Chapter 217: The Source of Enlightenment, Meeting the Master of Zhenwu Palace
Listening to Ning Xuan's story, Ning Qi nodded slowly.
to be honest.
The power of the magic treasure is even greater than he expected. Whether it is the ability to turn the world into a mustard seed, travel through the sea of boundaries, or be of any size, they are all extremely powerful.
But Ning Qi still didn't feel much of a stir.
Because he knew that the Zhenwu Temple was in a dilapidated state today and many of its functions could not be used.
His main concern now is:
"What functions can the Zhenwu Palace still use now?"
Facing Ning Qi's question, the newly born young spirit seemed a little embarrassed, but still said respectfully:
"The main body of Zhenwu Hall is now in ruins, and the stored energy is almost exhausted. Many functions can only be used in incomplete versions, or cannot be used at all."
"During the battle that year, the world inside the Zhenwu Palace was almost completely destroyed. Although it has evolved again now, there is not a single elixir left. Only some spirit beast eggs have hatched. Given the current situation of the Zhenwu Palace, it is no problem to use it as a storage magic weapon. It can easily hold a fairy mountain of a million feet, but it is impossible to swallow up the world."
"As for the ability to shuttle through the boundary sea, it is completely unusable, because this not only requires the Zhenwu Palace to be able to withstand the pressure of the shuttle, but also has certain requirements for your cultivation level."
"Although the remaining three functions can be used, their power is greatly reduced."
Ning Qi nodded slightly.
This was within his expectations, but the fact that there were so many functions available was beyond his expectation.
However, he remembered the old spirit's instructions that he must not reveal the existence of the Zhenwu Palace unless it was absolutely necessary.
That being the case.
It is absolutely impossible to use sacrifices to meet the enemy.
That is to say, when in desperate situations, you can use the power of Zhenwu Palace to temporarily block the martial world, which can delay the situation for a while.
"Is there any way to repair the Zhenwu Temple?" Ning Qi asked.
Ning Xuan was shocked and listed all the treasures:
"Tianxuan Immortal Crystal, Five Elements Stone, Void Mysterious Spiritual Soil, Immortal Green Ivy..."
Ning Qi's scalp tingled when he heard the names one by one. He had never heard of any of them. They must be treasures in the spiritual world, and some of them might even be treasures that could only be born in the sea of realm.
"In addition to this, you also need to use the power of rules to make sacrifices."
After saying that.
Ning Xuan added:
"Only those who are strong in the Void Dao Realm can have initial contact with the power of rules."
Ning Qi waved his hands feeling a little tired.
There are four steps and eight realms in ascending to immortality, and the Void Dao Realm is the fifth realm. Such a strong person can already be called a great power in the spiritual world. It is unclear whether the Shanhai Realm sect that invaded the Martial World this time has anyone in the Void Dao Realm.
"Forget it, let's postpone the restoration of the Zhenwu Palace."
Ning Qi adjusted his mood.
"You just said that we are now in the inner hall of the Zhenwu Palace, which is used to control the flow of time?"
He was feeling somewhat expectant.
Ning Xuan smiled and nodded:
"Fellow Daoist, you should carefully comprehend the spiritual consciousness. You can control many functions by yourself. My existence is just to help you better control the Zhenwu Palace."
Ning Qi's mind moved.
Many mysteries suddenly came to my mind.
The next moment.
The original appearance of the quiet room suddenly began to change, and in the blink of an eye it became exactly the same as the Zhenwu Mountain Seeking Dao Temple.
"It's better to get used to this." Ning Qi said with a smile. This is a simple little function attached to the inner hall, which can be transformed into thousands of things.
He sat cross-legged under the Wudao tea tree and began to experience the various functions of the Zhenwu Hall.
"In this inner hall, the speed of time can be controlled to be different from that of the outside world. With my current cultivation level at the Mana Realm, the ratio can reach ten to one! In other words, ten days pass inside, while only one day passes outside!"
Ning Qi was a little shocked.
This is quite powerful, saving ten times the time.
"And this is the ruined Zhenwu Palace. If it were at its peak, it could speed up by hundreds of times, and even have a certain effect on strong men in the Hedao realm. As for now, due to the lack of rule power, it can only be useful for Yuanshen realm Zhenjun at most."
But even so, Ning Qi was particularly surprised.
As soon as he thought about it, the power of Zhenwu Palace instantly blessed him.
In an instant.
As the weather changes, the leaves of the Wudao tea tree are swaying with a kind of magical light.
Ning Qi clearly felt that there was a difference in the speed of time flowing between himself and outside the Zhenwu Palace. He was now the master of the Zhenwu Palace and could sense the outside world. He "saw" that Senior Black Turtle was pacing back and forth very slowly, as if it was in slow motion. The rushing sea water also became gentle, the wind was slowing down, and the clouds were almost motionless.
However, Ning Qi's own speed of absorbing spiritual energy and cultivating earth energy did not change at all.
"Is this the acceleration of time? What a magical power." Ning Qi couldn't help but sigh.
In this way.
The time it takes for him to break through to the fifth level of Martial Saint will be greatly shortened.
However, after practicing for a while, Ning Qi frowned, and he discovered a problem.
He calmed down and pondered carefully the mysteries of the Five Elements Sword Formation. There were still flashes of inspiration rising in his mind, but he could clearly feel that his condition was a little worse than when he was at his peak.
"What's going on?"
Ning Qi comprehended it carefully.
Then I repeatedly entered and exited the accelerated time state to experience the difference.
After a stick of incense, I finally came to a conclusion.
"My understanding has been affected within a unit of time, but if it is extended to ten times the time, there is no difference between me and the outside world."
"That is to say, this time acceleration cannot affect my understanding."
Ning Qi was a little disappointed.
In this case, his improvement is not as great as imagined, after all, all his foundation comes from his own understanding.
He probably already knew the reason. It was probably because his understanding had already reached the limit of his current life strength. If it were someone else, they probably wouldn't have this problem.
With a sigh of relief, he adjusted his mentality.
It's always better to have something than nothing.
Even though it does not increase his comprehension, it can actually speed up his practice tenfold, saving him a lot of time.
"Besides, this may not necessarily be a bad thing." Ning Qi's eyes flashed, "This just proves that the source of my heaven-defying enlightenment is much more powerful than the fairy treasure of Zhenwu Palace!"
To some extent.
This is a good thing.
Ning Qi's comprehension will continue to improve with his cultivation and life transition. At least for now, there is no upper limit. This means that based on the current information, even if he reaches the "Immortal" realm, he may not have reached the upper limit.
Ning Qi stood up and stopped accelerating time. After all, accelerating time also consumes energy.
He just felt it clearly.
The energy remaining in the Zhenwu Temple now can only be used to accelerate time for a few hundred years at most. The more people there are, the greater the consumption.
"Ning Xuan, take me to see the small world inside the Zhenwu Palace."
The words fell.
The two of them appeared in a vibrant area.
The entire world is not much different from the martial world before the spiritual power was revived, but the difference is that there is no trace of human breath in it, only some animal creatures, but very few of them are born with intelligence, and there are only some spiritual beasts hatched from the spiritual beast eggs left over from the past.
"This piece of heaven and earth was created by the Zhenwu Patriarch who took over a small world that was on the verge of extinction. When it was at its peak, there were hundreds of millions of creatures of all races in it, and even many of the Zhenwu Immortal Sect's geniuses came from here."
"Unfortunately, after the battle, the Zhenwu Palace was destroyed, the world inside was also destroyed, and all the living beings died in the battle. Now it is a new world after re-evolution, which is far inferior to the past."
Ning Xuan explained that although he was just born, everything about the Zhenwu Palace would be directly imprinted in his instincts, and the knowledge of the spirits of the past would also remain.
Ning Qi felt a little regretful.
Suddenly.
He thought of a question:
"Is there no life-threatening poison in the spiritual energy of this world?"
Ning Xuan shook his head and said:
"It was naturally like this before when Zhenwu Palace was a world of its own, but after that incident when its oil ran out, the spiritual energy now is absorbed from the Wu Realm, so naturally there is also the life poison. If Zhenwu Palace was at its peak, it could easily eliminate this kind of rule poison, but now, it is temporarily powerless."
Ning Qi was a little disappointed.
But it is not a big problem. The key to the current problem is not the life poison, unless all the life poisons in the entire martial world can be eliminated.
He sensed everything within the world and was in a good mood. Such a vast world would have many uses in the future.
It is fine to either migrate a group of humans in or use it as a base for cultivating spiritual medicines.
He did not immediately summon the spirit beasts in the world, but said to Ning Xuan:
"Let's go, take me to the inheritance place left by the Zhenwu Immortal Sect."
There was some anticipation in his eyes.
The two biggest gains this time.
One is the Zhenwu Palace, and the other is the Zhenwu Immortal Sect's vast heritage, from the acquired realm to the Hedao realm, immortal magic, countless magical powers, and strange stories and records. It is no exaggeration to say that these things are even more attractive to Ning Qi than the Zhenwu Palace.
With his extraordinary comprehension, if he could fully digest these inheritances one day, it is hard to imagine how profound Ning Qi's foundation would be.
and.
It also contains the supreme method of "The World is Me" mentioned by the old spirit of the weapon before. This is what Ning Qi wants to know most now, and it may be of great help to the current situation.
"Yes." Ning Xuan said with a smile.
The two took a step forward.
Time passes.
Ning Qi was shocked to find that he appeared in a starry sky. If this wasn't the scene of the first level, then where else could it be?
Stars appeared in the sky, and the number was much greater than what was seen in the first level, and even completely different in magnitude. Each star recorded a spell, magical power, secret method, or other secrets. Ning Qi was somewhat amazed:
"Is this the foundation of a spiritual world overlord?"
As his thoughts turned, he had already appeared in the deepest part of the starry sky. Here, an extremely deep and dark star with restrained light was slowly rotating. He could feel that no other star could compare to this one.
Ning Qi sat down cross-legged and probed his spiritual consciousness into it without hesitation.
boom!
As if he heard an invisible roar, a huge amount of information flooded into Ning Qi's mind.
“The world is me, and I am the world. To merge myself into the world and transcend limits is the supreme path!”
A sound like a huge bell rang out.
Secret texts flowed by.
This is the most complicated method Ning Qi has ever seen.
It involves all aspects, the origin of spiritual energy, the rules of the world, the soul, magical powers...
At Ning Qi's current level, there are many things that he cannot understand, because he has not yet taken that step, but he can understand their use.
Ning Qi comprehended it carefully.
It took a long time before he slowly opened his eyes.
"Ancestor Zhenwu, what a talent!"
He was a little surprised.
With his understanding, he had never praised anyone else like this. Patriarch Zhenwu was the first.
"He created this supreme method. If he can further perfect it, he may really be able to find a new path in the era of fighting for immortality in the spirit world."
Ning Qi already understood the essence of this method.
That is to merge your body into the world and become one with the will of the world, so as to achieve the goal of completely controlling the world. After that, the whole world is your own foundation. Your own cultivation is equal to the cultivation of the world, so that you can gradually improve the upper limit of the world. Conversely, the improvement of the world is also the improvement of your own cultivation.
It is conceivable how perverted this is. He is truly invincible in the same level, and even killing high-level cultivators across levels is a piece of cake. According to the idea of the Zhenwu ancestor, after he reaches the Hedao realm and merges with the world, he can even fight against a true immortal.
What’s more amazing is that from now on you will become one with the world. As long as the world does not perish, your life will not end.
This is much longer than the lifespan of one era in the Hedao realm. After all, although the spiritual world does not exist forever in the world, it is no problem for it to exist for tens of thousands of eras, or even longer.
There are so many benefits during this period.
This is absolutely the supreme method.
Ning Qi had admiration in his eyes.
"However, although there are many benefits, this method is not without flaws."
"The first problem is that it's too difficult. If you want to integrate into the world, you have to have a certain degree of compatibility with the world. In other words, you have to have a sufficient understanding of the origin of the world. In the spiritual world, you have to have a certain level of understanding of all the rules."
"A cultivator at the Hedao realm can only completely master a certain rule of the spirit world. If they want to master more rules, even if they don't need to master them completely, the time required is absolutely astronomical. No wonder the Zhenwu Patriarch has not been able to complete it after hundreds of thousands of years of seclusion."
"If you want to merge with the spirit world, you must be a cultivator at the Hedao realm to achieve this."
"But in my opinion, this method is more suitable for integrating small worlds!"
“Although the small world has a low starting point and incomplete rules, it is much easier to achieve harmony with the world. You don’t need to master the power of rules. You only need to comprehend the origin of the world. For other cultivators in the Mana Realm, this is even more difficult than for cultivators in the Dao Realm to master the power of many rules. But for me, it is very easy to do!”
Ning Qi's heart was filled with excitement, and he felt that this method seemed to be tailor-made for him.
certainly.
It's just a coincidence.
Even Ning Qi simply simplified the method of integrating small worlds from the method created by the Zhenwu ancestor.
The more he thought about it, the more feasible it seemed.
It took Patriarch Zhenwu hundreds of thousands of years to create something from nothing, but he didn't need to do that. The most difficult process had already been completed by Patriarch Zhenwu. With his understanding and standing on Patriarch Zhenwu's shoulders, he could easily simplify the corresponding method.
"Integrating the martial world, this might be a way!"
"If I can integrate the will of the martial world, my strength will be raised to an extremely powerful level. No matter how many mana realms descend, it will not be worth mentioning. Even if I don't use the power of the Zhenwu Palace, I will have the capital to continue the stalemate, and then I can slowly look for opportunities to break free from the cage."
An unprecedented hope surged in Ning Qi's heart.
Difficulty, for him, is not a defect at all.
"However, there is a second problem. Once I merge into a world, I will be bound to it from then on. In other words, if the world is destroyed, I will perish with it. I won't be able to escape even if I want to."
"Moreover, you will be bound to the world and your freedom will be greatly reduced."
"In addition, there is a third problem. With the world as your foundation, you gain a terrifying foundation, but it also means that it will become extremely difficult to improve in the future. Cultivation is no longer just about improving yourself as before, but also about improving the world. For example, in the Purple Mansion Realm, a normal cultivator opens up a Purple Mansion in his Dantian. After you merge your body into the world, the whole world is your Purple Mansion. That's a huge difference."
Ning Qi frowned slightly.
These two defects made him more concerned.
He closed his eyes and meditated, with flashes of inspiration flooding his mind. Gradually, his brows relaxed.
"The second problem is easy to solve. I can further improve the method. If it can be freely integrated and untied, then there will be no problem."
"As for the third question, there is no detailed plan yet, but gathering the power of all living beings and using their improvement to feed back to the world may be a good direction."
Ning Qi took a deep breath.
Anyway.
This method of 'the world is me' is a timely relief. Those defects can be solved slowly in the future. The most important thing right now is to face the crisis of invasion from the mountain and sea world. Other things can be done later.
Ning Qi smiled and stretched lazily:
"This harvest is really rich. It's time to go out and inform Senior Black Turtle, so that he won't be anxious waiting."
He looked back at the inheritance hidden in the starry sky.
It’s not too late to look at it slowly later.
…
Inside the main hall.
The old black turtle was extremely nervous.
After Ning Qi entered, there was no movement from the golden portal, so he had no idea what was going on inside. In the past, when those martial saints and geniuses from the martial world came to take the test, the portal would react quickly, but now it was a bit abnormal.
"I hope it's a good result. With Ning's talent and understanding, it shouldn't be so fast. It's a good thing that he doesn't react now." The old black tortoise comforted himself. His heart, which had not fluctuated for tens of thousands of years, now became a little impatient.
He was the fire inheritor chosen by the Zhenwu Palace and had some authority over the Zhenwu Palace, but he was unable to sense anything at this moment.
Don't know when.
One after another figures stepped in from outside the hall, they were spirit beasts.
Pure white cranes, blue-eyed golden lions, thunder dragons, psychic rats... There are no more than ten spirit beasts, but their auras are all very powerful, reaching the level of a fifth-level martial saint. Their eyes are full of desire, which is the desire for freedom.
The Black Turtle is the inheritor of fire and can still walk on the human world, but they can only move around the Zhenwu Palace.
The pure white crane's cold voice sounded:
"Boss Turtle, can this kid... pass the test?"
Expectant eyes looked over.
Hoping for a positive answer.
But the old black tortoise shook his head and said in a deep voice:
"Just wait patiently."
The words fell.
The golden portal that had been silent for a long time finally shone brightly. All the spirit beasts were startled. They looked subconsciously and saw an extraordinary figure slowly stepping out. Who else could it be but Ning Qi?
The old black turtle was about to speak when he immediately sensed some kind of mark on Ning Qi's body. An incredible look of surprise emerged in his pupils, and his old face was trembling.
"Fortunately, I have fulfilled my mission..." Ning Qi had not yet finished his words.
All the spirit beasts bowed down together, their eyes enthusiastic and respectful:
"We are here to see the Master of Zhenwu Palace!"
