Cultivating with Top Enlightenment Chapter 916 - 391: Leaving the True Martial Realm

At the summit of Heaven-Reaching Peak, which stands as the paramount pinnacle within the Mountain and Sea Realm, its altitude was such that one could practically pluck stars from the heavens.

The Mountain Ancestor lifted his gaze towards the sky.

What greeted his eyes was an expanse of void, its true nature beyond comprehension.

After a brief pause, he retracted his sight and redirected his attention to the ongoing war domain.

Simultaneously, another individual was also fixedly observing the events within the war domain.

The True Martial Realm.

It existed as an appendage below the Mountain and Sea Realm, adrift within the boundless Sea of Realms, yet inextricably linked to the Mountain and Sea Realm.

A faint, almost imperceptible vine spanned the gap between the two, functioning as the spatial conduit for passage between these distinct realms.

Realm Lord Ning Qi ventured closer to the boundary wall, his own gaze fixed upon the war domain.

More accurately, his attention was divided between the situations unfolding in the Mountain and Sea Realm and the Vast Realm.

As an entity situated beyond the confines of both these spiritual worlds, neither he nor the True Martial Realm had yet attracted the awareness of the two worlds or their respective Ancestors.

Should Ning Qi's true self desire entry into the Mountain and Sea Realm, he possessed the means to traverse this spatial channel directly.

This was facilitated by his prior act of dispatching a reincarnation to be birthed within the Mountain and Sea Realm. As this reincarnation was presently within the war domain, Ning Qi's true self could forge a direct spatial passage to it, leveraging the inherent connection.

Consequently, unrestricted access to both the Mountain and Sea Realm and the war domain was now at his disposal.

The sole domain that remained inaccessible to Realm Lord Ning Qi was the Vast Realm.

However, his reincarnation had successfully relayed a significant number of life imprints from the Vast Realm cultivators who had met their end within the war domain.

By analyzing these life imprints, Ning Qi's true self could ascertain the precise coordinates of the Vast Realm.

A solitary hurdle remained: breaching the spatial barrier separating the True Martial Realm from the Vast Realm, thereby establishing a connection akin to the one linking the True Martial Realm with the Mountain and Sea Realm.

In stark contrast to the war domain, the boundary of the Vast Realm presented a significantly more formidable obstacle.

Thus, Ning Qi was compelled to engineer a clandestine channel capable of reaching the Vast Realm.

Realm Lord Ning Qi surveyed the entirety of the war domain, perceiving its circumstances with perfect clarity, as if he were physically present.

This was a given, as he shared sensory input with his reincarnation.

Observing the Saint Ancestor and Sea Ancestor engaged in their fierce confrontation, Ning Qi allowed a subtle smile to grace his lips.

"My apologies, but my focus cannot be diverted to you at this moment."

There's an old saying: While one is tending to the cattle, another is chopping wood. If you spend the entire day idly chatting with the cattle herder, by the time he finishes his task, your wood remains unchopped.

It was sufficient to have his reincarnation acting as an observer; his true self also needed to fulfill its purpose, meticulously preparing for the eventual assimilation of both realms.

Ning Qi harbored no malicious intent, merely plotting to infiltrate the spiritual worlds under the cover of the Ancestors' conflict.

A seemingly benevolent smile played on Ning Qi's features, yet he couldn't help but ponder their astonishment should they discover their homes being pilfered.

In essence, Ning Qi eagerly anticipated the unfolding events.

His immediate priority was to forge a link between the True Martial Realm and the Vast Realm, utilizing the life imprints he had acquired.

Truth be told, such imprints weren't strictly necessary.

Following the acquisition of the initial set of life imprints from the Vast Realm cultivators, Ning Qi's true self employed the Reincarnation Technique, facilitating the rebirth of numerous True Martial Realm cultivators within the Vast Realm.

Although he hadn't personally divided his will for reincarnation into the Vast Realm on this occasion, Ning Qi, in his capacity as the Realm Lord of the True Martial Realm, maintained an intrinsic connection with those he guided and dispatched.

This very connection enabled Ning Qi to pinpoint the location of the Vast Realm.

Nevertheless, since the commencement of the spiritual world war, less than three months had elapsed.

The reincarnated individuals in the Vast Realm were, at most, three months old, while others were not even fully mature, resulting in an exceptionally tenuous connection with Ning Qi at present.

Ning Qi approached the boundary wall of the True Martial Realm and, with a sudden extension of his hand, pierced directly through it.

The world's boundary wall functioned much like a fortification, akin to the thick peel of a colossal fruit, effectively isolating the entire Sea of Realms from its interior.

Its purpose was dual: to thwart invasions from the Sea of Realms and to safeguard the world's development and the continued existence of its inhabitants.

Ning Qi's right hand passed effortlessly through the world's boundary wall; however, the True Martial Realm's boundary was of extraordinary thickness, rendering it impossible to fully penetrate with only the length of a single hand.

Ning Qi quietly contemplated for a moment; the thickness of the True Martial Realm’s boundary wall measured approximately ten miles!

The greater a world's strength, the more substantial its boundary wall becomes, growing progressively sturdier.

In essence, the world boundary wall directly corresponds to the world’s overall power.

It can only increase in thickness, never diminish; any reduction would invite unwelcome presences from the Sea of Realms.

Ning Qi retracted his right hand and examined it; his entire right arm appeared as smooth as ever, bearing no trace of any abrasion.

Given that he embodies both the Realm Lord of the True Martial Realm and its very World Will, the boundary wall of the True Martial Realm is not perceived as a barrier or a distinct layer by him, but rather as an intrinsic part of his own being.

Only World Wills or beings of Ancestor-level are capable of perceiving the Sea of Realms' existence, or even establishing contact with it.

Ning Qi fulfills both these prerequisites, a fact that fuels his confidence in his ability to transcend the two spirit worlds, as well as the Saint Ancestor, Sea Ancestor, and Mountain Ancestor!

As the World Will for the True Martial Realm, he is unfettered by the constraints of the True Martial Realm’s physical form, possessing the freedom to traverse in and out at will.

Moreover, Ning Qi is simultaneously an individual entity and a wielder of a world's power!

Ultimately, Ning Qi stands as a singular existence, harmonizing the strengths of both aspects, which inherently positions him as superior to them.
