159: Pass on the Dharma to God and exchange with Heaven

A majestic vitality surged within his physique, flowing into every part of his body, and under its influence, both his spirit and flesh felt a sense of purification.

In the past, when Qin Jin returned to Lei Yu Star with Teacher Gu, he had seen the incomplete planetary divinity and had received a reward of extended lifespan from it.

Now, the Lei Yu Star divinity was fully formed, and a clear change had occurred. Qin Jin clearly sensed that the strength of his life essence had increased, his lifespan had extended, and new primordial power had generated within his physique, providing an amplification to his cultivation.

Inside the planet, it became completely silent.

After a long while.

At a certain moment, Qin Jin opened his eyes, his aura formidable, and carefully sensed himself.

“My lifespan has increased by a full two hundred years.”

“The Third Transformation was just completed, but with the feedback from the Second Grotto-Heaven and this latest improvement, the expanded vessel after the Third Transformation is now much more substantial.”

“My progress is incredibly fast.”

“As Martial God Su said, the rewards one can gain from a divinity are related to oneself.”

“Then, how long did a Martial Artist extend his lifespan after passing through the tribulation lightning personally controlled by the Star God?”

The middle-aged appearance of Martial God Su, as he last appeared, flashed through his mind, and Qin Jin shifted his gaze, looking not far in front of him.

At this moment, the planet was completely desolate.

High in the sky, besides him, there was only the vast divine body of Lei Yu Watcher.

“Venerable Observer.”

Qin Jin’s voice rang out.

Lei Yu Watcher’s divine body maintained constant change, never settling. At this moment, a gentle voice sounded: “You are imitating the planetary divinity.”

A question, stated with a tone of affirmation.

Qin Jin nodded.

This character ‘Jie’ ( kalpa) was born from Lei Yu Watcher, embodying his primordial ability. Now, Qin Jin was imitating it through another method, so it was normal for him to be discovered.

Seeing Qin Jin nod, Lei Yu Watcher’s divine body showed no movement, but at this moment, a soft light fell upon Qin Jin’s eyes.

Just like when Qin Jin first met this Star God.

At that time, Venerable Observer granted him the ability to directly perceive a deity.

Now, with the soft light covering him, a cool sensation emanated from Qin Jin’s eyes. As if he had gained some enlightenment, he looked up at the sky.

In the sky, the character ‘Jie’ ( kalpa) still remained.

After the divinity was fully formed, this character ‘Jie’ could be hidden at any time and did not need to be constantly displayed.

Now, in Qin Jin’s sight, the character ‘Jie’ transformed in his eyes, instantly breaking down into countless profound and complex ancient characters, imprinted upon his mind.

“This is…”

“Venerable Observer has granted me [permission].”

To use an analogy, the previous character ‘Jie’ ( kalpa), because it involved the primordial ability of Lei Yu Watcher and the vast difference between them, was infinitely encrypted. When Qin Jin tried to imitate it, he could at most grasp its form, but not its meaning.

Now, Lei Yu Watcher had lifted the encryption for him, allowing him to truly see its core essence.

As the character ‘Jie’ ( kalpa) disassembled into countless characters, under Qin Jin’s observation, the Thunder Swamp in his Spirit Ruins completely boiled, countless lightning bolts surged upward, and above the Thunder Swamp, the character ‘Jie’ formed by lightning quickly took shape. Beside the character ‘Jie’, more lightning surged, forming clouds, like tribulation clouds.

Lightning, like dragons, weaved through the clouds.

At the same time, as Lei Yu Watcher granted him this ability, Qin Jin could sense that his professional panel had changed.

He could perceive that one of the professions above had changed at this moment.

[God-Favored One]

This profession was generated after he first saw the Star God and did not disappear even though he used the power bestowed by the deity as his Dao foundation fire, because the favor from the Star God never left.

Now, the three characters changed, shrinking to two characters, and a faint stream of light bloomed above them.

[Divine Envoy]

A divine envoy.

Star Sea Deities possess long lifespans, and deities like Star Gods, who are closely related to planets, do not easily appear in the world or leave the planet that gave birth to them. As envoys, they are their representatives in the current world.

The profession changed.

The character ‘Jie’ ( kalpa) was generated.

After continuous observation, sensing that he had reached his limit, Qin Jin closed his eyes.

In the Spirit Ruins, above the Thunder Swamp, the character ‘Jie’ ( kalpa) had completely formed. At this moment, it descended from the sky, plummeting into the Thunder Swamp, stirring up astonishing waves.

The Thunder Swamp vibrated.

In the next instant, lightning roared, and Qin Jin clearly sensed that the area where the Thunder Swamp was located in the Spirit Ruins seemed to become increasingly heavy.

Within it, the continuously surging lightning had an extra, distinct feeling.

If the Thunder Swamp before had generated and evolved pure lightning power, now… these continuously churning and roaring lightning bolts had an added sense of punishment!

Lightning brings tribulation.

In the judgment of some worlds, tribulation lightning is inherently a type of heavenly tribulation, containing the meaning of punishment.

A thought flashed through his mind.

Qin Jin carefully sensed the changes in the Thunder Swamp.

“Compared to the character ‘Jie’ ( kalpa) within the planetary divinity, my Thunder Swamp only acquired the characteristics of destruction and punishment, and did not gain the ability of reward.”

“Is it because it’s my own, without the relevant 'soil'?”

Enlightenment dawned in Qin Jin’s mind.

If he were a pure Martial Artist, even if Venerable Observer opened up the permissions, he would not be able to complete the replication of the character ‘Jie’ ( kalpa).

Because he himself did not have the [soil] to carry this ability.

The Heavenly Azure Method, however, was completely different.

How extraordinary was the true scripture written by the Immortal Dynasty Princess? The law inscribed in the tiancang jade pendant, even in the ancient Immortal Dynasty, must have been a profound cultivation method directly leading to higher realms. It was precisely because of this that cultivating its law and giving birth to the Thunder Swamp would lead to changes when Qin Jin observed the character ‘Jie’ ( kalpa).

Life hidden within tribulation.

He used the Thunder Swamp as a foundation to carry the character ‘Jie’ ( kalpa), but he himself had no means to carry the character ‘Sheng’ ( raw, meaning 'life'), so he only replicated half of it.

“But it’s already enough.”

“Tribulation contained within lightning—this isn't an improvement in realm, but the destructive power is a qualitative leap.”

Exhaling a long breath, Qin Jin opened his eyes.

Lei Yu Watcher hovered in the sky.

Qin Jin’s expression was solemn as he bowed and said, “Thank you, Venerable Observer.”

To be able to observe and truly understand the primordial ability of a deity.

Qin Jin was no longer the novice who had just embarked on cultivation; he understood its value and significance.

Thinking of the worst-case scenario, after mastering this ability, he even, in a sense, became a vulnerability for Lei Yu Watcher, which showed the extent of this importance.

In front of him.

Lei Yu Watcher’s voice was gentle and slowly sounded: “Some time ago, the two Martial Artists visited and also exchanged information with me about your human martial arts.”

“Martial Artists can cultivate and improve themselves by visualizing extraordinary life forms.”

“It’s a pity…”

“Qin Jin, you are still too weak. Even if I remove my own protection, you would be directly assimilated by the overflowing power through visualization, losing yourself.”

“Work hard on your cultivation.”

“According to Martial God Su, a Martial Artist who reaches the Heavenly Human realm will undergo a qualitative transformation, their status will rise, and they will even be able to establish an anchor point, and from then on… they will truly possess the qualification to visualize deities.”

Lei Yu Watcher’s voice echoed in the sky.

In his words, the tone remained unchanged, yet it contained concern.

From his meaning, he was even willing to become Qin Jin’s future visualization subject.

Qin Jin remained silent for a moment.

The Star God Chosen was undoubtedly his greatest opportunity apart from the Great Wilderness. The reason he could establish himself in the Federation and freely display his talent was precisely because of the existence of Lei Yu Watcher.

The life of a deity is vast, but Lei Yu Watcher’s long life had just begun. He saw him at the very beginning of his formation, and their relationship was complex and intimate.

In his silence, Qin Jin thought of the idea that had previously arisen in his mind.

Under the power of Venerable Observer, two grotto-heavens underwent unusual changes, and both the divine and the Dao became more substantial.

This was the influence of the Star Sea Deity on the Heavenly Azure Method, a convergence of two worlds on Qin Jin.

Then…

What about the reverse?

“Will the Heavenly Azure Method also inspire the native deities in the Star Sea?”

This was the idea he had earlier.

Thoughts flashed through his mind. Although Qin Jin was never one to hesitate, at this moment, a sense of hesitation arose in his heart.

After several breaths of contemplation, the hesitation dissipated.

Qin Jin’s face showed a relaxed and candid expression as he looked at the Star God and seriously said, “Venerable Observer, I have a gift for you.”

“Oh?”

Lei Yu Watcher’s voice revealed interest, somewhat surprised: “What is it?”

At this moment, above Lei Yu Star, there was only one person and one deity.

The outer starfield was under martial law, and with the Star God accompanying him inside, there was no fear of being spied upon.

Qin Jin’s primordial power surged, and he used his spiritual imprint to copy the true scripture from the tiancang jade pendant, without translating it. In the sky above Lei Yu Star, two true scriptures were written out, character by character.

[Lightning Marsh True Explanation]

[Nine Heavens Thunder Prison Heart Scripture]

Two true scriptures related to the lightning attribute.

He had already cultivated one of them, and the other was in his plans.

Completely copied, the true scriptures were extremely long, covering the entire sky.

“This is…?”

Lei Yu Watcher’s gaze fell upon them, and a questioning voice sounded.

“This is a completely different cultivation path.”

Qin Jin said directly: “I obtained it by chance, and besides martial arts, I also cultivated this method, which is why I was able to imitate the planetary divinity.”

His words were calm.

Once he made a decision, he would not regret it.

Internally, Lei Yu Watcher treated him extremely well; externally, he and the Star God were already inseparable.

Since that was the case, he would repay him and make his backing stronger and more extraordinary.

From the grand background of the Great Wilderness, one day in the future, he might even bring the Star God and the Federation into it.

So, he would prepare early.

Thoughts flickered, and Qin Jin’s words did not stop.

“These are two true scriptures from that cultivation path.”

“Venerable Observer, my cultivation on this path is shallow, but its meaning is profound, reaching extremely high places. Perhaps… you can gain something from it.”

As Qin Jin spoke.

Lei Yu Watcher gazed at the characters of the true scriptures in the sky. As he watched, some ancient characters on his divine body fluctuated, their strokes rearranging, clearly transforming into the Tian Cang characters within the true scriptures.

It seemed he was analyzing and understanding this new script.

The Star Sea does not contain spiritual energy, but these two true scriptures, besides their cultivation system, also contained other methods.

Moreover, a naturally born deity, possessing supreme power, would undoubtedly have a completely different perspective when viewing the Immortal Dynasty true scriptures from his angle.

“Venerable Observer.”

Seeing this, Qin Jin said, “I have mastered this script.”

“Do you need me to translate?”

The transformation of characters on Lei Yu Watcher’s divine body continued, as if a part of the analysis had been completed. His voice, rarely, carried a hint of solemnity: “You speak.”

“Just state the original meaning of the characters.”

Qin Jin nodded.

He chose to copy the original text precisely because he didn’t want his translation to distort the meaning. He thoroughly understood the realms he had already cultivated, but for the profound realms he had not yet touched, he still only knew the words but not their meaning.

At this moment, he stood in the sky, translating character by character.

During the translation, a thought arose in his mind.

“In a sense, this can also be considered imparting a method to a deity.”

As Qin Jin translated, Lei Yu Watcher also performed his own analysis. A part of his divine body completely transformed into Tian Cang characters, as if the two true scriptures were imprinted upon him.

Within the planet, in front of Qin Jin, a portion of his aura was revealed, seemingly undergoing some kind of change.

After a long while.

The translation ended.

On Lei Yu Watcher’s vast divine body, most of the characters continued to change.

However, the area that had transformed into Tian Cang characters and recorded the two true scriptures remained in a fixed state.

At this moment.

Lei Yu Watcher’s voice sounded, gentle yet serious.

“Qin Jin.”

“I like your gift very much.”

“As long as it can help Venerable Observer, that’s good.”

Qin Jin replied.

“Martial God Su left a message for you before he departed.”

“He said you could stay and cultivate in your hometown, but if you couldn't stay still, he also had a few places for you to choose from.”

Lei Yu Watcher’s voice, rarely, carried a hint of impatience: “Qin Jin, do you have any other questions?”

“Venerable Observer sounds very eager to immediately study these two true scriptures.”

A thought flashed, and Qin Jin quickly said, “There’s one more thing.”

After he finished speaking, under observation, primordial power surged, and the Star God Chosen Breathing Method operated!

When he was on Zhi Xia Star, he practiced this Breathing Method and unexpectedly entered a strange place, possibly even attracting the attention of the Zhi Xia Star God.

Since he had a deity of his own, he naturally wouldn’t miss the opportunity to inquire.

The Breathing Method operated, initially calm, but the moment Qin Jin illuminated his entire body with primordial power, in his perception, the surrounding environment suddenly changed.

“It’s here.”

He looked around, and compared to the misty, cloud-like immortal realm of Zhi Xia Star, the surroundings appeared quite desolate.

The moment it appeared, the Breathing Method’s operating speed remained unchanged, but all around, an unparalleled pressure descended, tempering his body.

“This is the core of the planet.”

The Observer’s voice sounded in Qin Jin’s ear: “If viewed from your human perspective, Gaia Planet can also be considered an extraordinary planet. Within every Gaia Planet, there exists a core area, which is the origin of all extraordinary factors.”

“Through the ability I granted you, you can enter here at any time.”

“But now, it seems you’ve arrived here through another method.”

“Marvelous, not only the method you used, but also because of yourself.”

The explanation echoed.

The Breathing Method ceased, and Qin Jin opened his eyes.

“No wonder.”

“I unexpectedly entered the core of Zhi Xia Star, no wonder it attracted the Star God’s attention.”

On Lei Yu Watcher’s divine body, the Tian Cang characters flickered.

He looked like a scientist who had found a research direction, somewhat impatient.

“Venerable Observer, I have nothing more to ask.”

Qin Jin’s voice sounded.

Under his gaze, the vast divine body disappeared at this moment, and Lei Yu Watcher’s voice entered his ears.

“If there is anything else, you may seek me in the Forbidden Zone.”

Leaving a final message.

The divine body completely vanished.

In the sky, only Qin Jin remained.

He raised his arm and looked at the academy terminal he carried.

No signal, unable to communicate.

This star system was still under martial law.

Gui Xu Martial God had undoubtedly succeeded, but the formation of Lei Yu Star’s divinity, even if it required surviving a tribulation to trigger, still needed proper arrangements.

However.

From the recent process, Gui Xu Martial God did not choose to come alone, but instead sought out other supreme powerhouses within the Federation. Such figures acting together would certainly arrange everything properly, minimizing any disturbance.

“So, now, I am the only one on Lei Yu Star.”

“This vast planet has become my personal cultivation ground.”

Qin Jin let out a long breath.

His body descended, heading towards his residence, and he thought of what the Star God had said, the message Martial God Su had left for him, and his heart stirred.

He hadn't heard the message after he stopped cultivating.

With a slight thought, an item was taken out.

Martial God Calligraphy!

Above, the character 'Martial' glowed brightly, while the character 'God' had not yet appeared.

Clearly, in the judgment of the Calligraphy, he had not yet reached the level of [Seeing God].

His spirit touched the 'Martial' character.

The moment it touched, the 'Martial' character burst into brilliant light. As Qin Jin watched, the light from the 'Martial' character projected into the sky, evolving into three small portals.

“Is this Senior Su’s message?”

“Are these three portals the places he prepared for me during the holiday?”

Even though this starfield was under martial law, Qin Jin believed that with the means of a Martial God, if he chose one of the portals and understood the information within, someone would naturally come to Lei Yu Star to pick him up.

With a glance, Qin Jin did not enter to investigate. His spirit receded, and the three portals projected by the Calligraphy disappeared.

“It looks like three paths, but in reality, there are four.”

“Senior Su also approves of me staying in my hometown to cultivate.”

Thoughts flashed through Qin Jin’s mind.

The Martial Artist lineage, the strong individuals Qin Jin had encountered so far, could all be described as extraordinary in spirit, with the intention of passing on the torch.

Martial God Su had arranged choices for him, but he did not force him to take any particular path. Ultimately, cultivating the martial way is cultivating oneself, giving him space for his own choices.

In the past, this Martial God Su might have also grown up in such an environment.

“Next, I will stay in my hometown. Without classes, I can completely immerse myself in cultivation.”

“Daily cultivation, learning new methods. In the Great Desolation, after mastering flight, I can also explore it again myself.”

“The route I chose for my last long journey was the route that mountain god returned on, and it was also the route the Three-Headed Strange Python used to invade and attack the Great Desolation. All the tribes along the way were destroyed, but according to the Tu Yang Tribe’s map, other directions are not like this.”

“Moreover…”

“From the Tu Yang Tribe’s map, the Si Huo Tribe is located in the southwest of the Great Desolation. Therefore, it didn’t take me too long to reach the southwestern border of the Great Desolation.”

All sorts of thoughts flashed through his mind.

“I was very busy at the academy, but when I came home, I felt even busier.”

Qin Jin shook his head and smiled.

At the academy, some courses affected his cultivation time.

But Qin Jin believed this was necessary.

The courses at the academy were all targeted. Knowledge and insights were all foundations. Although they could not be directly converted into strength, at certain moments, they might play a role comparable to strength.

He pondered all the way back.

Qin Jin returned home.

The villa had been uninhabited for some time and looked a bit messy, covered with a layer of dust.

Qin Jin activated the cleaning robot and tidied up.

“There’s no one left on the entire planet, where can I shop?”

A thought flashed, and Qin Jin shook his head with a wry smile: “It seems I’ll need to hunt some fierce beasts from the Great Desolation for food.”

“With the planet’s divine formation and its advancement, there should also be many extraordinary plants and fruits that can be picked and eaten on the current Lei Yu Star.”

Thoughts flashed through his mind.

With a thought, Qin Jin’s professional panel appeared, and he looked at the bronze door above.

His connection with Venerable Observer was still blocked; the other party could not directly perceive his movements.

However, now that he was the only one on Lei Yu Star, and Lei Yu Watcher was studying the Heavenly Azure Method, if he had the idea of finding him, he would surely notice.

However, Qin Jin was also prepared.

When he chose to give the Immortal Dynasty True Scripture to the Star God, he had already made a series of plans. If necessary, he would also try to see if he could take the Star God to the Great Desolation.

Plans change due to circumstances; he would not regret his choices.

There are no secrets in the world that can be permanently hidden, let alone when the object is a deity with whom one has an extremely close relationship.

If that scene truly occurred, it might not necessarily be a bad thing, after all… the Great Desolation itself harbors dangers.

…

Great Desolation.

Si Huo Tribe.

Qin Jin appeared in the Sacrificial Spirit Hall.

The moment he arrived at the hall, Qin Jin initially intended to observe the tribe’s recent situation as usual, then begin his cultivation.

However, the moment he appeared, Qin Jin clearly perceived that within the Spirit Ruins, the Thunder Swamp stirred.

His mind sank into the Spirit Ruins. If one were to look down from high above, they would see that within the Thunder Swamp, the character [Calamity] was written, surrounded by surging lightning.

At this moment, the character 'Calamity' flickered with light, constantly trembling, and a sense of guidance arose in Qin Jin’s heart.

As the sense of guidance arose in his heart, within the Spirit Ruins, two shan he remnant pieces also trembled slightly.

“This character 'Calamity' entering the Thunder Swamp has caused other changes?”

Qin Jin experienced the faint, indistinct sense of guidance that appeared in the ethereal, and suddenly raised his head, looking up at the sky.

The direction of the guidance was towards the heavens.

With a slight thought, spiritual power surrounded his body, concealing his figure. Qin Jin walked out of the Sacrificial Spirit Hall, stepped into the air, and ascended directly into the sky.

This was not the first time he had done this, so he was quite familiar with it. After ascending to a high altitude, the spiritual power concealment was removed, and his body appeared in the sky.

As he ascended, the sense of guidance emanating from the Thunder Swamp became clearer.

Soon…

Qin Jin arrived at the outer membrane of the sky, where he had been before.

What surprised Qin Jin was that when he first came here, he felt the pressure continuously increase, and only after taking out the shan he remnant piece did the pressure decrease.

But this time, he had not felt any pressure for a long time.

“Compared to last time, my cultivation has improved, but this improvement is truly insignificant compared to that mountain and river divine cauldron.”

“It’s a change caused by other factors.”

Qin Jin speculated in his mind: “Is it because of the guiding intent arising from the Thunder Swamp, or is it… because I cultivated the True Scripture left by Senior Ji Lianxing?”

“In the past Tiancang Immortal Dynasty, this should also have been the top-tier method.”

While guessing, Qin Jin approached the membrane of the sky and entered easily without even taking out the remnant fragment.

Above the sky, the countless large and small shan he remnant pieces reappeared in his sight.

This scene was undoubtedly somewhat shocking.

Qin Jin’s expression became a little somber.

Returning to this place, he remembered that Senior Ji Lianxing. The imprint she left communicated with him across countless ages, but now… that imprint had dissipated, and the empty tomb within that shan he remnant piece had become a true burial place, leaving her final trace.

Qin Jin walked beneath the divine cauldron remnant fragments.

After passing through the membrane of the sky, the guiding intent from the Thunder Swamp became even clearer. In Qin Jin’s heart, a faint, indistinct calling sound also began to resonate in the ethereal.

He followed the guidance, moving forward, and after reaching a certain area, he looked up at the sky, his eyes narrowing slightly.

Looking up, the sky above was an empty area.

Around it were broken chains. This area once held shan he remnant pieces, connected by bronze chains. A glance revealed that there must have been at least several fragments here in the past.

But now, they had all disappeared, likely having exhausted their power and fallen, leaving only broken chains.

It was at this moment that the Thunder Swamp began to fluctuate violently.

Qin Jin wanted to confirm what was happening. At this moment, with a slight thought, the True Scripture operated, and he stood still. Behind him, a scene faintly appeared, the true Spirit Ruins manifesting in the present world.

This was a method that could not be directly exposed in the Star Sea, but in the Great Desolation, there were fewer scruples.

The Spirit Ruins manifested, with the Thunder Swamp churning within and the character 'Calamity' flickering. At this moment, a phantom rose, projecting towards the sky!

The phantom of the character 'Calamity'!

It landed precisely in that empty area, on the sky, seeming to vanish into thin air, and then disappeared.

Then, everything calmed down.

Just a few breaths later.

Under Qin Jin’s gaze, a golden light emerged from the empty area above, appearing extremely sacred and pure. It transformed into a beam of light, and the divine light rapidly descended, approaching the area below.

Its target was Qin Jin.

“This divine light.”

“It looks similar to the divine light that appears when a Grotto-Heaven forms and is named by heaven and earth!”

As the thought flashed through his mind, the divine light descended, enveloping his body, bringing an incredibly warm and comfortable feeling.

This feeling was even better than the vitality merging into his body after passing through the tribulation lightning.

Both his physique and spirit were refined. The divine light even shone into the Spirit Ruins. Under its illumination, Qin Jin clearly felt that the Spirit Ruins’ strength increased, and his spiritual power felt joyful.

Divine light enveloped him.

Qin Jin did not perceive any increase in his realm, but with the continuous refinement, he confirmed that his perception of spiritual power became more acute, and the surging of his original power became smoother. In its rush, even without operating the Visualization Method, his original power began to show a slight growth.

“This is…”

Waves rippled in Qin Jin’s eyes. After careful perception, he confirmed the idea that had arisen in his heart.

“It’s an improvement in talent!”

Talent!

These two simple words, yet they contained the yearning of countless living beings.

He obtained the Myriad Spirit Body when he underwent transformation and received a name from heaven and earth.

Now, the goal of this divine light was clear: to enhance his talent.

Divine light enveloped him.

Under Qin Jin’s gaze, new anomalies appeared from that empty space.

Golden mist emerged, looking like spiritual power, but upon closer perception, it was distinctly different from spiritual power. Qin Jin could see these golden mists with his naked eye, but he could not perceive them with his spirit, as if they did not exist.

This scene was extremely peculiar.

Under Qin Jin’s gaze.

Those golden mists descended and came to Qin Jin’s side. The mists converged, forming strands that intertwined and wove together, eventually forming the shape of an upper body armor, covering Qin Jin’s body as if he were wearing it.

In the next instant.

This golden armor, formed of golden mist, completely disappeared, its whereabouts unknown. In Qin Jin’s perception, it was as if it had never appeared.

“What is this again?”

Qin Jin felt puzzled.

He let out a long breath, looking at the divine light that enveloped him, and in his mind, he reviewed all the information he knew about the Great Desolation. At a certain moment, his heart settled.

Qin Jin remembered the words Ji Lianxing had once spoken in the shan he remnant piece.

The cultivation method of the Tiancang Immortal Dynasty was extremely costly, requiring a great deal of resources on the path of cultivation.

The more talented one was, the more so.

But the Immortal Dynasty still rose because the Heavenly Azure Method was closely related to heaven and earth. After reaching a high realm, one’s own growth could also help heaven and earth to nurture more divine wonders.

At this instant, everything connected in Qin Jin’s mind.

He looked up at the empty space in the sky.

“The remnant fragments of the mountain and river divine cauldron enveloped the Great Desolation, but because some fragments, over long ages, completely exhausted their power and fell from the sky, some gaps appeared in the barrier, and a slight connection with the outside world’s heaven and earth was restored.”

“It is precisely because of this that I was able to receive a name from heaven and earth when I created my Grotto-Heaven.”

“The Lightning Marsh True Explanation could be touched and changed by the Star God’s action, very likely because, in the outside world’s heaven and earth, there truly exist heavenly tribulations and tribulation lightning!”

Qin Jin’s thoughts became clearer and clearer: “The Star God’s action could also touch the characters ‘God’ and ‘Dao’ on the Grotto-Heaven, which shows that in terms of status, this heaven and earth recognizes the Star God. Now, with the help of Venerable Observer, I have mimicked the character ‘Calamity’ on the Thunder Swamp.”

“For the heaven and earth outside the Great Desolation, this is an [anomaly] that has never appeared, a kind of heavenly tribulation that has never appeared, causing it to sense it.”

“This character ‘Calamity’ might have filled a gap in the heaven and earth’s system in this regard. Because it generated guidance, after I arrived, it bestowed a reward.”

“The golden mist and the divine light from heaven and earth are all feedback bestowed by heaven and earth.”

“This is a mutually beneficial exchange with heaven and earth.”

Thoughts flashed rapidly through Qin Jin’s mind.

He let out a long breath, synthesizing the information, and believed that his speculation was infinitely close to the truth.

At this moment…

Waves rippled in his heart. He gained a deeper understanding of what Ji Lianxing had said about the profound connection between the human cultivation methods of this heaven and earth and the heaven and earth itself.

“In the late Immortal Dynasty era, countless top cultivators were willing to make such a grand move for this heaven and earth, performing the act of mending the sky.”

He thought of Ji Lianxing’s smile when she saw him, uttering words of success, and at this moment, he empathized with her.

Heaven and earth flourished because of human cultivators, and human cultivators became extraordinary with the help of heaven and earth.

“The wudao stele chose to become Shi Cang’s accompanying treasure.”

“Perhaps, in ancient times, such accompanying treasures were originally one of the rewards given by heaven and earth to humanity.”

Time passed.

The divine light around Qin Jin gradually diminished, and the empty area above gradually returned to calmness.

His realm had not improved, but a comfortable feeling continuously emanated from his body, as if everything in heaven and earth had a sense of closeness to him. Spiritual power changed according to his will; with a thought, spiritual power departed, and with another thought, spiritual power returned.

If spiritual power could express thoughts, then its current feeling towards him would probably be…

Flattery.

“The divine light of heaven and earth improved my talent.”

“So, what exactly was that golden mist woven into armor?”

Qin Jin pondered.

He looked up at the empty area above.

It had completely calmed down. After everything ended, the Spirit Ruins retreated, the Thunder Swamp became silent, and everything was over.

“This can also be considered a disguised transaction between two realms.”

In the initial stages, he had engaged in transactions, selling crystal cores from the Great Desolation.

Later, he was valued by Teacher Chu and experienced the Star God Chosen, so he no longer needed to do such things.

Qin Jin had not expected.

His second cross-realm transaction partner would be this world, this heaven and earth!
