Kill the Chicken to Warn the Monkey

After thirty years of seclusion, Ning Qi's reincarnated body finally reached the Integration Realm, becoming the strongest being in the Northern Xuan Region.

According to his original plan, he intended to spend a hundred years to reach this realm.

However, due to the creation of the Five Elements Divine Chains, which allows the body to automatically condense the Origin of rules from the Boundary Sea, its physical form advances extremely rapidly.

This reincarnated body naturally also received the blessing of the original body, and over the past thirty years, it has gained a complete understanding of the power of the thirty-one rules.

In addition, the situation outside the world is tense and a war in the spirit world could break out at any time. The will of the Mountain and Sea Realm is urging the various sects to attack the small worlds, and there are also undercurrents in the North and South Domains.

Taking advantage of the destruction of the Northern Profound Sect, the Feathered Ascension Sect of the Southern True Domain secretly plotted some things in the Northern Profound Domain.

Although Niu Dingtian, the combined ancestor of the Bull Demon Sect, promised to help them stop the Feather Transformation Sect and the Heavenly Chen Sect, relying on others alone is not enough to intimidate the heroes.

Therefore, Ning Qi, as the leader of a sect, must display his formidable strength at this moment.

Within the Wuji Sword Sect.

The wind and clouds changed color, seven-colored mist surged from the ground, and various divine lights of different colors erupted in the sky, all ultimately converging on Ning Qi.

He stood high in the heavens, like the only light in the world.

The Integration Realm allows one to merge the power of the rules into their own body, granting them great Divine Ability in every gesture.

Ning Qi's internal organs were the most outstanding, because he mastered the rules of the Five Elements, so the rules of the Five Elements were directly integrated into Ning Qi internal organs.

The lungs (metal), liver (wood), kidneys (water), heart (fire), and spleen (earth) internally transform into the five elements, naturally resonating with the voice of the Great Dao.

Ning Qi regarded the Five Elements rules as the foundation, which could drive the other rules to work together.

Now, Ning Qi can unleash various Divine Ability Divine Ability with a single breath, such as Samadhi Fire, Five Elements Divine Thunder, and Lung Metal Sword Qi.

Upon reaching the Integration Realm, each battle is no longer as troublesome as in the Primordial Spirit Realm, where one needs to use their Primordial Spirit to communicate with heaven and earth and condense rules from between heaven and earth to fight.

Now that rules exist, one can be driven entirely by physical strength, which can be considered as a small world governed by rules.

Just like when Ning Qi used his physical body to fight Zhou Tianzi of the Northern Profound Sect, his fighting style will now lean more towards physical attacks.

Therefore, all the physical Cultivation Method he previously knew can now shine brightly in the Integration Realm!

All the True Disciple and elders of the Wuji Sword Sect flew towards Ning Qi.

Now that the sect leader has emerged from seclusion again, he may be able to preach to them once more.

Gazing at that ethereal figure, everyone felt both awe and joy.

After hundreds of thousands of years of existence, the Wuji Sword Sect has finally produced a giant at the Integration Realm, and he is so young.

How fortunate is the Wuji Sword Sect to have welcomed such a celestial being!

How fortunate they were to be born in the same era as Ning Qi!

An elderly elder named Peng Duoshou was overjoyed and wept tears of joy. He was nearing the end of his life and never expected to see the Wuji Sword Sect become a top sect before he reached the end of his life.

He knew even more clearly that this was not the end for the Wuji Sword Sect, but a brand new beginning.

Because he believed in Ning Qi!

When Ning Qi passed on his teachings last time, Peng Duoshou broke through his lifespan limit and extended his lifespan again. Now, he feels that he might find it difficult to die even if he wanted to.

Ning Qi felt completely clear-headed; at this moment, he entered a strange state.

Without needing to see with the naked eye or observe with Divine Sense, one can perceive the movements of everyone in the Wuji Sword Sect simply by relying on their senses.

They flew in like birds, wanting to pay homage to him, the king of birds.

Ning Qi snapped out of his daze and murmured, "Is this the Integration Realm?"

His true form, being a realm lord, followed a different path. Ning Qi could only comprehend the path of ordinary cultivators through this reincarnated body.

In comparison, Ning Qi felt that the Integration Realm of ordinary cultivators did indeed have its merits.

The Realm Lord's true form can see through everything in the True Martial, because as the Realm Lord, the world is me, and I am the world.

As the reincarnated body advanced to the Integration Realm, Ning Qi felt that his physical body had also become a small world, a small world different from the Great World, and it also had some of the power of a world.

However, ordinary cultivators at the Integration Realm ultimately rely on the path of the Spirit Realm for cultivation and are still subject to the control of the Spirit Realm's will.

He didn't have this concern, after all, he possessed the true Dao, only disguised as the Dao of the Spirit Realm.

Although Ning Qi has just stepped into the Integration Realm, in terms of combat strength, even a typical Perfection Integration Realm cultivator might not be his match.

Ning Qi's figure slowly landed on the central mountain peak plaza.

All the True Disciple and elders of the sect gathered and, in accordance with their rank, sat around Ning Qi.

Congratulations, Sect Master, on reaching the Integration Realm!

Everyone said in unison.

Ning Qi nodded slightly, and with a thought, he sensed the situation of everyone as clearly as a mirror.

Now, thirty years have passed, and everyone's cultivation has progressed by leaps and bounds.

Those who were close to him, in particular, at least broke through a small level.

Zi Yang, Jiang Ruhai, Cang Wanhe, and others have already reached the Perfection of the Void Path and are attempting to condense the rules onto their bodies, heading towards the half-step Integration Realm.

"I have already shown you the path from condensing your Primordial Spirit to Perfection of the Void Dao. Now I will demonstrate the method of merging the body into your minds."

Ning Qi once again used the Primordial Spirit Embryo Technique to separate the rules and form a rule-based human figure, which then performed the Dao in the void, demonstrating to everyone how to break through the void Dao and enter the Integration stage.

The elders inside the sect gazed at the figure of the rule in the void, even concealing their own breathing, and focused their Primordial Spirit power on their corresponding rule-based Dao figures, experiencing it firsthand.

They had long known the methods for breakthrough from their respective cultivation methods, but knowing is one thing, doing is another, so how could they not have doubts and make mistakes?

Clearly, the special training the sect leader gave them was far more effective in comparison.

Ning Qi has shown them a completely correct and unquestionable path; as long as they follow this path, they will surely succeed!

Moreover, everyone discovered that Ning Qi gave them far exceeded their own understanding and even surpassed the methods they had learned.

It truly felt like an immortal had touched my head, granting me eternal life.

After the demonstration ended, Ning Qi continued, "This is the method for breakthrough. I have other methods to impart to you."

Upon hearing this, the lower-level True Disciple were overjoyed.

After all, the method of merging was ultimately too far removed from their reality.

The sect leader also has other methods to impart; how could they not be delighted?

Next, Ning Qi passed on the perfected Wuji Sword Manual to everyone, and also created many other sword manuals suitable for different rules and talents.

Everyone was incredibly excited and readily accepted the offer.

In particular, his disciples, who were previously only the ten True Disciple, were not spared such profound teachings. Now that Ning Qi has become the sect leader, he has not even kept them from him.

How could they not be willing to die for such a leader?

Ning Qi's prestige among the people was no different from that of an immortal. All his disciples had seen the hope that their Wuji Sword Sect would become the overlord of the Northern Xuan Region, and even more so, not just the Northern Xuan Region...

After the teachings were finished, everyone left one by one.

Only Ning Qi and Sword Ancestor remained at the scene.

Sword Ancestor looked at Ning Qi, his sword-like eyes filled with longing.

However, before he could speak, Ning Qi spoke first.

"Sword Ancestor, I know what you want to say."

The Sword Ancestor was taken aback.

Looking at Ning Qi again, he had already teleported directly to his side.

Ning Qi formed a sword-finger gesture, pointing it at the miniature Five Elements Divine Chain seal he had left on the Sword Ancestor's forehead. With his cultivation at the Integration Realm, he reinforced the Five Elements Divine Chain, increasing its power to seal the Evil Qi energy within the Sword Ancestor's body.

Suddenly, Sword Ancestor let out a long roar and broke through to the Integration Realm after Ning Qi, which shocked everyone in the Boundless Sword Sect once again!

"Congratulations to the Sect Master! Congratulations to the Sword Ancestor!"

The Wuji Sword Sect has produced two Nascent Soul Realm experts; who in the North and South regions can rival them?

Next, the Sword Ancestor told Ning Qi all the news from the outside world that he had been in charge of for the past thirty years.

"Kid, do you think we've been too low-key?" Sword Ancestor licked his lips, his eyes seeming to hold the sharpness of a physical sword.

Ning Qi asked, "Why does the Sword Ancestor say that?"

The Sword Ancestor slowly began to speak.

"After you went into seclusion, I took charge of the Wuji Sword Sect for thirty years, always following your advice to keep the sect in a low profile."

"But those guys outside underestimate and despise us, completely forgetting the power of the battle against the Wuji Sword Sect that day."

The battle that the Sword Ancestor spoke of was naturally the battle in which eight powerful figures from the Northern Profound Sect joined forces and were annihilated by Ning Qi.

Many sects sent powerful figures to participate in Ning Qi's succession ceremony as sect leader, and Ning Qi killed five powerful figures from five sects.

Logically speaking, after the destruction of the Northern Profound Sect, no other sect should be able to rival the Limitless Sword Sect.

But things have not turned out this way over the past thirty years.

Sword Ancestor continued:

"While we were biding our time, several sects seized a significant portion of our assets outside the sect, and even some of our Spirit Vein."

Ning Qi said, "There must be a top sect from the Southern True Domain pulling the strings behind this, right?"

Sword Ancestor smiled, "You're right. Without their backing, where would these sects in the Northern Profound Region get their guts?"

Sword Ancestor's tone suddenly turned as chilling as Sword-Ray's edge.

"Now that you've emerged from seclusion, and we've both broken through to the Integration Realm, it's time to reclaim what belongs to us and make an example of someone."

Ning Qi nodded and said, "Then we will do as the Sword Ancestor says."

After discussing it for a while, the two decided to release the news that Ning Qi had broken through to the Integration Realm first.

See if those sects have any remorse, then pick out the troublemakers and use them as an example to deter others.

These ordinary sects no longer hold much appeal for the two of them.

Even if we wipe them out, the gains won't be much; it's easier to surrender without a fight.

As for the Sword Ancestor's breakthrough, Ning Qi decided to keep it a secret. After all, as the foundation of the Wuji Sword Sect, it was better to keep the Sword Ancestor hidden.

In the True Martial, Ning Qi's physical strength also increased dramatically, his combat power rising from invincible in the Integration Realm to the Dao Integration Realm.

The changes within the True Martial are equally numerous.

The area of True Martial has expanded several times over, and its rules have become increasingly sophisticated.

All living beings are bathed in the grace of the Lord of the Realm, and there are many cultivators.

With the help of the Enlightenment Tree, they essentially possess a weakened version of Max-Level Comprehension.

In addition, Ning Qi would occasionally preach the Dharma to the masses and share his experiences, resulting in a great number of powerful figures emerging in the True Martial.

In the past thirty years, there have been two thousand cultivators at the Primordial Spirit Realm, and more and more Primordial Spirit cultivators have broken through to become powerful beings.

Today, the True Martial's foundation has surpassed that of the Wuji Sword Sect, where Ning Qi's reincarnation resides.

Those acquaintances who were reincarnated at the same time as Ning Qi also each embarked on a completely new path.

Ning Qi used his power as a realm lord to contact some of them.

Beixuan Territory.

Luo Tian Shang Zong.

It was the sect where Zhuang Chen was reincarnated. He was incredibly lucky, arguably the best reincarnation among all the reincarnated individuals.

He is the son of the sect leader of the Luo Tian Shang Sect, and over the years, he has never had to worry about resources Cultivation Method.

Not only did he collect many Spirit Artifact for Ning Qi, but Zhuang Chen's own cultivation also broke through to the Void Dao Realm, making him a newly promoted powerhouse in the Luo Tian Shang Sect.

Given his status as the son of the sect leader, he is being groomed to be the next sect leader.

Even the hidden power behind the Luo Tian Shang Sect greatly admires him.

Zhuang Chen had sent word, asking Ning Qi when he would launch a counterattack on the Mountain and Sea Realm.

Ning Qi sighed helplessly; this kid was getting way too cocky!

However, Zhuang Chen could indeed influence the entire Luo Tian Shang Sect. He would respond to Ning Qi's order as soon as the entire sect did.

Qingxia Shangzong.

True Person Bai Shan joined his sect and became his inner disciple many years ago.

Now he has also been promoted to a great power, and has made great achievements in the Formation formations, and is highly valued by the entire Qingxia Sect.

The sect leader's daughter even clamored to marry him.

The protective Formation of the Qingxia Upper Sect are all maintained by True Person Bai Shan.

He also spoke, "Young Ning, when will you start your rebellion? Should we first take over the Qingxia Upper Sect? This old Daoist will personally activate the sect's protective formation for you!"

Among the acquaintances who were reborn in the Northern Xuan Region, only the two of them were there.

The others are scattered across various sects, and have all achieved considerable status within their respective sects.

Zhuang Chen and Bai Shan were aware of what Ning Qi's Wuji Sword Sect was facing, but both of them acted as if they didn't care!

What? The other sects are eyeing the Wuji Sword Sect? Is this some kind of foolproof plan?

When someone within their sect tried to persuade the sect leader to also target the Wuji Sword Sect, the two naturally used their positions within the sect to quell the situation.

In the Southern True Domain, there were naturally many reincarnated individuals, but none of them were acquaintances of Ning Qi from the past.

However, many people still sent messages to Ning Qi, detailing the situation within the Tianchen Upper Sect and the Yuhua Upper Sect.

It was indeed the Feathered Ascension Sect that was backing them up, which is why those sects in the Northern Profound Region dared to set their sights on the Limitless Sword Sect.

Ning Qi understood everything.

The Soaring Domain.

It is not far from the Northern Xuan Domain and the Southern Zhen Domain.

Upon hearing the message from the other side, even Ning Qi remained silent for a moment, a smile involuntarily appearing on his face.

Real Person Dragon Mountain was reborn in the Fuyou Domain.

The orphan's starting point is similar to Ning Qi's situation when he was reborn in the Northern Xuan Region.

However, the difference is that Real Person Dragon Mountain was the offspring of a holy maiden from another sect, and was brought back to the sect.

Their sect is called the Mysterious Maiden Sect, and all its members are female cultivators!

Fortunately, the Real Person Dragon Mountain was not reborn as a girl.

The Xuan Nu Sect originally only accepted women, but because he was the son of a holy maiden and possessed a Yin Spirit Root that was extremely compatible with the Xuan Nu Sect's Cultivation Method, he was exceptionally accepted into the sect.

Real Person Dragon Mountain, who only indulged in women all year round, immediately poured out his grievances and wanted to settle accounts with Ning Qi when he saw Ning Qi contact him!

Upon hearing this, Ning Qi, even though he had severed his seven emotions, could not help but almost burst out laughing.

What made him laugh even more was that his third senior sister, Ye Qinghe, had also been reborn in the Fuyou Domain and had become True Disciple of the Xuan Nu Sect.

Thus, the two, who were originally master and disciple, have now become senior and junior brothers.

Ye Qinghe sent a message, also complaining to Ning Qi.

She said that her master, Real Person Dragon Mountain, insisted that she block the beauties of the Xuan Nu Sect from getting close and disturbing his cultivation!

"Junior brother, I really miss the Monkey Wine from back then."

"You've ruined my life! When we meet again, you must give me enough wine to last a hundred years, or I'll team up with my master to make you pay!"

Even though the three of them only exchanged a few words, Ning Qi could still imagine the scene of the two of them spending time together, and he couldn't help but smile again.

It's really not his fault; it's all fate.

Ning Qi then responded to the two.

"Master, the mortal world tempers the heart!"

"Senior sister, protect your junior brother!"

Besides their obvious dissatisfaction, the two also sent back some other useful information.

Both of them are now highly valued by the Xuan Nu Sect and have achieved great power.

Ye Qinghe was selected as the contemporary Holy Maiden of the sect. Real Person Dragon Mountain, who was chaste and virtuous, was respected by all the women in the sect, who wanted him to be the protector of the sect.

Away from the Fire Domain.

The message came from my eighth senior brother Qin Yun.

He was born into the Fire Realm, of humble origins.

However, Tiansheng a fire spirit body, he easily joined the Vermilion Bird Sect of the Fire Domain.

He had many conflicts with the sect leader's son, but defeated him in the war for the ranking of True Disciple, becoming the first True Disciple.

If it weren't for the hidden strength of the Li Huo Sect in favor of him, and the fact that a Supreme Elder was on his side, he might have been killed by the Sect Master.

Fortunately, he quickly entered the Void Realm, gaining the ability to protect himself.

Now, Qin Yun is preparing to unite the elders and those with hidden strength to force the sect leader to abdicate.

Ning Qi was taken aback by Qin's plight; he hadn't expected Qin to have such a difficult journey. However, Ning Qi believed that Qin would definitely be able to overcome it.

One by one, news came from familiar people, allowing Ning Qi to learn about their current situations.

Generally speaking, everyone did quite well in their sect, becoming either an elder, a son-in-law, or the sect leader...

They also mentioned the fluctuations in the will of the Mountain and Sea Realm and matters related to the war in the Spirit Realm.

Ning Qi made a promise to everyone that when they participated in the Spirit Realm War, if they gathered together, they would unite to fight the enemy together and advance and retreat together!

Over the years, he has sown countless seeds in the mountains and seas, which have now taken root, sprouted, and grown into large trees that can shelter people from the wind and rain.

When they gather, it will surely create a huge stir.

The news of Ning Qi's breakthrough to the Integration Realm spread throughout the entire Northern Xuan Region.

Many sects, upon hearing this, were initially skeptical.

A sect immediately sent people to the Wuji Sword Sect to congratulate Ning Qi. Although the intention was to congratulate him, the main purpose was to investigate the situation.

Those powerful figures who participated in the succession ceremony of Sect Master Ning Qi were once again dispatched by the sect.

They came together, and having shared a similar experience last time, they all felt a deep sense of camaraderie.

I wonder if they will act the same way when they see Ning Qi this time?

After everyone met Ning Qi, those powerful figures indeed showed the same expression again, and they were all stunned on the spot.

The slight aura emanating from Ning Qi was enough to freeze them as if they were encased in a massive iceberg, rendering them unable to even twitch a finger.

After a while, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and came to their senses.

"Congratulations, Sect Master Ning! Although the Northern Profound Upper Sect has been destroyed, the Boundless Sword Sect is now even stronger. We can rest assured."

What reassured them was that the Northern Profound Domain had been without a Nascent Soul Realm expert for a long time, and the neighboring Southern True Domain would surely send top Nascent Soul Realm sects to spy on the Northern Profound Domain.

Although the Northern Profound Domain cannot compare to the Southern True Domain, it is still a domain. How could the top sects of the Southern True Domain stand idly by while eyeing such a lucrative opportunity?

With mixed feelings, the group returned to the sect to report to the sect leader.

Naturally, this once again shocked the sect leaders!

They issued orders one by one, forbidding anyone from ever provoking the Wuji Sword Sect again.

Of course, there were also those who didn't come, who happened to be from the sects where Ning Qi had killed five powerful figures last time.

After all, it was already quite good that they didn't seek revenge for the powerful figure's death, but it still caused dissatisfaction within the sect as a whole.

Therefore, when the Southern True Domain's Ascension Sect sent people to the Northern Profound Domain, the five major sects immediately responded to their actions.

Along with them, they divided up the assets left by the Northern Profound Sect. At the same time, seeing that the Wuji Sword Sect was keeping a low profile, they also took advantage of the momentum of the Feathered Ascension Sect to seize some of the Wuji Sword Sect's assets.

However, although they have not yet arrived, they have received confirmation from other sects that Ning Qi has entered the Integration Realm.

Immediately, three sects dispatched people to rush over.

Ning Qi didn't give them any face and didn't personally receive them, but instead had Vice Sect Master Cang Wanhe handle it.

Ultimately, due to Cang Wanhe's social obligations...

The three sects not only returned all the resources they had seized from the Wuji Sword Sect intact, but also gave a considerable amount as a congratulatory gift to Ning Qi on his promotion to a Grandmaster.

Anyone with eyes to see understands that what they called a congratulatory gift was clearly an apology, a way of expressing their fear of Ning Qi holding them accountable.

Although the Feathered Ascension Sect had ambitions to advance into the Northern Xuan Region, they were more intimidated by Ning Qi's power.

After all, Ning Qi could already kill peerless experts before his breakthrough; what would he be like afterward?

Of the five cases, three involved individuals personally visiting to apologize, while the remaining two remain unresolved.

They were unwilling to relinquish the spoils they had already taken, believing that Ning Qi had killed their powerful figures and that their encroachment on the resources of the Wuji Sword Sect was simply a way to recoup their losses and appease the sect members.

Moreover, the Feathered Ascension Sect has been established in the Southern True Domain for hundreds of thousands of years, and the top sects in the Southern True Domain are definitely stronger than those in the Northern Profound Domain.

Ning Qi has only just stepped into the Integration Realm; how could he possibly contend with the giants of the top sects in the Southern True Domain?

Ning Qi smiled; the sect that had made an example of him had finally appeared.

He directly instructed his elders to deliver a message, giving them a one-month deadline; if the two sects still did not come, they would have to bear the consequences themselves.

In one of the sects, the sect leader summoned the elders True Disciple to discuss the matter together.

The final conclusion was that the Wuji Sword Sect had the potential to soar to the heavens, and Ning Qi, since his name as a Celestial Seed spread, had won battle after battle, and no one had ever seen him use his true full strength.

Furthermore, since the Feathered Ascension Sect is based in the Southern True Domain, even if it could move north, it wouldn't genuinely care about sects like theirs.

Therefore, on the last three days of the month, the sect leader personally visited the Wuji Sword Sect.

He adopted an extremely humble posture, not only returning everything he had occupied, but even providing the Wuji Sword Sect with fifty years' worth of resources.

They also informed Ning Qi that the Feathered Ascension Sect was behind them, and that the Heavenly Chen Sect also intended to get involved.

Hopefully, Ning Qi will forgive them for what they have done.

Ning Qi remained silent for a moment, then glanced indifferently at the sect leader.

The other party didn't dare to breathe, their whole body looking as if they had been pulled out of the water.

He personally received the people sent by the Feathered Ascension Sect and immediately felt that they were indeed worthy of being from a top sect, with an imposing demeanor.

Now, facing Ning Qi, one realizes that one is on the ground and the other is in the heavens, as different as clouds and mud.

"Fine, I'll let you off this time. But if you dare do it again, you'll know what happens in a few days!"

"Thank you, Sect Master Ning!"

Three days passed quietly, and to the very end, the remaining members of the Blood Demon Sect never showed up.

Ning Qi wasn't angry; in fact, he was hoping for a tough nut to crack.

This day.

Ning Qi led the team, leaving Sword Ancestor to guard the Wuji Sword Sect, while many powerful figures and True Disciple followed behind, heading towards the Blood Demon Sect.
