Chapter 369: Chapter 269: The Phenomenon in the Yujing City Skies and Earth

In the secret chamber of the Demon Sect stronghold, a faint sandalwood scent permeated from the incense burner, enveloping the entire room in a haze of smoke. This extraordinary agarwood purged the mind of stray thoughts as soon as one took a whiff, as though clearing them all away at that moment.

An Jing sat cross-legged on a meditation cushion, entering a state of ethereal emptiness, his mind a complete blank, void of any thoughts.

This meditation lasted about half an hour, after which An Jing’s closed eyes slowly opened. His gaze returned to its usual placidity, looking as calm and undisturbed as a deep pond without a ripple.

A breath of foul air gently exhaled from his throat as layers of starlight swirled around An Jing. Before the Nameless Heart Scripture had been completed, the perfected Great Celestial Star Refining Body Technique was already set into motion.

An Jing murmured softly to himself as his True Qi began to circulate. His eyes slowly closed again, and as they did, the temperature within the secret room gradually began to rise.

An Jing held great anticipation for this completion.

What kind of terror would result from the fusion of today’s Buddhist, Daoist, and Demon Sect martial arts that all surpassed the Heavenly Martial Level?

The Nameless Heart Scripture could be considered the number one martial arts of today and, in An Jing’s eyes, was even the genuine method to immortality and the Dao.

Within the misty secret chamber shrouded in sandalwood smoke, white fumes began to spread, imparting a dream-like illusion to those who beheld it.

On the meditation cushion in the chamber, An Jing sat with his legs crossed, eyes firmly shut. Waves of True Qi surged toward him, threatening to engulf him entirely.

And this was just from the incomplete Nameless Heart Scripture.

An Jing’s expression was as calm as ever, revealing no sign of the changes around him; his consciousness was fully immersed in the completion of the Nameless Heart Scripture.

Perhaps because An Jing had practiced the Nameless Heart Scripture for many years, and only a part of the Jade Emperor Scripture was missing, the completion of it was not as difficult as he had imagined.

As the Nameless Heart Scripture operated, incorporating the meridian points of the Beidou Seven Stars Technique, the complete Nameless Heart Scripture started to slowly reveal itself.

If nothing unexpected happened, it would only take about two to three days to fully complete the Nameless Heart Scripture. An Jing, who had mastered three martial arts that transcended the Heavenly Martial level, would cause an immense shock if outsiders knew.

One has to understand that martial arts surpassing the Heavenly Martial level were the pinnacle of the current martial arts world, unattainable by ordinary Grandmasters. Even top Grandmasters could hardly touch on such martial arts, yet An Jing possessed three such arts and had fully integrated them.

Such a feat, in the eyes of many, was tantamount to courting death. However, fortunately for An Jing, who possessed the Earth Book and bore a great destiny, what seemed impossible to others was possible for him.

As An Jing’s completion of the Nameless Heart Scripture gradually got on the right track, the True Qi in the chamber became more and more vigorous. In time, the burning incense simply hissed and turned into ash, falling down under the pressure of such True Qi. Even ordinary Grandmaster experts would not dare to linger long, as the pervasive True Qi in the air could make them burst into blood mist.

As time passed, the Qi Mechanism emanating from An Jing’s body continued to strengthen, sending waves of boundless True Qi rolling out like ocean waves, creating a audible whooshing sound.

An Jing was already very familiar with the operating route of the Nameless Heart Scripture, while the route of the Beidou Seven Stars Technique required gradually exploring and mastering.

But as time went by, An Jing found a miraculous commonality between the two and began to merge them.

An Jing’s aura strengthened bit by bit.

In this silent cultivation, a day’s time blinked away.

After half a day, the concentration of True Qi inside the secret chamber had risen to a terrifying level. Moreover, since the chamber was completely sealed, with no Qi Mechanism spilling out, the Qi waves rolled tumultuously, and the True Qi was almost liquefying.

Within the secret chamber, various stone tables and chairs were gradually melting, turning into liquid that slowly dripped down and flowed within the room, occasionally bubbles would emerge and burst quietly, bringing with them a faint muffled sound.

No one could see such an astonishing scene.

Unknowingly, the stone bed made of stone, too, crumbled into dust under the high concentration of True Qi squeezing it, yet An Jing, who was seated at the center of it all, still showed no sign of opening his eyes, breathing steadily. The True Qi that would have turned an ordinary person to ashes due to its high concentration was now entering his body like two Qi dragons through his nostrils, continuously burrowing in.

An Jing seemed as if he had entered a state of mummification without any reaction, if not for the vast aura that could still be felt, rising ceaselessly.

In the midst of cultivation, the concept of time becomes incredibly blurred, so under such a state that resembled mummification, another day passed by imperceptibly.

During this imperceptible time, the Beidou Seven Stars Technique had already completed the missing pathways of the Nameless Heart Scripture, and An Jing was now ready for the first complete circulation. If he could fully run it, it would mean that the Nameless Heart Scripture was thoroughly complete.

An Jing silently recited the Nameless Heart Scripture, letting his True Qi begin to circulate along the complete route.

Boom!

The moment the True Qi began to circulate, the entire Dantian and Qi Sea trembled as if the earth and mountains were shaking.

An Jing hurriedly subdued the trembling, surprised in his heart.

And this was just the beginning, yet it had already caused such a big commotion!?

Outside the secret chamber, the originally clear skies of Yujing City were suddenly obscured by dark clouds. The world instantly darkened, fierce winds howled incessantly.

Amidst this turmoil, there were flashes of lightning, as if something terrifying was brewing.

This abrupt change made all the citizens look on in astonishment, their faces filled with confusion.

Zhao Qingmei, dressed in a light blue palace attire, exuding an airy and ethereal aura, stood in the courtyard with a book in her delicate hands. Her stunning and delicate features seemed to make the flowers around her lose their color.

“Hmm!?”

She, too, lifted her head at this spectacle, her brows instantly knitting together.

From those pitch-black clouds, she felt an unprecedented pressure that seemed even more majestic than the full force exerted by Nangong Weiping. It bore down on her like a mountain.

She had arrived in Yujing City the day before and was aware that An Jing had taken control of the city and obtained the Beidou Seven Stars Technique, and was now in seclusion with the complete Nameless Heart Scripture.

Yu Qiurong, standing next to her, also sensed something extraordinary and said softly, “Sect Hierarch, what is this!?”

Zhao Qingmei replied succinctly, “A natural phenomenon.”

“What! A natural phenomenon!?”

Yu Qiurong was greatly shocked, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.

A natural phenomenon occurs when the heavens and the earth produce strange occurrences due to certain changes. Hence it is called a natural phenomenon. However, in the long river of history, such phenomena are rare, with the most recent one occurring during the establishment of the Great Zhou Dynasty. It was rumored that the phenomenon was artificially orchestrated by the Grand Ancestor of the Great Zhou to consolidate his imperial power.

The previous occurrence of a natural phenomenon was when the Great Qin Dynasty slew the only True Dragon of the time, leading to such a phenomenon.

As one can imagine, how arduous it must be for such celestial phenomena to transpire; yet at this moment, it has indeed appeared.

Zhao Qingmei looked towards the direction of the secret chamber, thinking to herself, “It seems that my husband’s guess was not wrong; this ‘Nameless Heart Scripture’ might truly be an Immortal Law. Otherwise, how could it possibly draw out a celestial phenomenon?”

Yu Qiurong could not sense it, but Zhao Qingmei’s current cultivation had already reached the Heavenly Destiny Realm, only a step away from the Land Immortal Realm. She could clearly sense that the origin of the celestial phenomenon was right inside the secret chamber.

This celestial phenomenon was a blessing, but it could equally be a curse.

At this moment, An Jing was rising high in Great Yan, and now, attracting such a celestial phenomenon, he was likely to incur even greater suspicion from that person within the Imperial City.

But let them suspect. If it comes to it, let their suspicions become reality.

Zhao Qingmei simply didn’t care.

…….

The celestial phenomenon above Yujing City aroused the curiosity of the citizens, who were all quite astonished at the sight of the lightning and the thunder, and conversations about it filled the streets and alleys. This incident also startled many experts, who were far more aware than the ordinary people of the impact and terror of such a phenomenon.

An existence that could cause heaven and earth to quake—how astounding and terrifying was that?

Imperial City, Imperial Study Room.

At this moment, Zhao Xuening was dressed in a plain white gown. Beyond her beauty and dignified elegance, one could not help but sense an added aura of grandeur.

Standing before her was a Daoist, none other than the State Preceptor of Great Yan, Xiao Qianqiu.

Zhao Xuening, with her hands clasped behind her, said with a light smile, “State Preceptor, we meet again. I recall our last encounter was at a feast hosted by my Imperial Father. Perhaps you did not notice me at the time, but I have greatly admired you since.”

Xiao Qianqiu gave a respectful bow, saying, “The Daoist has made the Princess laugh.”

Now that the situation in Yujing was settled and Zhao Chongyin was dead, who did not know that this princess was the future Emperor of the Great Yan Dynasty? Xiao Qianqiu, having backed the wrong side, was unlikely to be killed—after all, the current state of Great Yan still required his support. But from now on, the Zhenyi Sect had lost the support of the Great Yan Court, and its national prestige had plummeted, which was almost a foregone conclusion.

Zhao Xuening waved her hand dismissively, “The State Preceptor is a backbone of Great Yan. Who could mock him?”

Xiao Qianqiu glanced at Zhao Xuening and seemed to understand something.

An Jing displayed such formidable strength that he could almost be called the first person under the Great Grandmasters. Such strength was truly terrifying, especially with the backing of the enormous Demon Sect, and within it, the likes of Zhao Qingmei, You Gai, Li Fuzhou, and other Grandmaster-level experts.

It’s no exaggeration to say that An Jing now held the power of half the Great Yan Dynasty in his hands and could easily overthrow the imperial authority.

Zhao Xuening spoke softly, “State Preceptor, you are a wise man, and so am I.”

Xiao Qianqiu shook his head, “The Daoist does not seem so.”

Zhao Xuening’s brows furrowed slightly, and a sharp light flashed in her eyes.

This fierce light exploded forth, containing a supremely powerful pressure that, coupled with the oppression of True Dragon Qi in this place, wielded immense pressure. Even a Grandmaster would tremble inside and feel their knees weaken.

But the person before her was Xiao Qianqiu, the recipient of the Mystical Sect’s founding ancestor’s legacy. Before An Jing and Zhao Qingmei appeared, he was the genius with the greatest chance to break free from his restraints.

Such robust cultivation!?

Xiao Qianqiu’s expression was untroubled, but surprise flickered in his heart.

From Zhao Xuening, he felt a strong and domineering surge of Force Qi assault him, obviously indicating that her cultivation was not nonexistent as the rumors stated, but rather profound.

Xiao Qianqiu bowed his hands in respect, “The Daoist has always known to act according to circumstances. Previously, the Zhenyi Sect was the National Religion of the Great Yan Dynasty, sharing both its glory and its trials. It shall be the same hereafter.”

Zhao Xuening withdrew her Qi Mechanism, speaking indifferently, “That’s good to hear. State Preceptor, if there’s nothing else, you may withdraw.”

Xiao Qian bowed once again and then left.

In this brief exchange, the two had reached a certain understanding.

Zhou Xianming watched Xiao Qianqiu leave and said with a smile, “The State Preceptor indeed is a wise man.”

Zhao Xuening replied coldly, “He simply understands his worth.”

An Jing didn’t kill Xiao Qianqiu because he did not wish to; it did not mean Zhao Xuening felt the same. But indeed, at this time, they still needed Xiao Qianqiu and the Zhenyi Sect.

Zhou Xianming had a thought and said, “Your Highness, you revealed your cultivation in front of Xiao Qianqiu. Will this not…”

Zhao Xuening spoke confidently, “Rest assured, Xiao Qianqiu will not speak of it. He knows what he should and shouldn’t say.”

Zhou Xianming nodded. Although Xiao Qianqiu was not the type to hide his brilliance and bide his time, he was cunning enough to know what to speak and what to keep silent about.

Just then, dark clouds enveloped the outside, dense as molten iron, with the glow of crisscrossing lightning flaring within.

Zhou Xianming felt the oppression and exclaimed, “A celestial phenomenon!?”

Though young, he was the leading scholar of Confucianism at the time and clearly understood what this meant.

Zhao Xuening’s brow twisted, immediately causing the Great Hall to chill, giving an impression of breathlessness.

After a short while, the eunuch Bai Mei hurried in, “Your Highness, this celestial phenomenon seems to originate from where An Jing resides.”

Upon hearing this, the entire Great Hall fell silent.

It was some time before Zhou Xianming spoke softly, “Brother An…”

What a celestial phenomenon represented, no one was ignorant of; otherwise, the Grand Ancestor of the Great Zhou Dynasty would not have used such a phenomenon to solidify his imperial power.

The fissure that had been created seemed to grow wider and more difficult to mend by the day.

Suddenly, Zhao Xuening clapped her hands and laughed, “Excellent, I shall soon ascend the throne and proclaim myself Emperor. He has brought me a celestial phenomenon just in time, such a timely downpour.”
