Capítulo 1151: Chapter 121: Refining the Grotto Heaven, Martial Saint’s Secret!

He then went to the window by the river.

The sunset was falling, the sky filled with red clouds, and the river shimmered, reflecting the crimson sky.

“The scenery is quite nice!” Jiang Ning smiled faintly, feeling much more relaxed.

Then he opened the window completely, letting the wind from the river circulate through the room.

“Next, it’s time to continue with bone forging and enhance my strength!” Jiang Ning thought to himself.

The thought passed, and he found a comfortable spot in the room, sitting cross-legged directly.

With a wave of his hand, the Heavenly Gang Yang Stone and Earthly Fiend Yin Stone appeared in front of him before being fully absorbed.

He closed his eyes again to examine his body internally.

In an instant.

He saw the bones in his body transforming from a jade color to a golden hue, faint golden light blossoming within.

At this moment, the fusion of gold and jade seemed exceptionally sacred.

“About one-third of the Jade Bone has been tempered to gold!” Jiang Ning thought.

He then started to mobilize his Qi-Blood, his thoughts flowing, and the Yin Yang stones placed on the ground slowly rose, floating in front of him.

Then, opening his mouth to inhale, the Yin Yang Qi spilling from the stones seemed to be drawn by some force, gathering towards his mouth.

Boom!!

The small hammer of Qi-Blood descended.

A thunderous sound erupted within him instantly.

In a split second, it seemed as though thunder exploded inside his room.

Elsewhere.

Zhong Yue and Ye Zhengqi stood by the window facing the river, each holding a cup.

“What level of strength do you think he has now?” Zhong Yue asked, looking at the river reflecting the red clouds.

“Unfathomable!!” Ye Zhengqi shook his head, downing his drink.

Just at that moment.

The sound akin to thunder exploded from Jiang Ning’s direction, causing the two to look over in shock.

Soon after.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

More explosive thunderous sounds continued.

“That’s… the commotion from Jiang Ning’s side!” Zhong Yue’s expression was stunned.

Ye Zhengqi nodded slowly.

“What is he doing?” Zhong Yue looked puzzled.

“Bone forging!” Ye Zhengqi seemed to think of something, his tone slightly incredulous.

“Bone forging?” Zhong Yue was momentarily confused, then instantly understood and continued, “He’s… forging Divine Bone?”

“Yes!” Ye Zhengqi nodded. “Dragon Tendon Divine Bone Golden Body and Immortal Blood are essential for achieving the body of a Martial Saint!”

“Does he… have hope of touching that gate?” Zhong Yue asked.

Ye Zhengqi shook his head again: “I don’t know!”

He continued: “Over the past eight hundred years, countless talented martial artists have tried to touch that gate, but regardless of how phenomenal they were, ultimately, none reached that person’s achievement.”

“Although he is exceptionally talented now, it may not necessarily happen.”

Upon hearing Ye Zhengqi’s words, Zhong Yue spoke.

“From what you said, you don’t think highly of him either?”

“I don’t know!” Ye Zhengqi shook his head, adding, “He’s very young, and youth implies endless possibilities! Besides, his Immortal Root is deeply planted, and his talent in the Immortal Dao is not low!”

“If he’s willing to settle in a Blessed Land Cave Heaven, mastering the Ancient Method, he can extend his life for hundreds, even thousands of years. Given such a long lifespan, his potential would be even greater!”

Upon hearing these words, Zhong Yue immediately reminded.

“Brother Ye, don’t forget, he has just passed the trial and now is a disciple of the Shangyang Immortal Sect!”

Ye Zhengqi looked in Jiang Ning’s direction, shaking his head: “Shangyang Immortal Sect has long perished in the river of time, perhaps the pocket world before was the last trace left by Shangyang Immortal Sect.”

“If Shangyang Immortal Sect doesn’t exist, how could he have the inheritance of Ancient Method!”

Zhong Yue then spoke: “Martial Saint Mansion does hold quite a few ancient skills!”

“Without an environment, it can’t form a system!” Ye Zhengqi shook his head.

“Brother Ye, that just shows you’re a bit uninformed!” Zhong Yue smiled: “Do you understand why Tao Palace is called Tao Palace? The word Tao doesn’t just mean Martial Arts, it’s also the Immortal Dao, the Great Dao, and the Heavenly Dao. Who says Tao Palace hasn’t mastered a pocket world?”

“Tao Palace has a pocket world?” Ye Zhengqi looked surprised.

“Indeed!” Zhong Yue nodded, then said, “Over the years, that Martial Saint has never emerged, do you really think he’s just secluded? That Martial Saint, at his age, what purpose would seclusion serve?”

“Then what’s he doing??” Ye Zhengqi was taken aback, seemingly realizing something.

“Perhaps he’s refining the will of the pocket world to gain control over it!” Speaking here, Zhong Yue added, “Of course, this is my guess!”

Ye Zhengqi looked at Zhong Yue, understanding the secrets of the pocket world as he reached this point.

Pocket worlds, even in ancient times, were considered scarce; and nowadays, with time’s passage and significant changes, many have collapsed, leaving even fewer surviving.

In olden days, when Martial Saint ruled the land, several forces possessing pocket world inheritances were destroyed, yet no pocket world was ever mastered.

Because every pocket world has its own will.

Outsiders can’t gain recognition from a pocket world’s will and therefore can’t occupy a real pocket world.

Even Martial Saint couldn’t achieve this.

If the pocket world will severs the connection, cutting off contact with the outside, even if Martial Saint arrives, he wouldn’t find it or get in.

In Ye Zhengqi’s mind, thoughts flashed, and he spoke earnestly to Zhong Yue: “I believe this doesn’t seem like a mere guess, Brother Zhong might know something!”

Zhong Yue remained silent.

…

Elsewhere.

As the one hundred and eighth hammer struck.

Jiang Ning’s Heart Spirit enveloped his being.

“It’s done!” Seeing another Jade Bone transform to gold inside, emitting a faint golden light, he couldn’t help but smile.
