Chapter 1540 - Campaign of the Nine Heavens
Qin Nan was not in a rush to make his way to the Nine Heavens. He decided to keep Qin Tian company instead.
A day in the Nine Heavens was the same as a month in the Canglan Continent. Even though his departure did not necessarily mean parting forever, he would have fewer chances to return.
"Qin Nan, I've attended to my businesses here in Canglan."
Empress Feiyue's voice suddenly appeared in his mind.
An illusionary red string appeared on his wrist with a faint glow.
For some reason, even though the Tribulation of Three Lifetimes had finished, the red string that represented her present life remained on Qin Nan's hand.
"If you encounter any danger, you can contact me through the red string. I can help you resolve a dangerous situation once."
Empress Feiyue's voice remained cold and domineering.
Her cultivation would no longer be suppressed in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm.
"Sure."
Qin Nan accepted it without hesitation.
Even though the Tribulation of Three Lifetimes had come to an end, he felt like the empress was already his friend after what they had been through.
"According to some strange records, our Canglan Continent belongs to the Secondary Lower Realm. Apparently, there are many other worlds and continents in the Secondary Lower Realm. Since you're free, why don't you bring me and visit these places?"
Qin Tian said as a thought crossed his mind.
Qin Nan would surely not reject the suggestion. They silently left the Canglan Continent.
The father and son visited the Huoyuan Continent, Lingxiao Continent, etc. and saw countless scenic views.
During this time, authorities who were incredibly familiar with Qin Nan took turns to bid farewell to Qin Nan as they departed for the Nine Heavens.
Qin Nan transmitted his thoughts to Gong Yang, Tang Qingshan, Sima Kong, and the others too.
Gong Yang had no interest in the Nine Heavens. He had decided to take over the Nine Words Ancient Sea.
Sima Kong and Longhu shook their heads as soon as he mentioned about the Nine Heavens. The former only wanted to become the G.o.d of Thieves. He never thought of becoming a Thief Immortal.
In simpler words, they were utterly scared of visiting the Nine Heavens, as they could die easily someday. They preferred to stay in the Secondary Lower Realm and enjoy their carefree lives.
As for Tang Qingshan, he had already gone into seclusion to attempt to break through to the Martial G.o.d Realm.
He was left all alone in the world, with only a black saber keeping him company. He decided to bring the saber along and witness the spectacular world.
There were lots of other close friends, for example, the two hounds and Skeleton Xiao Hong, Xuan Yue, Ao Cangtian, and others; they all made their own decisions.
Qin Nan did not say much. Even though he was quite unwilling, he knew everyone had their own life to choose.
It was enough to live out the life they desired.
Besides, even when they were separated by time and distance, the friends.h.i.+p they shared would last forever.
What worth mentioning was, the inner disciple of the Lu Clan, Lu Tianji who faked his death by hiding under the ground during the G.o.d Horoscope Contest regained his freedom after the battlefield was destroyed. He was dumbfounded when he learned what happened, thus he quickly changed his name and focused on cultivating to ascend to the Nine Heavens.
"I should find a way to store the crystal."
Qin Nan withdrew his thoughts.
The crystal was rather huge. It was impossible to bring it everywhere he went.
He could place it inside the storage bag, but it lacked Qi inside it. He had no choice but to build a new s.p.a.ce.
"Mm?"
Qin Nan was startled.
As soon as the thought crossed his mind, the mysterious Ownerless Heaven Pattern in his mind emitted a mystical glow.
"Does that mean..."
Qin Nan had an idea. He directed his G.o.d force into the pattern.
Buzz!
A remarkable energy reached out like a giant hand and grabbed the crystal, before pulling it deep into the pattern.
The Ownerless Heaven Pattern consisted of a little world inside it!
On top of that, Qin Nan clearly saw both Jiang Bilan and the princess nurtured by the energy inside it.
"It looks like I'll have to learn more about this Ownerless Heaven Pattern when I have the chance!"
Qin Nan mumbled to himself. It must be something extraordinary since even the Beast Hide Drawing would take the initiative to ask him about it.
Time gradually pa.s.sed. A few years had pa.s.sed since the war.
The path of cultivation in the Canglan Continent shone brightly like never before as more experts were born.
Qin Nan and Qin Tian had visited most of the places in the Secondary Lower Realm.
"Kid, are you seriously thinking of keeping me company? Until the day I die?"
Qin Tian suddenly wore a stern look.
"Father..."
Qin Nan was about to speak when Qin Tian forcibly interrupted and even smacked his head heavily.
"You should know that everyone has their own life to live. Even your father and you have different lives too."
Qin Tian snapped unpleasantly, "We have traveled across different worlds, yet we have only touched upon the surface without truly understanding and enjoying them."
"I have decided to visit the places again on my own. As for you, it's time for you to depart to the Nine Heavens for your campaign."
When Qin Nan heard the words, the battle blood in his body began to flow excitedly. However, he did not say much. A few days later, he dropped to his knees in front of Qin Tian.
Thud thud thud, following three kowtows, he held his fists together.
"Father, take care."
Under Qin Tian's proud gaze, Qin Nan whose backbone was firm enough to support a whole sky left decisively. He returned to the Canglan Continent and prepared for his ascension.
As Qin Tian mentioned, his destiny was to conquer the Nine Heavens!
There were countless cultivators in the world, yet he had acquired the Divine Battle Spirit, the flesh of the Divine G.o.d of Battle. Even the reputable Divine G.o.d of Battle had acknowledged him as its master. He considered himself extremely lucky, whether the whole thing was planned or it was only a coincidence.
As such, he was eager to walk a path that people would look up to.
It was just like the Canglan Continent. Everyone thought becoming the top one Martial Monarch of all times was only a myth, yet he had done it, and even became the strongest Martial G.o.d of all times.
He would be walking on the same path once he went to the Nine Heavens.
He would defeat countless geniuses, become an immortal, help the princess come back to life, overthrow the imperious rulers, and become unbeatable.
Perhaps his ambition was a bit too wild and magnificent, but...
He was still young, the battle blood in his body had not gone cold.
He still had the chance to try, to fight. Otherwise, he would only be filled with regret.
"Nine Heavens Immortal Realm, I, Qin Nan, am coming!"
Qin Nan stood in the Canglan Continent and looked into the rift. He fully unleashed his G.o.d force.
Stormy clouds appeared in the sky within the blink of an eye.
Unlike the Tribulation of the Martial Monarch Realm and Martial G.o.d Realm, the tribulation would not grow stronger according to the person's cultivation.
It was like a giant door. Once it was shattered, the person would be able to proceed to the Nine Heavens.
BANG!
Qin Nan rose into the sky and threw a punch. He immediately shattered the stormy clouds into pieces. An enormous force poured down and encapsulated his figure, before he vanished into thin air.
