Chapter 587: Chapter 587
In front of Marshal He’s confidante, Ji Jingqiu appeared exceptionally well-behaved, allowing Aunt Mu to stroke her head.
[Jing Qiu, are you ready to go back?]
Ji Jingqiu nodded and said, "With the help of the Ancient Road, I have formed the embryonic shape of the Holy Embryo. I need to return to the Great Universe as soon as possible."
[I feel it, your Power of the Spirit is spreading all the time...]
After pondering for a moment, Mu Qing said:
[With your current strength and potential, it may not be long before you can confront the Heart Image Warriors and touch the barriers of the Heavenly Person. Therefore, there are some things I should instruct you on now.]
[According to Ji Tianxing’s calculations back then, this era will be the final leap for the entire Great Universe and all derivative cosmic planes, which is—sublimation.]
[Like us, the universe is also trying to sublimate and enter the next level.]
Hearing this, Ji Jingqiu’s expression turned serious. Had Marshal Ji made such prophecies and calculations before?
The cosmic planes are also trying to advance further?
[The laws of the Great Universe are loosening, which in a sense, can be understood that it needs more strong individuals to help resist the invasion of external foes, everything has its traces...]
[This era is destined to be perilous and dazzling, filled with crises and opportunities. The so-called ’Son of Heavenly Destiny’ in this novel will truly manifest, and the enemies you encounter in the future will be even more formidable than the ones He encountered in his time.]
Ji Jingqiu’s eyes were profound. The Son of Heavenly Destiny? He felt he might have already refused a spot.
If the Son of Heavenly Destiny refers to the inheritors of the Heavenly Will, the future master of a realm, it would indeed be an unprecedentedly strong adversary, such a person would definitely have full talent and intelligence, and with the support of the Heavenly Destiny, could easily crush peers.
Among these, the most terrifying is not the Heavenly Will crafted by the Nine Palaces, but some genuinely complete cosmic planes!
[He and others always said that they were born ten thousand years too early and missed the most exciting era; they hoped that you would inherit his will.]
Ji Jingqiu nodded and said, "Aunt Mu, rest assured."
Although it was only a simple four words, it carried a deep confidence within its simplicity.
Mu Qing was very pleased; she felt a similar "temperament" from Ji Jingqiu that she had seen in He in the past.
That is the same invincible spirit, who else but me, firmly believing no one can compete with oneself!
Ji Jingqiu had already etched this belief of being invincible into his bones through countless battles.
But she still had some hidden worries and softly instructed him some past lessons before Ji Jingqiu departed:
[Once you step through this door, you will officially enter the middle tier of the Federation, and are qualified to compete for some important positions. Others will not just concede because you are an unparalleled genius, the competition is also more than what is seen on the surface.]
[Both He and Ji Tianxing have said that the struggle for power is the dirtiest, with bloodshed and broken bones...]
[You will meet some people who will behave in ways that are unimaginable, foolish, or even utterly shameless in your eyes; do not be surprised, do not let emotions sway you, ignore these calmly.]
[Everything in this world is but the result of interests, even the actions and speeches that appear foolish have their own underlying reasons...]
Ji Jingqiu nodded solemnly.
He understood what Aunt Mu and previously Master Gu wanted to remind him.
On this note, Ji Jingqiu indeed saw things more clearly.
Some matters are indeed not as straightforward as Martial Arts, winning might not mean victory, and losing might not truly mean defeat.
Fortunately, he didn’t plan to get involved.
If possible, Ji Jingqiu did not intend to touch those so-called politics; he would not, like the Seven Marshals of the past, try to become the spiritual leader of the Federation, or...
This is not the path he was prepared to follow.
What he wanted to do was to compete for some important resources, then step by step ascend on the path beneath his feet.
Even if he has thousands of flaws, once he becomes a Heavenly Person, a Grandmaster—
A Great Scholar will argue Scriptures for him.
Before returning to the Great Universe, Ji Jingqiu temporarily entrusted the three Heavenly Medicines he acquired from the Ancient Road to the Canglang Jin family to take care of, planting them near Aunt Mu.
These three Heavenly Medicines, just out of the Ancient Road, seemed a bit sickly and needed some time to recuperate and adapt to the external rules of Heaven and Earth.
He originally intended to plant them in his personal small world "Floating Temple," but unfortunately, that place’s rules are severely broken and cannot accommodate beings like Heavenly Medicines.
He planned to first visit East Three Bright Star, create his own "dojo," and then transplant them.
Ji Jingqiu also took out soil from Wuwang Mountain, asking if it would be of use to Aunt Mu.
He didn’t keep this substance even in the Nine Palaces; he planned to bring it back to the Great Universe to cultivate the World Tree seeds he obtained from the Cangqing Lineage.
Only regretting that he didn’t have a personal world like the Floating Temple back then; otherwise, he would have dug three chi deep to let future generations see what was.
Even if he didn’t know the importance of this soil beforehand, it didn’t stop him from "coming to see" and "digging it out first."
Mu Qing was initially somewhat amused, thinking Jing Qiu was just too "adorable."
But when she carefully sensed the soil provided by Ji Jingqiu, she was suddenly shocked by this unprecedented kind of soil.
After her Spirit God contacted the soil Ji Jingqiu presented, Mu Qing felt a "desire" coming from deep within the Divine!
And after hearing the origin of this soil, Mu Qing was enlightened.
[You’ve already been to that place? Did you see anything?] Mu Qing asked curiously.
That was a chance that even He regretted missing after achieving success in Martial Arts.
Ji Jingqiu shared his experiences and encounters.
