Chapter 2190: The Art of The Immortal Demon, Part One
Zhuang Nan told the formidable factions another piece of great news during the meeting. The Heaven-Reaching Dao Tree was going to blossom in a year and a half. It was three and a half years earlier than scheduled.
The news soon spread across the Dao Seeking Land.
The factions and rogue cultivators immediately held meetings and changed their plans.
Meanwhile, the Westernmost Land was perfectly calm.
The rest of the cultivators had finished learning the Synchronization of the Minds.
They did not feel any special after learning it, yet Qin Nan began to feel minor changes in many aspects. The changes would slowly increase in time.
Qin Nan taught the rest of the battling formations to everyone. He proceeded to explain his comprehension of the formations.
The Nine Heavens Supremes had different levels of Martial Skill Talents. Some were quite ordinary, thus it would take them a long time to fully comprehend the formations. Qin Nan demonstrated the first formation by performing the hand seals for it, the Six Suns Ancient-Traversing Formation.
Qin Nan believed it was barely a battling formation, as it was mainly used to help the cultivators cooperate better through the formation of the Six Suns.
If they could master the formation, it would significantly strengthen them in battles.
One of the badges Qin Nan had begun to glow. It was a message from Supreme Chang Xiao.
Qin Nan took a quick look at it and grinned coldly.
"Xiang Hun, how nice of you! Unfortunately, you have no idea there's another flower which is comparable to the Flower of Eternity."
Qin Nan took a deep breath. The day when the Heaven-Reaching Dao Tree blossom would be earlier under Princess Miao Miao and Jiang Bilan's influence. It would happen in less than a year.
It would take Xiang Hun and the factions by surprise.
However, the situation was still very dangerous. He must do everything to grow stronger before the time came.
"I can only spend half a year on comprehending the battling formations at most. I should use the rest of the time to venture deeper into the Westernmost Land. I might find..." Qin Nan murmured.
There were shocking fortunate encounters deeper into the Westernmost Land.
Qin Nan's eyes froze all of a sudden.
He could sense a formidable power descending upon him and changing the scenery around him.
"What's happening?"
Qin Nan tensed. The twelve Arts of Dao Seeking in his body activated on their own.
The scenes changed rapidly. After a few moments, Qin Nan's surroundings turned completely white.
Qin Nan looked up and was startled.
A magnificent tree stood firmly in the distance. It was the Heaven-Reaching Dao Tree.
Qin Nan suddenly felt the power of his eyes growing, allowing him to see through the trunk of the Heaven-Reaching Dao Tree.
His eyes noticed a pond and an altar respectively.
"The Indestructible Force? The Art of the Immortal Demon?"
Qin Nan was even more shocked.
He had seen the scene before. It happened when he was picturing the Dao Tree when he first came to the Dao Seeking Land.
However, the scene was happening again when he was not doing anything.
Another shocking sight took place.
The wisp of Indestructible Force turned into illusionary dragons and soared into the sky from the pond, as if they were trying to break through everything.
Qin Nan's heart pounded heavily. His body was shaking. It felt like something that belonged to him was returning to his body.
The scene had no sound, but Qin Nan's ears were filled with deafening roars as the wisp of Indestructible Force came down from the sky and went back to the pond.
An invisible barrier had stopped it from leaving.
That was not the end of it.
On the other hand, pitch-black words were glowing brightly on the altar.
They too were soaring into the sky similar to the wisp of Indestructible Force.
Qin Nan had the same feeling again, which was followed by the deafening roars.
It too was stopped by the same barrier!
However, it did not return to the altar like the wisp of Indestructible Force. The lights grew stronger and eventually broke through the barrier. They traveled a great distance and shone upon Qin Nan.
"Is that..."
Qin Nan's soul shuddered.
The demonic aura that was moving around like a snake in his heart burst out of his body and entered Qin Nan's mind at a shocking speed to merge with the fragmented crystals.
The crystals shook vigorously and emitted a blinding light.
BANG!
A great lightning stroke amid the mystical changes.
A voice as bright as the chime of a bell echoed in Qin Nan's Divine Sense, as if a powerful existence had risen and was speaking to Qin Nan.
"Is this the Art of the Immortal Demon?" Qin Nan was dazzled.
What just happened?
Why did the Art of the Immortal Demon return to him all of a sudden?
According to Moxie, he would have to claim the art himself. It did not react when he went to the Dao Seeking Land, yet why did it come on its own now?
"Is it because of Xiang Hun, Princess, and Jiang Bilan?"
Qin Nan thought of a possibility.
After all, Princess Miao Miao and Jiang Bilan's version of the Flower of Eternity was slightly different from the real Flower of Eternity. The change only took place when the two Flowers of Eternity were unleashing their power.
The wisp of Indestructible Force tried to return to his body too.
However, they were restrained by a mysterious power. It was only a single wisp of Indestructible Force, but the Art of the Immortal Demon was complete, hence the former had failed to break through the barrier, but the latter managed to do so.
