"Yu Wei, Shifu..." Ji Ning couldn't help but look at Yu Wei with concern after realizing the cruelty of the Immortal Fate Conference. "You've only been cultivating for ten years more than me, and yet there are geniuses in the conference who have cultivated for over three hundred years. Isn't it very dangerous for you to go, Shifu? If you really want to go, why not endure for another three hundred years?"
The girl in black, Yu Wei, shook her head slightly: "Three hundred years, it's too long."
"I've already advised her." The True Person of Cangjiang also sighed.
"Yes, it's too dangerous. The top-notch ones in the Xianyuan Conference are all just Wanxiang Yuanshen, but their comprehension of the 'Dao' is absolutely at the level of immortals, and some are even higher than ordinary immortals. Some, like my brother Ji Ning, have been suppressed for three hundred years just to participate in this battle." Beishan Baimei also expressed concern, "Hu Hong Xianzi, you may be a reincarnated immortal, but your cultivation is still short after all. Unless your past life memories fully awaken."
If one is fully awakened, all the enlightenment of the past life about Tao will be completely understood.
In that case, it's still possible to give it a try!
"The Immortal Fate Conference, most of them grasp only one complete Tao. Yu Wei shook her head, "Those who can control two complete Tao are extremely rare, and those who comprehend three Tao, I'm afraid they can already rank in the top ten. As for comprehending Tao, one's own strengths are grasped quickly, while those that are not their strong suit become slower and slower."
Ji Ning nodded.
Apart from the Great Way 'Sword Way', what I am good at is the Blazing Fire Way, Rainwater Way and Gale Wind Way. If I give myself a hundred years, I have confidence that I can fully comprehend these three Ways. But if I were to comprehend four Ways, five Ways... even if I gave myself three hundred years, I wouldn't be confident. Because with other Ways, I don't have any leads at all.
"I may have only grasped one way," Yu Wei smiled and said, "but my memories from my past life can now occasionally recall some fragments, which also allows me to learn some secret techniques. I'm much stronger than the average person who has just grasped one way."
"Ranking in the top ten is hopeless." Yu Wei shook her head, "But as for staying alive, I'm fairly confident."
Ji Ning, Bei Shan Bai Wei and others looked at each other. Since Yu Wei Shifu had already said so, they couldn't persuade her anymore. Moreover, reincarnated immortals were special to begin with; who knows when they would completely awaken their past life memories.
"In my past life, I failed to overcome the tribulation. This time, I must be brave and make rapid progress." Yu Wei's eyes shone with a bright light, "This Gathering of Immortal Fate allows me to cross hands with so many truly top-notch geniuses. This is a rare opportunity for tempering that may only come once in a lifetime."
Ji Ning suddenly felt a stir in his heart.
Yes.
Being able to fight with so many geniuses must be below Yuan Shen. Once you break through Yuan Shen, there won't be such opportunities anymore.
"Should I go or not?" Ji Ning pondered, "Yu Wei said that those who comprehend three Daos can generally rank in the top ten. The stronger a cultivator is, the more Daos they comprehend... My current strength is still far from those who have comprehended three Daos."
There are still three years.
"Just wait and see how much my strength will increase in these three years."
Ji Ning secretly thought to herself.
At this moment, Ji Ning made up his mind and decided to go all out in the next three years to improve his strength as soon as possible.
"Yu Wei Shijie, Cangjiang Shixiong." Ji Ning looked at his two seniors.
Yu Wei and Cang Jiang both looked at Ji Ning.
"I don't know if the two of you can stay in Winged Snake Lake for a few more days, and also ask your junior brother to learn from you. I've been in Winged Snake Lake all these years, and only Snow Feather Taoist has really given me a run for my money. The other times I caught wanted criminals were not that exciting."
"Haha." The True Person of the Cangjiang River also laughed, "It's hard to find an opponent, Younger Brother you are a master of the Sword Immortal Way, I've heard that you're very skilled in battle. I'd also like to have a match with you, Younger Brother."
Yu Wei also nodded and smiled: "Before the Fairy Fate Conference, I had nowhere to go. Before competing with countless geniuses in the entire Daxia Dynasty, I can spar with you, Ji Ning... maybe it will also make my strength increase again. Just hope that you, Ji Ning, have prepared a lot of fine wine and delicacies, as Jiang Jiang and I are very particular."
"Leave this to me." Bei Shan Bai smiled and said, "I will definitely make the three of you satisfied."
All three of them were among the top-notch ones in Wanxiang Zhenren.
Yu Wei and the two are reincarnated immortals, and Ji Ning is also considered by many to be a reincarnated immortal. Otherwise, how could his divine soul be so powerful? Many people think that Ji Ning's previous life must have been an extremely strong immortal, precisely because his previous life was too strong, making it very difficult for him to awaken his memories of past lives.
The stronger the past life, the harder it is to awaken. Even if a loose immortal like Yunhua Xianren or Beixing Xianren, who can rival the heavenly immortals, successfully reincarnates, they may not necessarily be able to awaken their memories of their past life after becoming an earthly immortal in their new life.
"You three are comparing, how can you all ignore me!" Mu Zishuo glared and said.
Ji Ning, Yu Wei and Cang Jiang all looked at Mu Zishuo.
Mu Zi Shao angrily said: "My control over the treasure tool may not be a match for you, but I have a real trump card puppet, which was created by my master and me together. Although it consumes a lot of yuan liquid, it can absolutely rival a Yuan Shen Dao person! And this puppet is a treasure tool itself, even more indestructible than the body of a Shen Mo Lian Ti!"
"Alright, I'll count you as one." Yu Wei smiled and said.
"The way of puppets, some powerful puppets are quite formidable." The True Person of Cangjiang also nodded, "Unfortunately, the Immortal Fate Conference does not allow those who practice the Way of Puppets to participate."
"Why can't those who follow the Puppet Way participate?" Mu Zishuo said angrily, "It's so unfair."
Ji Ning also smiled: "I know this, because I've never heard of any great expert who has fully grasped the way of puppets. Since there is no great expert in this path, how can they point you to become a celestial immortal?"
The trees were withered and bare.
Yes.
The essence of the Fairy Fate Conference is to let some powerful people discover some talented and gifted geniuses, and then recruit them as their disciples. Powerful people who are not good at puppetry will naturally not be chosen.
The Way of Puppetry seeks to bring out the properties of all materials and pursue the ultimate in nature! However, there are countless things in the world, and it's unknown how many years it would take just to see them all. To truly comprehend the Way of Puppetry is impossible in legend. Every cultivator who embarks on this path knows this... At the same time, they are convinced that this great way has no limits, and they pursue even greater strength.
Yu Wei, Cang Jiang and Mu Zi Shuo temporarily settled down by the Winged Snake Lake, while Bei Shan Bai Wei returned.
Ji Ning and his three companions would sometimes engage in friendly competitions and at other times discuss the Dao, which led to varying degrees of improvement for all of them.
One day, a large ship floated on the surface of the Winged Snake Lake.
Ji Ning and three others were chatting.
"Yu Wei shi jie, what's wrong?" Ji Ning asked, noticing that Yu Wei shi jie had tears in her eyes. Earlier in their conversation, he had mentioned that his parents had passed away, which seemed to have caused Yu Wei shi jie great sadness.
Cangjiang Zhenren said in a soft voice, "Like you, Yu Wei's parents also passed away early, and it was so since she was young."
"Deceased early?" Ji Ning was taken aback.
Yu Wei's eyes welled up with tears, and as the tears fell, they evaporated instantly. Her gaze was distant, and she said softly: "Back then, I was still young and hadn't even started practicing or awakened my memories. My tribe was attacked, and we began to flee... During our escape, my parents died protecting me, and I was traumatized. The powerful divine soul within me burst forth, killing all of our enemies."
Ji Ning could imagine the scene of a young child being stimulated by the killing of his parents, with his soul bursting out... and even the Zifu Cultivators would be annihilated.
"But it's too late." Yu Wei shook her head. "My parents will never come back, although they were with me for only three years, but I will never forget them in this lifetime."
Three years?
Yu Wei was only three weeks old at that time.
A long arrow was cutting through the sky, from the distant Shangshui County to Anyang County Yanshan.
Because Jiulian was not a member of the Dragon Guard, she couldn't use the teleportation array, so she had to keep flying to hurry along...
"It's finally here!"
The long arrow stopped.
A figure in a snow-white Taoist robe flew out, and with a wave of her hand, she put away the long needle. She looked far into the distance and saw that on a boat on the surface of the Winged Snake Lake below, there were four people - Ji Ning, Mu Zixiao, Huo Hong Xianzi Yu Wei, and Cangjiang True Person - drinking and chatting happily.
Yu Wei shi jie, Cang Jiang shi xiong?
At this moment, all four of them on the boat below felt the fluctuations in the air and looked up.
As soon as Ji Ning saw the Nine Lotus in the sky, he revealed a joyful expression and stood up.
Yu Wei and others also stood up. Yu Wei and Jiu Lian had a very good relationship, so she immediately shouted loudly: "Sister Jiu Lian."
Whoosh!
Jiulian flew directly down from the air and landed on the boat. First, she exchanged eye contact with Jining, both of their eyes having a hint of affection. Then Jiulian turned her head to look at Yuwei, happily saying: "Shijie, I didn't expect to see you here, it's been so long since we last met. Oh, and also Shangjiang shixiong and Zisuo shidi."
"I haven't seen you in a long time either, it's been ten years, right?" Yu Wei also smiled happily, "How can you disappear for ten whole years."
"Never mind." Jiulian shook her head, "I was trapped in the Wanlian Cave by the tribe and couldn't get out until I broke through the formation a few days ago. I flew from Shangshui County to Anping County, it took me a long time."
"With your identity, why did your tribe imprison you in the Wanlian Cave?" Yu Wei asked in surprise. She was one of the closest people to Jiulian in the Heibai Academy, and if Luo Qing's relationship with Jiulian was due to growing up together since childhood, then Yu Wei and Jiulian were truly kindred spirits. Therefore, Yu Wei was also aware of some of Jiulian's background.
Jiulian couldn't help but glance at Ji Ning: "It's all because of him."
"Who is he?" Yu Wei felt that Jiulian's glance was not quite right. It didn't seem like a normal relationship between fellow disciples, but rather like a pair of emotionally entwined Dao companions.
Ji Ning walked over and took hold of Jiu Lian's hand, also unsure of what to say. After a long time, he only managed to squeeze out three words: "Are you okay?"
"It's nothing, I'm just a bit down, but after I left the Wan Lian Cave, Dong Yan Shi will never interfere with our affairs again." Jiulian looked at Jining, her eyes full of joy.
"Will you no longer interfere?" Ji Ning also couldn't help but reveal a joyful expression, the obstruction of Dong Yan's family had always been a heart disease for Ji Ning, now it was all cleared up, everything had disappeared into thin air.
"Them two?"
Yu Wei looked at Ji Ning and Jiu Lian in such a state, and couldn't help but be stunned.
"It's still unclear whether they have become dao companions or not!" The True Person of Cangjiang burst out laughing.
"Ji Ning Shixiong, you've actually formed a Dao companion without even telling me!" Mu Zishuo shouted.
Yu Wei stood aside silently watching, with a faint smile on her face.
