The mobilization of these young people truly forced the once-silent powers behind them to confront the issues of the West head-on.

And yet, as they faced annoyance and headaches, those old folks also felt a complex pride for their younger generations.

In this world, there will always be people standing, squatting, and lying flat.

And the young always have "hard heads" and "disobedience," preferring to stand.

Looking at these spirited young people, it was as if they themselves had grown "young" again.

A small city covered in yellow sand.

The urban ecosystem here has been destroyed; not all planets are habitable, unless transformed by Heavenly People or by establishing urban circle.

In the event of a destroyed urban ecosystem, cities quickly become uninhabitable, and ordinary people can't survive.

Yin Wushuang is busy helping rebuild and perfect the ecosystem.

"Jing Qiu, you defeated the Heavenly Human Martial Artist from the Sima Family in Hanyang?"

The blowing sand on the face, Yin Wushuang's expression is stunned, then breaks into a brilliant smile.

That guy, he's really always one step ahead!

These days.

Like Ji Jingqiu, Yin Wushuang treks on foot, saves people, kills enemies, and has traveled much.

He originally intended to temper his sword heart in the mortal realms as a forge, but in the end, he found that what he tempered the most was...

His own Divine nature.

This reminded him of Leng Wuyan, ranked eighth on the Ten Thousand Ancient Stele, seemingly cultivating the sword, but actually cultivating his Divine Self.

Could it be that after the Ancestor Master, no one has entered Grandmaster, let alone going further, because they took the wrong path?

He reflects in the mortal world while attempting to move forward.

Not just him.

There's also Yue Yourong who attempted Heaven Heart, yet eventually glimpsed the hearts of All Spirits;

Li Chengfeng, who experienced the six aspects for the first time.

Glimpsing the vast beauty of life and its relentless tenacity under the collapse of calamities and destruction, the Thunder Tree finally understood how its ancestors evolved a vibrant order of All Spirits life in the otherwise disorderly and destructive Thunder Dao.

...

They all embark on the path of "seeing the sentient beings of the world and finally seeing their true selves," as their predecessors from ten thousand years ago termed it, through this journey to the West.

And for them, this journey is just the beginning.

...

With the news that Ji Jingqiu has entered Heart Image and suppressed Sima Long continuously spreading, brewing.

Countless important figures could not help but cast more attention to the West.

Because it was not merely "youthful frolicking" any longer.

It was a "mighty one" capable of overturning a martial arts veins, rampantly "calling out" in the West!

"Just entered Heart Image, and already overpowering a Heavenly Person... Truly the foremost prodigy of our Federation in ten thousand years!"

"Seeing this youth, it's as if I see the Seven Marshals of old."

"How exhilarating! What a thrill!"

"Thrilling? Just worried it's a fleeting pleasure..."

"Hmph, that old coward, shivering in fear, don't expect the young to be like you!"

"Indeed, Heavenly People also come in levels, each step a ladder; just afraid that some would flip the table directly."

"Where is Ji Jingqiu now, still in the West, is he perhaps preparing to fight across the West?!"

"No, there's news that he did not continue to stay in the West, but has already passed through the Spirit Ocean, detouring southward."

"Southward? To the southern Star Domain of the Federation? Is this seizing a favorable opportunity? Poor Sima Family..."

"Could he be going to the Yang Family for help? It's possible! The legacy left by Marshal Yang is called 'Unyielding Heroic Sword', and those who follow this legacy all must forge an 'Unyielding Hero Heart'; indeed, among the Six Great Families, they are the most likely to lend a hand."

"Why not the Mu Family? The Mu Family was once of the World Venerable Lineage!"

"World Venerable Lineage... Heh, do you know how many in the Mu Family's current generation are of Direct Lineage?"

"Alas, of the Six Great Families, the Mu Family bears the deepest curse; if not for the three Great Grandmasters of the Mu Family not breaking their succession, the Mu Family... would have been unrecognizable long ago."

...

Ji Jingqiu is leisurely traversing the Spirit Ocean, his body's acupoints constantly vibrating, as if there was someone chanting scriptures within or as the sound of great thunder, shaking, filtering, removing impurities from the acupoints, undergoing some kind of Transformation.

Gradually, each acupoint revealed a glaze color, transforming towards a golden color that contained the meaning of immortality.

[Bodhi Golden Body]

This Golden Body Method is not just a physical body tempering technique, but also a practice of Inner Heaven and Earth.

He originally thought to forge it before the Seven Breakthroughs, but this journey to the West disrupted the plan, prompting him to start the final step after achieving Body Unification.

In the end, he became clear inside and out, his body's acupoints permeated with the undying intent of the Golden Body; the Golden Body was accomplished.

Additionally, his Innate Formless Dao Body was also slowly transforming, absorbing the invisible Dharma forces of heaven and earth.

Among the Four Steps of Heart Image, one is to forge the Innate Taoist Body, only with a physique close to heaven can one touch the Heavenly Human Boundary.

With Ji Jingqiu's foundation laid in the True Seed Realm and his current fearsome physique, this step required no particular effort, silently completing.

Equivalent to an automatic upgrade to the ultimate version of Innate Taoist Body.

For the Four Steps of Heart Image, ironically, there's only one step for him.

Heart and Body Unity.

Even Heart Unification, for him who has already obtained Heart Proving Fetal Breath, is merely a matter of time, with no real difficulty.

The only challenge lies in Heart and Body Unity.

This step will be a high mountain on his path of Heart Image.

To put it in Lady La's terms, because he's too strong, whether in body or spirit, he's top-notch; to achieve complete Heart and Body Unity, ordinary methods certainly won't suffice, and it requires "stimulus" from the outside world.
