered curiously as a thought crossed his mind, “Who exactly was Qin Nan’s past life? Why do you have to go so far just to help him?”
The man in a gray robe fell silent for a prolonged moment. He eventually said, “I will tell you, but first, you have to remember your promise and become his partner.”
“He’s actually not one of the Ten Immortals. I believe you know those ranked in the top four have achieved that level, but he…”
As they were talking, they heard the bell chimes in the distance.
“How did he do it so quickly?” Supreme Rudao’s eyes were filled with astonishment. She clearly knew the meaning behind the chimes.
Even with her talents, it would take her at least a month to reforge her Dao Foundation with the Dao-Melting Immortal Flames and the natural resources.
“It’s unbelievable indeed.”
The man in a gray robe was shocked too. He let out a long sigh and said, “Rudao, I’ve told you the way. You just need to do it to regain your freedom.”
“I don’t have much time left. I want to see him again.”
Supreme Rudao let out a sigh in her heart when she heard the words. She said, “I’ll go with you too.”
