Cultivating with Top Enlightenment

Chapter 640: Chapter 288: The Two Ancestors

Mentioning the opposing Spirit Realm in the realm war, the Vast Realm, piqued everyone’s interest.

In essence, they all know that the True Martial Realm’s goal is to eliminate the Mountain and Sea Realm to prevent the True Martial Realm itself from being devoured.

Therefore, they actually have some goodwill towards the opposing spirit realm, the Vast Realm.

However, considering they will soon participate in the spirit realm war and engage in life-and-death battles with the cultivators of the Vast Realm, they cannot help but raise their guard.

In short, for the True Martial Realm to develop and advance, no matter what spirit realm, they will stand in their way and wish to devour them as soon as they see the True Martial Realm.

In the Gathering Immortals Tower, Ning Qi and the others exchanged cups and continued discussing intelligence.

The person mentioning the Vast Realm was named Zhou Qing, who noticed the realm lord and other True Martial brothers drawn to his words, feeling rare pride for having caught everyone’s attention.

So Zhou Qing continued:

”According to the information we’ve received, the Vast Realm is also an equally powerful spirit realm.”

Zhuang Chen asked, ”What’s the situation within it, Brother Zhou, do you know?”

Zhou Qing smiled and said:

”It’s quite similar to the Mountain and Sea Realm; it also has many domains, with several strong Immortal Sects and over hundreds of Unity Realm ancestors, and it is rumored to have beings beyond Unity Realm.”

Everyone squinted their eyes at these words.

So that’s to say, isn’t the situation within the Mountain and Sea Realm the same?

The gathering in the Gathering Immortals Tower was composed of those reincarnated in the Beixuan Domain.

The Beixuan Domain was just a small domain, quite ordinary within the Mountain and Sea Realm. After all, the strongest in the Northern and Southern Domains was only Integration Realm Perfection.

Other major domains within the Mountain and Sea Realm have Immortal Sects; what is an Immortal Sect, but a sect with a Unity Realm expert in charge.

Even in the largest domains, there are multiple Immortal Sects with several Unity Realm powerhouses vying for superiority.

Ning Qi then said:

”I’m familiar with the situation in the Mountain and Sea Realm, let me explain it to you.”

Bai Shan, Zhuang Chen, and others all looked over.

In terms of intelligence on the Mountain and Sea Realm, no one present knows more than Ning Qi.

After all, as the realm lord, Ning Qi can contact reincarnates scattered across various domains of the Mountain and Sea Realm.

All reincarnates are blessed with the Enlightenment Realm Tree and innate wisdom, boasting exceptional talents.

From top Immortal Sects to ordinary sects, they have infiltrated and secured important positions.

There is no shortage of people like Zhuang Chen, who is the son of a sect leader.

Their gathered information, cross-verified and supplemented by Ning Qi, is naturally formidable.

”The name of the Mountain and Sea Realm does not originate from one mountain and one sea but rather from two individuals.”

The first piece of information Ning Qi revealed startled everyone.

Previously, they had always thought the Mountain and Sea Realm got its name from its topography; little did they know Ning Qi would say it originated from two people.

”One of these individuals is the Mountain Ancestor, and the other is the Sea Ancestor. Both belong to the same era and have appeared in the Mountain and Sea Realm for countless years.”

”It is said that while growing, they have continually competed against each other yet neither has successfully killed the other, even to this day.”

”The Mountain Ancestor occupies the best spot in the Mountain and Sea Realm: Heaven-Reaching Peak, the tallest place in the realm, rumored to reach directly into the starry sea. With it, he commands the masses of mountains extending across all land areas, earning him the title of Mountain Ancestor.”

”As for the Sea Ancestor, defeated by the Mountain Ancestor on land, she has abandoned territorial control and turned her attention to conquering the seas, ultimately unifying them, thus earning her the title of Sea Ancestor.”

”Over time, the names of the two have been passed down, ’one mountain, one sea,’ spoken so often that the world came to be known as the Mountain and Sea Realm.”

Ning Qi’s gaze swept across the crowd, saying, ”It is worth mentioning that the Sea Ancestor is a female.”

Everyone exchanged glances.

Hearing Ning Qi explain the origin of the Mountain and Sea Realm and the situation with Mountain Ancestor and Sea Ancestor, the fire of gossip burned fiercely within them.

True Man Bai Shan teased:

”It seems our True Martial Realm is still more formidable. Though the Mountain and Sea Realm is a spirit realm, no one truly commands the entire realm.”

Zhuang Chen also laughed, ”It’s just that their nativity is better, right? Born in a spirit realm from the start, unlike us who came from small worlds fighting our way up.”

At this point, everyone indeed felt very impressive, and of course, the realm lord even more so.

Suddenly, Zhou Qing asked in curiosity, ”Since we have small worlds like ours and spirit realms like the Mountain and Sea Realm, there must surely be even larger worlds up there? Haven’t these top figures of the spirit realms thought of ascending to the Upper Realm?”

True Man Bai Shan, rarely speaking earnestly, said only:

”The laws of the world often see the strong bully the weak, like the Mountain and Sea Realm devouring our small worlds, like survival of the fittest, like the powerful oppressive of the common folk, this is the prevailing trend, which rarely reverses.”

”Have any of you seen anything reversed?”

Everyone’s eyes were alight as they looked at Ning Qi.

Though unspoken, Ning Qi knew what everyone wished to convey.

They meant that the road they are walking is precisely this reverse path.

Walking this road to overcome weakness with strength, against the prevailing trend, turning the world’s laws upside down...

Ning Qi pondered over True Man Bai Shan’s words, even he felt a slight change in his life’s perspective.

Previously, he just wanted to lead the True Martial Realm to survive, without deepening his thoughts.

For a moment, silence reigned as everyone pondered.

After a while, Ning Qi resumed introducing the situation within the Mountain and Sea Realm.

”The Mountain Ancestor and Sea Ancestor have long been top Unity Realm experts, not appearing for over tens of thousands of years, possibly even transcending Unity Realm.”

”After the unification of the mountain and sea by these two, only then did the Mountain and Sea Realm’s various domains emerge, splitting into hundreds of Spirit Domains.”

Of course, among the hundreds of domains, most are like the Northern and Southern Domains, having only Integration Realm giants.
