Becoming a Deity from Planting the Bodhi Tree-Chapter 280 - 154: It’s getting interesting, it’s getting dangerous..._2

This sensation, it was as if he was completely naked, doused by a bucket of ice water from head to toe, and then an icy blade piercing straight through his brow, a chill capable of freezing time itself, spreading from head to toe, robbing him entirely of any capacity to resist!

At this moment.

Ji Jingqiu's breath surged, breaking free from the soul-sapping restraint of the blade. The Qi Force inside his body roared and howled, causing his bones to emit sounds as if they could no longer bear the strain, eventually converging into the long blade in his hand.

Green Master broke free from its sheath with an unstoppable force.

Along with a furious shout, Green Master transformed into a streak of lightning.

Heavy, fast, fierce!

The blade's radiance swept across all directions, shattering the net of blade lights woven by Longsa that was enough to pulverize any martial artist of the same rank!

Simultaneously, behind Ji Jingqiu, Blood Tiger slowly raised its head, those wild and crazed tiger eyes as if capable of reaching into the very soul of all spirits.

Merely in an instant, it dispersed the suppression of Blood Phoenix.

It was like a fierce tiger lying in the depths of the jungle, feigning sleep, allowing hunters to carefully lay a net of heaven and earth all around it.

When it awoke, with just a casual swipe of its paw, it tore the net to shreds, effortlessly destroying everything clean!

At this moment, it raised its head and roared, as if declaring who was the true master of this territory!

...

...

"Eh, what is this? Imagined Creation?"

Among those spectating the battle, one great figure exclaimed in surprise, looking at the Blood Tiger manifesting behind Ji Jingqiu, for a moment unable to discern whether it was a type of Qi Po created by combining visualization and blood, or something else.

"It looks quite like the Divine Evil of Luofeng Ancient Country, but this kid practices the genuine Federation Martial Arts, how could he have Divine Evil?"

Someone else spoke up, their tone similarly filled with confusion and befuddlement.

The so-called Divine Evil, akin to the Federation's Cultivation Body and Dharma Body, is the foundational martial arts pillar of Luofeng Ancient Country.

In the cultivation system of Luofeng Ancient Country, the younger generation, upon reaching the age of cultivation, will all go to the ancient battlefield in search of their Divine Evil, to fuse with themselves.

The Divine Evil will strengthen as the martial artist progresses, not only tempering the body but also refining the heart, and in the end, even condense a trace of divinity.

Such Divine Evil is often born from the bones of gods and the remains of all spirits.

That's why among the neighboring civilizations, Luofeng Ancient Country is the most bloodthirsty.

"No matter what it is, the feeling it gives isn't too great..." someone murmured in a low voice, "Shaped like a Blood Tiger, such ferocity, are we sure it's not the manifestation of the martial artist's inner nature?"

At this moment, Long Qingyang gave the person who spoke a look as if staring at an idiot.

As if to say, the disciples who step out from the Dragon Tiger Dojo manifest the shapes of dragons and tigers in their aura, isn't that reasonable?

The elder who had spoken earlier sneered: "Even if it is your Dragon Tiger Dojo's tiger-shaped Spiritual Image, when has it ever been so blood-red and overwhelming?"

Long Qingyang spoke lightly, "Ji Jingqiu has visited the Guardian Temple to offer his respects, perhaps the Guardian God took a fancy to him at first glance and bestowed something extra."

Long Qingyang said this with complete confidence.

Ji Jingqiu did indeed visit the Guardian Temple, and he took a spot from the dojo; as for the specifics, that was unknown.

But didn't representatives of the Four Directions God all head to their Dragon Tiger Dojo to pay homage?

The old man fell silent, for having been seen by the Divine Lord himself, any attempt to criticize Ji Jingqiu for having an innately bloodthirsty nature and impurities in his spiritual roots naturally became baseless.

The Guardian God not only presided over killing but was also a figure who detested evil and would brook no injustice.

Had Ji Jingqiu truly been naturally inclined towards malice and killing intent, rather than receiving the Divine Lord's favor, he would have likely been quelled on the spot in the temple.

Suddenly.

The situation changed abruptly.

A Heavenly Person powerhouse from Luofeng Ancient Country abruptly stood up, his gaze fixed intently on Ji Jingqiu in the field, leaning forward, but a hand was placed on his shoulder.

Long Qingyang's eyes were profound as he pressed down on the shoulder of this individual, who then turned his head, his pupils revealing a fierce and relentless coldness, as the struggle of wills between Heavenly Persons erupted in an instant.

"Quiet down, all of you. The younger generation is present, what kind of example are you setting."

A calm voice rang out. Although soft, it was like a gentle breeze sweeping away the rain, instantly dissipating the tense atmosphere that was on the verge of erupting.

A middle-aged man somehow stood among the crowd, like a towering mountain pressing down on everyone, causing all strife and conflicts to vanish.

Even the strongmen from the other three civilizations in attendance showed respect.

For this was a Grandmaster from the Federation, a seventh-tier powerhouse belonging to the top echelons of the Great Universe!

"Master Qin, when did you come back?" Yao Heshan rose to his feet and asked, "Was your journey to the Nine States not smooth?"

Upon hearing this, the ears of the strongmen from the three civilizations all but pricked up.

This Grandmaster had just returned from across the wasteland from the Nine States?!

Had the Federation just recently discovered a pathway to the Nine States, and now they had already opened a stable corridor capable of sending Grandmaster-level powerhouses deep into it?!

And how did this Grandmaster manage to evade the hunt of the Supreme from the Nine States?

The exploration of the Nine States by this side of the Great Universe had been stalling for years mainly because Grandmasters and above couldn't cross over and would face the hunting by the Supreme of the Nine States.

Qin Zhuxian said calmly, "Encountered two of the Supreme from the other side; couldn't beat them, so I ran back."

The crowd's expression turned solemn, noticing that he wasn't even slightly injured, nor was his breath disturbed, clearly indicating a composed withdrawal.

The martial arts of the Federation seemed stronger than they had anticipated...

...

In the arena.

Ji Jingqiu powerfully broke through Longsa's net of heaven and earth, his blade slashing away all restraints, not as an end, but as a beginning.
