Chapter 2270: Heart-Slaying Slash
Chapter 2270: Heart-Slaying Slash
Five days later, an ancient palace in the Dao Apes Tribe’s establishment…
Qin Nan was performing a series of mystical hand seals. The power of the Heart Mind Formation surged into Qin Nan’s body at a shocking rate like it was being absorbed.
Qin Nan’s figure suddenly blurred out, like he was just a faint illusion inside a mist.
He remained in the weird state for five hours until the words on the faint-golden boulder fired golden lights into his forehead.
Buzz!
A loud buzz echoed in the surroundings.
Qin Nan’s eyes sprang open as he fully unleashed his will in the form of colorful lights behind him to light up the palace.
The colorful lights shuddered vigorously while they were accumulated to transform into something different.
In the end, the lights turned into a saber!
The nine colors narrowed down to three colors, white, blue, and black!
His will had also merged with a hint of the Impenetrable Sacred Flesh and the Art of the Immortal Demon!
“A saber artist advances recklessly with no fear and doubts. Is this the core of my beliefs?”
Qin Nan’s eyes flickered with astonishment.
“My will has taken the form of a saber. It might be able to merge with the Heaven-Shattering Saber to strengthen it,” Qin Nan murmured.
An unexpected change took lace as he was about to calm his thoughts and withdrew the art!
The Nine Dragons Seal in his soul started glowing as an ancient aura surged like a storm.
“What’s happening?”
Zhou Xundao and Jiaye were startled, just like Qin Nan.
Whoosh!
The Nine Dragons Seal shuddered and unleashed its lights to project a scene in the palace.
“Mm? What’s the Nine Dragons Seal doing?”
Qin Nan lifted his gaze.
He saw an immortal mountain shrouded by clouds in the scene. On top of the mountain stood an illusionary figure.
The illusionary figure suddenly moved and drew out the sword behind him to execute a slash.
The glow of the slash tore the Heavens and Earth apart!
It was only a visual representation without any sound, but Qin Nan could sense a formidable aura lunging at him like it was happening right before his eyes.
“Is this…”
Qin Nan’s eyes widened.
He had sensed something different from the slash!
The glow of the slash did not belong to the Master Force or the Power of Rules inside the body of an ordinary cultivator. It was the materialized form of someone’s will!
“Could he be…Heaven Highness Xinruo?” Jiaye blurted out in doubt.
The Nine Dragons Seal shuddered, as if it was praising Jiaye for being insightful.
“Is he really Heaven Highness Xinruo?”
Jiaye took a deep breath and said, “Qin Nan, if I’m not mistaken, the slash is one of the peerless arts that Heaven Highness Xinruo has invented himself. It’s called the Heart-Slaying Slash! He has used the same art to shatter the will of many Heaven Highnesses who have reincarnated to make the cultivators bearing their reincarnation normal again.”
Qin Nan was astounded.
He was able to learn the peerless art of the man who was considered to have the greatest achievement in the field of the mind and will just like that?
“Nine Dragons Seal, thank you!”
Qin Nan transmitted his thoughts upon collecting his thoughts.
At first, he was a little regretful for claiming the Nine Dragons Seal as it did not seem to have many uses. He even had to endure the Dao Calamity for its sake, but now, he was relieved for making the right choice.
The light of the Nine Dragons Seal dissipated without responding to Qin Nan.
Qin Nan had long gotten used to its attitude. He quickly sat on the ground and fixed his eyes on the scene to comprehend the slash.
“The Nine Dragons Seal has taken the initiative to teach Qin Nan the Heart-Slaying Slash. It must have known the Three Sacred Seals of Heart Ape along isn’t going to help Qin Nan achieve his goal,” Zhou Xundao said.
“Mm, it’s a great sign too. The Nine Dragons Seal is starting to support our master,” Jiaye said with great anticipation.
Even though they might be under complicated circumstances with lots of trouble awaiting them in the journey ahead, Qin Nan’s brilliance continued to grow!
Time gradually passed. Another five days were gone.
The scene in the palace was already gone. Qin Nan let out a deep breath as the saber intent he was emitting returned to normal.
Qin Nan’s eyes were filled with astonishment.
The more he comprehended, the more he realized how unusual the Heart-Slaying Slash was.
Qin Nan had barely comprehended three-tenths of it.
That being said, knowing Qin Nan’s Martial Skill Talent, he had no problem fully comprehending the Heart-Slaying Slash. It was only difficult because Heaven Highness Xinruo had invented the art based on everything he had practiced.
Qin Nan did not practice the same arts as Heaven Highness Xinruo did. It was also difficult to understand everything just from the scene along.
“In the current world, being able to derive an extraordinary path of cultivation already makes one an exceptional genius, but the experts in the ancient era were able to invent their own arts and techniques…” Qin Nan thought.
If he had the chance, he would like to see the brilliance of the ancient era.
Qin Nan soon cleared his thoughts before contacting Shangguan Zheng and Shangguan Hou.
“Brother Qin Nan, you are done?”
The two were in great shock as they arrived.
It took them eight months to comprehend the Three Sacred Seal of Heart Ape even with the help of the Heart Mind Formation!
They knew Qin Nan’s Martial Skill Talent was unusual, but wasn’t it too terrifying compared to what they thought?
“Mm, may I ask you two to borrow me the Dao Ape Bell?”
Qin Nan brought his fists together.
“We have already made the necessary arrangements!”
Shangguan Zheng immediately took out an ancient ring after collecting his thoughts. Qin Nan scanned it with his Divine Sense and noticed the vast space inside the ring with a shocking presence of pure immortal intent.
A faint-blue bell was floating in the space.
The Dao Ape Bell was an ancient Dao-Seeking Weapon!
“You have my thanks. I shall excuse myself as my time is running short.”
Qin Nan brought his fists together before leaving the place.
At the same time, the badges in his storage bag started glowing. Progenitor Mingchu, Progenitor Linghuang, and the others were transmitting their thoughts to him simultaneously.
“Mm? Did something happen?”
Qin Nan frowned and checked the badges.
“Qin Nan, the Li Clan has just contacted us. Cang and Heaven Highness Wuwang has achieved the Nine Heavens Supreme Realm in the seventy-two Sacred Areas of the Heavens and Earth in only two days. They have already forced the Heaven-Reaching Dao Tree to blossom in the Dao Seeking Land in order to achieve the Master Realm.”
“Qin Nan, return to the Undying Cycle Mountain at once!”
“Cang has sent someone to deliver a challenge invitation. He asked you to visit the Battlefield of Aeon on the first day of the upcoming month to achieve the Ruler Realm together. He also listed a number of conditions!”
