A Druid Also Can Cultivate

Chapter 526: Chapter 420: Severed Foundation of the Ages (Part 2)

What is the relationship between the Immortal Slaying Flying Knife, also known as the Bronze Flying Knife, and that Immortal?

The mystery is too great.

So great that Qi Ping couldn’t help but feel his scalp tingle!

As a result, he chose to immediately return the Bronze Flying Knife to the box, then chose to seal it up immediately, and even found a place to thoroughly seal it with the strongest array and restrictions, leaving a strand of consciousness to watch over it.

Although this Bronze Flying Knife appears extremely powerful, Qi Ping had no intention of keeping it by his side, as no one knows if this thing would end up consuming him, given that such an existence simply sees him as a delicacy.

Therefore, unless absolutely necessary, Qi Ping would never use it.

After completely sealing the Bronze Flying Knife and the black box, Qi Ping finally breathed a genuine sigh of relief.

It’s definitely more comfortable without something beyond his control around.

...

"This also counts as quite a harvest!"

"The most important thing is finally understanding some mysteries..."

Thinking of the information gathered this time, Qi Ping’s gaze turned somewhat solemn.

One mystery that was finally unraveled is why there are no Mahayana Stage related puzzles on the Star Sea Continent.

It was that mysterious figure composed of countless black lines, the Immortal described in the Immortal Slaying Technique, which with a single strange move of thousands of black lines, directly erased any existence related to Mahayana Stage cultivators on the Star Sea Continent, cultivators, cultivation techniques, magical treasures... nothing was spared.

Except for that Mahayana Stage cultivator hidden in the black box who escaped the calamity.

But escaping was all he did!

Because after that Mahayana Stage Cultivator left the black box, his figure was still being washed away and erased by a powerful force, even after the Bronze Flying Knife obliterated the Immortal composed of black lines, that force of law seemed to still exist.

Otherwise, a Mahayana Stage Cultivator, no matter how exhausted of resources and hope, could not possibly dissipate so completely.

"So... the important question now is whether that Power of Rules erasing Mahayana Stage cultivators still exists?"

Just then, Qi Ping was suddenly startled!

"Where is the blood-stained cloth?"

It seemed he had only stored the sealing of the Bronze Flying Knife just now, and at that moment, appeared to have forgotten that blood-stained torn cloth.

Now it seemed that the cloth was gone!

Thus, Qi Ping immediately used the power of the Earth Immortal Druid to probe for the existence of that piece of cloth; such an item would definitely be unable to escape his search.

But as time ticked by, Qi Ping’s expression gradually became ugly.

Because he couldn’t find any trace of the blood-stained cloth!

"It’s really gone!"

Qi Ping’s expression suddenly turned extremely unpleasant.

"That Power of Rules wiping out everything related to Mahayana Stage cultivators must still exist!"

Otherwise, that blood-stained cloth wouldn’t have disappeared without any reason.

Even Qi Ping’s memory seemed to consciously ignore and forget the existence of the cloth.

"No, I must record the existence of the cloth..."

Thus, Qi Ping began to use the Power of Law to engrave the day’s events onto a hard Profound Gold Stone....

But as Qi Ping began to write, his expression became increasingly ugly, because just as he engraved halfway, all the imprints vanished into thin air, leaving only a pitted Profound Gold Stone....

"What am I engraving?"

Qi Ping suddenly realized that he’d seemingly forgotten something, and also forgot what exactly he was recording.

The only thing he knew now was that he was recording something very important, but now he had forgotten!

"Something related to the Immortal Slaying Flying Knife and the Immortal Slaying Technique, the Immortal, and the rule left by that Immortal to erase any existence related to Mahayana Stage cultivators..."

"There seems to be a gap in memory, something related to the source of the Immortal Slaying Technique...."

"What exactly is it that can erase my memory?"

With an unpleasant expression, Qi Ping immediately began mobilizing his own power.

"All beings under heaven, armor of all beings, protect my true spirit!"

"Earth Immortal Druid... Earth Immortal’s protection!"

"Five-Colored Immortal Light, Immortal Armor protecting the spirit!"

....

Qi Ping used without hesitation all available powers to safeguard his consciousness true spirit, ensuring it was protected at the core.

At this moment, only then did Qi Ping feel that his consciousness was wholly restored to clarity, and the force affecting his memory slowly diminished and disappeared.

"Damn it!"

"The force left by that Immortal made of black lines that erased the Mahayana Stage still exists!"

"But how many years have passed? Is this the power of an Immortal?"

"And as for the part of my memory I forgot, the gap in memory is related to the origin of the Immortal Slaying Technique and the vessel that provided the memory of that battle, which is now gone, along with the significance of its existence, and that black box serves as a vessel that can isolate this weird law force...."

Qi Ping felt deeply serious now; he didn’t expect that a small black box would unravel so many things.

"It seems that the layers of protection on my consciousness true spirit cannot be dispersed, otherwise the remaining memories would also be erased one by one...."

Fortunately, within his Earth Immortal Realm, Qi Ping’s recovery ability is maximized; it’s enough to easily replenish the consumption brought by this protective force. The only troublesome part is that he has to allocate a portion of consciousness to continuously manipulate these forces.

"Well, let’s take it as a power control exercise!"

"Learning about these things is also good, at least it prevents me from being recklessly killed by this force should I break through to Mahayana..."

"So, is this why there have been no Mahayana Stage cultivators appearing or arriving at the Star Sea Continent for so many years? Or they arrived but were instantly erased, so the Star Sea Continent became a forbidden ground for Mahayana Stage cultivators..."

Qi Ping quickly thought of various possibilities.

"However, in the current stage, it might not be a bad thing; I’m still far from breaking through to Mahayana Stage, so with this force wiping out Mahayana Stage, I shouldn’t face enemies of this level anytime soon."

"And if the Demon Race invades, if their power system is similar to Mahayana Stage, would they also be partially erased? This way, even if the descending Demon Race is very strong, without Mahayana Stage-level cultivators, the chances of winning for the Star Sea Continent would greatly increase...."

Qi Ping reckoned that it’s very likely, based on the strength shown by the "Immortal" that appeared in the scene, that even terrifying Demons would have to retreat before him.

"So henceforth, as long as I continue to develop for a while, any beneath Integration and Integration itself wanting to defeat me would have to rely on overwhelming numbers, but traversing the chaotic sea channel, given the circumstances inside, the more beings you bring, the more dangerous it becomes, coupled with the journey which takes years by itself, making it even harder to bring a large number of beings to attack...."

"Thus, this force has actually become our Star Sea Continent’s amulet!"

Qi Ping did not expect that this force, which severed the foundation of the Mahayana, would actually become the amulet for the Star Sea Continent!

Without a great amount of high-end power, in middle-high-level warfare, he wasn’t too intimidated.

Although the Nine Star Sea Realms don’t have much middle-high-end combat power, whether it’s the Cyan Divine Army or the continuously blasting Golden Marrow Bees, both are powerful enough to sweep over the same level, achieving victory with fewer numbers.

Both the Cyan Divine Army and the Golden Marrow Bee are forces that even left Qi Ping feeling shocked.

Therefore, considering this, Qi Ping temporarily stopped rejecting the Power of Rules wiping out Mahayana, since any power usable at the current stage is a good power.

As for the issue of breaking through to the Mahayana Stage, it can be dealt with when the time comes.

Qi Ping believes that when he reaches the peak of the Integration Stage, both the foundations he possesses and the development of the Star Sea Continent will not be something that can be matched now.

Moreover, by that time, he should have partially opened trade routes across All Heavens and Myriad Realms, allowing him to acquire some delightful items through these routes.

By then, with multiple foundations gathered together, along with the presence of the Bronze Flying Knife, they might be able to solve this problem.

However, if possible, Qi Ping would absolutely not use the Bronze Flying Knife, since it might be an existence even more mysterious than the Immortal....
