Peerless Battle Spirit

Chapter 1505 - An Eerie Sight

Empress Feiyue already had the thought when Qin Nan first produced the Dao Rune in his body.

Normally, a peerless genius who had mastered the Four Extremities would need at least another three hundred years to produce the Dao Rune regardless of how talented they were.

Besides, it required an outstanding fortunate encounter too.

The fact that he had produced the Dao Rune in such a short period of time implied that his past life too had produced the Dao Rune.

In the past, she was able to produce the Dao Rune in just thirty days because of her past life.

However, it was crazier in Qin Nan's case. He immediately produced the Dao Rune after he achieved the Martial God Realm.

Even if he was the successor of the fifth immortal, the Divine God of Battle, it was still unbelievable.

The only explanation was, Qin Nan's past life had also produced the Dao Rune, and he was most likely a peerless dominator of the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm.

Qin Nan's past life was most likely the reason why the Divine God of Battle had chosen Qin Nan among countless cultivators as his successor.

Even Empress Feiyue could not help but feel curious about it.

Who was Qin Nan's past life? Was he someone among the immortals too?

"Accept you as my master? It's not going to happen."

Qin Nan rejected the offer without hesitation.

Even though he had witnessed how remarkable the Art of Three Lifetimes was, he would only have one master in his entire life.

Besides, even after he summoned his three lifetimes, he would have to face the Tribulation of Three Lifetimes too.

"It's fine if you don't want to accept me as your master, but you'll have to do me a favor once you ascended to the Nine Heavens."

Empress Feiyue seemed to have predicted Qin Nan's reaction.

"Once you mastered the Art of Three Lifetimes, you'll be strengthened by the cultivation of your three lifetimes. It will be a great help to us in our current situation. Besides, it doesn't necessarily mean you have to summon your three lifetimes."

Empress Feiyue added after remembering something.

She had only broken the taboo because there were only a few people left on her side.

"I don't have to summon my three lifetimes?"

Qin Nan's eyes glittered, before he said with an alerted look, "Why do I feel like you're keen to let me learn the art?"

"Whatever you think."

Empress Feiyue stopped talking.

"Fine, teach me the art, and I'll do you a favor when you need my help."

Qin Nan said after a slight hesitation.

They were indeed in a disadvantageous position in the current situation. It would be helpful if he could be strengthened by his three lifetimes.

It was fine to learn the art, as long as he did not break the taboo.

"This place won't last for long, we'll need to find another place..."

Qin Nan lifted his gaze and saw the ground above shaking. There was not enough time for him to comprehend the art.

"Time is more than enough, unless you're the stupidest person in history."

Empress Feiyue unleashed a glow as several ancient runes flew around her and gathered on her fingertip, before they combined into a terrifying talisman and entered Qin Nan's body.

BANG!

Qin Nan's mind felt like it had been blasted by a lightning strike.

The runes spread out and turned into lines of scriptures merging with his soul.

"It all starts with zero, one is the early phase, nine is the limit, and ten is the end!"

"All lives went through endless reincarnation, to soar above the Great Dao..."

"The cycle of life-preserving destinies, it is the beginning, but not entirely, it is the end, but not entirely..."

It felt like an utterly terrifying presence had traveled across the endless rift while mumbling the words, teaching Qin Nan the principles of the art.

Qin Nan had fully comprehended it in just a few hundred breaths' time.

Apart from his outstanding Martial Skill Talent, the main reason was that a cultivator at Empress Feiyue's level was able to pass down an art like an abhisheka.

"So this is the Art of Three Lifetimes? Starts with zero, ends with ten, why does it feel like every life has ten cycles of reincarnations?"

Qin Nan was astounded.

If his interpretation was on point, the Art of Three Lifetimes was a lot more terrifying than he had imagined.

"Stop thinking, start creating the seal."

Empress Feiyue's icy voice suddenly echoed in Qin Nan's mind, waking him up from the process.

"Forget it, I'll worry about it later."

Qin Nan shook his head and performed a strange hand seal.

The seal was called the Seal of Three Lifetimes.

According to the copper mirror, once he performed the Seal of Three Lifetimes, he would be strengthened by the cultivation of his past life, present life, and future life, producing the force of three lifetimes.

In addition to that, there was a great chance that he would learn the Martial Arts that his past life and future life had learned. He might even receive some of their memory fragments.

"Let's see who your past life was."

Empress Feiyue's cold eyes suddenly flickered.

If she directed the force of three lifetimes into her eyes, they would turn into eyes of the three lifetimes, allowing her to see the past life of someone else who was practicing the Art of Three Lifetimes.

If her cultivation, and comprehension of the art reached a certain level, she could even see both a person's past life and future life. 

BANG!

In the nick of time, a terrifying explosion took place.

It felt like a world somewhere had been shattered into pieces.

"What's this?"

Even Empress Feiyue was utterly stunned after witnessing the scene.

BANG!

Qin Nan felt his thoughts in a chaotic state. Before he could react, it was as if he was struck by a heavy blow. His body shuddered as a line of blood ran down from his lips.

The force of three lifetimes was shattered before it was refined.

"What just happened?"

Qin Nan immediately wore a confused look.

His understanding of the Art of Three Lifetimes was on point, and he did not make a mistake when performing the Seal of Three Lifetimes, yet why did he fail to refine the force of three lifetimes?

What had gone wrong?

"Let's try again."

Qin Nan was never the kind that would give up easily. He took a deep breath to calm his thoughts and performed the Seal of Three Lifetimes again.

However, a weird scene took place.

An invisible force was pressing down on Qin Nan's hands, preventing him from completing the seal no matter how hard he tried.

He was unable to perform the first seal.

"That's impossible, my understanding of the Art of Three Lifetimes is accurate..."

Qin Nan was even more confused. He lifted his gaze and asked, "Copper mirror, what's going on?"

Empress Feiyue stood close to him. She did not speak. Her eyes were staring at Qin Nan's hands.

Even though she had taught Qin Nan the Art of Three Lifetimes, but everything that happened had surpassed her understanding too.

The force of three lifetimes dispersed!

Unable to complete the Seal of Three Lifetimes!

Could it be that Qin Nan has gone through a whole cycle, and is now back at the 'start'?

Or perhaps...

Empress Feiyue's eyes widened when the thought crossed her mind.
