Chapter 2288: Achieving the Ruler Realm, Part One
The woman was none other than the Heaven-Reaching Dao Tree’s successor, Li Yangfan!
“With such a strong life force nurturing the soul, you can greatly reduce the time required to bring your Senior Brother back to life if you can collect enough soul energy for him,” Zhou Xundao said with a smile.
“What…what just happened? Did she say Tang Blockhead’s time isn’t up? Qin Nan, is it real?”
Zhao Li’er’s dull eyes burst into flames, like a drowning person able to find a floating plank.
Qin Nan took a few deep breaths to withhold the shock in his heart. He nodded heavily.
He immediately transmitted everything he knew into her mind.
“Tang Blockhead!”
She hugged the ice cold body tightly and held the Inverse Soul Lamp.
Tears were pouring out of her eyes.
However, they were no longer tears of sorrow, but tears of joy!
The Masters of Dao were bewildered by the sight. Even though they had no clue what was going on, they could tell Qin Nan’s Senior Brother was not truly dead judging from Qin Nan and the others’ reaction.
“Damn it!”
“We should have gone a little further!”
“We should have destroyed his flesh and his soul!”
Demon Emperor Wutian who went back into hiding in the dark burst out cursing upon seeing the turn of events.
“We can only rely on Buddhism Arts. How are we supposed to destroy his soul? Besides, there’s no way we would expect the woman who’s only in the Greater Success Stage of the Nine Heavens Supreme Realm to possess the Inverse Soul Lamp!”
Moxie said calmly, “We’ve done the best we could. We have at least strengthen Qin Nan’s demonic will by more than ten times. It also proves we have the right idea…”
Demon Emperor Wutian agreed after giving it a second thought. His expression calmed down.
Meanwhile, Progenitor Mingchu also wore a smile on his face.
“It seems like I have come here for nothing!” Progenitor Mingchu murmured.
He did not want to kill Tang Qingshan unless it was the only option.
“It’s fine this way. I can watch you achieving the Ruler Realm in person,” Progenitor Mingchu sat with his legs crossed and said.
He had also come to keep an eye on Qin Nan and prevent any danger from befalling him. It was also the second reason why he did not go to the Blue Heavens.
Meanwhile, the Third Forbidden Area…
Cang clapped and exclaimed with a smile on his face, “Splendid, how wonderful! I didn’t expect you could really see the light at the end of the tunnel after what happened! It seems like even fate is on your side.”
“Qin Nan, congratulations on saving your Senior Brother.”
Many Masters of Dao were shocked. Cang had obviously suffered a great loss after everything that happened, yet he was still smiling without any sign of anger.
“Seniors, please escort her away and let the others of the Undying Cycle Mountain to receive her,” Qin Nan told Li Ji and Mo Xiaoli. He also applied a few layers of protection on Zhao Li’er.
“Yangfan, thank you for your help,” Qin Nan brought his fists together sincerely.
“That won’t be necessary, it’s no trouble, and I’m also accumulating some good karma,” Li Yangfan said. She turned elegantly and left.
Qin Nan nodded. He did not say a word more,
Qin Nan finally directed his gaze to Cang.
“You have congratulated me, but I have to say sorry to you. After all. you have lost Heaven Highness Wuwang’s reincarnation and orb spirit, and a chance to blackmail me in the future,” Qin Nan said with a smile. His aura started to change.
“It’s fine, the fact that his will was erased is a clear indication of his incompetence. I have no use for a piece of trash like him. Besides, I never thought of blackmailing you. What kind of person do you think I am?”
Cang shrugged mockingly.
“Well, there’s no need to talk any further since you don’t really care. I shall test my strength against your Art of the Heavenly Emperor then!”
Qin Nan rose into the air with his saber and went closer to Cang.
A brilliant sacred light and a strong demonic glow burst out from him with the Dao Pattern hovering behind him.
His aura grew with every step he took. It began to surge in all directions after a few steps.
The Masters of Dao soon felt a familiar pressure.
Whoosh!
Qin Nan made his move. He merged with the saber and turned into a brilliant light slashing at Cang. The slash shattered the rules in its path and distorted the space.
“Xiao Nanzi, we’ll lend you a hand. Let’s teach that old monster a lesson!”
Princess Miao Miao, Jiang Bilan, and Xue Mengyao immediately reacted after collecting their thoughts. They unleashed the power of the Flower of Eternity and executed a peerless saber art respectively.
“Let’s follow Qin Nan and kill Cang!”
The rest of the Masters of Dao shouted. Their voices shook the Heavens as they took off and executed deadly moves.
The counterattack had begun!
Cang immediately found himself at a disadvantage!
“HAHA, Qin Nan, that’s not very kind of you! Are all of you teaming up to bully me because I’m alone?”
Cang burst out laughing. He waved his hand indifferently.
The mountains, ground, and rivers across the Third Forbidden Area cracked apart as enormous beasts and other mystical existences appeared and charged at the Masters of Dao.
They looked like a shocking strong tide from the distance.
They were all in the Master Realm!
Their eyes were replaced with strange symbols too. They were clearly controlled by a mysterious power.
“Princess, Bilan, Mengyao, don’t worry about me. Go ahead and take them out and achieve the Ruler Realm! I can deal with Cang myself.”
Qin Nan transmitted his voice.
“Sure!”
The three women decisively changed their directions.
“Yes, that’s more like it.”
Cang nodded. The smile on his face faded away. An imperious aura overshadowing every living creature emerged from him.
He dashed forward and collided with Qin Nan after summoning a heavenly figure.
A series of shocking explosions took place.
The first phase of the Battle of the Masters had ended. It was going to be a tough battle for everyone from here onward, as there was only one goal left for them, to exceed their limits and achieve the Ruler Realm!
