Entering the Heaven-Human Realm

The world is in turmoil.

Ning Qi, on the other hand, devoted himself to quiet cultivation in the Dao-Seeking Courtyard, watching the flowers bloom and wither, which was also a wonderful thing. He diligently cultivated every day without fail, making gratifying progress step by step.

Now...

With his God Forging nearing Perfection, reaching the Celestial Person Realm was a natural progression.

Ning Qi estimated that it would take only one or two days.

"Before I knew it, I was already eleven years old."

Ning Qi stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the starry sky, his heart filled with endless emotions.

At eleven years old, he already possessed an extraordinary and elegant demeanor. Even fifteen or sixteen-year-old boys were not as tall as him. At first glance, ordinary people would marvel at what a handsome and unparalleled young Daoist priest he was. If they looked at him a few more times, they would be even more shocked. His aloof and ethereal demeanor was enough to captivate anyone.

This is the unique temperament that Ning Qi has developed through years of reading scriptures and comprehending the Tao.

If there were immortals in this world, they would probably be no better than this.

It was precisely because of this that many of the disciples of the True Martial Sect knew that Ning Qi was becoming increasingly extraordinary. This was because Ning Qi had not concealed himself. Now that he was becoming more and more powerful, he naturally no longer needed to be as reserved as before. Sometimes he acted impulsively, and his moves astonished Zhuang Chen and Li Ling, who were Celestial Person by their ninth senior brother.

Zhuang Chen knew more in his heart. When he was young, he was a member of the Divine Sword Sect. He exchanged the Dream Taotie for Ning Qi's amazing sword strike. Later, Ning Qi taught him the secret technique of the innate sword body. However, he never told anyone about these things.

Li Ling, on the other hand, occasionally had a flash of inspiration and felt that his Ninth Senior Brother's demeanor was somewhat similar to that of the serious and aloof Heavenly Sword Elder, except that his Ninth Senior Brother was obviously much kinder and more approachable.

A thought inevitably crossed his mind: could it be that his Ninth Senior Brother had secretly Inheritance the mantle of the Heavenly Sword Elder? His respect grew even stronger. Having spent a long time with the Heavenly Sword Real Person, he knew that gaining the approval of such a profound and unfathomable senior was no easy feat.

Ning Qi looked back on the past.

The Divine Intent is scattered.

I have almost forgotten everything from my past life. Eleven years have passed in this life, and I have spent most of them on True Martial Mountain.

He gazed into the distance, his heart filled with emotion.

"I wonder if the place I was in in my past life was a star in the sky? Have all my hundred reincarnations been like that? Will I ever have the chance to go back and take a look?"

Ning Qi had no attachment to his past life; it was purely out of interest.

He couldn't help but recall his previous trip to the high heavens, where the rules were clearly different from those on the planet in his previous life. The power of the Thunder Forbidden Zone still made him shudder when he thought about it. Even though he had already advanced to the Yuan Pill Realm, he did not go there again.

He even felt that even if he stepped into the Celestial Person Realm, he still had to be extremely careful and not act rashly.

Various thoughts flashed by in an instant.

Many thoughts came to mind.

Ning Qi stood quietly under the peach tree and slowly closed his eyes.

Everything unfolded naturally, and his Divine Intent effortlessly reached the realm of Perfection. His Divine Intent was far beyond what others could compare to, and covering the entire True Martial Mountain was merely a trivial matter. At this moment, it swept across everything.

He saw a True Martial disciple diligently practicing in the Martial Training Ground, it seemed to be the boy named Gou Dan; he saw his eldest brother leave the Martial Training Ground with his hands behind his back, a satisfied look on his face; he saw his second brother frowning at his desk; he saw his master holding a scripture, deep in thought, when suddenly his brows furrowed, as if he had noticed something, and he glanced in surprise in the direction of Dao-Seeking Courtyard...

Ning Qi found this state incredibly miraculous.

But it's fleeting.

He simply tried his best to remember this state.

In an instant.

The immense Divine Intent contracted, as if subjected to a tremendous suction force, creating huge waves in the invisible void before shrinking entirely into Ning Qi's body.

now.

The Yuan Pill within Ning Qi's body radiated golden light and spun endlessly.

This is the activated state of the Yuan Pill. At this moment, one should unite with Perfection Divine Intent to seek the vast power in the the Unseen. In the future, one can easily resonate and control it. Although it is just a resonance like "swinging a sledgehammer" or "leveraging a lever", it is enough to unleash unparalleled power.

This is the origin of the saying "All beings below the Celestial Person are but ants."

For ordinary people, this hurdle is extremely difficult. Previously, Daoist Longshan was stuck at this point and could not understand it. He finally broke through to the Celestial Person Realm by going into seclusion. During this time, he also put the True Martial Sect in a minor but dangerous situation.

But for Ning Qi, it couldn't be simpler.

He was already adept at creating the art of Celestial Person.

At this moment, under his control, the Divine Intent had instantly grafted a "bridge" with the Yuan Pill within his body. This "bridge" is the "bridge between Celestial Person and man," which is the key to connecting heaven and earth through the human body.

The bridge between Celestial Person and man is now complete.

Ning Qi thus naturally stepped into the Celestial Person Realm.

His body trembled.

I immediately sensed that something was different.

In an instant.

The whole world had changed in his eyes. Unlike before, when he could vaguely perceive the power of heaven and earth through the secret technique of the Celestial Person, he could now clearly "see" it. He saw that there were streams of power like fireflies surging and sweeping across the world, and their vastness and magnificence were simply unimaginable.

"Is this the power of heaven and earth?"

Ning Qi was deeply shocked, feeling a sense of glimpsing the true nature of the world. Streams of inspiration surged in his mind. If he could wield such power as easily as his own arm, it would be unimaginable. Destroying the world would be an extremely easy task.

Unfortunately, even those at the Celestial Person Realm can only use it superficially, without grasping its essence. Perhaps only Martial Saint can truly master this power.

Ning Qi gained some intuitive understanding of the power of the Martial Saint.

He took a deep breath.

Calm your mind.

He remained standing quietly under the peach tree, sensing the changes within his body. Under the influence of the bridge between Celestial Person and man, waves of boundless vitality spread throughout his body, further advancing the essence of his life and extending his lifespan. Along with this came another sublimation of his understanding, allowing his thoughts and ideas to touch upon the essence of things.

"My lifespan is now probably nearly twice that of an ordinary Celestial Person Realm!"

Ning Qi's lips curved slightly, a hint of delight in his expression.

Although he is still far from achieving his goal of immortality, the feeling of growing step by step makes him happy, and the process of pursuing immortality is equally important.

Each leap in life represents a step closer to his goal.

This is the satisfaction of "attaining enlightenment".

Ning Qi continued to sense the changes within his body. Thanks to the Bridge between Celestial Person and Man, his essence, energy, and spirit had all improved to a certain extent, but not to a degree that the Yuan Pill Realm could not reach. He then realized that the Ancient Books was correct. If the power of heaven and earth were disregarded, the Celestial Person Realm was not actually that much stronger than the Yuan Pill Realm.

This is the fundamental reason why women from southern Xinjiang dared to venture into the mountains at night carrying the Heaven-Sensing Gu.

Ning Qi is an unprecedented exception.

He took a deep breath, connecting the Celestial Person and the earth.

In an instant.

A vast and boundless power of heaven and earth roared in from all directions. This quantity was far, far greater than what Ning Qi had previously obtained through the resonance of the Celestial Person Secret Technique, probably more than a hundred times stronger.

Even though Ning Qi tried to conceal it, there were still some ripples and disturbances.

Ordinary disciples would have thought it was just a strong wind in the night sky, but the astonishment in Daoist Longshan's eyes was even greater. He had a certain guess, which then turned into a strong sense of surprise and anticipation. He took a step and slowly walked towards the Dao-Seeking Courtyard.

"I have just stepped into the Celestial Person Realm, but the power of heaven and earth that I can resonate with is probably no less than that of those peerless experts who have reached the Celestial Person Perfection, and may even be far superior. In addition, considering my massive amount of Gang Essence, the power of my various secret techniques will increase by at least ten times, if not a hundredfold."

"And this is not the limit. Having stepped into the Celestial Person Realm this time, I have so many inspirations in my heart. As long as I calm down and digest them for a period of time, I can make great progress in both the Celestial Person Secret Technique and the Celestial Sword Technique."

"Then if we were to face Martial Saint now, we would definitely not be powerless to fight back!"

Ning Qi was certain of his decision.

He didn't know how powerful the Martial Saint really was, so he could only imagine it from a distance, trying to make it as powerful as possible.

But now that he has seen the true nature of heaven and earth, he roughly understands that the strength of Martial Saint lies in his ability to truly develop the essence of the power of heaven and earth. Although his own power is not as strong as it is, he can still overcome quality with quantity.

Only Ning Qi could do something like this.

When ordinary people reach the Celestial Person Realm, their own Gang Qi does not disappear, but compared with the power of the heaven and earth, it is undoubtedly relegated to a mere accessory, only serving as a catalyst when cultivating the Qi Flower. However, Ning Qi Qi's Gang Qi possesses equally powerful strength, and the combination of the two is unprecedented in ancient times.

also.

The many secret techniques he mastered and the high level of his cultivation were beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

Ning Qi thought so.

Even the most powerful Martial Saint wouldn't be this defying the heavens.

He felt somewhat relieved.

Since learning that the Demon Sect and the Southern Frontier would soon have Martial Saint students, he did not show it on his face and even comforted his master and senior brother, but he was under a lot of pressure in his heart. He could escape, but the lives of the two thousand disciples of the True Martial Sect could not be saved.

now.

Finally, we have some confidence.

"However, that's not enough; we need to become even stronger."

He has just stepped into the Celestial Person Realm and still has a lot of room for growth. He will make rapid progress in a short period of time. Moreover, after stepping into the Celestial Person Realm, he can continue to study the secrets of the White Ape Bloodline and Zhuang Chen's Innate Sword Bone.

However, we cannot work in isolation.

Ning Qi made up his mind to adopt a two-pronged approach.

While continuing to strengthen themselves, they must also find out the location of the Martial Saint' secret locations on both sides. It would be best to strike first, rather than waiting for the other side to become stronger before they retaliate.

Now that his strength has greatly increased, he feels he can move freely in the southern border region of the Demon Sect. Of course, it would be best if this crisis could be nipped in the bud.

but.

The Demon Sect has always been cunning, with multiple burrows. Even the Great Flame Martial Saint had failed to eradicate them before. It will not be easy for Ning Qi to find their secret location. This matter cannot be rushed, otherwise, if we alert them and fail to destroy the Martial Saint's secret location, it will only make them more alert and allow them to hide even deeper.

As he was thinking, he slightly opened his eyes and looked ahead with a smile.

The Daoist Longshan strolled over, and upon seeing Ning Qi's completely different demeanor, his eyes filled with anticipation and hope:

"Little Nine, you..."

Ning Qi smiled and nodded.

The Daoist Longshan was stunned. His hope for a comeback seemed like a dream, and after a moment, he burst into laughter.

"Excellent! Excellent! You truly deserve to be my guardian of the True Martial!"

His laughter grew more relaxed as he looked up at the sky, making sure Ning Qi didn't notice the tears welling up in his eyes.

Ning Qi was filled with emotion.

During this period of time, it wasn't just him who was under some pressure; Daoist Longshan and Luo Wentian were also under considerable pressure. While managing the Fire Seed Project, they couldn't help but feel apprehensive. Now, their hardships have finally come to an end.

The bright moon hangs high in the sky.

Master and disciple strolled side by side, chatting and laughing, and felt that the True Martial Sect had hope again.

No one in the world knew that Ning Qi had quietly broken through to a higher realm and possessed combat power far exceeding that of the Celestial Person Realm.

All eyes are now on the Sunset Sword Sect and the True Martial Sect.

Martial artists gathered.

Waiting for the Blade Demon to arrive.

The atmosphere at True Martial Mountain was incredibly lively, with many people leaving their martial arts legacy on the True Martial Sword Stele and the Myriad Paths Tower. This delighted Ning Qi, as his Sword Intent had already surpassed the realm that the Blade Demon had dreamed of, and by more than a little. With one path leading to ten thousand, his blade technique had also reached the point where "everything can be a blade."

Ning Qi had roughly guessed as much.

This level of attainment is one of the conditions for becoming Martial Saint, but it is only one of the conditions.

Before even reaching the Celestial Person Realm, the Blade Demon was no match for him, and now it was even more so. Ning Qi remained calm, not focusing his energy on this dilemma.

If the Blade Demon comes to challenge us sooner, we can defeat him sooner; if he comes later, we can defeat him later.

He now ignores all the speculations of the world and focuses solely on comprehending the many wonders of the Celestial Person Realm.

He is elevating the secret art of the Celestial Person, or rather, it has become a completely new secret art.

This secret technique had previously allowed him to grasp the secrets of the Celestial Person ahead of time, but now that he had stepped into the Celestial Person Realm, it seemed to have lost its usefulness. However, Ning Qi carefully studied it and felt that there was still room for further exploration. He did not fully know the many wonders of the human body's Root Bone.

Now, as he focused intently on comprehending the concept, a flash of inspiration struck him: he wanted to borrow the idea of the Bridge Between Celestial Person and Man and use the human body's Root Bone as a medium to build a second Bridge Between Celestial Person and Man!

in this way.

With both bridges of Celestial Person and earth working together, Ning Qi's resonance with the power of heaven and earth can be multiplied. In fact, if the two bridges of Celestial Person can enhance each other, the effect will be more than just doubling; it is very likely to become three or four times stronger.

This will greatly enhance Ning Qi's combat power.

Therefore, he even temporarily put aside his subsequent cultivation of the Celestial Person Realm, because it was the fastest way to increase his strength, and he had to master it immediately.

But no one else in the world was as calm as Ning Qi.

The matter of the Sword Demon continues to cause turmoil.

Half a month after the defeat of the Canghai Sword Sect.

To the surprise of all martial artists, the Blade Demon reappeared. They had thought he would go into seclusion for another month or even longer, but it turned out to be only half a month.

He slowly stepped onto the Mountain Gate the Sunset Sword Sect, causing everyone to erupt in excitement.

"The Blade Demon chooses to challenge the Sun-Chasing Sword King first!"

"Doesn't this mean that in his heart, the Heavenly Sword Real Person is the strongest one? If so, it seems that the Blade Demon must have gone to True Martial Mountain and only realized after seeing the True Martial Sword Stele that this was his destined strongest opponent, thus leaving the Heavenly Sword Real Person until the very end!"

Hearing such remarks, everyone in the Sunset Sword Sect was secretly furious.

However, after being reprimanded by their ancestor, the members of the Sunset Sword Sect had already changed their mindset. Although they were angry, they were not so furious as to lose their temper. Since things had come to this point, the only thing to do was to let the facts speak for themselves.

They only know that...

If the Blade Demon were to be defeated by his own ancestor, then the Blade Demon would no longer care who is stronger.
