CHAPTER 645: CHAPTER 250 DIVINE SKILLS: THE BEGINNING OF ONE ELEMENT, ALL PHENOMENA BIRTH_4

The Heart Image Realm has four levels of stairs, and those who ascend all four levels can see the boundary between Heavenly Humans.

Spiritual Body Unification, Heart and Body Unity, Innate Body, the rudimentary form of the dojo.

Aside from "Spiritual Body Unification" and "Heart and Body Unity" which have a sequential order,

the other two staircases do not have a specific order and can even be pursued simultaneously.

What Heart Image pursues is the high integration of heart and body, and after completing Heart and Body Unity, one can reverse deduce the Fetal Breathing Realm of Unity of Heaven and Man.

Most Heart Image Warriors start from scratch, gradually mastering the degree of Unity of Heaven and Man.

Only someone like Ji Jingqiu, who exceeds common sense, directly obtained Spiritual Fetal Breath in the Chains Realm, and what confines his degree of Unity of Heaven and Man now is only his physical body.

A top-notch Heart Image like Zhang Haixin has already completed the four levels, only lacking the degree of Unity of Heaven and Man to break through the final Heavenly Human boundary.

Such level of warriors are powerful in every aspect, and Ji Jingqiu is not yet capable of contending with them.

Only when he activates the Heaven and Earth Dojo can he attempt to match.

Just by measuring the power of their strikes, starting from the Chains Realm, there are two crucial factors.

One is physical strength, and the other is the Power of Heaven and Earth.

Physical strength not only directly determines the power of the strike but also the capacity to bear the Power of Heaven and Earth.

The Unity of Heavenly Person degree of Heart Image Warriors stops at 70%, which is also related to physical strength.

With a weak body, how can one link with planets and command the entire Heaven and Earth with the vastness of the spirit?

With 10% completion of Heavenly Person’s Dharma Body, the strength of Life Force surges to another level, enabling control over the vast Planet Will.

This is also where Ji Jingqiu’s current weaknesses and strengths lie.

He can face Heart Image head-on, despite being far inferior in physical strength and Life Force, precisely by relying on the enhancement of the Power of Heaven and Earth.

But if he encounters a Heart Image Warrior who matches his degree of Unity of Heaven and Man, his own weaknesses will be exposed.

For him, the tenfold increase of Body Unification will become the most crucial transformation.

At this moment in testing Divine Skills, Zhang Haixin naturally cannot overpower by force but attempts to break Divine Skills with Divine Skills.

Being seventeenth on the Hidden Dragon List, his inheritance of Divine Skills is top-notch.

Zhang Haixin pushes forward a palm strike, creating a blue tide in the Void, the intent of his palm is vast and embraces the sky.

Ji Jingqiu, still unmoving, counters with [Mirror Flowers and Water Moon].

Boom—

Water meets the sky, fierce winds howl, resonating in all directions, Zhang Haixin’s eyes focus sharply, sensing a palm strike akin to his own path approaching from afar.

He does not dodge but receives it directly, savoring the Dharma within, muttering, "It’s sixty or seventy percent similar..."

Ji Jingqiu looks towards the crumbling Water Moon Heaven and Earth from the trial, with too much strain, it begins to disintegrate, and unknown stars have appeared in the sky.

Seeing this, everyone breathes a sigh of relief.

Having a limit is good!

If it were endless... everyone shivers at the thought.

"Suddenly feels a bit like the Ji Family’s [Seamless Heavenly Robe]..."

"Ji, what is this Divine Skill called?"

Ji Jingqiu, feeling elated, smiles showing his teeth: "Let’s call it [The Beginning of One Element]."

"The Beginning of One Element..."

"Primordial? One Element Primordial Rebirth, All Phenomena Birth?" a warrior whispers, guessing the true intention behind Ji Jingqiu naming this skill.

Ke Tianjin finally steps out, looking at the stele split in half on the ground, his eyes full of distress, ultimately he can only sigh lightly and tell himself, this is fate...

At this point, the banquet is near its end.

And Ji Jingqiu, with no attachment, only wishes to return and further study this Divine Skill.

Currently, this Divine Skill is still in its early stages and needs further refinement.

After the banquet ends.

Ji Jingqiu, invited by Ke Pingluan, stays with the Ke family for a few days.

During this period, after stabilizing [The Beginning of One Element], he discussed the Void and the Primordial with Ke Pingluan, both gaining insights.

He also encouraged Ke Pingluan to inquire about the recent situations of the other families.

In the end, it was found that the Ji Family is currently self-secluded, and the Mu Family is in a similar situation; the internal turmoil in both families is the most severe, having reached a white-hot stage.

Moreover, among the remaining three families, the Yang Family and the Qin Family are calmer, with some disputes not surfacing.

As for the final Li Family, they are the most inscrutable as they are the calmest with no "waves" stirred up.

"Now that the Grandmaster is not present, and the Federation needs ’Unity’ to oppose external enemies, but who is qualified to become the center of all parties and lead the overall situation?"

"People have ambitions, like some believe that the descendants of our Six Great Families should join hands to build a supreme dynasty, continuing the legacy without tarnishing the ancestors’ reputation."

The old Heavenly Person Ke Tianjin shook his head and sighed to Ji Jingqiu:

"Everyone wants this position, but no one can dominate the others."

At last, he meaningfully said to Ji Jingqiu:

"Those Great Grandmasters, encouraging you to walk this path of Sword Picking Hundred Veins, may indeed harbor intentions for you to become the ’center’."

"Unfortunately, they no longer have time, and you are exactly at a stage where you need time the most."

Upon saying this, the old Heavenly Person sighed and said desolately:

"Although you stand higher than the Seven Marshals in the Divine Travel Realm, after Divine Travel there are the Chains, Heart Image, and Heavenly Person Realms, and moreover, it is a struggle for the ’great righteousness’ of the Federation’s future. The Six Great Families, Federation’s Hundred Veins, numerous noble families, and the Business Alliance, how could they easily submit to you?"

"A prodigy that countless forces have invested in, and a powerhouse that countless forces follow, are completely different levels."

"If only it could be delayed a bit, even just a few years, to let you grow, it would be much better..."

The old Heavenly Person shook his head and left with his hands behind his back.

Ji Jingqiu learned from Ke Pingluan that, as one of the highest-ranking Heavenly Persons of the Ke family, the line of Ke Tianjin held significant influence a hundred years ago.

However, their line had also been pushing collective opinions and tried to pull together the line of Ji Linyuan for a hundred years.

Since that time, their line’s influence was substantially reduced, and now they are competing with another line of the Ke family that advocates "joining the world" for the control of the family.

"Joining the world?"

"It means uniting with the other families to unify the Federation," Ke Pingluan said softly, "The Western part is still in constant war, exactly because it has become an ’arena’ for some forces."

Ji Jingqiu, through the channels of the Ke family, discovered that the military conflicts in the western part of the Federation were escalating.

This made him somewhat worried about Daoge and Bage, who were far in the west.

That night, he called Daoge and Bage, and ultimately Zhang Chongba picked up the phone.

"Hello, hello, hello? Little brother! You’ve made good progress! Brother here in this lousy place in the West, I hear about your success every now and then!"

Zhang Chongba with a face full of dust, yet there was a pleased expression as if proud of his child’s accomplishments.

Seeing that Bage was still full of life, Ji Jingqiu felt somewhat relieved. It had been a while since he saw Bage since parting at East Three Bright Star.

"We’ve been doing alright recently, fortunately backed by the Religious Administration."

Zhang Chongba grinned, suddenly furrowed his brows, thought for a moment, and hesitantly said,

"Brother, I need to ask you something. Do you have a way to dispatch a transport ship to West 3 Qing Star? To pick up some people?"

Ji Jingqiu was confused, but Zhang Chongba did not wish to elaborate.

At last, Ji Jingqiu nodded, promising to try, and Zhang Chongba gave a thumbs up: "Brother, with your connections, you can absolutely do it!"

Ji Jingqiu was speechless and turned to look for Ke Pingluan. After some thought, Ke Pingluan turned and found a middle-aged man from the Ke family, named Ke Qingliu.

"West 3 Qing Star?" Ke Qingliu pondered, "Alright, we will dispatch a transport ship there. Ji... Just give me the contact information of the person there."

He originally wanted to call Ji a nephew, but seeing the Little Ancestor beside him, he forcibly held it back.

Shortly after, Ji Jingqiu received Zhang Chongba’s thanks.

Before Ji Jingqiu could delve further into the western conflicts,

One day,

Ji Jingqiu received a message.

— The Four Directions God, summoning him to the Divine Lord Temple.

He pondered, was this preparing the contract between him and Hel?
