Qin Nan said after a slight hesitation, âItâs not a big deal for now. It might be in our favor if he, Zhuang Nan, and the others come after us now.â
âHe should be coming after me if heâs already in the Dao Seeking Land. He wonât reveal my whereabouts to the other factions.â
âEven if he did tell the formidable factions where I am, Xu Ruochen and the others would notice they are on the move. Weâll amend our plans accordingly.â
That being said, Qin Nan still found Supreme South World and Xiang Hunâs ability to track him down a nuisance. He was forced to act passively because of it.
He should figure out a way to deal with it once he was done here.
âIf Xiang Hun dares to come, Iâll teach him a lesson,â Princess Miao Miao rubbed her palms while Jiang Bilan smiled.
Time gradually passed. On the second eveningâ¦
Thirteen ancient cities were emitting shocking auras on the eighteenth branch of the Heaven-Reaching Dao Tree. The cities were quite close to one another.
The gates of Wuxuan City, the city which the Extreme Living Gate had constructed were buzzing loudly as they were being shut. The rogue cultivators who were in the city were told to leave.
The spacious streets were decorated with lights and ribbons. Ancient formations were activated too, emitting pure wisps of Immortal intent, turning the city into a cultivation ground.
The City Lord Hall had countless tables made of immortal jades with delicacies and wines on them. There were also cauldrons with incense made of Supreme Beastsâ blood lit up in the corners.
The Patriarch of the Extreme Living Gate, Daoist Qianlong stood at the entrance in a purple robe. He had an imperious and serious look on his face.
The rest of the Nine Heavens Supremes stood by him in two lines.
âSupreme Wanqing has arrived!â
âSupreme Zhenxuan is here!â
Following the announcement, a glamorous woman and a young man whose face was blurred with Nine Heavens Supremes following behind them arrived at the entrance.
âQianlong, we are already so familiar with one another. Why the stern look on your face?â Supreme Zhenxuan said.
âItâs the first time our factions have joined hands even though Iâm personally close to you. We must treat it seriously,â Daoist Qianlong invited them inside with a gesture.
Everyone entered the hall. Daoist Qianlong took the main seat while Supreme Wanqing and Supreme Zhenxuan sat beside him.
The formation was quite impressive. The Nine Heavens Supremes of three factions had gathered in the hall. Five of them were experts ranked on the Supreme Leaderboard.
After some toasts and polite greetings, Daoist Qianlong placed his cup down and said, âActually, thereâs something else I would like to discuss with you two.â
âJust say it.â
Daoist Qianlong said, âWe have speculated that thereâs a high chance Qin Nan will come to the Dao Seeking Land. He has to achieve the Master Realm within two years, so he wonât miss out on a great scene like this.â
âThere arenât many forbidden areas that are accessible in these two years, so I believe we can make the necessary preparations first to take him down.â
âIâm sure Qin Nan is going to lose this time, but we should decide on how we are going to split his possessions in the end.â
Supreme Wanqing and Supreme Zhenxuan were startled, but they remained silent.
Daoist Qianlong said with a faint smile, âThe seven Heaven Highness Clans are obviously after Qin Nanâs memories, so itâs out of the picture. The Extreme Living Gate is thinking of claiming the Ownerless Heaven Pattern.â
Supreme Wanqing said without any hesitation, âThat wonât do, the Ten Desires Sect is more interested in the Undying Cycle Mountain!â
Supreme Zhenxuan nodded too, âSheâs right, the Undying Cycle Mountain is more valuable than the Ownerless Heaven Pattern in comparison. Not only is it related to the origin force of the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm, rumors say the ten stages it has have unbelievable benefits too.â
He added after a slight hesitation, âFrom what we have learned, the Undying Cycle Mountain is the main reason why Zhou Di was able to raise the Army of Eternity.â
Daoist Qianlong shook his head. His eyes flickered, âLet me ask you two, what is the thing we want the most in a time like this?â
Supreme Wanqing and Supreme Zhenxuan immediately said, âItâs obviously a way to achieve the Heaven Highness Realmâ¦are you saying that the Ownerless Heaven Pattern is the key?â
The two immediately straightened their figures.
âItâs sort of related!â
Daoist Qianlong took a sip of his wine and said, âMany factions are thinking of bringing their souls back to the ancient times to achieve the Heaven Highness Realm. The truth is, the Extreme Living Gate also comes up with the same way a few thousand years ago.â
âHowever, why do we focus so much on the Blue Heavens?â
Several thoughts crossed the minds of Supreme Wanqing and Supreme Zhenxuan. They both stayed quiet.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âNow that our factions have joined hands, I wonât keep it the secret from you. The method of sending souls back to the ancient times might have a chance of working, but the risks are too great. Finding the Blue Heavens is a safer option. Thatâs the first reason.â
âSecond, our founder once discovered a great secret. The Ownerless Heaven Pattern isnât something Zhou Di has refined. Itâs something that dates back to the beginning of the world.â
âItâs how Zhou Di has refined the only Indestructible Flesh of Eternity in the world!â
Daoist Qianlongâs words shocked them.
âHe refined the Indestructible Flesh of Eternity with the Ownerless Heaven Pattern?â
Supreme Wanqing and Supreme Zhenxuan were dumbfounded. They had never heard anything like it before.
âEven if thatâs true, the Ownerless Heaven Pattern is only useful for Xiang Hun. Why is it important to us?â Supreme Zhenxuan asked. One would need the Impenetrable Sacred Flesh to refine the Indestructible Flesh of Eternity.
Only Xiang Hun had the Impenetrable Sacred Flesh.
âCultivator Zhenxuan, you shouldnât arrive at the conclusion so easily. Iâve only explained the second reason. As for the third reasonâ¦â
Daoist Qianlong was about to continue his sentence when he, Supreme Wanqing, Supreme Zhenxuan, and the peak Nine Heavens Supremes glanced at the entrance of the hall after picking up something.
âI heard thereâs a feast going on here. May I have a drink too?â a voice said.
