Becoming a Deity from Planting the Bodhi Tree-Chapter 1222 - 433: The One Whom Heavenly Destiny Belongs To Is Me

Now, more than thirty years have passed, and this person's aura, under the worship of the increasingly powerful Federation citizens, has been tainted with a trace of impurity. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

At this rate, Li Yingtian might not last more than a thousand, ten thousand years before he falls completely into the abyss, corrupted by the thoughts of the masses, descending into chaos, with no chance of redemption.

Before that, having received the final gift from the Four Great Divine Masters, Li Yingtian remains the Federation's last defense in the Great Universe.

A thousand, ten thousand years...

This "time," is it left by Marshal Ji for himself, or for Ji Jingqiu?

After a thousand, ten thousand years, no matter who returns or who rises, the Federation will no longer need Li Yingtian.

Thinking of all things related to Marshal Ji, Ji Jingqiu couldn't help but let out a soft sigh.

——Seven becoming Saints is not as good as one achieving Transcendence.

The warning from Master He in the past still rings in their ears; they all need to guard against Marshal Ji's utter disregard for any cost.

Ji Jingqiu intervened, though it was just a spiritual clone, he still lit a thread of Wisdom Light, gifting it to Li Yingtian, helping him resist the onslaught of the mass's thoughts.

...

Ji Jingqiu walked into the deep alley; a Divine Temple was also hidden here, enshrining a faceless statue of Master He.

From a distance, Ji Jingqiu heard the noise of children inside.

Upon approaching, he saw a young man with a dignified demeanor in the back hall of the temple, leading a group of children in learning some basic moves, as a means of strengthening their bodies and laying a foundation for future Martial Arts practice.

Ji Jingqiu looked at the young man moving among the children, as if seeing time personified.

The young Cheng, once assigned by him to help with chores in the temple, had now reached the age where he could help others.

In Ji Jingqiu's eyes, Cheng had already reached the late stage of the Chains Realm.

Being in one's forties and in the late Chains Realm was not slow within the Federation, and Cheng's foundation was very solid; his Qi flow faintly showed the martial arts inheritance of Master He.

Ji Jingqiu raised his hand, melding the foresight and insights he gained in the Chaohua Realm into a unique Sword Scripture of his own, leaving a silent knife mark on the floor of the back hall under Cheng's feet.

He did not disturb Cheng who was correcting the children's posture, and his clone dissipated into Heaven and Earth.

...

The once western starry sky of the Federation now belonged to the western frontier of the Donghuang continent's starry sky.

All habitable planets had been relocated to this supercontinent's outer edge, as if creating a courtyard in the starry sky to accommodate many habitable planets.

Ji Jingqiu revisited old places, walking on streets and planets he had visited in the past, once again finding an old acquaintance.

This was a Martial Arts Academy, with a sign clearly labeled with Federation support.

Inside, most of the young boys and girls were dressed simply, indicating ordinary family backgrounds.

The dean here was named Cheng Xin.

Compared to more than thirty years ago, Cheng Xin's face had matured a lot; she hadn't maintained her youthful appearance like Ji Jingqiu and others, which would require reaching at least the Heart Image Realm, and Cheng Xin's realm had only progressed from True Seed to Divine Travel Realm.

In the frontier, even the Divine Travel Realm counted as a small expert.

Ji Jingqiu stood high in the sky, not meeting the old friend, but merely watching from afar.

Over thirty years later, the girl who once looked up to towering mountains had also become the immovable... pillar in others' eyes.

Ji Jingqiu looked up, and in one glance, he saw the miracles of heaven and earth and various stars.

He simply raised his hand, as if casually taking items from his home, capturing streams of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Mechanism from the Void, including one that was nine feet nine.

Not seeing his old friend for many years, seeing her live as she had wished was a gift in itself.

In the performance arena below.

Cheng Xin suddenly looked up, scanning the surroundings, seeing only vast clouds, and froze for a while.

"Dean! Is it true they say you once sparred with Marshal Ji?!"

"Of course it's true! Our place is a Martial Arts Academy strongly supported by the Federation, yet the dean is only Divine Travel Realm!"

The unruly chatter of the boys and girls brought Cheng Xin back to reality.

Listening to the mischievous laughter of some rascals, Cheng Xin squinted with a slightly dangerous expression, instantly silencing the crowd, revealing the significant authority Dean Cheng still held.

"You little rascals," Cheng Xin laughed and scolded, "always slacking off. I was just away for a moment, and you start acting up? Do you still want to leave this planet someday and head to the continent center, the Federation center?"

The boys and girls, regardless of background or age, were at the stage where they could best read people's "expressions," immediately realizing the dean wasn't truly angry, and they gathered around laughingly.

"Dean! Tell us the story of Marshal Ji!"

"What's there to tell, isn't it all written in the books?" Cheng Xin smiled and said, "If you really have promise, work hard to enter the central region, and maybe one day you'll see him on the road."

She paused, drawing out her voice:

"How about this, if any of you manage to enter the Federation's new generation focus sequence in the upcoming selection, I'll gift them a strand of the finest Heaven and Earth Spiritual Mechanism!"

Listening to the voices coming from behind, Ji Jingqiu couldn't help but laugh to himself, when did he become Marshal Ji?

The Federation did indeed intend to bestow this military rank upon him, but Ji Jingqiu politely declined.

The Federation did not require a new Marshal from the later generations in addition to the Seven Marshals.

And Ji Jingqiu did not need the glory of past figures upon him.
