Becoming a Deity from Planting the Bodhi Tree-Chapter 388 - 182: Martial Arts Divine, Taboo Gate, Heart Flame All Phenomena Lamp_5
Not until the majority of the black fog had been driven back behind the door did Ji Jingqiu's spirit stir and a halo of light sweep across, capturing a wisp of black fog that hadn't yet had the chance to return to the void!
Despite its desperate struggle, it could not escape the envelopment of the Heart Flame All Phenomena Lamp.
Ji Jingqiu controlled the Heart Flame, not grinding it completely away, but rather attempting to study it.
He was clear in his heart that what this strand of black fog feared was not his "Heart Flame All Phenomena Lamp," but the "Heart Flame All Phenomena Lamp" merged with the Wisdom Light.
This thing didn't even fear the Bodhi Tree's Glazed Glass Light very much; both were mutually obliterated, and their power essentially on the same level.
But uniquely fearful of his Wisdom Light.
Regrettably, this strand of black fog seemed to have its own consciousness and chose self-destruction at this moment, vanishing completely from the world.
This left Ji Jingqiu quite apprehensive, what in the world was this thing?
Suddenly.
The heavy sound of a closing door reverberated.
The portal that had taken much effort to descend before him now slammed shut abruptly and then rapidly vanished!
Before Ji Jingqiu could react.
He was already back in his original world.
The feeling of solid ground under his feet brought him a sense of relief.
The rustling mountain wind whistled past his ears, the familiar cold breeze struck his face, and then there was the unfamiliar...
Hissing of a snake flicking its tongue?
Ji Jingqiu suddenly became alert, sensing something coiled above his head.
Seeming to detect his return, the creature on his head leaped down, and indeed it was a snake patterned in black and white, its snake eyes a dark golden color, reflecting Ji Jingqiu's figure inside them.
Before Ji Jingqiu could ask.
A somewhat childish voice suddenly echoed in his mind.
[Having witnessed the cosmic silence, I, Elder Ancestor, have decided to entrust my sister to you!]
Ji Jingqiu's expression shifted subtly, Spirit Communication?
He suddenly looked toward Meng Qianyun standing beside him, an astonishing thought emerging in his mind.
Was this actually the legendary Void Giant Beast that Master Meng had subdued, which even after Master Meng's demise, refused to leave its former home?!
But why so small?
Just like the legendary "size as wished"?
Before Ji Jingqiu could gather his thoughts.
The Snow Ancestor, represented by Meng Qianyun, tapped lightly on the back of Ji Jingqiu's hand with the tip of its tail, and in an instant, an ancient and mysterious power continuously streamed into his hand from the Void, eventually forming a Snake Mark that linked end to end.
Ji Jingqiu's face was grave; he could sense that this mark was alive!
It appeared to exist on the back of his hand but was actually nested in the Void, yet through this mark, it established a close connection with him, nearly like a blood bond.
At this very moment, Ji Jingqiu could even perceive its heartbeat.
Upon seeing that Snake Mark, Meng Qianyun's heart churned with shock.
Being a descendant of the Meng Family, he knew all too well what it was!
At this moment, Meng Qianyun looked at Ji Jingqiu with an extremely complex gaze.
It was unclear whether it was envy or sympathy.
Or perhaps both.
[Take it to the Nine States; it will become your partner. Before its birth, remember to 'nourish' it daily with your Silent Annihilation intent.]
Ji Jingqiu stood dazed for a long while, somewhat bewildered.
Was this truly an "egg" of a Void Giant Beast?
What exactly did I just do?
Turning to confirm with Meng Qianyun, their eyes met, and he read sympathy and pity in them, causing his heart to suddenly sink.
A ruse!
Seemingly understanding his thoughts, Meng Qianyun shook his head and said gravely:
"The Snow Ancestor didn't deceive you. You can consider this mark as an 'egg,' that truly could hatch a Void Giant Beast. In the past, the Six Great Families once asked the Snow Ancestor for this egg, wanting to join forces to cultivate it, but were still refused by the Snow Ancestor."
The implication being, these are benefits that the Six Great Families couldn't obtain in the past, you should cherish them...
But Ji Jingqiu remained somewhat skeptical and uneasy.
Happiness came too suddenly.
This was no different from picking up a peerless divine skill on the road.
Is there really such a good thing in the world?
In contemplation, Ji Jingqiu suddenly realized and extracted the key information from Meng Qianyun's previous words.
— Joining forces of the Six Great Families to cultivate?!
He took a deep breath of the cold air atop the snowy mountain peaks.
What kind of bottomless pit is this?!
Meng Qianyun nodded, confirming his guess, and murmured with emotion:
"The cultivation of a Void Giant Beast... indeed is a bit costly."
The little snake suddenly appeared above Meng Qianyun's head, dissatisfiedly hitting him with its tail, saying:
[That's because you couldn't provide the true nourishment my race needs for ascension! We are known as 'Swallowing Realm,' and what we crave the most is the Qi refined from the silence of a realm.]
[If the Silent Annihilation intent within this boy can grow continuously, and he keeps feeding it, it would save eighty percent of the resources!]
Meng Qianyun, with his eyes on his nose and his nose on his heart.
It seems there's only twenty percent left...
Isn't this boy from the Dragon Tiger Dojo?
Even ten Dragon Tiger Dojos might not muster enough.
Ji Jingqiu's expression eased slightly.
Overall, to freeload a Void Giant Beast, if such a gain were spread out, not to mention him, those Grandmasters would be green with envy.
As for the expenses in the meantime...
Thinking that in five years, he would be the "proprietor" of the outer layer of the Po Suo Half-plane, Ji Jingqiu's face brightened again.
He could afford it!
And for the coming five years... Ji Jingqiu pondered for a moment.
What was Elder Gu of the Mu Family's phone number again?
