Chapter 245: Unparalleled Dao Foundation, Three Months Later

Chapter 245: Unparalleled Dao Foundation, Three Months Later

Why is Haila so eager to meet him?

Ji Jingqiu found this rather unusual.

Ever since that night when Haila 'accidentally' entered his inner world and came into contact with the Sea of Suffering Across Worlds, Lajiang's original body had avoided him like the plague.

Now, Haila was taking the initiative to meet him, which could only mean one of two things: either something was amiss, or she had a request to make of him.

Ji Jingqiu pondered whether he should meet her.

With his current mental state, it was impossible for Haila's stray power in the world to invade his inner world as easily as before.

And if things got out of hand, not only would the Four Divine Lords interfere, but the White Jade Capital would also step in to suppress them.

[I'll transmit another mental technique to you. You can cultivate it alongside the Unification Principle. When Ah He was refining the hundred meridians, he relied on this secret technique to simplify the myriad laws and ultimately unify them, forging them into the foundation of his martial arts.]



In a 619? A book, a bar, a look, a mistake, a version, an exclamation mark!

Only when he reaches the Divine Human Realm and thoroughly comprehends the laws of heaven and earth will he have a chance to uproot it.

North Zone 1.

"According to the intelligence, he has just broken through to the Sacred Embryo not long ago. This value will continue to grow slowly until he fully adapts to the rules of the Great Universe. With Heart Certification Embryo Breath, he will eventually be able to reach the seven-tenths limit."

Ji Jingqiu proceeded without any obstacles, when passing by a courtyard, he found it empty, and the Ning Master who had been stationed there was nowhere to be seen.

He always felt that the way this person looked at him was like...

Doctor Chen spoke indifferently, "How's the data calculation for Ji Jingqiu going?"

"Huh?"

As soon as he stepped into the lab, his gaze was involuntarily drawn to the figure in the center, and he couldn't tear his eyes away.

"The results are out. His vitality measurement has already reached 7.98!" Researcher A exclaimed, "This data is only 0.02 points away from the Fourth Breakthrough's standard value of 8!"

From 2 to 7.98 could still be considered four times.

Regenerative parents?

Ji Jingqiu looked at his back, wondering if the Crimson Lab truly possessed a complete set of theoretical data that could accurately measure the gap between the Shackles Realm and the Divine Human Realm? He didn't delve deeper, figuring he would find out in due time.

It was only because his physique far surpassed those of the same level that he could turn this secret technique into a constant state, keeping it running at all times.

He seemed to have been pulled into another world, surrounded by mist, and the water reached just below his ankles.

"Jingqiu."

"How have you been lately?"

Doctor Chen glanced at him sideways, "Didn't you win 20 million last time?"

If he were to report this to a Divine Lord, he would be able to nip the danger in the bud! [Our cooperation involves the Divine Seat and is also related to the other three. Think it over, and if you're ready, come find me.]



But when it came to physique, he couldn't even come close.

...

Ji Jingqiu stood in place for a long time, sighing softly as his expression gradually returned to calm.

But if he were to uproot this blade, he would first have to deal with Haila's original body; otherwise, it would be like releasing a tiger from its cage.

From now on, every time he breaks free from a set of shackles, his vitality will double.

If not for this so-called restriction, after achieving the Great Unification of Physical Body, wouldn't he be able to surpass the minimum limit of the Divine Human Realm of 2000? Ji Jingqiu nodded slightly. This was his Unparalleled Dao Foundation, breaking into the Mind Phase, and he could challenge the Divine Human Realm.

After Researcher A finished speaking, he hurriedly left.

It was just three months.

Ji Jingqiu was overjoyed.

A year ago, when he topped the White Jade Capital, this person had emptied his savings and bet two million on him, with odds of ten times...

The man in black was puzzled, "Why is that?"

Doctor Chen shook his head and didn't answer.

Doctor Chen pondered, "His standards are different. You can't compare him to the standard value of the Shackles Realm. You need to look at the higher layers. That way, you'll realize that he still has some way to go and room for improvement."

A familiar voice sounded from ahead.

He was regaining the feeling of the past.

After Ji Jingqiu bowed, he glanced at Lajiang's original body beside him and turned to leave.

"Only two paths?"

Ji Jingqiu arrived at the White Jade Capital, escorted by the Day and Night Dao Temple.

Meng Jiao from the Day and Night Dao Temple shrugged, "That's just how this divine technique is when I practice it. We're not fat; we're robust!"

Researcher A was speechless. So, even at less than 50%, it was still lacking?

Mu Chan Tian's footsteps paused, and he said, "Remember what I said before. I don't mind if you take action to rectify the Mu Clan."

"Senior Brother! Congratulations on your return from the Heaven Road!"

At the end of the banquet.

The sound of the sword ringing lingered, as if it had just awakened from a deep sleep, with a hint of curiosity, asking about Ji Jingqiu's performance on the ancient road.

In the end, it was shown that in the eyes of the former Holy King's divine system, the Shackles Realm, which had condensed a life stance, was considered a "combat power" worth noting.

[Haha, you've already achieved Heart Certification Embryo Breath, yet you still act so timidly. Do you enjoy hiding under others' wings so much?]



"This will be a great era. How can we let Brother Ji walk alone?"

Ji Jingqiu's consciousness returned to the real world.

Mu Chan Tian spoke calmly, "Two and a half months from now, we will set out for the Heaven Road and then embark on a long journey. During this half month, I hope you can visit several Martial Lineages."

After digesting the definition of vitality and mental cultivation from the Holy King's system, he suddenly thought of the Holy King's lineage and Chi Ji.

He shook his head slightly, dispelling a sense of discomfort.

"Junior is preparing to follow the path of He Senior and the others from back then, seeking the Dao across the Hundred Lineages."

This time, the long sword remained silent for a moment before trembling slightly and emitting a sword ringing sound.

The "vitality" system they were discussing originated from the relics of the Holy King's divine system.

The long sword remained silent for a moment.

Ji Anquan left the Four Guardians Star that very night and returned to the Ji Clan.

It had been over a year.

This secret technique, which enhanced the power of his strikes, had a fatal flaw: the backlash from each strike would increase as his realm improved.

After all, mental cultivation could be improved over time, but the vitality strength of the physical body...

Researcher A spoke solemnly, "I have inside information that the East 3 Huang Star might not be very safe in the future."

Ji Jingqiu briefly described his achievements on the ancient road, emphasizing his journey into the Illusory Mountain.

If he hadn't misheard, the "someone" mentioned by Senior Xuan Yi should be Elder Mu.

Heart Phase? The strongest few among the Hidden Dragons are still far from matching his future physique." Researcher A muttered.

"No wonder he's the Federation's number one genius in ten thousand years!" Researcher A couldn't help but exclaim, "By the way, boss, can you lend me some more money?"

Behind the mist, a deep crimson sun seemed to be hidden, and its light dyed the foggy sea with a deep red hue.

Therefore, whether they meet or not, the initiative is already in their own hands.

Up until now, the reason for his heavy-handedness is due to a significant factor: this secret technique.

The next second.

That is Hela, the genuine and authentic Wild Goddess.

A bit stronger? No, from Hela's perspective, it should be more appropriate to use "recovery."

The next two years will mark the beginning of the Federation's turmoil.

The younger generation of the Federation, who were on their way to the Ancient Road of the Nine Provinces, returned on this day.

It was as if a figure gathered all the beauty in the world, with long hair falling on the cold stone slabs, shimmering with a gentle radiance like moonlight, looking peaceful and serene.

The journey on the Ancient Road of the Nine Provinces allowed them to skip a decade of cultivation and truly witness bloodshed.

Everyone quieted down.

Ji Jingqiu greeted them with a smile and met his old friends.

"Where else would you go? The capital? The central area has the best conditions, and in the future, your children can have priority in choosing a dojo."

In terms of spiritual cultivation, they could still hold their own against Ji Jingqiu, standing side by side.

After a long while, a sword's ringing sound accompanied a message that entered his mind: [You've done well, surpassing your predecessors. I see hope for the future in you.]



The Divine Human Boundary is also known as the Divine Human Limit.

Ji Jingqiu dispelled his drunkenness and once again climbed to the top of the White Jade Capital, overlooking the Four Guardians, with the world at his feet.

He always felt that with Ji Jingqiu's talent and passion, they might still bring them more surprises.

This woman had entered the Ancient Road of the Nine Provinces with her physical body, claiming that her true body had already broken through the Divine Human Boundary.

A slight difference could lead to a gap of several or even tens of times in the future.

During the night's banquet, when they heard that Ji Jingqiu was currently walking the Hundred Channels' "old road," the crowd instantly erupted in excitement.

After leaving this message, Mu Chan Tian didn't give Ji Jingqiu the opportunity to ask more questions and left.

He believed that he had already reached the pinnacle.

"One, this is the World Esteemed One's Dharma Gate, which originally belonged to you. Keep it safe and wait for the day when you can cultivate and comprehend it."

After a brief silence, the young people erupted in excitement.

Researcher A's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile, "Boss, how about lending me some more money? I'm going to bet on Ji Jingqiu's journey through the Hundred Channels. If he succeeds, I'll win enough money for a house."

Apart from time and resource accumulation, it's all about combat.

The reason the Federation's capital isn't in the central area but is established in the North Zone is because the Federation's territory has a rift channel leading to the Heavenly Road, located in the North Zone! Therefore, the North Zone has always been heavily guarded, gathering top experts, and is the Federation's heartland.

And this time.

Researcher A silently wiped his sweat.

Is this the tacit approval of the Four Divine Lords?

"Understood!"

Is Hela's urgency related to the "Buddha"? He pondered.

The more human-like she behaves, the more it proves that she's in disguise, with hidden motives.

Seeing his subordinate's lack of understanding, he shook his head:

Ji Jingqiu closed his eyes, and the Fire House Hell Visualization Chart was triggered, guiding this light point into his inner world.

But at that time, Ji Jingqiu didn't have the qualifications to control it, and it's still the same now.

"Oh?" Doctor Chen became interested, "How many shackles has he broken free from?"

In the eyes of the Holy King's lineage, various systems are mixed, but vitality and spiritual cultivation run through the beginning and end, the source of life's strength.

Cooperation?

Ji Jingqiu walked out of the White Jade Capital alone, accompanied by Sui Canghai, and once again embarked on the journey to explore the Hundred Channels.

Doctor Chen's eyes flashed.

"Wait until Ji Jingqiu's martial arts reach fruition. He will undoubtedly choose East 3 Huang Star as his dojo. This planet will eventually become the Federation's martial arts holy land."

But 320 to 1280...

[Your understanding at this stage is exceptional. Your martial wisdom is no less than Ah He and the others. Since you've chosen this path, I'll point out another way. Have you continued to comprehend the Unification Principle I taught you?]



Doctor Chen paused.

The cruelty of life-and-death battles on the Ancient Road is akin to the "Natural Dao," which the Federation can't compare to. At least on the surface, the Federation maintains the rule of law.

"East 3 Huang Star, currently has a branch temple of a Divine Lord, and a channel leading to the Nine Provinces. It's also Ji Jingqiu's planet."

Not long after Ji Jingqiu left the lab, he received a message from Researcher A on his terminal.

But they don't seem to belong to the Many Worlds, and some believe they are chasing the [Abyss Sea].

After deciphering the ruins' contents, the Crimson Lab accessed the Federation's martial artist database and quickly summarized the corresponding data.

The man in black revealed a smile on his face. The greatest joy after returning home is seeing old friends.

"The Hundred Channels... This is the old road! The seniors of the past had all walked it, not just Grandmaster-level experts. I don't know when it was suppressed by various parties."

These young people, who were still at the True Seed Realm over a year ago, have now at least entered the late Divine Roaming Realm, or even the peak, not far from the Shackles Realm.

Or, a qualified warrior to conquer the Otherworld, adaptable to various harsh environments.

He took a few steps forward, punching the burly man's shoulder, and joked, "Hey, Meng, why are you getting fatter?"

"Ouch, why did you run ahead again, Ji?"

Researcher A sighed, "Married a gold-digging wife, gave birth to a money-eating beast. A house in the central area's school district, and I had to dig deep into my pockets!"

Doctor Chen's first assistant, Researcher A, personally welcomed him.

Because what appeared before him was Hela's main divine essence, purer than the inner world's bad woman, almost divine.

He loosened a bit of his spiritual defense.

"Everyone, I have a suggestion.

Action: Two years...

With each small lock of the Federation Martial Dao, the essence of life undergoes a corresponding leap.

The top 300 of the Federation's Hidden Dragon Ranking barely reaches this level! "If we follow this standard, after he achieves the unification of his physical body, his overall Heart Phase strength should reach about 70% of a Heaven Person Warrior..."

"Cooperation is possible, but it must be witnessed by several Divine Lords." Ji Jingqiu spoke with reverence.

Without a miraculous opportunity, it's simply unattainable.

Ji Jingqiu wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he felt that Hela's strength seemed to have...

Ji Jingqiu looked up, and as expected, he bowed respectfully, "Elder Mu!"

Crossing this threshold, it's like becoming an entirely different species. Otherwise, how could one be called 'Heaven'?"

"It's been confirmed that there are only two locks!"

Ji Jingqiu's heart trembled.

This made him even more vigilant. This woman's schemes were becoming more and more sophisticated. If she continued to recover, even those below the Heaven Person level might find it difficult to resist.

Elder Mu patted his shoulder and smiled, "Then we'll simplify the testing process. We can't conduct tests every time, so let's move the simplified testing equipment to the spaceship. That way, you won't have to make a trip to the Four Guardians Star each time."

The man in black laughed heartily and gave his junior a warm embrace.

At this moment, his most important task, aside from asking about the Hundred Channels, was to break free from the locks.

A 6th Breakthrough Realm martial artist with a life force of 1280 points and a 3rd Breakthrough Realm martial artist with 320 points—they were like two different species. Researcher A looked down at the data sheet and clicked his tongue, "Forget about the physique, this kid hasn't even reached the Heart Phase, yet his Heart Strength has already reached nearly 50% of the Unity of Heaven and Man. Is this the Fetal Breath Marvel? This kid is truly a monster!"

Researcher A was surprised, "Why don't you bet on yourself?"

He flicked his finger, and a light point flew into Ji Jingqiu's glabella.

...

Doctor Chen explained,

[What are your plans from now on?]



Doctor Chen's eyes flickered, "The standard life force value for two locks is 2. He has exceeded the conventional value by four times. According to the calculations recorded in the Holy King's ruins, when he breaks free from the six locks, his strength will be four times that of an ordinary 6th Breakthrough Realm martial artist."

But an ancient, simple longsword shattered the peace, piercing through her chest and embedding its tip deep into the rocks below.

...

As he spoke, he took a deep breath.

This was also a difference in Dao foundation.

For example, regardless of the base number, it would stop at around 1500 points...

A man in black emerged from the crack in the sky, and after undergoing the routine inspection by the Federation officials, he strode out of the passage.

[Do you remember our past collaboration? I wish to forge an alliance with you and formally commence our cooperation.]



Upon reaching the 6th Breakthrough and achieving the unification of his physical body, the greatest physical transformation before becoming a Heaven Person, the Heart Phase Warrior's strength would increase, but it was still too small to make up for the gap of over 900 points in life force.

Before that, he needed to possess the power to protect himself.

"Asking about the Hundred Channels, in its original form a million years ago, was a mutual exploration among various lineages. Perhaps this scene can be reenacted in the present day."

In the Nine Continents, this was known as the Divine Prohibition, and throughout history, those who broke the Divine Prohibition were few and far between.

He was here to see Elder Xuan Yi.

He remembered that Hela had indeed said that once he successfully reversed Innate, their cooperation would officially begin.

"Elder, your junior has returned from the Nine Continents." Ji Jingqiu's eyes burned with anticipation.

Ji Jingqiu took a deep breath.

Ji Jingqiu composed himself and shared some of his recent insights.

What was to come, would come.

Not far away, a slightly overweight martial artist greeted him with a warm smile, accompanied by several junior martial brothers and sisters who hurried over.

As the deep crimson mist gradually dissipated.

This person's eyes were filled with enthusiasm, and his attitude was unusually warm, so much so that Ji Jingqiu felt a little overwhelmed.

A cold hum emanated from the Heart Reflection Realm.

Ji Jingqiu's gaze followed the sound, and in the depths of the mist, he could vaguely make out a humanoid figure with a snake body, wearing a crown, and in his palm, a phantom resembling a rotating galaxy.

"The reason he can defeat enemies beyond his level is that his mind is too powerful. He borrows the power of heaven and earth to make up for his physical shortcomings."

"I admire you, Ji Jingqiu, for daring to walk this path! I salute you!"

"Sixth Breakthrough... But I've reached the Seventh Breakthrough." Ji Jingqiu murmured.

"I hope that before then, you'll have the power to protect yourself."

He wasn't here to see Lajiang.

Hearing Ji Anquan's words, many people's expressions turned serious, understanding his intentions.

Ji Anquan sent a message to Ji Jingqiu, and the two of them chatted in a private room for a long time before leaving separately.

I wonder how that crazy woman is doing now.

Doctor Chen said indifferently, "You're also an old-timer. All kinds of insider information can be found on the lab's internal network. Are you aware of the recent changes in the East 3 Huang Star?"

In a later conversation, Ji Jingqiu learned that...

Ji Jingqiu silently warned himself to remain vigilant and cautious, to be on guard against any potential traps.

Doctor Chen said indifferently, "The Federation's peak combat power has left, and from now on, Heaven Persons will dominate! We estimate that the Federation will maintain surface peace for about two years, and then, some long-suppressed conflicts will gradually be ignited."

Since he "cleaned up" the Federation's black market and reclaimed his money, some people couldn't afford to play anymore, so they united to boycott his entry.

Not far away, a familiar voice called out, and it was Ji Anquan.

"The specific data needs to be organized, and we'll send it to you later. You're free to act as you wish, like going back to the top of the White Jade Capital Tower."

Ji Jingqiu was also a little surprised that Ji Anquan would make such a suggestion.

Accompanied by a deep and long sword ringing sound.

"Alright, let's go see those young people who have returned."

...

Everyone was excited, and the emotions from witnessing Ji Jingqiu's ascent to the Ten Thousand Year Monument were released at this moment.

Doctor Chen narrowed his eyes, "That's fine, just use your account, and help me place some bets while you're at it."

Doctor Chen said indifferently, "Aren't you going to buy the house first?"

Chapter: The Ancient Road's Harvest

"Even if something happens and the house is gone, you can still get government compensation."

A faint sarcasm lingered in the air, and Ji Jingqiu felt an inexplicable fire rising in his heart, but it was quickly suppressed.

Ji Jingqiu, upon reaching the sixth breakthrough, would attain 128 points. After completing the unification of his physical body, his vitality would soar to a terrifying 1280 points, while an ordinary sixth-breakthrough practitioner's vitality would be only 320 points.

Bai Yujing's response had arrived.

Mu Chan Tian waved his hand, "No need for excessive politeness. I have two matters to discuss with you this time."

How much did this differ from 7.98-2?

For example...

Is this even human speech? Although he hadn't ventured down the path of martial arts, his identity naturally made him aware of the gap between heavenly beings and those beneath them.

Among the women he had encountered, Chi Ji was second only to La Jiang in terms of appearance, figure, and sheer craziness.

The crowd raised their cups and drank, creating a lively atmosphere.

The man in black released his grip, and divine light surged in his eyes as he laughed, "I've heard that the Federation has been quite lively recently, especially with a junior named Ji Jingqiu?"

[I remember that you cultivate the Formless Dao Body. Are you planning to continue on this path?]



Ji Jingqiu cleared his throat. This ancient road trip had not only helped La Jiang but also contributed to his martial arts journey, regardless of how genuine his intentions were.

Before leaving...

He made a slight movement, and ripples spread across the water's surface, extending into the depths of the mist.

Upon hearing this name, Meng Jiao's eyebrows furrowed, and his plump face twisted into a knot. He gritted his teeth, "Don't mention that name. I'd love to put a bounty on him in the black market and have someone take care of him!"

[The correct choice. If you continue on this path, it will greatly benefit your martial arts journey, both now and in the future.]



After Ji Jingqiu transmitted his secret technique, the sword's ringing gradually subsided. The divine weapon, once belonging to He Donghuang, sheathed its brilliance and fell silent.

This standard level of vitality strength was defined as [1].

Don't get the wrong idea.

In the corner, Ji Anquan, who had been receiving recent messages and intelligence, suddenly stepped forward with a smile, interrupting the group.

At this point, the simple multiplier difference had already created a glaring disparity.

That was He Shuai's former sword, which had responded to Ji Jingqiu when he first arrived here.

The next morning...

"Gently, gently..." Meng Jiao grimaced, "Your physique is getting more and more outrageous, Brother!"

With a soaring rate, would it trigger the upper limit?

"It's the Heavenly Being stage. When breaking through the Divine-Human Boundary, the martial artist will forge the Divine Human Body, and the lowest vitality standard for this stage is 2000 points!" Dr. Chen spoke solemnly, "He still has much room for improvement!"

And what's next?

Under Researcher A's guidance, Ji Jingqiu completed a full set of tests.

Meng Jiao spoke solemnly, "In just three months, he has picked over a dozen martial lineages. Moreover, he single-handedly revived the ancient tradition of seeking the Dao across lineages, causing chaos in the Federation!"

Will the future witness the breaking of the Divine-Human Boundary?

In the end, the light fell into the lotus pond, transforming into a brand-new lotus seed.

Corresponding to the six shackles.

Dr. Chen instructed,

Researcher A looked bewildered,

The Divine Seat.

According to Ji Jingqiu's recent gains in the Nine Continents, the true position of the Four Guardians of the Wilderness seemed to surpass even the Five Original Pillars.

These three months could pass without a ripple, in serene tranquility, or they could bring about a storm of changes, with hidden undercurrents stirring beneath the surface.

According to this calculation, after reaching the seventh breakthrough, his vitality should reach 256 points? And after unifying his physical body, his vitality would surge tenfold to 2560 points? Even Ji Jingqiu couldn't help but gasp in awe.

He looked up at the long-missed azure sky, feeling a sense of satisfaction and wonder.

1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32 points of vitality.

"Compile the data and give it to Ji Jingqiu."

Researcher A exclaimed, "Quadruple? The standard vitality for the sixth breakthrough is 32 points. If he breaks through the sixth shackle, won't he gain 128 points? And after unifying his physical body, his vitality will increase tenfold—"

This data was simply terrifying. According to their previous calculations, the top ten on the Federation's Hidden Dragon Ranking, known as the peak of the Mind Phase, collectively reached only four to five times the minimum standard for Heavenly Being martial artists! To Ji Jingqiu, these individuals were all "senior elders."

This secret technique was precisely what he needed for his future, and someone was waiting for him.

Dr. Chen frowned, "What are you thinking? Are you planning to buy a house in the central area?"

As Ji Jingqiu pondered, a voice echoed from the depths of the mist, lazy and cold, yet with a hint of allure that made him agree to any request.

Here...

"Ji Jingqiu?"

Deep Red Laboratory.

Unfortunately, this thing required the burning of life's foundation, which needed time to settle.

Ji Jingqiu nodded.

The side effects were evident.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar◇Go

Oh well, let's see, maybe there's something to it.

Ji Anquan smiled, "Brother Ji has set a good example. Why shouldn't we follow in his footsteps?"

Ji Jingqiu's gaze shifted.

Hearing this voice, many shivered, instinctively reacting, and some even clenched their fists.

As Bai Lu Shibo speculated, with the departure of Grandmaster-level martial artists, the Federation would likely witness a grand competition between heavenly beings.

He walked straight to the depths of Bai Yujing, the place where La Jiang's physical body was imprisoned.

Time passed.

The man in black burst into laughter, "Seeking the Dao across lineages, it sounds so thrilling! With such a spectacle in the Federation, how can martial arts not flourish? What are you afraid of?"

Meng Jiao grimaced, "Brother, you've just returned and don't know the situation. I won't blame you, but you should know that Master has issued an ultimatum. If we can't defeat this kid in three moves, we'll all be sent back to seclusion, and if we can't become Mind Phase warriors, we won't be allowed to leave seclusion!"

"And I've heard that someone has indeed offered a hefty bounty in the black market, hiring assassins to kill him!" The man in black's expression turned serious, "You said three moves?"
