Cultivating with Top Enlightenment Chapter 984 - 423: Who Says I’m Alone? (3)

However, no one could achieve their level through cultivation; they hadn't even embarked on the Dao, practicing solely based on the methods of the three ancestors, let alone surpassing them.

It's akin to countless teachers imparting various knowledge to young minds globally, yet in reality, only a rare few truly master and proficiently apply it, not to mention those daring enough to forge their own paths.

The Saint Ancestor, Mountain Ancestor, and Sea Ancestor were such individuals, and Ning Qi transcended them all!

Ning Qi, with his swiftness and eagerness to learn, had been progressing without pause since the Saint Ancestor began paying attention to him.

The Saint Ancestor's avatar clearly perceived that Ning Qi had absorbed the full heritage from both himself and the Sea Ancestor, and had now surpassed them.

Ning Qi had assimilated their great Daos into his own power, integrating them into his personal Great Dao!

"Worthy of the name Immortal Species!"

The Saint Ancestor's avatar displayed a mix of joy and sorrow.

In the distance, the Dragon-faced Cultivator's eyelids spasmed.

He had to concede that he had underestimated Ning Qi.

But, could the figure before him truly be the Ning Qi from the remote Spirit Domain under his command?

The Dragon-faced Cultivator, still harboring resentment, clung to his doubts.

"Who exactly are you?"

The Dragon-faced Cultivator inquired.

Within the void, a shadow fish swished its tail, obliterating all traces of dragon breath, once again revealing Ning Qi's form.

"What do you think, Mountain Ancestor?"

Ning Qi inquired calmly.

The Dragon-faced Cultivator was rendered speechless, already mentally equating Ning Qi with some hidden expert of comparable strength.

"With your level of cultivation, even if Ning Qi cultivated for another thousand years, he wouldn't reach this realm. Why bother concealing your identity and inviting ridicule?"

Ning Qi was at a loss for words.

This fellow was truly paranoid.

He couldn't be bothered to engage further; no matter what he said, the other party would question its authenticity.

Ning Qi then directed his attention to the Saint Ancestor's avatar and the Vast Realm Will behind it.

"Both of you, I shall send you out first. The entire Vast Realm has been plunged into catastrophe, and the outside world still requires you!"

The Vast Realm Will regarded Ning Qi silently.

The Saint Ancestor's avatar also gazed at Ning Qi's placid face, remarking, "Can you truly handle this alone? I've observed you continuously avoiding direct confrontation with him."

Ning Qi chuckled, "Old man, who says the younger generation cannot bear the responsibility? I was merely preparing earlier. Besides..."

Ning Qi paused momentarily.

"Besides what?"

The Saint Ancestor's avatar appeared anxious, frustrated by this brat's continued games of riddles at such a critical juncture.

Ning Qi suddenly snapped his fingers.

Within the cavernous expanse, the Dragon-faced Cultivator had been in the process of opening a spatial passage to connect with the Buzhou Mountain Illusion, where the Mountain Ancestor was gathering a miniature Divine Mountain Illusion, intending to project it into this core region of the Vast Realm.

However, just as he was on the verge of success, Ning Qi's snap of fingers disrupted everything.

The spatial passage hovering above the Dragon-faced Cultivator's head abruptly sealed shut.

The Saint Ancestor's avatar, the Vast Realm Will, the Dragon-faced Cultivator, and indeed all beings within the Vast Realm who were observing the celestial events, witnessed a young, slender cultivator elegantly closing that spatial passage, descending with ethereal grace as if severing a cosmic thread.

His speed was at its zenith; in the next instant, he materialized beside the Dragon-faced Cultivator.

With a swift movement, he ripped the dragon-shaped mask from the Dragon-faced Cultivator's face.

"Who said I was alone?"

Ning Qi stated nonchalantly.

"Furthermore, aren't you the true hidden one, the one behind the mask?"
