712: Chapter 712 Sublimation!!
Over the following period, Qin Yan, Su Qingwan, and Yue Qing would occasionally pour some spiritual liquid or wine into their cups.
Moonlight Clear Dew, Thousand-Year Spirit Honey Brew, Biluo Immortal Spring—various spiritual liquids made their appearance one after another.
The group toasted and chatted casually.
They talked about cultivation, Cultivation Techniques, and interesting anecdotes from the Heavens and Myriad Worlds.
A night breeze brushed past, carrying the fragrance of the spiritual liquids.
Time flowed slowly as the bright moon hung high in the sky.
At other tables, different stories were unfolding.
At the table with Long Aotian and Senior Sister Luo Qinghe.
Long Aotian raised his wine cup, looking directly at Senior Sister Luo Qinghe with a frank expression. Senior Sister Luo Qinghe also raised her cup, her face calm.
Their cups clinked softly in the air.
"Miss Luo, thank you for the match."
Long Aotian said in a deep voice.
"Young Master Long, please."
Senior Sister Luo Qinghe gave a slight smile and drained the contents of her cup.
The two of them smiled, letting bygones be bygones.
At Huang Jiuli's table.
Huang Jiuli sat alone at the table, with Spiritual Food piled up like a mountain before her.
Her phoenix eyes were full of satisfaction, and her mouth never stopped moving.
Red Flame Flood Dragon meat, Green-Scaled Python stew, Golden-Horned Rhino ribs—she refused nothing, eating in large gulps.
The Phoenix True Fire around her body burned slowly, rapidly refining the Spiritual Qi and essence blood within the food and integrating them into her body.
Her aura slowly rose under the nourishment of the food.
At the table with Lin Ruoxi and Li Tianxing.
Lin Ruoxi looked cold, while Li Tianxing looked calm. The two merely gave a faint nod as a greeting. There was no conversation, no clinking of cups, no fostering of friendship, and no escalation of conflict.
They just sat there plainly, ate plainly, and finished plainly.
The night grew deeper.
The banquet was gradually drawing to a close.
...
High in the sky, Peak Master Jian Wuya and Pulse Master Lu Chenyuan stood side by side, the night wind rustling their robes.
Both were Supreme powerhouses of the True Emperor Realm, existences standing at the Peak of the martial path.
Their gazes pierced through the night, taking in every action of the Disciples below.
Who was toasting, who was eating with their head down, who was whispering, and who was silently contemplating—everything was within their sight.
However, the two of them said nothing about it.
It was naturally for the best if the Disciples of both sides could forge friendships.
Making more friends among the youth was always beneficial for future development.
If they couldn't, the elders wouldn't meddle.
After all, they were just juniors; they weren't worth the intervention of existences such as themselves.
How could True Emperor Realm experts have the leisure to manage the social lives of a group of sixth-grade juniors?
"Brother Jian, it's getting late."
Pulse Master Lu Chenyuan turned to look at Peak Master Jian Wuya and spoke.
He had three main purposes for this trip to the Taixuan Holy Land: first, to bring his Disciples to exchange skills with the Holy Land's prodigies; second, to gift the emperor fall token to the Taixuan Holy Land; and third, to catch up with Peak Master Jian Wuya.
All three matters were finished, so he had no reason to stay at the Taixuan Holy Land.
He had other important matters and it wasn't appropriate to stay at the Taixuan Holy Land for too long.
"Good."
Peak Master Jian Wuya nodded, then looked down at the many Disciples and said, "Alright, the banquet is paused. I have an announcement to make."
As Peak Master Jian Wuya's voice fell, the many Disciples below stopped what they were doing.
Everyone's eyes simultaneously turned toward the two big shots in the sky.
"The Land of Emperors Fall in Diluo Valley will open within a few months."
Peak Master Jian Wuya spoke slowly, his voice steady and powerful.
"And our Holy Land has obtained many emperor fall tokens this time. I have already discussed with the other Peak Masters; since the seven of you performed well in this competition, as long as you can Breakthrough to the Grandmaster Realm before the Land of Emperors Fall opens, you will receive an emperor fall token and the chance to enter the Land of Emperors Fall."
Upon hearing this news, the Disciples were first stunned, and then smiles appeared on their faces.
They were just wondering how to get an emperor fall token, and now, an opportunity to obtain one was placed right in front of them!
It truly came without any effort at all.
A flash of light crossed Long Aotian's golden dragon pupils, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
Lin Ruoxi remained calm. Feng Wuji had a smile on his face, his eyes full of determination to succeed.
Su Qingwan nodded slightly, her eyes shimmering.
Hearing this news, Huang Jiuli and Beichen Xing couldn't help but feel a sense of urgency.
The two of them had not yet condensed a Supreme-Grade Intent.
They had to hurry and condense a Supreme-Grade Intent!
Only after condensing a Supreme-Grade Intent could they begin to work on breaking through to Grandmaster.
This was not an order that could be changed at will, but a martial law that had to be followed.
Because when a Martial Artist breaks through to Grandmaster and condenses a Golden Body, they receive a baptism from Heaven and Earth.
The Heaven and Earth Baptism—that is the gift from the world to a Martial Artist when they cross from the sixth grade to the seventh grade.
At this moment, the power of Heaven and Earth pours into the Martial Artist's body, transforming their Physical Body, tempering their True Qi, and sublimating their Concept.
At this time, the 'Intent' within the Martial Artist's body also undergoes a change. It rapidly transforms, turning toward a 'Domain'.
The essence of a Domain is the externalization and manifestation of 'Intent'.
During this process, the Heaven and Earth Baptism helps the Martial Artist complete the vast majority of the work, saving them a great deal of time by removing the need to painstakingly Cultivate their 'Intent' to Perfection before attempting the tedious step of condensing it into a 'Domain'.
Of course, that isn't the key point.
The key is that their 'Intent' will surely be sublimated to a higher level under the Heaven and Earth Baptism.
At this time, if they do not have a Supreme-Grade Intent, they can only choose a first grade Intent to sublimate into a Domain.
How can a Domain sublimated from a first grade Intent compare to one from a Supreme-Grade Intent?
One is a wooden sword, the other a divine weapon; they are simply not on the same level.
Therefore, if possible, they would all condense a Supreme-Grade Intent before breaking through to Grandmaster, and then use the Heaven and Earth Baptism to sublimate it into a Supreme Domain.
This is the most effortless, efficient, and perfect path.
Furthermore, a Supreme-Grade Intent provides a foundation for condensing the Golden Body. Whether a Golden Body is powerful or not is directly related to a Martial Artist's foundation.
A Supreme-Grade Intent is one of the deepest foundations possible.
A Martial Artist with a Supreme-Grade Intent will condense a Golden Body that far exceeds those with only a first grade Intent in terms of height, solidity, and strength.
So, no matter what, they had to try to condense a Supreme-Grade Intent before breaking through to Grandmaster.
Otherwise, they would not be satisfied!
Huang Jiuli clenched her fists, flames dancing in her phoenix eyes. Beichen Xing also nodded slightly, a flash of determination in his eyes.
Qin Yan, however, had no reaction upon hearing this news.
His expression was calm, his gaze indifferent.
In any case, his goal had always been to condense a Supreme-Grade Intent and then choose to break through to Grandmaster.
Whether the Land of Emperors Fall opened or not, he would follow his own rhythm.
