A day later, Qin Nan and Progenitor Mingchu arrived at the easternmost of the First Immortal Realm. They finally broke a hole in the barrier after attacking it for a few hours.
Another four hours later, Qin Nan finally saw the entrance to the Blue Heavens, the dark red gate standing at the end of the darkness.
"It has such a terrifying aura even though it's only an entrance!" Qin Nan exclaimed. If it was any other peak Master of Dao, they would have no chance of getting close to the gate.
Buzz!
The Nine Dragons Seal in his soul started glowing, as if it was extremely pleased.
Qin Nan calmed his thoughts and entered the gate together with Progenitor Mingchu.
A few moments later, Qin Nan felt his body loosening up as he landed in a strange world.
At the same time, a great shiver ran down his spine, causing his body to tense and unleash its power!
He did not sense any presence of immortal intent or Qi in the surroundings. There were thousands of strange auras instead. Even the Rules that were everywhere in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm ceased to exist here.
In addition to it, Qin Nan also felt like terrifying creatures were watching him coldly in all directions.
Qin Nan opened his eyes and was dazzled by the sight before him.
Everything was clear and bright. The magnificent sky was dark blue and the ground under his feet had a normal brown. There were tall mountains with strange flowers, rivers, and valleys brimming with the sense of life in the distance.
"Are you surprised? I was the same as you when I first came to the Blue Heavens. I thought everything here would be different from the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm," Progenitor Mingchu said with a smile.
"Indeed."
Qin Nan collected his thoughts. He tried activating the Power of Rules in his body, but he sensed a great restriction. He could only unleash half of their potential.
"However, this place isn't as peaceful as it looks on the surface. There are deadly traps, auras, and savage beasts everywhere. Your life might be in danger if you lower your guard. For example, the energy that stone contains can kill a peak Master of Dao."
Progenitor Mingchu reached out his finger. Qin Nan observed it with the Immortal Eyes of the Divine God of Battle. He immediately saw a strong golden flame inside the stone around the size of a fist. If it was triggered, its power would burst out destructively.
"Qin Nan, the Blue Heavens are split into three zones since ancient times. There are the Upper Mysterious Realm, Middle Mysterious Realm, and Lower Mysterious Realm. We have no clue how vast and terrifying the Upper Mysterious Realm is."
"We are currently on the outskirts of the Lower Mysterious Realm. If we are to refine it more, the Lower Mysterious Realm and the Middle Mysterious Realm could be further split into the outermost circle, the outer circle, the middle sector, the inner sector, and the deepest sector."
"It would take A peak Ruler of Dao traveling at full speed ten days to go from the outermost circle of the Lower Mysterious Realm to the deepest sector. Going from the outermost circle of the Middle Mysterious Realm to its deepest sector would take twenty days, assuming there was no danger, trap, or beast along the way."
Qin Nan's eyes flickered with astonishment.
He did not expect the Blue Heavens to be so huge!
A peak Ruler of Dao only needed six to seven days to travel from the easternmost of the First Immortal Realm to the westernmost.
Progenitor Mingchu said sternly, "Qin Nan, my cultivation only allows me to reach the inner sector of the Lower Mysterious Realm as there's a great risk I might die to any potential danger there. There's no way we can reach the outermost circle of the Middle Mysterious Realm without a group with five or above peak Rulers of Dao."
"I know you have something extraordinary to help you, but you should be careful still. You must leave at once if something doesn't feel right. After all, based on the records of the Blue Heavens passed down from ancient times, the Blue Heavens are deadlier than they used to be..."
The Nine Dragons Seal shuddered before Progenitor Mingchu finished his sentence. It released a seven-colored light which sprinkled down on Qin Nan. The shiver in him dissipated instantly. He no longer felt like he was being spied on too.
Wu Di was obviously expressing his resentment.
The old man had no idea how powerful he was!
"Mm, senior, I will keep it in mind," Qin Nan nodded.
"Let me have a try."
Qin Nan landed beside the stone that contained a golden flame. The stone did not react. Qin Nan reached out his hand to touch the stone, but it did not react as if it was unable to see Qin Nan.
Qin Nan's eyes glittered. It meant he could ignore the deadly traps and auras.
"Can I share the light with others?" Qin Nan asked.
"Don't you worry, I'll protect your woman when the time comes," Wu Di twisted his lips.
"Thanks," Qin Nan nodded.
Progenitor Mingchu was still a little worried after he saw the mystical light around Qin Nan. He continued to lead the way. A few days later, they reached the inner sector of the Lower Mysterious Realm. He finally agreed to leave after Qin Nan tried his protection on a few traps.
Qin Nan initially planned to bring Progenitor Mingchu along so he could regroup with Progenitor Linghuang and the others, but Progenitor Mingchu shook his head and told Qin Nan that he was only allowed to join the others if he left with them at first. He was not allowed to join them now. He could only wait for another chance.
Qin Nan continued on by himself.
The deeper he went, the more deadly auras and traps he encountered. Each of them contained shocking level of energy, which would shake the whole world once it was released.
In addition to it, Qin Nan also saw many beasts and mystical existences he had never seen before.
Their cultivation level was at least in the Greater Success Stage of the Ruler Realm. Most of them had even achieved the peak Ruler Realm.
However, they all acted like they did not see Qin Nan. They did not react even when they walked past him.
If it was any other Rulers of Dao, they would be overjoyed if they could avoid all the danger. The Lower Mysterious Realm had countless incredible fortunate encounters and treasure which would bring them unimaginable benefits.
Qin Nan knew there were lots of valuables around, but he did not have time to spare on them as he was in a hurry.
"Will I enter the Middle Mysterious Realm after crossing this river?"
Qin Nan came to a stop on the eleventh day. A faint silver river appeared in front of him. It was like a ravine between the Heavens and Earth that had split the Blue Heavens apart.
"Yes, the river is called the Silver Imperial River. There are ten sea tribes residing in it. They would attack anyone that tries to cross it. In the past, the ninety-nine Heaven Highnesses who built the Origin Mountain had gathered here," Zhou Xundao said.
