Chapter 755 - 282: True Spirit Pool, Outrageous

Speaking of which, in the emotions he simulated earlier, there was a sense of longing similar to "missing someone."

"Do you see that tombstone?"

Soon, Ji Jingqiu found a stele in the corner of the courtyard.

"Back then, He Donghuang was eager to break through, not without reasons related to this woman," Hel said casually, "He, like you, wanted to prove the Tao of the present age, reverse the Time River, undo everything, and then you saw what happened."

Ji Jingqiu walked to the stele, upon which only one name was carved.

[Jiang Qingzhi]

Regarding the events of ten thousand years ago, Ji Jingqiu had heard some truths from the Four Directions God.

For these ten thousand years, certain people from the six great families have harbored animosity toward Marshal He, intentionally or unintentionally suppressing his reputation; the four marshals died, inevitably turning to Divine Dao, and eventually, Marshal Mu and Marshal Ji traveled far, whereabouts unknown...

All of this was actually related to Marshal He’s breakthrough at that time.

Or rather, it was the starting point.

"Back then, did Marshal He actually succeed in the breakthrough?" Ji Jingqiu couldn’t help but ask.

Concerning this point, even the Four Directions God was unclear, as their memories were missing this piece.

And in their self-narrations, missing a memory might not be due to forgetting but possibly self-severance.

Hel snorted coldly, crossing his arms: "I had already fallen asleep at that time; how would I know?"

Ji Jingqiu was speechless. Sometimes Lady La was truly confidently useless.

Ji Jingqiu stood in front of the stele, bowed deeply, and respectfully bowed three times.

Not knowing if this person counted as a "master’s wife" or not.

After Ji Jingqiu’s offering, the surface of the stele emitted a layer of spiritual light, followed by a beam of spiritual light shooting into Ji Jingqiu’s body.

This unexpected change surprised Ji Jingqiu a bit, but he did not stop it, closed his eyes, and absorbed the inheritance emerging in his spirit.

Soon, he opened his eyes and solemnly saluted the stele again.

This inheritance did not come from Marshal He but from Senior Jiang engraved on the stele; it was a [Void Secret Skill] inheritance.

Aside from explaining how to establish a realm in the Void, it included various secret techniques and divine skills about the Void. Though not profound, some techniques were quite practical, like a [Void Secret Skill Compilation].

Among them, there was a particular secret technique specifically used to move this True Spirit Pool.

The one who initially discovered this True Spirit Pool and created this little courtyard was not Marshal He but Senior Jiang.

"What’s the use of this True Spirit Pool?"

"Firstly, it can ensure a trace of True Spirit remains unextinguished and enable the rebirth of sentient beings. Secondly, it tempers the Holy Embryo, nourishes the body, and Inner Heaven and Earth... It can be considered ’all-powerful,’ the only drawback being its costly nature, requiring vast quantities of rare medicinal herbs to be filled in and replenish its foundation."

Ji Jingqiu nodded, and according to the secret technique left by Senior Jiang, he tried several times and successfully moved the entire True Spirit Pool into his own Inner Heaven and Earth.

In that instant, mist billowed, rolling away, merging into the surrounding mountain and river, nourishing his Inner Heaven and Earth.

This nourishment invigorated Ji Jingqiu’s spirit, causing all his pores to open, with a perpetual sense of Unity of Heaven and Man.

"The effect is unexpectedly remarkable!" Ji Jingqiu said joyfully.

No matter how strong the Inner Heaven and Earth is, for a Martial Artist, it can never be too much.

"To cultivate it to this extent, back then He Donghuang and others also bled for it, yet ultimately it fell into your hands," Hel commented, "You can consider yourself lucky; otherwise, you could at most soak here for a while, not likely to move the entire thing. This True Spirit Pool is connected to this small realm with a specific secret technique; forcing it would cause the small realm to collapse along with it."

Ji Jingqiu shook his head; this was not mere luck but the reflection of Ji Jingqiu’s respect for teachers and the Tao.

Hel suddenly said, "Ji Jingqiu, with this True Spirit Pool and that necklace, I am confident in assisting you to ’True Union’ with the Great Universe’s Heaven Heart when breaking through the Heavenly Human Boundary. If luck favors you, your Spiritual Holy Embryo will be nourished by the Great Universe’s Heaven Heart, saving considerable accumulation."

"True Union?" Ji Jingqiu muttered to himself, "Then what is the price?"

Hel’s sudden willingness to help naturally could not be without cost.

"There’s no cost, but it’s not guaranteed," Hel said calmly, "You’ve already comprehended the True Self nature; it’s possible, but whether it can be achieved depends on yourself."

"Why are you so keen on helping me?" Ji Jingqiu asked, somewhat puzzled.

Hel replied flatly, "I want to see your limits. You could also consider it a token of gratitude."

"A token of gratitude?" Ji Jingqiu was somewhat surprised, thoughtfully saying, "Is it for rent? You’ve indeed stayed here quite a while."

Hel ignored him.

With her experience, after reviewing the entire process, she naturally deduced Ji Tianxing’s major pursuit.

The word "trash" wasn’t chosen incorrectly at all.

After passing through this little courtyard, Ji Jingqiu chose to leave.

And just as he stepped out of the entrance to this Void little courtyard, the Void Realm began its self-annihilation.

Ji Jingqiu stood in the Void, looked back, and remained silently quiet.

Perhaps it’s better this way; no one will come and bother him again.

As strong as Marshal He was, there were pasts that couldn’t be retrieved, and Hel was no exception.

There was actually something he hadn’t told anyone, including Hel and Marshal Mu.

That was when Hel emerged from the Pure Land, recalling the painful past under the Bitter Sea Water, he caught glimpses of fragments, which were Hel’s "Bitter Sea."

Until transcendence is reached, All Spirits and Gods remain in the Bitter Sea.

After saluting and bidding farewell again, Ji Jingqiu turned around and returned to reality...

He turned his head toward a mountain peak, having previously sensed attention from that direction.

The other party was very courteous, not rushing up while he was in contact with the inheritance, instead patiently waiting for him.
