The Spiritual Energy Revival Began in Zhangjiajie

58: Chapter 58 Returning HomeIt has been ten years since his Rebirth.

During these ten years, he practiced his cultivation without interruption, come rain or shine.

Living alone in the isolated mountains, he endured a loneliness that ordinary people could hardly imagine.

He abandoned all the world’s prosperity and devoted himself wholeheartedly to cultivation.

Only because of this,

and by relying on various advantages of foresight and Heaven-Defying Opportunities, was he barely able to become a First-Class Martial Artist.

Yet that Bai Zhu, merely by relying on a lightning spirit bead, achieved the Innate Realm in one fell swoop.

The gap between them was like the difference between clouds and mud.

“Alas, the gap between an ordinary person and a Genius requires a hundred times the effort just to barely catch a glimpse of their back!”

Ji Yebai felt melancholy in his heart.

If only his Aptitude and bone structure were a bit better, his strength would be far more than this.

If these opportunities of his were placed on any of those famous people on the heavenly pride list from his previous life, they would likely have broken through into the Xiantian Realm.

At the very least, they would be Half-step Xiantian.

This melancholy emotion only caused a slight ripple in Ji Yebai’s heart.

It dissipated soon after.

He was Ji Yebai, after all.

His heart was incredibly firm.

His heart for seeking the Dao allowed him to endure ten years of lonely and bitter life; how could it be disturbed by such minor emotions?

Admittedly,

Bai Zhu was the number one peerless Genius.

His starting point was so high that it made others despair of ever catching up.

But,

isn’t Ji Yebai different now too!?

In his previous life, he was just a Third-rate Martial Artist who practiced Longevity Fist and was good at maintaining his health.

But in this life,

he had already become a First-Class Martial Artist with the dual Five Elements Divine Wills of Water and Fire.

In today’s world, he was the strongest person below the Xiantian Realm.

And not only that.

He was constantly tempering his body with the five elements spirit beads; becoming a Xiantian Precious Body was only a matter of time.

“As the saying goes, there is no end to martial arts!”

“In my previous life, the Xiantian Realm was born three years after the Spiritual Qi recovery. As time goes on, new Realms will surely appear.”

Ji Yebai leaned back in his airplane seat, lost in thought.

In the Xiantian Realm, a Treasured Body is born, and one’s Lifespan reaches two hundred years.

Moreover, Internal Energy is promoted to True Essence, allowing one to control the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi within a thousand-meter range.

One could even walk on air and ride the wind.

All sorts of divine wonders no less than those in myths.

Compared to that, the Realms after Xiantian would surely be even more miraculous.

Perhaps one day, Immortals will even be born!

Ji Yebai licked his lips, his heart burning with passion.

“I will definitely be able to reach the Xiantian Realm, which is why I shouldn’t be in a hurry!”

“My bone structure and Aptitude are poor. To keep pace with those Geniuses, I can only increase my foundation to bridge the gap!”

“Foundation...”

Ji Yebai slowly opened his eyes.

“Then how about not rushing the promotion and gathering all of the Five Elements Divine Wills!?”

Ji Yebai’s thoughts fluctuated.

In his previous life,

he had never heard of anyone comprehending five types of Divine Will.

Comprehending a single Divine Will blocked thousands upon thousands of people.

And wanting to comprehend two was even harder than climbing to the heavens.

This was also why that First-class Overlord from the West in the previous life was so famous for mastering the Divine Wills of Water and Fire.

It was precisely because of this that Ji Yebai benefited, as it allowed him to learn of the existence of the ice spirit flame sun flower.

“In the previous life, there were some First-Class Martial Artists that everyone envied, not just because of their strength, but more so because of their luck...”

Ji Yebai’s eyes flashed with contemplation.

The heavenly pride list of his previous life quickly surfaced in his mind.

Soon,

he locked onto two names.

Poison Spirit Holy Hand, Guan Zhou!

Earth-Overturning Sky-Propping, Kong Ruihan!

In the previous life,

although these two were at the bottom of the heavenly pride list, their fame was extremely high.

First was the Poison Spirit Holy Hand, Guan Zhou.

He came from a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners and had extremely high medical skills.

By a stroke of luck, he happened to obtain the yi wood myriad poison pearl.

From this, a Divine Will was born.

According to him,

the yi wood myriad poison pearl actually contained two types of Concept.

However, he chose the Poison Concept, which was more helpful for his medical skills.

He abandoned the Wood Concept.

And thus achieved the title of Poison Spirit Holy Hand.

As for that Earth-Overturning Sky-Propping, Kong Ruihan!

He was the person most loved by millions of netizens.

Relying on ten-thousand-year spirit milk, he comprehended the Earth Concept in one go.

At the Global Martial Arts Tournament, he defeated opponent after opponent with his unparalleled defense.

What moved people the most was his resilient and unyielding character.

In that match against a foreign contestant, he was knocked down time and again, yet he stood up time and again.

Finally, he seized an Opportunity and struck with a move of ’Earth-Overturning,’ making a desperate comeback.

At that moment, he stood in the arena like a pillar propping up the sky, shocking everyone.

Therefore, he was called ’Earth-Overturning Sky-Propping’ by millions of netizens.

“The yi wood myriad poison pearl is said to be in Miaojiang, while the ten-thousand-year spirit milk is a bit closer...”

Ji Yebai rubbed his chin, carefully recalling various rumors from his previous life.

Thanks to being a Martial Artist in his previous life,

even if he was only a Third-rate Martial Artist,

his memory had greatly increased, and after mingling with a bunch of Third-rate Martial Artists for half a year, he had heard all sorts of tidbits.

“I’m actually lucky for the state’s exclusive interviews with First-Class Martial Artists in the previous life!”

Ji Yebai shook his head with a bitter smile.

In the previous life,

the state specifically launched a science and education channel.

The name was ’Approaching Martial Arts’.

Every week, a First-Class Martial Artist would be invited for an interview.

This was also the state’s way of helping the public establish a correct path for martial arts.

But because of this, Ji Yebai had capital in this life.

“I’m stealing their opportunities; I’ll have to find a way to make it up to them in the future!”

Ji Yebai gave a light sigh.

Having experienced the bitter craving for the martial path in his previous life, he felt it more deeply.

For a Martial Artist, an Opportunity is sometimes their fate.

If you have it, you have a good life; if you don’t, you’ll head toward a different fate.

“I exchanged the Longevity Fist for the five elements spirit beads of Laojun Temple. Although the Longevity Fist was originally compiled by people led by Bai Zhu, I have, after all, brought this technique forward by half a year.”

“As long as Laojun Temple hands the Longevity Fist over to the state, plus the commotion Bai Zhu caused today, it will surely attract the attention of relevant departments, thereby accelerating the state’s promotion of Longevity Fist and starting national martial arts even earlier!”

Ji Yebai’s expression was calm, his mind never stopping its calculations.

The state would not forget anyone who has served the people.

Laojun Temple will enter the state’s eyes earlier and even gain a transcendent status.

It will also become a Daoist Holy Land and a martial arts Holy Land sooner.

The reputation and status that brings will be unparalleled.

Don’t just look at it as only six months ahead.

This is six months during the Spiritual Qi recovery.

Under the Spiritual Qi recovery, Geniuses grow every second; half a year is enough to gain a huge advantage.

“As for Daoist Taixu and the others...”

Ji Yebai fell silent.

In the previous life, it was because Daoist Taixu and several others were seriously injured and unconscious that Bai Zhu began to figure out how to use the five elements spirit beads to nourish their bodies.

He then figured out some methods to allow the Master of Taixu Temple and Daoist Qingwei of Wudang Mountain to become Xiantian.

“People inevitably become selfish. I’ll repay this matter after I become a Xiantian!”

Ji Yebai sighed.

Choosing between the two, he could only do this.

Laojun Temple has Bai Zhu; he doesn’t need to worry.

But for Wudang Mountain, if they don’t have Daoist Qingwei as a Xiantian, they might be targeted by some people.

Thinking of this, he had some ideas in his heart.

...

The plane crossed the ocean.

Above the clouds, the sunlight was a bit piercing.

Ji Yebai gently lowered the sunshade and closed his eyes to rest.

Just like that,

fourteen hours later,

the plane landed.

The moment he stepped out of the cabin,

the cool air rushed toward him.

Ji Yebai stretched his body and took a deep breath.

“This air is truly sweet!”

His expression was excited, like a traveler returning home after a long time!
