Cultivating with Top Enlightenment

Chapter 47: Chapter 43: Myriad Phenomena Chapter

Qin Yun’s incident caused quite a stir in the True Martial Sect, leaving the various True Disciples a bit disheartened.

Ning Qi gradually returned to his previous cultivation state, though he couldn’t help but think of his former eighth senior brother when reading the texts Qin Yun had left behind. He wondered what the circumstances would be the next time they met.

But time can heal all wounds.

The True Martial Sect gradually recovered its past splendor.

Everyone was united in preparing for the upcoming Celestial Being Grand Ceremony.

Perhaps influenced by Qin Yun’s situation, Taoist Longshan went into seclusion, waiting for a breakthrough, sure to achieve the Celestial Human Realm!

Once again, the peach blossoms bloom this year.

This year, the peach blossoms outside the Seeking Tao Institute bloomed even more brilliantly and beautifully.

Ye Qinghe picked some more to make Peach Blossom Brew. She secretly resolved that she would successfully brew the wine, but this time she didn’t publicize it much, deciding to work quietly and surprise everyone.

Ning Qi chuckled silently.

The White Ape had already informed him that Ye Qinghe had quietly approached the White Ape, using both threats and incentives to secretly have the White Ape brew a batch as well.

If she succeeded, she’d use hers; if not, she’d use the White Ape’s.

Ning Qi procured a wicker chair and lay under the peach blossom tree.

Serene and at ease.

He was just over six years old but looked no different from a ten-year-old boy, dressed in a Taoist robe, with a calm gaze and an extraordinary demeanor.

He was contemplating the Transferring Strength Technique of the Great Dream Nine Deaths Strength. ”The so-called Transferring Strength Technique means letting Inner Strength attach various characteristics; some characteristics don’t need external aids, like Heaven-shaking Strength, Earth-shaking Strength, and Sea-covering Strength.” ”But some characteristics require external aids, like Ice Silkworm Strength, where it’s mentioned it’s best to use an Extreme Cold Treasure to cultivate, enhancing the Inner Strength’s power; otherwise, the power is not as great.” ”I pursue not just one characteristic but something all-encompassing, just like the Myriad Phenomena Origin Stance of the past.”

Ning Qi slowly became aware of his path.

He was destined to be different from ordinary people with his perfect level of perception.

By refining the Myriad Ways, perhaps it could help him reach the highest achievements and walk even farther. ”In recent days, I’ve read many Inner Strength techniques, from the Scripture Pavilion and the ones left by the eighth senior brother. The so-called characteristics of Inner Strength are essentially forming different trajectories within the human body, creating various characteristics.” ”In that case, as long as I make the trajectories indefinite, I can switch freely at any time.”

Ning Qi looked up, and a peach blossom slowly fell.

He casually caught it and smiled.

He had comprehended ninety-two Transferring Strength Techniques and understood the essence of Transferring Strength, also observing the Myriad Phenomena of heaven and earth and experimenting with various trajectories.

At this moment, he finally understood.

Within his body.

The already incredibly solid Inner Strength kept spinning, transforming into various special trajectories with his thoughts.

A tiny bit of Inner Strength erupted along Ning Qi’s palm, and a fiery heat emanated, causing the once vibrant peach blossom petal to spontaneously ignite without wind.

But that was not the end.

The trajectory of Inner Strength within his body changed; the original fiery heat disappeared, transforming into extreme coldness. A cracking sound was heard, and the burning petal was instantly frozen, turning into a stunning ice sculpture.

Ning Qi’s mind moved again.

His fingers remained unchanged, and a thread of Inner Strength emerged with a slight tremor.

The ice sculpture turned into powder, crystalline like fine sand, falling through Ning Qi’s fingers.

Ning Qi’s gaze was filled with delight. ”Inner Strength can be converted at will, characteristics can be switched arbitrarily, all-encompassing—this is the Myriad Phenomena Chapter of the Great Dream Nine Deaths Strength, also the Transferring Strength Technique of the Great Dream Nine Deaths Strength.” ”My Inner Strength can be extremely hot, extremely cold, can ’vibrate,’ can ’rotate,’ can even carry sinister poison, capturing the essence like a Divine Tiger or Ancient Eagle; it can also have layered characteristics, being both extremely cold and vibrating.”

This was Ning Qi’s achievement during this time.

Accomplishing this is not easy; others’ Inner Strength trajectories are fixed after Transferring Strength, while Ning Qi’s are variable. This requires an extremely solid physical foundation—only with Ning Qi’s strong physical foundation could this be achieved.

Were it someone else, their body would likely collapse and die in moments. ”However, the Myriad Phenomena Chapter still has a long way to go to truly achieve universality.”

It’s not that Ning Qi lacks insight, but existing Transferring Strength Techniques are too few, only ninety-two. Building on this foundation, Ning Qi created many characteristics, but it’s still not enough. Later, if new Transferring Strength Techniques are collected, they can be incorporated.” ”With the Myriad Phenomena Chapter, my power has grown even stronger.”

The Inner Strength with added characteristics possesses power not comparable to ’three-free’ Inner Strength.

For example, now Ning Qi can freeze someone into an ice sculpture with a single palm strike, while before, he could only kill with force. ”Next, I must single-mindedly aim for the Great Success of Inner Essence. Given the consolidation of my Inner Strength, by then, I’ll be able to extend my Inner Strength outside my body.”

Ning Qi was quite looking forward to this.

The Laser Sword in past film works had always fascinated him, and the effect of extending his Inner Strength out of his body was basically akin to a laser sword, only it couldn’t leave the body and fly.

Having a goal.

Ning Qi was even more motivated in his cultivation.

Thanks to the Great Dream Nine Deaths Strength, his cultivation speed had always been fast.

In a little over a year, he had already reached the Inner Essence Fivefold, and now he was about to achieve Sixfold Great Success.

Within the Seeking Tao Institute.

The peach blossoms were splendid. With Ning Qi’s perception, he could tell that there were more disciples coming and going from the Scripture Pavilion than before.

The news of Qin Yun’s betrayal of the True Martial Sect had long spread through the Outer and Inner Sects; some were angry, some regretted, but some felt fortunate. Without Qin Yun, it meant that Taoist Longshan might once again accept disciples, and some wanted to seize this chance to soar to the skies.

Ning Qi didn’t see any problem with it; it’s human nature.

People strive for greater heights.

He silently cultivated.

During this time, it seemed that because of Qin Yun’s matter, his senior brothers and sisters visited much more frequently, showing great care for Ning Qi.

They feared that one day Ning Qi would also have a Heart Demon, not wanting to experience the same pain a second time.

Ning Qi was not annoyed.

He gradually understood that pursuing longevity isn’t about turning himself into an emotionless, cold cultivation machine. Previously, he might have thought he wanted more alone time, more time to grow, but now he realized he needed to cherish the people before him.

When his senior brothers and sisters came, he would gladly chat with them, and in truth, it didn’t take up much time.

Just like that.

When the peach blossoms were in their most brilliant bloom.

Ning Qi encountered the opportunity for his fifth pseudo-death.

His Inner Strength and physical body were already significantly interconnected; with the fifth pseudo-death, he could advance to the Sixfold Realm, at which point he could try the exhilaration of a ’laser sword.’

But just as he was about to go to the treasure vault to get some resources for the pseudo-death.

Luo Wentian brought an incredibly exhilarating piece of news, causing Ning Qi to halt temporarily.

The fifth disciple, Jiang Baishan, has broken through to the Gang Essence Realm!
