Cultivating with Top Enlightenment

Chapter 998 - 430: New and Old Followers

Ning Qi enfeoffed the Vast Realm Will as the Spirit of Education of the True Martial Spirit Realm, and the Mountain and Sea Realm Will as the Mountain and Sea Spirit, arranging a place for the former two great spiritual realm wills.

Having suddenly lost their former status as Realm Venerables, they should have felt very uncomfortable, as their identity changed to being spirits under Ning Qi’s command.

However, Ning Qi did not notice any displeasure on their faces, instead seeing a hint of joy.

The Mountain and Sea Realm Will had been sealed by the Mountain Ancestor for countless millennia, always a prisoner, with its energy either devoured by the Seed of Jianmu or stolen by the Mountain Ancestor.

Now, having regained freedom, how could it not be joyful?

And the Vast Realm Will, likewise felt a sense of relief and liberation.

As spiritual realm wills, they were not as relaxed as imagined, needing to constantly maintain the operation of the spiritual realms, repair the realms, and resist the erosion of the Sea of Realms.

Moreover, they were restricted by the realms themselves, unable to depart from them.

Now, they have been freed from the material shackles of the spiritual realms.

Suddenly, Ning Qi pointed a finger.

Two seven-colored light spheres instantly shot out from his fingertip and drilled into the foreheads of the two spirits.

The Mountain and Sea Spirit and Zhili’s spirit bodies stiffened for a moment, silently absorbing the seven-colored light.

Moments later, they regained their senses, looked at each other, and could see the same shocked and excited expressions in each other’s eyes.

"Realm Venerable, can we really be free from all restraints?"

Zhili scratched his head and asked somewhat uncertainly.

Although the Mountain and Sea Spirit didn’t speak, it clearly had the same thought.

Ning Qi nodded and responded:

"It’s impossible for you to be completely free from constraints, you are born relying on the world, and now in my True Martial Spirit Realm, you still have to depend on something, which is why I enfeoffed you."

"The seven-colored light earlier is some insights from my own cultivation, which can allow you to condense a tangible body to gain freedom through an avatar."

The two spirits were extremely excited upon hearing this and expressed their gratitude repeatedly.

Nearby, the Saint Ancestor’s avatar looked at Ning Qi, clicked his tongue, and said, "Ning, how do you plan to arrange me?"

Ning Qi smiled and said, "You love poetry and painting; why don’t you join Zhili in helping me educate the beings of the True Martial Spirit Realm? I believe you can definitely fulfill your desire to teach in the True Martial Spirit Realm."

"However, all of this depends on whether your main body survives."

Upon hearing this, the Saint Ancestor’s avatar glanced at the shadow of Buzhou Mountain outside, still feeling a bit worried and said:

"Kid, are you confident you can defeat the Mountain Ancestor now?"

His expression was a bit conflicted, looking like he had words he wanted to say but hesitated.

Ning Qi replied calmly, "Who knows? The real result will only be known once it’s done."

The Saint Ancestor’s avatar withdrew his gaze and said softly, "Even if you can’t win, it doesn’t matter. I have other plans; if necessary, as the Three Realms merge, you should be able to commandeer the True Martial Spirit Realm to leave this realm, which isn’t a bad choice."

Ning Qi narrowed his eyes, "We’ll talk about it when the time comes."

Escape was not his style, especially since the Ancient Road Sacred Map, stolen by the Mountain Ancestor, was something Ning Qi still wished to obtain.

Moreover, the shadow of Buzhou Mountain summoned by the Mountain Ancestor, given the scenario Ning Qi observed through the World Heaven Heart Selfless Realm, might unexpectedly change once events unfold.

"Alright, I’ll linger for a moment longer, then proceed to deal with the troublesome Mountain Ancestor. If you have no other matters, you can help me soothe the beings migrating from your two realms."

Ning Qi waved his hand, and they instantly departed from the Inner World.

The Saint Ancestor’s avatar and the Mountain and Sea Spirit, Zhili, followed his instructions, going off to comfort the beings from the two realms.

Above the True Martial Spirit Realm, within the only floating giant Immortal Sect.

Since the integration of the Three Realms, Ning Qi not only incorporated the Profound Truth Realm into the True Martial Immortal Sect but also reconfigured the entire sect.

Now, the True Martial Immortal Sect is akin to the Celestial Court of myth within the True Martial Spirit Realm.

It is both the sect of Ning Qi and exists to uphold celestial authority and maintain order within the True Martial Spirit Realm.

It is also the sect that all beings of the True Martial Realm most aspire to join.

There is already a saying in the Lower Realm, stating "True Martial establishes the Celestial Court, entering its gate is akin to attaining immortality!"

Ning Qi naturally knows this saying too, though he’s unsure who spread such a mystical rumor.

Currently, within the True Martial Immortal Sect, it is already bustling with voices, a lively and exuberant scene.

No surprise, for the cultivators reincarnated by Ning Qi to the Mountain and Sea Realm, and later to the Vast Realm, have all returned to the True Martial Spirit Realm following the integration of the realms.

These individuals were selected by Ning Qi and are among the bravest cultivators in the True Martial Realm.

Of course, most of them are from the True Martial Immortal Sect, while other cultivators from the Lower Realm are waiting for Ning Qi’s arrangements within the sect.

The cultivators reincarnated to the Mountain and Sea Realm are faring well; they had spent over a hundred years in the Mountain and Sea Realm with Ning Qi.

Whereas the cultivators reincarnated to the Vast Realm are still infants.

Unfortunately, Ning Qi only acquired the spatial coordinates of the Immortal Vast Realm before the spiritual warfare began, and reincarnated them there.

But who knew, the warfare from beginning to now, adds up to a mere few months.

If those reincarnated came as anything other than infants, what else could they be?

At this moment, those cultivators continue to appear in infant states at the square of the True Martial Immortal Sect, causing both amusement and helplessness.

Everyone was joking about them.

Someone said, "I say all of you, look at how formidable our True Martial Immortal Sect is; we can even send infants to fight in enemy realms, it’s probably a rare event in all worlds!"
