Chapter 1986: Chapter 1986 - Date of Return

Meanwhile, the northernmost land…

The Tai’a Heaven Pattern calmed its tone and said, “Cultivator Qin Nan, I’m at fault for the things that I’ve done. I’m willing to admit my wrongdoings. If you’re willing, I can even give you…”

Qin Nan waved his hand with a cold look, “It’s too late for that now.”

Following it, a sharp saber glow lit up the darkness nearby and slashed at the Tai’a Heaven Pattern mercilessly. It let out another cry of agony.

“Qin Nan, you’re going to pay for it!”

The Tai’a Heaven Pattern made up its mind having no other options left. It let out a huge roar as it split into countless light dots scattering across the place.

At that instant, the area within a million li was no longer part of the Sacred Emperor Continent, but a standalone world instead. The Martial Rules that were around just a moment ago ceased to exist, similar to the Second Continent of the Canglan Continent.

“Qin Nan, your cultivation might be unmatchable, but even if I can’t hurt you physically, I can still erase your will!”

A huge roar echoed in the sky.

An illusionary titan standing between the Heavens and Earth amid the white glow grew to an unimaginable level. Every mountain of the continent was incomparable to it.

The Tai’a Heaven Pattern had completely lost its mind after being forced into a corner. It began to consume its origin force to establish a whole new continent on the Sacred Emperor Continent.

It was the ruler of the land!

With it, its will would reach a terrifying level!

“Trying to use your will to erase my existence?”

Qin Nan grinned.

To his surprise, the Tai’a Heaven Pattern had used its will to attack him first.

“Qin Nan, die!”

The magnificent titan began to move. Its enormous palm swung at Qin Nan with the force of the entire sky.

Whoosh!

At that instant, an ancient blue light flickered.

The Divine Battle Spirit emerged behind Qin Nan, its eyes glancing down at everything.

BANG!

The white light encapsulating the area within a million li immediately shattered as if it had just suffered the wrath of the Heavens. The magnificent titan crumbled instantly too.

A greater cry of agony sounded. The Tai’a Heaven Pattern reclaimed its initial form and fell to the ground with an extremely weak light and aura.

“That…that’s…”

The Tai’a Heaven Pattern could not accept the outcome, but it soon witnessed something even more shocking.

The ground was shaking vigorously. The rules were completely in disorder.

Strong gusts of wind and lightning were surging everywhere.

The Sacred Emperor Continent might have surpassed the rest of the continents in the Secondary Lower Realm, but it still could not withstand the presence of the blue figure behind Qin Nan.

Qin Nan swiftly withdrew the Divine Battle Spirit.

He had purposely suppressed the Divine Battle Spirit’s aura when he unleashed it. Otherwise, the southernmost land would cease to exist immediately. Nothing but void was going to remain.

“It felt so restrictive using my power in the Secondary Lower Realm.”

Qin Nan exclaimed. He was about to slash forward with his saber.

To him, destroying a portion of a continent’s origin force was no different from slaying a Human Immortal.

However, the Ownerless Heaven Pattern in his Divine Sense suddenly absorbed the Tai’a Heaven Pattern into it.

“Mm? Does this mean the Ownerless Heaven Pattern can recover by absorbing origin force?”

A thought crossed Qin Nan’s mind. He began to inspect the Ownerless Heaven Pattern closely.

However, he did not see anything unusual after observing it for some time.

“Forget it, I’ll check on it again later.”

Qin Nan shook his head and vanished into thin air.

The following day, the people of the Sacred Emperor Continent were utterly dumbfounded.

Qin Nan had invaded the Tai’a Heaven Palace alone, and as a result, the Tai’a Heaven Pattern and thirty Human Gods had died. E’Yunsheng was crippled, and half of the faction was destroyed. The faction was basically wiped out entirely!

The Dabei Sect had declared to close its doors for two hundred years. Its disciples would not show themselves as a way to apologize for their offense!

Countless factions, including the experts from the Nine Heavens Immortal Realms and other continents were astounded.

How could a man’s cultivation be so formidable?

However, they fell silent when they learned Qin Nan was an Exceptional Genius who had already achieved the Peerless Ruler Realm in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm.

The man’s talents were already comparable to the legendary Empress Feiyue. Everything he did was certainly within expectations.

The incident did trigger a series of chain reactions. The Canglan Continent’s status rose rapidly among the continents in the Secondary Lower Realm. It barely reached the level of the top five continents. The attitude of the Central Continent and other continents toward the Canglan Continent changed completely.

It was unnecessary to describe the rest of it.

Qin Nan returned to his father and had an enjoyable gathering with Longhu and Sima Kong. He did not show himself in front of others.

Time gradually passed. The seasons and years flew by.

Many incidents occurred in the various continents of the Secondary Lower Realm, but Qin Nan remained by his father’s side.

Qin Tian’s hair finally whitened.

Qin Nan wanted to help Qin Tian improve his cultivation, but the old man claimed he no longer had the motivation. He ended up rejecting the offer firmly, but he finally gave in when Qin Nan mentioned the old man should live until his son was married and had children. He barely improved his cultivation to the Martial Sacred Realm.

Years later, a house amid a heavy snow…

Qin Tian was wearing a long robe made of beast hide. His face was full of wrinkles. He had started to age, yet he seemed to be full of vigor still, especially when he was wearing an angry look.

“You assh***, do you think you can disobey me just because you are a Peerless Ruler now? It’s the perfect time for you to achieve greater heights. Why the hell are you wasting your time on me instead!?” Qin Tian snarled.

“Father, I’ve already told you, a day in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm is equivalent to thirty days in the Canglan Continent. It’s only been a while since I came back from the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm…don’t you worry, I’ll be going back in a few days!”

Qin Nan waved his hand helplessly.

“A few days? How many days has it been already?”

Qin Tian snapped, “If you don’t leave now, don’t ever call me your father again!”

Qin Nan said with a wry smile, “Fine, I’ll be going.”

It seemed like his father was seriously mad this time. He had no choice but to leave.

Qin Tian’s expression calmed down a little. He said following a harrumph, “That’s more like it.”

Qin Nan immediately said, “However, you should spend more time cultivating, at least until you’ve reached the peak Martial Sacred Realm…”

Qin Nan had the option to force Qin Tian’s cultivation to break through to the Martial Monarch Realm or even the Martial God Realm, but the Martial Monarch Realm was an important boundary for a cultivator. If Qin Tian was not experienced enough, it might end up harming his soul instead.

“That isn’t really a huge problem.”

Qin Tian smiled, “However, you must promise me that you will marry as soon as you achieve the Nine Heavens Supreme Realm. You’re going to bring them both back. It’s even better if you can bring a grandchild back too!”

Qin Nan pretended he did not hear it, but he had no choice but to nod stiffly when he saw the glare from Qin Tian.

Qin Nan did not forget to relieve E’Yunsheng who was grasping onto his final breath of his burdens.

“Father, I’ll be going then.”

“Off you go.”

A figure slowly disappeared into the heavy snow.
