Chapter 211: Breaking Limits, the World Trembles
As soon as the Earth Spirit Pearl entered the Glabella Cave, it moved straight towards the center.
At the same time, the Divine Soul Talisman suddenly shrank and flew towards the Earth Spirit Pearl.
With a flash of light, when everything returned to calm, the space within the Glabella Cave had transformed once more.
At the very center, the Earth Spirit Pearl occupied a prominent position, like an earthen-yellow star, majestic and heavy as it slowly rotated on its own.
Surrounding it, five differently colored orbs, transformed by the law talismans, revolved like satellites.
As for the Divine Soul Talisman, it had entered the interior of the Earth Spirit Pearl and appeared at the core, right at the very center.
With the slow rotation of the Earth Spirit Pearl, wisps of awe-inspiring power emanated, and Lu Qing began to sense the changes occurring within him.
With the blessing of the Earth Spirit Pearl, the stability of the space within the Glabella Cave was greatly enhanced once more.
Under the projection of the Earth Spirit Pearl's power, his physical body also underwent a peculiar transformation.
As his aptitude was constantly cleansed and tempered, his physical strength gradually increased alongside the elevation of his aptitude.
According to the common knowledge of martial arts cultivation, Lu Qing's physical strength had already reached the peak of the Acquired Realm.
Before stepping into the Innate Realm, his physical strength should have already peaked, with no room for further enhancement.
However, it was evident that in the face of a treasure like the Earth Spirit Pearl, a treasure of the Earth element, this common knowledge was shattered.
Most importantly, the Divine Soul Talisman had now entered the Earth Spirit Pearl and was being nurtured and protected, also gradually growing stronger.
"As expected of a treasure that could incite countless cultivators to fight over it during the cultivation era, and this is just the initial refinement. The Earth Spirit Pearl already has such wondrous effects."
Lu Qing sensed the changes within his Glabella Cave and a joyful expression appeared on his face.
In terms of power, the Earth Spirit Pearl might not compare to those mighty spiritual artifacts.
However, its various auxiliary benefits to cultivators were far beyond what ordinary spiritual artifacts could achieve.
Even with his crude refinement of the Earth Spirit Pearl, he had already gained immense benefits.
When he completely refined and controlled it in the future, the advantages he would gain would undoubtedly be even greater.
"I wonder, after this refinement of my physical body and divine soul reaches its limit, how powerful will I become?"
Ever since he condensed the Divine Soul Talisman, Lu Qing's divine soul and physical body had reached a bottleneck.
Aside from breaking through to the Innate Realm, there seemed to be no way to further increase his power.
However, nurtured by the Earth Spirit Pearl, he could once again break through this limit.
He was eager to see how powerful he would become after this transformation concluded.
According to the inheritance he had obtained, the Innate Realm was the most crucial transformation in the path of martial arts.
The firmer the foundation a martial artist laid before entering the Innate Realm, the greater the benefits they would gain after the breakthrough.
"After this transformation is over, I dare not say what will happen next, but since the depletion of spiritual energy and the rise of martial arts, over these countless millennia, my foundation in martial arts, even if it can't be called unprecedented, should be close to it."
Lu Qing clenched his fist, feeling the surging power within him, his eyes shining with confidence.
Boom!
Just as Lu Qing was envisioning his future path in martial arts, suddenly, a formless vibration reverberated, like the beating of a heart.
"What's going on?"
Lu Qing's heart trembled.
Boom!
Just as he wondered if someone was attacking from the outside.
Another vibration echoed.
This time, Lu Qing realized that the vibration was not caused by an external attack.
Instead, it was a much more profound change in the world itself.
This vibration seemed like the heartbeat of the world, sweeping across the land, unstoppable and unaffected by any obstruction.
Chapter: The Nine Pulses of Heaven and Earth
Even within the Jade Cavern, Lu Qing could distinctly sense it.
Boom!
A third pulse reverberated.
Seated on the jade bed, Lu Qing listened quietly to these successive, invisible pulses of the world, as if he was comprehending something.
...Boom!
After the ninth pulse, the world began to calm down.
But Lu Qing clearly sensed that the entire world had undergone a very peculiar change.
In the surrounding space, there seemed to be an indescribable, subtle change, making it more vibrant and full of vitality.
However, this change was extremely subtle and still in its infancy, not very obvious. Those with weaker divine soul power among the Innate Realm warriors might not even be able to distinguish it.
"Nine pulses of heaven and earth. Does this mean that the world is finally about to change, and that spiritual energy will truly begin to recover?"
Lu Qing sat on the jade bed, carefully pondering the changes in space, enlightenment dawning in his heart.
As Lu Qing was pondering the changes in space, the entire world was also shaken by these nine pulses.
The nine pulses of heaven and earth were a manifestation of the changing rules of the world, and only powerful warriors who had cultivated their divine soul power, or those with extraordinary innate talents and unique gifts, could sense them.
Ordinary people or less skilled warriors were unable to hear these sounds of the world, and could only feel a vague oppression in their hearts, without understanding the reason.
However, there were countless practitioners of martial arts in the world.
Especially among the powerful sects and families, there were quite a few Innate Realm experts.
In Zhongzhou, at the headquarters of the Tianji Tower.
"Master, what was that just now?" A young man with a sword-like brow and a star-like gaze looked at an elderly man in a white robe, his white hair and beard giving him a sage-like appearance.
"This day has finally come," the white-haired elder sighed.
"Master, is this the change in heaven and earth that you've always been worried about?" the young man asked.
"Yes. The nine pulses of heaven and earth ringing out is a sign that the rules of the world are changing. A great upheaval is about to occur," the white-haired elder said gravely.
"What should we do now, Master?"
"For now, we can only wait and see. With the initial change in heaven and earth, the mechanisms of heaven are obscured, and even I am unable to make any predictions. We must be cautious and refrain from making any hasty moves," the white-haired elder replied.
"But Master, didn't you say that once the changes in heaven and earth begin, all kinds of monstrous talents will emerge, and the world will be thrown into chaos? Shouldn't we do something?" The young man asked, confused.
"There's nothing we can do but wait. With the heavens veiled in mystery, the advantage of our Tianji Tower is greatly diminished. Any rash actions could lead to unpredictable consequences," the elder said helplessly.
As the leader of the Tianji Tower, he had to consider the interests of the sect. In the face of an uncertain future, he dared not act recklessly, lest he plunge the Tianji Tower into an abyss.
He believed that the other top sects were also adopting a wait-and-see approach. However, he wondered about the attitudes of the four secret realms and the existence of the legendary immortal cultivation sects.
And what of the demonic sects that had fled to the far north over a millennium ago and were now stirring once more...
Too many concerns weighed on the white-haired elder's mind, filling his heart with heaviness.
