"Borrowing your power?"
Li Jing paused, speaking with interest.
"To use your power, do I need to pray to you like an ordinary believer?"
"Of course not."
Wina shook her head, replied.
"Master just needs to call by my true na, no need to pray."
"I understand."
Li Jing responded, accepting the God Soul Brand.
Once the brand entered his hand, it imdiately rged into his palm.
Following that,
he clearly felt a certain indescribable connection had ford between him and Wina.
This connection was very strong.
Even if they were in different spaces, he could summon Wina’s will.
Having experienced this, Li Jing was sowhat surprised.
This, without a doubt, was a powerful trump card!
Although Wina seed submissive to him, and he himself controlled space laws, the latter’s god-like realm of strength was real.
What’s more crucial is,
through Wina’s God Soul Brand, Li Jing could summon her will directly.
He didn’t need to simulate holy power using Smoke Eye’s strength and pray as he had to when casting the Supre God Incantation beforehand.
Summoning Wina’s will not only does not need these, but it is also completely instantaneous.
This mark is extraordinary.
Having received Wina’s God Soul Brand, Li Jing spoke up.
"Help out one last ti, give so of your blood."
"Blood?"
Wina slightly paused, then understood and slashed her wrist.
Without Li Jing acting, she extended her other hand with a light touch.
Golden divine blood dripping from her wrist was swallowed by space and poured at the roots of the Consonance Heart planted at the foot of Canglong Mountain.
Wina could recognize the Tree of Life and naturally knew what this kind of treasure needed to grow.
Receiving the watering of the supre divine blood, the Consonance Heart instantly swelled a great deal, as if it had been injected with a hormone, and quickly grew from a sapling into a towering tree.
With that,
The Earth Realm inside the Little Universe increased by a geotric multiple, increasing by at least thirty tis.
Such a territorial expansion shocked Li Jing.
Wina, having achieved supremacy, possesses divinity that is extrely high.
Using her blood to water the Consonance Heart, its growth could not be poor.
But he did not expect the change to be so great.
Although there has been corresponding multiples of growth before, the present Little Universe is no longer the small plot it was before!
An increase in Earth Realm by at least thirty tis, it has inflated the territory of the entire Little Universe to approximately the equivalent of more than forty Longyu.
Longyu has always been known for its vastness.
More than forty Longyu, this can be compared to more than half the land area of Blue Star!
The large increase in the Earth Realm, shows not simply land, but also ocean.
Sea.
Li Jing’s Little Universe originally did not have this.
Even though he, as the creator, has the ability to change the landscape, the ocean is not sothing he can create at will.
The appearance of the ocean ans that the rules of the sea have been completed.
After the ocean,
Beaches quietly appeared.
Followed by the evolution of life rules related to marine life, a variety of fish appeared in the ocean, and even so strange sea beasts erged.
Feeling the various changes brought about by the further growth of the Consonance Heart, Li Jing understood.
The Little Universe has, it can be said, completed the initial evolution.
Speaking of becoming its own heaven and earth, it’s not there yet.
But it is not far from being truly complete.
What remains, is only the awakening of the Will of Heaven.
This is not a change that further growth of the Consonance Heart can bring about.
The reason why the Will of Heaven has not awakened is not because of other reasons, but because the number of rules present in the Little Universe does not yet et the minimum requirent for its complete evolution.
There are now two choices.
One, wait for the unawakened Will of Heaven to evolve on its own.
Two, bring in as many things as possible that the Little Universe does not have, and gather so special rules to make up the numbers.
Given a choice, Li Jing would definitely choose the second option.
There is nothing to discuss.
Waiting for the unawakened Will of Heaven to evolve on its own, who knows how long you would have to wait.
It is more efficient for him to bring back so special things.
There are still many missing fundantal rules in the Little Universe.
This is not a problem.
As long as the Will of Heaven awakens, the "programming" of the Little Universe is initially completed.
With the main program, is there still fear that the missing elents can’t be fixed?
...
Hanging on to the privileges of the creator, Li Jing modified so of the landscapes in the newly opened territories that he was not satisfied with, and exited the Little Universe with Wina.
The mont the two returned to Heavenly Saint Land, the color of the sky and the earth changed.
The rules of divine punishnt were triggered.
This ti was different from the past.
Transford into a Supre Being, Wina is no longer allowed to appear in the Heavenly Saint Land.
Even if she had sealed most of her power before coming out and maintained her level at the Eighth Realm, she could not fool the guards.
Supre power, is too strong.
While it is hard to truly hide, it also poses a great threat to the entire Heavenly Saint Land.
Seeing that the divine punishnt is about to co, Wina did not dare to delay, and gave Li Jing a faint smile.
"Master, I hope to et you in the Supre God Domain in the near future."
When she spoke, Wina took a step and disappeared between heaven and earth.
This move made Li Jing sowhat green with envy.
With the sa rule that controls space, Wina, who has achieved supremacy, has remarkable authority over space.
I’m afraid even if he steps into the sa realm as Wina, he won’t be able to manipulate it as easily.
There’s nothing to say about that.
Gods are truly a convenient existence.
After Wina departed, Li Jing did not linger in place for long.
With a casual slap, he shattered the surrounding space and stepped in.
The next second.
Li Jing appeared within the Heavenly King Group’s camp near Da Xia Imperial City.
Before he had a chance to settle, he found that all the mbers of the Heavenly King Group had returned.
Over ten thousand people were scattered throughout the camp, each taking a rest.
Looking at their weary faces, it seed they had just returned not long ago.
Seeing the smiles on many of their faces, it appeared they had made good gains on the Southern Barbarian Continent.
The sudden arrival of Li Jing imdiately drew the attention of the mbers of the Heavenly King Group.
The mbers who were resting and chatting around the camp, hurriedly got up and saluted when they saw him.
Seeing this, Li Jing smiled and waved, signaling them to relax. Then he turned and entered the central tent.
With his strong Ninth Realm perception, he could easily confirm that Jiu Li was in the tent.
Just after entering the tent, he saw Jiu Li holding a drawing board and sketching sothing.
Noticing soone entering the tent, Jiu Li clicked her tongue.
"Did I not say not to disturb if there is nothing..."
Halfway through her sentence, she looked up and saw Li Jing. She was montarily surprised, then she burst into a smile.
Seeing this, Li Jing smiled knowingly and took a good look at her.
Jiu Li was now in the Seventh Realm.
Furthermore.
The health bar value above her head had reached 10096.
This suggested she was in the later stage of the Seventh Realm.
It was apparent.
On their trip to the Southern Barbarian Continent, Jiu Li not only survived the tribulation but also achieved excellent personal gains.
Li Jing smiled and complinted her.
"Congratulations on successfully entering the Seventh Realm."
"Lucky for , I wasn’t struck dead."
Jiu Li said with delight, put down her brush, and asked.
"I’ve been back for almost three hours. I tried contacting you earlier but couldn’t get through. When did you get back?"
"Just now."
Li Jing smiled and said.
"From what I can see, the Heavenly King Group doesn’t seem to have suffered many losses. The atmosphere in the camp is also relaxed, it seems you guys have made quite a good gain from the Southern Barbarian Continent?"
"Yes, the gains were good, but there were a lot of dangers on the way."
Jiu Li responded, "And it was thanks to the Forbidden Skill talisman you gave in advance, that this trip went sowhat smoothly."
As she said this, she showed him the drawing on her board.
The drawing was of an enormous beast that stood between heaven and earth, thundering openly among mountains. A slender silhouette with nine fox tails leading thousands of people in the sky, standing off the beast directly.
Upon seeing this scene, Li Jing looked odd.
"This giant beast that you’ve drawn..."
"It’s a ferocious Kirin-like creature at the peak of the Seventh Realm."
Jiu Li explained.
"I’m not sure if it can be considered a Kirin. In our mythology, Kirin is a divine, auspicious beast. However, this beast only had an aura of decay and evil. Moreover, it was terribly afraid of being struck by thunder due to your Forbidden Skill talisman, which is clearly not a good on."
After her long explanation, Jiu Li narrated the whole story to Li Jing.
Jiu Li had led the team to the Southern Barbarian Continent and interacted with the local human tribes. Their interactions were quite pleasant, and nurous trades were completed. She learned from communication with the locals that a treasure was hidden deep in the Southern Barbarian Continent and was guarded by an old, extrely evil Black Kirin.
The Black Kirin ate humans and was very domineering, demanding live humans as tributes from the native tribes for peace. After careful preparation, Jiu Li ascended to the Seventh Realm, led the team through fierce battles, and successfully killed the Black Kirin. They obtained a large number of spirit dicines and the entire body of the Black Kirin from the hidden treasure.
The reason Jiu Li was in the latter stage of the Seventh Realm was because she gained benefits from consuming the flesh and blood of the Black Kirin.
The Black Kirin was indeed a legendary divine beast.
Its flesh and blood were extraordinarily beneficial and even awakened a hint of a nine-tailed bloodline in Jiu Li.
As a Thousand-faced Demon Fox, Jiu Li originally had nine tails.
But she wasn’t a genuine nine-tailed fox in the true sense.
The genuine nine-tailed fox is a divine beast in mythology.
Considering Jiu Li’s strange explanation, Li Jing decided to confirm it by using his Eye of True Vision.
As he looked.
He indeed detected a hint of divinity in Jiu Li’s body, and this hint of divinity was slowly growing.
Although the growth was slow, it was clear that the foundation was established.
According to this trend, Jiu Li would eventually turn into the legendary divine beast, the Nine-tailed Fox.
Jiu Li’s encounter was truly exceptional.
The aberrant beast she encountered was likely either a Kirin or the descendant of a divine beast, otherwise she wouldn’t have undergone such a transformation.
Besides.
What she encountered was a beast that was about to die of old age, severely weakened, and only at the peak of the Seventh Realm.
It was casually killed by her.
Examining Jiu Li, Li Jing asked.
"Do you have any surplus Kirin at?"
"Of course, so is left over."
Jiu Li laughed, then gave him a playful glance and teased.
"Don’t worry, Ayu is my good sister. I have already saved a portion for her. There’s no need for a boyfriend like you to worry."
She took out about a hundred pounds of black at overflowing with rich spiritual Qi.
"Here, this is for Ayu."
Li Jing laughed in response to her teasing and collected the at saying.
"Give another hundred pounds, I have a monster friend who might also need this."
Jiu Li frowned at his request.
"That Kirin was not only old but also as skinny as a skeleton, there wasn’t much at on it. And because it had transford, its actual body wasn’t that big to begin with. So, there’s not much at left."
Despite her words, she did not hesitate to take out another hundred pounds of at.
As she said.
There wasn’t much at on that Kirin.
These hundred pounds were barely any lean at, almost all were just scraps.
This didn’t bother Li Jing.
He wasn’t the one who was going to eat it anyway, and he wouldn’t be the one gnawing on the bones.
After taking the at, Li Jing grabbed Jiu Li’s hand.
?
Suddenly being grabbed, Jiu Li gave off a surprised look.
"Don’t resist, I’m taking you sowhere."
Li Jing smiled, and then led her into the Little Universe with his thoughts, arriving at the location of the Heritage Stele in the Qingyuan Fairy Palace.
Jiu Li had never been in the Little Universe before.
Upon stepping in and finding herself in a seemingly boundless space, she was montarily stunned.
She was further taken aback when she saw around her three light cocoons that emitted exceptionally strong auras, as well as Linglong, other Spirit Weapons, and Ya’er seated in a ditative pose.
"Li Jing, where is this...?" she asked in astonishnt.
Before she could finish her sentence, a loud rumble echoed from the high heaven above.
Jiu Li’s whole body trembled as a weak trace of Divine Beast’s bloodline within her rapidly grew, instantly reaching a level comparable to the elderly Kirin she had battered to death with the Heavenly King Group.
???
Jiu Li.
She hadn’t even understood what was going on with this place, yet in the blink of an eye, her bloodline had been purified to such an extent.
The bloodline purification had brought her significant benefits.
Although it didn’t increase her strength, it made her physical body nearly twice as robust and released an invisible pressuring aura around her.
This intimidated the creatures inhabiting the Little Universe into trembling, and even Ya’er, who was in the process of evolving into a Superior God, was considerably affected and appeared to awaken from her pale-faced unconscious state.
Li Jing was sowhat taken aback when he walked in.
He rely brought Jiu Li in to absorb the God Patterns, but he wasn’t expecting such a turn of events.
He hadn’t paid any attention to the trace amount of Divine Beast’s bloodline within Jiu Li.
Yet unexpectedly, Jiu Li’s arrival caused the rules that could give birth to Divine Beasts to erge in the Little Universe.
And that wasn’t all.
Through the Original Fortune, the bloodline within Jiu Li was rapidly purified to such a degree that he too felt a bit pressured.
Seeing that the effect on Ya’er was significant, Li Jing, without giving it a second thought, hurriedly spoke up.
"Big sister, you need to restrain your bloodline’s aura."
Jiu Li, although bewildered, wasn’t blind.
She knew that she was affecting the little girl next to her who was engrossed in digesting sothing. She hurriedly focused her mind to suppress her own aura.
The mont her bloodline’s aura was restrained, Ya’er was instantly no longer affected.
Just as Ya’er was about to ask what was happening, Li Jing stuffed a set of Superior God Patterns into her arms and casually picked up Lingling, who was "playing dead" hanging from a branch of the Consonance Heart, and brought her over.
???
Lingling was full of question marks having been suddenly brought over.
"I need your help."
Li Jing gave her a smile.
"..."
Lingling.
She felt like a tool that couldn’t even sleep peacefully.
Nevertheless, she didn’t have any complaints.
The Consonance Heart had recently grown further and was now nearly fully mature, so it could bring her even greater benefits.
Rather than worrying about these things, it was better to finish the task at hand and then continue sleeping.
Without any further ado, Lingling pointed a finger at Jiu Li, who was holding dozens of God Patterns in her arms, and dissolved a Lower God pattern.
As the God pattern dissolved, it imdiately rged into Jiu Li’s body.
Jiu Li stiffened at this, a revelation surfaced in her mind and she imdiately sat down in a ditative pose.
Just as she was about to start digesting it, Li Jing spoke up.
"These god patterns need to be absorbed from the lowest to the highest level in an orderly manner. The managent of the Heavenly King Group outside will be handed over to soone else, so you don’t need to worry about it."
Jiu Li nodded at hearing and closed his eyes in concentration.
After arranging Jiu Li, Li Jing sent Ling Ling back and then left the Little Universe.
...
Returning to the Heavenly Saint Land again.
Li Jing found Tong Gaojie and Jiang Wenqian in the Heavenly King Group camp, instructed both of them to be in charge of the Heavenly King Group, and then left, activating the Silent Shadow to take a look at the not-so-distant Da Xia Imperial City.
After more than a month of settling ti.
Da Xia Imperial City not only once again thrived, but was even better than before.
The Imperial Palace had been reconstructed.
In the streets and alleys, so modern equipnt of the mundane world were in use everywhere.
They even built a spiritual energy center in a corner of the Imperial City to power the modern equipnt.
Looking at this scenario.
The cooperation between Xia Qianqian and the various forces of the mundane world seems to have been very smooth. Everything that could be arranged was put in place, and there was even a trend to keep up with the scientific developnt of the mundane world.
Of course.
It was absolutely impossible to transform an ancient civilization’s imperial dynasty into a modern city in just over a month.
The ones that had changed were also just the Da Xia Imperial City.
How vast is the territory of Da Xia, right?
As long as Xia Qianqian can get enough knowledge and equipnt from the mundane world, changing the whole Da Xia is just a matter of ti.
After all, the scientific civilization of the mundane world was extrely mature.
With equipnt and relevant knowledge, people will eventually penetrate modern science sooner or later, at which point the transformation into a modern society won’t be difficult.
After briefly observing the changes in Da Xia Imperial City, Li Jing located Tongyan, who was supervising the construction of a modern hospital, using his powerful Primordial Spirit.
Without warning, using the rule of space, Li Jing appeared next to Tongyan, then cancelled the Silent Shadow on her alone.
Horrified by the sudden appearance of a person next to her, Tongyan jolted with shock.
Seeing it was Li Jing, she patted her heaving chest and spoke without words.
"Counselor Li, do you know it’s scary to startle soone?"
Li Jing smirked at her words.
In the Sixth Realm, who would actually get scared to death?
Shaking his head with a smile, Li Jing inquired.
"Where’s your senior sister and Qi Chen? Why don’t I feel their presence in the Imperial City?"
"Brother Qi Chen has gone back to the mundane world early in the morning, he serves as the bridge for communication between the Secret Realm and the outside world. He is responsible for dispatching Longyu’s manpower and resources to assist Da Xia."
Tong Yan replied, adding.
"Senior sister is not in the Imperial City at the mont, our cooperation with Da Xia is nearing its end. In addition to this Imperial City, there are also agreents between Longyu and Da Xia to assist in the reconstruction of nearby cities. There’s a lot of profit to be made from this, but it’s also easy to make mistakes, so Senior Sister is personally supervising it over there."
After saying these, she blinked her beautiful eyes in confusion.
"She might be back later in the evening, do you need sothing from her?"
"Nothing major, just wanted to check in."
Li Jing casually replied, saying.
"Since she’s not here, you can pass on the ssage for . The situation in the Heavenly Saint Land is almost over, and the Secret Realm Passage can only hold out for about a week. I’m leaving first. Yini has gained quite a bit from exploring the Secret Realm with , and I’m taking her with . Can you guys help to watch over things at the Heavenly King group’s side?"
Bearing Li Jing’s words, Tongyan nodded in acknowledgent.
She was quite familiar with this person.
She knew exactly what kind of person Li Jing was.
Although he was reliable, he was a professional of laissez-faire.
After leaving instructions for Tongyan, Li Jing didn’t linger and punched through the void next to him and walked into it.
Seeing this, Tongyan was surprised and her mouth ford an ’O’ shape.
The punch shattered space.
Is Li Jing...?
still human?
What is his current cultivation level?
Just as Tongyan was taken aback, Li Jing crossed through space to appear at the secret realm entrance, stepping into it.
Through spatial displacent, he returned to the present world.
Just as he stepped out from the secret realm entrance, before he could fully comprehend his surroundings, the world suddenly plunged into utter darkness.
Li Jing hesitated for a mont, furrowed his brows and looked up.
He was quite familiar with this situation.
Heavenly Punishnt.
So
Why is there another Heavenly Punishnt targeting him?
After his last incident at the Chongyuan Holy Realm, the Big World’s Heavenly Taoist should not have "the noble often forget" problem. Especially considering that back then, he had left a trace of Heavenly Path Qi in his body.
The Heavenly Punishnt was imminent.
It frightened the personnel of various forces stationed near the secret realm entrance.
Just as they were trembling, the world quietly returned to its usual brightness.
Seeing this, Li Jing blinked.
Is it...
over?
Just as he was thinking this, he suddenly felt sothing and looked to his side.
In his view, a beautiful woman with a red lotus mark on her brow furrowed her brows at him.
eting the woman’s gaze, Li Jing beca stiff all over.
At first glance of this woman, he knew that she was the Big World’s Heavenly Taoist.
After all, they had "fought" together before, just a face-to-face reunion brought him a strong sense of familiarity.
The Big World’s Heavenly Taoist was a woman...
Just as he was astonished by this, the woman’s red lips moved slightly.
"What a surprise, during my absence, you’ve grown to this extent, even your body has..."
She stopped halfway through her sentence and put on a delicately elegant smile.
"I did not misjudge you. But Blue Star can no longer accommodate you, this land cannot bear your power. You have one year to choose a day to ascend. Within this year, you may not use power beyond the Ninth Realm."
With that said, her figure dissipated as if she had never co.
Seeing her leaving after only speaking a few words to him, not even giving him a chance to reply, Li Jing was frowning even more.
The appearance of the Big World’s Heavenly Taoist surprised him.
The words she spoke carried a lot of information.
Blue Star could no longer accommodate him.
He needed to leave.
Through the words of the Heavenly Taoist, he heard a term that had rely been a joke among cultivators on the Orthodox Immortality Path, Ascend.
Ascend in daylight.
This has always been a theory in the Orthodox Immortality Path.
Ascension ans becoming immortal.
But from ancient tis to the present, there is no record of anyone ever ascending to beco immortal.
There are "immortals" in the world, indeed there are so near-mythical legends.
So, here’s the question.
The Big World’s Heavenly Taoist wants him to choose a day to ascend, but how can he ascend?
He doesn’t know how!
And then, where does he ascend to?
The Immortal Realm?
Does the Immortal Realm really exist in this world?
Just as he was at a complete loss, a golden command token quietly appeared before his eyes.
Seeing this, Li Jing was stunned.
He knew this token very well.
It was the Immortal King Command.
Yes!
It was the Immortal King Command!
Exactly like the one Chen Jing gave him as a proof to learn Forbidden Skills.
There was no doubt that the Immortal King Command appeared in front of him because the Big World’s Heavenly Taoist gave it to him.
Therefore,
Was the ascension done through the Immortal King Command?
Li Jing held doubts in his heart, he reached out to accept the token.
The mont he touched the Immortal King Command, enlightennt naturally surfaced in his mind.
Through this token, he could open a passage to the Lower Immortal Realm in the Upper Three Realms.
There,
were better resources for cultivation.
While refining Qi, instead of absorbing Heavenly and Earthly Spiritual Energy, one would absorb the breath of an immortal spirit.
There,
human civilization still existed, along with many powerful dynasties, but there were no "immortals".
At most, it was a more expansive domain compared to Blue Star where cultivators could achieve higher accomplishnts.
Experiencing the enlightennt, Li Jing furrowed his brows.
The enlightennt brought by the Immortal King Command was relatively limited.
The ins and outs of the Immortal Realm were not that detailed.
One thing that was certain though,
Once he left, he could not return.
Putting all this aside,
The appearance of the Big World’s Heavenly Taoist and the Immortal King Command, made it clear to him why there were no Ninth Realm beings in Blue Star.
Those other Ninth Realm beings, like him, were probably all asked to "choose a day to ascend."
But their "treatnt" might not be as good as his, the Big World’s Heavenly Taoist personally delivered the token to him.
The Immortal King Command itself had been circulating in the Big World, who exactly had these he was unsure.
But obviously,
As a credential to open the way to the Immortal Realm, the Immortal King Command served as a pathway to ascend to a higher level for those who have reached the Ninth Realm.
Once they reached the Ninth Realm, they would naturally seek it out.
One year, huh?
The ti was a bit short and there were quite a few matters to arrange.
Li Jing looked up to the sky, with a single thought he tore through space and quietly left.
