Chapter 873 - Continuous Breakthroughs! Sword Enlightenment!

“Woo…” On the sea, a sudden gust of wind blew and dark clouds covered the originally bright sky.

Not long after, dark clouds gathered and lightning flashed while thunder crashed and boomed.

The Qi of Heaven and Earth roared and rushed over in all directions like gusts of wild wind, rolling up the waves.

On the back of the blue whale, Fang Qiu closed his eyes and knew nothing about what was happening between heaven and earth.

In the distance, people of the Huaxia Wulin led by He Gaoming were about to take the boats along the island. When they heard the roar far away, they immediately turned their heads and looked at it in surprise.

“Is that where Senior John Doe headed for?”

“It’s just early in the morning, and the sky has just brightened. Why did dark clouds gather all of a sudden?”

“What’s going on over there? How can the morning light be covered?”

“Is Senior John Doe about to make a breakthrough?” The man who had broken through to the fifth-class by a tap given by Fang Qiu widened his eyes wide and said in shock.

“Breakthrough?”

“It should be. Otherwise, Senior John Doe wouldn’t have left in such a hurry.”

“But, this is so amazing. Senior John Doe’s breakthrough can actually cause such a huge unusual phenomenon.”

Everyone was astounded.

“Are you envious?” Looking at the shocking crowd, He Gaoming let out a laugh. While drawing everyone’s attention, he asked loudly.

Everyone nodded.

It would be a lie to say that they were not envious!

“If you’re envious, then acknowledge my master as your leader. I’m sure you’ll be able to enjoy a good life.” He Gaoming said while proudly raising his head.

Everyone’s eyes suddenly lit up after they heard that.

Nowadays, people in Wulin had already reached a consensus that John Doe would definitely become a guru. It was just a matter of time. It was bound to be a great thing to have a leader who could become a guru!

Seeing the expressions on everyone’s faces, He Gaoming snickered.

He thought to himself, “Master, I’ve recruited a lot of people for you. I have to get some profits from this!”

Fang Qiu’s internal Qi was like a torrent.

Since he didn’t need to put much effort on reopen his meridian, he directly poured the internal Qi into the Yangwei Meridian. Just like he reopened his meridian before, the huge flow of internal Qi instantly caused the Yangwei Meridian to swell, and numerous cracks instantly spread out.

At this time, a layer of cyan energy suddenly flashed on the meridian. Under the protection of this layer of energy, countless cracks on the meridian began to heal at an extremely fast speed!

“Break!” With the help of cyan energy, the cracks on the Yangwei Meridian inside his body swiftly healed. When the Yangwei Meridian was completely reopened, the internal Qi in Fang Qiu’s body continued to rush toward the next meridian like a running river!

He became a seventh-class Martial Superior with two opened meridians.

Fang Qiu didn’t expect that re-open of the meridians could be so simple.

It was so simple that he didn’t consume much internal Qi.

“What? That’s weird.” Just as he controlled his internal Qi to impact the next meridian, he surprisingly found that the cyan energy, which had enveloped Yangwei Meridian, quickly poured into the next meridian after healing the wounds of the Yangwei Meridian, which was ahead of the movement of his internal Qi.

With the flow of this energy, Fang Qiu clearly felt that the flow of internal Qi under his control was rapidly enhancing!

He was making a breakthrough, not cultivating.

The internal Qi in his body was stable. After breaking through Yangwei Meridian, he did not consume too much internal Qi. Instead, it was increasing. What was going on?

An idea struck him.

He immediately drove his mental power to check.

It turned out that the suddenly strengthened internal Qi in his body was transformed by the power of the Cyan Dragon Lock, which was drawn from heaven and earth.

In other words, the Cyan Dragon Lock could actually draw the Qi of Heaven and Earth into his body!

This discovery amazed Fang Qiu.

He had seen and eaten numerous Heaven and Earth Treasures, but he had never encountered such a magical one!

Generally, after swallowing it, the Heaven and Earth Treasure would directly turn into energy and enter the body. It could simply be regarded as a mass of energy. However, the Cyan Dragon Lock could not only turn into energy and flow into the body but also attract the Qi of Heaven and Earth into the body. The effect was exceptional!

“No wonder the legendary top 10 Heaven and Earth Treasure are so magical. It really has such an amazing efficacy!” Fang Qiu was appalled.

Just like how he helped the special forces, Li Ji, He Gaoming, Liang Fen, and others to improve their strength, he forcefully gathered a large amount of Qi of Heaven and Earth around the people who needed help, and even drove the Qi of Heaven and Earth into their bodies, so as to promote their strength.

It was this efficacy that made the Cyan Dragon Lock so special!

How much could Fang Qiu improve a person’s strength with the power of a guru? Could he make a first-class Martial Superior improve three classes in a row?

Obviously, he couldn’t!

But this Cyan Dragon Lock was different.

Even a seventh-class Martial Superior could break through to open two meridians in a row by taking this treasure. If a first-class Martial Superior took it, he or she would be able to break through all the way to become a fourth-class or even fifth-class Martial Superior!

At this moment, Fang Qiu once again deeply felt the exceptional power of the top 10 Heaven Treasure.

And the condition inside his body also made him understand why the previous sense of breakthrough could be suppressed for several days, but this time it couldn’t be suppressed at all.

It was because of the Cyan Dragon Lock!

The energy transformed by the Cyan Dragon Lock could draw the Qi of Heaven and Earth into his body and also attract the energy inside his body to impact the next meridian that needed a breakthrough and reopened. This was why he had difficulty suppressing it.

“What if I don’t control it?” Thinking of this, Fang Qiu began to try to release the control of internal Qi in his body.

The internal Qi being released in his body didn’t stop at all. Instead, it gathered more and more, and the impact was getting stronger and stronger. Although it seemed to get rid of the shackles, it didn’t hurt Fang Qiu at all. It just passed through the Yangwei Meridian and rushed toward the Yinwei Meridian quickly.

Just like that, Fang Qiu was watching while controlling the situation inside his body via his Insight.

It worked the same as reopening the Yangwei Meridian.

The strong internal Qi rushed into the Yinwei Meridian and instantly opened it!

Then, the internal Qi poured in.

The energy transformed by the Cyan Dragon Lock showed the cyan light again.

The reopened meridian was like a snake that had just shed its skin. Under the cover of the cyan light, there was a faint glow circulating.

He didn’t know how long it had taken.

When the Yinwei Meridian was completely reopened and the internal Qi in his body was replenished to a large extent. The energy transformed by the Cyan Dragon Lock was also exhausted. Fang Qiu finally ended the whole process of breakthrough and slowly opened his eyes.

There was a glint in his eyes.

The endless sea and the beautiful sunset in the sky greeted him.

It was as if nothing had happened.

“Ah…” Standing up and feeling the refreshed feeling after the breakthrough, Fang Qiu couldn’t help but roar to the sky, expressing his joy.

As he let out a long howl, Fang Qiu occasionally glanced at the sunset in the sky.

The crimson sunset kept changing forms with the sea breeze.

Sometimes clouds gathered but sometimes they dispersed.

Fang Qiu was suddenly stunned as he saw that.

The howl stopped abruptly, and he stood motionless on the back of the blue whale, staring at the sunset in the sky.

“Gather, change…” It had been a while.

Something popped out in Fang Qiu’s mind.

“Gather the energy of heaven and earth and control it in the palm!”

Suddenly, he thought of the last line of words in the cave when he learned the Great Hand of Destruction.

“What is gathering?

“What is hand?

“If you can gather, you can disperse, and if you can disperse, you can condense.

“Since you are in control, you shall do whatever you want!”

Suddenly, Fang Qiu smiled.

He smiled heartily.

He was enlightened!

“Since I can do whatever I want, why do I have to make a palm?” As he spoke, Fang Qiu raised his right hand slightly in front of his eyes.

He gently twisted his fingers.

The Qi of Heaven and Earth in the sky above the boundless ocean seemed to have been immensely attracted. Like strips of colorful ribbons in an exhibition, they rushed toward Fang Qiu’s fingertips from all directions.

Unfortunately, there was no one on the sea.

If someone were there, they would be able to see that the thin figure standing on the back of the blue whale seemed to connect the heaven and earth in this area.

Under the sunset, the surging Qi of Heaven and Earth condensed into a flower on Fang Qiu’s fingertip.

It was a huge lotus flower.

Flower petals swayed in the wind as they slowly fell off. After which, they transformed into tiny stars. As the sky gradually darkened, the blue stars were reflecting an enormous creature that was still swimming in the sea, as well as a faint figure.

“Buzz!” At a certain moment, there was suddenly a thump between heaven and earth.

The blue stars all over the sky suddenly stopped, quickly turned back, and fell back to Fang Qiu’s fingertips at an extremely fast speed.

However, strangely, as the Qi of Heaven and Earth returned, the energy gathering on Fang Qiu’s fingertips was only the size of a thumb. With the return of the Qi of Heaven and Earth, the small mass of energy became more dazzling, but it didn’t grow bigger.

At some point, Fang Qiu had closed his eyes tightly.

He merely stood still and allowed the cold sea wind to blow on his face, and his clothes rustled.

Fang Qiu murmured with a smile, “Each flower has its own world; and each leaf has its own greenery. When the flower will fade, when the leaf will wither, we should all give everything back to the earth at the last moment. A glimpse of a spot reveals the whole panther, and a drop of water reveals the ocean. The smallest of things is often a microcosm of the larger world, and the infinite is often treasured in the finite.”

He opened his eyes.

As he raised his right fingertips, the thumb-sized energy mass disappeared in a flash.

“This is control.” He waved his hand.

The Qi of Heaven and Earth from all directions surged over like a whirlpool and instantly condensed in front of him.

As he looked closely, a long sword formed by the energy floated in front of him.

It was an ordinary-looking long sword made completely of the Qi of Heaven and Earth, whose color was silver.

There was a Taiji diagram on the handle of the long sword!

Suddenly, Fang Qiu said in a low voice, “Space-splitting Sea-cracking Sword!”

At the next moment, Fang Qiu, who hadn’t moved for a long time, suddenly swung his right hand, grabbed the silver long sword floating in front of him, and then slashed forward!

“Boom…” The moment he swung his long sword, a gust of extremely powerful energy burst out from the silver sword. It condensed into an incredibly fierce and terrifying sword Qi and charged forward.

Sword Qi surged.

Clouds floated in all directions in the sky.

With a momentum that seemed to split the sky, the terrifying sword Qi rushed through the sea.

Wherever the Sword Qi passed, the surging sea surface was directly cut into two halves, leaving a deep gap. The creatures in the sea swam through it, and the moment a creature entered this gap, it was directly cut into pieces by the remaining Sword Qi.
