“Old Zhou, are you surprised? There’s no need to be. Everyone has been driven by their own benefits since old times! Ye Zhaoxian might not have a good impression of me, but we are in a different era now.”
“If he wants to fulfill his ambition, he would have to join hands with me.”
“You are familiar with his personality. He could do anything to achieve his goals,” Cang said with a smile.
Cang exclaimed after he suddenly thought of something, “To be honest, if I didn’t join hands with Ye Zhaoxian, even if I have achieved the Heaven Highness Realm, I still don’t have the confidence to seal away the Nine Dragons Seal by myself.”
He was telling the truth.
When he joined hands with Ye Zhaoxian, there were a lot of risks involved.
Each of the Heaven-Slaughter Halberd, Hongmeng Pagoda, Donghuang Cosmos Chain, and the Heaven-Sealing Formation of the Four Saints was not something they wanted to mess with.
He and Ye Zhaoxian had paid a huge price just to convince the first three to gather at the Land of Distress and ambush the Nine Dragons Seal.
Ye Zhaoxian almost lost his life when he brought the Heaven-Sealing Formation of the Four Saints to the Land of Distress.
Most importantly, even when they had prepared everything, half of the outcome was purely based on luck!
If the Heaven-Slaughter Halberd, Hongmeng Pagoda, and Donghuang Cosmos Chain did not attack the Nine Dragons Seal as they thought, everything they did would be in vain.
The outcome might be different even if one of the mysterious artifacts did not take part in the process.
In addition to it, they were also betting on the first three artifacts were capable of suppressing the Nine Dragons Seal, and the Heaven-Sealing Formation of the Four Saints were truly able to seal away the Nine Dragons Seal.
If it was any other Heaven Highnesses, they would not bother to take such a huge risk.
However, Cang and Ye Zhaoxian who were once Supreme Highnesses never lacked the courage to take huge risks.
Luckily, it had worked out perfectly.
It was also the reason why Cang was in a great mood and was willing to explain the details to Zhou Xundao.
Normally, he would not say a word. He would let his enemy be lost in confusion.
“Oh, by the way, I didn’t come so far here just to tell you these.”
“I have two pieces of great news to share with you.”
Cang’s smile was warm like a spring breeze, “Ye Zhaoxian and I will keep working together until one of us achieve the Supreme Highness Realm.”
“As for the second piece of news…”
He flicked his finger and fired a white light into the distance. It cracked into pieces and turned into a screen over twenty zhang long and wide.
Loud rumbles were heard from the screen.
Qin Nan, Jiaye, and Zhou Xundao subconsciously looked at the screen and saw a scene on it.
It had a blue sky and vast land with mountains, forests, and rivers that were undergoing rapid changes. Various lights were rising from them followed by storms, lightning, fire, and many rare phenomena which occurred chaotically.
Qin Nan was stunned.
“Qin Nan, do you find it familiar?”
Cang smiled, “It’s located in the middle sector of the Middle Mysterious Realm, a place called the Land of God’s Breath. Ye Zhaoxian and the Rulers of Dao of other factions have modified it into the God’s Breath Battlefield.”
“I believe they are establishing the Rules there now.”
A forbidden land or a battlefield would have its core rules. For example, the Battle of the Masters had forbidden cultivators who were not in the Master Realm.
Qin Nan’s group soon noticed figures moving in the chaotic sky, including Ruler Linghuang, Ruler Qingyu, and Progenitor Shuangdao.
A giant golden lotus suddenly appeared in the center.
A figure was standing on it. It was Ye Zhaoxian.
He performed a hand seal as his aura skyrocketed. Bright lights emerged from his back like he was the master of the Land of God’s Breath.
“From today onward, the God’s Breath Battlefield is officially established!”
“The first rule is, anyone above the Master Realm and below the Heaven Highness Realm is allowed to enter it!”
“The second rule is, every Master of Dao can practice the God’s Breath Seal to enter the God’s Breath Battlefield directly, and the Rulers of Dao are not allowed to attack the Masters of Dao. The Masters of Dao have three chances to protect themselves when they are in danger in the God’s Breath Battlefield!”
Zhou Xundao and Jiaye’s eyes widened.
The rules were clearly trying to increase the number of Rulers of Dao in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm!
Once more cultivators achieved the Ruler Realm, more people would be attempting to reach the Heaven Highness Realm too.
“The first rule is, the God’s Breath Battlefield will be opened once every two years!”
“The fourth rule is…”
Ye Zhaoxian read out the Rules with a loud voice.
“The thirty-fifth rule, anyone who is born with the name Qin Nan and possesses the Impenetrable Sacred Flesh is not allowed to enter the God’s Breath Battlefield. If he tries to break in with force, he would be killed on the spot!”
“These are all the Rules!”
The words served as a shocking explosion.
The Rulers of Dao were astounded.
Ye Zhaoxian was targeting Qin Nan?
“What’s happening?”
Ruler Qingyu, Progenitor Shuangdao, and Progenitor Linghuang were startled.
They were involved in deciding the Rules, but they were not told about the last Rule!
Cang waved his hand to withdraw the screen. He looked at Qin Nan with a smile, “It’s just a little trick. There are plenty of ways for you to break into the God’s Breath Battlefield with force.”
“However, without the Nine Dragons Seal’s help and the fact that Ye Zhaoxian and I have joined hands, we can easily recruit people to our side and warn the factions by disclosing it to the public.”
“The whole Nine Heavens Immortal Realm will treat you as their enemy.”
“I bet you are not going to have an easy time.”
Cang said with a grin, “Of course, you are pretty strong now. The others’ cultivation isn’t strong enough to threaten you, so you should be safe for the time being. However, I can’t say for sure after several dozen years.”
“I’ve already given you a chance to kneel and beg me for mercy.”
Cang flung his sleeves and walked away.
He suddenly thought of something. He looked at Ji Jinzi and said, “Nana, farewell.”
He vanished into thin air after saying the words.
