Cultivating with Top Enlightenment

Chapter 983 - 423: Who Says I’m Alone? (Part 2)

Clang! Clang!

In the cave, a sudden, dense sound of metal and iron being withdrawn echoed.

The Dragon-faced Cultivator turned his attention to the source of the sound while continuing to attack the Yin Yang Energy.

The Vast Realm’s fundamental will and the Saint Ancestor’s avatar, which he had pinned down, were unexpectedly rescued at the same time.

The wooden thorns on their bodies were extracted effortlessly, and the one who rescued them was another Yin Yang Energy!

Those wooden thorns seemed to instantly change ownership and fused into the Yin Yang Energy.

The Dragon-faced Cultivator was furious at the sight.

It turned out that Ning Qi had not only manifested one stream of Yin Yang Energy but secretly split into two, with one luring the Dragon-faced Cultivator into battle, and the other rescuing the Saint Ancestor’s avatar and the Vast Realm’s will.

He had worked so hard to pin them down, causing catastrophes in the Vast Realm and allowing Buzhou Mountain’s phantom to devour the Vast Realm’s energy.

Yet now, Ning Qi had effortlessly undone his efforts.

The Dragon-faced Cultivator roared furiously, shaking the cave.

”You dare, you brat!”

Enraged, the World-Devouring Roaming Dragon, long fused into the cave’s space, emerged once more.

Dragon roars filled the air, scales emerged, trapping the three who had just escaped within the dragon’s belly.

A massive dragon head suddenly appeared from a corner, aimed at the three within the belly, spewing forth a breath of utter destruction!

Within the dragon head, a branch emitted a sallow hue, seemingly turning grayish-black instantly as the breath was expelled.

”Kid, focus on dealing with him, don’t worry about us!”

The Saint Ancestor’s avatar and Vast Realm’s will, freed from the Dragon-faced Cultivator’s seal, were still in disbelief.

After all, both had been helpless against the wooden thorns, yet Ning Qi, more like their master than the Dragon-faced Cultivator, easily took them away, truly shocking them.

However, the Saint Ancestor’s avatar understood the current situation.

He and the Vast Realm’s will were unable to deal with the Dragon-faced Cultivator; everything depended on Ning Qi now.

So he immediately spoke, hoping Ning Qi wouldn’t worry about them.

Ning Qi didn’t respond but shielded the two behind him, facing the World-Devouring Roaming Dragon’s breath of annihilation directly.

His eyes reflected the annihilating breath, and admiration couldn’t help but appear in his gaze.

”The Seed of Jianmu uses the world as nourishment, absorbing World Power to strengthen itself. I didn’t expect under the Dragon-faced Cultivator, it could wield such reverse power. Is this the legacy of Buzhou Mountain?”

Like floods or flames, the annihilating breath surged towards the three, collapsing space along the way.

Within, Ning Qi sensed the extinction of life, the path of withering and death hid within.

Not dodging, he transformed into a dark Yin Qi alone, rather than the simultaneous presence of Yin Yang Energy.

The breath immediately engulfed the Yin Qi.

Instead of fierce confrontation and clashing, the two began to merge, with the Yin Qi absorbing the breath entirely.

In the void, a swirl of Yin Qi danced excitedly like a fish, enjoying the vast expanse!

Behind Ning Qi, the Saint Ancestor’s avatar and Vast Realm’s will were stunned.

Ning Qi, ever since he began, hadn’t chosen a direct clash with the Dragon-faced Cultivator, always employing an incredibly sophisticated way to dissipate the power.

Though the Saint Ancestor’s avatar didn’t understand why Ning Qi didn’t fight with the same aggressiveness as he once did, he couldn’t deny that Ning Qi had grown even stronger!

Just like two people fighting, if both are evenly matched, they’ll exchange blows and get injured, indicating similar skill levels.

But if one can dissipate the opponent’s attacks, it shows one thing—the person dispersing has fully grasped the opponent’s methods and confidently absorbs them, skillfully employing dissipation techniques.

At their level, besides ordinary Unity Realm’s Power of Rules and bodies of rules, they pursued higher realms of the Immortal Path.

This path transcends Power of Rules; it’s an understanding of the Dao.

All three have embraced their paths, with the potential to break through the Unity Realm and achieve transcendence.

Yet, each of their paths is distinct.

The Sea Ancestor entered the Dao through rules of water and moon, forging a path of utmost yin and softness.

The Mountain Ancestor took the mountain for his path, adding the legacy of Buzhou Mountain, stepping onto a road of utmost firmness and masculinity.

The Saint Ancestor entered the Dao through painting and calligraphy, studying Divine Text, creating a unique secret passage of Divine Text.

No one can definitively say whose path is the strongest.

But from the ongoing Spirit Realm conflict, they knew the Mountain Ancestor possessed greater strength.

This was not because the Mountain Ancestor’s rigid and masculine path was superior, but because his legacy was astonishing.

Moreover, the Mountain Ancestor’s temperament was ruthlessly bold, viewing all as consumables for his achievements, considering everything as material for his growth.

Yet now, from Ning Qi’s exhibited Yin Yang Energy, the Saint Ancestor’s avatar sensed a Dao surpassing any of their paths!

Though the Dao seemed simple, it intertwined with personal experiences, cultivation, and insight.

Ning Qi appeared to use Yin Yang Energy, yet it’s already all-inclusive from him.

Other cultivators could utilize Yin Yang Energy, such as Qin Minghao who once followed Ning Qi.

But Qin Minghao used Power of Rules, deriving Yin Yang Power from world rules, rather than understanding and comprehending a Dao personally.

Just like the Saint Ancestor, Mountain Ancestor, and Sea Ancestor, all three wield immense prestige, with numerous disciples inheriting their methods.
