Secrets of the Martial Saint

It's that time of year again for the True Martial Peach Gathering.

The eight True Disciple gathered together.

Many things happened during this year. The Daoist Longshan held the Celestial Person Ceremony, the intricacies of which were known only to the disciples of True Martial, and everyone was filled with emotion.

This year.

Ye Qinghe blossom wine Peach Blossom Brew becoming increasingly fragrant and sweet; she seems to have truly mastered the secret.

But Ning Qi knew that this was the only one.

Ye Qinghe secretly tried other types of wine, but all of them failed. So she proclaimed herself the Master of Peach Blossom Brew, specializing in only one kind. Everyone smiled knowingly and praised her.

This year's peaches, however, have surprised everyone even more.

"I feel like these peaches taste even better than they did a few years ago. Is it just my imagination?" Seventh disciple Song Cheng couldn't help but show off another one.

Everyone nodded:

"It's not an illusion; after eating it, my body is heating up, seemingly strengthening our foundation."

Everyone looked surprised; it was somewhat miraculous.

Ning Qi smiled slightly:

"My master obtained three Bright Fruits at the Celestial Person Ceremony. I studied them and improved the cultivation method of the peach tree, but it's only just begun, and the effects aren't very noticeable yet."

The fourth disciple He Yan, glanced exaggeratedly at the rows of peach trees outside the courtyard:

"My goodness, doesn't that mean our True Martial Sect will have vast tracts of spirit seeds comparable to the Tree of Light in the future?"

"It's still early."

Ning Qi simply chuckled.

Achieving the same effect as the Bright Fruit is a long and arduous task.

However, in a few years, perhaps we can drink Enlightenment Tea at the True Martial Peach Gathering.

Everyone was filled with anticipation. They had long since lost all doubt about Ning Qi. Although they didn't know Ning Qi exact cultivation level, they estimated it wouldn't be low, and even felt that he might have surpassed some of the weaker ones among them.

The previous Sleeping Dream Pill is proof of this.

This year.

The eldest disciple Luo Wentian, and the second disciple, Xiong Shi, successfully broke through to the White Mist Realm thanks to the effects of the Condensing Qi Pill. Afterwards, with the help of the Tempering Qi Pill, they grew rapidly. The Tempering Qi Pill was more miraculous than any other pill they had known before, and it was probably enough to allow them to easily break their previous cultivation records.

The others also made rapid progress.

The miraculous effects of the Sleeping Dream Technique and Sleeping Dream Pills amazed them.

Ye Qinghe had already reached the ninth level of the Inner Essence Realm. She only needed to accumulate some more foundation to step into the Gang Essence Realm with the help of the Condensing Gang Pill.

Because of Ning Qi, the cultivation levels of the True Martial Sect True Disciple Sect's disciples began to improve rapidly, much faster than they had done on their own before.

If they themselves were in such a state, one can only imagine how Ning Qi himself was in a similar situation.

Even at such a young age, their cultivation level is likely already extremely astonishing.

However, everyone tacitly refrained from asking further questions.

They believed that Ning Qi would tell them when the time came.

"Little Nine, after this Peach Blossom Festival, we'll probably be going down the mountain to train soon. We'll get you lots of fun things then. You like reading, so your senior brothers and sisters will look for some rare and unique books for you. Do you have any preferences?" the crowd asked.

As senior brothers and sisters, they were repeatedly taken care of by their junior brothers, which made them feel a little embarrassed.

After pondering for a moment, Ning Qi said:

"If you have any records about the Martial Saint, please find me more. Also, I'm quite interested in all sorts of strange and unusual techniques."

Given the strength of my senior brothers and sisters, they probably can't obtain martial arts techniques that are too profound, so they might as well turn to other areas.

Ning Qi wanted to know more about the Martial Saint realm.

The Celestial Person Realm held no secrets for him. He needed to prepare in advance, not wait until the situation became dire before starting his search. He always felt that the Martial Saint was not so simple.

In recent days, he has reviewed the records of the previous conflicts Great Flame Dynasty and the Demon Sect. The Great Flame Martial Saint seems to be avoiding taking action and is not as free as he used to be.

Furthermore, considering that the Martial Saint of past eras rarely left behind any detailed information, only fragmentary descriptions, it is worth noting that they rarely left behind anything detailed.

Ning Qi found it very strange.

"Even if the Martial Saint have all ascended to immortality, surely they would have left no trace behind?"

certainly.

Asking my senior classmates to try searching was just a trial; I didn't have high hopes.

Everyone smiled and agreed.

"I will definitely make sure you, junior brother, are satisfied!"

Ning Qi thought for a moment and then instructed:

"But now the Demon Sect and the Great Flame are locked in a fierce battle, and I've heard there's chaos in various places. Experts at the Gang Essence Realm are also frequently appearing. Senior brothers and sisters, you must be careful."

He turned and went inside, then took out a porcelain bottle and poured out a few bright red pills.

"This is the Blood-Burning Pill. If you encounter someone you cannot defeat, taking this pill will unleash your potential, allowing you to either fight back or escape. But remember, it only lasts for fifteen minutes."

This was a piece Ning Qi created in his spare time.

The Demon Sect's Blood Burning Technique gave him inspiration.

However, the side effects of the Blood Burning Pill are not that severe; it will only weaken the person who takes it for a period of time without damaging their fundamental health. But correspondingly, its effects are not that strong either.

Everyone was deeply moved and solemnly put away the pills.

They didn't speak, but silently resolved to find some useful rare books for their junior brother.

Watching his senior brothers and sisters leave, Ning Qi sighed softly.

Unlike others, he possesses Max-Level Comprehension, allowing him to grow rapidly and gain knowledge even while simply sitting in the mountains. For others, however, experience is essential for advancement. The conflict between the Demon Sect and the Great Flame has thrown the martial world into chaos, but opportunities lie hidden within danger. Those who fail to seize these opportunities cannot make courageous and diligent progress.

Ning Qi is not a saint; he cannot protect everyone's safety, nor can he make decisions for others.

All he could do was try his best to prepare some trump cards for them, such as the Blood Burning Pill.

Many of True Martial's disciples went down the mountain.

Having been cooped up on the mountain for a long time, and now that the Celestial Person of the Demon Sect are silent, it's the perfect opportunity to go down the mountain and explore.

On True Martial Mountain.

An unusual silence fell.

Daoist Longshan is still recovering from his injuries. He was forced to fight against the Demon Sect Sect's Celestial Person during Demon Sect nighttime attack on True Martial Mountain, which aggravated his injuries, which had just begun to improve. Fortunately, he has the Blood Sun Mushroom bestowed by the Great Flame Dynasty, along with the Millennium Flame Sun Jade, and is now steadily recovering.

With the departure of the few True Disciple coming and going, Ning Qi's Dao-Seeking Courtyard has become quiet.

He was completely content.

Is it not a joy to read scriptures and gain enlightenment every day?

The Daoist scriptures sent by the True Mystery Sect have greatly benefited him. The insights of the predecessors into the universe and all things have inspired him from time to time. Ning Qi's foundation is now much deeper than it was a few years ago. If he were to return to the time when he first started practicing martial arts, he would definitely not have spent so much time creating the Myriad Forms Origin Stake.

This reminded him of the old Daoist priest of Bai Shan, and for a moment he was even tempted by the old priest's suggestion to plunder all the Daoist sects in the world.

He then thought:

"How wonderful it would be if one day we could draw upon the compassion of all people and gather the wisdom of all beings!"

Ning Qi shook his head and chuckled, realizing he was overthinking things for the time being.

After all, he's not even at the Celestial Person Realm yet, so trying to gather the wisdom of all living beings is a bit too ambitious, and he doesn't need to do that for now.

He looked inward at himself.

He had already taken the second Golden Jade Pill. His Gang Qi surged like a misty swirling lake, harboring astonishing power within. He was getting closer and closer to achieving the Jade Liquid Transformation Elixir.

Ning Qi did not continue refining his Gang Qi.

Refining Gang Qi is a gradual process; too much of a good thing can be bad.

He held the Treasure Armor he had obtained earlier in his hands, examined it carefully, and after entering a state of Celestial Person, he let the power of heaven and earth brush over the surface of the Treasure Armor, impacting and vibrating Treasure Armor with various different forces to conduct experiments.

Ning Qi named this Treasure Armor the Azure Treasure Armor, and testing Treasure Armor has become one of his pleasures lately.

"This Treasure Armor is as soft as water, but it instantly hardens under force, able to withstand impact. While the weaponsmith's skill is partly to blame, the main reason lies in the material itself."

"This material is extremely special, and its way of absorbing power is also extremely special. If I can study it thoroughly, I might be able to comprehend a powerful defensive technique."

Ning Qi was somewhat tempted.

Treasure Armor is ultimately an external object, and it can only protect the body.

If one could create a secret technique, it would be one's own power, completely impenetrable. With defensive secret techniques and Treasure Armor, the safety factor would be greatly increased. Ning Qi was very concerned about this kind of protective technique.

He switched to using his Gang Qi to touch the Treasure Armor.

Observing the unique fluctuations of the Treasure Armor dissipating force, and noticing the special changes within it, the Gang Qi also began to simulate accordingly.

After so many days of research, he has gained some insights.

The Gang Qi transformed into strands of azure light. These strands of light wandered aimlessly, rotating around Ning Qi in a peculiar way. They appeared as nothing, but if one reached out to touch them, they would immediately become a solid barrier.

Ning Qi manipulated the power of heaven and earth, slowly pressing down on the azure light barrier, continuously increasing the force.

Initially.

The azure barrier was still easily manipulated, but as Ning Qi continued to increase his strength, it burst into countless points of light with a loud bang.

Ning Qi frowned slightly:

"It's still not enough. The Azure Profound Body Protection Technique can now withstand attacks from the Yuan Pill Realm. If I stand still, even Yuan Pill Realm would have a hard time breaking through it. But if someone reaches the Celestial Person Realm realm, they can only withstand two or three hits."

To be honest, this secret technique can be considered a successful creation, but it clearly does not meet Ning Qi's expectations and needs further improvement.

He hoped that this defensive technique could achieve the same level of defense as the Azure Treasure Armor.

"At the very least... it needs to be able to block a punch from the Prince of Zhenbei, right?" Ning Qi thought.

The Prince of Zhenbei was the strongest person he had ever seen. Ning Qi regarded him as his hypothetical enemy, and his first priority was to survive in his hands.

"Continue to optimize!"

Ning Qi was not discouraged. If he could completely simulate the mysteries of the Azure Treasure Armor with his Gang Qi, he should be able to do it.

This process is not a waste of time; it also strengthens the foundation of the Myriad Manifestations True Qi.

Embracing the characteristics of all things in the world and integrating them into one, this was Ning Qi's original intention in creating the Myriad Manifestations True Qi.

Time passed slowly.

Ning Qi continued his cultivation methodically, and the Azure Profound Body Protection Technique was constantly strengthened through his deduction and improvement, making its defensive power increasingly abnormal.

As Ning Qi swallowed the Golden Jade Pills one by one, his aura grew stronger and stronger.

While digesting the fourth Golden Jade Pill.

The fifth disciple Jiang Baishan, returned to True Martial Mountain, which alarmed Ning Qi.

Because Jiang Baishan had taken the Blood-Burning Pill, his left arm was hanging limply over his body, and he was almost cut off.
