Chapter 183 The World is Shocked

What happened in Zhenxuan Mountain spread to the thirteen states of the world at an alarming speed.

For a while.

The situation has changed dramatically and countless people are discussing this matter.

"The return of the ancient sage? How is that possible? This is sheer nonsense! If I remember correctly, True Xuan Zhenjun was a figure at least ten thousand years ago, or even longer. You're saying now that he's alive in the modern world?"

"There are also the Treasure Tree Buddha and the Barbarian King. I searched through all the ancient books and finally found records about these two. They were also figures from ten thousand years ago. The Barbarian King even lived in an even older era!"

"Isn't this fake news deliberately released by the True Mystic Sect to boost its power?"

Just beginning.

Everyone's first reaction was disbelief.

This news is really outrageous.

A person who lived ten thousand years ago is still alive today. Even if he is a Martial Saint, it is impossible for him to have such a long lifespan. Moreover, in most people's minds, the destination of a Martial Saint is to ascend to heaven. How could he continue to stay in the human world?

But as time goes by.

More and more details came out, and many masters of the Heavenly Man Realm who had participated in the Heavenly Man Ceremony of the Zhenxuan Sect stood up, and there were even some strong people on the Heavenly Man List among them. This made everyone believe that the Zhenxuan Sect did not have such great energy to allow so many strong people to come together to create a shocking situation.

This caused an uproar throughout the world.

Many people instinctively felt that something big was about to happen.

"Have the ancient saints really returned? Perhaps this is just the first batch?" The vaguely leaked news made people feel uneasy.

Some people went to Zhenxuan Mountain in person to verify and wanted to meet the True Lord, but True Lord Baiye just calmly replied that the True Lord had already gone down the mountain.

But the more this happens, the more anxious it becomes.

Some people went to Dajue Temple again.

But how could the Dajue Temple and Baoshu Buddha, who had lost face, pay any attention to these people? They drove them out with dark faces, and even several fights broke out.

Some careful warriors discovered that the Buddhist forces led by Dajue Temple were indeed migrating towards the north.

This immediately confirmed the rumors.

"It's true! Buddhism has joined the Barbarian King, and the power in the world is about to be reshuffled!" Some martial arts sects began to get nervous. Although they are now among the top in the world and have occupied many resources, they have no martial arts ancestor to trace the source.

If the ancient saints really came back now, I am afraid they would make them spit out the fat in their mouths.

Therefore, they are most concerned about the authenticity of this news.

How much they hoped that the news was false, but after checking, they bitterly discovered that it was not false at all.

"True Master Zhenxuan! Buddha of the Treasure Tree! Barbarian Emperor! Old Man Tingfeng! And the unknown ancient saint who controls the white dragon! There are already five of them, and I don't know how many more there will be in the future. The world is really going to change drastically."

Countless people were amazed.

There are rumors that a great opportunity is about to appear in heaven and earth, so the ancient saints have survived to the present world through various means in order to compete for this opportunity.

No one knows where this news came from in the first place, but more and more people have begun to believe it.

Otherwise, the ancient saints would never have been idle enough to travel through thousands of years to the present.

The whole world was in an uproar.

Until another big thing happened.

The Barbarian King appeared on the battlefield between the Northern Barbarians and the Great Yan, and overwhelmed millions of troops with one blow.

That day.

The Barbarian Emperor was extremely ferocious and made a cruel statement:

"Let the Great Yanwu Saint come to see me and explain why you drove my barbarian people to the grassland!"

Under the might of the Barbarian Emperor, even the top masters on the Heavenly Man List did not have the slightest resistance. The soldiers of Dayan were all in a panic. The feeling of having their life and death in the hands of others was not very good. All eyes were looking towards the Dayan Imperial Court.

Everyone is looking forward to the appearance of the Great Flame Martial Saint.

But only a very few people who knew the truth felt a sinking feeling in their hearts.

Time passes slowly.

The Great Yanwu Saint had not yet appeared, causing many forces in the world to become restless.

The undercurrent is quietly surging.

The already unclear situation suddenly became more complicated.

…

At this moment, the Zhenwu Sect finally returned to Zhenwu Mountain.

Luo Wentian had already been waiting for him at the mountain gate.

Taoist Longshan's letter had been sent back in advance, and what was happening in the world also made him aware of the upcoming changes.

As the leader of a sect, Luo Wentian naturally has to be concerned about what will happen to the Zhenwu Sect in this matter.

Inside Mingwu Pavilion.

Luo Wentian and all his disciples were present. He couldn't wait to ask:

"Master, is what happened on Zhenxuan Mountain really as the rumors say?"

Everyone stared with shock in their eyes. Even though they had seen the letter, they still found it hard to believe.

Taoist Longshan nodded slowly:

"Indeed. Something big is going to happen next. You must not slack off and must remain unchanged in the face of all changes!"

Everyone was awe-inspiring.

"What's the big deal?"

Ning Qi said slowly:

"Ancient Saints will be born one after another. This is just the beginning. One year later, the spirit will revive and many strange phenomena will appear between heaven and earth. At that time, the Ancient Saints will soar into the sky and return to the peak."

Taoist Master Baishan did not instruct Ning Qi not to let anyone know about this news, so Ning Qi certainly would not hide it from his master and fellow apprentices.

Everyone was shocked, silently pondering the words "inspiration revived".

"Xiao Jiu, are you saying that the ancient saints who are so powerful now are not their peak?" Ye Qinghe asked.

Ning Qi nodded:

"Far from it. As far as I know, the ancient saints who have survived to this day are not easy to deal with. The revival of spiritual power in a year will be a great opportunity. You must work hard to improve your cultivation. It would be best if you can reach the heavenly realm. This way you can get greater rewards."

Hearing this, everyone smiled bitterly.

The realm of heaven and man?

With the help of Ning Qi's many secret techniques and treasures, their cultivation speed has been extremely fast, but no matter how fast they are, it is unlikely that they can reach the realm of heaven and man within a year.

Ning Qi pondered secretly in his heart, thinking about whether there was any way to let his fellow disciples benefit from the revival of spiritual energy this time. If it is not possible, at least they should quickly step into the realm of heaven and man after the revival of spiritual energy, or even become stronger.

Everyone held their breath as they listened to the many secrets Ning Qi told them.

This is much more detailed than the rumors outside.

Of course they were curious about how Ning Qi knew this, but since Ning Qi didn't tell them, they didn't ask.

"Xiao Jiu, I believe you all know about the matter of the Barbarian Emperor and the Great Flame Martial Saint, right?" Luo Wentian said.

Ning Qi nodded slowly.

He had only found out about this a few days ago. He hadn't expected that the Barbarian King would be so troublesome. He started making trouble again right after coming down from Zhenxuan Mountain. He guessed that this might be related to the appearance of Old Man Tingfeng at the end.

For some reason, Old Man Tingfeng was obviously opposed to the ancient saints fighting each other. Even if there was a fight, it would probably have to be controlled within a certain degree.

This gave the Barbarian King the opportunity to attack the Great Flame Martial Saint.

"However, the most crucial thing may be that the Barbarian Emperor heard that there was something wrong with the Great Flame Martial Saint's condition. Otherwise, according to what Taoist Baishan told me, the Great Flame Martial Saint and Old Man Tingfeng are also powerful beings who have survived to this day through the bloodline method. I'm afraid they are not comparable to the current Barbarian Emperor."

Ning Qi pondered in his heart.

He used to be wary of the Great Flame Martial Saint, and it was only in recent days that he heard the news that the Great Flame Martial Saint was in a very bad condition. Combined with the fact that the Great Flame Martial Saint had been silent during the previous riots in the southern border of the Demon Sect, as well as some small details, Ning Qi felt that this news might be true.

With this thought in mind, he slowly said:

"Let's wait and see. The battle between the Barbarian Emperor and the Great Yan Martial Saint is essentially a battle between the Great Yan and the Northern Territory Barbarians. When the spirit is revived, there will be opportunities between heaven and earth. Perhaps the Barbarian Emperor wants to take this opportunity to expand the Northern Barbarians' territory."

The core benefit is still due to the subsequent revival of inspiration. Although it is just Ning Qi's guess, he feels it is almost correct.

Luo Wentian frowned slightly and asked a question:

"If this is the case, I'm afraid that it won't just be Great Yan and Northern Barbarians that will have disputes. When many ancient saints are born, they will definitely redivide their 'spheres of influence'!"

Ning Qi nodded:

"After that, the whole world will inevitably be torn apart, and the grand scene of the Thirteen States of Great Yan will probably become a swan song."

The Taoist master Baishan also mentioned this to him.

In their era, there has never been such a big dynasty. Even if there was, it was on par with the top sects, and to some extent was equivalent to an alternative sect. After the ancient saints are revived, they will certainly not be satisfied with the status quo. Even if the Great Yan Wu Saint is in his peak state, he will definitely compromise in the face of so many ancient saints, not to mention that he does not seem to be at his peak now.

Everyone was silent, feeling a great deal of pressure.

"I just hope it won't affect our Zhenwu sect." Luo Wentian was quite worried.

This kind of thinking makes sense.

If an ancient saint claimed the land where Zhenwu Mountain is located as his own, disputes would probably be inevitable.

Ning Qi smiled and said:

"There is no need to think so much. Right now, the only thing we can do is to prepare for the revival of our spiritual power and work hard to improve our cultivation."

He has a certain confidence.

The Taoist priest Bai Shan is on good terms with him, which is a help. Besides, not every ancient saint is so powerful. Ning Qi himself has confidence that perhaps after his spiritual energy is revived, some ancient saints will be even weaker than him.

Everyone nodded vigorously.

Things in the world will change, but if everyone works together, they will surely be able to gain a firm foothold in the coming great era. It is impossible to say that they are not excited. Such a great era means that there will be many opportunities as well.

Taoist Longshan just stroked his beard with satisfaction and basically did not interrupt.

As a master, he feels extremely happy when his disciples grow up and are able to take on important tasks.

…

The back mountain of Zhenwu.

Ning Qi walked over slowly.

He did not hold back his aura, and the sword demon, sensing something, immediately appeared:

"Fellow Daoist Tianjian, have you already made any progress?"

He was delighted and asked the question without hesitation, but he was stunned on the spot immediately, because the person who appeared there was not the familiar Tianjian Zhenren, but a handsome and elegant young Taoist. However, his aura was no different from that of Tianjian Zhenren.

"Fellow Daoist Tianjian?" Dao Mo looked somewhat surprised and suspicious.

Ning Qi bowed slightly:

"Before this, I was unable to meet you in my true form due to various reasons. I hope that Dao Mo Daoyou will forgive me. My real name is Ning Qi, and I am the ninth disciple of Long Shan Zhenren."

He looked slightly apologetic.

But the Sword Demon's face was somewhat numb. After getting the accurate answer, he understood very well that the young Taoist in front of him was the Tianjian Zhenren whom he admired very much!

He had always thought that Master Tianjian, like him, was about to die. However, he had not expected that the real Master Tianjian was actually a young man as bright as the rising sun.

Sensing the undisguised aura and vitality from Ning Qi.

There were boundless waves in his heart, which eventually turned into a bitter smile:

"Fellow Daoist Tianjian, you have made me suffer so much."

Ning Qi is now even more terrifying than before.

It is unbelievable that a young man could have achieved such an accomplishment. It has never been heard of in history. If he had not seen it with his own eyes, the Sword Demon would never have believed that there was such an enchanting person in the world.

Vaguely.

The figure who had completely mastered the power of his magic sword in the blink of an eye began to completely overlap with the young Taoist in front of him.

There was only amazement in the Sword Demon's eyes.

And then there was joy.

The more powerful Ning Qi is, the greater the possibility that he can deduce the method of the Martial Saint.

However, he also understood that Ning Qi's sudden reveal of his true identity today might be due to something extraordinary.

"Fellow Daoist Tianjian, if anything happens and you need my help, just tell me." He was serious. He had promised Ning Qi to guard Zhenwu Mountain for ten years, so he would not break his promise.

Ning Qi waved his hand and said with a smile:

"It is indeed a big deal, but you don't need to take action. I will tell you the whole story, and you can consider it later."

The sword demon was shocked.

Ning Qi has already spoken slowly.

He told him everything he had seen and heard this time down the mountain. He also said that he wanted to deduce the method of the Martial Saint and needed the cooperation of the Sword Demon to conduct the experiment. Of course, Ning Qi did not hide the changes in the power of heaven and earth, and told him about the possible dangers.

A gentleman treats me with sincerity, and I should treat him with sincerity.

As the Sword Demon listened, the light in his eyes shone brighter and brighter, and at the end he laughed loudly, full of heroism.

"The ancient saint has returned, and the spirit has revived! I, the Sword Demon, am so lucky to be able to catch up with such a great era! It's so refreshing! It's so refreshing!"

His hair and beard were flying, and he was obviously excited from the bottom of his heart.

then.

He said to Ning Qi solemnly:

"Fellow Daoist Tianjian, just tell me how you need my cooperation!"

Ning Qi said seriously:

"Have you really thought it through? Even if you don't want to, I will give you a copy of the Martial Saint's Method when I deduce it in the future. And when the spiritual power is fully revived in the future, it is possible that the ancient saints will also release the Martial Saint's Method."

This is not to deceive the Sword Demon, but what Ning Qi learned from the words of Taoist Baishan. When the time is right, I am afraid that all the Martial Saint Techniques will reappear in the world.

The Sword Demon laughed and shook his head:

"If that happens, we won't be able to catch up with the great opportunity of spiritual revival!"

There was a light in his eyes.

"If I can't take advantage of this opportunity to soar to the sky, how can I have a place in this great era in the future, and how can I compete with the ancient saints!"

"Besides, Fellow Daoist Tianjian, you also said that the changes between heaven and earth have not been solved even by the ancient saints. If I can help you solve it, it will be a great achievement. To some extent, it can be regarded as surpassing the ancient saints! Perhaps only such a martial saint's method is the strongest!"

The Sword Demon's eyes were full of trust. After knowing that Ning Qi was just a teenager, he trusted Ning Qi even more. He wanted to witness the birth of this unprecedented great achievement with his own eyes. It was a blessing for him to be able to participate in it.

The sword demon has always been full of madness.

He knew that if Ning Qi wanted to kill him, there was no need for such a method. If he had not saved him at the beginning, he would have exploded and died.

Feeling that trust, Ning Qi smiled.

"Okay! Let's work together to find out the root cause of this strange change in the world!"

He already has an idea.

Now that the Sword Demon nodded, his confidence increased even more.

"According to Taoist Bai Shan, the power of heaven and earth lacks inspiration, and it is impossible to reach the realm of Martial Saint. But I don't need the Sword Demon to reach the realm of Martial Saint now. I just want to study the consequences of absorbing the power of heaven and earth. A little inspiration will naturally be enough."

"Where did this inspiration come from? Of course it's the Yu Wang Pearl!"

"I can extract the spiritual energy from it and merge it with the power of heaven and earth. It will naturally become complete spiritual energy. Even if it is not enough to give birth to a martial saint, it can at least be used for deduction without any problem!"

Ning Qi already had a plan in his mind.

Before he had a long chat with Taoist Baishan, he had no idea what inspiration was, nor did he have any concept of it. But after careful contemplation, he roughly knew what it was. Previously, he had sensed the special nature of the Yu Wangzhu when it was gathering spiritual power.

Then on the way back.

After many attempts, he finally had the ability to temporarily pull a part of it out of the Yu Wang Pearl.

That’s not all.

Ning Qi even integrated his inspiration with the existing power of heaven and earth, obtained the best ratio during the experiment, and successfully obtained his own integrated spiritual energy.

Think of this.

Ning Qi couldn't help but smile.

There are probably very few people in the world who can do what he does. Even most of the ancient saints cannot do it. This requires a strong understanding of spiritual energy and spiritual power, which at least Baoshu Buddha cannot do.

"Fellow Daoist, hold your breath and concentrate!" Ning Qi warned.

The two of them sat cross-legged on the stone platform at the back of the mountain.

The Sword Demon closed his eyes and his mind was empty. Then he heard Ning Qi's voice. The voice contained profound content, including the secret of the three flowers of heaven, earth and man. Based on this, it continued to radiate, and with the three flowers gathering at the top of the head, it produced many changes.

The Sword Demon listened and was convinced.

This is a supreme secret technique that absorbs the power of heaven and earth. He can clearly see that this secret technique has the shadow of the experience he mentioned before, but it is completely different. The more profound content in it is so profound that he probably won't be able to figure it out even if he thinks about it for another thousand years.

He realized how big the gap was between him and Ning Qi.

This was naturally the method Ning Qi had figured out by learning from the Yu Wangzhu's method of gathering spiritual power.

Time passes.

The moonlight poured down and sprinkled on the two of them.

The Sword Demon spoke in a deep voice:

"Fellow Daoist, I have already understood this method. Please start!"

It would be impossible to say that he was not nervous at all, but he was still very calm. He had been alone all his life, without any worries. His only wish was to see martial arts reach higher peaks. Now he had the honor to participate in it, and he just felt happy.

Ning Qi nodded.

He was also highly focused.

The Sword Demon trusts him, so he has to be responsible for the Sword Demon's safety.

“It’s better to go slow than to be too aggressive.”

Ning Qi's mind moved.

Yu Wangzhu suddenly floated in front of the two of them.
