Chapter 231: The Battlefield Across Time and Space

Chapter 231: The Battlefield Across Time and Space

Coincidentally, Ji Jingqiu happened to pass by the gathering of the crowd and mingled with them, listening to their discussion.

It was just that he also needed to understand the top ten predecessors in front of the Ten Thousand Year Monument.

First of all, he needed to apologize to La Jian for being too loud earlier.

He never expected that just being "watched" by La Jian was enough to be listed among the world's geniuses. This new version directly elevated La Jian to the Divine Throne.

[Haha, you're no worse than them. The root cause of the Evil Poison Syndrome is the Vajra Seal, and those guys have all taken action. You managed to endure and eventually reversed your innate constitution. Consider yourself lucky.]



La Jian's mocking voice rang out, seemingly in response to his previous three-to-one guess.

Ji Jingqiu ignored it; no one understood better than him the difficulty of reversing one's innate constitution. The Four Divine Church's gaze traversed the boundless space and time, directly pointing at his true self-realm! If not for He Shuai's intervention, he would have been ready to trigger the overturning of the bitter sea, resulting in a "I'm not okay, and neither will anyone else."

However, seventy million years ago, Mo Tingfeng, who was in the Divine Roaming Realm, had independently created a clever path. He harnessed various divine abilities and even integrated many of them together.

In a, 6, 1, 9? A book, 1. Bar, 1, look, `No, 1, wrong version%!'

Lin Tianjun suddenly opened his eyes and sensed a familiar and lofty aura. He exclaimed:

[As for that dog thief, you're most likely not going to see him during the trials at the Ten Thousand Year Monument.]



These were the powerful figures of the Ten Thousand Year Monument, the Divine Sojourn Invincible of the Nine Provinces, and even the Great Universe for countless millions of years! At this moment, Ji Jingqiu began to ponder what he possessed.

"This Heavenly Maiden Clan girl is not simple. She has awakened a part of her true body in the Divine Roaming Realm, indicating she has another opportunity."

"The second on the Ten Thousand Year Monument is He Shuai, and the fifth is Ji Shuai. I wonder where Mu Shuai ranks and if we'll get to see him this time..." Ji Jingqiu muttered to himself.

The one sitting by the green lamp was not the Buddha.

Although the Nine Provinces couldn't represent the entire world, the first on the Ten Thousand Year Monument of the Nine Provinces was undoubtedly one of the most outstanding figures in the history of the Three Thousand Hells.

He stood there for a long time.

"If the Nine Palaces makes it to the top ten battlefield, won't we get to see that person again?" Someone suddenly spoke up.

[You got one thing wrong. It's not just about having talent to reach the end, nor is it about lacking talent to not reach the end. Take He Donghuang as an example. Even in the True Seed Realm, he couldn't enter the Forbidden Realm. Did that stop him from entering the Invincible Realm in the Divine Roaming Realm?]



Ji Jingqiu was both surprised and a little disappointed.

He will win! The height of his spirit, the all-around transformation of the twelve strands of divine insight, the opening of the divine treasure within his physical body, the distant gift from the Four Divine Church...

He seemed to have transformed into a gentle breeze, silently passing through the ancient buildings of the once-glorious and prosperous Daoist halls and temples. Despite the ancient path's maintenance, over time, they gradually became desolate and lonely, with moss covering the stone steps and the brilliance within the carved beams and painted rafters whispering in the wind.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

Mu Shuai ranked tenth?!

Well, to be precise, this person's demeanor and tone were still quite restrained.

Strictly speaking, the three knife techniques he had comprehended could also be considered future divine abilities.

In an ancient Daoist palace.

"Most of the seed warriors have already challenged the Ten Thousand Year Monument. Overall, this batch has surpassed previous years, second only to the one a million years ago."

However, in terms of combat power in the Divine Roaming Realm, the Dharmakaya might not necessarily lose to a non-permanently awakened world battlefield. It was also an extraordinary ability.

"What? Do you want to send someone here to die?"

Ji Jingqiu was taken aback and asked, "What do you mean? Why can't I see He Shuai?"

It wasn't the Bodhisattva Vajra.

Deep within the ancient path.

Ji Jingqiu sighed, "To you guys, even a warrior who can enter the Invincible Realm is just an incarnation medium?"

What's next? Divine abilities? Ji Jingqiu counted them and was surprised to find that he had quite a few in his possession.

The eighth, Leng Sanyan, specialized in the Sword Dao and was known as the first sword master in the history of the Divine Roaming Realm. In reality, she cultivated the Divine Nature, infusing it into her sword. Besides the Mind Sword, she also cultivated a "Divine Sword," with which she roamed the Divine Realm.

He found Forest Law and the others and inquired about more information on the first of the Ten Thousand Year Monument.

During this time.

[He will be restricted to the Divine Roaming Realm, and his strength in this realm is just a step away from the Invincible Realm. If you can defeat him, you'll naturally have the qualification to challenge the top ten.]



Nine Provinces, Yafu Continent.

In general, they should still "thank" him.

Warriors from the Nine Provinces and the Dark Sea began to challenge the Ten Thousand Year Monument one after another, striving for a higher ranking.

Outside the Daoist palace, a man waiting in the void quickly replied respectfully, "Reporting to the Heavenly Lord, we observed that it should be within the next few days."

The contemporary Heavenly Maiden of the Heavenly Maiden Clan, Leng Yuexin.

The young man's eyes were clear and calm, and his handsome face showed determination and an indescribable sense of loftiness.

"For such a challenge, we must give it our all!" someone said dismissively, "You don't understand if you're not invincible."

[I know you still have an avatar on the ancient path. After this main body perishes, don't move that avatar. Keep it safe and hidden, and leave with this batch of warriors. Leave a root for the Heavenly Realm in the future.]



"Then I'll bet on the top three." Gu Tan Tian smiled slightly, and his words instantly silenced many.

...

He stopped in front of an ancient temple.

"What do you mean?"

A green lamp shone brightly inside the temple.

It was a young man who didn't know the vastness of the sky nor the thickness of the earth.

Hela's voice was indifferent: [A guess. Wait for your verification before speaking.]



"Perish?" The warrior who called himself the Heavenly Lord was not shaken by the latter part of the sentence. He laughed coldly, "Then let me see who you sent to kill me! I've learned everything from ancient times. How can these juniors kill me in the same realm?"

At the peak of the mountain, the figure suddenly looked up, sensing the constraints and suppression of the heavenly rules, which caused everything to flow back to the level of his past divine sojourn. He wasn't flustered but instead grinned maliciously.

Ji Jingqiu saw through the other's disguise in an instant, confirming it was Ji Anquan.

Under the vast and silent canopy of the sky, not even an echo could be heard, and the surrounding void swallowed everything.

He remained silent for a long time.

[In this life, if someone can reach the top of the Eternal Monument, you, the people of the Imperial Heaven, should follow him. He will be the last ruler of the Imperial Heaven.]



In another way of saying it, sometimes the so-called strengths and weaknesses are relative.

Additionally, there's the newly acquired Great Tumbling Monument Palm.

The Dharmakaya, on the other hand, is the manifestation of the integration of one's martial path, possessing vast divine abilities and immeasurable power.

The third, Ming Miao Yin, claimed to be a master of mind secrets, killing without leaving a trace. During her divine sojourn, she had already comprehended the wonder of tranquil heart, and her cultivation of mind secrets was renowned as the best in the Nine Provinces...

Amidst the roar of anger, the Imperial Capital seemed to embody a three-headed, six-armed deity, fierce and formidable. The six arms, manifested by the power of heaven and earth, formed fist and palm seals. In an instant, six divine abilities worked in unison to launch an attack. Ji Jingqiu, with his Bodhimanda Insight, saw countless flaws and slightly shook his head.

No one is all-powerful, not even Ji Jingqiu. In the realm of the invincible, everyone competes to see whose weaknesses are the least, or whose strengths are so great that they can be ignored.

Ji Jingqiu's sharp eyes spotted someone in the crowd, a woman who was boasting about Ji Shuai. Surprisingly, she was a woman he had subdued on the Ancient Path.

Ji Jingqiu's eyes gleamed with anticipation.

Ning Mingsheng, the first on the Eternal Monument.

Ji Jingqiu was taken aback. What did this mean? Could it be that he could reverse the flow of time and return to the past to fight against the ancients? In his imagination, it should be similar to White Jade Capital, where warriors challenged the imprints of divine abilities left by the supreme, possessing tenfold battle strength in their prime.

A supreme divine ability, the Mind Flame Ten Thousand Lamp.

Some claimed the top ten and top five as a minor hurdle, and the guardian of the fifth place was named Ji Tianxing, who integrated the art of destiny into his swordplay. His swordsmanship was transcendent and extraordinary, and when he drew his sword, it seemed as if the heavens shifted, making him an unstoppable force.

During this period, many prohibitors chose to challenge, but their final rankings differed significantly from their expectations.

The most unfortunate was the Heavenly Deity Clan's Suopo, who had remained hidden until now but managed to squeeze into the top 100, only to be pushed out of the top 100 by Lin Tianjun, the last challenger.

The towering, dark peak stood majestic in the universe, its rocky peaks staggered, and not a trace of life could be seen on its surface.

As for his martial prowess...

"The sixth... It's indeed a bit difficult," someone frowned, "I almost forgot about their abilities. To be honest, at this level, one must fight to truly understand."

"I heard that the challenge for the top ten on the Eternal Monument is called 'A Battle Across Time and Space,' seeking opponents within the flowing river of time!"

[You've learned from all eternity, but if you still haven't found your path, what's the use? The Heavenly Emperor is dead. Even if you learn countless ancient laws, it's a waste of time. I've always waited for you to innovate and forge a new path, but you're blinded by a single leaf, seeking only quantity and forgetting about refinement. Even Mo Tingfeng, who followed a similar path to yours seventy years ago, surpasses you by far.]



Finally, the young man inside opened his eyes, and his aura rose, his eyes shining like the morning stars in the sky, as if he had made all the necessary preparations.

Moreover, the structure of the Inner Realm directly penetrated the future of martial arts.

Even without explicit words, the crowd understood whom he was referring to.

Amidst the crowd's arguments, Ji Jingqiu heard that the fourth-ranked warrior on the Eternal Monument, Nie Qingyuan, had already condensed his Dharmic Form in the Divine Roaming Realm, making him invincible.

A divine ability, the Bodhimanda Insight.

Of course, Jiang Tunhai felt even worse, as his ranking was lower than Suopo's.

However, the true test, as the Ancient Path Will said, would only be known after a fight.

A light sigh echoed, causing the Imperial Capital to tremble as if facing a formidable enemy.

"Pay attention to his final ranking," a hoarse male voice rumbled again, "I need to go out and meet some fellow cultivators. If anyone comes to visit in the near future, tell them that the Heavenly Sage Palace will not be participating for now."

But this time, no one responded to him.

He wasn't moved by the "bitterly thoughtful intention" in the Ancient Path Will's words but was astonished by the revelation of a state beyond heavenly will.

What was his invincibility? Ji Jingqiu didn't need to think about this question.

Outside the Heaven and Earth Dharmakaya, there was the physical body.

...

A gentle breeze seemed to brush over every brick and tile, wiping away the dust of history.

Gutan Tian spoke nonchalantly, "If the top ten have entered, what's the big deal about entering the top three?"

Two leaders from the South Continent and the West Phoenix Continent successively entered the challenge area of the Eternal Monument, quickly breaking into the top 100 and advancing to the top 30!

"You... You've transcended the Heavenly Heart Realm? How are you maintaining your current state?" the Imperial Capital exclaimed in shock.

Not only the strong from the Nine Provinces were paying attention to the final challenge of the Eternal Monument.

"Disciple Lin Tianjun, the sixth-generation core disciple, inheriting from Yangming Tianjun!"

At this moment.

From the Ancient Path Will, Ji Jingqiu learned that the first on the Eternal Monument, named Ning Mingsheng, was the last anomaly born of the Imperial Heaven.

"The top three?" Someone was astonished and shook their head. "That's too high."

The sixth, Yi Tianpeng, relied on his invincible physical body.

[The challenge of the Eternal Monument... I can grant you a special privilege. If you can slay my evil body, you'll directly enter the final battlefield and challenge the top ten on the Eternal Monument.]



The next moment.

"Let's cut the chatter. I'm betting on the sixth place."

With just over half a month left until the end of the Ancient Road trial, Ji Jingqiu began his final state adjustment, during which he contemplated the Buddha Palm and the Great Tumbling Monument Palm.

Among the crowd, there was a seemingly neutral person, constantly boasting about Ji Shuai with flowery praise.

"Not bad, but entering the top five is no easy feat." Someone sighed lightly, "Although they are all Invincible Warriors, there are subtle differences, which are the strengths and weaknesses of their respective paths."

If Ji Jingqiu could truly reach his front, he would naturally be able to see.

In the end, a warrior named Hong You let out a long sigh, seemingly not getting the expected ending he had hoped for, and regretfully withdrew from the Ancient Road trial.

Ji Jingqiu's gaze was lost in thought, only hearing the thumping of his heart in his chest, eager to rush to the battlefield right away.

Ji Jingqiu had once condensed a Dharmakaya domain in the True Seed Realm, but he was still far from truly manifesting a Dharmakaya.

Since before cultivating his body, this had been his greatest reliance.

In the end, one stopped at 28, and another at 27.

A man asked in confusion, "Why didn't the Heavenly Lord, as usual, take this opportunity to investigate the life and death of those from the Nine Provinces?"

Although the Ten Thousand Ancient Monument trial spanned three months, for these powerful warriors, three months were but a blink of an eye, so there was no impatience, only growing anticipation, especially with the high likelihood of witnessing the top ten battles in this session.

Even for a Shackles Realm warrior, nurturing a seed of divine ability from scratch required immense energy, wealth, and subsequent cultivation and contemplation.

"Not bad, let's start with the surname Gu! You're his senior, you must be optimistic about this kid, right?"

He seemed like a guardian deity.

According to La Jiang's account, this might not even be Mu Shuai's true strength.

What is divine ability? It is the combination of the mind and the power of heaven and earth, the manifestation of Dharma principles in the world.

No one knew how much time had passed.

...

"Now, we can only look forward to the kid from the Nine Palaces. This kid can really endure!" a powerful warrior muttered.

A roar, accompanied by heavy breathing, echoed from the front, and a figure pounced forward, surrounded by raging winds that made Ji Jingqiu's clothes flutter: "I have learned all Dharmas, why do you dare to challenge me?!"

The Imperial Capital shouted, his voice filled with inner weakness, "A stepping stone? I am the true heir of the Heavenly Emperor! How dare you ask me to be a stepping stone for others?!"

With a single palm strike, all phenomena were born.

"Hmm..." Ji Jingqiu thought to himself that this old woman was really shameless, even taking credit for this.

"But the Heavenly Lord is above us all?!"

Not to mention, this position was highly likely to involve a certain Holy Land!

After all, warriors who entered the trial through normal means had the qualification to voluntarily withdraw from the scene.

But among these divine abilities, the pure three-style knife technique was still far from having the capital to compete with the strongest divine ability.

Although many warriors in the Far East War Zone believed he had a chance to break into the top ten, there were still few who thought he could make it to the top five.

After Ji Jingqiu left.

The first divine anomaly of the Federation's supreme body cultivation was the Embryo Dharmakaya, and to truly manifest a Dharmakaya, one had to at least reach the Heart Lamp Realm.

Forest Law solemnly stated that in the records of the Purple Crystal Clan, even the name of that person was taboo and had been erased. This was basically the same for other civilized races.

Within the Inner Realm, the lotus representing this divine ability had not even fully bloomed.

In the Heart Lamp Realm, the physical body was unified, and he had already begun constructing the Inner Realm. Whether it was the physique or the mind, they supported the operation of the Inner Realm, and by manipulating the Outer Realm through this, he could manifest a Dharmakaya.

In the end, Ji Jingqiu drew a conclusion—

The whereabouts of Xuan Youwei from the Four Divine Church were unknown, and the crowd suspected that this woman had fled in advance.

...

...

Although the incomplete Buddha Palm technique was not inferior to the strongest divine ability, his grasp of this divine ability was still shallow.

And now, his reliance had disappeared.

A weary voice reached Lin Tianjun's ears.

He didn't speak, but just smiled slightly, as if he had said everything he needed to say.

[You mentioned Yi Tianpeng? I have a vague impression. This person is gifted, possessing a divine body, and is a decent incarnation medium, nothing more.]



Chang Lan, the ninth-ranked in the Ten Thousand Ancient Monument trial, had contemplated a supreme divine ability to an extremely deep level in the Divine Sojourn Realm, even pushing the boundaries and evolving his own divine ability, relying on it as an Invincible foundation.

"Oh, by the way, big brother," Forest Law said excitedly, "I heard that the challenges for the top ten in the Ten Thousand Ancient Monument trial are completely different from the others!"

When various factors were combined, he had almost no obvious weaknesses, and his strengths were very apparent.

Dharmakaya... in other words, Dharmakaya.

It is worth mentioning that...

Amidst the crowd's discussions, Ji Jingqiu's thoughts were calm, using the powerful warriors mentioned by the crowd as a reference to assess his own strengths and weaknesses.

His only regret was that he didn't hear any news about the first and second places among the crowd's chatter.

The mutually complementary Great Thunder Zen Heart and the incomplete Buddha Palm technique.

In the Far East War Zone, only three warriors made it into the top hundred, with Lin Tianjun being the highest-ranked at 66th place.

"Everyone has placed their bets, guessing what rank Ji Jingqiu from the Nine Palaces will ultimately achieve. I'll be the banker."

This powerful warrior had witnessed the strength of this person in the Ten Thousand Ancient Monument trial more than once. Even if he didn't like this person, he had to acknowledge the extreme prowess of this Divine Sojourn Realm warrior.

The Imperial Capital stood there dumbfounded, and even with a thousand divine abilities and wondrous methods at his disposal, he couldn't decide which one to use to break through the attack, and in the end, he was covered by a palm strike to his forehead.

Ji Jingqiu walked past the Imperial Capital, heading towards the void rift in front of him, speaking calmly, "The martial path is profound and vast, and you are blinded by a single leaf, how can you see the entirety of Mount Tai?"

The next chapter will likely be a climactic chapter written in one go...

This kind of high-tension chapter is definitely challenging to write, so please be patient and wait.
