Cultivating with Top Enlightenment Chapter 898 - 383: Unity
Previously on Cultivating with Top Enlightenment...
Cultivators from the Vast Realm mouthed the words in silence, chanting and intoning together as one.
Their chanting pace was astonishingly swift, blending into a unified hum that baffled any onlooker trying to make out the words.
Without Ning Qi's earlier coercion of the Saint Ancestor into deploying the Nine-Word Demon Subduing Incantation, he would have remained clueless about the incantation being uttered by the Vast Realm cultivators.
"So the old man had already made preparations."
Upon witnessing this, Ning Qi grasped at once the method to counter these warped beasts.
He channeled every ounce of his power right away, assuming the Lion’s Roar posture and unleashing a thunderous bellow toward the firmament.
"Roar!"
Sound waves erupted through the emptiness, forming a massive lion head.
Fearless Lion’s Roar!
The bellow rattled the skies, its sonic ripples surging outward like ocean swells.
Though Ning Qi’s technique fell short of the Nine-Word Demon Subduing Incantation cast by the Saint Ancestor’s avatar in might, it wove in diverse Tao Sounds for banishing fiends and warding off malevolence, perfectly clashing against the fiendish clamor from the ten enormous beasts.
The ten beasts were blasted back all at once by the Lion’s Roar’s impact.
Yet their howls turned fiercer and more frenzied.
Luckily, Ning Qi had no plan to eradicate these pesky fiends with a single Lion’s Roar; disrupting their fiendish noises and snapping everyone back to awareness sufficed.
He peered below, and sure enough, with the Lion’s Roar resounding, the Mountain and Sea Realm cultivators—lost in a daze—snapped awake.
The Vast Realm cultivators might have capitalized on this moment for a fatal assault on their Mountain and Sea Realm foes.
They never expected, however, that their adversaries would counter so swiftly.
"That guy ruined our plans again!"
Jiang Yingchu, Sect Leader of the Vast Immortal Sect, shot an irritated glare at Ning Qi, only to dive back into combat with Gong Tiandao moments later.
Ning Qi spun around, observing Zhao Yujun swing her blade once more against the monsters.
Regardless of her strikes—be it hundreds or thousands of sword flashes in mere instants, pulverizing the twisted monsters to powder—they reformed swiftly thereafter.
"Let me handle this, I’ve just created a new divine technique that might deal with them," Ning Qi declared.
Zhao Yujun froze for a beat.
"You’ve just created a new divine technique?"
So confident?
Ning Qi skipped explanations and jabbed a finger at the ten massive twisted monsters overhead.
Myriads of Sword Pills materialized anew, overcrowding the void.
This time around, though, the Sword Pills shifted form into the divine technique from his climactic clash with the Saint Ancestor’s avatar.
"Ten Thousand Swords Opening Lotus!"
The rune-etched Sword Pills hovering in the void swiftly morphed into radiant golden lotuses, rune shadows dancing upon them, subtly infused with the essence of the Saint Ancestor’s Nine-Word Demon Subduing Incantation.
Before, Ning Qi had employed this sword lotus to draw in the glow from the Saint Ancestor’s Nine-Word Demon Subduing Incantation, and since the Vast Realm cultivators’ chant restrained these monsters, the sword lotus ought to mirror that restraint.
Ning Qi snapped his finger.
Sword lotuses rocketed skyward, radiating matchless destructive force alongside purifying demon-banishing radiance.
Whoosh Whoosh!
Upon closing in on the ten colossal monsters, the sword lotuses reshaped yet again, detonating in sequence.
Aloft in the heavens, the ten behemoths found themselves utterly encircled by sword lotuses.
Onlookers lifted their eyes to the celestial vault.
In that instant, it appeared as if myriad Dharma Aspects manifested together, heavenly blossoms drifting through the air in mesmerizing splendor.
The bursting sword lotuses splintered into minuscule lotus blades, morphing into blooms that pierced into the ten monsters’ flesh.
Bang!
The ten monsters detonated outright once more!
Innumerable lotuses bloomed, ensnaring their shattered chunks, enfolding them, and purifying each fragment progressively.
"!!!"
Zhao Yujun, Sect Leader of the Moon Sea Immortal Sect, watched nearly stupefied.
She whipped her head toward Ning Qi at her side, her vivid blue eyes fluttering, as if questioning, is this the divine technique you just created?
Who could wield a freshly forged divine technique with such devastating might right away?
Those ten monsters had coalesced from hundreds of twisted ones originally.
Yet now, a brand-new divine technique had obliterated them all in unison, rendering Zhao Yujun utterly astounded.
Ning Qi, though, lacked the moment to chat with Zhao Yujun.
His thoughts stayed fixed on directing the myriad minuscule lotus blossoms compressing the emptiness overhead.
Earlier, with over a hundred in count, these monsters lacked the distinct power levels typical of cultivators.
Still, the might of each matched precisely that of a Harmonization cultivator.
Afterward, as they fused into ten, their power soared straight to match Zhao Yujun, Gong Tiandao, and Jiang Yingchu, the top sect leaders.
Without enduring the unparalleled Thirty-six Layers of Celestial Tribulation and drawing in energy from the four cardinal directions, Ning Qi couldn't confidently claim to resist these ten monsters without deploying his body's maximum strength.
High in the firmament, Ning Qi's sword lotus divine technique lingered without fading, tinting the heavens with dazzling colors.
The lotuses whirled and tightened, relentlessly wearing down the remnants of those monsters.
A few breaths passed before the sword lotus entirely dissolved from the sky, restoring pristine clarity with no signs apparently left.
Ning Qi's look stayed somewhat solemn.
Observing him, Zhao Yujun sensed curiosity rising; could that mighty sword lotus technique, so overwhelmingly potent, still fall short of destroying these ten monsters?
Down below, Jiang Yingchu, the Sect Leader of the Vast Immortal Sect, kept his gaze locked on Ning Qi's every move.
The sight of Ning Qi unleashing his sword lotus divine technique stunned him, for he detected the Ancestor's aura woven into it.
What's truly unfolding here? How does Ning Qi's technique hold the Ancestor's power?
