819: Chapter 218: You’re Here?
On a higher level, Gu Luo and Ancient Locust burst into laughter, while Phoenix Chao Fei glanced down with a look that screamed, “I don’t know this Phoenix.”
As if he hadn’t heard a thing, Feng Qi glared at the red-faced general, the very picture of someone ready to charge out of the Fairy Ascension Platform with him at any moment to fight a battle of life and death.
He seemed not to have heard the laughter from above, but his wings couldn’t help trembling.
“Idiot!” Phoenix Chao Fei muttered.
It would be wise to step down and cultivate properly.
Clearly struggling to persevere, yet stubbornly pushing on.
If really unable to hold on, just find an excuse to dash downwards.
Is it a loss of face to fall from the second level of the Fairy Ascension Platform?
The might of the Gang Wind on the Fairy Ascension Platform depends on the number of entrants, as well as their own Tao Cultivation.
Reaching the second level is the mark of a true genius.
It has little to do with bloodline or inheritance, but represents one’s innate gift.
Feng Qi’s ability to break into the top hundred of the Bai Ze List speaks for itself.
His talent and abilities need no further mention.
A guardian of the top hundred is also just that, a top hundred!
In any world, they are beings who suppress all others; in any war, they have the power to alter its course.
For them, sometimes the difference between the first and second levels is just a sliver of inspiration.
Truly speaking, Feng Qi’s cultivation hasn’t even started, he hasn’t truly found his “Tao”!
He made it to the top hundred relying solely on bloodline and innate gifts.
Instead of stubbornly maintaining face on the first level, it would be better for him to stay more comfortably on the second level.
The Fairy Ascension Platform, naturally, isn’t that simple; mere ancient Qi doesn’t deserve such a grand name.
Ancient Qi can be found in some ancient Secret Lands or undiscovered relics.
But only the Fairy Ascension Platform can help one to comprehend the “Tao”!
The “Tao” is the foundation of cultivation!
A cultivator reaching Stepping Sky Six-fold is known as climbing the Stepping Heaven Ladder.
The ladder is the condensation of one’s own Tao.
At its end, the Fairy Sect appears, and at Stepping Sky Seven-fold, one knocks on the Immortal’s Door.
If one can push open the Fairy Sect’s door and step through, they will instantly become an Immortal, blessed with eternal life.
When a Divine God Beast that Open the Heaven, each time the Opening Heaven Divine Artifact manifests, it is a condensation of the Tao.
Seven Opening the Heavens means at least seven types of Tao, and after Opening Heaven Seven-fold, one must truly confirm their own Tao within their Inner World, derive the Tao, and walk its path.
Although the Boundary Status will not increase as markedly as before with each successive Opening the Heaven, Tao Cultivation can be endlessly improved.
Even within Opening Heaven Seven-fold, the difference in Tao Cultivation between the Four Tribes’ ancestors and a top hundred guardian like Feng Qi is as vast as the heavens are from the earth!
Only after a long moment following the laughter from the first level did Feng Qi glance back at Gu Luo and Ancient Locust.
He’d settle this score sooner or later!
But one knows their own limitations; competing in Tao Cultivation seemed out of reach.
He glanced surreptitiously at Phoenix Chao Fei.
His sixth sister was back.
Their Phoenix Clan wasn’t like those old bachelors of the Dragon Turtle Tribe, who had no eligible females.
The Phoenix Clan had them!
Maybe he could negotiate with his sixth sister, try to sire a chick, and flaunt it before them in mockery?
A bunch of old bachelors, lineage ending with them!
While Feng Qi was harboring these thoughts, his feathers suddenly stood on end, a sense of a life-and-death crisis descending from the heavens.
He instantly turned pale, a tidal wave of shock rising in his heart!
Here in the Fairy Ascension Platform, who would dare emit such a murderous aura.
Looking up, his gaze met Phoenix Chao Fei’s ice-cold eyes.
A chill of murderous intent.
Could mere thoughts be sensed?
With a shrug, Feng Qi’s head began to shake like a rattle drum.
Better to give it up and sincerely cultivate.
He would look for Su He later.
The space where Su He stored ghost creatures contained Yuan Qi suitable for his cultivation.
He’d ask Su He where that kind of Yuan Qi came from.
He always felt that therein lay the Tao meant for him.
Feng Qi’s Phoenix True Fire carried a hint of Netherworld Qi, and in truth, Feng Zhong was his actual cultivation paradise.
But Feng Zhong wasn’t normally accessible; he couldn’t even find the entrance, let alone get in.
Feng Qi stopped pondering, and nodded at the fellow cultivators above, indicating he was fine.
He then found a spot to nestle in the white clouds, no longer affected by external distractions.
On the first level, Emperor Luan and Su He shared a look.
Emperor Luan’s face still wore a faint smile, but his true thoughts remained unknown to others.
He slowly closed his eyes, seemingly immersed in cultivation.
Only he knew of his astonishment.
This Turtle actually ascended to the first level!
Could this be considered a self-fulfilling prophecy?
The crowd below remained silent, only the red-faced general, having managed to regain his complexion, now raised a tinge of annoyance on his face, snorted with self-derision, and chided himself: what an idiot!
His Majesty had already predicted that Turtle would reach the first level.
Emperor Luan’s eyebrows twitched.
His eyes closed tightly, he remained silent.
For reasons unknown, starting a moment ago, the power of mind-reading magic skills on the first level had suddenly intensified.
That stupid Phoenix down there had his thoughts sensed by Phoenix Chao Fei.
The same went for this idiot!
Is it because Ji Feixue has arrived that such magic skills are enhanced?
Or is it because of that Little Turtle brat, or Su He?
Indeed, cultivators entering the Fairy Ascension Platform could impact it, but under normal circumstances, it would enhance the Gang Wind and Yuan Qi.
Could they also add properties to the Fairy Ascension Platform?
At this moment, everyone on the first level who sensed the changes was contemplating.
Su He had no such magic skills but could vaguely perceive the emotions of the official cultivators around him.
There were simply too many cultivators to distinguish them one by one.
Only those who looked in his direction could he faintly sense.
Envy, amazement, jealousy, admiration…
All four of the Dragon Turtles from the Mystery Yellow Cave had now settled on the first level, aside from Ya Ya, who was just playing around.
The remaining three had earned their way up.
Even if Su He was suspected of cheating.
