What is You Ji's cultivation level? The original work does not explicitly describe it, but Ling Yi can now confirm that it is the early stage of the Supreme Purity Realm.
He's only two minor realms below Tian Buyi, but he's definitely a master.
Even Biyao had no idea that You Ji was so powerful.
"Impressive cultivation!" Ling Yi exclaimed.
"Likewise!" You Ji's expression was extremely solemn. Her aura had reached its Pinnacle, but she still couldn't probe Ling Yi 'Ling Yi strength or discern his cultivation level.
This is quite terrifying; even the sect leader, Ghost King, doesn't possess such imposing power as Ling Yi.
A large square seal appeared in You Ji's hand. The seal was entirely crimson and carved with a lifelike Vermilion Bird.
This is the You Ji Vermilion Bird Seal, a natal magic weapon that You Ji rarely uses.
As Magic Power was injected, the Vermilion Bird on the Vermilion Bird Seal began to hover and roam, as if it were alive, and seemed ready to burst out of the seal at any moment.
"Shock!" You Ji shouted, taking the initiative to attack.
The Vermilion Bird Seal grew larger in the wind, and in an instant, it transformed into the size of a small mountain, which then slammed down towards Ling Yi.
Ling Yi looked up at the sky, his right hand forming a hand seal, and he whispered, " One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones."
Ling Yi's Ying Yi split into three: one holding a sword, one holding a seal, and one holding a banner.
The sword is the Zhu Xian Sword, the seal is the Heaven-Overturning Seal, and the banner is the Pangu Banner.
Ever since Ling Yi made some guesses about the origin of the Jade Dynasty World, all the Combat Skills he has created are related to the Three Pure Ones.
The Weapon Formula is the general outline of all skills.
Whether One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones, the Zhu Xian Sword, the Heaven-Overturning Seal, or the Pangu Banner, they all evolved from Weapon Art.
Due to the rules and restrictions of the Jade Dynasty World, the true One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones cannot be used.
Even so, it deeply shocked everyone present.
However, the Zhu Xian Sword in Ling Yi's hand is very different from the Zhu Xian Sword in the Jade Dynasty World. This is Ling Yi's Simulation the Zhu Xian Sword of the Tongtian, or rather, this is the real Zhu Xian Sword.
Three figures appeared. One of them held a sword and made a feinting slash at You Ji. A Sword Qi that seemed capable of Rend the heavens and earth, carrying terrifying sharpness, slashed towards You Ji.
This Sword Qi energy wasn't fast, but Aura grew stronger as it traveled.
Another figure raised the Heaven-Overturning Seal and collided directly with the Vermilion Bird Seal.
The last figure waved the Pangu Banner, and an overwhelming aura descended from the sky, directly suppressing You Ji on the spot, making her movements extremely slow.
With all three attacks combined, the Vermilion Bird Seal was the first to be knocked backward, You Ji spat out a mouthful of blood.
Immediately following, the Sword Qi arrived.
If she were struck, You Ji would likely die on the spot.
"Don't want!"
Biyao was shocked and rushed forward without thinking to block the attack for You Ji, but she was also suppressed by the overwhelming aura and her body was completely out of control.
But just as the Sword Qi was about to strike You Ji, it suddenly vanished.
Ling Yi's three figures merged into one, his aura instantly subsided, and he returned to his previous appearance.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and You Ji couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat from her forehead.
Although the fight lasted only a short moment, it made her feel the taste of death once again.
"What kind of tricks are you using?" You Ji forced herself to calm down and asked.
" Weapon Art!" Ling Yi explained.
Biyao's eyes lit up, and she instinctively asked, " The Weapon Art is that powerful?"
She felt something was amiss after saying that, but then she thought that with Ling Yi's cultivation level, her secret learning that day must have been discovered long ago.
"Did you already know about me that night?"
"Good!"
"Did you deliberately make me learn Weapon Formula?" Biyao asked again.
"Yeah, not too stupid!"
Why?
There's no reason why!
Zheng Hai blurted out, " Big Shot, you want to change..."
"Shut up!" Ling Yi immediately stopped this guy from giving away spoilers.
Zheng Hai chuckled sheepishly, knowing he'd made a fool of himself again; the Big Shot didn't want to give away any spoilers.
Lu Xueqi then realized the key point and said softly, "That day you deliberately made the Dao Rhyme float in the air, was it for her?"
Ling Yi nodded and said, "Yes!"
"Why?" Lu Xueqi asked the same question.
This... is hard to explain!
You Ji then looked at Biyao and asked, "Have you learned this Weapon Art?"
"Yes, I've learned it, but I'm not very proficient at using it."
As Biyao spoke, she immediately Weapon Formula, and instantly more than a dozen curved blades appeared out of thin air, swirling and dancing around her.
"Such a technique exists in the world? Doesn't this mean that all kinds of treasures can be obtained at will?" You Ji exclaimed in admiration.
With that, You Ji bowed Youyou to Ling Yi and said, "Thank you for your guidance."
Ling Yi shook his head, remained silent for a long while, and then asked, "Are there immortals in this world?"
Everyone was stunned. Immortals? They were just Legend beings, but only Legend.
"Holy crap, it seems there really are no immortals in the Jade Dynasty World, why?" Zheng Hai exclaimed in surprise.
Ling Yi ignored him and continued, "All the cultivation techniques in the Jade Dynasty World originate from the Heavenly Book."
" The Heavenly Book brought about the emergence of cultivators, the righteous path and the demonic path in this world, and the brilliant and glorious civilization of cultivation."
"But what about before the Heavenly Book?"
Biyao and Lu Xueqi didn't know what the Heavenly Book was, but they didn't ask any questions at the moment, and listened quietly.
You Ji fell into deep thought, and after a long while asked, "You mean, before the Heavenly Book, there were immortals in this world?"
Ling Yi nodded and said, "To be precise, before the Heavenly Book appeared, there was a path to immortality in this world, but after the Heavenly Book appeared, the path to immortality was severed."
"And there's a sentence in the general outline of the Heavenly Book!"
Heaven and earth are ruthless, treating all things like straw dogs!
"This statement contains the anger and helplessness of the creator of the Heavenly Book. Why is that?"
"Based on my speculation, before the appearance of the Heavenly Book, there must have existed a more magnificent and colorful civilization of cultivation. At that time, all cultivators had the hope of becoming immortals and could glimpse higher realms of cultivation."
"Instead of the current situation, where the highest cultivation level is only the Pinnacle of the Supreme Purity Realm."
Something must have happened. Perhaps it was a great battle between immortals and mortals, or even a great battle between immortals, which ultimately severed the path to immortality in this world, leaving no chance to ever see through it again.
"Heaven and earth are ruthless; what then is Heaven and earth? Perhaps it refers to the Immortal Realm or God Realm above the path to immortality, or perhaps it refers to those immortals and gods who despise all living beings."
"The person who created the Heavenly Book must have been filled with utter despair at the time," You Ji sighed.
After a pause, You Ji continued, "So, what are you trying to say? What are you trying to do?"
Ling Yi gazed at the sky and said calmly, "I want to break the Sealing, to continue the path of immortality, I want to... Zhu Xian!"
As Ling Yi finished speaking, it seemed as if the heavens and earth awoke from Ling Yi words, emitting a thunderous tremor!
At this moment, all the cultivators in the Jade Dynasty World felt the Pressure from heaven and earth, and heard the thunderous sound that seemed to resonate in their very souls.
"Look, even this realm is voicing its discontent. Heaven and earth are unkind, not because this realm is unkind, but because of the high and mighty beings beyond it."
Then, he looked at everyone and smiled, "However, I'm afraid I can't do it all by myself, so I hope more people can join in."
It wasn't that Ling Yi lacked the ability; rather, as an outsider and a transmigrator, he couldn't do this himself.
Just like in the movie version of the Heavenly Sword World, Ling Yi can enable Zhang Sanfeng to break through and drive the world's advancement, but he himself cannot.
"I admire your ambition, You Ji. If you need my help, I will do my utmost to assist you," You Ji You Ji earnestly, bowing again.
" Biyao needs to help too."
Lu Xueqi stood directly beside Ling Yi, expressing her stance, but her gaze towards Biyao held a hint of wariness.
Zheng Hai also raised his hand and said, " Big Shot, I definitely can't miss out on something this awesome."
Ling Yi thought to himself, "As the Protagonist of this world, you definitely have to get involved, but this guy just doesn't seem very reliable."
"It's a pity that the righteous and demonic paths are constantly at odds. If we could unite all the cultivators in the world to create this..." You Ji sighed.
Ling Yi shook his head and said, "Most of them are short-sighted. The so-called distinction between righteous and demonic is laughable. Where in the world are there righteous and demonic paths?"
"Junior brother, righteousness is righteousness, and evil is evil!" Lu Xueqi frowned.
"The so-called demons are merely those with different cultivation methods. The demonic path is nothing more than an excuse used by wicked people to justify their greed and ignorance."
Seeing Lu Xueqi's puzzled look, Ling Yi explained, "Most demonic arts are not much different from other cultivation methods; they all require absorbing the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi to strengthen themselves. However, some people have managed to comprehend evil cultivation methods from Heavenly Book."
"These people, under the guise of the Demonic Sect, have willingly fallen into depravity, harming living beings; they are the true demons."
Ling Yi then looked at Biyao and You Ji, "Take Biyao and You Ji for example, have they ever harmed a good person? No, the demonic path and demons are different."
"What is truly terrifying is the human heart, not the distinction between good and evil."
This was the first time Biyao and You Ji had heard anyone comment on the righteous and demonic realms in this way, and they were filled with admiration.
"If other cultivators heard you say that, you would probably become the target of their criticism. The distinction between good and evil is nothing more than a struggle for resources and the ambitions of people's hearts. It's just a pity that many people can't see through this," You Ji said.
"No matter what we want to do, absolute strength is essential!"
As Ling Yi spoke, he pointed a finger at You Ji, imprinting the inheritance of the Weapon Art into her memory.
"This is the Weapon Art. When your strength breaks through the limitations of this world, that will be the time for us to Zhu Xian."
" Big Shot, what about me?" Zheng Hai asked anxiously.
"You lack the aptitude for cultivation, so passing it on to you would be useless, and you already have your own path to follow."
"Why is this happening? Can't the Big Shot change my system?" Zheng Hai said disappointedly.
"This isn't a problem with the system; it's that you're not accepted by the world. As for why, you should understand it yourself."
"Why is it possible for that Big Shot?"
"Because this world dares not!"
Zheng Hai was stunned for a moment before finally saying, " Big Shot, you're awesome!"
