Ning used his 'one with the world' footwork to fly forward, moving as fast as the wind. After leaving Eastmount Marsh, he continued to flee at high speed. He had probably traveled more than a thousand kilometers through the forest before coming to a stop. By now, the Golden Crow had completely descended from the mountains, but the clouds to the west were still bright red, allowing the earth to still have a sliver of light.
"Phew!" Ning wiped his head, his forehead covered in sweat.
"First, I ran 300 li on water, then I ran over a thousand li in the forest. I've never run like this before. I didn't expect my body to be covered in sweat.”Normally, Ning wouldn't even sweat when he went to Eastmount Marsh, treading on water for a thousand kilometers. However, he hadn't reached his maximum speed at that time.
Exhaustion welled up in his heart. Ning slowly walked forward. In front of him was a pond, and within the pond were lotus flowers in full bloom. The lotus flowers were unstained by the mud, and their roots were straight. A whiff of lotus fragrance wafted into his nose, causing the exhausted Ning to reveal a hint of a smile as he sat down by the pond.
"I managed to escape." Ning flipped his hand and produced a bamboo tube. This bamboo tube was filled with clean water. He raised his head and drank two mouthfuls.
"I wonder how that little green snake is doing.”Ning let out a soft sigh."Little azure snake, don't blame me. I wasn't able to save you either. I only hate that I never reached the Xiantian level.”
"Xiantian!"
As Ning thought of this, a hint of worry rose in his heart.
As the number one Fiendgod Body Refining technique, the [Crimsonbright Diagram of the Nine Heavens] was incredibly powerful, but it was simply too difficult to train in. Even with his own aptitude, it was difficult for him to break through. How could he achieve this 'Yin-Yang fusion, fire and water'? How could he merge the Tai Yin and Tai Yang powers into one?
"How do I break through?" Ning racked his brains.
Whoosh!
A gentle breeze blew. The cool breeze of a summer evening was very comfortable. The breeze blew the lotus flowers in the pond to the left and right, while some of the lotus leaves rotated slightly, left and then in the opposite direction.
Ning had already reached the 'one with the world' level with his Shadowwind Steps, so his soul was naturally one with the wind of the world. When the wind blew against the lotus, he could clearly sense it…
"Hmm?" Ning revealed a look of curiosity.”
Ning was moved.
"If a leaf is blown by the wind, it will only flutter! Because it has no roots!"
"If it was a small tree, it would only sway left and right when the wind blew! Because it didn't have huge round leaves.”
"When the lotus leaves are blown, the lotus leaves can turn left and right to dissipate the impact.”
Ning raised his head to stare at the sky. Although the sky wasn't completely dark, he could already make out the faint outline of the moon.”
"Left turn, right turn!"
"Day versus night. It's precisely because there's day that it can reflect the night!”Ning murmured to himself,"In the darkness, a single speck of light is incomparably dazzling! The lotus leaf turned left and right, rotating in two opposite directions. The wind was removed, and it was normal.”
Ning closed his eyes.
His body and mind were one with heaven and earth. He felt the wind and the lotus leaves by the pond.
He could vaguely sense a great law that existed in this world for countless years…This mystery was Dao! The wind contained the Dao within it, and the Dao was unfathomable and unfathomable. But when the wind blew against the lotus leaf…Ning immediately discovered the shadow of the Dao within the lotus leaf. He discovered the rhythm of the Dao, the true meaning of the Dao!
Ning quietly sat down in the lotus position next to the pond, completely immersed in it. He was carefully savoring the slight rhythm of the Dao that he could sense from the lotus leaf's movements.
……
Dao enlightenment was something that could be encountered but not sought.
Only when one's mind, thoughts, environment, and many other aspects were completely in sync with each other could one come into contact with a trace of the Dao. And to touch the Dao…the prerequisite was that one must first become one with the world. Only when one's spirit was completely integrated with the world could one touch the eternal Dao.
"Hua hua hua ~" The water in the pond flowed slowly along a small stream covered by weeds.
"Croak, croak, croak!"
As night fell, the croaking of frogs could be heard in the forest.
Gradually…
Strands of light began to slowly gather around the seated Ning. First, bits of water-colored light began to gather, gradually forming into enormous lotus leaves. The water-colored lotus leaves surrounded Ning, spreading out and swaying gently in the wind.
Soon after, more specks of flame began to gather together, once again forming a flame-colored lotus leaf. The enormous lotus leaf also began to revolve around Ning.
Two layers of lotus leaves.
The first layer was water colored lotus leaves, and the second layer was fire colored lotus leaves. Each layer of lotus leaves had three petals.
"Phew!" Fire and water intersected, and wind was born out of thin air.
Hua hua hua ~~~
The wind generated between the two layers of lotus leaves caused the two layers of lotus leaves to spin. The lower layer of water-colored lotus leaves spun to the left, while the upper layer of fire-colored lotus leaves spun to the right! The two layers of lotus petals began to spin in completely different directions…slowly, slowly, slowly. Ning didn't use any of his own power at all.
Everything happened naturally.
"Sou!" A gray-furred wolf dashed out from the forest. Its green eyes stared at the fur-clad youth in the distance. However, the lotus leaves that were several dozen feet wide around the fur-clad youth made it feel a little puzzled. However, as a wild beast with low intelligence, its senses told it that those spinning water-colored lotus leaves and flaming lotus leaves were only a part of the world. Just like the clouds…they were nothing to be concerned about.
The gray wolf bared its teeth and stared at the fur-clad youth.
It was very hungry!
This fur-clad youth was sitting there motionlessly as if he was asleep. He definitely did not have the ability to resist. Moreover, this human youth looked really tender. He must be very delicious. The gray wolf could already feel its saliva secreting.
No more hesitation!
"Sou!" The wild wolf swiftly rushed over, then pounced out, opening its fangs, wanting to bite the fur-clad youth.
However, it leaped into the area covered by the two layers of lotus leaves.
"Tsk!"
The wind created by the intersection of the two layers of lotus leaves carried the power of the world, instantly killing the wild wolf. Blood slowly flowed down the ground, some seeping into the soil, and some flowing into the pond.
……
At night.
Ironwood Zhan and his subordinate, the black-robed Bi 'an Tiger, were currently following behind an ice bee through the forest.
After all, the Ice Wasps were just a type of bee, not some big bird or demon. One could imagine their flying speed! It was far less than one-tenth of what Ning could run at.
"This kid of the Ji clan really knows how to run." Zhan's expression was grim." He's already left Eastmount Marsh, and he's actually still fleeing…"
The black-robed man hurriedly said,"Master, the Ice Bees fly much slower. If this kid of the Ji clan continues to run, all the way to any of the five prefectures of the Ji clan, then the Ice Bees will be able to fly faster. I'm afraid we don't have any other choice.”
"Running all the way to the five prefectures?" Zhan shook his head." That's too far. Eastmount Marsh is located at the border of the Ji clan's territory. That kid of the Ji clan shouldn't have gone so far.”Although he said this, in his heart, Zhan was worried. If Ning really did run off to any of the five prefectures, although Zhan was confident, he didn't dare to charge into the enemy's lair.
"Chase slowly."
Tie Mu occupied the road." Wherever the Ice Flower Liquid passes, it leaves behind a special fragrance. It will only dissipate after three days. We can't smell it, but the Ice Bees can. As long as that kid of the Ji clan doesn't escape to the five prefectures, he's dead!”
"Yes, he's dead." The black-robed man hurriedly replied.
"You ruined my plans and made me have another great enemy in the future.”Ironwood Zhan couldn't help but feel terrified when he thought about how the Azure Skysnake, who was able to traverse through the void, had become so powerful that it had become a Zifu Disciple and then come charging back. At the same time, he hated Ning even more.”
"Yes, skin him and pull out his tendons!" The man in black also bared his teeth.
……
A golden crow appeared in the distance in the east. It was already dawn. Ironwood Zhan and the Bi 'an Tiger under his command were still slowly chasing after him. They were all fuming with rage. This kid of the Ji clan truly was far too cautious. After leaving Eastmount Marsh, he had actually fled for at least a thousand kilometers.
It was tiring for an Ice Bee to fly thousands of miles. Fortunately, the Ice Bee was a mutated insect.
"Master." The black-robed man's eyes lit up as he hurriedly pointed into the distance.
"Hmm?" Ironwood Zhan, who was also mentally exhausted, looked in the direction he was pointing. He immediately saw a faint figure by the side of a pond in the distance. This caused his spirit to jolt.
Ironwood Zhan's eyes lit up, and he licked the corners of his lips, communicating mentally,"Let's go."
When a master and a spirit-beast were at a very close distance, they would be able to maintain a mental connection. As for the distance…it would depend on how powerful the souls of the two were. Generally speaking, Xiantian lifeforms would have to be within ten meters of their spirit-beasts to be able to maintain a mental connection.
The two of them moved forward carefully, trying not to make a sound.
However, Zhan wasn't afraid even if he made a sound. He was a late-Xiantian expert, after all; he could run even faster than Ning. In addition, he had a 'Divine Strider Talisman' and other ordinary Dao-seals on him; there was no way he would let Ning escape.
"What an idiot. No matter how careful I was, I could still make some noise. I actually didn't sense anything at all. He should be a Fiendgod Body Refiner. Logically speaking, his six senses should be very sharp. Hmph hmph. He really doesn't have any experience.”Ironwood Zhan laughed coldly." That's fine too. I'll also relax a little. Otherwise, I might have to waste another Divine Strider Talisman.”
Ironwood Zhan and the black-robed men under him continued to advance.
Gradually…
They saw it clearly.
"What?" The two of them were also stunned.
Because the sun had already risen, under the sunlight, the huge fire lotus leaf and water lotus leaf seemed a little translucent. After all, these lotus leaves were not real lotus leaves. They were formed by the power of heaven and earth. When the sun shone, they immediately became translucent.
The two layers of enormous lotus petals were slowly rotating in opposite directions, but they were filled with a strange melody. Ning was seated in the lotus position in the middle of the two layers of enormous lotus petals.
"What, what's going on?" Although Ironwood Zhan had seen many things, this was the first time he had seen such a strange sight.”
"However, even if you break through to become a Xiantian lifeform, you'll only be in the early stages.”A hint of viciousness appeared on Zhan's face.
