Becoming a Deity from Planting the Bodhi Tree

Chapter 774 - 288: Eight Treasures Merit Pond, Defeating the Enemy with a Single Strike

"You don’t even recognize him?" Someone beside spoke with a surprised expression.Ni Yu and the others turned to look, finding a sword-wielding man standing, with another woman sitting cross-legged with her eyes closed.

Upon seeing the woman, the crowd couldn’t help but be shocked. Another expert?

Who is she? She hasn’t come out yet?

Looking around, it was evident that only the Heavenly Human Martial Artists hadn’t retreated.

"Is that Miao Di? From Qingtian Hall?" Someone recognized the woman’s identity and whispered, "It’s said that she inherited the teachings of the Qingtian Hall Master and possesses traits of Divine Prohibition."

At the moment, besides Miao Di from Qingtian Hall, there was only the man sitting opposite Ji Jingqiu in the Heart Image Realm who hadn’t come out.

"This is Chang Sheng from Five Virtues Palace. Not long ago, he challenged Chi Ji from the Holy King Lineage, and now he’s challenging this figure from the Yanhuang Federation." Jian Shiqi added, "Also Divine Prohibition."

The latter two words seemed to make the earlier mention more unsettling.

Challenged Chi Ji from the Holy King Lineage?

Everyone’s gaze changed when looking at Chang Sheng.

Chi Ji from the Holy King Lineage...

If she hadn’t already set out, intending to fight back to the galaxy where the Holy King Lineage is located, and had no interest here, this Ascension Platform would have been a forbidden place.

Not only because she carries the legacy of Heavenly Divine Light, which in today’s Great Universe equals the word "Invincible."

But also because of the unique nature of the Holy King Lineage, with no possibility of cooperation and virtually no "loopholes" to exploit.

After challenging Chi Ji, he still managed to return alive?!

Even if he is Divine Prohibition!

"A disciple of the Five Virtues Palace...?"

"The Five Virtues Palace, I remember another core disciple already bears the Four Virtues but hasn’t stepped into Divine Prohibition. Has this one already attained the Five Virtues, achieving the legendary Five Virtues Body?"

"No wonder it’s one of the oldest True Saint Dojos, quietly cultivating a Divine Prohibition."

The crowd whispered, and their chatter was overheard by Martial Artists from the Federation, who were somewhat surprised when they looked at the youth who appeared sometime beneath the platform.

This person was surprisingly a genius theoretically on par with Ji Jingqiu?

At this time.

The Heavenly Human Martial Artists began to wake one after another.

When they realized their current situation, they couldn’t help but be suspicious, wondering if what happened earlier was just one big dream?

"Did you lose too?" One asked via Spirit Communication.

"Didn’t you?" Another questioned.

The two exchanged glances and couldn’t help but smile bitterly.

For a moment, everyone felt more horror than shock.

Today, even if Ji Jingqiu displayed the power to suppress Heavenly Human Martial Artists at the Second Tier, they wouldn’t be too surprised.

After all, months ago, he was already able to counter Heavenly Human Martial Artists at the First Layer Heaven.

Relying on the Mu Family’s Divine Weapon, he could further suppress the Second Layer Heaven.

And at that time, he was just beginning to enter the Heart Image realm.

Months later, with Ji Jingqiu’s talent, there must have been a leap in the Heart Image domain, and suppressing the Second Layer Heaven, though absurd, had precedent.

But now, the means Ji Jingqiu displayed were unpredictable, causing a suffocating oppression from all sides.

Losing is not the issue, but not understanding it is a big issue!

Having already been defeated, but realizing what they faced was not Ji Jingqiu himself, but some unfathomable means, rendering a group of Heavenly Humans into silence.

As if sensing something off about the atmosphere in the hall.

The juniors who were conversing earlier slowly fell silent.

Only the Martial Artists from the Three Thousand Yanfu were discussing around Chang Sheng, debating who would be superior.

In the end, everyone still believed...

Ji Jingqiu had a greater chance of winning!

Although Chang Sheng had the record of surviving a challenge against Chi Ji, how his power ultimately stood, and the details of that battle, they didn’t witness directly.

However, Ji Jingqiu’s methods were thoroughly experienced by everyone,

Within no more than a hundred sessions, all their techniques and foundations were completely grasped by this monster, and he even leisurely guided them a few moves—such enlightenment, such talent, was unheard of!

Probably the True Saints in their youth were no more than this!

...

...

No matter how "Ji Jingqiu" dealt with his opponent, faced with the red, blue, black, white, and yellow five-colored brilliance, it was brushed away.

The five colors swirling, incredibly divine, nearly unsolvable.

Compared to the previous Four Virtues bearer with the Cosmic Light Fragments, it was not on the same level.

With Five Virtues protecting, Innate Protection, combined with the Five-Colored Divine Light brushing all things, Chang Sheng seemed to simultaneously wield the strongest shield and spear.

The two exchanged over a hundred sessions, still probing, finding each other’s foundations and faults.

All things counterbalance, and the Law Truth of the Dao is the same.

The reason his Five Virtues empowerment could be called invincible is due to the mutual complement of the Five Virtues.

The Five Virtues are: Tao Virtue, Holy Virtue, Merit, Yin Virtue, and Favor.

Those cultivating the Five Virtues Qi cannot violate the meanings encompassed by the Five Virtues, for example, a Martial Artist who cultivates Holy Virtue Qi must act honorably and openly; otherwise, using treacherous means would disperse their virtue and nullify their merit.

Despite the heavy restrictions, the effects of the Five Virtues are unparalleled.

With Holy Virtue, no skills attach;

Merit shields the body, no evil invades;

Tao Virtue is the source of all methods;

Favor protects, one does not fall into a Killing Tribulation;

Yin Virtue hides, life accompanies.

When the Five Virtues are united, only then Heaven and Earth cease them!

After exchanging several hundred rounds.

Chang Sheng furrowed his brows slightly, believing he had discerned the foundation of Ji Jingqiu’s Divine Skills.

Surprisingly, it was a mix of Big Dream and the Heavenly Demon Path, especially the latter—who knows where this guy managed to obtain it.
