Chapter 1498: Chapter 526: Curtain Falls, True Spirit Projection 3

"Figure out the situation over there, and Fatty Hu will be in your hands for now," Ji Jingqiu said. "During this Season of Slumber, I need to sort out the Path to Transcendence a bit; Red Lotus has given me quite a bit of inspiration."

Upon hearing this, Red Lotus, who had been "invited" to the side by Wuzhou, clenched her teeth tightly.

Although she hasn’t detailed how to walk these three paths, for the most elite, it’s already sufficient.

Hel asked curiously, "Is that saying of the Three Paths Unite true or false? Outside the Sea of Realms, is there really a colossal Gate awaiting you to inherit, existing for trillions of epochs? Last time you mentioned that the Buddha Country seems to be a force that can rival the sole Heavenly Court."

"The truth of the Path to Transcendence will be revealed once walked," Ji Jingqiu said. "As for the latter..."

He shook his head, "You must take it one step at a time."

"After this Season of Slumber ends, I should leave this Realm and attempt to return to my homeland."

Ji Jingqiu spoke softly,

"I have already seen that the source of all Fate convergence is right there."

He gazed into a distant direction within the Sea of Realms, a wisp of Divine Thought appearing in front of Ji Tianxing.

The Heavenly Dome Taoist’s expression suddenly changed, quickly bowing, "Greetings, Your Holiness!"

Ji Jingqiu waved his hand, looked at Uncle Ji with complicated eyes, and slowly said:

"Uncle Master, convey this to Taiyi, he always only has A sliver of hope."

Ji Tianxing understood Ji Jingqiu’s meaning well.

The battle between Taiyi and Ji Linyuan has already ended at this moment.

Taiyi no longer has any other path.

If he defeats Ji Linyuan, what awaits him is surely death!

Even if he has embarked on Transcendence, Ji Jingqiu will personally strike him down.

But if Ji Linyuan wins, even if Taiyi’s "divine aspect" is completely annihilated and I am no longer myself, the essence cannot erase the part of Taiyi.

Then, at least on some level, Taiyi still lives, having fulfilled his long-cherished wish and attained the Dao of Transcendence.

After conveying this, Ji Jingqiu’s Spirit returned to his true self.

"Will the True Spirit Heavenly Rank stabilize during your seclusion this time?" Hel asked curiously.

"It will," Ji Jingqiu slowly closed his eyes, feeling the struggle between his own inherent spiritual light and the True Spirit Heavenly Rank. "The True Spirit Path has already started integrating with the foundational rules of this Realm. After this, I will first present All Spirits with a gift."

"Then, I look forward to your return," Hel smiled lightly.

...

...

A hundred years passed like a flowing river.

For a True Saint who has long been above Fate, partially detached from time, a hundred years, a millennium, or eternity are all but a blink of an eye.

But only this century feels so long as if they have returned to the past.

The one who entered slumber, temporarily ignoring the mundane world, arranged before sleep that Heavenly Court be governed by the Primordial Palace, uniting with Buddha Country to manage more than two hundred realms under their rule, erasing the damages caused by the natural disasters brought by Dou Mu, restoring each realm to its original state.

And the arrival of the True Spirit Heavenly Rank allowed top powerhouses from each family no time to "wander out," but rather to focus on secluded cultivation, contemplating the True Spirit Immortal Path slowly integrating into the foundation of All Paths.

The Sea of Realms entered a rare tranquility and nourishing life.

This peace endured until the return of powerhouses who ventured deep into the Sea of Realms.

These strong individuals, who refused to give up honing themselves in pursuit of the Transcendence Path during the time the Gate remained sealed, upon hearing the detailed account of His Holiness’s battle with the Heavenly Court, had varied thoughts.

Some felt the profundity of the True Spirit Path and immediately entered seclusion upon return.

Others went to visit the Netherworld or Heavenly Court, attempting to trace His Holiness’s footsteps back in the day.

Included were those with aspirations of ambitious desires, but in the presence of two presumed Transcenders, all unseemly schemes were suppressed.

Many strong individuals had diverse thoughts, each with their agendas, differing in purpose.

Their arrival brought some "buzz" back to the Sea of Realms.

...

Yanhuang Federation, Donghuang Continent.

A well-preserved, vintage street that seemed unchanged from the past left visiting tourists enchanted, gazing in awe at the "Holy Land."

The guide leading the way introduced vividly while repeatedly reminding everyone behind him:

"This is the heart of Donghuang Star in the past and the place where Marshal Ji grew up in his early years. Please do not touch anything carelessly, especially avoid leaving any marks. Last time, a visitor was blacklisted by the Federation for poor behavior."

"Next, I will introduce you to Marshal Ji’s early days..."

A grown man stood among the crowd, gazing into the distance at a statue that was not tall, just at man’s height, his eyes vacant.

His name was Roger, and on the day of his coming-of-age at sixteen, he had a secret, that if he tried hard enough, he could improve his Martial Skill Proficiency and access a panel visible only to himself.

He once thought it was a secret unique to him, a Golden Finger belonging solely to the protagonist in a novel!

But until a chance encounter, he discovered that people possessing similar "Golden Fingers" were far more numerous than him, each differing even if extremely similar.

And those seniors who had unearthed their "abilities" far earlier called this talent—

"True Spirit Projection"
