Incredible Insight: Cultivating Immortality at Eight, Astonishing Zhang Sanfeng

Chapter 107

He gritted his teeth, his eyes bloodshot, his obsession gnawing at his Buddhist heart. Beside him, a gaunt Great Dharma King chanted a Buddhist mantra, speaking slowly: “Foolish child!”

“This may not be a bad thing. At least you have a strong ally. The Evil Emperor shares your goal. Find him, and you might have a chance together.” Seeing Jinlun, who was on the verge of becoming a demon Buddha, the Great Dharma King felt immense bitterness.

He regretted helping Jinlun but had no choice, as Jinlun was the only Buddha child in recent years.

Now, the only way was to remove Jinlun’s obsession, allowing the Esoteric Sect to gain a living Buddha unseen for centuries!

“Great Dharma King, please help me find the Evil Emperor!” The Great Dharma King nodded faintly. Jinlun’s eyes were firm as he continued his meditation.

An elderly monk approached, chanting a Buddhist mantra, pouring his lifelong power into Jinlun, his face trembling, his body withering, yet unwavering, his eyes terrifyingly determined.

The martial world was in turmoil. The news of Ning Changge severing Xiang Yutian’s limbs on Emei Mountain spread, raising Ning Changge’s prestige to new heights in Ming and the Great Sui.

Countless experts learned of the terrifying power of the Little Immortal, Ning Changge, knowing the Evil Emperor’s strength well. The ability to suppress the Evil Emperor spoke volumes about Ning Changge’s might.

Land Immortals marveled, invincible experts awaited Ning Changge’s ascension to the Land Immortal realm, hoping for a worthy opponent.

Forces like the Quanzhen Sect and Peach Blossom Island also heard of Ning Changge’s deeds. Wang Chongyang and Huang Yaoshi recalled finding an abandoned infant at the foot of Mount Hua ten years ago, marveling at how he had grown so powerful, surpassing them in an instant.

They smiled bitterly, wondering what might have been if they had taken Ning Changge in. But they knew it was Ning Changge’s choice to follow Zhang Sanfeng.

They hoped their agreement with Zhang Sanfeng still stood. They began making preparations, knowing they must show proper respect if Ning Changge visited.

The martial world was in motion. On Tianzhu Peak, Ning Changge remained calm, indifferent to the turmoil he had caused. Lending Ji Xiaofu the sword was merely a whim. Now that it was done, he could refine the Heaven-Reliant Sword with peace of mind.

In the Sutra Pavilion, Pure Yang True Fire had been burning for several days. Today, two beams of spiritual light shot into the sky, one blue, one yellow. Wudang disciples looked on with reverence. Those with higher cultivation could see the essence within the light beams: two spiritual swords!

One was azure blue, its sharpness like waves, one after another, as vast and awe-inspiring as the ocean; the other was dark yellow, equally sharp but with a heavy presence, like a mountain pressing down, making it hard to breathe.

“Little Uncle has forged two more spiritual swords!!” The Wudang disciples exclaimed in shock. Though Song Yuanqiao and Ji Xiaofu had not yet returned, the news of the spiritual swords severing the Evil Emperor on Emei Mountain had already spread.

“Now that Little Uncle has forged two more peerless spiritual swords, the combined power of the Five Elements Swords must be terrifying!” The disciples’ admiration was palpable. They bowed respectfully towards the Sutra Pavilion.

The spiritual light in the sky gradually dissipated. Inside the Sutra Pavilion, Ning Changge looked at the two new spiritual swords before him, satisfaction in his eyes. These were the Water and Earth Spiritual Swords, forged by refining the Heaven-Reliant Sword and various collected water and earth spiritual materials.

“You shall be the Azure Water Sword!” The azure blue sword hummed joyfully, circling Ning Changge. “You shall be the Sturdy Earth Sword!” The dark yellow sword trembled slightly, floating before Ning Changge.

Ning Changge smiled. His forging skills had surpassed his past self, and these new spiritual swords already possessed considerable spirituality.

He noticed that the different elements gave the swords distinct personalities.

The Chixiao Sword was explosive, the Golden Edge Sword aloof, the Qingyuan Sword gentle, the Azure Water Sword lively, and the Sturdy Earth Sword steady.

With a sword incantation, the two new swords flew, creating afterimages. Ning Changge nodded in satisfaction. Lending Ji Xiaofu the sword had allowed him to obtain the Heaven-Reliant Sword and successfully forge the final two spiritual swords. With this, the Five Elements Spiritual Swords were complete!

“With the Five Elements Spiritual Swords complete, the next step is to integrate the Five Elements Divine Sword Qi and further create the Five Elements Sword Formation! This will extend the Five Elements Dao into my Eternal Evergreen Technique, achieving the Five Elements Foundation and perfecting my cultivation!” Ning Changge contemplated his path, carefully calculating, ensuring no mistakes, and smiled, his Dao heart at ease.

Sometimes, the pursuit of the Dao required following nature. “Senior Brother and Ji Xiaofu should be returning to Wudang soon. It’s time to create the remaining two sword Qi.” To integrate the Five Elements Sword Qi, all five elements must be complete. With the new swords, it was the best time to comprehend them.

Ning Changge finished his spiritual tea, closed his eyes, and began to meditate. With the foundation of the previous three sword qis, he had a rough idea, only lacking a medium and opportunity.

***

Days passed in the blink of an eye. Beside Ning Changge, the blue and yellow sword lights circled, filling the air with Daoist charm.

Having read nearly ten thousand Daoist scriptures, Ning Changge’s foundation was incredibly rich. When the right opportunity arose, countless spiritual insights would burst forth.

Ning Changge slowly opened his eyes, a flash of joy. Everything had followed its natural course, so he wasn’t too surprised. With his previous accumulation, creating the Ren Water Black Tortoise Sword Qi and Wu Earth Qilin Sword Qi was inevitable. If he hadn’t, that would have been the real surprise.

Above the Sutra Pavilion, the visions of the Black Tortoise and Qilin appeared, causing the Wudang disciples to bow in reverence. Though they couldn’t fully understand, they knew their Little Uncle had made another breakthrough, and it was extraordinary!

In the disciples’ hearts, Ning Changge was a god-like figure, surpassing even Zhang Sanfeng. Ning Changge put away the spiritual swords, his spiritual sense suddenly alert, a smile forming on his lips. “Double happiness. It seems I can complete the Five Elements Divine Sword Qi today!”

His spiritual sense enveloped Tianzhu Peak, clearly seeing Song Yuanqiao and Ji Xiaofu arriving at the mountain gate.

With a gesture, the Chixiao, Golden Edge, and Qingyuan swords flew towards the Sutra Pavilion. Ji Xiaofu, sensing the swords’ movement, was startled but stopped chasing them when she saw their destination. She bowed, tightening her grip on the Evil Emperor’s limbs, and walked respectfully towards the Sutra Pavilion.

Song Yuanqiao and the others exchanged glances and followed Ji Xiaofu. During their return, they had tried to communicate with Ji Xiaofu, but she spoke little, giving them a sense of seeing through worldly affairs.

Inside the Sutra Pavilion, with the return of the Chixiao, Golden Edge, and Qingyuan swords, five spiritual swords now circled Ning Changge. One red, one gold, one green, one blue, one yellow. Their spiritual light intertwined, creating a profound harmony.

With the Five Elements gathered, Ning Changge saw the innate connection between the swords, mutually generating and restraining each other. Before he could act, the swords had already begun to resonate.

“Excellent!” Ning Changge laughed. This confirmed his direction was correct. The Five Elements Sword Qi was a natural progression. With a gesture, his voice echoed like Daoist decrees:

“Qingyuan to the East, representing Yi Wood Azure Dragon!”

“Golden Edge to the West, representing Geng Metal White Tiger!”

“Chixiao to the South, representing Qian Fire Vermilion Bird!”

“Azure Water to the North, representing Ren Water Black Tortoise!”

“Sturdy Earth to the Center, representing Wu Earth Qilin!”

The five spiritual swords shot into the sky, transforming into the Five Elements Divine Beasts, stabilizing the four directions and the center. Their elemental powers flowed and intertwined, forming a profound connection.

Ning Changge observed the flow, entanglement, and fusion of the elemental powers. Countless spiritual insights rose in his mind, the principles of the Five Elements Dao filling his thoughts as he entered a profound state of enlightenment.
