Cultivating with Top Enlightenment

Chapter 1127: Chapter 493: Have We Been Exposed?

“The power of this sword…”

The Saint Master had no doubt that if it had slashed at him, he would definitely have been killed.

Their strengths were almost the same; how did he pull that off?

“Taoist Friend Ning, you hit the Protective Light Curtain that hard? Aren’t you afraid…”

Wei Immortal still had lingering fear, completely puzzled.

At this moment, from the direction of the True Martial Spirit Realm, the sound of Sword Qi bombarding had already come through.

The Chaos Sword Qi had already slammed into the Protective Light Curtain.

“Boom!”

“Rumble…”

Even from fifty Immortal miles away, the Saint Master and Wei Immortal felt their hearts tremble.

On the distant outer rim of the True Martial Spirit Realm, at the instant the Protective Light Curtain was struck by the Chaos Sword Qi, countless layers of light flared out.

A gigantic Tai Chi Diagram suddenly appeared on the curtain of light.

The Water Pattern Dao Rhyme surged wildly, and a pressure that made their very souls shudder came roaring toward them.

“Swish!!”

“Bang!”

At the instant the first Tai Chi Diagram erupted, taking the point struck by the Sword Qi as the center—

Ripples of light exploded out one after another.

One, two, three!

Countless Tai Chi Diagrams appeared in succession on the Protective Light Curtain.

They linked together, with Water Pattern Dao Rhyme circulating ceaselessly among them.

That pressure gathered into one.

It spread outward from the True Martial Spirit Realm.

Wherever it passed, the gray, hazy mist was torn to shreds.

The Saint Master and Wei Immortal fifty Immortal miles away were already completely dumbfounded.

They never imagined there would be such fluctuations and destructive force.

They could clearly feel that this terrifying pressure was even stronger than what they had just experienced.

Like a tide, it surged toward the outer region of the True Martial Spirit Realm.

Even separated by fifty Immortal miles, it still made them feel short of breath.

“This—!”

At this point, the Saint Master no longer knew what to say.

Wei Immortal stared at the whole Protective Light Curtain, praising nonstop, “Pull one hair and the whole body moves! This is countless small Arrays combined into one great Array!”

“High! That’s really high-level!”

And at this time—

Innumerable Tai Chi Diagrams on the Protective Light Curtain were interlinking with each other.

Together they condensed into a single whole.

The Chaos Sword Qi’s strike, though it had stirred up such a grand spectacle—

It couldn’t shake the Array at all.

At this moment, that Chaos Sword Qi had long since been annihilated by the pressure.

The Tai Chi Diagrams all over the Protective Light Curtain were still pulsing with pressure, surging without end.

Fierce!

This word echoed in the minds of Wei Immortal and the Saint Master.

After about half a stick of incense, the pressure from the Sea of Realms finally began to slowly dissipate.

The fluctuations also started to gradually die down.

But on the Protective Light Curtain around the True Martial Spirit Realm, those Tai Chi Diagrams had not fully withdrawn.

Only then did the Saint Master and Wei Immortal slowly come back to their senses.

“How did you do that?”

The Saint Master finally pulled his gaze back and looked at Ning Qi, asking, “So many Arrays, and you can still combine them so ingeniously!”

Wei Immortal also stared fixedly at Ning Qi, asking curiously, “Taoist Friend Ning, you must have used some special trick for this Array, right?”

Ning Qi put away the Chaos Sword, then smiled at the two of them and explained, “When I was arranging these small Tai Chi Arrays, I carved them according to one gigantic whole.”

“Each small Array is effectively a member of this great Array.”

“They’re bound to each other. When any one of them is attacked, it will instantly trigger the entire grand Array!”

“That way, as soon as you attack one point, you fall right into my trap!”

“All the small Arrays will be activated at the same time. The power they gather can be several times, even dozens of times, that of each individual!”

“Doing this solves my lack-of-manpower problem while still perfectly protecting the entire True Martial Spirit Realm!”

The Saint Master listened and praised again and again, “Kid, only you could come up with something like this.”

“Taoist Friend Ning!”

Wei Immortal laughed heartily and gave him a thumbs-up. “Brilliant! I truly admire you!”

“This method of yours is seriously powerful!”

The Saint Master was utterly convinced by him and followed up with more praise.

“You two praise me too much! Next, there are still two more layers to arrange.”

“But with this experience, it’ll go much faster.”

“How is your Cultivation going? The new things I gave you—how’s the comprehension?”

Ning Qi shook his head and looked at the two, a bit curious.

“We’ve more or less comprehended them.”

The Saint Master first let out a breath of relief, then looked at Ning Qi with a complicated expression. “At first, after comprehending what you gave us, I thought our comprehension ability was already good enough.”

“But now, after seeing how you laid out this Protective Light Curtain…”

“I’ve realized the gap between us and you is not just a little bit.”

“Taoist Friend Ning, when it comes to this Array layout, I, Wei, am utterly ashamed of myself.”

“Only after seeing your setup did I understand that we were just viewing a leopard through a bamboo tube!”

Wei Immortal also shook his head, looking somewhat dejected.

They had thought they’d improved again and closed some of the distance between themselves and Ning Qi.

But now it seemed that not only had the distance not shrunk—

It had actually grown even wider.

Ning Qi waved his hand and said with a smile, “You two really flatter me! But you can keep studying my insights.”

“And you can add your own understandings as well. Don’t slack off.”

“Taoist Friend Ning is right.”

The Saint Master nodded at his words. “We can’t afford the slightest negligence.”

Wei Immortal’s expression turned solemn. “Indeed. I’ll continue my comprehension later!”

“That reminds me, the two of you came specifically to find me today—was there some important matter?”

Seeing them like this, Ning Qi felt relieved.

Then he continued to ask.

Hearing this, the Saint Master finally remembered something and hurriedly said to Wei Immortal, “We almost forgot the main business! You should be the one to say it; you know this matter better.”

“Taoist Friend Ning, we do indeed have one thing to report.”

Wei Immortal also put away his smile, his expression turning grave.

“Oh? What is it?”
