Peerless Battle Spirit

Chapter 2312: A Conversation, Part Two

Heaven Highness Linghuang, Progenitor Mingchu, and the others fell silent.

Through their conversation last time, they already guessed that Qin Nan's only way to recruit Moxie and the others was to merge with Huangfu Jue's flesh.

Merging with Huangfu Jue's involved a lot of risks. Qin Nan was reluctant to do it too.

However, they had no choice but to convince Qin Nan to consider it under the circumstances.

After all, the Four Demon Heaven Highness was one of Huangfu Jue's men too.

If they could obtain the demon cultivators' help, it would change the situation significantly.

"Qin Nan!"

Zhou Xundao said, "Jiaye and I have decided to bring it up too. Based on how the situation is, you must merge with Huangfu Jue's flesh."

"Not only will it make you stronger, it will also help your faction grow so Cang and Ye Zhaoxian won't dare to attack you in the near future."

"Besides, it will also make it safer for you to visit the Upper Mysterious Realm."

Jiaye nodded and said, "Master, you just need to make sure you have refined the Indestructible Flesh of Eternity before merging with Huangfu Jue's flesh. Otherwise, you will master the Art of the Immortal Demon first."

"It might break the balance in your body."

Qin Nan said, "But, if I do that, Huangfu Jue might..."

Before he could finish, Zhou Xundao and Jiaye smiled. Zhou Xundao said, "Qin Nan, don't worry about it. Jiaye and I have faith that you can protect your heart from Huangfu Jue's will!"

Qin Nan felt a surge of warmth in him.

Zhou Xundao and Jiaye were the last people who would want him to merge with Huangfu Jue's flesh, but they were supporting him to do it now.

They were only doing it for his sake.

"Alright!"

Qin Nan nodded. He told Heaven Highness Linghuang and the others, "Seniors, don't worry. I'll recruit Huangfu Jue's men. Just give me some time."

Heaven Highness Linghuang and the others let out a relieved sigh and smiled.

Meanwhile, a badge in Qin Nan's bag started glowing. Qin Nan took a quick glance at it and smiled, "Just as we were talking about it..."

It was a message from Moxie.

Qin Nan looked into the badge and heard, "Qin Nan, due to the change of circumstances, the demon cultivators are willing to join you and lend you a hand."

Qin Nan was startled. Moxie and the others were taking the initiative to help him?

"Mm?"

Qin Nan squinted.

Ever since he knew Moxie, he had always called him master. He had never called him his name.

Was the exception a pure coincidence, or was it intentional?

Qin Nan did not respond to the message.

He would tell Moxie he had been cultivating in seclusion to recover from serious injuries when the time was right.

"Qin Nan, the Patriarch of the Shidao Tribe sent us a message again. He's asking..." Heaven Highness Linghuang said.

Qin Nan was just about to nod when an unexpected change took place.

The Nine Dragons Seal inside his soul suddenly glowed.

"Is this..."

It instantly caught Qin Nan's attention.

"Mm?"

Zhou Xundao and Jiaye were startled too.

However, before they could react, a brilliant light devoured Qin Nan's will.

Qin Nan felt the world spinning. He found himself in complete darkness when he collected his thoughts.

"Qin Nan."

A young voice sounded followed by a white light descending from above and forming an illusionary figure only half a zhang tall.

"Are you...Wu Di? Weren't you sealed away? How did you..."

Qin Nan was startled.

"Hehe, do you think a little seal is going to stop me?" Wu Di laughed.

However, if he had a body, Qin Nan would notice him avoiding his eyes as he was talking.

As Qin Nan mentioned, it had been sealed away.

It was able to appear because of another soul inside Qin Nan's body.

At first, it did not expect the strange energy it detected last time was from another soul inside Qin Nan's body.

Most surprisingly, the other soul turned out to be...

He did not tell the truth purely because it was the soul's intention. He also agreed with the soul's idea.

"Ugh, but I can only come out once," Wu Di added.

"Wu Di, hurry up and tell me how I can break the seal? Do you need the stones you mentioned?" Qin Nan asked.

"(Cough cough), those stones are just a fascinating idea I came up with out of boredom. I was going to do some experiments with them. They aren't really that useful," Wu Di said.

“……”

Qin Nan's lips twisted.

"Qin Nan, I'll tell you the truth. The seal is very strong this time. You won't be able to break the seal with other ways before you achieve the Supreme Highness Realm," Wu Di said with a sigh.

"I have to achieve the Supreme Highness Realm first?" Qin Nan's eyes widened. He wore a wry smile.

The Heaven Highness Realm was unusually difficult. He had no idea how long it would take him to achieve it, or whether he even had a chance to do so.

"Mm, which is why I came out to tell you that you don't have to worry about the seal."

Wu Di's tone switched, "Besides, I don't mind giving you some guidance knowing your current situation. If you can do it, it might turn the tables around. You could even trample Cang and Ye Zhaoxian under your feet."

Qin Nan immediately asked, "What is it?"

Wu Di said, "Qin Nan, your strength and arts aren't necessarily weaker than Cang and Ye Zhaoxian. You only lack the experience."

"Cang and Ye Zhaoxian have achieved the Supreme Highness Realm by taking one step at a time, while half of your cultivation is from your two past lives."

"Therefore, if you want to trample them, you will need more experience and endure more hardships."

Qin Nan nodded. It might sound harsh, but it was the truth.
