Cultivating with Top Enlightenment

Chapter 866: Chapter 367: Demons Rise Amidst Chaos (Part 2)

The Will of the Two Worlds has utilized the majority of its power to maintain the stability of the Spirit Realm and the War Realm.

Therefore, Ning Qi can be certain that the strength of the Two Worlds’ Will is still far above his own.

To achieve ultimate victory, Ning Qi would never reveal his fangs until the last moment!

The Mountain and Sea Realm Will saw his humility as ever and was naturally very satisfied.

Compared to the two old fellows, Mountain Ancestor and Sea Ancestor, Ning Qi was evidently more obedient and worth nurturing.

However, for now, as the Spirit Realm war raged on, he couldn’t extricate himself.

After the two exchanged greetings, the Mountain and Sea Realm Will’s phantom looked towards the fleeing shadow and said to Ning Qi:

”So many Harmonization Cultivators have perished under your Heavenly Tribulation, are you not going to eradicate him completely?”

Ning Qi glanced at the person’s back.

”Realm Venerable, aren’t you curious whether this person is truly mad or just pretending?”

The Mountain and Sea Realm Will chuckled.

”By saying this, I understand your intent, you want to play a game of cat and mouse?”

Ning Qi replied, ”No, I vaguely guessed who this person is. His survival was beyond my expectation. Since he managed to survive, I just want to know if his hatred towards me has truly disappeared. If not, then I’ll make him even more desperate!”

The Mountain and Sea Realm Will glanced at Ning Qi.

”Who exactly this person is, even I don’t know. Yet you can guess it out.”

Ning Qi stroked his chin.

”Perhaps it was the ability bestowed upon me by the previous Heavenly Tribulation.”

Regarding this point, the Mountain and Sea Realm Will was also quite curious.

Now Ning Qi’s aura was elusive, even he was somewhat unsure of Ning Qi’s exact strength.

Looking at Ning Qi’s splendid robes, dyed in the Yin and Yang colors like ink, adorned with three hundred and sixty-five shadows of stars, the Mountain and Sea Realm Will asked:

”The Heavenly Tribulation you triggered had three hundred types of rules, but now your robes show three hundred and sixty-five shadows of stars. After overcoming the tribulation, did you master an additional sixty-five rules?”

Ning Qi awkwardly laughed:

”Nothing can be hidden from the Realm Venerable. I did indeed gain a lot from the Heavenly Tribulation.”

He had thrown so many treasures into the tribulation, and with the baptism of the tribulation, coupled with his constant Enlightenment within it, Ning Qi indeed mastered an additional sixty-five rules.

”Remarkable!” the Mountain and Sea Realm Will praised once again.

”Realm Venerable flatters me. Let’s see where this person intends to go.”

The Mountain and Sea Realm Will nodded.

Thus, the two also flew from the sky, trailing far behind the shadow.

As for the phantom of the Vast Realm Will, seeing that person neither sought help from him nor seemed mad, he didn’t interfere.

Whether that person was a Harmonization Cultivator from the Vast Realm or the Mountain and Sea Realm, he couldn’t figure it out.

And now, he received a summons from his master, the Saint Ancestor, so he decided to report back first.

...

The shadow staggered forward erratically.

Waking up, he also sensed his own condition.

This appearance of neither human nor ghost filled him with immense hatred.

What he hated more was that he never expected to be the sole survivor!

From the moment of awakening, the shadow knew he could no longer deal with Ning Qi.

However, he was determined to vent his anger!

Once, he was glorious, but now he had nothing. So even in death, he wanted to drag others down with him.

Thus, the shadow was both feigning madness and genuinely driven mad by emotions.

Fortunately, as the sole survivor of Ning Qi’s Heavenly Tribulation, he also received some benefits from it.

One benefit was the erasure of all his aura, allowing him to temporarily deceive everyone.

So far, this worked well, as neither Ning Qi nor the Wills of the Two Worlds recognized who he was.

Another was a third increase in his own strength!

The shadow sighed faintly.

If such benefits were obtained before his conflict with Ning Qi, perhaps he wouldn’t have ended up like this.

The shadow quietly surveyed the War Realm.

His Spiritual Sense extended further than ever before.

One piece of bad news was realizing that Ning Qi and the Mountain and Sea Realm Will seemed to be following him.

But now, he couldn’t care less!

Soon, the shadow finally targeted his revenge.

Located in the eastern region, the targets were two Integration Realm armies, without any Harmonization Cultivators.

Before and after Ning Qi’s tribulation, the War Realm had temporarily fallen into a cease-fire.

The two armies led by Integration Realm cultivators were, of course, the Sword Ancestor and Qi Keqing’s troops from the Profound Truth Realm and the Fuyao Realm.

As soon as the shadow entered the War Realm, he was prepared to trouble them, intending to force out Ning Qi.

But he was initially halted by Leng Qingao, making him temporarily give up.

Yet now, he was determined to drag them into hell!

The shadow’s body was cracked all over, charred black, with the cracks revealing dark red, dry flesh.

Even with a Harmonization Physique and a rules-imbued body, he couldn’t restore himself to his original state, showcasing the terrifying nature of Ning Qi’s Heavenly Tribulation.

The shadow continued to sway as he flew forward, muttering mad words all along.

”In chaotic times, demons arise. In chaotic times, demons arise...”

On the ground ahead.

The Sword Ancestor, Qi Keqing, and others continued to gaze in the direction of Ning Qi.

When the Heavenly Tribulation first appeared, they were full of confidence in Ning Qi.

How could the ordeal of Harmonization block someone like Ning Qi?

But by the Ninth Tribulation, upon hearing critiques from those Harmonization Cultivators in the distance, their hearts grew cold.

By the tenth tribulation, and the twentieth, they were left with only prayers in their hearts.

Until Ning Qi endured the thirty-sixth tribulation, seeing the clouds scatter and the thunder recede, and Ning Qi reappearing, only then did they completely relax.

The Sword Ancestor’s old face was full of joy, his sword-like eyes shining brightly.

Remembering the history of the Infinite Sword Sect, how close it was to decline after he took over, now it has finally swept away the dust and rebuilt its glory. At last, the Infinite Sword Sect has a Harmonization Sect Leader!

As for Qi Keqing and the cultivators from the Fuyao Realm, they naturally cheered for Ning Qi.

Seeing Ning Qi’s breakthrough brought them more joy than witnessing a breakthrough from their own Sect!

And now, in the sky above, a shadow suddenly appeared, swaying as it flew towards their location.

The Sword Ancestor and Qi Keqing exchanged glances, unsure of what to do.

But seeing Ning Qi following behind the person relieved both the Sword Ancestor and Qi Keqing.

No matter if the charred silhouette was a Harmonization Cultivator or not, so what?

With Ning Qi following behind, seeing the black shadow flying towards the Sword Ancestor and others, Ning Qi’s eyes suddenly turned sharp!

”So it really is you? Even after such a narrow escape, you haven’t given up your schemes!”

The shadow drew nearer to the Sword Ancestor and others, close enough to attack.

His eyes, full of feigned madness, suddenly flashed with murderous intent.

The charred body rushed towards the Sword Ancestor and others, surprisingly releasing bolts of lightning identical to Ning Qi’s previous tribulation!

Seeing this, Ning Qi’s gaze flickered and he lowered his hands ready to attack.

He loudly declared, ”If you don’t undergo your tribulation now, when will you?”

Upon hearing this, the Sword Ancestor and the others instantly understood.

Ning Qi had previously told them to find an appropriate opportunity to undergo their tribulation.

Evidently, the shadow’s onslaught was the perfect opportunity for their tribulation.

Instantly, the Sword Ancestor, Qi Keqing, and all cultivators who had reached the Integration Realm’s peak in the two armies soared into the sky.

Having suppressed their cultivation for so long, none of them held back any longer.

The shadow, seeing everyone ascend, was momentarily taken aback.

Layers of clouds rose from everyone, and the entire sky gathered countless gloomy clouds, exactly like Ning Qi’s scene before.

The shadow’s pupils contracted, igniting a hint of fear.

Making him subconsciously retreat, not daring to advance.

Yet the next second, realizing his own mental state, he felt profoundly ashamed.

”Second Brother, Third Brother, you’re all dead, and I’m the only one left alive. What am I afraid of?”

”Ning Qi killed you, massacring all the cultivators of the Three Domains. I have no way back!”

Thinking this, the shadow once again lunged towards the Sword Ancestor and others.

From within his charred body, lightning surged forth, painting the whole world with a unique bloodthirsty shade.
