Becoming a Deity from Planting the Bodhi Tree-Chapter 1051 - 377: Cangqing’s Old Friend, The Original Dao Ancestor (Part 2)

"Is there something?" Cang You said casually, "If there's something, you can tell me as well. I can't predict when this level of battle will end."

"Does Senior Cangqing not have absolute confidence of victory?" Ji Jingqiu probed.

Cang You shook her head and said:

"The master has just returned, his power hasn't been restored to its peak, and he even left the World Tree behind; he's obviously guarding against certain people. This battle is likely to turn into a prolonged one."

"Let's wait and see."

"To see if other True Saints will enter."

Ji Jingqiu noticed that Aunt Cang's expression was visibly uncertain at the moment, clearly troubled and wary about something.

It was apparent that there were still people behind the scenes who had not entered the fray.

"Neither the Void Lineage nor the Holy King Lineage have made a move?" Ji Jingqiu asked.

As one of the Five Pillars, regardless of their individual scheming, they should at least be standing on the same front line before the future True Saints.

Cang You simply explained with a sentence, "Among All Saints, only the Nine Mountains Lineage has taken action."

"By the way, did you know that the Holy King Lineage is looking for you?"

Cang You suddenly bloomed into a radiant smile, gathered her hair with her hand, and asked gently.

Ji Jingqiu nodded, "If possible, I would prefer to meet Senior Cangqing."

He paused, not mentioning that the one he truly wanted to meet was actually the Netherworld Lord of the Nether Ruins Lineage.

His Protecting Gods were still in the Yin Soil, and back then the Netherworld Lord personally stated that their Nether Ruins Lineage owed him a favor.

Theoretically, this person was the most likely to protect him.

Unfortunately, this person had not yet returned.

In contrast, the Cangqing Lineage was a fallback option, and the Holy King Lineage was a choice made with no other alternative.

"Good child, you really know how to speak." Cang You said with a soft smile, "But this time it's different, I don't know what problem you have, but if you go to the Holy King Lineage, they will fulfill your request."

Ji Jingqiu heard the hidden teasing in the words, and asked curiously, "What does that mean?"

Of course, the Holy King Lineage couldn't protect him for no reason.

Not to mention, if he went to the Holy King Lineage, he would inevitably have to compete against Chi Ji.

It's said that this guy could become a Heavenly King at any time now.

"The Holy King is different from my master, he's still an old father. Back then, this person severed his own cultivation to roam the mortal world in pursuit of the path of transcendence, understanding the Acquired Path, and when he returned, brought back a female infant to the Divine Court, who is Chi Ji."

Cang You gracefully smiled, "Now, with the Holy King Lineage having a grown daughter, it seems that he wants to find a suitable candidate for her. If you're interested, I can have my master stand in for Mu Shitian to propose marriage for you."

Ji Jingqiu: "..."

Inside the Inner World.

Hel laughed, "I have a daughter named Chi Ji, whose beauty is serene... Ji Jingqiu, you may forget, but that person doesn't."

Ji Jingqiu rubbed his forehead, "Aunt Cang, don't joke; Chi Ji couldn't have such fortune."

Cang You was instantly speechless, "You rascal..."

Originally, she wanted to joke a few words with this little brat. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

But this guy's words left her somewhat at a loss.

If it were someone else, even if they refused, they would at least say they don't have such fortune, but this guy outright said Chi Ji doesn't have such fortune.

"You better not let this be known, or Chi Ji will definitely see you as an enemy."

Ji Jingqiu replied nonchalantly, "Anyone who I catch up with in the realm level is no longer my enemy."

"Very well," Cang You nodded, "This confidence carries the flair of your other master, so when are you planning to break through to Heavenly King?"

"Very soon," Ji Jingqiu said solemnly, "Before that, I need to meet with Senior Cangqing."

Cang You frowned, "What exactly are you trying to do?"

"I want to open the world and need the Cangqing Lineage to protect my path."

Cang You was silent for a while, then said, "You're not joking?"

"I've found a tier between Fetal Breathing and Sitting Forget that can support the Illusion Dao of the Heavenly King without needing Harmonization to nurture its body, nor worrying about the Dao targeting from beyond."

Ji Jingqiu said frankly.

"Are you paving a path on the spirit level?" Cang You asked in astonishment.

She originally thought Ji Jingqiu at most made some "repairs" to the Heavenly King path, such as creating a shortcut within this realm.

Similar to limitations, this guy hasn't leveled up to the Heavenly King, so there's no way he could touch the Heavenly King's limits.

But it turned out Ji Jingqiu had new "artistry" regarding Spiritual Cultivation.

Should it be said, not surprised for being the contemporary World Venerable?

Mu Shitian once had an impressive understanding of Spiritual Cultivation, crossing to the Other Shore within a hundred years, even astonishing his own master as a Heavenly Person.

Setting her mind, Cang You didn't rush to inquire about what road Ji Jingqiu opened up.

She asked, "Are you really confident?"

"Success or failure is my affair, but I need someone to eliminate external interference for me." Ji Jingqiu said slowly, "I've already received promises from several other True Saints, but a senior told me I need to communicate with the Five Pillars."

Cang You said softly:

"That is the correct choice."

"Our Cangqing Lineage once dominated a fifth of this realm's territory, spanning from the Great Universe to Three Thousand Yanfu."

"At its peak, there were five True Saint Level Ancient Gods within the Divine System. Do you know why my master alone was called 'Venerable'?"

"Because he's the most ancient?"

"You could say that."

Cang You nodded,

"The Five Pillars were born Innate, each representing an origin of this realm, in a sense they are the earliest 'Dao Ancestors' of this realm."

"Back then when All Spirits established the Acquired cultivation system, the earliest nod of approval came from the Five Pillars. Without their permission, All Spirits didn't even have the qualification to cultivate."

"For this reason, a faction led by Nine Mountains among the True Saints had major objections to my master and them, believing that their indulgence led to Acquired beings obtaining the authority to overturn the table against them."
