Chapter 228: Cultivating For Hundreds Of Years, Ji Qing Finally Becomes A Great Expert!
Purgatory Realm, Spirit Fusion Lineage, Ninth Peak.
Ji Qing, as always, paid attention to fortune each day.
Suddenly, Ji Qing felt a fluctuation in his fortune.
Although it was still rising, there was a faint trace of black qi.
The black qi seemed to be devouring his fortune.
This was highly unusual.
Ji Qing knew what this trace of black qi represented.
It represented a decline in Ji Qing’s fortune.
In other words, something must have happened.
Ever since Ji Qing could sense his fortune, it had been constantly rising; it had never declined.
This was the first time.
“What happened that caused my fortune to decline?”
Ji Qing frowned.
He was currently at the Dharma Aspect Realm, comparable to a Saint Venerable in combat power.
In the Black Ruins, who didn’t know his name?
Many people already admitted in their hearts that as long as he didn’t die, he would likely become a Supreme Expert in the future.
He was the undisputed next Supreme Expert of the Thirteen Meridians of Purgatory!
With such a bright future, how could Ji Qing’s fortune decline?
This was not normal!
“Can Xiu, have you heard any news recently?”
Ji Qing asked.
“Your Highness, there’s no news recently,”
Can Xiu Venerable thought for a moment and reported truthfully.
“No news…”
Ji Qing pondered deeply.
Where could his fortune be declining from?
“Whoosh.”
At this moment, a familiar figure appeared.
“Elder Tianjizi?”
Ji Qing naturally recognized Tianjizi.
Although he was no longer the Hall Elder, he was still a Great Expert of the Spirit Fusion Lineage.
“Ji Qing, something big has happened. The thirteen Lineage Masters went to the Nirvana Forbidden Zone three years ago and haven’t returned. But just now, a Great Expert has returned from within the Nirvana Forbidden Zone…”
Elder Tianjizi’s expression was filled with worry.
Ji Qing’s heart stirred, and he immediately understood Elder Tianjizi’s meaning.
The Nirvana Forbidden Zone was extremely dangerous. Now that a Great Expert had left the forbidden zone, but the thirteen Lineage Masters couldn’t get out, could they have encountered some danger?
“Elder Tianjizi, there’s no need to worry. No matter how dangerous the Nirvana Forbidden Zone is, with the thirteen Lineage Masters working together, no matter what trouble they encounter, it’s impossible for not even one Lineage Master to return, right?”
Ji Qing’s words made Elder Tianjizi hesitate to speak.
But in the end, he said nothing and left Ninth Peak.
Ji Qing looked at the decline in his own fortune.
Could it be because of the thirteen Lineage Masters?
The thirteen Lineage Masters were the pillars of the Thirteen Meridians of Purgatory on the surface.
Essentially, without Saint Venerables, the thirteen Lineage Masters could roam freely in the Black Ruins.
Whatever trouble they encountered, the thirteen Lineage Masters could solve it together.
For example, the suppression of the Heavenly Fire Emperor Sect last time relied on the thirteen Lineage Masters joining forces.
It forced the Heavenly Fire Emperor Sect to admit defeat.
If the thirteen Lineage Masters were to have an accident, the consequences for the entire Thirteen Meridians of Purgatory would be unimaginable.
That’s why Elder Tianjizi was so worried.
However, the Life Tablets of the thirteen Lineage Masters were not shattered, which meant they were safe.
Time passed day by day.
After only seven days, Ji Qing felt his fortune tremble violently again.
His fortune had dropped again.
And this time, the drop in fortune was quite significant.
“Swish.”
Ji Qing opened his eyes.
He knew that something big must have happened!
“Swish, swish, swish.”
Elder Tianjizi came again.
Not only Elder Tianjizi, but many Great Experts and Elders from the Thirteen Meridians also came to Ninth Peak.
Everyone’s expression was solemn.
It seemed that something big had indeed happened!
Can Xiu Venerable and others saw this scene, their expressions were also solemn, and their hearts were filled with stormy seas.
So many Elders came to Ninth Peak, and their attitude was very respectful.
Clearly, they regarded Ji Qing as the one making decisions for the Thirteen Meridians of Purgatory now.
This was also the common decision of the thirteen Lineage Masters back then.
After they left, they were to find Ji Qing if anything happened.
Everything was to be decided by Ji Qing!
“Ji Qing, news has just come that multiple Nirvana Realm Great Experts have seen the thirteen Lineage Masters in danger within the Nirvana Forbidden Zone. They are trapped, and their fate is grim!”
Elder Tianjizi spoke immediately.
As soon as these words were spoken, Ji Qing’s heart sank.
Ji Qing’s gaze swept over the Elders one by one.
Clearly, these Elders had all rushed here after hearing this news.
“Summon the Nirvana Realm Elders from each lineage to the Great Hall immediately!”
Ji Qing made a decisive move.
Afterwards, everyone arrived at the Great Hall.
Soon, figures one after another entered the Great Hall.
They were all Nirvana Realm Elders from each lineage.
They all looked solemn and took their seats in the Great Hall.
Clearly, most of them already knew the news.
It had been many years since the Thirteen Meridians of Purgatory had experienced such a crisis.
“The thirteen Lineage Masters are in danger now, should we awaken the Old Ancestor and ask him to preside over the situation?”
“Who would have thought that the thirteen Lineage Masters, joining forces to enter the Nirvana Forbidden Zone, would have none of them come out? If they all perish, it would be a great catastrophe for the Thirteen Meridians of Purgatory; we can only ask the Old Ancestor to intervene.”
“But now the thirteen Lineage Masters are merely trapped in danger, not dead yet, are we just going to ignore them?”
“How can we manage? That Nirvana Forbidden Zone is extremely dangerous, with a high mortality rate. If an ordinary Great Expert enters alone, the mortality rate is terrifyingly high. Now that even the thirteen Lineage Masters are trapped together, who else can save them?”
Many Elders shook their heads.
The Purgatory Realm still has an Old Ancestor in charge, so there shouldn’t be any major issues.
But without the thirteen Lineage Masters, what authority would the Thirteen Meridians of Purgatory have in the Black Ruins from now on?
“Silence, everyone!”
Suddenly, Ji Qing spoke.
The many Great Experts turned their gaze to Ji Qing, their eyes lighting up.
Yes, they had almost forgotten.
There was still Ji Qing!
Back then, the Tianguang Alliance and the Heavenly Fire Emperor Sect, with ten Top Great Powers and dozens of Ordinary Great Experts, had jointly attacked, but Ji Qing had counter-killed them.
There were even rumors that Ji Qing possessed Saint Venerable combat power.
Whether the rumors were true or not, Ji Qing’s formidable strength was already common knowledge.
Now that such a crisis had occurred in the Thirteen Meridians of Purgatory, it was naturally up to Ji Qing to preside over the situation.
The Black Ruins respected strength above all else.
Even though Ji Qing was only a Core Disciple, and his cultivation was only at the Dharma Aspect Realm.
His combat power was astonishing, and the Nirvana Realm Great Experts from each lineage were willing to obey Ji Qing’s orders.
“The thirteen Lineage Masters are trapped in the forbidden zone. First, let’s confirm if the news is accurate.”
“Moreover, the Thirteen Meridians of Purgatory have many Old Ancestors; the sky will not fall!”
“Everyone think, which Old Ancestor should we awaken?”
Ji Qing’s words made everyone nod in agreement.
“The news is absolutely accurate. More than one Great Expert has mentioned the thirteen Lineage Masters being trapped. Furthermore, they are from different factions, so it cannot be false.”
“As for which Old Ancestor should be awakened, we believe it should be ‘Changfeng Old Ancestor’ of the Spirit Fusion Lineage. The Old Ancestor previously stated that if it were a matter of life and death for the Thirteen Meridians of Purgatory, we could first awaken ‘Changfeng Old Ancestor’, and then ‘Changfeng Old Ancestor’ would decide whether to awaken other Old Ancestors.”
Ji Qing nodded.
“Then let’s go awaken Changfeng Old Ancestor.”
“Yes.”
Ji Qing’s words also gave everyone a sense of direction.
After all, with the Old Ancestor not awakened, Ji Qing was currently the strongest on the surface in the Thirteen Meridians of Purgatory.
Many people couldn’t help but sigh.
How long had it been since Ji Qing became a Core Disciple?
Now he had actually become the backbone for the many Great Experts of the Thirteen Meridians of Purgatory?
Everyone waited for several hours.
“Whoosh.”
Suddenly, an old man in green appeared in the Great Hall.
Everyone immediately bowed and said, “Greetings, Changfeng Old Ancestor!”
This old man was Changfeng Old Ancestor, a Saint Venerable of the Spirit Fusion Lineage!
Ten thousand years ago, Changfeng Old Ancestor was a powerful figure in the Black Ruins. Now, many people no longer knew of his reputation, or even his name.
But Changfeng Old Ancestor had already become the foundation of the Thirteen Meridians of Purgatory!
Changfeng Old Ancestor came before Ji Qing.
He examined Ji Qing from head to toe.
The more he looked, the more surprised and uncertain he became.
“Ji Qing, I know you. You are the most talented person in the history of our Spirit Fusion Lineage. You have achieved four Legendary Supernatural Powers and four Supreme Dharma Aspects at the Dharma Aspect Realm, and your strength is incredible.”
“Your praise is too much, Old Ancestor. Now that you have awakened, and the Thirteen Meridians of Purgatory have you to preside over matters, this disciple can rest assured.”
“What do you intend to do?”
“This disciple intends to go to the Nirvana Forbidden Zone. The thirteen Lineage Masters are in danger; no matter what, they must be rescued!”
As soon as Ji Qing said this, Changfeng Old Ancestor’s expression changed drastically.
Everyone was extremely shocked.
Ji Qing was actually going to the Nirvana Forbidden Zone?
And alone at that.
The Nirvana Forbidden Zone had just trapped the thirteen Lineage Masters.
Wouldn’t Ji Qing be in grave danger on this trip?
He might even suffer the same fate as the thirteen Lineage Masters.
“Ji Qing, you absolutely cannot go. You are the hope of the Thirteen Meridians of Purgatory. When the Lineage Masters left, they specifically instructed that no matter what happened, you must be protected.”
“Yes, even if you go to the Nirvana Forbidden Zone, it will be of no use. The thirteen Lineage Masters couldn’t escape the dangerous situation; what use is it if you go?”
“Our Thirteen Meridians of Purgatory has already lost thirteen Lineage Masters; we cannot afford to lose our top genius.”
Many Great Experts tried to persuade him.
They did not want Ji Qing to go to the Nirvana Forbidden Zone.
After a long silence, Changfeng Old Ancestor slowly spoke, “Only Nirvana Realm Great Experts can enter the Nirvana Forbidden Zone. Ji Qing, although your combat power is astonishing, you are only at the Dharma Aspect Realm, not the Nirvana Realm. You cannot enter!”
Many Great Experts were slightly stunned.
Yes, Ji Qing was only at the Dharma Aspect Realm and could not enter the Nirvana Forbidden Zone.
They were all worried and had forgotten that Ji Qing was only at the Dharma Aspect Realm.
“Old Ancestor, if this disciple breaks through to Nirvana Realm, can I go to the Nirvana Forbidden Zone?”
“Yes!”
Changfeng Old Ancestor agreed.
The opening period for the Nirvana Forbidden Zone is only ten years.
Once it has been open for ten years, the Nirvana Forbidden Zone will close.
And the Nirvana Forbidden Zone has already been open for three years.
This means that the Nirvana Forbidden Zone will close in seven years.
If Ji Qing wants to enter the Nirvana Forbidden Zone, he must break through to Nirvana within seven years.
This was clearly not an easy task.
Changfeng Old Ancestor could vaguely sense that Ji Qing’s mind had not yet broken through to the Third Realm.
How could the breakthrough of the Great Realm of Mind be so easy?
It was easy to be trapped for decades or even a hundred years.
“Thank you, Old Ancestor.”
Ji Qing turned and left the Great Hall.
He was never good at or fond of handling mundane affairs.
Now that Changfeng Old Ancestor was here, those mundane affairs would naturally be left to him.
Ji Qing returned to the Ninth Peak.
Baoyue, Yunmeng Goddess, and Can Xiu Venerable quickly came to greet him.
“Fellow Daoist Ji, what exactly happened?”
Baoyue asked.
The current Baoyue was actually already a Void Glimpse cultivator.
But in the Thirteen Meridians of Purgatory, Void Glimpse was nothing special.
Especially the scene that had just occurred.
The Great Experts and Elders of each meridian had all arrived; anyone could tell something big had definitely happened.
Ji Qing did not hide anything and explained it.
After all, this matter would likely spread throughout the Black Ruins very soon.
“What, the thirteen Lineage Masters are trapped in the Nirvana Forbidden Zone?”
Baoyue, Yunmeng Goddess, and the others’ faces instantly changed.
To them, the Thirteen Lineage Masters were top experts in the Black Ruins.
After all, they had not yet come into contact with the level of Saint Venerables.
Yet, these Thirteen Lineage Masters, at the top tier of the Black Ruins, were actually trapped in a forbidden zone?
“The Thirteen Meridians of Purgatory have awakened their Old Ancestor, so they will be fine.”
Ji Qing briefly explained.
The three of them left.
Ji Qing began to adjust his state.
His current Fortune had begun to decline.
Clearly, the fact that the thirteen Lineage Masters were trapped in the Nirvana Forbidden Zone had a significant impact.
It was so significant that it affected Ji Qing’s Fortune.
It should be known that Ji Qing was only indirectly affected.
This showed the influence of the thirteen Lineage Masters within the Black Ruins.
If the Thirteen Lineage Masters could not be rescued in time, Ji Qing’s Fortune would continue to decline.
“The accumulation of Black Ruins Fortune during this period is almost enough! Having accumulated so much Fortune, whether my mind can break through to the Third Realm depends on this one time!”
Although Ji Qing had lost some Fortune during this period.
The loss of that little bit of Fortune would not have a significant impact at all.
Ji Qing was now at the Second Realm, Tenth Order of Mind.
If he wanted to break through to the Third Realm of Mind, the Purgatory Realm and the Desolate Realm alone would not suffice.
He needed the Black Ruins!
Ji Qing had decided to integrate his Spiritual Imprint into the Origin of the Black Ruins, use his heart to replace heaven’s heart, and temper his mind with the Black Ruins!
This step actually carried a certain degree of danger.
But Ji Qing had accumulated such a vast amount of Fortune.
No matter what, he had to try.
Three days later, Ji Qing had adjusted his state to its peak.
Thus, Ji Qing traversed space and left the Ninth Peak, arriving in the Black Ruins.
This place was just outside the Purgatory Realm and was very safe.
Ji Qing no longer hesitated.
“Let’s begin…”
Ji Qing’s Consciousness focused on his Spiritual Imprint.
He had already integrated his Spiritual Imprint into the Black Ruins.
Although Ji Qing had performed “use my heart to replace heaven’s heart” countless times before.
This time was different from all previous times.
This time, he was performing “use my heart to replace heaven’s heart” within the Black Ruins.
He was going to replace the will of the Black Ruins.
The vast Black Ruins was countless times stronger than the Purgatory Realm or the Desolate Realm.
Ji Qing was very clear about his goal this time.
Strive to last for one breath.
One breath was enough.
The Black Ruins Fortune he had accumulated for so many years could finally be put to use.
Ji Qing no longer hesitated.
His Consciousness instantly merged into the Origin of the Black Ruins.
“Boom.”
Ji Qing’s Consciousness roared.
He had never felt so insignificant as he did at this moment.
It was as if a drop of water had fallen into the vast ocean.
How could a drop of water stir the ocean and create waves?
Impossible!
This was how Ji Qing felt right now.
He felt like a drop of water.
Trying to stir the ocean’s waves.
It was simply wishful thinking.
In the state of “use my heart to replace heaven’s heart,” Ji Qing couldn’t even see the operation of the Black Ruins’ rules clearly.
Because it only lasted for an instant.
“Crack.”
Ji Qing’s Consciousness seemed to shatter.
He only lasted for an instant.
As for the one breath he had predicted earlier, that was simply overthinking.
Even with his vast Fortune, wanting to last for one breath was like a fool’s dream.
Therefore, Ji Qing felt his Consciousness being crushed by the Black Ruins, like an eggshell, completely broken.
“This time, the loss is heavy…”
Ji Qing’s heart tensed.
Although his Consciousness was crushed, he would not die. After all, he had his Spiritual Imprint, and his Consciousness could slowly recover.
But how long would that take?
The recovery of Consciousness was especially slow.
What about his Physical Body?
Fortunately, it was outside the Purgatory Realm. If someone found his Physical Body, they would likely take it back to the Purgatory Realm for safekeeping.
This was not a big problem.
But if the recovery of his Consciousness took decades or even a hundred years?
This was not impossible.
This time, Ji Qing had truly miscalculated.
He hadn’t expected the Black Ruins’ rules to be so terrifying.
The vast Fortune he had accumulated could only last for an instant.
However, after his Consciousness shattered, Ji Qing felt that his Consciousness had not been annihilated.
“Huh? What is this…”
Ji Qing felt a moment of daze.
He detached from his Spiritual Imprint.
His Consciousness returned to his Physical Body.
“Whoosh.”
Ji Qing opened his eyes.
He felt as if the Black Ruins before him had become different.
The Black Ruins contained countless Black Ruins rules.
Ji Qing couldn’t see them before.
But now, these Black Ruins rules appeared clearly before Ji Qing’s eyes.
The “secrets” hidden within the Black Ruins were no longer so mysterious to Ji Qing at this moment.
Ji Qing had an Inspiration Strike and immediately understood.
He immediately checked his Mind data.
“Mind: Cocoon Breaking Butterfly ( Third Realm First Order )”
Ji Qing’s eyes lit up.
As expected, his Mind had successfully broken through to the Third Realm.
The feeling Ji Qing had of his Consciousness shattering was actually his Mind transforming to the Third Realm, a Cocoon Breaking Butterfly.
Primarily, it was the “cocoon breaking,” feeling as if his Consciousness had shattered.
The Third Realm Mind could turn the impossible into possible, perceive all illusions, and carry reality with its ethereal nature, it was incredibly profound!
“Carrying reality with the mind… no wonder to break through to the Nirvana Realm, the mind must reach the Third Realm. Only a Third Realm mind can carry Laws!”
At this moment, Ji Qing’s mind was suddenly enlightened, and he completely understood.
However, Ji Qing still felt a lingering fear.
Performing “use my heart to replace heaven’s heart” in the Black Ruins was too difficult.
Such a vast amount of Fortune could only last for an instant.
However, Ji Qing was lucky.
Since he now knew that the Black Ruins rules were terrifying, he would definitely make more thorough preparations next time.
He would not be as flustered as this time, almost having his Consciousness crushed.
Ji Qing returned to the Ninth Peak.
His Mind had now broken through.
Then there was only one thing left.
To carry Laws and ascend to Nirvana!
Carrying Laws requires sensing Laws, then drawing down Law Power, and carrying it with Dharma Aspect and Divine Ability.
Ji Qing immediately went to pay his respects to Changfeng Old Ancestor.
He informed Changfeng Old Ancestor of his current situation.
“Your mind has broken through to the Third Realm and you wish to carry Supreme Law?”
Changfeng Old Ancestor was also moved.
Third Realm Mind!
Ji Qing had actually broken through?
How long had it been?
Ji Qing went to the Heart Questioning Platform.
Changfeng Old Ancestor no longer had any doubts.
It was indeed a Third Realm Mind.
“There are three Supreme Laws in our Purgatory Thirteen Meridians. These three Supreme Laws are respectively placed in the Spirit Fusion Lineage, the Jie Mie Lineage, and the Reincarnation Lineage, which are the upper three meridians.”
“First, go and sense these three Supreme Laws to see if they are compatible with your Dharma Aspect?”
Changfeng Old Ancestor also immediately took Ji Qing to the most secret place of the Spirit Fusion Lineage.
Soon, Ji Qing arrived at this secret location.
As soon as he entered this secret place, Ji Qing felt various active Laws.
Not only were Common Laws active, but also Superior Laws and even Top-tier Laws.
There was almost everything.
It was like normally trying one’s luck, it would take hundreds or thousands of years, traversing endless Black Ruins, to encounter even one Superior or Top-tier Law.
But in this secret place, one could sense many Superior and even Top-tier Laws.
Among them, one Law transcended all others.
All Laws bowed towards that one Law.
That was the Supreme Law!
“This is the Land of Laws of our Spirit Fusion Lineage! The successive Old Ancestors of our Spirit Fusion Lineage used a very special method to draw in this Supreme Law, and then ‘suppress’ it, locking it forever in the Land of Laws. Only in this way can our Spirit Fusion Lineage forever possess this ‘Supreme Law’.”
“As for the other Top-tier Laws and Superior Laws, they were attracted by this ‘Supreme Law’ and gradually became the Foundation of our Spirit Fusion Lineage.”
“Ji Qing, if you wish to carry the Supreme Law, first sense it and see if this Supreme Law is compatible with your Divine Ability and Dharma Aspect? Remember, it must be compatible. Otherwise, forcibly carrying the Supreme Law might cause your Divine Ability and Laws to collapse, making it not worth the loss.”
Changfeng Old Ancestor warned.
“Yes, Old Ancestor.”
Ji Qing immediately closed his eyes to gain enlightenment.
Ji Qing already possessed an Innate Dao Heart.
As he focused his enlightenment with all his might, this Supreme Law emitted brilliant light.
This was a Destruction Law!
As this Supreme Law shone brightly, all other laws seemed to dim in comparison.
The other laws were also Destruction Laws, but they were all subordinate to the Supreme Law.
Ji Qing had a question.
“Old Ancestor, if I, your disciple, were to bear this Supreme Law, wouldn’t the Supreme Law of my Spirit Fusion Lineage disappear from then on?”
“Hahaha, Ji Qing, what you will bear is only a portion of the Supreme Law’s power. The true Supreme Law, let alone you, even Supreme Experts cannot bear it. After all, among the Three Thousand Great Dao Laws of the Black Ruins, there is only one Supreme Law within each law.”
“In the Nirvana Realm, one merely bears the power of the Supreme Law. The more powerful the Divine Ability or Dharma Aspect, the greater the Supreme Law’s power it bears. The minimum is one portion of Supreme Law power, and the maximum is unknown; it depends on how many portions of Supreme Law power you can bear.”
“And one portion of Supreme Law power is equivalent to ten thousand portions of Common Law, one thousand portions of Superior Law, and one hundred portions of Top-tier Law. The gap is extremely exaggerated.”
Ji Qing suddenly understood.
He had been wondering earlier.
The Three Thousand Great Dao Laws were the foundation of the Black Ruins’ operation.
If cultivators bore these laws, wouldn’t the Three Thousand Great Dao Laws have disappeared long ago after so many years?
Wouldn’t the Black Ruins have collapsed long ago then?
It seemed now that his understanding was not clear enough.
No one could bear laws; they could only bear the power of laws.
The stronger the foundation and background, the more and stronger laws one could bear.
Moreover, each Divine Ability and Dharma Aspect could only bear the power of one law.
Therefore, one had to choose carefully.
Ji Qing had four Divine Abilities and Dharma Aspects, so theoretically, he could bear four laws.
By bearing the power of one law, he would be able to break through to the Nirvana Realm.
As for the other three Dharma Aspects and Divine Abilities, after he became a Nirvana Realm expert in the future, he could still bear them, and it would not affect him at all.
Ji Qing thought about it. If he were to bear this Destruction Law, he could only do so with the Myriad Fusion Meridian.
The Myriad Fusion Meridian was used to amplify the Annihilation of Ten Thousand Laws Supernatural Power.
It had high compatibility with this Destruction Law.
Ji Qing opened his eyes.
“Old Ancestor, may I see the Supreme Laws of the other two lineages?”
“Of course.”
Thus, Changfeng Old Ancestor personally led Ji Qing to the Reincarnation Lineage and the Jie Mie Lineage.
The Supreme Law of the Reincarnation Lineage was the Law of Death.
In the Jie Mie Lineage, the Supreme Law was the Law of Life.
This came as a surprise to Ji Qing.
Ji Qing wanted both of these laws.
After all, they were both very miraculous laws.
However, they did not seem to be very compatible with Ji Qing’s current Dharma Aspects and Divine Abilities.
This was problematic.
It was still possible to bear laws that were not compatible, strictly speaking.
But for incompatible laws, the requirements for Divine Abilities and Dharma Aspects would be higher.
What was originally able to bear several portions of Supreme Law power might only be able to bear one portion, or even be unable to bear any law power, if the laws were incompatible.
This was the difference.
Ji Qing pondered.
“Ji Qing, have you made up your mind? Decided which law to bear?”
Changfeng Old Ancestor asked.
Bearing a law was a very crucial decision.
“Old Ancestor, can a Divine Ability or Dharma Aspect truly only bear one law?”
Ji Qing couldn’t help but ask.
The Law of Death and the Law of Life, even if they weren’t compatible with his Divine Abilities and Dharma Aspects, he still yearned for them.
Those were Supreme Laws!
Rare and precious, only to be encountered by chance.
If he were to give them up just because of compatibility issues, Ji Qing felt it would be too much of a pity.
“This…”
Changfeng Old Ancestor frowned.
“Actually, it’s not that you can’t bear a second or third law, but because our Divine Abilities and Dharma Aspects have their limits. Bearing one law is already the limit. If you bear a second law, the pressure will increase exponentially. Who can withstand that?”
“So, over time, no one has attempted to bear two or three laws.”
After a long pause, Changfeng Old Ancestor explained.
Ji Qing’s eyes lit up?
So that was it!
It was simply because the Divine Abilities and Dharma Aspects couldn’t handle it?
This made sense!
How many laws one could bear depended on the tolerance of one’s own Divine Abilities and Dharma Aspects.
Ji Qing rejoiced in his heart.
“Old Ancestor, your disciple feels that all three Supreme Laws are fated with me. I intend to bear all three Supreme Laws!”
Ji Qing announced his decision.
“To bear three Supreme Laws?”
Changfeng Old Ancestor seemed to have guessed Ji Qing’s decision.
He wanted to persuade him.
But upon careful consideration, Ji Qing possessed a Legendary Supernatural Power and a Supreme Dharma Idol.
Such a cultivator had never appeared in the Thirteen Meridians of Purgatory before.
No one knew what his limits were.
“Good, you should first bear the Destruction Law of our Spirit Fusion Lineage. This Supreme Law should be compatible with your Annihilation of Ten Thousand Laws Supernatural Power.”
“Yes, Old Ancestor.”
Ji Qing agreed.
It seemed the Old Ancestor had also learned about his background during this time.
He even knew about the Annihilation of Ten Thousand Laws Supernatural Power.
“I will personally guard you!”
“Thank you, Old Ancestor!”
Ji Qing then went to the Land of Laws of the Spirit Fusion Lineage.
The Destruction Laws here were very active.
But Ji Qing’s goal was that Supreme Law.
This was a qualitative transformation from the Dharma Aspect Realm to the Nirvana Realm.
It would even elevate one’s very life.
Gradually transforming from a flesh-and-blood being into a Law Life.
This step was crucial for any Martial Artist.
Wang Feng had done his utmost back then to bear a law.
Ji Qing estimated that Wang Feng had borne a Top-tier Law.
At this moment, outside the Land of Laws of the Spirit Fusion Lineage, besides Changfeng Old Ancestor, Great Experts from various lineages had also arrived.
Changfeng Old Ancestor had not notified these Great Experts, but these Great Experts had their own means and knew that Ji Qing had arrived at the Land of Laws of the Spirit Fusion Lineage.
And what else would Ji Qing do by coming to the Land of Laws?
Naturally, it was to bear a law and advance to the Nirvana Realm!
This was a major event for the entire Thirteen Meridians of Purgatory.
In some ways, it was even more important than the Thirteen Lineage Masters being trapped in a Restricted Area.
“Greetings, Old Ancestor.”
The Great Experts all paid their respects to Changfeng Old Ancestor.
Changfeng Old Ancestor glanced at the many Great Experts and frowned.
But since they were here, he wouldn’t turn them away.
After all, the Thirteen Meridians of Purgatory were currently in a state of panic.
If Ji Qing could successfully break through to the Nirvana Realm, it would also bring stability to the people’s hearts.
“Since you are here to observe, then observe properly and do not disturb Ji Qing.”
“Yes, Old Ancestor.”
These Great Experts kept their distance, absolutely ensuring they wouldn’t affect Ji Qing.
Watching Ji Qing sit cross-legged within the Land of Laws, many Great Experts had complex expressions.
Once Ji Qing successfully broke through to the Nirvana Realm, he would truly be a Great Expert, just like them.
Moreover, Ji Qing’s strength would undoubtedly undergo a qualitative leap by then.
It was unimaginable how much he could improve.
“Given Ji Qing’s talent, if he were to bear a law, he would surely bear a Supreme Law, right?”
“That’s for sure. A Supreme Law… I also thought about bearing a Supreme Law back then, but ultimately I gave up.”
“It’s just that I wonder how many portions of Supreme Law power Ji Qing can bear?”
In reality, the Great Experts had no doubts about Ji Qing’s talent.
They felt that Ji Qing bearing a Supreme Law was a natural progression.
What they were concerned about now was how many portions of Supreme Law power Ji Qing could bear?
This related to Ji Qing’s strength improvement.
Inside the Land of Laws, Ji Qing did not have too many thoughts.
After adjusting his state, he did not hesitate at all.
Ji Qing headed directly towards that Supreme Law, his consciousness giving a sudden shock.
“Boom.”
Ji Qing received this Supreme Law, and instantly, one portion of Law Power descended.
“Hum.”
Ji Qing’s Myriad Fusion Meridian instantly materialized.
The Dharma Aspect contained the Annihilation of Ten Thousand Laws Supernatural Power.
The moment this portion of Supreme Law Power entered the Myriad Fusion Meridian, Ji Qing felt the Myriad Fusion Meridian become heavy.
It was too heavy!
It felt as if it would crush his Myriad Fusion Meridian.
It was then that Ji Qing finally understood why many people only bore one law.
Every cultivator knew in their heart whether their Divine Abilities and Dharma Aspects could bear more laws.
As this portion of Destruction Law Power descended into the Myriad Fusion Meridian’s Supreme Dharma Idol.
Ji Qing felt his Supreme Dharma Idol become very heavy.
But it did not feel like it would collapse.
He seemed to feel that it could still hold on.
Moreover, as the Law Power began to gradually merge with the Annihilation of Ten Thousand Laws Supernatural Power, the heavy feeling also began to lessen.
Simultaneously, the gradual fusion of the Divine Ability, Dharma Aspect, and Law Power caused Ji Qing’s life to be sublimated.
He felt that the fusion of the Law, Divine Ability, and Law Power formed a new kind of life.
Ji Qing understood that it was a Law Life!
In the Nirvana Realm, achieving Law Life did not mean abandoning the physical body, nor did the physical body transform.
The physical body did not change.
Instead, the Law, Divine Ability, and Dharma Aspect fused with each other, ultimately forming a completely new life. Even if the physical body was destroyed, this new life could survive and reconstruct the physical body over time.
This was Law Life.
As long as the Dharma Aspect remained intact and the Divine Ability persisted, the Great Expert would be immortal.
This was the characteristic of Law Life.
“It’s done?”
Ji Qing was somewhat confused.
It seemed… too easy.
Yes, it was too easy.
Ji Qing felt that as the Law Power merged with his Divine Ability and Dharma Aspect, the heavy sensation on him gradually disappeared again.
Then what was there to hesitate about?
Continue!
Thus, Ji Qing continued to draw down another portion of Law Power.
After a while, he continued to draw in the power of the third Law.
It continued like this, back and forth.
Four portions, five portions, six portions, seven portions, eight portions…
As Ji Qing drew in more and more Law power, many Great Experts observing from outside the Land of Laws fell silent.
What else was there to say?
They were numb!
Although they knew Ji Qing’s talent was extraordinary, and his ability to bear Law power was certainly not ordinary.
But still, there shouldn’t be this many.
How many portions of Law power had they just seen Ji Qing draw in?
Eight portions?
Ten portions?
They were truly numb.
Those were Supreme Laws.
Each portion of Supreme Law was equivalent to ten thousand portions of Common Law.
Those who could become Great Experts, weren’t they all Heavenly Talents?
But seeing the Supreme Laws Ji Qing bore, no one felt like a Heavenly Talent anymore.
There was no comparison.
Finally, Ji Qing drew in the eleventh portion of Supreme Law power, seeming to have reached his limit.
Only then did the crowd breathe a sigh of relief.
Within the Land of Laws, Ji Qing did indeed stop.
He also felt that the Destruction Law power he could currently bear had reached its limit.
Ji Qing immediately checked his own condition.
Ji Qing: Nirvana Realm
Giant Spirit Race: Second Order (10%)
Grotto-Heaven Small Realm: Minor Accomplishment (30%)
Destruction Law: Supreme Law (Eleven portions of Law power)
Mind: Cocoon Breaking Butterfly (Third Realm First Order)
Ancestral God Bloodline: Creation Ancestor God True Body
Origin Point: 21,236,903,800 points
As expected, the current Ji Qing had already broken through from the Dharma Aspect Realm to the Nirvana Realm.
Ji Qing felt a sense of emotion.
Cultivating for hundreds of years, he had finally become a Great Expert!
He was now a true Great Expert!
Moreover, the fusion of eleven portions of Law power with his Dharma Aspect and Divine Abilities.
had completely transformed Ji Qing into a Law Life.
Even if his physical body were destroyed.
As long as his Divine Abilities and Dharma Aspect were not destroyed, Ji Qing could still reshape his physical body.
And even continue to fight.
However, this point held little significance for Ji Qing.
He had long been Immortal.
His survival abilities far surpassed those of Law Lives.
However, what was more important was that Ji Qing now mastered eleven portions of Destruction power.
This was Supreme Law!
Ji Qing moved his mind.
As he mobilized the power of the Destruction Law.
Instantly, within the Land of Laws, countless Common Laws, Superior Laws, and even Top-tier Laws.
were suppressed.
This was the power of Supreme Law!
As long as it was a Destruction Law, it would definitely be suppressed by Ji Qing’s Supreme Law.
When Ji Qing walked out of the Land of Laws.
Eyes converged on him one after another.
“Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Ji, on your Promotion to Nirvana!”
The current Ji Qing could truly be their “Fellow Daoist.”
They could interact as equals.
Unlike before, when he was merely strong in combat power.
“Ji Qing, eleven portions of Destruction Law power… could you let this old man witness it?”
Changfeng Old Ancestor suddenly asked.
Regarding Ji Qing’s Strength, Changfeng Old Ancestor already had some understanding.
Ji Qing’s various strengths might indeed be comparable to a Saint Venerable.
But this time, he wasn’t trying to compete for superiority with Ji Qing.
He just wanted to experience the might of eleven portions of Supreme Law power.
“Good.”
Ji Qing agreed.
Moreover, he was also very curious about “Saint Venerable.”
Although he felt his Strength should be comparable to a Saint Venerable.
he had never truly fought against a Saint Venerable and was unclear.
Now that Changfeng Old Ancestor had taken the initiative to suggest a “Sparring,” it was naturally for the best.
As for the other Great Experts, their eyes lit up.
Ji Qing sparring with the Old Ancestor was a rare opportunity.
They naturally did not want to miss it.
“Let’s do it here.”
Changfeng Old Ancestor only wanted to experience the Might of eleven portions of Supreme Law power.
It wouldn’t cause too much of a disturbance.
“Old Ancestor, be careful.”
Ji Qing said, and moved his mind.
“Boom.”
Ji Qing unleashed the Myriad Fusion Meridian Dharma Aspect.
The Myriad Fusion Meridian Dharma Aspect had now turned pure black.
It was like a Black Hole.
Terrifying annihilation power swept towards Changfeng Old Ancestor like a flood.
Moreover, this annihilation power had merged with the Destruction Law power.
Its Might had increased countless times.
Wherever it passed, the Void was silently annihilated.
Not even a sound was made.
It was silent annihilation.
But this silence made everyone present feel a sense of dread.
Especially the Great Experts, even from afar, they felt a sense of trepidation.
They knew that if they faced this attack from Ji Qing, they would definitely not be able to block it.
No matter how many Great Experts there were, it would be useless.
This power had clearly surpassed the level of the Nirvana Realm.
Even Changfeng Old Ancestor’s eyes lit up at this moment.
He immediately unleashed his Dharma Aspect as well.
Fortunately, he was not bearing the Destruction Law.
Otherwise, he would definitely be suppressed by Ji Qing.
But even without suppression, the aura of Supreme Law still made Changfeng Old Ancestor feel pressure.
He unleashed his Law power and Divine Ability power with all his might, and fiercely collided with Ji Qing’s power.
There was a distinct difference between Changfeng Old Ancestor’s Law power and Divine Ability power, and Ji Qing’s power.
That was Calamity Qi!
It carried a distinct Calamity Qi.
This Calamity Qi was special; it represented that a “Saint Venerable” had undergone Tribulation Crossing.
It was the most unique characteristic of a Saint Venerable.
As the two forces of Law power collided.
There was no earth-shattering impact.
Everyone watched clearly.
Ji Qing’s Law power only paused slightly, then, with an overwhelming force, annihilated Changfeng Old Ancestor’s Law power.
In the blink of an eye, Changfeng Old Ancestor’s Law power was completely annihilated.
Only Ji Qing’s Destruction Law and annihilation power remained in the Void.
“What?”
“The Old Ancestor… lost already?”
“The Old Ancestor is a true Saint Venerable, although he hasn’t undergone many tribulations, he is an One Tribulation Saint Venerable, having passed one Lightning Tribulation. Both his Laws and Divine Abilities have completely transformed, yet he still couldn’t defeat the Law power Ji Qing just bore?”
“Supreme Law, and eleven portions of Supreme Law at that, it’s simply too terrifying. Even a Saint Venerable is completely powerless against such terrifying Law power.”
Changfeng Old Ancestor looked at Ji Qing.
After a long while, he sighed and said, “Supreme Law, it lives up to its name! This old man admits defeat…”
“Ji Qing, if you go to the Nirvana Forbidden Zone with your current Strength, this old man can rest assured!”
It turned out that Changfeng Old Ancestor insisted on witnessing Ji Qing’s Supreme Law power to gauge Ji Qing’s Strength and see if Ji Qing was capable of going to the Nirvana Forbidden Zone.
Now it seemed, Ji Qing could go to the Nirvana Forbidden Zone.
Even if he encountered any danger, with Ji Qing’s current Strength, he could handle it with ease.
“Go to the Nirvana Forbidden Zone?”
Ji Qing shook his head.
“There are still two more Supreme Laws; this disciple needs to prepare more thoroughly.”
Ji Qing was more cautious than anyone.
“…”
The crowd fell silent.
Ji Qing is still coming?
But thinking of Ji Qing’s Talent.
the crowd felt relieved.
Forget it, with such a “monstrous talent,” there’s no point in comparing.
They wanted to see how Ji Qing would bear the other two Supreme Laws?
