Cultivating with Top Enlightenment

Chapter 92: Chapter 85 Innate Sword Body (Seeking First Subscription and Full Subscription!)

Night falls.

The moon is bright and stars sparse, cold wind rustles, and heavy snow slowly drifts down.

Around True Martial Mountain, disciples constantly patrol back and forth to prevent anyone from sneaking down the mountain at night.

The True Martial Sect has never accommodated so many outsiders overnight, especially when many of them are Gang Essence Realm experts. Although all the Primordial Core Realm experts have left, there are quite a few in the White Mist Realm and Jade Liquid Realm. This keeps Luo Wentian and others on edge, worried that someone might cause trouble in the True Martial Sect by night.

Fortunately.

For now, these people are cooperative, staying inside their guest houses without moving around recklessly.

Ning Qi sits solemnly in the Scripture Pavilion, merging with the universe, silently operating the Celestial Being Unity Secret Technique. With the support of a vast Gang Essence, his perception is magnified to the extreme. With so many disciples patrolling, if there is any disturbance, he can sense it immediately and move towards it.

He ponders the events of the day.

The Ancestor Wang was willing to risk offending everyone just to reveal the Martial Saint Token, clearly not losing his mind out of insanity. ”There is only one possibility, the Great Yan Imperial Court promised benefits that were tempting enough for him.” ”Either a life-extending treasure to let the Ancestor Wang live a little longer; or a promise to allow the Wang Clan to produce another Celestial Being.”

Ning Qi leans towards the latter.

Previously, when his master attacked the Wang Family’s gate, the Ancestor Wang could endure. But now, he risks offending so many people; it seems the Wang Clan has found a future path.

If the Wang Clan indeed produces a new Celestial Being strong person in the future, it will allow the family to prosper for centuries. Moreover, by backing the court, they could gradually move to Yan State, and their development path would differ from ordinary martial arts sects, meaning that offending these sect powerhouses wouldn’t be a big issue.

The only thing Ning Qi doesn’t understand is how the Wang Clan established a relationship with the Great Yan Imperial Court. If this relationship existed earlier, they would have used it; why wait until now?

Unable to make sense of it, Ning Qi let it go.

He simply silently noted Ancestor Wang in his heart. ”If anything happens to my master, I definitely won’t let you go in the future.”

Ning Qi let out a slow breath, dispelling many distracting thoughts.

Right now, thinking about so much is useless, he can only wait.

The only thing he can do is ensure the True Martial Sect remains trouble-free.

Then, strive to cultivate diligently.

He began to operate the Heaven and Earth Grinding Wheel Quenching Gang Technique he had just created during the day.

In an instant.

Not-so-dense Power of Heaven and Earth continually condensed around Ning Qi, forming a constantly rotating grinding wheel that enveloped him, with a faint rumbling sound audible.

Next.

The vast Gang Qi within Ning Qi began to circulate, while the White Mist surged into the grinding wheel, making the rumbling sound, audible only to Ning Qi, even more intense.

Rumble Rumble!

The grinding wheel turned, and the surging White Mist Gang Qi became slightly purer than before.

Ning Qi’s heart gradually became calm. The effect of the Heaven and Earth Grinding Wheel Quenching Gang Technique seemed even better than he expected, which finally made him feel a bit comfortable. ...

The next day.

The guests woke up, gradually accepting the reality.

The die is cast.

Now they can only hope for everything to end smoothly.

They realized that perhaps this was all part of the plan to exterminate the demon, even without the appearance of Ancestor Wang, another strong person from the dynasty would have come with a Martial Saint Token. However, this didn’t make anyone sympathetic towards Ancestor Wang or the Wang Clan.

Since they took the lead, they must have the awareness of being the forerunner.

Especially for those forces having Primordial Core Realm members taken away, their anger had not subsided.

After a night’s reflection, their anger only grew.

Thus.

We have the scene unfolding now. ”Wang Qingshan, I’ve long heard your iron fist is unparalleled, today, I, Wang Bu’er of the Nocturnal Blade Sect, would like to exchange a few pointers,”

A blademan from the Nocturnal Blade Sect coldly challenged.

Initially, everyone staying on True Martial Mountain these few days was to exchange martial arts, so challenging someone seems quite reasonable, right?

Under the gaze of the crowd.

A Gang Essence Realm expert of the Wang Clan turned ashen, not knowing whether to refuse or not, eventually gritting his teeth to accept the challenge.

After an intense sparring.

The Wang Clan expert lost a few moves.

The Nocturnal Blade Sect person didn’t mock, just snorted coldly, which without words made Wang Qingshan even more uncomfortable. But before he could speak, someone else spoke quietly: ”I also want to challenge a disciple of the Wang Clan.”

The Wang Clan disciples looked up, seeing the surrounding figures with arms crossed one by one, their faces turned pale.

The Wang Clan had provoked public anger; although no one dared to be ruthless, they could vent their anger in different ways at least.

Luo Wentian watched from a distance without stopping them, only intervening when they were about to get seriously violent.

It’s not as if they only targeted the Wang disciples; there were also fights among themselves, just the frequency of challenges to the Wang Clan disciples was slightly higher.

Exchanging martial arts, if no hands are moved, then isn’t it just for show? ...

In the Seeking Tao Institute.

Ning Qi listened to Zhuang Chen’s vivid description of the miserable state of the Wang Clan disciples, unable to help but smile knowingly.

Zhuang Chen chuckled: ”Ning Qi, you didn’t see the scene, tsk tsk, the Wang Clan disciples were all bruised and swollen, ultimately refusing to fight, becoming turtle recluses, it was hilarious!”

He laughed holding his belly, gloating.

If it weren’t for his senior brother Dong He pulling him back, he would have challenged a same-realm Wang Clan disciple to vent his master’s anger. ”If I had gone up, I would have definitely beaten that guy into a pig’s head.”

Ning Qi just slightly shook his head.

This was the limit of what everyone could do; the way things are now, Ancestor Wang had no way to pursue it afterwards. But if a Wang Clan disciple died, then it would be a different story.

Just like previously with Taoist Longshan, someone attacked True Martial Mountain intending to seize True Martial inheritance, and only then could he have a legitimate reason; otherwise, if he had killed without reason with force, the Great Yan Dynasty would not have sat idly by. Order still exists, and must still be adhered to. ”Rest well today, let’s continue,” Ning Qi said lightly.

Originally planning that after the Celestial Being Grand Ceremony, to find a reason to keep Zhuang Chen for a few more days to study the mysteries of his Innate Sword Bone, but with this change, there was no need to find a reason.

Zhuang Chen’s face turned bitter: ”Ning Qi, how many more times?” ”No more than three times.”

Ning Qi had confidence in himself. ”Come on!” Zhuang Chen faced death without fear.

Ning Qi was not polite, placing his palm on Zhuang Chen’s shoulder, and a vast Gang Qi surged in.

In an instant.

The sound of Zhuang Chen gasping could be heard in the Seeking Tao Institute. ...

Two days passed in the blink of an eye.

In True Martial City, whispers of suspicion gradually arose.

According to reason, after the Celestial Being Grand Ceremony concludes, many strong individuals would disperse, and news of the ceremony would naturally be spread. Many now wait in True Martial City, hoping to obtain these firsthand accounts.

But now.

Even though two days have passed since Taoist Longshan’s Celestial Being Grand Ceremony, no one has descended the mountain.

Some boldly ventured to the edge of True Martial Mountain to look out. It was said that many strong individuals remained on True Martial Mountain for martial arts exchanges and wouldn’t descend for the time being. ”But even for a martial arts exchange, shouldn’t at least some people come down?” ”Furthermore... it seems there’s no mention of how long the exchange will last.” ”True Martial Mountain is currently in a closed state, even the disciples who relayed messages before haven’t come down!”

This scene was unusual.

For a moment, various speculations arose continuously.

Many martial artists were curious about what was happening, but there were also those who were naturally cautious and chose to flee far away, sensing something was amiss.

In a private room of the inn.

The white-haired youth couldn’t help but gaze in the direction of True Martial Mountain, muttering to himself: ”Could it be... some mishap occurred on True Martial Mountain?”

His heart inexplicably tightened. He originally planned to leave, but at this moment, chose to stay a few more days.

At this moment on True Martial Mountain.

Luo Wentian and others were also aware of the speculations and discussions below the mountain. Occasionally, someone would gaze from afar. They knew this news couldn’t be concealed for long, but each day they could delay would shorten the Demon Sect’s reaction time considerably. ”Already two days have passed, there should not be any major issues.”

The people remaining on True Martial Mountain silently breathed a sigh of relief.

With the speed of Primordial Core Realm and Celestial Human Realm experts, if they were to go all out, they should have already arrived, perhaps even started the battle. ...

Seeking Tao Institute.

Ning Qi slowly released Zhuang Chen’s shoulder, Zhuang Chen’s gasps of refreshment still echoing, he asked weakly: ”Ning Qi, will it be better tomorrow? You said no more than three days...”

The words were not finished.

He wisely shut his mouth.

Because he found that after today’s research Ning Qi did not speak but closed his eyes instead, clearly immersed in some state of contemplation, a stark contrast from before. ”Could it be about to succeed?”

Zhuang Chen’s eyes couldn’t help but show an excited gleam, the suffering of the past few days finally hadn’t been in vain. He finally had the chance to learn the Sword Path Secret Technique Ning Qi promised him!

For a moment.

Zhuang Chen dared not speak.

Ning Qi was indeed in that state of enlightenment.

At this moment.

Ideas continuously sparkled in his mind.

Days of probing had already made him intimately familiar with the special fluctuations and patterns in Zhuang Chen’s body, at least those not engaging with the essence but remaining on the surface. ”The so-called innate sword bone is actually a special fluctuation generated by the bones inside the body, capable of resonating with the muscles, blood, and organs, or rather, resonating with the whole body, thus achieving the effect of amplifying sword skills.” ”Whether it’s enlightenment in swordsmanship or sword training, it’s all the same, even the power wielded with a sword is stronger than ordinary people.” ”I have perused the classics, and typically those with innate sword bones experience a leap after reaching the Celestial Human Realm. In reality, this is because the sword bone is activated after reaching the Celestial Human Realm. Perhaps one can attempt to activate it in advance, even if it doesn’t attain the state at the Celestial Human Realm, it would be better than now.” ... ”How to activate it? How to allow ordinary people to have the effect of an innate sword bone? The key lies in that special fluctuation.” ”Fluctuations... I need to simulate those complex fluctuations... find their internal uniform pattern and integrate it...” ...

Thoughts continued to emerge in Ning Qi’s mind.

Having the experience of creating the Ape King’s True Form before, now this step was not difficult for him. After all, the two share some similarities, except one is activating the bloodline of a Heavenly Beast, the other is activating the innate sword bone, both regarding the gift of physique.

Time passed.

The night sky gradually saw both stars and moon shining, Zhuang Chen returned and assured his brothers, then sneaked back to the Seeking Tao Institute.

He was anxious, but seeing Ning Qi still in deep thought with closed eyes, he dared not disturb.

Finally.

Just as Zhuang Chen was about to nod off, Ning Qi slowly opened his eyes.

It’s accomplished! ”Simulating the special fluctuations of the innate sword bone, combined with various sword path secret techniques, hoping to reach the same height in the future, it shall be called the Innate Sword Body.”

A smile appeared at the corner of Ning Qi’s mouth.

With the experience of creating the Ape King’s True Form before, this time around creating this Innate Sword Body Secret Technique was relatively easier.

This secret technique is very powerful, not inferior to the Ape King’s True Form, and even surpasses it in some respects. ”Although it cannot amplify enlightenment in swordsmanship, it can amplify the slaughter in swordsmanship. If I am in the state of the Innate Sword Body and Unity of Heaven and Man, then executing the Heavenly Sword Technique would be my strongest sword now!”

However, Ning Qi still had some regrets, because this secret technique did not fully reach the pinnacle he envisioned.

Naming it the Innate Sword Body represented his high expectations.

If someday, this secret technique can even amplify the comprehension of swordsmanship, it would be even more extraordinary, perhaps one could create multiple ’innate sword bones’, but Ning Qi estimated that this involves touching the essence of the innate sword bone. ”Ning Qi, how is it?”

Zhuang Chen eagerly awaited, the temptation of the chicken leg dangling before him drove him mad, now finally to have it, he couldn’t help but be excited.

Ning Qi did not break his promise: ”Come, I’ll teach you.”

Moments later.

Looking at the dumbfounded Zhuang Chen, Ning Qi smiled slightly. For others, it’s nearly impossible to grasp this technique, only Zhuang Chen, who is born with the innate sword bone, has such special fluctuations in his body, which greatly reduces the difficulty of comprehending the secret technique.

Looking at the frowning Zhuang Chen deep in thought, Ning Qi gazed up at the night sky, his thoughts inevitably drifting afar: ”Two or three days have already passed. I wonder if everything is going smoothly with Master?”
