Chapter 2234: Trio Warriors, Part Two

Qin Nan nodded. He reached his hand out as he unleashed a demonic aura.

Thousands of demonic seals appeared and flowed at the three ancient swords in three separate streams.

Buzz!

The swords unleashed powerful auras and destroyed the demonic seals as if they knew what was going on. 

"Mm?"

The three swords were a lot stronger than he had imagined.

"Suppress them!"

Qin Nan's acupuncture points were activated. Cries of demons echoed in the surroundings.

A confrontation between the man and the three swords took place!

Three hours later, the demonic auras finally suppressed the sword intents.

Demonic runes appeared on the swords as their auras faded away.

"I had to work so hard just to seal them. If I try to refine them forcibly, not only will I fail my attempt, I might sustain serious injuries if they chose to detonate themselves," Qin Nan murmured. He observed the ancient swords closely with the Immortal Eyes of the Divine G.o.d of Battle.

According to the Nine Dragons Seal, the three ancient swords should contain some other secret. The lines on the swords must have something to do with it.

Qin Nan observed the swords for some time, yet he could not discover anything. Zhou Xundao also shook his head.

Qin Nan decided to draw the lines with his Master Force to see if he could combine them.

However, nothing happened even when he tried all the possibilities.

"Maybe it has something to do with their hilts?" Qin Nan thought. He s.h.i.+fted his attention to the hilts. Half an hour later, he shook his head in disappointment.

"Where exactly is the secret?" Qin Nan asked the Nine Dragons Seal, but it remained silent.

Qin Nan tried to provoke the Nine Dragons Seal, but it merely shuddered with a hint of grudge instead of answering his question.

"Qin Nan, I think it's telling you that you will discover something after you have refined the swords," Zhou Xundao said.

"Mm, that might be the case," Qin Nan nodded. He put the swords away instead of wasting his time any further.

There was only a month left until Cang's reincarnation showed up.

He was running short on time. Not only did he have to find the spirit of the Orb of the Heavenly Emperor, he had to either refine it or destroy it before Cang's reincarnation appeared.

To his surprise, the three ancient swords started glowing.

"Mm?"

Qin Nan was startled. He immediately stopped and looked at the swords.

Zhou Xundao shared the same reaction.

The glow was extremely faint at first, but it grew stronger as time pa.s.sed. The swords were shaking vigorously too as their will tried to break free from the demonic seals.

"It's..."

Qin Nan and Zhou Xundao opened their eyes wide.

It felt like the swords were trying to fly in a certain direction as if they were being summoned.

Everything returned to normal after a few minutes.

"Senior Zhou!"

Qin Nan took a deep breath.

"I see!"

Zhou Xundao said sternly, "Even Cang's reincarnation won't be able to summon these swords, leaving only two possibilities!"

"The first possibility is the Trio Warriors were summoning them, but we know the Trio Warriors are dead!"

"The second possibility is the Trio Warriors' reincarnations or their successors, but it's unlikely for them to have successors. I believe they have been reincarnated!"

Qin Nan's eyes glittered.

He also thought it was the Trio Warriors' reincarnations who were summoning the swords. After all, the Trio Warriors were powerful cultivators in the past. It was not impossible for them to be reincarnated, especially since Cang's reincarnation was about to return.

Zhou Xundao said after some time, "Judging from the circ.u.mstances, it's unlikely that the Trio Warriors' reincarnations have returned. Otherwise, they would have met up with the Ancient Taboo and join hands to acquire their artifacts."

"It's possible that their reincarnations are awakening their past memories, or are about to do so!"

Zhou Xundao said after a brief pause, "Qin Nan, we currently have the upper hand. I'll teach you an art now so you can track the Trio Warriors' reincarnations down the next time these swords are reacting!"

"We might be able to learn the whereabouts of the Trio Warriors' reincarnations."

He flicked his finger and transmitted countless words into Qin Nan's mind.

"Got it!"

Qin Nan sat with his legs crossed and started comprehending the art.

They could not afford to overlook the possibility that the Trio Warriors had reincarnated.

Qin Nan fully comprehended the art half an hour later. He quickly practiced it.

However, the three ancient swords were not showing any reaction. He had no choice but to wait patiently.

Time gradually pa.s.sed. Two days later, the three swords started glowing again. Qin Nan also sensed that the reaction was stronger than last time.

Qin Nan immediately performed hand seals and attached them to the swords.

"Reversal!"

A strong aura burst out of his body.

A few moments later, Qin Nan could see a gray image of a vortex through his Divine Sense.

It was emitting a faint light.

Qin Nan immediately sensed something.

A few strings were extending into the distance at a shocking pace.

"Are those..."

Qin Nan's eyes sprang open with astonishment.

"Did you find anything?" Zhou Xundao asked.

"Senior Zhou!"

Qin Nan took a deep breath and said, "I was able to sense something. It's very weak, but I'm quite sure that it's coming from inside this...o...b..of the Heavenly Emperor!"

Zhou Xundao's eyes flickered with astonishment.

Did it mean the Trio Warriors' reincarnations were about to show up in the Orb of the Heavenly Emperor?

Were they among the Rulers of Dao?

However, he clearly remembered that reincarnations would awaken the memories of their past life after they achieved the Master Realm!

"Knowing Cang's power, he must have done something so the Trio Warriors' reincarnations are not limited by the restrictions so they will only awaken their memories after they have achieved the Ruler Realm!" Zhou Xundao murmured.

"Qin Nan!"

Zhou Xundao quickly collected his thoughts and said, "We have to change our plan!"
