Chapter 1965 - The Return of the King
“Damn it, I don’t believe it, let’s keep going!”
The spirit envoys who completely lost their images were not aware of Qin Nan’s arrival. They were yelling continuously, some of their faces even reddened with excitement as they placed their bets.
Qin Nan’s lips twisted. He finally said after some time, “Err, excuse me…”
The spirit envoys froze. They quickly put the dices, beast legs, and immortal wines away and wore cold expressions.
“A cultivator has arrived. Go receive him at once!”
“I’ll go check on the Five Great Seeds!”
The spirit envoys immediately went into serious mode. They vanished into thin air without looking at Qin Nan.
The rest of the spirit envoys seemed troubled. They were about to turn around and apologize but were startled when they saw Qin Nan’s face.
“F**k me, it ain’t master!”
The cold expressions on the spirit envoys’ faces collapsed instantly. They let out relived sighs.
“Qin Nan, it looks like these spirit envoys are taking orders from someone. It’s very likely that a Realm Spirit exists here.”
“Besides, judging from the reincarnation which one of the spirit envoys mentioned just then, it’s likely that they used to be cultivators of the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm,” Empress Feiyue said coldly.
She had learned a lot of information just from the minor details.
“Wait a second, something isn’t right!”
The spirit envoys soon came to their senses. Their eyes flickered with astonishment, “How did you escape from the ice pillar?”
It was the first time a cultivator had managed to break free from it.
“There were some special circumstances.”
It went without saying that Qin Nan was not going to tell them about the Ownerless Heaven Pattern.
“Humph, either way, you’ve seen something you aren’t supposed to! You have two options, either you die, or become a spirit envoy after you die!”
The eyes of the spirit envoys flickered coldly.
At that instant, a strong aura surged across the hall, placing Qin Nan under strong pressure.
These spirit envoys might not possess any cultivation, yet it seemed like they were able to merge with the Twenty-Fourth Sacred Area of the Heavens and Earth to use its power.
Fighting them was no different from taking on the entire Sacred Area.
Qin Nan’s heart sank. Several thoughts crossed his mind.
At that instant, a thought was transmitted into the minds of the spirit envoys. Their expressions stiffened.
“Tsk, kid, consider yourself lucky, master told us not to trouble you,” a spirit envoy said with a curious look.
The young man was only a Peerless Ruler. Why was master giving him special treatment?
“Who is this master of yours?”
Qin Nan was confused.
“It’s not something you should know.”
A spirit envoy waved its hand. The murderous intent it was emitting just a moment ago dissipated instantly. It was replaced with a cunning grin, “Brother, it’s been a long time since any cultivators come here! Why don’t you join us? You’re going to have a lot of fun!”
“That’s right, brother, come join us!”
Qin Nan was left speechless. These spirit envoys had already drawn out their swords, but the situation had turned completely within the blink of an eye.
“Fellow spirit envoys, I’m sorry, I don’t bet.”
Qin Nan said, “I’ve come here because I want to know if there’s any way to go to the Canglan Continent.”
The spirit envoys exchanged glances with one another. One of them chuckled, “Since you’ve made it here, we can easily assign you a mission to let you return to the Secondary Lower Realm. However, you must win us in the bet first!”
Another spirit envoy quickly added, “The rules are very simple. We’ll be rolling the dice. The highest is six swords, and the lowest is one sword. We’ll be rolling six dices every time.”
Qin Nan twisted his lips. Were they really spirit envoys, or gambling addicts?
However, Qin Nan had no choice but to take a seat even though he was not good at betting.
“HAHAHA, you only rolled ten, you’re going to lose the round!”
“F**k me, I have six ones?”
“HAHAHA, I got twenty-nine this time, I’ve won!”
“F**k me, six sixes?”
In the next half an hour, the spirit envoys went from an uproar for not willing to admit their defeat to a complete silence as if they had just encountered a ghost.
Even Qin Nan was feeling a little sorry for them. He had never played the game before, but he did not himself to be so lucky.
“Senior Dice Master, there are two quests related to the Canglan Continent. The first is to return to the Canglan Continent and become the emperor of the Sky-Scorching Ancient Kingdom and lead its army against the army of the Sacred Moon Continent!”
“The second quest is returning to the Canglan Continent to eliminate the Master of the Evil Shrine!” a spirit envoy said respectfully.
Qin Nan coughed. Dice Master? What the hell?
“I’ll go with the second one. By the way, it’s fine calling me Qin Nan,” Qin Nan said after considering the options briefly.
“Sure, Senior Dice Master.”
Following it, five spirit envoys made their moves simultaneously and fired a ray of light into Qin Nan’s body. The surroundings began to spin rapidly as a magnificent force encapsulated him and brought him through space.
Unlike the others, his flesh had returned to the Canglan Continent too. It was the spirit envoys’ way of paying respect to the Dice Master.
Meanwhile, the First Immortal Realm, some ancient ruins in the Void Heaven Realm…
A woman in a long robe had a beautiful face and an imposing aura. She was leaving a trail of ice behind her as she walked.
The woman was none other than the strongest Nine Heavens Supreme, Empress Feiyue.
“If the twenty-fourth Sacred Area is like this, the other Sacred Areas are likely to be the same too. That means the seventy-two Sacred Areas of the Heavens and Earth are the same as that place in the Void Heaven Realm.”
Even though Qin Nan did not provide her with a lot of information, it was enough to answer many doubts she had.
“He will unlock a fragment of the memory of his past life upon reaching the Nine Heavens Supreme Realm, he also has the Flower of Eternity, he had practiced twelve Arts of Dao Seeking, he has dealings with the Sixth Immortal, the Seventh Immortal—Demon Emperor Wutian, the Shidao Tribe, the Ancient Taboo…” Empress Feiyue murmured.
As Qin Nan’s cultivation continued to improve, he was starting to have more ties with a lot of things.
“It’s time to seek the Dao.”
A moment later, Empress Feiyue raised her head. Her eyes sharpened as if she was staring at an eternal world.
Seeking the Dao as a Nine Heavens Supreme to achieve the Master Realm!
Time gradually passed. Even though a lot of things were happening in the First Immortal Realm, none of them were too shocking.
It was just the usual—people rising and falling with countless conspiracies taking place.
Five days later, the force encapsulating Qin Nan’s figure dissipated. He descended from the sky and immediately felt an indescribable sense of familiarity.
The man whose every action could shake the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm, who used to be the king of this land had returned.
