Chapter 1831 - Broken Immortal Dao
Meanwhile, the inner sector of the Six Unity Forbidden Land…
Qin Nan quickly calmed his thoughts.
The surprises that the White-Blue Flower had brought him were just too many. He had already gotten used to them, thus he was not that shocked either.
“Qin Nan, are you sure you want to go there?” Doom could not help but ask.
The Gate of Heavens had given him too huge of a shock. He had a strong uneasy feeling about it.
“Of course I’m going, you can’t be scared, right? If Xiu Shenliang saw it, not only would he not be afraid of it, he might even mock it,” Qin Nan said with a smile.
“Hehe, do you think I don’t know about Xiu Shenliang’s personalities?”
Doom rolled his eyes.
Qin Nan shrugged. He continued forward without saying any word further.
Half an hour later, Qin Nan entered an ancient forest.
The ancient trees around him were at least a hundred zhang tall with dense leaves shrouding the sky. They felt extremely ma.s.sive, as if they could suppress everything.
Qin Nan’s eyes flickered with astonishment.
The place was truly extraordinary. The trees alone possessed great power of nature.
Even he might suffer great consequences if he was to provoke them despite his current cultivation.
Roar!
A few deafening roars suddenly came from the place ahead.
Qin Nan came to a stop. He noticed several enormous beasts soaring into the sky. Their huge claws crashed into one another, unleas.h.i.+ng formidable auras into the surroundings.
The cultivation of these beasts already surpa.s.sed the peak Heaven Immortal Realm. Their strength was equivalent to half-Peerless Rulers. Each of their attacks contained a destructive might.
“This place is unusually dangerous indeed. Even a few beasts that appeared randomly had such a remarkable strength.”
Qin Nan was startled. He purposely avoided the beasts.
He discovered a few more battles between several beasts as he proceeded further.
The fiercest battle consisted of three powerful beasts of the Peerless Ruler level. The force that was produced by the battle of life and death shattered the ground and the rift within four hundred thousand li into pieces.
If Qin Nan was clueless about the danger involved, he now had a better idea of it.
If he carelessly provoked some powerful beasts, he might not die on the spot, but he would still suffer serious injuries, making it difficult for him to keep going.
“Huh?”
After some time, Qin Nan came to a stop again.
He discovered a lot of corpses not far away, each emitting a shocking presence. The remains seemed to be scattered across the place, but he noticed some patterns to them with his Immortal Eyes.
“It must be a kind of sacrificial ritual. If I’m not mistaken, the Heaven-Repelling Ancient Sect must be responsible for it!” Doom said with a cold voice.
“The Heaven-Repelling Ancient Sect?”
Qin Nan slightly frowned.
He had had dealings with almost every faction since he came to this place.
However, when it came to the Heaven-Repelling Ancient Sect, he had only seen their disciples once.
“Could it be that the Heaven-Repelling Ancient Sect is here for the Gate of Heavens?”
A thought crossed his mind.
However, he quickly shook his head to reject it.
He was quite confident that the appearance of the Gate of Heavens was most likely triggered by the White-Blue Flower.
Without the White-Blue Flower, the Gate of Heavens might not even show itself.
The people of the Heaven-Repelling Ancient Sect would not know he had the White-Blue Flower, meaning that it was unlikely they were here for the Gate of Heavens.
The pressure that was stabbing his back suddenly grew a lot stronger. Qin Nan had a feeling that a pair of eyes were secretly staring at him.
“I didn’t think Zhu Yan and Gu Xiaoyao are able to catch up still. This is getting interesting…”
The white flames in Qin Nan’s eyes flickered, but he did not think too much about it. He gradually increased his speed.
He did not want new problems to crop up unexpectedly before he sneaked closer to the Gate of Heavens to understand the truth about the unexpected changes.
Time gradually pa.s.sed. Around half an hour later, Qin Nan finally left the ancient forest and came to a desert.
“The sand is so unique!”
Qin Nan came to a stop and glanced ahead.
The sand was sapphire-blue with a mystical glow under the golden light of the gate in the east.
On top of it, each of the sand contained a faint Dao Intent.
“Qin Nan, leave this place at once!”
Doom suddenly let out a huge roar.
Qin Nan was stunned for a moment. He subconsciously backed away and noticed over thousands of ancient runes of a formation appearing at where he was standing previously.
Illusionary figures of ancient weapons over a few dozen zhang flew out from the eye of the formation. There were swords, hammers, sabers, and halberds.
Every weapon unleashed an incomparable power as if they were held by a great authority. In just half a breath’s time, the enormous desert was stirred up in chaos.
“Such a close call…”
A few drops of cold sweat surfaced on Qin Nan’s forehead. If Doom did not remind him in time, he would walk right into the formation and end up expending a huge amount of energy while suffering serious injuries.
“Qin Nan, do you now understand why I was asking if you are sure about this!? The inner sector of this place is like the realm of death. There are deadly traps everywhere…”
Doom harrumphed coldly.
However, before he could finish, his eyes widened just like Qin Nan’s.
The weapons suddenly emitted a blinding immoral glow before flying out of the formations. They went right at Qin Nan with a shocking murderous intent.
“The formation here must be from the Tribe of Fixed Spirit. It can chase after its targets, we have to run!” Doom yelled.
Qin Nan did not dare to lower his guard. He quickly executed the Unstoppable Step and Sky-Stride Blow and swiftly turned into a blurry figure das.h.i.+ng into the distance.
BANG! BANG! BANG!
However, the situation worsened further as one after another formation was triggered in the air. Magnificent beats over thousand zhang tall, mountains and rivers with outstanding murderous auras appeared and attacked Qin Nan.
“Thousand Sun Strike!”
Qin Nan was utterly tensed with his hair standing on its end. He quickly took out the Heaven-Repairing Cauldron and fired several brilliant beams.
“c.r.a.p!”
Qin Nan was startled.
He saw the formations recovering in no time even when the Thousand Sun Strike had knocked them back or inflicted serious damage on them.
In other words, he had no chance of breaking the deadly formations, nor the chance to run away from them.
“Qin Nan, there’s a rare phenomenon over there. Let’s try heading there!”
