Chapter 138: The Fifth Divine Anomaly, Anomaly World Colonization

"Very good."

Seeing Ji Jingqiu successfully nurture the second divine anomaly, Sui Canghai nodded in approval, not forgetting to add:

"But if you wish to win in the hunt a month from now, you must make the most of your time and strive for perfection, nurturing the [Ten Thousand Phenomena].’"

"The [Ten Thousand Phenomena] paired with [Formlessness] will allow you to truly demonstrate the subtleties of the Formless Dao Body."

Ji Jingqiu caught the key points: "A month from now is the hunt?"

Sui Canghai nodded slightly, "To be precise, it's the relic hunting war. The top scorer will gain a potential slot."

"Relics?? What potential slot?" Ji Jingqiu asked curiously.

"You don't need to know for now; just focus on advancing."

Sui Canghai shook his head and returned to the main topic:

"Your cultivation over the next month should focus on not just forging your power body but also refining the Dao Field embryo, fully developing your strengths to their peak."

"By the way, do you have any ideas about your fourth divine anomaly?"

Sui Canghai inquired.

Ji Jingqiu nodded: "I've had some divine encounters and am currently nurturing it."

Sui Canghai was slightly surprised. Many had been speculating how long Ji Jingqiu would stall at the fourth divine anomaly.

. The more they understood Ji Jingqiu, the more they believed he could open up the fourth divine anomaly. The only contentious point was time.

Seeking a divine anomaly is always arduous, even spending a year is no small feat.Given Ji Jingqiu's age, a year isn't much to him, but it will certainly be a significant milestone this year."

The cultivators at the True Seed Realm have already found the fourth divine anomaly and am currently nurturing it."

Sui Canghai's expression was subtle. This was indeed fast. Did this kid have such a high affinity for [Formless Dao Body] that he could so quickly comprehend the profound truths and find a matching divine anomaly? Four divine anomalies...

Even if the fourth divine anomaly's power and rank may be slightly inferior, it still stands out as a divine anomaly. divine anomalies are divine anomaly. divine anomalies are divine anomalies.

. Following, Sui Canghai briefly inquired about the fourth divine anomaly.

"The fourth divine anomaly is related to the Dao Field embryo."" Jingqiu Dao Field."

"Oh?" Sui Canghai nodded in approval,,"Not bad. The divine anomaly that can aid in further developing the Dao Field embryo is indeed extraordinary, and it aligns well with your path."

Subine your fortune."

Subsequently, Sui Canghai provided his insights on Ji Jingqiu's martial arts path.

"Given your progress you are making, most suitable choice is the divine anomalies like as [Ten Thousand Phenomena], similar to [ other core Dao Body. can mutually achieve the [ anomalies anomalies. Divine anomalies."

Sui Canghai remained for a moment.

This kid is really insightful?

He just read the [Formless Dao Canon]?

It seems that this kid has just made a small breakthrough in comprehending the [Formless Dao Canon], hasn't he?

"Should you wish to further engrave a layer of divine anomaly onto your Dao Body, it would be quite difficult."

Sui Canghai pondered for a moment, then explained,

"The essential limit is actually the quantification of Principle. A layer of divine anomaly is the condensation of Principle. The Principle contained within your Dao Body can only condense up to four layers of divine anomaly. Even with ingenious ideas, you could not gather the Principle required for the fifth layer of divine anomaly."

"However, the difficulty of the Formless Dao Body lies in the fact that it requires more Principle inscriptions from birth than other Dao bodies."

Sui Canghai reflected in his heart,

"Given your current state, it's far from possible to condense the fifth layer of divine anomaly to completion. You need to push your Dao Body to over 99% of its potential, then reverse the congenital inscriptions, and seize the Principle of heaven and earth. Perhaps this could allow for a favorable opportunity to engrave the fifth layer of divine anomaly."

Ji Jingqiu asked, "In about a month's time, I can roughly push my Dao Body to which step?"

"Strive for completion, then after a grand success, the difficulty of the Dao Body will rise again. The closer to perfection, the slower the progress, until the last step is as hard as ascending to heaven."

"I see."

Ji Jingqiu nodded slightly.

approval.

The cultivation is done.

With the personal guidance of Master Sui, there should be no mistakes.

...

...

In a completely confidential meeting room, a long conference table ran across the room's center, with the grand success, engrave the imprint of the Dao Body and then for a while. The two, Doctor Chen and Mu Xian He, exchanged a glance.

The two did not speak, but their gazes collided in the air, as if sparks had splintered.

The sparks contained the rivalry and enmity between the Federation's Ministry of Defense, the Second Research Institute, and the Fourth Research Institute, not just over budget disputes but also over honor disputes.

The elder at the head of the table, the corner of his mouth curled into a faint smile, his face showing a calm and benegnleness after the vicissitudes of life.

He looked at the two "young men" in opposition and said in a gentle tone,

"The situation at the forefront of the Heavenly Path has been very poor in recent years. The Supreme Purity Palace and the Ten Thousand Martial Arts Association are very concerned about you. They believe that continued resistance will eventually be broken, and we need to forge new 'frontlines'."

Chen Haisheng and Mu Xian He exchanged a look.

The Supreme Purity Palace and the Ten Thousand Martial arts Association, two of the three mountains in the forefront of the Heavenly Path, were founded by the Supreme Grandmasters.

Mu Xian He was the first to speak,

"From ancient times to now, the best defense has always been offense!"

The elder nodded in agreement.

"We have already blazed a path, investing more than two dozen Heavenly Man martial artists."

"Oh?" the elder was moved to ask, "that’s rare, then how effective is it?"

"The battle results are quite significant!" At this moment, Mu Xian he's expression was not self-satisfied or joyful but rather solemn as he continued, "But in the exploration process, we discovered that the strength of the opposite side far exceeded our expectations."

The elder's expression became grave, showing a posture of attentive listening.

"According to the reports we have received, we can temporarily confirm that the opposite world is generally divided into nine continental regions, known as the Nine Provinces."

"Nine Provinces?" the elder was slightly lost in thought, softly saying, "This name brings back memories of the ancient planet era."

Mu Xian he was unmoved, having no interest in history or nostalgia for the elder's past, he continued,

"the landing point we chose is the 'Green Province.' Just in terms of territorial area, it is equivalent to more than half of the Federation's territory."

The elder frowned, "Is that including interstellar space?"

"Of course not."

The elder nodded, that would only count the territory of the planets under Federation control. Even if only considering the planets under Federation control, it still totals a vast number.

Such a vast continent is only one of the "Nine Provinces"?

"Does the opposite world have any kind of rule of Principle suppression?" the elder asked.

There is, but much smaller than ours. In that world, the probability of a martial artist containing the Principle is higher. in our world. much. However, there is also danger there."

"Indeed so." The elder sighed lightly, "The considerations we put into choosing the Green Province was?"

"Chaos and lack of a Lord. the Green Province is one of the three Provinces most chaotic with chaos. It is the only Province without a dominant level force."

"Is the dominant level force significant?"

"The strength of the forces we have explored so far is slightly higher than the Federation's dominant Grandmaster." the elder hesitated. the Federation can dominate the Green Province?""

"Even if we conquer the land, it will be difficult to hold, unless the Federation begins large-scale migration, only Province's territory, be abolished. only other planets."

"Even if we take the land, it will be difficult to hold, unless the Federation starts large-scale migration, this should be impossible."

“Moreover, if we demonstrate the ability to swallow the oasis, all the powers in the oasis will unite against us. This has happened more than once in the history we've gathered, and it's the main reason for the chaos in the oasis—this continent doesn't need a true master.”

“So, the current strategic plan of the Federation is to ‘radiate to the Nine Provinces from a central point.’”

“Once we completely resolve the passage issue, we will establish bases in different places, expand our influence, and strive to stand firm before alarming those Overlord-level powers.”

Mu Xianhe briefly introduced the Federation's current strategy.

The old man suddenly laughed, “Is this considered a grand colonization of another world?”

Mu Xianhe smiled and remained silent.

“So this is the great struggle era that General Ji spoke of. I'm fortunate to witness this moment.” The old man spoke softly, turning to Doctor Chen, “How's the arrangement for our Golden Generation?”

Doctor Chen nodded, “With Hela's cooperation, we've locked onto a ruin. This ruin will be very suitable for the young warriors participating in the selection contest, helping them quickly supplement their martial foundation and break free from shackles.”

“Is this really something you found?” Mu Xianhe narrowed his eyes, interrupting, “Doctor Chen, don't let Hela lead you astray. History is full of those misled by these beings.”

The old man's expression also turned solemn, “Doctor Chen, what Mu Xianhe said makes sense. No matter how careful you are in your dealings with Hela, it's never excessive. Can you confirm that you found this ruin on your own and not through Hela's hints or guidance?”

Doctor Chen's expression turned serious, “Rest assured, this was done under the witness of the God Lord.”

Upon hearing the witness of the God Lord, the old man's expression relaxed.

In the Federation's divine system, the Four God Lords never interfere with the Federation's internal affairs and rarely descend. However, once a God Lord issues an edict, whether it's the Federation's official or those grandmaster warriors seeking the ultimate path beyond the Federation, they must consider it carefully, even if the edict conflicts with their goals.

These four have long become the symbol of the Federation's guardian deities.

“As for why we chose this ruin...”

Doctor Chen kept them in suspense, his gaze swept over the old man and Mu Xianhe, “This ruin is highly likely to be related to General Mu.”

The old man's breath hitched.

No matter how the Federation's history is interpreted, it always revolves around seven individuals.

Even in later generations, there is no shortage of Supreme Grandmasters, and some even believe that the present has surpassed the past.

But the truth is cruel...

“Actually, in the battle to bring Hela back to the Federation, only three of the Seven Generals took action.”

The old man suddenly revealed a hidden secret to the two.

And the “Hela” he spoke of was the only one.

Doctor Chen and Mu Xianhe listened attentively.

The information they received was that the Seven Generals had joined forces to suppress Hela.

“The other four felt the risk was too great, and some wanted to take action but didn't have the chance.”

“The three who took action, General Wu defended the Celestial Insight, General Mu blocked Hela's all-out strike with her divine nation, and General He's single strike sealed the deal, pulling Hela down from her divine seat.”

“After that, things got simpler. General Ji severed the Celestial Insight, cutting off the others, and the other three evil gods took the lead in attacking Hela, severely injuring her. It was General Ji and the other two who lent Hela a helping hand, bringing her back to the Federation.”

“So, strictly speaking, we provided Hela with protection.”

At this moment, the old man's expression turned serious, emphasizing a principle.

Mu Xianhe and Doctor Chen politely remained silent.

They had no intention of commenting on the “protection” mentioned by the old man.

They couldn't help but marvel at the power of the three marshals as described by the old man.

It seemed casual, but whether it was severing the Celestial Insight, blocking the senses of the powerful, or blocking a supreme divine being's all-out strike and pulling her down from her divine position...

None of these were within the capabilities of the Federation's current warriors!

The Federation has had Supreme Grandmasters over the millennia, but none have reached the realm of the strongest among the Seven Generals.

According to those powerful individuals—

Sometimes, you look up and see them on the rooftop, while you're on the first floor. There's some distance in between, but at least there's hope.

But when you finally climb to the rooftop, you realize they're actually in the sky.

“The rules of the grand universe protect us, but they also restrict us.” The old man spoke softly, “The world you've discovered can elevate the Federation's martial arts to a new level.”

Mu Xianhe suddenly asked, “Why didn't the Seven Generals, who had already made contact and stepped into the wilderness beyond, pass down their methods? It's a very complex matter, and it even led to a big argument among them. I can't reveal more to you. But there's one thing I must warn you about—”

“When facing the world beyond the wilderness, always remember that the world we currently inhabit is the true foundation of the Federation.”

“No matter how wonderful and resource-rich the other world is, and no matter how suitable it is for the growth of warriors, the Federation will not migrate there.”

Mu Xianhe and Doctor Chen's eyes flickered. They might not be skilled in martial arts, but they were undoubtedly among the smartest in the Federation. They could sense the hidden meaning behind the old man's sudden words.

They even guessed the underlying implication—perhaps, the Seven Generals made a choice between the Nine Provinces and the grand universe, ultimately selecting the grand universe.

The elderly man spoke with profound meaning, "Many believe that the Mind Sea is invading our world, but they are mistaken. It is not an invasion."

"It is a return."

After saying this, the elderly man shifted the topic back to the upcoming selection tournament.

"The youth are the future and hope of the Federation. We cannot be too careful in ensuring their safety."

"According to past selection criteria, how many of this batch of warriors would be considered Superior?"

Doctor Chen responded, "Based solely on their talent, there are thirty-nine tentatively listed as Superior, and eight as Superlative."

The elderly man was startled, a rare expression of bewilderment on his face. "So many?"

It seemed that he had been away from the Heavenly Path for too long, unaware of the numerous exceptional young talents the Federation had produced.

Even though he had already estimated the "Golden Age" mentioned by Ji Shuai, the number still exceeded his expectations.

This number seemed to exclude the young talents who had already entered the Starlight Corporation and Moonlight selection in the previous two years.

He roughly calculated... and found that there were a hundred potential Superior warriors in this generation?!

These were all future seeds of Grandmasters!

Doctor Chen nodded, "It is estimated that before the tournament, many of these warriors will reach the Starlight Corporation level of strength. The resources within this ruin will further enhance their abilities."

The elderly man showed interest, "In a time of great competition, there are bound to be extraordinary talents. Among these young people, are there any exceptional ones beyond your assessment? I recall Old Ning is always stationed at the Four Guardians Star, has he taken a liking to any of them?"

Doctor Chen nodded, "The eight young people in the Superlative category should all be considered in this category."

The elderly man shook his head, "Too many. I'm referring to those truly extraordinary talents."

Doctor Chen pondered, "We haven't discovered such talents yet. After all, these young people are expected to complete their Dao Body cultivation in about a month, initially establishing the foundation of their martial arts and revealing their true potential."

"I see."

The elderly man wasn't in a hurry. He would know if there were truly extraordinary warriors after a few battles.

Suddenly, he remembered something and asked, "I heard that the Federation has a young person with a 99% compatibility with the Dragon Tiger Dao Body? What happened to him later?"

"This young man is Zhang Buzhou, also listed as Superlative. However, Old Ning's evaluation is that he was born into the wrong family. If he were an ordinary person, he would have certainly joined the Dragon Tiger Dojo and had the opportunity to attain a perfect Dao Body comparable to the Dragon Tiger Ancestor. Unfortunately, he has switched to cultivating the Pure Yang Dao Body."

Doctor Chen spoke with tact, "I've also heard about this. It is indeed a pity. What about the younger generation of the Mu Family?"

"Old Ning's evaluation is that they have more craftsmanship than spiritual energy."

"Hmm, what about the girl from the Lion Heart Dao?"

"She is also listed as Superlative. Old Ning's evaluation is that she has a natural deficiency but shows great potential. It seems the Federation may have another female martial goddess."

The elderly man slightly nodded, "This evaluation is quite good. Tell me about the evaluations of those listed as Superlative."

"Yue Youcong from the Martial Arts Association, Old Ning's evaluation is that the upper limit of the Heavenly Will Dao Body lies not in the Dao Body itself but in Yue Youcong's own abilities."

"Yin Wushuang of the Celestial Sword Dao Body..."

Doctor Chen elaborated, listing them one by one.

"Lastly, Ji Jingqiu."

The elderly man narrowed his eyes and interrupted, "The young man who broke Ji Linyuan's record?"

Doctor Chen nodded, "Yes, it's him. Old Ning's evaluation is that in terms of talent and emotion, he won't lose to anyone of his generation. His future potential solely depends on how deeply he can comprehend the Formless Dao Body."

"Formless Dao Body..." The elderly man's eyes drooped, and he sighed, "It seems many have forgotten that this should be the strongest Dao Body of the World Honorable Lineage."

Doctor Chen was surprised, "You mean the Mu Family?"

"Not the Mu Family, but the World Honorable Lineage. The World Honorable Lineage is the World Honorable Lineage, and the Mu Family is a separate matter!"

Doctor Chen didn't delve into the differences but was curious, "If this is the strongest Dao Body of the lineage, why is no one pursuing it?"

As far as he knew, among the available Superior Dao Bodies within the Mu Family, there was no Formless Dao Body.

The elderly man fell silent for a moment, then revealed a past event: "After Wood Marshal left, his second son, Wood He Shan, inherited a part of the World Honorable Lineage's Dao tradition, independent of the Mu Family. He cultivated the Formless Dao Body."

"The reason this Dao Body declined is because its threshold is too high. Appearance is just the beginning, impermanence is the process, and Nirvana Tranquility is the destination."

The elderly man seemed to be stirred by certain memories, showing a lack of enthusiasm.

He smiled, "Then let's look forward to a month from now."

...

...

Time flew by, and the days of secluded cultivation passed unnoticed.

In the blink of an eye, more than a month had quietly passed.

During this time, the usually bustling Four Guardians Star had become quieter, with few core disciples of the major powers seen in the White Jade Capital.

From dawn to dusk, from midnight to dawn, everyone immersed themselves in their final cultivation, breaking through their martial arts barriers.

When the selection tournament, which once seemed distant, was suddenly upon them, many warriors who had mobilized their families and dojos' resources to build their martial foundations began to emerge from seclusion, revealing their sharpened skills.

Except for a few who had bad luck in their final breakthrough and regressed, most of them achieved qualitative improvements.

These warriors who had emerged from seclusion started to move around, probing each other's progress and preparing for the tournament in the coming days.
