Becoming a god starts from planting a Bodhi tree.

Chapter 285 Grandmaster Characteristics, Become Your Own Destiny
With the farewell of the Dachi Tiangong, Ji Jingqiu came to the old place of Canglang Jin family.

This place has been transformed into a stronghold by the Federation and the Dachi Tiangong.

Ji Jingqiu was the first to greet Aunt Mu. Thinking of the stone tablet in the courtyard he had seen before, he couldn't help but feel curious. Did Coach He love only one person in the past, or did he have many beauties?

He barely suppressed the gossipy spirit in his heart and chatted with Aunt Mu about what had happened in recent years.

In fact, Mu Qing had already heard about his affairs from other people. She was relieved and surprised. She didn't expect Ji Jingqiu's promotion speed to be so fast. And unlike Ah He in the past, he did not encounter many "changes in people's hearts" in succession.

But after hearing about Ji Jingqiu's recent experience, Mu Qing fell silent. After a moment, he said:

"Ji Tianxing does this kind of thing often. Ah He broke up with him several times back then. I thought you would encounter this kind of setup at the hands of others, but I didn't expect that it would be Ji Tianxing who set it up himself."

Break up several times...

Ji Jingqiu was a little dazed. Can these two words be put together?
"Back then, they..." Mu Qing thought about it, but ultimately couldn't find a more accurate word to describe the relationship between Ji Tianxing and Ahe.

"Ah He was able to dominate the southern part of the Nine Continents, forcing the forces of other continents to unite to resist his invasion. Ji Tianxing played a great role in this."

"This guy has a very smart mind. Whether it's martial arts, political schemes, or war... he's omnipotent."

Mu Qing gave some examples and briefly elaborated on the past events.

Ji Jingqiu noticed that Aunt Mu's tone was more of fear than admiration.

"What did Commander He do in the face of Commander Ji's plan?" Ji Jingqiu couldn't help but ask.

"Hit him." Mu Qing said calmly.

Ji Jingqiu nodded seriously and learned lessons from his predecessors.

"You have already cultivated those few heavenly medicines. Do you want to plant them on the East 3 Brilliant Star?"

Mu Qing asked.

Ji Jingqiu nodded, it was just right to bring it back to the universe this time.

After saying goodbye to Aunt Mu, Ji Jingqiu picked up a "peach tree" and put two "rare flowers" in his pocket, preparing to leave.

Before leaving.

Ji Jingqiu thought about it and asked Aunt Mu: "Aunt Mu, do you know who in the Three Thousand Jambuvipas took action when He Shuai broke through?"

"I'm not sure about this. Maybe Gu Tatian knows something. He has been investigating the main reason why Ah He failed to break through in the past ten thousand years."

Ji Jingqiu nodded, said goodbye again, and returned to the universe.

After coming out of the passage of East 3 Huangxing, the Taoist Bai Lu who was guarding the gate was slightly stunned, subconsciously looked in a certain direction, and suddenly looked at Ji Jingqiu with strange eyes.

Two seasons of autumn?
Ji Jingqiu chuckled, greeted Uncle Bai Lu, and quickly rushed towards the main body.

After returning to the universe, his physical body began to show signs of uncontrolled self-collapse, and two "original bodies" could not coexist in one lifetime.

He returned to his original body as soon as possible, and the holy fetus in his soul returned to his body along with the divine fetus, while this physical body turned into the purest original qi and blood and merged into his original body.

In an instant, his breath rose steadily, reached a peak, and then slowly fell back.

Along with the transformation of the physical body, as the turmoil in the inner world gradually subsided, the degree of integration between the mind and the body also began to rise!

This left Ji Jingqiu speechless.

For a mind-based warrior, when he reaches the stage of unity of mind and body, the strength of his physical body has basically been determined and it is difficult to increase it significantly.

But when it comes to him, there seems to be no limit.

It's like a wooden barrel. If you fill it with water, you can achieve the unity of mind and body. But he increases the depth of the barrel while filling it with water.

He closed his eyes and began to review his gains from this time. The biggest gain was observing the way of Hela, which made him understand his true self and come into contact with the Dharma Realm again.

slowly.

Ji Jingqiu's breath disappeared from this planet.

This phenomenon immediately attracted the attention of Bai Lu and others.

"This is……"

At this moment, they could not feel Ji Jingqiu's breath or signs of life. This situation was completely different from merging with heaven and earth. It was a deeper level of disappearance.

In other words, in harmony with the Tao.

As for Ji Jingqiu, he felt that he was deeply trapped in a state of nothingness, on the boundary between existence and disappearance.

But he felt his own nature and will more clearly than ever before, that almost immortal nature!
It seems to come from the innate void and return to the innate void.

"Nothingness is natural, the original truth is one..."

All kinds of enlightenment flowed through Ji Jingqiu's heart like a gurgling stream.

Although I still have doubts and confusion, I have a sense of enlightenment in my heart, as if I have broken through the void and seen the truth.

A verse emerged in Ji Jingqiu's mind:
The true vacuum gives rise to wonderful existence.

It means that a seemingly empty situation actually contains endless creativity and possibilities.

The latter is "Tao".

Ji Jingqiu slowly opened his eyes.

As he opened his eyes, his breath filled every corner of the planet the moment it appeared, omnipresent and all-encompassing.

As long as he wanted, he could now appear in any corner of the East 3 Brilliant Star.

Because his mind has been elevated to the point where it can encompass the entire East 3 Brilliant Star.

“You already possess some of the characteristics of a Grandmaster.” Hela said.

She was not surprised by Ji Jingqiu's progress. After all, the latter had already realized the truth before, and now it was just a natural result.

at the same time.

Ji Jingqiu felt that the progress of his mind-body unity began to slowly increase at this moment.

Just like water gradually fills up the entire bucket, the water level continues to rise.

Thirty percent...forty percent...fifty percent...seventy percent...nine percent!
It was not until it reached 90% that the speed of mind and body integration slowed down, until it was infinitely close to 100%.

As the unity of mind and body increased, Ji Jingqiu could clearly feel that the soul was endlessly extending in the fusion with the body.

This extension is not outward to merge with the external world, but inward to extend towards the inner world!
He is becoming his own "providence".

Ji Jingqiu suddenly had an epiphany. This was the true meaning of the unity of mind and body. The mind became the master of the body and the will of the inner world. From then on, they were no longer distinguishable from each other.

Only by reaching this step can one forge the Dharma body of heaven and man and the characteristics of "projection of all realms".

also……

"When I realized my true nature just now, I sensed a vast ocean. Before I even set foot in it, I almost got lost."

If his perception was not mistaken, that was where the Dharma Realm was, but it was completely different from when he was in Jambudvīpa.

When he was in Jambudvīpa, he could still barely communicate with the Dharma Realm, but when he returned to the universe, even touching it was a luxury.

So, Ji Jingqiu asked Hela for advice.

Hela said without any surprise:
"You have realized the true nature and naturally touched the Dharma Realm. However, you are far from qualified to step into the Dharma Realm now. This is the realm of the Heavenly King Grandmaster."

"The Dharma Realm is where the Dao resides. If you want to comprehend the Dao, you must deepen your position between heaven and earth. You must leave your own mark here, and there must be 'witnesses' to these marks."

"To put it simply, just like your previous journey through the worlds, you lack an anchor. This anchor must rely on the observation of all living beings and spirits to deeply carve the traces you left in this world into the long river of time."

Ji Jingqiu asked: "I won the first place in the Eternal Monument in Jiuzhou before. Isn't that enough to anchor myself?"

“Are you planning to set foot in Jiuzhou and master the Dharma Realm?” Hila asked in return, “The great Dao rules of the universe are the most complete among all realms.”

Ji Jingqiu immediately understood.

No wonder Aunt Mu asked him to return to the universe and integrate the federation.

He must leave a deep enough mark in the history of the Federation to serve as an anchor for deepening into the world of law.

"A trip to the West, isn't that enough?"

Ji Jingqiu fell into deep thought. No wonder all the masters in history, regardless of their personalities, were active for a long period of time.

“I thought I could condense the [One True Dharma Realm] in the mind state.” Ji Jingqiu sighed.

In the inner world, Hela twitched the corners of her mouth.

This guy really doesn't know his place.

After adapting to his current physical body and realizing the unity of mind and body, Ji Jingqiu stood up and prepared to plant the three natural medicines.

He also had some soil of all things that he got from Wuwang Mountain.

“Plant these three heavenly medicines into your inner world.” Hela suddenly said.

Ji Jingqiu was stunned: "I haven't experienced the three disasters yet. There is no way to raise living things in the inner world."

"You already have a True Spirit Pool, which is enough to provide nutrients for these three Heavenly Medicines. The so-called Heavenly Medicines are plants that inherently carry some of the patterns of the Great Dao. Planting them in your inner world will also help expand your inner world."

"For a warrior, the inner world is the foundation of transcendence and the source of one's own great power in the future. You need to spend more time on it."

After hearing Hela's instructions, Ji Jingqiu nodded and began to sense the True Spirit Pool in the inner world.

This true spirit pool, along with the fusion of his previous physical body, was also transferred to his inner world.

Suddenly, Ji Jingqiu felt as if his eyes were dazzled. He actually saw a dragon-like and snake-like creature swimming in the pool under the mist. It was bright red and translucent, like a burning charcoal.

Ji Jingqiu subconsciously reached out to touch his wrist, but found nothing!
He was shocked. This little guy finally woke up?
The World-Devouring Snake, which had fallen into a coma on the ancient road, woke up at this moment. It had drilled into Ji Jingqiu's inner world at some point, and he didn't even sense it!
At this moment, the little fellow was swimming happily in the True Spirit Pool. When he got tired, he would soak in the pool, knocking his head against the steps by the pool, humming comfortably.

Ji Jingqiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and teased: "You were born too late. Didn't you promise to lead me to conquer the ancient road?"

At the same time, Ji Jingqiu reflected with some doubt, wondering if he had lost his vigilance just now, or if he was completely unguarded against this little guy, and it actually managed to sneak into his inner world without anyone noticing!

This kind of method can be described as unpredictable and unpredictable, worthy of being called the "Void Beast".

The little fellow hummed and groaned, and finally opened his bright eyes. He said confidently in a childish voice:

"Wait for me for another two years, and I will be able to leave my childhood and enter the next stage. By then, I will go and defeat that otaku brother first, and then I can lead you to conquer the world!"

The otaku brother...are you referring to Xuezu?
If he could do it again, Ji Jingqiu swore that he would record this scene and send it to Pingchuanxing so that the little guy could have a complete childhood.

"What level are you at now?"

Ji Jingqiu was a little curious.

For the void beast, the childhood period spans the period from the psychic phase to the mental phase.

The little fellow swung its snake tail, leaving behind a dark crack. Ji Jingqiu's face condensed slightly. The power of this tail alone was probably enough to exceed the minimum standard of a celestial body.

This guy should be at the peak of the mind phase now. With his racial advantage, he can also fight against the celestial beings.

Ji Jingqiu sighed a little. He had come this far after many twists and turns. But this little fellow was able to rival the best mind-image after a good sleep, catching up with the gods.

So, he gave the little guy a chestnut and said seriously:
"This is my inner world, stop messing around."

The little guy grumbled. It was obviously what you wanted to see...

But soon, it no longer cared about these little things and curled up comfortably in the True Spirit Pool.

It felt that the best decision its otaku brother had made was to entrust itself to Aqiu!

The sudden awakening of the World-Devouring Snake was undoubtedly a pleasant surprise for Ji Jingqiu.

When he travels through the worlds in the future, he will have a "companion".

Ji Jingqiu was a little hesitant about how to place the little guy, and asked Hela for advice.

"To the great universe, the Void Beast is like an offspring, and the most favored one at that. It was born and raised naturally, and was born in accordance with the Great Dao. You just need to keep this little fellow in your inner world on a daily basis. It will help your inner world to be tainted with a hint of the Great Dao's aura."

"And your snake is a world-devouring snake, which is best at the void. With it patrolling and combing your inner world, it can help you expand it, just like deepening and widening a river."

As Hela explained, she thought to herself that this guy's luck was truly incredible.

Being born with a young world-devouring snake to help sort out and expand the inner world is something that many Heavenly Lords and Taoists would wish for.

Now that the True Spirit Pool, the Heavenly Medicine, and a World Devouring Snake are all together, this kid will be able to go to the Nine Continents Ancient Road and devour those blessed places after he enters the Heavenly Man stage...

Hila said sincerely: "Ji Jingqiu, your path to becoming a celestial being will be very comfortable."

Ji Jingqiu comforted the little guy and told him not to soak in the hot spring every day. He told him to walk around in this small world whenever he had time, and to run a few times in the morning, noon and evening.

The little guy agreed reluctantly.

It is still a child. Theoretically, the childhood of the Void Beast is just about eating, drinking and sleeping!

But since it was Qiu's plea, there was nothing we could do.

Ji Jingqiu was very pleased that his World-Devouring Snake could do some work besides eating and sleeping.

Afterwards, Ji Jingqiu planted the three natural medicines into the inner world, right next to the True Spirit Pond, and watered them with the pond water.

Under Hela's guidance, Ji Jingqiu also sprinkled the soil of all things on the roots of the heavenly medicine.

"I have a world tree seed that I got from the Cangqing lineage. Do you want to plant it in the inner world as well?" Ji Jingqiu suddenly asked.

"The World Tree Seed of the Cangqing lineage?"

Hela was silent for a while. Where on earth did this guy get so many good things?
Ji Jingqiu said that these were all gifts from his predecessors along the way.

“World Tree, you should stay in the East 3 Brilliant Star. If this thing is planted in the inner world… I am not sure what will happen.” Hela said.

Ji Jingqiu could only give up with regret.

He glanced at the nearest terminal and sent a message to Ji Anquan, inviting him to come to Dongsanhuang Star as soon as possible.

Waiting.

Ji Jingqiu began to ponder.

The forces from all realms are invading, and the followers of the Four Demons are watching secretly...

All this indicates that the Federation will face chaos and turmoil.

Before leaving, Mu Shuai specifically reminded him not to interfere with the subsequent turmoil in the Four Guardian Stars, and only needed to guard the East 3 Huang Star.

only……

Ji Jingqiu's mind toured the world and found a white-haired "young man" who was watching two old men playing chess on the street. He had fluttering sleeves and was wearing very ancient clothes.

The “young man” couldn’t help but give some pointers to the two bad chess players from time to time, which earned him a glare from an old man, “A true gentleman watches a game of chess without saying a word!”

The "young man" turned around angrily, but glanced in Ji Jingqiu's direction with a kind smile.

Ji Jingqiu thought to himself that with Uncle Lu Tong in charge of the East 3 Huang Star, the defense of this planet would be as impenetrable as an iron barrel unless the rules of the universe were in chaos and turmoil.

perhaps……

Can he take this opportunity to catch some fish?

Find out which people and forces are secretly plotting against Dong 3 Huangxing, and then catch them all in one fell swoop.

If this is true, then next, we can temporarily transfer some strong men from the Nine Palaces to Dongsanhuang Star to take charge, and focus on luring those who are willing to take the bait.

At this moment, this kind of quota is enough to make some people in Jiugong fight for it.

Also coming is the upcoming Nine Palaces Heart-Eye Warrior.

Once this group of people break through to the heavens and humans in the universe, they can leave the protection of the magic circle and freely roam the universe with combat power.

As for the Federation in the current situation, the more celestial beings there are, the better.

The environment of the universe is different from that of Jiuzhou. The virtual space between regions is too large, which greatly lengthens the support line. The same territory requires more celestial beings to guard it.

However, these guys needed him to take action in advance to deter and suppress them, and eliminate some of their disloyalty, so as to avoid any trouble later.

Having made up his mind, Ji Jingqiu prepared to include this matter in the plan and leave it all to Ji Anquan to deduce and implement.

Ji Jingqiu suddenly thought of it.

In a sense, Ji Anquan is quite useful?
Well, don’t hit people on the head later, so as to avoid hurting them.

The thought came to an end.

Ji Jingqiu began his retreat before the Baimai Conference.

He wants to complete the final step of achieving the unity of mind and body before the Hundred Meridians Conference is held.

……

These two months.

A lot of things, big and small, happened in the federation.

The most eye-catching thing is the dispute among the six major families.

For example, there was an internal strife in the Yang family, and Qin Qingjue of the Qin family came to the door with a Heavenly Sword, and the situation is still in a stalemate. It was heard that the Mu and Ji families began to intervene.

The Ji family first sealed themselves off quietly, and then quietly lifted the seal, seemingly without any disturbance. However, some people noticed that several of the Ji family's usually active elders were nowhere to be seen.

In the western starry sky, dozens of talented warriors from the same era as Ji Jingqiu were reported to have been attacked. The attackers were unknown, but they succeeded in killing half of them, causing shock on all sides.

The gods and immortals from all the major Taoist temples and schools joined forces for a rare occasion and turned the West upside down. The West, which had calmed down a little, once again ushered in a tense situation, which was not until the Hundred Meridians Conference approached, that the situation was slightly eased.

As the Baimai Conference held in the name of Ji Jingqiu drew closer, the density of people flowing into the spaceport of Dongsanhuang Star suddenly increased.

Many warriors who flocked here gradually discovered members from the Canglang Jin family.

After seeing those beast-eared girls with beautiful figures and wild temperaments, many warriors were indignant and launched criticism and protest against the strict confidentiality of Dongsanhuangxing.

……

……

In the big universe.

A long and narrow crack meanders through the void.

Dozens of figures walked out of the crack almost at the same time and stood in the void.

One of the young men with pale skin grinned, revealing a mouthful of red teeth, which alerted the people around him. They all looked at him coldly with obvious hostility.

Seeing that he seemed to have "incurred public anger", the young man didn't care, smiled, and left on his own.

Jian Shiqi followed behind his senior sister and felt that the man just now was extremely evil.

"That was Zhu Li from the Ghost Realm." Miao Di said coldly, "Now you should call this 'Fang Yu' senior."

Jian Shiqi was shocked. Was the one just now the son of destiny of the Ghost Realm, the one who had been possessed by another?
As Zhu Li left first, the others present also began to leave one by one without starting a fight here.

A man put on a conical hat. His face beneath the hat had hard contours and clear lines. He glanced at everyone indifferently and left alone.

Among them, a beauty wearing a golden crown picked up a silk fan, covered her red lips, slightly raised her eyebrows, looked at Miao Di in a slightly frivolous and provocative manner.

Miao Di ignored him and after confirming the current location, he led Jian Shiqi towards the direction of Yanhuang Federation.

Jian Shiqi followed closely behind, his eyes sweeping across the field with a solemn expression. These were all well-known geniuses in the Heart Realm. Even if they were not divinely forbidden, they were still the top warriors in the Heart Realm.

Think of this.

Jian Shiqi couldn't help but ask, "Big Sister, have you already stepped into the Divine Forbidden Zone?"

Since setting foot in the universe, countless strange runes have passed through Miao Di's eyes like data streams, forming an insignificant connection with some great will in the dark.

Jian Shiqi had long heard that the fundamental law of their lineage was the Great Dao Heart of Heaven, and that one could look up various old secrets engraved in time from the Heart of Heaven.

Miao Di shook his head: "I have only one foot into the forbidden area of ​​God. If I want to win, I must rely on the projection of the Taoist soldiers."

"Big sister, did you come to the universe this time to truly break through the divine prohibition?" Jian Shiqi asked tentatively.
Miaozhi walked forward and said calmly: "I seek the height of the Great Dao. For me, the divine ban is just a by-product of climbing the Great Dao, not the main goal."

Jian Shiqi was solemn. It was heard that for warriors who understood the true nature and the dharma realm below the heavens, the chances of blazing a trail in the future would be greatly increased.

Only by blazing a trail can one be qualified to touch the Eight Realms.

Those warriors who followed the path of their predecessors had smooth sailing in the seven realms, but this came at the cost of being unable to break through to the eighth realm in their lifetime.

If they want to break through the eighth realm, they must first "outlive" those at the forefront of this path.

Just like one carrot and one hole, if the predecessors don't die, they will never have the possibility of moving forward.

Miaozhi's eyes were bright, and the image of the stars in the sky was reflected and flashed by.

She looked out, as if she could see through the deep starry sky, and slowly spoke to herself:
"The universe is vast and boundless. In order to avoid unnecessary conflicts, the forces of various realms will avoid each other and divide their territories in the early stage. However, some areas and coordinates will be exceptions and will become places of contention among various families, such as the 'ascension platform' left by the five pillars in the past."

"In the era when the five pillars stood on equal footing, all the heavens and myriad worlds respected the great universe. At that time, all races in all realms were honored and proud to be able to 'ascend' to the great universe. This is the origin of the 'ascension platform'."

"There are twelve similar places in total. The area occupied by the Yanhuang Federation is one of them. A planet within the territory was once the location of the Cangqing lineage's 'Ascension Platform'."

Miao Di's eyes were deep, and he said softly: "In addition, it is worth mentioning that some ancient strongmen have set their sights on my uncle-in-law, intending to take his body and be reborn."

Jian Shiqi looked solemn. Are those damned old creatures trying to seize the body of this divine forbidden person in the universe?
But how do they plan to enter the universe?
"Moreover, the Yanhuang Federation itself is a very unique force. It can almost be regarded as a true saint's dojo in the past."

Miao Di said to himself,
"They have made their names known in many forces in the Three Thousand Jambuvipas. Too many people are interested in this place, so as expected, it will be very lively here."

At this point, Miao Di shook her head slightly. She was not optimistic that the Yanhuang Federation could maintain peace in the coming "turbulent times".

The current Yanhuang Federation is like the unfilial descendants who are unable to protect the foundation and heritage left by their ancestors.

Jian Shiqi was at a loss.

Did I hear it wrong?

What is the "true holy place of the past"?
