A Sudden Murderous Intent
The few words calmed Qin Nan's heart as he let out a sigh of relief.
If the Ten Thousand Layer Immortal Pagoda did not have any information about the three natural resources, he would have no idea where to look for them.
"How can I know where they are?"
Qin Nan asked after withdrawing his thoughts.
"You should know how precious the Immortal Blessing resources are. Besides, I don't mind telling you that the Eight-Eyed Yin and Yang Flower and the Immortal Repelling Tree are in the same place. It's very convenient."
Xu Lai said with squinted eyes, "Of course, the Ten Thousand Layer Immortal Pagoda never hides the truth either. Even though we know where the Supreme Heart Fruit is, we can't guarantee its location. "
He added, "After all, the Supreme Heart Fruit isn't like the other Immortal Blessing resources. It's very special. It's extremely rare to find it. Even some Nine Heavens Supremes are interested in it."
Qin Nan nodded.
He had studied the Supreme Heart Fruit. Its effect was quite simple. It contained a strong Dao intent and a hint of the will of a Nine Heavens Supreme.
It would greatly benefit a Nine Heavens Supreme's cultivation after refining it. It might even help them achieve a breakthrough.
"Senior Xu Lai, just tell me what you want."
Qin Nan asked.
"As for the condition, it's very simple. Give me the saber in your hand. That being said, the saber in your hand is worth a lot more than the three Immortal Blessing resources. We can compensate you with other things too, depending on what you need. "
Xu Lai was like a cunning fox, "The two places where the three natural resources are located are extremely dangerous. It's very dangerous for you to go there. We can send a Peerless Ruler to help you."
Qin Nan's lips twisted upon hearing the words.
This Xu Lai had been eyeing his saber!
"Senior Xu Lai, to be honest, the saber is extremely important to me too. There's no way I'll give it away."
Qin Nan took a deep breath.
"I see …"
Xu Lai's eyes flickered with disappointment. He said after a slight ponder, "If that's the case, why don't you take out something valuable? I can appraise it for you. If it's valuable enough, I'll trade it with you."
Qin Nan released the Heaven-Repairing Cauldron from his body without any hesitation.
The cauldron was no longer as huge as it used to be after Qin Nan refined it. It was only three zhang tall now. It was emitting a mystical glow. The inside of the cauldron was pitch-black. The terrifying beast that was comparable to a Peerless Ruler was nowhere to be seen.
Apart from the Ownerless Heaven Pattern and the Heaven-Shattering Saber, the cauldron was the only thing.
"Is this … the Heaven-Repairing Cauldron?"
Xu Lai took the Cauldron.
"How is it?"
Qin Nan could not help but Was Thousand.
"Wasn 'Cauldron Cauldron? Why does it still exist still exist?
Xu Lai murmured to himself. As he collected his thoughts, he glanced at Qin Nan with a strange look, "You're so lucky, to be able to get your hands on it! This cauldron is nothing ordinary. It's on par with your saber. You can trade it with me. "
"But, are you sure? If so, we'll sign a contract. "
He wore a stern look.
Even though he failed to secure Qin Nan's saber and fulfill the senior's wish, it would still be a great contribution if he managed to secure the Heaven-Repairing Cauldron.
Perhaps his position as the Fifth Elder that he had been holding for a few decades might even be promoted.
"If that's the case, I'll surely …"
Qin Nan was about to accept the offer.
However, before he could finish, a deep roar suddenly came from the Heaven-Repairing Cauldron. It sounded like the enormous beast was infuriated. It was asking Qin Nan if he was willing to trade it with him.
Not only that, but an icy cold voice also abruptly sounded in his mind.
"The cauldron is still quite valuable. There's no need to trade it with me. I can give you something that can trade for the three herbs."
It was none other than Empress Feiyue.
"Mm?"
Qin Nan was startled. He said with a wry smile, "Copper mirror, I've asked you for a lot of help. It's not a trivial matter either. How could you …"
Even though he was reluctant to part with the Heaven-Repairing Cauldron, he was not willing to trouble the copper mirror. After all, they were only friends. He could not just take everything from her.
"Since when did you learn how to be polite? If you keep being polite, you can just remove the Red String of Three Lifetimes. There's no need for us to keep in touch. "
Empress Feiyue's voice turned even colder.
"This …"
Qin Nan was left speechless.
She was blaming him even though he did not ask for her help?
"You'll have to do me another favor."
Empress Feiyue said coldly. Her tone contained an imperious aura that did not allow anyone to reject her.
"Err … fine."
Qin Nan's lips twisted. Despite his reluctance, he had no choice but to accept the offer.
If he were to reject the offer, knowing Empress Feiyue's personality, she might really ignore him in the future.
"Show him the symbol."
Following Empress Feiyue's words, a strange symbol appeared in Qin Nan's mind.
The Red String of Three Lifetimes fell silent too.
Qin Nan took a few glances at it before collecting his thoughts. He withdrew the Heaven-Repairing Cauldron and said apologetically, "Senior Xu Lai, I'm sorry, a friend of mine asked me not to trade the cauldron. But don't worry, I have something else. "
Xu Lai was not angry. The smile on his face remained the same. He was quite intrigued, "Oh? You have something else? Show it to me. "
He had stayed at the Ten Thousand Layer Immortal Pagoda for a few hundred years. He had done lots of deals, yet it was rare for him to make a huge deal. He had also seen many people who went back on their word after signing a contract.
Qin Nan closed his eyes for a few moments. He unleashed the immortal force in his body and gathered it on the tip of his finger. He began to draw in the air silently, summoning a strange symbol.
Strangely, the symbol was clearly made of immortal force, yet it felt extremely real as if it was tangible.
"Senior Xu Lai, what do you think of the symbol?"
Qin Nan asked after he finished drawing the symbol.
Even though he was asking, he had already made up his mind.
If Empress Feiyue was willing to give him the symbol, it must be something extraordinary. He could easily trade it for the information of the three resources.
"The symbol, could it be …"
Sure enough, when Xu Lai saw this, his pupils immediately shrank, and his face was full of shock.
However, a few moments later, Xu Lai collected his thoughts. His expression turned icy as he snapped, "Qin Nan, die!"
He unleashed his immortal force as he performed a hand seal. Several ancient swords with the shape of snakes appeared in the air and loomed at Qin Nan and the Blood-Eye Human Immortal.
Qin Nan and the Blood-Eye Human Immortal were dumbfounded.
Qin Nan, in particular, was confused. Why would Xu Lai attack him after seeing the symbol?
However, despite his confusion, Qin Nan immediately collected his thoughts when he sensed the murderous intent. His right arm transformed into the Heaven-Shattering Saber.
"Break!"
Qin Nan's blood hair drifted in the wind as he slashed forward.
The snow-white saber intent shattered the snake swords into pieces like a strike from the Heavens and Earth.
"Xu Lai, what are you doing? Why are you trying to kill me all of a sudden? "
Qin Nan's expression turned cold too.
"Trying to kill you all of a sudden? Do you really have to ask me that? Not bad, you're still able to improve your cultivation so quickly even though your Dao Foundation has been destroyed! However, you are going to die today! "
Xu Lai's aura skyrocketed. The room began to shake vigorously under the pressure of the first-layer Heaven Immortal Realm.
"Black Serpent Sword Art!"
He began to move. His movements were eerie, as if they were there yet they were not. Several ancient snake swords appeared in his hand out of nowhere. The snake swords kept transforming as he moved, as if they were real ancient serpents.
"You're being unreasonable, don't blame me for showing no mercy!"
Qin Nan's eyes were engulfed in white flames as his aura became incredibly ferocious, as if he was the only source of light between the Heavens and Earth. He immediately slashed forward with the saber in his hand, resulting in an overwhelming Saber Intent.
Fifth form of the Divine God of Battle, Dao-Jolting Saber Art.
BANG BANG BANG!
A series of explosions took place as a terrifying shockwave spread in all directions. Even the room made of ancient materials was shattered into pieces by the shockwave and turned into dust.
Under Qin Nan's imperious saber intent, all the ancient serpents were destroyed in just three breaths' time. Xu Lai's figure was forced to back away as he quickly executed his Dao Arts to defend himself.
However, he was like a turtle trapped in a jar. He had no chance of escaping!
