Chapter 242: Filling the Gaps, Ten Thousand Phenomena Orb, and the Top 500 Before the Heaven Man Lim

Chapter 242: Filling the Gaps, Ten Thousand Phenomena Orb, and the Top 500 Before the Heaven Man Limit (Part 1)



In a remote wilderness far from the urban area, two figures stood atop a desolate mountain, overlooking a desolate landscape devoid of any vegetation.

White Deer Daoist and Yang Yan observed from the mountain peak as Ji Jingqiu and Hong Hu engaged in a fierce battle below, their thunderous clashes echoing through the wilderness, leaving behind hundreds of meters of fist imprints with each strike.

Ji Jingqiu and Hong Hu, under the watchful eye of White Deer Daoist, started with cautious probing and gradually escalated to an all-out fight, both sides growing increasingly alarmed as the battle intensified.

In the initial head-on collision, Ji Jingqiu was clearly at a disadvantage, positioned below.

Hong Hu's fists were overwhelmingly powerful, each strike carrying the force of a mountain crashing down. He had cultivated the unique Dragon Tiger Dao Body of the Dragon Tiger Arena, achieving a temporary unification of his corporeal body, far beyond what Ji Jingqiu could currently match.

Although Ji Jingqiu had not yet displayed his Heaven-Earth Field, he too had entered a temporary unification of his corporeal body through the Field Embryo. Still, he had to be cautious of Hong Hu's formidable might.

In terms of physical prowess alone, Ji Jingqiu was clearly inferior to White Deer Senior Uncle, and the gap was significant.

"Jingqiu, while you can momentarily uphold the suppression of the Heaven-Earth Field, your method is somewhat crude. In the coming days, I will personally teach you the proper usage of the Field..."

Especially for Ji Jingqiu, he could distinctly feel that his Heaven-Earth Field seemed to lack something intangible when compared to White Deer Senior Uncle's.

Yes... it's almost time...

As for the martial arts inheritance—

Ji Jingqiu learned from White Deer Senior Uncle that in the pursuit of the Heart Reflection Realm, a crucial consideration was the control over the unity of heaven and man.

Initially, Hong Hu had the strength to "protect" his specially made battle attire, but as the fight progressed, he too became exhausted.

Pure strength, speed, and all-around improvement in reflexes—it was either there or not. Physical prowess was just that simple and crude.

Soon, Ji Jingqiu carefully chose his words.

However, at their level, physical prowess was just one aspect. With every move, both of them were accompanied by the power of heaven and earth, making up for the shortcomings of their corporeal bodies.

"This path, though filled with difficulties and obstacles, offers a magnificent 'landscape' that most warriors will never witness in their lifetime!"

The threshold of the unity of heaven and man, a single Embryo Breath, and the reversal of the Innate Realm—these had stumped countless warriors. Even for Ji Jingqiu at this moment, he was far from comprehending the marvels of the Embryo Breath. In fact, most warriors who had broken through the limit of the unity of heaven and man had yet to grasp the wonders of the Embryo Breath; they had only understood it through the special circumstances encountered during their breakthrough.

The Nine Palaces had high hopes for Ji Jingqiu, and in the future, he would likely become the bridge between the Federation and the Nine Palaces.

Recalling the recent meeting where the military had made their stance clear, Yan Ruhuo rubbed his brow and said, "The situation is complex. To be precise, we've been intervening all along, but it seems things are getting even more dire..."

This was the Heart Reflection Warrior's ability to integrate and comprehend their martial arts, forming the Heart Reflection Field, with the Dharmakaya as the foundation and the innate nature as the root. By visualizing wondrous scenes, they could forcibly rewrite the laws and principles within their field.

At this moment, Ji Jingqiu felt a field domain radiating from Hong Hu, enveloping him as they vied for control over the power of heaven and earth, seemingly rewriting the laws and principles within the domain.

Within the Nine Palaces, Ji Jingqiu only had a trusting relationship with the Great Crimson Heaven Palace, with the Crimson Heaven Palace being an associated entity.

Speaking of this, White Deer Daoist snapped his fingers.

Ji Jingqiu nodded, knowing there was no reason to refuse.

White Deer Daoist nodded and said, "In fact, the Heart Reflection Field is just one step away from the Field Embryo. But you must understand that the Field Embryo of the Heart Reflection Warrior contains the innate nature, far surpassing the Field Embryo of your True Seed Realm."

Not only Ji Jingqiu, but Yang Yan and Hong Hu as well, were all "seekers" before the limit of the unity of heaven and man.

"The top five hundred..." White Deer Daoist contemplated, "That's a bit high. Jingqiu's corporeal body, compared to warriors of this level, is too weak. Even the wonders of the Embryo Breath can't fully support him, but with his promotion speed, it won't be long now."

Hearing this, Ji Jingqiu's expression turned solemn, and he invited Yan Ruhuo to sit down.

As Hong Hu Senior Uncle displayed his true abilities, Ji Jingqiu also held nothing back. Ever since he had condensed the Embryo Breath, he had never fought with full strength.

They had both endured the hardships of the Divine Roaming Realm.

The implications of this matter were immense...

Breaking through during a battle—this was truly protagonist-level treatment.

Ji Jingqiu had just entered the Shackles Realm and was already ranked within the top five hundred!

Ji Jingqiu marveled at the importance of trust between people.

If Ji Jingqiu proceeded step by step, finding suitable opponents, he would naturally become stronger with each battle.

"Won't the higher-ups intervene?"

Although the Federation's overall rating was only at the second civilization level, their upper echelon's combat power, combined with the sacred armaments left by the Seven Commanders, ensured they wouldn't lose to any top-tier civilization, and they might even surpass them.

Ji Jingqiu nodded in agreement.

Through the Ten Thousand Phenomena to comprehend the Formless... Ji Jingqiu's thoughts settled, and after much deliberation, he found himself back on this path.

On the other hand, Lu Tong Senior Uncle was more optimistic than him.

What Heart Reflection Warriors lacked the most was the understanding of the martial arts inheritance.

He didn't trust the Nine Palaces either; at most, he had a foundation of trust with the Great Crimson Heaven Palace.

Hong Hu was inwardly marveling at Ji Jingqiu's physical prowess, but soon, he realized his astonishment was premature.

Was that just now the Field? The Human Heaven-Earth Field? He did suspect that Ji Jingqiu's Field Embryo to have improved, but how could it be a leap from primary school to university? This guy wasn't even at the Shackles Realm! If he was at the peak of the Heart Reflection Realm, those hidden cultivators striving for the limit of the unity of heaven and man would never doubt it! As the battle progressed, Hong Hu felt he had to bring out his true abilities. His inner energy surged, guided by his soul, and in an instant, a storm of wind and clouds erupted. The energy gushing from his pores transformed into a dragon and tiger of wind and clouds, and a massive vortex formed above, hovering menacingly.

Yan Ruhuo got straight to the point, directly expressing his intentions.

White Deer Daoist paid no heed to his thoughts and shared what he had been contemplating for the past few days: "I'll give you a path—pay a visit and refine the hundred scriptures." "In the Heart Reflection Realm, a warrior with ambition will lay the initial foundation for their future Great Dao. In the True Seed Realm, you forged the Formless Body..."

Even standing at the pinnacle of the mortal realm, one can still comprehend the profound mysteries of the Embryo Breath and the quasi-Heaven Man. Without breaking through the Heaven Man limit, one's control will remain at only seventy percent!

They believe that it will take two hundred years for the Tridivisioned Floating Earth to completely invade.

Hong Hu was choked up, thinking that if Ji Jingqiu fought, Yang Yan would hold back, but he wouldn't hold back against himself. "Jingqiu, how do you feel?" White Deer Daoist looked at Ji Jingqiu and asked directly.

At the age of seventeen, the Embryo Breath...

Especially in the Shackles Realm, one has to work and earn money, finally squeezing out time for cultivation.

The two of them are still on the western battlefield. Ba Ge is imprisoned, and Dao Ge is going to rescue him. Not long ago, he broke through the Heart Reflection Realm during the battle.

Thinking about the Introduction Zone, Ji Jingqiu also felt a headache.

Yan Ruhuo looked deeply at Ji Jingqiu.

If Ji Jingqiu maintains this speed, it seems he will soon comprehend the Hundred Channels.

Thanks to the Supreme Buddha Sect for their gift.

Ji Jingqiu keenly realized that in White Deer Senior Uncle's field, he couldn't even interfere with the power of heaven and earth, let alone sense it. He felt a bit restless, wondering if he could break free by using the Heaven-Earth Field now.

Ji Jingqiu pondered, "Is the official plan to relocate Tai'an City or create a quarantine zone?"

Ji Jingqiu was surprised. This was something he and White Deer Senior Uncle hadn't anticipated. Doesn't the Federation fear unexpected events? Yan Ruhuo sighed inwardly. In this regard, the Federation has its own considerations, wanting to use Tai'an City as a testing ground to observe the integration of the two peoples' lifestyles and many other aspects.

...

The two of them arrived at the mountain peak together.

To be honest...

"Similarly, the Heart Reflection Warrior's pursuit of reversing the innate is not something you can achieve in the True Seed Realm. The essence of life is just too different."

They introspect, finding and fixing their shortcomings, and gaining insights into their own deficiencies.

But even now, many people still hold an unoptimistic attitude towards this plan.

This "Big Eater" is not something he can afford to keep.

Not long ago, he also sensed that someone in East Three Radiant Star seemed to be breaking through the Embryo Breath. He specifically asked White Deer Senior Brother, but the latter remained mysteriously silent. Now he finally knows that the person is actually Ji Jingqiu!

Ji Jingqiu also remembered the heavy, hidden obstruction and restriction he felt when he intervened before.

The Federation's Hidden Dragon Ranking records one hundred thousand warriors who have the potential to break through the Heaven Man limit. They start with the Shackles Realm, and the first three thousand are in the Heart Reflection Field.

In his opinion, whether this Introduction Zone plan can continue depends entirely on Ji Jingqiu's influence within the Federation.

Although he cannot compete with the predecessors, he can witness the brilliance of ten thousand years ago and indirectly clash through the martial lineage and tradition they left behind.

Hong Hu brushed off some dust and sighed, "I understand why you asked me to intervene, Senior Brother, instead of letting Yang Yan do it."

At that time, Ji Jingqiu was only in the True Seed Realm.

It should be because of the Divine Embryo that Ji Jingqiu's physical strength far exceeded other warriors even before his transformation.

No matter how strong the Nine Palaces are, they are still "distant waters." Moreover, for the Nine Palaces to come to the Great Universe, they would have to rely on Ji Jingqiu to establish a foothold there.

Yan Ruhuo sighed and said, "The ceasefire was already in place, but due to some other reasons, they started fighting again."

Finally, White Deer Daoist asked, "Based on your self-perception, what do you think you should do next, besides breaking free from the shackles?"

Yan Ruhuo felt the pressure deeply. Due to his busy official duties, he hasn't broken through to the Heart Reflection Realm yet...

In theory, each transformation in the Shackles Realm is a qualitative change, representing a comprehensive elevation of the essence of life. The differences in strength, speed, reaction, and other aspects are very noticeable compared to before.

Beside him, Yang Yan sighed with relief, "If it really comes to a fight, I'm afraid I won't be Ji Jingqiu's match."

White Deer Daoist spoke solemnly, "The Federation's ancestors were no weaker than others. Ten thousand years ago, they were known for a hundred martial lineages advancing together, and over eighty percent of them opened up the Grandmaster's path. That was the Federation's true golden age!"

But this seems to be just the beginning.

Moreover, it's unrealistic and impossible for the Nine Palaces to come all at once.

At this stage, the Heaven-Earth Field is not far away.

The Water Moon Orb, also known as the Ten Thousand Phenomena Orb, was left behind by Wan Cheng Cang years ago.

The Heart Reflection Realm also has a special name, the Heavenly Phenomenon Realm, which pursues the unity of heaven and man, using the human body to gather heavenly phenomena.

These powerful individuals gradually establish their footing and search for a suitable base for the Nine Palaces. During this process, the other seven palaces depend on the two for their survival.

Some important transformations are not triggered by a single-sided improvement but are the product of the integration of both sides.

In the cool air, they had a brief encounter with the Divine Prodigy, the Elder Mu, and the White deer Daoist. The three of them were seasoned fighters, all reaching for the heart reflection realm. One of them, the mighty Season, had just made a breakthrough in their cultivation, surpassing even hisThe elder brother Donghe, who had reached the heart reflection realm, was now leading a group of martial artists in the True Sage Arena.
