Chapter 2081: Daluo Heavenly Tao Ninth Level

Qin Yu looked at Xu Nian in terror, her eyes filled with a thick, desperate despair.

With her cultivation sealed, she probably couldn’t even manage to die.

And with the hatred Xu Nian bore her, he absolutely wouldn’t let her off.

"You want to know what the Sky-reaching Map is, I can tell you, but I have a condition." Qin Yu immediately said.

"You’re not qualified to negotiate conditions with us. If you don’t talk, I can take you to those free-trade islands right now." Xu Nian sneered, then prepared to use Daluo God Power to bind Qin Yu and cross the void.

Qin Yu’s face changed drastically on the spot, and she hurriedly said, "Fine, I’ll tell you the secret of the Sky-reaching Map. If I say it, does that mean you won’t sell me to a place like that?"

"That depends on my mood." Xu Nian’s expression remained indifferent.

Qin Yu was helpless. After hesitating for a moment, she finally said, "In fact, this Sky-reaching Map is a Nurture Spirit Treasure. It possesses powerful offensive might, but that’s not the main point. The most important thing is that this Sky-reaching Map involves a secret—the secret of a God Emperor Level expert."

"Oh? What secret of a God Emperor Level expert?" Xu Nian asked curiously.

"I’m not clear on the exact secret either, but it’s said to be related to Ancient Divine Artifacts. This God Emperor Level expert was supposedly an extremely powerful Divine Craftsman, and he had gone very deep into researching the nine legendary Ancient Divine Artifacts." Qin Yu said.

Hearing this, Xu Nian’s face also showed an interested expression.

He had collected quite a few Ancient Divine Array Patterns related to Ancient Divine Artifacts, and although he had tried to comprehend the mysteries within them...

He found that those mysteries were basically just the fur, and compared to the true profundities within the Ancient Divine Artifacts, what he had understood simply didn’t count as anything.

So after comprehending for a period of time, Xu Nian hadn’t continued delving deeper, but instead poured all his energy into Great Tao enlightenment.

Of course, as for the research on Ancient Divine Artifacts, Xu Nian had never planned to give it up, so when he heard Qin Yu say this, his interest was immediately piqued.

"You mean this Divine Emperor expert hid all of his research on Ancient Divine Artifacts inside this Sky-reaching Map?" Xu Nian asked in doubt.

"Yes, but as for exactly how it’s hidden, my father studied it for hundreds of thousands of years and still couldn’t figure it out. For safety’s sake, he sealed this Sky-reaching Map inside my body. This is all I know." Qin Yu said.

"Then hand over the Sky-reaching Map." Xu Nian said coldly.

"It’s useless. I can’t undo the seal my father laid down." Qin Yu said.

Hearing this, Xu Nian tried to undo the seal within Qin Yu’s body.

However, he discovered that this time he truly couldn’t shake this seal.

Then Xu Nian tried to borrow the power of the Divine Demon Mallet, but still couldn’t break the seal. This instantly gave Xu Nian a headache.

Right now, his Master Emperor Ye Tian was not by his side, and the Chaos Divine Palace had already been taken away by his Wind Attribute Avatar. Relying only on the power of this Divine Demon Mallet seemed insufficient to break the seal on the Sky-reaching Map.

This put Xu Nian in a dilemma for the moment; he had more or less studied this seal.

In fact, Fei Mo’s earlier thought of killing for treasure had been completely impossible.

Even if Fei Mo really killed Qin Yu, he still wouldn’t be able to obtain the Sky-reaching Map in the end.

Because there was a restriction on this seal: once Qin Yu was killed, the seal would immediately tear open the void and carry the Sky-reaching Map off into the Endless Void.

In that case, he truly couldn’t kill Qin Yu.

Xu Nian’s original plan had been to force Qin Yu to hand over the Sky-reaching Map, and then kill her.

But now this plan was clearly impossible.

"This seal was set up by my father. He said that once I die, no one else can get this Sky-reaching Map. So if you want the Sky-reaching Map, then you can’t kill me." Qin Yu seemed to see through Xu Nian’s thoughts and hurriedly spoke.

She had wanted to tell Fei Mo this beforehand, but hadn’t had the chance.

Now facing Xu Nian, she naturally wouldn’t miss this chance to save her life.

"Don’t be happy too soon. Even if I can’t break this seal for now, it won’t be long before I can." Xu Nian muttered in his heart.

His current enlightenment in the Gold Attribute Daluo Heavenly Dao had reached the Eighth Level Heaven; it wouldn’t be long before he broke through to the Ninth Level.

On top of that, there was his Great Gold Yuan Sword Technique. Although the first three moves had already been reforged and condensed through Geng Metal...

The strongest final Secret Technique, however, still hadn’t been fully mastered.

Once he comprehended this Secret Technique, it shouldn’t be difficult to forcibly break this seal.

As long as he possessed strength surpassing that of a God King Peak Expert, he would be able to break the seal.

Hearing Xu Nian’s words, Qin Yu’s face changed at once.

She had seen Xu Nian’s strength with her own eyes, and she had absolutely no doubt about the truth of his words.

"Then what do you intend to do?" Qin Yu asked.

Xu Nian let out a cold laugh, then wrapped Qin Yu with Daluo God Power and tore through the void.

He found another deserted island and opened up a cave mansion, then laid powerful Illusion Arrays, Trapping Arrays, and Killing Arrays all over the island, after which he tossed Qin Yu aside and began cultivating.

With these Formations in place, without Xu Nian’s guidance, even a Middle to Late Stage God King expert wouldn’t be able to walk out.

Those below Mid-stage God King would even be slain by the Killing Arrays.

And with Qin Yu’s cultivation sealed, it was even more impossible for her to leave.

So Xu Nian could focus entirely on closed-door cultivation.

Although Qin Yu could move freely within the island, she couldn’t walk out, nor could she send any information out.

This made her grit her teeth in anger, yet she was helpless.

It wasn’t that she hadn’t thought of ambushing Xu Nian.

But thinking of Xu Nian’s terrifying strength, and the fact that she herself had no cultivation, she gave up on that idea.

Xu Nian devoted himself single-mindedly to comprehending the Gold Attribute Daluo Heavenly Dao.

He held a sword of ordinary iron in his hand, repeatedly swinging this Mortal Sword, again and again deducing the operation of the Gold Attribute Daluo Heavenly Dao.

Again and again, day after day.

A full ten years passed, and Xu Nian remained completely immersed in cultivation.

After ten years, Xu Nian’s comprehension of the Gold Attribute Daluo Heavenly Dao had grown ever deeper.

"Boom!"

At last, as a powerful Heavenly Dao fluctuation exploded out, an incomparably strong Daluo Heavenly Dao aura surged from Xu Nian’s body.

"Daluo Heavenly Tao Ninth Level—he actually broke through." On the side, Qin Yu, who had been unbearably bored, looked at Xu Nian in shock, her eyes filled with boundless astonishment.

She had originally thought Xu Nian would need at least a thousand, even ten thousand years to break through to the Daluo Heavenly Tao Ninth Level.

Yet she hadn’t expected that Xu Nian would complete the breakthrough in just ten years.

Ten years!

For a Divine-level Expert, ten years was nothing more than the blink of an eye.

Xu Nian’s comprehension was actually this terrifying?
