205 How Many Steps Are There to Comprehending the Principles of Heaven and Earth?

“You… Who exactly are you…”

With great difficulty, Jiao Qingtu placed the two eyeballs back in their original positions. Only then did he sit back shakily. As if afraid that his blood pressure would rise again, he took a few deep breaths before he asked in a trembling voice.

“How did you do it?”

“Just like that.”

“No, what I mean is… what exactly did you do?”

Jiao Qingtu thought for a moment and changed the way he asked his question.

Others might not know, but how could he not know?

What Feng Xia was doing now was a huge achievement that even Dharma Characteristic Realm cultivators could not manage to achieve!

As far as he knew, the Dharma Characteristic Realm was a realm that outlined dharma paintings and constantly strengthened one’s soul. When one’s soul was strengthened to its limit, the soul and dharma would become one, and one would step into the realm after the Dharma Characteristic Realm…

The True Spirit Realm!

The true spirit was also known as the essence soul.

In ancient times, there were divine arts practitioners who had vast essence souls and boundless magical power. As the saying went, one could visit the East Sea in the morning and be back home by dusk. This was referring to what was known as the True Spirit Realm.

Only by condensing the essence soul and true spirit could divine beings understand the essence of this world on a more detailed level and comprehend the Dao rhythm that was everywhere in the world!

If one’s cultivation level was not high enough, one would naturally not be able to see anything.

Even though he was already the top expert in the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons, he could not change this rule. Only through certain special blessed spots or treasures that contained a strong Dao rhythm could he clearly sense the existence of “Dao”.

However, what was Jiao Jiao’s cultivation level?

At most, he was only at the Primal Core Realm!

In such a realm, one’s soul was often very weak and still in an unpolished state, not much harder than an egg. Once it left the body, it was very easy for one’s soul to dissipate and die, what more to use one’s essence soul to understand the world.

However, it was under such circumstances that Feng Xia did something that even he could not do!

“If you insist. I can only say that there are a total of three steps.”

Feng Xia thought seriously for a moment before answering with a frown.

Jiao Qingtu immediately perked up and paid attention, not wanting to miss a single word from Feng Xia.

“The first step is to soak yourself in the cold pool.”

“Then…?”

“The second step is to close your eyes and merge with the heavens to sense the Great Dao of heaven and earth with all your might.”

“And?”

For some reason, Jiao Qingtu suddenly narrowed his eyes. He felt a faint pain in his temples as a bad premonition arose.

As he expected, Feng Xia immediately said, “Then, the Great Dao of heaven and earth will surge towards you. Be careful when absorbing it. Don’t choke.”

Jiao Qingtu was silent for a long time before a question mark finally appeared on his forehead.

What the hell are you talking about?

What the heck did he mean by the Great Dao of heaven and earth automatically surging over? He even said to be careful not to choke when absorbing it. Did he think he was eating chives?

“Kid, I’m very serious. I’m not joking with you!”

Feng Xia said helplessly, “I’m also very serious. I’m really not joking.”

Why is it that nobody believes the truth anymore these days?

“You…” Jiao Qingtu choked and raised his hand, but in the end, he summarized all his words into short sentences, “Then are you done cultivating? Can you continue to accept the inheritances of the 10,000 Dragons Painting?”

Although Feng Xia really wanted to say that he was not done yet, after considering the old man’s endurance ability, he decided to put this thought aside for now.

After all, the cold pool would always be there. At most, he would come again in the future.

He only had three days with this Flood Dragon Clan expert’s inheritances. Once he missed it, it was very likely that it would be gone and there would be no chance for him to regret it.

“We can continue.” Feng Xia-Jiao Jiao nodded lightly.

“Then, let me see… how many dragon forms you can destroy next!”

Accompanied by Jiao Qingtu’s angry roar, tens of thousands of dragon forms rose into the sky and became interwoven into a magnificent scroll painting. It symbolized the blood and sweat of the East Sea Flood Dragon experts and the supreme inheritance of the entire race!

Feng Xia had destroyed 14 dragon forms the first time. Based on his estimation, the number of dragon forms would be around 20 the second time round.

Of course, destroying the dragon form did not mean that he had mastered it. It only meant that he had resonated with the particular inheritance and obtained its recognition, and that he was qualified to cultivate this inheritance.

“Good!”

Feng Xia could not be bothered to waste his breath and attacked without another word.

All along, he only had one principle.

Yours will eventually be mine. Even if it’s not mine for the time being, it will definitely be mine in the future. I will create a better you and a stronger me.

Not long after, a trembling voice came from within the valley.

“100… 111 dragon forms!”

…

Demon Capital.

On the top floor of a tall obelisk.

“Great Prophet, is there… really no issues with Jiao Qingtu?”

“No issues.”

An aged voice sounded. The owner of the voice slowly turned around. It was actually an old pangolin. He shook his head with a smile and said, “The strings of fate have been plucked a long time ago. It’s impartial and balanced. Everything has gone on the right track.”

Beside the pangolin stood a tall woman in a red dress.

She instinctively frowned and said worriedly, “But the Ruler isn’t around. If that old flood dragon finds out that something is wrong, I’m afraid that those demon kings won’t be able to stop him…”

“There’s no need for them to be able to block it. Zhongxiu, can’t you tell yet?”

The old pangolin laughed. “That old flood dragon is already dead. After three days, whether he is willing or not, his obsession will definitely dissipate. How can he enter the Demon Capital again?”

The woman in the red dress was horrified.

It was only then that she finally understood why her master was so calm and did not show any signs of worry after Jiao Qingtu left.

Just as the old pangolin had said, the strings of fate had long been plucked, and everything was on the right track.

“Prepare yourself. The opening of the Demon Imperial Tombs this time round will create an unprecedented era. Although you used to be a human princess, since you’ve acknowledged me as your master, you have to think about the future of this country.”

The old pangolin walked forward slowly and said indifferently, “Let’s go. I’ll bring you to meet His Highness the Holy Son.”

“So… so fast?!”

At the mention of this name, the woman in the red dress could not help but shudder.

Before today, she had never seen the Holy Son. However, the name of a person was like the shadow of a tree. In the few months since she came to the Demon Capital, the various brutal means and resolute decisions taken by the Holy Son had long left a deep shadow in her heart.

“Why does His Highness the Holy Son… want to see me?”

“He wants to test your loyalty.”

The old pangolin chuckled and said, “Therefore, there’s an important mission for you.”
