Cultivating with Top Enlightenment

Chapter 88: Chapter 82: Can’t Leave for Now

On the Tao Field.

Most people were puzzled and perplexed, as the explanations by several Celestial Beings became increasingly profound, with only a very few able to grasp even a fragment of understanding.

However, Ning Qi’s mind was flooded with spiritual light, like a mighty river, flowing endlessly.

Beside him, Zhuang Chen furrowed his brows in deep thought, feeling that the seniors sitting above might as well be speaking cryptically, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t comprehend. At this moment, he caught a glimpse of Ning Qi beside him seemingly in a state of realization, and couldn’t help but feel admiration.

Fortunately, at this moment, everyone was fully focused on the philosophical discourse of the Celestial Beings, and no one noticed Ning Qi’s unusual state.

Ning Qi was filled with all sorts of ideas. ”It’s exceedingly difficult to enhance my control over the Power of Heaven and Earth in a short period, after all, it’s separated from me by a layer. I can only rely on the Celestial Being Unity Secret Technique to control the Power of Heaven and Earth. Since this is the case, why not try a different approach?” ”Rather than actively using the Power of Heaven and Earth for refinement, why not reverse the approach and let the Gang Qi enter the model condensed by the Power of Heaven and Earth? After all, Gang Qi moves at my will, as effortlessly as an arm moves.” ...

In an instant.

A strange thought arose.

Taking advantage of the Celestial Beings’ philosophical discourse, Ning Qi also realized the form that should be used as the model for the condensation of Power of Heaven and Earth.

The Grinding Wheel.

He began to perfect the details within it.

At an unknown time.

Ning Qi opened his eyes again, with delight shining in them. ”Since it takes the form of a Grinding Wheel, let it be called the Heaven and Earth Grinding Wheel Quenching Gang Technique.”

This technique forms a Heaven and Earth Grinding Wheel around the body using the Power of Heaven and Earth, thereby refining the Gang Qi.

He didn’t expect to obtain such unexpected gains this time; he initially thought it would take a considerable amount of time to create the Condensing Gang Technique, but now achieving success in advance has saved significant time.

In this way, he can save at least half, or even more, of the time needed to step into the Celestial Human Realm.

With many people around, Ning Qi subdued the urge to try the Heaven and Earth Grinding Wheel Quenching Gang Technique, allowing the slight unusual fluctuation around him to gradually calm down.

On the high platform.

The discourse by the five Celestial Beings was nearing its conclusion.

The Cyan Bull Blade Master couldn’t help but sigh: ”The deeper you delve, the more feasible this strange thought seems. Yet unfortunately, with my wisdom and understanding, it’s hard to grasp its true resolution. There are several difficult hurdles that need to be overcome, and who knows what kind of prodigy would be able to completely unravel it.”

True Man Baihe also felt deeply moved: ”Let it be for future generations. With continued effort, hope will naturally arise. Despite this, exchanging thoughts with fellow Taoists this time has been truly beneficial.”

Saying this, he saluted the others.

The several Celestial Beings returned the salute, all feeling they had gained considerably, though Ancestor Wang perhaps had the poorest understanding, gaining the least, but he didn’t show it, lest others think less of him.

However, there was one point on which all four were unanimous.

That was an increased friendliness towards Taoist Longshan. In their view, a Taoist who could propose such strange thoughts surely had an unlimited future.

Taoist Longshan smiled, but inwardly, he apologized.

The Celestial Beings believed this was merely a random thought he stumbled upon, unaware that he had the complete Secret Technique. However, this was the Enlightenment result of his disciple, so he couldn’t arbitrarily teach it entirely to others; proposing some ideas was the utmost limit.

At this moment.

Seeing the Celestial Beings’ discourse come to an end.

The Tao Field was immediately filled with heartfelt expressions of gratitude: ”Gratitude to True Man Longshan and the Celestial Beings for their teachings, we shall remember it throughout our lives!”

All eyes were filled with an insatiable desire, but they also knew they had gained immensely this time and shouldn’t hope for more.

Taoist Longshan smiled and nodded. ”I only wish that each of you gains something.”

At this moment, the Celestial Being Grand Ceremony was nearly complete.

Next.

Was the customary tournament segment.

Martial Artists strive to surpass one another; whenever they gather, inevitably they vie for fame and fortune. Today was Taoist Longshan’s Celestial Being Grand Ceremony, bloodshed couldn’t occur, but sparring was inevitable. Moreover, such occasions provided excellent opportunities to gain fame.

Furthermore, if they could receive pointers from Celestial Being experts, it would be a great fortune.

With five great Celestial Beings present, everyone was naturally very enthusiastic.

According to previous customs, if the Celestial Beings’ discourse was too perfunctory, causing guests to secretly feel dissatisfied, they would issue numerous challenges to the disciples of the sect during the sparring segment, as a form of venting their discontent.

However, this time.

Taoist Longshan’s talk was full of substance, added with the discourse by five Celestial Beings, naturally, none were dissatisfied.

And thus.

When challenging the disciples of the True Martial Sect, everyone showed considerable restraint, giving them face.

However, mainly because the disciples of the True Martial Sect themselves were exceedingly skillful, from the Body Tempering Realm to the Inner Essence Realm and even several White Mist Realm disciples, all performed remarkably well, seldom facing defeat. Even upon losing, they did so commendably, further astonishing everyone at the remarkable competence of True Man Longshan’s disciples.

The entire True Martial Sect was flourishing.

Additionally,

Due to the improved Body Tempering Powder and the numerous Martial Arts Secret Techniques previously created by Ning Qi, coupled with the inherent superior inheritance of the True Martial Sect, such results were expected.

For a moment.

The reputation of the True Martial Sect continued to rise.

Ning Qi merely observed with a smile, occasionally eating some fruits and snacks. Although besides several Celestial Beings, no others at the scene were his match, occasionally encountering a moment of brilliance during the battles could provide him with some nourishment.

Especially during the battles of certain Primordial Core Realm experts, it was all the more so.

Throughout.

The White Ape couldn’t resist but went out to fight several matches. Although he didn’t display the Stance Skill or Stacking Strength Skill, with his physical capabilities combined with several proficiencies in Slaughter Martial Arts, he too defeated many opponents.

This made everyone even more astonished at the True Martial Sect’s foundation, none expected the True Martial Sect to have such an intelligent and powerful Exotic Beast disciple.

However, the White Ape didn’t reveal his Ape King true form; otherwise, it would undoubtedly cause even more of a sensation.

Ning Qi himself was much more low-key, as battles against these people didn’t offer him significant assistance and observing from the sidelines was more beneficial for him. Gaining fame was of no use to him at this stage and would only bring harm.

The several Celestial Beings were still somewhat immersed in the earlier discourse, only gradually regaining composure during the latter half.

Occasionally, they would select a few pleasing and well-performing juniors to point out a tip or two, triggering small climaxes and further invigorating everyone.

In this way.

Time flew by.

The sun set in the west.

The Celestial Being Grand Ceremony also gradually approached its end.

Everyone felt an insatiable desire but understood that the time had come.

As the final two contestants came off the stage, Luo Wentian stood up, cupping his hands towards everyone with a broad smile: ”Today, my master’s Celestial Being Grand Ceremony is successfully completed. We of the True Martial Sect are deeply grateful for that and thankful to the fellow Daoists who came to observe. As it is now late, we warmly welcome everyone to rest briefly within the True Martial Sect for a day or two and then depart in a few days.”

Everyone wore smiles and continuously spoke words of praise.

Some wanted to linger a bit longer in the True Martial Sect to forge closer relations, while others, eager to return home, wished to spread today’s experiences, and some were ready to bid farewell.

Taoist Longshan merely watched with laughter, speaking words of polite retention with the nearby Celestial Beings.

Then, Ancestor Wang suddenly stood up, gazing at the others, his voice resonating throughout True Martial Mountain: ”Everyone, hold on.” ”Today, we may not leave just yet.”

For a moment, everyone was astounded.
