Chapter 2295: Chapter 2295 - 1720: Birthing a Saint Through Life

This gesture by Qiu Tianhui, whether by coincidence or not, just so happened to point at the saints observing from the periphery of the image.

All the saints remained expressionless, listening as Qiu Tianhui continued to speak.

"From ancient times to the present, the mountain and sea have endured, much like rushing rivers. Within it, one’s shape is hard to change, bound to drift with the currents."

"The usual transcendence method seeks to leap out, to stand upon the river’s surface. If strong enough and high enough, one can observe the full view of the mountain and sea!"

"However, we are in the later stages of life within the mountain and sea, our opportunities exhausted, with hidden forces eyeing us covetously. Even with natural talent, it’s difficult to change this state."

Shao Zida glanced beyond the heavens, seemingly glimpsing the real scene of the mountain and sea, nodding slightly in agreement: "Then what about the transcendence method you spoke of, my husband?"

"Conform to the shape of the mountain and sea, align with its intent. Persist as if existing, living independently. Thus life exists with the mountain and sea, the spirit coexists with it." Qiu Tianhui’s response was profoundly mysterious.

Yet Shao Zida, as if in tune with his mind, understood his thoughts as her eyes shifted.

With a light wave of her hand, a rushing river phantom appeared before the two of them.

The scene focused below the water, where a newborn undercurrent grew robustly, striving to extend and sustain itself along the river’s flow.

"What my husband means is to be like this undercurrent, to bolster our lives by borrowing the momentum of the mountain and sea."

Qiu Tianhui smiled faintly: "You truly understand me, Zida!"

He declared with pride: "The life of the mountain and sea beings is limited. Even so-called transcendent strongmen cannot escape decay and disaster. But this method borrows the great momentum of the mountain and sea to extend our own life span. As long as the mountain and sea endure, so too will our lives, free from the worries of ordinary life!"

"And the longer we live, the more we occupy the mountain and sea. Until..."

Qiu Tianhui pointed to the image created by Shao Zida, where the once thumb-thick undercurrent gathered more surrounding water vapor, becoming increasingly robust.

Until, at the river’s end, it occupied half of the underwater domain.

Almost standing in equal measure with the entire mountain and sea!

"This is what is called being with the mountain and sea!"

Shao Zida watched as the scene unfolded before her, lost in thought.

"It sounds plausible, but is it truly feasible?" After a long silence, she still had some doubts.

"It’s said that the mountain and sea are separated by Dao Yan, and we are but fish trapped in a pool. How can we possibly endure and continue like the mountain and sea itself?"

"Ordinary transcendence methods are incredibly difficult, let alone this alternative transcendence method. It’s almost like stealing the power of the mountain and sea to alter its form, possible only for those with great destiny, great perseverance, and great Qi destiny."

"For us mountain and sea beings to attempt such a rebellious act is akin to smashing eggs on a rock. Yet..."

"Let us not forget, my lady, that the mountain and sea are not eternally strong either. From the current scenes of Dao Yan ravaging, it seems to be gradually losing. The mountain and sea are declining, just as we have our chance!"

Shao Zida vaguely understood Qiu Tianhui’s thoughts.

But then she furrowed her brows lightly: "To be with the mountain and sea. But the mountain and sea ultimately decline. This method..."

Qiu Tianhui chuckled wryly: "Where in the world is there a perfect method? My lady shouldn’t be too greedy. Given our origins, if we are fortunate enough to cultivate to the same level as the mountain and sea, it would already be more than enough. Besides..."

"Take it one step at a time. When we reach that realm, perhaps there will be new solutions. The living will not be stifled to death."

Shao Zida also smiled and stopped dwelling on it.

The two continued to indulge in discussing this so-called [Being with the Mountain and Sea] method.

They remained in the Cave Mansion for several hundred years without stepping out.

Then the image suddenly cut off.

Within the Xuanji Ring, all the saints looked at the Three Saints of Mountain Lian with some astonishment.

Unclear of their intention.

"This method of being with the mountain and sea seems reasonable, but to truly cultivate it successfully... Even with our abilities, I’m afraid it is difficult." Qiejian frowned, shook his head after a thought, and said.

"But since the Three Saints say it is one of the Mountain and Sea’s veins, an important node... Could it be he succeeded?" Bai Xiao was somewhat incredulous.

"But if they truly succeeded, why have we not seen these two in the mountain and sea afterward?" Ye Pan again looked outside the Xuanji, scrutinizing the current mountain and sea.

Indeed, there was no trace of Qiu Tianhui, Shao Zida found within.

"Are they truly absent?"

"Though we don’t see Qiu Tianhui, there are Li Tianhui, Zhang Tianhui. Though we don’t see Shao Zida, there are Xia Zida, Bai Zida."

As the Saint Lianshan spoke, numerous light points seemed to emerge throughout the mountain and sea.

Following their gaze, they were scattered throughout the mountain and sea, different living beings with various possibilities.

With differing origins, circumstances, realms, and strengths.

If not for Saint Lianshan marking them collectively, even the discerning eyes of the saints present couldn’t identify their commonalities.

"Could it be these people are incarnations of Qiu Tianhui and Shao Zida? That’s impossible, right?" The saints had some confidence in their judgment. After carefully observing for a moment, they shook their heads in doubt.

At this moment, Lord Guardian Hill spoke: "They are not the incarnations of Qiu Tianhui and Shao Zida, but their descendants. Indeed, a clever method!"

"Descendants?" The saints were taken aback and looked again.

Feeling even more puzzled.

"What does Lord Guardian Hill mean by this? If there were truly a blood relationship, we wouldn’t be unable to discern it."

Lord Guardian Hill said: "Naturally, I do not mean ordinary bloodline descendants. It means..."

"Without Qiu Tianhui and Shao Zida, these living beings would not appear in the mountain and sea. By borrowing the power of the mountain and sea, they nurtured these beings. They can similarly be called their parents."

"Indeed so." Guihai Saint added, providing the answer.

"They nurtured beings by borrowing the power of the mountain and sea?" The saints pondered over these words and gradually understood what Qiu and Shao were doing secluded for hundreds of years in their Cave Mansion.

They were not indulging in pleasures but genuinely cultivating and seeking enlightenment!

"The evolution of mountain and sea beings is one of the fundamental doctrines of the mountain and sea itself. For Qiu Tianhui and his wife to become involved?" All the saints were somewhat shook, looking at Guihai Saint.

Guihai Saint remained expressionless: "It’s not considered involvement, as Qiu Tianhui mentioned before, simply borrowing the momentum of the mountain and sea. As long as the mountain and sea exist, they will continue to evolve beings. This is one of the mountain and sea’s hidden key veins."

"This couple indeed has extraordinary talent, managing to glimpse its profundity and entwining their power within."

Saint Lianshan pointed again, lighting up numerous light points amidst the continuous full view of the mountain and sea shown earlier like stars rising.

Thickly covering, painting the mountain and sea!

From the mountain and sea where Qiu Tianhui originated to the end of time.
