Chapter 1729: My Master
Meanwhile, inside the house made of blue rocks...
Qin Nan was not aware that the Dao-Melting Immortal Flames inside his body were being unleashed on their own. The flames turned into a few hundred fiery dragons swimming in the middle of the Qianyuan Lake. They opened their mouths and refined the water of the lake.
Wisps of formidable immortal force entered Qin Nan's body once again.
It was as if Qin Nan had turned into a bottomless abyss that continued to absorb all energy that was available, yet the immortal force inside his body showed no sign of increasing.
He had no clue where the formidable force ended up at.
"What's happening now?"
The Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor who was in the Exquisite Jade Supreme Lake activated his Wuji Demon Eyes trying to observe what was going on, yet he was interrupted by some presence.
It was as if a hand was tickling his heart when he saw the boiling Qianyuan Lake. He had a strong urge to find out what was happening.
He had always been a curious person.
"Forget it! Nothing good would happen if I stay too close to Qin Nan, that little prick."
The Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor withheld his urge and proceeded to refine the little jade crystals. He also made up his mind to leave the place tomorrow, just in case he ended up falling into the hands of that Rudao b**ch.
Whoosh!
However, he was totally unaware that Supreme Rudao and the man in a gray robe had entered the Exquisite Jade Supreme Lake and went straight for the Qianyuan Lake at a shocking pace.
"It's indeed extremely difficult to reforge the Dao Foundation. He has absorbed so many Immortal Blessing resources, yet he had barely comprehended the Dao still...mm?"
Supreme Rudao exclaimed when she saw the empty place. However, her eyes were fixed on the Divine Battle Spirit behind Qin Nan.
"Could this be..."
The eyes of the man in a gray robe flickered when he saw the Divine Battle Spirit.
Even after so many years, it felt as if the shocking incident, the terrifying battle, and the toasts they gave one another amid the rain of blood had only happened not long ago.
"You're right, he's the Fifth Immortal among the Ten Immortals, and my Big Brother too. I can't mention his name now, but people normally refer to him as the Divine God of Battle."
The man in a gray robe said after some time.
"It's really him!"
Supreme Rudao's eyes glittered. She had learned a lot about the Divine God of Battle when she was still in the hidden sky in the first Small Immortal Realm.
Buzz!
Meanwhile, Qin Nan's body began to shake vigorously. The fiery dragons suddenly enlarged, increasing the rate of them refining the Qianyuan Lake.
Qin Nan continued to absorb the strong immortal force and the will of the Heavens and Earth like a bottomless pit.
However, his body began to show some changes. The blue light he was emitting grew stronger while accumulating toward his heart.
Dong!
A bell chime echoed in the surroundings once again.
Qin Nan gradually emitted a wisp of Dao intent. It was extremely vague, yet it was like a spark amid the flying dust.
"He's probing the Dao Realm! Most people could only achieve the Minor Success Stage of the Dao Realm after probing it, but since he's rebuilding the Dao Foundation, it won't take him long to achieve the Greater Success Stage of the Dao Realm."
Supreme Rudao's eyes flickered as she spoke, "If he's lucky enough, he might be able to achieve the Perfect Stage of the Dao Realm straightaway."
As soon as she finished the sentence, the Dao intent that Qin Nan was emitting grew ten times stronger. The blue Dao glow reappeared again from his body.
However, that was not the end still. The Dao intent continued to grow stronger. In just a few seconds, it had already reached the Greater Success Stage of the Dao Realm!
An unexpected change took place.
The formidable Dao intent and the brilliant Dao glow suddenly weakened and dimmed as if they were struck by an invisible giant hand.
Their presence barely matched that of the Minor Success Stage of the Dao Realm, let alone the Greater Success Stage of the Dao Realm.
"Mm? What just happened?"
The man in a gray robe and Supreme Rudao frowned.
There were many experts who had successfully rebuilt their Dao Foundation after it was destroyed in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm.
As such, they were quite familiar with the process of rebuilding the Dao Foundation. Normally, the Dao intent and the Dao glow would keep growing, but why did Qin Nan's suddenly weaken?
Crack!
It sounded as if something had suddenly cracked open.
The blue Dao glow that Qin Nan was emitting surprisingly cracked apart. As the pieces fell off, a light ray with three different colors burst out from the cracks.
"Could this be...the Three-Colored Dao Glow?"
Supreme Rudao's eyes flickered with astonishment.
Normally, the Dao glow that people emitted was blue, but according to some rumors from ancient times, the Dao glow of some crazily talented people consisted of three colors.
She always thought it was just a legend, but it turned out to be the truth.
"It's reasonable for his Dao glow to have three colors!"
The man in a gray robe glanced at Qin Nan and let out a sigh, "Young Master, forgive me, I can't call you master like Big Brother did. After all, I still couldn't accept the things that you've done."
"You have remarkable talents, yet you were too engrossed in the charm of women. As such, I didn't stop Second Brother from taking away your memories. Please forgive me."
"On top of that, I had no choice but to destroy your Dao Foundation. A blind woman with terrifying cultivation had warned me that you should not ascend as an immortal with the next hundred years."
"I also found the old man from Dongji Immortal Sea to tell your fortune. He also mentioned that it's too dangerous for you to ascend as an immortal now. Unfortunately, I've woken up a little too late. You still managed to ascend before I could intervene, so I had to destroy your Dao Foundation."
"You are on your own now. I have done everything I could...after all..."
The man in a gray robe said in a deep voice.
Supreme Rudao fell into deep thoughts. She was wondering who Qin Nan really was if the man was calling him Young Master.
She suddenly felt something amid her thoughts. Her eyes widened as she took a glance at Qin Nan. Her voice was filled with astonishment, "Old...old man, take a closer look...I think...his Dao glow has seven colors..."
The man in a gray robe was startled. He glanced forward with a frown.
Why would Qin Nan's Dao glow consist of seven colors?
Could it be that Young Master had already reached that level in the past?
That's possible too. After all, Young Master's talents were remarkable.
Whoosh!
A strong force burst out of Qin Nan's body. The surroundings immediately changed.
The structure had disappeared. It was replaced by a starry galaxy.
"What in the world..."
The man in a gray robe was dumbfounded.
A few moments later, he realized something after hearing Supreme Rudao's gasp in surprise. He quickly looked ahead and saw a throne in the distance.
On the throne sat a magnificent figure that was beyond what words could describe.
"It's really him!"
The man in a gray robe let out a long sigh.
Whoosh!
The magnificent figure suddenly rose from the throne and strutted forward. The entire galaxy would tremble whenever he took a step.
"Your servant!"
The magnificent figure halted in his track. Under the man and Supreme Rudao's surprised gaze, he fell to his knee in front of Qin Nan.
"Is at your service, my master!"
The words served as a great thunderclap in the man's ears.
"How is this possible!? Why would he call Young Master his master? That's impossible! Which means...Qin Nan's past life isn't Young Master, he's..."
The man began to tremble as he realized something.
"Your servant will forever wait for the return of my master at the Undying Cycle Mountain!"
The magnificent figure ignored the man's reaction. His thunderous voice echoed in the starry galaxy.
