Becoming a god starts from planting a Bodhi tree.

Chapter 121: Return to Oneness, Invitation from the Mu Family (Additional Chapter 1 for Nuan Yang)

"Senior Zhuang, are you still planning to practice martial arts next?"

"Of course, I can't let go of martial arts."

“I wish Senior Zhuang will soar to the sky with his accumulated experience!”

Zhuang Bu Tong laughed and shook his head without saying anything.

At his age, in terms of telepathy and spiritual practice, he has indeed accumulated a lot of experience, but his physical body has already been formed. He has passed the golden age for martial arts training, and it is hard to say how far he can go in the future.

"By the way, was that knife left by Coach He?" Ji Jingqiu suddenly asked.

"Yeah." Zhuang Bu Tong suddenly remembered that Ji Jingqiu also practiced the Eternal Sword, and it seemed that there were... five swords?
Just as he was about to say something, he heard Ji Jingqiu ask softly:

"Senior, did you hear the sound of a sword ahead?"

Zhuang Yifan's footsteps stopped suddenly.

He tilted his head and stared at the young man beside him who he had not seen for a while but seemed to have been reborn.

The young man who claimed that day that he would take down the seventh floor actually did it.

Where is his future?
Zhuang Bu Tong felt that he should not be able to see it.

He suddenly felt very happy, stretched out his hand and rubbed the boy's hair, smiling and saying:
"Keep it in your heart and don't tell anyone. When you are strong enough, come here again."

After seeing off Ji Jingqiu.

On his way back to the laboratory, Zhuang Bu Tong passed by a courtyard.

He stopped and looked at the old man who was fishing for gods in the courtyard.

The mind and heavenly beings can already enter the ocean of the soul in the flesh.

When one reaches the Grandmaster level, one can directly connect one's own dojo with the ocean of the soul, and be able to fish for the wild gods in one's own dojo.

"Master Ning." Zhuang Bu Tong greeted him with the usual courtesy.

The old man responded without looking back.

As usual, Zhuang Bu Tong greeted them and left.

But today, he rarely wanted to chat with Master Ning. It seemed as if there was a surge of anger brewing in his heart, running rampant in his chest, wanting to vent it out.

"That person just now is the junior I mentioned before, Ji Jingqiu. What do you think, Master Ning?"

The old man turned around with a slightly strange look in his eyes.

It wasn’t because of Ji Jingqiu, but because of Zhuang Bu Tong’s abnormality.

He still had some admiration for this junior who had been able to stick to his original intention for thirty-one years despite being instigated by Hela and had devoted his entire life to martial arts without reservation.

It is no exaggeration to say that this is the kind of warrior the Federation needs.

But this boy who used to be very calm and composed actually used a slightly boastful tone to introduce the young man to him...

"Yeah." The old man nodded slightly, indicating that he understood, without commenting.

There is no genius in front of the master.

No matter how talented Ji Jingqiu is, he would reach the pinnacle if he was praised as a master.

As for the old man, he had taken a look at Ji Jingqiu when he came before. His physique at the current level was indeed far superior to that of his predecessors. It was even more amazing that he could perform the prototype of the human body, heaven and earth Taoist temple at this level.

but……

In the old man's eyes, Ji Jingqiu was actually not as good as the wild young man who had attained the status of the God of Martial Arts a hundred years ago and was defeated by him on the seventh floor.

For an old man like him, being wild and even arrogant should be the best compliment to a young man.

It just so happened that the man a hundred years ago was the most “likable” young man he had ever seen in his life.

Just like what coach He said back then, if young people have ability, they should be crazy.

As for Ji Jingqiu, the old man recalled that he lacked some of the spirit of "who else but me", but he was actually quite good. Wasn't he quite high-spirited in that video?
"I heard that Master Ning also failed to gain recognition from that senior back then?" Zhuang Bu Tong suddenly asked.

The old man twitched his mouth and thought, what does this brat mean? Is he looking for a beating?

If they really roll up their sleeves and start fighting, Ning Fengyuan will not give those four gods any face!
As if aware of the old man's psychological activities, Zhuang Bu Tong said apologetically: "I am just a little curious, what kind of conditions are required to be recognized by that senior?"

The predecessor they were talking about was none other than the sword of former Marshal He that had suppressed Hela's body for ten thousand years.

At this point, the old man's expression became slightly better, and he snorted and said, "That thing's vision has been raised too picky by Marshal He. God knows who else in this federation can catch its eye!"

Zhuang Bu Tong thought about it and changed the way of asking the question: "If someone like that senior can take a fancy to me, is it possible that my future martial arts achievements can be comparable to those of He Shuai in the past?"

The old man pondered and said, "It's hard to say whether they can be compared with Master He. The achievements of those seven people back then were all due to the right time, right place and right people. It can be said that heaven and earth are working together, but at least they are not worse than me."

"I see."

Zhuang Bu Tong sighed, paid his respects and left.

The road ahead is long, it turns out that this is at least the road to becoming a master.

Looking at Zhuang Bu Tong's departing back, the old man became suspicious.

He took a step forward and actually stepped directly into the Crimson Laboratory. He stared at the long sword and activated the Eternal Sword in response.

No response.

Just like every year.

The old man spat in his heart, returned to the fishing ground, held the fishing rod in his hand, and fished for the wilderness gods with a wisp of his mind.

……

……

Sitting on the spaceship on the way back, Ji Jingqiu sorted out his harvest.

The secret method obtained from the long sword is called [Return to Oneness Secret], and its essence is the circulation of Qi. Ji Jingqiu roughly understood it, and it was like seeing a god. He never thought that Qi could be circulated in this way. It was simply mysterious and in line with the great way of heaven and earth!

He spent some time on the spaceship to deduce the secret method. But he couldn't deduce it any further.

It’s not a problem with Wu Hui’s comprehension, but his Qi cannot bear the weight of this secret method. He needs to transform his Qi into Yiqi Hunyuan Jin before continuing to try.

This made him secretly marvel. This secret method was indeed mysterious, and somewhat fits with the spiritual form of mountains and rivers that he has been trying to carve out. It emphasizes the energy that is like a dragon walking on water, continuous and uninterrupted, passing through various places, and finally all rivers converge into the sea and return to one place. Every gesture he makes has the power to move mountains and overturn seas.

This secret technique is extremely powerful, but it also requires a very high level of physical strength.

The more "great rivers" that the Qi passes through in the body, the greater its power will be when it eventually flows into the sea, and the greater the burden on the body will be.

Ji Jingqiu muttered to himself.

First it was the Eternal Sword, then the [Knife Carving Axe Chisel] which he suspected was also inherited by He Shuai, and now with this [Return to Oneness Secret]

If I continue, will I be able to complete the entire legacy of Coach He?

The long sword not only responded to him, but also told him its own name.

Its name [Xuan Yi] is taken from the meaning of "Xuan gives birth to all things, and everything returns to one."

But unfortunately, Ji Jingqiu is not qualified to take charge of it at the moment.

If he wants to pick up that knife, he must at least wait until he is promoted to a celestial being and comprehends the laws of heaven and earth.

Because the power contained in the knife is not at the legal level, but above the legal level - the Tao.

The master seeks the way, the grandmaster opens the way, that's what it means.

While comprehending the wonders of the Guiyi Jue, Ji Jingqiu was thinking about the news he got from Dr. Chen today.

He needs to verify the information again by himself and cannot believe it completely. It's not that he suspects Dr. Chen is lying to him. After all, as the chief director of one of the four major research institutes of the Ministry of National Defense, there is no reason and no need for him to lie to him about such things.

A powerful enterprise, Jia Weiting...

For now, let Lou Qinglan help him investigate the latter in detail.

Having made up his mind, Ji Jingqiu turned his attention back to cultivation.

This time the harvest was enormous. Bai Yujing, no, it should be said that Hela's body was indeed a treasure. Just two hours of stimulation made his electrocardiogram take a qualitative leap.

It’s a pity that this guy is too stingy, otherwise the Bodhi tree would have 49 leaves by now.

Ji Jingqiu called Jiang Minghuan and described what he saw today.

After hearing that Hela was still sleeping, Jiang Minghuan expressed his gratitude and gave a new reward option. Ji Jingqiu pondered for a moment and chose the information about the gods.

Looking within the Federation, the Wilderness Cult is the force that has explored the ocean of the mind most deeply. The intranet information of the Administration is not as detailed as theirs, and Ji Jingqiu is not qualified to access the core information of the Administration for the time being.

He reserved the right to exchange for the time being and was not in a hurry to exchange.

Finally, Jiang Minghuan thanked him again and said that if he was interested in the adventure in the ocean of the mind, he could go there in half a month.

The adventure will be open again in half a month.

Ji Jingqiu was not surprised by this.

He later found out that an adventure is a bit like a game copy. There is no guarantee of success, and after failure, it will be forgotten for a while.

The people from the Wilderness Cult had obviously challenged it before and failed, so they were so generous and gave it to him as a gift.

It's hard to say, it might be a test by the Wilderness Cult.

……

"It has been confirmed. Ji Jingqiu has indeed received an invitation from the Crimson Laboratory and left Tianshi City this morning."

In a hotel located in the corner of Tianshi City, six or seven figures were seated. Some of them were young, about the same age as Ji Jingqiu, while others were in their thirties or forties. There was no sign of martial arts on their bodies, and they seemed to be just ordinary people.

"Why not try to sneak into Baiyujing directly?"

"Haha, you are worthy of being the crazy woman of the Harvest Cult. I support you in going for it."

"Don't argue." Someone frowned, extinguishing the rising tension, and turned to explain for the person who had spoken earlier, "There is a Grand Master in Baiyujing. Even if the main forces of the sect are gathered together, it will be difficult to attack."

“According to our previous discussion, regardless of whether Ji Jingqiu had been targeted by Hela before, he must have been secretly marked by Hela after his trip to Baiyujing. Next, we only need to set up a ritual to forcibly enhance his ‘inspiration’ and increase the probability of him ‘seeing’ Hela.”

"How long does this process take?"

"If you can bring Ji Jingqiu here directly and ensure that he is not exposed, then one ritual will be enough. Otherwise, we have to work slowly, which will take at least half a month."

"We have to finish it before the end of July, so we can wait for half a month."

"What if Ji Jingqiu fails?"

“No problem. We have other backup measures. We just need to find a container that can serve as a beacon for Him before Hela takes over the Kingdom of God next time.”

……

……

After returning to Tianshi City, Ji Jingqiu had a private chat with Lou Qinglan and then devoted himself to cultivation.

Forge a superior body, transform the Qi of the primordial energy, carve the divine form of mountains and rivers, comprehend the secret of unity, sharpen the knife...

His schedule is packed.

In this process of immersing oneself wholeheartedly in cultivation.

Seven days flew by.

A week later,

Ji Jingqiu received an invitation to a party.

The last character is: Mu Juncheng.

Good night...
