Chapter 1727 - 926: Destiny and Unity, United in Purpose
As soon as the words fell, a domineering voice came from beside him: "Because I... do not permit it!"
Zhao Sheng looked toward the voice and saw his second ancestor, Zhao Hongyun, quietly appear by his side.
Zhao Sheng gazed at the second ancestor’s jade-like complexion, revealing a trace of doubt in his eyes, as if asking why?
Zhao Hongyun seemed to understand his thoughts and suddenly waved his large sleeve, saying in a deep voice, "Now... take another look."
The action of the second ancestor waving his sleeve seemed to sweep away a layer of mist that permeated the world.
As the mist gradually dispersed, Zhao Sheng saw that stars of multicolored cloud气 rose suddenly from the vast earth below.
Large and small patches of cloud气 rose slowly, like a sky full of stars under the night curtain, illuminating the surrounding darkness and adding countless brilliant colors to the earth. Their number was hard to estimate.
Zhao Sheng’s heart was shaken, and as he focused again on the land below, he saw that the dense cloud气 were subtly changing once more.
Some cloud气 no more than a zhang in circumference gradually transformed into figures of cattle, horses, pigs, dogs, fish, snakes, swallows, pigeons, and so on.
Those cloud气 with a diameter over one zhang, but less than a hundred zhang, gradually transformed into forms of fierce beasts like lions, tigers, wolves, leopards, eagles, crocodiles, and pythons.
As for the even larger cloud气, they also transformed into various stronger spirit beasts, such as Immortal Cranes, Phoenixes, Vermilion Birds, White Tigers, Wind Thunder Falcons, and other mythical exotic beasts.
A few breaths later, Zhao Sheng quickly saw more "truths."
All cloud气 rising into the sky were the manifestation of the Qi Fortune of cities and lands. The more prosperous a large city, the more grand and colorful its manifested Qi Fortune, and the stronger the beast forms it transformed into.
Zhao Sheng particularly noticed that some powerful Martial Artists could also manifest signs of Qi Fortune above their heads.
However, most took the shape of fierce beasts like wolves, dogs, lions, tigers, bulls, elephants, etc., while only a very few with extremely high cultivation could nurture mythically colored exotic beasts.
Zhao Sheng looked into the distance, seeing countless ancient cities sprawling over hundreds of miles, each with a population exceeding ten million.
These vast cities were the Divine Cities of ancient dynasties. Above each Divine City hovered a Qi Fortune Golden Dragon stretching over a thousand zhang long.
Some Qi Fortune Golden Dragons, though massive, were already decrepit, their bodies showing deficiencies and continuing to blur.
Other Qi Fortune Golden Dragons, full of vigor and vitality, matched perfectly with their newly established dynasty.
"The Grotto Heaven of this self does not permit anyone to become immortal, nor anyone’s destiny to exceed my control. In my Grotto Heaven, a mortal cannot live beyond a hundred years, nor can an Innate Martial Marquis survive beyond sixty years, even a Martial Dao Immortal who cultivates Refining God and Entering the Acupoint can only live up to a thousand years at most."
Zhao Sheng listened intently to the words of the second ancestor and suddenly felt his vision blur.
In the next instant, the two were already above a bustling street a hundred zhang wide, with grand buildings lined up on both sides.
The street was crowded, full of bustling carriages and horses, the air mixed with a thousand kinds of fragrances, neighing horses and shouting vendors interspersed, creating a very lively and bustling scene.
Strangely, amidst the bustling street, not a single person seemed to see them, as if Zhao Sheng and the other did not exist at all.
Zhao Hongyun pointed to the east and said with a smile, "Chonghe, look over there."
Zhao Sheng looked as commanded and suddenly saw an extravagant mansion with red walls and golden tiles, covering an immense area.
Above this mansion, a hundred-zhang long four-clawed Dragon Serpent was vividly hovering, exuding powerful and dignified majesty.
But not far from the Dragon Serpent, a Jiao Python was watching with a tiger’s gaze, though only a few zhang long, clearly showing no fear of the Dragon Serpent’s majesty.
"Qi Fortune transforming into a Dragon Serpent? It seems the mansion’s owner not only comes from the Royal Family but is at least of the rank of a Prince or similar."
While speaking, Zhao Sheng released his Divine Thought, enveloping the mansion and soon fully grasping everything within.
"Second ancestor, this Duke Jing’an is actually an unparalleled Human Immortal about to break through the Void. Also... that illegitimate child named Chen Yi has cultivated quite extraordinary Martial Arts.
The True Martial Dragon Transformation Scripture?! Was this scripture personally created by the second ancestor?"
Zhao Hongyun nodded: "Correct, in the past, to comprehend the differences between Qi Fortune and Destiny, I personally created thirteen Human Immortal Martial Scriptures. The True Martial Dragon Transformation Scripture is one of them.
The Duke Jing’an’s cultivation of the Dragon Whale Devouring Sea Scripture is also a Human Immortal Martial Scripture. However, it is not my creation but the handiwork of the dynasty’s founding ancestor. Chonghe, think again, why did I bring you here?"
Zhao Sheng raised an eyebrow, his gaze once more fell upon the Qi Fortune Dragon Serpent and the ambitious Jiao Python.
In just ten breaths, he understood what the Human Immortal Martial Dao is.
It’s a long story!
In previous lives, he had once advanced his Martial Arts to the Martial Saint Realm.
According to his understanding, Martial Arts could be divided into four major realms: Postnatal, Innate, Divinity, and Martial Saint.
In its early stages, Human Immortal Martial Dao is similar, also having Postnatal and Innate divisions.
However, after Innate, Human Immortal Martial Dao blazes a new trail, treating the human body as a raft in the crossing of the world, through continuous tempering of the flesh, continuously refining and transforming, ultimately elevating the physical body’s strength to a nearly Vajra Body level.
This realm is called the Vajra Realm, also known as the half-step Human Immortal.
After the Vajra Realm, only by seeing the god in the Void and awakening one’s Martial Arts Will can one truly step into the Human Immortal Realm.
