Chapter 193: Chapter 53: Bountiful HarvestThe Heavenly Demon Law Domain slowly shattered, like ice shells under the sun continuously melting and collapsing. The souls that had been sacrificed and then controlled by the Necrocontroller Demon were thereby liberated and dissipated. They had long since died, and now only resentment and hatred remained, these dark mists swept away by the wind, dissipating into the vast snowy dust. The Necrocontroller Demon, sliced in half, dissolved in midair, large scales falling and turning into a strange scale-skin fluttering in the wind, only a deep purple core, like a heart, intact. An Jing stepped forward and took the Demon Pivot from the dead Necrocontroller Demon’s remains in his hand. Just like before, countless mournful voices rose in his ears, pleading, wailing. Anyone with compassion would be moved, hesitating in their heart. But An Jing remained unmoved, because blood and iron do not heed cries, because fate has no mercy. All was as it should be. His hand gradually tightened, the Crimson Fiend and the Platinum Fiend grinding everything to dust, continuous cracking sounds like breaking bones, and finally... With a snap, the Demon Pivot completely shattered. The Heavenly Profound True Talisman emerged, once again, it siphoned all the Mysterious Primordial Qi converted from the world after the Heavenly Demons were eradicated, like a giant furnace refining all the raw and simple Wholesome Breath into the purest Light Essence. The Xuanyuan Pure Light spun and danced in An Jing’s hand. In this battle, An Jing had played all his cards, managing to crush the defenses of Chongyi Building and kill Lu Jin and the Necrocontroller Demon with the fastest speed and least losses. But likewise, he gained enormously—the battle with Lu Jin and the Necrocontroller Demon had further enhanced An Jing’s Martial Arts, and he had gained a deeper understanding of the practical combat techniques of the Taibai Luminous Godly Ban and the Imperial Heaven and Houtu Method. Cultivation is just like this. Cultivation is nurturing the body, temperament, fate, and techniques, keeping one’s body muscular and healthy, robust in physicality, complete in spirit, skilled in various methods, having solutions to problems encountered. And refining is refining oneself, the heart, the Dao, and the spirit, tempering the will while honing the body, enhancing courage and decisiveness as if forging weapons, nurturing one’s combat thinking, finding the correct method to use laws and techniques during life-and-death fights, preparing to integrate laws and techniques into one, and rehearsing the process of cultivating one’s ’Dao’ in advance. As the saying goes, to learn without thinking is futile, to think without learning is perilous, cultivation and refinement are just like this, nurturing and fighting too—were An Jing to do it all over again, Lu Jin wouldn’t even think of escaping back to his dark chamber, he would be slain by the sword within the first three exchanges. "When the Heavenly Demon descends, this world must have also brought forth countless heroes to resist the Demon Calamity," he said. Gazing at the Xuanyuan Pure Light in his hand, An Jing swallowed it without hesitation. For An Jing to achieve such feats in his cultivation journey is entirely because he fought intensely along the way, slaying several demons, allowing him to break through bottlenecks at crucial times. Not to mention only the cultivation of Divine Skills, if it were normal cultivation, practicing for several years wouldn’t be surprising, how could An Jing achieve a breakthrough to Minor Achievement in an instant? The Embracing the Void Demon Calamity back then must have been incredibly terrifying, with not only Immortal Gods returning from Immortal Heaven to descend to the world but certainly also a large number of heroes emerging, Demons Devourers achieving the Dao, rapidly growing with the help of the heavenly and earthly Dao principles, resisting the invaders. But even so, it was a tragic victory... the might of the Heavenly Demon is thus apparent. For now, An Jing did not consider the origin of the Heavenly Demon. Having swallowed the Xuanyuan Pure Light, he decided to use it all to enhance his cultivation and physique. His Divine Skills and Fate Pattern were already strong, and because the Necrocontroller Demon was premature, it wasn’t powerful, and the Mysterious Primordial Qi it produced couldn’t bring about any change in these two aspects. Yet, looking at it from another angle, his cultivation level was still somewhat weak due to his age, though he had broken through to Inner Breath like Tide, the lakes and seas within his body were still shallow and he constantly needed to refine and enhance them before he could perfectly give birth to Divine Abnormalities. Fortunately, An Jing had already broken through this stage’s bottleneck, and as long as he could consume Ferocious Beast Meat and elixirs day and night, he would soon be able to break through to Inner Strength. But however powerful Ferocious Beast Meat and elixirs might be, how could they compare to the purity of Xuanyuan Pure Light? "Devouring demons to return to the true self, this is a ’Principle of the Dao’ written into the universe by the Dao Sect." Subdue Evil felt quite emotional, "Legend has it, when the Great Immortal Embracing the Void, with supreme mana, brought the twelve buildings and five cities to the Hong Hong Great Wilderness, this world was still a murky and vast haze, devoid of life and Dao’s principles—a state of ’being within non-being and non-being within being’." "The Great Immortal Embracing the Void established the Dao Sect here, performed myriad Dao’s principles, settled the laws of heaven and earth; his laws spread across the five Immortal Heavens, his rationale interwove the Seven Seas and Nine Continents." "And the leaders of the Dao Sect in later generations, each could write their own new principles into the universe." "Eh?" An Jing curiously said, "Nine Continents? Weren’t we Embracing the Void known for the land of five colors, five directions, and ten continents?" Subdue Evil explained, "Among the ten continents, the Zhongheng Dao Continent is the central hub of the Great Embracing the Void Realm, the ancestral court of the Dao Sect, formed by the interweaving of all laws. Though one of the ten continents, it actually serves as the wedge of the Great Dao for all beings of the nine continents to ascend to the Immortal Heaven, the passage to the Heavenly Pillar." "Even though the Dao Sect scattered in later ages, the Zhongheng Dao Continent still remains the center of this realm." ——Judging from the fact that the Tianyuan Realm also has such principles, it is likely that these are essential principles for the ’Dao Sect Dao Courtyard,’ an inter-realm organization that pioneers new realms ... Heavenly Demons are probably a calamity present in multiple worlds. Thinking thus, An Jing absorbed the Xuanyuan Pure Light as quickly as he could. At the same time, he took a deep breath, activated the Taibai Fiend Qi, resonated with the Sword Spirit, and sensed the ’remnants’ in the wreckage of the Chongyi Building. Chongyi Building, as the foundation of the Heavenly Demon Law Domain, turned into dust under the force unleashed as the Law Domain collapsed and the Heavenly Demon descended, turning much of its wealth into nothing—wealth that An Jing considered mundane. The truly valuable Treasure Medicines, treasure materials, and various artifacts and Cultivation Techniques protected by Secret Techniques boxes were all preserved, saving An Jing the time to sift and search. In the Sword Spirit’s field of vision, dots emitting Spiritual Light sparkled amidst the ruins and debris. An Jing leaped and quickly collected them all. The most important findings were the two Fist Techniques and one Scripture preserved inside the secret boxes! "’Great Self True Form Fist’, ’Five Beasts Worshiping God Fist with My Annotations’, and ... ’Emperor You Great Abyss God Venerable’s Bind Spirit Control Divine Mantra Wonderful Scripture’?" Without time for a thorough examination, An Jing only briefly looked at the names of these Fist Techniques and Scriptures and skimmed through their content, yet he was still shocked. The Great Self True Form Fist needs no further mention, it was exactly the Martial Arts Fist Technique that Lu Jin relied on to break through the Martial Meridian, far surpassing the inheritance of Martial Scripture from An Jing’s family. An Jing’s ancestor was indeed a Martial Meridian, but in reality, it was only due to a fortuitous chance of consuming a Spiritual Object that he broke through, and both Qi Nourishing Effort and the Slaughter Chapter were actually within the Inner Strength realm; even though his ancestor later amended many details with a superior perspective, it was still crude in the Martial Meridian realm. In a nine-rank categorization, it was just mid-lower level. Although An Jing had read many stories in the Martial Scripture, he hadn’t fully accepted the inheritance, especially since he was too young at that time. No matter how much Sir An An Qianshan thought well of his child, it was not possible to bestow the family legacy to An Jing when he was only eight or nine years old, as that would most likely harm An Jing. The Great Self True Form Fist was different, it should be a Fist Technique paired with a higher level of cultivation method, its subtleties even finding some correspondence in the Imperial Heaven Method, in the nine-rank categorization, it could be considered mid-upper level. Of course, this only proved that the Imperial Heaven Method was stronger, especially compared with the Houtu Skills, it could likely be extraordinary, but it still illustrates the value of the Great Self True Form Fist.
