The Opening of the Immortal-Slaying River
The two walked for a long time. They came to a stop when they found a secluded cave. They set up some forbidding auras to conceal their presence.
Qin Nan sat with his legs crossed and activated the Battle Dao Immortal Manuscript.
When he took a glimpse at the tip of the Chiedao Halberd, he felt a mysterious connection between him and the halberd.
There was still some time left. He decided to take a closer look at it. He might be able to learn something from it.
As the day of the opening of the Immortal-Slaying River approached, more cultivators came from all directions. It was possible to sense powerful auras sweeping across the sky.
Meng Jiugong's Flesh of Good Luck finally had a breakthrough. The red glow he was emitting had become a lot stronger like flowing water.
A day and a night later, the disciples of the Nine Palace Golden Immortal Sect delivered various news.
"Holy crap, Qin Nan, almost half of the people from the two factions in the Death Zone, the Hall of Rogue Immortals and the Heaven Will Pavilion are here! The people of the fourteen Supreme Daoism factions, the Hundred Primordial Tribes, the Shidao Tribe, the Mumen Sect, and the Ancient Taboo are here too! "
Meng Jiugong took a quick glance. Even though he was mentally prepared, he was still astounded. He said, "Let me read the names of the Exceptional Geniuses, Jiang Ni, Nie Wufeng, Xiang Tianqi, Lu Qingyin, Tang Tianjun, Feng Wuheng, Su Nu, and the five rebels of the Ancient Taboo …"
Meng Jiugong read out more than eighty names, and they were only the ones he knew so far.
After all, many Exceptional Geniuses had come to the Death Zone a few dozen years ago, or even a few hundred years ago. The number of Exceptional Geniuses had increased significantly after the first Sacred Area of the Heavens and Earth.
In addition to it, the Peerless Rulers who had improved from the Minor Success Stage of the Dao Realm to the Greater Success Stage were not included.
Not only were these Peerless Rulers on par with the Exceptional Geniuses, they might even be a lot stronger than them.
This grand event could be described as a place full of crouching tigers and hidden dragons!
Qin Nan unleashed his battle intent and emitted a blue glow. The forbidding auras that were isolating themselves from the crowd began to crack loudly.
In the end, Qin Nan withdrew his aura, closed his eyes, and remained silent.
Meng Jiugong could roughly sense Qin Nan's current state, so he fell silent.
Time trickled by. No one knew how much time had passed.
Boom!
A shocking explosion echoed across the Heavens and Earth.
"It's open!"
Meng Jiugong blurted out.
Although all of this had nothing to do with him fundamentally, he couldn't help but feel a little excited when he thought of the grand scene that was about to unfold.
Qin Nan nodded and flew into the distance together with him.
He could see countless cultivators inside the palaces in the cities. Many of them were floating in the distance.
As for the Immortal Slaying River, beams of dazzling light erupted and shot straight to the end of the world. They emitted thunderous explosions, causing the wind and clouds to change and the aura to surge. It was as if the former was venting some kind of resentment.
The situation lasted for more than a hundred breaths before the light pillars scattered into light dots and surged in all directions. It was an astonishing sight.
Following it, deep drum beats came from deep inside the Death Zone. The water of the Immortal Slaying River began to boil vigorously. Following a series of splashing sounds, several stone pillars appeared.
The stone pillars had the faces of ferocious beasts with ancient auras. They were covered in obscure runes, yet they were unaffected by the terrifying power of the river.
"The path has appeared, let's go!"
The cultivators immediately unleashed their powerful auras, which turned into various kinds of light rays and sprang forward.
The surrounding void was shaken by these auras. The rapid sounds of the air breaking gathered together and were incomparably loud.
Such a scene was like the eruption of an unprecedented beast tide.
Meng Jiugong's heart skipped a beat. He blurted out, "Qin Nan, should we go later? If we go there now, the people of those factions will surely notice us … AH! "
Meng Jiugong screamed before he could finish his sentence.
The reason being that Qin Nan had grabbed his body and dragged him forward at a shocking pace.
Now that the Immortal Slaying River had appeared, no one knew what was going on under the Halberd of Dao, thus it was important to take the initiative first.
He had already backed away to avoid unnecessary trouble, but there was no need for him to do so now!
"Qin Nan, you've shown up!"
Jiang Ni was the first to notice his presence among the cultivators. His aura tripled when he saw Qin Nan flying toward him. His aura accumulated on the ancient sword.
"Qin Nan!"
Nie Wufeng, Xiang Tianqi, Feng Wuheng, Lu Qingyin, Su Nu, and the rest of the Exceptional Geniuses soon noticed Qin Nan.
Qin Nan did not hesitate. He executed two Arts of Dao Seeking simultaneously.
"Disciples, no matter what happens, our priority is to kill Qin Nan!"
Xiang Tianqi and the rest of the Exceptional Geniuses transmitted their thoughts.
Some factions wanted to kill Qin Nan, some wanted to suppress Qin Nan, and some had other plans, but either way, they had to defeat Qin Nan first!
The Peerless Rulers immediately fixed their eyes on Qin Nan. They quickly performed hand seals and unleashed all kinds of Dao Arts into the sky like immortal dragons.
"Holy crap!"
Meng Jiugong's face turned pale. He was trembling in fear.
As the future Sect Leader of the Nine Palace Golden Immortal Sect, his wisdom was extraordinary. However, there were just too many Dao Techniques that were coming at him. They were densely packed and uncountable.
Even a Nine Heavens Supreme in the early stage would struggle to survive the attacks, let alone them!
Qin Nan immediately executed the Sky-Stride Blow. He moved rapidly in the sky and dodged the Dao Arts while firing wisps of saber intents at the same time.
Even though many cultivators were attacking him, they did not surround him. The area in the sky was so huge that he did not even have a chance to unleash the power of the Flower of Eternity.
"Qin Nan, I won't let it happen again!"
Lu Qingyin transmitted her thoughts. Her eyes were fixed on Qin Nan as she performed a series of hand seals.
It was obvious that she had come up with a plan to deal with the Flower of Eternity!
Qin Nan wore a calm smile. His blue-red hair drifted in the wind. He remained silent.
Buzz!
At this moment, an incomparably terrifying sharpness rushed to the end of the sky. Everything within a radius of hundreds of thousands of miles suddenly turned pitch-black as thunder rumbled.
