Chapter 166: Chapter 157: Summary, Qiankun Circle, and Spirit Pearl
"Cyan Cloud Sword Leader..."
"Cyan Cloud Sword Leader..."
The call like traveling through time and space quietly echoed from the depths of the "Celestial Derivation Volume," gradually converging into an irresistible sound wave, eventually transforming into a surging tide of all beings, reverberating constantly.
"Purple Sky Immortal Island, Loose Cultivator Ancestor!"
"Teaching without distinction, treating all equally!"
"At the peak of Cliff Mountain, Cyan Cloud Sword Leader!"
"Under the Immortal Slaying Sword, speak not of Celestial Mandate!"
In the center of the cover of the Celestial Derivation Volume, a majestic mountain abruptly emerged, beneath it was the turbulent sea, at the summit of the mountain, a cyan robe back stands silently, holding a long sword, sitting in desolation, staring at the brilliant golden Great Sun.
Ning Xunqiu was stunned.
It took a long time before he came back to his senses from the call of "all beings."
points of Fortune?!
He immediately looked at the Fortune column.
[Fortune: 1039/1560]
A great harvest.
Ning Xunqiu’s eyes brightened.
"This Celestial Derivation Life Record is indeed perfect. By acting on a whim, facing the Three Holy Ancestor Dragons prematurely, it actually led me to win this Great Tribulation of Heaven and Earth, heading towards a completely different outcome, thus gaining an opportunity for Attainment."
"It’s just a pity, I cannot reincarnate, unable to obtain information about the Otherworldly Divine..."
This was one of the purposes of rewriting this life. However, with the "Immortal Slaying Sword Map" and Donghuang Taiyi’s Magical Power" compensating for the last shortcomings, obviously, he couldn’t bear these divines.
But this is enough.
"Cyan Cloud Sword Leader" with Daoist Virtue, Taixuan, Butian, and Ancestral Dragon in a battle provides a wealth of information. As long as he is willing to pay a sufficient price, he can suppress the Three Holy Ancestor Dragons.
In the Celestial Derivation Life Record, he cannot reincarnate, because once reincarnated, the probability is extremely high that rewriting a life would stop.
Moreover, "Cyan Cloud Sword Leader" still needs to deter the divines.
But in reality, he can repeat this road again, with Master Liuli, Uncle Linglong, and the Immortal Slaying Sword Map protecting the Dao. Once suppressing the Three Holy Ancestor Dragons, winning the Great Tribulation of Heaven and Earth, Great Fortune accompanies, he can boldly reincarnate and attain the Dao.
Though not perfect, this is considered a good path.
Ning Xunqiu noted down this alternative life path.
Then silently reciting to extract the reward in his heart.
[Extracting Golden Reward...]
[Congratulations, you obtained the Golden Life Achievement Reward—Supreme Treasure: Immortal Slaying Sword Map of Cyan Cloud Sword Leader!]
Supreme Treasure: Immortal Slaying Sword Map?!
Isn’t this the only one?
Ning Xunqiu was shocked, he didn’t expect to be able to extract the "Immortal Slaying Sword Map."
He waited quietly for a long while, yet the surroundings were still silent.
But at this moment, within his Primordial Spirit, the "Immortal Slaying Sword Map" suddenly trembled violently.
Sword of Chaos, manifested.
Sword of Despair, manifested.
Subsequently, an ancient sword filled with slaughter qi manifested out of thin air.
Ning Xunqiu looked at that ancient sword, fine strands of sword intent stinging his gaze with faint pain, his mind instantly conjured the name of the ancient sword—Immortal Slaying Sword!
Information accompanied the sword’s body.
Immortal Slaying Sword·Unique, the Heaven and Earth Great Tribulation Qi and Cyan Cloud Sword Leader’s Three Souls and Seven Spirits Will, combined with Gold, Great Dao Divine if true body hit by this sword, dissolves spirituality, annihilates Dao Fruit.
But the "Heaven and Earth Great Tribulation Qi" collected from the Ancestral Dragon to destroy the world is finite, insufficient to counter the Celestial Dao, annihilate "Dao Fruit," please use this sword with caution.
[Supreme Treasure: Immortal Slaying Sword Map·Unrefined]
Though Cyan Cloud Sword Leader has not attained the Dao, he’s already half of "One."
Cyan Cloud Sword Leader sat on Cliff Mountain for Eight Hundred Years, took from Ying Long the Ancestral Dragon’s "Incomplete Fallen Saint Spear," crafted the complete version of "Immortal Slaying Sword·Unique."
Also, infused "Great Fortune of Heaven and Earth" and "half of one" into the incomplete Immortal Slaying Sword Map, thus refined into a "Slaughter Treasure."
Note:
Possessing a complete "Four Swords" of the "Immortal Slaying Sword Map," should effortlessly counter the joint force of four "Great Dao Divines."
...
Ning Xunqiu noticed the word "effortlessly," his eyes lit up.
In the Celestial Derivation Life Record, against the Three Saints with "Great Dao Spiritual Treasure," strictly speaking, he fought four one-on-one fights.
In the first battle, he could show weakness to the enemy, at the cost of shattering the Immortal Slaying Sword Map, lure Venerable of Dao and Virtue to strike, then with a trace of Donghuang Taiyi’s Magical Power, effortlessly suppress the "Venerable of Dao and Virtue" in the Sword of Chaos.
Divine beings relying on Great Dao Spiritual Treasure, having Qingxu Realm Heavenly Dao as backing, act recklessly.
This is a disparity of information.
But in the second battle, it’s impossible to suppress Taixuan Daoist without harm, that "Great Dao Spiritual Treasure" isn’t weaker than "Sword of Chaos," he chose to fight with "Red Flame Celestial Mandate," at the cost of life, to gain the chance to suppress "Taixuan Daoist."
In the third battle, it was with a single beat of "Donghuang Bell" to decide it, yet Ning Xunqiu recalled the previous text in Celestial Derivation Volume, it merely froze "Daoist Butian" for a hundred years, just a moment to them.
Additionally, the information on suppressing Taixuan Daoist, Ning Xunqiu can see at that time he definitely did not have the assurance to suppress divines under the shelter of "Great Dao Spiritual Treasure," thus need to trade lives.
The divines’ "Great Dao Spiritual Treasure" cannot be underestimated, even able to weaken the power of "Donghuang Bell."
The key point being, Ning Xunqiu’s means, couldn’t destroy their true forms in a short time.
If the Three Saints escaped, having suffered once greatly, knowing the mysteries of the "Immortal Slaying Sword Map," they surely wouldn’t think of "quick victory" again, they would take great patience to deal with the Ancestral Dragon, Ning Xunqiu even with four strands of Donghuang Taiyi’s magical power could not possibly outlast the Three Saints’ Great Dao Spiritual Treasure.
As for the fourth battle, Ning Xunqiu laid all cards, Primordial Spirit crumbling, magical power dispersing, flesh body shattered, nearing utterly perishing.
In such a state, the Ancestral Dragon had no idea how to lose... so it lost.
Ning Xunqiu having experienced it once, truly understands this mentality. I am invincible under heaven, even if standing here unmoving, would you really defeat me in an instant?
He could distinctly sense the "Great Dao Divine" kind of reckless "underestimating," too confident, after probing "Donghuang Taiyi" magical power depths, began to play daringly.
They fundamentally did not regard Ning Xunqiu as a person.
No matter how many Daoist treasures Ning Xunqiu displayed, they were only slightly surprised. Ning Xunqiu always felt that they were very experienced in dealing with "Daoist treasures," so they treated the "Immortal Slaying Sword Map" as a usual Daoist treasure, which eventually led to their downfall.
However, Ning Xunqiu felt that being able to defeat the strong with the weak showed he had quite a talent for "magical combat."
At the same time, he became more cautious, realizing his capability to "defeat the strong with the weak" relied entirely on the "underestimation" of the Three Saints and the Ancestral Dragon. If he relied solely on the Immortal Slaying Sword Map thinking he was invincible under heaven and then underestimated other divine beings, he was bound to suffer a big setback.
Life summary.
The victory this time was purely by chance.
In this view, in a one-on-one magical combat, with equal information between both parties, the Three Saints and the Ancestral Dragon not being reckless, he couldn’t confidently say he would steadily win against any one of them.
Yet the complete four swords of the "Immortal Slaying Sword Map" was specially noted by the "Cyan Cloud Sword Leader" to be able to "easily" counter four Great Dao Divine beings joining forces.
Those four jointly, needless to say.
Ning Xunqiu felt a full sense of security, his heart excited, but he sternly admonished himself.
Stay composed.
Don’t be reckless.
Then, with a thought, he checked the brand-new "Immortal Slaying Sword Map" information.
Heaven of All Living Beings · Donghuang Bell, has returned.
Great Dao Divine Skill: Jade Sky Streaming Light Galaxy, has returned.
Sword of Chaos, has returned.
Sword of Despair, has returned.
Immortal Slaying Sword, has returned.
Sword of Freedom, not yet returned.
...
"The Immortal Slaying Sword Map is not yet complete, only lacking Ming Yue. If she establishes her Sword Dao lineage to attain the Dao based on this, it should suffice for this final sword..."
Ning Xunqiu glanced at the "Dongfang Mingyue" floating behind him, who was still immersed in enlightening the true meaning of Sword Dao, pondering in his heart.
Only a perfected four-sword "Immortal Slaying Sword Map" could "easily" counter four Great Dao Divine beings.
This is crucial for the next few lifetimes,
he can also continue to ascend the "Martial Dao," attempting to attain the Dao.
He quickly glanced over the information on the panel.
[Fortune: 1039/1560]
"This Fortune is enough for me to squander..."
"Wait, first see how much Fortune is needed to rewrite life in the Qingxu Realm in the future."
Suddenly, a sense of unexplained unease welled up in Ning Xunqiu’s heart, flipping through the drastically changed Celestial Derivation Volume to rewrite life.
[After I attain the Dao...]
[Would you like to use eight hundred points of Fortune to rewrite this portion of life?]
"Carrying such an Immortal Slaying Sword Map to rewrite life requires only eight hundred points of Fortune, still within an acceptable range."
Ning Xunqiu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, the heavy stone in his heart finally settled.
He had previously feared that in the "Qingxu Realm," this number would turn into a staggering astronomical figure.
If it truly required over ten thousand points of Fortune, then he’d be a bit flustered.
At least for now, he still has one chance to rewrite life.
However...
"If I rewrite life again, I might not be able to resist making a move against the Three Saints."
Ning Xunqiu shook his head, choosing not to continue rewriting his life.
These eight hundred points of Fortune only suffice to alter the thoughts of life at this point, just an introduction, while the subsequent life is not for Ning Xunqiu’s will to control, even if he continually hints to himself here to meditate and cultivate in Cyan Mountain.
Resist, resist, resist.
Minor impatience spoils great plans.
For when that day comes, after all my hard work attaining the Dao, refining the Supreme Treasure "Immortal Slaying Sword Map," why should I bear it? The more I think, the more anger rises; no way, pick up the "Immortal Slaying Sword Map" and explode with them.
Of course, Ning Xunqiu didn’t choose to rewrite life for other reasons — repeated lives are meaningless.
Wasting eight hundred points of Fortune would likely yield little, it would be better used to open up new worlds.
As for the "Otherworldly Divine" that pierced the Celestial Vault of the Qingxu Realm...
Ning Xunqiu resisted rewriting life’s exploration of the "Otherworldly Divine’s" secrets and began refining the "Immortal Slaying Sword Map."
Three months passed in the blink of an eye.
Ning Yu was born.
She inherited the "Splendid Celestial Wind Spirit Body," naturally fond of the wind, relying on her talent, she could stir winds and clouds.
On her first birthday.
Gao Fei Xue let the Chaotic Heaven Silk Big White Goose protect Ning Yu closely, and Ah Qing, having nothing much, simply transformed the Dragon-Slaying Sword Little Cyan Snake into a Peace Circle to hang around her neck, and the rest of the Cyan Mountain people each offered gifts to the son of the Daoist Master.
Ning Yu laughed happily, liking all these gifts, and Gao Fei Xue even specially established a private courtyard for her to treasure them.
The couple led Ning Yu to meet people, and went around to various uncles and elders on Purple Bamboo Mountain to request gifts, Linglong Fairy exited the pass, splitting a piece of Nine Bends Flowing Clouds and Radiance from her "Lifebound Spiritual Treasure," allowing Liuli Immortal Venerable to refine it into a golden bracelet.
It’s an embryonic magical treasure.
This treasure possesses partial power of a spiritual treasure, Ning Yu only needs to activate the "bracelet" to be in a place immune to all laws, she loved it dearly, naming it herself as "Qiankun Circle."
Fairy Caiyun cherished "Ning Yu" even more, leaving three strands of spiritual magical power in the "Qiankun Circle."
Truly a body full of treasures.
Not long after, the Three Immortals of Jade Sky accepted "Ning Yu" as the second generation disciple of Jade Sky Immortal Island, and even gave her the Daoist name "Spirit Pearl."
Ning Xunqiu had rewritten life several times, knowing Ning Yu’s temperament, and together with Gao Fei Xue, they accompanied their daughter, teaching her well.
