Cultivating with Top Enlightenment Chapter 789 - 332: Everyone Wants Me as Their Disciple?

Ning Qi felt an immediate surge of emotion upon receiving the news.

From the Mountain and Sea Realm Will's statement, he swiftly discerned numerous underlying implications.

To begin with, the Mountain Ancestor and Sea Ancestor evidently possessed means to monitor the War domain's conditions and comprehend his experiences inside, prompting Ning Qi to grow inwardly cautious.

Normally, the War domain arises from the wills of two realms, where only those realm wills ought to sense internal happenings.

Similar to the True Martial Realm, where solely Ning Qi, as Realm Lord, can probe any location's status freely, with no other entities in the True Martial Realm holding such power!

However, the Mountain Ancestor and Sea Ancestor, mere cultivators in the realm, manage to detect external realm situations, suggesting either their cultivation reaches horrifying heights, their bond with the Mountain and Sea Realm Will stands exceptionally close, or perhaps a combination of both.

No matter the case, it spells trouble for Ning Qi.

Next, the Mountain Ancestor and Sea Ancestor's desire to accept him as disciple reveals they not only grasp his War domain circumstances but also everything from his existence in the Mountain and Sea Realm.

These two Ancestors count as mythic legends, and it's unclear how many ages have passed since they last took a disciple.

For a crucial event like disciple selection, how could they proceed without full knowledge of the candidate?

In under two centuries, Ning Qi reached Integration Perfection, an unmatched feat across the whole Mountain and Sea Realm. He pondered whether the two Ancestors harbored suspicions over his swift progress?

Furthermore, is their intent genuinely to mentor him, or do hidden motives lurk? These questions linger unresolved.

Thirdly, if the Mountain and Sea Realm's two Ancestors can track his status, does that imply the Vast Realm's Saint Ancestor might also learn of his War domain activities?

This poses yet another hazard to Ning Qi, further urging him to stay alert, uncertain of what actions the Saint Ancestor could unleash against him.

Ning Qi feigned delight and addressed the Mountain and Sea Realm Will, "Realm Venerable, did the Mountain Ancestor and Sea Ancestor truly declare that?"

The Mountain and Sea Realm Will replied, "I came in person to relay this wish; do you doubt its authenticity?"

Ning Qi responded, "Not at all, it's merely that this revelation arrived so abruptly. I'm genuinely astonished to catch the eye of the two Ancestors. Might it be that the Realm Venerable shared details of my circumstances with them?"

He posed this query to test the scope of the two Ancestors' capabilities.

The Mountain and Sea Realm Will shifted into a hazy, vague silhouette, its traits utterly indistinguishable.

Manifesting in front of Ning Qi, it appeared to scrutinize him intently.

"Indeed, even without my notification, they would have uncovered your situation anyway."

The Mountain and Sea Realm Will offered this uncommon explanation.

Ning Qi grasped the point at once.

Goodness gracious, the Mountain Ancestor and Sea Ancestor's abilities truly surpass the ordinary. Could they actually monitor the War domain without relying on the Mountain and Sea Realm Will?

Ning Qi grew intensely curious regarding the ties between the two Ancestors and the Mountain and Sea Realm Will.

In general, despite the two Ancestors representing the summit of power in the Mountain and Sea Realm, they ought to yield to the Mountain and Sea Realm Will.

Unlike Ning Qi, who completely eradicated the True Martial Realm Will to claim the role of True Martial Realm Lord himself.

"Realm Venerable, with both Ancestors seeking me as disciple, I can't possibly select them both. As the messenger, could you offer guidance on which Ancestor to accept?"

The Mountain and Sea Realm Will cleared its throat before declaring, "I recommend you select the Sea Ancestor as your master. She's warned that without you, she would obliterate you to prevent anyone else from claiming you!"

Ning Qi's brows knitted together.

What sort of aggressive declaration is this? Is the Sea Ancestor perhaps unhinged?

After brief reflection, Ning Qi pressed further, "Realm Venerable, as Profound Truth Realm's Domain Master, that domain falls under the Mountain Ancestor's domain. Choosing the Sea Ancestor wouldn't provoke the Mountain Ancestor...?"

The Mountain and Sea Realm Will chuckled, "You consider matters deeply. The Mountain Ancestor possesses a domineering nature, so if he learns you picked the Sea Ancestor, what do you suppose he'd do?"

Ning Qi fell silent.

What option would remain but to annihilate the Profound Truth Realm?

He promptly stated, "In that case, never mind. Could the Realm Venerable convey my regrets to the two Ancestors? I appreciate their interest, yet as an Integration cultivator, I'm simply unqualified to serve as their disciple."

Ning Qi sought to avoid entanglement between the Mountain Ancestor and Sea Ancestor, turning him into their dispute's focus.

A single misstep could expose his reincarnation mission in the Mountain and Sea Realm to the two Ancestors, dooming his efforts.

Moreover, their true purposes remain obscure. After all, Ning Qi emerged as a free spirit of heaven and earth; how could he bow to another?

The two Ancestors might view this as a grand honor, but should Ning Qi aim to conquer both the Mountain and Sea Realm and the Vast Realm, what significance do the Ancestors hold?

Still, without assessing their strength fully, even with the True Martial Realm amassing hundreds of paths, it falls short against the Two Spirit Realms, so Ning Qi needs to bolster and gather power steadily before rising to prominence.

Upon hearing Ning Qi's refusal, the Mountain and Sea Realm Will displayed real astonishment.

The opportunity to apprentice under the Ancestors is one no cultivator in the Mountain and Sea Realm would forsake, yet Ning Qi chose to decline them outright.

The Mountain and Sea Realm Will found itself esteeming Ning Qi even more.

It abruptly proposed, "Your boldness in rejecting the two Ancestors is rare indeed. Why not become my disciple instead?"

"Hmm?"

Ning Qi froze in surprise.

His thoughts raced wildly, unsure of the true dynamics or the reason behind the Mountain and Sea Realm Will's sudden offer of discipleship.

"This..." Ning Qi wavered, "If the Realm Venerable desires me as disciple, I'd gladly accept, but what of the Mountain Ancestor and Sea Ancestor?"
