All Heavenly destiny reduced to ashes-Chapter 807 - 136 Taibai Condensing Dust Breaking Western Wind
Chapter 807: Chapter 136 Taibai Condensing Dust Breaking Western Wind
The so-called true legacy refers to those martial artists whom their mentors believe, at the very least, can achieve the Divine Repository, have the potential to become Manifesting Holy, can inherit the Great Dao, and continue the honor of the sects.
According to An Jing’s classification, the level of a grand sect’s true legacy is quite extraordinary. At the very least, it starts from the level of martial artists from third-tier cities or even provincial capitals, with the pinnacle being someone like her master, Mingguang Dust, who is on par with martial artists of international metropolitan or world-class, capital-level status.
And capital-level martial artists, in Huai Xu, are referred to as ’Heaven’s Chosen.’ Generally, it means not only can they become Manifesting Holy, but they also have the potential to achieve Pure Yang, which makes them super talented seeds.
Mingguang Dust initially couldn’t be considered a proper Heaven’s Chosen because he hid his strength as an ’Endless Heavens Traveler’—but when besieged by true legacies from various sects, including those of the Shangxuan Sect, he showcased his true prowess, revealing his depth.
Facing many adversaries alone, he ultimately killed them all and even broke through to Great Heaven’s Sanctification in the process... Mingguang Dust’s actions not only shocked the martial artists of the Northern Border but even the entire North Mysterious Sacrifice Continent, and even the grand sects of Huai Xu’s Ten Continents took an interest in him.
The so-called Heaven’s Chosen means ’who in the world doesn’t know you.’
An Jing, naturally, also meets this standard. No one doubts that An Jing will not become Manifesting Holy; the most they wonder is whether he can pass the [Daoist Palace Pure Yang Tribulation].
The number of true legacies in the Bright Mirror Sect is constantly changing. Some die while executing missions, some fail to break through due to age and choose to become elders managing the sect’s affairs, and occasionally, a generation is especially outstanding, resulting in a higher number of true legacies than usual.
This generation’s true legacies in the Bright Mirror Sect roughly maintain an average number, totaling fifty-two people, with eleven of them being older true legacies like Mingguang Dust and Ming Heguang, who have achieved the Divine Repository and are still very young.
The other forty-one new-generation members include many excellent seeds, but truly reaching the side of Mingguang Dust is rare, and those like Ming Heguang—likely second-tier peak-level true legacies—number fewer than ten.
The older generation of true legacies, once they take apprentices, automatically retire from their positions as true legacies and become hall masters, like the brothers Mingguang Dust and Ming Heguang, who currently serve as hall masters of one of the thirty-six halls, though they typically travel outside without managing daily affairs.
The departed mentors of An Jing also left a few true legacies behind. These disciples will inherit some of their master’s titles and resources and are currently being cultivated by the grandmaster, Chenyinzi. However, their aptitude is average; in the future, they might reach the Martial Meridian Peak with time, or if lucky, achieve the Divine Repository and become hall masters, which would be their limit.
This time, those issuing invitations to An Jing are the strongest among the true legacies, each representing the pinnacle of their peak, although not as talented as Mingguang Dust, but at least on par with successors like Ming Heguang.
"Seven people, each from different peaks, except for the grandmaster’s Dawn Brightness Peak."
An Jing glanced over, recognizing the names as individuals his grandmaster and senior martial uncles had introduced as outstanding figures within the sect.
Yes. If they were the same age, their skills couldn’t possibly surpass his, but these true legacies are all prodigious talents; they have diligently pursued their potential, and some are older than him, so a few might be interested in him, and he pays attention to them too.
But this time, the focus isn’t on these true legacy friends.
It’s on the individuals behind their visit.
"Among them, except for one or two, the others are likely sent by higher-ups who couldn’t hold back anymore and want to test my situation."
An Jing said to Subdue Evil, "Most of these true legacies were out on missions or traveling the world, and they’ve returned to the sect because of me. I must treat them well—but they’ve certainly met with their masters and grandmasters first. If there’s something unusual, it will surely rub off on them."
"With your sensitivity to demonic qi, Subdue Evil, you should be able to detect if any of them have been tainted by an unusual aura, right?"
"Of course."
Subdue Evil confidently replied, "If they are indeed stained by the Supreme Heart Demon and it has become apparent, I will certainly find it."
"If it hasn’t manifested, the Supreme Heart Demon poses no immediate threat and can temporarily be regarded as normal."
"Yes. Doing so, we can identify the most dangerous collaborators with the Heavenly Demon among them."
An Jing nodded slightly. For him, the insiders of Da Chen and Tianyi Demon Sect aren’t of much concern, because neither force wants to see the Bright Mirror Sect completely collapse. The insiders working with them are similar to his master’s exchange with King Jing, basically guiding the sect to align with them, though not on equal footing.
However, the Shangxuan Sect poses a greater threat as they covet the Heavenly Mirror Fragment. Besides, they have a particular interest in Mingguang Dust and need to be closely watched.
As for the Taiming Sect and the Heavenly Demon, the former is dedicated to ruining the Bright Mirror Sect, aiming to never let it rise again and threaten their position, while the latter, being Heavenly Demons, must be eradicated on sight without mercy!
"A visit in a ten-day period, for now, ignore them and focus on personal matters."
Raising his head, An Jing was overseeing his junior disciples’ training in the Martial Arts Field. He stood up and called out to Xu Keji, who was practicing with a spear, "Keji, lift your left hand five millimeters, lean your body forward, generate power from your lumbar vertebrae and soles, and activate your Inner Breath using the ’Piercing Armor True Strength,’ visualizing your body set afire."
"Yes!"
Although it was a minor adjustment, Xu Keji quickly understood An Jing’s intent. He revised his stance as instructed and immediately felt the power flow more smoothly, a surge of invisible spear energy erupted, transforming into a white wind that pierced the target in front of him.
Spear energy!
Seeing this, Xu Keji exclaimed with delight, "Thank you, Eldest Senior, for your guidance!"
"Hmm, your progress is impressive. In a few days, I can teach you ’West Wind Breaking’."
An Jing continued to have Xu Keji practice, then provided further pointers on qi manipulation, contemplating to himself, "Everyone’s cultivation is progressing well, and the foundation laid by the Imperial Heaven and Houtu Method is solid, but further advancement requires careful consideration."
"Those with fire, earth, and wood attributes can practice ’Grass and Wood Withering and Flourishing Return to Flame Soil,’ water can study ’Cold Water and Smoke and Cold Snow Blade,’ and metal could train in the Taibai Luminous Godly Ban. If they can’t manage that, I’ll refine it to the ’Taibai Condensing Dust Breaking Western Wind.’"
’West Wind Breaking’ is something An Jing recently developed from his Taibai Luminous Godly Ban during the Foundation Establishment realm, incorporating body refinement martial arts from the Huai Xu Realm and his ’Qi Condensation Dust Soldiers’ divine skill to create a martial vein array diagram for metal attributes. It harnesses fate pattern power, condensing golden primordial spiritual fiend within the body, ready to discharge air-cleaving sword qi at any moment. Divine attributes include ’Pupil Fire,’ ’Iron Bone Golden Muscle,’ ’Solid Lead Heart,’ ’Incomplete Core Divine Attribute,’ and ’Sharpness.’
When perfected, it allows one to condense dust into swords, manifesting hundreds of invisible blades of unparalleled sharpness around the body, overwhelming military formations in an instant, tearing through with blood and carnage.
Thus, the cultivation methods An Jing holds encompass the Five Elements, suitable for everyone. Yet, for those pure in their attributes, their progress with Returning Flame Soil might be slow, but An Jing has plans.
Wood attributes focus on ’Withering and Flourishing Cycle of Life and Death,’ fire on ’Burning All Things to Serve Myself,’ and earth on ’All Things Wear Down to Dust,’ offering three different advanced paths for each method, considering future upgrades once better techniques are obtained.
In the meantime, An Jing recorded his development insights and contemplations in the library of Mingguang Peak for future generations to learn, possibly aiding some future prodigy among the Children of Calamity to complete the lines of thought.
However, these are only suitable for general talents.
His companion star, ’Purple Qi’ Gu Yeqi, requires a personal cultivation method.
’Purple Qi’ Gu Yeqi has a pure wood attribute and, due to the Four Excess Traits, carries some yin attribute meanings, suggesting ’propagation and growth in tranquility,’ preventing the mixture with other attributes.
An Jing intended to develop something but found wood attributes to lack good cultivation methods previously obtained, forcing him to shelve the plan temporarily.
Nonetheless, there’s no need for excessive concern, as the Gu Family’s heritage, ’Beidou Hundred Refinement Method,’ is a rootless cultivation method obtained from the Dragon Clan.
Optimizing it as the foundation should yield outcomes comparable to bespoke methods.
Turning his head, An Jing saw Gu Yeqi floating mid-air, black hair billowing, surrounded by invisible qi currents sweeping around like a rotating fan, accelerating the absorption of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Evil, resembling a grand tree in a storm, steadfastly growing amid the tempest.
This behavior was unusual.
Typically, practitioners of the Hundred Refinement Method cultivate with dragon-serpent dances, emphasizing an overwhelming momentum, like stars striking together with unstoppable force, their punches splitting the air, leaving the struck unaware until their demise.
But due to the effect of Purple Qi, Gu Yeqi embarked on a quieter, more serene path—where others achieve a hundred strikes in a punch akin to a falling constellation, she establishes a profound rootedness, deeply entrenched and incredibly stable.
This is her distinguishing trait; if well-utilized, Gu Yeqi could cultivate at an extraordinary pace.
