What is all this nonsense? Are cultivators these days all so wild? They've only known each other for a short time, and this guy doesn't even know his own name, yet he's recommending his sister to him. It's really... um!
A discerning eye!
Exceptional eyesight!
"You're too kind, fellow Daoist!"
Although Feng Bingwen was pleased, he showed no sign of it on his face; he was a respectable man.
What is your opinion, fellow Daoist?
Undeterred by the lack of a clear answer, the young man, who had already interrupted his practice, pressed on with the question.
"I appreciate your kind intentions, but I have no intention of seeking a Daoist partner at the moment. Besides, you don't even know my name, and I don't know you, let alone your sister. It's too early to talk about this."
Feng Bingwen politely declined.
"I apologize for my abruptness."
Upon hearing Feng Bingwen's explanation, the young man realized that he had omitted too many steps and appeared too hasty.
"It's nothing!"
Since this fellow Daoist didn't mind him interfering with the practice of his divine abilities, Feng Bingwen's tone was naturally quite gentle.
"I am Ji Changqing from the Wanling Sect. May I ask your name, fellow Daoist?"
"My name is Feng Bingwen. As for sect, strictly speaking, I am a rogue cultivator!"
Feng Bingwen responded.
"A rogue cultivator?"
Ji Changqing was somewhat bewildered.
"Then how did you get in?"
The Nine Heavens and Ten Earths are not some secret realm that suddenly opened. Those who can enter this place all have backgrounds. How could ordinary rogue cultivators possibly enter?
"The qualification was bought for me by the Netherworld Path."
"The Path of the Netherworld?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Changqing realized that the quota for the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths was fixed and had been determined on the day this secret realm was integrated and formed.
Although there are no explicit rules, the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths are open to vassal races that are dependent on humans, so there is an unwritten rule.
Those who cultivate to the third rank or below, and those who practice martial arts but have not tempered their bodies with one of the Seventy-Two Earthly Fiends, are not qualified to enter this place, lest they disgrace the human race.
For major sects, they have an abundance of new blood and no need to worry about generational gaps, so their quotas are generally used effectively each time, and sometimes there are even not enough.
At this time, because some geniuses are too outstanding, major sects often purchase qualifications from smaller sects that are qualified but whose juniors are not good enough.
However, cases like Feng Bingwen's are extremely rare. He was not born into the Netherworld Path, yet the Netherworld Path purchased qualifications for him in advance.
Judging from his tone, he hadn't even joined the Netherworld Path yet, which was enough to make the Netherworld Path invest so much. However, this wasn't unbelievable, considering he had the Innate Five Elements Dao Body, a physique that had only appeared once in ancient times.
"What a pity."
Ji Changqing sighed inwardly. If it were any other sect, it would be fine. The Myriad Spirits Sect was one of the top sects in the Nine Provinces of the Human Race. However, compared with the Netherworld Sect, which was one of the twelve immortal sects of the Human Race, it was slightly inferior.
Since this fellow Daoist has already been targeted by the Netherworld Path, their Myriad Spirits Sect has no chance of competing with him. The elders of the sect will not clash with the Netherworld Path because of him alone.
Fortunately, there was a way to make up for it. In the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, it was Ji Changqing who first encountered this person with the Innate Five Elements Dao Body. It was a pity that the other party was a man, not a female cultivator as rumored in ancient times.
But it doesn't matter, he also has a clever and lovely younger sister with outstanding talent. Even though he has an innate Five Elements Dao Body, his sister's talent and aptitude are enough to match him.
Unfortunately, his sister was still too young. Although her talent surpassed his, her cultivation level was insufficient, so she did not get the chance to enter the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths this time and could only wait for the next ten years.
Therefore, whether his sister can find a good match depends entirely on the performance of her older brother. He cannot afford to miss out on this brother-in-law, otherwise his sister may regret it for the rest of her life.
"Fellow Daoist..."
"Let's focus on our cultivation. Time is running out. If Fellow Daoist Changqing has other plans, let's wait until we leave the initial place before discussing anything else!"
Feng Bingwen interrupted the guy who wanted to become his brother-in-law.
"Fellow Daoist Feng is right."
Ji Changqing was speechless, knowing that this matter could not be rushed.
However, we cannot let our guard down. Now that we have encountered this person with the innate Five Elements Dao Body, we cannot leave under his nose. After entering the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, we must stay close to him.
While this prodigy of the Myriad Spirits Sect was going through a thousand thoughts, Feng Bingwen's mind had returned to a state of clarity and tranquility. He devoted himself to comprehending the "Heaven and Earth One Qi Zhenyuan Golden Chapter," and his understanding directly affected the state of the earth spirits outside Amber Mountain.
Not only the Earth Spirit, but also the fundamental scripture that Feng Bingwen cultivated began to evolve further after receiving the inheritance of two complete scriptures. Hundreds of innate Dao characters appeared in his mind, shining with divine light, hazy and indistinct.
A vast and distant aura, seemingly inherited from the beginning of time, lingered around Feng Bingwen, making his temperament ethereal and lofty, and plunging him into a state close to enlightenment.
In this state, Feng Bingwen comprehended the fundamental meaning of this Earth Element inheritance. By comparing the two inheritances, "The Undying Body" and "The Mysterious Netherworld Scripture," he discovered the reason why this inheritance was so complicated.
The path of immortality is evolving, its traditions are changing, and its techniques are not static. The "Heaven and Earth One Qi Zhenyuan Golden Chapter" is one of the results of the development and changes in the path of immortality.
The cultivation chapter of the Undying Body clearly shows the shadow of the Martial Immortal Body, but it is only partially referenced, because the powerful Heaven and Earth Dharma Body cultivated by the "Transcendent Undying Body" is not a body refining method.
However, there are no similar cultivation chapters in the "Xuanming True Scripture". This true scripture follows the principle of simplicity in the great way, which is why it has been passed down for tens of thousands of years.
At this moment, Ji Changqing, who was in the center of Amber Mountain, also noticed Feng Bingwen's condition, but he didn't care. This was the proper manifestation of the innate Dao body that he had read about in ancient books, and it was also worthy of his sister.
Leaving aside this self-important genius of the Myriad Spirits Sect, outside Amber Mountain, as Feng Bingwen comprehended the Earth Element inheritance, the Earth Spirit, which was originally just a few stones piled up, underwent a complete transformation.
As Feng Bingwen comprehended the teachings, Shi Ling's body continued to expand and grow. His body was replaced by shimmering amber-colored rocks and numerous metal particles drawn from the ground. The powerful earth vein energy condensed and crystallized, forming its energy core. Layer upon layer of array runes transformed into the earth spirit's "meridians."
When all these changes ceased, the Earth Spirit had transformed into a towering giant ten feet tall. The aura it exuded remained largely unchanged from beginning to end, still in the Transcendent Realm, only much more solid than before.
At that very moment, Feng Bingwen broke free from his state of enlightenment. His aura was much more solid than before, and the surging immortal spiritual energy within his body, like a tidal wave, was also much heavier than before.
When he emerged from Amber Mountain, he saw an invisible yet perceptible force rising into the sky beneath the vast heavens, which then transformed into a pillar of light and began to spread in all directions.
ah! ! !
That invisible and intangible power, like a curtain covering the sky, swept across a palace radiating tri-colored divine light. Suddenly, a disheveled youth was seen soaring into the sky, letting out a roar filled with resentment. But before he could do anything, the light engulfed him, and then his figure vanished from the spot.
"Time is up!"
Seeing this, Feng Bingwen immediately understood that there was no danger in the initial place, and all opportunities could be used at will, but there was a time limit. When the time was up, all opportunities would be sent away regardless of their state.
The young man who just roared probably hadn't finished practicing his technique, otherwise he wouldn't have been so furious.
However, Feng Bingwen then saw more and more extraordinary young men and women being directly sent away by that invisible and intangible void power.
A small number of people were quite furious, but the vast majority remained calm or even smiling, clearly having gained a lot and received the opportunities that had been arranged for them.
There is no problem in staying in the initial place for only one month. The opportunities here are arranged directly according to the cultivation method and physique. Even the resources needed for cultivation are prepared.
Point Guard Here
Those who seek enlightenment through opportunity are all top talents from various sects, possessing the most outstanding abilities. They have more than enough time, so if they failed to complete the training method, the reason must lie with themselves, and they cannot blame others.
Thinking this, Feng Bingwen saw the power, like a curtain hanging from the sky, spread in front of him. He did not resist at all, letting the power carry him away.
In that fleeting glance, he also saw that his four companion spirits had been swept away by that power and disappeared from their original spot; the water spirit should have suffered the same fate.
When everything before him reappeared, Feng Bingwen found himself in a mountain forest filled with primal, wild energy, with the four spirits by his side. Clearly, this teleportation was extremely human-like.
Not long after, a hazy light flickered not far from Feng Bingwen, and then a purplish-black dragon, its body shrouded in surging, icy mist, appeared before Feng Bingwen.
This is a real dragon nearly twenty feet in size, with a pair of rugged dragon horns that are full of purple light, like a crown. When it flies in the air, it leaves behind a dazzling rainbow of light as it flies through the air. Its dragon eyes are deep and dark, and cold to the bone.
On the winding dragon body, the purple scales, which looked as if they were cast from celestial gold, spread deep and dark mysterious water patterns, adding a touch of eeriness and weight to the originally majestic and awe-inspiring true dragon.
"Hehe, sir, look, am I handsome?"
After Shui Ling appeared, she proudly showed off her new form to Feng Bingwen.
Before Feng Bingwen could reply, another invisible wave appeared a hundred feet away from him.
