World Tree Engraves the Dao, Transcendence Realm

Beneath the Cliff of Enlightenment.

The three strongest beings in the True Martial Spirit World now use the void as their canvas and their internal Law Power as their brushes to continuously refine the cultivation Cultivation Method practiced by the Mountain Ancestor.

With Ning Qi as the main figure and the Holy Ancestor and the Sea Ancestor as his assistants, the three of them devoted themselves wholeheartedly to the task.

The branches of the Enlightenment Realm tree swayed, and a beam of azure light descended, stimulating the wisdom of the three to its fullest extent.

As the three continued to comprehend and refine their Cultivation Method, the Enlightenment Tree underwent its first change, seemingly receiving a subtle feedback from the three's spiritual light.

Perhaps it was the power of the three, or perhaps it was the three perfecting their immortal cultivation Cultivation Method, that made the World Tree so sensitive to immortal Cultivation Method.

You can see that the leaves on its drooping branches have also changed at this moment, resonating with the method created by the three.

Its leaves are constantly changing, transforming into the leaves of all plants and trees in the world, and are not fixed.

At this moment, divine runes appeared on the leaves of the branches, as if they were being inscribed and recorded as a testament to the wisdom of the three...

If someone could take a leaf and give it to a cultivator who is just beginning their cultivation, they might be able to use that leaf as a foundation to cultivate all the way to the Dao Integration Realm.

A single leaf can be compared to a complete Dao-harmonizing profound skill!

However, the three of them were completely focused on the Cultivation Method in front of them and did not notice the changes in the leaves of the Enlightenment Realm Tree. Even Ning Qi did not perceive it.

They continued to dedicate themselves to the Dao, and it can be said that their communication penetrated to their very Divine Soul and even touched upon their respective Dao principles.

In their past, all three were sect leaders or patriarchs, and they often attained enlightenment alone, rarely communicating with others with their minds completely open.

But now, especially for the Holy Ancestor and the Sea Ancestor, this is the first time they have experienced such a practice of studying the Dao with cultivators of the same realm.

For a moment, they even forgot their own existence, reaching a state of selflessness.

The void gives rise to divine writings, time and space stand still, the Great Dao resonates...

After an unknown amount of time, a brand new immortal cultivation Cultivation Method appeared in the void.

Whether it was Ning Qi, or the Holy Ancestor Hai Zu, the three of them stood outside, their eyes shining brightly as they gazed at the divine runes in the void.

To their astonishment, they discovered that not a single word could be added or removed from this immortal cultivation Cultivation Method.

It has reached the pinnacle of what they have learned from other Immortal Method, and they can no longer deduce it to a deeper level. It has reached the most perfect state that the three of them can achieve at present.

"In my original plan, I would first use a natal divine script as a foundation, and then continuously expand upon it, which led to the later Hundred-Character Stele and Thousand-Character Script. This journey has been extremely difficult..."

The Holy Ancestor murmured.

"Now that I've seen this Cultivation Method that you two helped me perfect, I realize that I was previously just a frog in a well with a limited view of the sky..."

Human strength has its limits. No matter how powerful a person is, they will always have their own choices, interests, and preferences, and may overlook other things.

And these things are often found in others...

For example, the divine text before us is a work in which the Sea Ancestor helped the Holy Ancestor perfect the divine text related to the Water Moon's ultimate gentleness.

Ning Qi, on the other hand, used the rudimentary form of the Great Dao rune array and the Yin-Yang Dao diagram he currently possessed to modify the divine runes, making them more in line with the Great Dao...

Overall, Ning Qi's transformation was beyond his current level, and it can be said that Ning Qi played the most important role in it.

"This method can no longer be improved for the time being. How do you think it compares to the previous Daoist methods?"

Ning Qi seemed to have obsessive-compulsive disorder; he asked the Holy Ancestor.

As the Holy Ancestor stroked his beard, the smile on his old face stretched almost to his ears and never disappeared.

"Excellent!"

Haizu bit her lip and said, "Who was worried just now?"

The Holy Ancestor blushed.

"Hasn't this old man been slapped in the face?"

After saying that, he happily added, "Since you helped me improve this Divine Dao Integration Technique, I will rename it."

Ning Qi smiled and asked, "What name do you want to change it to?"

"How about we call it the Three Saints' Inscription on the Immortal Scripture?"

Ning Qi and Hai Zu smiled upon hearing this.

"While we don't mind being called saints, isn't that a bit of an exaggeration?"

The Holy Ancestor shook his head and said, "No, with this method alone, I believe that the three of us will one day become saints!"

"You're quite optimistic."

The Holy Ancestor gazed at the divine runes in the void, then rubbed his hands together excitedly and said:

"Why don't I try practicing this Cultivation Method first and see just how amazing it really is?"

However, Hai Zu, standing to the side, reached out her delicate hand and intercepted the Holy Ancestor.

Both Ning Qi were taken aback.

Hai Zu smoothed her hair and said, "Having just perfected this Immortal Method, I don't believe your inspiration hasn't been sparked. Why don't you two help me refine my Cultivation Method again before the inspiration fades?"

The Holy Ancestor did indeed feel his inspiration gushing forth like a spring, but he still said, "Don't you already have that Taiyin Heavenly Immortal Scripture? Do you still want to improve it?"

Hai Zu's icy eyes gleamed.

"Haven't you noticed that through this joint creation of the Cultivation Method, our sensitivity to the Great Dao has become much more acute? I feel that what we've gained today is more than I've gained in my entire life. Why not strike while the iron is hot?"

Ning Qi also said, "We have all benefited greatly from this exchange, so why don't we just go all the way?"

Although he initiated the improvement of the Cultivation Method and played a significant role in it, Ning Qi did not feel that he was making a one-sided contribution.

Putting aside the Holy Ancestor and the Sea Ancestor, Ning Qi had already regarded them as his own people.

Having just perfected his immortal cultivation Cultivation Method, Ning Qi had already gained some new inspiration for his own realm lord cultivation system.

If he could perfect another Cultivation Method, he would surely be able to obtain even more nourishment.

"I will endure the pain of not being able to immediately attempt the Three Saints' Inscriptions on the Immortal Script..."

The Holy Ancestor feigned a pained expression, which immediately amused the two of them.

So the three of them then engaged in another battle, using the void as a platform and their own Dao to clash, in order to perfect their Cultivation Method.

After an unknown amount of time, the three gazed at the void ahead, which appeared hazy and shifting like the moon reflected in water.

Unlike the Holy Ancestor's Cultivation Method, the Sea Ancestor's Cultivation Method leans towards extreme yin and gentleness, and he also follows the path of extreme yin and gentleness.

This happened to be similar to a part of Ning Qi's Yin-Yang Dao diagram, so Ning Qi naturally spent a lot of effort to help Hai Zu improve it.

The entire Cultivation Method was merely inscribed in the void, yet it seemed as if a vast, supremely yin and gentle net was spreading out, captivating those within it while simultaneously making it impossible to escape.

Besides sensing the obvious yin and softness, the three also sensed other great principles within it.

The highest virtue is like water, the mother of all things, and the gentle can overcome the strong, etc...

The Holy Ancestor savored the taste. "Why do I feel that this Cultivation Method is stronger than mine?"

Hai Zu chuckled and said, "That's a misconception. Although our paths are different, we have both done our best to perfect our Cultivation Method."

Perhaps feeling that this was to comfort the Holy Ancestor, Hai Zu added:

"After all, this Cultivation Method corresponds to the Yin-Yang Dao Diagram of the Realm Lord, and it also has the Taiyin Heavenly Immortal Scripture as its foundation. Your Three Saints Inscription Dao Immortal Text doesn't have many similar immortal scriptures to refer to, but as long as you continue to improve it, I believe you will reach a certain level sooner or later."

Upon hearing this, the Holy Ancestor seemed to feel somewhat better.

"Are you planning to rename this Cultivation Method?" the Holy Ancestor asked curiously.

Hai Zu narrowed his eyes, scanning their faces.

"Naturally, let's call it the Water Moon Immortal Inquiry Classic."

The three of them laughed again.

The Holy Ancestor continued, "Now that all the Cultivation Method are perfected, I will go and try out the new Cultivation Method."

Hai Zu nodded, his eyes conveying the same meaning.

After perfecting two immortal cultivation Cultivation Method, the two finally felt that their inspiration was starting to wane.

It's not that the Enlightenment Tree can't provide them with more inspiration, but rather that people always have limits, and things tend to go to extremes; too much inspiration is not a good thing either.

The two immediately cupped their hands and bowed slightly to Ning Qi, saying, "Lord Realm Master, we are deeply grateful for your grace once again!"

Ning Qi gently brushed the two of them aside.

"We are friends, and we are here to jointly pursue the path of immortality. How can you be so formal?"

Compared to what the other two gained, Ning Qi felt that he gained more.

He already had a clear idea for further developing the subsequent cultivation system for realm lords.

"Since the Realm Lord has said so, then we will not stand on ceremony any longer."

Both of them, filled with joy, found a spot in the Enlightenment Square, sat down cross-legged, and began to cultivate new Cultivation Method.

"Remember to test the sect's level again later. I want to know if the changed Cultivation Method will cause changes in the sect?"

Ning Qi's voice reached their hearts.

"Don't worry, we're interested in that too."

Ning Qi stood in the square, and suddenly raised his hand to look at the sky.

The branches of the tree in the Enlightenment Realm seemed to have completed their mission and were about to disappear from this place.

However, Ning Qi, with his sharp eyes, finally noticed the difference on the boundary tree.

"Huh, what's this...?"

He suddenly beckoned, and the branches of the Jie tree, as if currying favor, drooped directly in front of him.

The leaves rustled and moved as if they were cheering and jumping for joy.

Ning Qi brushed his hand across the branches, finally stopping at two thinner branches.

These tiny branches have only a few leaves on them.

Ning Qi looked down at the two thin branches; their leaves were noticeably different from the other leaves on the boundary tree.

On the leaves of one small branch, divine runes flowed; on another small branch, the leaves were like water and the moon...

Especially the leaf at the very tip of the two branches, which stands out prominently, as if it has completely transformed into a leaf of the Great Dao!

How could the boundary tree have undergone such a transformation?

Ning Qi gazed at the leaves that had changed in different ways, a thoughtful expression on his face.

"The Boundary Tree can help people attain enlightenment; I had only focused on this point in the past, but I never imagined that people could also influence the Boundary Tree..."

"However, it seems to only react to immortal Cultivation Method, that is, Cultivation Method involving the Great Dao?"

Ning Qi wasn't quite sure if that was the case.

However, as he stroked the leaves that had changed, Ning Qi had a vague feeling that the leaves were nurturing something.

"It should be considered a good thing. I haven't seen any impact on me yet. I should focus on perfecting my own Realm Lord cultivation system first."

Ning Qi released the branches of the boundary tree, and the boundary tree instantly disappeared into the void.

He left a clone here, while his main body returned to the inner world.

It would take some time for the Holy Ancestor and the Sea Ancestor to fully adapt to and perfect the immortal cultivation Cultivation Method. Ning Qi felt that with what he had gained so far, he could continue to deduce the cultivation system of the Realm Lord.

In the inner world.

Ning Qi closed his eyes, sat cross-legged in the void, neither sad nor happy.

He did not immediately immerse himself in deducing the realm master system, but instead adjusted his mind and body, trying to empty his mind of everything.

Spirit, thoughts, distractions, emotions...

Everything vanished into nothingness.

After a long while, Ning Qi finally opened his eyes again.

"The Realm Lord cultivation system, since its inception, has consisted of two realms."

"First Realm, Realm Lord Realm."

"The main goal of a Realm Lord is to merge with the smaller world and become the master of that realm."

"Compared to traditional cultivation realms, the Realm Lord realm spans two realms: the Primordial Spirit realm and the Void Dao realm. However, the Realm Lord realm is stronger. Once one enters the Realm Lord realm, it is equivalent to being invincible in the Primordial Spirit realm, and when the Realm Lord realm is cultivated to Perfection, it is equivalent to being invincible in the Void Dao realm."

Ning Qi murmured to himself, reviewing each realm of the Realm Lord cultivation system he had created.

"The second realm of the Realm Lord's cultivation system is the Rule Realm."

"The Rule Realm corresponds to the two realms of Integration and Dao Integration in ordinary cultivation."

"At the initial stage of the Rule Realm, one touches upon the Origin rules, giving birth to a single rule Origin, which signifies entering the Rule Realm for the first time, corresponding to invincibility in the Integration Realm; accommodating a hundred rules constitutes a rule cycle, signifying the Major Completion the Rule Realm, making one invincible in the Dao Integration Realm; further accommodating even more rules allows one to contend with cultivators nearing immortality."

Ning Qi's eyes flashed with a sharp light as he couldn't help but recall his battle with the Mountain Ancestor.

"However, even a Realm Lord at the Rule Realm cannot defeat an Immortal, because an Immortal has transcended the constraints of the world and transformed the power of rules within their body into the most perfect Immortal Power."

Ning Qi then recalled all the related information he had previously obtained, as well as the two improved immortal cultivation Cultivation Method.

"Let's call the third realm of the Realm Lord's cultivation system the Transcendence Realm, or the Great Dao Realm!"

"Rules are inherent in the world, and are the origin of its existence, but the Great Way is something the world cannot possess."

"My prototype of the Great Dao Rune Array can also be seen as a small world, except that it is a world entirely composed of rune arrays."

"If it were to completely transform into the fruit of the Great Dao, then the world would be utterly incapable of confronting it!"

Through traditional immortal Cultivation Method and this nascent form of the Great Dao, Ning Qi vaguely grasped the next step in the cultivation system of the Realm Lord.

He sat cross-legged in the void, and suddenly his whole being seemed to have changed from being confused to having direction.

"The direction is clear, but completely breaking through the Rule Realm and entering the Transcendent Realm cannot be achieved in a short time. My reference points are not yet sufficient."

"Furthermore, I need to transform the rules I possess into Immortal Power, but currently, the Immortal Power within my body is intertwined with Boundless Evil Qi, making it impossible to convert into the pure Immortal Power of the traditional kind..."

"It seems we must continue exploring. We must create a new path to immortality that can accommodate both Immortal Power and Boundless Evil Qi, or rather, the energy of the Boundary Sea."

Having witnessed everything that had happened, Ning Qi realized that the immortals seemed to be particularly averse to the energy of the Boundary Sea.

The even more powerful, Boundless Evil Qi was like seeing the one who killed one's father.

Ning Qi was puzzled as to why this was happening.

But he possesses two powers, yet he can perfectly integrate them. He is destined not to follow the traditional path, but to forge a different one.

"The true path to immortality may not be black and white, just as the world is not only filled with light, but also with darkness. Choosing one path leads to immortality, while choosing the other leads to demonhood..."

Are they really completely opposite? I don't think so!

Even someone like Ancestor Lianshan, who was willing to sacrifice all living beings in both realms, could become an immortal. Ning Qi felt that Shanzu was more like a demon.
