In a short time, he would be unable to advance to the Martial Saint Realm again. The True Man Celestial Sword before him might have more hope.
Blade Demon continued:
"That sense of immense terror is just one aspect. To step into the Martial Saint Realm, the key may lie in mastering the Power of Heaven and Earth, not in our crude manipulation, but in precise control, refining it into an existence like our Gang Qi. In that case, it would surely unlock a powerful and unparalleled force!"
There was some yearning and hope in his eyes, but he quickly shook his head and said:
"But it’s not easy. Previously, when I absorbed the Power of Heaven and Earth into my body, I could feel its terrifying power, but I just ’gulped’ it down. Essentially, there was no difference whether it was inside or outside me."
"After thinking carefully over these past few days, the key points might be two."
"Firstly, how to ’digest’ this Power of Heaven and Earth, which requires countless trials. Secondly, where to store the ’digested’ Power of Heaven and Earth. If it’s randomly filled into the body, it would be like that day when I almost exploded and died, and even brother Celestial Sword couldn’t save me."
Ning Qi listened to Blade Demon explaining the details of breaking the realm.
That day, although he was close, he couldn’t sense the many situations within Blade Demon’s body so clearly. Now, listening to Blade Demon, combined with his previous observations, he suddenly felt as if the clouds had parted, revealing a clear view.
In his mind, Spiritual Light was rising, and he gradually gained an outline of the Martial Saint Realm.
This time, it was truly an invaluable harvest.
With solemnity, Ning Qi said:
"Thank you, brother Blade Demon, for your generous enlightenment."
Blade Demon merely waved his hand.
"I owe great debts to brother Celestial Sword. Such minor insights from failure are not worth mentioning."
Ning Qi pondered for a moment and said:
"I also have some insights. Brother Blade Demon, why not give them a listen?"
Blade Demon’s eyes brightened, assuming a posture of intent listening.
Ning Qi slowly began to speak.
Though he lacked experience in breaking the realm, he gleaned much inspiration from the pages left by Wu Jianghe. With his perception, a slight extrapolation made it as though he personally experienced breaking the realm. For instance, listening to Blade Demon reveal his realm insights, Ning Qi felt as if he had experienced a realm break again—if not more. He could extrapolate multiple times, gaining far more than Blade Demon himself.
He combined both aspects and shared some of the essence within.
Instantly, Blade Demon listened, enchanted.
The light in Blade Demon’s dark pupils shone brilliantly, muttering repeatedly:
"The intent of the Martial Path not only governs the Three Flowers but can also blend with them. In this way, the Power of Heaven and Earth drawn in may become more controllable, more ’obedient.’"
"Accommodating the Power of Heaven and Earth can turn oneself into a furnace. Enhancing the furnace’s strength is crucial—not merely the body’s inherent strength, but also ’sculpting,’ like an alchemy furnace, where the fundamental material’s strength is just one aspect, with the various wards on it being equally critical."
"As for where to store the refined Power of Heaven and Earth, replacing the Primordial Core might be a good choice. Exchanging a strand of refined Power of Heaven and Earth for a strand of Gang Qi is indeed a brilliant idea—a truly brilliant idea!"
"So that’s how it is... so that’s how it is!"
The more Blade Demon listened, the more delirious he became, the more excited he grew, unable to resist clapping his hands and laughing heartily. Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵✦𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖✦𝙣𝙚𝙩
When he finally collected himself, he bowed to Ning Qi, utterly convinced. His eyes were full of admiration, feeling that Ning Qi’s words had opened the door to a new world for him.
"Brother Celestial Sword, great kindness requires no thanks, accept my bow!"
Ning Qi merely smiled, then said:
"Brother Blade Demon, there’s no need for this. We are merely discussing the Dao. This discussion is just my conjecture; take what aligns with your journey as just a reference."
Blade Demon nodded, his spirit soaring.
He truly believed that if anyone in this world could step into the Martial Saint Realm, it would undoubtedly be True Man Celestial Sword!
