Cultivating with Top Enlightenment

Chapter 403: Chapter 210: The World Watches, Three Saints Offer Treasures_3

Fortunately, Ning Qi’s advancement was even greater.

The Wood Qi flowed around his body, and after the elevation of the Cyan Profound Body Protection Technique he originally created, it became even more resilient. In these past few days, he was not idle; all the past secret techniques were being elevated, and moreover, he was constantly deepening his foundation.

At this moment.

He stood with hands behind his back, and stepped into the Thunderous Forbidden Zone alone.

Boom!!

Lightning shone like rain, and the endless booming sounds continuously echoed in Ning Qi’s ears, as bolts of thunder crashed down and engulfed him.

Yet Ning Qi’s expression remained unchanged.

The purple lightning bolts could not approach him at all.

Ning Qi lifted his gaze, and golden light swirled in his eyes as he once again saw the scene he had seen before.

Deeper within the Thunderous Forbidden Zone, there were lightning bolts of various colors densely packed.

Purple-black lightning, black lightning, black-red lightning, blood-red lightning...

The deeper he went, the more terrifying it became.

Ning Qi strolled calmly.

Ultimately, he stopped in the area of black lightning; he could still proceed forward, but the blood-red lightning caused him apprehension, even a strong sense of crisis. For refining spiritual energy, the best effect was still the black-red lightning.

He did not plan to probe the deepest depths but instead chose to sit cross-legged.

Bolt after bolt of black lightning came crashing in, but they merely shattered into streaks of lightning.

Ning Qi summoned the True Martial Sword, and a startling sharpness burst forth, immediately forming a safe vacuum area. Following this, the Earth Vein Essence Stone, Molten Rock Crystal Core, and Earth Marrow—all three spiritual objects—rushed out, spinning around Ning Qi continuously, transforming into a triad formation, infusing him with Earth Qi.

Then, bursts of spiritual energy erupted, guiding the black-red lightning to descend.

Boom!

In an instant.

A strong lightning force flowed across Ning Qi’s body, even making his hair dance with lightning snakes.

Within Ning Qi’s body, the Five Organs were glowing, with the power of the other four organs resonating with the spleen.

He was in good spirits, clearly sensing the increased pace of cultivation.

If this trend continues, perhaps there is hope of reaching the Fifth Realm Martial Saint Realm before the Martial Saint meeting; by then, Ning Qi’s strength will be even greater. ...

Ning Qi did not stay on True Martial Mountain to cultivate indefinitely.

After stabilizing his realm and once the turmoil of spiritual awakening gradually settled, he descended the mountain.

On the way.

He was rather amazed.

The influence of spiritual awakening on the world was indeed significant; many places became unfamiliar, where once rare thousand-foot tall mountains now appeared everywhere, like small dirt mounds scattered randomly, and even ten-thousand-foot peaks could be occasionally seen.

The ecology among them had obviously changed significantly.

Black Sand Sea.

Was no longer what it used to be.

In just a short period, this near-sea had become much wider and deeper, with island upon island appearing out of thin air. He sighed emotionally, yet without hesitation, followed the pulse of the True Martial Seal.

Soon.

Ning Qi stopped in a completely unfamiliar sea area, took a deep breath, and sent his voice out with the help of spiritual power: ”Profound Turtle Senior, Ning Qi pays respect!”

Waves surged, and calm prevailed.

Ning Qi waited silently for a moment, then his eyes lit up as he sensed a mighty wave coming from the seabed, followed by columns of water shooting skyward. A colossal entity emerged from the sea surface, streams of water cascading from its edges like falling waterfalls.

Seeing the Profound Turtle, whose size had evidently grown significantly, Ning Qi was inwardly astonished.

As for on the back of the Profound Turtle, it was still shrouded by the White Mist-enveloped True Martial Hall. ”Long time no see, Ning.”

Profound Turtle Senior’s large pupils carried a gentle smile as he sized up Ning Qi, clearly with admiration in his eyes. ”Crossing four realms at a step, you’re impressive, kid.”

Ning Qi smiled and said: ”Just lucky.”

Profound Turtle Senior chuckled and said: ”Come up.”

The White Mist scattered, and Ning Qi once again saw the True Martial Hall like an Immortal Palace. He initially thought it extraordinary, and with his current perspective, he felt even more unfathomable, stirring a ripple in his heart.

He stepped into the True Martial Hall, where a familiar hunched old man was already waiting.

Ning Qi was not surprised; he had once created a secret technique known as Wuxiang Gang Body, which was now further elevated, able to construct avatars with spiritual energy, far stronger than before and much more flexible. The current scenario was likely a similar secret technique. ”Greetings, Profound Turtle Senior.” He saluted respectfully.

He was still very grateful to Profound Turtle Senior; back in Black Sand Sea, had it not been for him stopping the Heaven-Slaying Martial Saint, he would have only watched as the Red Sun Martial Saint left.

Of course, the current Red Sun Martial Saint was already a corpse.

Profound Turtle Senior waved his hand, marveling at Ning Qi: ”You certainly did not disappoint me.”

Up-close scrutiny of Ning Qi further revealed the strength of the young Taoist before him, far exceeding his earlier expectations.

It stirred an unprecedented hope within him.

Ning Qi said earnestly: ”I’ve come here as agreed to seek clarity from the senior.”

Last time after obtaining the True Martial heritage, Profound Turtle Senior had told him to revisit once he had reached the Martial Saint Realm.

He originally wanted to learn everything behind this, yet unexpectedly, the Heaven-Slaying Martial Saint divulged everything beforehand. However, he believed that Profound Turtle Senior might know something different.

The two strolled slowly among the palace group.

Cranes occasionally sang, and when Ning Qi looked, he realized that they were real Immortal Cranes and not mere illusions. His pupils constricted, clearly sensing a Martial Saint Realm-like aura from those cranes.

In the outside world, that would be the Beast Emperor!

And not just one, but seven or eight of them.

Besides those, there were several spirit beasts, unknown to Ning Qi, hidden with extremely powerful strength, quietly observing him before vanishing into the White Mist.

Ning Qi’s heart was not calm; re-entering the True Martial Hall this time, the sights and sounds were even more startling than before.

This kind of foundation seemed beyond what this realm should possess. ”No need to marvel; they cannot leave this True Martial Hall.” Profound Turtle Senior said calmly, ”I know you have many doubts in your heart. Now that you’ve stepped into the Martial Saint Realm, I know what I can tell you, and I won’t hide it.”

Ning Qi nodded, then asked: ”Do you know the Mountain and Sea Realm, Senior?”

Profound Turtle Senior was slightly surprised: ”It seems you already know much.” ”A few days ago, the Heaven-Slaying Martial Saint told me.” Ning Qi did not hold back, recounting everything the Heaven-Slaying Martial Saint had shared with him. Instinctively, he felt a greater trust in Profound Turtle Senior.

Profound Turtle Senior nodded slowly: ”What he said was correct, but do you know, from where did the core Dharma Method, which conceals spiritual energy, awaken the world’s will?”

Ning Qi’s heart skipped, gazing at the hall in front of him.

Profound Turtle Senior laughed: ”It originated from the True Martial Hall.”
