Chapter 625: Chapter 486: Heavenly Emperor’s Myriad Tribulations Yin Spirit Apotheosis Golden Canon (Part 2)
In an instant, countless spiritual thoughts surged into Qi Mang’s mind like a tide.
Ong~
It was as if the Profound Gate had been opened, and his aura changed accordingly, stepping into the Manifestation Realm in one step!
Then it continued to soar crazily at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The aura stabilized rapidly after a moment of instability, then steadily broke through to the Mid-stage, Late-stage of Manifestation...
Manifestation Perfection!
Under the nourishment of the grand Dao Rhyme, his Yin Soul was solidified like a Vajra.
The vast energy accumulated and collided crazily within him, as if it would explode his physical body and Divine Soul.
If it weren’t for the Dao Rhyme around to guide and sort it, he would have long died from energy overload, turning into flying ashes.
"Awaken!"
A clear, resonant Dao Sound rang out, like a thunderclap in the depths of Qi Mang’s Divine Soul.
The entire origin of the Pan Wu Realm shook violently, the sun, moon, and stars bowed, and the Cloud Sea churned like it was boiling.
Qi Mang shuddered all over, awakened in an instant, feeling unsettled as he sensed his own state, with disbelief in his eyes.
He introspected himself, the Yin Soul in Manifestation Perfection was solid like steel, surrounded by a faint Dao Rhyme, warm yet grand.
Compared to the method of evolving Sun and Moon Essence, Star Qi, and Heaven and Earth Essence in the "Great Yin Refining Form Manifestation Scripture," this Dao Rhyme was many times more profound, far beyond his imagination.
Ordinary Manifestation Realm cultivators need to temper their Divine Soul with Gold Stone Qi, with a mixed foundation.
But what he absorbed was the innate origin Dao Rhyme of the Pan Wu Realm, a foundation a hundred or a thousand times deeper than cultivators of the same realm, making future cultivation much smoother.
At this moment.
The original form of the White Tiger God and Demon converged, slowly transforming into Chen Sheng’s Daoist form, cloaked in a Xuanhuang Daoist Robe, the Dao Rhyme restrained.
Seemingly ordinary, yet more unfathomable, as if he embodied a world, every move affecting the operation of the Laws.
Qi Mang dared not look directly anymore, hurriedly bowed and prostrated himself, his gesture respectful to the extreme, while his heart moved silently.
It turns out that my master and I are of the same clan; no wonder he broke the norm to take me as a disciple.
"Thank you, senior, for your enlightenment!"
Chen Sheng nodded lightly, the Dao Sound calm yet carrying the majesty of heaven and earth, resounding throughout the grand hall:
"It’s also because you laid a solid foundation over the past two months, with a concentrated Heart Spirit, that you could grasp the essence at once and achieve this transformation."
"If not for your stable temperament, it would be difficult to bear this opportunity even with the blessing of creation."
His move was also going with the flow—previously, the volume of scriptures served both to test Qi Mang’s aptitude and comprehension and to help him solidify his foundation, paving the way for his path to Manifestation.
Although Qi Mang’s aptitude and comprehension were average, his steady temperament and practical understanding made him able to take on this creation, achieving this leapfrog enhancement.
"I am true to my words; from now on, you are a Named Disciple under me."
Qi Mang was overjoyed, hurriedly knelt and paid his respects, his forehead touching the ground, his voice loud and sincere:
"Disciple Qi Mang, paying respects to Master!"
Chen Sheng nodded slightly:
"Mm."
"I am Pan Wu Daoist, Hall Master of Scripture Transmission at the Antarctic Immortal Mansion in the Spirit Realm."
"I have two cultivation techniques to pass on to you."
"The first is the ’Nine Volumes of Illusory Heart.’ I once had a disciple who cultivated this technique; his condition was similar to yours, with slightly inferior aptitude and comprehension but excellent temperament, eventually achieving the position of top Great Power."
"The second is the ’Heavenly Emperor’s Ten-Thousand Tribulations Yin Spirit Transforming into Holy Gold Chapter,’ deduced by me a few days ago based on your current cultivation method, which aligns with you; the cultivation technique incorporates the Dao of Tribulation, with infinite potential."
"To what extent you can cultivate depends on your own destiny."
"What do you choose?"
Qi Mang’s heart moved. Although he did not know what kind of realm ’top Great Power’ is, it must be an existence that transcends the mortal and overlooks heaven and earth.
But he almost without hesitation, looked firmly at Chen Sheng, and solemnly said:
"Master, disciple wishes to cultivate the ’Heavenly Emperor’s Ten-Thousand Tribulations Yin Spirit Transforming into Holy Gold Chapter’!"
This is the cultivation technique specifically deduced by Master for him, sure to be the most suitable for him, and certainly the one Master hopes he chooses.
He knows well his average aptitude, and only by following Master’s guidance can he go further.
Seeing this, Chen Sheng nodded lightly.
He was originally inclined for Qi Mang to choose the ’Heavenly Emperor’s Ten-Thousand Tribulations Yin Spirit Transforming into Holy Gold Chapter.’
This cultivation technique is also his attempt to cultivate the Dao of Tribulation.
If perfected through Qi Mang, it might provide him a few insights for breaking through the third step of Integration.
Making a casual move, even with only a minuscule probability, is worth it for him.
However, he also had a backup plan earlier. If Qi Mang chose the ’Nine Volumes of Illusory Heart,’ he would seek another person to deduce this technique. Now, Qi Mang’s choice perfectly fits his intention.
Chen Sheng spoke no more, flicked his fingertip.
"Whoosh—"
A beam of golden light shot from the fingertip, carrying all the profound meanings of the ’Heavenly Emperor’s Ten-Thousand Tribulations Yin Spirit Transforming into Holy Gold Chapter,’ instantly flying into Qi Mang’s brow.
The profound meanings of the cultivation technique surged into his sea of consciousness like a tide, with illustrated explanations, and the Dao Sound lingered, explaining every cultivation point thoroughly.
Qi Mang closed his eyes for a moment, and upon opening them, his heart was already overwhelmed with shock.
The cultivation technique deduced by Master unexpectedly continued to extend several realms beyond the stages of Soul-Settling, Soul-Traveling, Object-Manipulating, and Manifestation, far surpassing his previous understanding of cultivation.
He, who had presided over Mang Mountain for years, had collected countless cultivation secrets.
He knew well that the cultivation system of the Era of Decline had taken tens of thousands of years to perfect to the Manifestation Realm, yet his master could easily deduce subsequent realms.
This earth-shattering Great Power had long let the respect in his heart surpass the sky.
"Disciple thanks Master for the transmission!"
Qi Mang kneeled again and bowed, his respect evident beyond words.
Chen Sheng waved his hand, surrounded by the flow of Dao Rhyme, resonating with Heaven and Earth Laws:
