The Zhenwu Immortal Sect’s square is spacious and can accommodate millions of cultivators.
There are not only humans but also monsters, and even dozens of ferocious beasts from the sea are quietly lingering nearby.
But now, seeing the figure slowly descending from the sky, they all stood up respectfully.
"Junior Brother Ning!" "Senior Brother Ning!"
"Sect Master Ning!" "Realm Master Ning!"
"Owner!"
Various calls rang out, and the entire square responded like thunder.
Ning Qixu pressed his hands together, and the noise in the square instantly stopped.
He landed in the center of the square, and everyone gathered around him instantly, while those familiar people came to the front.
Ning Qi glanced at the crowd.
From the former master, brothers and friends in the Zhenwu Realm to the people I met in the Shanhai Realm.
He smiled slightly and said, "It's been a long time since we've gathered together. Now that the Three Realms have changed and we've returned to the Zhenwu Realm, I will take the initiative to bring all of you back to the Zhenwu Immortal Sect. Are you willing?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone knew that they were directed at the cultivators in the Mountain and Sea Realm.
Sword Master and Qi Keqing and others looked at each other.
Sword Ancestor seemed to be furious, glaring and saying, "I never expected that my Wuji Sword Sect would end in this way. How are you going to compensate me, Ning?"
Qi Keqing smiled faintly and said, "Friend Sword Daoist, he paid you a Realm Master as compensation. Aren't you unwilling?"
Everyone laughed at this remark.
Sword Ancestor looked at everyone and said, "Are you willing?"
The monks from the Mountain and Sea Realm who were present all shouted, "Yes!"
Seeing this, Ning Qi suddenly realized that Sword Ancestor could always help him win people's hearts.
It seems that the Sword Master is not that kind of stubborn old man. Although he is a sword cultivator, he has a clear sword heart and is well versed in human hearts and human nature.
And Qi Keqing also cooperated very well.
The two of them played a joke in front of everyone, which instantly won everyone's favor and eliminated many barriers.
This will be of great benefit to how everyone gets along in the future.
Thinking of this, Ning Qi said, "Although you are from two different realms, and there are even cultivators from the Haoran Realm outside of the Zhenwu Immortal Sect, everyone in my Zhenwu Immortal Sect must break down the prejudices based on status and guide the entire Zhenwu Spiritual Realm with the principle of equality for all beings."
Taoist Longshan coughed and responded, "Ning, even if you don't say it, we all understand. Don't worry. Besides, even if we wanted to have a prejudice against them, we wouldn't dare. Their overall cultivation is stronger than ours."
This is true. After all, although the cultivators from the two worlds have experienced the spiritual war, all those who remain are elites.
Even though the Zhenwu Spiritual Realm has merged with the Shanhai Haoran Realm, the cultivation level of the cultivators within it has not improved that quickly.
The only thing that makes them stronger than the cultivators from the two realms is their talent and foundation.
Of course, as long as they are given time, they will definitely catch up soon.
This naturally made everyone laugh again, and the air was filled with inexplicable joy.
Ning Qi then had a quick exchange with everyone.
It eliminated the doubts in the hearts of the cultivators in the Mountain and Sea Realm, and also eliminated the uneasiness in the hearts of everyone.
Everyone felt that Ning Qi was still the same Ning Qi, and had not changed after becoming the master of the three realms.
He became high and mighty, seemingly detached from the crowd, and went to rescue the Holy Ancestor and the Sea Ancestor, and by the way, to fight the Mountain Ancestor.
After Ning Qi comforted everyone, he prepared to leave to rescue the Holy Ancestor Sea Ancestor and fight with the Mountain Ancestor.
"The Zhenwu Spiritual Realm is still developing rapidly. You can take advantage of this great change to cultivate peacefully. I will not be showing up for the time being."
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at him with expressions of reluctance.
"Boy, is there anything else we can do? If we just let you fight alone and let the people of the Three Realms practice peacefully, this..."
Sword Master looked at everyone. He did not continue speaking, but everyone understood what he meant.
Ning Qi took on everything by himself, but asked them to practice with peace of mind. How could they really feel at ease?
What's more, now they no longer need to fight for their own worlds like in the previous spiritual war. Now they are all people of one world.
And precisely because this difference in identity has been eliminated, everyone is now willing to contribute in this final battle.
"Brother Ning, we don't want to be idle!"
"Master, although we are weak, we also want to join the battle!"
The shouts rose and fell again, like a wave of sound sweeping across the entire square.
At some point, the Saint Ancestor's clones, the two spirits of Shanhai Zhili, also quietly came to the Zhenwu Immortal Sect.
Also accompanying them were Zhao Yujun, the leader of the Yuehai Immortal Sect in the Shanhai Realm, and Jiang Yingchu, the leader of the Haoran Immortal Sect in the Haoran Realm.
Ning Qi glanced at them and they appeared behind the crowd.
The Saint Ancestor's clone seemed to say something to the Second Spirit, and the Second Spirit actually transmitted all the sounds and images of this place to the entire Zhenwu Spirit Realm, allowing everyone in the realm to see what was happening here.
Their movements naturally attracted everyone's attention.
The crowd gradually fell silent, and they squeezed to the front with smiles on their faces.
Ning Qi narrowed his eyes slightly and asked, "What are you doing?"
"If you want to join the war, don't forget us." The Saint's clone said with a smile.
The Spirit of the Mountains and Seas also said, "Yes, we have just traveled to all the spiritual realms that were once under our command and expressed our condolences to them. They have sent two representatives here."
Zhao Yujun and Jiang Yingchu walked out at the same time, facing the crowd and Ning Qi, saying:
"We two can make this request on behalf of all cultivators in the Shanhai Haoran and Haihe realms. We hope that the Realm Master will agree to our participation in the war. We also want to maintain the security and peace that we have worked so hard to achieve."
Everyone in the Zhenwu Immortal Sect Square looked at them with moved expressions.
At this moment, it seemed that everyone's hearts were connected together.
With unity, regardless of their level of cultivation or status, everyone is willing to step out to protect the newly merged Zhenwu Spirit Realm.
This is different from many wars in the world.
In most wars, the powerful hide behind others and let the people below fight to gain benefits for them.
Things like conscription happen all the time.
But the creatures in the Zhenwu spiritual world were different. They actually took the initiative to ask to join the war.
Simply because, both Ning Qi and the Zhenwu Spiritual Realm are worthy of them doing so.
Ning Qi is the Realm Lord, but he is prepared to take on everything alone. Have you ever seen the masterminds behind wars take on everything on their own?
They just drove the cattle and horses below to fight for them.
Ning Qi frowned slightly.
It’s not that he doesn’t want everyone to join the war, but the only enemy in this final war is Shanzu.
If everyone goes to join the war, are they going to die?
Everyone looked at Ning Qi, and naturally saw the expression on Ning Qi's face.
At this moment, all the living beings in the Zhenwu Spiritual Realm seemed to understand that the Realm Master was afraid that they would lose their lives.
Everyone's heart was touched.
Where can they find such a good master of the world?
Throughout history, few people have worried about the casualties of their subordinates in wars. There are even some ruthless and warmongering people who are willing to sacrifice everyone in order to achieve their goals.
They even said that even if we have to fight to the point of exhaustion and the people have to eat dirt, we must fight!
They are not like Ning Qi, who cares about the lives of the people below.
Especially the people in the Mountain and Sea Realm, their hearts were deeply touched at this moment, especially the surviving cultivators under the command of the Mountain Ancestor.
Shanzu can be considered the supreme ruler of the world, but he treats the people below him like tools.
Either fight for him and die, or become his sacrifice.
At this moment, everyone's hearts were connected together, and vaguely, the beliefs of all beings were consistent. They emitted an extremely pure power of faith and gathered towards the Zhenwu Immortal Sect high in the sky.
A trace of invisible power of faith flew into the Zhenwu Immortal Sect and gathered towards Ning Qi in the center of the square.
"Um?"
The Saint Ancestor's clone and the two spirits of Zhili Shanhai sensed something instantly, and they all looked at Ning Qi in the center in disbelief.
They vaguely sensed that a terrifying unknown force seemed to be rushing towards Ning Qi.
That kind of power is extremely pure and full of hope and light.
Gradually, Ning Qi was coated with a layer of light golden light, appearing extremely sacred!
Everyone saw the golden light on Ning Qi's body. The golden light was not dazzling, but extremely soft, reflected in everyone's eyes and in everyone's hearts.
Everyone felt extremely comfortable and warm, as they became more devout.
"Zhili, could this be?"
The Saint Ancestor's clone asked in surprise.
Although he was well-read, he was not sure whether the golden light on Ning Qi was really what he thought it was.
On the side, Zhili and Shanhai Erling both showed expressions of extreme shock.
Zhili whispered, "Teacher, the hearts of the people are united, it seems to be the legendary power of faith!"
Shanhai opened his mouth wide, stunned, "Is there really anyone who can unite the hearts of the people? How is that possible?"
They are the will of the spiritual world, and we have discussed before the difficulties Ning Qi faced in becoming the will of the spiritual world.
One of the conditions for becoming the will of the spiritual world is to bear the power of all living beings and make them worship it as their master.
But serving him as the master does not mean that everyone respects him from the bottom of their hearts, or is even willing to fight for him.
Just like the sun in the sky, all living beings receive its blessings and regard it as light.
But if the sun incarnates as a human being and calls on all living beings, they may not necessarily be willing to pay attention to him or even believe in him.
Just like the two spirits Shanhai and Zhili, even if they were the will of the spiritual world before, have all living beings ever returned to their hearts?
The mountains and seas were sealed off, and the monks under the command of the Mountain Ancestor only showed superficial respect when they saw him.
The cultivators under Hai Zu were slightly better, but if they were asked to choose between Hai Zu and the spirits of mountains and seas, they would definitely choose Hai Zu without hesitation.
Even though Zhili and Shengzu tried to educate the sentient beings in the Haoran Realm, they were unable to win their hearts.
Therefore, it can be seen how difficult it is to get everyone to return home.
However, Ning Qi now accidentally achieved this feat!
Center of the square.
Ning Qi's slightly frowned brows relaxed at some point, without him even noticing.
His attention was drawn to the golden robe on his body.
Ning Qi was confused, he had no idea what was going on.
He only felt that his body became extremely light, and he felt as if he was floating in the air.
"Boy, this is the faith of all living beings, just be happy about it."
The voice of the Holy Ancestor's clone came quietly.
"The faith of all living beings?"
Ning Qi was stunned, and then he seemed to remember something.
He had read thousands of books before and seemed to have seen this term in some of them.
However, Ning Qi simply pretended it didn't exist. How could such an illusory thing exist?
The Saint Ancestor's clone continued to transmit the message:
"I'm not too sure about this thing, but it has only advantages, no disadvantages. I don't know its specific function either. Legend has it that in a certain special era, some powerful people needed the faith of all living beings to become immortals."
"This is also my first time witnessing this thing. You must be so envious of me!"
Ning Qi received the message and finally understood.
"Is this the faith power required to become an immortal in a certain era?"
He looked at the crowd, and they continued to look at him, their eyes filled with incomparable piety, as if waiting for Ning Qi's response.
At this moment, Ning Qi seemed to sense everyone's wishes and connected with them.
Ning Qi was about to respond when suddenly, the hidden Enlightenment Realm Tree within the Zhenwu Spiritual Realm suddenly emerged on its own.
The huge, illusory shadow of the tree filled the entire Zhenwu spiritual world.
Each leaf is different, some are as big as mountains, some are as small as the tips of grass, and each leaf has a different color.
And they are still changing from time to time, turning into other trees, flowers, plants and leaves.
As soon as the Enlightenment Tree appeared, all living beings felt that their minds instantly became much clearer and they were filled with inspiration.
However, they were pious at the moment and only felt that the huge tree shadow was created by Ning Qi.
They saw that the soft golden light on Ning Qi's body suddenly radiated quietly, coating the entire giant tree with a layer of golden light.
The leaves swayed, making a soft rustling sound, as if they were jumping for joy, as if they were excited...
"What is this tree?"
The Holy Ancestor's clone and Zhili looked at the trees that filled the space between heaven and earth and protected all living things with their shade, and were indescribably shocked!
But Shanhai recognized it.
"The tree from Shanzu before, why does it feel different?"
He has the most say about this tree. After all, he has been sealed by it for countless tens of thousands of years and has absorbed countless amounts of energy.
But at this moment, the feeling this tree gave him was completely different.
It no longer absorbed the power of the world, and its ferocity faded away, appearing extremely sacred.
Ning Qi looked at a huge branch hanging down in the square and couldn't help but reach out to touch it.
Everyone saw that the tree shadow, which was originally an illusion, seemed to be tickling because of Ning Qi's touch.
It swayed slightly, looking somewhat dodging and enjoying it.
"Teacher, for some reason, I always feel like I've seen this tree somewhere, but I can't remember where?" Zhili asked in confusion.
The Saint Ancestor's clone also showed a thoughtful expression.
"The power of faith, the giant tree. I seem to have seen a similar image in the Ancient Road Sacred Map, but it seems different from what I see here. How strange."
At this moment, the spirit of the mountains and seas looked at the shadow of the giant tree, which was also coated with gold. There was a confused look in its eyes, and it nodded in agreement.
"Damn it! I'm supposed to hate this tree, but now I feel the same way as you do!"
For a moment, they couldn't explain where this feeling came from. It seemed as if it was engraved on the foundation of their entire being and suddenly emerged at this moment.
Ning Qi touched the Enlightenment Realm Tree, and he seemed to have received some information again.
"You...are very good...collect more...these powers..."
Ning Qi's heart felt like a huge wave was surging.
This Enlightenment Realm Tree he cultivated seemed to have developed intelligence? (End of this chapter)
