Not only Chen Nan!
Even Consort Yu gasped in shock!
She never dreamed!
That Wu Lao Jiu, who had been accompanying him for chess and enjoying melons at Cao Rufeng's house, was actually the Emperor of the Wu Kingdom!
"You know each other?"
Wu Sheng's face was filled with surprise!
"Junior does not know you are the King of Wu. Please forgive any offense!"
Chen Nan bowed!
King Wu said, "Still call me Uncle Jiu, it sounds more intimate! After all, your master and I call each other brothers!"
Wu Sheng said, "Old man, why are you here?"
"Do you know about what happened before?"
Speaking of this!
He subconsciously grasped the Dragon Slaying Sword!
"Don't worry, I won't punish you!" King Wu gave a wry smile. Although he was the Emperor of Wu, one of the eight super powerhouses of the Human Race!
But facing the Dragon Slaying Sword, he was also intimidated!
"Then why are you here?" Wu Sheng asked in a low voice!
King Wu looked at Chen Nan and said, "Chen Nan, I want to make a deal with you!"
Chen Nan respectfully said, "Please speak!"
King Wu said, "I want you to set up a Qiyun Formation for Wu Kingdom to protect my Wu Kingdom's prosperity for ten thousand years!"
"This matter should not be difficult for you!"
"If this matter is successful!"
"I will give you a great opportunity!"
"It can help you step into the Earth Immortal realm!"
Chen Nan was stunned for a moment, and a wry smile appeared on his lips: "Uncle Jiu, setting up a Qiyun Formation for Wu Kingdom is just a matter of effort, but breaking through this matter..."
"Junior has a special physique, and I'm afraid I won't be able to enter the Earth Immortal realm in this life!"
He had taken too many spiritual medicines!
But all to no avail!
Fortunately, even though his realm could not be improved, his cultivation could still be improved!
King Wu said lightly, "According to historical records, the Desolate Ancient Sacred Body indeed cannot enter the Earth Immortal realm!"
"But I can help you enter the Earth Immortal realm!"
"You know I have the Desolate Ancient Sacred Body?" Chen Nan's heart trembled violently. This was his biggest secret!
"How about it? Do you want to consider my previous proposal?" King Wu asked with a smile!
Wu Sheng said unhappily, "Old man, Brother Chen saved my life. Isn't it right for you to give him an opportunity as a reward?"
King Wu retorted, "If he hadn't saved your life, do you think I would give him this opportunity?"
Wu Sheng directly rolled his eyes at him!
Chen Nan hesitated and said, "I can try to set up a Qiyun Formation, but I'm not too sure if it will be successful!"
"No need to steal too much Qiyun, I just want Wu Kingdom to not be so poor!" King Wu's eyes flashed with a hint of bitterness!
Wu Kingdom was located at the border of the Demon Realm!
It was a country with scarce resources!
It was the poorest country among the eight countries!
"Good!"
Chen Nan decided to give it a try!
It was also doing something within his power for Wu Kingdom!
Of course!
If he could really step into the Earth Immortal realm!
For him, it would be capital to establish himself in the Immortal Realm!
After all!
Only by reaching the Earth Immortal realm could one open a Immortal Mansion!
Thus!
Chen Nan stayed at the Summer Resort!
He drew some auspicious energy floating in the heaven and earth!
If the formation was successful, it would continuously absorb the auspicious energy from heaven and earth, making Wu Kingdom's national destiny prosperous, and also turning Wu Kingdom into a super power!
However!
No matter what he did!
He could not arrange these wisp of auspicious energy into a formation!
This was something Chen Nan had not expected!
Ten days!
A month!
Three months!
Winter turned to autumn!
Unknowingly!
Chen Nan had been here for half a year!
He had tried countless methods, but none of them succeeded!
Seeing this, King Wu even invited Cao Rufeng here!
Although Cao Rufeng's comprehension of formations was far inferior to Chen Nan's!
However!
He was still the number one formation master in the Immortal Realm!
With his advice, perhaps Chen Nan could set up the Qiyun Formation!
After all, both he and his disciple were the most outstanding existences in the way of formations!
The combination of the two of them would definitely be a strong alliance!
But it was all for naught!
Even with Cao Rufeng's arrival!
He could feel the auspicious energy Chen Nan had stolen!
But he didn't know how to proceed!
"Perhaps we can go out for a walk and relax!"
Cao Rufeng suggested!
He felt they had fallen into a misunderstanding!
If they continued to focus on research in seclusion, they would only get deeper into trouble!
"Alright!"
Chen Nan also felt the need to relax!
"How about we go to the seaside to play!"
Looking at the distant coastline, Chen Nan showed a faint smile!
He had stayed at the Summer Resort for over a year!
Although he could see the vast blue sea to the south whenever he went out!
He had never been there!
"Little Nineteen is fishing by the sea, we can go and see!" King Wu, wearing a gray robe, sat in the courtyard eating melon!
"I'll go call Fei Fei!"
Chen Nan knew!
While he was researching formations, Yu Fei had been cultivating diligently!
Perhaps unwilling to let the gap between them widen, Yu Fei actually refused Chen Nan's invitation to go to the seaside!
Chen Nan did not force her!
"It's three hundred miles from here to the sea, why don't we race to see who gets there first?" King Wu proposed with a smile!
Whoosh!
Cao Rufeng disappeared!
"Uncle Jiu, you are one of the eight top powerhouses in the Human Realm. Junior's cultivation is at most at the Supreme Immortal realm. How can my speed compare to yours?" Chen Nan said with a bitter smile!
King Wu shook his head dismissively, "Everyone has their weaknesses, even a ninth-level Immortal Emperor is no exception!"
"And my weakness is speed!"
Chen Nan's heart stirred, and he couldn't help but say, "Uncle Jiu, I heard you fought with the Human Emperor. What is his weakness?"
Since they were talking about this topic!
He also wanted to probe indirectly and inquire about the Human Emperor's strength!
King Wu's expression was solemn, "The Human Emperor cultivates the Law of Annihilation!"
"This is an extremely terrifying law among countless laws!"
"Once this law appears, countless laws will disappear from heaven and earth!"
"As for his weakness..."
"Heh!"
"To be honest, even the seven Human Sovereigns of our Human Race couldn't find the Human Emperor's weakness back then!"
Recalling that battle!
His eyes revealed deep fear!
Fortunately, Cao Rufeng appeared in time and used the space formation to forcibly separate them!
If the Human Emperor unleashed the Law of Annihilation!
Everyone would turn to dust in an instant!
"Uncle Jiu, what is the difference between Law and 'Dao'?" Chen Nan asked confusedly!
There are three thousand Dao techniques!
If one can master one!
One can become a Sage!
Escape from the three realms and six paths!
Escape from the cycle of Yin and Yang!
King Wu pondered for a moment, "You can understand Law as the most superficial Dao!"
"Only by mastering a certain Law!"
"Do you have the qualifications to glimpse the true meaning of [Dao] and control it!"
Chen Nan nodded slightly!
Knowing the difference between Dao and Law!
King Wu said, "To become a Sage, you need to sever the seven emotions and six desires. You need to be mentally prepared for this!"
Chen Nan frowned and couldn't help but say, "If the seven emotions and six desires are severed, then what is the meaning of becoming a Sage?"
