Cultivating with Top Enlightenment

Chapter 365: Chapter 194: Tenfold Heaven and Earth_2

Ning Qi appeared thoughtful.

Taoist Baishan said: ”I will help you.”

Ning Qi felt grateful in his heart and smiled: ”Great, I’ll treat you to the finest Enlightenment Tea by then.”

Next year.

The Enlightenment Tea Tree will surely rise to a new level.

Taoist Baishan immediately beamed with joy. ”We’ll see, we’ll see.”

Then he added: ”Your Enlightenment Tea Tree is indeed remarkable. My Heavenly Crane Tree may not match yours when Spiritual Awakening occurs. Pay close attention to it; you might find fortune.”

Ning Qi was taken aback. ”Please instruct me.”

He originally thought that the day of Spiritual Awakening would be the fusion of Spirit and the Power of Heaven and Earth, with the essence of Spiritual Qi restoring to the world afterward, but now it seemed more complex.

Taoist Baishan chuckled: ”I came today precisely for this.” ”Since you have visited the True Martial Hall, you must know what is there, right?” ”Life Poison,” Ning Qi replied.

Previously unaware of Life Poison, Taoist Baishan couldn’t speak of it for fear of backlash, but now there was no such concern.

Taoist Baishan sighed softly: ”Indeed, it is Life Poison. To solve this Life Poison, countless prodigies and geniuses have exhausted their efforts. Ultimately, a plan was devised, but I can’t tell you the specifics for now. I can tell you, however, it relates to Spiritual Awakening. Spirit wasn’t suddenly lost but was intentionally hidden, set to revive explosively at the calculated time.” ”Because of the Covenant of the Saints?” Ning Qi asked, recalling what Buddha Baoshu had mentioned at the True Profound Mountain. ”Yes.” ”Then tell me about the Spiritual Awakening.”

Taoist Baishan organized his thoughts and said: ”This world was not originally as it is now. In the past, it was ten times larger than now.”

The first sentence made Ning Qi’s pupils quake. ”As Spirit hid, the earth veins withered, the world changed dramatically, and Spiritual Treasures nearly vanished.” ”Naturally, after Spiritual Awakening, the earth veins will expand again, the world will grow tenfold, even surpassing the past. Moreover, the explosion of Spirit will cause some potentially rich entities to mutate, evolving into Spiritual Treasures, such as my Heavenly Crane Tree, or your Enlightenment Tea Tree. Both are highly likely.” ”Additionally, it brings a world-altering scene, accompanied by various anomalies, whose specifics I can’t fully predict. There might even be a mass awakening of beasts.”

Ning Qi’s mind was tumultuous; it was the first time he heard such a detailed account of Spiritual Awakening: ”You mean Heavenly Beasts?” ”Exactly, what we call Heavenly Beasts can also be termed Spirit Beasts. They are naturally able to control Spiritual Qi. The powerful ones could rival Martial Saints, while the weaker ones still surpass Celestial Beings. Yet, such celestial favored races nearly faced extinction due to Life Poison!”

His voice carried a touch of regret.

Ning Qi fully understood the connections, finally knowing why the Silver Giant Ape was as it was. ”Spirit Beasts naturally absorb Spiritual Qi. When Life Poison appeared, they were hit first. But strong figures among them devolved their bloodlines to hide, unable to absorb Spiritual Qi naturally, severing the path to ascension, but at least preserving some sparks.”

Saying this, Taoist Baishan turned his gaze to the White Ape.

Ning Qi felt a jolt in his heart: ”You mean?” ”Indeed, the Little White Ape possesses pure Spirit Beast bloodline. In hidden Spirit times, it’s insignificant, but when Spirit explodes, his Spirit Beast bloodline might be fully activated, and without proper response, he might directly perish under Life Poison!”

The White Ape was bewildered.

The specifics of their conversation were unheard by him, but their gaze made him uneasy.

Seeing Ning Qi’s grave expression, Taoist Baishan waved a hand: ”Of course, there’s no need to be overly worried. By then, quickly stepping into the Martial Saint Realm to shield him from Spiritual Awakening’s influence will do. The reason I brought it up is to prevent any oversight that might cause regret.”

Ning Qi exhaled lightly and asked: ”If Spirit is shielded, will Tiansheng be unable to activate the Spirit Beast bloodline?” ”Naturally, in a sense, this is both a danger and an opportunity. If he can endure on his own, the benefits are immense. If it’s shielded, there’s neither danger nor opportunity. The best is to find a method for him to safely awaken the Spirit Beast bloodline.”

Ning Qi gradually relaxed.

This, for him, might not be impossible.

He remembered Zhuang Chen: ”What about the Innate Sword Bone among humans?”

Taoist Baishan glanced sideways: ”Naturally, it’s like the Little White Ape. Truly, your True Martial Sect is a place of outstanding individuals, wouldn’t be surprising if treasures are born!”

Ning Qi ignored Taoist Baishan’s teasing, pondering how to create opportunities for Yuan Tiancheng and Zhuang Chen during Spiritual Awakening; shielding Spirit was simple, but Ning Qi didn’t want them to miss the opportunity just like that. ”Thank you,” Ning Qi said softly.

Taoist Baishan cheerfully waved his hand.

This time he visited the True Martial Mountain to discuss Spiritual Awakening with Ning Qi, to prepare him in advance.

Now that the purpose was achieved, he prepared to leave. ”Prepare well next, the Spiritual Awakening day is near. Those old ones might start seclusion, and the world may quiet down for a while. You, kid, make good use of your time, don’t wander around!”

With a reminder, Taoist Baishan casually left.

Of course, before leaving, he didn’t forget to pluck a few tea leaves, even though he already had the tea box from Ning Qi.

Ning Qi shook his head with a smile but felt grateful in his heart. ”Time to hurry, create the method to eliminate Life Poison.”

He felt a slight sense of urgency.

According to the expected time for Spiritual Awakening, there were still several months, but no one could say for sure if it would erupt earlier.

If it truly happened prematurely, Ning Qi would have to rely on the Ancient Saints’ method to weaken Life Poison to step into the Martial Saint Realm, which he didn’t desire. After all, Life Poison was something dauntingly terrifying, something Ning Qi didn’t want in his body.

Fortunately.

The deductions were proceeding orderly, even more smoothly than before.

Thanks to the method of weakening Life Poison, Blade Demon faced less influence and could conduct experiments more frequently. ”Now the direction is clear. By merging the Three Flowers with the Ten Thousand Path Intent Realm, it might be possible to leverage higher-dimensional power to expel Life Poison; possibly, only I can achieve this worldwide.”

Ning Qi sighed softly.

This was not boasting.

But it required multiple Martial Path Intents, like Sword Intent, Blade Intent, Fire Intent, Wind Intent, etc. to reach the Transformation Realm, which for the average person was impossible.

For a genius like Blade Demon, achieving Blade Intent to the Transformation Realm was exhausting, let alone integrating other paths. Others, reaching two or three Martial Path Intents to Transformation Realm would already dominate an era as a prodigy.

Comprehending the Ten Thousand Path Intent Realm was something only Ning Qi could do.

Next was how to integrate them.

Time passed.

Success was very close.

But it was destined, for now, that only Ning Qi could learn such a Secret Technique unless his future realm rose higher, allowing deeper understanding of Life Poison and deducing more universal Dharma Methods. ...

Meanwhile, as Ning Qi diligently worked on the Dharma Method.

At the Red Sun Sect.

A purple-clad figure, cold as an ice mountain, stepped in, with unparalleled beauty, making others dare not approach. Before the Martial Artists of the Red Sun Sect could speak, a one-armed figure rushed out, face filled with joy: ”Little sister Zi Yue, you’ve finally awakened!”

Seeing the Red Sun Martial Saint’s excited demeanor, Martial Saint Ziyue’s expression turned solemn.

In one swift move, she landed beside the Red Sun Martial Saint, but her expression was serious as she looked at his arm stump, asking sternly: ”What happened?”

She had just arrived following the Red Sun Martial Saint’s aura, only to find her sworn brother with a missing left arm, an unexpected sight.

Red Sun Martial Saint let out a deep sigh: ”The elder brother was useless.”

His expression was somewhat downcast. ”””
