Chapter 1554: Chapter 33: Entering the Unity Realm!

Cross Immortal Gate.

Pill Room.

Two hours later, the Medicinal Power of the vine body was completely absorbed.

Jiang Ning opened his eyes, only to feel his whole body light, his Qi-Blood abundant, his entire being relaxed; his state was even better than before breaking the formation.

He then looked toward the vermilion tender sprout before him; its rosy glow was still there, only much softer than before.

"For me, Essence, Qi, and Spirit now have no more barriers; the three intercommunicate. This thing can strengthen the Divine Soul, which for me is to increase Essence, Qi, and Spirit, and at the same time make the three flowers solidify!" A thought flashed through his heart.

His gaze once more fell upon that vermilion immortal bud.

The sprout was only the size of a grain of rice, yet it contained a jade-like rosy glow, as if a streak of morning glow had been condensed upon his fingertip.

He then raised his hand and placed it into his mouth.

The immortal bud entered his mouth and did not dissolve; instead, it quivered slightly, and as if Spiritual, plunged straight down into the depths of the Dantian, where it hovered in front of that immortal seedling that had already grown to more than one foot four inches in height.

The next moment.

Buzz!

The immortal bud suddenly burst forth with thousands of strands of crimson radiance as fine as hair, plunging like roots into the branches, leaves, and stem of the immortal seedling.

The immortal seedling trembled violently, and began to grow again at a speed visible to the naked eye!

In just a few breaths, the immortal seedling shot up another inch; its leaves grew broader and thicker, faint blood-colored veining flowing between them, as if blood were coursing within.

"So it still has such an effect!!" Seeing this scene within his Dantian, his heart immediately leapt with joy.

At the same time, a gentle yet vast power of the Divine Soul was fed back out from the immortal seedling, rising upward, ignoring all obstacles and rushing straight to the Spirit Platform.

Jiang Ning only felt a swelling between his brows as the Divine Flower suspended within his Spirit Platform shone with brilliant silver light, the seventh petal rapidly solidifying.

At the same time, through the bridge connecting Essence, Qi, and Spirit, the Qi Flower in the Dantian and the Essence Flower in the heart also solidified at high speed.

Compared to the effect of the vine body, the Medicinal Power of the immortal bud was even more rapid, even more domineering.

The Medicinal Power was being digested by his body at a tremendous pace, and the immortal seedling was also growing swiftly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"No wonder that person from the Flying Immortal Sect could possess a six-foot immortal tree!" Thinking of the scene just now, Jiang Ning suddenly understood.

He now understood even more the meaning of the four characters: wealth, companion, method, and land.

That Ling Xuzi, bearing a Grotto Heaven within his body, enjoyed resources piled upon him by the Flying Immortal Sect, allowing him to reach the level of an immortal tree six feet tall.

Whereas at that time, the Immortal Root within his body had only transformed to a height of one foot, not yet enough to be called a tree, merely a seedling.

Now, having experienced for himself the effects of the Dragon Blood Green Immortal Vine, he personally realized just how powerful the Earth Treasures coming from a Cave Heaven Blessed Land truly were.

At this moment, as the immortal seedling grew and the medicinal nature dispersed, the Essence Flower at his heart and the Qi Flower within his Dantian were likewise drawn along, their crimson and golden hues bright, shining upon each other.

Resonance formed among the three flowers, condensing upon his body into a faint tricolored halo that slowly revolved.

...

To the side, Ji Mingyue couldn’t help but pause her motion of sorting and distributing the Pills, looking toward Jiang Ning, a trace of surprise flashing in her eyes.

The Immortal Crane beside her, which had been drowsy, also opened its eyes at this moment to look at Jiang Ning.

The pair, one person and one crane, watched for the time it takes to burn half a stick of incense; only when Jiang Ning showed no other movement did they slowly withdraw their gazes.

The Immortal Crane lowered its head and went back to sleep, and Ji Mingyue continued sorting and discerning the Pills in the pill cabinets.

...

At the same time.

Jiang Ning had been quietly observing the solidity of his three flowers, until the three flowers, dwelling separately in the Spirit Platform, heart, and Dantian, each reached nine-tenths solidity.

"Almost!!" His heart was somewhat stirred.

For the three flowers of Essence, Qi, and Spirit, every additional petal makes this secret technique a bit stronger; this also means his strength will increase accordingly.

Moreover, the number of petals on the three flowers also represents his own shortcoming.

Only when the three flowers are balanced, Essence, Qi, and Spirit balanced, can a stable Mixed Element Realm be formed.

During the First-grade process.

Essence, Qi, and Spirit must not fall out of balance.

If they do, inner heaven and earth will be thrown into turmoil.

If that state continues for long, it may even lead to a drop in realm, and the Mixed Element Domain will collapse.

Only by taking a further step and entering the First Grade Unity Realm can one escape such restraints.

And the three flowers increasing a petal at the same time signifies that Essence, Qi, and Spirit remain in balance.

The growth of the three also causes the strength of the Mixed Element Domain to rise to another level.

Another short while passed.

In total, only the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.

"Done!!"

He rejoiced inwardly.

The three flowers, in this instant, completely transformed from illusory to solid.

The flowers bloomed with seven petals, radiating crimson, gold, and silver radiance.

The brilliance of the glow was even stronger than just now.

He felt the sea of Qi within his Dantian surging like the tides, rising and falling, emitting rumbling sounds.

He felt his Qi-Blood roaring like a Red Dragon, letting out continuous roars.

He felt his Divine Thought surging outward like the tide.

The breathing of the guard outside the pill room, the low whispers of Shen Wenyan and Master Yun Yin outside, the "swish swish" sound of soldiers stepping on snow at the foot of the mountain—all were clearly audible.

Every single snowflake falling between heaven and earth was reflected in his mind.

His range of perception was broader, larger, and clearer.

He slowly gathered his Heart Spirit, drawing the outward-spreading Divine Thought back into his body.

At this moment, his Spirit Platform was clear as a mirror, a Qingming like ice and snow.

In this instant, he felt that there was no more omission within himself; every shred of power of Essence, Qi, and Spirit had transformed into the three suspended flowers.

The three flowers dwelled separately in the Spirit Platform, heart, and Dantian.

The three types of power intertwined and resonated within his body, slowly deriving fine golden streams.

"As expected, with the current strength of my Essence, Qi, and Spirit, I can only condense seven-petaled three flowers; this also signifies that my limit is seven petals. Now that the seven petals are formed, Essence, Qi, and Spirit merge into one without the slightest obstacle, directly transforming into golden Divine Power!"

"And all of this is because I had already taken this step before!!"
