Chapter 140: Origin
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Qi Ming walked towards the inheritance hall. The door had always been open, and several legacy disciples walked out. When they saw Qi Ming, their expressions were slightly surprised as they cupped their hands and bowed to him.
“Greetings, Legacy Disciple Qi.”
The tone of these legacy disciples was very respectful.
Qi Ming did not feel anything and nodded as a response.
In the next two days, news that Qi Ming had set up an arena in front of the Heaven Enlightenment Immortal Mountain and challenged all the legacy disciples had long spread.
Moreover, Qi Ming’s spirit pets’ combat strength was heaven-defying. Many legacy disciples combined were not Qi Ming’s spirit pets’ match.
Hearing such news, many legacy disciples of the Heaven Enlightenment Immortal Mountain who did not participate in this were shocked.
They felt that it was impossible.
How could a spirit pet be so powerful?
However, this was the truth.
They had to believe it even if they did not want to.
Apart from that, there was also Gongyang Zhige of the Body Tempering lineage who had lost to Qi Ming. Moreover, he had lost in the Dao of Body Tempering. The news spread throughout the Heaven Enlightenment Immortal Mountain, and all the legacy disciples of the various lineages knew.
Most importantly, Gongyang Zhige was at the early-stage Soul Formation realm, but Qi Ming’s cultivation level was only at the early-stage Nascent Soul realm. The difference in cultivation between the two was immense.
Nascent Soul, Leaving Aperture, and Soul Formation.
There was a difference of the Leaving Aperture realm in the middle.
Qi Ming had won, but Gongyang Zhige had lost.
He lost completely.
Such an outcome made everyone who knew the news dumbfounded.
It was extremely shocking.
They could not recover from their shock for a long time.
Unknowingly, Qi Ming’s various images had already gradually seeped into the hearts of people. Qi Ming’s image was that of a powerful existence with heaven-defying potential and invincible combat strength.
Very strong.
Very strong!
Unbelievably strong!
In front of Qi Ming, if you did not have the cultivation level of the Soul Formation realm, you would have to lower your head and be submissive. Even if you had the cultivation level of the Soul Formation realm, you might not be Qi Ming’s match.
Gongyang Zhige was the best example.
These things were actually a good thing for Qi Ming because this way, not only would he become famous, but he could also avoid many troubles.
At the very least, no one would dare to casually find trouble with Qi Ming again.
Moreover, everyone was very respectful to Qi Ming.
Qi Ming walked into the legacy hall. The situation inside was beyond Qi Ming’s expectations. The inheritance hall had its own space. It was clearly only a three-story palace, but the space inside was like a small world.
He looked around and saw a cylinder.
The surrounding bookshelves were like a spiral staircase that kept spreading upwards. When he raised his head, he could barely see the end of the surrounding bookshelves.
All he could say was there were too many books, cultivation techniques, inheritances, and spells in the Legacy Hall. There were countless of them, and they were like an ocean or a vast starry sky.
This was the inheritance collection of all the inheritances and cultivation methods since the Heaven Enlightenment Sect was established. They were all taken into the inheritance hall, and the history of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect was very long. It could be traced back to the end of the ancient era.
It had been a long time.
At this moment, the Immortal Ascension Token at Qi Ming’s waist lit up, shining with a pure white light that fused into the space in front of him, turning into a white door that was three meters tall and one meter wide.
“Please come in.”
At this moment, a gentle voice sounded in his mind.
“You are?” Qi Ming asked.
“Respected Legacy Disciple Qi.” The voice in his mind sounded again and explained, “I’m the Legacy Hall Spirit No. 03 who is serving you. In the next period of time, I will provide the corresponding service.”
“It includes but is not limited to helping you search for the corresponding books, inheritances, spells, and so on.”
“The white door in front of you is an independent space specially opened for you. You can stay in this independent space and not be disturbed by the outside world. You can focus on reading any books and inheritance in the inheritance hall.”
“The service is quite thoughtful.”
Qi Ming smiled and pushed open the white door in front of him. He walked in. It was indeed an independent space with a design that was like a study.
The white door closed.
Qi Ming walked to the chair and sat down.
Above the desk, a white ball of light sounded.
The white ball of light was the Legacy Hall Spirit No. 03.
“Greetings, Dear Legacy Disciple Qi.”
The legacy hall spirit No. 03 asked, “What kind of book do you want to find? Legacy? Cultivation methods? Divine powers? Or spells? The books in the legacy hall are all-encompassing. If you search for them yourself, it will take a long time to find a suitable cultivation method or inheritance, but I can help you resolve it in a short period of time.”
“I want to find all the books related to the history and eras of the Mystic World.”
Qi Ming said bluntly, “The more detailed the better.”
“Okay.” The legacy hall spirit 03 replied.
Buzz! Buzz!!
The next moment, the white ball of light projected in front of Qi Ming. In the projection, there were jade slips one after another. They were all books related to the history and era of the Mystic World.
“Greetings, Honorable Legacy Disciple Qi.”
The Legacy Hall Spirit No. 03 continued, “I’ve found a total of 1,387 books related to the history of the Mystic World for you. Which one do you want to see?”
“All.” Qi Ming said.
“Yes.”
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
The next moment, the 1387 jade slips were copied and teleported to the independent space where Qi Ming was. They were placed on the desk, but could not fit, so the rest of the items were placed around him.
“Please take a look.” The legacy hall spirit said.
Qi Ming nodded.
“If you need anything else, you can find me.” The legacy hall spirit No. 03 continued, “I won’t disturb you from reading.”
“Okay.” Qi Ming replied.
“Huff…”
Qi Ming looked at the jade slips placed around him and took a deep breath. He sighed with emotion, “I didn’t expect there to be so many.”
Then, he casually picked up the closest jade slip and injected Dharmic powers into it. The contents of the jade slip gradually surged into Qi Ming’s mind, “1,387 jade slips. I can take a good look at them.”
While Qi Ming was reading these jade slip books, he was also cultivating. He cultivated the Three Pure Dao Scripture, the Heavenly Constellation Thirty-six Techniques, the Book of Changes Divination Scripture, the Eight Trigrams Yin-Yang Divine Power, and the development of the Battle Sacred Body.
For this, Qi Ming specially activated the fourth and fifth AFK Farming slots.
Activating the fourth AFK Farming slot only cost 10,000 high-grade spirit stones, but activating the fifth AFK Farming slot cost 1,000,000 high-grade spirit stones (10,000 top-grade spirit stones).
The five AFK Farming slots all cultivated in the enhancement state of a million times.
This way, he needed to spend a total of 500,000 medium-grade spirit stones every day. To Qi Ming, the number of spirit stones consumed was actually not much because he could obtain a million high-grade spirit stones every day after clearing the ‘Periphery of the Emperor’s Forbidden Tomb’.
It was enough.
In fact, he had excess spirit stones daily.
Actually, Qi Ming had already accumulated a large number of spirit stones over the years. They were all stored in his inventory. However, he had never found a chance to use them.
Sometimes, spirit stones were like money. Too many would also be a problem.
In the blink of an eye, a month passed.
Qi Ming stayed in the inheritance hall’s independent space for a full month and finished reading all 1387 jade slips.
In addition, after AFK Farming for a month, the Three Pure Dao Scripture, the Heavenly Constellation Thirty-six Techniques, the Book of Changes Divination Scripture, and the Eight Trigrams Yin-Yang Divine Power had all improved.
The one that had improved the most was still the Battle Sacred Body.
Ding!
“The Battle Sacred Body has been developed for 30 days under the enhancement of 1,000,000 times. It has already reached the late-stage Small Success realm. In addition, you have grasped the Battle Sacred Technique, Battle Movement Technique, Battle Divine Fist, and other body refinement techniques.”
A notification appeared.
Qi Ming nodded in satisfaction, “It has already reached the late-stage Small Success realm. I reckon that it won’t be long before I can develop the Battle Sacred Body to the Blood Transfusion realm.”
In addition, during these 30 days, Qi Ming had cleared the Periphery of the Emperor’s Forbidden Tomb 30 times and obtained the bloodline crystals that could increase the strength of the Dawn Dark Bat Demon and the Frost Crystal Maiden. It could allow them to complete their evolution.
However, he did not obtain the Inheritance Crystal that could allow Huo Changqing to advance.
Qi Ming planned to let the Dawn Dark Bat Demon and the Frost Crystal Maiden complete their evolution first after returning to the Heaven Secrets Manor. Huo Changqing could only be put aside for the moment.
It was time for Black Flame’s Dragon Transformation Tribulation to be on the agenda.
As long as it succeeded, Black Flame could further transform into a dragon and advance from an elite pet to a rare pet.
In this month, Because Qi Ming had already finished reading all 1387 jade slips related to the history and legends of the Mystic World, he already had a sufficient understanding of the entire world.
First, regarding the birth of the Mystic World, there were three versions.
The first version.
Before the distant Origin Era, before the Mystic World was born, an unprecedented immortal battle erupted in the higher world. An Immortal King died in this battle.
This Immortal King’s corpse fell out of the higher realm and arrived in the void. The Immortal King’s corpse had floated in the void for countless years and epochs.
Until one day in the future.
This day was called: Origin Day.
The Immortal King’s corpse gradually evolved into a world under the influence of the Void. The Immortal King’s head, feet, left arm, and right arm respectively became the four divine mountains of the east, south, west, and north. His body became the central divine mountain and became the five supreme pillars of the Mystic World.
Every part of the Immortal King’s body was evolving and perfecting this world. His left eye turned into the sun, and his right eye turned into the moon. His comprehension of the Dao transformed into earth, water, fire, and wind…
Finally, the Immortal King disappeared.
The Mystic World was born.
It entered the Origin Era.
The living beings that were born in the Mystic World respectfully called this Immortal King the Origin Immortal King.
…
The second version.
On the Origin Day, a Singularity was born in the void. This Singularity was indescribable and impossible to describe. ‘He’ was light, ‘He’ was darkness, and ‘He’ was the beginning of everything…
This Singularity was affected by the void, causing it to swell and explode. It was constantly expanding from a Singularity outwards…
Then, it had reached the limit.
The space in the Singularity surged with earth, water, fire, and wind. Five great Connate Origin Gods were born. They created the four divine mountains of the east, south, west, and north, evolving the central divine mountain and completely stabilizing the Mystic World, causing it to give birth to life and nurture all things…
The Mystic World was born.
The Origin Era thus arrived…
