Spirituality Revival

Watching the Prince of Zhenbei depart, Ning Qi and Luo Wentian a smile.

It has to be said.

The Prince of Zhenbei was very generous.

Not only was Ning Qi's private territory expanded, but he was also granted many privileges, treatment that no other ancient sage had received.

Ning Qi's strength is one aspect, but the most important thing is that Li Ling is here. The more prosperous the True Martial Sect is, the more care his son will receive.

However, what he didn't know was that even without these preferential treatments, the True Martial Sect and others would not mistreat Li Ling in any way.

"I'm going to be busy again." Luo Wentian rubbed his hands together expectantly.

With nearly two more prefectures under his control, he bears a heavy responsibility. If he cannot bring these forces under his command, it's just empty talk. This is different from managing a martial arts sect; there are many details to pay attention to.

Ning Qi nodded and said:

"That's right, but the most important thing is to pay attention to the upcoming Spirituality resurgence and see if there are any changes within the country."

After learning the essence of the Spirituality revival from the old Daoist priest of Bai Shan, Ning Qi knew that when the world changed drastically, the area of the two prefectures might increase more than tenfold!

And most importantly, there is a possibility that rare and precious treasures may be discovered.

This is the fundamental reason why the Barbarian King and many ancient sages wanted to carve out a territory for their own use.

The more beautiful and spiritually rich the place, the greater the probability.

The Barbarian Emperor possesses the grasslands, which seem vast, but in reality, they may not be comparable to the territory of a single province of the Great Flame.

Time keeps passing.

The atmosphere in the world is clearly changing.

As ancient sages returned one by one, even a fool could tell that something was amiss. Many people went to great lengths to approach the ancient sages, hoping to uncover the truth. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, some scattered information gradually began to circulate.

A great change is about to happen in the world!

At that time, mountains and rivers will swell and transform into the Ancient Mountain God River. Moreover, the energy between heaven and earth will be more abundant, making it easier for martial artists to cultivate, and it is hoped that the High Antiquity martial arts peak will be restored!

This news came out.

Everyone was in an uproar.

According to records, many Martial Saint were born in each era of High Antiquity, but after the decline for some unknown reason, the difficulty of producing Martial Saint increased significantly. Later, there were at most one or two in an era.

Now, the world has changed dramatically, cultivation has become easier, and a brand new era is about to begin.

Those martial artists at the Celestial Person Realm, in particular, were extremely excited.

Most of the Celestial Person Realm warriors of this era only cultivate a single realm, because there is no hope of reaching the Martial Saint. It is better to pursue stronger combat power in a short period of time. However, now, many people are beginning to rekindle their hope, and even at the cost of rebuilding their realm.

certainly.

Some people are taking a wait-and-see approach.

But at some point, more accurate information began to emerge, along with some incomplete Martial Saint Inheritance!

This caused an even greater stir in the martial arts world.

Every time a fragmented Martial Saint's Inheritance appears, it triggers a bloodbath, as if an invisible hand is driving everything from behind the scenes.

The world is in turmoil.

Ning Qi, on the other hand, sat upright on True Martial Mountain, quietly watching the idle clouds.

He is now in a very peaceful state of mind. Everything is ready except for the final push. He is just waiting for the day when Spirituality strikes again soars to new heights.

Not long after returning from southern Xinjiang.

Daoist Longshan has already successfully reached the realm of Perfection Celestial Person.

Qin Yun also began to go into seclusion to refine the Tongtian Pill with all his might. According to Ning Qi's estimate, he could reach the Perfection realm of the Celestial Person in another month, and there was a very high probability that he would reach the Perfection of the Celestial Person before the Spirituality was restored.

So, according to this calculation...

Besides Ning Qi, the True Martial Sect also has three other martial artists at the Perfection of the Celestial Person: Daoist Longshan, Qin Yun, and Dao Mo.

At that time.

With the help of the once-in-tens-thousands-years fortuitous opportunity of Spirituality revival, one can step into the realm of Martial Saint in one fell swoop.

If you miss this fortuitous opportunity, you'll have to rely on hard work every day to hone your skills, which will take much longer.

Ning Qi was just a little disappointed that his other fellow disciples couldn't take advantage of this fortuitous opportunity to soar to new heights. There was nothing he could do, after all, even Jiang Baishan, who was the fastest cultivator among them, was still some distance from the Yuan Pill Realm. The various Secret Method Ning Qi had created had already made their cultivation speed extremely fast, but unfortunately, their foundations were not deep enough.

but.

Ning Qi estimated that their cultivation speed would increase after the Spirituality was restored.

Besides the improvement in cultivation level.

It is the deduction of various Secret Method.

Ning Qi continuously simplified the Myriad Paths Nirvana Technique, eventually developing a secret technique suitable for the three Blade Demons based on their specialized paths. Although it could not completely remove the life poison like the Myriad Paths Nirvana Technique, its effect of weakening the life poison was stronger than the secret technique that Xuan Turtle had previously given to Ning Qi.

also.

It is the bloodline awakening secret technique of the White Ape and Zhuang Chen.

After much deduction, Ning Qi discovered that the solutions were the same: the key to ensuring the two of them could safely awaken their bloodlines and sword bones when their Spirituality revived lay in minimizing the effects of the life-threatening poison.

Since that's the case.

Ning Qi then started his deductions from the Myriad Paths Nirvana Method again. However, since the White Ape and Zhuang Chen were far from reaching the Three Flowers Perfection Realm, they were unable to condense the Three Flowers. Therefore, he took a different approach and deduced a suitable method based on their unique characteristics.

Zhuang Chen was based on his Innate Sword Bone, while White Ape's method was based on his Spirit Beast bloodline.

This way, the effects of the life poison can be weakened during the awakening. Moreover, Ning Qi will be there to watch over things, so even if it fails, there won't be any problems. However, Ning Qi didn't mention the existence of the life poison to them. He just taught them the Secret Method and told them to study it thoroughly and master it, as it would be of great use when their Spirituality recovers.

Beneath the Enlightenment Tea Tree, Ning Qi lay back, utterly comfortable.

When the Water and Fire Twin Dragons were refining the Golden Bone, the essence of the Gu God's flesh and blood that was scattered in the void was not wasted. Ning Qi collected it, since it could be considered "Martial Saint's flesh and blood" to some extent. After Ning Qi brought it back, he refined it into a Blood Pill and used it to cultivate the Enlightenment Tea Tree.

Therefore, the Enlightenment Tea Trees are now even more lush, covering almost half of the Dao-Seeking Courtyard.

Ning Qi slowly unfolded a letter.

That was sent by the old Daoist priest from Bai Shan.

The content above is also very simple.

"Two months later, your Spirituality will return; don't miss this fortuitous opportunity!"

Ning Qi sat up, his eyes sparkling with anticipation.

In fact.

Lately, he has often been able to sense some subtle changes in the world. Sometimes, when he feels like it and observes the night sky, the feeling becomes even more pronounced, as if some astonishing change is approaching, but he cannot predict the exact time.

And now.

The ancient sages, such as the old Daoist priest of Bai Shan, knew the specific date.

In the letter.

Besides giving Ning Qi some instructions, the old Daoist from Bai Shan also explained that he was about to go into seclusion to adjust his condition to its peak. He would come to True Martial Mountain as soon as his Spirituality energy recovered. He advised Ning Qi not to go out unless it was important, and to cultivate his essence, energy, and spirit to the extreme, as this would be more effective.

After reading it, Ning Qi couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

"It's finally here!"

His eyes gleamed; the long-awaited resurgence of Spirituality finally had a definite date.

"Two months is enough for Eighth Senior Brother to reach the Perfection of the Celestial Person, and it also allows the others in the sect more time to prepare."

Ning Qi stretched his body and silently remembered the kindness of the old Daoist priest Bai Shan. Although he often teased the old Bai Shan, he knew in his heart that the other party had helped him a lot.

Time keeps passing.

Unbeknownst to most, the True Martial Sect's strength is growing at an astonishing rate, with its disciples' abilities changing daily—a phenomenon that would leave anyone speechless.

And the day when the Spirituality would be restored, as the old Daoist priest of Bai Shan had said, was drawing ever closer.

The True Martial Sect has also completely closed its mountain, temporarily shutting down the True Martial Sword Stele and the Ten Thousand Paths Tower, no longer opening them to the public.

These actions caught the attention of some people with ulterior motives, and they felt a chill run down their spines.

Rumors about a major upheaval in the martial arts world are now intensifying.

Not only martial artists, but even ordinary people are filled with fear, because it is said that after the great change in the world, the earth's veins will surge, and the world will be more than ten times larger than before. This may not be a good thing for mortals, but may instead be a catastrophic disaster.

Fortunately.

The Great Flame Dynasty was not without its measures.

Armies marched into the great city, each with a powerful leader in command.

Centered on the state capital, the plan radiates outwards, with prefectural and county towns assisting, aiming to relocate as many of the Great Flame people as possible into the city. Those who are unable to relocate or unwilling to leave will simply be left to fend for themselves.

Such a dramatic movement almost confirms the rumors that a great change is about to happen.

Some forces also caused trouble during this process, attempting to smuggle and seize resources, but they were suppressed by the powerful figures of the Great Flame with swift and decisive action. However, human greed prevails, and some people believe that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so even if one group is suppressed, another will emerge.

On the eve of a revival of Spirituality.

The world is now in a state of stability amidst underlying chaos.

Ning Qi knew all this and could only sigh.

The resurgence of Spirituality is undoubtedly a tremendous fortuitous opportunity for the strong, but for ordinary people, a tenfold increase in the size of the earth's veins is not good news. It means that the familiar territory they once knew will no longer exist, and they will need to adapt to a new environment.

"What a magnificent sight it would be if one day everyone in the world embarked on the path of martial arts!"

Ning Qi whispered.

The people of the Great Flame Dynasty number in the hundreds of millions. Many of them may have unparalleled martial arts talent, but they have no opportunity to embark on the path of martial arts. After all, many people need to use all their strength just to survive. For example, Luo Nianchu, if it weren't for the fortuitous opportunity to join the True Martial Sect, would have gradually become just an ordinary person and would never have had the fortuitous opportunity to become the third-generation chief disciple of the True Martial Sect.

But the thought was fleeting.

Ning Qi does not yet possess that ability. If one day he can benefit all living beings and then use those living beings to nourish himself, that would be a win-win situation.

He simply kept the thought to himself.

All we can do right now is take care of the people around us.

The day when Spirituality returns is drawing ever closer.

Martial law was imposed on True Martial Mountain to prevent anyone from taking advantage of the chaos, and even the identities of martial artists coming and going in True Martial City were checked.

And on True Martial Mountain.

Ning Qi then gathered Daoist Longshan and all his fellow disciples near the Dao-Seeking Courtyard, fearing that something unexpected might happen when the Spirituality revived and he wouldn't be able to take care of them.

in this way.

Days passed.

Ning Qi's premonition grew stronger, and he gradually became able to sense a certain signal in the world. He would look up at the sky from time to time, and he had a feeling that the source of the Spirituality revival was right there!

This day.

Everyone gathered at the Dao-Seeking Courtyard, their expressions tense.

"Little Nine, are you sure it's today?" Even the usually calm Daoist Longshan couldn't help but swallow unconsciously. The others were even more uneasy. Younger ones like Zhuang Chen and Li Ling had already begun to tremble, as if some kind of will in the world had begun to affect them.

Ning Qi nodded slightly:

"They've arrived."

His eyes held a look of anticipation and fervor.

The words had barely left his mouth.

Boom!!

A deafening roar, powerful enough to silence the heavens and earth, resounded throughout the world. At that moment, no matter where you were, you could hear this thunderous sound.

Everyone stared in horror at the void above.

This resounding boom was like the sound of the Tao, striking directly at the soul.

Boom!!

Boom!!

One deafening roar after another shook the heavens and the earth. At this moment, all living beings instinctively looked up into the void.

There was fear, there was awe, there was fanaticism, there was expectation, there was greed...

The Dao sounded nine times, as if the heavens had opened a valve.

This moment.

Ancient sages from all corners of the world opened their eyes in excitement and fervor:

"It's awake! Our plan was a success!"

Ning Qi listened to the nine Daoist sounds, his mind was filled with inspiration, and he had already entered a state of enlightenment. These Daoist sounds contained unparalleled mysteries, and if he could make them his own, it would be of great benefit.

This is the Origin sound, far more useful than any martial art in the world.

As the last utterance faded away.

The power of heaven and earth in the void began to fluctuate. All the martial artists at the Celestial Person Realm were shocked to discover that the power of heaven and earth, which they used to be able to control with ease, was now like a wild horse that could not be resonated with at all.

Ning Qi was prepared and wasn't flustered at all.

"Spirituality is about to awaken!"

As the whispers rang out, almost everyone saw a burst of dazzling light erupt in the void!

That was a manifestation of Spirituality reaching a certain level of intensity!

Ning Qi was unusually excited.

He had extracted Spirituality from the Martial Saint's secret treasure and even synthesized some Spiritual Qi for his own experiments, but now that he had truly witnessed the Spirituality of this world, he realized how insignificant his previous little bit of Spirituality was.

now.

An almost endless Spirituality surged from the void, like a valve being opened, unleashing a torrent of water from the heavens, from the void, and from every inch of the surrounding earth.

The power of heaven and earth grew increasingly violent.

An incredibly rich Spirituality merges with it, and a power full of infinite vitality is born, or rather, is reborn.

The ancient sages sensed that incomparably familiar power, and were filled with emotion; some even laughed wildly to the sky.

Spiritual Qi!

An incredibly rich Spiritual Qi once again filled every inch of space between heaven and earth!

Amidst such a surging tide...

Everyone in the world sensed the existence of Spiritual Qi, even ordinary people. This incredibly magical power filled the world and had already begun to show its signs. Countless people were moved to tears. They didn't know why, but they felt that it was an instinct from their very souls.

Spirituality has been ignited, and Spiritual Qi has returned.

A great change began to occur in the world!
