Meanwhile, in the Undying Cycle Mountain …
"Qin Nan, what's wrong with the Nine Dragons Seal?"
Zhou Xundao and Jia Yapa asked when they noticed something.
"Qin Nan, what happened?"
Heaven Highness Ling Huang, Princess Miao Miao, and the others looked at Qin Nan worriedly, especially those at the back. Their eyes were filled with worry.
"The artifact in my body warned me not to go to the Blue Dome. It said I would be erased if I entered the Intermediate Profound Realm. It suggested that I take another path to return to the ancient era. "
Qin Nan calmed his thoughts and said.
"Return to the ancient era?"
Zhou Xundao and Jia Yapa's eyes widened.
They had totally forgotten about it.
"Erased? What's going on? "
Heaven Highness Ling Huang and the others asked with startled expressions.
Heaven Highness Ling Huang and the others frowned after hearing Qin Nan's brief explanation. Their expressions were not pleasant.
If that was the case, they would be in big trouble!
Qin Nan said with a smile, "Seniors, why are you being so stubborn? Isn't there another way?"
Heaven Highness Ling Huang shook his head and said, "Qin Nan, you might not know this, but the Shidao Tribe, Mumen Sect, Chen Clan, and the others have been using the same method since around nine thousand years ago."
"However, as far as I know, not only did they not succeed in the past eight or nine thousand years, the great majority of them not only did not increase their cultivations, but instead regressed."
"On top of that, it's extremely risky to return to the ancient era. I heard many Rulers of Dao died right away."
Qin Nan was startled.
Was it that unreliable?
Wait a minute, if the Nine Dragons Seal mentioned it, it should be …
"Seniors, there's no need to worry for now. Why don't we pay the people of the Shidao Tribe a visit?"
Qin Nan said.
"That's fine too, there's always a way out. There's bound to be a chance and hope!"
Heaven Highness Ling Huang let out a relieved sigh and said, "The people of the Shidao Tribe are currently hiding in an ancient forbidden land. I'll bring you there."
After saying that, Heavenly Exalted Ling Huang waved his sleeve. A vast and boundless energy surged out and enveloped the few of them.
Around thirty breaths later, Qin Nan and the others landed in the rift.
The Heavens and Earth in front of them were fiery red. Strangely shaped mountains rose from the ground in the distance and clustered around one another, with all kinds of strange flowers and plants growing continuously.
Qin Nan immediately saw a peerless formation looming over the place, isolating the place from the outside world.
Not only that, but each and every one of the mountains, even a single rock had been set up with a world-shaking seal that contained extremely powerful power.
Even a peak Ruler would tried trying trying trying trying to break through the formation had a God of Dao was trying to break through it.
"Chief Xiang Yuan, Qin Nan has come with me. I hope you can open the door for us."
Heaven Highness Ling Huang said.
In less than a breath's time after he finished his sentence, the five mountains in the middle began to tremble vigorously, resulting in a rumbling sound and a huge cloud of dust being blown into the air.
The mountains were pulled apart, revealing a giant golden door with the word 'Shidao' written on it.
The door was an ancient Dao-Seeking Weapon!
More than twenty figures walked out of the door. Five of them were young men and women in the Master Realm. One of them had met Qin Nan before.
They were the younger generation of the Shidao Tribe!
On top of them, there were more than ten peak Masters of Dao among them.
At the center of the group was a white-haired, decrepit old man with cloudy eyes. His face was pale, and his aura was weak. He was supported by a middle-aged man with a square face who was a peak Ruler. The middle-aged man was walking slowly, and it seemed like he was having a hard time doing so.
"Mm?"
Qin Nan immediately noticed the aura the old man was emitting. He was in the peak Ruler Realm, yet his life force was extremely weak. It was obvious that he was severely injured.
"Clan Leader Xiang Yuan, what happened to you? Didn't you … "
Heaven Highness Ling Huang asked with a startled expression.
"Senior Ling Huang, I thought I was fine after being hit by Heaven Highness Lu Fang's palm, but I didn't expect it to act up again in the past few days. It's invisible and has consumed a lot of my life force."
Xiang Yuan let out a sigh. He came to a stop and brought his fists together at Qin Nan, "Cultivator Qin Nan, I'm sorry, I'm not feeling well. I can't welcome you properly."
Qin Nan was startled. He quickly returned the greeting and said, "Senior, I can go and see you if you're not feeling well. Why do you have to welcome me in person? Aren't you going to shorten my lifespan? "
Xiang Yuan coughed and forced a smile, "It's only right. In some ways, you're the real Clan Leader of the Shidao Tribe!"
The middle-aged man, the Masters of Dao, and the young men and women looked at Qin Nan with complicated looks.
Qin Nan was startled. Before he could say a word, Xiang Yuan said softly, "Cultivator Qin Nan, before we start, the Shidao Tribe would like to apologize to you three times."
"The first one is when the Shidao Tribe decided to kill you after learning you're the successor of the Young Clan Leader!"
"The second one is when the Shidao Tribe didn't lend you a hand when you were in danger."
"The third one is when we placed the Young Clan Leader's memorial tablet in the tomb of the Shidao Tribe a few months ago."
The people of the Shidao Tribe straightened their faces and bowed deeply at Qin Nan upon hearing the words.
Heaven Highness Ling Huang and the others exchanged glances with one another.
"Cultivator Qin Nan, please don't misunderstand us. We aren't trying to play the emotional card to get more benefits from you. It's not because the Shidao Tribe has declined. We're only lowering our heads because we need your help."
Xiang Yuan said with a sigh, "Our Shidao Tribe has been on a decline since the ancient battle ended. Each generation is weaker than the previous one. Many seniors and I have been thinking about why we treated the Young Clan Leader that way. "
"The Young Clan Leader has acknowledged someone else as his master to pursue his dream. It's indeed inappropriate, but why did we treat the Young Clan Leader as a disgrace and treat him as a traitor?"
